These blotter items are becoming more ridiculous by the day! Why are we taxpayers allowing frivolous calls like this one, and many others recently, to go unchallenged? Cell phone retailers and companies are ALL ripoffs anyway, so why call police because one scam artist is taking away 'business' from another scam artist?!
How can we, the taxpayers, stop people from making these calls? I agree that people are getting way to carried away with them, but they are taxpayers too.
This is as stupid as people calling to discipline their kids. Oh, yeah, call the cops because your kids misbehave. I may need them because some idiot has me at knife point and they are tied up because your little johnny won't go to school when you tell him to. Really smart.
I tell you what. The next time someone calls for something stupid, we charge them for the call. Want to see how fast it stops?
For every time a parent calls the cops for a child discipline they should handle themselves....$100 fee.
For business problems $200.00 fee
Watch how fast these stupid things stop.
You don't pay....you go to jail. Then you watch how fast they stop calling the police for dumb things like this.
I agree that many calls to 911 are just plain ridiculous if not out right stupid, but who gets to decide what is and isn't important?
Maybe they should ride their roll over minutes to the other store and punch them in the redial button!

Over the last few days I've seen a few people pop in the support channel and ask "wheres my coins!!! this pool is a scam!!".
Trust me, you are mining and getting every coin entitled to you. DOGE mining is unprofitable ever since AuxPow allowed gigantic Litecoin pools to run the DOGECOIN network. This is not the pools fault, but all DOGECOIN pools suffer from it as DOGECOIN mining is literally 10x-20x harder because of AuxPow.
If anyone has any uncertainty, please read up on what network difficulty does to miners abilities to get coins.
Thank you!
We've been asked a few times in the last few days regarding the difficulty or the HUGE slowdown in payouts.
We are working on our plan to implement merged mining from our Litecoin pool to support AuxPow Dogecoin mining aswell. We will keep our Dogecoin pool operational.
Dogecoin gets the network backing of Litecoin today, AuxPow.
Very excited to be the pool that solved block 300k (after it was stalled at 299999 for nearly 10 minutes!).
Fees are returned to normal now,
We've lowered Automatic and Manual payout thresholds down to 500 doge (from 1000 doge).
Miners, please enjoy a 0% fee from now and through this halvening.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE PAST 7 MONTHS!!! Heres to the next!
As Dogecoin reaches all time lows for mining profit, many dogecoin pools are closing for various reasons.. We are not.
HashFaster's very premise of operation is to give miners a place to mine! We run the pools not for profit, but to give new and old miners alike, a safe and reputable place to point their investments. We are prepared to run the pool at a $0 profit, or even a slight loss. In the event that we cannot cover our infrastructure costs, we will simple re-engineer our infrastructure accordingly, while still maintaining the same level of service miners expect from us.
Thanks for your continued support of our pool and network of pools!
We had registrations disabled for 24 hours following a frontend upgrade. They are now open once again.
My apologizes for the spam, but some people may have just gotten idle worker notifications, as we just fixed an issue that was causing idle worker notifications to not work for almost a month.
A few DDoS attacks today, weve mitigated them at our firewalls, should be better now.
We like to do random perks once in a while.. and today is one of them.
We will be updating and implementing a new GUI very soon.
Stay tuned!
The DOGE network has increased its confirmation time to 260 blocks when it hardforked to verion wallet 1.6, meaning you will normally have to wait up to 4 hours for your unconfirmed coins to become confirmed in your balances.
This is not a joke!
We will be giving out block rewards of 1000 DOGE to miners that solve the block, credited automatically, instantly.
Have fun!
To help support this, please upvote http://redd.it/21x4en if you can!
We've moved to a new load balancer, closer to our stratum servers, and in a better network with better protection against the never-ending attacks a popular pool attracts.
We've implemented what the Dogecoin dev thinks is a viable fix to to prevent the 1.4.x Dogecoin wallet from having the sync/fork issue we discovered yesterday. We are taking baby steps because we value our miners and their coins. We are enabling MANUAL PAYOUTS ONLY for 24 hours, to see how things proceed.
Please ensure you are running the latest Dogecoin 1.5.2 wallet (dogecoin.com) and send your coins there (not to an exchange!).
Thanks for your understanding
Basically to summarize things, your hashing is safe. Regardless what the website reports, you are hashing on the correct blockchain, 1.5.1 wallet version. Because of DOGE's dev's inability to test wallets with pools before pushing releases, we and most other pools are forced to use wallet 1.4.x for payouts. This payout wallet is having sync issues therefore is stuck on a fork. This is why payouts are being paused. Once the 1.4.x payout wallet can be fixed or safely upgraded and synced back up, payouts will remain paused.
Don't trust the block/pool stats, as they are all basing their math on the old forked blockchain. Once the payout wallets can be repaired, all the blocks that are being solved "behind the scenes" will show up and be credited.
I hope this sheds some light on things.
Apparently our wallet is too big for Dogecoin 1.5 to handle, so we were forced to revert and resync a 1.4.1 blockchain in doing so. This is why we kept the website off. We are processing the blocks which were solved behind the scenes (stratum servers use their own systems to do their mining).
We will be doing backend maintenance and will be pausing payouts/stats up to 2 hour (or as little as 15 minutes) while we do this maintenance. Mining will remain unaffected. Once maintenance is completed, we will re-enable payouts and processing of stats, etc.
Maintenance window is 12:00PM to 2:00PM EST, Today February 3rd.
UPDATE: Back to normal.. A little longer than I expected due to unforseen DOGE wallet RPC issues (thanks 1.5!!) We figured it out, however.
We are in the process of adding more, and lowering the starting VARDIFF for our existing stratum load-balanced cluster. Over the next 24 hours, we will be bouncing stratum servers (while maintaining atleast 10 in the load balance setup) to enable a starting share diff of 32 (versus 128). The maximum diff will still be 512 for our public stratum servers.
Enjoy the sub 1 hour on payouts!
Last evening, we had a payout issue which forced us to remove a block from the database, this blocks details are: Block 69599 blockhash d67524923b602203545ad70a690fcc5c8fc5ca5c6bed873523b6a159d54dc3c4 for the amount of 56273.15863604 DOGE at 1174.67270053 difficulty found by dg68lxy.
Because there is no easy way to insert this back to be paid under the normal PPLNS calculations, we are going to make it up by running zero fees for 5 hours. Based on average luck, this should make up for the payout you would have received from that 56k DOGE block. The root cause was identified and repaired.
We will be running 0% Fees from 3:00PM EST to 8:00PM EST TODAY (1/24/14) to make up for this glitch.
Thank you for your understanding regarding this matter,
Someone loves us ALOT. We've had our stratum servers attacked a few times today - we are working on a method to mitigate.
We are continually optimizing the site, so load times are better, etc. Sorry if you notice breif interruptions.
We are going to implementing 2FA (two-factor authentication) that will force users to use e-mail verification when changing passwords, pins, and payout addresses. We are looking to enable this in 7 days (next Monday 1/27/14).
While this adds another step in changing these options, its also increases security GREATLY. This essential would prevent someone that knows your pin/password from altering your account. We will post a news update to remind everyone this coming weekend.
We've made some adjustments. Website should respond quick again.
They are experiencing in some cases 24 hours of delay. Always withdrawl to your own local wallet first!
You may notice things are a bit snappier now, we've added more horsepower to support pool growth!
SSL certificate installed and load balanced. Please use this as we will be forcing (rewrite rules) SSL in the very near future. Update your bookmarks for https://doge.hashfaster.com
We will be putting up an optional SSL enabled path to the site in the next day or two. In hopes that after a week of overlap we will shutdown non-ssl entirely. FYI!!
BTER: 10% discount for 6 months on ALL TRADE FEEs, Faster, less volume at the moment, long time running (before cryptsy!): CLICK HERE
CRYPTSY: slow as balls, ALOT of volume: CLICK HERE
We had a nagging issue (that was more of an annoying issue , than anything else) where some "slower" miners would get stratum disconnects every minute or every few minutes.
After much troubleshooting we've determined this was due to a load balancer client timeout of 50000ms (50 seconds). This means if your miner didnt submit a share within 50 seconds, your load balanced session was nixed. We have since repaired this, increasting the timeout to much larger value and the problem is now resolved.
Thanks for the support, we've lowered the fee to 1%! Please consider donating!
Keep on piling them in, much digging, such blocks, much wow.
Sorry about that, theres your blocks!
2% FEE, PPLNS PAYOUTS STRATUM ONLY VARDIFF 32-512 diff shares
We will be lowering fee to 1% once we hit 1000mh.

We look set for an epic Premier League title race.
Manchester United got off to a flyer on Saturday Night Football when they won 4-1 at Swansea City, before Jose Mourinho's Chelsea laid down a marker with a stunning opening 45 minutes on Super Sunday as they beat newly-promoted Hull City 2-0.
Then Manchester City made a real statement of intent on Monday Night Football as they thrashed 10-man Newcastle 4-0.
An enthralling opening Premier League weekend with Manuel Pellegrini's side impressing Sky Bet most as they shortened to 7/4 from 9/4.
Chelsea are 11/5 after edging past Villa on Wednesday night and the champions have drifted half a point to 3/1 despite scoring those four goals at Swansea.
I can't ever remember a side doubling in price after one game - but Arsenal have been put to 20/1 from 10s and probably friendless at that price after a nightmare start.
It felt good to get the first Super Sunday and Monday Night Football of the season under our belt.
It was a great experience to be at Stamford Bridge for Mourinho's homecoming and the atmosphere could not have contrasted more with when we were there for Rafa Benitez's first game.
Some of the football that followed in the first half had analyst Graeme Souness purring and comparing Chelsea's play to that of Barcelona.
MNF was full of fascinating analysis from Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville, and I was particularly interested in what Jamie had to say about the new-look Everton under Roberto Martinez.
He said the change in style was summed up by the two full-backs being the only Everton players in the six-yard box for Seamus Coleman's goal.
Everton had more possession and more passes than any other team in the Premier League last weekend. Their 564 passes against Norwich was 150 more than their average under David Moyes last season.
Punters should keep a close eye on Roberto Martinez's starting XI at home to West Brom on Saturday.
On Super Sunday this week we have another chance to see the title favourites in action as Manchester City travel to Cardiff.
It will be Cardiff's first top division home game since a 3-0 win against West Ham at Ninian Park on April 23, 1962.
West Ham's team that day included Martin Peters, Bobby Moore and Geoff Hurst. Peters had to go in goal for the final 20 minutes (with the score at 2-0) after goalkeeper Brian Rhodes was carried off with a dislocated collarbone as no subs were permitted back then.
How times have changed and that game 51 years ago was played in front of 11,274 fans so it will be quite a contrast on Sunday as Cardiff's new home will packed and jumping.
Cardiff are such a progressive, forward thinking club and we will be featuring a few of their innovations on the show.
Talking of new things, Thursday is going to be a day with a difference for Gary Neville and I because we are heading north to speak at the Edinburgh TV Festival.
I'm not sure we'll make the headlines Al Gore did there a few years ago but it should be good fun and hopefully a good warm-up act for Kevin Spacey, who is this year's main speaker.
The main game game of the weekend comes on Monday night with the first 'blockbuster' clash of the season - Manchester United v Chelsea.
Skybet have Manchester United at 5/4, Chelsea at 11/5 and the draw trading at 23/10.
What a fascinating tactical battle this will be and there's so much for Jamie and Gary to get stuck in to from 7pm on Sky Sports 1.
There's always brilliant racing at York's Ebor Festival and the meeting has weather to match this year.
I sincerely hope Richard Fahey has a productive few days.
The master trainer needs a bit of cheering up as he's a big Arsenal fan and has been despairing at their lack of activity in the transfer market.
I'm also not sure Fahey's recovered from being the beaten favourite in the summer's Sky Bet Yorkshire Festival Tipping competition.
I was the outsider of the party as the only football representative amongst six racing aficionados and also the rank outsider in Sky Bet's market.
I was delighted to prove those odds wrong - by using a few contacts up North - to win the competition and most importantly make a profit of over £900 for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
My sources tell me the esteemed Sporting Life editor (Dave Ord) and Sky Bet's Racing PR manager (Michael Shinners), who was tailed off, are still licking their wounds.
Definitely one of the highlights of my summer.
That was a freak week and my tipping will probably now revert to the norm but I will certainly be having a few quid on The Fugue in Thursday's Yorkshire Oaks.
No Al Kazeem to worry about this time and conditions look ideal for her.
Sky Bet are sponsoring three good races on Friday's card on the Knavesmire. The feature is the Nunthorpe and I'd love to see Moviesta win for Harry Redknapp and his team of owners.
Saturday's Ebor looks as competitive as ever.
I did fancy Jonjo O'Neill's Well Sharp to run a massive race but connections have decided to give this race the swerve which is a shame as the long York straight would have been ideal for him.

Discussion: Reebok MeLee and Barrage

|Reebok MeLee and Barrage
Just got in my stock order of the new Barrage and MeLee. Since there were questions on break in and durability on both of these bats and I was asked to break a few in for players I randomly pulled a few for break in and testing. Here is what I found:
Reebok Barrage 27: we know that some earlier models had durability issues especially the 26/27 ounce models so I felt the need to durability test this new shipment. Break is was as usual for this bat....very quickly it attained game ready levels of batted ball speeds and distance so we continued on with it. I have now reached 310 swings with no issues on the bat whatsoever. It's hitting the balls VERY crisply and with excellent distance. This bat certainly appears to have acceptable levels of performance and very importantly, durability. If you are looking for a bat that breaks in very easily and reaches good performance levels, the Barrage may be for you. Additionally, if you are a older player or a player that does not have above average or average bat speed, the Barrage can still provide you with an easy swing weight and good results.
Reebok MeLee: there were some concerns that the new bats that we just received were taking longer to break in than normal so I thought I would investigate that. I used a 27el and a 28 bal MeLee that needed to be broken in. With most Melees I can usually begin to experience break in levels at around 35-50 swings while I have had a few get ready to go in as little as 20-25 swings. The 27EL hit well out of the wrapper and loosened up about 35-40 swings. I took it up to 65 swings and it was producing that great feel and performance we are used to with Reebok. I am sure it will rock once I give it to its owner and let him swing it 5 or 10 times...
Now for the 28BAL...THIS ONE PROVED A LITTLE MORE STUBBORN! After 50 swings it had not changed a lot and finally at 72 it shifted gears noticeably. I went ahead and took it to 80 and.....now we are talking!
All in all...the new Reeboks seem to be very similar to previous editions but some may take a few more swings to loosen up. Nothing to worry about as they still provide great performance and good durability for a top tier senior bat. I will be doing some other work this week, weather permitting and will post updates. As always, call me with any questions regarding your choice of bats and your options.

|The Barrage 27 now has 370 hits on it and it's still going. I am going to take another 26 from this order and test it as well as a vast majority of the early problems were with these two weights. The Melees continue to be A-Ok.
Btw...some of you guys were asking for batch numbers from this new shipment. Here is a sample: 4A FTC V50 771

|Thanks for the good info A. Haven't been able to do the testing that you have done here in Colorado as it has still remained a bit too cold and yesterday we got nearly a foot of snow in the mountains. The Reebok Melee has worked well in our western states tournaments Phoenix, Mesquite, Vegas. I will be in Reno in 2 weeks and have all Reebok models in stock if western players need help. End loads are going quickly.

How to make Sidebar work like a normal Page, with Ctrl-Click for new Tabs and Right-Click for Context Menu?
- Put the file with the links in an HTML file, and included it like this.
<iframe id="gj53run-sidebar-iframe" flex="1" src="chrome://gj53run/content/CookBook/MySidebar.htm"/>
- example xul file
<?xml version="1.0"?> <?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin" type="text/css"?> <?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://gj53run/skin/gj53run.css" type="text/css"?> <!DOCTYPE window SYSTEM "chrome://gj53run/locale/gj53run.dtd"> <window xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" id="gj53run-ShowMenu-sidebar" onload="gj53runSidebarMenuOnload()" onunload="gj53runSidebarMenuOnUnload()"> <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://gj53run/content/utilsxul.js"/> <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://gj53run/content/gj53runMenuXUL.js"/> <iframe id="gj53run-sidebar-iframe" flex="1" src="chrome://gj53run/content/CookBook/MySidebar.htm"/> </window>
- Then something like this in your overlay will work
<broadcaster id="gj53run-xxh-sidebar" autoCheck="false" label="&gj53run.menuitem.SFT2.label;" type="checkbox" group="sidebar" sidebarurl="chrome://gj53run/content/xxxx.xul" oncommand="toggleSidebar('gj53run-xxxxx-sidebar');"/>
- If you follow the links from www.cookdotcom.com you can download my alpha extension.
- There is a working example their, it the main menu
How to create a log when a user visits a site in Firefox?
- Add an event listener to the window object to call your function when a browser window as loaded.
window.addEvenListener("load", MyExtension.init, false);
- In that function, get the current URL. If it's what you're looking for, create write to a log file.
- For more info, check:
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:window (window.location) http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Code_snippets:File_I/O
Is it possible to Detect the presence of specific extension from JavaScript?
- You could use the DOM events to talk to the installed extension, see http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=1005555#1005555 for description and http://circum.com/startalocalprogram.html for an example.
- It is also possible to make an object accessible to webpage JS via a global property - see nsSidebar.js
- You could create a dummy plugin (and install it together with itunes) which would then be visible via navigator.plugins <http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/navigator.plugins>
- Not to mention this url from some obscure hardware company. <http://developer.apple.com/internet/webcontent/examples/detectplugins...>
- You could also append a string to the useragent. See http://www.mozilla.org/build/revised-user-agent-strings.html#implemen... for details.
How to create an extension to get selected text from browser?
- See window.getSelection here: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:window.getSelection
var focusedWindow = document.commandDispatcher.focusedWindow; var winWrapper = new XPCNativeWrapper(focusedWindow, "window", "getSelection()"); var string = winWrapper.getSelection().toString();
Is there a BrowserInitialized event?
- Use the strategy of attaching an init script to the window.onload event:
<script type="application/x-javascript"> <![CDATA[ window.addEventListener('load', MyFunction.init, false); ]]> </script>
- For tabs, attach a listener to the tab container:
//attach listener to new tab in seamonkey brower container = gBrowser.mPanelContainer; container.addEventListener("DOMNodeInserted", MyFunction.processPage, true);
Is there some service or method to getting the current profile or extension folder path?
- Use the __LOCATION__ trick documented here: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Creating_Custom_Firefox_Extensio...
How to control flashmovies with a firefox extension?
- Make certain to use Mook's javascript function to test if the movie is 100% loaded before calling stop. Possibly you could use the setTimeout and setInterval functions from an extension to check at a certain interval and probe the Flash movies for their loading status. Once the loading is 100% then call stop. These routines could be started from a window.onload script in your extension.
// Checks if movie is completely loaded. // Returns true if yes, false if no. function movieIsLoaded (theMovie) { // First make sure the movie's defined. if (typeof(theMovie) != "undefined") { // If it is, check how much of it is loaded. return theMovie.PercentLoaded() == 100; } else { // If the movie isn't defined, it's not loaded. return false; }
- If you are accessing webcontent from chrome, you may need to use the JSWrappedObject property to access unsafe methods.
Is there any way to style text displayed in nsIPromptService dialogs?
- you could use CSS.
Is there a way around library conflicts between extensions?
- In general you should set all your extension methods and global variables prefixed by a namespace to avoid conflicts. So if you copy mochikit and make changes then wrap all the functions in a unique namespace.
- Example:
MyExtension.getMethod(). This will prevent collisions with other libraries with methods with the same name. var ExtensionName = { onLoad: function() { // initialization code this.initialized = true; },
onMenuItemCommand: function() { window.open("chrome://helloworld/content/hello.xul", "", "chrome"); }
- You could also try creating a singleton object and then using mozIJSSubscriptLoader to load your library into the context of the object.
How to insert text into textfield?
<textbox id="myTB"/> document.getElementById("myTB").value = "hello"
- Create an extension with an overlay that adds a popupmenu with the menuitems you want. On the window.onload event create an array of the textfields. On an html page the element would be an input tag with an attribute of type="text". For each textfield in your array add a context="myPopupID" to the input element. Now when the user right-clicks on a textfield your popupmenu from your overlay will appear. You could get the parent of the popupmenu which would be the textfield and then fill the textfield with the value of the menuitem selected.
- You can easily do this by using Firefox's gContextMenu object as follows:
gContextMenu.target.value += "Hello";
How to reference content.document javascript var from sidebar?
- You could use the windowmediator to get the main window.
const windowMediatorIID = Components.interfaces.nsIWindowMediator; const windowMediator = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/appshell/window-mediator;1"].getService(windowMediatorIID); const topWin = windowMediator.getMostRecentWindow("navigator:browser"); winTitle = topWin.document.title
- http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XPCNativeWrapper
How to modify entries on the LDAP server?
- The nsILDAPSyncQuery actually interfaces to the code in: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/directory/xpcom/base/
- which is a wrapper around the LDAP C-SDK (http://wiki.mozilla.org/LDAP_C_SDK).
- Although the LDAP C-SDK has full read and write functionality, the xpcom wrapper hasn't yet got functions for being able to write to ldap directories (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124897).
Is there some way to get a function to run when a user changes the page?
- Try adding a listener for the "beforeunload" event.

July 28, 2015
Texas Department of Transportation employees spent the last few months, getting an earful.
"Most of the people in Grimes County don't want it at all, don't want it at all," said a speaker at a Trans Texas Corridor hearing in February.
Now, it looks like all the opposition to the TTC/ I-69 project has paid off.
Initial studies had the super highway running right through Walker and Grimes County.
Those areas are no longer under consideration. Instead, TXDOT says it will use existing roads.
"Landowners said no we don't want this and we're not gonna take it," said Charlie Wendt.
Wendt's 280 acres were in the original study area.
"I think it wrangled some people, and I know it did me, is the arrogance of saying we're gonna take it," said Wendt.
Much of the land in Grimes County could have been in the TTC path, including historic Shiro Cemetery.
"That was one of the main reasons that we were worried to death about this corridor coming through this way, because that's where all of our family is buried," said Kathie Wendt.
Gravesites and a legacy would have been uprooted.
"Thank goodness someone listened, prayer works," said Kathie.
Grimes County Judge Betty Shiflett, says the decision proves democracy works too.
"It has renewed my faith in the democratic system. The people spoke and they listened. It's a great history lesson," said Shiflett.

Already one of Nickelodeon's hottest stars, Victoria Justice is not only staring in the network series Victorious, but has also given us one of this summer's hottest songs. We can't lie, we have had "My Best Friend's Brother" stuck in our heads while working around the office (not to mention on the ride home) all summer long. The teen star is showing all signs of a successful year and future with the release of the Victorious soundtrack next week, as well as the cross-over TV hit iParty with Victorious, in which she co-starred alongside the cast of iCarly. We are proud to see the former Zoey 101 star growing up while making us laugh and dance along the way.
Before tuning into the one-hour movie special Victorious: Locked Up, which airs this Saturday at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT on Nick, take a look at some of Victoria's hottest looks through the years. (We promise the orange jumpsuit she and her cast mates will be sporting in this week's episode is not included.)

http://dispatch.com:80/live/content/...3.html?sid=101Hidden star: Ken Griffey Jr.
Reds superman happy just being one of the guys
By Scott Priestle / The Columbus Dispatch
CINCINNATI -- Adam Dunn and Ken Griffey Jr. met in February 2000, when Dunn was a 20-year-old class-A outfielder in his first big-league camp and Griffey was a megawatt star in his first camp with the Reds. Dunn knew enough about Griffey to expect he would be ignored.
Which is to say, he did not know enough about Griffey.
"There was all this hoopla, and me and him talked like I'd been in the league 10 years and known him a long time," Dunn recalled recently. "I've obviously never been around anybody else like that, but you hear a lot of things about people who are his caliber of player, and he definitely doesn't fit the mold."
Other Reds players talk about Griffey in similar fashion, even those who are young enough to have considered him a childhood hero. Two decades of baseball fame and fortune allow him to travel in privileged company, but the years have not dimmed his love of the clubhouse culture or his willingness to interact with players all through the roster.
Griffey's physique, too, remains largely unchanged. He is thicker through the chest at 38 than he was at 19, to be sure, but not in the muscle-magazine style of so many of his contemporaries. That's worth noting as he nears 600 career home runs, a milestone reached by only five players in league history, most recently by two players who are covered in a cloud of steroid suspicion: Barry Bonds and Sammy Sosa.
The smile and the swing that made Griffey famous as a young player with the Seattle Mariners remain his defining characteristics in the autumn of his career.
"You couldn't ask for anyone better," teammate Norris Hopper said.
Out of the spotlight:
Griffey is reluctant to talk about his 596 home runs, the approaching milestone or his legacy in the game. He is uncomfortable as the center of public attention.
Yet, when the tape recorders and cameras are turned off and the conversations are dominated by clubhouse banter, Griffey is eager to interject. He seems to thrive as the center of such attention.
"What do I do different than anybody else? Nothing," he said. "Just because I have a few hits and a few home runs doesn't make me anything I'm not. Maybe a little lucky, I guess."
With that, he flashed the smile that sold a thousand Nikes, that once made him -- in the words of teammate Brandon Phillips -- "the Michael Jordan of baseball." A smile seen most often these days during the jocular give-and-take with Dunn and other teammates.
"I tell my kids all the time, I'm a normal person, I just have an abnormal job," Griffey said.
Certainly, the homer-fueled hype that surrounded Bonds, Sosa and Mark McGwire in the past decade allowed Griffey some sense of normalcy. The second half of his career has unfolded with as much anonymity as possible considering the fame he garnered in the first half, when he was voted to the All-Century Team and five times was the leading vote-getter in the All-Star Game.
There has not been a national network, magazine or newspaper here to document Griffey's chase for 600 homers, though he is only four shy. Chad Johnson's running feud with the Bengals is a much more popular topic of conversation on the local airwaves.
A feat worth celebrating:
Of course, that could change as quickly as one of Griffey's line drives reaches the right-field bleachers. When the national audience catches on, it will return the spotlight to a player who thrived through the steroid era without even a whisper that his performance was chemically enhanced.
"You can't control what anyone else does. You can only control what you do," Dunn said. "His numbers were as good or better than all those guys who got caught. It just goes to show what kind of player he is."
Hopper is eagerly awaiting No. 600 and the interest it generates, the way he once awaited the release of a pair of Nike Griffey spikes. (He said he bought the newest version every year from Little League through high school.)
"It means a lot for baseball," Hopper said. "I'm just happy I'm going to be on the same team when he does it."

State Schools Chief Tom Torlakson Announces Assistance for Schools Closed Due to Earthquake
SACRAMENTO—Schools closed because of the earthquake in Napa over the weekend will still receive full state funding, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson announced today.
"Our thoughts and our prayers are with the people in Napa as they deal with the aftermath of the weekend's earthquake," Torlakson said. "While the California Department of Education has not received any reports of deaths, injuries, or serious damage on school property, I want to assure local educational agencies that they will not lose funding if their facilities are closed or used as emergency shelters during this disaster."
Local educational agencies will not lose Average Daily Attendance (ADA) funding if their facilities are used as community shelters or forced to close because of a natural disaster. The California Education Code allows the State Superintendent to authorize ADA credit for the days that schools are closed.
Local educational agencies may also receive ADA credit for all purposes and instructional time credit for the days and minutes lost due to an emergency closure. ADA credit and approval of school closures may be obtained by submitting three copies of Form J-13A (DOC).
For more guidance on ADA credit, visit the California Department of Education's Management Advisory 90-01 - Attendance Web page.

The U.S. Department of Transportation designated Interstate 540 from Alma north to the Missouri border as Interstate 49 today (June 25). The dedication ceremony for Interstate 49 was located in the parking lot of Grace Church of Alma at 11:00 a.m.
"Our neighboring cities and partners here in the south end wanted to also do some sort of dedication and just draw attention," said District Engineer Chad Adams. "It's the next step and continuing I- 49 down south through Arkansas and connecting to Louisiana."
The Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department and a number of Arkansas River Valley leaders gathered to reveal the new I- 49 Interstate signs. Interstate 49 represents 1700 miles of Interstate highway between New Orleans and Canada. The longest section is 185 miles between Fort Smith and Texarkana in Arkanasa. Also, an eight – mile section near the Missouri state line and Bella Vista. The completion of I- 49 will have a 13 – mile stretch from Alma to Chaffee Crossing with a new bridge over the Arkansas River.
" This will make us a transportation contender in the industry so that's really important," said Ivy Owen with the Fort Chaffee Redevelopment Authority.
These new signs cost $75,000. The funding came from the statewide maintenance budget.
According to Adams, this ceremony hopes to draw attention to the need for more funding.
Particularly the bridge that would cross the Arkansas River.
"There`s no funding in place," said AR Highway Commissioner Dick Trammel.
"It all depends on federal funding," Trammel said.
Trammel said they have a petition set up to help gain the needed funds.
Trammel was unable to give an estimated completion date for the bridge.

By Donna MilesAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13, 2006 A 17-year-old Los Angeles boy likes the sentiment of the old song about tying a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree to remember someone who's away from home. But Matthew Cook is taking the idea a step -- make that a mile -- further.
The high school senior is traveling the country, collecting young people's signatures on a yellow ribbon that will ultimately stretch a full mile long. He's arranged for Federal Express to ship what will by then be a 450-pound bolt of fabric to Iraq sometime around Veterans Day.
There, Cook hopes deployed troops will cut some of the 10,000 signatures he expects to collect from the fabric -- "each one symbolizing a young American's heart" -- and fashion them into yellow ribbons to wear on their uniforms until they come home.
An Eagle Scout and inspirational speaker, Cook said it's important for young people to realize the price of the freedoms they enjoy. "I saw a need for kids to understand that the corollary of freedom is individual responsibility," he said. "If our soldiers are willing to go to battle and die for freedom, here at home we have to be willing to live up to it by making the right decisions in our everyday lives."
He said signing the yellow ribbon helps encourage young people to think about and discuss what freedom means to them. "It's been so gratifying to see how many kids are willing to step up to the plate and prove just how much it does mean to them," he said.
Cook and a team he's assembled travel the country, collecting signatures on bolts of yellow fabric wherever they go. "The ribbon has been to parks, museums, schools, expos, all kinds of places where there are a lot of young people 18 and below," he said.
Today he plans to take a section of ribbon to the steps of the U.S. Capitol to collect additional signatures. Once all the signatures are collected, the ribbon sections will be sewn together into a single, mile-long swath to be packed in a crate for shipment to Iraq.
Cook said he hopes the mile-long ribbon project sends a message to troops who sacrifice for the country. "The young people of America have a message, and it is: We support you. We support our troops, and we are grateful to the military," he said.
Cook said he's impressed that America's armed forces do far more than simply what's required of them. "They go above and beyond to protect our freedom," he said. "And that is what this yellow ribbon symbolizes -- going the extra mile to protect freedom."

The 24-year-old released his french-language album Tony Parker yesterday in France, breaking new ground in hip-hop by rhyming about his wealth, women, and famous friends. Parker also uses the same formula when it comes to his videos, which features cameos from his Spurs teammates and, of course, his fiance.
Should Parker quit his day job?

This week, there aren't an abundance of cool and exciting albums coming out, but there are still a few note-worthies. The first, for all you country lovers out there, is Jason Aldean's, Night Train. I know a few people who are really excited about this one. By few, of course I mean, at least 80% of Texas. I can't tell you much about this one, however, because I fall into the 20% who don't enjoy country music. Yeah, yeah, I know. How can I be a true Texan without liking country music? Well, there is only one thing I have to say about that. I don't like Mexican food either. Today, when my friends and I went to eat at Casa Ole, I ordered peperoni pizza and chocolate pudding. Take that true Texan enthusiasts!
Also, I should add that if you are a true Texan and love American Idol. Scotty McCreery is coming out with a Christmas album Tuesday. I think he's a little late coming out with this one. I mean, I have already seen two Christmas commercials on t.v. The Holidays are practically over already, get with it Scotty!
There are also a lot of other non-famous people coming out with albums that I'll give a shout-out to. King Dude, K'Nann, Boys Noize, Ben Gibbard and of course, the band: Godspeed You! Black Emperor and their new album: Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!
What I'm most excited about this week though, is A Fine Frenzy's new album, Pines. If you haven't heard of A Fine Frenzy, I would recommend taking a peek at any, and I mean ANY of their songs. They are wonderful and will make your heart all giddy with joy and sadness and in-between-ness. I'm sure this new album will sound all woodsy and hipstery, so make sure you pack it on your next hipster camping outing.

Built in 1849, this National Historic Landmark, and the men who worked within, added many colorful chapters to Richmond's illustrious past. In less than eighteen months, Gallery5 has transformed this beautiful relic from the past into a vibrant and exciting cacophony of sight and sound, hosting more visitors over those few months than during the entire 25 years of the former museum's operation. Gallery5 was created in effort to save the life of the National Historic Landmark known as Steamer Company No. 5, and to help revitalize the art scene in Richmond by creating a innovative, community- based artistic movement.

Fittingly, a race run to raise awareness of a disease that mostly affects women, was won by a woman.
Former University of Tennessee at Chattanooga distance runner Anneli Uys-Morrison, and current assistant coach for the Mocs, outpaced the field to claim the overall title. She ran through a crowd of walkers to reach the finish line in a time of 18:07.
"I'm not really sure anyone realized I had finished," Morrison said. "There were a lot of people walking and I had to weave through the crowd to reach the line."
Morrison was the 2010 Southern Conference Female Outdoor Track Athlete of the Year and won back-to-back league titles in the 800 and 1500 meter runs. She was a nine-time all-conference performer and qualified for the NCAA track region meet in her last two seasons.

Technical Abstract: Histopathologic diagnoses were compared with the results obtained by hydrated autoclaving immunohistochemistry on brain for the abnormal form of the prion protein (PrP**res) on samples from more than 350 sheep showing clinical signs suggestive of CNS disease or progressive weight loss. When histopathology findings were consistent with scrapie, immunohisto- chemistry results were positive in over 99 percent of the cases. When histopathology findings were suggestive of scrapie, immunohistochemistry results were positive for PrP**res in over 80 percent of the animals. In cases where no diagnosis was established but some lesions characteristic of scrapie were found, i.e., vacuolated neurons and/or spongiform change in the grey matter neuropil, immunohistochemistry results were positive for PrP**res in over 50 percent of animals. The significance of the findings in a scrapie control or eradication program will be discussed.

Train kills Ventura man
Driver crosses unguarded track outside Moorpark
A 36-year-old Ventura sales representative on his way to see a client was killed Monday when he drove in front of an Amtrak train at an unguarded track crossing near Moorpark.
Joseph Tillery was driving north across the tracks that parallel Highway 118 near Hitch Boulevard about 10:20 a.m. when a westbound train broadsided his pickup truck and pushed it about a quarter-mile, said Capt. Cliff Williams of the California Highway Patrol's Moorpark office.
The smaller, dirt-road crossing is next in line to receive crossing arms and gates as part of a publicly funded program to improve private railroad crossings in the area.
Ventura County firefighters extricated Tillery from his mangled pickup truck, but he died at the scene, authorities said.
No injuries were reported among the 125 passengers on the Amtrak Surfliner train, which was coming from Union Station in Los Angeles and headed to Camarillo on its way to Goleta, authorities said. Most of the passengers were stuck on the train for more than three hours until it could be moved.
Tillery was a sales representative for Ventura Steel Inc. and was going to visit some clients, said his mother-in-law, Sharon Barker. Tillery and his wife, Brandi, have a 5-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son.
"Joe," as most people knew him, was a fun-loving guy whom everyone instantly liked, Barker said. "He had the most incredible smile," she said. "Everyone loved him."
Williams said a CHP officer was working at the nearby truck weigh station when he heard the crash and first reported it.
Amy Stephens of Camarillo was on her way back to her job as a dental assistant after picking up her son from school in Simi Valley when she saw the crash, she said. She was watching the train pass when "all of a sudden I just saw a ton of white smoke," she said. "I could tell the (train's) brakes were going."
Stephens said she pulled up next to the tracks and ran up to the pickup truck. She could see the man inside was alive but seriously injured. "He was breathing and he was shaking," she said.
A tow-truck crew eventually used a crane to pull the mangled truck off the front of the train and lift it off the tracks. At 1:34 p.m., the train finally left the scene and headed back toward the Moorpark station, where the passengers were transferred, said Amtrak spokeswoman Vernae Graham. Officials determined the train could not continue on its route because of minor damage.
Two other trains also faced long delays, and others were cancelled, Graham said.
The crash occurred on a road crossing with a stop sign but no signal or gate to warn of oncoming trains.
CHP officers were trying to determine if Tillery stopped at the sign before proceeding across the tracks, Williams said.
"This accident underscores the importance for all drivers who approach an uncontrolled train crossing to make sure to look both ways before crossing," Williams said.
Local officials have long been concerned about the safety of private railroad crossings with no arms, gates or lights to warn drivers about trains in rural areas of Ventura County, including the Highway 118 corridor between Moorpark and Somis.
The Ventura County Transportation Commission, working with private property owners and $1 million in federal funding secured in 2005 and 2007, has improved two private railroad crossings so far, said Darren Kettle, the agency's executive director. The one involved in Monday's crash was next on the list, he said.
"We've got the players at the table. It's just a matter of getting them through the pipeline and getting them fixed," Kettle said.
Generally, each crossing improvement can take 12 to 18 months to design, approve and complete and costs about $200,000, said Kettle, who called the efforts unique.
"I'm not aware of any other place in the country where there are public funds that are used for private crossings with a private railroad," he said.
In 2005, 19 people were injured when an Amtrak train collided with a dump truck at a private, unguarded crossing along Somis Road just north of Camarillo. In 2002, two people died in a span of five months at the same crossing.
In 2000, an Amtrak train carrying 88 people derailed west of Moorpark after slamming into a truck using a private road crossing off Highway 118 between Tierra Rejada Road and Hitch Boulevard. One man was killed and 29 were injured, including 28 train passengers.
Staff writers Anna Bakalis and Zeke Barlow and staff photographer Rob Varela contributed to this report.

On behalf of the Sac and Fox people and their survival, each boy sacrifices himself to be transformed into a sacred presence in the natural world.

Missourians, he believes, responded to tough realities with a sense of humor and still do today. He believes that Missourians have always laughed a lot, often at themselves, and that laughter and humor enabled hardworking farmers, miners, and woodsmen to accept the backbreaking labor that confronted them on a daily basis. Drawing his title from President Harry Truman's autobiography, Plain Speaking, Dr. Nickell uses stories from family histories, oral interviews, court records, and published histories to illustrate his point. The program will be held at the St. Joseph Museum, 3406 Frederick Avenue, at 6 p.m. Admission is free. Refreshments will be served. Please call 816-232-8471 for more information.
Third and Poulin, St. Joseph, 816-232-5861 Museum Hours: Tuesday-Friday 10am-4pm, Saturday & Sunday 1-4pm Admission: Students $1 ages 6-18, Seniors $2.00, Adults $2.50, ages 5 and under free.

Gulfstream: McLaughlin planning a course for It's Tricky
HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. - Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin reported that Breeders' Cup Ladies Classic runner-up Its Tricky is galloping daily at Palm Meadows and could run once and perhaps even twice during the current Gullfstream Park meet.
"It's a long year, and I'm not sure what we'll do with her yet, although the Rampart at the end of March is possible, with a prep in late February in the Sabin a potential stepping-stone to that race," said McLaughlin.
The Grade 3 Rampart will be run on the Florida Derby undercard on March 31.
McLaughlin will also have two other Breeders' Cup starters, Alpha and Rattlesnake Bridge, on hand here this winter.
Alpha, a son of Bernardini, was second behind Union Rags in the Grade 1 Champagne before finishing a disappointing 11th in the Juvenile.
"He was bad in the gate before the Juvenile, lost a lot right there, then was wide around both turns," said McLaughlin. "He might not have liked the track either. The bottom line is that he just didn't do well that day. We've schooled him at the gate since getting him up here at Palm Meadows, he's been good, and I've got him nominated to the stakes on Jan. 1."
McLaughlin was referring to the inaugural Gulfstream Park Derby at 1 1/16 miles on New Years Day.
McLaughlin said Rattlesnake Bridge, who was never a factor in the Classic, was sent to the Vinery in Ocala, Fla., for 45 days after the Breeders' Cup and is due into Palm Meadows shortly.
"The Donn comes up a little quickly, but we could see him run here before the end of the meet," said McLaughlin, who also noted that Soldat is back galloping at Palm Meadows but has yet to work
Soldat, winner of the Grade 2 Fountain of Youth here last winter, has not raced since finishing 11th in the Kentucky Derby.
