Bud Thomas has been playing mostly a complementary role for the best basketball team in the Atlantic Sun Conference this season.
On Friday night, Mercer's senior guard was the difference.
Thomas lit up East Tennessee State for seven 3-pointers in the first half on his way to 28 points as the streaking Bears raced to a 90-77 victory in the Dome.
It was the eighth straight win for Mercer, which improved to 18-5 and stands atop the A-Sun standings at 9-1, and its fifth in a row over the Bucs (11-11, 4-5).
"We did probably enough decent things offensively," said ETSU coach Murry Bartow. "The problem was that we absolutely couldn't get stops, and we couldn't rebound defensively. Thomas killed us."
An extra day of preparation — the game was postponed Thursday by treacherous road conditions in the Atlanta area — apparently didn't help the Bucs.
The Bears overcame an early 10-5 deficit with 13 straight points and were in command the rest of the way. Thomas hit a pair of treys in the run and then finished the half with three consecutive bombs in the last 2:20 as Mercer took a 45-31 advantage. They assisted on 13 of their 16 field goals, including a dozen 3-pointers.
"We played really good defense in the first half," said Mercer coach Bob Hoffman, "and our rebounding was fantastic. That led to some open threes. Bud Thomas has really been seeing the basket well recently."
The season-high crowd of 3,350, with a large student presence, was never able to get into the game for long. Each time the Bucs challenged the Mercer lead, Thomas would squeeze off another three, or the Bears would grab an offensive rebound and stick it back.
They controlled the boards 38-24, with Jakob Gollon collecting 11 and Thomas eight.
The Bucs shot 58 percent from the field in the second half, yet only outscored the Bears 46-45. The teams mostly traded baskets for the last 10 minutes, with Mercer never holding less than a 10-point edge.
The damage had already been done.
Thomas had been averaging just 9.2 points a game for the season, but he's known as a shooter. He made nine 3-pointers, a program record, while scoring a career-high 31 points against Lipscomb two weeks ago.
Against the Bucs, he went 8 of 14 from behind the arc, and the Bears were 14 of 27 as a team.
"He's a good player, a good shooter," said Rashawn Rembert, who led the Bucs with 19 points. "I think he missed his first two and then started lighting it up."
Said Bartow, "It's not like we didn't know who he was; we had discussed him ad nauseum. We were scrambling some defensively, made some mistakes and he got some good looks. When you get hot like that, the basket really starts looking big."
The Bears, with five seniors in their starting lineup, have been making everything look easy for the last month. They're outscoring conference opponents by an average of 79.3 to 61.2, and their last six wins have all been by at least 13 points.
"We've worked really hard and pointed to every game," said Hoffman. "We have a lot of different guys who can step up, and that's what makes this team special and unique. It's a great luxury we have … we have a lot of pieces that fit together."
The Bears, shooting 55 percent from the field, also got 13 points from Anthony White and 12 from Langston Hall, their all-conference point guard. Gollon chipped in with 10 and seven assists to go with his 11 rebounds.
Mercer had 22 assists against 10 turnovers in what qualified as a clinic all around.
The Bucs, meanwhile, had four players score at least a dozen points. Jalen Riley finished with 15, while Lester Wilson netted 14 and Hunter Harris 12.
Against some other team, it might have been enough.
"The offense looked good, but the defense was not up to par," said Rembert. "They got 90 on our home floor. They got any shot they wanted."
It was a very quiet night for Kinard Gadsden-Gilliard. ETSU's second-leading scorer this season went 0-for-6 from the field and finished with one point, one rebound and two assists in 26 minutes.
The Bucs will try to bounce back Sunday at home against Kennesaw State, the last-place team in the Atlantic Sun. Tipoff is 2 o'clock.

Delivery of the malware is the amusing part of this tale.
Should an Android-based phone owner be unwise enough to search for pornographic videos, they might find that a variety of Russian-language sites appear at the top of the search results.
According to Kaspersky's report on the new malware, "the owners of these adult content sites are deliberately prompting Android users to download the new Trojan, while users of other platforms receive the desired content."
Unlike many Windows-targeted viruses and trojans which are infecting merely by visiting a loaded web site, the Trojan-SMS must be manually installed by the user. The package, called porkplayer.apk is (supposedly) required to view the adult content videos.
During the installation process, the software requests permission to send SMS messages, something that ought to seem odd to anyone installing a media player.

The U.S. Geological Survey says the magnitude 7.5 quake struck at midnight Friday Alaska time and was centered about 60 miles west of Craig, Alaska.
The tsunami center says a tsunami with a "significant widespread inundation of land is expected."
The first wave was expected around 1:15 a.m. (2:15 a./m. PST) in Craig, and 2:50 in Cordova, further to the north.
The center says widespread dangerous coastal flooding is possible.
Reports from Sitka so far don't indicate any sizable waves.
That rumbling that started at approximately midnight was an earthquake roughly 50 miles south of Port Alexander and 70 miles west of Craig. The preliminary information from the Alaska Earthquake Information Center pegs the quake as a 7.2 in magnitude.
There is a tsunami warning in effect for the coastal areas from the northern tip of Vancouver Island to Cape Suckling, Alaska, approximately 75 miles southeast of Cordova.
An advisory is in effect for areas along the coast between Cape Suckling to Kennedy Entrance approximately 40 miles southwest of Homer.
So far there are no reports of damages in Juneau.
This is a developing story. Check back here for details.

Kiwomya has been caretaker manager of the League One club for four matches since Keith Curle was sacked at the beginning of February following a 2-1 defeat at then-bottom club Hartlepool.
After losing his first game away at Stevenage, Kiwomya is unbeaten in three outings. The former Arsenal and Ipswich striker gained his first win on Friday night as the Magpies came from behind to beat Bury 4-1 at Meadow Lane.
The result lifted them up to ninth in the table and eight points adrift of the play-off places ahead of Saturday's games.
The Notts County board have been impressed with Kiwomya's work and have put their faith in him for the club's remaining 13 matches.
Chairman Ray Trew said via a statement on the club's official website: "Chris has shown his desire and enthusiasm for the job and coupled this with a tactical astuteness that has allowed him to turn things around when they haven't been going exactly as we would have liked.
"We think Chris deserves the chance to build on the work that he has done in the short space of time that he has been in charge of first-team affairs and we are happy to confirm that he will be at the helm until the end of the current campaign.
"We will, of course, review the situation at the end of the season, but Chris now has the chance to show us exactly what he can do, in the knowledge that he has an extended spell in charge."
Reflecting on his side's performance in Friday night's 4-1 victory over Bury, Kiwomya said: "I thought Zoko really made a difference second half. I thought first half we played too many square balls and got punished for it with the goal.
"Once we got the first goal the guys thought we can go on and win this. We asked a lot more questions and to do that you need willing runners and we had that second half, closing down their keeper and running 40 yards to close down a ball which we did well."
Kiwomya said his job at the moment was all about "steering the ship forward" and he was just relieved to get three points.
He added: "We needed a win to get a bit of confidence as we had lost a couple of games and put a couple of bad performances in.
"I said that we needed to get the win first before we could start thinking about closing the gap on the top six and this gives us the confidence to think we can break in to that top six."
Kiwomya's first game as manager will be against Tranmere at Prenton Park on Tuesday evening.

The Forest People (Touchstone Books)by Collin Turnbull
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The Forest People — Colin M. Turnbull's best-selling, classic work — describes the author's experiences while living with the BaMbuti Pygmies, not as a clinical observer, but as their friend learning their customs and sharing their daily life.
Turnbull conveys the lives and feelings of the BaMbuti whose existence centers on their intense love for their forest world, which, in return for their affection and trust, provides their every need. We witness their hunting parties and nomadic camps; their love affairs and ancient ceremonies — the molimo, in which they praise the forest as provider, protector, and deity; the elima, in which the young girls come of age; and the nkumbi circumcision rites, in which the villagers of the surrounding non-Pygmy tribes attempt to impose their culture on the Pygmies, whose forest home they dare not enter.
The Forest People eloquently shows us a people who have found in the forest something that makes their life more than just living — a life that, with all its hardships and problems and tragedies, is a wonderful thing of happiness and joy.
The bestselling, classic text on one anthropologist's incredible experience living among the African Mbuti Pygmies, and what he learned from their culture, customs, and love of life.
In this bestselling book, Colin Turnbull, a British cultural anthropologist, details the incredible Mbuti pygmy people and their love of the forest, and each other. Turnbull lived among the Mbuti people for three years as an observer, not a researcher, so he offers a charming and intimate firsthand account of the people and their culture, and especially the individuals and their personalities. The Forest People is a timeless work of academic and humanitarian significance, sure to delight readers as they take a trip into a foreign culture and learn to appreciate the joys of life through the eyes of the Mbuti people.
About the Author
Colin M. Turnbull was born in London, and now lives in Connecticut. He was educated at Westminster School and Magdalen College, Oxford, where he studied philosophy and politics. After serving in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve during World War II, he held a research grant for two years in the Department of Indian Religion and Philosophy at Banaras Hindu University, in India, and then returned to Oxford, where he studied anthropology, specializing in the African field.
He has made five extended field trips to Africa, the last of which was spent mainly in the Republic of Zaïre. From these trips he drew the material for his first book, The Forest People, an account of the three years he spent with the Pygmies of Zaïre.
Mr. Turnbull was a Professor of Anthropology at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. He is a Research Associate at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, and a Corresponding Member of Le Musée Royal d'Afrique Centrale.

FORT BLISS, Texas, May 2, 2005 The Joint Civilian Orientation Conference's introduction to Fort Bliss on April 29 was highly symbolic of the nature and mission of the installation they were about to visit - and one the conference participants will never forget.
It began as the Air Force C-17 Globemaster III transporting the group began its approach into El Paso. The JCOC participants began to prepare for another ordinary landing at the next stop on their weeklong tour of U.S. military installations when the cabin of the C-17 suddenly went dark. A row of red lights lining the upper walls began to strobe, and the previously tranquil flight turned into a knuckle-gripping ride, as the pilot plunged the plane into a high-speed spiral dive and executed a fully manual landing.
With engines roaring and the sparse accommodations rattling from speed and thrust, the passengers quickly realized they were in the midst of a combat assault landing of the type U.S. forces used when landing at Baghdad airport at the height of hostilities.
Considering that training and deploying combat and combat support units and conducting support and stability operations in wartime are two of Fort Bliss's primary missions, the landing seemed quite appropriate. Welcome to the Army.
But the landing wasn't the only surprise in store for the JCOC. Stepping out of the plane and onto the stairway that led to the tarmac, the civic leaders were greeted by the famous 62nd U.S. Army Brass Band and walked down a red carpet lined with dignitaries waiting to welcome them. In the distance, three men in kilts sounded bagpipes playing ancient Scottish war songs.
A hero's welcome -- again nothing new for Fort Bliss, which serves as a main embarkation and demobilization point for individuals and units coming and going to Iraq. Since the beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom, more than 60,000 troops of all services have either trained at Fort Bliss before deploying, or passed through the base on their way back to private life.
"So this is what it feels like to come home to post," one of the participants remarked.
The experiences were just the beginning of the JCOC's introduction to Army life, and especially Army life in the American Southwest.
Over a backyard dinner at the home of Fort Bliss's commanding general, Maj. Gen. Michael A. Vane, the JCOC participants were served a buffet of typical Southwest cuisine, and entertained by flamenco and mariachi dancers.
Of course, dinner and dancers at the home of the commanding general is not part of a typical homecoming, but then the JCOC is not a typical group.
Begun in 1948, the JCOC is a weeklong, multiservice orientation program for civilian leaders. The program is a favorite of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, who spoke to the group over a Pentagon breakfast on April 25, the day the JCOC journey began to stateside bases. The current conference is the 69th since 1948.
Dinner ended with a live presentation of Lee Greenwood's famous song "God Bless the USA" and some parting comments from Vane, who thanked the JCOC "for all you do to support the military and especially the Army in the global war on terror."
The next morning, JCOC participants began their tour of Fort Bliss. First stop: Patriot Air and Missile Defense.
The Patriot battalion at Fort Bliss was the first to be armed with Patriot Advanced Capability-3 missiles - new "hit-to-kill" technology that holds 16 missiles rather than the four held by the older version. In 2001, a lighter, quicker version of the system, the "Patriot Light" debuted at Fort Bliss.
Designed in keeping with the military's transformation toward lighter and more lethal forces, the Patriot Light was built to fit on a heavy Humvee. It is not only more maneuverable, efficient, faster and cheaper to deploy, but allows for a rapid response when little time is available for a massive buildup of forces.
After a quick briefing, the JCOC was bused out to Patriot Park, home of the Army's Air Defense Center, to see and learn about the PAC-3 and its capabilities. In addition to U.S. forces, the forces of 28 allied nations have been trained on the Patriot system at Fort Bliss.
The Patriot is capable of engaging a wide variety of weapons, in addition to tactical ballistic missiles. "If it flies, it dies," was the way one briefer put it. The equipment is maintained 24 hours a day.
JCOC participants inspected the basic parts of the Patriot system: the antenna mast, the PAC-3 radar, the phased-array radar, the Patriot launching station, and - the fun part - the PCROFT, or Patriot Conduct of Fire Trainer. "That's where you can actually get in the system and kill something," the PCROFT instructor said.
And that's exactly what the JCOC did. Inside the PCROFT, the group learned how to interpret the signs and signals of an incoming weapon; identify it as friendly, hostile or unknown; track it; determine its intent; lock on to it; and fire - watching the Patriot launch, rise along a projected track, and take out the enemy weapon.
"Awesome," was the one-word response from several JCOC participants - a reaction expressed repeatedly throughout their weeklong experiences.
Later in the day, the JCOC group made its way out to the McGregor Range Base Camp in New Mexico, about 28 miles north of Fort Bliss. The range encompasses about 1.1 million acres, about the same size as Rhode Island.
At the range, the JCOC received a crash course in gun safety and holding, aiming and firing a 9 mm pistol. They then donned protective vests, ear and eyewear and were escorted onto the range in groups to fire the weapons using live ammunition. They also got to keep the targets.
At a stop earlier in the week at Parris Island, S.C., JCOC members learned how to simulate firing a 9 mm at an indoor range, but this was their first experience on the pistol with live ammunition. They also practiced firing rocket-propelled grenade and Stinger missile launchers, firing simulated canisters rather than live ammunition, and posed for pictures with the deadly shoulder mounted weapons that have done so much damage in the hands of terrorists.
Between Patriot Park and McGregor Range, JCOC participants had lunch at the Stafford Dining Facility and shared their meal with a group of soldiers departing for Iraq. The participants got a chance to spend time with the soldiers, ask how they felt about their mission, and thank them for their service.
"The whole trip has been very impressive for me," said JCOC participant Nicole de Lara Valdes, an executive with E! Entertainment Television, Latin America. "The technology, the logistics -- my jaw has hit the floor more than once, but I had a knot in my throat when we were having lunch with those guys who were about to be deployed.
"One said he was given seven days to go home and see his family," she continued, "but he told me he just couldn't say goodbye to his 22-month-old daughter again. My heart went out to him and his family. That was probably the most emotional part of the trip for me. How do you appreciate that? It's very different to read about it in the papers than it is to look into the eyes of someone who is about to be deployed."
The JCOC's indoctrination into the Army at Fort Bliss ended much as it began. After the participants loaded their belongings into the great cabin of the C-17 and strapped themselves into their seats, the huge plane taxied down the runway, slowed to a crawl, then rose like a rocket into the evening sky, engines roaring in a perfect tactical ascent.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - A historic but shuttered Indian school overlooking northern Santa Fe is being marketed as a possible senior living facility.
The century-old St. Catherine Indian School campus has been on the market at $4 million for about two weeks.
Listing agent Jack Dettweiler says he has fielded serious inquiries.
The property is in foreclosure but Dettweiler tells the Santa Fe New Mexican the bank's attorney gave him permission to try to sell the land.
Dettweiler says he's telling potential buyers to forget about trying for retail, industrial or office uses because of neighborhood opposition and traffic limits.
Instead, he's focusing on developers who specialize in senior housing.
The buildings need millions in renovations.
The site has historic-property designations that prevent destruction of significant buildings.
The school closed in 1998.

Sunday Homes: A great escape
CORPUS CHRISTI - As Jordan Anderson's father, Alex Harris, began developing the Cottages at Pirates Bay in Port Aransas in 2009, the Anderson family started using his models for weekend getaways. But when the units started to sell quickly, they decided they had to have one of their own. With the help of Corbin Brady of RBI Designs, they made the 1,350-square-foot townhome their own by filling it with a fun mix of beautiful furnishings, fixtures and art amongst the home's white pine walls and hardwood floors. The home also offers all the fun of Port Aransas within minutes from the front door.
Why do you love this home?We live in Corpus Christi, however, the beach house is far enough away from our home to feel like a vacation and close enough that we can go every weekend.
Why did you decide on this home? Port Aransas is one of our favorite places. We have both been coming here since we were kids.
I get ideas/inspiration for my house by... looking at magazines and websites, especially Houzz and Pinterest.
Places where I find home furnishings: All of our furnishings were sourced and purchased through Corbin Brady of RBI Designs. I would pull out pages from magazines and hand then over to Corbin. He pretty much took it from there.
My home's best feature: It lives much larger than 1,350 square feet.
Three words that describe my home: Family, friends and fun.
If my kitchen walls could talk...they'd fit right in with our family. Quiet is not something we do.
What I like most about my home: The location. Port A has some truly great restaurants and we are a few minutes from the beach.
My home's most complimented feature: The layout, design and furniture. We have these two swivel chairs in the living room from Crate & Barrel and they are so comfortable. We've named them the "de motivators."
Favorite room:I'd have to say the bunk room for the kids. That room stays dark and cold in the summertime and the kids sleep in longer in the morning and during afternoon naps.
A funny story about my home: The couches and the de motivators are white and we've had children of all ages running through the house but the only people who spill on the furniture are the adults.
Favorite home-related book or magazine: House Beautiful, Dwell and Pinterest. Each has a broad spectrum of design ideas and provides a lot of inspiration.
Unannounced guests would find my home... stocked with good wine and beer.
I'll never throw out...the seashells we've collected with our daughter, Harlan.

Waterloo – Three more top players on the LPGA Tour join the field for the 2014 Manulife Financial LPGA Classic at Grey Silo Golf Course, June 4 to 8.
Joining previously announced No. 2 ranked Stacy Lewis, and No. 3 ranked Lydia Ko, is the number one player in the Rolex Women's World Golf Rankings, Inbee Park. Park is a nine-time winner on the LPGA Tour, and first player in the modern era to win the first three major championships of the season (Kraft Nabisco Championship, Wegmans LPGA Championship and U.S. Women's Open) in 2013. Park was awarded Rolex Player of the Year in 2013, becoming the first South Korean in LPGA Tour history to hold this title. Park won the money title for the second-consecutive year and became just the second player in history to earn at least $2 million in back-to-back seasons.
Suzann Pettersen, the fourth-ranked player in the Women's Rolex Golf Rankings, has won 14 tournaments as a professional, on the LPGA Tour. She is coming off an extremely strong performance in the 2013 season, notching four LPGA victories, including her second-career major championship at The Evian Championship. The Oslo, Norway native is currently in her 11th season on the LPGA Tour and is currently the highest ranked European player in the world.
Anna Nordqvist also joins the field for the Manulife Financial LPGA Classic. In 2013, Nordqvist recorded five top-10 finishes, and crossed the $3 million mark in career earnings after a T11 finish at the U.S. Women's Open. Nordqvist, currently No. 5 in the Race to CME Globe, is up against previously announced Stacy Lewis, Michelle Wie, and Lydia Ko in the race for the top spot.
"With the announcement of the contract extension from our title sponsor Manulife, along with the support by the local community, and the competitive field we are able to attract, I am confident that this tournament will be a memorable one," says Manulife Financial LPGA Classic Tournament Director Richard Kuypers.
CME Globe
The inaugural Race to the CME Globe kicked off the week of January 20 at the Pure Silk Bahamas LPGA Classic. Players accumulate points at each official LPGA event, and will come to an exciting conclusion at the newly renamed CME Group Tour Championship. The winner of the CME Group Tour Championship will take home a $500,000 first-place prize, while the player who has accumulated the most points in the season-long points competition will be announced as the Race to the CME Globe champion with a $1 million unofficial money payout – the largest in all of women's golf!

It's often said that passion in athletics among our youths has been lost. With all the distractions that kids have nowadays, such as video games, computers and iPods, the younger generation has been more inclined to sit down and punch keys or work a remote than dedicate themselves to a sport (or sports).
The decline in roster numbers and the empty fields and basketball courts on a daily basis has proven that some of that is true.
But the passion hasn't disappeared completely. There is still that urge to test one's strength to its physical and mental limits among some of our youths.
That was witnessed firsthand by yours truly at URI's Keaney Gymnasium on Saturday. In back-to-back volleyball state championship matches, four high school teams showed the true meaning of teamwork and the passion to excel, perhaps the most important benefit from athletics.
The afternoon began with Coventry barely holding off Ponaganset to capture the Division I crown. The Knotty Oakers dominated their rivals throughout the season, losing just three games out of 45 while posting a 14-0 record in I-South.
Except for the middle game, a 25-17 win by the Oakers, the other four games were close in Saturday's final. They were close because both teams refused to back down despite the pressure of winning on the sport's biggest stage.
Kudos to the Chieftains for never showing signs of weakness against the favored Oakers. I lost count how many times Ponaganset was able to return a smashing return by their opponent or came up with a key block. Ponaganset went in as a No. 3 seed from I-North and was attempting its second straight upset of the tourney. Just a few days earlier, the Chieftains shocked I-North's previously-unbeaten squad, Mount St. Charles Academy, 3-1.
"I am really proud of them and really proud of our program," said PHS coach Sue Stevens.
She should be. It was a heckuva match that kept the fans entertained from start to finish.
In the second match of the doubleheader, again it was the No. 1 seed that was able to come out on top as unbeaten Exeter/West Greenwich had to withstand a very-determined Cumberland squad, 3-2, to earn its second straight crown.
The intensity of the third-seeded Clippers in the match was nearly identical to that of the Chieftains. On paper, the Scarlet Knights were the overwhelming favorite. Prior to the tournament, no team in the league had taken them to the limit. On their way to a 14-0 mark in II-South, Exeter/West Greenwich lost just two games in 45 tries and had a dozen shutouts.
Cumberland had the Scarlet Knights against the ropes with an early 2-1 lead. Although it wasn't easy, Exeter/West Greenwich showed why its the best of the best by managing to eke out the victory, winning the last two games by a combined eight points.
"I didn't know a whole heck of a lot to expect, but that's a great team on the other side," said E/WG coach Josh Bednarczych. "They made us earn every point."
In 10-plus years of covering high school volleyball, these two matches rank at the top. Passion was certainly alive down in South Kingstown.
The victory by Mike Marsella of Chariho Regional at the New England Championships this past Saturday at Ponaganset continues a strong presence by R.I. runners at the regional meet. Marsella becomes the second straight champion and third in the last four years. In last year's event, former Cranston West all-stater Robert Allen captured the title and in 2009 East Greenwich's Mark Feigen was the first across the line. Feigen's win led a 1-2-3 finish by Rhody with Westerly great Andrew Springer taking second and E.G.'s Nick Ross finishing third.
The Ocean State has had only six other individual boys' winners in the 77-year history of the New England's. Those champions are Louis Lepry of La Salle (1946), John Murphy of Portsmouth Abbey (1975), Darren Rojas of Bishop Hendricken (1978), Mike Pieroni of Rogers (1984) and Wayne Newsom of Hope (1989).
The area has had a handful of top finishes. Cumberland's Daryl Simoneau was second in 1978 and third in 1979. The Clippers' Patrick Gillooly was third in 1981 and the Blue and White's Bob Carew (1982) and Brian Thibodeau (1983) were runner-up finishers the next two years. Former St. Raphael standout Chris Magill was the last local finisher in the top three, placing second in 1989.
In Saturday's race, Cumberland junior Trevor Crawley had the best placement among our local contingent. Crawley placed 57th in the field of 267 runners with a time of 16:46. He was the eighth R.I. finisher. Mount St. Charles junior Patrick Butler was 99th overall with a 17:09 clocking.
Other area finishers at the New England's were Cumberland's Matt Sutcliffe (149th, 17:29) and St. Raphael's Sam Reinhardt (192nd, 17:47).

You were born on Valentine's Day, which is so appropriate as you were so full of affection and unconditional love. Now our home is eerily silent, and our hearts are empty as we have let you go gracefully to be with your brothers Maverick and Monty.
It's been only 6 weeks since we lost your best buddy Monty, and we were so unprepared for you to go this soon. While we mourn your loss and grieve with so much sorrow, know that you filled our lives with so much happiness and we celebrate that with you today as you run forever in paradise now.
We clung to you so tightly after you slipped peacefully into a deep sleep and letting you go was the hardest thing we ever had to do. Rest assured that we will see you again one day and we will not forget you until that day comes. We miss you so much already Quincy, the pain is unbearable
Catching a glimpse of an Airbus A380

I had a chance to see an Airbus A380 last year when we were transiting through Frankfurt but unfortunately (and for whatever unknown reason I still can't understand) I did not manage to grab any photos.
The immense size of the aircraft boggles the mind, and all I can think of as I'm sure most people do, is wonder how such a massive piece of engineering marvel can actually get airborne. Yet it taxis into position and hurdles down the runway lifting off with such grace, its sheer size and weight seem to defy all logic. My only regret is not being able to board one and have a look around. I have seen an episode on Discovery Channel that highlights the construction and delivery of an A380 to a prospective client, and it's interesting to note that each one can be configured to the specifications of the airline, but then again, for just slightly under $500 million per unit, would you expect anything less !
This year once again we found ourselves back in Frankfurt with a six-hour layover – fortunately in the Maple Leaf lounge, and while enjoying the fruits of their offering, I happened to not one, but two A380′s up close and personal. As luck would have it, both of them were very close to the lounge we were seated in, and they were at the gate (not at the same time mind you), so I grabbed my 5D3 and snapped these two images along with a few others.

Today is a very difficult day in our little household as Lisa and I had to make the heart-wrenching and extremely painful decision to let one of our babies go. You filled our lives with wonderful memories and experiences for almost 15 years, and we will never forget you for the unconditional love you gave us.
From the moment we got you at the breeder, you had a mind of your own, and from what we were told about Ragdolls being generally quiet and passive, you certainly defied the stereotype. You were incredibly strong-willed and everything was on your own terms, but at the end of each day, we knew that you would be close to us with a gentle reminder that your need for attention was real. We miss you tremendously already Monty and the hurt is unbearable. RIP little man.

A few months ago we attended a presentation from Scenic Cruises which was presenting an overview of river cruising and itineraries for 2015. It was an impressive array of possible sailings, on a cruise line that we had seen in Europe when we did our first river cruise in Southern France last year, and we decided to book Scenic Opal and the Jewels of Europe 15-day sailing for September 2015 from Amsterdam to Budapest.
Why? Well, have a look at this, I think it pretty much sums up the choice

Baltic Rendezvous Voyage

Having just recently returned from a quick getaway to the Pacific coast of Mexico where we vacationed at Secrets Huatulco Resort & Spa, Lisa and I (along with Janice & Steve) somehow just didn't think we could survive the few months away from our safari adventure in South Africa, and so totally out of the blue an opportunity came up this week that was just to good for us to pass up.
Here is a map showing the various ports that we will be visiting.
So with that in mind, we were confirmed earlier this week on the Azamara Journey, a cruise line we have not yet sailed with but are very much looking forward to. This is a 10-day voyage on the Baltic Sea through some Scandinavian countries, Western Russia and specifically St. Petersburg which just happened to be the primary driver for our decision to do this sailing, and then two ports in northern Germany. What was really intriguing is that our stop in St. Petersburg is actually for 3 days, which we have never seen before on any cruise we have taken to date but it speaks to the significance of this city and the vast number of things for us to see and do.
Now comes the difficult part, locking down on some tours for each port which will no doubt prove to be a challenge given the late stage we are at before we sail. But that's part of the excitement, doing the research and finding the right opportunities. I know this, we are both visiting places we have never been to and that alone is well worth the planning effort it will take in the short window of time we have to get everything done.
Secrets Huatulco Resort & Spa

In late March Lisa and I (along with my brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Janice & Steve) traveled to the southern part of the pacific coast of Mexico to the sleepy little resort town of Huatulco. We stayed at the all-inclusive Secrets Resort & Spa, an adults only property that was very favourably rated based on the research we did, and having never been to this destination in Mexico (hard to believe considering the number of times we have been in this country) we thought it would be a great way to break up the wait time for our ultimate adventure to South Africa coming up in September 2014.
The week was a big success, on many fronts including the weather which was extremely hot (averaging around 34C every day), the property, the extremely accommodating staff, and the food which did not disappoint.
I will post a complete review of our stay at this property, including some highlights of our half day trip into the town of La Crucecita (spanish for Little Cross).

Lost and Found (or is it simply just forgotten) Photography
- At January 27, 2014
- By Mike
- In Photography, Travel

For all those that know I'm a passionate photographer that perhaps in another lifetime may have been my first calling, I do happen to follow a number of very respected industry experts in this field that I have learned an incredible amount of tips and tricks over the years for which I am truly grateful. In fact, that's one of the things that I truly love about photography – it's not what the final image will look like, but rather how absolutely forthcoming virtually every photographer that I ever reached out to is and the willingness on their behalf to "share the knowledge".
I recently came across a post from one such individual (Matt Kloskowski – aka The Photoshop Guy) when he posted an article that made me go "hmmmm" ! So after reading it, I had one of those 'ah-ha' moments, that lead me to this post today, plagiarizing some of his thoughts at the same time – forgive me Matt, for I have sinned !
This happens to me all the time and I think I'm going to start posting more of the photos here. When we go away on a trip I take hundreds, if not thousands of photos. But after the photo shoot, you always kinda know which ones are your favourites and you immediately go process them. Then life gets in the way and you forget to go through all of the other photos that didn't make that first cut.
So here's one of those that fell into that category, and I really like the outcome for something I just skimmed over the first time around It's a shot taken while we were visiting in the Beaune and Dijon, France region and I really love the architecture and preservation of these little towns and villages that take you back to another era in time.

Numerical linear algebra (NLA) is no longer merely a subtopic of linear algebra or of numerical analysis. In recent years, NLA has become an independent subject for research and teaching and its techniques are important components of scientific computing.
Datta's book is primarily intended for a first course in NLA for students in mathematics, computer science, and engineering at the advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate levels. It is also described as suitable for self-study and for use as a reference by scientists and engineers.
In terms of content, there is a slightly reworked treatment of the quadratic eigenvalue problem (including the Jacobi-Davidson method) and what Nicholas Higham (Siam Review 41 (1999), p. 608) has called "the best textbook presentation of the generalized eigenvalue problem that I have seen." The new edition has a separate chapter on iterative methods, emphasizing the development of major Krylov-subspace methods for the solution of linear systems. The Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is defined early (Chapter 2) and is given a full treatment in Chapter 7. SVD applications to image processing have been added to the interesting applications appearing in the first edition.
The second edition of this book preserves and enhances the pedagogical strengths of the first edition. The text is very readable. There are end-of-chapter summaries, suggestions for further reading, a MATLAB-based toolkit, and a list of key terms. The second edition contains many more pictures and figures; and there are footnotes offering brief biographical sketches of (deceased) prominent practitioners of NLA: Gauss, Hessenberg, Cholesky, Golub, Givens…
This is a second edition that shows care in its preparation. The attractive features of the first edition have been enhanced and minor criticisms have been addressed. Anyone teaching a course in NLA should consider this as both a text and a reference.
Henry Ricardo (email@example.com) has retired from Medgar Evers College (CUNY), but continues to serve as Governor of the Metropolitan NY Section of the MAA. He is the author of A Modern Introduction to Differential Equations (Second Edition). His linear algebra text was published in October 2009 by CRC Press.

With Barnet and Hereford both winning, the Silkmen pressed forward in the second half and were caught on the break when Jacques Maghoma stroked home form 12 yards. Deep in injury time, with a minority of home fans screaming abuse at the board, the game was sealed when Calvin Zola fired in the second.
"Look at teams like Aston Villa. They had to sell Young and Downing and they have struggled this year. Even clubs in the Premier League have to sell to make ends meet and that's just what Macclesfield had to do," said the veteran boss after failing to orchestrate a great escape for a second time for the Silkmen.
He added: "I came here with the brief to keep them up in nine games, I did before but I couldn't do it this time. Ask me why; it's down to injuries and confidence. The team had been decimated by injuries and if you go without a win for 23 games, you are low on confidence."
Horton, who said that he doubted that he would be involved in non-league football next year with Macclesfield, added: "We had chances again today, great chances, but that is why you have to pay money for finishers. They make the difference and that's why they cost so much.
"You know we only took the lead once while I have been here and then against Crewe we conceded quickly afterwards. The trouble is when you are down on confidence, your heads drop and you just can't respond. Again we started well today and had chances from set plays, but if you don't take your chances, you will pay for it."

Loretta R. Quattrone, age 79, of 222 Spruce St., Ridgway, died early Friday morning, Feb. 17, 2012, at Elk Haven Nursing Home following a lengthy illness.
She was born Nov. 27, 1932, in Ridgway, daughter of the late Clifford and Frances (Unick) Emmett. She married Joseph Quattrone on June 11, 1949; he survives.
The Ridgway YMCA will again rely on donations for this year's "Sustaining Campaign" in an effort to continue to provide various programs and sustain the popular North Broad Street location in downtown Ridgway.
"Our small town YMCA offers as many programs as larger YMCAs at the fraction of the cost and we are able to do this with the help of this campaign," said Mary Lynne Bellotti, executive director of the Ridgway YMCA. "Our YMCA is a unique little YMCA-- we take pride in being able to offer something for everyone."
At the Elk County Courthouse in Ridgway on Thursday, Jonathan Joseph Bilodeau, 20, of St. Marys, was sentenced for the offense of sexual abuse of children, a felony of the third degree.
Bilodeau pleaded guilty in August to the charge, which stems from a July 22, 2010 incident in which Bilodeau distributed child pornography to a Pennsylvania State Trooper via a peer-to-peer file-sharing program on his laptop computer. The file contained a one-minute, 31-second video of a child under the age of 18 years old engaging in a sexual act.
ST. MARYS – Some people really are out for your blood - but that's not always a bad thing. Just ask Wendy McCoy, a phlebotomist at Elk Regional Health Center since June 2011.
McCoy, a 1986 graduate of Ridgway Area High School, moved back to the area from Kitanning about two years ago and works part-time at ERHC.
Phlebotomists draw blood from a patient's veins to collect samples for testing. McCoy said "phlebotomist" comes from the Greek word "phlebos," which means "vein."
"It basically means specializing in veins," McCoy said.

"The Woman in the Window," DVD, Black and White, 107 minutes, 1944, directed by Fritz Lang and starring Edward G. Robinson, Joan Bennett, and Raymond Massey.
May 12, 2013
Program Locations:
It begins with an innocent flirtation—a chance meeting with the subject of an alluring painting--and leads to blackmail and murder. Edward G. Robinson is the innocent victim, and Fritz Lang is the director who so deftly spins the web in which the star becomes entrapped. This gripping film concludes with an astounding surprise ending.

All Is WellWednesday, August 12th, 2009
No matter how "bad" things seem to you, or to someone else looking at your situation, you have a choice. You can choose to accept the situation and find a positive perspective, or you can choose to look at the situation as awful. Regardless of what you choose, you are right!
Here it is perfectly said by Ester & Jerry Hicks:
Nothing needs to be fixed. Everything is unfolding perfectly. So when you stand in your now accepting that all is well, then from that vibration, you become surrounded by more and more evidence that all is well. But when you're convinced that things are broken, that there is pollution, or that things have gone wrong, or that the government is doing conspiracies… then what happens is you get caught up in that vibration, and you begin to manifest that kind of stuff, and then you say, "See, I told you that things were going wrong."
— Abraham (this excerpt was taken from a workshop they did in LA in March of 2000)
I choose wellness. What do you choose?

Last week the administrator of the Farm Service Agency that's part of the USDA was in town to meet with local ag producers to discuss the new Farm Bill currently being debated in Washington.
The Farm Service Agency (FSA) administers farm commodity, crop insurance, credit, environmental, conservation, and emergency assistance programs for farmers and ranchers.
"The situation is, leading on to this, is a drought situation throughout the country, and this is the worst drought in a long time, as y'all had last year, in 2011 here in Texas it was pretty rough, and being in Texas, I know we had a rough drought in '08, had a rough drought in '09, it continued on into '09, 10 was better, and the 11 came along."
Juan Garcia is director of the Farm Service Agency and says that not long ago areas of the Midwest began to panic because it started getting dry.
"I really wasn't panicking and finally realized, wait a minute, Midwest, I mean that's the bread basket, that's the major corn belt. When you have Ohio, Indiana, and then Iowa getting into abnormally dry conditions, it's pretty serious. They're not used to that. We're pulling all the tools out of our tool box to see what we can do with USDA because as I mentioned, our disaster programs that were approved in '08 have expired."
The drought has fueled the debate in Congress on whether or not to extend the 2008 farm bill that expires September 30th and press ahead for immediate help for drought stricken farmers, or continue to work to pass a new Farm Bill. There are things that are included both the Senate and House bills.
"Both sides have these livestock programs in their bill. The livestock forage program which helps producers when you have losses in forage like drought situations. The House and the Senate are going to have to get together and work out these major differences in their program, and that's where the committees will conference and see what they can get done."

The Great War and Its Legacy, 100 Years Later
In partnership with the Harry Ransom Center, Views and Brews discussed the recent exhibition "The World at War, 1914–1918." The exhibit marks the centenary of the start of World War I, and seeks to recover the deeply personal experience of the war.
Listen back as Rabbi Neil Blumofe and Ransom Center curators Elizabeth Garver and Jean Cannon join KUT's Rebecca McInroy to explore the layered causes, complicated effects and penetrating propaganda of a war that forever changed our relationship to grief, industry, faith and one another.

I have in my possession a B&W PowerMac G3 tower that is the educational AV edition that includes the Xclaim VR Pro PCI graphics card/capture card. It works only under OS9 and using Apple Video Player application. When I am done recording via either the Svideo or Composite ports (the only input ports on it), it encodes super slow, as it is a G3 at 350MHZ. This is just background information to what I need help with.
Anyway, I also own a PowerMac G4 MDD dual 1.0GHZ that runs OS 9.2.2 and 10.4.11 on separate hard drives. I wanted to speed up the video capture so I popped the Xclaim VR Pro into the top PCI slot of my MDD and removed the current Radeon 9000 Pro in the AGP slot (only when recording). I installed the latest ATI drivers for both cards here: Gona
So the the video capture works fine, but my main problem here is that I can't keep the audio input to stay on Line In, so it records sound. I can click Line In, but as soon as I let go of the mouse, it reverts back to None. Very frustrating. I would use the Apple Video Player application if I had it, but aperantly MDD's version of OS 9.2.2 does not include it. Can someone help me please? I appreciate any input on this matter. Please do not suggest that I buy a new Mac or a different capture device, as I am not looking to do that if I dont have to. Thank you.

Many PPC users here at the forums. Why not re-install the 9000 Pro card in position one and XClaim in another slot and see if that brings any joy?
Hang on to those original install discs like grim death! Using OS X.7 or later make a bootable USB thumb drive before running Installer!

There's a popular saying in football circles: 'never look past your next game'. But apparently this old bit of wisdom has not yet made its way down to the South Seas as New Zealand's Auckland FC - who are set to line up as Oceania's representatives at the 2006 FIFA Club World Cup in Japan this December - are already setting their sights on qualification for the 2007 showpiece.
Only AS Magenta of New Caledonia and Vanuatu's Port Vila stand between the New Zealanders, in qualifying Group A, and a place in the Oceania (OFC) Champions League final next April. The winner of the Oceania showdown will go on to represent the confederation at the 2007 instalment of the FIFA Club World Cup.
OFC Group B will be comprised of Marist FC of the Solomon Islands, Fiji's Ba club and Manava of Tahiti.
Mighty Auckland are considered favourites to take the laurels in Group A, which will consist of home/away series in January, February and March. The winners of each group will then battle it out for the Champions League title and a spot at the 2007 FIFA Club World Cup.
The New Zealand outfit will be fancying their chances after finishing top of the heap in the last OFC Club Championship back in May.
Tight schedule
Coach Roger Wilkinson will be in a tough spot as the qualifiers for the 2007 event and the 2006 FIFA Club World Cup will come in a tense two months in December and January, when the domestic championship is in full swing.
"We're aware of our Champions League opposition now and the boys have experience at this level but it's different from a tournament which will present different types of problems," Wilkinson, who is getting set for the season opener on 14 October, told nzsoccer.com "We've got to be very professional in the way we approach it."
The coach is also keen not to take his island opposition lightly, even after breezing through the regional championship last May.
"We know the level of play has improved in the islands, particularly in the Solomon Islands, and of course Tahiti have always had a strong soccer culture," Wilkinson said. "We can't take anyone lightly because each of the new clubs will present new problems. We have to do our homework but just as important is the way we play…we've got to be strong and effective."
The exact dates of the home/away OFC Champions League series have yet to be finalised, but are expected to take place in the third weeks of January, February, March and April.

text: As someone who has scouted, worked with and helped develop NHL prospects the past 13 years, I can tell you that the only certainty when it comes to projecting future success is this: There is no certainty. That's why I felt pretty good that seven of my Top 10 Prospects from 2011 not only graduated to the "bigs" but had solid debut seasons in the NHL. At least two of the three who didn't reach the league last season -- Mikael Granlund and Vladimir Tarasenko -- almost certainly will do so when the NHL resumes play.

Silverlight is not the only possibility to create software for Windows Phone 7 devices, there's also XNA. Peter Kuhn has authored a series of articles to give a comprehensive insight into XNA on the mobile platform for Silverlight developers who have not dealt with XNA in detail before.
The series explains the possibilities of interaction between Silverlight and XNA, and why you as a Silverlight developer should care about XNA even if you don't want to develop games. In successive parts of this series, Peter goes into the details of programming 2D games for Windows Phone 7 using XNA, with special focus on those parts that require a change of thinking when you are coming from a Silverlight background.
- Part 0 – Why should I care?
- Part 1 – Fundamentals
- Part 2 – Text rendering
