Chuck Reedy and the Goose Creek coaching staff says all the right stuff about Ashley Ridge:
That the Foxes will play hard.
That they will put up a tough fight.
That the Foxes have a chance to win on Friday night when the Gators roll into The Swamp, winners of 40 of their last 42 games.
History suggests the Foxes really have no chance to win at all. In the only three meetings between the two schools, Goose Creek has outscored Ashley Ridge 169-22, including last season's 48-16 romp at John Fulmer Field.
A year ago, the Gators raced to a 34-0 lead 14 minutes in and coasted. The two games prior were also walks in the park for Goose Creek, 65-3 and 56-3.
"Offensively, this is the best preseason we've had since I've been here," Reedy said. "Defensively, we're still getting everything sorted out. I think it's a group that will get better as the season goes on."
The game will be at Ashley Ridge, which generally has a lot of energy in the stadium because of a very supportive student section. Gators defensive coordinator Chris Candor figures the Foxes feel they can move the ball better in this matchup because of Goose Creek's loss of three Division I players on his side of the ball.
"They try to spread you out and get you in a position where you've got to tackle in space and that's been a point of concern for us," Candor said. "We have been inconsistent (over the summer). They did lose some of their key guys, like Romeo Doctor, but it looks like they have some capable replacements."
Stopping the Gators is a different matter, though. Georgia Tech commitment Caleb Kinlaw is back for Goose Creek and junior quarterback Dantez Bennamon is another shifty weapon. And also Sertoma seems to show Deondre Daniels can be a playmaker at Tramel Terry's old spot.
Last season, Kinlaw rushed for 128 yards and scored three times against Ashley Ridge.
Doctor, an eventual Shrine Bowl selection, did most of the damage for the Foxes, rushing for 140 yards.
"I think right now our confidence level is high and we expect to win (when we play)," Reedy said. "A lot of guys that will line up against Ashley Ridge have never lost a football game as varsity players."

When Dillon native Ellis Colvin graduates today from Charleston School of Law, he will fulfill a dream he's had since his mother served on a federal grand jury in Charleston when he was 5 years old.
"Back in that era, 'Perry Mason' was on TV midday," said Colvin, 52. "I related what she was doing with what was on TV and it stuck with me. I always knew I wanted to be a lawyer."
When he graduated from Wofford College in 1983, "I was not in any position to go to law school," said Colvin, who comes from a family of 10 children. "The biggest thing for me at that time was to be the first person in my family to graduate from college."
He spent the next 21 years in the Army, working in intelligence and financial management and earning two master's degrees while continuing to dream about law school.
Colvin and his wife, Cynthia, married in 1995 and waited 11 years to have children.
"Once you have children, you've got to get them to a point of viability so that they can function on their own," he said. Daughter Caroline is now 16, and son Ellis is 12.
In 2003, he was ready to retire from the Army but was delayed a year because of war.
"When I finally got out of the service, my first instinct was not to do what was my passion, which was to go to law school, but to do what pays the bills," he said. That was a job with the federal government.
During a 2008 visit to Dillon, one of his sisters asked if he had given up on law school.
"That's when it really hit me," he said. "I decided, OK, I'm going to do this thing. If it's ever going to happen, it needs to happen now."
First, he earned a third graduate degree, then he took the Law School Admission Test and applied to 32 law schools.
"I knew most schools were not going to extend an offer to an almost 50-year-old person," he said. "Why should they let me take a seat from someone just starting out?"
John S. Benfield, associate dean for admissions at the Charleston School of Law, said it would have been hard to turn down Colvin.
"His maturity, leadership and skill set were worth a whole lot, and what he brings to a class is just hard to capture in a lot of applicants," he said. "He's got maturity and leadership and is a great all-around guy."
Colvin deferred admission for a year, and during that time the Post-911 GI Bill went into effect. It paid for his education.
In 2010, with his family relocated to Daniel Island, Colvin finally entered law school.
"My first year, I was worried. Does the 50-year-old mind work the same as a 22-year-old's mind? Law school is all technology-based and I didn't type. I wrote on a legal pad. While others did their exams online, I wrote mine in blue books."
There were also advantages.
"When we would talk about things like race issues, affirmative action, Brown vs. Board of Education, I lived this experience. I remember them and what it was like then."
Colvin excelled in his classes and was awarded two CALI Excellence for the Future Awards, given to the highest scoring student in each class.
"You can't attend the Charleston School of Law and not know Ellis," said school Dean Andy Abrams. "He is involved in everything and he's got such an enthusiasm and infectious spirit. He really exemplifies what we are all about."
Colvin, who plans to return to the Washington area after graduation, is not the oldest student graduating today — he said there is a woman a few years older — but he believes, according to the American Bar Association, he may be the oldest African-American man in the United States to graduate from law school.
He'd encourage others to follow his footsteps.
"My advice to people who have a dream is don't wait. Don't procrastinate. Just do it. Don't give yourself an excuse."

Ellis Colvin used a detailed plan written on a large poster-board as a guide to complete his dream of earning a law degree.×

on March 25, 2013 - 11:57 PM
DUNEDIN, Fla. — Another big group of players were sent back to minor-league camp for the Buffalo Bisons today by the Toronto Blue Jays, and the headliner is fleet outfielder Anthony Gose.
Gose, 22, should be Buffalo's starting center fielder. He hit .267 in spring training with a homer, three RBIs and five stolen bases. His red flag is 16 strikeouts but he also drew 11 walks.
"He's got a chance to be really good," said Jays manager John Gibbons. "He just has to get his swing together, cut down on his strikeouts. That will be big for him. Defensively and on the bases, he's pretty dog-gone good right now. He's a 22-year-old kid probably where he needs to be. When he irons that bat out, who knows how good he can be?"
Gose hit .285-5-43 with 34 stolen bases last year in Las Vegas. He struggled in Toronto after Jose Bautista's season-ending injury (.223-1-11 with 15 steals in 56 games).
Also sent back to Buffalo were catcher Josh Thole, starting pitcher Dave Bush and reliever Brad Lincoln, a former No. 1 pick of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Bush, 33, was originally drafted by the Jays in 2002 and has played 210 big-league games for three teams, twice winning 12 games for Milwaukee.
Thole, who has played parts of the last three years in Buffalo in the Mets chain, hit just .171 this spring and couldn't earn a spot on the basis of being R.A. Dickey's personal catcher. Gibbons said J.P. Arencibia did it well enough in the World Baseball Classic and that ex-Met Henry Blanco will be the backup.

Mapping Areas Potentially Impacted by Sea Level Rise
The science surrounding global and regional projections of future sea level has grown rapidly in recent years, and depicts a worsening prospect of substantial amounts of sea level rise over this and following centuries. As a result, assessing and anticipating potential sea level rise impacts to coastal areas is now of increased importance.
Analysis of elevation data in the context of projected sea level rise serves as one of the fundamental components needed to fully identify low-lying coastal areas that may confront impacts such as accretion and erosion, temporary flooding, and permanent inundation. Our work has centered on the analysis of digital elevation models (DEMs) to help delineate low-elevation coastal areas.
We provide results from our elevation data analyses through the Web map visualization tools below. Analyses based on DEMs with a horizontal resolution of 1 km give an overview of low-lying coastal areas at regional scales. Analyses stemming from DEMs with a horizontal resolution of 30 m allow for viewing at more local scales.

The act of continuing to date a girl you want to break up with while you start dating a new girl. It usually occurs because you either don't't know how to break up with your girlfriend, or because you want insurance in case the new girlfriend doesn't work out. The period of overlap is like the way shingles overlap on a roof.
John's was shingling with Alice until he finds a way to break up with Mary.

New York's Cy Conard Wins 2012 Merle Howard Award
New York's Cy Conard Wins 2012 Merle Howard Award
A three-time showmanship winner at World Dairy Expo and this year's World Dairy Expo fitting contest winner, Cy Conard has won the 2012 Merle Howard Award. The son of Wayne and Jen Conard of Sharon Springs, N.Y. Conard is the ninth person to receive this honor. The Merle Howard Award is presented to the top junior exhibitor at World Dairy Expo who demonstrates exemplary skills in fitting, showmanship, and overall passion for the dairy industry.
This 17-year-old is a critical member of the family's Ridgedale farm team and is involved in all phases of the operation, especially with cattle showing and fitting, livestock marketing and the cropping enterprise. Conard also stepped up in numerous ways to help with three sales held on the family farm within the past eight years.
Within his state, Conard captured Master Showman honors at the 2012 New York State Fair. At that same show, he exhibited the Grand Champion Red and White and the first place four year old. Later this summer, he won the four year old and aged cow classes at the junior show at the All-American Dairy Show in Harrisburg, Pa., plus he collected Reserve Senior Champion honors in the Red and White open division. He also exhibited a four year old cow in Tuesday's International Junior Holstein Show and a pair of cows at Friday's Grand International Red and White Show. All three individuals stood in the top-half of their classes.
Respected by his peers, Conard has agreed to serve on the 2013 selection committee for the judge of the Junior Holstein Show at World Dairy Expo. He also has agreed to serve on the 2013 Red and White Dairy Cattle Association Junior Activities Committee. He is a past New York Holstein Association Distinguished Junior Member finalist. And he is a graduate of Cornell's Junior Dairy Leader Program.
Above all, this young man is a hard worker, who fits and prepares his own animals for the show each year. Conard is currently a senior at Canajoharie High School and enrolled in the Environmental Conservation Program. Conard also has one brother, Isaac.
Previous award winners of the Merle Howard Award include: 2004, Robert Teixeira, Turlock, Calif.; 2005, Matthew Mitchell, Lafollette, Tenn.; 2006, Greta Koebel, Three Oaks, Mich.; 2007, Brandon Ferry, Hilbert, Wis.; and 2008, Kelly Lee, Johnson Creek, Wis.; 2009 Kyle Natzke, Fond du Lac, Wis.; 2010 Stephanie Aves, Popular Grove, Ill.; and 2011 Karen Anderson, Lester Prairie, Minn.
Merle Howard was a respected dairy industry pioneer. Winner of the 1954 Klussendorf Award, Howard was a herd manager, Holstein classifier and later a sales and export businessman. Serving on the first National Dairy Shrine Board, he became one of only eight people to receive the 4-E Award for outstanding service.

Hi everyone! My name is Gru! Looking for a new friend? Then give me a hug and let's snuggle awhile, then play, then snuggle. I'll be your best friend so come check me out today!
My name is Sissy. My elderly owners are no longer able to care for me so I need to find a new home. If I seem a little overwhelmed and stressed, it must be because I am six years old, have only known one home, and now have to find another one. In my humble opinion, I was a wonderful companion who hardly ever barked and I do not understand why I was brought to the shelter. But I will adapt just fine to a new family and will give them lots of love. I am very good with children and with other dogs, probably with cats as well although I need to meet a few just to see. Come and visit me at the shelter. Sissy weighs 37 pounds.
The Frances R. Willis SPCA is open Mon, Tue, Thurs 12-5 and
Fri-Sun 10-5. We are closed on Wednesdays. You can view all of the adoptable pets online at www.summervillespca.org. We are always looking for foster homes for our animals and we greatly appreciate any and all donations. Feel free to call the shelter with any questions at 843-871-3820. Our mailing address is PO Box 1116 Summerville, SC 29484 and our physical address is 136 Four Paws Lane Summerville, SC.

Celebrity Central / Top 25 Celebs
Cate Blanchett
- late 1970s
An Early Loss
At 10, Blanchett loses her father, Robert, who dies of a heart attack. Her mother June raises her and her two siblings in Melbourne, Australia. "I do feel that loss," Blanchett tells the Sydney Morning Herald in 1994. "I have always believed there isn't enough time."
- 1992
Cate the Great
Blanchett studies at the National Institute of Dramatic Art and Sydney Theatre Company (pictured with costar Aden Young). She appears in many stage productions, including Oleanna with Geoffrey Rush. "There was a buzz about Cate even when she was in drama school," Rush tells the Los Angeles Times in 1998. "There was always just something special about Cate, an excitement, an aura."
- 1997
Beyond Theatre
Blanchett jumps to film as a sympathetic nurse in Paradise Road with Frances McDormand (right). She also lands her first major role opposite Ralph Fiennes in Gillian Armstrong's Oscar and Lucinda. The film's trailer, which features Blanchett as a 19th century gambling heiress, grabs the attention of director Shekhar Kapur, who fights to cast the unknown actress in his Queen Elizabeth I biopic.
Wedding Plus Babies
Blanchett marries screenwriter Andrew Upton, whom she met through friends. In December 2001, they welcome their first child, Dashiell (left). "It's sort of nice, because having a child is the most unpredictable thing you can do – apart from getting married, that is," she tells the Los Angeles Times. "It's a sort of hopeful insanity." They welcome Roman in 2004 and Ignatius in 2008.
- 1998
A Crowning Achievement
Blanchett plays the title role in Kapur's biopic Elizabeth, with Geoffrey Rush and Joseph Fiennes. Variety says of Blanchett's performance as Elizabeth I, "Alternately gaunt and angular and ethereally beautiful, Blanchett conveys [Elizabeth] with grace, poise and intelligence...The Australian actress builds the juicy character almost imperceptibly…" Blanchett earns a Golden Globe for Best Actress and a Best Actress Oscar nomination. In 2007, she reprises her role for The Golden Age, with Clive Owen and Rush.
- 1999
Steadily Supporting
Blanchett follows up Elizabeth with a string of eclectic supporting roles: she perfects a Long Island accent for Pushing Tin and plays Matt Damon's love interest in The Talented Mr. Ripley (left). But the star treatment on set is new to the in-demand actress. "Now when a contract is negotiated, they say, 'What do you want in your trailer?'" she tells New York's Daily News, and "all I can think of is water and Diet Coke."
Fashionably Beautiful
Although Blanchett doesn't win the Best Actress Oscar at the 71st Annual Academy Awards, she does win the style award for wearing a John Galliano dress with hummingbird and flower embroidery. The knit dress (right), which is knocked-off and goes on sale shortly thereafter, begins her reign as a fashion risk-taker. That same year, she is named one of PEOPLE's 50 Most Beautiful. "There are times when I've looked at Cate and I go, 'My God, you're beautiful!' It just suddenly hits you," costar Geoffrey Rush tells PEOPLE.
- 2001
Queen of the Rings
Blanchett dons prosthetic ears to play Galadriel, the elf queen, in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring with Orlando Bloom and Liv Tyler. "I did [the role] for my husband; he's obsessed by my ears," she tells the AP. The film grosses more than $313 million in the U.S. Blanchett reprises her role for 2002's The Two Towers and 2003's The Return of the King.
- 2001-2003
Playing the Heroine
Blanchett takes on some mighty hefty real-life heroes from Gillian Armstrong's Charlotte Gray to a slain Irish journalist in Joel Schumacher's Veronica Guerin (right). "I'm very pleased being Veronica," she tells WWD. "She had integrity, bravery in her writing – but she was also voted the best legs in Ireland!"
- 2004
First Oscar Win
In Martin Scorsese's The Aviator, Blanchett portrays Hollywood icon Katharine Hepburn opposite Leonardo DiCaprio's Howard Hughes. When she wins the Best Supporting Actress Oscar, Blanchett becomes the first performer to win an Oscar for playing an Oscar winner. "Thank you, of course, to Miss Hepburn. The longevity of her career I think is inspiring to everyone," Blanchett says during her Oscar acceptance speech. Then, she adds thanks to Scorsese, saying, "I hope my son will marry your daughter."

COLUMBUS, Ohio - The same type of ballots that held up the 2004 presidential results are in play again. A repeat could be in the offing Tuesday if the contest hinges on Ohio and the margin of victory is slim.
In a tight race, the ballots cast when voters don't bring the proper ID to the polls, among other reasons, become crucial to the outcome.
By law, these so-called provisional ballots can't be counted for at least 10 days after the election - Nov. 17, this year - to give Ohio officials time to verify a voter's eligibility.
Recall the drawn out disputes in the presidential contest eight years ago between President George W. Bush and Democrat John Kerry.
The number of provisional ballots cast then was larger than Bush's margin of victory over Kerry - about 119,000. Kerry didn't concede until the next morning. A recount initiated and paid for by third-party candidates took weeks but didn't change the outcome.
With 18 electoral votes, Ohio again is at the center of both candidates' campaign strategies.
And the close race between President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney has some concerned a conclusion could take days.
Some elections officials fear more Ohioans will be required to vote a provisional ballot this year after Secretary of State Jon Husted sent absentee ballot applications to about 6.9 million residents. Those who request the mail-in ballots but decide to vote in person on Election Day will have to vote a provisional ballot.
About 370,000 mail-in ballots - roughly 28 percent of the 1.3 million requested - had not been returned as of last Friday, according to Husted's office. That number is expected to decline as the election nears.
Husted says he can't predict how many provisional ballots will be cast this year. But he has told reporters he expects the state will be able to declare a winner.
"I just believe that we'll have the information necessary on election night to have a degree of confidence as to who won Ohio," Husted said Thursday.
Ohio had a provisional voting system in place before a 2002 federal law required states to have them.
Ohioans cast about 206,000 provisional ballots in the 2008 presidential election - second only to California.
Husted's office estimates that 130,000 of those ballots were cast because voters didn't update their address.
Husted, a Republican, has tried to curb the number cast this year by allowing registered voters to update their addresses online.
How certain provisional ballots get counted in Ohio has been part of an ongoing legal dispute.
But on Wednesday, a federal appeals court put on hold a lower court's order that would have required the state to count ballots cast not just in the wrong precinct but in the wrong polling location altogether.

TAHOE/TRUCKEE - Three decades of research have identified social skills as essential for academic success. These skills include: getting along with others (parents, teachers and peers), following directions, identifying and regulating emotions and behavior, thinking of appropriate solutions to conflict and persisting on task.
Development of these skills begins at birth when infants experience positive, ongoing relationships with familiar nurturing adults and continues through infancy and toddlerhood into early childhood education settings.
In the past year, Tahoe Truckee Unified School District, with funding support from Nevada County Behavioral Health, has been introducing Second Step to community Early Learning Programs as well as providing a new kindergarten through fifth-grade curriculum to elementary classrooms.
Second Step for Early Learning is a classroom-based program designed to increase children's school readiness and social success by building social-emotional competence and self-regulation skills.
In a national study of what kindergarten teachers viewed as essential or very important school readiness skills, less than a third named specific academic skills, such as knowing the names of colors and shapes, counting to 20, or recognizing letters, as compared to more than 75 percent who highlighted skills such as being able to follow directions, not be disruptive, and communicate both needs and thoughts.
Second Step Early Learning curriculum begins with Skills for Learning and a focus on four self-regulations skills - listening, focusing attention, self-talk and being assertive.
Through engaging daily activities including interactive story cards, puppets, storybooks, games, and music, a foundation is created to support the building blocks of the curriculum: empathy; emotion management; friendship skills; problem solving; and transitioning to kindergarten.
Familiarity in preschool with concepts and language of Second Step helps children make a smooth transition into the kindergarten environment and on through Grade 5.
In preschool, your child will learn many types of skills: practicing separating from you at drop off time; adjusting to new situations; making friends; listening to others; and forming first friendships. All of these skills develop with time, patience and practice.
Reading books together in which the characters are going through the same thing can help your preschooler develop these important skills. In addition to building social skills, reading books is one of the best ways to help your child love books and reading, keys to your child's success in school.
It builds knowledge and vocabulary and helps your child ask questions, which teaches your child to express his ideas. Below are four books in which characters are learning the same skills as your preschooler. Consider adding these to your next stack at the library.
• "The Kissing Hand" (by Audrey Penn): Chester Raccoon just wants to stay with his Mom. Despite her assurances about how great school is, Chester would rather stay home. Chester's Mom sends him off with a special secret (The Kissing Hand) that makes the transition much easier.
• "Chester's Way" (by Kevin Henkes): This is the story of Chester and his friend Wilson, who know just how they like things. From shoelaces to sandwich cutting, these two are best friends. And then Lilly moves into the neighborhood. She turns things upside down and teaches us all about making new friends.
• "Otis" (by Jane Bynum): Otis just doesn't fit in with his family. Despite being a pig, he likes things neat and tidy, including not want to roll in the mud! One day Otis meets a frog with a mud problem. The solution and the friendship will leave your preschooler smiling.
• "I Like Me!" (by Nancy Carlson): Another story about a pig, this book is about loving who you are, an important message to send kids. "I like my curly tail, my round tummy and my tiny little feet," the pig says. "When I make a mistake, I try and try again!" This is a comforting story about loving the special things about oneself.
Each of these books provides an opportunity to talk with your child about what's happening with the characters and what's happening at preschool. Your child will appreciate a safe and fun setting for sharing his feelings.

NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- The mayor was there in a bright red shirt under his blazer, the big artificial tree stood tall there, and so were several hundred people for "Christmas on Canal," the CRA-sponsored event with a cool $10,000 to spark the spirit of shopping. But several miles away on State Road 44, four to five times as many people were actively shopping at the new Walmart supercenter.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. — The vast majority of buyers of Incline Village and Crystal Bay real estate have their primary residence somewhere else. Since most real estate purchases here are discretionary and involve a vacation home, very often consideration is given to the possibility of earning rental revenue to help offset expenses. While searching for that dream vacation home one factor that many buyers take into consideration is whether or not to do short term rentals.
Once you have narrowed down the search to a selection of acceptable properties it is valuable to perform some due diligence and learn if there are any restrictions on your ability to do vacation rentals. When it comes to single-family homes, you can generally do vacation rentals because you have complete control of the property. However, this is not always the case with properties that are part of a homeowners association where there may be rules and restrictions pertaining to vacation rentals and short-term occupancy. So, if you are purchasing a condo or freestanding condo and contemplating doing vacation rentals, understanding the specific rules of the homeowners associations you're interested in early in the process is extremely important.
Generally speaking in the State of Nevada any rental of 29 days or less is considered to be a short-term or vacation rental. Several homeowners associations in Incline Village and Crystal Bay prohibit the renting of a property for less than 30 days. This type of restriction would pretty much preclude doing any type of vacation rentals unless your customers are willing to rent your place for an entire 30 day period or longer.
Some associations have greater restrictions prohibiting any rentals less than six months in length. This is specifically to maintain stability within the population of the community, minimize turnover of rental units and generally provides for a more quiet and peaceful environment. Full time residents of communities that have restrictions on vacation rentals rarely make an effort to change these rules. Very often the reason a buyer purchases in a community that prohibits short-term rentals is so they can be assured of enjoying the same environment they observed at the time they were first looking at the property.
If you are contemplating purchasing a property and looking to earn vacation rental income it's important that you advise your real estate agent as early in the process as possible. We have a tremendous variety of properties from which to choose in our community and there is no sense wasting everybody's time looking at properties that are unsuitable right from the start.
When it comes to purchasing a single-family home and doing vacation rentals there are a number of factors to consider. Location is critical since most renters do not want to be more than 2 miles from the beach unless they are getting a spectacular lakeview or some very special amenities at the property. Having a good floor plan that provides a large space for entertaining but also separate areas for kids and parents to enjoy themselves is a real benefit. Features such as a lakeview, big deck, hot tub, game room or pool table, outdoor space for kids to play, easy driveway access with lots of parking, etc. will make renting easier and bring in a lot more repeat business.
Just because you personally like the floor plan of a house or the location does not mean that the property will work as a vacation rental. Is the kitchen big enough to handle the traffic flow and several people doing food preparation at the same time? Is there a lot of road noise or a relentlessly barking dog next door that makes it impossible to enjoy the peacefulness of the Tahoe environment? You have to weigh all of the intangibles and put yourself in the mindset of a vacation renter; if you rented this place for a weekend would you want to come back here?
If earning vacation rental income is a consideration, while doing looking for properties at Lake Tahoe make sure that you and your agent dig deeply and research each property you are considering as thoroughly as possible. Some properties make great vacation homes but will not work as vacation rentals for one reason or another. Doing your research before writing an offer save will lot of time and aggravation. There is no sense trying to negotiate the purchase of a property if there are limitations that will preclude your dreams from being realized.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: They bit off far more than they could chewIn full: It's all been said above about mile markers, road closures and marshalling. The organiser clearly does not understand the basic elements of what is important to runners competing in a marathon. It's not about marketing, slick websites and empty promises. I feel many corners were cut; metaphorically and literally, and the prime driver in this race was profit, not laying on a good marathon. Utterly appalling fiasco where the woman in 2nd place was sent the wrong way, missing out about 3 miles and this finishing 12 seconds behind minutes ahead of the righful winner - upsetting for both ladies concerned, as well as the other runners sent the wrong way. Concerns about course accuracy as the route was changed at the last minute with no explanation given and runners not being informed. The organiser says it's still the correct length but cannot produce any evidence to support that assertion and seems reluctant to organise a remeasuring as it would eat into his profts. Poor, very poor. Hope it goes ahead again with local clubs organising it.Date of review: April 11, 2012
In short: A race organised like clockworkIn full: Can't fault the pre-race and on-course organisation. Entries on the day taken, clear instructions at the start, mile markers bang on the right place and marhsalls at all relevant points.The course is a fair one - a couple of little climbs but nothing much, but what made for a tough race was running into a strong headwind for 2 miles at the end.One slight disappointment was that the prize ceremony was advertised for 1pm, so having sat in a cafe killing time, we got there at 12.40 to be told they'd already dished out prizes to the first 3 (I was 3rd) and that they would not be awarding vets prizes on the day (my wife was 4th and therefore would have got a vets prize).Having said that, a race I'd recommendDate of review: September 12, 2011
In short: A well organised city marathon. Well done WolverhamptonIn full: I think the organisers did everything they could to make this work well. People whingeing about the car parking should have looked into it before the morning and it was all of 5 minutes walk from the start - I don't see what else people could expect! And for a provincial marathon the support was very good - it had obviously been well publicised in the city.Of course there is going to be traffic on the road - they can't shut down the whole of Wolverhampton for 6 hours!I did the full marathon and there was good support throughout - NB the marshalls are there to direct runners, not act as cheerleaders, although most were encouraging.Date of review: September 7, 2009
In short: Super organisation In full: Yes there may have been few toilets at the start but there was ample woodland around - it's how we managed for centuries before the invention of the chemical toilet:-)Super marshalling. Only mile marker I missed was 11.One slight glitch was a presentation ceremony advertised for 1pm, then at 1.10 an announcement that it would be `in 10 mins' which actually started at 1.34. When you've raced hard getting a decent refuel is pretty important, and expecting to wait around for an hour and it becoming 90 mins + can lead to a depletion.Date of review: June 14, 2009
In short: Everything well planned and executed by Roberttown RR.In full: Excellent organisation all round. Highly recommended.Date of review: May 31, 2009
In short: A super effort from Gillingham Trotters. They got everything right.In full: Detailed pre-race information, prompt start, accurate mile markers, frequent water stations, the ability to leave personal drinks at 20k and 30k, clear marshalling and an excellent job done by the lead cyclists in alerting oncoming traffic to the runners approaching. Nice straight finish along a disused railway trail. Interesting jar of garlic mayonnaise as part of a prize! Top marks for all involved.Date of review: May 3, 2009
In short: Well done Wimborne ACIn full: They got all the things right as far as runners are concerned - accurate course measurement. Mile markers in the right place. Clear marshalling. Quick results. Photos available at the finish. One point about the cakes... - how about having them in the presentation hall next time as I found it a little difficult to shovel down a slab of cake so soon after racing flat out for nearly an hour! Date of review: November 16, 2008
In short: For a championship race there was lack of attention to detailIn full: As has been said, there's no excuse in this day of Garmins for a km mark so far out (I managed 1:50)!Yes, it's not undulating in the slightest - I have measured the climb between 1.2 and 1.8 miles as approximately 250 ft. The biggest climb at a Dorset `Gilly Hilly' race last week was 160 ft over the course of a mile. Also, having run lots in Yorkshire, that hill was tougher than any I can recall in a road race up there.The finishing straight was an interesting one - a glance at the risk assessment on having cars pulling out at random on both sides as people were racing down the last 1/4 mile might reveal otherwise but I don't think so.The results for the intercounty championships were flawed, missing out at least 2 runners I know of, possibly meaning the wrong medals were awarded on the day. Had the race results been published as runners were enduring the long wait for the prizegiving, then such wrinkles would have been ironed out as runners realised that they were missing from the results.No memento. As has been said, not something that bothers me personally, but had it been one of my first races or a special one for me I would have liked something to have shown for my efforts.Yes, the individual marshalls were helpful and the changing facilities were good, with hot showers. The route itself was a pleasant one if not chasing fast times, and a good test of pacing, strength and race craft for a championship event.Date of review: November 9, 2008
In short: Not that hilly really when you come from Yorkshire:-)In full: Good effort all round from Gillingham Trotters.Date of review: November 2, 2008
In short: Very well organised race - shame the prizes did not match those advertisedIn full: Excellent course organisation - good start and finish area, ample parking, friendly efficient marshalls - you couldn' ask for more in a club organised road race. One small gripe that prizes were advertised for the first 6 women but only 3 were awarded. A bit disheartening if you've worked hard to finish in a prize position then find that what was advertised has not been honoured.Date of review: September 1, 2008

Democrats always support AMerica's enemies. They hate any christian nation or jewish nation. They appear under this administration to adore our enemies as Obama and Holder keep 'supporting' them and NOT holding them accountable for the murdering of citizens here. But hey....they still keep 'hoping' each time there's an attack on Americans that the terrorist might be a conservative christian rather than the typical liberal mentally incompetent nut job or muslim terrorist. Be more worried about the enemies in DC.

on March 4, 2013 - 11:21 PM
RALEIGH, N.C. — The Buffalo Sabres' power play ranks last in the NHL with a 10.7 percent success rate. They only wish it was clicking that well.
The Sabres enter tonight's game in Carolina in a 3-for-59 nose-dive with the man-advantage. That equates to only 5 percent during the last 16 games, so 10.7 percent would look pretty good right now.
Though they've struggled for much longer than the six games Ron Rolston has been behind the bench, the interim coach absorbed the blame Monday.
"Since I've been here, it's probably more my fault than anybody in a sense that with limited practice time coming in it's something that we really haven't put a lot of focus on," Rolston said from the team hotel after canceling practice. "We've had to focus on some other areas to get where we are more structurally, so it's my job now to make sure we put a lot of emphasis on that."
The Sabres are likely to work with the unit during the morning skate in PNC Arena before taking on the Hurricanes.
"We'll look at personnel, and we'll look at everything we can to make it better," Rolston said.
The unit could get a boost with the return of leading scorer Thomas Vanek, who is expected back after missing two games with an upper-body injury. But it will take more than one person to get the faltering unit on track.
"We just have to get more pucks on net, and the second opportunities are huge a lot of the times," defenseman Christian Ehrhoff said. "We get the puck to the net, and the team will get it and throw it down, and we have to start over from scratch. If you get those second opportunities, you get the teams scrambling and stuff will open up for you.
"Obviously, a huge part, too, is net presence. A lot of the time now with goalies being so good, with a clean shot they'll make the save. You've got to get screens so that they don't see the puck."
A personnel swap could include Mikhail Grigorenko, who skated with the unit for 1:51 during Sunday's 3-2 shootout loss to the New York Rangers.
"That was really the first since I've been here where he was able to put two in a row together of the same consistency and compete level and the details," Rolston said. "If he continues to play the way he is, those are possibilities for him."
Rolston elected not to practice following back-to-back games.
"We thought it was important for the guys to have a day where they could kind of recharge physically, mentally, emotionally to get back to where we needed to be," he said. "We want to make sure we have the right energy."
Several players had an off-ice workout, including Vanek and defenseman Jordan Leopold, who will miss his seventh game with an upper-body injury.
"Leo, he's feeling better," Rolston said. "He's making good strides, but he still will probably be a little bit longer."
Forward Ville Leino, who hasn't played all season because of a hip injury, is also on the road with the team.
"We want those guys around so they can start getting back into things, getting back into practice situations with the guys," Rolston said, "so when they're ready to go there's a better transition period there."
Hurricanes goaltender Cam Ward could miss the remainder of the season with a knee injury, the team announced Monday. Ward suffered a third-degree sprain of his medial collateral ligament Sunday and will miss six to eight weeks.
Ward is 9-6-1 with a 2.84 goals-against average and .908 save percentage. Dan Ellis, who is 3-2 with a 2.53 and .923, inherits the crease.
"That's tough," Sabres goalie Ryan Miller said. "I don't know if they're going to be missing too much. Cam obviously is a big leader for them, but Ellis has played well."

The story is so familiar to Troy Hembury, he recounts it like it's his phone number. He remembers being in his first state tournament at the Giant Center in Hershey, preparing for the 145-pound semifinals, knowing he was in for an uphill battle.
As a sophomore, Hembury was facing former state champion Nick Hodgkins of Wyomissing, and despite the great season he had put together, the likelihood of him beating Hodgkins was slim. He remembers making the comment that he had a "buzz saw" in his next match with Hodgkins.
His uncle stopped him after that comment and told Hembury something he has never forgotten.
Article Photos
Muncy's Troy Hembury left, has more career victories than any District 4 wrestler at this week's PIAA?championships.
"He tells me, you are the buzz saw," the now Muncy senior recounted earlier this week. "He said you have to believe that's who you are."
Hembury ended up finishing fifth that year in the state tournament. But his uncle's statement was prophetic. Hembury's become as dominant a wrestler as there is in District 4 as a senior.
His 163 career wins are more than any other District 4 wrestler competing at the state tournament, which begins Thursday morning at 9 a.m. And with a top-8 finish this weekend, Hembury will become just the third three-time state placewinner in school history, joining Harold Hill and Larry Lauchle.
He's the No. 2-ranked wrestler at 182 pounds in the state, behind just three-time state placewinner and returning state runner-up Dakota DesLauriers of Burrell. The truth is Hembury has nothing left to prove in his high school career. That being said, a state championship is the only thing missing.
"I would love to win states," Hembury said. "I do a lot of freestyle and Greco, and it would have been nice to win at Fargo. That's a lot bigger accomplishment than states. But states is the big thing right now."
He's maybe best prepared for the state tournament now as a senior than he was in his first two trips to the tournament. As a sophomore at 145, he was sucked out with his weight in order to best fit into Muncy's lineup in a season in which it went to the PIAA Duals tournament.
Last year, at 170 pounds, he learned he wasn't quite strong enough to deal with the upper echelon kids in his weight. It was the first thing he pointed to after the tournament as the reason he didn't place higher than fourth.
He noticed it most in his quarterfinal loss to United's John Blankenship, a match in which he was pinned in overtime. Hembury was in deep on shots numerous times but just didn't have the strength to finish them.
Now, as a senior, Hembury looks physically bigger. He also says he feels stronger.
"Everyone I talk to says I'm significantly stronger," Hembury said. "I definitely feel a lot stronger. I'm not cutting much weight at all, and I think that has a lot to do with it. I hit the weights harder this year. I knew not being strong enough was one of the reasons I lost and I used it as motivation."
Now you combine that improved strength with the tactician he is on the mat, and Hembury is having the best season of his career, and is in the midst of his best opportunity to become a state champion. His lone loss this year came on the second day of the season to Bald Eagle Area's Jacob Taylor, a favorite to win the Class AAA 182-pound title, on a controversial penalty point.
Just three of his wins this year have been by decision, and the last one was a 3-1 win over Central Mountain two-time state qualifier Blaze Backwater on Dec. 29. Just one of his eight postseason bouts went a full six minutes, and that one was an 18-4 win over Brenton's Logan Dusseldorf in last week's Northeast Regional final.
His first five postseason wins were by technical fall, and the next two were by fall. Only the likes of Miltown's Ryan Solomon and Brenton's Rain Rutherford can claim to have had as dominant seasons as Hembury has this year in District 4.
"I definitely think I'm peaking right now which Coach (Denny) Harer is always trying to get us to do," Hembury said. "At sectionals and districts he wants us peaking because if you peak too early, you'll have to come back down eventually. I feel pretty tough right now, but I can always get better."
Hembury has translated maybe the best career in Muncy wrestling history which includes three sectional, district and regional titles into a chance to wrestle next year at Columbia. And wrestling for Columbia wasn't something Hembury thought was going to happen.
In fact, when he made his visit to the New York City campus with his dad, Ron, he was actually making the visit to cross the school off his list of potential wrestling destinations.
"I was a little bit against it, but I fell in love with the place," Hembury said. "It was just amazing how you could have such a nice place right in the middle of the city."
Ever since he had started his college search, his dad kept bringing up the idea of going to Cornell. Both Ron and his wife Lori are Cornell graduates.
Troy used to joke with his dad that if he went to Lehigh it would only be a 2 -hour trip to come watch him wrestle. His dad would respond by saying if you go a certain way to Ithaca, it's actually shorter than that.
But Hembury found his home at Columbia. He plans on majoring in either finance or economics, especially with Columbia's proximity to Wall Street and the opportunities it would help provide.
"I'm not going to be able to wrestle my whole life, and only a select few get to be a head coach for a college wrestling team," Hembury said. "But my parents taught me since I was young that your grades are just as important as wrestling. They both experienced the Ivy League and they pushed me to look at that. It's a special fraternity and there's great alumni who can open doors for you."
For now, Hembury will have to settle for opening up his own doors. He'll look to open the one to a state championship this weekend.

SpongeBob™ SquarePants
Big Easy™ Game Rules
How To Win
To reach the treasure chest with the MOST Krabby Patties on your Character Card. You will need Krabby Patties in order to have enough strength to get to the treasure chest.
Set Up
1. Assemble the Spinner by snapping the stud and arrow into place at the hole of the Spinner card.
2. Unfold the Big Easy™ Floor Mat face up on the floor so that each player can sit around it.
3. Place the Tray Card on the image of the tray in the lower right corner of the floor mat.
4. Each player chooses a Character Card and places it into a game stand.
5. Place the Character Cards with stands at START.
6. Place the sheet of Colorforms Stick-Ons™ in easy reach of each player.
How to Move
1. The youngest player goes first by spinning the Spinner. The arrow will either point to a color and a number, or to Plankton.
2. That player chooses to move his/her Character Card ahead by the number shown, or move to the next space displaying the matching color. Sometimes it is beneficial to move by color; sometimes it is more rewarding to move by number. A player might try to avoid a character marker or avoid a location. One strategy may get you to the treasure faster, but another strategy may help you gain more patties. For younger players, see "Special Rules For Younger Players."
3. Play passes to the next player on the left.
4. If the Spinner lands on Plankton, the player "loses a turn" by having to place his/her Character Card at The Chum Bucket and lose four of the patties that are on his/her card. The player must place patties on the Tray Card at the corner of the floor mat.
5. When moving along the mat, a player may land on a space containing a character image (SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, Plankton or Mr.Krabs). These character markers require players to jump to that character's house (or restaurant) and collect or lose the number of patties indicated at that location.
6. Each player can move forward or backward on any given path, even if that player has already traveled down that path.
7. A player does not need to spin the exact number in order to move into a home/location space. Player just needs to spin the minimum number to enter that space.
8. When a player reaches a location, that player must stop. The player takes the number of Krabby Patty Stick-Ons specified and sticks them onto his/her card.
How to Collect Krabby Patties
1. Along the different pathways leading to the chest are different characters' homes, The Krusty Krab and The Chum Bucket. Each player gains or loses a specified number of Krabby Patties when they land in one of these locations:
2. If a player loses patties because of his/her landing location or because the Spinner lands on Plankton, he/she must place patties on the Tray Card in the corner of the mat.
Special Rules for Younger Players
To start, play this game using only the wedges on the Spinner that show the colors. Players advance on the mat by moving to the next space displaying the color shown on the Spinner. When players have mastered this version, they can switch to using only the ring of the Spinner displaying the numbers. Players move ahead by the number shown on the Spinner. If the Spinner lands on Plankton, the player "loses a turn" by having to place his/her Character Card at The Chum Bucket and lose four of his/her patties that are on the card. The player must place patties on the Tray Card at the corner of the floor mat.
For Older Players and Players Familiar with the SpongeBob™ SquarePants Animated Series
When a player lands on his/her character's own home, he/she gets to collect a decorative Colorforms Stick-On that relates to the character's personality and stick that piece onto the card:
An extra set of these decorative Colorforms Stick-Ons (Krusty Krab hat, clarinet, bar, cowboy hat) is provided on the sheet, in case any pieces are lost.
At the Treasure Chest
If more than one player arrives at the treasure chest at the same time, the player with the MOST Krabby Patties on his/her Character Card wins the game!

We had a de-lightful weekend after all. Despite what I wrote yesterday, I really did have a great time with the kids. Hubs expected me to run away when he finally got home but instead I just went to bed. It was super nice.
Dishes were still in the sink and laundry was waiting patiently when
Today was beautiful. We spent it at church and then with family for my nephew's birthday party. I was thinking that maybe in heaven our weeks will be filled with only Saturdays and Sundays. Sometimes I close my eyes and trick my heart and summer feels like that, too.
Tonight the kids are going to bed early so that hubby and I can watch the Survivor finale and eat fancy cheese. We live the high life. We really do.
