"Relaxing stay, great massage!"
Reviewed January 16, 2011
The massage itself was fantastic. We stayed one night and thought the room was totally fine - clean and attractive - and the bed was super comfy. The front desk guy was very cheerful and helpful, and the lake and park are right nearby (my husband went for a stroll while I got a rubdown and my toes did).

|Just a few people I met in 2013 - how can you not smile big?!
You know how you take note of one particular feature on someone, all the time?! You either always notice someone's eyes first, or their nose, or their _________ (fill in the blank).
I am a self-professed teeth person. I can't help but take notice of someone's teeth when I am talking with them. It's not whether they're crooked (like mine) or straight, I find it very difficult to talk very long with someone who has grimy teeth. The kind where you wonder if the dental hygienist gags...
I love to smile so it's very important that I have healthy teeth!
My teeth used to be yellower (overindulgent coffee drinker here) but since using the Philips Sonicare FlexCare rechargeable toothbrush, they've whitened up quite a bit. It's noticeable and not just to me.
Other benefits:
* My gums no longer bleed
* My dental hygienist gave me two thumbs up, least amount of plaque in the 18 years she's been cleaning my teeth
I've sung the praises of the Philips Sonicare FlexCare line before (I've used their FlexCare+ for over 2 years) and now with the new Platinum line, I'm in love even more. My teeth feel like they're cleaner, longer. I really notice by the end of the day, I still have that smooth feeling.
Two weeks ago I won the Philips Sonicare FlexCare Platinum rechargeable sonic toothbrush. The first thing I noticed off the bat was its weight. It's super light!!
Other important information:
- Patented sonic technology delivers 31,000 brush strokes per minute
- Includes 2 Sonicare intercare brush heads to remove up to 7x more plaque between teeth than a manual toothbrush
- Helps prevent gingivitis and gum recession
- 3 modes combine with 3 personalized intensity levels to adapt to your brushing needs
- Built-in pressure sensor alerts you when brushing too hard
My mouth feels so clean!
My kids also had a go at using the Platinum toothbrush... thank goodness for extra brush heads! What they liked best:
* Lightweight
* Quiet
* Felt gentle on their teeth and gums
* Liked when it warned them they were brushing too hard
* The way their teeth felt after brushing
I have a feeling it won't stay in my bathroom for long...

Energy Law
The supply of a reliable, low-cost and clean energy supply for the United States is a key determinant of current and future prosperity. Perhaps as a result, electricity suppliers are among the most heavily regulated of large firms. This regulation is composed of a complex patchwork of overlapping state and federal regulation that is constantly evolving to meet emerging challenges to the energy system. In this course, students will acquire a basic understanding of the law of rate-based regulation of utilities. We will then examine the history of natural gas pipeline regulation in the United States, concluding with the introduction of market competition into US natural gas markets and the advent of shale gas. Next, we will cover the basics of the electricity system, including consumer demand, grid operations, and power plant technologies and economics. We will then revisit cost of service rate regulation as it has been applied in the electricity context. Next we will examine reform of both rate-regulated and wholesale market-based structures, focusing on various attempts to introduce market competition into aspects of the industry and to strengthen incentives for utility investment in energy efficiency. Finally, students will examine various approaches to subsidization of utility scale renewable energy and the growth of distributed energy. Throughout, the course will focus on the sometimes cooperative, sometimes competing, but ever evolving federal and state roles in regulating the supply of electric power. Students will write two 1000 word response papers to questions related to readings and outside speakers in addition to taking a final exam. Elements used in grading: Class participation (20%), written assignments (40%), and final exam (40%).

Recess Delays Decision on SNAP
Photo courtesy Wikipedia Commons/Scrumshus
This morning, Stateline, the daily news service of the Pew Center on the States posted an article by Jake Grovum which suggests that lack of action on the farm bill will delay deep cuts to the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly food stamps), allowing more time to advocate for a circle of protection around nutrition programs.
Here are several salient excerpts:
[T]his week, congressional stalemate over a sweeping farm bill has set back the clock on impending budget cuts that had worried states and safety net advocates around the country.
With Congress' August recess set to begin and little sign of a breakthrough on the farm bill in the near future, it's increasingly likely that deep spending reductions contained in the measure will be put off for at least six months, and maybe even a year.
Safety net advocates are looking to turn Congress' delay to their advantage, making a public case that deep food stamp cuts would pose new problems for the nation's nutrition and health. In May, the latest month for which data is available, more than 46 million people were enrolled in SNAP, up from 28 million just four years ago. "There will continue to be pressures to cut the programs," says Sophie Milam, director of nutrition assistance at Feeding America, "but the need for these programs will continue to be at these historic levels."
The specifics will remain a subject of debate through August and into September. It's still possible Congress could come together on a sweeping farm bill agreement — complete with food stamp cuts — before the current measure expires September 30. Food stamps could also figure into budget negotiations as Congress considers broader spending reductions slated for year's end.
While the summer recess has temporarily delayed action on the farm bill, Congress will take up this issue when it returns in September. Now is the time to contact your representative and senators and let them know that you want them to commit to forming a circle of protection around programs that benefit hungry people.
- Many congresspeople will be holding town hall meetings during the congressional recess. Here are some tips for making your voice heard at those events.
- Bread for the World has published materials to help our members advocate for hungry and poor people. Read about our mini campaign to preserve funding for domestic nutrition programs.

Carlos Tevez has admitted he would be keen on a move to Real Madrid.
Do you believe Tevez will join Real?
Should he join Man Utd or Real Madrid?
Where will he be better off?
Have your say!
He should stay at United and keep his mouth shut for a bit.
I do not believe Real Madrid is the right club for the Argentine hitman.
He will be better off at Manchester United for sure!

Abu-d Dardaa
Abu-d DardaaAbu-d DardaaFrom Alim® Online Early in the morning, Abu-d Dardaa awoke and went straight to his idol which he kept in the best part of his house. He greeted it and made obeisance to it. Then he anointed it with the best perfume from his large shop and put on it a new raiment of beauti ful silk which a merchant had brought to him the day before from Yemen.
When the sun was high in the sky he left his house for his shop. On that day the streets and alleys of Yathrib were crowded with the followers of Muhammad returning from Badr. With them were several prisoners of war. Abu-d Dardaa surveyed the crowds and t hen went up to a Khazraji youth and asked about the fate of Abdullah ibn Rawahah.
"He was put through the most severe tests in the battle," "but he emerged safely…"
Abu-d Dardaa was clearly anxious about his close friend, Abdullah ibn Rawahah. Everyone in Yathrib knew the bond of brotherhood which existed between the two men from the days of Jahiliyyah, before the coming of Islam to Yathrib. When Islam came to the city, Ibn Rawahah embraced it but Abu-d Dardaa rejected it. This however did not rupture the relationship between the two. Abdullah kept on visiting Abu-d Dardaa and tried to make him! see the virtues, the benefits and the excellence of Islam. But with e very passing day, while Abu-d Dardaa remained a mushrik, Abdullah felt more sad and concerned.
Abu-d Dardaa arrived at his shop and sat cross-legged on a high chair. He began trading-buying and selling and giving instructions to his assistants unaware of what was going on at his house. For at that very time, Abdullah ibn Rawahah had gone to the hou se determined on a course of action. There, he saw that the main gate was open. Umm ad-Dardaa was in the courtyard and he said to her:
"As-salaamu alayki – Peace be unto you, servant of God."
"Wa alayka-s salaam – And unto you be peace, O brother of Abu-d Dardaa."
"Where is Abu-d Dardaa?" he asked. "He has gone to his shop. It won't be tong before he returns." "Would you allow me to come in?" "Make yourself at home," she said and went about busying herself with her household chores and looking after her children.
Abdullah ibn Rawahah went to the room where Abu-d Dardaa kept his idol. He took out an adz which he had brought with him and began destroying the idol while saying:
"Isn't everything batil which is worshipped besides Allah?"
When the idol was completely smashed, he left the house. Abu-d Dardaa's wife entered the room shortly afterwards and was aghast at what she saw. She smote her cheeks in anguish and said: "You have brought ruin to me, Ibn Rawahah." When Abu-d Dardaa retur ned home, he saw his wife sitting at the door of the room where he kept his idol. She was weeping loudly and she looked absolutely terrified. "What's wrong with you?" he asked.
"Your brother Abdullah ibn Rawahab visited us in your absence and did with your idols what you see." Abu-d Dardaa looked at the broken idol and was horrified. He was consumed with anger and determined to take revenge. Before long however his anger subside d and thoughts of avenging the idol disappeared. Instead he reflected on what had happened and said to himself:
"If there was any good in this idol, he would have defended himself against any injury."
He then went straight to Abdullah and together they went to the Prophet, peace be on him. There he announced his acceptance of Islam. He was the last person in his district to become a Muslim.
From this time onwards, Abu-d Dardaa devoted himself completely to Islam. Belief in God and His Prophet animated every fibre of his being. He deeply regretted every moment he had spent as a mushrik and the opportunities he had lost to do good. He realize d how much his friends had learnt about siam in the preceding two or three years, how much of the Quran they had memorized and the opportunities they had to devote themselves to God and His Prophet. He made up his mind to expend every effort, day and nigh t to try to make up for what he had missed. Ibadah occupied his days and his nights. His search for knowledge was restless. Much time he spent memorizing the words of the Quran and trying to understand the profundity of its message. When he saw that busin ess and trade disturbed the sweetness of his ibadah and kept him away from the circles of knowledge, he reduced his involvement without hesitation or regret. Someone asked him why he did this and he replied:
"I was a merchant before my pledge to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace. When I became a Muslim, I wanted to combine trade (tijarah) and worship (ibadah) but I did not achieve what I desired. So I abandoned trade and inclined tow ards ibadah.

History of Texas Farm House
Texas Farmhouse
By Carol Davis
Driving along one day on the shortcut from Cat Spring to my family ranch in Fayette County, just a few miles from Ellinger, I glanced at a hay field and noticed an old dilapidated farmhouse, abandoned and porches falling down from neglect, shingled roof falling in. Intrigued by the sight, I went from neighbor to neighbor, trying to find out the owner. I finally found someone who knew, a Gene Ruhmann, living in Clute, Texas, at the time.
Sparing you the boring details, I ended up buying the house for $10 and had it moved to this present site, amongst these liveoaks. As I was searching for the perfect spot, I walked into the woods in this area that was covered thickly with yupon bushes, and said, "This is it," then clearing the land completely of the yupon. Not a tree was cut down to maneuver it into its perfect spot. The house was moved in two pieces, having to cut the back "kitchen" area off to get it down the road. I took the house back to its original state, and finished out the unfinished attic. The beadboard upstairs is from an old church they were tearing down in Taylor, Texas, and it has all the original paints on it. The floors are exactly as I found them. Porches are new, as they were in disrepair.
Enjoy A Piece Of History!

History of Ranch & Houses
Dog Trot, Lehmann House & Writer's Cabin
"Richard Albert Cornelius and family left Prussia in 1850 over dissatisfaction with the government in that country. They cam e to Texas and after living in Industry for a while, they cast their lot with the early settlers of the Cat Spring area about 1860. Here he entered upon farming and also pursued a freighting business. The Cornelius family had seven children. One of these children was Julius Cornelius. (Quoted from the book "THE CAT SPRING STORY") The acreage where the Dog Trot is located, and surrounding acreage, is the property that was owned by Julius Cornelius. The Cozy Loft Suite of the Dog Trot (so-called because the dogs trotted in the breezeway) was the house that Julius Cornelius built. I have no history other than that, and you can see the house with Julius and his wife sitting in front yard of the house in the photo hanging by the front door of the Loft Suite. Also note the framed copy of the registration of their brand in 1872 by Cornelius in Austin County.
John Cornelius (who remained a bachelor), son of Julius Cornelius, owned the property when it was sold sometime in the late 1970's to John Blocker, owner of Blocker Energy in Houston, Aggie Alumni, who has now a building name after him at A↦M. Blocker and his wife Jean cleared and developed the land into a thriving Brangus Ranch, and he would show and sell his cattle in the "Show Barn." He purportedly paid a million dollars for one of his bulls, and there is a photo of the bull in the Gift Shop at the Show Barn.
The Enchanted Lake and gazebo with bridges was purportedly made for the wedding of Jean's daughter. Blocker also made Needle Lake & Lehmann Lake and stocked them with bass. Today the Enchanted Lake with the gazebo is the scene of many wonderful weddings held here at BlissWood.
The Lehmann House (so named after my family name Lehmann) was moved by the Blockers from Hall Road in Cat Spring, and it was built and owned by Bernita Dittmar's parents sometime around the turn of the century 1900. Bernita, a native of Cat Spring, was born in the bedroom to the right as you enter. Bernita worked at CrossRoads in Cat Spring for 40 years, and she retired in 2005, sold her family land, and I bought the house that she and her husband built in the "50's, the Dittmar House, now located at BlissWood.
Many of the furnishings in the Lehmann House are my family's furniture that I grew up with. The dining farm table was built by my grandfather, and I ate many family meals at that table, as we always shared breakfast, dinner and supper together as a family. Mother always had the table covered in "oilcloth."
The Writer's Cabin (so named in honor of John Bradshaw), was a hunter's shack, as the Cornelius family allowed deer hunting many moons ago, and Jean Blocker renovated it and converted it into a weekend guest cabin. The desk is an old Confederate desk that the Army carried with them on their maneuvers. It is two pieces, so it was easier to transport.
In 1985 John Blocker sold the ranch to John Bradshaw, author/lecturer, who loved to catch big bass in the lakes and would come here for respite and to write.
In 2000 I became the delighted owner of John Bradshaw's property, thus becoming only the fourth owner of the property since its development in the 1830's. This acreage adjoined the original 85 acres (where the Texas Farmhouse, Log Cabin & Main Ranch House are located) that I purchased in 1995 from the widow of Randall Barclay, who founded Randall's Grocery Store, beginning with one store, and the rest is history. He took on a partner, his best friend, Onstad, and when Onstad had a son, he named him Randall Onstad, who was the last owner of Randall's before it was sold to Safeway.

The Two-Week Wait
For those unfamiliar with the term, the two-week wait is the time between ovulation and the beginning of a woman's next period. For women who are not trying to get pregnant, the two-week wait is as little noted as any other time of the month. For women who are trying to conceive, especially those who have been trying for a while, the two-week wait can seem like forever.
Susan Leonard, a licensed professional counselor and marriage and family therapist, works with infertile couples. A client once told her, "When you're thinking and obsessing and hoping during that two-week wait, what you're hoping is that you'll soon join a different population, the population of the pregnant, while worrying that you just might not."
Looking for Symptoms?
A common thread on fertility discussion boards is women asking other women what this twinge or that bloat or this headache means. Even physical signs that seem like they couldn't possibly be related to pregnancy are often discussed in great depth. This is typical, Leonard says, noting that during the wait women do tend to obsess over every twinge, ache, and cramp. She says some of this is a natural outgrowth of the strong, instinctive desire for motherhood, but for women undergoing fertility treatment, it's also a time when the distractions and actions of trying to conceive come to a full stop.
"In IVF [in vitro fertilization], for the first two weeks there is something going on virtually every day leading up to the big moment of the transfer," Leonard says. "As part of that activity, most women see a doctor or nurse every day. Then everything stops. They go from all of that activity to just waiting and there's nothing concrete they can do to guarantee success. It's not unusual for patients to describe a sense of powerlessness."
Ways to Pass the Time
Leonard suggests activities that focus on the quest to become pregnant, but in a positive, nurturing manner that are specific to conception. For example:
- If there are mind/body workshops in your area, try one. If not, become familiar with Dr. Alice Domar's mind/body philosophies and techniques for use during your entire cycle. These are explained in Domar's book, Conquering Infertility: Dr. Alice Domar's Mind/Body Guide to Enhancing Fertility and Coping with Infertility.
- Try guided meditations specific to fertility and conception, such as Jennifer Bloome's CD series Imagery and Meditations for support of a Healthy Cycle.
- Positive thinking is important, but Leonard does warn against absolute, blind optimism simply because any disappointments may be magnified. However, positive imagery in general may give you a feeling of control that can help you through that difficult two weeks.
- Visit online discussion groups to vent and talk with others going through the same thing.

CRESTVIEW — After a year hiatus, the Loomis Bros. Circuswill return to Crestview Nov. 9-11 at Old Spanish Trail Park. Performances are 4:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Nov. 9; 1, 4 and 7 p.m. Nov. 10; and 3 p.m. Nov. 11.
Advance tickets cost $10 at several locations including Cooney Island restaurant and Mickey's Grocery and Grill in Baker. Tickets cost $15 at the gate. Military members get a 10 percent discount. Proceeds go to the Main Street Crestview Association, event sponsor.
"It's a more traditional family circus … there is going to be something for all ages," owner and ringmaster Justin Loomis said. "We have elephants, tigers and horses that will perform tricks during each performance."
One elephant particularly should garner some attention.
"Okha is the only elephant in North America that can walk on a ball," Loomis said.
Specialty acts include an Argentinean family who can juggle with their feet and a comedy act from Melvino the clown.
Kids can ride on elephants one hour before each show, Loomis said. Food and drinks will also be available.
Additionally, three elephants and clowns from the show will appear at the Veterans Day parade 10 a.m. Nov. 10 on Main Street.
Loomis has continued a family tradition handed down from his father, Arnold. Since he was 7, Justin has been involved in the circus business. His father also helped start the Loomis Bros. Circus in 1997.
Out of 10 siblings, three have stayed with the business.
"At one point, they were all involved in the circus," Loomis said, adding that the circus tours Florida, Alabama and Georgia.
"We feel more at home in smaller communities," Loomis said. "That's why I always look forward coming to Crestview.

The price says entry level. The sound says anything but.
The Taylor 114e Sapele/Spruce Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar is a grand auditorium-sized acoustic-electric guitar that will change your expectations about what a serious entry-level guitar can be. The 114e has a solid Sitka spruce top with sapele laminate back and sides. Other features include the Taylor ES-T undersaddle transducer pickup that lets your 114ce guitar be heard in any venue, tusq nut and saddle, plastic soundhole rosette, .
Sitka spruce
As a guitar soundboard, or top, Sitka spruce is the tonewood standard of the modern era. It's used on 85-90 percent of the guitars that Taylor makes. Its combination of strength and elasticity translates into a broad dynamic range, yielding crisp articulation and allowing for everything from aggressive strumming and flatpicking to fingerpicking. Sitka spruce is Bob Taylor's personal favorite for an all-around great guitar.
Grand Auditorium (GA)
The GA is Taylor's most versatile and popular shape, excelling at light-touch fingerstyle to full-blown strumming. Great for mic'ing and recording, the GA's balanced mid-range and bright tone exemplify the Taylor voice.
ES-T Under-Saddle Transducer
The ES-T is a single-source, under-saddle transducer with individual elements for each string. It features an onboard preamp and the same active controls found on the full ES. Featuring a custom-voiced EQ and dynamic response, the system is powered by a 9-volt battery, with a battery life LED power indicator (which is lit when the battery is being used). The pickup also has a Phase switch for feedback control, which is located on the preamp board inside the soundhole.
Includes gig bag.

buy two mugs a while ago, I would like to buy more, I love the design
I love the mug so much. Love the design ! Now it is one of my favorite mug to use when I need to drink a cup of coffee or chocolate.
When I saw this cup I had to have it... so cool looking with the cork bottom. The coffee does not stay hot for more then a few minutes and the lid does not fit properly. They need to put some kind of lining in the cup to keep beverages from cooling down so fast. I have had this for a few months now.... as soon as they hit the shelf I had it. I have used it maybe 5 times. I do not even know where it is now... shoved back in a corner somewhere I suppose.
Just bought this mug because it looks so cool and thought it would hold the heat well with the lid and all. Well, the cup gets hot to hold and loses the heat quickly. I love the look, the cork bottom, and the large drinking hole... just doesn't keep the beverage hot!
The quality of the cup was great.
Only thing that need to improve was the design of the lid which should be close tight to prevent dust or small insect fall into the black cup.
Lid doesn't fit well on either black or white mug so coffee slurps out and does not stay hot
This mug looks great. But there are two major problems:
1. Coffee cools quickly. The reason is obvious--the sides of the mug feel very warm, so clearly the heat is being transferred through the wall of the mug, even with the lid in place.
2. The feel of the mug against the lips is not ideal. This morning I dribbled coffee on my jeans as I was sipping. This does not happen with other cups and mugs.
Aside from those things, there is a slight learning curve to attaching the lid: You have to put the tab area of the lid inside the rim, then press down on the pouring area to lock it into place. But that is easily mastered.
This is really well designed from size the way the retaining lid fits and cork bottom to prevent slippage and drips from collecting under it, the cup does not retain any heat if anything it exhausts the heat of the coffee. For those that like room temperature coffee I recommend it.
An wxcellant Father's Day Gift! Enjoying a fresh cup of roasted dark beans. Looking forward to the use of this excellant mig.
I just ran out to buy this cause my mugs keep being stollen at work. I love the cork bottom, dunno how long it'll last with washing and heavy use though. Not near as heavy as you'd think but that doesn't bother me too much. I love the lid topper, coworkers tend to knock me around so hopefully this will help out so my shirts don't become stained as often

Before cops caught murder suspect Alex Gallegos Wednesday evening, police said he broke into at least two Taylor Ranch homes.
A mother and her 4-year-old son were inside one of those homes on Staunton Place NW.
He didn't want to go on camera, but the homeowner showed us where the intruder broke in through a front window. There was a blood stain on the carpet.
He said his wife was busy cleaning and didn't know the man had broken in until after he ran out the back door.
"She came and hugged me, and told me that she heard a noise in the front window, and when she went to see what happened, she saw the glass on the floor with blood," said neighbor Alida Davila-Larrichio.
The homeowner said the intruder didn't hurt his wife or son, but they are so shaken up, they can't sleep at the home anymore.
"She ran and grabbed her child, and ran to look for help in the next house," said Davila-Larrichio.
Cleaning trucks were parked outside the house next door Thursday morning.
That homeowner didn't want to talk to KOB on camera, but told us she's busy cleaning up a bloody mess inside.
Police said they found an injured Gallegos hiding inside a closet after he also broke into that house.
"For this to happen right here, two homes away, is really scary," said Davila-Larrichio.
Police tell us all that blood was from a gunshot wound Gallegos sustained as he tried to run away from police.

|QB Kevin Decker
|CAA Offensive Player of Year
RICHMOND, Va. – University of New Hampshire senior quarterback Kevin Decker (Armonk, N.Y.) has been named the Colonial Athletic Association Football Offensive Player of the Year in voting conducted among the 11 league head coaches. Decker becomes the fourth student-athlete in school history to earn this distinction.
Decker leads the league in total offense/game (317.2 yards/fifth in FCS), passing yards/game (279.3/10th in FCS), pass efficiency (154.3/sixth in FCS), points responsible for/game (17.09/fifth in FCS) and TD passes (20). The first-year starter has completed 244 of 350 passes (69.7 percent) while rushing 121 times for 417 yards and a team-leading nine touchdowns. As just the fourth quarterback in school history to eclipse 3,000 passing yards in a season, Decker's 3,072 passing yards rank fifth in University single-season history, and he is within 246 passing yards of the No. 2 spot. His 3,951 career passing yards place him 10th all-time at UNH.
Decker, fellow co-captain Brian McNally (Cornwall, N.Y.) and junior linebacker Matt Evans (Hanover, Mass.) were named to the All-CAA Football First Team. Wide receiver R.J. Harris (Odenton, Md.), offensive lineman Ricky Archer (The Plains, Va.) and place kicker Mike MacArthur (North Hampton, N.H.) garnered All-CAA Second Team honors, while wide receiver Joey Orlando (Bethlehem, Pa.) and offensive lineman Seamus O'Neill (Manchester, N.H.) were tabbed to the All-CAA Third Team.
McNally, a member of the CAA Preseason All-Conference Team, garners All-CAA First Team honors for the second straight year. The 2008 CAA Defensive Rookie of the Year is ranked second in the conference with 7.5 sacks and paces the Wildcats with 11 tackles for loss. The defensive end is on the Buck Buchanan Award Watch List for the top defensive player in the FCS, he was named to the College Sporting News Preseason All-America Team, The Sports Network/Fathead.com Preseason All-America Second Team, Phil Steele's Preseason All-American Second Team and the College Football Performance Awards (CFPA) FCS Watch List.
|LB Matt Evans
|All-CAA First Team
Evans, the nation's leader in total tackles (154), tackles/game (14.0), solo tackles (88) and solo tackles/game (8.0), receives All-CAA First Team recognition for the first time in his career. The middle linebacker was a preseason all-conference selection following a berth on the 2010 All-CAA Second Team. The junior, who is on the Buck Buchanan Award Watch List, is three tackles shy of besting his career high and the school's No. 2 spot in single-season tackles, plus he is currently ranked sixth all-time at the University with 324 stops, a mere seven tackles away from cracking the top five. He is a five-time CAA Defensive Player of the Week, including twice this season following a career-high, 24-tackle game at Lehigh on Sept. 10 and a 13-tackle, two-forced fumble performance in the Colonial Clash victory against Massachusetts on Oct. 22. His preseason accolades included placement on the College Sporting News All-America Team, The Sports Network/Fathead.com All-America First Team, Phil Steele's Preseason All-American First Team and the College Sports Madness All-America First Team.
Harris, a two-time CAA Rookie of the Week, lands on the all-conference second team after posting four 100-yard receiving games, amassing 46 receptions for a team-best 658 yards and a CAA-leading seven touchdown catches in 10 games. His 65.8 receiving yards/game are ranked fifth in the CAA, his 4.6 receptions/game are sixth-best in the league and he is No. 10 in scoring among non-kickers at 4.8 points/game.
Archer, a sophomore, has started all 13 games at right guard for an offense that is averaging a CAA-leading 444.1 yards of total offense, ranked eighth in the nation.
Fellow sophomore MacArthur earns All-CAA Second Team honors after notching a spot on the third team as a freshman in '10. The Granite State native is 14-for-17 (82.4 percent) in field goal kicking, which is No. 2 in the league, and he is fourth in the league in PAT kicking percentage (95.0) with 38 conversions in 40 attempts.
Orlando's 49 receptions lead all UNH receivers (sixth in CAA), and he is seventh in the league with 4.5 catches/game. The durable junior is the only Wildcat WR to start all 13 games, make at least one reception in every game and he's made multiple receptions in 13 of his last 14 games.

LightSquared plans to unveil a prototype global positioning device designed to be compatible with its planned nationwide wireless network, a company executive said on Wednesday that the company
Jeff Carlisle, vice president of public policy and regulatory affairs for LightSquared, said the wireless startup had partnered with an unidentified GPS manufacturer to build a test receiver. That receiver, Carlisle told reporters in a conference call, will help prove that GPS and LightSquared can coexist.
The device, to be officially revealed next week, is a high-precision receiver and will be compatible with LightSquared's revised operating plan, which uses spectrum further away from GPS bands. The receiver will not solve the interference between GPS and LightSqaured's transmissions on higher bands.
GPS manufacturers have argued that it is impossible to build a receiver that will allow the two systems to exist together, and Jim Kirkland, vice president of Trimble and a founding member of the Coalition to Save Our GPS, said any receiver developed by LightSquared would be limited.
"There are two broad and challenging issues that must be solved," Kirkland said in an e-mail statement. "One is that there are many kinds of high-precision GPS devices engineered to support a wide variety of uses, including agriculture, construction, aviation and the many scientific and safety-of-life applications described at last week's House Science Committee hearing. So, a single prototype has very limited relevance to the substantial interference issues affecting this whole range of devices."
The second issue, Kirkland said, is that a new receiver doesn't help existing devices that will experience interference. "LightSquared must take responsibility for solving both problems," he said.
On Thursday, the House Armed Services Committee will hear testimony from a range of government officials on how LightSqaured's plans could affect national security uses of GPS.

Divergent Book and Movie Fansite
Allegiant author and BEA keynote speaker, Veronica Roth, created quite a splash at the large annual Book Expo America that took place last week in New York. Veronica not only attended, but signed limited edition Allegiant posters for attendees of the book festival. Here are all the photos, interviews, and transcripts from everything Divergent related from BEA 2013.
Allegiant posters were HUGE. Lifesize and larger!. Check out Page to Premiere writer Kimmy West standing with one!
Veronica Roth at the panel as speaker:
Divergent Examiner transcribed Veronica's full speech, here is a excerpt pertaining to Divergent fans:
My readers have helped me to end my reading drought because I love how they read. I love how they remember every detail and ask me about the characters and what will happen to them and what they meant when they said what they said on Page 45 or what I meant by making them say that horrible thing they said on Page 45.
They care about the story. The story is real for them because they're able to immerse themselves completely, and they want to tell you about all the things they like, whether it's a comic book or Ernest Hemingway or whatever lies between. The more like them I become, the more I'm able to say I'm here to learn and I want to love this book and see the value in it, the more I'm able to reclaim my love of reading and the more different kinds of books I'm able to appreciate. Read more.
Check out the posters, t-shirts, and tote bags that lucky Divergent fans received! I'm so jealous!!
Here are some photos of Veronica signing Allegiant posters for fans:
BEA Livestream also got an exclusive interview with Veronica after her author breakfast at the event. She talks a little about Allegiant. Veronica says, "you get to see what's beyond the fence."
Thanks to DivergentFansUK for converting this to youtube to be able to share.

Re: Suse 10.2: Can't install nVidia drivers. Tried Everything.
I've tried for 13 hours (searching thousands of webpages) to install the nVidia drivers on OpenSuse 10.2. In a few minutes I'm going to install another OS... just letting people know what my problem was.
#1- Recommended Method: Yast
Installing via Yast doesn't work. The kernel module is installed, but cannot be mod-probed.
I just installed five machines with the yast method , from the same source in one hour.
All worked but one: NVDIA driver indeed.
Mine is CPU: AMD-64 X2 :MB: Asus MN2e Vidoecard: asus card with 7300 chipset.
The nvidia.ko has the right version number (same as kernel) but does not load.
Error message from X :
engine not found (after the nvidia.ko is loaded)
and later :
No screens.
abort back to terminal screen
Removing the driver ( de install with yast) makes all work
Maybe you ventilate your method and see where you go wrong..
Mention versions of CPU Motherboard card
Installation method , installation source..
You are wrong if you say there is nothing to update : if your source is a CD or dvd image.. Right if you did a network install : but even than there is an update in the process

Stand-Up New York Comedy Club
UPPER WEST SIDE. In between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue stands the red brick Stand-Up New York, one of the Upper West Side's premiere live comedy venues. Arranged like the quintessential comedy club, Stand-Up tends to get crowded as the weekend approaches, especially if the headliner is well known. The club's only drawbacks: the bathrooms are located rather inconveniently downstairs, and there is a two-drink minimum.

|About these ratings
On the eastern shores of Rhodes, Lindos is, at first glance, a whitewashed town with overpriced cafés and cheap tourist shops. Many of its streets and parking lots are lined with tour buses. There is even a claustrophobic beach, dotted with white umbrellas and squeezed in a tight cove. But while your arrival to this over-commercialized village might make you question why you've come, your patience will be well worth it.
Your reward: The Acropolis of Lindos.
These awe-inspiring ruins feature huge Hellenistic pillars surrounded by medieval fortifications, dating back to when this city was an important center of commerce for Rhodes. Inside the acropolis you'll find the rugged Castle of the Knights of St. John (built to safeguard the city) and the stately and beautiful Doric Temple of Athena Lindia (built for religious purposes). One on TripAdvisor attests the "acropolis is definitely worth seeing. Apart from its historical attractiveness, the view from the top is amazing. You can see the whole Lindos city and the bays around Lindos."
You can drive yourself to Lindos or take a public bus; click on the time schedule for more details. You can also sign up for privately run daytrips when you're in Rhodes Town or Faliraki. Admission to the Acropolis of Lindos is €6 EUR (about $8.50 USD). The acropolis is open from 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. from November through March with extended hours in the summer. For more information, check out the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Tourism's website.

STANFORD, Calif.-----Eighth-ranked Georgia led after each of the first two rotations, but No. 9 Stanford rallied to beat the Gym Dogs, 196.325-196.150, Sunday at Maples Pavilion.
Georgia gymnasts placed first on three events, including a meet-high 9.925 on bars by Chelsea Davis, while Lindsey Cheek scored 9.9s on vault and bars for the second straight meet. The Gym Dogs were competing for the second time this weekend, following a 196.500 in the season-opener at Oklahoma on Friday.
"We knew this weekend would be tough," said UGA coach Danna Durante. "There were some good things that came out of today, but floor has to be better. We beat them on vault and bars, and beam was very close. Floor was the big difference, so that's the thing that absolutely has to get better. I thought we were in a better spot than last year when we started, and I still think we are, but we just need to be tougher and stronger."
Georgia (0-2) opened with a 49.325 behind a 9.925 by Davis as the anchor and a second straight 9.9 by Cheek in the No. 4 spot. Stanford scored a 48.775 on vault.
The Gym Dogs maintained their lead in the second rotation with a 49.0 vault, while Stanford posted a 49.1 on bars. Cheek again scored a 9.9 to place first, and UGA led at the halfway point 98.325-97.875.
Stanford (4-0) grabbed the lead by outscoring the Gym Dogs 49.200-48.675 in the third rotation. Brandie Jay was UGA's top floor performer with a 9.85.
In the fourth rotation, the Cardinal used a 49.25 on floor to hold off the Gym Dogs' 49.15 on beam. Mary Beth Box, Cheek and Kaylan Earls each scored a 9.875 to tie for first.
This was Georgia's second top-10 opponent to start the season, following the meet at No. 3 Oklahoma. Four of the Gym Dogs' first five opponents were ranked in the preseason top-10.
Georgia will be back in action Friday against No. 5 LSU at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available for purchase on georgiadogs.com or by calling the UGA Ticket Office at 1-877-541-1231.

American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, May 17, 2013 Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel discussed the defense relationship between the United States and Turkey with Turkish officials in a Pentagon meeting today, Pentagon Press Secretary George Little said.
In a statement summarizing the meeting, Little said Hagel met with Defense Minister Ismet Yilmaz, Foreign Affairs Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu and Hakan Fidan, undersecretary of Turkey's National Intelligence Organization.
In addition to the bilateral defense relationship, Little said, the meeting included discussion of continued opportunities for military-to-military partnership.
Hagel also reaffirmed the U.S. commitment to Turkey as a strong NATO ally, and he conveyed strong U.S. support of Turkey's security interests, including the ongoing NATO deployment of Patriot missiles to southern Turkey, he added.
"The leaders spoke at length about regional security issues, particularly the two countries' shared concerns over the complex threats in Syria," Little said. "They reaffirmed their efforts to work with allies and partners to support an inclusive transition that guarantees the Syrian people universal rights."
