One of a select few chosen by National Car Rental to express his views on "What it takes to be No. 1," legendary Green Bay Packers coach Vince Lombardi composed a telling, heartfelt message that the corporation proudly used to hawk its own product. Offered here is a signed copy of one such ad. Housed in a 11-1/8" x 14-1/8" frame, this cream-colored page features the above-mentioned heading and a cameo image of the Hall of Fame mentor. In plain text, Lombardi's beliefs are printed below the subtitled "You've got to pay the price" doctrine. At the conclusion, the "NATIONAL CAR RENTAL" logo appears—as does Lombardi's black ink signature ("10" strength). The item shows apparent EX/MT quality, with no creases or tears. In the frame, as well, is another version of the ad. Subtitled "You've got to hang in there," this particular display (not signed) details how Baltimore quarterback Earl Morrall emerged from obscurity to lead the 1968 Colts to the championship contest. LOA from Steve Grad & Zach Rullo/PSA DNA.

Arsenology: Three Gunners Wide
For most, Fantasy Football is a study in the methods used to reap the biggest points return for ample use of funds allotted. Supporting a particular club sees a conflict of interest arise as most fans subconsciously pick players from their clubs as the building blocks of their fantasy squad. But some fans must learn to remove themselves form such methods of team selection as hoards of Wolves, West Ham and Liverpool fans long to pick players from their respective clubs. But the fact that their sides are absolute shite this season make doing so rather difficult and, mellow-dramatically, heartbreaking.
Here at The Gaffer's Corner, we revel in exercises like these. As for Gooner Talk, supporting Arsenal makes including some Gunners in your fantasy squad less of a challenge. Rules limit the selection to just three players from each club. But picking the best three can often be troublesome, while maximising the value for money can be a headache in itself.
To begin we'll start by evaluating the productivity of each position. We needn't go far into looking at how risky selecting one of Arsenal's goalkeepers can be at this point. Manuel Almunia has rightfully been rubbished, but Fabianski is making a case for Arsene Wenger not buying another 'keeper in January. His performances of late have been mildly impressive, but his decision-making isn't the best as reward seems to often outweigh the risk for the Polish stopper.
Defense has been another inconsistent realm for The Gunners. The loss of Thomas Vermaelen has certainly been felt, but that shouldn't take away from the fact that Sebastian Squillaci has managed to kind of impress in Vermaelen's absence, kind of. The enigma that is the Arsenal defense should be enough to turn even the most diehard Gooner away from selecting any of the Arsenal defense for their side. Consistency is the main problem while clean-sheets have been hard to come by, though three in the last five matches isn't a poor return.
You don't need to look far to see that Arsenal's strong point is in both strikers and attacking-midfielders.
Andrei Arshavin is the top midfielder for The Gunners at the moment, but his £9.4M price-tag is mildly excessive. Case in point, there are eleven midfielders who have accumulated higher points-totals than The Pixie, but are also valued at a lower price, some up to £3.8M less.
Samir Nasri is perhaps more enigmatic, having accumulated fifty-one points after making ten appearances this season. He earns 5.10 points-per-appearance while having a value of 6.71 points-per-£M. Compared to Arshavin's 4.31 points-per-appearance and 5.96 points-per-£M, Nasri is not greatly better, but slightly and just enough. Plus, signing Nasri will leave you with £1.8M left in your pocket and that can be more valuable down the line than having Arshavin's extra five points.
Surprisingly, Alex Song is probably the other better midfield player for Arsenal. Earning forty-seven total-points this season to date means he has a 3.92 point-per-appearance return with a value of 8.54 points-per-£M. His low price and moderate return is exacerbated by the fact that talismanic midfielder Cesc Fabregas has recorded just forty-four points this season, while being valued at nearly twice the price of Song.
When it comes to Arsenal's most productive player, it's really no surprise that Marouane Chamakh is in a league of his own. The Gunners' top goal-scorer–with five–has featured in all of Arsenal's matches this season, and sees a point return of 4.77 points-per-appearance. His value hasn't risen too much since the start of the season thanks to some mildly inconsistent performances, but that's likely a good thing as he's more affordable despite his positive outings. His £8.4M price-tag is justified when his value (7.38 points-per-£M) is compared other strikers above him, Dimitar Berbatov comes in at 7.11 and Carlos Tevez with 6.27.
The given trio of Arsenal players have managed twelve goals between them and have created six others. Their total price tag of £21.5M isn't horrendously expensive and a fairly reasonable amount to pay for three players who have earned a collective 160-points this season. Compare that to a side built on the back of Dider Drogba (£13.0M) or Carlos Tevez (£11.0M) and you'd be lucky to even find comparable returns as a unit.

Now that he's gotten us talking about the viral life of ideas and the power of gut reactions, Malcolm Gladwell poses a more provocative question in Outliers: why do some people succeed, living remarkably productive and impactful lives, while so many more never reach their potential? Challenging our cherished belief of the "self-made man," he makes the democratic assertion that superstars don't arise out of nowhere, propelled by genius and talent: "they are invariably the beneficiaries of hidden advantages and extraordinary opportunities and cultural legacies that allow them to learn and work hard and make sense of the world in ways others cannot." Examining the lives of outliers from Mozart to Bill Gates, he builds a convincing case for how successful people rise on a tide of advantages, "some deserved, some not, some earned, some just plain lucky."
Outliers can be enjoyed for its bits of trivia, like why most pro hockey players were born in January, how many hours of practice it takes to master a skill, why the descendents of Jewish immigrant garment workers became the most powerful lawyers in New York, how a pilots' culture impacts their crash record, how a centuries-old culture of rice farming helps Asian kids master math. But there's more to it than that. Throughout all of these examples--and in more that delve into the social benefits of lighter skin color, and the reasons for school achievement gaps--Gladwell invites conversations about the complex ways privilege manifests in our culture. He leaves us pondering the gifts of our own history, and how the world could benefit if more of our kids were granted the opportunities to fulfill their remarkable potential. --Mari Malcolm
Outliers seems, initially, to be an inadvisable pairing of author and subject. Malcolm Gladwell, staff writer for that august cultural magazine, The New Yorker, and author of two exemplary pop-science bestsellers, The Tipping Point and Blink, goes and writes a book on success – thus entering a subgenre whose foul-smelling precincts are overrun with charlatans, profiteers, and New Age fakirs. But, happily for him and us, he's skirted ignominy by having written not some exhortative how-to guide, but a sober and far-ranging investigation of human achievement that rebuts some received wisdom on the subject. Gladwell begins by arguing that those "self-made" individuals we romanticize, who come from nothing and rise to the pinnacle of their chosen vocations on merit alone, simply don't exist. Instead, he insists, high achievers "are invariably the beneficiaries of hidden advantages and extraordinary opportunities and cultural legacies" that ultimately determine their status. Moreover, these same people who capitalize on their early good luck work much harder than their rivals; mastery in any calling, apparently, only arrives after 10,000 hours of training and study (a rather less appealing prospect than the wish-yourself-wealthy-and-fabulous strategy promulgated by The Secret). While it's hardly a revelation that toil and connections and serendipity beget professional reward, Gladwell provides a surfeit of curious, even alarming, examples to prop up his thesis. In the course of his discussion, we learn that 40% of elite hockey players are born between January and March; that off-the-chart geniuses, collectively, accomplish no more in life than their randomly sampled peers; that contentious and irreverent flight crews are less likely to crash planes than deferential ones; that Asian students' excellence in mathematics owes much to rice-based agriculture. Gladwell's writing is clear and colloquial throughout, and his chapters are deftly structured, each one introducing new material while simultaneously reiterating and amplifying what came before. But after plowing through the dramatic anecdotes and gee-whiz factoids, adult readers are left to contend with the desolating assertion that the quality of their lives was determined decades ago by ancestral migration patterns or a summertime birthday or skipped piano lessons. In the end, I was yearning for some consoling piffle about, say, dream analysis or Mayan numerology, to convince me, however briefly, that the world could still be mine for the taking.See all Product Description

Dining Out: North state classic, Piemont, heads south to Palo Cedro as Piemonte
A beloved north state restaurant has opened an outpost in the Redding area, bringing a delicious mix of old family recipes, decades of experience and a youthful enthusiasm.
The Piemonte Italian Bistro quietly opened last month on Deschutes Road in Palo Cedro. The owners are veterans of the popular Piemont Italian restaurant in Mount Shasta, a culinary landmark for 70-plus years. Troy Gerding is the great-grandson of founder Josephine Regis. His business partner, Jenny-Jo Turner, has worked at the Piemont for 17 years.
"Now people don't have to drive to Mount Shasta for (Piemont) raviolis," said Troy Gerding's son Joshua, 26, manager of the Palo Cedro bistro. "I'm fifth generation," he noted proudly of his 13 years at the Mount Shasta restaurant.
As the word "bistro" implies, the place is tiny – just four small tables. "We wanted a small feel," said Gerding. Accordion music and red-and-white check wallpaper give it a festive feel.
About 70 percent of orders are takeout. The response thus far has been "huge," said Gerding.
Orders come with a choice of salad or the Piemont's trademark minestrone soup.
Why Palo Cedro? Co-owner Turner said its landscape and small-town feel bring to mind her native Georgia.
My Portabella mushroom raviolis were tasty. One of my dining companions raved about her gluten-free spaghetti with artichoke pesto. "This is rich," she said between bites. Her husband gave a thumbs up to his spaghetti with homemade meat balls.
Note: No beer and wine until January and no dessert on the menu as yet.
Call ahead for reservations – and to order the roasted rosemary chicken, a specialty of Turner's. She learned Italian-American cooking from Troy Gerding's mother, Judi Cottini.
"It falls off the bone," said Turner of her chicken dish, which is basted with wine and fresh herbs. Sounds yummy. Think I'll try that next time I visit.

Federal Communications Commission
Washington, D.C. 20554In re Application of
Facility I.D. Nos. 26470, 26471
Hayco Broadcasting, Inc.)
NAL/Acct. Nos. MB201241410051,
For Renewal of License for
Stations WCSM(AM),WCSM-FM
File Nos. BR-20120530AJO, BRH-
Celina, Ohio
NOTICE OF APPARENT LIABILITY FOR FORFEITUREAdopted: December 3, 2012
Released: December 4, 2012By the Chief, Audio Division, Media Bureau:
The Media Bureau ("Bureau") has before it the applications of Hayco Broadcasting, Inc.,
("Licensee") for renewal of its licenses for Stations WCSM(AM) and WCSM-FM, Celina, Ohio
("Stations"). In this Memorandum Opinion and Order and Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture
("NAL"),1 we find that Licensee apparently willfully and repeatedly violated Section 73.3526 of the
Rules2 by failing to retain all required documentation in the Stations' public inspection files. Based upon
our review of the record before us, we conclude that Licensee is apparently liable for a monetary
forfeiture in the amount of ten thousand dollars per station, for a total amount of twenty thousand dollars
Section 73.3526 of the Rules requires a commercial broadcast licensee to maintain a
public inspection file containing specific types of information related to station operations. The purpose
of this requirement is to provide the public with timely information about the station at regular intervals
throughout the license period.3 Among the materials required for inclusion in the file are the station's
quarterly issues/programs lists, which must be retained until final Commission action on the station's next
license renewal application.4
Section III, Item 3 of the license renewal application form, FCC Form 303-S, requests
that the licensee certify that the documentation required by Section 73.3526, has been placed in the
station's public inspection file at the appropriate times. Licensee answered "No" to that certification and
1 This NAL is issued pursuant to Sections 309(k) and 503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended
("Act"), and Section 1.80 of the Commission's rules ("Rules"). See 47 U.S.C. §§ 309(k), 503(b); 47 C.F.R. § 1.80.
The Bureau has delegated authority to issue the NAL under Section 0.283 of the Rules. See 47 C.F.R. § 0.283.
2 See 47 C.F.R. § 73.3526.
3 Cf. Letter to Kathleen N. Benfield, 13 FCC Rcd 4102 (MMB 1997), citing License Renewal Applications of
Certain Commercial Radio Stations, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 8 FCC Rcd 6400 (MMB 1993).
4 See 47 C.F.R. 73.3526(e)(12).
Federal Communications Commission
attached an Exhibit to its applications explaining that issues/programs lists for the fourth quarter of 2004,
through the fourth quarter of 2006 were missing from each of the Stations' public files.5 Licensee also
states that all such reports were properly prepared and placed in the respective public inspection files, but
subsequently were inadvertently removed, and that it has not been able to locate all of the missing
documents.6 Licensee also states that it has a history of compliance with the Commission's Rules, and
that it aired programming that was responsive to the community's interests.7
Proposed Forfeiture. As Licensee has acknowledged, during periods within the license
term, the Station's public inspection file did not contain many of the items required to be retained in the
file by Section 73.3526 of the Rules. In this regard, where lapses occur in maintaining the public file,
neither the negligent acts or omissions of station employees or agents, nor the subsequent remedial
actions undertaken by the licensee, excuse or nullify a licensee's rule violation.8
Under Section 503(b)(1)(B) of the Act, a person who is found to have willfully or
repeatedly failed to comply with any provision of the Act or any rule, regulation, or order issued by the
Commission shall be liable to the United States for a forfeiture penalty.9 Section 312(f)(1) of the Act
defines willful as "the conscious and deliberate commission or omission of [any] act, irrespective of any
intent to violate" the law.10 The legislative history to Section 312(f)(1) of the Act clarifies that this
definition of willful applies to both Sections 312 and 503(b) of the Act,11 and the Commission has so
interpreted the term in the Section 503(b) context.12 Section 312(f)(2) of the Act provides that "[t]he term
'repeated,' when used with reference to the commission or omission of any act, means the commission or
omission of such act more than once or, if such commission or omission is continuous, for more than one

establish a base forfeiture amount of $10,000 for violation of the public file rule.14 In determining the
appropriate forfeiture amount, we may adjust the base amount upward or downward by considering the
factors enumerated in Section 503(b)(2)(D) of the Act, including "the nature, circumstances, extent and

gravity of the violation, and, with respect to the violator, the degree of culpability, any history of prior
offenses, ability to pay, and such other matters as justice may require."15
In this case, although Licensee has admitted to violating Section 73.3526, it did so only in
the context of the question contained in its license renewal applications that compelled such disclosure.
Moreover, the violations were extensive, occurring over a two year span from 2004 through 2006, and
involving at least 9 issues-programs lists at each station. We find that no reduction for Licensee's history
of compliance with the Rules is warranted here, because the violations occurred at two co-owned stations.
Where stations are commonly owned, findings of violations at one station negate the history of
compliance of the other stations.16 Considering the record as a whole, we believe that a proposed
forfeiture in the base amount of $10,000 per station is appropriate for the 73.3526 violations in this case.17
License Renewal Application. In evaluating an application for license renewal, the
Commission's decision is governed by Section 309(k) of the Act.18 That Section provides that if, upon
consideration of the application and pleadings, we find that: (1) the station has served the public interest,
convenience, and necessity; (2) there have been no serious violations of the Act or the Rules; and (3)
there have been no other violations which, taken together, constitute a pattern of abuse, we are to grant
the renewal application.19 If, however, the licensee fails to meet that standard, the Commission may deny
the application – after notice and opportunity for a hearing under Section 309(e) of the Act – or grant the
application "on terms and conditions that are appropriate, including a renewal for a term less than the
maximum otherwise permitted."20
We find that Licensee's apparent violations of Section 73.3526 of the Rules do not
constitute "serious violations" warranting designation for evidentiary hearing. Moreover, we find no
evidence of violations that, when considered together, evidence a pattern of abuse.21 Further, we find that
the Stations served the public interest, convenience, and necessity during the subject license term. We

16See Opus Broadcasting Tallahassee, LLC, Forfeiture Order, 27 FCC Rcd 11154, 11155-56 (MB 1012)
(simultaneous finding of violations at four commonly owned stations negates the history of compliance at each
station); see also Media Associates, Inc., Forfeiture Order, 26 FCC Rcd 3703, 3705 (MB 2011) (rejecting argument
that station's history of compliance deserved a reduction of the monetary forfeiture because the Bureau had issued a

inept and negligent manner and that the licensee is either incapable of correcting or unwilling to correct the
operating deficiencies." See Heart of the Black Hills Stations, Decision, 32 FCC 2d 196, 198 (1971). Nor do we
find on the record here that "the number, nature and extent" of the violations indicate that "the licensee cannot be
relied upon to operate [the station] in the future in accordance with the requirements of its licenses and the
Commission's Rules." Id. at 200. See also Center for Study and Application of Black Economic Development,

forfeiture proceeding if there are no issues other than the apparent violation that would preclude grant of
the application.

Opening: William Eggleston @ Gagosian Gallery, Beverly HillsJuxtapoz // Thursday, September 27, 2012
William Eggleston is a photographer that triumphs capturing the everyday (influenced by the greats that shortly preceded him like Henry Cartier-Bresson who coined the term the decisive moment). In this exhibition of photographs from the Los Alamos series, Eggleston captured his immediate surroundings while driving across the United States between 1966 and 1974.

We were quite honored to have Gus Van Sant featured in our March 2011 issue of the magazine, and it is good timing that he has a collaborative show with Academy Award co-host and actor/writer/artist, James Franco. The exhibition, Unfinished, stems from Van Sant and Franco's time spent on the set of Milk and Van Sant opening the vaults to his My Own Private Idaho dailies to Franco. More after the jujmp . . .

Russia is a country that boasts rich cultural heritage. There's absolutely no surprise that Russian museums are considered to be at the top of the league both in terms of amplitude and in terms of variety of their collections. The State Hermitage and Pushkin Museums represent the classical side to Russian artistic treasuries, while Erarta gallery possesses a wide range of works by contemporary artists. Beside these landmarks you will find plenty of local-bread museums dedicated to topics as varied as folklore and the World War II, 1917th Revolution and Russia's favorite national alcoholic drink, vodka. One thing is certain - you won't be disappointed. Our award-winning agency is here to provide you with the best guides and specially arranged excursions, such as entrance 'before hours' to the Hermitage and a four-hour tour in this flamboyant depository of art with the museum's curator. Read below brief descriptions of Russia's biggest and most unusual museums:
Moscow Museums
The State Historical Museum
Located in the very center of Moscow just opposite St. Basil's Cathedral, the State Historical Museum is the biggest museum of its kind. Its vast collection covers the history of Russia from ancient times to modern days.The Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts
Founded at the beginning of the 20th century it was the first museum of fine arts in Moscow. Nowadays it remains the largest museum of its kind in the Russian capital. Its collection includes top works by Van Gogh, Picasso, Gauguin, and Matisse.Tretiakov Gallery
The gallery is the major depository of Russian fine art and an absolute must-see when traveling to Moscow. It contains works by the most prominent Russian artists, from Kazimir Malevich's "Black Square" to Andrei Rublev's "Trinity" and attracts thousands of visitors each year.The Mikhail Bulgakov Museum
The museum was established in 2007 and is considered the first and the only memorial museum in Russia, dedicated to the life and work of the outstanding Soviet writer, Mikhail Bulgakov. The museum is located in Bulgakov's first apartment on Bolshaya Sadovaya str. 10 - 50, where he together with his wife lived after their moving to Moscow. This apartment was described by Bulgakov in his most fantastic work "The Master and Margarita" and is widely known as "The Odd Flat", where the writer's lively imagination settled the novel's central character Voland with his court. Today this apartment is the site of pilgrimage of Bulgakov's fans, who want to find themselves inside the famous novel and see how their favourite writer lived. The highlights of the collection are the expositions of the writer's room, the common kitchen, the living room, the Pigit House history and the "Odd Stairs". Beside that museum contains lots of Bulgakov's photos, books and personal belongings.
St. Petersburg MuseumsThe State Hermitage Museum
The Hermitage is one of the oldest and most famous museums of the world. They say that if you were to spend three minutes by each of its exhibits, it would've taken you three years to see the whole collection.The State Russian Museum
The museum was established by a decree of Alexander III, and was the first state-owned museum to be opened in Russia. Nowadays its collection includes more than 400,000 exhibits and rivals that of the Tretiakov Gallery in Moscow.Browse our tours | Browse our river cruises | Book tickets to Russian theaters

It's all Paul Doyle's fault: Asafa Powell coach blames agent for failed drug test
MIAMI, FL (Sporting Alert) — Asafa Powell and Sherone Simpson coach Stephen Francis distanced himself from the failed drug tests of his star athletes and blamed their agent Paul Doyle for getting his pupils in trouble.
Simpson and Powell were among five reported Jamaican athletes who tested positive for banned substances at the Jamaica Championships last month, with the news about their failed drug tests breaking on Sunday.
It is understood that Canadian trainer Chris Xuereb, who was brought in to help Powell personally, supplied both sprinters with supplements that appeared to have contributed heavily to them failing drug tests.
Simpson was supposed to be a member of the Jamaican sprint team at the IAAF World Championships in Moscow, Russia next month, while Powell, according to sources, was also going to be selected to race in the 4x100m relay, despite finishing seventh over the 100m at the trials.
However, both sprinters are now left bracing themselves for their required punishments and Francis blamed their agent Doyle for bringing in Xuereb to assist Powell in May, when he specifically told him not to.
"He (Xuereb) was brought here (MVP Track Club) presumable by Paul Doyle and at the behest of Asafa, (and) I told them not to bring him here," an angry Francis was quoted as telling RJR Sports.
Francis also moved quickly to distance his MVP Track Club setup from the current situation.
"This has nothing to do with us (MVP track club) and we are not dis-owning Asafa… all we are saying is that this is his personal employee," he said.
"He was not recommended by us, we don't know anything about him. He's not an MVP employee or MVP staff," Francis added.

Classic Courtyards
Create a private sanctuary in your yard with inspiration from these beautiful courtyards.
What's more peaceful than a quiet fountain? Low hedges of closely trimmed Japanese boxwoods outline a quartet of formal parterres separated by gravel paths, all centered around a fountain and small pond in this courtyard garden.
Once a pool, this peaceful English courtyard garden is filled with roses, hollyhocks, and foxgloves. Potted evergreen topiaries lend interest to the parterres when the roses are dormant. It's a slice of British heaven in the Deep South.
Ron Ernst has his ducks in a row. Nearly 10 years ago, he bought an 1891 two-story town house in Thomasville, Georgia, and converted it into A Different Drummer Gallery, an antiques store specializing in sporting art to serve the town's avid hunting and fishing community. The house came with a bonus—a beautiful little walled garden out back that he could share with his customers.
Shaped by evergreens, the garden looks good year-round.
A slatted arbor shades a sitting area at one of this courtyard. Pots of seasonal flowers by the table and chairs add a spot of color to a palette of mostly greens, browns, and grays. A lattice fence helps screen the neighbor's house from view.
Similar to a folly, this pavilion acts as an eye-catching element that draws people in. Two pools on either side of the dining area add an extra dose of serenity.
The cottage garden courtyard ties the orginal home to the addition and has an intimate scale. Partially hidden from the street below, it creates intrigue—only the stone wall, gate, and a few plants can be seen. As you approach the front door, the 22½- by 27-foot space comes into view as a garden within the larger landscape.
This porch is gracefully connected to the courtyard below by two sets of descending steps. The courtyard is also surrounded by a high brick wall because it's bordered on three sides by streets. Lush potted plants soften this hardscaped area while lending it some needed color.
Tour the Abercorn Place Idea House
Mixed pea and crushed gravel forms an attractive no-brain-to-maintain floor for a central courtyard that's great for grilling and entertaining. Shrubs and flowers bordering the space create an outdoor living room, complete with a cast-iron fire pit for cool months, a birdbath, pots spilling over with flowers, and a faux-bois bench in the center. A large galvanized horse trough planted with 'Green Giant' arborvitaes provides an evergreen backdrop for the bench. Planting in containers (such as this trough) allows for flexibility as needs change or plants grow.
A ramada (planted arbor) provides a natural roof to shade this outdoor room. Simple metal chairs create a casual seating area on the gravel floor, while groupings of pots give the space color and further define its edges.
Stepping down into the 20- × 20-foot terrace that sits about 2 feet lower than the surrounding grade feels like entering a room. A low stone wall around this terrace also adds a sense of enclosure and offers extra seating.

To me, you are my lover,
As you sit, facing me, and
Near, as you speak softly and sweetly.
In a vocal echo, that jolts
The heart in my chest.
For now, as I look at you. My voice is silent.
I can say nothing,
My tonque is silent, too.
As the fire under my skin, my eyes are opened to the light.
My ears hear.
I convulse with desire.

Precruise efforts for Leg 2
(Return to Leg 2 Mission Summary)
During Leg 2 of the Gulf of California expedition, the scientists will be undertaking an ambitious sampling and instrumentation program of high temperature hydrothermal chimneys in the Guaymas Basin. The primary targets are structures called Rebeccas Roost and Robins Roost that have been described and sampled on previous submersible and ROV expeditions. Although other groups have worked in this area, the last program was over two years ago and the structures may have changed. Also, this will be the first experience in this area for the ROV Tiburon pilots.
image shows Debra Stakes with the pilots in the ROV control room on the
R/V Western Flyer reviewing a video compilation of two previous
expeditions to the same site. Chief Pilot Buck Reynolds (center in hat) is
sitting in the chair occupied by the Chief Scientist during the ROV dives.
The scientists met many times, both in person and via teleconference, to put together a plan for the dive program. It became obvious that the scientific goals could not be met without using elevators to bring instruments to the seafloor and to carry samples and samplers back to the surface. We worked with a smaller elevator during the Juan de Fuca dives last August but needed both a larger volume and more secure elevator for this mission. Michael Conway and Randy Prickett of MBARI Operations designed, built, and tested a custom elevator for Leg 2 and a second elevator for Leg 5.
For Leg 2, the basket has special clamps to secure the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution water bottles in each corner. There is enough space in the basket for a biobox to hold additional samples as well as a basket of extra push cores for sediments. The buoyancy of the elevator was carefully calculated and the entire system was weighed in water in the test tank. The elevators will be especially critical to recover all the equipment and samples during the last dive on Leg 6.
The Leg 5 elevator hovers over the top of the test tank. Randy Pricket (in the blue hard hat) is operating the controls. Mike Conway (center) and Mike Kelley (on the right) are the divers shown in the video (see below).
Click the movie icon for a short .avi video taken through the window of the test tank at MBARI. (It may take some time to download.) The Leg 5 elevator deployment and release is being tested. The vertically mounted barrels are for the vibracoring system that will be used to collect longer sediment cores during this program.
The new elevator built for the Leg 2 program. Note the large dual basket with clamps on each corner.

Pine-Richland spoils Shaler's homecoming; Hampton wins big, too
TribLIVE Sports Videos
Entering his team's Saturday afternoon game at Shaler, Pine-Richland coach Clair Altemus was concerned about a change in routine.
The way things went for Altemus' Rams against the Titans, he might want to schedule more Saturday afternoon games.
Pine-Richland dominated Shaler on both sides of the ball and on the scoreboard, posting a 49-6 victory to spoil Shaler's homecoming festivities.
The Titans trailed, 14-0, late in the second quarter, but had moved inside Pine-Richland territory before quarterback Brad Good lost a fumble with 1:15 left.
"We had a chance to make it a one-score game late in the first half and we turned the ball over," Shaler coach Chris Siegle said.
The Rams turned Shaler's turnover into a touchdown with 15 seconds left in the half.
"We executed today. That was the big thing. We had been struggling a little bit coming into this one," Altemus said.
"I was a little worried about our routine getting thrown off, but we did what we had to do."
His team's 49 points were as many as the Rams had scored in their previous four games combined.
The Rams outgained the Titans, 491-106.
They totaled 333 yards rushing, including 163 yards by sophomore Connor Slomka and 101 yards from sophomore Earnest Williams.
"A lot of that is because of the great job of our offensive line and offensive line coach," Altemus said. "He gets those guys ready to go. We had three sophomores on the line today."
The lone bright spot for the Titans was a 90-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by junior Zach Carney, which accounted for the only Titans points in the game.
Hampton 49, Derry 0
Sometimes one or two players take over a game, which leaves everyone else watching them make highlight after highlight.
But in Hampton's rout of Derry, everyone had a hand in the team victory.
"It really doesn't happen too often," Hampton coach Jacque DeMatteo said. "It was really nice to everyone get to be a part of a win, but what struck me as more important than that is the receivers were really unselfish blocking downfield when they knew we weren't going to throw much after getting up early."
Hampton's top two running backs, Anthony Bianco and Frank Bello, sparked the Talbots' offensive surge in the first quarter with three touchdowns. Bello scored his first touchdown on a 58-yard run, and Bianco scored his only touchdown on 68-yard run on the next drive.
"We were on the road for their homecoming, so they had a lot to play for," DeMatteo said. "I think it was important for us to come out and put the fire out early."
The Talbots continued rolling in the second quarter with Ben Foreman's 90-yard touchdown run and a pair of Colin Luther touchdown receptions, one of which was a 25-yard pass from his brother, Ryan Luther.
"We have some depth in the skilled area, so we have some players that can fill in for few reps during games," DeMatteo said.
"There are some kids that had the opportunity to step in this week, and they produced."
Hampton scored its last touchdown in the fourth quarter when Dan Coholich, the team's fourth running back, ran the ball in from 2 yards out.
Jefferson Morgan 48, Vincentian 7
Vincentian Academy's inaugural football season didn't get any easier against a Jefferson-Morgan team.
"It was ugly," Royals coach Tim Storino said.
Jefferson-Morgan's Dustin Conti scored on the game's first drive with a 25-yard run, but Vincentian Academy responded on the next drive.
"We had a play called that we saw in the film that we thought we had a chance to execute, so we brought our set in tight and released the receiver downfield," Storino said.
"Our quarterback, Michael Tappe, made a great throw."
On the receiving end of Tappe's 65-yard touchdown pass was John Walter, who started the game as a receiver and finished the game playing left tackle. Walter finished the game as an offensive lineman because Vincentian Academy lost three players to injury in the first five minutes of the game."
"When you lose your best three players any team, regardless of their numbers, is going to struggle," Storino said. "We finished the game with 13 guys."
The Royals were also outsized by a wide margin.
"They're a big football team," Storino said. "They've got 250-pound linemen and a kid who is 6-6 and 350 pounds, and our line is averaging around 200 pounds. So we were mismatched from the get-go."
Jefferson-Morgan scored all of their 48 points in the first half, and neither team scored in the second half.
"When other teams get up on us they put in their JV squad," Storino said. "If we were playing a JV season, we might be undefeated."

Ruta Meilutyte already eyeing defence of her London 2012 Olympic title in Rio
Posted: October 04, 2012|
Ruta Meilutyte admits her life has well and truly changed since claiming Olympic gold two months ago – but she insists her desire to succeed in the pool has remained constant.
The 15-year-old pulled off one of the shocks of London 2012 when she trumped multiple Olympic and world champion Rebecca Soni to win the 100m breaststroke at the Aquatics Centre.
It wasn't the first time Meilutyte has succeeded on the Olympic stage having won the same event at the far smaller European Youth Olympic Festival in Turkey the year before.
However few would have expected what followed with Meilutyte, who attends Plymouth College, setting a new Lithuanian record in the heats at London 2012 and European record in the semi-final.
She beat American Soni by eight hundredths of a second in the final and hasn't been shy in stating her ambition to retain her title at the next Olympics in Rio in 2016.
"There is definitely a big difference between before and now," she said. "But I think about Rio every day, it's my biggest goal for the next four years.
"I had a chance to go back to Lithuania after the Olympics, before the closing ceremony, and I spent about a month there.
"I saw my family and friends that I have really missed over the years and seeing the smiles on people's faces made me really proud."

Rocket Internet's price comparison platform PricePanda announced today it secured $3 million funding from Tengelmann Group and other existing investors including Investment AB Kinnevik and Rocket Internet.
Through this funding, PricePanda aims to reshape the e-commerce landscape in more countries in the upcoming months. The comparison site is currently present in Indonesia, Singapore, the Philippines, and Malaysia. In addition to these countries, it already announced last November its intentions to launch in Thailand and open a regional office in Southeast Asia.
According to PricePanda co-founder and managing director Christian Schiller, the initial goal is to "bring transparency and overview into this world of excess information" among e-commerce businesses in Southeast Asia. He says users' reception is a sign of its success. Two weeks ago, it announced that it directed around one million users to various e-commerce sites in Southeast Asia. It now compares more than 70,000 products.
With Southeast Asia's expected number of internet users to reach 360 million by 2020, the team remains optimistic for growth in the region. Currently, Malaysia remains the biggest market for PricePanda.
Other price comparison sites in the region include PriceArea in Indonesia, Priceza in Thailand, and a few others.
PricePanda is available for download on Android and iOS.

When you are from where I'm from, it is perhaps hypocritical to be commenting on other states' highway systems. But, that has never stopped me.
Despite my home state's (Mississippi) transportation director's pompous statement a few years back about how our highway system was "the best in the country," we knew better. That state has a huge collection of some of the worst roads in America.
Georgia, meanwhile, has some of the best. I have been mightily impressed since moving here with this state's system, even though I wrote a while back — and caught much grief over the statement — that I thought the four-laning of Highway 27 from Blakely to Cuthbert, an ongoing project, is a colossal waste of money due to the low traffic count. I see no sense in expanding that opinion today.
But I did not set out to write about the roads in Mississippi or Georgia. My current lament is Alabama's.
I recently drove to South Mississippi determined to ascertain whether the use of U.S. 84 west of Dothan was a good idea or not. After all, it appeared to be a straight shot westward to my destination. I had been told several times, "Don't do it," but I can be a stubborn sort about such things, so I took out across Alabama the Beautiful via that route.
I found out all right — "don't do it." I won't again. Actually, it took only the leg from Dothan to Evergreen to learn my lesson. U.S. 84 through Dothan and booming Enterprise brings you to a stop a dozen times or more due to traffic signals. After escaping Enterprise and driving on toward Opp and Andalusia and on through some distinctly rural areas, you discover that Alabama once had grandiose plans to four-lane 84 all the way to Evergreen, but apparently the money ran out and the project fizzled.
I took sound advice and did not even attempt to travel U.S. 84 west of Evergreen, so I grabbed I-65 there and drove toward Mobile. I don't know whether heights give you the heebie-jeebies the way they do me, but that suspension-like bridge over the Mobile River is a real monster, enough said.
Interstate 65 took me to the cutoff at Mobile for U.S. 98 west, which is the real crux of this column. I simply cannot understand why the state of Alabama has never undertaken to build some sort of bypass from Mobile around Semmes and Wilmer, two small towns that you encounter as you travel west on U.S. 98 toward Mississippi. Thousands upon thousands of beach-bound motorists from throughout the South and Midwest must crawl through that route annually. It can be the bottleneck of all bottlenecks.
The high traffic count through those two small towns has evidently done little for them economically. I'm sure the fruit and boiled peanut stands like it, as do the many plant nurseries (I bought some vibrant fall tomato plants at one), but this is 2011 and can't Alabama create a better travel experience? It's way past time.

I enjoy driving, and yesterday I took a trip south of Toledo, to a place called Tahao. It's not even a town, just a cluster of houses, a petrol station and if you pass through here you would probably never think of taking any of the side streets to check them out.
I also like traveling, and I usually have the idea that I have to get far away to see something special or interesting. So I have probably passed more than 99 % of the side streets so far, during my trips. Of course, taking every side street to the end, you'd never get to your destination. Let's instead start driving without a destination and decide to check out the side streets again.
Yesterday my goal was to find a swimming pool. I had the idea that there were no swimming pools in the area, at least not big enough to do laps. When I was living in Cebu, I used to go swimming 4 times a week at Holiday Spa in Banilad(also in a sidestreet). It helped me stay in shape, I lost quite a few pounds but when we moved to Toledo, I stopped. Since then I've actually gained a little weight again, being a bit lazy.
Tahao, between Toledo and Pinamungahan, is not known as a tourist spot but they do have a lot of beaches where the locals go. The beaches cannot be compared to Boracay, but there is said to be a couple of white beaches. I will go looking for them. There are a number of resorts along the way, usually the same standard - a few beach nipa huts for rent, BBQ, beer and karaoke. I've been to a couple of them, but yesterday I decided to check out some more.
The first one, Tahaui Garden and Spa(spa is not operative yet), has a nice garden and a swimming pool. Price is 100 peso to swim. I was there yesterday, but they were maintaining the pool so I couldn't swim. I continued down the road, checked out Park Place, and noticed this beautiful pool:
Water was clean and cool, they had showers and CR, I had the pool almost by myself and it was big enough to do laps. The view was wonderful. Price, 60 peso. As you see, the weather was excellent yesterday, with one of the rare days without a cloud in the sky. I swam for about one hour, had a shower and went home. Of course, today I have a little surburn!
Another example of taking a side street was when Ned and I had our river safari in the previous article. Starting from now on, I'll begin checking out every side street to the end. You never know what you might discover; a new store, a resort, a swimming pool, a pond where they sell crawfish, a new friend or maybe a girlfriend if you're single!
0715 here now, will have my breakfast and head back for some more swimming. Will check out some more side streets, if not all - maybe one or two new every day!

"No one would listen anyway."
That is what the lady at the lake said as my family and I walked past her and asked "How are you?"
I whispered to my family, "Did you hear what she said?" Those words fell upon my ears in such a way that put me ill at ease. Immediately thoughts about what that woman might have going on flooded my mind. Thoughts about what those things might be that she needed someone — anyone — to just listen.
I was a bit shaken. I could tell that this woman had been drinking and that caused me to feel a little apprehensive initially. I kept walking. I told my family to keep going and to just keep an eye out. They encouraged me to do what they knew was in me to do.
My fears subsided. I paused in my tracks. I took a deep breath and I turned around. I was now in the path of oncoming walkers and joggers trying to make my way back to the lady. As I made my way back, I was praying to myself. "Just order my steps."
I reached the spot where she stood leaning over the rail of the deck looking out at the water. I said to her, "I will listen." She turned around and when she saw that I had returned she smiled and laughed. She, still skeptical of the existence of people of who genuinely care, said to me, "You must be a therapist or some kind of counselor. What is your profession?"
I laughed it off with her, evading the comment and the question. Although I was not a therapist at that time, I knew I was in my heart. In that moment, I just wanted to be a pair of ears and an open mind, so I replied with a smile, "I am just me and I'm listening."
She talked for about an hour. It had grown dark and the water now reflected the light from the lamp posts that towered above. My family had finished their walk and was waiting for me.
Without warning, "Ms. Lady" walked up to me and embraced me. She hugged me for what seemed like another hour. She shed tears and whispered in my ear. "You are an angel. You don't know how much you helped me. Thank you. Thank you."
I knew that I had not done anything, except for … listening. As it turned out, that was all she needed.
That one experience was chock full of food for thought, but there was one thing that stood out to me most. It was how routinely we utter the words "How are you doing?" as a way to greet one another that we do so while passing right by each other. Not pausing for a response.
"Ms. Lady" challenged that habitual act of courtesy that day I uttered those words to her. She challenged me to think about the real meaning those words carry. They come together to form a question that warrants a response. Sometimes that response will be a simple, "I am fine or I am doing well, thank you", but sometimes the response will be—an opportunity for you to listen.
I challenge you to not remain a creature of habitual courtesies.
Be encouraged.
