|Big fans go in big arena for cooling
|Saturday, August 03, 2013 12:21 AM
Information submitted
Two large 20-foot diameter fans have been installed in the arena to help cool the animals (and spectators) for the myriad of events held in the large building.
The fan contractor, Big Ass Fans of Lexington, Ky., is known worldwide as the innovator in large fans and moving air. The fans are used in industrial, commercial, farm, ranch and convention center applications worldwide.
The fans were generously donated by United Equity President Jackie Seibert of Delphos; Todd Gable of Gable Family Farms, Delphos; Eric Fritz, Bobcat of Lima; Potash Corporation, Lima; Todd Schaub of S&S Volvo, Lima; and Dan Kimmet, Elida.
"These individuals saw a need for cooling in the arena building and wanted to help the Fair make this project happen. We sincerely appreciate their generosity. We couldn't have made this happen without their help," Allen County Fair General Manager David Grimm said.
Fair Director Kimmet from Elida, who helped facilitate the program was pleased.
"These fans really move a lot of air. It's amazing what two fans can do in a 7,200-square-foot building," he said.

New Zealand
Cycling in New Zealand is an absolute must for everyone who enjoys riding a bike, as quiet roads lead you through ever - changing landscapes. Start the morning spinning along a spectacular coastline while keeping an eye out for seals and whales. Next, stop for your first hokey pokey (that's ice cream to you, mate!) of the day before you head inland, and in just a few kilometers you'll find yourself pedaling through a refreshingly cool rainforest of towering trees and gigantic ferns. Before this magical day's ride is through you'll be surrounded by snow-capped peaks and alpine views. Combine this picturesque setting with warm Kiwi hospitality, rich Maori history and gourmet European-style cuisine and you have all the ingredients for the bicycling vacation you've always dreamed about.
We offer bicycle tours on the South Island and the North Island. Both islands offer their own unique pedaling experience. On the South Island you'll discover spectacular alpine scenery, glaciers, fiords and deserted beaches. On the North Island pedal the beautiful quiet back roads, and enjoy the differing landscapes from the volcanic plateaus to the coastal bicycling on the Coromandel Peninsula. Either way, you can't go wrong while traveling through this cycling mecca.

For the price and function nothing beats this. I like the top valve part, it stops the dirt from going into your water. I use it mostly on my road bike. The grip feels great for squirting out water while riding. I've been using this for over 4 months and the bottle still feels strong and the valve on top doesn't leak.

In the spring of 2009, photographer Stacey Ward Kelly took a series of digital photographs of New York City and sent a selection of these images to artists asking them to use her work to create a piece of mail art. Twenty-three artists participated by choosing one or more of her images and created a variety of mail art pieces that manipulated, collaged, poured resin onto or otherwise enhanced or altered Ward Kelly's work. Some of the original photographs are featured in the book along with each mail art piece that was created for the project.
PHOTOS ENCLOSED is a collaborative mail art project that began in 2004 in Oakland, CA. The photography and collaborative mail art featured in this book documents the second mail art project in this series.

Kingfishing has become the hottest saltwater tournament competition. Thousands of anglers enter their boats in events from the mid-Atlantic all the way around to Texas. As you'd expect, the consistent winners take it very seriously. They must fish 20 to 30 tournaments each season in many different venues and myriad conditions. Obviously, top boats must be rugged and rigged especially for kingfishing. But the unique kingfishing features incorporated into today's winning boats can be adapted to improve the productivity of your fishing boat because, above all, they're based in common sense.
Several thousand boats with this common mission compete each year in search of the huge payoffs associated with winning a kingfish tournament. These boats must:
* Run competitively among a pack of as many as 1,000 boats at a time into unfamiliar waters.
* Quickly capture an adequate bait supply.
* Navigate to a location as far as 100 miles away.
* Catch the largest single kingfish possible.
* Return within time constraints regardless of sea conditions.
* Knowing the secrets of how my Gatorbait - a 32-foot Wellcraft Scarab - and boats like it on the SKA circuit rig for success can help anyone catch more and larger kings.
To run 100 miles, fish, and get back within the time limit, kingfish boats obviously need to be fast, so lots of horsepower are the norm. Gatorbait gets its speed from twin 300-hp Mercurys. Regardless of power selected, jack plates allow the operator to adjust engine height for varying sea conditions, making the boat handle and perform better. Tilt and trim come standard on most outboard engines. Using the engine mount as a fulcrum point, this type of adjustment raises the bow of the boat as you trim the drive out and lowers the bow as you trim in. A jack plate, on the other hand, moves the entire engine and mount up and down vertically. In calm water, you should trim the jack plate up as far as possible (without exceeding the maximum height where intakes on the lower unit get enough water to cool the engine properly). Raising the jack plate results in reduced drag, increased rpm and speed, and better fuel economy. Conversely, running in rough water, you should lower the jack plate for better handling, slower speed on plane and less cavitation. Other jack-plate benefits include the ability to completely lift one engine out of the water to run on the other and a wider range of propellers to choose from to maximize speed, range or rough-water handling.
Dave Workman of Team Donzi and this year's SKA Angler of the Year offers one other piece of advice. "In addition to big horsepower, be sure you have the fuel capacity to go along with it. It takes some serious fuel to run 100 or more miles and back at 60 mph."
Most kingfish boats have fish finders, chart plotters, radars and VHFs with liquid-crystal displays (LCD) because they can be seen easily in bright sunlight. LCD units weigh less and are more waterproof and more compact than cathode-ray tube units. A total system from a single manufacturer often provides uniformity in programming and buttons, which makes using the equipment much easier in adverse conditions. My chart plotter, fish finder and radar all use common keypads, making them very user friendly. I also find that I experience fewer integration problems when all the instruments "speak the same language."
High-quality electronics make navigating in unfamiliar waters to search out new fishing grounds in a limited amount of time (which we do on a weekly basis) much more efficient.
You'll find this level of electronics worth the investment.
Our fish finder includes a side-looking option and split-screen zoom, which allows us to easily pinpoint fish and bait at specific depths. Radar, critical when running in fog or at night, lets us readily navigate in and around severe storms on open water as well. Chart plotters have simplified the navigation process immensely by providing a convenient visual reference of the boat and its location on an electronic map. The old-fashioned method of plotting everything on a chart just wouldn't work running in rough water at high speeds the way we do. It's neither practical nor fast enough. With the plotter, I can put the cursor on a chosen destination (a waypoint) and push a button. Then I can just follow the boat across the screen like driving a car down a highway. For fishing a certain spot, the chart can be zoomed down in scale, allowing marks to be placed when the fish finder says we're over bait or fish. The operator can easily navigate the boat to and over the exact same spot time after time by simply looking at the screen and steering the boat to the marks.
In today's health-conscious world, it's important to have a source of shade when you're constantly on the water. The T-top provides that; however, we've designed our top to be much more than a nautical parasol. It must provide unobstructed 360-degree vision and access around the boat as well as be able to store several critical items. When you run boats in the kinds of weather conditions we do, it's not good enough to have life vests stowed forward in a cuddy or at the bottom of a locker. We store our life vests directly over the helmsman's head under the T-top, immediately accessible in case of emergency.
We also weld heavy-duty handholds to the back of the top for passengers behind the helm station. Since the combination of wet hands and smooth metal doesn't offer a secure grip (and requires much more energy to hold on), we wrap each of these grab bars with 1/8-inch twine to provide a non-slip handhold.
We make sure both the top and our installation are much beefier than what comes straight from the factory. Running at such high speeds in rough seas really puts some extraordinary stresses on a T-top. We can't afford to have it come loose or break underway.
Another feature totally unique to kingfish boats is kingfish-style "outriggers." Instead of installing outriggers, kingfishermen weld rod holders to the T-top so the rods extend over and parallel to the water. These holders allow baits to be deployed and retrieved more easily than running lines through regular outriggers. Additionally, they weigh less than full-size outriggers and suffer less momentum damage running at high speeds in heavy seas. Finally, rods can be easily reached from the helm.
I don't know many kingfish tournament boats without electric downriggers. Obviously, it's ridiculous to think that all feeding kingfish come to the surface. To increase the odds of catching fish, we need to cover more of the water column. Although most pros use electric downriggers, manuals certainly suffice for casual fishing. Most tournament anglers prefer 100-pound-test mono line vs. the steel cable included as standard with the downriggers. When fishing in close quarters around other boats (normally the case in competition), any fishing line attached to a hooked fish that comes in contact with your monofilament downrigger cable will cut the larger of the two lines. A steel cable, on the other hand, will instantly result in a lost fish. With mono cable, all that's lost is a downrigger weight - a small price to pay for good sportsmanship. Additionally, a slowly trolled steel cable traveling through the water produces an annoying hum while mono remains relatively silent. At the moment, Penn and Scotty make electric downriggers with an auto-stop feature that works with mono cable. Most downriggers provide a rod holder right on the downrigger; this allows sharp turns in a strong current without tangling lines in the props.
Short of long-range boats in California with decks 10 feet above the water, professional kingfish anglers probably use the longest gaffs around; most run 12 feet long. Why a 12-footer? Because it's the maximum length the rules allow. Otherwise, we'd be using 20-foot gaffs. Kingfish gaffs run longer due to the use of lightweight 15- to 20-pound-test line and a very short (12- to 18-inch) leaders. Big kingfish get very shy around lines, leaders and boats. Getting a tournament-winning kingfish within reach of a standard gaff is a long and difficult process. I'm not saying it can't be done, but many more fish are lost at or near the boat where the fish becomes spooked and makes a sudden run which often pulls the hook or breaks the line.
Using a 12-foot gaff requires some practice. Many anglers start with an 8-footer and move up in length as they gain experience. Stowing a 12-foot gaff can be almost as difficult as using it. In most cases, the gaff can be mounted under the cockpit bolsters. Also, always carry a spare.
Fish oil has long been used to supplement a good chum bag or, in some cases, instead of chum. Putting a fish-oil slick behind your boat offers several advantages in addition to the obvious scent trail to attract predators. Perhaps the most important added advantage concerns the visibility of your baits. Fish oil takes the friction off the surface of the water. When deployed correctly, it leaves a calm, slick area behind the boat, allowing the angler to easily see all baits on the surface as well as any fish in the spread.
Typically, kingfish anglers put the oil into an intravenous (IV) bag/dripper system placed on the outside of the boat. Problems with this system include the fact that these bags hold only one quart of oil, and refilling an already used IV bag becomes messy and wasteful. Storage is also problematic; fish oil feels and acts like grease and smells terrible. Fish-oil scent lasts forever. Consider anything it comes in contact with totally ruined. I've solved these problems by using a fish-oil dispenser made of PVC pipe and fittings with clear tubing that holds about a gallon. Fish oil can be stored in the dispenser between fishing trips, and a T-valve sets the desired rate of flow. Such a unit should be mounted on the back of the transom (outside the cockpit) and the tube run out of the splash well alongside or between the engines. While slow trolling, the oil is dispersed by mixing with turbulent water around the propellers. The total cost of this unit runs about the same as the IV bag from a medical supply store.
Some boats also mount an electric meat grinder to a rod holder and grind fresh chum as needed.
Every bit as important to professional kingfishing as the engines, a live baitwell must be big enough to hold enough bait for a full day and efficient enough to keep baits healthy whether running, trolling or drifting. Rigging a baitwell properly requires some prescience - raw-water baitwell pumps will undoubtedly break at a critical (and inconvenient) moment. In general (and for tournament kingfishing purposes), baitwells fall into three categories: 30 gallons or less (purely decoration); 40 gallons (adequate); 50 gallons or more (optimum). Workman provides a well-accepted rule of thumb for any baitwell. "Figure 1 1/2 baits per gallon of water. So a 50-gallon well should be able to accommodate about 75 baits. But if the water gets really warm, cut that back to one bait per gallon," he says.
Rig wells with a minimum of two pumps. Many anglers install three low-capacity pumps (700 to 1,000 gph), which allow them to adjust the intake flow to match the amount of bait they have in the well while still saving amperage for other accessories.
Also, drainage is as important as intake. A well that fills only from the top and drains only from the bottom won't hold enough bait nor keep it lively enough. Each well should have a minimum of three drains: two at the top on each side, and one at the bottom. Water should enter near the bottom of the tank in such a way as to cause clockwise water circulation (if used in the Northern Hemisphere). Baitwells should also be round or oval with no sharp edges or protruding fittings.
Leaning posts with rocket launchers have been standard equipment on center-console boats for years. Typically, the driver and one passenger stand between the console and leaning post while underway. In calm conditions, sitting atop the leaning post is also possible. But in rough seas at high speed, the driver and companion must hold on for dear life to the wheel, throttle and handholds. The bolster seat, long used in sport and racing boats, has found its way onto kingfishing boats. You'll find this style of seat both comfortable and very supportive whether running flat out or slow-trolling. The heavily padded sides restrict lateral movement, the seat's major advantage over a leaning post. Additionally, dropout bottoms allow you to sit or stand while underway.
The specialized features we include on our boats do much more than simply allow us to run 60 mph through rough seas to catch fish. Rather, they represent common-sense refinements. Your live bait will last longer. You'll come home from a day of fishing offshore and be less tired. You'll lose fewer fish alongside the boat. You'll navigate more easily and attract more fish to your boat. You don't have to be a tournament kingfisherman to appreciate any of these attributes. You just have to want to fish smarter.
Kingfishing has become the hottest saltwater tournament competition. Thousands of anglers enter their boats in events from the mid-Atlantic all the way around to Texas. As you'd expect, the consistent winners take it very seriously. They must fish 20 to 30 tournaments each season in many different venues and myriad conditions.

An eight-year-old Middle Tennessee boy is working to do his part to help area homeless people this season by collecting sleeping bags. Josiah Rizo began the Operation Sleep Tight Foundation last year after being unsatisfied with his mother's response when he asked what homeless people did in cold and rainy weather. "We talked a little bit and I asked what do you think we should do and he said let's do blankets or sleeping bags," mother Jackie Rizo said. After collecting more than 50 sleeping bags last year for those in need, Josiah decided to double that number this year. As of Wednesday morning he had collected 95 sleeping bags. "I want to give them hope," Josiah told Nashville's News 2.
His mother added, "I didn't realize it would get this big but I'm so glad it has." Steven Stacey was among those who received a donated sleeping bag on Wednesday. "It's pretty rough sometimes unless you find someone closed-end, but it's pretty rough," Stacy said. "I think it's wonderful that at that age they're smart. That's wonderful." For more information on Operation Sleep Tight or how to donate to the cause, visit their Facebook page.

About Camera Shutter Release:
- Camera Basics: The two main components that work together on a camera is the aperture and shutter speed. The aperture controls how much light is let into the camera body, hitting the film/sensors, while the shutter speed dictates how long the light lasts
- Shutter Speed: Within the camera body is a mechanism that controls how long the film/sensors are exposed to the light. In low light situations, the shutter is open for longer. In bright light, the shutter opens and closes in a fraction of a second
- Shutter Release Cables: A shutter release cable connects to the camera and allows the photographer to take a photograph without having to touch the camera. In manual, 35 mm cameras, with no electronic controls, a wire with in the cable was pushed out to press down on the shutter release button. In modern cameras with electronic controls, the shutter release cable sends an electrical signal telling the camera to operate the shutter and take the photograph.
- Low Light: In low light situations in which the shutter in the camera remains open for a longer period of time, any movement of the camera during the exposure will result in a fuzzy or blurry photograph. A tripod is employed in low light situations and a shutter release cable is used to further minimize any potential movement of the camera during the exposure
- Other Uses: Portrait photographers will often use a shutter release cable when they take portraits. It is easier for subjects to have a person to connect with when the portrait is being taken than just being asked to sit still, smile and look at the camera. The photographer can easily interact with his subjects, resulting in more natural, relaxed portraits

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - For the first time, the mother of a murdered pregnant Knoxville woman is speaking out.
Brandon Scott Donaldson, 22, faces a second-degree murder charge. He's accused of shooting and killing his girlfriend Marcia Crider on Wednesday, February 13 in East Knoxville. He also faces an attempted second-degree murder charge in for shooting at her mother.
Marcia's mother, Renee Jones was in the car with her daughter at the time of the incident. And she desperately wants her daughter and grandchild's killer to be found.
"I am at harm's way. And that is the only reason I am not speaking," said Jones, about why she had to do an interview over the phone. She says she feels her life is in danger. And she does not know what Donaldson is capable of.
"Not only did he hurt my daughter and grandson, there's no telling who else this man will hurt," she added, about why Donaldson needs to be found and arrested.
On Wednesday, Donaldson was added to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation's Top Ten Most Wanted List.
Knoxville Police say TBI stepped in because of how dangerous they believe Donaldson is.
"We believe he's going to be armed when we locate him. We expect him to possibly engage officers. You never know how someone will react when they are about to be arrested," said Darrell DeBusk with KPD.
He also says they believe locals are helping the criminal.
"We believe strongly that there are people in this area who know where he is. They could possibly even be assisting him to hide," DeBusk said.
Jones says she just wants this to be over. "I just truly want him to be found. I want justice for my daughter," Jones said.
Police believe Donaldson will be found. But they do need the public's help to make that happen. They remind us that he is armed and very dangerous, and must be approached with extreme caution.
Donaldson's criminal history includes a drug charge involving cocaine. He received three years' probation and is also wanted for violating that probation. He is described as a black male with black hair, brown eyes and also goes by "L" or "Brandon Diggs."
He is 6 feet tall and weighs approximately 180 pounds.
Anyone with information on his whereabouts is urged to call the TBI at 1-800-TBI-FIND 911. There is a $1,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.

What do you get for those people on your list who are impossible to buy for? Simple, skip right past the mall and head for the grocery store. Not even the people who have everything could turn down a tasty home made treat for Christmas. Even better, baked gifts give your little elves a chance to pitch in with the preparation.
This year, cap off your holiday baking with a whimsical wintery treat -- a batch of melt-in-your-mouth Mickey snowmen.
Melted caramel candy adds luscious richness to the cocoa goodness of these cookies.
These rich, no-bake morsels are utterly decadent and packed with chocolate-y flavor. Make the night before so they have time to properly set, then unveil and impress your guests.
Use cookie cutters to customize your cookies for the occasion.
Sugar cookies may come in all shapes and sizes, but nothing says Christmas more than cookies dressed up like Santa or a heavenly angel.
With peppermint extract and red food coloring, your kids can turn this simple dough into edible ornaments for the tree.
Use a pastry or plastic bag to squeeze the soft dough into batons. Once baked, the cookies are dipped in melted chocolate and rolled in sprinkles.
Every Christmas, guest contributor Cynthia Caldwell lets her kids leave their mark on these jam-filled cookies.
When you're looking for holiday treats to send to far-flung relatives, here's a cookie that fits the bill.
Instead of mere visions of sugarplums, you and your child can make the real thing with this easy recipe.
Set your kids to snowflake snipping and make our one-of-a-kind wintry snacks.
An edible holiday wreath, what a great idea!
"Mud" has never tasted as good as it does on these snowballs.
Everybody can put their "mark" on these cookies.
A Christmas tree ice-cream sandwich that's just too cute to resist.

FrostByte Media's The Last Vegas Make 'Bad Decisions' On August 28th
PR Log
- May 24, 2012 - FrostByte Media's The Last Vegas Make 'Bad Decisions' On August 28th
Toronto, ON- Frostbyte Media Inc.--The Last Vegas have signed to FrostByte Media to release their fourth full-length album 'Bad Decisions', which is set for a North American street date of August 28th. Produced by Johnny K (Megadeth, Disturbed, 3 Doors Down, Airbourne), the album was recorded in the band's hometown of Chicago and contains the straight-up rock n' roll meets garage/punk rock sound for which the band has come to be known.
Of the new tracks, lead singer Chad Cherry referred to them as "a little more raw, a little more groovy and more Last Vegas than the previous album...", while guitarist Adam Arling declared with DIY fervor, that the album contains, "No samples, loops, backing this, that, whatever a lot of bands do nowadays. Just five guys rocking."
Hailing from Chicago and formed in 2005, The Last Vegas cut their teeth relentlessly playing in support of two independent releases. In 2009, the band burst on to the national scene when Motley's Crue's Nikki Sixx saw them play live in Los Angeles and subsequently co-produced their third album, 'Whatever Gets You Off, which topped the Sleaze Roxx Top 10. More touring followed, including a stint opening Motley Crue's "Saints Of Los Angeles" tour.
Now recharged, with an album that returns to their raw rock n' roll roots, The Last Vegas is ready to hit the road again in support of 'Bad Decisions'. The Onion referred to their sound as "Swaggering, stomping, balls-out guitar rock", while The Chicago Sun-Times declared them to be "Red hot garage-rockers." The Last Vegas is Chad Cherry (vocals), Adam Arling (guitars), Danny Smash (bass), Nate Arling (drums) and Johnny Wator (guitars).

About Asian Restaurants
Asian restaurants have become very popular in recent years. Asian restaurants feature dishes from all over Asia and represent a variety of cultures. Chinese food has been popular with Americans for years. Chinese fast food restaurants and chain restaurants have popped up all over. A popular Chinese fast food chain is Panda Express. They offer a variety of Americanized Chinese dishes that are prepared throughout the day and ready for hungry customers. They offer a choice of fried rice and Chow Mein as well as entrees like orange chicken, beef and broccoli, Kung Pao chicken and sweet and sour pork. Egg rolls, both veggie and chicken, are a popular side dish. American Chinese food is far from the food that Chinese immigrants are used to eating. Americans can taste and enjoy true Chinese dishes by visiting authentic Asian restaurants in Chinatown and other ethnic neighborhoods. Chinese food has been popular with Americans for years, but recently other Asian restaurants have started popping up and they have really struck a chord with diners. They serve dishes from places like Thailand, Japan, Korea and the Philippines. There has been a real demand for Korea BBQ and as a result restaurants have been popping up all over the United States. Korea BBQ differs from Chinese food in many ways. Most Korean BBQ places will allow you to cook your meat at your table. They provide you with thin pieces of marinated meat or chicken and a hot skillet which you use to cook the meat. It is ready to be enjoyed in minutes. Along with your meat you will also receive a few side dishes. These are authentic and traditional Korean side dishes. Rice is also provided.

The 2006 Congressional elections were a turning point for
And the current round of negotiations in the World Trade Organization (WTO), after nearly six years, has stalled.
The conventional wisdom, which dominates the major media, is that this turn away from "free trade" and toward "protectionism" is tragic and dangerous for Americans. But is it? First, let us dispense with the marketing term "free trade," which is completely deceptive. The WTO, for example, has lowered some barriers to trade but increased others – such as protectionism for the patent monopolies held by pharmaceutical companies. It is not even clear, in a strictly economic calculation, that American consumers have gained more from the WTO's lowering of other trade barriers than they have lost from the higher price of goods due to its protectionism.
This is the proper way to look at changes in trade policy: who gains and who loses. This is also the prediction of standard economic theory: nations can gain from opening to trade, but within countries some gain and others lose. But the "free-traders" always use averages, e.g. "the average household has gained $10,000 from free trade . . . ." Now if a hedge fund manager makes an extra billion dollars, it can raise the average income in his town or suburb quite a bit. But it doesn't do much for others in the area; and in fact it is likely to be at the rest of the public's expense.
Real wages – adjusted for inflation — for the more than 100 million people that make up most of our labor force were just ten percent higher in 2006 than they were in 1973. This is a revolutionary upward redistribution of income, vastly different from the prior 25 years, when real wages increased by 74 percent. How much of this redistribution is due to trade, or more broadly, the "globalization" that includes the movement of production to countries with low wages, repressed labor, and weak environmental regulation?
It turns out that even if only a small part of this wage stagnation is due to globalization, it is more than enough to cancel the gains that the vast majority of Americans have gotten from cheaper imports. In other words, the last three decades of foreign commercial policy have been a net loss for the vast majority of Americans.
Of course if your job is protected from international competition – CEOs, lawyers, doctors, journalists, economists – then lowering other people's wages gives you a bigger piece of the economic pie. No wonder the chattering classes denounce "protectionism" for everyone but themselves.
Looking forward, the World Bank estimates that the gains to the U.S. economy from a successful round of WTO negotiations at between $2.7 and $6.8 billion a year – about one to three weeks' spending on the Iraq war. And we are supposed to be worried if this round collapses?
The conventional wisdom is that there are huge gains from trade, but since benefits are not so visible and are dispersed among many consumers, "protectionists" who might lose jobs prevail against the public interest. The reality is the opposite: the losses are dispersed among the majority of workers through lower wages. The gains are concentrated among the big corporations who own our Congress and lobby for "free trade."

Ricky Seals-Jones, a top tight end recruit from Sealy (Tx.) High School, has committed to the Texas Longhorns. Seals-Jones holds additional offers from LSU, Oklahoma, Notre Dame and Alabama, among others. At 6'5" and 220 pounds, Jones is way too much for the competition to handle at the high school level.
And like many elite athletes in high school, Sealy uses Seals-Jones at the quarterback position. There simply isn't much film available of him playing tight end or receiver. But the athleticism is immediately evident. Seals-Jones is definitely one of the top 20 players I've seen on film at this early juncture in the 2013 cycle, and given his frame and likely college position, he might just be scratching the surface of his potential. With as much motion and formation shifting as Texas likes to employ in its offense, Seals-Jones could cause quite a few headaches for opposing defensive coordinators in the coming years.
It's also interesting to note the recruiting done by Texas commitment Jake Raulerson (see photo). Texas is again putting together great class.

Clean up continues and detours are still in place after a Tuesday train derailment in south Augusta on Mike Padgett Highway near McCombs Road at the Richmond County/Burke County line.
The train is no longer blocking the intersection, but traffic is being re-routed so repairs can be made. Authorities say the driver of an 18-wheeler lost control and struck the train, causing one of the derailed cars to hit a pick-up truck. The driver managed to jump out of the 18-wheeler before the collision.
Now, Mike Padgett Highway is still closed, and will remain so for at least 24 more hours. Businesses in that area say they're feeling the impact with less traffic coming through.
There is one main store in the immediate area, Yo Market, which has been a fixture in the south Augusta and McBean communities for almost forty years.
John Youmans has owned the storet for the past 11 years and says the small store and restaurant gets big business. "A lot from the truckers and from the plants around, also from Starbucks that's coming up. A lot of people from there are coming in. It gets to be pretty good right now," he says.
But, that traffic and business came to a halt quickly after Tuesday's train derailment.
The accident left more than 20 cars and tankers on their sides, but it also derailed Youmans' business. It killed it, pretty much," Youmans says.
Traffic was diverted from the area which kept hungry customers away and a lot of food uneaten. So, Youmans found a way to turn this bad situation into something good. "At the end of the shift, evening, we gave food to the people who worked on the train. We just gave the food away to them to keep it from being wasted," he says.
As workers sift through the mangled cars, bent metal, and detached wheels...more questions have emerged about what caused the 18-wheeler to hit the train.
Wilbert Maynor says the accident serves as a warning for everyone traveling this busy road. "You got to watch those trucks because they huge and they can't stop on a dime," he says.
Although traffic in the area is still detoured, Youmans is hoping the blocked road won't continue to block his business. "Now they are starting to let people through, if they ask to come down. Plus, McCombs Road is open as far as coming out," he says.
We will continue to follow this story and provide the latest information as it becomes available.

Logically I know that the O's have a slim shot to make the postseason, and I've known this for awhile now. Still, I get caught up in being a fan and rooting for each pitch. So when the O's go 3-9 on a road trip, continuing a second-half slide that seems to erase the fun of the first half, I get frustrated. At least my team will finish over .500. I should count that as a blessing, especially after so many years of non-contention. But that's hard to do after a loss like this one. This is (one of the many reasons) why I'm not a baseball player.
Anyway, enough of me waxing philosophical. Let's talk about the game. Let's talk about Zach Britton … eh. Let's not. He loaded the bases with no outs to start the inning, and before I blinked it was 4-0. Nate McLouth cut down the fifth run with a nice throw from left. That was nice. But immediately, the O's were at a severe disadvantage in the game. Even though Britton had a great second inning, he was done after three batters in the third. With runners on first and second and one down, Kevin Gausman came in to not only end the inning with two strikeouts, but also work through the fourth.
Gausman's stoppage was needed, because the offense was just getting going. The O's had several good at-bats, pushing up Zach McAllister's pitch count, but couldn't push any runs across. That changed in the fourth when Adam Jones hit a solo shot to make it 4-1, then changed in a hurry in the fifth when Manny Machado put one over the center-field fence for an Earl Weaver Special. 4-4.
It wouldn't last, though. Gausman gave up a single, a walk, and a double to bring home Jason Kipnis. 5-4 Indians. Buck Showalter ordered Asdrubal Cabrera walked to load the bases, hoping for a ground ball, but instead Gausman spiked a slider in front of home plate for a wild pitch. 6-4 Indians. These were the first to runs to score against him in his current big-league stint. And they ended up being the last to cross the plate for either side. In fact there were only two more hits the rest of the night: a single by McLouth and a single by Matt Carson, making his 2013 debut (and thus notching his first hit of the year).
The O's flashed a bit of leather in the game. In the fourth inning, Gausman snagged a Drew Stubbs bunt in mid-air and winged it to second base to double off Mike Aviles. That was nifty. The seventh featured a couple smooth plays. Chris Davis snared a hard grounder to throw out hot-hitting Kipnis, and Machado fielded a tough bunt to throw out Carlos Santana. Speaking of Davis, he did record a hat trick, but one was a questionable call, and he saw plenty of pitches in his plate appearances, so ... I'm going to count that as a win.
So, yeah, the O's now have quite a hill to climb and must rely on several other teams stumbling all at the same time. Personally, though, I said before this year that I'd be happy with a .500 season, and that's looking pretty likely, so I'm going to content myself with that.
The O's return home now to take on the Chicago White Sox. The Pale Hose are terrible this year (-82 run differential) but as tonight's broadcasters noted, they are starting three lefties in this series, and the O's don't hit lefties well: just 88 wRC+ for the season. I say this not to depress anybody, it's just a fact. I promise! *ducks thrown tomatoes* After the White Sox, it's AL East opponents (Yankees, Blue Jays, Red Sox, Rays, Blue Jays, Red Sox) the rest of the way.

Multi-format food and fuel retailer Giant Eagle, Inc. is helping consumers better manage their fuel costs with a new and additional GetGo fuel savings program that enables customers to instantly save 3 cents per gallon on the price of fuel purchased when they scan their Giant Eagle Advantage Card® and are not redeeming fuelperks! rewards. Starting today, every purchase of fuel offers GetGo customers the choice to save 3 cents per gallon or to use their available fuelperks! discounts.
In a press release, Giant Eagle Senior Director of Corporate Communications Rob Borella said, "Our new 3 cents per gallon of fuel discount promotion provides four million Giant Eagle Advantage Card holders with an easy, and instant way to frequently save on the cost of fuel."
He added the new promotion is in addition to fuelperks!, and that no changes are occurring to the fuelperks! program that provides a 10 cents per gallon discount on fuel at GetGo for every $50 spent on qualifying grocery and other purchases at Giant Eagle.
Borella also stated that today's time-pressed consumers are seeking simpler and more frequent ways to save. In line with these consumer trends and feedback, the foodperks! discount promotion will end with rewards earned through February 13, 2013 honored on their normal expiration schedule, up to May 31, 2013. Giant Eagle supermarket customers continue to benefit from competitive low everyday prices, great weekly specials, fuelperks!, seasonal Low Price Lock campaigns, and double coupons up to $.99.
In an effort to inform in advance those customers who were receiving the highest level of savings with foodperks!, the company began to issue letters to those customers along with added value offers in appreciation of their loyalty. These letters began to arrive late last week, and will continue to be delivered to customer mailboxes through this week.
In the letters, the company shared feedback it had received that not all customers liked the structure of the foodperks! promotion, as it requires additional shopping planning. As a result, only a small percentage of customers received significant savings. Borella added, "In fact, approximately 92 percent of Giant Eagle Advantage Card customers saved less than $40 each from foodperks! in the preceding 12 months."
The intent of the letters is to provide additional context for the decision, and the company offered its apology to any customers who may have been offended or misinterpreted the language used in the notification letters.

Outsource or merge with a neighboring jurisdiction?

If both side truly wanted to resolve issues, this matter would have been settled years ago.
Despite the money the FF union spent on the last election, $50,000+, and endorsing Mr. Silano and Mrs. Kiraly, not much has changed in resolving contract issues.

Given that the firefighters' union refuses to return to the negotiating table how could anything be accomplished?

Cheney, WA -- The wait is over for Eastern Washington as Head Coach Beau Baldwin named his starting quarterback today. He's going with the SMU-Transfer Kyle Padron.
The Junior had been battling with the Freshman Vernon Adams all fall camp for the starting job. In two fall scrimmages, Padron combined for over 300 yards and a touchdown.
It was a very tough decision to make.

Assistant Professor
Ph.D., Environmental Studies, University of California, Santa Cruz
Research Interests
My current research focuses on the effects of different management on carbon dynamics
and energy use in organic agriculture, as part of a multi-disciplinary multi-institutional
USDA funded research project. I am also very interested in the development of climate
change and carbon policy in the United States, as well as understanding the drivers
of corporate sustainability.
Courses Taught
Global Climate Change; Life on a Changing Planet; U.S. Environmental Policy
Prior to coming to San José State, I was at the University of California, Santa Cruz, working on my PhD that focused on fine root dynamics in the forests of the Sierra Nevada, as well as soil organic matter dynamics and sensitivity of soil organic matter to substrate and temperature. I also examined the disconnect between policy and science in the arena of carbon sequestration. Before coming to UCSC, I completed my undergraduate studies at Rutgers University, with a major in Natural Resource.

Top Banking Companies / Europe: Most Prestigious Banking Companies / Lazard Europe
M&A masters
Called the "Granddaddy of M&A," Lazard has advised on some of
the most significant mergers and acquisitions in Europe and the
Americas since the mid-19th century. The firm's modern
history can be traced to 2002, when dynamic dealmaker Bruce
Wasserstein took over the helm of the firm, becoming chief
executive. Wasserstein had a plan when he took leadership of
the company, to expand the firm's business so that the Lazard name
would be known throughout the world (Wasserstein passed away in
2009). The firm went public in 2005, and today, Lazard's
influence indeed reaches almost every corner of the globe. It
has 2,300 employees and offices in 39 cities across 24 countries on
five major continents, and manages more than US$81 billion in
assets for its clients.
At Lazard, there are only two main business units: financial
advisory and asset management. Its respected mergers and
acquisitions practice is divided into industry groups that include
consumer, financial institutions, financial sponsors, health care
and life sciences, industrial, power and energy, real estate and
technology, media and telecommunications. Each industry group
is managed by regional or global heads. Lazard also offers
financial restructuring, government advisory, alternative
investment fund raising and corporate finance services. (In a
financial environment where companies are crumbling and
bankruptcies are occurring on a daily basis, Lazard's well-known
restructuring division appears primed to be the firm's blue ribbon
business in 2009 and 2010). Lazard's asset management
business is mainly comprised of equity products, but it also offers
fixed income and alternative investments. Lazard's principal
executive offices are in New York, London and Paris.
Gold rush roots
How much does it cost to start a financial services firm?
For the Lazard brothers of New Orleans, Louisiana, the initial
investment was US$9,000, which funded a dry goods business in
1848. One year later, the Lazards relocated to the gold rush
town of San Francisco. The brothers, French immigrants,
expanded into banking in Paris in 1852. An office in London
and a new American headquarters in New York were opened in 1870 and
1880. For decades the three "Houses of Lazard" operated
mostly autonomously, developing their own specialties and client
Unification took place in 2000 when the three Houses merged
following criticism of Michel David-Weill, a distant relative of
the original Lazards, who took over the company in 1977.
After the merger David-Weill became manager of the firm's executive
committee, naming William Loomis as CEO. Loomis resigned in
2001 (reportedly because of wrangling between partners in London
and Paris, all of whom were accustomed to having their way).
Bruce Wasserstein, founder of Wasserstein Perella, stepped in to
lead the firm, and embarked on an ambitious plan to expand the
firm's international business and recruit top investment bankers
from around the world.

Haleyville librarian Carla Waldrep portrayed Aunt Jenny Brooks, a midwife and medicine woman who lived in the Bankhead National Forest in the mid to late 19th century.
Aunt Jenny is the subject of numerous legends, some of which she likely spun herself. So many stories have been told about her that later generations have begun to believe she was not a real person.
Waldrep thought so too until she began researching the life of Louisa Elisabeth Jane Bates Brooks. She learned that the truth about Aunt Jenny was far more interesting than anything that could be made up.
Waldrep warned the children at the beginning of her presentation that some of the things she had to tell them about Aunt Jenny were not pleasant and might make them question whether she was a nice person.
"I assure you that she was. She actually was a remarkable, strong-willed, tough woman who loved her family," Waldrep said.
At her death in 1924 at age 98, Aunt Jenny had outlived all but one of her children.
Her husband, Willis Brooks, and her oldest son were killed by a Confederate homeguard as punishment for burying Union soldiers that were killed in a battle near their home.
Aunt Jenny was left alone to raise her eight other children.
She also swore that every man responsible for killing her husband and son would pay for their lives. Legend has it that each one did eventually die at the hands of a Brooks boy or Aunty Jenny herself.
"It was said that if Aunt Jenny liked you and you were her friend, she would go to the ends of the earth for you. But if you harmed her family, it would not be wise to turn your back on her," Waldrep said.
Waldrep added that all of Aunt Jenny's sons had violent deaths. She also lost daughters and grandchildren at early ages.
"So yes, Aunt Jenny became very protective of what she had left," Waldrep said.
Union soldiers once made the mistake of trying to confiscate the family's horses. Aunt Jenny offered them a hot meal instead.
The group never left the property; she laced their food with poison.
In her 80s, Aunt Jenny donated two and a half acres for the old Macedonia Baptist Church.
She gave her life to Christ and was carried in her rocking chair to be baptized.
The next summer reading program at the Jasper Public Library is Thursday, June 27, at 10 a.m.

The bells, my God, the bells!
Original post made by Joe on Jan 18, 2008
Bells can be beautiful when they're in tune. What is it about these recordings and/or this speaker system that seems to play havoc with what might otherwise be charming piece of choral music?
Comments (11)
on Jan 18, 2008 at 5:32 pm
Anyone who thinks those things are in tune has bats in his belfry.
on Jan 20, 2008 at 3:21 pm
Yes, bells can be beautiful, but even if this unholy contraption at the church were in tune, the fact that its sound is not derived from bells -- it's merely designed to imitate bells -- makes that statement irrelevant. It's a pity that the church folks could think that something of real beauty -- the uplifting, resonant song of bells -- could be replaced with electronically produced noise. And worse, painfully out-of-tune noise.
on Jan 27, 2008 at 7:32 pm
I agree - the bells are out of tune, synthetic, and a (comparatively) recent addition to the neighborhood a bunch of years ago. No historical or fond memories of these bells.
The neighborhood would be better off without the "bells."
on Jan 28, 2008 at 5:08 pm
All of you complainers are just like the morons who buy a house near an airport then complain about the airplane noise. Get over it. The church was there long before you. So shut up or move!
on Jan 28, 2008 at 5:12 pm
Amused is right. What could be sooo horrible about chruch bells (simulated or otherwise)? It is not like rap music is blaring! Quit whining people and thank God you live in a place where you don't hear gunshots and screaming...but instead...church bells.
on Jan 28, 2008 at 5:40 pm
I'm a big-time bell lover. Problem is, these are not bells. If the church limited the sounding of this electronic noise-maker to an on-the-hour announcement of the time of day, I'd grin and bear it. But instead we're assaulted with a series of out-of-tune tunes at least twice a day. Those of us not afflicted with a tin ear cringe. Stop the noise.
on Jan 28, 2008 at 6:04 pm
So ... embarrassingly out-of-tune, unrecognizable selections booming out several times a day, dimly echoing the beautiful tones of actual church bells is a good thing?
How far we have come from the days when bells were bronze, tones were round and full and lovely to contemplate, parishioners used ropes to ring them, and it all was part of the common wealth.
Lacking these amenities, must we also do without fidelity -- as in high fidelity? Are our senses not to be respected? Do we not deserve at least a new set of speakers and a better recording?
on Jan 28, 2008 at 6:31 pm
So How about a break...then donate the money to the church so it can be improved just for you. Whiners.
on Jan 28, 2008 at 9:14 pm
So ... how about ... blessed silence.
on Jan 29, 2008 at 12:06 pm
Blessed silence is another alternative I'd lend my support to. Why continue to do something if you continue to do it badly?

Two Crimson Tide players who each suffered knee injuries during Saturday's game against Ole Miss are out for the season.
Coach Nick Saban announced Monday that Alabama's running back Dee Hart and wide receiver DeAndrew White will be unable to play for the remainder of the year due to their injuries.
"The MRI indicated that both Dee and DeAndrew sustained knee injuries that will require surgery and they will be out for the year," Saban said in a statement.
The Alabama Crimson Tide beat the Ole Miss Rebels 33-14. The Tide is off this Saturday and will face Missouri for their next game on Saturday, Oct. 13.
