9/11: The Twin Towers (also billed as Inside the Twin Towers) is a television special documentary film which uses re-enactments and computer-generated imagery to re-create a minute-by-minute account of what happened inside the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City during the September 11 attacks. In the United States, it premiered on the Discovery Channel on 3 September 2006, narrated by Harry Pritchett. In the United Kingdom, it premiered on BBC One on 7 September 2006, narrated by Terence Stamp.
The film won the 2007 British Academy Television Craft Award for Sound Factual, and was nominated (but did not win) for Editing as well.[1] It was also nominated for the 2007 Emmy for Outstanding Made For Television Movie.[2]
The documentary revolves around several WTC workers/rescuers as they retell their experiences from the 9/11 attacks, beginning from the moment of when American Airlines Flight 11 hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center to the aftermath of the collapse of both Twin Towers.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Leaders from across the District of Columbia municipal government gathered last April for a summit on cybersecurity, where they agreed in writing on the need to improve computer safety training for its workers. Yet nearly a year later, no organized, across-the-board training is offered for employees even though electronic data theft from governments is on the rise.
Information technology experts see training as a vital component of cybersecurity and D.C. officials acknowledge their own employees should be better educated on computer use, especially as governments face increasingly sophisticated cyber-threats and as human errors have contributed to widespread data breaches.
But officials say they've put plans for such training on the back-burner while they continue efforts to improve network security, including through new tools and products as well as additional levels of monitoring and inspection. Those improvements are more efficient and longer-lasting than educating thousands of workers who may not be in their jobs permanently, contends Rob Mancini, the District's chief technology officer
"You don't start talking about what people should do unless you know you've got protections in place to help," Mancini said in an interview. "You don't go educating users until you've got something behind it."
The federal government has identified cybersecurity as a critical priority, unveiling new efforts to fight the theft of trade secrets and discourage intellectual property theft. In his State of the Union address, President Barack Obama urged Congress to pass legislation to help protect computer networks from attack and warned that American enemies are exploring ways to sabotage the power grid, financial institutions and air traffic control system. Companies including Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft and Apple have been recently hacked, as have financial services companies that maintain credit card account information.
State governments, repositories of personnel information, financial data, emergency operations plans, health care records and other documents, are particularly vulnerable targets. A 2012 study by the Deloitte consulting firm and the National Association of State Chief Information Officers found that less than a quarter of the state information security chiefs felt confident in their state's ability to protect data from an outside threat.
D.C. officials, recognizing the problem, organized an exercise last April to gauge the government's cyber-attack readiness.

|Career highlights and awards
Jon Keith Diebler (born June 22, 1988) is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for Pınar Karşıyaka of the Turkish Basketball League. He played four seasons at Ohio State University. He holds the Ohio high school career scoring record and the Ohio State University and Big Ten career three-point field goals records. He also tied Chris Hill for the Big Ten single-game three-point record.
High school career[edit]
Diebler played his freshman season at Fostoria High School before his father, Keith, accepted a head coaching position at Upper Sandusky High School, which Jon attended for his remaining three seasons.[1]
He scored 77 points in a 105-100 win over Tiffin Columbian as a junior. In his sophomore year, the Upper Sandusky Rams won the state championship, coached by his father. As a senior he averaged 41.2 points, 12.3 rebounds, and six assists per game. Diebler ended his high school career with 3,208 points, more than Ohio high school greats Jay Burson (2,958), Luke Kennard (2,652), LeBron James (2,646), Bob Huggins (2,438), Jerry Lucas (2,438), Jamar Butler (2,412) and Jim Jackson (2,328).[2]
He won Mr. Basketball his senior year and lead his team on a trip to the state championship. Despite having his nose broken in three places on a layup attempt in the final quarter of the Division II Regional Championship game, he helped the team reach the state finals game while scoring 48 points in a three-point loss to Dayton Dunbar. It was the third-highest scoring effort ever in an OHSAA state championship game.
Considered a four-star recruit by Rivals.com, Diebler was listed as the No. 14 shooting guard and the No. 60 player in the nation in 2007.[3]
College career[edit]
On March 13, 2010, Diebler surpassed Jamar Butler for the Ohio State record for three-point field goals made.[4] Diebler finished the 2009–10 season averaging 37.2 minutes per game. On March 1, 2011, he made 10 three-pointers in a row while finishing 10 for 12, breaking the Ohio State record for most three-pointers in a game. On March 6, 2011, during Ohio State's senior day, Diebler made 7 three-pointers, finishing with 27 points against Wisconsin.[5]
Diebler started 115 games during his time at OSU, including every game since the start of his sophomore year.[6]
Professional career[edit]
On June 6, 2011, Diebler traveled to Portland to participate in a pre-draft workout[7] with the Trail Blazers. Diebler was drafted in the second round of the 2011 NBA Draft by the Trail Blazers.
In August 2011, he signed a one-year contract with the Panionios.[8][9] On July 20, 2012, Diebler's draft rights were traded to the Houston Rockets in a three team deal.[10] In the summer of 2012, he signed a contract with the Pınar Karşıyaka of the Turkish Basketball League.[11]

The Milwaukee Brewers' surge has been aided by a pair of series against the lowly Chicago Cubs, and now an unexpected offensive source. Jeff Bianchi and the Brewers look to continue capitalizing on one of baseball's worst teams and extend their longest winning streak in the all-time series Wednesday night at Wrigley Field. Milwaukee (61-67) has won seven of eight, with five of those victories coming against Chicago (49-79). The Brewers are 12-3 versus the Cubs this season, and have won seven consecutive meetings for the longest winning streak by either team in an all-time series that dates to 1997. Milwaukee has outscored Chicago 48-17 and batted .294 with 13 homers during that seven-game run. The one-sided series continued Tuesday, with the Brewers winning 4-1 after pounding out a season-high 21 hits to win the opener of this four-game set 15-4 a day earlier. Bianchi, who was released by the Cubs in January, provided the difference early Tuesday, connecting for a three-run, s...

What does it say about Jordan Pacheco's disappearing act that some of us, ahem, didn't even realize he was finally gone? Probably says more about a fan's loss of faith than anything.
How did this guy not make it with the Colorado Rockies? I loved him. He'd shown he could hit, though we're now a couple of seasons removed from that demonstration. He played anywhere he was asked: first base, third base, second base, outfield, and this year he became the backup catcher, doing a serviceable job in all of these roles. (He was best at third, in my opinion.)
Gap hitter. Doubles guy. in 2012, he hit .309 with 32 doubles, five homers and 54 RBI in 132 games. He was poised for a breakout. We kept thinking the power numbers would come, but nope. And even the outfield gaps were now mostly beyond his reach. His patience at the plate simply vanished–easy pickings for the slider throwers who knew he couldn't hit the pitch and wouldn't adjust his approach. So wary of the breaking ball that he couldn't catch up to a good fastball anymore. He hit .239 last season and was at .236 this year. In two years, from the answer to a question mark. Unbelievable.
Pacheco's 28 now, and he's been lapped by newer dudes the Rockies have developed or acquired … Charlie Blackmon (finally? is it real?), Charlie Culberson, Brendan Barnes, Corey Dickerson, guys who'll do anything for the team, even hit. Pacheco couldn't, or wouldn't, do that anymore.
It is a good sign, perhaps, that the Rockies are through "living with" never-will-be types: Eric Young Jr., Jonathan Herrera (currently just as unwatchable with the Red Sox), Tyler Colvin, Ubaldo Jimenez. Chris Nelson, Dexter Fowler. None ever more than an occasional tease. All gone and mostly forgotten. And Pacheco too had maxed out his options and opportunities in Denver.
Maybe Pacheco was stuck in a rut. Maybe he'd become disenchanted with being a "rover" and a bench guy. Maybe he'll use this wakeup call to become the guy for the Arizona Diamondbacks (who just grabbed him off waivers) that he probably should have been for the Rox.
If not, there's a long, long list of — and usually a job somewhere for — backup catchers who can't hit a lick. It's just a shame Jordan Pacheco might end up on it.

NBC Set To Surpass Record $1B In National TV, Digital Ad Sales Around Games
Published July 25, 2012
EARLY SCREENINGS: USA TODAY's Levin & Bianco report NBC for the first time will "air commercial-free sneak previews of two series during Olympics coverage." The Matthew Perry-led comedy "Go On" will air its pilot episode Aug. 8, while "Animal Practice" will premiere Aug. 12 after the Closing Ceremony. A six-minute teaser "for the drama 'Revolution,' due Sept. 17 from producer J.J. Abrams, also will air after a key swimming event Aug. 4." NBC Entertainment Chair Bob Greenblatt said, "We knew that if we were going to wait five or six weeks (after the Games), that would be a mistake, which is why we decided to premiere everything early" (USA TODAY, 7/25). In L.A., James & Collins note the Games will "pay dividends to NBC that won't show up directly on a balance sheet." While the Games are on, the net "will have valuable exclusive content for its critical and still highly profitable 'Today' franchise." The event "helps NBC build its sports division," including NBC Sports Network (L.A. TIMES, 7/25).
LOCAL DOMINATION: The GUARDIAN's John Plunkett noted the BBC's coverage of the Games "has begun with the wholesale shift of its news and sport programmes to east London and the first event live from the Millennium Stadium." BBC1, BBC3 and "24 dedicated digital services means it will also be the biggest reality TV event the small screen has ever seen." Non-sports fans will be able to "seek refuge on BBC2, to where popular BBC1 shows such as EastEnders and Holby City will move for the duration of the games." Coverage of the games begins today with the British women's soccer team's opening match against New Zealand. BBC1's coverage will "begin at 6am every day and continue until 1am" London time (GUARDIAN.co.uk, 7/24).

When Miss Mexico and former Mt. SAC student Beatriz Cazares, 27, walked into the spotlights and microphones of the press in Hollywood, she greeted them with grace, style and enthusiasm. Little did she know that entertainment news show TMZ would not only ridicule her for being a Mexican without an accent, but would also go on to bash her for attending Mt. SAC Community College and pursuing a community college education.
Although the TMZ interview with Cazares may have consisted of other questions, producers chose to air only one: "How was it tonight?"
She gushed as she talked of her wonderful experience as a contestant in the Miss Queen of the Universe contest. Immediately after her response, TMZ commented on her nonexistent Mexican accent and went on to attack her for attending Mt. SAC. They continued using Mt. SAC as the brunt of their jokes, making fun of a community college education and throwing out insults like saying that only seven students have ever graduated the college. TMZ host Harvey Levin continued to laugh hysterically at the idea of someone attending a community college.
Their only chance at redemption was lost when one of their staff members admitted to attending the college, but even after his failed attempt to defend Mt. SAC, he joined his peers as they mocked not only Miss Mexico, but the more than 60,000 students attending Mt. SAC. Cazares said she was at a loss for words when she saw the TMZ footage that aired on Monday.
"Shame on them," said Cazares. "It was really insulting. I was shocked and disgusted." She said that discrediting someone's reputation and talking bad against their education is unfair and that so many amazing people come out of community colleges.
"I feel very proud of this community college, especially the help," Cazares said. "Don't go putting down a community college. Some of us simply do not have the resources to attend a university."
This is not the first time TMZ has been accused of racism. Kim Kardashian recently called out TMZ for being racist against her and Kanye West as an interracial couple. In 2012, TMZ interviewed the Mexican rock group Mana and asked them a racist question, "American rock bands get underwear thrown at them; do you get underwear thrown at you or Tapatio packets?"
As for the insults flung at Mt. SAC, the college is not only known for its academic achievements, but also for its outstanding athletics program, which has turned out NFL superstars such as Delanie Walker and Superbowl winners Antonio Pierce and Bruce Irvin and a stadium that will host the 2020 Olympic Trials. Various programs, such as forensics, journalism, theatre, and music to name just a few, have gone on to win national competitions beating major universities for first place. The student success stories are endless, with transfer students going on to attend the most prestigious universities.
Jim Jenkins, Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences, was appalled.
"I think it's always difficult to watch something where people who have an established voice within the system, [and] use that voice to put people down who don't have the same voice," said Jenkins. "Who knows what this achievement means to her, but it is hard won and hard worked for, and for them to mock it is rather pathetic."
In response to the claim by TMZ that only seven students have graduated from Mt. SAC, last year alone, 2,100 students earned a degree, and 946 transferred to a four-year institution. TMZ could not be reached for comment.
Jenkins wanted to remind students of not only why they attend Mt. SAC, but also why the faculty and staff keep coming to work every day.
"Teachers, managers, and faculty deeply, profoundly, and genuinely care about their time here, no one is doing it for the money. It is for the opportunity to change [students] lives," said Jenkins. "We believe in them and their potential, there is nothing more worthy of our time than their future, keep going."
Cazares, who was born in Mexico and raised in California since the age of 3, is representing her native country as Miss Mexico in the Queen of the Universe 2014 pageant. She was pursuing a business degree at Mt. SAC and planned to transfer UCLA but put her plans on hold in the summer of 2013 to focus on the pageant. Cazares said she wants to be a role model for Hispanic women and children.
"If I can be a role model to anyone, I feel blessed," Cazares said.

To go or not to go on a FREE vacation?!?
Comments (6)
I would go :-) My hubby would have no issue's with it. he would TRRRRRYYYY to find a way to come for a few days. depending it was
Momma to Maliyah&Aralyn[7] Kamryn [6] Caleb [5] Jordyn [4] & Aspen [2] & Jared Alexander due [06.29.15]
So PROUD to be CANADIAN!!!!!
Would you be paying for the gas to drive down there? Cause that alone would be expensive! And I couldn't imagine driving that far alone in the car with one of my LOs. That said, if you want to go and can afford it I dont think your DH should be giving you crap about it.
Go Go Go Go GOoooooooooooooo!!!! Go for me!!!!
"The Puppy Momma" to my 5 fur babies and soon to be Mommy to a long awaited Rainbow September Baby!!
I think you should go. Your husband should want you and the kids to do and experience new and fun things. He shouldn't try to make you feel gulity. What kinds of things are you going to do in Florida? You say you are just going to pay for food. But what about other things like theme parks/water parks? Are you going to go to Disney? I think you should go and have a great time!

Debut solo exhibition of Lauren Allen, Camberwell graduate and winner of the Vanguard Prize 2013
AboutDelving into the world of architecture, Lauren Allen's most recent body of work brings recognisable elements of buildings from existing environments into the gallery space. The artist intends to initiate a conversation between the viewer and the built environment through the work's manipulation of size, material and interpretation. Drawing from Modernistic/Brutalist industrial and residential buildings, Lauren Allen plays with the nature of materials such as concrete, fabric, cement and glass. The work compares the form and mass of architecture with personal interaction of space and ownership to form an abstraction of the quotidian. This exhibition marks the completion of Lauren Allen's 12 month residency at Vanguard Court Studios. Lauren Allen graduated from Camberwell College of Arts in 2013 with a BA in Painting and is currently living and working in London.

What i was looking for
November 13, 2013
Wanted something that was light to carry but also would do the job of keeping my granddaughter's beach tent in place. we tried metal tent pegs but these just disappeared into the sand. the pegs we purchased did the job.
September 16, 2013
the places i work rarely provide the kind of ground usually provided on holiday campsites and the pegs often have to deal with stony or old tarmac surfaces the yellow plastic pegs are the best for use on these kinds of ground as they are less likely to bend and buckle under the mallet.

I have pulled together resources so that those who purchased Creative Memories StoryBook Creator digital scrapbooking software (now called Panstoria Artisan) or Memory Manager photo editing and organization software (now called Panstoria Historian) can have a "one stop shop" for making the most of their investment, even though Creative Memories does not support their software anymore.
I also hope to introduce new customers to the creativity and fun of digital scrapbooking – taking digital photos and artwork and using Panstoria Artisan software to create beautiful projects that can be produced as books, calendars and gift items. I hope that Photos4Generations.com will be a place where folks can learn and find motivation for completing their photo projects in a creative and timely manner.
And, finally, I'm thrilled to share a fresh new product line as a supplier for the newly formed CM Group, with longtime favorite Creative Memories traditional scrapbooking supplies and a whole new generation of quick and easy photo solutions via our Ahni & Zoe line!

Dine Al Fresco at These Lounge-Worthy East Bay Spots
On the nights when you're getting blown away in San Francisco, or chilled to the bone by Karl the Fog, head to the East Bay for a warmer dining experience.
Gastronomes Hit the Jackpot in Reno
There are many things you may not know about the Biggest Little City. For one, the locavore and microfarming philosophies championed in the Bay Area have reached this mountain town, where sushi lunches, food trucks (and bikes!), and curry and basil ice cream are now a thing. Here are the best places to chow down in Reno.
Road Trip! 5 Spring Mountain Destinations in Driving Distance of SF
Spring Break is typically celebrated on the beach, but these five mountain locations less than 350 miles from San Francisco can give you a unique spring trip experience. Whether you want to do some spring skiing, drink and dine, hike and bike or mellow out in a hot spring, these mountain destinations are close to home.
Hawker Fare Brings Pricey Southeast Asian Street Food to the Mission
There is not much I can actually claim to know anything about, but given my Southeast Asian heritage—and the fact that I spent the majority of my 20s traveling the backpacker circuit through that part of the world—I feel confident about my knowledge and familiarity with the cuisines of the region. So when Michelin-starred chef James Syhabout recently opened the second outpost of his Thai street-food eatery Hawker Fare in the Valencia Street corridor, we summoned a First World tuk-tuk (aka an Uber) to whisk us there, stat. No reason to keep nostalgia waiting.

SF's Best Fried Chicken Sandwiches, Ranked
Somewhere in between San Francisco's overwrought burrito worship and our love for all things hamburger, we allowed the fried chicken sandwich to fall through the cracks. Blame it on Chick-fil-A, blame it on Rio. But there are a bevy of choice crispy fowl sandwiches from which to choose. Here are a few of our favorites, ranked by worthiness in the canon of fried chicken sandos:
Taste Testing the New 49ers Menu at Levi's Stadium
You might get a little confused driving up to the new home of the Niners in Santa Clara. At first glance, Levi's Stadium looks a lot like a Levi's store—especially since there's nary a 49ers logo in sight—but you won't find any denim wares inside the foodie haven (which also happens to host football games).

Team Excited Entropy : Rodriguez Prepsage
Sketchbook for Team Rodriguez and Prepsage
Team Chow
For this Team Chow you will be required to design six characters that make up the 'protaganist' side of the game/tv show/ect that we are pretending to create. There will be no villians/antagonists this round.
* Can be changed according to genre. ie, mechanical = magical = steampowered, car = boat = horse, etc.
** You may do two version of this, if you wish.
The Hero
- Female, between 20 - 30. Has no memory of anything beyond a year before present.
- Stubborn to a fault, but unswervingly loyal to those she cares about, convinced that she could lose her memory of them at any time she makes the most of every moment.
- Has a tendency to say things before she thinks about them.
- Rumoured to have a second personality that can remember everything from before, a 'dark' side, as it were, with totally different personality traits. **
- A quick learner, but unlikely to pay attention unless something immediately catches her interest.
- Searching for her past but ultimately easily caught up in the present and the worries of others, tending to think of other people before herself.
- Found (to her horror) that she is more than capable of handling herself in a fight, and likely capable of killing.
The Shadow
- Male, between 20 - 30 (should be around Hero's age).
- The only person that the hero has any memory of, beyond the last year (though she can only remember his face), and the only person who might know who she is. He pretends he doesn't know, or refuses to say.
- Seemingly self-absorbed but actually self-destructive, has a tendency to take out his insecurities as malicious remarks on other people.
- Isn't well liked, but doesn't care, or pretends he doesn't.
- Doesn't seem to have any friends except the hero, who he would do anything for, though of course he would never say that. However, though he seems to actively despise the rest of her friends, he cares for them more than he admits.
- Whether he is helping the hero find her memory, or actively hindering her, is unclear. She believes he is helping her. He doesn't necessarily believe that it would help her to find it.
- Often disappears for long periods.
The Protector
- Male or Female, between 25 - 50, well-built
- Found the Hero directly after she had lost her memory, and managed to piece her back together.
- Strong and loyal, but prone to worry. Decided to take hero under wing, and began to notice the very strange energies* and events that surrounded her.
- Completely distrusts the Shadow and the Sage and believes they are actively working against the Hero's interests, but defer's to the Hero's opinion and trust of them.
- Strengths lie in activities done with the hands - higher concepts either are not a concern, or are too hard to think about in depth.
- Honest and blunt, so sometimes seems unkind, but never means it.
- Sometimes wonders if accidently stepped in way too deep into something never meant to be approached.
The Sage
- Male or Female, any age
- Does not come from the same country* as hero. Came from far away to find something, and claims that the hero will lead her to it, though will not say what it is - even whether it is a physical object* or a higher plane*.
- Often seems to be looking through the person that he/she is speaking to, and just as frequently stares off into space.
- Seems to disappear whenever trouble starts, but has saved the hero and her companion multiple times to threats that they were completely obvlivious/unaware of.
- Eats very little and sleeps less, and makes very little noise when he/she walks.
The Technician*
- Female, 18 - 28
- Completely in tune with anything mechanical*. Takes things apart / dissects things with disturbing regularity, and while can usually put them back together again sometimes forgets to do so, to the dismay of her friends whose objects* she 'borrows'.
- Fascinated by all methods of transport*, and has an amazingly large memory for all vehicles* and machines* but not for people or places (they are just not important!)
- Initially hired for one-off job by the Hero and the Protector, but took an instant liking to them and convinced them of her usefullness.
- Not very good in rough situations like fights, prefers cold logic of puzzles, as her size tends to work against her. However, pressed into a corner, she can make her technical* knowledge work to her advantage in place of physical prowess.
- wears her heart on her sleeve and is often very cheerful, but takes some blows very hard (a friend getting hurt, etc). Sometimes flighty.
The Rabble Rouser
- Male, 20 - 30 (should be around Hero's age)
- Met Hero + crew rather accidently and they helped out of a bit of trouble (which he had gotten himself into and was almost entirely his fault).
- Developed instant infatuation with Hero + told her that he would help her find her memory. Infatuation may or may not be sincere. Hero does not return it.
- Tends to bring trouble with him, or create it when he gets there, as he grates people's nerves.
- Charming and seemingly hollow, but in select instances with the Shadow has shown that he's invested more in the quest than one would think - though perhaps not for the apparent reasons.
- Has good luck with gambling to match his bad luck with people, and never is wont for money - it tends to find him as easily as he finds it.
- Has an excellent memory for faces as well as for numbers.
- Well groomed, but not as flamboyant as one might expect - unless it is on purpose as part of a bluff.

Gotta a story working its way through my brain that'll i'll post tomorrow
Here's a few quick doodles to get the ball rolling
April 12th, 2009 #3
Hey so here's the story behind our characters
not had a chance to talk about it yet so all
detail are subject to some or complete rewrites
The story is based on a planet around a pre-industrial civilisation. In the past an alien race have come to their planet and subdued and used the population for their own ends. They live seperate and secret but the indigenous population have interacted with the lower levels trading for various goods, mainly food and water. This has led, through time, to some of the alien technology filtering through, apart from weapons which are strictly controlled. Our main protaganists run trade to towns throughout the land, onboard a tech enhanced hovercraft. No dodgy dealings on this ship though, captain's as honest as they come. Now, strange things have been happening to people all over, demons in the forest, an entire town disappeared, mutulated livestock and to top it all there's unrest among the crew as the captain's dark past unfolds and a connection to the alien threat emerges from more than one of the group. Who can be trusted and will it hold together long enough to discover the truth....

Spokane sprang from the ashes of the great fire of 1889 and many distinctive structures, including the Review Tower, were built in early 1890s. But building came to a screeching halt in the panic of 1893. Shaky financing of railroads, a run on gold supplies and hundreds of bank failures resulted in the worst recession the United States had ever seen. But the city of Spokane was building a grand city hall near the falls and there was still optimism that the recession would be temporary. With the former courthouse roof leaking, the county board held a contest to design the new county courthouse that would sit on land north of the river donated by early settler David P. Jenkins. The building should cost no more than $250,000 and the winning designer would win a prize totaling five percent of that cost.

The third class of inductees into the Cynthiana-Harrison Baseball Alumni Hall of Fame will be made Saturday, June 27.
Inductees will be Terry Smith, Scott Fryman, Coach Jim Schmidt, J.B. Schmidt, Richard Dennis, Al Isaac, Mike Wachter, Terry Jones and two contributors to baseball in Harrison County Little League baseball coaches Clarence Jones and Donnie Fight.
I had the honor and priviledge of introducing Camryn Whitaker at the Cynthiana Lion's Club meeting on Tuesday of this week. As all local sports fans are surely aware, Camryn was recently named as a new assistant coach in the University of Kentucky's women's basketball program.
This is not about her exploits either on the court as a player, or on the sidelines as a coach.
Cynthiana angler Shawn Combs has a few stops to make this week before he can head out to his Walmart tour, which will begin at home.
Combs, 37, of Carl Stevens Road, is fishing at Bassfest this week in Paris, Tennessee. However, he will follow that with an appearance in Cynthiana at Walmart.
He will be sharing stories and tips as part of the Forrest L. Wood (FLW) Tournament Trail. Wood was the creator of Ranger Boats.
Combs, who is part of the Georgetown College fishing team, will be helping celebrate National Fishing and Boating Week with FLW.
American Red Cross swimming
lessons to begin registration
The Cynthiana-Harrison County American Red Cross swimming lessons screening and registration for classes will be held Monday, June 8 from 5-6:30 p.m. at the Cynthiana Country Club pool. Prospective students must be six years of age and able to stand flat footed in 3 1/2 feet of water with head and neck above water level. Please bring a bathing suit and a towel. Levels II and III may be limited in enrollment numbers.
The Harrison County Fillies outscored the opposition 24-1 in the two 38th District games as they won their ninth straight district title Wednesday night.
On Tuesday, the Fillies defeated Robertson County in three innings, 16-0, and Wednesday night won the championship, 8-1, over Nicholas County.
Junior Jami Davis pitched the game Wednesday allowing six hits and two walks over the seven innings.
Jonna Watkins pitched the distance for Nicholas County allowing 11 hits and three walks. Davis struck out seven and Watkins fanned four.

auntkatie24-we have one with the automatic 6 speed transmission. The only way we get good gas mileage out of it is to put 38-40 psi in the tires ,do not use the cruise control at all,turn on the econ button and drive under 65 miles per hour. Driving with the econ button on means you have to push the gas pedal half way to the floor ( with the auto trans anyway) before it will go up a hill but hey,we need to get as best mileage as we can out of this car. I just tried to just enjoy the car by putting the air pressure back to 32 psi because the car rides a little less harsh and with the econ button off but I got terrified by using a half a tank of gas at only 100 miles. Our KIA is well built but it's a gas hog pure and simple.Report it
As far as all claims by AuntKatie24, she might be living in another country where they have a SX model with manual transmission. I agree with btatr, that there is something fishy with her review; however, if she is located in Australia, for isnstance, she could have bought SX with manual transmission....The name of SX in Australia is SLS....Report it
Hi guys, :) you just started a "new" old discussion about the Rio, so I just want to join in, again :) Btatr, you just proved the point of worknman, for the Rio having bad gas millage. Kia claims 30 Mpg in the city, while you state 24-25..... Kia claims 40 Mpg highway, while you get 37 Mpg.... In both of examples, this is under what Kia claims.... substantually. People need to know about this gas millage, because there are many people who will not like these numbers and will look else where. As for myself, I love my 2012 Kia Rio5 SX; even though, I get city gas millage26-27 Mpg. The ride is excellent, and gas millage is kind of acceptable trade off for me.... right now.Report it
I never claimed you said anything about ECO mode. Unlike you, I drive only in pure automatic mode. My manual driving days are behind me. besides, who wants to go through all of the changes you described. It's much easier, and more fun for me, to let the computer do all of the shifting. You may not like ECO mode but I find that it does work on a flat stretch of the Interstate, increasing my mpg slightly. Finally, if you're getting 38 mpg in that combination of interstate and 18 miles with 22 traffic lights, your mixed mileage results match those of Motor Week, which I thought were inflated. Maybe they weren't? That's significantly higher than the EPA Mixed Rating of 33 mpg and far more than I'm getting in Mixed Driving.Report it
btatr, worknman called the rio gas hog in relative terms. EPA is 30 Mpg, while you and me get 24-26 Mpg....in city EPA is 40 Mpg, while you and me get 35-37 Mpg....in highway. City gas millage is off 5 Mpg, highway gas millage is off 3-4 Mpg. These are big numbers for me and probably for worknman. This type of millage is gotten by cars like Sonata, Camry, Fusion.... It is not normal a 2500lb car to get this type of millage! That is why worknman is unsatisfied. As I said in my previous post, I like my car, and poor gas millage in city will not make me an unhappy customer. What do you mean by this statement :) "dchev, worknman, and/or auntkatie. You aren't fooling me, I know exactly what's going on" I told you once that I have nothing to do with worknman or auntkatie. We are three independent and new Kia customers. Based on our previous cars, we have expectations about our new car...the Rio. If somethings is "wrong" with our new car, we want to share it with internet community. There are always people who read all our comments, so this is kind of help for them to choose what they think would be a good car for their needs.Report it
Please read what I wrote dchev, I did NOT confirm what your buddy worknman said. He called the RIO a gas hog. On what planet is that true? I've said from day one that nobody should expect to get EPA mileage where the test are completed in a lab. As for my last trip yesterday, it was 75-80% highway and I still got over 37 mpg. I'm guessing if the trip would have been 100% highway, even with my A/C running the entire time, I would have gotten between 38-39 mpg. And my MIXED driving is between 31-32 mpg which is pretty close to the EPA rating. Finally, city only driving is where my RIO falls short. In my last all city tank I only got 25 mpg but I'm still pleased overall. In addition, my car is 9 months old and I haven't had a single problem. I know I shouldn't say that because it's like the kiss of death.Report it
You guys with the gas mileage are funny. First of all, Kia is not making any claims to gas mileage. The EPA reviews mileage of vehicles and thus prints that number on window stickers. If your gripes are with anyone, it's them. If you don't think the automakers are going to jump on good numbers they get from the EPA testing you're nuts. I previously had a Nissan Versa 6sp manual transmission. It was rated 32hwy (34 for the CVT). I would say 80% of my driving was hwy with that car. But even on interstates you can record worse mileage than the city number estimates if you drive like a moron. I consistently would get 33-35 mpg in the Versa (always full tanks) because I drive for mileage. I would not call myself a "hypermiler" persay but I'm aware of mileage when I drive and stay very light on the accelerator when I can be. This being said with the Rio rated at 40 I expected to get a little over that highway figure. I have not yet and truth be told I'm slightly disappointed however A) I haven't broken my car in yet (Versa I bought with 22K), the Rio new and B) my comprable commute to my figures with the Versa won't start until school starts in September. That's when I will really be able to test it. My summer job is about 22 miles interstate and 18 miles of 50mph hwy with 22 stoplights (one way). Considering I cannot go over or under 38mpg so far on that commute with the Rio I am very happy. It has been very consistent. Do NOT use the computer for your mileage numbers. My average reads btw 40-43mpg each tank. The math does not add up to that. Every car I have tested the computer's accuracy on is the same (Prius and Ram). They always seem to be between 2 and 4 MPG off in the more actual math. Here is what I personally do for my mileage numbers in the Rio... -95% of the time keep RPMs near or under 3000 in each gear -Use manumatic when accelerating. Select 2nd while stopped. You do not need to use 1st gear with that car from a dead stop. -Let the car downshift on its own when slowing. In manumatic mode it is MUCH more conservative with downshifts than in auto. In auto it downshifts too early when simply coming to a stop. If you can feel a transmission downshift while slowing using brakes it's doing it too early. -Highway crusing stay between 68 and 72mph -Be light on the throttle - let the car coast to red lights as much as possible and let off for downsloping hills. The instant mpg on the computer will help (if equiped). -Don't tailgate, leave yourself plenty of room to adjust slightly to traffic flow - constant braking and accelerating will kill mileage. Try this for one full tank. Calculate on the next fill up without topping off the tank. I have not had a full tank net under 330 miles with that commute.Report it
Hi Kirstie: I appreciate your input as the moderator but why did you remove my comment about the RIO reference AuntKatie's claims? AuntKatie said her manual transmission RIO has "GPS, Heated Seats, Backup Camera, Sirius Sat Radio, automatic folding mirrors, smart key, lock and unlock button on door handle..." That cannot possibly be true. The only RIO Manual Transmission model is the entry level and it does NOT have any of those features mentioned in her post. Those comments are specifically focused on the vehicle. Thank You Kirstie.Report it
Mattman44, here's some advice from me which is not scientific but I think it's sound. Do NOT use Economy Mode unless you're on a relatively flat section of the Interstate. ECO mode works well on the Interstate but it's a negative everywhere else. For those 18 miles with the 22 traffic lights, I would turn OFF Eco Mode and you will have better acceleration and improved fuel economy. Then turn it back on when you're on the Interstate.Report it
btar. I never said anything about ECO mode. My overall review should be out in the next day or so after it is approved by the moderators. In it I say that I think the ECO mode will cause accidents. It's terrible. I used it once and never will again. ECO mode won't work on the interstate anyway because it shortens throttle response as the transmission works through the gears during acceleration. It more or less "retards acceleration" dropping the transmission into higher gears at lower speeds as you accelerate. I use the manumatic function of the transmission so that I choose the upshifts...not the car (sliding the gearshift over to the left). I hate the auto transmission. I'm glad I can use the +/- to shift myself.Report it
One correction, my 37 mpg figure was NOT all highway, it involved a portion of driving on a two lane highway with traffic lights. That means periodically stopping and starting at red lights. I still have to find the time to go on a long drive on the Interstate without any stop and go driving. I'm dying to find out what my mpg will be. I read a couple of reviews on the net by guys who claimed to get over 40 mpg on their interstate journeys. But I want to confirm that for myself before I believe it.Report it
I understand what you are saying. I just got out of a manual car so for me I'm not ready to give up that control yet I guess. I'm not totally upset about the 38mpg I'm getting. I just blew away the Versa EPA numbers by so much I was expecting that more proportionally to the Rio I guess. In the summer with the Versa I would get 33mpg most tanks with that same commute (only 1mpg over it's EPA hwy sticker). The good thing about the lights with the manual is I could always coast to a red light stop in neutral. I can in the Rio too by switching it to N but that sort of becomes annoying. My first full tank road trip with it will be in October from New Jersey to North Carolina so I'm anxious to see what I can do there.Report it
