Caching in on Oxford's history
Oxford's Convention and Tourism Bureau is hiding buried treasure which could mean extra cash for businesses. Using geocaching the Oxford Convention and Tourism Bureau hopes to attract more visitors to the area. With an estimated 5 geocachers worldwide this treasure hunting activity is a growing area of tourism, and Oxford is ready with 60 hidden caches. (July 26, 2010, Page 1)

Jobless rate inches up
Just as the temperatures climb in Oxford every summer, so, too, do the numbers of unemployed. As it seems to do nearly every June, the unemployment rate in Lafayette County inched up. The jobless rate climbed from 9.6 percent in May to 9.9 percent in June. (July 23, 2010, Page 5A)
Tourism Council proposes $100K cut
The sluggish economy still has its grip on Oxford tourism. With revenues down this year, the Oxford Tourism Council is planning to cut the 2011 budget by $100,000. Director of Tourism Mary-Kathryn Millner said, "we are being cautious and presenting a budget that is more legitimate as opposed to wishful thinking." (July 22, 2010, Page 5A)

Deer issue divides Oxford
Both sides of the proposed deer management measure will have one last opportunity to voice their views before city leaders vote on Aug. 3. The deer management plan calls for both lethal and non-lethal measures to control the deer population, such as bow-hunting inside the city limits and habitat modification. (July 21, 2010, Page 1)

I have a large R script of, say, 142 small sections. If one section fails with an error I'd like the script to continue rather than halt. The sections don't necessarily depend on each other, but some do. If one in the middle fails that's ok. I'd prefer not to pepper this script with
try() calls. And I'd prefer not to have to split the file up into many smaller files as each section is quite short.
source() could be made to work as if it had been copy and pasted at the R console, that would be great. Or if there was a way to downgrade error to warning, that would be fine too.
Once the script has run I intend to grep (or similar) the output for error or warning text so that I can see all the errors or warnings that have occurred, not just that it has halted on the first error.
I've read
?source and searched Stack Overflow's [R] tag. I found the following similar questions, but
try and
tryCatch were the answers provided :
R Script - How to Continue Code Execution on Error
Is there any way to have R script continue after receiving error messages instead of halting execution?
I'm not looking for
try or
tryCatch for the reasons above. This isn't for R package testing, where I'm aware of the testing frameworks and where many
try() or
test_that() calls (or similar) are entirely appropriate. This is for something else where I have a script as described.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Tiny Mo. town abuzz with $588M Powerball jackpot to be shared with ticket holder in Arizona
DEARBORN, Mo. - The search is on for the country's newest multimillionaires, the holders of two tickets that matched all six numbers to split a record $588 million Powerball jackpot.
Lottery officials said Thursday that the winning tickets matching all six numbers were sold at a convenience store in suburban Phoenix and a gas station just off an interstate highway in a small northwestern Missouri town. Neither ticket holder had come forward.
The mystery fuelled a giddy mood at the Trex Mart just outside Dearborn, Mo., as lottery officials and the media descended on the town of 500 people.
Cashiers Kristi Williams and Kelly Blount greeted customers with big smiles and questions about whether they had bought the winning ticket. No one had come forward to claim the prize by late Thursday morning, Missouri Lottery officials said.
"It's just awesome," Williams said. "It's so exciting. We can't even work."
Karen Meyers, a server at the Cook's Corner Cafe, where the daily special was roast beef and potatoes, said she didn't believe it at first when she heard the winning ticket had been sold nearby.
"I think it's wonderful! I hope someone local won it, not someone just passing through," she said. "It's a small town where everyone is really nice."
Kevin Bryan bought his ticket at the Trex Mart and made an extra trip to his mother's home in Dearborn to verify that the ticket he left on her counter wasn't, in fact, the winner.
"When I heard it was sold here in Dearborn I about fell over," Bryan said, as he hung Christmas lights outside his mother's home.
He said the only other local lottery win he could remember was when an area farmer won about $100,000 in scratch-off game years ago "and bought himself a combine."
The winning ticket sold in Arizona was purchased at a 4 Sons Food Store in Fountain Hills, state lottery officials said. Customers poured into the store, to check their tickets and share in the big moment.
"I think it's crazy, and I also think it's great," said Bob Chebat, who manages the 4 Sons. "I'm glad that all that work yesterday wasn't for nothing."
The store was swept up in a nationwide ticket-buying spree preceding Wednesday's drawing, with the big money enticing many people who rarely, if ever, play the lottery to buy a shot at the payout.
Clerks at 4 Sons sold 986 Powerball tickets Wednesday, which Chebat said was well above average.
Baron Hartell, son of the owner of the Missouri store, said if the winner isn't a local resident it might have been a truck driver. Interstate 29 connects Kansas City to the Canadian border, so it's a busy thoroughfare in both directions.
"Even the truck drivers who come around, we see them every day, so they all feel like all locals to us," he said.
Store manager Chris Naurez said business had been "crazy" for Powerball tickets lately and that the store had sold about $27,000 worth of tickets in the last few days.
"This really puts Dearborn on the map," he said.
Kenny Gilbert, the general manager of Trex Mart, suggested his staff would be sharing in the $50,000 bounty that the store will be awarded for selling one of the winning tickets.
"The response from the owner was, 'I guess we'll be able to give out Christmas bonuses,'" Gilbert said. "That's nice, especially at this time of year."
It appeared the winners had yet to come forward, and it wasn't clear if the tickets had been bought by individuals or groups. Winners have 180 days to claim their share of the prize money.
The numbers drawn Wednesday night were 5, 16, 22, 23, 29. The Powerball was 6. The $587.5 million payout represents the second-largest jackpot in U.S. history.
"If you find you're holding the winning ticket, be sure you sign the back and put it in a safe place until you can take it to a Missouri Lottery office," said May Scheve Reardon, executive director of the Missouri Lottery. "You will also want to get some legal and financial advice before you claim."
Americans went on a ticket-buying spree in the run-up to Wednesday's drawing, the big money enticing many people who rarely, if ever, play the lottery to purchase a shot at the second-largest payout in U.S. history.
Tickets sold at a rate of 130,000 a minute nationwide — about six times the volume from a week ago. That pushed the jackpot even higher, said Chuck Strutt, executive director of the Multi-State Lottery Association. The jackpot rolled over 16 consecutive times without a winner.
In a Mega Millions drawing in March, three ticket buyers shared a $656 million jackpot. This remains the largest lottery payout of all time.
Skoloff reported from Fountain Hills, Ariz.

NORTH SMITHFIELD – In a very-competitive Division III this season, North Smithfield and Shea are among a crowded bunch that will be fighting for the four playoff spots.
Even though the postseason is still more than a month away, there was a playoff-type atmosphere taking place on Wednesday night when the two teams collided at Lovett Gymnasium.
CUMBERLAND – Every game is important for head coach Gary Reedy and his Cumberland High squad, but Tuesday's Division II crossover matchup with host Barrington could have been listed under the must-win category.
The Clippers and Eagles each went into the contest with matching 6-3 league marks, putting them just two victories away from a berth in the open state tournament in March. For Cumberland, it also has the strongest part of its schedule the remaining eight games so a win would certainly give it some added momentum.
PROVIDENCE — Realigning the state's high school football landscape wasn't the only matter discussed at Monday's meeting of the Interscholastic League's Principals' Committee on Athletics (PCOA). Below are a handful of noteworthy developments that came about during the 90-minute open session.
– In boys' soccer, the PCOA unanimously approved an alignment for the 2012 and 2013 seasons that results in Tolman and Woonsocket moving up to Division I. The Villa Novans competed in Division I as recent as 2009, while the Tigers have predominantly resided in Division II.
WEST WARWICK – We hear the phrase "force to be reckoned with" from those involved in athletics so often that sometimes the exact meaning gets lost in the wash.
Tuesday night's Division II showdown against Shea High saw West Warwick High clarify matters. Save for the late scare the Raiders provided, the Wizards provided concrete examples why they figure to be a tough out when the time comes for the open state tournament. With usual suspects John Morrison and Ryan Lawton directing the attack, West Warwick scored a 78-68 win to improve to 10-0 in II-South.
PROVIDENCE – The Woonsocket High School football program is staying put in Division II. In the case of Tolman High, Division I beckons after a successful stint in Division II.
Divisional alignments for several fall sports were ratified and approved at Monday's meeting of the Rhode Island Interscholastic League Principals' Committee on Athletics. In the case of football, Woonsocket will remain in Division II, a league where the Villa Novans have resided since the 2006 season.
BURRILLVILLE --- After suffering its two most lopsided losses of the year late last week, Burrillville got back on track in a big way on Monday night in its Division II-North matchup against Tolman at the Broncodome.
Sophomore forward Victoria Libby overcame a bloody nose she suffered at the start of the second half to pour in 11 points, contribute 12 rebounds and four steals, and help the Broncos produce a foul-plagued 52-43 victory.
PAWTUCKET — If you've attended either a Tolman or Shea game this winter, chances are you've noticed a young man sitting on the bench of each team dressed in street clothes. Starting this week, the wondering will cease and answers pertaining to whom these hoopsters-in-question are will be revealed.
Joe Paterno, who died on Sunday at the age of 85, was the greatest coach I've ever been around. He was a really good human being too, a man who loved his wife, his kids, his 17 grandchildren, more than anything in the world, including his job as head football coach at Penn State.
The first time I ever met Joe, back in my reporting days at The Daily Collegian (Penn State's student newspaper), he called me into his office after we had published an article he found somewhat damaging to the school's reputation.
PROVIDENCE – The Baltimore Ravens aren't the only tough-as-nails outfit to invade Downtown Providence this weekend.
Saturday night saw a Marquette team that has built its reputation as a take-no-prisoners beast basically body slam Providence to the canvas. The punishment took its toll on the Friars, particularly in the second half when Ed Cooley's club could not perform the simple act of putting the ball into the hoop.
It's taken a while, but winter appears to have finally arrived here in New England with the recent snow that has blanked our region.
The weather has been a little different for recent Cumberland High grad and talented golfer Jamison Randall, a freshman at Old Dominion University in Virginia.
"It's better than New England," said Randall, via the phone on Saturday morning. "It's much warmer. In fact, I'm playing golf (today)."
WOONSOCKET --- Michael Kinch's 17th goal of the season, a power-play score with 3:48 to play in the game, helped the Cumberland High hockey team battle the St. Raphael Academy/Providence Country Day/Wheeler co-op team to a 3-3 tie on Friday night in their Division II-North affair at Adelard Arena.
Brendan Kelahan's goal off a pass from Mark Long with 5:21 left in the game actually gave the co-op team a 3-2 lead before Kinch struck for the equalizer.
PAWTUCKET – As good as St. Raphael Academy is, very little comes easy for the defending state champions against the other elite teams in Division I.
After scoring a pair of three-point wins over Central and Classical in the past 10 days, the unbeaten Saints welcomed talented Mount Pleasant to Alumni Hall on Friday night.
The Kilties field their usual fast and athletic group of players. They came out in a box-and-one defense and then a 1-3-1 that focused on limiting the shot opportunities for SRA scoring leaders Charles Correa and Cesar Mejia.
Life, we're often reminded, is a journey along a path. Marked by repeated twists, turns, bends and detours, we take comfort in knowing that each path is unique. No two people ever embark on a similar trek.
No road map, satellite-based navigation system, not even a Mapquest.com printout is required. Following one's heart and ambitions serve as the main motivators, the idea of how we feel deep down aiding us to better grasping the wheel to steer towards one's wants, needs and mindsets. In a nutshell, it's the journey within the journey.
PAWTUCKET — It's been no secret that the numbers game hasn't been too kind to Tolman this season, and that was evident two Friday nights ago when the Tigers suffered a 4-2 loss to Mount Hope at Lynch Arena.
While the Huskies dressed a full complement of players, the Tigers were only able to suit up 11, including a backup goaltender.
That number of players was the lowest of any team (boys or girls) in the state that took the ice for a game this year, but since that night, a couple of positive things took place that promise to make the Tigers' future a little bit brighter.
EAST PROVIDENCE – They are each defending state champions, leaders in the wrestling room, athletes who walk around with an aura of confidence instilled in them by years of practice and ensuing success on the mat, one on one, against the best that can be found in Rhode Island.
PAWTUCKET — Shea High played dictator during Tuesday night's Division II romp over Narragansett. The Raiders dictated how the game would be played and the Mariners followed along, usually a step too slow to keep up with the talented and speedy home team.
Sparked by Eli Itkin's career-high 24 points, and a virtuoso performance by point guard Jordy Brito (18 points, 8 assists), the Raiders romped to a 71-48 victory that improved them to 6-2 in Division II-Central.
SMITHFIELD — Tuesday night proved to be a valuable learning experience for St. Raphael Academy, particularly for the second unit.
With Charles Correa, Cesar Mejia and the rest of the first teamers resting comfortably on the bench, Tom "Saar" Sorrentine turned to Kaseem Sams, Jordan Peguero, Zach and Nick Mays and Darshaun Vargas. The sight of seeing Correa and Mejia sporting warmups and sipping Gatorade must have been heaven to Smithfield, which trailed 59-41 when Sorrentine called off the hounds.
CUMBERLAND — East Providence came out on fire and pushed Cumberland to the brink of dual-meet defeat for the first time in three years on Monday morning before the Clippers turned the tables for an exciting 40-32 conquest of the Townies.
"We came out lazy in the Warwick tournament on Saturday," said Townies' leader Joao Vicente. "Coach (Tom Galligan) warned us we couldn't do that against Cumberland. Today, we came out very warm."
The Townies won five of the first six matches to build a 23-6 advantage.
PROVIDENCE — The state championships for track and field will be held in about a month. It's getting closer to realizing who will be the contenders and who will be the pretenders.
From a local standpoint, a few of those possible contenders for the girls' competition were inside the Providence Career and Technical Academy field house Monday afternoon for their respective divisional meets.
CUMBERLAND — When it came time to wrestle the finals of Saturday night's John D. Gorman Memorial Tournament at Cumberland High, two chairs at matside were occupied by coaches from Bishop Hendricken (Kevin Hennessey) and Warwick Veterans (George Schmeider).
"They're just wrestling junkies," Cumberland coach Steve Gordon said with a laugh on Sunday morning, after his balanced team had captured the team title despite crowning only one individual champion (Tom LaCroix at 195). "Kevin and George probably just wanted to see our boys wrestle. They're scouting, of course, checking us out.

Lovely property just outside the center of Uruapan with a great view of nearby mountains, beautiful pool and grounds, wonderful to have a fireplace in the room. Not a 4-star hotel, but very reasonable for the price. Comfortable king size bed.
It was not a 4-star hotel - bedding a bit frayed for example - but it was well worth the price we paid relative,to other Uruapan hotels. And Uruapan could not be a nicer place to visit.
Here's why:

Appearing in a pre-taped interview on "Good Morning America" on August 14, Sylvester Stallone, 66, spoke for the first time about his son Sage's death. The action star's filmmaker and actor son, 36, was found dead in his California home July 13.
"It's tough. It's very very tough," Sylvester said while promoting "The Expendables 2." "It's a horrible situation, but time, hopefully, will heal and you try to get through it. It's something that's a reality in life."
Focusing on work has helped Sylvester heal, the movie star added. "It's important to get back and try to start reliving your life. Otherwise you can go into a spiral."
Sage, who made his movie debut alongside his father in "Rocky V," was one of two sons from Sylvester's first marriage to Sasha Czack. He was laid to rest on July 21 at St. Martin of Tours Catholic Church in the upscale Brentwood area of Los Angeles. The cause of Sage's death is not yet known.
On August 13, Sylvester and his family -- including wife Jennifer Flavin, 44, and daughters Sophia, 15, Sistine, 14, and Scarlet, 10 -- attended the London premiere of "The Expendables 2." Sylvester's son Seargeoh, 33, was not present.
"The Expendables 2" is in theaters August 17. It also stars Liam Hemsworth, 22, Jason Statham, 44, Jet Li, 49, Jean-Claude Van Damme, 51, Bruce Willis, 57, Arnold Schwarzenegger, 65, Chuck Norris, 72, Terry Crews, 44, and Dolph Lundgren, 54.

Great replacement for the 18-200
By 3rdCamaro
from Denver, CO
Comments about Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f3.5-4.5G ED VR Camera Lens:
I have shot the 18-200 on my D7000 for the last three years, and even though the reviews have been somewhat neutral due to the size and weight of the 18-300, I purchased one. This lens is a tremendous improvement over the 18-200, especially the resolution at the 300 end of the range. I'm very impressed with the image quality, extremely low distortion, and color rendition. I love having a single lens (replacing my 18-200 and 55-300) with this one. I still am keeping my 10-24 superwide zoom, but I think the new 18-300 will be on my D7000 90% of the time. Great work Nikon!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great All Around Travel Lens
By Scripps23
from San Diego, California
During a recent two week trip to Italy's Tuscany and Umbria, I seldom removed this lens from my Nikon D7000 camera body. This lens is amazingly sharp and offers brilliant color and contrast. Below is a photo of the Florence skyline taken with a shutter speed of 1/200 of a second, an aperture of f/7.1, a focal length of 28mm, an ISO of 100, Auto White Balance, and Matrix Metering.
The One Lens to Rule them All!!!
By ABG113
from Green Bay, WI, USA
Instead of going on some Get Away 25th wedding anniversary trip, my amazing husband bought this lens for me. I LOVE IT. I'm able to do everything without switching out lens. I haven't missed a single shot opportunity. It's a keeper! My husband too!

Excellent Lens
By NukePR
from Florida
I really like this lens. I have a D5100 and had been using a Nikon 18-70 and a Nikon 55-300 as my lenses, which I was constantly changing, and in the process losing shots. I bought this about six months ago, and have used it in a variety of situations, including photographing receptions, photographing art show entries, taking pictures in nature, and some really close-up shots where I used it like a macro. It does an excellent job on all of these. It is heavy, but it is a wonderful all-purpose lens that gives the user many options of focal length to capture a wide range of photos.

You'll love it!
By Liberty 4 me
from Dallas, TX, USA
I recently purchased the 18-300 to put on my D5200. I have been amazed. I really love pet portriat & pet action, nature and sunrise/sunset photography. This all-in-one has not let me down. I would switch lenses frequently, and worried about dust getting in the camera. Now, I never have to remove the lens from the camera and I'm always ready for any shot, whether it be a close-up of an flower or a wide angle sunset. It does have a little weight to it, so it won't spend much time just hanging on the strap, you'll want to hold it. It's well worth it... Another thing that I love is the ability to override the autofocus. When the shutter release is pressed half-way and the camera focuses, you can override it and focus manually simply by rotating the focus ring. No switching back & forth from auto to manual. If you can find one in stock, BUY IT! :-) I love the versatility and image quality. THANKS NIKON!

from Undisclosed
What a surprise! It replaces everything i have... The 18-300 is big.. but a lot smaller than the collection of lenses shown in my photo... Amazing. I have compared it to the 80-400 and it looks a little better. It really trumps the 18-200. That has been a great lens for me.. in many trips to Alaska and other fine vacations. The 18-300 is sharper .. nicer color.. and 300 mm. A photo of a bunch of lenses it pretty pitiful, but you can see the color and sharpness of the lens at 300 mm. Now i have to get rid of all these old lens... Amazing innovation. All this for $300 off too!!

Nikkor Lens 18-300mm
By Vince Photography
from Philippines
To be fair, you do get a top-specified lens for your money. It incorporates Nikon's 'Silent Wave Motor' for focusing, and is one of the few superzooms that allows focus to be tweaked manually when set to autofocus (like its little brother, the AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II). It also includes Nikon's 'VR II' optical image stabilization, which promises the ability to shoot handheld at shutter speeds four stops slower than usual without your images being ruined by camera shake.

One lens does do it all!
By John in Black Hawk
I recently purchased the 18mm-300mm DX lens to mount on my D300s. To put it simply, "I love this lens!" I have been shooting with various Nikon cameras for over 40 years! I have lugged up to 65lbs of camera equipment on frequent trips to Alaska and, quite frankly, I'm getting too old to do that anymore. When I started shooting with the 18mm-300mm zoom, I was awe struck with the ease of use, the moderate weight and the images are what I have grown to expect from my Nikon lenses. This is the only lens I need to take with me - it focuses to about 16" at ALL of the zoom ranges! There is nothing else like it on the market. Yes, it's hefty #just under 3 lbs# and yes, it's expensive #$999.95# but it's the only lens you'll need for a very wide variety of subjects. Ask yourself this, "What are my photos really worth?" If I could have had a lens like this a couple of decades ago I wouldn't have had to haul all those lenses! This is a spectacular lens and it transformed my D300s into a highly desireable camera. Nikon has done it again! They have eclipsed the competition and made this old photographer a very happy camper! Well done!

Great range, Good Quality
By Serious About Photos
from Louisiana
This lens has a great range with very little distortion or vignetting. Every lens has some compromise and this lens is no exception. The compromise is on speed and sharpness. While both of those qualities are still in the good range they do not meet the performance of Pro lenses like the Nikon 70-200 2.8 lens. For general shooting or for a single lens trip this is probably the best compromise you can get. It is not however the lens you want to use for critical work such as portrait photography or if you are a serious sports photographer but these people already know this. If giving up a bit on sharpness or speed is acceptable to get the fantastic range this lens offers then you won't go wrong. Also if your budget keeps your lens selection to just a few lenses then this is also a good choice. If you already own other high quality 2.8 Nikon zoom lenses then you should prepare for the fact this will not match those but again neither does the price. I did a side by side comparison with my Nikon 70-200 2.8 lens using my D600 camera. I will post one of each here and you can decide for yourself which is which. Both are very good but one certainly better than the other if shown at 100%.

Making my first batch with Cal Lag Yeast (4th batch of beer overall). My big question is on clarity. I know I made my first mistake by dumping everything from the boil (solid remnants of hops) into the fermenter. The yeast seems to be thriving - a constant release of gas at 60 degrees F. However there is a lot solid material that seems to be constantly flowing from top to bottom in the fermenter. There also seems to be a lot of yeast growing on the inside walls of the fermenter. My question is - is this normal? And if not what can I do to fix it?
All you have to do is rack the beer into a secondary vessel for clarification. Let the beer complete the fermentation, take a hydrometer reading to be certain, then let it sit for a couple of days so the particles can settle on the bottom. When you rack the beer make sure to leave all the trub of the bottom in the primary, just get the beer on top of the sediment. Use a 5 gallon carboy because you will be able to check the beer to see whether it's clear or not, and because there will be less surface area for any oxygen to oxidize the beer. You will probably have to leave the beer for 2-4 weeks to clear. Colder temperatures will speed up yeast flocculation and make the beer crystal clear.
thanks for the advice. My next question is, during secondary fermentation do i keep the temperature the same - around 60? i f not, what should i drop it to?
You can keep them around 60F, but since the yeast will settle out at lower temperatures there is no point. Holding the beer at around 45-50F for two weeks should really clear it up, allow the flavors to blend and make it smoother. If you can't go that low, take it down as low as you can. Either way I'm sure the beer will be great.
Oh, and welcome to the forum!
also for what its worth look at the yeast websight for the type of yeast your using and see if that yeast is going to benifit from a dycetial rest.

The Sports Network
DATE & TIME: Monday, November 25, 5 p.m. (et)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Alumni Gym (1,607) -- Elon, North Carolina. Television: None. Home Record: Canisius 1-0, GSU 1-0. Away Record: Canisius 0-2, GSU 0-2. Neutral Record: Canisius 1-0, GSU 1-0. Conference Record: Canisius 0-0, GSU 0-0. Series Record: First-ever meeting.
GAME NOTES: Consolation round action of the NIT Season Tip-Off is on tap this evening at Elon, as the Canisius Golden Griffins take on the Georgia State Panthers.
Canisius will take on Metro State to close out tournament play on Tuesday, while Georgia State will battle host Elon.
The Golden Griffins are 2-2 on the young season and split games in earlier rounds of this event, losing to Rutgers (66-51), before topping Elon (86-85) last week.
The Panthers are also 2-2 on the year, and split their two games in the NIT thus far, routing McNesse State (96-70), before getting routed themselves by Alabama (75-58).
This marks the first-ever meeting between these two teams.
Canisius shot a sterling .577 from the floor and needed every basket, as the team edged out Elon in Piscataway last week to even its record at 2-2. Billy Baron had a strong game, leading the Golden Griffins with 21 points. Fellow guard Chris Perez added 17 points, while forward Chris Manhertz tacked on nine.
The Golden Griffins have struggled in the early going offensively. The team is averaging a decent 68.0 ppg, but doing so on a mere .408 shooting. The real problem is the team is allowing 75.8 ppg for a -7.7 scoring margin. Also problematic is the team's inability to control the boards, getting outrebounded by 9.5 caroms per contest. Baron is the primary option at the offensive end, averaging 22.0 ppg. He has really made teams pay the price for sending him to the free-throw line (25-of-27). Perez is a distant second in the scoring column at 11.0 ppg, with the scoring pool drying up fast after that.
Georgia State has had very few problems filling up the basket this year, averaging an impressive 82.8 ppg thus far, on a solid .465 shooting. The problem is that opponents have had similar success (77.2 ppg, .441 efficiency). Scoring depth is apparent with four of the five starters averaging double digits for the Panthers. R.J. Hunter leads the way with 18.0 ppg. Ryan Harrow is next in line with 15.8 ppg, followed by Devonta White and Manny Atkins at 12.5 an 11.0 ppg, respectively.
The Panthers are coming off their worst offensive performance of the young season, as the Crimson Tide stymied the GSU attack to just 58 points and 40 percent shooting. Rashaad Richardson led the team offensively off the bench with 16 points. Atkins was the only other Panther in double figures with 14 points.
Neither of these teams play much defense, so this could be a high-scoring affair. That will favor the Panthers, who simply have more weapons.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Georgia State 77, Canisius 73

Just so you know i got no problem with the USA fighting the Taliban,those guys need to be put down like rabid dogs.. But if you are going after them please kill them all. Cause for some reason they are running into my country and they are raising hell with the islamic minority here. basically they would incite riots and train them to fight us. Hell we had to turn half a town into a parking lot all in the mean while your media is calling us mass murders.So please America just bomb, shoot, or what ever you guys do,please just kill them cause they're like rats coming into our house now.

The Taliban are one strain of islamic fundamentalists; there are many others. The longer civilized countries around the world ignore the efforts of jihadis, the worse off we will all be.
And if the worst should happen -- if nuclear weapons are acquired by these animals -- it will make World War II look like a walk in the park.
Many people are very surprised to learn there are groups and individuals linked to terrorist organizations and there are paramilitary training camps all throughout the United States. If they are here, we can be sure they are literally everywhere.
(pronounced "lan astaslem" and means "I will not submit")
I have to agree with bkt - The Taliban, while horrible, are not the only, nor the root cause, of the issue. Getting rid of them will help, but it will not end the attacks, the recruiting or bring peace to anything.
Islam itself needs to be directly pointed at and exposed for what it is - a genocidal program disguised as a religion to gain acceptance.
You can't reason with, or make a treaty with, a group of people who's whole goal is the complete eradication of everyone who isn't "with" them.
If you take a look at history, you will see each time it's tried, it hasn't worked out so well for the group looking for peace.
This country won't "do it right". It hasn't won a war or a conflict since the end of WWII. Hell, if they listened to Patton we would never have had a cold war. Look at Korea and Vietnam....no, we won't get it right., and if Obama gets elected it will get much worse.
Well guys I could turn this into a long rant , but I wont I'll keep it short and sweet and to the point .
The real problem here is no one in any government is going to take a firm stance against right and wrong , friend or foe because of all of the favors they owe to get elected to big business and their partys .
When it's all boiled down everyone doesn't want to offend anyone even if they are trying to kill them because they are perhaps future customers to business or future constituents and Votes for them to gain power .
In the end despite the rhetoric spewed by people like McCain he is going to compromise or "Reach across the isle" and work with those destroying us until the job is done .
All of the major Nations with the exception of those ruled with an Iron fist are in the control of fools now .
"When it's all boiled down everyone doesn't want to offend anyone even if they are trying to kill them because they are perhaps future customers to business or future constituents and Votes for them to gain power ."
Perfect, summed it all up in one sentence. Kudos Big0o1.
"People live too long, dogs don't live long enough" - FTF Member-
Might a coordinated attack against multiple Western cities not give the politicos sufficient cause to act? Americans would be pretty ticked off if they did not act, and as BigO01 points out, those in office care about their poll numbers.
It says a lot that it would take a catastrophic, coordinated attack to gin up the testicular fortitude to do the right thing.I would remind you that extremism in defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue! -Barry Goldwater
Wasn't 9/11 a catastrophic coordinated attack? I thought is was. Where is the fervor today? Pretty short-lived testicular fortitude! On the contrary, instead of killing every last Islamo terrorist that so much as burns an American flag, we want to give them their "day in court" and prosecute our own military for war crimes!!!! This country has no testicles anymore - we've been "fixed".

In sharp contrast to the festive mood in Brussels, the Kremlin is warning that today's Ukraine-EU trade deal signing will lead to 'serious consequences' for Kiev.
Though Ukraine signed a trade deal with the EU amid much fanfare, the accompanying reforms and regulations are sure to bring much short-term pain for the struggling country.
Though Angela Merkel has been outspoken for Ukraine, which signed an EU trade deal today, Germany's complicated relationship with Russia clouds its commitment to Kiev.
Russia and Austria's gas companies signed a pact on the Austrian portion of the South Stream pipeline, helping the Kremlin defang Western energy-sanction threats.
Vladimir Putin today asked Russia's parliament to repeal the March 1 resolution that allowed him to send troops to Ukraine, as peace talks continue in the troubled country.
A Ukrainian oligarch may have convinced Putin that President Petro Poroshenko's peace plan is 'an important step towards reaching a final settlement' in the east.
The tiny Baltic nation has unique experience with oil shale, a sedimentary rock that provides all of Estonia's electricity – and keeps it from depending on Russia for power.
Moscow gave guarded approval to the Ukrainian president's plan. But rebel opposition, military realities, and even resistance from western Ukrainians undermine its prospects.
A peace plan announced by Ukraine's president earlier this week may not get off the ground, as fighting continued with pro-Russian separatists in parts of the country's east.
Thousands of Tatars have fled their homeland in the Crimean peninsula since it was annexed by Russia. But what do they do now?
Petro Poroshenko said today that the unilateral cease-fire will launch a peace process that includes decentralization of power to the regions.
A Ukrainian oligarch has offered $136 million to build a six-foot high wall to keep Russian support from flowing through Ukraine's porous border.
President Poroshenko has effectively ended $15 billion in arms contracts that keep Russia's military in the air and Ukraine's defense industry employed.
Kiev owes Gazprom billions in unpaid gas bills. But the Ukraine-Russia gas wars have taken a toll on Europe's confidence in Russia as an energy supplier.
Leaders from across Europe and America have gathered in Normandy today to mark the 70th anniversary of D-Day – even as Europe and Russia are at loggerheads, and anti-EU sentiments rise.
The first meeting between Obama and Ukrainian President-elect Petro Poroshenko comes on a key date in Polish history – and marks Poland's growing influence in Europe.
Russia's state gas company delayed its threatened suspension of shipments to Ukraine today, even as the Kremlin appeared to ramp up its backing of rebellious eastern Ukraine.
Russian fighters are among the separatist forces battling Ukraine's poorly equipped military for control of eastern provinces. A pullback of Moscow's troops could defuse tensions with the West.
The new bloc, which joins Russia, Kazakhstan, and Belarus, has vast economic potential. But the fallout from Ukraine's crisis have already hurt the union, and could chill its further growth.
Ukraine's military proved impotent during the Russian annexation of Crimea, and has been struggling to deal with pro-Russia rebels in eastern Ukraine.
Ukraine's president-elect is broadly regarded as pragmatic, but with Putin looking to block Kiev's westward tilt and end its military operations in the east, a deal with Russia may be hard to come by.
Petro Poroshenko, the president-elect, faces a major battle on the global stage between the West and Russia. But first he is headed to his country's east to try to stem a separatist thrust.
Petro Poroshenko's victory in Sunday's election appears decisive, a rarity in the fractured nation, but he – and Ukraine – still face huge obstacles politically and economically.
Ukrainians will choose a new president today, against the backdrop of Europe's worst geopolitical crisis in a generation.
Russia's leader said he would work with whomever the Ukrainian people choose on Sunday to be president, though he added that Ukraine must not join NATO.

LOOKING for: Bacon Recipes
Would you have any favorite bacon recipes - I'm thinking maybe appetizer style recipes? Something that can be made a day ahead and carried in a cooler in the car and reheated?
This is for a bacon loving granddaughter - the others are getting their favs (peppermint bark for one and chocolate peanut butter crackers for the other) but this one is a bacon loving gal and I thought I'd bring something bacony on my visit this coming weekend.
This one is served at room temperature so would probably travel OK.
1/2 lb. bacon, sliced
1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1 Tbs. Dijon mustard
2 Tbs. red wine
Place the bacon in a large baking pan and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes or until slightly crisp. Drain the fat off. Mix the remaining ingredients together thoroughly, then pour over the bacon. Bake at 350 degrees until it bubbles, making sure bacon glaze is covering both sides, approx. 10 minutes.
Remove the bacon from the pan and place on wax paper or aluminum foil. Cut the bacon slices in half, if desired. Do not refrigerate or cover, but let sit at room temperature until ready to serve. It should be dry to the touch, not sticky. If it is limp or sticky, bake a bit longer, about 2 minutes.
At a party last year, someone made those classic slice and bake cheddar cheese coins but used bacon grease for part of the butter in the recipe and added the crumbled bacon along with the cheese to the dough. Mmmmmmm!
This can be made ahead & then baked when you get there:
HOT BACON & SWISS DIP )serves 8-10)
8 oz pkg cream cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 cup grated Swiss cheese
2 TBL chopped green onion
6 slices bacon, cooked & crumbled
1/2 cup crumbled Ritz crackers
Preheat oven to 350°. soften the cream cheese in a mixing bowl. Add the mayo, cheese & green onion; mix well. Transfer mixture to a baking dish. Top w/bacon & crushed crackers. Bake 15-20 minutes or until bubbly. Serve w/toast points or crackers.~~Food for Thought
STUFFED CHERRY TOMATOES (serves 12)
12 oz bacon
1 cup mayonnaise
1 green onion top, finely chopped
Pepper to taste
2 pints cherry tomatoes
Fresh chives, cut into 1" strips
1 pint alfalfa sprouts (for the serving platter)
Fry the bacon in a skillet until crisp; drain. Crumble the bacon. Combine the bacon, mayo, green onion & pepper in a bowl & mix well. Chill, covered for 1 hour. Cut the top from each tomato & discard. Remove the seeds & pulp carefully, leaving a shell. Invert the tomato shells on a paper towel to drain. Arrange the tomatoes cut side up in a dish. Gill with the bacon mixture. Place the chive strips decoratively in the tomatoes. Spread the sprouts on a serving platter; arrange the stuffed tomatoes over the sprouts.~~TX Ties
I love the Philly cream cheese breads...you probably had them...take a firm bread ( i use pepperidge farms) smear the bread with room temp cream cheese fold over in a triangle and cut in half so you get two triangles take a piece of bacon cut in half and wrap around one trinangle and continue...tray bake until golden....we love these
I can remember going out with Gram to pick dandelion greens in early spring-- & have used this dressing for years-- goes best with a bitter green tho I love it on a big wedge of iceberg too. Keeps well in frig then just reheat in micro
Diane's Home Cookin Chapter: Heirlooms , Traditional & Ethnic
Gram Lynch's Hot Bacon Dressing
5 pieces of bacon and drippings
1-1/2 cups water
2 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons vinegar
5 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon mustard
lots of black pepper
. Fry the bacon and remove from the pan. Pour out about half of the
drippings. Mix the water, flour, vinegar, sugar, mustard and black
pepper together in a bowl. Add the mix to the remaining bacon drippings
in the pan and cook over medium heat until thick. You may need to
adjust the sugar to taste the dressing should be sweet enough to
counter the bitterness of the greens your using(dip a leaf in the
dressing to test the taste). Pour the dressing over the greens while
still hot. Crumble the bacon on top.
( Gram always used this dressing on dandelion greens & then garnished
with chopped hard boiled egg).
I haven't tried this yet but am planning to make it for my next party. Looks good.
Spinach, Artichoke, and Bacon Dip BH&G
2 10-oz. packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
12 slices bacon
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 6-oz. jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped. (I prefer non-marinated hearts)
1 8-oz. carton light sour cream
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
Squeeze spinach to remove as much liquid as possible.
Cook bacon until crisp; drain and crumble; set aside - reserve 1 T. bacon drippings in skillet.
Add shallots to skillet, cook until golden. Add garlic and cook for a minute or so. Stir in artichoke hearts and spinach. Add sour cream, mayonnaise, and pepper. Cook and stir over medium heat just until heated through. Stir in bacon.
Stuffed jalapeno poppers. Half jalapenos lengthwise, seed, stuff each half with cream cheese and stuff the pepper halves with it, wrap with bacon and bake at 350 until bacon is done. Everyone loves these. Especially good if you add some baby shrimp or crab to the cream cheese!
Haven't tried this one but it sounds interesting:
Frozen Peanut Butter Pie with Candied Bacon
Active time:30 min Start to finish:6 1/2 hr (includes freezing)
Candied bacon might seem like the ultimate example of gilding the lily, but it adds a sweet, smoky edge to this already luscious pie. Elvis would be proud.
7 bacon slices (about 6 ounces)
3/4 cup sugar, divided
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
About 35 chocolate wafers, finely ground in a blender or food processor (about 2 cups crumbs)
3/4 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 cup milk
1 cup creamy peanut butter (not natural)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups chilled heavy cream
1/3 cup salted roasted peanuts, finely chopped
Equipment:a 10-inch pie plate (6-cup capacity)
Cook bacon (in 2 batches if necessary) in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, turning once, until lightly browned on edges but still flexible, 5 to 6 minutes total per batch. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
Pour off fat from skillet and arrange bacon in skillet in 1 layer. Sprinkle 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon over bacon and cook over low heat, turning occasionally with tongs, until sugar has dissolved and then caramelized (sugar melts very slowly and burns easily; reduce heat if necessary after sugar begins to caramelize) and coats bacon, 8 to 10 minutes. (Bacon will be dark and look lacquered.) Transfer bacon with tongs to a cutting board to cool. When bacon is cool, finely chop 5 slices, leaving remaining 2 slices whole.
Stir together wafer crumbs and butter, then press onto bottom and up side of pie plate. Chill pie shell.
Heat remaining 1/2 cup sugar and milk in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and whisk in peanut butter and vanilla until combined well, then transfer to a bowl and cool completely in an ice bath, stirring occasionally.
Beat cream with an electric mixer until it just holds stiff peaks, then fold into peanut butter mixture with peanuts and chopped bacon gently but thoroughly. Transfer filling to pie shell, smoothing top.
Cut remaining 2 bacon slices into 2-inch-long pieces and arrange in a decorative starburst shape in center of pie. Freeze pie, uncovered, until frozen hard, about 5 hours. Let pie soften slightly in refrigerator before serving, about 30 minutes.
Cooks note:
Pie can be frozen, covered after 5 hours with plastic wrap and foil, up to 2 days.

How about bacon wraped water chesnuts. Take the whole chesnuts, wrap in bacon and cook on 350 until crisp but not over done. In the meantime, heat one bottle of favorite BBQ sauce and brown sugar. The sugar is about 1 cup, but do it to taste. simmer this and when bacon is done, poor sauce over bacon wraps. I use tooth picks to hold it together.
Woodie this is a very retro "recipe" but they are so good! Not sure that the sardines would be on your DG's top 10 list but honestly you can't discern their taste as such.
I have also done these with a shrimp "paste" that was very well received. I just mashed up cooked shrimp with some seafood sauce and proceeded as described.
Mash a tin of sardines packed in tomato sauce, or any other of the sauces they are packed in that float your boat... just not plain sardines,
Cut bacon slices in half, spread with the paste, roll up and skewer with a toothpick.
Bake in a hot oven ( 425 ish) until almost done.
Drain on paper towels.
When ready to serve throw under the broiler, turning once, until they are nice and crisp.
hmmmmm. may have to do a few retro treats this holiday season.......maybe add in a cheese ball and cheese cubes stuck with toothpicks on a pineapple! ! LOL
Here's an oldie I almost forgot about. You can make ahead up to the point of baking.
10 slices whole wheat bread cut into thirds
1 cup grated Cheddar
8 slices bacon, cooked & crumbled
3-4 TBL mayo
1 TBL onion, grated
1/2 tsp celery salt
Mix together the last 5 ingredients. spread on bread slices & bake in a preheated 325° oven for 10 minutes.~~Pass the Plate
Look at what Alexa posted on the CF!!!
Here is a link that might be useful: Bacon Chocolate Bark
Spread a strip of bacon with grainy mustard. Cut bacon strips in half. Wrap around halved or quartered canned artichoke hearts, (depending on the size). Bake or broil til bacon is cooked and crispy.
These have been quite popular whenever I have made them.
Shelley S.
Thanks to all for lots of great recipes! I came back from visiting the bacon girl and everybody loved the praline bacon that I made, but she told me later that she likes it plain, LOL. But she was happy anyway that I tried to make something special for her :)
I've saved all of the recipes in my files, yummo.

Vegetable PH at 7
I just got the soil tested for the new vegetable garden and it was at ph7. We live in central FL with sandy and clay soil mix. Should I put in any additive to bring the soil to ph 5-6? Will adding fertilizer change the ph level?
Did you add anything to the soil before you had it tested? Is it close to a lot of concrete?
Clay? Have you looked on your county property appraiser map at soil levels to see what soil type is labeled for your property?
Sorry, I know .. lots of questions.
Fertilizer generally does not change PH. Lime will raise PH. Pine needles/bark and oak leaves will lower PH.
Actually, 7 is pretty neutral so I wouldn't worry about PH too much. What I would worry about is getting lots of organic material into your veggie bed to hold the nutrients the veggies will need.
gardengimp Nothing was added to the soil before it was tested. The house is about 4 feet from where the soil was tested. So yes a lot of concrete. It looks like we are mostly clay with a fair sprinkle of sand. So should I just add the organic matter and let the soil go for the vegetables?
Thanks for the help

HAVE: Lychee Seedlings
Hello all,
I am not sure this is a good time to be posting this, but I wanted to get it out there so folks can think about it.
I have an Asian Supermarket close to my house and I go there occasionally to find new and exotic fruit to try and get seeds from.
I hit the jackpot with lychees! I remember them as a child when I would go to the Chinese restaurant. That is what I wanted for dessert, they were fantastic! So, of course, now that I am a plant freak, I am trying to grow my own. Well, I think just about every seed I have planted germinated. I have some in the greenhouse and some inside the house, just in case it got too cold out in the GH. It has actually fallen to 32 in there a couple of nights and they look great.
I have probably close to a dozen plants that I can swap with.
I am really looking for Starfruit (Averrhoa carambola). I am also looking for Jaboticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora) if anybody happens to have some small seedlings, I am sure we can work out a trade.
If you happen to have any other unusual fruit seedlings, I have a bunch of some really oddball stuff, so you may offer something I already have. Please don't feel offended if I decline, I have a very limited space.
I would love to hear from you and what you may have to offer.

Gulf States Unveil Solution to Red Snapper Management
Sportfishing and boating community welcomes state-based management approach
Sportfishing and boating community welcomes state-based management approach
Recreational fishing industry is asking anglers to properly dispose of soft plastic baits.
Recreational fishing industry is hopeful the policy will bring about much-needed on-the-water improvements.
Sportfishing industry is optimistic about chances for passage
Unfortunately, because some anglers toss their used baits into the water, they are collecting on the bottom of lakes and rivers. And that's causing problems.
The RFS was intended to steer the U.S. towards a clean energy future, but it instead has yielded questionable results and unintended impacts.
Here are some of the top issues that have emerged recently that we at KeepAmericaFishing believe will be major attention-getters in 2015.
Interesting article by Marcus Schneck that discusses the soft bait issue and our Pledge to Pitch It campaign.
Another year has passed and I sit here and wonder: where did it go? And, more importantly – why didn't I catch more fish?
