When people go away for shabbos they often bring along a gift to their hosts. What is a good Kosher wine - not too dry - that you can give for less than $20?

At the risk of being boring, the Bartenura Moscato ("blue bottle") is usually well-received. Mevushal. Easy to find at most kosher wine places these days.
For those who prefer something Israeli, there's the Carmel analogue (yes mevushal) of the "blue bottle", and the Gamla (non-mevushal).
If you like the idea of a decent wine (cabernet, etc.) but find them a touch too dry, try Herzog's Jeunesse (a semi-dry, usually too sweet for real dry wine drinkers). $10-12 a bottle.
I enjoy white Zinfandel. It comes in a nice pink shade, and it's got just enough sweetness to pull out of being truly dry.
Baron Herzog makes it in California, and Carmel makes it in Israel. It looks like they can be found for under $10 and under $15, respectively.

Jackson police say a traffic stop during a "city-wide sweep" led to the arrest of two men on drug charges Thursday.
Police say 28-year-old Aaron Barnes was riding a motor scooter and committed a traffic violation in the 3900 block of Mesilla Drive.
Officers obtained a search warrant for Barnes' nearby residence where they reportedly found a pound of marijuana, weighing scales, a stolen handgun and $776. The marijuana has a street value of $800, according to police.
The Glock .40 caliber had been reported stolen in Smith County.
A second man, 26-yaer-old Quinterius Barnes, was also arrested. Both men were charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and possession of a stolen handgun.

Weather Thesaurus Entry: Sunrise
WEATHER & EARTHLY PHENOMENA are important elements in any setting, providing sensory texture and contributing to the mood the writer wishes to create in a scene. With a deft touch, weather can enhance the character's emotional response to a specific location, it can add conflict, and it can also (lightly) foreshadow coming events.
However, caution must accompany this entry: the weather should not be used as a window into a character's soul. The weather can add invisible pressure for the character, it can layer the SCENE with symbolism, it can carefully hint at the internal landscape, but it must never OVERTLY TELL emotion. Such a heavy-handed approach results in weather cliches and melodrama (a storm raging above a bloody battle, a broken-hearted girl crying in the rain).
Sight: The sky lightens in streaks of pink and orange and clouds are lit from the bottom in an fiery glow. Sunrise intensifies with each minutes, growing brighter and sharper, and visibility improves as night is cast off. Reflective surfaces (lakes, pools, ponds, puddles) take on the color of the sky, becoming a mirror of light, and shadows dissolve. Objects in the landscape between an observer and the sunrise location (tree outlines, hills/mountains) can appear momentarily stark black in comparison as the sun first rises. Dew, shiny leaves, polished metal, windows--anything moistened by humidity or reflective will collect the brightness and color of sunrise. Pinks and purples give way to orange which in turn lightens into gold. Skin tones brighten and the different hues in hair are highlighted when someone faces the sun.
Smell: As the sun warms the morning, earthy odors will emerge--soil, grass, greenery. Flower petals open, releasing their scent.
Taste: No specific tastes are associated with sunrise, unless one is enjoying a coffee or breakfast in accompaniment.
Touch: When the sun first touches skin, warmth seeps into pores causing hair follicles to respond and lift. The feel of sun on skin is pleasing and the brightness as it rises will force one's eyes into a squint or to close, allowing other senses (warmth, sounds) to relay the experience instead.
Sound: As the sun rises, birds grow active and bird calls begin to filter into the experience. In an urban area, there would be an increase in traffic sounds (squeaky car breaks, revving motors, horns) as early rises head to work.
Mood: Sunrise is often used as a transition in books, allowing the story to be anchored in the beginning of a fresh day or signify a new stage about to unfold. There is beauty in a sunrise which allows for reflection and thought on the big picture and also the internal landscape. Dawn is a wash of light across the setting, causing darkness to recede, and in characters, can be a moment where their choices and mistakes can be forgotten and forgiven and they are able to forge ahead, renewed. Sunrise is a powerful feature in setting, so always use it with intent, and never overuse it. Sometimes the meaning of dawn is inverted, and is the transition point marking something terrible to come.
Symbolism: New Beginnings; entering a new stage or point in one's journey; beauty; God; Life; Renewal; Hope; Spirit; Peace
Possible Cliches: Comparing the sunrise to one's love for another; comparing one's beauty to the sunrise; dawn signalling/or being the backdrop for the start of an epic battle
OTHER: This one's pretty simple--rises in the east. Time that this event occurs is dependent on the location and date/season.
Don't be afraid to use the weather to add contrast. Unusual pairings, especially when drawing attention to the Character's emotions, is a powerful trigger for tension. Consider how the bleak mood of a character is even more noticeable as morning sunlight dances across the crystals of fresh snow on the walk to work. Or how the feeling of betrayal is so much more poignant on a hot summer day. Likewise, success or joy can be hampered by a cutting wind or drizzling sleet, foreshadowing conflict to come.

Christina, that's a really good point as a possible scent because bakeries are the first ones up and moving, and so the scent of yeast would definitely be in the air in urban locations around grocery stores, doughnut shops and bakeries. And boy, do I love that smell...irresistible. :)

The Haverhill Gazette
---- — Northern Essex Community College, along with the Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce and the Haverhill Horizons Hardware Challenge, will host the "Open Innovation Conference 2013" on March 20 from 6 to 9:30 p.m. at Northern Essex Community College's Technology Center, 100 Elliott St.
Business, community, and educational leaders are invited to attend the conference, which will initiate the development of an open innovation cluster in the Merrimack Valley, according to a press release on the event.
"We want to enhance our local and regional competitiveness so that we can increase business and economic development in Haverhill and the Merrimack Valley," Mayor James Fiorentini said.
Sven Amirian, president of the Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce, explained the goals of the conference.
"The region needs a critical mass of entrepreneurs and talented workers, a strong education network, collaborative business practices and tools, as well as access to capital resources and local and global markets," Amirian said, adding that his business group hopes to play a major role in matchmaking for partnerships.
George Moriarty of Haverhill, the community college's new executive director for workforce development and corporate relations, said "open innovation can be a catalyst for economic growth."
"The Merrimack Valley has tremendous potential for growth and development," Moriarty said. "Our core businesses produce the goods and services demanded by today's global marketplace. Our educational infrastructure endows its graduates with 21st century skills and knowledge. Entrepreneurs across the region are challenging long-held assumptions about product development and intellectual property being produced solely within the organization. Open innovation, or co-creating, is a concept that unifies these exciting elements into a coherent approach to sustainable economic development."

I was thinking about this after my uncle louis told this joke. He was talking about how all of the young people today have tattoos and how silly they were going to look when they were sixty five years old and their skin started sagging. The actual joke is a bit crude, but easy to guess. It got me to thinking about how big tattoos are and that soon you might be able to make money removing them. I started looking into it. The obvious thing would be to find cosmetic laser machines for sale at a reasonable price and then figure out how to safely operate them. You would want to sort out any legal or liability issues. For example you would not want to be one of those doctors who makes millions of dollars doing fancy surgeries and then loses it all in court because he made one little mistake.
I am guessing that you can mess this stuff up in some way, after all you are using a laser on some person's skin. In fact you do not need to do anything wrong to get held liable for it or at least end up with the bill for it. Say you remove a tattoo from some person who spends ten hours a day out in the sun. Then one day they get skin cancer. Obviously you would say it was from the sun and a jury would likely agree with you. Still he could sue you and keep you in court for God knows how long. It would not really matter if you were completely guilty, because you would still end up spending a lot of time and a lot of money on it. It is not on accident that those lawyers spend all that money going to law school.Continue To Persist Browsing

Stripped bolt hole!

Stripped bolt hole!
Boy, if it's not one thing, it's another. It's tough working on 3 tractors at one time...hard to keep track of all the problems!!
So my problem that arose today occurred when I was installing the hydraulic line/manifold back on the SA. The middle bolt at the TC end seems to be stripped out. Just my luck...I had THREE TC units, and rebuilt (at Boss' VA Fest) the one that had a problem!!!
My question is: since I don't have the expertise and equipment to do a helicoil, can I just drill and tap this to the next larger size? There SEEMS to be plenty of "meat" on the block, but don't know if this would be a problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Just realized I need to check the manifold to see if there was enough room for a larger hole...will do that tomorrow.
I'll post some general progress photos when I'm not so tired, but it IS going together rather well...new tires on all round, seat, fenders, hydraulics (mostly!), distributor, exhaust manifold, etc, are all back on. Just keep bolting things back on until the shelves are empty!!
Still looking for a better grill, though...

Re: Stripped bolt hole!
Dale, the only difference between placing the helicoil and tapping to the next size bolt is the insertion of the helicoil itself. Unless you already have the drill and tap for the next size bolt, you probably won't spend that much extra to get a helicoil kit and keep the bolt the correct size. I'm not sure what size you need, but you may want to ask at the body shop where you are doing the tractors and see if they have that size. Otherwise, most auto supply, or lots of places online.
"We don't need to think more,
we need to think differently."
-Albert Einstein
Re: Stripped bolt hole!
NO, don't do that. It just makes a mess for the next guy. Remember, the next guy may be you. The only short cut I would consider is to check the depth of the bolt hole, see if a longer bolt would catch some remaining threads at the bottom of the hole. You can check the depth and remaining threads by screwing the bolt in without the manifold in place. See how far it goes in and if it seems to reach some good threads. Then find a bolt that will go to nearly the same depth with the manifold in place. Since it is the middle bolt, you can probably get away with torquing it to the low end of the normal range.
If this won't work and you can't helicoil it, get somebody to helicoil it for you.
Re: Stripped bolt hole!
Yeah, I knew both procedures involved drilling out larger holes, but I think I DO have the larger tap, and aren't the helicoil kits pretty pricey? Of course, when I look at the manifold end, there just may not be enough room for a larger hole. Won't know til tomorrow when I look.
What do suppose the odds are that of the three TC units I COULD have rebuilt, that this is the ONLY one with a problem??!!!
Dale F
PS Another question: do the smaller/forward ends of the leather boots on the TC pistons get wired around the piston shaft or just left open? I already have the larger ends around the opening wired on.
Dale Finch
Re: Stripped bolt hole!
I am with Jim on this one, don't screw it up with a larger bolt!!!!!! you may be able to do as Jim said, you could use a stud if there are good threads in the bottom of the hole.

Re: Stripped bolt hole!
Not necessarily if you know the size of the bolt you can get kit from your local automotive parts store. Your local Hardware store may carry them also. The kit should have the correct drill,tap and helicoil installation tool for the helicoil. just dont drill too deep into the casting.

Re: Stripped bolt hole!
The Helicoil patent expired long ago and others make the inserts and tools in addition to the Helicoil, interchangeable in every way.
Luck favors those who are prepared
Re: Stripped bolt hole!
The Helicoil kits get fairly expensive in the larger ones, but the smaller ones such as 5/16, which if I remember correctly is what holds the manifold to the TC block are in the area of $25 or so. You need a kit with the drill bit, tap, coils, and insert tool. The bit is not a standard size and can be purchased separately, but may have to be ordered if it does not come with the kit. Most auto parts stores, even Autozone, stock a version of them. Amazon is also a good place to look.

Re: Stripped bolt hole!
Helicoil it. Really it isn't all that hard. If I can do it, you certainly can. Only thing you will have to do is ensure that the other orifices are protected from debris. Make a temporary cover plate say out of 1/8" masonite etc., similar to what I did when I busted a bolt off in the TC Manifold on Ellie:
Helicoils are rather easy, inexpensive and the instructions are pretty clear. I think (you need to confirm that)... that it might be 3/8"-16 and if so then the helicoils will be under $20.00 for a kit including bit/STI Tap and 10 helicoils. Just check the size of the bolt with one of the good ones to be safe.

Re: Stripped bolt hole!
For the quick solution, cover the other openings with duct tape. Those bolts are 3/8 coarse thread.
The stud suggestion is a good idea.
Re: Stripped bolt hole!
After considering things, I agreed last night with your comments about helicoiling it. I definitely like doing things right! So I might be lucky and have one coming to me today through the MAC tool guy who is also a pilot and friend.
Meanwhile, I have a shelf of other parts I can put on. The real challenge is figuring out which piece to put on next so that I do not have to take it back off to put a different part on first!!

PS Does the leather boot get safety wired at both ends or just the large one at the base?

I had already tried this and THOUGHT it would work. I saw that the old bolt did not appear to go to the bottom of the hole, so I carefully ran a tap down, then tried it and it seemed to be OK. However, when I was tightening it down for good, it must have had only a very slight bit of thread, and let go. Oh well, it WILL be fixed correctly.

Re: Stripped bolt hole!
Without seeing it myself, as I'm not sure how much "stress" is placed on that particular bolt or area, but I agree with what Jim said:
I'm wondering if a repair similar to how Carl has repaired the stripped inlets to carbs might suffice?
I've been successful using that technique on a stripped thread for a head bolt on an engine, and I've used JB Weld to make other repairs that required drilling and tapping a hole in the JB Weld repair, and it too held. There should be enough thread left that once the JB Weld cures, it should have enough bit left that the newly created threads would hold up? One thing to remember when using JB Weld is that the area has to be as CLEAN as possible in order for it to adhere, and I would wait as long as possible for it to cure to ensure it holds.
Might not work, but might be worth a shot?
Mike Duncan
Re: Stripped bolt hole!
Another happy ending!! Yes, today was a pretty good day, and some good progress was achieved!!
I did the HeliCoil repair to my Touch Control Manifold, and have attached a link to some photos (I have attached descriptions of each photo).
As a few of you said, it really was not difficult. I must say that it was easier after having watched this video:
Thanks for the encouragement!

LEHIGH ACRES: Lee County deputies seized more than $530,000 in marijuana during a grow house bust Tuesday.
Deputies went to 3101 7th Street W in Lehigh after getting an anonymous tip out of the Miami area that the home was the site of a large-scale marijuana grow house operation.
When investigators arrived on scene, they spoke with the sole occupant of the home, identified as 48-year-old Felicia Garcia Gonzalez.
Detectives said they could immediately smell marijuana on Gonzalez.
After searching the home, deputies found two bedrooms each containing 14 full grown marijuana plants.
A third room contained 11 full grown plants.
Investigators then found 71 small marijuana plants inside a bathroom and 23 more plants of different sizes in the garage.
In all, deputies say 133 plants were recovered.
Deputies say the plants had a street value estimated at more than $530,000. Various drug paraphernalia was also found during the operation.
Gonzalez was arrested and taken to the Lee County Jail.
She has been charged with one felony count each of Marijuana Cultivation, Possession of Marijuana and Possession of Drug Equipment.

Greensburg — Despite the title, Thin Lizzy is not coming to Greensburg.
However, boys soccer does return to Greensburg at the U-14 level with a spectacular Friday Night Under the Lights game this Friday, Sept. 6. For the past few years, Decatur County Youth Soccer Club (DCYSC) has not been able to field a boys U-14 soccer team. This year, the decision was made to combine the U-12 and U-14 boys to have one team. This effort was made partially to help the defending Regional Champion Greensburg Pirates keep their program going in the future. To celebrate this renewed team, DCYSC in coordination with the Eastern Indiana Soccer Association (EISA) is proud to present the fourth Annual Friday Night Under the Lights Soccer Event.
This year there will be not one, but two games at the Washington Field Complex. The preliminary game will feature the ladies in a hotly contested U-10 matchup between DC1, coached by Ryan Morton and sponsored by Ag Production, and DC2 coached by former Greensburg High School and Franklin College soccer star Allison Smith and sponsored by KB Specialty Food.
Although this contest will feature two local teams, that aspect will not detract from the intensity of the game as both teams look to improve on their seeding position in the season ending tourney with a win that night. This game will start the night's action at 5:30 p.m. on the smaller field sitting at right angles to the U-12 and U-14 field.
The main attraction will start at 7 p.m. This game will take place on the "big" field where the old high school football games took place in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. The game brings in one of the EISA teams from Batesville, the B3 bunch coached by Rob Wagner and sponsored by Forethought Financial Group. They will face the DC1, coached by Patty Hensley and sponsored by Kova Fertilizer. The local team has a majority of their players who would normally play in U-12, but their play has improved each week.

I tried my first Home Run Inn frozen pizza tonight and thought it was the best frozen pizza I have ever had. Great crust and the sauce has an excellent flavor. Thanks for making this great product available in the south!"

Slightly more patients with terminal cancer are getting hospice care during the end of their lives, but they are still entering hospice care too late — within days of death — finds a new national analysis of Medicare patients conducted by Dartmouth researchers. And many are still dying in hospitals, often hooked to ventilators in an intensive care unit, despite studies showing that most cancer patients prefer to die at home.
The percentage of end-stage cancer patients who died in the hospital decreased from 29 percent on average to 25 percent from 2003 to 2010, but there are huge variations among hospitals: In Massachusetts in 2010, about 13 percent of terminally ill cancer patients treated at North Shore Medical Center in Salem died there compared with 41 percent of those treated at MetroWest Medical Center in Framingham, according to the analysis released Wednesday from the Dartmouth Atlas Project.

Bonneville Power Administration
|BPA Home EE Home Innovation Overview
Energy Efficiency Innovation Overview
Energy Efficiency Innovation
Advances in technology and policy are expected to provide a wide array of energy efficient options, such as smart appliances, programmable Web-based thermostats, ability to monitor energy use through the internet and the use of waste heat from distributed generation.
By creating demonstration projects and test beds related to smart grid, emerging technologies and demand response, BPA's Office of Technology Innovation and BPA Energy Efficiency can help meet new conservation and carbon reduction goals, provide new "green" jobs in the region and promote energy independence while investing in the economic future of the entire Northwest region.
Smart Grid
Smart Grid is a term for digital technologies used in the distribution and transmission of power. In addition to improved efficiency, safety and reliability, a smart grid can provide non-construction alternatives to expanding the transmission infrastructure. Think of the smart grid as the internet brought to the electric system.
BPA is developing the Pacific Northwest Smart Grid Demonstration Project. This project will test an electricity network using autonomous controls, advanced sensors and distributed computers. The project will allow homes and businesses to act as energy clients and suppliers through a variety of intelligent tools. It is expected to enable information sharing across operational boundaries, such as utilities, transmission and generation wholesalers or between neighboring utilities. BPA plans to have the Pacific Northwest Smart Grid Demonstration Project in place by 2015.
Want to learn more about the Smart Grid Demonstration Project? Read more about Smart Grid.
Energy Efficiency Emerging Technologies
Energy efficiency emerging technologies are technological solutions that are not in common use, but hold promise in increasing the efficient use, production or distribution of energy. For example, ductless heat pumps, solid state plasma lighting and LED street lights are all energy efficiency emerging technologies currently being investigated.
BPA is engaged in an effort to identify, assess and develop emerging energy efficiency technologies. This effort will focus on near-to-market and commercially available technologies that can be developed and implemented within the next one to five years. Read more about BPA's Energy Efficiency Emerging Technologies initiatives.
Demand Response
Demand response uses technology and incentives to change electricity consumption by end-use customers. This can result in reductions of energy generation at times of peak use and at times when wholesale market prices spike. While demand response is a critical component of smart grid, as a stand alone program it also offers benefits to both utilities and consumers in the form of increased electric system reliability and reduced price volatility.
Demand response uses a wide range of technologies that offer a variety of options for addressing peak capacity and transmission constraints across the electrical system. Voluntary demand response offers consumers incentives to voluntarily reduce their electric loads at system peaks. In a past demonstration, the region saved approximately $2 million through voluntary demand reduction during the 2001-2002 West Coast power crisis.

I met Anjali Gopalan in 1995, when I was researching a new disease whose name was spoken only in whispers in India. At the time, doctors and nurses in some Delhi hospitals would not touch people infected with HIV. Gopalan not only touched them; she took them into her home and danced with them. She escorted me to the hidden places where gays and lesbians met: in Nehru Park on Sunday evenings and at a party where men arrived garbed as Bollywood heroines from the 1950s and '60s. It was a threatened world, and Gopalan had returned home from Brooklyn to protect it.
Through her work at the Naz Foundation, Gopalan, 54, has done more than anyone else to advance the rights of gays and the transgendered in India, successfully petitioning the courts to get rid of a British-era law against sodomy. But her work isn't just in courtrooms. She also runs a home for HIV-positive orphans.
Gopalan has brought about a revolution in the status of sexual minorities in India — and has done so joyously, dancing.

A poster on the Hockey's Future message boards put up this screen cap of an online order screen for Chicago Blackhawks and Detroit Red Wings Winter Classic player t-shirts. I'm still trying to figure out what website that could be from.
The Red Wings logo matches what MLive.com's Ansar Khan reported yesterday with an olde English 'D' ( I like them). Chicago's looks similar to the famous barber pole uniforms the team began wearing in the mid-1930's.
We'll find out in a few hours as the actual jerseys will be unveiled during tonight's Chicago/Detroit game beginning at 8:30 p.m. est.
In other news, due to improper markings on the ice sheet at TD BankNorth Gardens, the Thrashers and Bruins will switch sides at the first stoppage of play after the ten minute mark of the third period.
"The change in format is occurring due to incorrect markings on the West End (visitors bench side) of the TD Banknorth Garden ice. In the West End, the two face-off dots are 24 feet from the goal line – four feet longer than NHL specifications. The corresponding face-off circles are also four feet further away from the goal line."
UPDATE: The jerseys which you'll see on January 1, 2009:

The laptop is nice with good configuration. But the drivers are very hard to get. On the HP website there are so many drivers that its very difficult to figure out which ones to install. Flipkart should provide a Driver CD with all the laptops. Delivery was usual good from Flipkart.
If you know what you are looking for in a laptop, you will never regret this deal.Dude it's a HP notebook for just around 24K.Not a high end one for extreme gaming or hard core development, but yes it will solve all your basic needs in entertainment, gaming and even development.And one RAM slot is free so you can always go ahead and upgrade it.Go for this deal...Its once in a lifetime offer...And Yes, no doubt FK Rocks in delivery and services..
this would be a best buy notebook for low budget customers!
best in terms of processor
go for it if you are not bothered about the integrated camera
its a very nice product in cheap price. i have checked all the laptops in all the trusted sites and this is the only product with 2gb ram and 500gb hard disk. its speed is awesome with superb graphics. if u are opting to buy a laptop in 20's range i would advise you to buy this one.
I got this laptop 13days back, & used it in every possible manner..!!
Every thing in this laptop is fine but the up & down arrow key is very small as compare to other keys.. in beginning i felt little uncomfortable with these two keys... but later got used to it..
Any all other things in this laptop works great...
I'll suggest to go for it.. Still i cant believe i got this configuration at just around 25k..
This laptop is a value for money and nice performance except for a dedicated graphics card but still able to play games such as batman AS, burnout paradise, cs. If you want to buy an average money saving laptop this is the best. GO for it. A request to make this price little lower. Thank you (View complete review)
If you are not a hardcore gamer, this laptop is definitely worth every buck that you pay for it.
Pros: 2gb ddr3, 500gb and core i3 under 25k.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) – There are rushing yards, passing yards, total yards and the final score. Then there are the numbers that really matter in college football:
Attendance numbers.
Nobody will travel to Papa John's Cardinal Stadium Saturday thinking Missouri State is a threat to the University of Louisville. What I wonder is how many will watch a game that will be over before Teddy Bridgewater adjusts his shoulder pads?
With about 3,000 of its 55,000 seats unsold, can U of L outdraw the University of Kentucky this weekend?
Empty seats are expected for the Wildcats' home opener against Kent State. Empty seats are what helped drive Bill Curry from the job. Empty seats will be an issue for Joker Phillips, as if he doesn't have enough things to furrow his brow.
According to the latest report from UK, football, season tickets sales were down nearly 21 percent from last season and 32.5 percent from 2009. UK athletic director Mitch Barnhart said Thursday that the school had sold around 40,000 season tickets.
The forecast for student turnout is partly cloudy with a 70 percent chance of apathy. The official UK athletic web site reported that although student season tickets are $35, there is a greater percentage decline in sales to students than the general public.
What's a reasonable turnout for a home opener against a Mid-American Conference opponent?
The Wildcats attracted 58,022 for their home opener against Central Michigan last season. That was the smallest season-opener crowd since UK drew 57,136 for Texas State (who?) in 2006.
The last season opening crowd of less than 57,000 came in 1993 when the Wildcats dusted Kent State, 35-0.
When was the last UK home opener with fewer than 50,000?
Try 1988 against Central Michigan. Only 41,736 attended.
Considering that UK has had one crowd of less than 56,882 the last five seasons, anything less than that number is certain to inspire howls and analysis of what's going on in Lexington.
One word of perspective: Attendance is an issue across college football. Even in the allegedly insatiable Southeastern Conference.
The Palm Beach Post reported that attendance at Florida's home opener declined for the third consecutive season. There were more than 4,000 empty seats for the Gators' home opener against Bowling Green.
"I'm not overly concerned about it," Florida coach Will Muschamp told Jason Lieser. "We need to win football games and that's what we're going to do."
Excitement has never been greater at Vanderbilt, but the Commodores failed to sell out their 40,550-seat stadium for their home opener with South Carolina.
Florida State expects to contend for a national title, right? It's football country 365 days a year, right? According to NCAA statistics, nearly 15 percent of the seats were unfilled for the Seminoles' home opener against Murray State.
Here are five other schools that failed to sell out their home openers (the percentage of empty seats, according to the NCAA, in parentheses):
Missouri (9 percent); Brigham Young (11 percent); Mississippi (16.5 percent); Washington (nearly 26 percent) and Purdue (more than 35 percent).
Surprised? Me, too.
College football has never been more popular. But the college football consumer has never been more discerning.
Last Saturday a fan could enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner from the couch and watch college football without interruption for more than 15 hours, starting with the 9 a.m. kickoff of the Notre Dame-Navy game in Dublin. The TV schedule will remain stuffed with delicious viewing choices for at least a dozen hours every Saturday all season.
Air-conditioning, HD viewing, replays and tasty groceries within arm's distance vs. humidity, traffic, concession-stand lines and craning your neck to see around the guy who keeps standing up?
The debate isn't as one-sided as it used to be. Even the NFL knows that.
But bills must be paid. The rest of the country needs to be impressed.
For Louisville, attendance for the Missouri State game will be another item in the beauty pageant of showing everybody (like the Big 12) that football really matters here.
For Kentucky, attendance for the Kent State game will be studied as a measurement of how much love the persistently supportive UK fan base still has for Joker Phillips.
Not all the important numbers this weekend will be on the scoreboard.

On Wednesday, Gov. Nathan Deal signed into law House Bill 60, legislation that protects law-abiding, licensed Georgia citizens' Second Amendment rights.
"For decades now I have staunchly defended our Second Amendment rights as both a legislator and as governor," said Deal. "This legislation will protect the constitutional rights of Georgians who have gone through a background check to legally obtain a Georgia Weapons Carry License. Roughly 500,000 Georgia citizens have a permit of this kind, which is approximately 5 percent of our population. License holders have passed background checks and are in good standing with the law. This law gives added protections to those who have played by the rules – and who can protect themselves and others from those who don't play by the rules. Our nation's founders put the right to bear arms on par with freedom of speech and freedom of religion. Georgians cherish their Second Amendment rights, and this law embodies those values."
Jann Oldham, who flies into and out of Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport several times a year, doesn't like the idea that someone other than a police officer could be carrying a gun as she walks through the airport.
"I just don't think that's a good idea at all," Oldham said.
The bill will let licensed owners carry guns into any part of Georgia municipal airports that are not behind security checkpoints.
Oldham supports the Second Amendment, just not in the airport.
"In an environment like this, we already have security. What's the point?" Oldham asked.
Kellie Seibel feared the legislation could open the doors to more gun violence like last year's shooting at Los Angeles International Airport that left a TSA officer dead and several people wounded.
"This would be a perfect opportunity for someone to who wants to take revenge out on a group of people or any type of terrorist activity," Seibel said.
The legislation also permits school districts to authorize an administrator to carry a gun and it will let houses of worship and bars to decide whether to allow guns through their doors.
Jerry Henry, executive director of GeorgiaCarry.org, said the law will strengthen Second Amendment rights and let innocent civilians protect themselves before police have a chance to react.
"It will allow them to defend against bad guys with guns," Henry said. "It will allow me to take control of the situation."
When asked if the legislation will make Georgians safer, Henry answered, "It's not going to make it any less safe."
Atlanta already allows guns into Hartsfield-Jackson. The new legislation codifies that ability into state law and extends the right to airports around Georgia.
The law will go into effect on July 1.

BUCKTOWN Ś Being the best player on one of the four best teams in all of Pennsylvania wasnÆt enough.
Emily Morgan still had a senior season to play, and she was determined to be even better.
How much more could she give after being the motor in the center of midfield for an Owen J. Roberts team that made an emotionally-charged run to the PIAA semifinals, rallying around one another in the wake of teammate Kelsey KramerÆs untimely death?
The æDÆ in MorganÆs DNA stands for defense, her ability to tackle, dispossess an opposing player, and positional intelligence second to no one in the area for quite some time. So in her final scholastic season Morgan decided she needed to go on the attack.
ōI said to my mom at the start of the year, æI want to score goals.Æ Last year I had around seven goals and, not that a midfielder is supposed to be the leading goalscorer or be the biggest presence in attacking, but at the same time you (need to be influential).
ōMy main focus was working on my attacking game. I feel like I can always do better, but I did better than last year.ö
Morgan brought her usual defensive excellence as a senior and contributed 11 goals and eight assists Ś reaching double-digit goals like she hoped Ś to a Wildcat team that finished 17-4-2 this season.
ōThat was a luxury Ś every time we stepped on the field we knew we had the best player on the field,ö OJR coach Joe Margusity said. ōEverything flowed through her during the game.ö
The abundant team success of her junior season couldnÆt be matched in her senior season, but Morgan brought what she does best and more to solidify her place as one of the finest players to come through the highly-successful Owen J. Roberts program.
MorganÆs spot as one of the areaÆs best is now solidified on the short list of players to be named The Mercury All-Area Girls Soccer Player of the Year twice. She joins past OJR standouts Laura Kane (1998, 2000) and Jen Michewicz (1999, 2001) as a rare two-time recipient.
ōSheÆs special,ö Margusity said. ōHer competitiveness, her technical skill is excellent, her ability to beat players 1v1 (are her greatest strengths). SheÆs probably the best player IÆve had in 10 years to handle four sides of pressure.ö
Morgan has few equals over the last decade in the area in her ability to win so many of the countless one-on-one battles that litter a single soccer game. Flash isnÆt her game, but using her body positioning to get around or take the ball from an opponent, playing the smart pass, or being dominant in the air on headers is.
There truly was four sides of pressure for the central midfielder considering she was just one of three senior starters on this yearÆs OJR team, which graduated a handful of starters last year. She was thrust into a leadership role beyond her leadership-by-example that was so evident as a junior.
ōI thought she handled the pressure of expectations well on her own terms,ö Margusity said. ōShe knew she was the face of the franchise so to speak, and consistently in practice she was one of the hardest workers. She set the table by example and she expected everyone else to work that way.ö
MorganÆs work ethic carried her to success in her three years at Owen J. Roberts after she began her high school career at Episcopal Academy as a freshman. Margusity joked that he wished he could æredshirtÆ Morgan because of her first year at EA, but Georgetown University Ś where she has verbally committed Ś will win out upon her graduation at the end of the school year.
Fun and happy-go-lucky off the field, MorganÆs competitive drive turns her into a different person on the field. She doesnÆt expect perfection, but she does expect her drive and determination to be matched.
ōOn the field IÆm very ædo it this way or donÆt do it at all.Æ If youÆre not going to put in the effort then get off the field,ö she said. ōIf IÆm putting in my all and the person next to me is too and you donÆt want it as badly, then let someone who wants it as badly on the field. I know that sounds harsh, but I want everybody to work their hardest and if theyÆre not IÆm going to let them know it.
ōOn the field thatÆs just how I am. I canÆt even help it. Something just takes over me.ö
That level of determination served the Wildcats well in the early part of the season. Owen J. followed a narrow season-opening loss to District 1 power Conestoga with a string of wins that included a convincing 2-0 win over Boyertown and a thrilling 3-2 overtime win over Downingtown West.
The Wildcats were up to their annual level of success in the regular season and finished it as the PAC-10 Liberty Division champions.
But the weight of expectations to make another long playoff run kicked in when OJR was set to meet Boyertown yet again in the PAC-10 championship game.
ōI think we were a joking team off the field and when it got serious and business-like off the field it affected the teamÆs mental state,Æ Morgan said. ōCoach called us Team ADD because off the field weÆd be all over the place, not focusing on one thing. But we got so rattled and nervous about PAC-10s and Boyertown, and I think we took it on to the field. (Boyertown is) a good team with a lot of solid players and they wanted it as badly as we wanted it, and thatÆs always hard to play against.ö
What resulted was the two defensive-minded teams cancelling each other out, no team able to score a goal in 80 minutes of regulation and another 30 of overtime (all after their previous regular-season meeting ended in a scoreless draw).
It would be settled by penalty kicks ... much to MorganÆs displeasure.
ōCoach has known me since my sophomore year and he knows more than anything I hate penalty kicks. æCoach, I will do anything, just donÆt make me take a penalty kick.Æ I donÆt like penalty kicks, IÆm not good at them, I never really make them, they affect me so mentally.
ōWe would practice them so much, and in the beginning I was taking them with my right foot and they kept going out wide. So I decided to start taking them with my left foot just see how it goes. At practices I was making every single left-footed shot perfectly into the side-netting every single time. So I go up to take it with my left foot and I hit the post.ö
MorganÆs miss was the one shot not to be converted. Boyertown claimed its second straight title at OJRÆs expense, 0-0 (5-4 penalty kicks).
It was a heartbreaking moment for Morgan, but the PK may not be the biggest thing to stick in her craw.
ōWhatÆs most frustrating is they never scored a goal on us all season and somehow won PAC-10s,ö she said.
The district playoffs presented a new set of possibilities and, after a first round bye for the No. 3 seed Wildcats, the exuberance was back thanks in large part to Morgan as she scored the game-winning goal with 22 seconds to play to help OJR top C.B. South, 3-2, and reach the quarterfinals.
ōThat helped me let it go,ö Morgan said of giving her team the game-winner after her PK miss in the PAC-10 final was still fresh. ōI think after PAC-10s our fire plummeted. Getting that win back in such a dramatic way it re-lit the fire, got us motivated again, and excited and ready to take on the next team.ö
The Wildcats fire was re-lit, but the Downingtown West had been burning ever since losing to Owen J. since the first weeks of the season.
Though OJR took an early lead it was too big a task to hold talented West the rest of the way, the Whippets ultimately getting revenge in a 2-1 victory to deny the Wildcats an automatic berth to the PIAA playoffs.
The tale was all too similar in their next outing against C.B. East Ś OJR taking the early lead only to have the other team rally and win Ś ending the WildcatsÆ season short of their state playoff goal.
There was a palpable unifying effect the extreme experience of coping with a teammateÆs death in the WildcatsÆ quest to the state semifinals the year before, an effect that wasnÆt present this time.
ōI think Kelsey had a really big effect on us last year,ö Morgan said. ōIt brought us together a lot as a team, and not that her presence wasnÆt valid this year but itÆs different when it was so fresh. She was on the team, we had spent half the season with her already, and I think we felt it was our job to deliver for Kelsey.ö
With the senior class going out and the new class coming in you just donÆt have that strong connection because the team had such a strong connection. We had a greater purpose.ö
But even though the Wildcats didnÆt achieve the same heights as the previous year, it was still a senior season Morgan will look back upon fondly.
ōDefinitely, definitely, definitely,ö she said. ōI loved the team so much this year. I miss seeing them everyday, and the group of girls meshed really well. I know we didnÆt reach the heights we hoped to, but I feel we achieved a lot as a group. I donÆt want to say we underachieved, but I donÆt know if we achieved great things, either. I think we had a good season and we had fun.ö

Two-Vehicle Fatality Collision on I-69
Date of News Release: 09/26/2012
Dawson Springs, KY. (Hopkins County) - The Kentucky State Police is investigating a two-vehicle fatality collision that occurred on Wednesday, September 26, 2012 at approximately 1:15 p.m. It occurred on Interstate 69 (formerly the Western Kentucky Parkway) just north of the 32 mile-marker.
Preliminary investigation reveals that Mary J. Moore, age 34 of Louisville, KY, was operating a 2004 Isuzu Rodeo SUV northbound on I-69. For an undetermined reason, the SUV exited the left shoulder of the roadway. Mrs. Moore overcorrected and lost control of the vehicle. It turned sideways and traveled into the median. The SUV became airborne and struck a motorcycle that was traveling southbound.
The Hopkins County Coroner, Dennis Mayfield, pronounced the two occupants of the motorcycle dead at the scene. The names of the victims are being withheld until the next of kin has been located and notified. Both victims were wearing helmets. Mrs. Moore and her passenger/husband, Keith A. Moore, age 41, were transported via ambulance to the Regional Medical Center for treatment. Their injuries do not appear to be life threatening. Mr. and Mrs. Moore were wearing seatbelts.
At the present time, both southbound lanes of I-69 are closed from the Edward T. Breathitt Pennyrile Parkway to Exit 24, Dawson Springs. The road closure is expected to last two to three hours.
Trooper Ben Sawyer is continuing the investigation. Trooper Nick Rice and Trooper Luis Palmer, KSP Collision Reconstructionists, are assisting with the investigation. Sgt. Dean Patterson, Detective Lonnie Kavanaugh, Trooper First Class John Komar, Trooper Bob Winters, CVE Officer Richard Boulduc, the South Hopkins Fire Department, Medical Center Ambulance Service, the Hopkins County Coroners Office, SAFE Patrol, and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet assisted at the scene.

Three words: Bikini bull riding.
Though this event is only in the saloon area, it's still quite a draw for Gilley's Saloon and Dance Hall. You'll see more of the "big-Texas" theme throughout Gilley's in the saddle stools at the bar, the boot-shaped drinking glasses and yes, the mechanical bull. If you continue down the hallway, you enter the long dining hall area, where floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors face the Las Vegas Strip. There's also a small outdoor patio, perfect for viewing the excitement of the Strip.
When you plan to dine at Gilley's, come hungry. The Texas-sized portions of barbecue and extra large burgers with plenty of sides are sure to satiate your appetite.
For appetizers, try the fried green tomatoes, a Southern classic. Or, head straight for the sampler where you get a few bites of favorites like the barbecue pulled pork sliders, chicken fingers and hush puppies. Other options include a giant Bavarian pretzel with German mustard and cheese sauce or chili cheese fries and tots smothered in Gilley's chili.
Entr�es include tender fried chicken, juicy ribs and hot link sausages brought in from Texas. Sandwiches and juicy burgers are also available. All the food is done Texas-style. The ribs are smoked and slathered with barbecue sauce.
Specialties include maple chipotle pork chops or sweet tea rub ribeye steak cooked over a wood burning grill.
Be sure to add some sides to your order like chipotle cheddar tater tots or Southwestern sweet corn. One highlight on the menu is the crispy sweet potato fries, served with a fluffy marshmallow cr�me dipping sauce.
Gilley's offers Texas-style food and fun for the whole family during the day. At night, the saloon turns into one of the hottest country-style bars on the Las Vegas Strip.

California has never been kind to the Washington Capitals. Entering Monday's game against the Los Angeles Kings, Washington was a combined 23-46-8 on the road against the Kings, San Jose Sharks (Saturday's opponent, who defeated them 5-2) and Anaheim Ducks lifetime.
Things didn't change for the Caps Monday in a 5-2 loss to the Kings. What also didn't change is Washington's general lack of road success this season.
Washington's 7-12-1 road record and 15 points are second-worst in the Eastern Conference; only the Carolina Hurricanes' 12 points are lower. The Caps are also 1-6-0 on the road against Western Conference opponents.
There is a 13-goal differential between the home (65) and road (52) totals for the Caps and they've only scored nine power play goals while allowing 19. Luckily for the Caps, they begin a four-game homestand Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Unfortunately, Washington can't stay there for the rest of the season.

UC hospital workers allege unsafe working conditions
The first week in April was a rough time for Connie Salguero. The Filipina nursing assistant, who says she would've been eligible to retire in two years, reported to her shift at the University of California San Francisco medical center at Mt. Zion on April 1 — and was told she was laid off. Two days after that, she was forced out of her home through an eviction, but fortuitously met an elderly Filipina woman who said Salguero could stay with her until she gets back on her feet.
"This manager said to me, Connie, come here, let's talk," and delivered the bad news, Salgeuro recounted, getting a little misty-eyed. Two other Filipina hospital assistants in her unit met with the same fate that day, she said.
"I'm trying to find a job," Salguero said. "It's very hard. But I will survive." She projected a sense of resolve despite the whirlwind of sudden stress, which seemed fitting for someone whose job entailed feeding, bathing, and assisting up to ten bedridden patients at a time, many of them suffering from cancer.
Salguero said management told her the layoffs were necessary because of the most recent wave of federal budget cuts. But Cristal Java, lead organizer for UC patient care technical workers' union, AFSCME 3299, interjected during an interview with the Bay Guardian to refute that explanation, calling it "total crap. They don't want to tell workers the truth," Java said, "which is that the hospitals are extremely profitable."
Salguero is one of about 25 UCSF certified nursing assistants whose recent layoffs prompted AFSCME to register a formal complaint with the Public Employee Relations Board, an agency that mediates labor disputes. The CNA layoffs hit in March and early April as part of a raft of cutbacks that eliminated a total of 300 full-time equivalent positions. Some of those positions were unfilled while other staffers were reassigned elsewhere or had their hours cut; a total of 75 individuals were laid off.
The cuts prompted union representatives to organize a protest at UCSF's Parnassus Campus April 4, with San Francisco Sup. John Avalos and California Sen. Leland Yee turning out in support of the workers. Salguero was there too, waving a sign, and she wound up telling her story for an international broadcast by a Filipino news station. Things took a dramatic turn when police arrived on the scene, and Union President Kathryn Lybarger and some others were escorted off the premises in handcuffs.
Asked to explain the rationale behind the layoffs, UCSF spokesperson Karin Rush-Monroe responded, "We evaluated the impact of the Affordable Care Act, expected reductions in Medicare, MediCal and private insurance reimbursements," as well as employee benefits and rising costs in drugs and medical supplies, and ultimately decided on a 4 percent labor budget cut. "We must make a 'course correction' if we are to maintain our resources to care for our patients," Rush-Monroe said.
But the staffing cuts hit just weeks after AFSCME published a blistering report, titled "A Question of Priorities," charging that UC has prioritized profit margins at its medical centers since 2009 while needlessly eliminating frontline staff positions, all to the detriment of patient care.
"It feels very much like they're chasing down the Wall Street model of business," Randall Johnson, an MRI technologist at UCSF Parnassus Campus who is active with Local 3299, told the Guardian. "We're pressed to move faster and faster and faster. It's more about profit than it is about patient care."
Steve Montiel, spokesperson for UC Office of the President, told us that UCSF is "consistently ranked as one of the top hospitals in the country by U.S. News and World Report," and pointed out that the AFSCME report coincided with an ongoing contract dispute concerning patient care technical workers, which may lead to a strike authorization in the next few weeks.
can help make a hospital more efficient. A hospital is a business and not an institution for providing employment. Headcounts come and go, raise and decline.
We give managers the job of managing, and trying to second guess which employees they should retain and which they should let go is pointless.
And of course the Sequester will necessitate cuts in some healthcare and social services - the Democrats in DC understood that when they passed that law.
Live goes on, things change, accept it.
So if she'd been taking care of 15 or better yet 20 bedridden patients a day she would have achieved the necessary threshold of efficiency to keep her job?
So long as you personally weren't the 15th or worse yet, 20th patient.
Oh wait, I get it, you're a congressperson. You patient/caretaker ratio will 1/2 or 3, what with the gold plated Cadillac health you crooks vote yourselves.
But it is somebody else's job to determine how many staff we can afford.
"least effective"? and how did you come up with that answer? Did you see personally look through the people that were laid off and knew that they were not an essential part of their team or maybe they were the bottom of the barrel based on your assessment?
Layoffs in a hospital with record profits? I agree with the union -- "total crap!" CEOs should give back their bonuses so that patients don't suffer and workers can feed their families.
It's State run.
The Chancellor of UCSF earns about $450,000 annually. this doesn't include the house with the full staff and other nice little benis in the package.
And yes, they do get bonuses
Increasing efficiency just means less people doing more which necessitates providers giving less contact to patients. That is antithetical to providing quality care. Even if UCSF was on track to break even for the next three years, they should look at reducing medical administration aka "the people who add cost without adding value" instead of medical staff aka "the people who add cost as well as adding value." That they are choosing to lay off front line workers while increasing their administrative budget shows that their priorities lie in commodifying healthcare and treating patients as cashcows.
mean that we can do more with the same or less people.
Why ever pay more than we need to?
This article is pretty incredible.
Sen. Yee: "How do you lay off 300 individuals and think that it's not going to compromise patient care?"
Um, pretty simply answer Senator Smarty Pants: unemployed = uninsured = sick people can't pay for the care that they need. UC's census is down. WAY down. Unemployment has doubled in this state since 2007.
My Question: How do you frame such a loaded, ridiculous question and think it's not going to accentuate your shillish nature?
"She projected a sense of resolve despite the whirlwind of sudden stress, which seemed fitting for someone whose job entailed feeding, bathing, and assisting up to ten bedridden patients at a time, many of them suffering from cancer."
So. . . while there are no mandated patient / nurse assistant ratio's, there ARE state mandated patient / nurse ratios. So these patients above ARE getting the care that they need - perhaps not from low-skilled nurse assistants, but probably from educated caregivers with a broader scope of practice.
"AFSCME's 40-page publication portrays an internal environment throughout UC medical centers in which staffers — particularly frontline workers — are exhausted, overburdened, and dangerously likely to make mistakes."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh boy, that was a good one! Exhausted. . . from surfing the web all day and plotting FMLA abuse.
"It feels very much like they're chasing down the Wall Street model of business," Randall Johnson, an MRI technologist at UCSF Parnassus Campus who is active with Local 3299, told the Guardian. "We're pressed to move faster and faster and faster. It's more about profit than it is about patient care."

Answer: Nowhere. $150,887.99 in 2011. It's public record.
We've got it soooooo good here - why are so you determined to make us look like fool? The pay-scales, the pensions, the benefits - the. . . wait, pensions??? Those still exist??? Not for long if the pubic reads your quotes and decides we're ALL entitled little shits like you are. SO MANY CALIFORNIANS would do anything to work for UC. No wonder everyone is for pension reform, when you make it seem as if those who still may get one don't deserve it. F'n Goofball. . .
From 6/10:
UCSF generates 39,134 jobs in the Bay Area which constitutes 5.6% of SF's total employment. Of the 21k (actually 22,364 now) of those based at UCSF, only 5,698 are academic employees, leaving 14,665 professional and support staff and 1,540 managers.
Only the City itself has more employees, and barely (25.5K).
The Mission Bay area is also about to become home to a new hospital complex, expected to generate approx 2000 jobs.
Thank goodness for UC's good paying jobs. . .
