I purchased this monitor for my office. I purchased 2 other 24" samsung LED monitors to put on each side of it. This was the best upgrade I have ever done! The main monitor (27" Samsung LED) is my favorite! Everything is easy to see and the quality is great! I love the tilt feature on this monitor, making it much easier on your back my positioning the main monitor down or up. There are 2 plugs that come with the 27" samsung LED monitor and one is for HD connection and the other one is for standard VGA connection. The high DEF makes a huge difference! I love this monitor and the smaller version of it (24"). they are constructed well, light weight, and have a great picture!

This Samsung monitor was easy to set up, works very well and is all I could ask for, at a very good price! It is the 3rd Samsung monitor I have bought. ONE PROBLEM, which is a problem every time I switch it on or off is the power switch. It is a push button which has to be pushed up, from under the far right corner. It takes enough upward pressure that the monitor invariably tips a little, each time I switch it on or off! This monitor gets a five star, EXCEPT for this one significant problem! My other two Samsung monitors (each 24") were each turned on or of by a light touch on the lower right corner.

Great for CAD work
Comments about Samsung 27" LED Monitor:
I've been using this monitor for a couple months mostly for CAD work. The default settings were perfect for me right out of the box. It is very bright - it has little to no glare and the contrast and color are spot on. I will say that this is a very large monitor and it may be too large for some applications. I connect this to my laptop with the same resolution but a smaller screen. When I drag a window from the laptop to the 27" LED monitor it is very different in size. I think that for a lot of people this monitor might be too big.
Bigger and Better
Comments about Samsung 27" LED Monitor:
Experiencing vision problems, I needed to go a larger monitor. I went from a 20" to this 27" and I love it. I must admit I miss the built in speakesr that were in the 20" but Russell Martin helped me solve the problem with a small speaker that clips on the monitor. The sound quality is excellent. .
Big and Beautiful
Comments about Samsung 27" LED Monitor:
BIG screen and awesome picture. So glad I picked this monitor !!

I found this monitor to be exactly what I needed to complete and facilitate the need of being able to comfortably be able to view my laptop...Hooking up the screen wasn't as difficult to attach as I thought it may be...The service representative at the Wilson NC store was extremely helpful as I was looking for the screen of my choice.

From the story -
1. "Four commissioners -- John Kadvany, Ben Eiref, Katie Ferrick and Vince Bressler -- thought more control beyond architectural review may be needed."
2. "The commission unanimously agreed to consider whether the city needed more ways to guide the selection of uses proposed for a site."
3. "The Planning Commission will take up the specific plan review again during its Sept. 23 meeting."

ponder looks good, minnesota is laughing all the way they didnt enter the matt flynn sweepstakes and just stick to the kid
If you don't put the bar high you are not gonna get somewhere. It's a goal and thats good. Just like AP's goal was to start Week 1 and we all know how many critics told him it couldn't be done. He has potential in him.
I don't think come the regular season we are going to see 33% of our short dumps on 1st & 2nd downs going for 19 yards+ like we did in this game, especially when Adrian Peterson is in there.
When Ponder did pass on 3rd down, we only converted once & averaged 2.7 yards per attempt.
Again, it was only a pre-season game & only a little over 1 quarter of play we're talking about.
Are small sample sizes relevant again & are pre-season games meaningful again? That seems to constantly change depending on what QB or player we are talking about.
It shows a little more promise, which is more than we had last year.
It's only pre season so you have to take things with a grain of salt but the thing that did stand out to me is that they were getting YAC and in this WCO that is a key thing. The way you get YAC in the WCO is to deliver the ball on time and hit the WR in stride without having to stop, reach or change his direction to catch it.
While I am not convinced this is a sure fire thing with Ponder, or even that it is happening to a large degree right now, one thing we should agree with is that is how it is supposed to look and if we are finally getting a QB other than Farve that can do it we are on the right track. We have been missing that for many years now.
Part of it is in play calling & I've always wanted to see more of it. Too often in the past we sent receivers out, had them stop short of the 1st down, turn wait for the ball, catch it & then turn & try to get a 1st down, only to be tackled by the defender at the point of the catch, short of the first down.
Ponder In Command On 1st And 2nd Down
Ponder put the theory to practice on Friday night against the Buffalo Bills. He was 8 of 10 for 128 yards with 1 TD on 1st and 2nd downs, an impressive display of passing that left the team and its fans optimistic about Ponders continued develop and the progression of the offense. Furthermore, Ponder connected with 7 different receivers on those 8 completions, and 5 of the 8 completions resulted in a 1st down or touchdown.
In context, it is a reasonable goal. Ponder simply stated that, in the Vikings ball control offense, they will need to have a 75% completion ratio on 1st and 2nd down to allow the offense flexibility on 3rd down.
That's the goal. Ponder and the coaches know it will not always work out that way. They are just looking for goals that will allow the team to evaluate their own performances. I do not believe Ponder or the coaches expect a 75% completion ratio overall for season stats. They do expect that they will not reach the goal at times and will likely lose some games because of it.
Watching preseason games, the Vikings offense may have trouble with this, as receivers have dropped many catchable balls from Ponder.
The good - this is a west coast aka Vikings of the 70s w Foreman offense which relies on a heavy dose of short and intermediate passes. Harvin, Carlson, Rudolph and AP r terrific targets in that scheme.
The bad - minniman u r correct. Too many drops by WRs in preseason makes me wonder even if Ponder puts the ball where Brees Rodgers and Brady do which often requires athletic adjustments, completion pct is likely to b less than Ponder's goal
The ugly - too many injuries and Simpson's suspension create real doubts if the timing and chemistry r strong enough to have an efficient passing game early

FRANKFORD, W. Va (WVVA)-- A young man was driving a Dodge Dakota pickup down Route 219 when it
caught fire.
Emergency responders said the call came in at 7:39 PM.
The Frankford Fire Department and West Virginia State Police responded, and the Renick Fire Department was on standby.
The driver told responders he heard a noise coming from the vehicle, and then it caught fire near the engine.
He was able to pull over and get out while crews responded.
Flames were coming out of the cab and the truck was fully engulfed in fire when they arrived. They hosed around 250 gallons of water on the fire and were able to safely put it out.
Firefighters say no one was injured.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

CNHI News Service
More retailers are looking to add additional staff this holiday season, according to a recent survey by CareerBuilder.
"Thirty-nine percent of retail hiring managers reported that they plan to hire seasonal workers this year, up from 36 percent last year and 29 percent in 2011," CareerBuilder reported Wednesday.
Not all seasonal jobs are temporary, however, as some employers plan to transition holiday staff to permanent roles.
"Nearly half (49 percent) of U.S. employers who are hiring seasonal workers plan to transition some into full-time, permanent staff," said Brent Rasmussen, president of CareerBuilder North America. "This is up 10 percentage points over last year and indicative of a growing trend where employers are test-driving candidates before committing to a long-term hire. Seasonal work is a good way for job seekers to network, showcase their abilities and secure a permanent position in a variety of industries."
CareerBuilder provided this list of dos and don'ts for securing a holiday job and turning it into a permanent position.
DO provide good customer service. Fifty-nine percent of employers said proactively offering help instead of waiting to be asked for it is a great way to differentiate yourself.
DO go above and beyond. If you want the employer to consider you for a permanent job, two in five hiring managers recommended asking for more projects (46 percent) and offering up ideas (44 percent).
DO let the employer know your intentions. More than half (53 percent) of employers said that you should let the hiring manager know up front that you are interested in a permanent role with the company. It will set you apart from other candidates.
DON'T come in unprepared. One-third (33 percent) of employers tend to dismiss candidates who know nothing about their company or products. Make sure to check out the company's website and recent news announcements.
DON'T focus on the discount. Thirty-nine percent of employers are turned off by candidates who seem more interested in the discount than the job opportunity. Wait for the employer to bring up the discount if one is available.
DON'T show up in a competing brand. One of the biggest pet peeves for 18 percent of hiring managers is a candidate who comes to the interview wearing clothes or other merchandise from a competitor's store.
It's also important to remember that retail stores aren't the only employers of seasonal help. Other industries include customer service, shipping/delivery, inventory management, administrative/clerical, non-retail sales, marketing and accounting/finance.

Finding the perfect purse is no easy task.
It's a project the faint of heart should avoid at all costs because the quest is fraught with frustration and aggravation.
Whenever I find one I really like, it's a foregone conclusion it will wear out almost by the time I get all my stuff inside.
If it's really tacky, it will last till the proverbial cows come home.
I've found that most purses are either too big, too little, too plain, too fancy, too something.
The world is full of cliches that neatly sum up a solution or explanation for nearly every situation. "Easy come, easy go" and "No good deed goes unpunished" are among some of the more widely known.
Another is "The only constant is change." This jewel is attributed to Heraclitus, a greek philosopher who died in 475 BC. Actually, his original statement was "Nothing endures but change." A comparison of the two statements proves his point.
The problem is that neither life nor anything else is not as simple as a few words strung together.
There are all sorts of quizzes going around that start out "you know you're getting older if ... "
A laundry list of "old stuff" follows.
A few years back, I came up with another one, all on my own, and I think it bears noting again.
Here it is: You know you're getting older if you don't use the whole keyboard on your computer.
Long ago it was established that I can't draw.
This has been officially noted at the high school, college and later-in-life levels.
Even before reaching these plateaus, I essentially failed cut-paste-and-color at the elementary level, but it was a kinder, gentler school system then and no one went on record with the crushing evaluation.
Years later I thought of this as I watched Gayla McCoy doodling in a meeting and was nothing short of amazed. She was drawing a pair of fish that could have been straight out of a Disney film strip. They actually looked like talking fish.
The Bauxite Museum is a delightful place to visit.
Anyone who hasn't take the time to do so is engaging in self-deprivation. The exhibits — and there are many — tell stories that evoke memories of another time that many of us remember fondly.
On one of my visits there several years ago, I heard the story about "Bottle" Wilmoth's famous bowl he took for a Mulligan stew that was to be served to workers at Reynolds mining operations.
According to Melba Shepard's account, each employee was informed he could have one bowl only of the stew. That was enough to inspire Mr. Wilmoth's humor.
"There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. These are things we don't know we don't know." — Donald Rumsfeld
All three of the scenarios so confusingly described by former Secretary of State Rumsfeld were in play before my eyes July 12.
The place — the court of Judge Gary Arnold.
The reason — a motion to quash, or set aside, a requirement to provide information regarding anonymous bloggers.
The passing of American icon Andy Griffith has caused a major shift in attention to Mayberry, the mythical town where Sheriff Andy Taylor rarely had to do any sheriffing, but dispensed lots of homespun wisdom that served a higher calling.
Everybody would have liked to live in Mayberry.
That's not surprising because it was a place where although everybody knew everybody else's business — not always desirable — more importantly, it was a place where people took care of each other. And love was the common denominator that held them together.
If there's anything I hate to spend money on, it's an appliance.
Just think about it. This is not an unreasonable position to take.
Once an appliance gets to your house, no one but family members and pets will ever see it again, save for an occasional perusal from a repairman in the event of a malfunction.
I mean, it's not like you might have company for dinner and you would take time to fancy up the washing machine in case the guests should peek into the utility room.
An appliance is just there.
You can't drive it.
You can't wear it.
You can't eat it.
You can't drink it.
Subtlety is an art form that, when placed in the hands of the skilled, can deliver a message so seemingly insignificant that it is absorbed without conscious resistance. A well-worded sermon plants a seed that provides strength for the future when comfort is needed. A word of praise from a teacher will silently build confidence for that moment when everything may change for the student.
I've never been to a live wrestling match, but I have seen the sport demonstrated on TV.
Pardon me. I'm told by male members of the Courier staff that I mispronounced/misspelled the event. Real fans, they tell me, call the sport "wrassling."
A thousand pardons.
The attention to wrestling/wrassling came into newsroom discussion because of a planned event next week in Benton. A number of wrestling/wrassling stars will be performing here in conjunction with Benton's first Freedom Fest.

(WMC-TV) - A 1-year-old boy is alive thanks to the quick thinking of a 911 dispatcher who helped his mother save his life. That dispatcher was honored for her life-saving efforts Monday.
On August 30, 2013, Carrissa Sanford called 911 to report that her 1-year-old son, Bentlee, was choking and had stopped breathing. For Sanford, it was a call that changed her life.
Dispatcher Gloria Spence provided emergency medical instructions to Sanford.
"I want you to strike the baby's back five times right between his shoulder blades," said the dispatcher on the other end of the line.
Although a traumatic and stressful event, the dispatcher was able to keep Sanford calm and help her to follow the all of important life-saving instructions.
"I panicked," Sanford recalled. "I tried to do the Heimlich like you would on a grown person and it wasn't working."
She continued, "The moment I saw him turn blue is when I got really scared and he started bleeding from his mouth."
After calling 911 and listening to Spence's instructions, Sanford was able to get Bentlee breathing again.
"When it became dislodged, or he swallowed it or whatever, you could hear his loud crying," said Spence. "That was a great sense of relief."
Bentlee just celebrated his first birthday on September 18.
Now, the woman who saved him is being called a hero for her calm spirit and invaluable advice.
"I'm really thankful to have him still with me," said Sanford.
Dispatcher Gloria Spence was awarded the Medal of Honor Monday in Dyersburg for her life-saving feat. She was very modest about what she did, crediting all of the wonderful training the City of Dyersburg has given to her to do her job well.

The Ava Gardner Museum and the Johnston County Genealogical and Historical Society will hold a genealogy seminar, "Ava Gardner's Kissing Kin," April 12 in downtown Smithfield.
"This event is for those who claim kin with our hometown Hollywood star and also for anyone who wants to learn more about the revolutionary use of DNA in genealogical research," said Todd Johnson, director of the Ava Gardner Museum.
The seminar, taking place from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., will begin with registration and a tour of the Ava Gardner Museum and will continue at the Public Library of Johnston County and Smithfield.
Cynthia Wells of Cabarrus County will present "Exploring the Mysteries, Exploding the Myths: Expanding Your Family History Using DNA," a lecture she delivered during the 2013 annual meeting of the International Society of Genetic Genealogists in Dublin, Ireland. Information about DNA projects involving the Gardner and related families will be included.
Presentations on Ava Gardner's ancestry will follow, including a show-and-tell segment. "We suspect many of Ava's relatives across Eastern North Carolina have lots of information, family stories, heirlooms, and photographs, and we would love to have some of them share with our audience," Johnson said.
Research to date indicates Gardner's ancestors carried the following surnames: Baker, Barnes, Batts, Cherry, Cobb, Dilday, Duke, Ellis, Forbes, Gardner, Gray, Harrell, Jordan, Vickers and Webb. Most of her family lines can be traced to pioneer settlers of the Virginia and Carolina Tidewater region in the 17th and 18th centuries.
The cost for the event is $10 per person, and advance registration is recommended. For more information visit the museum website, avagardner.org.

The second option is to continue up the crack 8' to a flake. Move up to a hand crack. Both options are about 5.9. It's also possible to skip this pitch by scrambling further up the gully and then traversing back left.
Begin in the gully, near the start of Tingey's Terror. This climb ascends the right facing corner just before the approach makes the exposed traverse out to the left.

Theres been a somber mood at Hilmar High this week after senior Joseph Bello was seriously injured in a all-terrain vehicle accident on Saturday afternoon.
Bello, 17, was with his family, taking advantage of a four-day weekend at Pismo Beach. He was riding his quad bike at the Oceano Dunes when he was flipped off the bike coming down a hill. The vehicle landed on top of Bello, fracturing two vertebrae and leaving him without feeling or movement from his chest down.
He was going down a drop he wasnt aware of, said Hilmar football coach Frank Marques, who visited Bello and his family after the accident on Saturday. The bike dumped him over the handle bars and then the bike landed on top of him. He stayed conscious the whole time, but the bike landing on his back caused the damage.
Bello was flown to Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center in San Luis Obispo. He underwent surgery on Tuesday to fuse the two fractured vertebrae.
The doctors dont have answers for the family yet, Marques said. Theyre being very guarded in what they say. At this point, they just dont know if hell get back to 100 percent. Either way, its going to be a long rehab for him. Its not going to be something where he just wakes up and hell be walking again.
The news hit hard at the high school, where Bello is a popular student. He played football, basketball and was involved in leadership on campus. Bello was named the Trans-Valley League Defensive Player of the Year after leading the Yellowjackets with 138 tackles. Bello helped lead Hilmar to a TVL title and the Sac-Joaquin Section Division 4 championship game against Central Catholic.
The real tough part is the type of kid he is, Marques said. Nobody deserves for this to happen, but he (is) the type of kid who was the light of the campus. He was selected to play in the Lions All-Star football game and the Rotary All-Star game. He was looking forward to playing in those games and playing football next year. Now were worried about him walking again.
The Fellowship of Christian Athletes group organized a prayer vigil for Bello at the high school on Sunday night and over 200 students showed up.
On Tuesday, Hilmar students made a giant banner that many of the kids signed for Bello.
Hes a big part of our school, said football teammate David Bisby. Hes involved with a lot. Me and him were the strongest guys on the team. I always want to be the strongest one and he was the one in there pushing me to keep working. I didnt want to ball behind. I was really shocked and in disbelief when I heard. It didnt really hit me right away.
Its definitely been saddening, said Hilmar quarterback Jonathan OBrien said. Especially with a team like ours, where there was a lot of camaraderie. For a guy like him to get hurt and the seriousness of it. Its not just a broken leg, this is something that could affect him the rest of his life. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.
Students have also taken to social media to send positive thoughts Bellos way on Twitter and Facebook. There were 125 messages and 738 likes on a message about Bello on Hilmar Yellowjacket Footballs Facebook page as people shared their good thoughts with the family.
Its been very somber (Tuesday and Wednesday), Marques said. Theres no details to tell the kids. With a broken arm you can say in six weeks hell be fine. With something like this you cant give any answers. Thats probably the hardest part. Theres no predictability.
Marques did say the plan is for Bello to transfer to Santa Claras Valley Medical Center once hes stable.
If Im betting on a kid to beat this, my money is on Joe, Marques said. Hes got the right kind of outlook. Hes a hard-working kid. If anybody is going to beat something like this, its going to be him.

Halloween may be scary, but it doesn't have to be dangerous. Did you know that children are more than twice as likely to be hit by a car on Halloween than on any other night of the year? And that falls and burns are also a common cause of injuries among children?
It is important that parents become educated about the potential dangers surrounding the celebration, and take the necessary precautions to keep children safe. Here are some ways to help you avoid any accidents - while still having a fun and memorable night with your kids.
Five Items Every Mother Should Bring Along on Halloween Night
1. A fully charged cell phone pre-programmed with numbers for doctors, family members, and other emergency contacts.
2. Reflective tape to decorate costumes and sacks to increase children's visibility to drivers. Reflective tape may be purchased at hardware, bicycle, or sporting goods stores.
3. Flashlights and/or glow sticks to help children and parents easily see and be seen. Remember, do not let children under age 12 go trick-or-treating or cross the street without the supervision of an adult. Accompany younger children to the door of every home they visit.
4. Bandages and antiseptic wipes, something a prepared mom always needs even beyond Halloween, to take care of cuts and bruises if a child falls. Make sure to cover wounds to prevent contact with germs and possible infection.
5. Bottled water and healthy snacks, like raisins or Cheerios, so kids don't get hungry. You don't want children munching on Halloween candy before there is a chance for you to inspect the wrappers.
Six Tips to Avoid the Hidden Dangers of Your Child's Costume
1. Consider makeup (but make sure it's nontoxic) instead of a mask, which can obstruct children's vision or restrict breathing. If they do wear a mask, make sure they can see and breathe easily.
2. Make sure your child's entire costume (including beards, masks, and wigs) is clearly marked as flame resistant, or look for flame resistant fabrics such as nylon or polyester. Avoid costumes made of flimsy materials and outfits with big, baggy sleeves or billowing or long, trailing features to minimize the risk of contact with candles or other sources of ignition.
3. Choose costumes that are light-colored and more visible to motorists. Remember to use reflective tape on costumes and sacks so children will be clearly seen. Also equip each child with a flashlight or glow stick.
4. If your child's costume has accessories, make sure they are soft and flexible to avoid possible injury.
5. Hem the bottom of your child's costume to make sure it is not dragging on the ground. Children should wear well-fitting, sturdy shoes, too. This will help prevent trips and falls.
6. Illuminate jack-o-lanterns with flashlights or glow sticks. Avoid candles as they can pose a danger for trick-or-treaters who may come in contact with the open flames and ignite their costumes.

In a game that featured 11 ties and 10 lead changes, it was no surprise that the outcome came down to the final shot in Wednesday's game between Illinois State and Indiana State. The Sycamores (12-7, 5-3 MVC) had a chance to win the game on a last-second three-pointer, but the attempt rimmed out as the Redbirds (11-9, 2-6 MVC) held on for the 60-58 victory on Doug Collins Court at Redbird Arena.
Johnny Hill led the way for the Redbirds with 18 points and Jackie Carmichael just missed out on his 10th double-double of the season with 16 points and nine rebounds. John Wilkins and Tyler Brown rounded out the balanced effort, as each scored nine points and grabbed six rebounds.
The two teams traded baskets for the first seven minutes of the game to a 10-10 tie, before a layup by put the Redbirds up by a basket at 12-10. Just 30 seconds later, the Sycamores took their first lead of the game, when Lucas Eitel hit a three-pointer from the top of the key to make the score 13-12. The Indiana State lead was short-lived, as Hill made a pair of free throws and nailed a floater in the lane to widen the Redbird lead to three at 16-13.
Illinois State extended that quick run out to 8-0 after a jumper by Bryant Allen and a fast break dunk by Brown, which he started with a steal on the defensive end. That forced Indiana State head coach Greg Lansing to call a timeout, as the Redbirds took a 20-13 lead with 9:29 left on the clock.
The Redbirds held a single-digit advantage for the next nine minutes, but the Sycamores used an 11-5 run to chip away at the lead. Khristian Smith had a chance to give the Sycamores the lead with 30 seconds left in the half, but missed a pair of free throws to give Illinois State the final shots of the half. Carmichael missed an attempt with five seconds left, but Anthony Cousin corralled the loose ball and hit a jumper as time expired to give the Redbirds a 29-26 lead at the break.
Indiana State erased the three-point deficit and tied the game at 33-33 at the 15:17 mark, when Dawon Cummings hit a three-pointer from the top of the key. Less than a minute later, Carmichael threw down a dunk on an assist from Kaza Keane to give the Redbirds the lead back and he added a free throw to widen the lead back to three points at 36-33.
The Sycamores fought back with a 6-0 run and took their first lead of the second half at 41-40 on a Manny Arop jumper at the 10:29 mark. The lead would last just over 30 seconds again, as Hill converted on a three-point play to put the Redbirds back up 43-41 with under 10 minutes left in the game.
Devonte Brown gave the Sycamores the lead back at 45-44 with a pair of free throws at the 7:32 mark. Tyler Brown was then fouled outside the arch and he nailed all three free throws to give the Redbirds the lead back at 47-45 soon after. Over the next five minutes, the lead changed five times and the score was tied twice, before the Redbirds extended their lead out to four points a 57-53 with 1:35 left in the game after Hill hit a pair of free throws.
A free throw from John Wilkins extended the ISU run to 7-0 and gave the Redbirds a 58-53 lead with 30 seconds left in the game. The Sycamores got a free throw from RJ Mahurin and a fast break layup from Jake Odum cut the lead to 58-56 with 11 seconds left, forcing the Redbirds to call a timeout.
Hill was fouled on the inbounds play and made the second of two free throws to make the score 59-56. Odum then took the ball and was fouled on the ensuing Indiana State possession. He proceeded to make both free throws to cut the lead 59-58, before Carmichael was fouled on the next Redbird possession to send him to the line. Carmichael hit the first of two free throws to make the score 60-58 and a last-second three-pointer by Odum rimmed out to give the Redbirds the victory.
The Redbirds return to action Saturday night, when they host Evansville at 7 p.m. at Redbird Arena. The game will be broadcast live on Valley TV.

The quest begins for JU Softball
Feb. 1, 2008
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -
Feb. 1, 2008
The 2008 edition of the JU softball media guide is now available online. Get ready for the upcoming season with all the stats, facts and figures on the team.
2008 Outlook
In just her first season as head coach, head coach Amanda Lehotak endured one of the toughest schedules in program history with a young squad. Despite the odds and the obvious learning curve, the Dolphins were within reach of the postseason. For the second season in a row, the Dolphins boast one of the youngest squads in the Atlantic Sun Conference, with 14 of their 19 players being underclassmen. Even though the squad is young, JU returns many key members who will look to build upon what they learned last season and propel the Dolphins into the conference tournament.
"The goal this year is to make the Atlantic Sun tournament," said Lehotak. "We have a bad taste in our mouth left over from last year because we had control of our own destiny and we let it slip away. Even though our squad consists of many freshmen and sophomores, I expect the chip on our shoulder to make us more mentally tough this season."
At the plate, the Dolphins will look to continue the trend that saw them improve on their 2006 totals in batting average, runs scored, on-base percentage and stolen bases. The upswing of offensive firepower has enabled the Dolphins to be potent from any part of their lineup.
"Offensively I expect us to be more consistent throughout the lineup," Lehotak said. "We have a better balance of speed and power. This group of hitters just has a knack for getting on base."
The Dolphins employed a lot of youngsters around the horn in 2007 and the experience gained will be vital to their push for a spot in this year's A-Sun Tournament. The competition for playing time is fierce, with the Dolphins possessing solid depth at every position.
Three players will be fighting for time behind the plate. Sophomore catcher Ashley Mora started all 58 games last season and led the team with 10 doubles and 28 runs batted in. Sophomore Simone Bruemmer made 30 starts last year and freshman Jessica Abraham looks to be an impact player after signing from American Senior High School in Miami, Fla.
"Behind the plate is another area where we have gained depth," said Lehotak. "Ashley and Simone split equal time last year. With their year of experience and with the addition of Jessica, this will definitely be a fierce competition in completing the battery."
The starters at the corner infield spots will come between four players: Senior Sara Gordon, sophomores Beth Glasscock and Amber Moseley along with freshman Brie Carmack.
Returning from injury last season, Glasscock will look to get back on pace after earning all-freshman team honors in 2006.
Gordon, a transfer from Daytona Beach Community College, racked up 43 hits in her 55 starts last season between third base and the outfield.
Joining them will be Moseley, who possesses a stellar glove and was used primarily as a defensive replacement last season at first base and Carmack, who has the versatility to line up anywhere in the infield after signing from Florence Christian High School in Florence, S.C.
With the graduation of shortstop Renee LaCroix coupled with senior Patricia Melo, being used primarily as a batter this season, the door is open for a quartet of underclassmen to claim the starting middle infield positions.
Melo, a transfer from Florida Community College of Jacksonville, tied for the team lead with two home runs, led the Dolphins with a .400 on base percentage last season and placed second on the team with a .295 batting average while playing second base.
Sophomore Kelly McKeon started 46 games last season between the infield and outfield and her versatility will be a key asset for the Dolphins this season.
Sophomore transfer Shannon Monahan, a transfer from Sante Fe Community College, earned All-America honors by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association and was named Mid-Florida Conference "Player of the Year".
Freshmen Katie Kelly and Carmack will also be in the mix.
"This is the most athletic infield I have ever coached," Lehotak said. "We have depth at every position."
The outfield is one of the most experienced units on the team, possessing four returners including three upperclassmen.
Senior outfielder Jillian Mirante, a first team all-conference selection last season, leads the way at the plate for the Dolphins. The career steal leader at JU with 27 swipes, Mirante possesses game changing speed, as she demonstrated when she hit an inside the park home run in back-to-back games against Lipscomb (3/31) and Belmont (4/1).
"She is the ultimate team leader," said Lehotak. "She leads by example, performance and attitude."
She will be joined by returners Gordon, junior Alexis Novak, McKeon and freshmen Katarina Engler and Kayla Ouellet
"I believe we have put together one of the fastest outfields in the country," Lehotak said. "Along with Jillian, the additions of Engler and Ouellet will add blazing speed to the line-up. The consistent play of McKeon, Gordon and Novak means the starting line-up for the outfield is anyone's guess. This is the most competition we have had for three spots since I have been here."
 Pitching
The Dolphins will feature plenty of experience in the circle as the pitching staff returns three of its four starters from last season. With a top-flight freshman added to the mix, the Dolphins possess a rotation that will enable them to compete with any team in the country.
Senior Shannon Jensen leads the way and will look to leave her mark in Dolphins' lore. The 2005 A-Sun "Freshman of the Year" currently sits second in most pitching categories in program history.
"Shannon brings a relentless and competitive nature to our staff," said assistant coach Ali Higgs. "We will be looking to her senior leadership and experience in the circle to put us in a position to win."
The Dolphins will be expecting big things from sophomore Ashley Iveson, who recorded a shutout victory over UNC-Greensboro, a win over South Florida and held North Carolina to one hit over 7.2 innings.
"With her freshman year under her belt, Ashley knows what to expect in our conference," Higgs said. "She has made huge strides in refining her arsenal in preparation for this upcoming season."
Battling through injuries most of the season, sophomore Brittany Abbott gained vital experience in 2007, making nine appearances in the circle for the Dolphins.
"Just coming back from injury, we expect Brittany to refine her pitches and build back her endurance to be able to throw seven innings," said Higgs. "With her work ethic and determination, we look forward to having her back in the rotation."
Rounding out the staff is freshman Jackie Samuels, who joins the squad from Peachtree Ridge High School in Suwanee, Ga.
"Jackie will add depth and deception to our pitching staff this year," Higgs said. "As a freshman, with her new look and mound presence, we expect some big games out of her this year."

Create Your Own 529 Plan
Saving for College
Create Your Own 529 Plan
529 College Savings Plans allow you to fund an account that will pay college tuition at state schools; you pay a fixed amount and the Plan will pay qualified expenses even if costs go up by the time your child enrolls in school. If you know you'll need a specific sum to pay for college costs, one way is to buy zero coupon bonds. A zero coupon bond is similar to a savings bond; you pay a fixed price today and at a future date the bond is worth a set amount. For example, you may pay $5,500 for a zero coupon bond that will be worth $10,000 in twelve years. In effect you earn interest on your initial payment, but that interest is not payable until the end of the coupon term.
Zero coupon bonds are a way to invest a considerable sum and receive a set rate of return. They work a lot like Certificates of Deposit, but tend to generate a higher rate of return. So if you know how much you'll need tomorrow, it could make sense to purchase the right zero coupons today.

Monster, Red Bull and other so-called energy drink companies claim they don't market their products to young adolescents, but Senator Dick Durbin and several Chicago physicians accused the makers of doing exactly that. Now, they're pushing for new federal rules and restrictions.
Emergency room doctors and pediatricians from Northwestern and the University of Chicago say energy drinks are causing health problems for a growing number of youngsters.
"We typically see young people in the Emergency Department who think they're about to die. They believe they are about to die, because of what they're feeling," says Dr. David Zich of Northwestern Memorial Hospital. "And when I find out that they've drunk three Red Bulls, sometimes I think, "Are you surprised?" But they are, because they have no idea."
Like Dr. Zich, University of Chicago pediatrician Dr. Holly Benjamin said she's seen enough energy-drink-related horror stories. She wants strict new federal rules banning manufacturers from marketing super-saturated drinks with caffeine and other stimulants, including guarana, taurine and ephedra to those under age 18.
"The science is clear," says Dr. Benjamin. "Energy drinks have no place in the diet of children or adolescents."
In a brief response, a lawyer for Monster energy drink said: "Monster stands by its position that we do not market to children."
Critics complain in particular about Monster's Athlete of the Week award, in this case given to a boy who's identified as being 14-years old.
One video online shows what appears to be a pre-teen displaying prowess on a skateboard.
"You can even go to their website and see that energy drink makers sponsor events clearly for children, like the Red Bull High School Tournament, local skateboarding tours, high school surfing competitions," Durbin says.
At Senator Durbin's request, the US Food and Drug Administration is studying the health impact of energy drinks. Some doctors want special attention paid to the impact on youngsters already taking medication, who sometimes exhibit the worst symptoms.
Dr. Zich says that "palpitations, chest pains, shortness of breath, anxiety, tremors, even seizures are commonplace."
Durbin and a senate colleague sent letters to all the leading energy drink makers. They pointed out specific examples of marketing to kids as young as 13 and demanded a written response with steps the companies will take to prevent such marketing in the future.

Welcome to my "Miniscapes" book featuring honey jar labels and holiday cards created over a span of 15 years. Conceived as a one-time project. in 1993, I created an original piece of artwork for the front of a honey jar to celebrate the Jewish New Year. I had no idea that I was starting a mini tradition of sorts.
Honey is given as a gift on this holiday to symbolize a sweet New Year. I thought this would be a clever way to make my New Year's gifts personal. In most cases the images portray my daughter, myself and originally our cat Ming and subsequently our new addition of Calvin and then Rosy.
The original illustrations are about 10" x 14". They are essentially mixed media: markers, oil pastel and pencils and in two cases the addition of digital imagery - always in different combinations. Each "Miniscape" is a reduced original digital copy individually hand-painted with gold and silver pens. They are all unique. The sheet is then cut with shearing scissors to give the edges a zig-zag finish. After, the mini art is glued onto Strathmore paper with a coloured decal edge. Each artwork is autobiographical and includes glimpses of my personal alphabet and symbolic imagery.
I now offer this service to clients and create personal cards for a fee.

News Release
Protected birds benefit from collaboration07 May 2012
MONCTON (GNB) – An endangered bird species is using a new nest box in Moncton as a result of collaboration involving the provincial government, Assumption Life and local naturalists.
Two adult peregrine falcons are nesting and have four eggs in the nest box, which a local naturalist provided to the Department of Natural Resources and Assumption Life for installation atop the company's office building in downtown Moncton. The birds, listed as a species at risk in Canada, are protected by the Species at Risk Act.
"I commend and thank Assumption Life for its role in helping to foster the propagation of the peregrine falcon in New Brunswick," said Natural Resources Minister Bruce Northrup.
Pascal Giasson, the department's manager of species at risk, urged the public to be mindful of the importance of not disturbing the nesting birds. Disturbances during the nesting season can result in the adult birds crushing their eggs or abandoning the nest.
For this reason, the department has advised that a request to install a camera near the nest be done between Sept. 1 and April 1, during which time the birds will be away from the nest. The camera can then be used for future breeding seasons.
Mark Nash, president of the Canadian Peregrine Foundation, concurred this is a critical time for the peregrine falcons' success.
"The Canadian Peregrine Foundation never risks installing cameras during the nesting activities,'' he said.

With the snow coming down and the rain recently you may not be thinking about drought, but the City of Cedar Rapids is.
Tuesday the city held a meeting for residents to comment on a proposed drought plan. The plan has different stages. During lower levels of droughts, all residents and businesses would be asked to voluntarily reduce water usage. As the drought worsens, reduction becomes mandatory.
Small business owners fear that the city's plan will hurt their operations since all water users will be asked to reduce use if the drought continues.
"I use about 20-25 gallons to wash a straight truck or a semi truck," said Randy Lucore, or Cedar Rapids. "We can do measures to limit the amount of water we're using by not cleaning them as well."
There will be another public input meeting Thursday, February 7.
Officials hope to have a drought plan approved by the city council by the end of February.

Q. Friends have called in a panic about treating lice. Their six-year-old daughter brought them home from school.
When I was a girl my parents used kerosene, but I hated it. These folks are reluctant to use insecticide on their little girl, so I hope you can tell us some natural ways to get rid of lice.
A. Kerosene is an old-fashioned home remedy that is far too risky. Don't use it!
A lice expert confided to us that alcohol is effective for overcoming lice. It is found in HairClean 1-2-3, along with coconut oil, anise oil and ylang ylang oil. Clinical tests have found this product effective even against lice that have developed resistance to standard treatments.
Listerine mouthwash, which also contains alcohol, has been recommended by readers. It can be massaged into the scalp, left on for 15 minutes and then washed out. Listerine also contains essential oils from herbs including eucalyptol, thymol, methyl salicylate and menthol. There are no scientific studies testing Listerine against lice, however.
No matter which lice product your friends use, they will get better results if they remove the nits with a fine tooth comb. Such nit combs range from a few dollars up to vibrating electronic versions for around $50.
Here are some links to ways visitors to this website have dealt with lice without resorting to something as dangerous as kerosene.

---- — DALEVILLE — Daniel Hanson already has proven he can win at Daleville.
He's racked up 31 victories and a sectional championship over the past two years in charge of the Broncos' baseball team. And he's no stranger to the area.
Hanson's head coaching career began five years ago with the baseball program at Liberty Christian, and he's been at Daleville for the past four seasons. He's also spent time on the football and basketball staffs at Shenandoah.
The key to his heart always has been on the hardwood, however, and he jumped at the chance to lead the Broncos' boys basketball team this winter.
"I think it's very exciting for me personally and also for our kids," Hanson said. "It's a great opportunity. Any time you can coach high school basketball in the state of Indiana, it's a wonderful opportunity."
Daleville's had a rough run of things recently, winning just five combined games in the past three seasons. But the Broncos claimed back-to-back sectional championships in 2008 and '09, and they have eight seniors — including Josh Irelan, Garrett Craig and Levi Floyd — as a foundation upon which to build.
"Our leadership has been wonderful," Hanson said. "We're trying to get better every day we come to gym."
The regular season opens Nov. 27 against Shenandoah in traditional fashion. The Broncos broke a 27-game losing streak with a 52-43 road victory against the Raiders to start last season, but they averaged just 45.2 points per game during a year that ended with a 3-18 record.
The sectional field does Daleville few favors with the inclusion of rising power Liberty Christian. The Lions have won 33 games in the past two years and advanced to the regional championship game at the end of each season.
The Broncos host Liberty Christian near the end of the regular season on Feb. 22 and will be able to gauge how far they've come and how far they still have left to go. The Lions won last year's meeting 88-30 and followed with an 81-44 decision in the first round of sectional play.
But Daleville's current goals are more immediate.
As Hanson said, the Broncos are working on improvement each day. That likely will carry over into the start of the regular season.
Hanson understands there's bound to be bumps in the road. But he could scarcely have asked for a smoother start.
"I think it's an easier transition because I've coached some of the guys and I know the community and I know the parents," he said. "That took away some of the awkward moments."

Last one to suffer through from the Minhas tour variety pack...one of their contract brews.
Poured into shaker pint; light orange gold color, clear, tiny carbonation feeding a single finger head that fades slowly leaving slimy lacing.
Smells of grainy, metallic malt, and corn.
Taste is sweet sugary corn water, but there's a surprise at the end. The sweetness curls up and dies on the back of your tongue, leaving you with a mealy sickly sweet aftertaste that literally made me gag and spit into the sink.
Mouthfeel is thin and watery, relatively fluffy with carbonation.
Overall, awful stuff. Drinkable I suppose if you want a cheap buzz, but if I was looking for that I'd much rather drink cheap crappy whisky than cheap crappy malt liquor/beer like these abominations from Minhas.
Minhas "craft" Brewery variety pack: 5 brews, 5 drain pours. The best thing I had from them was their utterly hop-less "IPA" at the brewery, where they also somehow managed to make an "all malt" pilsener taste like bud lite.

13 243 11 printed on the bottom of the can, maybe August 2013?
Did you hear about that marketing group that wants to promote Wisconsin breweries as "the Napa valley of beer"? They're gonna have to pay City/Melanie to pretend they don't exist.
Novelty buy for shits and giggles. $2.49/4-pk. just might be the cheapest 64 oz of beer on the market. The can graphics are pretty great if you're into black light posters and stuff. Somehow I doubt the "Jag Ice" name printed on the can will catch on, lol.
Hazy orange with murky suspended particles and rapidly rising carbonation. Lots of foam, sticky lace even, and a persistent skim across the top that doesn't break apart.
Smells really hollow, nothing of substance. Library books?
Taste is weird, really sweet like they just dumped in sugar. Corn and metallic notes. Slick and nasty aftertaste that lingers unfortunately. Watery and insipid, gross. This shit is utterly terrible.

Appearance - Light clear gold. Fizzy white head, that surprising doesn't immediately wither. Average.
Smell - Sickly sweet. Similar to most in style, but definitely not good.
Taste - Tastes like it smells. Candy sweet macro-lager flavor. No hoppiness to speak of. Also similar to many malt liquors, but definitely not good.
Mouthfeel - Seems a little flat. Dry.
Drinkability - Ugh. But cheap.

After hundreds of requests from all corners of the country (okay, so I made that part up), I've decided to go ahead with Malt Likkapalooza XII. The real reason this bout is being held today is that I finally have two malt liquors to pit against each other. It ain't easy finding these bad boys (unless you live in Wisconsin). Jaguar Ice's competitor today will be Dark Horse Ice, which also has black-and-blue can graphics.
Rich gold that is almost dark enough to be considered orange. The foam is a bit darker as well, verging on pale ecru rather than any shade of white. Not surprisingly, the texture sucks and there isn't much lace on the glass.
At only 6.0%, it isn't surprising that this AML doesn't have a ton of raw alcohol emanating from the glass. Actually, the nose is pretty weak in general and doesn't smell very corny or very sweet.
Despite the snarling Jaguar on the can, Jaguar Ice is pretty wimpy stuff. In fact, it's more of a pussy cat than a fierce jungle cat. Anyone looking to get drunk will need 6-8 cans at least. Flavors include lightly sweet corn, musky hops (not many) and a background blip of ethanol. Boooring.
Without many malt sugars (or added sugar?) the mouthfeel is weak as well. It's too light for the style and has very little carbonation. That makes drinking quickly a breeze if that's your preference. My preference is to avoid drinking this shite again.
Neither one of these so-called American malt liquors is worth a damn. Beer of this style gains what little charm it has by being aggressive, not by being dainty and pussyfooting around on the palate. Jaguar Ice is today's loser, but it's only because of a slightly less appealing appearance. Them's the breaks.

24 oz can.
Jaguar Brewing Company; Lacrosse, Wisconsin.
6% abv.
Clear gold color, slightly fizzy head of white foam..some sticks around on the glass surprisingly.
Aroma is pretty awful really. Stale corn..slightly sweet & musty.
Taste is fairly bland, but not overly offensive...which is not a compliment, but I'm just saying I've had worse. Macro-ish, generic flavoring that really wears on you after a while. Sticky texture...as it warms, it gets to the point of being undrinkable because the sweet corn flavors get extremely stale-tasting.
At $1.19 for a 24oz can, this won't kill your budget...but your palate will not thank you. I'd steer clear from this one, as it does no justice to a style that gets almost zero respect already.

PARIS — The District Attorney's Office has dismissed charges against a Bethel businessman after an argument outside a Bethel Board of Selectmen meeting in May.
Rick A. Savage Sr., of Intervale Road, was arrested in May after an argument with Peter Mason, the husband of Bethel Town Clerk Christen Mason, who was upset because Savage had called their home about a petition to remove the town's sign ordinance. Savage was charged with disorderly conduct and refusing to submit to arrest.
A memorandum from Assistant District Attorney Richard Beauchesne explained the reason for dismissing each charge. The first disorderly conduct charge alleged that Savage taunted Mason and backed him over a fence, but Mason didn't include that in his testimony, stating only that Savage "started getting loud."
For the second disorderly conduct charge, alleging "loud and unreasonable noise," Beauchesne wrote there wasn't sufficient evidence that Savage annoyed others. For the resisting arrest charge, Savage's actions while Deputy Matthew Noyes was arresting him were "if at all, barely sufficient to meet the requirements of the statute," the memorandum read.
The memorandum, dated Nov. 15, was written the day after Savage waived a jury trial for the charges in Oxford County Superior Court.
Savage, who runs several contracting and real estate businesses with his brother, Ron Savage, as well as the Black Diamond Steakhouse, said the charges were trumped up. He said that many in the town want to quiet him and his brother.
"The town has been corrupt for a long time, and we've been calling them out, and this is how they come back on us," Savage said Monday.
"We don't mind raising our voice when there's a problem," he said. "And there's been a problem for a long time."
Savage and his brother had been unsuccessful in getting permission from the town to set up directional signs pointing the way to the Black Diamond Steakhouse on the Sunday River access road. He proposed a change that would direct people to other businesses on the access road.
"It was a perfectly reasonable change to the ordinance," Town Manager Jim Doar said. However, the ordinance review committee decided that while it was a good solution for Sunday River road businesses, it wouldn't fit the whole town.
Savage and his brother then collected more than 130 signatures for a petition to eliminate the town's sign ordinance. The issue would have been voted on at the June town meeting.
Doar said the petition didn't arrive on time and wasn't specific enough. Savage called the home of the town clerk and sent someone to Doar's home with additional signatures, which Doar later called "completely inappropriate and a little unnerving."
Doar said there was opposition to repealing the ordinance, and instead of putting the question to a town meeting vote, voters were asked to appropriate $10,000 to hire a consultant and started a special committee to look into options on changing the sign ordinance.
Savage said that's not enough. "The bottom line is this: It's not what the will of the people wanted on the petition." He called Doar and the Board of Selectmen "corrupt."
"He's corrupt and he's a liar," Savage said of Doar on Monday.
"I won't even justify that with a response," Doar said Savage's statement.
Savage has since had other problems with the town's sign ordinance. He said a trailer parked by the road at his mother's house had the name and address of the Black Diamond Steakhouse and that he was forced to remove the address.
In October, he was told to remove the word "steakhouse" from signs for a farm stand at the Black Diamond Steakhouse. Signs for farm stands are exempt from the ordinance in the fall, and Savage had put up signs for the "Black Diamond Steakhouse Farm Stand," but the town determined that the sign was also advertising his restaurant in violation of the ordinance.

Library fines are a bit of a joke. I have had to pay fines recently because the 2 books I had on hold were on different shelves and I only picked up one by mistake and also because I went to pick up a book after they opened the Mitchell Park library at Cubberley when I had ordered the book for Mitchell Park and they had it on hold at Main and it was too late that day to go and get it.
I paid my fines even though I thought it was their mistake not mine, but I had to ask to do so rather than not be allowed to check out more books until fines had been paid. It would make a lot of sense if you were prevented from checking out books until you had paid the fine or at least spoken with the librarian about it. Or, would that make too much sense?
on Feb 23, 2011 at 6:14 pm
Yes to "no checking out more books if any unpaid fines more than 30 days late."
No to collection agencies.
Yes to "cap the late fee on a book to the replacement cost of that book (including some restocking fee)".
I'd love to see how it gets to $300,000? Is it some families have moved away with unreturned books? Some books late by several years?

When the Auditor's office isn't given specific direction and tasks from the City Council, they go off on these meaningless tangents in an attempt justify their existence.
When they are given specific direction and tasks, it's always something politically correct, and usually a witch hunt.

"Owner of Restaurant in China Says Unethical Customers are not Allowed" - Ethics Newsline
In this article it descibes the feelings of a restaurant owner named Li in China on his customers. He feels that his customers should be ethical and have good morales. Some of the things that Li views as unethical is bringing mistrisses, not treating parents properly and not using public money properly. Something that this owner realizes to is that it it is hard to try to filter out people that go into his restaurant. One other thing is that this owner does not care about the money he may lose in the process of filtering his potential customers.
My opinion
I would have to disagree with the restaurant owners views. It may be nice to have decent and honest customers but you will be losing money by filtering out customers. If you are running your own business the whole point is to make money and have your place stay financially stable. By cutting out customers it may hurt how successful your business is.

Dinwiddie Animal Control officials are working to track down the person cruel enough to discard a newborn calf in a dumpster. The baby animal was left for dead in a large trash bin off Wilson Road in Dinwiddie.
Chaley Sadler and her husband tried desperately to rescue the animal, Saturday evening. However, it ultimately had to be put down.
"We looked over inside the dumpster and it was laying right there. And it just started going crazy," described Chaley. "It got caught up in the corner, and was banging its head up on the side, and I was just screaming and crying."
The couple rushed the calf to their home, wrapping it with blankets and placing the newborn calf near a heater in the laundry room. Chaley stayed up all night feeding it milk. However, the calf was hardly stable.
"It's mouth just kept staying open. It would not close. And its head kept throwing back," continued Chaley of the heartbreaking situation. "It started mooing at us, so we got hope. We were thinking it was going to pull through."
However, the couple knew something wasn't right with the calf.
A veterinarian tried to save the animal the next day, hooking it up to an IV. However, the vet determined the animal had a deformity in its mouth. It wouldn't survive and had to be put down.
The animal appeared normal to a lay person. Whoever threw the animal out likely knew it had a deformity and wouldn't be profitable.
"Somebody who knew this calf would not survive threw it in a dumpster...threw it in there to let it suffer," said Chaley with tears in her eyes.
Chaley and her family buried the calf in their yard.
By law, an animal must be put down humanely. Whoever threw the live calf in the dumpster faces animal cruelty charges and jail time. Dinwiddie Chief Warden of Animal Control, Alvin Langley, says he and officers are actively investigating.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- Two people were hospitalized Saturday after their small plane towing a banner crashed near tailgaters gathered for the Florida football game against Arkansas.
The plane's propeller stopped and the pilot jettisoned the banner before trying to make an emergency landing in Flavet Field, said University of Florida Police Chief Linda Stump.
The plane rolled on the ground and bounced into a tree-filled area south of the band shell, Stump said.
Images from the scene show the mangled plane atop an empty, overturned pickup truck.
No injuries on the ground were reported.
"All we heard was the crash. We didn't even hear the plane come in," Katy Crannell, one of tailgaters who witnessed the crash, told The Gainesville Sun.
Both people aboard the plane were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, Stump said.
Stump said her agency has tried to limit banner-towing planes since 2001, but with no success.
