Aroma cup sets are typically used for Gongfu style tea brewing. Both cups are first filled and heated with hot water, then emptied. Prepared tea is poured into the tall scenting aroma cup and the empty, shorter sipping cup inverted over the top of the scenting cup. Held together, both are again inverted, placing the sipping cup on the bottom. As the scent cup is lifted out of the sipping cup, air is pulled through the tea, trapping a mist of the fragrant brew in the emptied cup. The scent cup can then be rolled back and forth between the palms as you inhale its fragrance.
Size: Tray - 2.5" x 4.5"
Scent Cup - Approx. 2.5" d., 1" h. 1.5 ounce capacity.
Sipping Cup - Approx. 1.25" d., 2.25" h. 1.5 ounce capacity.

Montpellier will face Toulouse in the French Top 14 final after they upset Racing Metro 26-25 in Marseille.
Racing outscored Montpellier three tries to two while the latter also received two yellow cards during the game. However, Montpellier still edged a win thanks to the boot of wing Martin Bustos Moyana.
Bustos Moyana's was influential as he kicked 16 points via two conversions and four penalties – his fourth three-pointer in the 78th-minute clinched the closely contested match. Outside centre Sylvain Mirande and inside centre Santiago Fernandez also crossed the chalk for the victors.
Racing scored their points with tries through wing Sireli Bobo, flyhalf Jonathan Wisniewski and replacement lock Jone Naliko. Wisnieski also slotted a conversion and two penalties while inside centre Frans Steyn added a penalty early on.
Steyn will now head home a week earlier than expected. He will be given four weeks rest and should be ready to feature for the Springboks in the Tri-Nations in July.

Guest blog by ASPCA Senior Feline Behavior Counselor Katie Watts
Hal is a four-year-old cat who was found on the street, abandoned in a box. His teeth were severely decayed, and he was in extreme pain—so much so that he couldn't groom himself and had become severely matted as a result. After arriving at the shelter, Hal was groomed, all his fur shaved. He also had to have several teeth extracted.
He was soon on the road to recovery, but it was clear that the ordeal had left him traumatized. Hal spent the first week huddled at the back of his cage, curled up in a small ball and barely moving. He was given a quiet space to settle and provided with a box to snuggle in and a "privacy curtain."
Several staff members started trying to make friends, offering him tasty treats and hoping to coax him out of his shell. Slowly but surely, Hal began to warm up. First it was a slight rub on a hand as he was petted, and then he was at the front of his cage, ready with rubs and purrs.
When he was ready, Hal was taken to visit a staff office, where he could be socialized further. From that point, he couldn't get enough attention, and it was clear all Hal wanted was a warm lap and some chin scratches. He was so affectionate toward people that he would even sit at the office door, patiently waiting for a staff member to return, and once she was back, he happily settled on her lap again.
Hal has come a long way and survived a great deal. He now waits patiently, always at the door of his cat condo, ready to jump in a lap at the first opportunity. He even grooms his new friends by licking them as they pet him! All he needs now is a quiet home with somebody who will provide him with the love he so deserves.
Hal is available for adoption at the ASPCA Adoption Center. If you are interested in adopting please call our Adoptions department in New York City at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4900. To learn more about Hal, please visit his page.
I will pray and hope the Jesus will provide for Hal anew warm and loving home full of attention and someone that will love Hal as there own flesh and blood and provide for and love him until his last day on this earth and then see him in heaven one fine day (:
Awww, what a sweet boy. Please someone give him a forever home.
I remember my first time seeing Hal in his adorable pink shirt over a month ago. He was huddled in the corner of his cage, a tinge of sadness in his eyes. I was able to spend sime time with him in a socialization room a few days ago and what a sweetie he is! I sat a few feet away from him and allowed him to sniff my hand. After two or three strokes of his head, he climbed right into my lap and stayed for nearly twenty minutes. I hope this little guy finds the forever home he deserves.
He sounds like my Sylvester who I adopted from the Humane Society. He would not go near anyone when we got him, but now, he cannot get enough attention. He jumps in laps, rubs against legs, and meows until someone pets him. He has become very affectionate, and quite the character (he is part Maine Coon). He is my best buddy out of all of my animals. He is a joy to see.
I just took in a cat that has had a horrible start in life - he was a house cat and when his owners moved the threw him outside and drove away. Neighbor began feeding him because he was so confused and scared being outside - then a neighbor dog attacked him and tore open his shoulder - thankfully someone took him to the vet and then surrendered him to a local shelter - after foster was adopted and returned 2 months later very thin and scared of everything (almost feral like) then put at Petco to be adopted but basically shut down - stopped cleaning himself and wouldn't let anyone touch him. I have had him for 5 days now and he is better everyday. He lets you pet him and even let me approach him without running and hiding today. Long road ahead but he is so sweet!
You are an angel Nancy! Poor baby! He has really had some bad luck until you came along.
Oh thank you Nancy! I volunteer at a petsmart & some cats do not tolerate that environment but, what I try to explain to people is give them a week or two in your home (sometimes even less time) & their true personality will come out. Thank you for giving that poor kitty the life it deserves!
God Bless you Nancy! You are the best human person for that kitty and I wish only the best for the kitty and you. I am in Arizona and have 7 wonderful adopted cats, I wish I could go to New York and adopt Hal. I have a huge home and my kittys have so much love here (and room)! No more going hungry or love! Again, God bless you Nancy!

Since Carol M. Highsmith left her radio executive position 33 years ago, her quest has been to photographically preserve America – its architecture, landscapes, events and people. She has captured an astounding array of images including presidential collections, myriad monuments and historic buildings, and homes and belongings of American luminaries. Her work reflects an impressive combination of technical excellence, a keen artistic eye, a passion for history and architecture, and unbridled enthusiasm.More than 25,000 of Carol's images are showcased within one of the Library of Congress's six collections from its online photographic archive of 15 million images. She is the only living American photographer whose work the Library has chosen to spotlight.Carol calls the Library "the greatest preservation body of knowledge on earth, but except for my work, it hasn't stored much of a current, comprehensive visual record of America." So, she is single-handedly remedying that situation by embarking on a daunting photographic odyssey in conjunction with the Library calls "This is America!" It involves extensive travel to all 50 states and U.S. territories – one at a time -- to produce a meticulous visual study of the American scene.
This is America! Comes to Life
For this unparalleled cultural heritage project, Carol is following in the footsteps of photographic pioneer Frances Benjamin Johnston, who captured much of the American scene at the turn of the 20th century, and Dorothea Lange, who is best known for her haunting images of migrant workers and dispossessed Dust Bowl families during the 1930s. And like Johnston, she is donating all of her images copyright-free to the Library. "What's important to me is to record America during my lifetime so that we can see what we looked like and have a sense of who we were. And people throughout the world will get a fuller understanding of America and American life in the early 21st century hundreds and even a thousand years from now."Carol has already logged thousands of miles traveling to Alabama and California, where she's shot images ranging from cities and bayous and everyday scenes of American life to national icons such as Yosemite National Park and places off-the-beaten path that are unknown to most Californians. The Library has acquired 4,000 of her Alabama images and soon will be receiving 5,000 California photographs.
Mutual Digital Epiphanies
All of Carol's photos for "This is America!" are high-resolution digital images. The Library had earlier been somewhat indifferent about moving into the digital realm, according to Carol. "But when 9-11 occurred and digital images of that event were quickly being captured, the Library had an epiphany, realizing that it would need a format that could instantaneously grasp occurrences in real time and that film might not be it." Carol had a similar epiphany. While she had once worked primarily with cumbersome 4x5 large-format equipment over a broad span of her career, she started to realize that film was rapidly disappearing as a viable photographic and archival instrument. So began her transition to medium-format digital camera systems, initially with a Leaf Aptus 75 camera in 2005, and then Phase One's P45 camera system. She has been a faithful user of Phase One equipment ever since, including the P21 infrared camera, which she takes on cemetery shoots and when she wants to create dreamy and surprising moods. "I have a lot of fun with it." Once Carol decided on Phase One cameras, she looked carefully for the right retailer. "When you decide to buy a camera having the caliber of a Phase One, you need to deal with a company that's been in the business for a while, has a reputation for strong customer service and the technical knowledge to help you upgrade as the digital platform continues to improve. I found that company in Digital Transitions. When I accidentally damaged my camera last summer, Digital Transitions helped me through the crisis and fixed the back like it was brand new. They've also been there to give me technical advice when needed."
It is all in the detail
"I have never had a piece of equipment that I cherish like I do the Phase One camera. Also, it made me a hero at the Library of Congress because they had never seen anything like it either."
Carol demands "clean and crystal" fidelity from her images. Nowhere has this requirement been more crucial than when photographing the presidential collections of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Harry Truman and Dwight Eisenhower, the latter including "Ike's bedroom slippers and Mamie's lipstick." About five years ago, Carol was commissioned to photograph Lincoln's collection at Ford's Theatre, including the derringer used by John Wilkes Booth to assassinate the president and the compass he carried when fleeing Washington. "No one knew that Booth had scratched his identity onto the compass until I photographed it with the Phase One P45 camera system," she says. "The quality was so crisp that you could clearly see his initials scrawled from 140-some years ago."
Preserving America with the IQ180 digital back
For "This is America!", Carol is relying heavily on the Phase One 645DF+ camera with the IQ180 digital back and Capture One Pro 7 editing software. "Because of the high visibility associated with these particular photographs, I feel compelled to deliver the best images possible. And these images also need to withstand the test of time because they are being preserved for future generations. I'm working for longevity, and this Phase one camera system is helping me to record current times and scenes correctly. There's no better camera system. It is the platinum of cameras."Carol singles out the IQ180 back with its 80-megapixel capability as it "continuously delivers on the detail, precision and high resolution" that she requires and expects for "This is America! "Eighty megapixels are a necessity for me because of the road I'm walking with this project," she states. "The IQ180's menu with its scrolling up/down functionality is intuitive and easy to use. You don't need a master's degree to operate it. And the large screen on the back helps me see the images concisely, while the histogram, small image captures, level and data features on the side of the large image are very helpful. Although I often like to ponder on an image with my camera, all this information makes it very easy to quickly capture a scene if I need to. I also love the fact that I can shoot with an ISO as low as 35. Talk about quality!"Quality has been a recurring theme with Carol throughout her career. And when it comes to This is America!, she gives substantial credit to the 645F+ camera and IQ180, as well as the Capture One Pro 7 software for enabling her to achieve "high- quality" images. "When you've been a photographer for as long as I have, it's easy to take fine equipment for granted. I loved my large-format film cameras, but the quality of the images I see with my Phase One system constantly astonishes me. I'm continually in awe of what truly iconic equipment can capture. If a Phase One digital camera system had been available early on in my career, I'd have latched on to it, even if I'd had to save up and rent it."

Ramona's World
Ramona's World (Paperback)
The best year ever
That's what Ramona thought the fourth grade was going to be, but things aren't turning out as she hoped. Sure, she has a new best friend named Daisy. But how can she improve her spelling as her teacher insists, or be the role model for her baby sister, Roberta, that Mrs. Quimby expects? Fourth-grade life is full of adventure and challenges, and at the end of it all—a "zeroteenth" birthday to celebrate!
About the Author
Beverly Cleary is one of America's most beloved authors. As a child, she struggled with reading and writing. But by third grade, after spending much time in her public library in Portland, she found her skills had greatly improved. Before long, her school librarian was saying that she should write children's books when she grew up.
Instead she became a librarian. When a young boy asked her, "Where are the books about kids like us?" she remembered her teacher's encouragement and was inspired to write the books she'd longed to read but couldn't find when she was younger. She based her funny stories on her own neighborhood experiences and the sort of children she knew. And so, the Klickitat Street gang was born!
Mrs. Cleary's books have earned her many prestigious awards, including the American Library Association's Laura Ingalls Wilder Award, presented to her in recognition of her lasting contribution to children's literature. Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and Ramona and Her Father have also been named Newbery Honor Books. Her characters, including Beezus and Ramona Quimby, Henry Huggins, and Ralph, the motorcycle-riding mouse, have delighted children for generations.

This month, Professional Carwashing & Detailing tracked down recycling expert Matt Riggs from RecycleSpot.org to give detail operators an idea of how they can "green up" their businesses. RecycleSpot.org was developed by the Solid Waste Management District and the Mid-America Regional Council. It is funded partially by grants from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.
What follows are Riggs' top 12 recommendations for implementing a recycling program at your business.
1. Form a "green team". Approaching recycling as a team can help ensure the success of your recycling program. A "green team" is a group of employees interested in recycling and helping to set up a program. Identify a recycling point person to handle tasks such as answering staff questions, managing the green team and program oversight.
2. Determine materials you will recycle. Performing a waste audit can help. A waste audit is an inventory of the amount and type of solid waste (trash) produced at a location. Identify commonly recycled business items, such as:
3. Contact your property manager. Find out if there are any recycling programs in place. Ask them to provide office paper, cardboard, aluminum can and plastic bottle recycling as a service to building tenants. Remind them that recycling can reduce waste disposal costs.
4. On your own. If your property manager cannot provide recycling, or you are a small business, meet with your green team and decide what materials you want to recycle.
5. Contact a recycling company. Interview multiple companies and get price estimates for providing a dumpster and pickup services. Most recycling companies provide rebates on materials collected.
6. Consider drop-off recycling. If pickup services are not an option, another option is to take your recyclables to a drop-off recycling center.
7. Coordinate collection. Schedule a date for collection with your recycling service provider, janitorial crew and/or staff. Think about:
8. Communicate all this information to your entire staff and janitorial crew. Distribute fact sheets describing the new recycling program for employees and janitorial staff and post updates on your company's intranet site. Provide bins and collection containers as mentioned above and mark containers with signs labeled by item. It is helpful to use the "chasing arrows" recycling symbol.
9. Plan a fun kick-off event. Send a memo from management to all employees encouraging participation. Fun events, giveaways and refreshments could be provided and you can distribute fact sheets, signs and containers.
10. Let others know about your efforts. Write articles for the employee newsletter, intranet, and building and industry newsletters. Acknowledge people for changing their habits and keep people informed of the results of their efforts. Seek staff's suggestions. Send out press releases to the local media. You may also want to include information in customer or client mailings. Include your recycling efforts in company promotional pieces.
11. Have your green team meet regularly to evaluate your recycling program's progress. A successful program will continue to grow in volume recycled. The team can also address other green issues such as energy consumption and alternative transportation.
12. Stay in contact with staff. Update your staff regularly on the program's progress. Send out periodic recycling reminders. Train new employees about the recycling program.

The loss of three locks to the Springboks has resulted in the Vodacom Blue Bulls signing Hottie Louw.
The former Bok and Western Province player has signed for the duration of the Currie Cup and his services will be heavily relied upon with the likes of Victor Matfield, Bakkies Botha and Danie Rossouw missing.
Louw joins Francois van Schouwenburg, Adriaan Fondse and Cliffie Milton to form a powerful second-row unit from which coach Heyneke Meyer can choose from.
Louw will be on loan to the Bulls from the Llanelli Scarlets for the remainder of the Currie Cup.
"I have returned to South Africa to compete for a place in the Springbok side and I believe the only way to do this is to play in the Currie Cup," Louw said in a statement. "I would like to be in contention for a place in next year's World Cup squad, and depending on my inclusion in the Springbok touring squad at the end of this year, will weigh up my options with regards to returning to the UK."
Louw's agent, James Adams, confirmed that Louw did not turn his back on Western
Province, despite news reports to the contrary. He said that they had in fact been in contact with WP, but that the province did not get back to them with any offers.
Bulls coach Heyneke Meyer said that Louw, who will be joining the Bulls within the next two weeks, will be a huge asset to the province. "We have lost three locks to the Springboks, and Louw's experience will be invaluable to us. He will also be able to share this experience with the young, talented locks in the province, which will aid their development," Meyer said.
"Hottie is still relatively young and he is now entering his best years as a lock. I believe he still has a role to play at international level."

Going toe to toe with nail fungus
(NewsUSA) - Most people will walk the equivalent of three times around the earth in their lifetime. That's a huge amount of wear and tear on your foot's many bones, joints, tendons, ligaments and muscles -- and, more to the point, it increases the potential that you'll develop a very painful and/or unsightly case of toenail infection.
Specifically, we're talking onychomycosis, the medical term for fungal infection of nails. An estimated 35 million Americans have it, and you can understand why -- despite having spent more than $350 million in 2010 alone trying to get rid of it -- they don't much like discussing it: Toenails turn embarrassingly yellow and crumbly from fungi that squeeze under them and then hide out.
And, oh, yes, for reasons not clearly understood, the fungi dig in even deeper as we age.
"Feet are the most neglected body part until there is a problem," says Dr. Krista Archer, a Manhattan foot specialist and podiatric surgeon.
Those Most At-Risk
While some people are genetically prone to onychomycosis, others -- including swimmers and athletes -- unintentionally leave themselves open to it because of certain behavioral patterns.
Maybe they go barefoot in public areas. Or maybe their feet are often damp -- just the environment, experts say, that fungi thrive in.
Treatment Options
As a recent article in Podiatry Management makes clear, there are a few drugs that tackle the problem. However, their use "must be balanced against the risk of unpleasant side effects that include gastrointestinal disorders, headaches and minor skin rashes." There are also new topical treatments available.

Love Love this sweater...dress it up dress it down and its just comfortable. December 9, 2013
Little short for a tunic I think this is a little on the shorter side for a tunic or maybe I need to go up one size to make it bigger. It is tighter fitting compared to the picture. Overall, a nice basic top to have. It's very lightweight, I would hardly call it a sweater! November 30, 2013
Great! It has a slightly large fit. Can dress it down with leggings and uggs or dress it up with jeans and boots. It's a bit sheer, so I always wear a cami underneath. Great purchase! November 10, 2013

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Rockets have reached agreement with Omer Asik on a three-year, $25.1 million contract, league source tells Y! Sports.
Horrible contract for Asik. He is nothing more than a backup, and they significantly overpaid. The desperation is tangible.
Rockets are just gasping at straws at this point. Tyler Zeller would've been better than Asik
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
As a restricted free agent, the Bulls will have three days to match Asik offer sheet after it's signed on July 11th.
Osik can start in this league and he fills a need for them. He will give them defense and rebounding, but zero offense and is a terrible FT shooter. Still, they're paying him to be a starter instead of a backup so its not that bad of a deal.

FAYETTEVILLE — Ben Daniels was an assistant the last time Bunn's girls basketball team faced Kinston in the regionals.
When they meet on Friday he'll be the one calling the shots.
The fourth-seeded Wildcats will take on the No. 3 Vikings at 7 p.m. Friday in a 2A Eastern Regional semifinal game at the Crown Arena in Fayetteville.
The matchup will make consecutive years the two teams have met with a berth in the regional championship on the line.
The two also met in December in Bunn's own post-Christmas tournament.
"When you play two games against each other in the last calendar year you have a pretty good idea of what's on the other side," Daniels said during Monday's regional press conference.
"I know what his players are capable of and he probably knows what mine are as well."
A year ago Kinston (24-4) knocked Bunn (23-6) from the tournament when graduated center Tisha Dixon's shot at the buzzer fell through, and the shot has fueled the Wildcats this year.
Entering Friday's contest they have won 20 straight games and 22 of their last 23, including a 55-49 win over the Vikings on Dec. 27.
All those wins came after Bunn began the season a tumultuous 1-5, albeit all five losses came to either a 3A or 4A school.
Daniels feels the early growing pains are paying off.
The Wildcats, led by senior guard Whitney Bunn at 15.1 points per game, have yet to lose to a 2A team this season.
"We played a bunch of really good teams to try and get us ready for when we see tough competition towards the end of the year. … I think that's helped us," he said.
"I guess it's a testament to my girls that they kept playing."

Cancer has shown me
What real life can be
Life has more meaning now
That my heart and soul are free
I can live my life now
As if each day could be my last
I take each moment as it comes
I don't think about the past
Please don't feel sorry for me
I'm happier than I was
Life is just much different now
Since I've taken time to pause
Cancer will not beat me
I won't let it have its way
If when I wake each morning
I am thankful for the day.

Track and field athletes to watch
File photo
Arlington's Dan Boyden throws his third of three attempts in the 4A boys discus finals during the 2A, 3A, 4A State Track and Field Championships, Friday, May 25, 2012 at Mount Tahoma High School in Tacoma.
File photo
Ryan McArthur, of Lynnwood High School, competes in the men's 800 meter race at the Larry Eason Invitational Event on Saturday at Snohomish High School.
File photo
Lakewood's Justin Peterson takes the second leap of his third of three triple jump attempts in the 2A boys triple jump finals during the 2A, 3A, 4A State Track and Field Championships, Friday, May 25, 2012 at Mount Tahoma High School in Tacoma.
File photo
Brooke Kingma, of Jackson High School, crosses the finish line during the 1600 meter run at the Cascade, Jackson, and Everett High Schools' Track Meet Friday afternoon at Everett Memorial Stadium. Kingma placed first.
Justin Peterson, Sr.
Lakewood | Long, triple jumper
Peterson placed second in the high jump at the 2A state meet and is the returning state champion in the triple jump. The senior three-sport athlete will focus on those events again in 2013 and is once again one of the favorites. He will also run some of the relays for the Cougars this season.
Cougars co-head track coach Monica Rooney said Peterson is special because he is willing to put in the work on the track and in the weight room. She said he studies his events and is constantly looking for ways to improve his technique. Rooney added that the competition at state this year will be intense, but Peterson is working hard to be prepared and confident.
Carey Campbell, Sr.
Lake Stevens, Shot put/discus
Campbell placed third at state last year in the shot put and his throwing coach Josh Vail said said the senior has shown the ability over the course of his high-school career to break through with a big throw in the big meets. Page said he would not be disappointed if Campbell didn't win state, but it is definitely the biggest goal for the season.
Campbell has other goals for his final high-school year. He would like to figure out the discus and make it to state in both events. In addition to winning the state title in the shot put, he would like to break the school record of 62 feet, 1 inch.
One of Campbell's biggest challenges in the shot put will come from fellow Wesco thrower Dan Boyden from Arlington.
Dan Boyden, Sr.
Arlington, shot put/discus
Boyden will once again focus his efforts on the shot put and discus. Boyden placed fifth at the 4A state meet in both events last year. His coach Judd Hunter said Boyden places high expectations on himself and his hopes are to become a two-event state champion. Hunter said Boyden has all the tools to accomplish his lofty goal.
Hunter said Boyden is special because of his obvious talent, but also the work he is willing to put in studying his events. He watches film and studies technique consistently which should help the senior in his quest to improve on last year's state performance.
Christian Linder, Sr.
Snohomish, 200
Linder returns for his senior year after finishing sixth in the 200 at state a year ago. He set junior class records at Snohomish with a 10.91 in the 100 and 22.20 in the 200. Snohomish track coach Tuck Gionet said Linder is an "unassuming athlete, who does not yet realize how good he is."
Linder will run the 100 and 200 again in 2013 and hopes to avoid injuries that plagued him in both his freshman and sophomore seasons in order to get back to and be successful at the state meet.
"It has been a long time since we had someone of Christian's speed level at SHS," Gionet said.
Ryan McArthur, Sr.
Lynnwood, 800
McArthur has been a leader on the Royals track team since his freshman season. He has set freshman, sophomore and junior school records in the 800 and only the all-time school record of 1:52 still eludes him in his best event.
McArthur placed sixth in the 800 at the state meet in 2011 and fifth in 2012. He hopes to improve on those finishes this season and in doing so, set the school record. He has also been the anchor on the Royals' 4x400 relay team and helped them to a seventh place finish last year.
Brooke Kingma, So.
Jackson, long distance runner
Kingma, who also runs cross country and plays basketball for Jackson, was a big part of the Timberwolves' Wesco 4A championship last season. As a freshman Kingma won the 3,200, 1,600 and 800-meter running events at the league championship meet.
"Last year our girls team won the Wesco title and 99 percent of our points came from distance runners," said Jackson girls track and field coach Steve Till.
Till said that Kingma just enjoys running long distances.
"The thing with Brooke is she's very focused. Running is her favorite thing," Till said. "…It's very common for the distance kids to enjoy running. It's a sense of accomplishment. Brooke enjoys running."
Kingma qualified for state in the mile last season, where she placed sixth. Till said he imagines the sophomore is eager to return to the state tournament and thinks she has the ability to get there, in more than one event.
"She set two school records last year as a freshman in the mile and two mile. She's very talented," Till said. "And she's fun to have around. Very pleasant. Smiles frequently. It's great to have her out."
Jessica Ludwig, So.
Arlington, long and triple jump
Ludwig started doing the triple jump event about midway through her freshman season. By the end of the year Ludwig was competing in the event, as well as the long jump, at the state tournament, surprising many, including Arlington track and field coach Judd Hunter.
"I knew she was pretty talented, but I don't know if I really expected her to go to state," Hunter said. "She started triple jump halfway through her freshman year just to try it. She ended up being a natural at it."
This season Hunter expects Ludwig, who he said worked and improved in the offseason, to get back to the state tournament and place in both events. He also said the sophomore may even pull another surprise and add another event to her arsenal.
"I really think she's going to place in the triple jump at state," Hunter said. "I also think she could be right up there in the long jump. She's still got some speed development to do in hurdles, but she could easily be a state competitor in hurdles too."
Samantha McGee, Jr.
Lake Stevens, 110 hurdles, high jump
As a sophomore, McGee got to state in the high jump and hurdle events. McGee, starting her third season of track and field, has continued to impress Lake Stevens head coach Jeff Page since joining the team as a freshman.
"I think she's more focused and more driven," Page said. "I think she saw what she could do and how much more she needs to improve to get there. She saw that it wasn't that much more. She's been working really hard. You can just tell she's substantially stronger than she was a year ago."
Page envisions another giant step forward for McGee this season and while he's careful not to put too much pressure on the young Viking, he believes she could leave quite a legacy at Lake Stevens.
"I don't want to put a lot of pressure on her but I think she's going to do some pretty good things," Page said. "I told her the other day that we've had some pretty good high jumpers in the past…. But I can look at Sam and I can see her going those (state championship) heights. She just has this fluidity that goes along with the explosion that she's got. I think she can do some pretty remarkable things."
Kacey Kemper, Jr.
King's, 800
Kemper, now a junior, is what King's track and field coach Daunte Gouge considers battle tested. Last season Kemper finished sixth at the 2A state tournament in the 800 and 1,600 in what Gouge said was a stacked field.
"It's a really strong field," Gouge said. "… We knew that she could place in the top eight. We weren't sure where so finished sixth was a really good weekend for her. She was a busy gal."
This year the King's coach expects her to get back, but acknowledges that once again Kemper will face stiff competition, possibly as early as the tri-district meet.
"She is one of those ones we're definitely planning on her going back to state and hopefully moving up," Gouge said. "There are a couple studs in the tri-districts. She's going to have her work cut out for her just in the tri-district meet alone."
Gouge says Kemper is "one heck of a worker" who sets a great example for her teammates.
"I just wish we had more of her," Gouge said. "When you have those kids, not just from the talent side, but that leadership. You have a kid that does it the right way. She's a stellar student, she's just a great kid and a great leader for our team."

|Erie BayHawks coach Jay Larranaga speaks to the media at a recent news conference at the LECOM Medical Fitness and Wellness Center.
New Erie BayHawks coach Jay Larranaga met with members of the local media Monday at the LECOM John M. & Silvia Ferretti Medical Fitness & Wellness Center. It was a chance for local sports reporters to interview Coach Larranaga one-on-one and learn about his plans for the BayHawks team, which begins training camp at the LECOM Wellness Center next month.
Larranaga, who spent 12 years playing professional basketball in Europe, most recently worked as an assistant coach at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. He takes over the coaching reins from John Treloar, who is now Director of Player Personnel for the Phoenix Suns.
|New Erie BayHawks coach Jay Larranaga poses for a group photo with LECOM doctors and team officials at the LECOM Wellness Center. Pictured in photo (L-R) are Michael Hyek, PhD, Wellness Center Director, Gregory Coppola, DO, LECOM Sports Medicine specialist, Ben McDonald, Assistant BayHawks Coach, Patrick Leary, DO, head team physician, Larranaga, Steve Demetriou, majority team owner, Owen McCormick, lead local investor, David Griffin, VP of Basketball Operations, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Matt Bresee, BayHawks President.
Coach Larranaga was joined by his assistant coach Ben McDonald, BayHawks President Matt Bresee, majority owner Steve Demetriou, lead local investor Owen McCormick, and David Griffin, Vice President of Basketball Operations for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The team officials said they were impressed with the LECOM Wellness Center and look forward to holding training camp at the facility. In addition to meeting with the Erie media, Larranaga also had the opportunity to talk to some of the LECOM doctors who will serve as team physicians.
The BayHawks will have training camp workouts and regular practices at the Wellness Center throughout the season. Team practices are open to all LECOM Wellness Center members and LECOM students. BayHawks President Matt Bresee said the Wellness Center is a perfect place for the team to practice. "The state-of-the-art facilities and amenities rival what many NBA teams have and it's exactly the type of environment we want our players in," Bresee said.
LECOM is the major team sponsor of the Erie BayHawks. The BayHawks are the NBA Development League affiliate of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Toronto Raptors. The BayHawks kick off the 2010-2011 season at home on November 19th.
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and LECOM School of Pharmacy offer innovative and affordable education in osteopathic medicine and pharmacy. From campuses in Erie, Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Bradenton, Florida, LECOM provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals.

What Kind of Business Do You Own? I've always wanted to own a restaurant and a clothing line, but I'm stuck running my computer business right now. It's hopefully going to pay for my restaurant and clothing line.
What Kind of Business Do You Own? I've always wanted to own a restaurant and a clothing line, but I'm stuck running my computer business right now. It's hopefully going to pay for my restaurant and clothing line.
I'm doing restaurant, it is not as good as you think. The overhead is high and many thing need to be done.
I am doing online business at present and planing to run a supermarket.
I also hope to own a farm that has fruit bearing tress on it which can be harvested every 6months or so.
I have own business of Industrial equipment manufacturer.
Now I don't own any business but I would like to have my own cafe or bar or a restaurant.
I don't currently own a business but I am planning on making a computer software business.
I don't own any business currently on my name (underage) but I've been managing several business which includes a Job Portal and a local shopping portal. Though, I've always wished to start up a manufacturing industry as the profit earned in those industry are high.
I own an Internet marketing company as well as a record label. Spend a lot more time on Internet marketing than music at the moment, though.
A record label? Wow, that would be a cool job/business to have. Don't you think that was a bad move though? A lot of the newer labels are going down due to the fact that people can get the same quality of sound through the internet.
Of course, it helps that I also own an Internet marketing agency that's capable of promoting our artists the right way...
I currently have a home based music production company at the minute for friends and people around my area. I am still currently at school (16 years old) but I have already got the general basic's for my business to succeed in a thriving environment.
I want to have a business but in nanotechnologies. Reason: fast expanding field of technology, all computers, microchips etc. become smaller and smaller. I think in 10-20 years nanotechnologies will own the market, enginnering, medicine etc. So it's not only interesting but profitable too. Any tips for start?
Ah from Houston, TX huh? I lived in Texas for over 20 years. Great state.
Nanotechnology, software and Internet technology are going to dominate
the future. I don't know too much about the nanotechnology industry but I
have no doubt that there's money in it. Wouldn't know how to get started
in that business though.
I own a small country store and small restaurant. Most of our products are are from local farms and producers.
Owning a restaurant is a lot of work. You might want to check out the national restaurant association web site for a lot of good information. http://www.restaurant.org/research/

The reunion occurs each Monday: Longtime aviators meet for lunch at the Airport Diner, with its picture window overlooking the airfield.
Sometimes up to 20 show up, sitting at tables end-to-end along a diner wall – wives on the right, husbands on the left.
"This is our table. ... It's got our name on it," quipped Bernie Lee, 82, of La Palma, who learned to fly here and has had a pilot's license since 1974.
The view of the Fullerton Airport runway, 50 yards away, is unobstructed, giving diners a glimpse of every takeoff.
These fliers can give the specs of every plane they see. They kibitz, cajole and reminisce. They talk politics and solve the world's problems.
Mostly, this gang of old pilots – largely in their 80s – talks about the thing they all have in common: a passion for flying.
They do all this at Orange County's only airfield, other than the more-worldly John Wayne Airport, a throwback to simpler times.
"It's my therapy," Lee said. "You don't think or worry about anything else when you are up there."
One diner regular is Sam Autry, 84, of Fullerton. His reason for flying is a no-brainer:
"We want to see the world, and an airplane gives you that freedom," said Autry, who has flown to Alaska four times, the Grand Cayman Islands, Central America and throughout the western United States. "My wife probably has 2,000 hours just flying in the right seat."
One of Bill Gosland's greatest adventures involved flying the perimeter of North America, including flyovers above Manhattan and Niagara Falls.
"When I was a kid, the first thing I wanted to do was drive and then fly," said Gosland, 81, of Brea. "I guess I've got aviation fluid in my system."
These days, Gosland climbs into his 1946, 65-horsepower, single-engine Aeronca Champion that cruises at 85 mph.
The men's tales offer a glimpse into a world that land-bound folks never see.
Gosland flew search and rescue missions – looking for downed planes – for the Civil Air Patrol for more than 30 years.
"So many (missions), I lost track," said Gosland, who has had a plane at the Fullerton Airport since 1969. "It was difficult at times because you are dealing with people who have lost somebody, and emotions are high."
About a half-dozen of the gang served as armed reserve deputies for the Orange County Sheriff's Department's Aero Squadron, transporting inmates in their planes from county jail to prisons up north and vice versa.
"We stood guard with a gun while the exchange was going on," said Autry, who also was among a squadron of 20 planes that once flew medical personnel to Mexico to minister to the poor.
After the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Dick Fields, 75, of Fullerton oversaw an operation based out of the Fullerton Airport that involved photographing parts of the county that could be potential terrorist targets.
These guys acknowledge that piloting a two- or four-seater isn't for everybody – in part because of rising costs.
According to the Fun Outside Aviation Academy at the airport, the average student can earn a private pilot's certificate in five months after paying $6,000 to $10,000 for lessons. The website aerotrader.com advertises used, single-engine propeller planes for sale in California for $25,000 to $150,000.

No human can answer the nagging questions that have haunted the human mind since the sense of self emerged.
"Who am I?"
"Does my life have a purpose?"
"What happens when I die?"
In these matters, no one knows, or can know, anything.
There are no enlightened persons.
There are only human brains that have apperceived the
essential emptiness of their own accumulated knowledge.
Some brains it seems are wired to see through the consensus conceptual overlay and
spend their short time in manifestation gazing out at an ever emerging mystery with baby eyes.
They have become awareness itself.
They wander through their own dream…........amazed.

Kate Major was deposed Wednesday in TLC's lawsuit against Jon Gosselin and her testimony against the former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star was explosive. Jon planned to endorse a line of motorcycles as well as kids' clothes and furniture, Major told RadarOnline.com exclusively
EXCLUSIVE: Michael Lohan Reveals His Business Deals With Gosselin
"I was supposed to be his assistant as well as work with him on a book and other endorsements such as a motorcycle line and a kids clothing line, and kids' stackable furniture," Kate told us she revealed to the TLC attorneys.
PHOTOS: Jon & Kate Ride With The American Chopper Stars
Major told RadarOnline.com that Gosselin never mentioned to her how his TLC contract was going to fit into all this. "His contract with TLC never came up," Major said. "It didn't seem to concern him."
The attorneys for TLC from the top law firm of Williams & Connolly asked Kate about Jon's plans to employ her. "He promised he would, or else I wouldn't have resigned from my job," Kate added.
Jon & Kate Major Spent The Night At Michael Lohan's House
Major also revealed that Jon told her to resign from her job at Star magazine and work for him at a salary that would be more than she'd been making.
EXCLUSIVE: Kate Major's Contract With Jon Gosselin
Kate said the TLC attorneys also asked about her personal relationship with Jon. "My lawyer intervened so I didn't have to answer any of that," she said.

Please follow the instructions on the groovy github page: https://github.com/groovy/groovy-core#building
2 Comments
I experienced the following build failure concerning ant (version 1.7.0 compiled on September 23 2007) and ANTLR on Mac OS Leopard (10.5):
BUILD FAILED /Users/jon_r/Documents/Projects/groovy-core/build.xml:65: Problem: failed to create task or type antlr Cause: the class org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.ANTLR was not found. This looks like one of Ant's optional components. Action: Check that the appropriate optional JAR exists in -/usr/share/ant/lib -/Users/jon_r/.ant/lib -a directory added on the command line with the -lib argument Do not panic, this is a common problem. The commonest cause is a missing JAR. This is not a bug; it is a configuration problem
This problem can be solved quickly by following these steps:
- Determine which version of ant is running on your system
- Download that version and untar the archive
- Locate ant-antlr.jar in the lib directory
- Copy the jar into either (as described in the above error message)
- /usr/share/ant/lib
- /Users/you/.ant/lib
- A directory added on the command line with the -lib argument
After taking these steps your build should not fail with this error again. I hope someone else finds this information useful.
This page states that Ant >= 1.7.0 is required.
The build.xml only states
What's correct? We should sync this.
