#tblightning owners Jeff and Penny Vinik make $500,000 gift to Florida Aquarium; I'm thinking the Viniks in this community is a greater giftErik Erlendsson, via Twitter, remarking on the Vinik family's grand philanthropic gifts
"I'm not going to lie, we had a group in the running for this. We lost to Koules, and we lost to (current owner) Jeff (Vinik). We raised an awful lot of money. We had enough money to buy five franchises. I don't think we got outbid. I think (NHL commissioner Gary) Bettman thought Jeff was the right guy. And so do I. "We were close (to buying the team). We were really close. We went to New York, met with attorneys and different people. We stopped short of Gary because we wanted to be absolutely sure before we got to him.'' ... "I didn't want this team to move. I didn't like the way it was going. It was almost like Koules and Barrie were trying to run the team into the ground so they could move it. There was no way I could let that happen, not if there was one possibility I could stop it.''Phil Esposito, in an interview with St. Pete Times Columnist Gary Shelton
I think that's what Mr. Vinik (new owner Jeff Vinik) will bring to this organization. He'll bring stability. He wants to do things the right way, and I think guys are excited about that.Vincent Lecavalier
"Are these the replacements? I didn't think they were going to do it this quick."Todd Fedoruk, seeing a youth hockey team warming up at the St. Pete Times Forum after the team met with new owner Jeff Vinik.
"If we can put a winning team on and off the ice, I know we can pull that passion (that once fueled Lightning fans) out of people."Owner Jeffrey Vinik

Smart playcalling and solid execution up-front can make any running back look like a superstar, though Fred Jackson is solid in his own right. On Sunday afternoon, Jackson took advantage of a superb playcall, near-flawless execution by his lineman and a safety that looked lost in the open-field as he sprinted 80 yards for the score.
The play was interesting both because of the blocking scheme and for how Jackson was utilized. In some ways, it was deceptive, with Buffalo showing one look before motioning into another before the snap. In others, it was simply power in the trenches and the exploitations of a massive hole in the middle of the field, created by the coverage New York showed.
To get a better idea of what happened, we're going to take a look at the play from beginning to end. You'll see it's simple and subtle, yet includes effective wrinkles and sound fundamentals, all adding up to a huge touchdown run by Jackson.
The Bills came out with four players split out and Ryan Fitzpatrick in the gun with Corey McIntyre to his left. Before the snap, Fred Jackson motions from the right slot, bringing his man into the box with him. What was a six-man front became a seven-man front.
Here's the look just before the ball is snapped. Jackson settles in at pistol depth, with McIntyre still offset to Fitzpatrick's left. All three defensive backs are lined up in press on the outside, as well. Buffalo has six on seven in the box, so the Giants should be a man free. Note the daylight behind the linebackers here, and how Deon Grant is playing centerfield all the way out of the frame. If Jackson can get free, he's got a whole ton of daylight in front of him.
As the ball is snapped, McIntyre comes across Fitzpatrick's face to seal the end. The rest of the offensive line flows to its left while Fitzpatrick turns and hands to Jackson. McIntyre's block is the key here, and is circled in red.
McIntyre does enough to take the end out of the play and the rest of the line seals the left edge of the hole. The right tackle, engaged and circled in red, peels away from the flow and seals the right side of the hole. It's his block that springs Jackson through the initial wave with relative ease.
While the hole doesn't look huge from the play-by-play angle, take a peek at it from the end zone angle. Notice the offensive line's flow has taken it to the left (or in the screencap below, right) side of the play, with only the right tackle peeling back to seal. All Jackson has to do is evade an arm tackle from the free man.
No problem. Because the defensive backs were in press on the outside and are still stuck with the receivers, Jackson has one man to beat in the middle of the field. Deon Grant began the play well out of frame, and now has to step-up on Jackson and make a stop.
Grant comes upfield hard to meet Jackson, but completely misjudges the angle. Jackson makes a quick cut to his left, Grant's angle is broken and the Giants' safety is left grasping at air as he tries to recover.
With Grant out of the way, all Jackson has to do is outrun the defense. He makes a man miss near the 10 and stumbles into the end zone, capping an 80-yard run with a touchdown.
While Jackson's individual effort is to be commended, this play started with the formation and motion. The execution and blocking up front gave Jackson a hole one could drive a truck through, allowing the Bills' running back a free pass to daylight with only the deep safety to beat.
A tip of the cap to Chan Gailey for motioning Jackson from the slot and using an offset pistol. In this case, everything went right as the Bills leveraged a favorable look and executed for a huge play at the time.

Landscapes are one thing, but how is the af for fast close up stuff? I actually find the old 24-70 to have very good af. Is the new one like the 70-200 that doesn't rotate but jumps to focus?As I said, I am not a landscape photographer. I just did this comparison because people asked for it.
I used it for the first time in the studio today. It was perfect. Didn't miss one photo. Great and fast.
I was having a lot of out of focus pictures with my new 1D X and the old lens. Problems I never had with the 1D Mark IV. I thought I had a defective camera or that it wasn't good enough. Turns out it was the Old lens that couldn't keep up with the speed of the new AF system...
I will be selling the old baby right away. If anybody is interested, let me know before I throw it on eBay.

North America includes Mexico, the United States, Canada, and Gotham City.
The region temporarily existed as a Protectorate of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Norton I, with its capital being the city of San Francisco. Sadly, this term of benevolent ebullience lasted a brief two decades and ended c. 1880.
The United States is now the dominant country of North America. It arose as a nation only 225 years ago after a successful rebellion against the British government under King George III.
From a distance, it appears that the eastern coastlines of North and South America fit exactly into the west coast of Africa. In fact, about 250 million years ago these continents really were all connected in one land mass that we have named Pangaea.
With such a foundation in tectonic unity, there is no doubt that someday soon the people on every continent of earth will realize their fundamental similarities. Expect massive leaps in creative output in your area!

Room air purifiers - sometimes referred to as "room air cleaners" - are portable, electric appliances that remove fine particles, such as dust and pollen, from indoor air.
ENERGY STAR certified room air purifiers are 40% more energy-efficient than standard models, saving consumers about 230 kWh/year and $25 annually on utility bills. These savings could add up to $200 over its lifetime!
Current Specification Effective Date: July 1, 2004
The ENERGY STAR specification for room air purifiers measures energy efficiency by using a Clean Air Delivery Rate-to-Watt ratio. Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) is a measure of the amount of contaminant-free air delivered by the room air purifier. However, the US EPA does not endorse any manufacturer claims of healthier indoor air from the use of this product.

Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)
And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.
Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.
Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!
Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.
But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.
Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.

For the second time this year, minority groups at Bowling Green State University say they're being targeted on Twitter with racially insensitive tweets.
Black Student Union President Kevin Lewis says only one word describes what he felt when he saw what he calls racist tweets.
"[I am] shocked that this happened again, because it's only been about five, six months since the first incident," he said.
University officials are still trying to identify who is behind the tweets that say:
"The Black Student Union is a separatist white hating group. Our goal is to kill all whites," and "Fighting the white man with all my friends at BSU #BlackPride #EmbraceTheHate."
"We're really hurt by it," Lewis said. "Really offended."
Officials are trying to determine if a crime has been committed, and they could subpoena Twitter and request the identity of the person behind the tweets.
Lewis says he wants the person responsible to know the following:
"We're an open organization to everyone. We're not here to fight anyone, we're just here to make sure that we have a voice."

Busting myths about prestressed glass/metal windows
Myth: Hastelloy prestressed glass/metal windows using soda-lime glass provide a greater view diameter than those formed of duplex stainless steel and borosilicate glass.
Fact: The real key in determining viewing area is the thermal coefficient of expansion of the glass, not the composition of the metal ring. Since soda-lime glass has a higher coefficient of expansion than borosilicate glass it accommodates less compression and does provide a larger viewing area. But less compression means less physical strength, so a tradeoff in safety must be considered. And, borosilicate glass also offers more corrosion resistance, better thermal shock capabilities and greater physical strength.
Larger-diameter Metaglas® windows using soda lime have long been offered as an option, but the majority of Metaglas window users prefer borosilicate glass for the added margin of safety they provide.
Myth: There is no real fusion between the Duplex stainless steel and borosilicate glass in Metaglas windows.
Fact: Not true. The interface between glass and metal is literally fused. In a misdirected demonstration by a competitor, a Metaglas window was compromised by cutting a wedge out of the steel ring. Relieving the compression provided by the steel ring in this way, allowing it to expand to its theoretical diameter, overcame the fusion between the metal and glass, thus separating the two. The demonstration proves nothing and is hardly a likely event in actual service.
Myth: Duplex stainless steel is not a good material for fused glass/steel windows because its poor thermal properties lead to cracking along the interface where glass and steel fuse together.
Fact: Quite the opposite! The major reason Duplex stainless steel is the alloy of choice for Metaglas windows is its coefficient of thermal expansion. This makes it ideally suited to create a dynamically fused interface with borosilicate glass. Any tiny hairline cracks that might form at the interface are insignificant, simply a peripheral result of the powerful compressive forces that make Metaglas windows the safest windows available.
In addition, Duplex stainless steel has superior chemical and chloride stress-cracking resistance compared to 316 stainless steel; it has twice the yield strengths of conventional austenitic steels; and has more impact resistant that ferritic alloys.
Myth: The strength of fused metal/glass windows is the result of fusion between the metal and glass surfaces at the interface.
Fact: The strength of the Metaglas window actually comes from the radial compressive forces of the metal ring onto the glass disc. The fused interface that results is only a bi-product of the manufacturing of the Metaglas window. The real objective of fusing the two is to capture the strong compression characteristic of the glass while minimizing the weaker tensile characteristic.

Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport officials confiscated 100 guns last year, more than any other airport in the entire nation. This year they've picked up 67 guns in carry-on luggage. Now they said it's time to take action to prevent the problem.
CBS Atlanta News ran into country music singer Wynonna Judd at the airport Thursday and she weighed in on the issue.
"I'm not packing," Judd said.
Judd knows not to bring a gun to the Atlanta airport, but apparently others don't and the airport has added new warning signs to educate travelers.
"The Atlanta Police Department will arrest you and charge you for that violation," Atlanta police Chief George Turner.
The Transportation Security Administration said Atlanta is on pace to confiscate more guns this year than last, and just this week one was taken out of a passengers carry-on luggage.
"You can't take guns on airplanes," Airport General Manager Louis Miller said.
"Duh," Judd said.
Atlanta police said every time they respond to a call about a gun in someone's luggage, it takes two officers more than an hour to process the traveler.
"Every time TSA discovers a firearm in a bag at the checkpoint it delays the screening process for other travelers at the checkpoint," TSA Federal Security Director Mary Leftridge said.
"If there's a rule, there's a rule. It's not my rule," Judd said.
Airport officials tell us you can travel with a gun as long as you put it in your checked luggage and notify the airline in advance. If you do that you shouldn't have any problems.

Graphics: Watermarking Picturesstarted by Dutchy on Mar 12, 2004 — RSS Feed

I am trying to locate a Freeware program that I can use to add watermarks to pictures.
I am doing some work for the local maritime museum which is run by volunteers. I need to mark the pictures of the old sailing ships to prevent them being stolen.
Anyone got any suggestions?.

Not sure if this will help, but I used to use a freeware Āgraphics package to do this, the package has been updated several times, so I can't guarantee it still specifically does watermarking. Might be worth downloading it and checking it out though. It's Micrografx Picture Publisher and the link to the download is below:

Thanks Flaxen
No Luck!!
Followed the link only to end up at an Amazon page for a Corel product No longer available. Must have been subject of a buy out. Anyhow, thanks for the try.
Will keep looking!.
Has anyone else got any ideas?.

There is no completely safe way to stop people from downloading your pictures.
One way to make it much more difficult is to use flash as a container for your pictures.

thanks Mike, i have disable the right click option and now using watermark on the photo, as what you have say using flash container, i didn't know how to do it...i am very poor on this web design stuff, just creating it using dreamwaver. cheers

I looked at your post and then did a quick google search and came up with this nice tutorial which shows how to watermark with CSS and PNG images, click here for the tutorial .
One important note to remember that is in the tutorial comments, is that anybody with real HTML knowledge could figure out how to overcome this, but they have to realize that it's in the HTML in the first place (read the tutorial comments for more on what I'm talking about).
A great freeware photo editor that I use is Paint.Net. I also believe their was someway to watermark pictures via javascript, but I could be very wrong, but just do a search on google or yahoo (or better, both!). Make sure it's not "Web Page Watermarks". Web Page Watermarks are those tacky images that stay at a certain spot as you scroll down.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.

For macro, ff is better, because you get the detail. But since you loose the 1.6x crop factor, you have less zoom, so you may disturb bugs, and, you technically loose magnification, since your t2i gives you a (example 100mm macro) 160mm 2.8 with minimum focusing distance of x. With ff, you'll have a 100mm zoom, and the same x focusing distance.
Technically, no. A 100mm macro lens focused at the MFD will project the same sized image on both a FF and an APS-C sensor. There's no additional real magnification, the smaller sensor is just capturing a smaller portion of the image circle. Depending on the pixel densities involved, the APS-C sensor may (and likely will, for a newer APS-C camera) put more pixels on the target. But if that means more magnification, then a 5DIII has more magnification than a 6D, because it has a higher pixel density. If you compare a FF 5DII to an APS-C 20D with a 100mm macro lens at 1:1, the subject would be the same size in both images, because the pixel density is the same for the two sensors.
+1. I was going to say the same thing when I read this response, but good thing Neuro saw it first and explained it more succinctly than I could have.
Another issue for me was that I always wish for higher ISO sensitivity since the close focusing of a macro means less light available (and I don't own the macro ring light). So I think the FF advantage would help here as well.

I'm so glad we brought this little creep into our town. No more. I can't believe we let the little murderer out of prison. Now you know why people are arming up. And of course he violated his probation. Thank god he didn't kill someone while he was out. And now we got reports of the same type of thugs coming via the group home into our town, our schools, to intimidate and harm our children even more. I don't think so
on Aug 25, 2009 at 10:47 am
Thats NICE......let him out so he can kill someone else. What does he have to loose. It's the same ones that they let go....and they do something else before they put them in JAIL where they belong in the first place. When will these district attorneys LEARN!!!!!!!!!!!

A new study shows there could be another treatment for patients with a fatal form of leukemia when chemotherapy is not working.
Researchers are using cell therapy to fight the cancer and it is fighting it fast, putting severely ill patients into remission in just a matter of days.
It's a treatment that has doctors shocked, even double-checking their lab work to make sure they haven't made a mistake.
"This is pretty incredible, using a patient's own immune system to fight cancer," said ABC News Chief Health and Medical Editor, Dr. Richard Besser. "They had five patients with untreatable cancer. They used a virus to inject genetic material into a patient's own white cells to turn them into cancer fighters. Those then went out into the body and destroyed all the cancer cells. These patients they all went into remission."
David Aponte, 58, tried chemotherapy and relapsed, so he joined the T-cell study.
Eight days later, his leukemia was gone.
Doctor Renier Brentjens is Aponte's oncologist and actually started the lab work behind this clinical study 14 years ago.
"We write this up that this should work and it works in mice. We were shocked in the sense that it went so quickly and the results were so definitive," Dr. Brentjens explained.
Chemotherapy had also failed 7-year-old Emma Whitehead.
"She was the first patient with this kind of chemotherapy to have this. She is in total remission, is doing great," said Dr. Besser.
William Hyman is the Assistant Professor of Medicine in Oncology at the UT Health Science Center in Tyler. He said like those in the study, he too has patients who are losing their battle with leukemia and chemotherapy is not working.
"You have to be able to travel to these few centers around the country that have these studies open and the patient I saw just about a week ago, I'm going to contact and see if he's interested in traveling, but he probably does not have the means to be able to go cross country. He's just that sick," Dr. Hyman explained.
Doctor Brentjens would like for this to be available at more centers, but that is going to take funding, funding his team is trying to raise right now.
They also hope to develop similar technologies targeting other cancers.
It is the success he has worked diligently for years to see.
"This is why we do what we do. Many cancer researchers go through their entire careers without ever getting to this pinnacle," Dr. Brentjens said.
And for the patient? This provides a new glimmer of hope.

Greeneville rolls past Signal Mountain
Updated On: Oct 25 2013 11:35:30 PM CDT
Week 9 of high school football was highlighted by unbeaten Greeneville beating Signal Mountain, a 4A power out of the Chattanooga area, 47-20 to improve to 9-0.
Greeneville jumped out to an early lead thanks to a touchdown run by Quan Wilson.
The Greene Devils added another touchdown minutes later when Isaiah Dabbs recovered a fumble and returned it for a touchdown to give Greeneville a 12-0 lead.
The Greene Devils led 19-0 at halftime and pushed the lead to 33-0 midway through the third quarter.
Signal Mountain finally got in the endzone late in the third quarter to make it 33-6.
Greeneville went on to win 47-20. The Greene Devils are now 9-0. They will conclude the regular season next week at Cumberland Gap.

With little fanfare and no discussion the Pasco School Board today approved sweeping reforms in its anti-harassment policies prompted by the attempted suicide of ZephyrHills High School Zachery Gray two years ago.
In an Eight On Your Side investigation Gray's parents complained that educators did nothing to stop students at ZephyrHills H. S. from tormenting their son by calling him fat and labeling him as gay even though he had a girlfriend at the time.
The district denied any responsibility after an investigation in which they interviewed only one teacher. The Grays later complained to the U.S. Department of Education which launched a civil rights investigation.
The DOE recently agreed to settle the case without formal findings of fault if the district put in place wide ranging reforms intended to prevent harassment on the basis of gender or sexual orientation and a mechanism to deal with it when it occurs.
"My son is where he's at because of that,"said Zachary's father Tony."If more kids don't wind up in that situation, it'd be great."
Before Tuesday's vote during the consent agenda, Superintendent Kurt Browning told the board, "Bullying and the perception of bullying is an issue in the Pasco School District and this resolution goes a long way specifically to address the bullying issue not only at ZephyrHills High School but through out our school district."
Still, Zachery's parents remain suspicious after their treatment by the former district superintendent and administrators who insisted there wasn't a bully problem that contributed to Zachery's suicide attempt.
"They say they're gonna do it," said Gray's mother Lynn. "But the laws were there before and they didn't do it."
Later, when informed of their skepticism, Browning said the policy change was more than lip service to settle the DOE investigation.
"It's for real," said Browning. "We have for the longest time--too long--taken the bullying issue and kinda put it on the back shelf and kind of buried our head in the sand and said we don't have a bullying issue."
Browning was not Pasco County's elected Superintendent of Schools two years ago when Gray attempted suicide, but he has seen other cases of bullying and suicide involving students unfold since his election last fall.
His district staff is planning a community forum to address the issue June 27th at Wesley Chapel High School.
"I have said repeatedly that bulling is a community issue not necessarily a school issue," said Browning. "However it manifests itself in our schools."
The Grays' attorney Robin Allweiss put the school district on notice they plan to sue for damages in connection with their son's alleged bullying and attempted suicide.
The Grays say they also plan to keep the pressure on in other ways to prevent more Pasco students from suffering the same fate as their son.
"We can't save our kid any more. What's done is done," said Zachery Gray's mother Lynn.
"But we can save yours and if we can save yours or your niece or grandchild then that's what we're doing, that's what we're fighting for."

The number one thing I recommend doing on board is going to the Supper Club (located in "The Point" restaurant) for at least one evening. The food was absolutely exquisite. There is a nominal $30 charge per person but the quality of the dining experience is worth far more. I would have expected to pay well over $100 a head for a meal of this quality. The comedy shows are very entertaining, particularly the "R-Rated" comedy for those traveling without children. The sushi available at "Sushi Japonnaise" which is available from 5:00 - 8:30 pm is definitely a plus for sushi lovers as well. Free room service is available 24 hours a day as well, which was quite a luxury.
If your cruise is heading to the Western Caribbean, the #1 shore excursion I would recommend is swimming with the stingrays in Grand Cayman. It was such an amazing, rewarding experience that I can not begin to put a price on. If you do choose this excursion, select the EARLIEST possible time. The inconvenience of leaving at 7:00 am or so will be highly rewarded with being the first ship to sea and 30-45 minutes alone with all of the sting rays. At about 9:00 am, dozens of ships arrive and the sting rays scatter amongst them all. In Cozumel, we took the Sail, Snorkel, and Party Boat excursion. It was approx. $65 per person but included snorkeling, a boat tour to a private beach, and free beer and margaritas on board. It was a great excursion, especially if you are a young couple or family.
Montego Bay (Jamaica) was our least favorite of the three ports. Mainly the fact that it is very impoverished and, therefore, money hungry causes people to pester you for sales. We didn't take a shore excursion in Jamaica, but if we go on this cruise again, we probably will. Taxi drivers in Jamaica tend to overcharge what I would consider to be a reasonable taxi cab fee as well. If you are just looking for a private beach to relax on, I would most definitely recommend Negril or Sunset Beach. There is a nominal fee to enter the beach but you will not be bothered by salesmen either. At all costs, I would avoid going into the markets unless you do not mind being constantly approached for your money.
Overall, this cruise was a great experience that I would love to do again soon! If you have any more questions, please feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Wind farm ban rethink urged
Updated 5:11pm Thursday 24th January 2013 in News By Rachel Masker
THE leader of Hampshire County Council was set to come under pressure today to rethink a blanket ban on wind farms on county council land.
An environmental pressure group will tell Councillor Ken Thornber the ban is "misguided and harmful".
The Conservative council imposed the ban saying the benefits of clean, sustainable wind energy did not currently outweigh the "adverse impacts" of putting turbines in the countryside.
A council report said that while some of Hampshire's landscape was protected as a national park or an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, other pockets of open ountryside and "ancient landscape" were not.
It added: "The introduction of large wind turbines and wind farms within rural Hampshire will have very significant impacts in terms of visual intrusion and damage to historic quality and to tranquillity."
But Angela Sealey, vice-chairman of Winchester Action on Climate Change (WinACC), which will make the opposite case at today's policy and resources meeting, said: "The visual impact of wind turbines is reversible. The effects of climate change on our beautiful countryside are not.
"It is our responsibility to leave our children and grandchildren a world in which they can live safely and sustainably, not one ravaged by rising sea levels, floods and extreme temperatures.
"Councillors are entrusted to make decisions on behalf of Hampshire's citizens now and in the future.
"Once a wind farm finishes its work, it can be removed and the land it occupied can be returned to its natural state. Decades from now other technologies might be available but we need renewable energy that works and we need it today."
Friends of the Earth groups across Hampshire will also address the meeting.
The wind farm ban has been welcomed by countryside campaigners but some would like the council to go even further.
Douglas Patterson, chairman of Keep Hampshire Green, which is campaigning against a wind farm at Bullington Cross, north of Winchester, said: "We welcome the signal. But what we would really like is for Hampshire to go a step further and follow Lincolnshire's lead and recommend there should be 2km between large turbines and inhabited locations or settlements."

Perhaps they knew Nimbys who didn't want the Newbury bypass or the Twyford Cutting? It's a fact of life that everyone can come up with a list of reasons to put something vital in an area that doesn't affect them but the UK is a small overcrowded island where people are going to have to suffer inconvenience and imposition because so many other people need the infrastructure.
You mean the Nimby`s from Winchester campaigning against something that would benifit the rest of us.

The marble sculpture by artist Craigger Browne was dedicated Thursday in a service hosted by the Arts Council, the Marble Festival Committee and the city.
Browne said he is humbled and overwhelmed to be part of Sylacauga's efforts to revive its marble industry.
"This city has so much to be proud of in terms of its history and what it's trying to do with marble," Browne said. "I can't tell you how honored I am to be part of this process. I hope someday (the sculpture) will become a small symbol of where you've been as you grow in the future."
The nearly 10-foot tall, 11,000-pound sculpture, made of Sylacauga marble from the Alabama Marble Quarry, depicts a stone carver forming himself out of a raw marble block. Browne said it is meant to represent Sylacauga's rediscovery in stone through its recent efforts to market its white marble.
"The pride that everyone has for the heritage and the history and the stone is unbelievable, so we decided to go with a concept along those lines," Browne said. "This was the first idea, and everything kept pointing back to it."
The sculpture represents the city's history and future in marble, Browne said. The carver's tools, which have been used in quarries for centuries, signify the generations of families that made their living working with Sylacauga marble. The raw stone portion shows there is both room for growth and the potential for balance between marble's industrial and stone block uses.
Browne, a Birmingham native with work in five of the world's seven continents, spent the last year planning and sculpting the piece. In April, "Sylacauga Emerging" was placed at its permanent location, where Browne could be seen almost daily fine-tuning the details of the sculpture until completing his work last month.
Although he was initially hesitant about working in front of an audience, Browne said it turned out to be a blessing.
"Hundreds and hundreds of people stopped by and told stories about their families that worked in the quarries," he said. "It was a distraction in the sense of completing the piece, but then I came to the realization of who this piece was really for. It's not for the Arts Council or the mayor's office or any one group; it's for everyone in Sylacauga, everyone that lives here or drives by."
Marble Festival director Ted Spears said the sculpture "signifies Sylacauga as the 'Marble City'" and has helped multiply the reach of the Marble Festival, which will be held for the sixth time next April. The Marble Committee recently met with Auburn University representatives who will help promote next year's festival in various ways, and Sylacauga's marble is also being featured in the award-winning documentary series "Discovering Alabama."
Bob Karell, plant manager at OMYA, Inc, which funded "Sylacauga Emerging," noted marble's expanding industrial purposes in addition to its use as art.
"There are new uses being found for marble all the time," he said. "It's a good substitute for higher cost materials, and it's a green way to replace petrochemicals. While other industries have come and gone in Sylacauga, marble continues to attract new businesses. It's good for the local economy; it provides stable jobs. It's great that Sylacauga welcomes that sort of thing."
As for Browne's future, he is continuing work at Sylacauga's City Shop, sculpting a "Madonna and Child" piece for a Birmingham church. Browne said he has several other opportunities lined up, but for now, he is humbled to have completed the city's latest work of art.
"It's even better than I imagined it would turn out," he said. "I have not had one bad experience in Sylacauga. It's just been wonderful."

Eccentric disc pump for low-flow transfer, dosing applications
Blackmer recently debuted its new Micro C-Series Eccentric Disc pump line, giving the company a complete range of eccentric disc pumps from 0.03 to 158.5 gallons per minute (0.1 to 600 liters per minute). The new Micro C-Series pump was designed for transferring and dosing additives in continuous processing applications and is available in three new models: MC125 with a flow rate of 0.03 gpm (0.1 lpm) to 0.6 gpm (2.1 lpm) at 217.5 psi (15 bar) maximum pressure; MC250 with a flow rate of 0.05 gpm (0.2 lpm) to 1.1 gpm (4.2 lpm) at 145 psi (10 bar) maximum pressure; and MC500 with a flow rate of 0.1 gpm (0.4 lpm) to 2.2 gpm (8.3 lpm) at 72.5 (5 bar) maximum pressure. The new pump is ideal for handling thin, abrasive, aggressive and higher viscosity fluids due to its low contact piston speed and direct contact between the piston and cylinder. The Micro C has dry running capabilities for self-priming with strong suction lift and is also designed to be flushed and cleaned in place (CIP). With its stainless steel construction and gentle, low-shear handling of fluids, the Micro C pump is ideal for numerous chemical process and metering applications. It also features seal-less technology (no mechanical seals) for zero leakage and maintains consistent delivery and pressure over long periods of time. Due to its small design, the Micro C is easily integrated into many applications. The pump measures only 9.5 inches in length and 5.4 inches in height (242 mm in length and 138 mm in height).

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
According to Greek legend, it was at Sorrento where Ulysses heard the tempting song of the Sirens, and the city remains irresistible today. Your introduction to this sparkling gem begins with a short stroll to a local shop where you will have the opportunity to observe an inlaid woodwork art demonstration. While decidedly Italian, Sorrento was originally a Greek village and its strategic seaside location on a high plateau is classically Greek. Sorrento's cliff-side setting affords fabulous views across the Bay of Naples, and more breathtaking sights lie ahead, as you proceed along a scenic coastline, dotted with olive groves and fragrant lemon and orange trees.
With each twist and turn of the road, you will be treated to a new and awe-inspiring view of the Italian Riviera. In the Bay of Salerno, you will see three small rocky islands called Li Galli, which were said to be the mythical home of the Sirens. Returning via the Cape of Sorrento, you will pass through several hilltop villages, including Meta and St. Agnello, where you can admire the imposing Mt. Vesuvius in the distance.
Please note: Mini-buses will be used to transfer guests from the pier to the motor coach parking lot and vice versa. This tour is mainly panoramic.

Snook anglers flock to Juno Beach Pier on opening daySaturday, September 7th, 2013
The Juno Beach Pier was a snook-fishing hot spot on Sept. 1, the opening day of snook season.
Juno Beach Pier manager Don Streeter said snook-hungry anglers lined up at 5:30 a.m. waiting for the pier gates to open to pursue snook on opening day. Other snook anglers were fishing from beaches near the pier.
Spanish sardines and other types of live baits were lingering around the pier on opening day, attracting snook, bonito, blue runners and jacks.
Streeter estimated that 20 to 30 legal-sized snook (between 28 and 32 inches in total length) were caught from the pier on opening day, but it was clear that many more snook outside the legal-to-keep slot were released by pier anglers.

As always the embarkation was easy and we were on the ship by 12:00pm. Our room was ready so we dropped off stuff and headed to Lido deck for lunch. Plenty of seating. Food selection never seems to change.
We had dinner in the wind song dining room, early seating. The waiters were extremely slow and never cleared plates before setting others down. All the Carnival cruises we have taken I've never had that happen.
Our cabin steward was Ada and he went above and beyond to take care of us. Room was always clean and ready.
On a five day cruise we only had comedy shows two days. And major broad way style shows two days. This cruise lacked in entertainment.
Freeport we took a excursion thru Carnival the Grand Bahamas and shopping cruise and tour. This I would recommend to everyone. The limbo show was great. Staff was courteous and very friendly.
Nassau we did an excursion on our own.
Ship was clean but had not changed much since we sailed on it in 1997.
Still love to cruise so will be on the Legend in Jan.

Those who complete pesticide applicator training then need to apply to the Nebraska Department of Agriculture for a three-year license card for a $25 fee. The private pesticide license card is required to buy and use restricted-use pesticides for the production of ag commodities.
License fees collected by the NDA are used by natural resources districts in their educational programs.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSPastor T.D. Jakes Donates Water For Relief Effort
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Jan. 14, 2014 4:54 PM EST
Updated: Jan. 15, 2014 12:40 PM EST
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (Jeff Morris) -- West Virginians are getting a helping hand when it comes to bottled water from one of their own.
Bishop T.D. Jakes, senior pastor of The Potter's House in Dallas and a native son of Charleston, is providing two tractor-trailers full of bottled water, according to a news release from Charleston officials.
Once the tractor-trailers arrive, city officials said, they will distribute the bottled water to the public from the fire stations in Charleston that have been serving as water distribution locations and from Abundant Life Church on Washington Street East, with the help of Pastor Wayne Crozier.
Charleston Mayor Danny Jones said Jakes called him Sunday afternoon and asked how he could help. Even though the worst of the crisis seems to be over, Jones said, many people still are affected by the do-not-use order and many are anxious about using the tap water for drinking or cooking.
"We will be able to use this water to meet the continuing need in our community, and I appreciate Bishop Jakes' willingness to help," Jones said.
Because of the anxiousness over the water, the mayor said the city is going to try to keep bottled water distribution sites open in Charleston as long as supplies last. Cases of bottled water are also available inside St. Marks United Methodist Church, Washington and Dickinson streets).

The former chairman of the African and Afro-American Studies Department at the University of North Carolina has been indicted by a grand jury.
Julius Nyang'Oro was indicted around noon Monday in relation to the UNC academic scandal, Orange County District Attorney Jim Woodall said.
Nyang'oro was forced into an early retirement in the summer of 2012, but had not been charged with any crimes.
The long-running scandal led to the firing of football coach Butch Davis, the eventual resignation of chancellor Holden Thorp, and revealed problems in the African and Afro-American Studies Department, as athletes took classes with little oversight.
In a statement, UNC president Tom Ross said, "In the spring of 2012, then Chancellor Holden Thorp and I directed that the State Bureau of Investigation be notified of possible criminal activity stemming from the academic fraud issues that had taken place at the Chapel Hill campus.
"Following a more than year-long SBI investigation and thorough review by District Attorney Woodall, an indictment was returned today against former faculty member Julius Nyang'oro, who was identified by the initial campus investigation as one of the two individuals responsible for the academic irregularities that occurred in the Department of African and Afro-American Studies.
"We fully support the district attorney's decision to seek an indictment in this case."
The issues came to light in 2011 after a summer course included almost entirely football players. The irregularities dated back to 2007.
Ross, in a previous interview, said the problems centered around two people once employed by UNC.
One was the department administrator, Deborah Crowder, who retired a couple of years before the problems were discovered. The other person at the heart of the matter was Nyang'oro.
District Attorney Jim Woodall said one more person could face multiple indictments, but would not confirm if that person is Crowder.
He said Nyang'oro will likely face just the one indictment.
"We looked at several charges. But it's like I said very early on in this case, I didn't think there would be a lot of criminal activity that would be uncovered, and quite frankly we didn't," Woodall said.
"We did find probable cause to find that there were some crimes committed and we're going to charge for those crimes."
Ross said firing Nyang'oro would have no impact on his state pension and could have led to a costly appeal.
Nyang'oro was hired in July 1990. His salary at the time of his resignation was $159,249.
UNC has put in place new rules about how many independent study courses a professor can supervise have been put in place. There are now limits on what students qualify to take them. A contract with specific expectations for students must be created. A new electronic database for grades will now be in place.

editor's note: today's article guest blogged by Clem Shepherd
Do you ever have them dreams where you keep livin' the same horrific event over and over again? I believe they call 'em recurring nightmares, or some phrase all scientific-y like that.
Well, I have a recurring nightmare, and his name is Marbotty, that shit-for-brains feller who seems to fashion he's a Royals expert or somethin', and who keeps asking me to save his rump whenever he needs content for one of these "sports blag" hoohahs they do on the internets.
Now, he's a "royal expert" alright: an expert at being a royal pain in my tuckus. And by that I mean my hind-quarters. And in case you still don't follow me, I'm talking about my derriere. (That's for all you damn francophones. )
Anyway, Marbotty compiled a list of players, and their statistics, and asked me to write a bit about them. Like I ain't got nothing better to do.
Well, I don't. But that's only because I'm 78 years old and got a bum ticker. That's also why I didn't kick his rear to Santa Fe. (Although, I figure I could still kick it to Albuquerque.)
Anyway, let's just get this over with.
1. Michael Moustakas
Drafted: 1st Round, 2007 Position: SS Key Stats: .293/.383/.439 Team: Idaho Falls Chukars
Now, I admit I didn't know who this Moustakas character was, so I asked Clem, Jr. to look him up for me on one of her internet-mails. Well, she learned me a couple of things.
First, it turns out he was the number 2 overall pick in this year's draft.
(Talk about digging deep to find an "intriguing" minor leaguer - you're a regular Alfred Einstein, Marbotty.)
Okay, second, it turns out that a group of young folks have started calling him Moose Tacos. Now, they probably came up with that name in jest, but it weren't too funny to me.
See, back in '68 I found myself stranded up in the northern territories, and as luck would have it, I got to sample some of the local cuisine. That's why I can tell you firsthand that while Moose Tacos might taste purty good, it ain't worth the Moose Squirts you get the next day. And if you don't follow me, I'm talking about my hind-quarters again.
It might as well read "Montezuma's Revenge" on their shirts, for all I'm concerned
Off topic: found out that the feller pictured below kicked off the season with a rousing speech during the opening game for Idaho Falls. Seemed to be a pretty savvy political move, if you want my gosh-to-honest opinion. You know how it goes: you win over minor-league-baseball-watching-Idahoans, you win over the nation.
Alright. Back to baseball. Who's next? 2. Peter Mitchell Hodge Nielsen
Drafted: 4th Round, 2007 Position: P Key Stats: 4.24 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, 35 K's in 42 innings Team: AZL Royals
Well, to be honest I don't know what's so damn intriguing about this kid. The only thing even remotely interesting about him is that he's Canadian and that he's got 4 names. Well, guess what Mr. Maple Leaf, I've got five names: "Clem I Hate Canadians Shepherd." So put that in your bat and cork it.
Shucks, though. What the hell kinda name is that, anyway? He's probably the type of guy that goes around using made up words like "tally-ho" or "dilly-dally" or "thesaurus." The type of guy whose favorite sport is croquet, and who wears a sweater tied over a white polo while washing his car. The type of guy that uses napkins and washes his hands after using "the loo." You know, the type of guy that thinks he's better than Clem Shepherd.
Well, he's not, or my middle name ain't "I Hate Canadians."
3. Sam Runion
Drafted 2007, 2nd Round Position: P Key Stats: 51 k's in 51 innings, 3:1 K:BB ratio Team: AZL Royals
You know, I came down with a case of the Runions once. Ol' Doc Parsons said it was incurable. This chapped my hide since it meant I wouldn't be able to ride out to Cheyenne to see my sweet Tess.
So, I came up with my own cure for this supposedly incurable disease when I fried up some lard and shallots together and smeared the concoction on my ailing feet. Well, wouldn't you know it, but that durned thing worked like a charm, and I was off in no time.
Of course, Ol' Doc came across town to investigate, and after he saw what I had done, ended up marketing my wondercure as a sort of ring-shaped, shallot-based equivalent to the common potato chip. Durned thing sold like hot cakes.
Talk about throwing science down the drain for the sake of personal glory, though.
4. Angel Berroa
Drafted: 1999 Position: SS Key Stats: .300/.364/.433 8 hrs Team: Omaha Royals
Hate to admit it, but this was another youngster I hadn't heard of before. From the looks of it, though, I bet fans in KC can't wait for him to get called up. A .300 hitter with power? At shortstop?!
Don't worry, kid. You'll get your first taste of the bigs soon enough. And based on your current production, I reckon you'll have a purty good chance at winning yourself a little hardware when you do.
Help is here soon, Kansas City!
5. Mike Stodolka
Drafted 2000, 1st Round Position: 1B Key Stats: .291/.402/.462 73:91 BB:K ratio Team: Wichita Wranglers
You know, this actually is one of the more exciting guys in the Royals system. He was initially drafted to pitch for the R's back at the turn of the century, but he couldn't hack it and started playing first base. And by the looks of things, he's done alright for himself.
Mike Stodolka, shown warming up in 2002
It's a regular Horatio Alger story, except without the whole destitution part. (Don't ask me what that means -- Clem Jr. printed it off from something called "Wikipedia," which I imagine must be some sort of space encyclopedia that the Ewoks use.)
Back to Stodolka. Now, if I were Buddy Bell, I'd be lobbying Dayton More to bring him up to the major leagues as quickly as possible. That way, I could keep him on the bench for the rest of his season/career, so as to teach the kid a thing or two about trying and another thing or two about how much I hate him. (I reckon he's a Canadian. Sounds like one, anyway. )

Dr. Norton began by noting the current national debate on the need for health care reform, and told the luncheon guests that BCRF is very much a part of the discussion since "the best way to keep people healthy is to advance medical research."
Arnold Levine, PhD of the Cancer Institute of New Jersey and the Institute for Advanced Study, reported that his laboratory's search for tumor suppressor genes and genetic mutations that increase breast cancer risk has led them to posit that genetic predisposition may sometimes lie in an individual and not run throughout her family. They have found that some individuals may be much more likely than others to pass on genetic mutations; these studies are continuing to chip away at the complicated question of breast cancer susceptibility.
Clifford Hudis, MD of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, who is also the Chairman of BCRF's Scientific Advisory Committee, described his studies (with Dr. Andrew Dannenberg) of the inflammatory pathway, which also lend support to the existing evidence that obesity is a risk factor for breast cancer. They have shown that excessive calorie intake is linked to chronic inflammation, which in turn affects the function of the BRCA1 gene, possibly influencing cancer risk
Joyce Slingerland, MD, PhD, FRCP(C) and Marc Lippman, MD are both based at the University of Miami. Dr. Slingerland praised BCRF for giving her and others the flexibility to pursue exploratory ideas that may lead to new prevention and treatment strategies. Questions that her laboratory is currently pursuing include: What component of fat cells may cause breast epithelial cells to proliferate, and why does breast cancer tend to metastasize to the bone? Dr. Lippman reported that his group has identified at least five new tumor suppressor genes.
Joan Brugge, PhD described her studies at Harvard. As a laboratory scientist, she studies cancer cells rather than patients but the questions her group focuses on are aimed at improving treatment. For example, in looking for the genes that give cells the ability to survive outside their home environment, she and her team work closely with clinicians to develop new drugs which will inhibit the cells� ability to survive.
Dr. Norton reported on his breast cancer research, which is rooted in mathematics and the study of how and at what rate living things grow. He describes his collaboration with Dr Joan Massague, whose laboratory proved that cancer cells tend to come back to "re-seed" at the original tumor, making it grow faster. If this theory can be shown to work in humans, it will open up new avenues for treatment and the search for drugs that stop the seeding process.
The panelists ended by responding to audience questions, including one about the revived debate about the benefits of breast cancer screening methods and recommended frequency. Dr. Hudis said that the benefits of screening are significant and that the broad use of mammography in developed countries became one of the largest, most successful public health experiments in history, leading not only to reduced mortality but also to fewer mastectomies.
Together, these investigators provided an opportunity to see how scientists and clinicians are working in tandem to gain a deeper understanding of how cancers behave and the impact of the environment on their behavior.

CNHI News Service
DAYTON, Ohio —
Indiana saved its best for last on Sunday.
And the Hoosiers' quest for the program's sixth national title rolls on.
Outplayed for much of the game by No. 9 seed Temple, IU rallied for a 58-52 win over the Owls in the NCAA tournament's third round, with Christian Watford adding another highlight to his personal highlight reel and Victor Oladipo clinching the win with a clutch 3-pointer.
Now the Hoosiers (29-6) head to Washington, D.C., for the Sweet 16, and a matchup Thursday with No. 4 seed Syracuse (28-9).
The first half Sunday was the Khalif Wyatt show. Temple's standout guard, the Atlantic-10 Player of the Year, had 20 points on 8-of-14 shooting as the Owls led 29-26 at halftime.
"I think I was just being aggressive," Wyatt said of his early success. "My teammates kept coming to me, and I was just being aggressive."
While Wyatt was off to a hot start, his teammates weren't. The other Owls shot 4-of-20 in the first half.
But the Hoosiers weren't much better, shooting 10-of-26 in their second-lowest scoring first half of the season. Ohio State held IU to 25 points in a 67-58 win over the Hoosiers on March 5 in Bloomington.
"This is as tough a team as we've faced all season," Indiana coach Tom Crean said. "You can see it on film, but film doesn't do justice obviously to how tough they are."
IU actually jumped out to a decent lead, taking a 20-11 advantage midway through the first half on a Watford jumper. But the Owls closed the half with an 18-6 run.
The Hoosiers didn't lead again until Oladipo hit one of two free throws with 1:19 left to break a 52-52 tie. Oladipo added a 3-pointer with 15 seconds remaining after Watford's block of Anthony Lee, and Watford added two free throws for the final margin.
Temple didn't score in the final 3:09.
"The whole game they were overplaying me, but I think the last six minutes maybe they just all-out face-guarded me full court," said Wyatt, whose frustration with IU's style of play was evident at times. "It was real hard for me to get the ball.
"Oladipo is a really good defender. And that kid, (Remy) Abell, is a really good defender. It was just really difficult for me to get the ball," added Wyatt, who finished with 31 points after he shot just 4-of-10 in the second half.
Lee added 10 points off the bench for Temple (24-10), whose season ended in part because three Owls starters — forward Jake O'Brien and guards Will Cummings and Scootie Randall — combined to shoot 0-for-21 from the field.
"I've had days like this," said Randall, who was 0-for-12 himself but did have a game-high nine rebounds. "The only thing that was going through my head when I was missing is keep shooting and do other things to try to help my team."
"Temple couldn't get separation," Crean said. "If they had been able to, things would be different. But they couldn't get separation."
Oladipo led IU with 16 points while Cody Zeller scored 15 and Will Sheehey added 10 off the bench.
And Watford, who scored nine, gets his wish.
"My motivation is to play with these guys as long as possible," he said.

Jane Lynch Hosts SNL This Week!Posted by ERIN in Glee, Saturday Night Live
October 6th, 2010, 11:59 AM
Funny lady du jour, Jane Lynch, is hosting Saturday Night Live this (spoiler alert)… Saturday!
Known by most as Glee's acerbic, tracksuit-sporting cheerleading coach, Sue Sylvester, Ms. Lynch is finally getting mainstream praise for her comedic chops. But some of us have admired Jane's improv genius and delivery for years thanks to her earlier appearances in Christopher Guest comedies like Best in Show and A Mighty Wind. More recently, she stole scenes from the bros in bromantic flicks like Role Models. And last year, Jane was seen guffawing loudly alongside Meryl Streep in Julie & Julia.
And before all of that? Jane's big break was in a Frosted Flakes cereal commercial!
Well, we all gotta start somewhere…
There should be no doubt that Jane Lynch can rile up a humorous ruckus on SNL, but that's only so long as the writers and cast can keep up with her. I gotta say: if these awkward promos with regular, Fred Armisen, are any indication of how Saturday's show will go… well, my beaming smile might start to twitch and crack into a concerned, Stepford Wife-style grin:
Ehhhhh… Well, just tune in to Saturday Night Live on NBC this Saturday to see if J. Lynch gets you LOLzing! *fingers crossed* Musical guest is Bruno Mars.
