Chance Bushman & The Smokin' Time Five Nov. 20, 2013
Upcoming New Orleans Events
Chance Bushman & The Smokin' Time Five Nov. 20, 2013
Wednesday, November 20, 2013 8:30 PM
Carousel Bar & Lounge at the Hotel Monteleone
214 Royal Street
New Orleans, LA 70130
The Smoking Time Jazz Club is for fans of the classic New Orleans sound, and will be greatly enjoyed by fans of Meschiya Lake & the Little Big Horns. Speaking of those Little Big Horns, drummer Mike Voelker plays with both groups, and the other band members are also in on the New Orleans musical hustle– if you haven't caught Smoking Time yet, you may recognize their players from other stages around the city.
Their album "Oh Sister, Ain't That Hot!" features regulars Sarah Petersen (lead vocals), John Joyce (bass; The Jumbo Shrimp Jazz Band, formerly of The Morning 40oz. Federation), Colin Myers (trombone; The Jumbo Shrimp Jazz Band), Jimbino Vegan (clarinet; The Jazz Cannibals), and Jack Pritchett (trumpet; Los Po Boy Citos), plus guest player Aurora Nealand (Panorama, Royal Roses). The new CD was engineered by Earl Sciounioux and recorded at Piety Studios in the 9th Ward.
The Smoking Time Jazz Club landed in New Orleans after touring around the world by bicycle with the Cyclown Circus in over 45 countries for eight years. Their traveling menagerie included the jazz band, a circus, and an upright bass, plus nine clowns on tall bikes. "After all that," bass player John Joyce relates, "what else was there to do but stay here and soak up some culture from the New Orleans, the place where it all started?!"

I went to Google and searched for "ubuntu mp3", and found this as the first result:
Hi i have just installed ubuntu on my notebook. I am not able to figure out how to play mp3 files? can anybody help please???????
I went to Google and searched for "ubuntu mp3", and found this as the first result:
My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive.
Finally i am able to play MP3`s on Ubuntu. It is no big deal if you know how to do it. I am posting this so if anyone else needs to do this:
1> Download mp3 decoder from https://shop.fluendo.com/product_inf...g0pkii2jmh39p7 (It is free here).
2> It has all the instructions to be followed and make your linux a jukebox!!
Thank you for letting us know how to do this. I would have figured the universe repository would have turned something up, but looks like it's more of a pain. I guess more and more are adopting the idea of not giving MP3 support right out of the box. For instance, Redhat you have to use the livna repository to get RPMs to enable the ability.
arrogance breeds ignorance
Screaming Electron, Full of BSD Goodness
I have found that if you are looking for some hard to find info about Ubuntu or Kubuntu, head over to www.ubuntuguide.org
It has all sorts of tutorials on how to get certain things working, including MP3 playback and even DVD playback.

The United Way of Northern New York needs to restock food pantry shelves to help fill the bellies of students heading back to school.
The nonprofit organization is seeking community participation in its annual food drive in Jefferson County from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 13 in the parking lot of St. Anthonys Church at Arsenal Street and Bellew Avenue, and its drive in Lewis County from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sept. 14 at the county fairgrounds in Lowville.
The public should drive by there just to see what it looks like, Robert D. Gorman, United Way chief executive officer, said of the Jefferson County food drive. They can see what the need is because of the mountain of food.
Nineteen food pantries throughout Jefferson County and seven food pantries in Lewis County will benefit from their respective food drives. Additionally, two food pantries in St. Lawrence County also will benefit from the Jefferson County food drive. The United Way is working on establishing an inaugural food drive in St. Lawrence County this year.
Daniel N. Taylor, president and chief executive operator of the Lowville Food Pantry, said that pantry will take any food and personal hygiene items it can get. In the month of July alone, he said, the pantry served 211 families.
Items the pantry has run particularly low on are canned meats, spaghetti sauce and pasta.
Our pantry also accepts fresh fruits and vegetables, and local eggs from farmers, Mr. Taylor said.
Those items will not be collected at the United Way food drives. Common items accepted at the those include tuna, soup, spaghetti sauce, pork and beans, peanut butter and jelly, dried pasta, cereal, canned vegetables, canned fruit and boxed sides, such as macaroni and cheese and Hamburger Helper.
The success of both drives would not be possible without the support of sponsors. For example, Lewis County Opportunities and the Lewis County Chamber of Commerce support the Lewis County food drive. In Jefferson County, much support is provided by department heads through the county government office. Northern Federal Credit Union provides support to both food drives.
Michael W. Woods, the credit unions vice president of finance and operations and a United Way board member, said the credit union alone provides upwards of $7,000 worth of food to the Jefferson County food drive. That is made possible with an average of $5,000 in donations and purchasing the food at a discounted price through Hannaford Supermarket, Arsenal St.
One of the benefits of being a partner in the food drives, Mr. Woods said, is seeing how everyone comes together to help with one common cause.
Its a living example of how everyone doing their little bit makes it all work, he said.
Mr. Gorman said he doesnt know if anyone can top the credit unions support, but hes willing to wait and see about that.

Jacks shut out Chicago State
The South Dakota State men's tennis team shut out Chicago State 7-0 on Monday in Chicago.
SDSU won all but one match in its blanking of the Cougars.
In doubles, Chicago State won at the top spot, but the Jacks won at No. 2 and No. 3 to secure the team point.
Mateus Moreira and James Thorp won by one break of service versus Jean Paul Jones and Julian Chavez in the middle spot. Lucas Pereira and Henrique Pereira won in more convincing fashion, losing only one game versus Luis Ulloa and Rashley Yeremia at No. 3.
Singles play was more of the same, as SDSU won all six matches, four in straight sets.
Andrea Boglić split the first two sets with Sergiu Muresan at the top spot, both by a score of 6-3. In the third and decisive set, the two played a super tiebreaker due to a team decision already being reached, and Boglić outlasted Muresan 10-7.
Moreira also needed an additional set versus Mario Noboa at No. 2, but the two played a full third set because a team decision was not yet reached. Moreira battled back after a first-set loss to win both the second and third sets 6-3.
Parker Lawley, H. Pereira, Thorp and L. Pereira were all straight-set winners.
Lawley defeated Chavez 6-1, 6-3 at No. 3, while L. Pereira defeated Ulloa 6-4, 6-3 at No. 6.
H. Pereira and Thorp both won by the greatest margin of victory at No. 4 and No. 5, respectively. H. Pereira defeated Jones 6-1, 6-1, while Thorp defeated Yeremia by the same score.
SDSU upped its record to 7-10 overall. The Jacks return to the courts next Tuesday at North Dakota in its final non-conference meet of the season. Meet time is set for 1 p.m. in Grand Forks, N.D.

Nora Ephron returns with her first book since the astounding success of I Feel Bad About My Neck, taking a cold, hard, hilarious look at the past, the present, and the future, bemoaning the vicissitudes of modern life, and recalling with her signature clarity and wisdom everything she hasn't (yet) forgotten.
Even as she's listing "What I Won't Miss" and "What I Will Miss" - making the final tally - Ephron reaches back to recount falling hard for a way of life ("Journalism: A Love Story") and breaking up even harder with the men in her life ("The D Word"), a long-anticipated inheritance with entirely unanticipated results ("My Life as an Heiress"), and the evolution, a decade after she wrote and directed You've Got Mail, of her relationship with her in-box ("The Six Stages of E- mail"). All the while, she gives candid, charming voice to everything women who have reached a certain age have been thinking... but have rarely acknowledged.
Filled with insights and observations that instantly ring true - and could have come only from Nora Ephron - I Remember Nothing is a pure delight.
©2010 Nora Ephron (P)2010 Random House Audio
"Ha ha"
I am so tired of publishers claiming that a book is hilarious. This one is not hilarious, but is much more. Whenever I am exposed to Nora Ephron, I am entertained by the way her mind works and the way she can express life's nuances – sometimes saying just what I would have said if I were brilliant. I enjoy her juxtapositions: opinionated self-doubt, funny terror. I always gain a couple of insights into myself and the way people work. I really enjoyed this read. And, like I Hate My Neck, it seeds in just enough reality to make one's heart stop.
"A find line"
I highly recommend this audiobook. One of my favorite movies is the 1990 comedy, ???My Blue Heaven,??? screenplay by Nora Ephron, directed by Herbert Ross, and starring Steve Martin, Rick Moranis, and Joan Cusack. The title of this inspired movie was taken from the old Fats Domino song by the same name. You probably heard that Ephron died of leukemia on June 26. Her death at seventy-one surprised even her friends.
When a celebrity dies, friends, family, or acquaintances appear, saying obligatory positive things about the deceased. Who pays attention to obligatory utterances? It???s the body of work left behind that matters. Besides my favorite movie, Ephron wrote: When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, You???ve Got Mail, Julie and Julia, other movies, books, and even a play, which she considered her best writing. Still, a television interview of a friend and several columns by journalists who mentioned knowing her intrigued me, and created the impression that Ephron didn???t prepare people for her death. One columnist, who never writes a sentimental word, as far as I can tell, wrote about riding in a cab in Texas, the day after Ephron died. The cab driver swerved to avoid an accident, throwing the columnist into the back of the front seat, and she burst into tears, scaring the bejeebers out of the cab driver. The physical jolt released a flood of grief. What kind of woman is known for being a great friend adored by many, including hard-nosed journalists, but allots no time for saying good-bye? I was skeptical, and wanted to know more. Did I say I???m a psychologist?
Unfamiliar with Ephron???s essays and books, I decided to search for something to read, but picked an audio version of I Remember Nothing. Great decision on my part because Ephron reads it. The material is funny and the delivery is perfect. She discusses aging, family relationships, friendships, divorce, work, lists of things she liked and didn???t like, people (neither Tom Friedman nor Larry King come out ahead), successes and failures, food, and more.
Nora Ephron loved being a journalist and this book is a credit to the field. She mastered the art of including facts about flawed people, aren???t we all, that humanized them without ridicule. Her mother became an alcoholic when Ephron was fifteen. It???s so easy to trash a parent, and so not the thing to do. She tiptoed along a very fine line and captured the best and worst of her mother, with a detachment that allows the listener to hear without cringing. This book is devoid of bitterness and filled with insight. Her philosophy was ???get over it.??? Maybe this audio book was her way of saying good-bye.
I enjoyed every moment, and, because I also remember nothing, have had the pleasure of enjoying in over and over like it was the first time. Funny, self-deprecating, and full of sharply drawn remembrances of her remarkable career, as well as the back stories that make it seem like you've just had the most delightful chat with an old friend.
I really like Nora Ephron and was genuinely upset when she passed away.
Her writing style is so sharp and clever, but also poignant with a hint of sadness.
I listened to this as an Audible.com audio book narrated by the author which I really enjoyed. I think wherever possible the author should narrate, especially in cases of essays and memoirs, it just makes the experience more genuine and touching.
This was particularly touching as she discussed aging, disease, divorce and death and shared her thoughts on how they impacted her life and her self image. She still managed to make it fun though, which is something I love Nora for.
"Elegant (as always)"
Even when she is writing about mundane daily lie topics, Norah Ephron makes them more- more interesting, have more meaning and usually more fun. Maybe because her life has been so different from mine, I like being transported into Ms Ephron's day to day world.
"Wonderful read"
I love Nora Ephron. Particularly her musings on daily life. She makes me laugh and she makes me sad in a 'this is life' sort of way. Highly recommend.
"Must read"
Fact of life put in simple and funny words.
Touched on every stage of life
Exceeded expectation
I enjoyed listening to Nora's voice . Clear and never boring. I have favorite chapters .
"Essays to Enjoy"
Nora Ephron reads several of her essays. I laughed out loud during a few while quietly enjoying others. Her narration lacks expression, which sometimes added to the humor, sometimes was flat. She expressed herself beautifully and it was a worthwhile listen.
"A classic voice, great breadth of material"
I am a 33 year old business woman, and it was lovely to listen to stories of a pioneer career woman like Nora Ephron tell her tales of current and past conquests and misadventures.
Her intonation can be a little bizarre or redundant, but I always love hearing a writer read their own work. You believe the words more.
I enjoy Scandinavian mystery and crime authors like Asa Larsson, Helene Tursten, Jo Nesbo, Karin Fossum and Amaaldur Indridason just to name a few.
"A joy"
This is such a great listen for me. I have enjoyed this more times than I can think. I am looking forward to her other books being added to my library. I will miss Ms Ephron and am looking forward to many years of enjoying her sharing her life experience.
"Enhanced by Nora's voice"
I found this incredibly moving, written as it was just before Nora died. Her gravelly, ageing voice is full of wisdom and humour, and completely made this book for me. The topics range from forgetfulness to musings on how her life might have turned out differently. I found myself in tears at the end of one story about how she came to write When Harry Met Sally by failing to inherit a fortune. Nora may not have got he tidy sum, but we're all the richer for it. A must for anyone who loves memoir or the work of this great American writer.
The funny and wonderful story, My Life as an Heiress
Picking up on the cadences of the sentences, as spoken by the author.
It put a lump in my throat the whole way through. But in a joyous way.
"A memoir from a great cultural figure"
This is one of the best memoirs I've listened to.
It's so nice to hear this spoken by Norah Ephron herself. I wish there were more.
"Wit and punky advice from Nora"
Because this is spoken by Nora herself you really feel engulfed in her very funny company. I couldnt imagine reading this book now. I felt bereft when it ended and I found out she had passed away so this book is a one off.
This is a fun book to listen to, I was glad I bought it. I want to read or hear her other books.
"While I walk my dog!"
I took charge of my friend's dog while she (friend) went winter sporting, and consequently had dog-walking duties in the snow frosted park. While I loved watching her bounding and singularly failing to retrieve any of the sticks I pathetically lobbed for her, I found myself getting bored. Enter Nora Ephron's 'I Remember Nothing'. Problem solved. This is such a dry, funny treat for all of us that are entering the days of the silver surfers. I recognised, and shared, so many of her irritations and musings.It was a complete joy from start to finish. I couldn't even begin to list my favourite bits. I am now about to order her other writings from Amazon - a pity there aren't more on Audible to speed my walk round Greenwich Park! Recommended!
"Brilliant Stuff!"
i devoured this one in a sitting. Really very funny, wise and original. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a light bite sized listen!
"Loved it, wish there was more"
Wish there was more!
Why must I put 16 words in before you will submit my review? I loved it!
"Hiarious. Hilarious. Hilarious."
From start to finish Nora's words and her dry wit were spectacular! I hope I'm half as humourous and inciteful when I find my existential crisis in ageing!
"An absolute delight..."
I devoured this in one sitting, this was an absolute pleasure to listen to. More please Nora!

Hello PitbullForum! I joined because I'd like to connect to the PROPER Pitbull community, and I have high hopes this is the right place for me. I've been having a lot of trouble lately on the way people view and treat Pitbulls. Not only the worst case scenarios where people abuse their dogs or use them in fighting(this 'trend' is all-to-obviously horrid), but also people who cannot control their dogs and leave them chained outside, people who over-breed and consider 'blue-nose' and 'red-nose' (which yes, I've heard of the Old Family Red Nose. Which to my knowledge no longer exists) to be registered breeds. I know people who paid hundreds of dollars for a 'blue-nose' and got 'papers' with the dog. Are the papers just written in handwriting and say "This dog is registered in the kennel club that doesn't exist" I do not know. But I do know, that there are specific breeds seen as 'Pitbulls' that are actual registered breeds; American Pit Bull Terrier, Cane Corso, Preso Canario, Dogo Argentino, Staffordshire Terrier, American Bulldog, and more.
Which leads me to my next issue. I had people on a different forum (it was a general dog forum) that consistently corrected me if I addressed a dog as just a Pitbull and didn't say "APBT" (which I would have if the dog I was talking about was actually an American Pit Bull Terrier). These people, I think, have had only online education about Pitbulls and don't know much about the real world of Pits. The majority are combination dogs, which in literal terms they would be a mutt. But you look at the dog and say "that's a Pitbull". Usually the dogs have a long lineage of, let's say, their mother was somewhere down the line an APBT but also had some type of bulldog in her, while the father had some pointer in him that was also mixed with boxer or who knows... This trend happens over and over again between 'mutts' and other 'mutts' but they are all considered by the majority of people to be Pitbulls. Which can vary from big round heads and short 100 pound bodies to long faced, long legged 50 pound Pits. They come in every shape and every color that a dog can possibly be. But you still know a 'Pit mix' when you see one. And most everyone (besides maybe a dog show judge) will address the dog as a Pitbull and recognize it as one. With all the problems that surround the Pit as a whole, I think it's impossible to just try to say "Well... It's just a mutt of a mutt of a mutt of a mutt". Normal people in the street will not see your dog and think it's a mutt(which the majority of 'Pitbulls' are).
With THAT being said, I would like to move on to say I am a strong advocate for the happy 'it's christmas every day' Pits that we all know and love. Honestly, Pitbulls are my thing, but I love all Molosser dogs (they generally all are born with the same temperament, or at least very similar temperaments-more are calm than others, others are more hyper, but they're all very close in my opinion). And I'm sick of people taking Rottweilers, or their 'blue nosed Pit' (as they would call them) and chain them up outside all day everyday as if the dog is a lawn ornament. When all the dog wants to do, is be with people(unless it turned aggressive from being chained up for years on end) and please them. I had a personal experience that exact point I am trying to make...
One of my good friends (all though I do disagree with the way they handle this particular dog) has a Pitbull chained up outside all day everyday. I was over there recently for a bonfire, and I asked politely if I could go say hi to the chained up dog. His voice was hoarse from barking so much to get people's attention, but his tail was wagging and I could see my own dog's personality in him. When I asked, I made sure to also ask if he was aggressive (which I doubted before I even got an answer, but it's always important to ask when you're able). They told me "Oh no, he's not aggressive. He's just a big boy and gets excited and doesn't know he's so big." Which didn't bother me at all, because my own dog can be the same way. But when they said it, they hinted that they didn't really feel comfortable with me going up to him, so I obliged. I asked why he was chained up, and they told me he was a runner. But later on, they let him off his chain, and to my surprise... I found that the dog was actually listening to me better than his owners! I treated him as if he was my own dog, and firmly would call his name and tell him to come, and he would come-despite the fact his entire body was wagging in excitement. I told him firmly to sit, and he sat. His owner tried to get him to do the same things, and he completely blew her off. I was actually shocked. And to be honest, I think it all has to do with the way you present yourself to the dog. All dogs train differently, but I've noticed a HUGE trend with the 'it's christmas every day of my life' Pitbulls that can't control themselves because they're just too dang happy! Some people resort to severely beating the dog every time s/he gets excited(not my friend, just incase you were wondering) and eventually the dog is just too depressed and fearful to be excited anymore. Others seem to not have the 'balls' to control their rambunctious Pittie, and they let their dog walk all over them. Or they resort to the easy solutions like staying in a kennel constantly or being chained. I disagree with all of these forms of dealing with the dog. You HAVE to let that excited dog know YOU are his chief, his superior, his alpha. Not only so you don't have a dog walking all over you, but so when other people come into contact with your dog, your dog doesn't get put down because the excited pup jumped on them, and they took it as an assault. And from personal experience, what works best for me with these particular Pits, is you have to give tremendous amounts of praise when the dog does ANYTHING you want him to do; come to you, sit, stay, whatever. But when he does something wrong like jumping, you have to give a harsh yell and sometimes with the more bull-headed ones, a quick smack(not a PUNCH, not BEAT DOWN, not a harsh slap across the muzzle, but a quick 'hey, listen to me!' smack on his behind. But you obviously CANNOT do this with every dog, especially if they have an abusive history because it could seriously scare them and make them instantly fear you). And even then, I think the smacking can usually be avoided by just having a prong collar. For example, you're around someone the dog hasn't met and the dog is excited and wants to jump or pull you to get to the person; a quick correction with the prong collar (sometimes they'll ignore you at first and keep going, so you have to keep correcting with each 'pull' or 'jump' they give) and the dog will learn. He might stop that one specific time and stop doing it then, but I can almost guarantee you, that you'll have to reteach him that particular form of correction over and over again until he finally gets it. Just like teaching him a command. What works well for me, with the jumping, is correcting with the prong collar when they pull or try to jump on someone, and then as soon as they stop for that split second from the correction, command them to sit and then highly praise them.
I hope I haven't offended anyone, I just strongly strongly love Pitbulls, and I think it's SO important to fight this reputation and BSL they have, so that a dog isn't put down because his owner was either too abusive OR too lenient and let their dog do whatever he wants. Even if the dog isn't having aggressive behavior, like I said, 'outsiders' are idiots and you MUST assume that any stranger will find any excuse to have your dog put down(which is not always the case, but it's better to be safe than sorry) and will not differentiate aggression from excitement. People NEED to start taking proper care and control of their Pitbulls so that a precious soul isn't put down because others viewed the dogs actions differently than what you know to be true.
Also, I want to make sure that it is clear that when I was talking about correcting the dog, I was specifically talking about the 'christmas morning' 'excited' Pits. Particularly with the behind-smack. I don't want anyone to perceive that as me being abusive, and I also don't want anyone thinking "well my dog doesn't need that he's calm, submissive, or came from a terrible past-so who are you to say how to handle my dog." I'm also sure there are ways others have come up with to control these 'excited' dogs, and I don't deny that. I just feel that SOMETIMES it's necessary (and it usually works for me) because I think it's worse to have a dog put down because he's not under your control, just because you didn't want to enforce that you're the boss because you love your dog so much and don't want to 'hurt' him(and what I'm talking about, I really couldn't call that 'hurting' the dog, just getting his attention). I hope that anyone who reads this agrees at least to some degree, or knows where I'm coming from. I mean, sometimes you have to smack your child on the butt to get them to stop bad behavior. You don't slap them in the face or beat the crap out of them. That's abuse. It's not abuse if you just smack them on the butt to let them know you're not joking, and I think dogs respond to that a whole lot better than human children do.
Anyways, I hope you read all of this, and respond! Please do not attack me for my beliefs(I'm open to debate, just not heated aggressive-online debate), because I love Pits probably just as much as you do. My dog is my best friend in the world, and I couldn't live without him and I know he feels the same about me. We're inseparable and there's a bond there that's one-of-a-kind. A true man's best friend dynamic. And I want everyone to feel this way, and I REALLY want people to be more educated about how to handle their Pits, so we can collectively stop this terrible reputation that's destroying hundreds of Pitbulls (if not, thousands) each and every day.

Sterling Rope
7/16" 11mm HTP Static Rope (out-of-stock)
Out of Stock Product Number: 9243
The Sterling 7/16" 11mm HTP Static Rope is a multi-use rescue/rappel rope best used for hauling systems, high traffic expeditions, mountain rescue, military, industrial rope access, and swift-water rescue. Made with 100% polyester static and a 44 carrier kernmantle construction, this rope is beefy, durable and strong.
HTP, with its less than 1% stretch per 300-pound load, makes these activities far more time and effort efficient. HTP provides better UV resistance, which is critical for glacier travel, expeditions, and big walls where ropes are exposed to ultra-violet light (UV), for long periods of time. Lastly, it retains its suppleness and smooth handling far longer than traditional static ropes, even after repeated use. Since HTP Static is a naturally dry product, your ropes will always stay dry. This maintains performance, strength, and elongation characteristics.
** HTP ropes should never be used in situations where any potential for shock-loading (such as a fall) may occur. It will result in very high impact forces. In these situations, a nylon static or dynamic rope would be more appropriate.
Note: Tracer colors in the ropes may vary.
* This product does not qualify for shipping to all countries.
- A multi-use rescue/rappel rope
- 100% polyester static

Comments about Sterling Rope 7/16" 11mm HTP Static Rope:
I remember the days of trying to tie into or rap down or tie a knot into a static rope that was more like a steel cable. Not so with this rope. It is almost as supple as a dynamic rope of smaller diameter. Very easy to handle. I leading a group of beginners and we were using it for a top rope route. No problems tying in with a fig 8 follow through or running through an ATC.

AT&T customers have waited long enough and finally appear to have the chance to buy the Unlocked Palm Pre. The wait has been so long for these AT&T customers that the device is now actually called the Palm Pre Plus and the company Palm itself was bought out by HP. However, it now appears that this device will be available starting May 16th for most of the nation with continued planned rollouts expected in the weeks following until it is available nationwide. There was no mention from AT&T about a free 3G mobile hotspot capability like the one that was offered by Verizon but you will have free access to AT&T's network of 20,000+ fixed hotspots. The only piece of information that we need now is price AT&T plans on selling the Palm Pre for. This will be an interesting thing to note given the fact that Verizon Wireless recently announced they will be selling the same device for only $30 with a 2 year contract.
It has also been mentioned around the internet rumor mills that AT&T will be rolling out its 3G MicroCell from coast to coast on the same day. This announcement would make a lot of sense as this Palm Pre Unlocked device is expected to increase the amount of load on AT&T's network with the various web browsing and data using features included with this device. The main selling point of the Palm Pre is that it can also be used as a wireless networking device which will surely add a lot more traffic to AT&T's already strained 3G network. By releasing the 3G MicroCell product on the same day will hope to alleviate any potential problems that might occur from more users being the on AT&T's network with a web browsing friendly smartphone.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
Some students from the College of Eastern Utah are carrying around little pink pigs and collecting money in them.
It isn't a scam or a new way for poor students to beg. Those students are called the CEU ambassadors and they are for real.
"We recruit students to be our ambassadors when they get here," said Todd Olsen, director of admissions and scholarships. "Once they have done that they have kind of sold their soul to us for the two years they are here."
The student ambassadors are recruiters for the college; they give campus tours, spend time at high school college fair days and go out into their various communities to explain to potential students the benefits of attending the college.
"They can talk to them better than we can," said Olsen. "They speak the high school students language; they are going through what those kids will be going through."
This year there are over 20 ambassadors on the campus and they are on scholarships for doing so. But in many ways the commitment doesn't end when students graduate from CEU. Olsen says over the nine years the program has been in place, over 200 students have been in the ambassadors program.
"To this day many of them are still out there recruiting for the college, sending students here every year," he noted. "It's about legacy."
The pink pigs are a fund raising device for recruitment. They were originally used as a promotion for Eastern Utah Credit Union at their location and they then donated them to the college for the ambassadors use. Students carry them around and get people to donate their extra change. The money is deposited into an account to be used as an endowment fund and will eventually be used to fund two scholarships.
"We have a total of 10 pigs," said Olsen with a smile. "Six are presently in operation."
For colleges today, recruitment is one of the major obstacles they face in keeping their campus' going. All over the nation college enrollment is falling and in Utah most of the public colleges have less students this year than last. Many people coming out of high school go right into jobs, largely because the employment market is so hot right now. Some students who would have previously attended college are now in the work force. So every potential student is a gold nugget to colleges and they all have groups similar to the CEU ambassadors out there working for them to gather that treasure.
Allison Jarrett and Sarin Marsing are two examples of the ambassadors CEU has. Jarrett is from Hyde Park (in the Cache Valley) and Marsing hails from West Jordan. Both are full time students at CEU and work to recruit new students at the college fairs, in their home towns and other places.
"I like telling people about CEU," said Jarrett. "It's a good place to go to school."
Olsen says that bringing students to CEU benefits not only the school but the entire community, economically and socially.
So far the pigs have raised about $500 this year. And Olsen says it is amazing how fast money adds up when everyone donates a little.
"I took a pig to one of the Bread n' Soup nights," he said. "By the time I got through collecting change from people at the event we had $95 in the pig I was holding."

A few weeks ago I had the chance to exchange words on politics with a good friend of mine who sits on the County Democratic Central Committee. As conversations that start about politics usually end up we ended up talking about marriage and government's role in our lives.
I told my friend my option of marriage. "When are we going to tell government enough is enough?" I said. He responded, "That's not very good Republican Talk." The conversation left off from there and we went about our day fishing in near 40-degree weather, a practical heat wave.
My full belief is in a limited government. The more limited the government, the more freedoms people can enjoy. So why do we insist that a thing like government regulate intimacy? When people say gay marriage, tempers flare, but what if we said human sexual relations instead. Why are we letting the government decide how consenting people have sex? It's crazy; it's quite absurd when you think about it. Why on earth would we let government decide such a thing?
It seems like society is looking to government to solve all of its problems. What happened to communities getting families and neighbors together and making differences? It still happens, but becomes rarer and rarer as people choose to be governed rather than governing themselves. Neighbors go to government to 'fix' their neighbors when they could go and talk to them and resolve their issues together.
It makes sense that society would regulate itself; that's what religion is for and it makes sense that religion could dictate what sexual relations people can have that are members of that religion. It's called chastity.
What doesn't make sense is why we are allowing government to 'govern' relationships between competent human beings.
I am not an advocate of gay marriage. I fully believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman and that those family relationships are central to society's success. However I do not believe that it is government's role to make that choice for society. Society should choose for itself. Restricting gay marriage isn't going to make those couples less gay. They are free to choose the way they live.
If someone's religious beliefs dictate how to act in relationships, that's okay because it's what they subscribe to, that's what they want. Government should not regulate what society itself should handle.
Where are we going to draw the line on what government can and cannot regulate? What's next?

POTSDAM - A hot first half that saw the Clarkson University womens basketball team shoot over 80 percent at the start of the contest provided enough cushion to give the Golden Knights a 61-55 Liberty League win over Skidmore College Tuesday night at Alumni Gymnasium.
The Golden Knights improved their mark to 4-18 overall and 2-12 in the Liberty League while Skidmore fell to 12-11 overall and 10-4 in conference games. Clarkson closes out the regular season at RIT and William Smith this weekend.
Clarkson enjoyed its best shooting performance of any half of any game against Skidmore in the opening 20 minutes of Tuesdays contest, shooting 68.2 percent (15-for-22). The figure was even better in the early going, peaking at 86.7% following a run that saw the Knights make 12 of 13 attempts from the field to start the game 13-for-15. The hottest hand of all was freshman Isabella Esposito (Essex, VT), who buried seven of her nine shots from the field for a team-best 15 points, pushing Clarkson to a 19-point lead (29-10) with 7:46 remaining in the first half. Also hitting at a high rate was Ashley Loggins (Albany, NY), who had nine points on 4-for-6 shooting. Conversely, the Thoroughbreds didnt get on track until late in the half and especially struggled from distances, making only one of their 12 attempts from beyond the 3-point arc. Logan Frederick and Lauren Conway were the high scorers for the Thoroughbreds in the early going, each recording six points.
Skidmore quickly erased the Knights double-digit advantage by going on a 10-0 run in the first four minutes of the second half, but Clarkson would never relinquish the lead thanks to back-to-back 3-pointers from Ashley Loggins. Every time Skidmore would make a run, Clarkson had an answer, including a big offensive rebounds from Taylor Glidden (Littleton, NH) that turned into a kick out 3-pointer from Melissa Bogart (Voorheesville, NY) late in the game. Free throws down the stretch cinched the win for Clarkson.
Loggins finished with 20 points and 10 rebounds as well as four assists and three steals. Esposito ended with 17 points and Leighann Tomita (Cerritos, CA) had 13 points, shooting 9-for-11 from the free throw line.
For Skidmore Angela Botiba contributed 13 points while Logan Frederick had eight points and seven rebounds.
The SUNY Potsdam womens basketball team (1-22, 0-16 SUNYAC) dropped their road contest against SUNY Plattsburgh (12-11, 8-8 SUNYAC), 77-58 on Tuesday.
Senior guard Katy Briedis (Canton, N.Y.) and junior forward Jessica Kouzan (Webster, N.Y.) each notched 20 points.
Plattsburgh set the tone early in the contest with a 6-0 run. The Cardinals struck first with a three pointer just 18 seconds into the first half and capped off the spurt with a jump shot by sophomore guard Misha Green (New Rochelle, N.Y.). Junior guard Chenice Russell (Moira, N.Y.) stopped the early push with a three point basket at the 17:26 mark. Both teams would exchange baskets for three minutes until senior guard Catherine Cassidy (Brooklyn, N.Y.) drilled a three to spark an 8-0 run for Plattsburgh with 14:25 remaining. The Bears continued to fight for the remainder of the half. Briedis would connect on a bucket from beyond the arc at the 2:31 mark. The big three pointer poised Potsdam for a run but back-to-back triples by the Cardinals trampled the momentum. Green would add to the Plattsburgh lead with one tick left in the half, connecting on a jumper to give the Cardinals a 41-26 advantage at the break.
Potsdam remained persistent throughout the second stanza. Kouzan opened up the second half with a rare four-point play, making her three pointer and adding the free throw. The Cardinals were not fazed and maintained the pressure on both ends of the floor. However, the Bears continued to push and another three from Kouzan at the 9:33 mark cut the lead to 13 points.
Briedis would join her teammate, connecting on back-to-back three point baskets with 5:56 remaining to decrease the deficit to 10. Plattsburgh would weather the storm and mount an 8-1 offensive over the next two minutes to seal the win.
Freshman forward Devona Paul (Blauvelt, N.Y.) led the Cardinals with 16 points. Green finished with 12 points. Cassidy recorded a double-double performance with 11 points and 10 rebounds. Junior forward Kathleen Payne (Goshen, N.Y.) added 10 points and five assists.
The Bears return to action on Friday as they host Oswego State in the first game of their final SUNYAC weekend of the season.

SACKETS HARBOR — Joan E.I. Cuddeback looks like anyone's daughter, sister, friend. The 17-year-old plays basketball and soccer for Sackets Harbor Central High School and is a cashier at Panera Bread. Her best friend, Stephanie M. Heaslip, calls her "crazy in a good way."
But for years, Joan has fought a turmoil within.
Speaking to a reporter while tucked behind a corner table at Chrissy Beanz Bakery, Joan said quietly that when she turned 11, she began crying herself to sleep every night. Years ago, she added candidly, she began to think about physically hurting herself.
Last year, she began crying uncontrollably during the day.
"I don't really know what triggered it," she said before taking a sip of her fruit smoothie. "I didn't tell anybody. I just dealt with it."
Worried, her parents took her to see a doctor. Three months ago, Joan was diagnosed with clinical depression and was prescribed medication.
Joan was fortunate she received medical help. Children entering their teen years can experience mood swings, which can lead to rebellion and anxiety. Distinguishing depression from normal teenage frustrations can be a challenge for parents.
"It's misdiagnosed frequently, because teenagers can have a lot of anger," said Daun M. Whittaker, Jefferson County Mental Health Association executive director. "The typical things become too difficult for them. They stop doing things they enjoy. Depression really robs people of their life."
Approximately 5 percent of teens are experiencing major depression at any one time, according to www.teenhelp.com. At Joan's school, with a student body of 189 from seventh through 12th grades, that would be about nine other students needing similar help.
Teenage depression is not new, but with the increased use of social networks on the Internet, societal pressures to be attractive and popular and the changes in teenagers' hormones, students with depression can be easy targets for bullies. School officials are scrambling to increase awareness of depression and bullying.
Heather A. Smith, a 2001 Watertown High School graduate, returned to the school in April to tell students about her bout with severe clinical depression while in high school. Like Joan, Mrs. Smith was a bright and active student. During her freshman year, she was in myriad clubs and the marching band.
After contracting meningitis before 10th grade, however, Mrs. Smith noticed a shift in her personality. She started withdrawing from the activities she signed up for the previous year and withdrawing from her closest friends.
"It was an incredibly lonely and terrifying place to be," she said during an assembly in the school's auditorium. "That connection wasn't there anymore."
Her experience with depression began to spiral out of control. Over the next two years, she was in and out of hospitals and began cutting herself as a cry for help. She became suicidal as the years wore on.
"Talk therapy was not enough to lift me to a safer place," she told students.
Mrs. Whittaker said the majority of people who believe they have depression can be cured through diet and behavior.
"There are some people whose behavior causes their depression," she said. "The wrong diet or lack of exercise can all change serotonin levels."
She said depression is caused by a shift in serotonin. These shifts can be caused by junk food, high sugar intake, not sleeping enough and winter weather. Acting depressed — hunched posture and eyes to the ground — can lead to feeling sad.
"It takes 21 days for a body to accept change," she said.
However, she said, there is a percentage of people who need medical attention to get help for a more severe type of depression, the kind that cannot be solved through sleeping more or eating better.
"I work with a lot of people who have been hospitalized," Mrs. Whittaker said. "Changing your diet isn't going to help it if you have severe depression."
Symptoms of clinical depression include withdrawal, anger, low-level aggression, unusual sleep patterns and feeling overwhelmed.
She said a teenager's best bet to figure out whether he or she has clinical depression is to visit a primary care physician, as Joan did.
"School counselors may miss depression because they face teenage culture on a daily basis," Mrs. Whittaker said. "I think we tend to be a little dismissive."
In a worst-case scenario, a teen may decide suicide is the only answer. In May, Watertown senior Erin K. Foley killed herself in the woods near Jefferson Community College. Although some suspected she had been the victim of bullies, she never mentioned being bullied to the people to whom she was closest. Family and friends now believe Erin repressed years of depression.
"In hindsight, I can see the signs I wished I'd followed up on instead of leaving it at 'I'm fine,'" said her father, Paul J. Foley. "In elementary and middle school, Erin was active and outgoing, but in high school, I could see her becoming more withdrawn."
Shortly after Mrs. Smith's visit, Watertown City School District Superintendent Terry N. Fralick announced the high school will have an anti-bullying task force starting in the fall.
"Depression is connected to bullying," he said. "There are a lot of young people who need our help and don't know where to turn."
The task force will serve to address policies and activities at the high school and will consist of community members as well as depression and bullying experts.
Statewide, the Dignity of All Students Act against bullying at school as well as an anti-cyberbullying law were enacted at the month's beginning.
Joanne T. Heaslip, the mother of Joan's best friend, Stephanie, started a glee club at Sackets Harbor Central High School in September. The club was formed to provide a safe haven for students who are bullied or feel left out.
Joan and Stephanie are members.
"We talk about accomplishments," Mrs. Heaslip said. "We talk about situations at school and about situations at home. They're getting a sense of security in the group. A lot of them have problems at home."
Kristie L. Fuller, Indian River High School theater director, is attempting to expose the seeds of bullying in a new docudrama for the coming school year.
Lowville Academy and Central School Superintendent Kenneth J. McAuliffe initiated several supports at his schools to ensure students with depression or who abuse drugs and alcohol get the help they need. He said most households have both parents working today, and schools are being held more responsible for turning students into productive members of society.
Dorothy W. Lalonde, a Canton middle and high school health teacher, agreed. She starts covering depression and cyberbullying as early as sixth grade.
"I feel that a lot of kids today are carrying a lot of issues," she said. "They try to battle it alone. They're not alone. They're not abnormal."
Mrs. Smith, the daughter of Watertown Board of Education member Yvonne E. Gebo, has been cured of her depression for nearly a decade. During the Watertown assembly, she recounted the successes in her life: graduating from the University at Albany with honors, working as a psychology research assistant at Columbia University and marrying the love of her life on June 23.
"I've worked in clinical studies with adolescents, but this is the first time I shared my story," she said.
She wanted to make sure any anonymous high school students facing the deep lows of depression understood there is a way out other than suicide.
"Depression is just like any other illness," Mrs. Gebo said after her daughter's talk. "It's treatable. Suicide is a permanent solution to a short-term problem."
Unlike most depressed students, who begin to withdraw from others, Joan for the last two years amplified the number of school activities she took part in, trying to eliminate any free time when she might think about the insecurities and confusion in her head.
Even though she is still being treated, Joan is stable enough to plan for her future, which includes applying to the University of North Carolina in Wilmington during the coming year.
Her father, Shaun D. Cuddeback, a county sheriff's deputy, has seen the illness strike other family members and said he believes the experience will always be a part of her.
"I don't think it's over and done with," he said. "I don't believe it's something she'll ever be over and done with."

Burns Supper
Sandy on January 24th, 2012
On, January 25th every year Scots all over the world gather to celebrate the birth date of Robert Burns (25 January 1759 – 21 July 1796). My cousin shares the same birthday as the Bard—Happy Birthday T.B. Robert Burns, born in Alloway, Ayreshire, Scotland, is also known as the Ploughman Poet. His popularity back then (and […]

Combining the names of colors is a fun way to make two words shorter, yet still get your meaning across. This is important especially for places like twitter, where characters come at a premium. Instead of typing Gray and Yellow, just type Grellow! #thisishowtweepsroll
You might wonder how I know that Grellow is Gray and Yellow, and not Green and Yellow. I really can't say. These are things you just know. To wit, try a flickr search or a Ravelry project search. While there is the occasional rogue photo of something green and yellow, that is wrong. Grellow stands for the pleasing and sublime combination of Gray and Yellow. (And just so you know, Preen is Purple and Green, Blorange is Blue and Orange, bleen is NOT blue and green and yak is NOT yellow and black. Get with the program.)
So why do I bring it up? Because I am now the proud owner of Grellow mittens!
The lovely and talented Elinor Brown made them for me, as part of the Stranded Mitten Swap! Aren't they gorgeous? And they fit, which she was worried about, considering she has smaller than average hands and I have big man hands. The mittens are perfect, and I love them.
The yarn is Ultra Alpaca in a very graphic allover diamond pattern. There are braids.
And she even sent some scrap yarn, just in case they need mending.
Elinor sent two other surprises in the package. Yarn and cookies. Man did she nail it. The yarn is Briggs and Little Regal, and can best be described as a woolly wool and that is pretty much all you need to know. I love it. And the cookies. Well.
At first I thought they had a peanut butter cup in the center, but they're better than that. According to Elinor, they are Vegan Peanut Butter Filled Chocolate Cookies. But not vegan because she used butter. This recipe is going to get printed out and added to my go-to cookie recipe file because they were so good! Notice how I said were. Yeah. Let's just say we all liked them very much.
Grazie mille, Elinor! You are a knitting and baking rock star!

Onam Pookalam – Photos of Floral Designs. Talk about Onam in Kerala and one of the first images that come to mind is that of the flower bed or floral (designs) arrangements known as Pookkalam or Athapookalam. The traditional Ona-pookalam usually consists of ten rings indicating the ten day ritual during the ten day celebrations of Onam which begins on Atham and ends on Thiru Onam in the month of Chingam (August – September). In 2015, Onam is on August 28. (We will update Onam Pookkalam 2015 photos as we receive them).
Nowadays many pookkalams concentrate more on the design part and in the process the ten rings are avoided. The pookkalams mainly concentrate on the various cultural aspects of Kerala and on the Onam myth.
Here are pictures of some of the Pookkalams that won first prize in competitions held in Onam 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005. The aim is to give an idea of the various modern designs used in pookalam, which is a natural rangoli or kolam. The larger image might not be always of high quality.

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate associate editor
Darin S. Hawkinson, the 47-year-old East Carbon man charged with causing the deaths of two women in a chain-reaction collision on U.S. 6 near Wellington last September, pleaded guilty Friday to two counts of automobile homicide.
Each count of auto homicide is a third-degree felony, punishable by up to five years in prison, a $5,000 fine and restitution. In a plea agreement between defense attorney Sam Chiara and county prosecutors, the felonies were amended from the original charges of second degree. A third count of misdemeanor speeding was dropped.
Seventh Judicial District Court Judge George M. Harmond set sentencing for Aug. 13 pending a presentencing report from Adult Probabtion and Parole. The judge advised Hawkinson of his rights and the potential consequences of his decision to plead guilty.
Hawkinson appeared in court using a cane and leg braces for support. He was also injured in the Sept. 23 collision near Cat Canyon and had been hospitalized with multiple injuries.
According to the Utah Highway Patrol, Hawkinson was driving westbound at 81 mph in a 65 mph zone when his 1995 Chevrolet Cavalier drifted off to the right side of the road, then over corrected and crossed the center line directly into the path of an eastbound 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe.
The Santa Fe was carrying driver Steven Dee Hulse, 64, Sandy, and three passengers.
The Santa Fe struck Hawkinson's vehicle broadside, ripping it completely in half. The impact then sent the Santa Fe into a collision with a Peterbilt tractor trailer, also eastbound.
Killed in the crash were the two women in the Santa Fe, 64-year-old Sharlene Atkinson and 63-year-old Lynnette C. Hulse. Steven Hulse was critically injured and William G. Atkinson Jr., 65, suffered serious injuries. All four of the victims in the Santa Fe had been wearing seatbelts, according to the UHP.
Hawkinson, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was critically injured.

Pedestrians approach the Los Angeles Times Building in downtown Los... ニュース写真アメリカ合州国,カリフォルニア州,ファイナンス,メディア,ロサンゼルス市,商業地区,接近する,歩行者,縦長Photographer FREDERIC J. BROWNCollection: AFP 2013 AFPPedestrians approach the Los Angeles Times Building in downtown Los Angeles, California on July 10, 2013. The Tribune Company, a group which owns 23 television stations, announced plans Wednesday to spin off its newspaper division, which includes the Los Angeles Times and Chicago Tribune, separating the struggling unit from its growing television station holdings. Tribune Company last week announced a $2.7 billion deal to buy 19 more local television stations and has said splitting into two distinct companies would give each 'greater financial and operational focus.'
