Most challenging Candlestick runs happen every halftime
Montana on Candlestick: 'Issues with field, but we had home-field advantage'
Steve Young's memorable run at Candlestick has nothing on Greg Roman's halftime Candlestick routine. (USATSI)
Programming note: After tonight's Falcons-49ers game, turn the channel to 49ers Postgame Live on Comcast SportsNet Bay Area
SAN FRANCISCO -- There was Steve Young's remarkable, stumbling touchdown run against the Minnesota Vikings in 1988.
And Garrison Hearst had one of the great plays in NFL history with a 96-yard touchdown – the longest run in 49ers history – for an overtime win in the 1998 season-opener against the New York Jets.
Sure, those Candlestick Park scampers were memorable.
But what individuals who coached at Candlestick will remember most are the mad dashes that occurred with a lot greater frequency – at halftime of every game.
[NEWS: Iupati, Manningham questionable for Candlestick finale]
During the 12-minute halftime intermission, assistant coaches over 43 seasons at Candlestick Park have engaged in a stressful trek to get to the locker room in time for a little face time with the players and coaches who remain on the sideline.
Greg Roman (shown below), the 49ers' offensive coordinator, explains the challenges:
"You have to get on the elevator, take it down to the main concourse, fight your way through the people getting beer and pretzels and hot dogs, go down the stairs of the first level, get on the field, sprint to the dugout, sprint to the locker room. You've got about five minutes there, and then it's a full sprint back."
Candlestick Park, which opened in 1960, was built for baseball. It certainly was not constructed with football coaches in mind. On Monday night, the 49ers have their final regular-season game, against the Atlanta Falcons, in their home since the 1971 season. (There's still an outside chance the 49ers could play at Candlestick in the playoffs.)
Whereas every other new stadium has multiple elevators that shuttle coaches directly to the lower-level corridor where the locker rooms are situated. The logistics are much more complex at The 'Stick.

"You know you're going to get up and out, up and down at a normal stadium," 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said. "Here, you always got to fight through the crowd, which can be a little bit chaotic at times.
"It's just nobody's fault. There are just a lot of people going up and down those steps. And then you've always got the elevator there. You might have to wait for it. There's only one, where these new stadiums usually have a bank of three or four there. But, luckily, in the last three years, we've been fairly successful at home and the fans have been cordial going up and down."
While Roman is in transit to the locker room, offensive line coach Mike Solari and quarterbacks coach Geep Chryst have already started handling specific halftime duties. Then, Roman arrives to be seen and heard -- albeit briefly.
There are not a lot of strategic changes that can be made during those five minutes or so, but Roman said adjustments should already be taking place between the 49ers' offensive possessions in the first two quarters and as the second half progresses.
"I think a lot of what's communicated during the first half is done so over the headsets, and then we just try to crystalize specific things," Roman said. "You're making adjustments throughout the entire game, not just at halftime. But there definitely are some things that you can look into a guy's eyes and get communicated quickly before the long journey back begins."

Roman said he has never missed the start of the second half, but he acknowledges he's had some close calls. He could have more time in the locker room at halftime if he remained on the sideline, but he said the advantage of being in the booth, where he can see all 22 players, is too valuable to consider avoiding the halftime cardio test.
Of course, after the coaches spend their brief time in the locker room, they must retrace their sprint from the locker room, through the tunnel, across the playing field, up the steps through the stands, across the concourse, to the elevator, to the booth.
"I'm breathing really hard by the time I hit that elevator," Roman said. "We all are. We just look at each other when we hit the elevator and go, 'Man, we've got to get more exercise.' But, yeah, it's interesting. It's definitely part of the lore of Candlestick Park."

USA Today has posted new images of a key character in James Gunn's "Guardians of the Galaxy" that many comic fans having been asking about - Yondu.
In the film, when Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) was a young boy on Earth he endured a tragedy. He was then taken off his home planet by Yondu (Michael Rooker) who became the kid's surrogate father figure.
Yondu raises Peter alongside the space biker gang the Ravagers. He and Yondu scheme to steal a mystical and powerful orb which Peter grabs and decides to go off with on his own - setting off the events in the movie.
As a result not only is the film's villain Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace) seeking the orb for his master Thanos, but Yondu and the Ravagers are also after Peter and the rest of the so-called 'Guardians of the Galaxy'.
The character doesn't have either the red loincloth or giant head fin of his comic counter part, though Rooker does sport a smaller mohawk shaped metallic prosthetic made to look as if it's erupting from his head.
In other 'Guardians' news, James Gunn tells Moviefone that the upcoming film boasts a "ton" of Marvel references, in fact there's around four times as many in here as there are in any previous Marvel movie"
"I actually have to clear everything with legal. We put in little things like graffiti on the walls and stuff like that. There's a ton of characters from the comics in this movie, in little tiny roles. But we have to clear everything with legal because once I use their name then I'm screwed in that scene or whatever. We have just tons of reference to Marvel Cosmic throughout the movie. And I'm certain probably the most Marvel comics characters ever in one movie."

Nice 3d documentary3d content is too good.You feel the whales and fishes coming out and touching you. Not a movie but a documentary that shows real oceanic cretures. You feel like you are really inside the ocean. Really have one piece for someone who wants to experience the thrill of a 3d tv. But those who buy this to watch a movie or expecting a story line will be disappointed.

They were called Easy Company, but their mission was never easy. Immortalized as the Band of Brothers, they suffered 150% casualties while liberating Europe, an unparalleled record of bravery under fire. Dick Winters was their commander, and this is his story based on his wartime diary. Only Winters was present from the activation of Easy Company until the war's end. On D-Day, Dick Winters parachuted into France and assumed leadership of the company when their commander was killed. He led them through the Battle of the Bulge and into Germany, where they liberated an S.S. death camp from the horrors of the Holocaust and captured Berchtesgaden, Hitler's alpine retreat. After briefly serving during the Korean War, Winters was a highly successful businessman.--From publisher description.

Media Convergence
By STEVE LOHR
Published: June 29, 1998
Billions of dollars and a bold high-technology vision are fueling the AT&T Corporation's plan to buy Tele-Communications Inc. The merger, announced last week, is the latest in a rising wave of corporate deals sweeping up telecommunications, cable television and media companies as these industries become increasingly dependent on the digital technology of computing.
The business logic behind the trend is that companies now face a once-in-a-corporate-lifetime choice of getting in early to become leaders in the new markets of the information age or being relegated to also-ran status. Earlier this month, two major media companies -- the Walt Disney Company and the NBC unit of the General Electric Company -- applied that logic in making significant investments in popular sites on the Internet's World Wide Web.
Whether any of these deals make sense, or make money anytime soon, will depend largely on the economic behavior of people like Charles Vandagriff of Oakland, Calif.
Mr. Vandagriff, his wife and two daughters are the kind of well-off, technologically fluent family earmarked first by phone, media and computer companies in their consumer marketing campaigns.
Someday, AT&T wants families like Mr. Vandagriff's to turn to the company for one-stop shopping for not only all of their telephone and cable television services but new information services as well. And AT&T's purchase of TCI, the nation's second-largest cable television company, is seen as a big step toward realizing AT&T's vision of becoming an all-in-one digital delivery system.
The 49-year-old Mr. Vandagriff is a furniture designer, and his wife, Kathy Sinsheimer, is a psychotherapist. Their household has three personal computers, four phone lines, a cellular phone and two pagers.
There are 16 million such wired families in America, typically with incomes of $70,000 or more, at least one PC and often more than one telephone line, according to the Yankee Group, a research firm. ''No new technology or technology marketing plan will succeed if it doesn't succeed first with families like that one,'' observed Howard Anderson, the Yankee Group's managing director.
By acquiring TCI's cable-television system, AT&T gets a higher-speed network for sending telephone, video and Internet services directly into consumers' homes, including 1.3 million TCI customers in the San Francisco area like the Vandagriffs. It was this vision of a phone-entertainment-Internet supercarrier that C. Michael Armstrong, AT&T's chairman, and John C. Malone, the chairman of TCI, were extolling last Wednesday when they announced their $31.8 billion deal.
Mr. Vandagriff remains skeptical. ''I'm sure these companies are trying to think ahead, but it's not clear to me what they are going to try to sell us really,'' he said. ''I have so many services now -- Internet, cable, phone, cellular and pagers -- that I can't imagine I want any more. I'll wait for the future to arrive.''
Telecommunications and media companies do not believe they have the luxury of waiting. The rapid advances of technology, they say, are forcing them to act now. The main engine is the spread of digital technology that enables text, sound and video all to be expressed and distributed in the form of the elemental building blocks of computing, the electronic 1's and 0's called bits (short for binary digits).
Though all forms of information can be reduced to bits, text requires the fewest bits, while sound and video consume many more. One letter in a word can be rendered in eight bits, while a few seconds of movie-style video may require millions of bits. Most of the new services companies hope to market eventually -- from video phones to movies on demand -- are expected to be multimedia offerings that require high-speed connections into homes.
So today, companies are puzzling over both how to carry more bits into homes and how to package those bits into new entertainment, information or shopping services that people may actually want. In simple terms, telecommunications companies can be thought of as the pipes and media companies as the programmers.
It will be costly and time-consuming to upgrade the existing bit-delivery mechanisms. Phone lines are skinny pipes, but they are two-way networks that can both send and receive data; cable systems offer fat pipes, but must be converted from one-way to two-way systems. It will, for example, take AT&T nearly five years and $9 billion to upgrade the entire TCI network, the Yankee Group estimates.
As with most new technologies, from the telephone to the personal computer, companies will be able to pay for high-speed Internet service first, before costs come down to make it common in homes.
The impact, many experts predict, will be sweeping. Nicholas Negroponte, director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Laboratory, insists that for all the attention the Internet has received, the power of the technology is still not understood. ''The Internet is wildly underestimated,'' Mr. Negroponte said. ''It will grow to be the enabling technology of all media -- TV, radio, magazines and so on.''

In this paper, an inexact Newton scheme is presented which produces a sequence of iterates in which the problem functions are differentiable. It is shown that the use of the inexact Newton scheme does not reduce the convergence rate significantly. To improve the algorithm further, we use a classical finite-difference approximation technique in this context. Locally superlinear convergence results are obtained under reasonable assumptions. To globalize the algorithm, we incorporate features designed to improve convergence from an arbitrary starting point. Convergence results are presented under the condition that the generalized Jacobian of the problem function is nonsingular. Finally, implementations are discussed and numerical results are presented.

A former contract nurse who worked at the Cass County Jail is facing two felonies for allegedly having sexual contact with a male inmate and bringing him contraband.
Claire Schwehr is charged with two Class C felonies, sexual abuse of wards and delivery of an electronic device to an inmate. Schwehr is also charged with delivering tobacco to an inmate, a Class B misdemeanor.
The Cass County Sheriff's Office says Schwehr was allegedly maintaining an "unlawful sexual relationship" with Jason Stewart while he was an inmate at the jail.
Schwehr allegedly brought in a cell phone, cell phone charger, beef jerky and tobacco for the inmate.
The nurse has since been fired by Fargo Cass Public Health.
She is not in custody and will be summoned at a later date.

Minneapolis Park and Rec ice rinks open tomorrow
Looking to practice your inside and outside edges? Itching to use the hockey gear that's been sitting in your garage all summer? Do you actually know what broomball is and have an unstoppable strategy? You're in luck--thanks to recent freezing weather, a rink near you may be opening up tomorrow.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Florida's minimum wage increases to $7.21 an hour on New Year's Day, a jump of 42 cents for roughly 400,000 workers.
The increase, which is based on an annual consumer price adjustment, translates to an extra $16.80 for a 40-hour week.
The state's minimum wage went up to $6.15 an hour in 2005 after voters had approved a constitutional amendment the previous year. It has now increased another $1.06 since.
Supporters say the increase is desperately needed because Florida has the highest rate of job losses in the country and 10 percent of all Floridians are on food stamps.
Business groups, however, don't like the wage hike because they say it will limit the number of jobs available, especially during a recession.

Skip to comments.(Liberal Quinnipiac University poll finds) Specter tied with Toomey in Senate race
Posted on 12/18/2009 3:13:31 PM PST by Zakeet
Democratic Senator Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania is running even with relatively unknown Republican challenger Pat Toomey for a 2010 race that could help determine the balance of power in the U.S. Senate, according to a poll released on Friday.
Specter, 79, is a longtime Republican who broke with the party in April and joined the Democrats, helping them reach the 60-vote threshold in the 100-member Senate, a super majority crucial for overcoming Republican opposition to legislation.
The Quinnipiac University survey found voters split 44-44 percent between the two candidates when asked who they would elect if they were to vote today.
In a May 4 Quinnipiac University poll, Specter held a 53 to 33 percent lead over Toomey and has been gradually slipping since.
(Excerpt) Read more at reuters.com ...
A 20 percent drop in six months in Quinnipiac push polls does not bode well for the RINO-Rat
44% for an incumbent in a two way race is very low.
Don't worry Arlen, maybe Santorum will endorse you over Toomey....again.
Specter also has to defend his seat from a liberal rat challenger. Toomey should be the only candidate on the GOP side. This looks promising.
The only thing that could improve his standing is a sudden regrowth of a republican spine.
If he were to suddenly announce he wil NOT support a 2000 page health care nightmare, he would be in the news 24/7
(someone tell him! quick!)
I beg to differ. There was never, ever ANYTHING 'Republican' about this asshole. Political opportunist? Yes. Self-absorbed liar? Yes. Equivocator? Yes. Media Whore? Yes....all those things, but not, repeat not - REPUBLICAN.
Keep countin those chickens. Did ya count the 2 special elections for the House last Nov? The rats won both congressional seats including a rare seat in NY-23 that had been held by the GOP for a long time. I remember thinking Clinton was toast after the great rat stomp of 94, but Clinton was supported by the voters no matter how big a piece of crap I thought he was.
I don't believe we will even win the House back in 2010. Too many conservatives think the teaparty marchers are ideologues. The teaparty gave the NY seat to the rats.
With enemies like conservatives, 0 dont need friends
The fraud in Philly and Pittsburg will come through for Arlen
No, the Republican party gave the NY seat to the rats including an endorsement of the Rat from the former ultra Progressive Republican nominee upon her departure from the race.
Good riddance, Arlen! It's been 30 years too many.
Clearly Obama and the rest of the d-RATS have had a bad year as reflected in the Rasmussen daily tracking poll, and other polls. The Rasmussen Daily Tracking Poll has Obama politically hemorrhaging badly in 2009, and another year such as this could put Obama down near HSTruman's paltry 22% favorable Gallup number.
Since Obama was sworn in his total approval number has plummeted from a high of 65% down to 44% in today's released poll. His Unfavorables have climbed from 30% on the day he was sworn in as POTUS, to a high of 54%. You do the math, for it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that these numbers, should they continue to spiral downward, could put a real drag on the ticket in 2010, spelling doom for many of those 69 Congressional RATs who won in marginal districts that either McCain or Bush41 carried in the last two Presidential elections.
I hope we can bring the TeaParty people (many of them former Perotistas) into the GOP and reinvigorate the party. The GOP should be a right-of-center Conservative Party, and the RATs should be the left-of-center socialist/progressive/communist party.
In NY-23 Scuzzyfava was a farleft big spending liberal who supported card check, voted for higher taxes in the NY Assembly, and supported Obama's stimulas package. She might have been farther left than the eventual RAT winner, so it wasn't the teaparty that sunk her campaign...no, she sunk her own campaign. I think Doug Hoffman, the Independent, ran an impressive campaign considering how late he got into the race. And Scuzzy showed her true political colors, and what a real squish she was, by endorsing the RAT candidate. Some Republican you were supporting there.
Prove that. Scuzzy was a moderate and a closer match with the RINO who Owens replaced. She voted against the Rockefeller Drug Law Reform which reduced sentences for drug crimes. She voted against the comprehensive gun package, which earned her an endorsement from the NRA. She voted against the Farmworkers Bill of Rights which protects farmworkers(illegals). She voted against a bill that gave more pay to cops in NY City that speak a foreign language on the job. She voted against regulating no-knock warrants and monitoring all search warrants. She vote against the 2010 Campaign Finance Reform Act, which would provide for optional partial public financing of certain election campaigns in this state. She voted against a bill that required restaurants to post the caloric information, and another bill banning trans fats in restaurants. She voted against several liberal housing and rent control bills.
A lot of ignorant conservatives who get all there news from FR have said the rat was more conservative than Scuzzy. That is a lie.
If there had been a primary election to pick the candidate, Scuzzyflava' would have never been a candidate.
More ignorance. Conservatives sent a message to 0 in Nov. The message is "The anti-obama constituency is so powerless they are fighting for second place. This is a good day to be a rat." The rats are willing to bend, overlook, and break any law to win. They will lie to win. They will pretend to be centrists. We can't do that for fear the conservatives will desert the party. Conservatives think the best way win is to bludgeon the inhabitants of Reagan's Big Tent.
The GOP promoted a moderate candidate in New York in a RINO seat. That is a winning stratagy. Hoffman got every conservative vote, and he lost. Conservatives should consider a strategy that expends less energy going after RINOs in favor of going after democrats ( the guys in power ), but they wont. Conservatives will blame the GOP leadership for an unelectable conservative failing to win in a liberal state.
Hoffman is lousy speaker. He's a flash in the pan that was in the right place at the right time to capture the hearts and wallets of disaffected conservatives today. We have a worse chance of getting that seat back in 2010 then we did last Nov. That is a fact proved by history. If Hoffman runs again from outside of the 23rd district(he doesn't live in the district he ran in), and somehow wins the primary(which I doubt he can do)...I bet you $100 he loses. This time he won't be able to count on RINOs (a majority of GOP voters in that district, as proved by previous elections) holding their nose and voting for him as a message to 0, they are just as like to be angry at Hoffman for electing Owens in the first place.
The GOP now has 2 out of 31 congressional seats in NY.
2 terms Truman(d)
2 terms Eisenhower(r)
2 terms Kennedy/Johnson(d)
2 terms Nixon(r)
1 term Carter(d) 1 term Reagan(r) the only exception and look how bad Carter was
2nd term Reagan 1 term Bush(r)
2 terms Clinton(d)
2 terms Bush(r)
Osama will have to be really bad to lose. I do not underestimate the American worker to fix the economy despite Osama.
See post 15 to see what I think of the stupid NY-23 race.
Screw ALL RINOS. If you are a liberal republican then go join the Bolsheviks. We are coming after you. One by one.
RINOs may jump ship to affect change if it becomes clear that rats are the only game. If the GOP losses the conservatives the GOP will have to move to the left to get a majority of votes. Conservatives are working very hard to prove their irrelevancy. Like I said conservatives couldn't stop McCain and they couldn't elect Palin. I'm not sure they matter anymore.
You say the polls mean nothing, and then in the next sentence you say that you're glad they are bad for Osama. But if the polls mean nothing, it doesn't matter whether they're good or bad for OsamaObama, right?
I don't believe we have to worry about a major teaparty revolt in the 2012 general elections creating a schism in the center-right ranks, unless the GOP barons in the smoke filled room give us a Presidential standard-bearer that is as goofy and as far to the left as the Scuzzyfava was in NY-23. Since the GOP will have a bruising primary to sort things out, we don't have to worry that elitist liberal GOP bigshots, like the liberal Republican County Chairman in NY-23 who met in the latest incarnation of the proverbial smoke filled room (Pizza Parlor) will deliver the election on a silver platter to the RATS, like they did in NY-23.
I never would underestimate the American worker, but that American worker and the capitalist system that gives him sustenance may be under seige by the Obama big spending. Spending has gotten totally out of control, and the Obama deficit may end up being greater in this fiscal year, than all the Bush deficits combined over Bush's 8 years in office. I think the out-of-control spending is going to sink Obama, and will be a drag on the other races down ticket.
I see signs that Obama is more like Jimmy Carter, than Bill Clinton. The recent national Gallup poll had Obama lower than any other POTUS since the Gallup group began polling back in the late forties, and that poll also showed Obama ten points lower than Carter during a similar period of time during the Carter maladministration. We could be looking at a Carter administration redux on steriods, and that could be the political death knell for Pelousy and Reid leadership aspirations.
I wrote the polls mean nothing TODAY. You missed a word.
Scuzzy and NY-23 were an exception where there wasn't time to do a primary. You seem to say the same thing, yet you blame the GOP for picking a RINO candidate to replace a RINO, instead of a rotten spokesman from outside the district whose ideology was at odds with the district, but more in tune with Rush and Freepers(Hoffman)...whatever, I made my point. The overwhelming majority of GOP candidates will be picked by primary voters in 2010. Few will be authentic conservatives by FR standards. Squishy RINOs like Christie can replace Corzines in liberal and moderate states. Lonegans will get dropped by RINO voters. Don't be shocked.
I've given up pretending to be an economist, but spending is not neccessarily a good indicator of future economic rune. Spending went through the roof during Reagans 2 terms. The economy thrived.
Are my posts cautioning against assuming all voters think like you, interfering with your echo-chamber at FR? So sorry. Let not your sleep be troubled my friend. You saw the tea party marches and the long lines at Palin book signings. Just forget about the 10 years of my posts here at FR and assume I'm another enemy. Why bother thinking for yourself when Rush, Beck, and Savage will do that for you. Sweet dreams Tailback.
The polls mean nothing TODAY? Tell that to Virginia Governor elect McDonnell, Lieutenant Governor Elect Bill Bolling, Attorney General Elect Ken Cuccinelli, and the handful of new Republican Virginia House of Delegates victors that are now replacing RAT incumbent House members. I suspect they would disagree with your characterization vehemently.
While all the GOP candidates were qualified in their own right, looking at the Virginia poll numbers from the beginning of July to the beginning of November of this year, one can't help but be struck by the similarities between Obama's tanking numbers and the upswing in Virginia Voter's support for the Virginia GOP's Statewide Candidates. For instance, the Public Policy Polling firm from Raleigh, North Carolina polled a Virginia voter sample on June 30th to July 2, and McDonnell was up 49 to 43, Bolling was up 46 to 40, and Cuccinelli was up 48 to 38. Juxtoposing that poll with the Rasmussen polling on July 1, shows Obama's approval/disapproval at 54 to 45.
By election time, Obama's approval/disapproval numbers had tanked to 46 to 52. An 8 point drop in Obama likely voter approval numbers in 4 months! Meanwhile, the Virginia GOP Statewide Candidates polling numbers were almost exactly in inverse to Obama's plunging putrid polling numbers, with McDonnell's approval rising 7 points, Bollings approvals up 8 points, and Cuccinellis' approvals up 7.
Yes, tell Creigh Deeds, Jody Wagner, and Steve Shelton that Obama's downward spiral from July 1 to November 1 "means nothing." I'm sure it meant nothing to Jon Corzine as well.
Listen, McHugh was left-of-center, no question. But the Scuzzball was a committed leftist. McHugh had a lifetime ACU (American Conservative Union) rating of 71.5, and a lifetime Chamber of Commerce rating of 82. Do you really believe that the Scuzz could have even come close to those numbers had she got the nod from the NY District 23 voters?
While we will probably never know the answer, I would sooner have put my bet on the snowball in hell, than on the Scuzz maintaining McHugh's percentages.
If the GOP establishment, or liberal Republican primary voters are going to give us a turkey like Charles Goodell in the 1970 NY Senatorial elections, the Conservative Party in NY will be there to give us a James Buckley. Without the forerunners of the TeaParty Movement, in the form of the NY Conservative Party, NY and American itself, would have been stuck with a 1970s version of the Scuzzball, Scuzzyfava, as one of NY's two US Senators sent to the US Senate.
I'm not an economist either, but I know a sinking economy when I see one, and this economy is anemic and probably heading for a double dip recession, especially after the "Anointed" one raises taxes on the American people (in 2010 the Bush Tax Cuts expire). I don't thing the Reagan anology holds at all, because Reagan cut taxes across the board 25% over a three year period, while reducing onerous regulations and redtape on small, medium, and big business. Obama is doing quite the opposite, re-regulating the economy and raising taxes and fees wherever he can. No, obama's spending is far greater in absolute numbers and will likely devestate the American economy for years to come. Obama think Hoover, Reagan think Coolidge and JFK.
We are going to disagree on Scuzzy, but you are probably right about the economy tanking. I'm just not betting on it. You made good arguements and backed them up with facts. I learned somethings fom reading your posts. Thanx for your replies.
edit for clarity
but you are probably right about the economy continuing to tank.
Reading your homepage, I think we agree on a lot. I also agree with you that we have to be very careful that we don't cause a schism in the center-right coalition allowing the RATs to insinuate themselves into whatever the public position. 3rd party movements (on the right side of the spectrum) scare the h*ll out of me, and that's the only thing that can save the Obammunists, a splintered Conservative response.
Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.
I'll never forget in NYS when Quinnipiac had conservative Republican John Faso behind by 15 points in the Comptroller's. While Faso lost, he only lost by 3 points. I often wonder if that poll caused some conservatives to stay home (who liked Faso) thinking he had no chance to win.
I wish I could tell the PA voters about this.
Quinnipiac canNOT be trusted.

Best desert!I have been using this as an all day vape. The flavor is not over powering. All the flavors are blended together just right. I love the fact that it has just a hint of warm rum. Vapor4life nailed this desert perfectly. Good job!
SWEEEETThis reminded me of a very sweet banana liquor with a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg?. Very tastey, but not an all day vape. Still looking for the banana vape for banana lovers.
I Think I gained weight!I saw this video review http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DEYP-ibkSw. I haven't tried many flavors but since his impressions of a flavor I ordered previously were similar to mine I decided to give it a shot. This is definitely very very good at 24mg. I will make sure to keep this one in supply.
a favoriteLove the taste, but not as strong as I would like. Find myself Vaping harder and longer to get more flavor.
this is the one...I mostly vape tobacco flavors, however, this is one flavor I order that is not tobacco. I have never had the actual desert this is named for, all I know is I really like this flavor. The vapor is great too. I have tried this flavor from another vendor, and it was ok, but this is the best.

of embezzlement
BENNINGTON A Castleton woman is facing a felony charge after police said she took more than $1,700 while working at a Manchester jewelry store between August and November.
Hannah B. York, 30, of Castleton, pleaded innocent to the charge Monday in Bennington criminal court. She was released without bail.
Officer Paul McGann of the Manchester Police Department said in an affidavit that Linda Robillard, owner of Hidden Jewel on Main Street in Manchester, reported her suspicions on Nov. 26.
A police review of the stores records began on Feb. 21. McGann and Robillard found more than a dozen alleged incidents which indicated embezzlement.
McGann said York met with him at the Manchester Police Station on Feb. 7 and denied taking any money illegally.MORE IN This Just In

Used chipotles instead of chilis. My husband and I loved this. Too hot for my son. Great complexity of flavor for a relatively simple dish to prepare. The cilantro and avocado topping were a great addition. Superb meatless dish. Bravo!
Loved this super yummy stew!! I used chipotle peppers instead of the red chili and it turned out great. I did add a bit extra broth as I needed to use it up and my veggies were abnormally large. I had mine with avocado and cilantro and crumbled some tortilla chips on top, loved it!!
This recipe is awesome. I was very skeptical while making it because it didn't seem to have much of a "base", but it turned out fantastic!!! The flavors are so complex! Even my non-veg hubby went back for seconds. Thanks!

Fishing Boats on the Beach at Saintes-Maries Canvas Art
36" X 48" Oil Painting On Canvas. Hand painted oil reproduction of one of the most famous Van Gogh paintings, Fishing Boats on the Beach at Saintes-Maries. The original masterpiece was created in 1888 with its colorful beached fishing boats in the foreground and water surfing sailboats in the back. Today it has been carefully recreated detail-by-detail, color-by-color to near perfection. Why settle for a print when you can add sophistication to your rooms with a beautiful fine gallery reproduction oil painting?
Vincent Van Gogh's restless spirit and depressive mental state fired his artistic work with great joy and, sadly, equally great despair. Known as a prolific Post-Impressionist, he produced many paintings that were heavily biographical. This work of art has the same emotions and beauty as the original by Van Gogh. Why not grace your home with this reproduced masterpiece? It is sure to bring many admirers!

Hemp ... when you really want to keep something.
More evidence for ending the War on Hemp/Marijuana!!!!
The most horrifying thing I have heard is that the face was painted over some centuries ago, because Mary looked too Indian, was "too dark." It would be great if some restorers could be trusted with the job of removing the pale-face paint.
Oh Please!!! Not the Never-Ending threads!!! Any other torture but that!!!
More evidence for ending the War on Hemp/Marijuana!!!!Oh please!
Become informed on a topic before you spout off and mis-inform everyone! A large part of the longevity of ANY product (paper or hemp) are the chemicals used in processing and the residual compounds left IN the product!
Additionaly, here is a recent work that investigated industrial hemp growing and processing in Minnesota that advocates *caution* before rushing headlong into 'massive hemp farming' -
Industrial Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) as a
Papermaking Raw Material in Minnesota:
Technical, Economic, and Environmental Considerations
by Jim L. Bowyer
Published May 2001
One potential source of industrial fiber is agricultural crops, either in the form of residues of food crops or plants grown specifically for fiber. One species that has generated interest as a fiber source is industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.). This report focuses on the potential use of industrial hemp as a source of paper making raw material in Minnesota. Environmental implications of commercial scale hemp production are also examined.
Despite promising attributes of industrial hemp, several factors suggest that development of an industrial hemp-based paper industry in Minnesota should not be pursued without very careful consideration.
Factors dictating caution include:
- Hemp growth rates are markedly lower than kenaf, another agricultural fiber currently being promoted as a papermaking raw material. The relatively slow growth rates of hemp could place Minnesota farmers at a considerable disadvantage to those several hundred miles to the south who could raise fiber crops of kenaf.
- Hemp crops are highly sensitive to early and late season frosts, a reality that could prevent reliable production of seed that is needed to make hemp production economically attractive to farmers.
- Although industrial hemp is not likely to be an economically viable source of marijuana, separation of industrial hemp from hemp grown as a narcotic is extremely difficult.
- Separation of bark and core portions of hemp stalks are thought by many to be necessary for optimum processing of hemp. However, retting, an integral part of the bark/core separation process, is reported to require substantial improvement prior to large-scale use of industrial hemp as a fiber source.
- Long-term storage of large volumes of hemp would be needed following harvest were hemp to become a principal papermaking fiber.
- In comparison to industrial fiber productivity in tree plantations, production of hemp fiber would likely result in significantly greater environmental impacts, even if it is assumed that annual hemp yields per acre would be as much as 70 percent greater than yields from poplar plantations.
Although industrial hemp is not likely to be an economically viable source of marijuana, separation of industrial hemp from hemp grown as a narcotic is extremely difficult.

How many mexicans believe that 'the Virgin of Guadalupe' is/was a demonic manifestation? Certainly there are plenty of Pentecostal, and non-Pentecostal, Bible-believing, followers of the Nazarene Carpentar who do.

Our Lady of Guadalupe
The feast in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe goes back to the sixteenth century. Chronicles of that period tell us the story.
A poor Indian named Cuauhtlatohuac was baptized and given the name Juan Diego. He was a 57-year-old widower and lived in a small village near Mexico City. On Saturday morning, December 9, 1531, he was on his way to a nearby barrio to attend Mass in honor of Our Lady.
He was walking by a hill called Tepeyac when he heard beautiful music like the warbling of birds. A radiant cloud appeared and within it a young Native American maiden dressed like an Aztec princess. The lady spoke to him in his own language and sent him to the bishop of Mexico, a Franciscan named Juan de Zumarraga. The bishop was to build a chapel in the place where the lady appeared.
Eventually the bishop told Juan Diego to have the lady give him a sign. About this same time Juan Diegos uncle became seriously ill. This led poor Diego to try to avoid the lady. The lady found Diego, nevertheless, assured him that his uncle would recover and provided roses for Juan to carry to the bishop in his cape or tilma.
When Juan Diego opened his tilma in the bishops presence, the roses fell to the ground and the bishop sank to his knees. On Juan Diegos tilma appeared an image of Mary as she had appeared at the hill of Tepeyac. It was December 12, 1531.
I assume you've ordered your special edition Christmas Foil Hat to keep out the secret messages being beamed from the The Great Whore of Babylon - the Vatican.

As you can see, the images are as clear as a bell. The third guy from the right even has an Applebee's receipt sticking out of his jacket pocket.
Wow, this *is* old.
Do you have the Chapter and verses for these two statements?
Matthew 7:6 "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you."
Matthew 7:18 "A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit."
I don't see a dang thing....
Is that Barney on the right?
Fife, or Dinosaur? Either way, I'm sure it is.
Just a point of fact from this Catholic, the Catholic Church did not "elevate" Mary, God the Father did. We just honor her as the mother of God.
Thr Applebee's receipt might indicate its a forgery..Experts?
Saint Didacus of Alcalá, more familiar as San Diego, was a lay brother of the Order of Friars Minor who died at Alcalá de Henares, Spain, November 12, 1463.

It's called a miracle from God. Accept it.
Tan Books has a book by Francis Johnston. It is the Wonder of Guadalupe.
This book has about some of the scientific research into the images in the eyes that was done (I think) in the 1970's (if not, it was the 1960's).
A good stocking stuffer for that special someone.
I remember in Atlanta a few years ago I gave a woman recovering from cancer a number of Tan Books. She later joined a religious order.
The Indians of Mexico (natives) painted over the miraculous image to make her look more like the natives. So there is paint pigment on the miraculous image.
Cactus cloth has a tough time lasting 500 years. Also, in the 1920's or 1930's, the Freemasons in Mexico tried to blow up the image but failed. In the new Basilica is about a four foot brass cross that was bent in two by the force of the blast. The glass covering the picture was uncracked.
In the 1920's they did not have bulletproof glass - at least for the image...
"How many mexicans believe that 'the Virgin of Guadalupe' is/was a demonic manifestation?"
Probably some.
Some also probably believe the moon is made out of green cheese.
People can believe the dumbest things, like those two previous things, for example.
And no, God is not a Jew.
God is God.
Jews are people.
Perhaops the images are not as clear as a bell, but the eyeball itself is clear as a bell, and disturbingly realistic too. It looks like a sonograph. This is a tiny image on cactus fiber from the early 1500s.
Very strange.
Very, very strange.
Play nice, now, amigo.
ping for your consideration.
I have seen this picture several times. I don't buy this story. This is more of the mysticism of the Roman church!
The symbolic nature of the picture was such that it made it possible for different tribes/cultures to communicate just by drawing the picture.
The Indians (natives) of Mexico/Central America/South America that employed human sacrifice were able to see the significance of the image by drawing it in the dirt.
It is a scientific fact that this ended the practice of human sacrifice by these peoples.
For example, there was some sort of ball game in Mexico City at the time of Cortez that the winner got to have his heart taken out of him (while it was still beating) as a sacrifice to the gods.
There have been SCIENTIFIC tests about the image sort of like what was done on the Shroud of Turin.
For example, NASA did some tests on the Shroud of Turin and these tests showed that that the Shroud was created by some sort of unknown energy.
The tests referred to in Francis Johnston's book were done by Kodak. The pupil of the eye basically showed the people standing around Saint Juan Diego when he opened his tilma (which was filled with roses).
Call Kodak Corp as the liars, not the Roman Catholic Church. It is the mysticm of the analysis done by Kodak...

|To Taste
Put chicken in a large kettle; add salt, black peppers, bay leaf, quartered onion, and celery.
Barely cover with boiling water; cover and simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until chicken is tender.
Let cool in the broth.
Remove chicken and cut into fairly large pieces.
Strain broth and reserve.
Put 2 cups of the broth in a saucepan and heat to boiling; slowly sprinkle in rice.
Cover tightly and cook over very low heat for about 25 minutes, or until all broth is absorbed.
Make a cream sauce by melting the butter in a saucepan, stirring in the flour until well blended, then gradually stirring in milk and cream.
Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened.
Season with salt and pepper.
In a greased large casserole put first a layer of rice, then a layer of chicken, then a layer of sauce; sprinkle with part of the pimiento, almonds, and mushrooms.
Repeat until all ingredients are used, ending with rice.
Cover with crumbs and bake in a 375° oven 45 to 60 minutes, until browned.
If desired, chicken gravy may be made by thickening the remaining broth with a flour and water paste, cooking until thickened.

Most of the buttons on a remote control are never used. So why not use them to control appliances and other electronics around your house. In this project, I am going to show you how to use an Arduino to decode the signal from your remote and use it to make an outlet switch that can turn your electronics on and off.
When you are done, you will be able to control lights, fans and even your coffee maker with your TV remote.
See the full series here.
Here's the project on Instructables.
// Upload this code to your Arduino
int RECV_PIN = 11;
IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN);
decode_results results;
unsigned long CurrentValue = 0;
unsigned long StoredCode = 0;
const int buttonPin = 6; // the number of the pushbutton pin
const int ledPin = 4; // the number of the LED pin
const int outputPin = 3; // the number of the output LED pin
const int relayPin = 2; // the number of the relay pin
int buttonState = 0; // variable for reading the pushbutton status
int RecordState = 0; //is the reciever in record mode
int outputState = 1; //is the output on or off
void setup()
irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver
// initialize the LED pin as an output:
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
// initialize the pushbutton pin as an input:
pinMode(outputPin, OUTPUT);
// initialize the pushbutton pin as an input: pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
pinMode(relayPin, OUTPUT);
// initialize the pushbutton pin as an input: pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
void loop() {
// read the state of the pushbutton value:
buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
// if a signal is detected, store the value
if (irrecv.decode(&results)) {
CurrentValue = (results.value);
// if the recieved value equals the programed value, then toggle the output state
if(CurrentValue == StoredCode) {
outputState = !outputState;
// if the record mode is activated store the current value as the programed value
if (RecordState == 1) {
StoredCode = CurrentValue;
RecordState = 0;
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
Serial.println(StoredCode); //displays stored code for reference
// Receive the next value
else //if no signal is detected, then the current value is 0
CurrentValue = 0;
// check if the record button is pressed.
// if it is, the buttonState is HIGH:
if (buttonState == HIGH) {
//wait for the button to be released
while (buttonState == HIGH) {
buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
//turn on the LED to indicate that record mode is on
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
RecordState = 1;
//set the appropriate output state
if(outputState == 1) {
digitalWrite(outputPin, HIGH);
digitalWrite(relayPin, HIGH);
else {
digitalWrite(outputPin, LOW);
digitalWrite(relayPin, LOW);
If you plug the Arduino into your computer, you can use the Serial Monitor tool to view the value of the IR signals for the various buttons on your remote. This gives you the option of manually inserting these values into the code. By doing this you can program responses to multiple buttons. It also means that you will not have to reprogram the receiver whenever the power is disconnected.

I'm surprised with those who are shocked by this from Garza, last year was really his only down year in HR/9.

i like.
I really hope those who thought Maholm had ANY serviceability will just stop after this start...I'm looking at you 1908 ;p
This times ten. The officiating has been questionable at BEST. And I'm convinced Boston wins in 5 if the refs didn't completely orchestrate some of the comebacks...I mean come on in game one Boston...
The kid needs to start walkin, idk how anyone can ignore his decreasing walk rate and mild K rate increase since he entered the league.
This. lol.
So how does everyone feel about Valby? (Valbuena)
I know :/ firstrow is great for them...mlb fageddaboutit
anyone know a website to stream this game? MLBtv blacks out national games assuming everyone has cable..
This. x10
People need to lay off Thibs on this one IMO.
We will lose to Boston in the 2nd round.
Bout time someone hit something off this POS. Only reason we are even in this game is because the Philly O sucks. Time to get Maholm out now, 1 K through 6 and 1/3 is garbage.
omfg Len and Bob are blind as the day is long. DeJesus clearly went and stepped on the plate afterwards.
Could LaHair potentially play third? Move Stewart over to 2nd, then bring up Riz for 1B and BJax for CF. Sori stays in LF, DeJesus in RF.

Re: Jose Perez Concert Guitar

In Reply to Hill Guitar Company : Jose Perez Concert Guitar
I also have a Jose Perez guitar that I bought in Melbourne, Australia at about 1970, almost forty years ago. I have no idea whether it is a concert guitar. Several people have told me it is a student guitar. But it sure doesn't play like one. It is the best guitar I have ever played on. And I have played on several good guitars. I would like to find out more about it. I bought it at that time for $A500. I have no plans to sell it however- not for all the tea in China.

Stock with black gonzos or other Cherry Boxxx videos.
Five motel room-style, one-on-one fuck scenes feature plenty of booty bouncing, doggie-style sex. But although Jazmine Cashmere easily sets the bar in this all-black video with her good looks, hot body and eager sexual enthusiasm, the rest of the girls don't even come close.
Nevertheless, the video does have its moments when the girls get on all fours and start rocking their jiggly asses back and forth. Things heat up decently enough.

There are some website that offer "escrow" services:
Selling/buying a domain is safe that way.
You can also do a down-payment (lets say 50%), the owner transfers the domain, and you pay the other 50%. The latter is more about trust.

Ecological restoration is widely employed from tens to millions of hectares in space, and from tens of days to thousands of years in time, which forces consideration of it thoroughly. We argue that three questions are the most important among the contents relevant of ecological restoration, including why, what and how to restore degraded systems. Why to restore determines whether or not the degraded ecological systems should be restored. What to restore is the goal of ecological restoration. The explicit goal of ecological restoration is necessary to guide ecological restoration workers in pursuit of excellence and prevent restoration from being swamped by purely technological activities. And how to restore means the methods and steps we should apply. To ensure the final success of ecological restoration, restored sites should be monitored and managed for long time to determine whether the selected methods are appropriate, and can be remedy better. Only to deal with these effectively, ecological restoration would be the hope for the future.

Community organizations play a vital role in responding to sensational sweeps coverage with their own anti-defamation campaigns. With this Sweeps Weeks Toolkit, GLAAD encourages community members to contact stations that air sensational coverage about the LGBT community and tell them how such stories spread inaccurate or defamatory myths about us.

Chanukah, Christmas, Eid al-Adha, Kwanzaa, New Year's, Muharram, the Lunar New Year and other seasonal celebrations will soon set the stage for countless news and feature stories in mainstream and ethnic print and electronic media.
GLAAD released a new survey conducted by Harris Interactive in the wake of the passage of and protests against California's Proposition 8. The survey reveals that majorities of Americans favor a broad range of policies and legal protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people.

Designing this elegant tower presented a particular challenge for the architects. They wanted to translate into Architecture, the image and style of one of the most recognized designers in the fashion industry.
"It is always difficult to crystallize the image of someone, particularly a person as well known as Giorgio Armani, one of the most famous figures in the world. For the Armani/Ginza Tower, it was considered essential to project not just his creativity as a designer but his special aura, recreating the atmosphere of the atelier of this Italian creative genius, as well as his aesthetic code and his personal image."
How to translate these qualities into architecture? How to combine the concept of luxury with restrained elegance, the concept of absolute modernity with a lasting style… the Armani style?
It is in Tokyo that for the first time ever that his output in its integrity is getting displayed within the same building. Tokyo, a city alive with continuous movement. The brightly lit buildings pulsate with the vibrant speed of the traffic all around them, creating through a ceaseless flux of brilliant images the expression of a metropolitan spirit.
The irresistible appeal of the big oriental capital cities consists in the rapidity and speed of their endless transformations. These are cities that pulsate like living organisms, continually modified to adapt to the needs of new inhabitants. They represent the polar opposite to European cities, so dark, secret and suffocated by history.
The architect were wondering how to translate the concept of his featherweight clothes, the delicacy and the craftsmanship of his embroidery, the sensuality of the interplay between body and fabric? His vision and relentless research into materials, together with his use of delicate, translucent and radiant colours are key factors that prompted this consideration. They explored a host of ideas, experimenting with new textures, modelled, sculpted, emptied, dematerialised spaces using light, the evanescence of an intimate sensation that is, however, born in from the exterior.
"We have sought to reveal the world of Armani through a range of screens, as light as gossamer and as precious as silk. The sophisticated image of the Giorgio Armani brand rich in translucence and intimacy is juxtaposed with the immediacy and modernity of the spaces dedicated to Emporio, identified by more expansive areas in which shafts of white light cut through and are reflected within the setting. But the most important aspect that we wanted to incorporate along the internal pathway between the zones is the element of surprise. To seek to incite emotion is as much the remit of the architect as it is of the designer."
Working with the designer has been an unusual assignment for Doriana and Massimiliano Fuksas, usually it is the building, the external architecture that takes precedence over the content. For the Ginza project the opposite has been true: the exterior is a glass tower, totally merging into the Ginza skyline, its glass surface mirroring and relaying reflections of the sky and the surrounding buildings, full of different lights and colours throughout both day and night. The permeability of the surface is toned down by a cascade of brightly lit leaves that delicately float down the facades and, according to the time of day or the season, are modified in intensity and colour.
"This has been like working under a microscope, examining every tiny little detail, trying to find the ultimate solution."
Contrary to most other projects where the client is rarely encountered, Giorgio Armani has been deeply involved, always ready to engage with every little adaptation of the concept.
"His indefatigable curiosity and collaboration throughout the creative process have shown him to be the ideal client…"
