Tim Williams and Rivals how far do they move him up the board? Posted by Dudebro2 on 1/16 at 11:07 pm Ok now that TW is officially going to be a gump, you know what comes next is Rivals moving him up the board. You know Rivals will be all over it like a fat kid on a cup cake. My question is how much does Rivals upgrade him in their final rankings? They currently have him ranked #89, I bet those a**holes move him up at least 15 spots. Anyone else have a guess? This post was edited on 1/16 at 11:08 pm Reply Back to Top |
Posted by memphstigers23 on 1/16 at 11:15 pm to Dudebro2 I've joked about Tim Williams board, but I honestly think we need one now....geeeeezReply Back to Top |
I don't know but didn't they say he was the best player in the history of Louisiana? Or was that ESPN Reply Back to Top |

None, Mike Scumborough has his rivals La. Rankings out. He's 11th. 1,2,3 is White, Beckwith, and Smith if I remember right. Reply Back to Top |
It's okay to question rivals on their raking system and apparent bama bias. So is their a real bama bias or has rivals been pretty accurate? 3 out of the last 4 NCs for bama...rivals seems to be pretty accurate. Reply Back to Top |
quote: I fully expect TW to move up on the Rivals national rankings although the local guys who watch film etc have him 11. The biases are so annoying. KB commits to LSU and move in the ESPN rankings from 12 overall to 47. ESPN is the biggest joke and I wish 247 would not include them in thier composite rankings. Reply Back to Top |
quote: Bama is the media's obsession. They benefit from favorable scheduling annually, biased polling, and undeserved rematches. Nobody reports that. 3 fake opinionated titles, but only 2 of the last 4 SEC titles. That's weird. They are well coached, but all their recruits don't work out. So, they should not go up just because they commit to Bama. LSU puts as many players in the league as Bama, but doesn't get the same treatment. It's bull shite however you look at it and not true evaluations. This post was edited on 1/17 at 7:57 am Reply Back to Top |
Posted by AtlantaLSUfan on 1/17 at 7:50 am to Dudebro2 PLEASE no more Tim Williams threads. The MF'er went to Bama. Frick him. I want to talk about our amazing class and potential studs to add to it. Reply Back to Top |
quote: They also benefit from sub-consciencely bias officiating. I call it the BirminghAm effect. But enough about bama. Reply Back to Top |
quote: LSU showed they have at least same amount of talent as BAMA the last several years... UGA showed they can beat BAMA as did A$M..the scheme is critical.. What I learned is the margin of talent is slim... LSU is having 8-10 players drafted into the NFL this year.. We already are near the top in the NFL for most player in the NFL So BAMA being #1 in recruiting every year is a little Bias regardless of their 3 titles. Saban's coaching and their favorable schedule not to mention a BSC mulligan game is why they have the hardware. Reply Back to Top |

Posted by brewhan davey on 1/17 at 10:15 am to buck54 Give Scarborough and company a break. They are just retaliating the shameless bumps given to Alabama commits by derailing TW's ranking and bumping up every LSU commit in the TigerBait Top 30.

What do sibutramine (an appetite suppressant), fenproporex (an amphetamine), and furosemide (a diuretic) have in common? They have been found in products sold as weight-loss pills, though none were listed as ingredients in the pills and, with the exception of the drug sibutramine, they are not approved for use in weight-loss medications.
"Anybody can label anything for weight loss," explains Pieter Cohen, MD, an internist at Cambridge Health Alliance and instructor at Harvard Medical School in Cambridge, Mass., without having to prove that it works or that it's safe.
Weight-Loss Pills: Buyer Beware
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) doesn't have to approve supplements — no agency in the United States does. So it's up to consumers to bring health concerns to light.
"It's important to understand the difference between over-the-counter medications and dietary supplements," Dr. Cohen says.
Over-the-counter (OTC) medications, as well as prescription medicines, have gone through a rigorous process to be approved by the FDA to treat illness or disease. In some cases, OTC approval comes after the medication has been available for years by prescription only, as with orlistat (Xenical), now offered in an OTC version (Alli) with a smaller dosage.
"Anything that was a prescription medication and has become OTC has met a very high standard," Cohen says. However, in keeping with the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, companies selling anything in the class of "dietary supplements" don't have to register with the FDA and don't have to show any proof of effectiveness for their claims. The FDA gets involved only after the fact, if the supplement later appears to be causing harm. By that time, the supplement may already have harmed many consumers who used it.
"The burden of proof is on the FDA to determine [a supplement] is dangerous and remove it from the market," Cohen says. Consumer complaints are the primary trigger for investigations. One recent investigation of the dietary weight-loss supplement ephedra resulted in it being banned for sale in the United States. Consumers can register concerns about supplements using the FDA's MedWatch Reporting system.
Weight-Loss Pills: Use With Caution
Consumers should carefully consider the potential harm diet and weight-loss products can do. Nearly 100 were found to contain unlisted ingredients, including medications not approved for use in the United States. Due to lack of regulation, these products could contain far higher amounts of listed ingredients than advertised.
Any weight-loss product listing herbal (sometimes referred to as "botanical") ingredients might be considered suspect, for several reasons:
- The effectiveness of herbal and plant-based ingredients has rarely been proven.
- Because the manufacturing processes are not monitored, plants grown for herb production may be misidentified or, worse, purposefully switched with other plants.
- Many herbal ingredients have been found to interact with many prescription medications.
Weight-Loss Pills: Take Extra Caution
Products claiming to provide diuretic (water loss) effects should be used with extra caution. While diuretics work, a doctor should supervise their use, as they can cause severe dehydration and upset the normal balance of salts in the body. They can also increase blood sugar levels.
Products claiming to provide powerful energy or metabolic effects or act as stimulants should be avoided as well. Some products making such claims have been found to contain unhealthy amounts of caffeine or combinations of caffeine and ephedrine (an ephedra-like drug) that can raise heart rate and blood pressure to dangerous levels. There have been several reports of serious adverse effects in people taking such products.
"Supplement facts" printed on labels are simply the manufacturer's unverified claim about what is in the bottle, Cohen says.
Weight-Loss Pills: Contamination Dangers
Contaminated supplements pose serious problems. In 2008, the FDA identified 72 weight- loss products as "contaminated." Among the offending ingredients were rimonabant, a drug not approved for use in the United States due to its associated risks, and fenproporex, an amphetamine derivative also banned here because of its potential for causing heart palpitations, arrhythmia, and possible sudden death.
Similar contamination problems have been found in other investigations, including one concluding that 8 of 12 tested weight-loss products contained ingredients, including ephedra, that posed potentially life-threatening cardiac risks.
Weight-Loss Pills: Drug Interactions
Besides running the risk of taking a supplement contaminated with various herbs, pesticides, metals, or prescription drugs, a consumer can also endanger her health because of the interactions between supplements and certain prescription medications. Some dietary supplements can trigger increased bleeding or affect a person's response to anesthesia.
Patients should inform all their doctors about the OTC medications and supplements they take, regardless of the reason they take them. Better still: Consult your doctor before adding weight-loss pills or supplements to your routine.

Durango resident Jurgen Herbst died Saturday, Jan. 12, 2013, at Sunshine Gardens West. He was 84, and had lived in Durango since 1994.
Mr. Herbst was born to Annemarie and Hermann Herbst in Wolfenbuttel, Germany, on Feb. 22, 1928. At the end of World War II, he received a fellowship from the Quaker American Friends Service Committee to study at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, where he earned a bachelor�s degree in geography.
On Sept. 16, 1951, he married Susan Lou Allen in a Quaker wedding in Lincoln.
Early in their marriage, the couple lived in Hannover, Germany, for several years, where Mr. Herbst served as an education-affairs specialist for the U.S. Information Agency. He went on to earn a master�s degree in American studies from the University of Minnesota and a doctorate in the history of American civilization from Harvard University.
He taught history and education at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Conn., before moving to Madison, Wis., for 30 years. Mr. Herbst was a professor in the University of Wisconsin History Department, and was named professor emeritus of the UW Educational Policy Studies Department of the School of Education, which his family said he helped make into one of the leading producers of scholars in the history of American education and social science scholars trained to study educational issues and problems.
Mr. Herbst was a member of the National Academy of Education, president of the History of Education Society and chairman of the International Standing Conference for the History of Education. His publications include a memoir about his childhood in Germany and books about various aspects of the history of American education.
He served as chairman of the city of Madison Ethics Board, and as a member of the First Congregational Church�s executive board.
Mr. Herbst was a guest professor at several major universities and a Fulbright lecturer at the University of Heidelberg in Germany.
In Durango, he was an active member of the Professional Associates of Fort Lewis College and La Plata County Search and Rescue.
Mr. Herbst was preceded in death by his wife of almost 61 years, Susan Herbst, in July 2012.
He is survived by his daughters, Stephanie Herbst of Durango and Anne Herbst of Boston; son, Kris Herbst, of Arlington, Va.; and one granddaughter.
A celebratory open house will be held between 2 and 4 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 19, 2013, at Durango Public Library, 1900 East Third Ave.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the American Friends Service Committee, AFSC Development, 1501 Cherry St., Philadelphia, PA 19102.

Hi Wolfgang, And.....when do I get to try some of these 30% fins. I've been totally intrigued with the Duo's (I need to trade them out as they have seen alot of demo sailing but are getting a bit worn on the tips), which has increased my curiosity levels about the 30 deg. fins (not as weed fins, but as something really fast that shares the characteristics of both a 45 deg. weed fin and a fully vertical race fin. You are the man with the plan, Wolfgang! R |

Hallo Roger! I bought a Isonic 135 from 2006. 80cm wide. The board is only for testing fins and to have fun. Atfirst a 32 cm Duo Weedfin in carbon. With 7,6 m� Stealth and 9,4 Nitro 2004. Worked very good. Later tried I Freeride and Slalom fins. 42 and 45cm. The board want always to sail higher against the wind, than I would. With speed no problem. Okay, I can hold the sail more in front, but thats nothing to relaxe . So I took a 36 cm Duo Weedfin . To start no problem, only fun. Rake 45� works very good for so short boards. I tried later a rake 30� fin. 28cm vertical. She is diagonal 35cm long. To start easier than upright fins, downwind like a train, 7,6 m� was okay, for 9,4m� i have to work a 32cm rake 30� fin. I worked now 3 years for rake 30� fins, I try to forget the other fins. 22cm 25cm 28cm and soon 32cm. I dont forget you Roger , but only now comes the time,that I can say, that they are good for all people, or better for the most people. They look how the Le Wo Duo Speed and are 2cm wider. Wolfgang |

Hi Andy, I think the 36 cm Lessacher Duo will do all that Wolfgang suggests. I think James may be correct that your stock 50 cm fin may not be large enough for your 9.8 rig. The 58 cm should be OK in lighter winds, but you my get some tailwalking if you use a 58 cm when fully powered to overpowered on the 9.8. What 40 cm weed fin do you have. Some 40cm weed fins will work with big sails, some don't. Hope this helps, |

Lessacher |
Hallo Andy! Duo Weedfin 36cm in 100% carbon is big enough. She is diagonal 50cm long. www.designlessacher.com Wolfgang |
18th May 2008 08:48 AM | |
James |
You'll definately need bigger than 36 cm for the 9.8. Maybe 46 cm with a regular weed fin, or 40 cm with a Lessacher weed fin. Roger Jackson is an expert on weed fins, so maybe he'll chime in. With regards to the 50 cm stock fin and a 9.8, I think it will work when you are powered up, but the 58 might help in marginal conditions. It's worth a try, anyway. Good luck! |

steveC |
Andy, You should check out Wolfgang Lessacher's fins. They are different than most, but much better in my opinion. No spinout, lots of windward drive, and a more compact size overall. Wolfgang is really on top of the game when it comes to weedfins. I can honestly say that I'm suitably impressed with performance characteristics. http://www.cameraid.com/Lessacher/ |

weed finn for furtura 144 hi I just bought a futura 144,, so i am having some questions reg. weed finns,, my sail range is going from 7 - 9.8,, and i already have a 36 cm weed finn,, would that be enough, or will i need a bigger for my 9.8 sail??

Help out the homie, his dope as fuck by the way
i just released my first album. long story short, my hard drive died and i lost all of the music i had been working on in the last year or two. i decided to release all the music that was backed up in random places. the album features a ton of beats and tracks i've done for rappers. it's free, but donations are awesome. i'm trying to get enough money to recover the data off of my old hard drive. it's going to cost close to $1000, so any bit will help.
either way, enjoy. i appreciate feedback and criticism.

The 2012 American Library Association Notable Books List was announced last Sunday--and that made January 22 a Recognized Holiday at my house. I've got several notables checked out, a few more on hold, and I have finished my first--"We the Animals" by Justin Torres.
After last year's rants about LONG books dominating the list, I can ease up this year. In fact, "We the Animals" is only 128 pages.
It's a series of short stories told by the youngest of three brothers in a contemporary family. Their father is Puerto Rican, and their mom is anglo, both from Brooklyn originally, although the family lives now in upstate New York.
The stories reminded me of Andre Dubus III's "Townie" in their mix of profound family chaos, fierce love, and edginess.
In one story, the boy is alone left too long at a Niagara Falls museum. To keep himself occupied, he ends up dancing in front of a film that nobody else is viewing, enjoying the movement and the lights on his body. He realizes that his dad has finally returned, and has been watching him, perhaps for some time. His dad realizes how "pretty" his son is. That begins the movement toward the book's end, as the young man realizes he's gay, and engineers his first sexual encounter.
When I finished this, I noted that I felt like I was either in the presence of genius, or needed a shower. The scenes in this book so often put the narrator and his brothers in situations that were dirty or grimy or slightly dangerous or mean. And yet there remained that sense of love and solidarity. How did Torres manage that?
Torres writes in a deceptively simple way that seems just to describe, but that also sets a tone.
I will recommend this to people who appreciate spare writing, who seek varieties of experiences, and who can tolerate edginess. I'll also bring it to the attention of book groups.

Silent thyroiditis is swelling (inflammation) of the thyroid gland, in which the person alternates between
Lymphocytic thyroiditis; Subacute lymphocytic thyroiditis; Painless thyroiditis; Thyroiditis - silent
The cause of this type of thyroiditis is unknown. The disease affects women more often than men.
The earliest symptoms result from an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism). These symptoms may last for 3 months or fewer. Later symptoms may be of an underactive thyroid (including fatigue and cold intolerance) until the thyroid recovers.
Symptoms are usually mild and may include:
A physical examination may show:
Tests may show:
Treatment is based on symptoms. Beta-blockers relieve rapid heart rate and excessive sweating.
Generally, silent thyroiditis will go away on its own within 1 year. The acute phase will end within 3 months.
Some people may develop hypothyroidism over time. Regular follow-ups with a doctor are recommended.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of this condition.

text: If it helps, the older generation i7's did not have integrated graphics, so these processors with a discrete nvidia card will run linux w/o issue. That's what i did, i bought a new Dell XPS 15 laptop with an i7-740 (the older gen proc have a 3-digit suffix like '740' etc) at the start of this year w/ an NV 435GT card. All is AOK. The i5 & i3 of this same prior generation all had nvidia optimus so they will not work, only i7. With the latest generation chips, i3, i5 and now i7 all have optimus & hence will cause grief under linux. The newer generation i7 has a 4 digit suffix, ie like 'i7-2630'. Iirc the newer i7 etc came out Feb? this year, so maybe you can find a laptop w/ the slightly older i7 & nv card & you'd be golden. Maybe Dell will still build with the older processor, i dunno.

We're On The Cover!
Why is this ridiculously good looking dude all smiles? Probably because he's wearing the Cushe Slipper! Possibly because he's a model - but likely it's just the Slipper.
The Cushe Slipper is gracing the cover of the September issue of Outside Magazine by way of this extremely happy fella's feet, and popping back up again on page 47! So exciting! Our little Slipper is all growns up, and we're so proud. We hope it doesn't forget about us on its meteoric rise to fame.
The September issue of Outside is on shelves right now - so pick one up and pin us on your bedroom wall!

Cards have dual purpose in tilt against Nats
NL Central crown, league's top record both in St. Louis' sights
The Cardinals no longer have to worry about procuring an invitation to the postseason gala that October promises. Now, they're trying to seize the best seats available.
For starters, a spot at the table of division winners will do. But this team has a chance to finish with the best record in the National League. Why settle for anything less when you can be the guest of honor?
After Monday's games -- including St. Louis' 4-3 win against Washington -- the Cardinals remained two games ahead of Pittsburgh and Cincinnati in the NL Central. They trail Atlanta by a half-game for the top record in the league, with the Dodgers behind in that race by two.
Washington, which had an outside shot at a Wild Card berth, was officially eliminated from postseason contention. The top three teams in the NL Central saw to that.
On Tuesday, St. Louis will host the Nationals at Busch Stadium for the second installment of this week's three-game series. The visitors are scheduled to start left-hander Gio Gonzalez (11-7, 3.39 ERA) against Cardinals righty Michael Wacha (3-1, 3.21 ERA).
St. Louis has won all four meetings between the teams this season, with the most recent victory stamping out the Nationals' dim playoffs hopes.
With just five games remaining in the regular season, the Cardinals plan on simply doing what they've done all year long: take it one game at a time. That might be a cliche, but it also has been standard operating procedure for so many championship teams in so many sports.
"Why would we change now?" St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said. "I think that's the beauty of playing this time of year. If guys have truly bought in to that theory, that approach, then this feels like another game. And so far, they have. They've been very, very consistent, whether it's a bad day, good day -- next one they come out ready to play that exact same way.
"I think that's really what we owe each other, owe ourselves, owe the fans. We put it out there the same way, it really doesn't matter what numbers say or what drama has been built up. It's good for the game, but it's not good for us in how we execute."
Nationals: Davey expects Zimmerman to stay at third
There didn't seem to be much wrong with third baseman Ryan Zimmerman's right shoulder on Sunday, when he dove to his right for a sharp grounder and rifled an accurate throw across the diamond just in time for the out. With Zimmerman making plays like that one, the idea of his moving to first base in 2014 becomes a little silly.
"I wasn't worried about it," Johnson said about the position switch. "That was unbelievable -- the catch and he had a heck of a lot on it. That's a seed. I think we would put [playing first base] to bed."
• In his last five outings, Gonzalez is 4-1 with a 1.87 ERA over 33 2/3 innings, with 30 strikeouts against 12 walks. Gonzalez pitched against St. Louis in Games 1 and 5 of last year's NLDS, allowing six hits and five runs with 11 walks and 10 strikeouts over 10 total innings. In one regular-season start against the Cardinals in 2012, Gonzalez threw a five-hit shutout.
Cardinals: Field could play faster after football game
In Monday's series opener, there were still signs that a football game had taken place on the playing surface at Busch Stadium, two days after Southeast Missouri State met Southern Illinois. It took a lot of work to return the field to adequate baseball conditions, but the surface is expected to play a bit faster than normal.
"Looks like the grounds crew did a good job with what they had to try and make happen here," Matheny said. "It's not easy. We've got a very, very good grounds crew here. These guys work real hard and I'll be interested to see how it plays."
• As of now, this start will be Wacha's last of the year, but the Cardinals could shuffle their rotation before the playoffs begin. In four outings since returning to the rotation on Sept. 3, the rookie is 1-1 with a 2.38 ERA over 22 2/3 innings. Wacha most recently pitched last Thursday in Colorado, where he gave up four runs and 12 hits in 4 2/3 innings.
Worth noting
• This season, St. Louis has outscored the Nationals, 13-7, and outhit them, 36-23.
• Washington's Jayson Werth and the Cardinals' Carlos Beltran both hit two-run homers on Monday. Beltran's fifth-inning blast proved to be the game winner.

Some things never change, uptempo.
Our division between Mullin's effectiveness as a GM remains one of them. Entertaining as it is, I don't think Biedrins learned to be lazy from Adonal Foyle. I think his aggression, in all facets of the game, evaporated. When his free-throw shooting became a league-wide joke, he stopped taking it inside on offense (which was the only place he could score). After a while, the offensive glass went too, because he didn't want to chance getting sent to the line on a hack. And then his whole game just became passive. I don't know if it's laziness so much as fear. And, to his credit, it seems like what he's most afraid of is failing. Stings of cruel irony that his fear of failure is tanking his career like this.
Any chance Biedrins could ever be effective again?
Moderators: Mr. Crackerz, JREED, Guybrush, hobbes
Biedrens was effective when he had Baron Davis running the offense and giving him, Biedrens, perfect passes off of the pick-and-roll. The poor free throw shooting is fixable, but only if Biedrens applies himself to do it. Sadly, he seems to have lost his motivation for any improvement. |
His best year was the year after Davis left.

"Hard Work Beats Talent, When Talent Doesn't Work Hard"
: 2010 - 2011 |
I'm not sure if it was us, Hoops Fan, or if I debated this point with another poster, but I've argued the position that Biedrins' career-high in several categories the year after Baron left had more to do with playing heavy minutes on a depleted roster than anything he himself was responsible for. Yes, he averaged more rebounds, but the Warriors had lost 3 of their top 5 rebounders and while Biedrins scored more (taking more shots), his FG and FT percentages fell by a combined 10%. He also averaged a career-high in fouls (which is saying something) and upped his giveaways by almost a full turnover per game (also a career-high).
Baron Davis was undoubtably a catalyst to this Warriors offense and specifically to bigs like Andris Biedrins. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
Great analysis. You are 100% correct. |
Biedrins looking better out there. I don't think it's exactly mind-shattering to expect that he regain enough form to be a serviceable backup. Spot minutes to rebound, play D, provide a spark, etc.
I'd be satisfied if AB got 20mins a game, at least while Bogut, and got like 6rebs and played proper defense. He wouldn't be earning his money, but he'd have value, value for a trade.
migya make the ring fall on ya |
well, Biedrins has been hustling as good as we can hope for, defensively. But what's so embarrassing about him offensively, is that he has gotten much worse even percentage wise because he will do whatever he can not to get fouled. I don't see why he is so scared, it's not like people expect him to be a good free throw shooter anyways.
The FO should be shopping AB every week, see what they get. I'm not against using AB during games, emphasising rebounding and defensive rotation with him.
migya make the ring fall on ya |
I refuse to partake in this Mickey Mouse sh*t that Bob and Jim are instigating, where we clap for Andris because he's averaging 2 and a half rebounds a game off the bench. Gimmie a break.
9 million dollars a year and we have to pacify this guy with a standing ovation anytime he sinks a free throw. I'm not gonna get excited because the season we've finally disregarded him is the season he decided to reinstate a fraction of his rebounding zest. He's still garbage and I hope they're doing exactly what migya describes: shopping him to every potential sucker - er, suitor - in hopes of making better use of his roster spot. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |

Purported widow of murder victim charged with fraudBRATTLEBORO — The purported widow of murder victim Michael Martin — who was shot to death by a disgruntled employee at the Brattleboro Food Co-op two summers ago — has been charged with fraud for allegedly falsifying a marriage certificate and claiming Martin's insurance benefits.
Jennifer D. Dusenbery, 37, formerly of Dummerston, left Vermont last year for Indiana where her young children live while she was under investigation by Vermont State Police.
But according to documents on file in Windham County criminal court, the case languished until this spring, when Zurich Insurance Co. finally came forward with information that she had received close to $70,000 based on the falsified marriage certificate she had submitted to it.
Judge David Suntag recently signed an arrest warrant for Dusenbery, whose last known address was in Barea, Calif.
Windham County State's Attorney Tracy Kelly Shriver said her office would seek to extradite Dusenbery, but that her whereabouts are currently unknown.
Martin, 59, a native of Waterbury, had started working at the food co-op in 2006, to manage the food store which was undergoing a major new construction project. He had offered longtime store employee Richard Gagnon, the wine and beer manager, a severance package a few days before Gagnon came into the store and shot Martin in the back of the head as he sat at his desk.
Martin's murder stunned the Brattleboro community, prompting a large public vigil and much soul-searching in the community.
Gagnon has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder for shooting Martin, and is serving a 20-year sentence.
Dusenbery had been involved with the state police and Shriver's office before the fraud investigation began last summer. She had filed a complaint against her ex-boyfriend alleging that she had been sexually assaulted by him, Shriver said.
But Shriver said she never filed charges against the man, who has since moved from Putney to Rutland, because of Dusenbery's credibility issues.
Court records also revealed that Dusenbery had once been charged with assaulting Martin with a candlestick in April 2009. Charges of aggravated domestic assault were reduced to simple assault, and received a suspended 15- to 20-day sentence.
Shriver also said that the Brattleboro justice of the peace who signed the marriage certificate after the fact when she did not perform a wedding ceremony for Martin and Dusenbery on Halloween in 2010 — nine months before Martin was murdered — would not face criminal charges because she had no intent to defraud anyone of anything, despite filing a false document.
Mary Cain, who at one time worked for Dusenbery, had been contacted by her and asked her to sign the certificate after Martin died. Cain told police she signed the certificate, and back dated it to Oct. 31, 2010, as a notary, just ascertaining what Dusenbery said.
But interviews conducted by Vermont State Police Trooper Tyson Kinney with two other town clerks, who have extensive experience with marriage certificates, said that Cain should have known better and that she had performed wedding ceremonies before.
Dusenbery told police, as well as the Dummerston town clerk, that Martin and herself had performed their own wedding ceremony during a party at their home on Oct. 30, 2010. Dusenbery and Martin had taken out a marriage certificate in October, the town clerk told police, and Dusenbery had started using the name Martin, according to Michael Martin's obituary, which listed their wedding date as Oct. 29, 2010.
But according to court records, Martin was still legally married to another woman, Lisa Nisca, who lives in New York state, whose attorney had failed to file the final agreement in their divorce.
According to court records, Martin's insurance policy should have been paid out to minor children still living at home, or his legally married wife. Nisca has since filed a claim.
Martin, the father of six children and five stepchildren, had been married five times.
If convicted, Dusenbery could face 10 years in prison.

I bought these for my wife's Caddie CTS/4 Sportwagon, after doing some research. The original all season semi performance tires were about 2/3 worn at 50 k miles. The stock tires worked pretty well for the first three winters, but as my wife said, when it was new, "it's no Escalade", ( the car she had before). Well she doesn't say that now! These tires rocked this winter. Our driveway is about 1000 feet long and is a very steep grade, probably over 35 degrees at it's steepest point. Every storm, before I plowed the drive, I'd take the Caddie out and play in the snow with it. I's stop right in the middle of the steepest prt, on a curve to boot, heavily cambered, and it would take off with not a hint of spin! So far wear seems minimal for a soft snow tire, although I advised the wife to take it easy on them and she has been a good girl. Buy these, you won't be disappointed in my opinion. My wife thinks I'm brilliant!

Purchased Ipike as a complete set with wheels for winter use. I am amazed at the performance of these tires and the sense of safety they bring to driver and passengers. I use them only during the winter months in Michigan and like them so well I'm almost sorry when spring rolls around. I noticed economy is down about two miles per gallon in winter over summer calculations. Some mileage apparently different due to mix formulas of fuel also. I'm no expert, I've used there tires three winters a total of 20378 miles at this writing. Tires look great and I continue to go in snow, stop, corner, and be confident of the traction provided by these tires. I'll buy them again.

Just put these on the Mini for another Buffalo winter, transforming the little car into a snow tank. The car runs straight through roads with several inches of snow, and takes off from traffic signals without slide or spin. Braking is great, with very little slide and even when it does slide a bit, they keep the car straight. Overall, I'm super happy with the purchase and will certainly buy these again. In addition to great snow performance, they are really quiet for a snow tire - I may be crazy but I think these are quieter than my Falken all-seasons.

Is there an equivalent to Route 66 available in Europe? Here I am not talking about the actual road with the number 66, but about a "trajectory" with a mythical connotation to its name. I did not follow route 66, but I guess due to its fame doing route 66 offer quite some touristic opportunities, compared to doing highway "john doe". I am aware of the international e-road network, but I am not so much interested in following one specific highway, more to do an interesting well documented road trip in Europe.
The mythical, even mystical, route I think of, is not by car but by foot. It is not even a single route but a network of paths from everywhere in Europe to a single place: This is the Way of St. James. I never heard of something close to Route 66 in Europe. Though car has an essential role in today's Europe, its history is relatively young. Famous paths are by foot or by train and they don't stop at the borders of Europe. Moreover, the most convenient way of travelling was not on ground but by boat. I don't think that the Mediterranean Sea or the Baltic Sea would qualify as the most famous routes. Garry Vass mentioned Orient Express and Marco Polo. Hippietrail mentioned Silk Road. There are also trade routes for spices, amber, and incense. One path that is not so famous (yet) but that I would love to follow is the Eurovelo 6 from the Atlantic Ocean to the Black Sea, along the Loire and Danube rivers. It has only one 6 and only two wheels... |
I agree with mouviciel. Europe's mythical road par excellence is the way of St. James. If you prefer a drivable road, there is one particulary mythical road in France, the Nationale 7. It is nearly 1000 kilometers long and runs from Paris to Menton, on the French Riviera. It crosses some beautiful spots. The French also call it "route des vacances" (= holiday road). Before the construction of the motorway it was the main axis linking Paris and Southern France. There is a dedicated website. You can also have a look at the Roman roads. The Romans built an extensive road network in Europe. These roads do not exist any longer. However, it should be possible to mimic their course today. Unfortunately, I think that such trips are not well documented. |
I suppose the only real European equivalent is the ill-defined 'grand tour'. But you'll be hard pressed to actually find it. Here's another question on the grand tour. That said, there are plenty of semi-epic drives around Europe. In fact, much of Europe is so compact, that you can easily come up with your own epic ride in pretty much any part of Europe, without even having to drive too much. |
You may be interested in Via Francigena too. EDIT: I recently stumbled upon the European Institute of Cultural Routes and apparently its main purpose is to preserve, promote and improve historical/cultural routes in Europe. On the Wiki page there's a comprehensive list of the routes they monitor: Major Cultural Routes of the Council of Europe
Cultural Routes of the Council of Europe
This article entitled Where is Britain's Route 66? gives possible suggestions for such a route in the British Isles including:
The Great North Road sounds like the beginning of an adventure. It links two great cities in London and Edinburgh. True to say that in its day, it had a selection of interesting eateries along its route, and much like Route 66, much of the original route has been bypassed, leaving quieter stretches to explore. Verdict: A genuine contender to the title of Britain's Mother Road.
If you stretch things a bit, you could claim that the A5 links London and Dublin, if you count the ferry. These two compare well with Chicago and L.A. It follows the route of the ancient Watling Street built by the Romans, hence it is signposted as 'Roman Road' along sections of its length. And there is plenty of things along the route indicating the route's history, such as coach houses and staging posts. The real trump card however is the Menai Suspension Bridge. This bit of architectural interest makes the A5 a stand out candidate. If only there was a song about it. A book is also available for Britain's Route 66. It has over 900 colour photographs and the largest ever collection of memorabilia from the beginnings through today. Available from Grantham Book services. Tel: +44 (0)1476 541 080 (I have no association with the above book) Alternatively: If you are a biker, you may be interested in Spain's own Route 66 with the Spanish company Route66Spain. They will introduce to: A tour of Spain from north to south where you can enjoy the best scenery, sample the best restaurants and especially to make a unique and unforgettable experience in your life. (I also have no association with this company either) |

I have a bunch of partial bottles that need to be consumed to make room for new stuff, so I thought I would declare June as bourbon sour month in order to expedite the process.
What's your favorite sour recipe?
I typically add 2 parts bourbon, 1 part lemon juice and 1 part simple syrup to a shaker and shake the heck out of it.
I don't always have fresh squeezed lemon handy, but I found that the Minute Maid lemon juice in the freezer section is a nice substitute for the real thing.

The fundamental problem is that X11 works in 95% of cases and there are hacks for the vast majority of other cases (e.g. using NX to forward X11 connections over high-latency links); so no-one wants to rewrite all that manky Xlib code even if the new interface would be better.
Then there's the 'who wants to run graphics programs over a network anyway?' brigade who don't even see the benefits; which apparently includes KDE if their developers really think that running KDE apps over the network is a 'bizarre corner case'... that may explain why KDE apps crash so much when I run them on my Unix server with the display on my Windows laptop.

Eugene O. WhiteEugene O. White
WEBSTERVILLE Eugene Otis White, fifth-generation Vermonter and longtime Websterville resident, cashed in his last lottery ticket on Feb. 2, 2013, at the Vermont Respite House, after an extended battle with pulmonary fibrosis.
Gene was born March 15, 1931, in Waltham, a town so small it was rumored that the town records were kept in someones closet. He was the youngest child of Harry White and Eva Kimball.
The family moved to Warren where he recalled being saved by his father from falling off the Warren covered bridge at the age of 3. They moved to Montpelier and at the age of 6, Gene lost his father in an accident. Gene graduated from Montpelier High School in 1949 and soon began employment at National Life Insurance Co.
In April 1951, he enlisted in the U.S. Air Force, serving with the 501st Tactical Control Group in the European theater of operations during the Korean conflict. Upon his return, he rejoined National Life Insurance Co. until his retirement in 1988.
On June 30, 1956, he married Anita Crete in St. Monica Church in Barre. Together, they raised four children in Upper Websterville. He served his community as a Barre Town selectman, planning commissioner, justice of the peace and was on the Board of Civil Authority. He was a member of the Montpelier Elks Club, Montpelier Veterans of Foreign Wars, Barre American Legion, Mutuo Club and National Life Quarter Century Club.
Gene and Anita were avid golfers with Gene having two holes-in-one to his credit. They also enjoyed playing cards and wintering in the South with friends Don and Mary Jane Hayward, Taylor and Mona Millington, Duane and Pat Kittredge, and Tom and Ann Hill.
His wife, Anita, passed away May 27, 2005. He is survived by their children, Denis and Donna White, of Essex Junction, Donna and James Farless, of Hendersonville, Tenn., Diane and her companion, Lou Koniecki, of Waterford, Conn., and Doug and his companion, Amy Douglas, of Barre; also grandchildren McKenzie and Madison Farless, Dylan and wife Lindsay; and great-grandchildren Amylee and Cole.
He was predeceased by his parents and seven half-siblings.
Calling hours will be held Thursday, Feb. 7, 2013, from 7 to 9 p.m. at Pruneau-Polli Funeral Home, 58 Summer St. in Barre.
A Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated Friday, Feb. 8, 2013, at 11 a.m. at St. Sylvesters Church in Graniteville.
The family would like to thank the staff at the Vermont Respite House for their outstanding dedication and perseverance. Memorial contributions may be made to the Vermont Respite House, 99 Allen Brook Lane, Williston, VT 05495; or Central Vermont Home Health and Hospice, 600 Granger Road, Barre, VT 05641.

Take a virtual tour of the Shady Rest Cabin
Rich in history and spectacular scenery, Crawford State Park has a flavor all its own. This southeast Kansas treasure, located 9 miles north of Girard in Crawford County, resides on a 150-acre lake built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930's. The park dedicated the CCC Memorial Trail in 2005 to the CCC members who built the lake.
This trail hosts a National CCC Alumni Foundation Statue and items of historical importance honoring their achievement.
There are two recorded archaeological sites within the park's boundaries, including remnants of a 19th-century U.S. military outpost. An interpretive trail, Deer Run Trail, connects the park with the Kansas Department of Wildlife & Parks' Farlington Fish Hatchery, which was built shortly after the CCC completed construction of the lake.
The 500-acre park features six campgrounds. There are 29 primitive sites, 38 electric only sites, 25 50amp/water sites, and 20 30amp/ water sites. All of the campsites have a spectacular view of the lake.
The park also offers limited reservation sites. In Rocky Cove Campground there are four RV sites that can be reserved.
Lakeview Group Use area has 10 electric sites and is located at the south end of the lake. It is ideal for family reunions, club campouts, and other group activities.
Crawford State Park offers several lakefront rental cabins with all the comforts of home in a beautiful lake setting. The cabins are by reservation only and are available year round.
Shady Rest is the largest cabin. Three very new cabins will become available to rent by early 2009.
Available for your convenience are two boat ramps, three bathhouses, courtesy docks, and a dump station. Four hiking and biking trails, a swimming beach, and horse shoe pits
offer more recreational opportunities in addition to camping, fishing and boating. Limited food and convenience items and delicious meals are available at the marina restaurant Friday breakfast through Sunday lunch.
Anglers enjoy excellent fishing for channel catfish, crappie, and striped bass.
Pleasure boating, skiing, and swimming are among favorite recreational pursuits.
Located on the edge of the Ozarks, Crawford State Park provides a variety of landscapes seen in Kansas state parks. Redbud trees offer spectacular beauty in the spring along with a wide variety of colorful wildflowers, birds, and butterflies. The lush foliage of the surrounding forest is a naturalist's delight.

When I was but a wee Von, one of my biggest goals in life (in addition to becoming She-Ra and owning a pet cheetah) was to one day be described as 'charming.' At the age of 8, I was fairly sure 'charm' involved drinking tea with my pinky sticking out and giggling behind my hand.
This is not actually correct.
These days, I've got charm (slightly) more figured out - at least enough that I felt I could write a five-page treatise on it. And I would love to share that info with you!
But! Because I'm a cheeky, cheeky monkey, I would love it if you signed up for my twice-monthly newsletter - and then you can get all charming on me. I'm going to call my newsletter The Yes And Yes Gazette because that sounds infinitely cooler than 'newsletter.' Anyone who signs up for it will get a copy of my How To Charm minibook in their inboxes. Because what better way to start the work week than by charming your office mates?
The Yes And Yes Gazette (see? more fun!) will include links to cool things, photos from my travels, tidbits of what I've been up to and discounts on all that stuff I sell. I promise I won't spam you constantly or share your email address with embarrassingsexyemails.com!

AAA Report: Labor Day Travel To Increase
The AAA Auto Club is forecasting increased travel for the 2012 Labor Day weekend compared to 2011. That follows the same trend from other holiday periods thus far in the year.
According to those surveyed, 66 percent said their travel plans were not negatively impacted finances. Of 34 percent that said "yes," they said they would either plan shorter trips, or try to save money on lodging or food.
Labor Day weekend is viewed by most Americans as the last chance to take a summer trip before school starts. Many will visit friends and relatives, dine, or shop. Other activities will encompass sporting events, going to the beach, hiking or biking.

An online video, urging Africans to save Norwegians from frostbite, has gone viral. The tongue-in-cheek spoof features South Africans singing about sending radiators to Norway. The filmmakers hope to take on stereotypes of Africa that are reinforced by charities and the media. Host Michel Martin speaks to Erik Evans, one of the video's creators.

Montreal's sensible layout combined with an extensive and super-efficient public transport system (Metro, bus and commuter rail services) make getting around the city easy. In fair weather hundreds of kilometres of bike paths that span the island offer a healthier, pleasant option. Public transport is run by the Montreal Transport Society, or STM. The pristine metro has dozens of stations along four different lines with numerous stops in the subterranean mall. The metro stops are all integrated with a comprehensive network of city bus routes. The metro and buses run between 5:30am and 1am, with a limited night bus service filling in. The inner city services in turn connect to a commuter rail network that serves the suburbs. Fares are standard on both the bus and metro and transfers are free; a discounted tourist pass is available for bus and metro. Metered taxis can be hailed in the streets downtown or ordered by telephone. There are numerous car rental firms in the city, but roads are often heavily congested and traffic jams are common.
GMT -5 (GMT -4 from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November).
Electrical current is 110 volts, 60Hz. American-style flat two-pin plugs and a plug with a third round grounding pin are standard.
The currency used is the Canadian Dollar (CAD). Banks and bureaux de change will change cash, as will some hotels. Major credit cards are widely accepted and ATMs are widespread. US Dollars are largely accepted.
The international access code for Canada is +1. The outgoing code is 011 followed by the relevant country code. The outgoing code is not necessary for calls to the US and the Caribbean. Internet cafes are widely available. Most international mobile phone companies have roaming agreements with Canadian operators, however it will be cheaper to buy a pay-as-you-go SIM card if visiting the country for long periods.
