This is one of our favorite parks. It is green and peaceful with an interesting museum about the Oregon Trail. Sites have 30-amp service and water. There are 2 sewer dumps. Sites are adequate in length and shaded. We will return as often as possible. - codgette

This is a pretty park set along the Snake River. There are two loops. The lower loop did not appear to have any sites with views of the river, while the upper loop, set on a bluff above the river, does have sites with views. The sites are spacious and open with gravel pads. Although the park is open year round, the water may be turned off in the colder months due to freezing temperatures. The water was on when we were there in mid-March, but we woke up to a frozen water hose! This park had a complicated fee structure which we were left to puzzle out on our own as we never saw the camp host or ranger. - BruceandKathyWA

We stayed 2 nights in this park. We had a spacious & level gravel back-in site. We enjoyed the Oregon Trail History Center very much. It is free & very informative. It's open Tuesday through Saturday until 4 PM.
Due to an ill family member, we needed a comfortable place to stay for a couple of days. The park was nearly full on Saturday when we arrived & there was a large group of 4-5 rigs that detracted from the peace & quiet.
I think the larger issue for us was the cost of this park. The lower loop (which is much newer) is closed for the winter. This leaves only the upper loop available for camping. The water is shut off for the winter at each site & in the main bath/shower house. There is a small building just inside the entrance that has one toilet each for men & women & no showers. So we paid $29.00/night for a nice site & an electrical hook-up. If we had arrived Monday through Thursday, the cost per night would have been $17.19.
We researched this park beforehand & anticipated spending $30/night but we did not anticipate that there would be no water hook-up at our site and no showers available OR that we would pay nearly 50% less if we had arrived Monday through Thursday. The Idaho State Park web site did not contain this information & their web site was not mobile-friendly. However, given all this, we would choose to stay here again. The location is close to I-84 & the park is lovely. - dawnbmoore

Gravel/lawn site, but the back in sites are old paved and fairly level- least #7. Good amounts of TV channels, WiFi a little on the slow side. I can hear the trains maybe 1/2 mile from us. This place seems to be right in town with houses all around it. - 1200bruce

Well manicured and easy to find park. Plenty of grass. A very park like setting. Picnic table with grass and trees at each site. Level concrete slabs. They have two on site Wi-Fi towers but I was unable to connect. Single, private showers. Laundry and cable. Leash free pet park is being built. They are also expanding for more sites. Quiet time is 9pm to 9am. Most all sites are pull thru and all sites have a lamp post. We would stay here again. - EggerMar

We liked this state park very much. It is located out in the middle of nowhere so shopping requires some planning. There really is no place to park at the Visitor's Center with your RV. We had a reservation so check in was not required. The campground loops are located a mile or so from the Visitor's Center. We stayed in the new section which is wide open with few trees and is much better for a big rig. Site was level and utilities adequate. Very nice dump station with easy access. Did not check out or use the bathhouse. Verizon cell/mifi worked fine. We arrived on a Saturday for 3 nights and by Sunday, we were the only campers in our loop. For those with military benefits, Mountain Home AFB is about a 25 mile drive and has a nice BX/Commissary. We would stay here again if in the area. - roadking

Very well maintained, clean fully functioning facilities. A bit eerie for us pulling in late to be the only campers, but high summer on a weekday is off season as it is the desert and hot. Great amenities with 2 lakes with fish, an Observatory, programs available on weekends, and a decent little visitor's center. Then there is the amazing 3 plus dunes it is named for. The kids went "sand boarding" and had a great time on the dunes on rented boards. Good facility and a gem of a find for our "breather day" - BC_fly_fisher

We stayed at the Broken Wheel campground, which is the older of the two. The advantage is there are some trees that provide limited shade. It was 100 degrees when we were there. A little pricey for what you get. The bathrooms and showers were adequate as were the connections. The picnic table was full of bird poop. There are sites with shelters for the picnic tables. If you are going to visit, visit when the observatory program is available. This is worth the trip. Also, go on the scorpion hunt with the park ranger, at night. They are luminescent with UV light. My kids loved it! Do not go in the dead of summer - too hot to enjoy the dunes. A bit too pricey. - silver2007

This is our second stay, last summer we stayed a month and wanted to return if only for a few days. The park is immaculate, the staff is great and people are friendly here.
They have a great dog run, a very nice pool and hot tub. Lots of mature shade trees and large areas of grass between sites, long pull thru's.
We will return here again! - pheasantplucker57

This place is a wow! Best showers/restrooms we've seen. Individual, spacious bathrooms with a great shower! Exceedingly clean. Spaces are very level, easy to access, spacious. All hookups were easily accessible. Their grounds included a salt water swimming pool, really nice playground and dog area. We wished we could have stayed more than one night, but we're on our way home. Only negative was internet which was like most RV parks, not always reliable. Staff very friendly and accommodating. - Martin and Beth

We stayed as C2C members. Charged $3/night for 50 amp and $1/night service charge. The nearest real city is Boise around 75 miles from the campground. Mountain Home, ID is about 23 miles and barely has the basic necessities. As other reviewers mention, the last 3 miles are gravel, which creates a LOT of dust. The park is overrun with ground squirrels or some type of prairie rodents that dig holes everywhere, except for the lawn right behind the office/club house. The owner took us around the campground to show us which sites we could choose from that had 50 amp. There were only 3...one was taken, the other had tree limbs too low for us to get our rig into, so we took the remaining one. Most of the sites had a cement patio and a kind of 3 sided shelter (outdated and needing repairs) for the picnic table. We couldn't actually get close enough to the patio because the pad for the rig was gravel, unlevel, and much lower than the patio. It really wouldn't take much to run through the gravel sites with rake on a tractor to level them out. They do serve breakfasts on the weekends and have a nice pool. The club house smelled musty. The owner carefully controlled a book exchange--you had to have a certain type of book to exchange before you could take one (no romance novels) that only she could approve. Be careful if you take walks on the gravel road...I encountered a rattle snake while taking a bike ride. Oh yeah, also watch out for the cows on the road...they are open range. We did drive further into the mountains...very remote, very pretty, and a lot of gravel roads. Other than that, there wasn't really much to do in the immediate area (within 15-20 min drive). Will not likely stay here again. - JS Dobson

What a gem! We found this park from our Resort Parks International book and are we ever glad we did. After leaving Hwy 20, you take a dirt road (level) for about 2 miles and arrive at this great park. You have beautiful views of the Camas Reservoir, trees at every spot, picnic table at you site on a concrete base, all back-ins, and lots of green grass. The park is beautiful and very well maintained. Super friendly people and especially enjoyed talking with the owner. We originally came for 2 days, but had to extend for another 2. If you are in the area we highly recommend you spend some time at this lovely park. Cannot wait to come again. - KomfortTravelers

The staff was VERY friendly. It's a bit remote, but that's the whole point. The sunsets were amazing and we saw a ton of antelope/deer. I would definitely recommend this campground for those wanting to truly get away. The pool was refreshing during hot days. - Claire Eaton

Small park adjacent to Carmela Winery and golf course, which runs along Snake River. Level sites, shade trees. Sites were reasonably spaced. Staff was very friendly. Winery had wine tastings, as well as a restaurant with a bar. Campsite was close to historic Oregon Trail info and 3 Island Crossing where pioneers crossed the Snake River on the way to Oregon. Stayed an extra day just to do sightseeing. Would stay here again. - oldguyinrv

This is a standard RV park. The things that make it stand out however are the restaurant, excellent golf (9/18 holes, well groomed course), and winery - good choices and some very good selections. Added bonus is the history of the area. - DennisK

The campground has pull through sites available. The people were friendly and accommodating. The electrical service in the park was installed in the 30s or 40s. We observed very wide swings in the voltage as we turned on various appliances. We only able to run one air conditioner and had turn that off to run the microwave . Although Wi-Fi is available, it is $6.99 per day . It was more cost effective to use our Verizon MiFi. The park is very well maintained. The are grassy areas around each site. No picnic tables, shower houses, or other services. It was a great place to overnight. We will use this park again, hopefully for a few days so we can enjoy the restaurant, golf, and vineyards. - SunnyHoward

Nice place with nice owners! We wanted to attend the Historic Opera house dinner show, and they booked our reservation for us... very helpful. The owners have recently taken it over during the past year and seem to be getting things in shape. The sites were clean and nicely shaded. The facility is in a good location close to the cute little town of Glenns Ferry. Be sure and visit the state park and visitor center, museum, and the fun Historic Opera House. Several fun businesses in town too. Be sure as everyone says, say hello to Romeo... a four legged delight! Park is very pet friendly with nice grounds. cell service and WiFi. - Bernadette Newman

What a gem. This little park is clean, easy to get into even for a 40' motorhome towing, and friendly. The new owner was very helpful. Any review prior to November 2014 should be ignored as that is when the current owner took over. The buildings are all freshly painted and the grounds are clean and welcoming. It is quiet except for the occasional train in the distance. The freeway noise is practically nonexistent. We will definitely stay here again and will highly recommend Trail Break to friends. Be sure to say Hi to Romeo and give him a pat on the head. - Team 2Bs

We were greeted by one of the owners as we pulled in, and he knew who we were! He helped guide us into our site and offered to assist us with hooking up. Check-in was quick and easy. This park is a gem. It's clean and beautiful with many large trees and a large, manicured lawn area. There is grass and mature trees between each of the level sites with plenty of room for slide outs for each RV. There's plenty of space to walk the dog. The owner stopped by later to advise us that fresh coffee is available at 6:00 a.m. Next to us were 2 sets of RVer's that are regular campers who come here several times per year. Everyone was welcoming, friendly and inviting. We loved, loved, loved this place. We will stop here every time we come through Idaho. If we didn't have reservations elsewhere, we would have stayed longer. GPS directions worked perfectly, and the park was easy to locate. - J rys

This campground is a bargain but it's 10 miles off the interstate and out of the way if you are just passing through. Like many military FamCamps, you get a good site with good hookups but not much else. They have an older washer & dryer (both worked fine) and each site has a picnic table and grill. That's about it for amenities. Trees make satellite access challenging. We had daily dust storms which are common here in Spring. They don't let you rinse the dust off either. Some sites are 30 Amp and others are 50 Amp and there's no way to tell which sites are which without walking around and looking at each one. Laundry room and bath rooms were swept but not particularly clean. They don't take reservations which means you drive the 10 miles to the base before you know for sure if a site is available. They were never full while we were there. Definitely use the commercial gate as you won't be able to navigate the curves coming in the main gate! You can depart through the main gate. We'd stay again but for an overnight passing through. Both ATT & Verizon had good signals. - Danno

Clean sites, full-service, clean power, water had good pressure. This suits for a perfect jump off point for Boise or other surrounding adventures. Self service payment. Camp host is kind and attentive to the property. Easy to navigate to the campground, but getting through the gate can be somewhat tricky. During the week, big rigs must use a second commercial gate for entry to the base, but once through the gate, it's still an easy shot to the campground. - 2cockadoodledoo

The Jiaqing Emperor (Chinese: 嘉慶帝; pinyin: Jiāqìng Dì; Wade–Giles: Chia1-ch'ing4 Ti4; Mongolian: Sayishiyaltu Yirugertu Khaan, 13 November 1760 – 2 September 1820), personal name Aisin Gioro Yongyan, was the seventh emperor of the Manchu-led Qing dynasty, and the fifth Qing emperor to rule over China from 1796 to 1820. He was the 15th son of the Qianlong Emperor. During his reign, he prosecuted Heshen, the corrupt favourite of his father, and attempted to restore order within the Qing Empire and curb the smuggling of opium into China.
Early years[edit]
Yongyan was born in the Old Summer Palace, 8 km (5 mi) northwest of the walls of Beijing. His personal name, "Yongyan" (永琰), was later changed to "Yongyan" (顒琰) when he became the emperor. The Chinese character for yong in his name was changed from the more common 永 to the less common 顒. This novelty was introduced by the Qianlong Emperor, who believed that it was not proper to have a commonly used Chinese character in an emperor's personal name due to the longstanding practice of naming taboo in the imperial family.
Yongyan was the 15th son of the Qianlong Emperor. His mother was Noble Consort Ling, the daughter of Wei Qingtai (魏清泰), a Han Chinese official whose family had been long integrated into the Manchu Eight Banners as part of a Han Banner. She was posthumously honoured as "Empress Xiaoyichun" after Yongyan became the emperor. In 1818, the Jiaqing Emperor officially converted his mother's family from Han Chinese to Manchu by transferring them from the Han Banners to the Manchu Banners and changing their family name from "Wei" to the Manchu-sounding "Weigiya".
The Qianlong Emperor originally had two other sons in mind for succeeding him, but both of them died early from diseases, hence in December 1773 he secretly chose Yongyan as his successor. In 1789, the Qianlong Emperor instated Yongyan as "Prince Jia of the First Rank" (嘉親王; or simply "Prince Jia").
Accession to the throne[edit]
In October 1795, the 60th year of his reign, the Qianlong Emperor announced his intention to abdicate in favour of Prince Jia. He made this decision because he felt that it was disrespectful for him to rule longer than his grandfather, the Kangxi Emperor, who was on the throne for 60 years. Prince Jia ascended the throne and adopted the era name "Jiaqing" (Chinese: 嘉慶; Manchu: ᠰᠠᡳᠴᡠᠩᡤᠠ ᡶᡝᠩᡧᡝᠨ saicungga fengšen) in February 1796, hence he is historically known as the Jiaqing Emperor. For the next three years however, the Jiaqing Emperor was emperor in name only because decisions were still made by his father, who became a Taishang Huang (emperor emeritus) after his abdication.
After the death of the Qianlong Emperor in the beginning of February 1799, the Jiaqing Emperor took control of the government and prosecuted Heshen, a favourite official of his father. Heshen was charged with corruption and abuse of power, stripped of his titles, had his property confiscated, and ordered to commit suicide. Heshen's daughter-in-law, Princess Hexiao, a sister of the Jiaqing Emperor, was spared from punishment and given a few properties from Heshen's estates.
At the time, the Qing Empire faced internal disorder, most importantly the large-scale White Lotus (1796–1804) and Miao (1795–1806) rebellions, as well as an empty imperial treasury. The Jiaqing Emperor engaged in the pacification of the empire and the quelling of rebellions. He endeavored to bring China back to its 18th-century prosperity and power. However, due in part to large outflows of silver from the country as payment for the opium smuggled into China from British India, the economy declined.
Court intrigues and incidents[edit]
Members of the Qing imperial family tried to assassinate him twice – in 1803 and in 1813. The princes involved in the attempts on his life were executed. Other members of the imperial family, numbering in the hundreds, were sent into exile.[1][2][3]
Renaming Vietnam[edit]
The Jiaqing Emperor refused the Vietnamese ruler Gia Long's request to change his country's name to Nam Việt. He changed the name instead to Việt Nam.[4]
Opposition to Christianity[edit]
The Great Qing Code includes one statute titled "Prohibitions Concerning Sorcerers and Sorceresses" (禁止師巫邪術). In 1811, a clause was added to it with reference to Christianity. It was modified in 1815 and 1817, settled in its final form in 1839 under the Daoguang Emperor, and abrogated in 1870 under the Tongzhi Emperor. It sentenced Europeans to death for spreading Catholicism among Han Chinese and Manchus. Christians who would not repent their conversion were sent to Muslim cities in Xinjiang, to be given as slaves to Muslim leaders and beys.[5]
Chinese nobility[edit]
Jiaqing granted the title of Wujing Boshi (五经博士; 五經博士; Wǔjīng Bóshì) to the descendants of Han Yu.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]

Death and burial[edit]
On 2 September 1820, the Jiaqing Emperor died at the Rehe (Jehol) Traveling Palace (熱河行宫), 230 km (140 mi) northeast of Beijing, where the imperial court was in summer quarters. The Draft History of Qing did not record a cause of death. Some have alleged that he died after being struck by lightning, but others prefer the theory that he died of a stroke as the emperor was quite obese. He was succeeded by his second son, Mianning, who became known as the Daoguang Emperor.
Renzong was interred amidst the Western Qing Tombs, 120 km (75 mi) southwest of Beijing, in the Changling (昌陵; lit. "splendid tomb") mausoleum complex.

text: The success of electronic authentication systems, be it eID card systems or Internet authentication systems such as CardSpace, highly depends on the provided level of user-privacy. Thereby, an important requirement is an efficient means for revocation of the authentication credentials. In this paper we consider the problem of revocation for certificate-based privacy-protecting authentication systems. To date, the most efficient solutions for revocation for such systems are based on cryptographic accumulators. Here, an accumulate of all currently valid certificates is published regularly and each user holds a witness enabling her to prove the validity of her (anonymous) credential while retaining anonymity. Unfortunately, the users' witnesses must be updated at least each time a credential is revoked. For the know solutions, these updates are computationally very expensive for users and/or certificate issuers which is very problematic as revocation is a frequent event as practice shows. In this paper, we propose a new dynamic accumulator scheme based on bilinear maps and show how to apply it to the problem of revocation of anonymous credentials. In the resulting scheme, proving a credential's validity and updating witnesses both come at (virtually) no cost for credential owners and verifiers. In particular, updating a witness requires the issuer to do only one multiplication per addition or revocation of a credential and can also be delegated to untrusted entities from which a user could just retrieve the updated witness. We believe that thereby we provide the first authentication system offering privacy protection suitable for implementation with electronic tokens such as eID cards or drivers' licenses.

Earl Thomas, Russell Wilson Looking To Be Legendary
Seahawks free safety Earl Thomas and quarterback Russell Wilson spoke with the media following day two of training camp at Renton's Virginia Mason Athletic Center yesterday, and the two told reporters about how their relationship has blossomed on and off the field.
Thomas, who at 25 years old is the same age as Wilson despite entering the NFL two years before the Seahawks quarterback, said he and Wilson compete each day to see who can stay at team headquarters the longest. Thomas says he's seen Wilson continue to find ways to up his already impressive game.
"He's a different guy," Thomas said of Wilson's jump from year two to year three in the League. "He's more in control. He's giving me a hard time, kind of looking me off. Sometimes I think he holds it a little longer because no pass rush is coming.
"But he's on the right track. He's a great leader. He watches film, just like I watch film." Read

The Seahawks made a couple more roster moves on the second day of camp, releasing defensive tackle Dewayne Cherrington and signing second-year safety Steven Terrell and rookie linebacker Brandon Denmark.

Elbows: Minimizing Fingerboard Injuries

Is it healthier to have the grips set up horizontally as most other hang boards do?

The whole architecture was optimized in efficient pipeline and parallel design way to speed up and achieve higher hardware utilization. Adopted time division multiplex (TDM) design to realize the prediction step and update step using the same architecture, which reduced the size of the circuit. Exploited embedded mirror symmetric boundary extension technique to optimize the architecture for 1-D DWT. The architecture was coded in Verilog HDL, implemented in a FPGA, and verified by a real-time platform which comprises a CMOS image sensor, a FPGA and a PC.

Rent-a-mill: Couple earns £100,000 a year letting their seven-bedroom Old Mill home out to holidaymakers
- Gary and Sandra Coyne upped sticks and moved into a derelict windmill
- After seven years in The Old Mill they couple now make £100,000 a year renting it out to holidaymakers
Gary and Sandra Coyne both had good jobs, a house in a desirable area and a comfortable lifestyle. So what made them exchange all that for the chaos that comes with renovating an old property – and sharing it with live-in builders?
The answer is a derelict windmill in Stoke Ferry near King's Lynn, Norfolk, which Gary spotted while browsing the internet.
At the time the Coynes had not even decided to move from their home in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, let alone relocate to Norfolk. But Gary, who had been working as a restaurant manager in London, fancied a change of pace and the couple could see the benefits of having more space for their five-year-old twins Louis and Rory.
Change of pace: Sandra and Gary Coyne fell in love with The Old Mill in Stoke Ferry and decided to do it up to live a rural life
For Sandra, 44, an air hostess based at Heathrow, moving to Norfolk presented the prospect of a very long commute. However, after visiting the property just once, the couple fell in love with it, and in 2005 they bought The Old Mill, complete with two-and-half acres of land, for £315,000.
The property comprises a mill house and an adjoining Grade II listed tower. Both needed a lot of updating – especially the tower, which hadn't been used for nearly 100 years except by nesting birds.
To complicate matters further, the Coynes' house in Gerrards Cross took a long time to sell, which meant the couple had to borrow the deposit for the mill and rent their old home until they found a buyer.
During one stage of the building work at their new property, the Coynes found themselves living in the four-bedroom mill house with their builders. The team knocked out walls to transform four small rooms into a large open-plan kitchen and living space. New bathrooms were also added.
The Coynes did not have a kitchen for three months, so meals were cooked on a camping stove, and the dishes were rinsed in the shower. As a tidy person, Sandra hated the chaos of living with builders, and confesses she was unprepared for all the upheaval.
Renovated: The Coynes in their living room, complete with the old millstone
Gary, 47, who gave up his restaurant job, did as much of the work as he could himself, including removing all the windows to repair broken panes before refitting them. But when a firm came to sandblast the interior walls to take them back to the original Victorian red brick, they failed to cover the windows, destroying all Gary's hard work.
The tower's ground floor has now been turned into a formal dining room with a circular table. The floor above is a games room and there are bedrooms on the next three floors. The final two floors have been transformed into a gallery with views over the surrounding countryside. The ground-floor dining room has underfloor heating, but the tower's listed status meant it was not possible to plumb in bathrooms. Instead, a glass walkway from the first floor of the tower links it to the house and its three bathrooms. In the winter, the upper floors of the tower are heated with plug-in oil radiators.
It took nearly two years, but the work was finished in time for Sandra's 40th birthday party at the end of 2007. The improvements cost the Coynes about £150,000.
They are delighted with what they've achieved, although Sandra admits there were times when she would have gladly scrapped the entire project. 'I would remember back to when we lived in Gerrards Cross and had two good salaries, a comfortable house and a settled life, and wondered what on earth we were doing,' she says.
The Coynes soon realised they had the ideal property to rent out and began letting The Old Mill as a holiday home in 2008 when they were away.
Then, in July 2008, Sandra spotted a farmhouse in nearby Boughton. The Coynes raised the money to buy it and moved out of The Old Mill, enabling them to rent it all year round. The Old Mill, which now has seven bedrooms and three bathrooms and sleeps 15, has proved a big hit as a holiday let. And with Gary's new private chef service offering holidaymakers gourmet meals, the property earns the couple £100,000 a year.
'We do everything ourselves – we want everything to be perfect,' says Sandra.
The Old Mill costs from £2,500 a week through holidaylettings.co.uk

Ready to win
Larsen Agee likes to chase boys.
What separates the West Valley cross country standout from the rest of the female population is that fact that she literally chases boys.
"I like to run with the boys every chance I get," the red-headed senior explained. "I like running with my teammates, but it's a different experience to run with the boys' team. For one thing, when I run with the girls I'm out in front. When I run with the boys, I'm chasing them. It's a challenge just to keep up with them."
Most of the time, it's the rest of the field working to keep up with Agee.
Agee is poised for a run at a third consecutive State 3A girls high school cross country championship race. As a sophomore, Agee helped the Eagles to a seventh-place team finish. As a junior she ran under 20 minutes to place 29th.
But it all started with the hurdles.
As a freshman, Agee ran track for the Eagles ("Cross country was a little scary," she confided).
"Larsen was a pretty good hurdler as a freshman," coach Jim McLachlan said. She ran sub-50-second times in the 300 hurdles, and she was a pretty good high jumper. She jumped 4-10, but high jumping was hard on her nerves and we started to gravitate toward running distances."
That's when West Valley assistant track and cross country coach Gene Blankenship made his sales pitch.
"He's the one who talked me into it," Agee laughed. "He just told me I ought to think about running cross country. He thought it would make me a better track athlete."
Once she addressed her initial fear, Agee made her presence felt.
"Last year, when Kristyne Westerman, our No. 1, couldn't run, Larsen really took off and became our No. 1," McLachlan said. "She ran well. As a matter of fact, she was showing signs of taking off like that as a sophomore.
"She had a really good state meet last year and followed that up with an outstanding track season. She worked hard over the summer and is just having a great season. She has set some very good goals for herself and she's accomplishing them. She works hard and always seems to do a little extra."
Agee heads into the final two weeks of the regular season uninjured and ready to run.
And ready to win.
"I don't see any reason why she won't have a great state meet this year," McLachlan said. "She's won two races already this year and that's a big deal. A lot of kids can run well and place high, but it takes a little something extra to go out and actually win a race.
"When she wins a race, she realizes she can run with anyone."
McLachlan likes Agee's competitive drive.
"She finished second in the one down at Clarkston and then turned around and beat the girl that won soundly in our league meet," he said "She's had some very good races with Jo E. Mayer, the No. 1 from East Valley, and North Central's Mary Graesser. Those three are the three best Class 3A runners (in the Greater Spokane League)."
Agee and Mayer have traded victories over one another this season – an improvement from last year's state meet, where Mayer finished ninth, 50 seconds ahead of Agee.
"So far, throughout the season, I've gotten progressively better," Agee said. "I'm doing better than I did last year.
"Jo E. and I have traded back and forth – she's beaten me; I've beaten her. She may have improved during the season since the last time we raced, but I've been keeping an eye on her."
Agee said she learned a great deal about running a state championship meet – information she plans to use to her advantage one final time.
"There are so many people at the state meet," she said. "My sophomore year running state the whole team made it. I think some of us took advantage of being there. It was a little like, 'Oh, look, we made it here. It doesn't really matter what we do now.' I don't think I ran my best that year.
"My junior year I went as an individual – my team didn't get to go. I placed 29th, and it was a little nerve-wracking being out there without my teammates. I was getting better, but I wasn't at my potential."
McLachlan feels Agee's potential will carry her on to run at the college level.
"She wants to," he said. "She's not over-trained or anything like that. She'll be a great asset for anyone who decides to pursue her."

Guilty Myers defendants sentenced
By MATT FOUNTAIN
The trial of Rhonda Wisto and Frank York is over.
On May 8, the last of five defendants who faced conspiracy and murder charges in the killing of 15-year-old Santa Maria teen Dystiny Myers were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
During the speedy hearing, a standing-room-only courthouse filled with green-ribbon-wearing supporters of the Myers family listened as the victim's family and pastor addressed the defendants.
"The last 33 months have been the longest of my life," Kathy Clark, Myer's grandmother, said. "Today's a new beginning for our family. It's a new day for Dystiny—today, she's free."
"You said she was a nobody. Well, look around, lady, because you're sitting there all alone," Myers' mother, Aileen, told Wisto. "I do not forgive you at all, and may you rot."
Neither York nor Wisto looked at or addressed the family, though York's attorney read aloud a letter his client had written accepting responsibility and apologizing to the family.
Following their clients being led away, both defense attorneys quickly exited the courthouse through another doorway.

South Australians have been urged to start taking precautions as very hot conditions are forecast for most of the state for a week.
Temperatures will surge into the 40s early next week and are expected to remain there until Friday.
SA Ambulance Service operations team leader Bryan Ward says prolonged periods of heat can exacerbate pre-existing medical conditions.
''We encourage people to start taking precautions in preparation for the upcoming hot weather and to check on those who may be vulnerable to the heat, such as elderly family members, elderly neighbours and children,'' he said.
''We generally tend to notice an increase in workload at around day four to five of a heatwave.''
Mr Ward said extra ambulance crews would be deployed if necessary.
SA Health said tips to beat the heat included drinking plenty of water, avoiding alcohol and caffeine, wearing light, loose and comfortable closing as well as a hat and sunscreen, staying out of the sun during the hottest part of the day and avoiding outdoor exercise or strenuous physical activity.
It said precautions to take before the heat included stocking up on water and groceries to avoid constant trips to the shops, testing any fans or air-conditioners that may not have been used for some time and swapping phone numbers with a neighbour or friend with a view to keeping in contact during the hot spell.
The State Emergency Service said the hot weather could also bring a number of safety concerns including the risk of power cuts and trees dropping branches without warning.
The extreme conditions will also have fire authorities on high alert with police expected to instigate Operation Nomad patrols which check on known firebugs.

Washington - Two weeks ago President Bush released his first National
Security Strategy document, outlining the components and principles guiding
American security policy in the 21st century. The Bush strategy declares
that the United States should use its "unparalleled military strength and
great economic and political influence" to establish a balance of power that
"favors human freedom" and is aimed at defeating the threat posed by
"terrorists and tyrants."
In historic significance, President Bush's strategy paper has been compared
to President Harry Truman's containment doctrine which guided American
policy through a half-century of the Cold War.
A team of Brookings scholars has completed an initial study evaluating and
analyzing the Bush strategy. The study finds positive elements, some
strengths and some weaknesses. It identifies what the Brookings team refers
to as shortcomings in four specific areas:
The authors of the Brookings evaluation - James Steinberg, vice president
and director of the Foreign Policy Studies program, and Senior Fellows Ivo
Daalder and James Lindsay - will explain and discuss their evaluation. They
will also answer questions from the audience.

The liquidator of collapsed hedge fund Weavering Capital Management yesterday continued to hammer away at the firm's founder.
Magnus Peterson was little more than a serial liar who repeatedly inflated the values of Weavering's assets, lawyer Robert Anderson said in court yesterday. The liquidator has sued Peterson and several other Weavering employees over the 2009 collapse of the fund.
"Investors pick up that there are interest rate swaps in the accounts, they're then sent more up-to-date financial information, which doesn't show any interest rate swaps, and when they ask where the swaps have gone, you lie to them and tell them they are closed out," Anderson said. One on occasion, Anderson said, Peterson told an investor that 80% of the fund's assets were in exchange-traded securities, when in fact it was more than 100% in swaps.
Peterson "continually and royally misled investors," Anderson said, and not just about swaps. Anderson said Peterson continually made "rather optimistic" valuations of companies he had invested in.
"All the investments we see were… forecast to be phenomenally profitable, although ended up making no money whatsoever," he said. All were actually made with the intention of trying "to bolster the balance sheet… in case anybody ever started asking questions."
Peterson defended himself, arguing that his estimates about assets were "very, very rough" and a demonstration that "this whole trial is a reflection of how differently we look at exposure." He also rejected Anderson's read on the investments and valuations, one of which "was looked upon then as something that could be extremely successful."
Weavering collapsed in 2009 after an investigation found that more than 100% of its Macro fund's net assets were tied up in swaps with another Weavering entity. British regulators dropped their probe of Weavering last month, saying there was not a reasonable prospect of winning a conviction, but a Cayman Islands court in August slapped Peterson's younger brother and stepfather, both directors of the Weavering fund, with US$111 million in fines for fraud.
