Diamonds in the Shadowlands
Spring Training | As a new baseball season begins, a personal reflection of the past 50
C.S. Lewis, as many WORLD readers know, called this world "the Shadowlands." In a parallel way, Hasidic rabbis referred to heaven as "the true world." We know we see through a glass darkly, with God graciously giving us glimpses of heaven through occasional aspects of our lives. The danger is that we turn glimpses into objects of worship, mistaking the shadows for the true world.
On June 26, 1975, after the worst years of my life, as Christ was slowly dragging me to Himself, I walked 12 miles from an apartment west of Boston to the spot in the city where I had always felt happy. I sat in the Fenway Park stands for the game that evening between the Red Sox and the Yankees. Watching Luis Tiant's winning pitching, his body twisting with every fastball and curve, I felt hopeful.
After the game I took the subway/trolley as far as I could and then walked the remaining miles to that apartment, singing under the stars. It turned out that true love was around the corner: A year and a day after that game, Susan and I were married, and both of us professed faith in Christ about four months after that. But for 18 years now I've written occasionally in WORLD about baseball, and the question still hangs: Do sports and sports fandom turn us toward God (see books like Sermon on the Mound) or away from Him?
I'm asking these questions anew because 2010 is a golden anniversary for me. In 1960, as a child in Boston, I became a Red Sox fan, and 50 years later remain one. Many WORLD readers are long-term fans (the word derives from "fanatic") for their favorite teams. Is such a bond spiritually helpful or harmful? And there's also the curious question of why these bonds develop.
I'd like to say that, for me, aesthetic reasons are paramount. Soccer aficionados have reason to call their pastime "the beautiful game," but baseball has its own loveliness. White ball, green grass, blue sky. The thwack or ping of bat on ball. The geometry of the race to first base. The soaring of fly balls descending into gloves sprinted to the right spot. The individualistic staredowns between pitcher and batter. The crowd sounds that arise without electronic stimulation at late-inning moments of maximum confrontation.
Or I could emphasize the memories many readers and I have of particular moments and particular locations: I've watched games at 41-plus major league and spring training ballparks, and if I close my eyes I can remember the look of almost all of them. Venerable Fenway Park and Wrigley Field, of course, but also the old and new parks of the Orioles, the Yankees, and the Mets. I can mentally contrast the thankfully demolished modernist multisport monstrosities in cities from Philadelphia and Atlanta westward with beautifully quirky postmodernist parks in Baltimore, Cleveland, Arlington, Denver, Seattle, Phoenix . . .
But let's face it: Fans are needy, because all of us are needy. "Physician, heal thyself," the saying goes, and a parallel one is, "Journalist, reveal thyself." Aesthetics and memories both work wonders, but the main reason I became a fan was . . . my neediness. And if I don't admit my neediness, what chance is there that you, dear reader, might-whatever you're a fan of-admit yours?
In 1960, the year I became a 10-year-old baseball fan, my mother went to work as a secretary at a tannery in Peabody, Mass. The smell was bad but her sense of defeat was worse: Her sisters had married rich businessmen and she, who had snagged the smart husband, a teacher, took dictation. I became a latchkey kid, comforting myself with after-school snacks of Fig Newtons and Nestlé's Quik with a bit of milk: I was, in essence, mainlining chocolate syrup.
As the new fat kid on the block, lonely and bored during the summer, I discovered on the radio and sometimes on television the voice of Red Sox announcer Curt Gowdy rhythmically describing the exploits of players from mysterious places like Yazoo City, Miss., and Ponca City, Okla. I used $10 of the $11 that comprised my life's savings to buy a transistor radio at Radio Shack that I could listen to every evening and put next to my pillow when it was time to go to sleep.
The Red Sox finished next to last that year, but I was loyal to them and even made my way to an afternoon game in September. It was dark walking in under the Fenway stands and then through a tunnel to my seat, but suddenly came a blaze of light over-I was a city kid-the largest and greenest patch of green I had ever seen. Later, when reading 17th-century poet Andrew Marvell, I ran across his lapidary line about "a green thought in a green shade." That was Fenway Park for me. Was there something like that for you?
In October 1960 the Red Sox were not in the World Series-they had not won a Series for 42 years and would not win one for another 44-but the Pittsburgh Pirates were. I suspect many of our older readers will remember watching on television as Bill Mazeroski of the Pirates hit a home run in the bottom of the ninth inning of game seven to defeat the New York Yankees. Mazeroski circled the bases, waving his cap, and anything was possible.
Except to be a good player myself. In the spring of 1961 I determined to do more than watch and listen to baseball: I decided to play. My father, a good man who liked only to read, considered this foolishness, but from somewhere among the relatives an old, 1940s-style pancake glove emerged. With that and my Nestlé's-Quik-and-Fig-Newton-honed body, I went to the Little League tryouts as an 11-year-old who could hardly catch. To make up for my defensive liabilities I had a classic rusty gate swing.
Placed on a team, I received my requisite one at-bat per game and one inning in right field or left field. Since the coaches didn't spend much time with a pathetic player, I asked my father to throw me some groundballs on the street-we had no backyard or green space nearby-and he obliged. I missed the first ground ball. It rolled and kept rolling. I fetched it and yelled at him for throwing one I purportedly couldn't reach, even though the error was mine. He walked inside. We never played again.
Is it any wonder that I tear up when watching a pretty bad movie, Field of Dreams, where a Kevin Costner from my dad-despising generation yearns for a game of catch? Admit it-do some of you do that also?
The coach who cut me from my sixth-grade baseball team in 1962 did me a favor: I had better prospects in studying history and learning how to write. In 1963 I stopped going to the synagogue and started taking the trolley on Saturday mornings to the Boston Public Library in Copley Square. There I would crank the microfilm of old newspapers, often reading sports-page accounts of the Red Sox world championship years of 1903, 1912, 1915, 1916, and 1918. Then I'd walk the mile to Fenway Park and sit in the right field stands. Tickets were cheap and easy to buy on game day, because the Red Sox had a losing record every year through 1966.
On April 29, 1967, I hung on through an extra-inning game where the temperature dipped below freezing. The Kansas City A's scored a run in the top of the 15th but the Red Sox scored two in the bottom to win the game, 11-10. A meaningless game between seventh and ninth place finishers the year before who weren't expected to do better in the new season? So it seemed, but the Red Sox soared that year and ended up winning the American League pennant on Oct. 1-by one game. (They lost the World Series, of course, four games to three.)
In 1968, off to college and communism, I still kept track of the Red Sox. By 1975 they were winners most of the time, and Susan and I watched on TV, in Michigan, Carlton Fisk's past-midnight walk-off home run in the bottom of the 12th inning of the sixth game of the World Series. New Yorker writer Roger Angell, in an essay titled "Agincourt and After," described the moment this way:
"I was watching the ball, of course, and so I missed what everybody watching on television saw-Fisk waving wildly, weaving and writhing and gyrating along the first-base line, as he wished the ball fair. . . . John Kiley, the Fenway Park organist, played Handel's 'Hallelujah Chorus,' fortissimo. . . .
"I suddenly remembered all my old absent and distant Sox-afflicted friends. . . . I saw all of them dancing and shouting and kissing and leaping about like the fans at Fenway-jumping up and down in their bedrooms and kitchens and living rooms . . . and on back-country roads (a lone driver getting the news over the radio and blowing his horn over and over, and finally pulling up and getting out and leaping up and down on the cold macadam, yelling into the night), and all of them, for once at least, utterly joyful and believing in that joy-alight with it."
Is that blasphemous? Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus," of course, proclaims that "The Lord God Omnipotent reigneth. . . . The kingdom of this world has become the kingdom of our Lord . . . and He shall reign forever and ever, King of Kings, forever and ever, and Lord of Lords, Hallelujah!" That's a far cry from Fisk of Fisk, even if he is a Hall of Fame catcher. But . . . through that event did we get a brief, shadowy glimpse of heaven's utter joy? So what if the Red Sox once again that year lost the seventh game of the World Series. (If I were a Yankees fan, would I mistake earth for heaven?)
Over the next three decades came many memorable games. At a ballpark date Susan and I had in 1976, Detroit pitcher Mark Fidrych ("The Bird") pitched magnificently en route to his Rookie of the Year award. Fidrych manicured the pitching mound at the beginning of each inning and talked to baseballs before he threw them. New York's Graig Nettles once tried to rile him by stepping out of the batter's box and talking to his bat. Nettles later explained that he told the bat, "Never mind what Fidrych says to the ball. You just hit it over the outfield fence!" Nettles struck out and later explained why: "Japanese bat. Doesn't understand a word of English."
But this shadowland of a world is not our home. Joy that lasts more than a moment is always bittersweet. Fidrych tore the rotator cuff of his right arm the following year and never again pitched effectively. He bought a farm in central Massachusetts. Last April 13 Fidrych was on his farm underneath a 10-wheeled dump truck, trying to fix it, when his clothes became entangled with the truck's spinning shaft. He suffocated. The Tigers had a moment of silence before their game on April 15. On June 19 Jessica Fidrych threw the ceremonial first pitch before a Tigers game-after manicuring the mound as her dad had done.
In 1986 the Red Sox were one strike away from elimination in the American League Championship playoffs, but sore-armed California Angels pitcher Donnie Moore, who needed cortisone shots to throw at all, served up a home run ball. The Red Sox won that game and Moore, perhaps because of injuries, never regained his effectiveness. Off the field, his marriage disintegrated. On July 18, 1989, he culminated an argument with his wife by shooting her three times, then fatally shooting himself in the presence of his 8-year-old son, Ronnie. In this shadowland, Boston joy was Moore misery.
Later in October 1986, the Red Sox in the 10th inning of a late game were one strike away from winning the World Series against the New York Mets. I woke my eldest son Pete, then 9, who had fallen asleep on the couch, so that he could see the Red Sox triumph. Instead, he watched the Mets score two runs to tie the game on three hits and a wild pitch. He heard my anguished cry as a ground ball rolled between the legs of Sox first baseman Bill Buckner and the Mets won: That moment has been rebroadcast thousands of times.
Boston media crucified Buckner to such an extent that baseball fan John Hodgen, who lives about five miles from Fidrych's farm, felt moved to write a poem based on that error. "Forgiving Buckner" includes these lines: "The world is always rolling between our legs. It comes for us, dribbler, slow roller. . . . We spit in our gloves, bend our stiff knees, keep it in front of us, our fathers' advice, but we miss it every time." Only Christ provides true hope: "the oh of your mouth as the stone rolls away."
Because most religions emphasize an exchange-we do something for God, He does something for us-it's easy to think that if we work hard enough we'll win. But Christianity is all about amazing grace, and it's grace that I've received. Starting when they were toddlers I was able to play catch with each of our four boys. Starting in 1985 I could watch one or more of them play baseball for 21 straight years.
The Red Sox finally won the World Series in 2004. When the players paraded through the streets of Boston, it was like the victory scenes in Star Wars or The Lord of the Rings. New Orleans had something like that recently when the Saints won the Super Bowl. In both cases the teams won after decades of disappointment, with some fans perhaps learning (as the apostle Paul wrote to the Romans) that "suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame."
Of course, as Chicago Cubs fans would remind us, in this shadowland a century's wait may not be enough. But even so, forgiveness provides a glimpse of heaven. After his 1986 error Bill Buckner moved to Idaho, became a real-estate developer, and named one of his subdivisions "Fenway Park." Two years ago, on April 8, 2008, after the Red Sox the previous fall had won their second World Series, Buckner-a Christian-strolled slowly from the real Fenway Park's left field door to the pitching mound. His task: to throw the ceremonial first pitch for the team's home opener. His joy: He received a five-minute standing ovation.
"Is this heaven?" a young player asks when he glimpses the field in Field of Dreams. He's told, "No, it's Iowa." When we mistake earth for heaven we need reminding: "No, it's the Shadowlands." But searching in the shadows, through God's kindness, we can find a diamond.

Video: Town Hit By Sandy Now Devastated By Fire
SEASIDE PARK, NJ (APP.COM) -- Wood burns. Fires happen. Boardwalks get damaged. This we know.
What was "unthinkable," as Gov. Chris Christie phrased it, was that it happened here, and now.
*If you're viewing this on our iPad app, click VIDEO then choose photo option.
Had a bully of a storm not cold-cocked this mythic corner of the Jersey Shore just 319 days ago, the breathtaking fire that chewed up a chunk of the boardwalk through Seaside Park and Seaside Heights Thursday would still have been disastrous.
But the timing and context of it gave this fire an extra, emotional dimension for those who witnessed it, whether at the scene, on TV or over the Internet. The Jet Star coaster may have been removed months ago, but the trauma of superstorm Sandy still lingers. It somehow made the smoke that much blacker, the losses of businesses and jobs that much greater, the still-unfolding story of the fire that much sadder.
"It's horrible. Why is God doing this to us again?" asked a distraught Connie Hawkins, a Sandy victim from the Ortley Beach section of Toms River, who rushed to the scene after spotting the smoke while she was at the bank, depositing her FEMA check, no less.
"How much more can we take?"
There were flashbacks from the storm: Utilities were cut off. The Route 37 bridge was shut down. The governor was there, looking very grave. All day, the bad news spread on social media, even faster than the fire.
"It has been a long and emotional day for all of us here at Maruca's Pizza," read a Facebook post from the iconic Seaside Heights boardwalk pizzeria. "I am very sad to notify everyone that our building has been damaged and potentially destroyed by the fire."
Was this really happening? The borough of Seaside Heights, which raced the calendar to finish the extreme makeover of its storm-damaged boardwalk in time for Memorial Day, had scheduled a bonfire on the beach this weekend to celebrate its centennial.
The festival is called "New Heights," but this is a new low.
"We're strong, we're Jersey Strong, but enough is enough," said Leo DiBella, owner of Bippy's Pizza, located two blocks inland from the fire.
"When is it going to end already?"
Michael Tierney, a councilman in Seaside Park, could scarcely believe what he was seeing.
"They're all gone again," he said of the businesses succumbing to the flames.
Mark Dorsey's little pong game stand was defenseless against such a blaze. The 21-year-old had invested nearly $10,000 to open the stand on Labor Day weekend. It was his first business venture, which he'd hoped would make enough money to pay down his student loans.
"I was thinking about running in there and taking my prizes, but it was way too late," Dorsey said. "I'm just speechless. It probably won't hit me until tomorrow when I realize I'm not going in to work."
The dramatic, daylong spectacle of towering plumes of smoke and windswept flames conjured images of the doomed Morro Castle cruise ship and the crash of the Hindenburg, disasters that were seared into the memories of earlier generations at the Shore.
Jennifer Katz said the smoke reminded her of the billowing cloud at ground zero that she saw from her home in Brooklyn 12 years ago this week.
The 20-year-old, who had moved to an apartment in Seaside Heights a month ago, described a scene of "complete chaos" near the fire Thursday afternoon.
Balls of burning debris were raining down on the boardwalk and beach. A child near her was choking on the smoke. A woman whose condominium unit caught fire was in a panic.
"She was just in the street screaming, saying she was going to have a heart attack," said Katz, who has first-aid training and tried to lend assistance.
"It's devastating," Katz said. "All the progress that we made from Sandy is completely gone."
Some said they feared that the fire might turn out to be even more damaging than Sandy.
"The hurricane took out some of the boardwalk. It was salvageable," said Sherry Jacoby of Seaside Park. "You ain't salvaging nothing from this."

Rare photos of Rolling Stones emerge from estate sale
Found: Rolling Stones
Photos of the Rolling Stones are not hard to find, but the majority of images from the height of the band's career consist of on-stage performances and posed publicity shots. That's why a stack of photos uncovered at a Southern California estate sale have attracted a lot of attention recently. These candid images show the Stones as they have rarely been seen - relaxing and appearing to enjoy a day out of the limelight. The photos are making their public debut in an exhibition at Dilettante in LA.
Interestingly, the photographer responsible for the images is unknown. They were captured in Savannah, Georgia and Clearwater, Florida on a 1965 US tour.

Here is the French patch for ZCS-6.0.2 (tar or zip files from ftp://ftp.whitehatmail.fr/pub/zimbra).
The installation is done as root with Zimbra running. Use the command:
The changes performed by this patch are:Code:./install-fr.sh
- Minor changes in the language files (a few shorter labels, use of Block Notes instead of Carnet to avoid confusions with 'Carnet d'Adresses').
- Removal of the file /opt/zimbra/conf/msgs/ZsMsg_fr_FR.properties (it is in English and is a sub-set of the "fr" file).
- Removal of the Starxpert save zimlet. It is not working with 6.x.
- Installation of the Google translator zimlet.
- French spelling dictionary
- Instant messaging activation
- Translation of the "Quota warning" message.
- Minor change to /etc/init.d/zimbra to see what is going on upon start/stop/status.
- Set 'fr' as default language for everybody.
- Disable Yahoo bar and other Yahoo zimlets (that I find more annoying than useful).
- Modify conf/zmmta.cf to verify the account existence before accepting an incoming e-mail.
The installation script asks before installing each of these modifications.

1965 Dodge A-990 Rearend Upgrade - Project Goldberg, Part 2Written by on May 1, 2008 Building An A990-Style Street Car
In 1965, when Chrysler initially built their A-990 Plymouths and Dodges, they only offered one rear axle-the 8 3/4. In 1966, the Dana 60 rearend became Chrysler's defacto standard for high-performance Mopars, but Chrysler continued to offer the 8 3/4. Today, many builders of cloned A-990 cars opt for the heavy-duty Dana rearend over the 8 3/4. There are several pros for the Dana, and they are all the same-it's as bulletproof as 15 layers of Kevlar. The cons in relation to the 8 3/4 are: The Dana is heaver, more costly, and changing gear ratios is a little less user friendly.
The 8 3/4 rearend is lighter, less costly to build, and with its drop-out center section, allows the owner to swap center sections within an hour. In comparison to the Dana, the 8 3/4 is lighter duty, but in contrast to the Ford 9-inch, the "world standard" for high-performance rearends, it's a virtual draw.
Chrysler's first installation of its 8 3/4 was in 1957, and the Sure Grip option was introduced in 1958. It was successfully used in Chrysler's full line of cars and Dodge trucks through 1974. During its life span, Chrysler used three different drop-out center section cases. The last one they used-known by the casting number 489-is the strongest and offers the larger pinion gear. The flexibility of the Chrysler 8 3/4 rearend allows a non-Sure Grip to be easily converted into a Sure Grip with the addition of a new Auburn unit.
In making a decision on the rearend for his A-990 clone, the owner, Bill Goldberg, considered the end use. Its primary use will be street driving, along with a few quarter-mile passes to get a baseline for its performance. If it were being built strictly for competition, Goldberg would have chosen the Dana. But with its intended street use, and giving a slight nod to the fact these cars originally used an 8 3/4, he chose the 8 3/4. The fact that original 8 3/4 housing was already hanging from the rear springs saved time and money. He removed it, and along with the backing plates, had it powdercoated in a semigloss black.
A local San Diego Mopar collector was the source for a 489 case. Goldberg looked at the several suppliers of rearend components and selected Strange Engineering for one-stop shopping for the heavy-duty components that fit inside the case and new axles. In line with being able to cruise at highway speeds, Goldberg selected 3.55 gears.
After a thorough cleaning and inspection of the 489 case, it went to Jerry Harder's Oceanside Driveline for assembly.
With the center section fully assembled, Goldberg dropped it into the powdercoated housing. The Strange axles were slid in, and the entire assembly bolted to a set of Super Stock rear springs. The original A-990 cars featured a 1-inch shorter wheelbase by moving the rear axle forward on the springs. For aesthetics, he opted to leave the rear axle in its standard location, which centers the rear wheel in the wheel opening. If it were a race car, he would have taken advantage of the relocated rear axle and dealt with the off-center look of the rear wheels. An adjustable pinion snubber will be added to the top of the 8 3/4 case.
The fully rebuilt rearend with the complete complement of heavy-duty Strange components should give Goldberg miles of driving pleasure with the confidence that it will hold together under full-throttle blasts.
Help Your Rear Survive
Here's a couple of tips you can use to ensure your newly built rearend has a long and happy life.
- Save the original pinion shim and use it as a baseline when checking pinion depth for the new pinion gear. More than 99-percent of the time, it will set the new pinion at the proper depth.
- Use Loctite sparingly.
- Mark the differential bearing-caps and return them to their original locations.
- Once a new rearend is installed, never roll the car-even one foot-without rearend lube.
- If equipped with a Sure Grip, always used the proper additive.
- If possible with a new differential, run the car with the rear wheels off the ground prior to driving for 5-10 minutes with no load.
- When first driving with a new rearend, take it easy for the first 200 miles. No hole shots!

Oceanside Driveline's David Bernal has already installed the bearing races in the 489 housing and is about to drop in the Strange pinion gear. He saved the original pinion shim from disassembly and used it as a baseline to set the initial pinion depth.Although his arms are large enough to torque the Yoke nut with a 1/2-inch wratchet, Goldberg is using one of David's impact wrenches to drive the yolk on; thereby compressing the crush sleeve. This is a critical operation that requires a specific torque number to preload the pinion bearings. David has done hundreds of rearend builds and can tell by the sound of his impact wrench when it's close to the correct torque. We checked his mettle with a torque wrench when finished, and sure enough, it was right.Before bolting the ring gear to the differential, Loctite should be used on the bolts, but sparingly-a little goes a long way.The ring gear is a press fit to the differential unit and must be heated slightly to allow it to expand enough to easily slide on. Heating should be done in hot water or an oven set at a warming temperature-never with a torch. Try using a torch, and you can develop hot spots and compromise the metal's integrity. Goldberg drives home the bolts that retain the ring gear to the Auburn Sure Grip differential unit. Remember, the bolts utilize a left-hand thread and should be tightened in a criss-cross pattern.As David drops the assembled ring gear and differential into the housing, he makes sure the differential's carrier bearings remain in their locations. If you look carefully, you can see that the ring gear already has the yellow "setting dye" used to adjust backlash. Back lash will be adjusted with the adjusters on the carrier housing.The proper spec for an 8 3/4 rearend's backlash calls for .008-.012-inches. We kept it to the lower side of the dimension and ended up with a setting of .009-inch backlash.This image shows the proper pattern (slightly toward the toe) on the drive side of the ring gear. It's best to check this pattern in at least two locations.Now the center section can be put into the housing. Prior to installation, Goldberg cleaned and deburred the mating surfaces and added a gasket with a small amount of sealer to prevent leaks.Wanting to make sure the finished rear would stay together, Goldberg decided that a stock axle may not survive his expected type of driving. For that reason, he slides in the Strange 30-spline SS rear axles to finish the installation. Strange offers either 5/8- or 1/2-inch wheel studs for their axles. Since this is a street car, 1/2-inch studs were used.
There's nothing high-tech here. All that's slowing the rear wheels is a complete set of new rear brakes and hardware. In 1965, the wheel studs on the left side of the car were left-hand thread. The new studs will have righthand threads.Goldberg leans into a breaker bar to tighten the U-bolts that attach the rear axle to the springs. The rear springs are Super Stock style, which includes the extra leaf on the righthand spring.Heavy-duty shocks complement the rest of the rearend components. It doesn't matter how good the car's rear is. If you can't plant the tires, it's useless. Although a fully adjustable gas shock can out perform a non-adjustable unit, it's the simplicity of getting in and not having to worry about that which makes the choice easy for a street car.Adding the adjustable pinion snubber is all that's left. From this angle, the subframe connectors are clearly visible. The floorpans and rockers are original.

Here is an article today from KUsports.com.
KUsports.com - KU awaits word on ballyhooed transfer
I think he just made a visit to Kentucky this weekend. That's my guess who gets him. This screams cy-bookie event!
Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge, which is power; religion gives man wisdom, which is control. Science deals mainly with facts; religion deals mainly with values. The two are not rivals. They are complementary.
Martin Luther King Jr.
Man, he has a tough choice. If Augustin leaves, he could have a place at Texas. I'm not sure how much playing time he would get at KU right away. He might be able to play some at Kentucky, but not sure about starting right away.
I think he gets the least amount of playing time at KU.
Wait Wait!!! His father is a Dr. and he failed to qualify out of high school??? How does that happen???
Please please come to ISU TA! You will be the man from the minute you get here!
Heck, we might even beat KU wednesday night. KU is slipping.

Now that MBB is back, do we still have to pretend that WBB matters?
What time is the announcement supposedly?
I think it's bad news since I believe he only contacted JayHawkSlant to let them know.
Who would be the next man in?
Who would be the next man in?
Who do you guys think? I think possibly Pomlee, but I don't know where we stand with him. I think we need anohter big guy. From what I have read, he is long, athletic, and played good defense this year. I think his offensive game needs some work. From the videos that I have seen, he has very long arms and a good frame to add muscle. On another note, what ever happened to Chris Williams? I am sorry if I have my head in the sand on this one, but I liked articles despite there being a curse on them (joking). Or what about Babb? He is a great shooter, but we do have Wes E. and Luca. What do you guys think?
sounds to me like it he is going to kansas, bummer!

Hwy 75 & 24th St SW Accident
(Le Mars) -- Shortly after 12:30 p.m. Friday afternoon, emergency crews responded to an auto accident at the intersection of Highway 75 and 24th Street Southwest. Two people were injured as a result of the accident and they were transported to the Floyd Valley Hospital by the Le Mars Ambulance. 22 year old Clayton Boyle of Sioux City was heading southbound on Highway 75 waiting for the traffic to clear before he made a left-hand turn on to 24th Street Southwest when 21 year old Tasha Wurth of Remsen also heading southbound, failed to see Boyle had stopped and rear-ended Boyle. Traffic on Highway 75 was backed up for few minutes as a result of the accident. The Le Mars Ambulance, Le Mars Fire and Rescue, Le Mars Police and the Plymouth County Sheriff's department all responded to the accident scene.
ATV Accident Injures 19 year Old Le Mars Man
(Le Mars) -- An ATV accident occurred south of town at the 2000 block of Lynx Ave. The accident happened at about 1:45 p.m. When Plymouth County Sheriff's deputies arrived they found 19 year Cody Ortmann of Le Mars lying in a cornfield and a Yamaha 450 four-wheeler in the ditch. Ortmann indicated that he had been traveling south on Lynx Avenue when he lost control on the gravel road where he was thrown from vehicle. Ortmann was taken to Floyd Valley Hospital by the Le Mars Ambulance with a lower left leg injury. Ortmann was then transferred to Mercy Medical Center in Sioux City. The accident remains under investigation and charges are pending.

Quigley's films are often filmed in days and on budgets that are rarely more than a very few hundred thousand dollars. What one remembers are the titles: "Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers" (1988), "Assault of the Party Nerds" (1989), "Sexbomb" (1989), "Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-a-Rama" (1988), "Virgin High" (1990) and "Beach Babes from Beyond" (1993). Connoisseurs of these films also remember some of the dramatic highlights: Quigley getting squeezed to death by a giant thing in a warehouse in "Creepozoids" (1987), or driving a tube of lipstick through her own chest in "Night of the Demons" (1988).

So, I installed Connector 7.2.x for Outlook 2007. I had some issues, so I decided to uninstall it and try again. Despite trying various methods to reinstall the connector (e.g.: uninstalling and installing, or just re-installing over an install) the connector never shows up in Outlook.
I read somewhere that you have to delete all zdb files (something like that). I found one under \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook and deleted it, but still not connector.
Any ideas about how to get it up and running? Thanks.

Looking good so far GP.
Just posting the first of the maps that I am doing for trade in getting Kaidan published as an adventure arc and setting.
The publisher, Dementia 5, is creating a Victorian Era Vampire D&D Adventure. He requires a ficticious neighborhood in London, which is the map posted here. Tomorrow night I need to create the first floor of one of those townhouse mansions in this neighborhood, as well as a map of that train station to the west of this map.
Next I have to make two train cars. One an aristocrats private coach car, and another private car used as a private laboratory on the track.
Then I need to create a small country village with a small train station and an old Keep on top of a hill. Finally I need to make a 30 room map of that keep in the style of my Lair of Lhessadrak map, which is Duchess Doku's residence - the vampiress of the storyline.
I'll post those maps here, when I am complete.
Although this is for publication, you can download and use it for personal use as per CC, but no posting elsewhere online or other publications, please.
Also when this adventure is published, I will post a link to the product here as well, probably a $5 or $6 PDF download.
Now the ficticious neighborhood of London map...
PS: I might create a simple tutorial afterward, I've learned a new trick using Xara Xtreme Pro. I draw straight and curved lines (the roads and railroad tracks), I make them various width lines like 24 point to 48 point lines, then I "convert line to shape", give the new shape a texture. This way I don't have to draw both sides of the road trying to things parallel, etc. Very easy to do. And that railroad track - the rails is an object with 4 point loutline, transparent center, then I cut the ends of the box. Next I draw a fatter line, convert to shape, apply a seamless old wood texture, then apply a repeating linear gradient transparency and create the wood beneath the rails - easy and fast!

Other than the boulder sized cobble used for the street texture, and that odd curving structure in the top center this is gorgeous! The colors are spot on with the Victorian theme. I would suggest scaling down the street texture to the proper size for cobble, enhance the shadows a bit more on the roofs to give them better slope, and perhaps randomize the chimneys just a bit to give the houses a little more organic feel. The hard curves of the train depot and that structure in the top center could be smoothed a bit as well. Overall, this is going to be another exceptional map from GP! Beautiful!

Looking good, and I love the colour scheme.
The houses need a drop shadow, currently they look like they are painted on the ground. Your chimney shadows are all over the place. I'm not convinced by the large brick texture on the curving building - the direction of the texture is really at odds with the shape of the building. Finally, the trees could do with a bit of shading on the trees themselves - currently they look like flat discs of leaves above the ground.
Sorry for being picky, but I think this is a great map and a few tweaks will make it even better.
I love the font and the feel of the map as a whole. I'm glad Dementia5 is working well. Sounds like a good pairing.
OK, an update to the Shropley Court, London 1891 map, colors may be slightly different - its actually hard to duplicate, but I made the changes mentioned above your suggestions from RPMiller and Torstan. Plus a couple additional changes as per request by the publisher.
Notably, the train station turned into the villain's manor house - not my decision. Added a link to a tavern inn to its south.
Next another train station map and two coach train cars, and perhaps a locomotive. Then village and Castle with dungeon to wrap things up.
Updated version below.

Ok, so that cobblestone pattern isn't going to work... What's up with the "vegetation" in the upper left? I still have no idea what that curving structure is. The chimneys are better, but something still feels "off" about them. Is it the drop shadow maybe? Perhaps they are too big for the scale? I'm just not sure.

The two things I noticed about the second one (admittedly the only one I looked at) were the lack of shadows on the top couple of buildings and the overlap of shadows that gives rise to darker spots. The shadow overlap thing is no doubt the result of result of drop shadows on each entity rather than a whole layer.
I do agree with RPMiller about the curved thing. It looks like a pointy berm to me.
Overall, though, it's quite nice.
Not that these maps do not deserve perfection, it has met approval by the publisher, and I've still got many more to create. Perhaps I'll tweak that London map again, before its over, but for now on to the next maps.
Still in WIP for, as I haven't completed the second car, but here are two railroad coach cars, both privately owned by the Aristocrat Physician (primary NPC of storyline.) One is his personal coach for the doctor and his guests. The window seats at the west end of the private coach car have beds that pull out of the walls and rest on the chair benches, so it can accomodate six sleepers. The doctor has his own private suite.
The second car, is the doctor's "mad scientist" laboratory. He has an office on the end that leads to his bedroom in the next car. Got to add "mad scientist" lab bench, security bed and chair (with straps) to hold down patients. Perhaps a "gas" room to force inhalation of toxic or other chemical fumes, a still, a burner and some chemical glassware on table.
Will finish this tomorrow!

Liking the coach car maps!
Not too enthusiastic about the London map though. Agreeing with RPMiller's and Waldronate's comments.
Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.
Gandwarf has fallen into shadow...
Hi GP, check out this link for reference material on Pullman coaches (if you have not seen it already).
For victorian roof tiles check out this link.
I don't know how much of a perfectionist you need to be with the map, but that style of roof usually had a curved tile on the ridge of the roof...might be worth putting in to give the roofs more definition.
I think with rank and file houses, individual chimney pots were unusual, usually there were a number of chimney pots to each chimney. I've done a very quick and dirty version here just to illustrate what I mean.
Hope this helps!

The Good Old Days...
On this date in 1831 a great snowstorm hit the east coast from Georgia to Maine. Thirty inches were common from Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. The D.C. Metro Area received thirteen inches while Baltimore was buried under a foot and a half. Philadelphia recorded an amazing three feet ! The area around New York City received fifteen to twenty inches while southern New England twenty to thirty inches was commonplace.
These kinds of snow totals would paralyze major metropolitan areas in modern times but they were just devastating before the days of central heat and electricity. Can you imagine trying to get to the general store by horseback ? Can you imagine just trying to keep warm and dry during severe winters in the early 1800s ? I think we take our modern day amenities and conveniences for granted. Yes, we lost power for a few days in the 2009 - 2010 winter but back then there was no power to loose !
On the opposite end of the spectrum; while uncommon, tornadoes can occur in January. The first recorded January tornado occurred on this date in 1990 in Florida. The United States as a whole averages at least one tornado each month. Ironically on this same date in 1993 and 1997 tornadoes touched down again across the Sunshine state. December, January and February average the fewest tornadoes during the year. The lower forty eight averages seventeen tornadoes in December, twenty in January and just twenty one in February.

WHEELING - Ohio County Circuit Judge James Mazzone sentenced Melody Fisher to 30 years in prison Wednesday for her role in the attempted robbery of the Elm Grove Pharmacy.
Mazzone also reminded her that she was solely responsible for the circumstance in which she found herself.
Fisher, 41, of Beech Bottom pleaded guilty last month to charges of first-degree robbery and conspiracy. Mazzone sentenced Fisher to 30 years on the robbery charge and one to five years on the conspiracy charge. The judge ordered those sentences to be served concurrently.

Melody Fisher sits next to her attorney, Edward Gillison, during a sentencing hearing Wednesday in Ohio County Circuit Court.
Fisher said she accepted responsibility for her actions but maintained she was not guilty of the crimes. She apologized to the victims that were present in the courtroom Tuesday and their families, as well as her own family.
May 25, 2012, was Stacy Hess' daughter's 17th birthday, and the pharmacy technician was 45 minutes from leaving work and joining her family when a masked Kevin Walnoha pointed a loaded gun at her and demanded she forfeit prescription pills. The trauma from the crime has caused Hess to undergo therapy, she disclosed. She said she is now wary and suspicious of customers, and recalls the robbery attempt every day.
Hess' daughter, Chelsea Hess, said she has since made her mother promise to never again go to work on her birthday.
Ohio County Prosecutor Scott Smith lauded the actions of pharmacist Anthony Martino, who spotted the robbery attempt on the monitor in his office, then armed himself. Smith clasped his hands and pointed his index fingers like a gun while he mimicked Martino firing two warning shots into the office floor. The business owner then exited his office and fatally shot Walnoha.
"Mr. Martino came out of his office and risked his life for other people," Smith said. "In short, Mr. Martino is a hero in every sense of the word - a true, real-life hero."
Smith also called defense attorney Edward Gillison's suggestion that Martino shot Walnoha while he was fleeing the store "simply outrageous."
Martino's wife, Michelle Martino, recalled the six harrowing hours that passed between the time she was notified of the crime and when she finally saw her husband. She said his personality has undergone a drastic change since the crime, adding that he rarely smiles or laughs easily.
Fisher's adoptive parents, as well as her husband, Hans Fisher Sr., expressed their skepticism about Fisher's culpability in the crime. They all doubted that she was capable of what the prosecution alleged.
Gillison said Fisher's family members have been victimized by the case, as well. Gillison pointed out that Fisher's 4-year-old son would go through childhood without his mother. Her teenage daughter graduates from high school in two weeks, the girl added, and said that day will be the worst of her young life.
"People have a right to be safe," Mazzone declared at the end of the hearing. "People should not have to get up in the morning and wonder if they're going to make it home for dinner. People should not have to wonder if they're going to go to work and look down the barrel of a gun."

I've tried to install RHEL4 binary on my SuSE linux , and have no luck to get it to work. I ran into symlink issues and corrected it, and ran into SASL version issue (it demands version 2.1.19 while I have 2.1.18 on my system) and so I went to upgrade it to version 2.1.19. But still getting error: ERROR:
service.FAILURE (system failure: getDirectContext) (cause: javax.naming.CommunicationException mydomain.com:389)
The installation log indicates :
ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)
I also tried FC3 binary and got the same thing.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times now and no luck to get all service started.
Is anyone get the binary working on SuSE linux 9.x? Or should it work? If not, my next attempt would be to compile the source . But some posts say compiling source on SuSE is more trouble some and it seems that zimbra is still working to port the source to SuSE.
Any suggestions/comments are appreciated.

The perfect nail polish has a dramatic effect upon the beauty of your hands and feet; however, manicures and pedicures that use inferior nail enamels have the opposite effect, making your nails appear sloppy rather than refined. Cheaply made nail enamels often apply unevenly and are not strong enough to withstand the basic activities of your day like typing, lifting objects and doing and undoing buttons, zippers and clasps. As a result, the tips of your nails often become chipped, requiring you to touch up your polish or remove it completely and reapply. The SpaRitual Color Enamel collection was formulated to give you the perfect polish every time and to be strong and resilient to make the need to reapply far less frequent.
All of the items in the SpaRitual Color Enamel range are blended by hand to ensure the highest quality. As a result, each time you apply one of the polishes in the SpaRitual Color Enamel collection, you'll enjoy an even, fast-drying, flawless application. By using only the finest pigments, the SpaRitual Color Enamel range offers long-lasting beauty.
Everyone loves the look of polished fingernails and toenails, but frequently taking time out of your busy day to reapply colors is a hassle no one enjoys. The SpaRitual Color Enamel collection features nail polishes that are as durable as they are beautiful, meaning your manicures and pedicures will last and last. The collection of nail enamels from SpaRitual is available in a variety of beautiful shades, so that you can find the perfect one to suit your outfit, mood and taste.
SpaRitual Nail Lacquer In The Buff is a completely vegan nail polish that is free of harmful chemicals, including DBP, formaldehyde and toluene. Because the lacquer is hand-blended, its color is always rich and vibrant, and its formula dries quickly to prevent smudging and smearing. The polish features the brand's signature Plum Cap, which is designed to always open easily. In the Buff is a creamy beige shade and is our most popular in the nail lacquer lineup produced by SpaRitual.
SpaRitual Nail Lacquer Idyllic has a sheer pink shade that is perfect for a subtle, rosy hint of color. The color is meant to enhance a carefree spirit and is our second most popular in the nail lacquer collection from SpaRitual.
SpaRitual Nail Lacquer - Health Wealth and Happiness has a bold, vibrant violet shimmer that everyone will notice. The color is our third best seller in the nail lacquer range from SpaRitual and comes in the same .5-ounce bottle as the other shades.

Swimming and Diving Inks Six for 2014-15
AMES, Iowa — Iowa State swimming and diving head coach Duane Sorenson announced Friday that the team will be adding six new members for the 2014-15 season.
"I'm pleased and excited about the class that we've signed this week," Sorenson said. "All six are outstanding athletes and more importantly they're great people; they all are a great fit with our team."
Sorenson also believes that this incoming class is among the best that he has signed during the fall signing period during his Iowa State tenure.
"All six have had a tremendous amount of success so far in their careers and the most exciting part is that they all have the potential to become so much better," Sorenson said. "Coach Kelly [Nordell] and Coach Jeff [Warrick] did an outstanding job recruiting this class."
Mary Kate Luddy swam at Millard North High School and for the Swim Omaha club team in Omaha, Neb. Luddy was a Nebraska High School state qualifier from 2011-2013 and was named Millard North High School Outstanding Freshman in 2011 and Millard North's Most Valuable Swimmer in 2013. Luddy will also be reunited with current ISU swimmer Kristy Kunkel, who was her teammate on her former club team.
"In Mary Kate's junior year, she was the Nebraska High School state runner-up in the 500 free, but her best events are not swum in high school, those are the 200 fly and 400 IM," Sorenson said. "She is a very bright, independent young lady that is a fierce competitor. She will immediately strengthen our 200 fly event in both dual and championship meets."
Laura Miksch, a sprinter from Columbus, Neb., swam for Scotus Central Catholic High School and the Greater Omaha Aquatics Leopard Sharks. Miksch was named Academic All-Conference and chosen to both NCPA and NSAA Academic All-State teams.
"Laura is a true sprint freestyler; she has an explosive start, loves to race and knows how to win. She won the 50 free by almost a body length at the Nebraska state high school meet her junior year and came from behind to win the 100 breast at that same meet," Sorenson said. "She often has to train by herself during the off high school season and I know she will turn a lot of heads by the time she is done at Iowa State University."
Danica (Da-NEE-Ka) Delaquis (DEL-A-KEY) will join the Cyclones from Winnipeg, Canada. Delaquis attended Vincent Massey Collegiate High School and swam for the Manta Swim Club in Winnepeg. Delaquis also qualified for the Canadian Nationals and represented Manitoba in the 2011 Western Canada Games and the 2013 Canada Games. Delaquis will be reunited with former club teammate Karyl Clarete.
"Danica is a strong and fast breaststroker and has posted some very fast times in both the 100 and 200 breaststroke races. She has competed successfully at many Canadian national meets," Sorenson said. "She's a great competitor and with her times from last summers' long course season she will become a major contributor her freshmen year in dual meets and at the Big 12 Championships."
Kasey Roberts attended and swam for St. Michael-Albertville High School in Albertville, Minn. in addition to the Sea Devils Swimming club team. Roberts was the recipient of the Mississippi 8 All-Conference Award all four years of high school and was named the MSHSL Section 8AA Swimmer of the year from 2011-2013.
"Kasey is versatile swimmer and who loves to compete. Her junior year she won the 200 IM at the Minnesota high school big state champions and was the runner-up in the 100 breaststroke," Sorenson said. "She also is a strong freestyle and has a fast 100 back time. So, she can swim so many different events and do them well that it will be fun trying to figure out what ultimately will be her best college events."
Kaitlin Wistey will be joining the Cyclones from West Des Moines, Iowa, where she was a three year letterwinner for Valley High School and swam for the Des Moines Swimming Federation. Wistey won the 100 backstroke at the 2012 Iowa summer long course state championships and placed fourth in the 100 backstroke and third in the 200 Individual Medley at the 2011 Iowa High School girls state meet. Wistey was also a member of the Valley team that finished runners up at the 2010 and 2011 state meets. Wistey's sister, Imelda, is currently a senior on the ISU swimming and diving team.
"Kaitlin will add speed and depth to our backstroke and IM events. She is powerful swimmer who is very coachable. She is a student of the sport and is very dedicated to become the best that she can be," Sorenson said. "Like the rest of the incoming class, she loves to compete and will be a contributor in her first season as a Cyclone."
Sydney Ronald, a four-year letterwinner out of Chippewa Valley High School, hails from Clinton Township, Mich. Ronald competed at the District 1 state meet as a freshman and sophomore placing fourth and was also an all-state and all-conference selection her junior year. Ronald holds the Chippewa High School records in the 6-dive and 11-dive format.
"I am very excited to welcome Sydney to our Cyclone swimming and diving team," head diving coach Jeff Warrick said. "Sydney has been a captain on her team at Chippewa Valley High School in Michigan. She is a great jumper which makes her exciting to watch on the diving boards. Sydney has a great personality, and she is going to be a lot of fun to coach next season."

Katherine "Kasey" Roberts, Minnesota
Mary Kate Luddy, Omaha, Neb.

We recently caught up with Paul Matthews, the winner of our competition to join us at our Autumn/Winter '14 preview at London Collections: Men.
All Paul had to do was post us a picture showing why he loves Superdry. This is Paul's winning image – safe to say, he's a super fan.
Here's what he had to say about his experience of The Event:
"What can i say? Best party I've ever been too! All this for having an obsession with a clothing brand! What Superdry has to offer in A/W14 is incredible – bold colours and fitted cable knits, you certainly won't go cold this winter.
"My wife, a lifelong sufferer of my obsession with Superdry, came along with me for the night. We arrived at the Old Sorting Office to be met by a friendly face, who took us up to what i can only describe as walking up the Shard..so many stairs! At the top floor we were greeted with cocktails and a vast bar area that wouldn't have looked out of place in any Superdry store. As we waited for the event to start, wondering where it would be, we were taken aback by the amount of people here for The Event and the fantastic food being served on illuminated trays. The music, very much like being in-store, kept everyone in anticipation. Then large white doors opened and we were allowed into the hidden catwalk area.
"Once in, sitting in the front row, the show started! Coats, jeans, scarves, hats…as models walked past us, I just kept thinking, 'I need everything in my wardrobe as soon as this collection is released later this year!'
"I was completely unaware of who i was sitting next to, until my wife pointed them out. Oliver Proudlock from Made in Chelsea, actor Ralph Little and Samuel L Jackson amongst others, we felt a little out of place!
'The event finished with a rousing round of applause, and then the party started. First with Nick Grimshaw taking to the decks, followed by Benji Boko – his set list was incredible! As incredible as the food that was going around again – chips, chicken, burgers and more. It was as if they knew that i was going to be there and that i have a very limited selection of favourite foods. Also, with a free bar flowing, i can easily say that that was the best party I've been to.
"I can see that, once again, we will see a lot of people walking the streets in Superdry's Autumn/Winter 2014 collection, especially in the women's range. As i mentioned before, my wife has never looked at a Superdry coat and instantly wanted to buy it – that night she saw four that she will be snapping up when they become available!
"All in all, thank you very much to Superdry for choosing my collection picture as your winner, and for putting on such a great evening for us!"
Thanks Paul, glad you had a great time. Don't forget to check out the pics on Facebook and Instagram #SuperdryLCM

Mobile video is quickly becoming a mass consumer phenomenon. More and more people are using their smartphones to search and browse video contents while on the move. This project is to develop an innovative instant mobile video search system through which users can discover videos by simply pointing their phones at a screen to capture a very few seconds of what they are watching.
The system is able to index large-scale video data using a new layered audio-video indexing approach in the cloud, as well as extract light-weight joint audio-video signatures in real time and perform progressive search on mobile devices. Unlike most existing mobile video search applications that simply send the original video query to the cloud, the proposed mobile system is one of the first attempts at instant and progressive video search leveraging the light-weight computing capacity of mobile devices. The system is characterized by four unique properties: 1) a joint audio-video signature to deal with the large aural and visual variances associated with the query video captured by the mobile phone, 2) layered audio-video indexing to holistically exploit the complementary nature of audio and video signals, 3) light-weight fingerprinting to comply with mobile processing capacity, and 4) a progressive query process to significantly reduce computational costs and improve the user experience---the search process can stop anytime once a confident result is achieved. We have collected 1,400 query videos captured by 25 mobile users from a dataset of 600 hours of video. The experiments show that our system outperforms state-of-the-art methods by achieving 90.79% precision when the query video is less than 10 seconds and 70.07% even when the query video is less than 5 seconds.

IBM recently announced security software that helps organizations proactively reduce the security risk to iOS enterprise apps. Clients will be able to build security testing into the initial design of mobile apps so that vulnerabilities can be detected early in the development process, before being deployed to customers or employees. Today's announcement further expands the IBM MobileFirst portfolio, which marries deep expertise with a comprehensive set of mobile software and cloud-based services.
According to Gartner, more than 45.6 billion mobile apps were downloaded in 2012. As the rate of app use on mobile devices increases, securing smartphones and other endpoint devices is a top priority for organizations and Chief Information Security Officers. With the proliferation of consumer and enterprise mobile apps, organizations cannot always control or restrict the apps installed on user devices, so they must test how apps send and save data. IBM's new security software can automatically identify where data enters and leaves a mobile app, helping to prevent mobile data leakage.

It's a given that criminals such as arsonists and serial murderers often return to the scene of the crime -- sometimes to relive the crime. But not only criminals do so.
Detectives, prosecutors and juries must also revisit the crime scene. Detectives may need to re-examine the evidence, prosecutors may return for case preparation and jury members may need to review the crime scene to make a decision.
To do their re-evaluations, investigators typically rely on photographic evidence and two-dimensional drawings. Since we live in a three-dimensional world, however, it can be difficult to visualize the positional relationships of evidence with two-dimensional tools.
What if agents could measure with extreme accuracy thousands of data points per second in a crime scene? What if an agent could capture that information, recall it and create his or her own virtual representation for use during a trial?
Through a combination of laser and computer technology, high-definition surveying (HDS) creates a virtual crime scene that allows investigators to maneuver every piece of evidence.
HDS reflects a laser light off of objects in the crime scene and back to a digital sensor, creating three-dimensional spatial coordinates that are calculated and stored using algebraic equations, said Tony Grissim, homeland security and law enforcement liaison for Leica Geosystems HDS, based in San Ramon, Calif.
"An HDS device projects light in the form of a laser in a 360 degree horizontal circumference," he said "The HDS is measuring millions of points, creating a 'point cloud.'"
Think of letting off an insect bomb in your apartment -- millions of particles create a fog, and the resulting cloud settles on all objects in your apartment. With HDS, instead of millions of data particles settling on the objects, those data points are bounced back to the receiver, collected, converted and used to create a virtual image of any location.
An average desktop personal computer can now take the data file and project that site onto your screen. Not only has the scene been preserved exactly, but the perspective can also be manipulated. For instance, if the crime scene were the front room of an apartment, the three-dimensional image allows the investigator to move around and examine different points of view.
Or perhaps the victim was found seated. An investigator could see and show a jury what the victim might have seen. If witnesses outside said they looked in a living room window, an investigator could zoom around and view what the witnesses could or could not have seen through that window.
Cloud of Information
"Understanding evidence documented on a 2-D drawing of a staircase is difficult," said Derry Long of Plowman Craven & Associates (PCA), a land surveying company based in the United Kingdom. "If you create a 3-D staircase and cut-away, the relevance of evidence is often clear."
Long spent 12 years as a civilian employee of Scotland Yard, where he designed police stations and developed computer modeling. At PCA, he uses HDS to re-create crime scenes down to the submillimeter level. Although PCA's focus is working with builders and developers, Long created the first HDS call-out team in Europe for criminal investigations.
His team, on-call 365 days a year, responds to about 150 incidents each year.
Many times, Long responds to a scene weeks after crime-scene investigations are concluded. His job, then, is to scan the scene, and then use the photographic documentation and crime-scene notes to re-create the scene.
Long recalled a recent homicide where the murder was thought to have occurred in the kitchen, but no one could determine how the body ended up in a hallway. By re-creating and studying the crime scene, investigators examined different points of view and the positional relationships of the evidence.

Cloud computing is a shift in traditional computing that gives businesses on-demand access to a variety of software and services while giving IT a shared pool of configurable computing resources at the platform, infrastructure and application layers. When done right, cloud computing helps businesses do more, faster by letting them tap into the power of massive datacenters and IT services without having to build, manage or maintain them.
Because it lets IT offload complexity and burden, letting your team focus on addressing the growing demand for new applications, new devices and new solutions for the resulting data explosion. In this fast-paced world of more devices, more apps and more data, IT is more challenging and exciting than ever. IT can answer this call for "more, faster" with cloud computing – so your employees can deliver new projects and products, manage more devices easily, crunch more data quickly, and spin up dev and test environments faster.
Microsoft is committed to delivering the broadest array and depth of cloud computing solutions to businesses worldwide through three key areas:
First, the consistent cloud computing platform is built to realize our vision of a unified platform for modern business, which we call the Cloud OS. At the heart of the Cloud OS is Microsoft Azure, an open and flexible cloud computing platform that enables you to quickly build, deploy and manage apps across a global network of Microsoft-managed datacenters.
You can build applications using any language, tool or framework. And, with System Center, you can integrate your public cloud applications with your existing IT environment. For companies wanting to build their own private clouds (on-premises), Windows Server and SQL Server, as well as System Center come into play.
Second, we deliver a cloud computing productivity suite in the form of Office 365 that offers the best and deepest productivity experience available today, spanning business intelligence, unified communications, email, collaboration and social capabilities.
And the third key delivery is a suite of business solutions through Microsoft Dynamics that deliver easy-to-use cloud computing and private cloud solutions for CRM and ERP to help organizations grow fast while managing costs.
Microsoft believes you shouldn't expect any less from the cloud, you should expect more. Yet, some cloud computing providers are asking you to make compromises – on ease of use, on feature sets, on hybrid, and more. When you're making a choice to adopt cloud, you should work with a company with the experience, reach and footprint you can trust fully. Because Microsoft has a long history of running internet-scale services, we give customers the best of the cloud, on their terms, without compromising on capabilities.
While we believe, over time, many services will move to the cloud, today, most businesses live with the reality that they need both on-premises and cloud services. That approach to cloud computing is called hybrid cloud computing. True hybrid cloud ensures your past IT investments are leveraged, not lost. Others may talk about it, but Microsoft delivers hybrid cloud computing.

STABLE AREA TO OPEN FEBRUARY 1AUBURN, WA. (November 7, 2012) – Emerald Downs will open its stable area Friday, February 1, in advance of the 2013 racing season, track Vice President Jack Hodge said.
Dates for the 2013 live racing season have not been set, but the season most likely will start in mid-April and run thru September. The tentative schedule will need approval by the Washington Horse Racing Commission before it can be announced. The 2012 meeting, which included 81 racing days, began April 13 and concluded September 23.
The stable area typically opens two months before the beginning of live racing.
