Erin Machado, gymnastics
Erin, a senior from Swansea, Mass., won the floor exercise individual title to help the University of New Hampshire gymnastics team capture the 19th annual EAGL Championship that was held March 22 at UNH's Whittemore Center. The senior captain tied with two other gymnasts with a winning mark and career high of 9.900.
Erin is the second Wildcat to capture first place in floor exercise at the EAGL Championship; the only other 'Cat to earn that distinction was Amy Roberts in 1998. Erin was named to the All-Tournament First Team for her performance.
Earlier in the week, Erin was named to the EAGL All-Academic Team for the fourth consecutive year and was also an All-EAGL First Team selection on floor exercise with a Regional Qualifying Score (RQS) of 9.855, which ranked fourth in the league.
Erin established a career high of 9.875 Jan. 19 at Lundholm Gym against Minnesota, Brown and Yale; she duplicated that score Mach 3 at George Washington in a meet that also included Maryland. Including those two meets, the event specialist was the top 'Cat on floor exercise seven times in 11 regular-season meets. And of those seven meets, Erin was the top overall floor performer twice – Feb. 8 at Yale and March 14 vs. Air Force; both times, she tallied a 9.850.
Last year as a junior, Erin took first place in the floor exercise in a meet against Temple and Brown with a 9.825 score. She recorded a season high of 9.850 twice – against Rutgers in the season opener and then a quad-meet at Maryland with N.C. State and Towson. Erin also posted a season-high 9.800 on the balance beam vs. N.C. State and then she matched that the following week vs. Temple and Brown.
Justin Agosta, men's ice hockey
Justin, a senior from East Meadow, N.Y., helped lead the 18th-ranked UNH men's ice hockey team advance to the Hockey East Championship title game for the first time since 2007 when he scored the game-winning goal vs. ninth-ranked Providence College in a March 21 semifinal game at TD Garden in Boston.
The defenseman scored his sixth goal of the season to give UNH a 2-0 lead at 13:31 of the second period in the 3-1 win against the Friars. Justin finished that game and the championship weekend with a plus/minus rating of +1.
Justin's season highlights included a career-high two goals against UMass (Nov. 3) and personal-best three assists Feb. 14 vs. Boston U. He also tallied multiple assists against Harvard, Dartmouth and Notre Dame, and he finished with two points on a goal and an assist in a March 15 Hockey East quarterfinal game vs. then-No. 14 Northeastern.
In 41 games this season, Justin tallied six goals and 20 assists for 26 points. He ranked second among UNH defensemen in all three of those statistics. Justin has compiled nine goals and 36 assists for 45 points in 116 career games.

Partnership announced to bring 2014 state title football games to UNH
The UNH department of athletics and the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association (NHIAA) announced Monday a partnership that will bring all three New Hampshire state high school football championship games to Cowell Stadium on Nov. 22, 2014.
The Super Saturday (Nov. 22) of NHIAA football championship games will consist of the Division III final at 11 a.m., the Division II title matchup at 2:30 p.m. and the Division I championship game under the lights at 6 p.m. Tickets will be sold on game day at the Cowell Stadium ticket office.
NHIAA football championships, which had been contested at the home field of the highest remaining seed, join NHIAA Division I and II boys' basketball championships and D-I and D-II swimming championships that are currently decided on the UNH campus.
With a focus on meeting its strategic priorities, UNH is moving forward with fundraising and planning for a new athletic complex that will benefit the University, Durham and the Seacoast region, and the state. Athletic facilities and venues, including a new stadium, were identified as a priority in the campus' master plan to improve recruitment, student satisfaction, and overall visibility in an increasingly competitive marketplace.
Expected to cost $25 million and open in late 2015, the facility, which is referred to as the West Stadium, will offer increased and improved seating, state-of-the art broadcast and WiFi capability, concessions, restrooms, and a special student section. The original concrete section of the current East Side facility dates to the 1930s.
The new athletic complex will offer increased seating capacity of more than 10,000, a new home side on the opposite side of the existing field, and gathering and social spaces.
In an announcement made Feb. 6 by the America East conference, UNH had the highest number of student-athletes (114) recognized on the America East Fall 2013 Honor Roll; it marked the fifth consecutive fall semester New Hampshire accomplished the feat.
UNH's women's cross country team had the highest percentage of honor roll recipients from a single team, with 33 of a possible 35 (94.3%) student-athletes recognized. Fifteen of those Wildcats received distinction on the Commissioner's Honor Roll (3.50 or higher gpa).
The UNH volleyball team placed 13 of 16 (81.3%) student-athletes on the Honor Roll and eight made the grade for the Commissioner's Honor Roll. The men's cross country had the next highest percentage among UNH teams at 76% (19 of 25 runners) and was followed closely by men's soccer at 73.3% (22 of 30). In women's soccer, 10 of the 15 'Cats who made the Honor Roll also made the Commissioner's Roll and half of the 12 field hockey student-athletes on the Honor Roll were also on the Commissioner's Roll.
Overall, UNH boasted 73.1% of its student-athletes on the Honor Roll, and 46.5% of those 'Cats made the Commissioner's Roll.
The University of New Hampshire amassed 133 points in the final fall Division I Learfield Sports Directors' Cup standings to rank 41st of 148 teams that earned points (our of 314 Div. I schools overall). UNH is the highest ranked team in the America East conference as well as fourth best among both FCS and New England schools.
New Hampshire recorded points in three of a possible eight fall sports with NCAA tournament appearances in field hockey, football and volleyball. The Wildcats earned 83 points by virtue of third place in FCS football as well as 25 points in both field hockey (ninth place) and volleyball (33rd place).

The 'Cats earned all of its men's points on the football team's NCAA semifinal appearance; field hockey and volleyball both earned a point for the women by advancing to the NCAA tournament.

Do you feel its ok for a guy to hit a girl who just wont stop hitting him even after trying to reason?
You have to protect yourself. I think it is excusable in situations where the man is being abused. You have to get her off of you. Don't get me wrong, it does not give you the right to beat the crap out of her, but just enough to get her off of you. This is coming form a female who was in an abusive marriage.
Fair is fair, if she is attacking you, you have the right to defend yourself.
Either leave or call the cops and make sure you some kind of physical evidence to support your story. DV works both ways.

I had a squabble with a girlfriend(bi-polar), she chomped down on my chest, huge bite mark. All I did was shove her off of me. Law showed up, I had the bite mark, she didnt have ****, off to gray bar with her. I bundled up her kids, dropped them off at her mom's. Went back, packed my **** and unassed. Never went back.
Thought this gal had one coming straight for my kidnkeys. But I had a meat cleaver in my jacket, am wouldn't turn my back to her. So the night ended in ***** an giggles.
No.

He needs to call the cops, press charges, then either put her out (if it's his place) or leave (if it's hers).

Nobody deserves to get beat up, ok?
Walk off, or drive off, or even just drive to the closest police substation, if her crazy a$$ chases him there it'll make life easier.
Two wrongs don't make a right. No one should be hitting anyone.
I walk away until the time when they behave like a mature person. Let them finish their tantrum alone, I am no ones punching bag.
Keep hitting? Like he just let her keep hitting? Uh ya then he's dumb and deserves it!
No, because the dumb **** should have left after the first time she hit him. You know, like what most sensible women do when a man hits them.
I guess you know a lot of suicidally idiotic women and a lot of really stupid men then.
......So why give me sh*t?

kawasaki -no fire= deere lx172
I bought a used lx172 deere lawn tractor with a fs420v as10 kawasaki motor (14hp). It has no fire. I am a small engine mechanic, but this one has stumped me so far.
The flywheel key is good. The keyways on both the crankshaft and the flywheel are good.
I replaced the coil (magneto) and electronic ignition (ignitor/excitor) with new, then I tested with a spark tester many different ways:
1: Kill/ignitor wire removed from coil.
2: Kill wire on coil, but wire from ignitor to ignition switch disconnected.
3: Did tests with coil spade grounded to see if it was a "ground to fire" coil (like some old OMC coils).
4: Tested with white wire grounded before the ignitor and coil. This wire was disconnected from the ignition switch when tested.
Actually, there is a miniscule amount of fire (not enough to ignite fuel in motor) when kill wire is disconnected from the coil.
Fuel --- I have primed to test (through carb and put fuel in cylinder)
Compression ----- 90 psi
Does the white wire going from the ignition switch to the ignitor(electronic ignition) and then to the coil require some voltage to produce ignition in this motor? Has anyone ever had to change the flywheel magnet/s or flywheel?
If anyone has encountered this problem, please advise.
Thanks, Dennis
find the flat 3 wire connector running from the engine to the wiring harness. unplug it. you've now isolated the ignition from the machine.
check your spark plug cap. some of them had a resistor built into them and they go bad sometimes.
make sure they gave you the right coil.
i had a lx come in the shop with the same condition.
customer had installed a new style coil that has the ignitor built into it. they will not work on an external ignitor equipped engine unless you change the flywheel.
compare the old coil to the new. if the new one has a square looking end where the ground terminal is it won't work.
make sure the coil is installed in the proper direction.
all the white wire is is a ground once it leaves the ignitor. if any kind of voltage is applied it will fry the ignitor and coil.
Is it electric start only? Or is there a recoil start as well. Like you I'd disconnect all the wire to the switch and any cutout so it's a bare coil/ignitor.
Is the coil/flywheel gap good, set to thickness of business card. Make sure both pickups on the coil are equally spaced. Don't forget these electronic units need the equal of 300rpm to spark enough to fire the fuel. Is the starter lazy? If there's a recoil fitted use this to spin the engine.
Now I'm off to think of other possibilities.
Good luck Phil
kawasaki - no fire
First, thanks for your help.
I disconnected the wiring between the key switch (ignition switch)and the electronic ignition (ignitor/excitor). The disconnect is just before the excitor and this isolates the excitor and the coil/magneto.
I removed the spark plug cap (exposing a spring device for the spark plug ). I found no indication of a resistor.
The coil I purchased was from Tulsa (Oklahoma) Warehouse. The parts are probably from Stens. The cosmetics are the same (no square receptical). The fire/lack of fire is the same with the old coil and ignitor as with the new coil and new ignitor.
The Ignitor is Deere #131398. The current # after 73484, 128800, & 131198.
I installed the coil in the correct direction.
The white wire is the wire I disconnected first. I disconnected it between the Ignitor and the key switch (ignition switch). This totally isolates the igntor and the coil from all other electrical connections.
_____Just for grins, I modified a 12hp briggs coil to mount on the Kawasaki. I got the same result: Extremely weak fire. I did not connect the excitor to the briggs coil. I realize the magnet setup is not similar on the flywheel of a bs and a kawasaki.
In my experience, It is not likely that I get the same identical result from a defective part. So, I trust my new coil and new ignitor.
Just to recap other. I pulled the flywheel. The key and keyways are good. The difficulty of removing the flysheel assures me that no one has removed it recently.
Thanks again
--------Remember any advise that may be helpful is appreciated ---------
kawasaki lx172 no fire
It is electrc start only.
I disconnected all wiring up to the ignitor(electronic ignition) and coil(magneto).
I used my business cards for the coil/flywheel gap on 1ld coil 2:new coil 3:modified briggs coil (I did this for grins knowin the fly magnet was wrong for bs magneto)
Although I don't know if I am turnin 300rpm, the starter is new; the battery is strong and I could only wish my old truck would turn this fast. I am testing the ignition with the spark plug removed with no/extremely weak fire.
Thank you Phil
------------I'm open to advise, thanks everyone--------------
i've never had to replace a kawi flywheel because of bad magnets, yet. that doesn't mean they aren't bad though.
the magnets on almost all flywheels are pretty tough, but look and see if there's hammer marks on them.
the ignitor number seems correct, but i can't verify that until i go to work mon.
did the coil you bought have a deere or kawi equivalent number? iirc the deere number is am109209 but i can't check that either until mon.
since you posted the type and spec i can get the deere and kawi numbers mon. so you can compare.
about the only thing to check before replacing the flywheel if all numbers are good is the white wire where it goes from the coil to the ignitor. maybe it's broken inside or grounded where it runs through the blower housing.
eta.. are you using a spark checker or spark plug?
some spark checkers do go bad (don't ask me how i know) and some plugs are bad out of the box.
kawasaki no fire
In my shop we did at least 5,000 ignition repairs withou a single bad flywheel.
There is magnetism on the fwheel.
There are 2 screws attaching the mag to the fwheel. It appears that the magnet is glued also.
I am sure the excitor is the correct number. A short test on the excitor is with a ohm meter. When the ohm polarity is reversed from the spade(connector) to the body, there is a different resistance indicating that it is not toasted.
The coil. I got it from Tulsa Warehouse (Oklahoma). I found the kawa # on internet and googled. I assume that this coil was routed through Stens or other aftermarket.
Hey, if you have time Monday --- great, But if your shop is like mine was, then Tue or Wed would be better.
I ohm'd the wire from the ignitor to the coil. I had not thought of that, but, it is ok.
My tests on the ignition.
1: used spark tester; no visible fire
2: used spark plug; grouned plug to engine block, no fire across gap
3: bare spark plug wire to block; barely fire (if touching block)
All tests will only show fire if spark plug wire is touching block. All connections are clean.
kawa deere #s fc420va22618 fou20vas10 lx172
i can probably check them monday. it's gonna be hot again, and i can do it on break.
it's gotta be something simple we're overlooking. i've run into a few jobs where i overlooked something simple only to discover it a couple of hours and a disassembled machine later.
Replace the plug - might be bad internally. (Can't hurt)

If there was a time since 2010 that Matthew A. Doheny wasnt running for Congress, it was short the time it takes to drive a few miles, a few turns from the Italian-American Civic Association on Bellew Avenue, where he had just conceded to Rep. William L. Owens in his race for Congress in November 2010, to his home on Paddock Street.
His brief respite ended shortly after 2 a.m. that same day with a phone call from one his mentors.
Get up and call everybody you know tomorrow, former Rep. David OB. Martin, R-Canton, told him, Mr. Doheny recalls.
That was good advice, Mr. Doheny says now.
Sure, he did a bit of soul-searching about whether to run again. But the answer was probably clear to most of the people he called that next morning.
Thats really how 2012 got started, Mr. Doheny said. The day after.
The road to a rematch which has included the announcements, the fundraisers, the hires, the endorsements, every mile marker hit with the analytical precision of a man who has been on this road before, who has been on this road for years will take another turn Tuesday. Kellie A. Greene, an insurgent candidate who questions Mr. Dohenys principles and conservative mettle, will try to upend all of his well-laid plans by winning the GOP primary.
The task at hand for Mr. Doheny, the heavy favorite, is simple enough: convince Republican voters that the conservative movement must travel together; that the Republican Party and the right-leaning voters in the district must get behind the candidate who has the resources and the third-party lines to defeat Mr. Owens; that that candidate is him.
In the north countrys congressional race, past is prologue. In 2009 and again in 2010, two registered Republicans were on the ballot against Mr. Owens. One was on the Conservative Party line, the other was on the Republican Party line. Both times, the split helped deliver a historically GOP-dominated district to Mr. Owens.
This time around, if Mr. Doheny wins, all three lines will belong to one candidate. But some conservatives in the district have yet to come into the fold. At least some have raised issues of character.
In 2004, Mr. Doheny was charged twice with boating while intoxicated, a fact that he voluntarily disclosed during his 2010 race. Ms. Greene doesnt talk about the issue publicly anymore, but she did bring it up in her early emails to former supporters of Douglas L. Hoffman.
And earlier this year, the gossip news site Gawker posted a photograph of Mr. Doheny embracing a woman who was not his fianc�e, which he has since described as an innocent kiss on the cheek caught at a bad angle much ado about nothing, he said.
What does Mr. Doheny say to voters who have questions about his character?
I say, Get to know me. Understand that a lot of those things are fabricated, Mr. Doheny said. Ive made mistakes, and Ive apologized for my mistakes.
Mr. Doheny has been busy preparing for his wedding to Mary E. Reidy on Saturday, just four days after the primary, at St. Cyrils Church in Alexandria Bay, where he was an altar boy growing up.
He met Ms. Reidy when he was working in New York City in the 2000s. He brought his career back to his north country roots in 2011. Thats when he founded North Country Capital LLC, an investment firm based at 215 Washington St. The asset is valued between $1 million and $5 million, and he earned an estimated $100,001 to $1 million through his business in 2011 and part of 2012, according to his personal finance disclosures.
His business experience far from the handicap that his Republican and Democratic opponents alike have attempted to turn it into is a reason to vote for him, he says.
With my business background, I understand that right now, our economy and our debt are the two challenges we face, he said.
Perhaps Tuesday will bring something that few could have predicted on a cold November morning in 2010. Thats not likely, Mr. Doheny says.
We have a clear choice that can be laid out for Nov. 6, Mr. Doheny said. Were looking forward to having a spirited debate and taking it to Congressman Owens starting on June 27.

The city of Ozamiz grew out of an old Spanish town called Misamis—a name believed to have been derived from the Subanen word "Kuyamis," a variety of coconut. Other unverified historical sources, however, suggest that the name Misamis came from "Misa" after the Catholic Mass. The origin and the growth of the old Spanish town, Misamis, was due to the presence of the Spanish garrison stationed at the stone fort named Nuestra Senora dela Concepcion del Triunfo, which was constructed sometimes the 18th century in order to control the pirate activities originating in the nearby Lanao area. In 1850, the town of Misamis became the capital of the District of Misamis.
After the Second World War, Misamis became a chartered city by virtue of Republic Act 321 on July 16, 1948. RA 321 also renamed Misamis to Ozamiz after a WW-II hero José Ozámiz who hailed from the province of Misamis Occidental and who at one time also served as its governor and congressional representative of the Lone District of Misamis Occidental, a delegate to the 1935 Constitutional Convention that resulted in the creation of the 1935 Constitution for the Philippine Commonwealth Government. In 1941, José Ozámiz was elected to the Philippine Senate.

Tourism and culture[edit]
Notable events and festivals[edit]
The feast of Our Lady of Triumph of the Cross at Cotta Shrine is celebrated every July 16 which is also the Charter City anniversary. Subayan Keg Subanon festival is also held on the same day. The Cotta entertainment area has free live band concerts and other musical variety shows each weekend. Fireworks displays are held at Cotta during Fiesta and holidays. It can be seen across Panguil bay as far as Lanao del Norte.
The feast of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception is celebrated every December 8 while every 4th Sunday of January is the Sr. Sto. Nino Fluvial Parade held at Panguil Bay. Balanghoy Festival is held annually at Cotta area.
- Fuerte de la Concepcion y del Triunfo – also known as Cotta Fort and Shrine, is a fort built in 1755 by Father Jose Ducos to serve as a Spanish outpost in the area. A special chapel was built inside the walls of the fort and an image of the Virgin of the Immaculate Conception, in the pink and blue attire, was enshrined in the chapel and outside the fort on the wall facing the bay, was a carved image of the Virgin Mary. The image on the Cotta's wall is believed to be miraculously growing and has been the object of pilgrimage. The fort was renovated and restored to its original design in 2006.
- Bukagan Hill – has a view of the city, Panguil bay, the provinces of Lanao del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur. There are four great bells at the top of Bukagan Hill. The bells were named after "St. Peter", "St. Marien", "St. Joseph" and "St. Michael" and were originally purchased by Bishop Patrick Cronin, D.D. for the Immaculate Conception Cathedral. However, the bells weigh 7 tons and were found to be too heavy and too large for the cathedral's belfry. The people felt that it was very expensive to construct a special belfry for them considering that a lot of fund raising effort was made for the building of the cathedral and the installing of the pipe organ. It was through the efforts of then City Mayor Fernando T. Bernad that the bells were finally given a place at the Bukagan Hill. With the help of Jesus Y. Varela, the huge bells were installed in Bukagan Hill Bells and officially inaugurated on July 16, 1948.[6]
- Naomi's Botanical Garden and tourists Inn – sits on a 12 hectare property of local and imported tropical flowers, plants and fruit seedlings. There are fully air-conditioned private rooms, Function halls, tennis court, Golf range, ceramics factory, pottery and a bakery inside this sprawling garden.
- Mt. Malindang Golf and country Club – this is a pre-war army facility converted into a golf course located in Bagakay at the foot of Mount Malindang.
- Immaculate Conception Pipe organ – found in the choir loft of the Immaculate Conception Cathedral, is the only existing pipe organ in Mindanao and one among the few throughout the country. An Irish Columban priest, Father Sean Lavery, who was in charge of the liturgical and musical development in the Immaculate Conception Cathedral realized the need for an organ. Funds were raised through donations and a musical extravaganza organized by the parish raised enough money to buy the pipe organ. Father Lavery asked the help of a German priest, Father Herman Schablitzki S.V.D., who came to Ozamiz City to get the specification needed to guide the organ builders in Germany. Father Schablitzki himself, assisted by one carpenter and one electrician, assembled the organ in six weeks and it was completed on May 31, 1967. It was inaugurated on July 16, 1967; the feast day of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.[7]
Ozamiz-Labo Airport was reopened last July 5, 2007, 9 years after Philippine Airlines (PAL) stopped their operations using Fokker and Sunriser planes in 1998 and eventually its closure due to short runway in which cannot accommodate jet planes. Air Philippines, a subsidiary airline of PAL, was the first airline served the airport for Manila using B737-200 which is also the first jet plane to land the airport. PAL Express, also subsidiary by PAL, was then served in Ozamiz for Cebu again using their Q300/Q400. Cebu Pacific Air also launched and opened their service in Ozamiz with its first flight from Cebu last November 10, 2008 using the brand-new ATR72-500. Due to strategic location and increasing the volume of passengers, cargo and tourist arrivals, Cebu Pacific launched its Manila route using the spacious and bigger Airbus 319 and the comeback of Philippine Airlines (PAL) take-over the Air Philippines service to Manila using also the Airbus 319 last June 16, 2009. Due to fierce airline competition, increasing of flights to/from Manila and Cebu was complement with the comeback of Airphil Express (formerly Air Philippines) for Ozamiz-Manila v.v. last August 18, 2011 using their brand-new and bigger Airbus A320. Cebu Pacific Air also change its aircraft from Airbus 319 to Airbus 320 for Manila and from ATR72-500 to Airbus 319/Airbus 320 for Cebu last 2010–2011. In 2012, Philippine Airlines stop their operations to Manila last March 25, 2012 and retake-over again by Airphil Express. Airphil Express also change their aircraft from Q400 to Airbus 320 for Cebu flights last summer. Cebu Pacific Air also increase its flight to Manila in late afternoon last summer until July 2012. as of now, Airphil Express and Cebu Pacific Air served to Manila and Cebu using Q400, Airbus 319, and Airbus 320. The influx of airline companies serving Ozamiz City and the general areas of Misamis Occidental, Lanao del Norte, Zamboanga del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur will surely benefit the riding public due to fierce airfare competition.
There are several major shipping lines serving Cebu and Iligan routes namely: 2GO Travel (formerly SuperFerry, Negros Navigation and Cebu Ferries), Trans-Asia Shipping Lines, Cokaliong Shipping Lines, Carlos A. Gothong Lines, and Philippine Span Asia Carrier Corp.(PSACC former Sulpicio Lines). Cokaliong Shipping Lines increased their Cebu service from thrice to 5 times weekly. Local shipping lines like Daima have trips from Ozamiz to Mukas, Kolambugan, Lanao del Norte routes through Roll-on/roll-off (RORO) ferries that transport passengers, cars/trucks and goods across Panguil bay.
Rural Transit, Super Five Transport, & Lotradisco are the dominant public land transportations to Iligan City, Cagayan de Oro City, & Kapatagan, Lanao del Norte ferrying across the Panguil Bay and to Pagadian City, Dipolog City, and Dapitan City. The public mode of transportation within the city is by trisikad/pedicab and motorized tricycle. Passenger Vans, Ordinary Jeepneys, & Multicab Jeepneys are also available for Oroquieta, Dipolog, Cotabato, Molave, Calamba, Jimenez, Bonifacio, Tangub, Don Victoriano, Tudela, Clarin, Plaridel, Lopez Jaena, Baliangao, Concepcion, Sinacaban, Panaon, & Sapang Dalaga routes.

A.L.i.C.E. training: Teaching how to respond when an intruder threatens
A.L.i.C.E. stands for Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Evacuate. This nationally-renowned training was developed following examination of school shootings, such as the one that occurred April 20, 1999 at Columbine High School in Colorado.
UAPD has adopted the program and has trained more than 26,000 faculty, staff, and students, teaching the proactive measures that people can take when faced with an assailant entering a building or classroom.
Video: Overview of A.L.i.C.E. training
Officers' training
UAPD officers meet or exceed the training standards of the Ohio Peace Officers Training Council and receive ongoing in-service and specialized training. UAPD enforces all laws of the State of Ohio and the City of Akron as well as being responsible for public safety services such as crime prevention, medical emergencies, fire emergencies and traffic accidents.

I nearly forgot to report on the fire at the Guru Da Dhaba Indian restaurant on the corner of Johnston St and Gore St on the morning of 4 December 2008. I rode past about 9am on my motorbike on my way to work, and I did not have my camera with me so I had nothing worth publishing. Smoke was still coming from the upstairs windows and there was an enormous pile of something, perhaps carpets and curtains thrown out from the upstairs windows, out on the footpath. I thought no major media had reported on it but the Herald Sun ran a story about it.
Thanks to Neil from Melbourne metblogs for reminding me about the story, which prompted me to go back and have another look. I'm posting this story now, with photos taken on 22 December 2008, to show the extent of the damage and to report that the restaurant is unlikely to reopen soon. The building upstairs looks badly damaged and it may have to be demolished (that's just my opinion – I'm no expert). Surprisingly the downstairs restaurant space (below) does not appear badly damaged.

Video: Senior Night & Luke Dunivant Award Ceremonies
WORCESTER, Mass. – Holy Cross junior midfielder Monty Sanders (Temecula, Calif.) scored the game-clinching goal in the 56th minute to help propel the Crusaders to a 2-1 victory over Navy in Patriot League men's soccer action on Saturday evening at Linda Johnson Smith Soccer Stadium on Senior Night. With the win, Holy Cross improves its record to 5-8-2 overall and 2-2-2 in conference games. Navy slips to 6-6-3 on the season and 1-3-2 in the league.
With the game knotted at one goal each, Sanders tried to play a ball in the box, but was fouled by Navy goalkeeper Gavin Snyder and awarded a penalty kick. Sanders launched the ensuing shot at the net and was stuffed by Snyder. The rebound found Sanders' foot where he was able to drive the ball home and put Holy Cross on top 2-1. The goal was Sanders' third of the season, which is second best on the team.
The Crusaders tallied the first goal of the contest in the 34th minute when junior forward Kevin O'Connell (Basking Ridge, N.J.) ripped a shot from 12 yards out after receiving a pass by classmate Max Pettinelli (Scituate, Mass.). The goal was O'Connell's first of the year while the assist was Pettinelli's first point of his career.
After the intermission, Navy would tie the game just 49 seconds into the second half as Geoff Fries gathered the rebound from a shot by Thomas Shiiba and put it past Crusaders keeper Kevin Wright (McKinney, Texas), setting up Sanders' heroics just over 10 minutes later.
Wright was called upon to make one save as he improves his record to 4-3-2 overall. Snyder made four saves in the defeat and is now 6-5-3 on the season.
Both teams played a physical game, in which they combined for 29 fouls and three yellow cards.
The Crusaders held advantages in shots (11-7), shots on goal (6-2), and corner kicks (6-4).
Holy Cross will return to action at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 30, as it will take on non-conference opponent Harvard at the Linda Johnson Smith Soccer Stadium.
Senior captain Pat McCann (Rockville Centre, N.Y.), Evan Polanik (Holliston, Mass.), Shane Regan (Quincy, Mass.) and Steven Stefanak (Massapequa, N.Y.) were honored before the game. Also at halftime the Luke Dunivant Award was presented. The award was established in memory of former Holy Cross men's soccer player Luke Dunivant, class of 1997, who passed away in 2008 after a courageous battle with leukemia. The award is presented annually to a member of the men's soccer team who, like Luke, has inspired others by displaying outstanding courage, commitment to the team and sportsmanship during his career. The award went to McCann and was presented by 2010 recipient Tom Van Grinsven, and Luke's teammates Timothy Davison, Daniel Wersanski and Piet Gauchat.
Polanik has played in 23 career games. He has been named the Patriot League Goalie of the Week twice. He has a 1.88 career goals against average and has made 112 saves.
Regan has played in 40 career games. He has scored two career goals as they have both been game-winners. Regan has been strong in the classroom as he is a two-time member of the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll.
Stefanak has played 53 career games. He has netted two career goals. He has appeared in the second most career games of any current member of the team.
McCann has been a mainstay on the field as he has played in 62 career games with 61 starts which are the most games played by any current member of the team. He has two goals and five assists for nine points. Pat has demonstrated his strong leadership skills as he is a two-year team captain and was a member of the Holy Cross Leadership Academy. He was also named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll.

I just wanted to reply to the bad driving comment.
My mare has had loading issues since day one of knowing her as a 3year old even before my buying her. This new problem of flying out backwards has nothing to do with my driving! I know very well first hand that she is a bad loader and since having my own box have driven many a motorist mad by how carefully I deliberately drive to make sure she has no excuse on my behalf not to go on again!!!!
This new problem of her reversing out at will is just another one of her issues. My horsebox (lorry) has a rear ramp and the horses are forward facing. The only way out is to back out, or to as she prefers widen the partitions on each side and allow her to gently turn around and come out forwards, which she has done happily for 2years (once on of course! Lol) There is nothing behind her to prevent her from reversing out once untied at the front, and as there are not rear bars or anything other than the ramp to stop her like there are on so many trailers, she is at will to do so. Although even if she were tied I worry she would simply break away.
Also can I add if a horse had had a bad trip/ride in a horsebox surely they would show signs of distress, I.e. Sweating, blowing, struggling to stand up, panic etc etc etc. She does none of this. We have a window from the cab through to the back and she never does anything that shows a slight bit of worry. In fact she loves munching on her net and looking out of the window! I have also had a friend travel in the back with her and she to said how relaxed she was, never struggling to corner with the box or struggling to keep her balance! My friend also commented on how well sprung the back was as she felt hardly any movement in the back compared to when she is sat upfront with me.
I just wanted to make sure that was clear! Sorry if I sound blunt! But I have done as much as I can to make my girl load well consistantly and sometimes she will for weeks on end and then just when you want to go somewhere or better want to leave after a super tiering day at a competition she simply wont have it! It is that inconsistant!

A visit to the 'envisionist'
Gregory Sherl's debut novel "The Future for Curious People" (Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill, $14.95), combines speculative fiction with two love stories. The love stories center on Evelyn and Adrian, who at the beginning of the novel are breaking up, and Godfrey and Madge, who are discussing marriage.
Godfrey proposes to Madge, who suggests they go to separate "envisioning" doctors before tying the knot. Evelyn and Adrian's visit to an "envisionist" seals their breakup. This ability to see one's future makes up the speculative part of his novel.
Sherl's novel will be published Sept. 2. (For information, visit www.algonquin.com.)
Here are some other readings and events:
-- Cary author Scott Blumenthal's novel "The Kiss" (Loose Leaves Publishing, $18.95) follows young musician Aron Beckman, who is learning to play the harp, as the Nazis sweep across Europe. Blumenthal tells this story through different narrators and viewpoints, interspersing interviews of Holocaust survivors with historical commentary to provide context. The novel received the Independent Publisher Book Awards' gold medal for historical fiction.
Blumenthal will read and sign copies of "The Kiss" at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Barnes & Noble Booksellers in New Hope Commons in Durham. (The book is available at www.LooseLeavesPublishing.com.)
-- Durham author Michele Andrea Bowen ("Church Folk," "Up at the College") will read and sign copies of her new novel, "Pastor Needs a Boo" (St. Martin's Griffin, $15.99) at 7 p.m. Monday at Stanford L. Warren Library, 1201 Fayetteville St.
"Pastor Needs a Boo" takes place in the author's adopted hometown of Durham. Unlike a "wife" or the more biblical term, a "help meet," a "boo" means girlfriend, boyfriend or significant other. In Bowen's novel, the church ladies in pursuit of the single the Rev. Denzell Flowers show readers the underbelly of the Christian church and ultimate redemption – with a comical twist.
This program is free and open to the public.
-- Durham author Mur Lafferty's novel "The Shambling Guide to New York City" (Orbit Books, $15), has received the 2014 Manly Wade Wellman Award for North Carolina Science Fiction and Fantasy. The North Carolina Speculative Fiction Foundation gives out the award. Lafferty's latest novel follows Zoe, a travel writer trying to rebuild her writing career in New York, who is given the assignment of writing a travel guide for the undead. Lafferty also is the author of "Ghost Train to New Orleans."
The Manly Wade Wellman Award was founded to recognize outstanding achievement in science fiction and fantasy novels written by North Carolina authors. The 2014 award, voted on by the combined membership of North Carolina science fiction and fantasy conventions, covers novels published in 2013. (To purchase this book, visit www.orbitbooks.net.)

Actually WS and I did get to play with this a little at the Atlanta Throwdown. Maybe he will give a little more insight to this old discussion."Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration." -A. Lincoln

OK. I'll add that in a new paragraph or 2 in the Advice section. I have to think about the wording for awhile because I want to cast no aspersions using poor phrasing nor do I want to preach. But I'll try to be tactful and politically correct for a change.
I'll also add in kmckinley's excellent point about default settings being a KISS thing. Regarding Writer2epub I'd read about it a little, but I haven't tried it. Maybe a paragraph listing tools like that might be helpful, but I'd figured those were covered elsewhere in the forum. But I'll add it anyway.
Edit: And travger's advice to go slow at first, clarifying the learning curve, and the more books there are the more time refixing things uses up.
Anybody who has any advice for new calibre users, please post here and I'll incorporate in KISS where possible. There are probably a lot of other things experienced users do - or even new users - that might be helpfui to other new users, gathered together in one place. Also please advise me if I make any errors in assumptions, practices, or whatever.
Before posting a major revision I'll read back through the thread carefully, make sure I didn't miss anything, then incorporate.

The cable durability is actually incredible. Out of curiosity, I took a cable and attempted to quickly 'snap' it to no avail. I was surprised, and wrapped the cable around 2 fingers on each hand and pulled away from each other.
This left me with bruises on my fingers, and a slightly stretched, (functional) cable. I had to place the cable in a vise grip, and wrap it around a pole & pull with a force much stronger than would ever be experienced by the cable in normal conditions to finally separate it.
It is worth saying that the two individual cables which connect the 'control pad' to the headphone cups are notably weaker, but still quite resilient.
SOL does not currently sell replacement cables, but if you damage the current cable you can submit a warranty claim with a receipt and they will put it through their warranty process and send out a new one as a first-time exception.

SOL REPUBLIC do actually sell replacement cables, if you go to their shop online. Also they sell replacement headbands in case you melt yours. (they are genuinely impossibly flexible!)
