By Robin Jedlicka - bio | email VALDOSTA, GA (WALB) - A new outdoor classroom at Sallas Mahone Elementary School is also a tribute to local hero.
On Friday, the school opened the Scott Craven Café.
Craven was an airman stationed at Moody Air Force Base who dedicate a great deal of his time to mentoring students. He was killed in a car accident in February of 2006.
Craven's family traveled all the way from Pennsylvania to attend the ceremony.
"It gives us comfort and peace to really see the impact that he's done," says Craven's sister, Julie Haralambous. "It still keeps the hope and joy alive in our hearts to see the mentors still being involved with the program."
His father, Robert Craven, says, "He had a special love for children, and you can see it in any photo you see of Scott with a child. You can see the eyes lighting up even more than the smile, and that was really significant."
Besides being used as a classroom, the Scott Craven Café will also serve as a place for mentors to visit and eat lunch with students.

RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - A Black Hills bike trail has earned a spot on an adventure company's top-ten list compiling the perfect paths to ride.
Active travel company Austin-Lehman Adventures gave the Mickelson Trail its number seven position on the list.
The company's European cycling director logged more than 10,000 miles on the seat of a bike to create the list.
The Mickelson Trail received kudos for its blasted hard-rock tunnels and more than 100 converted railroad bridges.
Black Hills Bicycles owner Ian Estes says the honor will bring more recognition to the state and the Black Hills, which provides a beautiful area for riding.

Oktoberfest maybe the most wonderful time of the year. It's certainly one of my favorites, especially now that I can drink beer. Of course, when I reviewed the 25 year old menu from the Oktoberfest tailgate in 1986, a cold shiver went down my spine. In a game not dissimilar to last weeks suck-fest, Penn State played lowly Cincinnati at Beaver Stadium. Surely it would be one quarter and back to the beer. Right? Please?
No. It would not be so. In one of the worst (if not the worst) games I've ever seen the eventual national champs carried a five win Cincinnati team deep into the Fourth Quarter only winning the game on a blocked punt in the end zone. Perhaps there is a lesson to be learned in that.
Also, there is
pie cake. Let's just hope that it's not humble this week.
8 cups peeled, cored then chopped into bite-sized chunks, tart baking apples, such as: Cortland, Granny Smith or Winesap, or a combination of apples, about 2 1/2 pounds of chopped apples
1 cup sliced almonds, lightly toasted and completely cooled
2 cups total sugar, 1 cup for the apples and 1 cup for the batter
1 generous tablespoon ground cinnamon
3 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1 large orange, all of its zest and 1/4 cup of fresh orange juice
2 teaspoons pure orange oil
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
1 cup vegetable oil
1-2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature, and, 4-6 tablespoons flour, for preparing tube pan
Step 1. You must have a tube pan with a removable bottom for this recipe. Don't confuse it with a bundt pan, as removing the cake from a bundt pan is not a pretty sight!
Generously butter the entire inside of the pan, including the center tube. Add the flour. Holding the pan over the sink or trash can, shake, twist and turn the pan until the flour has evenly coated the entire surface, including the center tube. Shake out and discard any excess flour. Set aside.
Step 2. Prep apples as directed, placing in a medium mixing bowl as you work. Add the almonds, 1 cup of sugar and the cinnamon. Using a large rubber spatula, fold the mixture until apples are evenly coated and the sugar is dissolved. Zest and juice the orange.
Step 3. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.Step 4. In a second large mixing bowl, add the eggs, orange juice, orange zest, orange oil, extracts, vegetable oil and the second cup of sugar. On medium high speed of a hand mixer beat until the oil is thoroughly incorporated, about 1 minute.
Step 5. Reduce the mixer speed to low.
Add the flour/baking powder mixture. You can add it gradually, but I just put it all in at once.
Continue to mix on low speed, constantly scraping down the sides of the bowl with the spatula, until the flour is thoroughly incorporated and a thick, spoonable batter has formed, about 1 minute.Step 6. THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! Using a large slotted spoon, remove and place half of the apple mixture in a medium mixing bowl. Take them from the top of the bowl. Allow all of the juices to remain with the rest of the apple mixture in the bottom of the bowl. The apples we just removed are the apples that will go on top of the cake. Set them aside!
Step 7. Using a large spoon, place half of the batter in the bottom of the prepared pan, spreading it around as you go. Give the pan a few firm back and forth shakes to make sure the batter is evenly distributed.
Step 8. Using a large spoon distribute the second half of the apple mixture, the mixture in the big bowl WITH the juices, along WITH all of the juices, over the batter.
Step 9. Spoon and spread the second half of the cake batter over the apple mixture, doing your best to get it evenly distributed.
Step 10. Distribute the remaining half of apples evenly over the top.
Step 11. Bake cake on center rack of preheated 350 degree oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted at several spots comes out clean. This is a very dense, moist cake, so don't worry if it takes another 5-10 minutes to finish baking.The cake will be starting to shrink away from the sides of the pan. Using a sharp knife, completely loosen cake from sides of pan. Holding onto the tube portion of the pan, lift and transfer the cake, on the tube portion of the pan, to a cooling rack to cool completely, about 2 hours
Remove from oven, place on a cooling rack and set aside to cool, in pan for 15-20 minutesUsing a sharp knife, loosen the cake from the bottom of the pan, carefully invert it onto the cooling rack, then invert it again onto a serving plate to slice and serve
As always there are more photos, stories, and information at Kitchen Encounters. Enjoy the game.

Here's a look at what believers say happened when Mary appeared in Assiut, Egypt in 2000 and 2001 in events now known as "Our Lady of Assiut":
Residents of Assiut, Egypt were awakened in the middle of the night on August 17, 2000 by an exceptionally bright light coming from Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox Church. Those who looked toward the church saw an apparition of Mary between the church's two towers, accompanied by large, glowing white doves (a traditional symbol of peace and the Holy Spirit) flying around her.
The apparitions continued to appear on various nights over the next several months, until January 2001. People often gathered outside the church at night to wait to see if an apparition would occur. While they waited, they prayed and sang worship songs.
Mary appeared with a face and figure of brilliant golden and white light. She most often appeared with the white doves flying nearby, and sometimes flashing blue and green lights appeared over the church as well, drawing the attention of people miles away.
Thousands of people witnessed the apparitions, and many recorded them. Some took video that they then posted on the Internet; some took photos that were published in newspapers. While Mary didn't speak during the Assiut apparitions, she did move around as if blessing people in the crowd watching.
People also reported that, during some of the church's worship services, light would emanate from a picture near the altar that showed Mary with a dove above her head, and the light would sometimes flow down out of the picture. Each time afterward, those outside the church would report seeing lights flashing above the church building.
The main miracle associated with Mary's Assiut apparitions is the powerful way it inspired peace between people of faith who had been in conflict with each other in Egypt. Christians and Muslims, who both honor Mary as the mother of Jesus Christ and as an extraordinarily faithful person, had been at odds in Egypt for years, with Muslims often persecuting Christians. After Mary's apparitions in Assiut, relationships between many Egyptians of both faiths were marked by peace rather than hostility, for a while -- just as they improved for a while after Mary's apparitions in Zeitoun, Egypt from 1968 to 1971, which also featured doves flying around the figure of Mary.
The Coptic Orthodox Church declared the apparitions themselves to be miraculous in that they were supernatural events with no natural explanation.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (BP) -- The news hit the airwaves like a sudden onslaught, and the truth began to sink in. It has happened again. This time, 71 people shot while attending the midnight premier of the last in the Batman sequence, "The Dark Knight Rises." According to press reports, a 24-year-old man burst into the crowded theater, wearing a gas mask and carrying an arsenal. After deploying what is believed to be tear gas, he opened fire with a shotgun, a rifle and two handguns. At least 12 people are dead, and dozens are injured, many critically.
More than 100 police officers responded to the scene in Aurora, just a few miles from Columbine High School, where in 1999 two high school students killed 12 fellow students and one teacher in a rampage that also injured 21 other students. That school massacre became a milestone in the nation's legacy of violence. Now, yet another Denver suburb joins that tragic list.
The inevitable media swarm focuses on the data first -- the who, what, when and where questions. Then they, along with the public at large, begin to ask the why question. That is always the hard one.
The same vexing but inescapable question comes every time a Columbine happens or an Anders Behring Breivik attempts to justify his mass homicide. How could such a thing happen? How could a human being do such a thing?
There is no easy answer to this question. The easy answers are never satisfying, and they are often based in the confused moral calculus of popular culture. We assume there must have been a political motivation, a psychiatric disturbance, a sociological pressure anything that will offer a satisfying explanation that will assure us. Wave after wave of analysis is offered, and sometimes some horrifying clues emerge. But the moral madness of mass homicide can never be truly explained.
Christians are driven by instinct to think in biblical and theological terms. But, how should that instinct be guided?
First, Christians know that the human heart is capable of great evil. Human history includes a catalog of human horrors. The 20th century, described by historian Eric Hobsbawm as the century of "megadeath," included a list of names such as Adolf Hitler, Josef Stalin, Pol Pot and Charles Manson. But those murderers did their killing from a distance, at least usually. Those who carry out the murders themselves are even more haunting to us. The young man arrested in this case, 24-year-old James Holmes, looks disarmingly normal.
The Fall released human moral evil into the cosmos, and every single human being is a sinner, tempted by a full range of sinfulness. When someone does something as seemingly unthinkable as this, we often question how anyone could do such a thing. The prophet Jeremiah spoke to this when he lamented, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick, who can understand it?" (Jeremiah 17:9)
Human beings are capable of unspeakable moral evil. We are shocked by such atrocities, but only because we have some distance from the last one. We cannot afford to be shocked when humans commit grotesque moral evil. It tells us the truth about unbridled human sin.
Second, we must be thankful for restraints on moral evil. Christians must not underestimate the potential of any human being -- ourselves included -- to commit moral horror. We know ourselves to be sinners, and we know ourselves to be capable of sins we do not actually commit. Why do we not commit them?
God restrains human sinfulness. If the fullness of human sin was set loose, humanity would destroy itself. God restrains human evil by several means. First, he has created us in His image, and at least part of this image is what we call conscience. The moral conscience is a powerful restraint on human evil, and for this we must be exceedingly thankful. At the same time, the human conscience is also warped by the Fall and no longer fully trustworthy. We have developed the capacity to ignore the conscience, torture the conscience and even misdirect the conscience by moral rationalization. Nevertheless, the restraint of the conscience is fundamental, and for that we must be very thankful.
God has also established institutions and orders that restrain human evil. As the Apostle Paul reminds us in Romans 13, God gave us the institution of government in order to restrain evil and to punish the evildoer. He has also given us the institution of marriage and the family and the larger order of society in order to restrain evil. We are surrounded by a complex of laws and statutes and social expectations and civic associations. All these function to restrain evil.
At the foundation of these restraints is the fear of God, which, even in an increasingly secular society, still retains a more powerful force than is often acknowledged.
Third, we must admit that there will be no fully satisfying answer to these questions in this life. Christians know that God is sovereign, and that nothing is outside of His control. We also know that He allows evil to exist, and human beings to commit moral atrocities. We cannot allow the sovereignty of God to be denied and evil allowed its independent existence. Nor can we deny the reality of evil and the horror of its threat to be lessened. We are reminded that evil can be answered only by a cross.
Theologian Henri Blocher explains this truth vividly in these words: "Evil is conquered as evil because God turns it back upon itself. He makes the supreme crime, the murder of the only righteous person, the very operation that abolishes sin. The maneuver is utterly unprecedented. No more complete victory could be imagined. God responds in the indirect way that is perfectly suited to the ambiguity of evil. He entraps the deceiver in his own wiles. Evil, like a judoist, takes advantage of the power of good, which it perverts; the Lord, like a supreme champion, replies by using the very grip of the opponent."
We must grieve with those who grieve. We must pray for Gospel churches in the Denver area who will be called upon for urgent ministry. We must pray for our nation and communities. And we must pray that God will guard ourselves from evil -- especially our own evil. And we must point to the cross. What other answer can we give?

Couple Syracuse Orange basketball tidbits that may have slipped through the cracks over the past few days to catch up on...
First of all, a hearty congrats to Griffin Hoffmann and Matt Lyde-Cajuste, Syracuse's newest scholarship basketball players. With only ten scholarship players on the roster this season, Boeheim had some wiggle room under the NCAA limit of 13.
You might remember that SU basketball team photo shoot from the other day. You might also remember a mysterious player in navy blue standing in the middle of the photo. You assumed that was Duke transfer Michael Gbinijie and, of course, you assumed WRONG. That was actually Noel Jones, Syracuse's new walk-on. Jones is a 6'6" junior from Halifax, Nova Scotia, helping SU meet it's yearly quota of Canadian players.
When James Southerland was absent from those photos, a bunch of people freaked the F out. Donna Ditota wants you to know that James is still on the team and is working out with his teammates. Occam's Razor, you guys...
Season tickets to the 2012-2013 SU basketball game season are now available. Single game tickets go on sale October 10th.

Before you blast me for not pointing out that the Cubs got to the playoffs the same number of times this decade as the last six, I know that. It is more the emotional factor of how we lost and sometimes who one that made it simply the most emotionally crushing decade for Cubs fans.
2001: 88-74, Finished 3rd in NL Central
The skinny: Cubs do surprisingly well. They had a 6 game lead as late as June 22nd. Fade down the stretch and miss the playoffs.
2002: 67-95, Finished 5th in NL Central
The skinny: OMG they suck. Use three managers. Let Roosevelt Brown hit 231 times.
2003: 88-74, Finished 1st in NL Central
The skinny: Bartman.
2004: 89-73, Finished 3rd in NL Central
The skinny: Cubs look dangerous except for a weakass bullpen. Hendry won't trade Guzman for a closer. The Cubs fade down the stretch capped off by a 5 game losing streak from Step 28 to Oct 2nd. They miss the playoffs by 3 games. The Red Sox win the World Series breaking their long franchise World Series drought.
2005: 79-83, Finished 4th in NL Central
The skinny: Cubs are 6 games above .500 on June 11th. Then they have two 8-game losing streaks. The White Sox win the World Series breaking their long franchise World Series drought.
2006: 66-96, Finished 6th in NL Central
The skinny: Dusty doesn't care about walks so lets Neifi Perez hit 250 times (posts a .610 OPS) Jerry Hairston hit 97 times (posts a .497 OPS) and Ronny Cedeno hit 579 times (post a .610 OPS). Hendry helps by trading Greg Maddux for Cesar Isturis (post a .542 OPS). The Cardinals go down in history as the worst team ever to win a World Series.
2007: 85-77, Finished 1st in NL Central
The skinny: The Cubs scrap their way into the playoffs but get swept out of the first round by the D-backs (a team that gave up more runs then they scored). The Red Sox win again.
2008: 97-64, Finished 1st in NL Central
The skinny: The Cubs finish with the best record in the NL and are considered by many to be the best team in the NL. They are then swept by the Dodgers. The Phillies are World Champions.
2009: 83-78, Finished 2nd in NL Central
The skinny: The Cubs follow up their 97 win season as early favorites to win the Central but barley manage to stay above .500. Milton Bradley. The Cards win the Central. The Yankees win the World Series.
2010: 47-64, 5th place in NL Central (Current Standings)
The skinny: The Cubs are one the worst teams in the NL even though they are only 2 years removed from a 97 win team. Cubs have lost 10 out of the last 11 and should be 20 games under .500 by the end of the week. Either Dusty Baker's Reds or the Cardinals will win the Central.
So there is the last 10 years for the Cubs. It was full of heartache. Lets hope the next decade is less traumatic.

Is this a tech site or a business site?
I've just realised that a large - probably the largest - part of articles, videos, forum posts and comments on the Verge don't discuss things from a technological or user's point of view, but from a business point of view. It's all about what moves specific tech companies make and how these moves might positively of negatively affect their (financial) success.
Which I think is really weird, since the Verge is officially a website that covers "technology, science, art and culture": There's a lot of interesting stuff the Verge publish on science and culture, but on the technology side of things both the authors and the readers community seem to care more about the companies' internal business than about tech from a user's point of view. I wonder how many of those people are actually involved in tech business.
What I'm trying to say is that even though tech business and internal strategies of tech companies can be quite entertaining to speculate about, I think this site and its community should focus on what's really relevant to its readers and their lives: technology. Of course business is an important aspect of that, because it 's what defines the technology we use, so I think that general developments in the tech market should be covered. But questions such as "Should company X partner with company Y?" or "Will product X help company Y increase their sales?", or even more specific questions such as "Should company Z rename their product line for better marketing?" are only relevant to people who are involved in those companies or businesses. There are two kinds of people involved in the Verge website and forums: authors, who are experts in journalism and technology, and readers, who are experts in using technology. And for some reason they all see themselves as product managers in one of the big tech companies.

NTSB Identification: CEN09MA142
Nonscheduled 14 CFR Part 121: Air Carrier operation of Empire Airlines
Accident occurred Tuesday, January 27, 2009 in Lubbock, TX
Aircraft: AEROSPATIALE ALENIA ATR 42-320, registration: N902FX
Injuries: 1 Serious, 1 Minor.
This is preliminary information, subject to change, and may contain errors. Any errors in this report will be corrected when the final report has been completed.
On January 27, 2009, approximately 0437 central standard time, N902FX, an Aerospatiale Alenia ATR-42-320, operating as Empire Airlines flight 8284, sustained substantial damage when it landed short of the runway threshold while executing the Instrument Landing System (ILS) RWY 17R approach at Lubbock Preston Smith International Airport (LBB), Lubbock, Texas. The airplane was registered to Federal Express Corporation, Memphis, Tennessee, and operated by Empire Airlines, Hayden, Idaho. The airline transport pilot rated captain was seriously injured and the commercial rated first officer sustained minor injuries. An instrument flight rules flight plan was filed for the flight that departed Fort Worth Alliance Airport (AFW), Fort Worth, Texas, approximately 0319. Night instrument meteorological conditions prevailed for the supplemental cargo flight operated under 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 121.
A preliminary review of air traffic control communications revealed that the captain contacted the Lubbock Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) at 0422, and reported that they were descending from an altitude of 10,000 feet down to 8,000 feet mean sea level (msl). A controller acknowledged the transmission and then provided the airport's current weather information and a runway breaking-action advisory. In addition, he provided vectors for the ILS 17R approach.
At 0430, the controller instructed the airplane to descend and maintain an altitude of 5,000 feet msl. At 0432, the controller informed the flight crew that the wind had shifted 180 degrees from the north to the south between 5,000 and 6,000 feet msl. The captain responded and added that he also noted a drop in the outside air temperature of 8 degrees and concurred with the controller's observation regarding the wind shift. The controller cleared the airplane for the ILS approach at 0433 and instructed the flight crew to contact Lubbock Control Tower. The captain acknowledged.
At 0434, the captain contacted the control tower and a controller cleared the airplane to land on runway 17R. The captain acknowledged the landing clearance and there were no further communications. Approximately three minutes later an airport maintenance employee contacted the tower and asked "what is that fire there at the end of the runway?" A controller responded, "it's an airplane." The controller had witnessed the accident and had activated the alarm for the airport rescue and fire fighting equipment to respond.
An on-scene examination of the wreckage revealed that the airplane landed short of the runway threshold and collided with the approach lighting system before it skidded off the right side of the runway into the grass. The airplane came to rest on a westerly heading perpendicular to the runway. A post-impact fire consumed a large portion of the fuselage and the right wing.
At 0415, the special weather report at LBB included wind from 350 degrees at 10 knots, visibility 2 miles, light freezing drizzle, mist, ceiling 500 feet overcast, temperature 46 degrees Fahrenheit, dew point 48 degrees Fahrenheit, and a barometric pressure setting of 30.02 inches of Mercury.

Debbie Phelps, mother of record breaking Olympic gold medalist swimmer Michael Phelps, remembers how it was always a pleasure having her three children out of school for holidays, family vacations, or summer breaks, but was also sometimes difficult. These times were often challenging for Michael, who was diagnosed with ADHD at 9. Since he was away from his normally structured school environment, those days and weeks at home where a challenge.
Ms. Phelps explains that it is the inconsistency that often comes along with these breaks that creates such problems. Mornings and bedtimes often get off kilter during vacations. Meal times can become erratic. Activities can go on and on and on until a child is worn out or over stimulated and ready for a more quiet and calm environment. Even good nutrition and healthy eating habits can fly out the door. When a child's regular schedule and daily routines are disrupted, life can become much more difficult.
Luckily, there are ways to put the fun back into vacations. The key is building in a predictable schedule and keeping your child focused and busy to help him manage his ADHD symptoms while on breaks from the normal routine.
Preparation and Planning
This takes preparation and planning and Ms. Phelps -- who in addition to being a famous mom has also worked in the education field for more than three decades -- says that children can be a part of this planning. "I tell this to my teachers, too. Don't say here are the house (class) rules and expectations. Get the students and/or your children to sit down and be a part of the planning." Make it a collaborative process, include your child's ideas and point of view, make modifications together, and come to an agreement on the plan.
Ms. Phelps reminds parents that it is also important to think ahead when traveling. If you will be traveling by air, for example, what is the best time of day for your child to travel? Would first thing in the morning be best for him or her? Is it better to wait until later in the day? And don't forget to plan activities to keep him/her busy on the plane or in the car. Ms. Phelp's suggestion –- goody/activity bags with games, puzzles, pads and pencils or whatever activities would interest and occupy your child during the commute.
Make a Schedule and Predictable Routine
A day of vacation at the beach may involve a simple schedule such as wake up, breakfast, to the beach for swimming, break for lunch, collect shells, swim more, return to hotel for clean up before dinner, etc. You may even want to create a more detailed schedule with your child and other family members. Sit down together with a pad of paper or at the computer and write up the schedule for each day of vacation and include time slots for activities.
Teach Helpful Strategies Along the Way
Parents can also help their child think through what they will need for vacation activities. Provide support while your child makes a list of necessary items –- two swim suits, beach towel, three pair of shorts, three shirts, three pair of underwear, pajamas, toothbrush and tooth paste, etc. –- and give them the responsibility of getting their things packed. For most ADHD children, however, you often just can't give them the responsibility and walk away or you are sure to end up with something left back at home. Use the time to help teach little tips, like making a list and checking items off as they go into the suitcase. Provide oversight and support.
Don't Forget You
Though holidays and vacations are supposed to be times of fun and family, they can also be times of stress and fatigue for any parent. Add to the mix a child with ADHD and feeling overwhelmed can quickly multiply. Be sure to schedule in some downtime for yourself, as well as for your child. Take this time to do something you enjoy –- an activity that helps you relax and rejuvenate and rebound from the hectic vacation activities around you.
Ms. Phelps is a national spokesperson of the ADHD Moms online on Facebook (www.facebook.com/adhdmoms) where she shares her thoughts for better managing the condition in every aspect of a child's life.

My Blazers fandom reached it's zenith last night.
An old favor was called in and our crew got in to see shoot-around. The first player out there, and by far the hardest worker on the team, was Armon Johnson. Bayno had the pads out, and those two were going at it. Bayno doesn't give an inch, but the little he gave AJ was enough. Armon was working on two things: jab-step jumper, and driving...to the right! That right hand is developing well, but still looks a little forced (Bayno was yelling for a foul). From what I saw, AJ is still in the running for PGotF. Next on the floor was Batum.
The kid in me wanted to call my favorite Blazer over for an autograph, but looking close I could see that there was a lot on his mind. I'm sure he had KD's scouting report racing through his head, determined not to get torched and needing to prove himself worthy of his old starting spot (I didn't know he was coming off the bench until intros, but it was obvious something was getting under his skin). He wasn't hitting his 3s, but the elbow jumper was automatic (he buried a couple in the game). After Nico, Roy hit the court.
As diminished as Roy is these days, when he took the floor my heart stopped. Time slowed, staggered, and fell. He was walking towards us. One of my comrades had called him over to sign a basketball. I tried to think of something to say but I had stars in my eyes, so I let my dazed grin to the talking. Know this floks: Brandon Roy is as humble, classy, and genuine as he appears on TV. There's nothing fake about him; I couldn't write a better hero. Seeing him face to face was so thrilling that I hardly noticed when Terry Freaking Porter came walking up to our crew.
My friend Mel, who had organized the whole event, came with a sign that read, "Put Terry In!". They wanted to get it on TV, so Terry came striding over, shook everybody's hand, and got the shot. It was like the life-sized poster from my childhood jumped off the wall, stepped into a suit, and looked me in the eye. I somehow felt as though I'd come full circle, back to the beginning of my lifelong fandom--the years between had never happened. I was a kid again. The rest of shoot-around is a blur: Rudy and Patty clowning around, LMA knocking down jumpers, and the security guards kindly ushering us out of the front row and back to the Heritage Suite.
We took the elevator to the suite, and when the doors hissed open I saw a cheese-eating grin that I know all to well--Mike Rice, in the flesh. All twelve of us tried to pile in the elevator, unaware that it was going the wrong direction. Rice was cornered, but remained unflappable. After a moment of confusion, we filed out of the elevator, but Rice held fast in the corner. I saw my moment and struck. Stabbing my hand at him, I met those glassy eyes, and said, "You're great!". He took my outstretched hand in his (Rice has pretty big mitts), gave it a pump, and said, "Thanks!". Color blurred, I turned away, and Mike Rice floated down into the bowels of the Rose Garden.
Finding our suite, we tucked into the snacks like starved refugees. I felt like Lazarus, freshly back among the living, enjoying the first chicken wrap since his chat with St. Peter. Then came the game, and we know how that went. All I'll say about that is that I'm so proud of this team and it's coaches (but I'd have started Batum over Matthews!). The fourth quarter was as gripping as any I've seen. At about 6 minutes to go, the door to our suite opened, and Bill Shonely walked through it with 4 Blazers Alumni in tow.
I'll be honest, I don't know the era before my time. I was born in 1983, and haven't yet seen any documentaries about the Golden Age. To my shame, I didn't recognize any of the players (my dad told me one of them was Bobby Gross). I sure did recognize The Shonz though. Taking that delicate, ancient palm in mine, I sensed the history of hundreds of games--victories and defeats, heartbreak, heartmake, and heartfakeituntilyoumakeit. I told Bill Shonely it was an honor to meet him, and it truly was.
Bingo-bango-bongo. I didn't sleep a wink.

Memory Leaks/Errors
Problem with memory errors when running nvision on the process scheduler. The problem may be seen during high volume times when multiple nVision reports are being run.
The following information is gathered from the Red Paper out on Customer Connection titled, "nVision in the PeopleSoft Internet Architecture". For more information you can reference that Red Paper. The applicable information from there for this issue is below:
Please check the following information. Please go thru all the documents very carefully and we recommend that an NT Admin perform the following tasks.
1)Apply Microsoft hotfix for the GDI resource leak problem in Windows operating system.
The Report server used for testing nVision reports crashed over a period of time ( 24- 48 hrs), and the problem was due to a GDI resource leak in windows operating system. You may also experince GUI painting issues and the system not responding to mouse events. This is a Microsoft issue and a hot fix is available from Microsoft. Please refer to Microsoft KB article Q826518 for more details.
To get the hotfix, call Microsoft at 1-800-936-4900, select option 3 and request hotfix Q826518. (specify Windows 2000 or XP)
2)Increase the shared section memory heap for running multiple nVision reports on background mode.
When nVision runs in interactive mode (foreground), it runs within the 3 MB of desktop heap and in non-interactive (background) mode it runs within 512 KB of desktop heap. When nVision and Excel run, they use a fair amount of desktop heap space. Programs run in non-interactive mode gets only 512 KB of heap size and this may not be sufficient if you run large number of programs. If there is not enough heap for running nVision reports on the background mode, some reports may not run, hang during the initial stage, and may block other nVision reports.
For running the same reports in foreground and back ground mode, you need to increase the shared section value for the background heap to the same as the foreground value. The shared section heap value used for testing 30 nVision reports and other applications was 3072.(3 MB)
The shared section value needs to be changed in the system registry and users will have to change this value using registry editor. The MS article 126962, explains this in detail and contains instructions for changing the shared section value. http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;126962
A problem incident has been opened in PeopleTools to automate this change and will be addressed in a future release.
The following section explains the registry values for shared section memory.
Windows uses different shared section memory heap for interactive and non interactive programs. The size of the desktop heap allocated for a desktop associated with a window station is stored in the registry, in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystems\Windows
The default values are,
SharedSection=1024KB (common), 3072KB (interactive), 512KB (non-interactive)
· The first SharedSection value (1024 KB) is the shared heap size common to all desktops.
· The second SharedSection value (3072 KB) is the size of the desktop heap for each desktop that is associated with the "interactive" window
· The third SharedSection value, (512 KB ) is the size of the desktop heap for desktops created in noninteractive window stations.
3) Change the Performance Options to optimize performance for Background services.
By changing this setting, the system will assign equal amounts of processor resources to all programs. (Foreground and Background)
To change the value of this entry, in Control Panel, double-click System, click the Advanced tab, click Performance Options, and then, in the Application response section, select either Applications or Background services.
Clicking Applications sets the value of this entry to 100110, and provides for short, variable length processor intervals in which foreground processes get three times as much processor time as do background processes.
Clicking Background services sets the value of this entry to 011000, and provides for longer, fixed-length processor intervals in which foreground processes and background processes get equal processor priority.

MADISON (Press Release) - Elijah Daniels, 57, was committed in Burnett County Circuit Court under
Wisconsin's civil commitment law (Chapter 980, Wis. Stats.) following a
three-day jury trial in Siren. Circuit Court Judge Kelly Thimm
presided over the case.
Chapter 980 of the Wisconsin Statutes relates to the
control, care and treatment of sexually violent persons. Under Wisconsin
law, a person may be subject to a civil commitment when the person has been
convicted of a sexually violent offense, has a mental disorder, and is
dangerous to others because the mental disorder makes it likely he or she will
commit further acts of sexual violence. A civil commitment is defined in
Wisconsin law as commitment to the custody and care of the Department of Health
Services for control, care, and treatment until the person is no longer
considered sexually violent.
According to the DOJ petition, in 1993 Daniels was convicted
in Burnett County of Second Degree Sexual Assault, False Imprisonment and
Battery, and was sentenced to a total of 12 years in prison. Daniels
was to be discharged from the Department of Corrections on August 17,
2010, but was detained at a Department of Health Services facility pending resolution
of the court proceedings.
Assistant Attorney General Donald V. Latorraca represents
the state in this case.

Complaint to immediately suspend nurse's license denied for failure to show the nurse's conduct was a clear and present danger to the public health and safety. State Board of Nursing v. Beard, No. 12-0743 BN (Mo. A.H.C., May 23, 2012), Dandamudi, C. The Board brought this action against Beard under the provisions of § 335.066.8-.10, which provide for an expedited, preliminary hearing to determine whether a nurse's activities constituted a clear and present danger to the public health and safety justifying immediate suspension of Beard's license. The Board alleged that Beard was drug-impaired at work on two occasions (July 2011 and January 2012). In the July 2011 incident, there was evidence of such impairment, and that Beard had a prescription for Ativan. In the January 2012 incident, there was evidence of discrepancies in Beard's nursing notes and medication withdrawal and administration records, and that a quantity of morphine was missing, but no evidence of impairment. Beard was asked to give a urine sample for drug testing, which she did, but the results of the test were not presented at the hearing. DECISION: The Commission denied authority to suspend Beard's license. The Board failed to show clear and present danger. The only evidence of impairment occurred 10 months prior to the hearing, the Board failed to present more than circumstantial evidence of drug impairment for either case, and failed to place Beard's test results into evidence.
Golf course not required to charge sales taxes on cart rentals, even if cost was mandatory, whether cart used or not. PF Golf LLC v. Director of Revenue, No. 10-0477 RS (Mo. A.H.C., May 31, 2012), Dandamudi, C. PF Golf owned a golf course that was very hilly, so most golfers used golf carts, although a few did not. It paid sales tax on its purchase or lease of those carts. PF Golf's policy of separately charging for the cart and the course was not disclosed to customers, and in fact a Department of Revenue employee was told that the cart cost was a mandatory charge. The Director assessed PF Golf for unpaid sales taxes. DECISION: PF Golf is not liable for sales tax. The Commission followed Westwood Country Club v. Director of Revenue, 6 S.W.3d 885 (Mo. banc 1999), in ruling that the situation was governed by § 144.020.1(8) and, having paid sales tax on buying or renting the carts, no further sales tax was due. The decision was buttressed by the Director's Regulation 12 CSR 10-108.700(3) (A) and her Letter Ruling LR 1349. It did not matter whether the cart fees were a mandatory charge.

He has an overview of the Giants' minor leaguers, mentioning several of our prospects. Here's the URL:
The two things that stuck out to me were these:
Organizational Player of the Year: Nick Noonan
It used to be hard to find a position player in this system to tout. Now there are several options. Look for Noonan to start the year in Augusta and end in San Jose to put him on a bit of a fast track as a high schooler with an advanced bat.
Organizational Pitcher of the Year: Kevin Pucetas
The temptation is so great to go with one of the young guns, particularly Tim Alderson, but it will be Pucetas once again proving doubters wrong, winning another ERA title and putting himself firmly on the prospect map.
He chose Noonan over Villalona, Fairley, Bowker, and whoever else we might be secretly hoping for. And even more surprisingly, he mentions Pucetas over Alderson, Sosa, and the other assorted prospects.
So, what you think of his choices? And, if you had to predict today, which two players would you pick for this award?

5 Reasons Why You Should Buy...: Cubannie Links: "The Tupac [Piece] Is One Of The Originals That's Been There Since I Was Figuring It Out."
Tuesday, Aug 21, 2012 1:00AM

From their famed Tupac Rosary to their Super Dulce bracelet, each piece is unique and handmade. If you're looking for the right accessories to rock, check out Annie Basulto's top five reasons to buy Cubannie Links.]
1. Custom-Made
They're handmade by me, Annie Basulto. They're made out of Brooklyn, NY and all of them get special treatment. The first collection was experimental and fun and trying things out. I hardly make any of my [first] pieces now, but I will say that first year that I was trying it out, one of the pieces that cultivated from that was the Tupac Rosary. The Tupac [piece] is one of the originals that's been there since I was figuring it out.
2. Big Things Come In Big Packages
Since it's a trendy, oversized earring, sometimes people get scared of the weight. One thing I've stapled my collection by is it looks heavy, but it's not, so women get to enjoy the jewelry.
3. Cubannie Loves The Kids
We now have a children's collection, so if you have children you can have matchy-matchy pieces with your kids. [It's called] Hijo Hija.
4. From The Carpet To The Corner Store
There's something for everybody. There's something for high school kids to a more mature audience. [And there's] something that fits everyone's style--you can go to work, you can go to the club, you can go to church. You can pick something [from the collection], and it will fit your lifestyle. [If needed], some pieces are red carpet to the corner store!
5. Exclusive Mass Appeal
Buying a product from us is a unique experience. It's one-on-one, [and] all orders are made by me so you will feel the special, one-on-one attention that you don't get in those mass-produced stores.
You decide. Will you purchase the Brooklyn-bred jewelry line?

Quantocks hold the key to long life, says Nether Stowey woman, 108 (From Bridgwater Mercury)

Quantocks hold the key to long life, says Nether Stowey woman, 108
12:40pm Friday 17th August 2012 in Bridgwater Area News
A PENSIONER who lived to 108 attributed the secret of her long life to walking on the Quantocks.
Mary Tyler, from Nether Stowey, passed away peacefully at the Oak Trees Nursing Home earlier this month.
Sarah Reynolds, deputy manager of Oak Trees, said: "Mary had a lot of character. She was deeply religious and close to her God.
"She also loved to sing and read poetry.
"She would sing at the dining room table, just break into song, and all the other residents would join in.
"She had a lot of friends and her family visited her a lot. They were very supportive."
Mary said her long life was down to fresh air and walking her dogs on the Quantocks until late in life.
Mary and her husband, Albert, had two children, who she outlived.
The couple retired to Nether Stowey in 1960 where Mary attended Stogursey Church and the local branch of the Women's Institute.
Albert died in 1987 and Mary lived independently until 106 before eventually moving to Oak Trees.

During the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) convention in Indianapolis Jan. 16-20, Westside United's U12 boys' team was asked to help demonstrate with Mick Priest, Oldham Athletic FC's youth team coach and centre of excellence manager and former Manchester United's academy coach.
Priest ran a session based on a training method that Manchester United uses. Chris Wey, the Westside United's U12 coach, got training in the method last year so he's been implementing it with his players.
"He requested that our boys come in, since they kind of knew the ins and outs of it," Wey said. "They came and ran a great session."
Coaches from all levels and across the world flew into the week-long convention held at the Indianapolis Convention Center.
"There are meetings for college coaches, high school coaches, and all sorts of symposiums, lectures, and the demos which were what my boys were part of," Wey said. "It's kind of like a big networking thing. You're sharing your ideas and things you've seen be successful."
As important as networking is at the convention, learning is just as important.
"Coaches show different sessions that they may run to address parts of the game for different ages and both sides, boys and girls," Wey said.
Wey coaches the U12 boys and is also the director for the U8 and U9 boys' academy. He also won the 2011 Indiana boys travel coach of the year.
While happy with the award, Wey said it came because of those around him.
"It just meant that people are not even noticing the work I'm doing because I get all of this work done with the assistant coaches that I have," Wey said. "Just the work that our club specifically Westside is doing with educating our coaches and putting the proper coaches in the right age group. It wasn't really anything about me, it was more about kudos for our club."

POLL: Should Anderson Silva Retire If He Loses To Chris Weidman At UFC 168?Posted on December 20, 2013, 03:24 PM by Rory Kernaghan
There's not much that Anderson 'The Spider' Silva hasn't done in his 33-5 MMA career. The Brazilian had reigned atop the UFC 185lb. division with relative ease before losing to Chris Weidman at UFC 162.
The inevitable rematch that will go down at UFC 168 will be pivotal in deciding the future of the division, but also in that of Silva's career path.. A second loss to Weidman would settle once and for all that Silva is done, at least in my opinion.
It is always hard to digest when a great fighter like Silva is done, it was much the same for me in the twilight of Fedor Emelianenko's career. He had spent ten years at the top of his game and become a huge fan favorite. When his time came, I did have a hard time accepting it at first.
So what do you think, should Silva hang them up if Weidman is able to beat him again?
- 1. No, He could still go on to win more fights
- 2. Yes, It will prove he is done as a fighter
falcon4917Sharp7Funny | 2Weak | 0Cool | 0
Depends, what if only the judges think he lost in a decision? Or what if he is winning and then his ankle gets broken or something? If Weidman clearly defeats him then maybe he could take a bow but then again what if it's just a style thing and Weidman can't take Vitor? He has accomplished more than anyone so it's really a whatever he wants to do thing in my opinion.
watermelon freshWeak4Funny | 1Sharp | 0Cool | 0
Impossible for a guy like Silva to retire on a loss he will fight against if he loses. I will say that Silva is going to do everything in his power to win and will probably only get stopped if the ref saves him if he does lose.
I am pretty sure Silva is going to win convincingly. Probably his time has come and he needs to walk away.

gm1Sharp1Weak | 1Funny | 0Cool | 0
anderson said in one of the press conferences we were going to see the New Anderson.
I dont think anyone really believes that...
Anderson has his own way of fighting, show boating, dropping his hands, waving his opponent to attack. He will not change....50/50 chance to win against a confident focused Weidman...
TheXperienceSharp6Weak | 1Cool | 1Funny | 0
My comments magically keep disappearing.. hmmm... anyway what i posted hours ago was:
"Silly question... the man is the GOAT! went 16-0 in the UFC and now IF (and its a BIG if) he loses 2 fights, people think he should retire. He's far from done... he didn't slow down one bit, he didn't look rusty or anything remotely close to that. He was Anderson being Anderson, did something stupid and paid for it. There is no reason to even be talking about retirement. "
watermelon freshWeak2Sharp | 1Funny | 0Cool | 0
Not that he should retire, but once a champion loses his dominant ways it's more obvious than a b level or lower ranked fighter. The public at least the fan base of a champ always hopes to see them leave on top ( very rarely happens though) and they don't want to see their champ on a downward spiral. So if he does lose again to Weidman you need to ask yourself would Silva had lost to Weidman 4 years ago? I don't think he would have.... If that's the case and he loses again. I think his camp should convince him to step away from the cage.
TheXperienceSharp2Funny | 0Weak | 0Cool | 0
But that's the thing... he didn't loose his dominant ways... he acted stupid and got caught. I don't know what fight you was watching but Anderson did not look any different from the Anderson 4 years ago. Same man, same skill set, maybe even improved. Same speed... as i said before, 1 fight does not define ones career. Anderson was not outclassed or beat up or in serious danger at any time in the fight. He got caught, plain and simple. He's not a God, he's a man of flesh and blood. Bleeds just like any other and can get hurt like any other and that day was just Weidman's day.
That is what makes this match soooo interesting....so many questions.
1. Did Silva ONLY lose because he was clowning or would have lost anyway?
2. If Weidman beats Silva can Weidman beat the rest of the division? If he loses to Vitor, Jacre or Machida will Silva fight any of those people
3. Is Silva losing to Weidman about Silva losing a step or is Weidman just that good.
4. Silva will have become what Rich Franklin was...does he fight at 205 or does he fight people who he calls friends who fill out the rest of the top 5 (Vitor, Jacre, Machida, Munoz)

Where Are We in the Political Economy of Reform?
AbstractWe review the experiences of developing countries with market-oriented reforms, using the tools of modern political economy. We impose intellectual discipline by requiring that actors behave rationally using available information and that basic economic relationschips such as budget constraints be accounted for. We attempt to integrate two approaches, one based on dynamic games played by interest groups, with one that focus on limited information and the dynamic of learning. We describe the "starting point" as the set of "old" policies and we attempt to explain the dynamics (political, economic and informational) that lead to reform (section II). We analyze strategies for reformers subject to political constraints (section III). We evaluate the aggregate and distributional costs of reforms, emphasizing the importance of looking at the right counterfactuals (section IV). We conclude by pointing to the challenges ahead: the second-stage institutional reforms necessary to take off from underdevelopment.

Customer Reviews
Overall User Rating: Regency Flatware Stainless Steel Dessert Spoon 12/Pack ( 4.9 stars from 16 reviews )
Good quality stainless steel flatware. The dessert spoon is a good size to use as a tablespoon in a place setting. I bought these based on another shoppers review of the tablespoon being more like a serving spoon.
Valerie A. Posted on 05/28/2014
Having a full sized spoon for beverages and desserts was tacky, so I bought these and they are great quality and still shine like new.
Andrea R. Posted on 12/05/2013
I was looking for a flatware set to be used by our growing family -- I was looking for something that is simple so we would not get tired of the design, but at the same time something that would feel substantial (i.e. not cheap). I bought everything -- knives, spoons, forks. We've been using it for almost a year, and after daily usage (and trips through a dishwasher) it still looks and feels as good as it did the day I bought it.
Vitaliy G. Posted on 09/23/2013
I am a mother of six, and was in desperate need of more flatware! I was looking for a box of only spoons because that was always what was in short supply. Whereas a normal tablespoon would be too large, these spoons are the perfect size for my kids to use for cereal and soup. I couldn't be happier with the price, service, and product!
Nikki P. Posted on 06/14/2013
These dessert spoons are great. I always loved having little spoons for tea and coffee. Customers don't like using a full sized spoon for their dessert beverages. I recommend these elegant dessert spoons.
Laura B. Posted on 01/28/2013
This is the size of spoon we think of as a classic tablespooon. The actual tablespoon is large enough to be a serving spoon and is really too large to be used in a place setting. Excellent quality, very heavy, and should last forever.
James W. Posted on 01/22/2013
now i have the whole set, i just love how my table shines with my dessert spoon even after washer after wash, it looks and feels so exspensive. thanks webstaurant
Anita T. from nitas place Posted on 01/16/2013
The whole Regency Flat ware line is Great. It feels very exspensive and looks good with everything. Has a beautiful shine that stays wash after wash.
Sheila M. from Sheila's Homestyle Posted on 12/08/2012
Where else could I find enough different sizes of silverware to set a formal table for a reasonable price? Of course at the WEBstaurant store! I am using these with the Regency dinner fork to put at the top of the plate for a dessert set.
Carrie A. from Carrie Posted on 01/30/2012
I am a home cook, and I highly recommend all the silverware in this series. Since purchasing them, I have been out at restaurants numerous times and noticed the exact same silverware (brand and design). And why not--it's the best deal out there for heavy, attractive silverware that has a neutral enough design to fit any situation.
