ARKADELPHIA, Ark. – In a game that somewhat mirrored Thursday's conference opener, the Savage Storm erased a double-digit deficit only to run out of gas and fall to Ouachita Baptist 81-74 on Saturday afternoon in Arkadelphia, Ark.
The loss dropped SE to 1-5 overall on the season and 0-2 in Great American Conference play as the team will now return home for a three-game home stand that begins with a conference matchup against Arkansas tech at 5:30 p.m. on Dec. 6 in Bloomer Sullivan Arena.
"The first half was identical to Henderson and Commerce," said head coach Darin Grover, "Where we had a complete breakdown on both sides of the ball. We dug ourselves in a hole and those holes are tough to dog out of."
"I was proud of the way they fought back," Grover continued, "But you can't get down that much and expect to win too many games."
It was another rough shooting night for the Storm as the team finished at 35.6 percent from the field, however the defense stepped up and held OBU to just a 37.7 percent shooting mark.
Neither team was hitting from long range as each club made just one three in the game, however both teams spent plenty of time on the free throw line as they combined to shoot 71 free throws in the game. SE finished at 86.1 percent, hitting 31-of-36, while the Tigers hit 80.0 percent or 28-of-35.
The difference in the game came on the offensive glass where OBU turned 18 offensive rebounds into a 24-9 advantage in second chance points.
Bailey Welch turned in her second-straight 20-point performance, finishing at 20 points exactly on the strength of a 10-for-10 effort from the charity stripe.
Ronay English added a 16 point outing off the bench, while Emily Williams and Haley Schaefer each chipped in nine points to add to the bench production.
Welch also led the team in rebounds with six, while Schaefer, Taylor Richards and Shelby Hill each chipped in five.
Welch and English each finished with a pair of assists.
The first half did not go well for the Storm as the Tigers took the early lead and slowly pulled away, eventually pushing its lead out to double digits.
A quick spurt late would get SE to within six points on a Cheree Kiser jumper, but OBU would answer with a 9-0 run to lead 39-24 with 1:07 to play in the half.
Southeastern would end the half with a 7-2 run capped by a Kayle Reaves three pointer to end the half trailing 41-31.
OBU came out and pushed its lead back out to 15 points before the Storm used a 9-0 run capped by a pair of Welch free throws to trim the deficit to 48-42 with 14:45 to play.
The Tigers would hit a free throw and SE would pick up the momentum again with an 8-0 run that ends with a pair of Reaves free throws that put the Storm in front 50-49 for its first lead of the game.
The teams would trade buckets and would sit tied at 52-52 with 11:11 to play.
The Tigers would use nine-straight points to take control of the game and a 61-52 lead with 9:54 remaining.
SE would get it back to a five point deficit, but OBU would answer by pushing its lead back out to double figures at 75-64 with 3:49 to play.
The Storm would score the next six points and would trail 75-70 with 2:50 to play on a Welch jumper.
The deficit would shrink to four points with less than a minute to play on a pair of Welch free throws, but SE would get no closer as OBU would hold off the charge for the 81-74 win.

Bob and I had a question come in this week from a reader who wants to identify a structure on the wall behind the bar in several western shows and movies including the Long Branch on "Gunsmoke". I watch the show on a regular basis but haven't spotted it so I thought I'd toss it out to you and ask for your help. I hate to admit it but this might be first time in a dozen years I've been stumped. Here's what she describes:
"I've seen something that puzzles me which you might be able to identify. It looks like several tubes making a shape similar to a large crown. It doesn't seem to have any spigots, and the number of tubes does vary. Can you identify this for me? Joyce."
golly....gonna have to have a picture before I could weigh in on it........lethalrancher
Yep, I've watched several episodes hoping to see it......Maybe I'm too busy looking at Miss Kitty.
I think I've spotted it. I googled "Miss Kitty Gunsmoke" images and found these two photos. (see below.) It must be that contraption behind the bar on the left of the picture of Chester and Miss Kitty, and on the right of the one with Marshal Dillon walking to the bar.. It appears to be a fancy metal rack of shelving (perhaps a revolving carousel?) for holding whiskey bottles.
Hi Murray, Yep, that's gotta be what she's asking about. Now we need to see what it's used for. I know everything's up to date in Kansasbut Did they serve latte outta that thing????
Great shot in color Gay. Got any idea what it is? Now I know why I never noticed the gadget. Those great looking gals had me totally distracted.
I'm still befuddled. It doesn't look like it has anything to do with booze and beer.
These are the clearest photos yet. Anybody out there got any thoughts on what that thing is?

An Erratic Lane Change Tends To Lead To A Catastrophic Lane Change Advises Experienced Philadelphia Car Accident Attorney
How many times have you been driving down a highway or street when someone cuts in front of you at a high rate of speed and you narrowly avoid an accident. If you avoid an accident you are one of the lucky ones because many times fatal and catastrophic injuries are caused by unsafe driver actions such as an improper or erratic lane change.
In a study prepared for the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety by Lydia P. Kostyniuk, Frederick M. Streff, and Jennifer Zakrajsek of the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute unsafe driver action conditions that were most likely to cause fatal crashes between cars and trucks were addressed as well as the identification of strategies for educating motorists in safe driving practices. (http://www.aaafoundation.org/pdf/CarTruck.pdf). While the study is limited in that it did not address non-fatal crashes, single vehicle crashes, or crashes involving more than two vehicles, the study identifies probability and analyses techniques realizing information about pre-crash actions of drivers based upon police observations, post-crash scene, and unsworn testimony of survivors and other witnesses. The study concluded five likely factors contributing to an accident:
1. Failing to keep in the lane;
2. Failing to yield the right of way;
3. Driving too fast for conditions or in excess of the posted speed limit;
4. Failing to obey traffic and control devices and laws; and
5. Inattentive or distracted drivers.
Additionally four factors out of 94 were found to be more likely to occur in fatal car/truck crashes than in fatal car/car crashes:
1. Following improperly;
2. Driving with vision obscured by rain, snow, fog, sand, or dust;
3. Drowsy or fatigued driving;
4. Improper lane change.
The study noted that drowsy or fatigued driving and following improperly were more likely to be reported for male than female car drivers, car drivers in crashes where their vision was obstructed tend to be older than other drivers, car drivers who were drowsy/fatigued were likely to be younger than other drivers, and younger drivers were more likely than older drivers to follow improperly, speed, and use alcohol or drugs.
The experienced Philadelphia car accident and Philadelphia truck accident lawyers of Reiff and Bily have joined a national campaign to educate students and drivers in safe practices and must emphasize that mistakes or erratic driving or erratic changing of lanes often comes at a cost with serious consequences.

My very first Kipling bag
By Magda Sowa
from Ansonia, CT
About Me Comfort-Oriented, Modern, Practical, Student, Stylish
Comments about Kipling Sugar Small Handbag:
First of all, lemme just start of saying that I love Kipling. Their bags are just about the cutest things I have ever seen, especially the monkey that comes with the bag. I have had this bag for a very long time and it still looks brand new. It's very long lasting and durable...just the brand overall. I love the fabric in it and all the compartments it has. It's so roomy and I have enough room to put all my things into each of the sections. I have mine in almost a kiwi color and I think it was one of the first to come out because I don't see that color anymore. Unfortunately I got mine as a gift, but it didn't have a monkey so I had to buy it. But now the bag looks complete with the monkey attached to it(even though it's not a green monkey). Highly recommend this bag to others. It's cute and stylish and it's very comfortable too. I pack my bag until its full and it doesn't look like it is and it's still really lightweight.

Building Linux Clusters
Author: David H. M. Spector
Publisher: O'Reilly & Associates
URL: http://www.ora.com/
Price: $44.95 US
Reviewer: Glen Otero
Ever since I started using Linux two years ago, I've wanted to build a cluster. During the early days of Linux self-instruction, I scoured the Internet for clustering information, looking forward to the day that I would be able to run a parallel computer in my own home. Everything I read on the subject made it sound like clustering with Linux was straightforward, almost simple. But it was slow going for a newbie, and I didn't get very far. Clustering information was dispersed all over the Internet, and I couldn't make a cohesive whole out of it. I was elated when Sterling, Salmon, Becker and Savarese published How to Build a Beowulf. I figured I was set. I bought five computers with AMD 400MHz K6s in anticipation of my homemade supercomputer. Alas, the book was very informative but lacked the one thing I had trouble finding everywhere else: the software for the cluster installation. I was stuck.
The moment I discovered that O'Reilly was going to publish Building Linux Clusters I ordered the book. The advertisement claimed that the book would contain the software to build a cluster. I was saved. But I had months to wait for its arrival, so I planned and schemed about the really cool things I would do with my cluster, and I don't mean just crunching DES keys.
I was at the O'Reilly Open Source Software conference in Monterey, California, July 2000, when I discovered that O'Reilly was going to ship the title to the meeting. Two days later, I had what I hoped was the Beowulf grail in my greedy little hands, with a 20% off promotional discount to boot. In Monterey, separated from the boxes I wanted to turn into a cluster, I jammed through the 280 odd pages of Building Linux Clusters in under 24 hours. It had everything I, or anyone else, would ever need. I was ecstatic.
The material covered in the first four chapters is well written and designed to ease newbies into the waters. Topics covered include: the history of parallel computing, concepts of networks and parallelism, parallel programming systems and libraries, cluster types, cluster design, construction and assembly considerations, and hardware. Expectant cluster builders, like myself, will be familiar with most of the introductory material but may glean some useful bits on advanced topics such as meshes, hypercubes and symmetric multiprocessing (SMP). The author's recommendations for entry-level, mid-level and advanced-level cluster configurations will seem unrealistic to most Linux users. I felt that the hardware I had assembled for my cluster was pretty extravagant for a hobbyist to be experimenting with. However, my hardware didn't measure up to the seven 450MHz Pentium processors suggested for the entry-level cluster. At least I had that configuration beat on Ethernet bandwidth and memory. The author is aware of the low to no-budget, roll-your-own approach taken with most Beowulf clusters in the past, but he clearly stated his intention was to cover the construction of "serious" systems. Of course, the "seriousness" of a cluster is clearly relative, and the author's recommendations should be regarded as guidelines, not rules. However, if you do install the clustering software in this book, you will need about 1G of hard drive space per node, as the software requires about 946M of disk space.
The last three chapters contain excellent information and resources on parallel programming development environments, tools, libraries and applications. Common tools like GNU Emacs, GCC, G77, the Fortran compiler and GDB (the GNU debugger) are included on the CD. Two sets of parallel programming tools, PADE (Parallel Applications Development Environment) and XPVM are also found there. These packages are incredibly helpful GUI tools that allow users to create and modify parallel virtual machines (PVMs) on their cluster. The Local Area Multicomputer (LAM) package is also included. LAM helps users execute programs that utilize the message passing interface (MPI) libraries (also included) by lending a hand in creating a processing environment for MPI-based programs. All of these packages come with on-line documentation as well. Several parallel programming libraries like SMARTS (Shared Memory Asynchronous Run time System), SILOON (Scripting Interface Languages for Object-Oriented Numerics), PAWS (Parallel Application WorkSpace), POOMA (Parallel Object-Oriented Methods and Applications), as well as the math libraries PETSc, PLAPACK and ScaLAPACK, are included on the CD. Several debugging and performance tools such as TAU (Tuning and Analysis Utilities), PCL (Performance Counter Library) and PDT (Program Database Toolkit) are also included. For those hard-chargers that want to move beyond the typical Beowulf and build more tightly integrated systems, two sets of kernel patches, BPROC (Beowulf-distributed process space) and MOSIX, are included on the CD.
As if that weren't enough, the CD includes two applications, mp3pvm and PVMPOV, to test your cluster with.
Clearly, the CD is loaded with copious and formidable tools to build and run parallel programs. The coverage of the topics found in the seven chapters I've summarized above is extensive. I consider this book serious reference material for the beginner as well as the advanced clustering enthusiast. That said, let's talk about why I can never recommend this book to anyone.
The editing and proofreading done on this book was nearly nonexistent. Eight of the first eleven figures in the book were either missing or out of order. The number of spelling and grammatical mistakes is unacceptable. We've all come to expect more from O'Reilly, and this sloppy offering came as a shock. Through lack of editing, enough stumbling blocks are encountered to quickly befuddle the Linux beginner. Those familiar with Linux and the introductory material can probably get by with a few assumptions and guesses as to what the author meant. I did just that and moved to the installation phase.
In a nutshell, the author's methodology for building a Linux cluster involves the Kickstart installation method developed by Red Hat, DHCP and installation of Linux over a network. The software is provided to create two types of boot floppies. One floppy is created for a master node. The master node boot floppy is used to perform a CD installation of Red Hat Linux 6.2 on the master node. Once the master node is up and running, it is configured to act as a DHCP server for the rest of the nodes in the cluster. The commands to enter the information the master node requires to serve DHCP requests for IP addresses is clearly noted. Once the master node is ready, the second type of boot floppy created is used to perform automated Kickstart installations of Linux onto the remaining nodes from the master node CD over the network. In theory, it's simple and straightforward. So much so that the author mentions he was able to complete software installations on several clusters in about 20 minutes. Just the kind of software solution I needed.
There are so many mistakes, including errors in the commands to create the boot floppies, configure the DHCP server and perform the installation, that my software installation took eight hours. The very first command line I needed to enter in order to create the first installation boot disk was incorrect. It was to be one of many such obstacles. Scripts were also frequently mislabeled and often were not where they were supposed to be. The disparity between what is written and what is on the CD is appalling.
After hours and hours of making assumptions, cruising the file system, editing the boot disk software and a little black magic, I completed the installation. Now, I just had the simple task of initializing the cluster database using the cluster management software provided, and I would be able to run the parallel applications provided. You would think that I had endured the worst of it. But it's always darkest before dawn.
The cluster management software (another feature I was thrilled to see) included on the CD simply doesn't work. Essentially a bunch of Perl scripts, it was designed to work through both a web browser interface and at the command line. However, several links are missing on the cluster management package home page, making the browser interface moot. I possess a decent amount of Apache knowledge, but I couldn't make things work. Maybe I don't know enough Perl. In any event, when I tried to skirt the browser interface and populate the cluster database manually with the provided script, I was greeted with what I consider the death knell of this project. Running the script returned the message: This command will be provided in an updated Cluster Management Package. What? Not only was the software not working, it was incomplete. Things accelerated steeply downhill from there.
Refusing to give up, I tried adding nodes to my "cluster" (the single master node) by setting up a PVM using XPVM, no luck. I tried adding nodes manually at the pvm> command line prompt, no luck. My experience up to that point suggested that nothing was going to work without a struggle. So I reluctantly quit before giving the LAM package a try.
Apparently, I'm not alone in my suffering and disappointment. While writing this article, eight of the nine reader reviews posted at oreilly.com conveyed sentiments similar to my own. Other readers have submitted error reports that cover in greater detail what I've mentioned here. To O'Reilly's credit, they are posting confirmed errata on their website. It's quite the uphill battle for them in this case.
I'm dumbfounded at how this work made it out of any publishing house, let alone O'Reilly's. To avoid this kind of debacle in the future, let me go on the record as stating that I will personally review any upcoming revisions/editions of Building Linux Clusters and test the software within, for free.
Building Linux Clusters should be considered a beta release. Much work needs to be done on the next version before I will be able to recommend it to anyone. Technically, I am ahead of where I was with my cluster before I got the book. But it sure doesn't feel like it.

THIS is OUTDATED.... Then again...
I am happy to see one book commented on so in case I am out and see it I shall run the other way.

Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

How to Build an Optimal Hadoop Cluster to Store and Maintain Unlimited Amounts of Data Using Microservers
Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.
Some of key questions to be discussed are:
- What is the "typical" Hadoop cluster and what should be installed on the different machine types?
- Why should you consider the typical workload patterns when making your hardware decisions?
- Are all microservers created equal for Hadoop deployments?
- How do I plan for expansion if I require more compute, memory, storage or networking?

The Only Hardwood Floor Rug Pads
Rated safest and best for hardwood floors-
Ultra Premium and Superior-Shop now
There are two rug pads that stand out among any other as being the best rug pads for hardwood floors. A hardwood floor is an investment and while there are rug pads that claim to be rated for hardwood floors, many times this is not true. Many hardwood floor rug pads can cause damage to the floor. Two rug pads stand out among the crowd of rug pads as being the best and safest rug pads for hardwood floors. These two rug pads are available only at Rug pad Corner and are Ultra Premium and Superior rug pads for hardwood floors and other floor types.
Rug Pad Corner is considered the nation's source for quality rug pads, and for good reason. the company stresses quality and only offers rug pads that are safe for all rugs and for all floors, including, but not limited to, hardwood floors. The company has two long standing rug pads that have been popular for many years. Ultra Premium is a felt and natural rubber rug pad that is an excellent hardwood floor rug pad when slipping is an issue. Ultra Premium protects rug and floor and prevents slipping as well. Superior is an all felt rug pad that is not meant to prevent slipping, so it is great for either larger rugs, heavier rugs or rugs with furniture on them.
Ultra Premium as Best Non-Slip Hardwood Floor Rug Pad
As far as non-slip rug pads go, get rid of those waffle looking plastic pads that inevitably will stick to your hardwood floor. Ultra Premium is the choice for a non-slip rug pad on your hardwood floor. The surface of Ultra Premium is a recycled felt and the lower surface, the part that sits on the hardwood floor, is a 100% natural, untreated rubber. Yes, rare to find, yet this is the real deal-all natural rubber that is not treated with adhesives or chemicals that can stick to or stain the hardwood floor. Rug Pad Corner goes a very long way to make sure your hardwood floors are safe and the company even chooses to attach the rubber to the felt with heat, not with glues or adhesives like other rug pad companies. The rubber is heat pressed to the felt to eliminate anything that can harm the hardwood floor. This is what makes Ultra Premium the best non-slip rug pad for hardwood floors.
Superior as Best All Felt Hardwood Floor Rug Pad
Now, if you don't have a rug slipping issue, then Superior felt rug pad is your choice. Superior is made of 100% recycled felt that is compressed through a needle punching process and then a heat pressing process. Most felt rug pads contain an adhesive coating on top and bottom to keep the felt together. Well, with some extra effort, this adhesive is not found in Superior, which is why it is considered the best felt rug pad for all hardwood floors. The heat pressing process keeps the felt together into a dense pile and makes Superior the felt rug pad of choice over any type of hardwood floor. And, since there are no chemicals, adhesives or glues, Superior rug pad does not smell like other chemical smelling rug pads! A very nice treat!
Rug Pad Corner has your hardwood floors covered and protected. Both Ultra Premium and Superior are made in the USA with American products and are here to stay. The company believes that when it comes to hardwood floors, it doesn't pay to skimp on the rug pad. Paying a little more now for a quality hardwood floor rug pad will protect your investment for years to come. The money one can save on a lower quality rug pad can add to much more expense in the future to repair hardwood floor from costly damage.

Woman arrested for slapping a teacher who questioned what she was she doing in a hallway of Webb Elementary School in Ferndale
FERNDALE — Police arrested a woman for slapping a teacher who questioned what she was she doing in a hallway of Webb Elementary School, 2100 Woodward Heights, which is part of the Hazel Park School District.
Leandra Creer, 34, of Kansas City, Mo., was charged with assault and battery in the incident, which occurred about 12:20 p.m. Tuesday.
The teacher reported seeing a stranger wearing pajama bottoms in the K-5 school as her first-grade class was lining up in the hallway to go to the cafeteria for lunch. She asked the outsider what she was doing and the woman told her she taking a lunch to a student.
Police said Creer gave the name of a teacher that the victim didn't recognize. The teacher then insisted she follow protocol and report to the school office first.
"The woman started yelling at her. She told the teacher that she was rude and she wouldn't go to the office," Lt. Bill Wilson said.
Creer reportedly continued down a hallway toward the back of the school. The teacher went to the office to notify the principal. Then, Creer showed up in the office and confronted the teacher.
"She began yelling at the teacher, accusing her of being rude and started to push her with her body, a chest bump sort of thing," Wilson said. "The teacher told her to back up and the woman slapped her in the face."
Creer left but returned and told police she was the aunt of a student. She was arrested for assault and battery, which is a misdemeanor punishable by up to 93 days in jail. Creer was arraigned Tuesday and is out on personal bond.
The teacher was slapped with a flat hand. She wasn't badly hurt but she was shaken up and she told a union representative "my ear was ringing for a while," said Calvin Mott, executive director of the South Oakland Districts Association, which is part of the Michigan Education Association.
"Our biggest concern is about safety and tightening security considering what has happened in schools over the last few years and in Connecticut last month," Mott said. "How could a person walk through the school like that?" Continued...
Visitors are supposed to use the front door, which is unlocked, but is monitored by a school paraprofessional who directs everyone to the office, Mott said. He isn't sure how Creer got inside.
Superintendent Jim Meisinger said the aunt was in the school to drop off a preschooler for the afternoon session.
"Everything was kosher up to the point she took the liberty to deliver a lunch to the little girl's sibling," he said. "The teacher intercepted her and said she should go to the office first. The teacher did her job. The aunt gave the impression she wouldn't go to the office."
When Creer finally showed up in the office, Meisinger said she lost her composure.
"She will be arrested if she ever comes back on the property because of the behavior she exhibited," he said. "I think we also need to remind everyone to go to the office first. You hope a parent or anybody would understand that."

ALBANY, Ohio — Alexander reeled off 34 unanswered points over the final 27 minutes of play, allowing the hosts to turn a 7-6 second quarter lead over River Valley into a comfortable 41-6 Homecoming victory during a Week 5 non-conference matchup in Athens County.
The visiting Raiders (1-4) trailed 7-0 after one period of play, but Kyle Brown's two-yard scoring run with five minutes left in the first half allowed RVHS to pull within a single point. The Silver and Black, however, never came closer the rest of the way.
Tyler Smith scored on a 10-yard run with 2:20 remaining until halftime to give the Spartans (2-3) a 14-6 cushion headed into the break. AHS followed by scoring another touchdown in the third canto for a 21-6 edge, then tacked on 20 more points in the finale to wrap up the 35-point decision.
Alexander outgained the Raiders in total yardage by a 476-111 clip, which included a hefty 350 rushing yards on 39 attempts. RVHS managed just 37 rushing yards on 22 carries and also finished the night minus-1 in turnover differential.
Gage Miller started the scoring with 7:15 left in the opening stanza, as Miller scampered 67 yards to paydirt to give Alexander a lead it would never relinquish. After Brown's score cut the River Valley deficit to 7-6, Smith added his first rushing score of the night to give the hosts a slim a 14-6 lead at the intermission.
Miller added his second TD run of the night late in the third period, scoring on a 51-yard jaunt with 4:13 remaining to give AHS some breathing room at 21-6.
Smith added his second and final TD run of the night with 7:16 left in regulation, rumbling 56 yards to paydirt for a 28-6 cushion. Miller tacked on his third and final TD run of the night with 5:50 left in the game after a 64-yard scoring run gave the hosts 35-6 advantage.
Brody McGrath capped the scoring with 1:42 left in the contest after his four-yard run made it a 41-6 Alexander lead. Chase Meeks was also 5-of-6 on PAT kicks, with the last one being blocked.
Alexander claimed a 17-7 edge in first downs and also had 126 passing yards to go along with their 350 rushing yards. River Valley mustered only 74 passing yards in the setback. Both teams were flagged eight times in the contest, with RVHS getting penalized for 80 yards and Alexander being moved back 70 yards.
Brown led the Raiders rushing attack with 36 yards on 15 carries, while Justin Arrowood had one tote for one yard. Austin Whobrey had six attempts for zero yards and also went 6-of-11 passing for 61 yards. Dayton Hardway was also 2-of-12 passing for 13 yards and also threw an interception.
Chris Clemente led the RVHS wideouts with three catches for 40 yards, while Ethan Dovenbarger had two grabs for 20 yards. Austin Davies had one catch for nine yards, Whobrey hauled in one pass for eight yards and Brown had one catch for minus-3 yards.
Miller paced the Spartans ground game with 182 yards on 14 carries, while Smith added 96 rushing yards on eight tries. Braden Jones went 4-of-5 passing for 59 yards and Miller was 5-of-7 passing for 67 yards. Josh Barnes led the AHS wideouts with three receptions for 56 yards.
River Valley — which has now dropped four straight — opens Ohio Valley Conference play next Friday when it travels to Chesapeake for a Week 6 contest at 7:30 p.m.

I laughed when I read that you don't sew but you know someone who does, as I could have written those same words, haha! I made some of Dawn's coffee cozies, but she sewed them all for me! Yay for moms that sew! This is just amazing, by the way. Love the arrangement of flowers.
Love this so much!!
Wow ! This is so darling, you and your mom did a wonderful job on this its . Im going to have to try this ! TFS
Hey Kara,

Aurora Dawn
This is beautiful! Great job Kara's Mom.
OHHh love this! Saw it on Pinterest. I might try one with my Stampin' Up Flower Fun die! I saw a lady selling them in England but they are pricey, Very cute, only I can't sew! I will learn just for these though!
Such a beautiful iPhone cover! Your mom did a wonderful job making it. I see where you get your talent from!:)
Your mom did a terrific job!! This is gorgeous!!
Wow, this is really lovely! The colors, the stitching with the die cuts - perfect!
This is so pretty. I love the colour combination and the stitching. I could make these little homes for all my little things :)

A Stockton family is awaiting a decision from San Joaquin County Animal Control, hoping that its neighbor's two purebred English Bulldogs are ordered to be euthanized.
The Hammond family said that action is justified after the bulldogs viciously attacked and nearly killed its dog, Samantha, in the family's backyard on Oro Avenue last Tuesday.
Samantha, a greyhound-pit bull mix, is recovering on a blanket in the Hammonds' front room.
Her ears are completely gone and her body is filled with staples and stitches.
Security video of the backyard, shown to KCRA 3, shows two bulldogs pushing through a fence just before the dogs launch a relentless attack against the female dog.
Douglas Hammond, 19, ran into the backyard with a large plastic pipe, repeatedly striking the bulldogs in an effort to stop the attack.
"That's when I started to call the cops, because they didn't care that I was even around," Hammond said. "They didn't want to stop."
Hammond said the attack lasted 45 minutes before sheriff's deputies, using night sticks, finally clubbed the bulldogs -- causing them to stop biting Samantha.
"Halfway through, I thought she was dead," he said.
Officers allowed the owner to return the bulldogs to the neighboring yard, and contacted animal control to investigate.

The quarcino was more than we were expecting for the low price and location. The room had been completely renovated and had a big balcony with a view... of the duomo. The couple who were clearly the owners weren't exactly the friendliest, but they did open our bottle of wine for us when we asked to borrow a bottle opener. overall we thought it was perfect for a short stay, my recommendation would be to ask for a room where the sound of the church bell (practically on top of the hotel) is not as loud. It was right above our room and was ringing every 15 minutes starting at 7 30 or 8 am. 来自 Milan 的 Sarah G 于 2011-04-10 发表点评

Callie Bachman, Stephanie Chrosniak, Vincent Paradiso, Shoshana Rosenfield, Stephanie Zungre.
The apprentices are now listed. That's so nice.
No new promotions....that leaves 2 female soloists

Adam Hendrickson retired, as noted on a previous thread.
I'm surprised about Callie Bachman. Didn't Martins create R&J on her when she was at SAB? She had a lot of promise, but once she got into the company her career seemed to fizzle out.

My only beef: why oh why must these sites insist on bombarding our browsers with all that annoying java scriptage ... ugh. Something like 32 scripts tried to load when I first clicked on the site. For those of us who either must or choose to routinely block scripts for security reasons, it's a real pain.
And I'm always sad to see names missing from the roster, even though after 30+ years of following the company you'd think I'd have grown used to it by now. It always feels like a friend -- or at least a friendly face -- has suddenly moved someplace far away before I could say goodbye.

That overview is a nice way for out-of-towners to plan trips to see favorite ballets, but it would be nice to be able to check back before buying any tickets to see if anything has changed.
(I find much of the type very small and very hard to read against the varying background colors. Pale blue type against medium blue background? I could change the settings on my browser, but that shouldn't be necessary.)

Single tickets go on sale Monday, August 6, so we'll find out then if you can select your own seats for those, too. That would be such a huge improvement from the old system!
Doesn't it seem odd that Create-You[sic]-Own has to wait almost a month after single tickets go on sale?

Adweek recently proclaimed dogs to be "The New Kids" now that it's been 2 years since the U.S. Census found more dogs (43M) in America than children (38M). Parent or NotMom, puppyitis is hard to resist.
In comparison, real children are, well, real children, and there's a big, big difference. Argue otherwise and sparks can fly as parents bristle and Rex's addled owner feels misunderstood.
Personally, I only have one over-the-top, dog-loving friend. At Christmas she sends photocards of herself posing with her chihuahua and Rottweiler. It's a one-woman flip-off to people who apparently don't care if card recipients have never met their children; the kids are on the cover! When I first met her, this same friend spent more than $200 to get emergency care for a $7.99 parakeet.
She's the same person who sent in the Adweek story. She really hates kid-dog comparisons. I hate to tell her she's living in one.

"Adweek recently proclaimed dogs to be "The New Kids"" And why not! Afterall, dogs at least show gratitude for what is given to them. You don't have to pay for college and they never want to borrow the car, although they occasionally ask to steer.

You forgot unconditional love, something we humans could use a lot of, including city hall...hint, hint...
12:25 pm on Tuesday, April 24, 2012
I had a friend that used to treat her dog like her child. She cooked his food daily, it got prime seating in the bedroom, living room and all the photos around the house consisted of Cleo. It was her only child she used to say. Ugh. I love my doggies and since I have no children at this time, they are a great comfort to me and offer complete love, trust, and snuggles. But I realize they are dogs and they realize I'm in charge here. LOL

Momma's and Daughters
Damn I love my mom.
We bond so well. I love when my dad goes out of town, and my mom and I just talk and bond. We laugh about everything, and just get a long.
"You see, it's a very red neck thing…" haha just starting off like that, there's no end to what my mom and I can talk about. Today she openly let me bitch to her about what she does that bothers me. Like who does that?! I cannot wait till I can go out and drink with my mom. Holy shit that's going to be so funny. I mean my mom said 'fuck' like three times today! haha I am very blessed to have the mother that I do. We fight a lot, but we love each other so much.

Shared Lives Scheme (Adult Placement)
What 's available?
Shared Lives offers individuals the chance to receive the care and support they need in a different setting from the family home, or the supported accommodation, in which they usually live.
Placements are arranged in the homes of carers who have been assessed, trained and approved for this purpose. Placements can be short term, lasting anything from one night to several weeks, enabling their carers to have a break. Or they can be more long term, providing the opportunity for the person receiving support to live as part of the family.
The Shared Lives Scheme helps people who have a learning disability, those with autism and other vulnerable adults. We also run a respite service for people with dementia.
Download our Shared Lives Scheme leaflet(pdf, 558KB).
Who can get a placement?
People over the age of 18 who live in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames
How can I apply for the Shared Lives Scheme
To be eligible you will need to be assessed by a Social Worker. The Council offers services to people who are assessed as having substantial or critical needs. The Shared Lives Scheme also works with people who are self funders.
Find out how to become a Shared Lives Carer
If you are interested in the Shared Lives Scheme and feel that you meet the scheme's criteria, simply contact us and we will discuss your individual support needs:
Shared Lives Scheme
London Borough of Richmond upon Thames
Care Provision
Civic Centre
2nd Floor
44 York Street
Telephone: 020 8487 5396
Email: email@example.com
What if I prefer to organise my own support?
Many people have someone they know who can offer support, such as a family member, friend, neighbour or local charity volunteer. Our priority is to support people who have no other option or need additional help.
What support can I get?
We'll need to discuss with you what support you might need - we call this an assessment.
We may offer you short term assistance called Reablement to regain your independence or confidence. This service lasts for up to 6 weeks and is free.
After Reablement, we'll discuss any ongoing needs you might have through a Self Directed Support (SDS) Assessment, where we'll estimate the cost of your support and let you know whether we can make a financial contribution.
Can I get help with the cost?
You may have to contribute towards the cost of your support, depending on your level of savings, income and expenses.
We'll help you to fill out a financial assessment form to see if you qualify for help. To get a rough idea of costs and how much you'll pay, you can carry out a quick, confidential, financial self assessment online.
If we can make a contribution, we call this a Personal Budget. You can look after the money yourself and use it to arrange your own support, or you can ask the Council to hold the money and help you to find the support you need.
What if I don't qualify for financial support?
If you don't qualify for financial help from us, you could arrange to employ someone directly, a Personal Assistant, to support you. Hestia, a local organisation, can help you to find someone.
The Money Advice Service, set up by government, provides free, unbiased and independent advice, including useful information on employing your own personal assistant.
You could also contact a private home care agency. Remember to take care to choose an agency that's registered and inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Call 03000 616161 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. We maintain a list of home care agencies(pdf, 295KB) in the borough.
Please contact me about this service
If you're still unsure you can contact the Adult Social Care Access Team

Forum Member Spotlight: rickdb1
The PDB forum is a great place to discuss your boat with other like minded people. Rick aka rickdb1 works really hard to make sure the atmosphere is welcoming and easy to use. We love him!
1. What kind of boat do you currently own?
2007 Bentley 200 Cruise with a 90 HP Mercury 4 stroke
2. What is your favorite thing about it?
Lot of room and a smooth ride. Very easy to launch and load. Easy maintenance is also a plus.
3. What is your dream boat?
A triple log Pontoon in the 24 foot range with a large HP motor. Probably a 150 HP or better. Most likely a Bennington or Premier.
4. Share a fun/exciting boating memory:
Outside of having Family onboard and just cruising, I enjoyed being part of the World's Largest Pontoon Party (raft up) that took place this last summer at Lake of the Ozarks. What a blast it was to see hundreds of Pontoons in one place and meet a lot of other owners. Also had the privilege of taking a Veteran and his Family out for a half-day of cruising and fishing in honor of Troop Appreciation Day.
5. What is the must have boating accessory?
Since I added a Power Bimini top, I wouldn't be without one. Very convenient.
6. How long have you been boating?
I've been boating since 1984, when I bought my first Pontoon. Also have had several other type boats during that time in addition to the Pontoon.
7. Where do you typically boat?
Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri.
8. What part of the country has the best boating?
I think Missouri can't be beat. Many lakes with excellent fishing and boating. I have about a half dozen lakes within a couple hours of my house.
9. Who would you like to nominate to be our next Forum Member Spotlight?
I think Nightfisher would be a good one.
