WARRENSBURG For two generations, the Smoke Eaters' Jamboree has been annually anticipated with enthusiasm by both children and adults in the North Country.
The Jamboree, a combination of a carnival and old-time country fair, is celebrating its 50th anniversary this weekend. The primary fundraiser for the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co., the fest features carnival rides, a midway, an auction, top-name entertainment, a barbecue, fireworks and games of chance.
The event will be held this year Friday July 27 and Saturday July 28 at the Warrensburg Recreation Field on Library Ave.
The renowned rock 'n roll band "The AudioStars" are booked again this year for Saturday beginning at 7 p.m., and they're expected to draw a substantial crowd.
The gates open at 6 p.m. Friday. While youth enjoy the midway and various games, adults can cast bids beginning at 6:30 p.m. in an auction of new and used goods and services donated by area businesses and residents. For decades, Jim Galusha of Thurman has served as auctioneer.
The Jamboree's continued success is because it offers such a wide variety of activities for people of all ages, fire company President Kevin Geraghty said this week.
The adults annually enjoy the fun of placing bets on the roulette-style money wheels, attempting to multiply their handfuls of cash, or they test their skill and luck at the blackjack tables. Children traditionally amuse themselves with carnival rides and a midway. There's an entrance donation of $5 per person on Saturday and $3 on Friday.
Saturday, gates open at 5 p.m. as the Warrensburg firefighters grill up their famous chicken barbecue. Appearing for the children — before the AudioStars start their show — will be Freckles the Clown and magician Merdwin the Mediocre. Saturday's events include fireworks at dusk. Entertainment for youth this second night includes clowns Roscoe and Rowdy.

Rain in Texas Cancels Willamette Women's Tennis Match at Mary Hardin-Baylor
BELTON, TEXAS -- It's often a race against the weather for college sporting events throughout the nation this time of year. Such was the case for the Willamette University women's tennis team on Wednesday, March 28, as the Bearcats' match against the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor was initially delayed, and eventually canceled, due to rain in Belton, Texas.
The West Region match-up between the Bearcats (#13 in the Region) and the Crusaders (#15) was slated to complete Willamette's Spring Break trip to the Lone Star State. Instead, the Bearcats will return to Salem, Ore., having played two of the three matches originally scheduled for the trip.
Willamette, 5-6 on the season and 3-4 in the Northwest Conference, will return to action on Saturday, March 31 with a home match against Pacific University at the WU Tennis Courts. Match time is set for 1 p.m. (PDT). The Bearcat will be looking to even up the season series after losing a close match to the Boxers, 5-4, in Forest Grove, Ore., on Feb. 25.

Wild Country Tadpole 10mm & 12mm Dyneema Express Slingsadded Jul/2007, see all Wild Country news & reviews
announcement by Wild Country
In store, on the shelf and in stock at Wild Country are the all new 10mm and 12mm Express dyneema slings and all with the fantastic new 'Tadpole'.
And in case you're wondering, the Tadpole is Wild Country's name for our wonderful new sewn in rubber ring that holds the bottom biner on a quickdraw in place.
The Tadpole is sewn into the quickdraw sling during construction and is better than ever at keeping the bottom biner aligned correctly, so that when you come to clip it, on redpoint or trad, it hasn't moved round making your clip too awkward or even dangerous.
And to fit the Tadpole into our quickdraw slings all Wild Country 10cm 15cm and 20cm slings are now sewn through express slings, with a triple stiched layer of material in the centre. And while the bootom loop contains the Tadpole, the top loop of these slings is left open to allow you to re-orientate the biner there for safer climbing.
And for 2007~8 season Wild Country will be selling these slings separately, so if you want to update your rack with Tadpoles, you can!
And best of all the Tadpole comes at no extra cost on any of our slings....

AMD: NVIDIA's CUDA and PhysX are 'doomed'
According to AMD's Vice President of Channel Sales, Roy Taylor, NVIDIA's CUDA and PhysX platforms are an utter failure. How does he get to that conclusion? Because the industry doesn't like proprietary standards.
Taylor continued: "NVIDIA should be congratulated for its invention. As a trend, GPGPU is absolutely fantastic and fabulous. But that was then, this is now. Now, collectively our industry doesn't want a proprietary standard. That's why people are migrating to OpenCL." The AMD VP says that Intel will continue adding more GPU to their die.
Taylor said that with Intel's Sandy Bridge platform, 17% of the die was GPU. Ivy Bridge notched that up to 27%, and Haswell sees 32% of its die reserved for GPU silicon. He thinks that Intel will eventually use the term APU, but not for a little while yet. He adds: "We think the reason they're doing that is because of GPGPU. It's not because of games. I think they see that HSA is an absolutely unstoppable force. I just don't know why they don't call [Haswell] an APU... it seems just like pride. If you remember [ATI] tried to join the coin term VPU... 'No, no, no, it's a VPU not a GPU,' they would say. GPU just became widely adopted they just quietly adopted it, and I believe Intel will do the same. Look [Intel] it's an APU, why are you protesting?"

AMD release Catalyst 13.8 Beta drivers, fixes frame latency issues
AMD have been promising a huge driver update for a little while now, and before we receive this new wonder driver, AMD have released the Catalyst 13.8 Beta drivers.
The new AMD Catalyst 13.8 Beta drivers fix the frame latency issues that are apparent on Graphics CoreNext (GCN) GPUs, meaning micro-stuttering issues with CrossFire configurations should see some big improvements. The driver also includes a fix that ensures frames generated by member GPUs of a CrossFire configuration are displayed in an even and regular pace.
AMD have also provided full support for the OpenGL 4.3 API in the latest Catalyst 13.8 Beta drivers. Once you've downloaded them, you can create application profiles within Catalyst Control Center for OpenGL applications, with CAP updates now pushed out for such apps.
Spotify joins forces with Official Comedy for the good of comedy
Spotify are now working with YouTube channel Official Comedy, where they've launched an app that collects content into a large comedy audio library for your pleasure.
The new app features stand-up specials from comedians like Jerry Seinfeld, Aziz Ansari, Louis C.K., Mike Birbiglia, George Carlin, Margaret Cho and Kevin. I didn't know who or what Official Comedy was until today, but they're a division of new media and entertainment company Bedrocket Media Ventures. Spotify's Chief Content Officer, Ken Parks, said in a statement: "The Official Comedy app on Spotify gives our users access to a customized comedy experience that is just as extensive as our music experience."
Spotify's new comedy-themed app is curated and edited by Official Comedy, who provide playlists that are based on specific themes. The app will also be updated regularly and will feature new comedians and playlists. Upon launch of the new Spotify app, there are a bunch of other comedians included: Hannibal Buress, Bill Cosby, Ellen DeGeneres, Jim Gaffigan, Artie Lange, Steve Martin, Patton Oswalt, Monty Python, Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman and Daniel Tosh.
Apple updates Final Cut Pro X to 10.0.9
Today, Apple began pushing out an update that will bring its Final Cut Pro X software up to version 10.0.9. The new update addresses several issues that result in green artifacts when using Sony XAVC media and issues related to interlaced media and retimed segments that have been causing exports to fail.
Also included in the update are several unnamed stability fixes which we can assume fix issues with other file formats. The update is significant at 1.64GB and can be downloaded via the software's built in update tool. This is the first update since 10.0.8 which was released back in March and included several feature enhancements in a move to hopefully lure back many of the pros that jumped ship to Adobe's Premiere Pro when Final Cut Pro 10 was released.

ASUS ROG unveils RAIDR Express PCIe-based SSD
Today, ASUS ROG launched the first PCIe-based SSD in the world that works with either Legacy or Modern UEFI BIOS. The RAIDR Express is geared towards hardcore gamers and PC enthusiasts who demand nothing but the best performance possible for their PC. ASUS says that the new PCIe-based SSD combines the best compatibility with incredible performance and durability.
We have seen many other PCIe-based SSDs, but what makes the RAIDR Express so unique is a hardware switch that allows users to switch to either Legacy BIOS or use the more modern UEFI BIOS that is found on more modern high-end motherboards. The switching is made possible because ASUS has included dual BIOS chips on the board, something that has never been done in the SSD world until now.
The RAIDR Express features the latest-generation dual LSI SandForce controller, Toshiba-made 19nm 16K-page size multi-level cell (MLC) sync-NAND flash, 100,000 4K read/write input/output operations per second (IOPS), and 830/810 MB/s sequential read/write speeds, meaning RAIDR Express truly lives up to its name.

MulticoreWare releases its x265 project into the open source universe
It is safe to bet that any video professional, enthusiast, or even home theater junkie has heard of and most certainly used the H.264 codec which has become the de facto standard for compressing high-definition video. H.264 uses very complicated algorithms that help accelerate the decoding process, which in turn reduces energy consumption and allows for higher bit rates. Yesterday, we participated in a briefing on the new X265 and HEVC encoder project that is being tackled by a company called MulticoreWare.
The X264 encoder remains one of the leading H.264 encoders on the market and it resides under both the open source GNU GPL license as well as a commercial license which is designed for companies that wish to inject their own proprietary code without having to release it into the open source community. With Ultra HD Video beginning to flow in, H.264 was just not delivering the performance needed for high bit rate, high quality output. This is where H.265 comes in the play along with MulticoreWare.
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), aka H.265, is being designed to replace H.264 and the official standard was released just over a month ago. And today, MulticoreWare announced its commercial open source project around the x265 encoder. The company has released the source code for x265 and it is available for download at Source #1 below. The x265 encoder is already highly parallel and supports all of the big instruction sets including FMA3/FMA4, AVX, and AVX2.

Piriform issues an update to its popular defragmentation program Defraggler
Today, Piriform released an update to its popular defragmentation software Defraggler. The company says that this release optimizes the Analyze and the Defrag functions across all operating systems and it contains an improved context menu to better aid in serving up defrag options.
Additionally, the company has added file type and last modified date columns to the file list as well as added progress information to boot time defrag processes. Furthermore, they have improved handling of locked and read-only drives as well as improved the management of unmounted drives. Finally, additional improvements have been made to the GUI and several bugs have been fixed.
RumorTT: Adblock have been getting paid to push ads in consumers' faces with Adblock Plus
In news that isn't so surprising, Adblock have reportedly been receiving money to display ads to their paying customers through Adblock Plus. The news is coming from Hacker News, which states that Adblock Plus has an "acceptable ads" filter that allows certain content through by default.
Adblock has big companies paying for this, with the company stating that this fee is to help maintain their filter lists, which whitelists some small websites and blogs for free. But, it will charge larger companies like Google to do as they wish. This allows companies the size of Google to pay to have their ads in front of people who paid to not see ads at all.
Will this result in a company coming out and making software that completely kills ads? I think not, because ads are what makes the Internet go round, just like oil does for the world.

This is just proof this guy is full of crap. If a source inside the NCAA told him of the "bag man" then why the hell does the NCAA need to talk to him?
from Alwsw123 "Truly forgetting that others are just not "wired" the same way and seem to think success is measured..."
Truer words have never been spoken.
So based on your previous post since they have the states name they are premier schools...that makes LA Tech and La Monroe powerhouse programs. HaHa.... however you did have The University of California in that list... scratching my head on that.
But the problem is that as long as they get 6 full pages of comments they see it as a good thing and will continue to print this crap. Until people quit being so juvenile and posting crap to crap then it's never going to stop.
"You barners try to hype a team with new players into something great without playing a game. This season will bring some reality into your life."
You say this basically implying that Auburn's gonna be terrible with new players without playing a game. Kinda ironic, don't you think.

thats the only one i could find and you didn't specify that part lol

Over the last few days Kouandjio turned to his fan support on Facebook to help guide him in the right direction said Jean-Claude.
"So, now where do you turn to? He turned to Facebook. He had about 3,500 messages in two days. So it was overwhelming. He told me today you know what, "even though I wasn't sure, I got my fans to help me make my choice. The decision of people who want me to go to Alabama is overwhelming."
Didn't an NC State student get in trouble for using a facebook page to try and get a recruit to come there a few years back?
Bob Stoops will be the next coach at Florida!!! The End
Look it up bud, you say they knew before he stepped foot in Tuscaloosa, I say B.S.
I would like to correct myself... I apparently jumped the gun on that one and in the event of a 3 way they go to BCS rankings meaning Bama just may get the nod if Auburn loses to Ga and Bama and if Lsu loses on more to Ark along with bama beating Miss St. But that remains to be seen. Sorry for the mistake.
While I may be the only one who thinks so, Bama still has a remoe chance of defending its NC. See, they don't make that decision until all the chips have fallen. If Auburn and LSU lose their remaining SEC games and Bama wins out we're in Atlanta. Each team ahead of Bama in the BCS rankings plays a team that can beat them. Bama's strength of schedule finally kicks in but they have to win, not play flag football like they did in BR.
That scenario wouldn't automatically put Bama in the SEC title game... if it were to happen like that Bama, LSU and Auburn would each have 2 losses making a 3 way tie in which the AD's from the SEC would then vote on who would be the best representative for the SEC west so dont think Bama would get the vote
Nah a close game wouldn't cause AU to drop they took margin of victory out of the BCS formula therefore a close game wouldn't matter. Although I would rather see a blowout than a close game.
Funny, Alabama has been to the Liberty bowl twice as many times as Auburn.

Proposal for zoning overlay near Dyess on hold
Tens of thousands of people will pour into the gates at Dyess Air Force Base on Saturday for the Big Country Air Fest -- but what will they see before they get there?
In 2005 and 2006, Dyess planners were concerned about the appearance of future development in the area just outside the base, particularly when senior Air Force officials and other guests visit.
Dyess asked the city of Abilene to consider applying a zoning overlay to Rebecca Lane and Dub Wright and Arnold boulevards that would have had more stringent sign and landscaping standards, among other regulations. The only other thoroughfare in Abilene with a similar zoning overlay is Buffalo Gap Road south of Winters Freeway to the city limits.
Abilene's Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approving the measure, but the Abilene City Council turned it down in January 2006 with a 3-3 vote. Dyess had hoped council members would revisit it, but the issue hasn't surfaced again over the past two years.
Dyess and city of Abilene planners say they are still interested in applying zoning regulations to the area, but the issue has been pushed to the back burner for now.
"Originally, it was an initiative to ensure that the inevitable development around Dyess was aesthetically pleasing and to support the city's long term development plan," said Lt. Will Powell, deputy chief of public affairs for Dyess. "We do hope to revisit this initiative sometime in the future."
Since the zoning overlay was first discussed, the city has started requiring more landscaping and put in place greater limitations on billboards across the city, said Jon James, the city's director of planning and development services. The overlay zoning at Dyess has been put on hold while the city has worked on community appearance standards for the entire city, not just near Dyess.
"We will bring it back up at some point when the timing seems right based on other projects and priorities," James said.

The epic life story of the Atlantic Ocean from the bestselling author, Simon Winchester For thousands of years the Atlantic Ocean was viewed by mariners with a mixture of awe, terror and amazement -- an impassable barrier to the unknown. In recent times, as we fly high above it without so much as bothering to look down, this vast sea has been reduced to the status of a mere passageway between continents -- 'the pond'. It is easy to forget that the Atlantic has been the setting for some of the most important exchanges, ideas and challenges in the history of civilisation -- a fulcrum around which the power and influence of the modern world has long been distributed. In this narrative tour de force, Simon Winchester dramatises the life story of the Atlantic, from its birth in the farther recesses of geological time to its eventual extinction millions of years in the future. At the heart of the book is the story of humankind's evolving attitude to and relationship with the ocean. For millennia it has shaped the lives and cultures of those who have lived along its shores and have navigated its waters.Travelling around its edges and across its huge expanse, Winchester reports from the places that encapsulate the Atlantic's most fascinating stories -- the age of exploration and the colonisation of the Americas; the rise and fall of the slave trade, and the flourishing of transatlantic commerce; extraordinary tales of sea-borne emigration; and the great naval battles that have left an indelible imprint on Atlantic history. The result is an utterly enthralling mixture of history, science and reportage from a master of narrative non-fiction, and an exhilarating account of a magnificent body of water.

After leading throughout in its home finale, UK surrendered two runs in the top of the inning as No. 15 Indiana took a 3-2 lead. But before the Cats could even ask themselves the question of whether they would respond, Micheal Thomas led off the home half by putting a charge into an 0-1 pitch.
"Micheal came up and ran that ball out of the yard and got everybody excited," UK head coach Gary Henderson said. "Now you're tied, you've got the right part of the lineup coming up."
Thomas drove Luke Harrison's pitch over the wall in left field, changing the dynamic all over again. Matt Reida singled next and Zach Storm bunted him to second. Leadoff man Kyle Barrett followed with a walk before Zac Zellers flew out, setting up A.J. Reed - who had already homered on the evening - for a two-out at-bat with a pair of runners on.
Reed delivered a single and the go-ahead run. An inning later, Reida added an insurance run with a single that scored Austin Cousino, giving the Cats a 5-3 lead that would be more than enough for their star closer. Trevor Gott struck out two of the three batters he faced en route to his 12th save and UK (29-22) picked up an important win with just three regular-season games remaining.
"This was definitely a huge game for us for our regional purposes," Reed said. "Them being 15th in the country, that win on paper looks really good for us. So I think this really increases our chances of getting into a regional and we gotta go take care of business in Missouri."
Reed opined that UK needs two wins in Columbia, Mo., to ensure its place in the NCAA Tournament while some experts say a sweep is needed, but the Cats aren't spending an inordinate amount of time thinking about all that.
"Our coaches try not to talk about it a lot because they want us to just go out there and relax," Reed said. "But we know what we need to do so we just do our best to go out here and take care of business."
A victory over a team leading the Big Ten is certainly a plus for a team looking to solidify its tourney resume, but the confidence built through earning it could be even more important.
Indiana came in ranked seventh nationally in earned-run average, but the Cats pounded out 10 hits and those two home runs. The performance comes on the heels of a weekend during which UK didn't pick up a win, but did pound out a pair of double-digit hit games.
"We started off really well at the beginning of the year and then when conference started we kind started dropping off a little bit and then we faced the two best pitching staffs in the country two weeks in a row with Arkansas and Vandy," Reed said. "We outhit the expectations of those two pitching staffs. So we're putting really good at-bats together, I think our hitters are starting to get confidence and it should be a really good weekend for us in Missouri."
The confidence is translating into a better approach at the plate.
"It's aggressive," Henderson said. "You guys see it. The body language is different. The presence is different."
That goes for the pitcher who started for UK on Tuesday as well.
For the second Tuesday in a row, Jerad Grundy excelled as UK's midweek starter. The win escaped him, but he allowed just one run over six innings and Henderson said the senior lefthander was in "complete control" outside of a Dustin DeMuth home run.
"It was huge for my confidence tonight to come out and have success again the second week in a row," Grundy said.
In all likelihood, Grundy will be an observer only this weekend in anticipation of next week's Southeastern Conference Tournament. But if his teammates can replicate the approach they all took on Tuesday, it will serve them well against Missouri.
"The only thing I told them is they need to go down there with the expectation that they need to take the wins," Henderson said. "You can't go down hoping. I don't know that we've done a lot of hoping this year. We certainly haven't played up to our expectations at times, but we need to go down with the right attitude."

Will definitely make this again! The flavor of the sumac rub would stand on its own, but the pomegranate sauce takes it to another level. I used pomegranate juice that I purchased at a middle eastern grocery store. No changes to recipe except only whisked in 1 TB butter to the finished sauce. To those of you who are new to Sumac this is a wonderful seasoning to sprinkle over ANY vegetable. First tasted sumac in Turkey and fell in love with its flavor -- I sprinkle it over pretty much every vegetable.flag if inappropriate
Absolutely delicious. Entire family, including 5 year old, RAVED. Made it almost exactly as written, only omitting the last two tablespoons of butter at the end because the sauce looked so good as it was I felt I could leave it out without sacrificing any flavor. Used POM pomegranate juice, and it boiled right down into a beautiful syrup in 20 minutes. Served it with Seeds of Change Organic Dharamsala rice blend (ready made in a pouch, couldn't be easier or more delicious) and a quick salad of figs, avocado, and sliced almonds over spinach drizzled with a bottled balsamic reduction. Whole thing took maybe 45 minutes. Tasted out of this world.flag if inappropriate
This was easy to make and delicious. Living in Israel, all the ingredients are handy - skirt steak is the hardest thing to find! And a friend just brought me whole fresh sumac from Istanbul. The port-pomegranate sauce/reduction is out of this world. I was literally licking my plate. I served with a simple side of thinly sliced zucchini sauteed in butter and garlic.flag if inappropriate
Use pomegranate syrup available at middle eastern stores and there is no need to reduce or add sugar. I served this with roasted brussel sprouts with pine nuts and roasted sweet potatos. Great sweet/savory meal and healthy!flag if inappropriate
Simple, low effort, and delicious. I will definitely make this again! I followed the recipe exactly, using ruby port, but next time I may try the pomegranate molasses that others suggested since it would significantly shorten the time-to-table.flag if inappropriate
Absolutely delicious and unique flavor. Preferred the reduction to the molasses. I double recipe to have leftovers as once is never enough with this dish....flag if inappropriate
I live in Istanbul and we have an abundance of all the ingredients. Unfortunately my dish was not a success. Im thinking our pomegranate juice here is not the typically sweet juice found in the States. We have a pomegranate molasses but that is very tart. I doubt it would give the same effect. Any suggestions?flag if inappropriate
I made this for valentines day and it was OUTSTANDING! Absolutely delicious recipe, we loved it! Made the house smell delicious and the taste was out of this world! This is a winner! WOW! A+!flag if inappropriate
I used the pomegranate molasses, and it's a surprisingly tart sauce. For us, the saving grace was using the meat juices in the sauce. That seemed to temper it. Served w/couscous. Have mixed feelings about the level of butter--w/o adding meat juices, it's too much butter. But again, the juice made the difference.flag if inappropriate
Everyone once in a while a recipe is everything you wish for......this is one. Find a Mid-Eastern grocery store that carries Sumac and make this. It made enough for 6 - I ate half in one sitting!!!! There are so many flavors competing for recognition it is difficult to quit eating. It will be interesting if the taste is still there in left overs. DO NOT pass this recipe up!flag if inappropriate

|Carlson Paving Showcases the CP-90
Dealer and Customer Showcase the Carlson CP-90
Road construction company paves a co-op in half the time.
All in the Mix
HL-4 is used regularly by the MTO because it is flexible enough to serve as both a surface coarse and base coarse mix. HL-4 can be designed either as a 12.5 mm mix or a 19 mm Superpave mix. Under Superpave, the nominal maximum aggregate size of a mix is defined as one sieve larger than the first sieve to retain more than 10 percent aggregate by mass. The MTO developed a specification for a 16 mm Superpave gradation to better characterize HL-4, although Superpave does not have a 16 mm classification. The gradation tolerances for standard Ontario mixes such as HL-1, HL-3, HL-4, HL-8, and Heavy Duty Binder Coarse (HDBC) generally match the control points of the respective Superpave gradation classes.
about Carlson Paving products, just ask for the sales department:
Website: www.carlsonpavingproducts.com
JBEC had a mandate in 2009 to procure a commercial asphalt paver with highway class characteristics for its rental fleet and for specific contractors with high-paving volume in the commercial marketplace. JBEC 's rental fleet consists of specialty asphalt equipment. Through extensive research, JBEC decided to purchase a rebuildable paver with heavy duty wear components. The Carlson CP-90 met the criteria.
Heavy Duty Wear Components
"The screed is the most essential component on any asphalt paver," said Greg Johnstone of Johnstone Brothers Equipment Corp. in Brampton, Ontario, Canada. "We are well aware of Carlson's successful history in the screed market. Understandably, the Carlson CP-90 asphalt paver's heavy duty screed complements this powerful package nicely. The electric heated screed, powered by an onboard hydraulically driven generator, makes paving days a joy when the mercury dips."
The Carlson CP-90 asphalt paver has massive conveyor chains and auger segments. The four conveyor bearings and four auger bearings are able to be greased similar to any highway class paver. The proportional auger control gives the operators a helping hand. On all other similar-size commercial pavers, the augers fill up and then stop [the edge swells out]. As the pile height decreases, the edge shrinks. The result of the uneven edge is commonly attributed to the paver operator's inability to keep the paver straight. The proportional auger system on the CP-90 reduces this problem as the swelling and shrinking is controlled by the proportional augers.
Dealer Preference in Pavers
JBEC purchased their first CP-90 asphalt paver in May 2009. The success of this paver in its rental fleet demanded additions. In 2010, JBEC operated three rental Carlson CP-90 asphalt pavers. Similarly, JBEC placed other Carlson pavers in the marketplace with clientele searching for a long-lasting and rebuildable asphalt paver.
"Carlson's ability to listen and implement the paver users' concerns is tremendous and will set them apart for years to come," said Johnstone.
The Murray Group
When it comes to quality paving, The Murray Group Limited services Wellington County and surrounding areas of Southwestern Ontario, Canada. The company's asphalt paving crews handle Ministry of Transportation (MTO), municipal commercial, industrial, and residential projects.
The Murray Group purchased a Carlson CP-90 paver in 2010 and recently completed a co-op project in Drayton, Ontario.
"The co-op was completed in one day," said Fred Haug of The Murray Group. "It would have taken two days with our other paver."
Over Gravel in Two Lifts
The paving was completed over gravel in two lifts using two different blends of asphalt—270 tons (245 tonnes) of base (HL-8) and 245 tons (222 tonnes) of top coat (HL-4).
"We put down 2 inches (5 cm) of base coat and then put 1½ inches (3.8 cm) as top coat," said Haug. "The project called for a heavy duty asphalt to handle truck loads."
The Murray Group classifies the Carlson CP-90 as an "all-around good paver," and due to the equipment's controls and features, good quality paving is produced.
"We have been able to do more jobs and maintain a standard of quality unmatched by our other older paver," said Haug. "Our projects range from patching on roads, to driveways, parking lots, and streets."

OMA Alumni Reunion Honors Service, Legacy
Approximately 300 attendees, including 150 alumni, participated in this weekend's annual Oklahoma Military Academy Alumni Association on the Rogers State University campus.
OMA, which has been hailed as the West Point of the Southwest, operated on College Hill in Claremore from 1919 to 1971 before it transitioned into the university now known as RSU.
Of the attending 150 alumni, a full one-third was from states outside of Oklahoma. The alumni, their family and friends enjoyed a two-day reunion that included many social activities and an awards ceremony inducting two men into its Hall of Fame and three men into its ranks of Distinguished Alumni. RSU President Dr. Larry Rice also was recognized for his years of service to preserving the OMA legacy.
The theme of this year's reunion was "All Gave Some, Some Gave All" that honored the many OMA alumni who served the nation.
"We are proud to honor all those former cadets who served their country whether during war or peace," said Bill Ramsay, OMA Alumni Association president. "During these times, it is important to remember that freedom is not free. Many have sacrificed to keep our country great and strong, including those who gave the ultimate sacrifice and whose names are etched on the OMA Killed in Action Memorial on the RSU campus. On behalf of the OMA Alumni Association, it was our honor to recognize and remember all who served."
Twenty-six first-time attendees participated in the reunion activities, including David Stenhouse, class of '67, who provided the keynote address during the morning formation on Saturday morning. Stenhouse currently serves as Director of the Oklahoma Information Fusion Center, which collects, assesses, analyzes and disseminates information regarding terrorism and crime prevention.

The Last Kiss (Original vs. Remake)
Reviewer: James van Maanen
Rating (out of 5): ****
Moviegoers tempted to venture into a theatre to take a look at the Tony Goldwyn/Paul Haggis remake of The Last Kiss ought to be sure they see the original Italian version first. Superior in every way, this 2001 gem was writer/director Gabriele Muccino's international breakout, capturing better than most films (from any country) that scary period when men approaching thirty start settling into permanent relationships. We see this via the lives of four friends (and their women) in various states of pre- and post-marital bliss (or something less), as well as the parents of one of the women. The movie is by turns funny, surprising, moving and incisive, as it looks at relationships from many angles. It sees the reasons to hold on to what we have and build on it, but it also acknowledges how difficult this is, given our innate sense of selfishness and hypocrisy.
As a big fan of Goldwyn's initial directorial effort A Walk on the Moon, I admit to having high hopes and experiencing huge disappointment at the Last Kiss remake, due I suspect in no small measure to the work of screenwriter Haggis, whose Crash and Million Dollar Baby I did not like. His heavy hand is all over the Last Kiss remake, as it telescopes the original, giving us a kind of comic book synopsis of characters and events. The biggest difference is in the general sensibility - American as opposed to Italian. This makes itself felt in everything from cinematography - rich, brilliant colors (red, golds, greens) in the original; wan, tepid hues (blues, off-whites and every shade of grey imaginable) in the remake - to character: the Italians are involved, emotional and full of life; the Americans are mostly network television-level. Zach Braff in particular exudes at most a mild charm and even milder angst. If nothing much is at risk, who cares?
In the original, Stefano Accorsi (His Secret Life) brings heavy duty heat, sex appeal and intelligence to the role, and against the simply gorgeous, fiery Giovanna Mezzogiorno (Facing Windows), in the American version poor Jacinda Barrett blanches. Haggis rather slavishly follows the original screenplay, but gives less time and specificity to almost everything, and so characterization, particularly among the three male friends, is one-note. He turns the high school girl who has the short affair with the lead into a college student, thus softening the edges (and leaving out one wonderfully funny moment) and once the major crisis occurs, he simply has his hero curl up into a cute little puppy dog begging for forgiveness. The original takes things farther and deeper, ending with a paean to marital joy followed by a wordless finale that is believable, ironic, funny and sad. Blythe Danner, Tom Wilkinson and Harold Ramis do what they can with the older set but they are no match for Stefania Sandrelli, Luigi Diberti and (yes!) Sergio Castellitto. See the remake if you're so inclined, but for goodness sake, treat yourself to the original The Last Kiss.

Step 1: Get your papers in order
For this project you will need:
- Origami paper (5 sheets per flower)
- Green electrical tape
- Pipe cleaners
- Glue
Step 2: Start making that flower
And, sure, there are many steps to this simple flower, but by your 5th petal you'll have them memorized. Promise.
Start with your paper colored-side down.
Step 6:
Step 9: Glue into a petal
Simply apply a thin layer of glue to those two outer folds, and press them together. Hold for a bit, and voilà! You have one of your petals
Now, repeat 4 more times.
Step 10: Glue into a flower
Sit back and admire. (make a few more if you're feeling ambitious!)
These are so cute. I hot-glue a few to a piece of cardstock and gave it to my mom for mother's day. Thank you for the wonderful idea.
It was fun to make.
It was a fun craft! love the flowers :)

Help a Friend or Relative During Their Job Search
We've all had a friend or relative that either has been or is in a long job search currently — and it can be hard to watch them go through it. So, how can you lend a helping hand during a job search?
From emotional support to attending networking events with them, U.S. News and World Report's Career Advice Contributor, Alison Green, recently offered her advice on helping a job seeker during a long job search. Here were a few of her tips:
- Give them space.
Don't constantly asking for updates — it's overwhelming, not to mention frustrating. Being in a job search can be embarrassing and they don't want to repeat over and over why they don't have any progress to share, yet.
- Giving advice is great, but make sure not to over do it.
Yes, if you're employed, you may want to share your experiences of your personal job hunt. Keep in mind that not every job search is the same and they are a different person than you. If you do offer unsolicited career advice, don't take it personal if they don't accept your advice.
- Be their partner in crime.
It's tough to walk into a room of strangers, but having someone with you makes it easier. Plan a night where you will attend a networking event with them. Who know, maybe you'll make a professional connection there as well!
- Do something other then help them job search.
Just because your friend or relative is unemployed, doesn't mean they aren't working — a job search in of itself is a full time job. Just like you, they also need a break. Go out to coffee with them, watch a movie or maybe go for a walk. Taking some time to get their mind off job searching will be a huge help.

My once-loving son has turned into the Incredible Hulk. For the past couple of months. he freaks out, screaming, hitting, kicking — even spitting. These meltdowns occur daily and are almost predictable. Whenever it's time to change activities, he flips out.
Example 1. It's time to get dressed for school. His response? Flailing, scratching, screaming. It's impossible to pull a shirt over his head.
Example 2. It's time to get off the computer. He throws himself on the floor, kicking and thrashing.
Example 3. It's time for bed. Shouting, hitting, crying.
I'm at my wit's end. This boy is sullen, grumpy and mad. Not all the time, just when it's time for a change in whatever he's doing. According to the all-wise Internet, it's probably completely normal. He doesn't show any of the red flags, such as self-harm, tantrums lasting more than 30 minutes or the inability to calm himself after the tantrum. He's a just strong-willed kid, and he wants to do things on his time. He gets himself out of bed in the morning, no problem. He will go willingly to do something fun. But God forbid you tell him it's time to stop doing something he enjoys — it's like his world is coming to an end.
It's all about his perception of control, I'm sure. He wants to be the one to make the decisions. He wants to control what happens in his own world. I get that. But he's 5, not 2. He's perfectly calm and rational when he's involved in a task he enjoys. From what I read on the web, his prefrontal cortex, which controls emotion, isn't developed enough for him to deal rationally with frustration.
Tantrum triggers include fatigue, hunger, overstimulation and frustration. Check, check and check. We can't get him to bed early enough and he's been refusing to eat. Toss in some Power Rangers and a session of Angry Birds and you have a perfect storm.
Sigh. I don't remember my daughter having these kinds of tantrums at this age. Sure, she had a fit or two when she was younger, and we still get the occasional slammed door and "I hate you." But that's impending teenager-hood, and they don't last.
So what's your advice, oh wise readers? We've been trying to move his bedtime back a little bit at a time, but he just refuses to sleep. We can't get him to eat breakfast and his dinners aren't much better. I might try a "no TV/computer" night once a week and see if that makes a difference, but I'll probably just get another tantrum when he doesn't get to watch TV or play on the computer.
When does a tantrum signal something more serious than growing pains?

Hey Bonnie,
You've probably tried this, but here goes...give him a 10 minute heads up on change, and/or the control when possible. Example: "Its time to get ready for bed, do you want to get off the computer now, or would you like 10 more minutes?" If he throws the tantrum at the 10 minute mark, I would tell him "I will give you another chance to do that differently tomorrow, but if you throw another tantrum like that, you will lose computer the next day."
I LOVE the no computer/TV one night a week - maybe sit down as a family and look at your calendar each week and let them have input, decide, or take turns deciding which night of the week that happens. That night may change week to week due to changing schedules, that's why I would set this week to week.
When Zach was little, he had a VERY hard time with transition - tantrums at each transition - so we came up with lots of ways to give him the heads up on transition. We even made him a picture calendar - showing him with pictures how the day would unfold. It changed our lives. :)
You're such a good mom, understanding that a lot of this is developmental, researching, and asking for some help, loving him through the tough stuff, and being the steady in his chaos. Good job.

It's Trivia time! Who was Spock's father?
The Appleton Post-Crescent, February 1, 1979.
The 14th annual Midwest Trivia Contest will begin at 10 p.m. Friday on Lawrence University's radio station, WLFM, 91.1 on the FM dial.
WLFM's 10,500-watt signal can be heard within a 50-mile radius of Appleton.
In what the contest's masters of trivia believe is the oldest event of its kind in the country, more than 400 questions will be broadcast in the 50 hours between Friday night and Sunday midnight. Teams of Lawrence students and alumni, high school students in the Fox Valley and competitors who come to Appleton from other campuses will be awarded from 5 to 100 points for correct answers, depending upon the difficulty of the questions.
After each question is asked on the air, a record is played while teams call in their answers. A team is given only two chances to give the correct answer.
Winning teams in previous years have been awarded such prizes as a 25-pound sack of dog food, a dust pan, a plumber's helper, and empty 5-pound pail of peanut butter and two tickets to an already played professional football game. Equally valuable prizes are promised this year.
Larry Page, Lawrence's director of broadcasting is confident that the electronic switching system installed last summer by the Wisconsin Telephone Co. will prevent the kind of tie-ups that occurred during the 1978 contest. At brief periods last year, large numbers of calls to WLFM tied up as many as 1,000 telephones in Appleton.
Page said there will be five off-campus telephone lines to WLFM and four on-campus lines. The numbers will be announced at the start of the contest and frequently throughout.
During the contest, the broadcasting director is referred to irreverently as Pope Pontius Page One-Fourth.
Contest questions were compiled by 13 Masters of Trivia, or "Magistris Triviae," as they call themselves in fractured Latin. They are Rick Davis and Gordon Phetteplace, both of La Crosse; George Kurylak, Oak Lawn, Ill.; Mary Myslis, Highland Park, Ill; Mark Piper, Menomonee Falls; Jayne Rohlke, Euclid, Ohio; Llynda Read, Lake Mills; Mike Sigman, Manitowoc; Stuart Spencer, De Pere; Dan Stifter, Wauwatosa; Mark Suendsen, Racine; Deb Sycamore, Millis, Mass.; and Greg Weber, Glidden, Wis.
Weber's brother-in-law, James B. DeRosset, a 1966 Lawrence alumnus, founded the Midwest Trivia Contest in 1966. For 25 Trivia points, what is DeRosset doing now? (Answer: He is a financial analyst with McDonald's Corp.)
Here is a sample of the kinds of questions asked in previous Midwest Trivia Contests and the number of points awarded for correct answers:
1. What was the name of Spock's father in "Star Trek?" (5 points)
2. What was the name of Sky King's ranch?" (5 points)
3. What is the oldest corporation in the United States?" (5 points)
4. What radio character was "champion of the people, defender of fundamental rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?" (25 points)
5. What was the name of the female wolf that raised Sgt. Preston's husky?" (15 points)
Answers: 1. Sarek. 2. Flying Crown. 3. Harvard University. 4. Mr. District Attorney. 5. Three Toes
The Trivia credo states that "Trivia is meant to be entertainment and should be perceived solely in that light. Conduct contrary to this governing credo will be regarded as an infraction of the rules."

SOUTH WHITLEY— Familiar Amish symbols, such as a horse and buggy, may not be a common occurrence in Columbia City, but they thrive in other parts of Whitley County.
The southwest part of the county, which is located within the Whitko Community School Corporation's district boundaries, contains many Amish residents, prompting the need for a second Amish school in the area.
Approximately 38 students attend the newly constructed Country Meadow Amish School from first to eighth grade.
COLUMBIA CITY— A Columbia City man was given a sentence to be served on home detention for sexual misconduct with a minor.
Chais Wilkinson, 19, pleaded guilty to the charge, a Class D felony, in October. When reading the charge at that time, Wilkinson admitted to performing or submitting to fondling a 14-year-old female victim.
Monday, Judge James Heuer sentenced him to the Whitley County Jail for 1.5 years. Wilkinson was given credit for time served at the jail.
He will spend 180 days on home detention, with the rest of his sentence spent on probation.
HUNTINGTON — Former Columbia City High School basketball player Doug Sheckler was honored by Huntington University recently.

Sheckler began playing for the Foresters in 2004, and according to a press release by H.U., his impact on the program was immediate.
COLUMBIA CITY — Columbia City's Water Department took the next step in improving water quality to the Eagle Glen area.
At Tuesday's Board of Works meeting, the board made a bid selection for the Eagle Glen water main loop project, a proposal that is expected to improve water pressure and consistency to the area north of U.S. 30 on Ind. 205.
During the past few years, the area has had issues with its water service, as an old main that services the area has broken several times.

I love coffee shops. I have a Latte 'to go', most mornings – it's part of my commuter coping mechanism!
At the weekends trips to coffee shops are more of a family affair, the kids are particularly partial to Chocolate Cream (the nearest thing to a milk shake on the Starbucks menu).
But as much as the kids enjoy these trips, they quickly become restless (and I mean quickly!). So over the years I have improvised a number of crafty 'keep kids quiet' activities, all of them make use of the materials available in any coffee shop. I hope you find them helpful, or should I say I hope they help you to enjoy your coffee!
[display_adsense ad_type="300×250″]
For another fun (and super simple) coffee shop craft check out the Zen Napkin on page 246 of my new book! If you are interested you can find out more here, or just pop into your local library and ask for Made by Dad: 67 Blueprints for Making Cool Stuff.
Enjoy your coffee (in peace)!

You can register for this competition now, at this page. Registration closes November 1.
I notice they've been calling it the $100,000 annual Wal-Mart Better Living Business Plan Competition, but I guess that amount is the combined total, because the winners take $20,000 for first place, the way I read it. Here are the details on the registration page:
The Wal-Mart Better Living Business Plan Competition is an opportunity to present plans for a profitable business or product with a positive impact on the environment. This year, a total of 32 schools will be chosen to field school-wide competitions, and winners will attend one of eight on-campus regional competitions. Regional winners go to Arkansas to present in front of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. executives, and have the opportunity to win $5,000, $10,000 or $20,000 for their idea! The 32 competing schools will be selected in November 2008, and the final competition will be held in the spring of 2009. We are looking for a diversity of perspectives, so all types of schools and programs are encouraged to apply. Preference will be given to schools who can field more than one team to compete at the school level, and either host or provide support for students to attend the regional competitions.
The page is hosted by Net Impact, a website focusing on business schools and their students.

Multiple small port holes for bd instead of one that's bigger?

Re: Multiple small port holes for bd instead of one that's bigger?
The bass drum measures 22" x 13", so that may also play a part in it, maybe in a deeper bass drum it would take longer for the air to travel to the front head and back, meaning that by the time it comes back to the batter head the pressure is not as powerful?
The shell is made of acrylic, and the hard plastic probably works against me on this one. Maybe a wooden bass drum would absorb the sound a bit more, I guess..
Not burying the beater isn't really an option. I tried that for a while but never got comfortable with it, it just doesn't suit the way my legs work.
I have a DW5000 pedal with the plastic/felt beater (I use the felt side)
Besides, I did some A-B tests and found that for me, with the style I use to play, I actually prefer the sound that comes when you bury the beater. It's more of a snappy, controlled attack sound. Now I just need to combine that thud to getting the right kind of low end out of the reso head.
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll look into those DW reso heads also
