Gravity Rush is a mind-bending experience and a great addition to the PlayStation Vita library. Navigating an open world on a handheld platform has never been so much fun.
We like
- Wild gravity-defying navigation
- Great use of Vita features
- Beautiful presentation and loveable protagonist
We dislike
- Dull ground combat
- Targeting while in air mildly frustrating
- City feels a bit empty at times
See PSU's review on Metacritic & GameRankings
Gravity Rush challenges your perception of what it means to be a superhero. Better yet, it challenges your notion of what constitutes as superpowers. The cleverly-named Kat, who is bestowed gravity-defying powers by a cat (get the play on names?), acts like a superhero on acid. She falls through the city like a ragdoll in a wind turbine, bouncing off chimneys and crashing onto the side of buildings with a heavy "thu...

Thread: Stolen Pecan Tree
Stolen Pecan Tree
I've seen a couple of stolen Christmas tree cases, from lots during Christmas season but I believe this is the first I ever heard of a grown pecan tree being cut down and stolen.
JACKSON, MS (Mississippi News Now) - Jackson police are trying to figure out who stole a large pecan tree from the front yard of a church in northwest Jackson.
There is no doubt a large tree was cut down in front of Shekinah Glory Baptist Church at 485 west Northside Drive. Pastor Karl Twyner says it happened Tuesday, and nobody was authorized to cut the tree down. He also claimed the tree was being cut up at the corner of Northside Drive and Interstate 55 at a barbeque business.*************************"It wouldn't take much for me to up and run...to another life somewhere in the sun."*************************"There's something inherently wrong with having to put on a bullet-proof vest and a gun to go to work."-(An old friend)

Tonawanda News — Two Tonawanda projects could be the beneficiaries of recently planned increases in Erie County's 2013 budget.
Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz plans to add several hundred thousand dollars to its budget that would aid in bringing two Tonawanda projects to fruition.
He indicated, with Western New York's aging infrastructure, increased funding for capital projects is necessary.
"When I was elected last November, I heard the message loud and clear: The public demands we finally address our deteriorating roads, bridges and parks," Poloncarz said. "I have listened. My proposed budget will help ensure the safety and well-being of residents across Erie County by investing in our aging infrastructure with an additional $700,000 for pay-as-you-go capital improvements and increasing the capital projects budget to $39 million."
While Poloncarz has been criticized by some for a budget that proposed a tax increase in an area already hard hit by some of the highest rates in the nation, some of the funding would be spent on a Brighton Road overhaul in the town as well as an expansive Tonawanda Rails to Trails program that would turn an unused rail line running from North Buffalo to the Niagara River in the City of Tonawanda into a bicycle path.
Poloncarz said a $39 million 2013 capital budget would be bonded and leveraged by $19 million in state and federal funding, setting the total at $58.2 million for more than 60 projects across the county. While a slew of town, city and village projects related to road and bridge construction are among the proposal, some of the funding would also be sent to county parks, Erie Community College and the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center, among others.
Poloncarz's noted his plan would be paying off more debt than it adds for the coming fiscal year, including $40.6 million in principal and $17.6 million in interest from debt service associated with prior capital projects, though approval for the budget still requires passage by the county legislature.

I'm trying to solve this set of non linear differential equations, but apparently it won't solve. I really tried all the tweaks I could think of. Still no progress... So now I turn to you, can you help me? the code below should be ready to put into Mathematica. These equations describe the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction in chemistry..
(*Define the differential equations*)
deq1 := x'[t] == p[1] A y[t] - p[2] x[t] y[t] + p[3] B x[t] - 2 p[4] x[t]^2;
deq2 := y'[t] == -p[1] A y[t] - p[2] x[t] y[t] + f p[5] z[t] ;
deq3 := z'[t] == 2 p[3] B x[t] - p[5] z[t];
(*Replace A, B and all the p values, and set up the equations as a list*)
deqsys = {deq1, deq2, deq3 } /. {p[1] -> 1.7, p[2] -> 1.8*10^9,
p[3] -> 9.0*10^3, p[4] -> 4*10^7, p[5] -> 0.5, f -> 2, B -> 0.6,
(*Solve the set of equations, and save them as the variable Sol*)
Sol = NDSolve[deqsys, {x[t], y[t], z[t]}, t]

Matt Sciarretta had a huge grin on his face.
Despite giving up three runs, Sciarretta pitched a no-hitter Friday as the Stamford Warriors defeated the Stamford Blue Jays 11-3 at Cubeta Stadium in the semifinals of the 25th annual Sharkey Laureno Memorial tournament.
The Warriors advanced to Monday's final in the 15-year-old division which will be an all-Stamford affair as Stamford Legion routed Harlem RBI 16-4 in the second game of Friday's semifinal doubleheader.
Usuallly, in a no-hitter there are one or two outstanding plays in the field to preserve it. That wasn't the case Friday as there were few balls hit hard off Sciarretta, who knew he was working on a gem.
"I tried not to worry about it, though," he said. "I didn't want to jinx it."
A rising junior at Stamford High School, Sciarretta struck out five and walked five. Only one of the runs he allowed was earned as the Warriors committed four errors.
Sciarretta was in control to the extent that there no balls hit to the outfield against him. There were two foulouts, seven groundball outs and seven popups or lineouts to infielders.
"My curveball was pretty good and the outside corner, they kept chasing," Sciarretta said. "I didn't really worrry about the score. I just wanted to have a good game. I knew we would get runs on the board."
The game ended in unusual fashion. Since the Warriors enjoyed a big lead, they paid no attention to Kyle Cruz, who took off for third, but Cruz was doubled off second for the final out after a popup to third.
The Blue Jays grabbed a 1-0 lead in the top of the first as D.J. Davis scored on the back end of a double steal after Sciarretta issued two walks.
"Walks kill, but it feels good to throw a no-hitter," he said. "It's the first one in my career. I never threw a no-hitter before."
The Warriors answered with a pair in the bottom of the first as Brian Powers and Randy Barahona got things got with a singles. Chris Dipietro tied with a sacrifice fly and Mike Palumba put his team ahead with a run-scoring single.
The Blue Jays tied in the top of the third, when Davis reached on an error and scored on a throwing error after stealing third.
But the Warriors regained the lead in the bottom of the inning, also scoring a run without the benefit of a hit. Powers reached on a one-out walk, stole second, advanced on a throwing error and came home on a wild pitch.
The Warriors extended their lead to 5-2 in the fourth after Palumba and Paul Battinelli started the inning with singles. Sciarretta plated Palumba with a groundout to second and Stanley Block scored Battinelli with a single to left.
The Warriors made it 6-2 in the fifth on Dipietro's RBI single before another error led to the Blue Jays' final run in the top of the sixth.
The winners broke it open with five runs in the bottom of the sixth, the big hit being Ronnie Jackson's two-run triple. They also scored in the inning on a balk and two groundouts.

Will narrow business interests continue to dominate SF's political agenda?
Will the narrow, deceptive, and disempowering "jobs" rhetoric of the last two years continue to dominate San Francisco politics in 2013? Or can San Franciscans find the will and organizing ability to create a broader political agenda that includes livability, sustainability, and affordability?
If it's up to the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce – whose perspective has been aired in both the Examiner and Chronicle over the last two days – private sector profits will continue to be our only metric of civic success.
Just take a look at the "Pinkslips and Paychecks Scorecard" that the Chamber released yesterday, rating members of the Board of Supervisors based on a series of 16 votes for tax cuts and public subsidies for businesses, approvals of projects serving the rich, rollbacks of government regulations, business surcharges on consumers, maintaining PG&E's dirty energy monopoly, and blocking an expansion of developer fees to improve Muni.
That aggressive neoliberal agenda, which is shared by Mayor Ed Lee and his big corporate backers, was reinforced by Chamber VP Jim Lazarus in an op-ed in today's Examiner. Ignoring the rising housing and other living costs that plague the average San Francisco, Lazarus uses hopeful language about how we're all "poised for success in 2013," burying the Chamber's aggressive and exclusive agenda in the subtext.
At the top of his agenda are: "Approval of the California Pacific Medical Center rebuild, reforming San Francisco's California Environmental Quality Act appeals process, and rule-making for the upcoming gross-receipts tax." In other words, let CPMC have what it wants, make it more difficult to challenge developers on environmental grounds, and ensure business taxes remain as low as possible.
And to ensure supervisors get the message, he closes by noting that business leaders are "energized and ready" to push their agenda with tools such as the Alliance for Jobs and Sustainable Growth, which waged some of the nastiest and most deceptive political attack ads on progressive candidates in the last election cycle.
The progressive movement of San Francisco has its problems and issues, including a recently widening schism between environmental and transportation activists on one side and the nonprofit housing and social justice faction on the other. And in the current economic and political climate, both sides too often find themselves partnering with corporate and neoliberal interests to get things done.
But now, more than ever, San Francisco needs to broaden into political dialogue, and that means a reconstitution and expansion of its progressive movement. That's something that the Guardian has long focused on facilitating and publicizing – something that will be my personal focus as well – and we have some idea percolating that we'll discuss in the coming weeks and months.
Then maybe all San Franciscans can be poised for success in 2013 and beyond.
it's appropriate to look forward to 2013. And in considering that, and the possibility of a change of direction, then it's important to ask whether what the average SF'er wants has changed.
Now, we know that you and SFBG have your own vision and ideology. But I think that even you would admit that you haven't typically done well at the ballot box. The simple fact is that Lee stood on an aggressive pro-jobs and pro-growth platform and garnered a comfortable victory. While Daly and Ross have given way to moderates.
So the question now surely is this. What, if anything, has changed since then? Well, it's only been a year so all we really have to go on is the 2012 election results. And while the state and the nation moved left, locally we really did not. Progressives lost in a couple of key districts and the left-wing corpus elected a decade ago has mostly fizzled out.
So if you want to push your agenda just because it is your and you like it, then knock yourself out. But can you put your hand on your heart and honestly declare that there is an unambiguous mandate from the people to change course? Because I am just not seeing it. Are you hear to listen to the people or tell them what they should want?
Ad Hominem Troll.
Stephen Troll Jones
I would dispute some of your premises, Guest. In San Francisco as well as statewide, polls consistently show people supporting higher taxes on wealthy individuals and corporations, and sounding concerns about their own economic security. The "jobs" rhetoric only works because most people (oh, say, 120 percent of median wage and below) are barely getting by and they're scared that things will get worse. And to address your question, what has changed in San Francisco since Lee's election is that rents, housing prices, and other costs of living have all increased, adding to that squeeze that people feel. We also have a less diversified economy because of all his focus on tech development, making this city vulnerable to a downturn in that sector, something that City Economist Ted Egan has warned policymakers to address, although none seriously are. So it isn't me spreading fables about what San Franciscans want, it's you, Mayor Lee, and the Chamber of Commerce that are misrepresenting things because it suits their narrow self-interest. All I'm trying to do is speak the truth and spark a conversation about the myopic politics being practiced in this city.
pro-jobs and pro-Lee because they are "scared", you've decided that they don't really know what is best for themselves but that you, miraculously, do?
In other words, if the people assert a preference for a policy that you personally do not prefer, then you want to supplant their thinking with something more "suitable".
Now, I happen to agree that SF should have a diverse economic base. But do you really believe that having world-class entities here like Twitter, Salesforce and so on harms our economy? Any other city on the planet would kill to have such businesses, and Brisbane very nearly did.
Sure, housing is on an upswing right now. That always happens in good times, and that really helps anyone in SF facing foreclosure (which SFBG has suddenly stopped worrying about, apparently). Higher prices are always the quid pro quo of a great economy, but would you really want to swap places with Detroit? I guarantee you that almost no voters would, if that even bothers you.
Just as corporate power dominates San Francisco government, their trolls dominate the SFBG website. One side is playing for keeps, our side is not.
"trolling". If you cannot even handle some mild and constructive criticism from a registered Democrat, how can you ever hope to credibly do battle with real right-wing hardliners?
Seeking to suppress criticism was a hallmark of the ill-fated communist regimes. We have an open society here. Try and understand what that means, and what obligations it places on you to embrace diversity, balance and mutual tolerance.
Ad Hominem Troll. The issue of this thread is corporate dominance and how to fight it.
Assumptions are always dangerous.
You are a troll as the editorial position of this publication, unless it has changed, is that we should contest corporate dominance. Other publications support continued corporate dominance of politics. If you were not a troll you'd be discussing your position with people who agree with you and doing something about it other than disrupting a progressive forum with your libertarian capitalism.
should ever be made here? Because I checked the site and see no official statement like that anywhere?
You assume, surely, that this organ does not embrace a diversity of opinions, nor welcomes free speech and well-argued challenge? But I see no written basis for that assertion.
Recall that the Chamber, Scott Wiener, and the Bicycle Coalition want to "reform" CEQA. Wiener wants every project okayed by City Hall to sail through unchallenged, the Chamber wants all profit-oriened projects to get a pass, and the Bicycle Coalition doesn't want the city to have to do any serious traffic studies before it implements all of its anti-car "improvements."
SF progressives are now in coalition with Wiener and the Chamber.
out-of-control bike lobby. But Wiener really is a good guy and, in fact, a breath of fresh air on the BofS.
We definitely need EIR's done on some of the more aggressive bike lanes that are now being mooted. But anyone who wants to get something done in this town right now doesn't want to get on the wrong side of Wiener. The dude has a way of getting things done.
Imp Troll.
cok gobbling troll
Last time you were here, you were a classical caricature of a left-wing loony. Now you seem adept at seeing through them. That puts the "progress" in "progressive" fo shizzle.
Rob, you are correct. The Mayor and developers have the nonprofits of both tribes, enviro and social justice in their pockets and plays each off of the other to maximize the corporate take while minimizing any benefits.
As a result, all we're going to see is much more development that snarls Muni more than it pays in and decreasing increments of affordable housing, social services and "livability."
The public will be cut out of any meaningful input because, as we all know, staff gets it right the first time all of the time.
These are the kinds of discussions that should dominate this board instead of the mindless right wing gainsaying from the trolls.
He gives no quarter to the poverty pimps of Non Profit Inc.
I think it's disgusting that someone like Randy Shaw can use his influence to get privately-run SRO's shut down on safety or DBI issues, then buy those buildings for a song with taxpayer money, then do them up with taxpayer money, and then rent them out while claiming exemption from rent control because they are technically a "non profit". Nice living if you can swing it, and his Berkeley home is worth 2 million, apparently.
But on the other hand, the non-profits can be bought off which dilutes the most left-wing and dangerous political constituency here, and that's not worth nothing.
So is it OK to throw some bones to the appalling Shaw, Welch et al, in order to save us from being run by a moron like Daly? I have to think, on balance, that it is.
Troll. The editorial position of this publication is decisively to the contrary of your position. Continuing to troll here espousing opposing positions instead of attacking the settled premise is harassment.
the editors here that such a position must be maintained without any right of reply.
Brooks, marcos and lilli have made it abundantly clear from their hundreds of weekly posts that only certain subjects and favored political positions are permitted here. Besides, all of the real organizing and coalition building is being done face-to-face, not on some lame chatboard. Only the losers and socially challenged have to resort to chatboards to make their points.
The people trying to make a difference in the Bay Area are too busy meeting and talking with kindred spirits, or doing the messy work of organizing and compromising with other like-minded individuals. They don't have a lot of time to waste wading into this chatboard where many bottom-feeders flourish. Even more than sfgate, this is the "All hat, no cattle" chatboard, where a profusion of words and name-calling are used to mask a paucity of action by those with few accomplishments. Rent-control. Manhattanization of SF. White men behaving badly. Where have we read about those stories before? Last year? Three years ago? 10 years ago?
and so your comment ended up being simply ass-clownish.
achieved anything real? Aren't the real progressives those who actually achieve some progress, rather than whining from the peanut gallery?
Lucrecia, what else would an honest observer/participant do? The nonprofity and labor nexus has perfected the art of losing, of compromising for pennies on the dollar and they continue to get rewarded for failing which all be ensures more failure. As noted below by a political opponent troll, my political interests are sabotaged by replacing effective progressives with the nonprofiteers. What would my interests be in supporting that?
Also, Rob, just as Golden Gate Park was Leah Shahum's last Moby Dick and that led to opening the floodgates to luxury condos in and around the formerly industrial areas Mission, Leah is going all Ahab on your ass for being correct on the Bicycle Plan and her "victory" will be Pyrrhic to cyclists.
Leah would rather cast her lot with developers to get back at you even if it means that bike projects where an initial review indicates an environmental impact of transit delay will still need to do an EIR. The whole point of this exercise was to relieve bike projects of EIR because of auto delay. You taught us that bike projects can delay transit as well. I find it annoying that Shahum signed onto an editorial "putting transit first" when she's pushing an effort to slow down transit due to ending most CEQA project level analysis.
And when transit is slowed down, that shifts mode to autos disproportionately which makes cycling even more dangerous.
The "disempowering jobs rhetoric" has not been disempowering to those that have found (and hope to find,) good paying construction jobs in both the public & private sectors. It is critical for us as progressives to embrace the thousands of local residents (many people of color,) who find job security, healthcare, pensions, hope, etc. in development projects, instead of the NIMBY (and hardly diverse,) minority.
Yes, but developers need to pay for their projects' full impacts to Muni and other city infrastructure, as well as providing affordable housing funding and other mitigations to ensure their profits don't come at the expense of San Francisco's diversity and long-term stability. Too often, the building trades have been willing to support bad deals for city residents -- negotiated by people in the Mayor's Office who don't understand the idea of leverage or brinksmanship -- simply because maybe a quarter of the construction jobs projects create are going to city residents. Going forward, we should take smart stances somewhere between the NIMBY and "all growth is good growth" perspectives.
Steven, unless you're willing to use the SFBG to enter progressives into a progressive 12 step recovery program to take an inventory of what led us to the position where the Mayor is running roughshod over us, analyze what fragments of the progressive coalition add value and which elements subtract value, promote the former and sack the latter, and what other constituencies can be incorporated into a new coalition, then it really makes no difference whether you speak the truth to power.
Power makes the truth and knows it full well. It no longer even goes through the motions of listening.
Either we figure out how to build a new electoral coalition to contest corporate dominance or it is going be major dildo action with us on the receiving end from here out. Our first problem is cleaning house. That will involve stepping on your relationships. I don't think that you have the ability to be confrontational required to clean house in you.
Actually, Marc, I am interested in that very goal. Stay tuned.
puzzling mish mash progressive world view at it's pinnacle.
The progressive bemoan the lack of opportunity, jobs, and upward mobility, for denizens of the city. They also bemoan that opportunity for the working classes doesn't also include the progressive mish mash of entitlements elsewhere.
Having dozens of city citizens get well paying jobs that could last their lifetime is bad if MUNI has to carry those people to work. It would be much better if the city was paying them to watch color TV. It's an atrocity if people get well paying jobs and pay higher taxes, if property values go up and thus property taxes because some people were employed to upgrade properties then the world is nearly come to an end.
Some progressive examples
The progressives want the poor and downtrodden to move up, but not at the cost of actually moving up. People that make more money use up more energy, it's better that they are poor.
Women and minorities should move into the board room, but corporations are evil. So it's better that there is a glass ceiling so that progressives can blame everything on white men.
Don't ask don't tell is an atrocity but the military is full of baby killers. We should ban JROTC from our Campos-es because theu don't let gays into the military, until they do let in the gays so we should ban them because???
Nothing pisses off a progressive more than a person leaving the reservation.
Nice, Steven, finding the middle, that is the key.
Construction employment in a small city is not sustainable unless the city is constantly rebuilt. That is neither economically nor environmentally sustainable. Relying on construction in San Francisco for a steady stream of jobs is like the Pacific Northwest relying on clearcutting of old growth virgin forests, it has been proven impossible.
In fact, in most cities, homes and buildings get replaced much more frequently than here, where many buildings are now 100 years old, and where space is limited.
A good quake, of course, will need the whole city to be redeveloped. I guess you're hoping that doesn't happen for purely political reasons.
Other than just tax the bejesus out of anything that moves?
One where progressives self marginalize so that corporate power can finalize its decisive play FTW.
adjectives add nothing other than what the writer wants you to believe.
So had you started your piece with "Will the "jobs" rhetoric of the last two years continue to dominate San Francisco politics in 2013?", I probably would have been more receptive to the remainder of the article. After all, yes, Lee stood for office on jobs and won handsomely. That's a fact.
But instead of course you started with:
"Will the narrow, deceptive, and disempowering "jobs" rhetoric of the last two years continue to dominate San Francisco politics in 2013?"
Thereby breaking two of the golden rules of good writing. (The other being putting the word "jobs" in quotation marks to indicate you think it's somehow fraudulant. You turning a perfectly valid fact into a value judgment.
Can I send you a guide to writing style as a late Christmas present?
"Jobs" is a proxy for corporate welfare.
Lee won a landslide on a pro-job platform. But then why would you care what the voters want? It's all about what you want?

West Bank charity coffee morning raises £1,460
6:40pm Monday 15th October 2012 in News By Barbara Jordan, Chief Reporter
A CHARITY coffee morning in West Bank, Widnes, has raised £1,460 for Macmillan Cancer Support.
Residents teamed up to bake cakes and serve tea and coffee at Spike Island visitor centre.
Ray Pye from Green Reclaim gave up his time to collect non-ferrous metal donated from local businesses, and raised £720.
Julie Baker, chairman of West Bank Community Forum, said: "We would also like to thank all who attended the event, baked cakes, helped to serve on the day and set up and those who donated prizes and scrap metal.
"Without the help received and donations, events like this, to help such a worthy cause would not be possible."
Halton's Mayor and Mayoress, Clrs Tom and Angela McInerney helped to serve coffee and cakes to visitors.
The Apollo Group and Halton Housing Trust staff also supported the event.
Foma Constructions, Howden's kitchens, Radial Electrics, Top Notch Kitchens and Swindells roofing provided raffle prizes.

A teenage girl was raped, beaten and killed in 1986 — her body dumped off Skyline Boulevard just north of Alpine Road in San Mateo County. For nearly three decades her attacker got away with murder. Then came DNA testing and tenacious investigators determined to solve the case.
Now, her accused killer is behind bars awaiting justice.
John William Kelley, 49, a registered sex offender living in the Sierra foothills town of Placerville, was arrested Wednesday and brought back to San Mateo County. He's being held in the Maguire Correctional Facility for kidnapping, rape and murder, according to a statement from Lt. Larry Schumaker of the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office.
Kelly is scheduled for arraignment Friday.
The victim was Annette Thur, just 17 years old, who lived in the Santa Cruz Mountains town of Ben Lomond. On Dec. 6, 1986 she attended a party in nearby Boulder Creek. Her body was found the next day. At the time, investigators were told that Thur planned to hitchhike home from the party. After an initial probe, the case went cold.
Earlier this year, evidence from Thur's murder was re-analyzed by the San Mateo County Forensic Lab. Technicians found Kelly's DNA. The case was officially re-opened and assigned for further investigation.
On Wednesday, San Mateo County Sheriff's Office detectives traveled to Placerville where they interviewed Kelly about the case. He was arrested, transported to San Mateo County and booked into jail. His photo has not been released.
If you have any information about this crime or the suspect, contact Det. Andy Armando at 650-363-4347 or email email@example.com or Det. Matt Broad at 650-363-4363 or email email@example.com. You may also contact the Sheriff's Office Anonymous Witness Line at 800-547-2700.

Recent Granite Status
John DiStaso's Granite Status: 2012 VP nominee Paul Ryan to return to NH in October to campaign for Guinta
Guinta hasn't yet formally announced for the 1st District seat he won in 2010 and lost to Democratic U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter in 2012, but the Ryan visit makes it clear that he will run -- with an announcement expected soon.
It will be Ryan's first visit to the state since the 2012 general election campaign and will show that Guinta has the blessing of the GOP House establishment as he enters a likely primary against outsider Dan Innis, the outgoing dean of the UNH business school (see item below).
(FRIDAY AFTERNOON UPDATE:) Ryan, in fact, officially endorsed Guinta this afternoon, issuing this statement to the Granite Status:
"The people of New Hampshire were very hospitable to my family last fall, and I'm looking forward to the visit.
"I'm proud to support Congressman Guinta, who will work to pay down our debt and help grow the economy."
Guinta, while in Congress, was a member of the House Budget Committee, which Ryan chairs.
Due to tight scheduling, there are no plans for Ryan to also campaign for Republcian 2nd District U.S. House candidate Gary Lambert when he is in the state, according to sources.
WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 18: INNIS RESIGNING FROM UNH. Dan Innis of Portsmouth is stepping down as dean of the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire and is expected to announce in several weeks that he is a candidate for the 1st District U.S. House seat currently held by Democratic Rep. Carol Shea-Porter.
Innis, 50, a Republican, has been rumored to be considering a run against the incumbent Democrat for the past several months. Some Republicans tried, apparently unsuccessfully, to talk Innis into running for the U.S. Senate.
Innis joined UNH in 2007 and previously was dean of the business school at the University of Maine. He has also been an associate dean of the Ohio University business college and in the 1980s was an assistant operations analyst for the Warner-Lambert Company of New Jersey.
If Innis runs for Congress, it will be his first venture into elective politics. He would presumably be taking on former U.S. Rep. Frank Guinta in a Republican primary. His resignation from UNH is effective Nov. 1.
Guinta, who lost to Shea-Porter in 2012 after defeating her in 2010, has been informally exploring another run for the 1st District seat and is expected to make an announcement within the next several weeks as well.
Peter Paul, the prominent GOP donor and philanthropist who donated $25 million toward the establishment of the business school in his name, is backing Innis' likely run for Congress.
Paul, who "maxed out" in donations totaling $5,000 for Guinta in 2012, said, "Under Dan's leadership UNH educated thousands of future business leaders, expanded outreach to local businesses and oversaw the building and opening of a multi-million dollar capital improvement project. I know first-hand that Dan has the experience and skill set to bring fiscal responsibility to Washington and get America working again.
"If Dan Innis runs for U.S. Congress he will have my full support," Paul said.
Innis said, "It has been a pleasure to grow and improve business education at UNH for the past six years. UNH business graduates are an important economic engine for our state and region and I am proud to have played a role in their development.
"Now that my time as dean is coming to a close I have been encouraged to run for Congress by my family and friends and I plan to make my decision in the next couple of weeks," said Innis, who is a married gay man.

Let me first say that I have a number of friends that are appraisers. Let me also say that I have been very critical of HVCC and Dodd-Frank, which governs the appraisal process through appraisal management companies, which for me goes against the free enterprise system and put some very good appraisers out of business.
Appraisals that are done are not an exact science. Let me share an example and why the system doesn't work in the best interest of the consumer. All these rules are put in place to protect the consumer from themselves.
A couple of months ago, I took a mortgage application for a client that had been referred by a local Realtor. The property was being flipped by an investor that purchased and completely renovated the property. The sale price was $169,900 with the seller paying $5,000 toward closing costs. Because the property was being flipped, two appraisals were required, which is common in these situations.
The first appraisal was done and came back with a value of $163.000. The two Realtors in the transaction both thought the appraised value was incorrect and contacted the appraiser with additional comparables showing a higher value. In the meantime the second appraisal came in $172,500. How is this possible? The appraisal process is not an exact science.
We requested the lender allow a third appraisal to be done, which they didn't allow. The original appraiser would not adjust the value based on the information that was supplied by the appraisers. The lender came back saying the second appraisal could not be used and would only accept the first appraisal with the $163,000 value. Explain to me how this makes sense?
The buyers could not come up with the difference, so the seller had a decision to make. In this case, accepted the lower price and took the $6,900 hit.

Ok cool thanks do you know what type of diablos they are using?
I am sorry I do not know. @SurrealOne has one, maybe he will jump in here and let us know. I know that Diablo has the price locked on their tuners so you will get it for the same price everywhere. But, If you buy it from @06MonteSS he gives you a break on the custom tune price so you save some cash. I know that if I had the money to do it I would buy one in a heartbeat.

Gotcha do you know where the guys shop is at because I live down in cape may nj
I think that he does it all through email. He sends you the programmer, you install it and log data, email it to him, he makes changes, sends it back to you, you reinstall and log more data, he will keep doing it until it is perfect, usually 3 or 4 times I think.
I run a diablo intune. I think that's what surreal runs. The vendor on here is helpful. I'm getting ready to do a custom tune for my truck through him using my diablo intune. Great programmer btw!!
Since the InTune wasn't released when I bought my handheld tuner, I have the older DiabloSport Predator. On the plus side, it's built like a tank compared to the InTune (i.e. the kind of device you can throw into a toolbox full of sockets and wrenches and maybe even hammers and not care). On the minus side, it's friggen gigantic and it's also end of life -- the InTune is its replacement.
I haven't upgraded because there's no good reason to do so. Once support for the Predator ends I'll be forced to upgrade.
As for how it's done -- yes, it's all via email. I'm highly technical so I had no issue with this. However, I know many people aren't so it's worth mentioning that Lew (i.e. Diablew aka @06MonteSS on this site) has worked with people of all calibers of technical expertise ... from non-technical to eggheads like me.
and yeah, predator's were discontinued about 9 months ago, so they're done... anyone looking to get a diablo programmer will want to get the inTune or Trinity...
the diablo tools have more features than others, the most end-user adjustability of any handhelds, complete/full datalogging support (more parameters than others), PLUS you can get custom tuning done for them/your vehicle - which you can not with the others - you are stuck with whatever tunes they give you on it.
and as mentioned, I sell them and also offer package deals for them that includes my custom tuning at a reduced cost so you save $$. here's info:
inTune: http://intune.diablewtune.com
Trinity: http://trinity.diablewtune.com
as for the difference between the two... I actually have both the inTune and Trinity for my car... engine/tranny tune wise, the tunes are the same. and of course, my custom tune would be the same as well... the trinity has a few more features, including a performance monitor for 0-60, 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile times, etc... bigger color touch screen... graphic gauges for monitoring data... and I like the Trinity better for data logging - the logging is better, and since it has a windshield mount (like a gps), a bigger, color screen, so it's easier to go through while it's mounted... you can watch/view the data without having to hold it, since it's mounted to the windshield... there's also an available gauge pod mount adapter for it, so if you have a gauge pod like on your a-pillar, you could mount it right in there with the pod mount... the inTune does not have a mount, so you have to hold it or put it on the seat next to you - kind of defeats the purpose if you want to watch some data while recording it - you'd have to hold on to it and hold it up in front of your face while driving haha, it's a little harder to figure out and find where the parameters are to log and select/deselect, etc... the Trinity will also get an update in the future that will allow you tune more than one vehicle at a time with it... again, these are MY personal preferences... other people like the smaller intune better (it's the size of a credit card), and having to hold it or lay it on the seat may be no big deal to them... but for me, for my own personal preferences, I like the Trinity better...
So really, it's up to you which one you'd want... if you don't want/need the extra features/bell-n-whistles, then you can go with the inTune - and it's less expensive...
With the custom tune, you'll gain even better/quicker throttle response & acceleration, stronger/harder pull, smoother & quicker power delivery throughout the rpms, etc... and sometimes, maybe even a little better gas mileage - if you can keep your foot out of it! hahaha...
as far as gains go... absolute hp/tq gains are hard to predict... every vehicle is different... even if they're the same and have similar mods... location/weather, fuel used, elevation/altitude, etc etc all play a role... the same holds true for mileage gains - those variables, plus driving habits/style, how much highway vs city driving, etc all make a difference.... you could gain no mpg increase, or you could gain up to about 3 mpg increase... tough to say due to the variables in play...
with the custom tune, I CAN tell you that you will definitely have a very noticable performance difference/gain over and above the canned preset diablo tunes...
I have gained people anywhere from 15-39hp, and 12-23lb. ft. torque...and 0 to 3 mpg - above and beyond what the preset canned tunes give you... again, obviously mods, fuel used, etc all played a role in who gained what...
if you have any questions, please feel free to hit me up! ;)

The Tribune-Star
Last Friday, the Indianapolis Star reported that the Metropolitan Interscholastic Conference — home of Terre Haute North and Terre Haute South — is exploring expansion. The league could grow to as many as 16 schools.
MIC expansion could — emphasize … could — signal the end of the line for North and South, members of the MIC since 1998. The article by Kyle Neddenriep said that the MIC has only invited schools "in the Indianapolis donut."
The article openly speculated about North and South's future in the league and one would-be expansion candidate — Indianapolis Pike — expressed interest in the MIC, but admitted its interest would cool off if it had to travel to Terre Haute.
The story jives with rumors from multiple sources several of us at the Tribune-Star had heard prior to the article being published. Sports reporter Andy Amey has been working on a story of his own on the topic.
At this point, it must be stressed that anything regarding the MIC is speculative, but it also must be noted that the handwriting on the wall is ominous.
Noting that the North and South MIC purge could be very real, I expressed multiple reservations about it on Twitter last Friday. What I got in response from some — not all — folks was joy.
The reaction ranged from good riddance to let's use this opportunity to join up with the Bloomington/Evansville/west-side Indy schools.
If only it were that simple.
The comments pre-suppose two things: 1. That there's a perfect-fit conference out there the Terre Haute schools can just slide into to replace the MIC. 2. That Bloomington/Evansville/westside Indy schools want to pair up with North and South in the first place.
Independence isn't an option. There are only 26 independent schools in Indiana. Travel would be an unmitigated nightmare for North and South if that's the route they elected to take.
Unfortunately, geography is an enemy Terre Haute can't conquer. There isn't another 5A/4A school within 50 miles of Terre Haute.
Yes, the schools in Bloomington (also vulnerable if Conference Indiana is picked over) and Lafayette (definitely vulnerable if the Hoosier Crossroads Conference is decimated as is likely if the MIC expands), or Evansville might make some semblance of sense to hook up with on paper.
But in reality, those schools and their conferences have concerns and parameters of their own that aren't just going to be shoved aside for North and South's benefit.
My biggest concern, however, is for North and South's student-athletes.
Though the MIC losses have piled up for North and South in some sports, so have opportunities that might not have been there if not for the MIC. Opportunities that would be harder to come by if the Patriots and Braves beat up on smaller schools for the sake of better W-L records, which is what some fans want.
Right now, Terre Haute's athletes and teams get to be tested against the best of the best. There's a lot to be said for that, even if on a year-to-year basis it can be frustrating to absorb defeats given the depth of talent in the larger schools in the MIC.
On my Indiana State beat, I look at a player like Jake Odum, who was initially ignored as a potential recruit at South.
One selling point Odum had was that he proved he could perform in the MIC. It led directly to scholarship rather than a walk-on offer from ISU. Three years later, not only has Odum had a successful Sycamore career, but he's considered one of the best point guards in the Missouri Valley Conference.
Does any of that happen if Odum hadn't played in the MIC? Perhaps … perhaps not.
Though North and South's teams are often on the short end in the MIC, not all have been. Does Terre Haute South's girls basketball team win its state title in 2002 if it hadn't been tested in the MIC? One of South's two losses in 2002 was to Lawrence North and it beat Ben Davis in a tense semistate game.
Terre Haute North and South's tennis, golf, volleyball, baseball and softball teams have been pushed to some high peaks, partly because of participation in the MIC. Even football, the sport where North and South are at the biggest disadvantage against the cream of the MIC crop, there have been beneficiaries.
In my time, at ISU alone, athletes like Jamie Petrowski, Daniel Millington, Brock Lough, Michael Mardis and several others have proved they could thrive at the Division I level. Take away the MIC and are those players as ready to perform at that level as they would've been otherwise? Perhaps … perhaps not.
Current football athletes like North's Calvin Blank (Ball State) and Austin Lewis (Western Michigan) as well as South's Danny Etling (Purdue) are FBS-bound. Without the MIC, does that happen?
I hope the MIC speculation is just that and both North and South stay. Perhaps a bigger MIC can be a more fair MIC. If the MIC goes to 16 schools, perhaps it can have large and small-school divisions — or more accurately — gargantuan and mega divisions.
North and South might not have the depth of talent that a 3,000-enrollment school has, but it gets proven time and again that there is talent here. The MIC gives Terre Haute's athletes a chance to show it.
But if North and South are compelled to leave the MIC, a choice that admittedly might not ultimately be theirs, just be careful what you wish for. Departure from the MIC might improve W-L records, but it could also come at the expense of opportunities for Terre Haute athletes.

2004 Sierra-Blank/dead Radio, no sound or chimes but rear DVD works
Hi, new member here looking for a solution to a strange problem. I have a 2004 GMC Sierra SLT Duramax Crew Cab with the rear seat entertainment package (Ceiling mounted DVD and center console radio controls), all stock, nothing aftermarket. The other day the head unit and rear center console radio controls stopped working - blank display, no sound from any speaker, no "on-star ready" greeting and no door chimes. The DVD player however, still works except that sound will only come through the headphones. One interesting part is that I can hear what appears to be a faint humming/fan sound coming from the small speaker on the celiling above above my head on the driver's side - I guess it's the on-star speaker...
I checked the interior and engine compartment fuse blocks and no fuses are blown. I figure it's a shorted wire somewhere, but it's puzzling since the DVD still works. I'm guessing the DVD gets its power before the HU and the HU powers the rear radio. So I'm thinking I have to look for shorted wires from the engine bay fuse block all the way to the HU. I'm reasonably mechanically inclined and can probably do the work myself if not too involved, and I just need some idea as to what wires to look for (color, etc.), where they are routed in through the engine compartment, and possible wire pinch/kink points where a short could occur.
Thanks for the help!
Ignore the faint humming, its common, my LT does it even with the onstar completely disabled.
Your issue sounds like a failed headunit or bad amplifier, your amplifier can be found in the center console.

Thanks for the input zigger, turns out it was a failed HU. I ordered a Pioneer 3400 HU from Crutchfield after they insisted that with the additional harness, all stock functions would work (SWC, RSE, chimes, etc.). The HU works, but so far, the SWC's work only marginally, it looks like I'll have to tinker with customizing the buttons, since the seek and source controls don't seem to be mapping themselves properly to the steering wheel. \
The other bugaboo is that i can't get the RSE DVD to play through the speakers. Only the headphones will play sound from the rear DVD. The Crutchfield tec had me splice the factory harness grn/wht, brn/wht, and blk/wht wires with with a red & white coaxial cable to see if sound would come through. No dice. I'm pretty disappointed that I was told the additional harness would reconnect all factory items and now it won't. Anyone have a problem like this?

Pulsed-RF Measurements
Testing with pulsed RF signals provides a unique test challenge due to bandwidth limitations, pulse desensitization, and/or triggering requirements. Agilent provides a variety of tools designed to meet these challenges accurately and reliably.
Pulsed RF S-Parameter Measurements
Device behavior differs under CW stimulus and pulsed RF stimulus due to the differences in power dissipation and biasing. Learn about the unique methods Agilent provides in characterizing components under pulsed RF conditions with Agilent´s application note PNA - Pulsed-RF S-Parameter Measurements Using Wideband and Narrowband Detection (AN 1408-12).
Pulsed RF Signal Generation
Simply create basic pulsed RF signals using the optional built in pulse modulators available with Agilent PSG, MXG, and ESG signal generators. For more complex pulse patterns use Agilent´s vector signal generators. Find out more about these solutions with Agilent Signal Studio for Pulse Building product online technical overview.
Pulsed RF Spectrum Measurements
Optimally measure the spectrum of all signal types using a combination of swept, FFT, and vector analysis techniques. Learn more about pulsed RF spectrum measurements with Agilent´s application note Fundamentals of RF Pulse Analysis using a Spectrum Analyzer.
Pulsed RF Power Measurements
The power of pulsed RF signals may be measured using an average or peak power meters. Average power meters often have the most accuracy for an average power measurement; however peak power meters have added benefits of being able to directly measure peak power, pulse power, pulse characteristics such as rise and fall times, and power statistics. View a Pulsed RF measurement demo P-Series Power Meter Radar Video Demonstration.
Pulsed RF Phase Noise
Pulsed systems such as radar transmitters are limited by the effects of phase noise. Because these devices are designed to operate under pulsed RF conditions, the phase noise solution must operate with pulsed RF signals. Learn more about pulsed phase noise measurements with Agilent application note Pulsed Carrier Phase Noise Measurements (AN 1309).

Riding with Studs
Inherent ice, snow and mud is any variety of slippery conditions. When riding, please use your cautionary judgement regarding safety for you, your horse, and others around you. You should know how your horse will react to being ridden in these types of conditions. Always be cautious when making the decision to go for a snowy ride to ensure everyone gets through the winter safely without injury and can look forward to enjoying the warm sunny rides in the months ahead.
Be sure your boots fit well, before trying them with studs. Legs, hoofs, pasterns and coronets can be destroyed by the use of studs. Be diligent. Be careful. Do not use studs on one boot and not the other. Horses need balance. Do not turn horses out with studded boots on. Playing around can tear up their legs. And keep yourself out of the way too. Getting stepped on by a studded hoof is not pleasant. If you are drilling into older boots, please ensure that the stud tread does not extend past the sole of the boot. Boots that are worn down may have a thinner sole and the placement of studs becomes very important. Please use your own thoughtfulness and best judgement. Always be aware that you have studs in the boots and do not ride in them when they aren't needed.
Installation Instructions
Pre-drill 1/8 inch locator holes with a 3/16 inch drill bit. Lock stud into position on the end of the NEW AND IMPROVED tool. Position end of the stud tread over the drilled hole and slowly drill the stud into the sole tread until the base of the stud head touches the sole. ITS THAT SIMPLE!
Use caution when using studs with SPORT Boots as the sole tread is thinner than Simple Boot. Studs may penetrate through when applying studs to used Sport boots with worn soles.

Temporary food stalls
How to apply
Sampling Sydney's huge range of cuisines is part of the appeal of visiting our markets, fairs and other public events. The City of Sydney regulates these events to protect people from food poisoning.
Information for stallholders
If you want to sell food at one-off public events like markets, fairs and concerts, you need approval from the City of Sydney.
Submit your application and payment at least 2 weeks before you want to start trading. Approvals are valid for 12 months. A separate application form must be lodged for each stall you have and another fee will be charged. Please refer to the City's fees and charges.
Your stall must pass an offsite health inspection for off-site food preparation and storage. The inspection can be carried out by the City of Sydney, another council or the NSW Food Authority. The report you receive when your stall passes the inspection must be lodged with your application for approval. No charge is made for the first routine health inspection of the stall if made within 12 months of approval.
Once your stall is approved by the City of Sydney, you will receive a unique reference number to supply to organisers for events in our area. The organisers will need to approve your participation at each event separately.
Your business must comply with the City's health conditions, the Food Standards Code, the Food Act 2003 and the Food Regulation 2010 at all times when operating and trading.
Requests to review a decision to revoke or decline approval should be made in writing to the City of Sydney using the details below.
Application checklist
- Completed and signed temporary food stall application form
- Copy of a recent satisfactory health inspection report for any off-site food areas
- Cheque or fee payable to "City of Sydney Council".
Temporary food stalls selling unpackaged, ready-to-eat potentially hazardous food will need to appoint a food safety supervisor.
You can mail your application to us or lodge it in person. Our details are in the right column.
Information for event organisers
All temporary events where food will be served must firstly be registered online with the NSW Food Authority (see link below).
City of Sydney approval is also required. Event organisers must download, complete, sign and return the registration form along with a map of stall locations and the unique registration number for each stallholder. This must be submitted at least 2 weeks before an event is to take place and accompanied by the relevant fee.
If you are providing stalls, please note that the standard fete type stalls are often too small for cooking operations. As cooking, food preparation and storage is often conducted at the rear of the stall this area must be provided with overhead cover such as a tarpaulin. Waterproof ground cover must be provided.
Registration checklist
- Completed and signed temporary food event application form
- Site map indicating stall locations
- List of businesses – name, site location and City of Sydney reference number.
You can send registrations to the City by post or lodge them at the One Stop Shop (details below).

Journal Sentinel sports columnist Bob Wolfley offers his take on the local and national sports scene.
Fox Sports 1, an all-sports TV network, will debut on Aug. 17
Fox Sports 1, a new national multi-sport network, will debut on Aug. 17.
According to Fox Sports Media Group, which held a press conference Tuesday in New York, Fox Sports 1 will be in 90 million TV households when it debuts.
News about Fox Sports 1, which replaces the Speed channel, has been leaking out for months.
Part of the programming content on the new network will be the men's basketball games of the new Big East Conference.
Games in other basketball conferences the network will carry include the Big 12, Pac-12 and Conference USA.
College football, Major League Baseball, NASCAR auto racing, soccer and UFC bouts are to be part of the programming.
Among the original shows to be part of the network's launch is "Rush Hour," hosted by Regis Philbin, a one-hour talk show to air at 4 p.m. weekdays from a studio in New York.
Another new one-hour program is "Fox Football Daily," to air at 5 p.m. weekdays. Fox is calling it an extension of "Fox NFL Sunday."
The new show is to be hosted on a rotating basis by Fox personalities Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, Jay Glazer, Gus Johnson, Erin Andrews and Mike Pereira. The NFL and college football will be the focus.

Might as well wheel in Pat Summeral and Frank Gifford as well
ALL of them is a vast improvement from Dick Vitale or Bill Walton....
ALL of them "are"....
LOL! Yeah, might as well go with Ellen if Regis is your best. She is more pleasing to the eye even if she is playing for the other team.
LOL! Yeah, might as well go with Ellen if Regis is your best. She is more pleasing to the eye even if she is playing for the other team.
I will give any new network a try to avoid watching ESPN. If Fox Sports is as myopic as ESPN, though, and mostly covers teams from NY and LA, I will tune them out, too.
