By Tayleigh Davis - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) - The first substantial snowstorm to hit south Georgia in years is on the way. That means many students will get a rare snow day tomorrow.
Albany could receive a couple of inches of snow. Some other areas in south Georgia might get even more. The Albany public works department is ready to hit the roads to keep them clear.
Roughly eight tons of sand sit in a public works truck. Director Phil Roberson says his crews are ready to spread it on the roads Friday if snow accumulates in Dougherty County.
"Friday night into Sunday morning we'll see icy conditions," Roberson said. "The bridge on Jefferson street will tend to freeze over. We'll take trucks out and sand bridges."
They tend to freeze more than asphalt because bridges are exposed to elements underneath.
Roberson says crews can spread two truck loads of sand on needed roads through out the county in about an hour. The sand adds traction to the snow.
Albany EMA Director Chief James Carswell says the snow is expected to start by 7:00 in the morning, become heavier in the afternoon, with the possibility of ice at night.
"Going into tomorrow night with temperatures dropping in the 20s it's more hazardous because of the ice," Chief Carswell said.
The combination of snow and ice is a reason for drivers to take caution.
"If you are taking a curve you may lose control and people will be looking at the snow but it's important to remember there will be treacherous conditions," Roberson added.
The treacherous conditions won't amount to the snowmaggedon our neighbors up the east coast are experiencing.
Emergency officials say if you're driving tomorrow and hit some ice, remember to steer in the direction you were trying to go. Don't over correct and most of all don't let go of the wheel.
The Department of Transportation has 300 workers on call and eight snowplows plus dump trucks and graders at the ready to clear area interstates and state highways.

Reality TV stars and power couple Bill and Giuliana Rancic are also proud parents of a seven-month old boy.
When they're not doting on Duke, they're gearing up to debut a new TV show next month.
GDNY spoke with the pair about 'Ready for Love.'
The show premieres April at 9 p.m. on NBC.

Aside from the fact that she won 1.1 million dollars as the winner of "Survivor-One World" on CBS, San Antonio's Kim Spradlin also found the secret of winning in life. That secret? Relationships. The twelve year, 24-season reality show, one of the most successful in television history, "Survivor" has presented us with some of T.V.'s most hated villains. But, it also has shown us what it takes to win. Miss Spradlin said, "I made it a point to get to know all the competitors."
This lady got it right. With those piercing blue eyes, she made it a point to find out all she could about those with whom she played the game. While they were speaking, she was listening. When they finished speaking, she spoke, and she convinced each person that she really heard what they said and cared about them. She made them believe that she really did think it was important for them to know that she understood. That's exactly what relationships are all about. Most of us are so busy trying to talk, to get our message over, that we don't take time to listen to what is important for the other people with whom we share this planet. Kim understood the first rule of relationships—try to understand the other person before trying to make yourself understood.
If I could give some advice to any pastor-friend it would be this: listen first. Then speak. And when you speak, at least try to make it appear that you heard and understood what the other person said. Success in church life is about making people believe you understand their issues and problems. You don't even have to solve those problems—just understand them. It is amazing how far that will take you on the road to success. That is how you relate to people. By understanding them.
It goes without saying that most people in the church have the same aspirations for eternity. Most people in the church believe there is an eternal life and it is called heaven by most of us. So, by using that belief as our common ground, we can concentrate more on what this world is about than what the next one is about. Since we are not worried about the next world, our concern should be about this one. How can we navigate the potholes of this world, while we make our way to the smooth streets of the world to come?
Most of us will one day come to understand that success is more about what we can do to help people navigate their way through the present life. Understanding what each of these folks face every day forms the basis of our relationships with them, and the more we can learn about the difficulties each person faces here, the deeper our relationships with them will be. And the more relationships we can form here, the more successful we will be.
You may not win the million dollars, but your life will be like that of a millionaire, with a myriad of rich relationships along your path to the eternal life you seek.

Rood-witten (Red-whites)
|Philips Stadion
|Dick Advocaat
PSV is one of the best teams in Netherlands. They have a very young team and with players like Dries Mertens, Georginio Wijnaldum, Kevin Strootman, Ola Toivonen, Luciano Narsingh and Tim Matavz they have a great team for the future. They also have Mark van Bommel as their captain. Their biggest rivals are Ajax and Feyenoord. PSV won the UEFA Cup in 1978 and the Champions League in 1988. In 2005 they almost reach the Champions League final after AC Milan beat PSV Eindhoven on the away goals rule to reach the European Cup final.
[edit] Legends
Some world class players have been played by PSV. The Brazilians Ronaldo and Romario, the Dutch players Ruud van Nistelrooy, Arjen Robben and Ronald Koeman and more of them have taken this way to the European top teams.
[edit] Rivals
The rivals of PSV are Ajax and Feyenoord. PSV is a sort of nightmare for Ajax because PSV won the most of the games at the last 20 years. This are the games of the year. In the last 15 years Ajax won only once at the Philips Stadium in Eindhoven. Against Feyenoord, PSV has the usually more difficult than against Ajax.
[edit] PES
They appeared as an unlicensed team named Eindhoven.
[edit] PES 2
They appeared as an unlicensed team named Flandre.
[edit] PES 3
They appeared as an unlicensed team named Stadhuisplein.
[edit] PES 4
They made their first appearance as a licensed team in PES 4 and have been licensed in each subsequent edition of the game.
[edit] Players
The best players of PSV Eindhoven are Belgium international Dries Mertens, Dutch internationals Kevin Strootman, Mark van Bommel, Luciano Narsingh and Georginio Wijnaldum, Swedish international Ola Toivonen and striker Tim Matavz. After 3 Master League seasons Strootman and Wijnaldum are over the 90 by overall.

---- — Essex County supervisors are feeling the heat over their 2013 budget, and we encourage them to burn off some spending in response.
County officials have been struggling to reduce the $108 million budget, which currently carries a 26.8 percent tax-levy increase. That is unacceptable to county residents, and a few of them showed up at a budget hearing to tell supervisors that in person.
As they have for years, county officials are blaming state mandates for most of the budget growth. They have said from the start that it would be impossible to come in under the state-mandated tax cap, which is 2.6 percent, in their case.
What is hurting their argument, though, is the fact that two neighboring counties — Clinton and Franklin — have both put together budgets lower than their allowed tax cap, despite facing those same mandates.
Clinton County's spending plan totals $155.9 million, which is about $1.8 million less than the 2012 version. The tax levy is up 1.9 percent.
Franklin County's proposed budget stands at $99,740,402, down 11.4 percent from this year. The tax levy is up 1.91 percent.
It should be noted that Essex County currently has an enviable proposed 2013 tax rate of $3.10 per $1,000 of assessed value, well below Clinton's composite rate of around $6.11 and Franklin's $4.29. Essex's current rate of $2.42 per thousand has to be among the lowest in the state, appropriate for a county pegged as one of the poorest.
Still, it didn't help that Essex County started off — when budget discussions had barely begun — sure that it would exceed the tax cap. County Manager Daniel Palmer saw no chance of meeting the state limit. That approach doesn't sit well with taxpayers, who want to think county officials are dedicated to meeting the cap, not resigned to exceeding it.
Essex County certainly does have a challenge: $1.7 million in mandated increases and only $383,000 more in spending allowed under the tax cap, according to Westport Supervisor Daniel Connell.
The supervisors are already selling the bleeding Horace Nye Nursing Home operation, for which they came under intense criticism. They are shying away from layoffs; salary cuts are likely restricted by union contracts; and service cuts are never easy.
Palmer has a three-year plan to balance the budget, but that would require tax hikes of 26 percent the first year, then 16 and 3 percent. No citizens are jumping for joy over that.
Still, some supervisors want deeper cuts. Budget talks continue at 10 a.m. today, and the budget hearing resumes at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 10.
Taxpayers should continue to share their feelings about what they want eliminated. And supervisors need to make more cuts to take a big bite out of that nearly 27 percent tax increase.

Moo-ving people toward compassionate living
Wishful ThinkingWhen we think of cattle, or cows, or calves, we picture a calf like Norman, above...
...or Hugo eating some hay...
...or Opie relaxing in a snow-covered pasture...
...or these cattle enjoying the pastureland at Farm Sanctuary
(Cattle - Festival and Sacrificial Slaughter - 15) We can only imagine what is going through the mind of this still living baby as he or she looks intently upon bloodied neck and headless body of once living and breathing fellow baby. Stop the killing and bloodshed of billions of animals every year. Go vegan!

gnumbskull says: I remember this game being controversial when I was a kid. Never got to check it out. That's why i want to give it a try.
gnumbskull says: Read reviews and they all sound good for the most part. Love RPG's and this is supposed to be a classic.
gnumbskull says: I own Baldurs gate 1 and 2. Reviews say its like Baldurs gate "light"
gnumbskull says: I want to try this for the same reason I wanna try Icewind Dale 2 Complete.
gnumbskull says: This game looks awesome and reviews are stellar. nuff said.
gnumbskull says: I have heard good things and bad things about this game. I am curious to see if I would like it.
gnumbskull says: Reviews for this game are all 5's. Some even say its better than Baldur's Gate. WOW! Must try this.
gnumbskull says: This looks corny and fun. Who doesnt like to laugh at rednecks? I know I do.
gnumbskull says: Cant wait for this game because I am hopeful it will have oodles of items and a enormous game world, but thats just a guess. I dont know for sure.
gnumbskull says: Heard good things about this one. SyFy Civilization....yes please!
gnumbskull says: This is supposed to be another classic series and I have read reviews that say this is the best of the four games.
gnumbskull says: Gotta love the Worms. I own every Worms game that Steam carries and enjoy most all of them. Never played this one. So........
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

Apply a thin even coat of decoupage medium to the front of a purchased wooden door hanger. Place the door hanger adhesive side down on the back side of a piece of pattern paper. Press the hanger down to help press out any air. Allow the adhesive to dry. Trim around the edge of the door hanger with a craft knife.
If desired, apply ink to the edges of the door hanger.
Use the Fuse Creativity Systemª to create the clock face embellishment.Cut a strip of cardstock slightly wider than the die cut about 1/2" tall. Cut two V shaped notches in each end.
Stamp the word "nap" on the banner with small letter stamps.
Place some adhesive foam on the back of the banner in the center. Apply adhesive tape to the two ends.
Adhere the banner to the front of the clock die cut. The center of the banner will be raised slightly from the foam while the two ends will be flat on the diecut. Make a small cut in the banner on the two ends over the tape. Insert a brad through each cut.
Adhere the assembled diecut piece to the door hanger.
Stamp the word "time" with alphabet stamps on coordinating cardstock.

Pascucci joins Lester fairsby Jan Sjostrom
Marisa Pascucci, the Norton Museum's former American art curator, has gone to work for fair organizers David and Lee Ann Lester.
Pascucci, who was one of 11 staff members the museum laid off recently, will focus on museum groups, the vetting committee and the lecture series and also help out with exhibitor selection and layout.
She will deal mainly Art Palm Beach and the American International Fine Art Fair, both held at the Palm Beach County Convention Center. She'll also keep a hand in independent curating, she said.
The fair job "keeps me in the art world, and in West Palm Beach, both things I was striving for," Pascucci said.

30th Avenue North Bicycle Facility Project
The City of St. Petersburg has recently completed renderings of the proposed plans for the second phase of the Historic Booker Creek Trail from Dr. ML King, Jr. Street to 3rd Street South. On Tuesday, April 8, 2014, a neighborhood-wide open house was held to review the renderings, preliminary plans, hear answers to previously-submitted questions, and solicit input from the community. Below you'll find a copy of the presentation and illustrations shown at the meeting for this exciting project! If you'd like to provide a comment on the project, please use the comment form below (include hyperlink here to either the Word or pdf version) and kindly submit to Cheryl Stacks, Bicycle Pedestrian Coordinator,email@example.com, 1744 9th Avenue North, St. Petersburg, FL 33713 by Friday, April 25, 2014.

The online bike map is a complement to the 2009 printed version and includes additional information, such as TrailBites locations, public restrooms, and retail bike shop locations.
St. Petersburg's TrailBites allows trail users to find eating establishments located within mile of a CityTrails recreational trail, including the Pinellas Trail.

2009 CityTrails Master Plan Update
Click here to read the Fall 2009 report of the award-winning CityTrails Master Plan progress and achievements.
A Pedestrian and Bicycle Friendly City
Thousands of city residents and visitors have already discovered the joy of riding bicycles and walking in our community. The climate, beautiful park system, many retail and employment destinations and our wonderful neighborhoods contribute to the opportunities to bike or walk for health, recreation or work. We would like to expand these opportunities and identify ways to make them safer. The city has always had this vision. It was further confirmed during the city's Vision 2020 strategy sessions when so many people identified these features as important.
The Bicycle Pedestrian Master Plan will provide a framework to be used to achieve the goals for future bicycle and pedestrian enhancements for many years to come. I encourage you and your neighborhood to be involved. This is an opportunity to participate in a plan that will affect all of us.
Let 's make St. Petersburg the most "pedestrian and bicycle friendly" city in the country.
What are CityTrails?
St. Petersburg's CityTrails are facilities for non-motorized traffic, primarily bicyclists and pedestrians. They include bicycle lanes, bicycle routes, recreational trails, sidewalks, crosswalks, and other devices that assist people in getting around St. Petersburg without a motor vehicle.

Miguel de Icaza Announces Xamarin Company
"We have been trying to spin Mono off from Novell for more than a year now," de Icaza writes. "Everyone agreed that Mono would have a brighter future as an independent company, so a plan was prepared last year."
He says that the new company will focus on a new commercial .NET offering for iOS and Android; it will contribute, maintain and develop the open source Mono and Moonlight components; and it will explore the Moonlight opportunities in the mobile space and the Mac appstore.
"The new versions of .NET for the iPhone and Android will be source compatible with MonoTouch and Mono for Android. Like those versions, they will be commercial products, built on top of the open core Mono," he writes. To help with the new company's projects, provide feedback by completing an online platforms and features survey.

Jabba the Hutt
Jabba the Hutt was one of the galaxy's most powerful gangsters, with far-reaching influence in both politics and the criminal underworld. There were no second chances with Jabba, something Han Solo would find out -- though the slug-like alien would ultimately fall victim to his own hubris and vengeful ways.
Padmé Amidala
Padmé Amidala was a courageous, hopeful leader, serving as Queen and then Senator of Naboo -- and was also handy with a blaster. Despite her ideals and all she did for the cause of peace, her secret, forbidden marriage to Jedi Anakin Skywalker would prove to have dire consequences for the galaxy.
Count Dooku
Count Dooku was a menacing Sith Lord and central figure in the Clone Wars. Once a Jedi -- trained by Yoda -- he became disillusioned with the Jedi Order and thirsted for greater power. Dooku voluntarily left the light side behind and became Darth Sidious' dark side disciple, taking the secret name Darth Tyranus and leading the Separatist army.
Sy Snootles
Sy Snootles, a long-limbed Pa'lowick, was a popular singer and dancer whose patrons included Jabba the Hutt. Very few realized that she also worked as a spy for the Hutt criminal cartels, and that she betrayed her love, Ziro the Hutt, in exchange for a big payday.
Cad Bane
A ruthless bounty hunter from the planet Duro, Cad Bane was the preeminent blaster-for-hire in the galaxy at the time of the Clone Wars. No quarry was too dangerous for Bane... if the price was right. Using an impressive arsenal of weapons and allies, the cold, cruel and calculating Bane would literally track his prey to the ends of the galaxy if required. Bane carried custom twin blaster pistols, gauntlets studded with control devices, a concealed bola, explosives, integrated breathing apparatus and rocket boots, ensuring that he was always well prepared for any situation that may arise.
Nal Hutta
A ringed, marshy bog planet controlled by the Hutts, Nal Hutta has long been a haven for criminal activity, far from the prying eyes of galactic authorities. Its hot atmosphere is frequently streaked by greasy rain, creating a fetid sauna in which Hutts are most comfortable. Hutt cities are built on what little firm land there is, including the sprawling spaceport market of Bilbousa. A number of floating homes also dot the bayous -- visitors traverse the bogs on repulsorlift fanboats, risking the attention of dragonsnakes and other dangerous creatures.

The NFL will not impose any fines on Ravens FB Le'Ron McClain after Dolphins LB Channing Crowder accused McClain of spitting in Crowder's face.
Crowder's postgame outburst brought a lot of publicity to the incident. In the third quarter of Sunday's game, the two had a confrontation and Crowder claimed McClain spit in his face. Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano, after seeing tape that seemed to confirm the spitting took place, asked the league to investigate.
Merton Hanks, the NFL director of football operations, found no evidence to support disciplining McClain. The fullback said if he spit, it was accidental.

A farmers' market in downtown Woodside?

I'm wondering what the Owners of Robert's think about this ;)
on Feb 6, 2013 at 10:54 am
Your article calls Skylonda "downtown Woodside." Is that really so?
I always thought of the village with Roberts market, the hardware store + restaurants and other businesses, the school, the church etc. as 'downtown Woodside."
Let me know if this is wrong.
on Feb 6, 2013 at 11:11 am
Dave Boyce is a registered user.
The word "residents" refers to all Woodside residents, not excluding residents of Skylonda.
on Feb 6, 2013 at 1:48 pm
(sigh) Comprehension test time. Read the paragraph again:
Skylonda residents and the Woodside Town Council welcomed a farmers' market on Wednesday afternoons at Skyline Boulevard and La Honda Road in Woodside. Would the council, residents and downtown merchants welcome another one, perhaps in the public parking lot outside of Town Hall on Saturday afternoons?
They call Downtown Woodside the area around Town Hall.
on Feb 6, 2013 at 2:19 pm
I "raed" (maybe you meant "read") both of the comments after my innocent question about the article HEADLINE "A Farmer's Market in Downtown Woodside."
No need to "sigh."
After reading the article I saw that the location was not what I usually consider being downtown Woodside. Mine was an honest question, not a stupid question, about a carelessly written headline. The editors simply wrote a misleading lead for the story.
Surprised about the very snarky response.
on Feb 8, 2013 at 1:19 pm
I think a Farmers Market in downtown proper Woodside is a great idea!
The elementary school parking lot maybe? Or Town Hall are both ideal locations. This idea is nice because there are plenty of people in Woodside who grow amazing things and I for one would love to see them all. Growing up near the school and living up on the mountain most of my married life has given me the opportunity to realize that there are farmers everywhere who have wonderful fruits and vegetables as well as flowers, honey, crafts and the list goes on and on to share with all of us. And although I love the drive up the mountain, it is not for everyone. So yes, lets do it. Our town needs more excuses for all of us to get together and appreciate each other in more ways than wealth. I would even bet the happy, positive activity would put a smile on Raeds face as well as others that need smiles around them.

The shortlisted authors and eventual winners reflect the expert judgment and insight of the seven-member selection committee of library professionals who work closely with adult readers. These are the ALA's first single-book awards for adult trade fiction and nonfiction.
The Andrew Carnegie Medals are funded through a grant from Carnegie Corporation of New York and established on the occasion of the centennial celebration of the founding of Carnegie Corporation of New York. They recognize Andrew Carnegie's deep belief in the power of books and learning to change the world.
Finalists: A shortlist of finalists is announced each May from 50 titles drawn from the previous year's Booklist Choice and RUSA CODES Notable Books lists. The winners (one for fiction, one for nonfiction) are announced at an event at ALA Annual Conference; winning authors receive a $5,000 cash award, and two finalists in each category receive $1,500.
Selection Committee: The annually appointed selection committee includes a chair, three Booklist editors or contributors, and three former members of RUSA Notable Books Council.

The first inning saw the Rangers get out to an early 1-0 lead over the Cardinals. The second inning gave the Cardinals a chance to respond, and they tried but couldn't, thanks to a few things.
Four batters batted in the inning, and all four at bats featured interesting conclusions. The first at bat was by Matt Holliday, and he was called out on a very questionable strike:
The second at bat was by Lance Berkman, and he drilled a ringing double to right-center field.
The third at bat was by David Freese, and he was called out on a very questionable strike:
And the fourth at bat was by Yadier Molina, who ripped a sharp ground ball back up the middle. Off the bat, one's assumption was that the ball would get through and Berkman would score, but Ian Kinsler ranged way over to his right to not only keep the ball in the infield, but to throw Molina out. Kinsler didn't make a clean or strong through, but Molina's last name is Molina, so Kinsler didn't have to be perfect.
1-0 Texas, three half-innings in. Holland's at 32 pitches, and at least in the early going, he's got a favorable zone.

Understandably shaken and definitely very sore, Carol Galati says she was more mad than she was scared when two men broke into her east-side home Tuesday night.
"I got about right under the light and they walked through the door," she says. "They had a gun pointed at me."
Accompanied only by her dog and her three birds, the 67-year-old widow was face to face with two home invaders, who knew exactly what they were looking for.
"They said, 'Open the 'expletive' safe,'" Galati said, shaking her head.
Little did they know, the safe contained only paperwork and some old costume jewelry.
In fact, Galati hardly ever used the old gun safe, ever since her husband died more than five years ago.
That's why it was almost impossible for her to open when the thugs told her to do just that.
"They got very mad when I couldn't get it open, so I turned around and I said to them, 'You think you're so smart mother %$%$ers, you open it, here's the combination.'"
Frustrated, one of the guys hit Galati in the face and pulled the necklaces from around her neck.
That's when they left and got into the old, but dependable Pontiac parked outside.
"I have a 2000 Pontiac I got in 2001 and the gas gauge has been broke since I got it."
That broken gauge made all the difference because once inside, the thieves thought they were out of gas.
By this point, Galati had already called 911 telling the operator what the thieves were driving.
Within minutes, police were on scene.
The rest, you could say, is poetic history.
"So these smart asses stopped at the corner up here at Golf Links and Pantano. So my car caught em...with the help of the police," she said.
We're still awaiting specifics concerning the arrests in this case, though we're told as many as three suspects were detained in connection with the home invasion.
The case remains under investigation.

Here's a recap of the second half and overtime of Jets-Browns from a Cleveland perspective.
Final score: Jets 26, Browns 20 (OT)
Positives: Browns QB Colt McCoy engineered a 10-play, 59-yard drive ending with a three-yard TD pass to WR Mohamed Massaquoi to tie the game at 20 with 44 seconds left in regulation. ... While the defense was on the field for 22:59 of the second half, the Browns allowed just three points. ... TEs Benjamin Watson and Evan Moore combined for four catches and 55 yards on Cleveland's game-tying scoring drive late in the fourth quarter.
Negatives: Backed up on their three-yard line with 1:35 left in OT, the Browns could not get a first down, and a Reggie Hodges punt netted 35 yards and left the Jets 24 seconds with which to work and with the ball on the Cleveland 37. The Jets made the most of the opportunity, with QB Mark Sanchez hitting WR Santonio Holmes on a slant pattern that Holmes took all the way for a TD. Holmes beat CB Eric Wright, who failed, along with LB Eric Barton and S T.J. Ward, to make the tackle. ... WR Chansi Stuckey fumbled with a little more than 10 minutes left in OT and the Browns just about in field-goal range. ... In addition to the defense struggling to get off the field throughout the second half and OT, the offense underwhelmed, gaining just 107 yards on 32 plays in the final 44:44 of action.
Outlook: The Browns had their chances to win their third in a row; instead, they lost in draining fashion. They must refocus quickly in Week 11 at Jacksonville, which improved to 5-4 with a 31-24 win vs. Houston on a 50-yard "Hail Mary" from QB David Garrard to WR Mike Thomas on a deflected pass on the final play of regulation.

(FOX 11 / CNS) Search and rescue teams today found the four mountain bikers who had been missing in the Angeles National Forest since going for a ride on Mount Wilson Sunday, police said.
"They were found in Bear Canyon this morning and they are all OK,'' said Sgt. Burton Brink of the Crescenta Valley Sheriff's Station. "I was told they made a wrong turn and got lost.''
The four men, cousins between the ages of 28 and 38, began their ride on Mount Wilson at 10 a.m. Sunday and planned to return to their cars at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory Windsor turnout by 3 p.m., said Sgt. David Shoemaker of the Crescenta Valley Sheriff's Station.
"They didn't show and their family found their cars. They had no contact. No phones. And they weren't dressed for a cold night outdoors,'' Shoemaker said.
As many as 24 searchers were out all night looking for the bikers. The temperatures in the area dropped to the mid-to-high 40s overnight, which would be uncomfortable but not too bad, Shoemaker said.

Derp. Jimbo Fisher duff'd this one. Standoffish, egotistical, defiant. Immature. It's hard to imagine the presser going worse.
Fans complain about playcalling entirely too much. They don't understand the nebulous concept and are usually wrong. Fisher didn't call a bad game against N.C. State (the issue was execution). But the way about which he expressed that sentiment just doesn't work.
"No. No, I go back and if we execute, no," Fisher said in response to being asked after reviewing the film if there was anything he'd have done differently.
He may be speaking honestly and accurately. And after reviewing the film, he may sincerely believe that the plays were there to be made, but that a lack of execution sunk Florida State.
But when his offense scored zero points in the second half of a loss to a team over which the Seminoles were favored by 16 points, that was not the right way to handle the situation.
It comes off as way too egotistical.
It comes off as passing the buck to the players over which, as the offensive coordinator, he is ultimately responsible.
And it comes off as out of touch with his constituency. Reasonable Florida State fans aren't asking for Fisher's firing. But they are absolutely (and justifiably) angry over his fourth loss as a double-digit favorite.
Either Fisher doesn't have someone he trusts who could have told him how to handle (or not to handle) the presser, or he didn't bother to ask them.
The right way to handle this situation was to accept the blame, address some concerns, give a few specifics and generalities of how they would be fixed, and get out of there.
As the head of the organization, that is his job.
If the issue was really much more execution than play calling, Fisher should have spent more time talking about how he can fix execution and focus issues that have plagued the team during his time in Tallahassee.
That didn't happen.
Instead, Fisher rhetorically asked how many undefeated seasons Florida State has [one]? "What are the odds you're going to lose one,?" he wondered aloud.
Simply a terrible way to handle the press conference and placate the fans.
Plus, the rhetorical conveniently ignores the fact that in 1979, 1987, 1988, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1997, 2000, the losses came to an end of Year top 10 team and/or national champ. In other words, those celebrated seasons rarely involved losing to a 16-point underdog.
There's plenty more from Fisher here today, and you'll probably be even more appalled if you choose to click it.
The bottom line right now is that Fisher, a first time head coach, has not grown and improved enough both on and off the field required to keep Florida State in the national title conversation and to keep fans happy.
At the very least, Fisher needs to review press conference and damage control strategy so that if (when?) this happens again, he'll not draw more ire from the base for his handling of the press conference than for the loss itself.

Rams sign free-agent FS Atogwe
The Rams' prolonged contract impasse with starting FS O.J. Atogwe came to an abrupt halt early Wednesday afternoon when the team announced it had agreed to a multiyear deal with its most accomplished defensive playmaker.
Rams make changes in personnel department
The Rams announced a number of changes in their personnel department Thursday, including the promotions of Mike Williams to vice president of player personnel and John Mancini to director of college scouting.
Torn triceps could end Setterstrom's season
Rams OG Mark Setterstrom suffered a torn triceps muscle during practice at the team's minicamp Friday, head coach Steve Spagnuolo revealed Saturday. The injury comes shortly after OLT Jason Smith was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his left ...
Atogwe could remain with Rams after all
The likelihood that FS O.J. Atogwe might stick with the Rams has increased, although it remains quite possible a serious suitor could suddenly materialize in the coming days.
Report: Rams sign veteran DT Hovan
Multiple media outlets are reporting that the Rams have beefed up their defensive line with the signing of 10th-year DT Chris Hovan, who was released by the Buccaneers in April.
Rams to retire Bruce's No. 80
The Rams officially announced Wednesday that they will retire No. 80, the number worn by WR Isaac Bruce, during the team's Oct. 31 home game against the Panthers.
Bruce to retire a Ram after trade
Isaac Bruce, who spent the majority of his career in St. Louis, will retire as a Ram after being obtained in a trade with the Niners Monday afternoon.
Atogwe becomes unrestricted free agent
FS O.J. Atogwe became an unrestricted free agent at midnight ET Tuesday after he and the Rams were unable to agree on a long-term contract and the team failed to extend a new qualifying offer, according to multiple sources.
Report: Rams trying to re-sign Atogwe before deadline
The Rams are working to reach agreement with FS O.J. Atogwe on a long-term contract, with his restricted free-agent tender set to expire Tuesday, a source with knowledge of the situation has told NFL.com.
Carpenter offers athletic tools to Rams
We hear it's very likely recently acquired OLB Bobby Carpenter will assume the Rams' starting WLB job right away, despite starting only three games in four seasons with the Cowboys.
Cowboys, Rams make Barron-for-Carpenter deal official
The Rams and Cowboys made official a trade that had been in the works for nearly a week, sending LB Bobby Carpenter to St. Louis and OT Alex Barron to Dallas in a swap of failed former first-round picks.
Cowboys considering Carpenter-for-Barron deal
Jerry Jones had said that the team would explore adding depth at a few positions, including the offensive line, and now the Cowboys are discussing a trade for Rams OT Alex Barron.
Rams' contract talks with Bradford curiously slow
We hear that the Rams' uncertain ownership situation, as well as the labor talks, may be delaying a contract agreement with No. 1 draft pick Sam Bradford, the new undisputed face of the franchise.
Report: Barron-Carpenter trade nearing completion
A trade in which the Rams would send OT Alex Barron to the Cowboys for LB Bobby Carpenter is expected to be finalized Monday, according to NFL Network.
Bears trade S Payne to Rams
With a surplus of safeties after obtaining Chris Harris from the Panthers in a trade Tuesday, the Bears traded S Kevin Payne to the Rams late Wednesday afternoon for an undisclosed pick in the 2011 draft.
Cook's familiarity with coach Jeff Fisher made the free agent tight end a natural fit with the St. Louis Rams.||||||| The 6-foot-5, 248-pound Cook, who got a five-year, $35.1 million contract, played his first two seasons in Tennessee under Fisher.
The St. Louis Rams have upgraded their offense by reaching a five-year deal with Cook.||||||| The team said on its website Tuesday night that the Rams outbid Miami for the 25-year-old Cook, who played for St. Louis coach Jeff Fisher in Tennessee. The Titans drafted Cook in the third round in 2009.
Cook has a torn right rotator cuff and coach Mike Munchak says Cook will be placed on injured reserve for the final three games. Cook caught an 18-yard touchdown pass on the opening drive in Sunday's 27-23 loss to Indianapolis. But he hurt his shoulder catching a screen pass late in the third quarter.||||||| The tight end ranks second with 44 catches and has 523 yards receiving. He will become the 15th player on injured reserve, and Munchak called it unfortunate. Cook says the season-ending injury is a tough blow. He was honored Monday as the Titans' community man of the year for raising money for breast cancer research and exams in honor of his mother, Yulinda, a breast cancer survivor.
For nearly three seasons, the Tennessee Titans have waited for Cook to consistently perform up to his potential. Now Cook has put together the best two games of his career, with 169 yards receiving in the last game to set a new team record for most yards receiving by a tight end.||||||| He's' also just 73 yards shy of Frank Wycheck's franchise record of 769 yards receiving by a tight end going into Sunday's game at Houston.
Cook caught eight passes for a career-high 169 yards - including a 55-yard TD - during Saturday's 23-17 win over Jacksonville.||||||| Cook has now posted back-to-back 100-yard efforts and seems to be developing a good rapport with quarterback Matt Hasselbeck. Cook and the Titans visit Houston in Week 17.

SkillsUSA is fast becoming a much larger blip on the radar screens of our federal government s policy-makers.
For example, when the White House was issuing invitations to hear President Bush s recent speech on high school renewal, guess which national student organization was on the guest list? Members of SkillsUSA s national staff, along with its past national presidents Julia Abramova and Vanessa Sandoval, represented the organization at the event.
First lady Laura Bush and Margaret Spellings, later confirmed as the new U.S. secretary of education, also attended. We re not interested in mediocrity. We re interested in excellence, the president told the audience at a Virginia high school. With the slogan SkillsUSA: Champions at Work , it s clear our organization feels the same way about career and technical education students. "
The SkillsUSA Championships Technical Standards 2005 2007 the book that you need if you plan to compete any time between, say, 2005 and 2007 is now available on CD-ROM. The new disc features video clips, special insider tips for grabbing the gold, Web links to contest information and more.

We re talking about Contest Singles, featuring specifications for prior years national contests, and ASK Singles, with separate chapters from the Advisor s Success Kit (ASK) 2004 CD-ROM. "
National officers Peyton Holland and Blake Jackson joined SkillsUSA staff and former officer Amelia Mitchell on a trip to the Motor City a.k.a. Detroit as part of a goodwill tour to automotive executives during the North American International Auto Show.
They delivered the SkillsUSA message to executives from General Motors, Daimler-Chrysler and ACDelco. Once again, our students did us proud, said SkillsUSA Executive Director Tim Lawrence. General Motors director of dealer service support, Tim Murray, was particularly impressed after reviewing the entire Professional Development Program and offering ideas to expand GM s reach inside SkillsUSA beyond the automotive service technician area and into other occupational programs.
They asked questions that showed how seriously they were listening to us, said Holland, the college/postsecondary vice president. We could see how much they want to be a part of helping students be successful.

ATHENS -- Shaq Wiggins liked to sing. During practice last year it wasnt unusual to walk by Georgias defensive backs, often lazing about during a drill, and hear the dulcet tones of Wiggins, the freshman cornerback, belting out a tune.
Wiggins was also good at football, and when he was inserted into the lineup he provided a spark to a beleaguered secondary. So when the news came late Friday night that he was transferring, it was a jolt, and it was hard to see it as good news.
There were obviously some issues behind the scenes. Wiggins said he would look for a program that embraced my personality, in a statement he released to 247Sports. Maybe Jeremy Pruitt, the new defensive coordinator and secondary coach, didnt embrace the signing. Maybe Pruitt just wasnt as high on Wiggins as the previous staff.
Either way, there is a larger trend: High-profile transfers and a dismissal have now replaced off-field incidents as an issue on head coach Mark Richts team.
Yes, arrests and suspensions have continued, but arrests have been relatively minor -- the lone felony charge the past four years was later dismissed -- while the suspensions are largely self-inflicted. Georgias drug policy, and its harsher discipline for failed marijuana tests, are chiefly to blame.
The amount of quality players leaving the program, however, is not easy to dismiss.
Wiggins joins Josh Harvey-Clemons out the door this offseason, as well as promising inside linebacker Paris Bostick, who redshirted as a freshman. The recent history of Georgia players who leave via transfer or dismissal -- often the terms are interchangeable -- makes it easy to predict you havent heard the last of that trio.
Nick Marshall, you know about. Chris Sanders and Sanford Seay, the two players dismissed with Marshall in 2012, will also play at other Division I programs this season. Tight end Ty Flournoy-Smith has signed with Alabama. Offensive lineman Brent Benedict starts for Virginia Tech.
Going back further, three ex-Bulldogs players were drafted Saturday or signed free agent contracts: Quarterback Zach Mettenberger, tailback Isaiah Crowell and cornerback Jordan Love.
Georgias offense has weathered those losses. The defense, not so much, making the offseason departures cause for more concern.
The good news for Georgia is that recruiting keeps chugging along. And, given Pruitts reputation, its very possible that he can make up in the long term for any talent that departs under his watch during the transition.
But at some point, you also need players now.
Look at last season. Imagine a secondary with Marshall, Sanders and Love. The O-line probably couldve used Benedict. Luckily for the rest of the offense, it still had Aaron Murray, Todd Gurley and very good coaches.
Several years ago, Richt had a change when it came to dealing with discipline. Gone was the Bobby Bowden philosophy of rehabilitating players under your watch. The rash of arrests between 2007-10 forced the change.
Ive probably had a little less patience than Ive had in the past, Richt said in July of 2011.
Lets be clear: Many of these dismissals and transfers had to happen. Wiggins situation is a bit cloudier, but with many of the recent situations, Richt and Georgia are to be commended for taking a harsher stance than many of their competitors.
The result has been more transfers and less serious off-field problems, as well as better locker room chemistry. Yes, Georgia is still the butt of jokes from Steve Spurrier and some media types, but those closer to the program know this is a tighter ship now.
The collateral damage, however, cant be ignored. Marshalls transfer might have directly swung the fates last year for Georgia and Auburn. And now a defense that at least could point to returning experience has lost its third-leading tackler and leader in interceptions. Wiggins also produced the teams only defensive or special teams touchdown.
Georgia fans can only hope that recent history repeats itself. Four years ago, after the 6-7 season, there was a massive group of departures, as the locker room culture received a thorough cleansing.
A couple guys left because they wanted to leave the program, Richt said at the time. A couple left because we helped them out the door.
The result was the core of a team that won two straight division titles. But, along the way, some players left who could have helped prevent last years downturn.
Change just for the sake of change isnt necessarily good. It has to be the right change. It was a few years ago. This time around, the verdict is out.

"Obviously, you're a football fan before you start playing this game. I think in the all the years that I put in with Brett (Favre) and played with him it's pretty neat to be there for an event like that. Whether you're on the opposing team or not, it's going to be pretty neat. It will be pretty crazy. I think the fans will be excited about Brett's situation, I think they'll be a little uneasy about their quarterback situation, but I think it's a great opportunity for us at the same time."

We are all children of our creator. Supporters for a "yes" vote on Question 1 are not following the Golden Rule, which is the same throughout the great religions of the world.
Same-sex marriage is about love, not the bedroom.
Marriage is a spiritual union and, in my opinion, should not be denied to a minority group that has the same need to have their relationship honored as the majority.
We need to evolve and be more open-minded, loving and accepting. Just because someone can procreate does not make them a better spouse or parent.
My cousin is gay and she is one of the best mothers I have ever known. She and her partner deserve the same rights and respect that my wife and I enjoy.
I hope others will join me in voting "no" on Question 1.
