Mobile Survey
Mobile Survey is a comprehensive system, designed for conducting automated travel surveys. It takes advantage of capabilities and growing use of smart phones by the general public, and will provide a low-cost, efficient and highly scalable method of conducting travel and transportation surveys by utilizing smartphone apps and automation algorithms. The main apps will cover all major smartphone platforms and will be used for a continuous travel survey. The continuous survey collects core data elements for a typical travel survey. Most detailed activity information can be detected by the system through automation algorithms and geocoding. Main applications may be used for household travel surveys and most other travel surveys regardless of size and complexity. The main apps may need to be modified for some specialized surveys. The system is being considered for development at Caltrans.Surveys may target specific geographic areas or demographic groups, and conducted at state, national or global level. Targeting may be accomplished by sampling or through postprocessing. Volunteers will use their own smartphones to download the apps and participate in the survey. Recruitment of volunteers will be mainly through promotion, advertising and incentives, but may also include traditional recruitment methods such as mail and phone calls.
This is how the continuous survey which uses the main applications will work. Specialized surveys work the same way, except for recruitment which may be different depending on the characteristics of the survey.Recruited survey participants are directed to a website to register, read instructions, fill out a demographic questionnaire and download the app. They may also have the option to read the instructions and fill out the demographic questionnaire directly on their smartphones. After that, they can participate in the survey as often as they want and for as long as they wish. To start the survey, the participants identify their first location (origin) on the first screen of the app, start travelling and answer questions on the app as they appear. Questions appear when triggered by the server-side algorithms after a stop is detected. They should be answered only when it is safe for the participants. We encourage the participants not to use the app while driving. Answers don't need to be in real time. Following attachments show the demographic questionnaire and the activity flowchart that will be programmed in the app.
Demographic Questionnaire Mobile Survey Flowchart
Activity data and all information collected by GPS are transmitted to a central server in real time. The data is integrated with demographic information, and compiled for postprocessing and data mining.
The collected data will be presented by utilizing a data analysis tool through an on-line interface that works with the collected data in the background. The data analysis tool works with the streaming data and will be user friendly and comprehensive to the point that it would eliminate the need for sharing the raw data with anyone.
A memory function will enable the app to learn the participants' travel patterns. When a participant enters a specific trip activity or purpose for a location, the location and activity that the participant has entered will be stored in the smartphone's memory (It could also be stored on the server). When it is confirmed, the app will associate that location with the activity that has been entered previously. After that, every time a stop occurs at the same location, the activity will be entered automatically without asking the participant for input. This will greatly reduce burden on the participants, especially for locations like home, work, school and daycare that are frequent origins and destinations.
Another central feature of this system is the stop-detection algorithm. It will detect start and end of trips by considering speed changes and other factors. The algorithm will run in real time and send a signal within five or ten minutes to the smartphone indicating that a stop has occurred. The algorithm will eliminate the need to ask participants to indicate stops and beginning/end of the trips. This is essential because our field tests show that people frequently forget to enter this information and when it is entered, the time of entry is usually very different from the actual time for stops and beginning/end of the trips. This makes the data entered by the participants unreliable. Other automation algorithms needed in this system, are for detecting activity/location and mode.
Activity/location algorithm may detect activity/location close to real time. In some cases, this will eliminate the need to rely on the memory function. In other cases, it may verify if the activity is the same as the one stored in the smartphone memory. In a similar way, the smartphone will store mode and occupancy between frequent origins and destination after adequate confirmation. The app will use the stored information to detect mode and occupancy in the future without asking for input. Mode-detection algorithm will interact with memory function the same way as activity/location algorithm does. Memory functions and automation algorithms will in general complement each other to produce more accurate data. Collecting other information like parking fee and transit fare may also be automated the same way.
Using the memory functions and automation algorithms reduces the need for user input and makes the app more efficient and user friendly. The need for user input decreases further as the survey continues and the system learns the participants' travel patterns. The app will only ask for information that is not already in smartphone's memory and cannot be detected by the algorithms. After a week or two (or ideally a month)*, the participants may stop interacting with the app altogether. And if they agree to leave the app running in the background, we'll be able to collect large amounts of statistically significant data without any input by the participants. To encourage the participants to continue the survey to this point and then leave the app running, we may consider a direct incentive like paying for participants' data plan or the entire phone bill for all the days that we receive correct data from their phones. This kind of data is not available through traditional data collection methods and will provide valuable information especially for longitudinal studies.
A set of apps for basic cellphones may be developed to expand the pool of potential survey participants. In that case, the participants will go on line to enter their trip information or correct/confirm what has been detected by the system. At the present time, about 85% of adults in the US have mobile phones. They are divided almost 50/50 between smartphones and basic cellphones.
*Length of the survey required to get to this point will be determined by field testing and analyzing the data.
After the completion of development and successful testing, the system may be made available on line to all public or private entities who are interested in conducting a travel survey. All they need to do is to recruit from their target population and direct the volunteers to the Mobile Survey public website (or app stores) to register and participate in the survey. The data will be collected and presented on line through the interface. Since no Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is included in the output, anyone can access the information extracted from the data through the on-line interface.
If the participating agency decides to pay for the survey participants' phone and/or data plans as an incentive, the system may include a feature to facilitate transactions with the phone companies on behalf of the participating agency.
One of the main characteristics of this system is that it is flexible and subject to continuous improvements without disruption of the on-going survey(s). All aspects of the system, especially the demographic questionnaire and activity flowchart will continuously evolve and improve, based on our experience and feedback from planners, modelers, statisticians, IT professionals and the general public. The demographic questionnaire may be greatly expanded without too much burden on survey participants to facilitate detailed household travel surveys.
The data collected by this system is different in nature from what traditional travel-activity surveys collect. We may be able to develop postprocessing methods that would provide new and useful information for transportation studies that is not available through data collected by traditional methods.
We will continue to improve the automation of data collection. Advances in mobile technology will provide new possibilities for this system. We will constantly monitor new innovations and adjust our system to take advantage of the latest technology available.Other future improvements may include addition of voice capability, and providing survey material in Spanish and other languages.

In this post I will try to discuss diverse organization structures of web based projects, mostly with JSF. The first thought when starting a new project is how to organize my Java packages? Imagine, you develop a web based user and group management system. A long time I used the following structure of Java packages which separates bean classes from model classes (model classes are sometimes called view helpers).
This is a good layout in my optinion, but it is not good enough if you have big projects. Why? Although some bean and model classes belong together, they are located far from each other. You have to navigate and scroll in your IDE between the bean and model packages. This can steal some time. Over the years I have realized that a grouping of classes according to their logical / semantic meaning may looks better. That means, model packages and classes are located in the same superordinated packages as beans they belong to. Common used beans and model classes can be placed in an extra package, say e.g. common.
But be careful here. Some developers prefer to blow up the count of beans. If you follow strict the MVC-pattern, you need backing beans, controller beans and view interfaces, beans. Backing beans take responsibility for component, value binding and delegation of events. They delegate the business logic's execution to the controller beans. Controller beans communicate with the underlying backend system(s). This fine-tuned separation of concepts increases the testability of small software pieces, but it leads to many classes and can complicate the project's structure under some circumstances.
What is about web pages? Here there are more or less the same two approaches. The first one follows the approach described e.g. in this article. There are three main folders: templates, views and sections. Templates are facelets templates used on (almost) every page. Views are full pages. They are bound to URLs in browsers. Views use templates. Sections are small pieces on a page. Sections are included by views (think on ui:include). The structure looks as follows:
You also see here a folder shared which contains some common used stuff. Pages for users and groups include a common section dialogs.xhtml. It is placed below /sections/shared/usergroups. As I aleady said, I realized that the grouping of pages and sections, when they belong together, could be a better approach. So, the next structure has two main folders pages and templates. Sections are located under includes in the same superordinated folders as pages which include them.
The grouping looks more efficient now in terms of IDE's navigation. It is also clear what parts belongs together. In the last picture you also see that the folder usergroups contains sub-folders users, groups and the common includes shared on different pages in the context of user / group management.
What is your preferred structure? Share your thoughts. Any feedback is welcome.

The Oklahoma State football team practiced dressed in full pads Wednesday morning on the grass practice fields adjacent to Gallagher-Iba Arena. It was the first of two scheduled Wednesday practices. After the two-hour session, linebackers coach Glenn Spencer talked about his position group:
On the depth of the Oklahoma State linebackers:
"There are a lot of twos who are getting reps with the ones now. I'm trying to mix and match to make sure that I'm seeing everybody against the best competition that they can go against in fall camp so I can get a better evaluation of who's getting better and who's playing better against better competition at times. I'm rotating those ones and twos and the threes are even getting some reps up top, so it goes back to having a lot of guys that can play and trying to develop as much depth as I can, knowing that during the course of a season, that's going to pay off big dividends. We're going to get banged up. We're going to get bruised – those things happen, not to mention limiting the total number of reps that one guy can get so you've got some fresh legs in the fourth quarter."
On what Ryan Simmons brings:
"Ryan has had a good camp. The deficiency is that there are some mental errors that he'll clean up. A lot of that has to do with getting repetitions - with him getting some looks over and over again. He's just got a natural flow in the box. He does a great job with his hands. He can pull the trigger once he deciphers what's going on. The game is starting to slow down for him as far as what the offense looks like to him. When you're out there as a freshman, everything is really fast. You're playing with the same amount of speed, you're going hard but what you're seeing starts to slow down and it's starting to get that way for him."
On Lyndell Johnson's game:
"He's a very fluid player. He has tremendous instincts. We're trying to bulk him up a little bit more so he'll be more durable. He gets banged up a little bit. He's learning to play more physically and he wants to play more physically - that part of his game is improving weekly. He has an advantage because of his mobility and his moving out there in the perimeter game. He gives us an advantage in a lot of areas, especially with the kind of ball we play in the Big 12."
On Nico Ornelas:
"He's similar to Lyndell in that he's very good out there on the perimeter. Same thing – we're bulking him up, he's learning to be a physical player. Just watching him out there in practice in camp, he's not shy. He loves to stick his face in there. He's a guy that gives you a little bit more in the passing game than in the running game right now. Going back to my whole group, it's great to have guys that have different strengths than others. It's up to me to get those matchups right on the field."
On improvement among the starters:
"We all have deficiencies to improve on. I mention that to them every day of their life – things they have to improve on. They're making strides. Shaun Lewis is being more instinctive than I've ever seen him. He has a great knack for anticipating. There's a fine line between anticipation and guessing and he pushes the limit there and it allows him to make big plays. He's done that this camp.
"Caleb Lavey is quicker. He has a great aptitude for the scheme and for getting to the spot where he needs to be and getting there quick and making up for when somebody else might lose their assignment. Somebody up front of him loses their gap and he's going to overlap and overtake it – shoot, you just don't get that out of many people.
"Alex is developing great, just like I thought he would. It's just a continual process with him. From fall to spring and now from spring into camp. Every day, I see the light come on for him for different things. It's a process, but none of them have arrived. It's a journey that we're all on, but yes, they have made improvement."
On if Alex Elkins' greatest improvement has come in the understanding of the defense:
"Yes. We've had a few practices now, but he's not a finished product. I don't know if any of them will ever be. We're working for perfection, but we'll accept excellence. That's what he's trying to do. He's got a further way to go than the rest of them, but as long as he's making improvements, I'm very pleased."

CATEGORIES Action, Casting, 20th Century Fox, Newsstand, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Remakes and Sequels, Movies, CinematicalJust when your blood was up by ugly rumors that Fox wanted hot Taylor Lautner types for X-Men: First Class comes news that will quench it. According to Deadline Hollywood Daily, Nicholas Hoult is stepping in to the shoes of Dr. Hank McCoy, the role recently vacated by Benjamin Walker.
Hoult is a long way from Twilight territory. It's not that he's hideous -- far from it -- but he's no beefcake. He's an actor. You probably remember him from About A Boy. Well, now he's grown up and you probably didn't realize he was that kid when you saw him in Clash of the Titans or A Single Man. He's also nabbed a part in the highly anticipated Mad Max: Fury Road, so you know he can be a badass. (Hey, why didn't he come up in Spider-Man casting? I could have gotten behind his casting as easily as Andrew Garfield's.)
So, Matthew Vaughn's First Class now stands at five official class members: Michael Fassbender as Magneto, James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier, Alice Eve as Emma Frost, Caleb Landry Jones as Banshee, and Hoult as Dr. Hank McCoy. Aaron Johnson is rumored to be Cyclops, but hasn't been confirmed. I will give First Class credit where credit's due -- there's no good continuity, but they have chosen fine actors. I just hope there's something worth their talent in the film. I've been cynical about this, but I'd love to be wrong. The X-Men are such a cool bunch of superheroes that I'm dying to see them rise out of the ashes, and compete with The Avengers.

Poetry's Bridge - Struga, Macedonia
Ohrid Summer Festival opening at Antic theater in Ohrid, Macedonia
Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

The lack of sacks and TFL might not be all on the Bearcats defensive line. Purdue called a ton of plays that were off three step and shorter drops. That's a great way to manage a sketchy quarterback. It's hard to have a lot of things go catastrophically bad on a three step drop. The other mitigating factor is just how iffy Rob Henry was at QB, he had no confidence or rhythm to his passing and looked out of sorts from the start.
Purdue put the ball up 35 times and the Bearcats came up with one sack. It was a crucial sack, but it was just a sack. That's just a sack rate of just 3 per cent. small sample size yada, yada, yada, that's still not great. It should be said that the Bearcats did hurry Henry nine times. So in his 36 dropbacks he was sacked or hurried on 28% of the time. It's still so early that we don't know anything, about anything, not really but UC will need to convert some of those hurries into sacks.
That being said this is a perfect opportunity for the Bearcats defensive line to pile up the sacks. Even with Ted Karras coming back from injury the Illini don't have a great offensive line. Most pre season publications ranked the Illini as the worst in the Big 10. Yes, even worse than Purdue. But the passing game is far more important to the success of Nathan Scheelhaase and the rest of the offense.
This is the game for Silverberry Mouhon, Brad Harrah and company to show up. If the Bearcats defensive line can dominate the engagement up front and apply consistent pressure to Scheelhaase, particularly with pressure from the middle of pocket they will have their finger on the pulse of the offense. Today is the day for it.

Michigan's Controversial Emergency Manager Law: A panel discussion on fundamental issues of governance
Policy Talks @ the Ford School
Michigan's new "Emergency Manager" law (Public Act 4 of 2011, the Local Government and School District Fiscal Accountability Act) has garnered national attention and ignited debate on fundamental issues of democratic governance. Among the law's most controversial aspects is the transfer of power from local elected officials to unelected Emergency Managers, providing them the ability to make sweeping changes to local government, including the power to terminate collective bargaining agreements. Proponents of the law argue that it encourages local actors to make difficult decisions themselves, negotiating local agreements in order to avoid a state take-over. In cases where that fails, proponents argue that the law provides critical alternatives to municipal bankruptcy. Opponents argue that the law is undemocratic and unconstitutional, and they have launched efforts to overturn the Act.[More]

Not many people are thinking about baseball in late January, with snow piled on the ground, basketball and hockey seasons in full swing, and football's Super Bowl less than a week away.
But more than 20 baseball enthusiasts gathered at the Baseball Hall of Fame's Bullpen Theatre on Jan. 29, to participate in the second annual "SABR Day.''
SABR (pronounced "saber''), an acronym for the Society for American Baseball Research, was founded in Cooperstown on Aug. 10, 1971.
Cliff Kachline, historian of the Baseball Hall of Fame at the time, hosted a gathering of 16 serious baseball fans and historians at the National Baseball Library on that day, and an organization was formed.
As it approaches its 40th anniversary, SABR boasts nearly 7,000 members worldwide, with more than 50 local chapters in North America, Europe and Asia. SABR has had 39 annual conventions throughout the U.S. and Canada, and produced scores of publications.
SABR Day was conceived as a day for all local chapters to meet for a "hot stove'' gathering, helping diehard baseball fans make it through the long winter.
After many informal gatherings over the years, the Utica-Cooperstown SABR chapter was formally organized in 2000, with Cliff Kachline still a vital presence. After Cliff's death on June 28, 2010, the chapter was renamed in his honor.
The Jan. 29 local meeting was to include video-conferencing with two other SABR groups. Technical difficulties cut off the Cleveland connection, but Cooperstown was hooked up with San Francisco for nearly two hours.
A tour guide for the San Francisco Giants gave locals a virtual tour of AT&T Park, and shared a highlight video of the 2010 World Series, during which the Giants defeated the Texas Rangers for the world championship.
Afterward, Hall of Fame education program staffers Anna Wade and Julie Wilson, along with Librarian Jim Gates, shared World Series and Giants' artifacts and displays with the San Francisco group.
Before the interactive program, the Kachline chapter had brief presentations by several of its members. Dick Hunt of Clinton, (president of the chapter) and Cooperstown organizer Jeff Katz discussed the chapter and the day's agenda.
Peter Henrici spoke about quirks in early Hall of Fame voting, and noted that it was the 75th anniversary of the very first Hall election.
Rich Cohen of Hamilton spoke about former Giants' owner Peter McGowan, who gave great cooperation in various events to honor 1904-14 Giants' pitcher and Hamilton native Hooks Wiltse.
Jim Gates talked about various projects and events involving both SABR and the Hall. I delivered a challenging trivia quiz created by "Horsehide Trivia'' quiz-master Scott Brandon for the occasion.
The Cliff Kachline chapter meets three or four times a year, and visitors are welcome. The next meeting is set for Sunday, July 24, Hall of Fame Induction day, at 6:30 p.m.
at Tillapaugh's Funeral Home in Cooperstown. For further information about the local group, contact Jeff Katz at email@example.com; and about the organization itself, visit the website at SABR.org.
BILL DEANE is a Cooperstown resident and longtime SABR member.

Woodstock's freshman state representative was one of four legislators who voted against an ethics bill that passed overwhelmingly in the Georgia House of Representatives.
Michael Caldwell (R-Woodstock), who represents Georgia House District 20, was one of four lawmakers who voted against House Bill 142, which ban lobbyists gifts from individual state lawmakers.
Caldwell was joined by another Cherokee County freshman Rep. Scot Turner (R-Holly Springs), in his opposition to the bill.
South Georgia Rep. Delvis William Dutton (R-Glenvville) and Rep. Charles Gregory (R-Kennesaw) also voted against he measure.
The legislation, which now goes to the Georgia Senate, still allows lobbyists to pay for the dinners or gifts of committees, caucuses and other organized groups. It also includes exemptions for travel funded by lobbyists.
However, it bans lobbyists for picking up the tab for events such as golfing, tickets to sporting events and private dinners. Also, the bill mandates any individual, paid or unpaid as lobbyists, to pay for an indentification badge.
Those who are unpaid and lobby at the state capitol for no more than five days do not have to register.
Tell us: what do you think of Caldwell's opposition to House Bill 142?
Caldwell noted that while the bill had the best of intentions, "I believe that forcing unpaid citizens who are not making expenditures on legislators is a violation of their constitutional right to petition their governing officials, regardless of whether or not they are representing a group."
"As one of a very small list of legislators in our House of Representatives who has always refused lobbyist gifts and contributions I am an advocate of reforming the system, but not at the price of Georgians' constitutional rights," he added.
Turner stated the cornerstone of his public service asks two questions: is what is he doing ethical and if it's constitutional.
While House Bill 142 had "noble steps in the direction of ethics reform," he said he couldn't betray his promise to protect the rights guaranteed in the United States Constitution and the Georgia Constitution.
Voting in favor of H.B. 142, he added, would amount to "placing restrictions on volunteer citizen activists' ability to associate with a group and to exercise their right to petition their government."
"I will continue to make ethics reform a fundamental goal of my work at the state capitol," he added. "I will also continue to make our constitutional rights the highest virtues worth protecting.
Turner added he will continue to be a transparent lawmaker and vow to never "accept a penny from a lobbyist."

Panic Attacks and Panic Disorder (cont.)
Exams and Tests
You may be diagnosed with panic disorder if you have at least two unexpected panic attacks along with fear or worry about having another panic attack and avoiding situations that may trigger it.
The doctor will ask you questions about your symptoms. He or she will listen to your heart and check your blood pressure. You may get blood tests. The doctor may need to rule out other physical conditions that have symptoms similar to panic disorder, such as a heart attack, mitral valve prolapse, or hyperthyroidism.
Treatment Overview
Successful treatment reduces how many panic attacks you have and how often you have them. It lowers the anxiety you feel because of the fear of future attacks. And it improves the quality of your life. Treatment includes:
Unfortunately, many people don't seek treatment for anxiety disorders. You may not seek treatment because you think the symptoms aren't bad enough. Or maybe you think that you can work things out on your own. But getting treatment is important.
If you need help deciding whether to see your doctor, see some reasons why people don't get help and how to overcome them.
If your panic attacks were caused by a specific trigger, such as a medicine reaction, you may not need treatment after the trigger has been removed. In this case, that would mean stopping the medicine with the help of your doctor.
But sometimes panic attacks caused by outside factors can continue after the trigger has been removed. They may turn into panic disorder.
Panic attacks may also start suddenly without a known trigger.
Recurring panic attacks
You may have mild to severe panic attacks off and on for years, especially if you also have agoraphobia (avoiding places where you fear another attack will occur).3
Even after treatment is stopped because the attacks appear to be under control, attacks can suddenly return. Learn your early warning signs and triggers so you can seek treatment early.
If your panic attacks get too severe or happen too often, you may need to be hospitalized until they are under control. You also may need a brief hospital stay if you have panic attacks along with another health condition, such as agoraphobia or depression. Panic attacks combined with these conditions can be harder to treat.
Ongoing treatment
An important part of ongoing treatment is making sure that you are taking your medicine as prescribed. Often people who feel better after using medicine for a period of time may believe they are "cured" and no longer need treatment. But when medicine is stopped, symptoms usually return. So it's important to continue the treatment plan.
You will be continually checked to see if you have other conditions linked with panic disorder, such as depression or problems with drugs or alcohol. These conditions will also need treatment.

Bailey set to miss out on Ashes spot (From Romsey Advertiser)

Bailey set to miss out on Ashes spot
Updated 5:26pm Tuesday 23rd April 2013 in Sport
HAMPSHIRE'S George Bailey is expected to be overlooked when Australia's Ashes squad is named tomorrow.
Shaun Marsh is set to fill one of the spare batting spots, with the uncapped Bailey overlooked But Glenn Maxwell, who impressed in a t20 stint for Hampshire last year, is set to be included.
Brad Haddin, 35, will be Michael Clarke's vice-captain after Shane Watson stood down at the end of last week, with younger men such as Dave Warner and Ed Cowan are not considered ready for the job.
It has been suggested Haddin could potentially play as a specialist No.6 batsman with Matthew Wade at No.7 and keeping wicket.
The Ageas Bowl International Cricket Academy's Ashton Agar, a 19 year-old slow left-armer, is being tipped as the second Ashes spinner behind Nathan Lyon, having already been called up to Australia's previous Test squad despite having made only six first-class appearances.
His West Australian coach Justin Langer has likened him to Kiwi star Daniel Vettori.
"Ashton reminds me very much of a young Vettori, he is very loose in the way he bowls, bats and fields," Langer said.
"He spins the ball, he loops it up, and he is looking to take wickets."
Australia's Ashes fast bowling battery is largely predictable.
Peter Siddle will join James Pattinson and Mitchell Starc, with Queenslander Ryan Harris to win a spot after a strong return from injury.
Jackson Bird appears to have edged ahead of Mitchell Johnson, while bowling all-rounder James Faulkner has been mentioned.

Provided by LCU
LUBBOCK, Texas (May 13, 2013) – Megan Sullivan and Ashton Bell each went 3-for-4 with three runs-batted-in and their performances helped top-seeded and No.2 Lubbock Christian University open their play in the Lubbock Bracket of the NAIA National Championship Opening Round with a 9-5 win over fourth-seeded Northwood University (Texas) Monday afternoon at a packed PlainsCapital Park.
Bethany Armstrong put the Knights on the scoreboard first, hitting a sacrifice fly to plate Taylor Jones for a 1-0 lead. LCU responded in the home half of the inning with three runs off five hits, sending seven batters to the plate. All five hits were singles, with Sullivan, Stephanie Rendon and Bell each driving in a run with their hits for a 3-1 lead. Meagan Flores led off the second inning with her third home run of the season and the solo shot cut the LCU lead to 3-2. In the bottom of the third inning, Bell followed a trio of LCU singles with their first extra-base hit of the game, which was a double to left-centerfield to drive in a pair of runs. LCU scored three runs in the inning and led 6-2. Sullivan connected on a tape-measuring shot in the fourth inning, blasting a two-run home run over the scoreboard in left-centerfield. Her ninth home run of the season extended LCU's lead to 8-2. The final run for LCU was scored in the bottom of the fifth inning, with Kirstie Cochran singling in Faith Koria, who led off the inning with a triple. Northwood made things interesting in the seventh inning sending nine batters to the plate. Three runs were scored with two outs, including a two-run single by Kaylan Pruitt before the Lady Chaps completed the final out to claim the victory.
Bell and Sullivan were joined by Rendon to lead the team with three hits. Rendon was 3-for-3 with two runs-batted-in. The Knights were led at the plate by Jones (3-for-4) and Armstrong (3-for-3), who each had three hits. Armstrong and Pruitt each drove in two runs in the loss. Pitcher Megan Spence claimed the loss (13-3) for Northwood. She allowed eight runs off 12 hits in 3.2 innings. Courtney McGee started in the circle for LCU. She allowed five runs on 11 hits in seven innings pitched. The 11 hits allowed by LCU was the most allowed over a 43-game stretch (Mar. 7 at Oklahoma Baptist). The five earned runs allowed was the most allowed over a 23-game span (Mar. 23 vs. St. Gregory's).
Northwood (29-18) falls into an elimination game and will play Tuesday at 2 p.m. against No.24 Houston-Victoria (Texas). The winner of that game will move into a 5 p.m. elimination game Tuesday to face the losing team of Tuesday's 11 a.m. game between Lubbock Christian (56-7) and Friends (Kan.). The winner of the contest pitting LCU and Friends advances into Wednesday's bracket championship game.

"Primetime" Story Prompts Ethics Debate
Apr 27, 2006 — Franklin County District Attorney Derek Champagne says it's too late to file criminal charges against a Vermontville man videotaped while hitting and slapping his 15-year-old daughter. But Champagne says state and local officials are reviewing whether three children still living in the home of Joe and Lynn Nelson are receiving proper care. Last Friday, the ABC news magazine "Primetime" broadcast footage of the Nelson home that included scenes of physical and emotional violence. The footage aired as part of a documentary on stepfamilies struggling with children from separate marriages. The broadcast prompted a public outcry. As Brian Mann reports, it has also triggered a new debate over the ethics of journalism.

"Buffer Zones" for Sex Offenders Can Have Unintended Consequences
by Greg Warner
Apr 12, 2006 — A bill now being considered in Albany would ban the highest-risk sex offenders - level 3 - from living within a quarter mile of schools and day care centers. The bill has passed the Senate, but is still stuck in committee in the Assembly. One councilman in Ogdensburg says it's too important to wait. He's proposed a city-wide law, even stricter than the state version. It would bar all sex offenders from living within 2000 feet of schools, day care centers, and also parks and playgrounds--essentially restricting them to the very fringes of the city. It's not the first such law. Similar legislation has been passed in Buffalo, and Amherst New York, and around the country. But as Gregory Warner reports, the laws can have unintended consequences.

Armed Police Officers were outside of the Lancaster Aquatic Center after a teenage girl said a man tried to lure her into his car yesterday while she waited for a ride home after swim practice.
UK Police said the man, who was driving a black, older model Honda Accord with dark tinted windows and round taillights, went up to a 13-year-old girl.
The girl reported that the man said, "You look cold. How about a ride home?" She says when she told him no and he continued to ask her. So ran away into the Aquatic Center and told her coach about what happened.
Tonight, Police took extra precautions by putting officers outside the pool entrance when the swimmers were picked up.
Parents we talked to say they never felt like their children were in danger when dropping them off at the Aquatic Center. But many of them said this reported incident has brought up safety talk with their children.

AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. home prices rose in January at the fastest pace since the summer of 2006, just before the housing bubble burst. The gain shows the housing recovery is strengthening ahead of the spring buying season.
The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index climbed 8.1 percent in the 12 months ending in January That's up from a 6.8 annual gain in December. Prices rose in all 20 cities, led by a 23 percent gain in Phoenix.
Prices rose in 11 of 20 cities on a month-over-month basis. Those numbers are not seasonally adjusted and reflect the slower winter buying period.

Online Courses:
Right now I am not taking any online course but when I do decide to I will let you know how the classes are. From previous experience I liked the online courses you worked at your own time and you were able balance life.
Academic Flexibility:
I like being here the classes are small the teacher's are informative the staff is very kind and the students help each other. They do hands on learning and they also have career service that helps you find externship sites along with helping you get hired on a job.
Overall Experience:
It's a school to obtain a quick diploma or certificate, I wouldn't risk a degree now that I know any attempt to further my education requires me to take my currect and previous classes over because they don't transfer.
Student Body:
We want to have fun and interact but we're not given much opportunity, especially on the weekend. There aren't very many places for us to "shadow" or see first hand the work environment of our majors, but we manage the best we can.
No the cleanest place, not very much access on weekend.
Campus Resources:
Not available on weekend for weekend students.
Campus Resources:
The worst slowest network. and Wi-Fi, forget it!
Academic Flexibility:
They try to help where they can but very limited.
Academic Experience:
I enjoy the weekend schedule.
Academic Experience:
Professors aren't completely familiar with teaching.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
Don't explain money or process in detail.
Career Services:
I gave 3 stars because I haven't experienced.
Campus Resources:
The wireless speed sucks if we are all on the same thing it is very slow. They need a faster internet provider. The computer lab is open on Saturday from 9-1pm.
Campus Resources:
The library had more books on topics that I needed.
Career Services:
I have not really worked with career services yet, even tho I believe I am suppose to. They need to be really involved on getting to know what we are interested at working at and what extern sites we prefer.
nothing really from the schools that I attended.
Academic Experience:
I would have to say it is a start for me. I always wanted to work in the health care and medical field. A lot of homework and studying and understanding things in the medical field is a plus because you cannot afford to make a mistake even though no one is perfect. I like doing the hands on work like giving injections and doing vital signs taking blood pressure and counting respirations etc.
Academic Experience:
Mainly health care and business careers. Getting train to work in a clinic or physicians office or business office is the real nice thing so that we know what to do when we get to extern and a career.
Online Courses:
I do not have online classes for this course, I prefer the hands on in classroom training.
Student Body:
I go to school on the weekends, so I do not see a student body.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
I don't believe they knew what they were doing since I did transfer. The tuition from the previous school is higher than this one and somehow I owe a balance which I should not be.
Academic Flexibility:
Transferring credits were easy it was the process of getting all my paperwork that was transferred to the school already. I wanted to start a month after I relocated and it took and extra month and a half.
Academic Experience:
i am a very good student but i sometimes struggle which is normal..
Tuition & Financial Aid:
Financial aid process allowed me to attend school.
Campus Resources:
The library is always quite, makes studying easy.

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear has called for a special session of the state legislature to deal with legislative and judicial redistricting.
The session would begin on August 19.
Every decade, lawmakers have to draw new district boundaries in adapting to population changes found by the U.S. Census Bureau. Lawmakers came up with one plan last year, but the Kentucky Supreme Court struck it down, saying the proposed districts were unconstitutional because they were not balanced by population.
Since then, two federal lawsuits have been filed on behalf of Kentucky residents who claim inaction by lawmakers has left them without adequate representation in the state Legislature.

A Colorado woman was impaled by a light pole after she crashed because she was texting and driving.
MARSHVILLE, NC (WBTV) - A Monroe woman was fatally shot in a Marshville apartment complex after police believe she was involved in a fight at a club.
Thursday the brother-in-law of the victim, Maria Rochelle Jordan, 34, turned himself in to police and was charged with her murder.
Jerome Waters, 35, is in custody at the Union County Jail under a $500,000.00 bond. He faces charges of second degree murder and possession of firearms charges.
According to Marshville Police Chief Carl Webber, officers were called to an apartment complex along Elaine Street on Sunday March 4 at 2:30 a.m.
When officers arrived, they found Jordan suffering from gunshot wounds. Jordan was rushed to Carolinas Medical Center-Union where she later died from her injuries.
Chief Webber told WBTV that investigators believe Jordan was involved in a domestic dispute at a club in Marshville earlier in the evening. That argument spilled over into the apartment complex where Jordan was found shot.
Waters has his first court appearance on April 2, 2012, police said.

Tomorrow is almost upon us, and with it, the end of another long dry spell for UFC fans. UFC 154 in Montreal is a solid card, and is finally giving the welterweight division the much needed title bout that has been missing from it's ranks. Montreal is going to be the venue for some great fights tomorrow night, and the sizzling event opener, a bout between hot prospect Steven Siler and Darren Elkins is a fantastic way to kick off an event. With both men on three fight win streaks, you can almost count on a barn burner. After all, one of these guys will be walking away with a broken streak, so you can pretty much bet the farm on this being an all out battle.
I've recently started adding a standard question to my list whenever I interview these guys, and hope to be able to make a running series for our readers, based on the answers I get. The question that begs to be answered is, 'Have you had any street fights, and if so, describe the details.' Recently, I spoke with Darren Elkins, and he had an epic street fight story. Fighting in a men's room is something you see in a movie, or on the pilot episode of Burn Notice. I never expected Darren to come out with this epic tale, but I'm glad he did, so I could share it with you guys. Here's the story:
The last street fight I got into was a bar fight. I don't really go out to bars anymore. Anyway, there was this guy, and he was trying to fight one of my buddies. They ended up having some words. I think they pushed each other, and got kicked out of the bar. We were with a group of people. My wife and all her friends were there.
After we got kicked out, we went to another bar. When we got there, this same guy ended up there and was hitting on my wife and calling her all kinds of names right in front of me, all because she told him she was married. I told him, 'Hey man, you need to get out of here now.' As soon as I saw that he ended up in the same place we did, again, I knew there was going to be trouble. I told him that, and he walked away.
About ten minutes later, I go to the bathroom, and as I'm peeing, the guy sucker punches me. He like runs up and punches me in my face. This happened mid-pee. I was unzipped and everything. I finished up, zipped up, and took another punch in the process. After I zipped up, well, let's just say I beat him up. I pushed him up against the bathroom stall, I hit him with a couple right hands, I kneed him and pretty much stomped his ass.
As I'm punching him in the face, the guy says, 'I'm done.' I'm like, 'What about when I was pissing? Where did these rules come in? What about the rules that you don't f*cking punch somebody when they're at the urinal peeing?' He's like 'I'm done! I'm done!' like that was going to stop me from giving him one more. Now he has rules? No way. I didn't hurt him permanently or anything, I just taught him a lesson about sucker punching people at a urinal. Hopefully that's my last street fight. It was definitely an awkward situation.
The moral to this story? No matter where you are, if you use the bathroom in a public place, especially in a bar, always watch your back. It could save you from a story like this. You can catch Darren tomorrow night as the first fight on the Facebook prelims of the UFC 154 card from Montreal.
You can follow Darren via his Twitter account, @Darren_Elkins


text: 10 Good Reasons to Use an RSS Reader by POPSUGAR Tech 4/21/09 17 Reactions 8 Shares Print 0 3 5 0 0 The web moves fast. In fact, they say one day, it might even move faster than the speed of light. There are millions of articles being published, photos being uploaded, status updates being posted and tweets being tweeted every single day. An RSS reader can help you stay afloat and consume the Internet from one hub — whether you are a casual surfer who uses the web to catch up on email, news and celebrity gossip, or a full fledged Internet junky who spends all day on Flickr, Facebook and reddit. For those of you who are confused, an RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Reader is a web feed aggregator, also known as a feed reader that grabs syndicated web content such as news headlines, blogs, podcasts, and vlogs in a single location for easy viewing. Most geeksugar readers say they're already using a reader, but I know there are a few of you who are still unconvinced. And so, I dedicated this post to you uninitiated and unconvinced. Find out why you should hop on the train. It Will Keep You Organized What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 You can organize your favorite sites into different folders, so all you tech blogs can go in one area and all your celebrity or fitness news sources can go in another. Readers are also great for research and keeping on top of intense densely-written websites you may have to read for work. Source: Getty 1 / 10 It Will Save Time What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A reader reduces the time and effort you'll have to extend checking your favorite websites for updates. Once you are subscribed to a feed, an aggregator is able to check for new content at user-determined intervals and retrieve the update. Also you can easily unsubscribe from a feed if you get tired of a site. Source: Getty 2 / 10 It's Like Email For All the Sites You Read What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Popular RSS Readers include Google Reader, Netvibes, Bloglines and My Yahoo's RSS feature. Once you have decided which Reader you are going to use, you sign up for an account and then look for RSS Reader buttons on your favorite sites and blogs (they are usually orange). You click on those buttons to add content to RSS Reader. It will update throughout the day, giving you the latest content from your favorite sites. You just have to go to your reader and all the news will come to you. Source: Getty 3 / 10 Stay on Top of Your Favorite Shows What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Do you ever miss one of your favorite shows, or worse yet (this happens to me quite often), forget to set your DVR for a series recording of certain shows? Thankfully there's this new tool called mytvrss that will create a personalized RSS feed of all your fave shows that you can't bear to miss! Just go to the site, click on the shows you want in the feed and mytvrss will alert you through the feed the day an episode is aired. 4 / 10 You Can Read News Offline! What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Most readers allow an offline option where you receive updates while online, and then read the sites offline, say during your commute to work or while on a plane. Here's a guide to using Google Reader offline. Source: Getty 6 / 10 You Can Access Your Reader Via Your Phone What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Unlike other phones (ahem, the iPhone), the BlackBerry doesn't provide instant access to things like Twitter and your favorite blogs, track packages, and see weather forecasts, but with a free app called Viigo you can have a full RSS reader on your phone. And once you become a registered user, you can specify your interests to receive customized alerts and updates. If you are an iPhone or other smartphone user you can access your reader via the web. 6 / 10 You Can Secretly Follow (Stalk) Friends Online What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Do you want to follow someone's updates on Twitter, but don't necessarily want them to see that you're following them? Or maybe you're reluctant to join Twitter, but still would like to see what someone is tweeting. You can actually add someone's Twitter feed to your RSS reader. Just go to the page of the person you want to invisibly follow, and you'll see the RSS feed symbol underneath the people they're following (alternatively, if you're using Firefox, you can just click the blue RSS symbol in the nav bar). Just click that and you'll add their updates to your reader, just like any other blog's posts! Invisibility cloak achieved. You can do the same thing with personal blogs, Flickr accounts, or any web page that offers an RSS feed. 7 / 10 You Can Add Google Reader to Your iGoogle Page What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you've got a ton of feeds in your Google reader and you can never find the time to read, you may want to install a nifty widget that allows you to view your Google Reader items on your iGoogle page! Read any RSS or Atom feed right from iGoogle, having the option to keep stories new or mark as read. 8 / 10 You Can Get Weather Updates What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Websites like the WeatherBug and The Weather Channel supply RSS Feeds; you supply your location, and then add it to your RSS Reader of choice (I like both Google Reader and Bloglines). Oh and San Francisco? It's rain, rain, and more rain. And then it might rain. 9 / 10 Share Your Favorite Stories With Friends What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Most readers offer simple share options that allow you to click on a story and make it available to your friends or let you click on a button and send an email to friends when you come across that video. The sharing options are easier than copying and pasting the url into an email and sending that to friends. 11 / 10 0 3 5 0 0 Read More RSS ReaderGeek Tip Geek Tip 6 Free Apps Essential to Surviving Black Friday 11/28/13 31 Days of Spring Cleaning: Organize Spare Cables in Style 3/22/13 Never, Ever Forget to Clean a Cell Phone 3/03/13 The Best IFTTT Recipes For Weight-Loss Resolutions 1/03/13 3 Ways to Hide Your Online Shopping From the Boss on Cyber Monday 11/26/12 Travel Tips For the Holidays 11/20/12 Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

This fight was ignited when Eric Boulton lined up pest Zac Rinaldo for a hard hit inside the Flyers zone, and Jay Rosehill took exception.
The topic of enforcers' value came up earlier, and WebBard commented how fun it is to have enforcers entertain when the team is, um, not good. Naturally Cairns came up. You want a guy to stir it up in an inter-conference game? Cairns was your man... Announcer: "Yeesh. I don't think Bootland wanted any part of Cairns to tell you the truth." True dat.
Trying to put a grade on the season of Mitch Fritz, the towering, 258-lb., little-used giant.
