|Tracksters compete at Wray meet despite rainy weather

Even though wet spring weather has disrupted athletics this year, HHS tracksters still competed at the Wray track meet Thursday, April 16. Despite the rain, track and field events went on as scheduled.

Most of the statistics presented just now by my esteemed colleague is correct, but there is an old saying that there are lies, outrageous lies, and statistics.
I comment one the one remark that only handful of media institution are controlled by state. Yes, only handful. But this handful is three national state TV channels who are the only source of information for 90 percent of the Russian citizens and on which we'll never, never hear any criticism of Mr. Putin.
But I would like to devote the very limited time I have for very important question you, Mr. Chairman, asked Assistant Secretary Daniel Fried. Russians, or Russian officials, or Russian elite are indulging in anti-Western and anti-American perceptions and sentiments.
It's a very important question for the future of our relationship. The Russian security experts are firmly convinced that, in this very dangerous 21st century, the basic strategic geopolitical interest of Russia coincide, rather than contradict each other, whether you mean the challenges of Islamic radicalism or a rising China.
That's why I am more troubled, not by the fact whether our government, elected or appointed by Mr. Putin, but this growing anti-American and anti-Western sentiments in our foreign policy rhetoric and sometimes in our foreign policy action.
Until recently, all opinion polls demonstrated that these sentiments, as in many other countries, these anti-American sentiments are more characteristic for (inaudible) of political elite, those people who buy the very -- sending their children to study at American universities, their wives to give birth in American clinics, and have their accounts in American banks.
But approximately from late 2004, the massive indoctrination by these handful of media (inaudible) of ideas, of perceptions of Western America as a enemy (inaudible) these feelings are penetrated deeply into Russian public consciousness and unconsciousness.
Unfortunately, this campaign was unleashed by famous statements of Mr. Putin in address to the nation after this one. The enormous gap between Putin of 2001, who appeared on TV (inaudible) of the (inaudible) and said, "Americans, we are with you," and Putin on TV screens in September 2004 who said -- I quote (inaudible) literally, because it's very important -- that, "Islamic terrorists, they are just instruments. They are instruments in the hands of more dangerous, more powerful, more traditional enemies of Russia who still perceive nuclear Russia as a threat and try to weaken and dismantle it."
The worst thing of all, I suspect, that Putin sincerely believes in it, that it's not just rhetoric for internal political consumption. And this is a very serious problem for our relationship.
As all of the panelists, I'm strongly against canceling of G-8 meeting in Petersburg, especially because I think the potential of this institution is not used enough for raising very frank questions.
Both in Russian political elite and Mr. Putin personally, in spite all of the anti-American perceptions, appreciate very strongly Russian membership in this group.
And may I finish with one suggestion for President Bush as a member of this G-8 crop? Many (inaudible) have said that it's necessary to (inaudible) this meeting frank question, like it's customary among friends. The (inaudible) question (inaudible) do you really believe that I am sending terrorists to kill your children?
If it's misunderstanding, please explain to your people, and please, your spin doctors on TV, stop propagating this vision and this perception of America, the power behind the Islamic terrorists attacking Russia, and let's concentrate on these very important security challenges we both share.
But if not, if you really -- if you do believe and they think, in this case, what we are doing here and at other (inaudible)
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

ANNANDALE, Va. (WUSA) -- Sixty eight years after earning the honor, 88-year-old World War II veteran John "Jack" Faulconer Jr will be presented with the Bronze Star for Heroism.
Faulconer, who is from Washington and currently lives in Prince William County, Va., was severely wounded in a battle that killed two squad members a few weeks after D-Day in 1943, according to the office of Congressman Gerry Connolly. Faulconer was 18 years old and an infantryman in a machine gun squad in General Patton's 3rd Army.
According to Connolly's office:
"After surviving the battle of Metz, Jack and Patton's 3rd Army advanced closer to the German border at the Saar Valley. According to Jack while advancing up a hill the Germans were defending, his machine gun squad was advancing under heavy artillery and small arms fire. Two members of his squad were killed. Jack was hit in his left arm and knocked to the ground, after realizing he was alone, behind enemy lines, and his arm severely wounded he waited for nightfall. After nightfall set in Jack crawled out of his position and began walking, staying low to the ground hoping to find fellow Americans.
After some time he finally found fellow Americans and was able to get put on a stretcher and transferred to the battalion aid station. Jack was treated by doctors who hoped they could save his arm from amputation. After many surgeries the doctors were able to save his arm and Jack was transferred to Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington D.C."
Years later, Faulconer read that he was potentially eligible for a Bronze Star but didn't know how to determine if he was eligible for the medal so he reached out to Congressman Gerry Connolly. Congressman Connolly and his staff confirmed with the Department of the Army that Faulconer had been awarded the Bronze Star but never received it. He was also awarded the Purple Heart.
Faulconer, his wife Joyce and one son will attend the ceremony for the award at Congressman Connolly's Annandale office. He met Joyce while he was recovering from surgery on his arm at a dance at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. She is also a World War II veteran. They have been married for 65 years and have two children and seven grandchildren.

ATLANTA -- The rupture of an underground electric power cable is blamed by Georgia Power for explosions Monday night that rocked Broad Street near MLK in Downtown Atlanta, blowing five manhole covers high into the air.
There were no injuries but power to businesses along Broad Street was lost and crews worked into the night to restore it.
Despite no heat and no lights, one business kept its doors wide open. Manhole covers are open, repair trucks are everywhere, streets are blocked, but Miller's Pharmacy won't give up and won't shut its doors.
With 15,000 items stacked high on every wall, and customers coming in or ordering online from a huge variety of tonics, liniments and drugs, owner Richard Miller won't let exploding manhole covers and the loss of electricity shut him down.
"There is only one light bulb. There's no heat. But after 48 years, Millers is staying open and not going anywhere," Miller said. "We are going to stick with it even though our windows are a little rattled and broken, and its dark and we will be here if people want to come.
Georgia Power says a cable failure between two manholes resulted in a fire, causing underground pressure to blow the manhole covers high into the air.
Patrick Myers was standing just a few feet away.
"I saw smoke coming out of the ground, and then I smelled the gas and all of a sudden, boom!" Myers said.
When Miller got to the pharmacy Tuesday morning he said he wouldn't let anything get in the way of opening up.
"Serving my customers, light or no light, heat or no heat, they depend on me so I am here for them," Miller added.
Georgia Power hooked up a power cord to a small truck generator so Miller could use a computer and have one light.
But that wasn't going to work.
So the Help Desk teamed up with Home Depot to get Miller high powered flashlights and headlamps so he could make his way to the back of the store and to his storeroom to get everything he needed and fill all the orders.
Until the lights come back on, Miller's Pharmacy continues very much in business.

Political Analysis | The agendas behind the publication of an October surprise book
From Foley to Kuo: Washington buzz last week focused on a book by former Bush staffer David Kuo that hit the shelves on Oct. 16. His Tempting Faith: An Inside Story of Political Seduction reveals-according to the breathless Free Press publicity headline-"how Bush White House Manipulated the Christian Right."
In reality, the book and its relentless publicizing-60 Minutes, Good Morning America, and other network shows, hundreds of newspaper and magazine articles-show rampant manipulation on all sides: As Kuo put it in a WORLD interview-"everyone is using everyone and everyone has his own agenda." Because I've known Kuo for over a decade and was involved in hiring him 10 years ago to direct an organization designed to promote compassionate conservatism, he and I were able to examine some issues in our interview that have received short shrift elsewhere.
But first, some background on a smart, sophisticated, and sociable 38-year-old. With those attributes and a great backstory-his Chinese dad fought Mao Tse-Tung and escaped the Communist takeover on the last boat to leave Shanghai-Kuo was able to build a resumé with all-star bosses. His first job in Washington was with the National Right to Life Committee, but then he worked (usually briefly) for Bill Bennett, Jack Kemp, John Ashcroft, Bob Dole, Ralph Reed, and George W. Bush.
Kuo's work as a speechwriter and aide to many famous politicians made him a bright Forrest Gump or maybe a Leonard Zelig, the character in Woody Allen's 1983 mockumentary Zelig who looks and acts like whoever is around him. (Clever editing placed Zelig in real newsreel footage of Woodrow Wilson, Babe Ruth, and others.) Kuo, like many 20- and then 30-somethings who write in the voice of others, had a hard time finding his own: Tempting Faith is his attempt to be his own man, a Christian.
Kuo's passionate need to confess-in our interview he described himself as "a poor, poor, poor pilgrim. I stink at following Jesus"-was also prompted by an operation three years ago that removed from his brain an egg-sized, malignant tumor. Doctors say the cancer may return. Five years ago I witnessed Kuo behaving like a Zelig, but cancer has a way of focusing attention.
Kuo's stated agenda, then, is to put Christ before politics, and perhaps to leave a legacy for his three daughters. Tempting Faith is far more than its highly publicized excerpts about some Bush staffers dissing Christian leaders. (That comes as no surprise, since the administration-like the GOP generally-is made up both of Christians and anti-Christian libertarians.)
The publicity barrage has ignored some valuable specific detail on how the Bush faith-based initiative went astray early on. Kuo notes that the 2001 Bush tax cut left out "the president's promised $6 billion per year in tax credits for groups helping the poor. Those tax credits had been the centerpiece of compassionate-conservative efforts for years."
The White House, Kuo charges, decided that it was more important to cut the estate tax than to help the poor and decentralize poverty-fighting. Not wanting to make the big tax bill any bigger, the Bush administration fought against key congressional staffers and succeeded in having the anti-poverty tax credits dropped.
In our interview, Kuo said that Republicans on the Senate Finance Committee were "dumbfounded" by the White House switch: It was a "direct trade" to emphasize the estate tax over the compassionate conservative agenda. Kuo stated that "everyone in the West Wing knew" about the trade "and didn't exactly protest."
Kuo includes more detail about Bush administration problems but stated that "the very last thing I wanted was some anti-Bush book for the sake of being anti-Bush." And yet, Kuo in February 2005 wrote a Beliefnet article critical of the Bush administration that received considerable attention and led to his Free Press contract. He acknowledges that he knew the anti-Bush excerpts would be liberal fodder this time as well. So why did he write this book the way he did and agree to its publication shortly before a crucial election?
Kuo in our interview gave two reasons. First, he still wants the compassionate conservative movement to succeed, and this is a way of attracting attention to its yet-unrealized potential: "If this hadn't come out now, how many conservatives would even have given it a single thought?"
Second, "The point for me is the spiritual point-Jesus must always be first, always." He wants to communicate to Christians, "Please understand that you are being used. Look shrewdly at that and remember, remember, remember that Jesus must come first."
A third reason should not be overlooked: Publishers would not pay much for only a Kuo spiritual memoir, but books with Bush-bashing lines bring big advances. Kuo would not state the exact size of his advance for the book but said "it is commensurate with what I made in public service. No, it is slightly more." He added, "To all those who say I am doing this for financial gain, I find it ironic that they are making nice salaries themselves, enabling them to make that criticism."
Others, of course, have their own agendas:
- Free Press, a division of Simon and Schuster, obviously wants to sell books. Kuo signed a contract last year to produce a book for publication in the first quarter of 2007, but the company-with Kuo's consent-shrewdly moved up publication to present an October surprise that would yield anti-Bush buzz. Nine pages of publicity materials accompanying Tempting Faith do not quote anything from the spiritual/political autobiography that makes up the first half of the book.
- The liberal press agenda in pushing the book is clear, as it was clear regarding the relentless reporting of Rep. Foley's disgrace: Suppress the Christian conservative vote. Kuo's revelation that some Bush staffers called certain Christian leaders "ridiculous" and "goofy" helps in that process, as does Kuo's over-the-top proposal that Christians take a two-year "fast" from politics.
- Bush administration staffers last week attacked the book, and Kuo asks rhetorically, "Is the White House using this to mobilize Christian conservatives by showing how much the 'liberals' are out to get them? Absolutely. They see this as a great opportunity to stir up the controversy necessary to mobilize blasé evangelicals."
Kuo in our interview noted a typical reaction to criticism by some Bush staffers and their supporters: "Saying anything negative in any way against GWB wasn't just bad taste or wasn't just the wrong thing for me to do (lack of loyalty) but a sort of heresy." Last week Jason T. Christy, publisher of The Church Report, called Kuo "an addition to the Axis of Evil" who "is being used to try and prop up the liberal left, to breathe life into lifeless campaigns and his master literary work is a mere smokescreen. Questioning the faith and motivation of this administration is wrong."
Others have been more nuanced in their critiques. Stanley Carlson-Thies, who worked alongside Kuo in the White House faith-based office, commented, "Whatever the political dimensions and shenanigans, the Bush faith-based initiative is part of a large movement that began before the Bush administration, will continue when a new president is sitting in the Oval Office, has global counterparts, and is vital for effective social assistance. . . . It is tragic to trivialize the important work that has been done."
And Kuo will probably not gain much support for his proposal that Christians withdraw from politics for two years. Asked why he did not instead call for increased discernment, he said, "The fast isn't to say don't vote." He emphasized instead the need to contribute more thoughtfully: "$200 million has gone to the RNC [Republican National Committee] alone this year-almost all of it from small-dollar donors, good men and women (probably Christian) who are wanting to do just the right thing, but what is it buying us?"
Christians need to be discerning and to accentuate biblical ways of helping widows and orphans. But the irony of Kuo's critique of political idolatry is that, if followed fully, it would increase the power of those who are the most idolatrous. If the saints go marching out, others will march in unimpeded.

Awesome Mule Deer!!! and good speed goats also
About a month ago, when I first started posting on the forum, A couple of you asked me to post pics of the Buck I wrote an article for EHJ in the 2001 Mule Deer issue. That was easier said than done. Back in those days, I didn't have a digital camera (and if memory serves me correctly, Eastman's didn't allow digital submissions back then). I have some great pictures of him, and he is hanging in our living room, but nothing on my computer. I was back home in Missouri last week, visiting the wife and kids, and broke out the scrapbook and scanned a few. So here he is.... (I also attached a couple of the antelope I shot in past years... both of these were fairly nice. The second is a lot nicer than he looks in this picture. He would have been over 80" if he had even close to decent diggers, but hey he was shot in a WY unit that doesn't even exist anymore, that is how good it was... hahaha. Unit 13 for those who may remember it.)
Sorry about the picture quality, my scanner isn't the best, and I am an old fart so I have lots of photos from "back in the day".
Hope everyone is having a GREAT week and that you all draw the tags you want!
Awesome Mule Deer!!! and good speed goats also

Katy Perry and John Mayer have ended their relationship, according to a report.
Editors at E! Online report the couple split last week.
The pop star began dating Mayer in August, 2012, but they parted ways early last year before reviving the relationship over the summer.
PHOTOS: Katy Perry through the years
The rocker was noticeably absent during Perry's trip to Europe this month during which she attended the BRIT Awards in London solo.
News of the split comes just days after Perry sparked engagement rumors by sporting a large diamond ring on her left hand.
The "Roar" star previously said of her relationship with Mayer, "(It is) a rad, mature relationship… He's just a fantastic partner. I've been a fan of his for such a long time. He's got a brilliant, brilliant mind."
The stars recently stepped up their romance by recording a duet, "Who You Love," and performing together.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A new item on Lt. Col. Joni Ernst's checklist as she packed up for annual training with the Iowa National Guard: denounce the health care law in the weekly Republican radio address.
The Iowa state senator is running for the U.S. Senate but is leaving the campaign just as her bid against Democratic congressman Bruce Braley is heating up. Ernst won a five-way Republican primary last month and immediately joined Braley in a fierce back-and-forth over who should take the place of retiring Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin.
Then duty called. Just hours after she taped the Republicans' national address Thursday night, Ernst drove from her rural southwest Iowa home to join her unit. She is leading a convoy of trucks to Wisconsin for two weeks of drilling at Fort McCoy.

Samoa Joe vs CM Punk
Based on a vague exchange between the two on social media, a lot of fans are under the belief that Samoa Joe and CM Punk are going to be working a wrestling match against one another in the near future. They are no longer with TNA and WWE respectively. However, the odds of that happening are quite slim. Punk is under contract with UFC, and it is highly unlikely that Dana White would allow one of his fighters to be involved in a wrestling match.

BREAKING: Panthers OT Jordan Gross has agreed to a restructured contract. Base salary reduced from $8.7M to $1M in '13, $6.7M to $1M in '14.
I'm not sure at this point if years were added on to the contract, but that would make sense. Hope to know more soon.
That'll help.

Since most of the underlying components are of the Open Source variety, would Zimbra be able to do the IPv6 thing?
my_networks and such and also the fact that it binds to only one single IP Address is why I ask. Or do I need to have a component install with an IPv6 only Zimbra box feeding a regular IPv4 Zimbra box?
I plan on setting up a test box to play around but wanted to get some of the "low-hanging" fruit observation(s) stuff first before I dive in an' all..... ;-)

WASHINGTON – The autopsy of a woman found last Friday on a Fairfax County roadway confirms she died from being run over.
Fairfax County police say they're still investigating why Shelinda Arrington, 21, got out of her car and had some sort of altercation with the driver of a dark-colored SUV with temporary license plates.
Police believe that's the vehicle that hit her, but they don't know if the incident was road rage or if Arrington knew the driver before this fight.
Witnesses told police this weekend they saw Arrington exit her car and get into a heated discussion with the driver shortly before 11:30 a.m. on Harrison Lane in the Mount Vernon area.
Police say the autopsy shows Arrington did die from being hit by a car, not from the altercation with the driver.

The World Vaccines Market Is Predicted...
Researchers Are Developing Ways to Edit...
Enobia selected Lonza for the production of its bone-targeted enzyme-replacement therapy ENB-0040, under investigation for the treatment of hypophosphatasia (HPP). Lonza will provide process validation and commercial manufacturing at its large-scale biologics site in Portsmouth, NH, with an option to extend production to a second Lonza site.
HPP is caused by a deficiency in the tissue nonspecific form of alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP), an enzyme that plays a key role in regulating bone mineralization. Without TNSALP, inorganic pyrophosphate accumulates extracellulary and inhibits skeletal mineralization, leading to rickets in pediatric patients or osteomalacia in adults. ENB-0040 is proposed to directly target functional alkaline phosphatase to the patient's bones to help correct the enzyme deficiency.
Enobia recently completed a Phase II juvenile study. It met the primary endpoint, demonstrating a statistically significant improvement in rickets when compared with historical matched cohort controls. Rickets, a softening and weakening of the bones, is often seen in children with HPP and can lead to fractures, pain, and deformity.
The company previously reported the successful completion of a trial in infants. Participants reportedly continue to demonstrate functional and respiratory improvements in longer-term follow-up. A Phase II study in adolescents and adults with HPP is ongoing.

A fully armed Eaton County tactical team responded to a home in Bellevue after getting a 911 call this morning.
The Sheriff's Office says it was hard to hear the man on the phone, but dispatchers thought they heard the word "shooting." No one answered when they called back.
When deputies arrived at the home, on the 200 block of Catherine Street, no one answered the door. Eventually, the team made contact with someone inside, and learned there had been no assault of any sort. The area had been cleared as a precaution. One man was taken to Ingham County for a parole violation.

Hi Bryan,
First of all I don't know a thing about Unit 24 so I can't help you there. But if it was me, as a member of Huntin Fool, I would contact them and let them know the unit I drew. They would then send me a list of member hunters who have actually hunted that unit in the past few years. Most hunters I call have been very helpful in sharing information. I would highly recommend becoming a member, it is some of the best money you spend on western hunting. You can Google their name and find out about their services.
I would also contact the game warden and wildlife biologist responsible for that unit. They are usually very helpful.
As far as your meat and trophy, if you are flying, here are a couple options:
1) Locate a meat processor ahead of time and discuss options. Many game processors are geared for fast turn around. I have had deer cut, wrapped and frozen in as little as 24 hours (if I brought it in in the morning). A processed and frozen deer becomes pretty manageable for putting in a couple ice chests and taking on as luggage. It will keep at least 24 hours frozen. Check the airline rates for doing this. If you pick the meat up well before your flight, buy some dry ice. Dry ice has huge freezing ability and will even freeze partially frozen meat. Some processors will also have the meat freighted, that is an option, but check the prices ahead of time, as I once got burned and spent $800 having an elk freighted when I did not get a specific price. I was told it would "not be too much" and it ended up being shipped in a refrigerated truck.
2) If you are not sold on taking the meat with you, some processors also have donation programs, where the meat is donated to needy families.
3) If you get a nice trophy you want mounted, you can leave it with a local taxidermist (do your homework ahead of time). Most taxidermists will mount and ship it too you. That way you don't have to deal with the cape and antlers, which are pretty bulky to take back on a flight.
4) If you just want to get the antlers home, you can split the skull and deer antlers becomes very compact and can be put in a large duffel with your gear. A taxidermist could then mount it on a plaque. Check ahead with your taxidermist on this.
5) I really love European mounts. If I was in your situation and wanted a European, I would leave it there with a taxidermist who would have the skull cleaned with dermistis beetles (meat eating beetles) and then have him ship it UPS to me. It will be pretty light and affordable that way.

Item # FIZ0058
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Tail Lights in stock than that.View Similar Products
Fi'zi:k Blin:k Tail Light $0.00
Props to Fizik for curing one of cycling's perpetual annoyances. There's nothing worse than going for an early morning spin and having your thighs brush again and again and again against the tail light you've affixed to your seatpost. You've gotta ride with a tail light -- we feel safer riding with a tail light but no headlight than vice versa, in fact -- and Fizik makes it worlds more pleasant now. Starting in 2007 most of Fizik's best-selling saddles are integrated Clip System (ICS)-specific, which means they have a tiny plastic receptacle under the saddle shell. The Fizik Blink Tail Light has a male end that plugs right into this ICS opening. The Blink recesses under the shell and literally becomes one-in-the-same with the rear of your saddle. Your thighs won't graze it, and you won't have to wince at the sight of a chunky light wrapped in an anything-but-streamlined fashion off the back of your seatpost. Your legs (and your shorts) will be happier, and your bike will look worlds better.
The Fizik Blink Tail Light has 2 bright LED's, and it works in your choice of a blinking or a constant mode. You can switch between these (and the off position) simply by pressing on the light itself. It uses one CR2032 battery, and you can swap the battery out without tools. Just so you know, the following saddles are ICS compatible provided that they are vintage 2007, not earlier: Aliante Carbon and Arione (no matter the rail type: braided carbon, Titanium, or k:ium), Arione Tri 2, Aliante Gamma, Pave HP, Vitesse Tri, Vitesse HP, Gobi, Nisene HP, Rondine, Nisene CP, Pave CP, Vitesse CP, and the Rondine CP. If you're unsure whether your saddle is ICS compatible, simply look for the ICS receptacle beneath the shell. Or feel free to contact us and we can help you make sure one way or another.

What color does this light omit?
Have you seen what real LEDs can do?
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is very convenient because it snaps right into the seat, but does not meet the mail for safety. A good LED light can be really bright and noticeable. This light is not bright enough to catch the attention of motorists. There are much better options and I ended up replacing it with a Light-n-Motion.
Diggin' the Blin:k
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I really like the simplicity of this light. It snaps into the saddle with ease! I use this in addition to another rear light on my seat post for a little more insurance of being seen by idiot drivers.
small and always there
What I like about this light is how small it is. I put this on my wife's bike because she has a fizik saddle. It' very small and not very bright but it's always there. If we are going for a night ride we put an additional (super bright) light on in addition to this. Clipped right into the seat.
Good intergraded design
Just wish it was brighter...
Not Compatible with all Fi'zi:k saddles
I ordered this light and it's a great design but is not compatible with my Fi'zi:k Gobi mtb saddle or my Fi'zi:k Aliante road saddle. Make sure the grey plastic Fi'zi:k clip on the rear of the saddle is removable prior to ordering
nice integration
I love integrated products. fizik saddle accessories are really slick. I use this on both my mtb and road bikes for night riding. It's not super bright but as a secondary rear light it's awesome and looks trick.
A "Must Have" for Fi'zi:k saddle owners
This little light is awesome. I can always depend on it to turn on and stay on, which has been a problem with other pricier tail lights that I have used. And it seems to be just as effective alerting cars to my presence as any other tail light I have used. But more importantly, it is small and discrete keeping your bike looking sleek while cruising to, from, and around campus (rather than a big goofy red light dangling off your seat post). To install you simply pop out the Fi'zi:k logo under your saddle and clip the light in.
Write your question here... Will this fit...
Write your question here...
Will this fit into the female receptacle on a lookin seat? I currently have a light that shorted out that look close to yours. It has an SR logo.
yes it will fit in the Selle Royal ICS socket. Selle Royal is the parent Co of Fizik and the saddles come out of the same factory

ATLANTA, Ga. -- MARTA's board chairman is defending a $144,000 study, even though the taxpayers who funded it have no tangible evidence that they got their money's worth.
Late Tuesday afternoon, MARTA board chairman Fredrick Daniels insisted the study has improved efficiency at the transportation authority.
"The public should feel comfortable the money was spent in the right way," Daniels said.
When pressed how the public can know that, Daniels responded, "We have improved performance on behalf of the management team."
In late 2010, MARTA signed a contract with The Business Psychology Company, a consulting team. According to documents provided by MARTA, the consultant was hired to, among other things, "evaluate the effectiveness of Dr. Beverly Scott, the General Manager/CEO of MARTA."
According to documents provided by MARTA, the transit authority's board agreed to pay $144,000.
MARTA spokesperson Lyle Harris says the consulting firm presented its results to the board during a December, 2011, retreat.
But the authority can produce no documentation that shows the results of the study.
State Representative Mike Jacobs, the head of the legislative committee that oversees MARTA, says the spending is questionable at best.
"The expenditure came at a time that MARTA was hemorrhaging money red ink," said Jacobs. "They're still hemorrhaging red ink. An expense of this kind needs to be scrutinized very closely."
Harris explained that part of the reason why there is no documentation on the study is that the board didn't ask for it.
"We saw an improvement in terms of their working relationship," said Daniels. "We saw improvement in terms of their efficiency, so it was well worth the taxpayers money to invest in the training that was put forth for the organization."
11Alive is continuing to dig to see if there is any documentation of the report presented orally during the December, 2001, board retreat.

Video: Child shot in the back while in bed
FAIRBURN, Ga. -- An 8-year-old boy was shot in the back late Tuesday evening as he lay in his upstairs bedroom.
The shooting happened at around 11:30 p.m. at a home on Hassana Lane in Southwest Fulton County.
His family says Ahijah Gefford is in stable condition at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston.
Fulton County Police Sgt. Scott McBride said several shots were fired from outside the house by someone in a vehicle, or possibly by someone in the neighborhood firing randomly. Police do not think the home was targeted.
Four other people in the home, including Gefford's mother, sister and grandparents, were not injured.
McBride said police do not have a description of a vehicle or a suspect.
Meanwhile, neighbors in the normally quiet subdivision, can't believe it happened.
"I've been living here about 15 years now, so far since I've been here it's been a nice neighborhood and I'm shocked to hear that happened," neighbor Dwane Landry told 11 Alive News.

Hello, I just installed a Zimbra server and I have 15 Win XPP workstations accessing it via the web interface. They love it. They need new mail notification so I installed the Toaster application. I can put their login credentials into the preferences and it loads in the system tray and works fine. The issue I have is how do I get the toaster to run when automatically when they login? They have to open the toaster app which then presents them with the configuration screen and then close that screen to get it to load in the system tray. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help!

This is a well built bag, it is intended to be used for carrying tools and any other things(camera, lights..) that you may need to access while diving. I bought two, so I could use one for carrying tools on land.
Was this review helpful? Yes No
120 out of 236 people found this review helpful.
This is a great bag for every day use. I ordered one because of the value, I have been in search of something I could carry my belongings in while traveling. I have a couple great backpacks, but dont always want the bulk. A messenger bag fit the bill as they are comfortable, practical, and stylish. I also own a DeepOutdoor BP/Wing and if I were to travel with my gear, I could be cooool. Now to the review. The product seems well built. Sturdy Fabric and stitching. 2 padded pockets for portable devices 1 about the size of a CD case 3 deep. The other maybe a 14.1" laptop or any tablet. A couple of places for pens. Plenty of pockets. Really, not a regulator bag. But can be used as one. I definitly see possibilities for this as being more than just a travel accessory if I wasnt in such a dirty line of work (Construction) I would probably use this every day. As a matter of fact if this goes on sale again for what I got it for (a steal) I would probably buy three more, 1 to use for work, 1 for my regulators and a spare to the one I have now.

I'd say the scariest movie I've ever seen was the excorcist. I first watched that alone at night on time. Bad decision. I couldn't sleep. I was so ******* freaked out by that movie. What is the scarriest movie in your opinion and why?
The Ring or Strangers. Because they were scary.
XBox Live: Le Schmick
I was actually just a little freaked out when I saw one of the newer Texas Chainsaw Massacres with Jessica Biel in it. Not sure why. I've watched plenty of stupid horror movies. But, for some reason, that one bothered me for a couple of nights...
As corny as it was, Candyman. I have never, and will never, stand in front of my mirror and say "Candyman" three times in a row.
As for downright scary, I'd have to agree with Exorcist and The Ring. Both were messed up.
The Strangers, I watched that at my girlfriends creepy *** farm house in the middle of nowhere, and I was poopin my pants.. Big ole duece, in the shorts, scary... I dare you to watch that movie out on someones farm.. Do it..
Never even heard of The Strangers. I'm going to have to check that one out.
The Shining. A true masterpiece.
The Strangers was not scary.
I saw The Ring when I was like 14. Freaked me the eff out.
When the evil girl crawled through the TV set at the end of "The Ring", I screamed like a little girl and curled up in the fetal position.
I was also creeped out by "The Blair Witch Project".
The ring, Strangers, excorcist, oddly enough Joy Ride freaked me out. It made me hate truck drivers lol

Yep. When that girl crawled out the tv that was it for me. And The Blair Witch is definitely creepy.

The only thing that kind of got me in the strangers is the fact if you just look out your window and you just see a random person standing in your yard staring at you. If you picture it..definitely not cool. Especially after they have been messing with you. AND if your in the middle of bum eff no where.
I was 10 or 11 at the time and I snuck out of my room at like midnight to watch TV and the Devils Advocate was on HBO. Thats the only time I've ever been scared watching a movie (outside of the occasional "make you jump" scenes.)
In the PG-13 category I must submit M. Night Shyamalan's "Signs" (The one with Mel Gibson). Yeah, just a harmless PG-13 movie, right? show your 12 year olds that movie then prepare for a long week.
Pereant osores!
Black Attack 6 scared the bejesus out of me

Borla 140135 - Borla Ford Car Stainless Steel Cat-Back Exhaust Systems
JEGS Part Number: 157-140135Cat-Back Exhaust System
Borla Ford Car Stainless Steel Cat-Back Exhaust Systems
Under Pressure... Built To Last... Worth Its Weight In Gold...
Millions of exhaust systems are replaced every year due to corrosion and poor performance. Exhaust gases attack the system from the inside out while vibration, chemicals, road salt and other harsh conditions attack from the outside. When you consider the stress your exhaust system endures, it's easy to see why you need a Borla Stainless Steel Cat-Back Exhaust System.
Borla builds their cat-back exhaust systems from 100% T-304 aircraft quality stainless steel, not mild steel, not aluminum, not coated aluminum. While coating substandard materials like mild steel may prolong life, these coatings suffer and typically fail at the weld points. Stainless steel maintains true to form and function at all points for superior corrosion protection. As the guys at Borla say, "When you compare coated materials to 100% T-304 stainless steel, it's like comparing gold-plated metal to solid gold!"
Borla's world-class build quality and performance gains are considered by many to be an outstanding investment. And Borla's One Million Mile Warranty is proof that they take their products very seriously.
With split rear exits, these Cat-Back Systems include connection pipe(s), muffler(s), tip(s), and necessary mounting hardware.

Spikes stepped up for Herd in win over Morehead State
HUNTINGTON - When the outside shots weren't falling for Marshall in its win Wednesday night over Morehead State, that's when Nigel Spikes, all 6-foot-10 of him, stood tall.
Spikes was one of the Thundering Herd's leaders in the 70-67 victory, scoring a career-high-tying 13 points with nine rebounds, six on the offensive end. He also had an assist and blocked a shot before fouling out.
Not spectacular but solid, and that's what coach Tom Herrion's Herd needs out of the senior from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., especially with starting big man Robert Goff out with an injury. Yous Mbao, the 7-foot-2 reserve, is out indefinitely.
Spikes scored half of his four field goals in the first 3:25, with both baskets fed by DeAndre Kane. Later, as the Herd battled back from a seven-point deficit, Spikes tapped in a Kane miss.
In a half in which the Herd shot 26.5 percent and hit just one outside shot against the overaggressive Eagles, every basket was precious.
"We thought we could go inside a little bit more," Herrion said. "They took us out of a little bit of our ball-screen offense early on with some of the traps so we had to post a little bit more early. We wanted to play inside out, which I thought we did a better job of.
"Went to Spikes early - a healthy Nigel Spikes, as we've talked about. I think we are reaping some of those benefits."
Herrion refers to Spikes' knee injury, which slowed him all last season. Limited to 16.1 minutes per game, Spikes averaged just 4.1 points and 4.8 rebounds.
After seven games, all of which he has started, his averages are up to 7.6 points and 8.6 rebounds in 25.0 minutes per game. He relinquished the team lead in rebounds to Dennis Tinnon (9.0), but still has a 23-21 edge on the offensive glass.
Spikes was strongest in the second half against Morehead, which adjusted somewhat after Tinnon's 11 first-half boards. Tinnon still finished with 16, while Spikes had six after halftime to give him his nine.
"It's safe to say he rebounds better than me," Spikes said of Tinnon. "When they double him, I can just get the loose ball."
Amazingly, Spikes didn't score a field goal off his four offensive boards in the second half. His only basket came on a short hook shot in transition, but he did get himself to the line for eight free throws, making five.
In doing that he caused Morehead more headaches as the game went on. In one sequence, Spikes got the offensive rebound on a Kane missed free throw and pitched it out front to set up the offense again. He then rebounded a missed Kane layup, rebounded his own miss and got fouled. He made both free throws to five MU a 44-40 lead.
"Everyone says making plays is making a shot. Making plays is offensive rebounds, stick-back, foul," Herrion said. "Do you know how much that breaks a team's back? You shoot, you go get one, you go get two, and then they foul you on the third shot. They're climbing a mountain.
"Some grown men in there tonight, boys."
Spikes being one.
Scanning a few scoresheets, you learn that a half-point per offensive board is a low ratio.
"I'll take 24 offensive rebounds, and you could tell me that we only had 12 second-chance points, but I'll go home tonight sleeping pretty good if we get 24 offensive rebounds," Herrion said. "We will get more second-chance points through the rest of the year."
After the game Kane shook his head at the stat sheet, then regained his confidence.
"I'm going to make my free throws," he said. "I've been missing them; now I'll make them."

|FMSC food packing exceeds last year's totals
|Written by Russ Pankonin, The Imperial Republican
521,640 meals feed 1,427 kids one meal a day for a year
This year's Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) MobilePack™ event prepared more than 521,000 meals for children during the five-day event held in Imperial, Neb., July 23-27.
One of the organizers of the event, Dick Banks of Imperial, couldn't say enough good about all the volunteers and donors who made this another successful event.
This marks the third year the FMSC MobilePack™ has been hosted by Imperial.
The organization that sponsors the event, Southwest Nebraska Meals for God's Children (SNMFGC) committee, crossed a major milestone for the effort, packing their 1 millionth meal during the week.
Over the past three years, SNMFGC has packed 1,297,920 meals for starving children around the world.

Pictured from left are Christine, Kristopher, Steve and Harold Hadeen. This year's FMSC MobilePack™ event drew volunteers from 39 different towns and cities in nine different states. The volunteers packed more than 500,000 meals during the five-day event. —Imperial Republican photo
Food headed to Haiti
Kevin Ewing, an FMSC supervisor at the event, said the food packaged in Imperial will be headed for Haiti.
Ewing said the country is still reeling from the devastating earthquake several years ago.
As a result, food has been scarce for people in the mountain villages of Haiti, which is where much of FMSC's aid to Haiti is targeted.
Right now, Ewing said Haiti is the largest recipient of FMSC food packages, followed by Nicaragua, the Philippines and the East African state Kenya.
The demand is so great in Kenya that they can only provide one meal every other day to children there.
1,340 volunteer slots filled
Banks said they had volunteers from 39 different towns and cities, with nine different states represented.
The states included Nebraska, Colorado, Kansas, Idaho, Florida, California, Georgia, New York and Nevada.
He said they are seeing many of the same people coming back to pack each year, creating a regional-like family that want to help feed kids.
With a total of 18 packing sessions from Tuesday through Saturday, July 23-27, there were a total of 1,340 packing positions that were filled by volunteers.
He said they had a number of volunteers who packed for more than one session, with a pair of Goodland, Kan., girls who helped throughout the whole week.
One packing cell full of experienced volunteers packed 110 boxes, or 23,760 meals, in a two-hour session. That set a new all-time record for FMSC of most boxes packed by one cell during a session.
Each meal pack, or manna pack as it's called by FMSC, provides six meals.
It contains a vitamin- and mineral-rich, chicken-flavored powder, vegetable noodles, soy granules and white rice.
Once sealed, the food product inside the bag is good for at least 18 months.
Banks said the SNMFGC plans to sponsor another event next year, with tentative dates set for July 22-26, 2014.
He noted they are within close reach of their $115,000 needed to pay for the meals packed in July. He noted any additional donations will gladly be accepted.
For more information on donations or FMSC, people can contact Banks at 308-883-0397 or any of the other committee members: James Marlatt at 308-882-6386, Paul Hickman at 308-414-1407 or Rhonda Hickman at 308-414-1406.

In the political season, anything goes
(Page 2 of 2)
This wouldn't be the first time that political zealots have allowed the government to cease functioning. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich allowed his members to do exactly that, and he will be the first to admit that it was a colossal mistake. Members of the Republican majority suffered badly after the shutdown, and were rebuked by the voters in the next election for their arrogant conduct.
Some of the more reasonable Republicans are urging restraint and trying to discourage any action to stop the country from functioning. But if the cuckoo birds can't shut the Capitol down, they have another alternative. They want to stop the government from extending its debt limit. That means that all of the things that the federal government has already done can't be paid for, such as paying American servicemen and women.
While the political mischief continues in Washington, there's plenty of plotting and planning at the state level to stop Americans from voting. Six states are in the process of passing laws to do away with early voting and to require people to have official identification to cast votes.
The goal is simple: stop some people from casting their ballots in the name of preventing "voter fraud." If voter fraud were a real problem, I'd be the first to endorse these actions, but they're nothing more than voter suppression laws.
There's no question that the world views America as the model for what a democracy should be. As a nation, we try to promote our vision of a democratic government wherever we can. The battle to be the next mayor of New York City or county executive of Nassau is the kind of contest that best reflects what we stand for.
The attempts to shut down the government or to force us to stop paying federal debts are an example of democracy at its worst.

"Shrink it and pink it." Sound familiar? It's a commonly used marketing strategy for women. One the National Football League lived by up until recently. But now, with women comprising roughly 44% of the NFL's audience, the League has decided to revamp its approach to women.
Their solution? "The Savvy Girl's Guide to Football" – a 16-page, NFL-sponsored insert in Marie Claire's September issue. (They also have plans to roll out similar ads in Vogue and Cosmopolitan.)
Inside the advertorial, you can find fashionable football apparel (think tight tees paired with leather leggings), fanicures, and tips on hosting a big-game party.
Now, full disclosure: I am no football fan. But there's a part of me that still finds this somewhat patronizing. Sure, the shades of pink and glitter may be gone, but the idea that women watch football solely to throw parties while wearing a cute outfit is still there. Things like football glossaries in women's fashion magazines simply feed into the idea that a female fan knows less than a male fan. And, okay, that may be the case for some of us. But it isn't the majority.
Some women don't need a football glossary. They don't want to know how to make the best game-day chili. And they're not just in front of the TV on Sunday to impress a boyfriend. Some women just want to – gasp – watch the game, in a regular jersey that fits. Tall order? Not so much.

Tallahassee, Florida- July 12, 2012
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), along with local law enforcement agencies, as part of Operation Safe Summer, arrested 23 sex offenders and predators statewide who failed to comply with Florida registration requirements. When a sex offender fails to register with law enforcement their whereabouts are unknown to police and citizens who live near them.
"We identified and targeted the most dangerous absconders. In most of the cases we were dealing with cold leads," said FDLE Commissioner Gerald Bailey. "Working with our law enforcement partners, new leads were developed allowing us to locate and arrest these sex-offenders-in-hiding."
Operation Safe Summer coincided with the end of the school year, because children are more likely to come in contact with sex offenders/predators during the summer months. In addition to the arrests, investigators believe 20 targeted absconders have fled the country. Their identities have been given to the US Marshals Service so they can be arrested immediately if they try to return.
"The Sheriffs of Florida and their thousands of dedicated staff have declared war on sex offenders and internet predators--if you hide from us, we will find you," said Volusia County Sheriff Ben Johnson, president of the Florida Sheriffs Association. "We are dedicated to keeping the streets safe and ensuring citizens know when an offender lives among them."
Florida Police Chiefs Association President and Tallahassee Police Chief Dennis Jones said that police departments and other law enforcement agencies across Florida are working hard to keep citizens and especially children safe from sexual predators. "Sex offenders know that by law they are required to register with local police agencies, because citizens have a right to know if a sex offender is living in their neighborhoods. I applaud the FDLE for initiating this statewide effort to locate and arrest people who are illegally trying to escape notice in our communities."
While absconders were arrested throughout Florida, other targeted offenders/predators remain at- large. FDLE and local law enforcement agencies will continue to search for these offenders. If you have information about the target absconders still at-large or any sex offender absconder, contact your local law enforcement agency or FDLE.

Solve the greatest mystery of all time!The fabled lost continent of Atlantis is out there somewhere and you might be the one to find it! Journey through ancient lands on your quest to find Atlantis. Assemble the pieces of curious artifacts – each one pointing the way to an amazing discovery. Atlantis Quest is a journey of unforgettable family fun!
1.Click on any tile to swap it with an adjacent tile. Tiles may be swapped horizontally or vertically. Match three or more tiles to clear them from the board.
2.Move artifact pieces towards the bottom of the puzzle by matching the tiles beneath. When a piece reaches the bottom, it is added to the artifact.
3.Use the Hammer, Shovel, and Sandglass power-ups to help clear difficult tiles. But keep an eye on the timer bar at the bottom of the screen – if it reaches zero, you'll lose a life!
· Since you need to drop artifact pieces off of the bottom of the board, give priority to vertical matches underneath artifact pieces, since those will drop the piece further towards the bottom.
· Remember that you can use artifact pieces in swaps, and that being able to swap with the piece above it gets an artifact piece that much closer to the bottom.
· When you can't make a match that directly affects an artifact piece, remember that matches elsewhere on the board often change the board enough that you can work your way to a match that does affect one.
· Don't underestimate the value of Hammer and Shovel power-ups. Very often you just need to get rid of one piece to finish the level, and a Hammer or Shovel is a great way to do that.
· Later in the game, locked pieces will appear on the board, and will unlock when they are matched for the first time. Locked pieces significantly affect your flexibility, and should be cleared as soon as possible.

Not just where you're going, but where you've been.
The Fenix utilizes Garmin's GPS technology to provide navigation and tracking functionalities to guide your next adventure, whether by road, trail, or machete-hacked jungle. The built-in sensors give you the information on heading, elevation, and weather to guide you, in simplest terms, from Point A to Point B. On top of electronics worthy of the space program, the Fenix was built to endure the harshest abuse that Mother Nature can dish out and look good doing it.
The Fenix is equipped with altimeter, barometer and compass sensors to
provide relevant real-time information. The three-axis electronic compass keeps your bearing
whether you're moving or not. The built-in altimeter provides
elevation data to accurately monitor ascent and descent, while the
barometer can be used to predict weather changes by showing short-term
trends in air pressure.
The Fenix lets you create routes, record up to 1,000 waypoints (such as campsites or points of interest), and record GPS bread crumb trails on the move (tracklogs). Navigate to coordinates, along a track or route, towards waypoints, geocaches or along any other selected bearing. The TracBack function guides you back along a previously recorded tracklog so you can easily find your way to the safety of a vehicle, trailhead or campsite in case of an emergency or bad weather conditions.
The Fenix is equipped with both ANT+ capabilities and Bluetooth to wirelessly share tracks, waypoints, routes and geocaches with other compatible Garmin devices or smartphones. The ANT+ features also make the Fenix compatible with heart rate monitor straps and other ANT+ devices. It also auto-calibrates its ABC sensors using its GPS receiver and automatically sets the time based on location. It provides real-time performance data, such as distance, pace, cadence and calories, helping you keep track of your progress during and after your adventures.
The Fenix combines a strong housing to survive shocks with a mineral glass lens to resist scratching. It boasts a large LCD display with LED backlight and a robust polyurethane wristband. It's waterproof to 50 meters and has a battery life of up to 50 hours in GPS mode (depends on settings) and up to 6 weeks in watch mode. Basic watch functions include alarms, tones, vibration alerts, timer, stopwatch and world clock with the ability to display several times zones at once.
The Garmin Fenix comes in one size. It's available in Black.

Had High Hopes
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
After owning many other Garmin products I gave the Fenix a shot. Needless to say I was quite disappointed. The unit I received never worked. Not even once. I went for a four hour hike and came back and uploaded the data to view it. It showed that I did a 40 second hike. From there it got worse and would not get a satellite signal or register anything for that matter. I contacted Garmin support which was just as effective as the Fenix watch I received. I finally returned it (although I felt like smashing it with a hammer like the photo below) and resorted to using my old Garmin 705 on hikes and backcountry skiing instead.
Good from Far, Far from Good
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have put this watch through the ringer over the past 4 months and have found my opinions at this point. This watch is great fit on the wrist and the buttons don't accidentally press when in use. The Fenix looks nice and is user friendly when setting up or when working with it in the field. I just recently spent a year with the Forerunner 610 and this watch had accidental button issues and a small screen.
The GPS when working does download nicely with Garmin Connect and provides a really good interface of your route/training history that is usable and easy to use. Kudos for this feature as I find it indispensable.
So that's the good, the bad is I constantly have issues with the satellites initially connecting, the ANT+ does not always stay connected to my HRM band and the bluetooth is useless as it does not connect to my IPhone. The ANT+ issue is really bothersome as adding additional devices like power is not gonna happen.
Garmin really needs to allow us to download the latest software to the watch and make this unit truly dynamic and a tool that you can modify and grow with your needs and activity. Why we don't have good software upgrades is boggling to the brain with today's technology and fast changing pace of software development.
This is a good watch just don't expect it to do what it's little microprocessor could be possible of doing.
Ride ON!
Does this work with the heart rate...
Does this work with the heart rate monitor?
You should have no issue pairing this with any ANT+ heart rate monitor.
So happy using my hammer
I smashed the watch using a big hammer. After months of disgraceful experiences using this device on the trail, I feel myself free. Battery problems, freezes thousands of times. Inaccurate readings, etc. This is the worse Garmin GPS ever (I own 5 different models, without any complaints).
I''ll buy a Suunto Ambit unit wich I am pretty sure is a more solid gadget.
Will this watch do area calculations, such...
Will this watch do area calculations, such as acreage, etc????
Yes, it WILL do area calculations.
Great Watch: Easy to use
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Been using this watch since Christmas 2012. Mainly I use it as a trail running watch, but also on a few winter hikes in the Appalachians.. It grabs the signal pretty quickly and is very accurate (after I updated the software). IMPORTANT to keep the software updated.
If you are just a runner this probably isn't your watch. If you Hike, Hunt, Run, etc - this is your huckleberry. I like the Garmin Connect features which allow you to share maps. I was talking to a guy about a trail that we run and I was missing a turn that would take me on a longer run by the river. After about an hour of, "you know where it gets sandy - just after the power lines..."he just sent me his route and I saved it on my watch. Very cool and practical.
I look forward to using it more for hunting and winter backpacking this year. I will be carrying my JOOS to keep it charged while in the backcountry. When in GPS mode it can suck the battery.
Hope y'all find this helpful.
Favorite watch yet
I absolutely love this watch. I took it out the other day for a 2.75 mile hike, and it performed beautifully. the gps worked wonderfully at recording my track. Plus I feel the altimeter, barometer, and compass functions are more accurate than my suunto core. But then again, those don't have GPS functions, and are still pretty accurate. Very happy with my purchase!

YORK, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - York police say a woman has been arrested after stealing a dump truck from a construction site in York, and drove it into a park vehicle at a Cape Neddick residence.
On Sunday night, police say that 28-year-old, Kristin Plante, was under the influence of either drugs or alcohol when she stole a 1998 Chevrolet small utility dump truck registered to Budel Construction of Rochester, New Hampshire.
