Analysis of all RBs with >100 yd games
Analysis of all RBs with >100 yd games (through Wk 11)
I have a spreadsheet with all the information from every RB that had a game with >100 yds rushing from this season.
The information is broken down by player and by carry and by quarter.
Here is some summary information.
Interestingly, if you average by the number of yds/qtr it is very similar:
1st qtr: 33 yds
2nd qtr: 27 yds
3rd qtr: 32 yds
4th qtr: 32 yds
Some people like to pull the outliers out, like the 95 yarder that Chester had.
Well, here's a summary of the long runs for every RB that has broken the 100 yd barrier this season.
Yards of longest run
90-100: 1.2%
80-90: 0%
70-80: 7.3%
60-70: 1.2%
50-60: 7.3%
40-50: 6.1%
30-40: 13.4%
20-30: 40.2%
0-20: 23.2%
That means 63% of all the >100 yd games by RBs this season were made up of runs of < 30 yds.
Almost a quarter of the over 100 yd games came from <20 yd runs added up.
I was just curious.
If anyone has any questions that I didn't look at related to this data set fire away.
It would only take a few seconds to figure other things out because it's all in a spreadsheet.
Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please. Mark Twain

"Some work better on cats than others, and some are better for larger dogs with thicker nails," said Eckman. "Others claim to 'find the quick' so you don't cause the nail to bleed, but I don't think these work very well."
Letting your pet become acclimated to nail clipping at an early age can also help the process go more smoothly. Once they become comfortable with you holding their paws as kittens or puppies, gradually start clipping one or two nails a day, and follow up with lots of positive rewards for their cooperation. Giving them their favorite treats or even a long tummy scratch should do the trick.
Even with the most painless technique and gradual of introductions, there are pets that seem unable to get over their terror of nail clipping. If your cat or dog falls under this category, it may be helpful to seek help from an assistant to hold down and calm them while you do the deed. If that backfires and your pet is still too stressed, then talk to your veterinarian about strategies to help make nail trims less stressful, Eckman said.
Pet Talk is a service of the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences at Texas A&M University.

Leading Lifeline carrier helps low-income Americans stay connected to family, doctors, employers and emergency services
COVINGTON, Ga., June 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Life Wireless has been approved to offer subsidized cellphone service to eligible low-income residents in Iowa, North Dakota and Washington.
Life Wireless provides phone service through the federal Lifeline program, which was created by Congress in 1985 to ensure that all Americans have access to quality telephone service.
To be eligible for the Lifeline program, potential subscribers must take part in a federal assistance program such as Medicaid or Food Stamps, or earn no more than 135 percent of the federal poverty level. Customers may not receive service from more than one Lifeline carrier at the same time.
Customers receive a basic mobile handset with voicemail, text messaging, call waiting, and other features. Calling plans offer up to 250 minutes a month.
Life Wireless phones help people stay in touch with doctors, family members, and emergency service providers. The service also enables customers searching for work to provide a callback number to potential employers.
"We're thrilled to bring our service to these states," said Jim Carpenter, a senior vice president with Life Wireless. "Our sales representatives go into the community to reach those most in need of telephone service, thus fulfilling the mission of the Lifeline program."
Life Wireless is committed to preserving the integrity of the federal Lifeline program and delivering affordable telephone service to eligible low-income families and individuals. Life Wireless performs multiple checks on each potential customer to verify that they qualify for phone service through the Lifeline program. All Life Wireless sales representatives receive extensive training and oversight to ensure that company policies are upheld.
"A cellphone is no longer a luxury item. It's become a vital tool that's necessary to participate and compete in today's world," said Carpenter.
Those interested in obtaining Lifeline service, or becoming a Life Wireless sales representative, may complete an application at the company's web site, www.lifewireless.com.

Polar Frontier to Open Thursday, May 6
Media Alert:
Thursday, April 01, 2010
April 1, 2010
Patty Peters
Associate Zoo Director Community Relations
The media is invited to preview the Columbus Zoo's polar bears in their outdoor habitat at Polar Frontier which opens to the public on May 6, 2010. The polar bears arrived at the Columbus Zoo on Friday, February 19 and have been adjusting to their indoor surroundings while work on their outdoor habitat was completed.
Polar bears "Aurora" and "Anana" are three-year-old sisters. They were born at the Toledo Zoo on November 25, 2006 and lived at the Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium from December 2008 until coming to the Columbus Zoo. The name "Aurora" is in reference to the northern polar lights and "Anana" is an Inuit word meaning "pretty".
The media is invited to see the polar bears in their Polar Frontier outdoor habitats on Friday, April 2 from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Video footage and still images of the bears are also available.
Media should come to the Zoo's Business Office located on Jerry Borin Trace north of the Zoo. Zoo staff will be available to assist with getting everyone to the habitat and arrange interviews. Please call in advance so we can escort you to the habitat as quickly as possible.
Polar Frontier represents a long-abandoned mining town and will draw guests into the Arctic Circle; connecting them to the animals that live in some of the coldest climates in the world. In addition to polar bears, Polar Frontier will include brown bears and Arctic fox.
The polar bear habitat features a 1.32-acre yard with two pools, smell ports, dig pits and shelters. The still pool is 167,000 gallons and visitors can view the bears from above, at eye-level, and below (imagine having a polar bear swimming over your head!) The other pool is a surge pool with a tidal effect, providing enrichment with various depths and moving water.
The $20-million attraction is made possible due to the generosity of Franklin County residents and funds raised through a county property tax levy. Corporate and private contributions include significant gifts from Battelle, Nationwide, the David C. Goss family, and the Ed and Ellen Klopfer family.
Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is open 363 days of the year 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. after Labor Day. General admission is $12.99 for adults, $7.99 for children ages 2 to 9 and seniors 60+. Children under 2 and Columbus Zoo members are free. The Zoo was named the #1 Zoo in America by USA Travel Guide and is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA.) For more information and to purchase advance Zoo admission tickets, visit

CATEGORIES Action, Foreign Language, Horror, Thrillers, Deals, Mystery & Suspense, Newsstand, Home Entertainment, Cinematical Indie, Features, Movies, CinematicalIn association with the UK's Tartan Films, the Sundance Channel has picked up exclusive television rights to a nice little pile of films that will air in their Asia Extreme block at midnight on Sundays, starting in April. The films included in the package are 2/3 of Chan-wook Park's Revenge trilogy (Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance and Oldboy), Samaritan Girl, A Tale of Two Sisters, Memento Mori, H, Phone, and A Snake of June.
Yes, seven of the eight films are Korean (A Snake of June is Japanese) - apparently that's what passes for "Asian" these days. China? Hong Kong? Never heard of them. And yes, the whole "Asia Extreme!" marketing gimmick is idiotic and offensive. But the fact is that it's great these movies are going to be on cable, no matter the context. It will be interesting, however, to see if Sundance still cares about airing these films when the current buzz over Korean film expires - that's when such a block will really be appreciated by fans of Asian cinema.

Spice Girls reunited for album
11:00am Wednesday 26th September 2012 in News
SPICE Girls star Mel C yesterday admitted it was "emotional'' to team up again with band-mate Emma Bunton on her new solo album.
Known as 'Sporty Spice', Melanie Chisholm, who has a house at Catbrook, near Chepstow, met fans and signed copies of her sixth solo album in Glasgow.
Stages is a collection of show tune covers, inspired by her time spent watching productions in the West End and later starring in two.
Mel C appeared in Blood Brothers in 2009 and she plays Mary Magdalene in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar, which is on tour now.
Tracks from both shows are included on the album: I Don't Know How to Love Him from Jesus Christ Superstar and Tell Me It's Not True from Blood Brothers.
While working on the album, she was reunited with 'Baby Spice' Bunton, who features on the track I Know Him So Well, from Chess.
"It was so lovely to work with Emma again. We're still really good friends and we socialise a lot together,'' Ms Chisholm said.
"Occasionally we have the opportunity to work together, but recording was something we hadn't done for a very long time.
Hearing our voices together is really emotional and I'm really happy with how the song sounds.''

The Harnett County Sheriff's Office said an 18-year-old is in custody after they said he assaulted three people before a mobile home caught fire.
A Coats police officer arrived first at the residence on Keyman Drive following a domestic disturbance call around 7 p.m. Friday. A single-wide mobile home was on fire when the officer arrived.
Authorities said three people were assaulted. A family member, a neighbor and the girlfriend of the suspect, Christopher Valdez, were assaulted. Two of the injured were transported to the hospital for treatment of injuries.
The sheriff's office said Valdez will be in charged with assault on a female and other related charges.
The cause and origin of the fire is also under investigation.

Former UR soccer player becoming UR football kicker
Posted By Renee Ruggeri On February 12, 2013 @ 7:08 pm In Football,Slideshow,Sports,Top Stories | 3 Comments
Brandon Jordi is trading in a soccer ball for a football, as the longtime soccer player joins the Richmond Spiders football team as a kicker.
Since the university administrators announced their decision to cut the men's soccer program last semester, freshman soccer player Brandon Jordi has decided to stay and pursue other athletic opportunities. He tried out and made the football team as a kicker.
This is not Jordi's first time dabbling with the pigskin. After his high school football team's kicker was injured, Jordi's best friend, who was on the team, encouraged Jordi to fill in. Jordi, who was listed as a midfielder and a forward on the men's soccer team roster, ended up kicking two games for his high school football team in Charlotte, N.C. The South Charlotte Weekly named him a Special Teams Player of the Week.
"My high school football coaches told me that if I pursued football, I would have a chance to make it far," Jordi said. "I love the sport and watch it all of the time. Now I actually have the opportunity to pursue it."
Jordi said he had friends on the football team who had given him details about whom to contact.
Open tryouts for the football team are held the first week of both the fall and spring semesters, said Erin O'Riley, director of football operations. O'Riley said she had sent out a Spiderbyte to all of Richmond's male students with information regarding the tryouts.
Any full time student could try out. O'Riley said the players had to run and participate in drills, some being position-specific. The team holds tryouts for various positions, but will concentrate its efforts on the positions that are lacking in numbers, O'Riley said.
Because three special teams players had graduated last year, the team was "in the market for a kicker and punter," O'Riley said. Five men tried out for the special teams squad, and the team chose to keep three of them. While no one in the football program was able to comment on Jordi directly because he is not officially on the team's roster, O'Riley said a situation like his was ideal because of the similarities between soccer and football kicks.
"I'm so thankful to coach Rocco and everyone on the team, and I hope to make an impression on and off the field," Jordi said.
Jordi said he still could not believe he would be playing Division I football, but did note that there had been a transition.
"The first few days were definitely intimidating," he said. "But everyone has been really nice, and I've made friends on the team." He said he had been lifting and running with his new teammates Monday through Friday as part of off-season training.
Despite having a soccer player's stature (Jordi is listed as 5 feet 8 inches tall on the soccer roster), Jordi said he did not think going up against 300-pound linebackers would be a problem, and that with practice, he would be successful.
Although he said he was excited, Jordi said he was going to miss his old sport. "Soccer has been my whole life," he said. "I worked so hard for a scholarship. It was really tough to have it all taken away in the blink of an eye."
Jordi, however, is not sulking. "I'm so lucky and happy to be playing on a team again," he said.

Malignaggi vs. Mosley, Update: Fight is financially falling apart

Sad as it is, I actually can imagine Mosley winning this fight. I hope it stops with imagination.
I know that what he did against Alvarez was close to nothing but Malignaggi is small WW and doesn't have the power to Ko someone - which is the best way of sparing the audience of yet another most boring fight of the year candidate.. Mosley has got a good chin on him anyways so I wouldn't be worried about that even against a bigger puncher. If Shane doesn't bring at least 1% of that beast he once was, we are in for a boring, shell-shocked, bro hugging performance.
Paulie's main weapons should be his jab and craftyness that he brings to the table. Footwork and good ring generalship should serve him well too. Good thing Paulie can take a punch as well.
The chances are slim for Shane, but...what IF ??!!
All bs aside, this is a terrible matchup. If a non-deserving Mosley really wins and gets a title...ima hang myself.
Your thoughts?

Even though I was glad to see Shane retire because I got tired of seeing him looking like a Chipmunk after each bout the one thing going into this fight is that he knows that Paulie punches like a 2 year old baby girl so he won't be getting put to sleep or even remotely damaged. Malignaggi's best bet is to stay outside and box and use his speed and he will be able to beat Mosley but if he even thinks he can stay in the pocket and trade with Shane then he'll end up like the oh so overrated loaded gloves MargoCHEATO.

Hampton Roads area students from kindergarten through the 12th grade will have the opportunity to prove just how much they know about computers Saturday, March 25, by participating in the 16th Annual Great Computer Challenge at Old Dominion University.
Co-sponsored by Old Dominion, WHRO and the Consortium for Interactive Instruction (CII), the competition challenges students to demonstrate their skills in various computer applications and programming by solving problems they might face in the "real world." The Computer Challenge has two different divisions: a Senior Division for grades 8-12 (to be held March 24), and a Junior Division for grades K-5 (to be held May 19).
In the Senior Division competition, students in grades 9-12 will compete in the following categories: Desktop Presentations, Desktop Publishing, Graphic Arts, Music, Web Design, Integrated Applications, Visual Basic Programming, C++ Programming and Computer Assisted Design (CAD), a category new to this year's competition. Students in grades 6-8 will compete in the same categories, with the exception of C++ programming and CAD.
Past challenges for the Senior Division have included:
· You are a staff member working for the director of the SuperHuman Soccer League which consists of 10 teams. Your job is to keep track of all the scores and the different statistics of these 10 teams. In the middle of the season you find out that it is difficult and error-prone to keep all the data on paper. Since you just finished a computer course, you decide to develop a system to keep track of all the information for the league teams. You are required to provide reports to the different teams on their current league status and trends. (Integrated Applications category, grades 9-12)
· Your school publishes a phone directory each year. You have been tasked to design this year's directory. Create the cover and one page of the directory with six student entries on the page. (Desktop Publishing category, grades 6-8)
For the Junior Division competition, students in grades 3-6 will compete in four categories: Desktop Publishing, Desktop Presentations, Graphic Arts and the Internet Scavenger Hunt. Students in kindergarten, first and second grades will compete in the Desktop Publishing and Graphic Arts categories.
Past challenges for the Junior Division have included:
· Who was the person arrested for spreading the Melissa virus, and what city was he from? (Internet Scavenger Hunt category, grades 3-5)
· You are a part of a team whose job it is to build an aquarium for your town. Draw the fish and other animals that will live in this aquarium. (Graphic Arts category, grades K-2)
Old Dominion faculty and staff, as well as local business leaders, will judge the competition, which will be held in Webb University Center. First, second and third place, as well as honorable mention, will be recognized in each category. Students in kindergarten, first and second grades will be awarded superior, excellent or good ratings.
Up to five students from grades 9-12 and up to three students from grades K-8 may participate in teams for this year's challenge. Schools may enter one team in each category. Each team must provide its own computer, software and printer for the competition.
Registration fees for the conference range from $30 to $40, depending on competition level, for CII members. The cost is $85 to $95, depending on competition level, for non-CII members. For more information visit the Great Computer Challenge Web site at http://www.cii.k12.va.us/gcc.html.

dynamic DNSShort for dynamic Domain Name System, a method of keeping a domain name linked to a changing IP address as not all computers use static IP addresses. Typically, when a user connects to the Internet, the user's ISP assigns an unused IP address from a pool of IP addresses, and this address is used only for the duration of that specific connection. This method of dynamically assigning addresses extends the usable pool of available IP addresses. A dynamic DNS service provider uses a special program that runs on the user's computer, contacting the DNS service each time the IP address provided by the ISP changes and subsequently updating the DNS database to reflect the change in IP address. In this way, even though a domain name's IP address will change often, other users do not have to know the changed IP address in order to connect with the other computer.

The Tacoma Art Museum exceeded its $15.5 million fundraising goal for its new addition, its director announced Wednesday.
During a ceremony to install the last beam -- known by craftspeople as a "topping off" ceremony -- director Stephanie Stebich told the dozens in attendance that such fundraising success shouldn't discourage them from continuing to give.
"Feel free to write a second check," she said, and was greeted with warm laughter.
The museum broke ground in September on an expansion and renovation to house the private art collection of German billionaire Erivan Haub and his wife, Helga. The Haubs will donate 280 works of art that have been in their private collection, as well as fund an endowment. The donation and expansion will add 10 jobs to the museum staff.
One of the Haub's daughters-in-law, Liliane Haub, attended the ceremony Wednesday. She has been deeply involved in the planning, and she was effusive in her gratitude to Tacomans.
"Thank you to the city and the people of Tacoma for being so enthusiastic about the art and the gift," she said, a point she emphasized later in an interview. The Haub family collection is large, and often museums don't have room for ones of its size.
In a sign that the Haubs will continue to be involved in Tacoma, Liliane Haub will take a seat on the museum's board of trustees. She has a background in art curation, as well as being the representative for her family's collection.
"The family's connection to Tacoma will be even stronger" as years go by, Haub said. Her husband spent his childhood summers here. They brought their own children, who now all are young adults. "We're coming out more," she said.
The Haubs also own significant property in downtown, including the Columbia Bank Center.
Laura Fry, the first Haub curator of Western Art, said the first exhibition will be "Northwest in the West: Exploring our Roots" and will open on May 10. The show will answer the question of how Western art is a natural fit for a museum with a Pacific Northwest focus.
The Haub donation already has inspired another donation, Stebich announced. Christopher and Astrid Forbes, friends of the Haubs, have given a piece by John Nieto, whose work is represented in the Haub collection as well. Separately, a family learned of the plans for the Haub collection and donated their collection of 200 books and journals detailing Western art.
Stebich said gifts like the Haubs inspire such chain reactions.
"Transformative gifts inspire other people," she said. "They're watching to see how we handle (the Haub) gift. It will pay dividends far into the future."

- " I loved it. Fantastic. I stayed in a one bed private room with a shared bathroom. No problem what so ever. I had brought my swim suit in case I had time to use the pool but you need a swim cap (they sell them for $10) which I decided when I return I will have one with me. Nice area all things considered and really I think quite a nice deal for NYC. Lots of little perks that I found out about by staying there...so I will let you be surprised too! "
- 07 Dec 2013 Anonymous USA
- " Great choice if you want to be in walking distance to Midtown and Time Square. The rooms are very small, the bathrooms could be bigger and more modern, kitchen and lounge are really small and uncomfortable as well, but they try to keep everything nice and clean. I liked the security(have to show your room card when you enter, security pin for women's showers) and the gym which you are free to use as guest (cardio, weights and lots of fitness classes).Good Wifi. Only breakfast was missing. "
- 06 Dec 2013 Anonymous Germany
- " The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was small but adequate. For the money, we couldn't have gotten a better place to stay for our 4 nights in NYC. We will plan to stay there again. "
- 05 Dec 2013 Jean USA
- " The overall experience is positive. The story is simple: the location is great, rooms are small (but not 3x1.5 sq.m as some indicated here; I think the single room is about 7-8 sq. m.), but manageable. There is a fridge in the room. I stayed for a few days and had no time to use the facilities, so I don't know about the swimming pool. The large gym looked fine. Thus, for the price you can definitely stay here, provided you do not intend to invite friends to your room for a drink. "
- 04 Dec 2013 Anonymous Georgia
- " The "Y" blends economy with excellant location, cleanliness, convenience, safety and security, and a broad range of amenities. Yes the room in compact and the "double" is a bunk setup and there is no bath or toilet in the room but the gang facililties are perfectly acceptable and sufficiently private. For all but the pampered wealthy, the "Y" is all one needs and certainly all a traveling student needs. "
- 02 Dec 2013 Anthony USA
- " One of the shower compartments of the female bathroom on 6/F didn't work, and the only other one doesn't have a shower head - there was only a pipe... "
- 28 Nov 2013 Anonymous Hong Kong
- " The room was very dirty and smelled quite awful. It would have benefited a lot from a quick mop even. I did not feel comfortable using the bed sheets or towels, and the heating was not on at all, so it got quite cold. The bathrooms were not very clean either. Overall, I was not pleased with the stay, but it was a reasonable price for the location. "
- 27 Nov 2013 Shahd Ireland
- " The bedding had not been washed and the walls, floor etc. were almost untouchable. I had booked a room with 2 single beds and ended up with bunks. Luckily I was traveling with someone who could climb up. "
- 09 Nov 2013 sally
- " It is in the mid town, a very nice place. The rooms, bathrooms and toilets are very clean. But the rooms are too small, too small. The wifi connection is too bad. "
- 08 Nov 2013 Anonymous Myanmar
- " Best place. Shared bathroom but clean. "

"For many of the Staten Islanders living along the coast, looking at the requirements on new flood maps may leave them with a tremendous question they are not sure how to begin answering," reports the Staten Island Advance: "How can I afford to raise my home so many feet off the ground?"
Daunted by the cost of elevating an existing home, residents of the New York borough are wondering whether FEMA's "Increased Cost of Compliance" program, which can pay up to $30,000 of the cost of raising a house, will help, reports the Advance. And they're considering whether it makes more sense to accept a buyout of their storm-damaged homes — funded either by FEMA, or by New York State.
Staten Islanders are turning to the lessons drawn from Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, where a variety of government programs sprung up to fund home elevation work and buyouts ("On Staten Island as in New Orleans, nowhere to go but up," by Jillian Jorgensen). But those programs ran into trouble, the Advance notes. In many cases, people accepted the government payouts, but didn't improve the homes (or release the title to someone else who might). Says the paper: "In 2010, a report from the HUD Inspector General noted that 80 percent of those who received those $30,000 Road Home elevation grants had not elevated their home — despite signing a contract promising to do so when they accepted the money."

A 21st Century City
I think Phil is right - San Francisco can lead the 21st century, but we have a 19th century governing structure. We need to modernize our City Charter to fit the needs of contemporary times. And I think that technology can play a major role, especially because we're already leading the nation in terms of biotech, green tech and web 2.0 media!
Wireless city
What ever happened to public wireless throughout the city? This would be good for us all, especially for those who don't have their own broadband connection.
I agree - I'd love to have
I agree - I'd love to have access to public wireless. Its one of those small things the city can do to improve the lives of its residents and just make everyone's day a little better. SF is truly a great place to live, but we can always make it better.
We're in the 21st century, and it's about time government started using technology and new innovations to improve communication and overall efficiency in their operations. There are so many technological tools out there, so why is city gov still bogged down in endless piles of paperwork, jumbled websites and overcomplicated bureaucracy?
Wireless spots
I just wanted to thank all the local shops that provide free wireless in their stores. (And it really does help business! I don't see many people coming inside a cafe, sitting down for hours, and not buying anything.)
While we passed support for free wifi all over the city, we were not able to implement a plan because the Mayor and the Board were not able to agree on how to do it, so it never happened. We do have individuals who have open internet portals throughout the cities through Meraki or simply not protecting their wifi networks. The City has installed wifi in most of their public housing projects. We are looking to provide wifi in City Hall in the Assessor - Recorder's office which would also allow the rest of City Hall to have wifi as well. Do you think that would be a good use of City resoruces?
Why no Wifi?
I think providing Wifi in City Hall is a start. And, the natural next step is to expand citywide. I am, however, interested in knowing what the issues were between the BoS and the Mayor that lead to the demise of San Francisco wifi. I was unable to dig up any articles on the matter online.

American humorist Mark Twain once wrote, "the reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated."
And then he died.
According to Brooklyn Paper's Will Bredderman, neighborhood institution Hinsch's [8518 5th Ave], which was expected to close March 1, has dodged the figurative bullet – and will in fact remain on 5th Avenue for the foreseeable future.
Hinsch's partner Roger Desmond, who helped save the circa 1948 soda fountain and luncheonette in 2011, told Bredderman that a deal he had been negotiating with a "national burger chain" to take over the space's 10 year lease recently fell through.
And with the iconic ice cream parlor back on the market, Desmond says that in the meantime he'll do whatever he can to put it back on the path to success – Including having the soda shop moonlight as a romantic rendezvous.
"I want to make it work. I always wanted to make it work. So while I'm here, I'm going to continue to try to make it work," said Desmond.
Expected to begin sometime in the next week, Hinsch's will remain open "at least two hours" later than normal. The eatery's extended evening version will include candlelit tables, jazz, and a new nighttime menu set to feature hamburgers made with beef from renowned meat purveyor Pat LaFrieda.
Alchohol consumption at the re-birthed bop spot will be BYOB, giving you an excuse to dig out that flask you got for Christmas. Classy!

Snow You Can Count On
Snowmaking is what we do best and we take pride in offering our guests a quality snow surface every day of the season here at Killington Resort.
Facts and Figures
With the K-1 Lodge situated at 2,500 feet above sea level and Killington Peak reaching 4,241 feet, our elevation advantage equals more natural snow and optimal temperatures and conditions to produce our machine-made snow.
- To compliment Mother Nature's average of 250 inches of natural snow each winter, our snowmaking system covers 600 of our skiable acres - that's more acres than some eastern resorts have in total skiable terrain.
- When conditions are at their best, in an hours time, Killington's snowmaking system pumps more than 720,000 gallons of water to 240 snow guns, covering 80 acres with 12 inches of fresh snow.
- Our snowmaking system features 88 miles of pipe, 1,700 snow guns (including more than 500 Low Energy guns), and a virtually endless supply of water to produce machine-made snow.
- Killington's 17 snowcats -- including three winch cats for grooming steeper slopes -- groom more than 40 miles of terrain on a nightly basis so we can offer our guests a consistent top-to-bottom surface every day of the season.
Killington's snowmaking capacity and grooming allow us to apply an enormous amount of resources to any extreme winter weather condition Mother Nature throws at us. What that means for you is a dependable and consistent snow surface every morning, despite what the weather conditions were the previous night.
Our Snow Guarantee
Killington's unique elevation advantage translates to over 250 inches of natural snowfall every season and an optimal environment for machine-made snow. Add our powerful snowmaking system and an armada of groomers and you've got a recipe for great snow surfaces.
But, if you're not satisfied with our conditions, we've got you covered! Just bring your ticket to any Guest Service desk or ticket window and exchange it for a return visit voucher.
- Tickets purchased on site from any window before 12:00 p.m. may be exchanged within one hour of purchase.
- Multi-day, direct-to-lift (including Express Cards) and pre-purchased tickets may be exchanged for a voucher up to 10:00 a.m. on each day they are valid.
- Complimentary tickets, season passes and Blackout Season Pass floater days are not eligible.
- During early and late season, when ticket rates are reduced, the snow guarantee voucher will be a dollar value lift ticket credit based on the one-day lift ticket price.
- Vouchers are valid any day for one calendar year; they are non-transferable, non-refundable, carry no cash value and cannot be extended beyond the original expiration date.

A man walked into a Citizens Bank this afternoon with a soda bottle full of liquid, told tellers it was gas and threatened to light it on fire, Harrisburg police said.
They say he entered the bank, on the first block of South Second Street, at 12:50 this afternoon and passed a note to the teller demanding money.
"He threatened to light the gas and burn the clerks," police say. "He pulled a lighter from his pocket
and seemed agitated."
The teller gave the man a small amount of money. The robber left and no one was harmed.
Police say the perpetrator is about five feet ten inches tall and is missing a left front tooth. He appears to be in his 40s and was wearing a dark hooded jacket with a logo on the front and a white baseball cap. Police say he smelled like body odor.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call Detective Schriver at 717-255-3183 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Gloucester Daily Times
---- — To the editor:
Much has been written in the last week about the flag that was flown in June and over the July 4 holiday at Grant Circle on the same flagpole as the American flag.
In my opinion, the American flag is very sacred. Many men and women have sacrificed their lives or suffered life changing injuries over many generations defending our flag.
POWs and MIAs have also payed the ultimate price for this country. For that reason, their flags have earned the right to fly along with the American flag.
If our city wants to fly a flag that has a special meaning, I say do it proudly!
But, please, fly it on a separate flagpole. The U.S. flag deserves to fly alone on its own flagpole.
Webster Street, Gloucester

Colne man's prison threat for possessing knife and air rifles
11:27am Thursday 11th September 2008 in Colne and Nelson RUFC By Wendy Barlow, Court reporter
A FATHER-of-three found with a knife and an air weapon in a public place has been given a suspended jail term.
Andrew Barry Simpson, 36, had been arrested after two men were spotted using air rifles on a field at Nelson and Colne Rugby Club.
The pair were walking away with the guns, which were in bags and not loaded.
Simpson, subject to a suspended jail term, had a lock-knife on him when he was searched, Burnley magistrates had earlier been told.
The defendant, of Keighley Avenue, Colne, admitted possessing a knife blade and an air rifle in a public place.
He got an eight week prison sentence, suspended for six months, with a three month curfew.
He must also pay £60 costs.

Joe Bonamassa Radio
Guitar mastermind Joe Bonamassa, a young player with the childhood dream of playing music similar to legends like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, and Jimi Hendrix, was 22 when he inked a deal with Epic. Hailing from Utica, New York, Bonamassa could play the blues before he could drive a car. He first heard Stevie Ray Vaughan at age four and was instantly taken by Vaughan's high-powered playing. At age eight, he opened for B.B. King, and at age 12, he was playing regularly around upstate New York. It was soon thereafter that Bonamassa hooked up with the band Bloodline, which featured other musicians' sons: Waylon Krieger (Robby Krieger's son), Erin Davis (Miles Davis' drummer kid), and Berry Oakley, Jr. (son of the Allman Brothers bassist). Bloodline released a self-titled album, but Bonamassa wanted to move on. In summer 2000 he guested for Roger McGuinn on Jethro Tull's summer tour, later releasing his debut solo album, A New Day Yesterday. Produced by longtime fan Tom Dowd, the album marked a move toward a more organic and rock-sounding direction. He put together a power trio with drummer Kenny Kramme and bassist Eric Czar and hit the road to support the album.
Upon returning from the road, he hooked up with Dowd to record the muscular and sweeping studio disc So, It's Like That and released a document of the tour, A New Day Yesterday Live. The following year, Bonamassa put out Blues Deluxe, featuring nine cover versions of blues classics alongside three originals. The muscular You & Me appeared in 2006, followed by the more acoustic-tinged Sloe Gin in 2007. A year later, Bonamassa released the two-disc live album Live from Nowhere in Particular, followed in 2009 by The Ballad of John Henry. Late in 2009 he released the DVD Live from the Royal Albert Hall with guest spots from Eric Clapton and Paul Jones. In 2010, the guitarist released his first disc for the Premier Artists label, Black Rock, featuring a guest appearance by B.B. King. It was followed by the debut album from Black Country Communion, a blues-rock supergroup that put him in the company of bassist/vocalist Glenn Hughes, drummer Jason Bonham, and keyboardist Derek Sherinian. Bonamassa, ever the overachiever, released his earthy Dust Bowl in March of 2011, followed by Black Country Communion's 2 in June and by his unique collaboration with vocalist Beth Hart on a searing collection of soul covers entitled Don't Explain in September.
In May of 2012, Bonamassa released Driving Towards the Daylight. The album reunited the guitarist with producer Kevin Shirley, who brought in Aerosmith's Brad Whitford to play rhythm guitar on the 11 tracks. Driving Towards the Daylight was a significant blues hit -- it topped the Billboard blues charts and debuted at number two on the overall British charts -- and Bonamassa didn't slow down. Early in 2013, he released a live CD/DVD set called An Acoustic Evening at the Vienna Opera House and prepared SeeSaw, a studio album of classic covers with vocalist Beth Hart. SeeSaw was released later in 2013, and Bonamassa and Hart followed it up with Live in Amsterdam in March of 2014. ~ MacKenzie Wilson & Al Campbell

Fasano Punta del Este, La Barra, Uruguay
Brazilian hotelier Rogerio Fasano took a gamble when he built Fasano Punta del Este 12 miles inland from Uruguay's popular beaches. When guests enter the gates to the 1,200-acre property, they see cattle and horses grazing on expanses of pastureland. For the reception area, modernist architect Isay Weinfeld reinterpreted a Uruguayan chacra (ranch). Scattered throughout the property are 32 concrete bunker-style bungalows. The gaucho-meets-Mad Men interiors are furnished with vintage leather chairs and sheepskin area rugs. At day's end, the infinity pool at the spa is the best place to take in the otherworldly sunsets. Doubles from $600. 598/(0) 4-267-0000. This appeared in the October 2013 issue. Photo courtesy of Fasano Punta del Este

Nieves Alvarez hosted the 'Naty Abascal' book presentation at the Hotel Villa Magna in Madrid, Spain yesterday evening.
The model wore a Gucci Fall 2013 look consisting of an olive top and black jacket with net trousers featuring embellishments and feather appliqués, immediately drawing your attention.
We have seen so many of the embellished, feather-festooned finale gowns from this collection that I almost forgot that there was a trousered piece in the mix.
Nieves looks impeccable as always, but my curiosity has me wondering how this outfit would look without the jacket. Does the top half of the trousers feature solid black pants or are they embellished all the way through?
Giving her Manolos a break, Nieves styled her look with black Gucci sandals, a Jimmy Choo clutch and Carrera y Carrera jewels.

|What to do, what to do
|Friday, July 19, 2013 11:56 PM
So it's that time again. As you read this, I will be taking my hubby to the airport for his annual trip to our niece's national dance championships in Ocean City, Md.
With a week without my hubby and best friend stretching before me, I ask myself, "What to do, what to do?"
I have plans for Saturday and I'm going to make sure I get a couple meals from the Immaculate Conception Parish Festival on Sunday. Those meals are sooooo good and well worth the price and trip to get them. I'm getting two because I was really upset with myself last year for only getting one. I would have enjoyed having another on Monday or Tuesday. And of course, that would mean no cooking.
And so the rest of the week lays before me.
Little Ringo will fill a lot of time. He will mope around, glancing at the bedroom chair where his master usually sits while watching TV or playing his game on his phone.
Ringo will come up to me and put his little furry head in my lap and give those oh-so-sad puppy dog eyes, imploring me to produce his best friend so they can play. I'll have to make sure I keep him occupied when I'm home. A restless doggie is sometimes an ornery doggie.
My husband and Ringo had a final bonding moment Friday morning at the Delphos-Gillmor Reservoir. They were there before 6 a.m. and watched the sunrise together. That dog can walk his paws off. He loves to walk and sniff and wander and chase a scent.
Now it's just the two of us.
I'll take a picture of our little guy each day and send it to my husband and I'm sure they'll "talk" each evening when he calls. But we all know it won't be the same.
Jay will reprise his role as "Prop Uncle," making sure everything for Lotus' dance team is ready to go on stage and then haul it out there when the time comes.
He really enjoys interacting with her, his sister and brother-in-law and all the dance company parents.
He has some opportunity for downtime and uses it to eat the most amazing French fries ever (his words) and to walk the boardwalk. He'll picked up a few souvenirs and take in the ambiance of the boardwalk — live music and performers and just a ton of people. He said you have to practically walk sideways to get through the crowd.
His big day will be Friday. That's when all the teams and duos and solos that made it through the week will compete for the top spots. Hopefully, the company sponsoring the championships will have a good stream so I can watch online as well. My heart swells with pride when I see on that stage. To me, she is a winner all the time.
I held her when she was just a baby and talked to her on phone and got pictures of her every few months. She likes to fish and swim and of course, dance. But to her, it's just something she does and does really well. She takes the trophies and fuss in stride the same as she does classes and her grueling schedule.
We now have a collection of her trophies, medals and such. To some it may seem a little strange to walk into a our computer room and see the "Lotus" corner. We're not stalkers, we are just so proud of her.
So now I just have to fill the middle part of my week.
What to do, what to do.

Bears DE Julius Peppers became one of the league's highest-paid players in the offseason when he reportedly signed a six-year deal worth up to $91.5 million with $42 million guaranteed. Each week we will take a close look at his performance to see if he played up to the high standard that comes with such a lucrative deal.
The Bears did sack Tom Brady three times on Sunday, but Brady had plenty of time to throw for much of the day. It was clear that Peppers and other pass rushers were struggling to get traction on the snow-covered turf, which has to be a concern for the Bears considering at least two of their last three games, and perhaps all three if they play the Vikings at the University of Minnesota's outdoor stadium next week, could be played in similar conditions.
Chicago's cover-2 defense is predicated on the front four getting pressure and forcing quarterbacks to get rid of the ball quickly. If the conditions make it difficult for Peppers to avoid slipping and sliding and he has to step softly to avoid losing his balance, the Bears' "D" is probably going to struggle against good offenses.
Peppers had a fine day statistically — six tackles, one sack for a loss of eight yards, two tackles for loss and two pass breakups — but the Bears gave up 33 points before halftime. He may have earned his money, but it didn't make much of a difference in the loss to New England.
