ORLANDO, Fla.—Tell City Wrestling Club members Dylan Froehlich and Jeff Weiss earned medals for their performances with Hoosier Elite in the AAU national wrestling tourney June 23-26.
Hoosier Elite wrestled 13 matches in the tourney and finished 30th among 38 teams in the all-star division.
Though it was a team competition, individual records were also kept to determine the top finishers in each weight class.
Froehlich, who will be a senior at Tell City, went 11-2 with five pins to place third and earn the bronze medal in the 215-pound weight class.
TELL CITY—Josalyn Ress and Lacy Briggs combined to pitch a no-hitter as Frederick Sheet Metal beat Cash Waggner & Associates 10-1 to take over sole possession of second place in Tell City's age-13-16 girls softball league Monday.
Frederick Sheet Metal and Cash Waggner each entered this game with a 4-2 record. But Frederick Sheet Metal was in control from the first inning, when it scored four runs on three hits, two walks and two errors.
NEW CASTLE - Recent Tell City graduates Andy Chinn and Lauren Goffinet held their own with players from throughout the state as they helped their teams win in the first Indiana Class Basketball All-Star Classic Saturday.
The Classic featured two boys and two girls games, with players from the Indianapolis Metro Area taking on players from the rest of the state.
One game for each gender featured stars from Class A and 2A schools and the other featured players from Class 3A and 4A schools.
Like any first-year project, the Indiana Class Basketball All-Star Classic needs some fine tuning. But I like the basic concept behind it and think it will gain more popularity with players and fans in future years.
One thing I like is it is virtually the only all-star classic in which half the players must come from schools in the state's two smallest enrollment classes.
Thus a lot of players from smaller schools who got overlooked by other all-star games got to play in this one.
LEOPOLD – Perry Central's Age 13 baseball team split games Friday night with North Harrison's Age 13 team but swept Crawford County Saturday at Perry Central.
In game one Friday against North Harrison, Perry Central lost 10-7. Coach Bob Linne said the team only had three hits, which Andrew Huber, Nathan Shaw and Dacota Schaad made.
Austin Leclere pitched four innings and faced 23 batters, struck out three and walked three. He also gave up six hits and seven runs. Schaad faced three batters, walked two and gave up one hit and three runs.
LEOPOLD – Perry Central's Age 14 team lost Saturday's game against North Harrison Age 14 but won against their Age 13 team Tuesday.
In Saturday's game North Harrison won 2-1. Hitters were Tanner Cassidy, who was 3-for-3 with three singles and Nick Edwards with one single and 1 RBI.
Cassidy pitched five innings with three strikes and five walks. Derek Thomas pitched one strike and two walks in the last inning. Coach Brian Cassidy said catcher Andrew Mosby "picked off two kids stealing second base."
LEOPOLD – Tuesday was a good night for Perry Central's Age 13 baseball team, winning both games against Crawford County's Age 14 team.
In game one they won 9-7. Coach Bob Linne said Nathan Shaw, Austin Linne, Dacota Schaad and Alton Cummings had two hits each. Cummings had three RBIs. Austin Leclere pitched four three-fourths innings and faced 27 batters, striking out six, walking four and giving up five hits and seven runs. He also hit one batter. Shaw pitched the final third inning, facing one batter.
COLUMBUS – Anjan Kashyab of Tell City played in the USTA Boys 14 Singles TLAC Columbus Junior Open in Columbus and won the championship title.
He played in a tough finals game, which lasted one hour and 40 minutes with high humidity and temperature more than 105 degrees on the court. He beat Graham McMullen of Pendleton 6-4;6-4.
He now has a 30-11 win-loss record in the USTA 14 Singles category in Indiana. In the preliminary rounds Kashyab got a bye due to his rankings and in the semi-final he beat Ernest XI of Columbus 6-2;6-3.
TELL CITY — Tell City rallied twice to try to keep its winning streak going but lost a Diamond League baseball doubleheader to Southridge Thursday.
Those were Tell City's first losses of the summer. Tell City was 5-0 in the league and 7-0 overall after sweeping the Heritage Hills Sluggers Junior Legion team in a non-Diamond League doubleheader Wednesday.
TELL CITY - Franzman Insurance entered Wednesday's Babe Ruth League baseball game tied for first place with Kiwanis, each with three losses.
But Franzman's 4-3 loss to Marksman Cab Company, coupled with Kiwanis' 9-7 win over Woodcrafters Thursday, put Kiwanis alone in first place and also put Marksman Cab back into the race.
Three of Marksman Cab's runs Wednesday were unearned.

The top stories of 2006
Share This Story
10. Look who's back
Just when you thought the Phil Mickelson of old — you remember him, the guy who'd pull driver when the situation absolutely demanded he hit three-iron — was gone for good, along came the 2006 U.S. Open.
Mickelson came to the 18th tee with a one-shot lead over Geoff Ogilvy and likely needed nothing better than a par to put himself halfway toward the Grand Slam.
That's not a good time to hit the worst shot of your career — a slice that bounced off a hospitality tent. As bad as that shot was, Mickelson compounded the error with a series of questionable decisions.
He tried to cut a three-iron around a tree, only to watch it hit the trunk and ricochet right back at him. A second cut shot then found the left greenside bunker, making the back right pin an almost impossible play — as he proved when his sand shot trickled off the green. His bogey chip to force a playoff never had a chance.
"I just can't believe that I did that," Mickelson would say afterward. "I am such an idiot."
9. In a Flash
The Mavericks had won the first two games of the NBA Finals and were just six minutes away from taking an all-but-insurmountable 3-0 series lead.
Enter Dwyane Wade. Scoring 12 of his game-high 42 points in those final 360 seconds, Wade helped the Heat rally from a 13-point deficit and win Game 3, 98-96.
And Wade didn't stop there. He scored 36, 43 and 36 points, respectively, in the next three games — all Miami wins — as the Heat completed the unlikely rally to win their first NBA championship.
8. Highs and lows
Ben Roethlisberger certainly had an eventful 2006.
It started with the second-year quarterback improbably leading the Steelers to a win in Super Bowl XL (even if his biggest play was a defensive one, a game-saving tackle of Indy's Nick Harper after he recovered a Jerome Bettis fumble).
It almost ended in June, as a helmet-less Roethlisberger crashed his motorcycle, going over the handlebars of the bike and shattering the windshield of an oncoming car with his head.
Roethlisberger suffered fractures to the jaw and right sinus cavity, a nine-inch laceration to the back of his head and two lost teeth. But he was well enough to start for the Steelers as soon as the preseason.
7. 25 million reasons to live
On the night of September 27, 2006, Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens was rushed by ambulance to Baylor Medical Center. But it wasn't until the next morning that the real firestorm started.
That's when several media outlets reported that Owens had attempted suicide by intentionally overdosing on hydrocodone, a generic form of Vicodin.
According to the details of the police report, T.O.'s publicist, Kim Etheredge, called 911 about a suicide attempt and told the paramedics who arrived on the scene that Owens was depressed.
Owens and Etheredge would both deny that any suicide attempt had taken place, blaming the incident on an allergic reaction to the pain medication T.O. was taking for a broken bone in his hand.
"Terrell has 25 million reasons to be alive," Etheredge famously said.
6. Landis wins Tour, then loses it
Lance Armstrong was gone, but America's dominance of the Tour de France was apparently going to continue.
Floyd Landis, a 30-year-old son of an Amish farmer, won the event in the closest three-way finish in the history of the Tour. Landis had appeared to fall out of contention following stage 16, dropping from first to 11th, more than eight minutes behind the leaders. But the next day, he mounted one of the more stirring comebacks in Tour history, pulling to within 30 seconds of the lead and using that rally as a springboard to the yellow jersey.
But four days after the Tour, it was announced Landis had tested positive for synthetic testosterone and a ratio of testosterone-to-epitestosterone more than three times the allowed limit following that historic Stage 17 comeback.
Landis would be stripped of the title and runner-up Oscar Pereiro would be declared the winner.
5. Barbaro breaks down
Almost every year after the Kentucky Derby, hope springs eternal that we might be witnessing a potential Triple Crown winner.
In 2006, it was more than just hope.
Barbaro had become just the sixth horse to enter the Kentucky Derby with a perfect record and leave with it intact. His 6 1/2-length win in the Derby also represented the largest margin of victory in 60 years.
But rather than becoming the second leg of a run to history, the Preakness instead would be witness to tragedy.
Shortly after the race started, jockey Edgar Prado pulled Barbaro up, quickly dismounted and grabbed the horse's injured right hind leg in an effort to keep pressure off it.
Barbaro had broken his leg in 20 places and even after a successful — not to mention, pioneering — surgery, his chances for survival were considered 50-50 at best. But his fight for his life drew worldwide attention, as thousands of get-well messages flooded the New Bolton Center.
After some encouraging initial developments, complications set in and Barbaro was euthanized on January 29, 2007.
4. Cinderella story
Upsets are part and parcel of the NCAA tournament. In fact, they're a big part of the appeal of March Madness.
But usually the Davids only stick around for a round or two after slaying Goliath, then get out of the way and let the big boys cut down the nets.
In 2006, however, Cinderella stayed way past the stroke of midnight.
George Mason had never won an NCAA tournament game in the school's history and was actually quite fortunate to get an at-large bid to the tournament, sneaking in as a No. 11 seed.
Once they got to the tourney, however, the Patriots showed they definitely belonged.
George Mason became just the second double-digit seed to make it to the Final Four and the first in two decades, beating powerhouses Michigan State, North Carolina and Connecticut before finally losing to eventual champion Florida.
3. Father's day
Tiger Woods' first tournament back after the death of his father, Earl, went pretty much as you would have expected it to, given that he'd picked the torture test also known as the U.S. Open to make his return to competitive golf after a nine-week layoff. A still rusty and emotionally unprepared Woods missed the cut in a major championship for the first time as a pro.
But he'd clearly shaken the rust off by the time the British Open rolled around, as he narrowly missed tying his own Open scoring record while cruising to his second straight Claret Jug.
Of course, we're used to seeing that from Tiger. What we saw after Woods sank the putt on No. 18 to put the finishing touches on his 11th major championship? Well, we'd never witnessed that before, as Woods buried his head in caddie Steve Williams' shoulder and wept uncontrollably.
"At that moment, it just came pouring out," Woods said. "And all of the things that my father has meant to me and the game of golf, I just wish he would have seen it one more time."
2. Coming up Roses
If USC converted on a fourth-and-two from the Texas 45 with 2:09 left in the Rose Bowl, the Trojans would have been able to run out the clock, win a third title in as many years and work their way into the "greatest of all time" discussion behind the strength of a 35th consecutive win.
But LenDale White was stopped inches short of the first, opening the door for the Longhorns.
And Vince Young promptly ran through it.
Young, who finished with 200 rushing yards and 267 more through the air in the ultimate rebuttal to the Heisman voters (he finished second, behind USC's Reggie Bush), quickly led his team down the field.
Facing a fourth-and-five from USC's 9, Young scrambled untouched into the end zone to give Texas the 41-38 win and the school's first national championship since 1970.
1. You butt head
Before the final game of the 2006 World Cup, French midfielder Zinedine Zidane was awarded the Golden Ball as the best player of the competition.
By the end of it, FIFA was probably wishing it had waited. That way, it could have avoided giving that honor to a player who'd been ejected from the game for head butting an opponent and was therefore unavailable as his team lost in penalty kicks.
Provoked by Italy's Marco Materazzi (the actual taunt has never been ascertained, but lip-readers' best guesses have ranged from a taunt about Zidane's sister to accusations that Zidane was a dirty terrorist), Zidane responded with a head butt to his chest.
The ensuing red card brought an ignoble end to both Zidane's Cup and his international playing career. It also severely hurt France's chances at a second Cup in the last three tournaments, as Italy prevailed in penalty kicks, 5-3.

Opportunity Knocked — Republicans Shut the Door, but Now Protest
"Opportunity Knocked — Republicans Shut the Door, but Now Protest"
This morning the Center for American Progress Action Fund (CAPAF) released a brief report surveying Republican voting records on renewable energy (see data here).
This comes the day following Grist's celebration of Thomas Friedman's op-ed in the NYT finally calling out a glaring hypocrisy as we head into an intense season of presidential campaigning.
As we covered months ago, the renewal of th erenewable energy production and investment tax credits are vital to the industrym which have created jobs, generated growth in new sectors, and provided clean energy. The credits were a singular opportunity (inserted in several pieces of legislation) for Congress to act on tangible, near-term, and meaningful energy policy – but as CAPAF found, partisanship stood in the way.
The blogosphere has reacted strongly this week. It's important for people to understand that this is a non-partisan crisis whose potential solutions are being blocked by Republicans who then spin the blame on Democrats.
New study finds House Republicans participating in energy protests consistently voted against energy independence
Click here to see the full chart
WASHINGTON, DC — Numerous House Republicans participating in the energy protests voted against every attempt to increase clean alternative energy sources during this Congress, according to a new analysis by the Center for American Progress Action Fund. Their consistent opposition to wind, solar, geothermal, and other clean energy sources contrasts with their participation in the House Republicans' protests in favor of offshore oil drilling in protected areas. These protests in the closed House chamber began on August 1, and House Republican Leaders announced that they will continue through August 22.
"These House Republicans win the gold medal for wasted energy due to the hours they spent agitating for big oil's ocean drilling agenda while opposing real clean energy solutions," said Daniel J. Weiss of the Center for American Progress Action Fund. "Meanwhile, American families suffer from record gasoline and energy prices."
"Conservatives in Congress opposed relatively simple, inexpensive new sources of energy while thirsting after America's beaches and coasts. Wind farms can be built and produce energy in two years. Meanwhile, the Department of Energy determined that drilling in protected areas of the Outer Continental Shelf would not have a 'significant impact on domestic crude oil and natural gas production or prices before 2030.' "
The CAPAF analysis examined the protesting representatives' votes on six different bills or amendments in the 110th Congress that would support clean energy alternatives.
The average participant in the protests to urge drilling in protected coastal areas voted against clean renewable energy 95 percent of the time.
The United States has massive potential for wind, solar, and geothermal energy. The Department of Energy determined that wind energy has the potential to provide 20 percent of all U.S. electricity needs by 2030. Scientists found that the solar energy hitting an area of 100 square miles in the Southwest is enough to supply the entire United States with all its electricity needs via 10 percent efficient photovoltaic cells. Domestic resources of geothermal energy have the capacity to fully meet energy demands for thousands of years.
According to a study by the House Natural Resources Committee, big oil companies already have access to nearly 80 percent of all offshore oil and gas in the lower 48 states. These companies hold leases for 44 million acres offshore, but are only producing oil or gas from 10 million of these acres. Before opening the protected coastal areas from Malibu to Miami to Maine, oil companies should develop existing leases.
"Renowned oil man T. Boone Pickens is promoting wind power as a clean alternative to oil," continued Weiss. "He has said 'This is one emergency we can't drill our way out of. But if we create a new renewable energy network, we can break our addiction to foreign oil.'"
"Yet conservatives continue their devotion to big oil's demands for more of our coastal waters while opposing common-sense clean energy solutions that can quickly provide energy."

On September 21, the UK Financial Services Authority (FSA) released a speech entitled "Financial Promotions: Keeping Connected and Compliant" delivered by Clive Gordon, FSA's Head of Conduct Risk. The speech highlighted common poor practices identified by the FSA during its routine monitoring of digital media promotions.
Mr. Gordon drew particular attention to what he termed "a couple of common regulatory myths about using digital media"
He emphasized the need for risk information to be prominent and clearly displayed and for digital promotions to meet the FSA's requirements for stand-alone compliance regardless of where or how a promotion appears.
It is proposed under the Financial Services Bill currently before Parliament that the FSA's successor regulator the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) will have the power to ban misleading financial promotions. Mr. Gordon stated that the FCA "will be ready to take faster and more effective action from the first day we get these powers" and will act to remove misleading promotions from the market immediately. When it uses this power, the FCA will publish the promotion and the reasons for banning it to act as a deterrent to other regulated firms.

Niagra fallsPosted Mar 26, 2015
I love Marriott but the staff at this hotel was terrible even my daughters were in shock. Never have I had such a terrible experience. Other than that the hotel is nice I suggest the marriott across the street was much better in fact they answered all our questions and helped with transfers around town.

Expecting More For the PricePosted Aug 8, 2013
I was expecting more for the price. For example WiFi should be FREE (or at least much cheaper than $10/day). The same goes for Parking. $20/day in an open parking lot. Seriously? We got the Falls View room. Room were clean and in my opinion looks a tad outdated. Nothing fancy here. Breakfast should have been included but it's not. Elevators are very slow. We had to use the stairs a few times. All the way to the 6th floor. Unfortunately we won't be staying at this hotel again anytime in the future. The view of the falls are nice but that gets old quick after a few hours. I travel quite a few for business and usually don't care where they put me because I'm not paying for it. Amazing the details I've noticed when I had to pay for it :)

Great view, poor service and needs updatingPosted Jul 10, 2013
3rd floor view was fine, but the staff had a can't do attitude that was disappointing despite the fact that they often accomplished what we were asking.

Great location!Posted Jun 19, 2013
The hotel was clean, and had a great view of the falls. The beds were comfortable, and we had no issues with the room or hotel. The negatives were that the hotel only offers free WiFi in the lobby/common areas, NOT IN YOUR ROOM. So if you needed to use your internet device like kindle or ipad, you had to go down to the lobby, or pay a fee to have access in your room. This is not a cheap hotel, so having free WiFi in your room should be an included amenity!! Also, they charge $20/day to allow you to park your car in the crowded lot. A positive is the open air patio on the 3rd floor, with a lovely view of the falls. However, we only discovered it by reading the plaque on the elevator wall that noted what amenities could be found on various floors, the day before we left. Also, it only has 3 park benches on the large area to sit on, putting your eyes at rail height (unless you're tall).

Cons: No free Internet, parking expensive
First the bad. Room was not ready until 5:30 (check in time 3:00). Fees for Wifi and parking were very high. Now the good. Our room was on the 30th floor and it does indeed look directly over the falls. Views are beautiful all day (warning the rooms face East and the morning sun is very bright) and at night. We did not use any of the hotels services but the location on the bus line and easy access to the Casino and restaurants make it an ideal location that is in a very quiet area.

Very accommodating and courteousPosted Aug 21, 2012
Pros: Close restaurants
Cons: No free Internet
My personal wheelchair broke while traveling. Upon arrival I mentioned my need to locate a rental wheelchair for my stay while in Toronto. Byron, the concierge, IMMEDIATELY set out to locate a rental company and I had a wheelchair available for me at a nearby company the next morning.

Gorgeous viewPosted Aug 15, 2012
Pros: Close restaurants, Quiet
Cons: expensive self parking
Our room was in the top several floors with a falls view, which was really spectacular. Although not one to dwell on hotel rooms during a trip, it really is worth the extra money to be able to sit and watch the falls from your room. Cons: Self parking is over priced, $20 a night.

Reasonable location and price for Niagara FallsPosted Aug 13, 2012
Pros: Close restaurants, Quiet
Cons: No free Internet
The hotel was nice and clean, but not exactly a resort and the Marriott Fallsview and Hilton are both nicer and better view/ location for same price range. The staff was awesome though, place was spotless everyday, left us extra towels ( traveling wih 2 kids) and the housekeepers tucked our kids toys/ stuffed animals in everyday so when we came back to the room the kids had a laugh. Location is okay but don't buy the shuttle tickets, other shuttles take you directly to the attractions the shuttle for the Marriott leaves you a block or two away in each case... Check the map for the routes before you buy. Internet is $12.95 a day, but free via the concierge lounge on 19th floor or in the lobby.

nICE ROOM WITH GOOD tvPosted Jul 9, 2012
Pros: Close restaurants, Quiet, very good workout room and equipment
Cons: No free Internet, very slow elevator service- long waits to get betw, no place to sun bathe.
DISAPPOINTED THAT THEY CHARGED FOR WI FI ACCESS WHEN CHEAPER HOTELs NEARBY PROVIDE FREE. Had limited business use computers and children allowed to stay them over an hour at a time. No restrictions. Supposed to be business use. No outdoor pool for place for sun bathing. Restaurants were very nice. Pleasant dining experience. The 16% tourism tax gets to be a bit much

Bills would block new monuments on public land
Tuesday - 9/13/2011, 4:42pm EDT
By MATTHEW DALY
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - Presidents from Theodore Roosevelt to George W. Bush have designated public land as national monuments, using a federal law to protect from development sites judged to have natural, historical or scientific significance.
Now some House Republicans, saying the 105-year-old law has been misused, have introduced bills to limit or block the president's ability to make such designations without approval from Congress.
GOP Rep. Denny Rehberg of Montana compared the 1906 Antiquities Act to the mythical sword of Damocles, calling it a weapon that can be used against rural communities at any time without warning.
Residents of Montana and other Western states "must cope with the constant knowledge that, one day, we could wake up to find that with the stroke of a pen, the president declared their back yard a national monument," Rehberg said Tuesday.
For many living in the West, "it's no myth," Rehberg said, citing a 2001 designation by then-President Bill Clinton creating the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument in Montana and Clinton's 1996 designation of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in Utah.
Rehberg, who is running for U.S. Senate against Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., sponsored one of six GOP bills to overturn or limit the Antiquities Act.
The bills respond to outrage expressed throughout the West last year after an internal Interior Department memo was made public. The memo listed 14 sites in nine states that could be designated as national monuments. The plan was never formally proposed, but opponents said its existence showed the need to reform the law.
"This isn't about preventing future monument designations. It's about making sure those designations aren't forced on people who frankly don't want or need them," Rehberg said.
Jerry Taylor, mayor of Escalante City, Utah, testified in favor of the bills. He said the 15-year-old Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument has been "devastating" to his small town and cost many people their jobs.
The 1.9-million acre monument "has hurt the local economy, driven our residents to find work elsewhere and burdened local government to provide uncompensated services," Taylor told the House Natural Resources Committee Tuesday.
Ray Rasker, executive director of Headwaters Economics, a Montana-based research group, said economic data does not support Taylor's claim. Rasker's group studied the economic performance of communities adjacent to 17 national monuments in the West.
"In all cases there was growth of employment, real personal income and real per capita income. In no case did we find that the creation of a national monument studied led to an economic downturn," he said.
No one from the Obama administration appeared at the hearing, but the Interior Department submitted testimony opposing all six bills.
The Antiquities Act helped establish some of the nation's most familiar monuments, from the Grand Canyon to the Statue of Liberty and Muir Woods, the statement said.
"Without the president's authority under the Antiquities Act, it is unlikely that many of these special places would have been protected and preserved as quickly and as fully as they were," the statement said. "Who among us today would dam the Grand Canyon or turn Muir Woods over to development? These sites ... speak eloquently to the wisdom of retaining the Antiquities Act is its current form."
Rep. Rob Bishop, R-Utah, whose office first made public the internal Interior Department memo, said he has received assurances from the Obama administration that none of the sites listed will be designated as monuments in the president's current term.
But he said a law is needed just to make sure. "I take them at their word, but I don't want another Clinton to ever do it again," Bishop said.
Environmental groups blasted the GOP bills, saying monument designation has boosted tourism and preserved cultural wonders.

BP Well Sealed, Relief Well Work Continues
The damaged oil well in the Gulf of Mexico has been sealed using a top kill operation, but US officials said Friday they still plan to make sure it is truly "killed" by pumping cement in through a relief well workers have been drilling since April.
US spill chief Thad Allen assured that they were "very close to having the well secured."
Pressure tests confirmed that the well no longer has "direct communication with the reservoir" thanks to the top kill operation which pumped drilling mud and cement down through the wellhead, said Allen.
The well may be "effectively killed and we just don't know it," Allen said. But he said that he would not be satisfied until he was certain oil would never leak out of the well again.
The well's annulus — the space between the inner well tubing and the outer casting — is believed to have trapped 1,000 barrels of oil since cement was pumped in from above effectively sealing the annulus from the surface. But to make sure it is effectively killed, officials made the decision to continue with the so-called "bottom kill" operation.
It has been agreed upon "that we need to proceed with the relief well," Allen told AFP. The only question is, how to do it?
One possibility is to install a new blowout preventer on top of the capped well to make sure oil doesn't escape if a mistake is made during the bottom kill operation, he said.
Allen was able to provide a date for completion, but said it will take about 96 hours (4 days) to finish the bottom kill, which was delayed for a few days due to an approaching storm.
The Gulf of Mexico oil spill is the largest-scale maritime disaster on record. Nearly five million barrels of oil were spilled into the Gulf — enough to fill 311 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
It threatened marine wildlife all along the US Gulf Coast with environmental ruin and put coastal residential communities into months of anguish over how the disaster will affect their livelihoods and the region's future.

So he started a new company and hid himself from it as the real owner instead using João who incidentally wrote and responded nearly word for word verbatim the way Alain did for so many years....
I own one of Alain's Oceanne/Sword anchors plus two Spade's.. I actually caught Alain in his little scam (long story that could create an entire thread) during some email conversations.
Funny enough that João & Raya disappeared at EXACTLY the same time that Alain Poiraud passed away.... Go figure....
I do believe there was a guy named João that worked for him but the email responses and many of the internet postings were that of Alain posing as João.
Alain had a huge hatred for everything Rocna and Manson so take what he said with a grain of salt. Sadly he never could build a better anchor than the Spade, despite multiple attempts. He was a great anchor designer though...
The whole anchor underworld can get pretty sleazy. Just enter
www dot ancoralatina dot com
(the old web address of Alain's company that made the Raya) into your address bar and see what pops up?????
That's right the minute Alain Poiraud passed away, and his web domain lapsed for a split second, the Smith's of Rocna fame jumped in and picked it up redirecting all Ancora Latina traffic to the Peter Smith / Rocna page.... Peter Smith apparently had no love lost for Alain either so much so that he found it perfectly ethical to pilfer a dead mans web site......
Why is it that they all act like bottom feeders?

Increasingly more legitimate, compliant e-mail is blocked and filtered. How can CAN-SPAM be more effective? Last of a series.
Since CAN-SPAM took effect just over a year ago, we've seen our clients' delivery and open rates drop. When email does get through, it works just as well as it did before CAN-SPAM, in some cases even better. Unfortunately, less email is getting past gatekeepers.
In part one, we examined how CAN-SPAM has harmed legitimate direct marketers. Now, we'll look at the nitty-gritty of what happens when email hits ISPs and what can be done to help messages from legitimate email marketers get through.
We spend way too much time worrying about getting email messages into customers' inboxes instead of being deleted or redirected to bulk or spam folders by their ISPs. Regardless of your position on CAN-SPAM, when an average 30 percent of legitimate permission-based email is deleted or redirected to spam folders, we have a problem:
To get a handle on the situation, I spoke with Deirdre Baird, president of Pivotal Veracity, a company that tracks what happens to email when it hits the ISPs. Our conversation provided insight into the often-confusing world of email deliverability.
"Most marketers understand the impact their content and subject line can have on delivery," said Baird. "However, content-related problems, while still important, are by no means the only problems that are impacting delivery today. Most marketers tend to 'blame' the content when delivery suffers, when, in fact, issues completely unrelated to content are often the problem."
Taking Baird's assessment into account, some recommendations for your email marketing efforts.
Consistent, Timely Bounce Management
Many large ISPs block or redirect email to the spam folder if the mailer sends an excessive number of messages to invalid email addresses. The problem is double-edged. ISPs send bounce notices to mailers for a variety of reasons. These reasons are generally grouped into transitional problems ("soft bounces") and permanent problems ("hard bounces").
A soft bounce typically makes it through the mail server's front gate but bounces back due to some issue with the recipient's email inbox. A soft bounce could occur because of a full mailbox, an overextended or down server, too large a message, user who is inactive for an extended time, and other reasons.
There are over 30 different types of hard bounces, the most common being an invalid or nonexistent email address. Others can relate to too many recipients, an invalid media type, and large message sizes that exceed what the receiver can accept. Hard bounces never get past the mail server's front gate.
Every organization needs rules to handle email bounces. We remove email from our files after two hard bounces or five soft bounces. We've found this threshold best to validate the nature of the bounces.
Proper HTML Construction
HTML email is commonplace. Yet the vast majority of HTML messages aren't compliant with World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards for HTML construction.
Bad HTML construction is the largest mailer-controlled reason for improper message rendering. This can mean images don't show up correctly, links don't work, tables are poorly nested, and other issues. Some ISPs block or redirect improperly constructed email.
HTML designers and marketers should develop a checklist for viewing their messages in different email clients. Not everyone uses Microsoft Outlook. Quite a few people use email clients from AOL and Eudora. And don't forget free Web-based email, such as Yahoo and Hotmail. Each has its own HTML construction issues.
IP-Related Issues and History
An inordinate number of delivery problems are related to a mailer's IP infrastructure. These issues have a direct effect on delivery and result in blocked mail or redirects to spam folders.
The issues depend on whether you use an in-house solution or an external ASP (define) to send email. Issues for in-house mailers typically relate to insecure or improperly configured infrastructures that are fairly easy to fix. Examples include not having reverse DNS (define) enabled, running insecure versions of form mail, and having an improper SPF (define) setup. Have your IT group validate that your infrastructure is compliant with ISP spam filter rules.
For mailers who utilize external vendors, the most common IP-related issue is use of shared IPs. Many email delivery vendors continue to deploy mail for many clients from the same IP address. One mailer's activity can affect every other mailer on the same IP address. If one mailer is blocked, every mailer is blocked. Review the provider and ensure its IP address isn't on block lists. Spam Assassin's list is a good place to start.
If you have a really good relationship with any of the major ISPs, help everyone's cause by lobbying them to adopt standards that once and for all help defeat the bad guys and make legitimate email more deliverable.

Charmin Unveils Pillow Technology with Newly Designed Ultra Soft Kenny G Teams Up with Charmin to Show that Soft Rocks! Business Wire CINCINNATI -- January 14, 2014 Softness especially from toilet paper, should never be compromised. To highlight and celebrate America's softest toilet paper, Charmin will transform the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, New York into the "Soft Rocks! Cafe." The event showcases Charmin Ultra Soft, including the inspiration, creation, and technology behind Charmin's most comforting design with new comfort cushions. "At Charmin we regularly speak with consumers to get their perspective on our products. When we asked them about softness, they talked about their beds – the down comforters, fluffy pillows and Egyptian cotton sheets," said Gregg Weaver, Senior Scientist in Family Care Research & Development at P&G. "We used that insight to develop our comfort cushions, which look and feel soft like pillows." Charmin is partnering with musician Kenny G who is known for his soothing, soft sounds. To kick-off the celebration of softness, Kenny G will treat crowds in Times Square with an impromptu concert outside the "Soft Rocks! Cafe." "I have built my career around bringing my fans softness through music," said Kenny G. "I am excited to partner with Charmin to help people add more softness into every aspect of their daily lives." "Consumers have told us that softness is one of three top qualities they seek in a toilet paper," said Weaver. "Strength and absorbency are the other two. At Charmin, we make sure to deliver a well-balanced product that meets all of our customer's needs." Used by more residential plumbers than any other brand, Charmin offers a clog free or the purchase is free guarantee. Consumers can also use up to four times less toilet paper with Charmin versus the leading bargain brand. To learn more, visit www.charmin.com, Facebook.com/Charmin or @Charmin.

Housing fee referendum certified
SD City Council now to decide to repeal or send to voters
City Clerk Elizabeth Maland said she will present a certificate of signature sufficiency at the council's Monday or Tuesday meeting. The council will then have 10 business days -- until March 10 or 11 -- in which to rescind the measure or put it on the next regularly scheduled citywide ballot.
Presumably, the referendum date should be settled quickly so that housing advocates and developers know what fees to expect in the future.
But the March 3 and 4 council agendas already include several contentions issues -- such as marijuana dispensaries and La Jolla seals. And so Gloria, who controls the agenda, has to decide if there is time to add the controversial linkage fee vote as well.
Fee opponents said it doesn't matter when the vote takes place.
"We will run robust a campaign" to get the measure overturned, campaign spokesman Benedetto said.
If fee ballot measure is delayed, that would mean that San Diego city voters would only have to decide one referendum issue -- the fate of the Barrio Logan community plan.
Approved by the council in September, the plan and its implementing ordinances were opposed by shipyard interests that are concerned their suppliers might not be able to remain nearby because of zoning changes.
Supporters of the plan say no jobs will be lost because of the plan and that the community's health and safety would be better protected under the new plan.
In the recent mayoral election campaign, Councilman David Alvarez supported both the linkage fees and Barrio Logan plan and his opponent, Councilman Kevin Faulconer, now mayor-elect, opposed them.

It appears that there is a chance that Michael Vick might make one more start for the Philadelphia Eagles this season. Rookie QB Nick Foles suffered a hairline fracture in his hand during Sunday's loss to the Washington Redskins. He sustained the injury to his hand near the end of the first-half and Eagles head coach Andy Reid told the media this afternoon that Foles will not start in the team's season finale.
There are expected to be some wholesale changes for the Eagles this offseason with Reid along with Michael Vick expected to be somewhere else next season.
Reid told reporters Monday morning that it looks as if Vick will be the starting quarterback this week. "There's a pretty good chance that Mike will be the starter. That's what I'm looking at right now. That's the direction I'm going in as we speak right now, " Reid stated.
Vick was replaced by Foles after suffering what was termed, a "serious concussion" earlier this season and was not expected to make another start for the Eagles this year. Vick struggled with turnovers before suffering his injuries and will have one last opportunity this week against the New York Giants to audition for a new team in 2013.
Foles has struggled a bit in the starting role with the Eagles, but he has also started the majority of his games without DeSean Jackson or LeSean McCoy in the lineup. If Vick does not get the starting nod, Trent Edwards would likely start, but he has seen no action this season.
