Service dogs are often used to assist with medical needs and disabilities and to help humans function in society. But drinking in a local bar with your "service dog" in tow is not crucial to functioning in society. And it took a Mount Pleasant officer to convince a local man of this.
A police report said this man bellied up the bar with his dog in tow.
The dog did have a service dog cover over him and was just lying on the floor.
The bartender told the customer that unless his dog was a true service dog he would have to leave and would not be served. He refused to leave so she called police.
When the officer arrived he questioned the customer who said the dog was utilized to search for cadavers
He presented the officer with a Service Dogs of American card and ID number for the dog.
He told the officer that the restaurant could not deny him service because his dog was a service dog.
The officer asked the customer what he utilized the dog for in particular and the customer said the dog relieves stress for him on an airplane when he flies.
The customer was clearly not on an airplane, and agreed to leave the bar.
He was also placed on trespass notice from the bar and then walked home.
A father had to call police on his own daughter one night because she snuck out of her bedroom window and stole his car.
The father told the officers that it wasn't unusual for his daughter to run away and police had been at their home because of it as recently as December.
The father was able to provide the officers with several names and addresses of her friends and places she might go.
The dad also showed the officers the last text message the daughter got on her phone, which the dad took away from the kid earlier that night.
That message asked what she was up to that night, so officers promised to check out that person's whereabouts as well.
And lastly, the dad told police that his daughter's boyfriend was just released from jail and lives nearby.
The daughter was entered into the system as a runaway, and the car was listed as stolen. Police then went out in search of the girl.
About 6 a.m. that next morning, the father called police to report that his daughter had come home.
The officer went to the home and counseled the girl on running away and stealing a car. She told the officer she was just riding around her neighborhood to attempt to alleviate her "stress."
She said she tried to wake her dad up and tell him she was going but he was highly medicated for a broken arm and did not respond.
Her dad said he did not want to press charges for the stolen car, but she was charged by police as a habitual runaway.
A father and a son got into an argument, according to a police report. A concerned citizen witnessed it and called police.
This citizen said they were behind a vehicle with two males and they appeared to be involved in an altercation.
The son then jumped out of the car when the car stopped.
Police found the boy in a nearby parking lot, and he said he had been in an argument with his dad in the car and that he got out of the car when his dad stopped at the light.
He said his father quickly drove off.
The boy told police, according to the report, that they got into an argument because he is a homosexual and he wanted to go to a shopping area in town to meet up with his boyfriend.
He then gave police his mother's name and phone number so she could come to the scene and pick him up.
In the meantime another officer located the dad and stopped him to see what was going on.
According to the report, the dad told the officer that the argument was just a verbal altercation over the fact that his son was gay.
He told the officer that he did not condone that kind of behavior and would not drive him anywhere to promote that kind of activity.
The kid's mother arrived and picked him up as she is the court-ordered guardian and his dad is only allowed visitation.
Police received a complaint about a man sleeping under the bridge.
They found the guy who said he was staying at the shelter downtown but got kicked out because he got caught drinking beer.
Police ran the man's name and found out he was wanted out of Pickens County for assault and battery 3rd but they denied extradition.
The report said that while talking to the man he started to become agitated and started naming police officers from other parts of the state and past dealings he had with them.
He then said he was glad some of them were dead and he would like to spit on their graves.
He admitted to having an extensive record including multiple charges of assault on a police officer. The man was advised that he could not sleep under the bridge and needed to go back to the shelter or find another one.
A Mexican immigrant went to the police department recently to report harassing phone calls and text messages. He spoke with an officer and explained that a fellow Mexican, living in the states, had been harassing him since last January.
He said the calls always come in at the end of the month and the man says if he does not pay him $5,000 he is going to tell everyone his mother is a prostitute and spread bad rumors about the victim's family.
The victim told the officer that this suspect comes from a prominent family in Mexico and often harasses people into giving him money.
The victim asked the officer to go by the man's home and tell him to stop calling and texting.
The report said that the suspect does not speak very good English and would not understand English over the phone. He asked the officer to warn the man in person.
A local woman had to call police because she went outside to find a deer impaled on her fence. The officer got permission from his supervisor to "dispatch" the deer. He sent the woman back inside her home and was able to put the deer out of its misery with one shot to the head. The resident's husband came home from work and said he would discard the carcass.

Rashad Evans says he's ?going to be back' after ?hard' fight against Antonio Rogerio Nogueira at UFC 156 - MMAmania.com
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans may be on the first two-fight skid of his nine-year career, but "Suga" wants to assure his supporters that he will be back better than ever.His words:
"Wow, wow! I thought I was going to do the whole show without someone bringing up that ... why!?!?!? But, since you brought it up, it was a hard fight for me, one that I lost. It was a mental fight for me and I lost it mentally-speaking. I had a great training camp, but no matter how far you are -- and no matter how long you have been in this sport -- it happens and you have to make sure you are ready to fight on all levels. But, I'm going to be back! [points to camera]."

I drew up some plans for a rifle back in march and have been slowly collecting material and various parts as time/funds permit.
I'm starting with a TAPCO flat and the front end off an M70AB2. Originally, I was going to custom make the entire trunnion, but I thin I can modify the milled stub off the M70 easily to avoid a complete scratch build on the front trunnion.
I decided to go with G3 mags for the 243 shells. The reasoning behind this was the simple fact that I think they are cool as hell looking for a mag. The gas block/forward sight and muzzle attachement are also going to look a lot like a G3/HK, so they'll compliment each other.
I'm still undecided on the BCG. I'll probably just modify the M70 BCG. I might have to redo the upper half of the carrier to fit my low-profile needs, but doing that and redoing the piston shouldn't be too hard. Due to a longer gas tube, i was already going to have to redo the piston.
Forward grips will be made from 6061-T6 aluminum and freefloat around the barrel assembly. The barrel is a Rem mod-700 in 243 win. I cut it down to 17.5" and the muzzle is target crowned and outside threaded for 9/16"x24 (i already had those tap/die combo).
I finished my AK bending jig and got it tweaked so it bends the flats to an inside width of 1.245". To use the G3 mags, I'm going with a magwell. I bent up one using 0.032", 1050 steel. This is nice in that it fits just inside the AK frame when properly sized to fit the mags and when the dimples have been flattened. In the pic, it's still a bit large. It'll get the top 1/2" or so trimmed off and fit up into the frame higher than what you see here. I won't trim it until I get the trunnion made and mounted and the rails welded in. It took three tries to get the "perfect" magwell....I don't want to trim too much and screw it up!
I'll get to work on it next weekend...assuming my wife doesn't go into labor this week! ....even then, I still might get to work a bit.
Here's pics of the magwell fitting:

This arm will undergo identical treatment as the experimental group, with the exception of the active agent (sertraline). This group will be placed on a placebo.
Drug: Placebo
The placebo will be dosed in an age depended manner. Participants aged 2-3 years of age will be given 2.5 mg of liquid placebo once per day for a period of six months. Participants aged 4 years to 5 years 8 months will be given 5 mg of liquid placebo once per day for a period of six months.
Experimental: Active
This arm will undergo identical treatment as the placebo group. This group will be placed on a the active agent.
Drug: Sertraline
Liquid sertraline (20 mg/cc) will be dosed in an age depended manner. Participants aged 2-3 years of age will be given 2.5 mg of liquid sertraline once per day for a period of six months. Participants aged 4 years to 5 years 8 months will be given 5 mg of liquid sertraline once per day for a period of six months.
Detailed Description:
This is a single center study and the UC Davis MIND Institute for fragile X syndrome (FXS) patients aged between 2 years and 5 years, 8 months old funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It is a double-blind control trial of sertraline (Zoloft), an anti-depressant typically used in the treatment of depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, and other conditions. The researchers are investigating the use of this selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) in FXS because a retrospective study has shown significant improvements in language and decreases in autistic behavior. There is also emerging evidence regarding the stimulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and the stimulation of neurogenesis when an SSRI is given early on in the development of animal models of Down syndrome. The researchers hope to see improvements in language stimulation, social gaze and social reciprocity, spatial attention, and a decrease in autistic behaviors.
The aim of this study is to carry out a double-blind placebo controlled trial of sertraline in children with FXS who are between the ages of 2 years and 5 years, 8 months old. At baseline, the researchers will assess behavioral and cognitive development. These children will be treated for six months with either sertraline or placebo. At the end of the six months, the researchers assess the same behavioral and cognitive measures as at the beginning of the study. The researchers will also assess the side effects of the sertraline treatment throughout the study.

Would love a rematch with kos. His tdd looked good against woodley.
Would love a rematch with kos. His tdd looked good against woodley.
Despite recent pleas, UFC boss Dana White still lukewarm on Paul Daley
"I don't know," White told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) when asked for his reaction to Daley's attempts to return to the UFC. "Bellator cut him for some reason."
When informed of the assault conviction that prompted Daley's ouster from the Viacom-owned promotion, White joked, "Sounds fun. Sounds like something I want to deal with."
And if you want beef, then bring the ruckus
Daley has shown a trend for things that stop him from fighting all dumb moves on his part. He couldn't hang with anybody who had a good ground game in the UFC, and havent seen his last few fights to see if he got any better. I say stay in sub par Org's were he can be a star.
I would love to see Diaz vs Daley 2

Our general interest e-newsletter keeps you up to date on a wide variety of health topics.
Prenatal care is an important part of a healthy pregnancy. Whether you choose a family physician, obstetrician, midwife or group prenatal care, here's what to expect during the first few prenatal appointments.
As soon as you think you're pregnant, schedule your first prenatal appointment. Set aside ample time for the visit. You and your health care provider have plenty to discuss! You might want to include your partner in the appointment as well.
Medical history
Your health care provider will ask many questions, including details about:
Be sure to mention even sensitive issues, such as domestic abuse, abortion or past drug use. Remember, the information you share will help your health care provider take the best care of you — and your baby.
If there's any part of your medical history that you don't want to share with your partner or other loved ones, mention it to your health care provider privately.
Due date
Few women actually give birth on their due dates. Still, establishing your due date — or estimated date of delivery — is important. An accurate due date allows your health care provider to monitor your baby's growth and the progress of your pregnancy, as well as schedule certain tests or procedures at the most appropriate time.
To estimate your due date, your health care provider will likely count ahead 40 weeks from the start of your last period — or add seven days to the first day of your last period and then subtract three months.
If there's any question about your due date — if you don't know the date of your last period or your periods are irregular, for example — your health care provider might recommend an early ultrasound to help confirm the date.
Physical exam
Your health care provider will check your weight, height and blood pressure. He or she will listen to your heart and assess your overall health.
Your health care provider might examine your vagina and the opening to your uterus (cervix) for any infections or abnormalities. Changes in the cervix and in the size of your uterus can help confirm the stage of your pregnancy.
You might need a Pap test to screen for cervical cancer as well, depending on how long it's been since your last screening.
Lab tests
At your first prenatal visit, blood tests might be done to:
A urine sample might be tested for signs of a bladder, urinary tract or kidney infection.
Lifestyle issues
Your health care provider will discuss the importance of proper nutrition and prenatal vitamins. Your first prenatal visit is a good time to discuss exercise, sex during pregnancy and other lifestyle issues. You might also discuss your work environment and the use of medications during pregnancy.
If you smoke, ask your health care provider for suggestions to help you quit.
Screening tests for fetal abnormalities
Prenatal tests can provide valuable information about your baby's health. Your health care provider might offer ultrasound, blood tests or other screening tests to detect fetal abnormalities.

Wind: 0 mph
On Saturday, November 3, Harwood Union High School's varsity field hockey team defeated U-32 in a close 1-0 game to become this fall's Division II state champions.
This is the third year in a row that the Highlanders have won the state championship title and coach Heidi Hill couldn't be prouder. "Harwood and U-32 is a big rivalry," Hill said. "We played them twice during the regular season and came up short in both games," she explained, even though the team played perhaps better than they'd been playing all season.
In leading up to the championship game, Hill spent time switching around her team's lineup, so on Saturday the U-32 girls saw "a team they hadn't really seen before," Hill said.
"It was a very even game and could have gone either way," Hill said, but in the end, the new lineup prevailed when Guusje Damsteeg (an exchange student from Holland) scored off of a corner in the last 10 minutes of the game, and Highlander goalie Meg Meany—who had three saves overall—stopped U-32 from scoring in the game's final moments.
Other key players in Saturday's game included forwards Haley Spittle, Emily Reagan, Katie Martin and Sarah Wry, who all contributed greatly to the Highlanders' offensive runs and scoring opportunities. Defenders Ahn Jacobson, Guusje Damsteeg, Ashley Nelson, Rebecca Hamel, Chase Fortier and Jocelyn Noyes also demonstrated tremendous skill, making it difficult for any U-32 offense to break through their wall.
Hill is sad to be losing 11 seniors this year, but here's hoping that the Highlanders' field hockey state championship tradition can continue in the coming years!

A sea of white creates the perfect casual retreat.
In this boathouse's narrow upper-level bedroom, designer and owner Michelle Lloyd installed floating ledges flanking the bed. "Having no tables or table lamps lends ease to a tight space," she explains. The antique French sconces, which the couple had owned for years, were painted white and capped with elongated contemporary shades.

iOS gets a new Google Search app, and it holds its own against Android
Google today announced an updated Search app for iOS devices. That in and of itself is should be cause for celebration, but it's the the new voice search that has us particularly excited. (Especially since Siri hasn't quite lived up to expectations.)
So how's Google Search stack up? Set side by side with its Android counterpart, quite well. We gave it a gander from an Android Central point of view and came away pretty impressed. Lacking on iOS is the deep integration with the operating system, but that's to be expected. Have a look at the video after the break and see for yourself.

iOS gets a new Google Search app, and it holds its own against Android
Those who have the iPhone 4 or 3gs or iPad 2 and 1 this is perfect for them and I think better!!'
+1. I just asked for tomorrow's weather forecast and the app spoke it loud. And the text does sound much more human/smoother than Siri. An unexpected (and awesome) surprise!
Can someone tell me how to get the app to speak, it won't speak for me on my iphone 4s, am i missing a setting?
I believe you have to have the settings for English for starters. Other than that, I'm not sure. It doesn't speak back EVERYTHING. Some questions that got it to speak back for me: "what's the weather like tomorrow?" "What time is it in Japan?" "who do the Bears play next ?" "Who's the president of the Phillipines?"
Got your answer. Go the settings of the app (the little "i" in the lower left hand corner) and make sure that "speak answers back" is set to "on."
Another plus: this app gives you directions/integrates with Google Maps (web version) and not iOS maps.
Impressive -- significantly faster than Siri, while being equal or better in terms of accuracy (at least in my limited testing). Most surprisingly, Google's offering is much, *much* more personable than Apple's. It suffers from not being able to access the rest of the system, though -- if it could be allowed deeper access into the system, I would definitely use it.
Praise the lord i have been waiting for this update to the google search app for such a long time. If your still on ios5 this app is ridiculously useful because it can tie into your maps app etc and deliver. Been waiting for a while ever since i saw this and am elated that apple didnt restrict it
Downloaded this and have been playing around with it for the last day or so. Obvious issue is non-integration with iOS, but the speed is nice. Also nice to take you right to google results page. And while I think it can do a few things Siri cannot at this point, there are things Siri can do that this app will never be able to do without iOS integration, like setting appointments, reminders, etc. I will continue to play around with both, but I think I will remain partial to Siri for sheer sassiness (and she calls me by my nickname (I have no life).

I will start out positive by saying that Ethan is doing something new every day. I am so happy with his developmental progress in every area over the past couple of months. Things are going very well. And he will be TWO next mth!!
He had a sleep study Monday night to try to get him off the vent when he's sleeping. They totally screwed up and waited too long to take him off and they only got 1/2 hour of him sleeping off the vent before he woke up. I'm praying it wasn't a wasted night and that it doesn't delay all of the other things...like his surgery and ultimately his trach coming out. If things happen too late we will end up with the trach until next spring because they will not do the upper airway surgery or remove the trach during the winter. I'm totally fine if there's a delay because he's not ready...but it's so frustrating when there's a delay because someone messed up!
I've been really struggling the past couple of weeks because Ella's 3rd b-day is May 10. I hate when the pain comes back as if it was yesterday. That gut-wrenching pain where you feel like your chest is caving in from the weight and you can't take another breath. It doesn't happen to me very often anymore but has been very heavy on my mind lately. Can't seem to get through a day without sobbing. It's not really like me to do this several days in a row. But something kinda cool happened the other day. I had a breakdown in my car on the way to the grocery store. So I went in with swollen, red eyes and I was getting Ethan's pediasure. The cashier was asking questions about it and I told her that my son has a g-tube. The man in line behind me started asking questions about him and I told a short version of E's story...including VERY low birth weight. The man pointed out that I should consider Ethan my miracle this Easter. I realized that he is right and that no matter how bad it feels that I don't have Ella here...I still have so many miracles in my life. Just a little inspiration! Hope everyone has a great holiday!!

A pool of potential jurors were at the Georgetown County Courthouse Monday for a lawsuit filed against Sheriff Lane Cribb by two women who were sexually assaulted by a guard at the County Detention Center while they were incarcerated in 2009.
But, before the jury pool was narrowed to the ones who would hear the case, a settlement was reached.
One of the women was awarded $100,000 in the agreement while the other will receive $50,000.
There was a third woman who was 19-years-old at the time and was in the cell. She was also assaulted by the guard, Belvin Lee Sherrill. She filed a separate lawsuit in Federal Court and was awarded $200,000. The women are not being named by the Georgetown Times because they are victims of sexual assault.
Sherrill was arrested and was sentenced to 18 months in prison. He is now out of prison and is living in North Carolina.
Sherrill did not show up for what was scheduled to be a trial this week, said defense attorney Robin Jackson.
After the settlement was reached, Cribb said he was glad for the women and for his office that the matter can be put to rest.
This was a horrible thing that happened to these women, Cribb said after the settlement was announced.
According to court documents, while Sherrill was in full uniform he entered the cell, exposed himself and ordered the women to perform fellatio on him. The suit says Sherrill later returned to the cell and ordered one of the women to perform the act a second time.
While the acts were taking place, the suit states, the three women in the cell were repeatedly pushing the panic button but it apparently was not working. The women say at no time did any other employee intervene or take any actions to protect the women from harm.
The following day, Sherrill slid a letter under the cell door apologizing for the incident, the suit states.
Bell said Monday during the investigation letters were found that Sherrill had written to other female inmates.
Cribb said he takes the safety and protection of the inmates very seriously.
That is why we have such a vigorous application process in place. Applicants for detention officers at that time were required to have a criminal background check, a financial check, a polygraph and a psychological exam. In addition they were interviewed by several members of command staff, Cribb said. Sherrill gave no indications of any problems during the application process, or during his employment, until he committed this act. As soon as it was discovered, Sherrill was terminated, prosecuted and is now a registered sex offender. I did not put up with such acts from my staff then, and I will not put up with it now.
As for the buzzer that did not work in the womens cell, Jackson said it was a computer problem that was fixed and continues to work.
Bell, when putting the settlement information on the court record, said there was no truth to statements made by Sherrill in his answer to the lawsuit. As reported previously. Sherrill claimed one of the women did flash her breasts at him as he was walking by the cell.
He also claims both women tried to coerce him into bringing them cigarettes and when he refused to do so they made the allegations against him.
The Sheriff had nothing to do with (Sherrills) answer, Jackson added. The sheriff was upset when he heard someone took advantage of inmates.
Circuit Court Judge Edward Cottingham agreed, calling Sherrills claims ridiculous.

Liquor control board revokes license of Doug's Bar in BenningtonMarch 30,2013Vt. liquor board
revokes bar license
BENNINGTON — A downtown bar, Doug's on Main Street, was shut down abruptly on Friday after their liquor license was revoked by the Vermont Liquor Control Board following a hearing on Wednesday, according to Bennington Police Chief Paul Doucette.
Sgt. Thomas Curran, who serves with the Vermont Department of Liquor Control, served the paperwork at DOM, Inc., which operates as Doug's Bar. The papers were given to Doug Goble, who owns the business along with his mother, Mary Goble.
The order gives Goble 15 days to remove the alcohol from the premises.
Doucette said Doug's can no longer serve, sell or give alcohol away. If alcohol is served there, it would be a criminal offense that could be punishable by a $1,000 fine or a six-month jail sentence.
The bar was shut down after an undercover operation uncovered violations in January. Another undercover operation resulted in a 10-day liquor license suspension in September.
Doug's has been a controversial business in Bennington. The Select Board has had several discussions about the business based on reports from Doucette that several criminal incidents either happened at Doug's or involved people who had been drinking there.
Doucette said Doug's had been the site of more than 100 incidents since he took over as chief in 2010. Doucette said Goble was very cooperative when the order was served on Friday.MORE IN This Just InThe family of a Connecticut man who was killed in a car accident on Route 4 last Friday night is...

Rated 5 out of 5 by CaritCake Love Love Love! I just adore the statement this sandal makes. They can be worn with just about everything and really are beautiful. The Gold embellishment hurt my feet the first couple times I wore them but now I am use to it. I thought the actual straps are a bit wide, but the length of the shoe is just right for me. I am an 8.5. If I would have gotten an 8, the straps around the foot would have fit me perfect, but the length probably would have been a bit too small so 8.5 worked out good for me. They are comfortable and I get compliments each time I wear them! June 24, 2013

Friday, March 29, 2013
Dear Editor,
This year marks the 75th anniversary of the March of Dimes! More than four million babies were born last year in the United States and the March of Dimes helped each and every one through 75 years of research, education, vaccines and breakthroughs.
The March of Dimes helps moms have full-term pregnancies and researches the problems that threaten the health of babies.
You have been touched by the March of Dimes if.
• You or your child received a polio vaccine;
• You took the B vitamin folic acid before and during pregnancy to prevent birth defects;
• You or someone you know is one of the nearly 9,000 parents who had a premature baby in South Carolina this year;
• You had a healthy baby due in part to regular prenatal care
The March of Dimes also provides support and resources to families while at the hospital, wondering when or if they'll be able to take their baby home. And, for 75 years, they have worked to prevent prematurity, birth defects and infant mortality through research and community-based programs.
March for Babies is the easiest way you can support The March of Dimes mission. Join the family and corporate teams and individual walkers who will walk in honor of a baby they love to raise much-needed funds. This year's event is a special celebration of 75 years of improving the health of babies. We will be walking because we understand the importance of bringing healthy babies into the world. After all, Trident Health welcomes almost 3,000 new residents to the Lowcountry each year – we want each and every one of them to get a good start.
March for Babies in Charleston will take place on April 27th at Cannon Park. We invite you to join us. Bring your family, friends and colleagues to walk three very special miles to celebrate 75 years of work towards healthy babies.
Sign up at marchforbabies.org today.

Ecamm is awesome sauce. I don't know how many busted iPhones I helped recover stuff from using PhoneView, and having Printopia on my mini saves me from having to shell out for an "AirPrint-compatible" printer.
Ecamm shows off PhoneView and Printopia Pro at Macworld|iWorld 2013
We met up with Glen Aspeslagh of Ecamm at Macworld|iWorld 2013 to talk about PhoneView, their iOS device backup and file explorer utility for Mac, and Printopia Pro, their bigger, more enterprise friendly printing software.
PhoneView lets you plug your iOS device into your Mac and do all sorts of amazing things, not only letting you backup every bit of your device, but also explore and extract things like SMS/MMS/iMessages so you can save them or print them out, and copy off game data so you can switch devices without losing your progress.
Printopia lets you use iOS AirPrint with printers that don't come with built-in support. Basically, it takes any printer your Mac can reach, and makes it available to your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.
Glen and his brother Ken are outstanding at not only finding pain points in the Apple and iOS ecosystems, but on figuring out how it works (or doesn't) and programming software that fixes it.
I keep PhoneView backups of all my devices, just in case of iCloud or iTunes failure, and like I said in the video, I have friends who are still alive only because PhoneView let them save their spouses' game data.

Phonevu creates a backup of your iDevices so the temp file can grow huge.
1. Unfortunately there is no pref setting to designate the location of this path: it defaults to & is hard-wired to: /var/folders/tempfolder so there is no way to relocate this to another volume where there is lots of room for a 4-10GB temp file. This congestion can create system performance bottlenecks when other apps also are producing their own large temp files (software updates can suck up a few gigs; iTunes sync apps can cause a big bump, etc).
2. There is no ability to turn-off device scan at device connect-time either manually or by auto-sense: thus valuable space for the temp file is consumed on the boot drive — which can prove perilous to system stability when already running in a low-memory situation!
(eg the "low app memory" message can cause one or several or even all apps to be forcibly paused until more drive space is freed up …
(Sadly these days, since apple no longer performs QA on osx, manually purging RAM & the VM swap space -by closing some piggy apps – hey! web bowsers I'm looking at you!- the results of the purge will not always be properly communicated back to the kernel thereby leaving the paused apps frozen permanently in limbo, which in turn requires a forced-quit … and that is a pretty brutal way to re initialize memory, so any app which cant control how / when / where it's temp files are going to be created is somewhat of a hazard!
3. Conversely, when you specifically do want it retain the temp file as an archive, there is no way to permanently save this backup (!) because it is flushed from the temp folder as soon as the messaging data has been archived (its nice to have an alternative to itunes for the dev backup: apple's backup is notoriously opaque & sometimes unreliable).
4. However, even if the user is lucky enough to manually save the temp archive (this requires some pretty adroit timing just after the Snapshot has completed), Phonevu offers no browser to view / edit / restore the contents of the archive — let alone merge the changes (or save only the changes) amongst several saved snapshots …
… Ecamm could have collaborated with other backup utility maestros like CarbonCopyCloner or Superduper to create a plugin architecture so these more exotic forms of archiving that have their own device-centric formats (eg the iTunes & iPhoto libraries, Time Machine libraries, the Phonevu libraries, the DiskTools Directory caching, the DiskCataloguing thumbnails & Spotlight metadata indexes, etc) could be part of a more coherent vendor-neutral archive management platform (since apple is adamantly unwilling to & incapable of delivering plug'n'play anymore).
As it is, each of these islands of vendor-specific archives is only partially complete & completely uninteroperable because each of thee small ISV's refuse to either merge together or else simply co-operate with each other in order to create a true, comprehensive, unified backup platform that delivers on the real-world, nitty-gritty details of the "digital hub" — which like most other vaunted Steve Jobs' concepts was simply orphaned once another shinny idea caught his attention.
Conclusion: It would be nice to see some flexibility about Archive management - but Ecamm isn't particularly keen at listening to or delivering on customer requirements (you can ask for YEARS for a feature but don't hold your breath).

"It was convenient and worked well with our schedule."
"Fantastic service from the folks running the lot, to the shuttle driver. So helpful, made you feel like friends, and really cared that your vehicle was safely parked and secure. So much better than trying to navigate traffic in Arrowhead Stadium. Again everyone of the staff were 5 star, and Apex should be proud they represent their company. Steve and Deann Z."
"It was perfect! We didn't have to wait long and didn't have to walk far!"
"It was our first trip to arrowhead so we had no idea about parking. We found parkwiz online and reserved our spot for game day. This turned out to be a very good find as we were able to park easily and they transported us right to the stadium quickly and picked us up in a timely manner."
"The staff was awesome and it was cheaper and easier than parking at the stadium."
"Very con eminent. Staff was great. Highly recommend"
This is a large open parking location that is ideal for tailgating pregame and a quick and easy exit from the area after the game. A FREE SHUTTLE will take to the game and pick you up after.
This location is a commercial parking lot.
This lot is located at the intersection of US 40 and Lewis Ave. The entrance will be on the south side of US 40. Right before the entrance you will see a speed limit 40 sign that will help identify you have reached the correct location.

The Biology Major provides students with extensive training in a range of biological subject areas, principles and practices. The curriculum gives students a broad background in biology while providing for specialization in a particular sub-discipline such as environmental biology, organismal biology, plant biology or cell and molecular biology. Students also gain extensive experience in the processes of logical problem-solving and experimental design that characterize scientific investigation. Most biology majors pursue graduate work in biology or the health professions, but many enter careers in government, business, law, journalism, secondary school teaching, or with environmental consulting firms, conservation organizations or biotechnology companies. The department also offers a minor.
The faculty of the Biology Department believes strongly in the value of learning not just what is known about biology, but how biologists acquire that knowledge. Most courses include laboratories in which students gain first-hand experience with the processes of biological inquiry. Strong emphasis on learning to think scientifically is reflected in the department's senior exercise, in which each student develops an original biological investigation of a problem of his or her choice. The faculty also encourages students to spend a summer and one or more semesters involved in biological research, either working with a faculty member on campus or through one of many available research internship programs or biological field station programs. Students particularly interested in plant biology can take advantage of course and research offerings among all The Claremont Colleges (see http://www.rsabg.org/research for details).
The department is housed in the Richard C. Seaver Biology Building, an innovative and energy-efficient building certified by the U.S. Green Building Council, and in the newly renovated Seaver South Building. Laboratories are equipped with advanced instrumentation for experimentation in all the major fields of biology, from molecular genetics and cell biology to physiology and ecology. Facilities include environmentally controlled greenhouses, walk-in warm and cold rooms and plant growth chambers. The local Robert J. Bernard Biological Field Station, owned by The Claremont Colleges, includes several natural habitats that serve courses in ecology, evolutionary and organismal biology and animal behavior. The department also uses the Pomona College-owned Herman Garner Ecological Preserve in Evey Canyon, Claremont and the Mildred Pitt Ranch in Monterey County for field research.
Three interdisciplinary majors are available for students who want to combine the study of biology with another discipline. The Molecular Biology Major combines chemical and biological approaches to the study of macromolecules, the Environmental Analysis Major integrates several fields focusing on sustainability and the management of environmental challenges and the Neuroscience Major combines approaches used in biology, psychology and other sciences. In addition, the joint Biology/Public Policy Analysis Major allows students to combine the study of how society formulates and implements policy with the core areas of the Biology Major. Interested students should consult with their biology advisors and the respective program coordinators.

Arizona Cardinals
Kevin Spencer: Devin Hester is 'a guy you need to eliminate'
Arizona Cardinals punter Dave Zastudil might be the team's Most Value Player in 2012. Now obviously that might say more about the state of the team this season than Zastudil, but the nine-year veteran has been crucial in setting up the Cardinals' defense throughout the regular season.
The overused Zastudil leads the league in punts (98), punt yardage (4,546) and fair catches (33). He is also first in the NFC in punts placed inside the 20-yard line (38), and arguably more astounding is the fact that not one of his 98 attempts has been blocked this season.
Heading into Week 16 against the Chicago Bears, not a single opponent has run one of Zastudil's punts back for a touchdown, but regardless, Arizona's punter may have to err on the side of caution Sunday.
After all, he'll be kicking to a man, whose mere presence on a football field can be quite frightening.
The Bears Devin Hester hasn't run back a punt or kickoff in 2012, however in six-plus NFL seasons the former second-round pick and three-time Pro Bowler has likely already stamped his ticket to Canton.
Despite being shut out of the end zone this season on special teams, Hester already owns the NFL records for most punt return touchdowns in a career with 12 and combined kick return touchdowns with 17.
Hester is no stranger to University of Phoenix Stadium, either. One of those 12 punt return touchdowns capped a feverish fourth quarter comeback capped a feverish fourth quarter comeback by Chicago on a Monday night to forget in the Valley back in 2006.
Hester has also torched Arizona kicker Jay Feely during his career. In a Sunday night game against the New York Giants during that same 2006 season, Feely attempted a 52-yard field goal that fell yards short of the mark and into the secure mitts of Hester. The former Miami standout took advantage of a dazed New York special teams unit, and return the kick 108 yards for a touchdown (Chicago record).
So, although Hester is not ranked in the top 10 in either kick or punt return average this season, the Cardinals, and more specifically Zastudil, will guard against the big play when it comes to kicking to a specialist who holds nine league records.
"It starts with our specialists, because [Hester] returns kicks also, our specialists have to do a good job," Cardinals special teams coach Kevin Spencer told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf Friday. "Our coverage squad is going to be challenged. This is why you play the game. You play to test your skills against the other guy's skills. We are going to be tested big-time, there's no doubt about that."
While every position coach wants to show he has supreme confidence in his respective group, Spencer said he will likely follow some sage advice he once received from Bill Belichick.
"I learned a lesson a long time ago from Bill Belicheck," said Spencer. "Belichick use to say 'You need to eliminate the people that can beat you.' Devin Hester is a guy you need to eliminate.
"I always tell the guys, 'Look if you want to take this personal or think that I don't believe in you, that's on you...because this guy is a game-changer. We don't want him changing the game.'"
While Spencer elected to use the word "creative" when describing his game plan to eliminate what Hester does well, he also indicated that Arizona will likely not be afraid to kick away or out of bounds to counter Chicago's special teams standout.
So will Zastudil on Sunday do what Scott Player could not? For now, that remains to be seen.

Quick Facts
Latin Name: Lactuca sativa
Days to Maturity or Bloom: 52
Plant Cycle: (A)
Shipping Information & Notes
Many (but not all) of our pelleted lettuce varieties are primed to increase germination uniformity, and to break thermal and/or light dormancy. However, the priming process decreases the storage life of the seed so pelleted seed must be kept cool and dry prior to planting, and should be used within one year of purchase.
Additional Information:
About Our Pelleted Seed

Lettuce Varieties | Quick Reference Chart
Growing Information
CULTURE: Lettuce is hardy and can be planted as early as the soil can be worked. It is a cool weather crop and grows best at temperatures of 60-65°F (15.5-18.3°C). Careful variety selection is important for hot weather plantings. Sow every 3 weeks for a continuous supply of fresh lettuce.
THERMAL DORMANCY: Lettuce seed can enter thermal dormancy when exposed to high temperatures. Optimum germination results at soil temperatures of 60°-68°F (15.5-20°C). The priming process in pelleted lettuce seeds broadens the temperature range in which the seeds will germinate, overcoming some of their thermal dormancy.
TRANSPLANTING: Sow in flats, 4 seeds/in., or in 3/4" plug trays, barely covering seeds with fine vermiculite, 3-4 weeks before transplanting outdoors. Shade the flats on sunny, warm days if necessary to keep the soil surface cool, below 75°F (24°C), until germination. If sowing into flats, transplant 1-2" apart into flats, pots, or cell-type containers about 2 weeks later. Harden seedlings by reducing water and temperature for 2-3 days before planting outdoors. Properly hardened transplants can survive temperatures as low as 20°F (-6°C). Transplant iceberg and romaine lettuce 10-12" apart, in rows 18" apart. Other types 8-10" apart in rows 12-18" apart for full size heads or 6" apart for mini heads.
DIRECT SEEDING: Seeds germinate even at low, 40°F (4°C), soil temperature, but poorly above 75°F (24°C) depending on the variety and seed lot. Sow seeds 1" apart, rows 12-18" apart. Cover seed lightly, about 1/8", and firm soil gently. Thin iceberg and romaine lettuce to one plant every 10-12", other types 8-10" for full size heads or 6" for mini heads. Dry soil must be watered to ensure coolness and moisture, and for uniform germination.
SALAD MIX/BABY LEAF: Sow in a 2-4" wide band, about 60 seeds/ft.
MT0 SEEDS: A variety's description followed by MT0-10 indicates that the seed offered for sale has been tested for the presence of Lettuce Mosaic Virus and that no LMV was found in a sample of at least 10,000 seeds. MT0-30 indicates that no LMV was found in a sample of at least 30,000 seeds.
NOTE: A disease-free test result does not guarantee a seed lot to be disease-free, only that in the sample tested, the pathogen was not found.
DAYS TO MATURITY: For full-size heads in mild temperatures from direct seeding; subtract 10-14 days if transplanting. Note: Maturity can be 3 or more weeks later in cool weather, and up to 1 week earlier in hot weather.
AVG. DIRECT SEEDING RATE: For full-size heads (precision seeded): 220'/1,000 seeds, 5,300'/oz., 5.5 oz./acre 2.5" apart in rows 18" apart. For baby leaf: 16'/1,000 seeds, 400'/oz., 6,400'/lb. at 60 seeds/ft.
TRANSPLANTS: Avg. 20,000 plants/oz.
SEED SPECS: SEEDS/OZ.: 20,000-30,000 (avg. 24,000).
PACKET: 500 seeds unless otherwise indicated.
