Product description
"Human Osteology, Second Edition" is designed for students and professionals who wish to advance their osteological skills in terms of accurately identifying human skeletal remains, however isolated and fragmentary. These remains can then be used to deduce information about the original lives of the deceased individuals. This book will continue to be an essential text for courses on the human skeleton, as well as a basic reference and field manual for professional osteologists and anatomists, forensic scientists, paleontologists, and archaeologists. "Human Osteology, Second Edition" includes nearly a decade of advances in osteological research since the first edition. Each chapter has been strengthened and updated, including a new chapter on molecular osteology and four new case studies drawn from more recent research. This edition also includes a valuable guide to electronic resources in osteology. It is lavishly illustrated with hundreds of exceptional photographs and drawings specifically designed to show a maximum amount of anatomical information. It is based on nearly 25 years of teaching human osteology. Skeletal parts are shown life-size for ease of study and use. Four new case studies emphasize the correct and positive identification of human bones and teeth, which is fundamental in paleontology, archaeology, and forensic science.

Forget neoprene cozies: Minneapolis-based artist Joel Arce has perhaps the most unusual product imaginable to keep bottled brew chilled in his roadkill beer cozy made out of a dead squirrel. The 25-year-old found the squirrel, skinned it and tanned its hide, shaping it to accommodate a 12-ounce beer bottle.
As you can see, the roadkill beer cozy leaves just enough room for you to drink the beer without touching the dead squirrel's lips. Arce says that he hopes to one day make jewelry from the bones of roadkill and other animals that died naturally, saying that this method would be "a way of showing some respect to the animal instead of getting bones from people that killed the animal to make a profit."

Adrian Beltre predicts Prince Fielder will win AL MVP in 2014
MORE: FA tracker: position players | FA tracker: pitchers
"He's going to get the MVP. It's his time to win it. My job is to protect him so that he gets there."
Sure, file under "what do you expect him to say?" if you like, but that's a pretty specific declaration on Beltre's part. To be sure, Fielder is perhaps reinvigorated by the trade, has reportedly dropped a good bit of weight this winter and will be batting regularly in the three hole. All of that plus the skills already in place could indeed yield a big year for the 29-year-old slugger.
On the other hand, Fielder is coming off perhaps the least productive season of his career: 25 homers (a full-season career low), 120 OPS+ (career OPS+ of 144 coming into 2013) and some troubling trends in terms of plate discipline and raw power indicators.
With that said, rarely is anything in baseball perfectly linear in its journey, so a bounceback for a hitter like Fielder, who has indeed performed at an MVP-caliber level in the recent past, is certainly plausible.

Indiana Senior
40: 5.30 (estimated)
Has good size and does a nice job locking onto defenders. Can get on 2nd level, lock on, and drive defender down the field. Does a nice job on the kick out block, getting good position. Shows enough athleticism to pull outside. Plays with good mean streak. Does a decent job getting into his set and shows good technique.
Doesn't have great feet and struggles matching up against speed. Needs to do a better job adjusting in space. Gets beat by swim move and the quick inside move much too easily. Sets up with his hands too low to deliver proper punch at times. Needs to improve his hand use as a run blocker. Lacks ideal pop for a player his size and blocks too high at times. Doesn't get much push in short-yardage situations. Misses too many assignments. Durability is a concern.
Brewer is a nice developmental right tackle with good size. A two-year starter at right tackle, starting 21 games over his final two seasons. Missed time in 3 of his 4 years with foot and ankle injuries. Missed 3 games this past year due to an ankle injury. His sophomore year ended prematurely with an ankle injury, missing final 4 games, and missed all of his freshman year with a foot injury.
You see flashes of potential from Brewer that makes you think if he can get NFL coaching, he can be a decent starter down the road. But he's a long-term developmental guy that the best you can probably hope for is with three or four years on the bench, he can become a decent starter. But more than likely he's a career backup that really needs to get better as a run blocker if he wants to stick long-term in the pros. He's just not as good there as you'd want a player with his size. He's more of a technician than athletic/physical specimen, but his technique isn't as sound as you'd like. He'll have to be covered up by a tight end frequently to get by against speed rushers at the next level. He's a guy that I think can compete for a reserve spot, but ultimately I don't see him sticking beyond four or five years unless he takes well to NFL coaching and really polishes up his technique.
Brewer can compete as a reserve here in Atlanta, but because he's a limited run blocker, he doesn't really offer an upgrade over Svitek. He could stick around for some time and add some depth, but he doesn't really have the upside to think he's a good heir apparent and successor to Clabo on the right side down the road, and doesn't have the athleticism you want to see in a swing tackle. He's more of a body than a legit prospect for the Falcons.
Because he does have some upside to be a quality reserve and OK starter down the road, Brewer is a nice late round pick that could come off the board in the fifth or sixth round.
1-poor, 2-weak, 3-above average, 4-very good, 5-elite
Strength: 3.0
Pass Blocking: 2.0
Run Blocking: 2.5

Training courses in Australia
Many training courses catering for differing levels of skill (and budget) are conducted in Australia each year.
Miles regularly conducts adventure training courses in NSW aimed at bigger bikes - a previous one here and next one on 5-6/7/06 here. Cost usually around the $250 mark
Lyndon conducts courses, usually in Victoria, last known one here
BMW provides a adv course using supplied F650 bikes, last known course here. Cost $850
Please post in this thread if you know of an upcoming course but start any reports on the actual course as a new thread.
I will add any further course reports to this index post as they occur.

ADV bike courses, Central Coast NSW
There have been a few people coment on the lack of advbike training available locally (near Sydney).
A thread on the previous course can be seen by clicking HERE
As I work as I work in the rider training industry, for http://www.wheel-skills.com.au/ , At Wyong, I talked to the boss about running courses, and this is what we have come up with.
We can offer a full days training (8 hours +) for $165. But we need at least 4 people per course for it to be viable. There is a maximum of 6 students per course, to ensure the needs of each individual can be focused on.
Weekday course's are easy to organise, and would require minimal notice to organise. Weekend courses are no worries either, but would need to start at 7 a.m, and may need up to a months notice.
We do offer one on one training at $140 for 3 hours, so that option is available too. But even if you don't have 4-5 friends that want to do a course, the best option is to contact the office, so we can fit you into a group, as the course will be much more time, for less dollars.
To book into a course you need to ring / email our office.
The contact details for the office are;
ph - (02) 4952 4458
Email - firstname.lastname@example.com
If there are any enquires relating to course content, suitability, etc, contact me via pm here or email email@example.com
The Curriculum
Intro (in classroom) - Introduce instructor/s and students to each other, theory lesson on off road riding posture, cornering techniques, Slide avoidance / correction and braking technique.
Then do on bike lessons on the concrete training range.
1. Low speed maneuvering -work on posture, balance, turns, clutch & throttle control.
2. Braking - from about 20 -30 km/h.
Once every one has developed the correct technique on the concrete area, we would have a 20 min morning tea break, then move to the dirt area and practice the same skills.
3. Then Ascents and descents on dirt
4. Lunch break
5. Obstacle crossing techniques (theory only) erosion mounds, water obstacles and rough terrain.
Then go put it all into practice out in Olney, Wyong and
The course will be suitable for novices and experienced riders. there are also hire bikes avaiable, SL250's.

But there is always a boulevard between getting everything you want and compromising your principles.
I walk a lot around the city, I go down to the beach, I like the boulevard.
The boulevard Carnot, the seedy, downtrodden street that leads out of town, proved the point on my last night there.
1769, from French boulevard (15c.), originally "top surface of a military rampart," from a garbled attempt to adopt Middle Dutch bolwerc "wall of a fortification" (see bulwark) into French, which lacks a -w-. The notion is of a promenade laid out atop demolished city walls, a way which would be much wider than urban streets. Originally in English with conscious echoes of Paris; since 1929, in U.S., used of multi-lane limited-access urban highways. Early French attempts to digest the Dutch word also include boloart, boulever, boloirque, bollvercq.

Whoever said that perfection is unattainable, never fell in love." Danielle Traylor
Hi, I'm, looking for that special girl in my life to explore new things with. I've always wanted to travel but I just haven't found time or the right person to share it with. In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, fishing, kayaking, hiking and snowboarding. There's nothing like waking up on the ocean and breathing in the fresh salty breeze, watching the sunrise on the horizon or sitting on a cliff 1000s of feet up watching the sunset. The only thing that could make it sweeter is to have someone to share those moments with. I've tried bungee jumping and it was awesome! There are other extreme activities I would love to try, such as skydiving and white water rafting. Although being outdoors is great, I also enjoy spending time going out to the movies, having nice dinners, shopping, reading a good book, or staying at home cuddling on the couch with my girl and a DVD. It makes me happy to see her happy. I'm not into playing games. I am willing to put a lot of effort into my relationships although the good ones often don't require much. I believe trust and communication are the keys to a successful relationship. I am extremely patient almost to a fault. Most of my friends think I am too nice. I'm just trying to find someone who enjoys spending time with me as much as I do with her, someone who brings a smile to my face with just the thought of her. Write me or just send me a wink if you're interested to hear more, because I would love to hear from you.

I'm pretty much a sucker for anything sweet :D
I work hard during the week and I play hard on the weekends. I enjoy hiking, fishing, kayaking, snowboarding, tennis, bowling, billiards and shopping. Although I enjoy outdoor activities, a DVD or dinner at home with great company is just as good.

A Mankato man faces felony charges after a domestic assault incident early Sunday morning led to standoff with area SWAT teams that lasted several hours. 24-year-old Shane Darrel Heiden was arrested at his home on Mills Street in Mankato after several hours of negotiation with the Minnesota River Valley Tactical Response Team and the South Central Drug Investigative Unit Tactical Team. Police had initially responded to a domestic call in a vehicle at shortly after 2am Sunday, and were then called again later about continuing threatening incidents by the same suspect. Heiden was alone at the house at the time, and he was arrested without incident at 5am after several hours of negotiation during which he allegedly threatened his girlfriend and her family, as well as law enforcement officers. He faces charges of terroristic threats, domestic assault and criminal damage to property.

Comments about Genuine Health Vegan Proteins+, Natural Vanilla, 28 oz:
I have tried just about all the vegan protein powders out there, and this is far and away the best on the market. The Double Chocolate tastes fabulous. I've been buying it at my local market but will start ordering it through this site now. The company, Genuine Health, also makes an equivalent protein bar, but apparently that is available only in Canada. Wish it were available here in the USA. I'd buy it in s flash. All the others have waaay too much sugar content.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great vegetable protein
By Brenda Sue
from Upper Michigan
See all my reviews
I use this to make healthy smoothies for meal replacements. Blend it wih juice, tea, spinach, fruit, and ice, the sip throughout the mmorning, especially after my workout. This is the best tasting non-whey product I have tried.

describe yourself Runner, Workout Daily
I was looking for a daily protein supplement that I could use every morning (as opposed to a recovery protein after weight training workouts). I'm a vegetarian, not a vegan, but I find that the vegan protein powders don't have the chemical additives that a lot of the other non-vegan protein powders do. I put this is in smoothie that I make in a bullet blender. I put in my frozen fruit first, then soy milk, then a half a scoop of this, then a pinch of bee pollen.The flavor is good. Better than most vegan powders anyway. I'll even just use this and a little light vanilla soy milk and blend it up and it's pretty tasty if you're in a rush.I'd recommend this as a daily supplement.

Good for an occasional quick breakfast with fruit and fruit juice for a smoothie. Tastes good. Cannot use it daily as it causes stomach bloat.

I'm vegan and this is my primary protein choice. Very happy with the taste and have recommended to my friends and family.
Good taste!
By veggiebabe
from Raleigh, NC
Surprisingly good taste - but best mixed with something other than water. I mix with rice milk or almond milk. Works well if you put in a cocktail shaker or blender. Excellent ingredients too.
For an excellent, great-tasting, easy to digest source of healthy protein and amino acids to maintain good health*, mix 1 scoop (26.9g) of Vegan Proteins+ in 1 cup (8 oz) of pure water or your favorite beverage. Take once daily or as needed. Store in a cool, dry place.

An Arctic Journey in a Changing World

Program: An Arctic Journey in a Changing World
Broadcast Date: Dec. 4, 2008
In 1994, Okoboji, Iowa native David Thoreson and five others aboard a sailboat called Cloud Nine attempted to cross the famed Northwest Passage -- a perilous stretch of water connecting the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans above North America. But the explorers were thwarted in their attempt when Cloud Nine became trapped in Arctic ice.
Thoreson returned to the Arctic in 2007, and found himself in a much different polar environment. Though he says his tale is more story-telling than science, Thoreson believes he is "the canary just back from the coal mine, the ground zero of climate change."

Gunshots will ring out through the halls of Milford High School next month as part of an "edgy" new safety training program being performed for teachers in the school district.
Gunshots will ring out through the halls of Milford High School next month as part of an "edgy" new safety training program being performed for teachers in the school district.
"I think we should go there," said Superintendent Bob Tremblay of the new training program, which will include real gunshots and an "intruder" banging on classroom doors.
The Milford Public Schools will be one of the first in the country to offer such training when it's performed on March 15.
"This is going to be unique and powerful training to make sure that our staff can think on its feet in the event of a violent situation," Tremblay said. "I want to make sure that our schools are the safest in the country, and they will be."
Tremblay said after the deadly Sandy Hook shooting in Newtown, Conn., school districts need to reconsider the policy of staying in lockdown when a violent intruder is in the building.
"After Columbine, we learned that many of the victims could've gotten away if they ran," Tremblay said.
The new policy within the Milford schools will be not only to run and hide, but also to fight back if necessary.
A SWAT team, along with officers from the Milford Police Department, will be helping to show teachers how to do just that.
"If you're trapped in a room with the bad guy coming through, you need to figure out what to break off a table to use as a weapon," Tremblay said. "We're going to teach them how to fight for their lives."
Even the district attorney's office has asked to watch the training, with the possibility of expanding it to other school districts.
Tremblay said the training is meant to be shocking for teachers and that it will provide them with a real-life experience for this type of situation. He said many teachers won't know what a gunshot sounds like, but, with this training, they'll be able to recognize it right away.
"I think we should make our teachers feel empowered," Tremblay said, "so that if this happens in our building, they'll know what to do."

Over the past 20 years the pace and scale of urbanization in Asia has been unprecedented," says Jonathan D. Solomon, the curator of Practical Utopias: Global Urbanism in Hong Kong, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore and Tokyo, an exhibition at AIA New York's Center for Architecture. "Asia today is a vast experiment in what makes a city," says Solomon, associate dean at the Syracuse University School of Architecture, who lived in Hong Kong for six years before recently returning to the U.S.
The exhibition highlights how multiuse complexes–cities within cities comprising hotels, offices, financial centers, recreational areas, public gardens, transportation links and retail facilities–maximize limited space in new ways. Innovative "green" engineering and technology feature prominently in these sites. Although there are drawbacks to this flight to the cities, such as overcrowding, class tension and environmental issues, these shimmering edifices are testaments to Asia's arrival in the 21st century. (The show runs through Jan. 18, 2014 . Details at www.aiany.org.)

NYSE Regulation has determined that the Company is no longer suitable for continued listing, as it has failed to file on a timely basis with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2010 ("Annual Report"), as required by Section 802.01E of the Exchange's Listed Company Manual (the "Manual").
Trading in the Company's Securities has been halted since April 20, 2011, after four of the six independent members of the Company's Board of Directors resigned, citing in their resignation letters their dissatisfaction with the level of cooperation by the Company's management in the ongoing independent review of the Company's internal controls and the ongoing independent investigation of the Company's business practices being conducted by the Company's Special Investigation Committee.
The Company subsequently appointed four new directors, two of whom were independent under Exchange listing standards, and reconstituted the Special Investigation Committee under the leadership of one of the new independent directors. The reconstituted Special Investigation Committee commenced forensic investigative work that has not yet been completed.
As provided by Section 802.01E of the Manual, the Company was given an initial six-month period after the extended filing due date for its Annual Report to regain compliance. The Company was unable to file its Annual Report within this period and therefore requested an extension of time to regain compliance, pursuant to the Exchange's discretionary authority under Section 802.01E to grant an additional compliance period not to exceed six months. After reviewing materials submitted by the Company in connection with this request, NYSE Regulation decided to initiate delisting proceedings. This decision was reached in light of the continued uncertainty with respect to the timing of the Company's filing of its Annual Report.
NYSE Regulation notes that it may make an appraisal of, and determine on an individual basis, the suitability for continued listing of an issue in light of all pertinent facts and circumstances whenever it deems such action appropriate. In addition, NYSE Regulation may, at any time, suspend a security if it believes that continued dealings in or listing of the security on the NYSE is not advisable.
The Company has a right to a review of this determination by a Committee of the Board of Directors of NYSE Regulation. Application to the SEC to delist the issue is pending the completion of applicable procedures, including any appeal by the Company of the NYSE staff's decision.

USA Today is reporting that the Department of Education paid a TV host nearly a quarter of a million dollars to promote the administration's "No Child Left Behind" initiative.
This initiative is so ill-conceived and poorly funded that there is no doubt that only propaganda could prop it up.
Anyone who has read David Berliner's The Manufactured Crisis: Myths, Fraud, and the Attack on America's Public Schools knows that "No Child Left Behind" is just one more nail in the coffin that right-wingers have been building for public education for a long time.
For those unfamiliar with Dr. Berliner's work, here's a link to some of his work that is published on the web. His essay, "Educational Psychology Meets the Christian Right" is my favorite. Here's a link to some bio on Dr. Berliner.

The design and planning of an integrated ethanol and gasoline supply chain is addressed, and is composed of harvesting and production sites for ethanol, petroleum refineries, distribution centers where blending takes place, and the retail gas stations where blends of gasoline and ethanol are sold. We postulate a superstructure that combines all the components of the supply chain and different means of transportation, and model this multiscale design problem as a multiperiod MILP model. In order to identify regions where investments are needed and the optimal configuration of the network, a strategic planning model is considered in which gasoline stations are aggregated in different regions. A detailed formulation is considered where regions are disaggregated into gas stations to determine the retrofit projects for the selection of blending pumps over their expected life. Also, the application of these MILP models with two large-scale problems are illustrated. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 59: 4655–4672, 2013

Birds seem to sense coming storm
"What happens to birds in hurricanes?" my editor asked. All I could do was make an educated guess: they fly far away to escape participating in them. I knew that sometimes birds are seen flying busily in the eye of the storm. Others are seen far from their normal habitat.
We always look for magnificent frigate birds here when they are expected in Mexico and South America. Their long wings are perfectly engineered to coast and glide. They seldom have to flap much to get where they are going. Many of them have been long distance travelers this year with this hyper-active hurricane season.
But I have not been lucky enough to see one. They are mostly spotted, drifting high overhead. I looked skyward during Ike whenever I could. Males are black with a red gular pouch which they inflate during breeding. Females are black with a white chest, and young birds have white heads and breasts.
When those terrible winds begin to blow, what do mourning doves and mockingbirds do? I know that domestic animals have a sensitive nervous system that puts them on the alert when there are even small changes in the barometer. I feel that birds also sense these changes. Some of them head for higher ground, farther away from water.
Some must surely hunker down and shelter in place. My friend, Pat Suter, the best local voice for the environment, said that when she knows a hurricane is coming, she puts everything in the edge of the old oleander hedge that surrounds her backyard. "That works fine," she said, "Everyone knows oleanders are the only shrub that keeps its leaves in strong winds; they are tough."
I know that doves and mockingbirds, sparrows and woodpeckers seem to be back at the feeder almost before the sun has come out again. I also know that some small birds are not so lucky.
Some sustain injuries in the strong winds. Others drown in the surplus water generated by the heavy rains.
Phyllis Yochem, a Corpus Christi resident, has studied birds since 1960.

Because the .NET framework supports multiple languages within the platform, it defines a Common Type System (CTS). The CTS defines the basic data types that IL understands. Each .NET compliant language should map its data type to these standard data types. This makes it possible for the 2 languages to communicate with each other by passing/ receiving parameters to and from each other. For example: CTS defines a type, Int32, as integral data type of 32 bits (4 byte) which is mapped by C# through int and VB.net through its Integer data type.
The User Defined data type are the type in which we can defined such data type according to our requirement. Some example of user defined data type are Enumeration and Structure Type. Â Today we will discuss the user defined Data Types. In this article we will learn how to declare and define enumeration data type and structure data type. Also we will see that how we can access/ retrieve the values that are stored in these User defined Types. I hope that this will help you to learn something about Enumeration and Structure Type.

Fitting and Purchasing Dance Shoes with featherdanceshoes.com
Here are a few things our customers should known when purchasing or fitting for a pair of shoes. Keep in mind, the following is a guideline that has worked well for our customers in the past and is considered common knowledge to most experienced dancers. However, everyone is entitled to their own opinion about what is considered "comfortable" or what will work best for their feet. It is ultimately up to the customer to decide how they wish to wear their shoes.
How do you know if a dance shoe fits?
Dance shoes
generally need to fit tighter than regular street shoes. This is to minimize the risk of injury and compensate for any stretching that occurs in the shoe. Dance shoes are like a piece of sports equipment that are made to improve your dancing. As such, they need to be secure on the foot and fit like a glove. This is similar to how mountain climbing and bowling shoes are fitted. After a shoe is danced on a few times, it will begin to shape to a dancers foot and stretch, making the shoes more comfortable over time. However, if a shoe is loose and a dancers foot has enough room to move around, then they dancer will lack the support necessary for comfortable dancing. Movement of the foot inside a dance shoe can cause uncomfortable rubbing and blisters. The heel cup of a dance shoe also must be secure and have no room for any sliding or movement, otherwise dancers run the risk of literally stepping out of their shoes. Please order your American shoe size. All of the shoes on this website are in US sizes so be sure to refer to our International Sizing Chart.
What is the correct fit for a Latin shoe?
Latin shoes are the open toe sandal style shoes. As mentioned before, they need to have a snug fit on both the front end of the shoe and the heel cup. The dancer's heel should sit securely in the back of the shoe with the toes reaching the front end of the insole. Quite a few Latin dancers prefer a much snugger fit and will purposely buy their shoes half size smaller than their shoe sizes to achieve this fit. In these cases, the toes will slightly hang over the front edge of the shoe allowing for more flexibility and a much more attractive point. In International Latin and American Rhythm dancing, the dancer is trained to point their toes like a ballet dancer would. When the toes are pointed, the front of the shoe will be pressed downward and thus create some extra room in the front of the shoe. This is why a lot of dancers prefer to have the shoe very tight. When they point their feet, there is very little room in the front end of the shoe and their toes can cover the excess space created from the point, creating a very beautiful leg line. The foot and leg action and fitting for the shoes are the same for both male and female Latin dancers.
Most female dancers prefer a 2.5 to 3 inch heel to help with turns and to put more weight on the ball of the foot. Male dancers typically wear the 1.5 Cuban Heel.
What is the correct fit for a Ballroom
Ladies' ballroom shoes are the closed toe pump styles. In
International style (Standard dances), ladies are required to wear closed toe, closed
side pump style shoes. They can be worn without a strap or with a single strap on
top of the shoe to keep the shoe on the foot. If the shoe doesn't have any
straps, dancers will usually wear a Clear Plastic Strap. to hold
the shoe in place.
In American style (Smooth dances), ladies also have the option to
wear closed toe shoes with open side and a crossed straps. The rules and aesthetics for
American style are not as strict as in International style and the type of foot action used is slightly different. These types of shoes are designed to provide more flexibility that is similar to Latin sandals. Most female ballroom dancers prefer a heel height of 2 to 2.5 inches. Male ballroom dancers wear a
1 heel ballroom shoe either in plain black leather or a shiny patent leather. Male competitors usually wear the patent leather ballroom shoe. The men also have the option to pick between a full sole traditional ballroom shoe or a split sole ballroom shoe. Split soles provide more flexibility, allowing the dancers to create nicer leg lines and positions. But it's a personal preference whether one wants the
ballroom shoe more flexible or not.

Omar Gallardo's dusty slide into home plate triggered a swarm of blue and red onto the field Saturday.
Gallardo's was the winning run in the Cubs' 6-5 walk-off triumph over the Marlins in La Plaza's minors division championship game.
It was fitting that Gallardo put an end to the game. He finished 4 for 4 at the plate with three runs scored.
Solid in the middle of their order, the Marlins got three hits apiece from the one-town punch of Jared and Jaden.
But it was the Cubbies who came up with a trump card in the final at-bat.
Updates on New Mexico Highlands University athletes competing in the College National Finals Rodeo, being held through Saturday in Casper, Wyo.:
• Outgoing NMHU senior Sarah Zybach stood in 17th place overall in goat tying. She posted times of 7.1 seconds in the first round, 8.4 in the second and 9.5 in the third for an aggregate of 25.2. That's not far off the pace set through three rounds by leaders Bailie Guthrie of West Texas and Jordan Thurston of Gillette (20.3).
The following are recent scores and upcoming baseball, softball and tee-ball games for La Plaza Little League and Las Vegas Little League.
La Plaza games take place at Rodriguez Park off Grant Street; Las Vegas games at Keyes Park off Mills Avenue.

Not content with a T-shirt, a postcard or a keychain, Rico Montoya had a different souvenir in mind from his summer trip to Montana.
So Montoya picked up a couple of national championship medals and one runner-up prize to hang on his wall.
Montoya was one of four Las Vegas wrestlers who competed in the AAU Grand Nationals for Greco-Roman, freestyle, and folkstyle wrestling June 11-12 in Butte, Mont.
The foursome was part of a 15-wrestler contingent from New Mexico, said Marcos Martinez, one of the group's coaches and an accomplished grappler himself.
The following is an interview with Luna Community College baseball coach Antonio Siqueiros.
How is the recruiting going so far this summer?
As far as Dean Gallegos is concerned, one of the defining moments of the North-South baseball weekend came away from the field.
One of the invitees to compete in the just-for-fun skills challenge on the eve of the series, West Las Vegas' Michael Armijo volunteered to give that spot up in order to focus on the actual series.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The Cougars of Colorado Christian University won their third straight Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Sportsmanship Cup, announced earlier this month by RMAC Commissioner Joel R. Smith. This is the fourth year of the RMAC Sportsmanship Cup. University of Nebraska at Kearney won the inaugural Sportsmanship Cup in 2006-07.
Adult softball teams around the state are learning what those in the Meadow City already know — the Las Vegas Hackers are pretty darn tough.
The team, which competes in the City of Las Vegas adult league, won the recent U.S. Slowpitch Softball Association's "Jalapeño Popper" tournament in Albuquerque.
The Hackers went 5-1 in the double-elimination event, defeating a strong Evolve Fitness group in the second of two meetings that decided the championship.

Host Dmae Roberts talks with Portland Jazz great Thara Memory and Librettist S. Renee Mitchell about Sherman: A Jazz Opera opening at Ethos-IFCC during Black History Month. This is a prelude to a larger work to be developed next year. Sherman highlights Portland's jazz history during the 1940s-50s, a high point of jazz when a growth of African American families moved into the North Williams Ave.
The show centers on Sherman Thomas a gifted saxophonist who mesmerized audiences in smoky jazz clubs at a time when the African Americans during WWII came to Portland to build war ships and also brought their East Coast music dubbing North Williams Avenue, the "Black Broadway."
Performing Thara Memory's score in Sherman: A Jazz Opera are some of Portland's best musicians including Janice Scroggins, Reggie Houston and LaRhonda Steele. The show runs February 18-27 at Ethos @ IFCC located at 5340 N. Interstate Ave. in Portland.

The Sardinia region
About 180km off the Italian mainland, Sardinia neatly encapsulates the best of the Meditteranean. The island's 1,850km shoreline offers amazingly crystal-clear turquoise seas and a great variety of landscapes, from long golden beaches to dramatic rocks and craggy cliffs.
The north east of Sardinia is home to the Costa Smeralda, probably the most well known part of the island, with a long stretch of white powder-sand beaches, crystal clear water and chic resorts. Away from the coast, the lush macchia and granite-covered hillsides spill down to traditional market towns and hidden coves.
The Costa Smeralda (Emerald Coast), a 10km long stretch of coast situated between the bay of Arzachena and the Gulf of Cugnana, is one of Sardinia's most famous and outstandingly beautiful areas. The north east also possesses some picture book villages, such as San Pantaleo with its charming piazza, not to mention some dramatic inland scenery dominated by huge granite outcrops.
La Maddalena
The Maddalena Archipelago, comprising 60 islands and islets scattered off the north-eastern coast of Sardinia, was the Region's first national park, created in 1996. The islands of the archipelago, made of granite and schist rock, form a precious land and marine environment, which has been preserved over the centuries also thanks to limited human presence. The park has a surface area of 50 km2, and a total coastline length of 180 km. Apart from La Maddalena itself, the only inhabited island in the archipelago since the founding of its village in 1770, the other main islands are Caprera, linked to La Maddalena by the "Passo della Moneta" road bridge, Budelli, Razzoli and Santa Maria to the north, while Spargi lies to the south.
Varying in size, geological composition and history – on the Santo Stefano island traces of Neolithic settlements (2500-2000 BC) have been found – the archipelago's islands can be explored on one of the many boat tours organised almost year round. The high points of the town of La Maddalena, framed by high defence walls, offer splendid views of the whole archipelago. The village was born around an Italian Navy base, and still retains this heritage, having long lived side by side with the Italian and US military. Its strategic position in the Mediterranean also drew the interest of Napoleone Bonaparte and Admiral Nelson.
The archipelago was also home to Italian unification hero Giuseppe Garibaldi in his later years: He set up residence on the island of Caprera, where he lived till his death in 1882.
Pretty Palau nearby has a vibrant Friday-morning market and a colourful harbour from which ferries leave frequently from La Maddalena island, which has superb beaches and sparkling azure waters.

Depictions of smoking are the biggest concern in this animated movie. Although Disney has included a brief, anti-smoking message before the opening credits, the film contains frequent depictions of the villainess Cruella De Vil flaunting her smoldering tobacco from a lengthy cigarette holder, while Roger, the main human character, is constantly shown puffing on his pipe. Other content includes slapstick violence (hitting, kicking, flaming clothing and car crashes), characters in peril, verbal threats and name-calling, as well as the possible death of a newborn puppy. Two dimwitted thugs are shown drinking alcohol.

recoveries, and cleanup activities concerning non-stockpile CWM can be made more efficacious and effective.
The NSCMP is the key provider of services and equipment for CWM destruction, both planned and in response to emergencies. In planned response operations such as those in Spring Valley in Washington, D.C., and Camp Sibert in Alabama, NSCMP would normally operate under the direction of a project manager from the USACE. In emergency response operations, such as remediating the 75-mm chemical munitions discovered at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, it would operate under its own direction.
The NSCMP is responsible for managing all projects for the assessment and disposal of RCWM. Activities include identification of assessment and disposal costs, disbursement of funds for assessment and disposal, and preparation of project schedules. The NSCMP prepares the relevant documentation and obtains the approvals needed. The documents include the site plan, the site safety submission, the destruction plan, and the environmental permits. If a recovered munition is identified as a possible chemical fill, all information germane to that munition must be forwarded to the Materiel Assessment Review Board (MARB), which conducts an assessment of the munition to determine its chemical fill and explosive configuration. The NSCMP has responsibility for satisfying the obligations of the CWC.
NSCMP provides the equipment used for assessment, storage, and destruction of recovered munitions, and it has an active, ongoing program to improve this equipment and to develop new technologies.
In addition to the NSCMP, the MARB, and the USACE, other organizations are involved in hands-on aspects of remediation of buried CWM: the 20th Support Command Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosives Analytical and Remediation Activity (CARA); the Edgewood Chemical and Biological Center (ECBC); the U.S. Army Technical Center for Explosives Safety (USATCES); and the Department of Defense Explosives Safety Board (DDESB).
The committee's other main responsibilities involved (1) the review of the technologies now in use for cleanup of CWM sites and identification of any deficiencies and (2) the development of recommendations for targeted research and development to correct these deficiencies. Many technologies are employed, as exemplified by a typical project in which suspected subsurface CWM are located through the application of geophysical technologies, typically magnetometry or active electromagnetic sensors. An object is uncovered by mechanized or manual excavation and the air around the site is monitored for agent. Qualified personnel remove and evaluate the suspected CWM and package it in a container approved for on-site transport to an installation bunker or an interim holding facility (IHF).
The suspected CWM will then be removed from storage and a mobile munitions assessment system (MMAS) sent to the site to provide a nonintrusive assessment of its contents. The key MMAS tools are these:
• Digital radiography and computed tomography (DRCT),
• Portable isotopic neutron spectroscopy (PINS), and
• Raman spectrometer.
The RCWM is again placed in interim storage to await review of the assessment by the MARB. In this scenario, the IHF may be off-site. If transport is required, the RCWM is packaged in a multiple round container (MRC) that has been certified by the Department of Transportation and can then be carried over public roads by CARA.
After the contents have been assessed by the MARB, they are destroyed or treated by one of the following technologies:
• Explosive destruction system (EDS),
• Transportable detonation chamber (TDC),
• Detonation of ammunition in a vacuum integrated chamber (DAVINCH), or
• Static detonation chamber (SDC).
If the RCWM is a chemical agent identification set (CAIS), the single CAIS access and neutralization system (SCANS) is used to destroy the CAIS. Secondary waste is transported to a commercial facility for final disposal.
The committee had no recommendations to make on any research and development for the following aspects of the aforementioned technologies:
• Geophysical detection. Other organizations have large R&D programs under way in this area. The best policy for NSCMP is to track developments in these programs.
• Personal protective equipment. No needs identified.
• Conventional excavation equipment. No needs identified.
• CWM packaging and transportation. As described in Chapter 4, the NSCMP is developing a universal munitions storage container. It is fabricated from high-density polyethylene, and its use will allow the destruction of overpacked munitions in the EDS without removing them from the overpack. No additional R&D needs identified.
• CWM storage. No needs identified.
• SCANS. No needs identified.
• DRCT. No needs identified.

"My father's originally from Buxton (N.C.), and he loved those geese flying overhead. His favorite were the Canadian geese. He could go out there and honk just like one. And on the day of my daddy's funeral, when the hearse pulled up our driveway, a flock of Canadian geese flew overhead in a V formation, honking away. I could almost reach up and touch them they flew so low."
"It was pretty cool. They would honk and say it was pretty nice and that it was looking pretty good."
"It's big and good and wonderful. People honk and wave. It's exciting to be out there. We get a lot of positive reinforcement from the people out there."
"Several passing motorists tried to warn him by honking their horns and flashing their lights, ... And he continued, exit after exit."
