WHEELING - When the game is on the line, it is usually time for Emily Puskarich to shine.
With Wheeling Park struggling to maintain the lead down the stretch against backyard rival John Marshall Friday night, Puskarich scored nine of her team's final 10 points and came up with two critical steals enabling the Patriots to hang on for a 63-57 victory.
The triumph on Senior Night enabled Wheeling Park to finish off the regular season with a 13-8 record, including two decisions over the Monarchs. John Marshall will carry an 11-11 record into post-season play next week.
''Those two steals were huge," noted Patriots' Coach Dee Davis. ''Emily started playing defense on the right end of the floor and did a nice job there."
Trailing 30-26 at halftime, John Marshall used back-to-back threes from hobbled senior all-stater Kylie Howard and eventually closed the gap to 48-44 entering the final eight minutes.
Howard, after missing nine games because of another knee injury, has looked good the last two starts, scoring 21 against University and adding 16 points and eight rebounds Friday night.
The Monarchs had a huge opportunity to tie the game halfway through the fourth quarter and possibly steal the win at the end. Emily Winters knocked down the first of a two-shot foul to cut the deficit to 53-51.
When she missed the second attempt, the ball wound up in the hands of Morgan Watson and she also drew a foul on the putback attempt.
Unfortunately for the visitors, both those free throws jumped off the rim. John Marshall had still another opportunity to tie the game but an attempted pass from the wing wound up in Puskarich's hands and she was fouled on her way to the basket. The Park four-year standout and first team all-state honoree last winter nailed both shots for a 55-51 lead with 3:18 remaining.
John Marshall's Kristen Lewcki got loose on the baseline and her bucket made it a two-point deficit. After Marissa Tucker misfired with her three-point attempt, the Monarchs were headed back up the floor when Puskarich stole the ball for the second time and she sailed in for the uncontested layup extending the lead back to four at the 1:40 mark.
After two more misses at the stripe the Monarchs were left with no choice but to hack the first Park player with the ball every time, and on nearly every occasion, that turned out to be Puskarich. At the one-minute mark, she was perfect at the line again giving the Patriots a 59-53 advantage with just 1:02 on the clock.
Howard went baseline and dropped in two more points but Puskarich was immediately fouled and swished the pair to restore the six-point margin. The Monarchs hurried attempt at a three-pointer jumped off the rim and Puskarich went back to the line and cashed one of two on this trip.
The Patriots Kendra Johnson made one of two foul shots with 21 seconds to play before JM's Watson drained a shot from the outside to close the scoring.
John Marshall also had its problems at the foul line, making only five of 15 attempts including just one of seven in the fourth quarter.
Monarchs' Coach Mark McCormick, while disappointed with the loss, had no complaints about this team's effort. ''I can't fault my girls. They executed the game plan. We came in obviously trying to take away Park's two prolific scorers, Robb and Puskarich. I thought we did a nice job with the triangle and two defense and it seemed to confuse them at times."

Easy to make and tasty! Plus, the possibilities are endless. So much could be added to this to change the flavor. It's a keeper!
I thought it was average and fairly bland. I added green peppers, onions and mushrooms as suggested by others, still needed something else. Perhaps a tasty sausage or combination of meats would give it more flavor.
This has been our traditional Christmas morning breakfast for years! I put everything together the night before, cover, and refrigerate and then pop it in the oven to bake in the morning while we open gifts.

A bomb threat phoned in to Meridian police claimed there was a bomb at Kate Griffin Junior High School. It proved to be a hoax.
Students were evacuated around 8:45 a.m., but a thorough search by the Meridian Fire and Police Departments revealed nothing suspicious.
"We've always taken them seriously and especially in light of the fact that we have a number of things going on around the country," said Dr. Sam Thompson, director of public safety for the Meridian School District. "And our state superintendent has also placed the districts in the state on level orange. But we have always taken them seriously because we just cannot take anything for granted."
The penalty for making a threat is up to five years in prison. Arrests have been made in similar incidents in the past.
Anyone with information about this latest crime is asked to call the Meridian Schools Crimestoppers number at 484-4906.

The peak can be reached by cable car from the vacation village of Moléson-sur-Gruyères. The cable car leads to Plan-Francey. Subsequently, one continues traversing the rocks by aerial cable car. During the day one has a superb, sweeping view of the region around Lake Geneva, Gruyères Region and the Alps, and at night breathtaking vistas of the depths of the universe. All this is possible on top of Mt. Moléson thanks to the world's largest binoculars and an observatory with four telescopes.
And the summer toboggan run, downhill karts, grass scooters, two via ferrata routes, Alpine cheese-making and dairy hike, summit observatory or ridge hike over the Teysachaux to Les Paccots are even more reasons to visit the Moléson and environs in summer.
The 30 km of pistes, nicely topped with funicular rail, a cable car and six ski lifts, cater to varying degrees of ability and unforgettable enjoyment. In addition, funicular rail here leads to numerous snowshoe trails and a 4 km long sledge run offside the ski slopes.
The Moléson also has opportunities to head off in all directions on attractive winter hikes and snowshoe trails. 3.5 km of signposted paths from Gruyères to the Lake Geneva region lead through largely unspoilt and enchanting snowy landscapes.

Honest Debate On Guns Vital
January 21, 2013
Surely liberals in the state Senate do not think Ohioans are gullible enough to accept "trust us" assurances their rights are not being violated. Buckeye State residents know better....
I think a nice 90mm rocket launcher and a 50 cal. machinegun in every home would be nice. While we're at it, how about a ICBM silo in everyone's side yard. They're all "arms" aren't they and we have the right to have them. It's what the 2nd Amendment says, and we're all sure that that's what the Founding Fathers intended. Any arbitrary limitation on what "arms" we are allowed to bear would erode those "inalienable" rights they granted us. Isn't that the logical extention to this nonsensical piece of tripe that the Eds. printed?

The extreme left freedom haters need to read and understand the constitution. I for one do not believe that the extreme left freedom haters would be satisfied with simple restrictions on military-style assault weapons. I believe the extreme left freedom haters won't be happy until no law abiding citizen has the ability to defend themselves or keep government tyranny at bay.The extreme left freedom haters want to blow everything out of proportion by saying, why not allow us to have hand-held ICBM's and NASA launch pads in our yards. The extreme left freedom haters refuse to talk about the mental health aspect of the argument they only want to restrict freedoms.They do not want to talk about violence in movies and video games, they only want to restrict freedoms. The freedom haters do not want intelligent discussion about our violent society, they did not want intelligent discussion about health-care either! COMMUNIST BULLIES!

Liberals can't HAVE an honest debate on ANYTHING because they will LOSE!
FACT: guns prevent 1.8 MILLION violent crimes a year.
FACT: the last ban on Assault wepaons saw an INCREASE in gun crimes.
FACT: If you take out the top 5 US GUN VIOLENCE BIG CITIES, the rate of violence is similar to industrialized nations of the world.
In rural areas the crime rate is LESS than most nations of the world.
FACT: the US is 33rd in gun homicides among whites in the world.
FACT: 64 MILLION gun owners committed NO crime today.
FACT: MURDER regardless of the weapon is punishable by DEATH in most states. IF THAT does stop gun crime, WHAT POSSIBLE penalty WILL???

Spanky,you are hyperventilating. Relax. This is a forum for the exchange of opinions and ideas. If you cannot tolerate differing viewpoints regarding this issue perhaps you should limit yourself to Rush L. and Glen B. I believe in the right to own firearms - with reasonable regulations. I see no justification for the civilian use of high-tech military weapons, particularly ones that are designed for high volume rates of fire. If you believe you need a gun for home defense I suggest a shotgun. It's a very basic firearm and takes little training to make one adequately proficient in its use. If you keep an assault weapon in your house an invader may be after it. The bad guys generally want nothing to do with a shotgun.

The Second Amendment guarantees the right to bear a semiautomatic rifle with a high capacity magazine because forces of a tyrannical government would be bearing those arms. Wheeldog, you can keep your self-defense shotgun, though. I won't try to take it from like you gun-grabbing libbies are trying to disarm me.

On second thought, do you think you could do any serious damage in a crowd with a home-defense 8-round pump action 12 gauge? What do you need 8 rounds in 8 seconds for? Each 00 buckshot shell contains 9 pellets. That's more than twice as many lethal projectiles as my 30 round mag. Maybe that's too much firepower for you. Turn it in, Wheeldog. For the kids.

The recent edition of Time Magazine addresses the gun control issue form different perspectives. On major article, "Your Brain Under Fire," focuses on a firearm's instructor who is a member of the NRA and supports the right to own guns. However, he dispels many of the myths about the effectiveness of arming teachers and other civilians - and even calls into question the adequacy of firearms training of law enforcement officers. As he describes, all-too-many people literally freeze up or become completely inaccurate when faced with a real-life confrontation with an armed person. This issue goes beyond simple target practice. It is often a completely uncontrolled knee jerk reaction to a crisis situation. I recommend reading the article.

Silberman Wins Bronze Medal At Maccabiah Games
JERUSALEM, Israel – Cyclone sophomore swimmer Shahar Silberman took home the bronze medal in the 200-meter butterfly earlier this week at the 2013 Maccabiah Games. The former Israeli National Youth Team member clocked in at 2:19.82 behind fellow Israeli Shir Wasserman and American Leah Goldman.
"Although as a competitive athlete my goal is to be first, I was very happy with my time," Silberman said. "It was my second time swimming on the Israeli team at the Maccabiah; being part of the games is a great experience and a lot of fun."
Silberman placed fourth in both the 200 fly and the 400 individual medley in her first appearance at the Maccabiah Games back in 2009 and holds three Israeli National Championship titles in the 200 fly.
In her first season with the Cyclones in 2012-13, Silberman raced the second-fastest 200 fly time on the team, touching the wall at 2:06.30 at the Big 12 Championships meet.
About the Maccabiah Games from the event website:
The Maccabiah is the world's largest Jewish athletic competition in the tradition and values of Maccabi, emphasizing the centrality of the State of Israel in the life of the Jewish people. The Maccabiah takes place every four (4) years in Israel - "the Jewish Olympics" as they are often called, are Maccabi World Union's largest and most famous enterprise.

Network of Champions Arises in Transboundary Watersheds of Mesoamerica
18 June 2012 | News story
The first meeting of transboundary champions, promoted by BRIDGE (Building River Dialogue and Governance), was held on May 29.
San Jose, Costa Rica, June 6, 2012. This initiative is aimed at mobilizing transboundary cooperation based on the search for solutions to common problems and promotion of comprehensive watershed management.
The event took place in San Jose, Costa Rica and brought together seven women and seven men committed to good water management and governance in four shared watersheds of Mesoamerica: Chiquibul-Mopán, between Belize and Guatemala; Coatán, between Guatemala and Mexico; Goascorán, between Honduras and El Salvador; and Sixaola, between Panama and Costa Rica.
Meeting participant Pablo Rayo, Panamanian representative of the Sixaola River basin, explained, "We are in the network of champions to become strengthened and follow up on the work being done by the Binational Committee. We're helping each other in order to care for, watch over and maintain the watersheds. We have to get involved, become empowered, to demand the best treatment for watersheds and ourselves from governments."
This event was the first step toward consolidating a network of champions of transboundary watershed cooperation. Those attending discussed the situation of water and associated resources and a vision of local watersheds toward 2020.
Said Leonidas Pérez, of the Binational Committee of the Goascorán River basin (Honduras-El Salvador) and network member, "The countries need to work around protection of the binational watersheds, placing the welfare of the watershed and its residents above any special interest."
As objective, participants decided to concentrate efforts on local organization, educating the population, coordination of work, involvement of government institutions and financing.
The BRIDGE project is also implemented in South America (Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia) and Southeast Asia (lower part of the Mekong River basin), where similar networks are also being formed simultaneously. The project is executed by the IUCN through its global Water Programme, the Environmental Law Centre and the regional offices for Mesoamerica, South America and Southeast Asia, with the support of Swiss cooperation (COSUDE).

Ned Yost media session: Betemit trade
Before the Royals and Chicago White Sox squared off in Wednesday's 7:10 rubber match at Kauffman Stadium, Kansas City manager Ned Yost announced that the club traded reserve infielder Wilson Betemit to the Detroit Tigers in exchange for minor leaguers Antonio Cruz and Julio Rodriguez.
Cruz, a 19-year-old left-handed pitcher, has pitched the entire season for West Michigan in the Class A Midwest League, compiling a 2-6 record with a 3.11 ERA in 22 games, including 10 starts. He was signed by Detroit as a non-drafted free agent out of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic on January 7, 2009. West Michigan is playing the Royals' Class A affiliate Kane County this evening, so Cruz will switch clubhouses and be in uniform for the Cougars tonight.
Rodriguez, a 21-year-old catcher, is hitting .283 with 11 doubles, one home run, 27 RBI and 20 runs scored in 66 games for Lakeland in the Florida State League (A Advanced). He was named the Dominican Summer League Tigers Player of the Year in 2008 and was an All-Star in the New York-Penn League last season for Connecticut. Rodriguez will join the Royals' High A affiliate in Wilmington.
Yost was complimentary of Betemit during his tenure in Kansas City and indicated that the veteran now enters a situation in Detroit where he has a chance to receive more playing time.
"Wilson did a great job for us," Yost said. "He's great on a club because he's got great makeup [and] he's got a great attitude."
To fill Betemit's roster spot, the club has recalled infielder Mike Aviles from AAA Omaha. Aviles was hitting .307 with nine home runs, eight doubles, two triples, 25 RBI and 21 runs scored in 35 games for the Storm Chasers. His .586 slugging percentage led the team. Aviles was on the Royals' 2011 Opening Day roster and played in 47 games for the big league club with five home runs, 30 RBI and 10 stolen bases.
Aviles has played second base, shortstop and third base during his previous stints in the Majors and offers Yost the ability to give shortstop Alcides Escobar, second basemen Chris Getz and third basemen Mike Moustakas an occasional day of rest.
"Our intent was to get Aviles back here," Yost said. "[The trade] gives Wilson a chance to go to a club where he's going to play more, and it gives us better options in the infield."

The myriad benefits of minerals for the skin have long been known, leading many natural medical practitioners to recommend bathing and washing the skin in mineral water. Although this practice is cumbersome and can become expensive, there was for many years no beauty product that was able to provide minerals in a natural form that could rival those found in mineral water. The skin experts at Kerstin Florian, however, believed that it was possible and tirelessly worked for nearly two decades to discover the secret of enriching skin care products with water's minerals. Ultimately, the expert proved successful, and the Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral collection was born.
The items in the Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral range are produced with the brand's revolutionary method of distilling mineral salts without sacrificing their potency. The Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral range is a full line of skin care products that represent an entire daily regimen meant to cleanse, exfoliate, nourish and hydrate. In addition to its daily use products, the Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral collection includes a number of spa-quality treatments for luxurious pampering.
The skin care experts at Kerstin Florian spent nearly 20 years perfecting a method to distill water and remove nourishing minerals, while completely preserving their effectiveness. The technique they perfected is known as thermal mineral distillation and is the backbone of the Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral line. This range of skin care and bath products cleans, moisturizes and soothes the skin through mineral-rich formulations that rival the most pampering and luxurious skin treatments available at leading European spas.
Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral Moor Mud Mask contains luxurious mud sourced from Hungary. Approximately 35 percent of the mud's content comes from skin-enriching minerals, which are absorbed by your skin in this pampering mask treatment. Safe for all skin types, the mask penetrates deeply into the pores to remove dirt and oil for a clearer, more radiant complexion.
Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral Therapeutic Mineral Bath Salts impart a concentrated dose of minerals into your bathwater and restore the mineral balance in your body to leave you looking and feeling your best. The minerals in the formula are obtained from waters in France and are rich in magnesium, potassium, calcium and iodine.
Kerstin Florian Thermal Mineral Shower and Bath Gel combines thermal minerals with pine and geranium extracts to stimulate circulation while cleansing the skin. The gel is multipurpose and can be used in place of soap in the bath or shower or added to running bathwater to create a rich, luxurious tub full of bubbles for a relaxing soak.

Very nice BC with nice features. Lots of D-rings to clip on accessories. Big pockets. Spots to bolt on a BC knife. Im very tall and the Cressi BCs somehow fit the best and provide a horizontal position in the water with no effort. Quick dump valves are easy to find and use. There are also adjustments so you can tighten the closure if you need to, which most BCs dont offer.

Pinnacle makes some good wet suits. It fits really well and is tight around the openings to help keep the flow of water out. It also has a very thick spine pad to keep the water from coming in the zipper and chilling your spine. They also make a good range of sizes so you can get a good fit.

I traded in a Mosquito for this computer. I believe it is the only watch style computer that does gas switches. There are 3 gas switches for tec diving. 21-100% O2. You can also do integrated pressure monitoring with it with a different transmitter on each of your tanks, so when you switch gases, you also switch transmitters automatically. It is also a Neo-Haldanean model, which is more liberal with recreational diving. I find the RGBM models to be too conservative for me. Its a great computer for the price. Definitely recommended.

I was looking for a mouthpiece similar to the Atomic type. This one is close. I get some pain in my jaw from biting down on really small mouthpieces. This one fits deep in the mouth and distributes the pressure among many teeth and reduces jaw stress. Could be a little softer though.

Self sealing SMBs are the best. They dont spill when you send them up. I use it with my reel for tec diving. Well worth the extra cost. The OMS version is a good one.

Five First Growths of Bordeaux will be Tasted
You don't need $10,000 – although you do need to be 21 – to experience some of the world's finest wines during a new, noncredit course being offered by the New York University School of Continuing and Professional Studies (NYU-SCPS) next month.
Taught by Dr. Bjorn Hanson, a renowned hospitality and travel industry expert, and wine connoisseur, the course, "Understanding and Tasting the World's Finest Wines," will take place on Monday, October 7, from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the Washington Square Campus. The cost to attend is $495.
A sensory delight for wine aficionados, the samples offered for tasting during the class – the five first growths of Bordeaux – are rare. "Most wine experts and enthusiasts agree – the finest and most prestigious wines in the world are the five first growths of Bordeaux," said Hanson, divisional dean and clinical professor at the NYU-SCPS Preston Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and Sports Management.
The five "first growths" refer to a classification system, developed in 1855, for the Bordeaux wines of France, and are based upon winemaking techniques that have stood the test of time. The best vintages of these wines retail for between $1,000 and $10,000 per bottle, according to Hanson.
In his class, oenophiles will have the opportunity to taste all five first growths and to learn why these wines are special and what makes them great. The class also covers the entire wine experience, including storing, opening, pouring, and tasting wines, as well as wine glasses, collecting wine, recommended books and magazines, purchasing wine (retail and auctions), and less expensive wine choices.
Students must be 21 years or older and must provide proof of age at the beginning of the class. For more information or to register, please visit scps.nyu.edu/ce/finewine or call
(212) 998-7200.

It might not look like it, but this isn't a classic Vespa, it's a new model for 2011. Word is, it'll be equipped with a hand gear change and a two-stroke engine, basically, it'll be the engaging, exciting Vespa of old, targeted at the hardcore of scooter enthusiasts.
Modern Vespas are, unequivocally, wonderful. They're convenient, frugal and flatter anyone, anywhere. They're even amazingly good fun to ride; sort of like "with great power, comes great responsibility" turned upside down. Having said that, somewhere in all their modern efficiency, Vespas have lost their quirk. This won't matter to 99 percent of the world, but if you've ever ridden an older hand shift, two-stroke Vespa, it matters to you.
With this model — we're currently unsure of the capacity, it's not due to be unveiled till tomorrow — Vespa is returning some of the character that's currently missing. Powerbands, pre-mix, gear shifts clouds of blue smoke will again be a part of the scooter experience. Note the right-side trailing-link front suspension that offers a further visual differentiation and nod towards older models.
Apparently, the decision to release such a model was not an easy one for Vespa's parent company, Piaggio, who sees it as a loss of face after it pulled all two-stroke/hand-shift models from the market in an effort to clean up its image. We hope that, instead of seeing the PX as a reminder of a past mistake, Piaggio will instead see that finding a way to create a product that appeals to fans of classic scooters can be enormously positive, re-engaging an alienated group of scooter enthusiasts with the brand in its modern form.
We've also heard rumors that this 2011 Vespa PX isn't currently planned for the US market, but could find its way here if sufficient interest is shown by dealers and the public.

So you liked a trailer or a video for a game, but you don't think the game deserves its own thread. Or you just can't be bothered to write up a post for it, you simply just liked that video. Then post the video you found interesting here. Trailers, gameplay footage, reviews, anything in video format about a game. If it's popular, i'll request it be pinned.
OK I'll go first (obviously).
Game is called Knights Contract. The trailer looked pretty cool imo.
And the new Medal Of Honor, which i think look ace.
Anyone seen any cool looking trailers recently?

Oh, good one. The "you're on the internet so you must have no life" insult isn't moronic or unoriginal at all. You must, without a doubt, be a very important member of society, not at all a waste of the already barely valuable gift of life.
As is the case for everyone who takes issue with people who make them sad on the internet, you are one of two kinds of people:
You are exactly what you claim I am, and that is a lonely, pathetic basement dweller. You life is spent eating eight pounds of junk food per day, masturbating to anything you find online that's even remotely feminine, and wishing you had good looks and social skills. You continue to live with your mother until she dies of a combination of lung cancer and liver failure brought on by the chain-smoking and heavy drinking she used to cope with what a failure you are. Your mother mercifully dead and free of the living embodiment of failure she regretfully thrust from her loins, the bills start to pile up and you, unemployed and unable to pay these bills (of course), lose the house and everything in it. Somehow even more of a failure than you already were, you wander from place to place eating out of dumpsters and sleeping in your own filth until you finally die of AIDS, which you contracted from a diseased whore you scrounged up enough money to pay for, so you could finally lose your virginity while at the same time pretending that your mother was back in your life.
You are the type who was an athlete in high school, who was genetically doomed to be an idiot but managed to finish school and even get a college scholarship because you were so good at a worthless children's game. You went off to college with a suitcase full of polo shirts and condoms, the polo shirts, because you're a douche, and the condoms to prevent you from impregnating the dim-witted young college girls whom you could never touch without the aid of Rohypnol, a drug you refer to as "roofies" because you can neither spell or pronounce Rohypnol. You scrape by with borderline D's for the next four years, and leave the campus to go out into the real world where your realize you're not intelligent or talented enough to do anything of value with your life. Misery and minimum wage ensues for thirty years, then you blow your brains out, and your corpse, alone and forgotten, is not discovered until the smell of rotting flesh seeps under your door and your bodily fluids finally soak through the floor of your studio apartment and into the room below you. Your body is cremated, the ashes scraped into a garbage bin because there was no one in your life who valued you enough to pay for a casket, funeral, or burial plot.
You're undoubtedly one of the two, otherwise you would have better things to do than complain about the theme of a forum that doesn't care about anything you have to say.

text: Home > News and Events > Club Blog > The Skye is alive Search the Club Blog When The Skye is alive It's almost difficult to comprehend the beauty and splendour of Skye Club Site. Situated on the gentle flowing shores of Loch Greshornish, the award-wining site is among one of the prettiest I've ever visited. For my money there's nothing better than waking up in the morning and enjoying the sound of trickling water lapping at the shore that is simply a mere stones throw from the campsite. A gentle stroll along the dog walk is certainly a must as it offers stunning views across the intertwined tapestry of rolling mountains and lush green countryside. The shop on-site offers a wealthy array of camping treats and both Franchisees Nicky and David ensure a warm welcome is guaranteed for all. During my stay at the site, I had the pleasure of speaking to fellow members about their thoughts on the breathtaking view before them. Each one held the same opinion and it was one that matched my own. You'd have to travel a long way to find a better view to wake-up to each morning. I know that other sites offer great views but this is the best one I've camped at. I guess there really is no better way to get back to nature and enjoy the solitude of the great outdoors than by going on a camping and caravanning holiday.

Holiday Dining

As the holidays approach, everyone's looking for restaurants that offer a warm embrace. Luckily, we've got some suggestions. The havens in our slideshow serve familiar favorites and unusual twists, made with love and gusto. Many have fireplaces or wood-burning ovens, and all of them aim to fill you and yours with gladness.

I've noticed if you hit the Select All checkbox in Zimbra, if you right click on any email the "Mark Read" will be grayed out if there's even one already read email in the list, yet even if there's unread emails you can select "Mark Unread" which will mark them all unread.
This holds true even if you manually select the emails and add even one previously read email to your list. Sometimes I won't read the emails (not that critical etc) but I don't want to delete it either just incase, but I hate seeing say 157 new/unread emails in my inbox. It would be great if I could hit the "Select All" and then right click on any one email and hit 'Mark Read' and have all the messages marked as read. If it can be done with 'Mark Unread', why can't it be done with 'Mark Read'?
Also, just clicking each message to make it report as being read isn't a practical option as some nested messages may go 25 deep and only 1 within that group is "Unread" etc.
Anyhow, just a suggestion (that I really wish can be implemented)

Don't worry though, we have a lot more Travel Cases in stock than that.View Similar Products
Pika Packworks EEP 29er Bike Case $0.00
There aren't many bag companies that can claim they've been manufacturing cycling-specific travel bags as long as Pika Packworks. Since '94, they've been producing air-travel cycling bags for some of the world's top racing teams. There also aren't many companies that can claim their products are manufactured in a Green Building, in the USA, with 85% of materials and fabric sourced and manufactured from domestic suppliers. Pika's a unique company, with equally unique products like the EEP 29er Bike Case.
It shouldn't surprise you that Pika is one of the few bike case manufactures to offer a 29er-specific bag. In the owner's eclectic bike stable lays a very early Willits from the infamous Wes Williams -- who can be considered one of the true 29er pioneers. The EEP 29er Bike case is Pika's largest offering to accommodate mountain biking's largest wheels.
Called an Exercise Equipment Pack (EEP) to help avoid excessive airline bicycle charges, if you can get away with it, the packs are designed first and foremost to protect your two-wheeled investment. The packable foam and nylon structure is easy to transport and stow when you reach your destination. The EEP is made from black 1000-denier Cordura nylon, with foam padded walls.
It makes smart use of pockets to store the items that you remove from the bike for the storage setup; each wheel has its own padded pocket on either side of the bike, and smaller pockets will hold your saddle/seatpost, skewers, etc. Your bike frame is supported by the bottom bracket on a custom crafted foam block arrangement on the bike cradle that nestles down into the bag.
The interior is lined with contrasting yellow nylon. The bright color makes it easy to see down into its depths when you find yourself missing a skewer spring or seatpost binder bolt. Pika Packworks includes custom toptube/handlebar pads with built-in straps to secure your disassembled steering controls and a padded rear derailleur bag with a strap to secure it to the rear triangle should it need to be removed.
Be aware that this bag will normally accept bikes with wheelbases up to 49 inches, though packing bikes of this size will necessitate removal of the front caliper and rear derailleur, and will require that the fork be turned around backwards. It can accommodate a max height of 31 inches. If your front end is too long, you can let preload air out and compress the fork for a lower profile.
In keeping with the bombproof materials, the EEP has tough, nylon web straps sewn around its periphery in three dimensions, with buckles to make the closure redundant. They also include a padded shoulder strap with a generous thickness and width. It makes carrying the EEP no big deal. The pull handles on the burly YKK zipper can be locked together with a TSA approved travel lock for extra security for your toys.
The Pika Packworks EEP 29er Bike Case lacks any logos or language that could indicate to you're carrying a bike, so if you plan to travel with a 'drum kit' or a 'tuba' you'll perhaps be able to avoid specialty item fees.

Cool mornings and seasonable afternoons are on-tap for Florida State-Florida Week (also Thanksgiving Week)!
Starting out today in the low and mid 40s... plenty of sunshine will warm it up into the low and mid 70s. More clear tonight, means more cool, more low and mid 40s. Clouds increase a bit Tuesday/Wednesday. Mid 70s for Tuesday's highs, upper 40s to lower 50s Wednesday morning, and IF we are going to see any sprinkles this week, Wednesday morning is our best shot (but that's a slim chance too)...
Thanksgiving looks NICE. 40s to start, 70s in the afternoon, mostly sunny. Same story for Black Friday. Gameday Saturday looks a little more cloudy, but should be dry and seasonable... temps climbing to around 70 at kickoff...
There's always more weather and other fun on Facebook and Twitter... find us there too!!!

CAMERON - The Cameron boys had one thing on their minds when they came to play their final game on Dragon's Court: Send out the old gym with a bang.
The team did just that as the Dragons blasted Paden City, 80-46, in front of what looked like the entire town of Cameron on Wednesday night.
''We weren't going to come in and lay an egg tonight,'' Cameron coach Chad Clutter said. ''We put a lot of the pride on those kids' shoulders. There was a lot of points scored in this gym (Wednesday night). Then, on top of that, we had (West Liberty basketball coaches) Lynn Ullom and Jim Crutchfield in the crowd. We had some legends here tonight that came to watch them play, and I think they appreciated it. They felt that sense of pride and just rolled with it.''
Article Photos
Cameron's Shane Williams (20) goes for a layup while being guarded by Paden City's Logan Carroll (33) during Wednesday night's game.
The Dragons were so hot, they shot the lights out. Literally. With 4:34 to go in the final quarter, half the lights in the gymnasium went dim.
''I think it was Cameron just trying to let everyone know that we just wanted to hold onto this moment for a little bit,'' Clutter said. ''Let everyone take a deep breath and think. It was the most people we've had in a ball game for a long time. We hope the noise can stay like this for the rest of the season.''
The Dragons (8-6) raced out to an early 11-0 lead fueled by senior Mark Walker, who scored seven of the game's first nine points.
By the end of the first quarter, Cameron was already ahead by 21 points and stretched the margin to 28 at halftime, 39-11.
Midway through the third, a Walker conventional 3-point play put the hosts ahead by 35 as the Dragons coasted to the finish line.
Walker, who will be attending WVU in the fall to pursue a career in athletic training, was hotter than a dragon's breathe the entire game as he finished with 32 points behind a sizzling five 3-pointers.
The senior also chipped in six assists and six steals.
''He had a phenomenal night,'' Clutter said. ''I couldn't believe there was a few times they left him opened, but he made them pay for it. If you give him 5 feet of space, he's going to beat you. He's that type of player. He played a really complete ball game.''
Zach Hall finished with 12 points to go with 10 rebounds, while Ryan Clutter had 12 points, six rebounds and six steals.
Logan Routt added eight blocks - five in the first quarter - eight rebounds and four points for the Dragons.
''All of our players played within their element and played team basketball,'' Clutter said. ''Nobody came out to show off and that really allowed us to get the big lead in the beginning.
''It was really nice to come out against a team that has won 10 games and be able to beat them as handily as we did.''
So where does the victory rank among the greatest games played on Dragon's Court?
''It's definitely in my top three, maybe even in the top two,'' Clutter said. ''There was a girls' game here against Valley that we won 79-70. Amanda Allison beat the school record in scoring in that game. Valley was ranked No. 1 that year; they were really good. But if this one isn't No. 1, then those two are right there.''
For Fred King and the Wildcats (10-5), the game was truly like walking into a dragon's den.
''The worse case possible that my young team could be put in, was put in,'' King said. ''But I told them we could get better by playing that kind of team in this kind of environment. You're either going to grow up and be a man tonight or you're going to get drilled.
''In the second half, I thought we did some nice things, once we got our feet on the floor. The first three minutes of the ball game, I don't even think we saw the basket. We just saw white jerseys flying past us.
''We tested out the guillotine to see if it was sharp enough. Guess what? It was.''
Though there have been many victories in the 58 years of the old gym, the Dragons decided to celebrate this one a little differently.
''After we shook hands, we went right back out to center court,'' Clutter said. ''Usually we'll go down to the locker room, but I just did my postgame talk right there.
''During senior night, we had everybody that played or coached or had any involvement in the athletics here come out on the court and come together. We did the 1, 2, 3 ... dragons, and we ended it that way. The kids were real pleased to get out there and look down at that dragon one last time. We're just moving on in our chapter.''

Star Wars Pillows
The Star Wars universe is still expanding. it's no surprise that the Star Wars franchise is as popular as ever--considering the on going care that Lucas and company provide in the marketing, and merchandising of the iconic SW trademark characters. Iconic Characters are the core of this super nova success, characters we all relate to, some remind us of ourselves, or people we know, others are classic heros, villains, and adventurers who's day-to-day life ignite our fantasies, Lucas understood this when the first Star Wars toys where issued. For those who share this passion for Star Wars (and are not collectors of toys), "Star Wars Pillows" may be the thing that scratches that interstellar consumer drive. They look both high-design, and low brow, which means they will look cool in a variety of places, on design chairs, in beautiful lofts, or on a milk crate in an alleyway. On a personal note, Iv's seen something like this done with members of the legendary rock band KISS--it turned out really well. Someone might think about expanding on this idea eh?

Goodguys Car Show - 7th Annual Goodguys spring NationalsWritten by on May 30, 2007 Open Season Kicks Off In Del Mar
Back in grade school, as each passing summer was about to come to an end, I'd always get this certain feeling in my gut. It was a mix between eager anticipation and imminent fear of what lay before me: the new school year. The percentage ratio between the two depended on my age-the younger I was, the more I dreaded donning the new duds my mom had so kindly outfitted me with, not to mention discovering what teacher would control my life for the next 10 or so months; but as I grew older, I became more eager to put the surfboard back in the closet and begin the new semester.
These days, while my school years are ancient history, I still get those same "annual" mixed feelings. No, I'm not talking about tax time (though it is very close to that wonderful April 15th deadline), but rather when the swallows start checking out of the old missions in San Juan Capistrano...or shall we say Del Mar? OK, maybe not, but it's precisely that time of year when the Goodguys stage their Spring Nationals that I begin to feel like a schoolboy all over again. Whether it's the anticipation of the season's first outdoor event (for me, at least) or a slight bit of regret knowing I'll be covering, not attending, yet another summer's worth of cool events, I'll never know. But one thing I do know is that I've enjoyed each and every Del Mar show, regardless if I've been on the clock or not.
This year was no exception. Despite having a non-cargo-carrying vehicle entered in the show (I drove my '53 Bel Air) and needing to split time between "participant" and "media," I was nonetheless surrounded by tons of beautiful trucks and even more hot rods and customs. Furthermore, unlike years prior, not a drop of rain fell the entire weekend-well, at least none that I was aware of-and even the occasional fog that came out of nowhere (and usually disappeared just as quickly) was outshined by the sunny, cool ocean air that consumed the majority of each day.
Finally, the 2007 Del Mar Spring Nationals was also the debut event for CLASSIC TRUCKS' new award program-the Finest Five. Years past, we selected 10 trucks (hence the Top Ten moniker) at various Goodguys events throughout the season. This year, we scaled it down to five and gave it the obvious name change, but the rest is all the same: each chosen winner will receive an embroidered jacket, which they can proudly wear to proclaim their Finest Five status. The only drawback is, due to ordering limitations, it might take longer than the standard 6-8 weeks, so hold your horses if you happen to be one of the chosen few. (Past Top Ten winners will attest to the rather long waiting period-our sincere apologies!) Along with Del Mar, we'll also be making picks at Goodguys' Heartland Nats in Des Moines, July 6-8; The Nationals in Columbus, July 13-15; the Midwestern Nats in Kansas City, Aug. 31-Sep. 2; the Lone Star Nats in Fort Worth, Oct. 5-7; and wrapping up with the Southeastern Nats in North Carolina, Oct. 26-28. For further event info, please visit www.good-guys.com. Hopefully, we'll catch you at one of these shows-and maybe even send you home with a little token of our "appreciation!"
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Of all the things the Goodguys Del Mar event has to offer, you won't experience any barriers-young and old, retro and modern, everyone and every style of vehicle blends together in unison.You may remember Danny Hernandez's '53 Chevy Suburban from the Feb. '06 issue. We caught him cruising the fairgrounds this past spring, his heavy hauler still lookin' fine as can be.Roadster pickups are classic trucks, too, right? We sure think so, though we might not be so apt to haul much other than our own butts in something as nice as this!Years ago, Fat Jack Robinson built this '56 F-100 that became the first classic truck to ever grace the cover of Hot Rod. To this day, the truck looks as good as it did then, and with the addition of the 18- and 20-inch Coddington Smoothie IIs, you'd be hard-pressed to tell just how long ago it was actually finished.If you're looking for the ultimate drop, look no further than GO-EZ Customs in Placentia, CA. Self-proclaimed as the number-one "Asphalt Assault Vehicle" experts, if Chris Governo's '65 Chevy is any indication, that might just be true.Classic Trucks Finest Five 2007<br />Another feature-to-be, Mark McDonald's '69 GMC hails from Porterville, CA, just north of Bakersfield. He and Mike Fusco came down to Del Mar together with their families; they both went home Finest Five award recipients.Note that Mark's truck wears the same wheels as the Fat Jack Effie, but with a satin powdercoat job that makes a world of difference.
Del Mar was the inaugural event for CLASSIC TRUCKS' revamped award program, dubbed the Finest Five for 2007. Appropriately enough, it was also the West Coast debut for Jim Stach's '59 Chevy Apache built by Zoomers Automotive Garage in Denver, CO. Stay tuned till next month for a full-color feature on this Truck of the Year finalist.From Apple Valley, CA, Dave Patterson told us this was the unveiling of his fresh '37 Chevy. Not only did Dave earn himself a Finest Five for his efforts, but a Boyd's Pro's Pick as well.As previously mentioned, Mike Fusco made the trek south to Del Mar with fellow award-winner Mark McDonald. While Mark's GMC was stunning nonetheless, Mike's '70 Blazer is an exercise in full-custom modifications, from top to bottom, inside and out. Look for a feature on this beauty soon.You don't see too many early '70s Rancheros these days, and few as clean as John Gailey's fully loaded '71 GT from Carlsbad, CA. Sweet.Shari Lee and Gordon Douglas show how much potential a '72 GMC Suburban has, and then some. The ghost flame custom paint (by Foreign Auto Body) is complemented by a leather interior job by Gabe's Custom Upholstery.Mike Brattland's '38 Willys pickup from El Cajon, CA, is a mean li'l mother with a big-block Ford stuffed under the hood and a four-speed backing it up.We understand that people like to show off every square inch of their pride and joy, despite how that may affect pictures taken by people like us. But despite that fact, we also know to keep our hands off other people's property, so you'll never catch us shutting doors or closing hoods without the owner's permission!And speaking of few and far between, how about a shortbox Power Wagon? We can just picture this with three less lugs, one less drive axle, and about a yard closer to the ground.
