Economics and Energy Savings
@ August 20, 2008 5:46 PM in Great REX in Schaumberg Ill... (ME)I agree with your viewpoint Rob. The savings in a properly designed residential system under 4,000 sf or so is relatively small. I spent quite a bit of time talking with Steve Thompson at Wetstock, and I think the stratos and eco are great products. I would love to see them installed them on every job. I'm just not sure how much economic sense they make at this point. However, I can definitely see the advantage of the Stratos in commercial or large residential applications. It really depends on whether the customer wants to spend extra money to save energy. However, more often the question boils down to a balance of efficiency and capital cost, and a 15-58 w/ dP are the answer right now.
Energy Problems
@ August 13, 2008 1:00 PM in Are we pitching the wrong fuel?Transmission losses in power lines can be horrendous. Where does the hydrogen come from? Nuclear-powered electrolysis? What do we do with the nuclear waste? None of us wants it in his backyard. Solving our energy deficit requires us to conserve. This does not just mean more efficient equipment, it means we have to change our lifestyles to use less energy. I look at energy on a hierarchical scale of usefulness. To raise a form of energy to the next level, some energy is consumed (wasted). Electricity is at the top of the heirarchy. It can be used for anything. Unfortunately, it cannot be easily stored and must be created from lower forms of energy. Next would be gases, which are less useful than electricity. I have yet to see a natural gas television. Gases can be stored, though they are still difficult to store in large quantities. Next would be liquid fuels. They are easier to store, but not quite as easy to use or clean burning as gases. Last would be solid fuels. These are easy to acquire and store, but they are dirty and more difficult to use than the other three types. I would argue that we should never use natural gas to generate electricity. Natural gas's best use is as a heating fuel. We are wasting it when we use it to generate electricity. What about biofuels? How much water, petroleum, and other energy types does it take to generate them? One thing is for sure, the net benefit is much smaller than the energy content of the fuel. When choosing a heating fuel, we should be choosing the fuel that is lowest on the heirarchy yet still practical for the application. Oil and gas are currently those fuels. Coal should be used for industrial processes and to generate electricity where the combustion can be closely monitored. Nuclear energy can be part of the mix, but we have to decide what part of the country we are going to make uninhabitable for disposing of the waste. I have noticed that with all the concern about energy prices, very few talk about real energy conservation. We spend our time on the futile search for a miracle energy source. When it comes down to it, the only energy source we have ever had is the sun. To really make a difference, install solar panels to provide the solar fraction you can afford and let the traditional boiler take up the slack. Super-insulate your home. Sure, the payback is decades-long, but it's the only way to truly come to a solution to our energy probelms. They need to lift the cap on the residential solar tax credit. Unfortunately, Congress cannot even agree whether to extend it at all.
Multi-family strategy
@ August 11, 2008 5:45 PM in Navien heating boxesYou might take a look at the Triangle Tube Prestige and the Mini Smart instantaneous HX before going with the heating box and an instantaneous water heater. The price is probably a bit higher, but I would personally prefer to service the Triangle Tube setup over an instantaneous water heater and Heating Box.
@ August 11, 2008 5:26 PM in Children of the 50s and 60s unite!Each generation has their effect on society. The society that existed during the 50's and 60's was created by those children's parents and grandparents. The society that exists now was created by the children of the 50's and 60's. This election cycle is the first where we have what I consider to be a post-baby-boomer presidential candidate, though some count the baby boom as going through 1964 or beyond. I am hopeful that my generation (the children of the 70's and 80's) can unite to begin fixing the damage caused by the egocentrism and hedonism of the children of the 50's and 60's. That is why "change" is the word of the day. It's not just a change from the current administration or the war in Iraq. It's the shift to a new generation. That said, there have been times that I have thought that the 50's and 60's would have been a great time to grow up. From what I know of it, I think the early to mid 20th century was an amazing time to be alive. Today we invent a new internet search engine or a slightly more efficient car. Back then they invented the television, movies, and the Model T. I fail to see how the new search engine can be as exciting.
@ August 1, 2008 4:04 PM in thermostatic heads vs. central thermostatYou can run the GB142 continuous circulation on outdoor reset and let the thermostatic heads do what they are designed to do. Be sure to set the heating curve so that the tenants cannot turn the heat up to 90� and open the windows to cool things off when needed. There are thermostatic heads on every radiator? The only drawback is that heating the upper level better will probably cause the utility bill to increase.
Big Sky Country
@ July 28, 2008 5:53 PM in How's your staycation?Tim, you just missed Evel Knievel Days here in Butte. He was far from a hero or role model, but somehow fitting as someone Butte celebrates.
@ July 22, 2008 1:06 PM in evacuated tubes Vs. Flat plates again url comparsionThe only advantages to evac tubes that I see are ease of installation for small roof-mounted systems and freight savings on smaller systems. Otherwise I agree that flat-plates are the way to go in most situations, particularly when one considers the much higher cost of evac tubes.
Warm Water
@ July 18, 2008 10:52 AM in Steam Heating System for New HouseThe efficiency advantage a hot water system has over a steam system may be somewhat marginal, but as fuel prices are increasing those margins add up. My personal preference is hot water with steel panel radiators controlled by thermostatic radiator valves everywhere except for radiant floors in the kitchen and bathrooms using extruded aluminum heat transfer plates. In my opinion, this system is the best balance of efficiency, comfort, and capital cost. Solar collectors can also be added to a hot water system, not so with a steam system. That's just my take on the issue. I think steam systems have some very cool features and characteristics, but warm water is the way to go now that we have electricity readily available to run low watt circulators.
Heat Loss
@ July 16, 2008 1:53 PM in What more can I do??????????Any way to reduce your heat loss? You already have an excellent heating system. Possibly you could fine tune the reset curve on the Tekmar, but any gains will probably be very minor.
@ July 14, 2008 6:15 PM in This BUDS pour vous !!Unfortunately, the website I found only mentioned the top three.
Googled it...
@ July 14, 2008 4:51 PM in This BUDS pour vous !!The New Largest Top Three American Breweries are: 1. Boston Beer Co. (Sam Adams) - Boston, MA 2. D.G. Yuengling and Son Inc. - Pottsville, PA 3. Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. - Chico, CA Not the big three one would have expected a few years ago.
Sell outs...
@ July 14, 2008 12:57 PM in This BUDS pour vous !!When I first heard about Inbev's offer and Anheuser Busch's refusal, I thought possibly there was an American company that cared about something more than money. I was wrong. They just wanted more money. On a positive note, Highlander Beer is again available from a revived Missoula Brewing Company. Grain Belt is back too. Can Butte Special be far behind? ;-)
Saving Fuel
@ July 10, 2008 12:13 PM in Outdoor reset with tankless coilI agree with Gary and Rob. You will save far more fuel (assuming that is the goal) by installing an indirect water heater than you would with a reset control. When you are installing the indirect, you can plan for a future reset control, such as a Tekmar 260.
@ June 30, 2008 12:21 PM in Heat Exchanger Question - For the engineering folksI was confused about which temperatures geoboy was talking about. There is still no violation of hot to cold, but depending on the parameters of the system, either of the two exiting temperatures could be warmer. I am posting a sketch because describing this in words is confusing.
@ June 12, 2008 1:28 PM in Converting Propane Steam HeatI believe she is under this rate schedule in her area. MDU General Electric Space Heating Rate How about electric radiant ceilings?
Radiant Floor Methods
@ June 12, 2008 10:57 AM in Radiant tubing above or below subfloor?It depends on your criteria. Above floor methods require more labor and materials to install. If you want performance and cost is less of a concern, above-floor Thermofin-U is a good option. Warmboard is a good product also, although it sounds like your project may be beyond the point where Warmboard is still an option. Below floor methods with extruded plates performs nearly as well as above floor methods. The installation goes more quickly and it does not affect your finished floor elevation. This leaves a bare subfloor for installation of your finished flooring. I would encourage the hardwood installers to use fasteners that do not penetrate the subfloor to avoid the possibility of hitting a tube. In general, my preference is below floor Thinfin-C as the best balance of cost and performance.
Free Heat
@ June 11, 2008 5:38 PM in Snow Melt in IcelandOne of the benefits of living on a volcano. ;-)
@ June 11, 2008 11:37 AM in Opinions pleaseSorry about that. There are dangers either way. The choice seems to come down to which safeties you trust more.
@ June 11, 2008 11:27 AM in Opinions pleaseIs this an open system? I assume that if the system has no leaks and an appropriately sized expansion tank it will run for years without problems. The only way this could be a problem is if the system develops a leak, and then there are other problems like water damage, particularly if the makeup water is left on.
Galvanic Corrosion
@ June 11, 2008 11:24 AM in Dialectric or notI haven't seen any issues with iron to copper, but if you are particularly concerned you could use a dielectric nipple instead of a union. The unions tend to leak. Actually, they almost never fail to fail.
@ June 11, 2008 11:07 AM in Opinions pleaseWhy wouldn't this be ok? I prefer that makeup water is shut off on all systems after the initial purge anyway. If the water pressure is dropping, there is a leak that must be repaired.

L.A. deputy on stakeout killed when car hits his vehicle
Raul Gama died on the 20th anniversary of his graduation from the sheriff's academy.
Deputy Raul Gama was parked at Oxnard Street and Rhodes Avenue about 8:55 a.m. when the sport utility vehicle struck his minivan, said Los Angeles Police Department spokesman Kevin Maiberger. The deputy was alone.
Gama, 43, of Chino, was taken to Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, where he was pronounced dead, Maiberger said. The deputy's wife, Sandra, was airlifted by a sheriff's helicopter from the Chino airport to the hospital so that she could be with her husband. The deputy has four children.

Check out our teachers schedule here. https://t.co/BXVfE7wrMw #bikramlestoday
19. Bow Pose
The last of the of spine strengthening series postures works on the entire spine. Lying on the belly, bend the knees, reach back and grab the outside of each foot, two inches below the toes.
Keep the knees and feet as close together as possible and make sure that the wrists have not twisted downwards. If the set up of Bow Pose alone is uncomfortable for you, remember, be patient!
Inhale deeply to simultaneously kick back into the hands, lifting the thighs and upper body off the floor. For more strength, push the hips and pelvis into the floor before lifting the legs up and back.
Release the shoulders back as the torso keeps lifting and roll the body weight forward to balance on the center of the abdomen.
Use inner thigh strength to make sure the knees don't splay out too wide – keep the knees and feet six inches apart. If needed, refrain from kicking the legs up too high.
Hold for 20 seconds, 80-20 breathing. Slowly lower the torso and legs to the floor, Savasana.
- Revitalizes all spinal nerves by increasing circulation to the entire spine
- Strengthens the entire spine, resulting in relief from back aches
- Strengthens abdominal muscles
- Strengthens upper arms, thighs and hips
- Stretches hip flexors and psoas muscle
- Improves digestion
- Massages abdomen – improves functioning of the large and small intestines, liver, kidneys and spleen
- Improves the flexibility of the scapula, latisimus, deltoid and trapezius muscles
- Increases oxygen intake by opening the rib cage, enabling maximum expansion of lungs.

East County wrestlers stood out at the Evergreen 1A subregional wrestling tournament at Hoquiam Square Garden on Friday.
A wrestler from Elma or Montesano took first in half of the weight brackets as 22 wrestlers from the two schools finished in the top four at their weight.
The tournament was changed from a two-day format to a one-day competition due to the possibility of snow on Saturday, but the schedule change didn't seem to phase the East County grapplers.
Montesano qualified nine of its 14 wrestlers that competed Friday, and Elma had 13 wrestlers place in the top four and move on to compete at the regional tournament in Blaine this Saturday.
"Not a bad day," Monte coach Jeff Klinger said. "It is something about this gym. We seem to wrestle really well here. At the Grizzly Invite we did really well and we did well today."
Montesano freshman Austin Cain provided some of the highlights for the Bulldogs with a victory over the No. 2 seed David Molitor of Hoquiam in the semifinals and then defeating the No. 1 seed at 132 pounds, Nanito Sanchez of Forks, in the final. After a scoreless first period, Cain earned an escape early in the second round and went on to beat Sanchez by a score of 5-0.
"If people are looking from the outside, they are going to think that is an upset where (Cain) beat Nanito Sanchez in the finals," Klinger said. "(Cain) was the three seed and he knocked off number two and then number one in the championship. Austin had a pretty special day. He deserves it. He works hard and he wrestled really well."
Montesano had three other champions on Friday in addition to Cain. Freshman Jacob Ellefson enters the regional tournament undefeated after he earned the championship for 113 pounds at the subdistrict tournament with two pins. Sophomore Kylar Prante took home the championship at 160 pounds, and junior Anthony Louthan won the title for 170 pounds.
Elma finished the day with three champions in senior Tanner Sample at 126 pounds, senior Tyson Dick at 145 pounds and senior Brek McGaughy at 220 pounds.
"I'm happy with the performance," Elma coach Jason Dick said. "They wrestled hard and we advanced a guy in every weight class we represented."
One of the most impressive performances for Elma came from Tyson Dick, who earned pins in his first two matches in a combined time of 63 seconds. Even more impressive is that he was sick the days leading up to the tournament and had been throwing up the morning of the competition. In the final at 145 pounds, against Javier Contreras of Forks, Tyson Dick scored eight points in the second period to lead 12-2 when the illness caught up with him and he threw up on the mat. Dick stayed focused and after a brief time to clean up the mat and a chance for the senior to throw up two more times, he finished off the title performance, 16-4.
"Tyson has wrestled ill," Jason Dick said. "He missed school, he was throwing up and I told him go out there and get the matches over with and he had one minute of wrestling in two matches. That showed heart."
Included in the individuals moving on to wrestle next week for Elma are two second-place finishers in Jayden Olson at 120 pounds and Austin Cristelli at 152 pounds. Ryan Mesojednik finished third for Elma at 106 pounds; Jonathan Weiller placed third at 182 pounds and Austin Carrell finished third at 195 pounds. Elma had five wrestlers place fourth in Mario Yanez at 113, Matt Hitchiner at 126, Jacob Nelson at 132, Steven Persell at 160 and James Quimby at 170.
Freshman Tyler Izatt at 106 pounds and Taylor Rupe at 195 each took home second for Montesano, and three Bulldogs finished fourth in Austin Vinson at 120 pounds, Matthew Overbey at 145 pounds and Aavin Howell at 182 pounds.
While both coaches said they were happy with the performance at the subregionaltournament, they were quick to say the key was simply to advance.
"The ultimate goal for the kids right now is advance," Jason Dick said. "What I tell the kids is, 'Give yourself an opportunity to wrestle.' We always have room to improve and I think we are going to be peaking at the right time."

True to its name, the DIY-Feral Child workshop is devised around an imagined feral child, found deep in the Thai Jungle and now being assimilated into human society. Spanning one summer month in the north-east of Bangkok, along the Kwai River, the workshop is a tri-fold effort of design, material experimentation, and film, where twenty student participants will create a fictionalized movie narrative alongside their architectural designs.

Pieters moves into lead in Spain
Girona, Spain (SportsNetwork.com) - Thomas Pieters carded a 3-under 69 on Friday to move into the lead of the Open de Espana.
Pieters finished 36 holes at PGA Golf de Catalunya at 6-under-par 138. Pieters, who is seeking his first career win on the European Tour, had made the cut in just one of his previous eight starts, tying for eighth at the Maybank Malaysian Open.
"I think I'm good enough and it had to show today. I didn't think that 6-under after two days would be leading, but it's a tough course, the rough is really high and the greens are firm enough," said Pieters. It's the first time I'm in first position. I'm happy to be here and excited for tomorrow."
First-round leader Eddie Pepperell managed a 1-under 71 during his second round to fall into a tie for second place with Joost Luiten (69) at 5-under 139.
Alvaro Quiros (67), the 2010 winner, Richard Bland (68) and Richie Ramsay (72) are tied for fifth at 3-under, while Miguel Angel Jimenez (73) and Paul Lawrie (72) shared eighth at minus-2.
Pieters entered the day a stroke behind overnight leader Pepperell, and fell further behind with back-to-back bogeys at the 10th and 11th, his first two holes.
He traded birdies at the 12th and 15th with bogeys at the 13th and 17th to make the turn at 1-under.
He then found his stride during an inward 31 to race to the top of the leaderboard, starting with three straight birdies from the second to move to 4-under.
Another gain at the seventh pulled him even with clubhouse leaders Pepperell and Luiten before Pieters made it two birdies in a row at the eighth to claim the outright lead at 6-under. He parred the ninth to maintain his 1-stroke lead heading into the weekend.
Pepperell had earlier raced out of the gate with consecutive birdies at the 10th and 11th before converting an eagle at the 12th to vault to 8-under.
He found trouble from there, however, as he tripped to a double-bogey 6 at the 14th and dropped another shot at the 18th to turn at 5-under.
After bouncing back with consecutive birdies at the second and third, he posted bogeys at the fourth and eighth to fall back to minus-5.
"It was a great start and I hit some really nice shots early," Pepperell said. "But it was an up and down day for me. I hit some good shots in the early part of the round, but there were also some poor ones."
Luiten also started on the back nine and countered a bogey at the 11th with an eagle at the 12th, moving him to 3-under.
Consecutive birdies at the 14th and 15th jumped him to 5-under, but he gave those shots right back with bogeys at the 16th and 18th. He would par his next six holes before closing his round with birdies at the seventh and ninth to join Pepperell at minus-5.
NOTES: Alastair Forsyth recorded a hole-in-one at the fifth ... Defending champion Raphael Jacquelin carded an even-par 72 on Friday and sits in a tie for 26th place at 1-over-par 145 ... The cut line fell at 4-over-par 148, with 77 players advancing to the weekend.

ALBANY, GA (WALB) - A downturn in the stock market is affecting the price of cotton now ready for harvest in many south Georgia fields.
Prices for the crop have fallen as much as 10 cents per pound in the last six weeks. This year's crop is described as fair. It won't be the bumper crop south Georgia saw the last two years. Cotton that was irrigated did well, but the hot dry summer affected the quality. Harvesting this year has come a little later because of south Georgia's wheat crop.
"This is a late season usually by mid September we're going pretty strong but we got a lot of wheat and a lot of cotton behind that so it's a little bit different this year we're kind of starting off slow but it will probably extend into January because of that," said Floyd Taylor, Doerun Gin Company.
There's still plenty of surplus cotton on the market from the last two years, but the speculation is that will be used up this year with more farmers in the Mississippi Delta choosing to grow soybeans instead of cotton.

Alliance Française blog
Recently launched by the Washington DC chapter of AF, the blog is a francophile's delight. The writing is contributed by AF staff, teachers, and members.
There are movie reviews, discussions about art and music, and posts about the joys of traveling and living in France. There are posts of local interest, but there are also posts that resonate with readers no matter where they live. One of my favorites is this post on the dangers of knowing just enough French to get you in trouble!
So, if you have time, check out this new addition to the blogosphere and let me know what you think.

Album Summary
- Nelson Goerner (Piano)
Notes & Reviews:
A founding member of rock megagroup Deep Purple, Jon Lord has long been a pioneer of rock/classical crossover music. The last movement of this new concerto for piano and orchestra, entitled 'Boom of the Tingling Strings', is fiendishly difficult - Jon describes it in a tongue-in-cheek way as his "revenge on concert pianists", whom he has always envied for their keyboard talents. Former EMI Debut artist Nelson Goerner rises admirably to the occasion, and Lord said Goerner moved him "to tears" at the recording session with his deftness of touch and sensitivity.
EMI Classics are pleased to release two symphonic works by Jon Lord, better known as a founder member of one of the all-time great rock groups, Deep Purple. Lord's new Piano Concerto, 'Boom of the Tingling Strings,' is performed by Nelson Goerner with the Odense Symfoniorkester under conductor Paul Mann, the concerto's dedicatee. Lord's Suite for String Orchestra, entitled 'Disguises,' completes the programme. Parallel to his rock career, Jon Lord has composed music for orchestra for nearly forty years. Sometimes described as 'classical cross-over,' Lord's compositions reflect his many musical enthusiasms, which, in addition to orchestral music and rock, include jazz and folk music. While still a member of the 'band,' Lord's Concerto for Group and Orchestra was recorded by Deep Purple with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under Sir Malcolm Arnold, selling hundreds of thousands of copies worldwide. Since leaving the re-formed Deep Purple in 2002, Jon has focused his attention on composing. EMI have previously released a number of his works to critical acclaim, including Pictured Within and Beyond the Notes. Describing the genesis of his Piano Concerto, Jon Lord said, "Since I started to write music for the orchestra, somewhere in my thoughts had been the urge to write a piano concerto. Not so much in the traditional . sense of a concerto . but more as a vehicle to express my love for the piano, which I began playing aged six. . (The concerto) would not be for me to play . but for concert pianists . for whom I have unbounded respect and admiration. . I also wanted to celebrate my lifelong love affair with the orchestra, which seems to me perhaps the greatest of 'instruments' . and to marry these two loves of mine in music that would sing from my heart to the heart of this wonderful union that is a concerto. . After a few aborted attempts to begin writing while touring the world with a rock band, in 1998 I came across a poem by D.H. Lawrence called simply Piano, and its effect on me was immediate and profound. The 'I' of the poem seemed to be me. I recognised the childhood that Lawrence described, for it seemed to mirror my own, and the idea of using his images to paint pictures from my own experiences was a persuasive one. . I immediately began to jot down ideas. The experience was made more resonant for me by that marvellous phrase "the boom of the tingling strings" and I decided then and there, that would be the title." Former EMI Debut series artist Nelson Goerner, "a player of exalted poetic verve" (Gramophone), is the soloist in Boom of the Tingling Strings. He rises admirably to the technical challenges of the work, particularly the fiendishly difficult last movement and, at the recording sessions, he moved the composer to tears with his deftness of touch and musical sensitivity.
BBC Music Magazine
Lord has probably made a rod for his own back with this extraordinary Durham Concerto (the Avie recording is an essential purchase), but this near-concerto for piano, coupled with an equally attractive suite for strings... is very nearly as good both musically and sonically, reinforcing Lord' position as one of the very few rockers-turned-classicists who actually knows what he's doing.
Gramophone Magazine
Inevitable limitations of time and familiarity give some of the performance an improvised edge but pianist and orchestra sound seriously involved. An impressive achievement, warmly recommended.

Again this week my volume has been lacking but my life has not. I have been working hard on a new business (will discuss further at a later date).
I have also just started working a new job, and getting my body clock accustomed to the new hours is harder and taking a little longer than I thought. this should change again over the next few weeks, and still feel I can reach my set goals for the month.
I am also in talks with a poker coach, so really looking forward to having my game reviewed and ripped apart by someone that can improve my game to bigger and better things.
My little girl has been at school for nearly 2 weeks now and she is dead set loving the hell out of it. From talking with the teachers, I am told she has settled into her new schooling life with ease, and it making new friends at a rate of nots, I'm so very excited for her.
this year has been great for me playing cricket again, we are now at the business end of the season with one round left before semi finals. We are currently in 4th place and weather we finish in the top 4 and get to play semi final cricket or not comes down to this last game. We are playing against a very good side, so we are going to have to improve on our recent performances to beat them. Unfortunately I am not playing this game as I broke my finger in the gale last week.
Lets go the mighty Seagulls we can do it.
This was also a big week for the club, this week marked the 100 year birthday for the club and boy did we celebrate it. there was some great functioned for the club, where old and new players alike got to meet and greet, play with and drink copious amounts of beer with each other.

Lynsay Clutter/Eyewitness News
Indianapolis - A 73-year-old Indianapolis woman survived a horrific crash with minor bumps and bruises. A police pursuit ended with a suspected drunk driver inside her home. It began on US 31 near Southport Road and ended near South Madison and County Line.
Neighbors heard the sounds of a high-speed chase that started at a White Castle on US 31 and Shelby Street after a suspected drunk driver rear-ended a car in the drive-through. During the 20-minute pursuit through Greenwood and Marion County, Gloria Munn, who was sleeping inside her home, didn't hear a thing, unaware of how the chase was about to end.
"The stop sticks were effective. However, the vehicle kept driving on rims, flat tires. He then drove into his housing addition and into this residence," said Captain Craig Stanton, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
Gloria Munn, 73, was asleep in her bed when the car came crashing through her bedroom, trapping her inside.Pinned between the mattress and the wall, it took emergency crews some time to get her out and to the hospital.
"The car went completely through the house and actually knocked bricks about 30 feet off the back side of the opposite side of the bed Mom was in when he hit her," said Randy Munn, her son.
Munn's son says she was treated and released from the hospital Friday morning with no serious injuries. "She's moving very slowly physically. Mentally, she seems to be okay, but she's a little shook up over the whole thing," said Randy Munn. "We're thankful God Spared her. It's been a long couple of years for her and this is just another sign she's okay and we're thankful for that."
The suspect, 31-year-old Benjamin Foreman, went to Wishard, and is expected to recover. He now faces felony charges for drunk driving. Those charges include felony DUI, fleeing from police, driving while suspended and several traffic violations. Foreman has a history of DUI arrests.
Gloria Munn is in good health and staying with her children. She's the widow of Jack Munn, a 32-year veteran of the Marion County Sheriff's Department.

The End of Syria's Five-Star Jihad?
Richard Spencer, Daily Telegraph
The Associated Press
Despite the British jihadis' well-publicised love of pizza and Kit-Kat, well-provided for apparently, it is probably too harsh to say they were only in it for the home comforts, welcome though they might be. As the man in the first video suggests, more troubling is likely to be the actual experience of combat, for which nothing can fully prepare you. With the recent civil war within a civil war – "fitna", in the Arabic he also uses – the aspect of personal disillusionment must be even worse: you come to fight for Allah, and find that the people you are actually killing are fellow Sunni Muslims, whatever ISIS's ideologues say about them being apostates. Now, as their hosts turn on them, there is a visible upset on English-speaking jihadi Twitter. One went so far as objecting...

The book The First Holocaust, Jewish Fund Raising Campaigns with Holocaust Claims During and After World War
One by Don Heddeshemimer is documented with reprints of articles from the New York Times and other Jewish press that claimed that there was a holocaust of the Jews during World War One. For example, see the article by Martin Glynn, the former Mayor of New York, describing a holocaust of six million Jews published in 1919 at
http://codoh.com/library/document/871 Heddesheimer missed the systematic and murderous extermination of six million Jews in 1906, as reported in the New York Times, see http://exposing-the-holocaust-hoax-archive.blogspot.com/2010/01/ny-times-reports-in-1906-that-russias.html
From a review of the book on amazon.com, "I guess they would call it 'Chutzpah', to publicly use the same big lie twice within the span of twenty or so years." Note: Amazon removed the quoted review.
Rabbi Stephen Wise, founder of the American Jewish Congress and assistant to Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, the leader of the Zionist movement in the US, was instrumental in creating the WW I hoax, and led the efforts to resurrect the hoax during WW II.
According to the USHMM website -
"Between 1941 and 1944, Nazi German authorities deported millions of Jews from Germany, from occupied territories, and from
the countries of many of its Axis allies to ghettos and to killing centers, often called extermination camps, where they were murdered in specially developed gassing facilities."
There are now only six alleged 'death camps', four were razed before the end of the war, and two, Auschwitz and Majdanek, are still standing. There are visitors tours at Auschwitz and Majdanek, and they culminate at 'specially developed gassing facilities', or gas chambers. Let's have a look - this is the door to the 'gas chamber' at Auschwitz - Yes, that is a window, and it is unbarred. The door itself is a typical wooden office door, it is not sealed. A visitor recently asked a guide why the prisoners didn't break the window and escape, the guide replied that an armed guard was stationed outside the door. That is, they really expect people to believe that this was a 'gas chamber', and, amazingly, people do. The 'gas chamber' is actually a morgue room in a crematorium.
This is a picture of the 'gas chamber' at Majdanek, and yes, that is an unbarred window.
The Majdanek hoax gas chamber is a fumigation room, where Zyklon, an insecticide used all over Europe to kill lice to prevent the spread of typhus, was used to delouse clothing. A building containing several fumigation rooms still exists at Auschwitz, complete with the special machinery used to generate, distribute, and exhaust the gas produced by Zyklon. These rooms at Auschwitz are never shown to visitors. The fumigation rooms became the 'homicidal gas chambers' of the holohoax.
For the complete story and a video tour of Auschwitz, including the hoax gas chamber, see http://www.vho.org/GB/c/DC/gcgvcole.html
The hoax gas chambers at Auschwitz and Majdanek are the only 'gas chambers' in existence.
Dr. Charles Larson headed a team of forensic pathologists sent into the camps at the end of the war to document war crimes. They conducted hundreds of autopsies at more than twenty camps, they did not find a single body showing signs of gas poisioning. None have been found since, at any camp.
The photos that you have seen, presented as evidence of the holocaust, were taken at the end of the war by British and US troops at Belsen and other western camps, not 'death camps' like Auschwitz and Majdanek, and the prisoners were not killed by the Nazis but died of disease.
Belsen was a concentration camp in Germany. Near the end of the war as the Soviet troops approached the camps in the east, including Auschwitz, prisoners were transferred to camps in the west. At Belsen there was overcrowding, the facilities broke down, there was inadequate food, supplies, and medicine, and there was a resulting typhus epidemic that killed 35,000 people, for a recent report see http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2006-11-19-holocaust-papers_x.htm
Everyone has seen the photos of Belsen typhus victims presented as holocaust gassing victims, and everyone suppresses the obvious truth, that the prisoners had not been gassed, they were emaciated and had died of disease. Watch the first minute of the televised visit of Oprah Winfrey and Elie Wiesel to Auschwitz http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KugVjbq6Si8. Auschwitz is the main hoax 'death camp' where 10,000 Jews were supposedly gassed daily! The show begins with Oprah at the gates of Auschwitz, but at 58 seconds in the scene shifts to video of bodies being bulldozed into mass graves as Oprah intones "Evil has a name, the holocaust. A systematic mass murder, meticulously planned and executed by Nazi Germany that brutally wiped millions of people off the face of the earth. More than six million of those human beings were Jewish." But the video is not of prisoners gassed at Auschwitz during the war, it was taken by British/US troops at Belsen after the war ended and shows prisoners who had died in the tyhpus epidemic. This false evidence is the basis of the holocaust hoax.
Not all of the prisoners died but you have never seen pictures of the ones who didn't, like those in the photo. A documentary movie made was made by the British, directed by Alfred Hitchcock no less, with footage shot when they entered Belsen, it is the source of the photo. The movie was shelved for 50 years but can now be seen here http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/camp/ . A comprehensive collection of photos can be seen at http://www.bergenbelsen.co.uk/pages/Database/SurvivorsPhotos.asp?index=0 .
Josef Kramer was the commandant at Belsen, and captured documents show that he did everything he could to prevent the catastrophe that engulfed the camp. He was tried and hanged at the end of the war. The letter he wrote to the camp administration requesting more food, medicine, supplies, etc., can be seen here http://www.fpp.co.uk/Auschwitz/Belsen/Kramer010345.html .
His case is eerily similar to that of Captain Henry Wirz, who headed the Andersonville prison at the end of the US Civil War. Wirz was also tried and hanged. To read an account of his hoax trial, see http://www.holohoax101.org/wirz/. Wirz's trial was the first 'war crimes' trial and is often cited as the precedent for Nuremberg. Remarkably, (or not), Wirz is still portrayed as a 'war criminal' in the US media.
The Nazis kept meticulous records in the camps, including death certificates for every prisoner that died, and 'Death Books' summarizing the deaths. The Soviets captured the Auschwitz records but hid them for 45 years. A stone plaque was placed at the Auschwitz entrance stating that 4 million had died there.
In the early 90's the Russians released the documents. Samples, and a summary analysis, can be seen here
http://www.holohoax101.org/auschwitzmuseum/. The data shows that more Roman Catholics died at Auschwitz than Jews. The old stone plaque stating that four million had died was replaced by the plaque shown to the left claiming that one and a half million had died. The new number was not documented; based on the documents the figure should be on the order of (some months are missing) one hundred thousand.
Remarkably, (or not), the six million total for Jewish victims of the holocaust was not affected.
The documents captured by the British and US forces, over sixty million documents, have been kept secret to all accept the holohoax 'authorities' at Bad Arolsen to this day.
The holohoax is based on lies told by the 'survivors'.
The three most famous holocaust survivors, Elie Wiesel, Otto Frank, and Primo Levi, have something in common - when the Soviet army approached Auschwitz, they were all in camp hospitals, there were several, the main Auschwitz hospital is shown to the left. Elie Wiesel was being treated for an infected foot. The Nazis gave him the option of waiting to be liberated by the Soviets, or evacuating to the west. Wiesel, with his father, chose to leave with the Nazis. This is related in his book Night describing his year at Auschwitz. There is not a single mention of gas chambers in the book.
Anne Frank and Otto Frank, her father, were first taken to Auschwitz. They were there when the Soviets approached. Otto had contracted tyhpus and was in the camp hospital, and was liberated by the Soviets. Anne was transferred west where she died of typhus in the epidemic at Belsen.
Primo Levi was also in the Auschwitz hospital and was liberated by the Soviets.
Abraham Bomba describes how barbers at Treblinka gave haircuts to roomfuls of naked women in the gas chambers, including their wives, sisters, and mothers, just before their executions in the very same room. He was featured in the movie Shoah documenting the holocaust. His absurd 'testimony' can be seen at http://www.myspace.com/video/one-third-of-the-holocaust/episode-7-abraham-bomba/43945795, episode 7. This is a must see.
Yehuda Bauer, Director of Research at Yad Vashem writes in the introduction to survivor Filip Mueller's book Eyewitness Auschwitz: Three Years in the Gas Chambers "This is a unique document indeed, it is the testimony of the only man who saw the Jewish people die and lived to tell what he saw." Mueller begins in the morning, "where some 500 prisoners had lined up in rows of 10 so that they might enjoy their Sunday rest according to established Auschwitz tradition." The kapo then barks orders to the prisoners to take off and replace their caps. Those not fast enough are bludgeoned to death. One new prisoner speaks up, "I'm sure the people in charge know nothing whatever about this. I protest." He is bludgeoned to death. "As a result of this mornings sporting activities, thirty-five bludgeoned bodies now lay in the yard of Block 11. However our harassment was by no means at an end. Although by now we were exhausted we stood in line behind wooden tea vats. The tea should have been served early in the morning and was now STONE COLD." All you have to do to realize the holohoax is pure phantasmagoria is to read actual 'testimony' of the only man who saw the Jewish people die and lived to tell what he saw.
None of the defendants at Nuremberg admitted to any part of the holocaust or any direct knowledge of the
holocaust, and only one, Ernst Kaltenbrunner, head of the Reich Security Main Office, was charged with having an operational role in the killing of Jews. He testified as follows:
DR. KAUFFMANN: What attitude did you adopt when you heard about it?
KALTENBRUNNER: I had no knowledge of Hitler's order to Heydrich regarding the final solution of the Jewish problem at the time I took up my office. In the summer of 1943 I gathered from the foreign press and through the enemy radio...
That is, he testified that he had no direct part in the holocaust, and only learned of it via the foreign press and enemy radio. See the testimony here http://avalon.law.yale.edu/imt/04-11-46.asp
Kaltenbrunner also testified
COL. BROOKHART: Witness after witness, by testimony and affidavit, has said that the gas chamber killings were done on general or specific orders of Kaltenbrunner.
KALTENBRUNNER: Show me one of those men or any of those orders. It is utterly impossible.
COL. BROOKHART: Practically all of the orders came through Kaltenbrunner.
KALTENBRUNNER: Entirely impossible.
The only man charged at Nuremberg with participation in the holocaust did not plead that he was "Following orders', he testified that it was "Entirely impossible".
The holohoax brainwashing got into full swing immediately at the end of WW II. Within a week of the capture of Buchenwald, the famous Hollywood director Billy Wilder was in the camp making a film of propaganda lies that still circulate to this day. An inadvertent picture of Wilder on the set at Buchenwald is shown to the left. The film, complete with props, claimed that the Nazis made soap from the fat of (Jewish only of course) prisoners, made lampshades from the skin of prisoners, and shrunk the heads of prisoners like in the Amazon. Even the holohoax establishment now admits these were all lies. See http://www.onethirdoftheholocaust.com/Buchenwald/
The Nazis investigated any suspected crimes in the camps, and these investigations were headed by Judge Konrad Morgen. In the course of investigating Karl Koch, the commandant at Buchenwald, for the charge of having three prisoneres killed, he also investigated reports of the 'irregularities' like the ones listed above and found them to be unfounded. Koch, on the other hand, was found guilty and hanged. Morgen was tortured at Nuremberg to confirm the reports of irregularites at Buchenwald but refused. See http://www.holocaustresearchproject.org/trials/konradmorgen.html
The Jews are making every effort to brainwash the US public to believe the holohoax, and holohoax education is now mandated in many states, starting in KINDERGARTEN, and continuing through all grades. The cover of the Florida manual for holohoax education for K-3 students is shown to the left.

Beckie Wach, the DFW Salvation Army Commander, allows outright Abuse of the Salvation Army Residents at 1855 E. Lancaster Avenue in Fort Worth, TX. You will be REMINDED DAILY you are Homeless and TRASH. The Security Guards are extremely Agressive and daily they use THREATS, PHYSICAL INTIMIDATION and VERBAL ABUSE at the patrons, especially DERRICK, the big, black bald security guard. [continued below]....
Might I add that Derrick disproportionately targets the BLACK WOMEN in the shelter to physically intimidate and threaten. If he did this to white women he would be OUT OF THERE. But he is allowed to use his anger issues with WOMEN to get his highs out of abusing the shelter residents.
Every other word out of his mouth is BARRED. You will be BARRED for looking the wrong way at him or for not looking at him at all.
There is no one to complain to as security reminds people they are helpless and homeless and TRASH. Even though Security is just a few paychecks (or honestly maybe ONE PAYCHECK) away from being in the same predicament.
I believe that no matter one's station in life, everyone is afforded some amount of RESPECT. However, the Security at the Salvation Army Mabee Center, under the direction of Beckie Wach, suffers from the King's Complex, meaning they believe they are above IMPUNITY by abusing shelter residents.
I hesitated to type this complaint, because after all the place is a shelter which helps the less fortunate but then I thought about it. They draw GOOD SALARIES from the DONATIONS OF GOOD WILLERS who believe that shelter residents are being TREATED WITH RESPECT and not TREATED LIKE DOGS.
The overnight shelter residents are handed two sheets to sleep and then the temperature is dropped down to 20 degrees. FREEZING COLD. And these people are sleeping under thin sheets.
They are then instructed to wash and dry with one of the sheets as there are no towels EVER given out. Imagine using the sheet you JUST SLEPT ON to Wash off and dry with! while it scrubs the floor and gets dirty.
There is no non smoking areas at the shelter and people with Asthma and COPD, even "CHILDREN" are told if they don't like being around the CONSTANT cigarette smoke to HIT THE ROAD AND LEAVE. Smokers, evidently take PRECENDENCE. There is only one place to stand which is in the open rotunda which is a corridor which TRAPS ALL THE CIGARETTE SMOKE. And the place everyday is filled overwelmingly with CHAIN SMOKERS. No matter which way you stand you will get a face full of SMOKE. If you don't like Security will tell you to LEAVE.
No place is Perfect of that I am aware, but the Agression and Abuse by Security Guards, especially DERRICK, that motivated this complaint should NOT BE TOLERATED. As I stated, if this guy crossed the line with white person he would be kicked OUT. But as long as he does it to the downtrodden blacks who are in there NOTHING HAPPENS.

Family of April Jones bid an emotional farewell
The family of April Jones bid an emotional farewell to the five-year-old today, almost a year since the first anniversary of her murder.
Locals in her hometown of Machynlleth in Wales gathered to share in their grief, with mourners coming to a standstill or following behind the little white coffin as it was carried through the streets in a horse-drawn hearse.
The rural town was adorned with the five-year-old's favourite colour, with pink ribbons hung from railings, shop windows and lampposts.
They were adopted as a symbol of hope that April would return home safe, but now serve as a sign of support to her family and a sign that people have not forgotten her.
ITV News' Dan Rivers reports.
The cortege began its journey from April's home on the Bryn-y-Gog estate, from where she was snatched by murderer Mark Bridger, and made the one mile journey to St Peter's Church.
April's mother, Coral, sobbed audibly in grief as she walked slowly into the funeral service, preceded by her daughter's coffin.
She was accompanied to the front of the church by April's father, Paul, and siblings Jazmin and Harley.
As they arrived, a poignant montage of images of April played on a 50inch flat screen TV taken from the family's own album of photographs.
The images, put together as part of a GCSE school project by Jazmin, played to the strains of Read All About It by Emeli Sande and Professor Green.
The Reverend Kathleen Rogers opened the emotional service with a moving tribute to April.
We know that there are no words we can say at this moment to express what we are feeling. No words can alleviate our sorrow or take away our pain."
We have come together to remember April in the presence of God. We have come to celebrate her short life and grieve together, to say goodbye.
It's a bittersweet moment. Our hopes and dreams have changed because April has been taken from us.
But you know, we come also with a sense of thanksgiving for the many ways that April touched our lives and those with whom she came into contact.
For a five-year-old she touched a great many lives ... for Paul, Coral, Jazmin and Harley, April was and is extra special.
But she touched us all and we think and feel differently because of the difference she made to us.
Today, here in this place, she is linking us all together in grief. Yet, grief goes hand in hand with love.
In whatever way we express our grief, it shows our love for April.
And surely that is the most important thing for any human being of whatever age, simply to be loved.
The service included Psalm 23: The Lord Is My Shepherd, and hymns including Memories Sad And Beautiful, and a Welsh hymn.
A poignant poem inspired by the devastating abduction of April was read out by Sian Calban, a teacher at the primary school she attended.
Written by local man Jim Marshall and called simply April, it began:
On this beautiful sunlit autumn day, A desperate sadness casts long shadows, across our anxious and questioning world.
Time and mischance have conspired, To inflict the cruellest of evil fates, on an innocent and trusting infant.
A second poem, by the same author, and called An Autumn Night, was read out by church warden Joyce Price.
No family member spoke during the service, which was organised only after the conclusion of an inquest, 10 days after which April's remains were released.
But a short message from the family printed on the back of the order of service said:
Paul, Coral, Jazmin and Harley would like to say a big thank you to everyone for their overwhelming kindness, sympathy and support during this sad, sad time.
The brief message was flanked by a drawing of three sunflowers held together by a bright pink bow.
Pink was widely worn by the hundreds of mourners both in and outside the church.
Floral tributes were placed at the entrance of the church by well-wishers, carrying heartfelt messages of sympathy for April and her family.
After the service, the funeral party left the church for a private burial.
Ms Rogers reminded mourners at the service that donations were being accepted to sponsor an African child.
April's family announced yesterday that money raised at the service and beyond would be used to pay for a five-year-old Ugandan schoolgirl's education.

I was about to say its the best thing he's done since CREMASTER 3, but then I remembered that C3 was garbage, so let's just call it "the best thing he's done." I think it's his collaboration with McKeon that really helped pull this together.

I like the snake's single, piercing red eye, and the way that it curves to form the "S" in "Snakes on a Plane." This is some fine work, Matthew Barney. Fine work indeed.

Actors and auteurs, critics and programmers gathered for Telluride's annual group photo yesterday outside the Sheridan Opera House, but Alexander Payne nearly missed his call time for the photo. He rushed over right after the rousing Saturday morning screening of his latest, "The Descendants," joining Lynne Ramsay right up front nearly George Clooney and Tilda Swinton as official photographers and local fans alike snapped shots on cameras and cell phones. "The Descendants" played big in Telluride yesterday, stirring a lenghty standing ovation. More on that movie soon.

Eugene, now here's a big wanker......Sundance thieves, scammers, corrupt, from all of their programmers, to the board of directors, they steal money by hiring college students to watch the 10,000 film submissions, while the programmers fly around the world picking up films from other festivals, they scam people using Without a Box another corrupt on-line scam, which has over 7000 festivals, some are not even existent or legit, they also ask for fees, all of this film festival noise is nothing but a big scam on vanity driven artists, who make crap films. When a true original no budget, no camera crew, film called Jesus of Malibu was requesting to be considered and simply wanted to understand how a "film trilogy" could be submitted to Sundance, their only answer was " we aren't interested" and the media press, and marketing concepts for the film was stolen and used for Kevin Smiths piece of crap Red State. Sundance uses ideas, steals scripts, spends money on excess parties, the people who attend are pathetic rich snobs who are more interested in catching a glimpse of Paris Hilton than supporting films. John Copper is a fraud, and so are the rest who don't stand up for anything, because they are fear mongering talentless people who fear their meaningless jobs, Sundance does not support Independent Filmmaking, because if they knew what a "true meaningful, and profound film Jesus of Malibu is, which is obvious by the film trailers and support it has received from artist, musicians, designers, Nationally and Internationally; then they would have reached out and someone would have apologized and fired John Cooper who has driven Sundance into the ground, they are corrupt and we will see that everyone will know this, and that the film JESUS OF MALIBU was never submitted, it was never given the chance, not one person called, wrote, e-mailed, to answer a simple question, they want your money and thats all, and THEY DON'T WATCH THE FILMS, PERIOD! Anyone supporting this corrupt Institute that CLOSES THE DOOR, on any real independent film, is also a part of the "problem" and they also are a worthless vanity driven pathetic " I want a trophy" sheeple, Jesus of Malibu is the most powerful film in the world because It doesn't give a crap what anyone thinks, you can all go fuck yourselves, you, the world, the media, the arts, film sites, magazines, film schools, writers, indy directors, are nothing but a bunch of phony nothings, that won't change a thing in the world or humanity, we have a purpose, a message and profound meaning, and you fear us, and are chicken shit nothings who can't confront Jesus of Malibu because 'truth" gets right in your face doesn't it?
Where is ONE of you? ONE? Hello? Didn't think so, not one of you has any balls, any integrity, any virtue, and character, heres Jesus of Malibu's character, and not a phony ass Tarantino one, "the world is full of lies, and you the people are included, liars, thieves, we are "original" because we say, fuck you, fuck you all".
Jesus of Malibu stands for Integrity, Ballance, Respect, Virtue, Simplicity, and Justice it's not just a simple trite scripted manufactured "blue print" of everything that has been done before, and it is true honest and real in it's vision" to uncover the LIES and seek justice, not through teachings, religion, but common sense, Let your pigs wallow in the mire, you don't deserve Jesus of Malibu, but you deserve what your getting, EXSPOSED, so fuck you, everyone of you.

The Chowchilla Kidnapping
During the hours that their captives had been underground, the three kidnappers had not been inactive. The next step of their plan was to demand a $5 million ransom, which they would quickly pick up and then return the captives within 24 hours of the abduction.
The Chronicle reported, however, that every time the trio tried to call in their ransom demand to the Chowchilla police department, they had been unable to get through — no doubt because of the flood of calls from reporters, law enforcement agencies, tipsters and cranks.
After hours of attempting to take the next step of their "perfect crime," the three split up and slept. When they awoke on the 17th, and before they could meet up again, the media was reporting the news that the hostages had safely escaped.
In the months of preparation (the moving van had actually been buried in December of 1975), the trio had never considered that the captives would escape, and subsequently not much care had been taken to disassociate themselves from the Livermore quarry or the moving van, neither of which was ever supposed to be discovered.
In reality, as one of the defense lawyers later told The Chronicle, the trio's plan "would make a great...comedy because nothing went right."
In a panic, the three young men scrambled to come up with ways to avoid association with the crime but decided instead to make a run for it. Fred and Jim loaded up a car and headed north. Rick decided to return home and confess everything to his parents, who were shocked by their son's story and were at a loss as to what to do next.
When the key investigators of various law enforcement agencies met up for the first time, they tried to piece together the sometimes wildly varying testimony obtained from Ed and the children into a single story. At the core, however, all of the statements told of their school bus being stopped by three men, being herded into two vans, driven around for indeterminate long time, unloaded one at a time, asked their name and age, and then put down into the shaft into the buried van.
The crime scene investigation centered, naturally, around the buried van and the quarry where it had been hidden. The van was eventually brought up out of the ground and it was scoured for clues, although much of the evidence found related to the captives and not to the kidnappers.
The buried van and its location provided the first key clues. Never believing it would be discovered, Fred had purchased the old moving van using his own name, and the fact that his father was the owner of the quarry pointed directly towards his involvement.
Suspicion against him magnified greatly when investigators contacted Fred's parents and discovered that Fred was missing from the family home. Asking around at likely places where he could have gone, it was discovered that his friend Jim was also missing.
The investigation quickly uncovered more facts that pointed towards Fred and Jim's (and possibly Rick's) involvement: there had been at least one witness to the trio's burial of the moving van, while under hypnosis Ed was able to recall many more significant details of the episode, and a draft of the crime's plan was found on a handwritten note in Fred's home.
Law enforcement put a tight watch on Rick and puzzled over the big question: Where were Fred and Jim?

Ultimately the players compromised and gave both equal love, though it was probably pitcher Dillon Curtis who deserved the most after West's dramatic 6-5 victory over visiting Asheville in the second round of the 3-A state playoffs.
With two outs and the bases loaded in the bottom of the eighth, the Cougars and reliever Devin Mangum were one pitch away from escaping before a hanging curve dropped gently against Dolan to force Edwards in and bring the rest of the Falcons pouring from the dugout in different directions. Dolan was more than a bystander, however – after falling behind 0-2 he fouled off two pitches to draw even in the count before he was hit.
"I knew immediately the game was over," Dolan said. "I widened myself and I said to myself anything near the strike zone, just pepper it. …. I was going to put it in play no matter what."
The eighth inning was wild from the start, with West miraculously escaping a jam of its own in the top half. Curtis, who retired the first 10 batters he faced after entering the game in relief of Brandon Bloomfield to start the fifth, struck out Miles Moore to start the frame before Jake Reed's sharp single gave Asheville its first baserunner since Mangum reached on an error in the fourth.
Brendan Smith followed with a bloop hit over first to put runners at the corners, but pinch runner Langston Haden was tagged out by Dolan trying to score on Sam Weidie's grounder to Bloomfield at first for the second out. Out No. 3 came when Dolan faked as if he were going to attempt to throw Weidie out stealing second but instead picked Smith off third.
Curtis notched his second win in as many playoff games, striking out three in four scoreless innings.
"We rely on Dillon to come in and throw strikes. That's what he does best, and he did it again tonight for us," West coach Brandon Ball said. "He kept us in the ballgame and gave us a chance to win."
Asheville took a 1-0 lead in the first when Reed drove Mangum, who had singled, home with a two-out hit, but for the second straight game Edwards pulled West even as quickly as possible with a lead-off homer – a line drive over the fence in left that started a 5-for-5 day for the North Carolina State signee.
Cougar starter Chandler Cecil then walked Mitchell McCrary and allowed him to go home with two wild pitches wrapped around a groundout.
West pulled ahead 3-1 in the second on McCrary's sacrifice fly that plated Taylor Geer, who had walked, but Asheville struck back with four in the third to take a 5-3 advantage compliments of two infield singles followed by RBI singles from Jared Patterson and Reed aided by an error.
West used yet another free pass and wild pitch to score its fourth run in the fourth. Cody Sorrells walked with one out, went to second on Cecil's curve in the dirt and raced home when Edwards beat out a grounder to short.
Edwards also had a double. The rest of West's team only had four hits – two by Dolan. In two playoff games, Edwards is 7-for-8 with a walk.
Reed was 3-for-4 and Head 2-for-4 to lead Asheville's nine-hit attack. Cecil struck out six and walked five over seven innings for the Cougars out of the Mountain Athletic Conference, who end their season with a 10-10 record.
West (16-7-1) will travel to either Forestview or Burns on Wednesday for the third round.
