YUMA, AZ - You've heard of driving under the influence. What about baking or deep frying your turkey while under the influence? Firefighters say it's a real concern that could be a dangerous mixture for you and your family.
Mike Erfert from the Yuma Fire Department says "We discourage anyone from driving under the influence. We certainly discourage cooking under the influence because your inhibitions are reduced you might not be as careful as you should be."
So, to stay safe and keep your home from catching fire firefighters warn if you're going to fry your bird do so outside and away from flammable trimmings. Erfert says "It is important to follow the instructions and be very careful because the inherent risks with a huge amount of oil which is flammable, very hot and involving an open flame is pretty obvious."
According to the NFPA between Thanksgiving and Christmas there are more cooking related fires than any other time of the year. In fact, nationally firefighters report more than 156 thousand fires are caused by not paying attention in the kitchen. Erfert says, "Cooking combined with distraction of the holiday end up with unattended cooking and you get the fire."
Firefighters also advise to keep kids out of harms way designate a kid free zone whether you deep fry your turkey outside or bake it in a hot oven inside.

Discovering hornMarch 13, 2008 | Written by Mae on Featured Products | 1 Comment |
If it would be your first time to visit Cebu in the Philippines, you'd notice many interesting things about this island-province. Aside from its rich historical beginnings, it's also home to exotic marine resources.
Cebu is known internationally for its unique fashion accessories made from indigenous materials such as carabao horn, exotic seashells, wood, bone, coco shell, seeds and nuts, and limestone corals.
It was during my last visit to this lovely island-province, that I became fascinated with some unusual pieces I got from a local souvenir shop —a surfer's necklace with a somewhat talismanic horn pendant. So, I set about to find out about this intriguing piece…
I was told that the horn pendant was made from carabao antlers or horn. (The Philippine water buffalo, a black-skinned mammal also known as carabao, is commonly raised for plowing rice fields, transport, milk, and meat.) I wondered how many water buffaloes were needed to collect enough antlers. I can only imagine how much patience, skill, and strength it took to transform the raw horns into beautiful art pieces and whatnot's. (Carabao horns are really dense and harder than cow horn.)
I was able to visit one production site to witness the process of honing carabao horns into jewelry beads and components. I immediately noticed a newly dumped pile of raw horns with other different indigenous materials. Crude tools and machines being were used to cut up, carve, etch, dye, and polish the horn beads. Everything was done rather systematically. Horn beads were then finished with black, golden brown, and other translucent shades.
The whole process was labor-intensive. One would think so much time and energy has been poured into those strands of horn beads reflecting a culture of hard work and ingenuity I'm most proud of, as a Filipino.

Small, 'second chance' high schools, Robeson and BEST, face phase out in Oakland
by Jennifer Inez Ward
In articulate and passionate voices, students told Matthews the school offered important second chances to kids transferring from larger schools.
"I feel Paul Robeson should stay open because it offers a nurturing environment to its students," said senior Jimonte Johnson. "It's a smaller school, the teachers actually care and my grade point average has increased from 0.40 GPA to a 3.67."
Matthews listened to a student-led presentation on Robeson, answered questions from teachers and, although he met again with the community, Robeson will still most likely be phased out.
Phase out is a school shutdown process used with increasing regularity by Oakland Unified School District to gradually wind down schools one grade at a time. Robeson will be completely shut down by 2012.
Before 2003 the district rarely closed any of its schools. Beginning in 2004 after the state took over district operations, phasing out schools that failed to meet key achievement goals became common practice by the Oakland district. By 2009-2010 the district will have shut down or begun phasing out 28 schools, the vast majority being small schools.
Robeson isn't the only Oakland school on track for phase out beginning next year. Robeson joins Business Entrepreneurial School of Technology (BEST) High School, located on the McClymonds High School campus, in becoming the two small schools scheduled for phase out starting the 2009-2010 school year. Neither school has been open more than five years.
About seven years ago, the Oakland Unified School District began implementing a new program geared towards creating smaller schools as part of a broader plan to improve test scores, come into compliance with No Child Left Behind and give students an opportunity to learn in a smaller setting.
Almost overnight new, smaller "academies" and career schools sprang up. Some of these new schools were given their own buildings and some were put in place in the existing large sprawling campuses that had originally been built for the student population boom of the 1950s and 1960s.
"These big comprehensive high schools were really showing no signs of progress or success in the way they were delivering services to the students," Dutta said. "Small schools was a move towards a better educational system."
Oakland Unified School District is a complex, dense public school system that has weathered multiple upheavals over the last few decades, including the financial mismanagement five years ago that led to the state of California taking over the district.
Oakland has a total of 110 public schools and about 53 are small schools. To be sure, many small schools have seen great success and the district has opened a fair number of new school programs in Oakland.
For example, Matthews pointed to the fact that in 2005, the district opened five small schools – Reach, Rise, Manzanita SEED, Sankofa and Kizmet – but closed six small schools – Golden Gate, Washington, Rubicon, King Estates, Village Academy and Fremont. The net change was one less small school.
However, parents, teachers and Oakland education experts worry that the district is providing uneven levels of financial and administrative support to many schools, causing a decline in achievement for small schools that are located in the Oakland flatlands. Some educators and parents worry that the district is also putting its cookie cutter achievement standards ahead of supporting new schools that may need extra nurturing.
BEST parents said they are upset about the upcoming phase out.
"It's horrible; it's very discouraging for the kids," said BEST parent Ernest Carroll, who's also an alumnus of McClymonds.
Parents, teachers and Oakland education experts worry that the district is providing uneven levels of financial and administrative support to many schools, causing a decline in achievement for small schools that are located in the Oakland flatlands.
Some BEST students said they are still absorbing the news. Both teachers and students say the positive work being done at the school is not necessarily reflected in its test scores.
Teachers, administrators and educational organizations said many small schools have also not been given the adequate financial resources to meet district achievement goals and attract and retain students.
"Right now we have no performing arts teacher," Robeson Social Studies teacher Craig Gordon said. "We're a performing arts school and we have no performing arts teacher."
Matthews said it's not just about money.
"Some small schools claim that 'we need additional' or 'we need more' and you have others that are just fine with the budgets as they are established." Matthews said. "They are able to make do or to do well with the budgets."
Dutta said the district needs to focus on long term strategies for dealing with small schools in trouble instead of phasing out the programs.
"With adequate resources, adequate planning and adequate amount of time, these schools could succeed," Dutta said. "But they haven't been given those conditions. And so to say that these schools have failed and to close them before they've really been given the opportunity to show their potential I think is a tragedy and a huge waste of resources because so much money has gone into the conversion into small schools."
How you can help
Community members interested in addressing the issue of school closures can attend the May 27 Oakland Board of Education meeting at 5 p.m. in the Board Room at the district's main office, the Paul Robeson Building, 1025 Second Ave. in Oakland.

One thought on "Small, 'second chance' high schools, Robeson and BEST, face phase out in Oakland"
Justin Powers
Thanks SFbayview for publishing this article and thanks to Jennifer for covering Oakland schools.
As a father of a nearing school age child I am wrestling with the decision of weather to send my child to public or private school.
I would prefer a public school as I believe that they play an important part of both educating and connecting children and their parents to the community.
Obviously the poor performance of many of the schools, the underfunding and the test one test all mentality is giving me long pause.
The fact that Oakland has been working on tweaking the system with small schools is a positive trend in my mind. The fact that the community is fighting to keep these schools alive tells me as well that I would not be alone in taking an active part in my child's education.
I will be paying increasing attention to this issue. More like this one please!

We as boxing fans always talk about ways to improve the sport of boxing, but neglect the issue of fighter safety. I want to know what you guys think can be implemented to reduce the risk of long term effects from being hit in the head repeatedly. Also what effect would those issue have on the fan base and popularity of the sport. I was thinking maybe go to a mandatory 14 ounce glove size for all fights and maybe even making headgear mandatory, which I know will not be popular with hardcore or casual fans.

No matter how much you try to implement, these dudes are still hitting each other. As someone mentioned, it's the fighter's responsibility for their own safety, and boxing licenses pretty much lets a guy know that.
Now, I will add a little bit more spice to the topic while we're talking about post-fight and long-term injuries. Which sport is more taxing on the body, boxing or mixed martial arts? This seems like an easy answer, but it's not, I just want to hear everybody's take on it.

One of his friends decided to bring a fake shark fin in the water. Everyone else was in on the joke.
This poor guy swam all the way to shore, before realizing it was all a prank.
There are quite a few shark pranks floating around online. In one video, musicians play the "Jaws" theme live while someone arrives with a shark fin.

How They Met: Racing Hearts
Daddy's Girl
Caren Begun's father was always full of surprises. When she was 12, he took her ice-skating at Rockefeller Center in New York City, and he surprised her by lacing up a pair of his own skates and hitting the ice. "There were things about my dad that I never knew, and that he could skate was one of them. He usually was this hard-core businessman, then he'd surprise me by letting out the little kid inside of him."
The most memorable surprise that Caren's father ever sprang on her was also the most devastating. In 1996, he told her he had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. When he died two years later, Caren was devastated. In 2002, to honor her father's memory, Caren signed up to ride in a 100-mile charity bike ride for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. She wanted to help fight the disease that took her father from her, especially since her stepfather also battled a form of lymphoma.
During her first training session for the ride, at a New York City gym, Caren met Daniel Begun, an avid cyclist who had biked the charity event the previous year. Daniel was back this year not only as a participant but also as a mentor, whose job it was to help first-timers feel welcome. When he spotted the cute brunette, he approached her with an outstretched hand and a friendly greeting.
From there, an easy friendship developed. The two began meeting once or twice a week for morning Spinning classes and found excuses to ride together during their outdoor training sessions. "I really wasn't looking for a relationship," says Caren. "But Daniel and I had such an open, comfortable way of communicating. I felt like I could just be myself with him."
About a month after they met, the two attended a potluck dinner honoring the cancer patients and survivors they were working so hard to help. Daniel asked Caren why she'd gotten involved with the charity. She told him about her father's death, then listened with sympathy as Daniel explained that his own father had died of leukemia just five months before lymphoma had claimed Caren's dad.
This shared loss would turn out to be just one of many bonds they shared. Both are Jewish, and both had endured the divorce and subsequent remarriages of their parents when they were young.
Because they had both lived with their mothers growing up, neither spent a great deal of time with their fathers. Daniel knew that he'd inherited his dad's "punny" sense of humor, but like Caren, felt that there was still more he would have liked to know about the man. "I've always been interested in science," says Daniel. "But it was only through conversations with my stepmother, after my father's death, that I discovered he had that same fascination."
"Talking about our dads with each other sort of opened up a dialogue about two people whom we both loved and missed a great deal," says Caren. "It triggered memories that we'd kept under the surface, and sharing those memories played a part in deepening our connection."

We understand that emergencies can happen and we will look at cancellations created by an emergency situation on a case-by-case basis. Having a coach who is out of town, a player who cannot play (even the best player on the team), forgetting to enter a date when your team is entering a tournament, entering the wrong date, etc. are NOT emergencies and will be treated as cancellations. Cancellations are defined but not limited to:
• Canceling the game in advance;
• Forfeiting for lack of cards;
• Forfeiting for insufficient number of players;
• Forfeiting because there is no Risk Management cleared coach with a Coach's Card;
• Forfeiting for arriving late;
• Having the game terminated for any reason for which your team is at fault;
• Arranging another game and not playing the game as scheduled.
If your team should still decide to cancel a game, they MUST follow each of these steps:
NOTE - Do not contact any league official until AFTER you have an agreed upon date, time and location for a rescheduled game. Requests received without following the policy will not be honored.
NOTIFY THE OPPOSING COACH. The league will not do this for you. Give that coach time to notify his/her team. Coaches contact information can be found by contacting the Club president or registrar as noted on the web page; if this doesn't work, contact any PCJSL board member for assistance.
As soon as the reschedule date time and location have been confirmed by both coaches, ONE OF THE CLUB PRESIDENTS OR DOCs of the respective teams must send an email copying the following Board Members: Kadar Hamilton (in charge of Cancellations) at firstname.lastname@example.com, Bob Barton (Fields) at firstname.lastname@example.com, Maggie Barton & Karen Phillips (referee coordinators) at email@example.com & email@example.com, Mike Grotkier (President) at firstname.lastname@example.com, Shari Myoraku (Vice President) at firstname.lastname@example.com . { Email All }
Reschedule the game. This should be done in cooperation with the team you were scheduled to play, using your club to secure fields and referees. The Canceling team is responsible for contacting the opposing Team and finding a place, time and date where the game can be played. Contact the League thru your Club President with the new time and date for the game that is being rescheduled. The League will attempt to secure referees only if requested a minimum of two weeks in advance.
You will still be subject to the following fines:
|PCJSL Game Cancellation Fines

|greater than 7 days (with proper notification)

For any youth to be eligible to compete in any PCJSL league game, they must be registered through Arizona Youth Soccer Association and have a valid, laminated player pass with a picture. The coach must be in possession of a signed emergency release form for that player.
*AYSA policy 5171 states "A registered player of any member association of AYSA may not participate in any practices, games, tournaments, tryouts/evaluations of another club without the home club's permission, if outside the defined tryout window. Home club's permission is a signed AYSA Player Loan Form...."
The GotSoccer game card is the official document for all PCJSL games. Referees should not start a game unless it is completely filled out with players' names, numbers, etc. Be sure to indicate the number of loan players. If you have any questions concerning how many loan players can be used, please check the Loan Player Policy Rule.
At the conclusion of the game, check the score before signing the card. Scores are posted from these cards. Make sure the correct score is attributed to the correct team. Also, if a red card has been given during the game, confirm the right player is indicated on the card. The game card is consulted on any question about a game – the score, red cards, etc. Coaches and referees need to work together to make sure it is correct.
The GotSoccer League program now lets teams print the Game Cards for their upcoming league games directly from their team pages.
a.) Teams can then login into their accounts at www.gotsport.com
b.) The teams have to click onto your league link displayed on the Main Menu page.
c.) Next, the teams have to click onto the Schedule tab.
d.) To print the game cards the team must click on the Game Number.
Every person who works directly with youth, including but not limited to team managers, team moms, coaches, assistant coaches, trainers, parents who help on a regular basis, etc. must be cleared through the PCJSL Risk Management Program. At that time an Administrative Pass will be issued to them as proof them have been Risk Management cleared. The Risk Management form is available under forms at www.pcjsl.com. The form should be completely filled out using the proper name – not nicknames. The original, completed form can be given to a Club Registrar to submit or mailed directly to Pat Dunham, c/o 6675 E. 22nd St., Tucson, AZ 85710. Any club who is found to be allowing an adult to work with players without this clearance may be subject to a bad-standing hearing.
When a coach, assistant coach, administrator, spectator or player is given a suspension for a red card or ejection from the field, a Suspension Fulfillment Form (available at www.pcjsl.com under forms) must be completed and signed by the referees officiating at the game(s) where they are "sitting out." Coaches, assistant coaches and administrators may not participate in any manner, including cell phones. Any person serving a red card should not sit in the immediate vicinity of the team and/or its spectators although they may be at the park. A team administrator is responsible for having the Suspension Fulfillment Form signed by the referees. A player shall serve his/her game suspension(s) with the team to which they are officially rostered with AYSA. If the player is multiple rostered, the suspension shall be served on his/her primary team. Red card sanctions received in PCJSL games must be served in PCJSL games except when the misconduct is referred to AYSA then AYSA will determine the sanction.
Uniforms Revised 3/14/2013
No Hard Casts.
Players in PCJL are prohibited from wearing uniforms with their name imprinted on them. Sponsor names can appear on a uniform unless the sponsor/product could be deemed detrimental to youth, i.e., a liquor or beer, a tobacco company, gambling, etc.
Uniforms should be identifiable as a "team" uniform. Referees will have final authority for accepting players in uniforms that are slightly different from the standard uniform of that team. All uniforms shall have a number and numbers will not be repeated on the field by players playing on the same team.
In cases of conflict as determined by the referee, the home team is responsible for providing a jersey of an alternate color. It is not the intent of the League to create a forfeit because of jersey conflicts. Pennies, bibs, etc. may be used. It is strongly suggested that teams who do not have alternate jerseys have t-shirts in a color contrasting their uniform, pennies or bids available. However, in cases where the home team does not have an alternate jersey but the opposing team does, it is expected that in the spirit of sportsmanship the opposing team will wear their alternate jersey.
As you prepare for the season, remember that if you are going to scrimmage or play an unaffiliated (not a member of PCJSL, AYSA or US Youth Soccer) team, you must get permission from AYSA/PCJSL first or your insurance coverage may be compromised. Please make sure that when you scrimmage, you are playing an affiliated team so insurance coverage is not in question. If you have any question about the affiliation status of a team, please contact Pat Dunham at 440-5259.
Mercy Rule Revised 3/13/2012
For U11 teams and above, after the completion of the first half of play, if there becomes a goal differential of 8 goals, the game/match will be halted. The leading team at that time will be declared the winner of the completed game/match. If not 8 at half, intent would be to stop game when it reaches 8. If both coaches agree then game can continue.

The Placer County Board of Supervisors awarded a $6.9 million construction contract Tuesday for a new bridge that will take Cook Riolo Road over Dry Creek in the southwest corner of the county.
On a unanimous vote, the board awarded the contract to MCM Construction Inc. of Sacramento, the lowest responsible and responsive bidder.
The 250-foot-long bridge will be built in two phases over two or three construction seasons. Construction on the first phase is scheduled to get under way this summer.
First District Supervisor Jack Duran thanked the Public Works Department for bringing the project forward, saying, "I know the folks out in the Dry Creek area are very interested in seeing this project not only begin, but be completed."
During the first phase, motorists will continue to use the old bridge while the western half of the new structure is built. In the second, the old bridge will be removed, traffic will be redirected to the new western span and the eastern half of the new bridge will be built.
The current one-lane bridge is old and subject to frequent flooding. The new bridge will include two 12-foot traffic lanes, 2 four-foot shoulders and a 10-foot bikeway that will have a concrete barrier to separate bicyclists and pedestrians from vehicle traffic.
In a report to the board, the Public Works Department noted it worked with area residents and members of the West Placer Municipal Advisory Council on the design of the bridge. "The proposed bridge will preserve the rural atmosphere desired by the residents while still providing a bridge and roadway approaches designed to current standards," the report explained.
Public Works also emphasized the new bridge will be much less susceptible to flooding than the existing one. The new structure will meet 100-year flood standards.
Almost 90 percent of the project funding will come from the federal government through its Federal Highway Bridge Program. The county will cover the rest of the project costs with county road funds and mitigation fee revenue.

A tractor-trailer smashed through a guardrail on Interstate 65 near Trinity Lane at about 7:30 a.m. Saturday.
The cause of the crash was not immediately clear but the Tennessee Department of Transportation described the wreck as a jack-knifed semi.
The rear portion of the semi's flatbed trailer was left dangling over the edge of the interstate.
The cab came to rest on a hill along Brick Church Pike.
"When I hit the ground, I just stepped out of the truck and said, 'Aw man,'" said driver Barry Burns of Gallatin.
Burns said he remembered a car pulling in front of him, causing him to slam on the brakes and lose control of the vehicle.
"I just remember bouncing around in the cab, and I was just thinking, 'Uh oh,'" said Burns. "You'd think an ambulance would be here carrying me off in a stretcher."
Instead, Burns was walking, feeling fine immediately after the wreck.
"Truly blessed when you walk away from something like this," said Burns. "I guess the good Lord was with me. That's all I can say."
It took crews several hours to clean up the mess.

Carmen and Luana are exceptional hosts. Carmen picked the 5 of us up at the Florence train station on Sunday, transported us on guided excursions every day, and took us to the Rome airport the following Sunday and also prepared our breakfast and dinners every day. The rooms, meals, hospitality and excursions all were excellant and exceded our expectations. Carmens knowledge of the area and history made our excursions to Rome, Florence, Norcia, Assisi, Siena, Montalcino, Deruta, Perugia and Passignano very informative and interesting. Did I mention how great all the meals were? Can't wait to return! John & Charlene, Medina, Ohio

Indeed, a rare find by any criterion.
4,0 sur octobre 10, 2009
Our stay for 6 nights was absolutely wonderful. When we did not feel like going out we stayed in and had our marvelous dinner on the Veranda with a breathtaking view of the lake and the mountains. The rooms are delightful, each in a different decor. The owners are very accomodating and the atmosphere relaxing. Each day we were taken to the train station to spend it in another city. When we returned we called the Inn and were picked up. They made it so easy for us as we were two women and did not have a car. We cannot wait until next year to spend more time in this wonderful Villa Trasimeno
5 sur juillet 09, 2009
Carmello and Luana Oppedisano, innkeepers at Villa Trasimeno, are undoubtedly the finest hosts of any inn or B&B at which we have ever stayed. We felt more like family than "clients." Carmello & Luana attended to every detail imaginable - starting with a lovely reception with cocktails & a delicious crostini. They made sure our room was incredibly clean and well-appointed. They made sure we had anything and everything we needed for an enjoyable stay, including wonderful conversation with them and their delightful (almost) 4 year-old daughter, Aurora. Carmen (Carmello) was almost encyclopedic in his knowledge of the area of Tuscany and Umbria. He provided us with great tips about what to do, where to go, and - importantly - perfect driving directions. We visited out-of-the-way spots that we could never have known about, and we are richer for the experiences. The property is really beautiful - overlooking Lake Trasimeno. Their grounds, with both decorative plants and fruits & vegetables abounding, are also quite attractive. The house is fantastic and the bed we slept in was THE most comfortable bed we slept in throughout Italy - including Rome, the Cinque Terre, and Venice. The food that Luana and Carmen prepare is truly excellent. Who would think that breakfast could be so good? They always tried to find something special to serve - from home-made pastries to a "killer" frittata. Do yourself a favor and schedule at least one dinner at Villa Trasimeno. We could have eaten there every night of our seven night stay; the food was incredibly good! The meals were creative, attractive, and delicious - perfectly paired with excellent local wine. We were actually sad to leave to continue our holiday. We will definitely go back to see Carmen, Luana, & Aurora - our plans will have to include central Italy because of them.

Many a comic potentiality is underworked, and the film's prevailing tone is obnoxiously erratic -- surely the supporting eccentrics (Jason Biggs and Lindsay Sloane) aren't supposed to be so off-putting? -- but it rests safe when entrusted to the charisma of its principals.
What ensues may be predictable, but the slapstick performances of Rudd and Bell are anything but. They court, they spark, and a few times they catch comic fire.
For what is essentially a screwball comedy, Over Her Dead Body is surprisingly uninspired, a frothy concept that offers little satisfaction in the way of execution.
I like Longoria Parker on "Desperate Housewives" and truly believe she could have a career on the big screen if she promises to never again work with writer-director Jeff Lowell, who perpetrated this offense of a ghost comedy on her and on her otherwise gifted co-stars Paul Rudd and Lake Bell.
May be the worst romantic comedy I've ever seen, although I hesitate to make such a resolute pronouncement about a movie that's so barely even THERE.

Feb 27, 2011This has to be the worst movie I have ever seen. I couldn't even watch it through to the end. Other actors might have been able to pull this off but not this ensemble. It's pushed as a romantic comedy but it fulfills none of the criteria that makes up either of these genres. In fact, this movie is so bad I took the time to register for an account on this site just to rate how awful it is. No other movie has earned this dubious honour.… Expand

Texas A&M will reportedly join the SEC in 2012 and the dominoes are beginning to tilt in the world of college athletics. The Aggies were the first to move in this wave of conference realignment, but likely won't be the last. In fact, the next few weeks may shape the future of college athletics.
Naturally, Big 12 schools are beginning to scramble. Monday's announcement that Texas A&M would become an SEC member triggered digging, made all the more complicated by scheduled Board of Regents meetings.
Missouri has a Board of Regents, or Curators, meeting conveniently scheduled on Monday night, with a mysterious agenda item on the docket.
Here's the Mizzou posting for its BOR meeting. All executive session. Pres search and mystery item. bit.ly/oa3IO3
Oklahoma also has a Board of Regents meeting scheduled for a week from Monday, and it John Hoover added a cryptic note about negotiations.
OU regents will meet in Claremore, OK on Mon. My source on Board was asked not to talk. "Negotiations are sensitive," he said.
As Bryan Fischer notes, the Sooners' moves may have opened the gates for Texas A&M to join the SEC.
Looks like OU deciding to go West is what A&M/SEC needed as a intervening cause to get rid of Baylor's legal threat.

We've all heard of how texting and driving can end in tragedy. So Houston Mayor Annise Parker is trying to drive that message home. Mayor Parker took that message to an unlikely crowd, a group of professional drivers.
When big rig drivers hit the highway one of the last things you want them doing is fiddling with their phone. "Very dangerous. You take your eyes off the road in an 18-wheeler or any vehicle, you take your eyes off the road texting, you could easily kill a number of people," explains Veteran Truck Driver Robert Love. Love has been driving a truck for Coca-Cola for 33-years. For the last 2-years Coke's policy has banned drivers from texting or talking on the phone while behind the wheel.
"Texting while driving is a growing, critical problem across the United States," says Mayor Parker. It's normally an offense you think of teens or twenty somethings committing but the mayor took time to remind truckers the dangers of driving while distracted. "This is a problem that cuts across all communities, all age groups. Texting while driving is at least as dangerous as drinking while driving," says Mayor Parker.
"I feel like it is a lot more dangerous than drinking and driving because very few people drink and drive but almost everybody texts or talks on the phone and drive," adds Love.
"It's kind of glued to everybody's hand," says veteran Truck Driver Ernest Flores who has spent an awful lot of time behind the wheel over the last twenty-eight years. "I've probably driven close to a million miles," Flores explains. Truck drivers have also seen an awful lot of texting and driving. "They're underneath my mirror, right next to my cab. So I'm worried you know," Love says.
"You see people slam on brakes because they're not paying attention," Flores adds.
"They also, while they're driving, play games on their phones," Love explains.
Mayor Parker is encouraging every Houston company to put in place a no texting while driving policy. "We really want individuals to also make a personal commitment that they won't do it in their own vehicle on their own time," says Mayor Parker. The mayor says she will continue the "It Can Wait" campaign by spreading the word about the dangers of texting and driving. She says she will first try to change habits before changing the law.

Luke Ridnour is not going to break two defenders down with a herky-jerky dribble and then find a sixth gear to drive for a layup.
At 33, in his 11th NBA season, Ridnour only has four gears. He is the Charlotte Bobcats point guard who is counted on for reliability, not speed. But with starter Kemba Walker out for the past two games with a sore right groin and possibly limited or out once again Monday for a road game against Atlanta, Ridnours role has suddenly increased. It may continue to do so during this critical week for the franchise.
Instead of his usual 8-10 minutes spelling Walker, Ridnour started and played 30 minutes in each of the Bobcats past two games. The team went 1-1 and Ridnour ended up in the two games with a combined 21 points, 13 assists and a single turnover. Although none of it was dazzling, a lot of it was effective.
The thing about Luke is were organized, Bobcats coach Steve Clifford said. You can see it as subtle, but he gets guys in their spots. There is great purpose when hes out there on the floor... Hes got a high IQ, he knows the NBA game and obviously he can deliver the ball. Hes a terrific passer.
Ridnour calls himself a pass-first point guard, but he will shoot if teams are playing off of him. He had 12 points Saturday night in Charlottes win against Philadelphia to go along with eight assists. Both were season highs in Charlotte for Ridnour, who was traded from Milwaukee in late February. Ridnour also made a behind-the-back save of a ball on the sideline that elicited oooohs from the crowd.
But Ridnours most notable reaction on the court came when he missed two consecutive free throws near the games end. He was obviously disgusted with himself.
I was ticked, said Ridnour, a career 86 percent free-throw shooter. Thats not what I do. But as long as we win the game, its good.
When I asked Ridnour how he felt Saturday night after playing big minutes in back-to-back games, he said, I feel good.
Then he paused. Well, good enough, he said. Im 11 years in and 33 years old. But this is an exciting time for this team, this city, to be able to be going to the playoffs. This is going to be fun.
Ridnour is not un-athletic by any normal standard. He was picked No. 14 overall out of Oregon in the starry 2003 draft that featured LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and Carmelo Anthony.
But by NBA standards, at 6-foot-2 and 175 pounds and often wearing a T-shirt, off the court he looks more like a surfer than a world-class basketball player. Jannero Pargo, the Bobcats third-string point guard, is a flashier shooter and can create his own shot more easily.
But it is Ridnour whom Clifford trusts to give the keys to most of the time when Walker is out of action. It is also Ridnour who makes no secret of the fact that the Bobcats must have Walker back for the playoffs (which start this coming weekend) to have any chance of making noise.
We need Kemba out there obviously, Ridnour said.
In the meantime, though, Ridnour will keep doing the same thing he always does. The son of a basketball coach and now a starter in nearly 500 NBA games, his routine rarely varies.
Personally, I just approach it the same whether Im starting or playing 8-10 minutes, Ridnour said. Im just trying to run the team and make stuff happen.

Glucosamine Sulfate (GS), a compound containing both glucosamine and sulfur, is found in and around the tendons, ligaments and connective tissues. Glucosamine, synthesized from the amino acid glutamine and glucose, is one of the building blocks of connective tissue. Glucosamine acts as the foundation for cartilage compounds known as glycosaminoglycans (mucopolysaccharides) and proteoglycans. Recent studies have indicated that the clinical utility of oral glucosamine in conditions of joint pain may reflect increased synthesis of cartilage proteoglycans. The sulfur component is necessary for the production of the disulfide bonds that are responsible for the rigidity and strength of connective tissue. Chondroitin Sulfate (CS) is a complex molecule that is found in high concentrations in joints and connective tissue. CS contains vital connective tissue components such as glucuronic acid and galactosamine sulfate. As people age, joints and connective tissues experience a decreased ability to replenish and restore the damaged tissues located in their joints. Many European studies have shown that GS supplementation can accelerate regeneration and the repair of cartilage. The results of several studies illustrated significant pain reduction and improved joint mobility after supplementing with GS daily.
Other Ingredients: Capsule is made of gelatin, microcrystalline cellulose and magnesium stearate.
Does Not Contain: Contains no common allergens.
Warnings: Keep out of reach of children. As with all dietary supplements, consult your healthcare professional before use. See product label for more information.

Jo Jackson: "I gave it everything"
In the women's 20km race walk on Saturday, Team GB's Johanna Jackson was disqualified due to a foot foul.
Jackson was omitted from the race for putting a foot out of place around the eight kilometre mark.
– Jo Jackson, Team GB
Unfortunately today wasn't to be and I got disqualified. I didn't think there was anything wrong with my technique, but obviously the judges saw that there was.
I was on for a personal best and I gave it everything, it just wasn't to be.
Jackson, who began race walking ten years ago, added:
The 27-year-old who started race walking 10 years ago, finished 22nd in Beijing in 2008. The race was won by Russia's Elena Lashmonova, with reigning champion Olga Kaniskina, who had led for the majority of the race, settling for second.
– Jo Jackson
"It meant everything to compete in front of this crowd and obviously I'm really gutted. I feel I've let everyone down now."

The lure of the Transformers saga starts a new chapter as all foes return, legendary heroes rise and new ones are found in unlikely places. The new CGI animated series Transformers Prime, produced by Hasbro Studios, currently airs on The Hub television network, deepens the epic mythology of both the Autobots and Decepticons, while starting fresh for a new generation of fans. Arch rivals the Autobots and the evil Decepticons, lead by Megatron, once again face-off in their rivalry for control of Earth in this new show.
Transformers Prime recently garnered two Emmy® Awards for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation and six Emmy nominations.
In November, Peter Cullen, the voice of Optimus Prime, and Frank Welker, who plays Megatron, talked with me about how much fun they have recording episodes for Transformers Prime.
Both Peter Cullen and Frank Welker have nothing but love for Transformers Prime, The Hub and their fellow cast members. They thoroughly enjoy their recording sessions, which they do as a group. "We have a chemistry," Cullen said, after working together for so many years. Cullen said that sometimes Welker goofs off just to see him shoot water through his nose. Welker referred to Cullen as "The King," and persuaded him to imitate an idling tractor-trailer for me, laughing all the while.
Early Careers
When I asked how they got started and who has influenced their careers, Frank Welker immediately said, "I've learned from everyone I've worked with." Both actors grew up trying to make their friends and family laugh. Cullen remembered his start in Hollywood working with Sonny and Cher and the Smothers brothers.
Both actors mentioned working with Mel Blanc, someone who Peter Cullen remembered seeing as the only credited actor for a film he saw in a movie house as a child. Welker remembered a time when Mel Blanc said he was having trouble with his voice and ask him to take over. Cullen remembered Mel Blanc ribbing him about his wimpy dinosaur who was supposed to sound mean.
Speaking of animal sounds, Frank Welker is credited in many, many cartoons for "animals' vocal effects." Though he usually records in a group session for Transformers Prime, Welker said that for animal sounds he likes to record alone. "That way I can improv. I get on a roll," he said.
Fan Devotion
In the beginning, Peter Cullen and Frank Welker had no idea how devoted fans were to Tranformers until they visited Activision to record lines for a video game. After the session, they agreed to sign autographs on their way out. "These guys were lined up down the hall, out the door," said Cullen. Welker said his buddy was completely astonished when an Activision employee led them out to the parking lot where he asked Cullen to sign his car. "I had no idea people felt that way," Cullen said. "It's an honor to be re-cast as Optimus Prime, every time."
Feature Films
Not only do they play Transformers on the small screen, but also in the big screen movies directed by Michael Bay. "The process is completely backwards," Frank Welker said. For Transformers Prime, they're shown the cartoon but the animation is based on their line recordings as a group. For movies like Transformers: Dark of the Moon, they record without the benefit of playing off their castmates. They must fit their line recordings to match the film.
Obviously there's a difference in acting techniques between live action and animated projects. "When [live action] actors come in to record their lines for Transformers Prime, they're humbled," said Frank Welker, because the process is so foreign to them and the cast has already established a comradery. He said you can always tell someone who doesn't have voice-over experience. "They turn to you when they say their line," he said, instead of talking into the microphone.
Regardless of whether they're recording lines for TV cartoons, feature films or video games, these gentlemen are consummate professionals, loving their work. "The decision to focus on voice-over work was the best decision I ever made," said Peter Cullen. "I have no regreats." Neither do we.
DVD Release
Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Arcee, Ratchet, Bulkhead and many others are back to "roll out" against Megatron's latest attempt to conquer Earth. And Megatron proves to be more powerful than ever, having acquired a rare element that allows him mastery over life itself. Optimus Prime and the Autobots may be few against the Decepticon hordes, but they find increased strength through bonds forged with three human teenagers.
On December 6, 2011, Shout! Factory, in collaboration with Hasbro, will release Transformers Prime: Darkenss Rising on DVD, featuring the entire five action-packed episodes edited together in a seamless, riveting movie and special bonus content that includes animatics and a special look at concept designs for characters and backgrounds.Transformers Prime: Darkenss Rising boasts an all-star voice cast, including Peter Cullen, Frank Welker, Steve Blum, Jeffrey Combs and Dwayne Johnson.

Franchise left tackles don't come around every day. Neither do No. 1 wide receivers. So why are the Chargers acting so lax regarding the contracts of OLT Marcus McNeill and WR Vincent Jackson? Your guess is as good as mine.
With the team's minicamp getting under way this week, McNeill, Jackson, WR Malcom Floyd and OLB Shawne Merriman — San Diego's four remaining unsigned restricted free agents — are all conspicuous by their absence. None has agreed to his one-year tender offer, and it doesn't sound like any of them is planning to do so in the immediate future.
That's because each one believes he has done enough to earn a long-term deal, which brings with it both financial and job security. After all, this quartet has been with the club for a number of years, helping the Chargers become the dominant team in the AFC West. But that hasn't swayed the opinion of GM A.J. Smith one bit. He apparently placed a lock on the franchise's proverbial wallet at the beginning of the offseason, then threw away the key.
Smith's reasons for being careful with the Spanos family's money are understandable. For one, the current CBA situation and possibility of a 2011 lockout have caused many teams to think twice about handing out lucrative contracts containing loads of guaranteed dollars. Obviously, no owner wants to be doling out hefty paychecks next season if there's no football. Also, the Chargers have another group of integral players set to become free agents a year from now, including TE Antonio Gates, ILB Stephen Cooper and FS Eric Weddle. If the Bolts spend all their money now, they'll risk being strapped for cash when this trio is due to hit the market.
But while Smith's logic for holding off on long-term deals may make sense, it doesn't make it the best course of action when it comes to negotiating with two of San Diego's premier players. One look at the GM's track record shows that he enjoys playing hardball with free agents, a strategy that has worked frequently. However, McNeill and Jackson aren't just any free agents, and telling them that they're not worthy of extensions could wind up being a major mistake.
Since coming into the league in 2006, McNeill has been a stalwart at left tackle for an extremely effective offense, making two Pro Bowls and keeping QB Philip Rivers on his feet. An upper-echelon player at one of the toughest positions to fill, he has been an admirable blind-side protector for his $92 million quarterback, and at just 26 years old, he has many terrific seasons still ahead of him. Considering his importance to the squad and the significant drop-off behind him on the depth chart, McNeill is more than deserving of a multiyear deal.
Jackson, meanwhile, is coming off back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons and has scored 16 touchdowns over the past two years. A giant at 6-5, 230 pounds, he's both a deep threat and a quality intermediate target, not to mention Rivers' favorite wideout. Just hitting his prime at age 27, Jackson has established himself as the anchor of this receiving corps. Some off-field driving incidents could result in a suspension to begin 2010, but that's the only baggage he carries. Without him, the Bolts' offense almost surely would take a major step back.
By not agreeing to contract extensions with this pair prior to '10, Smith is risking one or both players sitting out a major chunk of the regular season, especially if he rescinds their RFA tenders, which he can do if they don't sign by June 15. Such a move would result in major pay cuts for McNeill and Jackson this season, and it very possibly could sour them enough on the organization that they decide to sign elsewhere after becoming UFAs next year. Is that potential outcome really worth playing hardball over?
Smith has made a slew of good decisions during his seven-year tenure as the Bolts' general manager — one look at the Chargers' record over that span is proof. Even choosing not to offer long-term contracts to Floyd and Merriman is probably the intelligent tactic, as both players have sufficient question marks to make them gambles. Without Smith, San Diego likely wouldn't be the dominant franchise it has been for the better part of six years.
This time, though, the savvy GM is showing poor judgment. McNeill and Jackson are two of the primary reasons for the team's offensive success, and there's no sensible explanation as to why they shouldn't remain in San Diego for years to come. The club's window of opportunity to win a Super Bowl already was starting to close, but it very well might slam shut if these two exit the equation.
There are times to play tough, and then there are times to cave in. If Smith opts to stick to his guns in this instance, Chargers fans have reason to be concerned about the future.

The Vikings have big issues to tackle this offseason, including the hiring of a new head coach. And the decision to keep or move on from Leslie Frazier will have a major say in the defensive direction of the team from there. Keep Frazier, and the Vikings can expect to remain a 4-3 "over" defense with cover-2 and Tampa-2 principles. Choose someone else, and all bets are off.
But even if Frazier stays, expect some changes on defense — perhaps significant ones on all three levels.
On the line, DE Ray Edwards is a free agent and might not return. He could outprice himself for the Vikings, seeking big money at a position where top pass rushers often get paid beyond their value. The Vikings have Brian Robison, who has been effective in limited snaps, and the emerging Everson Griffen, who could step up in Edwards' place. NT Pat Williams, although he says he wants to play beyond this season, might not be a part of the team's plans, which would open a hole inside.
Linebacker is probably the position that would undergo the fewest changes, but both SLB Chad Greenway and WLB Ben Leber are free agents. Greenway is expected to be a priority for the team, but Leber might not return.
The secondary almost certainly will see changes, and safety is the area of biggest need. FS Madieu Williams simply hasn't been the playmaker the team expected when he arrived from Cincinnati, and there is no other ideal replacement on the roster. Strong safety is far from an idea situation, either, with Hussain Abdullah a solid but hardly entrenched fixture. Right corner also has been a problem all year, and even with rookie Chris Cook likely to be in line for a starting spot, he could use some form of insurance. In addition, CB depth remains a concern.
The defense hardly has been the biggest issue this season, but it hasn't been the lockdown unit of the recent past, either. Whether or not Frazier returns, you can expect to see some changes on this side of the ball next season.

That blows. I assume the 5D3 is one of those Canon bodies I'll try the "manual hack" method to see if I can get the Bees to sync up.
I'm not sure about the 5D3, but the 1Dx certainly doesn't work with the Phottix. Since they both came out around the same time with similar design features, I would guess its possible. If that is what you are using that would seem to confirm it.
Phottix keeps hinting that they are coming out with new features for everyone with their next firmware update, but as I've told them, just get the current body Canon cameras to work. Add extra features later AFTER your lineup is functional.
I would really like to see this system work, but so far it is nothing but money ill spent.

Albany Dougherty Drug Agents say the suspect raced against traffic on busy East Oakridge Drive at speeds up to 85 miles an hour before he stopped and threw a kilo of cocaine into the Flint River. And it was all caught on police dashcam video.
On South Jackson at East Oakridge the drug suspect got more desperate as two ADDU patrol cars were right behind him. The cameras in those two cars show how fortunate it was that no one was hurt before he was stopped.
Video from the Albany Dougherty Drug Unit shows law enforcement move in to stop that 2013 Dodge Challenger.
Just after four drug agents tried to pull over that car for traffic violation, but he started this five minute long chase.
After running through the store parking lot, the suspect heads up the wrong side of Oakridge and then into the divider lane. Reaching up to 85 miles an hour, look at the cars he speeds by on both sides.
Suddenly as he reaches the bridge over the Flint River, seeing cops ahead, the suspect cuts hard left, over the curb.
From the second ADDU car now, you can see the patrol car right behind the drug suspect, and then he cuts across traffic. Watch as the driver jumps out of the moving car and throws a package into the river. Then he immediately surrenders.
That driver was 43 year old Gregory Greene of Albany. And he threw a kilo of cocaine worth about $120,000 off the bridge. But what Greene did not realize, the coke was vacuum sealed in several layers of plastic wrap and freezer bags, and then coated with bees wax.
ADDU Commander Major Bill Berry said "Because it was so well sealed, you could not get any kind of odor from it. And that also prevented it from taking on water or absorbing water and sinking. And it just floated right around."
While drug agents watched the package from the bridge, the Albany Fire Department rescue boat was called in and picked up the package from the shore of the river.
Greene is being held in the Dougherty County jail without bond, and would not give drug agents any information.
Federal Drug Agents are working with ADDU now to get more information about this large amount of cocaine in Albany.
Berry said "We got this one from where it may have been going. But my concern is where it came from. And that's what DEA Columbus and we are concerned about and looking into."
A frightening chase that fortunately ends well, with no one hurt, and a large amount of cocaine, intended for South Georgia streets, floating into custody.
Drug agents suspect say that cocaine package was sealed so tightly, so that drug sniffing dogs could not pick up its odor. But that good packaging prevented Greene's attempt to destroy the evidence.
Greene is charged with trafficking in cocaine and 21 traffic violations including several super speeder violations.
Drug agents fingerprinted the package to see if they can determine who else may have handled it.

Acme Furniture to show in larger space in Las Vegas
January 7, 2013-- Furniture Today,
LAS VEGAS — Full-line furniture resource Acme Furniture will take a larger space at the winter Las Vegas Market, which will allow the company to showcase more new and inline goods.
The company is moving from to a 31,000-square-foot showroom in C-1401, two floors up from its former 20,000-square-foot space.
The 14th floor space was previously occupied by case goods resources SLF and Pulaski Furniture and sister company Prime Resources International, a leather resource. George Revington, president and CEO of parent company Home Meridian International, said the company will not show at the January market and is pursuing other strategies and growth initiatives, although he declined to elaborate at this stage.
Acme officials said the move is response to the growth of the company's business and the need for additional space to show its product line and introductions. Gabriel Pu, senior vice president of sales, said Acme was projecting a sales gain of 20% in 2012, on top of growth it experienced in the previous two years.
The new space is part of a plan to capture additional growth in 2013, Pu said.
"Business has been good for us, but we also feel the whole industry is picking up a little bit," he said. "By talking to our reps and customers, it looks like 2013 will be better than this year.... With the industry turning around a little bit, we will grow even more. That's definitely the goal."
Pu estimated that about 40% of the floor space will be devoted to new product in every category in its line, including master and youth bedroom, dining room, occasional furniture, upholstery and accessories. He said that about half of the floor space will feature inline goods.
The showroom also will have a café and meeting space for sales reps and other company officials.
A grand opening ceremony is planned for opening day.

The New York Jets will continue to be under the microscope after the completion of their "Hard Knocks" series on HBO.
A female reporter for a Mexican television network was made to feel "very uncomfortable" when she visited the Jets' practice Saturday. She was greeted by some catcalls from Jets players in the locker room while she waited to interview Jets QB Mark Sanchez, who is of Mexican descent.
Ines Sainz of Mexico's TV Azteca, whom the network promotes as both a journalist and a model, expressed her discomfort on her Twitter account and said she had spoken to the league office about the incident.
"I already spoke to the NFL and it will be up to them to decide whether or not there will be consequences!!" she tweeted.
Sainz was in the press box at the Ravens-Jets Monday-night game but was not seen in the locker room after the game.
