Six student-athletes earn spots on fall team for maximum third time
NORTH DARTMOUTH, Mass. -- Eastern Connecticut State University finished atop the list when the Little East Conference office released the 2010 All-Academic team for the fall season.
At left: Rachel Cocola
.Thirty-one of the 186 student-athletes honored were members of Eastern's six fall intercollegiate teams - two more than runner-up Keene State College and three more than the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. Keene also sponsored six intercollegiate teams in the fall while UMass Dartmouth fielded teams in all seven Little East falls sports.
Thirteen members of the Eastern cross country program (seven men and six women) earned all-academic distinction, with seven coming from the women's soccer team, four from men's soccer and women's volleyball and three from the field hockey program.
To earn a spot on the all-academic teams a student-athlete must be at least a sophomore academically and athletically, have a cumulative grade point average of 3.3, and be a full-time member of a varsity team.
Earning LEC fall academic honors for the maximum third times in their careers were
six seniors: Amanda Ericson (Bolton) and Ashlee James (Franklin) from the women's cross country program, Rachel Cocola (South Windsor) from field hockey, Stephanie Norell (Stratford) and Lauren Hickey (Southwick, MA) from women's soccer, and Christina Schirone (Pelham, NY) from women's volleyball.
The conference sponsors falls championships in the sports of men's and women's cross country, men's and women's soccer, field hockey, women's volleyball and women's tennis. The conference began honoring all-academic teams during the 2007-08 academic year.
Last fall, Eastern placed 25 student-athletes on the fall all-academic team - the second-most of any LEC institution. It had 25 on the 2008 fall team and 20 on the inaugural fall team in 2007.
In 2009/10, 64 Eastern student-athletes were named to the fall, winter and/or spring LEC All-Academic Team - a total which placed it just one selection behind the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and the University of Southern Maine, which shared second place in the listing.

Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
We are about to experiment with sourdough cultures from Italy. They have been cultured from very old bakeries in the Naples region. It should take a while to re-activate the freeze dried culture. We plan on doing one at a time so as to not contaminate them. Have any of you tried this method of leavening your doughs for both pizza and bread?http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/imag...s/confused.gif
Bill & Jeannie
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
being relatively new to sourdough cultures, not having much success (as I was not too keen on the taste when compared to normal dried yeast) and then let them starve to death.
However, with this in mind, will the yeast that you are going to re-activate and by feeding them with your home based flours (that I believe have some natural yeasts in them already) and your water (whether tap, mineral or purified/filtered water), will the cultures still maintain the flavors that are bread into the culture in Italy, or will they gradually change to adopt the flavors within your feeding flours?
Just a thought.
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
Recent research seems to suggest that the yeast can stay relatively pure if kept healthy. The bacteria are more troublesome. The original bacteria strain TENDS to hang around but is usually augmented by flour bacteria (maybe no problem with Caputo 00) in this case and local bacteria. This should be an interesting experiment!
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
Thanks for the information. We will be starting up the cultures in a week or two after our painting is complete and airs out. Whew! Moving all the furniture is the hardest part of that job.
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
"We are about to experiment with sourdough cultures from Italy."
It may start out that way. Local yeast and bacteria is always in the air and before long your sourdough culture will be from "Ocean County New Jersey".
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
Yes, that may be true but if the cultures are strong to start and are fed properly they will not be impacted by those found in the air locally. Why then doesn't baker's commercial freeze dried instant yeast change character and taste? Because it uses maltose and competes with the lactobacilli for that nutrient.
What current scientific data tells us is that it is the complex process of fermentation of paired yeast and lactobacillus working together, will produce the flavors we are seeking. The yeast gives the leavening effect, the texture and the bacteria the sourness.
If we generate enough strong sour dough cultures at the proper conditions and temperatures, the flavors will be the same according to what I've read.
We'll see soon enough, empirically, if it is true.
Maybe the wild yeasts here are something I should cultivate and strengthen and market? If San Francisco can have Candida humilis and Lactobacillus sanfrancisco maybe Ocean County NJ's Candida and L. oceancountynj would make a good tasting leavening agent? Thanks for the idea.
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
I've been looking for more info. Found some at: Camaldoli and Ischia Sourdough Cultures
Hope it helps ease the confusion.
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
so I have a sourdough culture and I have activated and it is now ready to use. How much sourdough starter do I use in our standard recipe (500, 325, 10, 6) to replace the 6g of active dry yeast?
Re: Sourdough cultures, Camaldoli, Ischia
Rose says to make a SD starter at about 30% of your total flour and water. Skip the yeast altogether, save the salt for the final build. In this case you would subtract 150 flour, 97 of water to mix with your SD, give it your 12-16 hour to mature and then do your final build. I assume you know it takes more time SD vs. yeast.

Very little has been learned about 64-year-old Kurt Myers in the five days since he shot six people in a murderous rampage across Herkimer County last week, police said Monday.
But a look at the cell phone Myers had with him during the shooting spree Wednesday morning that left four people dead in Mohawk and Herkimer might reveal more about the killer's private life, police said.
Very little has been learned about 64-year-old Kurt Myers in the five days since he shot six people in a murderous rampage across Herkimer County last week, police said Monday.
But a look at the cell phone Myers had with him during the shooting spree Wednesday morning that left four people dead in Mohawk and Herkimer might reveal more about the killer's private life, police said.
As police continue to piece together the puzzle left behind by Myers' massacre, state police Senior Investigator Timothy Blaise in Herkimer said authorities still want anyone who might have known Myers to come forward.
They can call state police at 866-7275.
"We're actively working on his background, so we'd like to talk to anybody that knew anything about him or anybody who has had conversations with him," Blaise said. "We haven't had a lot of people come forward yet."
Myers is believed to have attended SUNY Fulton-Montgomery Community College in Johnstown, and police have already talked to some of his friends from back then, Blaise said.
Here are some of the questions police have looked into since Myers shot four people – killing two – at John's Barbershop in Mohawk before killing two more people minutes later at Gaffey's Fast Lube in Herkimer:
What is known about the weapon Myers used in the shootings?
It was a Mossberg 590 12-gauge pump-action shotgun that Myers legally obtained in 1996, Blaise said. Blaise could not yet say how many rounds had been fired or how many times each of the victims had been shot.
Police know where Myers got the shotgun years ago, but Blaise did not yet want to publicly identify that person.
There is no indication that Myers possessed any other weapons, Blaise said.
Did any of the victims attempt to defend themselves before being shot?
None of the victims were carrying any personal firearms, Blaise said, and there is no indication that any tried to fight with Myers. One victim, Michael Renshaw, appeared to be coming out of a bathroom at Gaffey's when he and an employee, Thomas Stefka, were fatally shot shortly after 9:30 a.m.
Another employee was also present at the lube shop, but he was in a pit underneath a vehicle in the garage when the shooting began, Blaise said.
Why did Myers choose these places and shoot these people?
Still unclear.
"All we can say for sure is that he's definitely been to those places before, but it doesn't appear that he was targeting any individual," Blaise said. "We haven't found any indications that any of these victims knew him at all," with the exception of the barber, John Seymour, who had cut Myers' hair in the past.
Page 2 of 2 - Seymour was listed in fair condition at St. Elizabeth Medical Center on Monday, while the only other survivor, Dan Haslauer, remained in critical condition and was due to undergo another surgery, Blaise said.
Police have briefly talked to Seymour, but have not yet been able to speak with Haslauer about what happened, Blaise said. Two other men – Harry Montgomery Sr. and Michael Ransear – were shot and killed in the barbershop.
What caused the earlier fire at Myers' apartment in Mohawk?
Blaise did not know if any cause had been determined yet, but he did say the fire appeared to be an act of arson and that gasoline was found at Myers' apartment inside 32 S. Washington St.
Although the fire was reported just minutes before Myers began shooting his victims nearby, Blaise said the purpose of the fire is not yet clear. Perhaps Myers knew he wouldn't be coming back, Blaise speculated, or maybe it was to done to attract the attention of first responders while he carried out his shooting spree elsewhere.
Did Myers leave behind any explanation for his actions?
No. Police have found no notes, manifestos or journals to shed light on Myers' state of mind or intentions, Blaise said. Blaise also isn't aware of any computers Myers possessed, and nothing has been recovered from his apartment that would suggest Myers lived any kind of double life.
Had Myers undergone any psychiatric treatment prior to the shootings?
Not that police have found.
"We've looked into that extensively," Blaise said, but there's no indication that Myers had ever been committed for any kind of psychiatric disorders. There's also no evidence that Myers was taking any prescription drugs or using any controlled substances, Blaise said.
Why did Myers choose to hide out in the abandoned former Glory Days and General Herkimer Hotel building?
Still unclear.
Myers parked his red Jeep Wrangler in the alley alongside the vacant building before entering through an unlocked back door, Blaise said. He was then hiding inside a small utility room when police stormed the cluttered bar, where Myers fatally shot a K-9 unit before police returned fire and killed Myers.
Myers was not dressed appropriately to spend 19 hours holed up in a building without power, Blaise said. He was only wearing a flannel shirt underneath a hooded jacket along with a dark knit wool cap.
Myers also never said a word to police at any point before he was shot dead, Blaise said.

Abolition of NSL Demanded by Overseas Compatriots' Paper
|Pyongyang, July 8 (KCNA) -- Minjok Sibo, a newspaper published by Koreans in Japan, on July 1 carried an article demanding the abolition of the "National Security Law" in south Korea.
The NSL is a copy of the ill-famed "Maintenance of the Public Order Act" enacted by the Japanese imperialists for the purpose of cracking down on the activists for independence, the article said.
The successive conservative regimes have maintained their power and brutally suppressed the progressive forces on the strength of the NSL, it noted.
The NSL which should have been already abolished became more draconic under the Lee Myung Bak regime and has been used for cracking down on reunification patriots and progressive organizations, it charged.
It called for abolishing the NSL which chills the desire of the fellow countrymen for reunification and fosters antagonism, jealousy, confrontation and distrust, and realizing the democratization of south Korean society.

Interview with Mehdi Mojtabavi – The Love Mattress Designer
In December 2007 we presented on Freshome an interesting product that a lot of people liked. That poduct is called the Love Mattress. I also liked this product so much that I've decided to contact Mehdi Mojtabavi, the designer of this innovative matress for an interview, and here it is, plus pictures at a higher quality, just in time …for Valentines Day …the Love Mattress.
Freshome : Tell us a few things about Mehdi Mojtabavi (example: where you live, how old are you, education, and a brief introduction for our readers).
Mehdi Mojtabavi : I was born in 1974 in Mashhad a city in north east of Iran. I graduated in BA with a degree from the industrial design course at the Iran University of Science and Technology (IUST) in Tehran. Now I live in Tehran and run my own design office, Gooyadesign.
Freshome : We love the Love Mattress. Tell us a few words about this prject and how did you come up with this smart idea.
Mehdi Mojtabavi : It was a problem for me and had made busy my mind for awhile. I believe that lovely embracing specially between partners is one of the most calmative and continues situations. Embracing and body connection after lovemaking is very important for strengthening relationships. It causes feeling safe and shows a real love especially to females. (Ref. to sexual abuse in psychology) Nevertheless, what usually stops this pleasant state is not mental tiredness; it is physical weakness. Considering different body forms and sizes and sleeping styles, it seemed impossible to find a solution for this historical problem at the beginning. Developing some raw ideas and correcting them step by step made this concept. This is what usually happens when I design something.
Freshome : We know that The Love Mattress is just a design concept right now, any chances to see the product in stores, or available somewhere?
Mehdi Mojtabavi : As you know there is a long way from conception to mass production. When a designer introduces a concept, it means there is no any similar product in the market. So you are not able to use other producer's experiences. Mass Production itself has several steps from research to development and final engineering. Although Marketing planning can be done simultaneously, the whole process takes time any way. So be patient if you wish to have one.
Freshome : How did you get into furniture/product design? How you came to be a designer?
Mehdi Mojtabavi : From childhood I discovered my ability in art, and used to do painting, sketching, cartoon, music, and what ever I could do in that area. I even used to make some musical instruments for awhile and used to spend my weekends and summers working in a decoration workshop for 3 years. All of these were before my eighteen years old. During those years I was in love with architecture and I was waiting impatiently for entrance to the architecture academy. When I get familiar with industrial design, I found it more practical and suitable for me. Today, although I still like architecture and other arts, I love and focus on product design. I believe that product design is the most complicated field of design. In fact, more complication causes more enjoy.
Freshome : Tell us a few things about your design philosophy and process.
Mehdi Mojtabavi : I gave a hint to complication of product design. I have to mention that this complication is an internal and hidden character for a product. I believe that what should appear in form and function is only simplicity. This simplicity is based on complication. Look at our body, extreme external simplicity comparing with extreme internal complication. Even in a single part well designed product, a professional can find numerous complicated details which an ordinary user doesn't and shouldn't feel them.This is my main philosophy in design.But what I design usually? Apart from clients' projects, most of my designs are about our forgotten simple daily problems which I believe, changing the world can start easily from this point. Eslimi T-shirt hanger and Easy Tape dispenser are two other my award winning concepts which show my attitude.
Freshome : Where do you find your inspiration for design?
Mehdi Mojtabavi : Nature
Freshome : Any advice for others who want to work in this domain?
Mehdi Mojtabavi : Innovation will happen exactly when you come to a dead-end in your design. When you feel you have found the solution and your mind doesn't work any more, this is when exactly you are passing whatever you have seen or experienced before. Here is the beginning of innovation.
Freshome : How is a day in Mehdi Mojtabavi life ?
Mehdi Mojtabavi : Well, I spend most of my time on design even weekends. Of course all of my activities are not necessarily financial. I go through the design books and websites to see good designs every day. This keeps my design sense up to date. I review design article titles and read one or two most interesting of them every week. Recently I spend a few hours a week on organizing our new society called ISPID (Iran Society of professional industrial designers) which aims pure design from professional designers' point of view, not doctor-professor-theoreticians.
Freshome : Can you share a piece of wisdom with Freshome readers? Something of value that life thought you.
Mehdi Mojtabavi : The only thing in the world which I can trust to is "Science".
Freshome : Tell us about other projects you are working on right now.
Mehdi Mojtabavi : At the moment I am working on a competition-project for an international company. They have invited some award winning designers to participate this project.

We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Region: Central Coast, California
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Style: Smooth & Supple
Alcohol By Volume: 13.5%
Item no. 110442
77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 6% Grenache
This full-bodied garnet wine exhibits aromas of dark cherry and mocha and dark fruit fl avors. Given that the majority of the wine is aged in barrels for at least six months, the wine finishes in a characteristically Cabernet style, with firm but still accessible tannins and a long, lingering finish.
Monthaven Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted from select vineyards throughout California's diverse Central Coast, with a focus on fruit from Paso Robles and Monterey. The heat of Paso Robles delivers ripe fruit with depth, which is then balanced by the cooler-climate Monterey grapes that deliver a unique complexity to the wine. Monthaven fruit is fermented colder than average - with a long, cold soak at 50°, starting fermentation at 65° and ending before the wine hits 75° - to create a juicy wine with well-managed tannins.

Kaila Hunt
Sidney Littlejohn
Patrick Murphy
Jadyn Spencer
Jackie Traina
Florida: 6
Alabama: 3
THE MODERATOR: Here with Alabama we have Head Coach Patrick Murphy, Jaclyn Traina, Sidney Littlejohn, Jadyn Spencer and Kayla Hunt. We will begin with an opening statement.
COACH MURPHY: Congrats to Tim and the Florida Gators. Everybody told me that he would keep coming back, keep coming back you're eventually going to win one and the statement goes for them. I think it was the 6th time at least that they've been here and it's nice that an SEC school can now hold that trophy high.
I think the biggest things in the two games was they just got‑‑ they continued innings and got key hits. You know, the four runs in the second and, you know, it was‑‑ the other night I think it was three hits or four hits combined with two hits, back to back to back and we just couldn't get that big innings and we hit into way too many double plays, you know, unlucky, but I'm really pleased with my team. I thought it was one of the easiest teams I've ever had to coach, absolutely no discipline. You know, there was 5 academic all Americans playing in this tournament and four of them wore Alabama across their chest and that's a notable accomplishment for these young ladies.
Q. Jackie and Kayla what was that moment like on the outfield, you guys had a meeting between the team and the coaches, what was that moment like for you guys?
UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: It was a good moment. Just being able to be around these people, they're great people. And to‑‑ the best thing that I'm going to take from this is the moments and the relationships that I built with these ‑‑ you know, my family. And we didn't come out with a win, but, you know, all I can ask is to have great memories with them and that's what I did.
THE MODERATOR: Kayla?
KAILA HUNT: I think I would have to say the same. Obviously we all want to end our career with a win but the biggest thing I'm going to take way from this is the relationships and the friendships we've built over the past four years with these people, because it's not going to matter in 20 years whether I end my career with a win or not and Murph made sure to make that point. You know, that the biggest thing you can take from this whole experience, is the relationships and how much we do care about each other. So that was the biggest thing about that moment.
Q. For Patrick and Jadyn and Kayla, looked like you had a plan for Rogers when you finally saw her. Were you surprised by the pitching decision and how did you try to adjust to the other pitchers?
COACH MURPHY: Well, you know, I wish it wouldn't have been such a big surprise to everybody, that's the problem with college ball. There is three pitchers on our team, he has three.
Let's all use 'em! You know? It's a staff. It's not a one pitcher. We were‑‑ we had seen Haeger, we've seen Gourley, we were ready for all three. You know, he decided to throw the one he did.
We saw all three today. So, I just think‑‑ I think more coaches need to use everybody, so kudos to Tim.
JADYN SPENCER: I definitely agree with that statement. I think our coaching staff does a great job preparing us for the pitching staff we're going to face. We don't necessarily hone in on one pitcher, because especially with a team like Florida they have three capable pitchers just like we have three capable pitchers. You have to be ready for anything and I wouldn't necessarily say it's a surprise, because we've seen her before and all three of them do a great job so we were ready for whatever they were going to throw.
KAILA HUNT: I agree. We had watched film on all three and we had a plan going into it, so it wasn't really a surprise. We were ready for whoever they were going to throw. We had a plan for each one of them, and I thought we did, especially against Haeger. In the first inning we kinda jumped on it.
So it's not really a surprise. And we had watched film and we had a plan for each of the pitchers.
Q. Jackie, did you just run out of gas, use up everything you had to get to the final? And for Jackie and Sidney, what do you see in this kid, and Sidney what did you learn here in the postseason that you'll take into next year?
JACLYN TRAINA: You know, it happens. You know, my pitches might have not been as sharp as they were, but I was‑‑ I have full confidence in both Leslie and Sidney. I'm really proud of her for what she's done here. She is going to do a lot of great things at Alabama.
SYDNEY LITTLEJOHN: Learning everything that I have from Jack and definitely going to carry me over through the next three years. She has been a great leader not only for me and Leslie, but for this entire team. What she has done for this team is truly remarkable, and we're just going to try to carry on her legacy.
Q. Patrick, can you talk about what you lose with this group of seniors and what you look at going forward, and what does making another run with this group do for the nine who hadn't done it before?
COACH MURPHY: I'll start with that. I think it's terrific because those nine newbies got to experience a ride of a lifetime.
They've got that experience now, they're going to have that hunger when we come back in the fall. And to have Sidney and Leslie both get to pitch this week was awesome, too, and I think a lot of people got to see what Sidney is capable of. It's going to be a lot of fun with her. The 5 seniors, they've again the easiest kids to coach, not one issue off the field. Everybody is above a 3.4 GPA, 4 of the 5 are going to graduate in four years with Kayla being the lone one because she's got to student teach, and it's impossible to student teach and play at the same time.
Just the best group of young ladies. If I had a daughter I would want those five, that's how great of kids they are.
Q. Jackie, you were drafted by the MPF; right?
JACLYN TRAINA: No. I did not put my name in. I don't want to go pro.
Q. Since I was wrong on one question, the next question is, what do you do next?
JACLYN TRAINA: Right now I'm just trying to figure that out. I'll go with the flow. Oh, grad school for sure! Got to get my master's in social work.
Q. Patrick, how has Florida changed during the time Tim has been there? What do you see in them over the years?
COACH MURPHY: I think the biggest difference is he's more balanced up and down the lineup. I remember when I first started I had 9 righty hitters and I was playing for a 3‑run home run every time we got up. We came to the World Series the first time and didn't do very much, and I had to adjust my lineup and he's done the same thing. Used to be a lot of power hitters and no speed, no short game and now he's got a little mix of everything, and I try to go a third, a third, a third and it's similar to what he has. But I think he has evolved offensively, because I really think it was the Bass Brothers early on and now he's got some speed at the top of the order and some lefties and some short game so I think he's done a great job.
Q. Coach, I know you had a little bit of a background in baseball, and obviously Coach Walton does as a college player himself and he played in the College World Series. For both of you, did your baseball background impact ‑‑ did it impact your coaching or Coach Walton's at all? I don't know if you've ever thought about how it might impact it differently.
COACH MURPHY: I coached five years of high school baseball in Iowa, and then I went to Louisiana Lafayette with the Yvette Girouard, and she got me going in softball. I think I took a little bit of both. The short game and the strategies of softball and then the home run and the power hitting of baseball.
I tried to combine the two. I think both have‑‑ I mean, I used to coach softball to go home and coach baseball in the summer and I think both helped the other sport tremendously.
Q. (No microphone.)
COACH MURPHY: No, I mean, sometimes he won't bump with a runner at first and no outs. I think that's all baseball but, you know, he's got the hitters so he can do that. One last thing. I appreciate the media because when you guys put the effort and the time into this, this shows to our ladies that you guys think this is important, and with the crowds this week and all the tremendous support from Oklahoma City and all sports, ASA, USA softball and the University of Oklahoma, it's been one heck of a good ride for all of us at Alabama, so thanks to everybody in the room.
THE MODERATOR: Thanks, guys.

The Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P) has failed Nigerians, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Rules and Business, Senator Ita Enang, has said.
Speaking to journalists in Abuja yesterday on the resolve of the Senate to debate the Petroleum Industry Bill next week, Enang said those in charge of the programme had failed to utilize the funds accruing from the partial removal of fuel subsidy to impact positively on the lives of Nigerians.
According to him, the funds ought to have been invested in the procurement of module refineries rather than allow the Nigerian National Corporation squander it all in the name of Turn Around Maintenance (TAM).
"The application and utilisation of the SURE-P funds has not been in the interest of the economy. What the SURE-P should have done with that money is that we would have told ourselves what were we subsidising, importation of refined petroleum products."
Enang said the Senate will commence consideration of the PIB on Tuesday, adding that it has been listed as exclusive item on the order paper.
According to him, "to ensure that the PIB to be passed into law is the authentic version, we've published it in the journal as a way of meeting the requirements of passing it into law".

Judicial Watch Files Lawsuit Against Defense Department for Withholding Video of 9/11 Attack on Pentagon
DOD has "no legal basis" to refuse release of videotape
(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it filed a lawsuit on February 22, 2006 against the Department of Defense to force the release of a video that allegedly shows United Flight 77 striking the Pentagon on September 11, 2001. Judicial Watch seeks the information in part to help put to rest conspiracy theories that a government drone or missile hit the Pentagon rather than the hijacked United airplane.
Judicial Watch originally filed a Freedom of Information Act request on December 15, 2004, seeking all records pertaining to camera recordings from the Sheraton National Hotel, the Nexcomm/Citgo gas station, Pentagon security cameras and the Virginia Department of Transportation. The Department of Defense admitted in a January 26, 2005 letter that it possessed a videotape responsive to Judicial Watch's request. However, the Pentagon advised that the video is exempt from release because it is, "part of an ongoing investigation involving Zacarias Moussaoui."
Judicial Watch argues in its lawsuit that "there is no legal basis" for the DOD's refusal to release the videotape. First, while the Freedom of Information Act does allow an exemption for ongoing law enforcement investigations, the Defense Department does not have law enforcement authority over Moussaoui. That belongs to the Department… Continue reading

On the first anniversary of the crash of United Airlines Flight 93, Homeland Security Director Tom Ridge delivered a speech at the site of the disaster in western Pennsylvania. "Faced with the most frightening circumstances one could possibly imagine," he told grieving relatives of the passengers and crewmembers aboard the fourth plane hijacked on 9/11, "they met the challenge like citizen soldiers, like Americans." He recited the now-familiar story of passengers learning by phone about the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, deciding to fight back and breaking into the cockpit–a heroic act that led to their own deaths while sparing countless others in Washington.
"The terrorists were right to fear an uprising," Ridge rhapsodized. "The passengers and crew did whatever they humanly could–boil water, phone the authorities, and ultimately rush the cockpit to foil the attack."
Ridge's boss repeatedly used United 93 to close his standard stump speech. Calling the passenger revolt "the most vivid and sad symbol of them all," George W. Bush said: "People are flying across the country on an airplane, at least they thought they were. They learned the plane was going to be used as a weapon. They got on their telephones. They were told the true story. Many of them told their loved ones goodbye. They said they loved them. They said a prayer; a prayer was said. One guy said, 'Let's roll.' They took the plane into the ground."
The legend of Flight 93 had everything a… Continue reading
Here's how to shut down a ritzy Democratic Party fund-raiser: just ask some simple questions about 9/11.
66% of the electorate in 2004 asked Attorney General Spitzer for an independent investigation into 9/11. Spitzer refused. So, yesterday, I interrupted his speech and asked him why. The really surprising turn of events is that none the upper West Side liberals who came up to talk to me afterwards censured me for the disruption, instead they gave me pointers on how to do it better next time. Many stayed on to talk about 9/11, and the untold story there. Meanwhile, Spitzer and the career politicians cancelled their planned Q&A session, and slunked off stage. No one got around to asking for money at this "fund-raiser." Meanwhile, at the back of the room, five mainstream newspaper reporters and a TV camera talked to me about my Senate race, my book, 9/11, and Vox Pop. Here's the first media hit, below. Remember: The Hicks For Senate Campaign, Green Party people, and 9/11 Truth people and other groups are holding a big protest outside Spitzer's office on 3/22, Wed., 12-2 PM. It's lunchtime at Ground Zero/Wall Street. The Cover-Up is OVER!
HEADLINE: Spitzer Collects Endorsements And Heckles
By DAVID LOMBINO – Staff Reporter of the Sun
The state attorney general, Eliot Spitzer, picked up several endorsements from key Manhattan Democrats yesterday in his race for governor even as he fended off an angry verbal attack by a heckler at an Upper West Side synagogue.
Mr.… Continue reading
The 9/11 Commission made "dramatic changes" to its final report to omit information about the role of Pakistan, according to The Friday Times, a Pakistani weekly. After learning that the report would contain damaging revelations, the Pakistani government dispatched lobbyists to Washington to influence the 9/11 Commission, and may have even paid bribes to Commission members or their staff, the weekly says, citing an official at the Pakistani Foreign Office. "The disclosure sheds doubt on the integrity and honesty of the members of the 9/11 Inquiry Commission and above all on the authenticity of the information in their final report," according to one source cited by the weekly.
The story was picked up yesterday by The Telegraph of Calcutta, India and is now shooting around the blogosphere. We cannot vouch for its veracity, but we can guess at the sort of information that both the US and the Pakistani government might have wanted to omit from The 9/11 Commission Report:
For example, prior to Sept. 11 the chief of the Pakistani intelligence agency ISI allegedly approved a $100,000 wire transfer to a certain Mohamed Atta. Yet the same ISI chief, Mahmud Ahmed, was in Washington for a working visit to his counterparts in the US government for more than a week prior to Sept. 11. On the morning of 9/11 itself, he was having breakfast at the Capitol with the future congressional investigators of the September 11th events. These alleged investigators, Porter Goss and Bob Graham, somehow failed… Continue reading
Action Plan: Citizens Counter-Coup
March 15, 2006
Saturday, March 11th marked 4 years and 6 months since 9/11/01. We at 911truth.org appeal to all concerned citizens to participate in the monthly action known as Citizens Counter-Coup to raise a groundswell demanding truth and justice for 9/11. First, an overview of recent events which highlight the necessity for this campaign.
There is much to report in the last month. It has been revealed by NSA whistleblower Russell Tice that there are NSA spying programs that are even worse than what has been disclosed. This information is so top secret he can't even tell Congress.
It has been revealed that the FBI's reason for not releasing tapes of Flight 77 striking the Pentagon is because it will affect the Moussaui case, even though he has already pled guilty. Is there any logic here?
The Bush Administration and a secretive agency which authorizes business transactions with foreign countries wants to allow UAE to run several main U.S. ports. Even Republican leaders in Congress are in disbelief. It's interesting that a sheik from the United Arab Emirates contributed at least $1 million to the Bush Library Foundation, which established the George Bush Presidential Library at Texas A&M University in College Station (AP). Could this deal be a quid pro quo? Forget that UAE was a financial base for several of the alleged hijackers, and a transfer point for shipments of smuggled nuclear components to Iran, North Korea and Libya by a rogue Pakistani… Continue reading

Attention New Yorkers! Please be advised of the following, and forward to your own lists for the fullest participation possible.
DATE: Wed., March 22nd, 2006
TIME: 12 pm ? 2 pm
LOCATION: 120 Broadway (south of Fulton St. – The building belongs to Silverstein Properties!)
2 pm demonstration at Ground Zero
4 pm demonstration at Wall St. & Broadway to engage the financial district
In November of 2004, an independent inquiry into the events of 9/11 titled Citizens Complaint & Petition was submitted to Eliot Spitzer?s office. His deputy, William Casey, personally received it. In public events Mr. Spitzer was asked for a response to this Complaint, which he acknowledged knowing about. To this day there has been no response.
Now earlier this month, in special Congressional hearings on Able Danger we see more cause for suspicion. Able Danger was a Pentagon terrorist tracking operation. News broke last summer with whistleblowers reporting they knew about Mohamed Atta in early 2000, but experienced suppression of their testimony by the 9/11 Commission. Here is another scenario where Eliot Spitzer?s behavior raises more red flags which should outrage all Americans. He barred his top aide, Deputy Attorney General Dietrich Snell, from testifying at these hearings which occurred after 248 Congresspersons petitioned the Pentagon.
In the 2004 book by five-time Emmy award-winning journalist Peter Lance called Cover Up: What the Government is Still Hiding About the War on Terror, he makes a damning statement about Dietrich Snell. "Under… Continue reading
In the past two weeks, a number of 9/11 truth-related comments have been made via various media sources, suggesting a broader awareness of the need for 9/11 truth and justice is finally reaching mainstream America–a little. Following are a few examples:
Wesley Clark, 2004 Democratic Presidential candidate, General, US Army, Ret., on ABC?s 'This Week' Sunday, March 5: Watch the full segment here: http://www.911truth.org/media/wesleyclark911.mov
"We've never finished the investigation of 9/11 and whether the administration actually misused the intelligence information it had. The evidence seems pretty clear to me. I've seen that for a long time."
US Representative Dennis Kucinich
"I want to call to the attention of the House the juxtaposition of two news stories. One […] relating to 9/11. It says 'Federal officials were repeatedly warned in the months before the September 11, 2001 terror attacks that Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda were planning aircraft hijacking suicide attacks, according to a news report that the Bush administration had been repressing.' And this, from the front page of the Washington Post, 'a newly leaked video recording the high level government deliberation the day before Hurricane Katrina hit shows disaster officials emphatically warning President Bush that the storm posed a catastrophic threat to New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, and a grim-faced Bush personally assuring state leaders that his administration was ?fully prepared? to help. Now, do we see a pattern here? 9/11? Katrina? They knew something was going to happen and they didn't act. They knew that if they… Continue reading

03/15/06 "ICH' — — If you were President George W. Bush with all available US troops tied down by the Iraqi resistance, and you were unable to control Iraq or political developments in the country, would you also start a war with Iran?
Yes, you would.
Bush's determination to spread Middle East conflict by striking at Iran does not make sense.
First of all, Bush lacks the troops to do the job. If the US military cannot successfully occupy Iraq, there is no way that the US can occupy Iran, a country approximately three times the size in area and population.
Second, Iran can respond to a conventional air attack with missiles targeted on American ships and bases, and on oil facilities located throughout the Middle East.
Third, Iran has human assets, including the Shia majority population in Iraq, that it can activate to cause chaos throughout the Middle East.
Fourth, polls of US troops in Iraq indicate that a vast majority do not believe in their mission and wish to be withdrawn. Unlike the yellow ribbon folks at home, the troops are unlikely to be enthusiastic about being trapped in an Iranian quagmire in addition to the Iraqi quagmire.
Fifth, Bush's polls are down to 34 percent, with a majority of Americans believing that Bush's invasion of Iraq was a mistake.
If you were being whipped in one fight, would you start a second fight with a bigger and stronger person?
That's what Bush is… Continue reading
In the past few weeks, 9/11 truth has been squeaking out, to various degrees, through various media sources, suggesting a broader awareness of the need for 9/11 truth and justice is finally reaching mainstream America — a little. Following is a sampling of these.

And this, from the front page of the Washington Post, 'a newly leaked video recording the high level government deliberation the day before Hurricane Katrina hit shows disaster officials emphatically warning President Bush that the storm posed a catastrophic threat to New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, and a grim-faced Bush personally assuring state leaders that his administration was… Continue reading
Sheen calls for truly independent investigation, joins growing ranks of prominent credible whistleblowers
Alex Jones & Paul Joseph Watson/Prison Planet.com | March 20 2006
"I was up early and we were gonna do a pre-shoot on Spin City, the show I used to do, I was watching the news and the north tower was burning. I saw the south tower hit live, that famous wide shot where it disappears behind the building and then we see the tremendous fireball."
"There was a feeling, it just didn't look any commercial jetliner I've flown on any time in my life and then when the buildings came down later on that day I said to my brother 'call me insane, but did it sorta look like those buildings came down in a controlled demolition'?"
Sheen said that most people's gut instinct, that the buildings had been deliberately imploded, was washed away by the incessant flood of the official version of events from day one.
Sheen questioned the plausibility of a fireballs traveling 110 feet down an elevator shaft and causing damage to the lobbies of the towers as seen in video footage, especially when contrasted with eyewitness accounts of bombs and explosions in the basement levels of the buildings.
Regarding building 7, which wasn't hit by a plane, Sheen highlighted the use of the term "pull," a demolition industry term for pulling the outer walls of the building towards the center in an implosion, as was used by Larry Silverstein in a September… Continue reading
The following was published by New York Magazine (nymetro.com) on March 19, 2006 and given a cover headline as "9/11 Conspiracy Theorists Run Amok" (original here). Archived (minus the photos) by 911Truth.org solely for educational purposes – see Fair Use Notice, below.
A new generation of conspiracy theorists is at work on a secret history of New York's most terrible day.
By Mark Jacobson
Free fall: The speed at which the towers came down—they were almost in free fall—suggests controlled demolition rather than catastrophic collapse.
11/22 and 9/11
They keep telling us 9/11 changed everything. But even in this Photoshopped age of unreliable narrators, much remains the same. The assassination of President John Kennedy, the Crime of the Last Century, occurred in plain sight, in front of thousands—yet exactly what happened remains in dispute. The Warren Commission found that Lee Harvey Oswald, fellow traveler of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, shot Kennedy with a cheap Mannlicher-Carcano rifle from a sixth-floor window of the Texas School Book Depository. The commission found that Oswald, who two days later would be murdered by nightclub owner Jack Ruby, acted alone.
Yet, as with so many such events, there is the sanctioned history and the secret history—players hidden from view. In the Kennedy murder, the involvement of shadowy organizations like the Mafia and the CIA came into question. This way of thinking came to challenge the official narrative put forth by the Warren Commission. It… Continue reading

Mike Berger, Media Coordinator of 911Truth.org, will be featured tonight on CNN Headline News Channel's "Showbiz Tonight," which airs at 7pm Eastern Monday through Friday, and replays at 11pm Eastern. From their website:
"The 9/11 conspiracy theory. Startling comments by one of the biggest stars on TV about what he thinks really happened on 9/11. "Showbiz Tonight" airs live on Headline News at 7 p.m. and replays at 11 p.m. (All times Eastern.)"
What is striking about agent Samit's account, like the account of his office-mate Coleen Rowley, is the assumption of "criminal negligence" on the part of FBI headquarters, and RFU head David Frasca and Michael Maltbie in particular. Best I can see, criminal complicity has not been ruled out whatsoever.
I'm grateful for the testimony of Mr. Samit, and for Rowley's whistleblowing, but how exactly can either know for sure that the RFU's obstructionism was the result of careerism or 'criminal incompetence' rather than something else? I don't claim to know the reasons, but Samit and Rowley certainly cannot know for sure, either.
Remember, there is evidence that Frasca intentionally and without good cause (and thus not negligently) obstructed the flow of information up the FBI's chain of command. You may recall the 'Time' magazine story early in 2002 which detailed agent Rowley's charges. The story's authors claimed that Ken Williams' infamous "Phoenix Memo" was received by Frasca a couple of months in advance of 9/11:
… Continue reading
Rowley's letter lays out the case that the FBI made fateful miscalculations by failing to see a possible connection between the Minneapolis investigation of flight student Moussaoui and the hunch of Phoenix agent Kenneth Williams — posited in a report to HQ two months earlier — that al-Qaeda operatives were attending U.S.

9/11 Truth activists have been showing up in Eliot Spitzer's path lately. On Sunday, March 11th, three activists attended a swanky public reception for Eliot Spitzer and supporters of his candidacy for governor. Sander Hicks, author of The Big Wedding and a candidate for US Senate, Green party of New York, stood up and popped the question "Mr. Spitzer, why have you not opened an independent investigation into the events of September 11, 2001?" Many clueless Dems in the crowd got very agitated, but Sander persisted. Spitzer got off the hook by saying Sander should respect the crowd's wishes and told him to call his office. He did and as of today calls were never returned.
What's the real issue here? In November of 2004, an independent inquiry into the events of 9/11 entitled "Citizens' Complaint & Petition" was submitted to Eliot Spitzer's office. This document contained great detail about the glaring questions still unanswered and listed damages suffered by so many people. There were 100 signatures from prominent Americans such as Howard Zinn, Daniel Ellsberg, Ralph Nader, John Gray, Ray McGovern, Medea Benjamin, and Ed Asner. The Complaint also had 48 victims' families as signatories. Spitzer's top prosecutor, William Casey, personally received the document. However, this has been met with a deafening silence. No action was ever taken.
How could it be that Spitzer, who has won accolades for his successful legal actions against Wall St. financial institutions engaging in fraud,… Continue reading
As of the close of the poll, March 26, 2006,
CNN.com Showbiz QUICKVOTE poll:
Do you agree with Charlie Sheen that the U.S. government covered up the real events of the 9/11 attacks?
52,621 voters:
84% Yes
16% No
Don't let the pundits fool you… we ARE the Majority!
For Immediate Release — Thu. 3/23/2006
Will Charlie Sheen's declaration of disbelief in the "official conspiracy theory" make it safe for the rest of us to finally say what we really think about September 11th?
The time has come for you to say openly what you think about the unsolved crimes of September 11th, 2001. Yes, you. This isn't to say that many people don't still believe in the "Official Story" as the government tells it. But what about the many among us who just don't buy it anymore? It's time for Americans of conscience to show our elected representatives that they will be held to account.
You've seen the government lie about everything else. (Iraq comes to mind.) And you've had your open questions. Questions about what this government knew before the 9/11 attacks. (The Moussaoui trial comes to mind.) Questions about what really happened on that terrible day, the suspicious timing and circumstances. About the way the heroes and victims are still being treated. The way the EPA told New Yorkers the Ground Zero air was safe to breathe, unfiltered. The way the questions of the September 11th families were ignored by official investigations like the "9/11 Commission." The way the crimes in New York and Washington were used to justify wars that were already planned years in advance.
But perhaps it seemed to you that it was unsafe to speak out. Or maybe unpopular. People might call you a conspiracy theorist. They might… Continue reading

New York City
Last week the "Showbiz Tonight" program on CNN Headline News aired three programs we believe deserve commendation. We, of the 9/11 truth and justice movement in New York City are heartened that the network saw fit to air extensive segments giving fair coverage to Charlie Sheen's comments about September 11th – as well as a platform for 911Truth.org spokesperson Mike Berger, uncompromising radio host Alex Jones, and Webster Tarpley, author of 911 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA. For the first time since the fateful day in September of 2001, mass-audience television broadcast alternative perspectives on what really happened.
"We're not the conspiracy theorists on this particular issue. It seems to me like 19 amateurs with box cutters taking over four commercial airliners and hitting 75% of their targets, that feels like a conspiracy theory. It raises a lot of questions."
"It seems like the worm is turning… It is up to us to reveal the truth. It is up to us because we owe it to the families, we owe it to the victims. We owe it to everybody's life who was drastically altered, horrifically that day and forever. We owe it to them to uncover what happened."
—Charlie Sheen

"Already there is near-consensus as to the sequence of events that led to the collapse of the World Trade Center."–Shankar Nair, as quoted in the Chicago Tribune, September 19, 2001
Turn on C-Span, or "Meet The Press," or any other media program presenting federal officials. Whatever the issue, it always comes back to the same thing. Our government really has nothing else to offer us but protection from another 9/11. It uses this painful story to cut public services, eliminate our basic rights, and plunder the national coffers. But for many of us, it is not entirely clear from whom we most need protection.1 As our debt explodes and our freedoms diminish, it would be wise to maintain focus on the origins of our War on Terror. No matter where this war leads us, we will need to keep the beginning in mind if we ever hope to see an end.
The Point of Origin: The Collapse of the WTC
Many have found that the 9/11 Commission not only failed to help us understand what happened; it also omitted or distorted most of the facts.2 But if we really want to zero in on the exact turning point around which we plunged into chaos, we need to focus in particular on the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings. This is where our hearts were wrenched and our minds were made ready for never-ending war, torture, and apparently the end of everything that was American.… Continue reading

Announcing Rich E. Obscure's first book!
If You Want to Be Rich Don't Buy This Book
So welcome to me. This is my soap box and since I have many interests I'm sure it will grow and expand significantly (if I don't loose interest first). I will probably spend most of my time on money issues and politics because I'm really boring. No actually I hope I'm not that boring but those are issues I care about. I also care about cycling, skiing, boating and traveling among other things so I'm not that boring after all. The reason I care so much about finances is that I see too many people getting rich ripping other people off because they believe there is an easy way to riches. The reason I care so much about politics is because I believe we all have a role to play to improve society.
Let me know what you think about me, this website or any issue that you feel I'd be interested in. If you don't want the world to see what you want to say to me you can always email me privately. Enjoy the site and I hope in some way we can all make the world a better place.
Oh yeah what about the title of this site? Well who can argue
with being reasonable. That's not much to ask.
Reason is what's lacking in so many aspects of our lives. It's been supplanted
by instant gratification and political expediency. We
argue points based on emotion and selfishness rather than facts. It seems to
me that people are just out for themselves. Hopefully, together we can do
something to change that.

As the Catholic Church prepares to celebrate the golden jubilee of the Uganda martyrs becoming saints this year, it ushered in 2014 with overnight prayers.
The prayers led by Archbishop Dr Cyprian Kizito Lwanga, were held at Nsambya Catholic parish grounds under the theme, 'Cast unto the deep.'
Lwanga revealed President Museveni had written to the new pontiff, Francis, inviting him for the golden jubilee celebrations scheduled for Martyrs day, June 3. On October 18, 1964, the 22 (now 24 with the addition of Daudi Okello and Gildo Irwa) Catholic martyrs were proclaimed saints by Pope Paul VI in St Peter's basilica, Rome.
New Year's Eve overnight prayers started with mass at 10pm where Lwanga appealed to the thousands of congregants to protect the family institution by rejecting homosexuality.
"Families are in turmoil because we are copying western lifestyles that we shouldn't," Lwanga said.
He promised to release a family prayer book this year for families to stay grounded in faith. He also urged the Christians to stay on guard against the flourishing false religions conning people of their money and lives.
Earlier, Fr Athanas Musajjakawa urged congregants to root themselves in God's word despite any challenges they face. Among the congregants was Kampala Metropolitan Police Commander, Andrew Felix Kaweesi and comedian, Patriko Mujuuka. At 11:40pm, the congregants lit candles to symbolize a new beginning as they waited for the dawn of the New Year.
Then a single burst of red shot into the sky. The loud crackling of the beautiful fireworks sent the congregation, some who had fallen asleep into excitement, before more bursts of yellow, green, blue, and purple rent the air.
And as the last firework shot out, the congregation switched to a song of praise, welcoming 2014. Overnight prayers were also held at Kiwamirembe, Namugongo, Busega and Ggogoonya Catholic shrines.

Sandpaper Sand Castle
Activity DesignerMelissa Allen
400 Projects
My kids discovered sand paper and were intrigued. We had to find a use for it and a sand castle was perfect!
What You'll Need
- markers
- heavy paper
- colored glue - optional
How We Did It
The kids cut one layer of their castle at a time from sand paper. They cut layer by layer. They glued each section to a heavy sheet of paper and loved watching it all come together.
Comments1 comments
This inspired me to do sand art. My 3.5 year old loves anything to do with glue, so I let her make glue drawings on a piece of cardstock and then showed her how to sprinkle sand (from the sandbox) over the glue and dump off the excess. She had fun and it looks pretty neat when it dries too. Easy and all supplies typically on hand.

Obviously, again, there are public and serious private polls in all three places that don't match up with those at all, suggesting … … .uhm … we don't really know WHAT!!!!
So, with no clear idea where these key states, and the race, stand, we jump forward five days to Election Day itself, where we bring you, in advance, how things will go in the BC04/RNC war room on November 2.
Election Day Republican war room chronology:
5:30 am — Ken Mehlman scans morning papers; winces over latest Iraq attack; is unsurprised by Balz lead on "too close to call."
6:00 am — Steve Schmidt arrives in war room and begins reading papers in search of opportunities to attack John Kerry on the $87 billion vote/statement.
7:00 am — Mehlman and Rove have their last pre-meeting call together to go over plans; they notice a wire story about last-minute buy from Americans for a Secure Planet which charges Kerry blithely ignores threat from aliens; they are not unpleased.
7:04 am — Jennifer tells Chad to shove it on "American Morning" one last time.
7:30 am — White House senior staff meeting in Crawford; Andy Card thanks everyone; Bartlett, exhausted, thanks everyone and reminds folks that clear-headed thinking is needed; President takes last work out.
8:00 am — while monitoring Imus, Steve Schmidt hears Kerry announce his 15th position on Iraq and activates regional press operation and talk radio.
8:00 am — President votes in Crawford; Texas's 34 electoral votes seem secure.
8:01 am — Drudge siren announces Kerry's 15th position on Iraq.
8:35 am — actors Rick Schroeder and Arnold Schwarzenegger record last robocalls of the year; Zell Miller's final robocall regurgitates the spitball line.
11:00 am — Bush daughters visit Arlington HQ for the last time and thank the group; Mehlman gives a pep talk to the crowd; some think he talks too loudly — others are fine with the volume.
Noon — Dowd and Devine debate their internal tracks on Fox; Dowd wins and Tad argues that "it comes down to the ground game."
1:00 pm — Guessing game about second terms begins in earnest — if Danforth takes State, does Bolten succeed Card? Bartlett to deputy chief of staff, new job for Miers?
2:00 pm — Insane exit calling around; everyone but Dowd cheered by reports of long lines in Panama City, Cincinnati 'burbs, Appleton, and Latrobe.
3:00 pm — Mercer Reynolds and Jack Oliver take a breather at the Hay Adams.
3:03 pm — Mindy Tucker Fletcher goes on IP from Tally to assure America that every legitimate vote will be counted.
4:00 pm — Jim Dyke gets calls from Arkansas reporting all is well despite Clinton buzz from weekend rally in Pine Bluff; eschews NRA cufflinks for presidential ones.
5:00 pm — Don Rumsfeld realizes he hasn't courted Bolten all that well; plans to send fruit basket.
5:20 pm — Tim Griffin and Christine Iverson sign off on last "Elephant Never Forgets" — this time, an homage to John Kerry's term St. Paul's term paper calling Henry Wallace "a great man."
5:35 pm — Last "screw you" to Dan Rather — only small fry will do CBS tonight; big guns all do Fox, ABC and the other networks; CBS bookers scramble to get hookup with Lugar in Indianapolis.
6:12 pm — President Bush calls Jim Bunning; they talk baseball; Bush returns to going over twin speeches with Bartlett, Hughes, and Gerson; Karen wants President to say he will be a "Second-termer with Sustenance"; others are less fond of the phrase.

Scout ride
Anybody up for a scout ride on Sunday? Riding trails, steep & rocky if that's good for whoever responds, or "not so" steep & rocky if you'd rather explore trails and help me try "connect" a few trail systems between Mtn City & Watauga Lake.
I rode some today and the rain hasn't hurt the trails. Went up a creek/trail that I'd expected might be roaring after all the rain, but it wasn't bad at all. Also, I met some loggers who were fine with us riding there & even gave me directions....well, general directions anyway.
They said the "old trail" runs the entire ridge, but I'll need help finding it. Just shoot me a PM if Sunday's good.
Also, I went to the Mountain Trail Riders Assoc. meeting. They are planning a fundraiser on Saturday Sept 22 at Doe Mountain, with free tours of the trails & free hot dogs.
Mountain City is planning to become "ATV friendly" like the Hatfield & McCoy area and is going to allow ATV (and I think dirt bikes) to ride throughout the town! Yeee Haw!!

This presents a number of problems, namely
- Users who deploy CF 3.5 to their device but use applications targeting older versions will not benefit from the 3.5 performance improvements
- Developers who develop apps for pre CF 3.5 frameworks cannot easily test their applications ready for when 3.5 only devices come along
Sadly in Microsoft's infinite wisdom the application in question is tucked away in simple EXE inside the 6.2MB download and somewhat hard to find, so i've taken the liberty of packaging it up into a CAB here that installs it with it's own Start Menu shortcut. I've also included the .net CF 3.5 CAB below, so you can get your device updated quickly and easily by...
- Downloading and installing both CABs below (to internal memory!)
- Running '.Net Configuration' from your Start Menu
- Navigating to the 'Device Policy' tab and selecting version 3.5
- Selecting 'Apply' then 'OK'
That's it, you're done! You can even check it's working by installing my CamerAware Beta and hitting 'About', after which you should see the screen below.
Enjoy, and hope this is useful
PS If you ARE a developer, there's other goodies in that Powertoys package that are well worth a look too!

Apparently, it is possible to get a plasma TV screen for £2500 that can also be a mirror, with a function to let you watch a programme while combing your hair (28 February, p 22). It is worth pointing out that there is a cheaper option. Position an ordinary mirror opposite an ordinary TV and you will be able to see the TV while looking in the mirror. This also has the additional advantage of making otherwise predictable repeats look completely different.

Team USA Blasts Canada in World Cup of Softball VIII Opener, 7-0
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - Team USA opened up the General Tire World Cup of Softball with a six-inning, run rule victory over Canada on Thurs., July 11. Sara Nevins (Pinellas Park, Fla.) pitched six innings, allowing just two hits and one walk. She struck out six before giving way to Jessica Moore (Sutter, Calif.) for the final inning.
Valerie Arioto (Pleasanton, Calif.) kick started the scoring with a two-RBI single in the first inning. Team USA stretched the lead out to 4-0 in the second when Raven Chavanne (Thousand Oaks, Calif.) scored after Lauren Chamberlain (Trabuco Canyon, Calif.) reached on an error, and Lauren Gibson (Pasadena, Md.) scored on a successful double steal attempt.
Half of Team USA's eight hits came in those first two innings. Canadian starting pitcher Jenna Caira settled down after allowing the four runs and held Team USA to no hits in her final two innings pitched. Caira yielded to Sara Plourde in the fifth who allowed three runs on four hits with one walk.
Lindsey Ziegenhirt (Elk Grove, Calif.) reached on a walk in the sixth and scored on a single from Taylor Hoagland (Flower Mound, Texas). Gibson belted her first home run of the tournament to give Team USA a 7-0 lead. Moore came on in the bottom of the sixth and held the Canadians scoreless to secure the run-rule victory.
Victoria Haywood and Joey Lye registered Canada's only hits, while Kelsey Haberl was the only other base runner for Team Canada on the evening.
The Red, White & Blue return to action in the World Cup of Softball on Friday live on ESPN at 8 p.m. ET against Australia.
