Secrets Unveiled, Part 1
A Call of Cthulhu Card of the Week by guest writer Marius Hartland |
Call of Cthulhu LCG | Published 30 April 2010 |
Now he was praying because the Witches' Sabbath was drawing near. May Eve was Walpurgis Night, when hell's blackest evil roamed the earth and all the slaves of Satan gathered for nameless rites and deeds. It was always a very bad time in Arkham, even though the fine folks up in Miskatonic Avenue and High and Saltonstall Streets pretended to know nothing about it. There would be bad doings, and a child or two would probably be missing.
- H.P. Lovecraft, Dreams in the Witch-House
This week the Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game card-of-the-week-spotlight brings you a Cthulhu-sized update on the upcoming Secrets of Arkham expansion set. We'll be taking a look at three (!) cards: A story card, a classic card making a welcome return, and a new addition to the game.
First up is the new Story Deck. When the game launched in its first incarnation six years ago, the concept of a changing Story Deck was launched with it, periodically changing the environment in which players compete. Secrets of Arkham brings a new version of this Story Deck, reintroducing six older stories and adding four never-seen-before stories to the fray.
The Story Card mechanic in Call of Cthulhu is suitably strange and unpredictable. Some stories favor those who are ahead in the game while others favor those who behind. The story of today will give an edge to the player who has the best second-best cards in play.
When They Come At Night is triggered, a kind of mini-game is started in which players have to decide the value of different cards, sometimes in different numbers. It rewards players who prefer variation over consistency in their decks. The player who has all of their eight Alaskan Sledge Dogs (Mountains of Madness, F16) in play would be hit way harder than the player who has eight different characters at his side. You have a lone Syndicate Liaison (Core Set, F68) versus their Cthulhu, The Great Old One (Core Set, F41) and it's obvious who will be getting the better deal. Sometimes it's not that obvious though, and your best laid plans are thwarted by a controversial choice of your opponent.
Fighting an uphill battle to trigger a game-changer is hard. If you manage to activate Twila Katherine Price, Lost in a Dream (Twilight Horror, F3) before any struggles resolve, things may suddenly become a lot more easy. Behind Bars (Sleep of the Dead, F82) allows you to sneak a character even past a big threat. Just resourcing a Stealthy Zoog (Journey to Unknown Kadath, F115) makes even trying to win this story an awkward proposition.
Things get really interesting when you're in the mirror match: Will you name one of your own character or support cards, if your opponent has one too? And what will they name? Yes, They Come At Night hits support card too, which is helpful for decks that don't have access to support card destruction effects. It's only a matter of how far you're willing to go.
Fearing the Fear
Next up is welcome return from a card that makes insanity actually a shocking prospect with grave consequences. The Greatest Fear... (Secrets of Arkham, F48) impacts how you play the game merely by existing. In an update to the original it now comes with two subtypes: Disaster and Madness both illustrating how horribly devastating losing ones mind is. Consider Keeper of Dreams (Journey to Unknown Kadath, F109). In some situations you'll be forced to choose between losing a random card or risk losing two random cards and potentially handing out extra success tokens.
The Greatest Fear... makes your Lunatics both better and worse. On one side, you'll risk opening yourself up to getting hurt a lot by driving your lunatic insane. On the other hand you can play it on yourself to get an extra token to finish the game – or trigger They Come At Night at the most inopportune moment. Sometimes you'll just have to embrace insanity and run with it- giggling uncontrollably is entirely optional, though recommended.
Timing is everything. If your hand is empty it could just happen that something is driven insane in the action window between drawing cards and starting your Operation Phase, robbing you of an opportunity to play a card or add a resource for an entire turn. Manage your hand size with care, or risk being caught red-handed.
From The Ground Up
The final card of today also deals with insanity. It doesn't interact with The Greatest Fear but if you're looking to have lots of insane characters on the table Things in the Ground (Secrets of Arkham, F31) will provide. The last time I showed you a new Yog-Sothoth card you may have noticed that the faction is moving towards its classic play style. Secrets of Arkham's selection of Yog-Sothoth card strengthens the feel of this faction and Things in the Ground fits right in.
From a rules point of view, characters not in play can't go insane and can't be prevented to go insane. The terror icons and willpower they might have isn't active until they are in play so there is nothing to stop them from entering play insane. When it happens they aren't even considered "going insane." Once in play, they are insane however, so, say Bloodthirsty Zealot (The Spawn of the Sleeper, F13) will enjoy the madness of others and be generally cost effective.
Things in the Ground is an Environment, not a Location, which drastically limits the available removal that could hit it. It's also not Unique, allowing for multiples – Just beware They Come At Night when you do. And while the effect seems symmetrical, you, the Yog-Sothoth player comes prepared, having access to anything in the discard pile while your characters are the biggest threats you can find; You won't have to worry about actually draining domains – Eventually they will restore themselves.
Putting the Shub-Niggurath faction in the mix means you'll have plenty of targets for Shocking Transformation (Core Set, F140) and before you know it Ancient Guardian (Core Set, F126) will ready "Things" multiple times to generate a massive army, destroy decks and setting up a massive advantage for cards like Speak to the Dead (Whispers in the Dark, F20.)
Next week we'll delve further into the Secrets of Arkham by triggering a cascade of effects, welcome back an infamous Sorceror and take a trip to Arkham's sewers. Until then, enjoy Walpurgis Night.
Special thanks to Marius Hartland, who provided this week's card of the week spotlight.
Based on the fiction of H.P. Lovecraft and his literary circle, Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game takes two players deep into the Cthulhu Mythos where investigators clash with the Ancient Ones and Elder Gods for the fate of the world. The Living Card Game format allows players to customize their gaming experience with monthly Asylum Pack expansions to the core game.
Amazing cards! I tend to forgive FFG for the delay of Secrets of Arkham right now. :)

A couple had two little boys ages 8 and 10 who were excessively mischievous. They were always getting into trouble and their parents knew that if any mischief occurred in their town their sons were probably involved. They boys' mother heard that a clergyman in town had been successful in disciplining children so she asked if he would speak with her boys. The clergyman agreed but asked to see them individually. So the mother sent her 8-year-old first in the morningwith the older boy to see the clergyman in the afternoon. The clergyman a huge man with a booming voice sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly "Where is God?". They boy's mouth dropped open but he made no response sitting there with his mouth hanging open wide-eyed. So the clergyman repeated the question in an even sterner tone "Where is God?" Again the boy made no attempt to answer. So the clergyman raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed "WHERE IS GOD?" The boy screamed and bolted from the room ran directly home and dove into his closet slamming the door behind him. When his older brother found him in the closet he asked "What happened?"cheap ''' power '''''''' (World of '''''''' Power ''''''''):buy [url=http://www.igsstar.com]''' Power ''''''''[/url], cheap [url=http://www.igsstar.com/'''-'''''''''''''-us/]world of '''''''' power ''''''''[/url] , 1-80 level [url=http://www.'''''''web.com]''' Power ''''''''[/url],[url=http://www.buymsmesos.com]''''' story mesos[/url], [url=http://www.vponsale.com/invitations/]wedding invitations[/url]

[size=18]James Starks' ascent to Super Sunday
By Jonah Bronstein
Niagara Gazette
NIAGARA FALLS Before he became a Friday night franchise at Sal Maglie Stadium, a Saturday sensation at UB Stadium, and a rookie revelation on the Green Bay Packers road trip from the outskirts of the NFL playoff picture to Super Bowl favorite, James Starks was an energetic kid exploring his boundaries in the small city that would one day be re-dubbed Starksville in his honor.
James Starks Sr. remembers taking his 7-year-old son to Unity Park in Niagara Falls and watching him do back-flips off the highest structure he could find. He worried for a split second, until he saw him stick the landing.
This dude can do anything, Starks Sr. marveled.
James used to turn flips in the house, grandmother Vera Nana Starks said. I used to watch him stop, drop, spin around. I said this kid is a special athlete.
Theyre all athletes in the Starks family, going back to grandfather Frank Starks. He was a superlative scorer at LaSalle High School in the early 60s who was billed as exciting Frank Starks when he later toured with the Harlem Diplomats, a Canadian version of the Harlem Globetrotters. He also played for the Al Maroone AAU squad that scrimmaged Calvin Murphy and the Niagara University freshman team. When Murphy came back to campus last month to share stories, he recalled Frank Starks was one of the best individual opponents he faced as a collegian.
If you talk to the old guys in my neighborhood, they always bring up Frank Starks. He was the best player to come out of Niagara Falls, said Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jonny Flynn, a second-cousin of James Starks. When they find out Im his nephew, they say thats where I got it from.
I hear he really had it cookin, James Starks said. He had a pure shot and handle out of this world.
Frank Starks namesake and another son, Mike, were starting guards on the LaSalle team that won a state championship in 1988.
James Starks Sr. was a standout football player at Trott Vocational before he hurt his knee as a freshman. From then on, his focus shifted toward helping his mother with the housework while she worked two jobs.
He used to watch over the other kids, cook for them, and when I came home, there wasnt a dish that was dirty, Vera Starks said. My son James never got as far as my grandson, but as far as personalities, hes a spitting image. He was a good young man.
James Starks physical resemblance to his father also branded him with a second-generation nickname Buck.
Buck comes from my grandfather, James Starks Sr. said. I used to do the James Brown dance. He and all his friends would come in from a hard days work and I was their entertainment. Theyd say, wheres James? Wheres the young buck? And I would do my dance and they would all give me a buck.
So when Little Buck was little, he looked so much like me and everybody was like oh my goodness, and we started calling him Little Buck.
Now hes Big Buck, and Im Little Buck.
As an athlete, Starks looked up most to his older brother, Sanquin, who went on to play basketball at DYouville College.
He went to college to do something he loved and he was really a role model to me, James Starks said. I wanted to imitate everything he was doing.
Sanquin brought James to the YMCA to play basketball with the older teenagers. James wasnt as developed offensively, so Sanquin urged him to put his athletic ability to use on defense. In his senior year, James was the sixth man and designated defensive stopper for the Niagara Falls High School team that won a state championship.
Buck, man, hes a straight athlete, said Paul Harris, the star of that team who now plays professional basketball in the Phillipines. Out of anybody on our team that checked me, he was the best.
Flynn believes James couldve been a Division I basketball player if that was his focus. But it was obvious early on that football was his favorite sport. When the big AAU basketball tournaments came around in the summer, Starks would stay home because he didnt want to miss football practice.
I came to a couple of his games in high school, Harris said, and you could see basketball was something he liked, but football was something he loved.
It was Sanquin who introduced James to the love of his life, including him in toss-up tackle games at the neighborhood parks.
It would be like 20 kids and youd have to make all the kids miss when you picked up the ball, James said. I was the youngest kid, like 11, playing with 15 and 16-year olds. I loved hitting people. I never ran from contact. Even when I was younger, I used to run kids over.
When he started playing with the older kids in Cataract Little Loop leagues, Starks found himself scoring most of the touchdowns.
Buck was never one of those kids that said he was the reason we were winning, said Wayne Ollison, his Little Loop coach. He was very conscious of his teammates. He got all the glory because he scored all the touchdowns. But he never took that glory and pound his chest.
Ive been fortunate to be around a lot of tremendous athletes, Niagara Falls basketball coach Sal Constantino said, and he is the most humble of them all. Hes a true gentleman.
Starks mother, Lillie Hall, said for all her sons accomplishments, she takes the most pride in his humility.
Thats what I like most about James, Hall said during his college career. I really think that has a lot do with bringing him up in the church.
Vera Starks said church was so important to James and his sister, Ebony, that if he thought the family was running late on a Sunday morning, theyd start walking there.
At Super Bowl media day this week, Starks told the throng of reporters, God has been blessing me all this time and it has been working out for me and I am not going to stop now.
When Starks was a ninth-grader trying out for the Niagara Falls junior varsity football team, he so impressed coach Don Bass on the first day that Bass approached his father after practice and said, if he doesnt get caught up in the streets and he keeps his grades up, he wont pay a cent for college.
Starks never got caught up in the streets.
Ever since James was small, his character has always been fun and happy-go-lucky, James Starks Sr. said. Ive never had to go look for James. Ive never had to worry about police calling James. I am truly grateful that I never had to go looking for my son or get him out of fights. A lot of people around here dont have that.
Hes one of the finest young men Ive ever had in my whole teaching career, in 30-plus years, said Chris Farino, Starks 12th-grade English teacher.
James has always been a kind-hearted kid, Vera Starks said. Whether its helping a lady get out of a car, or somebody fell across the street and he went to pick them up.
Unless they fell because they were trying to tackle Starks on the football field. Then hed leave them in his dust.
After the first padded practice Bass saw Starks participate in him, he told him, if you stay dedicated, you can do this for a living.
Starks went on to quarterback Niagara Falls to its first sectional playoff appearance in 2004, along with landmark wins over perennial powers North Tonawanda, Lockport and Orchard Park.
He chose to play at the University at Buffalo in part because he wanted to help lift the local program to similar heights.
His first coach at UB, Jim Hofher, moved Starks to cornerback and redshirted him as a freshman. Followers in the Falls questioned the wisdom of moving such an electrifying ball-carrier to a defensive position.
What was Starks reaction?
Dang, I wish they wouldve put me at safety, he said. I wanted to come downhill and hit somebody.
Turner Gill took over the UB program the next year and gave Starks a chance to win the starting quarterback position during the spring. In summer training camp, he moved him to running back.
I was very excited to get him in the room, said Allen Mogridge, UBs running backs coach at the time and now the tight ends coach at North Carolina. Everybody in the program knew the kind of ability James Starks had. You stand next to James and you see how long this dude is. Hes rangy and for a tall guy, hes so explosive and strong. Hes just a gifted kid.
Starks started his first game on the second string. By the second half, he was the featured runner, and by overtime he was running into the end zone for the game-winning touchdown. He went on to set all of the programs rushing records in just three seasons. His career culminated when he scored the winning touchdown in overtime at Bowling Green in 2008, clinching the Bulls first division title.
I swear, no one was touching that kid in overtime, Mogridge said. I wish somebody had a stopwatch on that run.
Having been named an honorable mention All-American by Sports Illustrated, Starks was primed to do something really special, in his senior year, Mogridge said. But a preseason shoulder injury required surgery and ended Starks college career prematurely.
Starks is revered at UB like no other former player. At last weeks mens basketball game, fans were able to sign a banner that would be sent to Starks for him to hang in his locker today. By the time UB guard Byron Mulkey, a Niagara-Wheatfield graduate, got a chance to sign it, the poster was saturated in ink and the only space for him to write was directly on Starks picture.
Missing his senior season caused Starks draft stock to fall. He was considered a second- or third-round prospect before the injury, but wound up being drafted in the sixth round by Green Bay.
During minicamp, Starks hurt his hamstring and when he aggravated the injury during a conditioning test on the eve of training camp, he was placed on the physically unable to perform list for the first half of the season.
Everything happens for a reason, James Starks Sr. senior said. I truly believe that was time for him to study his playbook and get all his plays together.
When he finally got on the field for Green Bays Dec. 5 game against San Francisco, it was the first time hed played full-contact football in 23 months.
Through the two years that my son was out of football, he did nothing but smile, Starks Sr. said.
Mogridge said he had one rule for Starks when he coached him keep smiling.
He has one of the greatest smiles and a quiet confidence that is second to none, Mogridge said.
The most beautiful thing about Buck is his smile, Starks Sr. said. "You look in his helmet and all you see is his teeth. When Buck comes around, the whole room changes. You can feel the aura around him.
Starks was inactive for two late season games because the Packers were unhappy with his pass blocking in practice. But in the Packers wild card playoff win in Philadelphia, he rushed for a franchise rookie record 123 yards, establishing himself as the Packers primary running back this postseason.
And hes been smiling nonstop since.
I really respect the organization and Im really blessed that they gave me this opportunity, Starks said. Now I have the opportunity to play on one of the biggest stages of my life.

Type of intervention: new development Client: Private Project value: £150K An extreme design is certainly part of this concept design. The land is located in Peckham and the layout has an area of 23 Sq m for the ground floor and a total of approximately 67 Sq m. I should be considered a family house with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room and kitchen. Following the existing context, the ground floor has been moved in order to achieve three storeys on the left side of a two storeys house.
Type of intervention: loft conversion Client: Private Project value: £60K The layout has the shape of an angle and for this reason loft conversion became a proposal less common that what it might seem. We have proposed an important roof alteration with rear extension and front/side dormer. This option has an external gross area of 40 Sq M. Compared to the number two this option has an additional dormer that increase habitable area and comfort.
Type of intervention: roof extension Client: Private Project value: £100K This project concerns roof extension of a small building built in a common way with bricks and timber joists. Following client's brief we have developed a concept design of vertical extension in which we have considered timber frame structure in order to reduce additional building load. The proposed flat has two bedrooms, one bathroom, reception room and kitchen.
Type of intervention: loft conversion and extension Client: Private Project value: £135K There was the opportunity to upgrade the house and improve the rear garden area providing a new layout with the major part made by glass and new bamboo decoration in order to give more green flavour to the property. The site is in a mainly residential area and the high design quality enhance the surrounded properties providing a more accurate new extension that is fully integrated with the original building. Have been considered materials used and finishing in order to respects the existing traditional style. The proposal was to demolish and rebuild the Kitchen (previously 11.7 sq m proposed 5.7 sq m) that has been integrated with adjacent Dining Room. In this proposal has been considered also an additional glass roof and new wall along existing extension.
Type of intervention: internal remodelling Client: Private Project value: 170K The most important issue of this project is certainly the opening between living room and kitchen located at the 3rd floor. For this aim has been necessary to consider a replacement of the existing timber frame structure with an important metal beam sufficient to support the important foldable (or sliding) glass partition. The loft refurbishment is included in this project but, in this case, there are minus changes of the layout in this proposal. However,also in this case, the structural engineer has considered installation of timber beam above the sliding pocket doors. In order to comply with our client and with Building Regulation, the existing carpet will be replaced with timber flooring and an additional acoustic insulation will be necessary.
Type of intervention: requalification and extension Client: Private Project value: 130K There was the opportunity to upgrade the house and improve the rear area providing a new layout. The existing rising dump could cause structural flank walls problem of stability on both sides. The existing condition is even a health hazard to occupants. Important intervention was necessary in order to preserve the existing building. Some important topics concerning the proposed intervention and related Policies should be pointed out: -To describes this proposal neither extension nor alteration should be used but regeneration (in small scale) is the most appropriate term. -It has a new garden area that nowadays is impossible due to the fact that the existing construction covers the entire land. -The height and the roof profile and silhouette of new proposal follows the neighbouring building.
Type of intervention: internal refurbishment Client: Private Project value: 35K This was a Southwark Council flat purchased in poor conditions. Consequently, it has been upgraded in order to give new flavors and comfortable environment. The mid 70's tower building in which this property is located has a generous layout that is easy to use and to be refurbished. In fact, this apartment has a Gross Internal Area of 56 Sq m and one bedroom only. Panoramic views are remarkable and faced toward Canary Wharf.
Type of intervention: requalification and extension Client: Private Project value: 120K This project relates to one of a pair of semi-detached Victorian cottages. The aim is to return the lower ground floor to habitable use, improving it and converting it into a self-contained one-bedroom flat, using the existing area, plus a one metre extension. There would be external independent access from the flank wall that now is only used as the external passage to the garden. The flat would have private amenity space. The other two floors of the house comprise two existing one-bed flats at the upper-ground and first floor to be remodelled. It is proposed that the new extension areas will be finished externally using brown London stock facing bricks to match the existing. Also for external containment the same type of bricks will be adopted.

I just bought this king size latex bed. It was wonderful. I had to immediately call the company because the chuncked up the corner of the boxspring. Had that not happened all would be fine. But, since I called to talk to the manager and was joking about how high the bed was he said, Hey since we have to exchange the boxsprings because of the delivery guys let me get you the low profile system. Ok, why not a normal size bed.
Well, this is my question...Am I crazy??? I loved my new bed. It was like sleeping on a cloud. I have a bad back and hips and have to get cortizone shots. I was so happy to sleep without pain. Not any more. I am in so much pain I am near tears. I tried to make excuses that I must haver done someithing to myself. Now I am starting to believe it the switch in boxsprings from a nice thick boxspring to a skinny set. Is it true that going to a thin profile boxspring can make the matress loose the support it had or like I said am I crazy?????? Please help me!!! I do have an exchange time so if I'm not crazy I want my big boxsprings back.
Hi Denise. I'm not qualified to comment on your sanity. However, The low profile boxspring from Sealy is made the same as their regular boxspring. The height of the boxspring doesn't change the feel or the wear-ability of the mattress....just the convenience of height.
Now, I don't know what you bought or if the one boxspring is the same as the other. I do know that mattress, that start off feeling "like a cloud", don't stay that way very long. I also know that there are plenty of "latex mattresses" on the market with very little latex in them. I know too, that marketing people like to change the spelling of things to lead you to believe one thing, while something else is true. Are you misspelling "latex"...or was it misspelled for you? Do you know what's in that mattress?

In a French movie, Le Havre , a vendor is selling leeks bigger than his forearm. They were probably the size of a very large man's forearm. The scene is down on the Mediterranean coast. I have never seen anything close at the supermarkets. Do we have any such huge varieties here in the US? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Probably. You'd have to read descriptions of ones offered by different sellers. American Flag is one that's pretty large, and I think Broad London is another large one. But I don't grow either, and don't know if they're as large as the one you saw. Sounds interesting, though! Let us know if you find out what it is. |

http://keithfoster.wordpress.com/tag/yorkshire-giant-pot-leeks/ Here is an interesting web site with some great pictures. The larger leeks will come from the long season varieties that are planted in the spring and ready in late October or November. But as with everything there are tricks, and of course, soil, weather etc. variables. |

They were maybe overwintered leeks. They are not better when really big though. |

Since you mentioned Leek. I read that elephant white Garlic is not a garlic It is leek. But it tastes like mild garlic. The bulb is huge and can weigh more than a pound. It could be used for cooking but it also it could be cut on salad. I am going to plant some of this puppy to see how is it. Abe |

THIBODAUX - Seven people from Thibodaux were arrested after authorities said videos posted on YouTube showed the people fighting.
The seven arrested are listed below:
Authorities said 18-year-old Albert Starks and five juveniles also participated in the fighting. Starks has not yet been found.
Police said they received information on Monday about two large fights that occurred on Oct. 27 and 28. Officers found YouTube videos of the fights and were able to identify eight adults and five juveniles directly involved, most of whom police said were students at Thibodaux High School.
Authorities arrested seven of the eight and transported them to the Thibodaux Police Department. The seven were issued misdemeanor summons for disturbing the peace by fighting and/or remaining after being forbidden and then were released.
Police said they will get an arrest warrant for Starks for disturbing the peace, contributing to the delinquency of a minor and remaining after being forbidden. Two of the juveniles were transported to the Lafourche Parish Juvenile Justice Center, while the remaining juveniles were released to their parents.

Oilers struggle offensively in loss to Huskies
By BRIAN LESTER
HOUGHTON, Mich. — University of Findlay men's basketball coach Charlie Ernst watched the Oilers miss out on opportunities to put points on the board against Michigan Tech University Thursday night at the SDC Gymnasium.
UF had plenty of good looks. The shots sinply wouldn't go down as the No. 13 Oilers shot only 34 percent from the field and lost 66-49 in this Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference contest.
"It was a frustrating game, maybe more frustrating than the game against West Liberty (90-74 season-opening loss)," Ernst said. "We definitely had plenty of chances to make shots. They just didn't go in."
UF (4-2, 2-1 GLIAC) struggled out of the gate, falling behind 9-3 in the opening minutes of play. The Oilers managed to battle back, though, and cut the deficit to 27-24 at the break after a 3-pointer by Jake Heagen.
Heagen finished with 17 points on a night when UF connected on only 18 of 54 shot attempts from the floor, including a 6-of-24 showing from beyond the arc.
"I give a lot of credit to Tech. They are a very good basketball team and their game plan was to stop us inside," Ernst said. "They were going to take their chances from the 3-point line, and they would have two or three bodies on us everytime we got the ball inside. It eventually started to affect other parts of our game."
With 12:24 to go in the game, the Huskies (4-2, 2-1) opened up a 38-29 lead, but back-to-back 3-pointers by Aaron Robinson and Heagen trimmed the deficit to 40-35.
MTU eventually stretched its lead to 16 after Austin Armga (16 points) converted on a 3-point play and Alex Culy scored on a jumper to give the Huskies a 53-37 advantage with a little over seven minutes to play.
The Oilers closed the gap to 53-45 on a layup by Mark Frilling but could do little else the rest of the way as the Huskies pulled away and handed UF a loss in its first road game of the season.
MTU shot 46.7 percent (21-of-45) from the field and held a 35-30 edge on the boards. GLIAC Preseason Player of the Year Ali Haidar lived up to his hype as he scored 22 points to go along with 15 rebounds.
"We needed to get stops and get easy baskets off of turnovers, and we weren't able to do that enough to get back into the game," Ernst said. "I thought we did some things well and we played hard. It just wasn't our night."
Robinson was the only other player in double figures for the Oilers, clicking for 12 points. Leading scorer Greg Kahlig, who was averaging 19.4 points per outing, was limited to 4 points on 2-of-10 shooting.
While the Oilers were hoping to start this two-game trip off with a win, all they can do now is focus on earning a split when they play Northern Michigan at 1 p.m. Saturday in Maquette.
"This is a brutal trip and we've prepared for it in so many different ways over the years," Ernst said. "The thing we have to do is play with every ounce of energy we have on Saturday and come out of here with a win. It's a big game for us."
Heagen 5-8 3-4 17, Kahlig 2-10 0-0 4, Piehl 2-8 1-2 5, Samsel 0-4 0-0 0, Robinson 5-12 0-0 12, Baity 3-6 3-5 9, Smith 0-1 0-0 0, Kaufman 0-2 0-0 0, Frilling 1-2 0-1 2. TOTALS: 18-53 7-12–49.
michigan tech (4-2, 2-1 GLIAC)
Haidar 7-14 8-9 22, Culy 2-4 2-3 7, Armga 5-10 5-5 16, Brown 1-2 1-1 3, Stelzer 2-7 2-2 7, Chartier 0-1 0-0 0, Hecht 0-1 0-0 0, Heller 0-0 0-0 0, Romback 4-6 1-2 11. TOTALS: 21-45 19-22–66.
HALFTIME: Michigan Tech, 27-24.
3-Point GOALS: Findlay 6-24 (Heagan 4-5, Robinson 2-6, Baity 0-1, Smith 0-1, Kaufman 0-1, Piehl 0-2, Kahlig 0-4, Samsel 0-4); Michigan Tech 5-19 (Romback 2-4, Armga 1-1, Culy 1-3, Chartier 0-1, Hecht 0-1, Haidar 0-3).

The Japan Meteorological Agency said the earthquake had a preliminary magnitude of 7.3 and struck in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Miyagi prefecture at 5:18 p.m. (0818 GMT). The epicenter was 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) beneath the seabed.
After the quake, which caused buildings in Tokyo to sway for at least several minutes, authorities issued a warning that a tsunami potentially as high as 2 meters (2.19 yards) could hit. Ishinomaki, a city in Miyagi, reported that a tsunami of 1 meter (1 yard) hit at 6:02 p.m. (0902 GMT).
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of a widespread tsunami.
Miyagi prefectural police said there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries from the quake or tsunami, although traffic was being stopped in some places to check on roads.
Shortly before the earthquake struck, NHK television broke off regular programming to warn that a strong quake was due to hit. Afterward, the announcer repeatedly urged all near the coast to flee to higher ground.
The magnitude-9.0 earthquake and ensuing tsunami that slammed into northeastern Japan on March 11, 2011, killed or left missing some 19,000 people, devastating much of the coast.
Immediately following Friday's quake, there were no problems at any of the nuclear plants operated by Fukushima Dai-Ichi operator Tokyo Electric Power Co., said a TEPCO spokesman, Takeo Iwamoto.
Associated Press writer Yuri Kageyama contributed to this report.

This is probably a really stupid question, but I can't find an answer elsewhere. Should you/do you add anything to your bud vases to help support the longevity of your cut roses? If there is an additive out there, what do you use and where can I find it? Any insight would be appreciated, Scott in PA |

I am so thankful you asked this question and I look forward to the responses. I just bought some tulips and was told to put a penny in the vase to lengthen the life so I know they are many tips out there. One of the joys of my rose garden is to have cut flowers throughout my house. |

Here is a very recent scientific study: "The results showed that combination of silver nitrate and thyme was effective in improving the flower weight and diameter of cut roses by increasing the uptake of preservative solution and also reducing the wilting of flowers and leaves." |
Here is a link that might be useful: link for above
Try a splash of lemon-lime soda. More people are likely to have that sitting around the house than silver nitrate. The active ingredients as far as cut flowers go are citric acid and sugar. |

Here is a link that might be useful: surprise link
I put 1 tsp sugar in a vase last year and it did prolong the life of the bloom but also turned a red Mister Lincoln bloom purple...lol |

Thank you all for the suggestions. Lemon Lime soda sounds like a viable option. However, the prescription drug would be costly. LOL! |

Went to start Gateway XP laptop (5 yrs old but was working great till this morning) this morning and black screen came up with scrolling bar with Microsoft Windows words under bar. Desktop would not come up. Rebooted. then got Fatal Sys Erro 0x00000000 (0xC0000221, 0x00100440). The system has been shut down.
Tried to reboot in safe mode by hitting F8. Safe mode started loading windows files....by got hung up. Said "please wait", but nothing else happened. This is my work computer (I work from home) and looking for some kind of instruction on what to do next. I'm typing this from a very old slow desktop, so at least I have some kind of communication. PS: No new programs have been installed except WinPatrol 2 weeks ago. Anyone have advice? Help. Thx |
Follow-Up Postings:
Try starting in safe mode but select Start in last known good configuration or words similar to that. Failing that click to start in safe mode and select command prompt then if successful type sfc /scannow noting ths space after sfc and the use of double 'n' |
Correction. This laptop has Vista. |
I clicked on "last known config". Now I have the black screen with the scrolling bar with MS Corp under the bar. Nothing else is happening except the bar keeps scrolling. |
After several minutes of the scrolling bar, finally the "checking file system on C" (CHKDSK) finished verifying. Now the bar has been scrolling for 10 minutes... |
Debbie do you have your data backed up? You might go here and follow the instructions for a repair install of your Vista program. This should then check the Windows installation correcting any problems. If that does not cure it then perhaps read the other 2 articles linked below those instructions. |
So, now I'm in major panic mode. I let the scrolling bar go and it ran through CHKDSK twice, now I have the blue screen with fatal sys error c000021a. The inital session process or sys process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0x00000000 (0xc0000221, 0x00100440). The sys has been shut down. Owist. I just look thru my thumb drives for backups and found one from June (not sure how thorough it is). I know I've backed up my files several times since then...latest 2 months ago I think, but I don't see them. Unfortunately, my Quickbooks, which is most important, which I know I backed up after reconciling last statement (Sept) is not appearing. |
OK so if you shut down entirely (not restart) and start up again how far along can you go? If you can get to where the safe mode offers options try the last known or I think Vista has a repair option in that list too. |
I'm able to get to Windows Error Recovery. I saw an option for "repair your computer" before it went to black and scrolling bar which is where it is not. Should I reboot to safe mode and click on repair computer or something else? Thx for your help. |
I'd like to try to recovery my files (somehow) before the last resort of re-installing the Op sys which I do have a disc. |
Of course you want to save the data. Did you try the link in my 11.11 post? Take note of the shut down suggestion in the later post too, that can improve things at times. |
If I insert the Operating sys disk to repair issues, will it erase all my files? |

debi this forum I am going to link to is the best on the internet for helping with blue screens and that type of problem the team here is wonderful. Start a post in the area I link to and tell what is happening with your system. |
No, not if you follow those instructions in the link. I understand your fear on that point, I had lived that experience. This was why I asked about data back up, to raise your awareness of that situation. If you opt to re-install then yes, everything gets wiped off but there will be a warning before it happens and you will be required to agree to proceed. If the exercise so far has got you flustered or frustrated then walk away untill you feel calmer. We need cool and calm and you will do just fine. Remember to worry about just one question or action at a time as you proceed. |
The startup repair only took a few minutes to finish. Found one issue (not sure what it was). Said successfully fixed. I kept the startup disc in drive and rebooted. I did not "hit any key" to start the disk, but rather, wanted to see if it would start normally (without using disk). The scrolling bar scrolled for 8-10 minutes, then a dark screen for 5+ minutes. I now have a blue screen with the same C000021a fatal error. Raven, thanks. I registered, by don't see anywhere to "add post". Owbist....THANKS SO MUCH, but it appears it didn't fix anything unless I did something wrong. |

Start your Own thread in the area I linked to that is the correct place for your problem. |
Raven, I'm aware that I have to start my own thread in the link you provided, but there isn't a place that I can find to "start my own thread". |
Ran another repair and it said the root cause found is "System volume on disk is corrupt". |
OK so if you can get to the options in safe mode select the command prompt then type sfc /scannow noting the space after sfc and the double 'n' and hit Enter. The computer will use the System File Checker (sfc) to look for and replace corrupt files. You may be asked to insert the CD with Vista on it depending on the search |

Hi, Debi. Ravencajun pointed me to your problems since I am an Admin at Sysnative.com (the forum she pointed you to for help). Regarding System Repair, it often needs to run three times in order to complete the repair. The first time you run it, it attempts to repair any system level corruption via SFC /SCANNOW (this is also why sfc /scannow cannot be run directly and has to be run offline if a startup repair is still pending). The second time it runs, it checks the hard disk for bad sectors and a corrupted file system. This is usually the longer of the three runs. The third time it runs, it tries to use a system restore point to replace a possibly damaged registry. Generally it is at least the second or third run that it also runs the bootrec.exe tools. As to posting at Sysnative in the BSOD help forum, have you registered there, perhaps as DKK? The first thing you'll need to do is prepare the reports needed to analyze what is causing the BSOD's. The instructions are in the topic linked below. After that is completed, as Ravencajun said,there is an "Add new Post" link. After you explain what is happening, further down you'll see "Manage attachments" so you can easily browse to and attach the requested information. |
Here is a link that might be useful: BSOD Posting Instructions
Owist, from safe mode and the command prompt you indicate, it starts to load files then gets hung up only to give a blue screen w/ the original fatal sys error shown in orig post. Can't seem to get to a prompt to key in snannow text. Corrine, thx. Will try running sys repair once more. Took it to a computer store and they couldn't find a restore point though I just did one less than 2 weeks ago. I didn't feel comfy leaving puter with them, ESP since all my financial pas swords r on the drive. Never been to them and didn't get good vibe. sorry for tyypos, using a small tablet. |

As I posted, Debi, you may need to run System Repair two more times. Hopefully that will be enough to repair the system so you can back up your Quickbooks. |
Corrine, it says I do not have privledges to post. I am DKK. |
Yes, I've run it twice, repair guy ran once, and I'm running it now to attempt repairs. These runs where done in the past 4 hours or so trying to figure this out. Not all exactly back-to-back, one right after another, but close. |
Ran sys repair again and took a lot longer. Got a message saying startup repair can not repair this computer automatically. I'm at an "Administration: x:\windows/system32\cmd.exe prompt. The command prompt is X:\Sources> Wondering if I can do the scannow here? |
At the X:\Sources> I tried sfc \scannow. Got a bunch of text that tells me that it scans the integrity of all protected sys files, but didn't do anything more. At the bottom of all text it says: sfc /scannow Not sure if that means anything. |

Hi, Debi. I'm glad you were able to get your thread started. See the reply in your thread at Sysnative. If you have any problems following the instructions, please be sure to ask in your thread for additional guidance. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Debi's Topic at Sysnative
Will tackle the instructions this weekend. Looks complicated and nervous about not understanding instructions. Main concern is getting files off the computer. Looking for new laptop today. |
- Posted by corrine_mvp (My Page) on Sat, Nov 10, 12 at 18:07
Don't forget what writhziden said: "post back as you proceed through that guide if you have any questions. Let us know after each step what the results were so we can decide whether to provide further steps." You're not alone. |
fwiw I've run startup repair on win7 a few times. It needs to be run back to back without trying to boot into windows, or it looses count and runs the same first run repair process each time. With my laptop, when startup repair finishes and restarts the computer, then I have to push my boot from cd key quickly again or its lost that ability to count. And it aways says something about 'startup repair can not repair this computer automatically' I assume it says this because nothing was wrong. I just wanted my partition tables/names microsoft style after using a 3rd party tool to resize partitions. |
Mikie, thanks for making that clear regarding they need to be three back-to-back repairs. I wasn't hitting the push to boot from cd key since I thought the computer needed to "see" if it would open Windows normally, which it never did. Corrine, I haven't done anything yet other than buy a new laptop (crashed one is 5+ yrs old so I was due anyway). With the help of tech person, was able to get files off the crashed system and on to the new one, but have not tried to troubleshoot the old yet. As mentioned to Mikie, after I get this new laptop settled with my business stuff, I will put the time in to trying the "repair" three consecutive time and will report back. |
If it were me and I had removed all my data from the old computer I would forget the repair and wipe the drive returning the computer to factory settings. All broken links and corrupt files are then wiped off and everything is squeaky clean. This would be after I had got the new computer running as I wanted it of course and had time to play. That is assuming you have a recovery partition or recovery DVD to work with. |
Yes Owist..I was actually thinking the same thing after typing my previous post. I do have a CD to work with. And, I had restore media created for this new computer since it didn't come with any. Thanks everyone. |

Fantastic small bowl for sauces and dips. Holds up well over time-chip resistant. Mixes and matches with Fiesta colors! Note: I own sunflower, tangerine and peacock, but the insides match the outside color rather than being white as depicted in the stock photo.

THE former GSU officer at the centre of the acrimonious divorce between former minister Raphael Tuju and his estranged wife has been arrested in a dramatic night swoop.
Tony Ogunda was arrested on Thursday night after Tuju called the police to his Upper Hill home to report he had found his wife's lover at 9pm standing by a window in the compound.
Yesterday at Kilimani Police Station, Ogunda claimed that Tuju ordered bodyguards to beat him during the confrotnatiopn.
Ogunda and Tuju's wife Ruth Wanjare claimed he came home with bodyguards, forced their way into the house and assaulted both of them.
Ogunda told reporters that Ruth had invited him home after he had arrived back from Nakuru. He claimed that one of Tuju's bodyguards held a gun to his head while the former minister punched and kicked him.
However Tuju dismissed the claims of assault as desperate lies.
Ogunda is Tuju's former driver from his days as Information minister between 2003-2007 in the Kibaki Cabinet.
Tuju said they arrested Ogunda and called the police because the night visit breached a court order barring him from setting foot in any of Tuju's homes in Karen, Upper Hill, Bondo or his business premises. Tuju's pilot son Mano, 26, lives in the Upper Hill home.
"I did not assault the man who trespassed into my house. He cooperated then I called in the police to arrest him. As you may be aware ,we already have a divorce case with my wife pending in court and there is an order restraining him from coming to my home or any of my premises," Tuju said.
"To put the record straight, I did not assault him, all that he has said are all false claims," he said
"If I was any other man who does not respect the law ,I am sure I would have done something which the law prohibits but I decided to call the police to do their work," he said.
Ogunda told the police that he went to the house in the hope of persuading Tuju to lift the orders, but Tuju told reporters he had no appointment with Ogunda and was not interested in engaging him in talks.
"I took photographs of him within my premise, which I will use as evidence in court," he said.
Ogunda insisted he was assaulted by the former minister and his bodyguards.
"Yesterday I was from Nakuru and went to Mrs Tuju's house. I do not know if it was a trap because it was not even five minutes after I arrived that he broke in the door and windows, came in with his security, and started harassing and beating us up," he claimed.
"He (Tuju) was the main character while one of his guards was holding a gun to me," he said.=
"It was not trespassing because I was invited, that is not trespass – I was invited by Mrs Tuju," he said.
Tuju has filed a divorce case against his wife whom he accuses of infidelity.
In his sworn affidavit, he said that he can no longer live with his wife Ruth Akinyi Wanjare since she has been openly cheating on him with the former GSU officer.
Tuju and Ruth married on November 15, 1986 and have three children.
In his divorce petition, Tuju claimed that Ruth brought Tony to his home in Karen and rented him an apartment in Ngong
"Sometime in the year 2011 I learnt that my wife was adulterous and had become very abusive and disrespectful to an extent of playing her adulterous life even at the knowledge of my children and workers.
While I was away from home attending official and business duties, wherein I am mostly required to be out of the country or when I am away in politics, I learnt that my wife had a partner boyfriend who she used to commit adultery with," said Tuju in his court documents filed by Laichena Mugambi & Company Advocates.
"I can confirm that we received a complaint from Honourable Raphael Tuju that yesterday, at about 9 pm, a man who has a restraining order not to enter the home had trespassed. We sent officers to the residence and indeed found the suspect who was arrested and is now being held in custody as we conduct investigations. He will be arraigned in court as soon as the investigations are complete,"said Kilimani police boss Bernard Muli.
Ogunda was yesterday charged at the Kibera courts with trespass and released on a Sh500 bond.

Hi all,
I'm trying to add some solar air heating to my older house and I need some advice. I saw a simple design for a vertical Thermosiphoning air panel (TAP) in a book and I thought it might be interesting to try making one on the south side of my house. I have a nice double paned sliding glass door (76x35 inches) to use for the glazing and I thought I might be able to use this to both replace an old window and make a TAP. So my question is, if I'm using this sliding door to make a larger window does it make sense to make the bottom half into a TAP and leave the top half open to see out or would I get the same heat game if I just made one big tall window without the TAP on the bottom half? You can see a similar TAP on the web here:
Thanks for any advice,
