Wednesday, May 22, 2013District Softball: Elmwood's Benschoter blanks Gibsonburg, 7-0
BOWLING GREEN -- Miranda Benschoter's arm and timely hitting propelled Elmwood over Gibsonburg 7-0 Tuesday in a Division III district semifinal at Bowling Green High School.
The sophomore right-hander pitched a two-hitter while fanning 11 and walking one in seven innings.
"My riseball was really working today," Benschoter said. "You can never let up. Even if it's not a close game, they could hit anything and you still have to keep going hard.
"We know we can come out strong every game. It's what we've been doing."
Elmwood (22-5) advances to Saturday's noon district final to face the winner of today's meeting between Eastwood and Evergreen.
The Royals' offense started slowly, but it didn't worry Elmwood coach Matt Hoiles.
"The hitting team that I have, I knew they would make adjustments," Hoiles said. "Miranda on the mound is definitely growing up in front of us. She is getting pretty dominant at points when she is hitting her spots inside and outside. As a team defense, we played well besides one error we had, but for the most part our defense was ready to go."
The game started as a pitcher's duel between Benschoter and Gibsonburg's Danielle Fisher. The game was scoreless in the first three innings before Elmwood drew first blood.
In the bottom of the fourth, Katie Bottesch singled to right and Madison Arnold was hit by a pitch. Rebecca Harvey grounded out to Fisher, who threw to get the force out at third.
Arnold then stole third and scored on an illegal-pitch call.
In the fifth, Brittany George hit a two-out double down the left-field line that scored Jennilee Myers, upping the score to 2-0 heading into the sixth.
The Royals then put the game away with a five-run outburst as runs scored on two errors, a fielder's choice and an RBI single by Ragan Yarnell.
"Our baserunning is going to be ready," Hoiles said. "We are going to take advantage of fielding miscues and we are going to take off and go. I think that put them on their heels. I've got a group of girls that can run the bases."
With the score 7-0 in the top of the seventh, Benschoter gave up a single to Lindsey Perales, but came back to retire the side.
Marisa Alvardo's double in the third inning gave the Golden Bears their only runner in scoring position.
"That game was closer than what the final score said it was," Gibsonburg coach Anthony Ruiz said. "It kind of got away from us late in the game. I think fatigue set in and we just didn't have enough today to affect the end of the game."
George led the Royals at the plate with a double, a single and an RBI, while Bottesch and Tori Hillard had a single with two RBIs. Olivia Meyers added a single.
Fisher went six innings, giving up seven earned runs on eight hits with four walks.
Gibsonburg 000 000 0 -- 0 2 3 Elmwood 000 115 x -- 7 8 1
WP -- Benschoter. LP -- Fisher. top hitters: (Gib) Alvarado 2B. (Elm) B. George 2B, 1B; Bottesch 1B, 2 RBI; Hillard 1B, 2 RBI; Benschoter 1B; Yarnell 1B, RBI.

Fall High Point Market sees 6% traffic increase over 2010
December 6, 2011-- Home Accents Today,
BUSINESS WAS BRISK at the Fall High Point Market, held Oct. 22-27, with a 6% increase in market attendance over the fall 2010 market, the High Point Market Authority reported.
A total of 75,859 home furnishings professionals registered for this year's fall market, with 44,779 of those registrants being buyers, said Tom Conley, president and CEO of the HPMA.
"We saw that the appetite for buying was stronger than we've seen in recent markets, he said. "Business was energetic, and this market has positioned us well for future growth."
Conley attributed better business at market to a strong Labor Day weekend for retailers and economic gains in housing starts and consumer spending during September.
Other stats from the market reported by the HPMA include:
■ Total number of registrants was up 5% over April's market
■ Buyer registration was up 4% over April and 6% over the previous October
■ International buyer registration was up 13% over April and 11% over October 2010
■ Registrations for interior designers were up 9% over April and 6% over October 2010
"I'm particularly pleased with the response for international buyers and interior designers," Conley said. "We have worked hard to attract those buyers to market week, and our marketing efforts truly paid off at the October show."
Conley added that the rise in overall attendance is also good news for the local community. "An increase of the total number of people at the market means so much to the local economic engine."

An El Paso County jury on Monday acquitted a corporate trainer turned-medical marijuana grower on drug cultivation charges, ending a weeklong trial that brought daily demonstrations by medical marijuana advocates.
Elisa Kappelmann, 52, embraced attorney Rob Corry of Denver after the jury's verdict was read in court. Her supporters rocked in their seats, shouted "thank you" to the departing jurors and in some cases wept.
The 11-woman, 1-man jury deliberated for about 6 hours over two days.
Kappelmann, who left her job at Hewlett Packard in Colorado Springs to open a medical marijuana dispensary, had faced up to 12 years in prison on two felonies in connection with a May 2010 raid on a Colorado Springs warehouse where she leased an 800-square-foot suite as a temporary grow house.
Police said Kappelmann and her business partner were growing 99 marijuana plants without necessary documentation from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, which maintains a medical marijuana registry. Authorities also seized just more than a pound of dried marijuana and some marijuana cigarettes.
Her defense argued that Kappelmann had physicians' recommendations and caregiver forms for each of her 22 patients and was within her plant count even under the strictest interpretations of the laws. Under Colorado's medical marijuana amendment, growers are generally limited to six plants per patient, though the law recognizes that greater amounts are allowed if "medically necessary."
During the trial, Corry scoffed that police used a $7 million Department of Homeland Security surveillance plane to check the building's heat signatures when the suite was registered as Southern Colorado Medical Marijuana LLC with both the Department of Revenue and the city of Colorado Springs.
Police had also documented soaring electricity and saw marijuana plants inside before requesting use of the Great Falls, Mont.-based plane, which had been on loan in Denver at the time.
Speaking with reporters after the verdict, Corry called the trial a failed "political test case" and urged the District Attorney's Office to revisit its interpretation of medical marijuana laws.
"At the conclusion of all this, we're still wondering why the government spent taxpayer dollars on this case," he said, saying that courtrooms in El Paso County are "jampacked" with what he characterized as more pressing business.
Lead prosecutor Corey O'Neal said: "It's a hard case, and from where we stood, the defendant was not complying with the marijuana laws."
O'Neal, with other court hearings to attend to Monday, referred further questions to District Attorney Dan May, who couldn't be reached.
Kappelmann's supporters, who waved signs and shouted pro-marijuana slogans outside the courthouse each morning of the trial, said the jury's verdict was a vindication of claims Kappelmann was treated harshly by Colorado Springs police and the District Attorney's Office.
"The jury obviously didn't believe that she broke any laws, because she didn't break any laws," said Audrey Hatfield of Coloradans for Cannabis Patient Rights, or C4CPR, which helped organize the morning demonstrations. "This whole trial has obviously been a huge waste of taxpayer dollars."
Said Jason Warf of Colorado Springs Medical Cannabis Council: "I think it was justice served. But at the same time, it's money that could have been spent on real crime."
Kappelmann's business partner and boyfriend of 14 years, Don McKay, kept the business going during her prosecution and said the dispensary currently serves "hundreds" of patients.
"I've got some work to do," said Elisa Kappelmann, pledging to rejoin the business.
At least six other marijuana growers were also arrested in the raid that led to charges against Kappelmann. Those defendants – who worked for other marijuana businesses – all took plea agreements, court records show.

BEST GRINDHOUSE: Alpine Cinema, 6817 5th Ave.
The "Pardon Our Appearance" sign posted in the lobby of the Alpine — in all apparent perpetuity — promises future renovations. But with five small screens playing the latest mainstream fare for $9 ($7 for matinees — yes, matinees) this Bay Ridge dump need never change. The sound and projections systems, like the décor, are hopelessly out of date, but that just means you're spared the assault of "The Twenty" before your feature. And as a bonus, the bodega located kitty-corner will bag your canned beers individually and offer you a straw.

Cloud Computing to Transform Workflow Market According to InfoTrends Study
InfoTrends is pleased to announce availability of the Cloud-based Workflow and Infrastructure for Graphic Communications study. This research focuses on the rise of cloud computing in the graphic communications industry and provides recommendations for vendors and print providers who are looking to develop and implement cloud-based workflow solutions.
"This study demonstrates that vendors and PSPs are getting ready for the cloud", says Kaspar Roos, Director of InfoTrends' Production Workflow and Custom Communications Service. "We expect the cloud to fundamentally transform the workflow market and bring new levels of benefits for print providers, e.g. around automation, integration, and speed of deployment. The findings also show that PSPs are looking for solutions that help them further capitalize on the digital short-run printing opportunity and the emergence of profitable value-added services, such as print fulfillment and cross media marketing."
The research consists of three main parts. The first part looks at cloud infrastructures and provides insights and recommendations on the current state of the PSP's IT infrastructure, and the emerging Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) opportunity. The second part of the research focuses on production workflow and shows that there is clear demand not only for customer-facing systems to move to the cloud, but increasingly MIS and workflow management systems as well. The third component of the research consists of an evaluation of all key workflow vendors and their cloud strategies.
The research also contains insights for vendors that are looking to change or complement their on-premise, license solutions with Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) / subscription-based licensing. InfoTrends spoke with various distributors and resellers to get a perspective on how their role will change as the market migrates from licenses to subscription-based selling.
Finally, the research contains insights from cloud services providers and legal experts on legal implications that are associated with cloud deployment.

Lhermitte's Sign (and MS): What It Is and How to Treat It
MS Overview
MS Overview
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disorder that affects the central nervous system. Nerve fibers are covered in a protective coating called myelin in a normal nervous system. In someone with MS, the immune system attacks the nerve fibers, destroying the myelin and damaging the nerves. The damaged nerves can't relay messages as well as healthy nerves, which causes a variety of physical symptoms. Lhermitte's sign, also called Lhermitte's phenomenon, is a symptom often associated with MS.
Lhermitte's Sign: Origins
Lhermitte's Sign: Origins
Lhermitte's sign is a type of nerve pain. The phenomenon was first documented in 1924 by French neurologist Jean Lhermitte. The physician consulted on a case of a woman who complained of stomach pain, diarrhea, poor coordination on the left side of her body, and an inability to rapidly flex the right hand. These symptoms are consistent with what is known today as multiple sclerosis. The woman also reported an electric-like sensation in her neck, back, and toes. This strange symptom was later named Lhermitte's syndrome.
Lhermitte's sign is caused by "inappropriate" communication between the nerves that are no longer coated with myelin. Although Lhermitte's sign is common in MS, it's not exclusive to the disease. People who have spinal cord injuries or inflammation, such as cervical spondylitis or disc impingement, might also feel the shock-like symptoms of the condition. Severe vitamin B12 deficiency can also be a rare cause of Lhermitte's sign.
The main symptom of Lhermitte's sign is a shock-like sensation that travels down your neck and back. The spark of electricity is present in the arms, legs, fingers, and toes. The pain is strongest when you bend your neck forward, as if tucking your chin to your chest. The shock-like feeling is usually short and intermittent, although it can be quite powerful while it lasts.
Flare Triggers
Flare Triggers
The primary trigger for Lhermitte's sign is moving your neck the "wrong" way. Bending your head to your chest could trigger the prickly pain of an electrical shock. Twisting your neck in any unusual way may also produce symptoms. Other triggers can include being tired or overheated. MS symptoms, particularly if you have the relapsing-remitting form of the condition, often worsen in times of physical or emotional stress. Take care of yourself by getting plenty of sleep, staying cool, and monitoring stress levels to prevent an increase of symptoms.
Medications can treat the symptoms of Lhermitte's sign. Anti-seizure drugs help control the electrical impulses that run through your body to manage the pain. Your doctor might prescribe steroids if Lhermitte's sign is part of a general MS relapse. You might also take medication to relieve the burning discomfort of nerve pain that is common in people with MS.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is an effective treatment for some Lhermitte's patients. TENS produces an electrical charge of its own to reduce inflammation and pain for a number of medical conditions.
Your healthcare team may suggest several lifestyle modifications that may make you more comfortable. Because neck movements can exacerbate Lhermitte's, a brace can keep you from bending your neck too much. A physical therapist might suggest ways in which you can improve your overall posture to help prevent an attack. You might also benefit from deep breathing exercises and stretching exercises—under the supervision of your doctor, of course—to take the edge off the pain.
Incidence and Outcome
Incidence and Outcome
According to the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation (MSF), approximately 38 percent of MS patients will experience Lhermitte's sign at one time or another. Through a combination of medication, posture adjustments and monitoring, and relaxation techniques, people with MS may be able to keep Lhermitte's symptoms to a minimum.

The biggest safety concern for women in the military is actually not so much enemy fire as sexual attacks from fellow members of their own service. Because the crime is so underreported, it's impossible to say how many women suffer sexual assault while they're in uniform, but 3,192 cases were recorded in 2011. Allowing women to get the benefits of serving in combat positions won't make that threat worse. In fact, it might make things better because it will mean more women at the top of the military, and that, inevitably, will mean more attention to women's issues. Today women are on armed patrols and in fighter planes. But they can't hold about 200,000 jobs officially termed "combat," which often bring more pay and can provide a steppingstone for promotions. Women now make up almost 15 percent of the military. They've taken their posts with such seamless calm that the country barely noticed. More than 130 women have died and more than 800 have been wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan. We've come a long, sometimes tragic, heroic way.

Engadget just couldn't wait to get a white iPhone 4, so they took a page from Dr. Frankenstein and whipped up their own using a couple of "spare" white components. Unfortunately the mod now lacks a white Home button, the tiny mesh grille in the earpiece and covers on the camera and LED on the back, but it's as close as you're going to get to a white iPhone 4 this week. Unless you work at Colorware, I guess. One interesting note: the white of the parts they bought is a little warmer than the 4′s dock, so Engadget (and I) guess Apple is getting that just right before they release the thing into the wild. Yes, Apple and resident chief designer Jon Ive are that particular about color.

Leica X2 review
In what is becoming a very competitive and overlapping market, the Leica X2 stands out as a high-quality, well-built camera, with a sharp lens and good image quality at low sensitivities. Sadly, however, the X2 has in many ways arrived a few years too late. Cameras such as the Fujifilm FinePix X100 will provide strong competition, and many photographers will instead opt for a compact system camera.
The lack of any finesse to the camera's buttons and on-screen menu is a little strange given the high quality of the rest of the body, and the screen is also looking somewhat dated. However, the accessory socket and optional EVF are very welcome improvements over the previous X1.
Lacking many additional features, the Leica X2 is a very conservative camera, designed and built for photographers who want the convenience of a digital model but with the high quality of a professional film compact. However, with such a high price tag, many may look elsewhere for a better screen, or the convenience of a 24-70mm zoom lens.
Leica X2 - Key features
The internal pop-up flash reveals itself from the top plate on the left-hand side of the camera and is accessed via this switch.
Accessory port
There is currently only one accessory for this port, the Leica EVF-2.
As well as the electronic and optical viewfinders for the Leica X2, there is a range of other accessories. The most notable of these are the handgrip, which costs around £100, and the brown leather Ever Ready case, which is around £150.
HDMI port
On the side of the Leica X2 is an HDMI port. This allows an HDMI cable to be connected so that images can be viewed via a compatible television screen.
Leica quotes that the Lithium-Ion battery supplied with the X2 should be able to take around 450 exposures from a full charge. I found this figure to be accurate, and would feel comfortable taking the X2 away for a weekend without needing the charger.
As well as being compatible with SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards, the Leica X2 also has 110MB of built-in memory.
Control dial
This wheel rotates around the control buttons to allow menus and images to be quickly scrolled.
The hotshoe not only allows the use of Leica-compatible flashguns, but also holds the optical and electronic viewfinders.

Utah State's women's team was led by Amber Judd who finished second in both the 100 and 400 meter hurdles as the Aggies finished in third-place finish at the 2006 Western Athletic Conference Championships here late Saturday.
For Utah State's men, the second-place finish is its best since winning back-to-back Big West Conference championships in 2002 and 2003, while the women's third-place finish is its best since placing second at the 2001 Big West Championships.

"We came over with the intention of competing with Boise State (on the men's side) and Louisiana Tech (on the women's side) and we did jus that," said USU head coach Gregg Gensel. "Overall, I thought we competed about as well as we could have, and to finish second on the men's side and third on the women's side is a great accomplishment."
Smith, a junior from Pleasanton, Calif., won his first-ever championship as he posted a time of 10.51 in the 100 meters, while Silcock, a freshman from Arco, Idaho, cleared 6-08.25 in the high jump to post the win. Ball, a senior from Logan, Utah had placed second in the 5,000 meters in each of the last two years at the Big West Championships before winning the WAC title with a time of 14:39.15.
Other Aggie men to perform well on Saturday included Cedric Young, who placed third in the 200 meters (21.65), Ben Kessen, who placed third in the 1500 meters (3:53.51), Mike McConkie, who placed third in the high jump (6-05), Scott Bell, who placed fourth in the 110 meter hurdles (14.61), and Nick Karren, who placed fourth in the 400 meter hurdles (52.88).

The Beecher Hill House team made our day absolutely stress free and provided us with an entire weekend to remember. I was able to breath and enjoy my day as well as my family thanks to them. Beautiful location and Fabulous service.
Wedding: 9/10/2011
When my husband first suggested Leavenworth for a mini destination wedding site I was not interested. Leaderhosen and bratwurst was not a part of my wedding dreams, but I promised him I would go check out the Beecher Hill House, just 5 mi from downtown and boy am I glad we did!
The Beecher Hill House has so much to rave about. The incredibly beautiful grounds, the charming house and guest rooms, the GREAT breakfast included in site fee, the AMAZING staff who handle EVERYTHING, and the diverse grounds for countless photo ops. I was recently married here and my husband and I couldn't be happier with our choice. One of the best things about the venue is the inclusive nature of having a wedding there, for no additional fee they will provide DJ, officiant, all tables, linens, etc, bartenders, parking attendants, wait staff, and most important Pam, the event coordinator who does so much more than you would expect. She truly made the day stress free for me AND my bridesmaid's and family as everyone knew she had everything handled. Their staff set up all decor and flowers, the completely led the rehearsal. I've been to venues with "coordinators" before for my sister's and friends' weddings, but never experienced this level of service. Truly amazing. Having the venue from Fri afternoon thru Sunday was also such a treat. No being pressed for time due another wedding or event booked that day. We live near Seattle and originally wanted to get married there somewhere with a view of the lake, but everything was either way over priced or they only allowed you 5 hours on site. We just left like a number, but at BBH we felt like our wedding was truly special. I can't tell you how nice it was to wake up Saturday morning at BBH, have a bridal brunch with all my bridesmaid's (for no additional cost!), get our hair/make up done on site, get dressed there and not have to get in a car to do the first look or take photos, it was so relaxing!
I could go on forever, but one more thing must be mentioned. You can take pics inside the old house if that is your thing, on the estate grounds all manicured and formal looking, near the fountain or waterfall feature, in the evergreens,in the pear orchards, in the vineyard, and the moon is stunning for photos!!! BBH truly made my wedding.
Wedding: 8/23/2008

I have to say that I have never known any other band at any level to play as constantly throughout the entire game as the NCCU band did Saturday. Did anyone else notice this? They didn't even seem to notice when their own team scored its lone TD. By the time the 3rd Q rolled aroud, it really started to get irritating.
The MRD plays before the game, at half, after the game and during timeouts but never when a play is taking place on the field. This is common courtesy and good sense, and if other bands are going to come into our house we should insist that they play by our house rules.

Producing more semen implies ensuring better fertility. This is obviously because sperm travels through semen, hence more semen also means more sperm, both in terms of quantity and quality. So, if you are seriously considering means to improve your rate of fertility, probably in view of becoming a father, or simply to boost your level of confidence with regard to sexual performance, you should think in terms of finding ways to boost your semen production and not just sperm volume. Before finding the right solution to start producing more semen, it is worth exploring the possible causes of low semen production. This will of course help you identify the best solution in relation to the cause, so that you may achieve your goal of producing semen faster and in larger quantities.

When the sun shines on it, it reflects the light beautifully. When I tap it, it has a lovely ring. Yet for me, this glass is already broken. When the wind knocks it over or my elbow knocks it off the shelf and it falls to the ground and shatters, I say, 'Of course.' But when I understand that this glass is already broken, every minute with it is precious."

The DBN Glossary was created last year in an effort to familiarize new members/visitors with the common parlance of the veterans/regulars here at Dawgs By Nature. Since that time, there have been many new people joining the site on a weekly basis. Therefore, I'd like to republish the glossary with a couple of additions to bring everyone up to speed and, hopefully, provide explanations for the lunacy at DBN. These terms pop up frequently, but may be strange to those who haven't been around long. As before, I'll list those I can think of now, and please feel free to add those that you personally like or that I've missed.
Buuuuuuuuuuuhhh - coined by Mooncamping, this is an expression of utter disbelief or confusion.
F@#% You, Go Root for Buffalo - an actual email sent by former GM Phil Savage to a disgruntled fan; used here to express displeasure with someone's comment, but mainly in a humorous and sarcastic manner.
Fairly Hog Certain - being fairly certain of something but in a much funnier way, thanks to a typo by Spidey, who wished to express fairly high certainty.
He's a WINNER - sarcastically used to ridicule the idea that team wins are good evidence of the quality and skill of a particular individual player.
This - simple reply to a comment or post that you like or agree with.
Freaky Flanker - coined, again, by Mooncamping; this is a WR who meets Moon's mysterious size/shape scale.
It's (whatever time) on (whatever date), and Braylon Edwards still sucks - used to periodically remind us of the time, the date, and that Braylon Edwards does in fact still suck.
I stopped reading at Mangina - proper response to any troll or "drive-by" poster who still thinks twisting Mangini into Mangina has some level of wit or humor.
For the love of Joe Thomas, I swear to Joe Thomas, etc. - examples of terms that substitute Joe Thomas for a deity, which has become common practice on the site (for obvious reasons).
Smokescreen - used to express any doubt or skepticism toward a move or decison of the Browns staff; also used to express doubt or skepticism toward comments of any other member of this site.
Maybe you should try Cleveland.com - Seemingly polite, yet sarcastic and scathing response to "drive-by", knucklehead posters who make mindless comments. Example: "WTF?!?! JACK F"N DALHUMME AT QB??!!?! HOCKGREIM MUST GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I"M DUN WITH THIS LOSER TEAM!!!!!; Reply by someone with a fully functioning brain: "Might I suggest you try Cleveland.com?"
Kotknus(sp) - Accepted and encouraged as the way to spell the surname of former Browns GM George Kokinis; mocks the endless errors made while trying to discuss said executive on this site. Current czar Mike Holmgren seems to be next in line with such spellings as: Holgram, Hokgram, Holngrem, Holngreim, etc.
Hoheini - One word term used to refer to the former Browns leadership trifecta of Holmgren (Ho), Heckert (he), and Mangini (ini); followed up the one word term of Mankok for Mangini (Man) and Kokinis (kok). A one word term for our current three-headed monster is still open for debate.
Here, here - Though painfully incorrect, this statement is rather common here at DBN. The proper phrase is "hear, hear", short for "hear him, hear what the speaker has to say", which is a way of agreeing with someone. Accepted forms here at DBN: here, here; hear, here; or here, hear. Not accepted: hear, hear.
Their, There, They're - Some people at DBN have trouble with these, which makes them all interchangeable on the site. Those people know who they are, and if their unhappy with what I'm saying, that's there problem. Let's not go they're.
"Prepare to be pancaked, you will now be pancaked, etc." - Spoken when a poster speaks ill of Joe Thomas in any way. These phrases remind the non-believer that Joe Thomas is all-knowing, all-seeing, and is aware of their lack of faith. He'll arrive momentarily to punish your sin with a syrupy explosion.
MIDAS (Mooncamping Idiosyncrasy Defense and Appreciation Society) - This "organization" is comprised of those members of DBN who have grown to love the unique viewpoints of a certain eccentric icon who frequently blows minds with his way of thinking and posting. If you aren't a member, beware: MIDAS is watching...
The Meteor - Someone once suggested that in a game between the Steelers and Ravens, the better option than either team winning would be having a meteor hit the stadium during the game. As you could imagine, this idea was strongly embraced here at DBN and has now broadened to become our way of dealing with no win situations. Ex) Comment - "Would you rather see the Steelers win and reach another Super Bowl or have the Jets win and have Braylon Edwards reach the Super Bowl?" Reply - "I'll take the meteor."
"Get off my lawn!" - Occasionally, those of us on DBN who may be more "seasoned" or "mature" than others find ourselves belly-aching over haircuts or music or braggadocio, or just about anything you damned hippies do these days. Rather than go into a long diatribe, during which we'll likely lose our train of thought anyway, we simply say "Get off my lawn." Now get off my lawn.
Hyperbole alert - any slight exaggeration here at DBN seems to get met with a response of "that's hyperbole." In fact, the word hyperbole has been typed on DBN more than any other word, ever. I've never been more irritated by anything in my entire life.
"I blame Art Modell." - Whenever something goes wrong, and there is blame to be laid, its usually safe to assume Art Modell had something to do with it, somehow. This is our simple way of reminding folks that Art Modell ruins everything.
Anyone feel free to offer any suggestions for addition to the glossary. As before, enjoy and have fun with this.

Creating the battery indicator
- Create a new movie clip
- In this movie clip create at least 2 layers:
- ActionScript: In this layer create as many keyframes as levels you want to display. (we will choose 8 levels in this example)
- Level: In the first frame, create a level bar corresponding to the lowest level.
In last frame create a keyframe and stretch your level bar to the highest level.
Then add a motion tween.
- Background: You can add a layer to put all your static components.
- Your timeline will be like this:
- In the first keyframe of the ActionScript layer add this code:
batMax = fscommand2("GetMaxBatteryLevel");
batLevel = fscommand2("GetBatteryLevel");
batSource = fscommand2("GetPowerSource");
batLevel2 = Math.ceil(batLevel*levelsNumber/batMax);
if (batSource == 0) { //If charger is not plugged
/* If charger is plugged, it will go to nextframe,
so the battery indicator will be animated.*/
- In all other keyframes add this code:
- Put this movie clip into your scene.
Adding a percentage indicator
If you want to add a text indicator:
- Create a new layer and add a dynamic text.
- Fill the var field to link it to a variable (assuming batText in this example)
- Add this code in the first keyframe of the ActionScript layer, just before the if statement:
batText = "Battery Level: " add math.ceil(batLevel*100/batMax) add "%";
Flash Lite 2.x recommended improvements
- {{Icode|call(1): This action was deprecated in favor of the function statement.
- [...]Level: " add Math.c[...]: Macromedia recommends that you use the + operator.

This post isn't really about the shocking news that not only am I being followed by "Postpartum Depression" on Twitter – and I'm not sure how I feel about that or why they are following me – or about how I'm also being followed by Kim Il Jong Reports (more on that below).
This post is really about Montessori school.
Fi spent much of her first year in Montessori school washing tables and arranging flowers.
My husband and I are over-educated Type A types so this concerned us.
"Why isn't she doing math?" my husband asked the teacher.
"Because she's three," was the teacher's reply, trying not to roll her eyes at him.
She told us to give it time, and to trust that her interest in practical life activities would in time lead her to the mathematical equipment. As we left, Fi gave a little wave from where she stood, arranging flowers.
Maria Montessori says to follow the child, and we believe in Maria so that's what we try to do even when it seems counterintuitive. We'd want to suggest different "work" for her to choose – like the Pink Tower, or the geography puzzles.
But at the end of that first year she began getting into stacking the pink tower, and working with the remarkable math equipment they have in Montessori classrooms.
Here we are seven years of AMI Montessori school later. A child spends 3 years in one classroom and has the same teacher for those 3 years. They're in mixed age groups (primary: 3 to 6 year olds, lower juniors: 6 to 9 year olds, and upper juniors: 9 to 12 year olds). Fi is now in her first year of the upper elementary, and I'm finding myself once again having a similar response ("fear of endless flower arranging") – only this time it's topics she's choosing for her reports.
Montessori elementary children do a lot of reports – first, they pick a topic. No one tells them what topic to pick, it's their own choice and it can be anything from cotton candy to quantum physics. Whatever. Then they find a partner who agrees to work on it with them, and together they research the topic, take notes, write a draft of the report, finalize it, illustrate it, and present it to the class. There's a lot of learning that goes on in this whole dynamic, not least of which is the "working with others" part – and I'm pretty impressed with it.
However, I'm having flashbacks of my "fear of flower arranging" days when Fi was a primary, because I've been wanting to see her choose "meatier" topics than the ones she has been choosing (skunks and honeybees). But Maria says to "follow the child" so I'm trying hard to keep my trap shut (although a few weeks ago I did suggest she do a report on The Spanish Inquisition, Catherine the Great, or one of the more current and despicable world despots – but then I dropped it, because in Montessori the parent is not technically supposed to meddle.)
I resigned myself to the idea that for her next report she would be featuring another cute rodent, like meerkats.
Last week she told me that she's chosen a topic for a new report.
Me: "Oh?"
Her: "Natural disasters."
Me: "Oh."
Her: "And the first natural disaster I'm going to start with is Kim Il Jong."
Ha! That's my girl.
I tweeted about Fi writing the report on Kim Il Jong, and within minutes Twitter alerted me that:
"Kim Il Jong Reports is now following you."
A little unsettling.
If she were doing a report on meerkats I don't think that "Meerkat Reports" would be following me, do you? No, because unlike the North Koreans, meerkats know how to mind their own beeswax.
I know it isn't really Kim Il Jong (who's dead) following me, or his freakish son, who isn't.
But I'm creeped out by the speed at which Twitter monitors free speech the way it does, how it spits us back out into the great, wide open where there are Kim Il Jong Reports to follow us dangerous mom-bloggers.
Linking up with Bruna at Bees With Honey.

An update on Abner. He is doing well after prostate cancer surgery Monday morning.
Doctors believe they were able to get rid of the cancer by removing the prostate. Abner says he had two milestones Tuesday, he got to change his gown and graduated to solid food.
Abner had many visitors, including Sammy Ortega, our news photographer. My mistake was that by 2 pm this afternoon, I hadn't gone by to see him today, or even called, so Abner called me.
"Did you forget I was in the hospital? She forgot. That's okay. If you want to know how I'm doing, call one of my friends. They all know. Alright," joked Abner.
Again, Abner is rapidly improving and entertaining anyone who will listen. I'm told he has already nominated 3 nurses for employee of the month.

Two Horses Removed From Owner
ROBSTOWN, TX – We have new information on the horses in Robstown that have been in the care of a veterinarian since they were found in bad condition last week.
Two horses were dead and 20 more appeared to be in bad condition. And yesterday another horse had to be put down.
This morning the fate of the other horses laid in the hands of Justice of the Peace Judge Robert Gonzalez.
Also in court was Director of Robstown Animal Control Jason Garcia, along with the horses' owner, Sam Ruegg.
Garcia told us that out of the 20 animal cruelty cases he has worked, this one is the worst he has seen involving horses.
Ruegg says the reason he wasn't able to take proper care of the horses was because he had financial troubles for about a week, but he promised the court he was now able to take better care of them.
The court decided that two young females will go to Habitat for Horses, a non profit organization that takes care of horses, and two older horses would have to be put down because of their age and condition.
Garcia had this to say of the horses that had to be put down, "I think if they had better care, vet care, feeding regiment, they could of lived a much better life."
As for the other 15 horses, they will get to stay out on Ruegg's property for now, but under some strict conditions.
Ruegg is on a six month probation to prove he can take care of the horses. This was decided because the veterinarians said the horses were too weak to be moved.
The conditions of this probation include; monthly visits by a veterinarian, random visits by animal control, Ruegg will have to give the judge a weekly receipt of all hay and feed bought for the horses, and training the horses so the veterinarian can take a proper look at them.
We tried to speak to Ruegg about what happened in court today, but he told us he had no comment.
Garcia was hoping the horses would be moved, but if this is what's best for the horses then he tells us he is happy.
Garcia says, "The main goal is to make sure these horses are in good condition to where they can live the rest of their lives healthy."
And Garcia promises that he will be checking up on the horses every day to make sure they are getting healthier.
The Robstown Police Department is still investigating to see if Ruegg will face any criminal charges.
(Note – This is a case which our investigator has been working for a long time. We will continue to keep a very close eye on the owner and will return to court with him if he does not follow the rules set by the Judge – Jerry)
Habitat for Horses is a 501.c.3 nonprofit equine protection organization supported solely by donations. We have around 200 donkeys and horses under our care, plus one ornery, old mule. Most of them are here because law enforcement removed them from their previous owner. Our ability to rehabilitate and rehome them comes from the financial support of people like you. Please support us by making a donation for the horses we all serve. Click HERE to donate

By GENE PATTERSON6 News Anchor/Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - In 1969, legendary broadcaster Walter Cronkite declared that Chattanooga was the dirtiest city in America. That designation spurred Chattanooga to clean up its act. And over the past 40 years, it certainly has, so much so that Knoxville, for many of those years, was left in its dust. But where is Knoxville in that competition today?For the past 20 years, Chattanooga seemed to be taking the lead.The Scenic City seemed to have everything Knoxville did not: a vibrant downtown spurred by the Aquarium and Imax Theater, a riverfront with its pedestrian bridge, a mecca of activity, and along its borders, miles of greenways and bike trails.Shalin Tejani, the CFO of a plastics manufacturing company, recently opened a ribbon factory.
He is an example, we're told, of the stock of young entrepreneurs filling the city. "There's a tremendous number of young ideas, young business people looking to grow as entrepreneurs and you're already in an environment where everyone scratches each other's backs. Everyone's helping each other. The free flow of ideas is tremendous," Tejani said. "We are a city full of energy."Over the past decade or so, Chattanooga has made a lot of best lists - Best City to Live, Most Affordable, Best Place to be an Entrepreneur, which, when you think about it, is pretty important, because entrepreneurs means business and that means jobs.
"It didn't take too long as the renaissance of downtown began to emerge that you began to see younger people moving back to the city, other young people moving here from other places, and there began to be a new spirit, new excitement, a new enthusiasm when you walk around Chattanooga today and talk to people. Everybody is excited about their city," said writer Dean Arnold.Arnold, author of Old Money, New South, the Spirit of Chattanooga, suggests that youth may be driving Chattanooga's current growth, but it was Chattanooga's elite old money that started it."There was an old Southern aristocracy group of elite leaders that really wanted to see this city turn around and so they pooled their resources and put their foundation money together and started working with the rest of the community and a lot of things happened," Arnold said. And it's still happening."I think the next step is figuring out, 'OK, we've come this far. We came up with this plan and really succeeded and that goes to the all the hard work put into it. So now what do we do?' What's this next generation going to do and how are we going to continue to grow the city. Or at least nurture what we have?" Tejani said.So that's Chattanooga, but what about Knoxville? Well, it turns out the rivalry did finally benefit the city. Knoxville, like Chattanooga, did a visioning plan and the result was a renewed effort to bring back downtown.A visit to Market Square just about any warm evening will attest to the success of that effort."The new restaurants have brought us down and the exciting atmosphere down here with all the different events," said local Richard Birchfield."I like it because it's so festive and there's a lot of people and it's easy for us to bring our baby," Akiko Birchfield said.And it wasn't an aquarium or big idea that got it going. "Knoxville talked about a lot of big things, but when it started happening, it was organic. It was a lot of little thing coming together," said writer and historian Jack Neely.Neely loves Knoxville's downtown."There are a lot of things that Chattanooga did first, but we're doing it better now," Neely said. The truth is, the two communities both have a lot going for them.
Knoxville is about 8 percent less expensive to live in than Chattanooga.
But Chattanooga has a higher per capita income at $19,689 per year, compared to Knoxville's $18,171.
If you're looking for a glaring difference, it's in the area of job growth. Between 2000 and 2009, Chattanooga's job growth tracked at 13.25 percent. Knoxville's job market grew by 3.3 percent.
But I will give Knoxville one edge - only we have Neyland Stadium. And when the Big Orange is winning, there is no better place to be than Knoxville.

In the past few days i've been bored and I have been looking through the UFC website, and I came across a few fighters who are still listed on the UFC roster but haven't fought in a long time. This got me to thinking about a bunch of fighters who I always thought either had potential, been a top start at one point or just a fighter that I have always liked, but I haven't heard from in a while. If anyone has any updates if these fighters are still active and training, injured, retired, or whatever the case may be, that would be very cool to know.
1. Renato Verissimo (8-5) Notable wins over Carlos Newton
Hasn't fought since 9/15/07 (2 years, 4 months)

This Green Up Day, fifth-grader Emily Frazier and a handful of her Berlin Elementary classmates picked up litter from school grounds. This year, Vermont's 43rd statewide spring cleaning, the kids have extra incentive.
"We're trying to raise money to get a new playground for our school," Frazier said.
"The jungle gyms and everything the kids play on needs to be updated. I don't think we've had an update in 30 years on this playground," said parent Jennifer Lawson.
"Really it's not that much fun for us at recess and people aren't getting enough exercise," Frazier said.
Parents are overseeing the effort, but the school principal says these youngsters are doing almost all the leg-work. The precocious kids wrote letters to businesses seeking support. And businesses, like Twin City Subaru, are pitching in while helping residents pitch out. For every pound of trash collected, the car dealership will match the cost of removal with a donation to the kids' cause.
"We're hoping to raise it all. We need to get to $18,000 and we're pretty close to that. We've got a pretty aggressive goal," Lawson said.
The students already picked out two pieces of equipment, and the principal says if the funding materializes quickly, they could be in place before the end of the school year. Between a bottle drive, sponsorships, and turning trash into cash, they should reach that mark soon.

I generally only wrote in them after high school when the gonig got tough and I needed an outlet, before I found healthy ways to release before my breaking point. I've read through some of the old journals. I still can't read some of my darker entries without a trigger event, especially the ones around my almost suicide attempt. I see patterns, there and here. Those are usually the kick in the ass I need to get going on fixing something else.

In a strong year, a Top 10 feels like a pair of golden handcuffs: It's unseemly to complain about too much greatness, but narrowing the list to an arbitrary decimal can feel like cutting of limbs. So Time's TV critic James Poniewozik did four Top 10 lists, including one for new shows, one for his favorite episodes, and a separate one commemorating the best moments from Breaking Bad's immortal home stretch. (Should go without saying, but naturally, if you haven't finished Breaking Bad, do not click that last link. Just don't.) We'll leave most for readers to peruse on their own, but here's his Top of the Pops:
1. Enlightened. "At a time when ambitious TV focused mostly on ruthless men breaking bad, this was an unsparing but hopeful look at how much work it is to be good."
2. Breaking Bad. "[T]his show's ending shone an unsparing light on Walter's sins and their repercussions. This modern-day drug Western died with its boots on."
3. Orange Is the New Black. "This racially, sexually, and economically diverse series picked up where TV crime stories usually end; each of its jailbirds has a song worth hearing."
4. Game of Thrones. "Above all, though, GoT has emerged as TV's best drama about politics and power... a complex study of power and leadership -- and the difference between the two."
5. The Good Wife. "[A] thrilling legal and political war in which the good guys are not entirely good, the bad guys are not entirely bad, and the audience -- getting to watch a grown-up drama at its peak -- wins either way."
6. Bob's Burgers. "Fresh and funny, this show has found its voice, even when that voice comes out of a toilet."
7. Rectify. "Like other strong dramas in 2013 (The Bridge, Broadchurch), this haunting drama explored not just a crime but its endless reverberations."
8. The Americans. "Their identities are fake, their emotions are real -- and the wigs look fabulous."
9. Mad Men. "This drama's sixth season was not as explosive as some past years. But this long into its run, it still manages to be the most genuinely surprising drama on TV"
10. Orphan Black. "[S]tylish, relentless, tense, and twistily plotted, it was the smartest and freshest new work of TV sci-fi since Battlestar Galactica."
Nia | December 5, 2013 5:42 PM
Since Breaking Bad, all the the other shows look boring.
TonyL | December 5, 2013 12:15 PM
Agree with Stephen... Don't get how BB is anything to crow about. Archer is much funnier, sharper. That slot should have been better filled with "The Returned" (Sundance French version), Top of the Lake, Community (even bad is better than most sitcoms), Southpark (if you need an aminmated series, still sharp), Southland (brilliant final season) and the best show on TV... Justified!
Stephen Wise | December 5, 2013 10:31 AM
The fact that this list includes "Bob's Burgers" disqualifies the entire thing.

There is no documentation. But you can open it in Notepad or an XML editor and edit it. If you look to edit it for some specific products I might be able to help. BTW. I replied on your email.

On Friday, Tampa's Party Pirate 102.1 received a double whammy from the FCC.
The day's issue of the Federal Register included a terse announcement from the agency that Leslie "Doug" Brewer and his two-way radio business had been fined $10,000 for allegedly selling an "unauthorized FM radio transmitter" above the legal Part 15 power limit. According to the FCC, an undercover agent placed the order and made the purchase.
Also on March 3, Doug Brewer found out that a Federal court ruled in favor of the FCC in its seizure of two-way radio equipment stemming from the November 1997 raid of his station. The government gets to keep thousands of dollars worth of equipment not remotely related to FM piracy as "spoils" from their military-style raid on his home.
Doug's been quite active lately - just a little more than three months ago, he put Tampa's Party Pirate back on the air, this time using more than one transmitter.
He's been filling orders for various equipment since he was cleaned out, slowly building back up his clientele. He's felt the pressure from the FCC ever since first contact, but even these new events don't seem to slow him down.
Doug Brewer's official statement about this latest broadside from the FCC is a tirade against a corrupt, cumbersome system of power and government. He has some valid points. In light of the convoluted LPFM ruling it recently released, and the Congressional and legal attack currently ongoing, it seems just like anything may be possible. The wind seems to be blowing both ways.
In private, though, Brewer boils it all down to two words: "Nazi bastards."
He's already filed a formal reply to the fine, which he believes constitutes entrapment. He doesn't have much hope of seeing it just go away, though.
For those who might have ordered from L.D. Brewer's Two-Way Radio in the past, or have current orders pending, try not to sweat it. Doug says he burns all his orders once they're filled and automatically deletes any e-mail correspondence. One can only hope you're safe in the cyber age...
From the front lines, Doug has this message: "NOW is the time to take to the air. There will be no LPFM anyhow so piracy needs to escalate."
It's deja vu all over again. Let's hope the agents knock politely this time around.
Brewer Speaks Out
I guess I never wanted to write this message. As foolish as I am, a always assumed that because I lived in the U.S. of AmeriKa, I would be assured at least some of the constitutional guarantees, which include the right to a fair trial. However, on the 22nd of February, a Nazi Federal Court Judge in the Tampa area granted the FCC a 'summary judgment' against my equipment that was stolen in a pre-dawn home invasion, almost two years and six months ago. But the fact still remains, there is no equal protection, no right to trial, and certainly no justice. The FCC, operating as paid protection for the NAB member station that complained that we were confusing listeners, has ultimately won their spoils. It appears to most that (people) are innocent until proven guilty, but this is rarely the case. And, when the 'people' are merely the "claimants for the property" in the case of FCC raids, there is no question that the Government feels that they have the right to be police, judge, jury, and executioner. Yet, I believed that somehow, I would win the right to a fair trial before a jury of my peers. I was a FOOL. The rest is a matter of record.
People, PLEASE don't be FOOLED !!
1. The FCC is appointed, and it's sole function is to auction off the PEOPLE'S airwaves to the highest bidder. Never fall for the lie that the FCC has any consideration for the rights of any AmeriKan citizen, unless he's the one paying lobby money from his corporation to the FCC through the liars loop in the Kongress. The FCC's phony enforcement bureau acts outside the law, and uses coercion for political power to carry out it's illegal operations. Their reign over the people and their airwaves will continue until they suffer collateral damages. The time is near. Don't be a fool!
2. LPFM isn't likely to ever come to fruition. The NAB is fighting tooth and nail to prevent the issuance of ANY licenses. Certain greedy people in the Government will be sure that licenses are not issued. If you really believe that the FCC had good intentions when issuing the order on LPFM, why do you suspect that they excluded regular citizens from licensing eligibility? Uncle Tom Kennard is lying to you, and it has been proven in the past that he will roll over for money. Don't be a fool!
3. The FCC wants to make people believe that radio 'pirates' are criminals. Although much success has come through the exposure of 'Pirate' radio operations in the protected (liars) media, the intent of the FCC was never to allow the people to have a voice, and the so called LPFM service was simply a reaction to pressure exerted upon them by citizens that actually believed that the FCC was 'doing a good thing ' by proposing the service. If you were one of the people who commented, or responded to comments that were issued in this proceeding, you were wasting your time. Even though the FCC ruled in favor of a new service, they promptly excluded former 'pirates' and for that matter, individual citizens from partaking of the new 'service'. Kennard is a liar. The commissioners are liars. They are ALL on the take. Don't be a fool!
4. The courts are part of the scam. If you believe that persons such as Lonnie Kobres should be convicted for operating unlicensed radio stations, and countless dozens of others should have their homes and businesses raided all for the sake of corporate protection, then you are morally defective! Unless your job depends upon the continued operation of a 'licensed' liars media outlet, you couldn't possibly with a clear conscience condone the actions of the FCC and the Criminal Courts that carry out such atrocious actions against proactive citizens. But, if you work for one of these liars media concerns, you already know that your days are numbered. You will be forced out of the comfortable position you now hold to make way for the new, younger, and more powerful (ignorant) replacement, that eagerly awaits the opportunity to place the golden corporate phallus into his mouth. It's not to late to leave your doom. Open your own business, and operate outside the corporate structure! Don't be a fool!
It's time now to take back what we already have. If you are expecting the FCC to issue (you) a license in the near future, don't be a fool. Do what's right. Get yourself a transmitter and go on the air. Express to your listeners the fact that the government is based soley (sic) upon greed and the end is surely exceeding the means. Lets face it, a LPFM 100 won't do much more than piss off the local community, and anything less will only affect that special person in the next house or two. A real 'pirate' station on the other hand could potentially spread the message to communities that need your support. Your voice could become the lifeline to those already oppressed by the schlock delivered by the corporate radio outlets. The truth you deliver could change the lives of many, and the attitudes of some. Either way, you would have done something positive, and not believed that the government is really here to help you!! Do yourself and your community a favor. Get on the air now, and DON'T be a FOOL !!
Views expressed are related on behalf of Doug Brewer for the use of those too stupid to stand up and do something to protect our freedom and future at any cost.

"The problem is we have to sell it to our distributor. They pick up the beer from my brew pub, they take it back to their warehouse and then they bring it back to one of my restaurants. When in fact, I could just do that myself," said Gellerman.
Because the law doesn't allow Gellerman and other craft brewers to self-distribute, it would be illegal to sell beer from her brewery in Custer at her restaurant in Sioux Falls.
"When I sell it to my distributor, it's at a rate that we set on price and then he has to sell it back to me at a higher rate, which I totally understand. That's part of the process and I don't want to buy my beer back at a higher rate and therefore goes any sense of profit for me," said Gellerman.
Gellerman says more and more breweries are opening in South Dakota. And for these small business owners, being able to self-distribute would help them be more independent and grow their businesses.
"And its basically for promotional opportunity to be able to take your beer to an event, or to your other restaurant or to a location and be able to self promote who you are without having to use a distributor. We are not large enough for a distributor to really pay attention to us. We can't produce that much," said Gellerman.
Gellerman says all she's asking for is a small amount.
"If you have 5,000 barrels or if you have 10,000 barrels, that's such a minute amount of beer that we don't even produce that much at my brewery at this point," said Gellerman.

Downtown streets are filled with red, white and blue Tribe
fans. Local restaurants are packed inside and out. Even though the rain was a problem and
threatened to be all day, even as the clouds broke up, there was optimism on Rally Alley.
The beauty of opening day is that it can be anything you
want it to be.
From a big time party, complete with parking lot keg bowling to a family affair complete with a special day
off of school for the kids.
"This is a Cleveland tradition we have- good baseball
tradition, good sports. We love Cleveland
sports. I'm a Browns fan and Indians fan and a Cavs fan," says one Cleveland sports enthusiast.
As they stood in the rain waiting for the gates to open
for many this is ultimately about baseball, about little kids growing into baseball
And hope, always the hope The Tribe will take care of
unfinished business.
"I'm really impressed with what the Dolan family is
doing. I like what they're doing and I like what Francona is doing," says an excited Indians fan.
