Megan Tubbs connects for a hit against the Emery Spartans on Thursday, March 11.
For the Lady Dinos, a change in region does not mean beating Emery isn't a big deal. Carbon opened their season with a home game against the Spartans and make a huge comeback from five runs down in the sixth to beat Emery, 13-12.
The two teams are now in separate regions and so their meeting was a non-region game, but pride and a good start to each of their seasons was at stake. Both scored a run in the first and then two in the third to go into the fourth inning knotted up at three.
The Lady Dinos had Kenzie Cave on the mound and she struggled a little in the middle innings and the Spartans took advantage and added five runs in the next two innings. Carbon held them in the sixth before exploding with eight runs in the bottom half of the frame
Cave, Megan Tubbs, Brianne Vogrinic and Breanna Hurdsman all hit a two-bagger and Smith powered a triple in the win.
"Last season we lost almost every one-run game we were in, its nice to be on the winning side of one for a change," Coach Tony Pinedo said. "I hope this is a good omen for our season."
The team headed to Moab for a four-game tournament on Saturday and it was more success for the squad. They beat 4A Timpanogas, 6-4, for their first game. Cave was winning pitcher.
Smith hit another double in the game. Alexis Oliver and Megan Tubbs also hit a two bagger in the come-from-behind win.
In the second game it was Breanna Hurdsman on the mound. She got the loss as the Dinos fell 4-0 in their first defeat of the season. Brittany Stefanoff was two for three with a double.
Carbon outslugged San Juan, 7-6 to get back to winning ways. Tubbs drove the offense going three for four. All her hits were doubles. Cave got the win on the mound.
The results of games played on March 17 will be published in the Sun Advocate on Tuesday, March 23.

The Internet promised a revolution in information sharing among college professors: more research was supposed to be disseminated inexpensively among university campuses and academic writers.
At first, the promise was met. Publishers started scanning and posting their academic journals online, uploading them into electronic databases where research papers could be read, studied and cited.
As libraries transferred to online resources from print resources, the pricing models changed and in fact our users and our administrators and folks financing operations thought things might be cheaper, said Michelle L. Young, director of libraries at Clarkson University, Potsdam.
However, in recent years, the steady inflation of academic journal subscription prices has begun anew, leading some campus libraries to reduce their subscriptions and a movement of researchers and students to call for the free and open sharing of academic work.
I think they charge more mainly because they can, said Martin A. Walker, a chemistry professor at SUNY Potsdam. If you become indispensable, then you can charge more for your product.
Part of the problem is consolidation in the academic publishing business. Three large publishing houses Elsevier, Springer and Wiley account for more than 40 percent of all academic articles published.
The virtual monopoly allows the companies to dictate how journals are packaged and sold.
Originally, they did offer online journals a la carte. Now it has transitioned into packages, like cable TV, Ms. Young said. You have to pay for channels you might not even like. It is like DirectTV with journals.
The rising cost of academic research has led some to call for changes to what they consider an outdated publication model. To further that conversation, Mr. Walker has organized a panel discussion as part of SUNY Potsdams triennial academic festival. The Future of Publishing discussion will be at 11 a.m. April 12 in Kellas Hall, Room 103, on the SUNY Potsdam campus.
I think were at a very interesting time where we still use essentially a 19th century model of scientific publishing and we havent yet adapted to all the consequences of the Internet revolution, so this panel discussion is really going to explore how things may change, Mr. Walker said.

This the height of arrogance. The people that let these two idiots pass by security should be FIRED immediately.
You get two thumbs up for stating the "talentless" remark :D
Going to have to remove a thumb because it should read "less than talentless" :D
Kanye and Kim could have gone to a municipal airport and boarded a private jet. Everyone, let's blame them and zealous employee. When I travel from my hometown, I go through security like everyone else. My friends and neighbors are the TSA agents, and they STILL check me. We joke and have a good time doing it, but still, I remove my shoes, isolate my laptop, and go through the beltless humiliation of shakedown. Ive worked at an FBO for years now, no TSA. The passengers are at this level of celebrity and their agents are obviously more clever than this couple's employ. Turns out, you do get what you pay for, and if you're gonna skimp on air travel, you have to go through TSA security like everyone else.
But, the two talentless individuals in question did not have to get screened. If you get what you pay for...is the TSA on the "take"???
Par for the course folks.
The following is a true exchange between one of my customers and a TSA officer at CLT last December after my customer's bag comes out of the X-ray machine:
TSA: Is this your bag sir?
Customer: Yes it is.
TSA: Are you carrying ammunition?
Customer: No I am not.
TSA: It shows you have bullets in your bag. We have to inspect the bag. Please step aside.
The TSA officer pulls out a Hohner Harmonica case from my customer's bag and opens it.
TSA: What is this?
Customer: It is a Harmonica.
TSA: What's a Harmonica?
Customer: It is a musical instrument.
TSA: How do I know that?
My customer takes the harmonica and proceeds to play a mean blues piece (My customer can play harmonica like no ones business)
Customer keeps playing.
TSA: Ok Sir, you can stop now.
Customer keeps playing for a total of 4 minutes. When he finishes, the TSA area erupts in applause.
The scary part is that the people responsible for keeping us safe can't tell the difference between a harmonica and a .22 Cal clip. (That's what it looked like on the X-Ray image according to TSA) Happy Friday!
Great stuff. That should have been captured on video whence it could have been put on YouTube. It would have gone viral and circled the globe several times by now.
Damn, now that's hilarious! Gotta love it. Wish I was there! I wonder if anyone video taped it?
My wife took her Bible through screening and they gave her a pat down along with inspecting the book and her bag. They did the wipes on her hands to check for explosives. This is an elementary school teacher who taught for 30 years and was wearing typical clothing for a mid-50's woman. No slogans or symbols on her clothing, no tattoos, piercings, or ear rings. They said the book was too big. After 15 minutes she was allowed to proceed through.
I can't make this up, I don't have enough creativity.
As aggravating as the TSA can be, I really don't see the problem with this one, perhaps other than a little excess of authoritarian bluster ("it shows you have bullets", rather than "I have to take a look at something coming up on the x-ray"). And the cultural illiteracy of someone who doesn't know what a harmonica is.
If a security screener sees something on the x-ray that could look like a clip, they should take a look.
Agents taking people around security should be treated like anyone else breaching security-arrested!
I assume that the 50 minute delay was caused by our talentless TSA giving the talentless couple, not stars, personal treatment. So who has been penalized by the TSA and this talentless couple? The 100 or so passengers delayed 50 minutes have suffered. Some delayed passengers may have missed connections causing them to spend extra time and money at some airport because of TSA and their agents.
You wear the uniform you represent the company !!!!
It's not the TSA that caused this delay!
Please, not ONLY the TSA agent...
What??? TSA did not cause the delay, if they had gone through security like the other passengers, then there would be no issue. The airline employee that gave them special treatment is the one that caused the delay!!!
I thought even airline employees had to go thru security????
This story http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Kanye-West-Kim-Kardashian-JFK-Airport-Screening-Security-Bypass-TSA-Violation-Flight-Delay-Los-Angeles-191089081.html reports:
"When TSA officials learned what happened, they took West and Kardashian off the plane and screened them privately in an area of the jetway, said Farbstein.
The couple was eventually cleared to board but the process delayed the flight by about 50 minutes."
This one http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/clueless_kim_star_treatment_dsCek69VMVVuG1w6NTzKfK adds:
"The TSA may have also violated standard protocol by not rescreening all passengers once the celebrity couple were hauled off the Los Angeles-bound plane, a veteran law-enforcement officer said."
I don't know who else besides the TSA caused this delay.
Why do you people think that the TSA caused the delay??? They had to be screened. Do you bypass the TSA security check at the airport??? The delay was caused by them bypassing security!!!
"The TSA may have also violated standard protocol by not rescreening all passengers once the celebrity couple were hauled off the Los Angeles-bound plane, a veteran law-enforcement officer said."
Apparently they didn't delay the flight enough.
Great post!
Want special Treatment? Pay up and fly private!
Misread article, an airline employee is in hot water, not TSA. As if they need any more bad press. Sorry.
Absolution granted...given that you got the "talentless" part correct. Their kid will be enduring proof there is no lifeguard on the gene pool. It may make medical history though by the first fetus to have morning sickness.
Notice the airline was not named.
I thought it was American. No?
What are you talking about "talentless?"
Can you grow a butt that size? Hmmm?
Now if you said annoying.....
absolutely RIDICOULOUS!!
someone should be looking for a job!
Are u referring to Kayne and his gf? :)
Fire the starstruck idiot airline employees and require the airline to compensate the delayed passengers for their inconvenience. As punishment for breaching security, the fools should be required to watch 48 hours of nonstop Kardashian tasteless TV while Kayne West's music? blares in the background.
FIRE these employees, tell the union to shut the hell up, FIRE them. Does anyone get FIRED for not doing their job these days? FIRE them, what will it take? Just do it.
Probably publicity for a new "reality" show!!!
You have to wonder, don't you?
Without going into who or what the heck this Kayne is, primarily we need to either treat everyone the same in regards to security, or not let them board the plane. No matter who they are, they should not have the right to disrupt operations and bypass anything.
The sooner we apply the rules and laws to everyone, the better off as a country we will be. But as long as we worship people (again, I have no idea what a Kayne is or why she is a celeb), this kind of subversion of the system will bring failure.
Yep I totally agree, one rule for screening person and baggage should apply for all. If employees break the rules and allow passengers to cut corners, then your job is no longer and should be replaced by a employee who will follow the policies set in place by the airport and TSA
Was the domestic they were boarding legitimately 50 minutes delayed or were they waiting for this talentless (perfect!) couple?
Yes, Latimer, talentless is the right word, notwithstanding Billboard. As if Billboard were the final arbiter on talent.
Never said she was. But have it your way: Kayne is talented. And you're clearly sophisticated and cultured.
OK Latimer. First, upper caps are not necessary to convey your message. Hasn't anyone ever taught you web etiquette?
Second, you're free to believe anything you want, including that "artists" like Kayne are talented - nay, he's a veritable paragon of musical genius. I bet you're just like him.
Third, I don't think I'm sheltered and/or small-minded. I find it significant that Kayne appeals to virtually no one over here (Europe), with the possible exception of a limited selection of people in the UK. And while that alone doesn't mean much (certainly not to you of course), it's important to point out that what he represents over here is a certain cross-section of the US that thinks gangsters and all that nonsense are fun. And it is nonsense. Truly. Kayne is marketed - paraded in fact - by the music industry to people, like you obviously, who are susceptible to the appeal of bling and that entire range of self-aggrandizing, chest-thumping, flash-in-the-pan, chip-on-the-shoulder "music".
That's all I meant when I replied "have it your way". I don't really care what people listen to (though I admit it's hard to reign in the comments when I read the word "talent" and Kayne and Kardashian in the same paragraph). But it's not just Kayne – the list is long of people to whom talent is ascribed when they clearly have not much at all. What they often do have, sadly, is a ton of money from people, like you, suckered into a music industry that aims successfully at the lowest common denominator.
I won't comment again. In fact I regret polluting this aviation forum with our exchange.
Finally, peace Latimer.
Thanks TP. Couldn't have said it better myself. It just amazes me, that no talents like these two, rake in millions of dollars. For what? Noise and visual pollution?
Awesome answer! Thanks from a Yank with a sense of decorum.
Taylor Swift wasn't in the article...
If you like knob jobs she has a bunch of talent!
I hope it was worth his/her job!!
Does not seem to mention they lost their job. They will probably get a slap on the wrist and be re assigned
It is absolutely stupefying to see what passes for 'stars' or 'celebrities' these days. It seems that talent, ability, taste and class have nothing to do with achieving this status. It is also outrageous that these two were taken outside of normal security channels. What in God's name were the airline employees thinking?
TSA stands for Totally Stupid A Holes. Talk about a jobs program, these people could never get hired anywhere else and make warehouse security guards look like Mensa geniuses. For proof, observe that fact that they even knew who these "celeb" bozo's were.
We have officially removed any semblance of a thought process from our concept of airport security.
The scandal should be that a flight was delayed for them.
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are a "celebrity couple"? I bet Lisa Lampanelli is jealous.
I echo the calls for the termination of those involved. Security, at the airport is an illusion on its best day, it does not need to be further undermined by reality TV.
I was traveling from Paris to Miami and West was on flight, he was escorted by airport personnel and boarded before anyone else. (No one recognized him). He sat in First Class, not business class and while we were on approach before touching down, a flight attendant got his bag from the overhead and led him to the door !! He was out first, and then at customs, he was escorted by 5 local police officers to the diplomat line!!! Asked the customs officer what mission Kayne was from ...outrageous.
i don't understand why they are flying commercial.
Who ever was involved should be let go, and Kayane and kim should compensate all the passengers that where delayed the 50min.
Why is the Airline delaying the flight for them anyway? Operations must have really enjoyed that one. The flight should have left on time in the first place!
If it was a "regular" person, they would have slammed the door at the time it was scheduled to be closed & that would have been that. I've seen grown women crying like babies to get on board & they say, "Sorry". That should happen every time every person.
While I have much respect for Kanye... two classes of citizens exist, at least, in our ever so egalitarian society.
Line up, serfs, and wait in long lines, then get blasted by radiation from unstudied machines whose very existence violates a longstanding principle of avoiding irradiating people without a medical purpose.
Just adding to the reasons why more and more people and companies are contemplating charter companies and GA. Almost worth the expense of a private chartered aircraft to avoid the TSA and commercial BS.
On a related note, I often wonder what it is like to be famous for being famous...
Oh dear. The humourless don't get those who do -- make it.
Never mind. We probably wouldn't let you into Oz anyway, so no problemo.
I think you mean special needs...
They should be fired unless K & K were searched already. It's entirely possible, media being the...1-side of the story machine it is, that details were left out. Ie were they prescreened privately? I didnt' bother clikcing the APP link....
And Kanye has talent behind the scenes, I believe he produces which is no easy feat.
Total Horse Shit i tell you.
WTF is Billboard? Probably read Blender too. And he didn't even get the FishSticks joke. Boy is he stupid. Bottom line: Person who let the security breach happen should be fired. There should be a moderator to shut up the morons (myself included) who've perpetuated this discussion about how crappy Conyay West is and what a stupid spooge bucket his girl is.
I'm used to usually intelligent discussions about aviation, not a bunch of kids who can't land a Cessna on a flight simulator.
Because it's friday and I was at a loose end.... I would hazard a guess that the flight in question was AAL33
Gossip photos show the dynamic duo at LAX passing a crew member with AA on his hat.
Well then again, how much do you think terrorists would have to pay them to get explosives onto their own plane?
If this is the reason they delayed their flight for 50 minutes I would be extremely annoyed... let them get rebooked... lots of celebs have also been found with handguns in their carryons also - not good to let them pass...
They don't call it "security theatre" for nothing.
Jackoffs! Quit freaking treating Kardahians like royalty! Still living like spoiled children and flashing it off to the rest of the world is nauseating. I think it's time they say good night and good bye! Morons glued to the TV to see who gets into a family quarrel next!
Words cant express my feelings right now for that airline employee. Do not know who is dumber, it employee or the two idiots for asking for special treatment. So, I will just shut up. I hope the employee got fined, big!
Preferential treatment for "stars" is the government norm. I was once flying an airshow staged out of CMA. My little plane has VERY limited fuel capacity. On takeoff I informed the tower of this, they assured me that I would be cleared to land first priority on my return. However, Oprah's Gulfstrem arrived at the airport the same time I did. I was told to hold for up to 15 minutes. I reminded the tower of my fuel situation. They came back "hold, we will get you in when we can". When I landed, the fuel level gauge float was banging on the bottom of the tank. I guess an airshow pilot's life is less important than a star's convenience. I could have declared an emergency, I suppose, but it ended OK. I admit I have never thought much of Oprah in any event.
I remember Michael Jacksons brother and family being treated the same way at Heathrow a number of years back, the rest of us in a ery long queue and they were whisked through smiling back at the rest of us...
I will never understand why people go gaga over a "celebrity". As far as I am concerned, their fans pay their wages and they work for YOU! They should be kissing our asses!
Should have strip searched both of them!
Celebs are not how shall we say exempt in bypassing getting screened for drugs or weapons and should never be just for who they are. Considering TSA catches approx. 30 weapons a week not to mention all the other restrictions of liquids ect.
Was it JFK that had the major security breech last year or was it another major U.S airport with a million dollar security system?
[This poster has been suspended.]
i think they should be let through. they're rich, pay less than 6% in taxes. what are the chances that they're terrorists? they're not muslim.
These two terrorize the airwaves not the airlines, unless you get stuck sitting next to them.
Phil, you've been smoking that stuff again???
2 more thumbs up for the "talentless" remark!
This would be funny, if it weren't so serious.
Agree with the "less than talentless" comment.
I noticed that the flight they were going to board was held fir 50 minutes. Oh, yeah, that happens for me all the time. Special treatment there as well I would say.
who is kayne and kim.is that the olson sisters????
Kanye is not talentless...that is a fact.
A beatbox that samples beats from real artists from the 70's,80's and 90's is talent??? The only talent that he and the likes of him have is making money out of people that buy their merchandise. Same goes for the Kardashians...
Get thos two airline employees who are "brainless like celebs" and throw their asses the hell out of the U.S.A.
American Patriot
MEDIA stars is the appropriate label. Media creates them, they have no talent, no intellect, no appeal, no skills and certainly, in my view, are not attractive. To my knowledge they contribute nothing and have only engaged in selfish acts. THEY should have been sent to the back of the line.
James in Asheville NC
The TSA agents that were involved should be terminated because of their lack of judgement in protecrting the rest of the public. By being celebrities does not mean that you shoould get special treatment when it comes to high risk situations such as protecting the public of any physcial harm and those agents involved should have known better, and the proof is right there in the way conducted themselves in violating protocols and policies. Just think anybody could be brought if the price is right.
Kanye West is a terrible rapper, but a has an ear of genius when it comes to mixing and remastering music. Sounds like a lot of jealousy here... If it takes no talent lets see any of you "haters" make millions doing what he has. If there is one thing that shows the true closed minded-ness of flightaware users, it's a successful minority- but you'd be the first one to say "get a job" if he was unemployed. What the employee did was wrong, but what does that have to do with your feelings about West's craft? I bet if it were Taylor Swift, everyone would be defending the employee. Disgusting.
He and Ms K got equal treatment from the Flightaware posters.
I don't think it's fair to pigeonhole "flightaware users" as being "closed minded", and I detect an accusation of racism in your remarks as well. The FlightAware demographic skews a little older and a lot of older people don't like rap, but multiple posters defended Kanye as an artist... Mike Dadlani, Latimer Taylor, me, and even you, sort of.
I don't speak for the rest of them, I'm an equal opportunity basher, Kanye's and Taylor Swifts music both sucks!!!
Oh for the love of god, we have web etiquette police here now !!!
Geez do we not have something greater to worry about, what's next spell checkers?

[This comment has been downvoted. Show anyway.]
Check out total musical sales overall compared to others with real talent over the years. The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Queen, etc. The Beatles' music is still being played over 50 years after first being released. "Yesterday" has been covered by over 1000 different acts. The Stones' music still gets played. Bohemian Rhapsody, 37 years old, still frequently tops "favourite song" polls. Mail me back in 10 years time, not 50, and tell me how good Kanye West is then. He'll probably be asking "Do you want that large?"
Glad someone finally spelled his name correctly.
Gotta agree with Martin, and I have about as much respect for how someone spells Corney East's name as I do for his music. And if rap means you gotta date a butt like that, I'll stick with a rhapsody. If you could buy em for what they are worth, and sell em for what they think they are worth, you'd be on a GV, not AA.com. As for the topic, I usually sit in the front, AKA rock star jet pilot (sarcasm) otherwise I stand in line and bare all like the rest of the mere mortals. So tell me why these two should be any different? It ain't the talent!
The Beatles' music was hardly recognized as timeless at the beginning; many reviews were extremely negative.
For instance, Newsweek in 1964: "Musically they are a near disaster: guitars and drums slamming out a merciless beat that does away with secondary rhythms, harmony and melody. Their lryics ... are a catastrophe... preposterous..."
Many social critics also blamed them for practically every ill they perceived in then-contemporary society. Hmm... sound familiar?
You don't hear the Beatles much on the radio anymore. As Dave Barry said, Classic Rock should be called Music for Old People. Fact is, the people who are buying music today, mostly young people, are not listening to the Beatles, thinking about them, or talking about them.
Popular music is made for people to listen to in the time when it is made, and if people like it and there's an audience for it, then good for them. It's called freedom, and self-expression. If it's popular for more than a few years, that's uncommon and maybe that means it's extra-special, but that's not the point or the purpose.
Who listens to Mozart? I know I'm supposed to think it's great, but honestly it doesn't do a thing for me and it never has.
Word. Exactly.
I do love Mozart for what it is, and I usually turn off Kanye, but I'll raise the dial when I hear some Doors. I'm thankful for the evolutions of music. I'm 32.
Might not have been recognised as timeless at the beginning, but the producer who rejected them in the first instance must have kicked himself several times in the following years.
Music becomes timeless, er, over time. Whoever wrote that article in Newsweek in 1964 no doubt ate their words several times too. McCartney still sells out venues all over the world 50 years later. Check out his website tour archives. Despite living a mere 15 miles from Liverpool, I have yet to see him perform (unless you count me being in the audience at Live Aid at Wembley in 1985), but I'd pay good money to do so.
Beatles music is played daily in the UK. OK, there may be a very local bias from my viewpoint, given my distance from Liverpool, but nationwide stations play the music too.
My 17yo son is in a band (age ranges 17-21). One of the band has cited The Beatles as one of his influences. They've played "Hey Jude" in the past. I regularly go to his gigs where there are other acts of similar ages. Only last week, one of the support acts played "Twist & Shout". OK, it's not a Lennon/McCartney composition, but everybody associates the song with The Beatles (or Ferris Bueller's Day Off, but that's The Beatles playing the song).
Forget your "manufactured" bands (I'm thinking of "X-Factor" & "<country>'s Got Talent" shows). Think of bands like my son's. Bands that write their own stuff and play their own instruments. What's the typical line up? Drummer, bassist, lead guitar, rhythm guitar. Who started that trend? Bands may not realise it, but they're all heavily influenced by The Beatles.
Obviously, you don't appreciate real music. Much of the junk currently classified as music is just a bunch of noise. Too bad we can't come back in 200 years and see if today's noise is still with us. I'll bet Mozart is!
Once again, Latimer - all caps is just rude. It's harder to read, and is considered very poor manners by Web users in general - but obviously, you are one of those wonderful people who don't care how much you might annoy or irritate others. All right, fine. That's your choice. Be as irritating and annoying as you please: just don't start whining about how nobody likes and/or "respects" you.
Now, if you will - look on the left side of your keyboard. There is a key there marked "Caps Lock." If you depress that key once, then you will find you are no longer typing all capital letters. Amazing, isn't it? Also, if you do decide you want to capitalize a letter for, say, a proper noun or the beginning of a sentence, you can depress one of the two keys marked "Shift" when you press the letter key, and it will be shown as capitalized! Technology is a wonderful thing, isn't it?
Note that I have not once mentioned your taste in music or any other form of show business. By the same token, I do not comment on any physical deformities or mental handicaps someone might have.

While it may not have been the prettiest offensive performance, the end result for the Carbon High Lady Dinos basketball team was the same as it was in their previous six games: a win. Despite struggling at points the Lady Dinos continued to do the little things necessary to win including playing pressure defense and diving for loose balls that helped ensure a 42-21 victory against Payson on Thursday night at the Carbon High Gymnasium.
The win extended Carbon's win streak to seven games, their longest winning streak of the season.
In their second meeting of the year, the Lady Dinos held Payson to just 21 points after allowing 19 points in a 59-19 Lady Dino win back on Jan. 10.
The Lady Dinos used their pressure defense to help gather 14 steals on the night, as seniors Miranda Averett, Regan Powell and Rachel Scoggins finished with four steals.
While the Lady Dinos faultered on offense, they made up for it by holding Payson to only 10 points in the first half.
Averett led the Lady Dinos in scoring with 12 points. Kelcy Otani added eight points and Amanda Freestone had seven points and seven rebounds.
With the win, Carbon (13-3, 6-0 Region 12) maintains their one game lead over second place Delta at 5-1 in Region 12 play. Payson (1-14, 0-6 Region 12) currently sits in last place in the region.
The Lady Dinos will try to extend their winning streak to eight games as they travel north to take on Spanish Fork tonight at 5:15 p.m.

A brush fire on Wood Hill was apparently deliberately ignited early Tuesday morning.
The blaze burned a few junipers or pinyon pine and was put down quickly by Price and U.S. Forest Service fire fighers.
A Price man who was walking his dog shortly after dawn discovered the fire. "I saw the smoke plume first, and when I walked over to check it out, I saw the fire," said the man, who asked not to be identified.
As he approached the fire, he heard a man's voice shout, "What are you doing here?"
The witness jogged away from the scene, then called dispatch to report the fire.
Price Fire Chief Paul Bedont said the flames were easy to put out, given the damp conditions. No structures were threatened.
The land in this area of the hill is apparently owned by the State of Utah, according to the county GIS ownership map.
This was the second fire on the hill in a month. The first one in mid-April was also reported by a person walking a dog on a trail.

Well you really need to enable DevFS in the kernel and have it mount automagically on boot. I think its under the FileSystems-->Misc File Systems-->DevFS
Im using two debians i have 6 oses on my system so, anyhow my mouse isnt working in two distributions the issue is practically the same im unsure as what would cause them and i had them both before and what i did to fix it wont work this time so im stumped
PS/2 Mouse
Mother Board MSI Neo K8N NEo Platinum
First one Debian 64
using sarge with debian 64, X wont start just will not start, (EE)general pointer cannot be found. Anyhow i just installed it and this seems to be an issue. Ive tried different mice to no avail. When i run modprobe mousedev, or anything mouse related, gnome will start but no mouse movement, or the mouse is locked. I had this two times before and what i did to fix this was simply boot up a different kernel 2.6.10-9-amd64-generic and it worked, i had to wipe the hard drive, so i started over. Anticipating the issue i installed all the kernels available and none work. MY mouse is a cheap yahoo optical one from a local department store, it is running off an 6' belkin extender
Debian 32 Sid/Sarge
Problem started after i first installed gentoo, and i booted it, and it said devfs not compiled into kernel, anyhow after booting up gentoo for the first point, it boots fine no errors of no mouse, it comes up to gdm, mouse cursor is there, but wont move, again same mouse. To solve the problem before i just switched the x version to sarge, which i did and nothing im sick of using windows to graphically browse the web, i cant stand browsing forums with links2 so any help is appreciated, (there was no need to run modprobe because it saw the mouse just wont move)
thanks in advance
Well you really need to enable DevFS in the kernel and have it mount automagically on boot. I think its under the FileSystems-->Misc File Systems-->DevFS
all right thanks for the tip on devfs, but my primary concern was with the mouse,
devfs is deprecated, if your using a 2.6 kernel you can setup udev (which is probably what gentoo is using...)
on the mouse issue, what type of mouse do you have?
i dont want to sound like a rude ahole but i wiped gentoo, and gentoo was never my concern its this mouse, just stating the problem only appeared after i tried to boot gentoo
the mouse is a cheapy
i picked it up from the lcoal department store for 5 bucks, all it says on it is yahoo! it has a scroll and two buttons and thats it theres no model number just yahoo optical mouse with ps/2 hook up
What boot manager are you using?
The reason I ask is that some folks install 3 or 4 distros on their PC's and just let the last distro handle the booting. This has the negative effect of using the last distro kernel to boot all of them in most cases unless you have manually copied the kernel from each different distro over to the last one.
I personally use gag http://gag.sourceforge.net and make all the distros write their boot loaders to the superblock of the root partition rather than the MBR.
Tigger is probably on the right track. Whatever gentoo did screwed something up.
Are you at a point on this box where you could reinstall?? I know it sounds like a windows fix, but I've found its always best to start with a clean slate.
On that note, what does the xorg.conf or the xf86config file look like for the mouse section??
i think you guys our on the right track, because i tried to boot windows last night for gaming and it couldnt find system file, so im doing a complete reinstall of everything
but the last thing i had installed was debian-amd64 after i had wiped gentoo but my grub had the kernels like this
image=/dev/hda5/boot/kernel-2.6.10 for gentoo or something like that
debian 32 was like
essentialy i reconfigured grub myself ill post later, once i get everything reinstalled, and configured and see if that fixes it
side note, i tried ubuntu hoary last night, and that worked with the mouse, but after that windows wouldnt boot
note just commenting, i only want//need help with the mouse

Deck the halls, this holiday season, with scenes of hunger.
Struggling families all across America now have less food on their tables. Budget cuts that kicked into effect Nov. 1 have lowered the nation's average food stamp benefit to less than $1.40 per person per meal.
Austerity American-style is squeezing elsewhere as well, from Head Start for kids to Meals on Wheels for seniors, and more cuts are looming, as lawmakers on Capitol Hill near still another budget deliberation deadline, this one midway through December.
The next federal program in the crosshairs? Maybe the biggest of them all: Social Security.
Average Americans, of course, don't want Social Security cut. If anything, average Americans stand more committed than ever to keeping Social Security whole - and for good reason. Social Security currently stands as America's only retirement bedrock.
Not too long ago, pensions also routinely delivered retirement security. But our corporations have cut back on traditional pensions. In 1980, 89 percent of Fortune 100 companies guaranteed workers a "defined benefit" at retirement. The rate last year: only 12 percent.
Companies have replaced traditional pensions with 401(k)s, and many firms don't even match employee 401(k) contributions. The predictable result? The nation's "retirement deficit" - the difference between what Americans have saved up for retirement and what they need to maintain their standard of living once retired - now totals $6.6 trillion, says Boston College's Center for Retirement Research.
So, amid all this retirement insecurity, who actually thinks that cutting Social Security would be a good idea? The big push for cutting Social Security is coming from America's "corporate statesmen."
These corporate leaders - the nearly 200 CEOs who run the influential Business Roundtable and the over 135 chief execs who bankroll the lobby group known as "Fix the Debt" - seldom ever mention "Social Security benefits" and "cuts" in the same sentence. They speak instead in euphemisms. The nation, they intone, cannot afford the current level of "entitlement" spending.
In the name of "saving" Social Security for future generations, these CEOs are urging Congress to enact "reforms" that range from lowering the annual Social Security inflation adjustment to raising the Social Security retirement age to 70.
These two changes, point out Sarah Anderson of the Institute for Policy Studies and Scott Klinger of the Center for Effective Government, would slice the average Social Security beneficiary's lifetime benefits by about 20 percent.
America's CEOs, Anderson and Klinger note in a new report, don't need Social Security. They already have ample retirement security without it.
In fact, these CEOs are sitting on the biggest retirement bonanza in modern human history. The retirement accounts of Business Roundtable CEOs currently average $14.6 million, enough to pay out a $86,043 monthly benefit once they retire.
The typical American worker within 10 years of retirement, by contrast, now has only enough in saved-up personal retirement assets to generate a monthly retirement payout of just $71.
Why are so many CEOs driving so hard to cut Social Security? One reason: The corporations these CEOs run don't pay much in the way of corporate taxes today. They want to pay even less - and the less the federal government spends on Social Security and other "entitlements" like Medicare, the less pressure on lawmakers to seriously tax corporate income.
CEOs also have a personal reason to want to see Social Security cut. Americans this year pay Social Security tax on only the first $113,700 of paycheck income. This tax ceiling rises each year with inflation.
But if we eliminated the ceiling entirely - and taxed the paychecks of CEOs and other high-income taxpayers at the same rate as the paychecks of average workers - 95 percent of the expected Social Security budget shortfall over the next 75 years would disappear.
America's CEOs don't particularly care for this sensible approach to fixing Social Security's fiscal future. They'd much rather just ruin Social Security for the rest of us.

(Shoulder Positioning & Integration of Kinematic Experimentation)Overview
The human shoulder is not well understood at this time, due to the complexity of the shoulder, with regard to the specific interactions of the humerus, clavicle, and scapula. In particular, it has been difficult to obtain reliable data on the movement of the scapula. Experiments haven't been able to accurately track the moment arms of broad muscles through the entire range of the muscle. Shoulder injuries are very common and recurring, and a better understanding of the motion of the human shoulder, specifically with regard to overhand motions, could lead to fewer injuries or better surgical techniques.
The purpose of this project is the design and development of a fixture capable of moving the 3 bones of a cadaveric shoulder in a physiologic way. The shoulder can then be moved with realistic muscle loading applied and the resulting muscle/tendon strain can be measured. This fixture and the resulting experiments will allow further understanding of normal shoulder function and also allow the investigation of the causes and solutions to chronic shoulder instability.

Africa Programs > Community Centered Conservation
Since the early 1990s, the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI) has recognized that protecting the environment and species can no longer remain separate from the task of improving the human condition. Rapidly increasing destruction of forests and the pressures of growing populations mean that reaching individual farmers and villagers is key to conservation success. That's why, in African chimpanzee range countries, JGI works to build the capacity of rural communities to be self-sustaining in ways that enable them to prosper economically and culturally, while protecting the natural resources on which their long-term prosperity depends.
JGI's work is distinguished by its participatory, systems-based approach, successfully mobilizing people to adopt new behaviors and practices to serve themselves and the broader landscape they rely on to survive. We apply this approach across multiple sectors, from agriculture and health to education and micro-credit.

MASSENA C&M Sales officials said Friday that the store will move this winter into a larger area at the St. Lawrence Centre mall.
Were still here, said G. Charles Chuck Adams, who runs the store with his wife, Mary L.
The store is adjacent to Sears after previously being housed at the former Hacketts store location near J.C. Penney Co. The C&M Sales move is being made to accommodate the new Shoe Dept. Encore store opening in that space later this winter.
Once Shoe Dept. Encores move is complete, Mr. Adams said, C&M will move into the former Shoe Dept. location. Its going to be bigger than this one, he said, adding the space will more than double from the 3,300 square feet it has now.
Were hoping its going to be a super store, he said, adding the new store will have more space for furniture and allow them to expand offerings.
Were going to be doing some pretty cool stuff when we get into that other store, Mr. Adams said, adding that among the new offerings will be Phenomenal Fudge, once again giving mall shoppers a place to purchase fudge.
Its good stuff, he said. Its made in Vermont with real cream and butter.
Mr. Adams said hes expecting the store, which sells antiques, Amish furniture, guitars, collectibles, signs and more, to open in its new location sometime about March 1.
We buy, we sell, we trade, and none of that is going to change, he said, adding that custom orders are available.

Hey, everybody.
This forum has been running since July 2005, a few months after Bobby Henderson first wrote the open letter to the Kansas School Board and the Pastafarian movement subsequently gained popularity and momentum. Since that time, we've been proud to have an active community here that has spent the past months creating its own philosophy, meaning, and even scripture surrounding the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Our philosophy has evolved into one of tolerance. See the FAQ for more details. Our goal here has always been, and will always continue to be, to prevent the teaching of religion masked as "intelligent design" in schools. Our goal has not been, and we will try our best to ever keep it from being, to somehow mock religion.
None of us have had any advanced look at what the book is like. We've had a few rumors, a few murmurs, more than most people, perhaps, but the only people who know, as of this posting, what's in the book, are Bobby Henderson and his publishers at Villard Press. The rest of us are clueless.
So, no matter what the book brings - be it a reinforcement of our values here on the forums, or be it a complete contradiction of them - know that we did not write it, and as of this point, probably know about as much about the book as you do.
The book is one thing, but whatever it is, the values of the world's largest Pastafarian community can be found right here on this forum.
Keep that in mind as you comment on the book, please.

Are you basing that theory on the idea that you will get a productive player for a fair price? If you are then you will be VERY disappointed with the results of signing a "premium" "free" agent.
Where did I say "fair price"? I think we have a lot more money to spend with Gregg off the payroll and the 25 million that each team is supposed to be receiving.
There are only really 2 premium free agents this year and that's Hamilton and Greinke.
