Carjacking suspect shot
MESQUITE - A carjacking suspect was shot as he attempted to flee from police early Wednesday morning in a Mesquite neighborhood, police said.
The Wednesday incident began when authorities received a call of a carjacking around midnight in the 3600 block of Byrd Drive. The caller reported two armed men stole a 2009 silver Acura and the victim's wallet.
A short time later, authorities attempted to pull over a vehicle matching the description of the stolen Acura. A short pursuit ensued, with the suspects bailing from the car in the 3600 block of Bahamas Drive. One suspect was immediately apprehended and the other was shot in the backyard of a home around 12:30 a.m.
Dallas police said the officer feared for his life, shooting three rounds, one of which struck the suspect in his lower back. The wounded suspect, Demarcus Shorter, 19, was in stable condition Monday at Baylor hospital, as he and two others face felony robbery charges.
The other suspects have been identified as Deshon Jackson, 19, and Keith Simon, 17. The stolen car hit a curb, spurring Jackson and Shorter to jump out and flee on foot. Jackson was caught right away, police said.
In a statement, a spokesperson said during the foot-chase, "Shorter suddenly stopped, turning toward the officer quickly raising his hands from his waistband," said Sgt. Brian Parrish. "Fearing for his life, the officer fired three rounds from his service weapon striking the suspect one time."
The officer involved is a seven year veteran of the department. He has been placed on administrative assignment as the shooting is investigated.
"What the officers were telling us seemed reasonable, but as in every case, it's going to be referred to the grand jury," Parrish said. "So we're going to have outside oversight in this and there will be a full investigation. If there are any improprieties they will come to light."
Police say Shorter did not have a weapon on him when he was shot, but investigators did find two guns in the car.
All three suspects face felony robbery charges, including 17 year-old Simon. Police say he drove Jackson and Shorter to the original carjacking scene. No one else was injured in the incident.

Doing Signaling a Wave – A Timelapse Impression of Vivid Sydney 2011 was a great learning experience and I decide to document down the making and thoughts behind this music video. This will help me a lot when I look back as journal, and hopefully this will be some way helpful to others who also interested in timelapse video.
Note: I realise there are fair number of Chinese audience to the video. Please let me know in the comment if a Chinese translation of this article is desirable. I may decide to translate the whole thing (which isn't my greatest skill…) if enough people asking for it.
It all started by an inspiration of Sydney Harbour timelapse video done by Philip Bloom where he managed to capture the beauty of Circular Quay from only his hotel room in 1 night. This was eye-opening to me as I always thought you will need access to spectacular views and the instinct to pick the right time frame to start the shootings.
I made up my mind to try out on timelapse video and bought a cheap intervalometer. Originally I thought I'll have fun: shoot a sequence, make a small GIF animation or short video, show of to friends and repeat. However the colour and light in Vivid Sydney amazed and motivates me to start something bigger.
So the 'fun' self evolved to a half decent project, where I only have 1 year of experience shooting and no experience dealing with video clips. I even don't know how to apply text overlay to a video (which will be further elaborate later in this post).
Test the Water
Before everything, I have to make sure I do have the capability to capture timelapse. So I do a test run on 1 scene of the Sydney Opera House (which is the scene from 0:21 to 0:28). I did my first timelapse sequence with the following camera equipments:
- Nikon D90
- Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G
- Wired Intervalometer
- Standard Weight Tripod
It worked great and I'm glad I only have to invest in the intervalometer like initially intended. After took the photographs, next step was to convert into a video format. After some search over the net, I quickly learnt that it can be done by Adobe Lightroom: A existing software without further investment. With 'Slideshow' function in Lightroom, I was satisfied and now able to proceed with the project (of course, only afterward I realise the technical difficulties of recompiling music, splicing and video effect).
In summary, the software used in this making were:
- Lightroom 3.3
- LRTimelapse 1.3 Dev
- Audacity 1.3 Preview 2
- Format Factory 2.60
Plan it out
There are many light sculptures in this year's Vivid Sydney, many of them are interactive artwork and I want to cover more than just the signature Lighting the Sails (scene of Sydney Opera House). I planned to shoot a maximum of 3 minutes long video exclude intro and outro, and I decided 15fps frame rate is acceptable instead of going for standard 24fps. And not knowing how I will use each sequence of timelapse, I think a 15 seconds timelapse video for each scene should give plenty of padding for post editing.
I dropped down scenery that I wish to capture such as:
- People on treadmill (#19: Re-CYCLE!)
- Bright light beams shooting from the Overseas Passenger Terminial while standing in front of the light.
- Kids playing with MCA projectile (#20 Interactive Paint Projection)
Roughly 25 scenes were picked include backups, I planed out a routine of 2 nights and the order I should visit each scene with Sydney Opera House and The Rocks on separate nights.
15 seconds per scene means I will need to have 225 photos when at 15 frame per second. Most timelapse sequences were captured in 1 second exposure and 1 second interval: this is the fastest setting my intervalometer able to perform. So to shoot 225 photos I will have to standby for 450 seconds (= 7 minutes 30 seconds) of shooting per scene. I tend to stand for a full 10 minutes, you know.. just in case. Weather on both night are dry and not windy, otherwise the entire process may be much more dramatic. 2 video clips were also captured designated to be used as outro. I later realised video editting was way over my head and decide to dump them and stick with frames of photos.
In the end, 21 of 25 scenes were captured. Abandoned scenes were either because lack of interaction, little creative light or simply ran out of time.
This is the most relaxing part of the project where I can sit back and sample through several create common songs from sites like Jamendo until I find one that able to delivery the mood I want to project onto the video. To make sure I don't browse through endlessly, I keep the link of ones I like until I hit 5 and I stopped. I waited till next day (as a second opinion from myself) and run through the 5 songs I picked and make decision on 1. There is the possibly where I might ended up disliking all 5 the next day and have to through the whole audition process again. But gladly, that did not happen.
I use Audacity to analyse the song, adding notes as I repeatly listen to it. The first thing I look for is mood: identify low key, excitement and high. Secondly I search for "stops" that are suitable for scene changing. Although the stops doesn't nessecary lands on the exact seconds, but I can safely said it is in either 3, 4, 7, 8 or 15 second sequence. This is the deciding time spot to change timelapse scene within video. I also use this software to truncate the song from more than 5 minute to under 3 minutes and apply fade in and fade out to both end of audio clip.
Disclaimer: I know nothing about audio engineering, so some of the chosen strategy might seems hideous and not recommended if you know what you are doing. But that was what I did anyway.
most people will tend to think timelapse video is meanly about taking photographs then photoshopping them together. I think building a storyline as if i'm directoring a film is also a critical part of an exciting timelapse.
Knowing the stops in music means I can draw boxes and fill in names of timelapse scene when listening to the song again and again while picturing the scene I picked.
I throw timelapse scene into storyboard in try and error approach: complete a storyboard, look at photos of that scene for designated number of seconds and switch to the next photo sequence emulating follow up scene. I will quickly find mismatchings such as long boring scene, or similar scenes too close together causing repetitiveness. When the storyboard is built, I have to sleep over it to get a second opinion from myself the next day, in which I did made minor changes to the storyboard and is then happy with what I setup.
18 scenes out of 21 were used. 1 abondoned scene was a reshot of MCA interfactive light paint. The other 2 were before and shot scene of Fire Dance which was too dark and not as exciting. Originally there was plan of reusing same photo sequence and alter with zoom or order, but this idea was forgotten somewhere along the process…
Disclaimer: similar toaudio editting, I have no knowledge of plotting, so it may seems extremely inefficient on the way I do this..
Post Editing
Now I have a huge stack of photographs and the precise instruction on how to puzzle them up, it is now time to create timelapses.
I start by using photoshop batch processing to shrink photo resolution from 3216x2136px (average 1.8Mb) to 1608x1068px (average 220Kb). Originally was to speedup sampling, but evantually I used the shrinked size in final production as size is good for 1280x720px video.
In Lightroom, I created a catalog for the entire shootings and separate scenes with different collections. Knowing the length of video for each scene, I know the exact number of photos I will need to make the timelapse (for example, opening scene is 11 seconds which is 165 photos). I pick a section that I believe is the best and trim of the rest.
I touch up the first photo of each scene (straighten, brightness, color balance) and use Sync Settings to apply same settings to all photos in the collection: One of the most favorable feature in Lightroom). Then I use LRTimelapse to create transition effect: panning, zooming and fadings, which was extremely straight forward and easy to try and error to find the best configuration.
An unexpected scenario was I was unable to find an easy solution to add text overlay for intro and outro. After hours of frustration, I decided to fade out my outro to black and insert blank frames with text to the end of timelapse sequence as my solution of outro. Extremely fiddling, but it worked!
Finally, after all has aligned, it is time to make timelapse video. By using the "Slideshow" function in Lightroom, you can create slideshow sequence of 15fps and output in video format (mp4). Originally I want to create different timelapse scene as individual video file and merge all together with Format Factory, however I found that Format Factory will create an undesirable ~0.25 seconds blank between sequence, which really bothered me. In the end, I have the slideshow video as the entire thing.
Sampling a 320x240px takes less than 30minutes to generate and creating the full quality (1280x720px) video takes 1 and half an hour to complete. When video is generated (correctly. Yes, it does fails), I use Format Factory to join the video with the audio I cut up earlier. Since my video is 2 seconds longer than my audio, I will have a 2 second silence in the end, which is the exact output I wanted.
The project span over a week and was shot in 3 seperate nights. There was late nights but was enjoyable and seeing the result was really rewarding.
Things I should have done better are:
- I skipped few testings timelapse samples in later half, and some transition effect was unexpected. For example, Customs House was suppose to zoom in slowly and Crystallized was meant to rotate.
- I off-sync the beat by exactly 1 second, because 0:23 to 0:24 is consider as 2 seconds not 1. The end result is actually off beat, but I still consider them as acceptable (enough that I don't want to wait for another 1.5 hours generating the video file)
- Scene selection was not great. Several moments I have doubt on my plot, however I locked in and decided not to make changes to the plot. The advantage of that is the project completed on time, otherwise I will be be perfecting the video right now…
- I caught a flu afterward. Should have wear more warm clothing when out shooting. Body temperature drops surprisingly fast when you are standing not doing much.
I had fun, I have you enjoyed the video as well as this article. Feedbacks are always welcome as they will contribute greatly toward my next timelapse video.

Towles Court gets new gallery on the block
Date: July 27, 2011
by: Loren Mayo | Community Editor
When Kathleen Power Johnson noticed the for-sale sign on what was formerly the Katherine Butler Gallery, in Towles Court, she felt a sudden urge to purchase the quaint building and offer Sarasota artists a supportive venue for their work by turning it into a non-traditional co-op. At the time, she was retired.
Artists on the Court (1943 Morrill St.) currently features the works of 10 local artists and will soon begin offering classes in everything from "Magical Mandalas" to "Rocking Chair Mondays."
"It was as if the designer built it for me," Johnson said. "I knew immediately I had everything I needed for artists to work, show their work and let the public see them working."

New Orleans, La. - Police have arrested 19-year-old Akein Scott, investigators' primary suspect in the shooting of 19 people at Mother's Day second line in the 7th Ward.
He has been charged with 20 counts of attempted second-degree murder. Bail was set at $10 million - $500,000 for each count. It is unclear why Scott faces 20 counts of attempted second-degree murder.
Akein Scott was just arrested in the Little Woods neighborhood Wednesday night. Little Woods extends along the lakefront for much of the width of the New Orleans East area, and NOPD has yet to say exactly where Scott was arrested.
NOPD spokeswoman Remi Braden told reporters that no additional details would be provided about the arrest until Thursday morning.
Police identified Scott Monday night as the suspect who fired a handgun as the second line passed the intersection of Frenchmen Street and N. Villere Street. Police say Scott is no stranger to the law, claiming he is involved with street gangs and narcotics.
Scott was arrested on four charges on March 5 at Frenchman and Derbigny, just three blocks from the Mother's day shootings. He was charged with resisting an officer, illegal possession of a stolen firearm, illegal carrying of a weapon while in possession of a controlled dangerous substance, and possession of heroin.
The DA dropped two charges and accepted two charges, the illegal carrying of a weapon and the heroin charge.
A magistrate set Scott's bond at $15,000 for his release pending trial. And sources tell FOX 8 that the bond insurance company only approved a bond of $5500, as shown on the back of the bond form. It was an apparent mistake that no one caught, and Scott was released.
NOPD says members of Scott's family were helping him hide from authorities, but they have not announced any arrests among his relatives.
A $10,000 reward was set for information leading to his capture.

I only know part of the history of my hoe. It ended up at my dad's place. I'm not sure if it was because of some trade or if somebody just abandoned it. My dad accused it of being home made. I always thought it had enough resemblence to Green's hoes that it might be one of his early manual units. In any case, it came with a mounting bracket for a Ford and I made one for use on an A or Cub. I have tried it a little bit. It is definitely a handful. If I was going to actually use it much, I think I would at least try to modify it to use the Touch-Control to regulate the depth. It will reach out farther than where it is shown in the picture, but gets harder to handle. You will want to keep your work in as close as possible to the tractor. You will have better control and the side draft on the tractor will be minimized. Work the row from both sides and you only need to reach as far as the actual line of the vines.
Some grape hoes were made more like Gerry's sketch, except usually braced back to the bell housing. Effectively it would be similar to what you were talking about with your Cub-22 mower, except made of sturdier parts. The Touch-Control connected to that brace for up and down. It was made to telescope and a hydraulic cylinder could run it in and out. You might be able to apply some of this to Gerry's idea to develop it some more.
Do you have a Cub-54 blade? Maybe you could belly mount it and replace the blade with a tool bar. This gets you into something that is likely to be more work to swap out with your sickle bar mower or other implements.
By the way, your comment "Then pulling out moving in or out a bit and redoing the back-n-forth bit." reminds me of one warning. Don't try to back up with your digging tool in the ground, especially if you just attach to the universal mounting frames. Pressure backwards may break the front bracket of the mounting frames. If you go with something like Gerry's brace, you will probably be OK.
Here is a page I ran across. It is old news but maybe it or something it links to will be useful.

Lowering Mobile Development Barriers to Entry: SDKs in the Cloud
Icenium is today launching what would appear to be a very compelling proposition – an environment that enables cross platform mobile development that decouples development from a particular development environment, full suite of developer products and SDK. Icenium decouples the compilers from the platform and makes the SDKs available in the cloud as a service. What this enables, as an example is for a developer to build an iOS app without xCode and without a Mac. The idea is that web developers can use their existing skills to build,test and publish mobile applications to Android and iOS – all without platform specific work. Icenium is spearheaded by Doug Seven, who previously headed up Visual Studio for Microsoft.
Icenium itself is a product borne out of Telerik, a global provider of software development tools that, for the past 10 years, has been all-Microsoft. Seeing the quantum shift to mobile, the company has shifted pririties to being cross platform – it also released Kendo Ui recently, a cross-platform mobile frame work for building mobile, desktop and web apps; and Test Studio for iOS, a free app to test web, hybrid and native iOS apps.
So what benefits is Icenium promising to developers and businesses? For developers:
- A decoupling of mobile development from proprietary mobile languages—if they can code for the web, they can build a mobile app
- The ability to target the most popular platforms and mobile-device form factors using just one tool
- The ability to move away from multiple SDKs. The Icenium platform is all that is required
- The ability to work on projects anywhere with a machine and an Internet connection
- The ability to build once, target many. No need to build, deploy, and maintain multiple versions of the same app
And the benefits to business:
- Build line-of-business apps that meet the unique business requirements
- The ability to make mobile apps within a reasonable budget and time frame, get to market faster, and see a swift ROI
- Adapt to bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies without adding another layer of device management
- Leverage in-house skillsets to get the job done without the cost of outside consultants
The value prop for Icenium makes sense – to target the most relevant platforms, developers need specific Mac and a Windows environments, as well as all of the individual proprietary platform SDKs. Alongside this it takes time, energy, and resources to learn Objective-C for Apple iOS and Java for Google Android, not to mention building for one of those platforms, only to rebuild for the other. Clearly, the platform providers care more about their technology than the developers' need to work across all platforms. One solution for this is building to only one platform – this is a viable strategy for some use cases but for other not so much, which is where hybrid apps come in. Icenium enables the creation of these hybrid apps, but without any platform-specific work or toolsets. Of course the obvious question is what about the non iOS and Android platforms – one assumes that as they gain adoption, Icenium will roll them out also.
Key features of Icenium include:
- The ability to use existing HTML5 and JavaScript skills
- Individual SDKs are part of the Icenium platform hence developers can forget about them
- Icenium includes device simulation and debugging
- The simulator includes real-time updates across all supported devices
- Version control built in to the product
- Deployment automated via the Ion app in iOS
- On-platform support for publishing to both the Apple App Store and Google Play

Another HTML5 solution, how is this different from PhoneGap's build server?
Codename One is a better solution in this regard since it provides an actual enclosed environment rather than a thin HTML wrapper and "yet another IDE".
Krish Kumar replied on Fri, 2012/11/09 - 2:27am
Developers can get more benefits when using SDK in the cloud and make the application more efficiency and reliable.
Ju Peter replied on Thu, 2012/11/29 - 1:53am
I really appreciate your work thanks for posting…please write more blogs on such topics,I would like to read more such blogs.
Aubrey Hunter replied on Wed, 2012/12/05 - 5:00am
Yes SDKs in the Cloud is a good description for searching some important words for me as well! Just a quick note to tell you that I have a passion for the topic at hand. Thanks for this important consult............
Krish Kumar replied on Tue, 2012/12/18 - 7:48am
SDK plays important role in the cloud and it makes the easy to find information and in quick time.
Clarice Wallace replied on Thu, 2014/05/22 - 7:54am
SDK is still important in mobile application development and it not going to close at all for any reason, so don't worry just enjoy..Mobile application development developers

HAMMOND, La. – Family and friends of Jaren Lockhart gathered to say a final farewell to the 22-year-old who was gruesomely killed three weeks ago – her dismembered body discovered on Mississippi beaches.
Emotions were running understandably high at a service that Jaren's family preferred to call a celebration of her life.
"She loved dance, music, art, anything that was fun," recalled Christa Bourque, a friend. "She embraced it with everything in her being."
Dozens showed up to the Brandon Thompson funeral home to show Jaren Lockhart exactly that – love. Bourque was decked out in hot pink and black, the 22-year-old's favorite colors.
Bourque said Jaren's brother Lance wore the same colors. "She's the one who dressed us," said Bourque of Jaren.
Friends and family say Jaren loved being a mother, writing, dreaming of being a hairdresser and dancing. Originally from Albany, Lockhart was living and working in New Orleans as a dancer on Bourbon Street. Her elementary school drill team teacher, Catherine McCrea, stopped by to offer condolences.
"She was a very sweet child, a very smart child," said McCrea. "I hate that this happened to her. I pray that God, that her family gets some closure."
Lockhart was killed earlier this month. Body parts began to wash up on several Mississippi beaches days after she was reported as missing. Two people – Margaret Sanchez and Terry Speaks are considered suspects in her murder, but they have not been officially charged.
Those who came to say a final good-bye Wednesday wanted Lockhart to be remembered, not by how she died, but by who she was.
"She loved life," said Bourque. "She was the most energetic person. She'd give a person the shirt off her back."

The Herald Bulletin
Recent history has been kind to teams holding the 24th overall pick in the NFL draft.
Among the stars selected in that spot are running back Steven Jackson (2004, Rams), quarterback Aaron Rodgers (2005, Packers), running back Chris Johnson (2008, Titans) and wide receiver Dez Bryant (2010, Cowboys).
The Indianapolis Colts have their own success story with the pick, landing Iowa tight end Dallas Clark at No. 24 in 2003.
So general manager Ryan Grigson has reason to believe he can add a significant talent when the Colts go on the clock at No. 24 in the first round Thursday at New York's Radio City Music Hall. But he's not letting past success breed complacency.
"I'm optimistic (a blue-chip player will be available), but again I always talk to you guys about doomsday scenarios, and we'll be prepared," Grigson said during his annual predraft press conference Thursday at the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center. "If there's a player there, you hope it's a blue, but if there's a sure-fire starter or at least an eventual starter that's going to strengthen this team and fit the vision of winning championships, then we'll pluck him, we'll take him. But if there's just a guy there and we feel like if we had a two (second-round pick) then we can get this guy, that's bad business. We aren't going to do that. We are going to trade back."
The Colts have been active in the first month of the offseason, signing 11 free agents that include eight potential new starters. That, of course, has changed the outside perspective of the team's draft needs.
With the loss of outside linebacker Dwight Freeney, Indianapolis could use an upgrade in its pass rush. The offensive line also could get reinforcements on the interior, and no team can have too much talent in the defensive secondary in today's pass-happy NFL.
Wide receiver is another area that could be addressed, with good value expected to be available late in the first round.
The Pittsburgh Steelers nabbed Stanford guard David DeCastro at No. 24 last year, and the New Orleans Saints chose defensive end Cameron Jordan in that spot in 2011. Both of those positions are likely to be on the Colts' draft board this year, but Grigson said he won't become a slave to need — real or perceived.
"If there's a stud who's just staring at you and staring holes through you from your board and he's at a spot you feel strongly going forward in the draft process and that guy can substantially make you better, you have to at least have that discussion," Grigson said. "We're willing to have those discussions. At the end of the day, we want the best football players who are going to get us where we want to go, and that's to win Super Bowls."
About the only position Grigson ruled out selecting is quarterback.
There aren't stars at the top of this year's draft to match quarterbacks Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III last year. But the depth of this year's class is strong.
Grigson said the draft is deepest in the trenches, and there is expected to be a run on offensive lineman early Thursday. But the lack of clear franchise players has made projecting the draft difficult.
It appears likely Indianapolis could be choosing from talent at wide receiver, cornerback, inside linebacker, safety and all along the defensive line when its pick finally comes up.
Grigson won't hesitate to pull the trigger if somebody jumps off the board at him, but he's also determined not to reach. If the value's not there, look for the Colts to cut their losses and attempt to recoup the second-rounder they lost in last year's trade with Miami for cornerback Vontae Davis.
"We'll see how that board starts falling," Grigson said. "Of course, if there's not a player sitting there at 24 that the room is not excited and we're not high-fiving and things like that and we're not even doing a little fist-bump, we probably shouldn't take that guy. We're going to probably look to trade out if there's a player there we feel is just OK. We want players at that spot, especially in the first round, that are going to substantially help us get to our goal."

Marinated Mushrooms and Cheese Recipe
From Mendota, Illinois, Kim Marie Van Rheenen shares a simple but scrumptious recipe with make-ahead convenience. "I like to serve these savory mushrooms alongside sliced baguettes and crackers," Kim suggests. "They're colorful and so versatile. You might like to vary the cheese or add olives, artichokes or a little basil."
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil), julienned
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
- 8 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, cubed
- In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes and water. Let stand for 5 minutes; drain.
- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the oil, vinegar, garlic and salt; add the tomatoes, mushrooms and cheese. Seal bag and toss to coat. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. Drain and discard marinade. Yield: 12-14 servings.

Hi all,
I am currently rebuilding the IH carb that was on my cub. I have it all taken apart, and the warpage has been corrected according to Lurker Carl's instructions. It has also been bathed in carb cleaner. The only thing I have been pondering is the removal and replacement of the strainer screen. Does it just push out? It seems like I will destroy it. Does the new one just push in? Again, it seems too frail to squeeze into that little area without bending or breaking. I am just making sure, before I go ahead and regret not asking. Tips are appreciated.

First time cruises, but had a great time, ship nice and clean even though people from week before were still on board, we boarded in limassol at lunchtime, lunch was ready when arrived on board this also gave us time to look around the ship
Before everybody came on board, cabins compact but everything you needed was there. Facilities were good,sauna gym, live shows were excellent a was all the entertainment on board. Food, so much of it and what a variety.
Thomson tours quite expensive, went to Jerusalem/Bethlehem would not recommend this tour, so much rushing around and really did'nt get to see a lot, would get a taxi from outside port and negotiate a price, taxi drivers also act as tour guides so they are good. Staff fantastic most are Philipinos and cannot do enough for you, we tipped well at the end even though we did'nt have to, they deserved it.

KOB, that avatar is hilarious.
thanks Java but I could think of other adjectives to think of than hilairous. How was the game? I'm sure it was electric.
It was electric at the end for sure. I had a great time at that game. It was such a beautiful day for football too. Hot cheerleaders to look at all day, a football game and a win on a gorgeous day. Then a trip to Hooters afterwards. Life doesn't get much better than that.

This weekend I was treated to a nice surprise when leaving the North Side of Endicott. I saw the bright unmistakable colors and patterns of a hot air balloon. I did not make it to this Summers Speedie Fest and Balloon Rally, so imagine my surprise, getting a ring side seat (in my car) as this balloon was making what seemed to be a landing attempt on Taft Avenue, Endicott at the Cemetery. It was still pretty foggy, so getting good pictures was a challenge. The Chase Crew was on the scene, and ready, but the balloon managed to get some lift after all and "Up, up, and away" it went.
It ain't over 'til...

I actually bought this exact same set from a bedding store three years ago and it has held up very, very well. It's on my son's bed and has been washed, dragged around the house, jumped on and still looks brand new. I happened to see it today in an Overstock advertisement for significantly less than I paid. Highly recommend.
I love the colors and feel of this quilt but would not recommend it for a queen sized mattress...it is 86 x86, not 90x90 and just meets the bottom of the mattress with no overlap. I do not have an oversized mattress with pillow tops, just a regular mattress so I thought the full/queen size would be fine especially since it is advertised as a 90x90 inch quilt. But that was incorrect.
I bought this for my 12 year old grandson. It is beautiful, stylish and comfortable. It will probably last him until college and beyond!
I am happy with this quilt. Colors are true to picture. Size is great for Eastern King. Only thin, so won't be warm enough in winter. Will have to add a blanket.
Absolutely beautiful quilt. Product was exactly what the picture showed. Well made. Not to thin, not to thick. Extremely pleased.
I always have to wash anything before using it. I was worried about how this quilt would hold up in the washer, but it did fine. The quilt looks very nice and feels soft and snuggly. It's not too light and not too heavy. It is perfect for the whole year with maybe a light blanket added on really cold winter nights. The only problem, and it's a big one, is the size of the quilt. I ordered a king size and it is definitely not large enough to cover to average size bodies on a king size bed. I am going to keep it for my son's full size bed when he gets a little older, but will have to keep looking for something to put on my bed. Such a bummer. I really love this quilt.
Beautiful and well made. A good choice for a masculine look. The size is generous for our full size bed.
Very good value. Exactly what I needed and expected.
This comforter and the matching shams are perfect for a boy's room! My grandson loves them. The plaid contains enough colors so that matching any coordinates are easy. I would definitely recommend this set from Overstock.com. I had checked the price at many other internet sites as well as at local stores and Overstock has the best price.
I bought this quilt for my Dad's summer home; purchased for his birthday. The colors are just as you see in the picture, however, the stitching seemed quite loose. I've made a few small quilts myself and would have preferred tighter stitching.

Yaz's bypass shows heart health is key
Cardiac issues can affect anyone, Beth Israel surgeon says
For younger fans of the Red Sox, it's impossible to imagine a time when their team didn't dominate the Boston sports consciousness, didn't challenge for championships and frankly, didn't matter. That was before 1967, Yaz and the 'Impossible Dream' team. Carl Yastrzemski put the Sox on his back that summer and led the team from worst to first. Helping the Sox to stage so many heart-stopping, late-inning comebacks, they earned the nickname "Cardiac Kids." Those memories came flooding back on Tuesday when news broke that Yaz had been hospitalized with chest pains.
In some ways, it was hard to reconcile those images of an athlete in his prime -- a Triple Crown winner -- with the knowledge that a 69-year-old Yaz is now recovering from triple bypass surgery.
"No one is immune from heart problems," says Dr. Kamal R. Khabbaz, clinical director of cardiac surgery and interim chief of cardiac surgery at the Cardiovascular Institute at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. "Some are more at risk than others, either from genetic predisposition, lifestyle issues or lack of risk modification."
If your profile shows family history of heart trouble, you've got to be vigilant -- there's a good chance it's in your genes. If, however, the profile in your mirror shows you are having trouble fitting into your jeans, that would be those lifestyle issues Dr. Khabbaz is referring to.
"Some of it is pretty straightforward. If a person is overweight and out of shape, it puts a lot of physical stress on the heart," he explains. "Obviously, diet and exercise can moderate that risk by lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and improving the fitness of the body in general and heart in particular."
He adds that kicking a smoking habit can prevent more than lung cancer.
"I think some people might be surprised to learn that smoking puts people at huge risk for coronary disease," he says.
Yaz was a smoker even during his playing days. He tried to quit more than a couple of times but, like many, found nicotine difficult to give up. Dr. Khabbaz is sympathetic with patients like Yaz ... up to a point.
"Any addiction is hard to conquer, but smokers have to understand that their habit not only increases the risk of developing plaque -- the substance that blocks arteries -- but also makes it more likely that that plaque can rupture. That can be deadly."
The choice to perform a bypass rather than treat the problem with angioplasty or stents is usually based on several factors, he explains, including the number of blockages and their location. While a bypass is a more involved surgical procedure, it will continue to be the best choice for some patients.
"There is a lot of discussion about bypass vs. angioplasty, but the fact is bypass will continue to play a major role in the treatment of coronary disease. It isn't the appropriate choice for everyone, but for many, the long-term benefits are tremendous. "
It's been 41 years since Yaz brought sunny days back to Fenway Park and cast his shadow on the Green Monster during that remarkable summer of '67. The hope here is that he will be up and about as soon as possible -- casting for stripers as he loves to do.

it's true...I get jealous but then I think about the sexy silk thong I'm wearing and it makes me feel better
do you get jealous whenever you see threads praising hot people based solely on looks or sex appeal? does it upset you? do you put a fake smile on so people dont feel bad for you?
or do you follow the edict "Dont judge a book by it's cover" as you're comfortable in knowing it's what's inside that counts? does that help you sleep at night?
as a solid 8, I don't give this topic much thought, but today got me thinking about it.

Yeah. Being hot isn't a virtue! But it does help me sell my photography.

Sanders sets NLDS RBI mark
Grand slam gives Cards outfielder six RBIs in Game 1
ST. LOUIS -- Reggie Sanders broke open a game and a couple of record books with one swing on Tuesday afternoon, crushing a grand slam off Padres ace Jake Peavy that put the Cardinals in firm control of the opening game of their National League Division Series.
Sanders' slam, on a 3-0 pitch from Peavy, was the sixth in the 11-year history of Division Series play, and the third in Cardinals playoff history. Added to his two-run single two innings earlier, it gave him six RBIs in the game, setting new standards in Cardinals postseason history and NL Division Series play. Four players have driven in seven runs in an AL Division Series game.
The last Cardinal to hit a playoff grand slam was Gary Gaetti in the 1996 NL Championship Series. Before that, it was Ken Boyer in the 1964 World Series. And that's the list.
The long ball was the sixth of Sanders' playoff career, and his fourth in 21 Division Series games. It chased Peavy, the Padres' unquestioned No. 1 starter, and let the Cardinals get into the middle of the San Diego bullpen.

The service throughout the ship was excellent and unobtrusive, and all public rooms were kept spotless. We enjoyed the Chart Room, Sir Samuel's and the Commodore Club. The fish and chips in the Golden Lion were very good. We ate most of our meals except for breakfast in Britannia, we had a table for 4 at the main sitting. On the whole the food at Dinner was very good, with just a few lapses i.e. overcooked fish and a escalope of chicken served with too little sauce. But the beef was delicious. Lunches were excellent. After the first two mornings we ate breakfast in Kings Court as we had more choice of fruit, cheeses, breads etc and the omelettes cooked to order in the Galley were fresher than those served in Britannia. The experience in Britannia compared to Queens Grill was different, but the food was good and our waiter Arnold was very professional and although quiet quickly learnt the preferences of ourselves, our table companions and those on the adjacent table.
One little niggle, Cunard had informed us before the cruise that there would be 4 formal nights, 1 semi formal (the night before we disembarked) and 6 elegant casual, only 1 ball- the Black and White Ball. When we received our welcome aboard newsletter, we found out there would be 3 elegant casual, 3 semi formal and five formal nights, including 3 Balls, Black & White, Masked and Ascot. This also happened on our last trip on QM2.
We chose to do two shore excursions, the Mageroy Island tour was excellent but the tour of Tromso was disappointing and not value for money, the Botanical Garden is still a work in progress and an hour there was wasted, we did however enjoy the museum. At the other ports of call we did our own thing and enjoyed exploring the area. The weather was not that good and we didn't get to see the midnight sun but that's not something that can be helped. It certainly did not mar the holiday. Several of the ports were maiden calls and the local people were out in force to see this lovely ship. Overall a lovely cruise.

Discover Adionomy, Your Online Radio Advertising Campaign, Fast, Easy and Custom-Made!
Million Dead were a London-based punk band that formed back in late 2000 through out of work associations, mutual friends and in the case of vocalist Frank Turner and drummer Ben Dawson from their previous band Kneejerk and ended after a farewell UK tour in September 2005. The combination of original guitarist Cameron Dean's diverse and intricate guitar riffs along with the powerhouse combination of Julia Ruzicka's bass lines were the perfect backdrop to Turner's often upfront and outspoken views on UK politics and society as a whole.

e1609 targets a patient population that is at a high and unacceptable risk of recurrence and death after standard surgical management. Patients with resectable high-risk deep cutaneous melanoma, patients with lymph node involvement by melanoma, patients with gross extra-nodal extension of disease, satellites, and/or in-transit lesions, as well as patients with completely resected stage iV disease, have the highest recurrence risk and the poorest disease-free and overall survival rates. The quality of the host immune response in the earlier adjuvant setting supports a higher likelihood of clinical benefit from immunologic interventions. This observation is supported by the our clinical experience with high dose interferon-a-2b (HDi ), which reduces relapse risk by up to 33% in the adjuvant setting, but induces response in 16% of patients with advanced inoperable disease. This provides support for the evaluation of clinically active immunological agents such as anti-CTLa4 blocking antibodies in the earlier adjuvant disease setting. Taken together with the demonstrable clinical activity of ipilimumab in advanced unresectable melanoma, this also provides support for our current proposal of adjuvant ipilimumab versus HDi for high-risk resected melanoma patients. HDi is the optimal control arm for the adjuvant study of ipilimumab in patients with high-risk resected melanoma.
Three reported national studies have evaluated the benefit of high dose interferon-a-2b (HDi) as adjuvant therapy for patients with high-risk stage iiB and iii melanoma. The first and third of these studies demonstrated significant overall survival prolongation, compared to observation (e1684) and compared to a vaccine (GMK) that was selected as the optimal vaccine candidate at the time (e1694).The larger individual patient data meta-analysis of 13 randomized trials has also shown a significant impact of interferon-a upon overall survival. in addition, no other agent has ever been demonstrated to provide similar relapse free or survival benefits for this patient population.
The advantage for patients treated with HDi amounts to a relapse frequency reduction of 24-38% and mortality reduction of 22-32% based upon the hazard ratios for patients treated with HDi or observation, or the vaccine (GMK). For stage iV melanoma, iFn-a; was the first recombinant cytokine to be investigated clinically for the therapy of advanced metastatic melanoma. HDi continues to be the only option available for patients with high-risk surgically resected melanoma outside of a clinical trial.
The trial shall consist of 3 aRMS a, B, and C; high dose interferon-alfa (HDi); high dose ipilimumab (HiP) and low dose ipilimumab (LiP).
as of april 4, 2014, patient enrollment to arm a (ipilimumab at 10 mg/kg) has been completed. all new patients will be assigned either interferon alfa-2b (arm B), or ipilimumab at a dose of 3 mg/kg (arm C).
Durable clinical benefits have been demonstrated in the advanced inoperable melanoma setting with ipilimumab, and with relative safety.
Rationale for testing the 3 mg/kg ipilimumab dose level compared to HDi in e1609 in addition to the testing of 10 mg/kg ipilimumab dose level compared to HDi is due to the positive results in metastatic melanoma. MDX010-20, published in 2010, resulted in the FDa approval of 3 mg/kg of ipilimumab in treatment of unresectable and metastic melanoma.

BLOOMING GROVE (WKOW) -- A strong-arm robbery took place late Sunday night outside Bailey's Bar in the town of Blooming Grove.
Dane County Sheriff's deputies say a 51-year-old Sun Prairie man reported four individuals approached him in the parking lot as he was backing out of his parking stall.
The victim was told he had hit their car and they demanded money. The man says he turned over $50-$60, but denied striking their vehicle.
The victim states one of the suspects punched him in the face and briefly lost consciousness. His adult son arrived and took him home, where he then called to report the crime.
Minor injuries were sustained, but he did not require medical attention.
Deputies are looking for anyone who may have witnessed the crime, or been inside the bar Sunday night.
Of the suspects, two are described as black males and a third was a black female. The fourth suspect is unknown.
Anyone with information can contact the Dane County Sheriff's tip line at 608-284-6900.

Choose the color dough you want to use and roll it out into a smooth, flat shape. Select one of the monster transfers and peel off the clear plastic sheet. Place the transfer face down on the dough. Wet the back of the transfer using the water applicator, making sure every part gets wet. Then, gently press the transfer press against the transfer for at least 60 seconds. Peel off the backing to reveal your character on the dough. Use one of the dough cutters to cut out your monster, and attach any of the character parts by pushing them into the dough. When the dough dries, you've got a fun monster figure to play with. If you mess up or want to make another character, just remove the character parts before the dough hardens, smash or roll the transfer back into the dough, and use the dough over again.
