Optimistic Baker says SF still special
Reds manager receives warm welcome from Giants fans
SAN FRANCISCO -- Dusty Baker managed the Giants to seven winning records and three postseason appearances in 10 years with them. Yet San Francisco's winningest manager believes that his best efforts at steering a club await him.If so, that's good news for the Cincinnati Reds, whom Baker joined this season after taking a one-year break from managing. "You learn to control your emotions a little better," Baker said Friday, explaining why added experience should generate enhanced results. "You learn to trust your insides and instincts a little more. I think you're in tune with yourself and the game and everything else." Baker had little trouble keeping his feelings in check while returning to San Francisco for the first time with the Reds. The experience wasn't as bittersweet as it was in 2003, Baker's first of four seasons with the Chicago Cubs. At that point, Baker was still coping with the transition from the Giants. "It's a little less emotional because I was playing against all the guys on my team, that we just went to the World Series with [in 2002]," Baker said. "Now, there's only a few guys I know over there." Yet Baker, who still has a home in Northern California, readily acknowledged that the Bay Area and San Francisco remain special for him. Reminded that plenty of fans still love him -- he received warm applause from the AT&T Park crowd when he was shown on the Diamond Vision video board before the fifth inning -- Baker replied, "I love them. ... The City's a very unique place."
|The Giants struck out 11 batters on Thursday, earning fans an $11 discount on tickets for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

Relax into the quiet off-the-beaten path atmosphere of Grand Turk, most famous for being where John Glenn's capsule splashed down after his trip to the moon. You'll want to splash down a few rum punches or local beers and indulge in the delicacy that has drawn divers to the area for decades: Queen Conch. A visit to the National Museum will quench your curiosity for history as well as satisfy your desire for the perfect souvenir. Look for shells, straw trinket baskets and other handmade items.
The following Shore Excursions are available for this port on this cruise, and may be reserved beginning 240 days before the cruise begins for guests receiving Concierge amenities, and 180 days before the cruise begins for all other guests. Guests receiving Concierge amenities will receive a 5% discount off of the prices shown below for Regent Choice tours.
Begin with a scenic drive along the coast and across the island to the other side. See the Governor's Beach, the local airport, and one of Grand Turk's natural Salinas that has been newly renovated to show visitors to the island how Salt is obtained in its natural form. Salt was once Grand Turk's main source of income.
Drive past the charming little city of Cockburn Town, the administrative and political capital of the Turks & Caicos Islands before reaching the Grand Turk Indigenous Horse Shelter where your tour begins. Once mounted on your horse, you will go for a leisurely walk along the beach while enjoying the view of the crystal clear Atlantic Ocean. Learn about the history of the catchment area that can be seen in the distance before your swim in the ocean with the horses. The guides will then unsaddle your mounts and prepare them for the swim. You then remount your horse, with a halter and enter the ocean for an unforgettable experience.
Afterwards, you can take a shower and relax, before being transferred back to the ship. On the return journey one can enjoy the view of the North Creek where many locals have their boats moored as it is the only hurricane shelter for yachts traveling between Nassau and Puerto Rico. If you are lucky you may catch a glimpse of the famous endangered pink flamingos while they bask in the sun in the many salinas on the island.

UFC 150 is set for August 11th in Denver, CO and the Mile High City will get a much-anticipated title fight. Frankie Edgar was forced into rematches twice after picking up the UFC lightweight title, and he asked and received a chance at one himself after dropping the title to Ben Henderson at UFC 144. The card added a solid co-main event this week with the addition of Donald Cerrone vs. Melvin Guillard, and there are some other good bouts. Jake Shields will make his return to 185 when he faces the streaking Ed Herman, and Yushin Okami and Rousimar Palhares will look to rebound from losses in their last bouts when they face off.
Here's how the card looks right now.
August 11th, live on PPV from Denver, CO
Donald Cerrone (18-4, 1 NC) vs. Melvin Guillard (30-10-2, 1 NC)
Yushin Okami (26-7) vs. Rousimar Palhares (14-4)
Ed Herman (20-8) vs. Jake Shields (27-6-1)

NC commission cancels Shine Fights. Damn damn damn!
It's amazing how quickly it went from an exciting event featuring the MMA debut of a former boxing world champion to the complete cancellation of the event.
I have no idea why the commission would cancel the event, but I'm sure those details will come out soon.

What's wrong Hasselblad?
The price (;Funny, I actually just got a Mamiya RB67 Pro-S a couple of weeks ago, basically the kind you're referring to with the bellows focusing. You can always look for a Mimiya 645 (6x4.5cm) which I believe focusing at the lens, although it has a focal plane shutter rather than a leaf shutter like the RB/RZ series has.
The Bronica style 6x6 TLR looks nice too. An advantage to those is that there's no mirror swing, you just hit the button and the shutter triggers. I will say, the RB67 is quite a heavy camera, especially compared to a modern DSLR with anything other than a super-zoom on it. The waist-level viewfinder is great, and unless you're doing real hurried street photography, accounting for the light fall-off and using the knob to focus is not a problem. Once I get a good neck strap and the adjustable grip, I might just try out some street photography with it, but until then I'll mostly just be on a tripod.
how much of an effect does it have?
if it was like losing two stops when fousing at 7 meters id probably steer away, how much of a nucinece would you say it is?
If I recall correctly, there's a small guide on the side of the RB67 which depends in part on the lens used, and the distance to subject (aka how much extension). If I'm remembering right, the compensation is 0.5-1 EV, I don't think it's more than that. Through experience I'll probably learn to compensate properly, and more fine grained, but if you're anywhere beyond 10-15 feet or so, on the 180mm (medium to long portrait length on the RB67) lens there's almost no extension so no compensation needed.

Everyone thought the Bills' backfield situation would be difficult to sort out. But nobody guessed that their power trio would be this ineffective.
In a narrow Week One loss to the Dolphins, the supposed "triple threat" of C.J. Spiller, Fred Jackson and Marshawn Lynch combined for 14 carries for 38 yards and zero touchdowns. So much was expected from this group, but so little was produced on the field in Week One.
The biggest disappointment was Spiller, the first-round rookie who got the start but had six yards on seven carries and eight yards on four catches. An explosive playmaker who was supposed add a dynamic weapon to the Bills' offense, Spiller was bottled up by Miami all day. Things will get better for him eventually, but owners certainly need to temper expectations and should get him on the bench for a Week Two matchup at Green Bay.
Jackson and Lynch also aren't dependable fantasy options at this point. Jackson figures to take on a larger role at some point, but he might not yet be 100 percent coming off a broken hand. And Lynch doesn't figure to get enough touches to make a significant impact.
Maybe the most surprising thing Sunday was Chan Gailey's play distribution; the Bills called 37 pass plays compared to 17 rushing attempts. Don't expect this to become a trend, as Gailey typically has been a run-first coach who plays to his strengths.

As of the time of this post our base area snow depth is 30 inches - and the storm continues to drop snow, although not as intensely as early this morning. If this is an indication of what the winter will be like, then bring on La Nina! It still takes a lot of snow to open up this early in the season - you'd have to go back to the 96-97 season to find the last time we were open in October. But forecasters say this is the type of winter that could get us open early.
Until then - we thought we'd tease you with some video that our newest team member Adam Fleck (who won the Meadows Film Festival) put together of Monday's snow. Enjoy!
We'll continue to update our conditions page, Facebook page, this blog and our snow phones as conditions change, and to keep you informed about the possibility of any early openings. Meanwhile, you can purchase your season pass here on our web site.
We're taking pictures at all four REI locations in Portland, Clackamas, Tualatin and Hillsboro this Wednesday evening from 4 to 8 PM.Picture taking in our Clackamas Office is Thursday through Saturday from 11 AM to 4 PM.And we'll be in Hood River Sunday, October 31 to take pictures at the Hood River Inn from 10 AM to 4 PM.And as always we'll be at the Portland Ski Fever Show November 5 – 7 taking pictures and hooking you up with your season pass for Mt. Hood Meadows.
Is that the same guy driving around on the ATV as last year?Oh well, those pictures get my juices flowin!JimiMeadows: Different guy - new season - new snow!
Can't wait to get up there!
Too bad you folks didn't hire me to work for ya,but after the video I figure I'll need the time to ride that la Nina out till Spring! ( and then ,ya,look for work...;)>) See ya @ The Ski @ Board Show!!Meadows: November 5 - 7 at the Expo Center. See you there!
I appreciate the historical data on opening day. Any similar chart for base and/or mid-mountain snow depth on opening day? It'd be nice to have an idea of what it takes. Thanks.Meadows: We don't have that readily available - but it would be good information to have.

Webstats for Jar file download using JWSPaul Lawbaugh Sep 16, 2011 7:31 AM (in response to Nitin Pillai)
You didn't mention what your property you are tracking is or how you are tracking it.
I'll make the assumption that this is a web site and you want to track clicks on the site.
I'll also assume you are using the standard Webtrends JavaScript tag.
In the Webtrends JS there is a function called dcsMultitrack. This function can be called on demand any time after the page has loaded and it will send all the webtrends parameters for you (plus any custom ones you want to add onto it).
You should check out the Webtrends Documentation on using multitrack but my quick and dirty example of a multitrack call:
dcsMultiTrack('DCS.dcsuri','[put the page URI here]','WT.ti','[put your description here]','WT.dl','1','[custom parameter here]','[custom parameter value here]');";
To explain those values:
- DCS.dcsuri is the parameter for specifying a URL for the link/page/button click.
- WT.ti is our page title parameter
- WT.dl means "download" and expects an integer value. A non-zero value excludes this event from the "page views" measure. Usually downloads are equal to "1".
- Lastly, you can pass custom parameters if you want to create some kind of special dimension or measure in Webtrends. It doesn't matter particularly what parameter name or value you put here, Webtrends lets you define them in the UI for whatever you name it.
Also, if you don't mind post these questions in the Data Collection section of the Developer Network so that others interested in data collection tips can follow your posts. Your question is guaranteed to be one others have.
Webstats for Jar file download using JWSNitin Pillai Sep 16, 2011 8:19 AM (in response to Paul Lawbaugh)
Thank you for your response.
I am new to WebTrends tool. We are using WebTrends Marketing Lab tool version 8.5.
I will be more detailed here. I am part of a support team in my company. We have a website which allows your to download a java swing application distribute in form of JAR file (.jar) using Java Web Start technology and a VB application (.exe).
When I go open WebTrends tool -> Analytics Reports -> Site Design -> Download Files
i see a list of Downloaded file with <file-name>.<Extension> and number of downloads, but that doesnt list .jar file. I believe it doesnt list because we are having a flow of javascript function -> JNLP -> JAR.
When I go open WebTrends tool -> Analytics Reports -> Site Design -> Accessed File Types
it does list the File type and Files accessed and here we do see the .jar file but with NO <file-name>.
1) Can get to know exactly how many times the jar file got downloaded with <file-name> ?
2) Any addtional code will help the process.

Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) — A bomber may have been seen amid the Boston Marathon revelers carrying an unusually heavy nylon bag, weighed down with shrapnel-packed explosives, the FBI has suggested. Or perhaps someone heard something beforehand as a culprit tested explosives or expressed an interest in attacking the race.
Law enforcement agencies pleaded Tuesday for the public to come forward with photos, videos or any information that might help them solve the twin bombings that killed three people and wounded more than 170 a day earlier. Investigators circulated information about the bombs, which involved kitchen pressure cookers packed with explosives, nails and other lethal shrapnel — but the FBI said nobody had claimed responsibility.
"Someone knows who did this," Richard DesLauriers, FBI agent in charge in Boston, said at a news conference where he detailed the type of clues a bomber might have left. "Importantly, the person who did this is someone's friend, neighbor, co-worker or relative."
President Barack Obama branded the attack an act of terrorism but said officials don't know "whether it was planned and executed by a terrorist organization, foreign or domestic, or was the act of a malevolent individual." Obama plans to attend an interfaith service Thursday in the victims' honor in Boston.
Scores of victims of the Boston bombing remained in hospitals, many with grievous injuries. Doctors who treated the wounded corroborated reports that the bombs were packed with shrapnel intended to cause mayhem. A 9-year-old girl and 10-year-old boy were among 17 victims listed in critical condition.
Heightening jitters in Washington, where security already had been tightened after the bombing, a letter addressed to a senator and poisoned with ricin or a similarly toxic substance was intercepted at a mail facility outside the capital, lawmakers said.
There was no immediate indication the episode was related to the Boston attack. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said the letter was sent to Republican Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi.
In the Boston case, an intelligence bulletin issued to law enforcement includes a picture of a mangled pressure cooker and a torn black bag that the FBI said were part of a bomb that exploded during the marathon.
DesLauriers said cooperation from the community will play a key role in the investigation. He said the range of suspects remained wide open, but by midday Tuesday more than 2,000 tips had been received.
The bombs exploded 10 or more seconds apart, tearing off victims' limbs and spattering streets with blood. The blasts near the finish line instantly turned the festive race into a hellish scene of confusion, horror and heroics.
The blasts killed 8-year-old Martin Richard, of Boston, and 29-year-old Krystle Campbell, of Medford. The Shenyang Evening News, a state-run Chinese newspaper, identified the third victim as Lu Lingzi. She was a graduate student at Boston University.
Officials found that the bombs in Boston consisted of explosives put in ordinary, 1.6-gallon pressure cookers, one with shards of metal and ball bearings, the other with nails, according to a person close to the investigation who spoke on condition of anonymity because the probe was still going on.
Both bombs were stuffed into black bags and left on the ground, the person said.
At Massachusetts General Hospital, all four amputations performed there were above the knee, with no hope of saving more of the legs, said Dr. George Velmahos, chief of trauma surgery.
"It wasn't a hard decision to make," he said. "We just completed the ugly job that the bomb did."
DesLauriers confirmed that investigators had found pieces of black nylon from a bag or backpack and fragments of BBs and nails, possibly contained in a pressure cooker. He said the items were sent to the FBI laboratory at Quantico, Va., for analysis.
Investigators said they have not yet determined what was used to set off the explosives.
DesLauriers said there had been no claim of responsibility for the attack.

It's always nice to have options. Especially when the barometer is steady and the water is as slick as glass as far as you can see. And you know there are some big mutton snapper on a certain patch reef a few miles offshore.
Scenarios like this are when inshore anglers really appreciate the range, versatility and comfort of a bay boat. Those same traits are also why many professional guides prefer the bay-boat style when fishing with clients. One such pro is Capt. Scott Owens, who operates his charter service in Brunswick, Georgia, where huge tidal swings and runs across deep open bays is the norm.
Economy Counts
"I own two Hell's Bay skiffs and a 27-foot Hell's Bay offshore center console. But during the summer months when I'm running bigger groups, the boat I mainly use is my 25 Shearwater TE with a Yamaha 250 four-stroke," he says. "The species we're targeting dictates the boat more than anything. With the Shearwater bay, I can fish four anglers inshore throwing artificials or live bait with popping corks. I run the trolling motor and use the Power-Pole to get into position. I can also go offshore an average of seven miles to fish behind the shrimp boats or on the shoals for sharks, tarpon and tripletail while keeping my clients comfortable."
The cost of operation is another reason why Owens appreciates his bay boat. With four anglers and a full tank, he's averaging between 3 and 3.5 miles per gallon. And with 89 octane, nonethanol gas selling at $4.85 a gallon at his local marina at press time, the Shearwater is much more cost-efficient to operate than his offshore center console.
Capt. Glyn Austin is another guide who likes the flexibility his bay boat provides. Austin fishes the Sebastian and Cape Canaveral areas of Florida, and has been running Shoalwater catamaran bay boats for the past four years. Built in Port O'Connor, Texas, his latest is the 23 Cat with a half-tower and 150 hp Evinrude E-TEC outboard.
"I use a bay boat for the versatility," Austin says. "It allows me to get into shallow water to fish the flats and mangrove shorelines for snook, reds, trout, and pompano. On nice days, I can fish the inlet or nearshore spots."

The Yuma County Sherriff's Office issued a news release July 2, regarding the recent pre-screening interview of Cody Slaughter, 22, for employment with the U.S. Customs Service. The YCSO only became involved after Slaughter admitted in the interview to having had sex with a girl, 2, eight years before. He also admitted to sex with several species of animal, and to a history illegal drug use. When asked specifically which species of animal, YCSO Major Leon Wilmot told Phoenix New Times that the animals involved were a horse, a dog, and a pig.
U.S. Customs referred the matter to the Sheriff's Office, who served Slaughter with a search warrant for his home. There they found multiple pieces of evidence supporting his statements in the Interview and linking him to the crimes in question. They were also able to confirm that the acts of bestiality went back as far as 2004 and continued to the present. They arrested Slaughter on one count of sexual conduct with a minor and three counts of bestiality. At this point no formal charges have been filed, so he was released on July 10 at his lawyer's request. The investigation is ongoing. Authorities have a year to file a misdemeanor complaint against him, and seven or more years for some of the other charges.

Dan Majerle, also known as "Thunder Dan," was born on September 9th, 1965. He was a 6'6" guard and forward from Traverse City, MI. After starting four seasons at Central Michigan (21.8 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists), he was selected in the first round by the Phoenix Suns with the 14th overall pick. He spent his first seven NBA seasons with the Suns, earning three all-star selections while scoring 15.3 points with 5.2 rebounds and 3.4 steals per contest. He is 10th all-time for Phoenix in scoring (8,034 points), ninth in rebounds (2,823), 10th in assists (1,824), fifth in steals (811), and 12th with 258 blocked shots. Prior to 1995-96, the Suns traded him to the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he played every game of the season. The Cavs released him on August 8th.
On August 22nd, 1996, Majerle and the Heat came to an agreement for $14,510,000 over five seasons. He started in 26 of his 36 appearances in his first season with Miami, averaging 10.8 points in 35.1 minutes per game. He shot 40.6% overall, and 33.8% from long distance, with 4.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.5 steals per game. He finished in double figures 19 times, helping the Heat to a 27-9 while in the lineup. On November 20th, in a 94-75 Heat triumph over the Vancouver Grizzlies, he scored 16 points with nine boards and six assists. He hit six-of-11 three-point shots on November 26th, scoring 23 with five rebounds and three steals in a 107-88 victory against the Golden State Warriors. The following night, he put up a season high 26 points with 10 rebounds for his only double double of the season, in a 98-82 win over the Los Angeles Clippers. Miami posted a then-franchise best 61-21 record, qualifying for the postseason as the second seed in the East. The Heat eliminated the Orlando Magic in five games and the New York Knicks in seven before bowing out to the Chicago Bulls in five. Majerle played in all 17 contests, averaging eight points, four rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.2 steals per game.
In 1997-98, Majerle started 22 times out of 72 appearances, shooting 37.6% from three-point range and 41.9% overall. He played 26.8 minutes, scoring 7.2 points with 3.7 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. Majerle helped Miami go 49-23 while playing, as Miami went 55-27 overall. He finished 24 games in double figures. In six games from March 22nd through April 2nd, he hit 15 three point shots, averaging 14.3 points with 6.2 rebounds and four assists per game. The Heat lost in the first round to the New York Knicks, three-games-to-two. Majerle played twice, totaling nine points with five rebounds, five assists and four steals through the series.
1998-99 would see Majerle shoot 39.6% from the field and 33.5% from deeper, playing 33.8 minutes per game. Over 48 games, all starts, he scored seven points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.1 helpers per game. He posted 11 times in double figures. Miami went 32-16 when Majerle played. On April 19th, he scored a season high 22 points on eight-of-11 shooting in a 94-87 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Miami took the top seed with a lockout shortened 33-17 record. He appeared five times in the playoffs, shooting under 20% and scoring a total of 20 points with 29 rebounds as the Heat were eliminated by the Knicks, three-games-to-two.
Majerle averaged 7.3 points with 4.8 rebounds, three dimes and 1.3 steals per game. He started 69 times, played 33.4 minutes per game, shot 40.3% overall and 36.2% from three-point range. He put up double figures 18 times, and helped the Heat go 44-25. On January 11th, in a 116-106 win over the Minnesota TimberWolves, he scored a season high 33 points with five rebounds and five assists. The Heat earned the Eastern Conference's second seed with a 52-30 record. Miami swept the Pistons in three to open the playoffs before losing in seven games to the Knicks. Majerle scored nine points per game, with an average of seven rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 2.1 steals.
2000-01 would be Majerle's last season in Miami. He played 53 games, starting 19 times at shooting guard.

His best game was on January 16th, in a 93-85 win over the Pistons, when he hit all three of his three point attempts for nine points, along with seven rebounds. Miami went 50-32 overall, but lost in the first round to the Charlotte Hornets in three straight games. Majerle totaled 16 points with 10 rebounds and five assists over 71 minutes to bring his Miami career to a close.
Majerle spent his last NBA season back with Phoenix, playing in 65 games. He is a member of the Suns "Ring of Honor," and served the team after retirement as an assistant head coach from 2008-13. He will soon make his NCAA Division I coaching debut with Grand Canyon University.

L to R R to L Alpha
This is the small short crack to the left of the 2 other cracks/flakes on the top half of the slab. It�s a finger/hand crack that is real easy to protect. Lead Boogaloo 5.8 or The Roof 5.9 to get up to the anchors, or another route like The Trough 5.5 to the top and then rap down and left to the anchors. From the anchors traverse left past Left Flake and then up the short crack. The crack dies out after about 20 feet and is filled with grass, from here you can follow the grassy crack up and run it out or traverse left 5 feet and take another flake up for 10 feet (protectable). From there head up and right to the anchors above Left Flake/Right Flake/Let it Bleed. Since this route starts traversing left and ends back right bring slings to reduce rope drag. To get down just rap back to the anchors and then rap down again to the ground. This crack is fun but it�s really short, it�d be a good warm up if you were a 5.7 trad leader and wanted to get a lap in before trying the other cracks. Also you could use this to set up a TR for the other cracks. To me the crux was traversing left once you past Left Flake, you can put a cam in to protect a swing here. It�s a real easy fun move because you get some instant exposure. Then there is another crux maybe 5 feet up the crack and then it�s easy to the top.
To the left of the 2 Flakes/Cracks on the upper half of the main slab.

£15m plans for new units at Burnley General Hospital (From This Is Lancashire)
£15m plans for new units at Burnley General Hospital
1:15pm Monday 10th February 2014 in News
HEALTH campaigners and MPs have welcomed the possibility of a new surgical unit and opthalmology centre and Burnley General Hospital.
East Lancashire health bosses are currently in the process of drawing up two bids for a new £10million specialist eye clinic, and a £5million surgical unit at Burnley General Hospital, to serve patients across East Lancashire.
Today three Lancashire MPs, Gordon Birtwistle, Jake Berry and Andrew Stephenson, will meet the Secretary of State for Health Jeremy Hunt to aim to get his backing for the two proposals.
The news has been welcomed by politicians and health watchdogs from across the east of the county.
Rossendale and Darwen MP Mr Berry said: "I think it's really important that we do all we can do to ensure we have an excellent local NHS and new services coming to Burnley.
"It gives people from Rossendale a real choice, and Gordon Birtwistle and I are both committed to campaign for this.
"We think it's achieveable and we'll both be working to make sure we do what we can to deliver it for people locally."
Ron O'Keeffe, chairman of Blackburn with Darwen Council's health scrutiny committee, said: "Indeed, we would welcome this.
"What the NHS is planning now is specialist centres where people are dealt with.
"If that's what the NHS is planning then that's the best thing, as long as people are prepared to travel for their treatment, that's the main thing.
"And people will have to be prepared to travel, because it's the thing of the future, to have first class services, that's what it's all about."

Thats the problem tho, many DO NOT want to travel for specialist services or even basic ones like maternity. Its rumoured all cardiac services are on the move to Manchester. we in Blackburn had a working hospital with a full range of services, but not longer since the health authority decided to waste money via a PFI and build a hospital that is not fit for purpose and out of reach of many unless you go by ambulance or pay for a taxi.
Perhaps if less was spent on advisors, managers and consultants, then the money could be spent on the fundamental needs, ie nurses, cleaners and porters.

FGCU's Payne Named All-Area Player of the Year
FORT MYERS, Fla. - Katlyn Payne, a standout at Bishop Verot and incoming freshman for the FGCU women's basketball team, has been named The Fort Myers News-Press Girls Basketball All-Area Player of the Year and earned First Team All-Area honors, the newspaper announced on Wednesday, April 7.
"She is the best player in the state," Bradenton Southeast coach John Harder said after his team defeated Verot in the Region 3A-3 semifinal game. "I've been thinking that all year. All she does is score from anywhere. She is unstoppable."
Payne, the 2010 Southwest Florida Association of Basketball Coaches Miss Basketball recipient, averaged 24.1 points and 7.2 rebounds per game in leading the Vikings (18-7) to the region semifinals, further than any other Lee County team. In Verot's 47-44 loss to Bradenton Southeast High in the Region 3A-3 semifinal game, Payne recorded 29 points.
Payne, who chose to play for FGCU over Creighton, Drake and Illinois, scored more than 20 points in 20 of Bishop Verot's 25 games. She shot 43-percent from the field on the season and scored a season-high 36 points in Verot's 56-32 defeat of South Fort Myers, a playoff team, on Nov. 24.
The 5-foot-11 guard, who transferred from the Chicago area when her family moved to Fort Myers this year, scored 554 points this season, accounting for nearly 40 percent of the Vikings' scoring.

Welcome to the OT Thread, the place for WAGNHers to come and discuss anything they like which isn't related to Chelsea, even if some Chelsea stuff bleeds in occasionally. ; )
There is, as always, a 1000-comment limit in place. Also, as usual, politics, religion or any of the big flamewar-starters are off limits. More off-limits topics are anything too racy, or violent. Remember, there are lots of young'uns on the site, so pretend you're speaking to a bunch of teenagers. Not too dirty, but you shouldn't feel restricted to being totally clean either. Not that you can't discuss "adult" things, but do take them elsewhere!
Since normal service has been resumed, regarding the 1000-comment limit, I'm not going to put it back to 500, which is easy to hit in a day, and this reduces the chance of more drawn-out conversations being ruined by a sudden comment spree. I've called this one because it's the 15th, FloMo wears No. 15, might be going, and my pun machine is stuck on the "Mirror" setting. This isn't a clean slate thread, so you can bring back any topic you like from the previous OT Threads, if you feel like you haven't finished with it.
We need a new topic. I choose... Graham's Robot Duck. It's not binding, though, so feel free to talk about anything you like!
Yay! 150+ words. Let the OT begin!!!

Well I got my used manifold by fed-ex yesterday and I picked up my gaskets at the autoparts store I was happy $4.84 for the manifold gasket and $40 for the Manifold shipped to my door. I was also surprised it was sandblasted also.
Got the manifold bolted on and went to install the carb and I thought there was a new gasket at my dads so I didn't get one.
Well there wasn't so I used the old one that was in rough shape. we bolted it up and cranked it over! oops I had it chocked to long ran the choke backwards lol it happens with all the excitement and ran the battery down. Then all the gas was running everywhere. out the carb between the carb and the intake out the air breather hose all over the floor. My dad says see I told you the choke went the other way. Should have listened to him he has only hand cranked his "A" for 40 years he has the early 1940 one no starter or choke rods all done by hand.
well I laughed and told him you know how excited I get like a kid at christmas!
well I tried tightening the carb bolts a little more but not to tight don't need to strip the threads. I started to hand crank it after I shut the gas off.
I am not sure if the float is stuck or not it acts like it. Dad took the carb apart and cleaned it but It is going to get a rebuild.
anyway I started hand cranking it and with each turn of the engine when it would come up to TDC it was spit and sputter and roll over a bunch of times after I did this for about 15 turns I turned the gas back on and 2 cranks latter it fired up. Slow slow faster faster spitting and sputtering and it came to full life. Well it was missing but I have not done any tune up stuff to it yet. Money is tight so now that I know it will run I will be getting the parts.
I had good throtal respone and sounded prety good. I let it run enough to get warm and drain the crudy old oil out. Then it was time to go pick up my kids and get home before my wife had a coranary I wasn't home yet.
So in the next week or so I will be rebuilding the carb and buying a tune up kit. I also can now go buy the front tire. $53 a tire with tube installed.
later this spring it will be cosmetic stuff but I need to find a battery box first.
Well it fires up and I am sure I will post more of my progress and I think I will listen to my dad a little more often! I have had that problem since I started working on engines!

A researcher at Jackson State University is recovering after the robbery and shooting on the campus Monday.
The first person to help her to safety is now being called a hero.
Third year student LeMarc Humphrey was in a building a few feet from the science building, when he heard the shots ring out Monday around 6:30 p.m.
"I peeked around the corner and saw the victim just staggering and about to fall so I immediately ran after her," said Humphrey.
36-year-old Andrea Scott was shot twice during the robbery.
Scott, a native of Slovakia, is in Jackson completing post graduate work in the JSU chemistry lab. Despite being shot twice in the back of the head, she is listed in fair condition at a local hospital.
Scott told investigators she was approached by a man demanding money as she walked to her car. After she gave the man five dollars, he then demanded her purse. When she refused, he began beating her in the head with a gun.
The man then fired two shots striking her in the back of the head. One bullet is still lodged in her neck and has to be surgically removed.
Within seconds Humphrey was by her side. LeMarc said, "I picked her up, got her out the rain, she was telling me she needed to got to the hospital, to call her husband."
Humphrey called 9-1-1- and Scott's husband, getting her the medical attention she needed. LeMarc is being called a hero and a possible candidate for the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
"I couldn't imagine her being out here and I wasn't here and she would have just been lying there, " says LeMarc.
Bill Scott, Andrea Scott's husband thanked LeMarc for his bravery in a letter.
Scott said, 'Andrea and I owe her life to LeMarc Humphrey. If it hadn't been for his selfless bravery, she would have died. She would have lost her life, alone and helpless, dying in agony in the cold, February rain on a JSU lawn.'
Jackson State campus police say there is no new information on the investigation into the shooting.

On Tuesday, a jury rejected the insanity defense in the trial of Aaron Schaffhausen, who admitted to killing his three young daughters last July. Jeff Tamburino, criminal defense attorney, explains why.
Watch the video for more information.
The verdict delivered after 3.5 hours of deliberation found that Schaffhausen did have a mental defect, but they say he did not meet the legal requirement of insanity because he knew what he was doing was wrong.
Schaffhausen will likely spend decades in prison due to the verdict.

On tap at the Lancaster location on Memorial Day 2011.
Pours a clean golden color with a good white head and a bit of light lacing on the way down. The nose brings forward some light grainy malt plus a moderate amount of floral hops. The flavor is really quite nice, distributing the flavors of the grain and light floral hopping quite well. Very crisp. Light with good carbonation. Very refreshing. Something I would definitely have again.

On-tap at the Lancaster brewpub.
A: The helles lager is a golden color, robust yet translucent. A half a finger of white head, moderate lacing (just a few legs).
S: The nose is pleasantly toasty, full of breads that remind me of the crust. The grains lend a sweetness that pairs nicely with the toast.
T: A rich flavor, evident from the first sip. Toasted malts are bready (and crusty), chewy with a mild fruit undertone. Hops come through late in each sip, an earthy bitterness that balances the toast. The finish leaves bread, with a mildly toasted fullness, to linger.
M: A nice lager is tough to beat, especially when I'm inclined to reach for an IPA. The bready chewiness, matched with soft hops, goes down surprisingly well.

On tap @ Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant (Lancaster, PA) on 1/2/11. Served in an oversized mug.
Pours a clear copper, with a thin fizzy layer of bright-white head. This does stay rich on the edges, leaving back a foamy cascade that quickly slides down the sides of the glass. The aroma is grassy, with some bright citric (and a little earthy) hop flavors. The smell of sweet biscuits from the malts is tight against the back of the nose.
The hops bite down with a little bit of force in the taste, with green and earthy citrus character that lays some bitterness down on the palate. The malts once again have a tight grainy feel that spreads balancing sweetness across the back end of the profile. This finishes with a dry leafy and spicy feel as well as some pithy bitterness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, with a big sharp creamy carbonation, which prickles the mouth with flavor but there is just enough oily slickness present in the body as well to keep this feeling pretty smooth overall.
Good take on a Helles here, with some simple yet flavorful profiles and a crisp easy drinking body that gave this quite a thirst quenching feel. I had no problem putting this large mug away. I probably could have easily followed it up with another one as well. Good stuff.

A Mega Millions ticket worth $1 million was sold at a Lancaster County convenience store, the Pennsylvania Lottery said Wednesday.
The winning ticket from the December 11 drawing was sold at A Jay's Mini Mart, at 300 East Main Street in Terre Hill.
The ticket correctly matched all five white balls, 39-44-51-52-54, but not the yellow Mega Ball 13. It was purchased with the $1 Megaplier option, which awards a $1 million match-five prize, less 25 percent federal withholding.
The retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling a winning ticket.
Lottery officials cannot confirm the identity of the winner until the prize is claimed and the ticket is validated. Pennsylvania Lottery Mega Millions winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes.

MOSCOW (AP) -- Sven Kramer of the Netherlands won the men's 5,000-meter race with a new track record to top the standings dominated by Dutch skaters after two races at the World Allround Speedskating Championships on Saturday.
Defending champion Ireen Wust of the Netherlands leads the women's field without winning either of the first two races at Krylatskoye Ice Stadium oval.
Kramer, the world record-holder in the 5,000 and 10,000, finished the 5,000 in 6 minutes, 14.22 seconds. He shaved 4.21 seconds off the old mark set by countryman Bob de Jong at a World Cup in January 2011.
Jan Blokhuijsen of the Netherlands was second in 6:16.99, while defending all-around champion Ivan Skoberev of Russia was third at 6:19.78.
Kramer, who finished eighth in the 500 opener, leads the standings with 74.123 points after two races. He is followed by compatriots Blokhuijsen with 74.259 points and Koen Verweij with 74.330.
"The 500-meter (race) was not so good today," Kramer said. "But 5,000 was a perfect one. It reminded me of my first championships in 2005."
The then-18-year-old Kramer won his first all-around medal behind Americans Shani Davis and Chad Hedrick here in Moscow in 2005. One more bronze in Calgary was followed by four consecutive overall titles.
Zbigniew Brodka of Poland was timed at 36.24 seconds to win the men's sprint race. He was just two-hundredths of a second ahead of Verweij. Brodka's fellow Pole Konrad Niedzwiedzki came in third at 36.32.
Wust tops the women's field with 79.818 points after finishing third in the 500 opener and second in the 3,000.
World Cup overall leader Christine Nesbitt, who won the women's 500 but finished sixth in the second race, was second with 79.891 points. The Canadian was followed by Martina Sablikova of the Czech Republic at 80.610.
The Czech, who has been unbeatable at 3,000 meters this season, clocked 4 minutes, 01.80 seconds to claim her fourth victory at the distance. She edged Wust by 0.69 seconds at the finish line.
In the women's sprint, Nesbitt finished in 38.30 seconds Saturday at the Krylatskoye Ice Stadium oval. Yekaterina Lobysheva of Russia was second, 0.65 seconds behind and Ireen Wust of the Netherlands finished third, 1.07 back.
The all-around championships are an endurance test for speedskaters. The champions are determined by their combined results over four races. The women will race the 1,500 meters and 5,000 meters Sunday, while the men compete in the 1,500 and the 10,000.

Ok, I'll admit it... 20 year West coast climbing snob. Never thought there was any good climbing east of the Rockies. My wife MADE me come to the Gunks for our October trip. She said we had to at least check it out once. And the place is fricken' awesome. I stand happily corrected! That is all. Andy :) ps. And yes, we only climbed during the week thus avoiding the weekend mad house.
Don't tell everyone. Now there will be people climbing up and down the east coast in NH, WV, KY, TN, NC.
And it's how much now ? $17 you gotta be shittin' me- you can't even climb at Skytop,, a great grag
Haven't been to the gunks in years for the same reason, drive 2.5 hrs. and PAY to climb, i don't think so. I dig the fact that the money goes to the preserve and shit, but there are ALOT of climbers at the gunks ALL the time. Much rather stay in Ct, drive to Ma. or NH any time.
Yeah, you West coast snobs have a lot to learn. There's even excellent climbing in the Mid-west and Texas.
oldfattradguuy says - "Without the Mohonk Preserve, the Trapps would likely be a high-end housing development or it might be owned by the state and off-limits to climbing. Although I have not been there in over 20 years, I imagine that the preserve is still doing a great job taking care of the place. Look at what the area has become (so I'm told), the preserve is an island of sanity in an area that was overcrowded over 20 years ago. " And this is the truth, so stay in colo-rad-yo john... quit pissing on the parade.
Yes, it is indeed rad there. A little pricey but rad. You think the Gunks are cool then you should check out some of the other Northeastern/New England areas. The ice is pretty good too.
Season pass and it ain't that bad. That or go to the adk.
yea they are
Come to the Daks!
I was there for two weeks in 2011 and love it. Climbed nothing but 3 star routes and didn't notice any crowds, and never waited for a climb. Never seen so many gumbies though. The town of New Paltz was nice too. Found a great breakfast place that was cheap, and another place for dinner with 500+ beers on the menu. Loved it, and would definitely want to go back sometime.
Awesome Andy! Now you need to head down to the Southeast and continuing diversifying your American rock resume!
www.mohonkpreserve.org/sites/default/files/files/PDF/AnnPub2>>> Page 16 has the financials. Interesting to note that they spend over $300,000 a year on "communications" and "membership" expenses... ie, mailings. We get duplicates multiple times each year, whether for membership renewal or begging for more money. These mailings are not cheap to produce or distribute (postage is postage). The fact this hasn't been evaluated, and a more effective and efficiernt means of contacting their membership, or doing a cost analysis on whether those mailings even pay for themselves, is a sign of their deep pockets. Organizations struggling for cash don't waste a single mailing.
Check out NC too one day Andy. You'll shit a meat axe. Guaranteed.
Hey Andy - what routes did you guys get on???
... and you haven't even seen the best climbing in the east. :)

LAS VEGAS, NV—(Laserfiche)—October 23, 2011—Laserfiche (booth #1245) today announced that it will showcase how Laserfiche enterprise content management (ECM) solutions can streamline the billing, HIM, credentialing, compliance and contract management processes at medical groups and practices around the country, including Fertility Centers of Illinois, Dallas Associated Dermatologists and Arkansas' CareLink.

Keane Capital Management, Inc. is a hedge fund firm based in Charlotte, NC. Since its founding in 1999 with a staff of just two, the firm has grown to seven full-time employees handling fund portfolios for some 250 high net worth investors. With this growth came the need for greater administrative efficiency, which led to Ted Slack joining the firm as its first controller in 2005. (more…)
Outagamie County, WI, has a tradition of innovation. Appleton, its county seat, is home to Hearthstone, the very first home in the United States to be powered solely by Thomas Edison's hydroelectric technology and light bulbs, way back in 1882. Now, almost 130 years later, that innovative spirit can be seen in the county's deployment of Laserfiche agile enterprise content management (ECM) to expand and enhance information services in several departments.
In a year marked with more bank failures than we've seen since the height of the savings-and-loan crisis, D.L. Evans Bank, a family-owned institution with 22 branches, 320 employees and $875 million in managed assets, has cause to celebrate. Its ten-year use of Laserfiche has netted the 105-year-old, Idaho-based bank a wealth of dividends, including:
- Faster audits.
- Streamlined lending.
- Improved business continuity planning.
- More efficient processes for opening new accounts.
- A 33% reduction in hard copy document production and an 85% reduction in paper storage.
There's little in life that's more elemental than water. And yet, in most developed countries, it's easy to take access to safe water and sanitation for granted.
Prior to the creation of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (CCCSD) in 1946, however, Contra Costa County—located east of San Francisco, CA—was in crisis. A post-war building boom had brought an influx of new residents, most of them relying on septic systems that didn't take well to the area's heavy adobe clay soil. With septic tanks overflowing and waterborne diseases such as typhoid becoming a potential threat, health authorities considered the polluted conditions in the county to be among the worst in California.
As a result, the CCCSD was formed as a special district, a sewer system and treatment plants were put in place, and the public received much-needed access to safe water and sanitation.
The Clay County Utility Authority is an independent special district, created by special legislation in Chapter 94-491 of the Florida statutes, that services the water, wastewater, and reclaimed water needs of its service area in Clay County, Florida. "Being a governmental entity, CCUA obtains its revenues from its ratepayers, not from taxpayers," explains Dave Howell, Records Management Administrator. And when people don't use as much water – say, in the case of the recent economic slowdown and the resulting lull in home building and new service requests – CCUA acts like any other business: It watches spending and looks for ways to cut costs. Howell says Laserfiche has given him the administrative control to be flexible enough to not only manage CCUA's exponential paperwork growth, but to monitor productivity, ensure compliance and implement a disaster recovery plan. As a result of this streamlining, efficiency and oversight, CCUA has been able to not only solve its document management issues, Howell says, but has also been able to cross-train existing staff to run more efficiently.

A Butts County family of 13 who lost everything in a house fire says they overwhelmed by the generosity of FOX 5 viewers.Lisa Murphy cares for 12 children. Some are her own, some are grandchildren and some were adopted. On Sunday morning, an electrical fire consumed her home and destroyed everything she and her children owned. "I've done for people my whole life and really, it's hard to ask for help and accept help," Murphy said.But Murphy didn't even have to ask. The help came rushing in like an avalanche.A back building at Murphy's church, Heritage Baptist in Locust Grove, is now storing the donations made to the family. "It's just unimaginable how quickly, since this has happened, that everybody has just brought things out and wanted to be there help in any way they could. It's just a blessing," said Michelle Kunder of Heritage Baptist Church. Each one of Murphy's12 children has a pile of clothes at the church; there's also much needed furniture and everyday essentials for getting back on her feet. Much of it was donated by total strangers.Jennifer Symmes had not met Murphy before the fire. Yet, she built a website for her raised more than $12,000 in less than a day."I think naturally, when you meet someone like that, you want to give back, and that's what this community has been drawn to," Symmes said.That money will go to Murphy's number one goal now: rebuilding her house on the same site. She says for her children, it has to be a priority."This is home and if we rebuild here, it kind of -- it doesn't replace what they've lost, but it makes where they feel like they belong here," Murphy said.Murphy says her insurance company is still reviewing her policy and has not decided how much it will add to the cost of rebuilding.For information on how to help the family, visit: http://www.youcaring.com/help-a-neighbor/murphy-house-fire-relief/128419

Conor Racing "Team" by Conor Racing - over 1 year ago
"My son, Conor, loves race cars. When he found out a coworker of mine owned and raced a car locally, he asked if he could sponsor his car. Thus, "Conor Racing" was born. We thought it would be fun for our family to wear "Conor Racing" T-shirts to the races. We also gave them as gifts to the race car owners. We love how the shirts turned out!"
