CUMBERLAND – Wrestling season inside the state of Rhode Island doesn't really get serious until the middle of January. A few of the top teams use the first six weeks of the season to test themselves outside the state in weekend tournaments against elite competition from around New England.
That's the route Cumberland High coach Steve Gordon has chosen over the years. This season, his defending state champions have won tournaments in Connecticut and Massachusetts before finishing third last Saturday in the prestigious Redskin Invitational up in Sanford, Maine.
This Saturday, the Clippers host their annual invitational tournament, now called the John D. Gorman Memorial.
"We have two top 10 Connecticut schools coming in," Gordon said. "South Windsor and Bristol are both very good. South Windsor had four individual champions at our tournament last year. We also are bringing in the East Longmeadow, Mass. team that we saw up in Holyoke. And Weymouth is ranked among the top 10 in Massachusetts. North Attleboro always has a few good individuals, too."
Durfee High of Fall River is coming for the first time. Rhode Island schools entered include Ponaganset, North Providence and Burrillville.
Gordon expects his Clippers to contend for the team championship.
"I think we're pretty good," the coach said. "We're picking up the pace as we finish our tournament season. We only have one outside tournament left. Next month, we will wrestle the top teams in Rhode Island – Bishop Hendricken, Cranston West and Warwick Veterans.
"I'm getting a little nervous," Gordon said when asked about the battle for the team championship that will highlight the state tournament at the end of February. "Warwick Vets is loaded from top to bottom, led by three-time state champion Mike Myers. Bishop Hendricken is a team everybody should watch. They are very well-balanced this year. Cranston West is always strong. And then there is our team. We're going to be in the fight."
Cumberland barely held off Warwick Veterans to win the 2010 state team title. The Clippers graduated one state champion, Cameron Glad, and a former state champion, Jaron Parent, who lost to Myers last year in the 125-pound title match. The team also lost captain Ricky McCoy, who finished third at 152 pounds.
Of course, Cumberland did not lose its twin tandem of Shaidai and Shoneil Lariviere, each two-time state champions by the end of their junior year who will both be seeking their third crowns next month.
"Those two make everyone in our wrestling room better," Gordon admitted. "Anyone who wrestles with the twins is either going to get better or quit the team."
One shining example of this theory is sophomore Erik Travers, who contended for the state title as a freshman last year at 103 pounds, then moved up four weight classes to 130 pounds this season.
"Erik is around 5 foot, 6 inches," Gordon said. "He just naturally grew into 130 pounds this year. He is a hard worker, very focused, who has been doing some power lifting to increase his strength. Several of our wrestlers are working out at a power lifting gym in Central Falls."
Travers has also gained valuable experience wrestling with the Northeast Elite program based in Woonsocket and run by Bob Gibbons.
Saturday's tournament will begin at 9 a.m. inside The Wellness Center, a bright and shiny facility that features room for four mats.
"When we started this tournament more than 20 years ago," Gordon recalled, "we had just eight teams because we could only fit two mats in the old gym. Then we bumped the tournament up to 10 and then 12 teams. Now we have 17 teams wrestling on four mats."
The tournament runs throughout the day on Saturday, with semifinals early in the afternoon followed by wrestle-backs and then the individual finals at around 5:30 or 6 p.m.
The Clippers return to action quickly with a quadrangular meet at Burrillville High next Monday morning on Martin Luther King Day, a school holiday. Looking ahead, the Clippers visit Cranston West on Feb. 3, visit Hendricken on Feb. 9, and conclude their dual-meet season at home on Feb. 16 against Warwick Veterans.
Gordon noted that Myers, who lost only one match in his first three high school seasons, was beaten last Saturday in the finals of the Lowell, Mass. tournament. Myers is a two-time New England champion and one of the greatest wrestlers in Rhode Island high school history. He is wrestling at 130 pounds this season.
"That tournament is a real meat-grinder," Gordon said, speaking to the caliber of competition in the Lowell event.
Saturday's tournament in Cumberland might not be a meat-grinder but it will whet the appetites of wrestling fans who can't wait for this season to enter its crucial stage three weeks down the road.

|Check out our other channels »
UK internet radio stations are subject to licensing for performance and publishing royalties in much the same way as terrestrial (FM) radio.
The costs for these licenses are based on the number of listeners and podcast downloads, and as such have increased as the station has grown. This is coupled with the increasing bandwidth costs from the additional podcast and website traffic. However, the amount of income that the station generates does not increase proportionally with this, as this is mainly from DJ subscriptions, and the number of DJs we can schedule is finite.
Unfortunately this has now reached a point where it's unsustainable with the current revenue model, and we have had to make some urgent changes in order to avoid having to close the station down completely.
After much discussion, we have made the difficult decision to take this channel off air. We are required to have a separate license for each channel, therefore each individual channel needs to be able to stand on it's own merit and generate enough income to cover it's licensing costs, without relying on the other channels. This is simply no longer the case for any of the channels other than Deep & Soulful, which is still the heart of SSRadio. We appreciate that this is short notice, but our license renewals were due imminently and the station simply could not afford to renew them at the current rate.
If you've been enjoying SSRadio for many years and would like to help ensure we're here for many more, why not consider signing up for a donation subscription? Just €5/month (approx. $6.60/£4.40) goes a long way to helping us cover our ever-increasing bandwidth and running costs.
We hope, like us, you can all look at this as just a temporary glitch on the journey towards greatness, and we are, as always, humbled by your continued support.

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has selected Fox Chase Cancer Center to receive an NCI grant for a Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer. The five-year grant is one of five awarded to NCI-designated comprehensive cancer centers to fund ovarian cancer research.
Fox Chase is the only center in Pennsylvania and the first of only two facilities on the entire East Coast to receive a SPORE grant for ovarian cancer. NCI has designed SPORE grants to support innovative, multidisciplinary research approaches that potentially may have an immediate impact on improving cancer care and prevention.
The grant funds Fox Chase research projects that focus on translating basic research findings from the laboratory to clinical settings. The goal of this "translational" research is to discover methods of earlier detection and improved prevention and treatments for this deadly disease.
Jeff Boyd, PhD, is principal investigator on this grant.
Despite recent treatment improvements, ovarian cancer remains the number one gynecologic killer in the United States. One reason is that it often produces few symptoms until the disease has advanced. The SPORE grant expands our research effort and combines clinical trials and laboratory studies.
According to the NCI, in the United States in 2008, an estimated 21,650 new cases of ovarian cancer were diagnosed and an estimated 15,520 deaths occurred as a result of ovarian cancer. It is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in women.More Information About Ovarian Cancer

Is it a myth or does it actually give you any benefit?
How to go about doing it?
THG covered those facets right in this article: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/sho ... ,2157.html
My first reaction to this article was... what a loss to see a good article topic with no proper tests. Nothing. I mean what the heck guys, can it get any easier? Just pick a file from one directory and copy it to another on the same partition and to another to show us if there was any performance change from short stroking and by how much. Who cares what number some application no customer installs or has a daily use of says about speed?
Run some applications that are disk limited like compression, game loads, encoding, PCMark HDD Suite, etc, show us what we will gain by using this method!
But sheesh, at least give us something that relates to reality. These guys sound just like the marketing teams. I'm sat here looking to see some file create, write and read tests of various sizes and I still have nothing.

The K&N filter increases the airflow and the intake tube smoothes that airflow into the engine. The result is more horsepower and torque, and better acceleration you can feel. Estimated Horsepower Gain 24.65 HP @ 6726 RPM. Replacement Filter # RP-5167. Use with Pre-Filter # RF-1037DK.

- Works with OEM computer system
- Includes the world's best air filter, the K&N filter
- Easy to install
- Street legal in all States
- Up to 100,000 miles between servicing
- Million Mile limited warranty
The K&N 57 Series Generation II Air Intake Kit improves intake airflow from the air filter all the way to the throttle body. The system starts with the world famous K&N high flow air filter. K&N uses the largest conical shaped air filter that will fit in the engine compartment. The large increase in filter area over the stock airbox filter results in a huge increase in airflow and a greater capacity to capture and hold dirt.
The filter is attached to a precision molded intake tube that connects the filter to the throttle body. The tube is precisely designed to reduce turbulence and accelerate airflow into the engine. The rotationally molded intake tube is made from interlaced high density Polyethylene, reducing intake air temperature from similar metal tubes. Intake air temperature is further reduced by a heat shield that isolates the filter from the engine compartment. The reduction in air intake temperatures results in a cooler, denser air intake charge and even more horsepower.
K&N uses a dynamometer to design its air intake kits to make the most horsepower possible. But their power figures aren't based on just one vehicle, but rather an average of runs by a number of vehicles. This means repeatable numbers and horsepower claims you can count on.
Every 57 Series Generation II Air Intake Kit comes complete with everything necessary for installation, including comprehensive installation instructions. All adapters are manufactured from high quality materials such as steel, aluminum, silicon or reinforced nylon, to ensure long life. The K&N filter can go up to 100,000 miles before cleaning is required. And the K&N air filter is guaranteed for one million miles.296.99Brand: K&N Part Number: 57-7001 UPC: 024844292247
K&N® is the inventor and leading innovator of reusable cotton gauze filter technology for automotive applications.

^Sorry, no idea.
I'm having a little trouble with getting wolfcam to display as I want it to:
seta r_visibleWindowWidth "1024" Display width
seta r_visibleWindowHeight "768" Display height
This makes the wolfcam window perfectly fit my moniter (no problem there).
seta r_customwidth "1280" Capture at width 1280
seta r_customheight "720" Capture at height 720
seta r_mode "-1" Allow the use of customwidth/height
This is the problem: When I open wolfcam, r_mode is 4... every time despite changing it. What is overwriting the r_mode -1 in my q3config.cfg?

Working alone isn't much fun, especially when you're trying to do the work of two. No one's around to hold the other end of the tape, support the other end of the board, or hand tools or materials up to the roof. And to top it all off, there's no one to visit with either.
We can't help you with the loneliness (get a dog), but we can offer some commonsense tips to make solo work as painless and productive as possible. The idea is to creatively use clamps, blocks, nails, sawhorses and scrap building materials in new, different ways. Once you start thinking like this, you'll be surprised at how much you can accomplish by yourself.
Lever posts out of the ground by wrapping a chain around the base of the post and slipping a long plank through the chain. Pry against a block resting on the ground to keep the lever from digging into the soil. Sometimes you'll have to excavate around the tops of stubborn concrete-embedded posts to remove some of the dirt trapping the top of the concrete.
Bring everything with you
When you have a job to do in an attic, in a crawlspace or on a roof, concentrate on assembling all the tools and materials you need to save trips back and forth to the truck or garage. For a roof repair, I'll pull up a 5-gal. bucket with the caulking gun, flashing, flat bar, roofing nails or whatever else I think the job requires. Undoubtedly I'll forget or need more of something, but at least I've saved a couple of trips down the ladder.
Listen for the music!
Find circuit breakers by plugging a loud radio into the outlet you're working on. You'll know you have the right circuit breaker when the music dies. But don't assume the electricity is off in all the other outlets or lights in the room. Before doing any wiring, plug the radio into other outlets you plan to work on. Some duplex outlets can have different circuits running to adjacent outlets. To be safe, test both the top and bottom with the radio. For lights, turn the light switch on and off to be sure.
Handle long, awkward pieces
The toughest solo jobs are holding up a full sheet of plywood, supporting the top row of drywall, and securing strips of siding or long boards in exactly the right position while you fasten them. Sometimes you can stick a clamp somewhere to support long boards, nail in a block directly below the work or even pound in a couple of nails to rest the two bottom corners of plywood sheathing while you fine-tune the placement and do the fastening.
Occasionally you'll need to place fasteners through finished surfaces, but don't sweat it. Nails leave relatively small, fixable holes and drywall screw holes are nearly invisible. These little insults are pretty tame compared with the mess you can have with a falling cabinet that you're trying to hold up while fastening!
Big, cumbersome cabinets are easy to hang alone if you first screw a level 1x4 through the wall into the studs at the right height. Then you can rest the cabinet while you fasten it to the wall. Holding 10-ft. gutter sections for fastening is a hassle. But support the far end with a clamp attached to the bottom of the fascia and it's painless.
Use pivot points and balance with long ladders
I bet more broken windows and injuries happen from raising, lowering and moving ladders around than actually using them. The longer the ladder, the harder it is to control. Here's how to handle the longest ladders alone.
Anchor the feet of extension ladders against the base of the building and "walk" the ladder up to raise it. The solid wall keeps the feet from kicking out as the ladder's raised. To lower ladders, move the feet back against the building and reverse the process.
Caution: Stay away from overhead power lines!
Snap chalk lines
Everyone knows how to pound in a nail to hold the end of a chalk line when they're alone, but what do you do on a basement floor? You use a brick to anchor it down, that's what. That's simple, but here's another trick that's a little tougher to master. When you have less-than- 4-ft. snaps and you don't want to fool with or damage the surface with a nail, learn how to snap lines by holding the handle on the chalk box with the line extended past the mark. Hold the line tight and tip the box down so you can pluck the line with your thumb and index finger.
Use balance and grip to haul heavy plywood
Lift sheet goods by placing one hand under the sheet, slightly in front of center, and your other hand at the top, slightly behind the center. Hoist it so that the middle of the sheet rests on the ball of your shoulder. Your shoulder and back handle the bulk of the weight while your hands only need to balance it. Bonus: You'll be able to see where you're going, thread through doorways and even navigate up and down stairs.
Wear a Well-Stocked Tool Apron to Double Your Work Speed
Since I gave up my career as a carpenter for this wimpy office job, I've gotten lazy about strapping on the tool belt. It's usually on the ground with tools, squares and pencils strewn all over the place. So I spend half my time looking for lost tools. Invariably I'll get a board just where I want it and find my hammer out of reach. (I think I'll start wearing my apron again this weekend.)
Tuck all your basic, most-used tools in just the right pouch, and always return them to the same resting place. Pretty soon, you won't even have to look before grabbing the tool you need. (Get used to this and you won't even open a can of chili without strapping it on.)
Use sturdy sawhorses
Working alone on ladders can be inefficient and dangerous, especially because you'll be tempted to overextend your reach and carry too many tools, paint cans, shingles or lumber when no one is on hand to pass you things. Nothing speeds up high, solo work like the spacious elevated work platform scaffolding provides. You'll be able to keep materials and tools at arm's length and safely reach a wide area without constantly moving ladders.
The scaffolding doesn't have to be anything fancy. When you have a job less than 10 ft. from the ground, set a couple of solid, crack-free, 2x12 boards (avoid large knots) over a pair of sturdy sawhorses for a platform you can move around on. Just make sure your setup is on even ground to keep the horses from collapsing, and avoid "walking the plank" by remembering that there are no safety rails. Keep plank ends close to sawhorses or they'll flip up when you step on the ends, like they do in slapstick movies (only it won't be nearly as funny in real life).
For higher jobs, like painting second- floor eaves or replacing windows or siding, go to the rental store and examine your scaffolding options. You can rent long, lightweight aluminum planks with various styles of jacks to support them and the same platform "section style" scaffolding you see the pros use on big construction sites. Tell the scaffolding supplier about the job you're planning to do and how high you'll be working to get help choosing the best scaffold. Most scaffolding can be carried in a pickup, but rental stores will deliver too. You'll forgive the cost when you see how your productivity increases.
Extend your saw table
It's not always easy to find a willing helper to hold up long boards when you're ripping on the table saw. Here's a setup that you can rig in just a few minutes.
Lay 2x4s perpendicular to sawhorses to support the lips of the saw table. Screw the 2x4s to the tops of the sawhorses. Lay a sheet of plywood directly behind the saw and lock it in place with 1-5/8-in. drywall screws.
Prestart nails and screws
How many times have you tried to hold a board or sheet of material in place and start a nail or screw? When hanging drywall, plywood or even a rim joist (the board that ties a whole bunch of joist ends together), mark the framing locations and tack a few fasteners in the material before hoisting it. Then you can hold it with one hand while driving in the fasteners.
Use a lever and fulcrum
Hang doors back onto hinges by levering the door into position with a 1x4 fulcrumed on a 3/4- in. block of wood. Line up the top hinge leaves, slip in the top hinge pin and then line up the other two leaves and drop in the other pins.

Hi everyone, I'm David a 20 y/o male. I'm the owner of a young APBT pup named Goliath whose about 10 weeks now.
I'm from Gainesville, FL where I've been my entire life. I work as a CphT in a local chain pharmacy.
Goliath will be my first dog related to the pit bull breeds. Before him came my childhood dog "Gus" a lab/chow mix who passed away at 15 years several years ago.
Goliath's hobbies include mainly chewing, jumping, and dumping. So far he's not a fan of walks that take him away from home. It's only when we turn around to head back to the front door he gets excited.

These are my new favorite gloves! Lightweight, comfortable, and surprisingly warm. They keep my fingers comfy down to the mid to low 40s. Don't get hot as the temps warm up. Natural fibers rock! Very glad I ordered a pair of these. Great quality, nice fit.

French Lick Resort
Editor's Review
From Indianapolis, a 2-1/2-hour drive over rolling, curving two-lane roads through farms and small towns brings you to the French Lick Resort. But the drive in no way prepares you for the awe-inspiring sight that greets you. The century-old French Lick Resort is renowned for its enormous, ornate dome covering the West Baden Springs Hotel. The history-filled resort recently underwent a $500 million renovation, resulting in a beautiful, well-run, something-for-everyone -- although slightly pricey -- weekend destination. A free, 24-hour shuttle transports resort guests between its two hotels, three golf courses, two high-end spas, casino, horse stable, and indoor sports complex. All these activities means there really is something for everyone. We don't want to indulge in stereotypes, but the spas draw women for outings with friends. The casino, steakhouse, and top-rated golf courses appeal to men. And the bowling alley, swimming pools, indoor mini golf, and nearby water park attract families with children. For the livelier scene, stay at the French Lick Springs Hotel, where the casino and family-friendly activities are located. The West Baden Springs Hotel is for the more low-key, upscale guest. From $219.

BUFFALO, NY-- A local group that serves the blind is looking for some heroes.
For the last 25 years, the Niagara Frontier Radio Reading Service has been recording readings of newspapers, magazines and books, and broadcasting them on a service for the blind.
The problem they're having is they have been using old audio tape machines to record the broadcasts. While the machines may have served them well, it is time for an upgrade.
"I was writing a fundraising letter a couple of weeks ago, and while I was writing the fundraising letter, three of our machines broke down," says Robert Sikorski, president of Niagara Frontier Radio Reading Service. "And it is brutal to find the parts and the people to fix the machines."
Sikorski is planning on replacing the old machines with new computers for digital recording and that would take a lot of money.
If you can help with a donation, call them at 716-821-5555.

A series of images uploaded by a software engineer and program manager with Motorola Mobility show what looks to be a DROID RAZR with HD design. The pictures show EXIF data specs for a "DROID RAZR HD" handset that runs Android 4.0.3 and has a camera equipped with a f/2.4 aperture camera.
Now the question becomes, is the DROID RAZR HD really the DROID Fighter that is expected soon on Verizon Wireless shelves? The leaked specs for a DROID RAZR HD come on the heels of an image of what is believed to be the DROID Fighter, an image that surfaced on a Chinese blog forum in March.
If the rumors are true, one of the most exciting features about this phone is the battery. The device is said to be equipped with the same monstrous 3,300 mAh battery used by the RAZR MAXX. This design may also be the appearance of the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
Get powered up for work, life and play easily and conveniently with desktop chargers, wall chargers and car chargers. Get all the power and energy you need for the mobile lifestyle.
The image don't show Android navigation buttons found on earlier RAZR models, so this may indicate that the handset uses the on-screen buttons found in the Ice Cream Sandwich. Add on a 4.6-inch high-definition display, and this phone is sweet.

Comments about Perri's 2.5" Tattoo Johnny Guitar Strap:
I immediately had to have this strap after I saw the graphics on it....skulls and dice...how could one go wrong with that motif,right? I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived as the strap is actually wider than it appears in photos, and that gives it a larger surface for those graphics to pop. The strap has a kind of felt backing which goes a long way toward keeping my bass in place when I'm playing. All in all, I'm very happy with this product and can't wait to get some more for my other guitars.

For tight turns it has a short radius, as well as a Race Rocker with a slight early rise and a pronounced camber for strong edge grip without unwanted edge-catching on hard pack. Ultra-quick and precise, with perfect handling: you'd better be ready to race.
Doubledeck 3.0 innovations include a new freegliding upper deck to better absorb shocks and increase stability. We've made the connectors softer at the front to make turn initiation even quicker, and stiffer at the back for killer acceleration.
Redster features the first ever RAMP Tech. Turning at top speed, RAMP Tech automatically lifts your heel by increasing the ramp angle by up to 10°. This pushes your bodyweight forward over the center of your ski, allowing you to maintain your momentum and carve precise turns on hard groomed slopes with less power and more control.
Redster now features a Tapered Sidewall. Thicker towards the rear of the lower ski, it gives more support for acceleration.

Anyone who wants to generally monologue can find their way to the "World of Other Stuff" or "Rant, Rave, & Misbehave" section. There are several ongoing threads which are ideal for such themes.
As far as validifying/apologetics of Pastafarianism to others, I can think of a few general approaches:
Point out that religion should be FUN. It should connect people socially, emotionally, and in ideas. It should help people learn how to live in peace with the world. It helps if the religion has some scheduled/cyclical observances or holidays to help people rejuvenate their love of life and peaceful growth, encouraging members to continue their life-path. If some other religion does not meet these standards, then clearly it is inferior, but CotFSM meets them all. (The FUN clause is important, for it was common in almost all ancient religions and largely absent from many modern ones.)
Alternatively, you could invite them into the forums to browse and see what is really here. If they won't even do that, they aren't serious about knowing the truth, so there's no point in wasting your time on them. Many great social and spiritual issues are discussed here, in our grand cathedral of the internet, which members can access any time they sign on for personal support and interaction around the world, without an appointment. This is inherently superior to a single or limited buildings that are only available in limited timespace events.
If someone is looking for meaty dialogue, let them check out the "Serious Discussion" section, but genuine spiritual/religious stuff comes up all over the forum. For example, I just posted a 4-part metaphorical analysis of the Aspects of FSM in the "Indocrinating Children" thread that might be of interest to someone looking for ways to see FSM as a means of contemplating reality. Most importantly, our dialogues do not represent official dogma, so they can be taken as they are useful and meaningful to each individual without requiring wars or genocides to enforce them. This is an element of a superior religion, that it can grow with each person and generation instead of stagnating in some long-past century. Other "major" religions would do well to learn from us.
I think the more important question is: "How can other major religions validate themselves in light of the living traditions and advantages of Pastafarianism?"

The pals (here lunching at West Hollywood's Chateau Marmont last month) have a lot in common, says Tequila. "People may think we are so different, but she is a Scorpio and I'm a Scorpio, and we have very strong opinions about things," Tequila told Us at Bravo's A-List Awards.
