The new option to preview email content in a vertically oriented preview pane is an excellent addition.
"Users can select to view their mailbox in a with the Navigation pane on the left, the Content pane second, and the Reading pane on the right. This view option is enabled from the View link on the toolbar."
Anyone who uses the preview pane and has a wide screen monitor now has a way to logically orient their layout, maximizing the use of space. (I have no idea why anyone would even want a horizontal preview pane, but I digress...)
...As I was saying, this new vertical orientation is a great addition, however, for some reason, once you choose this view, your reading pane (the second pane containing your list of messages, all of a sudden reverts to some completely useless formatting with no option to change this without going back to the horizontal layout. Why? There is no reason to automatically change this formatting.
I have PLENTY of space! I have a widescreen lcd monitor which has lots and LOTS AND LOTS of space, as does anyone else who has purchased a new computer in the last few years. I am saying this because, I can only imagine that the reason behind this was some sort of misconceived user requirement. No! There is no such user requirement, I like the reading pane the way it was in the horizontal view, and in the view where the preview panel is turned off.
The reason I require a vertical layout is because I want to maximize the amount of information available on one screen, I do not need to have a "mini-preview" now that I have a FULL PREVIEW in the pane to the right.
Is there anyway to make the formatting in the reading pane the same for all views, including the vertical three pane layout?

Silver Springs man, 22, accused of making meth
Published: Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 4:14 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 4:14 p.m.
SILVER SPRINGS - Looking for a wanted person, sheriff's officials ended up arresting a 22-year-old Silver Springs man on charges of manufacturing meth and possession of drug paraphernalia.
A deputy in the Fugitive Apprehension Unit went to a home in Silver Springs in search of a wanted individual, according to the Sheriff's Office. While looking in the residence, the deputy detected a chemical smell.
The deputy went outside and called the United Drug Enforcement Strike Team. In a bedroom, officials reported finding what appeared to be products used to make meth, along with the strong odor of a solvent.
They obtained a search warrant for the room and found camp fuel, crystal drain opener, salt, coffee filters and other products commonly used to make meth. They also found were several syringes that tested positive for meth, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Logistics technology: New UPS offerings focus on import control for shippers
June 08, 2010
UPS has rolled out enhancements for various proprietary technology offerings that it said simplify the use of multiple transportation modes and give importers more control over shipments.
Among the new enhancements is UPS Import Control, a new functionality available next month that allows importers to process an import shipment though UPS-based CampusShip or Internet Shipping via ups.com. UPS said this will enable importers to use either application to have control over inbound logistics costs in the hands of the importer rather than the exporter, as well as generate shipping labels and commercial invoices for a small package.
UPS officials added that CampusShip—like WorldShip and Internet Shipping—will also be able to process air freight shipments and less-than-truckload shipments. UPS also announced that its Web-based Quantum View Manage tool now provides shippers with enhanced visibility for air, ocean, and LTL shipments, and its UPS Paperless Invoice is available via self-enrollment from UPS.com
UPS New Product Development Manager John Slayton said in an interview that this news is the result of customer feedback to a large degree.
"We had customers telling us that importing could be difficult, and they…wanted the ability to be more involved in the process of having a shipment prepared or a say in the service level that was used, and the date a shipment was going to be shipped by their exporter," he said. "They wanted more involvement and control."
While UPS has many customers using its services for small packages as well as freight, Slayton said some customers using its systems like CampusShip, which has been in place for small package shipments and for customers that wanted to do air freight shipments and utilize CampusShip in an office environment, were looking for a way to integrate that.
How it works: When asked how UPS Import Control works, Slayton gave an example of a U.S.-based shipper doing business in China. If the shipper placed an order with the Chinese manufacturer and had deemed UPS was the company he wanted to use, he would then select the most appropriate distribution option to meet his company's needs, using four days as an example.
"I would also want to make sure as I negotiate the purchase that my supplier has told me my order would fit in two boxes," said Slayton. "Now I can go use UPS Internet Shipping or CampusShip and physically process the order, like if I was doing an outbound order. Now, I would process an import, and I would enter in my supplier [and shipping specifications] and I would process that. I would also ensure that the Customs invoice for international shipments is properly filled out, with a full description, country or origin, and go ahead and complete that invoice documentation."
When that process is finalized in an instruction sheet and the labels and commercial invoice are all sent electronically via e-mail in an instruction sheet, the order is filled, a label is placed on the package, followed by the shipper contacting UPS for pickup or arranging for a pickup, with the package tendered to UPS.

Audrey's Artist to Watch | Ryan Wang, 5-year-old Piano Prodigy
Posted By Ethel Navales On July 2, 2013 @ 6:46 pm In Pop Culture | Comments Disabled
At the age of five, most of us were learning how to properly write out the alphabet, play duck-duck-goose, and strategically avoid getting cooties. Ryan Wang on the other hand? This five-year-old piano prodigy was spending his days getting ready for his performance in New York's prestigious Carnegie Hall.
At the age of three, Wang's parents noticed Ryan's affinity and natural ability with the keyboard. Without missing a beat, the two decided to send him to piano lessons. While many people would assume that three is far too young an age to adequately master an instrument, Ryan's talent proved everyone wrong. After a mere year and half of lessons, a prodigy was created. Of course, Carnegie Hall was not the only one to notice this amazing 5-year-old. Ellen Degeneres asked him to come onto the Ellen Show and dazzle her viewers. Clearly, Ryan didn't disappoint:
Even more recently, CBC Music Studio invited Ryan to perform in front of his biggest fan, Dorothy. The 101-year-old family friend was touched to discover that Ryan would be performing just for her. Not only does Wang prove to be mature in his musical abilities, he showed quite a bit of emotional maturity. Understanding how important this performance was to Dorothy, Ryan was moved to tears (and brought us all to tears while he was at it):
Easily becoming a prodigy favorite, Ryan Wang is scheduled to tour Italy and China this summer. Be sure to keep an eye out for this amazingly talented young man.

Second chances don't come around that often. You have to make the most of a do-over, especially when the stakes are high.
The reopening of the management plan for the Roan Plateau is one of those rare opportunities for a fresh start.
The second chance for the area that features important habitat for some of the country's largest elk and mule deer herds and genetically pure cutthroat trout is due to U.S. District Judge Marcia Krieger. She ruled last year that the Bureau of Land Management failed to consider more protective alternatives when it approved a plan for drilling up to approximately 1,500 natural gas wells over 20 years without adequately analyzing the cumulative impacts on air quality in the region.
The BLM can make the most of this second chance by making the Roan a showcase for thoughtful, balanced management. To do that, it must direct development by considering the potential effects on fish, wildlife, air, water, unspoiled backcountry and rare plants. It needs to consider input from all stakeholders and adopt a truly balanced plan.
In 2008, when the BLM announced the final plan for the Roan, they called it "one of the most environmentally sensitive plans'' the agency had ever produced for oil and gas development. But provisions to protect the surface in environmentally sensitive areas had holes big enough for 18-wheelers to drive through.
The BLM's analysis was based on 210 wells on the top of the Roan Plateau, while industry projected as many as 3,000 wells. The reality of drilling 15 times as many wells as that was analyzed makes any protections that might have looked good on paper meaningless.
Defining "balance" isn't easy, but allowing development to spread across all of the Roan isn't it. More than 85 percent of federally managed natural gas in the Uinta-Piceance Basin is already open for leasing. Half the Roan Plateau planning area is already leased or owned by industry. Development has been occurring and will continue on the Roan for a long time. The question is whether any trout and wildlife habitat will remain once the gas is gone.
If the next generation of hunters and anglers is going to be able to experience the Roan Plateau's above-ground riches, undisturbed big game habitat on top and at the base shouldn't be developed; migration corridors must remain intact and undisturbed; no new roads, well pads or pipelines should be located in cutthroat trout drainages; state-of-the-art drilling operations must be required and the BLM should retain the right to cancel any or all leases.
The Roan Plateau and surrounding lands provide some of the region's best fish and wildlife habitat. Surely we can conserve this important cornerstone of our western Colorado economy built on hunting, fishing and recreation.
We have a second chance. It might just be our last. This time, let's make sure the BLM gets it right.
Bob Meulengracht works for Trout Unlimited as the Colorado coordinator for Sportsmen for Responsible Energy Development.

Woman charged with burglary and grand theft
Published: Tuesday, July 16, 2013 at 4:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 16, 2013 at 4:24 p.m.
A woman stopped for a minor traffic infraction Monday was arrested on burglary and grand theft charges, and for not having a valid driver's license.
An Ocala Police Department officer saw a silver four-door Mercedes run a stop sign at Southeast Watula Avenue and Southeast Fort King Street and conducted a traffic stop. The driver, Sabrina Fesel, 32, told the officer she did not have a driver's license. A check revealed her license has been suspended four times since 2003.
OPD property crimes detectives were on the lookout for the Mercedes, which had been seen leaving the scene of a burglary last month. They searched the vehicle and found some of the items that had been reported stolen, according to reports.
Fesel told the detectives she could give them more stolen items, the report added.
Officials said they believe Fesel participated in burglaries in June in the 1000 block of Southeast Fort King Street and the 1700 block of Northeast 42nd Avenue, where more than $30,000 worth of goods – such as laptops, hair products, chairs, tables and other accessories – were reported stolen.
The investigation is ongoing, officials said.
Fesel remained at the Marion County Jail late Tuesday on bonds totaling $23,000.

Baltimore County News
Janette Harris, Adopt-A-Road Coordinator
Bureau of Highways
My favorite road signs sometimes get lost in the clutter of billboards and stop signs and No Parking signs. But a lot of people do notice them because Adopt-a-Road signs mean something nice. They mean that roadsides are being kept neat and clean by people who care. This is important for maintaining good communities in Baltimore County and a rewarding part of my job in the Department of Public Works. You see, I'm the Adopt-A-Road-lady!
The Adopt-A-Road program began almost twenty years ago and has grown steadily. In the first years from its inception, 65 groups from all over the County had signed up to pick up trash along roads and help Bureau of Highways get the job done. We never lost the momentum and today 365 roads have been adopted by a wide variety of public-spirited organizations: schools, church groups, civic organizations – just about anybody who wants to make a difference.
It's easy to join the Adopt-A-Road program. A group must make the commitment to pick up roadside trash on a regular basis and to abide by a few, simple safety rules. My program gives people an opportunity to help maintain their community by authorizing them to clean up certain streets. It also gives high school students some of the community service time needed to graduate.
Groups apply to participate – the paperwork is simple. Then we give them safety training and hand over basic cleanup equipment with a set of rules to follow. Groups must clean up the area at least four times a year and, of course, everyone must follow all safety rules. Safety is job one! The adoption period lasts two years, but it's renewable.
In exchange for committing their time, the Bureau of Traffic Engineering puts up a sign announcing that a particular road has been adopted by the organization, and the County provides and collects the trash bags.
The Adopt-A-Road program costs taxpayers very little. In fact, it comes out to less than fifteen dollars a road. For the price of a few of cups of coffee, everyone benefits. Such a deal!

TUCSON, Arizona (VN) — New power meters from Quarq, new wheels from Zipp, and some sleek aero bars were all on the menu at SRAM's latest launch, taking place this week at the base of Tucson's Gates Pass. The spread was varied, ranging from a strengthening of the brand's top-tier, go-fast products to a refreshing re-think of versatile, mid-range items.
Quarq outlined the details of its new Elsa and Riken power meters, which are set at price points $500 apart and are intended for non-Yaw front derailleurs. The Elsa looks to extend Quarq's range further into the top end of the market, while the Riken gives up a few features and a bit of weight to keep its price 25 percent lower.
Zipp Speed Weaponry launched three wheelsets, two of which are tailored for the budget-minded rider, the Zipp 30 and 60, as well as a new version of the 404 designed to appeal to the smaller rider.
Quarq Elsa and Riken power meters
Quarq is streamlining its product line for 2013 with two new power meters, the flagship Elsa 10R, and entry level Riken 10R. Both power meters come with SRAM carbon crank arms, but the Elsa uses top-of-the-line Exogram arms, which help the Elsa save enough weight to make it lighter than the SRAM Red Quarq, which is the same price as the Elsa, at $1,995.
Both the Elsa and Riken are ANT+ equipped and use Omnical, which allows the user to swap chainrings without sending in the unit to be recalibrated. The Elsa also measures "Power Balance," which is a metric that computes the forces of each crank arm based on cadence — a slightly imperfect measurement, but a neat one nonetheless.
While the Elsa weighs less and costs the same as the SRAM Red Quarq, Quarq marketing director Troy Hoskin pointed out that the Elsa is not intended for use with the Yaw front shifting of Red 2012. Hoskin said that the Elsa and the Riken are intended to be used with any non-Red 2012 10-speed drivetrain. The simple graphics of the Riken and the Elsa allow them to look at home on any bike, regardless of build.
At $1,595, the Riken 10R is the least expensive Quarq in the lineup, which includes the Cannondale Si and Specialized OSBB models in addition to the Red version. Quarq is also planning to discontinue its current mountain bike crank in 2013 for an updated version to be announced down the road.
Zipp 30 wheelset
The Zipp 30 wheelset is the little brother of the venerable aluminum 101. Taking many of its design cues from the 101, the 30mm-deep wheel is intended to hit a price point that helps riders justify everyday use. Unlike all of Zipp's other rims, which are made in Indiana — including the new Zipp 60 detailed below — the 30 is made in SRAM's Taiwan factory.
While the move of production allows the wheelset to be offered at lower pricing ($850 a pair), it also limits the amount of technology that can be poured into the wheels; most noticeably, Zipp decided against the use of a fully toroidal rim, which we've become accustomed to finding on every Zipp wheel. Instead, the Zipp 30 uses a hybrid toroidal rim shape, which has parallel brake tracks and resembles a light bulb as the inner rim bulges out an extra 0.5mm from the 20mm-wide brake track.
At 1,655 grams for the set, the 30 is no featherweight, even when compared to similarly designed and priced wheelsets such as the Easton EA90 Aero clincher, which is $800 and saves over 100 grams. Zipp claims, however, that the 30 is more aerodynamic than the EA90 and much of the competition — even wheelsets with deeper rims.
The wheels handled descents well on our initial ride. Despite the high overall weight, the hoops didn't ride like anchors; rim weight is kept low, which is noticeable when accelerating on the climbs around Tucson. The 30 wheelset will be available in March.
Zipp 60 wheelset
The Zipp 60 wheelset is clearly a replacement to the now defunct SRAM S60 wheels, with the addition of a dimpled inner carbon rim. The 60 uses the same hubs as the Zipp 30s.
Mechanics will rejoice that Zipp continues to keep spoke nipples on the exterior of the rim, making for easier maintenance. The 60mm rim uses the same hybrid toroidal shape as the 30 and sports parallel brake tracks, much like the Zipp 404 before the introduction of the Firecrest design.
At 1820g a pair, the 60 is undeniably heavy. While the wheels will not make for nimble climbing wheels, the 58mm-deep rims will please triathletes and time trialists seeking an aero wheelset with an aluminum braking surface. The 60 will be available in March.
Zipp 404 650c Firecrest Carbon Clincher
Touted as the "lightest 650 wheel on the market," by SRAM's John Balmer, the new 404 650c is intended to breathe new life into the 650c bike segment. Zipp hopes that offering a 650c version of its popular 404 Firecrest carbon clincher will give bike manufacturers a reason to go back to producing 650c bikes in smaller frame sizes.
The introduction of a high-end 650c wheel is part of Zipp's philosophy that fit is equally vital to overall aerodynamics as equipment, if not more so. This was a theme that Zipp and SRAM employees repeated continuously for the three-day event. Right now, Felt's women's line uses 650c on several models. At 1,465g a pair, racers will likely rejoice at the opportunity to update their wheels as most manufacturers have not offered a high-end 650c wheel in years. The 404 650c will retail for $2,725 and will be available in May.
Zipp Vuka Stealth Aero Bar
Just under a year ago, a Zipp launched the adjustable Vuka Alumina aero bar system at the Sea Otter Classic and this week Zipp upped its game on the high-end side by introducing its Vuka Stealth integrated carbon base bar and stem. The new setup is not only light and aero; it's nearly as adjustable as the Vuka Alumina system.
The Vuka Stealth is 42cm-wide (outside-to-outside) and is offered in three stem lengths, which Zipp has dubbed Short, Medium, and Long. On the underside of the stems, we spotted actual lengths printed: 60mm, 80mm, and 100mm. Additionally, Zipp includes a 10mm spacer that pushes the bar out, providing 70mm, 90mm, and 110mm effective lengths.
Before installing the bar, Zipp insists that buyers consult a professional fitter and verify all measurements. To that end, Zipp is currently in development of an iOS app titled Zipp Fit, which will allow a rider to enter in all of his or her bike measurements. The Zipp Fit app will then tell the rider which bar, riser blocks, and spacers the rider will need to meet the prescribed fit. The app is designed around an iPad and should be ready this spring.
According to Zipp, the Vuka Stealth, which will retail for $1,070, proved just as aero in the wind tunnel as its current Vuka Aero bar, Zipp's UCI-illegal 4:1 system. The Vuka Stealth is 3:1 and even saves some weight compared to the Vuka Aero. When compared to other aerobars on the market, the Vuka Stealth, at 695g claimed weight, is only slightly heavier than bars without integrated stems. Relative to popular setups like the Easton Attack and HED Corsair, the Vuka Stealth also has much more adjustability for the rider to fit the bar to themselves, and not the other way around.
The stack height of the arm pads is highly adjustable with four different: 0mm, 10mm, 25mm, and 50mm. The arm pads can be angled down or up to six degrees in either direction and can be canted toward the center of the bar or out, depending on rider preference. Zipp produces four different carbon extensions: straight, ski-tip, Vuka Race, and Race Vuka Shift. Each extension design will add about 135 grams and will set the rider back another $130.
Beyond being light, adjustable, and eye-catching, the Vuka Stealth is also easy to work on. Shop mechanics everywhere, us included, curse internal cable routing on a daily basis. Zipp has eased the pain with its "Rapid Routing" on the Vuka Stealth bar, and to our pleasant surprise, it actually works. Slide the brake cable housing in and the internal shaping curves the cable toward the bar hoods. It's swear word free, and one might go as far as to describe it is "rapid."

The city of Meridian has again begun work in its latest paving project.
Public works director, Monty Jackson, says the weather has finally cleared and that allows this much-needed work to continue.
The project already brought some attention to 29th Avenue, Davis Street and Valley Street. Friday focused on A Street between 22nd and 26th avenues.
Jackson said about 120 sections of road will be paved in areas all over the city.
"It's something that we need to do on a regular basis," said Jackson. "The last time we had any big paving project was back in 2004-2005. It's just time. Need a lot of money to do a lot of streets."
Jackson said council members came up with lists for each ward, then they were prioritized. Only the ones ranked at the top of the list will be overlaid in this project.

(The Chirp) -- For yet another day, the Cardinals bullpen is ranked last in the league. With a collective ERA of 5.44, a 0-4 record and a WHIP (Hits plus walks allowed divided by innings pitched ((H+W)/IP), of 1.48, the numbers are scary. But the difference between being ranked last on Monday and again on Tuesday, is that optimism may be returning to this unit's future.
Rookie Trevor Rosenthal did his job Monday night, and avoided trouble in the eight inning, with two men on as he was able to sit down the heart of the Nationals line up. But the big story right now is Edward Mujica. Mujica, filling in for Mitchell Boggs as the team's closer by committee right now, pitched a perfect ninth, to solidify the Cardinals win.
So, for now at least, the Cardinals do have an arm they can rely on in the ninth.
In his article this morning for the Daily Stateman, baseball writer Corey Noles takes a look at Mujica and examines if he could be the answer, at least until we know more about Jason Motte's immediate future.
Mujica could be Cardinals' bullpen savior
By COREY NOLES
When it was announced that the St. Louis Cardinals had traded third base prospect Zack Cox to the Miami Marlins for reliever Edward Mujica, it was at best a head scratcher. Now he is quickly becoming another deal where Cardinals General Manager saw a diamond in the rough.
Prior to coming to the Cardinals, Mujica was a home run machine-well, those batting against him were at least. He had quality pitches and put together a sub-3.00 ERA in Miami, but was susceptible to the longball.
For instance, during his two year stint with the San Diego Padres where he pitched in one of the largest ballparks in MLB, he had consecutive 14 home run seasons. Those are hefty numbers for a reliever.
When Mozeliak went after Mujica, he was looking to fill a very specific need-to solidify the Cardinals seventh inning. A quick glance at his numbers show what the front office saw in Mujica.
They saw a solution.
Once he arrived in St. Louis, the Cardinals put him in a position to succeed. The seventh inning was his home and with good reason. In 110 career appearances in the seventh, Mujica boasts a 1.88 ERA and has given up only 32 runs against 320 batters with a 6.91 SO/BB rate.
The seventh inning became his home and what he brought to the team made the difference for the Cardinals.
Without Mujica, the chances of the Cardinals making it to the postseason, let alone the NLCS, are slim at best.
He did his job.
Now, the Cardinals see Mujica as a potential solution to another problem. In the absence of closer Jason Motte, the Cardinals have been looking for a closer to step forward. Mitchell Boggs had his shot, but after two blown saves in four opportunities and 12 ER in 8.2 innings, his chance has passed.
Boggs was highly successful as an 8th inning setup man in 2012, but it didn't translate well into the closer role. Batters hit .351 off of Boggs in his 10 appearances this season. When compared to the .211 average he held batters to over 78 games in 2012, the contrast makes it difficult to argue against moving him away from the ninth.
Boggs is a quality reliever, but his rough start to 2013 has cost the Cardinals three wins so far. In the tighter than ever NL Central, three wins will likely be larger than the margin between first and second place in late September.
Enter Edward Mujica.
In his 3.2 innings as a closer, Mujica has surrendered two hits and no runs. He's 2-for-2 in saves and had a solid 10-pitch ninth against the Washington Nationals on Monday to close out a one-run game.
He seems to be well composed on the mound in the ninth inning and has yet to be seriously shaken. He has good movement on both his fourseam fastball and his splitter.
His splitter, the only other pitch he's thrown in 2013, has been reserved mostly for getting the count back into his favor when the batter is ahead, according to Brooks Baseball.
Coincidentally, it seems to be working since he's drawing called strikes on it a full 50-percent of the time.
Regardless of what he's throwing, they all look nasty and seem to be keeping batters on their toes.
Whether his new found home in the ninth inning is short-term is entirely up to Mujica.
If he owns it, like he has so far, the job will be his.
Of course, the rest of the bullpen has to get him into save situations. While they have struggled early on, if Mujica hangs onto his new role it should give the other arms a better idea of their own day-to-day roles with the club.
With a little luck and a dash of consistency, Mujica closing could help to settle down the rest of the bullpen. The Cardinals need someone to steady the ship and right now Mujica is getting things done.

Thousand Oaks, CA (Sports Network) - The United States Golf Association and
the Royal & Ancient Golf Club announced on Wednesday a proposal to ban
anchored strokes.
At the core of the issue are long putters and belly putters, which have been
used by three of the past five major champions.
Under Wednesday's proposal, long putters and belly putters would not be
banned, just the act of anchoring any club against a player's body during a
Golf's ruling bodies noted that they will take comments from the golf industry
over the next three months, with an expected final decision to come in spring
2013. If the decision is upheld, the ban will go into effect with the next
official update of the Rules of Golf in 2016.
Here is the proposed rule change, which will be listed under Rule 14-1b:
"In making a stroke, the player must not anchor the club, either 'directly' or
by use of an 'anchor point.'
"Note 1: The club is anchored 'directly' when the player intentionally holds
the club or a gripping hand in contact with any part of his body, except that
the player may hold the club or a gripping hand against a hand or forearm.
"Note 2: An 'anchor point' exists when the player intentionally holds a
forearm in contact with any part of his body to establish a gripping hand as a
stable point around which the other hand may swing the club."
More to follow.

You can help save a life
(Page 2 of 2)
If your friend or loved one becomes withdrawn and isolated, it could be a sign that he is contemplating suicide. If he drops out of activities and stops spending time with friends, he could be trying to distance himself before he commits suicide.
There are other signs as well: changes in sleep or eating habits, diminished sex drive, low self-esteem, feelings of hopelessness.
Oddly, a sudden lift of depression can also be a sign that someone is going to kill himself. Sometimes those contemplating suicide get a calm, happy feeling because they've finally made up their minds to do it and believe that their pain is going to end soon.
What you can do
If you suspect that a friend or a loved one is contemplating suicide, there are steps you can take to help her, according to the LICC. If she is showing any of the telltale signs, ask her in a calm and non-confrontational way if she is OK. Listen to her, and be as understanding as possible. If she tells you she's thinking of killing herself, don't act shocked and don't get angry.
Allow her to express her emotions. If that means yelling or crying, let her. Stop her only if she grows violent and tries to hurt herself or others.
Don't, however, try to handle the situation by yourself. Your friend needs the help of a mental health professional. Give her the number of a suicide hotline. Let her know she's not alone and that she can be helped.
And if someone tells you she has plans to kill herself, tell someone who can intervene. That might mean informing her parents or spouse, or even calling the police. If she asks you to keep her plans secret, don't. You can mend a friendship, but there's no coming back from suicide.

text: By Jan SchultzThe Imperial Republican Saying the many leadership roles he's had during his adult life would serve him well as a Nebraska state senator, Dan Hughes of Venango has announced he's running for the 44th District seat. That seat will be up for election in 2014, after current State Sen. Mark Christensen is term-limited out of the position. Hughes, a farmer and small business owner, said it's been a goal for a long time to be a state senator. "I've thought about it many, many election cycles," he said Monday. "The timing is right now." Hughes, a registered Republican, said he isn't going to go into a full-blown campaign now, but just wanted to "put it out now because a lot of people are looking at this race." And, he wants people in the district to know he'd like to do this. "I feel my prior leadership roles as an adult have prepared me well to take on this challenge in Lincoln," he said. His public service began with the Chase/Dundy Wheat Growers Association, eventually working up to president of the Nebraska Wheat Growers Association. He then served on the board of directors of the National Association of Wheat Growers. He currently serves on the Nebraska Wheat Board and is chairman of the U.S. Wheat Associates, the national organization for wheat producing states which promotes U.S. wheat around the world. Citing water, taxes and education as key issues for the district, he puts water at the very top. "Water is a huge issue in this district," he said. Hughes noted it depends on if you're a farmer or not, or an irrigator or not, but water has been proven to have a huge impact in this area. "We have to do all we can to continue to get access to the water, use it wisely and be good stewards of it," he said. Other public service on Hughes' resume includes the Nebraska Ethanol Board, to which he was appointed by then Gov. Ben Nelson; service as a Chase County FSA committeeman; and 12 years on the Grant/Perkins County School board of education. He is a member of the Grant United Methodist Church, the Venango Lions Club, the Nebraska Farm Bureau and the Nebraska Ag Builders Club. Hughes was born and raised in northwest Chase County, and graduated from Venango High School in 1974. After receiving an agriculture degree from Northeastern Junior College in Sterling, Colo., he joined his family's farming operation as a third generation Nebraska ag producer. Today, he is joined in the family operation by his wife of 36 years, Josie, and their adult children, Tyler and Ellen Hughes and Ashley and Tim Colglazier. Their farming operation includes irrigated wheat, corn and pinto beans and dryland wheat, corn and millet. The family operates Hughes Farm Supply, and has a mini-storage business in Grant. Dennis Berry of McCook has also announced his intention to seek the 44th District seat.

Running ZCS 6.0.8 RHEL5 64-bit
I have one user who is constantly getting duplicate address book entries. Several times per day, he will have up to 15 contacts in his address book that are duplicated between 2 and 60 times each. He manually deletes the dups and within a few hours to a day, it happens again. He seems to be happening to the same 15 or so. It doesn't always duplicate all 15 or the same number of times. This has been happening for months and is not the result of a recent upgrade.
He is using a Mac and maintains his address book in the address book on the Mac side (running Connector for Apple iSync 6.0.8). We haven't been able to nail it down to a specific function he does to cause this.
Can someone please lead me in the right direction as to how to resolve this? Is there a log file on the server that I can check to see if a specific address book entry is causing the problem?
Thanks for any help.

Fernando Verdasco is featured on the cover and inside shots in the latest edition of Spanish Men's Health.
I'm not sure what the actual story is about but I imagine it has something to do with the Aussie Open semifinalist's nutrition, game, fitness, blah blah blah. I mean, it is Men's Health now.
But really, who needs silly words when you have a body to look at like Nando's. Plus, we get to see how he keeps that hair from never EVER moving. Seriously, isn't it about time to retire the mountains of gel AND the up-do, faux hawk mess? Me thinks so.
Anyway, prepare to drool...

But I don't like the last one, to posy. And he has a dirty look in his eyes or something ;)
Totes agree! They're all really hot, but the last one is just plain cheesy and makes me very uncomfortable, and not in a good way.ReplyDelete
It is weird though that on the cover he looks like he's sucking his belly in, which apparently is not necessary, as the other photos prove oh so explicitly. o_O

he is kind of hot, yes, but the last photo is a classic case of tennis player trying for the model pose/look. the end result is just sad. do you hear me, maria and ana?ReplyDelete
Our wedding's definitely off. He just creeps me out, and makes me laugh AT him. I can't look at a hot body with a parrot head on top and pure arrogance in the eyes.

Funny! :p
Sorry Rich, I can't just focus on the body only. He has no sex appeal for me. There are men on the tour who can ooze sex and hotness without ever taking off their shirt(ex. Marat Safin.) If the guy has to take off his shirt to exude any type of hotness, then that's a problem for me.
Yeah, yeah, I know. I'm a party pooper! lol

Don't look at the face and def don't look at the hair (it's blinding from all the gel anyway). just the body.ReplyDelete
LOL. i don't know, i may be blind or something but i really don't find him hot, sorry. i saw his match against rafa (it was a good one, btw) but really, i just don't find him goodlooking. i'll take felo anytime, heh.

MUY CALIENTE!! Sorry, I think Tabasco is SEXY and I want his hot sauce.ReplyDelete
Charlie, to describe Rafa as "cute, nice butt" is like the understatement of the year. LOLReplyDelete
I'd take all the other adjectives of your post and move it over to Rafa, too. Hehe.
As for Fer, I don't usually have the hots for him either. These photos are pretty good (minus the coat one), but most of times he's a real turn-off for me.
I guess it's the parrot combined with all the grimacing on-court.

Good idea for a challenge. I see these types of things in a lot of books, like history books and atlases.
Yes, this seems like a fairly fun challenge
I would not be interested in this challenge.
I would like to see a map that has a before and after stage.
A building before and after it's been put to the torch.
A small village sacked or overgrown after being deserted.
A small natural cave carved into a keep.
A castle to ruins
A dry area before and after being flooded.
A settlement or camp that becomes a small town.
The basic idea is that an adventuring party sees a place, then many years later have a reason to revisit it and the changes that would make it a new experience.
Good idea for a challenge. I see these types of things in a lot of books, like history books and atlases.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

I think this is a really cool idea. Lots of room to flex the imagination too.
Why not allow more than just two stages? for example, one could make a series of maps showing the changes of political borders in an area over a timeline. Or one could show many stages on the development of a settlement: starting with a tiny hamlet, growing into a village, then a town, a city and a bustling metropolis - perhaps undergoing setbacks, periods of stagnation, etc along the way.
I like the idea... I did something on this order when we had the siege map contest several months ago. Mine was the progression of the battle over the course of the day.

Ooooooh, this sounds like it could be an interesting one. I'm already seeing where I might go with something like this, assuming I would have time to work on it with everything else that's going on.
Ya got my vote.

I have to post this, as it is probably the most hilarious "passage of time" map I've ever seen. It's from a finnish comic strip called Fingerpori. Too bad I coudn't find a higher resolution version. The language is also finnish :S, but I'll translate some of the location names, so that also you understand why it makes me smile
1st one = 1803, 2nd = "today"
Köyhien maakuoppa = The poor people's pit
Venäjä = Russia
Kela = Social Insurance Institution
Kartanoita = Mansions
Tori = Marketplace
Huoria = Whores
Toksiset suot = Toxic swamps
Taikametsä = Magical forest
There's couple of other names, but you'll brobably figure them out / know them already.

Never have done it. But I recall in cameron hanes book he mentioned the benefits of a mountain bike. Seems like a solid method if you get it dialed pre-season.
Never have done it. But I recall in cameron hanes book he mentioned the benefits of a mountain bike. Seems like a solid method if you get it dialed pre-season.
I've seen guys do it with trailers on them (looked like child carriers). I'd wear bright colors.
Thanks for all the great ideas. I pretty much only plan on using it during bow season so the trailer would be great if I want to take my treestand in with me.
6 bulls and a buck have came out on my mtn bike and trailer. Great way to get farther than most. However I am a mountain biker with a quiver of bikes.
Hey Tim. Congrats on all your success. Thanks for posting the pics of the trailer. Could you tell me what brand. It is exactly what I am looking for.
I grew up hunting the Oregon Coastal Range and during Sept alot of timber companies closed roads to motor vehicles due to fire danger. So we used to mtn bike in all the time to hunt. We also mtn biked a lot during the summer for fun as well so we had good bikes, which makes a difference. I usually involved a semi-painful 3-4 miles up into an area (typically 20-45 min ride). Gets in you farther than most hunters will hike. We pulled a bike trailer sometimes, its easier than riding with a pack on your back. I actually rigged an ATV rifle holders to my handle bars and carried my bow that way a couple times. The less backpack weight on your back the more comfortable the ride (thus the reason why we used a lightweight bike trailer sometimes) If you bike a lot year round, then mtn bike hunting is awesome. If you just pick up your bike August 30th and try riding into an area 3-4 days in a row you are gonna be hurting by day 3. I really liked that I could bike for 45mins in the morning into a spot but then can bike back down to the truck in the dark in just 15 minutes with my headlamp. * I unfortunately have never had the experience of taking elk meat out with me on my mtn bike. I am sure it is not fun but i have seen the Born and Raised Outdoors guys and another couple of guys doing it consistently so it must work pretty well.

Tom Shorett 1933 Ford - Street Rodder Grand National Roadster Show Top 100Written by on April 9, 2012 San Bernardino, California
In Tom Shorett's own words, this '33 Ford is "a great driver," and it must be because he continues to rack up the miles. The chassis is based on an original Ford frame that has been equipped with a Bell dropped axle and Pete & Jakes four-bars and Vega steering. In the rear more Pete and Jakes parts, in the form of ladder bars, position a Ford 9-inch rearend. Disc brakes are used up front with drums in back. Power comes in the familiar form of a 350ci small-block Chevy coupled to a Turbo 35 transmission. Painted Washington Blue, the body is a Gibbon fiberglass reproduction; the fenders, hood, and grille are original Ford sheetmetal. Stock headlights, horns, and bumpers are part of the resto-rod theme. Inside there a SO-CAL Speed Shop gauges in a stock dash and the custom top was made by Neil Gates.


text: Firstly i would like to say great game and a fantastic concept. However the ending i would say is not so great. While it is very well made and certainly tugs at your heart strings, I didn't play the game and wait for the ending only to find out i die anyway... Now i know people may argue that you didn't see lee actually turn so maybe he will be ok, but the fact you left it this way is really a let down to the series. I was really looking forward to the last episode but in all honesty it just brought me down and i kinda wish i stopped playing at episode 4. :confused: There should be an alternative ending where you can at least live... Just my opinion.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Cameron Clark scored 22 points and pulled down 10 rebounds, helping propel Oklahoma to a convincing 81-66 victory over George Mason on Sunday in its first trip to the BB&T Classic.
Dominating work on the boards paved the way for the Sooners, who out-rebounded the Patriots, 51-29. Gonzaga transfer Ryan Spangler scored 13 points and had a game-high 13 rebounds. Buddy Hield added 12 points and 10 boards. Oklahoma made only 1 of 12 attempts from beyond the arc, but compensated with 48.3 percent shooting overall and overwhelming edges on points in the paint, 50-20, and on fast-breaks, 12-0.
Oklahoma (8-1) led all the way, getting little resistance from George Mason (5-4) which was led by Bryon Allen, who had 15 points. Guarded tightly by the 6-foot-7 Clark, Patriots' guard Sherrod Wright hit just 2 of 9 shots, scoring seven points, 10 below his team-leading average.

The deadline is approaching for new voters to be registered for the Mar. 13 federal primary in Mississippi.
If you haven't registered yet, or if you have changed your address since you last registered, you need to take care of that no later than 12 noon, Feb. 11.
Circuit clerk offices will be open 8 a.m. to noon that day for registration, and registering to vote may be done during regular business hours Monday through Friday next week.
"This is the deadline, a week coming up, so I want to stress to people who have moved here, or they've never registered to vote, please come in and take advantage of it," said Johnson. "And the cutoff day is the 11th, because that's the day we start printing the poll books."
If you'd like to vote absentee in the primary, ballots are available now in circuit clerk offices.

The reform is much more than a simple endorsement of value-based pricing (VBP). What the government intends is to abandon one of the most venerable structures for P&R in Europe, the Pharmaceutical Price Regulation Scheme (PPRS), which was introduced more than a half century ago and, as negotiated at five-year intervals, stands as a symbol of close policy coordination between politicians, the health bureaucracy, and industry. In its place looks to be a far more hierarchical arrangement in which industry will basically function as price takers in a process administered exclusively through the Department of Health.
One reason why the changes have attracted less attention than they deserve is the larger debate over reform of the NHS, which is being reorganized under a bill now making its way through Parliament. Ironically, the NHS reforms promise more autonomy to local physicians in funding patient care and introduce more private sector competition in service delivery—just as the demise of the PPRS removes what is left of pricing freedom in medicines, in favor of outright controls. And although the NHS reform is expected to cut $8 billion in costs to the $160 billion system by 2015, none of the savings are pledged to improving access to medicines.Speak softly, industry
ABPI Director Stephen Whitehead's support for VBP—"it provides significant opportunity to both improve patient outcomes and stimulate the development of new and innovative medicines of the future"—did feature prominently in the government's press releases. But the language is highly nuanced and accompanied by a number of important caveats; like many other aspects of the debate on access and pricing in Europe, the way the industry speaks in public can be open to interpretation.
It is also true that there is little consensus on exactly what the government intends to do, and—more importantly—how and to what effect the new regime will be implemented. The discussion itself has been exhaustive to the point where all parties think they have heard back at least some of what they have said. VBP has been on the reform docket since 2007 and the Conservative coalition government formally presented it as a replacement to the PPRS in 2010.

The Vampire Diaries
Is The Vampire Diaries New Tonight, February 14, 2013?
There's a reason we have today encircled with a heart on our virtual calendar, and it has nothing to do with Valentine's Day. (Though any excuse to eat chocolate is welcome.) Tonight brings The Vampire Diaries Season 4, Episode 14, "Down the Rabbit Hole."
Based on everything we've heard, it's going to be a doozie. Bloody and bound Damon (Ian Somerhalder); vicious, vindictive Klaus (Joseph Morgan), and some serious peril for an unknown member of the gang.
Basically, cancel all your V-Day plans, buy some tissue, and have that chocolate sampler at the ready.

if so, let's hear about it.
i managed to get out early and avoid the 20 mph winds. that being said even the little 10 mph headwind i rolled into was a toughie. earlier this week i was messing around with routeslip for some new routes. i thought i would attempt one today, but i mapped it out back on Wednesday and apparently have a poor memory.
i actually managed to find some rollers over by the Fox River on Resurection Road (Yorkville, IL). around mile 20 i took a wrong turn and ended up back on my normal route??:)?? i spotted several other riders and one large group of 20 or so. the sun was out, the legs were feeling spunky, and the wind was a tailwind on the way home!! good stuff.
it was 45 miles today and hopefully 45 more tomorrow as i plan to finish off this new route.

how about you?

Bellator bantamweight champion Zach Makovsky (14-2 MMA, 6-0 BFC) meets impressive season-five tournament winner Eduardo Dantas (13-2 MMA, 3-0 BFC) at Bellator 65.
Bellator Fighting Championship officials today announced the matchup and the event, which takes place April 13 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J.
"Our bantamweight division has been electrifying and has provided some of the best Bellator moments," Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney stated. "Zach and Eduardo are two of the greatest bantamweights in MMA today, so this should be a really spectacular fight."
Bellator 65 also plays host to the semifinals of the promotion's upcoming season-six middleweight tournament.
Tickets for the event are currently on sale. As with all of Bellator's season-six events, the night's main card airs on MTV2 and preliminary action streams on Spike.com.
Makovsky seeks his first defense of Bellator's 135-pound title. "Fun Size" earned the belt with a season-three tournament win and has since picked up a pair of wins in non-title fights.
"I want to dominate everyone I compete against, but at the same time, I don't feel like I have to make any kind of statement," Makovsky said. "I just want to continue getting better and do the best I can every time I enter the cage."
Meanwhile, Dantas earned his shot at the belt with a season-five tournament title run that included wins over Alexis Vila, Ed West and Wilson Reis. The Brazilian prospect is confident ahead of the matchup.
"I'm here at Bellator to win the bantamweight championship," Dantas said. "I plan to not only win the title, but to keep it for many years to come."
Three additional contests for the card were also announced as former Bellator champ Lyman Good (11-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) meets LeVon Maynard (12-8 MMA, 1-2 BFC) in a welterweight tournament qualifier, Duane Bastress (4-1 MMA, 1-0 BFC) takes on Plinio Cruz (5-4 MMA, 0-0 BFC) and four-time Bellator vet Tim Carpenter (8-1 MMA, 3-1 BFC) faces three-time UFC vet Ricardo Romero (11-3 MMA, 0-0 BFC).

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) -- Marshawn Powell had season highs of 21 points and 10 rebounds as Arkansas rolled to a 89-60 win over Florida A&M.
Powell, who missed all but two games last season with a torn ACL in his right knee, was 8 of 14 shooting in 22 minutes of action Tuesday. The junior had four dunks and a pair of blocks to help the Razorbacks (3-0) remain undefeated.
Rickey Scott added 13 points as five players finished in double figures for Arkansas, which held the Rattlers (0-4) scoreless for nearly seven minutes in the second half to put the game out of reach. The Razorbacks scored 32 points off 22 Florida A&M turnovers.
Reggie Lewis led the Rattlers with 15 points, while Muhammed Abdul-Aleem had 14 and Jamari Bradshaw 13.

PCC in the News
News: Football's Marona, Medrano Earn 4-Year University Scholarships
The Pasadena City College football team held a signing ceremony Tuesday for 2012 lettermen Tyler Marona and Andrew Medrano, who both earned scholarships to play at the university level.
Marona, a 6-foot-4, 235-pound defensive lineman from St. Francis High, leaves PCC after one season in accepting a scholarship at NCAA Division I Syracuse University (New York). As a freshman, Marona made 25 tackles, a team-best five for lost yardage including two quarterback sacks.
A business economics major with a 3.4 grade point average, Marona talked about the importance of attending PCC and it how it made a difference.
"Getting a scholarship to a place like Syracuse out of PCC means that the dream is still alive," Marona said. "My belief was that I could get stronger as a player and be seen here. I felt PCC was that springboard for me."
Medrano is headed to Division II Walsh University (North Canton, Ohio) to play for the Cavaliers.
Medrano, a 6-foot, 200-pound sophomore linebacker/strong safety, played two seasons at PCC under Lancers' head coach Fred Fimbres. Medrano finished tied for fourth on the team in tackles with 39, made one sack, one interception and broke up two passes. He also caught a 34-yard pass on a gadget play.
Majoring in administrative justice with a 3.0 GPA, Medrano grew up in East Los Angeles and played at Lincoln High before coming to PCC.
"I'm excited about getting a scholarship," Medrano said. "I put in a lot of hard work to get to this point. I've seen others put in the work and not get rewarded."
Fimbres talked about his role as a coach in moving players forward.
"As coaches, we see the No. 1 goal is to transfer and matriculate student-athletes," Fimbres said. "While it would have been nice to have Tyler one more year here, I feel he leaves here a far better football player, and he achieves his own goal of making it to the Division I level. Andrew really came into his own this past season, and his progression into becoming a hard-hitting tackler makes him a find for Walsh. Both of them are examples of how our program can help mold individuals and prepare students to achieve at the collegiate level."
Fimbres also announced that defensive end Dean Bisterfeldt, who totaled 35 tackles and three sacks over two seasons at PCC, is attending Ottawa University in Kansas, a NAIA institution. Bisterfeldt is a local talent from Monrovia High.
