This month has involved more wading that I've ever done before, and I haven't been able to shut my garden gate since before Christmas because of the rain. Here's hoping that our latest crop of lovely new creators haven't been modding to forget . read more
We have a few new things for you this month.
First off, there is a new theme! This one is called "BlueFish" by our esteemed Leefish, and is her ode to leefish.nl. It's got a really nice darker theme going on, with different styled central container, as works quite well with the site. Kudos to her for making it, and for allowing me to make it an "official" theme.
To test it out just select it from the dropdown at the bottom. (In the footer) Feedback thread is here: http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=519743
Secondly, do you have an Android phone? If so, you've probably heard of NotifyMyAndroid. ( http://www.notifymyandroid.com/index.jsp ) This is a service that sends Push notifications direct to your android phone, and I've added it to the "Private Message" functionality. You can enable it by entering your specific NMA API key (which you have to create on the NMA site) in your Edit Profile screen.
Please take a moment to test out the new theme, and watch out for some more exciting new developments coming later this month / beginning of next!

Recently you may have noticed that the TS3 subforums for individual EPs have gone missing, but they actually have been collapsed into the main TS3 forum. This was done to bring it more in line with the TS2 discussion area, as well as a first part of a revamp of the discussion area to downsize the number of subforums.
The EPs now use categories, which you can access via buttons just above the threads. All of the previous threads in the subforums have been assigned to the EP category, so the threads are still all accessible. You'll also find that the Spore and SimCity threads were merged into Greater Gaming World, with each respective thread containing the game title.

Sony Entertainment Network: 2012 smart TV hands-on
In 2012, Sony's smart TV platform integrates its streaming music and video services more fully while getting rid of the Bravia tag, but doesn't add any further apps.
From phones to cameras to TVs game consoles, if you've played with a Sony device over the past 5 years, then you'll be quite familiar with the company's Xross Media Bar (XMB), which also forms the backbone of of its 2012 TV interface. This year Sony is also pushing its Entertainment Network even harder, which for some reason meant adding a new, completely different-looking interface on top of the old one and keeping both.
Sony's 2012 app selection, as seen on the HX750 series I recently tested, is basically the same as last year (Sony recently added Amazon Instant Video to its PS3 console but the service already existed on Bravia TVs). High-profile apps include Netflix, Hulu Plus, Cinema Now for video, Pandora and Slacker for audio, and Skype (optional camera/speakerphone required), Facebook and Twitter for networking. The Sony remotes also carry a dedicated Netflix button for easy access to the video service.
The only major missing video services are Vudu and MLB TV, while subscription music services are conspicuously absent, probably so they don't compete with Music Unlimited.
The big change for 2012 is a more prominent role for the Sony Entertainment Network, which rolls together the Internet video apps above with storefronts for Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited. Access to Music Unlimited requires a subscription of $3.99 for basic streaming, or $9.99 for premium access, which enables you to keep a private, cloud-based library of tracks, including your personal collection and playlists (similar to other music lockers like Amazon Cloud Player or Google Music). Subscribers can stream from the cloud to the TV, PCs, or any number of Sony devices, and offline access is provided via Android and Vita apps.
Despite the name, Video Unlimited is not a subscription-based all-you-can-eat service like Netflix. Instead it's a pay-as-you-go service that offers movies at between $3 and $4 for SD and $6 for HD. I don't see any reason to use it over something like Amazon Instant or Vudu.
If you're a music fan, then Moshcam is one of the best apps available on any TV: full, free concerts by bands from Blondie to Gotye to Jay Reatard. It's hard to find; you need to access it via Apps > Internet Video, but the payoff is worth the digging. Sony also offers a unique Shazam-like app called Gracenote Track ID that can identify music from movies, TV shows or commercials, and a 3D Experience app with a few movie, video game and 3net and miscellaneous clips -- most of which seem to promote Sony products or properties.
Sony still offers numerous minor apps--3D Experience, Flixster, DailyMotion, Style.com, eHow, Dr. Oz, Snag Films, The Wiggles & Friends, etc--under its old Bravia Internet Video name. You can search for content across many of those minor video apps, but the search doesn't include any of the major services except YouTube.
A couple of Yahoo widgets for weather, news, and the indispensible Daily Puppy are also onboard, and you can access many, many more via Yahoo's Connected TV platform. Unlike Samsung, LG, and Panasonic, however there's no dedicated Sony "app store" that allows downloads of additional content.
Finally, Web browsing on a TV with a remote control is a terribly clunky affair, but if you really have to, then the Sony certainly lets you. Samsung's and LG's 2012 TV-based browsers are better, for what it's worth.
Last year our big hangup with Sony's smart TV implementation was its interface. Apps like Netflix and Amazon used Sony's own custom interface, complete with tiny thumbnails, instead of their superior native interfaces (Netflix in particular is so much better on a
PS3 than a Sony TV). That complaint still stands this year.
Sony's numerous video sources and ways to access them still seem more haphazard, with worse interfaces compared with the competition, but there's plenty of content if you can figure out where to find it.
Look out soon for more in-depth looks at other makers' smart TV suites in the near future, as well as a comparison and verdict once we've had the chance to test them all. Is it worth using smart TV services in your TV buying decision, or would you rather just get a box like the $50 Roku and be done with it? Let us know in comments.
Correction: An earlier version of this article stated that Music Unlimited does not offer offline access.

March Madness Scratch-Off Cards
Starting the Game Cornhole can be played in doubles or singles, but most people prefer doubles/teams. Teamates are positioned on opposite boards, and will be pitching against a player from the opposing team. Begin play by deciding which player will toss first and from which side of the board they will be tossing from, this is usually done with a coin toss.
Board Distance The distance between the boards should be 27ft from the front of one board to the front of the other.
Tossing Rotation Each player will toss 1 bag at a time, alternating with the opponent until all 8 bags(4 from each player) are tossed. The score is then tallied by the players on the other boards. The player from the team that scored the most points in that round will now throw first in the same alternating manner.
Keeping Score Bag on the board = 1 Point Bag in the Hole = 3 Points Scoring for cornhole uses the cancellation method, any points matched by the opposing player will cancel out the other team's points, if there are any leftover points for that round that will be the number of points scored by that team. Example: Team 1 has two bags on the board and two bags in the hole(8 points). Team 2 has three bags on the board and 1 bag in the hole(6 points). Team 2 would cancel out six of Team 1's points leaving Team 1 with a total of 2 points for that round. A bag that bounces off of the ground onto the board does not count and must immediately be removed before the next player throws.
Skunks According to the official rules skunks do not apply, if you are having a leisure game and want to end the game early during a blowout add the skunk rule, if the score is 13 or more to zero the game is over.
Winning the Game The game is complete when a team has 21 or more points at the end of a round. You may have heard of other ways of completing the game such as, if you don't get 21 exactly you go back to 13, or you have to win by two or more points, these are both options you can use but the official rules say a team wins when finishing with 21 or more points at the end of any round.

When witnessing the pageant of political alienation afflicting our state, I blame the recall. When I see the signature-gathering zealots rubbing their hands together and a movie-star politician posing for fans, I point to the recall. When I consider what's currently wrong with California politics, I think of the unintended consequences of an unwarranted attempt to replace California's governor -- circa 1968.
The effort to remove Ronald Reagan from the California governor's post, which ultimately failed, obtaining only 500,000 of the 740,000 signatures needed to qualify for the ballot, was an earnest, well-intentioned effort by self-styled progressives to improve the lives of Californians. And it had awful, unforeseen, long-lasting consequences for our state.
Even though it failed, the effort to recall Reagan galvanized a movement called the People's Lobby, which during its heyday -- from the early- to mid-1970s -- was obsessed with popularizing California's "direct democracy" laws. The group, founded by Los Angelesarea activists with left leanings, invented many of the tools that political consultants now use to run statewide initiative campaigns. The main beneficiaries of those inventions have not been liberal organizations, but the right-leaning individuals and groups that sponsored initiatives such as 1978's tax-cutting Proposition 13, 1990's Proposition 140, which limited the numbers of terms legislators could serve, and this year's attempt to recall Gov. Gray Davis. During the postPeople's Lobby era, dozens of other statewide ballot measures gained voter approval, severely limiting elected officials' ability to govern, and contributing to the state's current budget problems.
I'm a Reagan-hating Democrat born and bred, but I do believe that California would have been better off if well-meaning progressives had not tried to give one to the Gipper.
I can only hope the right-wing extremists behind the current recall live to likewise suffer from their handiwork. Now there's a ballot initiative I could get behind: A Measure to Apply the Law of Unintended Consequences to Gloating Republicans.
Although referendum, initiative, and recall are most closely associated with former Gov. Hiram Johnson and the 1911 law that established them in California, direct democracy didn't really take off here until the People's Lobby got hold of it.
The People's Lobby campaign against Reagan began benignly, wonderfully even. Ed Koupal, an anti-establishmentarian used-car salesman from Roseville who was angry at Reagan's efforts to loot higher education and close facilities for mental patients, led the removal effort. Even though the attempt to force a recall election failed by several hundred thousand signatures, Koupal's People's Lobby was emboldened, and it sponsored a raft of early-1970s, left-wing petition drives. Some of the ballot measures thus authorized were successful, and some were not, but they resurrected and energized California's previously moribund direct-democracy laws.
The People's Lobby turned the art of drafting propositions, gathering signatures, and garnering media attention into a technological science. Petition card-tables at strip malls, snappy signature-gathering sales pitches, slick initiative media campaigns -- that's all Ed Koupal. But he and the People's Lobby spawned something else, too: Soon, wealthy gadflies, corporate lobbyists, and a cottage industry of consultants, signature-gatherers, and press agents began learning from those early initiative-hyping methods. For example, Howard Jarvis and Paul Gann, backers of 1978's Proposition 13, which limited municipalities' ability to raise property taxes, attended Koupal's direct-democracy seminars.
Since the People's Lobby brought modern campaign techniques to the initiative process, the average number of statewide ballot measures passed per political season has increased threefold. And during that time, laws enacted by voters have cut to the core of the way government is run, transforming elected representatives' ability to tax, to spend, even to stay in office. The explosion of government-by-petition in California has also created a corrosive initiative-industrial complex, in which companies dedicated to signature-gathering, legal services, and political consulting conceive and implement campaigns to place initiatives on the ballot.
Ahead of their time, People's Lobby leaders became obsessed with campaign finance reform. They helped pass a major campaign initiative in 1974, the year before Koupal died. But it was too little, too late, and has done almost nothing to stanch the use of initiative and recall laws by anyone with $2 million to spend on signature-gatherers and television ads and a yen to throw a wrench into the California political machine.
"In the days we were doing it, we were one of those grass-roots groups. You had a pulse of the people, and the people were actually pissed off enough to sacrifice time and energy to get signatures and support an initiative," says former Koupal aide Dwayne Hunn, who is working on a biography of Ed Koupal and his wife, Joyce. "Things have changed a lot since then."
Simultaneously a pioneer of California petition politics and a staunch liberal, Hunn finds himself of mixed mind regarding this summer's political season. "Personally, I'm going to vote against the recall. But what I think is healthy about this is that you've got 135 potential candidates out there; 70 or 80 of them probably haven't been too politically engaged. You've got all of them debating issues. Instead of cops and robbers leading the news, politics is leading the news," says Hunn, a former high school teacher. "I think having this recall is good. It's going to force the debate, and people will get a little smarter. It will push the country's IQ level forward when it comes to politics."

The Motorola Droid Xyboard 10.1 and 8.2 tablets pick up where the original Xoom tablet left off. They both offer Verizon Wireless' 4G LTE data speeds, large displays, and a stealth black finish that has been updated to feel better in the hand.
It's regrettable that they run Android 3.x Honeycomb, like the original Xoom tablet that they replace when Ice Cream Sandwich is literally already here. Still, as far as Android tablets go, these two devices are quite capable and aren't hard on the eyes. They are a bit hard on the wallet, though, with on-contract pricing starting at $429.99 for the 8.2 and $529.99 for the 10.1, both with 16GB of storage.
Keep reading to learn what they do well and what they don't do all that well.

Got something to say? Post a comment-
When are these companies going to learn that the iPad dominates in this price range and that if they want to compete, they have to come up with something that's REALLY compelling to buy over an iPad (which nothing has been so far), or at a much cheaper price point?
Seriously, every tablet that's tried to go head to head with the iPad has failed miserably and ended up costing the companies a crapload of money. Then Motorola decides to come out with a tablet running Honeycomb @ $529.99. WTF were they thinking?!?!?
ICS or no sale.
Hmmm, ranting and raving about how awesome the LTE speeds are, but I don't think you are keeping up with demand. Most tablets are used on wifi... and I would be willing to bet that has a lot more to do with cost than speed.
@aspleme, I generally agree with those figures and how cost affects adoption, but it's just now that we're seeing really fast cellular data speeds (the point of the review commentary). The plans are also awful for the most part, but it's also quite possible that the $500 iPad which is Wi-Fi only skews results to an extent considering it's by far the most popular tablet out there.
Looks nice actually. This alone is proof that all tablets don't have to be designed like the iPad *cough*Samsung*cough*. It should be running ICS though.
The thing is I understand the dominance that Apple have with the iPad, but I still wouldn't get one. I would rather pick up a similar priced Android tablet and use that. It all comes down to what you want. Personally I hate the look of the OS on iPad/Phone/Touch, it's just a dull bank of icons. Nothing stylised about it. I prefer being able to add widgets to the desktop that give info instantly when I want it.
Dude, get a clue.. ICS source code was just released on 12/7. These are the steps involved in getting it ready for existing devices.. could you do that in a week? if the product already was shipping? http://www.motorola.com/blog/2011/12/07/motorola-update-on-i
e-cream-sandwich -
@Guest, the real question is whether Motorola should have waited a few more weeks and released a very solid ICS-based tablet. I'm sure OEMs get to tinker around with Android betas well in advance, not to mention Motorola is now owned by Google.
Avoid the XYBOARD 10.1 with Android 3.2.0 from Verizon Wireless - Possible crippleware installed:
Is anyone able to get the USB Debugging capability to work on the Droid XYBOARD 10.1? I have two Android based devices that work properly with "adb" and are recognized with "adb devices". The XYBOARD as shipped with 3.2.0 seems to be intentionally crippled to enforce the storage pricing model. I would be interested if others are experiencing what initially appears as crippling of standard Android OS functionality by Verizon Wireless. So far, this is the first Android based device that I may have to return to Verizon ... and have to pay the high $70 tablet restocking fee.
Does it have Tegra 3?

If you have ever tried this....you know what I am talking about! It looks harmless enough, just a few hanging straps and handles. HA!
I met my friend Kelly years ago in Kirkland, and we hit it off like a house on fire. She is one of those amazing people that can juggle it all, career, kiddo, and personal fitness. Her commitment to working with different charitable organizations is an inspiration as well.
Even more amazing, she inspires people to start running at all ages...and in her quest to help people with their fitness, discovered TRX, and found that it really helped increase strength, fire up your metabolism and prepare people for runs faster. If you are ever considering running a marathon, or even just running down the block, you should check this out.
Somehow this friend of mine talks me into trying it, and after just one session I could feel a difference, it torches the fat and makes you feel strong. No other workout (and I have tried them all) has made me feel like this-I am hooked!
Thanks to the fine folks at Fitness Forward
in Bellevue for letting me try out their equipment!

10 Best Electronics Suppliers
I wanted to make a site with many of the best sites to buy Electrical Parts, because it can sometimes be a strenuous activity. I have 10 here, because if you can't find something on one online store, you might be able to find it on the next.
Reynolds Electronics
Reynolds Electronics is a good supplier of remote control components, micro controllers, and robot kits and parts. One feature that stands out on Reynolds Web site is the clear and helpful project/circuit tutorials. You can also find links for educational books on topics such as robotics and microcontrollers.
Hobby Engineering
Hobby Engineering is a sit slanted towards the hobbyist. This site carries some useful items that can be harder to find from other providers who are catered towards the corporate customer. it also has a good supply of micro-controllers, robot kits, parts, ad miscellaneous components and tools.
All Electronics
All Electronics has an incredible selection of many of the useful items you would use to build your project. They are very inexpensive and it is easy to find your way around the site. This site also has a "consumer comments" section where the consumers get to talk about the quality of the product and more. (Thank you westfw)
BG Micro
BG Micro is a cool site for rare and pretty neat gadgets as well as a nice selection of alot of the items one will need for a weekend project. There is also a very nice search engine at the top which lets you search for an item you can't find on the left. (Thank you Las Vegas)
Jameco Electronics
Jameco has a very nice site catalog. It's not very big that you sspect a forest was sacrificed in its making. I has great color photos with relatively easy to find components. This is one supplier wih a low price fuarantee which means that if you can show a part offered for less, the lesser price is honored. jameco also provides lower priced generic products as well as name brands.
Digi-Key is a large distrbutor of components from various manufacturers, offering a very large catalog with lots and lots of choices. However, the site uses small print that might be hard to ead. The catalog includes line drawings but o part photos, but it does do an excellant job of labeling the parts. Overall, Digi-Key has a huge selection of products, but they might need a little looking to find them.
Mouser Electronics
Mouser Electronics
Another large distributor of components from various manufacturers is Mouser. I like how Mouser's site allows you to compile separate orders for different projects. You can come backa s many times as you like to complete your order and make your purchase. We also like how Mouser label parts because the labels are easy to read and provide alot of information about the specific part.
Like Digi-Key, Mouser provides a very large catalog.
Everyone knows Radioshack!. This electronics convenience store is pretty much like any food convenience store: CONVENIENT BUT EXPENSIVE. If you are stuck at 4:30 on a Sunday afteroon needing a small part to keep working on your project, this store is right for you. Be aware that not all radioshack are equal.
Fry's Electronics
Fry's Electronics
Fry's has stores in nine states, and if you are lucky enough to live near one you can browse the isles in person. Fry's stocks all kinds of electronics and parts including an EXCELLANT selection of IC chips.
Goldmine Electronics
Goldmine Electronics
If you are in the market for bargains, try Electronic Goldmine.. This online store often offers sepcials that can save you money. Based in Scottsdale, Arizona, Electronics Goldmine offers great help with international orders and also offers wholesale items on auction on eBay.
Quick Tip: Try clicking Electronic Goldmine Treasure Ball for the best deals!
Futurelec offers a very nicely done site with color photos of the parts that makes for easy browsin. Futurelec also offers semicnductor news links and also links to recently added parts to help you keep on the top of the latest and greatest as well as PCB design and manufacturing services.
[htpp://maplin.co.uk Maplin]
The British suppplier Maplin has stores scattered around the U.K. and also offers an online store.
Unlike electronic gadgets and appliances that operate on different voltages in European contries, electornic components are pretty standard. Although Maplin will ship overseas, you might want to check out U.S. Suppliers first.
Sparkfun was originally a PCB Manufacturer, and turned in to a company well beyond their expectations! They have a large variety of PCBs, LEDs, and MANY more everyday electronics components. The site is well organized with so much to choose from!
I've had pretty good luck with www.ciebookstore.com they are the bookstore for Cleveland Institute of Electronics. They mostly have parts kits for their training courses but they offer help from the instruction staff if you need a question answered.
i make custom part bags
and i can get requested parts for cheap (any quantity and specs)
shipping depends on the final quantity and mainly to usa
if your interested pm me and i will direct you to my ebay page
I need IXYS IGBT part nuber is VKI 50-12P1----------------2NOs.
pls suggest me possible source
Maybe not tech specific but there are good components to be found.
Great selection of mechanical, electro-mechanical and electronic products. Nothing but excellent in terms of customer response also.
is also excellent.
Also check out :
Great service, great prices. Cool products.
The awesome Teensy and other stuff.
I would not be an EE if it weren't for DigiKey. Honestly.
they sit on orders forever despite their advertising to the contrary.
But when (not if) they ship you defective merchandise the response
from them is "hey, it's all surplus stuff. You get what you get." Nice.
I had the misfortune of having the owner pick up the phone
once when I called to inquire on quantity availability of an item.
He essentially barked at me for expecting them to have quantity
stock of the item (even though it was advertised on their website
in quantity) and went on about how they "buy the remains of
companies going down", and quickly ended the call. Nice.
Their shipping "policy" is equally suspect. You pay a surcharge
over the UPS rate and they don't even pack the purchased
items competently. That winds up as shipping damage and you
get to pick up the phone for another cycle of abuse.
Wish I had a more positive experience here but I thought it
was worth sharing with other prospective customers.
I saw this follow up comment.
I suspect they won't be around too much longer. If I wait that long for
incidentals to be shipped I can effectively wait for evilbay sold products
from Chinese vendors -- who incidentally are more willing to work with
the customer in my experience compared to the hostile "customer
service" automatons at EG. But by all means if you are enamoured
with their service, send your money there.
Maybe this is some guy's part time hobby business, but that's totally unacceptable in the internet age. If I order online, I expect the order in the mail within 48 hours with a tracking number emailed to me before the package is handed over to shipping.
BG Micro
Some of the coolest and rarest gadgets at the best prices.
nice collection...
here are my favourites
allelectronics.com (wow its cheap!)
sparkfun.com (amazing community)
pololu.com (not mentioned!)
solarbotics.com (CANADIAN and home of the very awesome Ardweeny)
futurlec.com (super super super cheap)
electronics goldmine (weird place)
alibaba.com (not mentioned, asia based)
mouser (expensive shipping to canada and some items you cant find anywhere else)
digikey (fastest shipping on the planet)
*Be aware that the website is filled with tables and bright colours.
(hah, and I just had to fix my own mistake. Even so, it's only a comment - the article really would do well cleaned up a bit)
But of course, they have modern devices too. Just enter in what you want and they contact you with a quotation for the cost. It's a few more hoops to jump through than Digikey or Mouser, but the prices are fantastic and they have parts no-one else has anymore.
According to the stock status they have between 10 and 100 of them. Dunno how much they'll be. You'll need to request a quote.
I ordered MN32xx-series parts, myself.
This site has two for sale:
34 EUR (Used & Tested) and 38 EUR (Brand New - Unused). Not 80 Euro, but you could make a profit...
Scroll down to "optoelectronics" and choose
LEDs <75mA or LEDs >75mA
It will refer to a new page with a selection chart. Choose blue for the color, Round 5mm for the lens style, thru-hole (presumably you want thru hole?) for mounting type, and then press the Apply Filters button etc.
pretty straight forward once you get the hang of it
Great proto boards, project stuff (and inexpensive shipping if you only order an IC or two...)
You didn't mention All Electronics, which I rate slightly upscale from Electronics Goldmine and BG Micro. One interesting feature I haven't seen elsewhere is a "customer comments" section for each item, sometimes containing pointers to more extensive information, and relatively frequently containing some useful insights...
Also Futurlec which has some very low prices on items that are normally overpriced elsewhere (like Prototyping PCBs and Stripboard
(but they're slower than many other vendors.)

Washington County 4-H volunteer, Tana Wells, was recognized by KY 4-H as one of the top five 4-H horse club leaders in the state at the KY 4-H Volunteer Forum Awards Banquet held Friday night at the Hyatt Regency in Lexington.
The awards night was a part of the three-day forum held every other year for volunteers across the state. The forum theme was "Celebrating 4-H with the Stories We Tell" and the forum included workshops, 4-H program exhibits, commercial exhibits and recognition events the volunteers attended.
When we get some relief from the cold weather, this month is the time to do some yard work.
February is the right time to prune most fruit trees.
Apples, plums, pears, cherries and just about any other tree fruit you can think of needs a little help now before they actively start pushing out new growth.
Peaches are the only ones you should wait on; prune them after flowering.
Pruning is a necessary process that will increase your yields, decrease insect and disease problems and give you a healthy tree in the process.
This is the latest updated from Dr. Will Snell, University of Kentucky College of Agriculture Food and Environment, Department of Agriculture Economics:
After several years of debate, extensions and much uncertainty, a new farm bill moved much closer to reality this week as the U.S. House voted 251 to 166 to support The Agricultural Act of 2014.
The U.S. Senate is taking up the bill very soon, with passage anticipated, and the President is expected to sign the 2014 farm bill into law within the next week or two.
Lindsey Wilson College The SCC Lady Patriots (3-14, 1-10 MSC) couldn't hold on late against the visiting Lindsey Wilson College Blue Raiders (15-8, 5-6 MSC), despite a strong start.
After keeping the game close against the Cumberland University Bulldogs in their last contest, the Lady Patriots didn't waste any time proving to the Lindsey Wilson Blue Raiders that they were a much-improved squad.
After a dominating performance at Campbellsville, Hannah Spaulding (Springfield) led the Nautical Patriots into Union College to take on a powerful Bulldog squad.
Spaulding led things off for the Patriots in the 200 freestyle, posting a 2:09.27 in the final round, just off her 2:06 mark in the seeding heat.
Spaulding's performance was good enough to snag a third-place finish and marked a 16-second improvement over her 2:25 mark at Campbellsville.
The SCC Patriots (13-8, 7-5 MSC) rode the hot hands of Omar Skinner (New Castle, Del.) and Nick Porter (Owensboro) to defeat the visiting Lindsey Wilson College Blue Raiders (12-11, 3-8 MSC) on Saturday afternoon.
After having his best defensive effort of the season against the Cumberland Bulldogs in the Patriots' last contest, Nick Porter continued his career weekend, nailing down a career-high 18 points along with two steals in the Patriots' victory over the Blue Raiders.
When the Patriots opened their season this Friday, it marked the 13th season opener for Luther Bramblett as the head coach at St. Catharine College.
And this 13th winter has left a lot of questions as to how Bramblett thinks his Pats will do.
"I like our team a lot," Bramblett said. "The guys have worked extremely hard this fall and so far in January, but we've been on the field just three times. This weather has been the worst since I've been here and it has made it tough to prepare the way we'd like to."
Hart Co. Last Thursday, the WC Commanders (2-14, 0-7) travelled to Hart County to take on the Raiders (7-13) in a make-up game that was originally slated to take place on Jan. 25.
And the Commanders started off slow, trailing by as much as 17 in the game before cutting their deficit to as little as three in the fourth quarter.
But sluggish starts have been the norm for WC this season, according to Head Coach Russell Burkhead.
Ten miles.
Ten miles of asphalt is all that separate Washington County High School and Marion County High School.
And ten miles is all that it takes to harbor "one of the best rivalries in the state," according to Russell Burkhead, the current head coach of WC's boys' basketball squad and a WC player from 1978-1982.
The teams aren't in the same district in any sport, but the two teams play each year. Without fail.
But even when one team is down and the other is up, the contests are still generally competitive.
Campbellsville Mired in the second-longest losing streak (at eight games) under Head Coach Bernard Smalley, the WC Commanderettes (3-14, 1-6) were able to break out of their slump at Campbellsville on Monday night and pull out a convincing 49-25 win over the Lady Tigers (3-17).
The win was WC's third of the year.

School cafeterias will soon feature a lot more whole grains, fruits, vegetables and reduced sodium under new guidelines from the USDA.
Pitman High School Band members Bryan Rosales (French Horn), Eddie Savelson (French Horn), Jamie Orlando (Flute) and Ryan Williams (Basson) were selected to the Northern California Honor Band, which preformed last weekend in Stockton. Rosales and Savelson have also been selected to the All-California Honor Band.
Turlock Unified School District officials are scratching their heads over what course of action to take about transitional kindergarten. Assistant Superintendent Lacrisha Ferriera even jokingly admitted the quandary is affecting her sleeping patterns. Odds are she isn't alone.
The report cards are out and the Turlock Unified School District is showing marked improvement in academic performance for the third consecutive year.
The Turlock Unified School District has saved more than $1.22 million since April of 2009, when energy conservation efforts were launched. Those saved funds are diverted away from utility bills and moved back into the TUSD general education budget.
The Stanislaus County Office of Education honored 22 outstanding school district classified employees during the Employees Making A Difference ceremony, held Tuesday at Peterson Event Center in Modesto.
Dutcher Middle School students Lucas Bartel (7th grade) and Rayana Plancarte (8th grade) were recently honored as the Turlock Unified School District's Character Counts students of the month for the trait of responsibility.
The school newspaper was once an essential part of any educational campus. It was where students, parents and community members went to see what was happening on campus. In the past several years as school districts across the state have struggled with budget cuts, school newspapers have been reduced to just a shell of what they once were.
Congressman Jeff Denham nominated 23 Californians for appointments to our nation's service academies. Among the nominees are three local high school seniors who Denham nominated for the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, the United States Military Academy in West Point, N.Y. and the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md.
It's about 7:45 a.m. on the first day back from holiday break at the Stanislaus Military Academy. It's about 30 degrees outside and the young men and women of SMA are hurting - they've been running, pounding out pushups and standing in formation.
The graduating seniors of 2006 were the first class in the state required to take and pass the California High School Exit Exam.
More than a dozen Turlock Unified School District classified employees were nominated for Stanislaus County's 2011-12 Employees Making a Difference award. Nominees from TUSD will be selected to participate in a regional and state competition. Employees are nominated based on work performance, school and community involvement, leadership, commitment and going above and beyond the call of duty.
Keyes resident Yolanda Howey had planned to send her son to transitional kindergarten next school year, but now that plan is up in the air and she could be paying $3,000 for another year of pre-school.
The Turlock Unified School District now has a powerful fundraising ally in the form of the recently established Turlock Education Foundation, which was officially introduced to the TUSD Board of Trustees at Tuesday's board meeting.
The University of California, Merced may be young, but students, staff, and faculty have already learned the value in giving back.
In the current days of technology where students are more likely to be sitting on a couch than playing kick-the-can in the street, Dustin Grein is an exception.
The third annual Festival on the Green is more than an opportunity to hear the student bands, orchestras and choirs of the Turlock Unified School District, it's an opportunity to make musical learning a reality for future students of the District.
In California alone there are over 70,000 student members in over 300 Future Farmers of America chapters, or FFA. On Monday 18 of those local graduating high school seniors were recognized for their contributions and potential in the agriculture industry by the Turlock Chamber of Commerce.
On a cool Friday morning, over 20 Dennis Earl Elementary students could be found winding their way down a foot trail near the edge of the Tuolumne River at Fox Grove Park. With their teacher and a local Turlock Irrigation District Fish and Wildlife representative hoisting an ice chest full of salmon, the students completed their good deed for the day by releasing the salmon they had raised into the river.
Sixth grade teacher Jamie Garner of Walnut Elementary missed school this week because she was busy shaking President Barack Obama's hand in Washington, D.C.
Too much of a good thing can exist, such as when classes at schools are overfilled with students which can impact the academic environment and the quality of learning. Fortunately, the Turlock Unified School District keeps track of trends and is planning for an increase in student enrollment in upcoming years.
Gov. Jerry Brown took a more literal approach to his latest state funding initiative, the Local Control Funding Formula which places more spending authority in the hands of local districts, by paying local public education officials a visit last week.
As Turlock Unified School District prepares for its first year under the new Local Control Funding Formula, 17 temporarily contracted teachers will be released from their positions at schools across the District.
The central quad of Turlock Junior High School was crowded with the school's student body of over 1,300 on Monday, who were joined by local and state dignitaries during a morning ceremony celebrating the selection of the local junior high school as a California 2014 School to Watch.
The sun did not shine. It was too wet to play. So they sat in the classroom all that cold, cold, wet day.

ThermalTake VN700M1W2N Overseer RX-I ATX Full Tower Gaming Case - $69.99 AR
Last edited by kinokuniya; 11-24-2012 at 09:40 PM..
FANTASTIC case. It's sitting next to me right now. It's got a lot of room and great construction (heavy as heck). I purchased the case directly from Thermaltake's web store - they had refurbished stocks for $80 when other sites (such as TigerDirect) sold them for $120 new. The plastic top/front worried me before purchase; I thought it would be cheap plastic. It's not - I've dropped it on concrete a few times and the plastic has held up without a chip. Also, the "mesh" portion of the plastic top and front are metal, so it's VERY solid and sturdy (no way to flex the top/front).
There are dust guards on the side, front and bottom fan intakes. They do a great job, and are easy to wash and dry. I was surprised that the metal mesh place holders for the drive bays also have internal dust guards! So the only portions of the computer that are not protected from dust are the entire top, back exhaust, and the PCI-e slots. However, I use the back exhaust to push air out, and I use the top two 200mm fan slots as exhausts too. So I intake from the front, bottom and side. I like to keep my study open during the summer, which lets a lot of pollen and dust in. However, the dust guards do a fantastic job catching a lot of the dust. I had almost no dust buildup inside the tower over the course of three months The "glow" on the front of the case is not linked to your HDD or CPU output, so it just seems to glow randomly. The inside of the case is also painted, and it's thick enough that you cannot scratch it by running metal-on-metal. I purchased 200mm LED case fans to add color, but the two included Thermaltake 200mm fans are DEAD SILENT, and I sort of regret getting the 19decibel Cooler Master MegaFlow case fans. If you do not add any extra fans or replace the fans, this case give you a silent build; I had the Thermaltake included 200mm fans running at unregulated RPM connected directly to the power, and it was still silent. Coupled with my purchase of the Thermaltake Water2.0 liquid cooling that comes with two silent fans, and the Gigabyte GTX 670OC that has three fans that'll run quiet if you're not gaming, this will still give you a silent build for a ridiculous gaming PC. The only "con" would be that the bottom feet have sharp edges on the side. The actual bottoms of the feet are a bit grippy, but looks like plastic. That won't scratch any surface. But the sides of the feet have some sort of ridge-like design, so if you tilt the case about 20 degrees, those sharp ridges will dig in to the surface you have it on. And since the plastic that they use on these cases are tough, there's a good chance that the plastic will hurt the surface you have it on. I scratched the table I was using to make my build Highly recommended if you like/don't mind the look. It's enough to hold everything: Windows 8 Mountain Lion Mac OS X GA-Z77x-UP4-TH Intel Ivy Bridge Core i5 3570k (Unlocked) Gigabyte GTX 670 Factory Over-Clocked GPU G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) OCZ Vertex 4 120GB SATA III SSD OCZ Agility 4 256GB SATA III SSD Hitachi 2TB 7200RPM HDD Seagate 3TB 7200RPM HDD x2 Sony Optiarc 24X DVD Burner Thermaltake Water2.0 Performer LCLC TP-Link TL-WDN4800 PCI-e Wireless-N OCZ Technology ZS Series 750Watt PSU Cooler Master 140mm Blue LED Case Fan Cooler Master MegaFlow 200mm Blue LED Case Fan x2 Cooler Master MegaFlow 200mm Red LED Case Fan Thermaltake 200mm Black Case Fan Thermaltake Overseer Full Tower Chassis Pic attached (early build). Hope my experience/opinions help you guys! Last edited by okinawanmatt; 11-24-2012 at 10:50 PM.. Reason: grammar, picture attachment, comments about fans |
Totally agree with Okinawanmatt's comments. If I had not gotten the Cougar Evolution, I would have jumped on this on immediately. This comes with 2x 200mm fans and 2x 120mm while the Cougar case only comes with 2x120mm. The 200mm worth at least $10 a pop. This thermaltake looks lik a solid case with a well thought out layout as well.
thanks to Okinawanmatt's comments I have finally decided to get this case.
Refurb model is OOS at TT's website here [thermaltakeusa.com], and a new one is also on $20 rebate now. I hope they will not seize production anytime soon, so that I can get recertified model. |

NDSU takes second at Erv Kaiser Invitational
Published: Thursday, September 20, 2012
Updated: Thursday, September 20, 2012 12:09
The Bison men's golf team felt right at home Monday and Tuesday. NDSU had an impressive four top-10 finishers at the Erv Kaiser Invitational at Fargo's Oxbow Country Club to take a second place finish.
"The mindset this year is excellent," said head coach Billy Iverson. "The guys are trying to compete with each and they know if they can beat each other they will be somewhere near the top."
The six-team tournament was won by Manitoba with an 885 and the Bison were two shots back with an 887.
NDSU was led by Nathan Anderson who finished 5-over 221 for fourth place. Bill Carlson and Trent Olson tied for fifth at 222, Connor Holland tied for eighth with a 224, and Nate Varty tied for 21st with a 233.
"When you have a 5-person team, it can be tough to get all five people that are really, really good," said Anderson. "We have five people right now that can all play really well."
Anderson and Carlson were part of a four-way tied for second place at 3-over-147 after the first two rounds Monday. Manitoba's Charlie Boyechko even-par 72 in the final round Tuesday propelled him to win the 37-player tournament. His 3-over 219 was one shot over teammate's Josh Wytinck and North Dakota's Nick Schaefer.
NDSU's second team saw a sixth place finish with a 938. Oliver Boeckel tied for 19th with a 232, Kavin Dvorak finished 24th with a 235, Hayden Timm tied for 25th with a 236, Kyle Jandro tied for 30th with a 240 and Josh Weismantel tied for 32nd with a 242.
NDSU won't compete again until Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 when they travel to Sioux Falls, S.D., for the South Dakota State Invitational.

Thanks, Amanda and Merrill! It's a real honor to be chosen, and I hope to see lots of Food52 readers on French Letters. It's not always about food, it's not always about wine, but it's always about life, love, and the pursuit of happiness.

It's been an unusual summer for weather, and farmers in Wood County say it has resulted in some good and bad news for crops.
"There's a field right down the road from us that's just beautiful," said Shelli Morlock. "Then you go down the other way on the road and you've got water damage and you can see the strips or the ends that are completely drowned out."
The rain and winds have damaged some fields this season, but farmers like Morlock explained that it doesn't necessarily mean there's not enough to go around.
"We've had a good opportunity for some of that corn to straighten itself, and the corn's doing beautifully right now," Morlock said.
"Corn's a grass crop, generally speaking, and those kinds of crops like a little bit cooler temperature and they can take a lot more water," explained Steve Speck, Wood County Fair board director.
But other crops aren't fairing as well as the corn, such as the beans.
"Where it was wet, it got wet again and again and again," Morlock said. "Some of those areas died out, so the bean crop is a little questionable."
There's a possibility that consumers may feel the effect of the damage.
"In this area, the beans don't look as good as they normally do," Morlock said. "I don't know how it is across the state, and I don't know out of state, either."

Another Commitment, Another Deadline, Another Attempt
Posted on Jul 28, 2011
Okay. It's Thursday night. The Friday blog post should be in by midnight. I got nothing. At the first of the year I made the commitment that, every Friday, I would use the book I was reading or one I'd recently read as a springboard for a discussion about internal audit. And I got nothing. I could just ignore that commitment, but I've kind of slacked off lately and I'd like to think I can at least come close to pulling this off.

History Course to Study in Japan
By Samantha Savaglio
Dr. Jeffrey Alexander, Associate Professor and Chair of the History Department, will once again travel with his History 490 class to Japan this summer. The special topics course focuses on "learning to do things the Japanese way." Dr. Alexander comments on how daily activities such as sleeping, bathing, and eating vary from culture to culture.
Dr. Alexander is no stranger to Japan. Throughout his life, he has lived and worked in most of the places participants will visit. "I know them well," he says, "and they form a sort of highlight reel for students."
He also traveled with UW-Parkside students to Japan in 2011. His colleague at Hannan University in south Osaka hosted them. They will be visiting the campus and his colleague's tourism management class again during this trip.
The trip will highlight a variety of cultural landmarks, cuisines, and activities.
"Historically, the most important site is Hiroshima Peace Park and the A-Bomb Dome, which is not 'exciting,' but rather very sobering."
"Traveling teaches us that ways of life in other countries can be very different to us and yet entirely normal to their local residents," he says. "Our way of doing things is not the only way."
The course is open to all students and community members, with no prerequisites needed. A valid passport, good health, and a deposit paid on time are all that is required for eligibility.
Cost for the trip is $3,900 plus tuition for enrollment in the class. This includes airfare, medical insurance, hotel, transportation fares, meals, and admission to attractions. This cost is subject to change. A tentative itinerary is available on the university web site.
For more information, contact Dr. Alexander at firstname.lastname@example.com by email or call 262-595-2583.

44 Ways to Change the World
About the Project
The "44 Ways to Change the World" project was inspired by Psychology Professor Vaughn Crowl's 44 years of teaching service to the community, 41 of which have been at HCC. According to Loretta Thornhill, professor, paralegal studies, and a fellow faculty member in the Behavioral and Social Sciences/Business (BSS) Division, Crowl has touched many lives during his time as a teacher and it is those stories that faculty in the BSS Division would like to highlight.
BSS faculty are asking that current students, former students and alumni, faculty, and staff members begin an individual or group service project in Crowl's honor. Participants are asked to document their work through pictures and submit photos and a brief summary to email@example.com no later than Oct. 21. Submitted items will be compiled into a scrapbook, which will be presented to Crowl later this fall. Current and former students are also encouraged to submit stories of how Crowl inspired them to begin service projects, or in other aspects of their lives, for inclusion in the scrapbook.
"This is one of several events planned to honor Dr. Crowl's outstanding service to his students and the college," says Thornhill. "Dr. Crowl believes in service to others and he incorporates this ideal into his psychology courses, as well as the leadership course he teaches to high school and college students. We wanted to find a way to recognize his commitment."
Crowl will retire at the end of the fall 2011 semester.
About Vaughn Crowl
"My goal has always been to develop and implement a visionary leadership mission into College teaching, which integrates intellectual, political, social, economic and spirited resources into the delivery of a new standard of teaching excellence in higher education."
-Dr. Vaughn Crowl
Vaughn Crowl began teaching psychology at HCC in 1970. During his first three years at the college, he also served as the director of student activities. In later years, he would go on to serve as a counselor, an instructor of physical education in racquetball and triathlon training, and chair of both the Physical Education and Leisure Studies Division, as well as the Behavioral and Social Sciences/Business Division.
In 1998, he became the director of the learning community, a partnership project between HCC and Washington County Public Schools (WCPS). Leadership roles he has undertaken at HCC include chairing the Faculty Assembly, chairing the Curriculum Committee, chairing the Learning Community Steering Committee, co-chairing the Middle States Accreditation Study, and founding the Student Leadership Kepler Scholar Program. Crowl also served as the director for the All-County Honors Chorus on two separate occasions.
Crowl began his education in 1964 when he pursued a double-major in psychology and political science at Frostburg State University. He graduated in 1968 and four years later completed a master's of education degree in guidance and counseling from Johns Hopkins University Baltimore. He earned a certificate of advanced study in counseling and therapy with a minor in higher education from Johns Hopkins University in 1974. Following that, he earned a master's of science in counseling psychology/behavioral psychology from Johns Hopkins University in 1979. In 1987, he completed his doctoral degree in counseling and human development at the American University. For his doctoral dissertation, Crowl focused on Hagerstown Community College, then Hagerstown Junior College. His dissertation, "Educating Rural Maryland: A Historical and Anecdotal History of Hagerstown Junior College" was published by the Maryland Historical Society in 1987.
