8.6: The Reasons For Some Unusual Spellings of [t]
The Reasons For Some Unusual Spellings of [t]
1. So far you have worked with three spellings of [t]: <t>, , and <ed>.
The sound [t] is spelled one of these three ways more than ninety-nine times out of a hundred. And if you remember the places where occurs and remember that -ed is always a verb suffix, you should have little trouble knowing which spelling to use.
There are some other spellings of [t], though, that are very rare but still worth looking at:
2. [t] = <ght> in several words. Underline the letters that are spelling [t] in the following words:
Sort the words into the following four groups:
[i] spelled
or <ei>
<ai> or <ei>
3. The sound [t] is spelled <ght> only after spelled or <ei>, or after spelled <ai> or <ei>, or after [o] spelled <au> or <ou>.
4. [t] = <tw>. The sound [t] is spelled <tw> in only one word: two. Long ago two was pronounced . Several words related to two contain <tw>, and all contain the meaning "two." Answer Yes or No:
|Do you hear the <w>?
5. [t] = <bt>. The sound [t] is spelled <bt> in only three common words: debt, doubt, and subtle. All three came from Latin words, used a long time ago by the Romans. Our word debt comes from the Latin word debitum. Our word doubt comes from the Latin word dubitare. Our word subtle comes from the Latin word subtilis. In Latin both the and the <t> were pronounced in these words. But we would find [bt] difficult to pronounce, so we've simplified it to [t].
6. [t] = <cht>. Long ago the Dutch called a fast sailing ship a jaghte. The English borrowed the word and spelled it several different ways, including <yaught>. Back then the <gh> was pronounced with a sound a little like our [ch], so in time the <gh> spelling changed to <ch>. But then over the centuries people stopped pronouncing the <ch>, so we now have a word pronounced [yot] and spelled yacht. This is the only word we have in which [t] is spelled <cht>!
In words like two, doubt, and yacht we can see that when we spell, we do more than spell sounds. Our spelling also shows something about words' sources and their life stories. This can make spelling harder than it might be, but there is always some reason for the spellings we use — even if sometimes the reasons seem a little strange.
7. The sound [t] is spelled <ght> only after [i] spelled or <ei>, or after spelled <ai> or <ei>, or after [o] spelled <au> or <ou>. The word in which [t] is spelled <tw> is two. The three words in which [t] is spelled <bt> are debt, doubt, and subtle. The one word in which [t] is spelled <cht> is yacht.
Word Changes. Follow the instructions very carefully and then fill in the blanks to complete the sentence at the end:
- Write the word debt - debt
- Change the vowel from <e> to <ou>: - doubt
- Change the first consonant to the letter that comes two letters before it in the alphabet, and change the letter before the <t> to <gh>: - bought
- Change the first consonant to the letter that comes right after in the alphabet, and change the first vowel to the first letter of the alphabet: - taught
- Change the first consonant to the second consonant in the alphabet: - caught
- Change the first consonant to the next-to-last letter in the alphabet; delete the second vowel letter; and change the second consonant to the letter that comes four places before it in the alphabet: - yacht
The sailor went into when he a
Teaching Notes.
Item 2. In the words with [t] spelled <ght>, the <gh> at one time spelled the [ch]-like sound mentioned in Item 6, the sound heard at the end of the Scottish pronunciation of loch and the German pronunciation of Bach.. That specific sound disappeared from English, becoming [f] in words like laugh and rough and falling silent in words like high and sigh. It also fell silent before the sount [t], with the <gh> becoming part of the spelling of [t]. Some of the <ght> words in Item 2 are worth a special note:
aught. There are really two words spelled <aught>: One means "anything whatever," as in "For aught I know ...." The other, which has the variant form ought, means "zero, nothing." Ought meaning "should," as in "I ought to go now," is always spelled with an <o>.
naught, nought These are two variants of a word also meaning "nothing, zero."
Slight means "small, slender," and as a verb it means "to treat someone or something as unimportant." Sleight means "skill, craft," as in "sleight of hand." It is related to sly.
Lightning does not have an <e> in it. It was actually formed from lightening (lighten+ing), but the <e> was dropped , distinguishing it from the verb form lightening. The reason for dropping the <e> is not clear.
The following is a fairly complete list of the remaining words in which [t] is spelled <ght>: Bedight, dight, hight are all archaic, wight very nearly so:
Item 4. A good discussion question could be, <Why does the text say that all the words in the table contain the meaning "two"? Some are very straightforward: twice, twin. Others are slightly more subtle: between, twilight, twist, twine, twig. Twenty(twen+ty) means "two tens." Twelve (twe+lve) means "two left over (past ten)"; the fragment Ive is related to leave and left. (Eleven (e+leven) means "one left over"; the fragment e echoes Old English n "one.") All of these words contain the descendant of an ancient Indo-European root, *dwo-, which meant "two."
Item 5. All three of these words were in Middle English usually spelled without the . The 's were added in the or centuries, because of the 's in the Latin source words.
Item 6. The "sound a little like our [ch]" is the sound you hear at the end of the Scottish pronunciation of loch and the German pronunciation of Bach.
After the very predictable major spellings <t>, , and <ed>, the spelling of [t] is complcated by a number of different minor spellings like the four discussed in the lesson. Here are some others that you may or may not want to discuss with the students:
1. [t] = [dt] in veldt, which comes from South African Afrikaans, and finally from the Dutch word veldt "field." Veldt has a variant spelling veld, in which we would have to say that [t] = <d>.
2. [t] = <ct>. The only stem word in which [t] is spelled <ct> is indict, as in indictment. Indict has always been pronounced much as it is today: [indt]. It used to be spelled <indite>, which fit the pronunciation better. But people came to feel that its base should be dict, the same as that in predict and dictate, to reflect its Latin source, indictre. They changed the spelling to <indict>, but they didn't change the pronunciation. The earlier spelling <indite> still lives in the related word indite, "to compose or write, especially poetry." Dictionaries show a [kt] in adjective, though in rapid speech it probably sounds more like [ædjətiv], with [t] spelled <ct>. Notice that <ct> is usually [kt]: affect, collect, electric, etc.
3. [t] = <th> in Thomas, Thames, and thyme. For more on the [t]-[th] confusion in earlier English, see AES, p. 343.
4. [t] = <pt> in receipt and in words that contain or were taken to contain the Greek base pter "wing": pterodactyl, pterosaur, ptarmigan. (In helicopter the syllable division leads to [pt] rather than [t].) The <pt> spelling also occurs in ptomaine, the base of which ptom, descends from the Greek word ptoma "corpse.". In Middle English receipt was usually spelled without the , but after the century the became standard because of its presence in the Latin source word, recepta. It is related to conceit and deceit, which did not reintroduce the .
For more on the minor spellings of [t] see AES, pp. 343-46.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) - Arkansas' Sen. Mark Pryor, D, is working with a Central Arkansas Boy Scout troop to help Oklahoma tornado victims.
Troop 99 spentFriday at War Memorial stadium collecting supplies for crews working on cleaning up the debris.
One of the troops' members used to live in Moore, Oklahoma, where the deadly twister hit on Monday.
Pryor said it's important for Arkansans to help their neighbors and for children to learn about volunteering.
"These people (in Oklahoma) need the help now," Pryor said. "If we need to come up with some more money, let's do it. We'll figure out that on the back end. But they need the help right now."
Some items that are needed to help tornado victims include shovels, water hoses, rakes, and gloves.
The scouts will continue to collect items at War Memorial stadium through Saturday.

All colleges offer student orientation as a way for new students to get to know their school. The University of Michigan-Flint Outreach is adding a new community orientation program-a unique way for new and current students, faculty, and staff to better know Flint. Called MY FLINT, the program will kick off with tours of the downtown and local restaurants. A few days later, MY FLINT will explore all that the Flint Cultural Center has to offer. Another portion of the program will examine the question: Did you know that Flint enjoys more public green space than most cities in our country? Students will actually use parking spaces in the downtown to build mini parks.
One of Flint's rediscovered resources that flows through the campus, the Flint River, will be explored in a number of ways by students. The MY FLINT program will provide canoes for students to paddle, bikes for the trail along the river, and encouragement for others to walk along this beautiful resource.
September 9-Wednesday: 4 pm start from University Center for the downtown tour.
September 11-Friday: 11:30 am meet at theatre to start tour of Cultural Center.
September 18-Friday: 10 am Park Day construction begins in downtown
September 25-Friday: 10 am at Rec Center to begin Flint River tour.
UM-Flint faculty will be invited to join a special orientation session entitled COMMUNITY EXCHANGE on October 3rd. A staff orientation will be held on October 9th.

The tunes from the midway jingle, the laughs of the children enjoying themselves echo and the engines on the dirt track roar. But there may not be another sound more synonymous with the evening festivities at Madison County Fair than the distinctive voice of grandstand public address announcer Denver Geitgey.
The marquee event of the night Wednesday, July 9, was the National Tractor Puller's Association Region II Championship Tractor Pull and the voice of the fair was again on the mic.
Geitgey, a resident of Grand Rapids, Ohio which is roughly 15 miles West of Bowling Green, speaks with a warm Southern draw and is every bit informative as he is entertaining during his four hours of the tractor pull.
"You have to be entertaining and have a knowledge of the pullers," Geitgey said. "But you have to be personal with the people too because they want to be a part of what we do. We can't get up and close and personal with them because of the distance and safety factor, but its my job to bridge the gap bewteen the puller and the spectators. They all want to be a part of the action."
A few minutes of listening to his voice and you can instantly tell he enjoys what he's doing. That may be why its not unusual for him to trek across the state of Ohio or even to other states to call a truck or tractor pull.
"It's a lot of fun, it's nothing to drive two or three hours to go to a pull for four, five, six hours," Geitgey said. "We've been to North Carolina and West Virgina and all across Ohio this summer and will be in Texas in October."
It's one thing to have the vocal ability to speak in a way that's entertaining, but being able to educate the crowd on what exactly they're watching and what's happening on the track takes skill. Whether it's telling a story about a competitor or dropping critical knowledge of why something is happening, Geitgey is in his comfort zone. The professional announcer, as it says on his business card, is constantly honing his craft.
"I started doing this at the local county fair in the show arena," Geitgey said. "They asked me to do the local fair pull about 10 years ago and it just kind of went from there. I was in the auction business and kind of got into this. It's been a great, great adventure."
He sees tons of races and different trucks and tractors, but don't ask him what vehicles and classes he likes the best.
"I don't have a favorite class, I like them all," he said. "What I like about the tractor pull though in general is the camraderie. The people, the places you go and the fairgoers treat us like kings and queens. It's just an amazing thing. Actually when we're off and not working, we feel like we have to go to a truck or tractor pull."
Mount Sterling resident Dru Gilliland competed in the Light Pro Stock Class Wednesday and registered a pull of 317.697 feet. He was driving his tractor named 'Load The Wagon.'
You have to learn how to get these guys down the track, but you've got to listen to what else is going on around you.

Muslims 'Under Attack,' Says Toledo Mosque Official After Arson
Muslims and their places of worship "are clearly under attack," says the president of one of the country's largest mosques, which was heavily damaged four days ago in an arson fire.
"We're actually reeling in disbelief," Dr. Mahjabeen Islam, president of the Islamic Center of Toledo in Ohio, told Hatewatch today in describing the devastation caused by a fire deliberately set in the mosque's prayer area on Sunday afternoon, just minutes after worshippers had left the building.
"This is a hate crime and it's very significant it was started in the center of the prayer area, right under the dome," said Islam. The mosque she heads is the third largest in the United States, a 70,000-square foot landmark, visible for miles, with 3,000 members who will celebrate the center's 32nd anniversary on Friday.

'Race Realist' Speaks at Towson University Without Incident
In the end, despite a lot of anticipatory huffing and puffing by backers and their far more numerous opponents, the event was a low-key one. The controversial "race realist" Jared Taylor — a man who has argued that black people are incapable of sustaining civilization — spoke without incident in the Baltimore suburbs Tuesday evening at the request of far-right student activist Matthew Heimbach.

A Burning Question: Is Heterosexuality Illegal in California?
The headline is sensational and does what headlines are supposed to do – it grabs your attention:
"California Bans Heterosexuality."
After my initial shock, I settled down and read the story under the headline and quickly learned, to my great relief, that the Golden State hasn't really banned heterosexuality – at least not yet. ( continue to full post… )
Texas 'Sovereign' Charged in Murder-for-Hire Scheme Targeting Judge
If you can't beat them in court, kill them in the street.
At least that seems to have been the legal strategy of an elderly Texas tax protester and suspected "sovereign citizen," who authorities charged Monday with trying to hire a hit man to kill the federal judge presiding over his upcoming trial for filing false tax returns.
Phillip Monroe Ballard, 71, was already in federal custody, awaiting trial, when, authorities say, he offered to pay an assassin $100,000 cash – presumably tax-free – to shoot or blow up U.S. District Judge John McBryde of the Northern District of Texas. ( continue to full post… )
Federal Judge Rules RuSA President a Flight Risk, Denies Bail
A federal judge on Monday determined that James Timothy Turner, the self-declared president of the nation's largest antigovernment "sovereign citizen" group, was a flight risk and ordered him held until his trial next year. Turner is the founder of the Republic for the united States of America (RuSA), an intricately organized network of supporters united in their complete disdain for the government.
Shackled at the wrists and ankles and wearing a crimson jumpsuit emblazoned with the words "COUNTY JAIL," Turner, of Ozark, Ala., pleaded not guilty to seven charges of federal tax crimes, including efforts to defraud the federal government and skipping out on his tax liabilities in 2009.

Hammerfest Racist Rock Festival Planned for Boise on Saturday
The annual neo-Nazi skinhead rock concert known as Hammerfest will be held this Saturday in or near Boise, Idaho, where authorities say they are worried about the potential for violence at or after the event.
Hammerskin Nation, one of the largest and most-dangerous neo-Nazi skinhead groups in the United States, is sponsoring the 25th annual gathering after patching up differences with a former rival, the equally violent Vinlanders Social Club. ( continue to full post… )
Student Group at Towson University to Host White Nationalist Tomorrow
Anyone wondering what the future of organized hate might look like need cast their eyes no further than Matthew Heimbach, the outspoken and energetic former president of Youth for Western Civilization's (YWC) erstwhile chapter at Towson University in Maryland and the aspiring leader of its newly proposed but as yet unsanctioned White Student Union. Heimbach's YWC group was disbanded last year when its faculty advisor withdrew after members chalked white pride slogans on sidewalks. Now a senior at Towson, Heimbach has threatened to take the university to court if his new organization is not approved.
"Free speech advocates in Maryland are supporting our case and agree that University policies are at best in the gray or worst outright unconstitutional," he told The Towerlight, the Towson student newspaper. "Our message will not be silenced, we have the right to meet. If the University decides to overstep their legal boundaries … then they will meet definitive, quick action."
And to highlight the first planned first meeting of his White Student Union, set for tomorrow, Heimbach has invited his "personal hero," a white nationalist writer named Jared Taylor who once wrote, "When blacks are left entirely to their own devices, Western civilization — any kind of civilization — disappears."

Learning FrenchSeptember 5th, 2011
I'm going to France for the next two weeks and thought it would be good to try to learn some of the language. When I was a kid, I had three years of French instruction in school, but it was by far my worst subject.
I got some French language instruction CD's, which I am listening to in my car as I commute. They're called "Michel Thomas Method French for Beginners". I was afraid that these would be just as boring. In fact, they're great fun to listen to and practice with.
The format is that there's a French man teaching two students. After teaching a few words and a bit of grammar, he gives them a sentence to say, and I can try to formulate it before they do (or pause the CD), and then I get the immediate feedback.
When I was a kid learning French in school, we had to recite conjugations ("er", "ir", and "re" verbs, in many tenses), which was totally boring. Well, it turns out that you can say a whole lot of useful stuff without any of that. You can just use infinitives for all kinds of things ("je voudari manger"). So you only need to learn the present-tense conjugations of a few verbs and you can say all kinds of useful things.
And you don't need to use the future tense at all, since, just as in English you can say "I am going to eat", in French you can say literally the same thing, "je vais manger". Cool.
Now, whether I'll be able to construct sentences on the fly while someone is standing there waiting for me and evaluating whether I'm right, is another question. I can easily imagine myself being embarrassed; maybe under pressure I'll forget it all.
Also, whether I can understand what's spoken to me is yet another issue.
I downloaded some French-English apps for the Android phone, but so far haven't found any free apps better than Google's own Translate. I'd rather have one that doesn't depend on network access, though. I'm still looking.
Anyway, doing this is fun, which is perhaps what really matters. So if you had the same negative language-learning experience as I did, try out doing it this way.

Re: Mass Effect (PC) Feedback Thread
only 10 bucks on steam. I never played this game, still worth it? How long does it take to beat? I'm not looking for an enormous game, but hows it compare to say Fallout 3?
I would think after 28 pages here, you should already have enough info to decide if you want this game or not.
One person is going to tell you yeah and other will tell you no. That's the way it's going to be with every single game if you are going to ask someone if you should get it or not.
IMO, this game ranks up there with the best of them and I don't regret paying $50 for it when it first came out, let alone $10. But, that's all this is, is an opinion. Doesn't mean you will like it (or anyone else). Depends what kind of games you like, how much you enjoy playing them, and how much money you are willing to invest in them.

|I get the same but I can scroll past it if I keep going. I think it's just a horrendous design decision rather than a bug.
That Last of Us advert on the mobile site needs to fuck off and die.
I already have it preordered but very tempted to cancel. The power of advertising indeed
Bug or feature?
Is the fact that you can't administer existing groups or create new ones an official decision based on the fact that EG regrets ever creating them, or is this something that accidentally broke at the last update that we can expect to be fixed at some point?
Can't go on the EG mobile site atm because the login screen won't go away. Closed the browser, turned off and on the phone, still there. I can still post, and tapping the top right icon shows me as logged in, but I can't see half the page because the login screen is there and can't be moved.
Anyone else?

The 180s terrify me. It's my tripping stone, my stumbling block. It's where I f*ck up. I've only been past the 180s once, and that was back in 2006. The times after that have been unsuccessful. I usually reach about the low 180s, and then I start reverting back to old habits. Even though the 170s are so close, I can never push through and taste victory. I give in and let all my hard work go to waste.
I stop branching out and trying new things. I stop inspiring myself. I stop trying to get better, stronger, and faster. I stop incorporating new exercises and activities. I get tired and lose motivation because the light at the end of the tunnel isn't getting any brighter or closer. I usually feel like my efforts have been in vain because I'm not at goal weight. I lose sight of all the hard work I've put in. Instead of focusing on the process, I only concentrate on the results.
I want my chocolate, my ice cream, my cookies, my cupcakes, my frosting, my cakes, my country fried steak, my carne asada cheese fries. I get fed up with my "diet" and eventually, my mind caves in. I will have one meal where I eat everything imaginable. Then I feel bad. So I have another meal where I eat everything in sight. And pretty soon, I'm back up to the 200s. I let guilt consume me. I let one day dictate a few months' decisions. Instead of realizing that it's just one freaking meal, I blow it out of proportion and think it's the end of the world. It's really not that big of a deal, but I forget that.
I want to see the pounds drop off. I want to get to the 170s. And when it doesn't happen, I start freaking out. Everything becomes about the number. Why is it not working? What am I doing wrong? Why can't I lose faster? I start losing motivation because, instead of being concerned with baby steps, I focus on taking gigantic leaps. I forget that many baby steps lead up to one huge leap.
But it's different now…
I love what I'm doing, but I incorporate new activities all the time. I love running, but running one mile isn't exciting for me any more. I will still aim for the 8:30 mile but I don't get the same thrill from running one mile as I used to. There's bigger, better fish in the ocean to go after. There's the 10K, the Half Marathon, a FULL marathon, trail races, Ultramarathons, mud runs, Warrior Dash. The possibilities are endless. There are SO many things out there to train for. You can always be better.
I want to complete a triathlon. I've been researching road bikes. I've been cycling on the stationary bike, but that's not enough. I'm mustering up enough courage to get in a swim suit and hop in the pool. It's coming. Monday.
I love weight lifting, and when compared to Day One , my workouts are extremely different now. I am lifting heavier. I am super and triple setting. I am using the bosu ball. I am doing push-ups. Assisted pull-ups. Deadlifts. I will start incorporating tabata as well as CrossFit exercises.
I read. I research. I watch youtube videos. I look at other people's training logs. I watch the CrossFit exercise demos and replicate it at home with some light household objects, like a broom, before I attempt it at the gym. I focus on form. And I continuously increase my weights. If I can bench 80 pounds today, I will try 85 pounds the next time. If I can do an assisted pull-up with 100-pounds counter, I will try with 90-pounds next time.
By not being repetitive with my exercises, I am challenging myself on a daily basis and that's what keeps me inspired. I can see and feel improvement on a small scale, which distracts me from focusing only on the big picture.
There's nothing I can't have. By refusing to have an "off-limits" list, I just eat what I want, when I want. I bought myself yogurt-covered raisins yesterday from Trader Joe's and they are heavenly. I thoroughly enjoyed every single piece. Guilt-free eating has liberated me mentally. I don't feel bad for eating. I don't feel the need to punish myself, physically or emotionally, for any food-related decisions. Punishing myself got me nowhere. It got me to 263 pounds. I'm loving myself this time.
I realize that I can cook just about every and anything. I can make carne asada cheese fries. I can make pasta, pizza, chicken nuggets, burgers. You name it. My taste buds are no longer slave to the fast food industry or restaurants. What they can make, I can too. It doesn't take talent, only dedication and practice. I learned to enjoy cooking. I find it fun to alter recipes and add my own twist to familiar dishes. I love finding new things to try. I am constantly writing down vegetables that I've never had before. Brussels sprouts. Fiddleheads. Ramps.
I stalk Foodgawker every day, but instead of being jealous of what other people are eating, I just make my own version later. I have finally developed a balanced, loving relationship with food. It's no longer my enemy. It's a loving friend who wants to nourish me, mentally and physically.
I am more than just a number. The 180s don't define what I can do. If I keep working at it, I know the pounds will come off. It's only a matter of time, and I'm not too concerned with how long it'll take because I know it's a lifelong journey. What's one year in the grand scheme of things?
Just because the 180s tripped me up in the past doesn't mean I will let it hinder me again. I am more disciplined, more determined, and simply much better than that. I am not going to let the 180s become my tripping stone again. I will keep working hard. I will continue to strive to be better.
I won't give up. I've come too far already to call it quits.
What is your tripping stone?

Low-budget Christian movie has big message
CORPUS CHRISTI - Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Ga., has become known for producing stellar films that successfully convey a godly message as well as entertain.
Its movies have grossed millions of dollars and attracted large audiences, proving to Hollywood along with "Passion of the Christ" that there is money to be made in Christian filmmaking.
But before there was "Facing the Giants" or "Fireproof," starring Christian actor and former heartthrob Kirk Cameron, or the upcoming "Courageous," slated for release in September, there was "Flywheel," a low-budget flick about a man facing a moral turning point.
Released in 2003 by Sherwood Pictures, "Flywheel" is the first movie Sherwood Baptist Church made, and although it has been overshadowed by the big studio polish of the films that followed it, I highly recommend it because it still resonates.
In it, Jay Austin (played by director and co-producer Alex Kendrick) is a slick used car salesman with a line and a lie for any unsuspecting buyer.
Backed by employees he has trained to smoothly manipulate customers, Jay has become a man whose priorities are desperately out of whack. His relationship with his wife and young son is strained to the point of nonexistence and he has become so caught up with appearances that he sees nothing wrong with pretending to tithe by putting an empty envelope in the church collection plate.
But when he stiffs his own pastor on a car deal, Jay's manipulating starts to catch up with him. Realizing his deceptions have lost him the respect of his family, Jay takes a long, hard look at himself and doesn't like what he sees. The movie takes a sharp turn as Jay sets out to win back the hearts of his family and the community he cheated.
I used to scoff at Christian films that despite their messages of good intent, contained cheesy, poorly written dialogue and laughably bad acting. "Flywheel" proves that a low-budget Christian movie can be good. It is a beautiful film with a message that is relevant to anyone, not only Christians.
There is a little of Jay Austin in all of us. His inner battles with pride and hypocrisy are relatable. He is a real guy who isn't portrayed as a perfect Christian — because there is no such thing — but as someone who faces his faults and recognizes he can't do it all on his own, and that struck close to home.
Jay's shortcomings compelled me to reassess my own and ask, "In what areas am I falling short? How can I do better?" That's what makes "Flywheel," along with its humor, depth and sincerity, so touching. It stirs you up in a good way by inadvertently turning the mirror of its characters back onto you so you can take a good, hard look at yourself.
I have to admit, I don't always like what I see, but with God's help, I strive to do better.

The Logan County Commission had a busy agenda Monday, including requests from several organizations, Governor's Community Participation Grants and routine reports.
Phillip Vance with the Logan County Schools FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robitics Team 337, requested assistance with expenses for the team to compete in the upcoming national competition to be held April 17-19 at the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis, Mo. The team placed first in two regional competitions to earn their opportunity to compete at the national competition.The commission unanimously approved $2,500.
Jeremy Farley, WVU Extension Agent, requested the commission contribute to assist with the annual 4-H Camp at Logan. The commission approved $5,000 to support the camp.
Commission President Danny Godby commended Farley for his work with the children and questioned Farley about the other important program he works with, Energy Express.
Energy Express is an award-winning, eight-week, summer reading and nutrition program for children living in West Virginia's rural and low-income communities. Farley estimates the program will help approximately 500 children this summer.
Logan Mayor Serafino Nolletti requested and received approval for $2,000 to assist in the city's participation in the annual Logan County Community Fish Fry. Mayor Nolletti also received approval for $5,000 in support of the annual Freedom Festival.
Donnie Ooten requested and received approval for $1,000 to assist with expenses for the Chapmanville High School Girls Softball Tournament.
The commission received four grants from the West Virginia Development Office, Governor's Community Participation Grants.
The grants were for: the Cal Ripkin Baseball League, which received $1,000 to upgrade their field; Logan-Mingo Area Mental Health received $5,000 toward the purchase of a vehicle; the adult 4-H received $1,000 and Pickin' in the Park received $10,000 for a sound system.
W.Va. State Senators Art Kirkendoll and Ron Stollings worked together and each gave $5,000 from their budgets for the sound system. Sen. Kirkendoll said there would be more money coming into the area later on.
Code Enforcement Officer Ray Perry, who also volunteers his time at Pickin in the Park said the sound system was installed at the Pickin' in the Park building located at Chief Logan State Park. He says the system is easily administered and can be moved to accomodate other county requests. Perry says the system was used at the Coalfield Jamboree for the recent Little Mermaid production by Logan County Schools.
Perry expressed his thanks, "On behalf of everybody at Pickin' in the Park, I want to thank everyone for their support. Attendance has grown over the past four years and the performers are not just local. Visitors who come every week come from all over too. There is no admission charge and there is music for everyone to come and enjoy from 6-11 p.m., every Friday and Saturday night."
The commission approved an outlay request for the Logan County Airport for the previously approved AWOS installation, which will allow pilots to file flight plans to Logan from anywhere. The system will be up and running in an estimated three weeks.
Routine reports from county departments were accepted and the meeting was adjourned.
The next meeting of the Logan County Commission will be on April 28, 2014, at 3 p.m.

Prepare new varieties of food and alcoholic beverages
VIJAYAWADA: Aromas of various kinds wafted through the air in the spacious kitchen as youngsters in groups busily spent time preparing 'exclusive' dishes. Clad in black uniforms with white aprons, they carefully mixed the required ingredients for the recipes while controlling the flame level.
The occasion was the 'Budding Chef and Bartending Competition-2007,' organised by the Department of Tourism and Hospitality Management of Acharya Nagarjuna University in association with the Westin College of Hotel Management and Hotel Fortune Murali Park.
Students of four colleges – the city-based Westin and CMTES and Hyderabad-based Institute of Hotel Management and Regency College of Hotel Management - participated in the competitions aimed at inculcating competitive spirit among students.
"A chef can work anywhere, anytime. Our focus should be on the recipe and other issues can't come into our mind while doing our job," said Anil Rawath, a student of the Institute of Hotel Management, Hyderabad. Along with his friend Arpit, Rawath prepared 'Selam Fish' and a dessert simultaneously. It took 45 minutes for the duo to complete the job.
"We spent over 90 minutes to prepare a new chicken variety.
It came out well and we're planning to give it a different name," said Srinivas Naik and Durga Reddy of Westin College.
Ravi, a nutritionist from Talwalkar's Fitness Centre, monitored the cookery skills of the participants and presented a report with his remarks. The students brought their dishes to Hotel Fortune Murali Park, where the judges were waiting to taste them all and give their judgment.
Dress code
The scene was quite different at the bar of Hotel Fortune Murali Park, where the students competed for the bartending competition. It was all about mixing and serving alcoholic drinks at a bar and the participants took extra care about their dress code and body language. They tried new combinations like pepper vodka and shown them to the judges.
Acharya Nagarjuna University Vice-Chancellor V. Balamohandas lauded the competitive spirit among students and distributed prizes to the winners of the competition. University College principal K. Durga Prasad and others were present.

I have an old pair of these shoes and I used to love them. I'd like to buy a bigger size, but I can't figure out the size of the pair I have. There is an 03 stamped inside, but that is all the markings I can find. If they are between 21 and 22 cm long, about what size would that probably be?
If you remember the vendor you purchased them from maybe you can call and see if they have a record for you?

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – The Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach will be business as usual when the IndyCar circuit returns April 13. Same course, same hospitable weather, same large crowds.
But change is very much in the air for the race series in general, which begins Sunday in Florida.
Target Chip Ganassi Racing has lost a legend, Dario Franchitti, and gained the reigning Indy 500 champion.
Juan Pablo Montoya is back in IndyCar after seven years in NASCAR. Will Power is looking for redemption after an off-season. And Sebastien Bourdais, a four-time winner in Long Beach, is fixated on a return to the winner's circle.
Much has changed for Scott Dixon since he wrapped up his third IndyCar championship five months ago in Fontana.
Ganassi Racing's offseason move to Chevrolet has given Dixon a new engine for the year, but he heads into Sunday's season-opener without longtime teammate Dario Franchitti alongside him for the first time in six years.
Franchitti was forced to retire because of injuries suffered in an October crash in Houston, and he's been replaced in the Target lineup by Indianapolis 500 winner Tony Kanaan.
Dixon and Franchitti were a fearsome duo for five seasons. The two combined for four championships, 29 victories and two Indianapolis 500 wins for Franchitti.
Franchitti has taken a role as a driver coach with the Ganassi organization.
"It is a big loss, not just for myself, but I think for the team and also for the series," Dixon said. "The positive side is that he's still going to be involved with the team. He's obviously very talented. He's won a lot of races, achieved many things. But when it comes down to the engineering side of it, his approach to a race weekend, I think it is something that will be missed a little bit. Hopefully with his involvement we can keep that going."
Dixon doesn't seem concerned that his red No. 9 Target team will be any less formidable without Franchitti in the red No. 10.
"I think TK is a great driver, he's won a championship, he's won many races," Dixon said. "He may be stronger in other areas and maybe a little weaker in others. I think with the team combination, drivers and engineering, we can try to bring that back together and make it a strong 1-2 punch."
The landscape of the series will be a bit different now that Montoya has returned to open wheel. Once a regular in the Ganassi organization, Montoya is now with Team Penske and determined to win races again.
He was part of the 2013 winning Ganassi car at the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona, but that was Montoya's only victory since 2010.
The Penske team is strong with Montoya joining the lineup of three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves and annual contender Power.

Tips For Compound, Polish & Wax

Thanks for the great job of documenting this process and sharing it. I have done a scaled down version of this twice now (the last two consecutive Springs) with pretty poor results. I am using some of the right materials but I need to upgrade my buffer and take more steps. In my last attempt, I cleaned the hull with some (probably inefective) Greased Lightning spray cleaner, compounded the hull with 3m heavy duty compound (using a cheap buffer with a cheap wool pad), applied Finesse 2 with a cotton rag, waxed with Collenite 885 and hand buffed with a microfiber. I'm getting some of it right but I'm very unhappy with the results. At this point, I'm just wanting to protect the hull from further oxidation till next Fall (the boat - a 1881 Islander - goes back in the water soon) when I can do a more correct and thurough job.
After reading your original post again, I do have a couple areas that are unclear to me.
1. Pre-cleaning. I think this was my first big failing. I have read about using MEK, Tourlene, dish soap, etc. You suggest on/off. I have all these products but I'm still a little confused about what is for what. I want to remove Wax and imbeded dirt.
2. Getting a shine. I don't think I'm removing enough. The compounding seems to go pretty well but when I wipe it off, there is still little shine. I'll try wet sanding first next time. However, what ever I do get with the compound, when I follow it up with Finesse, the finish gets worse. I have basically stopped using Finesse because of this.
Thanks again,

Phoenix Suns
Kempton: Gentry handling Michael Beasley the right way
The Phoenix Suns may have to realize their prominent free agent acquisition was a bust, but they haven't done so yet.
The Suns signed Michael Beasley to a three-year, $18 million contract and was viewed as a reclamation project for team management and head coach Alvin Gentry. Thus far, Beasley has proven to be just that -- a work in progress.
Suns' color analyst Tim Kempton praised Gentry for his usage of Beasley and knowing when it's time to sit him.
"They are getting him plenty of shots, they expect him to shoot the ball and be involved in the offense," Kempton told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf Show Thursday. "But Alvin Gentry's been very clear if you're not performing well that night we can't have you on the floor because we don't have that luxury."
Beasley's struggled mightily to find consistency on the floor. In fact, the Suns have often fared better this season with their small forward on the bench, and as a result he's seen his playing time decrease.
Kempton said Gentry understands if Beasley's off one night, the Suns can ill afford to have him out on the court.
"We don't have the luxury of putting someone like a Michael Beasley out there to be unproductive for this team to win."
The 23-year-old has averaged 11.1 points and 3.9 rebounds in 26.3 minutes this season.

If you told me several years ago that I would be covering the federal government - speaking to cabinet level secretaries and three-star generals - I wouldn't have believed you. Never did I imagine that the federal space could be so interesting. And never did I fully appreciate the importance of agencies and contractors. But Federal News Radio changed all that.
I joined the staff in April of 2008. My job as an associate producer was to book guests, write scripts and edit audio for our morning and afternoon shows.
Later that year, I took on the full-time responsibility of running Federal News Radio's morning-drive program, called then The Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Jane Norris, waking up weekday mornings at 2 a.m.
The job was a whole lot more than just pushing buttons. Think multitasking to the max: working the phones, scanning the news wires, editing audio, writing scripts and pushing a thousand buttons all at once. The satisfaction of a show well done and knowing that we delivered usable news to our listeners drove me to do it over and over again.
Today I wake up with the sun, coordinating interviews for the Federal Drive and working with our other producers to find original, engaging content. I also write for our website and craft stories for the radio.
Before coming to Washington, I lived in Columbus, Oh. There, I worked as a business analyst for a credit bureau. The job allowed me to hone my writing skills and understand complicated technical material. But journalism - the pursuit of important information and telling people about it - always beckoned me.
I earned my bachelor's degree in journalism from the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland. While in school, I had a chance to work in TV news as a reporter and anchor for the university's Capital News Service. But the idea of joining the media world as a full-time professional was hatched in Guam - a tiny U.S. territory in the Pacific just three hours by plane from Tokyo.
In Guam I took my first job in radio, working with a staff of just five. I was not a reporter, but I recall venturing onto the midnight black streets "looking for news" just minutes after a 7.0 magnitude temblor rocked the island. From then on, many more earthquakes and several typhoons called me onto the streets in search of the next "big" story that I could share with everyone. I became more certain than ever that broadcast news was my career of choice.
Today, I enjoy sampling restaurants and exploring nature with my lovely wife and daughter. On the weekends, we like to venture south to visit our amazing extended family. And when we're not traveling, we like to walk, eat smoothies and take pictures of just about anything.

Vanderbilt fans can now live vicariously through the Saint Mary's Gaels. Omar Samhan dominated throughout to help upset 2-seed Villanova 75-68. Samhan scored 32 points on an extremely efficient 13-for-16 shooting day. If your brackets weren't messed up enough already, they surely are now.
Saint Mary's has a very good shot at the Elite Eight, playing the winner of Baylor-Old Dominion.
The Commodores handed the Gaels their first loss of the season in late November. Vanderbilt played the game on their way to the Maui Classic.
I guess its time for Vanderbilt fans to pull for Missouri, Murray State, and the Gaels. That's better than nothing.
