|5th Annual BeerFest 'A Blast'
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 03 September 2012 05:32
Clouds, thunder, and an occasional dampening from the skies could not dampen the spirits or keep 1500 beer fans from BeerFest Saturday afternoon at the Broyhill Center on the ASU campus. The 5th annual event was, for the third year,
a sellout, days before the gates opened for the event on the grounds. The line wrapped around the building as ticket holders were checked in to the event, then the music cranked up, the seminars started, and the beer was poured from brewers across the region and across the country.

Dues/Clinic Annual Information
May 4 - PAVO dues registration starts - Fees: $135-Standards & $35-Associates + any local fees (Annually)
July 1 - PAVO dues late fee starts - $45 (Annually)
July 1 - NCAA/PAVO clinic registration starts - $25 + local fees (Annually)
September 15 - List of current-year certified line judges sent to NCAA National Coordinator (Annually)
Registration and dues payment for 2015 are now available! NCAA Registration is a separate (but related) process from paying PAVO dues. However, NCAA registration (a $150 value) is included as a PAVO member benefit at no extra cost. Please review this information carefully, and in addition here are a few reminders:
The NAIA is now requiring registration for their Central Hub for referees who work an NAIA schedule. The cost of this registration is not included in your PAVO dues. Click here to go to the NAIA Central Hub, where you can register and pay the appropriate fee. PAVO members can register for a discounted fee. If you have questions about NAIA registration, contact your NAIA assignor, or Bob Lade in the NAIA office (firstname.lastname@example.com).
Once again, the NCAA/PAVO examinations will be offered in formats tailored to certification levels. For complete information, navigate to the Examination Information page under the Current Season tab. The examinations will be available beginning July 2015.
The 2015 Rule Comparisons are on the "Current Season" page. Click here for the Current Season link.
The NCAA rules committee has determined that the current rules do not prevent the use of a computerized scorer process. However, any computerized scoring application that is used must cover all aspects of a written scorer and/or libero tracking sheet. It is recommended that scorers receive sufficient training before using a computerized system, and that the computerized scoring first be used as a parallel system to the written scoresheet until a sufficient level of competence is achieved. Any scorer using a computerized system must be trained both in keeping score and in use of the computerized software. It is also vital that the computer-scorer have a "spotter" to verbally relay the game events that the scorer must record electronically. It simply cannot be done alone.
There are two vendors that PAVO is aware of:
Both products are designed to record all scoring events and libero events, allowing one computer-scorer to manage both functions. Again, it is vital that a "spotter" also be available to assist the computer-scorer.
PAVO offers the RefSchool program to help you prepare for the women's collegiate season and have your rules knowledge maxxed out in time for the certification exam.
PAVO RefSchool is a tremendously effective tool that will increase your knowledge of officiating and improve your score on the PAVO annual examination. The testimony of the 600+ members who chose RefSchool last year are proof! The 2015 NCAA rule clarifications and points of emphasis will be part of the curriculum once the examinations are posted. And, every question from the 2015 PAVO/NCAA Form A and Form B examinations will be included in the question bank in RefSchool at that time.
When you subscribe to PAVO RefSchool, you can select brief study quizzes that cover specific NCAA rules, or elect to take complete 25- or 50-question practice examinations. You'll receive immediate feedback on your answers, as well as rule references so you can check on the correct ruling.
This effective new training tool is available to PAVO members for a subscription fee of only $10. Non-members can participate for only $15. A subscription purchased now allows you access until April 1, 2016!

The 2015 PAVO Line Judge Training Manual/Exam and the 2015 PAVO Scorer Training Manual/Exam will be coming soon! The PAVO Line Judge Training Video will be new for 2015, and plans are to have the video available by early April, 2015. The 2014 Scorer Training Video is still the most current. All of these training materials are (or will be) available for purchase soon - just go to the PAVO E-Store tab above. The Line Judge Training Manual/Exam and Scorer Training Manual/Exam are included with each video that is ordered. Both videos and manuals are also available online at no charge to PAVO members who are "approved clinicians" (typically, PAVO State- or National-certified referees and National-certified Line Judges) on the "Officials Training" page. Using these free materials, approved clinicians can give clinics to local groups at little charge.
Use the links below to learn more about how to use these tools to obtain or renew line judge certification or scorer certification.

PAVO has developed a searchable online casebook with all NCAA rule interpretations since the 2002 season. At the moment, the casebook is in the process of being updated. The casebook and search functions are fully functional but the graphics and formatting are not completely developed. You are invited to use the online casebook and send any comments to the PAVO office.
PAVO offers a free PowerPoint presentation that provides basic instruction on completing an NAA scoresheet and libero tracking sheet. Schools, conferences scorers and local PAVO boards who provide basic training should utilize this new tool. Contact Miki @ firstname.lastname@example.com
NOTE: Reviewing this power point presentation does NOT fulfill the certification requirement of attending a scorekeeper's clinic, but is intended for fundamental instruction only. More information is on the Current Season page.

Class of 1975
Flanker-Running Back >>> 6-1, 191
(Penn State)
1956-1967 Baltimore Colts
Leonard Edward Moore. . .No. 1 draft choice, 1956. . .Rookie of Year, 1956. . .Started as a flanker, moved to running back in 1961. . . Amassed 12,451 combined net yards, 5,174 yards rushing, 363 receptions for 6,039 yards. . .Scored 113 TDs, 678 points. . .All-NFL five years. . . Played in seven Pro Bowls. . .NFL Player of the Year and Comeback Player of Year, 1964. . .Scored touchdowns in record 18 straight games, 1963-1965. . .Born November 25, 1933, in Reading, Pennsylvania.
For almost a decade starting in the late 1950s, the Baltimore Colts were one of the National Football League's premier teams. Flanker/halfback Lenny Moore was a major reason for the team's successes. A Penn State product, Moore was a first-round draft pick of the Colts in 1956.
He was first used as a combination flanker and running back but his primary responsibility was to catch passes. Teaming with quarterback Johnny Unitas the two formed a terrific pass-catch combo that devastated the opposition for almost a dozen years.
In 1958, Lenny's third season, the Colts marched to the NFL championship and Moore played a leading role, contributing 1,638 combined net yards, 938 of those on receptions, and 14 touchdowns. In the Colts' overtime victory over the New York Giants in the title game, Moore grabbed five passes for 99 yards.
Following the season, he earned first-team All-Pro honors, something he would do again in 1959, 1960,1961, and 1964. Seven times he would be selected to play in the Pro Bowl.
In 1962, Moore was moved inside to the running back's slot fulltime instead of flanked outside. A series of injuries seemed to slow the fleet-footed back and caused him to miss a number of games the next two seasons. In 1963, Moore could play in only about half the team's games.
But Lenny bounced back magnificently in 1964 and enjoyed the finest season of his career, scoring 20 touchdowns. That year, one wire service picked him the Comeback Player of the Year and another named him the NFL's Most Valuable Player.
From 1963 to 1965, Lenny scored touchdowns in 18 consecutive games, an NFL-record. When Moore retired following the 1967 season, he left behind some amazing statistics, 12,451 combined net yards, 5174 yards rushing, 363 pass receptions, and 113 touchdowns.

TLC Holds Final Vote On Plan Allowing Livery Cab Hails
The city's Taxi and Limousine Commission is set to vote today on the five-borough taxi plan which, if passed, would allow livery cabs to pick up street hails in Upper Manhattan and the other four boroughs. Governor Andrew Cuomo signed a bill in December allowing the city to issue up to 18,000 permits for livery cabs that can pick up street hails. Now the TLC will hold a hearing and vote on new rules meant to cover livery hail cabs, traditional livery cars and yellow taxis. Read More: NY1
Report: City Steps Up Enforcement Of Parks Smoking Ban
After mostly looking the other way, city parks officers have been stepping up enforcement of the smoking ban in city parks. According to the Wall Street Journal, officers have handed out 108 summonses so far this year for smoking at parks, beaches and pedestrian plazas. That's compared to just 84 tickets that were issued in the first eight months of the ban. Violators face a $50 fine. The ban was originally billed as a self-enforcing law. Read More: NY1
FBI agents search Manhattan apartment for remains of Etan Patz
A team of investigators was tearing up an empty SoHo basement Thursday morning in a hunt for the remains of long-missing 6-year-old Etan Patz. The joint FBI/NYPD team, which began searching around 8:30 a.m., was reinvestigating the cold case that has captivated the nation for the last 33 years, said NYPD spokesman Paul Browne. "Information that was known at the time is being re-examined," Browne said. "It does involve a suspect. They're looking to see if they find any remains." Read More: Daily News
Hollis community leaders aim to take back abandoned buildings
Next to the scores of children enjoying recess at Renaissance Middle School's playground is a brick wasteland that stretches for two blocks in Hollis. In most of the dilapidated buildings — on one side of Hollis Ave. between 202nd St. and 204th St. — the windows are boarded up, shattered or cracked. Some have crumbling front steps. Others have walls cracked to their foundation. Weeds have taken over lawns and sidewalks, and trash is strewn in the back yards. If it looks desolate and deserted, that's because they've been abandoned for 16 years, said community leaders, who have tried in vain to buy the buildings from the landlord, Rita Stark.

The latest winter storm knocked out power at Blueshirt Bulletin HQ, preventing us from holding our chat. We will re-schedule for this week.
Onto more important matters.
As reported via our Twitter yesterday, the Rangers picked up 29-year-old goaltender Alex Auld off re-entry waivers from the Dallas Stars. Auld, once a highly touted junior prospect, has bounced around in his NHL career from the AHL and now is 7th NHL franchise.
In 21 games this season, Auld is 9 - 6 - 3 with a GAA of 3.00.
From a financial perspective, Auld's cap hit is less than former back-up Steve Valliquette's, which gives the Rangers some greater flexibility for Wednesday's trade deadline.
He is an unrestricted free agent this summer.
With 20 games remaining, the Rangers will start to steer away from the Olympics and back toward the playoff race. Last night, Olli Jokinen and Marian Gaborik battled it out for the Bronze Medal with Finland staging a third period comeback on the heels of Jokinen's two quick goals.
Gaborik, who suffered an injury against Canada in the semi-finals, returned and had a spectacular goal in the first period.
Remaining in the tournament are the dynamic duo of Ranger captains Chris Drury and Ryan Callahan. Both have been important players for Team USA and their penalty killing efforts are a big part of the team's
They will re-match Team Canada in the gold medal game this afternoon.

Note that this is not a Sega Master System. It's a Master System Girl. You know. Because it's pink. And has a girl on the front. And pastel buttons.
It was released in the mid-90s as a variant of the Master System Compact, a licensed version of Sega's classic console that was manufactured by Brazilian company Tec Toy. What made the MSC cool was that it was a wireless console, able to transmit its audio and video signals via RF (hence the giant antenna on top of the unit, which also doubled as the controller).
The Master System Girl was identical to the regular Master System Compact except for the colour scheme and slightly mad female mascot, and while both are hot property for serious collectors, who could overlook the pink one? I mean, it's a pink video game console. Outside of Japanese special editions, that's something you don't exactly see every day/year/decade.

A Watertown man was sentenced Friday in Jefferson County Court to 2˝ years in state prison for possessing heroin and a weapon in the city.
Julian A. James, 28, whose last known address was 1049 Huntington St., was also ordered to undergo an additional two years of supervision upon his release from prison after July 31 guilty pleas to third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon and resisting arrest.
He was charged in a grand jury indictment handed up in February with possessing heroin with the intent to sell the drug in July 2012. When police attempted to arrest him on a warrant stemming from the indictment in March, he pushed officers and tried to keep them from handcuffing him after they told him he was under arrest. He also was found to be in possession of a double-edged dagger, which was illegal for him to possess because he had been convicted in December 2010 of fifth-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance, cocaine.
He was sentenced as a second-felony offender based on the 2010 drug conviction. He had been sentenced in that matter in January 2011 to six months in the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Building and five years probation. He was resentenced in January to a year in the PSB after admitting he violated probation by failing to report to the probation department after completing a jail term in Philadelphia, Pa., for unrelated reasons.
In other court activity, Jason D. Clacks, 39, Watertown, pleaded guilty to third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance. He was charged in a grand jury indictment handed up in February with selling oxycodone without a prescription within the county in early December.
He is expected to be sentenced Nov. 8 to 3˝ years in prison, followed by three years post-release supervision.

Welcome to rugerpc's Wheel-O-Forum Game.
This is my obvious ripoff of a popular TV game show. Game play will proceed as follows. Each player will have a maximum of 2 turns. The FIRST half of your turn can be either a guess at a letter or a try at solving the puzzle. The Second half or your turn (if you didn't attempt to solve in the first half) must be an attempt to solve. Players lose their turns when they:
• guess an incorrect letter or a letter already guessed;
• make an incorrect guess at a solution;
• take too long to make their next move;
• Pass to the next player.
If a player passes and you are next in line - go ahead and post, you do not need to wait until the player's deadline occurs.
On your first turn in a game, you may only guess a consonant. On your second turn or thereafter, you may guess a consonant or a vowel... The use of search engines of any kind is strictly prohibited.
The first member to post will be the first player and the next members can line up with encouraging posts for the first and solidify their place in line. The first game will be limited to five (5) players. Please join the game during the FIRST round. The player next in line at the end of the game gets the first shot at the new game. A new order of play for that game will form as members line up...
Please do not ruin the game for others by guessing or solving out of turn. Spectators are welcome to post, just not letters or guesses or hints.
Your patience will be needed for this game because after each guess, I must update the board. It is also possible that players may lose their turns due to them and me not having a matching on-line schedule. That will just have to be the way it goes. I will try to make reasonable deadlines for play.
Each player will get a deadline that hopefully matches when they are usually on the Forum and also which allows for me to get some sleep, eat, do some work and play a bit of guitar
OK! Here we go! The first game is here and the category is "PHRASE"
The first member to post gets to start this game.

How To Get The Retro Look In Beach Blanket Bingo
- 1 of 13
Though Beach Blanket Bingo is part of the series of beach party films shot in the '60s, its chic, retro styling is a decidedly current look this summer. The William Asher-directed movie revolves around the shenanigans of several Malibu teenagers, such as couple Frankie (Frankie Avalon) and Dee Dee (Annette Funicello), pop singer Sugar Kane (Linda Evans), and biker gang leader Eric Von Zipper (Harvey Lembeck). Amidst romantic complications, skydiving stunts, and yes, even a mermaid named Lorelei (Marta Kristen), there's sartorial inspiration galore, from feminine, pinup-style swimwear to decidedly fashionable offshore outfits too. Click through our slideshow for today's Currently Channeling story, and be sure to shop our get-the-look picks!

How can a travel company capture the exhilaration of a trip on paper? If a picture's worth a thousand words, I'm not sure how many a video is worth – but Lindblad Expeditions might have an idea.
The travel company, which partners with National Geographic to send researchers, photographers, and other curious minds to places like Antarctica and Papua New Guinea, recently used Tags in their travel brochures to promote specific expeditions. When scanned, Lindblad's Tags take the traveler to engaging, educational videos about specific travel destinations so the viewer can get an idea of what to expect. A two-minute video for potential Baltic travelers, for example, gives viewers a close glimpse of life around the Baltic Sea in "impressionistic sketches," from a smiling girl wearing a crown of flowers to shots of the swelling sea. Lindblad's Alaska 2011 brochure uses Tags too, with a front-of-book explainer so readers know exactly how to use the Tags and why. Smart. (Check out Holland America's recent use of Tag, too.)
What do you think? Would video of a cruise destination entice you? What other ideas might make you want to hit the high seas? Let us know in the comments below or on Tag's Facebook or Twitter pages.

Gallstones are hard particles that develop in the gallbladder. The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ located in the upper right abdomen—the area between the chest and hips—below the liver.
Gallstones can range in size from a grain of sand to a golf ball. The gallbladder can develop a single large gallstone, hundreds of tiny stones, or both small and large stones. Gallstones can cause sudden pain in the upper right abdomen. This pain, called a gallbladder attack or biliary colic, occurs when gallstones block the ducts of the biliary tract.
The biliary tract consists of the gallbladder and the bile ducts. The bile ducts carry bile and other digestive enzymes from the liver and pancreas to the duodenum—the first part of the small intestine.
The liver produces bile—a fluid that carries toxins and waste products out of the body and helps the body digest fats and the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Bile mostly consists of cholesterol, bile salts, and bilirubin. Bilirubin, a reddish-yellow substance, forms when hemoglobin from red blood cells breaks down. Most bilirubin is excreted through bile.
The bile ducts of the biliary tract include the hepatic ducts, the common bile duct, the pancreatic duct, and the cystic duct. The gallbladder stores bile. Eating signals the gallbladder to contract and empty bile through the cystic duct and common bile duct into the duodenum to mix with food.
Imbalances in the substances that make up bile cause gallstones. Gallstones may form if bile contains too much cholesterol, too much bilirubin, or not enough bile salts. Scientists do not fully understand why these imbalances occur. Gallstones also may form if the gallbladder does not empty completely or often enough.
The two types of gallstones are cholesterol and pigment stones:
Certain people have a higher risk of developing gallstones than others:2
Other factors that affect a person's risk of gallstones include2
Read more about these conditions in Insulin Resistance and Prediabetes.
Many people with gallstones do not have symptoms. Gallstones that do not cause symptoms are called asymptomatic, or silent, gallstones. Silent gallstones do not interfere with the function of the gallbladder, liver, or pancreas.
If gallstones block the bile ducts, pressure increases in the gallbladder, causing a gallbladder attack. The pain usually lasts from 1 to several hours.1 Gallbladder attacks often follow heavy meals, and they usually occur in the evening or during the night.
Gallbladder attacks usually stop when gallstones move and no longer block the bile ducts. However, if any of the bile ducts remain blocked for more than a few hours, complications can occur. Complications include inflammation, or swelling, of the gallbladder and severe damage or infection of the gallbladder, bile ducts, or liver.
A gallstone that becomes lodged in the common bile duct near the duodenum and blocks the pancreatic duct can cause gallstone pancreatitis—inflammation of the pancreas.
Left untreated, blockages of the bile ducts or pancreatic duct can be fatal.
People who think they have had a gallbladder attack should notify their health care provider. Although these attacks usually resolve as gallstones move, complications can develop if the bile ducts remain blocked.
People with any of the following symptoms during or after a gallbladder attack should see a health care provider immediately:
These symptoms may be signs of serious infection or inflammation of the gallbladder, liver, or pancreas.
A health care provider will usually order an ultrasound exam to diagnose gallstones. Other imaging tests may also be used.
Ultrasound exam. Ultrasound uses a device, called a transducer, that bounces safe, painless sound waves off organs to create an image of their structure. A specially trained technician performs the procedure in a health care provider's office, outpatient center, or hospital, and a radiologist—a doctor who specializes in medical imaging—interprets the images. Anesthesia is not needed. If gallstones are present, they will be visible in the image. Ultrasound is the most accurate method to detect gallstones.
Computerized tomography (CT) scan. A CT scan is an x ray that produces pictures of the body. A CT scan may include the injection of a special dye, called contrast medium. CT scans use a combination of x rays and computer technology to create three-dimensional (3-D) images. CT scans require the person to lie on a table that slides into a tunnel-shaped device where the x rays are taken. An x-ray technician performs the procedure in an outpatient center or hospital, and a radiologist interprets the images. Anesthesia is not needed. CT scans can show gallstones or complications, such as infection and blockage of the gallbladder or bile ducts. However, CT scans can miss gallstones that are present.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI machines use radio waves and magnets to produce detailed pictures of the body's internal organs and soft tissues without using x rays. A specially trained technician performs the procedure in an outpatient center or hospital, and a radiologist interprets the images. Anesthesia is not needed, though people with a fear of confined spaces may receive light sedation. An MRI may include the injection of contrast medium. With most MRI machines, the person lies on a table that slides into a tunnel-shaped device that may be open ended or closed at one end; some newer machines allow the person to lie in a more open space. MRIs can show gallstones in the ducts of the biliary system.
Health care providers also use blood tests to look for signs of infection or inflammation of the bile ducts, gallbladder, pancreas, or liver. A blood test involves drawing blood at a health care provider's office or commercial facility and sending the sample to a lab for analysis.
Gallstone symptoms may be similar to those of other conditions, such as appendicitis, ulcers, pancreatitis, and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Sometimes, silent gallstones are found when a person does not have any symptoms. For example, a health care provider may notice gallstones when performing ultrasound for a different reason.
If gallstones are not causing symptoms, treatment is usually not needed. However, if a person has a gallbladder attack or other symptoms, a health care provider will usually recommend treatment. A person may be referred to a gastroenterologist—a doctor who specializes in digestive diseases—for treatment. If a person has had one gallbladder attack, more episodes will likely follow.
The usual treatment for gallstones is surgery to remove the gallbladder. If a person cannot undergo surgery, nonsurgical treatments may be used to dissolve cholesterol gallstones. A health care provider may use ERCP to remove stones in people who cannot undergo surgery or to remove stones from the common bile duct in people who are about to have gallbladder removal surgery.
Surgery to remove the gallbladder, called cholecystectomy, is one of the most common operations performed on adults in the United States.
The gallbladder is not an essential organ, which means a person can live normally without a gallbladder. Once the gallbladder is removed, bile flows out of the liver through the hepatic and common bile ducts and directly into the duodenum, instead of being stored in the gallbladder.
Surgeons perform two types of cholecystectomy:
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the surgeon makes several tiny incisions in the abdomen and inserts a laparoscope—a thin tube with a tiny video camera attached. The camera sends a magnified image from inside the body to a video monitor, giving the surgeon a close-up view of organs and tissues. While watching the monitor, the surgeon uses instruments to carefully separate the gallbladder from the liver, bile ducts, and other structures. Then the surgeon removes the gallbladder through one of the small incisions. Patients usually receive general anesthesia.
Most cholecystectomies are performed with laparoscopy. Many laparoscopic cholecystectomies are performed on an outpatient basis, meaning the person is able to go home the same day. Normal physical activity can usually be resumed in about a week.3
Open cholecystectomy. An open cholecystectomy is performed when the gallbladder is severely inflamed, infected, or scarred from other operations. In most of these cases, open cholecystectomy is planned from the start. However, a surgeon may perform an open cholecystectomy when problems occur during a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In these cases, the surgeon must switch to open cholecystectomy as a safety measure for the patient.
To perform an open cholecystectomy, the surgeon creates an incision about 4 to 6 inches long in the abdomen to remove the gallbladder.4 Patients usually receive general anesthesia. Recovery from open cholecystectomy may require some people to stay in the hospital for up to a week. Normal physical activity can usually be resumed after about a month.3
A small number of people have softer and more frequent stools after gallbladder removal because bile flows into the duodenum more often. Changes in bowel habits are usually temporary; however, they should be discussed with a health care provider.
Though complications from gallbladder surgery are rare, the most common complication is injury to the bile ducts. An injured common bile duct can leak bile and cause a painful and possibly dangerous infection. One or more additional operations may be needed to repair the bile ducts. Bile duct injuries occur in less than 1 percent of cholecystectomies.5
Nonsurgical treatments are used only in special situations, such as when a person with cholesterol stones has a serious medical condition that prevents surgery. Gallstones often recur within 5 years after nonsurgical treatment.6
Two types of nonsurgical treatments can be used to dissolve cholesterol gallstones:
Factors related to eating, diet, and nutrition that increase the risk of gallstones include
People can decrease their risk of gallstones by maintaining a healthy weight through proper diet and nutrition.
Ursodiol can help prevent gallstones in people who rapidly lose weight through low-calorie diets or bariatric surgery. People should talk with their health care provider or dietitian about what diet is right for them.
The Division of Digestive Diseases and Nutrition at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) supports basic and clinical research into gastrointestinal diseases, including gallstones.
Clinical trials are research studies involving people. Clinical trials look at safe and effective new ways to prevent, detect, or treat disease. Researchers also use clinical trials to look at other aspects of care, such as improving the quality of life for people with chronic illnesses.

By KEVIN SCANNELLSun Advocate reporter
Paul Willson, a 23-year-old from Sandy, was sentenced to four months in Carbon County Jail after his involvement in the death of Johnathan Tobey, age 20, stemming from an incident on Aug. 8, 2009.
Seventh District Court Judge George Harmond handed down the decision on Wednesday, March 3, which also included a 36-month probation period during which Willson must perform at least 20 hours of community service a week, a restitution payment of $3,686 and pay $500 in fines. Harmond also said Willson is not to consume or be in the presence of alcohol at any time during the probation.
"They were not strangers, they were friends," said Judge Harmond. "This is out of character for Mr. Willson based on testimony from family and friends. There is nothing I can ever do that would make up for that (victim's mother Robin Tobey's loss)."
Willson was originally charged with second-degree felony manslaughter, but on Jan. 13 in district court Willson pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of third-degree felony homicide by assault.
Defense attorney David Allred said he was pleased with the outcome and that the jail sentence handed down is near the 90 days requested by both the prosecution and defense.
"I thought it was a fair outcome," Allred said. "This was a tragic accident, not a malicious activity. Judge Harmond did a good job of analyzing the case especially with the large amount of information he was presented."
Reportedly, a group of five campers from the Salt Lake area came to the Price Recreation Area to celebrate a birthday on the day of Tobey's death. During the celebration, an argument allegedly erupted concerning a female-male relationship between unidentified members of the group. After the argument became heated, one male in the group apparently left the camp and started to walk toward Soldier's Summit, where the Carbon County Sheriff's Department later located him.
The argument continued and three members of the group decided to leave the area, but Tobey refused to get into the vehicle. To control Tobey, Willson purportedly got the man onto the ground and put a hold on the subject, which resulted in Tobey's death.
"This is a very tragic and sad event," added prosecuting attorney Gene Strate. "What started out as a happy event eventually turned to tragedy in the end."
Strate said he thinks Willson was trying to help in diffusing the situation but went too far in the end.
"It's really a sad case because it seems everything spun out of control," Strate said. " I think he (Willson) was sincerely trying to help in that situation in trying to contain Mr. Tobey, but too much force was used."
Willson was immediately taken to the jail after the decision was rendered. Judge Harmon said he would make the recommendation that Willson be credited for the time he has already served, approximately 10 days. The charge carried a maximum sentence of five years in state prison.
Willson, in a statement to Judge Harmond, said he was sorry to the Tobey family for the loss of Johnathan's life and wished for a different outcome.

Syngenta Launches First Compound Developed for Seed Treatment
May 18, 2011 | Natasha Alperowicz
Syngenta announced the launch of Vibrance, a proprietary seed treatment fungicide based on the new active ingredient sedaxane. Vibrance, which has been tailored specifically for the seed treatment market, protects major crops against a wide range of diseases carried in soil and air as well as against seed infection. Its properties also protect the entire plant root system, Syngenta says. "Research is increasingly focusing on the ability of roots to efficiently use water and nutrients as a key to further improvements in crop productivity," says John...

My wife and I decided today that Tampa, Florida is possibly the holiest Pastafarian city in the world -- owing solely to the annual Gasparilla Pirate Invasion.
Each year the City of Tampa is invaded by many krewes of pirates. Though the mayor always intends not to give up the city he eventually relents and turns over the key to the invaders.
Reading the Wikipedia page the event seems pretty mundane, but attending it is a completely different story. The event is generally massive, attended by many thousands of drunk people, a large percentage of which are clearly Pastafarians (as they are dressed as pirates). The city wisely (?) allows beer sales throughout the event, thereby ensuring an appropriate level of revelry.
Though the city tries to stop it, there is quite a bit of bead throwing from the pirate floats which seems for some reason to induce many of the revelers of the female persuasion to display their orbs. Somehow displaying ones orbs seems to result in getting more beads. Here are Google's image results for Gasparilla pirates (possible some images could be NSFW but I didn't notice any).
There is usually a separate Children's Parade which would be more family friendly and then there's the night parade that usually is a bit more, um, not. I mean, we're not talking Key West Fantasy Fest or anything (though that's pretty awesome too), but the Gasparilla night parade wouldn't be a great place for young'uns.
Anyway, if there's ever an event with more pirates in one place at one time than Gasparilla, I don't know about it. And our pirates are the true Pastafarian type -- they just want to eat, drink, be merry, oh, and hand out beads (and probably even give candy to children during the Children's Parade).
We're certainly doing our part to combat global warming.
[Tampa's NFL football team is even called the Buccaneers. I'd guess they would have called them the Pirates, but the Pittsburgh baseball franchise already had that name.]

8 U.S. Code § 1454 - Documents and copies issued by Attorney General
(a) If any certificate of naturalization or citizenship issued to any citizen or any declaration of intention furnished to any declarant is lost, mutilated, or destroyed, the citizen or declarant may make application to the Attorney General for a new certificate or declaration. If the Attorney General finds that the certificate or declaration is lost, mutilated, or destroyed, he shall issue to the applicant a new certificate or declaration. If the certificate or declaration has been mutilated, it shall be surrendered to the Attorney General before the applicant may receive such new certificate or declaration. If the certificate or declaration has been lost, the applicant or any other person who shall have, or may come into possession of it is required to surrender it to the Attorney General.
(b) The Attorney General shall issue for any naturalized citizen, on such citizen's application therefor, a special certificate of naturalization for use by such citizen only for the purpose of obtaining recognition as a citizen of the United States by a foreign state. Such certificate when issued shall be furnished to the Secretary of State for transmission to the proper authority in such foreign state.
(c) If the name of any naturalized citizen has, subsequent to naturalization, been changed by order of any court of competent jurisdiction, or by marriage, the citizen may make application for a new certificate of naturalization in the new name of such citizen. If the Attorney General finds the name of the applicant to have been changed as claimed, the Attorney General shall issue to the applicant a new certificate and shall notify the naturalization court of such action.

By TERRY WILLISSports reporter
At a sneak preview of one of next season's region opponents, Park City, the Lady Dinos wanted to make a good impression. They left the Park City Miner's worried about what next year might bring them as the Lady Dinos sent them packing in four innings with a 15-0 spanking.
It is always a coach's dream to start a season strong and the Carbon team gave Coach Tony Pinedo his wish. The Lady Dinos played errorlessly as they pounded out 12 hits to score 15 in their season opener.
Carbon scored in each of the four innings capping things off with a seven run third that pretty much ended the Lady Miners hopes of making a comeback.
Carbon pitcher Kenzie Cave gave up only four hits to the Miners as it was all Dinos. The bats were also booming for the Dinos with Hannah Downard going three of four with a pair of doubles. Alexis Oliver also slammed a pair of two baggers.
The team will take on South Sevier on the road on Thursday. Their next home game will be March 26 against Salem Hills to open region play. Game time will be at 3:30 for varsity action.

Cemetery and Funeral Home Records @ the Tennessee State Library and Archives
The Tennessee State Library and Archives has cemetery and funeral home records available in a number of formats that are useful for genealogical and other research purposes. The materials cited in this brochure are arranged by the area within TSLA where they can be accessed.
Sometimes these records include more information than is found in death records and obituaries, and they can often be used for time periods when a death was not registered with the state. Information in the records varies from business to business. Some of the microfilmed materials are indexed and some are not. TSLA also has an online guide to funeral home records at TSLA: Books and Manuscripts.

Of all the seventies relics that were dusted off for this season (disco glam jumpsuits, jeans that are both high-waisted and wide-leg, and Lauren Hutton-style safari chic, for example) we've noticed that one subtle piece is currently enthralling celebrities and tastemakers alike-the bowtie blouse.
The softly romantic shirt turned up in totally different variations on the Spring 08 runways, which means there's surely a blouse for anyone's style. At Marc by Marc Jacobs, the neck-tie top was paired with a button-festooned skirt or with brightly-colored Brady Bunch-ish pantsuits (worn with matching hats, no less-groovy!). Anna Sui balanced the inherent femininity of pretty print bowtie blouses by showing them with menswear-influenced trousers and blazers. Even Roberto Cavalli showed an affinity for necks, as he presented a haute hippie seventies-style skinny suit with a sheer blouse that tied at the throat.
One of our favorite examples of how to wear this look comes courtesy of the very darling Rachel Bilson. We very much approve of how Bilson, seen above walking her pooch, wore her hair up-all the better to show off the neckline of the blouse! While this shirt looks great tucked into high-waisted pants or skirts (for that sexy secretary vibe), it also looks very fresh worn with skinny jeans, a la Bilson and Kate Moss. Speaking of which, it's surely no surprise that Glossy Mossy lead the return of the neck-tie blouse. She tends to wear her blouses sans bow and instead lets the ends dangle down for a long, lean, low-fuss look. She's seen above her own striped shirt for Topshop, which sadly, dear readers, is sold out. We also spotted both Michelle Trachtenberg and Sarah Jessica Parker trying out this top trend. Trachtenberg was seen wearing one on the set of Gossip Girl, while SJP wore a slightly prim blouse for an appearance on Conan.
There are a number of thoughtful bowtie blouses available now. One of our favorite versions is the straight-from-the-runway Penelope Dot Sleeveless Blouse ($230) in twilight blue from Marc by Marc Jacobs. Another chic choice is the Bow Detail Silk Blouse ($198) by Walter; it comes in gray and white, but we prefer gray. While it's limited-edition and semi-difficult to find, the Picot Button-Front Shirt
($78) by Phillip Lim for the Gap is another cool option. Also check out the Veronica Cotton Shirt ($98) from French Connection. It's quite darling and comes in four colors: honey pie, black, paloma grey, and Malibu pink.

Each unique piece in our exclusive Telluride Collection features a reactive glaze inspired by the mining town of Telluride, Colorado. The deep green hue is reminiscent of the forests of the Rocky Mountains surrounding the city, while the contrasting sand colored bottom resembles the residue found in mining pans by the community's original gold and silver prospectors.
Skilled artisans achieve the glaze's special effect through a two-step process. First, the sand color is applied to the bottom of the piece and allowed to air dry. Next, the green glaze is applied to the inside and top edge by carefully hand dipping multiple times. After firing it in a kiln at 1,800 degrees F, a distinctive color band appears in the center where the two glazes overlap and fuse. Resulting variations in pattern and texture highlight each stoneware creation's truly one-of-a-kind craftsmanship.
Bulky items such as furniture and rugs cost more to ship due to greater size and weight. Therefore, a delivery surcharge will be billed in addition to the standard shipping charge.
Surcharge amounts vary. The surcharge amount is noted on each product detail page.
