From the US Marine Corps to leading Georgia Tech's linebacking corps, Joe Speed is the devil dog teaching our guys how to hit the other guy so hard they'll feel it "from the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli!"

When the GTAA is strapped for cash, Coach Paul Johnson doesn't whine. He mans up, gets off his curmudgeonly hind parts, and wins $125,000 for a second straight year to ease the burden. Because he had to. Because he can't stand your whining anymore. Rather than try to shut you up he'll just take away your excuses. Golf Tournament? Money. "There, now shutup and adjust the budget so I can go win football games." CPJ's legendary skills led partner Jon Barry to say the following about a clutch chip shot to secure the win: "We knew we had to make par on the toughest hole in Georgia and we got it done. It was a lot of fun." He was then beaten with a driver for not "acting like he'd been there before" while CPJ smoked a stogy and continued not to care. GT can now allocate about 100k in scholly money for other purposes (debt relief, paying the NCAA, etc.) for the second year in a row, because CPJ doesn't want to hear another word about our "problems." Just shut up and win things like he does. Go Jackets!

|Pets teach love
By Mary Friedel-Hunt
Last week Bentley was running a fever of 104.7°, equivalent to about 102° in a human being. On medication for about a week for an infection caused by what we think was a tick-related hot spot, he refused to eat or interact. So off to the vet we went for the third time in 10 days. Blood tests and an examination proved negative and the vet thought he might be having a reaction to the antibiotic. So he gave him an injection of antihistamine and steroid to bring the fever down and by the evening Bentley was eating rice and beef though still lethargic. By Friday he was himself again with no fever.Bentley is a 10-year-old golden retriever.

Holy Crap! Dogs Pee And Poop In Alignment With Earth's Magnetic Field, According To Science
A team of Czech and German life scientists found that dogs are sensitive to the Earth's magnetic field.
The scientists spent two years watching dogs do their business a total of 7,500 times. The dogs, which had free reign of a field and were not on leashes, showed a marked preference for aligning themselves along the north-south axis to poop and pee. These findings did not change based on breed or gender, and dogs appeared to sense minor, normal fluctuations in the Earth's magnetic field.
The results have even the scientists stumped. The study reads, ŌĆ£It is still enigmatic why the dogs do align at all, whether they do it ŌĆśconsciouslyŌĆÖ (i.e., whether the magnetic field is sensorial perceived (the dogs ŌĆśsee,ŌĆÖ ŌĆśhearŌĆÖ or ŌĆśsmellŌĆÖ the compass direction or perceive it as a haptic stimulus)) or whether its reception is controlled on the vegetative level (they ŌĆśfeel better/more comfortable or worse/less comfortableŌĆÖ in a certain direction).ŌĆØ
Despite the remaining questions, experts believe the findings are important. Animals like birds, fish and turtles are known to sense the magnetic field and utilize it during migration. However, this is the first time magnetic sensitivity has been proven in dogs, which may say more about wild relatives like wolves, foxes and coyotes than today's domesticated dogs.
The study says dog owners shouldn't try to replicate the findings. Dogs are more inclined to follow cues from their humans and surroundings than to follow base instincts. So when they're on leashes, surrounded by fences and walls that aren't necessarily running north-south, they're likely to ignore any sense of magnetism.
The complete results are published in Frontiers in Zoology.

Warriors sign James Michael McAdooMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports9 hrs ago
Undrafted free-agent forward James Michael McAdoo signed a one-year contract paying the minimum with the Golden State Warriors, his agent James Tanner told Yahoo Sports on Tuesday.
McAdoo averaged 14.2 points and 6.8 rebounds as a junior at North Carolina last season before entering the 2014 NBA draft. After going undrafted, the 6-foot-9, 230-pounder averaged nine points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.2 blocks for the Warriors at the Las Vegas summer league.
McAdoo and Warriors forward Harrison Barnes were teammates at North Carolina during the 2011-12 season. McAdoo's father is also the second cousin of Hall of Famer Bob McAdoo.

Russian shooting guard Dmitry Kulagin is receiving interest from the Sacramento Kings and is seriously considering coming to the NBA, a source told Yahoo Sports.
Kulagin, 22, averaged 7.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.2 assists for Russia BC Triumph Lyubertsy last season. The 6-foot-6, 195-pound free agent was not selected in the 2014 NBA draft and is no longer draft eligible.
Kulagin is currently on Russia BC Zenit Saint Petersburg's roster. The Moscow native was also on the World Team roster during the 2012 Hoop Summit.

Source: Thunder trade Hasheem Thabeet to SixersMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports7 days ago
The Philadelphia 76ers acquired center Hasheem Thabeet and cash from the Oklahoma City Thunder, sources tell Yahoo Sports on Tuesday. Thabeet is also expected to be immediately waived.
Thabeet, the second overall pick by the Memphis Grizzlies in the 2009 NBA draft, is making $1.25 million in the final year of his contract. The seldom-used 7-foot-3, 263-pounder averaged 1.2 points and 1.7 rebounds last season with OKC and will become a free agent assuming he clears waivers.
The Thunder's roster is loaded with big men in Serge Ibaka, Kendrick Perkins, Steven Adams, Nick Collison and rookie Mitch McGary. The Thunder get a trade exception, which they have a year to use, and a 2015 protected second-round draft pick.
ESPN.com first reported the trade.

USA Basketball announces World Cup rosterMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports11 days ago
USA Basketball's men's national team trimmed its Basketball World Cup roster by cutting Damian Lillard, Chandler Parsons, Gordon Hayward and Kyle Korver late Friday.
With the cuts, USA Basketball trimmed its roster to the needed 12-man team ahead of the Aug. 30 start of the FIBA tournament in Spain. The final squad includes Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose, Golden State Warriors guards Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, Cleveland Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving, Toronto Raptors guard DeMar DeRozan, Houston Rockets guard James Harden, Denver Nuggets forward Kenneth Faried, Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins, New Orleans Pelicans center Anthony Davis, Kings forward Rudy Gay, Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond and Brooklyn Nets center Mason Plumlee. USA Basketball announced the roster after its 112-86 exhibition victory over Puerto Rico on Friday evening in New York.
Lillard was the only NBA All-Star of the four players cut. Friday The Portland Trail Blazers point guard took the decision in stride.
"It's nothing I did or didn't do. No hard feelings. Wish them the best," Lillard told Yahoo Sports via text message.
Shawn Marion to join LeBron James on CavaliersMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports16 days ago
Free-agent forward Shawn Marion has decided to join the Cleveland Cavaliers, a source told Yahoo Sports.
Marion decided to join forces with LeBron James in Cleveland, passing on opportunities to sign with the Indiana Pacers, Miami Heat or the Los Angeles Clippers. The Cavaliers are expected to announce the signing of the four-time All-Star to a deal for the veteran's minimum on Monday.
Marion averaged 10.4 points and 6.5 rebounds last season for the Dallas Mavericks.
Marion made his decision after he met with his representatives in Chicago following USA Basketball's exhibition victory over Brazil late Saturday, a league source said. Cleveland general manager David Griffin was also at the game. Marion and Griffin have ties dating to their days with the Phoenix Suns.
The Cavs have dramatically remade their roster, signing James, Mike Miller and James Jones and reaching an agreement in principle to acquire Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star forward Kevin Love.
Derrick Rose receives happy homecoming in ChicagoMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports17 days ago
CHICAGO – After two quarters of Team USA's exhibition against Brazil, Derrick Rose had made only one shot. He'd also missed a wide-open, two-handed dunk. Doubts likely had begun to fill the heads of Chicago Bulls fans.
But with 3:34 left in the third quarter, Rose crossed over Brazil's Raul Neto, jumped in the lane off his oft-troubled left knee, switched hands in the air with the ball and scored on a pretty lay-in over Anderson Varejao. The U.S. players on the bench jumped up in excitement.
Bulls fans had reason to be confident Rose had returned to form during this exhibition at his home arena.
"I just saw an opening and I went for it," Rose said. "I'm used to people cheering, so I didn't let it get to me or anything like that. It's just me playing how I normally play."
Paul George optimistic about recovery from gruesome leg injuryMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports18 days ago
INDIANAPOLIS – As soon as Paul George crumpled in a heap under the basket during Team USA's scrimmage two weeks ago in Las Vegas, he knew something was horribly wrong.
The bone protruding through the skin of his right leg told him as much. As did the pain coursing through him.
"It felt like gasoline was on my leg and someone lit a match," George said. "Just internally, just on fire. My leg felt like it was in flames. It was a quick five minutes and then my body went into shock, and I immediately took my mind off of what just happened thanks to my docs, my family, both of my parents coming by my side, my teammates coming over.
"…It just felt like a burning sensation throughout my whole leg."
George met Friday with reporters for the first time since breaking his right leg during USA Basketball's scrimmage on Aug. 1. The Indiana Pacers guard used crutches to walk with his right leg encased in a cast from the knee down. The two-time All-Star has a rod in his right leg, which was broken in two places, with pins holding it together in his knee and ankle. He also has begun meeting with a team sports psychologist.
USA Basketball cancels Senegal trip because of Ebola virusMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports18 days ago
USA Basketball has canceled a pre-FIBA World Cup trip to Senegal on Aug. 27 because of the Ebola virus outbreak in West Africa, a spokesman for the organization told Yahoo Sports on Friday.
USA Basketball planned to take its first trip to Dakar for an all-day event that included clinics, tours and a reception just days before the World Cup begins in Spain. The decision, made over the past 48 hours, was viewed as tough and disappointing, a source said.

DeMarcus Cousins injures knee in Team USA's first practice after losing Paul GeorgeMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports19 days ago
CHICAGO – Near the end of their first practice together since Paul George broke his leg, Team USA players nervously watched another player go down.
Cousins injured his right knee after tangling with two other players while trying to get to a loose ball during USA Basketball's practice in preparation for the upcoming World Cup on Thursday. An MRI revealed no structural damage, and USA Basketball officials listed Cousins as day to day. Cousins didn't speak with reporters, but walked out of the Quest Multisport Complex without aid.
"I talked to him on the way out. I think he will be OK," said Kings forward Rudy Gay, who was added to the U.S. pool of players last week. "I hope he is just being a drama queen. …I think he will be fine.
"I've never seen him go down and stay down. I think in the back of his head … everybody is thinking about what happened before [with George]. I think he will be OK."
Ten games to watch during NBA's 2014-15 seasonMarc J. Spears at Yahoo Sports20 days ago
10. Lionel Hollins returns to "Stone Age" Memphis (Feb. 10): Hollins was relieved of his duties with the Grizzlies after leading the franchise to the 2013 Western Conference finals. Jason Kidd's surprising departure from Brooklyn opened the door for Hollins' return to coaching. Hollins has since compared Memphis to the "Stone Age," saying people there "move slow, they talk slow, and they drag their words out." His comments could make for an interesting reception from the home fans.
9. Lance Stephenson returns to Indiana (Nov. 19): Stephenson shocked the Pacers by signing a three-year, $27 million deal with the Charlotte Hornets this offseason. The Pacers offered a more lucrative five-year, $44 million deal, despite Stephenson's immature acts in the postseason. Paul George's broken leg and resulting loss for the season made Stephenson's departure even more difficult for Indiana to stomach.

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!
(The ad below will not display on your printed page)
You've finally gotten the perfect schedule: Maybe you work from home two days a week, or perhaps you've gone part-time. But now you've got another problem: colleagues who seem jealous of your arrangement. What's the best way to deal?
Richard Wessler, PhD, professor of psychology at Pace University, in Pleasantville, New York: "Show that you're a team player and try to be helpful to your colleagues so that they recognize your contribution and won't worry so much about your hours. If you're occasionally needed at the office when you're not scheduled to work, for example, make yourself available."
Linda Talley, author of Business Finesse: Dealing with Sticky Situations in the Workplace (Leadership U. Press, 1998): "Good, open communication is usually the best way to ease any tensions at work. Make sure your colleagues know the reason you work the schedule you do: that you've got small children at home or that you're taking care of an aging parent. Let them know you've made tradeoffs -- like taking a pay cut or forgoing benefits."
Bob Nelson, author of 1001 Ways to Take Initiative at Work (Workman, 1999): "Be sensitive to the fact that your coworkers may need to cover for you when you're away. Let them know how much you appreciate it. Say thank you once in a while to a person who pinch-hits for you; you might even bring her flowers. Offer to fill in for her if she ever needs to be away. Invest in the relationship: It's hard for someone to resent you if she sees you value her."

RALEIGH — Arctic air is expected to bring temperatures at or near freezing for a second night from Wake County to the Tennessee border, meaning farmers and apple growers have a second day to worry.
Temperatures in the Triangle generally held a few degrees above freezing overnight Tuesday, but readings in western areas were as low as 24 in Boone at 6 a.m.
Readings like that are a threat to early blooming varieties of apple trees.
The freeze warning issued by forecasters in Raleigh and Blacksburg, Va., for Thursday said temperatures could slide below 32 degrees from midnight Wednesday until about 9 a.m. and perhaps be colder than Wednesday mornings readings.
Strawberry growers were likely to need woven fabric row covers that agriculture experts had advised them to pull over their plants for Tuesday night.
Apple growers in the western counties were in danger of severe damage to early blooming trees as that region looked at two mornings of below freezing temperatures, Steve McArtney, a horticultural sciences associate professor at North Carolina State University, said from his office in Mills River.
Wheat growers were keeping their fingers crossed that a wet, cold winter might turn out to be a blessing because their crop is about three weeks behind normal and may be immune to a brief freeze, Randy Weisz, a crop science professor at N.C. State and an expert on small grains, said.
Some farmers have planted corn already, but it should survive.
As for beans, Theyre going to die if they are in places where it gets to the 28 degrees that the National Weather Service said is possible, according to state Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services field agronomist Don Nicholson.
Late cold is not something strawberry farmers have never dealt with, but it requires hard work when it happens.
With a minimum of 28 degrees Fahrenheit or colder, I would have to recommend row cover protection, E. Barclay Poling wrote Tuesday morning on his website for strawberry growers.
They pay attention to Poling, a professor emeritus at N.C. State University and interim executive director of the N.C. Strawberry Association.
Once you reach harvest season, you should not have to be worrying about FREEZES! Poling wrote, but nature was not among his readers.
The states 800,000 acres of winter wheat crop might be at risk if this winter had not stalled growth somewhat, said Weisz, who also has a website for growers.
I think were going to sneak by tonight, Weisz said, because wheat is at a stage where it can handle high-20s temperatures for a couple of hours.
But farmers wont know positively for a week or so, after seed heads begin to push out of the stalks and growers can see if they show any signs of freezing, Weisz said.
Corn should survive because, even though some leaves may be out of the ground and will freeze, the growing parts of the plants are still below ground and will just start over, the agriculture departments Nicholson said.
The apple crop faces a serious risk, McArtney said.
The biggest crop in the mountain region, Rome apples, have not yet begun to bloom and can handle the cold, he said. However, earlier crops, such as Gala apples, have begun to flower.
Data show that 24 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes can kill 10 percent of an apple crop and 25 degrees for a half-hour can kill 90 percent of the flowers, McArtney said.
In the field, the temperature is all over the place all night, McArtney said. It may be at its lowest for only a few minutes or it might be for longer.
Itll be a very telling time for apple growers, McArtney said, and there is nothing they can do but wait.
They have seen it before.
A cold snap in 2012 came after a mild winter had encouraged crops to grow faster than usual.
In 2007, the Easter freeze damaged a lot of the states fruit and wheat crops, N.C. State experts recalled.

The Cubs claimed right-hander Carlos Gutierrez off waivers from the Twins on Wednesday, designating catcher Anthony Recker for assignment.
Gutierrez, 26, went 15-20 with a 4.11 ERA the last five seasons in the Twins' Minor League system after being selected by the club in the first round of the 2008 First-Year Player Draft. He has made 136 Minor League appearances, 32 of which have been starts.
The 6-foot-3, 230-pound righty went 2-2 with a 5.06 ERA in 10 relief appearances last season with Triple-A Rochester, before a right shoulder injury ended his season in June. He had surgery in July and resumed throwing earlier this month.
Recker was acquired by the Cubs from the Athletics on Aug. 27, batting .167 in nine games with the Cubs.

Timing is everything in debate over Panther stadium upgrade
Asking area residents to pay more taxes to support renovations to the stadium at a time when the economy is in a weak recovery is poor timing.
The Panthers are performing only slightly better than the economy, so it's also a poor time to expect support from fans.
Unless the renovation plans are required for safety or security, they should be put on hold pending significant improvements in performance of the economy or the Panthers – or preferably, both.
Alden Segrest
Denver, N.C.
In response to "Restaurants love Panthers, not tax" (Feb. 21):
You're the one who wants to watch football, you pay for it
It seems totally unfair to ask 97 or 98 percent of the population to pay for the entertainment of 2 or 3 percent. Most people will never go to the games because of PSLs and the high cost of tickets.
The N.C. restaurant industry is right to oppose taxing 98 percent of the people just so 2 percent can have their entertainment. And that's all it is, bottom line: entertainment!
Mel Helms
In response to "CMS board to ask for $33.7 million to boost safety" (Feb. 27):
Let those who buy guns pay for added security at CMS schools
Since we have guns throughout our society, we should put armed guards and cameras in schools. And we should place a special sales tax on all guns and ammunition sales to pay for it.
We tax gasoline to pay for roads.
We tax cigarettes to pay for the extra medical expenses.
So why not tax guns?
Robert D. Culbertson
In response to "Duke won't be repaid from DNC" (March 1):
Hard to miss the irony of Duke's 'corporate cash' paying for DNC
The irony was thicker than my newspaper Friday when I read "shareholders will foot $6 million of the (DNC) cost" and "The DNC host committee struggled to raise money under fundraising rules set by the White House that banned corporate contributions."
Bill Cleveland
In response to "Looming federal cuts to hit hospitals hard" (March 1):
Hospitals hurt by sequester should dip into their savings
The hospitals facing financial losses should do as I and others have done during the financial mess – dip into their savings.
As the article a few weeks ago stated, Carolinas Healthcare System – a "nonprofit" – earned a profit in 2011.
Doctors and clinics can do the same. This country and the citizens cannot continue to spend money we do not have.
Bill Lane
Still waiting for the president to put forth a plan to cut spending
When it comes to dealing with our ruinous federal deficit, President Obama is long on lofty rhetoric but short on real practical proposals.
There is general agreement that we need to reduce federal spending. The president opposes the sequester in favor of targeted budget cuts combined with more tax revenue. Fine. In our system of government, the president proposes and congress disposes.
President Obama should put forward specific legislation and insist on a congressional vote. Then, we could debate a real proposal, not ephemeral concepts.
Real leadership is stepping forward to get things done, not sitting back and criticizing others.
Steven P. Nesbit
In response to "Nun looks at future of the church" (Feb. 23 Faith & Values):
Nuns on the Bus leader wrong about 'winning' on health care
Sister Simone Campbell, organizer of "Nuns on the Bus" says "we won on health care."
But "we" clearly cannot include those Catholics who do not wish to pay for other people's abortions.
Sister would fit right in with the current administration, where as long as you pretend to care for the marginalized, there is no need to "live in the rules."
Jack Peele
In response to "$9K Oscar gown an odd display of excess in this economy" (March 1 Forum):
I know where Obama stands on education; that's what matters
It would have never occurred to me that Michelle Obama wearing an expensive dress for her Oscar presentation was sending a message of excess.
Never for a minute did that $9,000 dress make me forget which side President Obama stands on things like the social safety net, minimum wage, and oh yes, education funding!
Kelly Stevens
There were plenty of excesses at the Oscars to go around
Of all the excesses displayed at the Oscars, it's interesting and quite suspect that Forum writer Linda Ramge zeroed-in on the First Lady's dress.
Apparently, she missed the $2.5 million worth of jewels worn by Jennifer Garner; the $354,300 worn by Anne Hathaway; $1.5 million worn by Naomi Watts; or the $1 million worn by Zoe Saldana.
If writers are going to complain about excesses in tough economic times, they should present a balanced viewpoint. Otherwise, one may think the writer is choosing persons to criticize based on some hidden agenda.

The SWAT officers who carried out a dramatic rescue of Gwinnett County firefighters talked to FOX 5 about their ordeal.Sgt. Jeff Johnston, Officer Nick Boney and Sgt. Jason Teague were members of the Gwinnett County Police Department SWAT team called to a Suwanee home on April 10 after the homeowner held several firefighters hostage. The suspect, Lauren Brown, called 911 claiming he was ill, according to authorities. He then took four of the first-responders hostage when they arrived at the home. After more than three hours of negotiation, Johnson, Boney and Teague moved in, shooting and killing Brown when it became clear the 55-year-old man wouldn't release the hostages.Conditions inside the home made the situation even more dangerous for the SWAT team members."The degree of smoke and debris that was in the room was something that nobody could have planned for," Boney said. "But when you put the skills of our team in a situation like that, we are still going to fight through it and make sure that we finish the mission."Teague was shot during the shootout with Brown. He is expected to make a full recovery and has high praise for the Gwinnett Police Department and SWAT team members. "If training and just protocol…and the way we conduct business - if that had not been tested and tested and tested and practiced and rehearsed, we would not have been successful as were," Teague said.Teague underwent a bone graft to repair the damage to his arm in June. It's estimated that he would have four to five months for recovery and rehabilitation.

The US is facing a new housing crisis. No, it has nothing to do with subprime mortgages or bloated home equity balances. This time the nation is dealing with shortages of rental housing, a problem that will become increasingly acute in years to come and may result in a material drag on economic growth.
Americans are simply not building enough homes to accommodate the population's needs. The number of housing units completed per capita in the United States remains a fraction of historical averages. The slight improvements from the lows of 2011 have barely scratched the surface.
Similarly, in spite of recent increases, residential construction spending as a fraction of the GDP remains at the lowest levels than at any time since WWII.
At the same time demand has been on the rise. As an indicator, the chart below shows Google search frequency for rent related phrases.

Week 13: Cincinnati Bengals at San Diego Chargers
Date/Time: Dec. 1; 4:25 p.m. ET
Location: Qualcomm Stadium; San Diego, California
Bengals 2012 record: 10-6 (0-1 playoffs)
Chargers 2012 record: 7-9
Offensive Rankings:
Bengals: 17th
Chargers: 24th
Bengals: 18th
Chargers: 27th
Bengals: 22nd
Chargers: 31st
Defensive Rankings:
Bengals: 7th
Chargers: 18th
Bengals: 12th
Chargers: 6th
Bengals: 6th
Chargers: 9th
Head-To-Head Record:
13-19 Chargers (6-10 in San Diego)
Offseason Additions:
Bengals: LB James Harrison, LB Aaron Maybin, TE Alex Smith, G Mike Pollak
Chargers: OT King Dunlap, CB Derek Cox, RB Danny Woodhead
Key Draft Picks:
Bengals: TE Tyler Eifert, RB Giovani Bernard, DE Margus Hunt, SS Shawn Williams
Chargers: OT D.J. Fluker, LB Manti Te'o, WR Keenan Allen
Over the last few years the Bengals haven't really been good on the West Coast. Really, before the 2011 playoff season, they struggled to beat lesser teams out west. However, in 2011 they went out to Seattle and beat a good Seahawks team and they just lost to the Broncos in Denver by two points. In 2012 they went to San Diego and beat the Chargers.
The Chargers are a better team than their 7-9 record shows and quarterback Philip Rivers, as much as I dislike him, is still one of the better passers in the league. However, the Bengals should outmatch the Chargers in this game. That doesn't mean their Week 13 matchup won't be a nail bitter, though. This is the game after the Bengals come out of their bye week so they should be well rested and ready to make a playoff push.

If you'd like to be more giving local charities say they'll take it! This time of year normally gives them an increase in donations. But we spoke with a couple charities Thursday that say the lingering winter weather has forced them to wait for that boost.
"Donations are our life blood," said Debie Coble at Goodwill. But right now donations at Goodwill, "they're slow," said Coble, "we start to be a little concerned on whether or not we have enough to get through until garage sale season starts." Because when garage sale season starts Coble said, "I would say in a lot of cases our donations almost double."
So when does that season start? Coble said, "It really is dependent on when the weather breaks." As the numbers on the thermometer increase Goodwill says their donations will increase too. Jessie Stoltzfus at Hope Ministries in South Bend agrees, spring cleaning time means more donations. But it just hasn't started yet. "Everyone's ready for spring but we don't start cleaning closets until it gets warm so maybe in April and May we'll see a little bit more of that," said Stoltzfus.
When you do start cleaning your closets keep in mind that instead of tossing your old stuff you can give some away. Hope Ministries said they could use fresh clothes especially one's for spring and summertime, bikes, alarm clocks, TV's, and everyday items like tissue's and trash bags. They can also take towels and fresh pillows but they cannot accept furniture.
Goodwill said they will take any type of textile. They'll also take small appliances that work, computers (whether they work or not), cell phones (whether they work or not), household items like pots and pans, and furniture if it's in good condition. They can't take large appliances. And Coble said while they love garage sale season they don't necessarily want everything used in your garage, "Tires, used cans of paint those kinds of things, believe it or not we get a lot of those and we have to pay then to have them disposed."
Other than that local charities are happy to take what you may toss during spring cleaning. "We love that time of year, it gets crazy busy and that's a wonderful thing," said Coble.
If you'd like to donate both organizations say no need to call ahead just drop it off.

BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) - Clint Hurdle is going to get a chance to finish a turnaround he's started with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
A person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press the Pirates are planning to extend the third-year manager through the 2014 season with a club option for 2015. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because a formal announcement is expected on Wednesday, when owner Bob Nutting addresses reporters.
The agreement was first reported by the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
Hurdle is 151-173 in two seasons with the Pirates. He was entering the final season of a 3-year deal he signed when he took over for John Russell in December, 2010. Pittsburgh went 79-83 in 2012, tied for the franchise's best record in 20 seasons, though the Pirates went through a late swoon that dropped them out of playoff contention.

You'll remember, I am sure, that St. Louis starting pitchers struggled terribly against the Brewers in their National League Championship Series. Nobody lasted more than five innings, and the starters finished the series with a 7.03 ERA.
That got a lot of attention, and made a lot of people wonder how the Cardinals could possibly contain the Rangers' hitters in the World Series.
Of course, a lot people also ignored two salient facts:
1. St. Louis starters were exceptionally unlikely to continue pitching so poorly, and
2. The Rangers' starters weren't much better against the Tigers, finishing their ALCS with a 6.59 ERA.
Of course it's all turned around in the World Series. We're five innings into Game 5, and the two teams' starting pitchers have combined for a 2.91 ERA.
Tonight, C.J. Wilson is exceptionally lucky to have allowed only one earned run. Chris Carpenter has been much better, allowing a run on Mitch Moreland's home run but not much else. And tonight we're seeing the real Chris Carpenter.
In Game 1, Carpenter gave the Cardinals six strong innings, giving up only two runs and earning the victory. But it was a cold night in St. Louis, Carpenter was usually pitching behind in the count, so he threw only seven curveballs in those six innings.
Tonight he's thrown 18 curves through five innings, and looks better than he's looked since pitching that brilliant shutout against the Phillies to clinch the Division Series.
Still, Carpenter can hardly relax, as the game's still Cardinals 2, Rangers 1 after five innings.

THREE OUT OF EVERY FOUR Homebuyers Use The Internet To Find A Home
So, why doesn't anyone visit your real estate web site?
The National Association of Realtors has predicted that this number will rise to 85% within the next five years. So, how come you can't generate more real estate leads on your own web site? The reason is simple - potential homebuyers can't even find your web site! Real estate search engine optimization is cost effective alternative to pay per click advertising that provides your web site with a greater volume of targeted traffic over a broader range of search phrases.
The Truth About Real Estate Internet Marketing
Most real estate agents make the wrong investment in their web site. They either spend a lot of money on a spiffy new real estate web design or take what seems to be the easy route and buy a real estate web site template with the same basic content and information as ten thousand real estate agents across the country.
Purchasing a real estate web site design without investing in a real estate search engine optimization and internet marketing strategy is like taking a seller client listing and not actively advertising the home.
What are the chances that a buyer will stumble upon the listing?
To succeed in real estate internet marketing you need a content rich web site and develop a concise web marketing plan that targets your region and specific customer demographic. The site not only has to reach out to potential customers, but also needs to provide you with meaningful and useful data gathering tools to turn prospects into bona fide leads and buyer clients. But where can you find the time to manage and maintain your real estate web design, work existing leads, and take care of your customers and clients?
Real Estate Search Engine Optimization Solutions
The Kosloff Group will develop a real estate web design that specifically targets your specific customer demographic using advanced copy writing techniques that will generate more customer contact and leads than traditional template web sites. Our custom real estate web design with database management system will keep your listings up-to-date, allow you to contact individual prospects, deliver drip email marketing campaigns, send newsletters, post to your real estate blog, chat live with your web visitors, and much more.
Where do these prospects come from? Long-term results are provided by developing a real estate SEO strategy that targets potential homebuyers in your market. Our real estate search engine optimization and web design strategies then help to quickly funnel your web site visitors to specific areas of interest, ultimately leading them to a "call to action" - making contact with you!
Real Estate SEO: Time, Money, Patience, and Results
Investing in a true online real estate marketing program is the most important long-term real estate marketing investment that you will ever make. Whether you are a veteran real estate agent or a rookie looking for your first sale, our priority is to provide you with the knowledge and information to develop a successful real estate internet marketing program.
We know that you have heard it all before - "Buy our real estate web site and you will be rich overnight!" We can tell you that it doesn't happen that way. But we can show that by combining your knowledge in your market and our expertise in real estate SEO, real estate web design, and online real estate marketing that this combination of services can be devastating to your competition.

According to a lighthearted study by real estate blog Movoto.com, Atlanta is the top redneck city in the country. Kansas City ranks second, followed by Oklahoma City and Nashville. The study was based on information like the number of taxidermists and gun stores per capita, number of cowboy boot stores per capita, how many NASCAR tracks are located within 30 miles of the city, and the percent of the population that did not complete high school.

CNET editors choose the best GoPro models, action cameras, and camcorders of 2014.
Built-in image stabilization and high bitrate recording make this Sony's best Action Cam yet, but there are still a few usability quirks remaining.
A tiny, point-and-shoot, full-HD video camera that's simple and fun to use, the Dimika Action Cam is a very good inexpensive option for situations in which you don't want to risk your more-expensive camera or smartphone.
As long as you respect its limitations and keep the camera steady, the Polaroid XS100i is a good easy-to-use budget-friendly option for dabbling in hands-free video.
The new app from video editing company Muvee helps you make your GoPro action videos look great on the go.
Typical price: $0.00
Joining the AS30V's new hardware features are a new waterproof housing and several accessories and mounts, bringing it closer to the competition.
The Monoprice MHD Action Camera is a very good value. You'll just have to be forgiving of its video quality.
The Sony Action Cam is a solid first effort and worth its price, but some design shortcomings may be enough to put off some potential buyers.
With Wi-Fi, an LCD, and a waterproof body, as well as some nice accessories, the Drift HD Ghost uses its features to beat back the action cam competition.
Not quite the little box or bullet-shaped body styles of other manufacturers, the UltiMate looks like a nice blend of interesting features and design.
An inexpensive option for capturing your exploits for YouTube, the Monoprice MHD Sport Wifi offers just enough value to make it an entry-level action cam worth considering.

We would like to state that, we are all still very much in support of John, and nothing as shallow as whom he chooses to se in his personal life is going to change this. We're here for the music. We're here for the long haul!

---- — DERRY — A citizen is alleging something happened at Town Administrator John Anderson's home last Thursday night that led him to file a complaint with police.
Anderson was placed on paid leave late Friday pending an investigation into the complaint by New Hampshire State Police.
"We've been tasked with tasked with conducting an investigation into some allegations against Mr. Anderson," N.H. State Police Capt. David Parenteau said yesterday. "A complaint was made by a citizen involving a contact he had with a person believed to be Mr. Anderson on Thursday evening, July 11, at Mr. Anderson's home."
Parenteau said the complainant is an adult and he went to Derry police with his complaint.
"Derry PD contacted us," Parenteau said, adding that was not unusual. "I'm sure they would do an unbiased investigation, but it's often best to defer to another agency when it involves someone in a high level of management — a selectmen, councilman, town administrator."
He said such a move is common when an investigation focuses on a town official.
"Derry police Chief (Edward Garone) determined that he would have the appearance of a conflict of interest because he is subordinate to the town administrator," Budreau said.
Parenteau is the commander of the state police Investigative Services Section.
"We're looking at it to see if there is a violation of law, hence the investigation," he said. "We're investigating the complaint at this time. At this point, we can't release any further information regarding the substance of the complaint.
The Town Council met for less than an hour in an emergency, nonpublic session late Friday afternoon. They emerged and announced Anderson had been put on leave, that Larry Budreau, the town's human resources director and assistant town administrator had been named acting town administrator and that Budreau would be the only one speaking for the town on the issue.
Anderson, 50, was not at that meeting and had worked only part of the day Friday, Budreau said.
Anderson has not returned phone messages seeking comment.
He's been Derry's town administrator since October 2010, when he was chosen from a field of 121 candidates. He came here after a 10-year stint as town manager in Boothbay Harbor, Maine.
Anderson was hired at just over $100,000 a year, but now earns an annual salary of $124,962.
Budreau hasn't had much to say about the situation, citing the ongoing police investigation. But he has emphasized the complaint does not involve town business— other than the fact Anderson is the town's top official.
The paid administrative leave is open-ended, according to Budreau, pending the outcome of the police investigation.
"His status will change only after the state police investigation is complete and the Town Council has the opportunity to evaluate the information and make a decision," Budreau said Tuesday.
He said the town would have no further comments on the allegations against Anderson.
"This is in order to protect the integrity of the investigation and Mr. Anderson's rights as a citizen," Budreau said.
Parenteau said yesterday he did not think it would be a lengthy investigation.
"We're interviewing the complainant and any witnesses who may have observed any contact," he said. "We're very methodical and we want to make sure all the proper parties are consulted, interviewed and that we ensure we've covered all the bases."

Creighton opens cross country season
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- The Creighton men finished eighth and the women seventh at the Augustana Twilight Invite on late Friday evening. The University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Midland, Doane, Hastings, Wayne State and the College of St. Mary were among those the 17 teams that participated in the evening run.
The race was the first under the direction of head coach Matt Rogers, who was hired to lead both Creighton cross country programs in July.
UNL won team honors on the men's side and host school Augustana finished first on the women's side.
Trevor Vidlak finished the four mile men's run first overall with a time of 18:18. Runa Falch of Augustana won the women's 3K event with a 16:16.
Newcomer Maddie Ivy led the Bluejays in the three mile run. She finished 18th with a time of 17:35. Courtney Sawle finished 31st with a time of 17:51. Vanessa Miller finished 49th with a time of 18:18. Emily Mauser (18:25) and Emily Peterson (18:27) finished 58th and 59th respectively.
For the men Garrett Kenyon was the top Bluejay. He finished the four mile run 18th with a time of 19:30. Drew
Prescott finished 43rd with a time of 20:15. Tin Nguyen placed third for the Jays. His time of 20:42 was good enough for 61st place. Daniel Poston finished just three spots behind Nguyen with a time of 20:44. One second and two spots behind Poston was newcomer Eric Klein who rounded out the men's top five.
The Jays compete in the Woody Greeno/Nebraska Invite on Sept. 21 in Lincoln.

All Stacy Justice wants to do is recover from the bizarre couple of weeks she's had - the whirlwind kicked off by the fire at her cousin's bar, the Black Opal. But just when life is settling down, 14-year-old Ivy appears on her doorstep, claiming to be her sister. Ivy insists their mother is in danger and Stacy's magic is the key to saving her. Sure, Ivy shares Stacy's fiery hair and green eyes - but is she really her sister? And can the secretive teen be trusted with the family magic?
Then a man turns up dead at the bed-and-breakfast run by Stacy's grandmother, the family's Blessed Book goes missing, and it seems someone is out to kill Stacy - again. So she has no choice but to follow Ivy's lead.

I'm a 30-something paranormal, mystery, and humor enthusiast. For me, the main character is the most important part of a book.
"Easy, breezy, beautiful..."
That's the phrase that comes to mind when I think of this series. It has a little bit of everything to please everyone. Some romance, action, danger, a little witchcraft, crazy family. This would be a hilarious sit-com (minus the impending doom in each book).
"Easy listen"
The second book starts off with the ending of the first book which would help if it was a while in between listening to them. I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first one. I guess it was because I couldn't get into Ivy's character. I just didn't find her antics that funny for her age. That aside I did enjoy the rest of the characters and did find at least a few funny spots. I really enjoyed finding out who the real guardian was.

Now that I have had a good week to absorb the album and sink my teeth into it, I can honestly say that this is the best Mastodon Album to date and I consider myself a big fan and own all their material. If you are looking for brutal and angry, short blasts of molten metal songs, look to the older stuff. If you are looking for a well thought out, layered album that has many twist and turns and really shows off the brilliance of the four personalities coming together and pouring all their creativity and imagination into somewhat of a dare I say it "concept album" Then you will truly enjoy this. They dial back the distortion a little bit but not the intensity and display the most intricate and detailed songs they have ever written. The reason I hesitate to compare this album to concept albums of the past is because usually I think of stuffiness and over the top grandiose from those types of records, this on the other hand has a very natural flowing feel and does not feel forced or contrived in any way. This is the type of album that at first listen you might say it's alright, but by several listens you will consider it a masterpiece. And the funny part about it is that although the songs are long, it does not feel long overall but instead seems very short. There is a definite classic rock prog feel on some parts but it never feels like you are listening to 70's bands but instead something that is very modern and present.
I was very leery of hearing that there would be keyboards, but they are done in such a way, that they totally fit the songs and are more of an accent in the background. The track "Ghost of Karelia" at some parts reminds me of a hint of something off the Voivod Nothingface album. "Divinations" is the shortest song and sounds the most like the older material but even at that they add a different feel and there is a surf guitar sounding solo that Brent Hinds rips on, but it doesn't sound like traditional surf but is mastodonized and fits the song perfectly. The CZAR and Crack the sky are Epic songs, that im not going to even get into, you will have to listen yourself to experience it.
The Deluxe edition with the DVD is the way to go and is worth the price by itself, proving to be very entertaining and inspirational.
Even though 2009 is only 4 months in I'm going to say this will probably be album of the year on many lists. A truly amazing record overall that I know I will be listening to many times and can't wait to see them Live!

PEORIA, Ill -- Officials with Canucks Sports and Entertainment are in Peoria Tuesday to discuss the future of the Rivermen Hockey team.
The American Hockey League Board of Governors approved the sale of the Peoria Rivermen to the Vancouver Canucks last Friday.
In a statement Tuesday, officials said that "no determination has been made relative to the operation of the franchise for the 2013 - 2014 season."
Civic Center Center officials and Peoria Mayor Jim Ardis met with the Canucks officials. Ardis says their visit is promising.
"You know they are very uncertain what they are going to do with the team this year," said Ardis. "They don't necessarily have a place for them to play, but they are trying to determine if it is feasible to be in Peoria next year."
Mayor Ardis says the Canucks plan to decide if and where the Rivermen will play by mid next month.

Whether one chooses a traditional screen-printing process or a modern digital printing process, custom t-shirt printing is easier than ever before. Each technique offers unique advantages, so make sure to consider all elements before choosing screen-print or digital.
Read More
All-over printing does encompass the entire surface area of a shirt, however, the are three different approaches a printer might take based on the desired print and style of art. Each approach varies in complexity and price, so please be sure to consult with a sales insider before you finalize your design.
Screen printed t-shirts are awesome. Most times they look pretty cool, but the medium isn't all encompassing. Follow this simple checklist of the 7 musts to make sure your art will print perfectly for screen print:
Direct to garment printing is great for a lot of reasons, but the big one is the fact that set up is really fast and minimal. There's no need for separations, burning screens, mixing ink or setting up a press. While it's not as simple as hitting control+P it is much closer to instant gratification.
*To the right is an example of an instance when dye migration occurred. The color of the design was white, but dye migration caused the red tint.
Aside from being wearable, one of the most common characteristics of apparel is the inside tag. So common in fact, that most people probably don't think twice about where or how that tag got there. Unlike my gut instinct may have led me to believe, tags do not grow on shirts. Nope, there is actually some labor involved and it all begins with you and/or the designer.
Embroidery is a beautiful application for embellishing a garment or adding a branding element to apparel and accessories. Vector graphics on a computer screen often do not translate well to stitches based for a number of reasons including the fabric you wish to apply the logo to. There is a simple set of guidelines to follow that will ensure your art will look as exquisite embroidered as is does in your design software.
Flipping through a pantone color book is a popular way to choose hues for print products. When both the customer and the manufacturer are looking at the same pantone color, both parties know that they're on the same page. Simply saying "light blue" isn't nearly specific enough when it comes to promotional products.
The best way to preview a new logo or design as embroidery is to see an actual sewn example. If you closely compare your sew out sample to a garment from the completed production run, it's likely you will find some variance. If the same digitized file is used for both the sew out and the production, how is this possible? An embroidery machine has a number of stations referred to as heads. The number of heads on a machine can range from 1 to twenty. An embroidery operator can sew as many garments as there are heads on the machine. In other words, if the embroidery machine has 10 heads, the operator can sew 10 caps at once. If the order is for 20 caps, the operator will hoop, load, and sew 10 caps first. After unloading the first 10 caps, the operator will hoop load and sew the remaining 10 caps. You with me so far? Let's take this scenario one step further. If the machine has 10 heads and the order is for 5 caps, 5 of the heads will not be used in the production of the order. This is where the red flag comes up.In a production environment, such as embroidery manufacturing, efficiency is key in keeping costs down for customers. It doesn't make sense to take up an entire embroidery machine to sew one sample while the additional heads on the machine are not in use. For this reason, embroidery houses designate a single head machine specifically for sewing samples. Below are pictures of a single head and multiple head embroidery machines.
Once the sew out is approved and the job is set up for production on a multiple head machine there are a number of factors that will differ inevitably. Sewing needles are changed when they dull, but level of sharpness is bound to vary from machine to machine and even from head to head. The amount of tension from the thread spool to the needle can be slightly different from the sample machine to the production machine as well as the the stress level on the bobbin spool. These slight differences will affect the way the embroidery looks, but not much.Embroidery houses typically have rolls of standard fabrics that can be used for the sew out. The operator does their best to match the color and fabric type, but it's not likely the exact fabric will be used for a sample. Different fabrics hold thread a little differently depending on the tightness of the weave and quality of the fabric thread. If you would like to see the logo or design sewn on the actual garment for your order, request a pre-production sample. You will approve a sew out first, then the actual sample will be sewn. Keep in mind, a pre-production sample will be sewn on the single head machine and not the machine that sews the full order.So with all of this variation, why approve a sew out when it does not represent the final product exactly? Because the variance is really not that great. Sew outs and embroidery are meant to be viewed at arms length. Both fabric and thread are soft, flexible materials. By nature the shape will not be tight and perfect. Imperfections detectable at arms length justifies a new sew out.
Illustrator has some nifty effect options, but you've got to be careful when using them. A good portion of these options apply raster elements to your art, negating vector's resizing abilities and requiring separations for screens. The most common are the drop shadow effects. These often look good (at first glance) and add dimension, but they complicate your file by mixing image types and severely limit the printable size of your art. If you want shadows, use gradients instead. It is more time consuming, but will be more cost effective and flexible in the end.
