Advisory Firm Protests Sprint CEO's $49M 2013 Pay PackageJuly 25, 2014 11:13 am | by Ben Munson | News | Comments
It's worth noting that the $18.7 million Sprint CEO Dan Hesse was awarded in 2013 will not vest or be paid out until 2018 and that a portion of the $16.7 million has not been vested or paid out yet either. Because the $18.7 million is tied to equity, the amount paid out when it vests in 2018 will be dependent on the stock price at that time, meaning it could be subject to change.

T. McFerrin retired this week after a career that put him on the sidelines for 38 seasons as head coach. McFerrin won 340 games – fourth-most among Georgia coaches in history – and two state titles, his final one last month for Jefferson.
What is McFerrin's place in Georgia coaching history? Can a case be made that h is the best coach in state history?
Don't dismiss him too quickly. At the least, he's had more success at more schools than any other coach.
Also, the three coaches whose names are most commonly mentioned as best coach in state history – Wright Bazemore, Nick Hyder and Larry Campbell – all won state titles at schools that had won state championships before they were hired.
McFerrin, who has built winners at eight schools, won state titles at Jefferson and Elbert County. He's one of six coaches to win state titles at two schools that had never won state titles. (Jeff Herron is another, to name one.)
Other facts about McFerrin –
- McFerrin coached five different schools to the state semifinals. That's a state record.
- McFerrin won region titles at seven of the eight Georgia schools that he coached. That's a state record.
- McFerrin delivered seven of the eight to the state quarterfinals or better, also a state record. The only school that he failed to win a region title or make the quarters was Southeast Whitfield, which had its third-best season ever (7-3) in McFerrin's only season there.
- The combined record of the eight schools that McFerrin has coached before hiring him is 34-46-1. Their record in the first year under McFerrin is 65-23-1.
Here is a look at McFerrin's eight jobs and how the team's record changed in his first season:
Lithonia: 1-9 to 8-1-1 (1968)
Forest Park: 7-3 to 9-2-1 (1971)
Peachtree: 2-7-1 to 10-1-1 (1976)
Southeast Whitfield: 1-9 to 7-3 (1984)
Tucker: 5-4-1 to 4-7 (1986)
Elbert County: 7-3 to 9-3 (1990)
South Gwinnett: 0-10 to 8-5 (1998)
Jefferson: 11-1 to 11-1 (2009)
Here are other coaches who might be in the discussion for best coach in state history. How would you rank them? Are there others?
- Wright Bazemore: Bazemore won a state-record 14 state championships and finished with a 265-51-7 record that spanned from 1941 through 1971, with a few years off for World War II.
- Larry Campbell: Campbell's 470 victories rank third all-time nationally. He's won 11 state titles at Lincoln County. He'll be in his 42nd season as head coach this fall.
- Alan Chadwick: Marist's coach since 1985, Chadwick has won two state titles and has a record of 311-55. His winning percentage (.850) ranks third in state history.
- Wayman Creel: With a 315-105-2 record, Creel was Georgia's all-time most winning coach upon his death in 1990. He was one of the first coaches to win state titles at two schools. He did it at Northside of Atlanta (1957) and Lakeside (1970, 1972).
- Robert Davis: Davis' record of 353-73-1 makes him the second most-winning coach in state history. He's won more games in the highest classification than any other Georgia coach and won three state titles (1976, 1981 and 1988) and two national titles (1976, 1981).
- Shorty Doyal: Doyal was Georgia's first famous head coach. His record is 193-72-24 over 27 seasons, during which he won nine state titles and made Boys' High of Atlanta a vaunted program throughout the South.
- Nick Hyder: Hyder won seven state titles at Valdosta from 1974 to 1995 and finished with a 302-48-5 record. His winning percentage (.858) ranks No. 1 in state history. Hyder also was 53-12-3 at West Rome (1968-73).
- T. McFerrin: McFerrin's 340-102-4 record puts him fourth-all time in victories for Georgia head coaches. He is one of six Georgia coaches to win the first state championships for two schools (Elbert County, Jefferson). He's the only coach to lead five different schools to the state semifinals.
- Dan Pitts: Pitts made Mary Persons a state power during a nearly 40-year career (1959-1997) and retired in 1997 as the state's all-time winningest coach at 346-109-4. His record was broken by Larry Campbell, who viewed the Lincolnton native Pitts as a major influence.

Coach McFerrin only won 317 of those games in Georgia, if Im not mistaken. But should be considered one of the All-Time greats!

NICK HYDER best coach toughest region ever 1AAAAA from 1978-1989
January 4th, 2013
12:26 pm
Nick Hyder helmed the most feared football team in the country during his tenure at Valdosta. They won several mythical USA Today national championships.
No Georgia team or coach has garnered as much respect as he did during his time there.
Dan Pitts made Mary Persons a dynamo during the 80s. He could teach a 175 lb lineman how to kick the crap out of a 260 lb lineman up and down the field. He never had a big team in size but in heart his teams were giants!

Why would Charles Grisham of Carrollton, GA. not be considered to be one of the greats. He won somewhere between 3-5 state titles.
January 4th, 2013
1:42 pm
Conrad Nix, Northside, W.R. had 2 state titles and 2 finals in the 2000-2010. Most wins in the decade from all classifications, if I am not mistaken.

1:55 pm
Bill Chappell at Dalton has to rank near the top. He was 317-74-9 in 33 seasons without a lot of talent on most of those teams. Charlie Grisham at Carrollton is another. He had five state championships and a 261-69-13 record in 29 seasons and had 16 region championship teams with a Notre Dame box that was unstoppable. Add Jim Hughes at Thomasville and Colquitt County, Gene Brodie at Central of Macon and Tift County, Charles Winslette at a series of programs, Rodney Walker at several schools, Buck Godfrey at Southwest DeKalb, and Luther Welsh at Dougherty, Thomson and a few other places and you have a group as good as any you mentioned above.

Nick Hyder was the best coach I have ever seen in my 59 years of watching footbal – at ANY level. He was a CHAMPION on the field as well as off the field. He turned down many jobs(even at some very prestigious SEC schools) to stay at VHS and DOMINATE!! He was the most sincere person I have ever witnessed on this entire earth. He not only talked the talk, but he also walked the walk. Nick Hyder was a man of God and was light years ahead of his time – just like Bazemore. He touched so many lives – there still isnt't a day that goes by that I do not think about him and his famous sayings (nobody ever overdosed on roast beef and green beans, eat your breakfast, tell your mama that you love her, kissing is a contact sport and football is a collision sport, etc, etc) – and he died in 1996. He is a legend that will live on forever. He was a true servant of God and was called home to his Lord way to early. He is truly missed not only as a coach, but as a human being. He is what good is all about.

Being a life long Wildcat fan, it would be impossible for me to pick either coach Baze or Hyder…I am 47 and have been going to games since I was 5. There the reason we cat fan's are so spoiled now.. Other great coach's not on this list in my opinion are . Gene Broady(tift co.), Jim Hughes(moultrie),Cecil Flowe(Parkview),Buck Godfry(s.w.Dekalb),and Randy mcpherson(Lowndes),Jeff herron (camden Co.). Sure i left a few off. Curious to see other's opinion.

You would also have to consider Jimmy Hightower and Alton Shell at Americus.

I cannot argue with T McFerrin since he built more downtrotten programs into winners & champions!
But for my $$ (whick is now worth a LOT less due to Obummer) I have to go with Calvin Ramsey and Crawford (kicked my butt up & down the gridiron & ripped the facemask off my helmet more times than I care to remember!) Kennedy of the "Other" Blue Devils, Avondale!
Seriously, ALL the coaches listed (& some not listed) are great coaches.. Hard to argue with any.. But if you want to build a program from the ground up… T. it up!!

Billy Henderson should be in everyone's top 5.
The AJC should be ashamed he didn't even crack their top 10.
His achievements are even more impressive when you condier the GAHSA allowed Clake Central to compete in the highest class even though their enrollment was well below the minimum allowed.

As a former HS coach, All of the above are well deserving of the honors they have and all should be, if not in the Georgia HS Hall of fame. Taking nothing away from T. McFerrin, I always thought it harder to stay at one school and win year after year rather than go from School to School. Nick, Larry are two of the greatest I ever coached against. Another Great Coach that you will here for year to come that may wind up with more wins than all of them is The Buford coach. Keep an eye on him.
January 4th, 2013

Wright Bazemore at Valdosta was absolutely the best Head Coach ever in Georgia. His teams were always pretty impossible to beat and were very well coached and talented!

I wonder which of the great coaches were able to do the most with the least.
January 4th, 2013

Coach Creel used to thump us on the heads in drafting class with those big state title rings. He was simply a legend at Lakeside HS
January 4th, 2013

As a Valdosta native I also feel Billy Henderson should be on the list. VHS vs Clarke Central were great games. I would take Baze over Nick by a hair.

Billy Henderson was an assistant under Mike Garvin at Mt de Sales in Macon. The Cavaliers won two state titles in those two years. He also coached baseball there and won the state title also, along with being named National High School Baseball Coach of the year in1972.

Bud Theodocian who won a state title at Morrow was an excellent coach who also won at Woodward Academy. I think he may have won a baseball title also.
Julian Mock out of Murphy in Atlanta was a fine coach as well.
January 4th, 2013
10:46 pm
I think the world of Coach McP….but I think it is ludicrous of you to assume that someone is a better coach because he wins or plays for titles at lots of schools….sometimes that is a result of chasing talent around. It is MUCH harder to sustain a program for years and years and years like Nick Hyder did. I say this with all due respect to Coach McPheron—-he is certainly among the state's best….
January 4th, 2013

In Valdosta, the culture is all about high school football. From feeder programs right up to the junior varsity, kids were raised on football. Atl Lakeside, Wayman Creel took upper-middle class kids with more of a penchant for soccer, golf and baseball and molded a football dynasty.
January 5th, 2013
12:03 am
I find it quite humorous that the good ole boys don't think it's challenging to win state titles at more than one school. There's a reason those jobs are open folks; the previous guys didn't get the job done. You often have to change a losing culture into a championship culture; not easy to do.

January 5th, 2013

Trying to pick the best or the greatest among a list of really outstanding coaches is an exercise in futility. All of them should be honored equally for their success on the field and for their tremendous influence in the communities in which they lived and in the lives of the kids they coached. As a Valdosta Wildcat fan, I will favor Bazemore and Hyder because I knew their work first hand. But I can't say they were greater than coaches Lamb, Campbell, Broady,,Henderson, G. Maloof, or any of the others mentioned. Won-Loss records and championships are certainly valuable tangible measuring sticks. But the intangible contributions of quality of life and character of the athletes and to the community cannot be so easily measured but go a long way in addressing the greatness of a coach, regardless of the sport.

My question is why do you feel the need to name the best? Because the list of the best just goes on and on. I guess other than get a bunch of middle age guys to jog their memories I think it is way too difficult to choose just one. That is why Ga has a high school hall of fame with many folks in it. It is kind of like who has the best looking wife ! No wait football coaches stirs up much deeper feelings. Damn glad my wife doesn't read the ajc sports.
All these fine coaches have done more for this state than most governors. I am proud to have played for G.B.Maloof . His record would of been much better if not for the anti-football priest that arrived in 1976 to take over and did his best to get rid of coach (he did)and football. (almost) Check the ga football historian site for detailed info. His coaching legacy was on display in the Dome this year when 3 of his former players one being his son Keith,led their teams into the finals now that is truly inspiring. His older son Kevin also had many good teams in his career. I believe coach did play for Shorty Doyle mentioned above so connect some more dots there. Good well rounded coaches inspire others do good things in life and sometimes even follow in their footsteps.
FYI…. while playing at Tech Coach scored 4 tds in a game against UGA so all round football guy. He and some guy named H Walker have the shared record in that series.
Back to my original thought what we need is about a thousand more guys to join this great list of coaches and continue to be role models for these high school kids. In 10 years time have 25-30 more names being brought forward.
Many a good argument can be made for the Valdosta group. Then you have Coach Creel, I am sure he would of had much success at Westminster had he not passed way to early.
One school coaches well I am not saying it is easier to succeed once you build a top program but I kind of favor the guys who have had 2 or more top programs in different environments. To me I think to start over somewhere else is just a tad more difficult then be the "MAN" and have folks coming after you like you have a target on your back.
I am truly lucky to have seen some of the names on this list like Godfrey,Nix,Hixon,Gruhn,Lamb,Kennedy and even Chadwick (that was very hard to say being from St. Pius) coaching high school ball and at the same time giving life lessons. Great article and as always lots of good comments.
@GtBob usually we agree on football matters but I believe you to be off base on your "hired gun" comment. Something about being 65 plus and hired gun just don't fit here. Would you call Coach Curry a hired gun at GSU?

Billy Henderson is the best coach in the history of the State of Georgia. He is what young coaches want to be. One of the best EVER!

I didn't have time before the deadline to add colour, but I intend to do so after I finish handing in all of my work.
Three stills from my rotoscope animation. The first, forty-first and one-hundred and sixth (last) frames.
The animation is a transition from the woman to the man.

A Work In Progess, my current attempt at rotoscoping. I've only black-lined a few frames, but once i finish all of them, I'll go back and colour each frame.
From spn 5x04 - Free To Be You And Me
My first attempt at stop-motion animation photographically recording a natural change.
Unfortunately this apple just refused to die and simply shrunk.
Taken over three days and two nights.
An animation I did a little while ago using Photoshop CS5 of my tutor Andrew as a sheep, jumping over a hedge.

A Warm Reunion in HartfordPosted by Jeffrey Biegel in Uncategorized
In the late 1980s, I expressed my intense desire to perform with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. After meeting the brilliant Beethoven specialist and performer of the 32-Sonata cycle, Anne Koscielny, when she was a juror for the William Kapell Competition which awarded me the first prize in 1985, I was invited to perform on Anne's Hartford Piano Society series several times. There, I also met Anne's husband, the amazing pianist and teacher, Raymond Hanson–a pupil of Harold Bauer himself! Ray gave me one incredible lesson on Beethoven's 'Waldstein' and Balakirev's 'Islamey' during a visit to their peaceful farm in Western Massachusetts. Such vivid memories!
Anne promised she would speak in my behalf with Michael Lankester, then music director for the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. I finally had the opportunity and great pleasure to perform with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. It was my first performance of the Rachmaninoff 'Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini'. Then Artistic Administrator, Toby Tolokan, drove me back to my hotel and was as cordial as ever. (He is now in Indianapolis). He was responsible for my re-engagement the following season with Gottschalk's "L'Union" with 'Rhapsody in Blue'. Donald Pippin, the great Broadway conductor and then Music Director of Radio City Music Hall conducted. (I met Don through his first teacher, Evelyn Miller in Knoxville–that's another story for another time–dear Evelyn, also a friendship from the Kapell competition, passed recently. I had a memorable lunch visit in Knoxville's 'Regas' restaurant to remember my first visit to Knoxville when Evelyn first took me there. If you go, Regas has the definitive Red Velvet cake! And a fantastic orchestra too!!)
While organizing the Lowell Liebermann Third Concerto project, I contacted Edward Cumming, current music director for the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. We began a cordial email friendship, which resulted in the Hartford Symphony Orchestra's participation in the project. I met Edward for the first time this past weekend, and he is indeed a warm and generous musician and neat guy. He conducted the score like a veteran–and had not heard the demo cd of the piece either! I was absolutely amazed. At this concert, who attended other than Anne Koscielny and her husband, Ray, who had turned 88 the day before. I told Ray, "You see, you lived a year for every key on the piano! But what about the Imperial Bosendorfer with the extra keys? You have a ways to go!" It was a homecoming of sorts, from over 20 years of friendship–all a result of going to a piano competition in 1985! By the way, Anne is performing the complete cycle of Beethoven sonatas in Lancaster in 2008. A must see!
I humbly include the review in the Hartford Courant and hope to see as many friends at the concerts I will be giving this season!
Echoes Of Evangelical Revivals Heard At Bushnell
By JEFFREY JOHNSON SPECIAL TO THE COURANT
October 7, 2007
If it were possible to dial into hidden wavelengths in the harmony of the spheres and hear the vibrations of New England's 19th-century evangelical revivals, it would sound like Charles Ives' third symphony. This music opened the Hartford Symphony's first program in the 2007-08 Masterworks Series in Mortensen Hall in the Bushnell Center for the Performing Arts. Ives constructed his symphony by weaving and blurring hymn tunes. They are magnified, layered, transformed. Conductor Edward Cumming shaped the extended lyrical development of the work with clearly defined motion directed toward section closings. He even chose a slower-than-usual tempo for the second movement, with less emphasis on features such as its March episode than on the continual development of melodic gestures. The final movement was balanced with care, and the complex textures created by fragmented ideas called "shadow lines" moving against the rich polyphony created an ecstatic close. Ives intended for church bells to be sounded at the closing of the work, and scored quietly played orchestral bells. His editor, the composer Henry Cowell, felt that it would be closer to his intentions to play a recording of real church bells at this point in the score. The bells we heard were disappointing. They sounded like wind chimes and were too loud to produce the required atmosphere. They could almost have been the courtesy bells that signal the end of intermission.
To close the first half of the program, Jeffrey Biegel joined the orchestra for the Lowell Liebermann Piano Concerto No. 3. Biegel is the hardest-working classical musician in show business. He has a long history of developing innovative performance venues and creative commissioning formats. This new Liebermann concerto was made possible largely through his efforts. Eighteen orchestras, including the Hartford Symphony, pooled together for the commission.
The Liebermann concerto itself is a lengthy work packed full of wonderful surprises. It has been described as "accessible." Perhaps. But it is not simple; and a good part of the apparent accessibility comes from construction with a divine pacing. Several strongly written lyrical passages surface amid frantic passagework in the first movement. The fugue theme late in the movement is extracted from solo piano music heard earlier with figuration transformed in the strings.
The second movement is a passacaglia. Layered and widely spread pianistic textures created the challenge. Biegel played with delicacy and an ethereal flair. The second movement also has a saloon-music cadenza that anticipates a ragtime episode in the final movement. The final movement is military music gone berserk. It is hard to describe without using the "S" word (Shostakovich), but it does provide a convincing close to a substantial concerto.
This is a work with a defined musical personality and the substance to have a shot at making a regular presence in this competitive repertory. At any rate, Biegel will show pianists of the future how this work is played.
After intermission, we heard Beethoven's Symphony No. 8. Cumming ramped up the volume in the first movement, creating a sense of energy surplus that helped power the symphony through the relatively short inner movements and well into the finale. Cumming has an engaging sense of how to unfold musical gestures to emphasize the rhetorical sense of this repertoire. The finest moments came at the irrational interlude in the coda leading the music suddenly into F-sharp minor. From there to the end, the orchestra sounded like a carnival; just as Beethoven would have wanted.

There is a video at the end of which Tom is sitting at a table with a glass of wine, wishing we could join him. I'm sorry, the title isn't coming to me, but Sue produced it and filmed that bit at their home.
I thought it was a wonderful idea. Sipping wine and eating crusty bread with a bit of cheese and listening to Tom tell endless stories where we'd never know where the truth ended and the, well, you know, began.
I think he had a glass of something red. What wine or other drink do you like? What are your favorite cheeses, food, dessert?
I can't drink reds. I turn red. Maybe it is my nordic heritage. I am a wimp with dry wines as well. I prefer White Zinfandel, Riesling and other German wines. I wish I could expand my palate but chardonnays make me shudder.
I am similarly wimpy with strong cheese. Who likes them? what kinds? Mostly, cheese is just delicious! It makes other food delicious. It's magical like that.
Maybe later I'll ask about dessert, if someone doesn't burst with excitement over some delectable treat!

An elderly woman lost control of her vehicle and crashed into a Winter Haven CVS store, narrowly grazing a customer inside, police said Thursday.
It happened Wednesday afternoon at a location on State Road 540.
The woman driving was 84-year-old Margaret Underwood, police said. She was in a 2008 Chevy Impala and came barreling through the front. Photos from the scene show that she went a significant distance inside the store.
Surveillance video shows she nearly hit an 80-year-old woman who was shopping inside at the front counter. The woman suffered some minor injuries.
Underwood apparently backed into a Chevy Suburban just moments before that in the parking lot. Police say she dropped her husband off at CVS and waited for him in the car.
When he returned, she accidentally backed into the Chevy. While her husband was checking on the SUV, she apparently put the car in drive and hit the accelerator.
A CVS employee who helped the shopper grazed by the vehicle said the engine was still revving at a high RPM and the wheels were spinning after it crashed inside the store.

Clayton Morgareidge argues for why we need to "learn to see passed liberalism" and why "we must join and form and nurture political organizations that aim at transforming the capitalist and militarist system of power, which now governs our lives." He does this after admitting the many points of agreement between socialists, anti-capitalists, and liberals about poverty, inequality, war, racism, sexism, etc. He explains the problems of liberalism in terms of fetishizing moral persuasion before the power structures of state and corporate capital.

It depicts a police escort with helicopters. It is believed by many that they are escorting/transporting something ufo/non-terrestrial related. Now in my line of business over the years I have been part of many escorts of hazardous materials. I have also done research and found it uncommon for police to have sirens and helicopters for hazardous material, while it is common to transport these materials at night. Let me know what you think. [youtube][/youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4utFenD27Mw Found this equally interesting. This guy claims to have hacked pentagon/nasa/navy computers and supposedly found evidence/proof of alien crafts, as well as a list identifying non-terrestrial high ranking officials in our military/ government.

Hypothetical of course but What if the government was to create another 911 like scenario or a natural disaster.? Then by declaring martial law they would gain control, ban firearms and other rights in regards to our safety? The economy would collapse again and there would be need for reformation. Basically a new set of laws and government. They could minupulate us into believing it was right....there is just so much to explain Lol. Basically it comes down to oil. Control the world's oil supply control the world. With that kind of money and power things would really get fucked. Sorry I can't be more specific it's all jumbled in my head.

I learned to knit when I was 8. I also crochet, tat, spin, weave, and sew. And do embroidery and cross stitch, all of this in my mythical spare time.

When I go for too long without making something, I get cranky.

Verizon rides iPhone, dividend bubble
Bernstein Research downgrades the telecom to 'sell,' concerned that it may not be able to extend its streak of dividend increases.
By Scott Moritz, TheStreet
Verizon (VZ) was slapped with a "sell" rating from Bernstein Research on Tuesday on concerns about continued dividend growth.
As one of the darlings of the dividend crowd, Verizon shares are up 27% since its one-year low in July. Last month, Verizon raised its dividend to 48.75 cents a share, extending its streak of dividend increases to four years in a row.
But with a big payment to joint-venture partner Vodafone (VOD) looming and an ongoing debate about paying down the $57.4 billion in debt on the books, Verizon has some pressing decisions to make about how it spends its cash.
The Bernstein downgrade was based on "a stretched valuation coupled with risks to its future dividend coverage," analyst Craig Moffett wrote in his research note. "In contrast," he added, "we expect AT&T (T) to amply cover its dividend, as well as commit to regular dividend growth."
Just as sales growth attracts investors, so too does dividend growth. Without bigger and bigger piles of that sweet cash candy, investors may look elsewhere for returns.
While concerns about dividend growth are the thrust of the Bernstein report, there's also a bit of iPhone bubble in the stock that Moffett suspects may have limited upside from here.
People close to Apple (AAPL) have assured a few highly positioned media outlets that Verizon will be carrying the iPhone early next year. The news of a Verizon iPhone has helped add a few bucks to Verizon's valuation -- or as some say, it's priced in.
For pessimists, this can mean that Verizon has nowhere to go but down from here.

Retinal detachment
Retinal detachment is a separation of the light-sensitive membrane in the back of the eye (the retina) from its supporting layers.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
The retina is a transparent tissue in the back of the eye. It helps you see the images that are focused on it by the cornea and the lens. Retinal detachments are often associated with a tear or hole in the retina through which eye fluids may leak. This causes separation of the retina from the underlying tissues.
Retinal detachment often occurs on its own without an underlying cause. However, it may also be caused by trauma, diabetes, an inflammatory disorder. It is most often caused by a related condition called posterior vitreous detachment.
During a retinal detachment, bleeding from small retinal blood vessels may cloud the interior of the eye, which is normally filled with vitreous fluid. Central vision becomes severely affected if the macula, the part of the retina responsible for fine vision, becomes detached.
The risk factors are previous eye surgery, nearsightedness, a family history of retinal detachment, uncontrolled diabetes, and trauma.
- Bright flashes of light, especially in peripheral vision
- Blurred vision
- Floaters in the eye
- Shadow or blindness in a part of the visual field of one eye
Signs and tests
Tests will be done to check the retina and pupil response and your ability to see colors properly. These may include:
- Electroretinogram (a record of the electrical currents in the retina produced by visual stimuli)
- Fluorescein angiography
- Intraocular pressure determination
- Ophthalmoscopy
- Refraction test
- Retinal photography
- Test to determine your ability to see colors properly (color defectiveness)
- Visual acuity
- Slit-lamp examination
- Ultrasound of the eye
Most patients with a retinal detachment will need surgery, either immediately or after a short period of time. (However, surgery may not be needed if you do not have symptoms or have had the detachment for a while.)
Types of surgery include:
- Cryopexy (intense cold applied to the area with an ice probe) to help a scar form, which holds the retina to the underlying layer
- Laser surgery to seal the tears or holes in the retina
- Pneumatic retinopexy (placing a gas bubble in the eye) to help the retina float back into place
Laser surgey is performed after pneumatic retinopexy to permanently fix it in place. This is often done in a doctor's office.
More extensive detachments may require surgery in an operating room. Such procedures include:
- Scleral buckle to indent the wall of the eye
- Vitrectomy to remove gel or scar tissue pulling on the retina
See also: Retinal detachment repair
Expectations (prognosis)
What happens will depend on the location and extent of the detachment and early treatment. If the macula has not detached, the results of treatment can be excellent. Most retinal detachments can be repaired, but not all of them.
The unsuccessful reattachment of the retina results in loss of vision.
Calling your health care provider
A retinal detachment is an urgent problem that requires medical attention within 24 hours of the first symptoms.
Use protective eye wear to prevent eye trauma. Control your blood sugar carefully if you have diabetes. See your eye care specialist at least yearly, especially if you have risk factors for retinal detachment.

Ninth-Inning Rally Lifts Jacks
GREELEY, CO — South Dakota State rallied for four runs in the top of the ninth inning to defeat Northern Colorado 11-8 in non-conference baseball action Saturday afternoon at Jackson Field.
The Jackrabbits improved to 12-8 overall, while UNC dropped to 7-13. SDSU will go for a sweep of the three-game series Sunday afternoon, with first pitch slated for noon Mountain Time (1 p.m. Central).
Trailing 8-7, Andrew Melton started the ninth-inning rally with a single through the left side. Scott Splett followed with a walk and Daniel Telford loaded the bases with a bunt single. A walk to Aaron Machbitz forced in the tying run and Splett scored the go-ahead run when Reid Clary's fly ball to right field was dropped. Daniel Marra provided a pair of insurance runs with a two-run single to center that scored both Telford and Machbitz.
Sophomore closer J.D. Moore struck out the side in the bottom of the ninth inning to record his fifth save of the season. Moore has yet to allow a run in nine appearances this season and has struck out 14 batters in 10 1/3 innings.
SDSU took an early 2-0 lead with a solo home run by Splett in the first inning and run-scoring single by Telford in the third inning.
UNC got on the board in the third inning on a Nick Miller RBI single before the Jackrabbits extended their lead to 4-1 in the fifth inning on run-scoring singles by Telford and Machbitz. Telford was 4-for-5 with three RBI and two runs scored, raising his batting average to .485 (16-for-33).
The Bears tied the game in the home half of the fifth and took a 7-4 lead with three more runs in the sixth. Joe Love opened the scoring in the sixth with a home run off Jackrabbit starter Stephen Bougher, with Jensen Park adding a run-scoring single before the final run of the frame scored on one of six Jackrabbit errors on the day.
The Jackrabbits came back to tie the game with three runs on only one hit in the seventh. Melton walked to lead off the inning and scored on a triple by Telford down the right field line. Telford later scored on a groundout, and Paul Jacobson plated the tying run on a wild pitch.
UNC regained the lead in the bottom of the seventh as D. Baum reached on an error and pinch-runner L. Moseley scored on Dylan Banach's base hit to left field.
Only three of the seven runs Bougher allowed in 5 2/3 innings were earned as the senior right-hander struck out four and did not walk a batter. Talon Jumper struck out two batters in a scoreless eighth inning to earn the victory.
Hits were even at 13 apiece. Melton was 3-for-4 and scored four times, while Zach Coppola added a pair of hits for the Jackrabbits.
Banach, Park and Miller all tallied three hits for UNC.

Fujifilm FinePix HS50 EXR Review
Image Quality
Fujifilm FinePix HS50 EXR review - Image Quality
The HS50 EXR's metering system is generally sound, although it does have a slight tendency to underexpose at times, particularly when faced with large, bright areas such as skies. Typically this only requires exposure compensation to be adjusted by no more than 1EV stop, although it does have the effect of keeping details in highlights and retaining colour in skies.
Colours are relatively lifelike, although the Auto White Balance system can at times render the scene with a slightly cold cast. This is easily remedied by the WB Shift function which allows a slight bias to be applied towards specific hues.
Noise control is perfectly reasonable throughout the ISO range, although the highest few settings are JPEG only, and images captured at ISO 6400 and above are output at a lower resolution. Naturally there is some loss of detail through noise reduction, which leaves images a little smooth, but then the same is true of many other cameras when pushed to their highest sensitivities. Nevertheless, a good amount of detail prevails, and if you shoot Raw images you can eek even more out with some careful post-production.
Sadly, the HS50 EXR is let down by relatively poor video quality. Although footage is smooth, there's far less detail than in video from similar models, and worse audio quality too. It's also awkward to operate the zoom as this needs to be adjusted manually by turning the ring around the lens, which introduces camera shake.

Click below for a copy of the report detailing the failures the first time around.
Get a copy of Monday's Register to learn what comes next in the effort to hire a permanent police chief.
Brown will continue to lead Sandusky police chief search
Click below for a copy of the report detailing the failures the first time around.
And do you not think they have it? I take it you don't. The person who put the ad out was the human resources department of the city of Sandusky. So do THEY know the City Charter. The city charter's ENTIRE line for the police criteria for chief says this" any active full time law enforcement officer with not less than ten (10) years of prior active full time law enforcement service, and holding the permananent rank of Lieutenant or higher, as of the date o the application of said officer hereunder, shall be qualifed and eligible to so apply and to be considered for appointment in relation to a vacancy in the position of office of Chief of the Department or Division of Police".
That is the EXTENT of this big deal of the charter....so I don't know what everyone is making a fuss about. That is hardly a big deal. Some criteria. 10 years, still working and that's it? Wow. Not a hard decision to make. What they ran into was people applying who FIT that description.
I could have someone chosen out of 40 applications in 5 days or less, with NO problem. BY MYSELF.
Me too. Alas, the temperament of your Commissioners working together (so to speak), really have need of some willingness to do so. It seems everybody that sits at that table is playing a different sport.
I agree. Maybe it is time to systematically start removing them one by one until the right mix is achieved to create the perfect atmosphere of cooperation. Maybe THEN they will get the message....you know how that works, right? take one away, replace it. Take two away, replace it, then three and so on until they learn? that sometimes works after one or two.
I totally agree with you Wiredmama! It does seem like Westerhold and his staff will do anything to create "drama" and "stories" from nothing. I am really tired of him tearing this City apart, creating issues where none exist, and choosing to support "leaders" like Cole. SHE (and Wesley) are really the problems with the Commission.
I certainly hope people commenting on this "article" have actually read the report. You will see that when this issue came about, there wasn't even mention of the City Charter, yet now it has become the focus of every slanted Register story. If you read the report and the minutes from the meeting where the "issue" was first brought to light, you'll see that Diedre and Wesley were claming the had phone calls with people who heard rumors that "Perkins residents need not apply." Cole was then called out for promising Matthews he'd be the next Sandusky Police Chief - as she stated to two Commissioners. And now all of a sudden it's become an issue regarding the Charter? Give me a break!
Diedre and Wesley should learn when to keep their mouth's shut when it comes to hearing rumors. THEY are the ones who are holding up the process and unnecessarily spending taxpayers money on reports...all because (thankfully!) their guy wasn't a finalist.
AMEN...well said, well written and right on point. You got it sister!!!!
Its FOBAR (F... OVER, beyond all recognition) isn't it? LOLOLOLOL
Nah... It's WWII speak. F'd UP BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION. :) Think "Catch 22".
I was thinking the movie Tango and Cash. LOL
cuckoo cuckoo cuckoo
LOL. Yosarian sitting in the tree naked...
For those of you who think you can add assistance to this problem, why not show up at the committee meeting for the police chief and see what is going on. Maybe that is the answer. I know I am going to. I want to see this for myself.
cuckoo cuckoo cuckoo
I think your time is about up cuckoo. Take it elsewhere. LOL
IMATALOSS is right...Lang wasn't active when they hired him, so what's the difference...
It doesn't matter, if the old applicants didn't pull their applications, then the current ones will, once they see how much turmoil this city is in, and I'm not talking about the murders and drugs, and the little punk kids running around wreaking havoc, I'm talking about how no one in city hall can get along and point fingers at each other and spend so much unnecessary money... Who would want to be involved in all of that??
You and IMATALOSS have a valid point. And that probably goes for business that would have come here as well. And who do we have to thank for all of this?
The commissioners, the Sandusky Register and a hand full of people who just cannot stand to see people get along? (I could name the names of those who continually rile things up around here).
So what can the rest of the city residents do? Hang them all? Get rid of the people who cause the problems? What? Absolutely nothing. They hold the cards and control the press. What do you suggest the rest of we "poor folk" do in a situation where we have no pull, money or power to do anything to change the situation? I would love to know and love to help.
Yes he was. Read my previous post on this. Jim Lang was employed as the chief ranger for Erie Metro-Parks. Which is a law enforcement position.
So what are you saying, keep him? I don't think so. I would love to see someone come in who knows what to do, strong and capable that can impliment that study and really get that department in shape. Really.
@ Wiredmama
If you meant me. No I think that young blood is needed for the city. I was just trying to clarify a point on Lang's eligibility when he was hired. I wish the city the best of luck. I know if I was looking for a top cop spot Sandusky is the last place I would look. To much confusion on the commssion and a non-existant city manager.
richrs....no, I should start writing to whom I am speaking. This new system gets confusing, doesn't it. I agree that if anyone was looking for a top cop spot, with all our confusion, no one would really look here. We don't have the best rep in the state. I agree with all you say because its true. If the commissioners showed more continuity instead of trying to be the ONLY one working it, that might be a good start, but they don't work that way. Every man or woman for themselves seems to be how they work. Sad but true. They just don't show any cooperation. And our city manager gets buffaloed at every turn. She can't do anything. I do know she has people against her....that is sad. Again, from the commissioners who fight her tooth and nail. So if anyone really checks US out they wouldn't want to work here anyway. It will take a STRONG person to be the chief of police. Someone who can stand up to all this.
And frankly we need stronger and more compliant and 'work together" commissioners who want to cooperate as a team. Right now we don't have that either. I dont know if they exist truthfully.
Most often reports investigating the person paying the bill aren't very critical. I never expected the committee to say anything other than what they did. We will never know what really went on.
old pirate....what do you mean?
Cukoo Cukoo
Alright....I take it to mean you think I am a cukoo! If so, why? I will love hearing your answer to this one. Be specific. And don't answer with our two dumb words again. Just answer the question.
I hope the commissioners explain the next plan in full Monday night. I spoke with Commissioner Brown and left with more questions about the deadline.
Well, did you get your answers?

A pet goldfish is off-the-hook and alive after a micro-surgery removes a tumor from his brain.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that 27-year-old William

The North Olmsted man was given
probation on a drunken-driving conviction on Feb. 5. That's when authorities
say he took to Facebook to post comments such as "stop shooting up schools
and start shooting cops in courthouses."
Another said, "Kill your

Bement told the judge Wednesday
that he was just venting and never intended for anybody to feel threatened. He
said he did it for "shock value."

Sat Radio – Still Waiting
The FCC is taking its time in completing the satellite radio merger deal. While it's anyone's guess as to which way the decision will go, the feud continues about the pros and cons of the deal. Once the deal passed the DOJ, Radio magazine posted a survey question asking you to vote on your thought about the possiblie conditions the FCC might include with the deal. I think it's likely that the deal will be approved by the FCC, and it will include a conditions. A few days ago, two congressmen sent a letter to FCC Chairman Kevin Martin echoing the idea. The congressmen said that they do not support or oppose the merger, but urge the FCC to include some requirements if the deal is approved. I wonder which lobbying group got them to do that.
Of course this is how politics work. There's always a deal and a compromise. The Congressional letter doesn't get any closer to completing the deal, but keeping it at the top of the discussion list will prevent it from being ignored.

"But what do I know - I've always thought they should drop the arms tree from warriors and replace it with a classic RPG 'berserker' role, and Fury should be more of a precision assault role - but Blizz has the exact opposite role.... :) "
But Fury IS the classic berzerker? It's called Fury, isn't it? So confused. You don't get much more berzerker than Titan's Grip. In fact, its exactly like Diablo II's Barbarians and their ability to wield twin 2-handers as they Flurried and Whirlwinded all over the place.
I mean, I admit Bladestorm fits better for Fury than Arms -- I mean, what's more precise than spinning around like a lethal dervish for several seconds -- but hey, Arms need some AOE love.

Illinois Governor Pat Quinn reports that Illinois has added 80,000 jobs through foreign firms since he took office.
Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity spokeswoman Sandra Jones says Quinn's figures come from a report from Dun & Bradstreet Credibility Corp.
A University of Illinois economist says that the increase is possible, but much of it is automatic.
Some international companies that want to do business in Illinois will add if they need the workers no matter who is in office.

CASTINE, Maine - Where do most eye injuries happen? Many people believe they happen most often on the job in places such as factories and construction sites. Seems to make sense since there are physical risks in those jobs, but such thinking is a myth at best.
Nearly half of all eye injuries happen in the home according to a recent survey by the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Ocular Trauma. More than 40% were caused by activities such as "home repairs, yard work, cleaning and cooking." Of those injuries in the home, more than a third occurred in living areas indoors. These facts are just some of the information supporting Eye Injury Prevention Month in July. Our concern for students and families engaged in home and recreation activities during summer break reminds us to share this very important information on eye injury prevention.
Maine Maritime Academy is no stranger to the need for vision protection as we educate students to pursue a multitude of careers in the maritime industry. Use of protective equipment, for eyes and ears, is a year-round requirement for students, faculty, and staff when performing risky activities.
For example, according to the rules for the use of the welding lab, "Safety Glasses must be worn at all times, even under a welding helmet or full face shield." Bookstore manager, Audrey Bradford, notes that the bookstore carries two types of eye protection—one for use in activities such as chemistry and the other a set of basic safety glasses.
During Eye Injury Prevention Month, the Welding Laboratory at Maine Maritime Academy is outfitting all the welding booths with autodarkening welding helmets. These state-of-the-art helmets provide clear, safe vision of the work area up to the instant that an electric welding arc is struck. In one 20,000th of a second, faster than the eye can detect, the helmet lens darkens to the appropriate protective shade for viewing the intense light of a welding arc. Students will be able to cut, grind, weld, and remove slag while never having to lift their helmets. For maximum safety, the helmets block 99.9 % of ultraviolet light whether clear or darkened.
Protective eyewear can prevent of to 90% of eye injuries, according to the eyeSmart website of the American Academy of Ophthalmology. Other interesting information on the eyeSmart website includes:
· Men are more likely than women to sustain an eye injury.
· More than 40% of eye injuries are associated with sports or recreational activities.
· Sun exposure can also damage eyes in addition to chemicals, dust, and objects.
· Of the injuries reported in the survey, more than 78% of people were not wearing any eyewear.
For more information on preventing eye injuries at home and work, prevention and care for children's eye injuries, and data on protective eyewear, check out the eyeSmart website at http://www.geteyesmart.org.
For more information about the new welding helmets being made available for all the MMA welding booths, see the Miller Electric Inc. website at: http://www.millerwelds.com/products/welding_protection/head_face/helmets/performance/

Just finished packaging the latest batch of kickstarter mix tapes - all the thank you letters are typed and signed, all the tapes are wrapped up and sealed, all the addresses double-checked, I'll head to the local USPS in the morning to get them out to everyone as soon as possible!
