SOCCKET: Energy-Generating Soccer Ball Kicks Off Production
Posted By Charley Cameron On March 16, 2013 @ 12:41 pm In carousel showcase,Design,eco kids,Environment,green gadgets,Green Lighting,Inhabitots,Innovation,Interactive Objects,Kinetic Energy,News,Renewable Energy | 3 Comments
A few years ago Uncharted Play [2] unveiled designs for an energy-generating soccer ball [3] that can generate power through play—and now the company has launched a Kickstarter campaign [4] to go into full-scale production of the SOCCKET ball. Able to power an LED light [5] for three hours after just 30 minutes of play, SOCCKET's creators intend for the ball to provide a fun source of much-needed electricity for young people in the developing world—in areas where many still rely on kerosene lamps or candlelight in order to work after sundown. With their Kickstarter campaign rapidly gaining support, Uncharted Play hopes to be able to ramp up production of the SOCCKET to distribute the devices to communities in need around the globe.

Roseville, Granite Bay water polo players are headed to Junior Olympics
The Sacramento Girls 16U Black water polo team defeated American River Club 5-3 to win the Central California Junior Olympic Qualifying Tournament last weekend in Oakdale.
Driver Grace Reego, who plays at Granite Bay High School, scored from outside in the second half, and on the next play, she earned an ejection and scored her second five-meter goal to help Sac Polo come from behind for the victory.
The team will compete in the National Junior Olympics in August in San Jose.
Sac Polo sailed through three games against Ellis Club of Tracy, Lodi Club and SOAK Club of Oakdale before beating Clovis Club 8-6 in the semifinals.
Hole set Michal Andreatta of Roseville hit two perfect lobs to help Sac Polo pull away from a 3-3 halftime tie, set guard Aelish Guinn of Rocklin made a quick shot, and Reego scored on a six-on-five and again on a high outside shot for the win.
"Our girls are well-conditioned, and they had more energy in the fourth quarter than Clovis," Sac Polo coach Mike Saldana said. "I was very proud that they stayed with their game plan and kept up their confidence against one of the toughest teams at the tournament."
Woodcreek grad Everett signs with Montana school
Sami-Jo Everett, a 2010 graduate of Woodcreek High School, helped Southwestern Oregon Community College's softball team to a 36-7 record in the spring and next will play on scholarship for Montana State University Billings.
Everett hit .279 with six doubles and four home runs, including a grand slam, for the Lakers, who went 18-2 to win the South Region of the Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges.
She was named to the NWAACC South Region All-Stars second team and graduated with an Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer degree.
Granite Bay golfers win on home course
Bryan Wise shot an even-par 71 to claim the overall boys championship in The First Tee of Greater Sacramento Jr. Tour tournament at Granite Bay Country Club. Wise played in the spring for Granite Bay High School's state-championship team.
Two Grizzlies teammates performed well in The First Tee tourney. Jeffrey Inouye-Wong shot a 73 to win boys 14-15, and Chuck Pedone shot a 76 to place second in boys 16-18.
Michael Mencaccy of Rocklin won boys 16-18 with a 73, and Drake Mendenhall of Granite Bay won boys 12-13 with a 75. Jack Sutch of Roseville finished third in boys 14-15 with an 81.
Virgie Velazquez and Neeve Chen, both of Roseville, won the girls 15-18 and 12-14 titles. Velazquez shot an 81 and Chen an 85.
Sadie Strain was the overall girls champion with an 80.
Roseville kicker wins two competitions
Roseville resident Andrew Endicott has won two competitions at kicking camps this summer.
Endicott, who will be a senior at Jesuit High School, won the kickoff competition at the University of Notre Dame camp June 12. He then won the punting competition at the Fresno State camp June 19.
Endicott played soccer in the Placer United and Roseville Select programs before joining the football team at Jesuit in his freshman year.

Primary results of the SELECTION trial of daclizumab HYP in relapsing multiple sclerosis
G. Giovannoni, R. Gold, K. Selmaj, E. Havrdova, X. Montalban, E.-W. Radue, D. Stefoski, M. McNeill, J. Rana, J. Elkins, G. ONeill (London, GB; Bochum, DE; Lodz, PL; Prague, CZ; Barcelona, ES; Basel, CH; Chicago, US; Maidenhead, GB; Cambridge, US)
Background: The SELECTION trial was a 52-week, randomized, double-blind trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of extended treatment with DAC HYP as well as a 24-week treatment interruption.
Methods: 517 (92%) of eligible subjects who completed treatment in the 52-week SELECT registrational trial entered the SELECTION trial. Subjects who had received placebo in SELECT (n=170) were randomized to receive monthly 150 mg or 300 mg SC DAC HYP. Subjects who had received DAC HYP in SELECT (n=347) were randomized to continue treatment at their current dose or to a 24-week treatment interruption (washout followed by treatment reinitiation at original dose). Since efficacy of the two DAC HYP dose groups were similar, results were combined for reporting.
Results: 92% (n=474) of randomized subjects completed the 52-week treatment phase of the study. Among patients who initiated treatment with DAC HYP in SELECTION, the 52-week ARR was reduced by 59% compared to the prior year (0.18 vs. 0.43; p<0.001) and the percent of subjects with confirmed 3-month disability progression was reduced by 50% compared to the prior year (5% vs. 10%; p =0.033). Among patients randomized to remain on continuous treatment with DAC HYP over 2 years, the ARR from year 1 was sustained during year 2 (0.148 vs. 0.165) while there were fewer new/newly enlarging T2 lesions in year 2 versus year 1 (1.2 vs. 1.85; p =0.032). After 2-years of DAC HYP therapy, 88% were free of confirmed disability progression. Among subjects randomized to treatment interruption, there was no evidence for disease rebound (mean Gd+ lesions at pre-treatment baseline vs. end of washout: 1.6 vs. 1.1). There was one death in the trial due to autoimmune hepatitis in the 300 mg treatment interruption group. The incidence of serious infections (2% vs. 2%) and serious cutaneous events (1% vs. 1%) was similar in SELECTION compared to SELECT while AST/ALT elevations >5x ULN were less common (1.5% vs. 4%). In subjects who remained on continuous treatment in the low-dose group (DAC HYP 150 mg), there were no AST/ALT elevations >5x ULN or serious cutaneous events during the second year of treatment.
Summary: These results support the efficacy findings of the SELECT trial and indicate that the efficacy of DAC HYP is sustained through the second year of therapy. Risks appeared similar compared to the first of year of treatment, and there was no evidence of rebound disease activity after a 24-week washout.

MuppeTelevision was the TV station run by the Muppets on The Jim Henson Hour. The station was capable of picking up television signals from throughout the universe, and it was up to Kermit the Frog, who served as director, to decide which shows the viewing audience would see.
Most of the acts were viewed on television monitors, while backstage antics happened in the Muppet Central control room. Just about every act would be introduced from the control room, in contrast to the previous Muppet Show, where characters would come on-stage to introduce acts. Also unlike The Muppet Show, while almost every episode had a human guest star, the episodes also featured other human characters, most notably Bootsie and Brad. Writer Chris Langham also portrayed a number of human characters in these segments.
The first half of eight out of twelve Jim Henson Hour episodes were dedicated to MuppeTelevision, as well as the opening of Episode 104: Dog City and some scenes in Episode 110: Secrets of the Muppets.
- Episode 101: Science Fiction
- Episode 102: Aquatic Life
- Episode 103: Monster Telethon
- Episode 105: The Ratings Game
- Episode 107: Health and Fitness
- Episode 108: Musicians
- Episode 109: Garbage
- Episode 112: Food
Recurring Cast and Crew
- Characters: Bean Bunny, Clifford, Digit, Gonzo, Kermit the Frog, Leon, Lindbergh, Link Hogthrob, Vicki, Waldo C. Graphic
(see also: MuppeTelevision Characters)
- Writers: Jerry Juhl, Tim Burns, Barbara Samuels, Mark Saltzman, Bill Prady, Chris Langham
- Performers: Jim Henson, Dave Goelz, Fran Brill, Steve Whitmire, Kevin Clash, Jerry Nelson, Dan Redican, Gordon Robertson, Rob Mills, Bob Stutt
MuppeTelevision segments have been rerun, by themselves, on CTS in Canada (part of the package that also includes The Muppet Show and Muppets Tonight). Since the show is now only half an hour long, Jim Henson's introduction is trimmed so that he is only talking about the MuppeTelevision half of the program. The title, meanwhile, is changed to The Jim Henson Show. As a result, the first half of the opening theme is flipped left-to-right so that the Griffin's crystal ball lines up with the letter O in "show" rather than "hour."

Sex in Science Class: Middle-schoolers hook up ... in class
Several students witnessed the undescribed sex act, which reportedly happened when the teacher stepped out of the classroom. If you close your eyes and visualize every 13-year-old boy's fantasy, you can probably imagine what happened. Vividly. What hath Bill Clinton wrought?
Remember the good ol' days, when high schoolers talked more about sex than actually doing it? When you made out in the back seat on Lover's Lane? When you were embarrassed to take off your clothes in a junior-high locker room?
Well, forget them. Those days are apparently long gone.

I read the article, and ought to be shocked and outraged.
I am not even very surprised.
Perhaps working for a public school system, as I do, I have become jaded and bitter about what goes on in our schools. Which, by the way, was certainly exacerbated by the teacher stepping out of the classroom momentarily, but was almost entirely the fault of the parents of the children in question.
Had these parents taught their children modesty, self-discipline, restraint, respect for self/others, and about the consequences of early, unprotected sexual activity, this might not have happened.
(Or it might not have happened until the children were a bit older, approaching rebel-hood, anyway. Which wouldn't make it right, but maybe not AS wrong?)
Schools can provide a safe environment for learning academic material, but are not a good place for children to learn the socially acceptable standards of behavior. Parents need to make certain this is done AT HOME.
For the clueless: Parents, teach your daughters that they should keep their pants and panties pulled UP, and their skirts DOWN! Teach your sons not to try to tease and humiliate the little girls into doing naughty things or playing touchy-feely.
(And just for the record: I want to know WHY the teacher stepped out and how long she was away!)

I wonder where we are going with our kids. The parents seem to feel that their kid would do nothing wrong. The kids think they have the right to do what they want...
I'm afraid we have brought this upon our selves.We don't punish our kids, we want to be friends. They see what other parents let their kids do and how easy it is to fool others. In my day, if I got in trouble at school, my mother knew about it before I got home. She was a tough taskmaster.
- 11:22 AM, October 08, 2007
I remember the days of being afraid to passing notes in class. In reference to what Jill said I agree. I was just talking about this during lunch today with friends. We all have kids of varying ages. We decided that their definite parenting theories out there. I believe in teaching your children that there are consequences for their actions. My father taught us this and it has served me well. The friendship with my children will come later in life right now they needs parents who will guide them and teach them how to make smart decisions.
- 5:26 PM, October 09, 2007
This goes further than teaching your daughters to keep their pants up and skirts down and your sons to not tease and humiliate. Its more about what is acceptable behavior in society, having self respect, taking responsibility and learning responsibility for ones actions and so much more.
Parents stopped teaching their children long ago. Well I say parents. What I mean is most parents. Most parents leave the parenting up to the schools now days.
Its the schools job to TEACH the children math, reading, english. Its our jobs as parents to teach everything else. Its our jobs as parents to PARENT our children and not be their friend. And our jobs as parents to realize that while times our changing and have changed we don't have to let our children run around like idiots.
Everything our children do at young ages reflects back on us as parents. But so many people live with the "wont happen to me" mentality. People simply believe it wont happen to them and fail to educate their children. With stds and pregnancy being on the rise parents need to educate their children more. WAY MORE!
When I was pregnant with my oldest (she is 8) a girl I had once babysat got pregnant as well. She was 13!!! She now has 5 kids. she is now 21/22 years old.. She is married now of course but the whole thing blows my mind.

Yellow Jacket Creek scored a 25 in the bugs we found. Chimacum Creek scored 21 we got that score because they brought some containers filled with water and we looked through the water with a spoon. Group 1 of the bugs was intolerant and it was worth 4 points. Group 2 was a little bit more tolerant and it was worth 3 points. Group 3 was really tolerant and it was worth 2 points. Group 4 was exttremely tolerant and those bugs were worth 1 point. We found a few live scuds but most of all the bugs were dead because the water in Chimacum Creek is cold and the water we had was warm because of the room tempature.

Mousasi, round 1 by armbar
King mo will continue to make an ass of himself, and then dance back out of the ring in his Burger King motif while white girls hold an umbrella over his dumbass.
mysryluvscmpany April 17, 2010
lawal is a talented fighter but its all overshadowed with his ignorance…mousasi is prolly gonna rip his arm or neck off…i dunno bout u but anybody who would get in the cage and fight w/shoes on is an idiot.. look up the vid its funny.
shocktime April 17, 2010
All the King Mo hate is funny considering he was the most beasty college wrestler p4p in the whole country just a few years ago. If any of you have ever wrestled you'd know that's some serious stuff. He's legit trains with guys like Babalu and Wandy so he'll have some good sub defense. King Mo via Ground n Pound KO!
blzd April 17, 2010
captamerica April 17, 2010
Jesus Christ that was a boring fight for most of it. Gegard just seemed like he didn't care. I understand his personality is to remain calm, but when your opponent lays on you for four rounds, it's time to step it up.
Also, King Mo got pretty bruised up while he was on top. His ground-and-pound is suspect.
I think if Mousasi would've tried to stand up and throw rather than "wait for Mo to tire out," he would've won this fight big time. The only thing King Mo did any better than Mousasi was takedowns.
In any case, shitty fight. There are great wrestlers and there are great fighters. King Mo is in the former for now. Hopefully, he develops into the latter.
HungryRicco April 17, 2010
Shocktime is right.
Funny people still clown on Mo his wrestling is awesome.
twoface April 17, 2010
great fight..Mo just wanted it more.
2-1=titleshot April 17, 2010
Mousasi just gave his belt away…
Lawal took his one dimensional style and won a title in seven fight. Congrats.
GreatKing April 17, 2010
I think it's safe to say that Mousasi is a little overrated. You don't loose to a guy who is inexperienced and has no cardio.
Bad Mousasi, bad!
Bas Ruten April 17, 2010
mysryluvscmpany-> typical uninformed new mma fan, sorry probably a "UFC" fan. doofus, look at some old school badass MMA fights in PRIDE, shoes and GIs were allowed.
CalmStone April 18, 2010
King Mo needs to work on his cardio, because he gassed pretty bad early. But, smart use of the powerful take-downs earned him the victory.
The man talks crap, but he is a focused, hungry individual, and will dominate the weight class for some time.
bigsexy April 18, 2010
msyry your the ignoramus, fighting in shoes is a great advantage for striking, takedowns and kicks. its good 4 king mo 2 be thought of as an idiot 2 a guy who is clearly a moron, that means hes doing something right.
Machita April 18, 2010
HAHAHAHA, **** u all haters, there u go, MO can talk but he can back it up so now just stfu and don't hate.
Bruno THX for the vid.
Enkilis April 18, 2010
blah blah, Awsome job of gassing out and laying on your opponent for 5 rounds, wtf yes Mousasi should of been better at getting a sub off or getting to his feet but he worked off his back and was more effective there than Mo was on top so its pathetic imo that they give someone the fight for just double legging and laying .. its pathetic and needs to be rethought on the scoring. Mousasi though Im sure learned from this what his weakness is and thats Wrestling. Mo looked like shit to me but Mousasi didnt look much better.
shocktime April 18, 2010
Bring on the King Mo hate! I'm tellin you being a wicked wrestler is best base for MMA. Why do you think Brock can come in and just start wreckin vets of the sport! and GSP wrestling freak! Boring win for MO, but he's got 7 fights and is a champ by defeating a awesome fighter in Mousassi. Is he legit now ppl? Never under estimate a guy who's strong as a bull with wicked wrestling.

for sum reason i had a feeling mousasi was gonna lose u, just get that gut feeling and it came through thankfully for him he's only 24 and can fix anything that he has to fix right now and can come back for a rematch, as for lawal he needs to work on a lot of things but his wrestling is gonna get him out of the most tightest spots good for him he worked (but he did get out struck) and eventually came out with the fight.
Chris808 April 18, 2010
I dont see how he won! Mousasi had the harder puches from the bottom and in the stand up!
Jurkerbor April 18, 2010
Takedowns without G´n´P afterwards shouldn´t be scored.
Mo is so onedimensional. Mousasi looked passive, withuout motivation, bored…I feel disappointed with the scoring system and Mousasi performance, he is much superior than Mo.

round 1
Mousasi dominated the stand up, Lawal got good ground and pound, mousasi answered well on his back. by the end of the round Lawal had nothing to offer standing or on the ground, all he had were take downs, he even let Mousasi back up, knowing Mousasi had him figured out and that he had nothing left to offer in gnp fashion. 10-9 Lawal
round 2
Mousasi dominated the stand up and the ground, Lawal had nothing to offer + was gased out. Mousasi got Lawal's back but Lawal was saved by the bell. 10-8 Mousasi
round 3
Mousasi getting the better of the stand up, Lawal is gased out and has no defence to leg kicks. Lawal gets effective gnp 10-9 Lawal
round 4
Lawal gets take downs at will for Mousasi does not bother defending them. aparently trained to fight of his back vs stopping take downs, he takes some punishment but most strikes land in his guard, while mousasi's strikes land on Lawal's head 10-9 Lawal
round 5
Mousasi gets taken down and pounded in his guard but has more effective strikes from the botom, presses the action and dominates the stand up with obvious superior striking to a gased Lawal who has nothing left to offer standing. Lawal runs away from the action and goes for take downs until the end. 10-9 Mousasi – 1 point deduction for illegal blow = 9-9 round
Mousasi was obviously the better fighter but did not pres the action enough, with more leg strikes/action he would have won. Mousasi gave the decision to Lawal who just tried harder for it (even though he was far inferior of a fighter in the fight). Lawal will lose in their rematch once Mousasi gets himself back to title contention.
omaha April 18, 2010
Ridiculous. There is no excuse for two opponents in a title fight to be gassed by the third round. Mousasi did nothing to stuff the takedown, or capitalize when Mo was rocked. And the absurdity of Lawal to expend as much energy and take as much damage while in the dominant position is only eclipsed by the fact that he won a title doing it!
thaddiusluster April 18, 2010
Mousasi's head was in the clouds he needed a reality check; focus on the here & now! not on Dream's Light-Heavyweight tourney next month or on his aspirations for the Heavyweight crown but on what's in front: Lawal.
Prop's to Lawal for defeating such a highly skilled opponent; not in the most exciting or fan endearing method but a victory none the less.
People gotta acknowlegde the fact that Mousasi was at times 1 or 2 punches, knees or kicks from scoring a TKO or KO.
The Stank April 18, 2010
Sorry UFC nuthuggers but these guys are good!
Mo did a good job but was in trouble in the 3rd.
Good night of FREE fights!
brian kenny April 18, 2010
just imagine what shogun or machida would do to either one of these guys… both are overrated
mscash April 18, 2010
What the hell happened to Mousasi?
Did King Mo get into his head with all that pre-fight bullshit talking?
Either way, King Mo was taking Mousasi down at will. And to think I had predicted Mousasi to win…I missed it by a mile.
Darren April 18, 2010
Mousasi won that fight off his back, Look at the damage Mo took, Mousasi took no damage. Even the punch stats showed that Mousasi won the fight. All that mouthy Mo did was take Mousasi down and could not do anything with Mousasi. Mousasi won that fight!!
PitFighterZ April 18, 2010
@captamerica: You're right! King Mo didn't show much, but at least he came in to win this fight. Mousasi's plan to let Mo get tired was clearly stupid as Mousasi got as tired as Mo. If you want to fatigue a wrestler, use strikes to keep the distance, and let the wrestler waste energy in FAILED take downn attempts.
It's pathetic that Mousasi didn't even try to either get out of the way or sprawl in any of Mo's take downs.
I don't care about the score in this fight and I don't care about who is supposed to be the better fighter: Mousasi didn't do anything to deserve his belt in this fight. I hope that will be a lesson to him and that will motivate him.
If you you are going in a cage to fight, for the sake of all gods, fight! I am tired of fighters who take the sport for granted. Do your f#@%ing best in EVERY fight! It doesn't matter if you are fighting the best or the worst fighter of all times: come in prepared and willing to give it all and to leave your soul in that cage.
Show that you want it, that you deserve it. Mo did and that's why he won. Simple as that.
libofsharaku April 18, 2010
relax, it is obviously a fix, there will be a campaign of trash talk before eventually moussasi knocks him out in a rematch
ac5 April 18, 2010
Why the hell do I get a big impression that the broadcasters are biased towards Mousasi during the first 3 rounds? he was getting beat and he seemed just as gassed as Lawall.
millcat April 18, 2010
Mo won an awesome wrestling match..they way he layed on gegard and took more shots on the ground from the top position than he delivered was textbook wreslting and holding on to win the fight..kudos…1 point for wrestling..0 points for mma. but gegard needs some jits work and should attemtop a sprawl..imo..he should of did what mo did to him and just hang on and act like you dont know what to do other than ounch forma guard..and then get stood up..hopefully they rematch them in the dream grand prix.
whitesword88 April 18, 2010
Mo is a bum and that fight was awfull it sucked. they are both lame ass fighters.
sooooopernate April 18, 2010
@ Darren: Do you know how to score a fight?
Darren April 19, 2010
soooooopernate, I a big mma fan, did you see the punch stats, did you see the fight? Mo looked like he had been beaten with a base ball batt.
TheJudge April 19, 2010
Only in the first round so far but the announcers are hugging Gegard's nuts a bit too hard.
Derick April 20, 2010
5 rounds fight just so boring! I not put my money on it!

No-win situation in abuse case
I wish to extend my sympathy to Tim Boles [VIVA! Performing Arts School director of drama]. He was caught in a no-win situation, like Joe Paterno.
He learned that one person had abused a young man. This is a quandary that no one ought to face.
Morally, if the accusation is true and he does nothing, he is seen as aiding the perpetrator.
On the other hand, if the accusation is untrue and he takes the proper action, he will have destroyed an innocent man's reputation.
Paterno had numerous reports of Sandusky's criminal interaction with boys. His condemnation is earned and is appropriate. He was doing it for his and Penn State's reputation. It went on for years.
Boles learns of one hearsay account. He does not know what to do.
All men are not heroes. All men do not know instantly what to do. Boles hesitated.
I do not know what I would do if faced with the same circumstance. I'd like to think I would immediately report the report. I cannot guarantee that I would.

The signing-day surprise in the Denver area was supposed to belong to Mullen linebacker Leilon Willingham. Instead, Denver East safety Ezekiel Bishop stole the show.
Bishop, an Arizona commitment since last summer, switched his college choice to Arizona State, signing with the Sun Devils on Wednesday.
"I'm glad it's over," Bishop said after a signing-day ceremony at East. "I'm more relaxed about my decision. My mind is at ease now."
Bishop had committed to Arizona in July, citing his close relationship with then-Wildcats defensive backs coach Greg Brown. But new Colorado coach Jon Embree got Brown to become the Buffs' defensive coordinator, which re-opened Bishop's recruitment.
"That was a huge factor in my decision," Bishop said. "I mean, the reason why I committed early was because of him."
Ultimately, Bishop said, he felt more comfortable at ASU.
"We fit each other pretty well," Bishop said.
He added that he hopes to play early at ASU by putting in whatever work he needs to do this summer.
"I'm training toward that," Bishop said. "I'm not going to give them no options to redshirt me."
Bishop was the latest in a long line of recruits to decommit from Arizona as signing day approached. Asked about it, Arizona coach Mike Stoops fumed.
"Commitments are meaningless in a lot of ways," he said at a news conference announcing his new recruits. "Holding kids for six, eight months, I'm tired of it. We have to re-evaluate that."
Willingham, meanwhile, was scheduled to pick from five finalists at a ceremony at his school Wednesday, but the cold weather forced Mullen to close school. The signing ceremony was rescheduled for 7 a.m. today. Willingham has narrowed his choices to Central Florida, CU, Arizona State, Michigan and Washington.
Scout.com reported Wednesday that Willingham had signed a letter of intent with UCF, but the school did not put his name on its list of recruits who signed a letter of intent. Willingham didn't respond to requests for comment.
Willingham's teammate Rayshon Williams, a wide receiver, committed to Central Florida last weekend but didn't sign his letter of intent Wednesday.
Colorado signed two in-state recruits, Mullen linebacker Brady Daigh and Arvada West offensive lineman Marc Mustoe.
That's down from the Gary Barnett era, when Colorado averaged just over six in-state players per class.
CU had an commitment from Valor Christian quarterback Brock Berglund, but he switched to Kansas after Embree was hired and is already enrolled in Lawrence.
Colorado State picked up five in-state athletes: Dorian Brown (RB, Thompson Valley), Sam Carlson (OL, Poudre), Justin Hansen (OL/DL, Longmont), Joe Kawulok (TE/DL, Monarch) and George Talanoa (FB, Valor Christian). Brown is already enrolled.
Air Force, meanwhile, got a commitment from Rangeview quarterback Jaleel Awini. Awini said he felt the option offense run by the Falcons suited his skills well.
"That offense is a little better for my running abilities," said Awini, who threw for 23 touchdowns and ran for 17. "They're starting to throw it a little more, so I'll get to showcase my throwing skills (too)."
Air Force recruits do not sign national letters of intent.
Wheat Ridge quarterback Nick Ossello has decided to play only lacrosse in college, according to his father, Steve. Ossello is being recruited by Maryland and Notre Dame for lacrosse.

Booked Up: Dan Brown's 'The Lost Symbol'
As you may know, there is a very popular writer named Dan Brown, who is the author of a not-yet-long series of thrillers starring a Harvard professor. Of Brown's The Da Vinci Code, blogger-despising John Cheever daughter-in-law Janet Maslin wrote in the New York Times that this was a "gleefully erudite" and "exhilaratingly brainy thriller." Of Brown's latest, she wrote: "he's bringing sexy back to a genre that had been left for dead." Ha ha, Janet Maslin! This newest book, The Lost Symbol, has already sold two million copies in the U.S., and, as of Tuesday, a week after release, half a million copies in the U.K., as well as 100,000 e-books through Amazon, which is the form in which I purchased it, so that I could read for myself this book that is, it turns out, actively hostile and underming to all of the tenets of Republican, conservative and Christian America.
Brown's Harvard professor hero Robert Langdon, now entering his late-mid-40s, and who looks just like Tom Hanks in my mind for no apparent reason, even though I believe in an earlier book Langdon is described as being somewhat Harrison Ford-like, is mildly famous for his culture pop history books on symbols. As The Lost Symbol begins, he is invited to Washington, D.C., by a friend, the head of the Smithsonian, to reprise a lecture he has previously given on Bookspan TV. "Bookspan TV" is the casual name for the highly-underwatched Book TV weekend programming of C-SPAN 2.
This is maybe the first book I have ever read that mentions C-SPAN.
Needless to say, Langdon of course hops on his friend's private jet to give the lecture, which does not exist, the lecture, I mean, not the plane, which totally exists: the lecture, it is a fakeout by a devious character, and mysteries and drama ensue! Things must be figured out! But humankind, for the most part, has become too intellectually lazy to do any figuring. "'Google' is not a synonym for 'research'," Langdon nearly yells at someone at one point. And later, a character makes fun of someone's "Wiki-wisdom," in the course of making fun of people who think the world will end in 2012.
In the course of his adventures, Langdon must contact his book publisher, who is unpleasantly desperate for a manuscript. "Book publishing would be so much easier without the authors," thinks this editor.
What is this literate, witty, informed piece of delightful American cultural criticism I am reading?
Okay it has some writer-ticks that are irritating as all get-out. As a scifi reader, I am extremely forgiving of such, though they are pushing it, and I will leave it to everyone else to harp about the constant italics and the annoying shape and the insanely short chapters and the cliffhangerism and also the parts where women are putting their hands in to boiling pots of water to pick things up.
But professional readers have also been dismissive that the book includes, as par for the course, a lady love interest who becomes entangled in the mysteries. "Once again, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to the scene of a gruesome attack, joins forces with an attractive and erudite love interest, and speeds around a world capital chasing clues, solving puzzles, and risking his life while dropping cocktail parties' worth of scholarly minutiae" is how Entertainment Weekly describes the book. What those critics seemed to have breezed past is that said love interest is fifty years old. (Or, as Brown would put it: She is fifty years old.) Let us go and name the lady love interests of pop culture books who are fifty. (Or heroines even. Even Stella was only "forty-fucking-two.")
And? Throughout the book, various characters-and not the villains-trash contemporary American Christians:
"I'm sorry, but I don't know any Christians who consider themselves God's equal."
"Of course not," Bellamy said, his tone hardening. "Because most Christians want it both ways. They want to be able to proudly declare they are believers in the BIble and yet simply ignore those parts they find too difficult or too inconvenient to believe."
Those are the good guys talking. And (with ellipses in the original):
"Robert, you and I both know that the ancients would be horrified if they saw how their teachings had been perverted… how religion has established itself as a tollbooth to heaven… how warriors march into battle believing God favors their cause."
And, in a particularly brutal, non-dialogue passage:
From the Crusades, to the Inquisition, to American politics-the name Jesus had been hijacked in all kinds of power struggles. Since the beginning of time, the ignorant had always screamed the loudest, herding the unsuspecting masses and forcing them to do their bidding. They defended their worldly desires by citing Scripture they did not understand. They celebrated their intolerance as proof of their own convictions. Now, after all these years, mankind had finally managed to utterly erode everything that had once been so beautiful about Jesus.
Also around the edges of the book are a greedy, selfish heir who pals around with the "celebrati" and a friendly Arab named Omar, and a tribute to the New York Public Library. Also Leibniz and Daniel Boulud are both name-checked. Oh and there is a section that details CIA interrogation techniques and how they are a terrible torture. And over and over again, it creates an equivalency between the Koran, the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita. How-wait, not how, why-is America's fastest-selling adult-fiction book writer so blasphemous in a country where everyone must kowtow to Christian mania?

Loud Biowheel?
Hello all,
I've got a 10g tank in my dorm room with a Marineland filter in it. When the biowheel is spinning, it makes quite a bit of splashing. This is fine during the day, I don't mind the ambient noise... but it keeps me up when I'm trying to sleep.
Would it defeat the purpose of the biowheel to only have it running during the day? I can keep the rest of the filter running and sleep fine... but that biowheel is just too noisy.
try re-positioning the spray bar and make sure your tank is filled as high as possible. I have the same thing in my kids' nap room and it went from loud splashing to subtle white noise by doing those things.
As Stephanie points out bringing up the water level helps alot. If the noise still bothers you I suppose you could pop out the biowheel before you go to bed at night and let it float on top of the water. As long as the biowheel stays wet the beneficial bacteria will be fine.
Lol, I forgot to mention that I've already fooled with the water level and such as much as I can. I've filled it to practically overflowing and it doesn't seem to help much.
I think I will end up just taking it out and floating it in the water at night. That's what I did last night and it worked... I just wanted to make sure that the beneficial bacteria really would be okay with that. Thanks!

« Congratulations to Sam Wessels 10 year old CNN iReport Award Winner for Autism | Main | Chicago Bound For Autism One »
You can follow this conversation by subscribing to the comment feed for this post.
I am like totally confused here. Help me out. I guess the Columbia Journal Review is gonna blame themselves next time a child dies from a vaccine reaction, because they aren't letting us talk about it and try to prevent it ? Cool, I like that idea.
I know that autism parents don't generally mix causes related to vaccine safety and medical treatments for vaccine injuried, autistic spectrum, etc. with politics; but I can't resist reminding everyone that it was the New York Times that pushed us into the Iraq War with their hysterical claims that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. And they didn't apologize for two years, until we were already committed to the War.
They also were the ones that published that bogus study that organic produce was no different than the pesticide laced variety--so go enjoy a bowel of pesticide coated blue berries and eat up on those heavily doused apples. At the time of that article I thought there might be something to it for the "general population" because it was the New York Times. Still, I knew that not all kids or adults can handle pesticides and I thought it was irresponsible that they didn't make that clear in the article. It turned out that the study was flawed. I'm not sure the New York Times ever apologized for that boo boo. Probably lots of people are laughing at those silly people who eat organic because the New York Times says there is no difference between organic and non-organice. I hope the editors of the Times are among them, but probably not.
So am I not surprised that the New York Times is promoting vaccines and trashing those who advise parents to exercise caution. Again, just because "some" people can handle vaccines does not mean ALL people can, especially if there are autoimmune diseases in the family or the child has a fragile immune system. But I'm sure that wasn't mentioned in the article. It gives me one more reason to doubt anything written in the New York Times.
That means these types of articles are really, really counterproductive. It would have been much better if the Columbia Journalism Review, The New York Times and all the other anti-Wakefield (MMR), anti-Thimerosal etc. articles had instead promoted scientific honesty and helped us parents with our quest to make vaccines as safe as possible. The way I see it now, any further article of that type is going to move parents into the anti-vaccination camp.
As to the subject of Whooping Cough, there was an article in MedPage Today "Newer Whooping Cough Vaccines Fall Flat" by Michael Smith
that indicates that the a-cellular vaccine (DTaP) is not nearly as effective as the previous versions (DTwP).
This writer seems to have her panties in quite a twist. (Oddly, the piece is decorated with a big, very attractive photo of Jenny McCarthy.) Just why is it that can't we send our kids to school with peanut butter sandwiches all of a sudden? The inventor of the cervical cancer vaccine wants to ban unvaccinated children from daycare? No kidding!:
"The call for unvaccinated children to be excluded from childcare centres and public schools is gaining momentum and has the conditional support of Dr Steve Hambleton, federal president of the Australian Medical Association who is concerned about vaccination rates in pockets of inner-city Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
'We should certainly make it difficult for (unvaccinated) children to get to school,' he said.
It seems absurd that we can't send children to school or childcare with a peanut butter sandwich, but we can send an unvaccinated child who is a real and present danger to others. Our pets are afforded greater protection; you can't leave a cat or dog at a kennel without providing up-to-date vaccination records, but irresponsible parents who fail to immunise their children have no issues gaining a place in childcare centres or public schools.
The inventor of the cervical cancer vaccine, Professor Ian Frazer, has called for childcare centres to have the right to ban unvaccinated children."
I was hoping to win that big powerball lottery last Saturday, so I could fund the research of vaccinated vs unvaccinated. Sorry, but I didn't win it. So now we must wait for some other source of funding to get the truth. I find it very interesting that Purdue University's veterinary research department has already done such a study of health outcomes on dogs that have been vaccinated vs unvaccinated. The vaccinated dogs health was much worse than the unvaccinated. So, they have already got the answer in the dog world. Here's the study link: http://www.dogsnaturallymagazine.com/purdue-vaccination-studies/
Regardless of the issue, ideology, or politics, when one side claims certain topics are off limits for discussion or whines about "false balance" in reporting, it's a sure bet two things are happening:
1) They have no interest in an honest discussion of the facts but seek to impose their will on others
2) They think they are losing the argument
Most people intuitively understand this and become suspicious when when told they are not allowed to think for themselves. These tactics show desperation as those confident in their position don't need to scream that everyone else must be silenced.
Thank you for being so vocal. I do believe that many parents don't want to accept the vaccine injury truth because the truth would be that we have to do more than just send our children for behaviour therapy. The flip side for others is they have to aid in seeking change. This job I always wanted to leave to the "activists" but now I know it must come from the many. Is there any losing now anyways!?!
Bob Moffitt, thank you for reminding us more than once recently to follow the advice, "See something? Say something." I have been trying to say something for over 40 years for which the response has remained a stony silence.
The vaccine schedule should have been changed as soon as any doubts were expressed. Hep B at birth in particular should have been stopped, just as the synthetic vitamin K injection had to be stopped.
What is the "predisposition" to vaccine injury? I will continue to try to point out that clamping the umbilical cord immediately after birth (even before the first breath) risks causing a lapse in oxygen delivery, and the resulting selective damage of brainstem auditory centers has been known for more than 50 years now.
This is bad enough, but adding any unnatural substance into the circulation following injury by asphyxia is a recipe for disaster. See conradsimon.org for references and more discussion.
Search the internet for images of Curtis Brainard and you'll find a rashy-necked Bill Gates clone barely out of his teens, whose self-absorbed mien matches the self-importance oozing from his shallow, cronyistic prose.
Just wait until Junior changes his first diaper. Everything changes then -- and far more so when your bright-eyed, verbal child loses eye contact, stops speaking, and his/her gastrointestinal system goes haywire shortly after vaccination.
@ John Stone: "unfortunately I was, on the mistaken ground that I didn't believe even a government I didn't like would be quite that blatantly deceitful over the basic information"
Who wants to learn that they live in times where suspicions that seem too cynical and rather threatening in implication are the right guiding impulses?
That's essentially why I accepted HepB for my first child at three days of age and continued on from there for far too long. As with going into Iraq (again), it didn't feel like a certain moral course of action, but I thought at least that they would in no way continue a vaccine if there were any problems.
I assumed someone was looking, obviously, and at the very least above harming tiny newborn infants. I guess I see now a system where most have too much incentive to not look, too much leaving off of responsibility to someone else, sometimes leaving it in the hands of those who aren't "assigned" the needed authority for decisions made, and likely there are some not above what I thought, who weigh in on who is "assigned" authority, and of course feel no responsibility.
It's as painful as seeing how our nation is being used in perpetuating worldwide war.
This bent for suppression will ultimately fail. One cannot eliminate with a 'delete' key the significant risks of the current vaccines and vaccine schedule. Collaborating with public health officials' denials does nothing to change the the broken vaccine approval, recommendation and safety protocols. Ignoring those harms and risks (from vaccine contamination and injury to antigenic drift/vaccine efficacy issues to inadvertently pushing viral illnesses to later, more dangerous ages) may cause as much damage as would exposing those harms and risks so they might be thoughtfully resolved. The media, in arguing for suppression of facts, presupposes that human scientific ingenuity cannot possibly rise to the challenge of producing safer vaccines or devising a schedule that would lead to better health outcomes. They must be made to realize that reporting the truth will in the long run avert more harm than burying their heads in the sand. The Fourth Estate has place of pride atop the Bill of Rights because they are meant to protect us from these types of abuses of power; they're not supposed to be the lookouts protecting the criminal class from scrutiny.
I suppose it doesn't really matter how silly, illogical, self-contradictory it gets providing it helps to perpetuate the aura of spurious shame.
It is an interesting area: of course once you have a state of war you inevitably have control of information - this is why these people have to have a constant state of war and why there was a constant state of war in Orwell's '1984'. Of course, at least in the UK we had an intellectually much more open debate prior to the Iraq War than we are seeing in this territory now, and although it was undoubtedly stolen by lies about half the population weren't taken in (unfortunately I was, on the mistaken ground that I didn't believe even a government I didn't like would be quite that blatantly deceitful over the basic information).
I actually saw a dog in a teacup the other day on facebook. I would have forwarded it to Dan if I were more savvy on the computer and knew how. Sorry. I hope this dog in a teacup post doesn't kill more babies but it probably will.
Regarding reporting on Iraq, I'm seeing too many parallels with "disease prevention" and war-making (can't feel too surprised or brilliant--they do constantly talk about the "war on disease"). False-flagging seems to be more the norm than the exception in war once all things come out in history, so I've been lately wondering what would CDC et al do without non-compliant members of society to blame outbreaks and problems on. Create them themselves I guess? Like seemingly happened with that poor guy that was left to believe he could take an airplane trip, then suddenly became a MAJOR transmission risk...
It hit me in the middle of the night how far Brainard's conclusion twists things, as he expresses concern that balanced coverage of a "bogus" vaccine problem will lead to others in the media avoid covering "real" vaccine safety issues, effectively saying your coverage of safety problems, not the character assassination and much more he and others engage in, will be blamed for future media negligence? Or something like that. I'm having a really hard time here putting this suggestion into a concise wording... "Look, the next time vaccine makers get away with hurting someone, it's will be your fault because you tried to prevent it this time...?" Is that what he's actually saying? Or, "As the public figures out we're not really covering vaccine problems, we're blaming you, vaccine-autism reporters...?" (That one might actually make some sense, but I don't think public will view it in the way he implies.)
I always enjoy your weekly wrap-up.
Denying vaccine injury bestows multiple rewards:
(1) falsely simplifies the issue by polarizing it as yes/no, wrong/right;
(2) reduces workload -- one needn't investigate, write, treat, prevent;
(3) self-anoints one as intellectually superior and possessed of the moral high ground;
(4) reinforces "science" as the new religion -- facts can be, and are, changed far more easily than belief;
etc. ad nauseam.
"Weaseling out" sums it up colloquially.
If Paul Raeburn felt Susan Dominus was wrong to bring up the subject, then wasn't Paul Raeburn just as wrong for bringing up the subject? I guess he's not the sharpest tack in the box.
And the truth is that the lowest infant mortality is in western EU countries, where a minority of parents vaccinates, and if they do, they choose only w few vaccines. This truth is prohibited in the US and UK. It must be smashed at all costs by pharma-medical establishment, responsible for biological destruction of Americans and other nations.
CJR the real meaning of hypocrite ..follow the money that will lead the CJR to the baby killers..
Dear Mr. Olmsted-
Hate to burst your bubble, but you are not the only "media type" to get ink this week vis a vis "the vaccines cause brain damage" story. There is a difference- you are apparently a journalist, who in the past has posted contra viewpoints to your own. The other media type is "Dr."Nancy "Just Get your Damn Flu Shot" Synderman.
"As concern surged this January over a worse than usual influenza season, members of the media seemed unsure whether the CDC's announcement that "vaccine effectiveness (VE) was 62%"7 represented good versus disappointing news.8
NBC anchor Brian Williams: "I worry about this number. I woke up to reports of this number. It can disincentivize people to go get that flu shot which all of you are saying is still so important."
Chief medical editor Nancy Snyderman: "And I had the same concern when you see 62%, because I'm afraid people will say 'well, it's half and half.' But remember, if you have a 62% less chance of getting of getting the flu, it means less chance of being on antibiotics, less chance of ending up in an intensive care unit, and as we've seen from this uptick in numbers, 62% less chance of dying."9
This article calls out the CDC as liars. It exposes Synderman as uninformed at best, a paid propagandist more likely. It discusses the 1/110 febrile seizure rate in kids who got flu shot. It exposes the lack of evidence and the systemic corruption underlying all CDC supported vaccine policy, not just the flu shot.
CJR is on the wrong side of history. With the knowledge that MMR was reported to cause meningitis and ASD as early as 1988, Dr. Wakefield is proven to have been too early for his own good in reporting his team's findings. Additional support for Wakefield comes from Journal Pediatrics November 2012 Supplement ASD and Gut Disease, and Wake Forest University last month publishing that ASD is associated with a unique form of IBD.
CJR got the story exactly backwards. Snyderman, Brian "Those Children Don't Have Bowel Disease" Deer, Seth Mnookin- these are the flacks for a collusion between government policy and corporate interests. They enable the injury of children by not using their media megaphones to decry the contract of medical fascism that we are finally starting to see more clearly.
Note to CJR: the story won't get out of the news because every family in the United States knows someone who has been brain damaged by the vaccine schedule. The truth is finally starting to out, the BMJ article posted in this comment clearly describes the CDC as nothing more than incompetent, bought off corporate hacks who are demonstrably lying to the American public about the safety and efficacy of vaccines,
Great article! At last some one turns that` babies will suffer and die thing around the other way!
"It reminds me of the time after 9/11. If you criticized the invasion of Iraq, the terrorist win. If you didn't go shopping, the terrorists win."
Nowadays .. following the terrorist bombing at the Boston marathon .. we are told it is our duty if "we see something, we say something".
Apparently, the Columbia Journal Review would prefer to attack AoA for following that very same .. sound advice .. regarding vaccines and the policies by which those vaccines are recommended, approved and administered.
Instead, the CJR demands AoA .. KEEP THEIR MOUTHS SHUT .. and let the carnage continue unabated .. because .. THEY SAY SO.

Google's had some wins and I also know some enterprises that move to gmail and after the employees started complaining wnet back to Outlook but the OFiice 365 version instead of hosting their own Excahnge servers. Office 365 is way better than gmail if you're really into enterprise email functionality.
Funny this story is almost a carbon copy of Eric's press statement?
The WSJ has just repeated his PR message and seems to think that is news, in fact that is really giving free advertising
A business that trusts their data to Google is not a business worth investing in.
I find it ironic that everything that AAPL or GOOG does is like a message from God but MSFT might as well be Satan's software vendor. The author praises GOOG and even foresees GOOG growth just for attempting to take on MSFT in the office doc space but does so without even acknowledging the amazing success of MSFT's accomplishments in that same space. I wonder if the Wall Street actually judged AAPL and GOOG using the same standards (diversity of products, percentage of consumer home devices, percentage of enterprise market share, bottom-to-top stack of products, growth opportunities, etc.) they apply to MSFT would those company's have such high values? I wonder if MSFT was not run by Wall Street's favorite [dripping with sarcasm here] son Ballmer would the pundits judge MSFT's so harshly? The IT talking heads are going on and on about the death of the PC and the loss of MSFT% in that space. I think that this is just noise, the PC has just changed format as I type this reply on my fantastic MSFT Surface RT. The people who don't do any real work on a PC will no longer need that big box or laptop if they can do what they want on a tablet and\or their smartphone. Those of us that need processing horse-power will still need a "box" to do our work and nobody makes a better OS for doing work than MSFT. With Windows 8, MSFT now also has that device stack covered from top-to-bottom and with a unified user experience. While reading unbalance and biased reviews like this one ask yourself why that doesn't get any praise?
I dream of a day that Microsoft no longer exists. Hate Microsoft with a passion.
so google manages to sell two contracts for a total of 170,000 users and they are muscling in on MS? MS has so many office customers many of which are so huge they dwarf those two "big" contracts for Google. Also with office 365 and MS making a push for that, Google really offers zero to businesses. And the guy that says it was cheaper going google vs buying office must not pay attention to his bottom line, yes MS can be expensive if exchange servers etc, but that cost is usually spread over 10 years on average. take the figures of 10 bucks a user or 120 a year, and quickly make that $200 user license for office look cheap, unless you rush upgrade, to newer versions, which if that is the kind of IT office you are running Google Apps is so far behind, you wouldn't go with it anyways.
Sorry but really Google is gaining some small ground just like open office did a long time ago, it will fill a ninche market, and that is about as far as it will go. Without being able to tie into other core security components and lacking a centralized security component, Google apps don't fit well with corporations. Especially when for the same cost you have office 365 blowing you kisses, and winking at you.
It's probably clear to everyone reading this article that Google will develop their own OS to compete with Windows. I know they already have android, but I see great things for their Chrome OS. Everyone seems to talk about Apple for some reason ( I like Apple) but Google will most likely try to stomp out Microsoft and what's left of Blackberry. Once they eat away at Apples market share (because one device can't compete against 200) they will go after Microsoft more aggressively on towers, laptops, and enterprise. They will eventually charge for their products (not that that's evil) but only after they start to chicle out some more competition.
@ToughSell What goes around comes around, for years MS had a monopoly as supported by the US and European courts. The legal issue of course was "what did they do with that monopoly" (1) stomped on the competition (2) overcharged the customers. The civil case about Word Perfect is still going on. MS forgot that people have long memories, and when they have an alternative they will take it, sometimes just to send the message "screw you".
Usually an entrenched monopoly is broken by a new technology/model, that does not take them head on, but sort of sneaks around and behind them, so they don't see it coming. Microsoft didn't see Cloud or Mobile coming and eventually this will leave them on the sidelines. And I, as one whom they ripped off won't cry.
Microsoft is getting ready to announce OFFICE for iOS and Android, so these companies using Google Apps might be temporary. But Google makes no money from the use of Google Apps, since they are FREEEEEE!!!
Google apps run on Android and iOS devices as well as any browser, but Google makes no money from it do they? If so, how?
Apple's net worth is actually about the same as the entire PC industry and coming close to the entire Android industry. Be careful, but Apple's architecture is carefully structure which is the benefits of a closed architecture, because Apple can open it up to whatever level they want to or need to. The open architecture produces too many competitively priced, low margin, no profit business models. That's why IBM sold off their PC division and Compaq sold off to HP, there's no freaking money in Windows PCs, and the same thing is happening to the Android market, hence why Cisco dropped their Android tablet and Dell is getting out of the smartphone business. Chrome OS is just for people with no money and no need for anything other than a rock bottom basic laptop that doesn't really do much. But there is pretty much NO MONEY in the Chromebook since it sells for $250 or less, the hardware alone costs almost as much to produce the product, so where is there any profits?
And my company which employess about 160,000 around the world is switching to MSFT Office from Lotus Notes and to other Microsoft real time products as well - so we just made up for those 2 tiny customers moving.
Healthcare security vulnerable because doctors and nurses not careful, take shortcuts? Don't be silly - they always wash their hands between patients, don't they?
The reason that Google and Apple are celebrated while Microsoft is viewed as an evil emperor is customer satisfaction. For the average user of the past, there were solutions from these and other companies that will meet your needs. As users become more tech-savvy, they are needing solutions that accommodate that, and Microsoft's just-good-enough-to-not-get-fired approach of over a decade is eating alive. Microsoft has a comparatively non-existent app store, a (deserved) terrible reputation among Internet leaders for the continuing lackluster and outright anti-competitive bastardization of web standards via IE, and an embarrassing every-other-year-is-actually-usable approach to their flagship OS. If your company is trying to gain any competitive advantage through your human resources (better skills among staff, higher morale, etc), then you are aiming to attract people with enough ability with their tools that they can't help but notice these differences. If you're trying to build word-of-mouth, the vast majority of influencers are now people with enough ability with their tools to notice these differences. The hold-outs are the people who learned how the tech industry worked 20 years ago and haven't honestly moved forward: the ones getting their news from evening news programs on television and industry rags with unlabeled sponsored stories.
The main obstacle that these hold-outs face is that they learned the industry when it was a much more risky field. Systems were less stable, and undo features weren't omnipresent, and there was no Internet. They haven't adapted to the new decision-making model where systems are so stable that 20 minutes of downtime can be an international headline and where everything can be undone. Microsoft's corporate solutions are their last refuge in yesterday's world as all consumers shift to the future.
If I had to boil it down to one key point, I would say that IE killed Microsoft. IE wasn't different from any other Microsoft product in terms of mediocre quality or lack of intelligently consumer-friendly objectives, but it left an immeasurable negative impression on the entire world of web development. Call it terrible decision-making or just bad luck, but those people were destined to become the influencers and leaders. Now that they have, Microsoft is reaping what they sowed.
One of the biggest features that drove the adoption of Microsoft email services was the tight integration with the rest of the collaboration suite of tools (Calendar, SharePoint, Office, etc...) does this mean that this now a less important cirteria or that Google has upped it's game in that area?

Local fans appreciate their dose of high-octane racing
By: Bill Poindexter
NASCAR hasn't exactly crashed into the wall, and it isn't running on fumes. But the NASCAR machine is a little loose in the turns, if you will, as attendance at the major tracks around the country has declined and TV ratings with it. Meanwhile, the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series, small-town racing run with big-time passion at tracks like All American Speedway in Roseville, isn't exactly running out front in clean air, but it isn't a back-marker that's being lapped either. To borrow even more motorhead speak, it's in the pack, drafting, jockeying for position, giving and receiving help, giving the guy in front a tap and being nudged on either side. The racers know a good thing when they see it … and so do the fans. Another steady crowd of about 1,500 packed into the local racing facility Saturday night to watch two teenagers tap bumpers and scrape doors, all in the name of competition and entertainment. Matt Scott lives in Pine Grove, near Sonora, but he's a regular at All American, the Late Model points leader, and the local fans love him. He's 18 years old. Jacob Gomes is 17 and lives in Manteca. With Stockton 99 Speedway idle Saturday night, Gomes and team came to Roseville not for points but to win. There were 18 cars at the green flag for the first of two 44-lap Late Model main events, but most eyes were on the kids running up front. Their nose-to-tail, then side-by-side duel had fans on the edge of their seats, pushed back, twisting, turning, squirming and contorting with every turn on the track that measures one-third of a mile around. The finish was the stuff made in movies. Scott, the crowd favorite who has six feature victories this year, ran up underneath Gomes' back bumper a handful of times before getting inside Gomes' car and going side by side for about the last 10 laps. Scott came close to passing while going into the turns and even inched ahead, but Gomes pulled away coming out of the turns and in the straights. They scraped doors coming out of the final turn and into the straightaway with Gomes winning by maybe a bumper. The crowd rose and gave the kids a standing ovation. Scott, after adjustments were made to his car between the main events, went on to win the second feature comfortably with Gomes finishing second. "We've accumulated a lot of wins, and the fan base is starting to grow, and it's really awesome," Scott said, noting that Gomes edged him for the NASCAR National Rookie of the Year award last year. "We were both leaning on each other real hard. It's not exactly a rivalry, but we race each other really hard whenever we get around each other, and I mean hard but clean, and it's a lot of fun." Tell us about it. Bill Poindexter can be reached at email@example.com.

The Guide Dog Foundation for the Blind is proud to announce the first licensing partership of our subsidiary organization, America's VetDogs.
Today's economic climate mandates that not-for-profit organizations diversify their strategies to raise funds to support their missions.
While traditional methods of fundraising are still important – special events, direct mail campaigns, planned giving, etc. – forward-thinking organizations embrace the many different opportunities that allow them to reach their donors and other constituents, such as social media, cause marketing, and licensing.
In 2010, America's VetDogs signed its first licensing agreement with Bil-Jac, a nationally known manufacturer of premium dog food and dog treats, to develop the America's VetDogs brand of dog treats.
Bil-Jac was founded by brothers Bill and Jack Kelly. After serving in World War II, the two returned to their hometown to build a pet food company to fill what they saw as a gap in the pet food market.
Bob Kelly, president of Bil-Jac and son of founder Bill Kelly, says, "We're a company founded on providing the healthiest diet for a dog as a means of enhancing the bond between dogs and their human companions. VetDogs provided the opportunity to take this one step further by focusing on our American veterans who need the assistance of a service dog."
He adds, "VetDogs is an organization that provides a vital and unique service to our returning heroes. We can't think of any cause more in line with our family's values."
For America's VetDogs, working with Bil-Jac was a natural. Wells Jones, CEO of America's VetDogs, says, "We believe Bil-Jac's approach to enhancing pet health with high-quality foods mirrors our commitment to the wonderful dogs that help us serve veterans."
America's VetDogs Dog Treats are processed using Bil-Jac's proprietary nutrient protection technology. Jim Kelly, another of Bill's sons, says, "We start with more real fresh chicken, which makes these treats more palatable and very healthy. They contain no fillers or gluten meals, and have naturally sourced linoleic acid to help support a healthy skin and coat."
Adds Jeff Bressler, executive vice president for VetDogs, "We know that America's VetDog Dog Treats will allow consumers to feel good about buying a great quality product while knowing that a portion of sales revenue will allow us to further the VetDogs mission."
Initially, America's VetDogs Dog Treats will be available at Petco, a leading supplier of premium pet goods, with national distribution in over 1,000 stores in all 50 states beginning in September 2010.
"Your purchase," Kelly says, "supports our American heroes."

In its history, no lake in Minnesota has offered better walleye fishing on opening day than the Upper Red has since it was reopened to walleye fishing in 2006. Yes, sometimes the northwest wind blows on this monster lake and whitecaps roll, keeping boats tied up in safe harbors. But on most days it's just jig-and-a-minnow — and fish on. Midsummer action can be less predictable, as fish spread out in this shallow dish of a lake. But from mid-May through mid-June and even beyond, limits abound. upperredlakeassn.com

Alleged burglary ringleader facing new charge
By: Bridget Jones, Journal Staff Writer
Stolen property could amount to $200,000, detective says
An Auburn man arrested for the burglary of several North Auburn homes and cars parked at Auburn State Recreation Area trailheads is facing a new charge. Detective Jim Hudson, of the Placer County Sheriff's Office, said Tuesday the stolen property the Sheriff's Office is still searching for in the case concerning Joseph William Einspahr, 30, of Auburn, could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $200,000. So far, items worth several thousand dollars have been recovered and returned to 12 owners. Hudson said the alleged burglars may have been involved in others cases the Sheriff's Office is not yet aware of. The Placer County Sheriff's Office most recently arrested Einspahr on Monday. Einspahr was also arrested last week and the week before for burglary charges. Einspahr was arrested in November with local residents Stephanie Jean Cooke-Perez, 27, Jayme Lynn Salcedo, 33, and Karissa Dawn Yeager, 27. Amanda Marie Jojo, 21, is still at large and wanted by the Sheriff's Office. All the suspects are from the Auburn and Colfax area, according to Hudson. Hudson said the arrest of Jojo might lead to a stash of stolen property. Einspahr is thought to be the male leader of the female burglary ring, according to the Sheriff's Office. The five are charged with multiple home and vehicle burglaries, possessing stolen property and possessing drugs. Einspahr, Salcedo, Yeager and Jojo have charges dating back to the summer. Einspahr is expected to be arraigned at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday in Auburn's Placer County Jail courtroom on a Nov. 5 home burglary charge, according to David Broady, a deputy district attorney for the Placer County District Attorney's Office. "We were able to identify evidence that he committed an additional burglary we had not charged him with yet," Hudson said of Einspahr's most recent arrest. Hudson said the Sheriff's Office is hoping for a resolution to this case, because the longer the burglaries continue, the higher the chance residential victims may end up getting hurt in confrontations with the burglars. "The tension is higher on these types of crimes, because they are entering houses," Hudson said. Einspahr and Cooke-Perez are scheduled for an early status conference for some of the charges at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday in Auburn's Placer County Jail courtroom. Information about upcoming court dates for Salcedo, Yeager and Jojo was unavailable as of press time. Kevin Burdick, of Auburn, is Einspahr's attorney. Burdick's office declined to comment on the case Tuesday. Maxine Einspahr, Joseph Einspahr's mother, said Tuesday she is concerned her son won't get a fair trial in Auburn. Maxine Einspahr said she doesn't think her son is guilty of the crimes. "Joseph has never been in trouble, either as a child or as an adult," she said. "That kid is the nicest kid you would ever want to meet. If you ask anyone in this town, they will say, 'No way' about him (committing the crimes). He is not the ringleader of those girls." The Sheriff's Office said the stolen property that has been found so far was recovered from a vehicle Einspahr was driving. Maxine Einspahr said she thinks the vehicle must have belonged to one of the other suspects. "It wasn't Joseph's car," she said. "He hasn't had a car since he wrecked the car he and his wife had." Einspahr is in custody in Placer County Jail and is ineligible for bail. Cooke-Perez is also in custody and ineligible for bail. Anyone with information about Jojo's whereabouts or the burglaries is encouraged to call CrimeStoppers at (800) 923-8191. Reach Bridget Jones at email@example.com
