Islamic State militants parade in Mosul.

BAGHDAD - The Islamic State terror group that has seized large parts of Iraq and drawn the first American air strikes since the end of the occupation in 2011 has warned the United States it will attack Americans "in any place" if the raids hit its militants.The video, which shows a photograph of an American who was beheaded during the US occupation of Iraq and victims of snipers, featured a statement which said in English "we will drown all of you in blood".US airstrikes in northern Iraq have helped Kurdish fighters take back some territory captured by Islamic State militants, who have threatened to march on Baghdad.The latest advance by the Islamic State, an al-Qaida offshoot, sent tens of thousands of members of the Yazidi ethnic minority and Christians fleeing for their lives and alarmed the Baghdad government and its Western allies.Unlike al-Qaida, Islamic State has so far focused on seizing land in Iraq and Syria for its self-proclaimed caliphate, not spectacular attacks on Western targets.US President Barack Obama said at a news conference on Monday that the Islamic State posed a threat to Iraq and the entire region.

This GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tube Duet and Quartet features a new European version with even more response, higher power, and warmer tone. It's the low-power pentode popularized in the early Vox AC30 amps. It was rediscovered by Matchless and now is used by nearly every tube amp company. It has a quick, soft overdrive distortion--great for recording but usually too low volume for live gigs.

Comments about Groove Tubes Gold Series GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tubes:
These are as good as you'll find in current manufactured tubes. You may find them expensive compared to other vendors' matched JJ pairs, but you are assured by GT that the quality control and matching are done right.
Comments about Groove Tubes Gold Series GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tubes:
Tube amps just sound better imho. So it just makes sense not to scrimp on the main ingredient. When the tube manufacturers run a "batch" it's not uncommon to have up to a 70% failure/out of spec rate depending on different circumstances so thank goodness we have the likes of GT, Ruby, TAD, and others to separate the bad ones for us.
I wanted to replace my tubes with a higher rating to get the best clean headroom from a lower wattage amp. I already knew I preferred JJ's which sound the best[to me] of the current production el84's. I recieved a pair of "8"s and they did what I wanted.
GT thoroughly tests their tubes. You have the responsibility to get the bias adjusted properly or any output tube....even GT's will prematurely fail. Have a tech do it if you can't because there's enough residual juice in a tube amp[even with the power cord unplugged] to fry you. Once this is done it should be OK as long as you replace the next set with the same # you have in the amp without a re-bias[though it's always nice to do it every time regardless]. This is an advantage if you pop a tube at a gig as long as you carry extra tubes and fuses but don't have the time to bias.
You are paying a premium for GT to match the tubes,check for microphonics,transconductance,etc. It's worth it to me for the peace of mind and it makes your amp run better and longer. Output transformers can run up to 20% cooler and closely matched tubes just last longer when they "share" the burden equally.
Comments about Groove Tubes Gold Series GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tubes:
I'm giving a low rating due to the poor quality of the product.
As for features, Groove Tubes offers better selection of types that relate to your individual sound preferences.
Aye, there's the rub... I bought a quartet of Gold EL84's for my Carvin BelAir 212 at the end of May, 2011. It is now mid-September & the tubes have failed. So far I've used the amp on less than a dozen gigs, all within 100 miles of my home, so no long road vibes. Considering the hype Groove Tubes makes for their grading & quality, this is very poor bang for the buck!
I won't purchase Groove Tube products ever again.
Comments about Groove Tubes Gold Series GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tubes:
These tubes are JJ's. JJ makes some pretty good tubes. This GT EL84 (made by JJ)has plates and getters that look EXACTLY like some of the late dutch made Phillips tubes. They dont sound as good as dutch made Phillips tubes though, they dont sound terrible. They are very sturdy tubes anyway.
Comments about Groove Tubes Gold Series GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tubes:
well i bought the tubes and when i got them installed i was hearing a completely different amp. the tone and sustain was absolutely amazing these are high end tubes and i've never heard better
Comments about Groove Tubes Gold Series GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tubes:
I've been using this tube in my Mesa Boogie Studio Caliber amp for the past 2-3 years under regular gigging use. It has stood up to many, many gigs and is rock solid. It is LOUD, clear, and very articulate. It is not just a recording amp tube, this thing screams.
Comments about Groove Tubes Gold Series GT-EL84-S Matched Power Tubes:
Do not believe the "matched" hype -- you are better off to buy the cheaper, competing, tubes and test them yourself -- in your particular amp. Groove tubes' testing procedures must be nonexistent. I bought four these things and they sound worse than unmatched tubes costing 1/2 the price. Your best bet is to avoid GT tubes !

At 12 yrs. old I was fascinated by this little box called a camera. If you pressed the button and brought the negatives to a drugstore, one week later photos would be returned in its' place. I didn't understand this magic. When I was old enough, I studied photography at Brooklyn College. I found that if I put my negatives in a thing called an enlarger a shadow would appear on photo paper. When I dropped that paper in some chemicals, a picture would emerge. Wow! I was hooked and so I studied at the International Center Of Photography. Now, I take a photo, plug my camera into my computer and the photo I just took pops up on my screen. Times have changed. I have had four one woman shows and one group show in Manhattan. It was an...

Dr. Felix M. Barte's Ratings
I simply love Dr. Barte there is no other way to put it, he treats my entire family and friends that I have sent there, he is a knowleadgeable physician and his kindness and concern are a bonus, he is thorough in his care and will investigate to offer the best treatment. I feel lucky to have him and I know my mother and daughter feel the same way. The only minus mark I give the office is the staff in the front office, they are NOT friendly nor welcoming, in fact some to the point of being rude, as i have seen when sitting in the waiting room. I have no idea how such a wonderful doctor has those women as staff?? After years of being patients I have yet to see them offer a smile or a greeting. BUT since I do not go there for the staff, but for Dr. Barte I will continue to recommend him as a great doctor.

CANTON A Star Lake man faces multiple felony charges for allegedly misusing his status with the state Department of Environmental Conservation to steal gas.
State police on Wednesday charged Cale Nolan with third-degree grand larceny, 20 counts of first-degree falsifying business records, all felonies, and misdemeanor official misconduct.
Mr. Nolan, a 12-year maintenance employee with the DEC, is accused of stealing more than $1,000 in gasoline and concealing his actions by using several credit cards in numerous locations, according to an investigation by state Inspector General Catherine Leahy Scott.
The state alleges that on at least 20 occasions from April to January, Mr. Nolan used numerous DEC fuel credit cards taken from DEC vehicles to purchase gas for his personal use at gas stations throughout St. Lawrence County. He was not authorized to make any of the purchases, as the cards are to be used only for state-owned vehicles and equipment.
Those who abuse the publics trust will be investigated and prosecuted for their misconduct. This investigation revealed alleged fraud and theft, Ms. Scott stated in a news release. Particularly egregious was the utilization of several credit cards to avoid detection of criminal conduct.
State employees are required to enter a vehicles odometer reading and a personal identification number when fueling state vehicles at commercial gasoline pumps.
Mr. Nolan, 33, allegedly entered a false vehicle odometer reading and false PIN at the fuel pump each time in an effort to conceal the purchases.
St. Lawrence County District Attorney Mary E. Rain said she will aggressively prosecute people who abuse their positions for personal gain.
It is my hope that Mr. Nolans arrest and prosecution will have a chilling effect on any governmental official entrusted to protect taxpayers interests, Ms. Rain said.
Mr. Nolan was arraigned in Town Court and was released on his own recognizance. He is scheduled to reappear in court on April 23.

Ohio Republicans will pick the new number one face and voice for their party April 26.
The favorite, endorsed by state officeholders including the governor, is Matt Borges, the party's current executive director.
But a late challenge by Tea Partier Tom Zawistowski, from Kent, is creating noise and debate.
Zawistowski argues mainstay Republicans are out of touch with and alienating the party's conservative base.
Ed FitzGerald should make it offical this week. He is running for Governor.
The party's ticket faces an uphill battle against Republican incumbents so what should his message be?
Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty and Attorney General Mike DeWine teamed up to closed down six internet cafes, vowing to put them all out of business.

As someone who lives on a multi-generational family farm in eastern Utah, I understand the importance of protecting our water resources and public lands.
Water is the lifeblood of ranching, farming and rural communities in arid Utah, and we count on our public lands in countless ways every day. That's why when it comes to oil shale development in our state it is important that we understand how it would impact our water and natural resources first before allowing it to move forward.
Under the Bureau of Interior's plan, plenty of oil shale resources will continue to be made available for companies to try and figure out how to make it work. Until a viable method is discovered, however, and until the impacts are fully known and addressed, we should not be in the business of leasing our public lands for commercial oil shale development.
Secretary Salazar, who comes from a western, multi-generational ranching and farming family himself, demonstrates that he gets it when it comes to managing our water and public lands.

I often see kids swimming in the Keller Fountain, which makes me nervous for their safety. I confess that it's also annoying to deal with screaming kids on my lunch break. Is it legal for people to swim in the city's fountains? —No Swimming
Personally, I'm in favor of letting kids swim where they want. Of course, I'm also in favor of letting them smear their bodies with raw liver while lying down in the lions' enclosure at the zoo. I guess I'm just one of those guys who likes a good laugh.
That said, you've touched on what may be the central problem of modern childhood: No matter how innocuous the activity, somewhere there's a child dumb enough to get killed doing it. This is why, historically, there's always been a fine line between "good clean fun" and "culling the herd."
Of course, these days safety concerns tend to win out over the good-natured maiming of yesteryear, and the massive, multi-chambered fountain across from Keller Auditorium is no exception.
"Keller is not designed for swimming or wading," says Portland Parks and Recreation's Mark Ross. "There are water-quality and design concerns, and people should be strongly discouraged from taking a dip." He adds that they're stepping up enforcement of the no-swimming policy at Keller.
But lest you think PP&R is all dry, joyless safety, Ross points out that they do have "splash pads" at a number of parks, "where getting wet is legal and encouraged."
These splash pads feature steel sculptures which spray water on your skeptical children. They look extremely safe, and not un-fun, I guess. Especially if your child has always fantasized about getting peed on by a jungle gym. Still, in this litigious age, that's about the best we can do.

MASSENA - Economic development officials hope the proposed Main Street LLC will be one step closer to reality after a series of meeting next week on revitalizing downtown.
Business Development Corporation for a Greater Massena officials said they would like to hold a discussion with several investors who may be interested in the joint private sector effort at its Wednesday meeting on the downtown revitalization effort. That meeting will be held at 7 p.m. in the Massena Town Hall.
BDC officials had previously looked at possible sites for the LLC - group of local investors pooling their resources to revitalize downtown buildings. But BDC Executive Director Michael Almasian said the first step is to find investors who are willing to work together on the joint effort.
First we need to have people who are invested in the idea - substantial, reliable people. Then that nucleus of people have to agree on a building (to renovate and open for business), Mr. Almasian said.
He said hed been in contact with a local developer whod expressed interest in taking a lead role in the opening and operation of an LLC, but did not want that persons name in print because the disclosure of interested parties could negatively impact the negotiations to open the LLC.
Mr. Almasian said it is not easy to find an investor who is willing to risk the time and money in trying to revitalize a building in downtown Massena, an area of limited economic activity. Not your average bear is going to buy a 100-year-old building to renovate it and open it for business, he said. Theyd have to fix up an old building, which is slow, difficult and expensive.
But BDC officials expressed confidence that they could find those investors somewhere in the community. I think there are people out there. We just need to find them and get them to move the process forward, said Patricia K. Trish Wilson, a village trustee and liaison to the BDC.
BDC officials have identified several possible sites for an LLC. At a meeting in December, board members discussed two possible locations for the proposed Main Street LLC - the Sunrise Mall at 48-50 Main St., and the Massena School of Business, near the corner of Main and Andrews streets.
Bringing a group together minimizes the risk for any one investor, said Rick Hauser of In. Site Architecture, consultant for the downtown effort.
The BDC hired Mr. Hauser in April meeting for $29,950. His firm is being paid with the remaining $35,000 acquired for the village by former state Sen. Raymond A. Meier in 2005 for economic development.
He has found that what worked successfully in the past is for a group of investors to get together collectively and choose a building to renovate, Mr. Almasian said previously. If a group of investors get together, they have less risks, less costs financially.
During a conference call with Mr. Hauser Thursday, BDC board members broached the idea of having a smaller group of investors open a building thats smaller than the previously considered sites.
Smaller projects is the new focus of the BDC, BDC board president Daniel S. Pease said.
Mr. Hauser said a larger building with a larger group of investors may be more successful. He said building space can be purchased at a better rate with a larger building and that the more businesses invest in the LLC the better the chance the LLC will be able to withstand the ups and downs of the economy.
Smaller buildings dont work well for this kind of project. In my experience, investor-driven projects are more successful with larger projects, Mr. Hauser said.
Mr. Almasian stressed the importance of having a building with the potential for more diversified tenants. He sees the School of Business as a strong location for this reason, because its a three-story building with room for offices, apartments and ground-floor retail space.

The recent horrendous casualties suffered by our military forces in Afghanistan must lead the average American to ask the simple question: Why are we still there? Of course, we are told that we are there to prevent the Taliban from coming back into Afghanistan and imposing their radical Islamic dictatorship over that country's hapless population. But as we all know, the moment we leave Afghanistan, the Taliban will be back, and it will be up to the government in Kabul to prevent them from imposing their cruel and despotic rule.
We cannot be there much longer, nor is it the responsibility of the American people, at great sacrifice in lives and treasure, to see that Afghanistan is turned into a western-style democratic society. Not only is it not our responsibility to do so, but the simple truth is that we are incapable of turning a very large, backward, primitive country into a modern state. Nations are responsible for their own destinies, and the United States does not have the right or the means to remake other nations.

Would you call the police if you suspected someone was about to drive while over the limit - and would a reward of up to £1,000 make you more likely to ring 999?
Two police forces certainly hope this is the case.
Both Derbyshire Constabulary and West Midlands Police are promoting cash rewards during December for anyone who helps them arrest drivers who have had too much to drink.
Posters have been put up in pubs and clubs in the two counties to encourage revellers to tell the authorities if they think a fellow drinker is planning to drive after a few too many.
The campaigns are highlighting the fact that the charity Crimestoppers will pay as much as £1,000 for information from the public that leads to an arrest and charge.
Inspector Greg Jennings, head of West Midlands Police's seasonal drink drive campaign, said: "Every year it is the same story.
"People seem to think that it is acceptable to have a few with their family or friends and then get behind the wheel.
"So now, via the charity Crimestoppers, we are asking anyone who is aware of people breaking the law to phone and report selfish individuals who think it's okay to drink and drive."
A spokesman for Crimestoppers says the amount an informer will receive depends on how helpful their information is to the police as well as how serious the crime is.
But motoring lawyer Jeanette Miller, senior partner at Geoffrey Miller Solicitors, says that driver education should be the authorities' priority.
"Rather than throwing money at arresting motorists, I think it would be far more logical and beneficial to invest in educating them," says Miller.
"In my view, while creative, offering a reward is a short-sighted measure intended to grab headlines rather than solve the real issue.
"Many motorists are simply unaware of how alcohol interacts with the system and the process of elimination of alcohol from the body.
"A significant proportion of my clients believed they were under the limit when they chose to drive."
Christmas and New Year is when police and the government focus their greatest efforts on dealing with drink driving due to the high number of social events during this period.
The Department for Transport's (DfT) new campaign focuses on the potential consequences that convicted drink drivers could face if they lost their licences.
As well as a conviction, points on your licence and a fine, falling foul of the law while driving could also add hundreds of pounds to your car insurance premiums.
What's more, up to 1 million people could lose their jobs as the result of a ban, according to the DfT. And a criminal record could also affect future employability.
Sussex Police uses social networking site Twitter to ask members of the public to report suspected drink drivers.
Spokesman James Glover says: "People can also text us details such as the name of the suspect as well as the car registration, make and model.
"We then pass this on to cameras and officers in the area.
"But if you are sitting in a pub and you see someone you know has had too much to drink get in their car, you should dial 999."
Sussex Police has also courted controversy with a new policy to name online anyone arrested on suspicion of drink driving.
Glover says: "At first the public reaction was mixed: some people said it was illegal - although we make it clear these people haven't been convicted yet.
"But as the weeks have gone on, opinion seems to be with us."
The police running the campaigns in Derbyshire and the West Midlands clearly hope that the public recognise the dangers of drink driving and feel obliged to report their suspicions.
Confused.com carried out an experiment last year, in which an apparently drunk man asked a number of passers-by for help getting into his car.
How many people do you think helped him?
Would you report a drink driver? Do you think cash rewards for reporting drink drivers are a good idea?

I've just watched the above video and am appalled by the number of passers-by who gave assistance to the "drunk" man attempting to get into his car to drive home. What an irresponsible lot they were to encourage a complete stranger, totally drunk, to take to the wheel instead of hailing a taxi on his behalf. I, personally, would never, ever assist an individual to drive home under the influence of drink; it wouldn't make any difference if it was a family member or friend, I would not entertain the thought. If my intervention was ignored, I would most certainly call the police. I know 2 very young girls who have lost a sibling due to a drunken driver, so the topic is close to my heart.

I've lived with a person who regularly drank and drove, until I took the keys off him. He could of killed someone or himself. I think anything which will stop them is a positive action. If you can't stop someone yourself because they won't listen, the only thing you can do is report them to the police and let them deal with it. You may be saving somebodies life.

I don't think offering cash rewards is the right way forward. Twelve years ago I was arrested for drink driving. Up until that point I would say that I did it regularly. I found the drink drivers rehabilitation course the most useful thing to open my eyes to the dangers and I am a firm believer that this type of education should be a part of the driving test. Now, if I think that there is a possibility I may have to drive the following morning, I don't drink the night before. Have quite got used to the alcohol free beers available. In fact, if the government want to throw some money at something, force the breweries to reduce the price of alcohol free products.

Firstly, I'd just like to say that I have never driven under the influence of alcohol. Quite easy for me as I don't drink alcohol period - exciting soul that I am. I know that it is 'wrong', so no 'jobsworth' replies please, and definitely no inane '......what if it was your.......' etc. If that's the extent of your thought process, stick to the Daily Mail and Midsomer Murders. Secondly, I've always found it a little contradictory that whilst a 'drunk driver' is, quite rightly, seen as unfit to drive through huge impairment of cognative ability, he/she is still viewed as being capable of making the decision NOT to drive. Although I can't think of an alternative, I have always wanted that one explained. Thirdly, I could not 'Shop a drink driver', as the slogan says. Of course as a responsible adult, I would feel disgusted, upset, and somewhat responsible should a 'drunk driver' that I was aware of, cause an 'accident'. However, I can't help but think of all of that 'snitch on a neighbour' guff that seemed to be part of the ethos of the Blair years. I suppose that it's about what sort of society we want to live in. A tenuous link may be made to a quotation of Benjamin Franklin, who said, "Those who sacrifice liberty for security will enjoy neither". And to consider Ayn Rand's views on altruism, 'if you wouldn't 'shop' your wife/husband, don't 'shop' anyone else'.

I would and I have done when a drunk driver collided with the telegraph pole outside my house. Both my neighbour and I spoke to the driver and his speech was slurred, he was staggering around looking for his dog called 'Elvis' that had jumped through the open widow to get away from the impact. He did tempt the dog back into his badly damaged vehicle, he got back in and drove off. We telephoned the local Police and he was intercepted - I actually followed him in my car at a safe distance and found him pulled over by the Police about half a mile further on. Having him hit the telegraph pole that was situated on the kerb on a straight section of road there was no telling what he would hit next - he could have killed somebody or at the very least injured himself or another road user - completely unforgivable and no doubt he, when sober, would realise this.

Drink driving is still one of the greatest menaces in relation to road accidents. There still seem to be some people who think that such drink drivers should be given a sporting chance and that random breath tests and the like are wrong. Anything but anything that reduces drink driving is acceptable. If it takes a bit of money as a reward to help with that, so be it. One would hope that most people would report without regard to payment. If anything, scrutiny and punishment is still not sufficient. Anyone who has been drinking and driving should be tipped off the end of the world.

Yes I most certainly would report a driver that had been drinking regardless of a £1000 reward. Anybody who thinks otherwise should visit a hospital ward and rehabilitation unit where the victims of these drunk drivers are having to learn to live with the inevitable results of such irresponsible actions!!!

I would report any drunk driver and would not expect a reward. I am concerned that anyone would be a passenger in a car driven by someone who had been drinking alcohol, drunk or not. I hope parents are warning youngsters. Parents who drive children when they have been for a drink should be told how irresponsible they are. I understand that with poor public transport it is not easy to ensure a safe bus/train journey home but the alternative could be a tragedy.

I have probably been guilty of driving with an excess of alcohol in my blood in the past, however, having seen the personal trauma caused by such reckless, selfish and irresponsible actions, I have in the past reported such drivers, and will do so in the future. I also believe we should be taking a similar stance with drivers under the influence of drugs.

I have absolutely nothing against people having a drink and even in excess on occasion, however with the amount of time and effort spent on everything advising us of the dangers of drink driving I do not think anyone has any excuse for doing so. Furthermore I am of the opinion that anyone who causes the death of a person while under the influence of drink should be charged with murder.

I've stopped as drunk driver who's come out of the pub. He was leg less I took his car key off his keys and dropped the key at the local police station He was due to start work 4 hours later I dropped him at his house and told his wife what is done and he got a good ear bashing off her She hid his spare key in the house so he couldn't go to work Result. He's still got his job and his family still have a house As for a £1000 I think I'd be paying some of that out of my council tax So no Not in favour

Without a shadow of a doubt, I would and have done in the past. In my mind, drink drivers are on the same level as murderers and cannot believe in this day and age it's still such an issue

Yes, and actually would do it for nothing. Would give the £1000 to the British Legion.

I HAVE BEEN DRIVING SINCE I WAS 17, I HAVE HELD A HGV CLASS 1 LICENCE SINCE I WAS 21 (I am now 61) and have only been involved in 3 accidents in all that time, none of which were my fault, One of which comes to mind involving a drunk driver. I had just picked up a D9 caterpillar (earth mover) weighing about 70 tons on a low loader from a plant in Germany, (all up weight about 100 tons) and was bimbling along the autobahn at about 9pm at night (abnormal loads only move at night in Germany, roads are clearer) orange lights flashing wide load markers all over the cat and the trailer, I saw in my rear view mirrors a BMW car speeding towards me in the overtaking lane, it bounced into the tracks on the Cat, veered across the road, hit the crash barrier veered back across the front of me and smashed into the side of a car I was following killing the family of 4 travelling in the car. The Autobahn came to a standstill, police arrived within 5 minutes, ambulances 2 or 3 minutes later to find all the occupants of the car dead, one of them was a baby no more than a year old, clearly nothing could be done for them. The police were all over the driver of the BMW like a rash. In Germany, the legal limit (breath) is 0.25 mg/L, the driver was (allegedly)1.35 mg/L, over 5 times the legal limit. If I had a normal Tractor/ trailer weighing 44 tonnes, the car would have smashed through the side rails of the trailer and the back wheels of the trailer would have run over the BMW probably killing the driver sadly this wasn't the case. , And I would have been the one breathalysed and become a statistic of innocent truck drivers involved in accidents 4 lives needlessly wasted due to some drunken idiot who didn't know his limits. The drink driving law of the UK needs to be seriously overhauled. My own personal opinion is that if you are found with ANY alcohol in your system while driving a motor vehicle, even the morning after the night before as your judgement can still be seriously impaired you SHOULD LOSE YOU LICENCE AND YOUR CAR CRUSHED end of story. If you drink and drive and get caught you deserve everything you get, sadly other people may be involved in your stupidity and ignorance, and be seriously injured or even killed. PS, I WAS also breathalysed it the scene and found to be clear, nothing unusual there, I don't drink!! My HGV licence cost me a lot of money, it's a shame other people don't realise how much it will cost if they lose their licence, In Germany, (as the law stood then) if you are found by the authorities to have 0.03 mg/L or more in your system and convicted you will NEVER get insured to drive a motor vehicle again.

The Carbon High Lady Dinos volleyball team is finding out Region 12 play will be very difficult to navigate through as they fell to North Sanpete in four sets.
Carbon and North Sanpete played a close first set which went down to the wire, but the Lady Dinos were able to take the set as they lost 27-25.
In the second set, the Lady Dinos were able to even up the game at 1-1 with a 25-18 set win.
However in the third set, North Sanpete took control of the game as they posted a 25-21 win.
And in the fourth and final set, the Lady Hawks ran away from Carbon by way of a score 25-6 to win the game.
Senior middle hitter Amanda Freestone finished with 19 kills and senior outside hitter Rachel Scoggins added 9 more.
Senior Shaylie Jones finished with 30 assists.
Junior libero Jennee Martinez led the Dinos with 12 digs, Jones added 11 digs and junior Ashley Quinton finished with 8.
Carbon is now 3-7 (3-3, Region 12) on the season. They are currently in third place behind league leaders Delta 11-3 (6-0, Region 12) and North Sanpete (6-3 (4-1, Region 12).
The Lady Dinos will next travel to Salt Lake City for a tournament on Friday and Saturday.

Tucson schools submit new desegregation plan
TUCSON — The Tucson Unified School District has outlined its latest plans to free itself from federal oversight of its desegregation efforts to a federal judge.
The plan submitted Friday focuses on balancing the racial makeup of schools, improving the hiring and retention of minority employees, and improving educational opportunities for black and Hispanic students, according to a report 9 in the Arizona Daily Star. It also focuses on changes needed in such areas as facilities and technology, discipline, family and community engagement, transportation of minority students, student assignment and extracurricular activities.
It provides specific timelines as to when the district must meet the plan's requirements.
District spokeswoman Cara Rene says the public can comment on the latest plan until Nov. 28.
The district has been under a court desegregation order for more than 30 years. The case began with a class-action lawsuit filed by parents of Hispanic and black students against the district.
The desegregation order was lifted in 2009 but reinstated last year after a federal appeals court found the district judge erred in lifting it despite finding the district hadn't acted in good faith.
The district receives millions of dollars in funding each year to help pay for programs and policies required under its desegregation plans. The city's largest district has more than 51,000 students, with about 32,000 Hispanic and about 2,800 black students.
An attorney for the black plaintiffs was satisfied with the most recent plan.
"It's a very well-written, designed plan," said attorney Rubin Salter Jr. "There are some out-of-the-box things in there."
Board members interviewed by the Star generally like it as well, with some reservations.
"This plan is clearer. It's better written and easier to understand," said board member Mark Stegeman, while saying he was worried about bus assignments that would consider student ethnicity.
"It creates the potential for people to argue about if they've been correctly assigned," he said.
The plan as a whole is "intrusive," but he still considers it reasonable, he said.
"The district brought that on itself. The plaintiffs don't trust us. I'm not sure if the court trusts us," he said. "I think they have their reasons."
Board member Adelita Grijalva hoped the plan would specifically address the return of the district's disbanded Mexican American Studies program and felt the requirement for culturally relevant courses was too vague, she said.
"I was hoping it would give specific direction" for Mexican American Studies to return, she said.
The plan requires the district to help improve black and Hispanic students achievement by creating "socially and culturally relevant curriculum," including courses that center on the experiences of black and Latino communities. It must be in place by next school year.
The Mexican American Studies program was dismantled in January after the classes were banned by state law. It's unclear how the district would craft new classes to meet both the state restrictions and requirements of the proposed federal settlement.
Board member Michael Hicks said he disagreed with the new plan's requirement for culturally relevant courses.
"The idea is to intermingle children and desegregate," he said, not put them in separate classes.

This week, we started a frightening little feature on the Pure Mobile blog with a list of our favorite Halloween-themed smartphone apps.
In our first instalment, we rounded up some eerie apps for iPhone, but today, we'll be moving along to the best Halloween apps for Android.
From games and photo editors to real ghost detectors, your smartphone will have all the spooky it can handle come October 31, with these seasonal picks
1. Angry Birds Seasons for Android
Who doesn't love Angry Birds? Wll, the pigs are back for Halloween with Angry Birds Seasons, which includes special "Ham'O'Ween" levels.
It's the same physics-based fun that has made us all addicted to smartphone gaming. But this time, it's got haunted backgrounds, pumpkins to smash, and a generally cutesy Halloween look.
Angry Birds seasons is also available for iPhone and iPad.
If you've ever wanted to go ghost hunting, SpecTrek lets you chase spectres using your smartphone's GPS. The augmented reality game shows you "ghosts" on a map of your area and gives you a time limit to find and capture them.
It may be kind of silly, but hey, it's probably the most fun you'll ever have using a smartphone GPS.
3. Entity Sensor Pro app for Android
If virtual ghosts don't cut it for you, the Entity Sensor Pro app for Android claims to let you detect "real" ghosts using a supposed EMF sensor in your smartphone to check for "paranormal" readings.
It's essentially like playing Ghost Busters with a mobile device. Whether or not you actually believe in ghosts, the app has a pretty high rating among users.
And even if you think it's useless as a ghost detector, you can always use it with friends as a gullibility detector.
4. Ouija Board app for Android
Like so many classics, the Ouija Board has been revamped for modern mobile devices.
Use your smartphone to try making contact with the spirit world, or simply relive the fun of middle school with this Android app. In any case, it gives new meaning to "the ghost in the machine."
5. Ghost Camera Pro app for Android
Halloween pictures looking like dullsville? Think a specter would spice things up?
You can add a little eerie appeal to party pics with the Ghost Camera Pro smartphone app for Android.
The app lets you choose from a bunch of different types of ghosts and spirits (not just the cute kind pictured above) and insert them into pictures on your device. You can also edit the size, color and opacity of your ghosts.
We consider this more of a humor app, especially if some of some of your subjects have been going at the punch bowl hard.

David Williams, Organizational Systems
David WilliamsOrganizational Systems Alumni
It's early morning and Organizational Systems Alumni David Williams, PhD is on a virtual meeting coaching hospital teams across the Atlantic. In the Southwest of England, nurses are trying to reduce hospital-associated infections in acute hospitals. Headset on and consciously listening, he hears stories from frontline staff who have been doing small Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles to test change ideas on the unit.
Dr. Williams' journey to become one of the nation's leading experts on emergency service and health care efficiency was far from traditional, but today he's helping hospitals and ambulance services around the world save lives.
A guidance counselor convinced David to volunteer as a firefighter with a small town fire department in hopes it would inspire him to go to medical school. Instead, he went on to college and studied in one of the first bachelors programs focused on the management of Emergency Medical Services and worked as a city paramedic nights and weekends. After a decade of frontline experience and a leadership role in quality improvement, he enrolled at Saybrook University.
"I started the doctoral program in Organizational Systems while I was the Commander over Quality for the Austin, Texas EMS system. One of my courses was on consulting skills and Professor Nancy Southern enabled me to work with an EMS Consulting firm as part of my studies to gain hands on experience and make the learning include pragmatic application." At the end of the semester, the firm offered him a role as a senior consultant and he spent the next six years reviewing and improving EMS systems around North America, training leaders of 911 centers and ambulance services, and conducting industry research on practices and performance.
After a major federal report found that EMS system design and operations were lacking, David's Saybrook dissertation became the first significant study to examining system design holistically and identify the obstacles to a patient-centered approach. His dissertation was honored as the Saybrook dissertation of distinction for 2010. "I was humbled by the recognition of the work and my Mom was very proud."
In 2005, Dr. Williams began his own firm – TrueSimple – based in Austin, Texas. In addition to his expertise in EMS system design, he continued to develop his passion for process improvement. Momentum had been building for nearly a decade in healthcare to apply improvement science to enhance patient safety and reduce medical risk. One of the leading champions of the work is the Institute for Healthcare Improvement in Cambridge, MA. In 2009, Dr. Williams was invited to join their faculty and became a member of small group of improvement advisors that support improvement collaboratives around the world.
"We teach hospitals and healthcare providers about rapid cycle PDSA testing and measurement for Improvement and coach teams to test change ideas to improve outcomes," he said. This work has taken him across North America, the United Kingdom, and Portugal working with some of the top patient safety experts in the world. "It's been a great learning curve and wonderful community and I'm excited to know our work is helping to protect patient's and save lives."
When he reflects on Saybrook University and the effect it had on his career and life's work, Dr. Williams says, "I think back to my time at Saybrook University and I'm thankful for the opportunities it enabled, the way faculty like my dissertation chair Dr. John Adams and others pushed me, and the great friends I have to this day."

The U.S. Small Business Administration announced in August the launch of new online resources for young entrepreneurs at the Mind Your Own Business teen Web site http://www.mindyourownbiz.org/, to help young entrepreneurs succeed in the world of business.
The SBA and JA Worldwide (Junior Achievement) have teamed up to develop three new Mind Your Own Business resources: a student activities guide, a volunteer guide, and an assessment tool - Start it, Grow it, Own it! - that serves as a companion tool to the student activities and volunteer guides. Each of these resources is available at the www.mindyourownbiz.org Web site, and is cosponsored by JA Worldwide.
Titled Make It Your Business, the student activities guide includes an interest inventory and group activities designed to teach teens the fundamentals of business ownership. The Make It Your Business volunteer guide instructs group leaders through student business sessions that can be implemented in the classroom, in student clubs or in an after-school setting.
The SBA and JA Worldwide introduced the Mind Your Own Business teen Web site to provide support to the growing interest in entrepreneurship among teens, and to serve as a small business portal for youth entrepreneurs.
The Mind Your Own Business Web site introduces five easy-to-navigate steps on business ownership for the entrepreneurial-minded teen, each with helpful information for young entrepreneurs who want to start, run or grow their own businesses.

TOWN OF TONAWANDA, N.Y. -- A local real estate agent is getting an opportunity of a lifetime. One of her listings is going to appear on NBC's Today Show.
Robyn Suppa of New York State Realty sent the show some photos and video of a home she's listing in the Town of Tonawanda. Each Friday Today has a segment that features great real estate buys from all across the country, all for under $200,000. This Friday 61 St John's will get national exposure.
"It was really neat that they picked my listing out of all these listings because of the work I put into the pictures and the virtual tour. So it was overall very exciting for me," said Robyn.
"To us, it's a great plug for Buffalo and Western New York, and it shows that our real estate market is strong, and this is the place to buy," said Tom Mazzone with New York State Realty.
Robyn adds she's hoping for multiple offers for the home after Friday's big reveal, which you can see on NBC and Channel Two.

Very simple web server listening on port 80 will serve index.html file or whatever file you like pointing your browser at http://your-IP-address/index.html for example.
If your web server is down for maintenance and you'd like to inform your visitors about it, quickly and easily, you just have to put into the index.html file the right HTML code and you are done! Of course you need to be root to run the command using port 80.
Find all files in /var/spool/mqueue older than 7 days, pass to perl to efficiently delete them (faster than xargs or -exec when you've got millions or hundreds of thousands to delete). Naturally the type, directory, and file age vars can be adjusted to meet your specific needs.
Instead of deleting an existing symlink and then re-creating it pointing at the new location, it is possible to perform the same action with this one command.
Interesting discussion on whether this is possible to do atomically here: http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=526119
Specify the size in bytes using the 'c' option for the -size flag. The + sign reads as "bigger than". Then execute du on the list; sort in reverse mode and show the first 10 occurrences.
By default, slot 1 is used for OTP purposes and validates against the Yubikey servers. Running the command above will replace that. If you have a Yubikey 2 or above, you can change -1 to -2 and program the second slot with a strong static key.
Linux specific, requires iproute2 (but most distros have that by default now)
This command is Linux compatible.
It will prompt the user for a new password at next logon
Same as 7272 but that one was too dangerous
so i added -P to prompt users to continue or cancel
Note the double space: "...^ii␣␣linux-image-2..."
Like 5813, but fixes two bugs: [1]This leaves the meta-packages 'linux-headers-generic' and 'linux-image-generic' alone so that automatic upgrades work correctly in the future. [2]Kernels newer than the currently running one are left alone (this can happen if you didn't reboot after installing a new kernel).
There is a huge number of supported "languages" to which you can export your .fig figures to. See. 'man fig2dev' (http://linux.die.net/man/1/fig2dev).
Requires installed command line PHP. Also, try at different dimensions of terminal window
Will rot 13 whatever parameter follows 'rot13', whether it is a string or a file. Additionally, it will rot 5 each digit in a number

I'm bummed that this took 228 characters. I'd like to see a simpler version.
Loop is needed if you have more then one card.
probably only works if you have one graphics card.
used this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-find-linux-vga-video-card-ram/
as reference
can be expanded, for example:
lspci -v -s `lspci | awk '/VGA/{print $1}'` | sed -n '/Memory.*, prefetchable/s/.*\[size=\([^]]\+\)\]/\1/p'
will just get the amount of prefetchable memory
compare to:
lshw -C display
which does not give the size (it does give byte ranges and you could calculate the size from that, but that's a pain)
Also uses a command which is not standard on linux; wheras lspci is a core utility provided by most systems
Listens for events in the directory. Each created file is displayed on stdout. Then each fileline is read by the loop and a command is run.
This can be used to force permissions in a directory, as an alternative for umask.
More details:
The command was too long for the command box, so here it is:
echo $(( `wget -qO - http://i18n.counter.li.org/ | grep 'users registered' | sed 's/.*\<font size=7\>//g' | tr '\>' ' ' | sed 's/<br.*//g' | tr ' ' '\0'` + `curl --silent http://www.dudalibre.com/gnulinuxcounter?lang=en | grep users | head -2 | tail -1 | sed 's/.*<strong>//g' | sed 's/<\/strong>.*//g'` ))
This took me about an hour to do. It uses wget and curl because, dudalibre.com blocks wget, and wget worked nicely for me.
look at /boot/grub/menu.lst for somethig like:
## additional options to use with the default boot option, but not with the
## alternatives
## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5
## defoptions=vga=795
# defoptions=vga=873
## altoption boot targets option
## multiple altoptions lines are allowed
## e.g. altoptions=(extra menu suffix) extra boot options
## altoptions=(recovery) single
# altoptions=(verbose mode) vga=775 debug
# altoptions=(console mode) vga=ask
# altoptions=(graphic mode) quiet splash
# altoptions=(recovery mode) single
vga=(decimal value) is framebuffer mode
I use this command in my Conky script to display the number of messages in my Gmail inbox and to list the from: and subject: fields.
Tail all logs that are opened by all java processes. This is helpful when you are on a new environment and you do not know where the logs are located. Instead of java you can put any process name. This command does work only for Linux.
The list of all log files opened by java process:
sudo ls -l $(eval echo "/proc/{$(echo $(pgrep java)|sed 's/ /,/')}/fd/")|grep log|sed 's/[^/]* //g'
Takes all .flac directories, feeds them into a simple transcode pipeline to spit out .wavs with the same name (but correct extension).
I have come across a situation in the past where someone has unlinked a file by running an 'rm' command against it while it was still being written to by a running process.
The problem manifested itself when a 'df' command showed a filesystem at 100%, but this did not match the total value of a 'du -sk *'.
When this happens, the process continues to write to the file but you can no longer see the file on the filesystem. Stopping and starting the process will, more often than not, get rid of the unlinked file, however this is not always possible on a live server.
When you are in this situation you can use the 'lsof' command above to get the PID of the process that owns the file (in the sample output this is 23521).
Run the following command to see a sym-link to the file (marked as deleted):
cd /proc/23521/fd && ls -l
Truncate the sym-link to regain your disk space:
> /proc/23521/fd/3
I should point out that this is pretty brutal and *could* potentially destabilise your system depending on what process the file belongs to that you are truncating.
