State, King County burn bans expire after long dry spell
October 18, 2012
By Staff
NEW — 10 a.m. Oct. 18, 2012
State and King County fire officials ended burn bans in recent days, as the wildfire risk declined after a long dry spell.
The state Department of Natural Resources ended a burn ban on agency-protected lands at midnight Monday. The next day, the King County fire marshal lifted a burn ban for unincorporated King County.
Eastside Fire & Rescue is keeping a burn ban in place through Oct. 20 for Issaquah and communities served by the agency.
The state ban on outdoor burning applied to all Department of Natural Resources-protected public, private and tribal lands, including Tiger Mountain State Forest near Issaquah.
The county imposed a burn ban for unincorporated King County on July 15. The moratorium applied to all outdoor burning except for small recreational fires in established fire pits at approved campgrounds or private property with the owner's permission.

Law renames Windber bridge for slain state trooper
A Windber bridge is being renamed for a state trooper who was fatally shot by a man chased following a drunken traffic accident in 2002.
The Tribune-Democrat of Johnstown reported that the bill was signed into law this week renaming a bridge in Windber the Joseph Sepp Memorial Bridge.
The bridge carries 17th Street over Route 56 in Windber, the borough where the trooper grew up, about 60 miles east of Pittsburgh.
Sepp was a 34-year-old father of three when he was fatally shot by 54-year-old Mark Leach, of New Germany. Leach shot Sepp after refusing to surrender following the accident and a low-speech chase on Nov. 9, 2002, in Ebensburg. Sepp died the next day.
Leach died in October 2011 while serving a life prison term.

Staffers bailing on Hollerin' HalloranIan Weinstein in Queens Chronicle, April 11, 2013
Media Source
Understate (v): represent as less than is the case.
Example: Councilman Dan Halloran's (R-Whitestone) life has become somewhat difficult after he was snagged in an alleged bribery scheme a week ago. Actually, it's careening towards a professional hellhole.
How else can you describe the life of a man who has been virtually neutered at work, is hemorrhaging staffers and faces a legal and political trek through Dante's Inferno?
Really, would anyone want to trade places with Dan Halloran right now?
Halloran was snagged on corruption charges after being taped discussing an alleged pay-to-play scheme that would have redirected thousands of taxpayer dollars to a developer, then serving as a conduit for state Sen. Malcolm Smith's (D-Hollis) failed attempt at buying Wilson Pakula certificates to gain the Republican line for a mayoral run.
The Whitestone lawmaker's troubles now include the loss of two prominent staffers and a virtual lockdown on nearly all of his legislative authority.
The Monday evening departure of Chief of Staff Chrissy Voskerichian was the start of a power vacuum within Halloran's office.
"As I look forward to my first days off in nearly three years, I wish to thank the Council member's staff," she said in a public farewell sent to the press. "I have never met a group of people who were as hardworking and dedicated as his staff. I also wish to thank the countless members of the community who made the last three and a half years enjoyable. I loved meeting and working with so many outstanding and passionate community leaders, many of whom I now call friends."
Voskerichian's name was among the first mentioned by community members lamenting the news on April 2, when the councilman was arrested in the early morning and word of the allegations first started spreading throughout his 19th Council District.
The one person she did not thank in the 205-word statement? Halloran himself. But that did not stop him from thanking Voskerichian in a statement sent hours after her resignation.
"The council member greatly appreciates the hard work in service to the district that his entire staff have put forward, especially his chief of staff," the statement read, before jumping into the first person. "I am sure that Chrissy Voskerichian will continue to serve her community in many ways for years to come. The office continues to run smoothly and serve our constituents each day."
A day later, Halloran's legislative director, John Mulvey, also announced he was jumping ship, effective Friday. His email followed Voskerichian's tone and substance, including the lack of gratitude for Halloran.
"While he has no plans of resignation and looks forward to clearing his name, he also understands that times like these can cause some staff members to re-evaluate their career paths," Halloran's office said in a statement. "He is sincerely grateful for every staff member's service."
His effectiveness as a lawmaker shrunk after Council Speaker Christine Quinn (D-Manhattan) said his discretionary spending items will be re-evaluated and doled out at her discretion, as well as Councilman Leroy Comrie's (D-St. Albans) [see accompanying story on page 6].
The embattled councilman's future includes a court date which promises more peril than hope. The possibility of an entrapment defense has been floated among the chattering classes, but that would leave the burden of proof on Halloran's shoulders, according to Professor Ian Weinstein, associate dean of Fordham University's School of Law.
"They really have to show that the defendant would not have engaged in the conduct but for the intriguing suggestions, offers of money, etc.," he said. "It's a difficult defense."
The odds of a spectacular political recovery are long as well. Michael Krasner, Queens College political science professor and co-director of the Taft Institute for Government, said Halloran could take 15 to 20 years to dig himself out from under the weight of this scandal.
"Here's a guy who ran on questions of integrity and it turns out he has been lining his pockets in this bizarre situation," he said. "The natural reaction for the voter would be to say these are a bunch of crooks."

MI: Debate Over Effects of CCW Law Continue
The Detroit Free Press actually has a decent, unbiased piece on the effects of Michigan's "Shall Issue" CCW law, ten-years-on. Article is here.
While there are plenty of quotes from the Brady Bunch, most of them are rather laughable, including the old chestnut of "Blood in the streets."
The story also takes the VPC to task for the questionable statistics on killings by permit holders:
Several other "victims" in the VPC report appear to have been criminals themselves, shot attempting to rob legally armed citizens. But with 276,000 concealed pistol license holders, even the unscrubbed VPC numbers hardly establish evidence of a crime wave.
Read the whole thing as it is unusual for the Detroit Free Press to present a balance of arguments; they're usually rather anti-gun.

In the OHL, Brady Austin was plus-two with a secondary assist as Belleville smoked Mississauga 5-0. Austin has three helpers and a steady plus-six rating for the Bulls, who take a 3-2 series lead into Mississauga for Monday's game six.
In AHL action, the Rochester Americans scored four unanswered goals in the final period of play to earn a 4-2 victory at Hamilton. Evan Rankin struck twice in the rally, while Matt Ellis and Jerome Gauthier-Leduc added the other Amerks goals. Nathan Lieuwen earned the start, stopping 12 of 13 shots in the opening frame before a late-period collision caused him to watch the rest of the way. David Leggio came on in relief to close out his league-best 35th victory. The Amerks are back at home Friday when they host Lake Erie.
In the USHL, Judd Peterson was unable to connect as Cedar Rapids downed Youngstown 5-2. The St. Cloud State commit has collected an assist and eight shots on goal in four games since returning from an arm injury (missed five weeks). The RoughRiders visit Chicago on Friday.

5 Accent Areas for Your Deck
Stairs are a great way to add creativity to your deck.
There are countless ways to customize your deck. This
article presents some options for 5 specific areas:
- Benches
- Planters
- Railings
- Roofing
- Stairs
Benches can serve many purposes on a deck. In addition to
their obvious use as seating,
they can provide a barrier at the edge of a low deck, or a surface for plants
in containers, creating a multi-level potted garden show in the growing season.
Free Woodworking Plans has
lots of styles to consider, including Mission Style, a Heart Bench, and a Time
Out Bench. Free
Bench Plans also offers free woodworking plans for building deck benches,
including potting and storage benches.
No deck seems complete without planters
of some kind. Even a single planter of substantial size can add a beautiful,
cared-for look to a deck. If you're a do-it-yourselfer, you can build your own
planters – perhaps with materials left over from deck construction or other
projects. Garden centers and import shops are excellent places to find ceramic,
terra cotta, and faux stone planters. For inspiration, check out the garden
centers at your local Lowe's or The Home Depot.
Many homeowners will hire a contractor to build the
foundation and floor of their deck, but select different materials for the
railings and either install them themselves or with the help of a fellow
do-it-yourselfer. Railings add safety and also define the deck surface area.
They can be simple or attention-getting, and be accented with lighting or
planters. Do It
Yourself has a section devoted to deck railings and stairs, with examples
and plans and how-to information. Easyrailings
products are made of high-strength
aluminum alloys and have long-lasting powder coating finishes; they're great
looking, too.
As people become
more aware of the dangers of over-exposure to the sun's direct rays –
especially in the hot summer months, when decks are most often used – including
a roof in your deck's design makes a lot of sense. An excellent resource for
the do-it-yourselfer is the Best Deck Site, which
illustrates how to build a gazebo-style roof and provides tips for building,
materials needed, and useful checkpoints to be aware of in the process.
Awnings, or retractable roofing are other effective solutions for providing
shade for you, your family, and friends while enjoying your deck. Did you know
that, according to Retractable Awnings, by shading exterior windows and doors, cut the light
before it enters rooms, which can reduce interior heat by 77% (the American Society of Heating and Air Conditioning
Engineers). Reducing the heat in a room with retractable awnings can reduce
air conditioning use – and energy bills – by almost 25%."
If there's an area
to get really creative with, deck stairs is it. Stairs
usually encompass a very straightforward design element, too. You can stick
with the basics very successfully, or you can go for elongated steps lined with
lighting or plants, or build a meandering stairway through multiple levels of
your landscape. There are lots of how-to videos and articles available for
building deck stairs, calculating stringers, meeting building safety
requirements, etc. – just browse on the keywords "deck stairs" and you'll come
up with dozens of selections. For visual inspiration, check out Hickory Dickory Decks for a
photo gallery of different types of deck stairs.
By now, you can see
that with these 5 basic accent areas – or elements – of decks, you have
mix-and-match capabilities galore. Happy option-shopping!

The pressing questions are: Is Nigeria heading towards deconstruction or reconstruction?
Diaspora Nigerians are among the best and brightest on the world's stage but they do not have the privilege to vote in Nigeria elections because the Nigerian government does not currently grant voting rights to its citizens abroad.
It is time for Nigerians worldwide to have a genuine conversation about the country they want. We hope this will provide an opportunity to weigh in on this very important election.
Join the conversation on AV Teleforums.
Follow us as we take the conversation to the streets of New York City on Friday night.
The World is listening!
The State of the Union | Obama
in Politics
On Tuesday President Obama gave his annual State of the Union Address. What did he promise? How did Americans respond? Will congress support the president? Are President Obama's suggestions realistic or far-fetched? Our team takes on these important questions and more in tonight's episode of The Current Issues Show. Join Justin Weller, Nico Giannilli, and Tayor Armstrong to hear real people with honest opinions.
State of the Union illusion!
in Politics
Justin talks about why the state of the union is an illusion! The economy is not recovering today! The government has made the problems worse and will end in a future crisis much bigger than 2008. President Obama, the shadow of crisis has not passed!

'Hello' Joins List of Fastest Videos to Reach 100M Views
In less than a week, Adele's debut of her new single reached a milestone it takes most major music videos months to achieve. "Hello" crossed
100 million views in just five days
, making it the fastest video to reach it in 2015. It's the second-fastest video ever to hit that mark, trailing only "Gentleman," PSY's 2013 follow up to the global smash hit "Gangnam Style," which did it in four.
Four of the five quickest videos to cross that threshold are from female artists. Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball," Shakira and Rihanna's "Can't Remember to Forget You," and Nicki Minaj's "Anaconda" all saw explosive viewership for their much-discussed releases.
The 100 million-view mark was famously first crossed by another female singer, Avril Lavigne, whose original video for "Girlfriend" crossed in 2008.
Adele's earlier singles took longer to hit 100 million, and the explosive speed at which her latest release took off speaks to the scale of the audience of fans she's developed since.
The numbers here also speak to the global fanbase Adele has acquired. Over the weekend, "Hello" was the
most-viewed video in 92 different countries
ranging from Brazil, Greece, South Africa, France, Canada, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates.

Adele's New Single Played Over 1M Times…PER HOUR
Late last week, two of music's biggest stars dropped new singles, both of which saw explosive viewership numbers within hours of their release.
Over three years after her most-recent upload, Adele released the video for her new single "Hello" in the early hours of Friday morning (approximately 12amPT). Within 48 hours, it had been viewed
50 million times
, making it the biggest debut of any video on YouTube in 2015 and one of the most-watched music video debuts of all time.
In fact, "adele hello" was, by far, YouTube's top search on Friday and Saturday, and the video garnered as much as
1.6 million views in a single hour
, averaging over
1 million views per hour
over the first two days.
(For comparison, the release of the massively anticipated full trailer for "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens" peaked at
1.2 million views per hour
Meanwhile, Justin Bieber scored another massive debut -- third-largest music video debut of 2015 -- and did so... without being in the video. The release -- designated as a "dance video" -- for the song "Sorry" was seen approximately
20 million times
in its first 48 hours.
Both releases also helped grow these artists' respective YouTube audiences considerably as well, with Adele gaining
over 400,000 subscribers
over the weekend and Bieber picking up
over 150,000
in the three days following his new vid.
If you're one of the handful of people who have missed these two premieres, you can see them both below.

Billion-view videos are happening faster on YouTube
Wiz Khalifa
and his video
"See You Again"
hit a milestone this week, becoming the tenth video ever to cross
1 billion views
on YouTube. At
184 days
, "See You Again" is the second-fastest video to hit 1 billion in YouTube history (after
"Gangnam Style"
), and the quickest of the past year. Khalifa and
Charlie Puth's
tribute to the late Paul Walker joins what appears to be an ever-accelerating trend in billion-view videos.
For ten years, the Billion View Club was one of the most exclusive circles on YouTube, but in 2015, things changed. At the start of this past June, only two videos had reached that echelon. But in just the past six months, EIGHT additional videos crossed the mark. Here are the videos ranked by views with a graph showing the trajectory of these videos over the past five years.
As you can see below, the rate at which videos are accelerating to this milestone appears to be increasing as well. The average number of days it took for a video to cross 1 billion is
484 days
, but of the videos that have done it, the three most recent crossed it at an average of
241 days
Other fun facts:
In what may be a surprise to Americans, Enrique Iglesias'
became the second non-English video to cross 1 billion views. According to
YouTube Music Insights
, one-third of Iglesias' views come from Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina alone.
Only one of the videos is for a debut single, Meghan Trainor's 2014 hit
"All About That Bass."
The first to reach the milestone was PSY with his K-pop smash hit
"Gangnam Style"
on December 21, 2012, at a record pace of
160 days
from its upload, a record that still stands today.
Next was Justin Bieber with what had been, for years, YouTube's most viewed video,
on March 2, 2014.
Katy Perry and Taylor Swift each have had two videos hit this mark,
"Dark Horse"
"Blank Space"
"Shake It Off"
Next closest to a billion: One Republic's
"Counting Stars."

The nose is one of the most noticeable parts of the human body. It's there for everyone to see, hence the expression "as plain as the nose on your face" when something is obvious. But despite that, it's something we often don't think about until we get a cold or have trouble breathing. The nose is a complex organ, one we use for smelling and breathing. Taking care of the nose is important. Preventing and treating nasal symptoms due to cold and allergies not only makes us feel better, it helps us remain healthy. This is because the nose plays an important role in filtering the air that enters our body.
It grows throughout our lifetimes. In ancient Rome, it was considered a sign of leadership to be born with a crooked nose. Several modern-day celebrities are famous for recognizable noses, while others pay thousands of dollars in search of the perfect nose that will improve their appearance. It's time to learn more about this remarkable organ.MORE INFORMATION

Profar hitting streak reaches 28 games
Double-A Frisco shortstop Jurickson Profar waited until his final at-bat on Friday night to push his hitting streak to 28 games.
Profar tripled to lead off the ninth inning of a 5-2 loss to San Antonio (San Diego) for his only hit in three at-bats. Profar is batting .325 with a .530 slugging percentage during the streak, longest in organized baseball this season.
San Antonio right-hander Josh Geer, of Forney, held Frisco hitless for the first seven innings. It was Geer's first start at the Double-A level since 2007. He made 24 appearances with San Diego in 2008-09.

Locally produced services can make great gifts
As the holidays approach, the giant Asian factories are kicking into high gear to provide us monstrous piles of cheaply produced goods — merchandise that has been produced at the expense of our labor forces. This year will be different. This year, Americans will give the gift of genuine concern for each other at home. At gift giving time, there is no longer the old excuse, that nothing can be found produced at home by our own citizens.
Oh ... Yes, here is a list! Think outside the box, people! Who says a gift needs to fit in a shoe box, wrapped in Chinese produced wrapping paper?
* Everyone — gets their hair cut. How about gift certificates from your local hair salon or barber?
* Gym membership? It's appropriate for all ages who are thinking about some health improvement!
* Who wouldn't appreciate getting their car detailed? Small and locally owned detail shops and car washes would love to sell you a gift certificate or a book of gift certificates.
* Are you one of those extravagant givers who think nothing of buying a Chinese-made flat-screen TV? Perhaps that grateful gift receiver would like his driveway sealed, or lawn mowed for the summer, or driveway plowed all winter, or games at the local golf course.
* There are a lots of owner-run restaurants — all offering gift certificates. And, if your intend isn't the fancy eatery sort, what about a half dozen breakfasts at the local breakfast joint. Remember, folks this isn't about big National chains — this is about supporting your home town and its businesses with their financial lives on the line to keep their doors open for you!
* How many people couldn't use an oil change for their car, truck or motorcycle, done at a shop run by the local working guy?
* Thinking about a heartfelt gift for Mom? Mom would LOVE the services of a local cleaning lady for a day.
* My computer could use a tune-up, and I know I can find some young guy who is struggling to get his repair business up and running.
* OK, you were looking for something more personal. Local crafts people spin their own wool and knit them into scarves. They make jewelry, and pottery and beautiful wooden boxes.
* Plan your holiday outings at a local, owner operated restaurants and leave your server a nice tip. And, how about going out to see a play or ballet at your hometown theatre.
* Musicians need love too, so find a venue showcasing local bands or concerts.
* Honestly! Do you REALLY need to buy another ten thousand Chinese lights for the house? If you have lots of cash to burn, leave the mailman, trash guy or babysitter a nice BIG tip.
* Christmas is no longer about draining our pockets, so that China can build another glittering city. Christmas is now about caring about US (We the People), encouraging American small businesses to keep plugging away to follow their dreams. And, when we care about our own citizens, we care about our communities, and the benefits come back to us in ways we could not imagine.
THIS is the new Christmas tradition!!
This is a revolution of caring about each other, and isn't that what Christmas is about?

|Stability of disability among PACE enrollees: financial and programmatic implications.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 10345415 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|This article examines the experience of the first 11 Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) programs. It investigates changes in functional status of participants in relation to length of enrollment in the program and individual risk characteristics. Our findings indicate that mature programs experience stable disability mix over time, supporting the rationale for the current PACE payment method. However, significant differences exist between programs, suggesting that payment rates could be more program specific. Analysis of the effect of patient characteristics at admission on the likelihood of improvement in functional status identified areas for quality improvement. The implications of this study have increasing importance in light of the expected expansion of PACE to approximately 100 sites by the year 2000.

green hedges give good cover
blood drips on clover
sun waves off dark soil
flowers grow only in shade
bees hive drips sweet wax
in shade cow chews cud
waits for dark to find water
sleeps on top of mound

(The poem is based on The Short Story of O Henry " The Last Leaf". I was reminded of it while I saw a last leaf in the winter of 2011 while living at Concord, NC)
One leaf left on tree
Not a sound of the sadness
Neither the despair
One leaf left on tree
No undue unhappiness
Neither any pain.
One leaf left on tree
All by itself in the air
Feels no forlornness.
One leaf left on tree
It spends itself in swaying
Breathing in the breeze.
Last leaf not the end
When tumbles down as time comes
Hundreds of buds sprout.

Riding In Botswana
The glorious landscapes of Botswana provide stunning riding country; the Okavango Delta, the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, the Kalahari Desert and the Limpopo Valley are all very different and offer completely different scenery, animals and birds.
All of our recommended riding options in Botswana have been tried and tested; they are very popular and each very different! There is a range of choice, depending on whether you wish to do an extended safari, sleeping out each night, or to return to the lodge each evening. There are other activities in each area for any non-riders.
The Okavango is one of Africa's most impressive wildlife areas. As famous as Tanzania's Serengeti or Kenya's Masai Mara, the Okavango is the world's only inland delta, and is an area of outstanding natural beauty. Its lily-scattered flood plains and palm-fringed islands host exceptionally high concentrations of Africa's big game in a most beautiful setting. The Okavango is an area that exceeds expectations and would certainly stake its claim as the world's best safari destination.
Okavango Horse Safaris is extremely professional in every aspect of the business, especially safety. They make a huge effort to ensure that all their guests are happy with the horse they ride, the saddle they sit in, the food they eat and the wine they drink! They use various breeds of horses from full and part bred thoroughbreds, with quality English saddles and trail saddles with seat savers, pommel pouches and water bottles. Safaris are for five, seven or ten nights.
Wonderful days are spent cantering across grassy plains and splashing through flooded watermeadow, stopping to watch breeding herds of elephant feed in the shade of a palm island, lechwe cavorting through the reed beds or buffalo gorging on fresh grass. A long day ride one day will take you to a new area and to a tented 'fly' camp from which to explore further afield and on other days, a shorter ride may be followed by a leisurely lunch in camp then perhaps an afternoon walk to watch the Delta's array of birds or an evening drive to spot leopard and hyena with PJ, an expert and inspiring guide.
They have four camps in a concession area of 2500 square kilometres. There is one base camp and three fly camps. They are accessible depending on the amount of water that has come down in the flood from Angola each year. Owned and run by PJ and Barney Bestelink and it has been in operation for twenty-five years.
Limpopo Valley Horse Safaris are also very professional and make the most of their stunning location in the east of Botswana as far north as the Limpopo River flows in an area called The Tuli Block.
Kanana Safaris offer horse riding on their private concession in the middle of the Kalahari Desert. This is a different horse safari, as you return to base every night and the atmosphere is far more casua; fewer horses but with good tack. The desert animals live on this concession. There is no big game to see like elephant, buffalo, hippo and the water dependent animals but they do have masses of eland, springbok, kudu, hartebeest, zebra, giraffe and also eleven rhino that they have bred, which is a great attraction.
There are horse safaris at the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans at an area called Gweta, run by an English girl called Dany Hancock, best from May to September. Outside of these months it is unpleasantly hot.

What's the biggest blocker to you shipping something today?
Getting started?
Coming up with an idea?
Too many other seemingly important things to do?
Think about the process you need to go though to go from start to finish.
Write it down.
Here's mine as a writer of a blog post.
- Blog post idea.
- Research.
- Writing.
- Editing.
- Formatting and Publishing.
I am find the first 3 steps easy. I am rubbish (beyond rubbish) at the last 2.
I hate editing. By the time I drag myself through it I am tired and find it hard to focus on formatting and publishing. If I am able to skip the editing part then I do like the final step.
I have identified that the thing blocking me is editing. Therefore that is what I need to work on and improve.
This is my experience, but I would love to hear yours.
Write down your creative process in steps from start to finish (do it in the comments below). It doesn't matter is you are a writer, photographer, painter, jewelry maker, entrepreneur or anything.
Try and make it 5 steps or less – we're just talking the big milestones here.

Local and federal authorities are searching for a woman who they say robbed a bank inside a Walmart in Kingwood.
It happened around 9:20 a.m. Monday at the Woodforest Bank inside the Walmart on Northpark.
The FBI said the older woman, believed to be between 45-50 years old, walked into the bank, threatened the teller and demanded money.
Officials said the woman handed the teller a blue bag. After receiving cash, the woman walked out of the store.
Police said it is unclear how much cash the woman got away with.
Officials described the suspect as a white woman. 5 feet 7 inches tall, 130 pounds with dirty blonde hair. She was last seen wearing jeans, a red coat, white tennis shoes and black gloves.

I have an append query and I want to update a table in my current database with a table from an external database (Reporter_Update). The external databases' directory path is stored in a text box (Text109) on one of the current databases' forms (MainFormFilter).
How do you reference a form in SQL? (the bit in green below)
How do you concatenate two strings together in SQL (red below)
How do you write a string in SQL? (blue below)
INSERT INTO Dwelling
IN Forms!MainFormFilters!Text109 &" "& "\Reporter_Update.accdb"
SELECT Dwelling.*
FROM Dwelling;
Hopefully you can clearly see my confusion. I'm not use to SQL and get muddled between it and VBA.

We went to Scotland about six weeks ago for Anna's wedding. So far this picture is the winner, but there are a couple other contenders I'm considering taking the time to work on. It's amazing to get your film back and respond to only one picture you took. What's up with that?

Prep girls basketball: Cyprus relies on defense to spark offense
Magna • The Cyprus girls basketball team had a simple game plan last season: "Feed the beast." When the Pirates needed points, the ball went to their star player, Lori Parkinson.
But with Parkinson graduated and playing for Southern Utah University, Cyprus' philosophy has changed. This time, the beasts are feeding themselves.
"Our significant offense comes off our defensive, creating havoc and turnovers," Cyprus coach Josh Adams said.
Nobody is doing that better than seniors Marquessa Gilson and Abby Barrett.
"If there could be co-defensive MVPs, it's them," Adams said.
Barrett plays in the post but has the quickness to get into the passing lanes and the speed to beat players the length of the floor after a steal. She had five steals her average on the season to go with 14 points and 22 rebounds against Hunter on Friday.
"The coaches I've talked to all say she has a motor like they've never seen before," Adams said. "Whenever she is in the game, the energy level goes up."
Gilson, meanwhile, shadows the opposing team's best player each game. It doesn't matter if she's a point guard or a center.
"I just go out there and play with heart," Gilson said. "Try to hold them below their average."
That's usually the case.
Last season, Gilson blanketed Hunter star Dezz Ramos, who now plays at Weber State. Earlier this season, Cyprus held Hillcrest's Whitney Nemelka to 15 points, which was 4 points below her average. But 8 of those points came in a span of about two minutes when Adams gave Gilson a breather.
Neither was more challenging than the player Gilson guarded every day in practice last season.
"I think Lori was by far the hardest. She was big and quick and smart, too," Gilson said. "She challenged me."
Gilson's offense has improved this season, and she's averaging better than 10 points a game for the Pirates, who entered the week 6-2. She filled up the stat sheet with 14 points, seven rebounds, eight steals, three blocks and four assists against Hunter.
But defense still is her hallmark.
"Marquessa's nickname is Crouching Tiger because she's everywhere," Adams said. "She's unique that way. Most of the players are looking to score, and I think Marquessa would much rather have a stop."
Losing Parkinson left Cyprus with a void, but Gilson and Barrett have helped fill it.
"We all had to work on our game and step it up," Barrett said.
"I'm more confident this year than I was last year," Adams added. "We have some work to do, but with our defense, we can go a long way."

Reviews of Denis Chan Landscape Architect
Joe Hassarati 1 reviewI have known Denis for about five years. In that time, Denis has carried out the landscape design for me on a number of my projects.
Denis designs have been excellent with features pleasing to me as the developer and also pleasing to the various councils I have dealt with in that time.
Denis is very efficient, prompt and reliable and I have found him to be a very pleasant person to deal with.
I have no hesitation in recommending Denis for any project he wishes to undertake.
For over 30 years I've been involved in the construction industry, and utilised many landscape architects, but none like Denis.
Denis was given a concise design brief which he translated into a masterpiece, where his application and design were simply sublime and flawless.
From the commencement to the conclusion of the project, his professional services never ceased to amaze me as he created my family's own private paradise that left me in awe.
I look forward to working with Denis in the future and have no hesitations in recommending his services.
