MIAMI (AP) - Tropical Storm Gabrielle has re-formed in the Atlantic and is approaching Bermuda. The storm's maximum sustained winds early Tuesday are near 40 mph with some strengthening forecast over the next two days.
A tropical storm warning has been issued for Bermuda, where Gabrielle is expected to bring a storm surge of 2 to 3 feet above normal tide levels. The U.S. National Hurricane Center says the storm is expected to pass over or near Bermuda by Wednesday morning.
The tropical storm is centered about 165 miles (265 kilometers) south of Bermuda and is moving north near 14 mph (22 kph).
Farther east over the Atlantic, Tropical Storm Humberto's maximum sustained winds have increased to near 65 mph (100 kph) and the storm is expected to become a hurricane later in the day.

HOUSTON (BP) -- The Southern Baptist Conference of Associational Directors of Missions changed its name and organizational structure during its annual conference, June 9 at Second Baptist Church in Houston.
Now called the Southern Baptist Conference of Associational Leaders, the group eliminated the offices of president, first vice president, second vice president and editor, replacing the old structure with a team ministry model that will double the number of elected leaders and include in leadership representatives from the International Mission Board, North American Mission Board, LifeWay Christian Resources, GuideStone Financial Resources and Woman's Missionary Union.
The new name reflects the reality that paid associational leaders are not all called directors of missions, with many carrying titles like executive director and associational missionary, according to outgoing president Johnny Rumbough.
The team ministry structure "will help the organization to be able to make decisions more expediently and put the emphasis on the missionary equipping component, which is what we're about," said Rumbough, director of missions for the Lexington Baptist Association in Lexington, S.C. In team ministry, leaders make decisions and carry out ministry tasks rather than making decisions then directing other people to do the work, he said.
Speakers at the conference included IMB President Tom Elliff, NAMB President Kevin Ezell, GuideStone President O.S. Hawkins, WMU Executive Director-treasurer Wanda Lee and NAMB vice president of mobilization Aaron Coe.
Among the topics of breakout sessions were "partnerships among associations," "reaching the nations that live in your association," "training pastor search committees" and "the missionary role of the director of missions."
The new organizational structure includes an executive team and a nominating team, each elected by the conference for three-year terms. A recording secretary is elected annually. The executive team will elect a conference team leader who will be responsible for planning the annual conference and appointing a team to assist him. The position of executive director-treasurer is eliminated under the new structure.
The constitution and bylaw changes that create the new structure also allow the group to hold its annual conference at a time not in conjunction with the Southern Baptist Convention annual meeting.
The changes will result in a larger team planning the annual conference in order to accommodate growth, Rumbough said. From the 1,000-plus Baptist associations in America, fewer than 200 leaders have attended the conference in recent years, but Rumbough said potential attendees number 2,000-3,000.
"The challenges that associations face are in the area of missions strategy," Rumbough said. "So we're wanting through this conference to provide the kind of equipping that will help our associational leaders be better prepared to reach the communities where they live."
The constitution and bylaw changes were presented at last year's annual conference before being voted on this year, according to organizational policy.
Hawkins told directors of missions that they are like the biblical character Barnabas, providing encouragement to those in ministry. Barnabas only "has center stage four times in the Bible," Hawkins said. "And every one of those times he's like a DOM. He's out there having to deal with issues and he's encouraging people."
Coe told DOMs that they play a key role in NAMB's Send North America strategy for planting churches and reaching people for Christ across the U.S. and Canada. He added that by hosting one of NAMB's Churches Planting Churches training sessions an association can help its pastors think like missionaries.
"One of the biggest reasons our churches are in decline is that the neighborhoods around our churches have changed, and our churches have lost their missional vision on how to reach the communities that are right around them," Coe said. The training sessions help churches "think missionally."

Just my opinion
Farmall Cub Forum -- Questions and answers to all of your Cub related issues.
Moderator: Team Cub
Forum rules
Notice: For sale and wanted posts are not allowed in this forum. Please use our free classifieds or one of our site sponsors for your tractor and parts needs.
Just my opinion
Maybe I'm out of line here. If so you can delete this faster than I can post it.
Advertising Policy:
Advertising will always be "Farming/Tractor" related. Advertising space sold on this website is to provide additional funding to the website so that it can continue to provide a place for all Cub owners to gather and share information about these wonderful tractors.
Advertising rates run from $12.00 to as low as $6.00 per month. Send your inquiries to email@example.com
I think anythig done on this site for profit should give the 6 to 12 dollars per month to the Web Master
Young man for work, old man for advice
Profit sharing
Right on target Jim. I agree. Chat and profit making ventures should be separate.
That may be true, but it might require the wisdom of Solomon to make the separation. Sometimes some of us make otherwise unobtainable or prohibitively expensive items available for our friends without regard for profit. Without chatting about them, you won't even know about them. Don't you agree?
Do you seriously think the $50 hydraulic blocks are a profit making venture? Really?
George Willer
The most affectionate creature in the world is a wet dog. Ambrose Bierce
Actually I agree too. I looked all over this site to see if there was a rule against avertizing on the forum and I couldn't find it. Plus I thought I was providing members with something they needed. I gave a lenghty explanation to what my position was on one of the other posts. I'll summerize here. I'm not making on red cent on these blocks!!!. I out sourced them with someone I know who has the time and ability to make this item on a very professional level. As time goes on you come to realize what a valueable recource this man is. He can make just about anything and it will look as good or better than new. Butt it comes at a cost. Last I checked nobody was selling him propane,steel, aluminum,cutters,ect. for free. Therefore I must pass this cost on to those who wish to purchase my products. I repeat, I am not making any money on this forum, only providing what you ask for. You asked I delivered. Bill 740-407-6589
I agree chatting about what you can make is good for all. Lots of parts need to be reproduced. I had rather buy from the folks on this board than China. But commerce where there is any money made or not is commercial traffic. As the policy on the home page says.
Advertising space sold on this website is to provide additional funding to the website so that it can continue to provide a place for all Cub owners to gather and share information about these wonderful tractors.
Web space cost money. So who should pay for it??
I want comment on this anymore.
Young man for work, old man for advice
I think this is a sensitive subject and I for one am glad for Wkpoor's post and plan to purchase a block or two. I am in agreement with both Jim and George. At $50.00 per block I do not think that there's much profit in it. Knowing a little about the cost of machine work I would think $50 bucks is close to break even. I think in this case it's a very fine line between advertising and providing wanted parts to the board.
Maybe this can be best resolved by reading the Home Page under:
Privacy, Policies, & Mission Statements
"Advertising/Spamming in the message board is prohibited.
Use the free classified ad section to sell your goods and services or request needed items."
While I very much appreciate the availabilty of such a part at a fair and resonable price, rules are rules lest this board become something we all wouldn't like.
Touchy subject
The comment by George Willer got me to thinking. What if I were to list parts for sale in the classified section without telling anyone. And someone else noticed the listings and told this forum about them. Then there would be threads dedicated to the subject of these parts for sale. Wouldn't that be the same as what already has occurred? I realize its a gray area butt I'll do whatever is right.
"WK", I wouldn`t worry about it. Just continue serving your fellow Cubbers that need & wish to obtain the service that you are providing for Us/Them. I have bought items talked about from members here on the board with no problems.
My 2-cents worth.
Then came Bronson
There's not mutch to disagree with here. Maybe were just over reacting as this isn't the first time something like this has happend and if it's a mortol sin, send me the 12.00 bill. Thats nothing for the three years of enjoyment that i have gotton from this board, and i'm not buying a block "Jack"
Profit Sharing
Personally, I feel if business is solicited, then advertising should apply. But when someone is responding to the request of others, that would not be offered otherwise, then let it be. In the latter case, it is not a commercial venture, but friends helping friends.......Bill V.
Bill VanHooser
Chat and profit
I hate to see this subject digress to an emotional state. The solution is easy. I applaud WK for being able to provide a part wanted by a number of board members. That some have brought up the subject of commercialism is not meant to slight WK, but rather to head off a full onslaught of commercialism.
If I had something needed by another board member I would say so on the forum and ask that details be worked out via personal Email. That way board dictates would be met and individuals could discuss cost, number of parts, etc., to their hearts content. Ionly jump back into this discussion because I would hate to see happen to this board what has happened to others.
I have the ability of making my own parts so I don't have a dog in this hunt other than what I have already said. Like Jim, I won't mention this again.
Last words. We haven't heard from the board bosses. I believe we will when they figure we have all vented our spleens.
Merry Christmas all
As has been stated by others, I don't have anything in this discussion. I believe that if things get out of hand and the board starts to look like an internet commercial, either Dennis or one of the board moderators (myself included) will pull the plug.
As it stands in my eyes, a need was expressed, a solution was offered.
Subject closed!
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!
I agree with BD. If it gets out of hand Team Cub will ensure it gets back on track. I really don't think it is out of hand yet, and is just chit chat between friends expressing and fulfilling a particular need. All the members on this board to date have shown a remarkable ability to stay on track and not stray from the rules, and I believe that is not about to change.
As BD aptly stated - expressed, fulfilled - subject closed
Confusion breeds Discussion which breeds Knowledge which breeds Confidence which breeds Friendship
You got that right Rudi, Being a moderater on this board is almost equivalent to being a Maytag Repairman.
Then came Bronson
OK, so now maybe I feel a little guilty about a previous comment I made regarding someone trying to make a buck. Well, first of all there's nothing wrong with that. Second, I didn't mean to give the wrong impression.
While WK may not be making a buck, his machinist friend is certainly not doing it for free - and I wouldn't expect him to.
I know well what is involved in manufacture of machine parts. For those of you who don't know, the going rate for machine-time per hour is anywhere from $55-$90 per hour. If this guy can machine these blocks and sell them to interested parties for $50, trust me he's not getting rich.
I have it on good authority that same part could be made in Lithuania for about $0.78 each, if you want 10,000 of them or more. That's why manufacturing jobs are disappearing from the USA faster than ever.

The Effingham County Sheriff's Office says a man hospitalized is a person of interest in connection with an overnight house fire.
It happened shortly before 10 p.m. Tuesday at a home in the 1600 block of Sandhill Road off of U.S. 80. near the Ogeechee River.
The back of the home suffered significant damage and the roof was destroyed.
"The home was vacant at the time but it appears to be arson," said David Ehsanipoor, spokesman with the Effingham County Sheriff's Office. "One person drove to another location in Chatham County and requested EMS for smoke inhalation. The unidentified man is a person of interest and has been taken to an area hospital."
The fire remains under investigation by the Effingham County Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigations Division.

Tampa police say they've confiscated bricks and pipes from a rooftop in Tampa, and discovered what they say is "anarchist" graffiti.
The anonymous symbol was spray painted, along with the number "99" in red paint.
All of it was found on top of a building at 1000 North Florida Ave., which is at the corner of Florida Avenue and Tyler Street.
"We are appreciative that the business owner called us," Tampa Police Chief Jane Castor said Tuesday afternoon.
"Finding those items for us was not a surprise," she added. "We are just pleased to see the communications process worked the way it did."
Bill Warner is a private investigator who tracks and researches radical groups all over the world. He says the stockpile is a sign of trouble ahead.
"These are tactics terrorists use in the Middle East. They will hide bricks in piles in buildings and so forth. They will move into the area start their little protests. Then they will find their pile of bricks and pipes and start busting out windows," Warner said.
Castor said what's most important is making sure none of the items is used to harm anyone during the RNC.
For months, FOX 13 has been reporting about the Black Bloc, an anarchist group that causes chaos and havoc around the world. The FBI has labeled them domestic terrorists who are against government, corporate America, and law enforcement.
Recently cyber hackers known as Anonymous sent out a call to action for Black Blockers to unite at the RNC. Their message to Chief Castor and the media was simple: they're coming to Tampa to fight for what they say are their rights.

What happened in Sen. Phil Berger's past to cause him to despise public school teachers? One has to wonder where Berger got his "facts" for his statements in the Nov. 5 news article "Teachers 'walk-in' at schools."
Most folks didn't see the teacher "walk-in" as a bully tactic and did not see student safety being put at risk. Moreover, the NCAE is not a union and was not using the "walk-in" as a way to "gin up" (Berger's phrase) membership. Nor did the "walk-in" have anything to do with asking for inflated salaries for its executives. When the NCAE got wind of a teacher movement to stage a walkout, it wisely cautioned against this and encouraged teachers to "walk in" instead.
Berger chastises educators for playing politics with education and using our children as political pawns. Does he not see that the most recent legislative actions against teachers (spearheaded by him) are the height of "playing politics" with our public schools? His personal war against teachers blatantly uses the schools and our children as political pawns to "gin up" the radical right base that would love to see public schools fail.
I am not a teacher or employed by the NCAE. I am a grandmother who supports our public schools.

A veteran Sonoma County sheriff's deputy fired eight rounds at a Santa Rosa eighth-grader walking down the street with a BB gun that resembled an AK-47 assault rifle, striking the teen seven times, according to the preliminary findings from an autopsy that took place Thursday.
Two of the wounds on the body of 13-year-old Andy Lopez were fatal, Santa Rosa Police Lt. Paul Henry said in a statement.
The preliminary findings came two days after Lopez was shot Tuesday afternoon as he walked through his southwest Santa Rosa neighborhood carrying a toy gun in his left hand. The airsoft gun, which fires small plastic BBs, was designed to look like a high-powered military assault rifle.
March, Vigil For Andy Lopez 10.24.13
For the second straight evening, several hundred people marched Thursday in Santa Rosa, many holding white balloons, to demonstrate their support for the Lopez family.
Led by Lopez's father and mother, demonstrators marched almost 2 1/2 hours from a Roseland shopping center to City Hall and then back to the site on Moorland Avenue where Lopez died.
The tragic incident unfolded Tuesday afternoon when two deputies on routine patrol saw Lopez carrying what they thought was a dangerous rifle, Santa Rosa police said.
The deputies drove up behind the boy, stopped their car and ordered him to drop the weapon, Santa Rosa police said.
The veteran deputy told investigators that Lopez began turning toward him and raised the gun's barrel in his direction, Henry said.
The senior deputy mistook the BB gun for an authentic assault rifle and opened fire, Henry said. The shots were fired within 10 seconds of the deputies' first report of a suspicious person, according to a timeline released by Santa Rosa police.

Classy & Elegant This dress was not something that I had in mind when shopping for bridesmaid dresses; however, when I saw my sis-in-law walk out in it, I knew it was perfect for my wedding! None of the other dresses quite fit the bill, but this one was so beautiful. It is a bit simple, but then we decided to add a black sash with silver crystals on it for the maids, and a red sash with silver crystals for the maid-of-honor, and it took the dress to a whole different level! I'm so excited to see my girls in the finished look for my BIG DAY! May 7, 2013
LOVE IT! I was looking for a vow renewal dress (10 yrs) and I tried everything on in bridal dresses and nothing caught my eye and then my sister should me this dress! I loved it fit perfect! I can't wait to wear it =) March 30, 2013
Classy formal dress! I was looking for a Mother of the Bride dress that was formal but not frumpy or old looking. This dress caught my eye! It's form-fitting but not tight and the style is classy but current. I love the detail of the lace and the way it looks from the back. The length is perfect for strappy sandals to complete the look! But take note: The dress tends to run small so buy one size larger for a perfect fit. I absolutely love it! March 1, 2013
Stunning This dress is beautiful, the pictures do not do it justice. I'm a bigger girl and it fit perfect - no stomach hanging out and it just looked awesome. The back is the best part, so elegant January 17, 2013

(WMC-TV) - The Memphis Grizzlies are headed to Oklahoma City to face the Thunder after a 118-105 victory against the Los Angeles Clippers secured them a spot in the Western Conference semifinals.
The game starts at noon Sunday.
The Grizzlies and Thunder have a history, having met two years ago in the playoffs. The series went seven games, including a triple-overtime thriller at FedExForum.
The Thunder ultimately won that series and faced the eventual champion Dallas Mavericks in the conference final.
The slogan "We don't bluff" -- seen on growl towels at Friday night's game -- was born after an altercation between Zach Randolph and Thunder center Kendrick Perkins.
The two exchanged words and tried to confront each other during the fourth quarter. Both were ejected, and Randolph approached Perkins near the locker room..
He was fined $25,000 by the league after the incident.
Tony Allen coined another popular Grizzlies motto, "All heart, grit and grind" in a postgame interview after scored he 27 points and shut down star forward Kevin Durant in a come-from-behind win against the Thunder.
Memphis this season has won two of its three games against the Thunder. The only loss came February 1, the day after a trade sent former leading scorer Rudy Gay to the Toronto Raptors.
Tayshaun Prince, Austin Daye and Ed Davis had not yet joined the team.
Though point guard Russell Westbrook is out for the year with a meniscus injury, the Thunder are a solid team under Durant's leadership.
The Grizzlies return to FedExForum Saturday May 11 for Game 3. The game, which will air on ESPN, tips off at 4 p.m.
Tickets for both games three and four go on sale Monday morning at noon.
The team will host another "swag pickup" Monday from 11 a.m. until 6 p.m. Headbands, posters and sunglasses will be distributed on the FedExForum plaza.
The University of Memphis has rescheduled spring commencement for May 12, with ceremonies at noon and 4:00 p.m.

Alabama Crimson Tide first fielded a college football team in 1892. First a member of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association and then the Southern Conference, the Crimson Tide won 4 conference championships before joining the SEC in 1933. The list of great players who've worn the crimson and white seems endless. Shaun Alexander, Cornelius Bennett, Ozzie Newsome, Kenny Stabler, and Joe Namath are just a few. And who can forget the 1992 season under coach Gene Stallings when the Crimson Tide finished the regular season 11-0, winning the SEC Championship and then defeating the #1 ranked Miami Hurricanes in the Sugar Bowl 34-13 to win the national title? Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Alabama Crimson Tide football tickets.
Coming off back-to-back national championships, the Alabama Crimson Tide are poised to make a run at their third consecutive title and fourth in five years. With Nick Saban at the helm, the Crimson Tide have become the top college football program in the nation and they don't look to be slowing down. The Tides had nine players selected in the NFL Draft, but they will be returning star quarterback AJ McCarron and the very talented sophomore Amari Cooper. The wide receiver scored 11 touchdowns in his freshman season. The talent doesn't stop as the defense will be bringing back eight starters.
Alabama will start their title defense against Virginia Tech on August 31st in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game at Atlanta's Georgia Dome. The schedule doesn't get any easier as the SEC will once again be one of the tougher conferences in college football. The Tide will travel to Texas A&M and Auburn while hosting Arkansas and the talented LSU Tigers.
Check out our Alabama Crimson Tide Season Preview History page for previews of previous Crimson Tide seasons.
Alabama Crimson Tide plays its home games at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The stadium has a capacity of more than 92,000 and is the 7th largest college stadium in America. The Crimson Tide's record at Bryant-Denny is the best home record in the NCAA. Watching a game there with nearly 100,000 fans cheering on the Alabama Crimson Tide is an incredible tradition to be a part of. The Alabama Crimson Tide home bench is on the Bryant-Denny Stadium sideline with sections A-N. Bryant-Denny Stadium parking information is covered in our Crimson Tide event guide.
Auburn Tigers, LSU Tigers, Tennessee Volunteers
The biggest football game in the state of Alabama, the Iron Bowl pits two football powerhouses against each other every year. Playing for the Sportsmanship Trophy and a whole lot of state pride, they have met 77 times and Alabama currently leads overall. There's no love lost between fans and teams, and it's a game that any college football fan would be lucky to attend.
Two giants of the SEC meeting up every year in either Tiger Stadium or Bryant-Denny Stadium will deliver considerable hype – and these two schools tend to exceed expectations every time. We've seen #1 vs. #2 games in the regular season and as a national title game. Bama leads the series all time by a considerable margin, but LSU always comes to play and outside of the last two seasons, the Tigers have had the upper hand post-2000.
One of the fiercest rivalries in all college football, Tennessee and Alabama battle in a game named the "Third Saturday in October". These two state schools in neighboring states have played each other since 1901. These two programs both sport tremendous fan bases, so the passion in the crowd on game day is unsurpassed by other SEC rivalry games. Take the opportunity to see the Vols take on Bama, a truly unique experience in college football.
If you're going to discuss "dynasties" in NCAA College Football, you won't name more than 1-2 teams before uttering the words Crimson Tide. The Alabama Crimson Tide have won three of the last four BCS National Titles and over 20 SEC Championships. They also have the most NCAA All-Time Bowl appearances.
Alabama's football program is one of the most distinguished in college football history, so a Bama home game is rich in tradition. Start the day near the Quad with the Walk of Champions, where the Alabama football team exits their team buses and walks through a sea of fans into Bryant Denny Stadium. One of the best is "Rammer Jammer" which you will hear at the end of an Alabama victory.
TicketCity offers a big selection of Alabama football tickets which include some of the lowest priced seats on the market. Alabama tickets fluctuate based on demand and opponent. Marquee SEC opponents, like LSU, Florida and Georgia, can drive up home game prices. While cheap tickets are more plentiful for unranked, non-conference opponents. Those early season games may offer best opportunity to purchase Alabama tickets near face value.
The Houndstooth bar, which is located on "the strip" just minutes from Bryant Denny Stadium, offers a great view of the history of Alabama football. Pop in next store to grab some barbecue at Big Bad Wolves BBQ.
The Crimson Tide 2014-2015 football schedule is listed as soon as it is announced by the SEC. Alabama plays in the SEC West, which means games against LSU, Texas A&M, Arkansas and Ole Miss. Game times are announced by the SEC as soon as the TV schedule is set. Alabama's home opener is typically one of the most popular games. They also play Auburn in the Iron Bowl. If you are looking for Crimson Tide news or scores, then visit our partners at CBS Sports. They are also a good source for the official Alabama Crimson Tide team roster.
Dreamland BBQ is an experience any visitor to Tuscaloosa must take in. Dreamland has franchised into other cities, but the original location only serves ribs, rib sandwiches and white bread. The ribs and barbecue sauce is why people make the trip.
Alabama Crimson Tide season tickets are available to buy until kickoff of their home opener. Check our listings above or call us if you would like to purchase Alabama football season tickets. Let us know if you want a particular section at Bryant-Denny Stadium.
The concert was fun and the tickets arrived three weeks before our flight!Melanie - London, England

Yes…everybody was waiting for it now it seems it will be something we will see later this year.
ARRI will show (or preview for that matter) a 6K ARRI ALEXA at NAB this year…. finally! (see there is a 6k tag on that ALEXA Prototype right there!!!)
Now, usually I don't post about camera news and stuff but this one is a big one and as you might now I'm kinda a fan of the "original" ALEXA and the Image quality it's delivering.
Now do i think the "old" ALEXA is not good enough anymore? No, it still is a pretty good Camera, especially for TV Production. But for the future of Cinema it might be a good step to upgrade "a bit" ;)
Now it seems you will get a pretty good "downrez" 6K to 2K ProRes "option" with this new one that might be a good upgrade for the TV world. But 4K is coming at some point if you are like it or not.
So here are some of the specs that are known so far:
ARRI 65mm format ALEV IV Plus CMOS with Global Shutter
6144 x 3160 rez
ProRes 4444 (only 2k?)
Frame Rates:
ARRIRAW 0.75 – 60 fps
ProRes 0.75 – 120 fps (2k)
Dynamic Range:
14+ Stops
Base EI 800, sensitivity settings from EI 200 to EI 6.400
more specs will be released at NAB.
UPDATE: look at the post date … yep it's April 1st ;)

When Joshua Gilman of Springfield got home from work last week, he had an unwelcome visitor on his front porch.
"I saw something moving on my porch and I saw it was a fox," he said. "My first reaction was to yell at it, 'Get out of here!'"
After multiple attempts to scare the animal failed, Gilman went to his neighbor's house and returned with an ice chopper. He didn't intend to kill the animal, but rather shoo it away.
"By the time I got to the corner of the house, he was there. Instead of running away, he decided he was going to attack," Gilman said. "I basically jumped back and swung the ice chopper and luckily I stunned it and ended up killing it on my porch."
"It is certainly a public health risk. I think if it wasn't a concern, we wouldn't be sending in the head or carcass for testing," said Greg Eckhardt, a Vermont game warden.
The fox at Gilman's house did test positive for rabies. According to the Health Department, there have been hundreds of cases of animal rabies reported throughout Vermont during the past 10 years.
Bait dropping programs in New York, Vermont and New Hampshire are aimed at eradicating the virus. But despite that, Vermont cases in 2012 were slightly above normal, according to the Health Department. If contracted by humans through a bite, it can be deadly.
"The federal government is still trying to address this because it is a public safety issue and that was targeting raccoons and that was up on the Canadian border," Eckhardt said.
Eckhardt has dealt with several rabies cases during his 15 years as a game warden. His advice-- if you see a suspicious animal, call authorities. And keep your pets up to date with their vaccines. But the signs of an infected animal, like the case in Springfield, are not always clear.
"It didn't have any signs of being sick or ill," Gilman said. "It wasn't foaming at the mouth. It didn't have any sores on it. It actually looked healthy, but the behavior was very classic, rabid animal behavior."
Gilman says he's telling his story so people are more aware and to offer a little advice of his own.
"Don't do what I did," he advised. "Stay away."
An encounter with a rabid fox that was a little too close for comfort.
Gilman says he did end up getting the rabies shots, despite not being bitten, just as a precaution.

One bakery, two warehouse distribution centers and additional depots and stores in Iowa are among the casualties from the Hostess closure which was announced on Friday morning.
Several truck drivers for the company have been laid off as a result.
"I went to work, got done with my route and was notified that my job was done," said James Gibbons of Evansdale. Gibbons has been a route driver for Hostess for two years, delivering Hostess brand products to Cedar Falls and New Hampton grocery stores.
"When I heard the news that it was going to end, it really hit me," he said. "It really hit me that this is really my last day."
Danny Derifield of Waterloo has been a distribution driver at Hostess for 27-years.
"I came here everyday faithfully, just like every other employee," he said. "We did what we had to do to make a job."
Derifield said he and a handful of other truck drivers will be employed through the beginning of December while they transport remaining Hostess product from stores in Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
"I'm going to miss the people. I really truly am," he said.
Nationwide, 33 bakeries, 565 distribution centers and 570 bakery outlets will be shutting their doors for good.

Police have released a sketch of a man who sexually assaulted one woman and beat another this month on the Northwest Side.
The man first ran up to a female walking near North Oak Park and West Belmont avenues and forced her to accompany him to a vehicle about 9:45 a.m. on April 13, according to a community alert from Area North detectives.
The suspect said he had a knife and a gun, although he never displayed a weapon, and then sexually assaulted the woman, police said.
About 45 minutes later, the same man is believed to have tried to force another woman into a vehicle, police said. He did not sexually assault the second woman, but did hit and kick her in the face.
He is described as a 28- to 35-year-old black man with a medium complexion, short black hair, light brown eyes and chipped or crooked teeth, police said. He is about 5-feet-10 to 6-foot and 165 to 175 pounds.

SWANTON, OH (Toledo News Now) - The Swanton Fire Department was awarded a FEMA grant for more than $80,000, which will cover a costly upgrade that was due.
"It's absolutely critical that when the firefighters are doing their job they're not worried about their gear. The gear is working with them and not against them." Said Steve Harting from Phoenix Safety Outfitters.
Representatives from phoenix safety outfitters spent the day in Swanton explaining the new gear, and taking measurements.
"The gear they're going with has a moisture management system in it and it is very comfortable, lightweight gear." Harting said.
"The new gear its safer for the firefighters a little lighter so it's less fatigue and ultimately better for the community because we can respond quicker and safer." Explained Swanton Fire Chief Chad Smith.
All of new gear should be in and ready to use by the middle of May.

Jerry Jones Says Deion In His Prime Could Cover Calvin Johnson
by Patrick Imig
Cold Hard Football Facts' RoboCop Fan Club Vice President (@patrickimig)
Why the owner of the Cowboys thinks this is a good conversation is beyond me. As the story goes ...
"Deion has such catch-up speed and he had real good center-field ability, and I mean that ... in (a) football sense. He could really play the ball, and he had such ability to get into position to play the ball. Now, you're talking about the greatest cover guy maybe that's played this game. I've seen where he's been declared the greatest cover guy. Hall of Famer. But I do think he could do a real good job on Johnson. Johnson's going to get some probably, but I think he could do a great job. Deion's a great player."
In Jerry World, what Jerry says goes ... even if it doesn't stick.
The reality is that Jones is doing his current defense no favors.
Reality #2 is that there isn't a human being on this planet that can cover Calvin Johnson.
Instead of bringing up Hall of Fame players from the Cowboys' past, Jones should probably seek the help of some fictional creatures. Here are a few entities that could potentially cover Megatron:
RoboCop - The closest thing to the Calvin Johnson species, RoboCop has great closing speed and can shoot down opposing quarterbacks from the secondary. This would strongly disrupt the flow and rhythm of Matt Stafford and Calvin Johnson's passing game. Of course, given RoboCop's Detroit roots, he might not want to stop the Lions.
Stay Puft' Marshmallow Man - He doesn't have great speed or good hands, but his mere size allows him to provide blanket coverage on Johnson and all Lions players.
Predator - I like Predator's chances the best. The ability to go invisible makes him a scoring threat on the defensive side of the ball every time the ball is snapped. Predator could stop Calvin Johnson simply by lining up in the Lions backfield unannounced and unnoticed and sack Stafford before the ball is even released.
He also has the arsenal that RoboCop possesses, has great leaping ability and can cover the field like a centerfielder much better than Deion Sanders ever could.

Four-year jail sentence for 'prolific' Blackburn crack dealer
4:00pm Thursday 4th October 2012 in News By Lisa Woodhouse, Assistant picture editor
A DRUG dealer who peddled crack cocaine throughout Blackburn has been sentenced to four years in jail.
Sher Khan Sajawal, 37, of Kempton Rise, Blackburn, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply class A drugs on Monday.
It was the sixth day of a trial at Liverpool Crown Court.
Sajawal was finally arrested in October last year after a lengthy investigation by Lancashire Police's eastern division's targeted crime team during which a team of officers gathered evidence of Sajawal's involvement in the supply of class A drugs.
Detective Inspector Mark Winstanley said: "Sajawal is a prolific drug dealer who brought Class A drugs onto the streets of Blackburn.
"It was an operation we ran within the division, acting on intelligence we gained from our enquiries.
"I hope residents are reassured by the action taken. Drug dealing blights people's lives and we will continue to do everything within our power to target those involved and bring them to justice."
He said Sajawal was convicted in January 2003 for supplying class A drugs to undercover police officers. At that time he received three and a half years imprisonment.
DI Winstanley said: "As a result of our investigations in 2011, the initial arrest came on the back of a drug deal he was observed making on October 26 in the Audley Range area of Blackburn."
A quantity of drugs and cash was seized from his possession at the time.

Who is ready for a bunch of friendlies? Too bad because that is what you are getting. They have already started, with Seattle and Philadelphia playing Premier League teams and by next week seemingly every MLS team will be playing a friendly somewhere. Oh, and there's that MLS All-Star thing, which is the most glorified of boring friendlies ever. If you like real matches, get them while you can.
New York Red Bulls Vs. Philadelphia Union
Saturday, 2:30 p.m. ET, ESPN
MLS needs to invent a MLS Coach of the Half-Season so that John Hackworth can be recognized for the brilliant job he's done. The Union somehow look like a legitimate professional soccer team. Nobody thought that was possible just six weeks ago.
Pick: Draw, 2-2.
Columbus Crew vs. D.C. United
Saturday, 7:30 p.m. ET, MLS Live
D.C. is no longer tops in the East. Luckily for them, Columbus has struggled of late and are plummeting down the table. Maybe it's back to the top for D.C.
Pick: D.C., 2-1.
Houston Dynamo vs. Montreal Impact
Saturday, 8:30 p.m. ET, MLS Live
The Dynamo are heating up and have jumped up to fourth in the East, just five points from the top. But can they do it without Geoff Cameron? This is basically a whole new team in the post-Cameron era. Then again, the Impact actually are a whole new team this year and not a very good one at that.
Pick: Houston, 2-0.
Sporting Kansas City vs. New England Revolution
Saturday, 8:30 p.m. ET, MLS Live
It's a cushy life atop the table, unless you are only one point up and coming off of a loss. That's where Sporting sits right now, but they get to play the Revs this weekend, who are 1-9-1 away from Gillette Stadium.
Pick: Kansas City, 3-1.
FC Dallas vs. Portland Timbers
Saturday, 9:00 p.m. ET, MLS Live
Not to bring up the tired promotion/relegation discussion, but can both of these teams find a new league? Semi-pro would be appropriate.
Pick: Nobody.
LA Galaxy vs. Chivas USA
Saturday, 10:00 p.m. ET, Telefutura
We will not refer to this rivalry by its contrived stupid name. We will not refer to this rivalry by its contrived stupid name. We will not refer to this rivalry by its contrived stupid name. The Galaxy own the SuperClasico. Damnit.
Pick: LA, 2-1.
Real Salt Lake vs. Colorado Rapids
Saturday, 10:00 p.m. ET, MLS Live
Salt Lake is still in second place despite their recent struggles. There is no positive spin for Colorado.
Pick: Salt Lake, 3-0.
Vancouver Whitecaps vs. San Jose Earthquakes
Sunday, 7:00 p.m., MLS Live
Short rest on the road against a solid team that has been sitting at home sounds like the perfect chance for the Quakes to get upset. That means they will probably go down by two goals then come back to earn a draw. San Jose are the troll kings of MLS.
Pick: Draw, 2-2.

Radar, time domain reflectometry added to line of level measurement products
AMETEK Drexelbrook® has added the DR7000 Series (Radar) and DR7100 Series (Time Domain Reflectometry) to its family of radar-based level measurement instruments. Both Series incorporate state-of-the-art features and components, including an easy-to-navigate display with choice of touchscreens (tank illustration, bargraph, oscilliscope, signal and reflectivity screen), easy installation and set-up. Users simply fit the 2-wire level gauges to a tank or storage vessel, wire them up and turn them on. The gauge tests itself to make certain its electronics are working perfectly. An installation Wizard walks the user through a series of simple questions to define the tank and product measured. The DR7000 Series utilizes Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) technology that offers superior signal processing capabilities. The DR 7100 Series relies on Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) technology, which uses an electromagnetic wave guided by a metallic rod or flexible cable to determine the distance, level and volume. TDR-based level sensors use less energy than airborne radar technologies and are especially suited for vessels with internal obstructions. Stop by Booth 934 to view more products by AMETEK Drexelbrook.

Let's say Larry does indeed want to go to Philly; he can't because he's under contract. However, because he is a Bobcat, we will happily trade him to you for the right price...
Fot those of you who follow the NFL, John Gruden was traded from the Oakland Raiders to the Tampa Bay Bucs for 2 first round draft picks. Why shouldn't we look to do the same thing if Larry wants out?
True, we won't get as high a price for Larry as Gruden pulled, but how about the following trade:
Larry Brown and Diop
Speights and a 2nd rounder
LB for their 1st round pick (lottery protected)

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a therapy sometimes used to treat localized or regional pain. During TENS therapy, electrodes deliver electrical impulses to nearby nerve pathways — which can help control or relieve some types of pain.
Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain in the muscles, ligaments and tendons, as well as fatigue and multiple tender points — places on the body where slight pressure causes pain. Since the pain of fibromyalgia isn't limited to a specific area, TENS therapy isn't likely to be an effective fibromyalgia treatment.
Fibromyalgia is often treated with various medications to relieve pain and improve sleep. Options may include pain relievers, antidepressants and muscle relaxants. Exercise and stress reduction, as well as healthy sleep and eating habits, are important as well. Cognitive-behavioral therapy — working with a mental-health professional to learn effective ways of thinking about and dealing with your condition — also may be recommended.
If you have fibromyalgia and your treatment plan isn't relieving your pain, consult your doctor. He or she may adjust your medications or offer additional treatment options.

The anti-imperialist left, in the West at least, is painfully divided over the NATO-led intervention in Libya. On the one hand, such commentators as Paul Woodward, Gilbert Achcar, Phil Weiss, and me, believe the intervention is the least worst option, that there was no better alternative. On the other hand, John Pilger, Mahmoud Mamdani and many others, are wary of a new Iraq and oppose Western intervention on blanket principle.
Both positions are legitimate. Although I disagree in this case, I'm very pleased that the general gut response — if we must work by gut responses — is against intervention. But unfortunately a number of lesser figures, emotional oppositionists of the sort who qualmlessly rearrange reality to fit their personal agendas, have willfully ignored facts on the Libyan ground, and even stooped so low as to slander the revolutionary Libyan people.
Some say NATO is interfering in a civil war, that Libya is split between east and west, that Tripoli stands firm with Gaddafi. These people fail to understand the overwhelming unpopularity of Gaddafi's capricious regime. In the first days of the revolution, the regime lost control of most areas in the west as well as the east, including suburbs of Tripoli. Protesters marching on Green Square (also known as "Martyrs Square") were driven back by machine gun and artillery fire. Gaddafi is currently keeping the capital quiet by mass arrests, rooftop snipers, and roving jeeps of weapon-wielding thugs.
Some people describe the free Libyans as mere 'so-called' rebels. If they were real freedom-fighters, these people argue, they'd be able to take over the country without foreign help. Their acceptance of intervention proves them to be CIA stooges, agents of imperialism, traitors.
And so they repeat regime propaganda. They didn't repeat Tunisian or Egyptian state propaganda during the revolutions in those countries, so why is Libya different? One reason is the inexplicable belief among some that 'Brother Leader' Gaddafi is a socialist, anti-imperialist hero — against all the evidence, simply because 'the empire' is acting against him now.
At a crucial stage in their revolutions, the Tunisian and Egyptian armies stood with the people. Much of Libya's army did so too, but Gaddafi had taken care not to build a serious army, which left the people largely unprotected from attack. When they called for help — from the Arabs, Europe, anyone — Western 'dissenters' held their noses.
The lesson for Arab revolutionaries seems to be, Don't Lose. If you lose, Western leftists will stop regarding you as exotically glorious, and turn on you in their disappointment. A lot of these people suffer from exaggeratedly romantic notions of people power. The only person I met in Cairo who unabashedly opposed the intervention was an American leftist, who told me she had "absolute faith in the ability of the Libyan people to defeat Gaddafi's forces." I'm glad she was honest enough to use the word 'faith'. In the secular world, might usually does conquer right; majorities are very often subjugated by tooled-up minorities. Zionist Jews are a tiny minority in the Middle East, yet they dominate by force. In Libya, enthusiastic but untrained civilians, even with the aid of defected military units, are no match for Gaddafi's well-armed, well-trained special forces.
Another frequently-heard line is that there were options other than foreign intervention. The rebels should have negotiated with Gaddafi.
I would suggest that the propagators of this fantasy don't know much about police states, and haven't been following news from Libya. Gaddafi murdered thousands before the intervention. Over 90 were killed in a barrage on Benghazi in the hours before the air strikes began. Gaddafi has a history of large-scale slaughter — 1200 unarmed prisoners were massacred at Abu Slim in 1996 — and this time he'd explicitly promised to kill as many protesting Libyans as he could, "to the last man, the last woman, the last child." He called the protesters cockroaches, rats, cats and mice, children drugged on alcohol and hallucinogens, servants of Italy, Britain, America and Israel, Islamists and separatists. He promised to burn 'the green and the dry' (an Arabic expression which means to destroy absolutely everything), and to "cleanse Libya house by house."
This is what he is doing in the cities under his control right now. He turned first Zawiya and now Misrata into south Lebanon or Gaza, besieging the inhabitants, slaughtering them with cluster bombs and missiles. Yet some outsiders laugh off Gaddafi's threats as rhetoric, or pretend they didn't hear.
There was no other option for the Libyans than to accept the intervention. They can't be blamed for planning poorly — they had no opportunity to plan because they lived under a dictatorship crueler and far more total than Mubarak's in Egypt. And they didn't expect the revolution. Inspired by the rebellious neighbors, a few protested the arrest of a lawyer. The protests spread so rapidly because of Gaddafi's ultra-violent response.
The people revolted en-masse because they were being attacked. The revolution was popular and spontaneous. It was not, as Gaddafi-supporters assert, an armed insurrection. In Benghazi and elsewhere civilians swarmed military bases, took on snipers with their bare chests, overcame bullets by absorbing them. One man filled his car with petrol and drove into a gun emplacement. The next morning they found themselves, unexpectedly, free. Until Gaddafi's forces recovered.
Too many outsiders speak from a position of zero responsibility. They won't be pinned down to answer the obvious question: what should have been done? If Gaddafi had got into Benghazi and done what the Syrian regime did in Hama in 1982, or what the Iraqi regime did to the Iraqi south in 1991, wouldn't we now be condemning Western inaction?
Even if it's the least worst option, foreign intervention remains problematic. As military stalemate sets in the danger of mission creep escalates, even to troops on the ground (which I would oppose). But Libya is not Iraq. The left fears it might be because the left has an oil obsession — but the 2003 Iraq invasion was more about the Israel lobby than Big Oil. Post-war, countries which didn't take part in the invasion are winning more contracts than countries that did.
In any case, Gaddafi did great business with the West, doing oil deals, buying weapons, as well as torturing rendered suspects on America's behalf. I would expect any future Libyan government to also do business, and with the Arabs, China and India too, I hope in a much more accountable manner.
Libya isn't Afghanistan either. Politically and financially, America has just lost two wars, and knows it. America would lose in Libya too if it tried to occupy the country or intervene directly in post-Gaddafi politics.
So am I saying the West is involved for purely altruistic reasons? Of course not. All powers act according to their perceived interests. Britain, France, Qatar and the others are not exceptions to the rule. For instance:
- Migration bothers Fortress Europe, including the prospect of a million refugees from Gaddafi's repression.
- The specter of a long-term collapsed state across the Mediterranean, a country Gaddafi would never again be able to control absolutely.
- The fear of the diversions the unhinged, half-finished dictator might plot were he given the time.
- The desire for it to seem, at home and in the Arab world, as if Britain and France are on the side of freedom (a doomed desire).
- Finally, the intervention is an early attempt to make friends and influence people.
I hope the revolution continues and develops and deepens after Gaddafi. I hope that once Libya gets on its feet it will act with independence. There are already signs that the people are tiring of their current representatives in the Transitional Council, who have been slow to organize, many of whom are tainted by cooperation with Gaddafi's regime. The extent to which Libyans live up to the coming historical challenge will be the Libyans' business. At least if they are alive they'll be able to try.
Alongside Britain and France, Lebanon –with Hizbullah in government — co-sponsored UN Resolution 1973. Hassan Nasrallah's later speech on the issue contained warnings concerning Western intentions and reminders that the West cares nothing for the suffering of Arabs in Palestine. But Nasrallah did not condemn the intervention. This is because he's a realist as well as an idealist. He knows a revolution has no chance when all the revolutionaries are dead.
Of course, it would have been best if the Egyptian army had intervened, or perhaps a coalition of free Arabs from Tunisia and Egypt. But the Egyptian army is needed at home, and may be in a precarious state internally. The police are still sulking, so the army are policing the streets. Plus there are several hundred thousand Egyptian workers still in Libya, who Egyptians fear would be potential hostages. So those who look forward to a regional security policy which will keep the West out have to be realistic and patient for the time being. The revolutions are ongoing, and in most places have not yet reached the first stage of success.
I've recently returned from Egypt, where people are living the revolution rather than talking the talk. I met many who wished that Egypt had gone into Libya (Egypt probably is arming and training the revolutionaries now). I didn't meet anybody who was clearly against the intervention, except the American lady I mentioned earlier.
Meanwhile, some Western commentators are so dazzled by the imperial bogeyman in Libya that they fail to notice Bahrain, where Israel, Wahhabi sectarianism, corrupt Arab princes and US military strategists are once again agreed on the need to crush a people. A country in which the West's fingers, most obviously in the form of the US Fifth Fleet, are far more deeply dug.

if you just do barbell presses adding some dumbells to it might. i do shoulders after bench and I actually get really sore while in the midst of the work-out... but no matter how hard i go on my shoulders they don't get sore then ext day either same as you. which sucks cause mentally i equate soreness with shocking the body into doing something... anything
My shoulders are the second worst for aching, the first being my lower back.
try doing some lighter work and really focusing on contracting the shoulders rather than the tris.

My shoulders don't get sore either, so I just go by the amount of weight I can press overhead.... as long as that number is going up, I'm fine.
As to the workout plan you listed though ~ is that 14 set list all done on the same day?
If so, why not cut the sets in half, and double the intensity?
Does this pose make my camera look big?

As is so often repeated these days, soreness is not necessarily an indicator of growth or even a good workout. Training for soreness should not be your goal. As the other fellow said, progress in loads used, assuming consistent form and cadence is the best indicator.
