can you post a pic
I am in SW Louisiana and have been working in, on, or around houses all my life. I have plumbed, roofed, hung vinyl, framed, and wired em, but I can not figure out why you would put a bath tub spigot 6 inches off a tiled shower floor!
This is in a 50 year old house in a rural community, I was looking at it to resell, but I can not figure out what the spigot were for the only thing you can get under them is your feet. You would have to either pull the shower knob up with you feet or bend over to pull it.
Anybody ever see this across the country?????
For washing and rinsing the shower floor without getting your hair wet?
I have never come across one, but the spigot is meant to be used as a "toe tester" so you can test the temperature of the water with your feet as well as flush out any cold water in the line before you turn on the shower, so you don't get scalded or blasted with icy cold water.
Broken promises don't upset me. I just think, why did they believe me? -Jack Handy
I usually put them 12" to 18" above the floor so you do not have to bend over to operate the diverter. They are used so you do not get hit in the face with a jolt of cold water when you turn the valve on. The plumber who put it at 6" above the floor probably figured that it should be 6" above the tub rim so it must also have to be 6" above the floor, not having enough initiative to think why that would be ridiculous.

JV Tanagers slip by the Harrisburg Tigers by Jim Prosser In a game that was closer than the score indicated, the Vermillion Tanagers were topped by the Harrisburg Tigers 44-31 in boys basketball Dec. 10 at Harrisburg.
VHS had been within three going into the fourth period.
�Our defensive intensity improved greatly,� said VHS Coach Troy Terronez. �To hold a team to 11 field goals is a great accomplishment. Now, we need to be patient on offense and take the high percentage shots.�
The Harrisburg varsity jumped in front 8-4 after the first quarter, and held an edge of 10-7 in the second quarter. VHS had an advantage of 13-9 in the third period to shave the deficit to only 27-24 going into the final period.
The loss dropped VHS to a record of 0-2, while Harrisburg varsity improved to 0-1.
VHS made 1 of 12 three-point tries and hit 8 of 14 free throw attempts. The Tanagers made 10 of 33 field goal attempts, while the Harrisburg varsity was 10 of 27 from the field. The Harrisburg varsity made 1 of 10 three-pointers and connected on 21 of 30 free throw attempts.
The Tanagers had several noteworthy individual efforts in defeat.
�We had a number of players contribute,� Coach Terronez said. �Tim Russell and Brett Hogen came off the bench to provide some solid post defense as well as an inside game offensively. Our seniors also gave us a great performance defensively, pulling us within one point in the fourth quarter. Bo Nelson scored 12 points, had 1 steal and pulled down 9 rebounds.�
Individual Stats, VHS: Scoring � Bo Nelson, 12, Cullen Iverson, 5, Derrick Brown, 4, Brett Hogen, 4, Landon Morse, 3, Tim Russell, 3. Rebounds � Nelson, 9, Russell, 5. Assists � Iverson, 2, Hogen, 2. Steals � Iverson, 3, Hogen, 3.
Individual Stats, Harrisburg varsity: Scoring � Aaron Wurgler, 15, Derek DeGeest, 10, Jeremy Breck, 8, Chris Visser, 6, Brian Solko, 3, Paul Doohen, 2. Rebounds � Brech, 10, Solko, 5. Assists � Visser, 3. Steals � DeGeest, 3.
Team rebounds: VHS � 27, Harrisburg varsity � 30. Team fouls: VHS � 24, Harrisburg varsity � 18.

"Thank you for a wonderful product. I highly recommend it. Since taking Super Krill-Omega3™, I have not worried about the mercury you find in fish. There is no after taste, and my lab work is excellent. My doctor said whatever I was doing to continue."
-Alberta T., Patterson, CA
Super Krill Omega3™ may help you:*
For optimum health, you need Omega-3 fatty acids. However, the American diet is loaded with Omega-6 fatty acids and extremely low in healthy Omega-3s to balance them out. In fact, we consume 10 TIMES MORE Omega-6s than Omega-3s! The result? Less than optimal health.
For many folks, the solution for supporting a balanced inflammatory response is... Omega-3s from ordinary fish oil supplements. Unfortunately, fish oil is often tainted with heavy metals and other chemicals. So you're helping one problem, but creating another.
Exciting new research has identified a source of Omega-3 fatty acids that's superior to fish oil supplements. It's highly beneficial and more absorbable. It's called krill oil and it's the primary nutrient in Super Krill-Omega3™ formula.
Krill is a shrimp-like crustacean that abounds in the ocean. In fact, this tiny sea creature is a favorite food of marine life, including Beluga whales.
Super Krill-Omega3™ not only acts as a powerful natural supporter of a balanced inflammatory response, but provides healthy omega-3 fatty acids bound to phospholipids for enhanced absorption.
What's more, every serving of Super Krill-Omega3™ delivers a whopping 10 TIMES the healthy Omega-3 fatty acids as Omega-6 fatty acids. This is more than enough to help offset the imbalanced American diet high in Omega-6 and help you enhance overall health.
At Health Resources™, our products are designed to help you achieve lifelong health-and the same is true of Super Krill-Omega3™. This unique formula contains four highly effective ingredients for promoting a balanced inflammatory response, including:
Enzymotec Krill Oil-This form of krill oil is among the purest available and delivers optimum levels of healthy Omega-3 fatty acids with every serving. With this remarkable nutrient, you get healthy support for your heart, brain and entire body.
Astaxanthin-This remarkable antioxidant is active against free radicals that can damage healthy cells. Astaxanthin also is extremely effective at protecting the krill oil from oxidation to ensure it remains very stable and has a long shelf-life.
Phospholipids-Super Krill-Omega3™ offers huge amounts of phospholipids for maximum absorption. In every serving, you get a guaranteed minimum of 42% phospholipids.
Vitamin A-Another powerful antioxidant to help fight free radicals. Also promotes softer and healthier skin.
"I used to take fish oil. I have been taking Super Krill-Omega3 for 3 months and it is a great difference like day and night.Super Krill-Omega3 has enhanced my joint comfort and I have noticed a dramatic improvement.Super Krill-Omega3 is the most effective supplement that I take."
-James S. Shrewsbury, NJ
"I am very pleased and satisfied with the results I have received from taking Super Krill-Omega3 and highly recommend this product."
-Arthur C., Boynton Beach, Fl
"My doctor recommended taking fish oil for it's beneficial properties, but even with "super pure" brands I couldn't take the fish burps that accompanied them. Now, with Super Krill-Omega3, I get the benefits with none of the nasty side effects. It's good to know I can be assured of the products purity, too! Thank you."
-James C., Corinth, TX

Any tips tricks to making my razr m fast and keeping it that way? Apps to avoid apps to get? Any tips for keeping it smooth would be appreciated
Not sure how much help it is but I make sure to re-boot my phone at least once a week.
Don't get too over loaded with apps, especially ones that update. Keep widgets to a minimum. Don't run live wallpapers. And if you run another launcher, delete all you can from the native(Homescreen) launcher.
- I've heard not to run an antivirus but you have to make up your mind on that one.
- App killers may slow you down also
I also kill the scrolling wallpaper option.

Really app killers? Well that kinda defeats the purpose huh?! Thanks
Is anyone else stumped on how to move apps to SD card? Or know how?
Wow learn something new every day
I have read about a few options for transferring apps to SD-card, all successful methods I have read about basically involve the two primary steps referenced below:
The process not a simple as one would hope, but ...
A method that's been proven on other Razr M's to move our apps to sd as follows:
first: partition your sd card
then: install and use link2sd
Please post back on successful methods you may find.
I will thank you! Before this I had a droid x man those were simpler times I love this phone but some of this stuff is more complicated than I'd like.

Santa's Sleigh visits Darlington residents for fundraising appeal

FATHER Christmas has been spreading festive cheer around Darlington and helping to raise funds for local good causes.

Mark France, from the Round Table, said: "Our helpers and collectors are volunteers and give up their time freely to aid with the sleigh routes in collecting."
The Santa's Sleigh tour will continue this week at the following locations: Hummersknott, Sunday, December 15; Mowden, Monday, December 16; Brinkburn Road, Tuesday, December 17; Whinfield, Wednesday, December 18; the Elton Road area, Thursday, December 19 and High Row, Saturday, December 21.

Local Atmosphere:
The town of Amherst definitely has a very college-town feel, which is reasonable, considering there are like 50,000 college students living in the area. No matter what, however, you're still in the middle of a small town in western Massachusetts, so you'll have to temper your expectations accordingly. The food around here is good, but not great. There's a large mall nearby, so shopping is pretty good, and a free bus system runs through all of the colleges in the area.
Local Atmosphere:
Amherst itself is a nice little town with many families and college professors/staff, as well as a lovely library and town green with many local activities each week and weekend. The greatest boon to attending Amherst, however, is the Five-College Consortium -- the ability to take classes at any of the other four colleges in the region (three liberal arts colleges and one state university, all with very different offerings), and to have such easy access and proximity to the other college campuses and towns. Northampton in particular, which houses Smith College, is a more bustling alternative to Amherst with better music venues and nightlife.
Local Atmosphere:
Small town, great in beginning but gets boring at times.
Local Atmosphere:
Small Town, but Rather Boring – A few typical restaurants - but you will get bored if you focus on "attractions" and "cultural events". However, if you choose to focus on your studies while taking a walk once in a while to enjoy the beautiful NE landscapes, it will be intellectual heaven.
Local Atmosphere:
Very safe college town with lots of restaurants. Convenience store is present but prices are high. Must take a bus in order to get to the grocery store and mall. Not many attractions of interest in the immediate area but thankfully there are plenty of options on campus.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
We haven't gathered enough student surveys yet to rank this school. If you are a student at this school, help out and take the college student survey!
Written by Lem Atanga McCormick
There is not much in Amherst outside of the College. Amherst is the epitome of a college town. Main Street is right next the College, and there you'll find CVS, Starbucks, Fleet Bank, as well as various local shops. The people are, by and large, nice to a degree that stupefies most students from New York City, and you can't walk down the street without a complete stranger nodding and saying hello. The place visibly caters to both UMass and Amherst students. Testimonials to this are the numerous restaurants and pubs on Main Street, and the various sales and special offers that every business owner puts out on the store window. In September, they hang signs that say "Welcome students!!!!!!," complete with all the exclamation points.
Northampton is a 30-minute free bus ride away. It's a town bigger than Amherst and, as such, it is bubblier and livelier. The selection of bars and general hangouts is broader in Northampton than in Amherst, and there are also dance clubs for those who like to get down every once in a while. All in all, Amherst students will generally opt to stay on campus on weekends for two main reasons. First, the drinking age is 21, and Massachusetts cops take the law nitpickingly seriously. Second, and more importantly, the best parties usually happen at the College. Students from Smith and Holyoke (which are, and just simply stating facts, all-girl schools) flock over here for parties, and there is usually is a respectable representation of UMass students, as well. Amherst seniors do go out to bars in town, but the fact remains that nobody ever comes to Amherst because of the town itself.

Use the pushbutton controls to set your humidity, choose a fan speed, view your current humidity level, and program the 24-hour shutoff timer.

The dehumidifier is running constantly to fight to keep our humidity level in our basement at the recommended 50%. I have yet to find a cost-effective product to easily handle the moisture in our basement. I expect it to wear out before the extended warranty so I hope it was worth the extra money! I will say that it is working well to remove mold and mildew and damp/moldy smells in the basement. :)

Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
Great product, works great, but 70 pint model better
Just manages to keep up in my area of use, damp basement
Bought this 60 to replace my 3 yr old 70
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
Easy to set up and to use. Efficient and doesn't make much noise. After a couple of days in use, the new doors in the basement didn't "stick" anymore. Not much difference on the electric bill either.
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
I have a Media Room in my basement and then a half basement. I have had a dehumidifier in there since the house was built and it is not overly damp but will smell if not dehumidified. This unit had the damp smell gone in a day and a half. I liked the auto shutoff when you have reach the humidity level desired. Great unit for the price.
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
Old dehumidifier was blowing fuses and we needed something to dry out our basement. This machine is thirsty and keeps pulling the moisture out of the air. Glad to walk downstairs and have fresh, dry air.
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
This seems to be a quality crafted product. It's nice that the drain hose is included, as I have purchased other dehumidifiers which did not include one. The gravity drain feature works consistently. The fan is quiet on LOW speed, which is the setting it will be on most of the time. Another nice feature is the digital display shows the temperature as well as the humidity level.
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
I use the dehumidifier in a laundry room whose floor slopes down to a floor drain. Depending on which way the humidifier is facing, water can leak from its base. The floor is about 1.8 degrees from horizontal.(This happens when the bucket is in use; I don't know whether it would happen with the drain hose attached.)

Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
This product is working very well in a large basement. It's quiet and does it's work reliably. I recommend without reservation.
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
Purchased it 7/2013 and never owned a Danby product before. I had owned 2 other brand name dehumidifiers and they both had issues, recalls, and or failed prematurely. I never heard of Danby until I started searching. They had the best warranty so I figured I would give them a try. I liked the styling, price, and overall functionality, and that I could order it online and have it delivered in 1-2 days. The only thing I don't really like is that the fan runs continuously, even when the compressor is not running. So it's not the best thing for occupied spaces. However, I run it downstairs in my workshop so it works out great as the fan keeps the air circulated; I think that might be why it runs all the time - it may be designed to keep a constant accurate sample of the air so the humidity can be regulated better to the set point. Oh, almost forgot ... I also liked the easy to hook up external drain/hose that you can route to a drain or sump pump, that is optional to use AND that the optional hose IS included with the dehumidifier.
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
We placed this in our basement to keep moisture down. Pleasantly surprised at how quiet it is compared to our previous dehumidifiers. The fan does run continuously, but for us that's OK as it keep the air moving and thus reduces the chance of mold/mildew forming. We've had this model for only a month, so I don't know about the durability. Therefore, I give it four stars - if it proves to be durable over time (and I think it will), then five stars would be appropriate.
Best Uses
Comments about Danby DDR60A2GP 60 Pint Dehumidifier:
We purchased this dehumidifier for our 1100 square foot finished basement, which, when we moved in 3 months ago, had a distinct musty smell. Seeing as it already clearly had moisture in the air, the fact that we have set up a 125 gallon fish tank down there was not going to make the problem any better. As soon as we plugged the Danby in, it got to work pulling water out of the air. We had to empty the water reservoir daily for the first week or so, because it was so efficient at dehumidifying the air. Now that the backlog of moisture in the basement has been reduced, we only have to empty it every 2-3 days (and it's pretty humid here in our area of Virginia). Bottom line: this Danby does what it says, and is quite effective; our basement no longer smells musty!

A few weeks ago, we had an ice storm and record breaking cold weather that trapped most people in their homes for four days. I personally went a little crazy after two days and was ready to return to the office. I couldn't imagine how people do that kind of thing every day – then I realized they probably weren't thrown in to the middle of it like I was, nor are they sitting in front of their lap top in their living room because they don't own a desk.
That week taught me a lot about what it takes to work from home and the things that would have made my four days in my living room a little more productive and a little less crazy. Here are five tips to being a little more productive at home and a little less distracted.
I know a lot of you work from home – it's a trend that we've seen on the increase over the last few years, and as someone who probably wouldn't like it very much, I'm wondering if any of you ever felt the same. What did you do to make your day more productive at home? Did you hate it at first and now you love it? What happened to make you change your mind?

5424 Troost Ave, Kansas City, MO | Directions 6411039.028501 -94.573900
anytime is open – great burgers, and good music, the place is safe, I am glad they are going to have latin music this saturday, lets go there and practice salsa and spanish
Okay – I tihnk this place is not very good. The food was bad the day I went and service just stinks. Maybe they had a bad day or something not sure. But drinks are okay! Hopefully for who ever they have a good day at the bar!
Students and alumni mingle at University of Missouri-Kansas City's unofficial hangout. – The Scene
UMKC students and alumni congregate at this concrete dive. There's a wooden bar or red vinyl-covered booths. Johns Belushi and Lennon and a giant moose head preside over the crowd from red-and-black walls. Two televisions hang over the bar with a big-screen in the back corner, while 14 more broadcast different events. When a show is on the small stage, dart players will have their backs to the music, but sanctuary lies in an adjoining room with pool tables and Golden Tee.
The Draw
There's nothing fancy, just a standard selection of nine domestics on tap and 20 in bottles, plus imports like Heineken and Amstel for good measure. Exotic tastes may order a cocktail from the full bar. Food is served in huge quantities: burgers weighing a half-pound, the loaded quesadillas can't weigh much less, and spicy buffalo wings are the actual whole wings.
after class happy hour – mike's is very convenient for me and a lot of my friends. it's right across the street from rockhurst university, classes get over around2 or after labs at 5 or 6 and Mike's is a great place to sit down, relax, and unwind from the crapc chemistry classes. Drink specials are great, and burgers are delicious. The pool tables aren't ideal, but in good enough shape to play a few rounds.
Great Dive – This is a great dive! But the food is so so! The live music isn't bad. I would say this place is a great starter bar or if you want to get down and dirty. I would only go there to drink!
Mike's is Mike's...Amen – Mike's is Mike's, thank God!! You can see the kitchen and it looks clean to me. The bathroom (mens) seems pretty clean too, compared to some other popular joints in town. Oh my God.... It's on Troost! Hold on.... Westport and the Plaza are safer....Please! Anyway check it out for yourself instead of relying on these important reviews!
HOT CHICKS – I had soooo much fun at Mike's last night. I've been there a few times but I'm going to make it my new hang out. Cheap drinks, great food and the bartenders rock!!! Chicks aren't bad to look at either.
Swappin! – I was at Mike's the other day, just hang'n with four friends (students like me). In walks TWO of my prime Profs. After an hour of acting like we didn't see each other, we ended up swapping ideas, stories and beers! This place is the first place I've ever rated. I feel slutty, but good! Mike's rocks!
ROO Bad – I went to UMKC and I think they need to find a new hang out! The prices for the drinks are not bad. The food was a little below par for me. Never statyed there long enough to hear live music. Don't even start me on those nasty bathrooms.
Not Very good – I just finshed UMKC and have been to Mikes many times. I have never found it a good place too eat or listen to music. If you want to drink it is a good place. I would start there and then go some where else. I too do not think the place is very clean!

Alford treated the Iowa people with very poorly the entire time he was there - there our countless stories of him treating people poorly. Then the Pierre Pierce case was handled so badly by him that he lost the fan base - they had sold out for basketball for years in good years and bad. The crowds are only now coming back to the team and Carver Hawkeye Arena. Steve Alford is an ego maniac and won't last long in Westwood. And he may end up begging New Mexico to get that 10 year contract back
Did UCLA Make A Good Hire In Steve Alford While Also Making A Mistake?
Is it possible to have made the right choice in relieving a head coach of his duties, made a strong hire to replace him, and still have made a mistake?
Ben Howland's reign at UCLA, for a variety of reasons, had run its course. Despite this season's Pac-12 regular-season title, the program had been slipping in the wrong direction since Howland brought the last of his three consecutive Final Four teams to San Antonio in 2008. His adversarial relationship with the local prep and AAU scene is well documented, and you can't run UCLA in the long term if you can't recruit Los Angeles. It won't work.
After the Bruins predictably were turned down or not entertained by the likes of Shaka Smart and Brad Stevens, Dan Guerrero found himself in a position many ADs are in these days: Trying to salvage a coaching search. In hiring Steve Alford, who did a terrific job elevating New Mexico to a national level, he found a quality coach who is familiar with the region and actually had become a fallback spot for players who were squeezed out by or wanted to leave Howland's program.
Alford is a legendary player and a good coach with a solid track record of success. Iowa certainly hasn't done any better than when he was in charge and won a couple Big Ten tournaments, and New Mexico has earned a 3-seed in the NCAA tournament in two of the past four seasons while the Lobos regularly claimed league titles in a conference where UNLV, San Diego State and, before they departed, BYU were the fancier names.
There's still reason for concern, though, and ample reason to see through Guerrero's press statement bloviating. Alford is, in a lot of ways, a poor man's version of the coach Guerrero just fired. He has a significant ego. He can be prickly with the media. He hasn't handled increasing expectations all that well, with this past week's bizarrely defensive press conference as a recent prime example.
And despite what Guerrero claimed, Alford does not bring an up-tempo style to Westwood. In his last 11 seasons, at Iowa and New Mexico (as far back as KenPom.com goes), Alford's teams ranked just once in the nation's top 100 in adjusted tempo. That was at Iowa in 2004. Only one of his six New Mexico teams was even in the top 150. Three of his six New Mexico teams were in the top 25 in terms of defensive efficiency. Only one of his teams was on offense. Maybe he'll change his approach when he compiles more "national" talent at UCLA, but there's a pretty clear footprint established, and "up-tempo" is not it. Unless Alford wins very big very quickly — and UCLA next season, at least, looks like a pretty significant rebuild — it's hard to see how the highly demanding fanbase will see this as an upgrade.
Alford's move, just a week and a half after he signed a massive 10-year deal at New Mexico and then lost to 14-seed Harvard in the NCAA tournament's round of 64, also creates a really inviting opening in Albuquerque, as well. The Lobos are built to win right now, with a ton of talent returning and a league where several teams will be dropping from this season's standards. The Lobos also have the best fanbase in the league, and the reboot from Alford and the perception of NCAA tournament underachievement, might re-energize them.
You'd imagine that assistant coach Craig Neal will get a long look, and maybe he'd be able to snag his son from Saint Mary's in the process. But the Lobos should at least entertain a national search. It's a good enough program in a good enough league to attract some significant interest, and Alford's new deal that now lies in shreds somewhere shows they're willing to pay. Would they be bold enough to call Howland? Kendall Williams may not like it very much, and Howland's ego may not, either, but if a coachswap were somehow completed, it would be hard to argue New Mexico didn't get the better end of the deal.
Alford treated the Iowa people with very poorly the entire time he was there - there our countless stories of him treating people poorly. Then the Pierre Pierce case was handled so badly by him that he lost the fan base - they had sold out for basketball for years in good years and bad. The crowds are only now coming back to the team and Carver Hawkeye Arena. Steve Alford is an ego maniac and won't last long in Westwood. And he may end up begging New Mexico to get that 10 year contract back
Those kenpom stats don't mean a thing for a coach having to make adjustments to talent levels on hand every year---fairly successfully. Alford is deserving, but UCLA is a very nettlesome place to coach. What we are going to see going forward is closely applied media coverage of every incident that turns up. Overall, it sounds like this journalist is responding to prickly media treatment....fair or unfair....
"Iowa certainly hasn't done any better than when he was in charge and won a couple Big Ten tournaments"
Iowa has spent the past several years digging out from under the rubble that he and Todd Lickliter left. But Iowa is on the upswing right now under a very good coach, Fran McCaffery. The Hawkeyes just missed the NCAA tournament this year with a very young team, and are playing in the NIT semifinals tonight at Madison Square Garden. Watch out for the Hawks next year!!!
Here Andy, here's just another example of some MAJOR info that's been glossed over by much of the media:
Yes, it was a mistake, because they hired an apparently immoral man.
He signed a $10 million contract with new Mexico before the tournament.
He made a promise and gave his word.
If he didn't want to stay for 10 years, he should not have signed the contract.
The NCAA really oughta ban people who do that.
Harvard 73, UCLA 60.
If a coach leaves a program where he's signed a contact, he should sit out a year. Just like the players.
He has major character flaws. Shame on you reporters for not printing these. On a personal level he has no class. Trying giving a tip once in a while you selfish overated prick. He was taught at an early age he was more important than everyone and he really believes it.
I think Alford learned a lot from his obvious mistakes at Iowa. He did a tremendous job at UNM. When he took over in 2007 the program was in terrible shape, especially academically. Now, behind Alford's leadership the UNM men's program is the best in the MWC and one of the best in the west. At UNM his teams won regular season games/titles, they won a ton of road games (almost unheard of in UNM hoops history) they won the past 2 conference tournaments in Vegas and, if anyone cares about this fact anymore - HIS PLAYERS GRADUATE!! The one sticking point is, Alford could not win in the NCAA tourney and he gets prickly about it when the fact comes up. I think Steve and UCLA will regret this marriage within a year or two. Steve is chasing his John Wooden dream and chasing the dream of a legend like Wooden may become more like a nightmare. He's also taking his two sons with him to UCLA. That's good for UNM since we'll get those 2 scholarships to recruit some athletic ballers. The younger of the 2 sons, Bryce, is quite the scorer in high school but the jury is out on how he'll play at D-1 level. The other son, Kory, finishing his redshirt frosh year at UNM, is going to ride pine at UCLA probably his entire time there. If Kory plays much at UCLA the Bruins are in for a rough go of it. We at UNM should thank Steve for all that he did to improve things in the mens hoops program and then move on to bigger and better things - like once and for all making to the second weekend of the NCAA tournament - and not losing to mighty Harvard. UNM lost 2 games this season after Feb 9th; the winning opponents were Air Force and Harvard. You can't make that stuff up but it goes to show how Alford's teams often played down to their opponent. Good luck in Westwood, Steve. I sincerely mean that. You may be wishing you were back in the Land of Enchantment pronto!
Not a good hire, dont see this as a fit. Should of went after Florida Gulf coach, who could recruit, especially when he has the NBA on his resume. Players would love to play in his system and UCLA would of been one of the most entertaining teams to watch. But GuERRero played it safe. Parents and players would of loved Enfield and just getting him to the house Im sure he could see his staff and program to any player.
...The person who convinced Wooden to coach at UCLA: Everett Dean, hoosier native (head coach at Indiana in the 1920's and 30's and later the NCAA Championship with Stanford in '42).
Another Indiana kid was not given much of a chance to do well in Westwood in the 1940's. In fact, he was talked out of taking the head coach position at Minnesota to go out west. I think Alford will do well at UCLA---just a gut feeling.
Alford has been and always will be a good MID-MAJOR coach. He will NEVER be a major conference or bigtime coach. EVER.
Iowa was a tourney regular before Alford came, where he recruited a sexual, stood up for him and helped cover up the investigation, and then after attendance fell (Iowa was in the Top 20 in NCAA attendance for 25+ years until the middle of Alford's tenure) he finally started bittching about the lack of fan support at a football school. The good thing is, and Alford will be the first to tell you: he NEVER makes a mistakes, it's always the PLAYERS that make mistakes and lose games = it's his coaching that wins games.
I'll give him about 2 years before he's toast.....
I think UCLA made a panic move trying to salvage their image after Smart and Stevens declined to even interview. Alford can recruit but he has not shown an ability to coach or develop talent. That is why he cannot win in the tournament- he is consistently outcoached. Losing to Harvard and Amaker is only the most recent evidence.
And for all the UCLA fans who scoffed at the school even considering Smart or Stevens (you know who you are and you know Guerrero was dying to interview those coaches), insisting the Bruins would seek out a premier coach from a big time program, I laugh in your face. Alford and UNM are not big time nor is either the coach or the school on par with Butler or VCU. Get ready to feel the pain for the next several years!
uh the problem is Alford did the same at New Mexico as he did at Iowa, as I believe his first or 2nd season at Iowa they were a 3 seed and guess what happened to Iowa oh yeah they choked. Plus when he gets fired by UCLA after 3 years guess what Alford will have a hard time finding a job, as no sane AD is going to hire him because they saw what he did to UNM, and they'll say you know we'll pass, as how do we not know that you might not leave for another job after we hire you. Plus this just goes to show that Alford is just like the other sleazy coaches that do this sign a contract but then stab the team in the back when they get a bigger deal
Iowa has, in fact, done better that they did with Alford at the helm. They had been a good program for several decades when he replaced Dr. Tom Davis to supposedly take the program to "the next level". Instead he did demonstrably worse than his predecessor and took them from a program that routinely finished in the upper half of the Big Ten, made the NCAA tournament, and always won its first round game to a team that struggled to do any of those things. He also significantly eroded fan support from a fanbase that had previously always been among the country's leaders in attendance. That Iowa then decided to replace him with an even worse coach who drove them into the ground (which they've finally started to recover from this season when they really should have been a tournament team by any metric except RPI) does not retroactively change the fact that Alford was a failure by the standards of the program at the time he took over. It's possible that he's changed and grown since then (indeed I think he's done with at New Mexico outside of the NCAAs), but the revisionist history of his Iowa tenure needs to stop
@BillToscano He's not immoral because of the contract - many people play the switcheroo game all the time. He's immoral because he defended a 2-time rapist at Iowa and then blamed fans/administration/players for his shortcomings as a coach.
@Jon18 Can we get a reference for the tipping issues?
@mwr5053 Iowa = B1G and UNM = MWC
There's JUST a little bit of difference in environments - from admissions on down - between UNM and Iowa. Let's just say that when the lights are brightest and pressure is greatest, Alford fails miserably as a coach. From lack of player development to recruiting shady character players (and then defending them vociferously while obstructing justice - google Pierre Pierce) to graduating his recruits, Alford is a bomb waiting to happen. When it explodes, I can't wait to see the "journalists" that tout his hire doing their usual two-faced articles claiming that they were never "for" the hire.
LMFAO!!!!! You are seriously comparing Alford to Wooden?? Could you share with the rest of us what drugs you're taking? Your world sounds much better than reality
"sexual assaulter" - google Pierre Pierce
@CobyPreimesberger Just a guess, but I bet that you were not yelling, screaming, and throwing tantrums when Steve Alford resigned at Iowa to take the New Mexico job. If someone offered you a job with a much larger paycheck you would probably take it too. But don't let the realities of life get in the way of your hypocritical ranting.
@adsohnI agree with you. By the time Steve was gone, he hadn't done the Iowa basketball program any favors. So I don't see why his tenure at Iowa can be counted towards "a solid track record of success."
@adsohn I meant that the program has not been any better since he left. I'm well aware of Dr. Tom and his success there. And next year, maybe Fran Mac gets closer to Dr. Tom's standard.
@Mike26 @BillToscano Yes, he is immoral because of the oast, but in my opinion he deserves to be whacked hard over the contract.
I don't care that everyone else does it. The NCAA should not allow it.
But I am a grumpy old man.
@BillToscano @Jon18 Yes, chat with ANY local restaurant at any of his previous coaching stops. He's legendary - and not just for skipping the tip, but sometimes the entire bill.
@Mike26 @mwr5053 Can you speak from experience about the "environment" and "admissions" at UNM versus Iowa? UNM isn't some total backwater university that Big Ten proponents need to sneer at. (BTW, I'm a Big Ten grad myself) I'd stack the UNM basketball environment and facilities with most any major university and Alford loved that part of his job here. Academically, UNM may not have the reputation of Univ of Iowa but UNM is a fine university that has a lot going for it so back-off on the holier than thou attitude of Iowa City greatness, it's not all that becoming. My point earlier was I recognized that Alford made some bad choices at Iowa but perhaps those mistakes taught him well for the UNM job. Few have touched on it but before Alford arrived to UNM the mens basketball program was a mess and that included a god-awful graduation rate. Since Alford arrived it was reported locally that 9 out of his 10 seniors from past years graduated from UNM. The 3 seniors on this year's team are on track to graduate this May. Twelve out 13 athletes getting degrees is incredibly good, no? Granted, Alford has a prickly attitude at times and I think the UCLA/John Wooden dream of his from the time he was a boy growing up in Indiana is likely to become a nightmare - but that's his deal and he's one competitive son-of-a-gun so he's entitled to follow that dream to Westwood and see what he can do.
@JoeCabot @CobyPreimesbergerI'm a UCLA grad with connections to the University of Iowa (daughters are grads, I was on committees) . Alford was despised on and off campus. The guy was an one-man alienation band. Iowa won with Lute Olson, George Raveling and Tom Davis. Alford made Carver-Hawkeye a place not to be. It wasn't Pierre Pierce or even losing to Northwestern Louisiana State. I feel sick for my alma mater. Took Guerrero three times to find a football coach. Don't know that he'll have that luxury in basketball. He's a baseball guy, and he just screwed up royally in hoops.
@JoeCabot @CobyPreimesberger Joe, you are so far out of your league on Alford best you just keep it to yourself today.....
Google Pierre Pierce, Iowa basketball
Google "Steve Alford press conferences at Iowa"
Then come back and MAYBE you can talk.
@AndyGlockner @adsohn That's fine and accurate (though I believe we're headed that way), but it doesn't retroactively make Alford a success. He should be judged by what he did relative to where the program was when he was hired. Iowa had been a regular tournament participant for a long time, even before Dr. Tom arrived. That wasn't the case with Alford, and he also did a ton of damage to the program's fan support. Iowa making an even worse hire to replace him doesn't change any of that.
@AndyGlockner @adsohn Hopefully Coach Fran goes beyond Tom Davis - that's what Alford was SUPPOSED to do.
Andy, better be careful - Alford rear end has always been kept polished by your colleague Seth Davis = you know, the guy that proclaimed UNM as a dark for the national title.....LOL!
@BillToscano @Mike26 I agree there should be more of a penalty but I've given up hope on that ever happening.
@mwr5053 @Mike26 Alford completely soured a fervent Iowa fan base by defending a 2-time rapist - and that was his high point at Iowa. It goes far beyond his "prickly attitude" on and off the court = it was his arrogance and self-righteousness that turned off many to following the Hawkeyes.
Academically, UNM and Iowa are far apart and that's just the facts - that's also explains why so many of Alford's players flunked out or transferred out of Iowa after being conditional admissions into the program. It's great that UNM's guys are now graduating, but I highly doubt Stevie had anything to do with it. Iowa's program was NOT a mess when Alford took it over - he actually began the destruction of the walls and chipped away at the foundation during his tenure, and Todd Lickliter finished the job in his 3 disastrous year. Alford is undefeated as a head coach - just ask him! It's NEVER his fault when his team loses - it's the players', assistant coaches', fans' and the fact that the school is a football school.
Judging by some of the commentary from other UNM fans elsewhere, Alford's hasn't changed all that much on or off the court. If you don't believe me, go ask about a 5 or 6 restaurants that Alford frequented and see how often he bothered tipping anyone - or paying the bill at all.
We do agree on one thing - Alford is going to see his dream become a nightmare in under 3 years at UCLA!
@Mike26 Not going to follow your instructions on googling, given that my post had nothing to do with Steve Alford as a person or as a coach, which you apparently missed in your rush to preach to me. I was simply responding to the poster making complaints about Steve Alford changing jobs. Coaches do this regularly and no one ever complains when a coach they like leaves a job to come to their favorite program, yet they toss tantrums when a coach leaves.

Summary of In Patagonia Summary of In Patagonia Reviews for In Patagonia An Excerpt from In Patagonia
"A little masterpiece of travel, history, and adventure." — The New York Times
In Patagonia is Bruce Chatwin's exquisite account of his journey through "the uttermost part of the earth," that stretch of land at the southern tip of South America, where bandits were once made welcome and Charles Darwin formed part of his "survival of the fittest" theory. Chatwin's evocative descriptions, notes on the odd history of the region, and enchanting anecdotes make In Patagonia an exhilarating look at a place that still retains the exotic mystery of a far-off, unseen land. An instant classic upon publication in 1977, In Patagonia remains a masterwork of literature.
In Patagonia
"A book to stand on the shelf with Graham Greene, Somerset Maugham, and Paul Theroux." —The New York Times Book Review

Employment tribunal claims from discontented employees are a worrying prospect for any employer. An employment tribunal case is a no-win situation – even if the claim is completely unjustified. Under new rules, claiments have to pay an up-front fee to lodge a claim with further charges payable if the case goes ahead. And from 6 May 2014 Early Conciliation via Acas will be mandatory for all cases before they can proceed to an Employment Tribunal.
As the employer you almost always end up paying your own costs. At worst, you face the disruption and costs of the employment tribunal case plus the risk of a substantial award against you.
The best way to avoid employment tribunal claims is to avoid employment disputes. You need to treat employees fairly, making sure that you live up to your side of the contract and avoid discrimination. You also need to ensure that you comply with basic legal requirements in terms of working hours, health and safety, flexible working and so on.
Even so, problems are likely to arise: for example, when employees need to be disciplined, dismissed or made redundant. Proper disciplinary and grievance procedures are essential, helping you resolve problems before they reach an employment tribunal. If a case does reach the employment tribunal, any award against you may be increased if you failed to follow fair procedures.
Aim for a culture of open communication to help avoid employment tribunal claims. Employees who can raise problems informally with their managers, or who trust that any grievance will get a fair hearing internally, are less likely to complain to an employment tribunal. Difficult changes, like redundancies, can be less confrontational if employees are properly consulted and involved.
If you are notified of an employment tribunal claim, your first step is to assess the merits of the case. There may be technical reasons why the claim should not succeed: for example, if the claim is not made within three months. If an employment tribunal claim is invalid or very weak, you can apply for a pre-hearing claim to ask for it to be thrown out.
If there is a case to answer, you need to decide your approach. It is not too late to try to negotiate an agreement. You might try to do this informally, use the Acas conciliation service or negotiate a settlement agreement (formerly a known as a compromise agreement) through lawyers. Negotiation is often a more cost-effective approach than defending a tribunal case, even if you think you are in the right.
If you do decide to defend an employment tribunal claim, you'll need to get together all the evidence you need and prepare your case. The employment tribunal procedures then include exchanging information with the other side before the case itself begins.
Employment tribunal cases are less formal than court cases. You can defend an employment tribunal case yourself or be represented by an employment lawyer. Your best option may be to ask an employment specialist to carry out an initial review. This will help you assess the risks and decide what approach to take.

LINCOLN — Nebraska will begin Friday night's home men's basketball opener against Florida Gulf Coast with a 9-7 lead.
That's in available scholarship players.
The Huskers are down to nine after coach Tim Miles on Wednesday revealed that senior guard and top returning scorer Ray Gallegos has been suspended and true freshman guard Nathan Hawkins is out indefinitely with an injury.
Add in a previous three-game suspension to junior guard Deverell Biggs (DUI) and NU is down to nine on scholarship. One previous scholarship slot is unfilled.
Also, junior walk-on Jordan Tyrance, a candidate for playing time, has left the team with Miles' blessing and counsel to finish his degree and care for his daughter.
Gallegos, who turns 23 next week, is sidelined Friday night and for Tuesday's game against Western Illinois for "personal conduct." Miles declined to elaborate, other than to say he set the suspension length. Gallegos won't be stripped of his captaincy for now.
"It's disappointing," Miles said. "At the same time, I'm not so sure Ray's not going to come back better from this. Give him a couple of weeks to collect his thoughts."
Gallegos led the Big Ten in minutes played last season and was third nationally at 37.5. He averaged 12.5 points and made 83 3-pointers, the second-most in school history.
"I believe in Ray," Miles said. "I believe he can get past this and be a very good productive player for us and still have a leadership role."
Without Gallegos, Nebraska is expected to start the same lineup it did for Monday's 91-60 exhibition win over the University of Nebraska at Kearney: point guard Tai Webster, shooting guard Terran Petteway, small forward Shavon Shields, power forward Leslee Smith and center Walter Pitchford.
All but Shields will make their first career start.
Meanwhile, Florida Gulf Coast entered fall practice with nine available scholarship players — four under the NCAA limit — because three transfers are sitting out and a freshman left the team.
Now, returning starting center Eric McKnight is serving a six-game suspension and freshman forward Logan Hovey is out with a stress fracture.
FGCU, which got to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA tournament last season, might be down another player, too. Junior guard Bernard Thompson, the returning Atlantic Sun Conference defensive player of the year, has been hobbled this week with a sprained ankle.
Nebraska's situation, Miles said, has put any redshirt plans on hold. Hawkins and fellow freshman forward Nick Fuller had been candidates to sit out.
"I don't know about the injury (to Hawkins)," Miles said. "We'll see how long that lingers."

I was thinking just the same thing. This year´s Christmas party will include NO democrats (they never, ever reciprocate anyway). I´ve cancelled my weekly lunch with my old college chum (who always stiffs the waitress). I´ve thought about making a "holiday" card that says don´t call, don´t write, don´t email. Don´t come to my funeral because I´m not going to yours.

Perhaps the most important thing about this article is in the first reader´s comment below it. In this, he/she quotes Diana West´s epic takedown of Petraeus, and restates her point that as a general, Petraeus was more a creature of sucking up to his superiors and artful publicity by left than of real battlefield savvy.The comment makes its points so congently that even the author, Gensert, comments that they have caused him to reconsider his more effusive praise of Petraeus.

I vehemently dislike both parties for war-mongering, taxing, policing and closing off access. I am for the one thing that works: a Free Market, protected by law. I would love to bundle up the republicans and democrats into a ball of whine and throw them out to sea. I miss Ronald Reagan and Jack Kennedy, both. I don´t want a political identity other than free American who knows it and appreciates it. I hate George W Bush for his police state abuses and Barack Obama for his welfare state confiscations, equally. How did we saddle ourselves with this rot?

Saint Croix is an island in the Caribbean Sea, and a county and constituent district of the United States Virgin Islands. Buck Island Reef National Monument preserves a 176 acre island just north of St. Croix and the surrounding reefs, a popular destination for snorkelers. Fort Christiansvaern, built in 1749, is considered a national historic site, and is one of multiple buildings preserved to reflect the Danish heritage of the island.
Philipsburg is the main town on the Dutch side of the island of Sint Maarten, on a narrow stretch of land between Great Bay and the Great Salt Pond. It is also the capital of all of Sint Maarten and functions as the island's commercial center. Philipsburg was founded in 1763 by John Philips, a Scottish captain in the Dutch navy, and soon became a bustling centre of international trade. Two historic forts bear witness to Philipsburg's strategic importance in St. Maarten's history: Fort Amsterdam and Fort Willem.
The skyline of St. John's, the capital and largest city of Antigua and Barbuda, is dominated by the magnificently evocative white baroque towers of St. John's Cathedral. Built in 1845, the church is now in its third incarnation, as earthquakes in 1683 and in 1745 destroyed the previous structures. The towers are the first sight of Antigua for about half of the island's visitors each year, many of whom arrive by boat. With its recently completed cruise ship dock and several hotels, St. John's is a lively hub for shopping and dining.
Castries is the capital city of Saint Lucia. It houses the seat of government and the head offices of many of the businesses both foreign and local. The city's design is in a grid pattern similar to a metropolitan city like New York but on a much smaller scale. It has a sheltered harbour which receives cargo vessels and ferry boats as well as cruise ships. It contains duty free shopping facilities such as Point Seraphine and La Place Carinage; many restaurants which offer varied menus from local to Chinese; supermarkets and many other shopping facilities. The city is well serviced by a bus system and taxi service.
The city of Bridgetown is the capital and largest city of Barbados. The Bridgetown Port (or "Deep Water Harbour" as its also known) is the major port of entry for cruises that sail all over the Caribbean. The present day location of the city was established by English settlers in 1628 following a prior settlement at St. James Town. Bridgetown is a major West Indies tourist destination, and in 2011, Historic Bridgetown and its Garrison were added as a World Heritage Site of UNESCO.
Today is a full day spent at sea as you cruise onward toward your final destination, San Juan, Puerto Rico. There are countless ways to enjoy your time at sea. For rest and relaxation, visit the Vitality Spa, with its extensive treatement menu, while the adults-only solarium pool and whirlpool area offers a pleasant retreat throughout the day. Mini golf, rock climbing, table tennis, inline skating, and a state-of-the-art fitness centre with classes including yoga and pilates, will keep you active as you cruise.
After breakfast this morning, you'll bid farewell to your fellow cruisemates and disembark from your ship, as your cruise journey has concluded.
