In a recent survey performed by Crowd Science ArsTecnica is reporting that 40% of BlackBerry users indicated they have plans to switch out their BlackBerry for an iPhone when their contracts are up. Some other interesting facts that this survey dug up are:
- 33% of iPhone owners and 16% of BlackBerry owners use their device exclusively for personal use, not work
- 1% of iPhone owners and 7% of BlackBerry owners use their device exclusively for business purposes
- 66% of iPhone owners and 77% of BlackBerry owners are using their device for both business and personal purposes
While the 40% might not be all that accurate and is probably a little on the high side, the survey had a margin of error of +/- 10%, it is still an alarming number for BlackBerry to consider. Even at 30% BlackBerry has to do some careful evaluation of their product to ensure some customer loyalty and not lose their entire customer base to the more personal use friendly iPhone and Droid devices.
This survey should be an eye opener for BlackBerry and show that their consumers are looking for a device that they can use for both their personal and business needs. By offer some more apps that cover the personal uses their consumers are looking for BlackBerry will certainly be making their current users much happier.

Thanksgiving Side Dish Recipes
Although the turkey is the star of the Thanksgiving meal, I find that I spend more time planning the side dishes. There is only so much that you can do with the turkey so I spend a lot of my creativity coming up with exciting and tasty side dishes. I do try to restrain myself a bit though as the Thanksgiving dinner is already really big and it requires a lot of time and effort to make. As a general rule of thumb, I try to go with one green vegetable and one potato or squash side dish and then maybe one or two others and the sky is the limit for the extras! Sometimes it is nice to go with old favourites or maybe a new take on a classic and I like to try at least a few completely new dishes every year.

A proposal by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo to reduce the price of hunting and fishing licenses and ease the process of obtaining them has the potential to bring more tourists to the north country.
Making sporting licenses affordable will generate tourism, which will also economically help hotels, campgrounds, gas stations and grocery stores, Kathleen A. Bouchard, Ogdensburg city clerk, said in an email.
The governors proposals, which he included in his amended executive budget, have been passed on to the Legislature. The budget is due April 1.
Specifically Mr. Cuomo proposed reducing the cost of annual fishing licenses from $29 to $25, annual hunting licenses from $29 to $22 and cutting the annual muzzle loader license nearly in half, from $21 to $11.
The governor wants to enable out-of-state residents to enjoy the states recreational activities at a reduced price in an effort to draw more tourists.
Annual fishing licenses for out-of-state residents would drop from $70 to $50. Annual hunting licenses would be reduced from $140 to $100. Annual bow hunting costs would decrease from $140 to $40, and daily fishing and turkey hunting licenses would also be reduced.
The state scheme for hunting and fishing licenses was overly complex, burdensome and somewhat bizarre, Mr. Cuomo said in a press conference Wednesday announcing the proposal.
Randy R. Yager, owner of Guided Bass Trips, a bass fishing guide operating on Black Lake, the St. Lawrence River and in central Florida, said the reductions in the price will help his customers, most of whom are tourists.
Mr. Yager said while most of his clients fishing in the north country purchase daily fishing licenses, people in neighboring states will often purchase annual licenses.
The drop from $70 to $50 is the big one, Mr. Yager said.
Fishing licenses will also be put on a new schedule if the governors proposals are approved.
Currently fishing licenses are only valid from the time they are purchased until the end of the season. Mr. Cuomos proposal would make fishing licenses good for a year from the time they are purchased.
Thats a big change, Mr. Yager said.
He said it would substantially clarify the licensing process in New York.
Mr. Cuomo noted in a news release that sporting activities like hunting and fishing draw in roughly $8.1 billion for the state. According to the release, there were roughly 1.88 million fishing licenses issued in the state in 2011 alone and 823,000 hunting licenses.
Mrs. Bouchard didnt have data for the potential impact of Mr. Cuomos proposals on the region, but said, The economic impact on St. Lawrence County this August for the Bassmaster Elite Tournament [in Waddington] is projected to generate $2 million in tourism. Reducing the cost of the licenses will definitely draw in sportsmen and women who previously couldnt afford the license packages.

NORFOLK State police are looking for a Norfolk woman in connection with a grand larceny case in which investigators believe an area priest may have been misled in efforts to collect more than $250,000 for a needy individual.
Bobbie Jo Zeller, 36, is wanted for multiple counts of third-degree grand larceny, first-degree identity theft, fourth-degree grand larceny and second-degree criminal possession of a forged instrument.
Bureau of Criminal Investigation Senior Investigator Judith M. Trimboli, Massena, said the minimum amount collected in the alleged scam is $270,000.
She is being sought in connection with an on-going course of conduct. Numerous subjects provided her with money under false pretenses. I dont think we will ever reach every victim in this case. She said she needed money for certain reasons. Those reasons are not accurate, she said,
The case stemmed from reports of a former Waddington priest who had solicited tens of thousands of dollars from parishioners and friends and in attempt to assist a woman he was led to believe was destitute.
Officials with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Ogdensburg said in February Monsignor Robert L. Lawler, the former priest at St. Marys Catholic Church in Waddington, collected money for someone he wrongly was led to believe was in dire financial straits.
Our understanding is Monsignor Lawler was the victim of a scam that went on for a period of time, the Rev. Kevin J. OBrien, moderator of the curia for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Ogdensburg, said in February. He thought he was assisting someone, but the reason for need appears to have been false.
Investigator Trimboli said all of the money Ms. Zeller collected over the past several months did not go through Monsignor Lawler. Monsignor Lawler was not the only avenue she went through to obtain money under false pretenses, she said.
Troopers describe Ms. Zeller as a white female with brown hair and blue eyes. She is 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs about 180 pounds. Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to contact the state police at 769-8406 or 379-0012.

LISBON – Taxpayers in Lisbon may have mistakenly been charged to use the town beach, and the town council is offering refunds to anyone with documentation proving they were charged in error.
According to regulations passed by the town council last year, residents and Lisbon taxpayers can get season passes to use the beach for free.
The passes were formerly $10 each.
Passes, which are designed to be stuck to a vehicle, were given out with this years tax bills, Town Clerk Donna D. McBath said, and they can also be picked up at the Town Hall.
But a failure to communicate lead to some residents being charged to receive a seasonal pass for the beach.
Nobody said anything to me, Michael J. ONeil, director of the Lisbon Beach and Campground, said about the new system.
The failure to communicate resulted in some residents being admitted for free if they had a pass they received in the mail or at the Town Hall, and others being charged $10.
Its unclear how many people were mistakenly charged.
To ensure only town residents are using free seasonal passes, the town council said they will be made available only at the Town Hall.
Councilor Alan D. Dailey said keeping the distribution of the passes confined to Town Hall will allow Mrs. McBath to ensure everyone getting the pass is a taxpayer within the town.
The purpose of this is to make it equitable, Town Supervisor James A. Armstrong said of the decision.
Councilor Susan M. Duffy said this way residents will be able to come and go as they please [from the beach].
Anyone who can prove they were mistakenly charged should report back to Mrs. McBath at the Town Hall for a refund.

Just wait until you see the power adapter. It's going to be HUGE.
A friend of mine got an Inspiron 51XX and the adapter was almost the size of a small power supply. I'm not sure why they can't trim those things down?
my box is starting to act kinda flakey... so i figured i should buy a new one. but this time, i'm gonna go for a laptop instead of a desktop.
so this is what i ordered:
dell inspiron 9100
PIV 3 Ghz (hyperthreading), 1MB L2 Cache, 800Mzh FSB, 15.4 widescreen WSXGA+ TFT screen (resolution: 1680*1050), 1gig of RAM (400 Mhz), ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 and 100 GB Ultra ATA/100 HD (only 4200rpms though... it didn't let me select a faster one, but since it's got a gig of ram, it's hardly gonna be swapping anyway so i guess the HD will be okay), and a 24xCDRW/8x DVD combo drive plus some other standard stuff
it was pretty expensive though (2700) but i thought "oh what the hell"
btw, i know it's a pretty heavy laptop (about 4kg) but i won't be carrying it around with me a lot, so i don't mind
Just wait until you see the power adapter. It's going to be HUGE.
A friend of mine got an Inspiron 51XX and the adapter was almost the size of a small power supply. I'm not sure why they can't trim those things down?
Those things are huge.
Someone I know has one, and it's referred to as 'the silver slab'. It hurts her shoulder to carry it.
I sure hope you're not a 140 cm tall lady, or you're in for a sore shoulder.
i still wonder if i should have bought a dell instead of an apple. cheaper, more choice of linux distros, can play games. but i got this ibook, mac os x is meh, gentoo linux is meh. im hoping yellowdog 4 will kick some ass and put life into this laptop.
I would sacrifice a few virgins just to be on the safe side when it comes to stability.
yea i know the power adaptor is huge... it's like a brick. and i know it's a heavy and thick laptop... but that really doesn't bother me. i just want a really powerful machine. i'm gonna be using this as a desktop replacement mostly anyway so the size/weight is not a concern of mine. But the ability to easily use it somewhere else has become very appealing to me. that's why i'm not getting a new desktop.
bad news: well my box just died today... really weird, 4 days ago it was working perfectly and during these 4 days it has gotten to the point where it's just no longer usable
good news: i'm gonna cancel that laptop order because today i found out that i can get the same dell laptop with slightly better hardware (3.2 Ghz CPU instead of 3 Ghz, Ati Radeon Mobility 9700 with 128mb of RAM instead of 64mb, and a DVD writer instead of just a CDRW/DVD combo drive) for the same amount.... apparantly they have a couple of different editions of this 9100 inspiron and i had first selected the X-Treme edition, but if i go for the X-Treme Multi Media edition i can get a free memory upgrade (from 512 to 1024) which would otherwise cost me about 320 with the regular X-Treme edition. So with that extra 320 i was able to turn it into an even better machine for the same amount
the only bad thing is that i'm probably gonna have to wait for like 2-3 weeks before it'll get here... which means i'm stuck using my parents' box which is quite old and slow
Are you getting it new?
Have you ever tried to go to Dells web site and go to their refurbished section?
They have some pretty nice laptops at reasonable prices.
yea i'm getting it new... it should be delivered on Friday
and i really wanted a new one instead of a used one because i wanted a beast of a machine and since money isn't an issue i figured "why not?"

My face is narrow and my eyes are closely set, so it's very hard to find glasses, period. I have found that reading glasses work best for my computer work ~ better than uber-expensive glasses. However, I look ridiculous in most reading glasses because they're huge on me. These are still big for my face, but I wouldn't absolutely die of embarrassment if someone saw me wearing them. The only drawback was mentioned by someone else: the nosepads hurt after a while. I bought some of those little stick-on pads and (duh) stuck them on, so now the glasses are fine.
The description says for small faces, and apparently mine is not. They were tight and felt a little heavy to me. I ordered a 4.0 magnification which made the lenses very thick in this style. Going to return them, and look for others. Wish there were more rimless, lightweight round/oval options! Great company regardless!
For the past several years I have searched for glasses that satisfy me. These are the best ones I have found. I find glasses to be very uncomfortable so I try to find the most lightweight ones. I also prefer no rim so they "disappear" on my face. I really like the size and shape of these glasses. I don't find them to be small at all like a previous reviewer mentioned. I do wish though that someone would make nose pieces that are more comfortable.
These are sized for a childs face. Unwearable for me.
The is the 3rd pair I purchased. The style is exactly what I'd been looking for. I wanted extras cause I love em.

Read: How Sidney Crosby and Mark Recchi Look At The Lockout
Mark Recchi went though two lockouts as a player in the NHL and spoke with Kevin Paul Dupont, in the Boston Globe, about the lockout that is currently going on.
Rechhi says that the deal for the players is only going to get worse and while he doesn't suggest that the players accept a bad deal they should get one deal as soon as they can.
He says, "obviously, it has to be fitted. But OK, get it right, then sign the thing for 10 years, get back to playing, and don't worry about it anymore. You don't want to go through this again in five or six years.''
Sidney Crosby said at TSN that if something doesn't happen soon everyone involved will end up with one in the loss column,"The desperation to play doesn't really seem like it's on their side. I think there's a deal to be made and I think negotiations have to go better if there's going to be a deal. If it keeps going like this, I mean, everybody's going to lose. There's no way around it, everybody's going to lose."

Buzz: A Dan Boyle For Marian Gaborik Trade Almost Happened?
Boyle, 36, has two more years left on his contract at $6.66 million per season and has a no-trade clause.
Boyle played under John Tortorella from 2001-2008. Since the lockout, in seasons where he has played more than 37 games, Boyle has not had fewer than 48 points. He is a right handed shot.
Gaborik also has a no-trade clause.
Adam Rotter: Boyle, because of his relationship with John Tortorella, would be a logical target for the Rangers. He is a righty shooting, veteran offensive defenseman who has won a Stanley Cup. I don't think the Rangers would move Marian Gaborik for him, but in theory, a move like this would then lead to the Rangers acquiring Rick Nash.

What is a Direct-Set culture? Direct-Set cultures are a one-time-use culture, they cannot be recultured (i.e. perpetuated beyond the single batch). Direct-Set cultures are often preferred by cheese makers as they require no maintenance or care. Simply keep the packet in the freezer and remove the portion for your recipe when it's time to make cheese. Most Direct-Set cultures contain multiple doses to inoculate multiple batches.
Please note, this particular product contains both starter culture and rennet in each packet.

- From Jennie at 4/14/2011 6:25 PM
- The directions say to use pasteurized milk, but is it ok to use raw? Does that change the texture?
- Hi Jennie,
Raw milk has live cultures in it that may compete with the starter culture. You can pasteurize your raw milk to use for this cheese if you wish.
Hope that helps,

Can i use a can of coconut milk instead of cream of coconut?
I really don't know that answer to that. The cream of coconut is like sweetened condensed milk - very sweet and thick. Coconut milk is less sweet and thin, isn't it? I would think that you could substitute, but how or if it would change the taste/texture, I don't know. Maybe someone else could answer this question. Is there a specific reason that you would want to use the milk instead, or is it just what you happen to have??

Add them to your HOSTS file.
I'm running slack 9.0beta on a home network. There are 4 PC's, and all are connected to an 8 port switch, which is connected to a D-Link DSL 500 ADSL Modem/Router. We can all access the net fine, and all the windows users can access each other easily, but I can't seem to resolve their hostnames, and they can't resolve mine. I can ping their IP's, but their hostname just fails, and vice versa. I have absolutely no idea on whats causing it, and any help would be greatly appreciated as always.
Add them to your HOSTS file.
Thanks for that, I can now ping them by name, but they still can't get me by name. It's kinda frustrating as to access my webserver they have to use the IP, anyone have any other ideas on what it could be?
Add the same info to their host files?
Windows 95/98/M3 c:\windows\hosts
Windows NT/2000/XP Pro c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Windows XP Home c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
But it works fine when I'm in windows, and they see each other OK, so why me?
I am not sure, but that would be a workaround.
I would like to know a fix though, I mean a workaround is useful, but if we ever plug another PC in for games or something like that, it'll involve doing the workaround on theirs too, so if anyone knows a fix then I would be most happy
Individually, all of your boxes (NIX I may add) use the hosts file for DNS. For all other, a DNS server would be queried. So, to make life easier, if you have alot of machines, to keep from having to spend all day fixing minor changes in LAN topology on EVERY machine, you could setup BIND and have all of the machines use that as a internal DNS.
The thing is that I was running mandrake before I put slack on and it worked fine, and before that I was using LFS which worked fine, I'm leaning towards a bug in slack9.0beta, cause I've never had this happen before and its specific to this distro, can anyone else confirm/deny my suspicions?

COLTON For the first time in more than four decades, the town will be performing reassessments on all of its properties.
To help ease the process and educate all of the property owners in the area, the town will hold three public information sessions.
The first meeting is set for 1 p.m. Oct. 10 at the South Colton Community Center, and there will be a 7 p.m. session the same day in the Colton-Pierrepont Central School cafeteria.
The final information session will be at 1 p.m. Oct. 12 in the school cafeteria.
The reason we are doing the times that they are is were hoping to draw more seniors. Were also hoping to get the people who work during the day to come to the night session and also some out-of-towners. It doesnt have to work out that way, though. Thats just what we were thinking, town Assessor Tina M. Miller said. It will be the same session each time, so it is only necessary to attend one session.
The town assessors office sent letters to all property owners in September breaking down the situation.
The reassessment will include an inspection of each property, from the public right-of-way, or a physical inspection of the property (if necessary) and placing a fair and equitable market value (assessment) on each property. The purpose of the assessment program is to ensure that all properties in the town of Colton are assessed on a consistent, fair and equitable basis, the letter said.
The data collection and evaluation process will be conducted by KLW Municipal Inc., Buffalo.
KLW also plans to have a representative at the public information sessions.
Theyre going to describe in detail what theyll be doing, the processes between data collecting, what (the public) can expect as far as paperwork. There will be a question-and-answer portion as well, Ms. Miller said. I expect to have at most of the meetings a representative from (St. Lawrence) Real Property in Canton. I think he can get to two of them. There will also be a representative from Colton-Pierrepont Central School.
According to the letter, KLW staff members began their work in mid-September by collecting demographic information on each property by attempting to inspect each parcel and its improvements. The field work in the property revaluations is scheduled to continue through July.
I would say that the actual inspections of properties will begin immediately after the public information sessions conclude, Ms. Miller said. We will be talking about getting transportation for people who cant get here themselves.
Those with questions are directed to call Ms. Millers office at 262-2848.

I am very pleased with the quality of this tie. It came quickly and it is easy to tie. On occasion, I find a tie is difficult to tie or stay, but this forms nicely for me and stays put. It is white, so it is worn less often than others, but seems to be holding up well.

Either way, that MsMpEng.exe is Windows Defender. It is possible that it is scanning when your CPU hits 100%. Since you already have MBAM and Avast, check if Windows Defender is indeed turned off.

Yeah that's a good point I had the same problem with Zonealarm free edition it would use 100% of my memory I removed it and bam perfect smooth playing again.
Yea windows defender is turned off and my tempeture stays at 50c while playing ghosts so i dont think its anything to do with that anything else it could be?
Well... keep an eye out on your CPU-load through task manager.
If it's lagging and not on 100% there's a chance your HDD cannot keep up. The only real safe way to fix that is to get another one. :/
This honestly just sounds like a dust problem, computer has to much dust in heatsinks of GPU and CPU causing the computer to strain and run extremely hot, open the case up and see what your looking at for dust if there is any clean it up give it a run.
Well I cleaned it out a couple months ago idk how to properly clean it out tho it did help but not for very long maybe ill try it again should i get some compressed air and clean it out that way? I know im really lacking on computer knowledge for someone who built one lol
You can have someone assist you or something when cleaning it. You might do something to it that you're not supposed to. >_<
You might want to check your HDD as well...I don't know, maybe its transfer rate is getting lower?
Move your case outside of the room it usually is in (also make sure it's fairly dustless).
Open your case and remove dust filters if you have them.
Spray that everything where there's dust. Let the fans on your CPU and GPU spin very fast as well using your compressed air.
Close it up and put it back.
This is normally written on the can but it can't hurt to repeat: keep the can straight. If you hold it at an angle, it'll create condensation which you don't want to have. (though this is mainly for when it's turned on)
Either way, I doubt this is dust. His temps are normal and you'd need to have your PC stored in an industrial environment to get it that far. That or pack 3-4 packs of cigarettes each day in front of your PC.
The games you play set them to very low or as low as you can. Play for as long as possible and see if you notice any slowdown. If nothing, it's likely that some part of your computer is faulty or out of shape. As for MsMp, it's an antivirus thing that's common.

My high school was a small public school, so we didn't have much of a choice in classes, only the core classes for each subject every year and then we could choose one art or technology class. Junior and senior year of high school we got to pick between the regular core classes or taking higher levels of the basic courses, but they counted as college credits through the local college.
GCSE is the standard UK grading system - we all take our GCSE's (Or "O" levels in the case of Warhead - I think) at the age of 16 when we finish school.
School in the UK is odd compared to the US system - so I'll just give you a brief.
We can start as young as 2 with Nursery - which is the equivalent of you're Kindergarden (which If I remember right, starts at 7)
That continues up until junior school - which starts at age 5 - and then continues up until the age of 11, these years in the school system are known as "Years" One through six respectively.
After that - You move up to secondary school - which I think is the equivalent of you're High school - and thats from age 11 to 16. During this time - for the first three years (up until whats known as Year nine - yep they continue counting up) all students take standard course modules, english, maths, science, the works - and for the last two, we pick our own modules, In my case - Art and Design, Design Technology and Double Science (which is double the work of regular science for double the grade - take a wild guess at triple science ) and we take standardised examinations in every subject at the end of this period, aged 16. These exams are known as "GCSE's"
After this, things get fuzzy - you can either
- Continue into a "Sixth form" which is basically another two years of school.
- Continue into "College" which you can carry on with right up until you're 21 - and in some cases, even older - and is a more subject centric system, usually focusing on two to four "Core" classes a week in you're chosen subject.
- Go directly into work.
At any point, after the age of 18 however, you can continue into University - which is the equivalent (of you're fuzzy terms) of college - a major educational institution which the students live in (in halls or dorms) for three years while working acedemially on a degree - and after that we can choose to either move into work, or continue onto a Masters degree (with another two years of learning, and a major skill under you're belt) and then into work - or onto a PHD - which would effectively make you a "Doctor" in the subject (not an actual medical doctor though - unless you took medicine as your educational path! ).
Long story short - we start earlier than most americans, we learn more intensively and with greater speed than most americans - and are classed as adults in the eyes of the law before most americans. Not to say that either system is right or wrong - But If I was in the american system - I would only have half of my qualifications that I have right now, and would be widely regarded as a college bum because I keep returning to education.

Genu varum, Tibia vara, Blount's disease
Introduction to bowlegs:
When your baby starts toddling about, it's normal for the legs to curve outward at the knees. Parents are often concerned, especially if there are adults in the family who are bowlegged or who needed splints or braces while growing. Most of these bowlegs are normal, although a select few do require treatment.
What is bowlegs?
The tight fit inside the uterus leads to bowing of the legs that parents often do not notice until the child starts to stand and walk. Most children between one and two are quite bowlegged. This normal developmental pattern is called physiologic genu varum. ('Genu' means 'knee.')
The second most common cause of bowlegs is called Blount's disease, or tibia vara. In this uncommon condition, one side of the leg bone ('tibia') grows abnormally.
In some rare cases, children can have bowlegs from other conditions such as vitamin deficiency (rickets), arthritis, trauma, infection, tumors, or bone diseases.
Who gets bowlegs?
Physiologic bowlegs are present at some point in most children, especially up to age 2.
Blount's disease can occur in babies, school-age children, and teens. It is most common among the very obese and in those of African-American descent.
What are the symptoms of bowlegs?
Normal bowlegs improve over time. As it corrects, some children with bowlegs then go through a period of"genu valgum" or "knock-knees" before their legs finally straighten fully. When bowlegs get worse after age 2 they should be evaluated. The same is true if the bowing is extreme, if only one side is affected, or if the child is otherwise not growing normally.
Is bowlegs contagious?
How long does bowlegs last?
Physiologic bowlegs improve greatly by age 2. They can continue to improve for years later. Over 95 percent of those with physiologic bowlegs – even severe physiologic bowlegs – will become normal by adolescence with no treatment.
How is bowlegs diagnosed?
The shape of the legs changes slowly throughout childhood. They should be followed closely at each routine physical exam. If there is reason for concern, some type of x-ray or MRI evaluation is usually the next step.
How is bowlegs treated?
Physiologic bowlegs generally need no treatment at all. In fact, the braces, corrective shoes, and exercises that used to be common can hinder normal straightening of the legs.
Blount's disease usually does require treatment. Here braces may be helpful, but surgery is often necessary.
With other types of bowlegs, identifying and addressing the underlying cause is the first step.
Surgery might be used in a variety of situations if treatment is needed.
How can bowlegs be prevented?
Anything that decreases space in the uterus (twins, large babies, maternal diabetes) can make bowlegs more pronounced. Obesity in children can lead to greater bowing of the legs. Maintaining normal weight and getting plenty of calcium and vitamin D is wise.
Physiologic bowing is a normal part of development and should not be entirely prevented.

On Tuesday evening, the Borger Lady Bulldogs wrapped up their 2011-12 season with a 40-15 loss to the Perryton Rangerettes at Tex Hanna Gym.
Seniors Holly Jones, Vanessa Jones, and DevAnn Jackson took to the court for the last time as Lady Bulldogs with the trio combining for six rebounds and two points in the game.
The Lady Bulldogs opened the game playing the district leading Rangerettes tough with freshman Tiffanie Prater hitting a three pointer while Emma Wood did a good job near the basket.
The Lady Bulldogs struggled to get much offense going in the second period, but solid defense kept them in striking distance with a halftime score of 9-18.
As the third period got underway, the Rangerettes started to get into a groove by outscoring the Lady Bulldogs 12-3 to take a commanding lead into the fourth period.
The Lady Bulldogs wrap up the season with a 4-23 record. But the future looks bright for the varsity team as eight players are expected to return for the team next season, along with a solid group of junior varsity and freshmen players coming up the pipeline.

PAWTUCKET ŌĆō Nobody wants to play extra innings on a day at McCoy Stadium that began with the stands filled with elementary and middle school students hailing from this city and concluded with a small group of diehard supporters.
Tuesday was also getaway day for the Columbus Clippers, a club that certainly wanted to hop on a plane and fly back home to Ohio after partaking in an eight-game, two-city road trip. The PawSox players wanted to finish the game, too, and enjoy a rare night off that would be followed by an even rarer day away from the ballpark.
Instead, the two teams hooked up for a 15-inning encounter that consumed four hours and 38 minutes of their lives. Columbus went home happy, earning a 6-5 win thanks to Cord PhelpsŌĆÖ sacrifice fly in the final frame of the longest game at McCoy since May 12, 2011.
Pawtucket infielder Drew Sutton took the loss in what was his first pitching appearance since high school. The player with the ŌĆ£good soldierŌĆØ sticker on his backside actually acquitted himself quite nicely, working two innings that featured two strikeouts, no walks and 28 pitches, 17 of which were strikes.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs not a good feeling. Your No. 1 thought is that you hope heŌĆÖs healthy. You donŌĆÖt want someone to go out there in a position where they could get hurt,ŌĆØ cautioned PawSox manager Gary DiSarcina when the postgame media session veered away from more pertinent topics such as Jose Iglesias exiting the game with a bruised right forearm and pitching prospect Rubby De La Rosa tossing three sterling innings.
ŌĆ£Usually you let (position players) go two innings and see how they feel,ŌĆØ DiSarcina continued. ŌĆ£DrewŌĆÖs going to be sore (Wednesday). ItŌĆÖs a different motion and theyŌĆÖre on the hill.ŌĆØ
What would have DiSarcina done had the game moved into the 16th inning?
ŌĆ£No clue,ŌĆØ he responded. ŌĆ£You just kind of go down the line and see whoŌĆÖs up. IŌĆÖm sure (Brandon) Snyder or (Jonathan) Diaz would love to have done it ŌĆ" we would have gotten someone out there.ŌĆØ
The long contest did not diminish DiSarcinaŌĆÖs recollection of De La Rosa, who turned in his second consecutive scoreless appearance. The 24-year-old struck out the side in the first inning, two coming on mid 90s fastballs. De La Rosa wound up with five strikeouts as part of his 44-pitch stint.
De La Rosa has been under a stringent pitch count in the seasonŌĆÖs first month, one thatŌĆÖs been capped at or around 50 pitches. DiSarcina seemed receptive to the idea that perhaps the time has come to increase the right-handerŌĆÖs workload.
ŌĆ£That was his best outing,ŌĆØ said DiSarcina. ŌĆ£Sitting next to (pitching coach) Rich (Sauveur) and (minor-league pitching coordinator) Ralph (Treuel), his demeanor on the mound was much different. He was aggressive and really looked ready to pitch.
ŌĆ£That was a glimpse of what we can see in the future once we get him going,ŌĆØ he added. ŌĆ£Big step for him, I think.ŌĆØ
IglesiasŌĆÖ injury status came as the result of getting hit by a pitch in the first inning. He stole a base and scored PawtucketŌĆÖs first run before adding a nice defensive play to end the sixth inning. When the seventh came around, Diaz was patrolling shortstop.
ŌĆ£I assume heŌĆÖs hurting,ŌĆØ said DiSarcina about Iglesias, who was seen sporting a red sleeve on his forearm while moving about the clubhouse.
The win enabled the Clippers to earn a split of the four-game series. The visitors tied the game in the top of the ninth against Chris Carpenter, who began the inning with back-to-back walks.
Bryce Brentz homered for the third straight day, a two-run shot that at the time gave the home team a 4-0 lead. Playing in his first game in three days, Jackie Bradley Jr. went 3-for-5 with one run and one RBI. Serving as PawtucketŌĆÖs DH, Bradley doubled with one down in the 14th but ended up stranded.
Alfredo Aceves came across as a caring and team-first guy Tuesday when asked about his expectations leading up to his first pitching assignment with the PawSox on Thursday night.
ŌĆ£I want to contribute where I am right now. Obviously I want to have a good outing; thatŌĆÖs all I want,ŌĆØ Aceves expressed. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs very important for us to shut them down, score some runs and win the ball game.ŌĆØ
ItŌĆÖs hard to believe that such a response is from the same guy who just last week was throwing his ex-big league teammates under the proverbial bus. To go from combustible to accepting in a weekŌĆÖs time is a turn of events the Red Sox undoubtedly had in mind while trying to figure out where to slot Aceves in PawtucketŌĆÖs rotation.
Thursday will mark AcevesŌĆÖ first appearance in nine days.
ŌĆ£(The built-in break) gives you a little rest on your arm,ŌĆØ said Aceves, who started two games with the PawSox during the 2011 season. ŌĆ£Pawtucket is a good city and I like it. Here is where I want to be.ŌĆØ
Aceves views his current PawSox status as a ŌĆ£good thingŌĆØ in the sense that he has a chance to restore the Red SoxŌĆÖ faith and trust in him. He then paused for a second before remarking, ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm looking to get back to the big leagues. Why not?ŌĆØ
DiSarcina was asked if the retirement of infielder Jon Hee brought back any memories. In 2002, DiSarcina went into then-Pawtucket manager Buddy BaileyŌĆÖs office to announce that he was calling it a career.
ŌĆ£We started talking about it when we were in Rochester [April 19-22]. He came in and was emotional and we ended up talking for an hour,ŌĆØ shared the manager. ŌĆ£When we got back here, I saw him wandering around the clubhouse and I was like ŌĆśCome on, letŌĆÖs talk.ŌĆÖ
ŌĆ£It brought back memories, though for two entirely different reasons why,ŌĆØ he added. ŌĆ£He lost his passion to play probably just because he kind of reached his peak. I was struggling with my health and thatŌĆÖs why I retired.ŌĆØ
Hee boarded a plane for his native Hawaii on Tuesday morning. He took a picture with the lineup card from Monday nightŌĆÖs game before packing his belongings in a duffle bag. The 27-year-old appeared in 64 games for the 2012 PawSox, batting .253 with two homers and 21 RBI. His 2013 output consisted of two games ŌĆō none coming after the season-opening series in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ŌĆō and four at-bats.
ŌĆ£He took the last few days to say goodbye to his teammates and to thank them,ŌĆØ said DiSarcina.
The nature of the injury sustained by New York Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli is one thatŌĆÖs ŌĆ£avoidableŌĆØ in the eyes of Pawtucket backstop Ryan Lavarnway. Cervelli paid a steep price for exposing his right hand last Friday when TorontoŌĆÖs Rajai Davis fouled a pitch that resulted in the former undergoing surgery the following day.
On a related note, Lavarnway mentioned that he had two catcherŌĆÖs interference calls last season, both with Pawtucket and both coming with former big leaguer Hideki Matsui in the box.
ŌĆ£In the majors, they have reports on who those guys are, so you know to stay back,ŌĆØ said Lavarnway. ŌĆ£Beyond that, you shouldnŌĆÖt be getting close enough to get hit.ŌĆØ
EXTRA BASES: Mitch Maier (left wrist sprain) is making strides according to DiSarcina, though the outfielder remains unlikely to come off the disabled list any time soon. ŌĆ" Outfielder Jeremy Hazelbaker returned to the lineup Tuesday after missing the previous three games with a sprained wrist. He went 1-for-6 with four strikeouts. ŌĆ" The comeback attempt of Alex Hassan (calf) has taken the outfielder to Fort Myers, which to DiSarcina is a positive development. Hassan has yet to play a game this season. ŌĆ" Pawtucket will enjoy its first day off the season Wednesday before getting back to work at McCoy with the first of four games against Durham.

FASB amends accounting for repos-to-maturity and repurchase financings. New disclosures required for many transactions.
On June 12, 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures (the "new standard"). The new standard amends the accounting guidance for "repo-to-maturity" transactions and repurchase agreements executed as repurchase financings. In addition, the new standard requires a transferor to disclose more information about certain transactions, including those in which it retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic returns of the underlying transferred asset over the transaction's term.
Changes in accounting
As a result of the new accounting guidance:
Enhanced footnote disclosures: repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions
For repurchase agreements and securities lending agreements accounted for as secured borrowings as of a reporting date, the new standard requires obligors (transferors of collateral) to:
Enhanced footnote disclosures: certain transfers of financial assets
The new standard also requires additional disclosures by transferors for transactions that involve a transfer of a financial asset reported as a sale and accompanied by an agreement that results in the transferor retaining substantially all of the exposure to the economic returns of the transferred asset during the transaction's term.
In these circumstances, the transferor is required to provide the following information, by type of transaction (e.g., repurchase agreement, or a sale accompanied by a total return swap) outstanding at the reporting date:
The transferor is also required to provide information about its ongoing exposure to the economic return on the transferred assets, including a description of the arrangements and the risks associated with those arrangements.
The new standard applies to all companies that finance their activities through repurchase agreements and engage in securities lending activities. Although the new standard makes only targeted changes to the accounting model for these transactions, transferors of collateral under these arrangements will be required to disclose more information about these and similar transactions.
Companies that frequently finance their acquisition of financial assets through contemporaneous repurchase agreements with the same counterparty may be significantly affected by the new accounting requirements. In addition, companies that engage in repo-to-maturity transactions will now need to report them as secured borrowing arrangements.
With one exception, public business entities are required to apply the accounting changes and comply with the enhanced disclosure requirements for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2014. However, for repurchase and securities lending transactions reported as secured borrowings, the new standard's enhanced disclosures are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. A public business entity may not early adopt the standard's provisions.
For all other entities, both the accounting and disclosure provisions are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. These entities may elect to early adopt the new accounting standards for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014.
In all cases, an entity must report changes in accounting for transactions outstanding on the effective date as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new disclosures are not required for comparative periods prior to the effective date.
