ATLANTA -- A Fulton County judge has ruled that the Georgia Charter Schools Commission does not violate the state's constitution.
During a hearing Friday, Superior Court Judge Wendy Shoob ruled from the bench against seven public school districts challenging the state's charter school law. The districts said the commission is illegal and should not be allowed to take their state funding away and give it to charter schools.
The state argued that the charter schools law is legally sound.
The ruling prevents the lawsuit from going to trial. Attorneys for the districts said they likely will appeal Shoob's ruling.
The school districts suing the state are: Gwinnett County, Atlanta, DeKalb County, Bulloch County, Candler County, Henry County and Griffin-Spalding County.

Winter is the time to enjoy seasonal root vegetables such as parsnips. They resemble carrots without the orange color and have a slightly more complex and sweeter herbal flavor. The two vegetables taste great together, and nearly any recipe calling for either carrots or parsnips will produce lovely results if you use a combination of the two.
Besides their sweet flavor, parsnips bring vitamin C, folate and potassium to the table. Parsnips played a more prominent role in Mediterranean and British Colonial cooking before the potato became the root vegetable of choice.
Parsnips, carrots and potatoes can be cooked the same way — roasted, boiled or fried. Parsnips have great body when pureed (delicious with roasted meat or fish), and when roasted, they caramelize on the outside and turn creamy within. They make a silken creamy soup without the need for additional cream.
Buy a pound or two of them on your next trip to the market and you'll discover a new star for your winter Sunday suppers. Here are tips for enjoying parsnips:
• Choose small to medium creamy white roots that are smooth, firm and blemish-free. Soft spots, limpness and a shriveled end are signs that a parsnip is old and will probably be woody and dry. Winter parsnips are often sweeter than those picked in the fall, since cold weather converts their starches to sugars.
• Keep parsnips unwashed (moisture speeds decay) in a ventilated plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to a month.
• Small, tender parsnips may be peeled and grated raw into salads.
• Peel parsnips just before cooking just like you would carrots. If you find a bitter woody core in a large parsnip, remove it with a paring knife.
• Peeled and pared parsnips will turn dark when exposed to the air, so cook them right away or hold them in water with a bit of lemon juice added.
• Parsnips are slightly softer than carrots and require a shorter cooking time. To avoid mushy parsnips, add them to soups and stews near the end of the cooking time.

Epilepsy researcher Detlev Boison and low-carb physician Dr. Fred Pescatore are our guests today on The Livin' La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore!
Detlev Boison is the lead researcher on a study examining the underlying reasons why a ketogenic diet (high-fat, low-carb) is such an effective means of controlling epilepsy and the resulting seizures. Today he joins us for a quick last-minute interview we weren't sure we'd get before today's episode–but it's cutting-edge stuff we know you'll love and appreciate! Jimmy and Detlev discuss the new published study, its applicability to human physiology, protein pathology and so much more!
Then in the main interview today, Jimmy invites an old friend of his who's never been on the podcast before–the great Dr. Fred Pescatore. Jimmy and Dr. Pescatore talk about his years at the Atkins Center working with the late Dr. Robert C. Atkins, the state of low-carb science in 2011, the denial of science by medical schools and many other timely topics! This is a fabulous episode you won't want to miss!

Flash from Curiosity Rover's Laser Hitting a Martian Rock - July 16, 2014
The sparks that appear on the baseball-sized rock result from the laser of the ChemCam instrument on NASA's Curiosity Mars rover hitting the rock.
ChemCam's laser zapping of this particular rock was the first time the team used Curiosity's arm-mounted Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) camera to try and capture images of the spark generated by the laser hitting a rock on Mars.
The process, called laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy, hits a target with pulses from a laser to generate sparks, whose spectra provide information about which chemical elements are in the target. Multiple laser shots are fired in sequence, each blasting away a thin layer of material so that the following shot examines a slightly deeper layer. In this case, "Nova" displayed an increasing concentration of aluminum as a series of laser shots from the rover penetrated through dust on the rock's surface.
The video is compiled from single images from the MAHLI camera, taken during the 687th Martian day, or sol, of Curiosity's work on Mars (July 12, 2014).

Phil Robertson, star of the hit A&E reality series "Duck Dynasty," has been put on hiatus by the network after he made inflammatory remarks about homosexuality.
In a new interview with GQ magazine, Robertson, 67, who turned to God after his own struggles with morality, explained that, in his eyes, homosexual behavior – along with bestiality – is sinful.
"Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there," he said. "Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men."
Still, "We never, ever judge someone on who's going to heaven, hell. That's the Almighty's job," he added. "We just love 'em, give 'em the good news about Jesus, whether they're homosexuals, drunks, terrorists. We let God sort 'em out later, you see what I'm saying?"
In a statement released this evening, A&E said Robertson has been put on hiatus from the series.
"We are extremely disappointed to have read Phil Robertson's comments in GQ, which are based on his own personal beliefs and are not reflected in the series 'Duck Dynasty.' His personal views in no way reflect those of A+E Networks, who have always been strong supporters and champions of the LGBT community. The network has placed Phil under hiatus from filming indefinitely," the network said in the statement.
GLAAD released a statement calling his sentiments "some of the vilest and most extreme statements uttered against LGBT people in a mainstream publication."
"Phil and his family claim to be Christian, but Phil's lies about an entire community fly in the face of what true Christians believe," GLAAD spokesman Wilson Cruz said. "He clearly knows nothing about gay people or the majority of Louisianans – and Americans – who support legal recognition for loving and committed gay and lesbian couples. Phil's decision to push vile and extreme stereotypes is a stain on A&E and his sponsors, who now need to re-examine their ties to someone with such public disdain for LGBT people and families."
Robertson and his family, including son Jep, who has said he's "definitely in line" with his father's beliefs, live in Louisiana.
"We're Bible-thumpers who just happened to end up on television," Phil Robertson told GQ. "The Robertson family really believes strongly that if the human race loved each other and they loved God, we would just be better off. We ought to just be repentant, turn to God, and let's get on with it, and everything will turn around."

BURGAW, NC (WECT) - Fire officials, including Pender County fire marshals and the SBI, are investigating what they call a suspicious house fire in Burgaw.
Three fire departments responded to the fire at a home in the 1200 block of Old Savannah Road South, according to Pender County dispatch. The call came in around 2:35 Wednesday morning.
According to Tommy Batson, Pender County Deputy Fire Marshal, the house was engulfed in flames when fire crews arrived on the scene.
Neighbor David Organ said the fire was so intense it looked like broad daylight outside, rather than 3 a.m.
Crews were able to put out the fire, but the property is a complete loss.
Officials estimate no one has lived in the home since June.

|What's the plan in IndyCar? Does anybody know?
|Tuesday, October 30, 2012 7:35 AM
The Associated Press
Surely there must be some misunderstanding, and the board of directors charged with overseeing IndyCar really does have a long-term strategy for the series.
One problem? IndyCar doesn't seem to think it has a crisis, even though powerful team owner Roger Penske accused the board of directors of showing "poor judgment" following Sunday night's firing of Bernard.

Credit Unions need to do some extra digging to see who is trying to sneak that through. Banks have longed for this to happen. If it came with giving credit unions more freedom to raise capital and widen memberships it might not be an entirely bad thing. Although, it could lead to there not being much differentiation between the two.

Historic visit by Queen to Blackburn a huge success
Updated 8:02pm Friday 18th April 2014 in News
CHEERS and bells rang out across Blackburn town centre to welcome the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh for one of the most important royal occasions of the year.
Thousands lined the streets, waving flags to welcome the Head of State and her husband, who arrived at Blackburn Railway Station by royal train before making their way the town's Cathedral for the historic Maundy Thursday service.
Royalists young and old had spent the morning waiting for the couple, several wearing Union Jack fancy dress, so they could cheer as the royal procession went past.
Some had even been there since the early hours of the morning to get the best vantage point possible to catch a glimpse of the Queen.
It was the first time in Blackburn's history the important royal ceremony was held at the cathedral, as well as a first for the county. During the service the Queen presented specially minted Maundy money to the 88 men and 88 women from across Lancashire, who had been nominated for their good Christian works.
It is the only service throughout the year in which the Queen actually travels to meet recipients, an echo of the act of humility Jesus carried out after the Last Supper of washing his disciples feet.
After waving to excited supporters outside the Railway Station, the royal party travelled slowly along the Boulevard and then Church Street, which was thronged with wellwishers.
A fleet of police motorcycles had heralded the Queen's arrival, as the clergy stood and waited at the West Door, holding bouquets of flowers.
Just behind came three cars carrying dignitaries, including Blackburn mayor Coun Salim Mulla, and the town's MP Jack Straw. Once the advanced party had been ushered into a side door of the cathedral, the Queen's claret Rolls Royce pulled up outside, to the roar of cheers from the gathered crowd.
Her Majesty and Prince Philip stepped out of the car where they were greeted by the Bishop of Blackburn Julian Henderson, and the Dean of Blackburn Christopher Armstrong.
The Queen wore a printed woollen dress in cerise, grey and cream designed by Stuart Parvin. Over the top, she had a matching cashmere coat with black buttons down the front.
Her hat, also in a beautiful cerise colour, was designed by Angela K. Silver broaches in the shape of flowers and feathers were pinned to her coat and hat. The monarch topped off her elegant outfit with black patent leather shoes and black gloves.
The royal couple could be seen smiling broadly, and after a brief exchanging of conversation they were led inside. The moving service, which brought some of the Maundy recipients to tears, saw each of the nominated pensioners receive two leather pouches with coins inside.
The tradition, which dates back around 700 years, involved the Queen handing over the Maundy money to people who had given up their time to help their communities. Eighty eight men and 88 women were chosen to signify the Queen's age.
After the hour long service, the Cathedral bells rang out once more and the Yeomen of the Guard started to take their places outside the Cathedral's West Door. More Beefeaters lined up to form two lines on either side of the building's door.
Next came the Maundy children, four local youngsters who took part in the service, and the clergy, closely followed by the Queen and Prince Philip, all holding flowers.
The party posed in front of the assembled group of photographers for official pictures, before the royal couple got back into their Rolls Royce and were driven away to Ewood Park for lunch with 98 invited guests from across Lancashire, including local dignitaries.
Prior to the meal the Queen held a private reception with Bishop and other leading members of the clergy.
As they passed through the crowds, the Queen smiled and wave to people, who waved flags and cheered loudly.
It was agreed by all that the occasion had been a great success and that Blackburn had done the royals proud.
Coun Mulla, who later enjoyed lunch sat next to the Queen, said: "It was an absolutely amazing day, it is one I will never forget.
"I'm on such a high after that experience, it was an incredible day for this town.
"From the service with so many local people being recognised for their work, to the fantastic lunch and the chance to speak for so long with the Queen, every minute was one to remember."
Coun Kate Hollern, leader of Blackburn with Darwen Council, said she spoke to the Duke about the work that was being done to renovate the town centre.
She said: "It was a fantastic day and it was a great honour for Blackburn.
"I was telling Prince Philip the Boulevard is being transformed and he said the hoardings looked interesting.
"It is difficult times with the renovations going on, but it showed Blackburn is still on the up and there is a lot happening."
Blackburn MP Jack Straw said: "The Queen was amazing. I was watching her going down to speak to all of the beneficiaries and she had a smile for each one of them. It was extraordinary.
"I think it is fantastic for the town to host the Maundy service. The place has been buzzing in anticipation and will carry on buzzing.
"She was given the warmest of Lancashire welcomes."
The Rt Rev Julian Henderson, Bishop of Blackburn, said: "It was incredibly humbling for me to be involved with this service and a massive privilege. To welcome the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh to the Cathedral is something I'll never forget.
"My predecessor never got the chance to do that, and in my first year it has fallen on me to do this Maundy service.
"It is a fantastic day for Lancashire and especially for the 176 people who were recognised for their service over the years.
"I spoke to the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh briefly. It is a nice day for them, usually it is people going to the Palace for awards, but this is the one day a year when they come to their people."

Great to see the crowds out for the Queen. And the reason for her visit should be a sober reminder to many that this is still a Christian country with Christian values.

Ibrahim Bah is a Senegalese national living in Sierra Leone. During the Sierra Leone civil war, from 1991 to 2002, Bah allegedly provided arms and materiel to the rebel Revolutionary United Front (RUF), according to a United Nations panel of experts and the UN-backed Special Court for Sierra Leone. During the conflict, the RUF committed widespread and systematic abuses, including murder, mutilation, amputation, torture, rape, and forced abductions.
The trial of the former Liberian President Charles Taylor for war crimes and crimes against humanity during Sierra Leone's armed conflict was a largely well-run proceeding, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today. The trial benefitted from a high-quality defense, sound handling of witnesses, and dynamic outreach to communities affected by the crimes. At the same time, Human Rights Watch's analysis identified areas in which practice should be improved for future trials of the highest-level suspects before domestic, international, and hybrid war crimes tribunals.

Volvo - basic company info and current lineup
Volvo is Swedish luxury car brand, a world's safety pioneer.
For decades, Volvos were indisputably safe and reliable cars, but also very dull. That's why the main target market was elderly people who put safety and reliability in front. However, latest Volvo design trends (airy dashboard for example) are clearly marking its path to young drivers' hearts, presenting the cars as dynamic and hype.
Current Volvo Lineup:
Despite the overall loses, Volvo managed to produce a high end edition of its model C70.
Production is limited to 2000 cars marked "Inscription". It will have plenty of aluminum and chrome details, pitch black 18" alu wheels, high quality leather interior, used on the dashboard, too. It will be available in black or white color. Engines are already used in other Volvo cars - 230bhp T5, and 2 diesel engines (150bhp D3 and 177bhp D4).
Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid combines efficient 2,4l diesel engine and LI-Ion 12W battery. Diesel engine refills the battery, average CO2 emission is a mere 49g/km, with outstanding fuel consumption of only 1,9l per 100km.

Health experts from the American Academy of Pediatrics issued a recommendation last week that every child be screened for Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. It is believed that nearly one in every three women drink while they're pregnant, and experts at Emory University have started a new approach to the treatment of those babies born with FAS.
"If I had to give advice to anyone, I would say do not drink," said Dr. Claire Coles.
She helps run the program at Emory that sees 300 FAS children each year. Her department's new approach to treating the condition involves helping kids develop plans for action, then helping them stick to those plans.
Part of the new treatment method involves a video game to help re-enforce the lessons.
"No one has ever done it before," said Coles, speaking of her department's new approach. "The reason is because no one has cared to pay attention to (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome). No one has funded studies in this area."
A recent study by several health experts in Denmark indicates that pregnant women may safely consume small to moderate amounts of alcohol. Coles said she disagrees with the findings.

So, I'm taking this film class this quarter and I had the wonderful opportunity to watch Georges Méliès' "Le Voyage dans la Lune (A Trip to the Moon)". The film itself is over a hundred years old, absolutely amazing AND in the public domain.
At first, I thought this would be excellent film to recreate here on hitRECord, but the more I thought about it, this could easily be turned into a third Morgan M. Morgansen video. We could call it, I don't know, "Morgan M. Morgansen and Destiny's Date to the Moon"?
Question is: Do you want to turn A Trip to the Moon into a third MMM?
I would really like for us to do a third Morgan video and I know we could do it if we all work hard at it. :]
I really hope you guys would like to work on this with me. :)

Grants to Help Local Programs Partner with Law Enforcement
Dec 23, 2008
The Maryland Network Against Domestic Violence (MNADV) is offering an opportunity for domestic violence programs around the country and their local law enforcement agencies to partner to improve the response to high-danger victims of domestic violence.
The U.S. Department of Justice awarded a one-year Edward Byrne Memorial Grant to MNADV to provide free train-the-trainer instruction and technical assistance to law enforcement agencies and community-based domestic violence programs in five regions to implement the Domestic Violence Lethality Assessment Program (LAP) in their jurisdictions and expand the LAP to other areas in their states.
Developed by the MNADV, the LAP is a two-pronged first responder intervention process that uses a specialized lethality assessment instrument and accompanying protocol. Trained police officers on the scene of a domestic violence call assess a victim's risk for serious injury or death using the "Lethality Assessment Screen," and immediately link high-risk victims to the community-based domestic violence hotline in their area.
The LAP enables police officers and local domestic violence service providers to work as equal partners in a more coordinated, communicative and cooperative manner to engage victims who would otherwise be unlikely to seek support from domestic violence services. The LAP is the only program of its kind in the nation and was recently recognized by Harvard University's Ash Institute as one of the "Top 50" Innovations in American government programs.

The reason? Certain college officials wanted to keep making money off the tuition from students enrolled in the program, which included many Wall Streeters whose firms were paying for the classes, according to the Post. To do that, they had to inflate the grades of certain students who were bound to fail out of the program.
The accelerated programs allow people in business/finance to work full-time and obtain a master's degree in finance in a year, or an MBA in two years. Tuition for the programs range between $45,000 to $75,000.
From the Post—
"It was done for money," an insider said of the scam. "They get a lot more money from those students. They don't want to lose these people, so they changed their grades."
The result of the CUNY probe that uncovered the forgeries were reported to the Faculty Senate in March. Law enforcement officials have also been notified.
In addition, it appears that some students whose grades were inflated might not be able to hold onto their degrees, according to the Post.
Ouch. We just want to know which Wall Streeters were such bad students that they now have invalid business degrees.

On tap at The Gahan House as part of the sampler.
Pours a mostly clear pale golden color with a smallish white head.
Aromas of light sweet bready malt with hints of spicy floral hop.
Flavor follows the aroma.
Decent enough lager, but nothing horribly complex.

I've never had this beer before but my moms in-laws gave me the matching Beach Chair pint glass a ways back so I dumped a 355ml can into it 13/9/13
A clear golden yellow liquid with a shitload of bubbles feeding a very well sustained two finger foam that cakes my glass with lace, looks great
S honey, sweet malts, candied corn and faint herbal notes
T sweet and grainy, not far from the nose, not a whole lot going on but what's there's decent
M plenty of body for a lager, almost creamy from the bubbles and a little slick after the fact with a sweet honey finish
O looks and feels great but a little basic in other areas, pretty good for a simple lager I suppose
I'm glad I got to try the beer that matches a glass that's been sitting in my collection for quite a while. pretty solid example of the style but that still doesn't leave a very exciting brew

Beach Chair Lager
Prince Edward Island Brewing Company, based in Charlotteown, PEI.
Appearance - Hazy darker yellow coloured. Two fingers of creamy white head which stayed strong throughout.
Smell - Smells strongly of malt, a bittersweet cocophany of organic flavours. Has a certain bitter scent.
Taste - True to it's heritage, it tasted slightly bitter but otherwise had a distinct lack of strong flavours. Much of the taste is in it's after-taste, as the bitter outweighs the flavours while it's in your mouth. Mimics it's smell very well. All in all, it's not bad but it's not noteworthy either.
Mouthfeel - Heavy and thick, like a milkshake. It sits very comfortably post-swallow however.
Overall - What it lacks in taste it makes up for with utilitarianism. It's a beer that you can pair with anything that doesn't require a great deal of thought. Having a barbeque and want something everyone will enjoy with a steak? This is it. Looking for a beer with a full bouquet of flavour and aromas to enjoy and savour? Look elsewhere. Two and a Half Stars out of Five.

355ml can, thanks again to the Alberta rep for the sample of a now muddled to me brand - is the PEI Brewing Company the same thing as Gahan House? Give me a reason to care.
This beer pours a crystal clear, pale golden straw colour, with a tumultuous amount of airily puffy, loosely creamy, dirty white head, which leaves a pleasantly splendiferous painting of layered cloud lace around the glass as things quickly head south.
It smells of surprisingly crisp, biscuity pale malt, a decent lemon ester fruitiness, and understated, but still sassy leafy, grassy hops. The taste is a bit of letdown (what is it with this brewery?), as the malt loses its crispiness, the lemon essence damned near disappears, and the hops barely hold on to more than a measly note of their heretofore promising Saaz-esque self.
The bubbles are generally active and sturdy enough, the body an actually decent medium weight for this usually anemic style, and smooth enough if you don't think all that hard about it. It finishes barely off-dry, the malt gaining little fervour, and the hops, in their near zombie state, force the same sort of un-dead fear on the proceedings one might expect.
Not the worst beach-themed pale lager that I've encountered, by a long mile. The malt and hop interplay is indeed there, but unpredictable at best, and opportunity lost seems to be the lesson I take from this. Given that this comes in 12-packs in these parts, it's a bit hard to recommend this at 30+ Canuckbucks a shot, when you can get 15 Brewhouse Pils (an adequate overall equivalency - if you doubt me - let's throw down!) for 10 ducats less right now.

Courtesy of the inCANperable Deuane, in fact, hand-delivered to me today in support of The CANQuest (TM)! Many thanks, fellow ex-BFG! I wonder if inflatablechair knows about this beer ...
From the CAN: "All Natural"; "From the red cliffs and sandy beaches of Prince Edward Island comes a beer as natural as the island itself - Beach Chair Lager".
I am looking forward to this after so many AALs! Many people call lager-style beers "boring", but they are challenging to make when there is nothing to hide their flaws. My Crack and inverted Glug got me a finger of fizzy, bone-white head that quickly dissipated its way out of existence. Color was a golden-yellow with NE-quality clarity and lots of carbonation in evidence. Midas and Croesus drooled while Greg Koch shook his head. Nose was clean, malty-sweet, honey-like, just what I want in a lager. Mouthfeel was thin-to-medium and the taste was clean, unadulterated lager, slightly sweet with honey-like taste that I mentioned earlier. It may not seem like much to others, but after oh-so-many AALs, the chance to drink adjunct-free lager is cause for celebration in my book. Finish was semi-sweet and pleasant. I would not want a steady diet, but as a change-up, it was nice.

Just a note: this brew has improved in quality a bit in the last year, in my opinion. There's nothing to rave about, but nothing to hate about it either. It's a solid-enough lager these days. (edited May 25/2013)
The first time I had it:
It is really pale in the pour, but dark enough in the glass. It has a decent head, but looks light - it reduces to a sliver of a white ring in not too long of a time. It is perfectly clear and has some light carbonation in the glass.
It has a bit of a rice smell to it, despite none being used. Light, dried-grassy hops. A slight spicy note (could be the grassy hops smell at play).
So... how's it taste? Not really bad, but not great. It's just kind of bland. Really, though, maybe that's the plan. I can't say the last time I sat at the beach and drank a fantastic beer. This is more of a "Holy Hell, it's hot, I need something wet," "What should we take on our fishing trip that won't break?" or "Let's go tan and drink at the same time" kind of beer. You're not going to be thinking critically when you drink it, like I am right now - it's just a beer that you'd have at the beach, a BBQ, whatever. Because it's not strong in flavour, it'd go with a lot of things. It's utilitarian... kind of like my wife's review: "It tastes like that last drink in the bottom of the bottle that's been sitting there all night and you gulp it down before you leave for the bar or something." All that being said, it's drinkable. Just not notable. Lots of folks (most, probably) will think it's fine, and that's great. I just wish it was great, too.
In the mouth, it's very light in body and carbonation, just slightly bitter and a little acidic / tangy.
Overall, I think you get my gist. I pull for every local brewer (PEI and Atlantic Canada) to succeed with every offering, but, of course, that's unrealistic. A good commercial lager's a hard thing to pull off - strong points are usually subtle, and any weaknesses are hard to mask. I hope the brewery does well with it, but I hope they improve it, too. My main fear is wondering who will pay (other than tourists) $3.25 for a single can of this when they can get something mass-market in a sixer or more for much cheaper per unit.

The Tennessee Titans finally have their change of pace running back for Chris Johnson. Wednesday on the second day of the NFL's free agent period, multiple reports have the Titans agreeing to terms with former Jets running back Shonn Greene.It's reportedly a three-year deal worth $10 million.Mike Munchak has expressed an interest in getting a "bigger" back to compliment Johnson's speed and cut down on the pounding he takes all season.Greene certainly fills that roll at 5 feet, 10 inches tall and 235 pounds."He is a nice complement to Chris [Johnson] and an accomplished back in his own right," said Titans general manager Ruston Webster. "He is a tough and physical runner who has rushed for 1,000 yards each of the last two years."In four seasons with the Jets, Greene has rushed 3,243 yards and 18 touchdowns. He had a career high 1,063 last season.Greene was a third round draft pick out of Iowa in 2009.

Carlmont spotlight at the Peninsula Athletic League track and field championships
Carlmont High sophomore distance runner Corin Soelberg
"This year, I wasn't quite sure what was going to happen. I'm really excited. I was hoping for at least third (in the 800-meter race), so getting second was amazing." – Soelberg, whose haul at the PAL finals included two second-place finishes (800 and 3200) and a third (1600).
The Menlo-Atherton High track and field program captured team titles in both the girls and boys divisions at the Peninsula Athletic League championships at College of San Mateo on Wednesday afternoon.
M-A's route to the girls championship was powered by first-place sizzle. The Bears opened the meet by streaking to a big win in the 4x100-meter relay. Then Catherine Carpenter handily won the 200- and 400- meter dashes in 26.43 and 58.64 seconds, respectively, and freshman Naomi Tovar (12.97) took the 100 in a photo finish.
How M-A claimed the boys title was more subtle. The Bears didn't win a single event on Wednesday – senior Stas Della Morte's long jump title came a week earlier – but the team rode a slew of complementary finishes to the championship. Chief among those highlights: junior Michael Hester was second in the 800 (2:01.65) and fourth in the 1600 in 4:30.89, Della Morte took second in the high jump (5 feet, 9.25 inches) and fourth in the 100 (11.54), and Di'jonn Williams placed third in the high jump (5-9.25).
"It's kind of the culmination, right about now," said Hester, who gave ample credit to M-A first-year coach Alan Perry for the program's resurgence. "When we came in as freshmen, that was pretty much the low point. I think next year will be the peak. It's a lot of fun. It's definitely exciting."
The M-A girls finished with 74.5 points, edging Westmoor (71.5) by taking second in the final event, the 4x400 relay. Woodside was third with 58 points, and Aragon (51 points) fourth.
The depth of the M-A boys team proved just enough to top star-studded Woodside. Woodside (67 points) claimed individual titles in the 400 (Jason Chandler), 800 (Chris Waschura) and 1600 (Waschura), and finished one point behind M-A. San Mateo (63.5) and Mills (57) were third and fourth, respectively.
San Mateo senior Jesse Wong was the day's top individual finisher among the boys, claiming league championships in the 110 hurdles (15.91) and 300 hurdles (41.16), and taking third in the triple jump (41-10.75).
"It's definitely a big day for me," Wong said. "I don't think I've ever (had) double firsts. I try not to get too caught up in medals, maybe because I don't usually win too many anyway … so each one is special to me."
Woodside's Waschura, a junior, was the other double winner among boys. He won the 800 for the third year in a row at 1:56.52, and also defended his 2010 PAL title in the 1600 (4:24.78).
Waschura, who entered the week as the Central Coast Section leader in both events, was eager to get the postseason underway with the section semifinals at Gilroy High on May 21. (The top five PAL finishers in each event advance to CCS.)
"Now it's really time to get focused and run the fast times, a whole different aspect to be nervous about," Waschura said.
Chandler, his teammate, also repeated as league champion in the 400 (49.70).
Carlmont's Theo Yeh, Shane Callan, Brian Wyatt and Thomas Yeh won the boys 4x100 in 44.67.
Sequoia junior Gabriel Ortiz recovered from a broken left leg a year ago to win the boys 200 in 22.77. He narrowly missed taking the 100 as well, finishing second in 11.50, just behind Westmoor's Turner Washington (11.48).
Woodside's Christina Dobbins enjoyed an outstanding showing among PAL girls. After winning the high jump a week ago, the senior claimed the 100 hurdles title in 15.78 and finished second in the 300 hurdles (46.88). Teammate Taylor Duffner won the triple jump, an event she took up this year, in 34-0.5, and was second behind Dobbins in the 100 hurdles (16.28).
Mills sophomore Sabrina Mendoza ensured a sweep of the throws, winning the discus in 109-8. She took the shot put last week.
Westmoor sophomore Kylie Goo was another double winner -- taking the 800 in 2:18.36 and the 3200 in 11:41.79. She added a second-place finish in the 1600 (5:15.67).
Burlingame's Allison Daley, a 2010 state qualifier and the current CCS leader, defended her league title in the 300 hurdles in 45.26. Teammate Madison Mason, who won the long jump a week earlier, finished second in the triple jump at 33-8.
Aragon's Lauren Croshaw took the 1600 for the second year in a row in 5:15.24. Her teammates Kimi Hashizume, Addy Eveslage, Chanel Joyce and Candice de Sauvage won the 4x400 relay in 4:09.39, an event in which the Dons are among the section leaders.
Terra Nova senior Reina McAlexander won the girls pole vault in 9-0.25.
M-A's Peyton Bush, Daryn Tinsley, Megan Kurtz and Tovar teamed to win the girls 4x100 in 50.85.
Hillsdale senior Chris Carter claimed the boys shot put with a toss of 46-10. South San Francisco junior Dominic Goodman won the triple jump in 42-1.5, narrowly beating Woodside's Anthony Hillerby (42-0.25). Mills senior Marcus Chew took the high jump in 5-11.25. Aragon sophomore Christian Pedro (9:45.42) won the 3200 by more than 13 seconds.
Woodside's Kyle Feuerhelm joined Hillerby, Chandler and Waschura to cap the meet by taking the boys 4x400 in 3:27.63.

Granpa's Soap have not changed any of their soap formulations even though the shape and package may look new. And, yes, Grandma & Grandpa are still together after all these years! The Nature de France line of French Clay soaps and deodorants is the newest addition to Grandpa's family of "skin care from nature" products.
Since 1888 C. S. DENT & COMPANY has been supplying pharmacists with a line of quality, over-the-counter dental and ear products. Learn more about these products, visit the Dent's page. Grandpa is confident that you will enjoy his soap as generations have since 1878. Times have changed but their commitment to bring you the highest quality personal care products remains.

An old idiom is brought back to life in the physics puzzle gaming scene in Eliot Pace's sequel to Pigs Can Fly. Manipulate multiple objects using time-and-space distorting colored potions so a little pig can get some wings. With a re-imagined look, more depth to the puzzles, and the same physics gameplay, this oinker has learned a few new tricks that are a welcome sight. This porker is as lazy as pigs get so it could use all the help it could get.

A remote and small village church, St. Eustace is hidden away up a shingle and chalk track. Wonder how many of the Echo readership would even know where it is, yet alone visited it?
Something for the Parish magazine, not the Echo, I would have thought?
