The Mankato Free Press
---- — It's been almost a week since the state softball tournament at Caswell Park ended.
Looking back, three things stand out to this sports writer.
The first was the defensive play of Elk River's Jayme Langbehn in the Class AAA championship game.
The freshman almost single-handidly saved the game for the Elks, robbing Prior Lake of two potential home runs in centerfield. The highlight-reel catches kept Elk River in the game until it could push across the winning run in the eighth inning of a 4-3 victory.
Her defensive feats were appreciated by everyone in attendance — coaches, players and spectators alike. Considering the closeness of the game, her performance heightened the drama of what will always be a memorable finale.
The second thing that stands out to me is the performance of the New Ulm squad successfully defending its Class AA state title. It's not surprising that the Eagles won again, but what is surprising is the manner in which they did it.
Fastpitch has long been considered 90 percent pitching and 10 percent everything else. For New Ulm, however, that's not the case.
Senior Sydney Schuck is a quality high school pitcher but she's far from the flame-throwing, strikeout machine that fans normally associate with championship teams. Instead, she gets batters out by effectively changing speeds.
If you compared Schuck's fastball to that of everybody else's in the tournament, she'd probably end up in the bottom half of all pitchers. But she possesses a devastating change-up she throws with great accuracy.
Schuck uses the change just often enough to keep opposing batters guessing. She also mixes it in enough to make her other pitches that much effective.
Instead of relying on the dominant hard-throwing pitcher, New Ulm relies on a solid all-around defense and good hitting to beat most of its opponents. So much for the if-you-don't-have-an-all-world-pitcher-you-can't-win-it-all theory.
The third thing that sticks out is the overall interest in the tournament despite the absence of any Mankato teams. East, West and Loyola all failed to qualify for this year's competition but nearly 7,500 fans still came out to watch the best in the state do their thing.
Few left disappointed as the tournament included numerous extra-inning games and plenty of upsets of high-powered schools getting knocked off by unranked teams. The Class AAA title game couldn't have been closer or more exciting and there wasn't a Cougar, a Scarlet or a Crusader in sight.

- Inexpensive
- Reusable
- Easy for child to pull up and down
- Thin enough that child feels wet and dirty
- More like what adults wear
- If child has an accident, entire change of clothing is often necessary
- Creates a lot of laundry
- Doesn't protect surfaces when in the car or on an outing
Cloth Training Pants
- Reusable
- More expensive than underwear, but less expensive than disposable training pants
- Thick enough to sometimes protect surfaces, but thin enough that child still feels wet or dirty
- Sometimes not thick enough to protect outer clothing, so change of clothing may be necessary in case of accidents
- Creates a lot of laundry
- Sometimes will not protect surfaces when in car or on an outing
- Less like adult underwear
- Can be difficult for child to pull up and down
Disposable Training Pants (like Pull-ups)
- Protect outer clothing when accidents occur
- Can be a good transition out of a diaper if child is uncomfortable with underwear
- Disposable
- No Laundry
- Protects surfaces when in car or on an outing
- Expensive
- Have to go to the store when you run out
- Child often doesn't feel wetness and so is less aware
- Feels like a diaper, so child may feel no difference between being in diapers and learning to potty
- Sometimes difficult for children to pull up or down
- Not at all like adult underwear
You may choose one method exclusively, which is often recommended so that it promotes consistency and eliminates any confusion. You may choose to use underwear during the day and disposable training pants at night or during naps, as many parents do. This is a good strategy since children often gain control during sleep much later than they do during waking hours.
Ultimately the decision will be what works for you and for your child. Don't be afraid to try a method and then switch to another if one is plainly not working. Once you find what works, stick with it and keep on going.

D'Las Sports Blue Restauarant and Bar opened its doors Saturday, just in time to celebrate the new year.
Owner LaTonya Stanford waited just six months for her plans to come to pass. "I finally have my dream-come-true," said Stanford. "Chicago Heights residents can come out enjoy good food be entertained and just relax."
Key Heights residents were on hand to help cut the ribbon on Saturday afternoon, including Mayor David Gonzalez. Corporation Counsel Thomas "TJ" Somer and Ecomonic Development Director Joe Kudra. Bloom Township committeeman Terry Matthews welcomed the business as well.
Asked what she is proud of on the menu, Stanford said the beef. "We're known for real steakburgers," she said. "We have a house special, a turkey burger named after me, 'Tony's Blue Turkey Burger,' which is served on a pretzel roll. Then we have rip tips, chicken, vegetarian chili, catfish and more."
Stanford is proud to open her new sports bar on the corner of Vollmer and Dixie, joining other popular eateries such as the Egg & I, Classic Cobbler and Bergstein's Deli.
"I love it here," Stanford said. "The people are awesome in Chicago Heights, they have made me feel so welcome. I couldn't see being anywhere else."

It's the spring of 2015, and the car rental workers at John Wayne Airport in Orange County are reporting that visitors from Pittsburgh, Kansas City, New York, Tampa, Boston and Atlanta have been making strange requests.
Instead of the usual, "How do you get to Disneyland?" they're asking, "How do you get to Aliso Niguel High?"
Call it the Kyle Molnar effect.
Over the next three baseball seasons, the 6-foot-3 right-hander has a chance to become a pitcher who thrills scouts, excites fans and fires up opponents hoping to test themselves against the best.

Months after Kevin Smith announced his uncharacteristic self-distribution strategy for his equally uncharacteristic thriller "Red State" to a befuddled Sundance crowd, the movie has found a more conventional home.
In a lengthy blog post chronicling some of the opposition he has received to the movie and its release strategy, Smith announces that Lionsgate has picked up digital and TV rights for the movie, which means it will become available on VOD in early September, ahead of its planned October release (Smith's SModcast Pictures has retained theatrical distribution rights in the U.S., with Phase 4 releasing the film in Canada.)
The announcement arrives on the heels of Smith's national "Red State Tour," an ambitious cross-country attempt to make back the movie's $4 million production costs with special screenings of "Red State" in dozens of American cities. As we reported in April, "Red State" completed its tour at Los Angeles' Wiltern Theater with a cumulative takeaway of $851,832 from 15 screenings (although Smith claims the movie is in the black due to foreign sales).
Naturally, Smith doesn't just get the word out about the Lionsgate deal without a little color. In addition to noting the Lionsgate news, Smith's emphatic post, which runs nearly 4,000 words, contains a lot of emphatic boasting about the success of his DIY distribution efforts:
Removing art or show from the equation for a moment, opinions vary as to whether I'm a good director or not, but you've gotta agree I'm a good business man: I always keep production costs low and I have the confidence in what I make to accompany my product into the marketplace, selling without incurring the usual ridiculous marketing expenses. Theatrical release is where the costs have always bogged my shit down – and it was always the only cost not under my control. We made "Red State" for $4 million, but we'd have to spend minimum $10 million on P&A if we went the traditional theatrical route. You can't release a film in a vacuum or else folks won't know it's there...My theory was that we had audience enough to cut the ropes, drop the sails, and make for the new world – a world that made use of social media and long-tails. A world where the marketing costs were less than the cost to produce the art itself. Krypton was dying; and I love my art like I love my child, so I threw my art into a rocket on that stage and sent it anywhere else, other than the dying world of traditional theatrical distribution.
Of course, it remains to be seen whether "Red State" faces a vacuum this September when it hits the VOD market. Rest assured, however, that Smith will have something to say about it.
Sarah G | June 29, 2011 8:42 AM
RED STATE is an amazing movie that needs to be seen one way or the other. Smith knows what he's doing. If you were lucky enough to see the movie and Smith speak on his tour then you know how incredible this movie is and how amazing and genuine Smith is.
Elliot X | June 29, 2011 8:19 AM
The problem is that ONLY industry insiders and Smith fanatics have ever heard of RED STATE. He can complain about the $10 million "wasted" on marketing -- but it was the millions spent on marketing his films by the brothers Weinstein that made Smith a household name (despite never having had a big hit).
As RED STATE disappears into a black hole, I suspect that Smith will be singing a different tune on P & A.

North Jefferson News
Good morning, and with apologies to our boss, Roll Tide…
Weather: Here comes the rain again. After a mostly sunny day today, we'll see clouds roll in tonight with rain possible after midnight. Highs will be in the middle 50s with lows in the middle 40s. Chance of rain late tonight is 40 percent. Rain picks up a bit Wednesday and lingers through the rest of the week.
It's a dynasty. Stacy Long of The Montgomery Advertiser said it best, and we're happy to give him credit: "4-Leaf Clobber." The Alabama Crimson Tide made short work of top-rated Notre Dame in the BCS Championship Game Monday night with a 42-14 victory at Sun Life Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla. Quarterback A.J. McCarron threw for four touchdowns, and had the game wrapped up so early that ESPN cameras spent more time focusing on his girlfriend, Miss Alabama Katherine Webb, watching from the stands. Amari Cooper caught two scoring passes, while Eddie Lacy caught one and then ran for another touchdown. It's the third national championship for the Tide in the last four seasons and the 15th overall.
Line up, folks. And Tide fans did, at retailers such as Hibbett Sports in Fultondale and Gardendale just minutes after the end of the title game. Local stores reported good business as T-shirts and other Alabama-adorned merchandise moved briskly. Elsewhere in the metro area, some stores had lines more than a block long, and stores stayed open well into the wee hours.
Kimberly church proposal meets roadblock. Last week, a request by Church 29:11 to use the vacant former IGA supermarket as a new church was turned down by the Kimberly Planning and Zoning Board, before a packed meeting room. Tonight, the City Council has the final say, and a full chamber is expected for the meeting starting at 6:30. We'll have full coverage afterward.
Taking a stand for gun rights. The Gardendale City Council passed on Monday a special resolution expressing its support for the Second Amendment of the Constitution and the right to bear arms. The resolution came in the face of increased calls for tighter gun controls, in the wake of the massacre at a school in Newtown, Conn. In other business, the council gave the Gardendale Historical Society a new home — a building next to the Civic Center that for many years was the home of The North Jefferson News.
Sports: Meanwhile, back at home... High school sports gets back into swing tonight with a full slate of prep basketball action. Gardendale plays at Carver, Mortimer Jordan heads to Walker, Corner hosts Cordova, Fultondale is at nearby Tarrant, Pinson Valley welcomes Moody, Hayden makes the short drive to Cleveland, Locust Fork travels to St. Clair County and Tabernacle Christian hosts Cullman Christian. In wrestling, Gardendale hosts a tri-match with Hewitt-Trussville and Buckhorn, Pinson Valley and Thompson are in a tri-match at Clay-Chalkville, Fultondale and American Christian contest a tri-match at Calera, and Mortimer Jordan holds a tri-match with Hueytown and J.B. Pennington.

Fiance & I are looking to build a very long term home on my grandmother's property. Thinking of getting her uncle to help build, since he built his home. Any advice from DIY about building a home without going 100% full time professional home builders? (self.DIY)
submitted 1 year ago by brentkb903
My grandmother owns several acre's with a couple of my family's houses on it. We want to build one for ourselves. The land is free for our use from her. We live in NE Texas and had looked into going 100% professional from start to finish, but we realized there were several people that we knew that had built their own homes and that we may be able to save quite a bit of money if we enlisted the help of the family members and friends. Unfortunately I'm very inexperienced when it comes to any of this whole process so any advice, tips, or tricks would be greatly appreciated.

A pro builder is a master estimator. Always give a 20-30% overestimate of time and costs, just for unpredicted stuff
[–]IDontherun 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I built my own home and later remodeled an older home. The first project was a 27 month endurance run that ended up contributing to the end of my first marriage. The second was a 6 month sprint to flip a place for profit, back when that was something people could do in the US housing market.
My advice: take your time, plan ahead, and account for overages in your costs. Read and view as much as you can. Walk through under-construction homes in your area during weekends or evenings. Absorb all the lessons about foundations, framing, and finishing that you can. You might even build a small structure like a shed first to learn and practice. Maybe this is already under your belt, but it can help.
Should you ultimately go the total-DIY route: while you will likely save some money (maybe 33% to 50% per square foot), you will most likely also see your timeline to completion extend out further than a pro-built project would end up being. Think 7 to 15 months, rather than 4 to 8. That may be an okay trade off for you to make, just recognize it as being a possible outcome.
Think about the discreet jobs you may wish to sub-contract out to save time: drywall, septic/sewer, roofing, etc. You can essentially be the GC and pick and choose when you'll bring in a pro to throw things into warp speed when you need to.
And finally, be sure you and she are going in with the same goals from the outset, as well as throughout the project. It sounds like you are, but be sure to discuss as many possible outcomes as you can imagine together. If your goals align, that will definitely help.
Good luck. It can be a lot of fun. And it can also erode your will to live.
PS: invest in a really good hammer.
[–]icameforthecookies 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
Do all of your planning beforehand. Everything. Leave nothing to be decided on.
In a nutshell most if not all marital of maritals happen because of home building or renovation time lag. Frustrations build up and it brings hostility. This time should be fun and exciting for you two, so work together towards that. Also keep an open mind that homebuilding takes time. It may start off fast but it can slow down to a crawl at times.
[–]jstamey 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago*
Edit: the advice above is good.
Banks won't often lend money if you don't have a portion of it done or supervised by pros. Be sure to secure the money
[–]chewy_fett 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
Not exactly sure what this comment means. Construction loans are a very common practice with the owner/builder acting as the contractor.
[–]jstamey 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I guess my experience has been different. The bankers I know want component folks building and managing the job so that they don't loan money on a poorly built should the owner default on the loan. That's not to say that an owner can't do it.
Yeah, could be different depending on the bank and situation. I should say, I am basing my opinion on having a family member in the mortgage business for 20+ years and knowing a few people directly who have done the "DIY" route of building their home.
All that being said, build brick, stone, something that will actually BE long term :)
[–]icameforthecookies -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago
True that. It can be more difficult to secure fundage.
[–]klevenisms204 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
make sure you take out permits and everything is up to code. dont do things half assed.
do what you can, hire help for what you cant..
if its a long term home, dont skimp to save a few hundred dollars

Check out www.ana-white.com they built a house in alaska...are building rather... Its called the momplex theres a whole thread about it....super detailed and interesting.
[–]framerotblues 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
It will always go slower than you think it will. It will always cost more than you initially budgeted for. /u/Duckbilling is right on.
If it's a special tool you need to do a task, rent it or borrow it instead of buying it. Impact drivers and screw guns can be really handy for tasks around your new house after it's built; compound power miter boxes and power trowels are not.
Enlist help from family and friends when you can, but make sure to be right there helping out in some way/shape/form, and be sure they have a good supply of food and drink (water, beer, what have you).
Some things you have to subcontract out, such as drilling a well. Talk to your neighbors and find out who's good and who's not. Expensive is not the same as bad if the job is done right the first time.
Measure twice, cut once. Double and triple check everything. It takes a bit more time but it's still faster than having to do a task over.
There is more written word about building your own house at your local library than any of us could ever type to you here. Don't forget the periodicals section.
[–]Kersquaw 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
If you're looking for something a little different, take a look at shipping container homes, fully customizable and they can be made as basic or extravagant as you want/can afford. Or try building a dome home, they're simple enough to build yourself and are extremely energy efficient. A guy I went to school with lived in a three-dome one down in Texas and said all he needed in the winter was a fireplace in the center dome and in the summer, a window AC unit in each side dome. Also, the rounded edges make it harder for tornadoes to grab on and rip your house apart. These are the two ideas I've been looking into myself, good luck!

Hughie Jennings died in 1928, but I feel like I know him well.
Jennings, the former Baltimore Oriole and manager of the Detroit Tigers, who was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1945, will have another moment of glory on Sunday when Ozzie Smith reads his plaque. The 1945 induction didn't take place because of war-time travel restrictions.
I stumbled upon the man they called Ee-yah – apparently based on his battle cry – when I became interested in the story of The Paper Tigers, which I have written up as a screenplay and am now adapting into a historical novel.
In 1912, Ty Cobb responded to a racist taunt by a "crank" in New York City by beating the fan bloody. The fan, Claude Luecker, had lost several fingers in a machine accident, and a friend of his pleaded with Cobb to show mercy because he had no hands. Cobb allegedly responded "I don't care if he hasn't any feet" and continued the beating. Several reports said Luecker was beaten close to death.
The president of the American League, the appropriately named Ban Johnson, suspended Cobb indefinitely. The Tigers moved on to play the world champion A's in Philadelphia, but Jennings could sense that his team was on the verge of mutiny. He urged them to play the next game, but then encouraged them to issue Johnson an ultimatum to reinstate Cobb or they would go on strike.
Neither side would give in, and the Tigers went on strike. Johnson ordered the Tigers to field a team or else. Jennings was dispatched by Tiger owner Frank Navin to the streets of Philadelphia to find some scabs. Pro sports had its first player strike and scab team in one day.
The Paper Tigers got killed by the champs that day, 24-2, but rest assured that won't be the focus of the movie. They were an interesting group, mostly college kids from St. Joseph's, but a couple were ringers. One, a guy named Eddie Irwin, was a boxer; he apparently was a ringer and he hit two triples that day. His .667 lifetime batting average is a stat anomaly that will likely never be matched. Another ringer was Billy "Maharg" Graham. He would go on to help fix the World Series in 1919.

After the Euro Zone economic crisis yielded new lows for investors, business consulting company RCBryan & Associates announced a new campaign to guide investors through this economic crisis. The new program launched after yields on 10-year Treasuries hit a record-low and panicked investors quickly began pulling out of financial assets. These low yields have shown the lost confidence in EU policy makers to resolve the current debt crisis and have been creating great uncertainty in the minds of investors and entrepreneurs across the globe.
Faced with the repercussions of the Euro Zone debt crisis, many traditional and web entrepreneurs have been seeking ways to weather the storm created from the crisis. The issue has been effecting business professionals world-wide and left many looking for new ways to overcome the financial crisis, and for new business solutions to combat the effects of the crisis.
The new RCBryan & Associates campaign will be leading an effort to provide the entrepreneurs impacted by the Eurozone crisis guidance and coaching tailored to their unique post-crisis needs. The newly designed program will offer professional guidance and resources these entrepreneurs need to succeed during this tough economic climate and during the aftershock of the Eurozone crisis. The focus of the new campaign will be on the numerous hurdles put in place by the Eurozone economic crisis and will provide entrepreneurs with an arsenal of tools needed to overcome these obstacles and find new forms of business success.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's reconciliation after her affair may be the makeup that hardly anyone thought would or should happen after their brief break-up—if it can even be called that. But in light of the upcoming Breaking Dawn-Part 2 premiere on November 16, some of the more jaded have postulated that the Hollywood power couple's renewed romance is merely for show business and that it won't last past the final Twilight zone. According to a new report, though, Pattinson is simply back together with Stewart because he couldn't imagine it any other way.
"The reason Rob has decided on taking her back is that they have been together for so long and became worldwide stars together, and Rob feels that he can not have that connection with anyone else," a source close to the couple recently revealed exclusively to Hollywood Life. However, Pattinson has probably faced plenty of challenges in moving past his girlfriend's wandering eye. But love (and a long history together) conquers all, at least in this case it seems.
What's more, this insider also said, "He really loves her and is scared [of] what others might do to him in a relationship. He thinks that they might use him or have different intentions. He is comfortable with Kristen, and he is happy with her, and she knows it. He feels that she is the best for him."
Robert Pattinson shouldn't sell himself short, though. He and Kristen Stewart may be a good match, but a cheating girlfriend is never "best," and Pattinson (well, anyone for that matter) deserves better than that.
However, it's probably a valid point that it could be hard for a bold-name, heart-throb star like Pattinson to find true love again now that his fame quotient has reached stratospheric levels. He and Stewart are on a similar playing field when it comes to fame, but how would he ever know for sure if another lesser-known starlet (or even someone who's not even in the Hollywood scene) is dating him to elevate her own status? It's a classic "famous person" relationship problem. At least Pattinson knows what he's getting with Stewart... at least most of the time.

IN CHAPTER 6 WE looked at how to include data in an application and visualize it in interesting ways. Up to now we have focused on the output side of the platform, looking at how an application is built up from controls that use visuals to display and layout to position everything. Now we can start to look at the input side of the platform.
Often we want an application to respond in some way when a user moves the mouse, clicks a button, presses a key, or draws with a pen. Windows Presentation Foundation has three common ways of dealing with actions: events, commands, and triggers. We will look at the principles that apply to all three of these mechanisms, and then dig into the details about each one.

Admit it, you can't run through your entire list of mentally captured financial to-do's and fix everything at one time, but you can do the Next Best Thing!
This week I want to address a "hurdle" that we as advisors see people stumble over time and time again. A "hurdle" in this context refers to something that prevents people from taking action when it comes to their finances.
For some, the thought of dealing with what at times seems like a financial to-do list a mile long can be overwhelming. This overwhelming feeling can be followed by paralysis and as a result, nothing is addressed. Here's a thought: though you may not be able to tackle the entire list of all the financial changes you can make, you can do the Next Best Thing.
Everyone has heard the old line, "Rome wasn't built in a day." The same can be said about our finances. It is a PROCESS to achieve financial success, and a process can take time. A process is followed step by step, diligently, until a goal is achieved. The first step is just that, the first step. The fifth step can't come before the first, so take the first step!!!
The confusing part comes next…what is the next best thing? Unfortunately, there is no one right answer. For some, it may be paying down a debt. For others, building their emergency/opportunity fund is the next move to make. Maybe for you it is finally rolling that old 401k into an IRA where you have full control of your money. The point is that for everyone the next move is different, but the process stays the same.
We get asked all of the time, "Brian and Caleb, who are your biggest competitors?" The answer draws a smile when we hear it because the reality is that our biggest competitor is not a who, but rather, a what. Our biggest competitor without a doubt is "Do Nothing" and if we can get people viewing their finances in the right light, perhaps our competition will vanish and our clients will be more financially successful. The moral of the story is this, do something. Do the Next Best Thing! If you don't know what that is, just ask!
How has paralysis by analysis prevented you from digging into the Next Best Thing?

Seattle transportation officials are expanding their parklet program, designed to convert parking spaces outside downtown businesses into public open space.
SDOT has announced that out of 14 applicants, 10 new businesses will host the new parklets out front as part of a pilot program.
Currently there is only one parklet in Seattle. Montana Bar on Capitol Hill uses the space for outdoor seating and public space.
City officials say the privately funded parklets activate streets, create vibrant neighborhoods, and support the economic vitality of retail and business districts.
But in an already congested city, the parklets are not sitting well with drivers.
"I don't feel like a strong lack of outdoor seating affects me like a lack of parking does," says Emile Grant, a Seattle driver.
Before selecting the new parklet sites, SDOT says it conducted studies to ensure the removal of the parking space would not impact the neighborhoods.
"We want to make sure that we do not damage the supply and availability of parking," says Jennifer Wieland, parklet program manager for the city of Seattle. "We do see parklets as a tremendous public benefit. Public open space is a great thing for neighborhoods."
There are currently 13,000 on-street paid parking spaces in Seattle.
The new parklets are scheduled to be installed sometime in the fall.

McDonald's came out with the 3rd iteration of their McDonald's / SEGA video game franchise partnership and this time it's free with every purchase of a Happy Meal. I collected the first McDonald's / SEGA collaboration [sixthseal.com] as well as SEGA 2 [sixthseal.com and I wasn't about to miss the third.
TAILS SKY ADVENTURE is the first electronic game in the Sega 3
series and David was kind enough to get it for me while I was in the
hospital (it was the very last set). It came with a Cheeseburger and
Corn Happy Meal if that interests you, which I don't think it does. ;)
The manual is printed like the previous iterations of the McDonald's
/ SEGA collaboration – it's a single sheet of paper with instructions
on how to play the game – in this case TAILS SKY ADVENTURE, a Sonic
franchise character.
TAILS SKY ADVENTURE opens up like a clamshell phone to reveal the
game which has two directional buttons and an action button. The
premise of the game is to shoot down rogue squadrons by moving left and
right and pressing the button while navigating TAILS to victory.
Here is a screenshot of the action – it's a little harder than the
previous games, or perhaps I've just lost a lot of my hand eye
coordination from the benzos and antipsychotics I'm taking coz I
couldn't even finish it after the sixth attempt!
Bring down the enemy ships! Good luck!

Re: Increased FOV... OMG!!!!!!!Gromit69 Nov 26, 2011 5:23 PM (in response to Sneekyp)
He did it in theartre mode, apparently it doesn't work in MP but if it did it would cause a ban coz it's done via a hex editor.
The standard FOV makes me fell queezy, without a viable workaround for the FOV i won't play it, the widescreen fix only stretches the horizontal and leaves the vertical at default making it feel even worse, plus it's pretty hard to get looking even close to right coz it's only designed for more than one monitor.

I didn't notice my pc case blocking the right side of the screen, a stack of books blocking the left side and i was squinting so i couldn't see the top and bottom. Now i've moved them and opened my eyes the fov is fine...

Re: Increased FOV... OMG!!!!!!!tehminja1134 Nov 27, 2011 6:46 PM (in response to Sneekyp)
Widescreen fixer works wonders, but then again i have three monitors, so it's kind of a necessity for me.

Best Weird Sport Invented in San Francisco San Francisco 2004 - Ride & Tie
Ride & Tie is an obscure endurance sport that's part relay race and part horse race, dreamed up as a publicity stunt by a Levi's marketing executive in 1971 (competitors wore cutoff Levi's). A team of two covers a distance of 20 to 100 miles -- one person running, the other on horseback. After a few miles (the distance is up to each pair), the two switch off: The rider ties up the horse, the runner hops on, and they set out again. This scenario is repeated until the duo reaches the finish line. Ride & Tie is popular among athletic millionaires with their own horses -- San Francisco financier Warren Hellman is a longtime participant; Robert Redford used to be. Most races are held in Northern California parks, with practice sessions at Tennessee Valley. Organizers are happy to pair athletes who have running or riding abilities with a horse and partner.

Facials, massages, nails, waxing... the word 'Spa' has come to mean so many different things to us over the last twenty years. For this week's Patch Picks we asked for unusual (or unusually good) local spa options.
Somerville's is designed especially for mothers with young children and expectant mothers-to-be. With ten years of thriving business in Davis Square, the spa has earned a solid reputation. Chose from four 55-minute facials (basic, purifying, hydrating or vitamin C-infused) and leave your cares at the door... or, if your 'cares' are in a stroller, there's plenty of room to park them. For toddlers, there's comfortable seating and things to read. And expecting moms can enjoy a comfy treatment on their side with added pillows for cushioning.
Dressed as James Brown, Eddie Murphy used to ask, "Is it gon'be hot? Is it gon'be wet?" during his memorable "Celebrity Hot Tub" skit for SNL. Well, it's definitely both hot and wet at Inman Oasis where massage therapy and hot-soaking are combined, complete with towels, robes, shower products and some hydrating H2O. Check out the "15 Squared" special: for $30 you'll get a 15-minute massage from a certified therapist and then a half-hour soak in one of the communal tubs (which hold up to 8 people).
In close by Porter Square, the simply-titled Beauty Spa Cambridge gets high marks from the folks on yelp! -- and that really counts for something when there's pretty much a business calling itself a spa of some kind on every corner. BSC offers a full-range of facial services, aromatherapy massages, waxing, lash-work and the old spa-standby, nails.
How about some pampering for the pooch? Pet Spa, located right at 669 Somerville Avenue and operated by animal lover Theresa Sammon, is a great local choice for giving your furry friend a little extra lovin'. Plus, there's an entertainment factor that might give your day an amusing perk: the way the spa is designed allows you to watch as your companion gets washed, styled and groomed. Sammon stocks some cool clothes, leashes and styling products to take home as well.
Of course, if you're really just hungry you could always try here or Montrose Spa over the border in Cambridge.

See All
My Communities
My Discussions
My Email Digests
Had a couple of questions thought you might be able to help with. I have an appt. in Sept. with a PA @ an Urologist office and am having some of the same issues that you describe. By the way, your post are very descriptive and helpful. I'm wondering if you were ever prescribed any oral meds for your ED and they didn't work and that is the reason that your Doc put you on an injection?
What is your health condition that caused the ED? Did your Doc actually give you a diagnosis?
I had a stess test around 5 yrs.or less ago and was told that I ranked above average for the age group that I was in, so I don't think that is the issue.
My family Doc gives me the traditional meds to try and they work, but my concern is I'm wondering if there is some other issue going on, that's why I decided to get the opinion of an Urologist. I'm hoping they will be able to come up with a reason, whether it be a physical one or just "mind games".
Not sure what tests I will be going through, but from what you describe, they leave no stone unturned. Thanks for your help and let me know if you would rather talk "off camera" and I can give you an email address or phone #. Thanks again!!
My urologist isn't sure what condition is causing my issues. He did the exam and couldn't find anything wrong, but he did talk about the risk of cardiovascular disease that can go with erectile dysfunction. I do have irregular heartbeats and take meds for those, so he thinks that could have something to do with it. I think part of it might be psychological with me, but that's just a guess.
The lasting power I get with the injections is fantastic, and my wife likes that part. No more worries.
If you get a good urologist, you'll get the exam of your life---at least as far as your private parts go. They have to do that to rule out all the possible issues. I've been on injections for over a year now, and he still examines me VERY thoroughly every time I go. Urologists are kind of like gynecologists for men, in my opinion. With my family doctor, he does the basics only. Cough, cough---and that's the extent of my gential exam. This guy does everything--and more.
I'm kinda suprised that your Doc would put you on injections with being congested and always having a headache, I had always thought that injections were a last resort, not saying that wasn't the right call for you. I'm glad that it is working for you.
I did know that cardiovascular disease can go hand in hand with erectile dysfunction and I certainly have that in my background, both Mom & Dad, and I'm hoping that is not the case with me. Maybe just psychological and if that's the case, I can live with it, but just knowing hopefully that that is all that is wrong I think will be a relief.
I know what you mean with the exam from the primary Doc, mostly the cough thing and you're out the door, so it will be good to have that thoroughly checked out, and I think sometimes the primary Doc has such a tight schedule that time doesn't allow too much detail. He usually checks the testicles and does the prostate exam, but if I want to be checked for a hernia, I have to ask.
One other thing I thought of, did your wife either go in the room with you during the exam or did the Doc have questions for her or were you in there with either the PA of Doc by yourself?
Again, thank you for taking the time to get back with me, you have eased my mind a little, and if don't mind, I'll let you know how things went. Thanks again!!
The primary doc checks me for a hernia, but no testicle check at all, unless I ask for it. I cannot for the life of me understand that. I do self-exams, but I still want a doctor to confirm that I'm good to go. As you said, they're really pressed for time and I've considered seeing a family nurse practitioner who's in the same office as he is to get a more complete exam. If I wasn't seeing a urologist, I would definitely consider it. In fact, I'm due for my annual physical next week and I doubt if he'll do a prostate exam unless I ask him to. I probably will, since I'm 45 and at a higher risk.
The exam isn't horrible. Probably no two urologists are alike, but you'll probably get most of what I got. The bulbocavernosus reflex test can be a little weird, if he does that on you. He's checking for nerve sensation in the penis, according to what he told me. It's a standard test in diagnosing ED. The position at least wasn't embarassing---I only had to face him with my feet apart in a half to three quarters-squatting position while he inserted a finger into my rectum. He squeezes the head of your penis with the other hand.
Good luck with your exam. By all means, let me know how it goes!
The reason I asked about your wife going in with you, I was checking WebMD under the ED help section and that was a possibility according to that article, so didn't know what to expect. My wife is old school and I'm sure she would be embarrassed to death, not to mention myself, but anyway, we'll see what goes.
We'll see what I wind up with, maybe nothing more than what I am doing. If I do wind up with the injections I may call on you for some support, I'm sure they will instruct me on what to do, but it's always nice to talk to someone who is doing the same thing as you.
Many thanks again, and I'll let you know the outcome, don't see him until the 15th of this month, long enough to worry I guess, but you have certainly helped calmed the worries down.
Take care!!
He did talk to me that probably was age related, (I'm almost 65) and I don't expect to perform like a twenty year old, but I was hoping to do a little better than what I am doing. Anything I have read about ED states that age has nothing to do with it, so I don't know.
Because of your heart meds, I'm wondering if that is why your Urologist put you on injections, and maybe I'm just not to that point if the oral meds are working for me, but I'm sure not fond of the headaches and congestion that go with it. Maybe a small price to pay for the benefit.
So for now, I'm with the oral meds, so we'll see. I wasn't too impressed with Cialis, barely got hard, certainly nothing like Viagra and Levitra, so don't know if I will stick with that or not.
A couple of other questions I thought to ask you, if you don't mind, after you have done the injection and you have an erection, does it go down after you have ejaculated or does it still stay hard for awhile? How long does it take to get an erection hard enough to have sex?
I have thought of asking this PA what other choices there are besides the oral meds. I have wondered about a vacuum device, I know Bonro Industry makes one that looks like it may not be too bad, but I don't know of anyone who has used one and if it did the job or not. Then I wonder if you are able to ejaculate with the tension device in place and the orgasm feels the same.
I did find a device at Wal-Mart that did help some, a vibrating ring made by LifeStyles. That added stimulation seemed to help both myself and my wife, so maybe stick with that and the oral meds, and take Tylenol for the headache afterwards.
Thanks for the continued support, just wished I had gotten a better exam, well an exam....period, but maybe his thought was, he wasn't going to waste his time on "this old duffer", who knows??
Thanks again for concern. Take care of yourself
"Life isn't about the breaths you take in and out...,it's the moments that take your breath away."
Viagra had a totally different effect on me. It didn't actually "produce" an erection---it simply relaxed the blood vessels in my penis, which made an erection easier to attain. I---or my wife---had to massage my penis to make it erect. The trimix injection actually makes an erection without any stimulation on my part at all. It's very different....that's the only way I can describe it. But, it works!!
I almost think I would have said something during your app't regarding the lack of an exam. But, then again your PCP may do a good job regarding your physical exam. Mine doesn't----in fact, I was just there a few weeks ago and the guy didn't even do a hernia check. No testicle exam, no hernia check, no prostate or rectal exam, no nothing. That's why I'm glad that the urologist is so thorough with me when I go. Peace of mind, I guess.
Best of luck to you! And you're welcome for the support.
My primary does a good job at physical time, but when I mention something about ED, he askes me what pill I want to try and out the door, so that was my motivation for making an appt. with the PA @ the Urologist, thinking he wouldn't shove a pill at me and I would be done. Unfortunely that wasn't the case, so maybe I shot myself in the foot on that one, who knows??
Oh, I'll give it try for awhile and if I don't feel that this is the answer, I'll make another appt. and see what else there is to try.
I have to commend you for what you go through to have sexual relations with your wife, that stinks for you, but I guess we do what we have to and fortunely it works for you and I'm glad that the injections work so well.
Again, thank you so much for responding to my questions and the very best to you and your wife. Take care of yourself!!
The bulbocavernosus test is explained by txmn1212 very well in your original question of "going to the doctor." Scroll back and read and I think you'll have your question answered. Let me know if you can't find it.

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration State of the Climate National Overview October 2009
Original post made by Hank Lawrence on Nov 10, 2009
Temperature Highlights - October 2009
The average October temperature of 50.8°F was 4.0°F below the 20th Century average and ranked as the 3rd coolest based on preliminary data.
For the nation as a whole, it was the third coolest October on record. The month was marked by an active weather pattern that reinforced unseasonably cold air behind a series of cold fronts. Temperatures were below normal in eight of the nation's nine climate regions, and of the nine, five were much below normal. Only the Southeast climate region had near normal temperatures for October.
Statewide temperatures coincided with the regional values as all but six states had below normal temperatures. Oklahoma had its coolest October on record and ten other states had their top five coolest such months.
Florida was the only state to have an above normal temperature average in October. It was the sixth consecutive month that the Florida's temperature was above normal, resulting in the third warmest such period (May-October).
The three-month period (August-October) was the coolest on record for three states: Nebraska, Kansas, and Oklahoma. Five other states had top five cool periods: Missouri (2nd), Iowa (3rd) , Arkansas (5th) , Illinois (5th) and South Dakota (5th) . Every climate division in Kansas (nine) and Nebraska (eight) recorded a record cool such period.

Cambridge University Press | 2010-08-30 | ISBN: 0521128218 0511776551 | 306 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This easy-to-read book demonstrates how a simple geometric idea reveals fascinating connections and results in number theory, the mathematics of polyhedra, combinatorial geometry, and group theory. Using a systematic paper-folding procedure it is possible to construct a regular polygon with any number of sides.[cut]This remarkable algorithm has led to interesting proofs of certain results in number theory, has been used to answer combinatorial questions involving partitions of space, and has enabled the authors to obtain the formula for the volume of a regular tetrahedron in around three steps, using nothing more complicated than basic arithmetic and the most elementary plane geometry. All of these ideas, and more, reveal the beauty of mathematics and the interconnectedness of its various branches. Detailed instructions, including clear illustrations, enable the reader to gain hands-on experience constructing these models and to discover for themselves the patterns and relationships they unearth.

The Language of Mathematics: Making the Invisible Visible
W. H. Freeman | 2000-03-13 | ISBN: 0716739674 | 344 pages | PDF | 5 MB
Keith Devlin is trying to be the Carl Sagan of mathematics, and he is succeeding. He writes: "Though the structures and patterns of mathematics reflect the structure of, and resonate in, the human mind every bit as much as do the structures and patterns of music, human beings have developed no mathematical equivalent of a pair of ears. Mathematics can be seen only with the eyes of the mind." All of his books are attempts to get around this problem, to "try to communicate to others some sense of what it is we experience--some sense of the simplicity, the precision, the purity, and the elegance that give the patterns of mathematics their aesthetic value."

We are excited to provide this update on Donnie Webb following our recent interview with him.
His agent informed us that Donnie was called up from the Indians minor league camp to the Cleveland Indians big league spring training squad.
In his first at bat in the sixth inning of a shortened intra-squad scrimmage game, Donnie hit a game-winning 3 run home run!
Since that intra-squad game, Donnie has pinch-hit in 4 games with the major league squad and has two hits in four at-bats.
It certainly appears that Donnie has taken right up where he left off at the end of last season when he was called up from Class A Lake County to the Triple A Columbus Clippers.
Congratulations to Donnie on a great start to spring training! We will keep you updated on his development.

Worryingly seems to be the future for Audi, style over substance.
Audi S5 3.0V6T Coupe Black Edition
or they have been enjoying it that much they have run out of fuel ??? lol
red to red black to black blue to bits
I couldn't believe it when I was going back the other way an hour later and the car was still there! As I hadn't seen one of them before I went back and stopped to see it (sad I know) and ask what was wrong. The driver didn't want to say and was pissed off that he'd been waiting on the hard shoulder for 2 hours and Audi still hadn't come to recover it, all that money on a car and he gets a worse service than I do from the RAC. His passenger said he thought it was terminal as something had gone wrong with the engine. Still, even broken, it looked stunning in white at the roadside, so at least the bloke could take pleasure in that.
I wonder how many drove past in their beaten up old cars and smirked.....I would of.
Yes, that was me earlier and I was stopped because of a puncture. I was pissed off because I've paid my road tax which is stupidly high and not only are the roads covered in potholes, but also nails and other dangerous items, and because of this I've got to replace a basically brand new tyre already. Still, its worth it for that car, I absolutely love it and its worth every penny. Your right, it could have been worse at the side of the road, at least I had the car to admire
haha dad nice reliability you got there.... not like in a alfa
it could have been worse - could have had a puncture in a ford escort! If it was a puncture - what was wrong with the emergency tyre repair kit????????

From Sacramento — Gov. Jerry Brown is drafting a ballot initiative that would raise income taxes on the wealthy and hike sales taxes for everyone, insiders say.
Much political finesse is involved. Each step is delicate.
First, the governor must choose taxes that voters might agree to increase. That means, for the most part, taxes paid by someone else. He probably can sell raising taxes on the top 1% of income earners. But he probably cannot peddle income tax hikes on the middle-class and poor.

In the most recent issue of The New Yorker, there is a profile of David Eagleman, a scientist who is studying the gap between time as it exists—the unstoppable, unchanging tick of the cosmic clock—and how we perceive it, as an elastic band that stretches and contracts based on experience and circumstance. He should consider some experiments with middle-aged people and rock clubs; nothing demonstrates our changing perception of time like the difference between midnight when you're 22 and when you're 40.
In an effort to close that gap and fool the physical laws of the universe, Metro Pulse and Pilot Light are teaming up for a new series of monthly (or so) early evening concerts featuring local bands you might otherwise only be able to see well after dark. The first installment of the Metro Pulse Music Hour will be held on Thursday, April 28, at 6 p.m. at Pilot Light in the Old City. The eccentric local electronic chamber pop ensemble Shortwave Society will play, and members of the MP staff will be on hand after their mid-afternoon naps.

Brendan EichJavaScript was created by Netscape programmer Brendan Eich. The web scripting language was first released under the name of LiveScript as part of Netscape Navigator 2.0 in September 1995. It was renamed JavaScript on December 4, 1995.
In "Making Web Pages Come Alive" Brendan Eich said the following about how JavaScript came about:
I came to Netscape in April 1995, after seven years at Silicon Graphics and three years at MicroUnity Systems Engineering. Netscape was about a year old then and was looking for someone to work on a scripting language or some kind of language inside the browser that could be used to automate parts of a web page or make a web page more dynamic. Java had been around for five years at First Person and Sun, and had been retooled for the web in late 1994. Netscape was the first Java licensee, so the issue became: Can we do just Java, or do we need another language?
Brendan Eich was named Web Innovator of the Year by c/net's Builder.com in April 1998.

The only issue i can find that is still really annoying is a slight delay to wake the camera up from sleep.
This cannot be changed as ML is in fact (mis)using Canon's own firmware development hook to load an additional fw from card, and the Canon lab boys don't seem to be that concerned about startup time when working from their desks :-p
Well that's disappointing. I'll need to figure a quick means to disable. Maybe swapping cards will do it. My bald eagles won't wait for ML to load.
