FOIL Request received
Yesterday, after I blogged about the article found in the Times Union, I received the FOIL request for the water study done by CHA Consulting, all 70 pages. At first glance, there appears to be a "Capital Cost" blacked out. Why, I don't know. Why I had to submit a FOIL (Freedom Of Information Law) […]

Unirea Urziceni 1-3 Liverpool - Match report
Liverpool avoided a potential Europa League embarrassment in Romania as they came from behind to book their place in the last 16 with a 3-1 win over Unirea Urziceni.
Shaky defending from set-pieces in the first half saw the Reds fall behind to Bruno Fernandes' header in the 19th minute and for a while they looked rattled.
However, Javier Mascherano from long-range, and Ryan Babel from close, turned things around before the interval, and Steven Gerrard's 33rd European goal wrapped up a 4-1 aggregate win following their 1-0 victory back at Anfield.

The Cambodian and Thai prime ministers held talks - mediated by Indonesia's president - as part of efforts to hammer out a lasting cease-fire, but neither seemed willing to give ground.
Southeast Asian leaders made little headway Sunday in helping Thailand and Cambodia end a deadly border dispute that could undermine peace and stability in the region as it pushes for economic integration.
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN, was also poised to agree to Myanmar taking over the rotating chair as scheduled in 2014 despite doubts about the country's human rights record, according to draft statement seen by The Associated Press.
The Cambodian and Thai prime ministers held talks - mediated by Indonesia's president - as part of efforts to hammer out a lasting cease-fire, but neither seemed willing to give ground.
"There's no conclusion," Thai Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya told reporters after the trilateral meeting, providing no details. "We'll need further talks after this."
During the plenary session between ASEAN leaders Saturday, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen called a demand by Thailand to withdraw troops from the area "irrational and unacceptable."
"It's Thailand that has to withdraw its troops from the vicinity," he said, warning that unless ASEAN stepped in, the border dispute could undermine many of the regional grouping's loftier goals of achieving economic integration by 2015.
And returning to his earlier stance, Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said the dispute, which has claimed nearly 20 lives in the last two weeks, should be settled between the two countries alone.
Also on the agenda of the two-day ASEAN summit that wraps up on Sunday was Myanmar's bid to take over the rotating chair of the 10-member regional grouping in 2014 - which appeared set for approval.
A draft of the ASEAN chairman statement says Southeast Asian leaders "consented to the proposal."
The regional grouping is supposed to rotate the post every year between its 10 member countries.
Myanmar was forced to skip its turn in 2005, however, after coming under heavy pressure from the international community over slow progress on national reconciliation and human rights.

The Yard Guard certainly got their attention because they got very active. If/when I reapply, I'll start near the house and move away in segments. I believe they had been "trapped" between the slab, the sidewalk and the pool. I think they were having trouble finding a way out.

2015 Mazda Mazda5
- 2014 Mazda Mazda5
- Used Mazda Mazda5
in Minivans
Mazda Mazda5 Review
The 2015 Mazda Mazda5 ranks 5 out of 7 Minivans. This ranking is based on our analysis of published reviews and test drives of the Mazda Mazda5, as well as reliability and safety data.
While the 2015 Mazda5 can't match the cargo capacity of its rivals, it gets great fuel economy, and critics love its agile handling.
With the best combination of positive reviews and long-term ownership costs in its class, the Mazda5 is our 2015 Best Minivan SUV for the Money.
Auto writers say the 2015 Mazda5's four-cylinder engine provides sufficient power for city driving, but feels slow when it's climbing hills or fully loaded with passengers and cargo. The 2015 Mazda5 gets an EPA-estimated 21/28 mpg city/highway, which is very good for the class. Test drivers say the Mazda5 has surprisingly sharp handling, especially for a minivan, and they appreciate its responsive steering system. The Mazda5 also has a tight turning radius, critics say, which makes it easier to maneuver in small spaces. Reviewers note that the Mazda5 has a firmer ride than other minivans, though they don't think it's uncomfortable.
The 2015 Mazda5 has a simple, modern cabin design, according to automotive journalists, though some complain that the plastic trim pieces in the Mazda5's interior seem a little low-rent. While the Mazda5's cargo area is small for the class, critics appreciate the wide variety of storage cubbies in the cabin. Test drivers note that the front seats are comfortable, though some think they could use a little more legroom. They say the second-row seats offer plenty of head- and legroom, but the third row is only large enough for children. Standard features in the six-seat 2015 Mazda5 include a six-speaker audio system, an auxiliary audio input, a USB port and automatic climate control. Available features include leather upholstery, heated front seats, satellite radio, Bluetooth, a moonroof and rear parking sensors. The Mazda5 has fewer available features than most minivans, which reviewers note could hurt its appeal among some buyers. Still, many critics appreciate the Mazda5's simple design and easy-to-use interior controls.
- "Unlike many modern full-size people haulers, the compact Mazda5 lives up to its minivan billing with compact dimensions, a versatile interior and nimble driving dynamics." -- Left Lane News
- "The sporty 2015 Mazda 5 is a good option for small families who don't need all the space and amenities of a full-size minivan but still want three rows of seating." -- Edmunds
- "If the idea of a minivan appeals to you, but you don't need the added bulk in your life, then the 2015 Mazda5 may just be the ticket." -- Kelley Blue Book
- "Based on the Mazda 3 architecture, the 5 is a practical, comfortable, well-appointed, and fuel-efficient minivan—as well as being sporty and fun to drive. It might not be large enough for large families, and the sliding doors will likely turn off SUV fans, but the 5 brings mini back to minivans." -- Car and Driver (2012)
Other Minivans to Consider
The Dodge Grand Caravan has almost the same starting price as the Mazda5, and reviewers note that its standard V6 engine is quite powerful. The Grand Caravan also has a much larger cargo area than the Mazda5, and auto writers appreciate its optional Stow n' Go second- and third-row seats, which fold flat into the floor to expand the cargo area.
The completely redesigned Kia Sedona can seat eight and it has a lot more cargo space than the Mazda5. Critics love the Sedona's attractive, upscale cabin design, and it's available with more standard features than the Mazda5, including navigation and blind spot monitoring.
Compare the Mazda5, Grand Caravan and Sedona »
Details: 2015 Mazda Mazda5
The 2015 Mazda5 seats six and comes in Sport, Touring and Grand Touring trims. It has a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a five-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. The Mazda5 hasn't changed much since its last redesign for the 2012 model year. As a result, this overview uses applicable research and reviews from the 2012 through 2015 model years.

Craigslist posts advertise bogus condo complex
POSTED: Tuesday, July 13, 2010 - 4:55pm
UPDATED: Tuesday, July 13, 2010 - 5:19pm
BATON ROUGE (WVLA)-- Recent posts advertising for one bedroom condos are popping up on the popular website Craigslist.
Ads show the rooms are on the 11th and 12th floors.
Trouble is, the address on the post is bogus.
So, anyone interested in the condos turn to the Riverview Condo complex next door.
The Better Business Bureau warns the motive could be anything from e-mail hacking to identity theft.

The Canon VIXIA HF R200 Flash Memory Camcorder is an entry-level high definition camera that's packed full of user-friendly features. Record your memories with the help of the camera's 3.28MP CMOS sensor, Genuine Canon HD Video Lens, and the DIGIC DV III Image Processor. Two memory card slots, holding SD/SDHC or SDXC cards, provide the ability to capture hours of footage on end without having to change cards, not to mention painless transfer and storage of your files.
The HF R200's 3.0" touch panel LCD is a generous platform with which to record and review your videos. Other features like 28x Advanced zoom and Dynamic Image Stabilization give you the tools you need to capture clear, steady footage. Other features like Touch Decoration, which lets you superimpose and record fun images with your video help you make your movies truly unique. And features like face detection, Smart Auto, and Focus Assist ensure that your videos will look their best because the camera sets itself to the capture footage for your particular needs. Other notable features of the camera include an HDMI terminal for one cable connection to your HDTV or monitor, and microphone and headphone connections for enhanced audio capture.- Flash Memory
The VIXIA HF R200 allows you to record crisp high definition video to two removable SD memory cards. With Relay Recording, the camcorder automatically switches video recording from one SD memory card to the other when the memory becomes full. No need then to worry about running out of recording time during a thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime shot. With SDXC memory card compatibility, you'll have card storage capacity from more than 32GB up to 2TB and ultra-fast data transfer speeds.
You'll also have the flexibility of copying video from one removable SD card in your VIXIA HF R200 to another. You can easily insert one of the cards into your computer or HDTV's card reader and view your recorded footage immediately.
The advantages of flash memory go beyond the added recording time. You'll also appreciate the quick response time, because there are no moving parts. Press the record button and your VIXIA HF R200 starts recording video faster than you've ever seen before. In addition, when you review, you'll have quick access to your footage
- Low Power Consumption
- Another plus is the VIXIA HF R200's low power consumption rate, allowing your battery to last longer. It's just what you need so you don't miss that pivotal play on the field or the moment when they say "I do"
- Ultra-Sleek and Compact
- Ultra-sleek, compact, and lightweight, the VIXIA HF R200 is, at approximately 9.5 ounces and 2.4 x 2.4 x 4.8", a companion you'll always keep handy while traveling or at home
- Shock Resistant
- While we certainly hope you keep your VIXIA HF R200 securely in your hand while shooting, if it happens to slip, or you accidentally knock it against something, you'll be happy to know that flash memory makes your camcorder more shock resistant than other recording storage systems. It minimizes the chance of data loss if you accidentally jolt or drop your camcorder
- Canon 3.2MP Full HD CMOS Image Sensor
- Canon's expertise in imaging technology is clearly seen in its superb EOS Digital SLR cameras. The VIXIA family of camcorders is also a part of this achievement with Canon's own Full HD CMOS Image Sensor. It brings stunning high definition video quality with exceptional low light performance, capturing video at 1920 x 1080 resolution and with remarkable detail
- Genuine Canon HD Video Lens with 28x Advanced Zoom
- A Genuine Canon HD Video Lens with 28x Advanced Zoom delivers truly impressive image quality. Its aspherical lens minimizes spherical aberration, meaning sharper focus on your subject. With Advanced Zoom, you can seamlessly zoom both wide and long, retaining optical quality throughout the zoom range. The zoom is quiet, and optimized for flash camcorders
- Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor
- Together with the Canon Exclusive 3.2MP HD CMOS Image Sensor and Canon's own DIGIC DV III Image Processor, this lens helps you capture high definition video and photos with astonishing detail, vivid color and enhanced reproduction of the full tonal range, including the most difficult purple and blue shades
- 24Mbps Recording
- With 24Mbps recording, video is captured at the highest bit rate in AVCHD. You get exceptionally lifelike tone and exacting detail
- Dynamic IS
- With the Canon VIXIA HF R200, you can be sure that even on the move your video will be smooth, steady and professional looking. The Dynamic IS system provides continuous adjustment throughout the entire zoom range to correct a broader range of motion. In comparison to conventional electronic image stabilization systems, extra compensation is applied at wide-angle focal lengths to eliminate unwanted vibration common when shooting while walking
- 3.0" Touch Panel LCD
- See exceptional detail with a sharp 230,000 dot screen delivering brilliant color together with touch panel control for faster and easier menu navigation. Touch Focus lets you tap the subject on the touch panel to shift the focus for recording. It's that simple. You have Touch & Track, which allows you to get precise focus and exposure on any subject, people, vehicles, fast moving athletes and more, by selecting your choice right on the touch panel LCD. Touch Exposure adjusts the exposure on the area of your image where you touch and sets the brightness needed. You may also drag on the panel to adjust the level
- Touch Decoration
- While shooting, Touch Decoration can be activated via the Touch Panel LCD, allowing you to superimpose and record a variety of fun and exciting images along with your video. Animations such as shooting stars, thought bubbles, and others, freehand drawing, stamps, and various decorative frames can be added to give your video an amusing and creative flair
- Smart Auto
- Smart Auto makes shooting great video easier than ever before. Using the power of Canon's DIGIC DV III Image Processor, the VIXIA HF R200 intelligently detects and analyzes faces, brightness, color, distance, and movement, then automatically selects the best settings for the scene. Whether you are capturing a sunset, a day at the beach, or a fast-paced soccer game, Smart Auto delivers exceptionally accurate results
- Tele Macro
- And with new Tele Macro, the VIXIA HF R200 automatically zooms the lens to the telephoto end and sets the minimum object distance to approximately 1.3 feet (from 3.3 feet) giving you the opportunity to shoot spectacular close-ups with the dramatic look of shallow depth of field. Tele Macro is one of 38 scenes available in Smart Auto Mode
- Genuine Canon Face Detection
The same high quality Face Detection technology used in Canon digital cameras is available in Canon high definition camcorders. Up to 35 faces can be tracked automatically, ensuring razor-sharp focus and natural, accurate exposure. Of the faces tracked, 9 detection frames can be displayed at one time.
In fact, the system is so intelligent that it will recognize faces turned downwards or sideways. In addition, a specific face may be selected as the main subject for continuous tracking. This feature is convenient in searching for clips which feature that specific subject's face. In search and playback, use of the Face Index will display those frames with the chosen face as a thumbnail in each shot in which it appears. Your selected face can also be linked as a timeline to further identify footage containing your subject
- Advanced Video Snapshot
- Advanced Video Snapshot allows you to capture the highlights of a once in a lifetime trip or a family milestone with the same ease as taking photos. Simply record a series of short video clips - or select your favorite clips while in Playback Mode - and blend in your favorite background music to create an exciting movie that will hold everyone's attention. This version of Advanced Video Snapshot allows selectable recording time of 2, 4, or 8 seconds. Additionally, audio from an external source, such as an MP3 player, can be played along with the snapshot movie, and playback can be controlled from that source
- Easy Web Sharing
- The VIXIA HF R200 is also compatible with the Eye-Fi SD memory card. It's possible to wirelessly transfer video and photos to your computer, or upload them directly to online sharing sites (e.g., Facebook, YouTube, Shutterfly, Flickr) in a few simple steps. Insert an Eye-Fi SD memory card into the SD card slot on the camcorder, configure your computer to select the target site and you're ready to share your files with family, friends, and the world! 1
- Built-In 3.0MP Digital Camera
Since Canon is acknowledged as a world leading maker of digital cameras, it's not surprising that the VIXIA HF R200, in addition to being a brilliant camcorder, is also a very capable digital camera. Once again, Canon delivers features and technology that advance convenience and capability
The VIXIA HF R200 comes with a Level Marker feature to keep your camera level for more professional-looking photos. The VIXIA HF R200's Grid Marker feature lets you compose your shot accurately, according to the grid in your viewfinder. You can even choose from two different colors for the grid ensuring that you see the grid, no matter what the background color of your shot is.
The versatile VIXIA HF R200 even lets you capture a still image from an already recorded movie. While playing the movie in your camcorder, simply press the photo button to capture a 1920 x 1080 still image onto an SD card or to internal memory. Additionally, the VIXIA HF R200 allows you to capture 30 photos from one second of video. Now, better photos, filled with action and expressions, are easy to grab, print, post and share
- 24p & 30p Frame Modes
24p Cinema Mode enables all aspiring moviemakers to achieve a professional "film-look." You can change the camcorder's frame capture rate to 24p (recorded at 60i), which provides the appearance of the same frame rate as movie film. In addition, you can use the VIXIA HF R200's CINE mode, which changes the color and tonal characteristics, evoking the look and feel of a movie shown in a theater. For added flexibility, these settings can be used together or independently.
You would normally have to look to professional video cameras in order to find a sophisticated tool like 30p Progressive Mode at your command. In addition to the standard interlaced video frame rate of 60i, you may choose to set the VIXIA HF R200 to capture video in 30p, (30 progressive frames, recorded to 60i) which is particularly useful for footage to be used on the Internet. It's also excellent for action and sports shots. In addition, this setting gives enhanced quality to photos captured after recording
- Terminals & Audio
To maximize the usefulness and versatility of the VIXIA HF R200, you'll find a range of terminals to extend the capabilities of your camcorder. Easy, one-cable connectivity to your HDTV is achieved through the VIXIA HF R200's HDMI Terminal which also supports CEC and x.v.Color. A Mini HDMI Cable is included with the camcorder. This camcorder also features 1080p output, converting 1080i video to 1080p through the HDMI terminal.
A microphone terminal with manual audio level control and a Headphone terminal provide exceptional audio adaptability. For the ultimate in flexibility, the VIXIA HF R200 is compatible with the optional Canon wireless microphone WM-V1.

Use it to record audio from a distant subject, or as a transceiver to cue shooting from a third party
- Focus Assist
- To enhance focusing capability, the VIXIA HF R200 also features Focus Assist. This helps in capturing your subject in razor-sharp focus. It works by providing a 2x magnification of your subject, which is automatically cancelled when you start recording. This is a feature normally found in professional broadcast-quality cameras
- Filter Threads

- Built-In Electronic Lens Cover
- The built-in electronic lens Cover means you never have to go looking for your lens cover again. Turn your camcorder on and the lens cover automatically opens. Turn it off, and the cover closes. It couldn't be simpler
- Intelligent Battery
- The Intelligent lithium-ion battery accurately indicates remaining battery time down to the minute
- Quick Start
- Never miss a quickly unfolding shot again, as it's possible to shoot the moment the LCD is opened. No worries about using up power with Quick Start - by keeping the LCD screen closed between shots, Quick Start allows you to save battery power so you get longer battery life

- The Pre-Record feature places your VIXIA HF R200 in a stand-by "pre-roll" mode. With this feature the camcorder continuously records three seconds of video to memory before you even press the record button. When you start recording, the additional video is recorded too. It will be easier than ever to capture the moment when the bat hits the ball at the start of that home run
- Pixela Video Browser Software
Pixela Video Browser software is bundled with the VIXIA HF R200. You can easily perform a variety of functions, including AVCHD Editing in which you can trim, reorder, and combine scenes, as well as add music, titles, and transitions.

Chiefs involved in several intriguing matchups
Led by QBs Peyton Manning and Steve McNair, the Colts-Titans series has become one of the best in football.
Editor's note: ESPN senior NFL writer John Clayton's weekly "First And 10" column takes you around the league with a look at the best game of the week followed by primers for 10 other games. Here's a look at the season's best contests.
Having made the tour of NFL training camps, it's time to make adjustments in some earlier predictions.
Preseason predictions are often made on paper transactions. Until camps start, a team doesn't know how an acquisition is going to play until he is on the field. That's the benefit of seeing 19 teams in person and watching the rest on tape following the preseason games.
As a result, the Steelers and Jets are better than expected in the AFC. Though neither is a favorite to make the playoffs, both teams appear to be better on defense than advertised and can be seeded just a notch below the playoff teams. The Saints are an interesting team. Combine the offensive weapons with their defensive talent and you have a team that may be more talented than the Panthers.
Still, don't discount the Panthers. Their offensive line problems may stay with them all season, but their scheme may minimize the holes in their line. Offensive coordinator Dan Henning loves to max protect for his quarterback. Most of the time, the Panthers will be run-blocking. Picking between the Panthers and Saints for the division winner might be the toughest decision of all, but the Panthers get the edge because of the swagger they picked up last season going to the Super Bowl.
On the negative side, the Falcons offense looks challenged. Michael Vick had only 29 preseason plays, not enough to garner confidence he can smoothly run the West Coast offense he is trying to learn. Though this was projected to be a breakout season, they will struggle. Meanwhile, the Rams offensive line took severe hits and it shows. Without right tackle Kyle Turley and center Dave Wohlabaugh, it will be virtually impossible for Mike Martz to send everyone into routes without risking quarterback Marc Bulger to injury.
Those shifts and other observations caused adjustments in the long-term look at key games ahead in the preseason First And 10.
And 10. Oct. 4: Kansas City Chiefs at Baltimore Ravens -- The Ravens will be coming off three straight AFC North games and will have a great feel whether they have a lock on the division. Games against the Browns and Bengals are on the road, so if the Ravens can jump to a 3-0 start, they should cruise to the division title. It's going to be hard for the Bengals and Browns to beat them in Baltimore in November and early December and any team that goes 5-1 in a division should be in Super Bowl contention. The game against the Chiefs is their most attractive non-division home game. Plus, it's a night game with Deion "Prime Time" Sanders returning to the national spotlight. The Ravens have the league's best defense. The Chiefs counter with a potent offense, yet one that faces some obstacles. Kansas City is without wide receiver Marc Boerigter and tight end Kris Wilson and opens the season against four tough defenses -- Denver, Carolina, Houston and Baltimore. They will be looking forward to the Week 5 bye for a break and a chance to regroup. This game will also be a great test for Gunther Cunningham's revamped defense. Kyle Boller is the Chiefs first young quarterback on the schedule who hasn't established himself.
9. Nov. 14: Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers (rematch Dec. 24) -- It's still puzzling why the league scheduled this NFC North showdown so late. A year ago, the Vikings opened with a victory in Green Bay. It allowed them to get off to a 6-0 start. The Packers eventually caught them and won the division. It was clear from the outset that the Vikings were loaded. They are better on defense. Daunte Culpepper continues to develop as one of the league's most exciting quarterbacks. Waiting for the Packers and Vikings is like annually waiting for great TV shows such as 24, NYPD Blue and others that start later than others when the fall season opens. The Packers will be coming off a bye week, which will give them a chance to reflect on their first eight games. That could be a huge edge. Even though the Vikings have improved their defense with good young athletes, they don't have a lot of depth. Their bye week is Oct. 3. They will have five games before this Packers game, and they will be coming off a Monday night road game against the Colts. Ouch.
8. Oct. 31: Indianapolis Colts at Kansas City Chiefs -- Both teams might list their punters as inactive. It's an offensive showdown of two 4,000-yard quarterbacks and two offenses that can't be stopped. Both teams are still shaking their heads over last year's 38-31 playoff win by the Colts in Kansas City. Peyton Manning and Trent Green turned each possession into scoring drives and punters didn't have to do a thing. The Chiefs spent the offseason revamping their defense because of this game and a December loss in Minnesota. The league loves offense. Officials are expected to emphasis the rule prohibiting defensive backs from making contact with receivers after five yards. This could be one of the highest scoring games of the year.
6. Oct. 10: Miami Dolphins at New England Patriots (rematch Dec. 20) -- Usually, these matchups are headliners. The Patriots are the league's best team. No one knows about the Dolphins. They've changed four spots along the offensive line. Ricky Williams retired. David Boston was lost for the season and the Dolphins acquired Marty Booker from the Bears. This game will determine the early read on how those changes affect the Dolphins. Three of their first four games are at home, so they have a chance for a good start. If they start 1-3, this visit to New England could be their swan song. The Dolphins enter the season a desperate team. Dave Wannstedt is fighting for job security. But the Dolphins could come into Foxboro with some confidence this has a chance to be a great game.
5. Sept. 20: Minnesota Vikings at Philadelphia Eagles -- You'll notice this is the only reference to the Eagles. That's not an oversight. The Eagles are the favorites to win the NFC. They are clearly the best team in the NFC East. The reason for this game being picked over the rest is that it's one of the few in which they play a potential non-divisional playoff team. Look at their schedule. It's one of the strangest in football. They play only six games against teams that made the playoff last year -- at Carolina Oct. 17; Baltimore Oct. 31; Green Bay Dec. 5; at St. Louis Dec. 27; and Dallas (away Nov. 15 and home Dec. 19). They have only one division game before Nov. 15. Strange. That increases the magnitude of this game. If the Vikings play up to expectations, this could be a playoff preview. It should be a good one. Terrell Owens versus Randy Moss. Donovan McNabb versus Daunte Culpepper. It doesn't get better than that.
4. Sept. 17: Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins (rematch Sept. 27): It's no wonder ABC grabbed this one. It's Joe Gibbs versus Bill Parcells. More important for the Redskins, it's Joe Gibbs on his home turf. A lot of flashbacks will occur. Gibbs is a legend in Washington, D.C. He won three Super Bowls. He won with class. But Parcells epitomized last season what a great coach he is by taking a Jerry Jones team that finished 5-11 for three straight years and won 10 games. Parcells has a little bit more of a personal stamp on this team. Quarterback Vinny Testaverde, running back Richie Anderson and wide receivers Keyshawn Johnson and Terry Glenn all played for Parcells with other teams. This game would be ranked higher, but the Eagles are still the best in the division so it's an attractive meeting of two teams vying for second fiddle.
3. Sept. 26: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Oakland Raiders -- Jon Gruden returns to the Black Hole. He brings with him a bunch of former Raiders including Mr. Raider, Tim Brown. Raiders fans will be in full costume for this game. For Raiders fans, this will be personal. Gruden took away their hopes of winning a Super Bowl by beating his former team two years ago. The Raiders have gotten younger since that game because of good drafts. The Bucs brought in 13 players in free agency in their 30s, and they kept 12. Now, the Bucs have an older, Raider-like team. Warren Sapp starts on the Raiders defensive line and gets his first chance to go against the team he helped turn into a champion. This will be great television and great football.
2. Nov. 22: New England Patriots at Kansas City -- The Patriots actually got a few breaks in the schedule. Normally, Super Bowl teams are disrespected when the league hands out the schedule. The NFL loves to make it tough for teams to repeat. This year, things broke right for the Patriots. They get Indianapolis at home. They get Baltimore at home Nov. 28. The game against the Chiefs is the most attractive road game for the Patriots. The Chiefs have a high-powered offense and they expect to add weapons as the season advances. If the Chiefs are indeed one of the best in the conference, their offense needs to stand the test of facing the Patriots tricky 3-4 defense. It's a matchup of two low-key but great quarterbacks -- Trent Green and Tom Brady. Chiefs fans will decked in red and well-fed from all day tailgating.
1. Dec. 5: Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints (rematch Jan. 2) -- If my evaluation of the division is right, this might be the most interesting series to develop during the month of December. Say what you want about the Saints, but they are loaded with talent. Their three-receiver set of Joe Horn, Donte' Stallworth and Jerome Pathon is more explosive than the Panthers. While the Panthers have two very good backs in Stephen Davis and DeShaun Foster, the Panthers have a better one in Deuce McAllister. Aaron Brooks may be an enigma in December, but he is a talented quarterback. The sad part about this matchup is that it happens too late. The interesting part is that it happens in December and the series starts in New Orleans. Imagine the excitement if the Saints win this game and gain momentum heading into the final three weeks of the season. This could be the game that gains them a legitimate chance of winning the division. The matchup is interesting because of the offensive line problems of the Panthers, which may be even more pronounced by the end of the season. The Saints have three pass-rushers in Darren Howard, Charles Grant and Will Smith.

Still: We deserved our point
Dagenham manager John Still felt his side deserved a point from their 1-1 draw at home to Sheffield Wednesday.Gary Teale`s glancing header had given the Owls a half-time advantage, but Daggers levelled from the penalty spot after Darren Potter was controversially adjudged to have handled in the area by referee Steve Rushton.Still said: "We did most of the attacking without giving their goalkeeper too much trouble."I thought they defended fantastically well, I thought their work ethic was very good, but Sheffield Wednesday have come to Dagenham & Redbridge and played 4-5-1."They played 4-4-2 against Southampton last week and I think it just shows the measure of what we're creating at the moment."The boys worked incredibly hard, the work-rate from the first to the last minute was excellent."

Can your iPhone's digital footprints reveal your physical location?
Users of iPhones may be uniquely vulnerable to a new kind of cyberstalking that can reveal their real-life whereabouts, if they leave GPS and Wi-Fi activated.
Alexander F. Yuan / AP
An Australian computer-security expert has created an application that lets anyone see the locations of the last three Wi-Fi access points used by an Apple iPhone or iPad — information that could be used to deduce where the iOS device user lives.
Melbourne-based researcher Hubert Seiwert's iSniff GPS, now freely available for anyone to download and use, combines three different Apple iOS features.
None of the features pose any threat to privacy on their own, but when combined could tell strangers a lot about you.
"This could be used to locate ... where people live," Seiwert told SC Magazine.
Three's a crowdsource
The first feature Seiwert used is well-known. Apple iOS devices that have both Wi-Fi and GPS turned on send the names and locations of all Wi-Fi access points they encounter back to the Apple mothership. The devices don't need to be connected to a specific access point for this to happen.
This feature helps Apple's mapping services. Google does the same thing with Android devices. Users of both kinds of devices can turn the data-sharing off.

So I just stumbled upon a somewhat interesting DA user's profile. I won't share his identity publicly, but he's got a self-insert Sonic OC ("mobian hybrid/ werehog") that's pretty much the definition of a bad Sonic OC. He's Silver the Hedgehog's brother, he can turn into anything at will ("especially a werehog"), and not only is his accompanying picture a screenshot from a certain Furry Dollmaker (a fact he admits to freely!), but... well... just look at him (screenshot instead of direct link, so I don't leave a trail).
I can't just walk away from this (can I?). This is a prime example of how NOT to create a Sonic OC. This dude is just begging to be taught a lesson; however, I'm unsure of the best way to do it. He needs to learn the error of his ways, but I don't want to break him completely. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Now we all know you can refinish a gun in almost endless shades of bluing, you can get it nickel plated, chrome plated, even gold plated with diamond studded appointments (assuming you have the money and like that stuff), you can even bake on a finish of your own in your kitchen. But something I havent seen much of is Hydro-Dipping. This stuff is great and I got to witness part of the process and after affects of it when I toured a gunsmithing school in Trinidad, CO. The process is quite interesting and is also referred to as "water-printing" but is supposedly very durable as it had been used for years on motorcycles and vehicle parts. Check out the web-site for it and let me know what you guys think, because I plan to get one of my handguns (and probably a couple more) done in different designs with this method. The pictures in their gallery have some of the firearms they've done and they look pretty awesome.Water Transfer Printing / HydroGraphics / Camo Dipping

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Thursday, March 15, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Richmond County inspectors are now investigating four mysterious holes on a property near Millidgville Road after 12 On Your Side contacted them.
Elton Beasley, 64, fell into one of the holes in November.
"I called my roommate and he come out and got the the fire department to come get me out of the hole," he said.
He said he sprained his ankle and hurt his shoulder during the fall.
Beasley said workers started digging the holes five months ago but never came back to fill them in. The holes are about a foot wide and at least 6 feet deep.
"Well it's unsafe for any human being. Grown man, a child, whoever. Just unsafe," he said.
County officials said workers were most likely testing water in the ground. They say whoever owns the property is responsible for sealing off the holes.
The land was owned by the same man who ran "Craig's Place" until January, according to documents News 12 obtained. SunTrust Bank took over the property after it was foreclosed.
County officials are working with SunTrust to fix the holes.

Volunteer Opportunities
Food Fest Volunteer
We are currently we are seeking volunteers to provide meals (Food Fest) for our Friday night Drop-in-Center and occasional special events throughout the year (holidays, peer educators reunions and graduations, themed parties etc).

So the wife's little sister and her boyfriend were at the house when I got home today. I'm taking my car tomorrow so I grabbed the AR from behind the pick-up seat. I got to thinking that I hadn't run an oil patch thru the bore in months and took it into the house with me. I had just put my AR, main carry and back-up weapons on the table in my den when Mike, my probable future brother-in-law, came into the room. Now this guy has a CCW too and carries a SA 1911 Govt also. Thats why it surprised me when the first words out of his mouth were, "get'in kinda paranoid ain't ya pops". I really hadn't thought about it, most of the people I know carry a loaded rifle or shotgun behind their truck seat or in the trunk of their car. Mike doesn't and thought I was sort of over doing it. My CCW covers loaded long arms, exposed or concealed, it don't matter. I don't think I'm paranoid - handguns are great, but I do get the warm fuzzies knowing I can lay my hands on 200 rds of 5.56 and a rifle in a hurry if needed. So what ya think! Am I a sick puppy, (only about this topic please) or just well prepared. Anyone else use a rifle as part of their CCW weapons? Ken

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you. Sorry, just couldn't resist.
You don't do it
Hmm. On the one hand, paranoid. On the other, possibly dead. I'll take paranoid for the win.
"Condition White - Unaware and unprepared. If attacked in Condition White, the only thing that may save you is the inadequacy or ineptitude of your attacker. When confronted by something nasty, your reaction will probably be "Oh my God! This can't be happening to me." "Condition Yellow - Relaxed alert. No specific threat situation. Your mindset is that "today could be the day I may have to defend myself". You are simply aware that the world is a potentially unfriendly place and that you are prepared to defend yourself, if necessary. You use your eyes and ears, and realize that "I may have to shoot today". You don't have to be armed in this state, but if you are armed you should be in Condition Yellow"
Of course we have the old standby: "Better to have and not need than to need and not have."
Different scenarios call for different firearms. No paranoid, but (like a Boy Scount) prepared.
Amendment II: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Life Member NRA Life Member NAHC Former President of the ECPT (Eifel Combat Pistol Team)
Heard the story about the old boy that was pulled over for a license check? Trooper asked "Do you have any firearms?" "Yep, there's a Colt 45 in the glove box, and a 12 g pump and a 30-06 behind the seat of the truck." "Dang! What are you afraid of?" "Not a damned thing." My daughter once told a friend "My dad is not paranoid. He has no REASON to be paranoid. He has a gun."
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.

My company has a family day every year and this year it was at the Indianapolis Zoo. When I tried to remember the last time I went to a zoo, I realized it's probably been a good 15 years or so!
The Indianapolis Zoo is on 64 acres and had a good variety of animals. While I wish they all had bigger enclosures, I know that in order to fund these animals, they have to be somewhere where people can readily see them. I did get some good pictures though!
Have you been to a zoo recently? Going to this one made me want to go to the other 2 that are around us- the Louisville Zoo and the Cincinnati Zoo!

Apples and more apples
With the help of DH's creative writing class we got most of the apples put up before our trip to Baltimore but still had a few left. Yesterday, we made these six little tarts. Look at how tiny the apples are! It took 14 to make the tarts. They are so good - crisp & sweet, just itty-bitty. Still have enough left for a couple batches of oatmeal/apple muffins.
We can't eat a whole pie before it goes bad. I love these new pans. Perfect size for us to split. So far, we've made these apple pies plus pumpkin, blackberry, raspberry, and tomorrow we're going to put up half a dozen chicken pies.
tricia - Those are lovely little tarts... I'm another fan of tart pans, especially my fluted set with removable bottoms. I also have glass pie dishes that are 5-1/2" and 7-1/2". I get 4 small servings out of a 5-1/2" dish, which usually contains a 1/2-cup of fruit (which is a serving size) per slice. The 7-1/2" dishes are perfect for making half of any of the varieties of "Impossible Pie" recipes, and I'll use the 5-1/2" dishes for 1/4 of a recipe.
barnmom- Hint: If you have one of those gadgets you push through the apple that cores and slices it, I find it's quick and easier to peel each slice instead of the whole apple - especially when working with small apples, such as Jonathan. It's also easy to cut each slice into 2-3 slices if I want them thinner.
I have an apple peeler/corer/slicer from BB&B that I love and used it last week for an apple pie. It peels, cores, and slices an apple in less than a minute.
I don't have small pie pans, and so I also end up with more pie than DB and I can eat before it goes bad. A friend at work said that apple pie freezes well, and so I am going to try that with the next pie. Our tree is really loaded at the moment, but we'll juice most of the apples, just because it is faster, and we freeze the juice. Neither of us like apple jam or apple sauce, and even the juice is a bit too sweet for our tasts. I should probably mix it with tart juices, like cranberry. I would never have planted an apple tree, but it is nice to have. I have orchids, bromeliads, and hummingbird feeders hanging from it.
Those tarts are *adorable*! Surprising how quickly a pile of apples become just a few servings. My new favorite apples are Honey Crisps - a little less tart than a Granny Smith a nice thin snap-to-the-bite skin and firm flesh. I love 'em!
Hey didn't someone compile a CF apple cookbook a year or two back? I had it and then my pc crashed and I hadn't transferred it to the main (backed-up) drive in the basement. Butthead...
Love to have it again especially this time of year, anyone have it by chance?
Cookalong #16 was Apples. There are some good recipes there.
Here is a link that might be useful: Cookalong #16 in the FAQ
I have 2 mini pie pans (hand thrown ceramic) that are perfect for two!
I've also used the large muffin tins.
And, yes, apple pie freezes beautifully!
Surprisingly, so does cheesecake. :)

I went to the link you provided and read that the updated version 6.3 is an experimental LiveCD which may need tweaking, especially with the kernel options. I am starting fresh with a distro build and would kindly like to know if this version is something you would recommend to a first time distro builder? I do not know if "tweaking" is something I can accomplish at this stage if and when a problem arises. Perhaps it may not be a problem at all. I did read the "updated list" that included fixes and additions and would certainly like to utilize this updated liveCD version. Kindly please advise.

Money Bags: Beat the Gnome of Zurich (DOS)

Not an American user?
Money Bags is a game of international finance. You're given $1 million and a year of game time to try to make it grow. You can invest in foreign currencies, international stocks, international goverment bonds, gold, lumber, and commercial property. You'll have to keep an eye one current events and how they'll change the markets, exchange rates, stock values, real asset values, shipping costs, and more. In other words, it's an almost complete international finance simulator.The game has four skill levels. The higher the level, the more unpredictable and faster things happen. On any level but the lowest, you compete against the legendary "Gnome of Zurich," who's an international finance expert. The game does have a pause function, and you can also continue playing after your year is up. It also tracks the ten highest scores for each skill level.
There are no DOS screenshots for this game.

The manual instructs users to manually make disk one bootable by using the SYS command and then copying COMMAND.COM to it. (This was a common instruction given to gamers for some games written before 1990 -- not everyone had a hard drive, and doing this eliminated the need to keep a boot disk handy. --Ed.)

Breakfast comes to the classroom
NATIONAL NEWS (CNN) — Less than half of the children in America who are eligible for a free or reduced breakfast take advantage of the USDA-provided meal. A program called "Breakfast in the Classroom" is trying to get more lower-income students to eat breakfast.
The program, managed by a group of organizations known collectively as the Partners for Breakfast in the Classroom, brings food to the students in class after the morning bell. That way, students don't come to school early just to eat, and they aren't rushing to get to class, skipping breakfast on the way. The program was launched in five school districts around the country and expanding to include ten more this school year.
Research suggests that there are educational benefits to eating breakfast at school, even over students who eat the meal at home. These include better attendance, behavior and higher standardized test scores.
Knox County Schools in Tennessee, which opened its doors to students on August 14 is a newcomer to the in-classroom meal program .
Jon Dickl, the director of school nutrition for Knox County, told CNN that there are several advantages to eating breakfast in class. "The students are in their seats ready to learn as soon as the bell rings," Dickl said. "It reduces tardiness and discipline issues and provides an opportunity for teachers to develop relationships," he continued.
In Knox County, as in many other districts using the pilot program, all the students are served breakfast at no cost to the student, regardless of their family's income. Dickl said doing that increases the percentage of students who eat breakfast overall, and leads to social benefits. "Relationships are developed when people have food together," Dickl said.
High school students tell Dickl that instead of gravitating toward their friends as they would do in a cafeteria setting, the students are having conversations with students from their classes who they wouldn't talk to otherwise. "It's expanded their social network," Dickl said.
The district's teachers say they also benefit from eating with their students, by building relationships and incorporating lessons into the morning meal, according to Dickl. One Knox County high school practices ACT vocabulary words.
Dickl says Knox County is phasing in the program and expects to reach 11,000 students in 22 of its schools by mid-October. The district is serving breakfast at all grade levels, from elementary through high school.
A hot breakfast is always an option in Knox County. On the day CNN interviewed Dickl, whole grain sausage biscuit with a fruit cup was being served. On another day that week, Knox County offered students hot blueberry waffles with reduced-sugar syrup. Bagged cereals, apples, bananas, fruit juices and fat-free flavored milk or 1% milk are also delivered to classrooms daily.
Dickl says that most parents are in favor of the program, too. The only negative comments he's heard are from parents who are concerned that providing free breakfasts uses local tax money allocated for education. Dickl says that these parents are mistaken. Most school nutritional services departments in U.S., he says, are self sufficient. They rely on federal USDA money, state funds, and money that students spend on lunch. "We take no money locally and have to be financially sustainable," Dickl says.
Breakfast in the Classroom is run by Partners for Breakfast in the Classroom, which is funded by grants from the Walmart Foundation. The members of the partnership include the Food Research and Action Center, the National Association of Elementary School Principals Foundation, the National Education Association Health Information Network (NEA HIN), and the School Nutrition Foundation. NEA HIN provides training workshops for teachers who are incorporating the program into their classrooms.
