NEWBERRY — The Newberry County Sheriff's Office warns residents about unusually cold temperatures to fall this week, specifically Tuesday and Wednesday.
"On Tuesday lows will be in the mid-teens and the high will reach just above freezing. Wednesday will see a warming trend with lows in the higher teens and highs being in the 40s," according to the sheriff's office.
Any residual water on surfaces will freeze. Care should be taken to insure pets are well insulated from the cold as well as vulnerable plants. Uninsulated pipes should be covered or allow water to drip to prevent freezing and bursting.
Only use approved heating devices indoors and insure those are away from flammable materials.

I think clothes look great on animals. Unless the animal doesn't like it and if they try to hurt themselves.
Pros: I think it would be great for a pitt bull dog
Cons: It would look bad on a cat

GUELPH — There's no way of telling when Terry Tremble's DNA came into contact with the shirt and pyjama bottoms of murder victim Adrienne Roberts, a Guelph Superior Court jury heard Thursday.
"It could have been deposited in different time frames," Centre of Forensic Sciences biologist Kelly-Jo Walden said of Tremble's DNA, as she testified before a six-woman, eight-man jury guided by Justice Jack Belleghem.
"We're not able to time when the DNA was deposited," the genetics expert said on the ninth day of the first-degree murder trial of Tremble.
Testimony indicated Tremble's DNA was on both the shirt and pyjama bottoms, which were stained with Roberts's blood. No Tremble blood was present, though Walden said his DNA presence could relate to another bodily fluid, such as saliva.
The body of the Guelph-Wellington paramedic, 33, was found on the evening of Oct. 6, 2010 in a blood-spattered basement bedroom of the home she shared in Arthur with Tremble, 52, who owned and operated a Hanover-area dog-breeding farm.
Witness testimony since the trial began indicated the blood that police investigators found in the Schmidt Drive residence was exclusively Roberts's, except for two small drops attributed to Tremble on the narrow inside window frame of the main-level front door.
On Thursday, under cross-examination by defence lawyer Brennan Smart, Walden said it was unknown when Tremble's blood landed on the door.
It might have been there since the last cleaning of the entranceway, she surmised, not offering comment on when that might have been.
"It could potentially remain there for a very long time," Walden said. "If it was wiped down, I would not expect the blood stain to remain."
Though the house appeared cluttered and messy to earlier witnesses, they noted Roberts was seeking a divorce and moving with an infant son to her parents' home in Guelph just before she died, after telling friends, family and work colleagues in past months her 2009 marriage to Tremble was falling apart.
In other testimony Thursday, William Bucholtz said he spoke to Tremble, a friend, the day before Roberts's body was found. Tremble, he said, spoke of financial and personal challenges between himself and his wife.
Assistant Crown prosecutor Murray de Vos asked if these challenges bothered Tremble.
"I believe so, yes," Bucholtz responded.
Tremble also told him he was living in a main-floor bedroom at the Arthur home, while Roberts slept downstairs in another bedroom with the couple's eight-month-old son.
"He wasn't happy," Bucholtz said of his friend.
Further, Tremble was troubled Roberts didn't allow much contact with the boy.
A typically cheerful man, Tremble was "sad, upset" by the situation, Bucholtz said.
"Did his emotional state concern you?" de Vos asked.
"Yes," Bucholtz said.
The trial resumes at 11 a.m. on Friday, an hour delayed in anticipation of increased witness driving time because of an expected snowstorm.

"Trapped Bubble"
Reviewed by Anna Grace / Dec 12, 2012
Let Bob the bubble exit the maze and avoid all the obstacles
Bubblaze is a casual arcade game where you need to help Bob escape an underwater labyrinth and avoid the obstacles that appear on the way.
Although it might seem easy enough, the gameplay is actually quite challenging as you need to tilt the phone in order to guide Bob through the maze and take the obstacles into account at the same time. Also, as you advance through the levels, new features and elements keep appearing, some of which will hinder your game. The app includes 20 levels to play, growing in difficulty.
The design is not really spectacular, they graphics are fairly simple and we would appreciate if they were more clean and aesthetic, creating a better experience for the game. TotMob is the developer of Bubblaze, a fun puzzle application with a particularly challenging gameplay but improvable graphics.Developer's original description available here
Bubblaze is a maze game where you have to navigate labirynths that get ever more complex while avoiding various dangerous obstacles. There are 20 levels that range from easy to very challenging, that will provide you with many hours worth of entertainment.
Visual treatment:
Everything in the games is underwater/bubble themed. The menu options are in the shape of bubbles, that pop in a satisfying way when clicked. Bob the bubble has a happy little face, and changes expression in an amusing way when he bumps into obstacles and edges in the mazes. If you happen to pop him, he dissapears in a flush of bubbles that`s not overdramatic. The maze has a transparent glassy high gloss feel that`s very pleasant and high tech.
Sound effects:
The game has a soundscape that is underwater themed. The sounds range from bubbles to more unusual pops and echos. To complement this soundscape, we composed a theme tune that`s a perfect fit. It has an understated melody with quirky sounds that adds to the overall experience.
Initially the gameplay is simple enough. Bob the Bubble enters the maze, and you have to navigate him all the way to the exit. A little maze map at the bottom right of the screen helps you see where you need to go, though it`s not always obvious. As you move beyond the initial maze levels, obstacles start showing up, that will make things dangerous for Bob. Large spikes can pop him, directional barbs will only let him pass in one direction, you'll need to get the timing right to get through some doors, in other cases you need to activate the door to open it. Finally there are the bottlenecks, that need to be passed at speed, and for this you need to activate the turbines that will push you through.

(23 Jan. 2011) --- Durrat Al Bahrain, Bahrain, is featured in this image photographed by an Expedition 26 crew member on the International Space Station. Set at the southern end of Bahrain Island, at the furthest point from the cities of the kingdom, is a new complex of 14 artificial islands designed for residential living and tourism with luxury hotels and shopping malls. Aimed at a cosmopolitan clientele, the Durrat Al Bahrain includes 21 square kilometers of new surface area—for more than 1,000 residences—that has been designed as The Islands (six "atolls" leading off five fish-shaped "petals"), The Crescent, Hotel Island in the center of the complex, and Durrat Marina in the north. The spectacular outline of this development, and others such as the Palm Jumeirah and World Islands developments in the Persian Gulf, are best appreciated from above. Views from jet liners at high altitude—and orbital platforms such as the International Space Station—are the only ways to fully appreciate these sights. This detailed photograph shows that construction on the southern two atolls and petals has yet to begin. Artificial beaches have been created on the inner shorelines of the Crescent and petals, with smaller beaches on the inner ends of the atolls and Hotel Island. The angular outline of the golf course, where many more residences are planned to line the fairways, can be seen between The Crescent and the marina. What may be a second marina at the south end of the complex mirrors the one on the north, appears to be part of the complex, but it does not figure in some earlier plans for the Durrat Al Bahrain.

The growth of John Wall can be seen in how he is defending, which is an area coach Randy Wittman has pushed him to be more assertive. Wall did that and then some in Friday's win vs. the Chicago Bulls, when he blew up an inbounds play between Jimmy Butler and Mike Dunleavy because he'd seen it before.
Butler got the ball to Dunleavy, who was able to use a screen to get free from Trevor Ariza. The spacing, however, wasn't the best and Wall who was responsible for Butler, shaded towards Dunleavy on the catch which forced him to give up the ball. Then Wall peeled back to his man, Butler, in the corner. Ariza recovered to his man in Dunleavy.
The play broke down for Chicago as Nene ended up on Butler in a switch and blocked his shot at the buzzer for the 96-93 victory. It was their third in a row.
"I remember the play the other day when Mike Dunleavy got the same kind of shot," said Wall, alluding to the Bulls' 128-125 win at the Orlando Magic. "He hit a wide-open three against Orlando so I knew the inbounds (defending) guy was the only guy who could help in that situation."
That guy meant Wall himself. "I just wanted to stunt and get back to Jimmy Butler and then we just switched everything," he said.
Confirmed Dunleavy: "I got open, but unfortunately ... the inbounder's guy (Wall) jumped to me and I didn't have a shot so I passed it to Jimmy, and unfortunately we weren't able to get a good enough shot."

G20 to tackle US-China currency concerns
Leaders of the G20 group of major economies have agreed to avoid "competitive devaluation" of currencies after talks concluded in the South Korean capital, Seoul.
Leaders agreed to come up with "indicative guidelines" to tackle trade imbalances affecting world growth.
Tensions had been high between some delegations over how to correct distortions in currency and trade.
But the agreement fell short of a US push to limit trade deficits.
Some fear the conflict, chiefly between China and the US, may threaten global growth.
US President Barack Obama said there should be no controversy about fixing imbalances "that helped to contribute to the crisis that we just went through".
"Exchange rates must reflect economic realities," he said.
"Emerging economies need to allow for currencies that are market-driven. This is something that I raised with President Hu of China and we will closely watch the appreciation of China's currency."'Slowly, slowly'
Some of what the G20 agreed had already been done by their finance ministers - the commitment to refrain from competitive devaluations, for example. The summit did not manage to harden that up, as had been suggested, with a promise to avoid competitive undervaluation. That would have put more pressure on.
On the related issue of global imbalances, which is partly about international trade, they agreed to develop indicators to show when imbalances need to be reduced. That work is due next year.
It is progress but slow, rather like China's commitment to move to a market-based exchange rate. They say they will do it, but in their own time, in other words not tomorrow. So there was no breakthrough in these key areas, but the very public endorsement of political leaders perhaps gives a little more weight to such commitments as they have made.
Washington says that China's currency, the yuan, is artificially weak and gives Chinese exporters an unfair advantage as well as leading to Beijing amassing huge foreign reserves.
However, Chinese officials argue that Beijing has an "unswerving" commitment to reform its currency regime, but that global economic stability is needed to achieve it.
UK Prime Minister David Cameron said progress was being made on the issue of imbalances.
"Slowly, slowly China is moving into a position of actually increasing domestic consumption, rebalancing its economy," he said.
However, the agreement to develop new guidelines to prevent so-called "currency wars" fell well short of the 4% limit on national trade deficits and surpluses proposed by the US, which had been blocked by China and Germany - the world's two largest exporters.
"This was never going to be solved overnight," Mr Cameron added.
And South Korea President Lee Myung-Bak admitted that "on the foreign exchange rate issue, principles were agreed at the finance ministers' meeting, but there was no word on when and up to how much we will implement them".'Fractious' negotiations
The G20 leaders also gave their backing to reforms designed to give emerging economies such as China a bigger say in the International Monetary Fund.
In their communique, leaders said they were delivering "a modernised IMF that better reflects the changes in the world economy through greater representation of dynamic emerging markets and developing countries".
UK sources say that officials from the UK, France and Russia had to be called in the early hours of this morning after "fractious" negotiations between China and the US broke down in "acrimony".
But at the end of the summit, the European Union said in a statement that it was "satisfied" with the outcome.
The G20 also committed itself to completing soon the long-running Doha Development Round of global trade talks, saying that 2011 presented a "critical window of opportunity, albeit narrow" to conclude the discussions.
And it signed the Seoul Development Consensus for Shared Growth, committing it to work in partnership with other developing countries on trade, development and investment.Irish debts
What is the G20?
The G20 group comprises the world's 19 leading national economies, plus the European Union. It was formed in 1999, and held its first meeting that year.
Until 2008 the G20 was overshadowed by the smaller G8 grouping of France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK, the US, Canada and Russia.
However, this has changed since the global financial crisis of 2008, and the G20 has effectively now replaced the G8 as the main global economic forum.
The major growth in the economies of G20 members China, India and Brazil has also contributed to the rising importance of the grouping.
The G20 currently meets twice a year, but this is set to reduce to one meeting from 2011.
Meanwhile, the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain issued a joint declaration to try to calm bond market jitters over a possible future EU bail-out fund.
As Irish bond yields reached a fresh high, leaders discussed the Irish Republic's debt crisis amid concerns that the European Union will have to step in.
"Any new [bail-out] mechanism would only come into effect after mid-2013 with no impact whatsoever on the current arrangements," finance ministers from the five countries said in the declaration.
The statement seemed to have an impact on the bond market, with Irish bond yields dropping to 8.2%, down from the record high of 8.95% reached on Thursday.
But world stock markets fell in Friday trading as investors worried about Irish government debt, as well as possible measures in China to tackle inflation.

Improving Access to Healthcare: Models of Adaptive Behavior

Patient access to healthcare is a major problem area due to inadequate supplies and misallocation of resources including physicians, nurses, and hospital beds. Increasing patient demands due to an aging and more chronically ill population will exacerbate this situation, leading to longer delays for care, hurried treatment times, and adverse clinical outcomes. Though there is a significant operations literature focused on methods to mitigate these effects, suggested remedies may be ineffective due to adaptive behavior by both physicians and patients. This chapter will focus on the quantification and impact of such adaptive behavior on the ability to provide timely patient access to limited health services.

Woman says she worked as prostitute for Mexican man
An alleged former prostitute said in court Wednesday that she hopes the man she once considered her husband is punished for bringing her into a life of prostitution in North County migrant camps.
On the second day of trial in a sex trafficking case, Anabel de la Cruz-Ramirez said she worked as a prostitute for Adrian Zitlalpopoca-Hernandez. She said she first met him at a park in Mexico four years ago, when she was 18 years old, and that she later worked for him in migrant camps while living in their Vista apartment.
"I want this to be over," she told a jury on Wednesday. "That person harms people a lot. He should be punished as he deserves."
In April, a federal grand jury indicted Zitlalpopoca on 11 counts related to sneaking two women into the country and using them as prostitutes, according to the U.S. attorney's office in San Diego.
Among the charges he faces is an accusation that he engaged in sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, which carries a minimum sentence of 15 years.
Defense attorneys said Zitlalpopoca suggested the women work as prostitutes but did not force them into it. The attorneys said that the women were poor and wanted to earn money to help their families.
De la Cruz said Zitlalpopoca beat her on two occasions and that she was afraid of him. But she remained with him because she loved him.
When she attempted to leave him while in Vista, he told her that he loved her, too, she said.
"I loved him and when he sent me the (telephone text) message, he said that he loved me and that convinced me not to leave," de la Cruz said.
De la Cruz said she met Zitlalpopoca while she was a young college student in Mexico.
He persuaded her to leave her home and go with him on a journey that eventually would take her to the streets of Tijuana, where she worked as a prostitute, and later to North County, where they were both arrested last year.
The were detained on Nov. 20, 2008, when sheriff's deputies stopped the vehicle they were in in a rural area of Valley Center known as Couser Canyon, a place police say is often used by sex traffickers to set up prostitution camps.
In the car, police found condoms, birth control pills, lubricants, toilet paper, plastic tarps and plastic bags. Shortly afterward, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrived and determined that the couple and another woman in the car were in the country illegally.
As she looked through the evidence in court, de la Cruz said on Wednesday that the items were things that she and another woman, Florencia Calixto-Velazco, used as prostitutes working for Zitlalpopoca.
Defense attorneys said that there was violence in the relationship between Zitlalpopoca and de la Cruz but it was not related to the prostitution.
On one occasion, de la Cruz said she confronted Zitlalpopoca because she found condoms in his wallet.

Should I take some mini ITX moterboard and later on add a SATA controller? What would be the best OS to handle my requirements?

I'm not sure I understood you correctly... If it has dual core Atom, it can't have 1155 socket at the same time. So there is no point in going ITX and putting in standard 1155 because I'd still have same power consumption but less SATA ports, I guess. However, would you recommend any specific ITX board?

Other than the HDD's and the case (only real expenses), it's surprising what you can get away with on something that was originally going for scrap. For what you need, you might consider recycling what may already be available for a lot less money

Time flies when you're having fun. I can't believe my baby would be going into high school this year (if she went to school). Recently I started to feel the pressure of teaching a high school student. Will I enable her to learn everything she needs to know? Will I prepare her for college? How will she do on entrance exams? Am I worrying to much? Not enough?
Does anyone have any words of wisdom for teaching chemistry, algebra 2 or geometry? She wants to be a nurse some day so I know she needs to have at least a basic understanding of these things.... SOS! :)
I guess it depends: what have you been using for math so far and how has she done with it? Life of Fred is awesome but not traditional.
And for science, I understand that Apologia is SIGNIFICANTLY less in-your-face religious at the high school level and actually top notch for content and experience. I've been trying to use them at the elementary level and it's been a challenge. But I haven't actually seen the upper levels--I'm going on what people have said (you can search this forum--I get a lot of feedback on it here). Otherwise I'm at a loss for high school stuff.
Hope this helps! And CONGRATS!

The wait is finally over for Texans, their fans
Houston clinches AFC South title as rookie QB leads game-winning drive in final seconds
CADILLAC, Mich. - Another fitting title for this column would've been "One heart attack at a time", because I felt like I was stacking them on top of each other on Sunday.
By all accounts, the Texans could've lost in Cincinnati on Sunday and still would've wrapped up the AFC South at some point. But to do that would be to suck the magic out of a ride that started with a 41-7 thrashing of Tennessee on October 23rd and has continued on 6 victories later in spite of the loss of Matt Schaub, Matt Leinart, Andre Johnson, and previous injuries to Mario Williams, Arian Foster and a slew of others.
On Sunday afternoon, faced with a 16-3 deficit at the half, on the road against a playoff-caliber Bengals team, the Texans began the long road back quickly, with Connor Barwin stripping Bengals QB Andy Dalton on the opening drive, allowing Brooks Reed to recover deep in Cincy territory. The Texans would score on a T.J. Yates touchdown pass to Joel Dreessen, pushing Houston to within 6. After a Bengals field goal that made the score 19-10, the Texans would put in a field goal with 5:31 left to close within 6 again. The heart attacks began soon after.
One of my closest friends, Gordo, is a die-hard Bengals fan, so this game had great meaning for him as well. If the Bengals win, they continue to control their own destiny as the sixth seed with a cake schedule remaining. If they lose and the Jets win (and against KC, there was no doubt they would), they would need lots of help and a minor miracle to make it. Again, the Texans – mathematically – didn't need this one. But in a much more profound way, we did.
After all the heartache, all the Peyton Manning comebacks, all the human helicopter displays (OK, just one – but still. It doubled as a Peyton comeback), all the seasons of promise left in shambles, all the cries for heads to roll and all the empty, "moral" victories, the Texans needed to wrap this thing up as quickly as possible. For a city, and a legion of fans, that have known no comfort in the safety of a two-score lead or a moment in first place since well before my generation even knew what the internet was, this wasn't about simply winning a division title. It was about throwing a 19 year old demon from our shoulders.
He's raw, sometimes sloppy and understandably mistake prone, but rookie QB T.J. Yates has stepped in at what seemed like the worst possible time and helped engineer two of the most profound victories in Texans history. On that final 13-play drive that went 80 yards in 2:31, Yates didn't manage anything. He won the game with his feet, his arm and his will (that 17 yard run on 3rd and 15 is quite possibly the greatest first down in Texans history up to now). He was smooth, decisive and deliberate in every motion.
So much for rookie jitters. It speaks to the makeup of this kid that he could walk into games against Atlanta and Cincinnati, two heavy playoff contenders desperate to pick off the ailing Texans, and come away with two dynamic wins. But his success also speaks volumes for Gary Kubiak and his coaching staff and how they spent countless hours and sleepless nights preparing to go to battle with a guy who had never known 1/10th the pressure he was about to endure.
With Matt Schaub, Andre Johnson and Mario Williams – perhaps the Texans' three best players – sitting in street clothes on the sidelines, the Texans went out and won again for their seventh consecutive game. There's something bittersweet about that. When I envisioned that clinching moment in my head, I saw Andre Johnson falling to his knees on the field, removing his helmet and soaking in that long-elusive moment. I saw Matt Schaub sharing a long embrace with him, much like Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler after the Rockets swept the Orlando Magic for the NBA title in 1995. I saw Mario Williams basking in the glory of a long season that saw him successfully transition from defensive end to linebacker culminating in a division title. Those were my visions and they were easy to expect.
But in a strange way, this is better. Winning it like this proves that the Texans didn't simply cake walk through the season, it removes the stigma of, "well, Peyton wasn't there, and the schedule was lax, and blah, blah, blah." This team won despite losing their cornerstone players – the guys you put on posters. That speaks to something deeper than talent, and something deeper than chemistry. Some call it 'destiny'; I call it 'attitude'. The Texans walk and talk like a winner, they have swagger and confidence that seems only to be matched by those cheese eaters in Green Bay. I'm not saying, by any stretch, that the Texans are on par with the Packers, because that team is working on a whole other plane, but when it comes to heart – let's just say I'd like to see the Packers walk that walk with Aaron Rodgers in a Packers snuggie on the sideline.
This season has been the complete antithesis of the nine before it. Gary Kubiak is a serious Coach of the Year candidate, Houston's defense is standing near the top of the NFL in everything, injuries have only strengthened their resolve and the wins keep rolling in like this team couldn't buy a loss. Now, the city of Houston is on fire. It took until lucky year number 10, but the Texans are a playoff team and yes, we should all celebrate that.
There have been seasons where I could copy and paste the previous week's game write-up onto the next one because the losses all somehow looked and felt the same. It was a pitiful, seemingly never-ending twilight zone. Now, as Texans fans sit around today with shirts and hats adorning both the Texans logo and the word "champions" on them, it seems like those previous nine seasons were no big deal. They've all just melted away to the sounds of cheers and glory.
For now, this division title means we can all wear new Texans gear and call them division champs. But the reality of this event will really hit when the Texans host that first playoff game in January. Can you imagine what it'll be like? The noise alone will likely make standing next to a jet taking off seem like a quiet stroll.

She was thrilled!

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (Oct. 19, 2007) It was over almost before it started. In a stunning upset, T.J. Wilson captured the International Boxing Association (IBA) Continental Americas heavyweight title with an unpopular, controversial 15-second, first-round knockout over previously undefeated Travis Walker Friday in the main event on ShoBox: The New Generation.
The amazing run of streaking, vastly improved Jesus Chuy Rodriguez continued in the co-feature when he won his eighth in a row with a convincing, unanimous eight-round decision over previously unbeaten Omri Lowther in a good-action junior welterweight match.
The doubleheader, held outside at Raley Field, was promoted by Duva Boxing in association with Goossen Tutor Promotions. It aired on SHOWTIME at 11 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the west coast).
A mere seconds after the opening bell, Wilson backed Walker into a corner and began delivering punches with both hands. At least a couple connected solidly and seemed to stun Walker, who did not once attempt to retaliate, or even raise a glove. He did not land a punch.
Moments later, the referee, Raul Caiz Sr., stepped between the boxers and waved off the fight.
He dropped his hands. His shoulders dropped and he did not try to defend himself, said Caiz, a veteran referee and the third man in numerous world title fights across the years. I hated to do it. No one wants to see a fight end like that, especially so early on. But it is my job to protect the fighter.
Naturally, Wilson (12-1, 8 KOs), of Atlanta, agreed with the referees actions while Walker (25-1-1, 19 KOs), of Houston, Texas, by way of Tallahassee, Fla., thought it was, well, a travesty. He was ready to go, said Wilson, a six-foot-six inch, 282-pound southpaw who was two inches taller than Walker and outweighed him by 42 pounds. He just folded up in the corner. His head wobbled.
If the referee doesnt stop it, Walker is going down and getting knocked out anyway. I was not going to stop throwing punches.
Making his second start since July 2004 and first since March 24, 2007, Wilson said he would welcome a rematch but would prefer a shot at a top-10 contender.
I really want to thank SHOWTIME for this opportunity, he said. They gave me a chance to show what I could do. I said I was going to apply intense pressure and I did. You saw what happened.
Since I just beat the guy in 15 seconds, I would like to try and progress in my career and fight somebody in the top 10. But if the price is right, Id fight Walker again.
Walker, who was making his third appearance on SHOWTIME, vehemently protested the refs decision to halt the proceedings. The boxer still was in disbelief several minutes later.
You dont stop a fight, a championship fight, like that, an agitated Walker said. He caught me with a couple shots, but I was never hurt. It was only the first round, a feeling out round. We knew he was going to come out and shoot his wad. That was the only shot he had at winning.
This is unbelievable. I definitely want to fight Wilson again.
Rodriguez (17-2, 5 KOs), of Salinas, Calif., performed intelligently and stayed poised throughout en route to triumphing by the scores of 79-73 twice and 78-74. There were no knockdowns.
I am content with the win, but I am not entirely satisfied, he said. I pushed the fight but I think I could have been a lot busier. But it was great fighting on SHOWTIME and having the fans behind me like they were.
A third cousin to the legendary Sugar Ray Robinson, Lowther (9-1, 8 KOs), of Atlanta, Ga., had his stablemate, undefeated World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight champion Paul Williams, in his corner Friday. It didnt help.
I wont make any excuses, Lowther said. I knew what I was getting into when I took the fight. Fighting a guy in his hometown is not easy. My only complaint is that the referee warned Rodriguez for hitting behind the head something like six times but never took away a point.
Nick Charles (blow-by-blow) and Steve Farhood (analyst) called the action from ringside. The executive producer of ShoBox is Gordon Hall with Richard Gaughan producing and Rick Phillips directing.
Fridays bouts will re-air as follows:
Saturday, Oct. 20, at Midnight ET/PT SHOTOO
Monday, Oct. 22, at 10 p.m. ET/PT SHO EXTREME
Tuesday, Oct. 23, at Midnight ET/PT SHO EXTREME
Thursday, Oct. 25, at 11 p.m. ET/PT SHOTOO
Fridays telecast was the first of three consecutive ShoBox presentations that will feature promising heavyweight prospects.
The next ShoBox telecast on Friday, Nov. 2 (SHOWTIME, 11 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the west coast) will be the 100th in a popular, critically acclaimed series that began in July 2001. The main event will pit undefeated Fast Eddie Chambers against Calvin The Boxing Banker Brock in an International Boxing Federation (IBF) title elimination bout.
On Nov. 16, in a special ShoBox event airing live from St. Lucia, World Boxing Council (WBC) No. 7 contender Cristobal Arreola will face unbeaten Teke Oruh in a 10-rounder for the WBC Continental Americas title.
On Saturday, Nov. 3, SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING (10 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the west coast) returns with a world championship doubleheader highlighted by a WBC super featherweight title fight between defending champion Juan Manuel Marquez and Rocky Juarez. In the semi-main, Robert The Ghost Guerrero will defend his IBF 126-pound belt against Martin Honorio.

To recap:I intitially responded to a point by another saying composting boat waste off the boat would take years. I pointed to a document referenced elsewhere that showed pathogenic performance at 30 to 80 C. I concluded a container in the sun would be compatable with such consitions (as an aside I know I can maintain said temps in the sun from solar heating design efforts). Again I was referring to a table showing performance at temps between 30 and 80 C. The poster quoted above chose to interpret said table as establishing limits from 50 to 120 days. That was incorrect and I pointed that out and indicated a worst case in the table of less that 120 days...again it is a table at 30 to 80 C. Politely I pointed this out I might add. Quote above is countered by an
ad hominem
attack alledging some bias on my part and adding in conditions outside the referenced table parameters and outside the intitial point of the post response.
I never said anything about a cold boat anywhere in the string and nowhere reference data for conditions below 30C and did not insintuate that referenced shoulddata apply to other conditions. Therefore I believe it inappropriate for one to assume my string of exchange had done so or that I misapplied or biased any facts in the discussion.
So having said my piece and defended my honor, I'll now lay down the pen and let the quoted poster conclude they have in some way put me in my place; chastised me appropriately for my obvious lack of intellectual rigor; and perhaps provide further opportunity for the development of a data set for me to test my hypothesis about the quoted poster's motivation. Peace.
Now that's more fun!

The head of Medicis Pharmaceutical (MRX) said Friday that he's continuing his effort to acquire Inamed (IMDC) even though Allergan (AGN) has made a competing bid.
Medicis Chairman and Chief Executive Jonah Shacknai said his company is proceeding with "all systems go" in pursuit of Inamed. He made the comments to investors at a Credit Suisse First Boston health care conference.
The company has filed a formal proxy with the Securities and Exchange Commission, set a Dec. 19 date for a shareholders' vote and filed answers to antitrust-related questions posed by the Federal Trade Commission. The FTC 30-day review period expires Dec. 14.
And if Inamed decides against what Shacknai calls an excellent offer, he said Medicis won't rethink its business strategy because he doesn't have "an emotional view" about the acquisition

evolving models of the earth system (National Research Council, 1990b:111). The need to understand global change may well become a powerful force for change in the existing structure of scientific disciplines.
Research on the human dimensions of global change strives to understand the interactions between human systems and environmental systems, particularly global environmental systems, and to understand the aspects of human systems that affect those interactions. Human systems include economies, populations, cultures, governments, organizations that make technological choices, and so forth. Many of them are associated with disciplines that specialize in their study. Environmental systems include systems of atmospheric gas exchange, biogeochemical dynamics, ocean circulation, ecological interactions of populations of organisms, and so forth. These also tend to be associated with academic specializations.
Interactions between human systems and environmental systems have two critical interfaces, as shown in Figure 2-2. One is the subset of human actions that act as proximate causes of environmental change, that is, that directly alter aspects of the environment. The other is the subset of outcomes of environmental systems that proximally affect what humans value.
The example of anthropogenic climate change can clarify the relationships involved. Each human system has its own internal dynamics, and each also interacts with other human systems and the environment. Some of the activities of human systems, such as fossil fuel burning and agricultural conversion of wetlands, are significant proximate causes of global environmental change. That is, they directly alter aspects of the environment in ways that have global effects. These particular proximal causes add carbon dioxide and methane to the atmosphere and thus contribute to the greenhouse effect. The human causes of global environmental change, which are the focus of Chapter 3, include the human activities that proximally, or directly, alter the global environment and the aspects of human systems that explain those activities and therefore affect the global environment indirectly through their effects on the proximal causes. It is important to emphasize that the human causes of global environmental change quite often depend on decisions made and actions taken without any consideration of the global environment.
