(Photo Credit: Dale Rutemeyer/GoMocs.com): Casey Jones scored a career-high 23 points to lead three Mocs in double figures
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.---The Chattanooga Mocs won their sixth in a row topping Wofford 70-69 in McKenzie Arena. The win keeps the Mocs atop the Southern Conference standings at 4-0, a half-game clear of Western Carolina and Davidson.
Sophomore forward Casey Jones (New Orleans, La.) scored a career-high 23 points to lead Chattanooga adding eight rebounds. Z. Mason (Nashville, Tenn.) had 17 points, seven rebounds and four blocks, while Ronrico White (Knoxville, Tenn.) chipped in 15 points and two steals.
"(Casey Jones) is great…he gets in the paint and he is tough," Head Coach Will Wade responded to a question on Jones' play. "One thing that really helps him is that he can explode. When those guys come in to square him up, he can explode over them and get a shot off. He has great lift, athleticism and bounce."
Wofford was paced by Karl Cochran with 20 points. Lee Skinner added 10 points and a career-high 15 boards, as Spencer Collins scored 11.
The Mocs led by as many as 11 in the second half. It was 61-50 on a Jones layup with 5:51 to go. The Terriers chipped away at the lead cutting it to four, 65-61, on two Skinner free throws at 1:30.
White came down and expertly ran the offense. He scored on a layup with six seconds left on the shot clock to make it a six-point ball game with a minute to play.
It was still six inside 30 seconds when the Terriers ran off five unanswered points. Cochran raced down the floor after a missed free throw with 6.1 remaining and went all the way to the rim. Greg Pryor (Memphis, Tenn.) waited outside the block/charge arc and braced for the collision. Cochran was called for the charge as Pryor secured the victory with 1.1 on the clock.
"He put his body on the line and took a big charge for the team," Wade said. "I am really proud of him. He had been in a little bit of a lull and hopefully this jumpstarts him and gets him going."
It was a tale of two halves. Chattanooga led 28-24 at the break, but turned the pace of the game into its favor in the second half moving it from a half-court to transition game.
Jones (19) and Mason (12) combined for 31 of the Mocs' 42 second half points. Mason also had all four blocks in the second frame with his squad's record improving to 10-8.
Wofford falls to 7-9, 2-2 in the SoCon. It led early, 9-6 on Cochran's first three-pointer of the contest. Chattanooga scored the next eight points to lead 14-9 on Lance Stokes' (Orlando, Fla.) basket at 11:30. The Terriers tied it 18-all on two C.J. Neumann free throws with 6:33 left in the opening half, but White put his team up for good with three free throws just eight seconds later.
"Excited to get the win," Wade stated. "I thought we played really well for a vast majority of the second half. We got a little loose in the last three minutes of the game. They did a very good job of attacking us and taking us off the bounce.
"I am just proud of our guys," he concluded. "Wofford is a tough team, and I thought we matched them in toughness and physicality. That is hard to do against them.
"I am proud of our guys answering the call."
It's back on the road next weekend for the Mocs. The squad travels to Appalachian State on Thursday before facing these same Wofford Terriers next Saturday in Spartanburg.
The games can be listened to live on ESPN 105.1 FM the Zone in the Scenic City, or go to the men's basketball schedule page on GoMocs.com for links to video (PPV), audio (free) and live stats.

Comments about Vineyard Vines Sailboat Dress:
Purchased in size 10 (5'3" 140 lb) and crossed my fingers it would fit, but it was too big overall. I would definitely say this dress runs true to size so I would have better fit in a 6 or 8.
The straps are pretty thin and one was ripped (front bust strap) when I received this dress (returned).

Spectators have two chances to see local teens run, jump, flip, dance and fly through the air on Saturday, March 7, either at 2 or 7 p.m., at Harwood Union High School.
The annual Harwood gym show is approaching with more than 20 gymnasts performing in this post-season extravaganza that has been going on for more than 25 years. This year's theme is "Around the World" so be ready to hear and see moves, music and costumes that are reminiscent of far corners of the earth.
Harwood senior Frankie Bennett says, "Gym show is just a really fun time when we don't have to worry about scores and competition. We can go out there and show the community what we've worked hard on all season!"
Bennett (captain) and two other seniors, Courtney Nelson (captain) and Harley Pecor, will showcase their skills in this final Harwood performance. The Harwood varsity girls' gymnastics team placed fourth in the state this season at Essex High School on February 14. The middle school team includes Crossett Brook and Harwood Union Middle School students.
Coach Anissa Touchette says, "This is truly a grand finale. It's a fabulous opportunity for young gymnasts and their parents to see middle and high school students performing at advanced levels on the bars, vault, balance beam and floor. There are group and dual routines plus other unusual performances that you wouldn't see in a typical meet. Our show is fast moving and shouldn't be missed."

renegadebuck - quick question will this work interchangeably between norinco .223 ak's and the SAR3? The fitting mentioned in this thread - is that for the saiga rifles? Thanks.

Ted Nugent - speaking at the NRA convention April 17, 2005
It works on Norincos and SAR3's interchangeably. You could use the same adapter on all three rifles(including Saigas). As long as an AR mag will fit flush against the magstop rails, it will work on any stamped AK. The only changes you'd have to make is for the mags. If it fits, it works, if not you have to relieve whatever is stopping the mag from fitting.
Renegade Buck-
Still making these? If so, how do I get my hands on one? Where do I send the check, credit card number or suitcase of money to? You would be a hero.
Awesome! Thank you.
So do you just want me to send you the money when they arrive? Paypal, credit card, cash, cashier's check,...
Good motto. Okay. Until then, the money will be in my wallet...
I have had the adapter for awhile and renegade has a good product.

Style: Monkey-See-Monkey-Do--
Wounded Ronin,
I knew an old guy in OKC, that was a Korean War vet that had a small jar full of gold teeth from dead North Korean and Chinese soldiers.
My godfather had a stack of cloth Chinese stars he took off dead chicom hats. Later, he was a Green beanie with the montagnards in Vietnam. He told me a story once about how they put a few VC heads on spikes, and the bad guys supposedly left the area alone for a while. You can rest assured that that sort of behavior would not be tolerated in today's media-saturated environment.
Style: German longsword, .45 ACP--
To be fair, though, it's not that it wouldn't be tolereated because we're all weenies. The reason it wouldn't be tolerated would be because in this day and age it would be providing the enemies of the US with ammunition and propaganda in the global information war.
Interesting stories, though. I appreciate you sharing them.Best Vietnam War music video I've ever seen put together by a vet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDY8raKsdfg

I did a research paper on ROK military presense in Vietnam. My resources included declassified though unreleased dept. of defense papers of R.o. Korea /US as well as current library resources. Let me post my findings here.. but right now I have steak grilling that I have to tend to!

If you can read Korean, then you should go check out some veteran's websites. It is very interesting; a much much different view of how the troops (both ROKAR and ROKMC) dealt with the war.
I wanted to do a compilation of ROK veteran interviews and publish a book before too many of them died, but my educational plans changed...

LuckyDonkey is no more. After many years on the internet I decided to take it down. A lot of the blog posts on there were getting really old and out of date. I still own the domain so any email addresses will still get through.
Most of the linked to articles that are still relevant and accurate to some extent have been copied and links to the originals on Lucky Donkey will redirect to their counter parts here.
If you've made it here then the page you are looking for wasn't migrated across to Execution Unit. This probably means that the information was out of date and you are actually lucky to not be reading it.

The second annual Mad River Valley Turkey Trot attracted over 175 runners. The event is a fundraiser for the Warren Elementary School PTO.
"This is a big increase from last year when we were thrilled to have 100 runners at our first event. We were fortunate to have many local sponsors, allowing us to offer a T-shirt and goody bag to those that pre-registered," said school principal Wendy Cobb.
The sponsors included The Warren Store, Sugarbush and the Greshins, Jamieson Insurance, the Mad Marathon, Miller Realty Group, Sugar Lodge, Butternut Systems, Deerfield Designs, The Hyde Away, Bridge Street Butchery, East Warren Community Market, Mad River Glen, Seventh Generation and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters.
"We were able to raise approximately $2,000, which helps fund programs at the Warren School, such as our artist in residence and scholarships," she said.
Runners came from all over and included a mix of local residents and those visiting from out of town.
"The event could not have happened without all of the great volunteers helping with registration and cheering on our runners. We even had some students from GMVS come out and help! It was definitely a community effort. We are already making plans to improve the event for next year," Cobb added.
See more photos on the school's website, warrenschool.org.

Review: Mujjo capacitive touchscreen gloves for iPhone and iPad
"Mujjo capacitive touchscreen gloves are amust-have for any serious iPhone or iPad user caught in a cold, wintery climate."
Why have I instantly fallen in love with Mujjo's capacitive touchscreen gloves for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad? It's simple, really. I live in Canada where it's routinely been -20 celsius for the last couple of weeks -- so cold that when you go outside your face freezes and the last thing you want to do is pull off your nice warm gloves just to use your iPhone while out and about. You'd rather miss a call, wait to answer a text, or forget about looking something up on the web than risk the frostbite inducing winds and bone chilling snow. But with Mujjo, I don't have to give up my multitouch just to stay warm -- thanks to the capacitive carry-through, I can slide to unlock and tap away all from within the comfort of my gloves.
Unlike some iPhone-friendly gloves, Mujjo doesn't just weave capacitive thread into the thumb and forefinger, but they're made of high-quality silver-coated nylon fibers knitted into the fabric of the glove. The entire gloves! You can tap away with any finger you like. You can tap away with your knuckles, palm, ridge of your hand -- literally any part of the glove. That makes it so much easier to use in the cold weather and is a huge advantage over other gloves. The only downside is that they made two-sizes fits all, and I have fairly small hands so even the smaller size is a little loose on me, and I need to push a little harder to make the capacitive connection than I expect someone with larger hands might.
Wearing the Mujjo, I could do everything I needed to do with my iPhone, including making and answering phone calls, texting, and surfing the web at about 80% of my normal speed.

Review: Mujjo capacitive touchscreen gloves for iPhone and iPad
I can haz gloves???
Those would make winters much more bearable here in Ohio.
I just got a fancy wool jacket for Christmas. These gloves would be the perfect match not only with my coat, but my beautiful iPhone :)
These are awesome love gloves that work on touch screen.
Perfect for the cold days.
I love to have a pair. Great for being outdoors on cold days
A must have in the colder climates!! :)
I need some of these!!
I just got myself a nice wool coat and scarf over the weekend, but I'm more particular when it comes to gloves just because of my iDevices that I use when I'm out and about. I've tried North Face's and a few other brands that have the capacitative touch feature, but they're either only on the thumb and pointer finger, look or feel ugly to match, and/or they're obnoxiously expensive.
These Mujjo gloves look like a perfect compliment, so I'd love to win one. Otherwise, I'll probably buy it if I can find them locally.
Thanks to the 4S and my headphones with an inline mic I can reach in my pocket, hold down the home button until Siri pops up, and then make a call or do other voice activated things all without taking my gloves off or even taking the phone out of my pocket. I think that's pretty neat and it's helpful in a Massachusetts winter. All the same, a pair of these gloves would be pretty sweet.
Would like the gloves. Like the idea of having the entire glove active!
Exactly what I need here in Minnesota!
Gloves to keep my hands warm, gloves to make my iphone happy, gloves to make me happy. I love gloves! Gloves! Gloves! Gloves!
I like the idea of using something like this. Benefit keeping the smudging on the screen to a minimum. Yeah!
Please, please, please.
These sure would come in handy lol -38C with the windchill in Winnipeg the past few days :(
I definitely need one right now.
These look very cool- would love a pair! Small if anyone was asking...
These would be great here in Boston!!
Living in upstate NY I need theses gloves to play with my phone outside. My hand gets cold having to take my regular gloves off. :)
Would love a pair for these. I take my girlfriend to work everyday and have to be out at 5am...I have to keep in touch with her do she knows if I'm coming or running late. The steering wheel is always cold...and always killing my hands...heater is just not enough. Help!!! ;D
Me me me me me! My office has no heater!
Living in Oregon where i wear gloves 90% of the time. I would be SO greatful for a pair of these!!! :)
I would love to be able to answer my phone when my hands are cold... :)
It would sure beat using fingerless gloves
Thanks for the great review (both written and video), Georgia! These look like fantastic gloves for using my iPhone 4 while outside in the cold. Hope I win one of the ten pairs! (I'd need the larger of the 2 one-size-fits-all sizes available). :)
Much better than fingerless gloves.
I need these badly as I map directions to job interviews on cold mornings.
Greetings from the coldbox that is Ohio this time of year!
Hell yea I want one of those!!!
I would love to have a pair of these!
Ooo I want a pair!
Help me keep my fingers warm during this bi-polar weather the mid-west is having!
Id like to have one. It would be good using my iphone out in the antarctic.
Ooooo. Love to put my fingers in these.
Sounds great and how well do these hold up to snow?
Supposed to be 4 degrees tomorrow with more snow. A pair of these would be awesome!
I must win for ma honrah!
I live in Michigan, close to Canada, close enough to freezing my buns off. Every morning I sit in a frozen vehicle while it warms up with one glove on and one glove off so I can turn on the nav app (Waze) and prepare for the drive to work. Sure would be nice to have two warm hands and still be able to turn use the iPhone.
These look pretty neat! Wouldn't mind having a pair.
These would help make winters a little more bearable.
These sound awesome! I'd love to sport a pair of these gloves!
Just in time for winter (sort of). :) iMore is giving away stuff and that makes them the generous(est) of all! Thanks iMore!
Nice and simple just like iOS . Thanks
I just bought an iphone and it's snowing where I live, I know northface made similar gloves but they were too expensive for me. Hope I win!
very cool! I've seen the ones with just the fingertips but these are awesome!

Christian Pade's most recent production for Oper Frankfurt was Sciarrino's Luci mie traditrici in the Bockenheimer Depot. This was a co-production with the Cantiere Internazionale d'Arte di Montepulciano, where the first performances ever in Italy took place (DVD available: EuroArts). Other productions for the company were Pique Dame, The Turn of the Screw and the world premiere of Glanert's Caligula. Christian Pade is well known as an artist working in both drama and opera. He began studying direction and acting at the Otto Falckenberg School in his home town of Munich before working at the Munich Kammerspiele, assisting Dieter Dorn and Hans Lietzau, amongst others. He then directed productions at houses including the state theatres in Stuttgart, Hannover and Kassel and Schauspiel Frankfurt. He was also a member of the management at Theater Bremen, where he recently directed Gerhart Hauptmann's Einsame Menschen/Lonely People. Other operas directed by Christian Pade include Boris Godunow in Dresden, Mathis der Maler in Hamburg, Fidelio and Lucia di Lammermoor in Dortmund, Henze's Elegie für junge Liebende/Elegy for Young Lovers and Die Fledermaus at the Berlin Staatsoper and the world premiere of Lucia Ronchetti's Neumond/New Moon at the Nationaltheater in Mannheim.

I'm about 5.5 weeks here. I have struggled a lot with hypertension since my last child was born 2 years ago. It swings wildly right now. I had gotten it to a really good level for me but it just won't stay down long. My diastolic has ranged from 80 to 104 today alone. The 104 probably being that I was just reading about hypertension risks in pregnancy. :/ I feel extremely frustrated that despite all the diet and exercise I simply can't have a normal blood pressure consistently. I assume this means I should see the OB very soon and get put on something. I really am happy about the baby but feeling so discouraged tonight over my stupidly high blood pressure. My bp drops with weight loss but no matter how hard I try I have been unable to lose any more weight in the last 6 mo. It just bounces up and down. I really wanted to start off pregnancy thinner and in better control of my bp.
I was put on labetalol in my last pregnancy. But I have since heard that is a drug there is a shortage of? Is an OB likely to still prescribe that as a first resort or try others first? We tried some others and I didn't do well on them. They caused an irregular heart beat. I also really want to avoid one that causes weight gain since it's darn near impossible for me to lose weight. Am I at an even greater risk of preeclampsia this pregnancy starting off this hypertensive? I'm not entirely clear if I had preeclampsia the last pregnancy. I seem to recall coming to the understanding from previous conversations on here that I did. My BP had gotten very very high and I was starting to have some head aches and flashes of light. But one of the biggest deciding factors last time in my induction had been a rapid drop in amniotic fluid. I basically had a cluster of problems and they were waiting to see which one hit certain criteria's first.
I really don't want to be hypertensive for life. I know that weight loss and exercise and diet are all things that are supposed to lower BP. And I've heard of the idea of unmasking, that preeclampsia unmasks future hypertension. But since there are lifestyle factors that can prevent it is it ever a given though? Or is it possible though that you can have such damage from a preeclamptic pregnancy that you can never have a healthy BP without medication? Because I did not have high blood pressure before I had preeclampsia the first time 5 years. But I have had a huge struggle with it ever since.

Here's what he had to say:
Frankie Edgar & Title Shots
I'm ahead of him, you know what I mean? The fans don't want to see him fight for the title again, right away. They want to see him earn it again. He's had opportunity after opportunity, and now it's our turn. I've waited so patiently. I'm just keeping my mouth shut and fighting hard. I'm letting my work speak for itself, so I know my time is coming. I just want to go out there and live up to my own expectations.
I don't worry about Frankie getting a shot before me, because I don't think he'll be able to finish Oliveira more impressively than I did. It kind of pissed me off when he called me out, because he specifically asked for five rounds, because he thinks that the only way he'll beat me is by grinding out a decision or taking me into deep waters. That offended me. I'm here putting in the work. You don't get to come down here demanding whatever you want. I deserve to call the shots, not him.
Game Planning
As long as I'm in there doing my thing, and am aware of what he's doing, I'm gonna be fine. There's nothing that he's got that I can't defend. That was the thing when I fought Oliveira. Everyone said I had to really focus on jiu jitsu, because he was so slick on the ground. I literally did no jiu jitsu for that camp. Everyone was like, 'Are you training your jiu jitsu for him?' I said, 'Nope. I'm gonna knock him out.' He's a very slick grappler. Why am I gonna train my whole camp trying to work his strength?
I feel like that's a mistake I've made in the past. When I fought Chad Mendes, I worried so much about wrestling, that I ended up getting taken down the entire camp. By the time I got in the cage to fight him, my confidence was so low, I couldn't put anything together, because I wasn't fighting like myself. I was worried about training to fight his fight. If you do what you do better, then it doesn't matter.
Work With Troubled Teens
As far as going out there, and giving back to the community, it's something I've been doing for a while now, kind of quietly. I do it every opportunity I get, even though I'm not a great public speaker, because I get nervous. I just feel like I have to, like I should be doing this. The only reason I let it be known that I was doing this, was to challenge others to do it, too. If you're in a position to positively impact people, then you should do that.
Not Becoming a Product of the System
I remember having so many tickets, because I used to get harassed by the police. They would just pile up to where I couldn't afford them, so I didn't even want to deal with them. It was such a headache that they would just let them go, and that's where a lot of people end up getting into more trouble. I can see how hard it is for people that are trying to do good, but get buried in their circumstances. At the end of the day though, it boils down to a lot of choices, and the choices you make earlier in life affect you later on down the road. You just have to accept responsibility for those, and make the changes.

I had a bit of a tourist moment on my way to Pescheria Mattiucci. It's actually situated on one of the most recognizable roads in North London and is slap bang opposite the travel bookshop, made famous by the film, Notting Hill. It's also next door but one or two from the foodie heaven: Books for Cooks.
Stepping into Pescheria Mattiucci is like being welcomed into a cosy vintage-filled home. It is a family business owned by Luigi Mattiucci, with branches in Naples and Milan, it's certainly a very unique restaurant in London – unlike no other I've visited.
The menu changes daily according to the catch of the day, and all dishes are cooked to authentic recipes mastered by the fisherman's wives in Southern Italy. All fish used is wild and sustainable, with some caught in Italy, and some from the British Isles.
To start, we tried the Crudo Mediterraneo – otherwise known as the raw fish platter. It simply was a plate of thinly sliced raw fish, all beautifully fresh, serves with olive oil, fresh lemon and orange juice and a little salad. We tried tuna, ricciola, swordfish and prawns. It was really unusual but absolutely delicious and superbly fresh fish, making a really light start to the meal.
We then moved on to try the razor clams with garlic and chilli which were extremely tasty, and I found myself mopping up the delicious juices from my plate. We also tried the Blue Scottish lobster served grilled with mashed potato. The lobster was absolutely stunning – meltingly soft and tender and fragrant with lemon and orange zest on top, and was served with some great garlicky mash.
Dining at Pescheria Mattiucci is a unique experience set in the heart of Notting Hill and well worth a visit and is an absolute must if you are a fish lover, like me. Dinner for two is around £60-75 including wine.

Well, maybe not................
This is so wrong on so many levels. First off the CEO is full of marshmallows. Hostess never once tried to restructure to keep things going. Filing bankruptcy is not restructuring. They're selling very unhealthy food stuff in a very health conscious world without trying to "fit in" and make a few changes. It is so easy for CEOs to blame unions for their problems. This is like Congress and the POTUS - if you can't work together to solve problems you're doomed to fail.
We just might get to see just exactly how long the shelf life is for twinkies....better start hoardin' 'em now!!
Forget the twinkies, I'm hoarding the Ding Dongs. Is it just me or did they taste better when they came wrapped in aluminum foil?
I won't be sorry to see them go. I always thought they were pretty gross.
Creme-filled Krispy Kreme doughnuts are the way to go if you want creme.
I take TastyKakes over them anyday. I never liked the things.
All those jobs versus that crap disappearing from wee kiddy's lunch boxes forever...hmmm, yeah it's a wash.
Now if you'll excuse me, I uh..got me a hole I've been meanin' to dig.

If you have earned an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) from a TCSG institution, consider earning one of the following Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) or Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology (BSET) degrees from SPSU.
Bachelor of Science Engineering Technology (BSET)
We are very happy that you are considering additional educational opportunities at Southern Polytechnic State University. While many career opportunities will be available to you with your TCSG degree, we believe that adding a SPSU Bachelor's degree will enhance your career choices even further. For this reason, we have developed several pathways from selected TCSG AAS degrees into related Bachelor's degrees here at SPSU. More importantly, these pathways will fully utilize the AAS courses that you have taken at the TCSG by fully transferring them into the BAS or BSET programs.
The TCSG and SPSU have worked together to align our curricula so that you will experience a smooth and comfortable transfer from your TCSG to SPSU. In addition, the SPSU course work will be available to you completely online in a low residency format which may require that you attend labs at SPSU or a regional site one or two weekends during the semester (not all degrees require labs). These programs are designed to allow you to complete your Bachelor's degree without having to leave your current employment or disrupt your family in the process. Naturally, if you live within convenient driving distance of the SPSU campus in Marietta, you may also take the courses on campus.
Again, we are happy that you are considering SPSU, excited about your future and hopeful
that you will study with us in one of our ever expanding Articulation Programs.
What will the TCSG Articulation Program do for you?
The TCSG Articulation Program provides an efficient pathway from a TCSG Associate of Applied Science (AAS) to an online SPSU Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) or Bachelor of Science Engineering Technology (BSET).

FOREST HILLS, Ky. — A mixture of dry leaves and brush accompanied by strong gusts of wind were a bad combination for several home owners who reside on Kate Cove in the Forest Hills, Ky. community, as a brush fire expanded to a large section of land, threatening the safety of their homes and property.
Shortly after 12 o'clock noon on Monday, members of the Belfry Volunteer Fire Department (BVFD) were dispatched to 348 Kate Camp Road which is the home of Mike and Cecelia Goff, after the fire behind their home was detected.
"I had smelled smoke a little earlier in the morning but I had blown out candles that had been burning so I chalked the smell up to that," explained Cecelia. "I was upstairs in my daughter's bedroom hanging up clothes when I glanced out the window and seen the fire."
The shaken homeowner called 911 and within a short period of time, 9 BVFD and one fire truck were on scene battling the fire. The firemen utilized the water from their swimming pool to help extinguish the blaze.
"According to the weather report on the news, we were supposed to get rain today and as far as I'm concerned, it can't come quick enough," said Cecelia. "This was a very scary situation."
Pike County Deputy Sheriff J. Williams told the Daily News that the wind had greatly contributed to the spreading of the fire, as well as the dryness of the leaves and plants.
"We're concentrating on the area behind these 3 homes right now, and then the firemen will work their way around the hillside," stated Williams. "Hopefully the rain will begin to fall shortly; it would definitely help us a lot."
The Kentucky Division of Forestry was called to the scene after the volunteer firefighters observed the flames creeping overtop the mountain and snaking its way down the opposite side, hoping to curtail the situation before more homes or lives were placed in danger.
"We can't emphasize how important it is to not burn any materials outdoors that are not carefully supervised because within just a few minutes, the hillside can catch fire before you realize what's happening," said the deputy. The fire remains under investigation.
Forest fires and brush fires have also been reported in other locations in Eastern Kentucky, as well as Mingo, Logan and Kanawha Counties in WV.

UFC Featherweight Cub Swanson has started coming into his own since transferring over in 2011. As a WEC fighter he was known as being impressive but very consistent. Since losing his debut bout after the merger he's put together a 5-fight win streak. Most recently he got a 3rd round TKO over Dennis Siver in a Fight of the Night performance at UFC 162.
With that fight barely a week behind him, he's already thinking about what he wants next. Of course, with a couple top-10 wins under his belt, he's looking right at champion Jose Aldo. But, with Aldo already scheduled to fight Chan Sung Jung at UFC 163, Cub says he's not gonna wait around:
#2 ranked Featherweight Ricardo Lamas has put together a solid streak of his own. In 4 UFC fights, he's never lost inside the Octagon. If he and Swanson meet each other next, it'll be for the second time. Back at UFC on Fox 1, Lamas caught Swanson in an arm-triangle to submit him in the second round.Well, if they are going to give someone else Aldo then thats way too long for me to wait. Im in prime position right now. Im doing well. Theres no sense in me waiting, but I do want that fight and if I have to fight one more time then I would like the Ricardo Lamas fight or the Frankie Edgar fight.
Ive thought about (losing) and I just think that if I did, for some reason, lose because the talent is so high, I wouldnt get down on myself. I would just make the adjustments and try to get right back on a win streak because at this point of my career and in my life, Im having so much fun fighting and I just like to get out there and do it,
Despite being only 1-1 in the division, former Lightweight champ Frankie Edgar has already cemented himself as a top player at 145 lbs. After giving up a decision to champion Jose Aldo in his divisional debut, Edgar took a clear unanimous decision over Charles Oliveira at UFC 162 to earn a Fight of the Night bonus of his own.

'Great Lakes Song' : Pat Dailey sings ode to the waters on Red Cross benefit CD.Written by Amanda Tindall | | firstname.lastname@example.com
As Pat Dailey recalled the beginning of his musical career, he said he felt like a fake songwriter at the time. But, as he wrote songs with the well-known songwriter and children's author Shel Silverstein, he said Silverstein convinced him that he was, in fact, a real songwriter.
Dailey first began playing music with the high-school band he put together, he said.
"I just always had an urge to be on stage," Dailey said. "My dad was kind of in the entertainment business, but he didn't want me to go into it because it's not very stable."
So after high school, Dailey went into the Marine Corps. When he got out, he had to find a way to provide for a wife and baby.
"I put in applications and got hired as a police officer," Dailey said. "But I soon realized that I couldn't be a serious police officer. I put on the uniform, looked in the mirror and said, 'Ha! I look like a police officer,' and kind of laughed. Then I realized I was a real one."
Since then, Dailey has traveled throughout the United States as a full-time musician. He now resides on Put-in-Bay, the place that gives inspiration to many of his songs.
Track five on the American Red Cross "Red, White & You Too!" benefit CD, "Great Lakes Song," took inspiration from a different yet similar place.
"Great Lakes Song was inspired by a trip I took up all through Michigan," Dailey said. "That's what inspired the song and made me fall in love with the place. Now because of that song, I've been able to travel all throughout the lakes on big oar boats."

I love my new laptop. Not only can I play games and telecommute from house, but I can also Cant Filter Me.. With my work schedule it is usually tough to watch shoes that are currently popular so I always go back to my tried-and-true favorites. Frasier is one of those. I do not remember how I very first learned that you can watch these shows online, but even so I did I would like to say thank you. Watching Tv is a single of my favorite ways to relax after a rough day inside ER and Frasier is often beneficial to get a laugh. I want that much more often than I need to.
nice stuff looks pretty cool to me.
Ok that was pretty informative.

I think it's pretty sure I actually have a missed miscarriage. I went to the OB last week at what I thought was 8 weeks and we couldn't see a heartbeat. I have a follow ultrasound and labs tomorrow though to be sure. I have never had a miscarriage before.
But what I'm mostly writing to ask about is swelling. I don't normally have swelling in pregnancy or if I do it's like in the last week or so of pregnancy. The only time I had a lot of swelling and early on was with my 2nd daughter. With her I started swelling early in my second trimester. I ended up with pretty severe preeclampsia and hospitalized at 31 weeks. Currently my body seems to think I am pregnant whether or not our baby has passed. My belly is growing. I have morning sickness and sore breasts still. No symptoms of miscarriage so far. But this past week I have had some odd swelling. A couple of times I noticed my face seemed swollen around my eyes. I wondered if it was allergies though this is not a normal symptom for me. Some times my hands have felt swollen.
Well today we went to Six Flags. Early on I looked down at my feet and one point and felt surprised and wondered if my feet were actually swollen or if my ankles were really just that fat. A couple of times I looked down at my legs and each time I noticed they seemed odd and splotchy. The skin tone was off. My legs felt heavy. Then at one point when we arrived at the water park section and as I was taking off my sandals I was horrified to noticed how swollen I was. My feet were terribly swollen. I actually had a crease where my ankle met the top of my foot. My ankles were swollen part way up to my calves. It felt horrible and LOOKED horrible. This is swelling that is very out of the ordinary for me. I don't ever get swollen while not pregnant.
I was able to lay down in the water in the shade and cool off and elevate my feet and they eventually got noticeably better. Getting up and walking around again of course made them worse. I'm home in bed now and resting and assume I'll be much better by morning. But could I even possibly be having early symptoms leading to preeclampsia THIS early?? Swelling like this worries me and I basically had a small panic attack when I saw how bad my feet were. It brought back so many frightening memories. I have never heard of swelling with a miscarriage but it seems so far my body still believes it's growing a healthy baby so not responding normally.

Emphasis mine. You've conveniently split your peers up into 3 categories - two 'bad' categories, complete with cutting descriptions, and a third that you happen to belong to. It's human nature to value your own worldview above other peoples, but I think it's worth pointing out what we're all reading here.
True. I appreciate your cynicism. It's a strange form of enlightenment to apply cynicism to yourself.
You go on to say that those other people are binging you down and making education worse for you. But I say those other points of view are quite valid, and the world doesn't revolve around your needs and desires.
I never said it does. I said that these groups of people need different things and need different experiences and I never really said that they were good or bad, although I could easily see you my terminology could cause you to believe that. Further, I do not claim (although did not explicitly state) to be part of the intellectual group, although I strive to be a part of it. I do however believe that the goal of promoters of general education wish to transform the "robots" into intellectuals and I believe that their approaches are not working well. The other groups do not bring quality down, the failure to tailor education has brought down quality.
We need to come to terms as a society that formal education is just for getting letters in front of your name, and to stop expecting so much from it.
I agree that formal education has become that, but as a student, I am trying to get the most out of my education. I figure, if I'm paying so much for it, I ought to milk it for all that its worth - connections, ideas, experiences, everything. So it's not a matter of expectations but a matter of personal ROI optimization that you're seeing here.
Here is my personal philosophy: the best we can hope for is to introduce someone to a topic that sparks their interest. The best work will come from personal study, no professors or classmates required. And if someone wants to have a beer and watch football instead, there is nothing wrong with that either.
Agreed. I wish we as a society could reach an agreement on these issues, but we will not. The reason is that fundamentally your statement is a statement that it is ok to "slack" in life - it's fundamentally a statement about the purpose of life. That's a question that philosophers have argued over for basically all of history.

Before I explain why, I must note that there are different types of students who respond differently to attempts to make them well-rounded. The first type, I call "robots." Robots essentially drag themselves through a fixed course in life - birth, elementary school, middle school, high school, college, career, marriage, kids, retirement, death. What kind of robot you get depends on the school you attend, but essentially they are all the same person. You get people who are insanely good at some subject (chemistry, biology, etc.) but not so good at everything else. Or so you'd think. What you actually get are people who have no intrinsic motivation, but are good at anything they have to do. That means they'll learn what they need for their career and they'll do well in these sort of general education classes if they have to get a degree. But, there's a problem: they'll never apply that knowledge to anything else. For example, if you have a robot who studies neuroscience and takes a required philosophy class, they won't consider the impact of neuroscience upon moral philosophy. Basically, requiring these students to take these sorts of classes is like programming an industrial welding robot to play a violin. While it might seem like you've done something, all you've really done is make a weird demonstration that doesn't really do much after it quits.
The second type of student here is the party animal. These students just party through college - they're not here for academics really, they're here for the connections. They are here for a variety of reasons - legacy, decent test scores, athletics, etc. As you might expect, they take a "C's get degrees" attitude to required courses. They don't gain anything from such courses but at least they push down to curve for the rest of us. Or you might assume. Actually, they take up valuable resources including TA and professor time, ask basic and banal questions and worst of all annoy the course staff and make them angry at the student body as a whole.
Lastly, there are some students who are truly intellectual. They actually integrate the ideas from the various disciplines together and create better ideas as a result. These students don't actually need much help being well-rounded. They'll read articles and get ideas from other fields on their own because that's part of there personality. They may take non-major related classes out of interest (I'm doing this with physics, chemistry, and maybe biology) for entertainment. The only benefit they may receive from these classes is a little push on the envelope (which they may hit anyway). The disadvantage is that they take required classes, which are bad because forced education is an inherently bad process. Students who don't want to learn are a pain to teach. This annoys professors that take that anger out on the student body. They also force professors to dumb down the course, in turn causing students who are actually engaged to be bored out of their minds. This bordem in turn causes them to become disinterested. Essentially, the entire thing fails for everyone at the same time.
So, to recap, required courses fail for each group of students for different reasons. Robots learn the material and then fail to apply it. Party animals flunk the classes. Intellectual students become disinterested in the basic classes and disconnected teachers. Solving the problem of making "robots" intellectual is not going to be done by dragging them through a few GE's. I don't know what the answer is, but I know we need to find it before the flesh-and-blood robots are replaced with silicon-and-steel ones.

Let H_t be the height of the tower from the bottom of the farm.
Let H_f be the height of the top of the farm from the bottom of the farm. (1.5 m in your case)
g = earth's gravity.
Note 1 kg of water = 1 liter of water.
Now, for every kg of water in the tower, (H_t - H_f) * g joules of energy are released. Each kg pulled up from the bottom of the tower uses up H_f * g joules of energy. So thus, every kg down can lift up (H_t/H_f - 1) kgs of water. So, if the tower is 15 meters tall, then you only need 1 kg to get 9 kg up. In your case, for example, if the tower is 15 m tall and you want 3000 kg/hour, you only need 300 liters of water in the tower to run it for an hour assuming your mechanical pumping system is 100% efficient (obvious it won't be, but it probably will be pretty close). The falling water can also run the air pump, solving that problem while you're at it. You can still have the electric system as a back up. Note that it is often much more windy at night than during the day so you might want a 24 hour storage system. This might get big, but if you are already building a huge tower for the wind turbine, it might not be all that bad.

The "simple physics" is not so simple when you have a sentient and innovative race in the picture. As the materials are depleted, we are finding increasing substitutes, for example, we instead of steel, we are making cars out of carbon. We are using aluminum instead of copper, etc. I eventually think we will end up with plastic wires. Plastic and carbon are a virtually inexhaustible resource (iron and steel is too), especially, with the increasing amount of work done on the electrolysis of carbon dioxide (I.E. the reversal of fossil fuel consumption) using renewable energy.
Simon's theory did not predict a constant decline of prices. Instead, he predicted that prices would rise. Then innovators would create radical new technologies and business models, causing prices to crash. Larger businesses continue to reduce prices little by little until they reach the price floor. Then prices rise again, repeating the cycle. You can think of these price increases as a bubble. For example, we are in an oil and energy conservation bubble. With renewable energy growth and falling prices in that sector, we will see an energy crash and glut.
I also believe that one day we will exhaust the resources of earth. I also predict we will be flying off to space the next day. I expect this to be very far in the future, but I do not know when.

Stop. Fact ignored. Solar energy prices fall 9% per year continuously. The amount of energy available from the sun is extreme, you can power the consumption of a US suburban family's life off of the energy hitting their roof with 20% efficient (typical) solar. The issue is mainly a manufacturing/cost reduction issue.
There is nothing else. Fossil fuels were a one time windfall for humanity. We squandered it and there's nothing we can do about it.
Using gasification and synthesis technology, we can foresee many potential solutions, including the diverse schemes that have been proposed and demonstrated for the conversion of CO2 and H2O in to oil using solar energy.

LAWRENCE, Kan. --- The Chattanooga Mocs went toe-to-toe
with No. 7 Kansas losing 69-55 Thursday night in Allen Fieldhouse. The loss
drops Chattanooga to 1-1 on the season, while the Jayhawks improve to 2-1.
It was the Farad Cobb (West Palm Beach, Fla.) show as the
freshman wowed the crowd reminding fans and media around the historic barn of a
performance by former Texas great Kevin Durant raining threes, Cobb set a UTC
freshman record with seven three-pointers made, six in leading his squad to a
halftime lead.
Ben McLemore scored a game-high 25 points for the
Jayhawks. Elijah Johnson chipped in 18 points and four assists, while Jeff
Withey posted a double-double with 11 points and 10 rebounds.
The first half belonged to the Mocs. They trailed 2-0
before scoring the next seven points to start the pendulum swing firmly in
their favor. It was 12-9 UTC when Cobb took over. He hit six of his seven treys
pushing the Mocs to a 12-points lead, 36-24, at 1:49. Three of his treys forced
30-second timeouts from the KU bench as it used all four 30's in the first 20
minutes of the game.
Cobb scored 18 points in 10 first-half minutes. His
played keyed a 36-28 UTC lead at the break.
The Mocs kept up the pressure to start the second stanza.
Z. Mason (Nashville, Tenn.) got it back to a 12-point lead, 42-30, with a
high-arcing three-pointer. Unfortunately, KU limited UTC without a field goal
over the next 12-and-a-half minutes when Cobb drilled his seventh three with
5:30 to play. It prompted a 27-7 run giving the Jayhawks a 57-49 lead.
That was as close as Chattanooga would get. McLemore and
Johnson scored 13 apiece to lead the Jayhawks to a come-from-behind victory,
Mason had 13 points, five rebounds and two blocks for
UTC. Drazen Zlovaric (Novi Sad, Serbia) chipped in 10 points of his own.
The Mocs return home to host the CBE Classic Sub-Regional
Sunday through Tuesday, November 18-20. Southeast Missouri, Troy and Louisiana
Tech come to the Roundhouse for a round-robin format.
SEMO is UTC's first opponent Sunday at 3 p.m. Troy
(Monday) and Louisiana Tech (Tuesday) follow at 7 p.m., the next two days. There
are a total of six games in three days for fans to enjoy. Tickets are available
at GoMocs.com or by calling 266-MOCS (6627).
