Team Michigan all-stars
Six Eccentric-area stars are among the 40 Team Michigan football players slated to compete in the inaugural Ohio-Michigan High School Border Classic, set for June 14 at the University of Findlay in Ohio:
Player | High school | Position | College |
Corey Lacanaria | Brother Rice | Wide receiver | Ball State |
Marquian Johnson | Clawson | Wide receiver | Saginaw Valley |
Chukwuma Okorafor | Southfield | Offensive lineman | Western Michigan |
Malik McDowell | Southfield | Defensive lineman | Undecided |
Lawrence Marshall | Southfield | Defensive lineman | Michigan |
Jason Alessi | Brother Rice | Safety | Yale |
Tim Conley coached in last summers Michigan High School Football Coaches Association all-star football game and still fondly recalls the experience. The veteran Southfield head coach hopes participants in the MHSFCAs newly formatted all-star game, which takes place this summer, can enjoy it the way he did.
For years, the MHSFCA conducted its annual all-star football game for graduated seniors across the state as a reward for their high school accomplishments. Most of the players went on to play college ball; a few did not. The all-star game offered one last shining moment to experience prep football with their peers.
The game takes on a new face this year.
The inaugural Ohio-Michigan High School Border Classic is set for June 14 at the University of Findlay in Ohio. It will feature 40 of the best prep stars from Michigan against 40 of the best from Ohio.
Conley, whose Southfield team will have three representatives in the game the most of any school in the state is looking forward to the action.
I coached in the high school all-star game last year and it was a great experience, he said. We had a blast. The time we spent up there was great and the MHSFCA did a great job of putting the game on. It was just awesome and I think everyone just had so much fun.
Im hoping this years game is going to be just as great. The one thing I hope is that the event doesnt get overshadowed by the fact that the game will be against Ohio.
There was just such a great camaraderie we had at the old game and I hope the new one will be the same way for the kids, even though its a different format, he added. This one will be a little more competitive in the sense that they are going to play a team from Ohio.
Oakland County will have the most participants with 14, followed by Wayne County with nine and Macomb County with three.
The Eccentric area will have six of those 14 Oakland County players.
The trio of Southfield gridders includes defensive linemen Lawrence Marshall and Malik McDowell and offensive lineman Chukwuma Okorafor. Marshall and Okorafor recently signed national letters of intent to play at the University of Michigan and Western Michigan, respectively. McDowell signed a letter of intent of Michigan State University, but has not officially turned it in yet as he is weighing other options.
Conley is proud to have three players selected to the team.
It just goes to show what kind of kids we have here at Southfield, he said.
Birmingham Brother Rice has a pair of participants, versatile Jason Alessi and dependable wide receiver Corey Lacanaria. Alessi, who kicked, returned punts and was a shutdown safety, will play college ball at Yale. Alessi takes has talents to Ball State of the Mid-American Conference.
Clawsons Marquian Johnson is another standout wide receiver slated to play in the game. Johnson, who holds six receiving records for the Trojans, plans to play college football at Saginaw Valley State University.
The other Oakland County players on the roster include running back Ian Erikson (Clarkston), defensive tackle Mick Matich (Clarkston), offensive tackle Brandon Keen (Our Lady of the Lakes), center Alex Joss (Walled Lake Western), defensive end Dylan Roney (Catholic Central), cornerback Jalen Watts-Jackson (Orchard Lake St. Marys), cornerback Curtis Brenson (Farmington) and kicker Kyle Bambard (Walled Lake Western).
Head coach is Mike Zdebski from Walled Lake Central.
Clawson head coach Jim Sparks is one of the event organizers and believes it will be a battle.
Its the best 40 players from Michigan vs. the best 40 players from Ohio, Sparks said. Its exciting for us. Its the first time doing it and whenever you say Michigan vs. Ohio in football, theres a certain connotation of competitiveness that you can count on.
Its kind of like a goodwill game, where we can build relationships between coaches and players from both states. But I know our staff is geared up to represent football in the state and they are going to do everything they can to make sure our team is competitive on the field.
My role as a committee chair is to make sure we get the best team in place, he added. We want the game to run smooth and we want it to be a positive experience for everyone involved. I think the game will be great.

In a 401(k) or similar defined contribution plan, the "threshold" is the limit at which participant contributions are matched by the employer. According to a new report, a higher match rate (for instance, offering an employer match of 80%, rather than 50%, of an employee's contribution up to 6% of salary) has only a small effect on savings plan contributions. In contrast, raising the match threshold (for instance, matching 50% of an employee's contribution up to 10% of salary, rather than up to 6%) has a substantial impact.

Hi! I\'m Sandy. I decided to start a petition to get the old NKOTB Fan Club back! The one that their mom\'s and sister\'s ran. It should be a newsletter format like before, not just an online thing. This will also give the guy control of reserving some concert seats for fanclub members only so we have a greater chance of getting a good seat! So sign this petition if you want the fan club back!

Cheap Yoga Clothes Buying Guide
You may not need much to begin practicing yoga -- after all, it doesn't even require shoes -- but it's very possible to spend a fortune on special yoga clothing and gear. Companies such as Lululemon have built businesses on that premise.
Our search for the best cheap yoga clothes turned up Old Navy fold-over yoga pants (starting at $15). These pants are our top pick in part because they work so well for so many different women. They come in regular, petite, and tall lengths, as well as a capri style, and more than 1,400 online reviews are overwhelmingly positive. The Champion Double Dry women's training tank (starting at $12) is a good option if you expect to work up a sweat. The lightweight polyester fabric wicks moisture and roomy armholes allow freedom of movement. Mossimo leggings from Target (starting at $8) may seem like an incredible deal, but reviewers say they are too thin to stand up to a lot of working out. While they sport a wide, elastic waistband and incorporate spandex, they aren't as stretchy as yogis might need.
We've focused on yoga clothes for women here, but consumers of any gender can save money by making do with gear they already have. While yoga definitely calls for comfy clothing, baggy T-shirts are out. For one thing, they will ride up when you're in inverted poses. In that way, relatively form-fitting apparel is less revealing. An expert writing in Yoga Journal points out that tighter clothing offers the added benefit of letting a teacher check your form. As you move into various poses, you need cheap yoga clothes that will move with you. The right material and construction allows for that close yet flexible fit without binding or chafing, particularly when you start working up a sweat. That's why reviewers posting on Amazon admire the flat seams and moisture-wicking ability of the Champion Double Dry training tank. They say the "mock-mesh" polyester fabric breathes well and dries quickly. It's less absorbent than 100 percent cotton, so if you're sweating -- particularly if you're doing Bikram (or "hot") yoga -- the moisture won't weigh down your clothing or make it feel uncomfortable. The flat seams are designed to prevent chafing.
Sometimes the very word "yoga" entails a markup, and plenty of good cheap yoga clothes may not be marketed as such. The Champion tank is a prime example. In fact, online reviews suggest that consumers wear this top more often for running than for yoga. They testify that it's cut close to the body but isn't too snug and doesn't stick when they sweat. A reviewer who bought the top for yoga confirms that it stays in place, unlike looser shirts inclined to flop over the head.
Online reviews also credit the Champion Double Dry tank for retaining its shape even after many washes. One consumer, who says she washes the top after every wearing, reports that it has stood the test of time without fading, stretching out, or coming apart at the seams.

These cheap yoga pants come in three different lengths and a capri style, so most consumers should be able to find a pair that suits them. Reviewers so admire the close yet comfortable fit that they wear these pants far beyond the yoga studio.

These leggings from Target have a wide waistband that's not constricting and enough spandex to make them stretchy, but the material is thin and reviewers warn that a few washings can render them translucent.

The Definition of Crafting
June 29, 2009, 11:27 AMIt's really amazing, when you think
about it, what can be considered a "craft". When most think
about crafting they think about knitting, or crochet, or sewing.
When I think about crafting I think about creating something.
It doesn't necessarily have to involve yarn, or needles or hooks or
anything like that. I consider it crafting whenever I rearrange
my living room because I am creating an atmosphere. I consider
it crafting when I rearrange my bookshelves because trying to get all
of my books to fit on the few shelves I have is like putting a puzzle
together because if I don't do it just right then I won't be able
to get them all to fit. Crafting can be accomplished through doing
just about anything.
I want to put a challenge out to everyone to stop and think for a minute about (when looking at it this way) how much crafting you do just in your everyday life. Looking at it from this perspective really does fill your day, with happy crafting!
-Risdanya (aka Crafty Witch Laura)

Electronic Logic Gains Human Touch
Cognitive software boosts PLC capabilities
By Tom Keeley and Helena Keeley
Because human language is always open to interpretation, you can't audit human decisions the same way you can machines. That's because humans aren't machines and don't perform with the same level of consistency, even with today's tools. Yet, when a manufacturing process includes humans as supervisors and operators who make decisions as part of their responsibilities, these processes could suffer.
The rate of technical advancements in programmable logic controllers (PLCs) has slowed over the past several years. PLC suppliers have consistently followed the trends of smaller, cheaper, and faster. They have pursued alternative architectures and repackaging alternatives to redefine solutions to the same problems they have been addressing for the past 30 years. Some in the industry have suggested holonic manufacturing and agent-based systems to address discontinuities in the manufacturing process. [Holonic manufacturing is a way of organizing a manufacturing system to meet the challenges of coordinating increasingly diverse demand with faster product development, using key elements (or holons) such as machines, work centers, plants, parts, products, persons, departments, or divisions that have autonomous and cooperative properties.]
In few cases have the programmable controllers taken on more of the management functions usually left to human operators and operation supervisors. This provides an opportunity to integrate judgmental reasoning directly into the programmable controller, where access to information is closer to the real-time environment. By placing judgmental reasoning at the programmable controller level, management can make quicker decisions.
You can directly integrate subjective decision-making models into conventional programmable controllers by using a new programming paradigm, without changing the controllers themselves. The programmable controllers can then take on qualitative judgments such as safety, risk, survival, profitability, and asset management in a way operations management can audit. Because the manufacturing process requires explainable and auditable designs, this approach provides a dynamic graphical and auditable language. If you add cognitive capabilities to programmable controllers, users will likely find new applications in totally new markets for PLCs.
Conventional PLC solutions
PLCs have evolved from relay ladder logic replacing physical relays to more complex discrete applications, including support for analog input/output (I/O). In the 1980s and 1990s, industry developed more custom interfaces, created network architectures, and developed new programming languages. The conventional application of PLCs in factory environments has dealt with discrete manufacturing processes. These applications have tended to focus on the dynamics of isolated control signals. Recently, the integration of motion control instructions into sequential logic systems has allowed development of more complex systems.
Manufacturing architectures have evolved from massive centralized control, to hierarchical tree models, to distributed levels of control, and now to flat distributed architectures across a TCP/IP protocol. In conventional alarm systems, the operator is the sole problem solver of diagnosis. The alarm patterns are situation dependent and do not include any clues as to how to interpret the available data. The operator has to perform a complex inference process where measured data and alarms combine with his knowledge of process functions and properties. This bottom-up approach to diagnosis excludes the explicit consideration of system information, which the designer knows, such as the purpose of subsystems. Conventional alarm systems are situation dependent, and their design requires specification of dynamic, multi-variable, non-linear, inter-related information sets.
To some extent, adding PC functionality and specialty cards supporting fuzzy logic and neural nets have provided platforms for addressing more complex system issues. With all of these developments, however, the focus has not significantly changed. The overall objective of PLC vendors has been to create control elements that can work together in a coordinated fashion. The responsibility of the PLC has remained unchanged, except it is now also responsible for the concentration and distribution of messages in addition to its discrete logic control functionality. We've applied little focus to automating the human-reasoning component of the automation processes.
Humans in the loop
Fast Forward
Humans play the part of adaptable machines where it appears impractical to automate the system. They're like cost-effective robots performing repetitive tasks. Thus they're the ultimate tools in flexible manufacturing today. In their other role of operator or supervisor, they make judgmental decisions regarding how the factory operates. That's how they use their training and experience to monitor equipment operation and adjust parameters to tune the process. They control material flow and schedule maintenance, and they're responsible for the overall performance of the systems under their control.
As operators or supervisors, humans' subjective decisions could be the weak link in the manufacturing process. In fact, estimates attribute human error to up to 90% of all workplace accidents. They're responsible for overseeing complex systems with thousands of various inputs and outputs, generating massive amounts of data. Numerous tools attach to these systems to display system status and warn human operators of problems that may need attention. But it is still left to humans to make appropriate judgments to control the systems. Human inattention or error could cause significant problems to the enterprise because some of the more critical issues may occur infrequently.
While you can control processes and duplicate machines to build consistent products, you can't duplicate perfect human models, at least not yet, to best manage or supervise production lines. Similarly, since you can build machines according to well-understood plans, you can improve the designs over time so they perform better. With humans, even with the best training techniques, industry starts the process over with every operator.
PLCs control devices in high-risk environments. As such, the logic used to control those devices must be explainable and auditable. You should apply the same rule to define humanlike judgmental reasoning in these high-risk environments. Should a problem arise, you should be able to review the design and diagnose any action. Human language is ineffective in describing why any judgmental action is performed at any instant in time to the level of detail that industry expects out of a machine.
Electronic logic to the rescue
There are technologies that act as a collection of services that allow for embedding of humanlike reasoning in devices and software applications. They could be an option for manufacturing systems that require judgmental decisions or subjective actions as part of the process. In humans, the left brain is associated with numbers, language, and fixed rules. The right brain is responsible for images, interpretation of information, and subjective judgments. Using electronic knowledge technology is like adding a right brain component to a PLC's left brain component. It incorporates a graphical methodology for defining humanlike reasoning that maps closely to the process the right brain uses to evaluate information.
Manufacturing systems need to process conventional hard-coded logic to address the deterministic situations in any control system. These same systems can benefit from judgmental reasoning when they have to adapt to changing demands from either component failures or changing business drivers. Knowledge technology can work well when you can automate judgmental decisions.
You can create a reasoning model off-line, just like the primary PLC program, by using a graphical language to define the reasoning policies. The size of graphical elements defines the importance of information. Wires or lines indicate relationships between information items when one decision or action impacts another. But you would need a human expert to define the rules. During the development of the reasoning model, the designer tests the logic by stimulating simulated inputs and observing outputs or graphing the interaction between various items. Because the language is dynamic, the designer gets immediate feedback relative to the changing importance of information and the dynamic relationships. The designer can see the system balance alternatives and the relative (analog) output control signals that define the relative decisions.
Humans address complex problems as they consider different actions related to different inter-related issues. Simultaneously, they are considering how each of those actions might influence the other actions. Humans balance potential actions for as long as they feel appropriate until they determine the best collective courses of action to take. In cases where there is no time penalty, they may stop thinking about the solution when they feel they've considered the best solution. When there is no apparent value to make a decision, they may just continue to think or worry about the situation, or they may just ignore the problem. Knowledge-enhanced technology accomplishes this balancing during a cognitive cycle. At the end of the cognitive cycle, it is ready to make a decision. With such tools, manufacturers could explain and audit these decisions by reviewing the logic in the graphical language without reverting to complex hard-coded mathematical solutions. The language is explicit; once an audit indicates a required change, you can correct and extend the reasoning model if you need to.
Today's PLCs support techniques for parallel processing. Sequential function charts are one way to synchronize processes. Using this approach, you could accomplish the task with the knowledge-enhanced engine in one side of the chart while accomplishing the I/O in another.
One of the functional requirements of a human-supervised manufacturing system is to be able to address goals. In a knowledge-enhanced electronic system, these strategic goals are contributing factors to actions. These strategic values adjust the rules so when the system balances itself, the strategic goals participate in the decision-making process. Humans develop their own values and have their own personal objectives, which they might or might not reveal. Some of these objectives may be counter-productive to the goals of the enterprise: wealth, junk food, the desire to play rather than work.
Manufacturing systems constructed of devices with human-defined rules make it possible to create systems with well-understood and documented rules. It is possible to build systems that consider their own safety or survivability as part of the policies. In this way, PLCs can coordinate operation of work cells according to policies the manufacturing engineering function develops.

Difficult to edit/maintain play listsSummary I have a huge collection of MP3s that I've been collecting over the years. I also like to stream Pandora and Rhapsody. My problem has always been: How do I get my collection of music from my computer in my bedroom to my high-quality home stereo in my family room? And how do I do it easily--with an easy-to-use interface? And how do I do this while preserving the best sound fidelity?
*** P.S. IF you will buy this Sonos ZonePlayer 90 I suggest you have compare prices before you decide at: www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B001CROHX6?ie=UTF8&ref_=dp_olp_new&condition=new#?ie=UTF8&tag=***************&********=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957
I've researched this topic for over a year and finally sprung the $350 for the Sonos ZonePlayer ZP90 because (although a bit more expensive) it gets the highest consumer reviews.
Here's what's amazing about this product:
1) Easy Set Up
I always assume the setup is going to be a lot harder than "they" say. Not with the ZonePlayer. Clear instructions, all the required cables, and easy software setup. I was able to point the Sonos software directly to my collection of music--which was a breeze. Then the Sonos software quickly communicated with the ZonePlayer through my home network without a hitch. Full setup took me approximately 15 minutes.
2) Nearly Endless Music Choices
Since the ZonePlayer can access the MP3s on my hard drive, my music accounts on the internet (Rhapsody and Pandora), and a slew of internet radio stations, the music possibilities seem endless. Mind you, Rhapsody is a subscription service that I pay about $15 per month for.
During setup, the software asked my what my postal code is. Why? Because besides all the free national radio stations it can stream, it has a section of my local radio stations. Open up the local radio station section and the full spectrum of local radio stations is there for me to choose from. Pretty cool.
Besides Rhapsody and Pandora, the ZonePlayer can access several other radio "services" including IHeartRadio, Napster, Last.fm, etc.
3) Folder-Tree Hierarchy
While the software shows my MP3 music collection in typical id3 tag categories (genre, album, artist, etc.) like an ipod does, it also shows me my collection in the same folder-tree hierarchy that I have on my computer. In other words, I've arranged and made my own categories for music on my hard drive, i.e., Pop/Rock, Easy Listening, Celtic, Country, Soundtracks, etc. and I don't want the Sonos software to "mix that up." For those with large, well-organized collections, this is a godsend.
4) Turns your iPhone into a full-functioning, easy-to-use remote
My iPhone automatically connects to my home wireless network whenever I'm in proximity to my home. With the free Sonos iPhone app, my iPhone becomes a fully-functioning remote! Funny thing is--you can buy a Sonos remote for $350 that is the same size as an iPhone...OR you can simply download the free app and use your iPhone as a FREE remote. With my iPhone I can access my MP3s, choose songs on Rhapsody, make and play new radio stations on Pandora, and do nearly everything I could do with the Sonos software on my PC.
The genius of all this is that my PC, the ZonePlayer, and my iPhone are all network devices on my LAN that can "talk" to each other seamlessly and instantly. I can kick back on my couch in front of my stereo system, iPhone in hand, and control all my music including volume.
5) Amazing High Fidelity
(Audiophiles will always argue at this point that MP3s are incapable of true high fidelity, but let's just talk about "normal" people, haha.) I used to work in the video production industry and I have a keen ear for sound. Let me just say that with a great pair of speakers and a good receiver/amplifier the Sonos will give you amazing sound. My music has literally never sounded better. I immediately was able to detect nuances in my music that I could never hear before (meaning that it sounded incredibly good).
6) Seamless Integration with LAN Sources and Internet Sources
Using your iPhone or the PC software you can build a queue of songs. Those songs can be a mix of song files from your computer's hard drive and internet streaming sources such as Rhapsody. With that type of scenario, the ZonePlayer won't skip a beat. It can even cross-fade the songs between the two sources. To you, it will all just sound like great music without any detectable difference between the two.
7) Set it up as a Wired or Wireless Solution.
I have not set up my network in a wireless fashion because I prefer a hard-wired solution over wireless so I can't write from personal experience on this topic. But Sonos is designed to work on its own wireless network if you prefer. This means that you can have music anywhere in your home or business where there is an electrical plug to power the device. The only part of my system that is wireless is between my iPhone and my wireless router--yet communication is immediate with no perceptible lag.
8) Multiple Music Zones are Possible with Additional ZonePlayers
I plan on expanding my system to include 2 more ZonePlayers in different rooms of my house. When I do, I'll be able to play different music in each room (and control them all with my iPhone) or sync all the music if I want to.
Sonos nailed it with this product. It's so elegant in the sense that it works so flawlessly--with no lag--with ease--and with high fidelity.

"I expanded my home entertainment system with SONOS ZP90"
on by butchcollinsPros Easy to install. Great interface with existing system. Great sound. Room to expand.
Cons A little pricey.
Summary I have a Niles 8 zone sytem throughout most of my house. I use it for TV, DVD, streaming, AM/FM and CD's. I wanted to include my itunes library. I contacted a dealer about adding an ipod dock and he recommended the SONOS ZP90. I am not a tech savvy person and I was concerned about my ability to interface with my system. Incredibly it took only 15 minutes to install - IT COULD NOT HAVE BEEN EASIER!!!!!!!!!!!!
It not only plays my itunes library but all music stored on my computer plus I can also access thousand's of music stations - locally, nationally and throughout the world. WOW!!!!! On top of that I can access many fee paid music services (if you are subscribed) including Sirius/XM. I had three rooms in the house that were not wired - no problem I just added a S5 zone player (it sounds as good-if not better- than the Bose system) and I plan on adding two more. Soon the entire house will be arocking & arolling - thanks to SONOS. -
"Ease of set-up / functionality make this system great."
on by bremersjPros Ease of set-up
Music control: easy to import, search, select, etc.
Functionality: you can play different music in each zoneCons Expensive: each module, including the controller, costs between $320 and $450. If you want to add external speakers, you'll pay even more.
Summary When installing any device that interacts with my home network, I have come to anticipate a significant amount of troubleshooting. Not so with Sonos. After installing the software on my laptop, it ran me through simple instructions, and I didn't run into any hiccups. When I later installed the software on my desktop, there was even less work to do. Adding more zones is a snap.
The user interface is easy to learn as it seems to mirror the interface on similar devices, such as iTunes and numerous smart phones. Searching a large music library is simple, as long as you have kept your tags - album, artist, genre, etc. - well maintained.
Adding internet radio was easy as well. I instantly found my local radio stations through Sonos' simple-to-use radio search functions. You can search for local radios, national radio, by station, by show, by shows playing now, or shows that will be playing soon - it even tells you how long you'll have to wait for your show to come on.
A feature I didn't realize I would like so much is the one touch "group zones" function. By grouping zones it will play the same music / station in every zone. I loved the fact that I wouldn't miss out on the radio program just because I ran downstairs for a few minutes.
I haven't had the system long enough evaluate durability or potential bugs.

The black clouds make the green stand out more, looks great! I've seen a few shirts now I liked better in the ladies color. I wonder what would happen if you were allowed to make the choice between colors on certain things. Like having the black clouds on the guys shirt. -
Fat Possom said 278 weeks ago
Fat Possom digs, ya dig? Jakey, setting up the print machine is a big process and managing orders is difficult. I know TF loves their fans, but imagine what it would be like for them to cater to all of our color choices every day! @ $9 with the quick turnaround, I'm surprised they even make a guys and girls color. -

Very nice. I'd love to see more from this designer. -
addsteve said 278 weeks ago
Man, I am so conflicted on this one. I opened the page and my first reaction was, "wow, that is awesome," but I don't know if I want the shirt or not...It has a bit of "steampunk" influence to it, which I love, but lately I have been leaning towards more abstract designs. Hmm. I'll sleep on it.
Brilliant art though, really great. Looking forward to checking out more by this guy. -
keigo said 278 weeks ago
Great creativity, great design! -
Gray Xue said 278 weeks ago
Hi,guys, I am glad to see your comments here, weather kind or hard, it is my pleasure to take them, I say it will encourage me make things better in the future.Here enclosed the original design and the inspiration.
I often dream about a world where there are full of kinds of robotic animals,actually not only animals but also every biology...
this make me like machine design irreparably ,
talking about this Robotic Dragonfly,I think maybe it is one of the most serious killer in the war of future after I finished it,
but one of my buddy think it is a cool anti-mosquito weapon in future summer.
SummyGoss said 278 weeks ago
wow i love it^^ -
Mr. Sweet N Awful said 278 weeks ago
Damn, I really like this shirt. Though I wish the guys could get it in green too, it's my favorite color and looks awesome with the design. I might get it even though I don't think grey would look so good on me. -
biotwist said 278 weeks ago
I also love this on green but It has more to do with the black FluffySpam, those dark clouds bring this all together. I think the same design would have stayed true on the guys color - Load More Comments

Thanks to the Seattle Times columnist's expertise and experience with tent camping and RVing, Judd is giving outdoor enthusiasts plenty to chew on.
Judd and The Mountaineer Books group recently released "Camping Washington," and though it's technically a first edition, it's really the newer, more polished version of Judd's "Camping! Washington" most recently published by Sasquatch Books four years ago.
Since the 1990s, Judd has been critiquing and updating this camping guide, giving Northwesterners and visitors alike the skinny on more than 600 campsites big and small, from Spencer Spit State Park in the San Juan Islands to Wawawai County and Chief Timothy parks near the Snake River and Palouse.
A bit thicker than the previous edition (by 30 pages or so), Judd's "Camping Washington" pulls few punches on his opinions about the state's campgrounds. Sites are given between one-and-one-half and five stars. Just two (Crow Creek and Tillicum) are given the lowest status; campsites smaller or too primitive for a reasonable rating are mentioned but only briefly and in scant detail.
On the other end, Judd names seven campsites with the full five-star rating, with one in our own backyard: Salt Creek.
"Every so often we stumble upon one of those special outdoor places we love so much that we hesitate to ever write about it," Judd comments about Salt Creek.
"Like so many other prime waterfront campgrounds in Washington, this one takes advantage of the very qualities that made it public property in the first place - the kind of sight lines needed for heavy artillery."
"Camping Washington" lists other six top sites:
_ Cape Disappointment State Park (Long Beach Peninsula)
_ Deception Pass State Park (north end of Whidbey Island)
_ Fort Flagler State Park (Marrowstone Island)
_ Kalaloch (Pacific Coast)
_ Moran State Park (Orcas Island)
_ Scenic Beach State Park (Seabeck/Hood Canal)
Judd clearly favors the west side of the state, at least in his top reviews, and it's hard to blame him, with the luscious greenery of the Puget Sound region, the picturesque beaches of the coast, the mountainous backdrops formed by the Cascades and Olympics.
"Camping Washington" gives travelers all the pertinent information: number of sites, number of water/electrical hookups, maximum length of recreational vehicles, dates when the campgrounds are open and a contact number.
The guide also includes "best" lists for campground features such as views, showers and proximity to trails.
It also features a small color photo gallery and accompanying black-and-white photos for about a third of the listed campsites.
No wonder Judd calls Washington the Disneyland of camping.
Judd also has a publication in the works for families on the go, dubbed "Judd's Guide to Family Camping."
Judd writes the weekly "Trail Mix" column for the Seattle Times as well as "The Wrap by Ron Judd," a humor-filled take on the week's news. He's the author of two humor books - "The Roof Rack Chronicles" and "The Blue Tarp Bible" - as well as a spectator's guide to the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver.

New iPod Shuffle Speaks, Lacks Wheel
The new iPod Shuffle's capacity has been doubled to 4GB, and now the minuscule music player doesn't have a control wheel. But how will you ever reign over your music? Simple -- with controls on the earbud cord. WHEE!
The new design keeps the clip and adds VoiceOver -- a new feature that gets around the lack of display by telling you which song is playing and who performs it at the touch of a button on the earbud cable. It'll also call out your playlists and let you navigate to others. Available in black or silver for $80 and your claim to what Apple calls the "world's smallest music player."
World's smallest music player my ass. I happen to own the world's smallest music player. It's a violin. *rubbing fingers together* Can you hear that? It's the REAL world's smallest music player playing "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath. Bitchin'!

Occupational therapy is treatment to help people live as independently as possible.

Nothing to reconcile. I'm a Fan, I root for success. Others root for (and seem to enjoy) failure in the vague hope it will lead to success in some unseen future. Woody being our owner doesn't effect me being a fan. Thinking he fine does help tho, in having hope in future success.
I'm still trying to figure out what facts you're referencing, given you havn't provided any beyond "Woody is the Owner, we signed Tebow and didn't play him, therefore Woody must have overruled Tannenbaum, Rex Ryan and Sparano in order to sign him, buit apparently didn;t overrule them to make the team play him...".
In any event, agree to disagree.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. - There's been a word circulating through the Marshall football team, one that was there before the first whistle blew Monday morning for the beginning of preseason camp - believe.
"We want to make people believe," senior cornerback Derrick Thomas said. "We want to give people something they can really believe in. They've been hungry for a championship around here for a long time."
The work began with a pair of split-squad practices at Joan C. Edwards Stadium. Mostly younger players populated the morning session, while the starters and veterans were the lion's share of players working in the afternoon.
Thomas didn't want to use the word "championship" too much. The Thundering Herd didn't even reach the postseason in 2012, ending the season at 5-7. But with a slew of players returning - many of them starters on an offense that led Conference USA and was among the best in the Football Bowl Subdivision - fourth-year Coach Doc Holliday knows others from the outside consider the Herd a contender for the C-USA crown.
"Expectations for this football team are extremely high," Holliday said. "I've told them that's good. That's a positive for us. On the other hand, it means absolutely nothing.
"We have to come out here every day as a football team and walk off here better individually and as a better team," he added. "Then we've got the chance to come close to those expectations."
Part of reaching those expectations, the players said, was putting the struggles of last season firmly in the past. There wasn't a reason to dwell on the negatives of a losing season - the close losses and the struggles to stop opposing offenses. Thomas said the players no longer talk much about last year. Quarterback Rakeem Cato said that when Holliday addressed last season in Sunday night's team meeting, it was the last time he'd discuss it.
For Cato, the reigning C-USA MVP and member of several award watch lists, what the team needs to address now is how it can make aspirations become reality. He said that will get taken care of on the practice field.
"I told them - wideouts, O-line, running backs, everybody - it's time to work now," Cato said. "Put everything we're doing to the side and it's strictly football. It's time to separate the boys from the men."
* * *
HOLLIDAY HAD mentioned some possible surprise additions to the roster when practice began, and several showed up at Monday's practices, including University of Miami transfer Ricardo Williams.
Williams, a 6-foot-5, 251-pound defensive end, played one game for the Hurricanes in 2012 and was officially off the roster in May. He was Homestead High's all-time sack leader and a three-star recruit according to Rivals and ESPN. Williams will sit out the year as a transfer and have two years to play.
"We've been talking with him for a long time," Holliday said. "Probably about two weeks ago, he made the decision that this is where he wanted to be."
