The 2013 Toyota RAV4 Limited is a fine choice and a good value, but its infotainment and its convenience technology are not the best in this crowded class.
The fact that the 2012 Toyota RAV4 EV is an electric SUV is less compelling than its range, where it comes in a little stronger than most electric cars.
Please visit Toyota for additional models.
The fourth-generation Toyota RAV4 gains a new power train option with the announcement of the 2016 RAV4 hybrid at the New York International Auto Show.
The 2013 RAV4 is a complete refresh with a dramatically changed look at that moves it upscale.
The 2013 Toyota RAV4 continues the automaker's trend of thoughtful design and good performance, but we weren't fans of its dashboard tech powered by Entune.
Yes it's electric and yes it has a Tesla power train, but the limited range of the 2012 Toyota RAV4 EV plus the slow charge times make this car a confusing mess.
Toyota puts Tesla's electric drive technology in its RAV4, making for one of the longer-range electric cars on the market.
At the Los Angeles Auto Show 2012, Toyota looks to gain the edge on the compact crossover SUV with the newly redesigned 2013 Toyota RAV4.
Toyota completely redesigns its RAV4 small SUV for the 2013 model year, bringing its style and tech up to par with the rest of the lineup.
Among the handful of electric cars hitting the market, the Toyota RAV4 EV scores a point for being the only SUV.

Another problem with his posts is that all follow the same format: "I personally don't like this insignificant part of the game so I want it removed just because", "omg everyone is against me", "...", "made up fact (that is completely irrational)", "...", "standard this and standard that", "..." and repeats again, and again, and again, and again creating new threads and posts like repetition would make something real or happen.
Just read his posts. It's immensely annoying, imagine finding someone like in that in-game. Truly is a new cooloutac. http://www.quakelive.com/forum/searc...hid=283770&pp=

Friday, October 03, 2008With a different location and a different year, the outcome still remained the same.
The Lipscomb Men's Soccer team tied with the Belmont Bruins in the Battle of the Boulevard for the second year in a row.
In front of a large crowd of students and fans at Drakes Creek Park in Hendersonville, Belmont jumped ahead in the 50th minute with an unassisted goal by Dan Meacock. They would not keep the lead for long as Bison freshman Garrett Pettis headed a free kick from Andre Santos into the back of the net in the 54th minute.
The next 56 minutes would continue to provide a great deal of action, but no more scoring for either side. After two rounds of overtime and many astonishing saves by each goal keeper, the teams had to settle for a 1-1 tie.
"They have a great keeper," forward Miguel DaSilva said. "I felt we outplayed them and out shot them, but he (Wesley Wray) kept Belmont in the game."
Wray had a career-high 10 saves in the game. Lipscomb keeper freshman Patrick Walsh had 5 saves for the Bisons.
The Bisons outshot the Bruins 16-11 and forced an offsides call on Belmont 10 different times in the game, compared to zero for Lipscomb. Each side had eight corner kicks, but failed to finish on many offensive chances throughout the game.
The final Battle of the Boulevard of the season may have to take place even further away, like the conference tournament.
Lipscomb is now 4-5-1 (0-0-1 A-Sun) and Belmont goes to 5-4-1 (0-0-1 A-Sun).
"We hate to tie," DaSilva said. "We felt like we should have won. Tonight was a big game, but we are confident against Evansville. We know what we need to do."
The Bisons play away at Evansville on Sunday October 5 at 1 p.m.
Written by Katie Haab, student assistant in the Lipscomb athletic media relations department.

In the holiday vein of giving thanks and sharing warm greetings, USO Naples held a Sailor of the Quarter Recognition event on Nov. 30. Fleet Master Chief JoAnn Ortloff presided over the proceedings as sailors were recognized by the USO and their leadership for their excellence and dedication.
"We are here to support the sailors and this event does just that," USO Naples and Rome Area Director Sabrina Pullido wrote via email, describing how the event dovetails with the USO's mission of lifting the spirits of troops and their families. "It's great to see everyone take the time out of their busy day and come out and celebrate the accomplishments of these fine service members."
According to Pullido, the quarterly event, which was held at the USO Naples at the NSA Naples Capodichino Air Terminal, was conceived four years ago during a brainstorming session with Vice Admiral Charles J. Leidig. Leidig, now the Deputy Commander for Military Operations United States Africa Command, wanted an opportunity to personally congratulate exemplary sailors that the USO had selected for recognition and the event has become a cherished tradition.
"[The ceremony] is one my favorite events," Pullido wrote. "In the military, everyone is always going out of their way and making sacrifices as if it is the most normal thing in the world. It's great to be able to see our sailors shine under the limelight for once!
"The sense of community and support is always strong in all military communities, but the holidays make it even more special."
Fleet Master Chief Ortloff praised USO Naples and the larger organization for being steadfast in its support of servicemen and women.
"Personally, it's an honor to have been a part of USO's generous support to our Sailors of the Quarter recognition reception," Fleet Master Chief Ortloff wrote in an email. "While personal awards are always an honor, recognition from volunteers at the USO means so much more. The time that the USO set aside for this reception said volumes about the support and genuine care they have for the military.
"Although I was not a Sailor of the Quarter recipient, I sure felt like a winner that day. The USO has a way of doing that, making us all feel important, whatever our rank or service branch. The USO not only recognizes the personal accomplishments of our men and women in the military, it offers a 'down home comfort' and is a constant for each of us, wherever we are in the world. That is shown in a big way here at our Naples USO sites."
Along with being named a Sailor of the Quarter, sailors are given a free "wine and dine tour," homemade gifts from USO staff and volunteers and a special challenge coin from the USAA and the Fleet Master Chief.
For one of the honorees, IT1 Abel Aguirre, the award came as a surprise.
"I had received a phone call from my chief and he told me that I needed to go to the USO office for the event," IT1 Aguirre wrote via email. "It was a really good feeling to know that the USO took the time to organize an event to recognize the hard work of the sailors. It's always nice to know that someone is thinking of you."
IT1 Aguirre also mentioned how USO Naples offers excursions that help deployed troops and military families enjoy the foreign lands they reside in and ingratiate them with the local population.
"The USO is such an incredible resource for my family. The day trips and extended trips are the best. I love the trips because everything is organized [by USO Naples] from the transportation to the lodging, the food and the guided tours. I never have to worry about our itinerary."

THE MORNING SKATE — A Return to Some Normalcy (and Visnovsky update)
Kevin Schultz
Well, we're back to some sense of normal. I guess normal in the sense that we can get back to talking about what's happening on the ice rather than in a
asylum meeting room in midtown. It feels weird, it's been too long, but it feels good.
The owners and players have still yet to vote on the CBA, which means everything is not finalized yet. At this point, it seems like those votes should, hopefully, be a formality. The majority will likely vote based on the recommendations of their leaders and barring anything crazy, we should be good to go and have hockey soon.
According to Pierre Lebrun, a January 19th start date looks probable and that would make for a 48-game season.
Recommended reading about the new CBA from the best hockey writing minds is as follows: Botta, Mirtle and LeBrun.
(Frighteningly, Mirtle points out that if the NHL keeps up its pace of growth, the cap floor could skyrocket within five years time.)
Also worth reading if you need a refresher, check out Lighthouse's rundown of what happened this off-season. In summation; the Isles signed Brad Boyes (winger), Matt Carkner (big defender), and Eric Boulton (puncher) while PA Parenteau bolted to Colorado and Matt Martin was re-signed for four years. Lubomir Visnovsky was acquired via trade and defender Griffin Reinhart was drafted fourth overall. Consider yourself now ready for hockey!
On the subject of Visnovsky, he had an interesting quote that is surprisingly readable via Google translate at sport.sme.sk, which is notably not a team-run website:
"I got an offer to stay until the end of the season in Slovan. Consider buying it and do not know how I should answer it. Yet I have to deal with my agent and overseas employers. Very strongly about it I think. While I see if it's possible. Do not want to do Islanders anything behind your back. discuss and we'll see how it goes, "said Lubomir Visnovsky.
That quote sounds like a guy who wants to stay where he is but understands he has obligations. Slovan is his hometown team and surely there are strong emotions there, but in this quote he's literally saying he doesn't want to do anything behind the Islanders' back.
What this whole situations seems like is a team making it widely known that they're going to do what they can to keep their player, including writing articles about it. All that in an effort to say to the fans, 'hey we're really trying to keep him, seriously! We're even making offers!'
The reality is that keeping Visnovsky isn't an easy thing for them to do given the situation.

D Wade's New Baby Mama Brags About Sleeping With Him While He Was Married
by Robert Littal | Posted on Monday, January 6th, 2014
Wade doesn't allow the Heat to talk about his baby mama drama, maybe he should get ahold of his actual baby mama and tell him to chill on the social media talk.
Because she (or someone pretending to be her) has been quite chatty lately and even though she deletes the tweets everyone can see.
9 years ago, Wade was allegedly happily married.

It's the time of year we've all been waiting for.
Decorations and holiday gifts have been displayed in stores for months, prompting annoyed, yet secretly excited groans of "Christmas already?"
Now that the turkey has been cut and the leftovers have been gobbled up, it's finally time to break out the lights and stockings.
Of course, the most crucial Christmas decoration is the tree.
"Ever since I was a kid, I remember getting a real tree from a local tree farm near my house. We usually get our tree two weeks before Christmas and decorate it as a family," said Gayle Rosenberger, 21, of White Hall, Md.
Many factors come into play when choosing the perfect family tree. Is it the right size? Does it have a nice shape? How does it smell? Can it support the weight of dozens of ornaments?
For some families, the only way to go is to get a real pine or fir for the living room.
"I feel the fake ones take away from the magic of Christmas," said Rosenberger. "In every Christmas movie, you see people chopping down a tree, not putting up a fake one."
Jim Bowers, nursery manager at Stauffers of Kissel Hill in Dover, said that, real or fake, the look of the tree is key to the Christmas celebration.
But, he warns, you get what you pay for. "Cheap fake trees look, well . . . fake."
He said while artificial trees can start at around $20, well-made ones can run up to $400.
Karen Umland of York prefers a fake tree because she can reuse it every year. She finally bought a new tree this year after using her last one for a decade.
Umland said she prefers the convenience of an artificial tree, but also gets a second, live tree for her home each year.
Ashley Fleshman from New Salem, likes real trees but has some environmental concerns about them. "I hate the idea of cutting down a tree just for a month of decoration. I think I'm going to start getting the replantable ones.
According to tree experts, Fleshman may have the right idea. Gerrit Strathmeyer, co-owner of Strathmeyer Christmas Tree Farm, said while it might seem more cost-effective to get an artificial tree, it might not be as eco-friendly.
"Many years ago, people wanted real trees because it was a family tradition. Now it's become more of an environmental thing. Today's society is more environmentally aware," he said.
Strathmeyer said fake trees are made of plastic, dyes and petroleum, which just end up in landfills and leak into the water system when people throw them out.
Real trees can be recycled.
"When Christmas is over, my grandmother takes her tree outside and turns it into a nesting place for birds. In the spring she cuts it up and uses it for mulch," Strathmeyer says.
But cost and environmental impact have nothing on Christmas tradition.
"It's a family thing," Bowers said. "People like being able to come down and pick a tree as a family. It adds to the experience, which people really enjoy."
Where to find a real tree
IF THE QUEST for the perfect Christmas tree reaches Griswoldian proportions in your household, then it's never too early to start looking, according to area farmers.
On the hunt for a real Christmas tree? Find a list of cut-your-own and pre-cut tree locations in York and Adams counties at smartmagpa.com.
What you said
WE ASKED the York Daily Record/Sunday News online Facebook community: What does your family prefer, a real Christmas tree or an artificial one?
Here's what they had to say:
Janelle Keller-Buster: Artificial. Much less mess!
Keith Shocker: Artificial. My dog eats the live kind.
Mindi Weikert-Kauffman: I prefer real, but the HUMBUGS I love prefer the "boxed tree" :)
Ashley Yingling Fleshman: Not to be a hippie, but I hate the idea of cutting down a tree just for a month of decoration. I think I'm going to start getting the replantable ones.
Gini Slaseman Riese: Artificial - once we had a praying mantis nest hatch that was in a real tree!
Kayla Nace: Real for sure! I cannot stand fake ones!
Anne Fonda: Artificial, after years of live trees. Less mess, better use of my money each year, and my husband's bad back. Not to mention allergies.
Maria Ellis: We have to use artificial - my daughter and my brother are both allergic.
Dawn Williams Polchlopek: Artificial, my dog (urinated) on my real one a few years ago . . . never again!

SCITUATE — Hinting broadly that he may soon return to public life, perhaps as a political candidate, State Police Col. Brendan Doherty announced Thursday that he is retiring effective April 1.
Both Doherty and Gov. Lincoln Chafee's office denied that friction between Doherty and Chafee — who were at odds over the Providence Police Department's decision to opt out of the federal Secure Communities Program — led to Doherty's seemingly abrupt decision to step down.
"I have no information about any tension between the governor and Colonel Doherty," Chafee spokesman Michael Trainor said after Doherty's announcement at a press conference at the new State Police headquarters building. Trainor said Chafee was "surprised at the timing" of the announcement but had thought Doherty might be considering other options. He said Chafee "wished Colonel Doherty well."
With his wife and daughter in the room, as well as several State Police detectives, Doherty told reporters who were prodding him to discuss his disagreements with Chafee that "I have a lot of respect for the governor," noted that the governor reappointed him as head of the State Police, and said "I feel I had the requisite support" from Chafee.
He described the noontime meeting at which he submitted his resignation to Chafee as "cordial and professional."
Doherty, 52, said he had considered retiring at the end of last year, but decided to stay on for at least a few months to lead the department into the new administration.
He paused at the podium briefly and appeared to choke up when he said, "I'm very happy. It was time for me to move on. I put my heart and soul into this job.
This is actually the second time Doherty has retired from the State Police. He was the lieutenant colonel when he retired in 2004, but then-Gov. Donald Carcieri brought him back as the superintendent in 2007. All told, he has been with the State Police for 28 years, the last four as colonel.
Trainor said Chafee "has someone in mind" to succeed Doherty and could announce that choice as soon as today.
"In the future, I may plan to join back into the public forum once again," Doherty said at the end of his announcement, "that being said, I will have just as strong a voice, hopefully, as I do here today."
Doherty, a Cumberland resident, is widely thought to be a possible challenger to either U.S. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse or Rep. David Cicilline in 2012, but he steadfastly refused to entertain those rumors Thursday. He said only that he will "weigh my options in the coming weeks" and make a decision about his future in public life soon, perhaps at the end of May. He promised to make an announcement "at the appropriate time."
Asked about his political affiliation — whether he is a Republican or Democrat — Doherty said it would not be appropriate to answer political questions at State Police headquarters during his retirement announcement.
Doherty did not wear his State Police uniform to the press conference, but instead wore a dark blue suit with a white shirt and bright red tie — often the uniform of a politician.
He stressed that one of the issues most important to him, one he discussed with Chafee Thursday, is who his successor would be. "It is important for me to know when I move on that this department is in good hands," he said. Doherty said he and the governor "had a good conversation about a couple of people" and that "I'm confident we will have the right person as my successor."
If a new colonel is not in place by April 1, Doherty said, the current second in command, Lt. Col. Raymond White, will take charge on a temporary basis.
Doherty said in response to a question that he has "no regrets," looking back on his law enforcement career. After earlier mentioning such successes as presiding over the largest cocaine and U.S. currency seizure in Rhode Island history, as well as the largest child pornography case and racking up the largest number of driving under the influence arrests in a two-year span, he was asked what is his proudest achievement, he made reference to numerous organized crime and public corruption cases then said, "I once returned a stolen dog to a little kid and brought put a smile to her face, that was rewarding to me."
He said he was proud of the fact that there were no union grievances filed during his time as superintendent.
Doherty didn't back down from statements he made about the Secure Communities program, which calls for police departments to forward the fingerprints of people they arrest to the federal Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to determine whether they are in the country legally. He criticized the stand taken by his predecessor as superintendent, now
Providence Public Safety Commissioner Steven Pare, who said Providence would opt out of the program, as "dangerous and irresponsible."
"I made some public comments about that and I stand by my comments," Doherty said. "Leaders stand up in controversy and that's what I did. I will continue to on any issues that I think we need some leadership to step up, I will do that."
He said his stand is "a law enforcement position, it's a common sense position" because the program deals with "in custody arrests."
Asked if the governor was unhappy with his comments, Doherty drew laughter when he deadpanned, "probably."
As to whether he was dressed down by the governor, Doherty replied, "I say this with all humility, I won't allow somebody to dress me down. It didn't happen."
Attorney General Peter Kilmartin, a retired Pawtucket police officer, issued a statement Thursday that said: "Colonel Doherty is one of our finest law enforcement officials who has earned the respect and trust of his colleagues and the citizens of Rhode Island. His commitment to upholding the law and protecting our communities is unparalleled. His resignation is a terrible loss for the law enforcement community and for the state of Rhode Island. Our offices have worked well together, and I look forward to seeking his advice and counsel in the future on law enforcement issues."

Submission Anti-Product Placement For Negative Branding->
An anonymous reader writes: Product placement to promote your brand just isn't enough any more. These days, apparently, some companies are resorting to anti-product placement in order to get competitors' products in the hands of "anti-stars," with the key example being Snooki from Jersey Shore, who supposedly is being sent handbags by companies... but the bags being sent are of competitors' handbags as a way to avoid Snooki carrying their own handbag, and thus, potentially, damaging their brand.

Environmental groups are suing the state Department of Environmental Conservation over its deregulation of medium-size dairy farms, claiming the agency violated the federal Clean Water Act by easing regulations on manure.
The issue involves Concentrated Animal Food Operations, or CAFOs. Farms with 200 to 299 cows previously fell under the medium-size CAFO designation, which meant they were subject to regulations on spreading manure in fields. Farms now can own up to 300 cows before they qualify as a CAFO.
CAFO regulations are designed to protect streams and rivers from high levels of nitrogen and phosphorous from manure.
The environmental groups filing suit, including Riverkeeper and the Sierra Club, contrast with the legislative agenda of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who introduced the CAFO legislation last year during a Greek yogurt summit in Albany. By encouraging smaller farms to increase their herds, the plan was heralded by state legislators and industry leaders as a way to increase the states milk production and help meet the skyrocketing demand for Greek yogurt.
But the environmental groups lawsuit contends that DEC failed to follow the correct legislative procedure to deregulate CAFO requirements.
Katherine K. Hudson, watershed program director for Riverkeeper, a clean-water advocate organization, said Monday that studies conducted by environmental groups conclude that undoing CAFO requirements, which often require farmers to build manure storage facilities and lagoons, will make it difficult for the state to ensure farmers are following procedures to ensure manure runoff doesnt contaminate streams and rivers. She contended that without DEC playing a parental role, there will be numerous contamination problems at dairy farms.
DEC previously said it didnt have adequate staffing to monitor farms that formerly qualified as medium-sized CAFOs.
Instead of trying to prevent an environmental disaster from happening, were now going to have to wait until it happens, Ms. Hudson said. One of the things we address is the governors office never considered any alternatives, beyond these farms expanding, as ways to increase milk production. There are other ways that dont necessarily involve deregulating medium-sized dairy farms.
Ms. Hudson contended that because farms with more than 200 heads of cattle produce more manure, it needs to be disposed of more effectively than at smaller dairy farms. Studies cited by the lawsuit suggest that when too much manure is spread on farmland, there is a greater likelihood that it will flow into streams and rivers during the winter.
But Julie C. Suarez, director of public policy for the New York Farm Bureau, said the environmental impacts alleged by the lawsuit are exaggerated. She said dairy farmers who expand their herds already work hand in hand with officials at the state Department of Agriculture & Markets and soil conservation districts to ensure they are meeting environmental standards.
They will still have to make sure they do everything environmentally correctly, just not necessarily through the DEC now, Ms. Suarez said. If farmers wind up discharging manure into a stream, theyre subject to a whole host of regulations and penalties.
Ms. Suarez said she believes the former CAFO requirements for medium-sized farms were a barrier to growth. She said the relaxed CAFO requirements will help small farms increase milk production.
If a farmer has 199 cows and doesnt have a manufacturing facility, if he adds five cows hed have to add a manure lagoon, Ms. Suarez said. I think this will give smaller-sized farms a little more availability to grow cattle to increase milk demands. From my perspective, youre not going to see many farms go from 199 to 299 cattle right away.
I think the environmentals are really reaching for an issue here, and to be so fixated on a hard number without looking at the overall aspect of the farming community and what it needs to grow is absurd, she said.
The lawsuit was filed in state Supreme Court in Albany County. Some of the environmental groups leading the lawsuit are being represented by Earthjustice, a nonprofit law organization. Others are represented by the Pace Environmental Litigation Clinic in White Plains.

Mad Max ( PC)
Mad Max has a fair amount of issues that are guaranteed to frustrate, but there's a handful of delectable chaos inside that's worth being exposed to -- just maybe not at full price.
Magic Duels ( PC)
Magic Duels' tutorial mode is among the best ways to learn to play Magic, but interface problems and poor cross-device support mean the average player should look elsewhere for their fix.
Batman: Arkham Knight ( PC)
If you're a fan of the other Arkham games, you're going to really enjoy Arkham Knight, even if there's a handful of stuff you've seen before. The Batmobile and a number of new ideas and mechanics freshen the overall experience and the game's powerful brand of storytelling provides a satisfying connection between the in-game action.
Dying Light ( PC)
There's fun to be had with Dying Light, but it's not going to breathe new life into a genre that's essentially on life support.
Evolve ( PC)
Evolve is a welcome evolution from the Turtle Rock Studios team and a refreshing kind of title that you likely haven't experienced before, introducing excellent four-versus-one action that can be enjoyed on- or offline.
Far Cry 4 ( PC)
Far Cry 4 borrows a lot from the last game, but it adds enough excitement, fresh ideas and a brilliant new landscape to warrant the return trip.
Assassin's Creed: Unity ( PC)
While it will likely suffice for Assassin's Creed core fans, Unity stumbles throughout and never really finds its footing. Where last year's Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag saw the franchise reach new heights, Unity is somewhat of a sidestep that only shines sporadically.
Dragon Age: Inquisition ( PC)
Dragon Age Inquisition isn't perfect -- but pretty close and very easily the best in the series by a wide margin.
The Evil Within ( PC)
Certainly an acquired taste, The Evil Within is sure to satiate the horror fanatic. For those with an appetite for an investment-heavy exploit through the mind of a madman, The Evil Within is more than capable, even with a few bumps along the way.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! ( PC)
It's not the best Borderlands experience out there, but The Pre-Sequel is a solid entry that will satisfy Borderlands diehards most. If you've never played a Borderlands game though, try starting with Borderlands 2.

Read: The Kind of Player You Are Getting In Rick Nash
In the Columbus Dispatch, Aaron Portzline speaks with some former players and current analysts about the kind of player that some team will get in Rick Nash.
Former Ranger Eddie Olcyzk says, "Teams should be licking their chops to get this guy in their lineup. He has a chance to be a top-three goal-scorer in the league. Somebody is going to hit a grand slam with this guy."
Ray Ferraro, another former Ranger said of Nash, "This is a guy who dominated games, who put on a show. And I think he's settled into a comfort zone, now that he knows that still wasn't good enough to win."
In terms of tiers, former Islanders captain Michael Peca said that Nash was in a tier just below players like Claude Giroux and Corey Perry.

PROVIDENCE — All Jared Pedro, Kristopher Wallace and Teddy Reall are asking for is a chance to tryout for a neighboring high school hockey program come next season, when the trio will be seniors.
Presently, Pedro, Wallace and Reall are juniors and play forward for Tolman High School's hockey team, one that will cease to exist following the current campaign. At Monday's Principals' Committee on Athletics meeting, the three young men along with their parents and Tolman athletic director John Scanlon appeared at Rhode Island Interscholastic League headquarters to see what can be done in order to provide the aforementioned skaters with a chance to play hockey throughout their entire high school careers.
While the PCOA heard what was a very strong case regarding why these players should be afforded the opportunity to see if they could test the waters at say East Providence or Lincoln – like the Tigers, the Lions practice at Lynch Arena – no vote was taken. One member of the PCOA, Lincoln High principal Kevin McNamara, suggested that the matter be placed in the hands of the hockey committee. The recommendation was quickly pulled back.
For the time being, the case of granting three Tolman hockey players permission to see whether they can latch on someplace else will be taken under review by RIIL executive director Tom Mezzanotte and assistant director Mike Lunney. There are several issues and/or concerns that need to be taken under advisement, one of which is whether allowing three players from one high school to potentially join forces at a presumably close-by school for what could be considered a one-year, co-op agreement.
There's also the matter of what happens should Pedro, Wallace and Reall tryout and not make the team. If all three are successful in obtaining varsity roster spots, what's not to say that a parent takes umbrage with three "outsiders" coming in and charges that those spots belong to the players who actually attend the high school?
The hope is that some kind of resolution can be rendered in time for the next PCOA meeting on March 18.
The chance to speak before the Principals' Committee came about due to Carol Pedro, mother of Jared, and Ted Reall Sr., who wrote letters that were mailed in early November. Scanlon informed the PCOA that Tolman hockey "is at the end of the line." Jared's father, Edd Pedro, put it out there Monday to see if a special waiver could be granted that all three could tryout.
"It would fulfill their dream to play hockey throughout their entire high school career," Scanlon told the group.
"They would be an asset to any team," added Edd Pedro.
All the Tolman players were dressed identical, sporting team jackets, black pants and red ties. Representing his teammates, Jared Pedro said, "We would greatly appreciate the opportunity to play next season."
As for other issues discussed Monday, a playoff proposal has been presented to the football committee that Mezzanotte mentioned is in the "exploration" stage.
What was proposed was to take the semifinal-round contests that are typically held the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and have them contested the weekend prior to Thanksgiving. The Super Bowls would remain scheduled for the first weekend in December. Such a tweak would figure to benefit those players who are being asked to play three demanding games in an 11-day span, a practice that has been done since an extra round of playoffs was added in the late 90s.
The idea then would be to take all the Thanksgiving Day contests and turn them into non-leaguers. For the majority of the state, that's not an issue as games such as Tolman-Shea and Woonsocket-Cumberland already fall under the non-league category.
For the few league games that take place on the holiday like East Providence-La Salle, Burrillville-Ponaganset and Scituate-North Smithfield, what would happen is that the teams would meet early in the season for a league game before reuniting on Turkey Day in a non-league setting.
Mezzanotte added that the Interscholastic League's Medicine Committee has stressed the dangers of playing so many games within a tight window for years, and with regulations regarding concussions coming to the forefront on a seemingly regular basis, the possibility of changing the football postseason structure is something that should be seriously taken under advisement.
– The PCOA announced the formation of a committee that is specifically looking at the future of cooperative programs. Among those included on the committee are Richard Lawrence, director of athletics at Mount St. Charles and Woonsocket athletic director George Nasuti.
Having an independent perspective that is tentatively scheduled to report its findings to the league by the end of the school year figures to go a long way in how schools are allowed to partner up. Mezzanotte went out of his way to praise the girls' co-op hockey programs involving Ponaganset/Burrillville and Smithfield/North Smithfield, saying that both meet the main co-op criteria regarding combined enrollment.
There is concern, however, that multiple schools are joining forces to create all-star-esque programs, which Mezzanotte wants the committee to explore.
"We're not looking to get rid of co-ops," Mezzannotte stated, "but we want to look at them closely."
– By a slim 7-6 vote, the motion of allowing Division II baseball teams to play an additional non-league game was passed. That means Division II teams will adhere to a 16-game league schedule in addition to four non-leaguers. The Injury Fund game does not count as a non-leaguer.
For comparison, Division I teams play 18 league games and two non-leaguers for a regular-season total of 20 games.
– By a 9-4 margin, the motion of inviting ninth graders to participate in preseason conditioning drills for pitchers and catchers in both baseball and softball was passed. As of right now, teams are allowed to workout eight pitchers and two catchers in baseball with softball being permitted to include four pitchers and two catchers.
– A request made by the Jacqueline M. Walsh School for the Performing and Visual Arts to have its $500 participation fee waived was unanimously approved. Typically, the Walsh School uses Tolman as the high school where its athletes can compete.
– The request the Tolman High softball program made for it to be dropped from Division I to Division II was denied. The PCOA citing that once the group approves a realignment proposal, which was the case with softball at November's meeting, no appeals can be made.
– The boys' basketball team at Davies Tech was fined $100 and placed on probation for a year after using a fifth-year player earlier this season. There were no forfeitures as the Patriots lost all five games the player-in-question participated in.
– In the event of a player or coach getting ejected, he or she must complete an online sportsmanship course entitled "It's Up to You" in addition to filling out the form that the RIIL already requires. Getting thrown out of a game automatically carries a one-game suspension. The new guideline will take effect beginning with the spring sports season.

for the money this is fantastic
By RICH
from VERMONT
For the money this was my best option, goes to show you Nashbar brand name is a wise decision for the budget buyer. It not a Park Tool stand at a bike shop, but is a quality piece that I hope lasts for years. I am sure it will.
Handy stand
By katman
from Pennsylvania
Got this as a a second stand that I can move around and transport to rides. Pretty heavy construction. The quick release for the legs may move on you if not very tight, I didn't once and I almost had a bike fall over. The clamp is mostly plastic. Works ok now but I wonder how it'll hold up. Wish it had a tool tray.

Sturdier than some brand name stands, at a much lower price. Folds up small, so easy to pull out and set up. Better design than a lot of the expensive brand stands. With out a doubt best value.
Poor design
By Claude
from Denver, CO
I had the same part break twice and eventually sent this stand back. It's possible I was putting strain on it the way in trying to unfold it but I think if I made that mistake, anyone else might as well. They need to build the higher stress components out of metal rather than plastic.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Pay a bit more to save yourself trouble
The plastic parts on this just don't hold up to the strain from the folding system. This work stand broke right away and even the replacement part broke immediately. I would spend a few bucks more for another brand work stand.
You can't beat this stand for the price
By Fudloe
from Dickson City, PA
This stand has all the features of the expensive stands the big guys sell, quick release clamping, 360 rotation, height adjustable and it's stowing footprint is negligible (which for Captain Bachelor and his three room mansion, here, is a huge plus)The only issue I had was the rubber gripper pad in the clamp was a little slick and the bike rotated inward over time when clamped at the seatpost. A little 400 grit sandpaper fixed that post haste.Built well, easy to use and cheap. Trifecta of awesome for a buster like myself.
OK for occasional use, but...
By grease under my nails
from Long Beach, CA
I was so happy to finally have a work stand, and this one was fine until I repositioned the clamp to work on a different bike. The heavier bike must have been too much for the flimsy bolt that attaches the clamp to the vertical post. It's an odd design that seems fragile and fiddly, with the 1/4" bolt I mentioned running parallel with the post, and just waiting to bend with the weight of a bike suspended at right angles to it. At least now I know what to look for when I get my next stand.
Merchant response: Hi Grease - We can get you a replacement part for your stand. Give our product support department a call at 1-877-688-8600 (weekdays 9am to 6pm easter time) and we can get one out to you. Thanks Bike Nashbar

First Thing's First: Who Are We?
Today's buzzwords are collaboration, community engagement, and networked leadership across several industries. There's a lot of talk about adapting a systems perspective and moving away from linear approaches to change. These views and processes are all well and good. As a matter of fact, they hold the promise of a more holistic pathway towards ecological consciousness and societal transformation.
But what if a well-rooted identity with an ecological ancestry as well as a present day sense of place do not first exist?
Recently, I was called upon to facilitate a community collaborative aimed both at promoting the value and supporting the preservation of a rare ecosystem and at cultivating relationships in order to establish a well-founded sense of place within the Oak Openings Region of Northwest Ohio. The hosting non-profit group consists of scientists representing various organizations such as The Black Swamp Conservancy, Toledo Metroparks, the Department of Natural Resources, The Nature Conservancy, University of Toledo, and others. These agencies hope that community residents will share the same values of conservation with them and act in accordance to protect nature.
An interesting twist occurred after a series of sessions and dialogues. The locals were completely unaware that they live in what The Nature Conservancy deemed "one of the most important ecosystems in the U.S." and "one of the last great places on Earth." They also lacked a sense of shared identity.
One participant said, "I don't know how we would define our area or how to give it it's own personality. That seems to be our challenge. Who are we? What defines us? What makes us [Toledo] different from the people in Kansas City or Detroit? We have kind of an open slate here."
Others thought the region had a low self-esteem and "needs to create a new culture or somehow shift the attitude of the area."
As the conversation gained momentum some of the elders recounted the lost history of this place. They spoke of the rich jazz and blues culture; they told stories of what it was like to live here during the 1930s, '40s, and '50s. The younger generations leaned in, amazed at what they learned. People suddenly beamed with pride. They listed what they love about this place, why they choose to live here, and their hopes for future generations.
The revelation came from one of the scientists, who specializes in trees. She smiled and took time to look carefully around the room at each community member. And then she said, "I got it! It's about bringing all those different pieces together. I think that's exactly what we [as a non-profit organization] need to do, to make it a much bigger picture than we have been. For example, I am obsessed with trees. But I can tell you right now, I've talked with a lot of people and they are not obsessed with trees. I cannot start where I am. Instead, I need to make those connections you are all making."
Those connections, she said, link the area's history, arts, and people together with the natural environment.
"We need to change the meaning of ecology," a biologist chimed in. "It is clear to me now. The ecology of the Oak Openings is not the natural environment in of itself, but what about us? Humans are part of this ecology. I had not thought of it that way before."
As author Robert L. Flood pointed out in his 1999 book, Rethinking the Fifth Discipline, "We can only meaningfully understand ourselves by contemplating the whole of which we are an integral part."
The community members recognized that in order to manifest a shared sense of identity, they must think systemically—seeing the whole picture rather than separate pieces. Place-based people cultivate ecological insights that include both an individual and collective connection to the local history, community, nature, arts, and economy. It is impossible to expect people to be in close relationship with life on Earth if they are living in isolation from each other, their own history, and their own sense of self.
I learned that the people of the Oak Openings Region see the complexity of the system they reside in. However, they are deciding to begin their transformation by first asking, "Who are we?"

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
During a work meeting prior to East Carbon's City's most recent council session, local officials were approached by East Carbon Development Corporation (ECDC) administrators concerning the company's most recent proposed venture. Currently, ECDC is working to secure permits which would allow polychlorinated biphenyls or PCBs into the East Carbon landfill. While the new job would require new permitting and construction at the site, it could also re-vitalize the facility bringing increased revenue to the city of East Carbon.
PCBs were manufactured in the United States from 1929 until their manufacture was banned in 1979 when studies showed they were carcinogenic. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, they have a range of potency and vary in consistency from thin, light-colored liquids to yellow or black waxy solids.
According to those at last month's work meeting, ECDC's presentation was meant to ensure that both the East Carbon council and their citizens understand the safety precautions being taken by the local landfill. To garner their own independent view of the proposed job, East Carbon officials have also hired a consultant who will overview the manner in which the material would be transported into the area and subsequently housed.
"We will be hearing from our consultant at Tuesday's meeting," said East Carbon Council member David Avery, referring to the Dec. 13 council session. "It is our hope that he will be able to explain to both the council and East Carbon's citizens exactly what ECDC's plans are. From the information I have so far, I think this is a do-able project, I feel like ECDC is going down the right road. They have the right facility and the right people hired to get a job like this done."
According to Avery, the individual who has been helping the council and who will give his risk assessment at the open public meeting on Tuesday night is Carl Farley. Farley works as an industrial hygienist for Greenleaf Americas, LLC, a national compliance and management consultation firm.
"I also feel we have the right people hired on our end," continued Avery, while speaking about Farley. "I think he has done a very thorough job of going over ECDC's proposed plan."
The proposed plan would allow ECDC to accept the following materials through their permit parameters: PCB-contaminated remediation waste, bulk product waste, decontamination waste, small PCB compactors which have been cleaned and rinsed as well as liquids with PCB concentrations less than 500 parts per million.
As for dumping the material, ECDC plans to build a completely new cell, meaning that the material will essentially be housed in its own separate landfill. Additionally, the EPA and State of Utah require that the landfill use a specific enhanced liner system along with a segregated leaching system with a ground water monitoring component. According to those at ECDC, the new construction and safety protocols will be well worth the work if they are able to carve out a niche in the PCB disposal market.
Since its inception in 1992, ECDC's dumped tonnage has fluctuated greatly as the company has worked to find its place in the ever-changing waste landscape. This fluctuation affects not only ECDC but the city as well. A large portion of the municipality's income is derived from tippage fees assessed at the landfill. That income is used to help East Carbon pay off current infrastructure loans. Due to a large number of current clean-up projects taking place all over the country under the Toxic Substances Control Act, ECDC administrators say they are confident that their access to rail service and requested permit parameters would make the site attractive in the PCB cleanup market.
ECDC's location gives the site the opportunity to dump in several manners. At its intermodal yard, containers are moved from the tracks and trucked to the dumping area. At its rotary dump, whole train cars can be dumped at once allowing tons of material to be moved quickly. These options along with the company's experience in dealing with various types of waste give them an edge in securing various contracts, officials say.
That edge could mean a great deal to the citizens of East Carbon as increased revenue could significantly shorten the remaining time left on several bond payments.
"From what I understand, the increased possible revenue from ECDC would allow us to pay down our debts at a much faster rate," stated Avery.
ECDC is only in the permitting stage of this process. Several approvals and a public hearing will take place before landfill administrators can begin to bid on potential jobs. Following Farley's public presentation on Dec. 13, the State of Utah and the EPA will conduct a public hearing on Dec. 21.

The Battlefield in your Belly
If there was ever any doubt that modern life disrupts digestion, just take a look at the number of ads for antacids, laxatives, and stomach-soothing medications. The typical American diet and a sedentary lifestyle, paired with the sheer speed of life today, can keep our digestive tract in a constant state of turmoil.
Herbal Help for Post-Meal Distress
Try as we might to eat properly, there are those occasions when we overindulge. Thats when digestive herbs called carminatives can come to the rescue. These herbs have a long history of use for relieving gas, bloating, and indigestion.
Did you know?
If you lose weight, your GI tract will feel better. Extra abdominal pounds increase pressure on the lower esophageal sphincter, which separates the stomach from the esophagus. That pressure makes the valve open more often, allowing food and acid from the stomach to backwash into the esophagus, causing heartburn. But carrying less weight helps prevent abdominal discomfort and acid reflux.

Insight Narrator's curator insight, Today, 5:05 AM
This video highlights the challenges we have in trying to tell stories with data and the importance of turning passive, uni dimensional information that can appear purely conceptual, into a tangible story that relates to the physical world that we experience. That is why metaphors work so well in data storytelling - they help us relate to something that is already real in our minds.

This goes back to "TRUST". For stories to have an impact they should be true and verifiable. This type of story can destroy a company as well as individuals. Elaboration can do the same thing when it breaks the boundary of authenticity and truth.

5 Storytelling Techniques to Boost Business Communications
Jane Gardner's curator insight, October 2, 7:21 PM
Storytelling is King (not just content)!
Since the time around the ancients fires, we are a storytelling people and entrepreneurs should keep that in mind when they send out their messages to potential audiences. It creates a connection as we engage and relate to each others stories.

Think Functional MRI when writing/curating content. What part of the brain is being lit up(emotional) due to the story being told.
Carolyn Williams's curator insight, September 25, 5:46 AM
The message is getting out there. I write my own stories.

Well done article about the "rule of three "phenomena. Proves with examples how this rule works to "pattern" information. Brevity, memorability, and rhythm (my addition) contribute to the rule of three's effectiveness in storytelling, as well as in any form of communication.
Imagine how less interesting the story would be if it merely contrasted Two Little Pigs. Or how complex the joke would be if it started out with "five guys walk into a bar." There's just a certain magic with three.

Petit rappel méthodologique pour structurer son #storytelling avec les règles des 3 et clin d'œil amusant avec une vidéo pour enfant sur le chiffre 3.

Looks like a good tool to stimulate stories.

For better #media interviews, I recommend reading Lou Hoffman's post on how journalists approach them. Excellent tips here, including silence (as both interviewer and interviewee) from Sam Whitmore. In fact, these insights are relevant for all kinds of conversations, not just #PR. #storytelling

Unless the data tells a story, no one cares.

Hi there.
Apologies to those of you expecting a Ranting and Raving from Terry. She was busy and asked me to email her column to the paper. I didn't think it was all that great; so I hijacked it and this week's column is provided by "the husband." This week you will not hear about any of my idiosyncrasies or what I prefer to think of as "character traits."
Hey, snoring is a character trait. It is an evolutionary adaptation, informing neighborhood bears and lions that an alpha male dwells in this cave and trespassers will be reduced to rugs. It is doubly adaptive; keeping the females awake, alert and on watch for wild critters.
In the spirit of fair play and marital harmony I shall not mention any of my lovely wife's habits that I may find odd, disturbing or dangerous. In these pages, she has already copped to using a steak knife on a job requiring a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
This column's topic is the ever increasing cost of energy. We think of energy as being oil, gas and other ancient, stale hydrocarbons. In reality, almost all our energy comes from the sun. Oil, natural gas and coal are nothing more than stored solar power. The sun and earth's heating drives wind power. Point is, oil, gas and coal are not energy, they are merely a means of storing and transporting calories, BTUs and mpg.
Energy from corn is not a new idea. Native Americans used corn plants to convert solar energy to calories and human muscle power millennia ago. Our founding fathers produced ethanol in the form of whiskey and bourbon in colonial times. Making whiskey concentrated the sun's energy from corn into an energy dense liquid. This was an efficient way to preserve the corn harvest. As bourbon, the corn was not vulnerable to mice, vermin, mold, fungus, spontaneous combustion and being made into casserole by the women. Our American revolution was fueled by corn calories distilled into amber liquid courage and muscle fuel.
We all learned in junior high science that energy is neither created nor destroyed, it can only be transferred. Actually I learned that in college. They tried to teach me in junior high but I was not receptive to the message; being distracted by the fit of Angela Frizitta's sweater.
We are part of the flow of energy in the universe. We consume solar calories stored in corn and cows and use it to generate heat and movement. Death comes if our personal energy expenditures exceed energy income.
Part of my response to the high cost of gasoline has been a refusal to burn the stuff at least a few days a week. Fueled by corn energy I have been using a bicycle and muscle power for the work commute. Problem is the trip to work is mostly downhill, free energy provided by gravity; but the return trip to north Price is all uphill.
In theory coming back uphill is storing potential energy to be expended going to work tomorrow. It does not feel that way. It feels like pain, muscle burn and lung strain. It did not used to be that way in the days of my youth.
I can only conclude that along with global warming, there has also been an increase in global gravity.
Terry has another theory about that, but it is just too silly to mention here.
