The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
I think you should consider 803.07(C). I have never really known what the rule authors meant by "consciously" in that rule, but you weren't unconcious or in a fugue state, presumably.
But don't quit playing league over a stupid mistake, especially if that player does not think it affected his score any. Most leagues play by relaxed PDGA rules anyway.
Views: 220
Our group of players is pretty good and everyone is really close to be on the same level of playing ability. Some days our group can exceed 12 or more players, and when it gets above 5, we random flip and play doubles. We have played odd man out using the Cali rule since I can remember, and I hate it. Most of the courses we play are long, so there really is an advantage to having 2 shots per lie for the doubles guys, but the odd man out gets screwed. I guess because I am such a whiner they allow me, if I'm the odd man out, to flip one more time to see if I play Cali rules that day or if I get 2 shots per lie.
If I get 2 shots per lie, I usually win, but it's still competetive. If I am stuck under Cali rules for the round, it's a guaranteed loss. I don't know of another cool sounding format to refer to for the guys to sound off on.
Alright Chuck, what about this. Say that the same thing happened (only this time it was a foot fault) and the player admitted his mistake after the round but nobody called it during the round. Now what would happen since the penalty for that would be a warning. What if the player admitted to doing it multiple times? There simply is no provision for this sort of thing in the rules since it needs to be observed by at least one member of the group and seconded by another. I realize that all of this is hypothetical and highly unlikely. I doubt that any player would all of a sudden decide that they had to admit to foot fault violations or that nobody in a group would not see it and in fact call it.
Also in my case all of the awards (money) had been given out by the time I noticed what was going on. In fact, by the time I noticed that I had my friend's disc he had already won his playoff for second. So according to the rules, no score change could be made at that time.
I already pointed out that foot faults are time dependent calls so not relevant to this discussion.
The TD declares when an event is over. You were the de facto TD. Since you never formally declared the event over even with the payouts being distributed, you still had the power to correct the problem should it have been necessary. For example, let's say a player discovered a penalty situation just before the award ceremony started. He waits until the awards are distributed before telling the TD, figuring the event is over an the penalty couldn't be applied. The TD discovers from some other player that this player held back the info that affected the resutls. The TD could report this player to the PDGA for cheating. Although in your case, the error was discovered right about the time the payouts were completed, don't you think TDs should be held to a higher standard to avoid the possible hint of cheating?
I would disagree that I was in any way a de facto TD. A TD has to take a rules test and all that I have to do is show up and take money. But that is kind of beyond the point since my partner had already left with his money. In the end, trying to say that this was indeed a penalty (which I don't agree that it was since nobody in the group called it) and trying to get everyone back to the course would have just been beyond the scope of what could have been accomplished in this particular situation.
I still believe (and you can disagree) that the interference call would be time dependent as well. Anyway, there is an obvious difference between a real tournament and a weekly "friendly doubles'. In both cases the rules need to be observed but being that our competitions are much less formal it just wouldn't have made any sense to try and remedy the situation in any other way than it was taken care of. I admitted fault, apologized to my friend and we all went about our business.
Definitely an interesting discussion however and maybe the whole time dependence of this rule (or not) could be more explicitly laid out in the rules.
All of my discussion was how it could have been done in a sanctioned event, especially since doubles rules are less well defined. I presume you made the original post to find out what should have been done under the assumption you did the right thing for your particular situation which wasn't sanctioned.
You are correct and I do appreciate your input. I will definitely know this rule in the future and how it applies. Thanks for chiming in with the information.
Hopefully in the future I won't have any more huge brain farts and I will only be picking up my disc.
I forgot to turn in the scorecard at lunch after playing for almost 20 years which penalized everyone on my card 2 throws. Hopefully the only time that will ever happen but I expect I may suffer some other brain farts if I play another 20.

Jim Thompson Museum
The Jim Thompson House is the home of James H.W. Thompson, a self-made American entrepreneur who was the founder of the world renowned Jim Thompson Thai Silk Company. Thompson's achievements during his 25 year stay in the Kingdom of Thailand have won him much fame as the "Legendary American of Thailand".
For his contribution to the development of the Thai Silk industry, Jim Thompson was awarded the Order of the White Elephant, a decoration bestowed upon foreigners for having rendered exceptional service to Thailand. Thompson's success story in Thailand has become one of the most popular postwar legends of Asia.
Since his disappearance in 1967, little has changed in the home that was the 'talk of the town' and the 'city's most celebrated social center'. Even today, the charming Thai style house continues to be a key stop for visitors to Bangkok.
The house consists of a complex of six traditional Thai-style houses, teak structures that were purchased from several owners and brought to the present location from various parts of Thailand. Construction of the Thai house was completed in 1959.
The Jim Thompson House is located on Soi Kasemsan (2) Song, opposite the National Stadium on Rama I Rd.
Getting to the Jim Thompson House: Located in the center of Bangkok, it is conveniently reached by car, taxi, tuk tuk, or the Sky Train (Bangkok Transit System).

I go to work for a few hours and miss all the fun!
Gwenllian Atalanta Elaine is gorgeous.
Gwenllian Calliope Selene- How do we feel about muses with Gwenllian? Calliope is gorgeous, and I like the sound with Gwenllian. Selene has an otherworldly feel to me and I just love it.
Gwenllian Terpsichore Eileen- Have I mentioned I love the muses? I think so. I like Eileen with Terpsichore because its beautiful, and its close to Elaine, but doesnt have a repeating sound with Terpsichore.
Gwenllian Cassandra Giselle- I love the way this sounds, and the look of the double L's on paper.
Gwenllian Ophelia Circe- Just came to mind. I love Ophelia, and it ties her name and Dita's in a way since Illyria is shakespearean.

Ha, I am not that late. So excited to finally combo delicious Gwenlliam, I like how you see her!

Gwenllian Atalanta Eilonwy
I think you did perfectly with Gwenllian Circe Eilonwy though, smooth and warm all around.
I asked Mr Vics just for fun and he said Gwenllian is his favorite among all Gwen-names(that's fun because I though he was only familiar with Gwendolen but no, he heard of Gwenllian before) and voted for Gwenllian comboed with Circe. I hope you don't mind his opinionVictoria

Gwenllian! I love her. She's a character in a story I wrote, and eventually ended up painting because she's so fierce and gorgeous and wouldn't get out of my head. I'm loving her with Eilonwy, because Eilonwy is fierce in her own way as well. Gwenllian Circe Eilonwy is my favorite of your combos so far. There's something about Cassandra that works beautifully with Gwenllian as well, though. Ah! Too many wonderful options with Gwen. I have nothing more to add right now, because I'm finding Gwenllian Circe Eilonwy to be perfection. I'll read some suggestions from other posters and get some sleep and see if I'm inspired, but gosh, there's such wildness in that combo.Artemis Willow ☀ Cordelia Avalon ☀ Isabeau Forest ☀ Isadora Nightingale ☀ Lorelei Ondine ☀ Lyra Snow ☀ Pandora Everild ☀ Tabitha Eilonwy ☀ Thisbe Wildrose ☀ Thora Silmarien

The always-hopping Palm of Gay D.C., the 18th & U Duplex Diner, was the scene of a host of parties last Saturday night, Sept. 22, and Hearsay was there to hiccup its way through the evening. The night kicked off with a private event for Rex "Not My Porn Name" Varner's 40th birthday, given by his boyfriend Tom "My Toast Had Everyone" Balling. Hearsay wasn't supposed to be there, but it hid beneath a table and watched from below, developing a foot fetish in the process. It thought it spied the wingtip of Larry "Please Pass the Toilet Paper" Craig, but realized that certain telltale scuff marks were in the wrong spot.
At precisely 11:32 p.m., Duplex proprietor Eric "I Will Personally Pickle Your Herring" Hirshfield and his hunky-dory staff lowered the drawbridge to the public to celebrate the Diner's ranking on Out Magazine's 50 Best List. It was at this point, Hearsay felt it could emerge from its secret spot and hit the bar, which it did as a horde of birthday boys suddenly swarmed the Diner. Celebrating yet another year of shameless, hedonistic existence were Greg "Always" Smiley, Lawrence "Sweetie I Now Live in Seattle" Yanovitch, Scott "Consuela" Foster, Steve "Post Poste Party" Culbertson, Jeff "Flashdance" Larivee and Justin "Damn, I Already Came!" Cummings. Things got even wilder when the Awesome '80s Prom Party hosted by Horatio "Blanche" Oliveira and someone named after an Ivy League College at the nearby home of Tim "I Hope the Floor Doesn't Cave-in" Isgitt broke up and headed over for late night libations.
A handful of customers manned the makeshift iPod DJ set-up including Jeff "No, I Won't Play Umbrella Again" Aldridge, Kamran "Pump up the Jam" Naim and Kris "Bringing Back the '80s" Nelson. Hearsay suggests they don't quit their day jobs anytime soon.
Also celebrating this same night after their Yom Kippur Breakfast Dinner were Wes "I Got Straight (I Mean Gay) A's in Hebrew School" Combs, Gary "Hell Yeah, I Fasted! I Fasted Faster than Anyone's Ever Fasted Before!" Seiden, and Marvin & Dan, freshly cleansed of their sins, who schlepped all the way from Baltimore for a bagel and a shmear and a sliver -- "just a sliver, we're watching our sodium intake" -- of lox. It was a happy new year for all....

Police are still looking for the person who shot and killed a 25-year-old Elkhart man and hurt two innocent bystanders outside a Dunlap bar. Investigators identified the victim as Cordero Williams-El because of tattoos on his body. WSBT found out this wasn't the first time there's been trouble outside Gemini's Bar & Grill, but one of the owners said she's done everything she can to keep customers safe.
"I basically panicked, I cried," Tawana McBride said, describing what happened at the bar just hours before. "It touched me. I didn't know who he was but to sit there and watch somebody die like that, I've never seen anything like it before."
Witnesses said Williams-El was walking down a sidewalk on the side of the building when a car in the parking lot started shooting at him. Witnesses told WSBT Williams-El then got out his own gun and returned fire at the suspect car in the parking lot. He opened up his door to go inside, fell on a door mat and died.
Security cameras outside the building captured a lot of it and that footage was turned over to police, said McBride.

"From that video it showed that it must have been a beef. Had nothing to do with the bar," she added.
She also said she took steps to make the bar safer after shots were fired in the parking lot a few months ago – including pat downs and metal detector wands at the door, hiring off duty police officers as security guards and calling police to patrol the parking lot when the club closes on weekends.
"Half the time they don't care if the officers are out there or not," she said. "They still fight and carry on and do what they do."
She said she was already in the process of selling her part of the business and what happened there Thanksgiving night only reinforced that.
"It's scary to me because I have a family I have to go home to. So that's another reason I'm getting out of it," McBride added.
Police did not say anything about a motive or suspect Friday and were also not releasing names of the two women, who were shot. They were described as being in their early 30s and police said they did not have life-threatening injuries.
Williams-El was in the bar before the shooting happened but McBride said he would not have had a gun on him then because of Gemini's strict security measures.
Court documents show Williams-El was convicted of domestic violence in front of a child in 2010. He was also arrested about two months ago for resisting law enforcement.

[Photo: President Obama at a White House LGBT Pride Month Reception. (Photo by Ward Morrison.)]
"Should we settle for an economy where a few people do really well and then a growing number are struggling to get by? Or do we build an economy where people ... [ha]ve got a chance to get ahead, where there are ladders of opportunity, where everybody gets a fair shot, and everybody does their fair share, and everybody is playing by the same set of rules?"
President Obama, whose White House last week announced his decision not to take executive action to prohibit federal contractors from discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity, posed those questions at Lorain County Community College in Elyria, Ohio, today.
Although Obama portrayed the first question as rhetorically referencing the Republican theory of economics and governing and the second as his and the Democrats' theory, the discussion from White House press secretary Jay Carney was less ambitious on Tuesday, April 17.
"At this time, we believe that the right approach is to build support for passage of [Employment Non-Discrimination Act] legislation," he said of legislation that is almost certain not to come to consideration in the Republican-led House and staying away from talking about LGBT workers getting a "fair shot" in this Congress.
Instead, Carney said, "[A]t this time we are not pursuing an executive order. I'm not going to speculate about executive orders that may or may not be pursued in the future. What I'm saying is: Right now, we're not."
In a Roll Call article published earlier today, out gay Rep. Jared Polis (D-Colo.) took issue with that decision, saying, "Without a Congress that's willing to pass [the Employment Non-Discrimination Act], I wish the president was a little more aggressive to pursue nondiscrimination."

PH Treatments: What's on the Horizon
Watch Dr. Michael McGoon's webinar presentation from April 2013
Twenty years ago there were no pulmonary hypertension treatments available. Through focused research there are now twelve PH-specific treatments with more in development. But we know that your ultimate wish is for a cure, and that is why PHA will continue to support the work of researchers until the day when no one suffers from PH.
In just a little under a decade, PHA's Research Program has committed more than $12.5 million for PH research by leveraging partnerships with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the American Thoracic Society (ATS). We have supported over 49 promising researchers through four independently reviewed, cutting-edge research programs.

The Food and Drug Administration is making changes in how they approve drugs. For the first time ever, they are asking, "What do patients want from new drugs?" Hundreds of disease communities have asked for a chance to answer that question. PAH is one of only sixteen diseases selected by the FDA for this discussion. Please help us make a better tomorrow for PAH patients by attending in person or listening in and submitting comments via webcast on May 13. Take these two steps to RSVP for this exciting opportunity:
Science Codex - Most of us draw roughly 25,000 breaths a day without any thought. But for patients with pulmonary hypertension, a life-threatening increase in blood pressure in the lungs, even the smallest task can leave them gasping for air. A new study by researchers at Yale School of Medicine offers insight into the function of cells linked to this incurable and often fatal illness. Read article
In 2012, PHA established the Robyn J. Barst Pediatric PH Research and Mentoring Fund in memory of Dr. Barst, a pioneer in the field of pediatric pulmonary hypertension research and treatment. On May 27, 2014, the 2014 grantees, Dr. Mehdi Fini and Dr. Melanie Nies, will discuss their research and the potential applications for pediatric PH treatments in this live webinar. Dr. Mehdi Fini has been awarded the Cordelia's Pediatric Mentoring and Research Grant through the Barst Fund.

A team of researchers, led by physicians and scientists at Intermountain Healthcare's Intermountain Medical Center and ARUP Laboratories, has made a medical breakthrough by discovering genetic mutations that cause a rare and deadly lung disease. The disease, pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis or PCH, is a rare cause of pulmonary hypertension, which occurs predominantly in young adults. PCH affects less than one in a million people, and has been extremely difficult and expensive to diagnose, as well as challenging to treat. Read PHA's full release

Energy policy
Energy policy is the manner in which a given entity (often governmental) has decided to address issues of energy development including energy production, distribution and consumption. The attributes of energy policy may include legislation, international treaties, incentives to investment, guidelines for energy conservation, taxation and other public policy techniques.
- 1 National energy policy
- 2 State, province or municipal energy policy
- 3 Americas
- 4 Europe
- 5 Asia
- 6 Oceania
- 7 See also
- 8 References
- 9 External links
National energy policy[edit]
Measures used to produce an energy policy[edit]
A national energy policy comprises a set of measures involving that country's laws, treaties and agency directives. The energy policy of a sovereign nation may include one or more of the following measures:
- statement of national policy regarding energy planning, energy generation, transmission and usage
- legislation on commercial energy activities (trading, transport, storage, etc.)
- legislation affecting energy use, such as efficiency standards, emission standards
- instructions for state-owned energy sector assets and organizations
- active participation in, co-ordination of and incentives for mineral fuels exploration (see geological survey) and other energy-related research and development policy command
- fiscal policies related to energy products and services (taxes, exemptions, subsidies ...
- energy security and international policy measures such as:
- international energy sector treaties and alliances,
- general international trade agreements,
- special relations with energy-rich countries, including military presence and/or domination.
Frequently the dominant issue of energy policy is the risk of supply-demand mismatch (see: energy crisis). Current energy policies also address environmental issues (see: climate change). Some governments state explicit energy policy, but, declared or not, each government practices some type of energy policy. Economic and energy modelling can be used by governmental or inter-governmental bodies as an advisory and analysis tool (see: economic model, POLES).
Factors within an energy policy[edit]
There are a number of elements that are naturally contained in a national energy policy, regardless of which of the above measures was used to arrive at the resultant policy. The chief elements intrinsic to an energy policy are:
- What is the extent of energy self-sufficiency for this nation
- Where future energy sources will derive
- How future energy will be consumed (e.g. among sectors)
- What fraction of the population will be acceptable to endure energy poverty
- What are the goals for future energy intensity, ratio of energy consumed to GDP
- What is the reliability standard for distribution reliability
- What environmental externalities are acceptable and are forecast
- What form of "portable energy" is forecast (e.g. sources of fuel for motor vehicles)
- How will energy efficient hardware (e.g. hybrid vehicles, household appliances) be encouraged
- How can the national policy drive province, state and municipal functions
- What specific mechanisms (e.g. taxes, incentives, manufacturing standards) are in place to implement the total policy
- What future consequences there will be for national security and foreign policy[1]
State, province or municipal energy policy[edit]
Even within a state it is proper to talk about energy policies in plural. Influential entities, such as municipal or regional governments and energy industries, will each exercise policy. Policy measures available to these entities are lesser in sovereignty, but may be equally important to national measures. In fact, there are certain activities vital to energy policy which realistically cannot be administered at the national level, such as monitoring energy conservation practices in the process of building construction, which is normally controlled by state-regional and municipal building codes (although can appear basic federal legislation).
Brazil is the 10th largest energy consumer in the world and the largest in South America. At the same time, it is an important oil and gas producer in the region and the world's second largest ethanol fuel producer. The governmental agencies responsible for energy policy are the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME), the National Council for Energy Policy (CNPE, in the Portuguese-language acronym), the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) and the National Agency of Electricity (ANEEL).[2][3] State-owned companies Petrobras and Eletrobrás are the major players in Brazil's energy sector.[4]
United States[edit]
European Union[edit]
Although the European Union has legislated, set targets, and negotiated internationally in the area of energy policy for many years, and evolved out of the European Coal and Steel Community, the concept of introducing a mandatory common European Union energy policy was only approved at the meeting of the European Council on October 27, 2005 in London. Following this the first policy proposals, Energy for a Changing World, were published by the European Commission, on January 10, 2007.
United Kingdom[edit]
The energy policy of the United Kingdom has achieved success in (a) reducing energy intensity (but still really high), (b) reducing energy poverty and (c) maintaining energy supply reliability to date. The United Kingdom has an ambitious goal to reduce carbon dioxide emissions for future years, but it is unclear whether the programs in place are sufficient to achieve this objective (the way to be so efficient as France is still hard). Regarding energy self sufficiency, the United Kingdom policy does not address this issue, other than to concede historic energy self sufficiency is currently ceasing to exist (due to the decline of the North Sea oil production). With regard to transport, the United Kingdom historically has a good policy record encouraging public transport links with cities, despite encountering problems with high speed trains, which have the potential to reduce dramatically domestic and short-haul European flights. The policy does not, however, significantly encourage hybrid vehicle use or ethanol fuel use, options which represent viable short term means to moderate rising transport fuel consumption. Regarding renewable energy, the United Kingdom has goals for wind and tidal energy. The White Paper on Energy, 2007, set the target that 20% of the UK's energy must come from renewable sources by 2020.
The Soviet Union and Russia[edit]
The Soviet Union was the largest energy provider in the world until the late 1980s. Russia, one of the world's energy superpowers, is rich in natural energy resources, the world's leading net energy exporter, and a major supplier to the European Union. The main document defining the energy policy of Russia is the Energy Strategy, which initially set out policy for the period up to 2020, later was reviewed, amended and prolonged up to 2030. While Russia has also signed and ratified the Kyoto Protocol.
The energy policy of India is characterized by trades between four major drivers:
- Rapidly growing economy, with a need for dependable and reliable supply of electricity, gas, and petroleum products;
- Increasing household incomes, with a need for affordable and adequate supply of electricity, and clean cooking fuels;
- Limited domestic reserves of fossil fuels, and the need to import a vast fraction of the gas, crude oil, and petroleum product requirements, and recently the need to import coal as well; and
- Indoor, urban and regional environmental impacts, necessitating the need for the adoption of cleaner fuels and cleaner technologies.
In recent years, these challenges have led to a major set of continuing reforms, restructuring and a focus on energy conservation.
The energy policy of Thailand is characterized by 1) increasing energy consumption efficiency, 2) increasing domestic energy production, 3) increasing the private sector's role in the energy sector, 4) increasing the role of market mechanisms in setting energy prices. These policies have been consistent since the 1990s, despite various changes in governments. The pace and form of industry liberalization and privatization has been highly controversial.
Australia's energy policy features a combination of coal power stations, and hydro electricity plants. The Australian Government has decided not to build nuclear power, although it is one of the world's largest producers of uranium..

I think I'm sophisticated 'cause I'm livin' my life like a good homo sapien...
by: Father TymeA question for any genetics experts out there.
We recently heard from his self-coronated, exalted majesty that:
On his radio show today, Beck wondered how many people in the country believe in evolution, and said he doesn't: "I don't think we came from monkeys. I think that's ridiculous. I haven't seen a half-monkey, half-person yet." "If I get to the other side and God's like, 'You know what, yep, you were a monkey once,' I'll be shocked, but I'll be cool with it," he said.
(First off, He's presuming he's going to meet with a divine being after living such a pious life)
Here's the question:
If a man is born with 6 fingers on each hand and should meet and marry a woman who also has six fingers on each hand, what kind of odds would allow for their offspring to be born with 6 fingers on each hand?
And if they were born thusly and met and married others with similar attributes would their progeny become the "norm" in succeeding generations?
Would that not be "evolution?"
For Glenn.

Question: "I'm 61 years old, should I roll a 401k into an existing IRA?"
This is a question at the top of a large number of individual investors minds, especially those between 30 and 50. The reason being, more and more folks change jobs at a far more frequent pace than the previous generation did. It is not uncommon for someone in today's market to have 2-3 jobs before they hit 30. And with each of those jobs is likely a separate 401k plan.
So the question is, "what do you do with those 401k's when you leave the company?"
Well, for one you don't have to do anything. You can leave the 401k where it is at as long as the company has not separated from the provider, in which case you will receive a notice asking you If you want to take a distribution, roll over to a 401k or roll over to an IRA.
However, this could present a problem for the proactive investor as multiple 401k's in different places can become extremely difficult to manage. It is much easier to control your investments when you have them all in one place (not one investment but one brokerage account, IRA, etc).
Another option is to open an IRA account or rollover in an existing IRA account. This will enable you to take all of your old 401k plans and consolidate them into one location. Making it easier on you to proactively manage the account. Not to mention, for those of you who are taking the next step and actively investing in the market, IRA's will typically provide you with more investing vehicles than simply mutual funds which is all that many 401k's offer.
The one item that I want all to take away from this is that you do not have to cash out a 401k when you leave a company, and I highly recommend that you do not unless the circumstances are dire and require you to access the money. Increasingly we are hearing more and more cases, especially during the recent recession, of folks simply cashing out a 401k because "there wasn't much money in it". Well folks, that money adds up, and when you cash out a 401k you get hit with both a penalty and are taxed on the money you are taking out. A double whammy! Not to mention that money stops working for you and begins working against you. So when you leave a company and are tempted by the letter asking you if you want to take a distribution, think long and hard about the decision, and roll over to another account with no tax consequences if possible.

NFL Draft
Another Pro Bowl bonanza for 49ers
Whitner, Goldson named NFC's starting safeties
NinersDigest.com staff
Posted Dec 27, 2012
When the AFC offense looks across the line of scrimmage in the 2013 Pro Bowl, it could be a lot like looking into the heart of the 49ers defense. Five San Francisco defenders were named starters for the Jan. 27 game at Aloha Stadium in Hawaii as the 49ers led all NFL teams with nine players selected to the league's annual all-star game - seven of them as starters.
The 49ers, of course, hope they won't have anybody playing in the game, which will be held the week before Super Bowl XLVII kicks off in New Orleans. No players from the two Super Bowl contestants participate in the Pro Bowl.
The Niners had more than half of their starting defense selected as Pro Bowlers, with tackle
Justin Smith
, linebackers
Patrick Willis
Aldon Smith
and safeties
Dashon Goldson
Donte Whitner
selected as starters.
NaVorro Bowman
– who teams with Willis at middle linebacker to form a dynamic duo in the middle of San Francisco's rugged 3-4 defense – also was named as a Pro Bowler for the first time.
The Niners also had two players named as NFC starters on offense.
Joe Staley
will start at left tackle for the second consecutive season, and left guard
Mike Iupati
also will be a starter in his first trip to the Pro Bowl.
Running back
Frank Gore
was named to the NFC team for the second consecutive season and fourth overall.
The 49ers also had eight players selected as Pro Bowl alternates. That list includes right guard
Alex Boone
, outside linebacker
Ahmad Brooks
, right offensive tackle
Anthony Davis
, tight end
Vernon Davis
, center
Jonathan Goodwin
, punter
Andy Lee
, cornerback
Carlos Rogers
and special teamer C.J. Spillman.
Here's a look at each of San Francisco's nine Pro Bowl selections:
LB Navorro Bowman:
The third-year pro is making his first trip to the Pro Bowl. He leads the team with a career-high 180 tackles, while adding 2.0 sacks, five tackles for loss, one interception, one forced fumble and five passes defensed. A first-team All-Pro selection in 2011, Bowman ranks fourth in the NFL with 276 tackles since 2011, according to game book statistics. Bowman has played in 47 games (32 starts) since being drafted by the 49ers in the third round of the 2010 NFL Draft.
FS Dashon Goldson:
The sixth-year pro is making his second consecutive trip to the Pro Bowl and was selected as a starter for the first time. He leads the 49ers with three interceptions while adding 106 tackles, two fumble recoveries, one forced fumble and a career-high 11 passes defensed. Goldson has played in 80 games (63 starts) since being drafted by the 49ers in the fourth round of the 2007 NFL Draft.
RB Frank Gore:
The eighth-year pro, who will be making his fourth Pro Bowl appearance, has rushed for 1,146 yards and seven touchdowns on 238 carries (4.8 avg.) this season, to go along with 25 receptions for 213 yards and one receiving touchdown. It marks Gore's franchise-record sixth 1,000-yard rushing season. A Pro Bowler in 2006, 2009 and 2011, Gore has played in 115 games (101 starts) since being drafted in the third round of the 2005 NFL Draft out of Miami by the 49ers. He is the franchise's all-time leading rusher with 8,771 yards.
LG Mike Iupati:
The third-year pro is making his first trip to the Pro Bowl as a starter. Iupati is part of an offensive line that helped the team rush for 2,362 yards this season, ranking fourth in the NFL. The 2,362 rushing yards rank seventh in franchise history and are the most by San Francisco since 1998 (2,544). Iupati and the offensive line were awarded the Madden Most Valuable Protectors Award in Weeks 5, 7 and 12. He was originally drafted by the 49ers in the first round (17th overall) of the 2010 NFL Draft.
OLB Aldon Smith:
San Francisco's first-round draft pick last year, Smith was selected a Pro Bowl starter in just his second NFL season. Smith has set the 49ers franchise record with 19.5 sacks this season, which currently ranks first in the NFC and second in the NFL. The second-year pro has also recorded 80 tackles, three forced fumbles, one interception and one pass defensed. Since 2011, he has registered 33.5 sacks, the most by any player in their first two years in NFL history. He has played in 31 games (15 starts) since being the No. 7 overall selection in the 2011 draft.
DT Justin Smith:
The 12th-year veteran was selected a NFC starter for the second year in a row while earning his fourth consecutive Pro Bowl appearance. He ranks third on the team with a career-high 130 tackles, to go along with 3.0 sacks, one fumble recovery and two passes defensed. He also leads the team with 83 quarterback pressures and 56 quarterback hits. A free agent acquisition by the 49ers in 2008, Smith has played in 189 games (185 starts) since being drafted in the first round (4th overall) of the 2001 NFL Draft by the
Cincinnati Bengals
. He had his string of 185 consecutive starts – third-longest among active NFL players – ended when he sat out last week's game at Seattle with an elbow injury.
OT Joe Staley:
Making his second consecutive trip to the Pro Bowl, the sixth-year pro was selected a starter for the second year in a row. He is part of an offensive line that helped the team rush for 2,362 yards this season, ranking fourth in the NFL. The 2,362 rushing yards rank seventh in franchise history and are the most by San Francisco since 1998 (2,544). Staley and the offensive line were awarded the Madden Most Valuable Protectors Award in Weeks 5, 7 and 12. He was originally drafted by the 49ers in the first round (28th overall) of the 2007 NFL Draft.
SS Donte Whitner:
The seventh-year pro will be making his first career Pro Bowl appearance, and he'll be doing it as a NFC starter. Whitner ranks fourth on the team with 112 tackles in addition to a career-high two forced fumbles, one interception and five passes defensed. A free agent acquisition by the 49ers in 2011, Whitner has started 96 of 99 since being drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the first round (8th overall) of the 2006 NFL Draft.
ILB Patrick Willis:
The All-Pro linebacker becomes the first player in 49ers franchise history to make it to the Pro Bowl in each of his first six NFL seasons. Selected as a starter for the fifth consecutive year, Willis currently ranks second on the 49ers with 164 tackles to go along with 0.5 sacks, two interceptions, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery and 9 passes defensed. Willis has started all 91 games in which he has appeared since being drafted by the 49ers in the first round (11th overall) of the 2007 NFL Draft.

Grand Rapids, Mich., dedicates historic marker to fluoridation
Grand Rapids, Mich.—The city's historic Monroe Avenue Water Filtration Plant, where community fluoridation began in 1945, has gotten new life as the redeveloped Clear Water Place complex.
But its old life came into focus when its historic roots were celebrated in a dedication ceremony last month.
City- and state-level dignitaries as well as members of the West Michigan District Dental Society Fluoride Commemorative Committee gathered Sept. 30 as two Michigan registered historic site markers were dedicated. The markers, commemorating the establishment of Grand Rapids' water treatment facility in 1910 and fluoridation of the city's water in conjunction with a long-term study of the effectiveness of fluoride in preventing caries, are positioned outside the Clear Water Place complex. Built in 1912 and expanded in 1924, the renovated and restored building now contains luxury apartments and office space.
The ceremony was especially moving for Dr. Chase Klinesteker, a member of the WMDDS Fluoride Commemorative Committee, since he was a participant in the historic study by Grand Rapids, the U.S. Public Health Service, the Michigan Department of Health and the University of Michigan School of Dentistry.
"I was 5 years old when the study began," said Dr. Klinesteker, a life member of the Michigan Dental Association and the ADA.
"In 1944, my father, Dr. Russell E. Klinesteker, was president of the WMDDS and was one of the people instrumental in getting the city council to participate in the study," he said. "I remember getting exams at school. I remember being X-rayed. I also remember being given tin cylinders with wax in them. You would chew the wax and then provide saliva samples for the study."
Dr. John Bouws and Dr. Jim Wieland were also instrumental members of the committee for the historic marker project and handled the planning, state approvals and setup. The committee has long been active and its achievements include establishing a monument near the Grand River commemorating fluoridation's 50th anniversary, petitioning to get a commemorative stamp and commissioning the "Steel Water" sculpture that was unveiled on the riverfront in 2007.
