TORONTO - Madonna made two costly mistakes in Friday's OVAC Class 1A championship game and, despite an outstanding pitching performance by junior Luca Fuscardo, dropped a 2-1 decision to Bishop Donahue at the Knight Baseball Complex.
On the other hand, the Bishops, who went into the OVAC tournament as the top seed, made plays when they needed them and got a good pitching performance of its own from junior Hunter Kaschke.
It was the third straight OVAC championship for the Bishops.
"We got two runs," victorious coach Bob Kleeh said. "We didn't get many, but we had enough to get it done. We seem to play good up here, the last three years anyway. Whatever comes out, I wish we could do it all year. In this game, we played really well and we had to to beat a good team like Madonna. We made some good plays in key situations.
"That kid (Fuscardo) is a heck of a pitcher. For us to get two runs off of him is a lot of hard work."
The Bishops struck for both of their runs in the bottom of the fourth inning on a two-out double by Alex Riedel that brought home Joey Myers and Philip Smith.
Prior to the short-and-swift scoring strike by the Bishops, Fuscardo had mowed down 10 straight, nine of them on strikeouts. Fuscardo struck out the first eight Bishops who came to the plate.
However, it was a costly error by the lanky junior left-hander that set up the Bishop Donahue runs.
Myers rifled a single through the hole between shortstop and third base for the first Bishop Donahue hit of the game. Smith dribbled a swinging bunt to the right of the mound that Fuscardo fielded cleanly but he had to hurry his throw to first base and sailed the ball past first baseman Mike Rogers for a two-base error.
One out later, Riedel crushed a pitch to deep left center field that plated the two runs. Riedel attempted to stretch it into a triple and was thrown out at third base.
In the top of the fifth inning, Madonna got something going when second baseman Fargo Camerlango drew the only Blue Dons walk of the game. Senior Tory Fuscardo ripped a line drive up the right center-field alley. As the two Blue Dons raced around the base paths, there was a miscue that saw Camerlango get caught in a rundown between third base and home plate. He was tagged out trying to get home as Fuscardo, who was credited with a double, reached third base. However, the rally ended when Rogers hit a liner right at the left fielder for the third out.
"We never blame a coach or an individual player for one play that happens like that," said Madonna coach, T. J. Brancazio, whose team had beaten the Bishops in both meetings during the regular season. "There are a lot of other plays throughout the game, so one play generally doesn't beat you."
Kaschke was very effective as well. The junior right-hander scattered six hits, walked one and struck out two.
Madonna scored its lone run in the top of the sixth inning when Luca Fuscardo got a one-out single. He came around to score when the next batter, Will Bowser, crushed a 1-2 pitch to the wall over the right fielder's head for an RBI triple.
Bowser, was 3 for 3 adding two singles to his triple. Bowser has hit safely in his last eight at-bats.
Ironically, the same teams will meet Monday when Madonna plays host to the Class A Region 1, Section 1 tournament at Ed Bowman Field. Game time is 6:30 p.m.

Does anyone out there have any info on Hamilton frames built in the bay area during the late 80's - early 90's. They have 24 inch wheels and were built for time trials. I have one and I love it. I also have found 2 additional wheelsets taken from a deceased one on Craigslist awhile back. I have thoroughly scoured the internet but have come up entirely empty handed so far.
Any leads or info would be tremendously appreciated!!

JENKINS: Wood wins election but loses power
Deep in the Friday news obituary for Murray Galinson, a true All-Star in the San Diego political, business and philanthropic lineup, I was struck by an obscure sliver of his biography.
In his native Minnesota, young Galinson, a Democrat, wanted to serve on a city board, but a strictly partisan Republican mayor denied his request. Politicized by the petty rejection, Galinson went on to win a council seat and work with a new Democratic majority to deny the mayor his appointment powers.
Ring a North County bell?
In Oceanside, Mayor Jim Wood is still threatening a lawsuit now that the council majority — Gary Felien, Jerry Kern, Jack Feller — has stripped Wood of the customary power to make appointments, specifically appointing himself to the city's coveted seat on SANDAG, the regional planning agency.
As it happens, Oceanside has been through this SANDAG movie ("Mayor's Mojo Manhandled!") before.
In 1990, a new council majority of Melba Bishop, Don Rodee and Nancy York replaced Larry Bagley as SANDAG rep shortly before Bagley was to be named SANDAG chairman.
Six years later, the council turned on Mayor Dick Lyon and, in a tense 3-2 vote, yanked Lyon from his SANDAG seat.
"What we have here clearly," Lyon told a reporter, "is 1990 revisited when the troika summarily removed the mayor from SANDAG."
While it would be weird if Wood weren't upset over losing a prestigious post, he cannot claim that the world has been turned on its head by this insult to his executive privilege. Mayoral power has been subject to rude checks before.
Throw into the mix the city's 2-year-old charter, a hurriedly cobbled "constitution" that grants enhanced home (as opposed to state) rule, and it would seem that Wood's case gets weaker, not stronger.
To get a smart read on Wood's legal prospects, I contacted two attorneys, both familiar with the crossroads of law and politics.
"Do I think any potential lawsuit by Wood against the City of Oceanside would have merit?" began Leon Page, deputy counsel for Orange County, MiraCosta College trustee and public policy activist.
"I think it's doubtful. In my various lawsuits against public agencies, I have always had to overcome the 'political question' doctrine. Courts generally don't like to get involved in the internecine struggles fought in the political trenches of government. I think most judges would conclude, quite properly, that the voters will sort all this out, one way or the other, sooner or later. Why jeopardize the grandeur and nonpartisan authority of the judicial branch by wading into the muck and intervening in what inherently is a temporary dispute, lasting no longer than the time until the next election? The controversy will be over by the time the case gets to the appellate court, so why stick one's judicial neck out?
"I think the courts will generally only intervene in a political dispute when the normal political processes have gone off the rails, and an intervention is necessary to get the system functioning and back on track. What we have here, however, is a political system working to process conflicting voter signals. The system is actually working fine. And that is why I think Jim loses at the courthouse. The appointment to SANDAG is entirely a political question."
To counter Page's view, I called Mike Aguirre, the former San Diego city attorney who's representing Wood.
In a span of 30 seconds, Aguirre used the following adjectives to describe Wood's case: Unique. Appealing. Compelling. He likened the majority's action to a "beheading."
"I really see this as an issue of governance," Aguirre told me, one that tests the city's young, and cursory, charter, what Aguirre calls a "starter charter."

Hello, Im wondering if there is a mistake in the buoyancy specs for this Al80 tank. It shows a weight of -1.4lbs for a full tank and a weight of -3.4lbs for an empty tank. Should that read just the opposite? Also, is it possible to substitute a DIN valve for the yoke valve? Paying the difference is not a problem. Thanks!
Hey, I am contemplating purchasing tanks off you guys online, however are the tanks and valves fully serviced, hydrotested and ready to go diving with when you get them in the mail? Regards
We are a retail dive store just like any retail dive shop near you. The tanks come directly from the manufacturer just like any other local store and will be in the identical condition your local retailer purchases them in. The valve will not be in place. It's against DOT/CTC regulations to ship the cylinder with the valve in place. It will have the plastic shipping cap from the manufacturer in place. Do not valve the tank. If you take it to get filled with the valve in place and no air in the tank, the local dive store can and usually will charge you for a VIP. Let the store doing your first fill put the valve in for the first time.
Cylinder Specs
Service Pressure - 3000 psi
True Capacity - 77.4 cu feet
Buoyance - Full - -1.4 lbs

Home > Surgical Procedures > Shoulder Arthroscopy
1325 S Cliff AvenueSioux Falls, SD 57117-5045View a map605-322-8000
Shoulder arthroscopy is a procedure that uses a small camera called an arthroscope. The device is placed through a small cut in your skin and is used to examine or repair the tissues around or inside your shoulder joint.
SLAP repair; Acromioplasty; Bankart; Shoulder repair; Shoulder surgery
Arthroscopy may be recommended for these shoulder problems:
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that cover your shoulder join. These muscles and tendons hold your arm in your ball and socket shoulder joint. They also can help you move your shoulder in various directions. The tendons in the rotator cuff can tear when they are injured or overused.
A majority of patients receive general anesthesia before this procedure. You may also receive regional anesthesia, which means your arm and shoulder area will be numbed and you will be unable to feel pain in this area. If you're given regional anesthesia, you will also given a sedative to make you relaxed and also very sleepy during the operation.
Your surgeon will examine your shoulder with the arthroscope and then insert it into your shoulder through a small incision. The arthroscope is connected to a video monitor in the operating room. The surgeon will then inspect all of the tissues of your shoulder joint as well as the area above the joint – cartilage, bones, tendons, and ligaments. After this, any damaged tissue will be repaired. To do this, your surgeon will make 1 to 3 more small cuts and insert other instrumentation through them. A tear in a muscle, tendon, or cartilage will be fixed. Damaged tissue may need to be extracted.
One or more of the following procedures may be used during your surgery:
At the end of surgery, your incisions will be closed with stitches and covered with a bandage. Several surgeons opt to take photos of the surgery from the video monitor so that you can see what was repaired and/or what was type of damage was found.
Your surgeon may need to do open surgery if there is a lot of damage. Open surgery means you will have a large incision so that the surgeon can get directly to your bones and tissues. Open surgery is a more complicated surgery.
During the 2 weeks before your surgery
On the day of your surgery
Recovery can take 1 to 6 months. You will most likely have to wear a sling for the first week. If you had a considerable amount of repair done, you may have to wear the sling longer. It may range anywhere from 1 week to several months before you can return to work or play sports. Recovery time will depend on what your surgery entailed.
You may take medication to minimize your pain.
For many procedures, particularly those that required repairs, physical therapy may help you regain motion and strength in your shoulder. The length of therapy will depend on the repair that was needed.
Benefits of Arthroscopy
Surgery to fix a cartilage tear is usually done to make the shoulder more stable. Many people recover fully, and their shoulder stays stable. However, some people may still experience shoulder instability after arthroscopic repair.
Arthroscopy for rotator cuff repairs or tendonitis typically relieves the pain, but you may not recover all of your strength.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- We're still in the height of the flu season.
Many of us have already received our flu vaccination, but there are foods we can eat to prevent us from getting struck. In fact, 70% of our immune system is located in our gut.
Registered dietician Marie Spano visited us with four foods we can eat to keep our immune systems running strong.
1. Miso soup - naturally rich in probiotics, the friendly bacteria that populate our gut and help build our immune system in fighting off bad bacteria
2. Yogurt - contains probiotics, protein and vitamins we need for immune system functioning
3. Garlic - may build infection fighting white blood cells. A 12-week study found the active component in garlic helped decrease incidents of viruses and colds, and helped people recover from illnesses sooner
4. Crabs - contain about two thirds of our zinc needs every day to build infection-fighting white blood cells. You can also get zinc from baked beans and fortified cereals. You will want to ask your doctor before increasing your zinc level because too much zinc can actually suppress your immune system.

SECOA (SECure Outsourced Aggregation)
Outsourcing data streams and desired computations to a third party such as the cloud is practical for many companies due to overwhelming flow of information and excessively high resource requirements of their data stream applications. However, data outsourcing and remote computations intrinsically raise issues of trust, making it crucial to verify results returned by third parties. The SECOA project investigates techniques addressing this problem.

Fatal crash on CR 314 after motorcyclist lost control
Published: Thursday, March 28, 2013 at 8:34 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 28, 2013 at 8:34 a.m.
A 54-year-old motorcyclist was killed Wednesday evening after a head-on wreck on County Road 314 at Northeast 112th Avenue.
Tammy Lee Hook-Curvin was eastbound on CR 314 about 5:15 p.m. when she failed to negotiate a right curve and swerved into the opposite lane, the Florida Highway Patrol reported.
Her 2005 Harley-Davidson Custom 1200 struck a 2003 Mazda Tribute, the patrol said.
Hook-Curvin, who is from Vassar, Mich., was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the other vehicle, Daniel McConnell, 61, of McAlpin, suffered minor injuries. So did his passenger, Judith Marsh, 65.

Then tell us why, if tht wasn't your implication ... even though we both knw it was.
BTW ... here is your OP:
"There's something about this Bushmaster AR-15: Both Adam Lanza and William Spangler, the two gunmen in the Newtown and firefighter shootings, respectively, got their hands on the same make of semi-automatic, the .223 caliber rifle, pictured right. This popular sporting gun seems to be the weapon of choice for many a mass murderer. It's also the same gun used by James Holmes, of the Aurora theater shootings last summer, as well as Jacob Tyler Roberts, the mall shooter from a few weeks back. What is it about this Bushmaster that makes it so available and desirable for these gunmen?"
Run snoopy run!

WESTBURY, N.Y. (USA TODAY) - On a quiet street lined with the occasional remains of a downed tree or branch, voters in quiet Westbury, Long Island, trickled into the beige stone one-story Westbury Water District Garage Tuesday morning to cast ballots.
Merely a week after Superstorm Sandy ravaged much of the East Coast, general election voting here appeared to be running smoothly with no wait at all.
"Piece of cake," said Westbury resident Matt Cahill, 49, whose life in the week since Hurricane Sandy has been anything but.
Westbury was so hard hit that Nassau County, N.Y., election officials had to move two polling places to the water district garage. Cahill and his family just got their power back Monday. Because of the cold, he and his wife sent their four children to stay with his mother in Garden City Park. The lawyer who normally commutes to Manhattan worked out of an office his firm operates in Jericho, Long Island.
That was not the story everywhere.
Voters across the storm-ravaged East Coast left their unlit, unheated homes, walked past generators and fallen tree limbs and cast their votes. Many voted in polling places far from their voting districts under rules improvised by election officials to smooth the election process despite a storm that knocked out power to millions and flooded thousands of homes just a week ago.
At a school on Manhattan's East 23rd Street, some voters waited more than an hour to cast ballots, and two poll workers nearly came to blows with each other as they tried to handle the crowd.
"Things are a little hectic in the New York City area," where storm dislocations and recovery efforts were having an impact at polling places, said New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Cuomo signed an executive order earlier in the week allowing voters in five hard-hit counties who were displaced by Sandy to cast a vote for statewide and national races anywhere in the state. "Whatever your (political) preference today, please vote. Your patience at the polling places is required, as it has been all week long."
In Belmar, N.J., one of the hardest-hit towns along the Jersey Shore, it is difficult to stay away from the polls.
At any moment, half the town, it seemed, was congregating at the municipal complex on Main Street. In addition to being the site of a consolidated polling place for the entire borough, it's also the epicenter of the local storm relief effort.
So in addition to casting a ballot, residents could charge their cellphone, get a hot meal, pick up clothes and groceries, register with FEMA and find out what is going on around town.
Anita L. Adams, 73, whose mobile home on Route 35 is still without power, left with a winter coat, a blanket, a roll of toilet paper, a can of beans, a bag of dog food - and the satisfaction of knowing she had performed her civic duty.
"All done," she said. "Now I'm ready to go home and make a big pot of hot soup."
Mike Ellis hasn't had power in his Montclair, N.J., home since the night of Oct. 29. And early Tuesday he was racing to catch a bus so that he could get to the Manhattan bank where he works for the first time in seven days. But first he had to vote.
"Despite what I'm going through, I realize how important this vote is,'' said Ellis. "I have nothing but bad feelings for Mitt Romney. I don't like him. I don't trust him. I think Obama is a man of integrity. ... Let him finish what he started.''
Just two blocks away from Ellis' polling place at a local church, a handful of streets remained in darkness. But the polling place had power, and the line of voters that at times stretched out the door moved relatively quickly, with voters waiting 15 to 20 minutes to get into the voting booth.
Lora Wegner, a school teacher who lives in West Orange, says she was without power for four days. Now her lights are on, but she knows many other people are still suffering and she worries that the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy could keep some away from the polls.
"Some people have nothing," Wegner said. "I dropped clothes off yesterday at the Red Cross. People are picking their grandparents' pictures off the lawn. Whether voting is important to them, I don't know.''
Election officials in New Jersey and New York moved dozens of polling places and made other accommodations for voters displaced by the storm.
In New Jersey, Secretary of State Kim Guadagno has allowed voters to cast provisional ballots in any county for statewide races, which include votes for president, the Senate and two statewide ballot questions, said her spokesman, Ernest Landante.
Election officials will count those ballots at the end of the day, after verifying the voter's registration, signature and that he or she cast only one vote in the election, Landante said.
The list of polling stations that needed to be relocated because of the storm dropped from 800 last week to less than 100 Monday and zero this morning, he said. The reasons vary. Some came off the list because utilities provided power to those locations. Others have been moved or combined with polling places in the same district or nearby, he said.
Roughly 60 polling places were relocated in New York City, most because of structural damage, power outages or both caused by Superstorm Sandy. The moves, combined with the city's first use of electronically scanned ballots for a presidential election, led to long lines and some short tempers.
Electrical generators brought in to power polling places in a few areas hard hit by the storm initially failed to operate, but were later fixed, Valerie Vazquez, a spokeswoman for the New York City Board of Elections, said shortly after 11 a.m. The board hired extra information clerks to help voters find the proper line for their election district, said Vazquez.
"We're getting calls from polling places around the city that the early turnout is high," said Vazquez. "We're asking people to have patience with us. Our goal is to ensure that everybody who wants to vote gets to vote."
In Connecticut, the storm caused election officials to move only two of the state's 773 polling places, said Av Harris, a spokesman for the Connecticut Secretary of the State. This morning, 9,426 customers of Connecticut's two electric companies remained out of power.
"The hurricane is an issue," said Harris. "Some roads are blocked, and it may affect voter turnout. But we're a lot better off than a week ago. We didn't get hit as hard as New Jersey."
In Hudson County, N.J., an already challenging election was getting bogged down by voters who are not eligible for special e-mail ballots requesting them anyway, Deputy Hudson County Clerk Janet Larwa told the Daily Record.
New Jersey is allowing voters displaced by Superstorm Sandy to vote by e-mail or fax as state residents living overseas and members of the military are able to do. But Larwa said she received 2,000 requests for e-mail ballots by noon, many from people who were not displaced.
At Hooper Avenue Elementary in Toms River, N.J., election clerk Chris Patterson was expecting voters from 10 election districts rather than four, as voters from ravaged barrier island towns such as Seaside Heights made their way inland to vote.
Patterson was expecting another 200 voters. The extra load is smaller than it might have been because Ocean County opened three emergency offices where people could vote early. Change is coming so quickly that even Patterson can't keep up with it all. With an embarrassed smile, he said he's not quite sure how the state's plans to accept ballots via fax and e-mail will work.
"To tell you the truth I'm not sure," he said. "Our office only received power yesterday."
Superstorm Sandy's impact will also be felt in residents' votes for local politicians, said Eddie Denny, a Staten Island resident of about 22 years.
Many voters' opinions of a candidate were affected by the politician's performance after the storm, Denny said. His house was in one of the hardest hit areas of Staten Island. He is now working on recovery efforts for his home, but thought taking time to vote was important because "I want my candidates to win," he said.
Alisa Andrew in Newtown, Conn., said women's rights and health care issues were the major reasons she voted. President Obama "definitely" deserves another term in office, the 48-year-old writer said.
"I was impressed with how Obama handled the disaster," said Andrew, who spent four days last week without power. "He seemed very sincere, and I like the way he and (Republican New Jersey Governor) Chris Christie came together to help the victims."
Keith Kelly, 49, an IT manager in Newtown, where some residents are still without power, says he had no problem getting to a local elementary school to vote, and the storm had no effect on his view of the presidential election. He says he was
impressed by Mitt Romney during the presidential debates, and it's time for someone new in the White House.
Doug Schwartz, director of the independent Quinnipiac University Poll, based in Hamden, Conn., says recent national polls appear to show a "post-Sandy bounce" for President Obama. The most recent Quinnipiac University Poll of Connecticut voters, released Oct. 24 before Hurricane Sandy struck, showed Obama winning the New England state with 55% of the vote, and Mitt Romney with 41% of the vote.
Mary Cassidy, a 25-year-old Staten Island resident, turned out to vote at the makeshift voting area at New York City's Public School 52 on Staten Island. The school got soaked with Sandy's floods, so today voters cast ballots in tents on the outdoor basketball court. Poll workers in puffy winter coats and gloves sipped warm beverages as they helped voters sign in. Cuomo's idea to let people vote anywhere is "brilliant," Cassidy said.
"I was going to come out hell or high water," Cassidy said. She is going through chemo for breast cancer and brought a book, her prescriptions, knitting and a small stool in case there was a wait, though she didn't need them. It took her less than 10 minutes to register and vote.
Some voters were putting off voting till later in the day because storm damage left them confused about where to vote or unable to reach a polling place in time.
Ronny Kapner of Old Westbury, N.Y., said Tuesday morning things are "a mess" in his community due to the storm and he did not have a chance to vote before heading into Manhattan on the Long Island Rail Road for his sales job. He's not sure where he's supposed to vote or if officials relocated his polling site because of the storm. He'll vote tonight after work, he said.
"I think the high school is open," said Kapner, 60. "I'll find out from my wife."
One thing is certain, he said: He'll vote "because the country is going to pieces."

I got zimbra working and loving it using the community edition with about 15 accounts, some of my users starting noticing that they weren't getting certain emails from people they know and I took a look at my maillog and found out it was rejecting those e-mails the following is the log:
Sep 12 11:02:51 mail postfix/smtpd[5327]: connect from unknown[*.*.*.*]
Sep 12 11:02:51 mail postfix/smtpd[5327]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[*.*.*.*]: 450 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [*.*.*.*]; from=
to= proto=ESMTP helo=
Sep 12 11:02:51 mail postfix/smtpd[5327]: disconnect from unknown[*.*.*.*]
in the administrators page when managing global settings I have the following checked:
Hostname in greeting violates RFC (reject_invalid_hostname)
Client must greet with a fully qualified hostname (reject_non_fqdn_hostname)
Sender address must be fully qualified (reject_non_fqdn_sender)
now my question is can I have some sort of whitelist option I can create to accept email from this domain while still keeping the settings above or do I have to change something? Thank you in advance.
sorry here are more settings I have checked:
Client's IP address (reject_unknown_client)
Hostname in greeting (reject_unknown_hostname)
Sender's domain (reject_unknown_sender_domain)

I haven't seen anything relative to this problem in any other posts so I'll try to describe what is happening.
We have a group that is using one (fictional) member's calendar for central meeting planning and as an in/out message board. I mention that this user is fictional because it is an account generated merely to own the calendar but is never logged onto for use.
This calendar is shared to all the other members of their team and all members of the team are able to post their out-of-office periods on this shared calendar as a central reference point. This part of their usage (in/out message board) is working for them without a hitch.
The problem is with their central meeting planning. I say again that this is being done by someone who is not the actual calendar owner but by someone with manager access to the calendar.
As a meeting is being planned it is entered in this shared calendar and resources are reserved. At the time of the initial planning, attendees are not invited. At some point later, when the meeting agenda is firmed up, the meeting is edited, attendees are added and the meeting is saved with the 'Send Notification Mail' option selected.
The newly invited attendees indeed get their meeting invitations but for each one that responds to the invitation, the meeting organizer gets multiple responses from that user. In the case where the the attendee was one of a 40-person distribution list, the organizer received 15-20 response messages from each addressee that responded to the invitation.
Does this sound like a bug or could it possibly a configuration issue? As this is our only group of users working with a shared calendar, I haven't seen the problem with other users.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Ahhh, nothing like basking in the glow of victory!
After picking the first correct champ in weeks here at VANtage Point, I decided to treat myself to a mini-vacation: I figured since I was down in Monte Carlo watching VP pick Rafael Nadal storm his way to victory, I might as well stay down there a few extra days. I deserved it after all those missed calls. And let me tell you, there's nothing like Monte Carlo in the springtime!
(I can dream, can't I?)
Anyway, now that I'm back (to reality) it's VP time!
A Look Back: So this might've been the biggest no-brainer pick of them all that I've made, but Rafa took home his fifth Masters 1000 Monte Carlo title in a row, beating Novak Djokovic in a pretty decent three-setter. Nadal was my only semifinal pick to get that far: Andy Murray, Djoko and Stanislas Wawrinka, who beat the newlywed Roger Federer, all had better runs than I expected. I might have to revise my original train of thought about Murray on the dirt this year. And I think Djokovic will have a pretty strong clay-court season, too.
This Week's Spotlight: "Hey, where are all the WTA tournaments this week?" you might be asking yourself. Well, readers, the answer is the calendar's cleared off this week for Fed Cup. ("VANtage Point: Where we have all the answers"!) The WTA's Davis Cup counterpart is down to the semifinals this weekend with national powerhouse and defending champs Russia traveling to Italy and the little-underdog-that-could U.S. squad heading to the Czech Republic. There's also some intriguing playoff ties, such as Serbia vs. Spain and France vs. Slovak Republic, among the match-ups.
Players to Watch: Russia has three top 10 players it's throwing out there—Vera Zvonareva, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Nadia Petrova—but I'm not tagging them as the ones to watch. (New world number-one Dinara Safina and number-three Elena Dementieva aren't making the trip.) Rather, I think you should watch out for their Italian opponents, particularly Flavia Pennetta, Francesca Schiavone and Roberta Vinci. Schiavone and Vinci have been playing really well the past few weeks, and Pennetta's always pretty tough. Even though on paper, they're the underdogs, you have to wonder what playing at home will do for them on their favorite surface.
As for the other semifinal, the top U.S. player on the team, Bethanie Mattek-Sands, is making her Fed Cup debut—and doing that on the road in a later round is always tough, no matter who you are. For the Czech squad, I really want to see what Lucie Safarova does. She was supposed to be a solid top-tenner by now, but we all know that hasn't happened. If she's chosen to play, can she be a possible weak link?
And while it's just a playoff tie, that Serbia-Spain one can be a dogfight with all the players on both squads going all-out.
And the Winners Are: You know what? I'm going to go with Italy in the upset, taking the tie 3-2. As for the other one, I think the matches will be closer than anyone would expect, but I still see the Czech Republic beating the U.S. 4-1.

VANtage Point: Monte Carlo musings, FED CUP preview
Labels: FED CUP, guest post, Monte Carlo Masters, tennis, VANtage Point

Vera is severely injured with RG in doubt so I don't think she'll be playing Fed Cup this week.ReplyDelete
And I had plenty of Monte-Carlo fantasies last week, between the setting and the clothes there was lots to see!
Hey Kia, I'm glad I wasn't the only one!ReplyDelete
I saw that about Vera, too. I think they're saying she could possibly be out for a few months even.
Hey Van!ReplyDelete
I'm looking forward to watching Bethannie play! Fed Cup is fun because it gives me the chance to care about players who normally fall through the broadcasting cracks. . .
I agree Italy could pull off the upset - they are such a good team.
Hey FF, it looks like Bethanie had some mixed results, but I guess it's what happens in the end that counts!ReplyDelete
What a Hollywood story line.ReplyDelete
Complete with Bethanie's last minute redemption.
I don't usually follow Fed Cup but I happened to be home and was really impressed by Glatch.

- Ana Ivanovic talking with Steve Tignor at Indian Wells
Uh, I think you got into the wrong profession, NaturAna. Good luck with that one though.
(image via womenstennisphotos)
Labels: Ana Ivanovic, player quotes, tennis
that was a nice piece from tignor. i'm not a big ana fan but this write-up made me like her even more. it warms the heart when people who are as good-looking, smart and talented like her are really nice and genuine. it seems that tignor was mesmerized by her. imo, it's probably one of the best that he's written this year.
have you read his post on azarenka? that girl needs to have her attitude checked, blech. i hate the sharapova comparison too.
It was and it seems he couldn't get over how "half glass full" she was about mostly everything until she let on about things like this quote.
She's a tried and true emotional lady baller and it would be good for her to relax on herself a bit on court. I think saying things like this quote is a way of her doing that - just saying what she's really feeling.
Behind all the giddiness and smiles is this loner type person who sometimes would rather be anywhere but in the middle of a media mob.
She's human after all.
Aw, poor beautiful rich girl. LOLReplyDelete

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
When you open a bounty, you can type in a message for why you're opening the bounty. Jeremy Banks typed that in as their message. It has nothing to do with Stack Overflow, they do not endorse it, it is not an advertisement from them.
Bounty notices will support our markdown mini format using the same format as we allow for comments. The following will be allowed:
I flagged it for moderation with the following comment:
If, however, Stack Exchange, LLC, permits bounty-based advertising on any question, then I will be more than happy to put my reputation to use in an advertising campaign. I can put up to 3 seven-day advertisements on popular questions at once for a mere 150 rep per weekly campaign. Very reasonably priced!
I love this idea, it's so much cheaper than the advertising program Stack Exchange runs, and it's much more front-and-center for even high-reputation users. Much larger advertising can be used, and even a flickering gif. Very, very cool!
I verified that you can put images in bounty reasons. This probably isn't intentional, and the case above is almost certainly abuse.
(Note that in this case I refunded the bounty - this was just a test.)
We'll have to wait and see what the official response is, but image markdown probably wasn't supposed to be enabled in bounties.

- I graduated from Georgia Tech in August, 2007 with an Industrial and Systems Engineering degree.
- I love to travel and my next destination of choice is South America. I would love to work abroad at some point. So far I've been to:
Singapore + China + Thailand + Cambodia + Malaysia + Inner Mongolia + Australia + Luxembourg + France + Italy + Germany + Austria + Spain + Netherlands + Belgium + Haiti + Bahamas + Canada
- I have glasses. But I've had them for less than a year.
- My pinky finger is as long as my second toe.
- This photo is WAY TOO BIG!!!
Five Observations:
- very low ceilings
- the tunnel has to accomodate ALL traffic between Grady and Hughes Spalding, ranging from children walking through with their families to dead people rolling on carts...
- the ER seemed very small, and with 50,000 people coming through every year it seemed like it would be hard to manage through traffic as well as handle the amount of people in the actual rooms.
- everyone working there seemed very friendly and happy to be there.
- every part of the hospital uses the same corridor system for way-finding.
Five Ideas:
- Have the control panel for each of the radiology rooms in the same room. This would consolidate space, and would make more sense if you made one room a little bigger instead of having 2 rooms which provide the same function that weren't used all the time.
- Use a nurse/patient matching system for recurring patients.
- Have colored ceiling tiles for the way to certain areas of the hospital. ie, if there was a strip of green ceiling tiles (or green paint, even), that would be one way to the ER, etc. Obviously the main entrance would have all stripes on the ceilings, and then they would branch from one another.
Three Conversations:
- I talked to our tour guide about which parts of the hospital would overlap and which parts of the hospital would be totally torn down to make way for the soon-to-be parking area.
- I asked Les Sanders what the neatest innovations for the new hospital would be.
- I asked the man in Radiology whether the observation rooms for both machine rooms were combined or separate.
"Embracing Evidence Based Design"
- I found it very surprising that the chances of dying through error are so high. (1/300-1/700)
- only 14-30% of health care providers wash their hands. This leads to the spending of 1.7M with 99K deaths.
- hospitals are VERY LOUD- and the noise worsens patient AND staff outcomes. (louder than a jackhammer, shown by studies)
- introduction of Room Zoning: 1. Family Zone 2. Patient Zone 3. Health Care Provider Zone
other interesting feature: larger doors so patients can fit in and out of the rooms WITH at least one other person
- Effects of "Viewing Nature":
+ women stayed one full day less on average in the hospital + death rate was 70% higher in dull rooms + 21% lower drug costs for patients in brighter rooms + 22% fewer analgesics for patients in brighter rooms
- If the turnaround time is only one year for including all of these features in hospitals, why do people not add the features?
- How much would it cost to test for the most spreadable diseases within the hospital? Would this be a partial solution to fewer infections? Dr. Zimring mentioned how some countries test for disease, but others don't.
More ideas to come before next week....
Particularly Interesting Remarks:
- Most doctors are not employed by the hospital -> the hospital "allows" doctors on the staff.
- Hughes Spalding designers wished to make the new hospital "more like home" for the patient focus.
+ warm colors + lots of windows + natural light + hardwook floors -> fake linoleum! + music
- new beds employ self-propulsion
- staff lounges have more windows, which really helps with staff retention
- put supplies in the same locations at all 3 places
- wireless access EVERYWHERE. but is it free?
- "Computers on Wheels" (COWs) keep up with paperwork management for hospital staff. 1 for every 5 rooms.
Food for Thought:
- How can you design something so creative/innovative that someone will want to put their name on it?
- How do you make everyone jump on the bandwagon? This seems to be a prevalent problem with new innovations EVERYWHERE, not just health care.
I wrote down a few notes about "room messaging," which would explain everything you would want to know about what is going on with a certain procedure happening in that room, etc. However, I don't remember if that is actually being employed or if it is a new idea. I'll ask someone.

There seemed to be some interest on the topic of how to make map borders using GIMP, so I decided to write a mini-tutorial on the Subject. Below I've included a png of what the completed map borders should look like. This is not intended as an exhaustive treatment of the topic, and if anyone would like to add their own tips and tricks to this thread please feel free to do so.
What You Will Need::
In addition to using GIMP 2.6.1, I also make use of a plug-in called Layer Effects, which is a script that attempts to emulate some of the features of Phostoshop's Layer Styles. I will also be using a Slate pattern, which you can find below. To import this to GIMP, click on the image and save it as a file somewhere where you will know where to find it. Then reopen the image in GIMP and save it as a .pat file in the "Patterns" folder of GIMP (I'm using Windows 7 and in my directory it looks like this: Computer > (C:) > Users > Owner > .gimp-2.6 > Patterns). Close and reopen GIMP, and the Slate pattern should be in your patterns dialogue.
Hope this is useful to some of you out there.

Has anyone seen this before? I downloaded zimbra-iSync installer (5.0.17_GA_2957.MACOSX_UB), tried to install, got the message
'System Preferences Must be closed before the installer can continue.' I do not have system preferences open, but, just in case, logged out (and logged out all other users) and then logged back in, only to get the same message. The installation then fails, with message: "The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

Valparaiso, IN (Sports Network) - Ben Averkamp finished with 16 points, five
assists, and five rebounds as the Loyola-Chicago Ramblers defeated the
Valparaiso Crusaders, 63-54, in the Horizon League opener for both sides at
the Athletics-Recreation Center.
Christian Thomas contributed 14 points and six rebounds for Loyola (10-3, 1-0
Horizon), which won for the fourth time in a row. Cully Payne also made an
impact by scoring 13 points and dishing out seven assists.
Ryan Broekhoff paced Valparaiso (10-5, 0-1) with 15 points and seven rebounds.
Kevin Van Wijk also grabbed seven boards while he and LaVonte Dority each
netted 10 points as the Crusaders had their three-game winning streak come to
an end.
Loyola took a 26-24 lead into the intermission after it hit 41.7 percent of
its field goal attempts including 5-of-10 from beyond the arc. The Crusaders
trailed by only two points despite shooting just 29.4 percent from the floor
in the opening 20 minutes.
Valpo heated up to knock down 45.5 percent of its attempts from the field
after the break, but the Ramblers found their touch as well and drained 52.2
percent of their field goal tries. Loyola used an 11-3 run to take a double-
digit, 50-40, advantage with just 5:48 left to play and held off the hosts the
rest of the way.
The 3-point line played a big factor as the Ramblers sank 6-of-15 from
distance and held Valpo to just 4-of-15 shooting from beyond the arc.

Indianapolis, IN (Sports Network) - Indianapolis head coach Chuck Pagano has
been medically cleared by his doctor to return to his coaching duties.
According to the Indianapolis Star, Pagano's oncologist, Dr. Larry Cripe, said
that Pagano is recovered from a medical perspective and has no restrictions,
but it is the coach's decision of when he will return to his duties.
It was reported that there is a possibility that Pagano will return to work on
Monday to prepare for the Colts' regular-season finale at home against Houston
on December 30.
Back in early November, Dr. Cripe announced that Pagano's acute promyelocytic
leukemia was in remission, but the 52-year-old first-year coach still had to
undergo two rounds of chemotherapy. He will still be on a maintenance program
for around two more years until he is declared cured.
Pagano was diagnosed with leukemia in late September and took an indefinite
leave of absence from the Colts during the team's Week 4 bye. Offensive
coordinator Bruce Arians has been serving as head coach in the interim.
He stayed in contract with the team throughout his treatment and occasionally
talked to the team before and after several home games.
The Colts have gone 8-3 with Arians and currently hold a wild card spot in the
AFC with a mark of 9-5. The team plays in Kansas City on Sunday.

* End of Summer Celebration: Backyard Shaving Cream Fight Fun!
I was inspired by Meg Duerksen's family tradition of
an end of summer shaving cream fight in the backyard.
So... last night, before dinner and pre-bath,
I told the girls to go out into the backyard for a surprise.
I handed them each a can of shaving cream and told them to have fun!
The shaving cream was "sensitive skin" formula from the Dollar Tree,
leftover from a shaving cream marbling art lesson.
They decided to wear sun glasses as "protective eye wear" to keep it out of their eyes
but then decided to ditch the sunglasses (and the flip flops) and just have fun.
If anyone got it near their eyes, I just used the corner of my t-shirt
to wipe it away - each of the girls only got a bit in their mouths once.
Both girls had a blast making hair-dos and the mirror by the swing set
(it's on the back of our shed -- a rescue from a neighbor's trash a few years ago)!
When they were both covered, I took them inside,
put them in the shower and hosed them off - clothes and all.
We would have used the hose but it was a bit chilly.
I only ended up with a bit of shaving cream -
they got me on the butt after I took this photo -- nice!
They had a blast, made great memories, I got some awesome photos,
and the girls think I'm the best mom ever (thank you Meg!)
Do you have any (messy) end of summer traditions?

Officers on Patrol In Our Schools
December 29, 2012
Law enforcement personnel trained to work with young people can make a world of difference when they are stationed in schools as "resource officers....
Guards are not the same as Mr Rogers with a gun. Resource officers are "supposedly" kept busy with conflicts, bullying, teaching classes such as conflict resolution, etc. They are not guarding-they are interacting with any kid or group they find to be troubled. So I have been told.
0 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Anyone who says guards in schools do NOT deter violence is full of crap.
The Washington Elite send their children to a PRIVATE CHRISTIAN School, Sidwell Quaker Friends, in Washington DC.
They have ELEVEN, yes 11, armed guards consisting of mostly active and retired police officers and military.
THEY KNOW what works on high visibility targets.

VBMilcom.com - Resources for Virginia Beach's Finest
Welcome to the Virginia Beach Defense Business Center site. An initiative by the Military Economic Development Advisory Committee (MEDAC), this site has been developed to assist area businesses interested in expanding their government contracting capability.
Virginia Beach's proximity to the world's largest naval base – not to mention the Pentagon – makes it an obvious candidate for companies associated with the Department of Defense or Homeland Security contract firms.
The Virginia Beach/Hampton Roads area is home to 12 major military installations representing all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, including the world's largest naval base and the home of the Atlantic Fleet.
Virginia Beach is home to a civilian workforce of 228,000. The Hampton Road's civilian labor force is substantially larger than that of the City's, which allows businesses to draw from a pool of more than 824,000 people. In addition to civilian workers, the region is home to the largest concentration of Department of Defense installations in the world, with an active duty population of more than 108,000.
Each year approximately 12,000 active-duty personnel exit the military in the region, with many preferring to stay in the area and seek private sector employment. The education and training level of the exiting military personnel bring diverse and disciplined production, technical, managerial, computer and electronic skills to the labor force.
Virginia Beach has also partnered with the Commonwealth of Virginia to create an innovative new program to stop encroachment around Naval Air Station Oceana: YesOceana.com. This award-winning program provides resources and incentives for businesses willing to move in or out of designated areas so that businesses surrounding the base conform to existing Navy land use easements. For more information, visit www.yesoceana.com.
Additional information about the military population in Hampton Roads, as well as resources and upcoming events, can be found in the links below.

I've actually been wrestling with the same issue. For the first time, the rules actually encourage players to use the terrain, rather than it just being pretty scenery or x-ed out squares on the battle map. We just had our first session last weekend, and I'm finding myself completely redoing the rest of the dungeon to put more of the stuff you're talking about into it.
I think you'll do very well if you take all that into account in the maps you make available.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Defense Secretary Leon Panetta says he's seen no outward sign that North Korea will follow through soon on its plan to conduct a third nuclear test.
But he says that doesn't mean much because Pyongyang has the ability to test in ways that are difficult to detect.
Panetta says the U.S. is "very concerned" with North Korea's announcement of a planned nuclear test - which he called "needlessly provocative."

I am trying to deploy ZCO 220.127.116.1131 and I am running into an issue with the syncing of email signatures problem. It appears to be well documented as I see lots of threads about it. This signature synching does not appear to be in affect on ZCO 5 and 6, but going to 7 it has become a problem for us.
To make a long story short I would like to know where this option is set either in the registry or in a configuration file so I can set it to off with a script. I checked the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Zimbra and it does not exist in there nor can I find it anywhere else.
I am using the ZmCustomizeMSI Java script to set other options and I do not see the option in there. I am using a VB script to deploy the software on boot up and in that same script I would like to set synching of signatures to off.

Thanks for the help!

Alright, so I translated. Here's what Rafa said:ReplyDelete
"DTL readers, I love you all so much. I have dreams about all of you, especially Rich. You all make me so happy. Johanne, Babz, Sonja...I feel faint.
Oh yes, and natch...I'll see you down under..."
No, really, that's what he said. Tune in again to Babz FM, otherwise known as EL TORO. You'll hear the same translation.
Hahahaha I was thinking I heard "Sonja, babz, natch...." between all that Spanish rambling.ReplyDelete
