|Enderle on Manning Award Watch List
You can add the Manning Award Watch List to University of Idaho quarterback Nathan Enderle's growing list of preseason recognitions.
The Manning Award, sponsored by the Allstate Sugar Bowl, added Enderle Tuesday in its planned release of one player per day through its official Facebook and Twitter pages. The award has honored the top quarterback in the nation for the past six years.
Enderle attracted attention in 2009 as he engineering the Vandals' turn-around from a two-win team to a bowl champion. Along the way, he climbed to No. 5 in the NCAA's pass efficiency rankings and is one of the top two returners in that category this fall. He also finished 2009 ranked second in the nation in yards-per-attempt (9.31), 15th in passing yards per game, 28th in total passing yards, and 45th in completions per game.
"It's a great honor to even be considered."
The list of 10 finalists will be released Nov. 29. The winner will be announced Jan. 19, 2011. The Davey O'Brien semifinalists will be announced Oct. 25 with the finalists being revealed Nov. 22 and the winner Dec. 9. The Unitas Award winner is announced in December.

Rated 4 out of 5 by ADS74 No Screws They do not include screws, and unfortunately I did not read the reviews before I ordered them, or I would have know that, as somebody else has already stated that in their review. October 4, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by GspHilde Nice looking hooks I'd have given 5 stars, but the hooks didn't come with any screws. A pair of dark brown screws would have been nice. Other than that they are very attractive hooks. January 26, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by court Rustic and Functional We have cats so I needed a tablecloth for our new dining table. I would much rather just have the wood top showing but this was a great find considering I don't want scratches! It's rustic and has a great french country/shabby chic feel to it and is unique compared to a lot of whats out there. Havent washed it yet so hopefully it holds up well October 3, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Valerie74 Shrinks I checked reviews and saw that another reviewer had concerns about shrinkage but I purchased anyway. I was so disappointed to find out that she was right - I washed according to directions and the length changed considerably. VERY disappointing. I will keep it because I love the laid-back, rustic look, but I'm so disappointed that World Market would advertise this product as 60x90 when it ends up being 60x82 after washing. October 15, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by lovincupcakes Beautiful - but it shrunk! I was so excited to use this on my Easter table this weekend. I washed it in cold water and put it in the dryer before using it. I just pulled it out to put on my table and it doesn't fit anymore! It has shrunk about a foot! It doesn't fit on my dining room table anymore. :( March 26, 2013

The symptoms of a corneal abrasion any resemble other eye conditions or medical problems. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
Diagnosis is usually made based on a complete medical history and physical examination of your child's eye. Local anesthetic drops may be placed in the eye in order to examine the child. In addition, your child's physician may use a fluorescein stain to help confirm the diagnosis. This is done by placing a small amount of a dye in the child's eye. The stain does not hurt the child. A special light is then used to look at the surface of the cornea, and any abrasion or scratch can be seen.
Specific treatment for a corneal abrasion will be determined by your child's physician based on:

Rated 5 out of 5 by LM325 Great jewelry holder This is very cute and sturdy. I have been looking for a unique jewelry holder for while but wasn't able to find one that I liked. As soon as I saw this one I knew I would like it. It won't take up room on my dresser like a jewelry box does. June 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by azureskye this product is excellent for storing jewelry, especially earrings. I chose this because my earring collection had wildly overgrown the cheap holder I bought long ago. Most of my earrings are large and/or dangly, so other products I looked at would not be much more organized. This item is perfect for my purposes. I easily hung all the largest and dangly ones on the bottom bars, and graduated them up in size. Even with my extensive collection, I have room for everything and it no longer looks jumbled and confusing, but is now visually pleasing and there is still room left. I can hang hoop earrings on the hooks, and the few stud earrings I own fit securely where the spirals meet the squares, up top. I am very pleased :) May 26, 2013

Reigning Ivy, Patriot Champions To Meet At Denunzio Saturday Afternoon
LIVE VIDEO l LIVE RESULTS l PRINCETON ATHLETICS TWITTER l TIGER SWIMMING & DIVING TWITTER
In what has been one of Princeton's top rivalries over the last five years, the 23rd-ranked men's swimming and diving team will host Navy Saturday at 2 pm in a showdown between two reigning conference champions.
How close was this meet last season? Current senior Stevie Vines, a three-time Ivy champion in diving, topped Navy's Ben Freedman by a quarter of a point on the 3-meter board in the 14th event of a 16-event competition. That quarter point was a 10-point swing, and it provided the difference in a 152.5-147.5 victory for the Tigers, who went undefeated last season.
And then there was the year before, when Navy became the first team to ever defeat Princeton in a dual meet at Denunzio Pool. Navy completed a 167-133 victory to end a streak of greater than 20 years, though both teams would go on to win their respective league titles at the end of the season.
And there is no reason to expect anything less from this meet on Saturday. Princeton is 4-0 this season, with victories over Ivy League rivals Penn, Cornell, Dartmouth and Brown. The Tigers also won the Brown Invitational and performed well in the season-opening Big Al Open. Navy is 5-2, though it is unbeaten in the Patriot League, and has won three straight heading into this meet.
Both teams have swimmers who rank near or at the top of their respective leagues. In the sprint free events, Princeton's Harrison Wagner (1st in the 50, 2nd in the 100) and Jeremy Wong (1st in the 100) should have tough races with Navy's Zach Ingold (2nd in the 50, 1st in the 100) and Hugh Davison (3rd in the 100, 1st in the 200).
Princeton freshman En-Wei Hu-Van Wright and Navy's Brendan Walsh both top their respective leagues in both the 100 and 200 back, while Princeton freshmen Teo D'Alessandro and Byron Sanborn will face Navy juniors Sean Murphy and Luke Hoffer in the breast events. Navy's Ben Bondurant brings the best time in to the 200 fly, though Princeton's Kaspar Raigla has the top 100 fly time. Bondurant is also a top IM performer for Navy, while junior Daniel Hasler (featured on Thursday's TigerCast) joins Hu-Van Wright and D'Alessandro for the Tigers in the IM.
And while both teams have deep diving groups, perhaps it will come down to Vines and Freedman once again to provide the margin of victory.

Cleveland, OH (April 23, 2009) - Brian Kenyon, a key member of the senior management team that has brought fiscal stability and operational discipline to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum over the past decade, has been promoted to the newly created position of Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
Kenyon will continue to report to President and CEO Terry Stewart and have direct responsibility for the Museum's finance, administrative, operations, licensing, merchandising and legal functions. In addition, he will take on oversight authority over other functional areas that will continue to report to Stewart – enabling Stewart to devote more time to fund raising, development and cultivation of key relationships.
"Brian and I have enjoyed a great partnership for almost 10 years as the Museum has successfully transitioned beyond its startup phase to a mature business with a more sustainable operating model," said Stewart. "He is extremely innovative and budget-focused, and is highly respected within our organization and beyond."
Kenyon, 45, joined the Museum in May 1999 as Vice President of Finance and Administration, responsible for finance, human resources, facilities, operations and technical services. Over time, his responsibilities were expanded to include the Museum's licensing, merchandising and legal functions.
Among his accomplishments, Kenyon has implemented various budget and financial management systems, cash flow projections and operational controls that have contributed to the Museum's ability to remain self-sustaining – a comparatively rare feat for a nonprofit cultural institution.
"I'm very proud that the Museum is so strong financially," said Kenyon. "From an earned revenue perspective, we are best-in-class compared with other museums. Going forward, growing contributions and philanthropic support will enable us to secure the Museum's financial vitality and provide additional resources for programming."
Kenyon has also been instrumental in driving the Museum's capital campaign, which is rapidly closing in on its $35 million goal to provide for a permanent Library and Archives on the Cuyahoga Community College campus as well as renovation of the Museum's interior.
Kenyon brings more than 20 years of experience in management and finance to his role. After beginning his career in public accounting at Coopers & Lybrand, he held corporate finance positions at NACCO Industries, Signature Brands and International Total Services.
"Coming to the Museum was a unique opportunity that allowed me to combine my professional experience with my love of music," he said. "After all, there are thousands of publicly traded, for-profit companies in this country. But there's only one Rock Hall in the world, and I get to come here every day. I also appreciate the confidence Terry and the Board have demonstrated in me and now look forward to the challenges of my expanded responsibilities."
Kenyon is active both in his profession and the community. He is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Ohio Society of Certified Public Accountants, the Audit Committee of Greater Cleveland Partnership and the Boards of the YMCA of Greater Cleveland, where he chairs their Finance Committee, and the Advisory Board to the George W. Daverio School of Accountancy at the University of Akron, which he previously chaired. He is a graduate of the Leadership Cleveland Class of 2006.
About the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum

|Mortellaro ties Idaho record
BOULDER CITY, Nev. - University of Idaho sophomore Kayla Mortellaro tied a University of Idaho record en route to also tying the course and tournament record with her 65 during the opening round of the UNLV Spring Rebel Invitational at the Boulder Creek Golf Club.
Mortellaro's seven-under par gives her a two-stroke lead over Texas State's Valdis Jonsdottir, who is at 67. In a tie for fourth is Idaho senior Amanda Jacobs, who had a personal best with her 69. They helped put the Vandals - four strokes behind host and first-round leader UNLV, in good position with two rounds to play. The Vandals totaled 285 to 281 for the Rebels. Ball State is at 289 and Missouri at 290.
"I'm extremely pleased with this for our first competitive round of the spring," coach Lisa Johnson said. "We did a good job of finishing our rounds today. Our ball-striking is very good right now and our short games enabled us to save a lot of pars and put ourselves in position for birdies."
Johnson said the Vandals made the most of the mild Northwest winter to put themselves in position to continue their remarkable fall, which includes three tournament victories.
Teo Poplawski, another in the Vandals' strong sophomore class, is tied for 29th at 74 with Annika Karlsson tied for 54th with a 77 and Frida Nilsson in a tie for 81st with an 80.
The tournament continues with 18 holes Tuesday before concluding with Wednesday's final round.

In my latest game I've twice seen aliens walk through solid walls. Both times it was on the Industrial map while trying to claim a crashed scout.
The first time an Caesan ran from the fenced area in the far right corner into the building along the bottom right edge the map. My troops hadn't seen the part of the wall he ran through, but they saw the beginning and end points of his movement. I was surprised when I killed him and entered the building to see that there was no door, just a tool chest up against the wall, roughly where he walked through.
The second time was in the building adjacent to the power substation (the closest building to the drop ship's exit ramp). I had two soldiers in the building, facing towards the door in the top corner. Much to my horror, an Sebillian soldier ran right through the wall on the upper left (to the left of the door), and ended his movement right next to them in the middle of the room. On my turn my soldiers each shot him, but he survived the damage and killed them both with reaction fire. A shotgun blast at point blank and four or five pistol shots (from my missile launcher gal) were not enough to take him out!

No. 13 Penn State Hands No. 3 Field Hockey First Loss of the Year, 4-3
Early goals in both halves were enough for No. 13 Penn State, as the Nittany Lions topped the No. 3 Princeton field hockey team 4-3 Sunday afternoon at Bedford Field. The loss marked the first of the year for the Tigers (3-1), snapping Princeton's 17-game winning streak.
Penn State jumped out early with a pair of goals over the first 15 minutes of play, while Princeton struggled to secure possession of the ball and was plagued by turnovers.
As the clock neared halftime, the Tigers began to find their rhythm and created steady chances inside the Nittany Lion circle. At 31:43, Allison Evans served up the ball to Julia Reinprecht on right side. With a defender on her back, Reinprecht sent in a reverse shot to cut PSU's lead to one, 2-1.
Princeton looked to be reenergized, but was unable to corral control early in the second half.
Like the first period, PSU quickly created chances in the Tiger circle and capitalized twice in the 39th minute over 30-second span.
After conceding the goals, Princeton's defense tightened up and prevented the Nittany Lions from creating further dangerous chances. On the other end of the field, the Tigers worked to press into the PSU circle and respond to their 4-1 deficit.
In the 52nd minute Teresa Benvenuti tapped the ball outside the cage and Maddie Copeland picked up the deflection to make it a 4-2 match.
The Tigers' comeback effort continued in the 57th minute off a penalty corner. After not finding a clear opening on the initial shot, Evans picked up the deflection to bring Princeton within range of tying things up, 4-3.
With just over four minutes to play, Princeton's greatest chance of knotting the score came off a Cat Caro shot. The freshman stole the ball on the left side, made a tap into the circle and had an open one-on-one shot with the PSU goalkeeper. Her shot ultimately would go just high and wide.
Princeton held a 19-10 shot and 8-4 penalty corner differential, but it was PSU to score twice off its four corner opportunities.
The Tigers will hit the road for the first time this season, facing Dartmouth on Saturday, Sept. 21 at 12 noon and Syracuse the next day at 3 p.m. The match against the Orange will be live on ESPN3.

Late Show with David Letterman band leader Paul Shaffer, moonlighting in his annual turn helming the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony band, calls out the tune: "This is a song called 'Big River,' and it's in E!" It's the 1992 induction ceremony, and one of that year's inductees, Johnny Cash, recorded "Big River" for the Sun label in 1958. The band for which Paul Shaffer called the tune is remarkable in its sheer star power –some fellow 1992 inductees back up Cash, including Booker T. and Steve Cropper of Booker T. and the M.G.'s, Ronald and Marvin Isley of the Isley Brothers and Sam Moore of Sam and Dave. Past and future inductees also round out the band, including John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival (inducted in 1993), Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones (1989), the Edge of U2 (2005), Little Richard (1986), Carlos Santana (1998) and Isaac Hayes (2002). Edgar Winter backs Cash on sax and Aaron Neville of the Neville Brothers makes an appearance on vocals and percussion. Even with so many stars, Johnny Cash and his song outshine the pantheon onstage. "Big River" was the B-side of a two-sided country smash. The A-side, "Ballad of a Teenage Queen," held onto the Number One spot on the country chart for 10 weeks in 1958, and reached Number 14 on the pop chart. "Big River" reached Number Four on the country chart on its initial release, and even reentered the country chart in 1970, reaching Number 41. The song has been recently re-recorded by neo-traditionalists the Secret Sisters. The Sisters are backed by Jack White of the White Stripes and Raconteurs, who also produced Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Wanda Jackson's 2011 album, The Party Ain't Over. Cash's legacy lives on at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, with his induction ceremony performance, with two songs in the interactive exhibit Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll, with items on display in the Memphis Scenes case in our Cities and Sounds exhibit, and most notably, with the JC Unit One – Cash's actual tour bus. The bus is parked in front of the Museum and open to the public through September.

A new musical force has hit the scene and they're called Rudimental. Showcasing a catalog that spans drum and bass, soul, garage, jungle and house, the UK chart-toppers are lapping their peers with their ridiculous versatility. Their lead single, "Feel The Love" featuring John Newman blew up at #1 in the UK and was named iTunes' Dance Song of the Year – watch the accompanying beautiful wintery video above. What you know about some horse racing in city streets?!
At the end of last year, the group also released their video for "Not Giving In," which also features John Newman along with Alex Clare. The music moves through moods and tempos, keeping the listening experience interesting and engaging; the high adrenaline overtone carries welcome elements of soul and pop, creating a highly palatable sound for a universal appeal. And once again, the neighborhood centric storytelling and cinematography for the video is brilliant – find it after the jump.
"Hell Could Freeze" is yet another recent-ish single for the sampling and features Angel Haze. For those of you we've now got hooked, the good news is that this one is a free download on the Rudimental website.
After the jump, find the group live in session with their super soulful tune, "Baby."
Look out for an album sometime this spring! Also, the group today announced a string of US tour dates (find below) that include appearances at Ultra Music Festival (Miami), SXSW (Austin), as well as stops in NYC, San Francisco, and LA.
Tour Dates
3/13- SXSW, Austin TX (DJ)

21-year-old Reni Lane, whose edgy beauty belies her geekier side, is about to turn some heads in the music scene.
Tall and radiant, Reni's charisma attracts the young, not so young, and apparently, legendary photographers. True story: Reni Lane goes to see a Verve concert. Wanting to soak up the magnificence that is The Verve from center stage, Reni bypasses her seat and cozies up into the front row. Turns out the seat belongs to Mick Rock, who, upon seeing Reni, has a quick jolt of Deja Vu: Reni reminded him of a young David Bowie on the Ziggy Stardust tour. The two immediately hit it off, Mick offers to photograph Reni, and the rest is rock history.
In 2007, she played the famous Melkweg in Amsterdam with her band. Upon returning to the states, Reni was officially "discovered" by MTV talent executives and featured in their First Ladies of Rock campaign, sponsored by Virgin Mobile. Still a full-time student at Columbia — maybe NYLON Magazine said it best when they wrote, "Some people seem to exist just to make the rest of us look like slackers. Reni Lane is one of them."
Reni Lane's Ready is out soon on Custard / Universal Motown. Stream the first single, "Place For Us" on her MySpace.

Hey gang.
My 52K has a bad practically missing valve guide on the rear Cly i noted two years ago when the last was tight trying to push in a feeler gauge the valve tip moved almost half way off the adjuster bolt.
Well with the guide that bad I'm surprised how well it runs.
Any way I recall someone saying KH valve had bigger head diameters. Is that correct? Are stem lengths the same?
I plan on having a new guide installed and the seat is likely wasted so rather then sink the valve I'd like to just cut the seat and size the valve head to suit. Were both valves in the KH bigger? i don't recall if it was the intake or the exhaust and it cold and snowy out in the garage...
Thanks and happy new year!

Since this blog has begun I have tried to introduce the world to a number of the faces who are regularly seen around the museums of the Annapolis Heritage Society. One of the decidedly unsung presences around the O'Dell House Museum is our neighbour's cat Janet. I will admit that Janet can be a mixed blessing in the museum on occasion. I have frequently been in the middle of a discussion with visitors when I see her leisurely wander through one of the exhibit rooms at the museum. Invariably there is a somewhat comic chase through the museum as I attempt to move her toward the exit without breaking any artifacts. If she is feeling generous she will let me carry her out. If she is not, we have a game of cat and curator until she decides to run out the door.
On the positive side, Janet does play a useful role in attracting visitors to the museum. I would not even begin to count the number of times that I have opened the door of the museum to find a tourist having a short visit with Janet. She rolls around on the sidewalk and doles out short bursts of feline affection for tourists who are suffering separation from their own cats. This usually provides me with the opportunity to introduce Janet start a conversation. More often than not this conversation turns into a museum visit. She is much better in this role than her elusive brother Sam who tends to shun most human attention.
Interestingly, Janet has recently started to provide some gardening services for the museum. As you can see in the second photograph, she has decided that the dead stems of our hostas are quite unsightly. She regularly wanders over to the museum, bites off a stem or two and gives a somewhat disgusted look at the door before she walks away. As a community organization, it takes a broad spectrum of personalities to make a museum work.
All for now,

I'm with Amy. My local library has a cat, but I doubt that our historical society does.ReplyDelete
Good post.
Sadly and somewhat ironically, one of the more famous of the museum cats died on the day I made this post. Clara the RCO (Rodent Control Officer) on the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic's CSS Acadia died of natural causes this morning. Clara was twenty years old. http://museum.gov.ns.ca/mmanew/en/home/about/mascots.aspxReplyDelete

Post subject: Your favorite older titles by Nora Roberts
I have a lot of catching up to do, not having read Nora Roberts in the past. So far, I've really enjoyed Nothern Lights, the "Born in"series, Carnal Innocence, and I'm now reading Honest Illusions, thanks to someone here who mentioned it. I started Montana Sky, and while I liked the storyline and the characters, I was quite put off by the animal killings. I don't do any kind of animal abuse or killings in my reading.
I'd love to hear your favorites of her older titles. Too much suspense and not enought romance turns me off too. I may be the only one here that is not a huge fan of her JB Robb books, too much blood and gore for me. Just give me a really good story and throw in some romance too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and opinions.

I haven't read all of her backlist, but I can make a few suggestions from what I
read. It sounds like you're only interested in her single titles, not the categories she wrote. If you're willing to take a chance on those and don't mind a paranormal element (magic/psychic, not vampire or shape-shifter), I can recommend the Donovan Legacy books. I really haven't read many of the other categories.
From her single titles, Hidden Riches is good. It has the added benefit of being one of her funnier books (IMO), although I don't remember it as being a comedy.
For trilogies, I also recommend the Irish Trilogy (Gallagher family) books: Jewels of the Sun, Tears of the Moon, and Heart of the Sea.

I liked the ones Melann listed. Additionally, the Chesapeake series is one of my favorites. I don't know if I'm getting the order right: Rising Tides, Sea Swept, Inner Harbor, and Chesapeake Blue. I also liked the Dream trilogy, although I imagine they might read as dated now. Carnal Innocence, Three Fates, Midnight Bayou, The Villa, and Carolina Moon are singles that are pretty good -- most of those were hardcover releases. Angels Fall is my favorite of her recent books.

I'll second what Melann and Diana have said, but add in the Born In trilogy (also set in Ireland). Born in Fire, Born in Ice, and Born in Shame (didn't like the third quite as much, but since it featured a great deal of the characters from the first two books, I still liked it).

True Betrayals is an excellent family "saga" romance; it also features thoroughbred horse breeding, training & racing. The "In the Garden" trilogy has a ghostly element in all three books, but the story of each heroine is excellent: Blue Dahlia, Black Rose, and Red Lily.

Two titles....Sea Swept. Love the heroine, Anna Spinelli. She has stayed with me as one of my top favorite heroines in the romance genre. Also, Heart Of Devin MacKade. Hero has loved the heroine for years, even after she married another who turns out to be an abusive husband . Hero is the sheriff who ends up protecting her. Great book.
I don't read this author anymore for various reasons, but these books are gems.

I don't know if the four McKade books have been reissued, but they sure should be. I loved that series! My copies are very old and tattered and one is signed by Nora. Both the McKade and Chesapeake series are set in the area where Nora lives and her love for the bay and the life and people of the small towns of coastal Maryland shines through. Awkward sentence, but I hope you know what I mean.

Diana, wow to a signed Mckade brother book. I thought I'd seen them in the jumbo (two books combined) releases a few years ago. I just checked Amazon, and the McKade brother books are available in two separate books. One for Devin and Shane, the other for Rafe and Jared.

Nora books that are older favs of mine:
1)Honest Illusions is magical (1992)
2)Summer Pleasures is a duet with Second Nature (horror writer and celebrity mag writer go camping) and One Summer (photojournalist and Celebrity photographer travel the country together on assignment)(1986).
3)Playing the Odds and Winning Hand are my fav of the McGregor Series from 1985. I really liked the entire series.
4)The Villa was a favorite about 2 wine families but I can't remember much of the story now (2001)

I'm also playing catch up with her books. I've liked all that I've read
Northern Lights and Heaven and Earth (sisters trilogy).
Honest Illusions was my first and it's just amazing, I couldn't believe how good a writer she is. Angels Fall was my second and I'd have to say, so far, it's probably my favorite. I also loved Rivers End & Carolina Moon. I just finished Sea Swept, the first in that series and I'm itching to start the second one, Rising Tides.
An older title, but very good is Carnal Innocence.
I enjoyed the first of the sisters trilogy, Dance on Air, but couldn't stomach the second one, Heaven and Earth. A lot of readers here liked it but I couldn't relate to the female lead.
Also, like you, I'm not in love with the In Death books. I liked the first one, the second I didn't finish by the time it was due back to the library. I'm not a big fan of all the cop shows and that whole craze. I'll probably throw one in now and again in between the historicals and contemporaries because I'm curious to see how Eve and Roarke develop, but, so far, not into the futuristic books so much.

I really liked the older books in the MacGregor series. Also love, love, loved Angels Fall, though it is fairly new. I listened to both AF and Northern Lights on unabridged CD in the car (I commute two hours, roundtrip, each day), and they had a fabulous reader!

A 22-year-old Maryland man is in serious condition following a multiple-vehicle crash on Del. Route 1, north of Odessa, early Thursday morning.
Jadira I. Green of Fort Washington, Md. was driving a 1998 Buick Century on northbound Route 1, just south of the Biddles Toll Plaza, when he came to a complete stop in the left lane sometime before 4:10 a.m., according to Delaware State Police spokesman Sgt. Paul Shavack.
The lights on the Buick were off and Green was not wearing a seatbelt when a northbound 2007 Chevrolet box truck, driven by 37-year-old Chang Song of Camden-Wyoming, slammed into the back of the car, Shavack said.
The collision forced the Buick into the right lane of the interstate where it was struck on the passenger side by a northbound 1999 Coach Tour Bus, driven by 74-year-old Ralph Rhoades of Laurel.
No other occupants were on the bus at the time.
Song and Rhoades were each wearing seatbelts and did not require medical treatment, Shavack said.
Green was taken to Christiana Hospital Trauma Center with unspecified injuries.
The crash remains under investigation, Shavack said.
Northbound Route 1 was closed for about four hours while police investigated the crash and cleared the scene.

Gardening Articles: Edibles :: Herbs
Growing an Edible-Flower Planter
by National Gardening Association Editors
There's something about the idea of eating flowers that captures the curiosity of children, and they can easily grow their own little garden of edible flowers in a large planter. They might even be tempted to eat salads topped with their own fresh-picked blossoms.
You'll need:
- potting mix, not garden soil
- a large container, 14 to 16 inches in diameter
- nasturtium seeds, trailing and compact varieties
- 1 calendula plant, 1 chive plant, 3 viola plants. Purchase organically grown plants to be sure they are safe to eat. (Alternatively, you can start these plants from seed indoors in early spring.)
1. Fill the container about half full with lightly moistened potting mix.
2. Set the plants in the container, with the taller chives and calendula in the back and the violas in the front. Then sow the compact nasturtiums in the middle and the trailing nasturtiums in the front and sides.
3. Keep the planter moist, not wet, and in full sun.
4. Your children can snip the flowers with small scissors, gently rinse them, and let them dry on paper towels. The flowers can then be eaten as is, or added to salads or used as garnish for casseroles and other dishes. Violas are fun to use as decoration for cakes and cupcakes.

I like where you are going with the extended tail on the BC to carry the TC actuator. I wonder if you will see flexing and cracking in the weld joints due to the stress in the arms extending back from the BC. You are definetly cutting edge. Nice work!
How long is the extension back from the original bolt carrier to support the TC actuator? I assume it would vary depending on where you locate the feed tray and hinge point for the RPD tray and TC.
Got mine feeding, hand-cycling smoothly, but had to go with RPD "U" links, after re-locating the feed stud 3 times. Stud's located 5/8" behind the inside rear of the tray, to account for the aft tray location. DM1's are spaced too wide for the RPD TC to push them into the slot.
Have some rcvr flex (wall = 1/16") so am planning a curved bridge behind the tray. Good thing the BC ext has direct contact with the upper rails, or flex combined w/ BC slop would be worse. Not much clearance in there for a bridge. I went with both rails full length, so that helps w/ rigidity. Thicker left rail would have been even better (2XTM's has a VERY thick left rail). BC slop will diminish when the full-length welds are done, due to contraction / hourglass-like effect even with spacer & clamps. I can see alot of filing heading my way.......
This may wind up as a carbine experiment instead of a pistol, using the short gas system. My first RPD TC attempt, DM1 links (unsuccessful), short gas system, plus the twin-spring system is a vertical learning curve. Too many variables to tackle at once. RPD links are TIGHT compared to DM1's. Recoil springs & SMOOTH CYCLING will be the trick
Pirate - Thanks for sharing your pics - looking good - keep'em coming
looks like things are coming along:)
I've decided to go with a stock, for now, to simply things, but that also means a longer front end. Today I worked on a recoil spring guide tube, mounted in a G3 stock. The cuts align it solidly in the upper rails
The tube has since been welded in the front; plugged pinned & welded at the back end, and trimmed to (temporary) length inside. Tube extends back to the buttpad. The BC extension will travel INSIDE the sq tubing/mount to gain extra stroke length. First I need to weld the guide tube in the BACK of the stock attachment (sq tube) and drill take-down pin holes while it's still 4-sided. Then remove the front 'panel' so the tube is hollow, so the BC ext can travel almost (buffer) to the TD pins. Rvcr is presently 14" so everything's compacted. Then add epoxy filler to the stock-rcvr joint (spray oil inside first, so it can be removed later) and sand with a flapper disc, for a seamless fit. At least that's the plan. Mice & Men, right?
Welded most of the full length seams on both sides of the rcvr, without contraction or warpage. Still cycles smooth :) and I am thankful. That's where I ran into alot of problems building the MG47 - hand-filed till I wondered if there'd be any rails left. Very tight in there too. I had cuts-on-top-of-cuts OUCH!
PS I FOUND a LONG barrel extension - that'll save alot of work, and will get to see if the short gas system works, in spite of things
i like cnt's idea and am trying to do something simular. i am using the rear section of a fal lower. i left out the internal spring, but installed the tube. i plan on adding a bracket on the top like the one on the bottom to stablize it. i will drill it out to allow the spring to enter the stock tube. this is a very ruff idea and i will modify and clean it up later. the brackets will be tig welded to the rear section of the fal part. i have drilled and tapped the bracket to be able to bolt it to the receiver. this is my first attempt at this and a lot more work is needed on it, but it is a start.
i think i am going to be able to use the fal rear sites also.so far they will line up.
What is strength and length of your springs? Where did you obtain them?
M60 from SARCO. START at around 16"+. It's in "The BIG Thread"
Here's my newly designed 'Ferrari' BC extension. The diagonal is to clear the top TD pin, for a longer stroke. At the rear of the stroke, it's between the pins
It's a VERY TIGHT fit between the hammer arc and the BC ext, beneath the feed stud. The hammer does not extend to the top of the bolt (more pics later) and that is with the "L" portion bent up slightly, for clearance
It cycles the BC ext clear into the stock mount. Total stroke is 5.25", and the face of the bolt can travel 1" behind the feed tray. Made a comfortable cocking handle from a scrap section of barrel, but a vertical handle (like an MG42) would protrude less. A folding handle like on an HK, would be the ticket
Tomorrow I sand the epoxy flush, and we'll see how she fits. It looks like the 'plan' worked out well
Steve in El Paso
PS A guy over at Subguns posted 'this would be an easy build'. I hope he shares his amazing shortcuts!
Nice and Nice, I know who I'll be bothering later on. :brows:

Reflections: Travel Writers Tell Their Personal Stories
The stories in this section are not intended to provide information about travel destinations. They're primarily about the travelers themselves.
All travel stories tell us something about the teller, but in these pieces, the authors take the insights gained from travel and reflect on what they've learned about themselves -- hence the name.
These stories show the ways in which travel can change us. As GoNOMAD Writer Sony Stark has observed, "Nobody warns you that when you travel, your mind stretches and never returns to its original size."

Police look for cyclist with shaved legs!
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
This just in... not a joke...
Boulder police are looking for a man suspected of robbing a coffee shop at 4:35 p.m. Sunday.
Someone at the coffee shop in the 2600 block of Broadway called police after an employee confronted the suspect in the manager's office, according to Boulder police. The suspect fled the store out a back door and rode west on Alpine Avenue on a red full-suspension mountain bike, police said.
Staff members later discovered that money was missing from a cash drawer in the manager's office, according to police.
The suspect was described as a white or Hispanic man in his 20s, about 6 feet tall and 170 pounds. He had black hair, was clean cut and had shaved legs. He was wearing a blue polo-style shirt, khaki pants and new blue and white shoes.
Anyone with information about the crime can call officer Patrick Vest at 303-441-3482. To remain anonymous, contact Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Fearne Cotton
"Sitting in a really nice little country-type pub, an old man's quiet pub, larking about with my mates, putting beer mats on our elbows. It's like the beer mat Olympics."
- Fearne Cotton, on a fun night out.
She's a popular British radio host and TV presenter in her native England, but she's just starting to come into her own in North America. She's been featured on radio gigs like the BBC Radio 1 Chart Show and TV programs like Top of the Pops and the upcoming The Guinness Book of Records – Live in the U.S.
Fearne Cotton's radio experience can't be discounted either. Most notably, she's appeared on The BBC Radio 1 Chart Show where she was the first woman to be a BBC presenter on a chart show.
Fearne Cotton BiographyFearne Cotton was born on September 3, 1981, in Northwood, Greater London, England. She had a suburban upbringing with her parents Lyn and Mick, and brother Jamie. The esteemed BBC personality Sir Bill Cotton was a relative of Fearne, but she claims that the two rarely saw each other. Even so, Fearne Cotton's eventual choice of employment carries similarities.
While she got schooling at Newnham Primary School and Haydon School, Fearne Cotton started to develop interests in ballet and drama, studying them on weekdays and weekends, respectively. Although it was a grueling schedule, Fearne Cotton kept up with her pastimes, and when she participated in a national talent show, Fearne's career in showbiz was ready to begin. The talent show led to Fearne Cotton's first gig in 1998 on The Disney Spot and then a place on Diggit. Fearne Cotton's television career was in full bloom.
fearne cotton on the saturday showFearne Cotton hadn't originally planned on working with children, but she was happy to and the offers kept pouring in. She gained recognition on educational shows like the cartoon-oriented Draw Your Own Toons and the computer-themed Mouse before joining Finger Tips in 2002.
Most of these shows had been with ITV, but Fearne Cotton bolted to CBBC and landed on Eureka TV, a science show for kids. Fearne Cotton wasn't ready to slow down and neither were the offers, and she wound up with a copresenting spot on the morning show Smile and also The Saturday Show. In a twist of irony, The Saturday Show had Fearne Cotton locking ratings horns with her friend Holly Willoughby, who was on a competing show of her own. Fearne Cotton wasn't afraid of the challenge and she had another trick up her sleeve.
fearne cotton on top of the popsIn 2003, Fearne Cotton joined Top of the Pops. As their main presenter, Fearne Cotton became even more recognizable and stayed on until the show ended in 2006. While she was working on Pops, Fearne Cotton was exploring other endeavors simultaneously. In 2005, Fearne Cotton became a Friday morning host on BBC Radio 1 with Reggie Yates, whom she had worked previously on television. Since she found radio to be just as satisfying as television, the BBC was more than happy to expand her role, and she joined its weekend morning show in 2006.
After Pops ended, reality television was the next stop for Fearne Cotton. She took over from Rachel Hunter as a presenter on Make Me a Supermodel and also hosted the second season of Love Island with Patrick Kelly in 2006.
fearne cotton on the guinness book of records – liveBy 2007, Fearne Cotton and Reggie were still steady on the radio, and they were offered the chance to host The BBC Radio 1 Chart Show. This proved to be a milestone for Fearne Cotton. As cohost, she became the first female to present a show of this format. Back on TV, she hosted Making Your Mind Up 2007, which picked the UK song destined for inclusion at the Eurovision Song Contest. Fearne Cotton herself had presented on Eurovision in 2006, but in 2007, she appeared once again in a more visible role.
While Fearne Cotton had attained much success as a presenter, she also gained a solid reputation as an interviewer. At the 2007 BRIT awards, she worked backstage and performed a similar role at the Oscars that same year. She also attended The Concert for Diana, interviewing performers and royalty including the two Princes, Harry and William. With the UK media conquered, Fearne Cotton set out on a new challenge in 2008, venturing to America to take advantage of her latest and greatest break -- the new host of The Guinness Book of World Records – Live… and we can't wait to see her.

Chief Curator Jim Henke talks to Bruce Springsteen.
This is the seventh clip in a series of eight interview audio clips with Springsteen.
In this section of my interview, Bruce Springsteen talks about his songwriting process. He describes songwriting as a "meditation," adding that "it works best when you go into a light, trance-like situation." Later in the interview, he calls it a "magic act": "You literally pull something from thin air." He adds that when he started out, his success-to-failure ratio was "five percent success to 95 percent failure."
A significant portion of the Bruce exhibit at the Hall of Fame focuses on his songwriting. The first floor of the exhibit includes a songwriting notebook from his early band Steel Mill, as well as numerous lyric manuscripts from his first three albums. The second floor of the exhibit features one entire wall of lyric manuscripts, including his notebooks for Darkness on the Edge of Town, The River, Born in the U.S.A. and The Rising. It also features a table and chair. According to Bruce, he wrote many of his most famous songs while sitting at that table, which was in his house in New Jersey.

I sae Fifty Shades of Grey on the day it was released, and I am looking forward to the next two movies! DAKOTA was a perfect fit as Ana, and I think that Jamie is doing wonderful as Christian.I have read the books each about 4 times thus far, and Fifty Shades I have read about 7 times.I thimk I could feal with this relationship as well. I know people who participate in BDSM, but they share slaves, and I would never never ahare or want to be shared, you know?

After watching various youtube trailers for 50 shades, Alexis Bledel would be the perfect Anastasia, she has natural beauty, the perfect hair and figure and there is an innocence about her. She is exactly as described in the book. As is Matt Bomer, he has the same eyes and stance and sex appeal as described. A good chemistry between them which is believable.
Very disappointed in your casting director.
Posted at 4:17 PM on February 23, 2015
You don't cast people for their face or figure but their acting skills, and lets face it, Alexis will never be in a big budget film, she will be in tv shows and nothing else. Also, she is too old now. The actors are both gorgeous, and if they were not the ones you wanted to see from your kiddie shows on the CW or whatever, then too bad. A big plus is that they are booth super talented.

Posted at 4:20 PM on February 23, 2015
You are missing out. She actually made the movie. As much as I disliked the Anna in the books for being a pouty overly dramatic brat, Dakota makes Anna the perfect vulnerable but strong heroine I wanted to see. She has the exact good looks for the film, she is not the first person you would notice in the room, but when you do, you can;t stop looking at her. Much better then the surface big eyes, and prim little attitude of Alexis.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Escherichia coli (or simply E. coli) is one of the many groups of bacteria that live in the intestines of healthy humans and most warm-blooded animals. E. coli bacteria help maintain the balance of normal intestinal flora (bacteria) against harmful bacteria and synthesize or produce some vitamins.
However, there are hundreds of types or strains of E. coli bacteria. Different strains of E. coli have different distinguishing characteristics.
A particular strain of E. coli known as E. coli O157:H7 causes a severe intestinal infection in humans. It is the most common strain to cause illness in people. It can be differentiated from other E. coli by the production of a potent toxin that damages the lining of the intestinal wall causing bloody diarrhea. It is also known as enterohemorrhagic E. coli infection.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports about 70,000 cases of this type of E. coli infection occur in the United States each year.
In 1982, E. coli O157:H7 was initially identified as the cause of bloody diarrhea from eating hamburger meat contaminated with the bacteria. Since that time, outbreaks of E. coli O157:H7 have been associated with other types of foods such as spinach, lettuce, sprouts, salami, and drinking water. Outbreaks have also been traced to animals at petting zoos and day care centers.
E. coli O157:7 is found in the intestines of healthy cattle, goats, deer, and sheep. According to the CDC, the transmission of these bacteria to humans may occur in the following manner:
However, the CDC also indicates the way E. coli O157:H7 is transmitted may change over time.
An E. coli infection can make a person very ill. The following are some of the most common symptoms associated with E. coli O157:H7. However, each person may experience symptoms differently and may include:
Symptoms may range from none to a severe form of the infection known as hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). In HUS, an individual's red blood cells (oxygen-carrying cells in the bloodstream) are destroyed and the kidneys stop working. Approximately 5 percent to 10 percent of infections can result in this syndrome. Children and the elderly may be more prone to develop this complication, which may be life-threatening.
E. coli O157:H7 can be confirmed with a special stool culture. Stool samples are tested to compare with the source or contaminated food that has caused an outbreak. The CDC calls this "DNA fingerprinting" of E. coli.
Antibiotics are not used with this type of infection. In addition, antidiarrheal medications, such as loperamide (Imodium®) are not used. Recovery for most people with this illness usually occurs within five to 10 days.
If a person develops the life-threatening complication, hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), hospitalization may be required in an intensive care unit. Treatment may include blood transfusions and kidney dialysis. According to the CDC, three to five percent of persons who develop HUS may die from this complication.
CDC recommendations for prevention of the infection include:

After 22 years of trial & error we now have a clear & defined plan to implement.
In a rapidly changing marketing world you either adapt to the shift to online or you die. All the old staples of advertising & promotion, though some still valid, just aren't enough anymore.
This Masterclass is much more than an overview of what is happening in the online world. It is a blueprint of how to reassess your business marketing plan & target it for growth using all the new tools that online offers. By tapping in to presenters who have the skills, knowledge & experience to be considered experts in their respective fields, Tim gave us access to best practice in the world today.
This Masterclass gave me the tools to dissect our current business model back to its core values & redraft it with a laser focus that builds on its strengths & identified its weaknesses. After 22 years of trial & error we now have a clear & defined plan to implement.
Tim Reid's manner & presentation style puts you at ease, like working with a friend you trust & respect, and his panel of experts are without peer.
A heartfelt thank you for this opportunity Tim, we now have the confidence & direction to grow to our true potential.
