While commenting on one of the threads recently, I noticed that a Rumbler had stated that there aren't any QBs or WRs worthy of taking with the 8th overall pick. (There are plenty of posts regarding the QB position. Lets stay away from that in this instance and focus on WRs in this post.) Now I didn't out and out say that I agree with that person but mentally I agreed that there aren't any WRs worth taking with the 8th overall pick. That changed however with a tweet from Josh Liskiewitz that caused me to start looking at some of the WRs from this class.
I would like to introduce you to a couple prospects. One prospect is near and dear to the heart of some of you. He has been mocked to the Bills in the recent past. The player I am referring to is Cordarrelle Patterson. Here is a link to his Wikipedia page that gives you all of his stats, etc. Here are a couple links to some Youtube videos of his games. Cordarrelle Patterson vs FL, Missouri, Vanderbilt, and Georgia. And Cordarrelle Patterson vs Mississippi State.
The other receiver that I would like to introduce to you is DeAndre Hopkins. DeAndre Hopkins is currently mocked by Bucky Brooks and Josh Norris as going late in the 1st round to the Houston Texans with Charles Davis leaving him out of the 1st round entirely. Here are some notable links with regards to DeAndre Hopkins. This link is a Youtube video of DeAndre Hopkins vs five teams in 2012. And this one is a video of the Clemson Bowl game against LSU this year.
My question to you is this Rumblers. Are Cordarrelle Patterson and DeAndre Hopkins being valued correctly and at the appropriate spots? And are there any other WRs that you would prefer that the Bills draft instead? Feel free to suggest WR prospects. There is a poll below. Vote and state your case.

Men's soccer through the preseason battles
With only two games under their belt, the men still have the weekend to prepare for the conference season that is quickly
The men's first preseason game resulted in a tie against Evergreen State, 2-2. Freshman Tyler Repic had both goals against
Evergreen, Sept. 1.
The second game was not as hopeful for the men and resulted in a loss against Northwest Christian, 2-1. Senior Michel Camacho
scored the only goal against Northwest Christian.
"It's still early. We're only two games in and I think we have the right mix of players and it's a matter of a few games until we get it
figured out as a unit," Camacho said.
In addition to a new season, the men's team added a familiar face to the coaching staff. A senior who graduated last year, Travis
Issacs joined the team, not as a player, but as an assistant coach.
"It's tough because I want to play, but I enjoy being a part of the team, and I feel that I have enough knowledge that I can benefit the
team, and the guys respect that so the transition is easy," Issacs said.
As an experienced alum himself, Issacs knows what the players are capable of and what they should expect of themselves.
"I expect them to compete in the top half of the league. They have the parts they need to put them together," Issacs said.
Expectations are high for the men this year as the conference season approaches.
"You always want to aim high for a conference championship, but a top three finish is very possible," Camacho said. "Its going to be
a dog fight and, like the previous years, its going to come down to who can take advantage of the game."
The men's soccer team plays both Sept. 10 and 11 to wrap up the preseason.

Enormous Consequences is a daily look at the most impactful games in the NBA's playoff races.
The Memphis Grizzlies had a critical game against the L.A. Clippers on Saturday...in which they got hammered. The Grizzlies have a critical game against the L.A. Lakers on Sunday (10:30 p.m. ET, ESPN), and given the way this road trip has gone for Memphis and how good the Lakers are at home, it's hard to imagine a different result.
Memphis has dropped three straight and is locked in a three-way tie for No. 6 in the West with Utah and Denver. Houston, which lost to Dallas in another Enormous Consequence game on Saturday, sits a half-game behind at No. 9 in the conference. Houston is inactive, so a Sunday loss for the Grizzlies would drop Memphis into a tie with the Rockets on the edge.
The Lakers seem comfortable at No. 3, a full three games behind No. 2 San Antonio and three games ahead of the Clippers and Mavericks. But there's plenty of time left, and every game remains critical.
Only one other Sunday game features playoff contenders from the same conference facing off, as the Timberwolves -- sitting on the outer edge of contention at 3.5 games out of the No. 8 -- host the Nuggets (3:30 p.m. ET, League Pass), who badly need wins to separate from the Rockets and Suns and keep pace with the Jazz and Grizzlies.
There are three interconference games of Enormous Consequence, none bigger than the Heat at the Thunder (8 p.m. ET, ESPN). The game doesn't have practical standings repercussions, but as a potential Finals preview and a match-up between the league's top two MVP candidates, it's a big deal.
The Sixers, engaged in a fierce battle for seeding in the East, have the good fortune of visiting the Spurs (7 p.m. ET, League Pass) while the Hawks (also fighting for seed) host the Jazz (fighting for a spot, period). That one is slated for 6 p.m. ET on League Pass.

Health Law
Mom uses Kentucky law to force adult daughter into drug treatment
Posted May 29, 2013 12:35 PM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Candice Williamson got treatment for her drug addiction because of a Kentucky law that allowed her mother to petition the court for forced treatment.
Williamson was 18 when her mother walked in to the bathroom and saw Williamson preparing to inject herself with heroin, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports in a story reprinted in USA Today. Williamson's mother, Robin Knott, learned about "Casey's Law" from a friend and petitioned a court to order involuntary treatment.
Kentucky lawmakers passed the law in 2004, dubbed "Casey's Law" for a youth who died of a heroin overdose. Ohio passed a similar law last year. Casey's Law petitions have surged in three northern Kentucky counties, including Kenton County, where Williamson was ordered into treatment, the story says. More than 100 Casey's Law petitions were filed in Kentucky in 2011, and more than half came from those three counties.
The law, modeled after a Florida statute, requires evidence that the subject is a danger to self or others, and it requires a medical evaluation by a physician and another health professional. According to an October article in the New York Times Well blog, more than 20 states permit involuntary addiction treatment, though the requirements vary.
The author of the Well article, physician Paul Christopher, says some states require the subject to be a danger to oneself, others or property; some require impaired decision-making; and some require "something as vague as losing control of oneself." Christopher advocates more research on the efficacy of forced-treatment statutes. "Science must guide the crafting of these laws," he writes, "but for now the empirical jury is decidedly out."

Lodi couple among those to pay settlements for discrimination complaints
More than $2 million in settlements were paid to victims of alleged discrimination in New Jersey last year, including $6,000 to an interracial couple who claimed they were turned away from an apartment rental in Lodi, Division of Civil Rights Director Craig T. Sashihara said Thursday.
The cases resolved last year involved a range of alleged incidents, including a Hudson County public school district accused of failing to accommodate a teachers' aid who used a wheelchair, a fitness club that failed to protect a female employee from sexual harassment, and an orthopedic physician who didn't provide a sign language interpreter for a deaf patient.
In Bergen County, Andre Daniels and Alicia Arnone alleged in a complaint filed with the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, that Carmelo and Rosa Luciano rejected them as tenants in November 2008 because they were an interracial couple, according to a press release by the Division of Civil Rights.
Daniels and Arnone had viewed a one-bedroom apartment being advertised by the Lucianos in Lodi, and subsequently put down a $750 deposit on the dwelling. Six days later, the couple was given its deposit back and advised the apartment had been rented, according to state officials. A subsequent investigation by the Fair Housing Council of Northern New Jersey determined the apartment had been offered to a white male "tester" two days after Daniels and Arnone were told it was rented, according to state officials.
Under a settlement, the Lucianos paid $6,000 to the couple, and $1,500 to the Fair Housing Council, state officials said.
Reached by phone, Rosa Luciano declined comment Thursday.
Besides financial compensation, settlements negotiated typically included required training in the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, creation of anti-discrimination policies and procedures, and regular reporting requirements to ensure compliance with the law.
"The financial terms of the settlements are nice — we're always happy to put money in the pockets of deserving New Jersey residents," said Director Sashihara. "But our main focus is broader — requiring employers, housing providers, places of public accommodation, and others to change their practices and policies so that they comply with state and federal law for the benefit of society as a whole."

Estimates of the Value of Patent Rights in Great Britain and Ireland, 1852-1876
AbstractParameters of the distribution of the value of patent rights in Britain and Ireland for the 1852-76 period are estimated, and compared with similar estimates by Schankerman and Pakes (1986) for the 1950-76 period. Market variables of the earlier period have a low ability, but those of the later period a high ability, to explain fluctuations in the value of patent rights. Aggregate patent rights have more lower-valued patents in the earlier period. In the earlier period there was no trade-off between quantity and 'quality' of patents, but in the later period there was. Aggregate value of patent rights increased relative to gross fixed capital formation, from 1870 to 1970, by approximately 100 percent. A greater amount of R&D effort helps to explain many of the differences found between the two periods. Copyright 1994 by The London School of Economics and Political Science.

A Waco man and woman have been arrested for holding a group of people at gunpoint at a downtown motel Friday night. 29-year-old Edward James Simmons Jr. and 26-year-old Victoria Ann Rodriguez are both facing various charges for an incident at a motel in the 1700 block of Washington Ave.
Authorities say that a female victim had lived with Rodriguez, and was planning on moving out of the motel. According to police, the victim had owed Rodriguez an unspecified amount of money.
When the victim and her friends came to pick up her clothes from the motel, Rodriguez and Simmons were there too. The two suspects are accused of holding them at gunpoint and preventing them from leaving or calling for help.
The incident lasted from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. A female witness came to the room, saw what was happening and left to call police.
When officers arrived, they took Rodriguez and Simmons into custody and recovered two handguns. Both suspects have been charged with unlawful restraint, aggravated assault and interference with an emergency call.
They were both booked into McLennan County Jail.

Pours very dark brown, with a nice beige head forming up. From the look of it, it will be a malty, compact, dense drink.
Smells of roasted malts, dark spices and green and dry grass.
Roasted malts, somewhat sweet with a dark fruitiness background (low raisin, dry figs). Hint of apricot also, and some low citrus (a mild lemon zest that you usually get in a lager also). Yeasts are hard at work, earthy, spicy, woody. A floral note, but a bigger herbal note, with pine, sage, dry cones. Hops are big and clear, and create a hugely intense dry bitterness, enhanced by the roast, really rough. The bitterness and an alcoholic warmth linger for a very long time in the aftertaste, but not in a bad way.
A little fizz, but the beer is mostly creamy, dense and robust.
A great intensity of aromas, beautiful balance between malts, yeasts and hops creating a strong, very "German" bitterness that few beers achieve.

Bottled 6/2013. Best before 6/2014.
Pours a murky orange-brown with a foamy khaki head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Tiny chunks of sediment are seen floating around in the beer after the pour. Smell is of toasted malt, caramel, and biscuit aromas. Taste is much the same with caramel and herbal hop flavors on the finish. There is a medium amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer with a surprising hoppy flavor that I wasn't expecting based on the smell.

A: Fantastic tall and compact beige head fills the glass. After a while the liquid appears as the head starts to dissipate. The color is lovely glowing brown. Nice lacings.
S: Roasted malt, kind of dry. Suttle hoppiness brings fruity notes; ripe oranges and pears as well as dark dried fruits. Sweet.
T: Toasty malt, roasted and bready. Yeast and quite spicy. Rich fruit; follows the smell. Sweet, but also dry. The bitter hops are strong but very well balanced. An metallic back-bone (like in every Altbier I've ever had).
M: Aftertaste is rather long and bitter (cherry kernel-like). Body is so smooth and medium full, while the strong carbonation is very modest and un-aggresive.
O: This is a very well crafted and balanced Altbier - probably the best I've ever had.

Appearance: dark reddish brown (darker than Schumacher), less clarity, foamy white head
Aroma: more pronounced toasty malt character, with subtle noble hop character, dark fruit notes
Taste: toasty malt character, but noticeably more fruit flavor than Schumaher, raisiny-plum dark fruit character, mild bitter finish with noble hop flavor
Mouthfeel: lager like smoothness with biting carbonation, slightly more buttery taste than Schumacher because of increased diacetyl, medium-full body
Overall Impression: A darker, heavier, and more ale like version of the altbier. While this beer exhibits lager like mouthfeel and carbonation, it leans towards an ale in clarity, flavor, and aroma.

Enjoyed this corked bottle out of a large snifter glass.
A: Pours a dark and cloudy brown-amber hue with an off-white, 1-finger, frothy head that quickly dissipates leaving a good trail and wispy lace.
S: Malty aroma with a pine background.
T: Sweet malty followed by some dark fruits and caramel with a somewhat dry spicy finish.
M: Heavy body and medium carbonation.
O: Good overall altbier – not my favorite style but worthy of a try.

Experienced on-cask at Uerige on 4/11/2013 while visiting my good friend Thirstybird. First of three served in a .2l stange. Pours a deep amber with a semi-hazy clarity and a dense, 1.5 inch cream-colored head. Nose is malty with a hint of noble hops. Taste follows nose - the perfect balance of malt and hops with just a kiss of earthiness at the finish. Mouthfeel is medium-light in consistency with a smooth body and a slight bite at the finish. Overall, a very different animal than what is generally available in the bottle. A great session alt.

Caption Diss: Jay-Z Split Between Mark Sanchez & Tim Tebow, Gang Green Mania?
Tuesday, Mar 27, 2012 12:10AM
For Caption Diss, the good ol' folks at SOHH are back at it giving y'all, my loyal doggies, a chance to capture the final word(s). The "Best We've Ever Read" headline gets to hold down that Cap Diss crown for a whole week. Who run it?
SMH. At this point doggies, I've accepted the fact that my New York Jets have become the laughing stock of the NFL. I mean, doggies thought Mark Sanchez was bad? Now we've got Taylor Swift's jump-off Tim Tebow in town? LOL! SMH... All this Gang Green talk has had me thinking about one doggy in particular. Yup. The same doggy from last week. Jay-Z. Doggy was so hard body last year at the 9/11 opening day game at Metlife Stadium, but now who is he rooting for? The flashy Jigga seems like a Sanchez doggy. But the Young Hov we all know loves rocking that Gator band, so Tebowmania, right? I can't call it. What's going on here w/ Jay at Metlife decked out in Jets green? HHmmm....................
SMH @ that doggy they call Gregski86!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!! I won't lie, I CO-SIGN that diss to the fullest. Your Cap Diss may have to go in the Doggy of Fame list. Even though we know it was directed toward Kobe Bryant, it could have gone both ways. Doggies know Jay's gotten some of Rihanna's birthday cake and they stay on the married tip. SMH. Right or wrong, you killed it Greg! Funny stuff! LOL!!!!
Aight doggies, I'm still cracking up over Greg's diss. LOL. All New York Jets fans needed a dose of that. LOL. With that said, it's time to go in. Y'all know how we do. Think 'em, diss 'em, ink 'em and submit 'em into the comments section by Monday, April 2nd!

By MONA NAIR6 News Reporter
SEVIERVILLE (WATE) – Sevierville police are looking for two men they say ripped off a 95-year-old woman. They charged hundreds of dollars to her credit card. They also stole her jewelry and medication.
"They were just nice people wanting to help me, and I was stupid enough to fall for it," explained the elderly Faye Francis, who says she feels like a fool for being so trusting.
Police are hoping surveillance images will lead them to the two men who scammed her.
Francis was at a gas pump at Frank Allen's Market & Grill, having trouble swiping her credit card.
"He asked me if I needed help. I said I don't think so. So he said let me try it. He put the card in, and it worked," Francis said.
Francis says the men were nice, striking up a conversation, and one of the men even gave her a sob story.
"He said 'my wife has had both her breasts removed. She was dying from breast cancer,'" Francis said.
The men managed to get her credit card, pin number and address out of her by offering to shop for a gift card she needed and delivering it to her doorstep.
"I told them everything they wanted to know," Francis said.
"They're looking around constantly to see if they're being observed or watched ," explained Det. Kevin Bush, about the men in the surveillance footage.
Det. Bush is investigating the case. He says they charged hundreds of dollars in gift card purchases for themselves to her credit card, then they went over to her home.
"He said I really like this coffee pot," Francis explained about how, unknown to her, the men combed her house leaving with medication and jewelry.
Investigators have been able to gather some information about the suspects from their video.
"Looking at the vehicle, I think they are in the Pigeon Forge and Sevierville area doing concrete and construction work from time to time," Det. Bush said.
Both police and Francis hope someone recognized the men.
"Those people need to be caught or it could be worse for someone else," Francis said.
Through our interview with her, Francis kept saying how nice these men acted towards her. That's why it's such a shock.
Police say if they ripped off this woman, it's likely they are targeting other victims.
If you recognize the men in the video call Det. Kevin Bush at 865-868-1748.

Everyone always wants to know about ways to save a little money here and there around the house and in their busy lives.
One often overlooked area where it is possible to save a good chunk of change that affects every household is in cleaning around the house. But with just a little creativity, some basic ingredients and some money saving savvy, there are some really great, simple ways you can limit the money you spend on your most basic chores around the house.
To begin with, one thing that will help much and immediately is to take off your shoes before you come in the house. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure (or cleaner!), after all.
If you take off your shoes before entering your house, there will be considerably less dirt and grime that gets tracked inside on the carpets, on the hardwood floor, on the kitchen tile, etc. This means less paper towels, Swiffer pads, cleaning chemicals, vacuum time (and electricity consumption) etc. that will have to go into cleaning that dirt and grime up. You'll be amazed at what a difference this simple step makes over time. If you like wearing shoes in the house have a pair of house slippers or socks ready at the door at all times.
Next, get rid of all the junk that is just taking up space! Stuff that you don't need around the house causes clutter and clutter attracts dirt and pests. Get a Toronto junk removal company to haul away all those excess belongings that don't fit you or your lifestyle anymore, and you'll have to spend less to clean around it!
And finally, use Natural Cleaners. Here is a great list of basic items that are reliably useful in household cleaning and that you probably already have around the house, and what they are used for:
Baking soda can be used as an all-purpose cleaner. It is non-toxic and can clean, deodorize, remove stains, be used to scour and polish items, and more.
Cornstarch can be used to clean carpets and rugs and act as a deodorizer for them afterwards as well. Some people even use it in place of baby powder!
Ketchup, believe it or not, can be used as a great agent to clean copper. Give it a try and see for yourself.
Lemon juice is a natural whitener (that's why some people use it on their hair in the summer). And there's a reason other than pleasant smell that many dish soaps use lemon juice in their ingredients: it also naturally cuts grease and stains, notably on aluminum and porcelain.
Salt can be used as scouring powder.
White vinegar can be multifunctional and extremely useful for whitening, cleaning hard surfaces such as countertops or windows or even shiny metal surfaces, as well as acting as an agent to remove mildew, stains, grease and wax. Some people also swear by vinegar as an ant repellant.
And finally, peanut butter. For those with little ones, peanut butter can be used to get chewing gum out of hair and carpet. Hard to believe, but true!

The speaker suggests that language is an important part of understanding numbers when he questions whether we should say one dozen eggs is or one dozen eggs are.
There are many interesting relationships between numbers and language that we do not necessarily notice. Discuss or research some of the following questions:
The English words fourteen, fifteen, etc. come from the phrases four and ten, five and ten, etc. These are the reverse of the number word patterns for larger numbers, where the tens are mentioned first, then the ones, as in twenty-four. But the words eleven and twelve don't seem to reference the number ten at all. Where did these words come from?
When we read the number 305 aloud in English, we say "three hundred five". Why does the three before the hundred mean multiply by three but the five afterwards means add five? What seems to be the rule for when to multiply the numbers in our English number words and when to add? Does the rule you identify always apply, or does it have exceptions?
In English number language, groups of ten are important. The number words are irregular up to 20, but then a strong pattern takes hold. Describe this pattern.
Not all languages follow the same pattern. In particular French, Japanese and Nepali have some very different patterns from the ones that hold in English. Talk to native speakers of these languages, or read about their number language patterns in books or on the web to identify ways in which each is different from English.
Our base-10 number system depends on making groups of 10, and on partitioning into 10 equal-sized pieces. But it does not have to be this way. The Babylonian society developed a number system based on groups of 60. The Mayans developed a number system based on groups of 20.
At first glance, the Mayan number system appears to be based on groups of 5. Read about the Mayan number system and decide whether you think groups of 5 or of 20 are more important in the system.

AskDZ: What's Your Side Project?
When you're at work coding something that isn't extraordinarily exciting to you, are you thinking about a personal project you'd rather be working on? Do you spend your days fantasizing about quitting your job and working for yourself (we hear that's always a great choice) on something you created yourself?
Maybe you're working on an epic sci-fi RPG that you've been building from the ground up for years, or a new category of database (even less SQL?) that's going to change everything, or, you know, a pretty cool plug-in for PhoneGap. It could be anything.
If you've been working on something you're excited about, we want to hear about it. Leave a comment and tell us about your side project: What is it, and how long have you been working on it, and why is it so exciting?

I have been working on a developer testing toolkit for Java programmers. Since 2006! What can I say, even after almost 8 years, I still enjoy working on it. It's the JMockit project.
Initially, I evaluated the mocking and code coverage tools that were available at the time (you know, EasyMock, jMock, EMMA, Cobertura, etc.). For my requirements, they were not cutting it: perfectly well designed code could not be mocked, or generating code coverage reports was cumbersome and the reports themselves left a lot to be desired. So that's what excited me to develop something new.
Today, the toolkit (including mocking APIs and a code coverage tool) has a decent number of users, and managed to solve most problems reasonably well. I still need to do a lot of work in the coverage tool, though.

I maintain a small Android app called "iDolar", that follows *all* the different dollar prices in Argentina (we have about 5 prices, between official, parallel, black market, government black market, etc).
It has been featured in the biggest national newspaper here as "THE app to follow the dollar price"

I build code generator based on php and java. The real application build based on this generator are financial application. Not yet publish or live but in progress development past 2 years. Still stuck on java part,not satisfied with output of code.
What the generator does
1. take the output of database table with foreign key relationship generate form,back end,front end javascript(jquery). ** include master and detail.
The reason kinda lazy to entertain customer wanted fast prototype application idea. So need the fast way to create application based on table structure.

My side project is a digital jukebox application known as "JukeANator", http://www.jukeanator.com It was how I self-taught myself the Java language/libraries/platform back in 1999 when I jumped ship from Ford doing proprietary development with C/C++ on OS/2
I am still evolving my software to this very day, I've sold close to 150 commercial copies world-wide and many dozens more for non-commercial use and I offer a free version to everyone. It is available as a Java Webstart application on my website:
JukeANator Lite Webstart Version (free)
I cannot express to people how much stronger I am as a Java developer because of the thousands of hours that I have spent on my own software. Not only that, but it has made me a stronger analyst and made me think about things from a higher perspective of supporting a business to make money...

Very occasionally I work on Resty .
A thin layer over HttpUrlConnection which makes it dead simple to consume REST services.
Not a general purpose HTTP client lib, but focused on making REST calls. I know of several other HTTP client libs, but this one is mine.
Here's a simple example:
Resty r = new Resty();
name = r.json("http://ws.geonames.org/postalCodeLookupJSON?postalcode=94117&country=US")
-> San Francisco

My side project is Snippetory . As I'm working on web applications with highly complex rendering, I'm really not happing with template engines. They mix logic and template. So I decided to write my own templating solution. I removed the scripting language and gained the full power of java for the data binding stuff. You can find a simple example of what I'm talking here .

Nearly every high school athlete dreams of the day when they get an opportunity to become a collegiate athlete.
For Danville High standouts Chuckie Robinson and Kristin Verkler those dreams became reality on Wednesday.
Robinson signed his official National Letter of Intent with Southern Miss to play baseball, while Verkler inked her National Letter of Intent to swim at Illinois State.
"It means a lot,'' said Robinson, the 2012 Commercial-News Player of the Year. "I've been playing the game for a long time and this is a dream come true, to be honest.
"This is what I live for is continuing to play baseball.''
And while Robinson dedicated himself to the baseball diamond, Verkler focused her attention to the pool.
"I always told myself that I could swim in college as long as I put in the work,'' Verkler said. "I watched (former Danville standout) Lauren Drennan go through this process. She was a role model to me.
"Watching her go through it made me realize I could do it.''
Robinson admits playing college baseball at Southern Miss is a stepping stone to his ultimate goal of playing professional baseball.
But, his signing on Wednesday was also a time to remember the past.
"I just sat back and thought about it a little bit, I still remember walking into high school as a freshman, and now, I'm getting ready to graduate and I'm moving onto college,'' he said. "Playing college baseball has always been something that was on my mind.
"I knew if I worked hard and gave it everything I had that I could go to school on a scholarship.''
Robinson chose Southern Miss over Alabama-Birmingham, Missouri, Tulane and Vanderbilt.
For Verkler, she chose Illinois State over Eastern Illinois.
"Illinois State fits my needs both academically and athletically,'' she said. "I want to go into teaching and it's a great teaching school.
"On my official visit, I just fit in well with the team and the school.''
This past weekend, Verkler set a pair of school individual records in 100-yard butterfly and 200 individual medley during Saturday's sectional meet in Champaign.
Verkler will be representing the Vikings at the IHSA state meet this weekend.

Fowler powers Rockies past Padres
SAN DIEGO (AP) _ Dexter Fowler's second home run of the game and sixth this season, a solo shot off Huston Street in the ninth inning, snapped a tie and sent the Colorado Rockies to a 7-5 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday night.
Padres slugger Carlos Quentin was in the cleanup spot after appealing an eight-game suspension for his role in a wild fight with the Los Angeles Dodgers the previous night. Quentin, also fined $3,000, went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts.
Todd Helton had three hits for the Rockies, who stopped a three-game slide.
Fowler, who hit a solo shot in the fifth, drove a 1-1 pitch to right-center against Street (0-1). Josh Rutledge followed with his first home run on a 2-2 pitch into the left-field stands.

A Day in the Life
Decided this morning to try something new with the blog. Along with announcements and other information, I will hereby be presenting a series called from now on, very creatively, "A Day in the Life of an Archivist." This is on the off chance that you are interested in what actually goes on behind the scenes at an archives, and because I've heard that one of the code-word professions for CIA operatives is "archivist" because no one knows what it actually means.
Feedback is most welcome.
June 13 (Friday the 13th): We recently got these two donations that I mentioned yesterday, and so this morning I've been going through one of them, seeing what's included and reboxing it for later processing. I'm also doing some preliminary light preservation work, such as dismantling a scrapbook and putting its contents in an acid-free folder. (In case you're interested, I do this because many times, it's not the album itself that has research value, it's the contents, and a folder is much better for preserving the contents than plasticky, sticky pages.)
We have three research appointments for today, and so I'll be doing some work with researchers this afternoon.

WITHEE (WAOW) – The Clark County Sheriff's Department says a 91-year-old Thorpe woman died Monday when the car she was driving pulled out of an intersection and into the path of a pickup truck on state Highway 29.
The crash, which happened at the intersection of County Highway O near Withee, killed Clara Sandel, Capt. James Hirsch said.
The crash happened about 1:30 p.m.
Sandel failed to yield to a pickup truck driven by Evan Warren, 26, of Menomonie, Hirsch said in a statement.
"Evan swerved to try to avoid hitting the vehicle but struck it on the driver side," the investigator said.
Warren was transported to a hospital in Marshfield with non-life-threatening injuries, Hirsch said.
Both drivers wore seatbelts, he said.
It is unclear whether Sandel went through the stop sign at the intersection or failed to see the approaching pickup truck after stopping, Hirsch said.

The Lubbock County Clerk serves a four-year-term and has a salary of $53,000. Doris Ruff is the current County Clerk. She says not many people know what her duties are. In fact, her office once received a call about freezing a ham!
"A typical day for me would be varied in the task," answered Doris. On average, 300 records are filed at the county clerks office on any given month. Anything from criminal misdemeanor, civil and probate court records. "I do know we get lots of calls about license plates and varied other things that do happen at the county but not this office," said Doris.
Doris has spent 38 years in the office, but the last seven of those years, she has managed the entire department as the elected county clerk. "We're also over the trust funds. Military discharges are filed with us," said Doris.
"Do you know what our county clerk does here in town?" asked NC 11. "I have no idea," said one man. "That's all paper work and they do a lot of the services for the county," answered a woman.
Doris says most people know the county clerk keeps records of the real estate deeds in the county, with some of those dating back to the 1800's. Right now, the county clerk is busy trying to transfer those real estate records on an up-to-date imaging system.
She says her job as a clerk is never dull. Doris says the reason why she's not running again is because she wants to spend more time with her family and take more trips.

Hello Everybody,
I realize we already have an OT thread to last us the weekend but I'm currently on my 13th beer in a spur of the moment 30-pack bender because I'm alone for the weekend. Hey, has anybody tried to pee into a toilet without flushing and observe it never overflows, because I have and am. I do have a hypothesis but was curious if any others have witnessed this phenomena and can provide an explanation.
For all of you who scream and shout, do you also tear that sucker down?
For those science PhDs, would you buy a ham and cheese sandwich for somebody who spent nearly 8 years in your lab on their last day?
For the lawyers, what do you think about NYCs largest law firm cutting staff and juniour pardners to concentrate wealth amoung seniour pardners?
If Hoss never takes a starting snap for PSU is he still Hoss?
And how the hell does Cari post the "Only ... Until..." post before it's even morning for my bender post....?

I have run into a similar problem. I originally developed a site using _ss_environment.php on my development server. Now that the site is going live for a client I need to put the specifics of the live server in the _config.php and not use _ss_environment.php any more.
So I put all my config info into the _config.php file like I used to do before I could use _ss_environment.php and all works for the front end. However on the back end I can no longer log in using the admin credentials stored in the database. The login form tells me that the login is incorrect.
When I put Security::setDefaultAdmin('admin','password'); in the _config.php I can login.
My question then is why, once I used the _ss_environment.php does the system not just look in the database for the admin user any more. I commented out the require_once("conf/ConfigureFromEnv.php"); line from _config.php so it would not define any variables.
It is not really a problem since I can set the default admin in the _config.php, but I would rather not expose the login info in a file on the server.

Seventh National Monitoring Conference - Monitoring From the Summit to the Sea
April 25-29, 2010, Denver, CO
Monitoring From the Summit to the Sea focused on the many facets of water quality and water quantity monitoring for improved understanding, protection, and restoration of our natural resources and communities. The conference provides a unique forum for water practitioners from all backgrounds - including governmental organizations, volunteers, academia, watershed and environmental groups and the private sector - to exchange information, develop skills, and foster collaboration and coordination. Presenters showcased new findings on the quality of the Nation's streams and groundwater, and highlighted recent innovations and cutting-edge tools in water-quality monitoring, assessment, and reporting. The location in Denver, Colorado provided a forum to showcase western water monitoring issues.

Gregory McKenna claims that an iPod shuffle that he bought on eBay and an iPod mini he bought from an Apple store were both rigged with receivers through which the Mafia transmitted death threats to him.
The lawsuit says that Apple "conspired with the Mafia and other Defendants to manufacture, distribute, and sell illegally bugged iPods and other electronic equipment to Plaintiff to perpetuate the stalking, extortion, and torture."
McKenna says that in 2008, recordings of mafia members saying "I'm going to kill him," played along with a song on his iPod mini.
Another complaint is the word "herpes" was planted into the song "Still Tippin" by rapper Mike Jones, on the plaintiff's iPod.
McKenna believes other non-Apple things in his life were bugged too, like his bedroom, upstairs bathroom and Toyota Camry. His is also suing St. Louis County Police Department, a local auto mechanic, and "unknown agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation."

Stiff and swollen joints that aren't enough to actually stop anyone from doing anything. I think I'd like to slather myself in old man salve. Arnica? Stop-Pain? Ben-Gay? Aspercreme? Other? And why
Hi, Hammer has a product that has worked for me and couple of others I know. --Ross tissue-rejuvenator
Dit Da Jow Its not really for stiff joints exactly, but I have found it very helpful for sore muscles and bruises ect..
Arniflora Gel is the the best.
Tiger's Balm.
I like biofreeze, worked the best on my knees and back when I was a ice hockey goalie 6 days a week.
Wong To Yick Wood Lock oil. You can get it at just about any Oriental food market or amazon.
Mineral Ice. (Blue menthol gel that's not greazy -- nor does it smell nasty -- like Ben Ghey.)
See your doc and get some diclofenac. Works extremely well.
Ginger oil. www.isisbooks.com has good stuff.
Oooooookkkkayyyy.... u guys ready? U've likely never heard of this stuff BUT... it is THE best NON DRUG anti inflammation topical cream. I have been using it for YEARS and it's amazing. The joints in my fingers swell and feel really funny after climbing hard. Likely pully tendon damage, tendinitis, and scar tissue. I've had years of issues and had to search far and wide for something that would help... You put this stuff on your fingers or wherever and within about 20min your joints will feel new, like you hadn't just trashed them climbing for years... www.topricin.com/ I get the 4oz jar and it last well over a year or two depending on use... It is a bit pricey but it really is AMAZING stuff - I promise! For Skin it's easy - Joshua Tree Climbing Salve - hands down.

A tree in Mandan was struck by lightening during last night storm and when crews came to clean it up they found a surprise.
It was a baby red hawk believed to be only a few months old. And he is here at the zoo now recovering.
The hawk was believed to be injured when the call came in this morning. But the zoo director says it is a little dazed, but doesn't appear to have any injuries."He's probably just maybe 3-4 months old, looks like maybe this year's youngster. So, we guess he hatched out maybe in early June, something like that. I suppose this was his first big storm of his life and so probably just wondering what happened and where he's at," says zoo director Terry Lincoln. Lincoln said he thinks the hawk will be able to be released back into the wild in about a week. It's not the first bird to be brought into the zoo for assistance. He said they get about 60 to 80 wild birds a year.
