After Eight Marathons, She Made It To Boston
May 6 2016
Her fifth, sixth and seventh marathon were all tries for a BQ, but it turns out eighth time is the charm!
Much like life, running requires perseverance and faith that all will work out in the end. When tough times come, you must keep fighting to defy limits and exceed expectations. Whether you hit the wall at mile 2 of a 5K or mile 20 of a marathon, your ability to keep moving forward defines your will to succeed. Always remember: what doesn't kill you, makes you awesome. True story.

Gazette/FOC Relays notebook: Kanawha Valley schools have a strong Saturday
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The Gazette/Friends of Coal Relays hasn't always been kind to Kanawha Valley schools in recent years.
In fact, Hurricane's Class AAA title in the 2009 girls meet still stands as the last Relays team championship captured by a school from Kanawha or Putnam county. That pattern seemed to continue during Friday's opening portion of the six-tiered meet, as Kanawha Valley teams won just seven events.
It all changed, however, on Saturday.
Kanawha Valley schools accounted for 19 event victories, giving Charleston-area schools four individual winners of multiple events in the weekend meet. In addition, two athletes earned high-point honors in their respective meets - Anacia Hines of St. Albans (girls AAA) and Dylan Rich of Buffalo (boys A).
One of those double winners was Poca sophomore weight thrower Christian Buckley, who swept the shot put and discus with respective efforts of 46 feet, 6 inches and 156-3.
Those marks fell short of his seasonal bests of 49-11 and 162-81/2, but Buckley was satisfied.
"I would have liked to have crossed 50 in the shot,'' he said, "but it didn't happen for me. Still, I'm happy with my performance.''
Buckley got a bit of a run in the shot, as he beat Westside's James Adkins by just 2 inches. That's unusual for Buckley, who leads all West Virginia AA athletes by more than 3 feet in the shot and more than 16 feet in the discus this season.
"It was nice to see some schools here we don't normally see around the area,'' Buckley said. "I think it's definitely going to help. I haven't had that much competition in the shot for a while, and it was great to see some good throwers.''
The other individual multiple winners for the Kanawha Valley were:
Another impressive effort was turned in by Capital freshman pole vaulter Tristan Slater, who matched his season-high by clearing 13-6 in the boys AAA meet.
"I'm satisfied,'' Slater said, "I wanted 14 feet. I didn't get that today, but I know I can get it the next time.''
Slater and Winfield's Chris Cochran have vaulted a foot higher than anyone else in the state in AAA this season, but Cochran didn't clear any height Saturday.
With his efforts, Slater may become Capital's most-accomplished vaulter since former state champion Jennifer Hansen, who graduated in 2005. It's been even longer since a Cougars boy had that sort of impact in the event at the state meet.
But Slater thinks it's already started a new tradition.
"Yes, I think it might,'' he said. "There should be a girl vaulter coming up next year who's doing really well, too - Hailey [Snodgrass of Horace Mann]. She's an eighth grader right now and she's jumping 8 feet, 6 inches.''
Other Kanawha Valley single winners Saturday:
So what was Jackie Zuliani, coach of No. 1-ranked Buckhannon-Upshur, doing at Laidley Field Saturday afternoon?
Zuliani didn't have a team to direct. Her only two athletes in the meet - weight throwers Mackenzie Leigh and Megan Wilfong - competed Friday night in the girls AAA division.
"I'm just enjoying the meet with no pressure,'' Zuliani said, "and enjoying the sport without having to worry about kids.''
The Bucs didn't bring a full squad to the Gazette Relays, Zuliani said, because many were involved in academic pursuits, one in California and several at the State Capitol, including nine-time state champion Emily Godwin. The rumor going around Laidley Friday night was that the school was holding its prom, but that was untrue.
"It's unfortunate,'' Zuliani said of missing the Relays. "It just didn't work out for us this year. We wish we could have been here to compete. It's like a pre-state meet and you get to see some teams we don't get to see that often, like Jefferson.''
Zuliani wasn't sure if the absence will turn into a disadvantage for B-U. When the Bucs competed in the Gazette Relays in 2010 and '11, they turned around and won state titles three weeks later. They missed the Relays last year and finished second to Morgantown in the state meet.
"We'll have to see,'' Zuliani said. "I hope it's not a disadvantage. The part I hated was that we could have used another meet to experiment with some things, to shift around. We have our conference meet this week, then the regionals. So maybe it might be [a disadvantage] in the long run. Hopefully, taking the weekend off won't hurt anybody.''

Everything was nice and clean.We were "upgraded" to a bigger room and chared the bathroom with Patrick. To come to Patrick:He is a nice guy and nows nearly everything, especially about the american government. He told us where to go and what to do in washington and also where we have to be careful. Happily we could store our luggage at the house and even take a shower the day we returned home. In the end Patrick was a really great host. We would book the room again.
Vielen Dank für den tollen Aufenthalt!
Patrick hat sich in allen Belangen wie ein Vater um uns gekümmert.
Die Wohngegend ist schön, sicher, sehr ruhig und nicht weit von der Metro entfernt.
Supermärkte sind auch in der Nähe.
Wir können die Unterkunft also uneingeschränkt empfehlen!
I had a really great time at Jasmim's place. Really nice neighborhood surrounded with nature. I had a nice room-upgrade. i slept perfect. thanks for letting me stay there. had great talks with Patrick and the others that stayed there. Patrick was very friendly and welcoming and cooked lovely. i would definitely recommend it to others.
Sehr nette Gastgeber,das Zimmer klein und fein,sehr sauber,Bad direkt gegenüber.Sehr schöne Wohngegend.
Erhielt vorab diverse nützliche und praktische Hinweise.
Komme gern wieder und werde die Unterkunft weiterempfehlen.Herzliches Dankeschön an die netten Gastgeber,Jasmim and Patrick
Nice and clean room,20min walk to the Metro,which brings you in 10 min downtown. 10 min walk to the next supermarket. But the best was our host Pat. He even cooked for us a real feast and shared his recepies with us. Thanks a lot for the wonderful evening. Big recommandation for this room in Washington
Appartement très bien tenu et confortable.
Merci à Jaz pour toutes ses explications et à Patrick pour l'accueil.
Patrick and his wife Isabelle were such warmhearted, friendly and caring hosts. We truely enjoyed our stay in Takoma park!
Both were two real professionals and our room was nicely equipped and had everything from wifi to washing abilities.
Thank you Patrick for all your helpful tips and interesting talks. :-)
We really recommand this place!
We stayed at Adam Morgan and here in Takoma. We don't have a good stay in Takoma! It was nessesary to leave the house. It was not clean and there were messy.
Adam Morgan was a nice and clean place and the whole family moved there to.
Perfect apartment to stay some days and do your sightseeing trips from there!
I walked from the place to the Takoma train station and it took me about 15 min, from there then to Union Station and then starting sightseeing.
My room, bathroom and kitchen were clean and the place is very quite to relax from the day.

How many kicks to the groin can one team take? This team has been so close but can't close on the road. So frustrating.
If we can't win on the road, how are we expected to win ANYTHING in the BIGXII Tournament, or the NCAA Tournament, or the NIT? We can't just disassemble Hilton and take it with us wherever we go.
Let's get our **** together!
Cyclones | Vikings | Royals | Red Wings
I can no longer have any kids because I have been kicked in the balls so many times watching ISU over the years. There seriously can't be any other school in the country that routinely gets kicked in the nuts as much as ISU at Men's basketball and Football.
The end of this game reminded that, yes, God does hate Iowa State.
"The fact that anybody can say anything does not mean that anything anybody says is worth hearing"
i couldnt imagine being a iowa fan
these losses are bad enough
they take it to another level in blowing games
Stomach? Mine are in my throat.

I think we need to start having a four hour cool down time where new threads aren't allowed to be made... We get half a dozen meltdown threads every time.
So much in that game that makes you shake your head and wonder why? Don't even know where to start.
I've come to now expect nut shots like these.

Usually things even out and this team is due for a break or two late in games the rest of the way.
Can a mod put the 3 *** at the end please. I'm too depressed to see how to edit thread titles.
I'm only 24 but for you older Cyclones I have a question. Does it get easier over the years or do I just need to get used to this?
Let's just go on a ******* tear and win out. That should be the goal of this team: win every ******* game. Don't stop until you get beat, and hope it never happens. They've got the ability. JUST DO IT.
Cursed. I don't know what the curse is or how we got it in the first place, but cursed.

"Orange is the new Black" star Jackie Cruz has signed a record deal with music publishing powerhouse BMI.
The Dominican-American actress, who plays Flaca on the hit Netflix prison comedy, has signed with the same company which represents Rihanna and Pink.
She tells OKMagazine, "I'm excited to have my music overseen by BMI. They're an amazing music family to be part of, as they've been the parents to many legends that I look up to."
Cruz, who is planning to record in both English and Spanish, is no stranger to the music scene. She began her career as part of a girl group managed by will.i.am.
As a solo artist, she found success with her 2010 track "Your Love."

In response to HOTBLITZ's comment:
And don't say B's are way bigger and will be too physical for them. That's exactly what the kings tried.. And before you go saying well Boston is bigger remember on average LA is the biggest team in the Nhl.
bruins normally have 10 plus guys with double goal totals. every team tries to out hit out tough the bruins. Chicago is a skill team. I respect them. But they dont have any advantage over us. The bruins have obvious advantages over the hawks.
Chicago has far more skill then BOston. Simply put. There's no if ands or buts around it.. Ask any neutral team fan.

Cleveland, OH (Sports Network) - Multiple errors led to the game's only run
and Zach McAllister pitched a gem as the Cleveland Indians shut out the
Oakland Athletics, 1-0, in a pitcher's duel from Progressive Field.
Carlos Santana led off the decisive fifth inning with a grounder to first
base, which was muffed by Brandon Moss. The ball scooted toward second base
and was picked up by Eric Sogard, whose errant throw to the pitcher covering
first allowed Santana to advance to second. Mike Aviles singled Santana to
third two batters later, and Yan Gomes plated Santana with a sacrifice fly to
deep center field.
McAllister (3-3) went 7 2/3 innings, allowing just five hits and a walk while
striking out four. Chris Perez surrendered a one-out single to Yoenis Cespedes
in the ninth but got out of it unscathed for his fourth save of the season.
A's starter Tommy Milone (3-4) was terrific as well. He was charged with just
one unearned run and five hits over seven innings of work despite the loss.

Bruteforcing directories and files names on Webapplication servers using DirBuster1
During Web Application Pentest finding the Sensitive directories files and folders is always a quite tough work.
what is DirBuster
DirBuster is a multi threaded java application designed to brute force directories and files names on web/application servers. Often is the case now of what looks like a web server in a state of default installation is actually not, and has pages and applications hidden within. DirBuster attempts to find these.
now i will be showing how to use Dirbuster to find sensitive directories and files in a web application , for the demo i will be using Mutillidae: A Deliberately Vulnerable Set Of PHP Scripts That Implement The OWASP Top 10.
- cd /pentest/web/dirbuster
- [email protected]:/pentest/web/dirbuster# java -jar DirBuster-0.12.jar -u http://192.168.0.103/mutillidae/
now browse and select the directory bruteforce lists ex: directory-list-1.0.txt.
now run the start button u will see Dirbuster will start bruteforcing the dir and files.
see the results it has found /mutillidae/passwords/accounts.txt

Nice!I deserve you some rep.
Swiftfall Island
A recently discovered island, Swiftfall is a paradise (or hell, depending on your view point) for adventurers. With very few settlements, and lots of exotic dangers, there is great fortune to be made, incredible discoveries to be found, and violent, disturbing death just around the corner.
There are three major settlements in Swiftfall, and two lesser ones. Tranquil Cove is the largest, and aptly named. With no major forests or jungles near by, and gentle waters, this is the port of choice. The majority of trade is done here.
Rockidge is the next largest. Initially started as a supply point for the lighthouse, it grew into a modest sized port when valuable resources were discovered in the forest to the north. The natives on the rive flowing out of the mountains also provide a source of trade goods.
Turtle Point is the next in size. Turtles love the beaches around this port, hence the name. It was quickly discovered however that killing the turtles was a bad idea. Turtle Point is the shadier of the three ports.
There are two small settlements, Koruin and Luthin.
Almost nothing is known of the small island to the Northwest. The name of Death's Straight is well earned, as any ship that enters or is still there during nightfall disappears. The island itself appears to be a blackened wasteland that radiates death magic. All attempts to approach the island other than the staight has failed, the ship pulverized against the jagged rocks that surround it. The tower on the edge of the mountains seems to be occupied, as lights can be seen there at night. No contact has ever been made with the occupants though, and the few explorers that have visited the area report no apparent entry point.
The Forbidden Sea is precisely that, forbidden. Any ship that dares enter it is destroyed. Ships that enter the sea are drawn into the center by some unknown force, where they disappear. As ships approach the sea, a sense of wrongness and unease begins to build.
Not much is known about the ruins near the Forbidden Sea. Many exploration companies have been sent, and precious few return.
Game Info:
Much has been left vague or unsaid for a reason. This is more of a base-point than a fully fleshed out campaign. The death island is saturated with death magic, and is filled with undead, and perhaps other evil monsters. The sea monster could be just a regular monster, or it could be an other-worldly creature that's been bound to the center. The ruins are the remnants of a more advanced civilization of the remaining natives. They were destroyed in battle, initial against each other, with the final blow being struck by the sea monster and its minions.
Edit: oh ick, that is way to small for the image. I'll get a new one up in a little bit.

After trying (and failing) to use the Zimbra Web Inferface with these Windows 98 PCs, I am out of ideas. I have put security down to its lowest level and it still fails. When I go to http://www.evolutionconsultancy.com/zimbra/, I get the silver background but no login box.
At the bottom left hand corner of the page, it says 'Done, but with errors on page'. I have opened this up and the errors I get are:
Line: 255
Error: Object doesn't support this property of method
Line: 1432
Error: 'ZmMsg' is undefined
Line: 4896
Error: 'i18nMsg's is undefined
Any ideas? Has anyone had any success with IE and Zimbra?

Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about multiple myeloma.
Q: What is multiple myeloma?
A: Multiple myeloma is a kind of cancer that begins in plasma cells, a type of white blood cell. These cells make proteins called antibodies (immunoglobulins) to help the body fight infection. When plasma cells grow out of control, they build up either in the bone marrow or in organs. The tumors that are formed can destroy normal bone tissue. This can cause bone pain and sometimes fractures. The tumors can also cause large amounts of calcium to leave the bones and enter the blood, which can also cause problems, such as confusion, pain, and kidney failure.
Cancerous plasma cells can also crowd the bone marrow, preventing the healthy cells from working normally. That means people with multiple myeloma may not make enough white and red blood cells. They may also have fewer platelets, which are needed for clotting blood. Plus, since the plasma cells help the body fight disease, if a group of them is cancerous, the body is not as able to fight infection. People with multiple myeloma are at greater risk of getting infections.
Cancerous plasma cells can also make large numbers of antibodies, which can travel through the blood and damage organs, such as the kidneys.
Q: Who gets multiple myeloma?
A: Most people who get multiple myeloma are 65 or older. It is rarely seen in people younger than age 35. More men get it than women, and more African-American people get it than white people. Multiple myeloma is a relatively uncommon cancer. Doctors are not sure why one person gets it and another one does not.
Q: What are the risk factors for multiple myeloma?
A: Certain factors can make 1 person more likely to get multiple myeloma than another person. These are called risk factors. Some risk factors have been identified, but these only slightly raise a person's risk of getting the disease. Doctors have identified some risk factors for multiple myeloma, but they are not sure how much a part these play in someone getting the disease. Here are some things that may increase the risk for multiple myeloma:
Age. Less than 1% of cases are diagnosed in people younger than age 35.
Gender. Men are slightly more likely to develop multiple myeloma.
Race. African-Americans are more likely to have this cancer.
Exposure to radiation. This accounts for a small number of cases.
Family history. Having a sibling or parent who has it may increase your risk.
Exposure to chemicals. Your risk may increase if you work with certain substances, such as petroleum products.
Certain health conditions. Being overweight or obese may increase your risk.
Certain plasma cell diseases. These include solitary plasmacytoma and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). These disorders are considered "precursors" to myeloma and may or may not evolve into multiple myeloma.
Q: What are the symptoms of multiple myeloma?
A: A person's symptoms depend on how advanced the cancer is. Some people with early multiple myeloma have no symptoms. Instead, it is found during routine blood or urine tests. People may feel pain in their bones, often in their back or ribs. Some people may get broken bones since multiple myeloma causes the bones to weaken. Other people feel tired and weak, they may have more infections than usual, and they may lose weight or have other problems. Some people may develop evidence of kidney failure. These symptoms do not mean that a person definitely has multiple myeloma. Other things could be causing them. People should talk with their doctor if they are having any of these symptoms.
Q: How is multiple myeloma diagnosed?
A: The doctor asks questions about a person's symptoms, medical history, family history, and history of exposures. The doctor also does a physical exam to check for signs of the cancer. The doctor may order many of these tests to help make the diagnosis:
Blood tests
Urine tests
Computerized tomography (CT scan)
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI scan)
Positron emission tomography (PET scan)
Biopsy, if the tumor is in soft tissue
Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy
Q: Should everyone get a second opinion for multiple myeloma?
A: Many people with cancer get a second opinion from another doctor. There are many reasons to get one. Here are some of those reasons:
Not feeling comfortable with the treatment decision
Being diagnosed with a rare type of cancer
Having several options for how to treat the cancer
Not being able to see a cancer expert
Many people have a hard time deciding which treatment to have. It may help to have a second doctor review the diagnosis and treatment options before starting treatment. It is important to remember that in most cases, a short delay in treatment will not lower the chance that it will work. Some health insurance companies even require that a person with cancer seek a second opinion, and many other companies will pay for a second opinion if asked.
Q: How can someone get a second opinion for multiple myeloma?
A: There are many ways to get a second opinion.
Ask a primary care doctor. He or she may be able to suggest a specialist. This may be a surgeon, medical oncologist, or radiation oncologist. Sometimes these doctors work together at cancer centers or hospitals. Never be afraid to ask for a second opinion.
Call the National Cancer Institute's Cancer Information Service. The number is 800-4-CANCER (800-422-6237). They have information about treatment facilities. These include cancer centers and other programs supported by the National Cancer Institute.
Seek other options. Check with a local medical society, a nearby hospital or medical school, or a support group to get the names of doctors who can give you a second opinion. Or ask other people who've had cancer for their recommendations.
Q: How is multiple myeloma treated?
A: Some people with early (often called "smoldering") multiple myeloma may not need treatment right away. Their disease is closely monitored, and treatment is started if they have symptoms or if there are signs that the disease is progressing. Treatment for multiple myeloma is mainly systemic. These kinds of treatments kill or control cancer cells all through the body. Doctors almost always use chemotherapy or other drugs to treat people with multiple myeloma. They may also use bone marrow transplants or peripheral blood stem cell transplants.
Local treatments fight cancer cells in one area. Radiation is an example. Doctors use it to control bone pain or prevent breaks.
Q: What's new in multiple myeloma research?
A: Cancer research should give you hope. Doctors and researchers around the world are learning more about what causes multiple myeloma, and are looking for and studying ways to prevent it. They are also finding better ways to detect and treat this cancer.
Studies are being done to improve survival in people with multiple myeloma who are treated with high-dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplants.
Researchers have found that cells in the bone marrow known as stromal cells promote the growth of multiple myeloma. Drugs such as thalidomide and lenalidomide can prevent this as well as kill myeloma cells. These drugs are now often part of the treatment for multiple myeloma. Other new types of drugs are being studied as well.
Q: What should I know about clinical trials for multiple myeloma?
A: Clinical trials are studies of new kinds of cancer treatments. Doctors use clinical trials to learn how well new treatments work and what their side effects are. Promising treatments are ones that work better or have fewer side effects than the current treatments. People who participate in these studies get to use treatments before the FDA approves them. People who join trials also help researchers learn more about cancer and help future people with cancer.

Out of Stock
Item # LTM0100
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Headlights in stock than that.View Similar Products
Light & Motion Seca 750 Light $0.00
750 lumens is a lot of light coming from a bicycle. It's not the 1700 lumens that you get from some lights or from the landing lights on commercial airliners, but 750 lumens is a lot of light nevertheless. For instance, it's plenty adequate for an evening of ripping singletrack. Of course, the icing on the cake is the 750's ultra-light weight.
Something that often escapes conversations about light power is light quality. Different lights can emit light throughout a portion of the color spectrum–sometimes too blue, green-hazed, or yellowish. In practical human terms, our eyes are built for natural light, and Light & Motion strives to make equipment that produces light as closely matched as possible to the color of natural mid-day sunlight. Light & Motion relies on powerful Cree XPG emitters for their inherently pure white light and super-efficient operation.
All of this power and light quality would be lost without a well crafted reflector to shape the beam. For the Seca 750, Light & Motion's bi-conic reflector creates a broader center spot that shoots straight down the trail, allowing you to see what's coming, even at speed. This broader center spot transitions softly into very even fill light that lets you see the wooly stuff at the edge of the trail and all of the roots and rocks below your front tire as well. You won't be spotlighting raccoons up in the trees either. The reflector shapes the light and directs it all where you want and need it. For those commuting or using this light on the road, you can be sure that you will be seen.
The Seca 750 comes with a tool-free handlebar mount that will work on just about any bar diameter or shape as well as on the included helmet mount. The mounting arrangement has been redesigned to rotate the lamp forward on the bars. Perhaps the greatest benefit of this new shape is that the light will sit further towards the front of your head when you're using the helmet mount.
The Seca 750 comes with their 2-cell lithium-ion battery pack, and will run on full power for 2 hours. It will run it on medium for 4 hours, and the low setting will stretch out to a 8 hours of run-time. When the battery is waning, the included Mini-L Smart Charger will get it fully recharged in 2.5 hours. Two operational modes allow flexibility. Cruise mode allows you to cycle through high, medium, low, and flash for safety. Race mode is more streamlined; a two second push to turn it on will allow you to have high and low only. Use low for climbing and high for descending and hammering down.
The Light & Motion Seca 750 comes with a 50in power cord that allows you the freedom to put the battery in a variety of locations. With the handlebar mount, hang it on the top or down tube. Use it on your helmet and stuff the battery in a jersey pocket or a backpack.

Mediocre Light for Nighttime Singletrack
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've used this for 5 group night rides and would advise anyone riding for 1.5 hrs or more to get a light with a longer lasting battery. Contrary to what the description says in the first paragraph: "For instance, it's plenty adequate for an evening of ripping singletrack." Its NOT adequate for more than +/-1 hour of ripping singletrack in a group ride situation. Strava showed 1':55" of elapsed time and 1:31 of moving time. The light sputtered out before the ride was done. I think its typical for mountain bike rides to have breaks and regroups, so one would expect a 1.5 hr ride to have a longer total elapsed time. The problem is you really need the full power/ 750 lumens for the whole ride and this does not have the battery power to sustain that.

2012 may be over, but don't clean out your closet just yet! Several of this year's trends are going to carry you right into next year. And they're going to be big. From 90's nostalgia to nautical jewelry, you'll be ahead of the curve for 2013.
tribal print two-fer dress, studded pumps, high-waisted skinny jeans, embellished chain link bracelet, striped polka dot mixed blouse
1. Leather: We know leather will always be around in shoe, purse, and jacket form, but this year, we've been loving all the leather in unusual places. Whether it's used as an accent on a flirty dress or a pair of comfy leggings, we're excited that leather has gone from the everyday to the unexpected.
2. Pointy toe shoes: As much as we love platforms, we're excited pointy toe shoes are here to stay. Whether you love flats or heels, the sleek line of a pointed toe will help elongate your legs and add an extra dose of sophistication to your outfit.
3. High-waisted pants: We have a soft spot for all things 90s, so we're pretty excited high-waisted jeans are going to stick around for a while. Plus, the retro cut is both flattering and fuss-free.
4. Chain Link: Chances are, most of the jewelry you own sits on a chain. But chains are no longer just for holding charms. Chain link jewelry has taken center stage as a statement piece all of its own. From necklaces to belts to bold prints, we're glad this glamorous trend won't be going anywhere soon.
5. Mixed Prints: Bold prints are perfect for making a statement, but mixed prints? Even better. We've been loving pairing unexpected pieces together this year, and we're expecting to go even bigger, brighter, and bolder in 2013.
What was your favorite trend of 2012?

NORFOLK, Va. (AP) - A former death row inmate in Virginia whose conviction was overturned on accusations of prosecutorial misconduct is petitioning a judge for his immediate release.
Lawyers for Justin Wolfe filed the motion Friday in federal court in Norfolk. They argue that Virginia prosecutors have waited too long to retry Wolfe on charges that he orchestrated a murder for hire as part of his drug-dealing enterprise.
Wolfe was convicted in 2002 and sent to death row. But a federal judge overturned the conviction, ruling that Prince William County prosecutors hid evidence that would have undermined their case.
The judge gave state prosecutors 120 days to either retry Wolfe or grant his unconditional release. Wolfe's lawyers say that time is up.
Wolfe's retrial is currently scheduled to begin in January.

Edit: As I've previously stated, I think it is best for all parties involved if the Big XII network came about and all schools had an equal stake. But Austin didn't want it.
This is key. When the Big XII was at the edge of falling off the cliff (already lost Colorado and Nebraska with more defections reported), UT snatched that opportunity to take advantage of its bretheren and held the Big XII hostage to its very existence (UT at the time was flirting with the Pac 10).
That is not doing well within the system, that is being a bully.

ATLANTA - A new Survey-USA poll commissioned by 11Alive News shows one out of three Georgia voters surveyed have still not made up their minds about the Charter School Amendment on next week's ballot.
When asked how certain they were about the amendment, 38 percent said they would vote 'Yes', 29 percent said 'No' and 33 percent were 'Uncertain'.
RELATED | Read the 11Alive News-Survey USA poll on the charter school amendment
Just a few months ago some polls showed almost two to one support to create a new state Charter School Commission, but this latest poll suggests a shifting of opinion, with some voters changing their minds and many still not sure how to vote.
Part of the reason could be the bipartisan nature of the battle with Democrats and Republicans as well as liberals and conservatives on both sides.
Most on both sides support the basic concept of charter schools.
But they differ over who should approve them, local school boards or a state commission with the power to overrule those local boards.
"Our people have been misled, deceived, and plain out lied to about what this amendment is really about," Rev. Timothy McDonald claimed Monday.
He joined other members of Atlanta's Concerned Black Clergy to condemn the amendment and a power grab.
"It's really about state control of charter schools," McDonald added.
A short time later a strange coalition of some tea party members, the NAACP, the State Legislative Black Caucus and the Georgia PTA joined together at the State Capitol to voice their opposition.
The same kind of diversity can be found among supporters, like African American conservative Rich Thompson.
"This amendment is about providing more control to parents," he told 11Alive.
"It doesn't give the government more power," Thompson claimed.
Interestingly, the new 11Alive Survey-USA poll shows the one third undecided is pretty consistent across the board, regardless of racial, political or educational differences.
Meanwhile, yet another lawsuit has been filed over the controversial amendment.
Two earlier ones failed to keep state and local education officials from campaigning against it.
The latest, filed Monday by Rev. Tim McDonald and Dalton teacher Beverly Hedges, challenges the amendment's preamble wording on the ballot as misleading.
They want a court to block enforcement of the state charter school commission if voters approve the measure.

DALE CITY, Va. (WUSA9) -- A driver has been charged after the tractor-trailer he was driving overturned onto a Jersey wall on Interstate 95 in Prince William County on Wednesday morning.
According to Virginia State Police, the accident happened at 10:23 a.m. in the southbound lanes of Interstate 95 at the 156 mile marker. Police say the tractor-trailer rear-ended a highway crash-cushion truck, which was protecting a street sweeper cleaning along the right shoulder of I-95. The impact of the crash caused the tractor-trailer to overturn across the Jersey wall.
Police say the trailer, which is loaded with caulking and other industrial adhesives, ruptured during the crash.
The driver, 48-year-old Dean A. Brames of
Palm Bay, Fla., was transported to Potomac Hospital for treatment of minor
injuries, say police. They say he was later released.
Brames has been charged with reckless driving.
State police say by 3:50 p.m., the tractor-trailer crash was cleared and all I-95 southbound lanes were reopened.

Taking the grandkids camping . . . sort of
(Page 3 of 3)
The next night, when we were gathered by the fire, they asked for another story, a "real" campfire story. "See that star up there next to the moon?" I said. "It's actually a spaceship, and tonight, when you're sleeping, it will land here next to our tents. Tiny aliens with enormous heads will lift the flap of your tent and carry you off to their planet, which happens to be made of ice cream."
The grandkids looked giddy with excitement and fear. My work was done.

Early Spring Peek at the September 8The Iowa Game
As I usually do, I looked at Hawkeye Spring Practice notes with as much interest as I do our own. After all, not only did I grow up forty miles from Iowa City, spending many a Saturday listening to Iowa games on the radio with my dad, I like to know what well be facing when one particular Saturday of the ensuing Fall rolls around.
In this case, what I found was both a pleasant and a dismaying surprise.
Just a hint. The Hawks are lucky the game is in Iowa City this year. On the other hand, they are going to be nasty
when 2013 rolls around. Thank goodness that game willor should bein Ames.
Oh, its not as if Iowa is without talent. James Vandenberg is a good quarterback, and Keenan Davis should follow in the footsteps of his predecessors quite nicely. C.J. Fiedorowicz is doubtless poised to blossom as well. The problem (for them) is that the rest of the team is very, very young and inexperienced. Especially the offensive linewhich makes everything else go.
All right, so James Ferentz is an anchor to build around, and you probably couldnt ask for better in a Hawkeye center. Smart, savvy, talented and a leader. And Vince Tobin was thrown into the fire a year ago due to injuries. Matter of fact, due to those injuries, a bunch of guys got some experiencejust like Cyclone offensive linemen did. Oh, Im not saying that these guys are without talent, not hardlyobviously Ferentz knows his stuffbut Im thinking that with new starters in at least three positions (assuming no one beats out Tobin), its an awful lot to ask these guys to gel in their second game of the season.
Especially facing what should be one of the strengths of this Cyclone team.
And then there is the Hawkeye defense, which aside from Alvis, Bigach, Morris, Kirksey and Hyde is just as green. Or moresoalbeit, again, not without talent. Though those five do make a nice core to build around. Again, the second game of the season seems a bit much for them to gel.
Which admittedly, might be the same both for the Cyclone offensive line
and the overall Iowa State offensethough I still think Courtney Messinghams bunch has an edge there.
Where Coach Paul Rhoads clearly has an advantage, a group that one game should be plenty of workup, is with Wally Burnhams boys. Assuming certain little details, of course, such as Rosey Maggitts returnand that Jansen Watson slides in as seamlessly as Jacques Washington did a year ago. Otherwise, this defense, which could have seven senior starters, will be loaded for bear. Or Hawk.
Hawkeye Offensive Line versus Cyclone Defensive Line
Ferentz is now reaping the harvest of a recruiting gamble several years ago, where rather than combing the country for elite talent, he simply signed a handful of rawboned, athletic Iowa boys. The advantage to doing so that you save money on travel expenses and scholarship costs. Well, now is when we begin to see how well that panned out for him, for several of those guys are now in the two deep. Indeed, Brett Van Sloten and Conor Boffeli are currently listed as starters. The more highly touted Ohioan Andrew Donnal isnt. Still, over the next couple of years, well see whether any of these unheralded Iowa boys performs at a Riley Rieff or Bryan Bulaga level.
The problem for these guys, however, is that theyll be facing a bunch that isnt green. Well, the one that is, is probably also the most talented. Brett Van Sloten and Nolan MacMillan, meet David Irving. The rest of your mates just have to deal with a passel of seasoned juniors and seniorsand whatever underclassmen are good enough to work their way into that mix. Tobin, Ferentz, and Boffeli? Be ready to take the next day off, because Shane Burnham has half a dozen guys who are ready and willing to wear you down. Yo, Brandon Sherff, over there on the edge? Pray that you (or if Donnal beats you out) are only facing Willie Scott, who is both experienced and really quickbecause a healthy Rosey Magitt is even better.
Edge: ISU
Hawkeye Backs versus Cyclone Linebackers
Oh, what time hath wrought. Had Marcus Coker still been here, this would have been a tough matchup. He isnt. The rest of the returnees are nothing more than a collection of fairly pedestrian backs. The only problem being, Kirk Ferentz has made a living running pedestrian backs behind his big zone blockers over the last decade. They might not do much else, but they get first downs. Deandre Johnson, the one guy with a little wiggle and burst, has been hampered by injuries. Jordan Canzeri could be a poor mans Alexander Robinson, and Damon Bullock wants to be a wide receiver.
Okay, so the other problem is that Greg Garmon will be coming into the fold. While Barkley Hill might be more of the same above, Garmon decidedly isnt. The one redeeming feature here is the fact that it will still be only his second college gameand I dont expect him to be another Herschel Walker.
On the other hand, A.J. Klein and Jake Knott may well be the best pair of linebackers on the field at the same time for ISU. Ever. Hawk fans can relate to this. Plus, they have a solid crew both in front and behind them, plus plenty of help from their fellow linebackers and nickel backs.
Edge: ISU
Hawkeye Receivers versus Cyclone Secondary
I think that Keenan Davis should be a worthy heir to the recent Hawkeye tradition of senior receivers. The only question is, where does he get any help from? Yes, Fiedorowicz is due to burst out (hmmI wonder if Wally might cover him with Irving in some sets?). Kevonte Martin-Manley has nice hands. Aside from Donnie Shumpert, it appears that any other help will come from redshirts and incoming freshmen. Jacob Hiller and Cameron Wilson perhaps foremost among them.
The Cyclone secondary, on the other hand, has plenty of experience. Two solid starters return in Jeremy Reeves and Jacques Washington. Durell Givens saw quite a bit of action. The only reason Jansen Watson didnt see more snaps from scrimmage was that he was playing behind one of the best Cyclone corners ever. And frankly, anyone (like athletic Jared Brackins, speedy Ken Lynn or JUCO Clifford Stokes, among others) who beats them out is only going to do so because they are even better than those two are. The unit is not without weaknesses, but the Cyclones haven talent, experience and depth here.
Edge: ISU
Cyclone Special Teams versus Hawkeye Special Teams
Ooh, this ones a fun one, since Iowa is missing a punter, and ISU a placekicker. Iowa has a decent placekicker in Mike Meyer returning, while ISU has a very good punter in Kirby Vanderkamp. I cant guess how good the likes of Johnny Mullings, Cole Netten or Connor Kornbrath will prove to be, though Id have to say that generally an edge in punters equated to an advantage in field position. Should it prove that way.
No, the decisive edge here comes in another area, the return game. ISU consistently had good returns, and coverage as well. Iowa had some acknowledged problems. That makes the defining difference.
Edge: ISU
Cyclone Offensive Line versus Hawkeye Defensive Line
If I were pairing up the UI and ISU offensive lines, it would be pretty easy. Tobin and Ferentz equate to Ethan Tuftee and Tom Farniok as returning starters, but then Brayden Burris is a two year starter as well. And Carter Bykowski, Kyle Lichtenberg and Jacob Gannon also have starts under their belts.
Huh. That accounts for all of the likely projected starters. Isnt that interesting?
Unfortunately, what I am matching up is instead the Hawkeye defensive line, which is also a traditional strength in Iowa City. Oh, wait, did I say unfortunately? Because the Hawk defensive line was also hit hard by graduation lossessome of them leftovers from two years ago. If Steve Bigach and Dominic Alvis are the two returning starters, they are also the only two players returning with any significant playing time. Carl Davis, who is also missing the Spring, got in some plays, but also struggled to control his weight. Well see how that battle concluded.
The short story being that, though the Hawkeyes are beginning to have some talented players filter in, it will doubtless also take this unit time to not only gel, but mature. I honestly dont know how their lineup will shake out, but Darian Cooper, Jaleel Johnson and Faith Ekaktie are some talented playersand they arent the only ones. In the long run, even in ensuing seasons, this will be a group to respect.
Not in the second game of the season, however.
Edge: ISU
Cyclone Backs versus Hawkeye Linebackers
Here is an interesting matchup, though I am hesitant to add Shontrelle Johnson to the mix. ISU has a very nice group of running backs, with talent and experience, and a couple of interesting newcomers. James White is solid and tough, and can break a long one at any time. I dont think that Iowas defense wants to be trying to stop Jeff Woody in the fourth quarter. Nealy and (hopefully) Johnson add elusiveness.
At the same time, the Iowa linebackers are probably the most seasoned unit on their team. James Morris has started for a couple of years, and I really like Christian Kirkseys pursuit, athleticism and tacklingI hope that one day C.J. Morgan is as good. Even better, from a Hawkeye perspective, with last seasons injuries, quite a few players got a chance to gain some experience. This should be a good, solid unit, with Kirksey adding that splash of flair. Not as good as ISUs linebackers, of course, but still decent. Matter of fact, with Johnson a question, and both Standard and Nealy still unproven, the Hawks snag a break.
Edge: UI
Cyclone Receivers versus Hawkeye Secondary
Yknow, matching Keenan Davis against the Cyclone returnees would be an interesting exercise as well, but thats not the way I decided to work this. In this case, Josh Lenz, Aaron Horne, Albert Gary, Jarvis West and Chris Young make for a solid returning core to build around, at worst.
Forgive me for not knowing exactly how to untangle the other side of the equation. Micah Hyde is a good corner, and Tanner Miller is a good athlete with plenty of experience. Much like the ISU secondary, plenty of athletes around them are read to step up. Shoot, maybe I should do an analysis of unit versus unit! After all, part of the reason that someone like B.J. Lowery didnt play more was because he was blocked by one of the better corners in UI history. Sound familiar? Nico Law was a talented recruit who saw time on special teams. Again, sound familiar? Then there are other young talented guys, like Jordan Lomax and Torrey Campbell awaiting their turn. Plus some talented signees joining in the fall. Like elsewhere, this is going to be a very strong unit for the Hawkeyes down the road.
The problem for this particular matchup is, the Cyclone offense has a somewhat better returning core. That being of mostly seniors, who are reading to go now. Plus, much as with the Hawks, some talented redshirts and signees are about to join those guys as well. Quenton Bundrage and JaQuarius Daniels especially may prove to be tough matchups. Matter of fact, Id guess that the latter might well play Keenan Davis for the scout team when that week of practice rolls around.
Oh, if I dont forget the tight endsISU may not have a Fiedorowicz, but Id guess that Hammerschmidt may be just as tough to tackle.
So, the problem for the Hawks is, as nasty, tough and salty as this group might prove to be (and ISUs as well), at only the second game of the season, the more seasoned group will have the advantage.
Edge: ISU
Cyclone Quarterbacks versus Hawkeye Quarterbacks
This ones the wildcard, isnt it? I think that James Vandenberg is a nice, workmanlike quarterback, with a good arm and plenty of experience. Hes poised for a good senior seasonif the rest of the team keeps up with him. The funny thing, though, is that I think that any of ISUs quarterbacks can be better than him. Its just a question of whether they will or not.
After all, Jared Barnett kept OSUs defense off balance with his running and passingand I dont expect the Hawk defense to be any better than that Cowboy unit at this stage. As far as Steele Jantz, perhaps the only way hell be out there is if he has matured and minimized the mistakes. In which case, watch out!
Edge: UI

Go Cyclones!
Iowa will win this game because it's at their home, and then they will think they are going to be national champions and end up with a losing season.
UI should win this game at home, but I think PR wants to bowl again, and this will be a very important part of that. I see a Cyclone victory. Depth and experience will bring this one our way. I would not be surprised to get up on them early and not let them get close.

UI is going to have trouble with their new coaches. New plays...ect. I'm glad we got this game early in the season though. I'm going to take ISU. I think we are just a much better team this year.

I wouldn't say we are a much better team.
Same level. Their house. Edge to them.
I really feel like we win this game. Honestly, I'll be surprised if we don't.

Jake McDounough vs Ferentz = great matchup!
i don't see the hoks even scoring a TD
My opinion is, like the overall season, ISU's fortunes will depend on its QB play. If they can get Jantz to limit the turnovers or Barnett to play like he did for most of the OSU game, ISU has a clear advantage. My thought (although I don't pay super close attention to them) is that iowa is decimated on the DL. Alvis is an OK player who is returning from a knee injury...similar to Maggitt. Davis and Bigach are not difference makers. Iowa has good LBs and I like Hyde at CB and Miller at S. But, their D lacks depth and talent. ISU should be able to pound the ball at them and break some runs with White, Nealy and hopefully Shontrelle. If iowa stacks the box, like I expect them to, then it depends on the QB making the intermediate to deep throws to keep them honest. WR screens and short passes aren't going to back them up.
On the other side of the ball, I think that we can always expect KF to have at least an average OL. They'll find a RB able to run the zone read. Vandenberg can be dangerous and their WRs are OK. I believe that ISU can slow them down, but they'll need a pass rush to do it. Knott, Klein and McDonough will make it tough on their run game.
I expect the game to be high scoring. IF ISU can get consistant play at QB, they should be able to win by 10-14. If they're throwing picks or having accuracy problems, they could lose.
If this game is within two scores, we may have issues. Seriously, we should dominate this game.
This is very important:
2014-15 KenPom AdjO (rating)
116.3 (11)
2015-16 KenPom AdjO (rating
120.7 (3)
Based on these breakdowns it almost looks like next year could be a defensive battle and won't come anywhere close to the 44-41 thriller we got last year.
We'll see. It's kind of exciting with both programs at about the same place: Young, inconsistent and adjusting to some new coaches. Will be a really interesting early-season test.

Iowa's talent level is way down. ISU has more talent across the board. I only see this being close if the ISU qb has a terrible day or ISU turns the ball over many times.
Even turning it over in the red zone last year ISU still won the game. Iowa loses about every difference maker they had. People talk about their linebackers who are average at best.
ISU should win this by two touchdowns.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not. Two touchdowns? In Iowa City? I love the idea despite it being slightly psychotic. Aclone's breakdown is fun to read despite it's obvious bias towards us. Here's a little more accurate breakdown of the position battles:
QB... Iowa obviously has the advantage here
RB... ISU obviously has the advantage here
OL... Iowa has a slight advantage here
TE.. Iowa obviously has an advantage here
WR.. A wash. I think we have more talent in the wings, but Iowa has two kids that are better than our returning experience so a wash until our freshmen step up
DT.. ISU has a slight advantage here
DE.. ISU has a slight advantage here. It would be bigger if Irving becomes a football player this fall. Iowa has nothing at DE
LB... ISU has a moderate advantage here. We're very good at two spots but weak at the 3rd. Iowa has one good backer and two average kids. We win that battle
CB... Iowa by a mile
S... Iowa obviously has the advantage here
As far as what's going to win this game? It's the line play. If Iowa can open up holes against our DL for their quick backs to get through, we'll be in trouble. Iowa had a horrible game plan last year in Ames. How they didn't pick us apart with McNutt and Davis is amazing. They thought they could run it down our throat all game and couldn't. Iowa's Oline is either going to be really good or really bad. If the Iowa kid and win a guard spot, they will have an advantage over ISU's dline.
Our weakest area going into 2012 is Oline (followed closely by defensive backfield). Fortunately for us, Iowa's dline should be the 2nd weakest one we face all year. If we can move them around and create traffic for their quick but undersized linebackers, ISU should have a lot of success on the ground. We have an advantage with our Oline over their Dline, and it will allow us to hit some big plays over the top in the passing game.
Iowa stays in it by utilizing their big TE and RB's in the passing game (the one weakness AK and Jake have is in coverage), but ISU should win this game unless we commit some untimely turnovers. It just won't be the "easy" 2 TD win some are praying for.

|Alliance native Rebekah Davis seeking Third District Congressional seat
By Russ Pankonin
The Imperial Republican
Alliance native Rebekah Davis wants to represent Nebraska's 3rd Congressional District in Washington, D.C.
Davis, 28, a Democrat, said Nebraska has just five voices in Congress and believes all five should be heard.
For the 3rd District, that means being an advocate for the needs of the state rather than a political party.
Davis shared her thoughts during a campaign stop in Imperial, Friday, Dec. 11.
She believes she can be the independent voice for what matters to 3rd District Nebraskans.
As a Democrat, she knows she's facing some tough odds. Nebraska's 3rd District hasn't sent a Democrat to Congress since 1958, she noted.
However, the 3rd District has a history of being supportive of woman candidates.
Rep. Virginia Smith of Chappell served the district for many years and was an effective voice for Nebraska, Davis said.
She feels it's important for the women's voice to be heard, as well.
When incumbent Rep. Adrian Smith, (R), along with Nebraska's other two Republican representatives, voted against the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act last January, Davis said she decided it was time to stand up for women and get in the race.
She said Smith's vote against the bill was a "slap in the face to women of Nebraska."
The bill ultimately passed, with the vote of just three Republicans, and was signed into law by President Obama.
The bill amended the Civil Rights Act of 1964 stating that the 180-day statute of limitations for filing an equal-pay lawsuit regarding pay discrimination resets with each new discriminatory paycheck.
The law was a direct answer to a U.S. Supreme Court decision holding that the statute of limitations for presenting an equal-pay lawsuit begins at the date the pay was agreed upon, not at the date of the most recent paycheck, as a lower court had ruled.
Davis said that provided the motivation to go ahead and run for the seat in 2010. "I just couldn't sit idly by while the women of Nebraska were not being represented," she said.
Independent Thinker
Davis said the district needs a representative that can think independently and be willing to buck their own party for the good of Nebraska.
Davis' stand as a pro-life candidate represents a direct conflict to the Democratic party.
However, her belief in the sanctity of life from beginning to end takes precedence over party views.
In the 3rd District, no one political party has enough majority to elect a candidate. As a result, she believes she can reach across partisan lines to achieve victory as people realize her goal is to represent Nebraska, not political parties.
Davis said everyone wants to talk about health care reform on her stops throughout the district.
She said health care issues will continue to be an issue for the 3rd District even after a reform bill passes.
Another key issue centers on the economy and what can be done to help create jobs for Nebraskans.
She believes wind energy and broadband internet expansion will play big roles in creating job opportunities for the future.
She said Nebraska needs to be on the forefront of wind energy development.
She places a high priority on creating green energy in Nebraska. The state has the fourth highest potential for wind energy development but is only 22nd in actual development.
This represents a big area for job creation.
She added faster broadband speeds will serve another facet for job growth by allowing tele-commuters to work and live in Nebraska while working remotely for their employers.
When asked about her stand on cap-and-trade issues, she said that's been a hot topic as well.
She says it could be workable if wind energy and other green energy development are part of the process.
Alliance Native
Davis grew up in Alliance as the youngest of four kids. Her parents are both retired from BN-SF Railroad.
After graduating from Alliance High School, she attended Indiana University, graduating in 1998 with degrees in French, Japanese and International Studies.
She then spent two years doing mission work in Southeast Asia and West Africa.
Upon returning, she enrolled in Yale University's School of Divinity, receiving her divinity degree three years later.
She trained in Omaha to become a chaplain and now lives in Alliance, serving hospitals throughout Nebraska, specializing in end-of-life care.
She said these experiences have all helped her to prepare for public service with a commitment to be a strong voice for the people of Nebraska.

As of late, it has definitely been a great time to be an investor in Amkor Technology, Inc. (AMKR) . The stock has moved higher by 27.8% in the past month, while it is also above its 20 Day SMA too. This combination of strong price performance and favorable technical, could suggest that the stock may be on the right path.
We certainly think that this might be the case, particularly if you consider AMKR's recent earnings estimate revision activity. From this look, the company's future is quite favorable; as AMKR has earned itself a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) , meaning that its recent run may continue for a bit longer, and that this isn't the top for the in-focus company.

Mississippi's only abortion clinic missed a Friday deadline to comply with a state law requiring each of its physicians to get hospital admitting privileges.
The state Health Department won't close the clinic immediately. The department will set an inspection later, and if it orders a shutdown, the clinic can appeal.
Diane Derzis is administrator of the clinic, Jackson Women's Health Organization. She says every Jackson-area hospital where the clinic applied for privileges said it doesn't want to deal with the pressure of being associated with abortion providers.
Republican Governor Phil Bryant signed the law in 2012, and he says his goal is to shut the clinic.
The clinic filed a lawsuit last summer, and a federal judge gave the facility time to try to comply with the law.

Does anyone out there have a good employee evaluation form that they use for the HVAC trade.
ie: technicians, installers and office personell
Thank You in advance
Do you have Excel? I have one you can try.
No I have never seen one. However I know what you are talking about.
I sit on the Board of Directors for a non-profit organization. It has a paid Exec.Director and several employees. And also I have been in this HVAC business for 40 years.
The employee evaluation is a very important and formal procedure in the non-profit organization. It is not like this for any HVAC company that I have been involved with.
Since this is your first time posting I am guessing that you are employed by some large corporation and you are involved with evaluating employees in general. Also you have one or two HVAC technicians that also work for this corporation. Is this correct?
If so the only I advice I can give you is that these guys are probably not used to being formally evaluated.
I think in a Contracting business the employees are on the firing line all the time. If someone is not toeing the mark it is evident very quickly. Any performance problems are dealt with more quickly and less formally.
