International Society of Automation News Release
Contact: Jennifer Infantino

Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, USA (7 August 2014) - The International Society of Automation (ISA) announces that the newly released third edition of its Tuning of Industrial Control Systems book simplifies modern control system tuning by eliminating mathematical complexity and addressing the real-world needs of control system technicians.
The authors, Armando B. Corripio, Ph.D., and Michael Newell, drew upon their project management experiences at major oil refineries to move away from the more academic approach of the two previous editions, and more simply explain how to improve control performance.
For example, the authors concentrate on just two rules for tuning-one that works best for common loops and the other for dead-time dominated loops.
Dr. Corripio, Professor Emeritus in chemical engineering at Louisiana State University (LSU), says that a more simplified explanation of tuning makes it easier to master today's fundamental control techniques.
"By being less academic in approach, and removing a lot of the mathematical terminology, we're able to improve understanding of how modern control systems work and help technicians better apply what they're learning in the workplace," he points out.
For instance, the third edition:
Corripio says the project management experience the authors gained at oil refineries gave them valuable insights and exposure to real-world issues and dynamics.
"I became better able to address a non-academic audience," he relates. "When I co-wrote the first two editions, I was a professor and made much more of an academic mindset and perspective."
Also unique to the third edition are:
All of the example responses were generated using simulation software to illustrate the tuning and show the differences of:

Dr. Corripio and Newell are long-time colleagues who have worked together on a variety of optimization and tuning projects for real-world implementation.
Dr. Corripio is Professor Emeritus and Adjoint Professor within the Gordon A. & Mary Cain Department of Chemical Engineering at LSU. Specializing in automatic process control, computer simulation, computer-aided process design and engineering economics, he has served as a consultant to many leading companies, including Polaris Engineering, ExxonMobil Chemical Company, Dow Chemical USA, IBM Brazil, ICI Americas, Batelle Columbus Laboratories, Bechtel Incorporated, PPG and Olin Corporation.
Dr. Corripio's academic research focuses in particular on computer-aided process design, automatic control theory and computer-integrated manufacturing. Over the years, his research has been funded by a variety of organizations, including TDA Research, the Louisiana Board of Regents, EXXON Foundation, EXXON Chemical Americas, IBM Corporation, BASF Corporation and LSU Energy Research Center.
Prior to joining the LSU Department of Chemical Engineering in 1968, Dr. Corripio served as a development engineer and control systems engineer at Dow Chemical Company. His bachelor of science degree in chemical engineering, master's degree in chemical engineering and doctorate degree were all earned from LSU. He has received numerous awards and contributed to a wide range of publications and research projects throughout his career.
Newell is an Automation Designer at Polaris Engineering Inc., a multi-discipline full-service engineering and design services company located in Lake Charles, Louisiana. Prior to joining Polaris Engineering in December 2006, Newell spent 10 years as an Automation Administrator at Calcasieu Refining. Newell holds a Level III Certified Control Systems Technician® (CCST®) certification through ISA. He received a degree in electronic communications from Sowela Institute of Technology in 1988. Newell teaches instrumentation and automation on a part-time basis as an adjunct instructor at Louisiana Technical College in Lake Charles.
Founded in 1945, the International Society of Automation (www.isa.org) is a leading, global, nonprofit organization that is setting the standard for automation by helping over 30,000 worldwide members and other professionals solve difficult technical problems, while enhancing their leadership and personal career capabilities.

|Leading practitioners in the field of psychological assessment approach the topic of psychological assessment in business from a variety of perspectives in this handbook, which is designed to acquaint human resource executives with the benefits of this type of employee screening. Human resource consultants review the elements of psychological testing, psychologists outline the testing and evaluative process, and executives representing a variety of businesses illustrate its effectiveness in case examples. This approach demonstrates that the goal of psychological assessment, successfully matching a prospective employee to a particular job, can be achieved by using many different formats. The text is careful to emphasize the need for trained psychologists to administer the assessment procedures and evaluate the results. Managers at all levels are then advised how best to utilize these results to minimize employee turnover. A typical assessment profile, including the written report, illustrates the nature of this valuable tool, and some of the oldest consulting firms in the country--as well as companies which currently use psychological assessments--describe its cost-efficiency in depth. End of chapter bibliographies provide access to further examination of the process and its applications, and the work concludes with a look to the requirements of tomorrows job market and how psychological assessment can help meet those needs. *Author: Hansen, Curtiss P./ Conrad, Kelley A. *Binding Type: Hardcover *Number of Pages: 368 *Publication Date: 1991/09/20 *Language: English *Dimensions: 5.98 x 9.01 x 0.93 inches

Wrap-up: The philosophies behind Argo
As we prepare to retire the Argo blog, we're producing a series of wrap-up posts that capture key aspects of the model we used. This post is part of that series. You can find all our tools and lessons here.
Every project should be built on a philosophy. Argo's had several elements, all of which guided our thinking as we developed tools and techniques for the bloggers in our pilot.
1. Efficiency
At the core of all our thinking was our desire to enable one person to produce as much good material as possible with as little effort as possible. We were asking this person to do a lot, so we wanted to develop software and workflows that enabled them to do a lot with a little. This applied both to the tools we built (read Nieman Lab's story about our link roundup tool) as well as to our approach to building tools (read "The Argo Philosophy: Capitalize, synthesize, harmonize").
2. The "Three-Legged Stool"
At some point during our planning discussions for Argo, our project director Joel Sucherman borrowed the metaphor of the three-legged stool to describe the three elements we felt were essential to each site:
- Strong original content. One surefire for a site to become a destination is to consistently provide distinctive, informative, enjoyable stuff. We encouraged the Argo editors to put most of their effort into reporting and writing enterprise posts on their beats. I've been particularly vocal about the power of the quest narrative as a wellspring for compelling reporting and storytelling, and about the importance of developing deep understanding of a topic to find the most important stories within it.
- Community and conversation. In the age of social media, we all know that conversation is a powerful draw for people. Sparking conversation – being the subject of watercooler chatter – has long been seen as a primary goal of journalism. In developing Argo, however, we stressed the role of community and conversation not just as an outcome of the journalism, but as an aspect of it. We encouraged the bloggers to treat comments as content, to turn their sources into commenters, and to take feedback – both praise and criticism – seriously.
- Smart curation and aggregation. As everyone becomes more and more flooded with information, people increasingly look to journalists not just as discoverers of new information, but as filters for all the stuff that's already out there. Every good journalist is an avid consumer of information on her beat; the best digital journalists are just as ardent about sharing the best of what they find. We stressed the value of informative, well-synthesized aggregation to all the Argo bloggers throughout the project.
Each site placed a different emphasis on these three components, but they were all present.
3. Open-source
One of the requirements of the grant that funded Argo was that the software we produced would be released under an open-source license. We extended this open-source ethos to several other aspects of our approach; it guided decisions about which software to use as well as conversations about what to build. This site is another reflection of our commitment to sharing our thoughts and lessons as the project progressed. I think the team would agree that our adherence to this philosophy resulted in a stronger project with a bigger impact.

Second Temple-Era Burial Boxes Found in Raid
Police recover 11 ancient ritual objects in thwarted antiquities deal
The Associated Press reports that 11 ancient burial boxes that date back 2,000 years were recovered by Israeli police last week and were unveiled today by the Israeli Antiquities Authority. Israeli police intervened early Friday morning, raiding a suspicious transaction involving two cars, four individuals, and the 11 boxes, and arresting the suspects and confiscating the boxes.
The designs engraved on the boxes, as well as bone remnants and pottery fragments inside, quickly identified them as archeologically significant, and the police notified the Israeli Antiquities Authority.
The boxes are believed to have originated in the Second Temple period, somewhere within a 1.3 mile radius of Jerusalem. The Antiquities Authority already has more than 1,000 boxes of this kind in its possession, but deputy director Eitan Klein says that each individual burial box is significant. This particular batch of boxes features elaborate engravings and names inscribed, which Klein said might indicate an individual's wealth and high social status.
Israeli antiquities law states that all antiquities discovered or found within Israel are considered property of the state. Klein said the boxes were likely found near Mt. Scopus in Jerusalem, either by individuals actively looting an old cave or in a burial cave inadvertently uncovered during a construction or excavation project. Two of the suspects involved in the thwarted exchange are still being held in police custody, and the other two are under house arrest.

Amazing how many spokespersons holler "Impeach the President." People refuse to understand that impeachment is little more than a slap on the wrist. Teachers still claim Clinton was "almost" impeached. He WAS impeached. It did no harm at all, in fact seemed to improve his stance. We need note how much that slap is promoted by Democrat leadership. If the President has repeatedly violated the constitution and the separate powers of government he should be removed from office. If all he has done is within his constitutional presidential power, like it or not, support him and leave him alone.

Best Goat Cheese Ever
I've been teaching cheesemaking classes for several years now and I find time after time that the fresh handmade chevre (goat cheese) is the thing people can't stop raving about. Not only is it adored by goat cheese lovers, it's been known to win the hearts and minds of erstwhile goat cheese-haters in my classes. Someone walks up to the cheese table, puts something they think might be ricotta on a cracker and falls in love with it just to find it's made from goat's milk! The horror!

Bacteria all around us
Last week we sat in on a discussion hosted by CUESA and Kitchen Table Talks (a joint project of 18 Reasons and Civil Eats) about the unseen and largely unknown world of bacteria, a subject near and dear to FARMcurious. Moderator Dr. Daphne Miller, family physician and author of Farmacology and The Jungle Effect, kicked off the conversation by noting that it was only about 150 years ago that scientists first described these microorganisms and at that time the focus was on germs and eradication. It wasn't until 2007 and the launch of the Human Microbiome Project that we really… more

The maddest I remember being at my late wife (a Yankee lady, of Greek extraction and mercurial moods) was when she shouted, during a quarrel the origins of which are long lost, that I was "a dumb redneck." My heart dangerously palpitated, my eyes bugged, I ran in tight circles and howled inarticulate general profanities until, yes … my neck turned red. Literally. I felt the betraying hot flush as real as a cornfield tan. My wife collapsed in a mirthful heap, little knowing how truly close I felt to righteous killing.
Being called "dumb" wasn't what had excited me. No, for I judged myself ignorant only to the extent that mankind is and knew I was no special klutz. But being called a "redneck," now, especially when you know in your genes and in the dirty back roads of your mind that you are one—despite having spent years trying not to be—well, that just don't constitute fair fighting. I do not cherish Rednecks, which means I dislike certain persistent old parts of myself.
Of late the Redneck has been wildly romanticized; somehow he threatens to become a cultural hero. Perhaps this is because heroes are in short supply in these Watergate years, or maybe it's a manifestation of our urge to return to simpler times: to be free of computers, pollution, the urban tangle, morally bankrupt politicians, shortages of energy or materials or elbow room, and other modernist curses threatening to make our lives increasingly grim. Even George Wallace is "respectable" now, the news media boys tell us and tell us, having been semi-martyred by gunfire. Since 'Necks have long been identified with overt racism, we may be embracing them because we tired, in the Sixties, of bad niggers who spooked and threatened us and of laws busing our white children to slum schools; perhaps the revival is a backlash against hippies, peaceniks, weirdos of all stripes. Or the new worship of Redneckism may be no more than the clever manipulations of music and movie czars, ever on the lookout for profitable new crazes. Anyway, a lot of foolishness disguised as noble folklore is going down as the 'Neck is praised in song and story.
There are "good" people, yes, who might properly answer to the appellation "redneck": people who operate Mom-and-Pop stores or their lathes, dutifully pay their taxes, lend a helping hand to neighbors, love their country and their God and their dogs. But even among a high percentage of these salts-of-the-earth lives a terrible reluctance toward even modest passes at social justice, a suspicious regard of the mind as an instrument of worth, a view of the world extending little further than the ends of their noses, and only a vague notion that they are small quills writing a large history. They are often friendly in their associations and may sincerely believe themselves to accept "ever feller for what he is"; generally, however, they own more prejudices than a U-Haul could carry.
Not that these are always mindless. No, some value "common sense" or "horse sense" and in the basics may be less foolish than certain sophisticates or academicians. Some few may read Plato or Camus or otherwise astonish: it does not necessarily follow that he who is poor knows nothing or cares little. By the same token, you can make a lot of money and still be a Redneck in your bones, values, and attitudes. But largely, I think—even at the risk of being accused of elitism or class prejudice—the worse components of 'Neckery are found among the unlettered poor.
Attempts to deify the Redneck, to represent his life style as close to that of the noble savage are, at best, unreal and naive. For all their native wit—and sometimes they have keen senses of the absurd as applied to their daily lives—Rednecks generally are a sorry sad lot. They flounder in perilous financial waters and are mired in the socio-political shallows. Their lives are hard: long on work and short on money; full of vile bossmen, hounding creditors, quarrels, disappointments, confrontations, ignorance, a treadmill hopelessness. It may sound good on a country-western record when Tom T. Hall and Waylon Jennings lift their voices, baby, but it neither sounds nor feels good when life is real and the alarm clock's jarring jangle soon must be followed by the timeclock's tuneless bells. No, we need not perpetuate the Redneck myth. Indeed, our mudball ideally might show a net gain if it were possible not to perpetuate Rednecks themselves.
Now, the Rednecks I'm talking about are not those counterfeit numbers who hang around Austin digging the Cosmic Cowboy scene, sucking up to Jerry Jeff Walker and Willie Nelson, wearing bleached color-patched overalls and rolling their own dope, saying how they hanker to go live off the land and then stay six weeks in a Taos commune before flying back on daddy's credit card. Fie and a pox on such damn fakers; may such toy Rednecks choke on their own romantic pretensions.
No, and I'm not talking about Good Ole Boys. Do not, please, confuse the two; so many have. A Good Ole Boy is a Redneck who has acquired a smidgen or much more of polish; I could call him a "former Redneck" except that there ain't no such. One born a 'Neck of the true plastic-Jesus and pink-rubber-haircurlers-in-the-supermarket variety can no more shuck his key condition than may the Baptist who, once saved, becomes doctrinarily incapable of talking his way into Hell.
And here a warning against ersatz Good Ole Bys, too: those who find it advantageous to employ exaggerated country drawls, cracker-barrel observations, and instant histories of their raggedy-ass downtrodden childhoods. On investigation, however, these prove to have been no worse than the proletariat elite; probably they lived in a big white house on the hill with daddies who owned the region's biggest farm or the town gas works; their mommies belonged to bridge clubs or Book-of-the-Month or better. Lyndon B. Johnson was a fake Good Ole Boy; sometimes, when he's drunk, so

I am new to both sailing and being a sailboat owner. I just registered a 1975 Islands 17, yesterday!
I've been spending some time with a friend at Cooper River Yacht Club, learning the ropes (HAH!) and hope to soon become a member myself. My grandfather was a boat builder but ironically, our family never had a boat. I've spent my whole life longing for one and now finally in my 50's, I have two boats in my life. BF has a 17' motorboat that just got back in the water this past August after being a yard boat for 6 years. While I never had much interest in sailing, last summer on a whim I stopped in the yacht club in Brigantine and started asking questions. One of the members offered to take me out on his day sailer and I've been lusting after a sailboat ever since. Thanks to a very generous friend, now I have one. eeek!!

NEW YORK — The Los Angeles Dodgers are on track to become only the second major league team with a $200 million payroll and could end the New York Yankees' streak of 14 years as baseball's biggest spender.
The Dodgers are at $214.8 million for 21 signed players next season, according to a study of their contracts by The Associated Press. That follows last weekend's additions of free agent pitcher Zack Greinke for a $147 million, six-year contract and South Korean pitcher Ryu Hyun-jin for a $36 million, six-year deal.
Creating a lot of buzz, that's for sure, Greinke said. And you do wonder when things are going to stop.
Crediting the $3.9 million Boston is paying Los Angeles next year as part of last August's trade and not counting the portions of signing bonuses for players obtained from the Red Sox, the Dodgers' 2013 payroll currently is at $207.9 million.
The Yankees have led each year since the Baltimore Orioles edged them by $200,000 in 1998, and New York has been at $200 million-plus every season since 2005. The record opening-day payroll of $209.1 million was set by the Yankees in 2008.
I don't (know) that there's anybody that can keep up with what the Dodgers are doing, Arizona Diamondbacks general manager Kevin Towers said.
Los Angeles, almost certain to pay the luxury tax next year, has joined the high rollers since the Dodgers were bought in May by Mark Walter's group, which also includes Magic Johnson and Stan Kasten.
When we took over the team we said we were going to spend money and I guess you guys are seeing that we're trying to do that, Johnson said. We're not messing around. We're not talking about it, we're doing it.
Under outgoing owner Frank McCourt, they started the season with the 12th-highest payroll at $94.7 million. They boosted spending with the midseason acquisitions of Hanley Ramirez, Adrian Gonzalez, Josh Beckett, Carl Crawford and Brandon League.
The Dodgers finished 86-76 last season, eight games behind the eventual World Series champion San Francisco Giants in the NL West. Ryu gets a $5 million signing bonus, half due on April 1 and the rest on April 1, 2014.

MOHAWK VALLEY DIAMONDDAWGS 8, ALBANY DUTCHMEN 5, first game
MOHAWK VALLEY DIAMONDDAWGS 6, ALBANY DUTCHMEN 2, second game
The late-season surge continued Sunday for the Mohawk Valley DiamondDawgs who treated the crowd at Veterans Memorial Park to a pair of thrilling come-from-behind victories over the Albany Dutchmen.
The DiamondDawgs, winners of seven of nine games since they were eliminated from playoff contention, caught Albany in the win column by beating the Dutchmen 8-5 and 6-2. Albany had led 5-1 entering the bottom of the sixth inning in Game 1 and 2-0 in the middle of the fifth in Game 2. Among the beneficiaries of the DiamondDawgs' comebacks were pitchers Mike Fasolo and Mike Bradstreet, each of whom earned his first victory of the summer.
Michael Gunn started a seven-run rally in the first game with a triple leading off the sixth inning. Bret Gallihugh walked D.J. Hoagboon and was relieved on the mound by Tim Haley. Colin Monagle grounded into a force play at second base and the Dutchmen ere able to keep Gunn at third base on the play. Nic Spence followed with a ground ball to second base with the potential for an inning-ending double play. An errant throw to second base, however, left runners at first and second base as Gunn scored, still with one out. Haley then walked Hassan Evans and forced a run home with a free pass for Cullen Wacker.
Dave Soltis tied the game with a two-run single to right field that was punctuated by a loud explosion from the right field corner. An overinflated tire on a wheelbarrow exploded near the groundskeeper's shed as Evans crossed home plate and tied the game at 5. The noise caused a small commotion — and a small fire; a startled member of the grounds crew dropped a lit cigarette and caught some dead grass on fire. Head groundskeeper Bummer Jodway was able to extinguish the flames before the Little Falls Fire Department arrived at the scene.
Once the situation off the field had quieted and it was apparent that nobody had been hurt, play resumed and so did the rally. Bryan Bleakley singled past diving third baseman Jevonte Osterhout and drove Wacker home with the go-ahead run. George Hajjar and Hoagboon added run-scoring singles and a Mohawk Valley lineup that had produced two hits through five innings suddenly had eight runs and a lead on the scoreboard.
Gunn relieved Fasolo in the top of the seventh and notched his first save with a scoreless inning of work.
Fasolo, who entered the game with a 15.00 ERA, allowed two earned runs on eight hits through six innings. He struck out four batters and walked one.
Hajjar and Hoagboon each had two of the seven Mohawk Valley hits while Will Remillard and Andrew Deeds each had two for the Dutchmen. Hoagboon also drew two of the DiamondDawgs' 10 walks and reached base four times.
Page 2 of 3 - Bradstreet took the mound for his team-leading 20th appearance and third start in Game 2. Sporting an ERA of 6.02 entering the game, he tossed the DiamondDawgs' third complete game of the season and allowed just one earned run.
Despite Bradstreet's strong outing, the DiamondDawgs still trailed entering the fifth inning as Dutchman John Porter kept them off the scoreboard. Hajjar led off the fifth inning with a single, the third Mohawk Valley hit, and aggressive baserunning sparked a two-run rally to tie the game. Hajjar advanced to second base on a ground out by Gunn then stole third base. Catcher Ryan Welke's throw got by Remillard at third base and Hajjar dashed home with the Diamonddawgs' first run.
Hoagboon singled on the next pitch from Porter and did some aggressive running of his own. After nearly being picked off twice at first base, Hoagboon stole second. Porter whirled around and tried again to pick Hoagboon off at his new station but the throw sailed into center field. Hoagboon took off for third base and manager Troy Gerlach waived him around as the Dutchmen took their time retrieving the ball. Hoagboon scored standing up as Osterhout's relay throw flew over the head of Welke.
Bradstreet set the Dutchmen down in order in the top of the sixth and the DiamondDawgs went back to work offensively in the bottom of the inning. Porter had not walked a batter before issuing a free pass to Colin Monagle to start the sixth. Wacker bunted and a single by Soltis put runners on the corners with one out. The Dutchmen then botched another chance for a double play with shortstop Anthony Turgeon's throw pulling Osterhout off the bag as Monagle scored the go-ahead run. Hajjar followed with a double to right field to drive home another run.
Casey Wilson relieved Porter and inherited runners at second and third. Both scored when Gunn lined a single off Remillard's glove.
Wacker and Hajjar each had two hits in the second game. Osterhout and Steve Anderson had two hits for Albany.
The DiamondDawgs travel to Glens Falls for a game Monday then visit Albany Tuesday before finishing the season with a home game Wednesday against the Amsterdam Mohawks.

The middle of his order gave him plenty to start, and the White Sox defense kicked in a few more for good measure.
The American League's All-Star Game starter outdueled Chris Sale as the White Sox committed three errors and dropped the opener of a four-game series against the Detroit Tigers with a 7-3 loss at U.S. Cellular Field.

Sale (6-9) struck out 11 in a losing effort, and Alexei Ramirez made two costly errors as the White Sox dropped 14 games back of the first-place Tigers.
Timely hitting by both Prince Fielder and Victor Martinez put Detroit ahead for good.
Fielder's two-out bouncer through the right side in the third inning scored Torii Hunter to give the Tigers a 1-0 lead.
Two innings later, Sale intentionally walked Miguel Cabrera — who later left the game with a sore hip flexor muscle — and walked Fielder to load the bases. Detroit's rally began when Ramirez booted Hernan Perez's grounder to short to start the inning.

Sale got ahead of Martinez in the count but caught too much of the plate with a two-strike slider, and the Tigers' designated hitter singled up the middle to put his team ahead by three runs. Both fifth-inning runs were unearned.
Sale allowed another run in the seventh when Hunter homered to right. The left-hander allowed four runs (two earned) and seven hits over eight innings. It's the fifth time this season Sale has struck out at least 10 batters.
The White Sox, who didn't have a base runner reach against Scherzer (14-1) until the fifth inning, cut the lead to 3-1 on Dayan Viciedo's sixth-inning solo home run.

The White Sox got one more when Conor Gillaspie hit a solo homer against Scherzer, but it wasn't enough.
Scherzer allowed two earned runs and four hits with five strikeouts over eight innings.
Reliever Ramon Troncoso and Ramirez each committed an error in the ninth inning as the Tigers blew open a 4-2 game with three unearned runs. Five of the seven runs allowed by the White Sox were unearned.

Robbery at lotto outlet in Baguio puzzles cops
BAGUIO CITY—Police are investigating the robbery at a lotto outlet here on Feb. 28, with doubts raised that it may have been an attempt to cheat the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO).
Three men brandishing a revolver and a hand grenade took P1.2 million from the lotto outlet near a police outpost at the Dangwa bus station here.
One of the robbers wielded a revolver, a second brandished a hand grenade while a third ordered the outlet's cashier to fill up a bag that could fit a computer notebook.
The cashier claimed she gave the contents of a cashier's box amounting to P1.2 million, P5,000 in coins and a handgun, said Insp. Joseph Villaran, a Baguio police investigator.
But the outlet's manager said they make a daily gross of about P20,000 to P30,000, raising questions on whether it was robbery or a ruse to cheat the PCSO.
Supt. Jesus Cambay, Baguio police chief, said the robbery took place in the early afternoon, casting doubt as to how much money the outlet would have earned for the day.
He also said people in the neighborhood had told investigators that they noticed nothing unusual at the time of the robbery. Frank Cimatu, Inquirer Northern Luzon

Ole Miss puts Memphis away late, moves to 4-0
Memphis put a landmine in front of Ole Miss' path to a potential Top-10 showdown with Alabama next weekend. Ole Miss tiptoed around it. The 10th-ranked Rebels committed four turnovers and found themselves clinging to a 7-point lead early in the fourth quarter before finding the end zone twice in the final minutes to pull away for a 24-3 victory Saturday night in front of a crowd of 61,291 at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. (September 28, 2014, Page 1B)
NOTEBOOK: OM defense picks up offense with performance
With No. 10 ranked Ole Miss' offense sputtering for much of the game against Memphis, it was up to the Rebel defense to pick up the slack. They accomplished that and more in the 24-3 victory Saturday night over the upset-minded Tigers. (September 28, 2014, Page 1B)
Ole Miss NOTEBOOK: LBs Nkemdiche, Bryant productive in returns
NASHVILLE, Tenn.— The Ole Miss defense was back at full strength for the first time this season as it got two important pieces back in Saturday's 41-3 victory over the Vanderbilt Commodores. (September 7, 2014, Page 1B)
NOTEBOOK: Healthy Wallace wants to 'play within the offense'
Bo Wallace is confident in his healthy throwing shoulder. Maybe too confident. Last week's season opener against Boise State was the Ole Miss senior quarterback's first chance to display the renewed strength in his arm thanks to a shoulder that's finally back to 100 percent following a separation suffered during the 2012 season. Wallace admitted it got him into trouble at times. (September 2, 2014, Page 8)

COLUMN: Ole Miss defense passes eye test
ATLANTA- You had a good idea, but until you see it live, you just don't really know. Ole Miss' defense was the talk of fall camp.

Beggars, Berlin
4 Reviews
4 Reviews
As I stood close to the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedachtnis-Kirche I noticed a group of women stood around talking. They were joined a few minutes later by some men who started shouting at them; well they were stood around talking and should be getting to work. They decided whose turn it was to have the baby and who was going to get the crutch and accompanying limp. Have made these important decisions they then went on their way to accost passers by for money. If you are aware of this scam you will see it in numerous other countries.
I saw another group of these women at Checkpoint Charlie going around with boards. No matter what language you speak these ladies will always be able to communicate with you. Please remember these ladies are not poor and if you saw them arrive or leave they travel in style, in expensive vehicles. If you are tempted to give money it is far better to give it straight to a charity rather than lining the pockets of these gangs.
Everyone knows about the women with "babies" on their arms who walk around the tourist spots in Europe asking for money.It looked to me as if it was worse in Berlin this time. They tend to be all over the city, especially on Alexanderplatz. One of them got so close that I could see the "baby "was a doll.
The next morning we saw them standing at a large Mercedes van, where they got their instructions for the day. They were more aggressive than usual and kept coming up very close to the tourists.
I know these womes are under a lot of pressure themselves by their bosses in the background, especially as they are not allowed to keep the money.When you give them money, you finance the boss's next Mercedes.
Take care around the main Station Zoologischer Garten for beggars.
Budapester Strasse.
There is a police station near-by, but none the less be aware!
Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedachtnis-Kirche is nearby across the street.
The bus station and rail: U-Bahn and S-Bahn seem to bring them out because of the crowds;
better chance of getting money I would think. Watch your pockets and bags.
Just keep walking among others and don't talk to them.
Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedachtnis-Kirche and Zoo are worth visiting in this area.
Within the church you will find a Mosaic of the Hohenzollerns.
Mosaic Decoration are to be found and the church's history.
When riding the subway, at certain stops (it seemed usually near the Potsdamer Platz) a young man or woman may board the train with a stack of newspapers. They then go on to give usually a very loud speech about why they are there, what they are doing, etc. and at the end they ask for a small donation in exchange for one of their papers. They will then get off at the next station.
I'm not totally fluent at German, but the first time I saw this it sort of rattled me, but they are OK. A friend I was visiting with told me that it is actually a legitimate deal. Some of them are homeless and they get a share of the donations.
So if you encounter one (you will definitely be able to tell by the sometimes huge stacks of papers), it is OK to ignore them of course--it all depends on your comfort level and internal good sense. But just a friendly bit of advice--it is also OK to toss them a Euro cents coin or two.
The ones I encountered weren't pushy about it at all, and if they didn't get anything they left the train at the next station calmly and without incident.

iBook G4 and an external LCD monitor for mirroring
Hi Friends,
I have been using my iBook G4 with an external 17" CRT monitor for some time. The thing is huge and takes up too much space on my desk, but it works fine mirroring the 1024X768 resolution of my 14" iBook. My friend was getting rid of a 19" Dell LCD monitor and i picked it up.
To my dismay it optimizes at 1280X1024 resolution and as you all know the iBook is resolution challenged. I googled and read all over the web and eventually installed Screen Spanning Doctor 0.3.3. I was now able to set appropriate resolutions for the 2 monitors and even drag windows from one screen to the other - pretty cool. But it's not what i really wanted to do, so I found that there was a button to turn mirroring on and off in the SSD arrange window. When I turned this on and adjusted the resolution to the optimized setting for the LCD screen, I got a very nice image, but one reduced significantly from full screen size. There is an inch and a half of black around all 4 sides of the image. There is no control on the monitor to increase the overall image size (as there used to be on CRT monitors) so I am stuck. I tried searching around on the FAQ's of Screen Spanning Doctor to no avail and also searched on the web.
I am still searching. Any ideas?
I am running: OS 10.4.11 on iBook G4, 1.42GHz with 512MB
The monitor is a Dell E193FP and it optimizes at 1280X1024 at 60Hz

Opened in 1925, this wonderful restaurant in the posh Renaissance Vinoy Resort has frescoed ceilings and a spectacular view of Tampa Bay. Upscale and special-occasion diners are drawn to Marchand's by an imaginative menu, which changes often and has recently embraced a farm-to-table approach. You'll always see salmon and cornish game hen on the menu. More recent additions include gluten-free and veggie options, such as a squash and corn taco. For early birds, the 1925 menu (named for the year the hotel originally opened) offers a four-course meal for just—as you may have guessed—$19.25. Sushi is available Thursday through Saturday. The wine list is extensive, including a number of by-the-glass selections.
