Receive Top Dollar For Your Oil and Gas Mineral and Royalty Interest!
Before you sell your interest to another company, please give us an opportunity to beat their offer. We are very competitive and are known for paying some of the highest prices in the industry for quality mineral and royalty interests.
Mineral and Royalty Closing Process
Once you decide to sell and we agree on a price, we will handle, AT NO COST TO YOU, all of the documentation required in order to make the ownership transfer, including, deed preparation, title work, tax office notification, oil company notification and any other necessary documents that may be necessary.
The process for closing can be fairly quick once you decide to sell and we agree on a price. Following are the steps to closing the transaction:
We will email, mail or fed ex you a Mineral and Royalty Conveyance covering the interest being sold. All owners must sign the conveyance in the presence of a notary public.
Next, we check the title on the property, which many times we can do online, to assure that you own clear title and that there are no liens, judgments or other title issues. We also verify your ownership by looking at your check detail to verify the royalty decimal interest. The title check can be done in as little as 1 day depending on the location of the property.
Once the Mineral and Royalty Conveyance has been signed and the title has cleared we are ready to fund the transaction. Funding can happen in many ways including the following:
Many times, if feasible, we meet in person to exchange a check or cashier's check for the mineral and royalty conveyance.
We may have your attorney act as an intermediary by holding the signed mineral and royalty conveyance in trust and receiving payment by us. Once payment is received the attorney will forward the conveyance to us.
We may also have you fax us a copy of the signed mineral and royalty conveyance and, upon receipt, will wire the funds to your account at which time you must deliver the original signed conveyance to us via overnight mail or fed ex.
On some transactions, including our unsolicited offers, we will send a collection draft for the purchase price with the mineral and royalty conveyance. The draft should be endorsed by you and deposited, along with the signed and notarized mineral and royalty conveyance, with the collections department at your bank to be sent through for collection. Upon receipt of the draft by our bank we generally have 30 days to authorize payment on the draft. This gives us time to check the title on the property and clear up any title issues that may be involved. Once we authorize payment our bank releases the conveyance to us and sends a cashier's check back to your bank to credit your account.

High School Football
Lions look to improve efficiency on and off field this fall
by Chris Goltermann
Aside from the background setting of a football practice on a baseball field soundtracked to the distinct blare of 1980s pop music, there were more obvious signs of changes being made with Trinity Christian's program on Thursday. Almost all are among a master plan at work for Lions head football coach Chris Hanson regarding transforming the atmosphere around the program.
They foremost involve improving efficiency on and off the field in 2014. Heading into his third year at the helm, Hanson has a smaller staff and notable holes to fill among this year's starting roster.
Even with one of the GISA's largest enrollments after last year's region powers moved on to the Georgia High School Association, improving on six victories won't be easy.
In addition to losing its starting quarterback, leading rusher and leading receiver from a state-playoff team, Trinity returns only one starter from a defensive unit that held four opponents to two touchdowns or less - one of which was a shutout of rival The Heritage School that clinched the program's second straight trip to the postseason.
With numbers equally down while awaiting what should be a promising group of middle school athletes in 2015, the Lions attacked its reconditioning practices in just helmets much like a teacher on the first day of school.
Expectations and assignments covered the gamut of subjects on Thursday from responsibilities in the huddle to base offenses and defenses - each of which was clocked to the precise second by Hanson, who made the most of a temporary move in practice site due to final preparations being done to the football field turf.
Practice in full pads begins Wednesday, which will see the Lions practicing on and off from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
'Coming into the season one of our goals is to be more efficient in the way we do things,' said Hanson. 'The big thing this year is we want them to commit to what we're doing every day and to commit to the 'T.' I've been proud of the effort and the attendance all summer from them. So far, they've really buying in to what we're trying to accomplish.'
While rejoined by defensive coordinator J.P. Weaver and assistant Mark Bryan, Hanson has added former Georgia offensive lineman Bruce Sells as his other coordinator and line coach after working with Trinity's successful feeder programs.
Establishing efficiency in the preseason may seem even more important to the Lions, who won't see an opponent until their Aug. 22 opener at Terrell County.
While Trinity hasn't held scrimmages since Hanson arrived prior to the 2011 season, the win totals have increased from three to six and then six again in 2013. A bigger emphasis, however, may come in intensifying conditioning further.
'We're going to try and limit our contact in practice. Now there are definitely going to be specific times that we're going to work on tackling in practice,' Hanson said. 'It limits the potential of getting guys hurt in practice. We're doing a lot more with conditioning than we've done in the past.'
Less contact during game week is something that most NFL players - including Hanson during his 11-year career as a punter - experience during the regular season.
A roster that could come in below the 40 players the Lions had a year ago - 13 of which were seniors - isn't exactly bare. Junior Grant Hurston looked the part of a potential star quarterback in the making while the most likely frontrunner to replace graduating senior Daniel Shoates, who signed with Tuskegee.
Two more seniors moved on to college programs, with fullback/defensive lineman J.D. Farlow signing with Reinhardt and leading receiver Glen Whisby heading to Faulkner.
Senior Diego Henriquez is the lone returning starter on defense, though a most-important piece to build around. He finished with a team-high 86 tackles while adding 6 ½ sacks, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery. With all the vacancies, even his defensive coordinator said he wasn't sure where he'd line up when the season begins later this month.
Trinity, which has run a 4-3 technique in all three years under Weaver, could be forced to switch things around depending on personnel.
Meanwhile, Henriquez and Hurston are two of the only ball carriers back on offense, combining for 298 yards on 77 carries.
The return of Christian Downs should take some of the pressure off Hurston in his move to quarterback. Downs finished with 22 receptions for 326 yards and three touchdowns as a big-play receiver. Henriquez is the only other returning player who had multiple catches in 2013.
After facing Terrell, a Class AA school that went 4-6 in 2013, the non-region schedule continues with a game against Flint River, under first-year coach Josh Daher, before facing Westfield in a rematch of last year's first-round state playoff game, won by the Hornets.
A new Region 1-AAA is a mix of eight schools all coming in from different directions. Trinity, Heritage and Dominion Christian all played in 2-AAA last year, with Westminster-Augusta reassigned to 4-AAA upon reclassification.
The newcomers include three fresh faces led by Loganville Christian, which won back-to-back 11-man state championships in the now defunct Independent Christian Schools of Georgia and Alabama league.
Young Americans of Conyers went 1-9 in 8-man play while Holy Spirit enters its first varsity season of GISA football.
The remaining two teams are Bethlehem Christian (a single A GISA school in 2013) and Griffin Christian, which did not play GISA football in 2012 or 2013 after a dropoff in numbers.
'It's a bigger region and it should make for some good competition,' Hanson said. 'Obviously Heritage is always a big game. But the next opponent for us is always the most important. We'll continue to focus on one game at a time.'

GhostRider rides again and brings you this:
American companies are finding new overseas tax havens to legally protect some of their profits. Funny 'cause these companies still bitch and moan about having to pay for workers health care. What happened to give and take? Oh, they can take all right! I tell ya, American Capitalism, or more accurately, American Corporate Capitalism has become a monster of a system that in my unusually pessimistic opinion will not be reigned in. But wait, as I watched this segment I thought… It's not these companies' fault, they are in business to make money, so that means if their management, the CEOs, succeed and are smart for making moves like a Cisco working out of Ireland, then more power to them.
It all becomes clear. It's the company that's called The United States of America that is not being run successfully. Of course it isn't, how can we expect the largest and most powerful company in all of the known Universe to be run as effectively as, let's say even a Walt Disney World, when, really, a moron like Sara Palin is considered as a possible CEO of USA in 2012.
But then again, that might change. Our country's management team right now is not made up of the smartest graduates in the country much less the smartest business graduates, for God's sake, you don't even need a degree to be a politician. So let's see… 535 in Congress, our company's "headquarters," and let's add to that the 50 governors that are running our company's "50 departments." Lets' not even throw in the couple of thousand mayors running all of the little offices that makes up the 50 departments, which make up our company. What do we have? A company that's being run, managed, by a team of about 600, for arguments sake, lets call them MORONS – Hey, in any business out there that is losing the absolutely absurd amount that this one is, there is not one chance in hell that this management team would not be considered morons.
So, thinking about Sara Palin as CEO for this bunch is consistent, but all seriousness aside… How the hell can we change the structure of our organization, and make no mistake about it, without a complete reorganization of how this company is run? What we are seeing right now is only the first of many consequential waves of destruction to come. Consequential waves like the banking and home foreclosure nightmare, the unemployment rate, the losses incurred by Enron, et al,.The Wisconsin enslavement of its teachers, the Alabama mugging of retired city workers. All this can be a just the beginning.
The only way it can be changed is if we restructure the whole "management" part – somehow, we are going to have to add amendments to the constitution of morons not qualifying for elected posts. We have to take a look at the fortune 500 companies as models. As a matter of fact, just let's look at the top 3. Do their CEOs have 4, 5, 6-year degrees? Are they in business, law, finance?
Hey, enough of my gibberish, just watch this segment and it will all make sense, although I think we might be screwed: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7360932n&tag=mg;mostpopvideo
Till another time in space…

Instead ofJune 12, 2011 By TeresaDGA
Instead of doing the whole apple pie, I had some apple pie filling in the pantry and a shell in the freezer. Just wanted a topping to put on it and this one hit the spot!! Thank you very much for posting this. It turned out wonderfully. I am sure that your pie recipe is great too, but I didnt have much time to peel apples etc.

This is best apple pieDecember 05, 2008 By sk_peterson
This is the best tasting apple pie and easy to make. I do not suggest using a food processor to mix the topping. Use a fork to blend pre-chopped pieces of butter into the remaining topping ingredients. Use your hands to help mix the cold butter into the dry topping ingredients but not too much or the butter will become too soften. Also, lemon juice is important so the apples do not brown.

Great apple crispNovember 25, 2008 By packrfan2001
I made exactly according to the recipe. This was so delicous, the best crisp i've had. a little different with a crust but so good. i had a bit of filing left over so i cooked over medium heat till the apples were tender and ate just that. I made this over the weekend and decided I loved it so much i'm making one four days later for Thanksgiving to take to the family.

Fourth in a Series: This is What Effective Advertising Looks Like.
Kathryn Budig is blond (usually). She's unusually lovely—like Seane Corn, she's a yoga teacher built for American media. She's accessible, fun, friendly, down to earth—and sexy.
Particularly with her clothes off. It's news to no one that sex sells. In fact, it's advertising's oldest adage.
And so, in a crowded advertising market, Toesox (100% organic cotton, we like)—and Hard Tail, but that's another story—have doubled down on yoga and raised you sex.
Still, sexual appeal can be a turn off when your market is 85% women—it can come off as cheap, sleazy, patriarchal, shallow, frivolous—something you don't want to do with a demographic that would never call itself a demographic, but prefers community, kula, sangha.
Yoga practitioners, by and large, regard yoga as something more than exercise, and something less than religion. So it's a tricky market to win with an ad, when said market has, by and large, got mixed feelings when it comes to commercializing their practice, and consumption generally.
That's where Jasper Johal comes in. A photographer with an eye for the naked human form that goes beyond lech and harkens back to art class—to greco-roman appreciation for form and beauty—his photos capture a stillness and exertion that lies at the heart of yoga practice. He and Kathryn (and Toesox, it seems) are of their demographic—so they can go out on a limb with conventionally outrageous advertising that offends no yogi and catches the eye of every reader.
And that's…what effective advertising looks like.

The nudity in the JJ yoga images is incredible. Any group that deems them exploitation in any way just needs to get over themselves. Those images are fine art. Far too many people are just hung up and self absorbed with their PC nonsense. Truly those pics are a celebration of beauty.
I really like the toesox ads. They also make me more interested in learning about yoga. I don't see the harm in the ads. They are very grateful and not at all pornographic. The naked human form can be extremely beautiful as artists throughout time have found. Yay Toesox and Kathryn Budig! Don't let the killjoys deter your artistic creativity.
Autocorrect strikes again. That grateful should have been tasteful.
I like the toesox ads as well, though it looks like that woman has no vulva. I still would never buy toesox.
And Waylon, really, no, advertising that is just a little less porno but still limited to displaying female bodies is not "effective. Get off it. You really do need some feminist education, dude.

I heart book clubs!
Fancy Hat Literary Lunch
Memorial Day weekend 2013 I was guest at The Fancy Hat Literary Lunch, hosted by the extraordinary Jennie Blue in honor of her grandmother who loved hats and loved books. It was a lovely affair at the Ritz-Carleton on the island where Jennie's family has a long history.
Thirty or 40 of Jennie's friends and family came to the third annual lunch and were seated at tables differentiated by framed book covers, so I was at the "Amen Sisters" table. Every guest received a personalized goblet with Jennie's logo and their name on it! It was a top-notch event all the way. Jennie was a gracious and generous hostess (Having the caterer prepare a plate of hand-painted truffles for my birthday and gifting me with a beautiful crystal dish from Tiffany!).
To make my attendance a surprise for guests we arranged to Skype via phone and laptop. My picture was projected on a screen in the ballroom while I hid in a "green room" down the hall and pretended to be talking from my home in Denver. I then told the ladies that I had some beautiful flowers in bloom in my garden I wanted to show them and instead of taking them outdoors to my yard, I opened the door to the ballroom and announced that all of them in their colorful dresses and amazing hats were the beautiful flowers I had come to see.
The group had all read my second novel Children of the Waters and discussed it while I was there. Then they asked me some questions and I chatted a bit about the life of a writer and we went outside (beautiful grounds!) and took photos and I signed books.
It was big fun! But I must point out the real joy for me is knowing that there are book clubs all over this country willing to throw parties to celebrate books and readers! It is definitely balm for the writer's soul.
Want me to visit your book club?
Liked Children of the Waters? Here's my list of books on mixed-race and biracial people you might enjoy.

Getting into field takes grit, tenacity
MILES - Eli Droll said "family pride" brought him back to farming.
"I want to keep the land in the family at least one more generation, if we can," the 29-year-old Miles farmer said.
Droll grew up on his family's farm near Lowake, about 20 miles east of San Angelo.
"Like we say around here, I've been farming my whole life. I started plowing when I was 9 years old."
Droll said he "always wanted to stay in agriculture because it's what I know and love."
But after graduating from Miles High School in 1997, he left the farm to study semiconductor technology at Texas State Technical College in Sweetwater.
"Dad was always telling me, 'Do whatever you can, and get away from the farm if you can.' He didn't want to see me suffer like he did during droughts.
"In the back of my mind, I knew I couldn't do that."
Nonetheless, after earning an associate's degree, he traveled to Dallas for a job interview at a computer chip plant.
He didn't take the job.
"I figured I could come back home, be a plow hand and enjoy my life. Plus, I wouldn't have to mess with the traffic."
He began working for neighbors and saving his money. Five years ago, when his father, Dennis Droll, decided to get out of farming, Eli Droll bought his equipment.
He now farms land owned by his grandparents, Harvey Droll and Helen Wilde.
Droll, who is single, is the last member of his family to farm.
"I wanted to at least attempt it," he said. "I don't want it to die with me. I hope to have kids some day and pass it on to them. My great-grandparents were farmers who came over from Germany, and most of their land has been in our family for almost 100 years.
"I just couldn't stand someone else farming land that's been in our family for that long."
Droll leases his grandparents' farms. He said he's saving money and hopes to eventually buy the land.
For a young farmer, startup costs can be staggering.
A tractor Droll recently bought cost $118,000. The most expensive tractor his grandfather ever bought was $7,500.
An acre of farm land now can cost $1,000 or more. His grandparents paid between $50 and $100 per acre for their land when they began farming.
On the other hand, Droll pointed out that cotton prices haven't increased much since his grandfather's day.
"He got 54 cents a pound for his cotton, and I got 55. We're getting the same price for cotton that our grandfathers got."
The economics of farming have discouraged young people from entering the business, Droll said. He said he knows of only about two-dozen farmers younger than 35 in Runnels, Concho and Tom Green counties.
"You go down the road here, and every farmer will tell you, 'We told our kids not to go into it because the money's not there.'
"I felt that I had to try. Even if I went bankrupt or what have you, I needed to try."
Rising costs of "input" - everything from fuel and fertilizer to seeds and sprays - add to the challenge, Droll said. The price of diesel has tripled in the brief time he has been farming, he pointed out.
Despite the odds against him, Droll said he's succeeding - so far.
"I've been blessed with a bunch of good years. '05 was a real good year, and now this year."
However, it took all of '05 to make up for 2006, when the fields were so dry he could harvest only 10 percent of his cotton crop.
"You just cinched your belt last year. We didn't harvest hardly anything. Most of it, I either plowed under, or it never came up."
Fortunately, this year's even better than the record-breaking 2005 crops, he said.
"Every place we farmed got the rain when we needed it. It's the best year I know of, and my grandfather says the same."
Droll said he's "tickled pink" about this year's crop, but, "The problem is, you're already thinking about next year."
He said his grandfather's best advice was to "save your pennies. You never know when the good times are coming, but you always know the hard times are coming."
Despite the long hours, financial uncertainties and weather-related stress, Droll said there is no business he would rather be in than farming.
"Farming families are so tight-knit. You go through the good times and the bad times together."
He remembers, as a small boy, traveling with his mother to the field where his father was plowing so they could sit down for a family meal together.
They would all crowd into the cab of the parked tractor to eat.
"Farm life is a hard life," he said. "It's a different life, but it's a good life.
"If it's in your blood, it's in your blood."

POSTED: 8:16 a.m. HST, Dec 18, 2012
LAST UPDATED: 2:41 p.m. HST, Dec 18, 2012
WASHINGTON » Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont was sworn in today as president pro tempore of the Senate.
As the longest serving Democrat now in the Senate, Leahy moved to third place in the line of presidential succession, behind Vice President Joe Biden and House Speaker John Boehner.
Biden swore Leahy in as the successor to Hawaii Sen. Daniel Inouye in the Senate post. Inouye, who also chaired the Senate Appropriations Committee, died Monday at age 88. A vase of white roses was on Inouye's desk on the Senate floor.
"I can't tell you how much it pains me," Leahy said before being sworn in. "He was one of the greatest members of this body ever to have served, and a dear friend to so many of us."
Leahy is expected to succeed Inouye as chairman of the appropriations panel. The 72-year-old Leahy is the current chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California is expected to take over from Leahy as chairman of the Judiciary panel, a move that could boost the prospects for congressional action on gun control measures in the wake of the Newtown, Conn. school slayings. Feinstein has promised to reintroduce the expired federal ban on assault rifles.
Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., is expected to become chairman of the Select Committee on Intelligence, replacing Feinstein on that panel.
An announcement on the new chairmanships could come as soon as Wednesday.
Leahy was elected in 1974 and is serving his seventh term. He was the youngest senator to be elected in Vermont, at age 34, and is the state's longest serving senator.
A former prosecutor, Leahy has been active on criminal justice, human rights, privacy and environmental issues during his Senate career.
After the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, Leahy led the Senate's negotiations with the Bush administration on the USA Patriot Act, the sweeping anti-terrorism bill responding to the attacks. He was a strong advocate in the international campaign against the production, export and use of anti-personnel land mines, writing the first law by any government to ban the export of the mines.
Leahy was a leader in the Judiciary Committee's investigation into the mass firings of U.S. attorneys during the Bush administration.
He is also an amateur photographer. A longtime "Batman" fan, Leahy and has made cameo appearances in "Batman" films.
Leahy and his wife Marcelle Pomerleau Leahy have a daughter and two sons. They live on a tree farm in Middlesex, Vt.

SYRACUSE When asked of a timeline to name a starting quarterback on the eve of preseason camp, first-year Syracuse University football coach Scott Shafer was noncommittal.
As camp wore on, Shafer updated his timetable: Before we kick the ball off on the 31st at MetLife Stadium, we have to find out whos starting at quarterback as well as the other 10 positions on offense.
He wasnt kidding.
Shafer will finally reveal his choice to replace the graduated Ryan Nassib senior Drew Allen or sophomore Terrel Hunt when the Orange offense takes the field at todays second annual New York College Classic, against Penn State at 3:30 p.m. at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.
Both kids have done a good job working on command and control, and Ive been pleased with the way they have competed against one another and supported one another, Shafer said. I think we have got two high-character kids that have similar skill sets that we can win with either guy on the field.
On Monday, Shafer released his week one depth chart with both Allen and Hunt listed as the starter.
Later in the week, he was asked if SU could deploy a platoon system under center, like AP-ranked No. 24 Southern California intends to do. Shafer was again noncommittal and said it was a case of realism vs. idealism.
Theres going to be highs and lows, and we just have to stay steady as she goes throughout the course of the game. In the ideal world, you would like to have a Tom Brady running it and not worry about it and get the next guy ready. But in the realistic world, you have to be ready to play either/or throughout the course of the game.
He added: But they need to understand that when they go out on the field, they will make mistakes and just try to manage them as best we can, and its not the end of the world if something doesnt go well. We are not just going to pull the carpet from underneath their toes and throw the next guy in. I dont want to be in a yo-yo situation, so once we get out there, we will kind of get it going and see how she plays out.
Neither Allen nor Hunt has started a game in their respective careers, making the Orange one of 11 Football Bowl Subdivision teams in the nation entering the season in such a scenario.
Included in that group is the Nittany Lions. Second-year coach Bill OBrien has also decided not to disclose his starter – sophomore Tyler Ferguson or freshman Christian Hackenberg – until todays kickoff.
ESPN reported on Friday night that Hackenburg the second-rated passer in the class of 2013 by scouts.com will get the start. OBrien did not confirm his decision.
When the game starts, everybody will know who the starting quarterback is when its our first offensive series, OBrien said during his Big Ten conference call this week.
Both guys understand where were headed and theyve handled the whole situation fantastically, he added.
OBrien said that he would like to eventually settle on one starter, but that might not be the case in todays game.
In this game, being the first game where neither guy has played for us at all as a Penn State football player, I would say that both guys need to be ready to play.
For the Orange, Allen has been touted as a traditional pocket passer at 6-foot-5 and 230 pounds. He served as the backup to Landry Jones at the University of Oklahoma for the past three seasons and announced his intent to transfer to SU this spring. He completed 18-of-30 passes for 160 yards to go with 17 rushing yards and a touchdown in 12 games for the Sooners.
Hunt is 6-foot-3 and 220 pounds and has been billed as the more mobile of the two quarterbacks. He won the job among the incumbents during spring practice but appeared in just one game, on special teams, last year after redshirting in 2011.
Shafer said that the difference in each players skill set has been overstated. He views both as: Pretty similar guys. Theyre both big, strong kids. Both have good feet and both can run.
Whomever gets the nod will be tasked with replacing Nassib, drafted by the NFLs New York Giants in April. He set eight single-season passing records last year and holds every major SU career mark except touchdowns.

Dialogues on Freedom: Judges, Lawyers Needed to Engage High School Students in Discussions about Freedom and Its Responsibilities on October 23
"A chance to inspire young minds does not come along very often."
Join LACBA's Dialogues on Freedom to help lead a discussion in a local high school on October 23, 2013, focusing on the meaning of freedom, and conflicts between freedom and security protections in a manner to which students can relate. The program, which began in 2002 in response to the September 11, 2001 events, takes place in October to accommodate the school calendar. Produced in cooperation with the Los Angeles Unified School District and the Los Angeles Superior Court, it is an opportunity for members of the legal community to impact students in high school classes throughout Los Angeles County.
Last year, 102 volunteer lawyers and judges visited 18 LAUSD schools as well as several non-LAUSD campuses. Personal interaction with judges and lawyers can be the spark that ignites a young person's interest in pursuing a legal career. The program provides students exposure to legal professionals at schools that exemplify the diversity of Los Angeles.
"It's wonderful to connect with real students in a classroom setting
Volunteer trainings. Judges and lawyers who are interested in volunteering should fill out the online form at www.lacba.org/dialogues or e-mail your name, firm/office name, firm/office address, office phone, cell phone, and e-mail address to email@example.com.
In addition, new volunteers who wish to participate in this year's dialogues should attend one of the training sessions listed below:

Surface entities
Surface entities are a number of faces joined together to give the impression of roundness (using soft edges). Although the individual planar faces that make up a curved face set are still separate entities, they can act like a single group when selected or painted.
There are three types of surfaces, though the Entity Info dialog box will recognize each as just a Surface entity:
- Arc surface. An arc surface is generated when a face with an Arc entity has one or more of its edges extruded (usually with the Push/Pull tool).
- Cylindrical surface. A cylindrical surface is similar to an arc surface, but is generated when a circular face is extruded to form a cylinder.
- Polyface surface. A polyface surface is generated when a face with a Polyline Curve entity has one or more of its edges extruded (usually with the Push/Pull tool). You can also create one manually by softening edges with the Erase tool or using the Soften/Smooth Control. Polyface surfaces do not have special editable properties, but respond to tool operations as a single entity.
The following image contains the three types of surfaces, an arc surface, cylindrical surface, and polyface surface, from left to right.

1 Studio City Man, 1 Other Arrested For Email Hacking Nude Photos For 'Revenge Porn' Site
Top Features
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Two men were arrested Thursday morning for allegedly conspiring to hack into victims' email accounts to steal nude photos and posting them on a "revenge porn" website.
Charles Evens, 25, of Studio City and Northern California resident, 27-year-old Hunter Moore, were arrested by special agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and charged with conspiracy, seven counts of unauthorized access to a protected computer to obtain information and seven counts of aggravated identity theft, officials said.
According to the 15-count indictment, Moore operated the website isanyoneup.com, known as a "revenge porn" site, where he posted nude or sexually explicit photos of victims that were submitted without permission, according to the FBI.
"However, to obtain more photos to populate the site, Moore allegedly instructed Evens to gain unauthorized access to – in other words, to hack into – victims' e-mail accounts," US Attorney's office said in a statement. "Moore sent payments to Evens in exchange for nude photos obtained unlawfully from the victims' accounts. Moore then posted the illegally obtained photos on his website, without the victims' consent."
Both suspects are expected to make court appearances Thursday afternoon with Evens scheduled to appear in United States District Court in Los Angeles. If convicted, they face up to five years in federal prison for each of the conspiracy and computer hacking counts.
An aggravated identity theft charge carries a mandatory two-year sentence that would run consecutive to another other sentence imposed in the case.

Brits Abroad Dominate 1999 Tony Nominations
Editorial Staff • West End • 5 May 1999
Big potential homegrown winners are the National's production of Tennesee Williams' Not About Nightingales which received six nominations, including best director (Trevor Nunn), best actor (Corin Redgrave), best supporting actor (Finbar Lynch) and best revival; the Almeida Theatre's revival of The Iceman Cometh, which garnered five nominations, also including best director (Howard Davies), best actor (Kevin Spacey) and best revival; and Martin McDonagh's Lonesome West, part of the Leenane trilogy seen first in full at the Royal Court, which received four nominations, including best new play, best supporting actress (Dawn Bradfield) and, yet again, best actor (Brian O'Byrne) and best director (Garry Hynes).
In some of the leading categories, including best actor and best director, an incredible three-quarters of the nominations are for British or Irish productions. In the best new play category, Lonesome West and Not About Nightingales is battling Patrick Marber's Closer. In the best supporting actress category, Lonesome West's Bradfield is up against Claire Bloom from the Donmar Warehouse production of Electra and Samantha Bond from the National production of David Hare's Amy's View.
Two British heavyweights - Zoe Wanamaker and Oscar and Bafta-winner Judi Dench - are going head to head in the best actress category. At last year's Olivier Awards in the UK, the two were also contenders - with Wanamaker's title role in Electra and Dench's portrayal of distraught mother Esme Allen in Amy's View. On that occasion, Wanamaker took home the honours.
The Tony Awards will be announced Sunday, 6 June 1999.

Video: Ricky Martin Talks About Past Struggle to Be Sex Symbol and Gay
"What I was feeling, according to what I had in my mind, was evil," he told Jay Leno on 'The Tonight Show' referring to societal and religious expectations.
What made his early struggles with his sexuality more difficult was when he was the Ricky Martin of 'Livin' La Vida Loca' fame. "I was the sex symbol and I needed to dance and I needed to make girls crazy and I couldn't say that I was gay," he said. "It was a lot of struggle."
His coming out is more about facing his own demons and struggles, and perhaps inspiring and helping other people facing similar internal battles. So what if some people's reactions were "Yeah, what's new"? According to Martin, "it is about what I was feeling."

- Wednesday 04 MayBy Mike
They do announce it, anytime they hold hands, put up a photo at work, smile lovingly. Since many gay people can't do those little things without ramification, it's probably easier to just "announce" it and be done with it.
Besides, with the media constantly hounding celebrities, they either need to live a lie or "announce" it and move on.

New release of the Materials for Medical Devices Database
CAMBRIDGE, England and CLEVELAND, Sept. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- ASM International and Granta Design today announced substantial enhancement to the only materials database created specifically for medical device design. The expanded resource, demonstrated at this week's Materials and Processes for Medical Devices (MPMD) Conference and Exposition in Palm Desert, CA, now helps designers of spinal implants research predicate devices and gain valuable insights in product development. The initial database module supporting cardiovascular device design has also been significantly enhanced.
The new 'Materials for Medical Devices Database: Orthopaedic Module' initially focuses on spinal implants. The module establishes records for nearly 1,200 devices for spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis, spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis, and pedicle screw spinal systems. Records are being continuously built out to include information on device applications and constituent materials, drugs, and coatings. Each material, drug, or coating is linked to further records providing data on mechanical and engineering properties, materials producers, and specific material grades, enabling device designers to rapidly acquire information to support device design, materials screening, and various regulatory filings. Future releases will extend coverage into other orthopaedic applications.
Over 1,600 additional device records have been established in the existing 'Materials for Medical Devices Database: Cardiovascular Module', the authoritative source of mechanical, physical, biological response, and drug compatibility properties for the materials and coatings used in cardiovascular device applications. Records for key materials have been updated.
With the Materials for Medical Devices Database, device designers
benefit from rapid access to authoritative sources of engineering data,

Freshman triplets stay close, keep distance

From left, Victoria, Alexis and Dana Stecker.
You're seeing triplets. And you're not alone, as many across campus have made the same double-take at the sisterly trifecta.
Meet Alexis, Dana and Victoria Stecker, newly arrived Binghamton University freshmen.
Sidle up. Say hello. Just don't let them hear you say the "T" word.
They love each other, sure. Yet they bristle at the natural comparisons. They want to be together — just not too close. For them, being sisters is a defining force. Being triplets is exhausting.
The Stecker sisters are the second set of "Ts" to grace this campus is recent memory. The Frechette brothers — Louis, Wesley and Samuel — graduated in 2002. University officials aren't aware of any other triplets, since no specific tracking system exists for recalling such connections.
So the Steckers from Syosset, quite likely the first female Binghamton triple play, look at their BU experience as a fresh start. Each wants her own experience and new horizon.
But each, too, wants a view of her sister's vista, only from a cozy distance. It's been this way for a while.
Alexis, Dana and Victoria look enough alike, sound a lot alike and maybe even at times think alike. But their individual idiosyncrasies quickly bubble to the surface. Alexis is the spokes-sister. She's demanding and a chatty Cathy. She's a mother hen.
Dana acts youngest of the three, coming off on the shy side. Belying that timidity, though, she's also most protective of the sisterhood.
Vicky is laid back, ever observing. While Dana's on guard and Alexis pipes up, Vicky, described by her sisters as "naturally smart," absorbs it all.
And Alexis has direction, even as she cuts off one sister.
"If I see a goal, I'll go out and get it," she said, interrupting Dana, who doesn't mind.
Said Dana, laughing: "We tend to finish each other's sentences."
This ultra-familiarity is a large part of why Dana knew she wasn't ready to cut strings just yet. Being at Binghamton, the sisters agreed, is a gradual segue.
"This is a transition where I see them, but I don't see them every day," said Dana. "This is like a stepping stone."
"I came to college to become my own person and find my own goals," reiterated Vicky.
The sisters all live in College-in-the-Woods, but in separate buildings.
"As much as we love each other, we need a year or two to have a vacation from each other," said Dana, mentioning that the three shared a bedroom their entire lives before moving onto campus.
In considering where to attend college, the Steckers didn't all initially agree on coming to Binghamton. But reality eventually set in for Alexis.
"When it came down to tuition and realizing I would be away from my sisters for months, I couldn't," she said, mentioning that the longest they'd ever been separated was a month during a summer teen tour. "We're best friends. I'm really happy to be here now. I'd say this is the best school for me."
As the sisters search for separate selves, having divergent career goals helps.
Alexis said law school is in her future. Dana hopes for a job in industrial psychology. And because she loves children, Vicky is looking ahead to teaching in some capacity.
And Binghamton University affords the threesome a social proving ground they've never really had.
"We think it's ridiculous when twins dress alike," said Alexis. "We hated dressing alike, and our parents knew we hated it.
"And some teachers would group us together. We absolutely hate being grouped as the triplets," she said. "If we're in the same class we become very competitive, but if we're not, then we encourage each other to work hard."
For payback to teachers who'd treat them as one entity, the sisters played the usual pranks, they said. In third grade Dana and Alexis got away with switching spots in class. The next year Vicky and Dana tried it, but got snagged.
All in all, being together so much has had its advantages. At Syosset High, for example, they were a triple threat on the school's debate team, competing together, but against one another as well. When Alexis emerged as the state championship-caliber debater, her sisters went along to Albany as her cheering squad.
They agreed that despite occasionally cringing at their situation, they've learned from experiences like that to always have one another's backs.
As college freshmen, they speak every day and they keep no secrets, they said. Binghamton is opening new doors for them and creating space that never before existed.
The Steckers are a team, but they're also on their own. And they wouldn't have it any other way.

DENVER -- Dallas Stars winger Steve Ott, who has missed six games because of a hip injury, went through another full practice on Thursday and is set to return for Friday's game at Colorado.
In advance of that move, the Stars activated Ott from the injured-reserve list. Winger Adam Burish (hand) went on the list.
Ott will come back in a different spot than anticipated.
Coach Glen Gulutzan had planned on plugging Ott into Burish's spot on a line with Brenden Morrow and Mike Ribeiro. Gulutzan changed his thinking and will use Ott with Jamie Benn and Michael Ryder. Loui Eriksson moves to the Ribeiro-Morrow line.
Gulutzan made the return Eriksson on the right side, where he has been effective in recent seasons. The move allows allows Ott to play on the left side, his natural spot.
"It's easier to have them in their positions, and it gives us some balance," Gulutzan said.
Kari Lehtonen will start at Colorado, with backup Andrew Raycroft in line for Saturday's home game against San Jose.
Defenseman Philip Larsen is also likely to play on Saturday. Larsen, brought back from the American Hockey League this week when defenseman Alex Goligoski went on the injured-reserve list, appeared in the first three games of the regular season, averaging 13:31 of playing time.

STILLWATER — With Mike Gundy taking himself out of this year's coaching carousel following flirtations with Tennessee and Arkansas, the focus for Oklahoma State now turns to offensive coordinator Todd Monken and his potential opportunities to become a head coach.
Oklahoma State football: Five schools that might be a good fit for Todd Monken
Monken has made it clear that's his ultimate goal. And he's a legitimate candidate after directing a Cowboy offense that remained potent in 2012 despite losing two first-round draft picks in Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon, needing three starting quarterbacks and several injuries on that side of the ball.
But Monken's not going to leave Stillwater for just any head coaching job. It must pay more than the handsome $600,000 salary he makes at OSU, and provide him with a realistic chance to win and continue to move up the coaching ladder.
Of course, the coaching dominoes have not finished falling, as more jobs will come open as others are filled. But here are five current vacancies for which Monken would be a good fit.
Louisiana Tech
The Bulldogs certainly like their offense — and have already mastered the Air Raid system that Monken runs at OSU. Under former coach Sonny Dykes, who took the Cal job last week, Tech led the nation in scoring with more than 51 points per game. Monken also spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Tech from 2000-01. This is a program that spent time ranked in the top 25 this season and paid Dykes $760,000.
Texas Tech
Of course, Texas Tech has been a hub for the Air Raid spread for more than a decade, and Tech watched Monken's version shred the Red Raiders for 66 and 59 points the past two years. Additionally, Monken's familiarity with the Big 12 and the recruiting grounds in Texas could make him an attractive candidate.

"We met a couple of days ago, Tuesday, about 40 childrens organizations, and we started talking about what are the needs? And one of the key things that came out is basic needs right now. There isn't enough food. So, we're having it here at the Food Bank, because we need people to donate food. We need people to understand that there are kids that aren't getting what they need right now in regards to nutrition."
Sanborn says as a community, it's important that children, especially those living in poverty are fed.
"They're not being fed right now, because most of their healthy meals come from the schools, from that school breakfast and that school lunch. That's not happening now. We need to get their routine back to normal, get them back into the school."
The Houston Food Bank had broken windows and flooded offices after Hurricane IKE blew over, but volunteers quickly came together to minimize any disruption. Brian Greene, Houston Food Bank President and CEO, says there are an estimated 83-thousand children in Houston who go hungry every day.
"After Hurricane IKE, the problem is their ranks have been joined by many, many more. Households that were otherwise doing fine, have now in many cases, had a week to week and a half with no paycheck --ξhow are those kids going to get fed is the big question."
Doctor Martha Salazar-Zamora, assistant superintendent for the HISD, says schools are slowly re-opening once power is restored.
"We currently have, out of approximately 300 schools, we have 202 that are open, and we are really waiting for electricity for the remaining schools to come online, and just to let the community know that the workers that we have, the counselors, the psychologists, the social workers, are there and ready and willing and able to assist them because of the storm."
Betsy Schwartz, President and CEO of Mental Health America of Greater Houston says any semblance of normalcy will help the kids recover quicker.
"We know that children may internalize what they're feeling and may not be as vocal as parents or teachers. It's really important for parents or teachers, or other caregivers to notice any changes in behavior."
Schwartz says mental health needs that are paid attention to early on have less of a chance of creating more severe problems later.

My Famous Last Meal
In its most recent issue, the National Post published the above infographic of the last meals of the famously departed. According to the publication, "'Last Meals' charts its eponymous subject matter on an x-axis of fanciness and a y-axis of caloric content." Based on the lifestyles each celebrity lived, there are few surprises…especially considering each last meal was likely not intended to be their last meal.
The data and chat of delicious food got me thinking, though — if I was blessed enough to know what my last meal would be, what would I choose? Would it be a gigantic bowl of ice cream and cookies, like Elvis Presley? Would I choose something a little more indulgent like Marilyn's meatballs and Dom Perignon?
Of course, this is my last meal. Though I've been battling a thousand or so food allergies for most my life (dairy, eggs, gluten, red meat, and lamb, just to name a few….) that probably won't matter if I'm not going to be around for more than a few hours. It also probably won't matter if I consume a few thousand calories, even though I'm currently counting my calories (well, on most days.) So, I'm just going to pretend that I can eat gluten, and cheese and consume thousands of calories like it just won't matter.
I'm going to pretend that…I can eat all I want of my mother's homemade lasagna. Because if I had it my way, that would be my last meal.
My mom's homemade lasagna isn't your average lasagna. I'm really not sure how she makes it. I was terrible about watching her cook while I was growing up — she never followed a recipe, instead just throwing "a little bit of this, a little bit of that" together based on her intrinsic knowledge of my grandmother's cooking to put together night after night of comfort food. The lasagna was rich in sauce, gooey with layers of cheese and pasta and yet still somewhat crunchy. (The slices from the edges of the pan were my favorite. Weird, I know.) Maybe it was because she knew how to make it and bake it in a way that no one else does.
Maybe it's because it was baked with a little bit of love.
So of course, if I also get to have my way, I'd share a pan (and lots of red wine) with her if I only had minutes or hours left to live. (Morbid, I know….but we're all going to be there someday.) I'd want to tell her everything I've never said, maybe apologize for a thing or too I'm still to stubborn to say, and go down with an epic dinner shared with the one person who knows me best. I'd want her to be able to tell my story, because if I can't keep talking, I'd want someone else to do it for me.
Hopefully over that same famous homemade lasagna.

Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston did win the Heisman Trophy, after all. With 13 seconds remaining -- after a critical pass interference call on Auburn cornerback Chris Davis -- Winston hit wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin for a game-winning two-yard touchdown. The Seminoles reclaimed the lead and beat the Tigers 34-31 to capture the final championship of the BCS era. Winston didn't turn in his best game, but he came through when it counted. Auburn made a habit of winning late this season, but even the Tigers and their late-game heroics couldn't outlast the undefeated 'Noles. Winston finished 20-of-35 for 237 passing yards and two scores. Farewell, BCS. Good night, sweet prince. Promoted Stories Comments

When converting a 4 lug drum (69--) to a 5 lug drum (58'-68'), what needs to be done?
I heard that a spacer needs to be used when using 5 lug drums on an IRS, but not sure what size spacer and/or where it goes. I know the 4 lugs can be re drilled for 5 lug but don't want to fork over that much cash if its not needed.
I also heard that thing drums were 5 lug IRS, and bolt right up without any mods needing to be done, but are also very hard to find.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Tuesday's print coverage: Ducks work on rebounding, shot selection, etc., for Texas Southern
From Tuesday's print edition:
The sun came up Sunday morning for Oregon men's basketball coach Dana Altman and the Ducks — "just barely," he said — after a disappointing loss to San Jose State on Saturday, and the Ducks had an upbeat practice Monday in preparation for today's 7 p.m. tipoff against Texas Southern.
"Game's over," Altman said of Saturday's 75-72 loss. "I sulked for about 24 hours and then it's time to go again. You can't change that, you've just got to correct and move on and get better.
"It's a long season. I try not to beat the guys up. They feel bad about it, I feel bad about it, but we sat in film for a long time today and pointed out a lot of things, and we addressed them."
Altman said he didn't sleep much Saturday night, though there isn't much sleep during the season anyway. After losses, he watches TV, or old game film, saving video of the loss for the next day.
"I know if I watch it that night, I'm done," Altman said. "If I do that, then I got no chance. Done it long enough to know that."
The Ducks watched the game film as a team Monday, before practice.
"We missed a lot of box-outs, and turnovers down the stretch," Oregon senior Joevan Catron said. "They're things we can definitely control. I think as the season goes along we'll eliminate those mistakes."
Rebounding had been a priority for the Ducks, and better shot selection has become that.
"It was disappointing because the things we identified as important to get done we just didn't do," Altman said, noting similar problems in the three games Oregon won. "There were certain things we wanted to do in each of those ball games, and we didn't do them."

Dell XPS XPS14-3636sLV reviews
The Dell XPS 14-3636sLV is designed to deliver exceptionally long battery life, comes with powerful Intel® Core™ processors in an ultrathin form and is supported by America's Best Protection.
It's a design that goes beyond beauty. Your XPS 14 Ultrabook is less than 1 inch (20.7mm) thin, built for maximum portability. Machined aluminum, bonded Corning® Gorilla® Glass and a silicone base are designed to bring you an experience that's premium in every way.With up to 11 hours of battery life and a backlit keyboard, the ultra-thin XPS 14 Ultrabook is built to keep pace with your busy life.
Why wait? The XPS 14 Ultrabook™ boots up to 33 percent faster than a regular hard drive and resumes in less than 2 seconds. A solid-state drive and Intel® Rapid Start Technology make it possible. Inspired by Intel.With performance-class graphics and a 14" HD (high-definition) + (900p) display with 400-nit brightness, the XPS 14 Ultrabook delivers a viewing experience you'll have to see to believe.With new Intel® Core™ processors, Windows® 8 and 8GB of memory, the XPS 14 Ultrabook delivers the speed and performance you've come to expect from the XPS family.
I searched a lot of sites and reviews before finally deciding on getting the XPS 14 and I was not disappointed.It is solid, fast and with Windows 8, it is even more fast and presents an enjoyable experience. It is also very solid and stable and you can see the materials used are top quality. It is really good.The battery life is around 7 - 9 hours of regular use and it boots and shuts down in 7-10 seconds. Really quick. This can be due to to SSD portion of the drive and also Windows 8.And it is heavier than the average ultrabook but hey, it is loaded with heavy materials and content.Dell confirmed they had fixed the wifi issue but I still experience some disconnections to the wifi once in a while. Not really good though.
It can also get a little hot sometimes.
On the whole, I think it is one of the best notebooks I have used yet. It is fast, solid, intuitive, and almost perfect and I wil recommend it to everyone if you can ignore the minor flaws.It is a good buy for me ad I think it is a real competitor to the MacBook Pro (but not in display).

Although I love frozen treats on a hot day, eating too many can be unhealthy. Therefore turning to fruit during the summer season is always a good idea. I used to hate fruit. In fact, up until college, the only fruit I ate were apples. I hated everything else. I'm happy to say I have greatly expanded my fruit horizons. There are still some I don't like but I'm always willing to test my taste buds and try something new. I ate my first orange a couple weeks ago and I liked it. So, I clearly have a lot of reasons to be proud of myself.
To honor this delicious and healthy treat, I have put together some beautiful and inspiring works of art made up entirely of fruit. If these don't make you want to eat a fruit salad I don't know what will. Do you have a favorite fruit?
