SC boys race past GW
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- South Charleston didn't disappoint its fans on the state's biggest stage Wednesday night at the Civic Center.
Senior guard Rashaud Kincaid made sure of that, hitting all five of his 3-point attempts and finishing with 17 points in leading a first-quarter shooting barrage that put the Black Eagles in the drivers seat in a 60-40 decision over George Washington. A crowd of about 3,000 attended the Class AAA boys high school basketball matchup.
Kincaid knocked down three 3s in the opening quarter as SC jumped out to a 24-9 lead and GW was never able to recover. The Black Eagles (2-0) connected on 10 of 16 shots in the first period and made all four of their 3s.
"I think we just wanted to come out and just give our fans something to cheer,'' said Kincaid. "They're our rivals and we always want to play hard. We had some pretty good looks from 3 and nobody hesitated. They went down for us.''
Senior post Trevond Reese chipped in 12 points, including six in the first period, with six rebounds for the Black Eagles and senior guard Devon Harris added nine points.
SC never had another quarter like the first, netting 36 points in the other three periods, but they didn't need it after taking a 34-16 advantage at halftime. The Black Eagles made 9 of 11 3-pointers, including 6-of-10 in the first half.
"They're good,'' said GW coach Rick Greene of SC. "They're one of the top three or four teams in the state easily.
"If they shoot that well, I don't know who's going to be able to take them out. You can't defend them everywhere. We just don't have enough firepower to overcome that. I wasn't real happy how we approached. I thought we weren't aggressive enough coming in.''
What was even more impressive, the Black Eagles played without two key contributors in A.D. Cunningham and Kevin Williams, who were out for disciplinary reasons, according to SC coach Vic Herbert.
"We came out and shot the lights out,'' said Herbert. "I can't be any happier. [We have] been notorious for getting off to bad starts. We got off to a good, sharp start.
"Hopefully, that'll be a trend for us because we're traditionally a slow-starting team. We were pretty good for a half and pretty bad for a second half. I think we've got a chance to be pretty good. We've got a lot of work to do. A lot of work. We've got a chance.''
Senior guard Luke Eddy, who has signed to play at Division I Elon, tallied 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds for GW (1-2) and was the only player to score in double figures.
"We're going to get better,'' said Greene, whose team played its first game at the Civic Center since losing to Hedgesville by one point in the Class AAA state championship game last March. "We need to play these people.
"This is really good competition for our kids. We just have to mesh a lot of kids, but they're trying. I wouldn't write our obituary yet. They're really good kids and they've been working hard. We've just got to get better.''
The Patriots (3-1) led 26-12 at the half in the girls game and held South Charleston to zero points in the third quarter.
Taliah Cashwell led the Black Eagles (4-3) with 11 points in the loss.

Emily Maynard is down to four guys on "The Bachelorette." Shooting has already wrapped, but the finale won't air until next month. The Big Fat Rumor of the Day says Emily has found love on the show, but not with one of the remaining bachelors - Arie, Sean, Jef or Chris. They say she's "madly in love" with host Chris Harrison. In addition to anonymous insiders, "Star" magazine has quotes from Vienna Girardi, who won "The Bachelor" the season before Emily did. Vienna says, "From the beginning, I always said there was no way Emily was really going to end up with one of the guys because she really wanted to be with Chris, and it was obvious he wanted to be with her too. I vacationed with Chris and his family in St. Lucia, and I know him well. He was never with his wife. He's such a flirt." Remember we told you just about a month ago that Chris and his wife announced they were splitting up after 18 years of marriage. But Vienna doesn't stop there. "I guarantee Emily and Chris will end up together in the end. If she gets engaged to another man, the show will probably spin it as a love triangle." "Star" also claims Emily and Chris backed up the romance rumors last month, when Emily Tweeted a picture of them together at the "Dancing with the Stars" finale, with the caption, "I had so much fun with @ChrisBHarrison tonight." Chris re-Tweeted it, and said, "Great night with my friend."
Ann Curry said goodbye this morning on NBC's "The Today Show" but she isn't going anywhere. She has a new contract to head a 7-person special assignment unit. We expect Savannah Gutherie will be selected for the co-host chair. But if you've wondered why Natalie Moralis has been overlooked for the co-host position, oh there's a reason. A good reason! Matt Lauer's wife Annette Roque isn't happy about the situation. She's worried that the replacement will be none other than Natalie, the woman Matt was not only accused of having an affair with, but also fathering one of her children. Natalie has been a regular fixture on the show for a few years now and it's now rumored she's threatening to quit the show if she doesn't get the job even though Savannah Guthrie is the front-runner. But that's not the only threat going around. Annette reportedly said that if Natalie gets the job, she's divorcing Matt. When she heard about Ann getting the boot, the first thing she told Matt was that she didn't want him cozying up any closer to Natalie. In fact, Annette said if he pushed show bosses to make Natalie his new co-host, their marriage is over. Annette knows Matt is the key to the "Today" franchise and his bosses will put whoever he wants in the co-host chair.
Ke$ha is infamous for saying and doing stupid things. But here's her latest stunt: Ke$ha has tattooed the words "SUCK IT!" on the inside of her bottom lip. For what it's worth, this isn't super permanent ink. Lip tattoos fade fairly quickly, so if she doesn't get it touched up, this one could be gone by her next dentist appointment.
Congratulations to Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer. They're expecting not one, but two babies! The celebrity twin pregnancy trend continues! There's no word on the sex of the babies yet. Stephen already has a 10-year-old daughter and a 12-year-old son from a previous relationship.

Delicious coffee, so good even my cat, who isn't a coffee drinker loves it! Normally she'll just take a sniff of our coffee, and will look at us like we are crazy. However, this time, I had my Columbian coffee sitting on my desk, she took a sniff, and this time took a drink. Not only did she get one, but ten minutes later, she came back for yet another drink! Heck I like Peet's so much I finished it off before she could, but we now have to hide the debit card from her, because we think she'd buy more coffee then us. By the way we love all the coffee's!

No frills coffee that tastes like coffee. No hints of this or that. Just a perfectly robust earthy cup of coffee.
- Jp 11/13/12
Wish they sold this one whole bean nearby, all my local stores only have it ground. It's amazing and the closest thing i've tasted to Panama Coffee, and that's saying something, because it's nothing like it. You guy's skipped a country from Colombia to Costa Rica. Yet, I must admit, this particular coffee got me hooked on Peet''s and none other can now satisfy my crave. PS: Consider Panama for future coffee.

THIS was the coffee that turned me on to coffee! I'd always drunk coffee. But it was Peet's Colombia that a coworker brought to me in a resealable plastic bag to sample. Just the first smell of it captured me. I brewed it at home and ever since, my wife and I have always recommend this as THE quintessential, balanced, and aromatic coffee ever!
- Carl , drinking Peet's since 2010 9/18/11
- Haines City, FL
We used to drink Yuban but a couple of years ago it changed and we didn't like it anymore. I saw Peets Colombia in a grocery store and gave it a try and we're sure glad we did. We've been getting 5 lbs a month from Peets ever since. I admit I don't know a lot about coffee, what I do know is I can't stand many coffees that others must like. I like Peets Columbia and I liked the Holiday blend last year.
- Steve , drinking Peet's since 2010 8/13/11
Yes full-bodied and balanced but not "sweet" at all. Aroma so-so, overall taste so-so, nothing unique. Perhaps it's because my sample comes from the ground bag version which may not be so fresh, not the whole beans? I compared this grocery store's bulk, medium-roasted, whole-bean Colombian to Peet's and the store's was better, sweeter taste, nutty aroma and it was fresher. Peet's Colombian ground version is so-so, not up to what I've found from other Peet's varieties.

This has always been one of my favorites. People often think that coffee from Colombia is "ordinary" or even "boring," but I think that's because they haven''t tasted Peet's Colombia. It's very rich and full-bodied, with a nice spark of liveliness, one of the most satifying cups of coffee I've ever had.

I love this coffee! It has a lovely medium sweet body and a gentle smooth finish. This coffee is great for someone that is looking for a change from the House Blend or is transitioning from other coffee roaster - as this has a wonderful balanced coffee flavor and is not as bold as some of our other coffees! Yummy, sweet, delicious breakfast coffee!
- Sooz 7/29/09

This coffee has always been one of my favorites and I recommend it often to customers. It's warm and inviting and has a wonderfully balanced mix of flavors and sensations: sweet acidity, creamy nutty body, soft finish. At the same time, it's also really full and hearty, too. A great coffee for people who've stepped up to Blend 101. This is such a "sleeper" coffee: one of the best secrets on our menu!

I would consider Colombia to be a more traditional flavor. It is well rounded, almost sweet with a balanced acidity. I think what makes it stand out above other Colombian coffees is the high quality of beans that are used and Peet's unique roasting style. Together these make a most satisfying cup of coffee.

SPRINGFIELD (WIFR) -- Illinois lawmakers will soon debate a plan that changes where we vote.
Several police agencies with Comptroller Judy Barr Topinka want to eliminate schools from the list of election polling places. They feel it's too big of a risk having strangers wandering the halls where children are present.

Mario Sports Mix (Wii) - 2 reviews
Nintendo Wii
Mario already did a lot of sports, and he's rather good at them. Now he tries four new ones – dodgeball, basketball, hockey and volleyball.
This has the same setup as some of the prior Mario sports games such as Mario Tennis, but is incomparable to the others in terms of its depth and level of difficulty. However, the games here are still tolerable and still quite enjoyable to play. The game offers you a choice to play either in an exhibition or tournament mode, and modes are further split to three cups – Mushroom, Flower, and Star, each of which has three matches to play. All of these modes can be played either alone or with a friend or two, which rather is one of the facts that make it enjoyable to play. If you play it alone, you will fight with the game's AI, choosing between different characters with different abilities in terms of speed, power, and overall ability. If you play it with friends, you can have different characters, of course.
The dodgeball is played by dodging balls from your opponents to hit them back, once the ball hits them, it will either reduce their life bar or completely knock them out. This is a team play, and the goal is to win two sets to complete a complete match. The only problem in this game is the fact that there is only one ball, and it does not automatically switch the ball to the next team whose turn it is.
I didn't like volleyball that much. It is just the typical volleyball game without any unusual challenge or variety offered. But don't worry, everything is functional here.
There is ice and tarmac hockey which is rather more physical than just sporty, cause they made fighting and violence legal according to the rules. I personally didn't get amused much by it, as I had to make extra movements to either attack or avoid getting hurt.
Of all the four games, Square Enix almost perfected basketball, maybe because they already got Mario Hoops 3-on-3 before. This mode is really awesome and incredible with all the moves you can execute – the dunks, layups, three-pointers, and alley-oops. Definitely an amazing game addition.
This game boasts simple controls for all sports, but don't worry as they did not forgot that they're playing with Mario – you wouldn't miss the stars, shells, and even the jumping to hit a ? block to either get a coin, point, or Mario's beloved fireball. The only thing I did not like at all is the fact that I had to finish each game to unlock more. But well, it's part of the game.
Mario Sports Mix is best played with friends and family, and it is definitely recommended for everyone to try, especially if you still can't get over Mario and his Mushroom Kingdom. Don't expect too much though, and just enjoy the game while it lasts.

After chasing mushrooms and dodging fireballs, Mario decided to take a short break from his tedious tasks and went to try his hand in athletics. It should have been exciting to have Mario hook into sports if it weren't for the fact that it wasn't what one would have expected. Though it is not the first time that our Mario has dallied with sports, however one can say that it isn't one of his best efforts and he could've done much better.
Mario's latest athletic venture known as Mario Sports Mix fell short on anyone's expectations. Though the compilation consists of four sports which include Basketball, Hockey, Volleyball and Dodge ball, the mechanics of the game are so utterly simple and predictable that after a few rounds, it gets tediously boring. Though there are a few surprises at each turn that raises the degree of excitement for a while, however it still fell short on what fun you would have expect from any Mario games.
Among the four compilations, Basketball is considered to be the most appealing play offered in Mario Sports Mix. Not only was it simplified that most of the rules have been nullified but you can focus on the game without worrying too much about fouls and penalties. However, if you're playing you should notice that the play mainly focuses on the defensive side. Blocking a throw is way too easy and playing the offense is like a gamble especially since it takes a long time for the offensive player to pass a throw. However, if your opponent has fallen asleep because of the tediousness of the game, you can sure pass or complete a throw but then the pace of the game is so dragging that it is way too easy to catch up with the leading team. But despite that, it sure has its fun moments especially if you are able to dunk or shoot a three points at the last second under your friend's nose.
Hockey is the next best feature but then if you enjoyed passing goalies at random, then this is the game for you. Everything depends on the game of chance. Sometimes, the computer will let you goal even at the weakest shot but it will also block your goals at the most inopportune times. One sure way to be able to score a point though is that if you're in offense you should vie for the best position to make the goal however if you're in defense, the best way is to be way quicker than your opponent and impede their shots.
Volleyball, on the other hand is same like the real thing though it doesn't ensure that it is way more fun. A large circle depicts where to stand. You will then dab the ball to your teammate, wait for its volley and spike it back again to the opposing end. And so it goes on and on. A continuous repetition of volleys and spikes.
Lastly, we have dodge ball. Though its pace is way much faster than that of volleyball, however once you get the hang of the game, the excitement will just become anticlimactic. The goal of dodge ball is to hit your opponent with the ball and that's it. However, one way to avoid being hit is to catch the ball and the faster you are and more alert you'll become, there is no way that the ball is going to hit you. However, once you catch the ball you'll just become the offensive player and will be the one to throw the ball. The key in this game is to learn how to catch the ball and after that everything just seems to become another repetition of throwing and catching thereby making the game a total bore.
Though the game Mario Sports Mix is not outright bad because it has its moments of fun, in the long run, the utter predictability and dullness of the game takes away most of the excitement. Compared to the previous versions of Mario games, this compilation really fell short as to what is expected. It is nice to offer a variety of Mario games but it should've been better than this.

Farmers' Market Shopping Tips: What To Buy In Your Area This Season
This season, make a date to visit one — or several — of the country's most vibrant farmers' markets. The farm-fresh produce, artisanal specialties and community pride bursting from these local gems make them uniquely road-trip worthy.
Don't know where to start? Use our regional market-shopping guide to discover what's ripe for picking in your neck of the woods and around the country. Then, plan your trip and get creative with your fresh produce finds.
From Idaho potatoes to Wisconsin cheeses to New York apples, this regional shopping guide will help you make the most of your visit.
Pacific Northwest
This fertile region, encompassing the states of Washington, Oregon and Idaho, is vast and varied. In coastal areas the climate is rainy and mild for most of the year; west of the Cascade Mountains, however, the growing season is short, dry and windy. All the same, plenty of produce thrives here. Regional specialties: Fish and shellfish; hazelnuts from Oregon; and Idaho potatoes, which will hit their peak in September and October.
From surfers to wine aficionados, Californians are as diverse as their state. And this single state represents a massive growing region with distinctly different climates. In the southern and central parts, the growing season lasts all year long. Northern California, however, has more in common with the Pacific Northwest. Frosts are rare here, and every part of the state produces an abundance of food. Regional specialties: California is also known, of course, for its citrus fruits, and for the world-class wineries in Napa Valley and Sonoma County.
Much of this region, which includes Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, Utah, and Colorado, is defined by hot, dry desert conditions. Although growing is done year-round, there's a greater abundance of produce harvested in the spring and early summer months than in the hottest part of the year. Regional specialties: No visit to this region is complete without indulging in Tex-Mex fare, including tamales, fresh chorizo, and chiles prepared in every imaginable way.
The sprawling stretch of Montana, Wyoming, North and South Dakota, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Kansas and Iowa make up this varied region. The climate is diverse, featuring high elevation areas with cold winters and short summers, and lower-lying ones with more moderate temperatures and longer growing seasons. Regional specialties: The prairie states are known for their beef and pork production, and some of the country's finest meats come from here. Grains -- wheat, soybeans and corn in particular -- are mainstays, too.
Great Lakes
The states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Minnesota and Ohio comprise a wide climate range. One of the coldest cities in North America, in fact, is International Falls, Minnesota. But the southern part of the region is considerably milder. The lakes add a temperate, humid influence on much of this part of the country, bringing snowy winters and warm, wet summers. Regional specialties: This is dairy country, and no visit to Wisconsin would be complete without a good cheese sampler. Another specialty item to look for in the lake states is wild rice, which is traditionally harvested by hand from canoes.
New England
Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Connecticut: home of baseball fans and seafood lovers. This part of the country enjoys four distinct seasons, although summertime is hotter along the coast than inland and at higher elevation. The summer harvest is typically bountiful, except in the coldest areas where the last frost can arrive as late as early June. Regional specialties: Fish and seafood are major New England industries. Don't leave the coast of Maine without enjoying a lobster roll, or Boston without a bowl of chowder.
With the Atlantic Ocean to the east and mountains to the west, the states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia enjoy a fairly moderate climate with hot, humid summers, especially along the coast. The southernmost states have exceptionally long growing seasons -- good news for locavores! Regional specialties: Maryland blue crabs, Pennsylvania Dutch shoofly pie and, come September, one of New York's most important contributions to the culinary landscape: apples.
The eastern portion of the southern United States includes the states of Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Missouri, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Florida. The upper part of the region is defined by four distinct, if moderate, seasons, while the lower South enjoys long, hot summers and mild to barely perceptible winters. Regional specialties: Southern delicacies could (and have) filled many books, from Louisiana gulf shrimp to Kentucky bourbon, and Virginia ham to low-country South Carolina boiled peanuts.

A storage building just behind a Beaufort County home burned to the ground Thursday afternoon.
It happened at a home just off of Terrapin Track Road in Beaufort County. Wes Williams with the Bunyan Volunteer Fire Department says they received the call around 3:30 p.m. When they arrived, the 20 x 30 foot out-building had burned to the ground. Williams says they're still unsure what caused the fire. While no people were inside at the time, there was a chicken coop attached to the side of the building. Williams says all of the chickens were saved.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

The area surrounding Alliant's San Francisco campus is a bustling hub of Bay Area attractions. Massive cruise ships occupy docks that once berthed freighters. A stroll along the namesake Herb Caen Walk skirts San Francisco Bay with flowering gardens, outdoor sculpture and conversation coves along the way. A mile's walk, past piers bustling with design firms, DNA research firms, architect's offices and other businesses brings you to the renovated Ferry Plaza which now hosts a farmer's market, coffee bars, natural and gourmet food boutiques and restaurants, and offers commuter ferry boats embarking for the East Bay.
The Ferry Plaza is the center of a transit hub that reaches out to the Greater Bay Area - an area that offers special advantages to psychology and education students who are interested in cultural diversity.

Neuromas Really Hurt
Does the bottom of your foot tingle, burn or feel numb?
If you have one or more of these symptoms you might be suffering from Morton's Neuroma:
So, what is a neuroma?
A neuroma is a thickening of nerve tissues and may occur in almost any part of the body. This thickening, or enlargement, is the result of compression and irritation of the nerve. This compression creates enlargement of the nerve, eventually leading to permanent nerve damage.
Morton's Neuroma is the most common foot neuroma. Morton's Neuroma develops between the third and fourth toes. In this area of the foot part of the lateral plantar nerve combines with part of the medial plantar nerve. Where these two nerves merge they are usually larger in diameter than those going to the other toes. Also contributing to potential problems, the nerve lies close to the surface of the skin and to an artery and vein.
As a result, even a small amount of squeezing or irritation of the nerve can lead to the development of a neuroma. Pointy-toed shoes or high-heeled shoes are typically the cause of irritation.
People with bunions, hammer toes, or flat feet are more likely to develop a neuroma.
Once the pain starts, what should I expect?
What can I do to lessen or eliminate the pain?

DuPont Pioneer Supports Iowa 4-H with Nearly $10,000 in Community Improvement 'Seed' Grants
From the Iowa 4-H Foundation

In the late 1980s, Comme des Garçons designer Michael Costiff and his wife, Gerlinde, were "London's Most Glamorous Couple"—and kept the journals to prove it. This month, Louis Vuitton maestro Kim Jones gives them their proper due by showing the world their archives. Michael & Gerlinde's World is the first book on Jones's new imprint Slow Loris Publishing.
How did it feel to go through all your archives?
Michael Costiff It was rather exhilarating, actually. It was all shoved away and I never looked at it myself aside from occasionally digging through to find a particular photo. It gave me a reason to dive back in and to realize there had actually been a point to hanging on to it all!
How did you first connect with Kim?
MC We met a few years ago out and about, and it was at a dinner party one night that I mentioned that Gerlinde and I had always kept diaries, so when he visited my a flat a few weeks later, I asked if he would like to see one. I was quite amazed by his enthusiastic reaction as he pored over each page. Of course, out came another diary, and it turned into a very late night!
What's your favorite memory from that era?
MC I'm actually quite overwhelmed seeing our diaries in book form. Each page contains a whole world of memories. The images are so strong each new page makes you seem to forget the ones before. There's a lot in it.
How's your working relationship with Rei Kawakubo?
MC I had a really hard couple of years after Gerlinde died so suddenly in '94. We had always been together, and I was very lost. It was Rei who was my savior by finding me and inviting me to have a space in her Dover Street Market shop in London and later Tokyo and Beijing. She is always very kind to me. She likes my history, my style, and most of all my taste. She pretty much encourages me to do whatever I like. It's good to be part of the Comme des Garçons family. I'm very lucky.
What was so special about Kinky Gerlinky? Were the parties really as fun as people say?
MC In all honesty, yes! Gerlinde and I never wanted to be club promoters, but a friend persuaded us to have a party night in a West End club. We had just returned from Carnival in Rio, and London seemed horribly gray by comparison. The acid house scene was just starting with dress-down raves in warehouses and we wanted somewhere we could dress up and have a laugh. Our friends told their friends and it just grew and grew, moving to bigger and bigger clubs. This was before e-mail and mobile phones, remember. We did everything from our kitchen table! We had a huge guest list, of course, and quite a strict door policy that was as much about attitude as it was about outfits. Everyone was up for doing cabarets and catwalk competitions and we really encouraged an anything-goes ethos. It was a riot.
Why aren't there more parties like that today?
MC Maybe there are! But in this digital information age, it's difficult to keep things underground for long. I still have lots of fun nights out, just a different kind of fun.

For his Life After the Apocalypse series, Russian artist Vladimir Manyuhin starts with real photographs, adding digital decay and overgrowth to create an eerily realistic sense of how the world might look long after most humans are gone.
Although Manyuhin goes for realism in his digital illustrations, he does have a bit of fun with his compositions. Maybe those lions are descendants of some Bronx Zoo refugees?

LOS ANGELES – During the Clippers' recent four-game losing streak, Coach Vinny Del Negro used words like "stagnant" to describe his team's offense.
But over the course of the team's current four-game winning streak — a streak extended with a 112-90 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday at Staples Center — the Clippers have been getting plenty of baskets the easy way — with lobs and uncontested dunks.
But to make those highlight plays, they have to get out and run, and Wednesday they did plenty of that.
The Clippers had 18 steals, led by five from Chris Paul, allowing them to get out in transition where few teams can match their athleticism.
"We want to use our athleticism and get out on the break when we can," Del Negro said. "In order to get out on the break, you have to rebound and you have to play good defense."
DeAndre Jordan, Caron Butler, Blake Griffin and Eric Bledsoe took turns shaking the rim with highlight-reel dunks.
"We just feed off each other," Paul said.
But as Del Negro stressed, those plays had to start on the defensive end, where the Clippers forced 22 turnovers by the Mavericks.
The Clippers held Dallas to 40.5 percent shooting and outrebounded them, 49-41.
"When teams miss shots, I think they get nervous," Paul said. "It means we're running at you."
The Clippers also dominated a pair of familiar faces in former Clippers Elton Brand and Chris Kaman, scoring 62 of their 112 points in the paint.

Excellent, thanks Ascension! Hardly humble! An amazing amount of work which I'm sure the community will appreciate. (I've just renamed your thread title to make it a little more self explanatory).
Hello all, annoying ole me again.
I humbly submit, for your approval, my lil tutorial for making continents in Photoshop. Granted, my style is not for everyone but to each their own. This tutorial will probably change 1 or 2 more times before the year is out but here is where my current machinations stand. I'm not completely happy with my water areas but these are the areas that will be changed in months to come so if anyone comes up with a better way then I'm all ears, er eyes I guess since I'll be reading. I'd post a preview pic but the preview for this tut is already posted over in the regional/world mapping section (Untitled continent, WIP, reply #6) and I'm pretty much a novice at forums and such so I don't know how to link to it. The tutorial I have is a word document at 3.81 megs with pics. If you all want me to post the tutorial as a step by step guide within this thread instead of downloading the file then let me know.
At any rate, give it a read and see what you think and what sort of changes or modifications you use. Cheers.
Edit: Thought I'd just put up the pic that goes with this since I don't know how to link to the thumbnail.

Excellent, thanks Ascension! Hardly humble! An amazing amount of work which I'm sure the community will appreciate. (I've just renamed your thread title to make it a little more self explanatory).
As I've mentioned in other threads, Ascension's tutorial is one of the best in this forum. It was very inspiring! Very nice techniques! And since I am the guy who can't even draw a straight line with a ruler, I find this extremely useful!
Great tutorial, I ran thru it at work and was quite pleased with the results. What I'd like to do is convert it to work in GIMP if possible, because I do not have Photshop at home (or the $$$ to buy it). However, I am not knowledgable enough in either application to convert every step in Photoshop to the appropriate step for GIMP.
I managed to kinda "fudge" my way thru the lighting effects, they are no means accurate, but I am stuck on step #42;
"Control-click on the Base layer, then Select > Inverse, then hit Delete, then Deselect."
What is the equivalent command in GIMP for the Control-Click???
Also, anybody know if there is a script and/or plugin that duplicates Photoshops gradiant editor, I find GIMPs difficult to use.
THanks in advance for your respnses/replies.

Don't know about the ctrl-click, but here is a gimp script I wrote to make a gradient from an image that I find easier to use than the native gradient editor.

That's a good question...I haven't the slightest idea. I know one of the GIMPers will know though, or at least a work-around, but I'd assume it deals with the magic wand since we're working with a selection. The control-click (on the layer palette) loads the layer as a selection so a work-around might be to click on the base layer and magic wand the area that is not white, hide the base layer and go back to the previous layer then delete.

OK, thanks guys. I'll give those a whirl when I get a chance and see what happens.

Followed all the instructions up to where I'm supposed to select land and base, PS won't let me use inverse for some reason.
Does the base layer still have a black ocean and black lakes on a white land? If it does, you need to get rid of those via an earlier step where you select the black and delete it. Also, when I say to control-click on a layer, I don't mean in the work window, I mean in the layers window/tab/whatchamacallit thingy.

The Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) is an academic competition developed by The University of Queensland (UQ), Australia for research students. Graduate students have three minutes to present a compelling oration on their thesis/dissertation and its significance. 3MT is not an exercise in trivializing or "dumbing-down" research, but challenges students to consolidate their ideas and research discoveries so they can be presented concisely to a non-specialist audience. (UAH includes PhD and DNP research in the competition.) Why Participate in 3MT? At UAH, 3MT is part of an effort to provide students with an opportunity to develop their oral communication and presentation skills. It also provides a valuable opportunity for research students to come together, get to know one another and talk about their research in a supportive environment. Prizes For each catagory (Masters and PhD/RND), First Place winners will receive $300.00 and People's Choice winner will receive $100.00. The winner in the master's category will also receive an all-expenses paid trip to San Antonio, Texas to represent UAH at the regional 3MT Competition held by the Council of Graduate Schools Deans at their annual spring meeting. This provides an excellent networking and professional development opportunity. Registration If you are interested in participating, please complete the online entry form.

Dealers – Lemon Law Required Filings and Disclosures
Companies that sell or lease new motor vehicles to consumers have certain responsibilities under the law. The definitions of 'consumer' and 'new motor vehicle,' according to O.C.G.A. Sections 10-1-782(5) and (15) of the Georgia Lemon Law, are as follows:
'Consumer' means a person who purchases or leases a new motor vehicle for personal, family, or household use and not for the purpose of selling or leasing the new motor vehicle to another person, regardless of how the documents characterize the transaction. The term shall also mean and include any entity which purchases or leases 10 or fewer new motor vehicles a year for business purposes other than limousine rental services.
'New motor vehicle' means any self-propelled vehicle primarily designed for the transportation of persons or property over the public highways that was leased, purchased, or registered in this state by the consumer or lessor to whom the original motor vehicle title was issued without previously having been issued to any person other than a new motor vehicle dealer. The term 'new motor vehicle' does not include any vehicle on which the title and other transfer documents show a used, rather than new, vehicle.
If the motor vehicle is a motor home, this article shall apply to the self-propelled vehicle and chassis, but does not include those portions of the vehicle designated, used or maintained primarily as living quarters, office, or commercial space. The term 'new motor vehicle' does not include motorcycles, golf carts, or trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating of more than 12,000 pounds. The term 'new motor vehicle' does include a demonstrator model or a lease-purchase as long as it was titled new.
Pursuant to the Georgia Lemon Law [O.C.G.A. Section 10-1-791(a)], a fee of $3.00 shall be collected by every dealer from each consumer at the completion of the sale or lease of a new motor vehicle.
The law provides that $2.00 of each fee collected shall be submitted quarterly to: OPB Lemon Law Georgia, Box 405893, Atlanta, Georgia 30384-5893. The quarters end on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. Fees are due no later than the 20th day of the month following the preceding quarter (April, July, October and January, respectively). Failure to file the collected payments timely will result in exposure to potential civil penalties.
The Georgia Lemon Law Fee Submission Form (see link below) should accompany your quarterly check. Please print the form as needed from this web site. New forms will not be mailed each quarter.
In addition, pursuant to O.C.G.A. Section 10-1-783(b), a written Statement of Consumer Rights that explains the Georgia Lemon Law Act must be given by the dealer to the consumer at the time of purchase or lease of a new motor vehicle. The Statement shall be printed in 11-point type, Arial font, on the front side of a sheet of standard, letter-sized paper, yellow in color. It is the dealer's responsibility to make copies of this Statement on yellow paper. VERY IMPORTANT: The consumer must sign and date the Statement. The dealer's representative must print his or her name, date it and give the original to the consumer. The dealer must keep a legible copy of the completed Statement at its primary place of business for at least 3 years.

Databank Backups
A databank backup is a copy of the databank file.
A databank backup is the starting point for any restore operation, and should be stored in a safe place separate from the working databank files (copied to a different disk or preferably written to backup media and removed from the machine).
The backup can be taken either by using the Mimer SQL system administration statements for online backup, see Online Backups Using the SQL Statements, or by using the host file system utilities in a system backup, see System Backups Using the Host File System.
After a backup is taken, the updates logged for the databank in question should be cleared from LOGDB. This will be done automatically when the SQL system management statements for online backup are used.
The DBC program, see Databank Check Functionality, should be executed for each databank in the backup operation in order to validate the physical consistency of the databank.
For a system backup, the backup copies of the databanks should always be taken when the system is closed and the databanks are in a logically consistent state. That is, no uncompleted transactions should exist and all databanks should be backed up at the same time to safeguard database consistency.

MOORE, Okla. — The principal's voice came on over the intercom at Plaza Towers Elementary School: A severe storm was approaching, and students were to go to the cafeteria and wait for their parents to pick them up.
But before all of the youngsters could get there, the tornado alarm sounded.
The plan changed quickly.
"All the teachers started screaming into the room and saying, 'Get into the hallway! We don't want you to die!' and stuff like that," said sixth-grader Phaedra Dunn. "We just took off running."
In the moments that followed, some of the children at Plaza Tower Elementary School would, in fact, die. At least seven were killed by the twister Monday afternoon. Others would crawl out of the rubble, bloodied and bruised, utterly terrified.
Photos: Tornado hits Oklahoma City
The tornado that smashed through this Oklahoma City suburb of 56,000 people flattened Plaza Elementary and also slammed Briarwood Elementary, where all of the children remarkably appear to have survived. Students and parents recounted stories Tuesday of brave teachers who sheltered their pupils. But there were also moments of pure panic and fear.
After the tornado alarm went off, students at Plaza Elementary scrambled to the halls. But the halls — some of which were within the view of windows — did not appear safe enough.
Sixth-grader Antonio Clark said a teacher took him and as many other youngsters as possible and shoved them into the three-stall boys' bathroom.
"We were all piled in on each other," the 12-year-old said. Another teacher wrapped her arms around two students and held Antonio's hand.
Twenty seconds later, he heard a roar that sounded like a stampede of elephants. His ears popped.
Then it all stopped almost as suddenly as it started. Crouched down, his backpack over his head, Antonio looked up. The skylight and the ceiling that had been there just moments before were gone, and he was staring up into a cloud of debris.
Antonio and a friend were among the first to stand up. They climbed over debris where their classroom had been just moments earlier. Students and teachers were struggling to free themselves from under the bricks, wooden beams and insulation. Some people had bleeding head wounds; blood covered one side of someone's eyeglasses.
"Everybody was crying," Antonio said. "I was crying because I didn't know if my family was OK."
Then Antonio saw his father ride up on a mountain bike, yelling his son's name.
Phaedra's mother rushed to the school just moments before the tornado hit, covered Phaedra's head with a blanket to protect her from hail and ushered her out the door. Phaedra's 10-year-old sister, Jenna, didn't want to budge from the school.
The principal "grabbed her backpack, put it over her head and literally said, 'You're mom's going to open the door. Get out. You're safer with your mom,' and pushed her out the door," said Amy Sharp, the girls' mother.
At Briarwood Elementary, the students also went into the halls. But a third-grade teacher didn't think it looked safe, so she ushered some of the children into a closet, said David Wheeler, one of the fathers who tried to rush to the school after the tornado hit.
The teacher shielded Wheeler's 8-year-old son, Gabriel, with her arms and held him down as the tornado collapsed the school roof and starting lifting students upward with a pull so strong that it sucked glasses off kids' faces, Wheeler said.
"She saved their lives by putting them in a closet and holding their heads down," Wheeler said.
Gabriel and the teacher — whom Wheeler identified as Julie Simon — had to dig their way out of the rubble. The boy's back was cut and bruised and gravel was embedded in his head, Wheeler said. It took nearly three hours for father and son to be reunited.
Other parents waited even longer, as they drove from one emergency shelter to another in search of their children.
At St. Andrews United Methodist Church, 15-year-old Caitlin Ulrey waited about seven hours before her parents found her. Her high school had not been hit by the tornado. But her nerves were frayed.
"I was starting to panic and shake and have an anxiety attack," Caitlin said.
At Plaza Towers, several students were pulled alive from under a collapsed wall and other heaps of mangled debris. Rescue workers passed the survivors down a human chain of parents and neighborhood volunteers. Parents carried dazed and terrified children in their arms to a triage center in the parking lot.
Hundreds of Oklahoma schools have reinforced tornado shelters, but not the two that were hit on Monday.
Albert Ashwood, director of the Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management, said it is up to each jurisdiction to set priorities for which schools get funding for safe rooms. But he said a shelter would not necessarily have saved more lives at Plaza Towers. The tornado was an EF-5 twister, the most powerful type, with winds of at least 200 mph.
"When you talk about any kind of safety measures, ... it's a mitigating measure; it's not an absolute," Ashwood said. "There's not a guarantee that everyone will be totally safe."
Moore School Superintendent Susan Pierce said teachers and administrators put their well-rehearsed crisis plan into action as the tornado approached. But she suggested there are limits to what people can do in the face of such a powerful storm.
"Safety is our main priority," she said. "We monitored the weather throughout the day, and when it was time to shelter, we did just that."
Associated Press writer Ramit Plushnik Masti contributed to this report.
How to aid charities; how to avoid scams
1. Research the organization online by contacting the state Attorney General or the National Association of State Charity Officials, or NASCO, to find out whether an organization is registered. Watchdog sites guide star.org and charitynaviga tor.org can be used for conducting additional research, as well as whois.com/whois that lists websites by their domain and registration date. If a charity was registered recently, it's more likely to be a scam.
2. Don't trust viral stories from supposed victims. Many of these stories prove false but harmless, while others include a PayPal link for donations. Don't give money to someone online who claims to be a victim unless there is a personal connection and claims can be verified.
3. Don't give in to the pressure to donate, for a legitimate charity will never pressure anyone. Call the organization that the caller claims to represent and report the incident. Violent threats or continued harassment should be reported to local law enforcement.
4. Stop to remember past donations. Charity scammers often try to build trust with their victims by calling, e-mailing or sending mailers that thank the victim for making a past donation. Think about any past donations. A legitimate charity can provide the date and any other verifying information regarding their charity. If the caller cannot do this, it's a red flag. Donors should always keep their own receipts or other records of donations for this purpose.
5. Watch out for unsolicited text messages because although many legitimate charities can receive donations via text message, it is highly unlikely that they will send out a text without prior notification. Trust instincts, and find other ways to donate.

Comments On Mar 26, 2015:I have a 1981 Honda XL185 that had been ridden HARD! It had a shredded chain guides that left bits of metal all over the interior of the motor and had clearly been super hot.
Not surprisingly, I was worried the bearings would be welded to the crank. So, I put the crankshaft in the freezer for a couple hours. When I pulled it out I used a hand torch to heat the bearings on it. From there I just installed the bearing puller, during the install the tool already began to move the bearing.
From there, the tool worked flawlessly and got the bearings off without any damage to the crank!

Vol State Receives Highway Safety Grant
Submitted on September 28, 2010 at 9:27 AM
Volunteer State Community College has been awarded a $5,000 grant from the Tennessee Department of Transportation, Governor's Highway Safety Office. The funding will be used by Vol State campus police to plan and implement multiple accident prevention projects in Sumner County. The goal is to reduce impaired driving, increase seatbelt use, and to promote highway safety throughout the community. The project will be supported through relationships with the Sumner County Anti-Drug Coalition (SCADC) and Community Anti-Drug Coalitions Across Tennessee (CADCAT). Vol State has worked closely with the organizations for the past two years in the development and implementation of student and community awareness campaigns. CADCAT has been awarded a grant from the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools, to expand the development of campus and community partnerships across the state.

The bridge to Emerald Isle is now open. Town officials say people with re-entry permits started crossing the bridge 9 a.m. Sunday. Emerald isle will re-open to everyone at 1 p.m. You will not need a re-entry permit at that time.
The Atlantic Beach bridge is not open right now, so the only way to get to Emerald Isle at this time is the Emerald Isle bridge.
Power has been restored to most homes in Emerald Isle that are served by the main transmission line that crosses the bridge. These homes are generally in western area of town. Crews are working hard to restore power to the homes served by the main transmission line that comes into Emerald Isle from the east along Bogue Banks.
Beach erosion was not catastrophic but there was dune erosion along most of Bogue Banks.
