1st Lt. Lester Dannenberg
Serial No. 02047966
U. S. Army
Medical Corps
Lt. Dannenberg received the Distinguished Service Cross "For extraordinary heroism in action at Luzon, Philippine Islands, on January 15, 1945. Lt. Dannenberg was in charge of an aid station group attempting to reach an infantry outpost where heavy casualties had been sustained. The advance of the rescue party had to be made through open fields and across two rivers exposed to hostile fire. The commander of the infantry battalion was wounded crossing the first river, Lt. Dannenberg followed close behind and directed his prompt removal to cover. Later when rifle and machine gun fire stopped the rescue party and split the company holding a road block, he repeatedly exposed himself to enemy fire to administer first aid to the men in foxholes and to withdraw the wounded to safety. Though all personnel were warned not to cross a road covered by enemy machine guns, he crossed it repeatedly to reach the other half of the company, where he also rendered medical assistance. On his last trip a litter bearer accompanying him was wounded and Lt. Dannenberg, at the risk of his own life, remained in his exposed position and assisted the disabled man to cover. His complete disregard for his own safety, his courageous actions and outstanding gallantry above and beyond the call of duty are worthy of the highest traditions of the military service."

Boston's public schools are strapped for space at the elementary school level, but they're swimming in seats in the upper grades — where several high schools, including Jeremiah Burke and English High, are operating at less than 50 percent capacity. The system needs both a long-range facilities plan and a flexible attitude to solve its growing pains on one end and its contraction on the other.
Facilities planners have seen this problem coming for several years. But central administrators, including outgoing school Superintendent Carol Johnson, misplayed their hands during a series of school consolidations and closings between 2008 and 2010. Those steps removed some elementary school seats that would be useful today. Now officials are trying to regain some of those lost seats while figuring out the best approach to deal with a glut of 3,000 seats at the high-school level.
The decline in high-school populations won't reverse until the school system gives parents the longer school days and rigorous academic environments that are characteristic of state-authorized charter schools, which are expanding across Boston. The popularity of these charter schools, suspicion of the city's poorly performing middle schools, and demographic shifts point to sparsely attended high schools for many years to come.

Recipe by *~Lissa~*
"A variety of veggies make this interesting side dish versatile. I like to serve chicken in an apple, onion, and curry sauce over the top and sprinkle it with flaked coconut. Can also be made with quinoa, just adjust cooking time."

1 teaspoon
vegetable oil
1/2 small
onion, chopped
1 small
leek, cleaned and thinly sliced
1 stalk
celery, thinly sliced
red bell pepper, chopped
3 cloves
garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups
chicken stock
carrot, grated
tomatoes - peeled, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup
1/4 cup
golden raisins
1/4 cup
dried currants
1 teaspoon
curry powder, or to taste
1 pinch
ground turmeric, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons
sliced almonds
This recipe was a great way to use up the veggies from my farm box. I added a little broccoli to the first round of veggies in the pan, and they cooked just fine. I also realized half way through that I didn't have couscous or quinoa like I thought I had. So, I used arborio rice and made it into a kind of risotto. Took longer to cook but it worked okay in the end. The raisins are the key in this recipe, really good plump raisins. Yum!
I used 1 onion instead of a leek and an onion, 1 large tomato instead of 2 average sized ones, water instead of broth, and raisins as the fruit. This was a tasty salad atop of a lettuce leaf!

This was the first time I have attempted couscous and it was really easy and delicious! I subbed out some ingredients for others but it was still spot on.
so easy and delicious! I added dill to it, just 'cause I happened to have a lot of fresh dill, and it was amazing!

U.S. Labor Secretary Hilda Solis paid as visit to UNM Friday, offering some hope for New Mexico's stuck-in-the-mud economy.
We are still spinning our wheels, while other states are pulling out of the recession - but the Labor Secretary sees hope for some traction at last.
New Mexico saw about 9,200 jobs disappear from Sept. 2011 to Sept. 2012, but Solis told UNM students and staff that there's hope for the creation of so-called STEM jobs in science, technology, engineering and math.
She said creating partnerships between manufacturers and universities and community colleges is the key. For the hard-hit construction trades, Solis said Congress should pass the President's $60 billion infrastructure bill.
"We could create a million jobs just in infrastructure," Solis said in an interview. "I'm talking about modernizing our schools, building out our dams and bridges, our highway system, our light speed rail. That would create, in and of itself, about a million jobs."
For New Mexico's sometimes-struggling renewable energy companies, Solis said she wants to work with lending institution to make more capital available.
"You have small entrepeneurs who maybe have 5 or 6 employees," Solis said. "They don't need a whole lot of people but they do need assets. They need more funding from the banks, more lending so they can help build out their manufacturing base and bring their product to market."
Solis said the Obama Administration wants to eliminate the inequities that give China an advantage in the solar industry.
She talked a lot about manufacturing, which has never been a strong suit in New Mexico.
While manufacturing took a tremendous hit in the recession, the latest numbers from the Labor Department show a growth of 700 jobs statewide since September 2011.

Review for 'Brown Leather Pocket Set (Set of 6)'
Kimberly Martinez
We received the product very quickly and loved that they were just as they were described and the color was spot on. It was also an added bonus that we were able to get them at a great price seriously below anything that we were looking at here at the local billard supply vendors here in Pueblo or in Colorado Springs. Thank you for this. We are very happy with the restore of our pool table.
I would recommend this product to a friend.

On March 30, 2015 at 5 p.m. EDT, to much fanfare and anticipation, the music streaming service Tidal was launched – or rather, relaunched. Mogul and rapper Jay Z has spearheaded the initiative, and the amount of star power packed into his press conference was impressive, but what does the revamped Tidal service mean for the music industry, and more importantly, for the consumer?
Scandinavian tech company Aspiro, which was founded in 1998, launched TIDAL in 2014, a complement to their other streaming service WiMP, which was launched in 2010. Throughout Aspiro's history, the company has acquired various smaller tech startups, numbering at least 13 in total between 2000 and 2008. As of January 30 of this year, Aspiro announced a $56 million takeover bid from Project Panther Bidco, Ltd. Project Panther is indirectly owned and controlled by Shawn Carter, aka, Jay Z. While some shareholders objected to the takeover, claiming it undervalued the growth potential of Aspiro, the bid was accepted on March 13, 2015, with over 90% of shareholders in favor of the acquisition.
TIDAL itself is a relatively young streaming service. What differentiates it from other similar streaming services is that it boasts lossless audio streaming and HD video (currently available only to TIDAL HiFi subscribers), with over 25 million tracks and 75,000 music videos at its disposal at this point in time, with plans to increase the media library. Unlike many other competitors, however, TIDAL is a subscription-only service. Their base-plan, TIDAL Premium, will cost you $9.99 per month, with an option to upgrade to the more high-definition TIDAL HiFi for $19.99 monthly.

What do David Bowie, Beyonce, and Garth Brooks have in common? They all stepped out of themselves to put on a new face and performance for the stage! While many performers have pulled similar stunts, here are our top five alter egos. Hold on to your butts, it's gonna be a weird ride.

The late 1990s were an odd time. We were in the throes of a bull market, Britney Spears was a fresh-faced ingénue with all of her hair intact (and in pigtails), and country-pop was all the rage. We weren't even at war with anyone. It was in this cultural climate of excess and sunny emotions that we were first introduced to the remarkable artiste Chris Gaines.

Part of me feels like I'm getting too old to watch the VMAs. I had to Google a good portion of the artists/celebrities mentioned during the red carpet event prior to the show and found myself thinking more than once, "So this is what the kids like these days, huh?" But I persevered through the entire show... for Beyonce.
Last night, Beyonce was awarded the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award — aka the Lifetime Achievement Award — which is awarded to artists who have greatly impacted music culture. Last year, this award was supplemented by a 15-minute performance by its recipient, Justin Timberlake.
And this year, Beyonce won, and gave us a 16-minute, flawfree medley of the each song from her most recent album (sans "Heaven"). Here's the full performance, including some sweet moments featuring Jay Z and Blue Ivy, too. Enjoy!

Education is a three-way street: teachers, parents, and the students themselves! Schools have students only 6 hours a day, so what about the other 18 hours M-F and all weekend?
Anyone who leaves a purse in a car while they're in a restaurant (why?) should put it under a seat or in the trunk, anywhere out of sight. Or maybe she already knew that.
Let the overlapping arms of friends and strangers wrap around Pam in her sorrow. So tragic.
No, currently children have to be 5 by Dec. 1 to begin kindergarten the previous September (so they're 4 3/4 when school starts). The new law would move the deadline up to Nov. 1 next year,Oct. 1 the year after, and Sept. 1 the year after that. At that age, there is a wide range of development between age 4 3/4 and those born in December who are 5 3/4 when they begin kindergarten. Of course children do not all develop at the same rate (boys exhibit readiness much later than girls, for example) but it has nothing to do with intelligence. Hopefully schools will continue to provide a YoungFives or Pre-K option for children who are kindergarten-eligible but not ready academically, emotionally, and/or socially.
During the winter our daughters were learning to drive, my husband and I took them to an empty area of a mall parking lot and had them learn how to get out of a skid. We also had them drive parallel to the edge so one wheel would go off the paved area to learn how to get back on without over-correcting (also an issue with inexperienced drivers).
And we need to keep reminding them about focused driving... no texting or talking on the phone while driving!
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus
Here's a visual to support your point. It estimates a potential 243 electoral votes for Obama (161 from states that are likely Obama and 82 that lean toward Obama) vs. 170 for Romney, with 125 listed as tossups. Romney would have to win almost every one of those tossup states to win the election -- not likely. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/2012_elections_electoral_college_map.html

There are several recent polls (see earlier post). All of them -- even FOX news -- have Obama beating Ron Paul by an average of 8 percentage points and as many as 12.

The hashtagging has been fun. The nicknames have been cute. But it's time to put a rest to Linsanity.
It's time to acknowledge that Jeremy Lin is not a novelty act, but a real, and talented, basketball player. And a point guard who found his game in a system perfectly tailored for it, at just the right time. None of this happens without a host of contributing factors: desperation of a coach and a team, injuries to star players and opportunity.
Therein is the amazing story. As Mike D'Antoni said, to find exactly what a team needs to turn around a season in the 15th Man is "a once-in-a-lifetime thing."
But the fact that Jeremy Lin is a terrific basketball player is not an amazing story. "The surprising factor is gone,"Landry Fields said after Lin's 38-point, 7-assist performance in the thrilling win over the Lakers on Friday night.
"Now it's just incredible," Fields continued. "I really can't describe it. I hope he does this for the rest of his career."
This is real. This is not Tim Tebow taking the field for the Denver Broncos and playing an entirely different style. This is Lin running D'Antoni's system the way it is supposed to be run. The way Steve Nash ran it when the Suns were the most entertaining show in the NBA.
That more than anything is the real effect of Lin's sudden emergence as a star-quality point guard for the Knicks. His play has brought joy to The Garden, to Knicks fans hungry for something to believe in after so many years of losing and a frustrating start to a highly-anticipated season.
Lin has jolted the locker room, which was already a pretty tight-knit group, with a rush of energy and enthusiasm.
"It's contagious," Fields said. "I think everybody is buying in."
Jared Jeffries still draws groans when he squares up to shoot a jumper, but while it still will take some time for the Garden faithful to appreciate his game, Jeffries' teammates -- and coach -- already do.
In Amar'e Stoudemire's absence, Jeffries has put forth workmanlike efforts and has been terrific on defense and on the boards. And if you watch closely you can see how Stoudemire will work within the system as a pick-and-roll partner with Lin and also as a perimeter outlet when Lin runs the pick-and-roll with Tyson Chandler.
But you can't overlook what Jeffries has done in areas that aren't quantified on the stat sheet. His quick hands get to loose balls, his ability to run the floor helps keep the pace quick and his gritty defense has been a factor in the four straight wins.
In the third quarter the Knicks had two points taken off the board when it was revealed that they were awarded free throws -- two by Chandler -- after one of the official scorer's mistakenly charged a foul to Metta World Peace on a whistle that did not result in a team foul. So it put the Lakers in the foul bonus sooner than they should.
The mistake wasn't discovered until a few plays later during a timeout. The two free throws were taken away from the Knicks, thus cutting their lead from eight points to six.
The issue isn't that the Knicks lost the points as much as it was that they lost possession. It became an advantage for the Lakers, despite the foul.
We made a call to the league to get this explained. Here is Case No. 59 in the NBA Rule Book:
59. What is the ruling if the officials are notified of the following between periods: Team A attempted an unmerited free throw(s) which was successful; Team A did not attempt merited free throw(s) from a common foul.
(1) The point(s) are subtracted if more than 24 seconds have elapsed. (2) The officials shall check the play-by-play and if Team A scored a successful field goal or was awarded free throw attempts as the result of a personal foul on the next possession, the error will be ignored if more than 24 seconds have elapsed. If neither occurred, the offended player will attempt his free throw(s) and play will resume where it was interrupted.
If 24 or less seconds have elapsed, the game clock shall be reset to the time of the foul and the offended player will attempt his free throw(s) and play shall resume as after any free throw attempts, whether made or missed. All play shall be nullified except acts of unsportsmanlike conduct and all flagrant fouls and points scored there-from.
NOTE: Errors which occur in the first or third periods must be discovered and corrected before the start of the next period. Errors which occur in the second period must be discovered and the official scorer notified prior to the officials leaving the floor at the end of the period. The error must be rectified prior to the start of the third period.
The mistake was that free throws were awarded because the Lakers were believed to be in the bonus. The issue is that if the free throws were taken away because of an error, the Knicks should have been given possession. The clock should have reset to the time of the error, but instead they simply wiped the points off the board and continued play. The Lakers had the ball out of the timeout.
In the end, the situation did not cost the Knicks the game, but it is still something you can expect the NBA to review.
Baron Davis -- remember him? -- resumed workouts this week. The team was off from practice on Thursday but he was at MSG Training Center for a personal workout (shooting, running). He also took the court on his own Friday after the team's morning shoot-around. It's as if he is starting all over again, so he has not yet been cleared for contact and there is no timetable set on when he may resume practicing with the team.
Carmelo Anthony (groin strain) will be re-evaluated on Sunday, but remains on the one- to two-week recovery period. Monday will be a week since he suffered the injury early in the win over the Utah Jazz.
As for the concerns in New York that Melo won't be able to play with Lin dominating the ball as the point guard, Kobe Bryant has a message for you:
"I think Melo having the ball in his hands in this town is overrated," Bryant told reporters after the game. "I mean, I've played with him. The ball is in his hands and then it's gone... He's not going to be a facilitator, so people need to stop expecting that from him. That can be Jeremy Lin's job. Melo can put the ball in the basket and let him do what he does best."

The Elite isn't the only villainous opponent the Man of Steel faces in SUPERMAN VS. THE ELITE. Here is an official clip, courtesy of Warner Home Video, that features Superman battling the Atomic Skull.
In SUPERMAN VS. THE ELITE, Superman's effectiveness as a super hero comes into question when a new group of super powerful crusaders, known as "The Elite," appear on the scene. As super heroes, the Elite know no bounds, and are more than willing to kill, even on a massive scale, to stop villainy -- putting them on a collision course with the ever-ethical, yet preferably non-lethal Man of Steel.
The all-new, PG-13 rated film is scripted by award-winning comics writer Joe Kelly and the story is adapted from his original 2001 DC Comics release, "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice and the American Way?" The single-issue comic, Action Comics #775, was lauded by Wizard Magazine as the "Greatest Superman Story of All Time," and ranked the epic tale at No. 21 on its list of the "Top 100 Comics of the last 30 years."

Author Bio
One of the best-selling authors of all time, Agatha Christie spearheaded the golden age of mysteries with the creation of such unforgettable characters as Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple. Known for her suspenseful yet cozy mysteries, Christie was a master at keeping the reader guessing until the very last pages, establishing many of her genre's most classic and popular devices. Born in Torquay to an American father with a modest inheritance, she spent most of her life in England with frequent trips to the Middle East, where some of her novels are set. In 1914 she married her first husband, air force pilot Colonel Archibald Christie. After the war, she gave birth to her only child, Rosalind. She published her first book, "The Mysterious Affair at Styles", in 1920. Creating one of the greatest controversies of her career, she mysteriously disappeared in 1926, and though people feared the worst, she turned up in a hotel room with what she claimed to be a case of amnesia brought on by stress, and refused to ever talk about the incident again. In 1930 she met and married an archaeologist, Sir Max Mallowan, and her first play, "Black Coffee", was produced. Christie went on to write "Mousetrap", which debuted in 1954 and was the longest-running play in the history of London's West End. That year, she also served as president of the Detection Club and was awarded the first of many Grand Master Awards from the Mystery Writers of America.

The "Dances with Wolves" actor arrested on an aggravated DWI charge in Santa Fe is apologizing to authorities.
Wes Studi released a statement on Monday about the incident:
"I want to apologize to law enforcement officers for my behavior that evening. Though it wasn't apparent, I do have the highest respect for law enforcement."
Studi said while he couldn't discuss his legal situation, he also wanted to apologize to his family, friends and supporters.
Officers found Studi with two left tires blown out on Old Pecos Trail around 1 a.m. last Friday.
On dash cam video released by police, Studi admits to drinking and driving. At one point he tells officers, "I was driving drunk? Hell Yeah! On the other hand what the F*** for? What the F*** for?"
Studi has pleaded not guilty to the charge.

Do any of you have any thoughts on this issue?
I have many thoughts on this issue.
Keep any large bag work to a minimum. Yes, you will damage yourself. As a former practitioner and highly ranked professional who now has arthritis from heavy bag work, I hope you follow my advice.
You are better off working on small bags. Develop speed over brute force. Remember Speed = Power.
Thai boxing is a very good style. I used to do a lot of it back in the day. I studied 32 styles and became an instructor in many of them. Some I never bothered to grade in but know the syllabus up to and beyond 3rd dan.
Here is a shot of me during a visit to a mate's house. I am in the air. Ignore the belt. It's my friends uniform. It's so strange that I only ever took photos during this period. There's about 20 years unaccounted for in my martial arts history with regard to images. It's the same with bands and gigs. I went through my album and you'd think I'd only been in one band. This photo is from many years ago now.
And develop control.

As we are all aware, before he rode the Greyhound to Hollywood and assumed control of show business comedy as we know it, your beloved Soup boss Joel McHale grew up living a hardscrabble existence in small town New Jersey where Scrabble is extremely hard, sweating it out on the streets of a runaway American dream.
Last night the folks back in Asbury Park were no doubt proud as McHale got a chance to honor the words of the other boss during perhaps the best Emmy ceremony in television history.
Now, in case you were too wrapped up in Bridezillas and missed the magic, here's some classic McHale.
There are plenty more laughs in the Soup blog video gallery. And be sure to check out these other Big Moments from last night's kudo fest.

The men made it off the cash, and police would like your help in finding them.
The first man is described as a 5'10" black male with a medium build. Police say he was wearing a green military coat at the time.
The second suspect is a slender black male around 6' tall. At the time he was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt.
Both men had semi-automatic handguns. Anyone with information can call the College Station police department, at 979-764-3600.

This place is amazing. The food is very good and very affordable! The portions are huge so I recommend splitting a salad and a pizza or a salad and an entree with one or two people. For pizza pick your favorite and for entrees the lasagna and rosemary chicken are great!! However, not a great delivery spot. My experience dining in has been much much better!
Posted by anonymous on 03/03/2009
Graziella's is some of the best pizza I've had in NY. I was surprised by poor reviews about atmosphere - it is definitely an informal place, but great for families, comfortable, with great rooftop seating in nice weather. I like that it is a family owned establishment and I have always found everyone who works there to be super friendly and welcoming. Good news about the later delivery hours!
Posted by -local on 12/21/2008
I dont understand why they make the delivery service so complicated... Just deliver whenever youre open. is that so hard? other than that food is great.
Posted by doco on 11/15/2008
we didn't even know that they actually deliver later now so we ordered early and it shouldn't bbe busy at 430p. we ordered a meat small pizza and a small pizza w/1/2 roasted peppers and we ended up with 1 plain small pizza at the meat pizza price of $15 and the other pizza was correct. So we will never pay and let the delivery guy go in the future without actually looking at the pizzas since we paid an extra $6 for nothing
Posted by ms fort greene32 on 10/02/2008
what atmosphere? kids running around like crazy and the place is not cute at all. this place is only good and fit for families. no full bar. they close early. staff is friendly but not trained properly, no knowledge of winelist and cant describe food items professionally. since il porto (sadly its down on flushing) opened there is another option for dining out if you crave this kind of food. otherwise just get delivery from graziella and you are lucky if it comes in 50 minutes.
Posted by Phil on 09/27/2008
I just recieved the most wonderful news. Graziella's now deilvers till 9pm 7 days. After 4 years they gave in to temptation. Pizza holds up pretty good to. The actual crust was still crispy 35 min later. I am so excited.
Posted by Sabina on 09/20/2008
Wonderful pizza in a real wood burning oven. The only place that I know that has artichokes as a topping.

Super easy and delis....I used more pepers for my own taste a great alternative to tarter sauce I made this with the catfish cakes from this site. An out of this world combination!
Y-U-M-M-Y! This was very very tasty! Both my husband and I are not crazy about tarter sauce so I thought I'd try this. It was sooo good! Nice alternative. I will definitely use this again. I didn't put it on a sandwhich, but used the oven-fried catfish recipe (also on this site) with it. I did use light mayo (healthier and delicious) and bumped up the ketchup, dill pickle, and worchestishire for my personal liking. Let it set a few minutes at least before serving.
Fantastic. Used the sauce for our Salmon Burgers... with a little arugula. Yum!!
I really liked the recipe.
This sauce was really good, i did not have any peppers so i used cayenne pepper, still tasted great
Yum-O-Licious!!! I followed the recipe and then added a few peppers (we like spicy). An instant favorite. Thanks for a great recipe!!

Gestational Trophoblastic Disease
Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a group of rare tumors that grow inside a woman's uterus when she is pregnant. These tumors develop in the cells that form the placenta, which surrounds an embryo during pregnancy.
Types of Gestational Trophoblastic Diseases
One type of GTD is hydatidiform moles, which are mostly benign. Sometimes they can develop into invasive moles, or, rarely, into choriocarcinoma, which spreads quickly. The good news is these moles are highly sensitive to chemotherapy and have a very good prognosis.
Another type of GTD is trophoblasts, which typically do not spread to other areas of the body, but they can grow into the muscle layer of the uterus. These tumors are usually surgically removed.
In most cases, the treatment produces a complete cure.

Plans in place to make sure empty Cheltenham shops are filled quickly
Posted: January 23, 2013|
SHOPS which could take over Cheltenham's HMV site are already being lined up – even though the future of the store remains undecided.
The troubled music store entered administration last week after a poor Christmas and continued competition from downloads.
Game is currently among the companies interested in taking on the chain.
But James Tibbles, director at Larraby Land, who owns a number of units in the town centre, is landlord of the current HMV site in High Street.
Related content
He said plans were already in place to make sure the site does not go empty for too long but would not reveal exact details.
Martial Arts school, Karate World, which used to be situated above HMV, had already moved out to larger premises in Albion Street.
Mr Tibbles said: "The tenancy agreement for HMV has been extended for the next two to three months while they decide what happens next. We are speaking to various people about the place."
The Disney store in Beechwood Shopping Centre closed this month, but Beechwood Shopping Centre manager Owen Acland puts this down to decisions on a national level.
He said: "It is not a fair reflection on how the high street in Cheltenham is doing.
"It is not the case of the street doing badly, or the store. I knew for a fact that Disney was trading well, and I believe HMV was doing well.
"They are victims of decisions made on a much higher level, and not indicative of how the individual shops do.
"It is important to remember that this closure and the situation at HMV are not localised issues."
He added that there were plans to bring in the "right" retailer to take over the previous Disney site.
"We are speaking to a few people about it at the moment, but it is important it is not empty for too long," Mr Acland said.
"We are open to offers from the right kind of retailer. Because it is in such a prominent location, we want to make sure a good brand comes and takes over.
"For us, the sooner that happens, the better. It has to be the right tenant and we also want the right one in town to bring something to the high street in Cheltenham."
Town centre manager Martin Quantock said it was important to ensure the units were filled quickly.
He added: "We need something to come into these units as soon as possible to bridge the gaps."

The disclosure concerns a press device for a paper making machine, and particularly concerns an extended nip press. A hollow tubular, stationary support body extends around a supporting beam, which is a flexing beam. Hydraulic piston-cylinder combinations extend between the beam and the supporting body in a press plane. A radially non-displaceable press shoe is supported on the support body and faces toward a counter-roll to define a press nip between them. The outwardly facing surface of the press shoe is concave in the circumferential direction of the support body. The amount of pressure in the hydraulic supporting means determines the press force which prevails in the press zone.
1. A press for web material, comprising:
a counter-roll;
a stationary support body with a continuous, generally cylindrical outer surface, the body being hollow within itself; an elastically deformable, tubular shell supported around the support body and rotatable therearound;
a press shoe attached to the outer surface of the support body and non-movable radially of the support body; the press shoe having a pressing surface which is concavely shaped in the circumferential direction of the support body and which faces outwardly of the support body and faces toward the counter-roll for pressing against the shell and a web between the shell and the counter-roll, thereby defining a press nip in which a pressing force is exerted between the press shoe and the counter-roll;
a flexing beam extending through the hollow support body;
hydraulic supporting means for exerting a force for supporting the support body, the hydraulic supporting means being located between the beam and the support body; means for varying the force exerted by the hydraulic supporting means both for adjusting the pressing force between the press shoe and the counter-roll and for controlling sagging of the support body.
2. The press device of claim 1, wherein the shell has opposite longitudinal ends;
the device further comprising rotatably mounted shell tensioning disks mounted on the support body and rotatable around the support body; the tensioning disks being connected with the ends of the shell; means for biasing at least one of the disks for axially tensioning the shell.
3. The press device of claim 2, further comprising bearing sleeves fastened to the support body and the tensioning disks being on the bearing sleeves.
4. The press device of claim 1, wherein the support body has opposite ends; the device further comprising a respective disk at each end of the support body; the disks being fixed against rotation on the beam; the support body resting at its ends on the disks; the support body being radially displaceable relative to the beam in the press plane passing through and along the press nip.
5. The press device of claim 1, further comprising means for cooling the support body.
6. The press device of claim 5, wherein the beam and the support body are respectively so shaped that a space is defined between them, the support body having opposite ends, the space having lateral sides at the opposite ends; the press device further comprising means at the ends of the support body for sealing off the lateral sides of the space thus defined; the cooling means comprising a coolant in the space for cooling the support body from within the space.
7. The press device of claim 6, wherein the cooling means further comprises feeding means for feeding coolant to the space.
8. The press device of claim 7, further comprising means for removing coolant from the space.
9. The press device of claim 8, wherein the removing means comprises a suction line into the space.
10. The press device of claim 7, wherein there is a lubricant between the shell and the support body.
11. The press device of claim 10, wherein the coolant and the lubricant are different respective fluids.
12. The press device of claim 1, wherein the hydraulic supporting means comprises at least one pressure cylinder-piston combination between the beam and the support body located substantially underneath the press shoe for adjusting sagging of the support body relative to the beam.
13. The press device of claim 12, wherein the hydraulic supporting means comprises a plurality of pressure cylinder-piston combinations between the beam and the support body and all of these combinations being located substantially underneath the press shoe and extending along the axial length of the press shoe for adjusting sagging of the support body relative to the beam along the axial length of the support body.
14. The press device of claim 12, wherein the hydraulic supporting means comprises two pressure cylinder-piston combinations circumferentially offset from each other and adapted for being acted upon by different respective pressures.
15. The press device of claim 1, wherein the press shoe is supported to the support body generally in a press plane, the press device further comprising additional supporting means between the support body and the beam in a plane outside the press plane for operating to reduce the sag of the support body in a direction across the press plane.
16. The press device of claim 15, wherein the additional supporting means are hydraulic.
17. The press device of claim 1, further comprising a scraper strip on the support body and extending toward the shell for rubbing the interior of the shell which is rotating past the support body, the scraper strip being formed of a felt material.
18. The press device of claim 17, further comprising lubricant feed means in the support body for feeding lubricant to the inside of the shell; the scraper strip being disposed directly downstream of the lubricant feed means with respect to the direction of motion of the shell.
The invention concerns a press device for web-shaped material, and particularly for removing water from a web of paper in a paper machine. More particularly, the invention relates to an extended nip press.
A press device includes a stationary tubular support body that is supported around a stationary beam. A flexible, elastic shell extends around the support body and moves around it. A press shoe in the support body presses the shell against a counter roller or mating roller. The press shoe has a circumferentially elongate concave surface for defining an extended press nip with the counter roller. The press nip is formed relatively long in the circumferential direction. Pressure is exerted on a web of paper, which passes through the press nip together with a felt belt. The web and felt travel over a longer path of travel in an extended press nip than in a traditional roll press that consists of two rolls. In other words, higher "press momentum" (product of the press pressure times the time of pressure) is exerted on the web of paper than in a standard press nip.
Federal Republic of Germany Application DE-OS No. 31 26 492 shows guiding the press shoe for radial displacement directly in a flexing support beam or shows combining the press shoe and the flexing beam into a single structural part. A support body for also guiding the elastic shell outside of the press zone is not present.
In U.S. Pat. No. 4,287,021, a press shoe (formed in two parts) is also guided for radial movement directly within a flexing beam. The pressure within a pressure chamber located between the flexing beam and the press shoe is variable so as to adjust the press force. For the guidance of the elastic shell, which is open toward the outside at both of its edges, a support body is used. However, this reference does not suggest that the body rests on the flexing beam. It is merely guided on the outer sides thereof. Thus, it is not possible in this case to control the sag of the support body by means of the flexing beam.
The present invention is an improvement upon the press device shown in FIG. 5 of Federal Republic of Germany Application DE-OS No. 31 02 526. In that device, a press shoe is arranged on a roll-shaped support body that is in the form of a hollow beam. The press shoe is movable radially relative to the support body. Also, the support body is movable radially with respect to a supporting beam that is capable of flexing. Therefore, hydraulic pressure chambers are necessary between both the flexing beam and the support body supported by the beam and between the support body and the press shoe. This results in a relatively high structural expense. Furthermore, the two pressure-chamber systems, which are arranged in series, may lead to a lack of stability.
The object of the invention is to avoid the above-described lack of stability at the least possible structural expense.
According to the invention, a beam that extends through the support body is capable of flexing. Hydraulic means support the support body on the beam. The press shoe is fastened to the support body to be immovable radially with respect to the support body. The press force exerted by the hydraulic means is variable to adjust the pressing force in the pressing zone.
The invention is based on the realization that an extended press nip need only have a single hydraulic supporting means arranged between the beam and the support body, and that the supporting means fulfills two functions. On the one hand, it controls sagging of the support body. On the other hand, it adjusts the press force to be applied in the press zone and adapts it to the specific requirements. There is no need for a hydraulic pressure chamber between the support body and the press shoe and no need for radial mobility of the press shoe relative to the support body. The invention also permits the support body to be of relatively light construction, i.e. it need not have flexural rigidity. In operation, the support body, together with the press shoe, rests against the counter-roll. Under the action of the hydraulic supporting device, the support body and the shoe develop a sag which corresponds to the counter-roll. It is beneficial for the support body and the press shoe to assume a uniform sag because the elastic shell can rotate without danger of twisting.
The axial ends of the shell are guided by rotatably mounted tensioning disks. The tensioning disks are mounted on the flexing beam which is disclosed in FIG. 3 of Federal Republic of Germany Application DE-OS No. 31 26 492. Alternatively, it is possible to mount the tensioning side disks on the support body. In this way, the tensioning disks follow radial movement of the support body relative to the flexing beam so that deformation of the edge regions of the elastic shell is kept small.
At each of its axial ends, the support body rests against a disk which is fixed to the flexing beam. These disks (or "slide blocks") can transmit the frictional forces acting on the press shoe in simple fashion from the support body to the beam. The radial mobility of the support body relative to the beam is retained.
The support body may be cooled, particularly by a coolant placed between the support body and the beam. That region is sealed off to contain the coolant. Coolant infeed and removal is from that region. These cooling features can also be used independently of the main concept of the present invention (as, for instance, they can be used in the press device of German Application DE-OS No. 31 02 526). The cooling of the rotating elastic shell is effected predominantly by its contact with the support body. The heat of friction in this connection is given off predominantly to the support body via the lubricant that is present between the shell and the support body, and the heat is not removed as previously by the lubricant. From the support body, the heat of friction passes to a coolant, which is different from the lubricant, and the coolant conducts the heat to the outside. A fluid can be used as the coolant whose specific heat is substantially greater than that of ordinary lubricants. Thus, the total quantity of liquid that is to be circulated is less than previously. The coolant can be passed through channels in the support body or, even more simply, the coolant can be sprayed onto the inside of the support body, particularly if the support body is shell-shaped with thin walls.
Other objects and features of the invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view through a press device, taken along the line I--I of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view along the line II--II of FIG. 1.
A press device of the invention includes a stationary support body 10 which is developed as a hollow cylindrical body with a continuous, generally cylindrical outer surface. A press shoe 11 is fastened on the outer surface of the support body in a press plane. The shoe is radially fixed on the support body. A radially thin, flexible, elastically deformable, tubular shell 12 is supported to rotate around the stationary support body 10 and the press shoe 11 and to rotate between the shoe 11 and a counter-roll 13. The shell is comprised of a lubricant tight or lubricant blocking plastic, for instance, polyurethane.
The press shoe 11 has a radially outward application surface that is concave circumferentially of the press device. The application surface of the press shoe, together with a part of the circumference of the counter-roll 13, forms a press zone which is extended in the circumferential direction. Besides the shell 12, two felt belts 14 and 15 and a web of paper 16 between the felts pass through this press zone. Water is to be removed from the web of paper in the press zone.
A flexing beam 17 extends lengthwise through the support body 10. The main part of the beam 17 is located within the support body 10. It is preferably of box shape. Hollow journal pins 18 are fastened on and extend axially from the two ends of the main part of the beam 17. In order that the flexing beam 17, 18 be able to bend, the journal pins 18 rest via spherical bushings 19 in a machine frame 20. The beam 17, 18 is prevented from rotating by an anti-turning device, not shown.
A disk 21 is fastened to each of the ends of the support body 10. Each disk has an approximately rectangular cutout 22 that is adapted to the cross-section of the beam 17 on which they are disposed. The cutouts 22 are shaped such that the support body 10, 21, together with the press shoe 11, can be displaced in the direction toward the counter-roll 13 or away from it, and the disks 21 are at the same time secured against rotation. There are a plurality of hydraulic cylinders 23 arranged in an axial row between the beam 17 and the support body 10. These are shown in the press plane at the press shoe and the counter-roll. A pressure conduit 24 with a control valve 25 leads to these cylinders. When the hydraulic cylinders 23 are acted on by pressure, the support body 10, together with the press shoe 11, is pressed against the counter-roll 13. The amount of the pressing force can be controlled by means of the valve 25. If necessary, some of the hydraulic cylinders 23 can be acted on with different pressures if it is desired to exert different pressing forces along the support body which is over the width of the paper web 16.
Instead of the single cylinder 23 shown in the press plane of FIG. 1, two cylinders which can be acted on with different pressures can be arranged circumferentially offset from or even alongside of each other. This permits variation of the distribution of the pressing force within the pressing zone in the direction of travel of the shell 12. For this purpose, it is advisable to rigidly attach the press shoe 11 to the support body 10. In FIG. 1, in contrast, a joint 9 has instead been provided between support body 10 and press shoe 11 so that the press shoe 11 can incline around the axis of that joint and can thus adapt itself more easily to the counter-roll 13.
For lubricating the slide surface between the support body 10 and the shell 12, there are a few lubricating grooves 26, 26' which extend parallel to the axis of the roller and are distributed at intervals over the circumference of the support body 10. The lubricant feed line 27, 28 and 29 delivers lubricant to the grooves 26.
Immediately behind or downstream of the lubricating grooves 26, as seen in the direction of rotation, there may be scraper strips 30, which uniformly distribute the lubricant over the inner surface of the shell 12. The scraper strips 30 are preferably made of felt. This material is particularly good at stabilizing the lubricating film on the very smooth inner surface of the shell 12 which is made of a lubricant-tight plastic, for instance, polyurethane. The scraper strips could also be used in other press devices, for instance, in connection with the devices known from German Application DE-OS No. 31 02 526 or U.S. Pat. No. 4,287,021.
Where the shell 12 enters the press zone, part of the lubricant is scraped off from the shell 12 by the press shoe 11 and this is removed via channels 31, 32. Nevertheless, sufficient lubrication of the application surface of the press shoe 11 must be provided.
For tensioning the flexible shell 12 in the circumferential direction, an axially extending tensioning strip 33 is provided. It applies a slight force against the inside of the shell through the action of hydraulic cylinders 34.
To tension the shell in the axial direction, each of its ends is fastened to a rotatable disk 35. This disk rests, via antifriction bearings 36, on a bearing ring 37 which rests in an axially displaceable, but non-rotatable, manner on a bearing sleeve 38. The bearing sleeve 38 is fastened to the support body 10, 21 and participates in the radial movement of displacement of the body. Compression springs 39 displace the bearing ring 37 axially toward the outside and thus tension the shell 12. Alternatively, the bearing ring 37 can also be arranged directly on the journal pin 18 of the flexing beam 17.
Sealing means 40 are provided at the rectangular cutouts 22 of the disks 21 of the support body 10. These seal off the space that is present between the support body 10 and the flexing beam 17 laterally from the outside. This enables the support body 10 to be cooled by spraying it with a coolant, preferably water. In this way, it is possible to remove at least a large part of the heat of friction which is produced on the slide surface between the shell 12 and the support body 10. A smaller part of that heat has already been removed at 31, 32 along with the lubricant.
Spray pipes 41 feed the cooling liquid (FIG. 1). The cooling liquid collects in the lower region of the space in the support body 10, which forms a sump 42 there. Either a suction pipe 43 cooperates with a vacuum that is produced within the flexing beam 17, 18, or the pressure in the space between the beam 17 and the surrounding support body 10 is raised for conducting the heated cooling liquid through the pipe 43 to the outside of the press device through the beam 17, 18. Instead of the spray pipes 41, cooling channels (not shown) could also be provided within the support body 10. The structural expense for this would, however, be greater.
Under certain circumstances, it must be expected that the support body 10 will sag transversely to the press plane e under the friction forces between the shell 12 and the press shoe 11. Such a sagging would cause the distribution of the press force within the press zone in the direction of travel of the shell to be different, for instance, in the region of the edges of the web of paper, than it is in the central region of the web of paper. This sagging transversely to the press plane can be counteracted by at least one additional cylinder-piston unit 50 which is arranged on the entrance side of the press nip between the beam 17 and the support body 10. On the opposite circumferential side, at least one such cylinder-piston unit (not shown) can also be provided. In the latter case, different pressures are established in the two units, so that the desired sag compensation is obtained. In addition, these units damp any vibrations which may occur.
Although the present invention has been described in connection with a preferred embodiment thereof, many variations and modifications will now become apparent to those skilled in the art. It is preferred, therefore, that the present invention be limited not by the specific disclosure herein, but only by the appended claims.

LILBURN - From Jimmy Carter Boulevard to Gwinnett Place Mall, the county's interchanges with Interstate 85 will soon be planted with trees, shrubs and wildflowers.This week, two community improvement districts approved plans that will sod and landscape the ramps, beautifying what they hope will be gateways to the county and their communities. The Gwinnett Village CID will spend no more than $780,000 to landscape the interchanges at Jimmy Carter Boulevard, Indian Trail-Lilburn Road and Beaver Ruin Road, while the Gwinnett Place CID will pay no more than $297,000 for landscaping at Steve Reynolds Boulevard and the south ramps of Pleasant Hill Road. The road's north ramps are part of a major overhaul of I-85's interchange with Ga. Highway 316. Community leaders said the plans will help distinguish Gwinnett and the districts as drivers come through the area. "This is the front door," said Chuck Warbington, executive director of the Gwinnett Village CID. "It's just going to be an outstanding project. It's really going to put us on the map as the front door to Gwinnett." In that CID, leaders hope that money spent on landscaping will help improve the image of the area and deter crime. Warbington said the intent of the oak trees, crepe myrtle, holly bushes, daisies and other items that will be planted is to have year-round color up and down I-85. "It helps with the perception of cleaning up the area," he said. Joe Allen, the executive director of the Gwinnett Place CID, said he hopes to expand the plantings into the north ramps at Pleasant Hill once construction is complete, possibly with the help of the construction company. Both self-taxing districts are footing the entire bill for the improvements. The Gwinnett Place CID is also considering adding signs and banners to brand the area and direct drivers through the CID. Allen said the steps will help people identify the communities. Gwinnett Village CID board member Bruce Le'Vell said that identification and a positive perception of the CID is imperative to the area's future. "Image is critical," he said. "Critical, critical, critical."

A lack of volunteers threatens the future of many annual summer events in the North Country.
For events happening from late May to early September, a lack of volunteers can turn a day of fun into a faded memory.
Here are some examples around the North Country.
First: The Labor Day Celebration in Au Sable Forks. Before, the event lasted for two days. On the first day, the grounds would be crowded with both guests and volunteers. An array of games and food booths were available along with a huge bingo game in the gym, a chicken barbecue, pie roulette, dunking booth and a bounce house. On the second day, the same events would happen, along with a parade in the morning.
Today, the gathering lasts for just a day, and after the closing of Holy Name School and St. Matthews Church, the town struggles to keep its tradition going. Now, the parade runs on the first day. All of the food and game booths remain, but many of the dedicated volunteers that ran them are no longer there. People who had been running the same booths for years have either died or have become too old to help. The few people who remain struggle to recruit new volunteers.
Second: "Champ Day" in Port Henry and Moriah. Before, it was a day to recognize the folklore surrounding the alleged Lake Champlain creature Champ, and pay tribute to the more than 300 documented sightings of the creature. "Champ Day" took place on the first Sunday of August. The event included sidewalk sales, street vendors, entertainment, children's games and pony rides, among other things.
Today, "Champ Day" has been officially discontinued after 31 years. The event ended for multiple reasons, including the recession and the Champlain Bridge closure for two years. Because of this, the town decided to put "Champ Day" on hold until the economy righted itself. The economy has been recovering, but "Champ Day" has yet to be reinstated, mainly because of a lack of volunteers.

Here are a few examples of Google Maps presented to you by web-video (QuickTime and Flash are required). Both of these visuals will help you understand the evolution of a Google Maps mashup - literally from start to finish!
The first video clips are for those of you tackling the Google Maps API to create all these awesome Google Maps mashups. This person has created a 2-part instructional video covering the Google Maps API and how to integrate a Google Map into your website. The pace is good, and the speaker is very thorough in his explanations. Here are the links:
Phase I: will get you up and going with a simple google map.
Phase II: We will take your address and build a google map on the fly, If you don't have the longitude or latitude, we will do a SOAP call to ServiceObjects.com get the longitude or Latitude coordinates, then update the database, so we don't have to do the SOAP call again, then we show your map, best of all you can download working code here.
(Macromedia Flash required for both)
Both clips are linked from this page.
The second video is an 8 minute screencast demonstrating the Google Maps interface and the GMap Pedometer Google Maps tool. The creators of the video show, with the Gmaps pedometer, how far John Lennon would have had to walk to visit Paul McCartneys house when they were living in Liverpool, UK. :)
Folks - let me know if this clip doesn't open for you. I'm not sure if it's just my version of QuickTime.
(Apple QuickTime is required)
Have fun! :)

I love this little journal...I love the places for pictures...and such...I put my grandchildren and friends and special little things just to me in it. Personalizing it more and giving more than just words to my journal has given me the opportunity to share more of who I am in different ways. It has been quite fun...I am disappointed that it is being discontinued...
This journal is better for a younger person, as it has places to paste in pictures and other uses, other than just a writing journal with lines (which was what I wanted). Not sure who I'll give it to now, but if you have a teen to buy for, this is the right journal for them. The spiral binding is great, as you can lay it flat, but I wouldn't buy this for an adult or anyone looking for a journal with lines on each page.

The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) announced Monday that 267 schools in Illinois will participate in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) during the 2012-13 school year.
The schools, both public and private that already participate in the National School Lunch Program, will share equally in more than $4.9 million, up from last year's grant amount of $4.7 million that served 215 schools.
"This is a valuable federal program that improves access to great fruits and vegetables," said Illinois State Board of Education Chairman Gery J. Chico. "This program helps children from low-income families feed their minds and bodies with good nutrition and promotes healthy habits for life."
The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program requires participating schools to allocate between $50 to $75 per enrolled student, with the majority of those funds being spent on fresh produce. Program funding runs through June 30, 2013.

As far as I can see there doesn't seem to be a thread on this guy and I really don't know why.
So here is a place to chat about the guy. Who knows...he may even show up so you can ask him a few questions. Lets see.
As a Meinl player myself I'm really diggin his new cymbal set up. I might get myself some extra dry hats too.
Does anyone know anything about how he tunes his drums? Anyway, check him out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSd6txgFsDQ
Re: Mike Johnston
Not to be that guy but, http://www.drummerworld.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=56217
Oddly enough though, I had to run a Google search to find it, but I tried the search function for the forum specifically and that wasn't able to find it.
Re: Mike Johnston
awesome teacher i have learnt some sweet licks from him and he is really funny which makes his teaching amazin
Re: Mike Johnston
Johnston is the guy that really got me into wanting to be a teacher. Love the way he presents the information, super cool, laidback, and funny. Thats exactly how I approach my students. He's in my top five players i would want to study and hang with. Also out of all the online/youtube vidoes i've seen i took away the most from him. Peace John bag out.
Re: Mike Johnston
He is a great teacher and I really dig his lessons. He explains things in an easy way so every student can understand
Re: Mike Johnston
I love Mike's drumming. And his drums sound out of this world.
Re: Mike Johnston
I got to see Mike last year in April at a clinic here at Sam Ash in Phoenix and it was SOOOOOO INSPIRATIONAL!!!! I am trying to get better all the time thanks to him. He is also one of the coolest people I have ever met. He is an amazing player as well.

Gnosall pool rivals climb league table
Posted: April 07, 2014|
LOCAL rivals, Horns and the Navigation from Gnosall are gradually climbing the Newport and District Pool League ladder.
Horns moved into the top seven, thanks to a better games difference from the Navigation, after sinking visiting Railway Tavern 5-1.
Showing winning form for the Horns, who chalked up their seventh league success, were Wayne Baker, Dave Jolley and Martyn Holford.
Meanwhile, Navigation visited sixth place Pheasant B and pulled off an excellent 4-2 triumph.

Scott Smith, A Crossley, Steve Whitlock took three singles for the Navigation, while Luke Jones replied. Honours were then shared in the doubles, Smith and Crossley having secured the win.
But it was not the best of weeks for the Norbury based Junction teams.
The A side crashed 6-0 at second place Stag Market Drayton, while the B team slipped to a 4-2 defeat at the hands of visiting Newport Legion.
Other results: King's Head B 0 King's Head A 6, RNC Seals 6-0 walkover Shakespeare A, Wheatsheaf 3 Pheasant A 3, LSC at the Tavern 4 Haberdashers Arms 2, Shakespeare B 4 RNC Veterans 2.

Gear Review
Better than advertised
This is a great wind and rain blocker. I wore it on a cycling trip in the wettest summer Belgium has ever(?) had. Wind and rain for 5-6 hours per day! I'd say for the first four hours I was quite dry. After that, it gets a bit overwhelmed, but for its lightness and ease of packing, I've rated it quite highly.

Bryan Sangid said they gave it to him, but he wasn't about to give it back.
Sangid came from behind to win the Tri-Cities Amateur Championship on Sunday, and he did it without breaking or matching par in either round at Blackthorn Club.
"That surprised me a little bit," said Sangid, a 30-year-old Blackthorn member. "They kind of gave it to me, but it's good to win. It's my first trophy of the year."
Sangid posted his second 73 and his two-over-par total of 146 won by two strokes over fellow Blackthorn member Matthew Smith, who shot a pair of 74s.
Carlson Cox finished tied for sixth and won the season-long Tri-Cities Amateur Tour player of the year award.
Meanwhile, Tony Green held onto his big lead and won the senior division by four strokes over Mike Freels, who captured his second senior player of the year award.
Sangid added another title to his impressive list of championships in his amateur career. He's also captured the East Tennessee Amateur, the Graysburg Hills Amateur and the Ridgefields Invitational.
Nick York began the day with a two-stroke lead over Sangid. Bogeys on the first two holes from York made it a tight race.
York fell from contention with double bogeys on the eighth and ninth holes.
"I just got off to a bad start and then things went haywire," said York, who shot 78 and wound up third, three strokes behind the winner.
As a former club champion at Blackthorn, Sangid has seen a round or two go down the tubes at the quirky par-five eighth with a creek running down the middle of a split fairway and the just plain tough ninth.
"You expect to make a birdie on eight and then you can make a bogey real easy," Sangid said. "And nine, if you hit it left, there's trouble. And there's trouble on your second shot. If you come away with pars on eight and nine, you did OK."
Sangid bogeyed the ninth, but still picked up three strokes on York on the two holes. At That point, David Talley had assumed the lead before dumping his third shot at the par-five 10th into a creek that fronts the green. A couple of ensuing birdies put Talley in position to win, but a triple bogey at the par-three 16th doomed his chances. He finished tied for sixth.
Cox, a red-shirt junior at the University of Memphis, has won the player of the year award both years the Tri-Cities Amateur Tour has been in existence. He clinched the points title with a tie for sixth place.
"I wanted to win this tournament because I had a really good shot last year," said Cox, who won the East Tennessee Amateur and Ridgefields Invitational this summer. "I knew I wanted to win the points again. It's a good feeling. Before I turn pro, I want to win all the invitationals and keep the points lead."
In the senior competition, Green began the day with an eight-stroke lead and he didn't figure to do anything to give it all away.
Shortly after three-putting the 16th hole, green made a triple bogey on No. 17 to make it closer than it might have been. He still shot 74 to finish at 144 for the tournament.
"Just a loss of concentration," Green said. "I think I missed a couple of short putts I would have been grinding over had it been a little closer You're always one swing from making that seven on this course."
Still, two days at even par on the Blackthorn course was satisfying in itself.
"I think I've played three tournaments here and that's the best I've done," said Green, who shot a 63 a couple of weeks ago to win a USGA Senior Amateur qualifier.
Like Cox, Freels walked away without the trophy but the satisfaction of winning the summer-long points title for the second year in a row. He shot 70 in the final round.
"I just wanted to put a solid round together," said Freels, whose tournament hopes were dashed a day earlier when he made a 10 on a par three. "I had a couple bad swings yesterday I needed to correct. I played pretty solid. I hit a couple of loose shots today, but it was a pretty good round.
"This whole setup with the Tri-Cities Amateur Tour has been a great thing. It seems like we've had a lot more participation. And we're playing real golf."
