JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - A stray pit bull had a south Jackson resident living in fear for her safety every time she stepped out of her house. She claims animal control officers were slow to respond after repeated calls to their office.
According to Nancy Carter, it took two months for Jackson Animal Control officers to remove a stray pit bull on Ridgeland Drive.
"Nobody ever came. The dog was coming and going and growling at me every time I came out my house," said Carter.
From time to time she would see the dog taking shelter in the carport of a vacant house next door. Carter said she called Jackson Police dispatch several times during those couple of months to escort her from the driveway to inside her house. Then last Thursday the dog moved onto her front stoop. She made the call to Jackson Police again.
"She threatened me. She said we're going to send an officer out, but if you are not in that car and that dog is not on that porch we're going to give you a ride. Slam!" exclaimed Carter.
Carter contacted animal control, the police, the Mayor's action line, even the Mississippi Animal Rescue League before an animal control officer would set a trap on Friday. Saturday the dog was captured and Sunday animal control took it away.
"They are not doing their job. Animal Control is not doing their job," said Carter.
According to the most recent statistics from the Mississippi Spay and Neuter Alliance, Jackson Animal Control took in 1,538 animals and euthanized 1,048 in 2009.
An animal control manager was not available for comment Monday.

A lot of Emacs functions automatically split the screen. However, they all do so vertically, (ie; they make two windows, one on top of the other). Is there any way to make them all split horizontally (side-by-side) by default instead?
is what i had to use to get the desired behaviour (no horizontal splitting)
the simple answer of setting 2 variables to nil and 0 didn't work for me, so I wrote 2 simple functions: one just splits the window into NX vertical buffers and opens files named (for example) file.1 file.2 ... file.NX in each and another one does the same think, except does it in 2D (NY rows by NX columns for opening files f.1 f.2 ... f.[NX*NY]). To install, add this code to .emacs:
and then to use the vertical one, I go to *scratch* (
This probably can be done better/more efficiently, but it's a start and it does what I need it to do (display a bunch of sequentially named small files). Feel free to improve or reuse.
Sometimes we need change between Horizontal and Vertical according current display and our requirement (more lines or more columns).
I recommand the great ToggleWindowSplit, And I bind key to "C-c y"

Good for Prometheus that they reversed themselves on this issue. Transparency is usually the better way to go about these things. It's better for everyone to know the facts, than to fear the worst.

Real estate agent optimistic "great property" will sell
THE Redesdale Hotel failed to sell at auction on Sunday.
It was passed in on a vendor bid of $800,000, lower than the $1 million real estate agents were tipping.
However, co-agent Arch Staver from Nelson Alexander said he was optimistic the property would sell this week.
"It was a good day, we wanted to sell, however it was passed in for less than we hoped for," Mr Staver said.
There was a strong crowd - in fact, I think the whole town turned up, it was just unfortunate it didn't sell on the day.
"There was a strong crowd - in fact, I think the whole town turned up, it was just unfortunate it didn't sell on the day."
The prominent hotel, well-known in recent years as a popular bar and foodie destination, is on the Kyneton to Heathcote Road, midway between the two towns.
The freehold was offered complete as a going concern with agents Peter Moore, Hotel & Leisure Broker of the Melbourne Commercial Group, and Mr Staver expecting the property to reach the $1 million mark.
The distinctive 250-square metre single-storey bluestone hotel building is set on more than 9100 square metres of professionally landscaped grounds within one of Victoria's more popular wine regions.
It features a commercial kitchen complete with fixtures and fittings, a two-bedroom bed and breakfast unit called The Mews, which was used as onsite accommodation by the owners, and several other outbuildings.
There is also a transferable liquor licence.
Mr Moore said the owners remained "in a selling mood" and were open to offers.
"We had about 100 people attend the auction, with a lot of people from out of town," he said.
"It remains a great property with more than 4000 cars going past each week.
"We remain optimistic that the right buyer will come along and reopen the hotel once again for business."
Several other landmark buildings in central Victoria are also on the market.

The Morning After: Lions 31, Cowboys 30 (4-4)
Bob today is a great read, sad but true. "Now, since the final gun in Tempe at the end of Super Bowl 30, when Jerry and Barry were having a laugh and holding the trophy, the Cowboys are 144-145 in the 289 games (regular season and playoffs combined). This team is 4-4 and should not be attached to teams that featured Clay Shiver and Eric Bjornson, but they invariably are. They have to prove - with play in games like this - that this team is of different quality to those that helped fashion this reputation of mediocrity over the last 18 seasons. And on Sunday in Detroit, they did not. They played well enough to win and yet found a way to lose. "

"Greg Oden was in Portland recently, for the Rose Festival Parade, but has now returned home to Indianapolis. After a week there, he'll return to Ohio State to take some summer courses, and, of course, will continue to workout. Greg worked out at the practice facility over the weekend, and looked phenominal. He's used this time to really improve his outside shot, and has surprised nearly everyone with how consistent he's become.
Greg's free-throw shooting is very, very solid, and he's developed a deadly jump hook, and can go with either hand. Greg is raring to go up and down, but probably won't be cleared for full-speed scrimmaging until August. He's in tremendous shape, and is absolutely ripped up. In one of his final workouts in Portland, in front of coaches, reportedly, jaws were hitting the floor, as he was repeatedly attempting to tear the rim off the backboard. He's developed an impressive touch from the perimeter, and anything in the paint will be a dunk."
Oden will be a hybrid of Shaq, Garnett and Russell. Shaq's dominance, Garnett's outside jumper and Russell's defense. There's never been a player like that before. ;)

I have noticed the team was the only one at the ACC media day without their jerseys on and also at the team media day they didn't have their jerseys on either. Maybe some new uniforms are in the works they usually change them up every 4 years. Hopefully they finally made some cool pro combat uniforms, just no grey please.
would be pretty cool to have orange jerseys again, just nothing like these though.

If Germany wants to take complete control of Group C in UEFA World Cup qualifying, they'll have to control Zlatan Ibrahimović.
Zlatan's excellent form at the moment is reason to be concerned, but Sweden was hardly impressive against the lowly Faroe Islands on Friday, needing a late goal from Zlatan to salvage full points. Germany's task of controlling Zlatan will he helped by the return of captain Philipp Lahm who as serving a suspension during his team's 6-1 demolition of Ireland on Friday.
Joachim Loew has only one major injury concern going in to the match with Sami Khedira suffering from a calf strain. He left the Ireland match at halftime and while the injury wasn't as serious as first feared, Khedria is still not expected to play against Sweden. Mario Goetze is expected to be available despite some muscle soreness.
Sweden sit in second place, three points behind Germany. Erik Hamren will expect and demand a better performance from his team after their precarious 2-1 win over the Faroe Islands. A win would be huge for the Swedes, but it won't be an easy task against one of the world's best sides.
Sami Khedira is not expected to be available after suffering a calf strain in the first half against Ireland. The injury is not as severe as first feared, but he's not expected to play Tuesday. That said, Germany are refusing to rule him out, simply saying that his status is in doubt and he's receiving treatment.
Match Date/Time: 9:45 p.m. local, 2:45 p.m. ET
Venue: Olmypic Stadium, Berlin, Germany
TV: Sportsnet One (Canada)
Online: ESPN3 (U.S.)

Leaping sturgeon injures Florida woman
OLD TOWN, Fla. - A sturgeon jumped out of a river and hit a woman riding a personal watercraft causing severe injuries, the latest accident involving the flying fish along the Suwannee River, officials said.
Sharon Touchton, 50, of St. Petersburg, suffered a ruptured spleen and had three fingers reattached by surgeons, but she lost her left pinkie finger and a tooth.
She had been camping March 31 with a group of personal watercraft enthusiasts near the town of Suwannee in north Florida, said Karen Parker with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The group went for a ride and Touchton was traveling 25 to 30 mph before the accident.
Touchton's husband was the first to come up behind her after the accident and found her floating face-down in the water. No one else saw the collision, so it was initially unclear what had happened.
"I thought she was dead," said Nick Touchton, her husband. He remembers dragging her out of the water. She wasn't breathing and he could see that she had bitten through her tongue and it was swelling, choking her.
Her fingers had been sheared off by the sharp edge of the sturgeon's bony plate. They were hanging by a strip of flesh.
She was taken by helicopter to Shands at the University of Florida in Gainesville, where surgeons did their best to mend her injuries.
Parker said once Touchton was able to talk to investigators, she simply said something about a "big fish."
Parker said problems with sturgeon — which are large, prehistoric-looking fish with hard plates along their backs that can grow up to 8 feet long and up to 200 pounds — came to a head last year when 10 people were injured in accidents caused by the jumping fish.
Parker said the Gulf sturgeon migrate into the Suwannee River in March to spawn, and remain in the river until the fall. Researchers are not sure why the large fish jump.

Logger who died in accident, a fire captain, made honorary Stoddard fire chief
Shannon Sarcione, a Stoddard native, firefighter and logger who died in a logging accident Monday has been made an honorary Fire Chief.
Fire Capt. Shannon Sarcione's dream was to become a fire chief, Fire Chief P.J. Lamothe said Tuesday.
"Nice young man. I had the liberty of watching him grow up, becoming a man and raising a son who's 11 years old now," she said. "It's a devastating loss to his family, the firefighters in the department and the community."
Sarcione, 39, was raised in Stoddard by his parents Joseph and Bonnie Sarcione. He worked for his family logging and landscaping business, J & F Cord Wood LLC.
Sarcione and another man were cutting down trees Monday afternoon in an area off School Street. One of them had cut a notch in the tree, preparing to fell it after clearing some limbs nearby, said State Police Sgt. Phillip Gaiser.
Gaiser said high winds likely knocked over the tree before the loggers were ready to take it down. The other man was not injured and did not see the tree fall on Sarcione.
Sarcione was pronounced dead at the scene.
His father, Joseph Sarcione, is the department's deputy chief and has been a Stoddard firefighter for 35 years.
Lamothe, who has been in the department for 34 years, said Shannon Sarcione joined the town fire department at 19. He was a single dad and primary caregiver for his 11-year-old son.
"He loved being a father. He's very proud of his son," Lamothe said.
He also had just moved in with his girlfriend, who has a daughter.
"They were just starting a new life," she said.
In 2010, Sarcione along with the other members of the Stoddard Fire & Rescue team were awarded the 2010 Lawrence A. Volz Emergency Medical Service Heroism Award by N.H. Emergency Medical Service Committee of Merit for an Aug. 8, 2009, rescue of a Stoddard resident who was caught in the spillway on the Highland Lake Dam and clinging onto a cable.
Sarcione, as the operator of the rescue boat, played a vital role in the rescue, Lamothe said.
"The water levels were really high, and the currents were very strong, and we didn't have a lot of room. The crew of the boat could have gone over the dam themselves, so it was a very risky maneuver that they did," she said.
Lamothe said she was approached by another member of the fire department Tuesday and asked if Sarcione could be made an honorary chief. She thought it was a good idea so she made it so.
"He's a giver; he gives of himself to people; to people of the community and members of the department," she said of Sarcione. "You can call him up when you have a problem, and he drops everything and comes and helps you."
A memorial service for Sarcione is planned for 11 a.m. Saturday at James Faulkner Elementary School in Stoddard, she said.

At a Thursday morning fundraiser for his super PAC, former Bush political strategist Karl Rove told an audience of billionaires and influential investors that a chance for Republican control of the Senate is in jeopardy, then made a joke about Rep. Todd Akin (R-MO) being "mysteriously murdered."
"We should sink Todd Akin," he said, according to Bloomberg Businessweek reporter Sheelah Kolhatkar. "If he's found mysteriously murdered, don't look for my whereabouts!"
Rove added that there are "five people" interested in challenging Akin, potentially through a write-in campaign. "We don't care who the nominee is, other than to get Akin out," he reportedly said.
Rove has led a chorus of Republicans who want the embattled Missouri Senate candidate to pull out of the race after Akin told a reporter that women have some kind of biological defense against pregnancy in cases of what he called "legitimate rape."
Democrats pounced on those remarks and used them to remind voters that Akin's views on abortion and women's health issues are not much different from most other Republicans', including Mitt Romney's running mate Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI). Both Akin and Ryan co-sponsored a bill that would have denied federal assistance to rape victims unless they qualify for what they called "forcible rape."
Despite Rove's efforts to force him out of the race, Akin still enjoys some support from social conservatives like former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) and former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA). Akin says he's determined to keep campaigning all the way through November.
A survey published Thursday by the Democratic-affiliated Public Policy Polling group found that Akin is virtually tied with Sen. Claire McCaskill (R-MO), with 44 percent of survey respondents favoring McCaskill and 43 percent favoring Akin.

Can This Marriage Be Saved? We Became Parents and Fell Out of Love
September 30, 2011 at 2:40 pm , by Lauren Piro
A death in the family could easily put a new relationship on the fast-track. Add becoming parents into the mix you'd hardly recognize your own life. Alison, 31, and Trevor, 35, had only been dating eight months when his sister, Yvette, was killed and they were left to raise Yvette's four-year-old son, Donovan. Years later, they're still overwhelmed with grief and the parental learning curve, creating a schism that has each questioning their relationship—big time. Read the full story in our October issue, on newsstands now.
Alison's turn: After Yvette died, Alison immediately stepped up to be a mother to Donovan, but feels like Trevor isn't even trying. She knows he's grieving, but can't understand why he isn't acting a like a father figure for his nephew, who desperately needs love as well as discipline. Trevor won't even talk about Yvette and his pain, and Alison feels abandoned. She'd rather spend time with friends, they never have sex, and she feels like taking on the role of Donovan's mom without Trevor's support has left her lost. She won't leave Donovan without a mom again, and that's the only reason she wants to stay in her marriage.
Trevor's turn: Yvette's death crushed him—she was his closest friend. He wishes he could be as close to Donovan as Alison (and knows he's lucky Alison's there for his nephew), but one look at them playing together and all he can think of is his dead sister. Unlike Alison, he's a laid back, deal-with-it-later kind of guy and feels attacked when she pushes him to talk about his grief. He doesn't feel comfortable talking about personal stuff before he's ready, and Yvette was the only one he trusted because she didn't push. And don't get him started on Alison's demands that he help more with household chores. He'll pitch in when asked, but stonewalls when Alison picks these little fights as a way to channel her anger at him for how he's been acting. Still, he thinks that because they've been through so much, maybe they still have a shot at making it work.
The counselor's turn: Trevor and Allison's core problem was one that many couples may struggle with at one point or another: a break-down in communication. Because they differ in how they cope with and solve problems, each thought they were being clear about what they expected from each other, but neither was really listening. Trevor was willing to help with chores and raising Donovan, but he needed Allison to make him a list and not blow up at him for things he didn't even realize he was doing wrong. Alison needed recognition and emotional support from Trevor, but felt betrayed when her super-private husband wasn't up to talking about his feelings. Their relationship became a pressure cooker of hurt and anger. Counseling helped them move past the day-to-day fights over chores and parenting (Allison finally did make that list for Trevor), and start understanding their insecurities and the pain they were causing each other. When Alison gave Trevor space to deal with Yvette's death on his own, eventually he did open up with his feelings. Today, by sticking with counseling, their relationship is stronger and easier, and they both feel they have a partner in life again.

It really depends on both parties. Marriage is about giving and caring. If you always try to do everything your way, of course it won't work. You have to give up sometimes.

It's too bad Karl Ravech was barely on BBTN last season and we had to watch assholes like Scott Reiss host the show. Ernie Johnson is good too on TNT, but Charles just slows down the pace of that show so much and his comments are never that insightful. As far as the worst, noone comes to mind besides Chris Berman.

For three days, the world's best bike and gear manufacturers will be set up at the Outerbike Expo site. You can walk through and see next year's innovations, pick a bike you'd like to try and take it for a ride. Repeat as needed. There are 20 miles of connected loops that range from fun and easy to technical and gnarly, plus a paved bike path leading to two National Parks for road rides. Your registration fee buys you lunches, shuttled rides, prizes, movies and entrance to our evening parties. The riding for Demo Days includes the "Brand Trails" network located adjacent to the event site. Additionally, riders will have the opportunity to take shuttles to some of the more famous trails in the Moab area. Shuttles will run back and forth to the trail selected for that day.

I'm back (more or less)...
We got most of the household moved the first couple of days, but had to deal with recently repaired plumbing that decided to not stay repaired (no main bathroom, kitchen iffy) and a few other glitches (since fixed). We're still getting all the business stuff rearranged and hauled around. Today we finally strung a phone line to my new office, which has me, my chair, my table, my computer, a light, and that's it so far. We plan to line the walls with shelves, which will let me move my library, which is still at the old apartment. I've been meaning to cull my library for years now, but haven't. So that ought to be quite a job, hauling those books across. But it ought to be fun. I can't remember the last time I could have all my books in one room. Usually I have to fit a few in the living room, some in the bedroom, and the rest wherever we can find room.
We had four hale and hearty young folks (each twenty years old, give or take a few years) help us with the main move. They made it look almost easy. Since this move involves going across the street and down just a couple of doors, we hauled most of it by hand and by handtruck instead of loading and unloading from vehicles. The post office is between the old place and the new place. Some of the folks who work at the post office somehow didn't get the memo that we were moving, and I guess were vastly puzzled and a little concerned at the furniture and boxes walking out of our place. At any rate, when I knocked on the door a week ago Saturday to pick up a package, the woman who gave me my package hesitated, and then asked, "Are you guys moving?" and then looked relieved when I said we were. "We kept seeing furniture," she said. :-)
(Side note: We only have partial post office service Saturdays around here. If you get a slip in your post office box saying you have a package on Saturday, you either knock on the door to the sorting room before noon, or you wait until Monday.)
We waited to bring the cats across until the bulk of stuff was over. They have become new cats. They did not necessarily like being hauled into new surroundings, but once the shock was over, they have been having a heyday. George found her way to the top of the bedroom door this morning, from which perch she made me rather nervous when I got within pouncing range. She has never done a door perch before this, that I know about. Gracie has decided that her current calling is to hunt spiders, real and imaginary. My husband, poor fellow, has a very large scratch across his forehead, from when he accidentally got between her and a spot on the wall, which I assume she mistook for a spider. (This cat, you understand, is usually lethargic. The new surroundings have done her good, I guess. Something got unleashed, at any rate.)
Speaking of my husband, ahem, I should probably tell you that I have discovered that there are two rules for moving a man on oxygen therapy. One, after moving an oxygen concentrator, always check to make sure that all the settings and connections are in proper order. Two, always have a tank of oxygen on hand, in case anything goes wrong with the recently jostled oxygen concentrator. He's fine, but not because we were smart. Somehow in all the activity, everybody thought that somebody else had taken care of doublechecking the connections, etc. Five thirty in the morning our first night here, he wakes me up because he realizes that he's not getting enough oxygen and probably hasn't been for hours. The middle of the night after a long, hard, physically exhausting day I'm not too quick on the uptake, but I hauled out of bed and started checking like crazy. It turned out that the hose wasn't on tight, for one, and the hose had gotten so twisted that the air flow was compromised, for another. Luckily, he's no longer what they call "brittle" and we got away with it. Yikes, though. (Overall, though, knock wood, he's doing well.)
I used to think that talking about sick people in terms of "he likely won't make it to Thanksgiving, and certainly will be gone by Christmas" was a rather odd way of looking at things. No more. Not after this year. Not after feeling the relief and gratitude and joy of having him here for the holidays. Not that we did anything special this year. Yesterday we went to the hardware store and bought a few things for the new house, including new drinking glasses. We've been married long enough now that the drinking glasses are in odd ones and twos and threes, survivors of different sets. So now we have a full, matched set, shaped in a way that's easier for my husband to hold when the MS gets nasty. This was a Christmas of little things like that. Mostly we just rejoiced in being together. A big gift, that.
I didn't decorate. I haven't a clue where the Christmas decorations are right now, to be honest with you. Somewhere in storage, I assume. Even if I'd found them, I'm too busy getting the basics set up. The bathroom has no drawers in the cabinet, for instance, and I've never had to organize a bathroom without drawers. (Book lover hint: To keep books from getting wavy pages from being left in the bathroom, try putting them in a drawer, if you have a drawer that shuts tightly, in a cabinet with no dampness problems.) I'm still making the kitchen workable. The dining room needs lighting. Then there's that library to move. There are no real closets here, either. There are shelves to install, and curtains to fix. Decorations would have been in the way.
I still haven't checked even half of my accumulated e-mail yet. Nor have I made the rounds of my usual sites yet. I expect I'll be a bit out of touch for a while yet. We only got television service a couple/three days ago, so I've been without both Internet and television.
Dare I say it? It was a nice break, not being bombarded with bad news, foul language, and lousy attitudes for a change.
On the other hand, I've missed my contacts in the blogosphere.
We've got the easy part of the move behind us, but there's still lots to do. I've got to finish getting us out of the apartment. Beyond that, we have the inventory for the online bookstore moved - but not the shipping room. At present, we verify orders in one place, pull the books from another, and then have to haul the books across the street to the shipping room. (Luckily we're good at laughing at ourselves.) For a while, things will get more complicated, but in the end it should be simpler to run the bookstore than before. That's the plan, anyway.
So, 'til later.

Welcome back, Kathryn. What a job moving is! We have done it 12 times -- and will have to move again when my husband retires in just a few months now.
Just a few tasks a day will eventually do it. Enjoy your new home.

Thanks, Joan. Overall I am enjoying myself. I was fine about living in an apartment all these years, but having a real house again is something of a treat, I'm finding.
The big hurdles, for us, are the having to move our offices and Internet bookstore at the same time, without leaving any customers in the lurch. Or missing nightly reports or payroll at our gas station. Or getting messed up with end of year accounting. That sort of thing. You know, the stuff you don't realize you need things arranged "just so" for, until things are no longer "just so." Logistics, logistics, logistics...
Good luck with your move!

Welcome back, we missed you. I have done it more times than I wanted to. Enjoy, it will all eventually get done.

Thanks, Jane. I'm especially looking forward to when everything gets settled enough that I can start in earnest on the stuff that will make the house pleasant and beautiful. For instance, the landlord told me I can pick the colors and he'd supply the paint. That is too good a deal to pass up, in my book. I intend to have great fun repainting the dining room and bedroom, which are presently very smudged and scarred, wall-wise. And there's a flower box built in right in the front of the house. I intend having great fun there, too, come spring and summer.

It's so nice to have you back blogging, Kathyrn. It's also wonderful that the little oxygen oversight, while immediately distressing, didn't create any long term problems. I wish you very happy in your new home, and I look forward to much future blogging.

I didn't expect you back so soon, so I have a lot of a reading to catch up on!
Having just moved in August, I know how long it takes to get things sorted out.
And thanks be to God for continuing to preserve the life of your husband. May God grant him many years.

Thanks, Dave. I've been doing a lot of "thanks be to God" myself during and after this scare. I'm counting my blessings this season in a whole new way, believe me.
I was raised by a mother who thought religion was for idiots and prayer was worse than worthless. It took me a few years away from home to figure out she was wrong. When David was at death's door, reaching out to God gave me strength as well as comfort, and we could both feel that others were praying for us, and it gave us peace as well as hope. I appreciate your prayers.

Heads up Bronco fans. Our favorite midget from ESPN Snookie (aka Sarah Phillips) is back at it. If you missed what happened last week, Sarah awoke the sleeping dragon that is the Boise State fans when she posted this horrible column for ESPN: http://espn.go.com/espn/page2/index?id=6944596
Well Snookies wish came true and a "I hate Sarah Phillips" group was indeed created. Sarah takes a step backward last week and posted the following:
No. 4 Boise State at Toledo, Friday, 8 p.m. ET, ESPN
All right, Boise fans. I'd like to visit Idaho at some point in my life, so let me use this week's Boise pick as a peace offering for last week's column. The Broncos are 5-1 against the spread when set as a 10½-point favorite or greater, so that bodes well for impressing the computers. Drilling Toledo this week is the equivalent of throwing spinners on the Boise State RAV 4. Let's work together on tricking it out to make it presentable at the end of the season to the BCS. Deal? Oh, and if you're going to create a Boise State "I Hate Sarah Phillips" group, at least get membership in the triple digits. You're better than that.
Pick: Boise State (-17½)
To be fair, the group is already in the triple digits, but if your interested in joining the facebook group and adding to the already growing number here you go; http://www.facebook.com/groups/172664309475972/?notif_t=group_activity
After multiple death threats Sarah then goes ahead and picks Kellen Moore to win the Heisman Trophy, what's going on here? Bellow is an excerpt from her column:
Kellen Moore (6:1)
Oddsmakers are rooting hard for a Reno reprise, as Moore presents the greatest liability for sports books if he wins the Heisman.
However, there are plenty of reasons to believe Moore will win. He's on pace to complete 70 percent of his passes, with a 5:1 touchdown to interception ratio, and he's the leader of a team which will probably finish the season undefeated. Plus, Moore no longer plays in the whack conference, which improves his candidacy.
Now, ask yourself: Will Moore have Heisman-level statistics this season? Check. Will Moore help Boise State clinch a berth in a BCS bowl game? Check. Will Moore fail to translate college supremacy into NFL stardom? Check. Out of 76 Heisman recipients, only eight winners have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The Heisman Award is often a precursor for winding up in Page 2's Backup Quarterback Rankings.The last Heisman winner from outside the major conferences was BYU quarterback Ty Detmer in 1990. But that streak is about to end.Kellen Moore is going to bring the Heisman Trophy to Idaho. That's no small potatoes.
Fast forward one week and Sarah is back again (bipolar) to drink her ellitist Kool-aid. Here is her prediction for the Tulsa game:
Tulsa at No. 4 Boise State, 8 p.m. ET, CBS Sports Network
I'm just as shocked as you are, Boise fans. I thought this nonconference showdown would be on national TV. If playing Tulsa doesn't boost a team's strength of schedule, I don't know what does. The Golden Hurricane doesn't have the talent to beat Boise State, but it has had success covering the number against the Broncos. Tulsa is 3-0 against the spread in its past three meetings against Boise, and it's 10-3 against the spread in its past 13 games overall.
Pick: Tulsa (-32½)

Pretend the '80s never happenedPUBLISHED: 29 May 2012 00:03:38 | UPDATED: 27 Jul 2012 14:12:40PUBLISHED: 29 May 2012 PRINT EDITION: 29 May 2012
Deirdre Macken
The '80s are back! And already, we can hear the groans. Not the shirtless rock stars, dirty dancing, dodgy traders, stiff hair, sloppy socks and rocket-breasted Madonna on rewind. Anything but the '80s.
We can do the '60s again – pretty music, hopeful times, comfy pants. We're happy to do the '70s – shaggy hair, angry politics and unisex hair. We'll even revisit the '50s for irony or the '20s for frivolity. But the '80s?
They've tried it before. During the '90s, it seemed like a good idea to revive flick hair and Charlie's Angels and just a few years ago shoulder pads slipped into shirts and Miami Vice got another airing. But it never worked.
Still, the pressure is on now. The cultural bandwagon has set off and it's heading your way in the cinemas, on TV, on the music circuit and in the rhetoric of those who hanker for the early days of neo-cons.
Many still won't want to believe it, but let's take a minute to see what's already crept into the culture.
On the music scene, we've just had Prince in the country. He was the purpled performer of the '80s who changed his name to the Artist Formerly Known as Prince and then changed it back to Prince. In his name alone, he rode post-modernism in and out of fashion.
Just before Prince arrived, we were treated to Adam Ant and his pirate allure, we got a glimpse of Boy George and we sipped wine to Duran Duran in the vineyards. And then, there's Madonna.
If we haven't had enough of '80s deja vu, the movie Rock of Ages will supply more. Set in Hollywood in 1987, this movie/musical rips to the sounds of Bon Jovi, Pat Benatar and Def Leppard, with Tom Cruise hogging the mike.
Due out in two weeks, Rock of Ages reminds us of a time when Hollywood dreams were still dreams, nightclubs were hard to access and rock concerts were sing-alongs.
Other movies will also exhume the '80s. Billy Crystal is doing a grandfatherly sequel to Parenthood called Parental Guidance; Bruce Willis is bringing the fifth Die Hard movie to the screen and rumour has it that Arnold Schwarzenegger is gearing up for some Robocop-type throwback. And did we mention Dirty Dancing? It's on the way back too.
If you want to watch An Officer and a Gentleman, you don't have to download a DVD, it's on live in Sydney at the moment.
Culture makers aren't the only ones getting into this '80s thing. Our markets are looking very post-1987 at the moment. The markets of the '80s had a crash prompted by greed, excessive spending and tricky financial dealings. We've also had a crash sparked by greed, excessive spending and tricky financial dealings. They had Wall Street, we have Margin Call.
And politics is pining for the early years of the neo-cons when being conservative was new, exciting and free of religious rhetoric.
The revival of Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady has buffed her place in history and Ronald Reagan is being resuscitated by Republicans as the role model for conservative politics. And doesn't Hillary look a bit Cyndi Lauper at the moment – the flick in the hair, the dark glasses and structured shoulders?
Time after time, as Cyndi might say, we're hearing the knock of the ''80s at our cultural doors. But do we have to answer the door?
For those who were there, the temptation is to act deaf – hey, we're half deaf after all those years of Def Leppard anyway.
We don't want to go there because the '80s was a dud decade. Even in the '80s we knew it was a dud. Even as we padded up and wove rags into our hair, we knew it wasn't a good look. When Madonna got into crazy bras, we knew it was irony. When Gordon Gekko told us greed was good, we didn't believe him.
We invented Young, Upwardly Mobile Professionals and then parodied them endlessly.
And, ever since then, the '80s has become shorthand (ha, remember shorthand) for try-hard, ostentatious silliness. It's never slipped into nostalgia because it's never emerged from embarrassment.
So, I'm betting we won't go there. And, if our kids catch some of this retro stuff and ask us about it, we'll deny it.
We'll say we were too young, too old or too poor. And, then, we'll hide the photo albums.
Why? Because revivals tell us more about where we are now rather than what we were then. It wasn't pretty then and it's not getting any prettier in retrospect.

Parma Rod and Gun Club is proud to announce their 10th Anniversary IDPA Match on Saturday September 13, 2014. Ten years ago Idaho had its first ever IDPA state match with about 40 shooters and staff. Now we boast one of the best matches in the West with hundreds of IDPA fans coming from across the country (and even the world) to shoot this match. This year will be a great event as we have picked 15 of the best stages from the last 10 years. A once in a lifetime opportunity to get another ride in the Kabota from 2005's "Escape from Cleveland Boulevard" or the adrenaline rush of 2010's "Elevator to Nowhere". Match Director Aaron Goodfellow and staff invite you to experience a fantastic, fun and challenging match along with, "the best lunch in the shooting sports!"
When: Saturday, Sept 13, 2014
This course is for people who own firearms and have never trained with them dynamically. If you're ready to start learning how to operate your firearm effectively in real life situations under stress, then this is the course for you!
Recently 100.3 the X ventured outdoors to the PRGC to do a little shooting and sniping and enjoy the great outdoors. The 3 radio DJ's had a little contest between themselves and enjoyed a day at the range. Check out the Video!
To the winner of the TacSol/Vortex Rifle!
Hope to see you at the range putting it to good use!
Board of Directors
What a great match! Score posted under Scores! Thanks to all that came out!
On Feb 15th, 2014, the Parma Rod and Gun club activivated it's new electronic gate entry system. The board spent the entire day at the range assiting members with the new gate procedure and helping new members with their memberships. The weather was terrible in the morning, but we still had a great turnout for the day.
We anticipate that their may be a problem or two with the new gate, we have tried to forsee all the issues that may happen, but as all of the membership starts using it, there will be something that comes up that we didn't think about. If this happens to you, please let us know right away, and we will get it fixed. Just use the contact form at the top of the page to get a hold of us.Thank you to all the members that make this a great club to be a part of, and enjoy your range!
Spring is a season of change and new life, and that is certainly true for our club. If you have been to the range recently you are aware of the change that has taken place. If not, you need to make a trip to fully appreciate what has happened. If you have been around for a few years you know that the club is always growing and transforming. We have been hosting more and more events that has made the club recognizable around the nation. With the growth has come some growing pains. One of the most often heard feedback is that the members just want a place to shoot/ When we have big events often the whole range is shut down leaving no place for the members that are not participating to shoot their guns.
We know and we heard. We are so pleased and proud to announce the member's only shooting area. It is located where the small-bore area used to be. The member's only pits include a 50 yard pit and a 200 yard pit. Both pits have covers, tables, backer boards and benches. The 50 yard pit will also feature permanent steel for the handguns shooters to use and practice on.
Also new to the range is a atv/motorcycle load and unload ramp. Many more of these vehicles have been put in use at the range and we felt this was a nice amenity to the range. Down by the members only was a camping spot that many have used. Last fall we installed sprinklers and planted grass, it is taking off and looks amazing. Every member should be very proud of this area of the range.
I would be remiss if I did not mention all of the hard work and volunteers that made this happen. First is two board members Gary Lies and Steve Leonard. These two guys are supposed to be retired, but they have been putting in more than full time hours making all these improvements happen. Without Gary and Steve we don't have the new covers, concrete, signs, etc, etc. Charles Franks has been the guy running the small cat and tractor around. He has been instrumental in making the range look good after the big equipment tears it up. He also was instrumental in the atv ramp and the new irrigation and seed for the camping area. Last is Jim Shake, he is often out there spraying weeds, cleaning, watering, etc. He has been a huge help in maintaining and keeping the range clean and weed free. There are many, many others that all help out. If you see someone working at the range, stop and tell them thanks.
Thanks for respecting this and enjoy the range!

By Christian Jennings - bio | email Baker County, GA (WALB) - What may look like a forest fire burning out-of-control is actually a prescribed fire.
"It's a safe way to apply a natural process," said Mark Melvin of the Jones Ecological Research Center.
Every year starting in January and wrapping up in early April. experienced burners and experts with the Georgia Forestry Commission start fires to benefit you, and the environment.
The fires eliminate fuels from the ground like this leaf or pine needles, which lowers the risk of wildfires.
And wildfires can last several weeks and put thousands of people in danger.
"Those fires are much more difficult to control and they produce much more smoke than a prescribed fire," said Melvin.
Besides protecting people, foresters say Georgia wildlife, like quail, turkey, and deer, depend on their efforts.
"Many of the plants and animals evolved in a fire maintained system so they depend on frequent fire for their survival," said Melvin.
But are these controlled burns really safe? "This is applied by trained fire managers and under specific conditions to meet specific objectives and actually benefit and mimic these natural processes that these forests evolved in," said Melvin.
And you can even do it yourself. In fact, foresters encourage it. "The first thing they need to do is obtain a permit from the ga forestry commission. they need to have a plan, and they need to be very aware of the weather," said Greg Findley of the Georgia Forestry Commission.
A day with cold steady winds moving in one direction is ideal.
But if you're going to do this yourself, make sure you have fire breaks, and a way to contain the fire. Then you can do your part preventing fires with fire.
In Georgia, a little over 1 million acres are burned annually. Half of that occurs in Southwest Georgia.

A judge has revoked probation for 19-year-old Princeton Harlan and the one-time quarterback at Mt. Pleasant High School will soon be going to prison.
Harlan was originally charged with the rape of a 12-year-old girl, but pleaded guilty to lesser charges.
Instead of going to jail, he got 10 years probation, a sentence many said was too lenient considering the crime.
As part of his probation, Harlan was not allowed to be around juveniles.
Last month, he was arrested after he was found in hotel room with a 17-year-old girl.
Thursday, a judge revoked his probation, sending him to prison for 10 years.
In an exclusive interview with Nashville's News 2 Friday, Harlan, who once had college football programs like the University of Tennessee and Mississippi State interested him, said he intends to move forward.
"Just going through the situation I'm going through, you have no choice but to get your mind right and move forward [and] that is what I am to do," he said.
Some called Harlan's probated sentence a second chance and said after his recent arrest, he blew it. He, however, doesn't see it that way.
"Really, there was no freedom because they were still watching me," Harlan said. "I already knew they were going to get me when I got on probation so I was already prepared for it."
He continued, "People can say I blew it, but I ain't gonna get into details, but I got caught and this is what I have to do so I am gonna have to do it."
Harlan says he doesn't expect to be in prison for the full 10 years. He said his family is talking to powerful people and there is a plan on his behalf. When pressed, however, he declined to comment further.

Helping Combat Poverty Through Enabling Communication
Earlier this week, the Washington DC based Grameen Foundation unveiled the Village Phone Direct Assistance Center -- a new initiative to continue its ongoing efforts to combat poverty worldwide through enabling and improving access to financial services and information.
To give you some quick background: the Village Phone is an initiative pioneered by Grameen Telecom in Bangladesh, through which the Foundation works to create a link between the telecommunications sector and the microfinance sector. This in turn enables microfinance clients to borrow the money needed to purchase a "Village Phone business" -- a small phone booth that uses a cell phone in other words.
The Village Phone Operators purchase a cell phone starter kit and then rent the use of their phone to the community on a per-call basis (they charge by the minute.) The initiative is particularly significant because it operates in places where no telecommunications services previously existed, spurring the development of economic growth and social relationships that were formerly seriously hindered by the lack of any local communication devices.
The Foundation explains that prices are kept affordable and the relationship aims to be heavily symbiotic, with the village phone operator earning enough to repay his loans and hopefully even make a profit, and the villagers themselves finally being able to make phone calls without taking the day off work and trekking miles out to do so.
Village Phone Direct, is a grassroots approach to the original program, through which microfinance institutions can work directly with local telecom providers to set up village phones businesses, without waiting for the Foundation to roll out a national Village Phone replication program. A Direct program is already operating in the Philippines.
The Foundation's new Kenya based Village Phone Direct Assistance Center features a how-to manual, a message board, customizable templates and other information that will help MFIs work independently with local telecommunications providers to develop Village Phone Direct programs for their clients.
When politicians spout rhetoric about how infrastructure must be developed in order for developing countries to move forward, it often conjures up mental images of huge railroads, dams and telecommunication grids -- huge projects that require massive funding, which ordinary people like me usually feel overwhelmed by and dissociated from. Initiatives like Village Phone are perhaps easier for the individual to grasp, and contribute to, in a directly meaningful manner.
So the next time you leave your cell phone at home and spend your day feeling sorry for yourself because you're so 'cut off' from everyone around you (and I've definitely been guilty of falling into this category of wallowers,) take a moment to think about people who consider themselves lucky to even see a phone once a month. Perhaps you'll carry on with the rest of your day feeling just a little less frustrated and a little more connected.

Dear sir,
The article is thought provoking and very inspiring. I request you to post issues related to the Nepalese villages where similar initiatives are taken. This will encourage the people working in this field.For contents and information I can also provide you sir.
Currently a team of IT Engineers are trying to aware the rural community about ICT by establishing CIC(Community Information Centers).Also we are using local FM, radios, and newspapers for awareness of ICT. We are hoping for the constant encouragement and support to us to "to r evolute Nepal through ICT". Scale may be small but we are trying our best to get this mission
achieved. Our working method is "By the Community For the Community and with community" .
Additionally, we also like to be involved actively in national E-Governance and ICT activities. We are sure that our effort given a chance can help this mission be accomplished to some extent. Hoping to hear from you.

... a child's world seen in a scribble of a three-year old and sent me as cover for 'thank you' card.
It has been seed and source of images for my new work. I know this domain, the place we return to from which we came,
a garden of Eden before we filled our mouths with knowledge. A radiant life that opens the eye to yellow birds adults see only as
leaves on a tree. A plane of being easier for me to access then Blake's 'universe in a grain of sand'. It's a garden where creature of mind
come and go, where things are not subject to names and labels. Children tune into this energy behind the physical and become participants in
the wonder of magical surprise. Children discover who they are in empathy with their surroundings, alas, not always to advantage, for unlike adults they make no division between the self and the other. This unaffected, innocent, observant level of existence is where I choose to be and try and maintain and cultivate. (While it protects me from much social practice and conditioning, admittedly it results in an immaturity that leaves me novice to much that is expected of adult behaviour and attitudes.)
In Stanley's drawing, the brush loaded with blue paint left two uncovered spaces, shapes that by chance might have been drawn by me.
A standing figure of a man, and a head of an old man. As I peered further into the brush marks a rich landscape emerged and this fills and
becomes content of my paintings.

Menu Plan Jan. 4, 2010!
Posted By Heather On January 4, 2010 @ 2:41 pm In Menu Plan | 1 Comment
[2]Happy New Year! Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. We really had a nice holiday break, but I'm ready to get back on schedule. If you haven't had a chance yet, check out the Gluten-Free Menu Swap this week [3]. Manda at Asparagus Thin is hosting this week with a movie theme. Great idea! I had fun coming up with my movie-themed menu.
Monday – Lasagne (Movie: Garfield – The Movie [4])
Using gluten-free pasta [5], of course, we'll be having lasagne served with a tossed green salad. I'll also slice a gluten-free baguette [6] and bake with Weman's garlic-cheese finishing butter [7].
Tuesday – Pulled Pork Sandwiches [8]
Slow-cooked pork shoulder shredded and topped with barbecue sauce and a gluten-free bun. Serving with French fries and spicy slaw [9].
Wednesday – zPizza [10] (Movie: Mystic Pizza [11]. Remember this 1988 movie with Julia Roberts?)
Last week, I got some gift certificates to try zPizza. I'll pick up a couple gluten-free pizzas after my daughter's dance class, which happens to be right around the corner from zPizza. How convenient!
Thursday – Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry (Movie: Kung Fu Panda [12] – OK, I know dumplings would've been a better choice for this movie, but this is the best I can do this week. If you want to try making your own gluten-free dumplings, try the recipe at Hey, that tastes good! [13])
Marinating sirloin strips [14] in a Chinese-inspired marinade and stir-frying with broccoli, cabbage, celery, carrots, and any other vegetables I need to cook up. Serving over rice.
Friday – Leftovers
Looks like a good night to clean out the refrigerator and eat up the leftovers.
Saturday – Corn Dogs (aka Nitrate-sicles) (Movie: There's Something About Mary [15] – I guess we could have "Frank and Beans," but I'm thinking about the line that Ben Stiller's character says: "I say they should put more meats on a stick, you know? They got a lot of sweets on sticks–popsicles, fudgesicles, lollipops–but hardly any meat.")
It's been a long time since I made gluten-free corn dogs. Maybe the kids will eat them this time.
Sunday – Grilled Steaks
It is very cold and windy here this week, so I will be grilling these indoors on the new Grill Pan [16] I got for Christmas. (Thanks, Dan!) Serving with baked potatoes and a tossed green salad.

Hi to all,
I'm interested in creation of call recorder application.
I'd like to be able to create for recorded call two audio files: one for each party of the call.
So suppose that user place a phone call, I'd like two audio files.
* INCOMING.wav that contains incoming audio
* OUTGOING.wav that contains outgoing audio
As first step could also be OK have only one file, where there is outgoing audio only, I'd like to implement this setting audio gain recording volume to zero for incoming audio.
I've search the documentation, but I've not found anything, could you suggest me something?
Thank you very much!

Nice design & graphics, amazing work! Good luck with sales.
Thank you IulianN
Excellent ! What about a Wordpress version ?…
I would consider to make the wordpress version later
Very Polished work – is it possible to show navigation controls on the full width slider homepage?
sure it's possible by insert the HTML of top menu in featured area div and add increase the featured area height for top menu space in the CSS
No – I mean prev/next icons left and right of slider image to allow scrolling back and forth!
sure, navigation controls can be activated easily through the setting file
Awesome work!
Thanks you louiejie
I'm new in this website but does themeforest really give you money ??
just google about themeforest
Hey there,
Thanks for the template, good luck with the sales…
Many thanks for purchase Brendon27!
hi – like the design and layout. is there a reason you didn't have a search field in the header somewhere? I really need a search field instead of the very top menu but it seems whenever i get a template and try to implement myself i always break the code.
I'll update the item with search field included
excellent. would love it to be something like the one on themeforest (dropdown).
let me know when you update it and i will purchase straight away.
Hi sandlog
I've added search field on the template (on top area)
ok great – i just checked it out but don't see the search form yet. maybe the preview hasn't been updated.
i will check back. thanks
Please check again. live preview updated
Great one, really like it, nice details,clean…
Glad you like it anariel7
Hi: i want to buy this template but; the option Buy now via PayPal doesn't work, what happen? thanks
Hi memop71
Seems you've bought another themes before so I think you're understand how to purchase. Just try again the 'purchase' button, if you still can't buy the template I think it's more appropriate to ask themeforest support
Really like the template – quick question. What's the best way to increase the size of the logo in the CSS ?
HI krodgers
You can open the "style.css" (in CSS folder) then edit width – height of logo on following line codes
#logo { width:190px; ---> change the width of logo height:38px; -----> change the height of logo float:left; margin-top:30px; } #logo { background: transparent url(../img/logo.png) no-repeat scroll center left; }
Awesome template iWebStudio!!! I would like to know if it is possible to integrate cufon fonts for headings or maybe @fontface, I'm new to HTML5 but i guess it can be possible. Any orientation will be helpful. Thanks!!
Hi Roberto019
This template already using @font-face : Colaborate font as you can see in "font.css" file in 'css' folder
You can use your choosen @font-face font from http://www.fontsquirrel.com and go to http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator to generate @font-face, upload your font, download the kit then replace the current 'font' folder's files also replace current 'font.css' with the new one. Please just email me for better assist
If you had an info bubble/pop-up for hoverovers, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Otherwise, great theme.
Very nice work. During the day I get absolutely.
Thank you UnPoo
Hey there,
I am trying to get the bg-1.jpg to wrap across the page as it does in the demo… How is this done?
Fullwidth Page
headline-page {
background: url("../img/featuredbg/bg-1.jpg") no-repeat scroll center top transparent; height: 250px; margin-top: 30px; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-top: 30px; }
Index Page
headline-page {
background: url("../img/featuredbg/bg-1.jpg") no-repeat scroll center top transparent; height: 250px; margin-top: 30px; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; padding-top: 30px; }
Could you please tell me where I need to edit this, as it does look heaps better wrapping the full width of the page.
Awesome template… Buy it!!!!
Cheers Brendon
Hi, I'm trying to get the s3slideshow descriptions to display consistently with each of the images I've listed in the slideshow. Currently the descriptions in the desc_left and desc_right do not show up every time with the associated images. This can also be observed in your live example. I am using the same code as index2 and have not altered the js. Thanks in advance. Bill
Looks really nice, going to use for my new company page with Umbraco as the CMS powering it
Hi iWebStudio!
One question for you! In index2.html, s3slider only the first image example display on the left the description. All the 3 remaining ones have no description displayed! Am I missing a setting somewhere?
BTW , Excellent template!
We've replied your email, sorry for delay since we've received your message in our spam folder
Thank you
Hi iWebStudio!
I think I've found the issue!
If we remove the
<div class="clear" /> inside each s3sliderImage
<li> </li> everything's seems to work! Let me know what you think!
unused s#Slider list that causing the problems, we've fix it.
Thank you
