Editor's note: In the past we've usually run a preview on the main game of the week in Thursday's newspaper and a roundup of area games on Friday. This year we are switching that, going with the roundup on Thursday with the main preview Friday. So in Friday's newspaper we'll have a story on the Jacksonville-Southwest clash as well as the first of Chris Miller's weekly prediction columns.
Or can Southwest continue its streak of season-opening victories, which dates back to 1997?
Those questions will be answered when the Cardinals and Stallions clash at The Corral on Friday night in the season opener for both teams.
"Southwest is real quick on offense and they spread it out now and like putting their guys in one-on-one situations," JHS coach Beau Williams said. "We also have to establish a running game."
Southwest's last win over the Cardinals was a 29-14 decision in 2010.
This is the 11th consecutive year of this series. The Stallions lead 6-4.
"I'm scared to death of their line. Their offensive line looks like the Green Bay Packers," SWO coach Phil Padgett said. "Their defensive front looks like the daggone New York Giants' defensive front."
Richlands at
The coach Justin Snider era at Richlands kicks off in Beulaville against coach Battle Holley and
This is Snider's first game since replacing Mike Natoli as coach.
It is also the first time since 1988 these two schools will meet to open the season.
From 1997 to 2012,
The Panthers won last year's meeting 29-12. The Wildcats have not defeated EDHS since a 23-20 win in 2007.
Lejeune at Swansboro
Lejeune and Swansboro continue their season-opening series. They've met in the first game every year since 2005 with the Pirates owning a 7-1 led in that stretch.
Swansboro won 27-6 last year. This is the Pirates' first game since moving up to the 3-A classification.
The Devilpups' last win over Swansboro was a 13-0 decision in 2006.
White Oak at Red Springs
This game was originally scheduled at White Oak, but wet playing conditions at White Oak forced the game to be moved to Red Springs.
This is the first meeting between the teams.
It also marks the first time since a 46-0 victory over
Instead, White Oak plays host to Red Springs, which moved up to 2-A after advancing to the third round of the NCHSAA 1-AA playoffs last year.
Northside at
This game features a lot of firsts for Northside.
The Monarchs visit
For 2-A Northside, this is also the first of four games this season against teams from the Coastal 3-A Conference.
This is also the first game back for Monarchs sophomore quarterback Jake Erickson, who broke his left leg Sept. 28 and missed the remainder of last season. It's also NHS standout receiver Josh Cabrera's first game since he committed to
The teams first met in 2005 with Spring Creek winning 54-7. However, with the Bulldogs' 33-7 victory last year, the series is tied 4-4.
Interesting enough,
Pamlico at Croatan
This marks the third straight year Croatan opens its season against Pamlico.
The Cougars won the previous two games, defeating the Hurricanes 55-28 in 2011 and 21-0 last year.
However, Pamlico still leads the all-time series 4-2, having defeated Croatan to open the season from 2001 to 2004.

Please Note: All Stan's NoTubes ZTR rims require yellow tape for tube or tubeless use. A tubeless valve is necessary for tubeless use. Tape and valve not included with rims.
Stan's has taken one of their best selling rims and made it even better! The Arch EX is the next evolutionary step for famous the Arch rim: now wider, lighter, and tougher than before. As expected, the Arch Ex is still constructed using Stan's Bead Socket Technology (BST) to provide superior tubeless compatibility and greatly improve tire performance, making a 24.6mm rim feels like a much wider 30mm without the added weight. The internal arch design provides durability and stiffness, two assets especially important for heavier riders. Although lightweight, the Arch EX can handle aggressive trail riding.
* White powerdcoat option adds about 20 grams over the black anodized finish.

Comments about Stan's No Tubes Arch Ex Rim:
I purchased a set of these when they came out this spring, black 29" size. Built them up with king hubs. No problems or any damage from typical XC use, not hitting any large drops or anything like that. I exceed the recommended weight limit as I am 270lbs geared up, but still no problems with approximately 1,200km on them this year. Easy tubeless set up with Stans tape, sealant, and conti race kings. I'll be picking up a second set of these soon for another bike.

Comments about Stan's No Tubes Arch Ex Rim:
These rims built up easily. Got the black 29er and the ERD came in at 604 as stated on the rim. The Stans website was different at 605. Good balance of durability weight and value. Plan on using these wheels for midwest singletrack and colorado all mountain riding. Plan to go with crests for midwest racing.
Best Uses
Comments about Stan's No Tubes Arch Ex Rim:
I recently purchased a set of Arch Ex 29 rims, and you really can't beat their price/weight ratio for XC riding. Their bead technology works well, and makes running tubeless easy. I have ridden several different Stan's models, and they are all great as long as you understand that their intended use is a bit exaggerated. For example, the Crest rims are really XC race or front wheel only, the Arch's are suitable for XC, and the Flows are good for aggressive trail riding, but they don't make anything suitable for freeride or DH (note to Stan's, if you did make a heavy duty rim, I would buy it). I am a 155 lb aggressive XC/all-mountain rider.

I decided to see which apps were available for the IPhone to do a little Wardriving with and I was chuffed with what I found. Below are deteails on a few applications that I have found useful to do a little network exploration with.
The apps I'll discuss in this post are WiFiFoFum, WiFinder, Ping (Lite), Net Utility and Portscan. These tools are all available from the App Store and do not require you to jailbreak the IPhone. Which I thought was very nice.
First I used the IPhones native WiFi tool to see which networks I could see.
Currently I can just pick up the one access point. I can see that there is no padlock icon so I know it's not encrypted which is useful, but it doesn't tell me whether it's WPA or WEP which is quite useful to know. OK, lets see what I can discover with my fancy new apps.
I have used this app before on Windows Mobile and found the IPhone version to be very stable. I was quickly able to see that it had picked up another AP.
I really like the Radar as it allows me to easily see which points are nearest to me as I am moving around.
Using this WifiFoFum I was able to quickly able to see which AP's had encryption.
And then by clicking on the point i'm interested in I can see which type of encryption it is using.
OK, thats all very nice but If I want an easier way to see which AP's are using encryption as I am driving about I need something different.
Ok, so this app does similar stuff but it goes a little further.
As you can see from the screenshot above, open and closed networks are sorted in categories and the encryption type is listed. I found this is slightly better when driving. As you can see from the screenshot below it's pretty effective at detecting access points
Now what is happening here is when the application finds an open AP, it will connect through to a remote website and if it gets through you'll see a green check mark next the name.
After selecting an Access Point you are presented with some more details and given the option to connect.
You can of course opt to connect by selecting the Connect button as shown above and you will be on that wireless LAN.
Ping (Lite)
This is a free application that I find pretty useful. After bring the application up, you are presented with some pretty standard utilities.
The one I was interested in to start with was Ping Subnet. After running this I was presented with details of all hosts on the subnet that respond to ICMP requests.
It's pretty hard to see in the graphic above but responding hosts are colored green. Well this is great. So now I know who else is on the subnet, you know, on the safe & soft inside.
Oh, and a handy traceroute utility to maybe help get more details of the network infrastructure.
So, I want to take this one step further.
Net Utility
Now I have to change my focus to another site here but basically here I am able to use the port scan feature of Net Utility to see if the host has an open port. This will give you some idea of the role of the host and maybe the firewall rules or lack thereof.
and as we see it's open (obviously)
And then there is also the really handy whois utility too.
And another utility included with this tool is the IP Address Information. This will show you your IP address AND the wireless networks external IP address. Nice!
I found this utility and i thought I would update the post with it. It does basicaly what it says onthe tin. It port scans a host.
It has a few otions where you can set the ports, select a range or let it scan well known ports. And the speed of the scan can be adjusted. It's pretty basic but its the best out there that I have found.
I have tested this on a couple of devices and it seems okay. The option to guess the OS is just that, a guess. But it's not bad and it's fun.
Most of the utilities do have additional functionality on top of what I have shown here.

Great post. Thanks for pointing out those tools. The one thing I don't like about Wifinder and WiFiFoFum are that even though both can see wifi networks with hidden SSIDs, neither have a method to determine that SSID. This should be possible...

I know what you mean. I guess if you were happy to jail break the iPhone you could get kismet on it but I'm not ready to do that just yet. If I do I'll be sure to blog about it.
- October 28, 2008 at 12:08 AM
do any of the WD apps have a faciltiy to save a log file that you can save and possibly use with other apps to plot netowrks in a given area/route, that would be awesome for wardriving

There certainly is. See my other wardriving post for details on WiFiFofum which is the tool your looking for.

You've got to check out yFy Network Finder if you want to do any war driving.

IMHO a very good app for scanning a network for hosts is called iNet! It also has other features such as Wake on Lan, PortScan (which isnt very effective), and ping!
Also, there are a ton of jailbreak command line tools out there as well such as nmap, of course telnet, tracert, ping, ssh, etc, and one of my favorites is pirni, an ARP spoofer!
And FTR I don't believe kismet has been ported to the iPhone just yet ;)
Aircrack has though! But no monitor mode, just the cracking portion...
- June 13, 2010 at 5:23 AM
Hey Syn, great post! These are great tools for unjailbroken, and jailbroken users for that matter...
I just wanted to point out that jailbreaking can give you lots of tools such as nmap, telnet, ping, ssh, Metasploit (yes even metasploit! ;)), pirni (an ARP spoofer), and others! Sadly, kismet isn't ported yet =(
One last thing, since you are in the UK, there is an app called iWep Pro used to launch dictionary attacks against many popular routers in the UK such as BTHomeHub!

Thanks for the comments guys.
George - i'll be sure to check out iWep Pro, it sounds interesting
- June 14, 2010 at 6:28 PM
I think its jailbreak only though ;) I doubt apple would allow a cracking app
Here's the easiest jailbreak tool just if you need it =)

In Jetty5, MultiPartRequest was used for file uploading. In Jetty6, MultiPartRequest was changed to MultiPartFilter.
MultiPartFilter decodes the multipart/form-data stream sent by a HTML form that uses a file input item. A File object is then created and stored to the request as an attribute. The attribute name is equal to the name of the file input item of the form being submitted. Therefore if you have a file input item with a name of "userfile1", the attribute name for the File object is "userfile1".
Here is a quick tutorial for uploading files.
First, create the page with a form of enctype equal to multipart/form-data. File uploading won't work if you have a different enctype. Inside the form element, add an input file item.
Create a web.xml with filter and servlet mapping for /fileupload url because that's the action we specified in our form.
Create a FileUpload servlet.
The FileUpload servlet above simply stores the File being uploaded to the project target directory.
Simply modify the FileUpload servlet to your desired result. Simply bear in mind that the attribute name that you should get, should be the same as the file input item of the form.

In my efforts to improve, maintain or restore a patient's health and well-being, I strive to provide competent, compassionate, personalized care. I keep an open mind but give advice based on scientifically validated information. Communication is paramount and I encourage every patient to be involved in the decision making and treatment plan process. A patient should be able to be seen within a day for acute illness and should not sit in our waiting room for more than ten minutes (unless there is an emergency). I like to joke and have fun when appropriate. I'm always interested in hearing what my staff and I do well and where improvement can be made.Personal Interests

text: After spending 15 years in Corporate America it didn't take long for me to realize that my generation, Generation X, quickly fell into the traditions of our parent's generation, the Boomers. We all commute to work in our high rise buildings, we peer our heads over our desk in North Cubeland, we work 9-5, take our 2-4 weeks of vacation each year, and spend most of our days in conference rooms having meetings about our meetings. In the last decade we've started to see innovations with flexible work schedules, work from home options and creative work spaces. As Gen Xers this was liberating and we began to feel like we had work life balance.

The Erie community filled the Great Hall of the Bayfront Convention Center where LECOM held its 18th annual scholarship auction and dinner. Nearly 900 guests were in attendance bidding on 600 items in both a silent and a live auction. Items ranged from household goods, artwork, and sports memorabilia to vacations, sporting event tickets and even a private Lake Erie sunset cruise.
"The purpose is to raise dollars for the scholarship fund for students to help with their debt. But more importantly it allows LECOM to showcase itself to the community" said LECOM President John M. Ferretti, D.O.
The auction attracts community leaders, LECOM alumni and businesses who view LECOM as a major community asset.
Among the guests was former Pittsburgh Steeler cornerback Dwayne Woodruff. Known as one of the toughest defensive players in the NFL, Woodruff is now Judge Woodruff, a member of the Juvenile Court Judges Commission in Allegheny County. The judge signed autographs for delighted fans and got the crowd ready for the live auction by relating tales of the Superbowl XIV championship won by the Steelers. Judge Woodruff was a guest of Karl Falk, DO, a LECOM faculty member and Judge Stephanie Domitrovich from the Erie County court.
All proceeds from the auction benefited the LECOM Scholarship Fund and all items available to bid on were donated from individuals and businesses. While contributions continue to be tabulated, the auction is close to reaching $900,000.
"This was the largest participation in the history of the auction, which I feel demonstrates the degree of impact LECOM has on the community. It's such an overwhelming response to helping us in regards to student scholarships" said Dr. Ferretti.
This auction was the culmination of all the scholarship fundraising efforts LECOM holds throughout the year between the Erie, Pa., Bradenton, Fl., and Seton Hill in Greensburg, Pa. campuses.

Eastern North Carolina could get a new craft beer brewery next year that should satisfy an army of beer lovers looking for something different.
Just as unique as the quality brewery will be to the area is the opportunity for the public to decide where it will be located within the
Dustin Canestorp, founder and "general" of James City-based craft beer store Beer Army Outpost who plans to build the brewery, said they are asking for donations to see what kind of support they would get in different communities and to offset costs of building the brewery.
Once the brewery location is decided, and then up and running, Beer Army will give all of the donated money back to charity in the donor's name, he said.
Donors who initially support the brewery will receive merchandise such as beer festival tickets and a plaque on the "Wall of Honor" as a founding member of the Beer Army Combat Brewery, said Canestorp, an 18-year active-duty Marine.
Beer Army started in February 2007 while Canestorp was deployed in
"They said, 'Why don't you do something about it?' like put on a beer festival," Canestorp said. "That's the way Marines are. You don't talk about it. You do it."
A craft beer festival became the first phase of a plan to eventually build a microbrewery in
"It was a huge success," he said. "We ran it like a military operation, and we got a lot of requests from other towns."
The following year Canestorp held another craft beer festival in
The festivals, which have become annual events, have had about a $1.4 million economic impact on
Already, Beer Army has supported numerous charities and nonprofits through its Beer Army S.H.I.E.L.D. Initiative program. Since opening a retail outlet, it has donated more than $70,000 and a portion of all proceeds to charities or nonprofits like MERCI Clinic, Museum of the Marine and the New Bern Historical Society, Canestorp said.
After the festivals brought recognition to craft beers, Beer Army initiated its second phase this year, opening a 3,000-square-foot retail store in the
"We decided to open it here because
The Beer Army Outpost, which has about 500 different microbrew beer brands, has become hugely successfully with a growing fan base, Canestorp said.
Now Canestorp said they are focusing on phase three of the idea that started while he was on deployment. Once a location is selected, the Beer Army Combat Brewery may produce styles such as Indian Pale Ale, Belgian blondes, robust porters, Irish reds, and perhaps others, he said.
Canestorp said he was sending Jeff Brungard, an avid home brewer and employee of Beer Army, to train as his "brewing officer," what other breweries would call brewmaster, to the Siebel Institute of Technology in Chicago and then to Munich, Germany to learn more about the science of brewing beer and commercial brewing.
Brungard, who retired from the Marines in June after 28 years of service, said Canestorp knew him from the quality of beers he has home brewed for the past 16 years. He will leave Sept. 8 to study two months in
"I'm extremely excited about it," he said.
The Beer Army Combat Brewery should be in production in June, Canestorp said. If he finds the right facility, he said he thinks he could be in production sooner.
Initially the brewery will employ 10 workers, but within three to five years, Canestorp said he hopes to employ 18 to 24 workers. The business is expected to generate $2.6 million in economic impact on
People can go online to make donations and vote their choice of a location for the Beer Army Combat Brewery at www.BeerArmyCombatBrewery.com or http://www.indiegogo.com/beerarmy.com.

To captain the Grey College 1st XV is no easy feat, but to achieve this privilege in only his second year at the proud rugby school makes this achievement even more illustrious for this 18-year-old.
The Bloemfontein eighthman commands so much respect that straight after moving from local rivals Jim Fouche in 2007, he was fast-tracked to the 1st XV while still in Grade 11.
Grey coach Dries van der Wal says Theisinger deserves the accolades.
'Adriaan is very popular among his fellow players and he has also earned the respect of his peers and opposition alike,' he says. 'I first saw him when Grey were playing against Jim Fouche two years ago. I was immediately impressed with his physical presence on the field. He's a massive guy, and he had a high work rate during that entire match.'
The monumental performance from Theisinger helped Jim Fouche hold Grey to a 5-all draw that day, a result definitely worth shouting about. From that performance, the bustling No 8 was always destined for bigger things – Van der Wal knew instantly that the youngster had to come to Grey.
Standing at 1.96m and weighing 100kg, Theisinger is an imposing figure. In addition to his natural stature he trains relentlessly in the gym and on the field.
Due to his height and size, there was always going to be an attempt to move Theisinger to lock. This experiment was tried, and it failed.
'In Grade 10 he played there a while, but he didn't like it. He's a natural eighthman so he won't be moving again,' explains Van der Wal.
At the time of writing in 2008 Theisinger had led Grey to five wins in five matches.
'His form has been magnificent this season and he has undoubtedly been a major contributor to the team's success,' says Van der Wal. 'He is a very strong and agile player who communicates well on the field, and this is vital for any captain. His knowledge of the game is another aspect that sets him apart from other players.'
Theisinger has come through the representative ranks in the province and played No 8 for the Free State Craven Week team in 2007. He also represented Free State U16 in 2006.
Theisinger plans on playing professional rugby in 2009 and will stay at the Free State Rugby Union. His older brother Bernd plays centre for the Cheetahs in the Vodacom Cup, and it would seem Adriaan will reach that level, and beyond, very soon.

The C# Ecosystem can be extended with custom coding rules either by:
- defining them directly through the SonarQube web interface using XPath expressions
- reusing custom rules defined in external tools such as FxCop, Gendarme or StyleCop
Extending Coding Rules using XPath
New coding rules can be added using XPath. See the related documentation.
To navigate the AST, download the SSLR CSharp Toolkit.
Reusing Custom Rules from External Tools
You can reference your custom rules from FxCop and/or Gendarme and/or StyleCop in SonarQube:
- Write a piece of XML to reference your custom coding rules. See formats below.
- Go to Settings > Configuration > General Settings > .Net FxCop or .Net Gendarme or C# StyleCop
- Paste your XML in .NET/C# XXX custom rules
- Click on Save .NET/C# XXX settings
- Restart your SonarQube server
- Activate your custom coding rules in your C# quality profiles
FxCop Format
RULE_CLASS: name of the .NET rule class
ASSEMBLY.DLL: name of the dll assembly file containing the rule class
The XML fragment above assumes that the dll is located in the same directory as the standard FxCop assembly rules files.
Note: to help write this XML file, "vladonemo" has written a C# program that generates this file based on your custom rules DLL. You can check this out on GitHub, but be aware that it comes with no guarantee.
Let's assume that you have implemented a rule that checks whether a variable name follows a specific naming convention or not. You have implemented it in a class called "VariableConventionNameCheck", and you have compiled it into a "MyNamingConvetions.dll" assembly file. Then, you should write the following piece of XML:
Gendarme Format
RULE_CLASS: name of the .NET rule class
ASSEMBLY.DLL: name of the dll assembly file containing the rule class. This file should be located in the installation directory of Gendarme, among the dll files provided by Gendarme out of the box. See the example of FxCop XML format, it is the same principle.

Truett-McConnell alumna Jessie White, class of '58, was a member of a homecoming court, a cheerleader, a choir member and soloist. She is a parent of a TM alum, and Jessie later served as a trustee for her alma mater. In addition, for 11 years she served in the Truett-McConnell advancement office and was director of alumni relations.
However, September 27 dawned as no other day for Jessie when she awoke in heaven with the Lord she served for her entire life. Jessie's inoperable condition on Earth was healed the moment she went home.
"We are so pleased to have enjoyed a recent visit with Jessie," said John Yarbrough, director of alumni relations. "And I am grateful that your Alumni Association Executive Committee acted rapidly to confer upon such a distinguished alumna the Meritorious Service Award on Sept. 18, just nine day before her passing."
School officials also named the Jessie White Scholarship Fund in her honor.
Dr. Emir Caner, president of Truett-McConnell joined Yarbrough and others on the visit with Jessie.
"How are your children?" Jessie asked Caner when he entered the room.
After Yarbrough showed Jessie some photographs from her 1958 class, he gave her a card signed with well wishes from many who served with her on TM's staff.
"Jessie and I got to know one another when she was director of alumni relations in the 80s," Yarbrough said. "It was a privilege to serve with her at that time as an alum, and it was a privilege to present to her the much deserved Meritorious Service Award."
Jessie was both visibly moved and gracious when receiving the award.
When Caner informed Jessie of the scholarship fund named in her honor, he asked, "What do you want those who receive the scholarship to know?"
"To serve the Lord," she quipped without hesitation. Jessie continued to show her love for her alma mater by sharing the names of people who could assist with the advancement of the college.
A conversation including comments and memories about Truett-McConnell College continued, and then Jessie's pastor, Dan Rosser (Pleasant Grove BC, Ellijay), led the group in prayer.
"Doctors had told Jessie that there was nothing more they could do," Yarbrough told TMNews. "However, Jessie's faith, perseverance and supportive group of family, friends and a loving church fellowship sustained her until she went to be with the Lord."
Others visiting Jessie were here sister, Betty Jean Nealey, and friend, TM alumna Betty Jo Holt ('58).
Jessie's home-going was celebrated Sept. 29 at her church, the Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in Ellijay.
Something special is happening on a campus that has been so special for decades. Since school began a month ago, we have seen students saved in the dorms weekly. Then, two weeks ago, we were privileged to see the hand of God move in such a way during chapel service that more than sixty students responded to a call to salvation and/or assurance of salvation. That evening, more than one hundred students spontaneously met at the cross to pray over new believers in Christ. Last week, the move of God continued as we saw another student saved after chapel.
As you can imagine, I am continually amazed at how the Lord moves throughout our faculty, staff, and students. And I repeatedly remind our students that we stand on the shoulders of giants. What is happening at Truett-McConnell College would not be possible without our faithful forebearers, those who have stood in the gap and made His name known since 1946.
It is so important that we surround this generation with our love and support. Indeed, we cannot reach this generation unless we teach this generation. That is why I hope you will join us on Alumni Weekend and personally see what the Lord is doing through the lives of the hundreds who walk this campus daily. This time will give you a chance to be reacquainted with old friends as well as see where the past meets the future. I hope you will make plans now to enjoy the beauty of the North Georgia mountains during one of the most spectacular times of the year.
To make your reservations for Alumni weekend and find out more, go to www.truett.edu.
Thanks you for love, prayers and support for Truett-McConnell. We could not experience what is happening on and through this campus with the support of friends like you.

It is estimated that between 60-70 percent of Americans do not have a will. Everyone has an estate, and everyone needs a plan. However, estate planning is especially important for women. The following outline notes nine things everyone should know about estate planning and why it is important to make plans now.
1. Estate planning affects women more than men. Women live longer and are more likely to be the surviving spouse. Therefore, women need their assets to last longer than men's, and women are more likely to make the final decisions on distributing assets.
2. The current state of estate planning is fluctuating. Given the situation in Congress regarding legislation on some estate planning issues, this is a critical time to be certain that your estate plan is in place and that it will accomplish what you wish.
3. There are both challenges and benefits to effective planning:
Among your challenges:
Among the many benefits:
4. Charitable giving can be part of good estate planning. You are probably part of the majority of American households which have made charitable gifts throughout your lifetime. The same reasons you give during your lifetime are the reasons you might consider giving through your estate as well. Every dollar you give to Truett-McConnell College carries your values. Good planning may allow you to redirect tax dollars to charitable giving.
5. Know what you have, and where it is located. Estate planning is an act of love for your family and friends. Part of that act is putting things in place so that family and friends don't have to make decisions with inadequate information at a stressful time. It is also a simple matter of having things in order so that you and others can find needed documents and information on short notice, such as before an unexpected trip to the hospital or a planned trip out of the country. Keeping all relevant documents together are accessible makes it easier on everyone. Make lists. Know who owns everything and how it is owned, where it is located and an idea of value.
6. Create the necessary documents. Besides having a will, you also need to designate power of attorney and health care power of attorney, and you need advanced directives. Whom do you trust to make decisions about your finances, your health care, and your life? Have an alternate as well.
7. You will probably need at least one professional advisor, e.g., an attorney, CPA, financial planner, trust officer, etc. A will is best created by an attorney. Having a poorly crafted will is worse than not having a will at all. Depending on your situation, you may also find that you need to consult with other advisors. Note: When you consult with an attorney, you will almost certainly have to bring up charitable giving because he or she may not do so.
8. Keep your beneficiary designations up to date. Many retirement accounts and insurance policies are distributed according to a beneficiary designation form. These are easily updated or changed as needed, but they should be checked regularly. These distributions are directed by the forms on file, not by your will. For example, your insurance company will not know what your will says, nor consult your attorney, so be sure that your documents are in agreement.
9. Keep your plan updated. Pick a good time to review your plan each year and stick to it. Review it when there is any major change in your assets, your income level, your employment, or your family status. Your plan won't be any good if it is outdated.
A lack of planning can adversely affect families with young children or women who own a business. Women who are single or previously married also have issues that need attention.

Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual. ..Carl Sagan

Quarry, I am doing better, thank you so much. I hope Pieper continues to improve and enjoy the scalp massages. I go to pick up Dugan's ashes from the vet today. Since he didn't really have a favorite place -- other than wherever I was -- I'm going find a nice box and keep them around for a while. If/when something else seems right, I'll know it, but for now, I'm just going to relax and enjoy his favorite time of year. With all that Beardie hair, he loved it when summer gave way to autumn, and he could snooze outside in the crisp air.
I'm house twins -- and leather sisters -- with Kewart today in Lutens Boxeuses. Plum, leather, and spices ... YUM!
Good morning all!! Today I'm wearing Thierry Mugler Angel Garden of Stars - La Rose Angel
SotE - Chanel Sycomore.
Salutation, scented sociables!
Wearing a new fave, which Mr. Q remarked again was very pleasant: Bond No. 9 for Mothers. I got three more samples coming from an eek!-bay purchase.
Wouldn't we all have fun joining gandhajala at the Plants & 'Fumes presentation? I'm sitting between PerfumedLady and Lilybelle.
An extra hug and waggy tail for ExtremeK.
Yesterday I took advantage of a very agreeable deal off Craigslist. We're very excited to upgrade, especially under the circumstances.

Evening all you fragrant folk. Been a busy one today.
SotD was EL Pleasures not sure why but I'm wanting my spring scents recently after craving amber and rich vanilla comfort during the late summer.
Quarry, she's a beauty!
ExtremeK, sending you a big hug in Dugan's honor. My mother keeps her two dogs' ashes in a beautiful lacquered box. She can't let them go right now, but one day she will when the time is right. I completely understand your feelings.
I'm wearing Chantilly over Anne Pliska as SotA/E. These two work well together.

Hello again!
I'm in another posh, iris-y leather for the afternoon, Citizen Queen by Juliette Has a Gun.
Congrats to Quarry on your shiny new truck!
More hugs for ((ExtremeK)).
Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual. ..Carl Sagan
WOW Quarry. Love it!
Jacques Fath Chine de Chine tonight, from a Basenotes friend. Thinking about G and hoping that he is having a wonderful evening.

Hey, thanks PerfumedLady - you smell awfully pretty too!

I was wearing Ubar again today.
Tomorrow is going to be an adventurous day for me!
What to wear for a demonstration?
Just a dab of Ralph Rocks on the wrists. It's lasted all day!
I send thee this sweet perfume a fragrance to the fragrant, as one would offer wine to the god of wine.
In a world where 6 million people are added each month, every landscape matters.
Spent most of the day "shadowing" someone as part of a job application. Multi step hiring process but overall positive.....nice bunch of people.
I wasn't sure of the company policy with regards to fragrance, so i kept
it light. Annick Goutal Eau de Sud
SOTE is Annick Goutal Folvaril....wrong season but I still love it.

ANAHEIM – At 8 a.m. today, Tonya Mickesh and Jeff Reitz were to go through the entrance turnstiles to Disneyland for the 366th day in a row. It's a journey that's seen them spend 24 hours in the park for the 24-hour Leap Day, watch baby ducks grow up, and go from unemployed to full-time jobs – while becoming nationally known as the "everyday Disneyland couple."
"It was a way to keep ourselves occupied because we didn't have jobs," said Mickesh about the initial reasons behind their self-imposed challenge. "Originally, we thought we'd get jobs and stop doing it, but we kept it going."
Going to Disneyland got tougher during the year, as they both found full-time jobs. Mickesh's job started in late April and entailed working the second shift, so they would go in the mornings. Then Reitz found a job in September, making it difficult to go together. So during the week they would go at separate times, leaving the weekends for joint trips as the year progressed.
Click here to watch a video of their 366th visit.
The couple met in July 2006 during a dive off the coast of Santa Catalina – Reitz is a certified diver. Mickesh was on a date with someone else. But they got to talking and found they had a common interest in Disneyland and things went from there.
To enter the park, the couple has a ritual. They park every day in the Mickey & Friends parking structure – Reitz kept a collection of the parking garage tickets. Then they take the tram and use the premium annual passes they received as gifts to first enter Disneyland, even if they were spending time at Disney California Adventure – something they started doing more after the openings of Cars Land and Buena Vista Street in June.
During the yearlong challenge, there were days they nearly didn't make it. Reitz came off a planned dive in Ventura late, due to problems with the boat. He sped down the freeways to make it to the front gate with 20 minutes to spare.
Along the way, they've met and become friends with cast members and found hidden places to watch the fireworks. Once they were on the Storybook Land Canal boats and the cast member stopped the boat in front of Pinocchio's Village when the fireworks started. Other times they were riding the Matterhorn or Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Another out-of-the-way spot was from the top deck of the Mark Twain steamboat.
Their plans for 2013 include a visit Tuesday, but after that they say they will slow down a little.
"It's a fun place to go and meet people and hang out with friends," Reitz said.
Fun facts about visiting Disneyland every day
Tonya Mickesh and Jeff Reitz have visited Disneyland every day in 2012. During that time they've compiled some favorites, not so favorites and some other interesting tidbits.
Walking: They both have a pedometer application on their smartphones called "Accuped." According to Reitz, they walk between 10,000 and 20,000 steps each visit apiece. The device converts those steps to miles, making the average walk each visit between two and four miles. On Veterans Day, Reitz clocked 6.9 miles.
Shoes: Mickesh had a brand new pair of flip-flops she started wearing at the beginning of the year. That pair of shoes is now nearly worn out.
Favorite attraction: For Mickesh it is Pirates of the Caribbean. For Reitz, it is the Matterhorn, which he says his parents took on him when he was a baby. The couple enjoys riding Space Mountain together, and frequently mug for the on-ride still camera.

Portland is a major hub of sex trafficking in adolescents, mostly girls, and disproportionately teens of color. The problem extends through Oregon and up and down the I-5 corridor.

Come learn about new laws that focus on the traffickers, efforts to help the teens, and why solutions are so difficult to find.

There's no use trying to figure out the permutations in play or the possible paths the Elon University men's basketball team could travel in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament.
This postseason event has an indecipherable bracket.
In fact, it's a bracket that presently doesn't exist.
So, better for the Phoenix's focus and preparation to live in the moment — that's a must, really — entering tonight's first-round CIT game at Canisius
"It fits perfectly where we can completely hone in on what's in front of us right now," Elon coach Matt Matheny said, "which is what we want to do anyway."
This experience touches historical levels, thanks to a team that has authored Elon's most successful season in 14 years as a Division I member.
The program is competing in a postseason for the first time since 1997, when the school was known as the Elon College Fightin' Christians and competed on the Division II level.
An Elon victory tonight would deliver its first postseason win since the 1970 NAIA Tournament.
"The neatest thing is being able to play long into March," guard Jack Isenbarger said, "rather than sitting at home or sitting on the couch or sitting at a restaurant watching NCAA games.
"I'm excited for the CIT and hopefully to be able to fill out a bracket with Elon on it. Although it's not necessarily the NCAA Tournament, it's still an opportunity to win a championship, which is very cool."
As for Isenbarger's bracketology hopes, even a crystal ball and magic pen might not uncover the mysteries of the CIT's 32-team field.
There are no pairings or configurations beyond the first round. Teams that win and advance then are notified of their next assignment by the CIT.
And that's the manner in which the tournament unfolds, with the reshuffling and "reseeding" of the CIT picking the matchups — presumably sending the teams that own lower RPIs to play against the teams that have higher RPIs.
Furthering the unknown is the opponent, Canisius of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference.
Elon played 18 Southern Conference games in the regular season, then two more in the league tournament, an intensifying grind considering the intimate knowledge of details and nuances involved.
Now, Canisius under first-year coach Jim Baron, presents something of a blank slate. The Golden Griffins knock down 3-pointers (286 on the season) at higher rate than 3-point proficient Elon (249 on the season). Billy Baron, the son of the coach, who began his playing career at Virginia, leads Canisius in scoring (16.9 points per game).
"It's fun. It's different. It's exciting," Matheny said of preparing for tonight's game. "The other day we had practice on St. Patrick's Day. Think about that, it's the middle of March. That's special for our program. An opportunity to practice on St. Patrick's Day, that's the way it should be. We want it to be that way every year. That's what we want for our program."
Isenbarger, whose energy and effectiveness in the Southern Conference Tournament significantly were drained by a sinus infection, is taking medicine and has been feeling better. He sat out two of Elon's practices last week while recovering, and also got 13 hours of sleep one night.
Tournament tip-off
What: CollegeInsider.com Tournament
Who: Elon (21-11) at Canisuis (18-13)
When: 7 tonight

Inter-institutional Enrollment
Inter-institutional enrollment is a program that allows qualifying students at University System of Maryland (USM) institutions to take selected courses at other USM campuses while only paying tuition at their home school. Through the program, students register for courses at both their home and host institutions, but are billed only by their home school. At the end of the semester, the student's credits and grades from the host institution are transferred to their home institution. This differs from standard transfer coursework in that both credits and grades transfer. The deadline for registering for courses at another institution is two weeks before the start of the semester.

Why all the hype for installing lots of RAM?
by Lee Koo (ADMIN) - 10/23/09 1:56 PM
Why all the hype for installing lots of RAM when the system doesn't utilize it?
I have always followed the advice of this community, and they have always been great suggestions. I have one question. I have 3GBs of RAM on my current Dell 531S and my new Dell 546, which I will be receiving, will have 4GB of RAM. I have two RAM monitors on my systems that keep an eye on RAM usage. They never go above 1GB and most of the time it is at 225MB to 500MB of usage. So why all the hype for lots of RAM? I periodically do film editing and it still uses only a little RAM. Is there something I am not doing to use more RAM? Is there a way to get the computer to utilize more, a setting I should redo or set? Suggestions and comments appreciated.

A criminal complaint filed in the Magistrate Court of Mingo County by the West Virginia State Police charges a Logan County woman with sexual assault, third degree, saying she engaged in sexual intercourse with a juvenile male, between the approximate ages of 13 and 15.
An officer who spoke with the juvenile noted that sexual intercourse did, in fact, occur at the defendant's residence.
Cheryl Ann Spurlock, 32, of Ethel, did not give the appearance of the typical "cougar." She was married to the pastor of a church, had two daughters, ages two and nine months and worked at the June Montgomery Harless Children's Home.
Since, according to a member of her husband's family, she allegedly "fell in love" with a juvenile, even the appearance of her former life is gone.
She no longer has a job at the June Montgomery Harless Children's Home, who declined comment other than to say she was no longer employed there.
Her husband filed for divorce and reportedly, Ms. Spurlock filed for custody of her daughters. When law enforcement went with her to get the daughters after temporary custody in her favor was allegedly granted, the father's family told them to check the system for outstanding warrants. That's when Ms. Spurlock was arrested on the outstanding warrant from Mingo County and lodged in the Western Regional Jail. Her bond is set at $25,000.
Now, the father has custody the girls and family members say he also got an order of protection against Ms. Spurlock.
If convicted of this felony charge, Ms. Spurlock could face imprisonment in a state correctional facility not less than one year nor more than five years, or fined not more than ten thousand dollars and imprisoned in a state correctional facility not less than one year nor more than five years.

Why don't the top percent, the best of the best, the Ryan Halls and Kara Gouchers, give off-road racing a try? James Howard, a longtime high school and college coach, Olympic trials marathoner and a two-time winner of the Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run, identifies the elite runner's typical progression.
"Most competitive road and track runners have progressed through some type of youth or high school and college running program that offers cross country and track," Howard muses, reflecting many Running Times readers' experience. "Cross country offers the fast racer the experience of running over dirt and grass on wide trails at distances that range from 2 miles to 12K. So, most serious runners will progress to longer flat road racing distances such as the half marathon and marathon but will not transition to longer trail racing because they are more interested in personal records at established distances. When you transition to technical trail, personal records are slower and race-specific. Most serious road racers do not feel the need to race on trails longer than the distances offered in the sport of cross country and do not care about the challenge that technical trail running offers."
Gary Lepisto, who has coached both high school and adult endurance athletes for 30 years, including Brandy Erholtz, says, "I think there are a few good reasons why road racers don't do many trail races. Money is the first." Lepisto adds, "There is a perception that trail racing is for slow people, is not very hard and is not 'real' racing. The risk of injury is great too–the chance of falling or twisting an ankle is greatly improved."
David Riddle, an aerospace engineer, feels that there's a huge mental component required for the road-to-trail conversion, too. "For a 15:00 5K guy, it's tough mentally to accept that they have to run 8:00 or 9:00 pace on some trails. They might worry that running that slow will negatively impact their speed."
Erholtz, who works full-time as a special education teacher, believes competitive road runners may not see the challenge in trail races. "I think some competitive road and track runners see our 'slow' times and think trail racing wouldn't push them enough. I think many who try are humbled by the 'skill' it can take to run up and down mountains, over rocks and tree roots."
Because so many variables enter the equation, even the most versatile runners and their coaches rarely find the transition to off-road racing seamless. Howard lists the most common problems a serious road racer encounters when crossing over to technical trail racing:
Undeveloped foot/eye coordination needed for technical trails.
Undeveloped ability to judge proper race pace for hilly terrain.
Undeveloped habit of carrying fluids in bottles.
Difficulty identifying and interpreting trail markings.
Lack of muscle development for long uphill and downhill running.
If these issues aren't resolved, some bumps and bruises to the body and ego are inevitable. Take, for instance, Jeff Caba's teasing challenge to his now-wife Katie on their first date: "How fast can you run? I bet I can beat you." A few years later at a local trail half marathon a humbled husband almost had to eat his words.
"I had one of my worst races. I almost got beat by my wife, who is a great runner, but usually not my top competition. I went out way too hard, attacked the first series of steep hills too aggressively and I had to begin the walk-jog to the finish line. I fortunately held off my wife by 19 seconds. I had unrealistic expectations as far as pace and I failed to adjust to the terrain."
Lepisto believes the most difficult aspect of training clients like Erholtz has been overcoming trail running's erratic pace changes. "Trail races are like interval sessions," he says. "You have hills you must run hard, technical sections on which you can't recover but easier smooth sections where you can regroup. My favorite trait in a good trail runner is the ability to suffer."
Smith, who coaches for the Jack Daniels-inspired Run S.M.A.R.T. Project, stresses the importance of practicing these pace changes.
"If I were training a road runner for a road race, I'd want them to become very comfortable at race pace. We'd practice until they could take a nap at race pace. But on the trails, this rhythm running won't work. A trail runner must be very good at changing gears. They have to be used to running at a maximal effort but changing their pace significantly during the race."
