Several friends and myself received a purple flyer from Emery Telcom on Jan. 25 advising us of an open house on Jan. 24 to discuss 'Extended Local Calling' between Emery and Carbon Counties.
Usage of the word 'Free' was overabundant thru out the flyer. However, closer inspection reveled this is a cleverly worded attempt to raise Emery and Carbon Counties customers phone bill by 50 cents.
"Absolutely, this will be a benefit for the customer and the community and comes at a small cost. 'Most' customers will save much more than the 50 cents in eliminated long distance fees" (currently 7 cents per minute) quoted from the flyer.
Sounds good on the surface, but the people I've talked too don't call into Emery County, nor do I. Although, a 50 cent additional charge a month on the monthly bill won't drive us into the poor-house, still it remains an additional expense to those for a service not used or needed.
Bottom line: Who would this benefit? Why of course, the limited services and business located in Emery County (not to mention addition profits for Emery-Telcom) all of which are available in Price and more so, not to mention avoiding the additional costs of mileage involved for Carbon County residents.
What ever happened to "Truth-In-Advertising"?
If this service is implemented it should be on an optional acceptance basis of those individuals using it.

We Want Your Great Debate Privacy Questions
As soon as I heard about the theme of this year's IAB Leadership Meeting I immediately asked my friends at IAB to find a role for me there. I do cover big data and how marketers use it for Advertising Age, after all, so it seemed a perfect fit.
I'll admit, though, the chance of catching a couple spring training games the weekend before the conference piqued my interest just a tad, too.
Well, IAB came through with an exciting opportunity for me: channel your inner Candy Crowley and moderate the annual Great Debate. The privacy, self-regulatory and government beat has been an important one for me over the years covering digital advertising, and this year's Great Debate will help advance the discussion around privacy related topics. For years, digital marketers and privacy advocates have talked at each other, usually from opposite ends of the spectrum.
In Phoenix on February 26, they'll comingle on the same stage, and hopefully elevate the conversation to a new level. My goal as moderator is to get beyond the buzzwords and rhetoric. And — no offense to the Candy Crowleys and Jim Lehrers of the world — I hope I'm more successful than most presidential debate moderators in that mission.
Sure, I'll come armed with some poignant questions intended to spark a lively and educational conversation. But I need your help and involvement, too.
Here's your task: Ponder the important issues related to consumer data privacy and how marketers collect, store and use data. Think about topics like PII, anonymization, the prevalence of tracking tags, industry self-regulation, our favorite little blue icon, government intervention from legislators and the FTC, the emerging privacy services market…the list goes on and on.
Come up with the best question you can think of that will get our debate panel off their talking points and into a real discussion. Maybe it will get heated - heck, we'll be in Arizona, right? Submit your best question by tweeting it to @IAB and including the hashtag #IABALM. We'll sift through all of them and pluck out the cream of the crop, and you may get to ask the question yourself during the Great Debate.
I look forward to reading your questions and saying hello to you in Phoenix later this month!

Usual care.
Detailed Description:
Nearly 1 million patients develop respiratory failure annually in the United States; yet, the sleep of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation has received little attention. This project is designed to characterize sleep and circadian rhythmicity in critically ill patients and to explore the efficacy of a non-pharmacological intervention to improve sleep and normalize circadian phase. The study will examine the effect of a protocol employing noise reduction and enforcement of a robust light-dark cycle on sleep quality and circadian rhythmicity. A secondary analysis will examine the relationship between delirium and sleep disruption and loss of circadian rhythmicity. Circadian rhythmicity will be characterized through the measurement of urinary 6-sulfatoxymelatonin levels at frequent intervals, while sleep will be assessed using continuous polysomnography.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older

Californians organized to acquire access to state tidelines C.O.A.A.S.T Save YOUR Coast! Post office box 3284 Santa Rosa, California 95403 [707] 762-6219 Minutes- Board of Directors' Meeting-Nov. 3, 1969 Present: Directors: Barbara Biebush Joe Brumbaugh, Richard Day, Charles Hinkle, Rod Hug, Bill Kortum, Gladys O'Connell Charles Rhinehart, Ernestine Smith, and Richard Van Gieson Absent: Peter Leveque. Guests: Assemblyman John Dunlap(Napa), Supervisor Robert Thieller, Messrs. John Tuteur, Don Engdahl, Tom Moss, Joseph Rodata (Dir. Parks & Recreation Santa Rosa), and Ex. Eir. Of COAAST, Alan Chambliss. 1. President Kortum reported on the status of the Cape Bodega Reyes Development. He said that he had walked out the southenr arroyo and found that a portion of the adjacent Bottarini property cuts across this arroyo, and hence the subdivider cannot provide access al the way to the beach through property owned by him. Bill Kortum also reported that an expensive bridge would be required to span the middle arroyo. Joe Brumbaugh reported that the marsh behind the sand dunes is the only remaining marsh in the area. There is also a legal problem regarding the ownership of the dues. 2. The following officers were elected: President, Will Kortum; Vice President Charles Hinkle; Secretary, Barbara Biebush; and Treasuer, Peter Leveque. 3. Mr. John Tuteur, Jr. of Napa introduced Assemblyman John Dunlap, who discussed plans to introduce a bill in the state legislature creating a Coast Development Commission. Mr. Dunlap and Assemblyman Alan Sieroty of Beverly Hills are hopeful that the new speaker, lir Howard Way, will assist them in getting their bill out of committee. The Coast Development Commission would be patterned after the Bay Conservation and Development Commission and will provide for developing the coast line into three regions for administrative purposes: (1) from the Oregon border to the Golden Gate, (2) From the Golden Gate to the Santa Barbara County line, (3) the re,maining southern portion of the coast. Mr. Dunlap also emphasized the importance of public interest and pressure on legislators if the bill is to be passed. Mr. Tom Moss, Field Representative for the Planning and Conservation League (P.C.), discussed the recent P.C.L. workshop held in Santa Barbara. This meeting had 12 panels, including one on coastal problems. He also said that people in Southern California are highly concerned about coastal problems but grass roots support for the proposed Coastal Commission is needed on a State-wide basis. John Tuteur said that a highly organized state-wide campaign would be required to lobby for the Commission bill. 4. Mr. Don Engahl discussed plans for a coastal walk from Oregon to Mexico which he anticipates would provide material for magazine stories and a book, plus possibly newspaper feature stories. He would hope to cover the 1200 miles in 3 to 4 months, spending as much time as possible on the beach and living on a fairly primitive level. He estimates it would cost $6-7,000 which should be more than offset by sale of stories. 5. A discussion of Petaluma Creek brought out the fact that the Economic Development Board (Keith Dwyer) is now making a study of how long it should be used. Presumably the results of this study would be important in the County Master Plan.

Brig. Gen. Robert C. Nolan II, Air Force Flight Test Center commander, addresses a packed Alliance Ballroom in Club Muroc at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., June12 during his retirement luncheon. Nolan will leave the Air Force after a 33-year career. The general was presented with a shadow box with a flag and medals by Team Edwards. He relinquished command of the Air Force Flight Test Center to Brig. Gen. Arnold W. Bunch Jr. June 19. Under Nolan's command, the AFFTC graduated more than 90 new test professionals from the U.S.A.F. Test Pilot School; further developed the operational envelope of the F-35A; oversaw innovative solutions for the F-22 oxygen problem; oversaw upgrades to systems on the C-17, C-5 and C-130; tested new gliders and powered flight platforms for the Air Force Academy; among many other achievements. "I've had the rare priviledge in Air Force Materiel Command to command soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and Coast Guardsmen on behalf of the United States, and I can't tell you how much appreciation I have for the men and women in this room." Nolan officially retires Aug. 1.

I have seen the orange ribbons for a long time so I should not be this surprised at the flow quality. Great use of vertical, great design and it should sustain well. We just had had substantial rain and there was no runoff damage. Please post any follow up trail work, I want to contribute. Thanks to all who worked with DCR to get this done.

Thursday, September 25, 2008It may not feel like spring, but the Bisons are already getting ready for the upcoming baseball season.
Fall practice began on Sep 15 and continues through the end of October. The practices are designed to give the team and coaching staff an idea of what they need to improve on before the season starts.
"The first and foremost thing we want to do is to look at the freshmen and transfer students," said assistant coach Brian Ryman. "We want to see how they stack up against the returning players."
Although many players will be returning from last year's historic team, there are still plenty of new faces joining the Bisons this year.
"It goes back to these young guys and what kind of contribution they are going to make," said head coach Jeff Forehand. "They are a talented bunch. That is the fun part for me, watching them develop."
The Bisons are looking to build on last year's successes by defending their Atlantic Sun title and returning to the NCAA Tournament. The first step towards that goal is a productive fall practice.
"I think it is different from season to season," said Forehand. "We are younger, we have 10 new freshmen that really need to jump in and learn the roles. It is going to be more of a teaching and fundamental time."
The freshmen are not the only people who will be making their Lipscomb debut this season.
Following the Bisons successful NCAA Tournament run, Forehand added Trevecca Nazarene University head coach Chris Collins to his staff. Collins, who played and coached under Forehand at Trevecca, went on to become the head coach following Forehand's departure to Lipscomb.
"Coach Collins gives us another set of eyes," said Forehand. "Our philosophies are similar. He is an extension of what we have been doing these past two years. It will be an adjustment for some of the older players coming back, but not for me."
Fall practice is not only a time for new players to adjust to the Lipscomb system, but also a time for everyone to have fun.
Starting in October, the team will play inter-squad games on Thursdays and Fridays that will be open for anyone to watch. There will even be a Purple vs Gold World Series in which a steak dinner is cooked for the winning team.
"Lipscomb In Motion will be sponsoring a grill out on Oct. 10 to get people to come out to one of the inter-squad games," said Garner Goode, the director of student involvement. "The goal is to build up the buzz about the baseball program."
Written by Benjamin Seamon, student assistant in the Lipscomb athletic media relations department. This story was cross-published in The Babbler, Lipscomb's student newspaper.

The 21st century has witnessed a great rise in development around the world. Communications and scientific research are developing at a rapid pace. The world is moving toward great change in culture and lifestyle. Gender equality is becoming common in many places, and girls are achieving heights once thought not possible.
However, even as the world is moving toward progress, the age-old social evil of female infanticide still shows its ugly face in developing countries such as India.
The prevalence of female infanticide in Chellampatty, Madurai, is heartbreaking. No efforts to curb this social evil have succeeded thus far.
However, our Child Survival Program (CSP) has become a powerful instrument of God to change, eradicate and reduce the prevalence of female infanticide and feoticide in this society through adequate postnatal care and effective child development. One particular Child Survival Program doing this is aptly named "Mercy."
Female infanticide is the intentional killing of girl babies. Even in modern India, some parents long for a male child rather than a female. As a result, they adopt different methods to get rid of baby girls soon after they are born.
Parents normally do not kill the first or second girl child. But the third female child born in the family often is killed. Villagers use every available means to kill an unwanted girl child.
Some babies are given cactus milk that acts as a poison; hot chicken soup is poured into the baby's mouth; babies are made to lie down on wet sack cloth, and unable to bear the wetness the babies die of fits; at the time of delivery, as the baby comes out from the mother's womb, the nose and mouth of the baby is deliberately closed for some time until it dies of suffocation, and so on.
The motive behind such a practice is the dowry system, which requires that a bride's family pay out a great deal of money or property when a female child is married. Thus, for poor families, the birth of a girl child is seen as the beginning of financial downfall and extreme poverty. Also, a family without a male child is considered to be a family without an inheritance.
No sooner than a girl child is born, the parents begin to save money exclusively for the girl to prepare for the large sum of money that has to be spent on her as she grows up.
During puberty, a great feast is traditionally held, inviting friends and relatives. The purpose is to declare that their girl child is fit for marriage. The parents spend a lot of money for this event.
When giving her in marriage, a large sum of money has to be spent again for a dowry. Most often the dowry demanded is much above what the family can afford. As a result, to get their daughter married, parents are forced to borrow the amount, and they have to spend the rest of their lives repaying the amount borrowed.
And the cost of a daughter isn't over with marriage. The parents are expected to continue spending for their girl child. During the eighth month of their daughter's pregnancy, they are to hold a grand event, and the first delivery expenses have to be taken care of by them.
The parents are to put ornaments of gold on their grandchild when he or she is born, and they have to bear the expenses of an ear-piercing ceremony, another grand event to which all friends and relatives are invited. Nearly $1,000 to $2,200 is spent on average.
Moreover, whenever there is a death in the family of the girl's husband, the entire funeral expenses have to be borne by the girl's parents.
Because of these many financial obligations invited by a birth of a girl child, very little attention is given to girls in the family. They are considered a burden.
Recognizing the need in this area, the staff at the Mercy Child Survival Program are working to save the lives of innocent girl babies.
Initially, they identify pregnant mothers and their families and begin counseling them. The women are encouraged to accept the birth of a girl child. Awareness classes are conducted on various issues, such as family planning, reproduction, child birth, abortion, types of delivery, immunization, communicable diseases and child marriage.
But beyond advocacy for the babies, there are numerous occasions wherein the staff have intervened and saved the life of a girl child.
A woman named Pandeswari gave birth to twin girls, Ramaye and Lakshmi. Her husband, Muniyandi, works as a sweeper. Pandeswari had one daughter already, so the birth of twin girls disappointed them.
Although determining the gender of a baby before birth is illegal in India, in their town it is still secretly done. As a result, the moment parents come to know it is a girl child, the child is aborted.
In this case, the family wanted to abort the twins in the womb. However, the Child Survival Program staff closely watched over them, counseled them, and protected the babies.
One day, when the Child Survival Program meeting was going on, Kanamma, Pandeswari's mother-in-law, came to the meeting with her two newborn granddaughters and laid them on the floor. One baby weighed under two pounds and the other weighed 2 1/4 pounds.
Kannamma said very openly to the staff at the Child Survival Program,
"We can't take care of these two children. If you want to save the children, please help us; otherwise we don't mind killing them."
Both babies were enrolled in the Child Survival Program. And now, the girls are in the child sponsorship program.
Yet another instance involves a mother called Amudha. She had two daughters. When she conceived for the third time, everyone eagerly expected her to give birth to a boy child. However, even the third time, she bore a girl.
This disappointed everyone in that family as well as in the village. Everybody advised her to kill the baby and wait for another child who might be a boy.
At that time a CSP staff member intervened and counseled the mother and father that female infanticide is a social evil. The family was also promised help through the Child Survival Program.
Now this child, Swathi, is five years old. She is a Compassion-sponsored child.
Another mother who was helped is Radhika. She has two daughters named Adhisaya and Lavanya. When the first daughter was born, the father was not happy.
The second time a daughter was born, Radhika went through several struggles. There were lots of fights and quarreling among the family.
When Radhika conceived for the third time, she moved to her mother's place in the third month of her pregnancy, fearing that her husband and her in-laws would kill the baby in the womb.
Radhika's baby was born and she had another girl, now 20 months old. However, Radhika's husband has not come to take her back home or to even look at his child.
Her husband says, "I don't need the girl child."
The Child Survival Program provides constant support to the little child. All of Radhika's daughters are with her now. They have lost the love of their father, and because of it, at times Radhika felt that she would end her life.
However, due to the encouragement and support provided by the CSP staff, Radhika and her children have a new lease on life.
Had it not been for the Child Survival Program and your support, today you would find children like Ramaye, Lakshmi and Swathi only in the grave.

BGA: Salary Cap Update 6.0
When I last did a salary cap update, the Jets had approximately $11m of cap room available, even after accounting for the cost of signing their rookies and without accounting for them using the available $1.5m in exceptions to "borrow" some cap room from future years. Since then, the Jets have signed Chaz Schilens, Drew Stanton, Laron Landry and Scotty McKnight, traded for Tim Tebow and then traded Stanton away.
The effect of these moves is that the Jets should have about $6m of cap room after accounting for the likely cost of rookies, but before accounting for the use of a possible $1.5m exemption, or close to $10m ignoring the cost of rookies and assuming they'll use that exemption.

Chaz Schilens
Schilens basically got the same contract as Nick Folk – $765,000 over one year. As a minimum salary deal, this qualifies for a cap reduction of $160,000, so the additional cap room required for him to replace a minimum salaried player in the top 51 salaries is just $200,000.
Drew Stanton
When the Jets signed Stanton for $1.5m, this used up approximately $1.1m of cap room. At this stage, the Jets had between $9m and $10m of cap room after accounting for the net cost of signing rookies.
Tim Tebow
I've been holding off on doing a salary cap update until we had a better idea of what exactly was going on with the Tim Tebow contract. Thanks to some behind-the-scenes investigation from Jason of NYJetsCap.com, we now have a pretty good idea of what his cap charges look like going forward. It's complicated, but to cut a long story short, when the deal was finalized, the teams worked with the league to find a solution whereby the Jets ended up getting Tebow with a very cap-friendly contract but without screwing the Broncos at the same time. In addition, one effect of the trade appears to be that it reverses some previously earned incentives that were unlocked on the assumption he'd be remaining in Denver, so now he has to meet similar or equivalent incentives as a Jet to re-earn the same salaries he was set to earn if he remained with the Broncos. One final point is that they will be paying him $1m this year and $1.5m next year (as opposed to the other way around, as was widely reported) in settlement of the $5m salary advance that the Broncos contended was due to be returned to them when he left the team.
The bottom line is that his cap charges are much more reasonable than previously feared and – unless he attains performance-based incentives, his cap charges will amount to about $5.5m over the next three years. The performance-based incentives in Tebow's contract included things like Pro Bowl appearances, rankings in QB ratings lists and winning postseason games in a season where he'd played 70% of the snaps. However, there was also an incentive based on 55% playing time, which he did meet. I would imagine that's the one he'd have to meet to push those 2013 and 2014 salaries back over $6m per year and if the Jets are true to their word that he's only going to be used "up to 20 snaps per game" he shouldn't threaten that unless there's an injury. Even if he did earn those escalators, the money wouldn't necessarily be guaranteed.
As well as the news that his contract looks more reasonable going forward, the 2012 salary appears to be just $2.1m which is pretty good value compared to Brad Smith's $4m per year contract with the Bills, assuming that's the type of role they have earmarked for him. He'll also get a roster bonus of just under $500,000.
Laron Landry
Laron Landry's deal was originally reported as being a one-year, $4m deal, with the assumption that this was all base salary. In fact, as we've already covered on TJB, this follows a recent pattern of deals being more cap friendly than originally reported. Not only is the contract value only $3.5m, but also half of that money is tied up in weekly roster bonuses that are only paid if he's on the active 46 man roster – so he won't get the money in any week where he's injured. Since Landry played eight games last year, that means only eight of the weekly roster bonuses count against the cap this year, with the rest being treated as not likely to be earned. They'll get a cap adjustment next year based on how many games he actually played (eg if he played six, they'd get a cap credit equal to two unpaid roster checks, but if he plays 12, the Jets will get an additional cap charge in 2013 equivalent to the four payments that hadn't already been accounted for on 2012's cap). The end result is that his cap charge will be $2.6m in 2012. Adding Tebow and Landry's cap charges to the cap uses up $4.3m of cap room once you've removed two minimum salaries from the top 51 to make room for them. This reduced their cap room to about $5.2m after accounting for the cost of rookies.
Trading Drew Stanton
When the Jets completed the Tim Tebow trade, this made Drew Stanton surplus to requirements. Even though they had paid him a $500K signing bonus which they can't get back and that will count against the cap as dead money, they still made a cap saving by trading him, because his $1m in salary and roster bonus money comes off the books. You need to add a minimum salaried guy back to the top 51, so the net cap saving is $600K, pushing the available cap room back to just under $6m.
Scotty McKnight
Finally, Scotty McKnight will almost certainly have received a non-guaranteed minimum salary contract with no cap consequences. Even if it wasn't a minimum salary deal, he probably isn't going to make the team, so this move is of no financial consequence.
What's Left?
With the free agent market seemingly slowing down, it looks like the Jets might be waiting until after the draft to make any more moves. There's a few guys out there who will need to work out to prove themselves before any teams will give them a contract, including former Jets Braylon Edwards and Jim Leonhard. Additional cap room may also be required if they're planning to trade up in the draft.
Should they need to create any additional cap room – for example if the right move for a high-salaried player was offered to them in a trade – then the Jets do have some scope to create $5m of room pretty easily, as well as the afore-mentioned $1.5m exemption. I'd imagine that they will leave a buffer of $2-3m for cutdown casualties, in-season waiver claims and potential trades for injury replacements. Don't forget that any unused cap room can be rolled forward and used next year, where the Jets cap commitments currently don't appear to be too restricting.
As ever, we will continue to keep you as up-to-date with the cap situation as possible. If you spot any discrepancies or conflicting reports, please let us know and we will update things to keep them as accurate as we can.

Read: What Kris Newbury Thinks About Chris Kreider
In his brief time in Hartford so far, Chris Kreider has drawn praise from different areas of the hockey world for his play and his potential.
Kris Newbury, who has played on a line with Kreider and Chad Kolarik, told the Rangers website,"He is a guy that can really move. For me and our line to work you wanna have the puck in his hands and he demonstrated tonight that he has a great shot. My first option is always to look for him."
Newbury, who played with Carl Hagelin before he was called up last season, said that the two of them used to run a play that may work with Kreider as well
CLICK HERE to see Kreider's hat trick from over the weekend.
Justin Bourne, at Backhand Shelf, listed Kreider as one of the top 25 players under 25.
Michael Haley said at Blueshirts United "he is a big boy. He is fast and he moves well. I think he will be a good player. He is consistent as long as he is banging and being a good power forward he will be pretty special here."

United States has many places for retired folks to stroll out their golden years in peace. Presumably, these neighborhoods are cheaper, with available services nearby. If you are retired military, especially Navy or Marine Corps, many of you'all don't leave San Diego or the Norfolk area.
In my gym this morning, I had three conversations with retired vets. One was a Surface Supply Corps guy who taught at the local high school. He felt embarrassed because even though he had retired many years ago, he asked me if I was in the Marines or the Navy. I smiled and said, Navy, and took it as a compliment. Maybe you Leathernecks might be insulted. Nothing I can do. Blame the Supply Corps and their weak uniform recognition.
The second was a quiet, elderly man. He had been stationed at the ASW (Anti-Submarine Warfare) base over in Point Loma. You know of it? he asked.
Yes sir, my dentist is over there, I said before leaving him and the locker-room.
And the third veteran was one I had chatted with a couple of times in the past. He looks about 65 years old. Except, he fought in World War II, after enlisting at age 16 in the Marine Corps. I'm 86, he had told me once.
I see him working out on one of the machines as I head toward the door.
Hey sir, save some weights for us, you can't lift 'em all!
He laughs. Keeping my weight. I was 123 pounds when I joined up. Not anymore. My rifle and bayonet were way over my head when held to my boot.
Marine Corps, are you not the Department of the Navy? I ask with a wicked grin.
He shoots me a look of miscomprehension, before boxing my arm. I guess so.
How long did you stay in the Marine Corps?
Three wars, he replies. (Not, I retired. Not, I did my hitch. Not, I did twenty years. But, three wars.) World War II, in the Pacific, I was shot twice. Iwo Jima and Guadalcanal. Korea, and of course, Vietnam.
I look at my watch. I am late for work, I had lifted weights after cardio. Still, I listen as he continues. You hear all these guys saying they have PTSD? I had it. We all did. You better not creep up behind me. It's all part of war.
How was coming back home?
Different in each one. They offered me a slot at OCS when I was in Korea. I was a Staff Sergeant then. I could sign on as an officer, but I would have returned to Korea.
You still can, we need you!
He laughs. Me and this other guy both got talked to. He took it, and retired a Major. I passed and retired a Sergeant Major. I'm just a guy. A Sergeant. I didn't have no education. I was happy.
You miss it?
Yes I do.
How was Vietnam?
What you read and what you hear are nothing close to what happened. You know Tet?
I was there. Our first day was rough. But after that, we kicked the dog-crap out of the VC. Sixty, Seventy thousand dead. Or more. There was none left for us to fight.
I have always thought you all deserved better when you returned.
Yeah. Maybe. I never got called nothing. No baby-killer. None of that. Maybe it was my look. I would've beat the pis out of anyone that did.
Sir, I say. I got to run to work. Thanks for chatting.
He shakes my hand and off I push through the doors out into a San Diego morning. I am late. But it was worth it. I don't get to speak to heroes like that every day.
Oddly, enlisted Sailor, Marine, Soldier, or Airman is listed as the third-worst job by CareerCast.com to hold. In my eyes, most polls, lists, and surveys reflect bias:
In their annual career survey, an online job bank ranked one of the nation's toughest, proudest and most critical occupations as the third-worst job to have: sailor.
In fact, the CareerCast.com survey didn't appear to appear to distinguish between the services; the category was named "enlisted military soldier," but the photo accompanying it features four models in Navy uniforms (BDUs, crackerjacks, flight suit and summer whites). Only lumberjack (first place) and dairy farmer (runner-up) edged out enlisted as the worst-of-the-worst. (To be sure, newspaper reporter was not far behind at fifth-worst.)
To any young man or woman considering enlisting, I can tell you that joining the military is the challenge and time of your life. You can take my word for it or I can introduce you to an old Sergeant Major, the kind of man maybe we don't raise anymore in this country. He'll tell you, he wants back in. . .

BUFFALO, NY-- The Buffalo Sabres are dead last in their division and many fans are hoping changes will be made to get them back to their winning ways.
When he took over nearly two years ago, Sabres owner Terry Pegula said the sole reason for the franchise to exist was to win the Stanley Cup.
But, 14-games into the lockout-shortened season, the Sabres seem
as far as ever from that goal.
Head Coach Lindy Ruff had his team back on the ice Thursday at First Niagara Center getting ready for Friday night's game with Boston, and despite the team's 5-8-1 start, he continues to have the support of Sabres owner Terry Pegula.
Team President Ted Black echoed that support when he sat down with 2 On Your Side's Adam Benigni.
This is what he had to say to the many Sabres' fans who are beyond frustrated with the team's losing outcome.
Adam Benigni: Do the fans have a right to expect more?
Ted Black: Hell yeah. There's no town that deserves Stanley Cup more than this one. The fans expect more, they deserve more, and we're going to do the damnest we can to provide more.
We'll have more in-depth interviews with Black, Ruff and Darcy Regier on Sunday during the pre-game show Sunday on Channel 2 at 11:30am, as well as wgrz.com.

BUFFALO, NY - Jim Heaney, one of our watchdog reporting partners at Investigative Post, interviewed the businessman who is spearheading the effort to build a multi-purpose sports venue in Buffalo's outer harbor, including a football stadium to house the Buffalo Bills.
Heaney spoke to George Hasiotis, also an expert in cross-border trade, about the stadium plans, and about business opportunities with the growing province of Ontario that he thinks Western New York is missing out on.

By Sal Maiorana Rochester Democrat & Chronicle
ORCHARD PARK - Nice to see the Bills take care of business in a game they were clearly favored to win. Too bad it came a month and a half too late.
The Bills beat up on an inferior Jacksonville team, 34-18, the way they should have beaten up on an inferior Tennessee team back on Oct. 21. That was the tipping point for their season, and had they whipped the Titans (not to mention the Colts last week in another game that was eminently winnable), Sunday's victory over the Jaguars would have meant a whole lot more.
Alas, all this did was get the Bills to 5-7 and still staring at mountainous odds to make the playoffs. But hey, they live for another week, so good for them. Here are my thoughts:
• Does anyone miss Mike Mularkey? I can't hammer him too much because he has very little to work with, but he looks like the same coach who flamed out in Buffalo in 2005 and then quit on the team. Good luck, Jacksonville.
• The run of bad luck for center Eric Wood has not ended. Wood - who has had two of his four NFL seasons ruined by serious injuries - suffered a left knee injury. In the locker room after the game his leg was immobilized and he was limping noticeably with a grim look on his face. It's too early to speculate, but it would appear there's a good chance he might miss some time. The line is already without right tackle Erik Pears, and his replacement, Chris Hairston, went down with an ankle injury.
• What's a Bills game without screaming about the lack of touches C.J. Spiller gets? Again, even in a game where the Bills needed to run, Spiller was on the bench as much as he was on the field, especially in the red zone. Chan Gailey said during the week he'd like to get a 60-40 split of touches in favor of Spiller. Well, Fred Jackson carried 25 times for 109 yards, and Spiller 14 for 77. That computes to 62.5 percent in Jackson's favor, but who's counting?
• Finally, in the 12th game of the season, Ryan Fitzpatrick hit T.J. Graham with a deep pass, a 51-yarder that set up the Bills' first TD. Why this took until the 12th game is one of the great mysteries of the season, but better late than never.
• Mario Williams had his most impactful play of the season, a sack/forced fumble/recovery that led to a field goal. He also had a batted down pass. No doubt he's playing much better since his wrist surgery. Hopefully he continues to soar from here for years to come.
• Rookie Ron Brooks was thrown into the fire, and he survived. The Bills played plenty of dime defense, and then Leodis McKelvin couldn't play because of a bad back, so Brooks saw his most extensive playing time. He was up and down, but it was a good learning experience for the kid and should be beneficial down the line.
• You didn't think I'd fail to mention the lunacy of allowing Rian Lindell to try a 50-yard field goal in the wind and rain, after not letting him do so last week in a dome, did you? It makes last week's decision in Indy - when the game really mattered - even more unbelievable. Oh, Lindell made the kick

Hi there. I finished the heart sweater for Maggie.
I feel like a knitting Superwoman, because it turned out just exactly how I envisioned it. Perfect in (nearly) every way.
I hesitate to point out the imperfect things, but I will for posterity. The sleeves could use about 8 more sts at the top. They are very snug, and I need to manhandle them to get her arms through.
The other thing is that I don't think she's really keen on that turtleneck. Unfortunately for her, it's not about what she thinks. It's about what I think and I think it's awesome.
On to the perfect things.
I had an intense level of patience with this knit. I ripped it back in various spots four (five, maybe?) times; I'm proud of myself for sticking with it for all that knitting, ripping, reknitting, reripping. I really wanted to see this little thing through to completion.
The colors! I love the bright hearts, and I love how the color changes produce wide stripes. I hadn't expected that. Funny thing about the colors – the yarn store only stocks these bright hues. I bought one of each (and a bunch of heather brown) and went to town.
The fit is slim, but long enough that maybe she'll wear it next year? With the tight sleeves, maybe not. Kids have big bellies and teeny tiny arms. I'm hopeful.
Sometimes yoke sweaters pucker, and although I accept that (see October sweater – slight puckering) I was really pleased that the puckers are non-existent here. I wish I had a better idea of why the yoke is so flat. Perhaps because the first decrease is placed so soon after joining? I will be experimenting with this idea.
I am writing the pattern; other folks are loving this sweater as much as I do. The pattern will include sleeves that aren't too snug, but I'm not doing anything about that turtleneck. It is much too cool. I'm considering including adult sizes. Any interest in that?
Check it on Ravelry (my project).
Queue it on Ravelry (the pattern page, for when it's ready).
(Just a thought on that pic of Maggie running. I love it more than most any picture I have taken of her, ever. It's funny, because you can't see her face. But I think it's because it really, really shows my true Maggie: running, exuberant, messy hair. I heart you, baby.)

UL/VL Hybrid
Hi everyone, this is my first post. I've been gathering parts for my next project which is to put a UL top end on a VL bottom and put it in a UL/FL type rigid chassis. For now Im just working on the engine. Has anyone done this before? I have five UL engines apart in my work shop right now plus the VL so I have lots of parts to compare. I can see that the UL cylinders need to be trimmed on the bottom to fit in the VL case and that the overall height of the UL case is taller than the VL. Is this going to cause a manifold fitting problem? Also using 74 pistons will reduce compression ratio. Any input would be appreciated, thanks... Bill
