If the Knicks draft this guy, we need to draft somebody named Calvin so I can call them "Calvin and Hobbes", even though this guy isn't named Hobbes.
Or as I've seen him called: Darrington 'The F--k HWSNBN and all these HWSNBN posts' Hobson. More on Hobson after the jump.
Remember the 2010 draft? Guess what, it's BEFORE July 1st, so let's take around the interwebs and check out what people say about Hobson:
Fun Facts:
-He attended 4 more Highschools then me (that's 5 if you're curious).
-Had to go through JUCO before getting picked up by New Mexico Univ.
-Had this to say about having to go through JUCO in this article:
-His nickname is 'Butta', picked up from playing in Houston. Do with that what you will.
|w/o Shoes
|Height w/shoes
|Standing Reach

|Bench Press
|Lane Agility
|3/4 Court Sprint
|Class Rank
|6' 5.25"
|6' 6.5"
|6' 9.25"
|8' 8.5"
-Height and wingspan are a bit small for a swing man, doesn't show crazy hops, but nothing that's a real red flag here.
Stat line
-His AST/G ranks him 2nd amoung all SF's in 2010, only behind Evan Turner (who really was more a PG for Ohio St.). Considering there's not a whole lot of New Mexico Univ. ball on TV on the east coast, I have to assume he played a point forward role. Even after adjusting for pace and minutes played (draftexpress link), he still ranks 2nd.
-FT% at 65%?! Anyway you spin that, it's not good. Not a bad 3pt% though.
Game Logs
Here are the highest profile teams the Lobos played this season: (pts/reb/asts)
-Cali (ranked 25 at the time before Pac-10 went into the shit hole): 22/15/3
-Dayton (10-3 at the time): 15/8/7 with 5 steals
-UNLV (13-2, main rival in the MWC along with BYU): 14/7/4
-BYU (20-1, ranked #10 coming in): 5/14/4 on 1-11 shooting (Jimmer had 27 pts)
-BYU (26-1, ranked #11 coming in): 20/14/4 with 7 TO's and a block in the closing seconds to secure the MWC Title (Jimmer had 7 pts)
-Montana (1st round of NCAA): 11/11/6; Hobson hurt his wrist in the beginning of the game
-Washington (in the NCAA tourney, their loss was a blow out): 11/9/2 on 5-11 shooting (Quincy Pondexter went for 18)
Now what does this tell us? It tells us he can play up to par with the competition he's facing, including beating BYU twice this year. It also tells us he's rarely had to play against an elite swing man in the NCAA, so it's a bit hard to guage where he stands against some of th best.
The one time he went up against a potential NBA swingman (Pondexter), his whole team got blown out. Hobson was also sporting a left wrist injury from the 1st round. Aside from him and his teammate Dairese Gary, there's really no one else on the team that can provide offense.
So my main take away is he was more Pipeen to Gary's Jordan if you will. Hobson has demonstrated over and over in all these game logs is that he's not going to take the game over offensively, but more in all the little things, passing, help defense, rebounding, etc. He's not going to overwhelm and put his team on his back, but more of a 'glue' player, in the Shane Battier mode.
Scouting Report:
DraftExpress Breakdown-Left-handed, Hobson is a very good ball-handler for his size, looking very comfortable attacking opponents off the dribble from the perimeter in one on one situations. He has excellent footwork and timing on his drives, and is a pretty fluid all-around player, displaying a high skill level and advanced scoring instincts. Although his first step is not very quick, Hobson has a knack for getting his man off-balance through shot-fakes and hesitation moves, and does a great job initiating (and exaggerating) contact to get to the free throw line.
Once putting the ball down, Hobson has very good court vision to find the open man, as evidenced by the 5+ assists per-40 he currently averages. He shoulders a heavy load for New Mexico offensively, but is an unselfish player who does a good job of getting others involved, sporting an advanced basketball IQ.
While Hobson does a good job creating scoring opportunities for himself and others, he isn't quite as effective at finishing plays. His shooting percentages from inside the arc leave a lot to be desired at just 43%, a reflection of his struggles finishing around the rim (due to his lack of explosiveness) in traffic, coupled with his often-poor shot-selection.
Hobson loves to pull up off the dribble in the mid-range area, but is not particularly effective when doing so. He makes a number of head-scratching decisions over the course of pretty much every contest he plays in, as evidenced by his high turnover rate. It's a different story in catch and shoot situations, though, as Hobson is fairly effective with his feet set, knocking down 38% of his 3-point attempts this season, albeit on a relatively small number of attempts. The paltry percentage he converts from the free throw line (62%), though, is likely an indication that he still has work to do on his jump-shot.
Defensively, Hobson puts a solid effort in and appears to be fairly smart, but is unfortunately limited by his average physical tools. Spending heavy minutes at the power forward position, Hobson has problems guarding the perimeter, as he does not possess great lateral quickness. On the plus side, Hobson does a very good job crashing the defensive glass, coming up with a solid 7.4 defensive boards per-40 minutes pace adjusted.
Chad Ford on Bill Simmons' Podcast in March
Chad Ford- "Has a little bit of a Penny Hardaway feel to him...Kind of does everything for them, I'm not in love with him, but he's not that explosive athletically...not that far away from Evan Turner"
-Sounds to me like a homeless man's version of TMac (Pre 2008 version). Also sounds a bit sketchy that he while he has a high basketball IQ, he also makes a number of questionable plays. Also, while he's not a very good pull up shooter, he can move off the ball and do 'catch and shoot' farely well.
Here's him talking:

I typed in New Mexico Vs. BYU hoping for some highlights from that game, this is what I got:

By Thea Lamkin
Len Materman, an environmental-policy specialist, has been named the new executive director of the San Francisquito Creek Joint Powers Authority (JPA).
Mr. Materman emerged as the strongest of three candidates, all of whom were interviewed by both the JPA board and a select citizens' committee, according to a JPA official.
A San Carlos resident, Mr. Materman will start his job in early August, and will be the JPA's second executive director. He replaces Cynthia D'Agosta, who joined the JPA in 2000 and who resigned in mid-March to become director of the environmental group, Committee for Green Foothills as of May 1.
Mr. Materman currently is a program adviser for the Stanford branch of the Center of Ecotourism and Sustainable Development, a bi-coastal nonprofit organization headquartered in Washington, D.C.
Involved in public policy for more than 20 years, he was director of government affairs at the University of California, Berkeley, before working in the Clinton administration as an adviser to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) on pre-disaster planning and environmental issues. During that period, he headed two White House task forces dealing with community environmental planning.
"The JPA is a very strong organization, but it also has a lot of potential in which to grow," Mr. Materman said. "I think the public is very interested in seeing results."
The small agency, run by a board of representatives from neighboring cities and counties, is working to develop a comprehensive flood-protection and environmental-improvement project for areas affected by the creek, which has a lengthy history of flooding.
Heyward Robinson, who represents Menlo Park and acts as the JPA's vice-chair and secretary, said Mr. Materman's extensive and relevant experience makes him especially well-suited for the position.
"I think he's going to bring a fresh set of eyeballs and neurons to this job," Mr. Robinson said.
Mr. Materman also is familiar with watercourses: He founded America's Rivers Communities Inc. in 2000 and served on the board of Friends of Cordilleras Creek in San Mateo County.
He more recently served on the Flooding, Land-Use and Creeks Ad Hoc Advisory Committee (FLUC) for San Carlos, where he unsuccessfully ran for city council in 2005.
He will confront new challenges in "the local California rules that all of us have to put up with," Mr. Robinson said.
In the past, the JPA has struggled to secure federal and local funding for the long-term studies and flood-control projects it seeks to implement.
Mr. Robinson hopes Mr. Materman's experience will be instrumental in "helping us communicate issues and challenges, both to the public and government officials."
"I think Len will be a forceful, effective advocate for that," Mr. Robinson said.
Mr. Materman is joining the JPA at a time when the board is attempting to put some critical projects in motion, said Palo Alto Vice-Mayor Peter Drekmeier, who represents Palo Alto on the JPA board. Mr. Drekmeier said tasks include flood-damage-reduction studies and "early implementation projects" that have suffered from lack of funding.
"We have a lot to do in the near future," he said. "We need to get started sooner rather than later, and make sure it's compatible with a long-term fit."
Thea Lamkin is with the Palo Alto Weekly.

Work is scheduled to begin Wednesday on a construction project to repair and resurface a 1.14-mile section of Route 394 in Biglerville.
PennDOT spokesman Mike Crochunis said drivers may encounter single-lane traffic and parking restrictions in the work zone on weekdays between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
Crochunis said crews will repair the following roads in preparation for resurfacing this summer:
- Route 394, locally known as Hanover Street, in Biglerville and Butler Township;
- Hanover Street in New Oxford from the borough line to the traffic circle at U.S. Route 30;
- Carlisle Street in New Oxford from the traffic circle at U.S. Route 30 to just north of Drummer Drive in Oxford Township; and
- Berlin Road in New Oxford from the intersection with Carlisle Street to just south of Billerbeck Street in Oxford Township.
Curb cut work under the $1.14 million contract began last fall. Resurfacing is scheduled to be completed by the end of August.

Between the billion shots of the sky, sunsets and fewer sunrise, all can be encapsulated in a few words - "you had to be there." Until our photo reproduction can fill the void of infinite space (the visible universe is finite, I know) it will never suffice. It'll get better, but until then we will still adore the photographs that capture the color, the clarity and the composure (mine sorely lack, taken with a phone from a moving vehicle, but you get the idea). I'll still be taking and viewing these photos, but it won't be the same as that's what closing our eyes are for, to imagine yourself there. Remember the last sunset you truly watched, who you were with, alone and contemplating or together and contemplating. That is, until the stars come out.
I sipped my coffee, checking to see if she was awake. Not yet. I didn't want to disturb her. She sleeps so soundly, but I couldn't even hear her. I couldn't see her either. Her alarm must have not gone off, or, more likely, she hit the 'snooze' while somewhere in between dreams. I was a little sad, the second day in a row where I could see her before leaving to work. I finished my coffee, toast with nutella, and brushed my teeth vigorously.
On my drive to work I noticed something peculiar. It was clear out, the sun was shining, and there was a full moon. This was quite rare for a fall day tucked away in the northwest. She was probably already feeling the heat. That's when I noticed it, the lake. I drove past it everyday, but today, it was different. In the glow of the morning, quite cool as it were, the lake met the sun with a burst of steam, not fog, it shimmered like fire. I had to share this moment. And that's when she called.
Her timing was always impeccable, and just when I wanted to share this rare sight, she was there, telling me things that seems like all my life, how storied, but also as if in this instant, it was all coming together. And we shared these moments, together, physically or not. Yet our time apart would be short lived, our time together would be life.

How to configure a front-end apache server and save valuable I.P.s
Many of you may already know how to do this, however for those that are stuck with the need to redirect website through one I.P. that then need to route to unique servers or VM's on your internal network that each have their own private I.P. here is one way to do this.
We will use an example of three different servers, FrontEnd, BackEndA, BackEndB
Nothing special has to be configured in the FrontEnd apache2.conf or httpd.conf.
I choose to put a virtual_web_router file in 'sites-enabled' and in this file I have a pretty simple configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName *.siteone.ca ServerAlias *.siteone.ca ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass / http://172.16.1.181/ #This is for BackEndA ProxyPassReverse / http://172.16.1.181/ <Proxy http://172.16.1.181> Allow from 172.16.1.181 </Proxy> </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.sitetwo.com ServerAlias sitetwo.com ProxyPreserveHost On ProxyPass / http://172.16.0.110/ #This is for BackEndB ProxyPassReverse / http://172.16.0.110/ <Proxy http://172.16.0.110> Allow from 172.16.0.110 </Proxy> </VirtualHost>
#siteone.com <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot /var/www/siteone ServerName www.siteone.com ServerAlias siteone.com <Directory "/var/www/siteone"> allow from all Options +Indexes </Directory> </VirtualHost>
#sitetwo.com <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot /var/www/sitetwo ServerName www.sitetwo.com ServerAlias sitetwo.com <Directory "/var/www/sitetwo"> allow from all Options +Indexes </Directory> </VirtualHost>
This will work through a Firewall NAT too.
Please be aware that I did not include security considerations in this mini-how-to so you need to be vigiliant in hardening both front and back end servers.
Hope this helps.

Mahoning County Sheriff's Office detectives said Friday a mentally impaired Ellsworth man who was missing in July was really running away from abuse he suffered in his sister's home.
Detective Pat Mondora said 24-year-old Scott McCrory told detectives his sister's husband would discipline him by shooting him with a BB gun or blow-dart gun. Mondora said McCrory told his story after his father took him to St. Elizabeth Health Center to be examined after he had run away from home.
"It kind of made us mad," Mondora said of hearing McCrory's story.
Indicted by a Mahoning County grand jury Thursday was Heather K. Wymer, 30, and Michael Wymer, 35, both of North Palmyra Road, on the charges of assault, two counts of domestic violence and four counts of failing to provide for a functionally impaired person.
The two are not yet in custody, Mondora said. He said deputies went to arrest them after they were indicted and they were not at their home. Heather Wymer is McCrory's sister, and McCrory stayed with her because his father was a long-distance truck driver who was gone for a long time, Mondora said.
McCrory went missing from his sister's home July 24. His sister had said at the time that he was mentally impaired and that he had gone missing before but never for a long period of time. His father found him two days later at Eastwood Mall in Niles and took his son to the hospital to be examined, which is when detectives were called.
"The medical exam confirmed his story," Mondora said.
Mondora said the sister never shot at McCrory but she did slap him. When interviewed by detectives, Heather McCrory denied everything, Mondora said.
Mondora said the abuse had been going on for at least three years.
Heather Wymer has no criminal record, according to the Mahoning County Common Pleas Court website. Her husband has several traffic offenses and a 1996 bad-checks charge in county court in Boardman for which he received probation.
Mondora said McCrory is now with his father and is doing well. He said he has never dealt with a case such as the abuse McCrory has suffered.
"He's very happy with his dad now," Mondora said.
I know this family. First recheck the daughters criminal record because I know for a fact she did time for domestic violence against her mother. This family has always been dysfunctional. This boys mom would never win mother of the year. Am I'm surprised that hearing the sister was cashing his checks that the mom wasn't there with her hand out. She attended our church and tried to scam everything she could in anyway she could. But vindy recheck the daughter I clearly remember her being in jail.
your memory has holes in it, gdog. A seatbelt violation is not automatically jail time.
A bizarre story...

Tejada slotted at No. 2 once again
Formerly slumping slugger has big night batting second
MILWAUKEE -- Miguel Tejada came to Miller Park on Sunday to find himself back in the No. 2 slot in manager Cecil Cooper's lineup, thanks to a stellar performance in that role on Saturday night.
The Astros lost Saturday's game, 6-4, but Tejada was certainly not the reason. He went 4-for-4 and scored Houston's first run of the night when he trotted home on Carlos Lee's home run in the fourth inning.
Cooper was pleased with his shortstop's approach at the plate and wanted to give Tejada another day batting second in the hope that his success would continue.
"Miggy swung the bat well last night," Cooper said. "He went and got a couple of pitches. [He] hit one to right-center, hit one back up the middle that was down. He had a good approach last night."
The idea behind moving Tejada up in the batting order was to help the struggling shortstop by getting him better pitches to hit by batting him in front of Lance Berkman.
Tejada's first hit of the game snapped an 0-for16 streak, and he kept on rolling all night.
"He seemed like he was a lot more relaxed," Cooper said. "He swung at better pitches, got better pitches to hit. A lot of times, hitters get themselves out because they'll be swinging at bad pitches.
"When you're hot, it doesn't matter what a guy is throwing you. You can go out of the zone and get pitches. But when you're struggling, you'll go out of the zone, and it's usually an out."
Before Saturday night, Tejada had only had one at-bat as a No. 2 since 2002, but Cooper's experiment was a hit, so he'll give it another day to see how works.
"Last night, the guys [in the dugout] were calling him a table-setter," Cooper said. "So we'll keep him in the table-setter role today and see how it goes."

Staff Writer
LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. —
Trapped inside a vehicle after a traffic accident, the victim tried unsuccessfully to contain screams from the shooting pain that surged through the body.
Seconds after the accident call broadcast across emergency radios, the lights and sirens of first responders echoed through the area.
Joining the pieces of the crashed car littered across the roadway were the emergency workers, who gathered at the scene to assess the situation. It took only seconds before the Jaws of Life began cutting through the mangled metal of the vehicle. After careful and meticulous work, the windshield was peeled forward onto the hood as the roof of the vehicle was finally removed. A volunteer firefighter immediately wedged himself behind the seat where the victim was still immobilized, speaking words of encouragement as other rescue workers continued to cut through the twisted metal that had become a temporary prison.
The rescue mission furthered into the more delicate territory where the victim remained trapped, suffering from wounds stemming from the accident. Diligently, patiently, and carefully they worked, while motorists blocked in traffic watched their life-saving efforts.
After nearly a half hour, the mangled metal was finally released, the seats that held the driver in a private kind of hell were cut from their base and the victim was stabilized on an emergency transport cot.
The terrain of the accident presented another challenge of lifting the patient up a steep and rain-slickened embankment where an ambulance awaited. Several of these emergency workers slid back down the steep incline, soaking their shoes and uniforms in the attempt to save lives. Once the patient was safely en route to medical treatment, the first responders pack up their equipment and return to their various destinations.
Through the bitter cold, extreme heat, and tumulus weather including rain, snow, hail and ice, these dedicated volunteers continuously risk their own lives and their own safety for others. Their service is strictly voluntary but requires a high level of technical training that usually comes from their own pockets, as does the fuel and other related costs of their selfless efforts.
There is no "bill in the mail" for the services of these brave men and women who risk their own lives for the well-being of others. Yet, this year, the rescue squad and fire departments — all of whom are volunteer positions — experienced nearly $15,000 less in their budgets due to a decrease in coal severance funds from the state. That is $15,000 less to these agencies that risk life and limb to preserve the same for others.
A simple sacrifice of a pack of cigarettes, a cup of gourmet coffee, a six-pack of beer — or a combination of the above — would generate badly needed funding for these volunteer organizations that save the lives and property of Laurel County residents. If just 1,000 people of each community could spare $10 for their local fire department or the rescue squad, the funds would compensate for some of the financial losses they have faced in the past year. For those who have less financial struggles than some in our county, an early tax write-off donation would ensure the same outstanding services that we are currently accustomed to.
It is only fair and deserving that we the citizens make a small sacrifice for those volunteer emergency workers who make so many sacrifices on our behalf.
You never know — the next life they save could be your own.

Yesterday the Internets went crazy over Pat Robertson's highly offensive comments that murderous gay people in San Francisco have special rings that cut unassuming people when they shake hands. These rings, according to the octogenarian televangelist, then transmit the HIV/AIDS virus into the open wound.
Robertson's people cut that portion from the video they post daily to his "700 Club" website, and quickly forced YouTube to remove a copy that included his hateful and ignorant remarks that Right Wing Watch had uploaded — totally under their right to report news and the fair use policy.
Robertson's publicist also sent a few publishers an explanation from Robertson, in which he claimed he was talking about "years ago," not now, and claimed his remarks were not "meant as an indictment of the homosexual community."
Oh, and he also claimed that "certain AIDS-infected activists were deliberately trying to infect people like me."
Here's a shorter version of the video, which of course leaves out context, making it all the worse for Robertson and his Christian Broadcasting Network.

Secretary of the Senate Nancy Erickson has rejected Roland Burris' appointment to the Senate, an aide to the secretary told CNN.
Roland Burris says he is the junior senator from Illinois and will fight to take his seat in the U.S. Senate.
Senate Democratic leaders have scheduled a meeting with Roland Burris, who was chosen by embattled Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich to fill the Senate seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama, a Democratic source said Saturday.
If anyone knows how Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich feels right now, I do.
Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is in federal custody on corruption charges, a law enforcement official said Tuesday.

A man's life begins to fall apart as the women in his life decide to leave him.
Willenbrock - Films of Andreas Dresen SeriesFree
Bernd Willenbrock is a successful used car salesman with a devoted wife, an accommodating mistress, a house in the suburbs, and a cottage in the country.
One day, seemingly out of nowhere, several cars are stolen from the lot. Bernd hires a night watchman, Fritz, partly to protect his business, and partly to get closer to Fritz's attractive daughter, Anna.
Bernd's situation continues to get worse, however, when he and his wife are robbed in their cottage in the middle of the night.
Soon after, Bernd's life begins to fall apart as the women in his life decide to leave him.
Willenbrock marks Dresen's first time directing adapted material, leading to a more formally constructed narrative compared to his usual improvised scripts.
He also sets aside his customary hand-held digital camera work in favor of nicely framed shots done on 35mm.
The result is an engaging film, part thriller, and part character study, with superb performances from all.

President Obama took his gun control message on the road, sitting down with law enforcement officials and community leaders in Minneapolis.
The President praised the Minneapolis Police Department, pointing to the city's success tackling gun violence. He is also trying to reach Minnesota gun owners as he works to rally public support for his proposals to curb gun violence.
Asked in a recent interview whether he had ever fired a gun, the President said yes, and over the weekend the White House released a photo of him shooting skeet at Camp David.
This is expected to be the first of several trips the President makes to push his plan outside Washington. Proposals for a new ban on assault weapons and high capacity ammunition magazines are already meeting a lot of resistance on Capitol Hill.
Outside groups on both sides of the issue are turning up the pressure on lawmakers. Elizabeth Kiss is one of 350 College Presidents that signed a letter to Congress supporting stricter gun laws.
The letter calls for keeping guns off college campuses as well as universal background checks and a new assault weapons ban.
President Obama is also pushing for easier access to mental health care and more cops on the beat to help address gun violence.

Citizens for Noise Ordinance, Montgomery Co. TX
As tax paying citizens of Montgomery County, Texas, we have the right to enjoy a reasonable level of peace and quiet while in our homes. This is a very important quality of life issue. Although some noise in our daily living is unavoidable, such as the routine repair and maintenance of our homes and communities, it is most often controlled by community association deed restrictions. The deed restrictions usually include language that prohibits loud garden and construction machinery between the hours of 8pm to 7 am so as not to disturb its citizensâ
There should be a limit to the parties. In Humble it is 11pm. Here I am outside of Conroe listening to booming bass and drunk singing - in Spanish, over a PA system, in my house, 1/4 mile down the road, at midnight, on a MONDAY.
Tim Till
Sick and tired of disrespectful neighbors.
Leanne Hamby
Respect for neighbors is key for peaceful living. 9:00 pm - 7:00 am Sunday through Thursday; and 10:00pm - 7:00 am Friday and Saturday would be considerate as a great number living in Montgomery County must commute to Harris County for work. When one must rise anywhere between 3:00 am - 5:00 am, these would be fair times for a Noise Ordinance. We should also consider the allowable decibel limits for these 'quiet times'. 55 dBA is customary around the country, which is equivalent to having a face-to-face conversation within 3-5 feet.

The Portland City Council has approved a new law for sick leave policy, making it mandatory for Portland businesses to give employees paid sick time.
Mayor Charlie Hales and the rest of the council voted 5-0 in favor of the change.
"This is justice. This is the right thing to do," Hales said. "It's a good day for Portland."
Businesses with six or more employees will have to provide up to 40 hours of paid sick leave annually. Smaller businesses will be required to allow employees to earn and take up to 40 hours a year of unpaid leave without fear of being fired for missing work due to health care needs.
The ordinance will take effect on January 1, 2014.
The City of Portland will now enter into a contract with the state Bureau of Labor and Industries to enforce it.
City Commissioner Amanda Fritz led the charge in proposing the new law.
The rest of the council voiced strong support for the plan, and Commissioner Nick Fish said the attention on the issue will now turn to the state legislature.
"My preference is for a statewide solution, so that all working families in Oregon, not just Portland, receive this benefit," Fish said.
City Commissioner Dan Saltzman said the policy is a victory for Portland parents.
"No person should have to choose between their job and taking care of a sick child," Saltzman said.

When I was a kid, you couldn't move around Glasgow for the number of Corporation buses on the streets. I'm probably showing my age when I tell you I can remember them being green, white and gold! Unfortunately, deregulation didn't go as well in Glasgow as it did in Edinburgh and First Bus have come to dominate in recent years.
Which is unfortunate as the First Bus service is, from all accounts, pretty crap. Glasgow isn't the only casualty. Deregulation was supposed to bring competition and lower fares. Instead, Scotland has seen two big operators (First and Stagecoach) dominate.
What we really need is re-regulation, to make the bus a 'service' again. To make the bus companies provide routes that take the public where they want to go, rather than where the bus company wants them to go. Buses that are attractive enough that people want to sit on them (First's colour scheme alone gives me the dry boak!). And fares that mean public transport is so much cheaper, the car is not an option.
Until then, we have a new Better Buses campaign in Glasgow. Started by Patrick Harvie MSP, it aims to get the voice of the people heard above the corporate wails of the bus companies. Tell them how a service can be improved, tweet about the bad (and good) experiences, and pass on your knowledge of how a service actually runs, instead of how the bus company reports that it runs. Together, Glasgow's bus users can hopefully change things for the better.

There's a new statewide initiative aimed at taking down those who make meth. The crackdown involves some tough new laws.
It's now a felony just to ask someone else to buy ingredients used to make meth, and the prime ingredient will be much more controlled.
Marshall County officials announced the new campaign Friday afternoon at Bunch Pharmacy in Guntersville.
Pseudoephedrine will now only be available at pharmacies.
A new computer statewide checking system is now fully operational, which allows limited monthly purchases of the drug no matter what pharmacy you go to.
District Attorney Steve Marshall said real time purchases are also seen by law enforcement, and people convicted of drug offenses will not be allowed to purchase pseudoephedrine unless they have a prescription.
Marshall believes this new tracking system will help seriously cut down on "smurfing" for meth makers.
"What they want to be able to do is supply ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, to those that were cooking, and it just became - and we were hearing - as much as $50 a pack for ephedrine, pseudoephedrine product," said Marshall.
Marshall said this should not affect people just wanting to purchase the drug for the right reasons.
People will still be able to buy the drug but must show a valid driver's license that is not suspended or revoked.

This review hasn't been rated yet.
I always feel meaningful and eminent when in Dean Street Townhouse. It's just a fantastic building in a great part of London. You can escape the sex, colour and vulgarity of Soho, the pick 'n' mix of beatnik culture, but then again, why would you really want to? Oh yeah, because everyone has to eat and drink at some point.
I took Anouska in an attempt to impress. I thought it would be a subtle introduction to my flamboyant vogue and give an impression of stardom and distinction, afterall, its become quite the hangout. The latest property in the back pocket of Nick Jones' Soho House empire (partnered with Richard Caring), Dean Street Townhouse doesn't quite have the same 'no status, no entry' policy of its partner down the road on Greek Street. Clearly, as I'm here and if that's not proof that they'll let any old riffraff in then Wagner won't win The X Factor.
Inside, the Georgian replicated building reflects its eclectic neighbourhood by showcasing "the cream of contemporary British art", with work from the likes of Paul Noble, Keith Tyson, Peter Blake, Tracey Emin, Mark Titchner, Fiona Banner, Keith Coventry and Mat Collishaw. An offbeat antique atmosphere is reflected in dark wood, and red, leather padded seating, plus monochrome tiles and calming greens that produce a contemporary New Yorky boutique feel, yet the menu spotlights a more retro-British quality. Nothing reflects this more than AA Gill's "attitude dish" mince and potatoes. But I can't comment on that as I started with fried duck egg, chicken livers, horn of plenty & devilled sauce (£9.75). A cheeky little introduction with a runny yolk and horn of plenty. It's okay, I didn't know what it was either. From the fungi family, craterellus cornucopioides, it's an edible mushroom, also known as trumpet of death, black chanterelle, black trumpet, or horn of plenty. So there you go. Thank you Wikipedia.
The twice-baked smoked haddock soufflé (£8.75) was creamy and filling and a British twist on a classic French dish by head chef, Stephen Tonkin. Anouska gazed, beholding the spherical soufflé that sat in front of her as the warm runny cream dish was raised and poured over like a savoury Christmas pudding. I picked up my fork and did the courteous thing, I ate half. Then felt sickly.
New potatoes as a side dish are steeply priced at £4.00, but is that really a shock? We're at Dean Street Townhouse in Soho and I was hardly going to bring my own. Several small pebble-like spuds were heavily buttered in a bowl and helped build up my main of outrageously expensive red-legged partridge with bread sauce (£21.75). The partridge was presented on a large, white plate with its size zero legs on one side and the sleek, plumb (ish) breast on the other. The meat was slightly crispy on the outside and succulently moist and tender inside. Mains are always a struggle as I'd quite happily dig-in to everything on a menu, but both my wallet and my size-32 waist (honestly! for now…) refuse me. The partridge was served with braised lentils and root vegetables, all warming and very British. After I'd finished on the legs (the partridge's, not Annouska's), there was some breast for me to devour. Don't worry, I'm not going to lower myself.
Anouska went gamey too with a warm wood pigeon, black pudding & scotch quails egg salad (£10.00). In all a well-balanced dish with the richness matched in both the pigeon and black pudding, cooled by salad leaves and warmed by small orbs of breaded quail eggs. Those of you who read my enduring, dragging pages will know about my quest for wonderful scotch eggs. These petite versions were dainty and soft and a lively booster in a salad.
Anouska chose the wine and picked two glasses of Pinot Blanc (£8.75), the point genetic mutation of Pinot noir, full-bodied and dry. Easy to knock back if a little languid held against pigeon and black pudding which burst with matcho faculty. Future pairings will see me reach for an elegant Piedmonte Nebbiolo d'Alba or a recent discovery, A & J Gomes, Azamor from Alentejo.
Sticky toffee pudding served with Scotch whisky ice-cream (£6.50) was an absolute winner. Unfortunately, I was too full and therefore unable to finish the dessert, something quite unheard of by me. I have let everyone down. Writing this I can't help but be reminded of the scene in BBC2′s The Trip when Steve Coogan persuades Rob Brydon to try the sticky toffee pudding, "Mmmhhh, that is wonderful," says Coogan. Brydon agrees, "Mmmhhh, that's fantastic!" This sticky toffee pudding was wonderful and the Scotch whisky ice-cream cooling and melting in truly orgasmic fashion and creating involuntary contractions of the muscles of the genitals. Smoothly casing the throat and wrapping up a quiet wonderful evening of British grub.

The DARE program at Fostoria Schools could be on the
chopping block for next school year.
The DARE program was recently revived at the school
district, with January being the first time the program was seen since 2002, but police say there's not enough funding to keep
it going next year.
Fostoria Police have applied for grant money from the
Ohio Attorney General's Office to keep the program running. They're hoping to
get between $50-70,000. That would allow the program to continue, and both of
the current resource officers to remain working in the school system.
Police say the program is helping students talk with
their parents about the problems they're having in school.
"[It helps them] be willing to talk to their parents, or
talk to somebody, if they have problems identifying bullying in schools," said
Captain Patrick Brooks.
Captain Brooks also said the DARE program is critical to
helping students start a drug-free life.
The department will know about their funding status in
the next few months.

What Are the Highest Capacity, Least Expensive, & Most Reliable Hard Drives for Backup?
Dealing with video these days usually means working with lots of data, and when you're working with a lot, it usually means you're backing up even more. One solution for backing up is to buy drives that already come in a RAID (like the popular G-RAID, and another is to either purchase or make your own with bare drives (and yes, before going further, RAID itself is not necessarily backup depending on how it's configured and where the physical drives are). If you're going to be putting together your own RAID system, click through for which drives might be a good buy.
Thanks to Backblaze for doing the heavy lifting, we've got an idea about what you might want to be looking at if you're building your own system. It should be noted that Backblaze is running these hard drives through the toughest situation possible, but they should be a good indicator of the kind of performance you'd get:
Why they have the drives they do:
Why do we have the drives we have? Basically, we buy the least expensive drives that will work. When a new drive comes on the market that looks like it would work, and the price is good, we test a pod full and see how they perform. The new drives go through initial setup tests, a stress test, and then a couple weeks in production. (A couple of weeks is enough to fill the pod with data.) If things still look good, that drive goes on the buy list. When the price is right, we buy it.
And the drives that aren't great for their use (or most RAIDs in general):
The drives that just don't work in our environment are Western Digital Green 3TB drives and Seagate LP (low power) 2TB drives. Both of these drives start accumulating errors as soon as they are put into production. We think this is related to vibration. The drives do somewhat better in the new low-vibration Backblaze Storage Pod, but still not well enough.
The Hitachi drives they've tested have consistently done the best, but they also happen to be more expensive compared to the competition. While the Seagates haven't done as well over an extended period of time, they do seem to at least hold up over the first year. By the third year (36 months), however, the Seagates are down around to around 73% survival, while the Hitachi and Western Digital drives are around 94% or higher.
Which Drives Are Currently the Favorites?
Right now their favorite drives are the Seagate Desktop 4TB HDD.15 (ST4000DM000) and the Western Digital 3TB Red (WD30EFRX). You might think the Seagate is an odd choice based on the failure rate of past drives, but it's all about the bang for the buck. In their environment, it makes sense to try out a new drive like this, and if it doesn't work out in the long-term, replace it with something else. If you're putting together your own system, this may also be a possible solution, especially since over a long enough period of time, all drives do fail. Though if you're interested only in reliability, the Western Digital and Hitachi drives might be the better options.
In my limited experience, I've had very, very good luck with the Caviar Black series of drives from Western Digital. These are going to be the more costly, but if you're trying to run a system for speed and not necessarily just for backup, those might be a better solution. I'm also starting to experiment with the Seagate 4TB drives, so we'll see how they last over the next few years from a regular amount of abuse.
Your Mileage May Vary
It's tough to argue with hard evidence, but these results don't necessarily mean any of these drives are bad. If you want to run them a lot for long periods of time, however, it might be worth it to run some of the same drives they have had success with. If you're wondering where Toshiba and Samsung fit into the mix, Backblaze doesn't run enough of them to have solid numbers on their failure rates, so they were excluded from their charts.
If you're wondering about Solid State Drives (SSDs), for lots of storage they don't make much sense, as you can get significantly more value for your money with regular spinning drives. They are certainly much faster, but if you're looking at a backup situation, it's going to be prohibitively expensive to build it out of SSDs (even if it's possible that their failure rates are lower).
Head on over to the post at the Backblaze blog as there is so much more in-depth information about the exact hard drives and how they perform over time.
What has your success rate been with certain brands? Have you seen any trends with your own hard drives?
- Which Hard Drive Should I Buy? — Backblaze
- Seagate Desktop 4TB HDD.15 (ST4000DM000) — B&H
- Western Digital 3TB Red (WD30EFRX) — B&H
- Hitachi Hard Drives — B&H

Still good enough for EDL's. :P
Bobby on 02.13.14 @ 10:29AM
I must be using the better Seagate drives then, because the ones in my use have performed well.
These stats aren't perfect. They use far more Seagate drives than the other brands. Plus, they're using consumer level drives in an enterprise application.
Joe Marine on 02.13.14 @ 10:53AM
Here are the numbers:
# of Drives/Size in Gigabytes/Average Age in Years
Seagate 12,765 39,576 1.4
Hitachi 12,956 36,078 2.0
Toshiba 58 174 0.7
Samsung 18 18 3.7
Jerome on 02.13.14 @ 10:55AM
I agree. If the data is critical and price is a major factor, then they'd have to make the hard choice. Buy a Glyph or GTech if the data integrity is priority, or go for the Hitachi if price is the paramount concern.
maghoxfr on 02.13.14 @ 7:31PM
THat's why they are using percentages.

Anyone have anyluck with Backblaze for backup? I just got a 300mbps fiber ISP to try to backup a few TB with their "unthrottled" back up, but so far I've only managed to get 4.5mbps upload speeds.
I used Backblaze for a couple of years. Great service. Slow upload, but that's expected. It's not supposed to be fast, just quietly uploading in the background.
Derek on 02.19.14 @ 5:18PM
Crashplan is vastly better for filmmakers simply because they don't erase data from external hard drives after 30 days as BackBlaze does.

gtech uses hitachi drives
Anthony Marino on 02.13.14 @ 11:43AM
My experience hasn't been so good with Hatachi. I use 8 drives , 2TB WD RE4 in a raid 6 configuration. It's not as fast as a raid0 but so far pretty reliable. Putting together my system I had no idea some drives (most drives) aren't raid compatiable. After switching to the re4′s things have been pretty smooth, plus the warranty is excellent. Drives are important but for a raid set up its more important is to get drives with low timeout readings and always use a quality raid card. Never use the mobo raid controller, it's going to fail there's no doubt about it. To free up space I always off load on to cheaper single drives to store my media. Good article, very important info
Kevin on 02.13.14 @ 12:30PM
All hard drives will crash… There is no way around it.. Ive had them all with all different raid configs…. The only true safest backup is LTO. LTO-5 has a shelf life of 30 years.. (Obviously its not a hard drive its tape) but if your looking for a true archive/backup. LTO is the way to go.
Thyl Engelhardt on 02.14.14 @ 6:08AM
If you can afford it, and if you can make the SAS Interface work with your computer and software. There seems only one drive with a USB interface, from a more or less unknown Japanese company.
Little Mermaido on 02.18.14 @ 10:19PM
Hard disks have a very long shelf life. I have read a few studies that attempted to predict it, and all were at over 60 years at 70F, with low humidity increasing the figure..
Google this:
Predicting Archival Life of Removable Hard Disk Drives
My personal experience with drives has been positive also. Without the wear of running, they are quite safe. All my old drives still work, I recently did a backup of lots of useless staff:) This included Amiga drives and some 20yo PC drives. All consumer quality drives, but that should be irrelevant when wear is low. Some have very low hours, some have been on computers for a few years.Density does go up, but I expect technology to be better also.
I suspect tape cannot compete with hard disks in archival. I had tape fail in the past and it was catastrophic because both backups were unreadable on the unit that created them. I don't know much about the environmental parameters of that backup. The situation was saved by an accidental HDD duplicate on a first generation Raptor.
Hard disks have a bad reputation because many consumers use them in very extreme scenarios these days. And by extreme I mean beyond their specification. A consumer drive inside a hot laptop running 24/7 on p2p, or in a video storage RAID will not live long. And since that would be the result of normal wear, the disk will deteriorate very fast.
Based on my experience, I would trust any backup on duplicate offline HDD, when the two disks come from different manufacturers. In 10y or so I would backup to the latest generation, keeping the originals, just to be conservative and keep up with more modern interfaces.
On the other hand, an online HDD backup cannot be trusted. The probability of failure is very high after a year. Raid1/5 is safe, but it stresses the disks a lot if they are consumer spec, so failures come way sooner and quite close to each other. Use appropriate spec for each application.
Gene Sung on 02.13.14 @ 1:30PM
Great article. I've always wonder about this and it's good to see some solid data.
Colleen on 02.13.14 @ 2:12PM
I've seen this Backblaze blog post mentioned in several places. One thing these articles never point out is that they were only using consumer level drives in an enterprise application, as another commentor noted. Consequently, my favorite drive, the Western Digital Black series, was completely left out. I am a computer consultant and deal with a lot of failed drives. While the Backblaze information is useful in many ways, I would be leery about extrapolating it without some consideration of context.
I agree. I have used Western Digital Blacks ever since I had to do an exchange of a failed drive with Seagate (nightmare) compared to WD exchange.
All my black drives are still running years after warranty and abuse while all the other brands have fallen to the wayside. WD customer service is excellent and fast.
SSD's, however, are quite useful for real time/live recording/data acquisition. And they are much cheaper per unit of storage than higher end media cards such as SxS or C-Fast, so if there's a choice between the media cards and an external recorder with a built-in SSD, it should be a better buy to go with the external recorder and then just dump files onto the HDD's.
Mike Hendzel on 02.13.14 @ 10:49PM
What I think is really interesting is that they use a lot of "consumer" grade hard drives. In that environment the manufactures marketing pitches must not matter. With whatever crazy amount of redundancy they have, it must be not worth the extra cost of getting the server grade drives like the Reds or Blacks. That being said if you are building a 5 drive system and 2 broken drives can mean a world of pain, it's probably best to spend the extra money.
Little Mermaido on 02.18.14 @ 1:21AM
Companies in the storage business test their drives, they are very experienced with the different models in the market, and they are not fooled by marketing. The enterprise drives have very different specs. They are designed to be packed together in small spaces, under high vibration, used 24/7, under constant access and still be good for five years. Occasionally one specs of these is integrated into high end consumer drives such as WD Black or Hitachi Deskstar, but there are still many differences. They cost twice as much as entry level consumer drives for a reason.
This company does not even approach light usage patterns, so they can get away with cheaper drives if vibration is not an issue for the specific drive model. In other environments, the consumer drives will fail within months.
trackofalljades on 02.14.14 @ 12:57AM
If you're backing things up properly, it really shouldn't matter that much to you when a single drive fails. Drives fail, it's what they do…they spin around for a long time, and rust, and then they stop. Drives should just be something you pull out and push into your rig/workflow whenever necessary and rather than worrying about how to save a few bucks more on them, you should be asking yourself "how can I work differently so this won't even be a thing I worry much about?"
TechFan on 02.15.14 @ 12:41AM
please don't post such misleading stories on the web, at least try to research it and use logic before posting such possibly damaging story…
–> this is what actually happened and the way Backblaze got their "results"
@TechFan Thanks for the link, it's a good read poking many a hole in Backblaze's failure of basic scientific testing

I must confess that I'm a WD fanboy. But I wasn't always. I bought a WD 1TB drive (Black) a few years back and it crashed not long after I purchased it. After some low-level wrangling with no positive result, I fired off a nasty-gram to WD's CEO and he put Jim Case on the job. Jim not only retrieved the data from the crashed drive, he replaced it with a better one–and threw in another 360MB "My Passport" portable drive. This won me over and I went back and bought a companion to the 1TB drive Jim replaced. It's that kind of outstanding customer service that made the difference for me, and I give a hearty shout-out to Jim for exceeding expectations! Oh and almost 3 years later, the two drives are still spinning!
@Terry…And while no one may have noticed. SERVICE is all these companies have to offer. They all have product, & products fail. But does that company have SERVICE as it's priority?
Dylan on 02.20.14 @ 9:26PM
do not buy a seagate backup plus drive, it is pure bs. It says it is usb 3 and it transfers
at usb 2 speed maybe 25mb/s. Pure and unadulterated bs, try transfering 4 tb at 25/s
you will die of starvation before the drive transfers. And yes duh I am using
a new 2014 laptop with usb 3 and usb 3 cable of course.
Christopher Kinsman on 02.21.14 @ 8:48PM
I've owned raids since my first SCSI 36GB raid that ran me $7,200. (and I had twice as much as my competitors!) Since then, I have found a great little company, MAC GURUS, that builds raids and provides kits to build your own raids. The first raid I bought was in 2005 which I built from their kit, and it's still spinning without a glitch. (I did replace a noisy fan for $15) Rick is the owner, and also answers the phone and helps with tech ?s. The website http://www.macgurus.com is also loaded with important drive info as well as how to articles and what to look out for when buying drives. We've purchased drives from Rick for 5 shows now and we've never been disappointed! These aren't beautiful pieces of art – they are raids – so don't expect a twin to your mac. They are what they are. Inexpensive, reliable and backed with awesome customer service. I can't recommend these guys to you any more strongly. In case you are wondering – no, I don't get any discount from them for recommendations – just piece of mind that what I spend my hard earned money on is going to work day in and day out!!!! Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,

It tallys with my experience with hard drives. Seagate often have highest failure rate unless you place them in very cold rooms. They tend to run way too hot and with long hours of running in any enclosure they will literally cooked themselves to death. WD Reds seem to be more stable after a little hick up in the beginning but it was operator error on a new enclosure. I would go either with WD Reds as the warranty is the best, Hitachi does not have 3 year warranties any more and the product I saw was made in China not awe inspiring.

My two-year-old is at the peculiar stage of innocence where she really likes the sensation of hitting different substances (the couch, the wall, toys, her sister...) but harbors no ill intentions. Coupled with her knowledge of tools, she seems to believe that everything can be fixed with a hammer, so there is no artifice in her response to horrified questions like "Why are you hitting your teddy bear with that drumstick?" She is truly and honestly "fixing it."
It's hard to keep this in mind when she has also adopted the "Finding Nemo" seagulls' mantra as her own. She justifies snatching toys from her sister with a cheery "My turn!" and rejects her peas for the ones on my plate when they are the exact same small green butter-less balls. I remember drinking my mom's soda as a teenager, and my husband still (after six years of marriage!) refuses to share a drink with me at the movies because of the size of my "sips," but I certainly don't remember filtching food of the plates of the rest of my family. It actually repulses me somewhat, even while the Toddler Feeder in my is glad to see her eating some veggies. It reminds me of the biography of Helen Keller that I read as a child which described the terror tactics Anne Sullivan witnessed in her first meal at the Keller family dinner table.
I remind myself on a daily basis how fortunate I am to have two healthy, intelligent girls, a willing and able partner who supports and loves his roles as husband and father, and extended family who will drop everything and come a'runnin' if we ever need them. All my respect goes out to all the men and women who are raising their children with any less of a support network.
While I wouldn't give up my technology-based life, there is a rosy-glow-of-nostalgia part of me that mourns elements of simpler days that are forever lost: when families were closer because it was rare to leave one's hometown; when there was less concentration on the motives and intentions that surrounded one; when so many more things could, in fact, be fixed with a hammer.
