Bob Holcomb, 67, has brought his skill to make tie dye clothing to Centerville when he opened Tie Dye Shop and Boutique nine weeks ago at 1735 S. 18th St.
Tie Dye Shop & Boutique offers short and long sleeve shirts, hoodies, shorts, tank tops, hats, purses, baby and kid's clothing, ladies fashions, jewelry, antiques, back packs and duffel bags. And almost of the items are tie-dyed by Holcomb.
Holcomb, born and raised in Washington state, after discharge from the U.S. Navy in 1964, found himself in the Haight Ashbury district in San Francisco awash in the hippie era where he lived for a short time. Holcomb said he then lived in Oregon, Arizona, back to Oregon and then Iowa.
Holcomb, now retired, came to Iowa in 2010 where he resided in an RV at Doggs RV Park near Rathbun Lake while looking for a house to purchase. Holcomb said he came to Iowa because of inexpensive property and lower tax rates.
The house he found is at 1735 S. 18th St. where he opened his business.
Holcomb said the tie-dying process is time consuming and requires a lot of water. His last water bill was for $200, he said.
Tie-dye 101 start to finish eight hours: Wash and dry the item to size it, Holcomb said. Soak it in cold water, ring dry and place on plastic. Now, manipulate the object to create the desired tie dye design and use rubber bands to hold it all together. Apply dyes then place the item in a plastic bag to keep it from drying out and bake it.
"In the summer time I lay them out on the sidewalk or the driveway and let the sun bake them," Holcomb said. "And in the winter time you can put them in the oven."
Holcomb said after four-six hours the heat sets the dye into the fabric. Holcomb washes the tie dye item in warm water and dries it before it becomes a finished product.
Holcomb then recommends customers wash each tie dye item with like colors the next couple washes.
Holcomb called his business a hobby that got out of hand.
"In the 1970s I did my first tie dye and this is what's come of it," Holcomb said of his business venture in Centerville. "It started off as a hobby and it just got out of hand and this is what we ended up with."
Holcomb said people are starting to get back into tie dye clothing.
"There's a lot of interest in it," Holcomb said. "And not just in Centerville but all over the country. People are starting to look at tie dies."
Holcomb's customer's ages range from the late 30s to early 60s, but he said he does see a few younger customers.
"A few of the kids are buying them but there's more adults buying tie dies," Holcomb said, because adults remember the 1960s and 1970s.
Holcomb said when customers walk into his store they are surprised by the selection and prices.
"Once they're in the store then they are pleasantly surprised by what's being offered to them," Holcomb said. "There is no sticker shock for them."
Tie Dye Shop & Boutique, 1735 S. 18th St., Centerville, is open 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday and it does accept credit and debit cards, cash and checks. The owner can be reached by calling (641) 895-9619.

The Associated Press
MANHATTAN, Kan. — Collin Klein piled up more than 300 yards of offense before leaving in the third quarter with an undisclosed injury, and No. 3 Kansas State remained unbeaten with a 44-30 victory over Oklahoma State on Saturday night.
Klein had thrown for 245 yards and run for 64 more before sneaking in for his 50th career rushing touchdown with 9:47 left in the third quarter. The Heisman Trophy front-runner didn't return to the field on the Wildcats' next offensive series.
Oklahoma State's Wes Lunt also left with an injury after throwing his third interception in the third quarter. The freshman quarterback, who missed six weeks with a knee injury earlier this year, threw for 184 yards and a touchdown before giving way to Clint Chelf.
By that point, the Wildcats (9-0, 6-0 Big 12) simply had to protect a 38-17 lead.
Allen Chapman picked off three passes and returned one 29 yards for a touchdown, John Hubert had a pair of TD runs, and Tyler Lockett returned a kickoff 100 yards for another score as Kansas State kept alive its hopes of playing for a national championship.
The Wildcats entered the weekend No. 2 in the BCS standings behind Alabama.
Chelf finished 16 of 27 for 233 yards and a touchdown for the Cowboys (5-3, 3-2), who should know something about playing late-season spoiler to a team in title contention.
Oklahoma State was ranked No. 2 when it lost to Iowa State late last season, and got shut out of the BCS title game.
This one was just about as wild as last season's matchup in Stillwater, when the Cowboys held on in the final minutes after the teams combined for 32 fourth-quarter points.
Oklahoma State struck first when Lunt hit Austin Hays for a 54-yard touchdown reception, but the Wildcats came back with 17 unanswered points — Hubert's two touchdown runs were sandwiched around the first of Anthony Cantele's three field goals.

A Bookprint is the list of five books that leave an indelible mark on our lives, shaping who we are and who we become.
You are what you read.
Winner of Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture for "Ray" at the NAACP Image Awards in 2005 and nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for Best Actress in the film "Lift" in 2002, Kerry Washington is a versatile and fearless actress who has built an impressive list of credits in a relatively short amount of time. She garnered critical acclaim for her roles in "The Last King of Scotland" opposite Forest Whitaker for which she was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture at the NAACP Image Awards in 2007, "The Dead Girl" opposite Marcia Gay Harden and Brittany Murphy, and in "Lakeview Terrace" starring opposite Samuel L.

Proper etiquette demands belaying topless and bringing a bottle of wine to the crag. I don't make the rules, people. That's just how it is.
the regulars at s.t. use and like chalk
I am utterly astonished at a majority of the posts on this thread. Much of what the original poster stated is just about standard in the Australian climbing community. To people outside of the USA, this forum paints a very very bad picture of the attitude and morals of the USA climbing community.
Oh, also, I forgot. Lol at this thread.
Climbing Etiquette: Try not to be a dick
Aeryn: Can I tell you what I hate? Sharks. Sharks can tare families apart. But they're also so majestic. They are beautiful creatures. But they're also so ferocious! So ferocious! One of natures cruel jokes, I guess.
dude, that was a haiku...
Don't leave hand prints? I'm not going to only chalk my fingers while climbing... I try to use less on a jugfest but on all other climbs I'm dunking my hands into my chalk. If you want seclusion just hike further into the wilderness. Don't expect everyone to bypass a perfectly good site, which happens to be beside yours, if they want to camp there. I don't understand how not being quiet = being a shithead. I boulder quite a bit and one of my favorite aspects of the sport is cheering on fellow climbers and have never been agitated from another crowd trying to get someone psyched while they're climbing. I also do this when I'm roped up. So if I'm a shithead for trying to get a buddy motivated to crush his project or pushing through a crux so be it.
As of yesterday we've adopted a new strategy for ENCOURAGING our fellow climbers past the crux section of a climb. Today, we are bringing low power BB guns to the crag. That's right, something along the lines of a Red Ryder, not powerful enough to break the skin, but powerful enough to get your attention not to fall.
Is it a dick move for one person to lead a sport route, rap down and clean it. Then let the second lead it-maybe not get the route the first try and take a while to finish the route--while people a waiting on the route?
The question is more geared to making the people wait for the second person to lead, which might take a while. It would b faster for the second person to climb without leading.
If people are climbing too slow on your route, just take a 5-wood and whack one right into them.

HUMBLE, Texas - Life, they say, is what happens while you're making plans. Vernon Reed hadn't planned on living here, but it's where life brought him.
Disabled and with medical bills soaring through the roof, he moved to Bender Hollow Apartments in Humble 10 months ago to save money, and because he thought it was safe. After all, the sign outside the leasing office reads, "We love our residents."
But three days ago, someone kicked in his bedroom window as he and his wife watched TV.
"It was like an explosion. A big boom," said Reed. "And I told my wife to turn the light out and get on the floor."
Reed called police and waited with a gun in one hand and his Bible in the other.
"I was praying that I wouldn't have to use the gun," said Reed.
He didn't, but the following day he said someone rummaged through the box of medicine that had been delivered to his doorstep in broad daylight. He's not the only one here who's concerned.
"We're on our own," said resident Lena Dickerson. "In this situation we're completely alone."
Some residents said management has dropped the ball when it comes to security, and they point to the front gate as an example. They say it hasn't been working since November, allowing people to freely come and go whether they are residents or not.
The manager of the apartment complex declined comment.
"It's got me scared," said Reed. "It's got me on edge."

Together with your professors and many friends, who love Samford and care about you, we form a community of learning and faith that is like no other.

Extend your hand to build lifelong friendships with those around you. Open your heart to meaningful paths of service. Invite God to nurture your soul.
May you be blessed on each step of your journey.

Special to The Globe
Sarah Williams got all the fuel she needed as an observer Friday afternoon.
Knowing a Lincoln doubleheader sweep would be fatal to the Missouri Southern softball season, the 5-foot-8 freshman right-hander was more than motivated while tossing a six-hit shutout.
Williams' gem allowed the Lions to salvage a split — Lincoln claimed a 4-3 victory in 8 innings in the opener before Southern earned a 5-0 game two victory — in a MIAA doubleheader at Lea Kungle Field.
The Wentzville, Mo., product struck out five, walked two and threw 59 strikes in 97 pitches during seven innings of work to improve to 7-6 on the season.
Starr McLeod, a senior right-hander from Girard, Kan., took the loss, allowing all five Southern runs in just over four innings of work.
"I was focused on limiting the walks; I didn't want to give them any free ones," Williams said. "I wanted to work ahead in the count. I had a couple of pitches that we not working as well, but I was able to throw the curve for strikes to get ahead and the changeup kept them off balance."
She was tested in the top of the sixth as Lincoln sent its 3-4-5 batters to the plate. Kristina Hein singled to right, Erin Sommerer walked and Brianna Akers singled to left to load the bases with no outs.
Williams calmly worked out of the jam getting Clair Lorenz to ground into a 5-2 fielder's choice, struck out Shantae Duren on a 1-2 changeup and then got McLeod to ground out to third to kill the threat.
"I have all the confidence in the world in my defense, I know they've got my back," Williams said.
Added Southern coach Bill Gray, "That's Sarah, she's tough as nails. She fights, as long as she's not fighting with herself. Her biggest opponent is herself. She will go out there and even when things are going good, but not good enough for her, sometimes she will take herself out of it."
Southern (23-23 overall, 10-14 MIAA) gave Williams the lead in the first when Alana Hester singled, advanced to second on an error, moved to third on a Brooke Swadley sacrifice and scored on Shelby Romines sacrifice fly to center.
Four straight hits to start the fifth — singles by Dawn Grass, Haley Pypes, Brooklyn Farrell and a double by Michala Wood — led to four runs. Farrell's single was good for an RBI, Wood drove in a run with her extra base hit and Chloe Brown grounded out for an RBI before Wood scored on a wild pitch to open a 5-0 advantage.
As satisfying as the second-game victory was for Southern, the loss in the opener was just as disappointing for Gray.
"It's been this way all year, either we win the first one and don't take care of business in the second game, or get beat in game one, then play hard in game two and get the win," Gray said. "It was our first loss in extra innings all year and it was something we hung our hat on all season."
Lincoln took a 2-0 lead on wild pitch and a throwing error in the second.
Southern got to Blue Tigers pitcher Clair Lorenz in fifth when Williams doubled to left and scored on Farrell's single to center for a 2-1 game.
Lincoln got one back in the top of the sixth when three walks loaded the bases leading to Sam Kircher's RBI single.
Trailing 3-1, Southern's Chloe Brown, a junior left fielder who had five extra base hits (all doubles) this season jacked a solo home run to lead off the sixth. Alana Hester, using her speed, generated the tying run after getting hit by a pitch, advanced all the way to third on a sacrifice by Swadley and then scored on Romine's sacrifice bunt.
Kircher's sacrifice fly to left scored the game winner for Lincoln (14-17-1, 6-12 MIAA) in the top of the eighth while Southern got the tying run to second with two outs in bottom of the inning but failed to convert.
The Lions, still in the race for the MIAA postseason, will host Central Missouri next Friday in a 4 p.m. doubleheader before closing the regular season with a home doubleheader Saturday with Southwest Baptist.

Undoubtedly, the Daleks are the most brutal master race is all of the universe and have now achieved the form of a pepperoni pizza. They will only follow the primary order of death, but probably wont be delivered on time.
Order my destruction! Obey! *Obey*! O-BEY!
On the left you will see the House Targaryen three-headed dragon sigil pizza and on the right the House Stark direwolf sigil pizza by pizzacrafter shiny-kiyoko. The dragon is made from spinach the the wolf from olives. Equally as delicious, yet both long to sit at the iron throne residing in your guts.
Octopuses, octopi, or octopodes... freakin' cephalopods deserve to be pizzacrafted into awesomely delicious looking pizzas that can latch onto your face with pepperoni suction cups. Just what you wanted.

One of the last and fiercest of the dragons found in middle-earth, the Smaug pizza hordes pepperoni, cheese and pesto treasures.
The Batman symbol is one of DC's most iconic and sacred superhero logos. So pizzacraft it!!! Seriously, I don't know what is wrong with me, but I love pizza that is made into geeky shapes. Kinda like dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets. Somehow, they are just BETTER.
I will take my pizza with some power, wisdom and extra courage please! This simple, yet awesomely pizzacrafted triforce pizza was baked up by linklunatic13. Good work pal, I am CERTAIN that once it was out of the oven you raised it above your head and made your wish.

To be or not to be ... pregnant: That is the question facing the writers of Parenthood as the show prepares to kick off its final season this fall. While the Season 5 finale wrapped up many of the year's ongoing story lines, so much so that it made star Peter Krause worry about a renewal, there was one huge cliff-hanger left unanswered: Is Amber (Mae Whitman) expecting? Aside from the hotly debated question of how she and on-and-off love Ryan (Matt Lauria) could have even had sex in his hospital bed in the first place — we're with you, Ray Romano — Amber was spotted buying a pregnancy test in the final act. While the writers begin to decide where the final 13 episodes will take the Braverman clan, we thought we'd help them out by devising a pro-con list of whether Amber...read more

Sarah Braverman's relationship status has been complicated pretty much as long as Parenthood has been on the air.
Whether it's her on-and-off (and on-and-off) relationship with Mark Cyr (Jason Ritter), her messy work romance with Hank (Ray Romano), or her recent flirty fling with her neighbor Carl (Josh Stamberg), Sarah's love life has never been truly stable. But just when Sarah (Lauren Graham) seemed to be heading in the right direction — i.e. picking her work over a guy — Mark returns on Thursday's episode (10/9c, NBC) to shake things up again.
Torture! Clones! Betrayal! Sexting! And just sex!

Question: I'm enjoying The Blacklist thus far and would watch it for James Spader's performance alone, but I'm also enjoying the stories as well. NBC is sticking to a formula that has worked before, albeit on a sister network. The intriguing loner, at odds with a government agency, solving the case of the week with the help of his associates, with a through story that's addressed for a few minutes at the start and end of each episode, just enough to keep the serial nature of the story going. Am I the only one who thinks that The Blacklist is Burn Notice with a network budget? If the show is successful, NBC will end up as an expensive version of USA Network. Not there's anything wrong with that. — Rick

The wife cooks every year or so, and there is no exaggeration there. Every night we eat out.
That's why we live in Placentia and can't afford Pacific Palisades.
It's not that she can't cook; it's just that we've been married for 40 years. She thinks when someone says they are going to be treated like a queen she doesn't have to load the dishwasher.

Four draft into the New York Islanders rebuild, the team's depth chart shows a large crop of young prospects is getting close to maturity.
Thought this might be fun theory/discussion for this time of year. The Islanders system may be two key players shy of contention, a number one defenseman and a big physical right-winger. The plan...
The New York Islanders have added several minor pros and a few prospects who could push for a roster spot come training camp.

SAG-AFTRA Dallas-Fort Worth Local is saddened by the loss of "the voice of football" and union member, Pat Summerall, who passed away at the age of 82 of cardiac arrest in Dallas. With his deep, resonant voice, Pat was a large figure on the Texas sports broadcasting scene. Through the course of his career, he delivered the details on 16 Super Bowls, the Masters and the U.S. Open tennis tournament among other events.
"Whenever Pat Summerall called a game everything felt elevated, and a game played by grown men became a clash between noble adversaries," said Dallas-Fort Worth Local President Brent Anderson. "Through Pat Summerall we discovered the inherent drama in the sport - the determination and sheer physical will of the players as they battled one another in search of victory."
Pat joined AFTRA in 1960 and SAG in 1976. He was an active member of the Chicago, New York and Dallas-Fort Worth Locals. Before that, Pat played 10 NFL seasons from 1952 to 1961 with the Chicago Cardinals and New York Giants, but it was in his second career that he became a voice familiar to generations of sports fans, not only those of the NFL. He was part of the CBS broadcast of the inaugural Super Bowl in Los Angeles on Jan. 15, 1967. A Southlake resident during his final years, our DFW community has lost a sportscasting legend who will be greatly missed.
Our condolences go out to the Summerall family.

How Will the SCOTUS Handle Marriage Equality?
The U.S. Supreme Court may decide as early as Friday which of the many cases involving marriage equality under appeal that they will hear. Chris Geidner has a rundown of all the various cases they could take on, which are the most likely, and what all the scenarios are for how they will handle them.
First, there is the appeal of California's Prop 8, which was declared unconstitutional by both the district and appeals courts. Second, there are a number of appeals of the Defense of Marriage Act, particularly Section 3, which has been struck down by several federal district courts in different cases, and by two of the appeals courts. Geidner notes that at least one of the DOMA appeals is almost certainly going to be granted cert, but the Prop 8 case is kind of a toss up — they could accept it or not accept it, but doing so will require them to engage the question of whether bans on same-sex marriage are constitutional directly. Here are the four possibilities he lays out:
• The court takes multiple DOMA cases and the Proposition 8 case. This outcome would be the "all in" option, and it would make clear that at least four justices want the court to resolve the legal questions surrounding these issues, from what level of scrutiny that laws classifying people based on sexual orientation should be given (see more about this here) to whether gay couples have a constitutional right to marry. (The DOMA cases also feature the unusual circumstances, in place since February 2011, of the Obama administration opposing the law's constitutionality and the House Republican leadership defending the law.)
• The court takes one DOMA case, while holding the other DOMA cases pending that decision, and takes the Proposition 8 case as well. This is not very different from the first possibility, although the choice of one DOMA case over another could be seen as narrowing the type of argument about the law that the court would like to hear. More likely though, it would simply be a sign of the justices having picked a case in which Justice Elena Kagan, who served as the top appellate lawyer in the Obama administration before joining the court and may choose to recuse herself from one or more of the DOMA cases because of that, can participate.
• The court takes a DOMA case (or multiple DOMA cases) and holds the rest of the cases, including Proposition 8, pending the outcome of the DOMA case. This prospect, advanced as a possibility by Georgetown law professor Nan Hunter, could be taken by a cautious court, wanting first to resolve some general questions — including the level of scrutiny to be applied to sexual orientation classifications — before acting on the other, more direct, question about whether same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry that is raised in the Proposition 8 challenge. This, as with taking the Proposition 8 case, would delay when same-sex couples in California might be able to marry.
• The court takes a DOMA case (or multiple DOMA cases), but denies certiorari in the Proposition 8 case. This option, once considered by advocates to be the most likely possibility, would lead to same-sex couples being able to marry in California within days. The Ninth Circuit's ruling in the case did not broadly resolve the marriage question, instead holding that Proposition 8 was unconstitutional because it took back rights formerly held by Californians. As there are other cases in the legal pipeline about same-sex couples marriage rights that could make their way to the Supreme Court, the court could decide to let the narrow Ninth Circuit decision stand.
I think the third option is the most likely, especially given Chief Justice Roberts' preference for a court that acts incrementally rather than in broad strokes. I would not be surprised if he were to argue in conference that the court must first settle the question of what level of scrutiny the lower courts must apply to cases involving sexual orientation, then let the lower courts apply that standard and see where things end up before the Supreme Court should get involved in answering the more direct questions.

Lockport Union-Sun & Journal — I have already started living vicariously through my grandson and he is only six months old. We were watching some tours of Disneyworld on the Travel Channel and it reminded me that I promised my family that we would start going to Disneyworld every year once the baby gets old enough to enjoy it. I suggested that he was old enough now, but was told that four years old is probably a more reasonable timeframe.
We all go through at least two reboots in our life and we need to take full advantage of them. For some people, rebooting means trying to get things right the second and third time around. For those of us who never grew up, it means two more chances to do all of that cool stuff all over again.
I grew up in the 1970s and had, what I considered to be, the happiest of childhoods. I was a child of pop culture and I drank it up like it was water. I was glued to my television constantly, I had all of the home computer and video game systems when they first came out, I went to all of the trendy places and I even had a pair of Jordache jeans. Don't judge me unless you think that you looked better in your Jordache jeans . . . which you didn't.
I actually should say that my mom made sure that I had all of that stuff. I had the Evel Knievel toys everyone wanted and I was always ready to race Big Wheels in the street and risk certain injury. I even had my own fistfight with the pavement, which I lost. That was the first, and only, time I ever tried riding my bike with no hands.
So I went through college, made the mistakes that young people make and then finally married the right girl. How did I know that my wife is the right girl? My mother told me. When it comes to making the right decisions in life, it pays to be a mama's boy. It took me a few years and a lot of dumb mistakes to figure that out, but I eventually got it right.

A 4-year-old girl was killed in a wreck on an icy bridge Tuesday evening east of Hopkinsville.
The wreck occurred on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Way at around 6 p.m., said local police.
The child, Brooklyn Coleman, was a passenger in the back seat of a sport-utility vehicle that lost control while crossing a bridge that was covered with ice. The SUV left the road and struck a guardrail.
Brooklyn was pronounced dead at the scene.
The SUV was being driven by Amber K. Coleman, 29, of Hopkinsville. Another passenger in the vehicle was 29-year-old Brian F. Baker also Hopkinsville.
Amber Coleman was treated for non-life-threatening injuries at Jennie Stuart Medical Center, while Baker sustained no serious injuries.
Police said it appears Brooklyn was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash. Both Amber Coleman and Brian Baker were wearing seatbelts.
It's unclear if any charges will be filed.

The Tribune-Star
If just one player had to be chosen that embodies how far the Indiana State football program has progressed since 2008, you could hardly do worse than to pick senior inside linebacker Aaron Archie.
Archie arrived in Terre Haute in 2008. It was Trent Miles' first season, the future of the program was in doubt, and Memorial Stadium's worn-out turf had more threads and seams in it than a crazy women's quilt.
Unfortunately, Archie was the last victim of that turf. During the fall Blue-White game, he got caught in one of those dreaded thread on an interception and tore his ACL. He sat out what would have been his freshman campaign due to injury.
"I remember that day like it was yesterday, right over there on that 20-yard line," said Archie, standing near the spot where the injury occurred. "It was going into the end zone and tore my ACL. It hurt me. I was going back to my home city. I was shocked."
The uncertain and unfortunate situation that Archie had committed to could have eaten him up inside or caused him to transfer, but Archie took a leap of faith.
Four years later, he's part of one of the best linebacking corps in the Football Championship Subdivision.
"I believed in everything coach Miles said [in 2008]. He said a change would come and I focused on it. I took it in … and look where we are now," Archie said.
Archie — a Missouri Valley Football Conference first teamer in 2011 and ISU's leading tackler with 122 — is joined in the middle of ISU's three-linebacker set by Jacolby Washington.
Washington — a MVFC second-teamer in 2011 — came a year later than Archie, but has been a starter since 2009, just as Archie has been since he recovered from his knee injury.
Miles knows he's got talent to burn in the middle of the ISU defense. With talent and experience comes expectation … and Miles has perhaps higher expectations for the linebackers than he does for any other unit on the team.
"Those two dudes have played a lot of football. They bring a lot of experience and leadership. They should be the strength of our defense, they should be the strength of our football team," Miles said.
Given their experience, running the defense for Archie and Washington is akin to being on autopilot in the best possible sense of the term. Both have excellent pursuit instincts and speed. They combine their raw talent with a knowledge of ISU's scheme that's second-to-none on the team.
"I can know the plays before the coaches even tell me. I've been in this defense since it started. I can call the defenses myself. I know what each position does. I have to be the quarterback of the defense. I have to do these things," Archie said.
Archie and Washington had Ryan Roberts as their Sam linebacker mate for the last two years, but Roberts graduated. Taking his spot is senior Dillon Painter, who has played semi-regularly during his first three seasons. Archie called the linebacker threesome the Tripod.
"Dillon came in as a safety and he brings a lot of speed and physicalness to the table. Dillon helps us out big time. We put it together as a unit," Washington said.
Experienced depth past ISU's starters isn't in large supply. ISU lists several players as "linebackers" who line up in a down position akin to a defensive lineman. Some — Zakee Bashir, Josh Scott and Connor Underwood being the most experienced — could play in upright position if needed.
But past that, there isn't anyone else experienced. Kendall Walker is a redshirt freshman that could contribute. Miles said ISU will take a long look at true freshman Tarris Batiste, listed as a defensive back on ISU's official roster.
"Tarris Batiste is someone we feel is as talented as anyone. He just needs to keep developing," Miles said.
But the success of the linebackers and ISU's promising defense comes back to its experienced corps of Archie and Washington. Both have come a long ways towards establishing ISU's program, but Archie cautions younger teammates that none of what he and Washington have accomplished should be taken for granted.
"I tell the guys everyday that we came from the bottom of the totem pole. We were the laughingstock of the nation. I tell the guys everyday that we came from nothing and now everyone thinks we're something, but we still have to keep that chip on our shoulder," Archie said.
ISU Linebackers
Projected starters — Aaron Archie, Jacolby Washington, Dillon Painter.
Reserves — Kendall Walker, Jess Harris, Ian Allen, Jamar Brown, Tarris Batiste (listed as a DB).
True freshmen (may or may not be redshirted) — Caleb Cox, Beau Shields, Ahmad Smith, George Stone.
Note — Some ISU players listed on roster as linebackers were included in defensive line preview as they line up in down position.
Player to watch — Dillon Painter, 6-2, Sr.: While Archie and Washington are established veterans, Painter takes over for graduated Ryan Roberts. Painter has plenty of experience, having had 39 tackles in 2010 and 10 in 2011. Painter flies to the ball, much as Roberts did, and is an aggressive playmaker.
Analysis — Even when ISU was at its lowest ebb as a program, it always managed to have solid linebackers and 2012 is no different. Archie and Washington have been mainstays for their entire Sycamore careers and they form a fearsome tandem in the middle. Painter is also experienced. As with other ISU defensive units, experienced depth is minimal, so to maintain serve and realize their potential, ISU's linebackers need to stay healthy.

Feb. 22, 2012
By: Brandon Mellor, Seminoles.com Senior Writer
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- One game at a time.
It's cliche but it's the mantra preached by Florida State men's basketball coach Leonard Hamilton and practiced by his players. And at 11-2 in the Atlantic Coast Conference, winners of 10 of their last 11 and 4-0 against conference schools in the state of North Carolina, it's worked for the 15th-ranked Seminoles.
Outside of a loss at Boston College when FSU (19-7, 10-2 ACC) overlooked the league's then last-place team and the forgettable conference opener at Clemson, the 'Noles have done a good job during ACC play in seizing each moment.
And when No. 5 Duke (20-4, 7-2) rolls into town for a 7 p.m. game Thursday, the moment couldn't be any bigger.
In what is expected to be one of the biggest -- if not the biggest -- crowds in FSU men's basketball history, the 'Noles and Blue Devils will compete for first place in the ACC standings and a guaranteed first-round bye in next month's ACC Tournament. To the victor also goes bragging rights (FSU would go 2-0 against Duke on the year) or revenge (the Blue Devils would pay back FSU for its buzzer-beater defeat at the hands of Michael Snaer earlier in the season).
But despite the national hype and palpable buzz on Florida State's campus, Hamilton is quick to point out that the mantra remains the same.
"In reality, it's one game," Hamilton said. "But I'm sure that from a national recognition, it would mean a lot more from a recruiting base and just exposure base to be successful against them. But right now ... we just want to finish this season.
"It would mean an awful lot to us to keep pace with the teams we compete with for the ACC title."
Even though they won at Cameron Indoor in late January, FSU needed that Snaer 3-pointer to pull of the upset. Had FSU's junior guard missed, Duke's Austin Rivers would have been the hero as his lay-up with 4.9 seconds left had given the Blue Devils a brief lead.
As one of the top players in the conference, limiting Rivers' penetration into the lane and outside shooting will be critical if FSU wants to grab its 12th league win. The task of slowing down Rivers will go to several of Florida State's guards.
"[Rivers] can do a lot of things," 'Noles sophomore Ian Miller said. "He's got the pull-up. He can get to the rim. We're just going to have to play team defense ... play hard defense and I think we can slow everybody down."
As if fans needed any more motivation to attend Thursday's game, Best Buy will be giving away a 42-inch Sharp television set to a lucky fan that arrives early. All fans that enter the Donald L. Tucker Center before 6:30 will be eligible.

Media Coverage of Bryce Drew's Hiring
Thursday, May 19, 2011Since the dual announcements on the Valparaiso University campus Tuesday morning of the hiring of Bryce Drew to fill the position of men's basketball head coach following the retirement of Dr. Homer Drew, the move has resulted in a multitude of media coverage nationally, regionally and locally.
Even prior to the official announcement Tuesday morning, speculation about the impending move began spreading, leading to a spot among ESPN.com's top headlines Monday evening. Then, following Tuesday's announcement, Bryce Drew was featured on ESPN's flagship show, SportsCenter, via a call-in interview. The hiring also earned a mention on the "Big Finish" segment of ESPN talk show Pardon the Interrupion, where co-host Tony Kornheiser called the move "a perfect choice" and jokingly referred to Valparaiso men's basketball as a "Drew-nasty."
Newspapers nationwide picked up the story of Bryce's hire and Homer's retirement thanks to a comprehensive recap of the proceedings from the Associated Press. The speculation about the move and then the official announcement also led to great deals of coverage in Northwest Indiana's two main newspapers: the Northwest Indiana Times and the Post-Tribune. Mark Lazerus of the Post-Tribune and Paul Oren of the NWI Times were there from start to finish, covering every angle of the announcement:
Post-Tribune – 5/16 - Homer Drew to retire at Valpo; Bryce will take over
5/17 – Homer Drew passes the torch to his son, Bryce
This son also rises
Still no plans for Baylor-Valpo showdown
Homer Drew's rivals react to his retirement
Mark Lazerus column – There's so few like him
NWI Times – 5/16 - Valpo coach Homer Drew to announce retirement; his son Bryce to take over
Bryce Drew has new challenge to conquer
Paul Oren column – Homer Drew's legacy goes beyond the basketball court
5/17 – Homer Drew hands Valpo coaching reins to son Bryce
Longtime coach Homer Drew will remain with university as associate athletic director
Incoming recruits are all on board with the coaching change for next season
Paul Oren column – The time is now for Bryce Drew
The NWI Times website also featured a video piece, talking with both Bryce and Homer Drew, as well as former Crusader guard Howard Little. Both the Post-Tribune and the NWI Times hosted photo galleries of Tuesday's press conference on their respective websites, while the official Valparaiso University Flickr account also has a gallery from Tuesday's proceedings.
Tuesday's press conference also drew the attention of the South Bend area, where Homer Drew spent the first 12 seasons of his 34-year coaching career guiding first Bethel College and then IU-South Bend. Both WNDU and Fox 28 had crews at the press conference for on-location pieces. In addition, the entire press conference was streamed live and is now archived on the Horizon League Network, while Horizon League senior associate commissioner Bill Benner authored a Perspectives column on the league's website regarding the coaching change.
Bryce Drew has also made a number of appearances on sports talk radio shows over the past few days to talk about his hiring. Wednesday morning, he joined The Grady and Big Joe Show on ESPN 1070 The Fan out of Indianapolis. Thursday morning saw Bryce talk on a pair of nationally syndicated sports talk radio shows, as he first called in to The Zakk & Jack Show on Fox Sports Radio. Bryce then appeared on the Tim Brando Show, whose namesake host actually was on the call for the Crusaders' Sweet Sixteen game in 1998 against Rhode Island, on Sporting News Radio.
Valparaiso fans in the Chicagoland area can catch both Bryce and Homer Drew this Monday, May 23, live on Comcast SportsNet Chicago's Chicago Tribune live, which runs from 5:30 p.m.-6:30 p.m. In addition, Bryce will be on the air Friday night with Indiana basketball legend Bob Lovell on Indiana Sports Talk and Saturday morning at 10 a.m. on Sirius XM College Sports Nation (Channel 91).

I accept wedding submissions of all themes, sizes, religions and gay weddings.
From intimate do-it-yourself-dos with a difference to big budget blow outs, I believe that every wedding is special. I want to share in your day and help to inspire tens of thousands of other brides to be across the North of the UK and the wider web. Click here to see some of the most recent beauties on the blog.
And it's so simple too! All you have to do is email email@example.com to submit a Real Wedding.
Your initial contact email should include:
- Your name and email address
- Your Real Wedding venue and date
- A brief description of your Real Wedding including general theme, colour scheme and any other special details
- 4 to 5 varied images from your Real Wedding

When submitting engagement photographs, trash the dress, cherish the dress and other styled sessions, please follow the submissions format as above substituting the relevant details as appropriate.
Whilst I do accept submissions from photographers and other vendors if you are not the bride or groom you will need to seek their permission before making your Real Wedding submission.
Should Brides Up North wish to review your submission further I will require:

This is how screwed up City Hall is when it comes to releasing public records.
On June 19, I filed a Freedom of Information request with City Hall that asked for a boatload of data, including the job descriptions and credentials of management personnel at the Buffalo Economic Renaissance Corp.
I didn't hear back right away. In fact, I'm still waiting for most of what I requested. You might have heard about it from me in my blog or perhaps my boss in her column.
Update: Peter Cutler, the mayor's spokesman, has responded to Margaret Sullivan's column, which Artvoice has critiqued.
Anyway, on July 9, Mayor Byron Brown, reacting to a story I wrote about BERC President Brian Reilly and the health insurance policy he got for his live-in girlfriend at public expense, gave Reilly the heave-ho and announced the hiring of a new chief fiscal officer for the agency.
The mayor's office trumpeted the fact the new guy, E.J. Walton, was a graduate of the Harvard Business School who later worked a number of jobs in the private sector, including at a bank. The mayor's office gave The News a copy of Walton's resume. (I've whited out sensitive stuff like his personal cell phone number and the names of his kids).
The first page of the resume looked like this.
Upon reading, I learned that his last full-time job was at Virginia Union University, that he's been involved in funeral home ventures, and that he worked for six years with the First National Bank of Boston.
Ah, banking experience. A good thing.
Brian Meyer and I include some of the information in the story we wrote.
Fast forward to this past Wednesday, as in two days ago..
A letter arrives from Divitta Alexander, BERC's lawyer, responding to my June 19 FOI request, or at least the portion relating to the job descriptions and credentials of management at her shop.
Included was the same resume of Walton's that the mayor's office had given us a month before.
Only it was different. A lot of stuff was blacked out -- or redacted, as they say in FOI-speak.
To block, among other things, the names of Walton's previous employers.
To protect his privacy, silly.
BERC couldn't have possibly disclosed, for example, that his last full-time job was at Virginia Union University. Or that he used to work at First National Bank of Boston.
To do so would have been an "unwarranted invasion of personal privacy" the BERC attorney said in her letter to me.
In other words, BERC withheld the very information the mayor's office wanted us to have the month before.
To be fair, the BERC attorney did redact some things she should have, like Walton's personal cell phone number and private e-mail address.
But the names of his previous employers and companies he owned and operated?
When the mayor's office had already released that information -- and more?
Not to mention that BERC took more than a month to provide something that had been sitting around for, well, a month. I mean, the mayor's office provided the resume the day Walton was hired.
Readers, welcome to my world.
And welcome to City Hall.
It doesn't end there.
Susan Schulman, who doubles as an investigative reporter and editor, submitted an FOI request to multiple City Hall agencies in June asking for documents related to grants provided to the Jeremiah Partnership and the Bethel Community Development Corp., which Sue and Patrick Lakamp wrote about a couple of weeks ago.
Alexander, the BERC attorney, responded by saying she would need up to 45 days to provide the documents. About the same time, Scott Billman, her counterpart at the Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency, sent us the documents.
Memo to BERC: Where there's a will, there's a way.
Alexander, in her letter accompanying the redacted resume, closed by saying I had the right to appeal.
Oh, I'll appeal, alright, but not to the BERC appeals officer.
Nope, I'm appealing to the court of public opinion.
Folks, what do you think?
