HOUSTON,TX. (AP) - A judge in Houston has been barred from hearing a neighboring county's cases in a dispute over a shoplifting charge against a friend's daughter.
First Court of Appeals Justice Jim Sharp apologized Tuesday. Sharp attorney Brian Wice says his client will cooperate with any inquiry.
The Houston Chronicle reports Sharp faces allegations of trying to use his influence to help a friend's 15-year-old daughter. The girl was arrested Jan. 17 for allegedly shoplifting nearly $190 worth of merchandise.
Brazoria County District Attorney Jeri Yenne alleges Sharp attempted to improperly demand the juvenile's release and sent inappropriate texts and voice messages to county employees.
Yenne filed a complaint with the State Commission on Judicial Conduct and asked that Sharp be recused from Brazoria County cases. The appeals court agreed Friday.

Development of vegetation based soil quality indices for mineralized terrane in arid and semi-arid regions
Blecker, S. W.; Stillings, L. L.; Amacher, M. C.; Ippolito, J. A.; DeCrappeo, N. M. 2012. Development of vegetation based soil quality indices for mineralized terrane in arid and semi-arid regions. Ecological Indicators. 20: 65-74.
doi: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2012.02.010
Soil quality indices (SQIs) are often management driven and attempt to describe key relationships between above- and below-ground parameters. In terrestrial systems, indices that were initially developed and modified for agroecosystems have been applied to non-agricultural systems in increasing number. We develop an SQI in arid and semi-arid ecosystems of the Western US impacted by different types of geologic mineralization using the relationship between vegetation community parameters and soil abiotic and biotic properties. We analyze these relations in soils associated with three different mineralization types: podiform chromite, Cu/Mo porphyry, and acid-sulfate gold vein systems at four different sites in California and Nevada. Soil samples were collected from undisturbed soils in both mineralized and nearby unmineralized substrates as well as from waste rock and tailings. Aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP), canopy cover and shrub density were measured for the vegetative communities. Minimum data sets were developed based on correlations between the soil and vegetation parameters, refined using principal components analysis, scored using non-linear functions, and combined into an overall SQI. The indices are comprised of one or two microbial parameters and three to six abiotic parameters, the latter consisting of nutrients and metals. Given the preliminary development of this approach, the parameters and combinations to arrive at an SQI for a given site cannot at this time be correlated or compared with that of another site. This SQI approach provides a means of quantifying disturbed ecosystem recovery resulting from mining, and could be applied to other disturbances in a way that readily distills the information for potential use by land managers. However, severely disturbed areas with little to no aboveground biomass, such as unreclaimed tailings, have likely crossed an ecological threshold that precludes the use of this type of monitoring tool.

Griggs Out, Prado In Against Phil Davis At UFC on FX 4 | UFC NEWS
An undisclosed injury has forced Chad Griggs out of his future bout at UFC on Fox 4 bout against Phil Davis. Filling the void left by Griggs absence is undefeated prospect Wagner Prado. Prado is a young and talented Brazilian out of the Nogueira training camp. Prado is making the jump to the UFC with an inaugural bout against a very tough wrestler in Davis.
Phil Davis is coming off of his first professional loss to Rashad Evans and is looking to get back on the winning track against the inexperienced new comer.
Prado is entering the UFC octagon for the first time and has gone on record to say that fighting in the UFC is a dream come true.
"My biggest dream is to be the UFC light heavyweight champion of the world and thank God I'm on the right track, but I'll go up one step at a time. I'm working toward achieving my goal and one day I'll be there," said Prado in April.
The UFC on Fox 4 card is set to take place August 4 live on Fox from the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

I think Phil will win the dudes pretty good. But I've only seen prado once. But this will be a
Good fight for prado, he'll learn alot and keep improving.
I'll go ahead and be that guy…
How did the UFC find a guy to fight Phil Davis that doesn't even have a wikipedia page? They must want phil to win pretty bad.
(Go on and tell me how amazing what's his name is…. you never know, you might be right.)
only in sherdog..
this is like a demotion for phil davis he just fought Evans who was the latest number 1 contender for the LHW belt now he's fighting some nameless brazilian fool wtf
I wont believe whos fighting who until dight night. Damn shuffling sick heada
the reason davis is fighting a nobody, is because after his pitiful slap boxing session with evans the ufc realized he fucking sucks. as of may 31, 2012, i declare, phil davis vs rashad evans the worst display of mma skills ive ever seen in a fight. if rashad didnt have name power, he wouldnt even been giving a title shot for that pathetic fight. i thought phil had potential, but i was very wrong. dude is sooo slow, and his boxing mechanics might be the worst in the ufc lhw division.

By JUSTIN DEMARCO
When Penguins captain Sidney Crosby gained position on Islanders defenseman Brian Strait and drove to the net in overtime of Game 3, I knew a penalty was going to be called when Crosby went down and I was fine it.
The crowd clearly disagreed since it was a call against the home team at a pivotal moment, but it was the right call at the time. After reading Jeff Capellini's excellent column on this play for WFAN.COM, I agree with the majority of his points, except, I believe, the call had to be made.
Strait did everything in his power to keep the puck out of the net and defend against No. 87. That included Strait placing both of his hands on the star's left shoulder as Crosby crashed the net. As the play developed, the referee, Tim Peel, saw Strait's hands on Crosby's jersey, Crosby going to the ice and Strait throwing his hands up as if to say "It wasn't me." Usually, when that happens, a player at least knows he may have done something wrong, hence the "I swear I didn't do it" reaction.
So, Peel called the penalty. Since Strait barely contested it I believed that he thought he held Crosby, too. Watching the replay from the angle at the 1:21 mark of this video you can see Crosby goes down pretty easily, but that wasn't what Peel saw originally.
Before you go crazy and want to protest the series, keep in mind that the referee, Peel, who made the call was standing to the side of the net as the play developed and had a judgment call to make. I'm sure Peel wasn't thinking "this guy is a diver," but rather "If he went down there must have been a reason," especially since Crosby's strength is well-known throughout the league.
ESPN commentator — and noted New York Rangers fan — Linda Cohn questioned the call immediately:
Even Lebron doesn't get calls Crosby gets. #nhlplayoffs
— Linda Cohn (@lindacohn) May 5, 2013
We can question a lot of things about that play. If someone took down Islanders star John Tavares like that would the call have been made? As Capellini pointed out in his column — and as any Isles fan knows from watching games — players take liberties with Tavares all the time with few calls actually made.
You can ask, what if a well- respected, veteran player — for argument's sake, let's say, Chris Pronger — took down Crosby like that in overtime, would the penalty have been called? Probably not, especially when you consider everything Pronger was able to get away with during his playing days, even against Crosby.
But those hypotheticals aren't going to do anyone any good. We all know how the game ended a few seconds later when Crosby found Chris Kunitz in front for the game winning goal.
At the end of the day, Crosby put himself in a position to be successful and made the most of it. Great players find a way. They always do. If Crosby didn't do that awesome spin-o-rama move on Strait and make his way to the net, the referee wouldn't have had to make that call. You can say what you want about Crosby "being a baby," or "being soft," but one thing cannot be questioned: the guy knows how to win games, especially the biggest ones.
Now, let's see if Crosby gets that call again. Peel's the last one (or any official for that matter) who wants to be embarrassed and held responsible for a "bad call" that costs a team a game, especially in the playoffs.

Help yellow electric cichlid breeding picture
Hi, i have 5 electric yellow cichlids. 2 Females and 3 males. Every time the female is holding eggs i wait 3-4 weeks and i strip them in a container. The problem is, every single time, the eggs arent even developped (they remain orange). Sometimes a few of them have a dark/blue spot or white but still, after that time they should at least be developped somehow. I have them for over 3 years i bought them since they were fry (1inch)
35 gallons, lots of rocks/caves, average temperature 75-80 Fahrenheit, green algae growing on rocks and a nice colony of trumpet snails
water changes: almost never because no need, water cristal clear and smells pure
feeding: pillbugs from under rocks + other critters i find+ flakes when im lazy, rate: every other day or so
I have no idea what to do i love my fishies lol but i want them to breed
in the picture is one of my females. most fish are over arround 3 inch with the biggest 4inch
try keeping the eggs with the female longer. wait until you can see fry swimming about in her mouth. sounds like they may not be getting properly fertilized?your friendly neighbourhood arowanaman!
I don't strip my mbuna so I can't help much there. I just let them have the fry in the tank and I always have a few survivors even though I have a mixed mbuna tank. I would try changing up their diet, yellow labs are mostly herbivores eating the occasional small crustacean. A 1 to 2 mm pellet food designed for African cichlids would be best. Too much protein and they can get bloat. Good luck.
water changes: almost never because no need, water cristal clear and smells pure
First of all I think the above statement is one of your issues. Just how often do you do a water change? A slightly colder than normal water change will sometimes trigger breeding. What are your water parameters ie Ammonia, nitrates, nitrites. Pristine water is one of the most important parts of the equation when it comes to a successful breeding program. Do you have a proper egg tumbler to put the eggs into once you have collected them? Have you thought of setting up a nursery tank for the holding females. It is less stressful for her as she does not have the males continuously harassing her to breed again.Sailor

ill come back with the info about water parameters
I agree with holding longer in the female. Sometimes the female will spit the eggs and get them refertilized...
When a male is breeding with a female, the female lays the eggs, and the eggspot on the male is there because the female goes for them and gets a shot in the mouth of the males fertilizer. (trying to stay pc here) - If they doesnt get all the way in, she sometimes spits and has it over again. The female will have the best flow and enviroment in her mouth where an egg tumbler could still fungus unmatured eggs.
A holding period is 20 days long... strip at 12-15 days when you can see wrigglers with egg sacks.FW: 1 45gal, 1 40gal, 3 10gal, 3 30gal all community tanks of different species

Peering into the abyss
Television - Andrew Billen on why we should be sorry to lose a decrepit institution
Television - Andrew Billen on why we should be sorry to lose a decrepit institution
by Andrew Billen Published
Alastair Campbell must have done something truly terrible to Molly Dineen - confiscate the unused videotape from her 1997 party election broadcast for Labour, for example - for her to have made The Lords' Tale (Channel 4, 3 November). It proved to be the best argument for the retention of the hereditary principle that I have come across and not a bad one for the abolition of new Labour. If Dineen came to mock the crusty old peers, by the time she left, a few days after 654 of them lost their right to sit and vote, she was in mourning weeds.
Like London Zoo and the decrepit, pre-modernised Angel Tube station in London, the subjects of Dineen's most famous documentaries, the Upper House has been living on borrowed time for years, ever since, in fact, the 1911 Parliament Act stated that reform would "brook no delay". But Dineen loves anachronistic institutions in the way others love out-of-season seaside resorts. Here again, she discovered that although an institution may deserve demolishment, those who run it tend not to. Thus, the despised old nobs, the Tory "lobby fodder" "bussed in" to thwart the People's will, turned out to be in every respect nicer than the professional politicians who wanted them out.
At first, it seemed as if Dineen, with her charmingly ingenuous voice ("Have you met this heavenly bird?" asked Earl Ferrers of a chum), was deliberately picking the House's weakest relics. On their first appearance, a caption mockingly cited the year their title had been created. Yet you soon realised that the more remote the year, the less in hoc the descendant was to power in general, and the power of the party machine in particular. The inevitable conclusion was that an upper house of nominees would look more modern but be infinitely more corrupt.
Earl Stockton, Macmillan's grandson, swaggered, but then his granddad only got his peerage 20 years ago. Earl Romney, whose family had been mere riff-raff barons until 1801, did not swagger. He lived alone in a modest farmhouse without, it seemed, any party political convictions at all, save for a vague suspicion that democracy was an excuse to consult everyone and then go ahead and do what nobody wants. Reckoning he had nothing original to say, he never did get round to making his maiden speech. But he made a point of listening.
A humorous codger called Earl Westbury owed his seat to the year 1861, but turned out to be a war hero who used his access to Westminster to impress donors to his favourite charity, St John's Ambulance. He had, one felt, repaid the debt to society imposed by his birth. Lord Erroll (1452), meanwhile, was a with-it software designer and entrepreneur while Lord Gray (1445) manned his own petrol pumps in Argyll. "I'm a comparatively ordinary bloke," he said. You wonder how many pump attendants a reformed system would bring to the second chamber.
Dineen says she fears being accused of making a one-sided film and blames Labour's refusal to co-operate. It certainly did not help that there was no one there to put the case for abolition. That said, she wrung all available pathos out of the "indignity" of the 240 Tory peers having to vote for the 42 who would linger on in the chamber until a new system was decided upon. As a propagandist, she also had the luck to find that their last stand was against a cut in allowances for the disabled rather than, say, trying the abolition of fox-hunting. And how many intolerably rich and complacent toffs, I wondered, ended up on the cutting-room floor? With the exception of Lord Carrington, whose conceit appears infinite, and the canny Tory leader, Lord Strathclyde, all her peers were kindly old walruses. Who could dream of closing their rest home?
Yet Labour gloated as it set about its clubbing expedition. The war cries of Tony Blair and Margaret Beckett were unpleasant enough, but Gerald Kaufman's nastiness excelled them. If, he said, MPs supported the amendment restoring the disability payments, they would be taking the side of "two dukes, 28 earls, 22 viscounts and Andrew Lloyd Webber". As Earl Ferrers (1711) pointed out: "Who people are is not their fault and people who come, come to do a job of work." Yet Kaufman, despite himself, made the real case for the abolition of the hereditary principle in the legislature. If a revising chamber, even when it is doing good works, can be so easily discredited, it is high time it was revised itself. Elect the Lords, I say. Give them teeth. But ban anyone who has ever before stood for election.
Incidentally, just as Lords reform is taking an eternity, it is worth admiring the almost ridiculous amount of time Dineen took to make this film. To her amusement, one of her dandruffy, white-moustached favourites, Lord Romney, told her that by the time her film was shown he would long be dead. "I'm not laughing," she said, "at your early death but because it takes me so long to make a film." The earl was wrong, however. The hereditaries were kicked out in November 1999 and, although it has indeed taken her three years to edit her documentary down to 90 delicious minutes, the House of Lords database happily insists he remains extant.

Luton Town have failed to deliver, says Lincoln City boss David Holdsworth
Posted: January 21, 2013|
Lincoln City boss David Holdsworth believes Luton are struggling to live up to expectations.
The Hatters spent big in the summer as they looked to finally get back in the Football League.
However, indifferent form sees them only just in contention of the play-off places in the Blue Square Bet Premier.
And ahead of the Imps' trip to Kenilworth Road on Tuesday night (7.45pm), Holdsworth believes the club's aspirations are proving a big challenge for them.
"The expectations on Luton are very high now," said Holdsworth.
"They have an exceptional squad and making signings like Jon Shaw, Scott Rendell and Andre Gray are massive statements of intent.
"There is a great deal of quality on the books and everybody who is looking on is probably thinking they should be in the play-offs at the very least.
"The aspirations are there about the club and you can understand that some of the supporters believe that Luton are bigger than a number of clubs in League Two.
"It is about how manager Paul Buckle deals with that and also about him delivering on them."
Even if Luton are not living up to their pre-season hype, Holdsworth is refusing to take them for granted.
The Imps boss believes no one should overlook the quality in their team.
"Buckle has a lot of quality in his team, so you should not underestimate them," said Holdsworth.
"Even if they are maybe not achieving the expectations that are set for them, they are very capable players."

All guilds have problems and all guilds have drama; if you read the site you have the opportunity to see a lot of what goes on elsewhere if your own guild isn't host to a ton of trouble. My own wasn't for the most part until last night, and I tend to read Officers' Quarters and Guildwatch with the sense of clinical detachment you might expect from a surgeon's dispassionate survey of a necrotic limb. Not so much so anymore, I think. Guild-ending matters are usually the result of a slow burn you recognize only in hindsight, and when I read of of break-ups it's hard not to think about the names you don't know and wonder who was the whistle-blower, who tried to save the ship, who abandoned it altogether, and who was simply lost along the way.
Guilds are fragile families. This will be an interesting week.

» TSA to Purchase 3.5 Million Rounds of Ammunition Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!
…..Earlier this month it was announced that VIPR agents would now be patting down Americans "outside the airport" by conducting stop and search shake downs at transport hubs and public events.As Government Security News notes, the amount of ammunition being purchased, "means the TSA could fire off more than 9,400 rounds per day, every day of the year, to consume that entire quantity annually.
"Significant bullet purchases by the TSA are likely to fuel concerns that the federal government is arming itself to the teeth in preparation for some form of domestic unrest or other catastrophe, following the Department of Homeland Security's commitment to purchase more than 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition over the course of the last 18 months.

Good afternoon everyone. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving, however now its time to wake up from that turkey induced coma and hit the stores for some great deals. Black Friday can be crazy, so before you head out, download the new WBIR ipad app or go to www.wbir.com/blackfriday and check out info on where the best deals are.

By Army Sgt. 1st Class Tyrone C. Marshall Jr.American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, June 19, 2012 Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta will lead a delegation representing the United States to offer its sympathies to the kingdom of Saudi Arabia following the death of Crown Prince Nayif bin Abd al-Aziz Al Saud, the White House announced today.
"President Barack Obama today announced the designation of a presidential delegation to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to offer condolences to the custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abd al-Aziz Al Saud, on the passing of HRH Nayif bin Abd al-Aziz Al Saud, crown prince and deputy premier and minister of interior," the statement said.
Panetta issued a statement saying he was "deeply saddened" to learn of the crown prince's passing, and that during his nearly four decades as interior minister, Crown Prince Nayif "worked tirelessly for the protection of the Kingdom and the Saudi people. His visionary leadership and courage were instrumental to the gains we have made together against terrorism and extremism, and helped save Saudi and American lives."
Panetta said he would "express the condolences of the American people on this loss, reaffirm my commitment to our stong security partnership, and express my hope that this partnership will endure as a lasting tribute to the legacy of Crown Prince Nayif."
The delegation is scheduled to depart June 20, 2012 and will also include James B. Smith, United States Ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, John Brennan, assistant to the president for homeland security and counterterrorism; and Robert S. Mueller III, director of the FBI.
The White House statement also noted that A. Elizabeth Jones, acting assistant secretary of state for near eastern affairs; George J. Tenet, former director of the CIA; and Frances Fragos Townsend, former assistant to the president for counterterrorism and homeland security will serve as part of the delegation.

Restaurant Critic Review: Fine dining at Sonya's in Vero Beach would make Mickey proud
Cuisine: American
Hours: 6-10 p.m. Thursday-Sunday
Address: 9250 Island Grove Terrace, Vero Beach
Phone: 772-234-2000
Alcohol: Full bar
Handicapped access: Yes
Reservations: No
Inevitably, once Mickey Mouse became a household name, he felt he deserved more than just a bite of cheese. Ordinary rodents might enjoy cheddar and Swiss, but we're talking Mickey here.
We're talking a guy more famous than The Donald (Trump and Duck, both).
So, The Mouse built Sonya's, the fine dining restaurant at the Walt Disney Resort in Vero Beach. He got fat and happy on coconut curry she-crab soup ($7), fire-roasted wild Atlantic salmon ($29) and yes, a tasting of artisanal American cheeses ($12).
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
On the night we visited, my friend and I had a little trouble connecting. She arrived first and wandered the hotel lobby. It is confusing — you have to walk through the more casual Shutters restaurant to get to Sonya's.
I arrived a few minutes later and was stopped by the guard at the gate. Then I was stopped on my way to the dining room. The resort staff seemed a little discombobulated. Maybe Mickey himself was in the house.
But once we were seated, things improved exponentially. We were served a delectable amuse bouche, a little mango and avocado creation meant to awaken our palates.
The easiest solution to a shared appetizer was the shrimp and crab dip ($12). To be honest, I wasn't expecting much. But Mickey outdid himself. This dip was chock full of pieces of jumbo shrimp and lump crabmeat. It was outstanding.
The restaurant does a fine job of pan-searing things, a crafty technique that seals in juices and gives the food a glossy sheen. Buttery jumbo scallops ($33) were prepared this way, as was beef tenderloin ($36). Side dishes included grown-up lobster mashed potatoes and truffle-infused mac and cheese.
In honor of the big guy, we also chose the seasonal salad of arugula and figs ($9). It was scattered with crumbles of blue cheese.

Patrick refuses to leave with her to go to General Hospital. He took the pills from there and they will put two and two together. He could lose his job.

Maggie is brought into the hospital on a stretcher and she sees Olivia, Steve and Heather. They are told it was an OD. Steve doesn't believe it but the medics show him the pill bottle. Olivia stops Heather from entering the room they wheel Maggie in and tells her to start praying. Heather accuses Olivia of wanting Maggie to die. She rips open the curtain and Heather looks into the room. Steve works furiously on Maggie but she flat lines anyway. They call time of death at 3:26 PM. Heather is ecstatic. Olivia holds onto Steve as he wonders why Maggie would take those pills. Heather pulls out a letter from her purse and approaches a nurse to get Steve's mail. Heather inserts the letter and hands Steve the mail. They read the letter and confesses to the murder. They wheel out the body.

Tremaine Townsend Named Big West Co-Player of the Week
Irvine, Ca - Cal State Northridge junior Tremaine Townsend (Phoenix, Ariz.) and UC Santa Barbara sophomore guard James Powell (Pomona, Calif./Glendora HS) were named Big West Men's Basketball Co-Players of the Week as both players posted solid efforts in leading their teams to victory.
Townsend nearly averaged a double-double in helping Cal State Northridge to a 2-1 record last week. Townsend recorded his second straight double-double with season highs in points (16) and rebounds (15) to lead the Matadors to a 78-68 victory at Cleveland State (11/28/07). Townsend then registered ten points and ten rebounds for his third consecutive double-double in a 97-74 loss to Duquesne (12/1/07) in the first game of the Drake Iowa Realty Tournament. Townsend finished the tournament with six points, four rebounds and a pair of steals in a victory over NC Central (69-43) and was named to the all-tournament team.
Townsend averaged 10.7 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.3 steals as he played 90 minutes in a reserve role.
Cal State Northridge hosts Utah Valley State on Wednesday (12/5/07) at 7:00 p.m. at The Matadome.
Powell drained the game-winning three-pointer with less than half a second remaining as UCSB defeated UNLV, 63-60 last Tuesday. Powell scored all 15 of his points in the second half on three-pointers, setting a career high with his five threes. He added four rebounds, three assists and two steals as the Gauchos downed UNLV for the second consecutive year.
In a 63-56 win at Loyola Marymount, Powell hit 2 of 5 from three-point land for 11 points, and contributed season-highs in rebounds (6) and assists (5). For the week, Powell made 50.0% (7 of 14) of his three-point attempts to help the Gauchos extend their winning streak to five, their longest in five years.

Teacher Appreciation Day!
May 7th was teacher appreciation day, a day that students and parents show teachers just how much they appreciate the hard work they put into their jobs…one local school went above and beyond what was expected, to show their teachers how special they are. NewsSource 8 reporter Kelly O'Mara has the story.
It only took the students three weeks to raise all of that money…and one last note, the class that raised the largest amount of money may surprise you…it was the four students in the Kindergarten class! They raised over 100 dollars for the fundraiser.

Natural History
Usually loners, kelp bass join together to prey on small schooling fishes. They attack the school from all angles and may leap out of the water in hot pursuit.
Even though they're called kelp bass, these fish don't require kelp. They'll congregate around any type of structure, like shipwrecks, rocks, pipes and pilings.
Kelp bass are a popular recreational fishery species in Southern California.
Cool Facts
Larval kelp bass drift along as plankton and settle on blades of giant kelp. The kelp acts as giant sieves, straining larvae out of the water.
The ear bones (otoliths) of kelp bass are occasionally found in Indian middens (refuse piles).

Southern bounces back with 24-19 win at Cedar Ridge
Southern Vance rebounded from a Week 1 blowout loss to Elizabeth City Northeastern with a 24-19 win over Cedar Ridge (0-2) in Hillsborough Friday.
The Northeastern Eagles put a similar smashing on Northern Nash Friday, 45-0.
Sheldon Smith, known more for his defensive play, gave the Raiders the lead Friday on a run from about 6 yards out to make it 18-13 in the third quarter before Raider quarterback Ty-Traveon Roberts ran in for a 12-yard score.
"He was great," Southern head coach Lewis Young said of Smith, also a linebacker. "He was just carrying people with him. He was a beast out there. He was an animal."
Southern rallied from a 13-0 deficit and cut it to one point by halftime after a 40-yard run from Qualik Shearin and a 60-yard interception return for touchdown by Stanton Fields.
The Raiders were playing without top wide out Shawn Henderson as well as receiver DeAndre Jefferson.
"It was really big," Young said of the win. "Without them, coming out and getting a win like this is really big for us."
Southern is off next week and returns to action Sept. 13 at home against Northern Vance.
"That means so much to have that win behind you having that extra week off," said Young. "Now we get a week off and a chance to work on the mistakes so we can get better, work on preparing for Northern Vance."

Re: Principles for Evaluating Websites
One of my favourites is "Save the North-West Tree Octopus". A few educators have used this one in class, to teach people about trusting what you read. Apparently there was a statewide trial across Connecticut recently.
Another classic last year, was an Australian comic living in New York, who received over 10,000 signatures on a petition calling on the US govt. to repeal their ban on Vegemite (a famous australian toastal-topping). There was no ban.
Both of these articles used a range of strategies to appear completely trustworthy. The octopus has graphics, Latin names, scientific details ..
thanks for the article Stephen,

By Sgt. Sara Wood, USAAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20, 2007 Military members with a desire to mentor and shape young minds now may not have to face the anxiety of an uncertain future when retiring or separating from the military.
In a new twist on Troops to Teachers, a program that has long been producing teachers out of the ranks of the military, qualified servicemembers can now be hired in advance to work as teachers in certain school districts.
The Hire in Advance Program, which has launched in Las Vegas, Denver, and Newark, N.J., guarantees teaching jobs for eligible military up to three years before they retire or separate from active duty, Wayne Rees, of Mt. West Troops to Teachers in Las Vegas, said in an interview.
Troops who qualify for the Hire in Advance program can send in applications and interview with school officials, who can officially hire them up to three years before they leave active duty, Rees explained. During that time, military members can finish the necessary schooling and teaching requirements, creating a seamless transition between active duty and the start of their new careers, he said.
The program was unveiled in Las Vegas in June, and the first two Hire in Advance Program agreements were awarded. Since then, Troops to Teachers has been working with states, especially those with high-needs areas, to expand the program, Rees said.
"We absolutely are offering it to every state and every school district, with the hopes that we can help our military personnel have a seamless transition from the military into teaching kindergarten through 12th grade public schools," he said.
To qualify for the Hire in Advance Program, servicemembers must have a bachelor's degree and meet other Troops to Teachers requirements, such as having served six or more years in the military honorably. The program offers counseling and referral services for each state, as well as a $5,000 stipend to help pay certification costs. Servicemembers may also qualify for an extra $5,000 if they are hired at a high-needs school.
Air Force Maj. Dayton Rogalski, chief information officer for the Nellis Air Force Base, Nev., hospital, was one of the first servicemembers awarded a hire in advance agreement. His 23-year military career ends in about three months, and he hopes to become a business education teacher at the high school level, he said.
Rogalski, who has teaching experience from his time in the military, said he wants to become a teacher because he believes youth are the future of America. "The Troops to Teachers program has enabled me to pursue teaching through their support and funding," he said. "They have delivered on all the points they presented."
Rogalski said he believes servicemembers make good teachers because they bring military values, patriotism and cultural experiences to the classroom. Rees agreed, noting that teaching fits a need many servicemembers have to give back to the community.
"Because they have been dealing with and leading young men and teaching them, it's a natural transition," Rees said. "This is a program that has a variety of skill sets that will translate from the military into civilian life."
Troops to Teachers and the Hire in Advance Program are both open to military spouses as well, Rees said. Spouses are not eligible for the two $5,000 stipends, but can receive up to $600 to help with certification, he said. Teaching is a convenient career for military spouses, he pointed out, because the demand for teachers ensures employment, even with frequent moves.

This 'won't pass blank grey screen' scenario has happened to me for quite a few times now.
You can skipped "First Time" and "Second Time" if you don't have time to read. Please go straight to "Third Time (most recent)" section cos' I need help there!
First Time
What I had: Bootcamp Dual boot with Leopard and Vista Ultimate 32 bits
What happened: won't pass blank grey screen
Tried: pressing 'c' to boot from leopard CD, resetting PRAM, holding mac mouse to eject without success.
I finally took the mac to store and left it there for a few days till they called me up. They said they tested the hardware which was fine and said software has some issues. I went there and the guy told me to hold down that magic 'c' again while booting and it BOOTED into the leopard cd in one shot. I did a clean install of Leopard and windows.
Problem solved!
Second Time
What I had: Bootcamp Dual boot with Leopard and XP Pro 32 bits
What happened: won't pass BLANK grey screen.
Tried: pressing 'c' to boot from leopard CD, resetting PRAM, holding mac mouse to eject without success, etc..
This time, I didn't take it to store. After my iMac was fixed from the first time, I did install XP Pro I got from my university (you can still see I didn't give up dual booting yet) after Vista failed on me. But this stupid grey screen came up every time again. My leopard cd was in the cd-drive which ran at the startup and then nothing happened with 'c' pressed. So I was frustated and left it like that and was using my laptop. Two days ago, I restarted my mac and wala! it booted straight into Leopard. I didn't press anything. It was MAGIC. I can't believe it.
Problem solved!
Third Time (most recent, different from above two, NEED some HELP HERE!!!!)
What I had: Bootcamp Dual boot with Leopard and XP Pro 32 bits
What happened***: won't pass the grey screen WITH AN APPLE logo***.
0. I haven't put in my leopard CD yet. Because once I put it in, it WILL NOT come out!
1. Pressed 'X' - no response.
2. Pressed 'option' - nothing happened (this time, the apple logo disappears from the grey screen after boot up, but nothing after that)
3. Pressed 'ctrl+S'. Nothing happened (grey screen with apple)
4. Pressed 'cmd+S'. Then it booted in to a black screen and showed me some texts. I copied the last few lines below:
Mac framework successfully initialized
using 10485 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers
devfs_make_node: not ready for devices!
IOAPIC: Version 0x20 vectors 64:87
ACPI: syster state [S0 S3 S4 S5] (S3)
mbinit: done
Security auditing service present
BSM auditing present
rooting via boot-uuid from /chosen: C611669E-6047-3161-A8E6-327A8F98BEAC
Waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOProviderClass</key><string ID="1">IOResources</string><key>IOResourceMatch</key><string ID="2">boot-uuid-media</string></dict>
FireWire (OHCI) Lucent ID 5901 built-in now active, GUID 001cb3fffe9eda40; max speed x800.
wl0: Broadcom BCM4328 802.11 Wireless Controller
Sometimes, the last two lines: "FireWire (OHCI)....." and "wl0: Broadcom...." showed up, but not always. It stucked at "Waiting on <dict....." line usually.
PLEASE HELP ME!! I don't have a car to take it to the store. I have to bother my friend again. So I want to solve it at home.
Thanks a lot!

This morn, net connection dropped. Didn't think much of it. Reboated router and modem, and g5.
On startup, this is where things got hairy. Gray screen with apple logo, and fans running constantly, loud.
-Could not boot in safe mode.
-Booted from Leopard install disc, and performed a disc repair, unsuccessfuly gave me error "disc could not be unmounted"
-Performing reinstall of Leopard now (taking 3 hrs now, way longer than when i upgraded)
Seems when i upgraded to leopard 3 months ago, the machine starting running way hotter than previously, and fan ran more often. Could this have affected the disc?
Haven't heard of many macs overheating under similar conditions as mine.

The hard disk is OK, because with a firewire, I am able to use it as an external drive to operate a seperate iMac. Firmware is current, and all startup options work except it won't pass the grey screen with the apple and the spinner will not spin.
Help. I want to avoid using an expensive tech service.

So, iv got the same problem, but apple store is way to far, and i don't have my license yet, so iv tried to do everything i could, and have made my computer work again.
I have 27'' iMac,3.2GHz, intel core i3, 2010. I had a boot camp windows installed on it, witch was working with no problems, so at least I could copy all of my files to external hard drive. But the fact that i had my windows work perfectly, i knew that the problem that i (we) had is not with hardware.
There is 2 DVD, that have came with my computer: one is Mac OS X install DVD, and the second one is iMac application install DVD. I have inserted the first one into my computer, and booted it of the DVD. (to boot from dvd drive, turn off your computer any way you want, then turn it back on and press opton(alt) key starting as son as you hear the apple-turn-on sound, and keep pressing it until you will see the picture of your hard drive, and then, you can press the "eject the CD/DVD" key on your keyboard. The current CD/DVD will be ejected, and you can put in the iMac OS X install DVD. Than you should wait at least a minute, you will see a new CD pic. on there, chose it and press "enter".)
After booting my computer of that DVD, you will see that grayish screen but this time wait. ( the information is loading from the DVD. It will take about 2-5 minutes, but you should wait all 10. If it doesn't work, start over with that booting thing), it will tell you, that its gonna install you a new OS, but don't worry about that. In the menu you'll see, you will have to chose a language, so do it. After that, you will see a regular Mac top screen bar, with something like """apple sign", "mac OS installer", bla bla bla... , and finally "utilities"" on it. We need the utilities thing. Click it, and it will give you different utilities. The one that i have used,(and probably you should) is "Disk utility". Open it, and choose the hard drive with the installed Mac OS on it (probably it will be named Macintosh HD. Then, click the "verify disk", it should take some time, and after its done (hopefully saying that you have tons of errors and problems with it), click "Repair Disk".Hopefully it will repair it. Then you can run the "verify the disk permissions" test, and then "repair disk permissions".
That the thing that have SAVED my iMac. So now just shut it down by pressing the power button, and turn it on as regular, and it MUST work!!!!
If it doesn't, you van run some other tests, (for example a hardware test that is on the other DVD, just boot for it). But if it DOES work, well we are happy people now, with working Macs .
i am very new to the mac, and i am very happy (and proud) that i have solved this problem, zoo please email me, if it worked for you!! firstname.lastname@example.com, or to my mailbox on mac-forums.com

To the Times of Ti:
We just wanted to take some time to share a little bit about our organization and highlight some things from 2012.
This past year we were busy and responded to 540 emergency calls. This is a record for our department. Most of our calls seem to occur during the daytime between the hours of 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., when many of our volunteers work. However, our volunteers overcame all of these obstacles and did an outstanding job this past year.
Each of our responders took anywhere from 10 to 200 calls where each call averages an hour. We had five individuals take a Certified First Responder Course, which is approximately 60 hours, two individuals who took an EMT basic course, which is approximately 190 hours, and one individual who is currently taking the advanced EMT critical care course, which is well over 300 hours. Most of our members also took several hours of continuing education courses, many of which are offered out of the area. Our department as a whole has put in thousands of hours to help our community. This is truly remarkable considering we are all volunteer.
Financially, we rely on the billing of our patients to keep operating costs down as with many ambulance squads. We also receive funding from the town of Putnam and by donations. We do not receive funding from the town of Ticonderoga. Many people do not understand all the costs that are involved with operating an ambulance squad. Billings from patients only cover a small portion of these operating costs. Therefore, many ambulance squads in the county receive funding from the towns they cover to off set remaining costs. All in all, we were able to keep costs down as much as possible and still provide the best care to our patients. Looking ahead, our anticipated expenditures that we budgeted for in 2013 are $130,000. However, we anticipate there will be some unplanned expenses.

Mother of Newquay stag party reveller Jez Griffiths says death was 'tragic accident'
Posted: May 31, 2013|
A POPULAR "lad's lad" who was found dead on the slipway to a Newquay beach this month may have been the victim of a tragic accident, his mother has said.
Jez Griffiths, 31, was on a stag do in the resort with friends when he went missing on the way back to their hotel at around 2am on Saturday, May 11.
Pauline Griffiths, 57, of Gosport in Hampshire, has paid tribute to her "fun-loving" son ahead of his funeral today, when hundreds are expected to pay their respects.
And she said his pals believe he had simply got lost and slid over on the cobbled slipway to Towan beach, "tragically hitting his head in the wrong place".
A group of friends placed flowers and cards at the spot where Jez died on Friday, and told a Cornish Guardian reporter he had been fine and speaking coherently before he disappeared.
Cornwall Council said the slipway was inspected regularly and "no defects" were spotted during the last inspection on April 18. It is now up to Cornwall's county coroner to ascertain how Jez died.
Mrs Griffiths said: "Nobody knows exactly what happened; they were all coming back to the hotel.
"They think he's gone the wrong way and he slipped on a little incline down to the beach and just tragically hit his head in the wrong place."
One of the stag group, best man Stewart Maneely, 33, said Jez had decided to call it a night and head back home.
"We were all shocked by what happened," he said. "The journey home was one of the worst in my life, as we all tried to comfort each other. Jez was always a joy to be around and a great friend."
Jez, who worked in recruitment and lived in Havant, Hampshire, is survived by his mother, his brother David, 29, who lives in Australia, and grandmother, Joyce Evans, 85.
He left for Australia in 2009 when the firm he worked for folded but returned after discussing coming back to the area with his mum.
Mrs Griffiths said: "He was fun-loving, he had a wicked sense of humour – he would take the mickey out of everyone but could take it as well.
"He was a lad's lad – he went out on stag nights, anything for fun.
'The weekend [he died] was awful but then when you think what he's done with his life then you've got to take the positives out of it.
"If I'd done as much as he had by his age ... it's just amazing.
"He's been all over the world and he had a huge number of friends he'd got through the various activities he's done over the years.
"He's been to Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, Las Vegas, Magaluf, Ibiza and all round Australia."
Jez's death was the second fatality in Newquay in a fortnight.
A police investigation also continues into the death of local angler Mick Kearns, 48, who died outside Sailors Nightclub in the early hours of Saturday, April 27.
This paper reported on May 15 that some tourism and community leaders had said deaths at seaside resorts were "tragic but inevitable".
