The Pine City Trail begins by leading northward from the Pine City backcountry registry. This route follows an dirt road that was once used to access the mines of Pine City. The trail leads northward one and a half miles to the abandoned mining town. The remains of the small community are very limited. Several closed shafts are visible from the trail, as are the plentiful flora of the area. Unusual rock formations are also abundant along this route.
Directions: From Oasis Visitor Center, Follow Utah Trail southward to a fork in the road. Bear right toward Jumbo Rocks Campground. Pass the campground and continue driving two miles to Geology Tour Road. Instead of turning left on to Geology Tour Road, turn right and drive 1.4 miles to the Pine City backcountry registry. The Desert Queen Mine Trail leads eastward from the trailhead.

Review: Oakley Airbrake v. Dragon APX v. POC Lobes v. SPY Platoon
Stole my post from EL—added SPY Platoon
So, yeah. Gear whore here so I'm going to break down the differences of the least reviewed spherical lensed goggles since I own/owned all of these goggles.
So, I'm asian with a flat face and I use a large bern brentwood and large giro shiv 2. My friend uses a giro g10 L.
Quality and Finish: tie. All are great—no excess plastic at mold seams. All the foam is even, lenses clean, etc. I think the quality is top notch on every pair.
Face Fit: Airbrake wins here—but this is qualified, I'm asian so the airbrake fits me the best without a helmet—meaning it has the flattest curve of the three (flatter and wider than the splice as well) the Platoon is a close second here though. With the other two, I've gotta cinch down the Lobes and APX's and between those two, the APX fit better. The pressure on my cheekbones from the narrower curve is negated by using a helmet since it splays the goggle. Essentially, it's all about preference when you're wearing a helmet especially with more flexible frames on the APX and Lobes. Additionally, I had my friends of the multiethnic variety try on all of them for purposes of this review and they said that the nose bridge design of the Airbrake has the least pressure and best nose fit across the spectrum—likely due to the rigid front frame
Helmet compatibility/integration: Airbrake with close second by the Platoon. All four goggles fit with helmets, provided you don't have a brim on your helmet—but the oakleys seem to have the best fit likely due to both the outriggers and distance from the lens to the face combined with the flat top of the goggle. Compared to the Airbrake, the Platoon, Lobes and APX sit a little closer to the face for less protrusion. The Platoon sits almost flush with the helmet edge but the other two leave more of a gap due to the the rounded top part of the goggle (this is more pronounced on the APX). This criteria is more a style tradeoff however as they are compatible regardless and provide no detriment to riding or vision.
Foam: Dragon APX wins. All the face foam from all four are relatively similar, triple layered—here I think the edge goes to the Dragon APX, just from the softness of the micro-fleece backing on the contact layer. The Airbrake seems to have less dense foam than the APX/Platoon/Lobes and feels like a better seal around the face but for sheer comfort/feel I prefer the APX.
Venting/Fogging: Dragon APX and wins by a sliver over the Airbrake/Platoon. The Airbrake/Platoon/APX don't fog—I even let my sweaty brother use them, no condensation—even when they had some snow on the interior! The reason I edged it to the APX was the hard vents—I love them and I wish everyone had them because of the wear and tear of accumulated snow/ice. The Lobes bring up the rear—at speed they're fine and don't fog but after some hard runs or waiting on a lift the smaller vents catch up and fog quite quickly and the interior anti-fog coating is very very delicate.
Clarity: tie. All three have amazingly clear lenses. I used the Platoon with Contact Bronze with a Persimmon extra lens. I used the POC All Blacks with a clear/gold mirror extra lens, Dragon APX with blue/yellow ionized, rose, eclipse lenses and the Airbrake with fire iridium and persimmon lenses. If you're going for lens variety the Airbrakes win by sheer amount of lens variation the tints are all great though—for all around I think blue ionized from Dragon have to be my favorite for look and function.
Durability: Airbrake and APX and Platoon win. The differences in lens clarity is imperceptible—for durability though, the oakleys and dragons seems to have a more durable lens coating than the POC from everyday riding. For reference—I fell face first into basically hardpack/ice with the Airbrake lenses and came away with no visible surface scratches. The same durability assessment applies to the APX/Platoon but the Lobes seem to accumulate scratches quite quickly from abrasive cloth to everyday riding.
Field of Vision: Dragon APX/Platoon win. Of these 4 they both have the largest field of vision—they beat the Lobes on vertical field and slightly on the peripheral aspect. The Airbrake sits farther away from your face and as such the frame obstructs vision a bit more than the APX and Lobes—don't get me wrong though, all of them have great views but the APX/Platoon it just that much more.
Lens switching: Oakley Airbrake, hands down. The lens change is too quick. Period. You can change the lens on a lift or in the forest without even taking your gloves off—you really can't beat that. For the other pairs, I'd say the APX and Lobes "frameless" look is detrimental to the lens change as it seems like interface is less secure and more prone to breakage especially on the APX lens pegs. The Platoon is the more conventional of these goggles and is pretty standard for lens changing.
Overall, all four are great goggles but if I had to choose one—I'd likely pick the APX, just because of the look. The pragmatic side of me would pick the Airbrake/Platoon and if I wanted to look like a murderer, I'd do the all black Lobes.

I thought the APX looked cool when they were first introduced and I was only looking at a magazine. Now if it were based on looks the APX is the last large goggle I would ever get, nobody looks good, but buglike, in it.
Thx for the details tho.

Totally agree with the Spy Platoons. Best goggles I've ever had, tough shoes given that I've used Smith IO's and Oakley Crowbars. The only large field-of-view spherical goggle that sealed around my face. Doesn't look unbelievably huge on anyone's face.
Really solid goggles.

Nice review. I've been becoming a bit of a gear whore myself. I might have to get some Spy's now. I've been running eg2's and lately the I/O's. I feel the the field of view is amazing on the electrics but the lens clarity of the smith is better. Next years I/OX should be pretty sweet.

Thanks for the review. Very timely, since I'm going to be getting Airbrakes for my birthday. Good to know I don't have to change my mind (the lens switching is what I really want).

I bought a pair of Dragon APX. I really like them but there is one small issue I want to point out. The foam on the inside of the APX seem to not be as wide as other goggles because they pinch the edge of my eyes. I have a pair of VZ Feenoms and I have plenty of space. I had to trim both sides of the foam on the APX for a comfortable fit. For those of you with large melons you probably want to try the fit of the APX before you buy.

Hey Everyone,
I have been playing with the concept of using a bicycle for my once-a-week trip to visit my in-laws, about 25 miles away. The problem however is that I live in a rather hilly area (Appalachian area of VA), and am not sure if the idea is feasibly practical. Assuming it could be somewhat realistically done however, what sort of bike would you recommend for the journey? My thinking on the subject is that a lightweight road bike would be less to heft up the hills, a mountain bike would be cheaper and lower geared but slower, and an old touring bike would be a compromise but harder to find. As far as additional information goes, the roads are not very busy and aren't too horribly rife with potholes and my budget is perhaps $250 (eliminating the possibility of any "new" bike). Thanks for any advice you can give!

I've been ranting and raving about the previews they have been showing for Identity since Final Destination 2. Being the most incredible and powerful preview I've ever seen, I didn't think it could live up to the hype, but in fact, the preview says it all. The preview shows us the main idea around Identity, only its just the first ingredient in one of the greatest dishes ever assembled. Identity begins by bringing a group of people into a Bates Motel look-alike Motel and things unfold from there. In the beginning it is quite a simple plot, George York (John C. McGinley) busts into the motel with his wife in his arms bleeding to death, while his little boy Timothy (Bret Loehr) silently stands behind. We then go through a series of flash backs, then flash forwards setting up Identity. I know it appears simple, but I assure you, it is far from it.
I can name about a hundred things that make Identity one of the greatest films I've ever seen. The first reason is probably the most obvious, the cast. Seriously, look at everyone in this film! Identity has a mass amount of what could be the best low price actors in film today. Seriously, we get Amanda Peet (Saving Silverman), John Cusack (about a million great 80's flicks), Ray Liotta (Goodfellas), Jake Busey (Frightners), John McGinley (Platoon), Alfred Molina (who's playing Doc Oc in Spiderman 2), Clea DuVall (Ghost of Mars), Rebecca De Mornay (Risky Business), and more! Holy crap, just look at that list, every single one of them played their part perfectly to a "T."
John Cusack plays Ed, who's an ex-cop turned limo driver for actress Caroline Suzanne (Rebecca De Mornay). He's intense, smart, and knows how to control the situation at hand. The situation? People are dying, but who's done it? In the midst of Clue, every single actor brings you a level of fear. Could Ray Liotta have done it? Isn't Jake Busey a bad guy in every film, maybe he did it? Maybe it was John McGinley, his wife was hurt by one of the other actors on accident, but maybe he blew his gasket? There's no way you could guess, so don't even bother, just sit back and let things unfold in front of you.
As I pointed out, Identity is said to be like the Sixth Sense , how so you ask? I say its because of James Mangold and Michael Cooney. Just like M. Night Shyamalan, where in gods name did these guys come from? Michael Cooney's previous writing experience includes the likes of Jack Frost and Jack Frost 2! Yep, I am in fact referring to those incredible unwitting garbage they stuck on the video shelves with the cool box to help sell it. How did Cooney get from point A to point B? It's simple, with an incredible script, something fresh and new, assembled with another surprise, James Mangold's directing. Look at Mangold's resume: Copland, Girl, Interrupted, and Kate and Leopold, its incredible what he has learned filming those movies. Identity will make him known, and turn him into a big time Hollywood director.
The camera work is distinct; it's full of various shots and set up in one of the most unsettling motels since the Bates Motel. The unletting and relentless rain, with the constant thunder and lighting add to the suspense. Mangold creates tension around every corner, with Cooney's whom done it approach and with the sudden mysterious surprises that await you. The feel is if you are watching The Others, Identity is very unsettling, the entire movie you find yourself on the edge of your seat.
It's extremely hard to say anything else if I want to keep the surprise in the bag. But I'll leave you with this; I cannot guarantee you will enjoy the conclusion to this film. I've read numerous reviews and have found that the end either makes or breaks the film for the viewer. For me, it was incredible, when you thought you were left hanging, things just kicked started into third gear, then fourth! Identity never seems to end, until everything is tied together and you leave the theater with a clear understanding of the events that took place, and by no means is it boring. Get ready for what truly is the best thing since The Ring, and do not leave your seat, for anything!

German employers' inputs to employee training

Using organizational level survey data, this article analyzes larger German private employers' inputs to employee skills development, to test the theory that unions and employers' associations raise employer incentives for training. Large German employers maintained their overall contribution between 1995 and 1999. Indicative data for 2004 suggest that this has continued, yet neither membership of employers' associations nor high union densities influenced it.

Especially since the time travel stuff in previous Trek made sense. ENT, "In a Mirror, Darkly" is the perfect example. The Defiant gets thrown back in time, AND into a parallel universe. Each universe has its own timeline. You can cross between universes (they did it in every Mirror Universe episode, Worf did it in Parallels), you can travel along the timeline of each universe (slingshotting around a sun, what the Borg did in First Contact, etc...), and in special cases, like that ENT episode, you can travel back in time and step into a parallel universe.
Same thing happened in this movie, but Orci just doesn't want it to acknowledge that, although it's so easy and hurts no one.
One thing, though: Does Sarek even know who Spock Prime is? In the actual film, they never met. Was there a deleted scene in which they did encounter each other? If so, do they actually speak, or only pass by? Sarek might have no idea who Spock Prime is, and I doubt Spock would introduce himself as, well, himself. That might cause Sarek too much pain, especially since Spock Prime grew up knowing both parents.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
Steve was the best DJ and I am so glad that I had him at my wedding. From the ceremony to the reception everything was just perfect. The dance floor was never empty and everyone from the young guests to the older guests were having fun dancing to all the songs he played. His rates were very reasonable, his website made planning the wedding and putting in song request very easy. I would, without question, use him again for any other event which required a DJ.
Steve was so essential to making our wedding as awesome as it was! He played great music and really got the crowd going! We received so many compliments on him; we couldn't be more thankful! He worked great with our photographer and really helped keep us on track. I would recommend Steve without a doubt to anyone! You will regret it if you don't book him!
Steve was wonderful. He provided a website where we could supply all of our music choices and he had a wide range of music to choose from. I was also able to put in all of our announcements and schedule of events so that I didnt have to worry that everything was getting done on schedule. I would highly recommend him for any event.
I booked Perry's Mobile service for my June wedding. When I called back in January, Steve was already booked, but told me his partner, Hugo Valladares was available. They worked together at a previous company and now have their own mobile service. At first I was hesitant because Hugo had never done a wedding on his own, but Steve assured me he was great. I met with Hugo, felt comfortable right away, gave him our wedding outline and then had him on our rehearsal day. Steve was there to help and answered any questions I had. The day of the wedding, everything went as planned and Hugo was an amazing DJ for our wedding. I am still getting compliments on how awesome he was and how well he mixed music. For the price, customer service and follow through I highly recommend Hugo and Steve for your event.
Steve is Awesome!! I cannot say enough about how amazing he was. Steve was a pleasure to work with and I really liked his online event planner, it was easy to navigate through with and ensured that all the music we wanted was played. He was a great MC and kept the wedding moving. We had a large wedding, over 230 quests, and most of our guests were on the dance floor the entire night. Not only did our guests rave about the music and how great our DJ was, many of them told my husband and I that our wedding was the best they had ever been to and they had never seen a dance floor that packed all night long. I am beyond happy with the services Steve provided, he is reasonably priced and truly amazing at what he does.
Stephen worked with us to meet our requests for the type of music we wanted and how we wanted the day to go. He brought in an assistant to work during part of the day and the assistant was friendly and professional.
We are so very happy to have found Stephen to DJ our wedding. Although his rates are quite reasonable, having a DJ was the biggest expense of our D.I.Y. wedding, but worth every penny! Stephen helped turn our reception into a true celebration with his music, skill, and kind personality.
We were somewhat nervous about hiring Stephen because we are a Jewish same sex couple and weren't sure of his experience and comfort level with either type of wedding. However, we were treated with the utmost respect at all times. He did a great job with the Jewish music, and to our delight and surprise every single guest danced the horah with us. The chair dance is also one of our happiest memories.
We both love to dance and actually met at a dance, so music and dancing was to be a big part of our wedding celebration, and Stephen did not disappoint. He played a lot of what we wanted along with his own choices, which really complimented our style and requests. Our wedding was everything we wanted it to be and Stephen helped make that happen! We highly recommend Perry's Mobile Disc Jockey!
Thanks again, Steve!
Devon and Cassie
Steve was great to work with! He had so many ideas and played exactly what we wanted. We are still getting compliments about how much fun people had our wedding. Steve kept everyone out on the dance floor until the very end, and that was exactly what we wanted!
I would recommend Steve's services for anything. He kept people dancing all night.
Steve did a great job, we could not have asked for more! Highly recommend!!!!
Excellent DJ. Would use again in a heartbeat!
Steve was the DJ at my wedding on July 27, 2013. He did a fantabulous job! Even when I emailed him a number of last minute requests, literally hours before the event he pulled them all off flawlessly, was an excellent MC, provided event up lighting, and managed to select the perfect music to accompany the many selections I'd already provided for him. Everyone loved the music selections many other guests asked for actual CDs of the music, if possible. Even the hotel staff were dancing. We had live musicians during the ceremony, but Steve provided the recessional song, and he was right on cue. I would give him 10 stars if I could!
Steve kept the ball rolling well during our reception and ceremony. I would recommend him without hesitation.
Steve was our wedding Dj and he was fantastic! I must admit that both my soon to be husband and myself were probably the worst kinds of clients for a Dj as we had no solid playlist for Steve to follow. He was kind enough to meet up with us to go over the styles of music we liked. After we told him we were into the old school Motown genre, he got really excited about putting together a playlist for us at our wedding.
Fast forward to the wedding day, we loved every single song he played! We actually had a lot of guests come up to us throughout dinner to compliment the music selection. There were also moments during the evening where Steve would run things by us as a courtesy. We really appreciated that!
He was extremely professional and made our day run very smoothly. I, without a doubt, would recommend him to anyone in need of a good, friendly, professional, and talented Dj. Thanks Steve for all your help at making our wedding day extra special. The music was absolutely perfect and spot on!
Steve was so helpful and responsive as a DJ. For my husband and I, music has been an important part in our relationship and we wanted to reflect our unique style at our wedding. Steve called me several times to go over our preferences. After several half our phone calls we nailed it down. The day of our wedding every song I selected was played! Steve even played my favorite songs during dinner so that I would be present to hear them as opposed to playing them while we were away taking family photos. Steve is so easy to work with and really does not take the spotlight away from the bride and groom. Set up behind the scenes, many people didn't even realize he was there until the end of the party! I truly recommend Steve as a DJ. He listens to this clients and truly is professional.
My husband and I absolutely loved having Steve as our wedding DJ. Steve was incredibly easy to work with and very helpful in preparing for the day of. He worked closely with my husband and me to ensure that we got what we wanted and always asked for feedback. The most important thing for my husband and I when it came to picking out a DJ for our wedding day was that we wanted someone who could watch the crowd and properly gauge what song to play next based on the crowd's feedback. Steve did an outstanding job in regards to this. He had the whole group dancing the entire night! Our caterers actually had to break down additional tables in order expand our dance floor to fit everyone! Steve was also great at being the MC and making sure all the main events, i.e. the garter toss, bouquet toss, father/daughter dance, etc., happened seamlessly as the event progressed. My husband and I could not be happier with our DJ pick and we happily recommend Steve to anyone else who is looking for a DJ for their special event.

Our Southern culture understands gun safety and safe gun use and that why we have a disconect in the safety of citizens and the freedom to own fire arms. Gun owners should be on the front lines encouraging safety,but they can't be counted on to help solve the problem. Hunters have regulation they follow during deer season,duck limits, dogs verses hunting stands,doe season and buck season with the understanding that head light on a rural road is illegal.When we talk about evil thinking people buying military style weapons,because they hunt humans in schools ,movie theaters,malls and prior to going they purchased legally a AR 15,or a military M16 rifle and they are not hunters of prey they prey on humans.Where are the duck hunters and deer hunters,who love the woods and nature when a idiot buys a military style weapon and slaughters the innocent with a military style weapon. I am a democrat who supports our 2nd amendment rights,but I don't believe that I need a grenade launcher to hunt deer or a rocket launcher to hunt squirrels new regulation is needed, right now, on the types of bullets,rifles defined as military only which are for killing people with large magazine clips.Bullets that penetrates bullet proof vest should be restrcted to government only. This debate will not include taking away guns,but will focus on what type of weapons will sold to the public and the ammunition that will be restricted. Just like drugs are classified and being restricted.How many hunters want your next door armed with a Tank that has ammo and ya'll have a disagreement what will happen.Let have new regulation and support our elected officials.

Packin' 'em in at Chancellorsville
If you are a subscriber to Blue & Gray Magazine (or a BN mag browser), check out the battle maps on pages 60 and 61 of just arrived Issue XXIX, #4 [Chancellorsville Action from April 28-May 2, 1863: Danger in the Dark Woods by Frank A. O'Reilly]. Both are truly striking full-page images of one of the most bizarre and dramatic moments in any Civil War battle. That's some impressive unit density (and these are early 1863 sized regiments not the skeletons of 1864 onward) as well as research dedicated enough to confidently position them all.

David Letterman Starts Record Label, Signs Huntington Beach's Runner Runner
Categories: Curb Your Cynicism, curmudgeonliness, local bands, music-biz shiz
And his first band signed? A pop punk band called Runner Runner right out of Huntington Beach. Runner Runner's line-up consists of Ryan Ogren, Nick Bailey, Peter Munters, Jon Berry and James Ulrich. You might (or might not) recognize Berry's name as one of the founding members of Rufio.
So is Runner Runner any good? No. But, as Spin points out, their music player on their MySpace has already garnered over 11 million plays, so it's not like what we think matters here anyway. Take a listen for yourself below to their first single, "So Obvious."
Runner Runner is embarking on a tour starting this May, which will wrap up here in California back at the good ol' Chain Reaction on June 8.

- Filed Under
In a cost-saving move, Purdue University has merged its award-winning marketing and media office with its Office of Public Affairs, officials announced Monday. The action eliminates a vice president position.
"This consolidation joins two groups with similar goals and functions and at the same time reduces administrative overhead," said president Mitch Daniels. "We're very grateful to Teri for the work she did to move Purdue forward in adopting modern marketing methodologies, and this merger will sustain that momentum."

Fishing and Lodging Packages for Fly Fishing in Montana
Gallatin River Guides strategic location in Big Sky, Montana allows our customers to fish a ton of Montana's best fly fishing waters. But fishing isn't the only reason people come to our area: Our fantastic lodging and dining options are the perfect compliment to a Montana fly fishing vacation. GRG has teamed with some of the region's best lodges, resorts, chefs, and guides to offer lodging and fishing packages.
We have our All-Inclusive Packages in three tiers: Lodges, Hotels, and our clients' favorite - Private House/Private Chef.
Fly Fishing Lodges
Proven Fishing Programs, Fine Dining, and Cocktail Party Atmosphere
Prices start around $1200 per person.
We've teamed with some of the best lodges with the best fishing programs. If you like being pampered, these are the way to go. The proven fishing itineraries are part of these lodges appeal. The fishing and food menus are tantalizing: float fishing the Yellowstone River, then dining on Buffalo tenderloin with morel mushroom merlot reduction. . . stalking browns on a secret creek while looking forward to a glass of Silver Oak with your evening meal. . . or chasing rainbows on the Madison and then enjoying seared Ahi as the sun sets beyond Lone Peak.
Our favorites that we are happy to share (we've left out a few because they are just too special and our competitors will notice): Lone Mountain Ranch in Big Sky, Montana; Rainbow Ranch Lodge in Big Sky, Montana; Gallatin River Lodge in Bozeman, Montana; Yellowstone Valley Lodge in Paradise Valley, Montana.
Hotel Fly Fishing Packages
Fishing Flexibility, Local Color Experiences, and Money Saved is More Money Spent on Fishing
Prices start around $350 per person.
Bozeman and Big Sky, Montana are on everyone's fly fishing list. Year-round fishing exists in both areas and an abundance of fishing options can make planning a trip tough - just when and where to be on a given day is hard to know. Let your GRG guide do that for you. Our hotel fly fishing packages offer the most in flexibility. Because you are not tied to a lodge's fishing program you can plan, with your guide, the best fishing possible. One day fish a private spring creek, the next wherever - if the wind is howling up the Madison, call an audible and head to the upper Missouri.
We have several options for hotel lodging in the area. If our hotel fly fishing packages interest you, contact us to start planning. We'll make sure we match you with your favorite hotel.
Private House and Chef Packages
The Best of All Worlds: Fishing Flexibility, Fine Dining, and First Class Lodging
Prices starting at $1500 per person
Over the years we've found many of our clients love the five-start dining that a lodge can offer, but want the flexibility in fishing and the access we have to the best waters. They learned that by going to a lodge they are sometimes forced into being a part of everyone's fishing program. Now they don't have to. With our guides and our private chefs, our clients can fish early or late; far or near; fish the same river two days in a row if they want; all while coming back each evening to their own private vacation rental. These packages are intimate with only your group, your guides, and your private chef. These have become so popular with our clients that we are now forced to post them on the Internet.
We can run these trips out of vacation rentals in Big Sky, near Yellowstone National Park, Bozeman, Livingston, and Paradise Valley, Montana.

Technote (troubleshooting)
I have a project where a dialer is being used but I there are records where interviewers have manually coded as 'No Answer' from the tipresps menu screen.
Apart from records where preview dialing applies, what else would cause the dialer to pass a record to an interviewer while it is still unanswered?
Resolving the problem
Calls will be passed to the interviewer any time there is a connection. This can include such things as answering machines and voicemail. We have also seen on rare occasions where a telco provider does not send a proper signal for tri-tones, resulting in those appearing as connections.
The "No Answer" tipcode is a standard tipcode available for interviewers to select, whether or not it is a true No Answer. The interviewers are probably miscoding things such as immediate hangups. If that is an issue, you may want to consider removing or hiding that tipcode

Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine knows something that thousands of Florida State University students discover every year - FSU is a great value.
For the 12th consecutive year, Kiplinger's has included FSU in its list of the 100 "best values" among public colleges and universities. Florida State ranked 26th as a value for in-state students and 33rd for those from out-of-state. Last year, it ranked 18th for in-state value and 31st out-of-state.
Kiplinger's ranks the schools on academic quality - which includes test scores and four-year graduation rates - as well as measures of affordability such as tuition, available financial aid and student debt after graduation.
This follows the news earlier this month that FSU had topped a list compiled by U.S. News & World Report of national universities that operate most efficiently.
"We are pleased with this latest recognition. Florida State University continues to be an excellent value," FSU President Eric J. Barron said in a news release. "By all accounts, we are one of the most efficient and effective universities in the United States."
These honors don't necessarily reflect the big prize. FSU is a major research university, and it's a sore point with FSU supporters that the rival University of Florida is the only state school to have earned membership in the prestigious Association of American Universities. In fact, Dr. Barron has incentives in his contract that kick in if FSU wins an invitation.
Still, being a "best value" and being a serious university are not mutually exclusive.
Consider that the University of North Carolina ranks No. 1 for in-state value, followed by the University of Virginia and UF. In fact, Kiplinger's showed that the Atlantic Coast Conference - while maybe a bit weak in football this year - remains strong in education, with UNC at No. 1, UVA at No. 2, Maryland at No. 5, N.C. State at No. 21, FSU at No. 26, Virginia Tech at No. 28, Georgia Tech at No. 30 and Clemson at No. 34.
The Kiplinger's list also shows that budget cuts need not cripple a university. FSU has suffered six straight years of cuts in its state funding, including $65.8 million in its base operating budget for 2012-13. Even UNC, which has topped the Kiplinger's list in all 12 years it has been published, had taken more than $230 million in cuts since 2008 before this year's budget improved slightly.
FSU is giving its students and Florida's taxpayers good value. For that, we tip our hat.

Local tomatoes remain plentiful at Charles and Norma Spillers' stand. The Spillers will have both ripe and green tomatoes available Friday and Saturday mornings. Grab enough to make salsa and relish that will last through the winter.
It's the first time in years a fall tomato crop has been available at the Monroe Farmers Market. ...

iPhone and iPod Touch gamers have likely already heard of Fruit Ninja, a game where you coldly murder different offerings from nature's bounty -- by tapping and slicing across the screen, you cut down watermelons and the like. It's a pretty simple game and at only $.99, it's quickly climbed the charts of the most popular Apps in the US, Canada, Australia, Germany, France, Denmark and Sweden. So we decided to grill Halbrick's creator and lead designer of Fruit Ninja, Luke Muscat, on all things iPhone.
Joystiq: You sent out a press release before the weekend claiming 140,000 copies sold of your iPhone/iPod Touch game, Fruit Ninja. What's the current total at?
Luke Muscat: Over 200,000 now. That's a pretty big milestone for us, we are very happy to have achieved such great success in a market that can be pretty unpredictable. If you're reading this and have purchased the game – you rule the App store!
How has developing for the iPhone been compared to your usual development on consoles and handhelds? Which do you prefer?
I really enjoy developing iPhone projects, because they way you approach them has to be completely different. If you stuck to traditional handheld or console genre conventions you may not achieve the unique qualities which are pretty much required for iPhone games to be successful.
An added bonus to iPhone development is the short dev cycle. We never want to go overscope or overbudget, so keeping the timeline quick is a great way to keep everyone focused and excited. Of course, other platforms have their distinct advantages too, but obviously right now we are enjoying some success on the iPhone and can easily find praise for it.
What would you attribute the success of the app to? The price? The gameplay? Word of mouth? All of the above?
All of the above! We were at a point during Fruit Ninja development when we felt that everything was in the right place, and we had covered all bases for it to be successful. We had the simple, addictive gameplay, the timely marketing efforts and a pretty rad trailer. There's always a dice roll with the app store, and thankfully the gamers embraced Fruit Ninja and the word of mouth began to spread. We hit the top five in pretty much every major market around the world, where Fruit Ninja continues to happily reside!
What have you learned from the success of this game and how will you apply it to projects going forward? Are you solely in the Fruit Ninja game now (pun totally intended)?
A good idea and simple game mechanic can always be successful. We know what the game would be and the value gamers would get out of it, so we spent a lot of time polishing and tweaking to carry that core gameplay to an immensely satisfying level. Juice-inducingly satisfying.
We're in the Fruit Ninja business, but certainly not blinded to other opportunities. Basically we can check it off as a successful IP which will always be part of our repertoire as a developer, and from here start exploring our next awesome idea!
Also, worst pun ever.
Has this quick success on the iPhone meant a shift in development priority? Are you guys all gung-ho on the iPhone now or are you still very much a console studio?
We always had a pretty concise plan for the iPhone. We needed a small library of simple, fun games which were basically a test for us to explore the viability of the iPhone. There's always going to be risks and we wanted to minimize that. Our experience so far has simply confirmed our original plan, so we're not suddenly going to go all out on the platform, we keep doing what we do and hopefully people will dig it!
Hardly an answer, but okay. Where do you go from here? Fruit Ninja 2? Or do you continue to build on the first game through updates and the like?
We have a second original iPhone game in development, but part of the team is also working on Fruit Ninja updates. We always take feedback and suggestions on board, and this update will include a pretty popular suggestion – we're adding an entirely new game mode and a new gameplay function. You can absolutely look forward to several Fruit Ninja updates in the coming weeks and months.
Finally, who would win in a fight: a Fruit Ninja or a Vegetable Pirate?
What would a Vegetable Pirate do? Sit around making vodka out of potatoes? Sorry, but a Fruit Ninja is a master of all forms of combat. They'll slice up a Vegetable Pirate faster than you can say "This vodka tastes like crap."

It's critical in big-time team sports to peak at the right time because winning the championship is the ultimate goal.
No one cares if a team has the best record in the regular season if that team comes up short in the playoffs.
Fear of failure when the white-hot spotlight is at its brightest has taken down pretender after pretender. That is what Marvelous Marvin Gatdula faces as we wrap up the regular season.
Marvelous should finish with the best record for the regular season in the Pacific Daily News Pigskin Prognosticators standings. Once the NFL playoffs begin in a few weeks, though, everyone's record goes to 0-0 and we start from scratch.
Is Gatdula going to be Marvelous in the playoffs, or will he revert to Mediocre Marvin like he did several years ago? Well, finally forced to turn in his picks on time, Marvelous managed a 10-8 record over the weekend. Is he peaking or have we already seen the best he has to offer?
"Please don't put pressure on me," Marvelous said. "I don't like pressure."
Yeah, we know. You're a reflection of your favorite team.
"Please don't drag the Chargers into this," Marvin said.
Why not? They're in the AFC's weakest division and played like crap. Imagine what their record would be if they didn't face the Chiefs and Raiders twice.
"Please, please," Mediocre Marvin said, weeping quietly.
See that transformation, readers? Some teams and Progs don't respond well to pressure and revert to their true selves during the playoffs. We'll see what Marvin is made of once it's time to win or go home.
On the other side of the coin, Kris Flores, Phil "The Jerk Hunter" Blas and Ronell Rivera appear to be peaking at the right time.
Kris and Phil tied for the week's best record at 14-4, while Ronell was at 13-5.
"R-E-S-P-E-C-T," sang Kris, belting out Aretha Franklin's classic. "Find out what it means to me!"
Whoa, big guy. We're not sure we can handle all that booty shaking.
"Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me," sang Kris, undeterred by any protests.
We'll let Kris finish up and move on to The Jerk Hunter. How you feeling, Phil?
"Whoa! I feel good, I knew that I would, now," sang Phil, giving his rendition of the James Brown mega-hit. "I feel good, I knew that I would."
So The Jerk Hunter has moves. Who knew?
"So good, so good, I got you," sang Phil "So good, so good, I got you. So good, so good, I got you. Hey!"
OK, Ronell, it's your turn, we guess.
"I'd rather not," Ronell said.
Come on, dude.
"Are you forcing me?" asked Ronell, taking a deep breath.
Don't get mad.
"People that force other people to do things really get under my skin," Ronell said. "It makes me mad."
Wow, settle down.
"No, I'm just angry enough to get my groove on. DJ, hit it!" Ronell barked, grabbling a microphone. "Ya'll gon' make me lose my mind, up in here, up in here. Ya'll gon' make me go all out, up in here, up in here. Ya'll gon' make me act a fool, up in here, up in here. Ya'll gon' make me lose my cool, up in here, up in here."
Ronell then dropped the mic and walked out of the room, just like any good, angry rapper would do. Yes, folks, the testosterone is flowing and the playoffs are almost here. It's almost time for a champion to emerge.
We can't wait.

Collaborative Interventions for Circulation and Depression (COINCIDE): study protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial of collaborative care for depression in people with diabetes and/or coronary heart disease

2 School of Nursing, Midwifery & Social Work and Manchester Academic Health Science Centre, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK
3 Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry, University of Exeter and Peninsula Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care (PenCLAHRC), Exeter, Devon, UK

Trials 2012, 13:139 doi:10.1186/1745-6215-13-139Published: 20 August 2012
Depression is up to two to three times as common in people with long-term conditions. It negatively affects medical management of disease and self-care behaviors, and leads to poorer quality of life and high costs in primary care. Screening and treatment of depression is increasingly prioritized, but despite initiatives to improve access and quality of care, depression remains under-detected and under-treated, especially in people with long-term conditions. Collaborative care is known to positively affect the process and outcome of care for people with depression and long-term conditions, but its effectiveness outside the USA is still relatively unknown. Furthermore, collaborative care has yet to be tested in settings that resemble more naturalistic settings that include patient choice and the usual care providers. The aim of this study was to test the effectiveness of a collaborative-care intervention, for people with depression and diabetes/coronary heart disease in National Health Service (NHS) primary care, in which low-intensity psychological treatment services are delivered by the usual care provider - Increasing Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services. The study also aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the intervention over 6 months, and to assess qualitatively the extent to which collaborative care was implemented in the intervention general practices.
This is a cluster randomized controlled trial of 30 general practices allocated to either collaborative care or usual care. Fifteen patients per practice will be recruited after a screening exercise to detect patients with recognized depression (≥10 on the nine-symptom Patient Health Questionnaire; PHQ-9). Patients in the collaborative-care arm with recognized depression will be offered a choice of evidence-based low-intensity psychological treatments based on cognitive and behavioral approaches. Patients will be case managed by psychological well-being practitioners employed by IAPT in partnership with a practice nurse and/or general practitioner. The primary outcome will be change in depressive symptoms at 6 months on the 90-item Symptoms Checklist (SCL-90). Secondary outcomes include change in health status, self-care behaviors, and self-efficacy. A qualitative process evaluation will be undertaken with patients and health practitioners to gauge the extent to which the collaborative-care model is implemented, and to explore sustainability beyond the clinical trial.
COINCIDE will assess whether collaborative care can improve patient-centered outcomes, and evaluate access to and quality of care of co-morbid depression of varying intensity in people with diabetes/coronary heart disease. Additionally, by working with usual care providers such as IAPT, and by identifying and evaluating interventions that are effective and appropriate for routine use in the NHS, the COINCIDE trial offers opportunities to address translational gaps between research and implementation.

Columbia, SC (WLTX) - Archaeologists at the site that once held a prisoner of war camp during the Civil War are making more discoveries as they dig.
The digs are happening at the Bull Street campus in Columbia, once home to the state's sole mental health facility.
During the Civil War,however, it was home to about 1,500 Union soldiers captured during battle.
Digs so far have turned up various artifacts, such a button believed to be from around 1854 belonging to the jacket of a Union soldier. There's also a buckle from a pair of suspenders, and a buckle from a nap sack, archaeologists said Friday.
That included possible remnants of warming pits for the soldiers, called "shebang's," that they used to stay warm during winter between Dec. 12, 1864 and Feb. 14, 1865.
"The real story is here in the ground," said Dr. Chester DePratter, a University of South Carolina archaeologist who is heading up the project.
"When you see a hole in the ground, then you know that two soldiers spent two months in the winter of 1864-'65 in that hole, (and) it brings the story home. It's kind of like reading a travel book about Hawaii, and you go there, and you just don't trust what you memory is, you take pictures, and the pictures are the record and you can look at that. It's just like the archaeology in the ground."
The digs will continue until the end of April.

A Fort Worth, Texas man who allegedly tried to murder his mother by blowing up her house is in police custody.
Police say 46-year-old Santiago Gallegos became angry when his mother would not give him money to buy cigarettes.
He then took her out of her wheelchair and tried to fill her home with natural gas and lit a candle before he left the house.
Luckily, his mother was able to reach a phone by crawling on the floor.
Gallegos is a registered sex offender with an extensive criminal past and he could now face attempted murder charges.

I've been shooting with an old Automat for a whole now (as it's a lighter daily carry than my Hasselblad!) and decided it might be nice to be able to do portraits as well as general photography. I know I need either a Rolleinar I or II for this, but I've run into a minor snag.
My Automat is one of the earlier ones with the push on viewing lens and the Bay I taking lens. I thought I had purchased the right stuff to overcome that, but when I developed the first roll every shot came out blurry (shooting at approx f5.8 or so...). What am I missing? Is there a part I don't have or something I'm doing wrong? I've attached pics of the camera and the 3 pieces I have - Rolleipar Proxar II and a Rolleinar I and Rolleinar II. Any help would be much appreciated!

12 Times Conference Champs & Three State Titles
In the past fifteen years, the program is winner of THIRTEEN Western State Conference Championships, an Elite Eight Appearance in 2004, a Final Four Appearance in 2005, a State Runner Up in 2006, and THREE-time State Champions in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Furthermore, and under the leadership of Nabil, the program holds a record of 320 wins to 71 losses with 141-15 in conference which also includes a 66-game winning streak (December of 2010 to December 2012), and a 62-game home winning streak.
Most Recent Seasons (2011 & 2012)
In the 2011 and 2012 seasons, our program won an unprecedented 66 Wins to Zero losses and capped off the 2012 season with a State Championship which makes it THREE consecutive CCCAA state championships, and back-to-back undefeated seasons for the Brahmas.

Recap of the 2013 Season
In the 2013 season, and although the program fell short of four-peating, the team had a good season nonetheless as they won the Western State Conference for a 13th time in 14 years. A milestone that was only accomplished by the Rustlers of Golden West in the 80's and 90's. The 2013 squad had to overcome obstacles and adversities, from injuries, early season losses, and more importantly, the underlying pressure that they felt all season to four-peat, and they went on to win 14 out of the last 16 matches we played and do it the Brahma way.
This Past 2014 Season
After redshirting some players the previous year, the 2014 squad was plagued with injuries once again. The good news is that we return a good core and we will be deep in every position, athletic, fast, and have arms on the floor that will get us to play at a high level next season.
In the past eight years, 34 of our 41 graduating seniors received scholarships to play at different universities such as University of California Irvine, Concordia, Northern Arizona, Cal. State LA, UCLA, CSUN, UC San Diego, Washington State, Cal Poly Pomona, Fresno State, and most recently Kansas State, University of Idaho, Florida State, San Jose State, Truman State, Cal State Monterey Bay, University of Kansas, New Mexico University, University of San Francisco, and most recently University of Great Falls in Montana, Gonzaga, Chico State, University of Pittsburgh, UC Riverside, La Verne, West Texas A&M, University of Hawaii at Hilo, Central Connecticut State University, San Marcos, Cal State Bakersfield, and Loyola Marymount.

ChristianMingle Singles Ministries
Family Research Council (FRC) was founded in 1983 as an organization dedicated to the promotion of marriage and family and the sanctity of human life in national policy. FRC shapes public debate and formulates public policy that values human life and upholds the institutions of marriage and the family. Believing that God is the author of life, liberty, and the family, FRC promotes the Judeo-Christian worldview as the basis for a just, free, and stable society. Through books, pamphlets, media appearances, public events, debates and testimony, FRC's team of experienced policy experts review data and analyze proposals that impact family law and policy in Congress and the executive branch. FRC also strives to assure that the unique attributes of the family are recognized and respected through the decisions of the courts and regulatory bodies.

First African Methodist Episcopal Church in Los Angeles is the oldest church founded by African Americans in the City of Angels. In 1872, Ms. Biddy Mason received the vision from God to establish a church that would minister to the mind, body and soul of all who would join that small band of believers. That vision and small band of believers has grown to what is now a congregation of thousands of members and several dozen ministries within 13 corporations that bless and reach seekers in greater metropolitan Los Angeles.
David Colp
The Church of God Reformation movement began in the late 1800s as an experiment in Christian unity. The First Church of God is one of over 2500 congregations who trace their roots to this "experiment" in Christian unity. Their vision, in their own words is, "Simple. We want to build bridges that transform lives." These are bridges to Christ, each other and the world.

Flamingo Road Church is located in Cooper City, southwest of Fort Lauderdale and north of Miami. In spring 2003, Flamingo Road Church began to take advantage of a new growth opportunity by moving into a new 1600-seat auditorium. To date, they have seen attendance increase from 2,300 to over 10,000 and, in the last year, 1,535 people were baptized.
Jim Burgen
At Flatirons, they teach Biblical truths to help people find a better way to live with Jesus Christ. Their desire is for their followers to experience the love God has no matter where they are in their spiritual journey. Flatiron's vision is, "to bring the awesome life of Christ to a lost and broken world."
The Foursquare Church was founded by Aimee Semple McPherson in 1927 in Los Angeles. The Church believes that the Bible is the infallible word of God, the necessity of man's repentance and acceptance of Christ, Baptism/Communion, the eventual second coming of Christ, the Fall of Man and The Trinity.

Gateway Church is one of the fastest growing churches in the country. Many new and dynamic ministries have been and continue to be created to help minister to individuals and families. But in the midst of all this exciting activity, Gateway recognizes that church health is more important than numerical growth and church programs. At Gateway, God has a specific plan and purpose for each person's life. That's why the church is all about people.

In 1953 this de Havilland Beaver DHC-2 serial #526 was sent to Pakistan. It was used on wheels from 1953 to the mid 1980's to spray for mosquitoes, after retiring as a sprayer it was used in a flying club until the mid 1990's. An aircraft broker from Alaska purchased #526 and 3 other Beavers for resale. Beaver #526 was purchased and went through an extensive 3 year restoration in Canada. A few owners and many modifications later, Ryan Aviation Inc. purchased #526, changed the registration to N450RA and is operating it out of the Flagler County Airport located in Florida.
