"Zach Randolph Day"
- Written by Tri-State Defender Newsroom
- Published in Sports
On and off the court in Memphis, many see Grizz big man Zach Randolph as having become the man and that was before there was an official proclamation to help make the case.
On Friday, Mayor A C Wharton Jr. made it official, issuing a proclamation declaring Zach Randolph Day. It was in recognition of Z-bo's "achievements and charitable events in the Memphis Community."
Zach racked another double-double – flashing his trademark smile and signing autographs rather than scoring in the paint and hauling down rebounds. All the while, there were various fundraising activities benefiting Le Bonheur Children's Hospital.
The day's events unfolded at the Walmart Neighborhood Market at 2856 Hickory Hill Ext., with the store's manager, Marty Gil, on hand, along with a representative from Le Bonheur.
As they awaited his arrival, some in the crowd shouted "Z-Bo 50! ZBow 50!"
No. 50 did not disappoint!

ARCADIA, Calif. (March 10, 2011) – Dubai You X Y Z, a 4-year-old gelding who began his career by winning a maiden claimer at odds of 52-1, continued his ascent up racing's ladder Thursday with a three-quarter length victory in Santa Anita's $59,400 feature at 1 1/8 miles on turf.
With Brice Blanc in the saddle, Dubai You X Y Z outfinished 7-5 favorite Bogie in the optional claimer to earn an opportunity in stakes company in his next start, according to trainer Mark Tsagalakis. "It think it's time to try it," Tsagalakis said in the winner's circle.
The Kentucky-bred son of E Dubai, owned by MT Racing Stable, rallied from fourth in the field of six to cross the wire in 1:36.22. Bogie, who pressed the early pace after closing strongly in his earlier races, held second by one length over Waltzing With Blue.
The second choice at odds of 3-1, Dubai You X Y Z gained his fourth win in five career starts. "The way he shows up every time is just a joy," said Tsagalakis. "And he's still looking around out there. I think he can just get better."
His winning purse of $35,400 boosted the earnings of Dubai You X Y Z to $100,200 following his modest beginning.
Tsagalakis recalled his first start at Santa Anita one year ago. "You try to start them in the easiest place you can unless they are Man o'War, and, of course, he isn't Man o'War," said the 47-year-old trainer.
Following the triple digit payoff in his debut, Dubai You X Y Z hit the sidelines before returning in November at Hollywood Park to capture a starter allowance competition. The only blemish on his record is a third-place finish when winding up just a head behind the winner.
Dubai You X Y Z settled into fourth on Thursday as Ace of Aces set the pace into the stretch with Bogie racing in second. The winner rallied three deep into the stretch to collar Bogie, who had taken over in the final furlong after Ace of Aces began a fade to last.
For his fourth victory, Dubai You X Y Z paid $8.40, $3.80 and $3.20. Bogie, ridden by Garrett Gomez, paid $3.20 and $2.60. Waltzing With Blue, with Martin Garcia aboard, paid $4 to show.
Racing continues on Friday at Santa Anita with an eight-race program beginning at 1 p.m.

Firefighters battled a chimney fire that required them to cut holes in the roof of a house at 4568 Scheidys Road in North Whitehall Township on Tuesday morning.
A man at the scene told Patch that everyone got out of the home safely.
Scheidys Road is located off Route 329 north of Ironton.
Chimney fires can burn explosively but can also be prevented by proper chimney maintenance -- especially keeping a chimney clean, according to the Chimney Safety Institute of America.
Each year, about 27,000 house fires start in chimneys or fireplaces.
This is the second fire in North Whitehall in two days. Monday morning, an old barn burned next to a slaughterhouse where two horror movies were filmed. That fire is being investigated as a possible case of arson.

Comments On Jun 30, 2014:I ran these on my wife's 2004 500 Sportsman. She doesn't use a lot of 4 wheel drive and both the front and back are worn down bad. Most of the riding was on hard dirt roads and rocky trails. I have twice the time on my Carliles on the same type of ATV and they still have plenty of tread on them...These tires are also prone to flats on rocky roads...Last set of these I ever buy.

Comments On Jun 02, 2012:bought a polaris 850xp with these tires. I got stuck the first time out crossing a sandy bottom river that I crossed 100 times with my stock tires on my old foreman with no problem. good trail tire but terrible in sand, digs way too much.

Comments On May 23, 2012:great traction,stiff sidewall for off camber moves does not roll under like the maxis bighorn.it's a heavy tire would only run them on big bore machines.

Comments On May 07, 2012:Save your money and get a different tire! Ordered four tires. These tires are heavier than most! On top of that they all had bad vibration...well two required 24 oz of weight to be balanced and the other two required 12 oz of weight. Sedona has no contact information. Very disappointed!!

Comments On Mar 17, 2012:Mudlites and a stock set of carlisles couldnt withstand the area that I ride in. Seems that when a tree falls it likes to hide its branch spikes. When clearing the trail you cant get them all. these tires are rockin so far. If you are having puncture problems I would strongly suggest the Ripsaws. Lots of large gnarly tred to stop those pesky branches.

Comments On Feb 29, 2012:Really impressed with these tires.
They ran great in the snow and slush, cleaned out pretty good in the mud and can be power slid when you need and the hook up is great!
But where these tires really showed up was lateral traction, the mark of a great tire. Sorry Bighorns, these beat ya' hands down.
We were on some pretty nasty angled trails and I didn't have to keep steering towards the top over and over...they just didn't slide AT ALL!
They are a little heavier than most aftermarkets, but the trade-off is worth it.
Keep in mind that these are on a Teryx, so a quad could be different as far as ride quality, but if its a UTV your buying for, you can't go wrong.
I'd buy another set in a heartbeat!

Comments On Jan 24, 2012:I use my Polaris Ranger for bow hunting in Arizona. This is the best all around tire. Desert, Mud, and Snow conditions. I tested these tires at 50 miles an hour and no vibration. I Highly recommend these tires. I have never seen this much rubber on a tire. 6 ply's help stable my ranger.

Comments On Nov 30, 2011:Had 26" on 2004 700 Kawasaki Prairie, yes I said HAD.The speed wobbles were horrible at 40+mph.However I put on over 800 miles and the tires held up Very well,with little wear,and no holes.Tire are heavy but did not notice any lack of power.Great all terrain tire as long as you keep it slow.

Comments On Nov 14, 2011:Exellent tires really impressed so far. Ordered them and with in 2.5 days they we at my house in British Columbia, Canada. Over all exellent tires at a awsome price cheaper then what I could get them for here.

Tampa Returns to Year-Round Irrigation Allowances - Find your new watering days at MyWateringDay.com
Tampa, FL
August 1, 2013
- Residents and businesses in the City of Tampa return to twice-per-week irrigation allowances today. The Southwest Florida Water Management District allowed the Phase III water use restrictions for the Tampa Bay Area, in place since March, to expire on July 31.
The following year-round irrigation days are now in effect for locations inside
Tampa's municipal limits
Locations with addresses ending in 0, 1, 2 or 3 can irrigate on Mondays and Thursdays
Locations ending in 4, 5 or 6 can irrigate on Tuesdays and Fridays
Locations ending in 7, 8 or 9 can irrigate on Wednesdays and Saturdays
Locations with no address, such as common areas, and business complexes with mixed addresses can irrigate on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Irrigation remains prohibited between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. on any day within the City of Tampa.
Irrigation day and time restrictions do not apply to locations using reclaimed water, micro-irrigation, or hand-watering non-turf plants using a garden hose nozzle.
Also lifted are the Phase III restrictions on fountain operations, car washing and recreational use.
For additional information on Tampa's irrigation days and water use restrictions please visit
or call (813) 274-8032.
Although Tampa and Hillsborough County have the same irrigation days, other rules, such as permitted times and maintenance allowances, do differ. Tampa utility customers located outside the municipal limits should contact Hillsborough County at (813) 275-7094 for additional details on water use restrictions.
While these changes take effect immediately, the City of Tampa will issue warnings through the month of August; account and property owners mistakenly watering on the old once per week watering day will not be issued a citation during this period. However, citations for time of day violations and other water use violations will continue to be issued on first observance. Citations on first observance for all observed violations will resume on September 1, 2013.
While resetting their irrigation controller, water customers are asked to test their rain sensing device and check for leaks in their sprinkler system. Having a properly functioning rain sensor, soil moisture sensor or smart controller can help avoid needless watering during and after rain events. More water efficiency tips and assistance is available online at

Quote from: Biggs3535 on June 10, 2011, 09:51:43 AMA Field Goal from the 3? Yeah, those days were awesome.That was an extra point after a 69 yard touchdown pass play from Garcia to Galloway. By the way, the Titans had a winning record that year, but the Bucs won that game. That's quite a rarity for current Buc teams.

PEORIA, Ill -- So far this year in Peoria, there have been over 600 gun-related crimes.
Peoria has also seen 9 homicides almost 9 months into 2012. David Kennedy, the author of 'Don't Shoot', says Peorians don't have to live like this anymore.
"It is not perfect, it is not miraculous, but it works and it can make a big difference," said Kennedy of his anti-gun strategy.
In fact, if Kennedy's 'Don't Shoot' approach is used appropriately, he said it is common for a city to see a reduction in shooting crimes by about 60 to 70 percent.
Kennedy said every city takes his basic outline and figures out a way to implement it.
First, police will target key groups, the people responsible for the majority of Peoria's criminal activity. Peoria police chief Steve Settingsgaard says they have already identified several prominent gangs they will approach. Second, they will bring in one or two people from each of these identified crime groups for a major intervention.
"We're going to talk to you for an hour. Take what you hear back to your group because it's a new day and everybody in your group needs to understand what we're about to tell you," said Kennedy.
The intervention meeting will include community and family members appealing to an emotional side. Social service providers will also be there to offer their help in any way needed. Finally, law enforcement will lay down some basic rules.
"This is not a negotiation, the shooting stops today. When you walk out there, the next group that puts a body on the ground everybody here, state, local, federal, everybody is going to make that group a special project," said Kennedy.
Kennedy says police may even have to hold up that promise several times to make a lasting impact.
Peoria officials say all the hard work will be worth it if they see the results that other cities are seeing, sparing lives from gun violence.

How to Narrow Your Topic
"I'm writing a paper on World War II."
Often students start their research with a very general topic, even though they may realize the topic is too large to deal with in a 10-15 page paper. Faculty and librarians tell them, "You have to narrow this down." But how do you narrow a topic?
Ask yourself--
- What discipline am I working in? If you are in a sociology class, ask a sociological question about World War II, like "How did WWII affect women?" If it's a political science class, your question might be something like "How did WWII affect presidential elections in the US?"
- What are some subsets or aspects of your topic. Some good aspects are:
- by place, such as a country or region
- by time period, such as a century, decade or year
- by population, such as men, women, ethnic group, youth, children or elderly
You can combine these ideas, "What were the major impacts of WWII on women in France, in the decade after the war?"
More ideas in our brief tutorial on topic selection and narrowing.
Choosing a Discipline
So, how do you know what disciplines you should use?
- Look at the department your class is offered by. That's a pretty obvious clue.
- Think about what other disciplines might discuss your topic. For instance, a paper on Education in Chile could involve both Education and Latin American Studies.
What do you do with this information? Search in the article databases dedicated to those disciplines. Here's a list of databases for each discipline, by campus.
- Berkeley databases
- Davis databases
- Irvine databases
- Los Angeles databases
- Merced databases
- Riverside databases
- San Diego databases
- Santa Barbara databases
- Santa Cruz

• Long• Information tends to be less current because it takes time to write and publish a book. • Subject matter is broad; can give an overview of a topic • Find them using a library catalog
Book chapters
• Briefer; like an article • Information tends to be less current because it takes time to write and publish a book. • Subject matter is narrow, like an article; could be a case study for example. • Find them using a database/ search engine, like JSTOR

A Jeep Cherokee narrowly missed crashing into a school building full of children Wednesday afternoon in Columbia.
Officials on the scene told News 2 the driver of the Jeep lost control on Old Zion Road in front of Zion Christian Academy around 1:40 p.m.
The vehicle left the roadway, ramped over a small creek and struck some guy wires on a utility pole before striking the tree.
When the utility pole was shaken, it caused a brief power outage for nearby customers.
Students at Zion Christian Academy were released about 30 minutes late while first responders worked to free the driver from the vehicle.
The Jeep was just feet away from striking the Fifth Grade Academic Building on Zion Christian Academy's campus when it struck the tree and a teacher's car.
About 36 students and some faculty members were in the building.
Only the driver of the Jeep was injured.
Headmaster Don Wahlman told News 2 the incident could have been much worse had the vehicle missed the tree.
The Tennessee Highway Patrol is investigating the accident.
An update on the driver's condition wasn't known.

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
The US Coast Guard rescued a 63-year-old man early Sunday morning in Lake Erie near Meinkes Marina.
The man's wife had reported to Brownstown, MI police that she had not heard from him since he left to go fishing on Saturday morning.
The Monroe County Sheriff's Dept. located the man's vehicle and trailer at the Bolles Harbor boat ramp and a Coast Guard boat was launched from the Toledo Coast Guard station. More Coast Guard crews and a Coast Guard helicopter were also later sent out.
At 6:40am Sunday, a person reported the man was stranded on an overturned boat.
His boat had reportedly overturned around 5pm the previous day in a squall.
The Coast Guard safely removed the man from the overturned boat and took him to Meinkes Marina in Anchor Point, OH to meet with emergency medical services.
The man's name has not been released. He was wearing a life jacket.

I've had a love affair with hash since I was a kid (the kind you eat, not smoke – though that hash and I did have an affair to remember some years ago). Hash was my favorite 'leftover' meal. Well, I did like those leftover cold eggplant parmesan sandwiches my mom put in my lunch box if there wasn't enough for a second meal, but I digress.
Using one of those old meat grinders you screw to a counter stop, Mom would grind up leftover lamb or roast beef, add potatoes and peas and I don't know what else and sauté it all in a skillet on the stove. Then she'd poach some eggs, plop them on top and serve. She always cooked the eggs just right… firm whites and runny yolks. I'd pop that yolk with a fork and let it run into the hash, mix it all up, add a little salt and I was in hash heaven.
After my dad died Mom went back to work in advertising on Madison Avenue where she started as a secretary, then was promoted to copywriter (though her desk was still in the secretarial pool and she often had to type letters for the male execs - all on a $1.00 more a day then she made as a secretary). She was my very own Peggy in "Mad Men".
Commuting from Bayside, Queens, Long Island into Manhattan didn't allow her time to cook as much, so I took over making many of our basic week day dinners for our little family – my brother, my mom and me. I broiled steaks, baked frozen French fries and heated up Campbell's Pork & Beans. I fried or boiled hot dogs and heated up Campbell's Pork & Beans, broiled ham steaks or swordfish and heated up Campbell's Pork & Beans… a favorite of mine was broiled lamp chops, frozen spinach or peas, and heated up Campbell's Pork & Beans… Have you caught the theme here?
My brother pleaded with my mother to stop buying Campbell's Pork & Beans. But the one meal he did love was my hash and eggs. Not my mother's hash, but Broadcast's canned corned beef hash. I can still sing the jingle – those Mad Men were good! What did I know? Of course, it never occurred to me to make the hash from scratch.
When I got out of college and moved into Manhattan, I still made that canned hash and eggs. For years I worked at "Black Rock," CBS' headquarters on 6th Avenue and on the ground floor was a wonderful restaurant named - what for it....... "Ground Floor" where I would often go to lunch, along with "network mad men" known as "suits." Unlike the "suits," however, I didn't go there for 2 martini, expense account lunches - I went because the Ground Floor served hash. So whenever I would crave this 'leftover' marvel, I didn't have to wait til I could open a can to heat up for dinner. I could have it mid-day!
Sometimes I still crave hash and eggs, but my husband won't touch it (dog food, he says), so I'd wait until he was on the road with some TV show he was writing for and I'd run to the market and buy a can of hash (I'd also buy skirt steaks for alternate dinners because he won't eat those either, but I digress yet again). On those nights, I'd heat up that canned hash and plop that poached egg on top, light a little candle on the coffee table and dig in while I watched ABC World News Tonight. Again, hash heaven.
Recently I was browsing through one of my many design magazines (my other life) and saw an article about chefs who surf in Coastal Living. One of these chefs was Micah Fields of the Venice California restaurant named… HASH! It was a sign! A real chef making hash! If a gourmet chef named his restaurant 'Hash' – then maybe my husband (a fine cook, himself) would pay attention to this delectable delicacy. I gave him the article which included a recipe for "Day-After-Thanksgiving Hash." Last night he indulged my hash habit.
Of course, it wasn't the day-after Thanksgiving, but I was so excited he was willing to do all that slicing, dicing and chopping, I agreed to bake a boneless, skinless chicken breast for him to use instead of leftover turkey.
The recipe also called for fried eggs instead of poached. Fine with me. Over easy, please!
Did my husband like the results of his slicing, dicing, chopping, sautéing, frying labor? Yup, he did. Hash is no longer 'dog food.'
And after dinner, I was in such hash heaven afterglow, I craved a cigarette. Ha. Just kidding.
So, if you're wondering what to do with your Thanksgiving leftover turkey (or leftover roast chicken) besides making turkey (chicken) soup, we both recommend a little hash, sautéed not smoked (well, unless you have smoked turkey).
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 16 minutes
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup diced sweet potato
1 cup green beans, cut into 1/4 –inch pieces
2 Tablespoons butter
1 small onion
1 Granny Smith apple, diced
1 Washington apple, diced
1 Gala apple, diced
1 pound smoked turkey breast, diced (or my ingredient: whatever leftover turkey meat)
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh sage or
2 teaspoons dried sage
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
12 large eggs, cooked to desired doneness
Bring chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan; add sweet potato, and cook 3 minutes. Add green beans; cook 2 minutes or until sweet potato is barely tender and beans are crisp-tender. Drain.
Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and apples, and cook, stirring often, 6 minutes or until apples begin to soften. Add potato mixture, turkey, and next 3 ingredients; cook stirring often, 5 minutes or until apples are lightly browned and turkey is heated through.
Divide hash among 6 plates; top each with 2 fried eggs, and serve immediately.
Makes 6 servings.

The Register-News
---- — MT. VERNON — Jefferson County is expected to launch its new website prior to the Memorial Day weekend.
Clint Eilerts and Claire Ploegman of the Arthur Agency provided an update on the website during Monday's County Board meeting.
Ploegman provided views of what the home page would look like, as well as links taking viewers to various other locations. Each officeholder will have their own page with information about the services their office provides to citizens.
Eilerts explained there will be seven basic page types. He said Arthur Agency is still awaiting information from several officeholders to complete work on the website.
Chairman Robert White asked Eilerts if the website could go live by the Board's next meeting on May 20, to which Eilerts replied it is possible, although some segments of the site will be missing — specifically, information from all officeholders.
"That works fine for us in terms of the website, but what I would like to do is come back on the 20th. At that point, I feel like we will be launch ready," Eilerts said.
"We would need to come up with a plan between now and then on when and how you want to launch. There's still some individual departments where we need some things, but basically the back end has been developed, and we just need to sew it all together," he added.
Eilerts and Ploegman made a public plea for photographs to go on the website. People with photographs should contact the County Board office for more information.
Jeff Haarmann of Affordable Gas & Electric made a short presentation to the board, noting the electric aggregation referendum brought before voters earlier this month did not pass in the unincorporated areas of Jefferson County. The referendum passed in 28 of 29 municipalities where the referendum question was posed, he noted. Haarmann said discussions are ongoing for an opt-in option for those who would like to participate in the aggregation with suppliers. Haarmann thanked the board for putting the referendum question on the ballot and said it is generally tougher to get the referendum approved in county governments, noting the referendum question barely passed in nearby Washington County.
The Board formally approved the appointments of Greg Sims to the Jefferson County Housing Authority and Dr. David Asbery to the Mt. Vernon Airport Authority; Steve Draege was appointed to the Centralia Enterprise Zone Board; and set May meeting dates of May 15 and 16 for committees and May 20 for the full board meeting.

By Daryl Nelson
— Most people know it's hard for children to pay attention in school without eating breakfast. But now a team of researchers has found out why that is.
Researchers from Ohio State University took brain scans of students and found those who ate a nutritious breakfast and were physically active every day achieved higher test scores and had more focus in class.
"Hungry kids can't learn and we've known that for a long time," said Ohio State Professor Bob Murray, M.D. "But now we know why they are not learning and what areas of the brain are really hindering that."
The skippers
According to statistics, 62 percent of teenagers skip breakfast once a week.
And based on figures released by The Wellness Impact: Enhancing Academic Success Through Healthy School Environments, only 38 percent of teens eat breakfast every day.
Unfortunately, many schools don't offer breakfast because of budgetary cutbacks, but Duke Storen, director of Partner Impact at Share Our Strength says it's still the school's responsibility to provide certain meals.
Storen believes schools providing breakfast not only help kids in the classroom, but it will help them in adulthood as well.
"Schools play a critical role in ending childhood hunger by connecting kids with healthy meals that do much more than provide essential nutrition. They improve a student's ability to focus and thrive in the classroom," said Storen.
"For example, research shows that the seemingly simple act of ensuring that children get school breakfast offers the potential for students to experience greater academic achievement, increased job readiness and ultimately more economic prosperity for our nation. Stronger, better nourished kids mean a stronger America," he said.
The evidence
Share Our Strength revealed these statistics:
Physical activity a factor
But it's not just missing breakfast that causes students to lose focus. Missing recess is a part of it, too.
According to figures released by the National Center for Education Statistics, 7 percent of first-graders and 8 percent of third-graders never had recess.
In addition, 14 percent of first-graders and 15 percent of third graders had recess for only one to 15 minutes a day. And 20 percent of U.S. school systems have decreased recess time by an average of 50 minutes per week.
The American Academy of Pediatrics says teachers shouldn't take away recess for disciplinary reasons, because it's just too important.
"Recess is a crucial and necessary component of a child's development," said the Academy in a statement. "It should not be withheld for punitive or academic reasons."
Sara Burie, an Exercise Physiologist at St. Mary's Hospital in Wisconsin says recess might be the only exercise kids are getting these days.
"I think that if you take away that recess, that's all the exercise activity they're going to get, especially with all the technology," she said in an interview with a local news outlet. "Kids especially just don't move anymore."
Cooperative effort
Recently, several organizations including the American Dairy Association Mideast and Ohio Action for Healthy Kids, hosted a statewide summit to discuss the link between nutrition, recess and academic performance.
Among the speakers was Audrey Rowe from the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service. Rowe said the USDA is doing its part to make sure more kids are getting healthy meals at school.
"USDA is focused on improving childhood nutrition through healthier school meals and greater access to school breakfast and summer meals," she said. "Through the leadership and hard work of Ohio Action for Healthy Kids, the American Dairy Association Mideast, Children's Hunger Alliance and our other dedicated partners, we are beginning to see progress and improvements in the health of our nation's children, ensuring that America's next generation is healthy, well-nourished and able to achieve great things."
According to a separate 2011 study, 17 million children in the U.S. don't have access to nutritious food, which is one child out of every four.

Apple TV Vs Google TV Vs Boxee Box
On release day I woke up at 5am to stand in line for the New iPad at my local Best Buy. I had no intention of buying an Apple TV. That being said, with intention to only buy a 32GB Wifi iPad, I ended up walking out with not only the iPad but with an Apple Dock, Bose SoundLink and of course, the new Apple TV.
I have 2 TV's in my house. A 46" Samsung LED HDTV powered by a Boxee Box (and 1TB drive connected for local files) and a PS3 and a 23" HDTV in my bedroom powered by my Logitech Revue. The Bedroom needed an upgrade so thats where my Apple TV went. Being as I now own 3 of the major TV media streamers, I thought I'd post my thoughts on how they compare to each other.
Apple TV vs Logitech Revue
My media weekspot is my bedroom. Google Sent me the Logitech Revue as a registered developer when it was released for free. Free is great! However its perform is not. The Google TV had me excited when I heard of its promises and when Honeycomb finally made its way to the Revue, I had high Hopes for it. I was wrong.
The Revue struggles to stream Netflix with out stopping to buffer every 5 minutes. IF I had a slow internet connection, I could understand the buffering however I have a 30mbps Down and 10mbps upload being pushed by the most consistent router I've ever owned, the Apple Airport extreme. The Revue was such a bad performer that it did more collecting of dust rather than media streaming. On paper the Revue out features the Apple TV however performance is everything on a media platform, no one wants lag when trying to enjoy a good movie. The UI was also a bit too laggy for my tastes. Everything launches a few seconds slower than what it should. Its painful to navigate. While I do like that the Revue has local content support, I never had great performance from any file format. It was a mixed bag from file to file. Again Not Ideal.
The Apple TV on the other hand has been great. I've yet to have any Netflix woes and it streams files from my MacBook Pro with out a hiccup. The UI is fast, though could be faster. It lacks local content via USB but it makes it up in performance.
Winner: Apple TV ( easily)
The Revue has the advantage when it comes to searching as a full size keyboard is alway easier to type on.... In theory. My issue with the revue keyboard is that I use it on the couch or in my bed and with no backlight its tough to see and very awkward to hold with typing. Again its easier than the Apple TV for typing but its no fun experience. As far as other features goes, the revue does have a decent selection of apps but performance really hindered the app experience. Even downloading the apps is painfully slow. Features are nothing with out good execution and Logitech/Google failed us.
The Apple TV Remote is very simple. I love the simplicity off it but as noted above, its not a fun experience trying to type in an email address with it. Luckily the iPad remote app can really save you a lot of time. As as other features go, the Apple TV has some default built in apps and streams YouTube and Netflix much better than the revue. iTunes library sharing is also a genius features and almost makes up for the lack of local content. If it were just features, then the Revue has more however the execution of the Apple TV feature set is of much higher quality.
Winner: Apple TV
Overall, the Apple TV is a great replacement for the Revue. The Revue gave me such bad Netflix performance that I rarely was able to use it. I find my self now watching more movies in bed than I did before and to think that this was only $99 as opposed to the $350 the Revue launched, its just a great product.
Apple TV vs Boxee Box
I love Boxee and have been using the software on my Mac for a while now. So when the Boxee Box was released I was excited however waited until the bugs were ironed out before purchasing. Its the main media streamer for my house and I thought I'd stack it up against the Apple TV.
As I noted above, Im not sure what the Boxee Box performed like when it was first released but I can report now that the BB holds its own. The UI is fairly lag free and also very beautiful. In fact, I think the Boxee UI is the best in the business. Netflix streaming is perfect and the file format support for local content is fantastic! There is not a file format I've thrown at it, that it doesn't stream and do so really well. Its performance is top notch.
Winner: Boxee Box
The Boxee Box remote is the best remote I've ever used. It provides the best of both the Revue and the Apple TV Remote. It sports simplistic controls and yet a quick flip to the other side and your typing on a full qwerty mobile style keyboard. My only gripe would be that its not backlit which makes it harder to type in a low light movie watching situation. Feature wise the Boxee Box is unrivaled. Boxee provides the best local content experience I've ever seen. I have 700Gb of Movies and TV shows on the HDD connected to my BB and it recognizes all of them. Not only that but it creates a Netflix like interface of my local files and provides movie info, ratings and a status to show if I have watched it or not. Its Brilliant for that alone. Add in all the apps that Boxee supports and it becomes even better, from Netflix to Vudu to youtube to a thousand more plus a browser.
Boxee Boxe's killer feature however is... Airplay support!
Winner: Boxee Box (By a Long Shot!)
Overall the Boxee Box is the best media streamer and platform on the market. It does everything and does it well. The Apple TV is a close second for simple UI and great performance and small footprint. I gave away the Logitech Revue because I had no use for it. I am really happy with my home media setup and think you can't go wrong with the Apple TV or the Boxee Box

Strack gives Red Storm lift
NORWOOD — Grant Strack tallied a hat trick and added an assist to help lead Saranac Lake to a 4-2 non-league victory over Norwood-Norfolk Monday in boys' ice hockey.
Strack opened scoring just over two minutes into the first period on an assist from Nick Bayruns, who had two on the day.
The Flyers tied it at one in the second period with just over a minute left on the clock on a goal from Troy Kovach. Tyler Fobare collected the assist.
Christian Thomas, just an eighth-grader, made it 2-1 Red Storm (2-2-1) with his first-career goal at the varsity level, which came on a power play. Chris Spicer and Strack picked up the assists.
Strack then tallied at the 9:58 mark of the third period to provide what proved to be the game-winning goal. He added an empty-net goal with 15 seconds remaining in the game.
Cody Smith also tallied for Norwood-Norfolk with Kovach adding the assist.
Drew Sturgeon and Quinn Urquhart added assists for the Red Storm.
"It was a really good non-league victory," Saranac Lake coach Will Ellsworth said. "It's very tough to play in a hostile environment. We weathered the storm; we played a limited style of hockey and came away with the win."
Despite Strack's hat trick, the player of the game for the Red Storm may have been their goaltender.
Blake Darrah faced 41 shots on goal during the game and turned away 39 of them to capture the victory. Brandon Richards made 23 saves in net for the Flyers.

Girls' hockey
Lake Placid 3, Salmon River 2
FORT COVINGTON — The Blue Bombers overcame the brilliant goaltending of Becca Leroux to hand the host Shamrocks a 3-2 setback in girls' hockey.
Leroux turned back 40 shots as Lake Placid held a 43-15 edge.
"It was a good win for us. It definitely was not easy," Lake Placid Coach Sandy Huber said. "Their goalie (Leroux) was really good and very aggressive.
"She frustrated us a lot, but the girls didn't up."
Kendra Manning, who assisted on the first goal, scored the game-winner at 7:55 of the third period. She found the top right corner from in close with Brooke Reid assisting.
The line of Reid, Manning and freshman Samantha Barney accounted for all of the scoring. Reid put Lake Placid up 1-0 2:30 into the second period and Barney tallied unassisted at 3:16 of the third.
"That line has been working really well together," Huber added. "They're very unselfish and are moving the puck well."
Tanner Stanton, another freshman, got the win in goal with 13 saves.
Lake Placid, 4-1, will host rival Saranac Lake at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday.

Police say a man is in custody following a campus alert at Southeast Missouri State where several women say they were touched and grabbed.
Campus police reported five incidents involving a man on a bike grabbing and touching women from behind.
Public Safety Director Doug Richards says, thanks to a report on Heartland News, they now have a man in custody.
According to DPS, James Corey Griswell, 18, is a registered sex offender in Cape Girardeau County. He is facing three counts of misdemeanor assault.
Griswell is accused of grabbing several women from behind as he rode past them on his bike.
Officers took Griswell into custody late Wednesday night.
He was taken to the Cape Girardeau County Jail on $5,500 cash only bond.
Richards says he is not a Southeast student.
The first incident reportedly happened back on November 4. The most recent one on Nov. 10.
It happened near Houck Place which is close to Houck Stadium near Belleview and Pacific streets.
Victims described the suspect as a white male wearing a blue striped hoodie and blue jeans, late teens to early 20s with long brown hair.

CNHI News Service
— Editor's note: CNHI newspapers that are not weekly subscribers to Taylor Armerding's column may publish this one if they notify him at firstname.lastname@example.com.
President Obama isn't in the habit of keeping many promises. But he is doing his best to keep the big one about "fundamentally transforming the United States of America" (even though, during a pre-Super Bowl interview with Fox News' Bill O'Reilly, he denied that he'd said it, pesky video to the contrary notwithstanding.)
This past week's announcement, using Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel as cover, of his intent to cut the military to levels not seen since before World War II is another incremental fulfillment of that promise.
No more of the odious "cowboy diplomacy" practiced by Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. The president has told us the tide of war is receding, terrorist groups like al Qaeda have been reduced to a shadow of their former selves, and he has pressed the diplomatic "re-set" button with our former implacable enemies so that they no longer want to destroy us.
If you still hear any "death to America" chants, they are coming from a few harmless fringe groups with no more evil intent than Red Sox fans chanting "Yankees suck."
Besides all that, as Hagel explained, we just can't afford it. He claimed the cuts are necessary "to sustain our readiness and technological superiority" – you know, kind of like when a bank says it is closing a few branches "to serve you better."
What a fabulous trade-off it will be – fewer guns, more butter. What's not to like?
Well, several things.
First, recall that the president has called for an "end to the era of austerity." Except, apparently, for defense.
Anyone who called for cutting an entitlement program to pre-World War II levels - many didn't even exist then - would immediately be laughed out of the room. The proposal would be described as "devastating" and "unconscionable," as "destroying the safety net," etc.
Beyond the hypocrisy is a much larger point: National security is the fundamental safety net.
I'm sure some of my beloved critics will say it is hypocritical for me, a professed small-government advocate, to defend military spending.
Indeed, I do favor limited government. But what I really favor is constitutional government. And the preamble to the Constitution calls for the federal government to "provide for the common defense." The very next phrase, by contrast, calls for it to "promote (not provide for) the general welfare."
In other words, provide guns, promote butter. Provide swords, promote plowshares. Or, to make it a bit more current, provide a strong military, promote charitable relief for the poor.
Calls for more spending on food stamps and other entitlements at the expense of defense twist the constitutional mandate upside down.
Defense is the one area where government should be – needs to be – big enough to let everything else exist. Without it, we will no longer have the luxury of debating how much to spend on education, health care and food stamps. Those become trivialities when your national survival is threatened.
I say all this with a major caveat: Defense spending is indeed wasteful and in many cases corrupt, as is the case in government at every level.
I witnessed a bit of that as a junior-level Army officer decades ago, on something as simple as leave. It was laughably easy to game the sign-in and sign-out procedures to gain an extra third to a half as much vacation time as you deserved. But the colonels at the top of my department did it, so everybody else below them did it, too.
Imagine if everybody took only the time off they deserved. Productivity would soar. And that is just one example. Everybody knows the procurement process is larded with waste and corruption.
Cleaning up that corruption would produce a better military for less money – a worthy endeavor. But the president simply wants to shrink it – a more dangerous endeavor.
That leads to the final point: The president and his people can say that a war is over all they want, but it is not over until all sides agree that it is over. Did we somehow miss a surrender ceremony involving the Taliban or al Qaeda?
Sure, we can quit the battlefield. Doing that reminds me of when I was a grade-school kid and another kid started following me home after school, harassing me, demanding that I fight him. This was long before anti-bullying committees existed, and kids were supposed to "work out" stuff like this on their own.
I wasn't much of a fighter. I told the kid that and even told him I didn't care that he called me a sissy. None of it mattered.
Finally, one day I threw down my books and went at it with him. Much to my surprise - and his, I'm sure - I knocked the wind out of him and managed to push him down while he was trying to catch his breath. Big moment. All of a sudden he wanted to be my best friend. Only then was it really over.
Sad to say, nations are like that, too, except that they are vastly more dangerous than fifth-graders.
We've supposedly learned that lesson multiple times in the past. Looks like we're going to have to learn it again. We can only hope it won't be even more painful.

North's Langford wins third state wrestling title
Sat. February 22, 2014 at 8:51 p.m. | By Joey Millwood

By JOEY MILLWOOD
Times-News Staff Writer
GREENSBORO — After winning his third consecutive state wrestling championship on Saturday night, North Henderson wrestler Mitchel Langford didn't run and jump into his coach's arms like all the other winners.
He didn't ignore the tradition because he's been there before, and it wasn't because he doesn't like tradition. Langford was wearing the Edneyville High School singlet, which has become a North tradition to honor the Edneyville teams.
Instead, it was a sign of respect for his opponent.
Three area wrestlers were still vying for a state championship when the state tournament convened Saturday afternoon, and Langford was the only one who had the opportunity to celebrate with his coach.
For Langford, it was all business. Like on the mat, the junior wasn't overcome with emotion after winning his third title. He said his opponent, Gabriel Wilson, is a friend and he didn't want to show him up.
Nonetheless, like has become routine, Langford dominated his foe, friend or not. The junior drug Wilson from one end of the mat to the other, grinding him down, until finally the levee broke and he cruised to another championship with a 10-2 victory.
"It never gets old," North coach Heang Uy said. "He can win in so many different ways."
Langford has perfected the craft and will have a shot at joining a chosen few next season who have won four state championships. The junior has been wrestling since he was 5 years old, and it showed on Saturday.
"It just hasn't stopped," Langford said. "It's been my life."
The win surpasses his brother Colby's two state championships for North, the last coming in Mitchel's freshman season.
And while Langford admits that he will celebrate tonight, his eyes are already shifting to the possibility of a fourth consecutive state title.
"No. 4, that's the biggie," Langford said. "That's the most important one of all of them."
While Langford will get another chance at a state championship, two seniors came up just short.
Rosman's Breyer Owen (132) lost 5-4 in a contest that came down to the final seconds.
"He wrestled a good match," Tigers coach Fred Whitman said. "I'm very proud of Breyer."
Another senior who dominated the entire season was Rhett Hoy. The Hendersonville wrestler steamrolled his way to the finals, but the match got away from him in the third period. Bunker Hill's Kyle Guins won 8-4 to steal Hoy's dream of a second state title.
Hendersonville coach Michael Jones reminded Hoy of what he's accomplished. Hoy has won one state championship and finished runner-up twice, which is a big deal, Jones said.
"Nobody can ever take that away," the coach said.
Rosman's Tanner Whitman (126) finished third in the 1-A tournament and Hendersonville's Charlie Bosshard (195) placed sixth in the 2-A tournament.

Alabama will join 43 states participating in the Money Follows the Person Grant Demonstration Project, which is funded by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
The program is designed to help states transition more elderly and disabled patients from long-term care facilities to home and community-based services.
State leaders will use the MFP funds to expand services in communities, allowing more Medicaid and Medicare patients to live independently.
"There is significant interest in increasing the number of options offered to Medicaid recipients who would like to live in the community and be more independent," said Ginger Wettingfeld, deputy director of Medicaid's Long Term Care Division and manager of the grant project, in a press release. "This initiative not only will provide Alabama with the means to continue in a direction that offers greater choice to our recipients, it also will help us maximize Medicaid's limited funds."
According to the press release, the savings associated with transitioning 625 patients will be more than $11 million.
Alabama will receive $3.4 million in the first year of the grant, and will be eligible for up to $28 million over the four-year project.
Wettingfeld said the project will not require new costs to the state, but will rather transfer funds from institutional to community-based programs.
State Sen. Greg Reed (R-Jasper) said the program could not only benefit patients living in an institutional setting but also provide more independence for disabled people already living in their communities.
Reed, who chairs the Senate Health Committee, said that during a presentation about the MFP program, he was given an example of someone who uses a wheelchair. Though that person may not need long-term care, it may not be feasible for him or her to get ready for work. However, funds from programs like Money Follows the Person could pay for assistance so that person could have a job and live independently.
In addition to supporting nursing home residents who wish to transition to the community, the Alabama Department of Mental Health is planning to work with Alabama's Medicaid Agency to develop and operate a second transition program. This waiver would enable Medicaid recipients who have a developmental disability or a mental illness-related diagnosis to have the opportunity to move to the community, too.

A sense of the ridiculous
I've always wanted to make a kids' CD. I love hanging out with children, and given that I make my living doing ridiculous voices for cartoons and commercials, I wanted to record an album of me reading funny children's poems I had written. But the project never got past the idea stage. Fast-forward to 2006: One of my friends learned that the entertainment agency she worked for needed a kids' band for a TV appearance. I'd talked a lot about making a kids' CD, and I guess she thought that meant music. Anyway, she volunteered me. I had no musical experience (unless you count winning a song-writing contest in third grade) and no band. But I can carry a tune, so I wrote a couple of songs that had kid themes, found a guy with a guitar, and asked one of my friends to sing harmony. Presto, I was lead vocalist of a kiddie rock band I called The Jimmies, after those candies you sprinkle on ice cream. Needless to say, we were not ready for prime time and didn't get the TV job -- but this was the push I needed. I wrote 10 more songs, and with the help of a fabulous producer and a studio musician, recorded a CD, Make Your Own Someday. In April 2007 we played at a YouthFest event in Sarasota and the band just took off. After that I sent the CD to every kids' radio and TV station, every music festival and Web site -- even handed it out to kids on the street. It paid off. We were number one on Sirius XM radio's Kids Place Live when the album came out and again in June of this year. And in 2008 we played Kidzapalooza, which is part of Lollapalooza, the famous music festival.What I Learned
The first thing I figured out was that it's a bad idea to perform downwind of a bubble machine. A more important lesson was that fear of failure paralyzes you. Because I was more committed to not failing than to succeeding, I had never tried my hardest on anything. I've given my all to this project, and its success has boosted my confidence. It takes a lot of effort to keep it going and still do my day job, but when a little kid runs up and throws his arms around me after a concert, well, that's just the best thing in the world.

San Francisco 49ers running back Frank Gore is dealing with a sore ankle. Gore was on the sidelines to start the second half, replaced by rookie running back Kendall Hunter. So far, reports are that the 49ers are just playing it cautious with Gore, resting his ankle and letting the capable rookie take over for a series. According to John Clayton of ESPN, the injury does not appear to be serious.
Gore struggled in the first half. He went into the locker room with zero yards on six carries through the first two quarters of the game.
Gore was nursing a sore ankle after San Francisco's win over Washington last week. The team did not believe it to be a serious injury, but they did take an X-ray just to be sure.
Gore's status for the remainder of the game is not clear. San Francisco is fighting for most of their offensive yardage through the air.

gRaphael JS Axis
I'm using the latest version of the gRaphael library.
Older versions appear to allow calls such as r.g.piechart, r.g.barchart, etc. However, I can't seem to get the newer versions to allow that.
I've created all my charts but I need to utilize the axis functionality and can't find any references to it other than r.g.axis(...) and as I said, i can't get those types of calls to work with the latest versions, so any pointers would be great.

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., June 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 13, 2009, 20-year-old Eagle Scout Ben Hair was tragically killed when he lost control of his 2007 Pontiac G5 while traveling down an isolated Virginia road on a Sunday afternoon, hitting a tree at 50 mph.
Ben's accident was a mystery to investigators: There were no skid marks, no other vehicles involved, no sign of distress and the airbags did not deploy. The car simply left the road for no apparent reason and hit a tree without braking. The accident occurred two miles from Ben's home, on a road that he had driven nearly every day for five years.
Nine months after the accident, Ben's parents received a recall notice from GM that the power steering unit on Ben's Pontiac G5 was defective. The Hairs immediately contacted GM and asked that it investigate the accident. Despite knowing that the Pontiac G5 contained the deadly ignition switch – and that Ben's accident had the same characteristics as the other ignition switch fatalities – GM told the Hairs that it had no responsibility. When the ignition switch fails, the car suddenly powers down, and cuts off the power steering, power brakes and air bags.
When the Hairs made their claim to GM in late 2010, the company became aware that Ben Hair was dead and that his Pontiac G5 was sitting in a junkyard. Yet, it continued to send the Hairs power steering recall notices – providing them with a constant reminder that their son had been killed in a GM car.
In an effort to stop the recall notices, Ben's parents traveled to GM dealerships on three separate occasions, asking them to have GM stop sending the recall notices. The Hairs filled out forms and spoke to dealership management, but GM continued sending notices to the Hairs every couple of months.
The recall notices tortured the Hairs mercilessly – and the situation was already tragic. Because the accident site is only two miles from the Hairs' home and on the only road into town, Ben's mother, Brenda, began refusing to leave the house. In January of this year she suffered a stroke, and is now paralyzed.
On May 21, 2014 – after learning that GM had fraudulently concealed the fact that their son's car contained a defective the ignition switch – the Hairs filed a wrongful death lawsuit against GM in federal court. Yet, even this didn't stop the recall notices. On Tuesday, June 4, 2014, the Hairs received another recall notice for the power steering and ignition switch. Incredibly, that same day, GM CEO Mary Barra issued a public apology for sending families, like the Hairs, recall notices when their family members had already been killed by GM cars.
On Saturday, June 7, 2014, the Hairs received a letter in the mail from GM. They thought it was a letter of apology for having been sent countless recall notices over the past four years. It was not. It was another recall notice.
"The company just won't stop," said Jonathan Michaels of MLG Automotive Law, the Hairs' attorney. "The Hairs have met with managers at GM dealerships, have sent written requests to GM and have filed a federal lawsuit, and the company just won't stop," said Michaels. "Imagine for a moment receiving constant reminders of how your son died, every couple of months, over the course of four years – and not being able to do anything about it. It is the most inhumane treatment of a customer I can imagine."
