Brendan joins Sun
By brendan on Sep 17, 2006
I joined Sun three weeks ago. As this is the first entry in my Sun blog, let me say a little about myself:
You may have heard of me before from my various spare-time hobbies, including my DTrace site, or my Zones site, the DTraceToolkit, the K9Toolkit, Solaris Performance and Tools, SOSUG, #opensolaris on IRC, or as a Solaris instructor or consultant. If you've met me, you'll know that I'm passionate about Sun, and determined to see Solaris 10's cool features used to their potential - especially DTrace.
I'm delighted to join Sun so that I can program, create and innovate, in a full time capacity.
My email address will change, however my personal website, http://www.brendangregg.com will remain (which is a DNS pointer - the underlying location will change). While I have another blog, I'll be using this one to discuss work at Sun.
I look forward to helping out both Sun and Sun's customers.

AL.com reported on February 6, 2014 that the various aerospace contractors working on the Orion and the heavy lift Space Launch System expect to meet all of their milestones for 2014. This will include an expected flight test of the Orion on a Delta IV to take place during the fall. But that will not be the only event to take place during the current year. The contractors will:
"Open a new Vertical Assembly Center at NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility at New Orleans where Boeing will begin welding on the barrels, rings and domes that will make up the rocket's core stage. That core stage will be more than 200 feet tall and almost 28-feet wide.
'Test fire the first core stage engine at an Aerojet Rocketdyne facility in July. NASA will use four space shuttle main engines to provide the primary power to lift the rocket.
"Test fire at an ATK site a prototype of new solid fuel side boosters that will support the main engines on liftoff."
The fact that the SLS seems to be on schedule and on budget in advance of a planned 2017 launch will come as bad news for critics of the heavy lift rocket, such as former NASA Deputy Administrator Lori Garver, who have called for the project's cancellation. Some have slammed the SLS as being too expensive to support NASA space exploration efforts, though no one has offered a viable alternative. In any case the project will be harder to kill if it continues to perform well.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – Mississippi State coach Aaron Gordon saw a good effort from his young squad come up short in a 2-0 road setback to Alabama Saturday night in the preseason finale for both teams.
Alabama claimed a 16-9 shots advantage, but the Bulldogs equaled the Crimson Tide with six attempts each in the second half. The on-goal edge was much closer, with Alabama claiming an 8-4 advantage.
"I wanted to see where we are as a team coming out of preseason, and if we could put two games together back-to-back. We played well against Memphis Wednesday, and I thought we had good effort tonight although we didn't play as well," Gordon said. "To play another SEC opponent is good for us since we are a young, emerging soccer team. These games are invaluable for us. It was definitely a good opportunity for us to grow heading into next weekend's season opener."
Freshman Morgan Ferrara and senior Shannen Jainudeen recorded all of the Bulldogs' on-goal efforts, placing two shots each on frame.
The Crimson Tide took the early advantage in the fifth minute on a Theresa Diederich goal. Merel van Dongen hit the initial shot, which was saved by MSU goalie Rhylee DeCrane. The ball trickled toward the line, but DeCrane knocked it wide where Diederich found it for the one-timer to the far post.
DeCrane turned in another stellar effort in goal, stopping six shots in the contest.
After the shaky opening few minutes of the game, the Bulldogs settled in and created some opportunities of their own. Jainudeen put both of her first-half attempts on frame, including an attempt in the 19th minute that Alabama keeper Emily Rusk managed make the kick save on.
Ten minutes later Ferrara put a ball through the Alabama back line that found Jainudeen for a shot from the right side, but Rusk managed to punch the effort away before it could find the far post.
Alabama extended the lead to 2-0 11 minutes after the second-half kick. The Bulldogs were unable to clear a corner out of the danger area, and Marusckha Waldus found Lacey Clarida for the goal.
State's best opportunities of the final 45 minutes came off the feet of Mallory Eubanks and Ferrara.
Eubanks' chance came in the 83rd minute when she rifled a shot that was unlucky and deflected off the crossbar.
Three minutes later Ferrara flicked one forward that rolled past the keeper but was cleared away short of the line by an Alabama defender.Gordon's club officially opens the 2014 slate Aug. 22, hosting Iowa State at 7 p.m. on the SEC Network +.

Clint Eastwood now has a new girlfriend. He was married to Dina Eastwood and they were even on the show "Mrs. Eastwood and Company" for a bit. Now things have fallen apart and they are getting a divorce. Clint was dating one woman but now he has moved on and things are looking great for the actor. On Friday, NY Daily News shared who the new woman in his life is and a bit about her.
He was spotted out grocery shopping recently with Christina Sandera. The two seem really happy together and are doing great. They are doing so well that he has already moved her into the home that he shared with his wife Dina during their marriage. This is the second woman that he was linked to since Dina and Clint decided to that they were better off apart. Barbara Walters also spoke out recently saying he was the one who got away and you can read about it at this link.
She works as a hostess. Christina actually works at Eastwood's Mission Ranch Hotel in Carmel, Calif. This means she is his employee. It is unknown how long she will end up working there though. If she stays with Clint Eastwood, it might be a bit strange to keep dating his employee. Things are looking great for this couple.

Don't expect respite: Siddle
Peter Siddle has warned South Africa not to expect any respite from the tourists in Port Elizabeth.PT0M0S 620 349
Lively left-armer Wayne Parnell is favoured to this week make his first Test appearance in four years for South Africa, in place of bowling all-rounder Ryan McLaren.
McLaren was ruled out of the second Test due to lingering repercussions of being struck on the helmet by a brutal Mitch Johnson bouncer on the fourth day of the first Test on Saturday.
Immediately the blow drew blood and caused his ear to swell.

The evening after the match the 31-year-old was still suffering enough to be admitted to hospital.
South Africa team manager Dr Mohammed Moosajee said McLaren had been diagnosed with mild concussion.

MIT departments and/or faculty will periodically require the creation of cost objects to capture expenditures related to an activity for which MIT will be reimbursed.
Although Central A/R will not participate in the billing of these amounts, they are part of MIT's total accounts receivable. Therefore, A/R will set up and monitor the balance of such cost objects.
Additionally, because there is inherent risk involved in MIT's outlay of funds subject to later reimbursement, faculty must designate, at inception, another cost object which will alleviate any possible deficit.
1. A faculty member realizes a need to create a cost object within the parameters above.
2. The faculty member drafts a letter explaining the need and designating another account to cover any shortfall and forwards it the Director of Conference Services.
3. The Director of Conference Services reviews the request and forwards it to the Assistant Controller responsible for A/R requesting creation of a new cost object.
4. The Assistant Controller reviews the request and either requests more information or approves the creation of the cost object.
5. The approved request is forwarded to A/R and an internal order is created (order type 0010 - Accounts Receivable).
6. Monthly, A/R personnel will review balances of all type 0010 internal orders. Based on their knowledge of the particular event (some involve significant outlay prior to reimbursement, some collect large amounts of revenue prior to expense) balances will be noted and, where appropriate, the Account Supervisor/Addressee will be contacted and requested to bring the balance to zero by depositing funds against the account at the Cashier's Office.
7. All type 0010 internal orders will be settled to G/L account 101225 monthly. At month/year end, after settlement, this balance and the balance of account 101200 - A/R General will represent the balance of all outstanding general accounts receivable.
8. When the activity which prompted the creation of the cost object has ended (i.e., the conference has been held):

RSS feed for LucasForums?
Hi guys! Is there a RSS feed for LucasForums? If not, is there any chance that there will be one? I don't know about you, but I would love one.. It would be more practical.. Like 1 feed for every forum :-)
Why would LucasForums use a RSS feed ? It is simply useless... :confused:
Its an ok concept, but like Leviathan said: its useless. To us. Yeah, thats just an opinion, though.
Okay :/ I'm kind of new here, so LucasForums is more like an network of forums or what's the deal?
Yeah, it's a big hive of discussion forums for each LucasArts game (except Day of the Tentacle. We don't have that here). You aren't restricted to just one area, you can raom around an post when you feel the need. Just don't spam! Spamming is bad.
Oh okey (stupid me! :P) hehe ofcourse not ;D
well thx anyways
Nah, no problem. Welcome to the forums. :)
Actually, it's alittle bit bigger than that.

Oh my :P hehe okay.. thx guys!

Participation ■
Assessments ■
Epitopes ■
Protocols ■
Techniques ■
9 laboratories participated in this
assessment. Out of the 9 laboratories, 1 participant (11%) achieved
a sufficient mark. In table 1 the antibodies (Abs) used and marks
are summarized.
Table 1.
Abs and
assessment marks
for PAX2, run 34
1) Proportion of sufficient stains
(optimal or good), 2) Proportion of sufficient stains with optimal
protocol settings only, see below.
No laboratory were able to produce an optimal staining result and
only 1 (11%) out of 9 stains was assessed as sufficient.
This laboratory used the pAb 71-6000 from Invitrogen/Zymed (lot. no.
428076A), HIER in an alkaline buffer with Bond Epitope Retrieval
Solution 2, Bond Refine (DS9800,Leica) as the detection system on
the Bond-max platform.
Different staining results were obtained with the same pAb but
different lot numbers: 3 out of 3 (100%) protocols based on lots
792018A and 954637A were assessed as insufficient due to a false
positive high background staining.
Although the number of participants was low, there was a generally
tendency towards lack of specificity and sensitivity with all the
Abs used in this run.
The most frequent causes of insufficient staining were:
- Poor signal-to-noise ratio
- False positive staining
- Too weak specific signal
In this assessment the prevalent feature of an insufficient staining
was a poor signal-to-noise ratio, a false positive staining and/or a
too weak or completely false negative reaction of the cells expected
to be demonstrated. The majority of the participating laboratories
were not able to demonstrate PAX2 in low antigen
expressing structures such as the ciliated epithelial cells of the
salpinx and in particular the epithelial cells of the collecting
ducts and the Bowmann capsules without getting a high background
The same multitissue block was used in the PAX2 and PAX8
assessments. Although the number of participants for both PAX2 and
PAX8 was limited, the proportion of sufficient results was
much higher for PAX8 than PAX2. This most likely was due to
better PAX8 Abs as the applied protocols were based on the same
settings in the two assessments.
Only 1 out of 9 participants produced a sufficient result using the
pAb 71-6000 / lotnr. 428076A.
No Abs or protocols provided an optimal staining result for PAX2.
Due to this inappropriate performance of the PAX2 Abs, the
laboratories should consider substituting PAX2 with PAX8.

COMING UP: The Arizona women's basketball team (11-5, 3-3) plays a 2 p.m. game at No. 19 UCLA (11-4, 6-1) tomorrow, Jan. 16. Live audio is available at www.arizonaathletics.com, as well as on KJLL 1330 AM in Tucson.
A QUICK LOOK AT THE WILDCATS: The Wildcats shot just nine percent (1-of-11) from downtown and 45 percent (9-of-20) from the free throw line, and senior guard Dee-Dee Wheeler failed to score 10 points for the first time since March 23, 2003, as Arizona lost its second-straight game, a 67-54 defeat at the hands of USC Friday night. Wheeler, who finished with five points, played just 21 minutes due to foul trouble. She was held under 10 points for the first time in 48 games. However, Wheeler grabbed two steals on the night, giving her 261 on her career and making her Arizona's all-time leader. The Wildcats shot just 34 percent from the field on the game, compared to the 41 percent of the Trojans. USC also made 46 percent of its three-pointers and 75 percent of its free throws. The Women of Troy out-rebounded Arizona 44 to 34. Junior Shawntinice Polk led Arizona with 18 points and nine rebounds. Freshman Ashley Whisonant was the only other Wildcat to reach double-digits scoring, finishing with 10 points. Senior Danielle Adefeso tallied nine points.
On the season, the Wildcats are led by Wheeler, who averages 18.5 points, 4.9 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 2.9 steals per game. Polk adds 13.8 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game. As a team, Arizona is out-shooting its opponents 45 percent to 37 percent and out-rebounding them 38.2 to 37.0.
SCOUTING THE OPPOSITION: Nikki Blue's last-second shot did not fall as Arizona State snapped the Bruins' 10-game home winning streak and handed UCLA its first Pac-10 loss with a 44-42 win in Pauley Pavilion Friday night. The 42 points tied the school record for fewest points in a game at Pauley Pavilion set against Utah in 2000 and also matched against Georgia in 1985. The Bruin total of 13 points in the first half was a record low for a UCLA team in Pauley Pavilion. Blue led UCLA with 12 points, four assists and seven rebounds. Noelle Quinn scored eight points, snapping her streak of double-figure scoring at 35 games. Amanda Livingston led UCLA with a career-high 10 rebounds. The Bruins shot a season-low 23 percent for the contest.
On the season, UCLA is led by Quinn, who averages 17.3 points and 7.1 rebounds. Lisa Willis adds 14.0 points and 6.1 boards, while Blue averages 11.4 points and 4.7 assists. Rounding out the group of double-figure scorers is Lindsey Pluimer, who has a 10.4 points per game average. As a team, UCLA is shooting 41 percent from the field, compared to the 40 percent of its opponents. The Bruins are outscoring opponents 70.9 to 61.5, but are being edged on the glass, 40.5 to 40.1.
SERIES SHORTS: Arizona trails the all-time series with UCLA 16-36. The last time the two teams met, on Feb. 12, 2004, Arizona fell 87-68 in Los Angeles. The Wildcats are 10-16 at home and 6-20 away vs. the Bruins.
RANKING IN THE PAC-10: In the most recent Pac-10 statistics, generated prior to Arizona's loss at USC on Friday, the Wildcats lead the league in field goal percentage (.452), rank second in blocked shots (4.0), third in scoring (71.7), field goal percentage defense (.372), rebounding margin (1.9) and defensive rebounds (24.3), fourth in assists (15.3), rebounding (38.5), and three-point field goal percentage defense (.291), fifth in scoring margin (8.7), three-point field goal percentage (.327), scoring defense (62.9), rebounding defense (36.5) and assist/turnover ratio (0.9).
Individually, Dee-Dee Wheeler leads the league in scoring, ranks second in assist/turnover ratio, third in assists, fourth in steals and minutes played, tied for fourth in three-point field goals made, ninth in three-point field goal percentage, 10th in field goal percentage and tied for 14th in rebounding. Shawntinice Polk leads the league in blocked shots, ranks second in field goal percentage, third in rebounding and defensive rebounds and seventh in scoring. Natalie Jones ranks tied for 14th in rebounding, while Jessica Arnold is sixth in three-point field goal percentage.
RANKING NATIONALLY: As a team, Arizona ranks 27th nationally in field goal percentage, 35th in scoring and 50th in won-lost percentage.
Individually, senior Dee-Dee Wheeler ranks 19th in points per game and 36th in steals per game. Junior Shawntinice Polk ranks 12th in field goal percentage and 36th in blocked shots per game.
WHEELER BECOMES ARIZONA'S STEAL LEADER: Senior guard Dee-Dee Wheeler tied the school record for career steals at the 10:41 mark in the first half of the game at Southern California Friday night and took sole possession of the record with 11:08 left in the game. She now has 261 steals on her career.
BONVICINI NEARS 250TH WIN AT ARIZONA: Head Coach Joan Bonvicini currently boasts a 249-153 (.619) record in 14 years at the helm at Arizona. The winningest coach in Arizona women's basketball history, she needs just one more win to reach the 250 mark.
POLK IS 10 AWAY FROM TWO MAJOR MILESTONES:Junior All-America candidate Shawntinice Polk currently has 790 rebounds and 190 blocks on her career. The center needs just 10 more of each to reach the milestones of 800 rebounds and 200 blocks. Polk is Arizona's all-time blocks leader and ranks second in rebounding, 131 behind Adia Barnes' 921 career rebounds.
ALL GOOD THINGS MUST COME TO AN END: Point guard Dee-Dee Wheeler's streak of 48 consecutive games with 10 or more points came to an end Friday night at USC as the senior finished with just five points. The last time she failed to reach double-digit scoring was March 23, 2003, when she had seven points in a loss to Notre Dame. Wheeler has scored 10 or more points in 95 of her 108 career games.
TALE OF THREES: Arizona is 7-2 (.778) this season when making four or more three-pointers. The team's two losses both came on nights when it made seven baskets from downtown: at Georgia on Nov. 17 and vs. Stanford on Jan. 9. On the contrary, the Wildcats are 4-3 (.571) when they make three or less treys.
CATS' NATION-LEADING HOME WIN STREAK ENDS: Arizona's 34-game winning streak, the longest in the nation, came to an end last Sunday when the Wildcats fell 78-66 to Stanford. It was Arizona's first home loss since Nov. 22, 2002, when it dropped the 2002-03 season opener in overtime to Louisiana State, 78-71.
WHEELER STARTS 100TH GAME: When she took the court against Arizona State on Jan. 3, senior Dee-Dee Wheeler was making the 100th start of her career. In doing so, she became just the sixth Wildcat ever to start 100 or more games.
80 IS THE MAGIC NUMBER: In the program's 33-year history, the Wildcats are almost guaranteed a win when they reach 80 points. Arizona is 169-20 (89 percent) all-time when reaching the 80-point plateau. With Joan Bonvicini at the helm, the Wildcats are 121-13 (90 percent) when scoring 80 points or more. This year alone, Arizona is 5-0 in games where it has reached 80 points in the scoring column.
DOUBLE-DOUBLE TROUBLE: During her career, junior Shawntinice Polk has recorded 41 double-doubles (21 as a freshman, 16 as a sophomore and four as a junior). The longest streak came at the start of her career, when she opened the 2002-03 season with eight consecutive double-doubles. During her three seasons, the Wildcats are 31-10 when Polk notches a double-double.
CURRENT CATS ON UA CAREER LISTS: Senior guard Dee-Dee Wheeler is first in steals (261), second in scoring (1,698), field goals made (663), field goals attempted (1,442) and minutes played average (32.2), fourth in scoring average (15.7), three-point field goals made (161), three-point field goals attempted (448) and three-point field goal percentage (.359), fifth in total minutes played (3,473), sixth in games started (103), eighth in assists (402) and ninth in free throw percentage (.733).

Connecticut is the leader with a 13,996 average, while Pac-10 opponents Oregon, Stanford, Washington and Arizona State rank 26th, 29th 32nd and 33rd, respectively, at 3,657, 3,192, 3,072 and 3,071.

Good seats, chilly, concerts need to start earlier then 8pm. Loved Schumman and Wagner.

The draw was Yo-Yo, who was great in the one number in which he soloed, but I will definitely keep my eye out for "The Knights". Their lack of orchestral stiffness was refrershing and they were fun to watch and hear.

I enjoyed "The Knights" and Yo-Yo Ma. I was disappointed that Yo-Yo only played 1 song. I was really interested in seeing him perform and it was the major reason I bought tickets for this show. Little did I know it would be a brief apperance. ...continued

Yo Yo is such a great musician and a generally nice person. He even sat in with the Knights on the last number played. The Knights are a young group of fine musicians that really like each other.

About the Ticket Supplier: Ravinia Festival
There's more to Ravinia than merely the world's greatest music. For as many people who walk through Ravinia's gate each summer, there are just as many ways to enjoy what they call "The Ravinia Experience."
For some, it all starts with a picnic picked up along the way, followed by a hop on the train and greeting your friends at your favorite spot on the lawn. Gradually, day turns into evening, and from the comfort of your perfect lawn spot, it culminates in a great concert by candlelight as you gaze at the stars above.
For others, it's a dinner reservation at one of Ravinia's popular on-site restaurants followed by a casual stroll to the Pavilion, where you go to see and hear the stars on the stage.
Bring your own lavish picnic, treat yourself to an ice cream cone at intermission, or just come as you are and leave the details to them.
Since 1904, Ravinia has been Chicago's "sound of summer," a place where you can meet up with your friends, have a wonderful time and hear some of the greatest music in the world. They've got stars on the stage and stars in the sky, and it's all within your reach. Enjoy!

If Eddra McPherson liked a student, she would give them a tender nickname — Maggot. It was from the bottom of her big ol' heart.
"A lot of us were maggots — not just the kids," Jeff Frazer said. "But she would say that to her students in her own way from the first day of class with her to the last day. That was Eddra."
It was her term of endearment for just about everyone but her husband of 47 years, Don. He was Mr. Wonderful.
Just about every student who walked through Caprock during her 36 years as economics and government teacher and social studies department head, sponsor, basketball statistician, cook, ticket-taker and all-around white-haired force of nature was a maggot at some point.
"She loved the kids at Caprock — that's it when you get down to it," said Frazer, a history teacher at Caprock for 28 years. "If you had any connection with Caprock in any way, she thought of you as family. It didn't matter if you were there one day or 20 years."
McPherson came to Caprock in 1972 after five years teaching at her alma mater Palo Duro, and Horace Mann. It took her, she once said, nearly two weeks to wear an orange shirt, but it was her favorite color until her retirement in 2008.
"Eddra was Caprock," said counselor Mary Larkan. "Eddra was here for everything."
McPherson was nearly always the first one at Caprock, and often the last to leave. Custodians gave her a key because she would drive across town to school and easily beat them to work.
One snowy winter night, Frazer called McPherson, asking whether she could pick him up for school the next morning because she had a 4-wheel-drive vehicle.
"Her answer on something like that was always 'yes,'" Frazer said, "but she would say, 'Now I like to get there early.'"
But on this occasion, she made an exception. She didn't honk for Frazer until 5 a.m. McPherson was usually the first one to arrive at 4:45 a.m.
That gave her a few hours, as the forever Spirit Club sponsor, to write countless good luck notes to athletes, begin working on booster signs or start the myriad volunteer tasks she assigned herself.
If McPherson didn't do much beyond her teaching — where her classes studied prices by buying a Thanksgiving dinner for the needy or helped with voter registration for minorities — that was plenty.
But that was just a snapshot of her time and energies at 3001 S.E. 34th Ave. She somehow kept stats at basketball games in between cheering and yelling at the referees.
She pulled rank on Frazer on a Thursday night football game, coercing him to go with her when the temperature was in the high teens. They were the only two fans still there at the end, and McPherson insisted they be seen outside the lockerroom so the players would know they were there.
She took tickets at baseball games. Her crock pots of food, including Tabasco-laden wienies known only as Hot Mamas, were legendary at Caprock tournaments.
Room 313 was hers. It was a fortress, full of decades of junk to some, but an indispensable supply to McPherson. A year after she retired, Larkan said she could still walk into 313 and smell the Estee Lauder she wore.
"Eddra was the kind of person that impacted everyone's life," said Palo Duro assistant principal Chris Paddock, former girls basketball coach at Caprock. "You think of a servant's heart, you think of Eddra."
About the only time she was serious was in the classroom. She was a spot-on Madonna and a Cyndi Lauper — in her pre-hip-replacement days — in teacher talent shows.
In her typical long list of requisitions for the social studies department, she once put down "one classroom set of Playboy Magazines" to see if the administration was paying attention. They were.
"I've never seen a teacher like her, early or late, made no difference," said Caprock principal David Bishop. "I don't think you find those any more."
Education and teaching have changed so that an Eddra McPherson is increasingly harder to find — if there could ever be another anyway. She was an original.
In September, during Caprock's 50th anniversary ceremonies, McPherson was invited back. She said she would show if she could move without a walker. She didn't use one, and she was bestowed the title of Mrs. Caprock and a plate of brownies.
Last Friday was the memorial service for Eddra McPherson. No teacher ever loved a school longer or more.

"I have great memories of those two teams in particular and can't wait to relive special moments with my teammates and fans, while raising money in support of our foundation's initiatives to make a positive impact on youth in South Florida."
Dol-Fans are invited to take part in the many events scheduled during Alumni Weekend which kicks off on Friday, October 23 with a Gala Party and Auction at Land Shark Stadium. The evening will start with a VIP reception at 6:30 p.m. with players and coaches from the 1982 and 1984 teams, Hall of Famers and Honor Roll alumni players, followed by a cocktail hour and the gala party, with fabulous live entertainment, dancing and games, from 8 to 11 p.m.
"It's going to be special to get the 1984 team back together for the first time." said Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino who was named NFL MVP after the 1984 season where he set six NFL season passing records including the records for most touchdown passes (48) and most passing yards (5,084) in a single season. "It was a great year, not only for me, but for all of the players and coaches. We were able to win the AFC Championship and make it to the Super Bowl. I have great memories from that year and I am glad for all of my teammates that their accomplishments are being recognized."
Saturday, October 24 will feature the annual Alumni Weekend Golf Classic at the Doral Golf Resort and Spa's Blue Monster golf course. A shotgun start is scheduled for 8:30 a.m., followed by an Awards Cocktail Party at 1:00 p.m.
"I look forward to seeing the other players and coaches that were a part of my generation," said linebacker A.J. Duhe who intercepted three passes against the New York Jets in the 1982 AFC Championship Game. "I have wonderful memories from those teams that will be with me forever and I can't wait to sit back, laugh and have a great time with my teammates and fans."
A salute of both teams will take place at halftime of the Dolphins-Saints game on Sunday, October 25, preceding a 2:15 p.m. pregame tailgate party and the presentation of the 2009 Unsung Hero Award. The Unsung Hero Award was established in 2004 to honor a former Dolphins player who might not have received the recognition he deserved during his playing days.

If I flag something and my flag is accepted, does it somehow affect my reputation? If not, is there a good reason why it shouldn't?
Nothing happens. Flags do not affect your own reputation.
Flags marked as helpful do influence how many flags you can use in a day, and can earn you badges (Deputy for 80 and Marshal for 500).
Flags serve to help moderate the site, see A Theory of Moderation. As such, they serve an entirely different purpose. Reputation gives you privileges to moderate, moderation should not then give you rep.
Reputation comes from good (helpful) answers/questions, that's it. Flags serve a different purpose. Just like editing, reviewing, etc., they are used to keep the site clean.

>Brookings Oregon News, Sports, & Weather | The Curry Coastal Pilot
Richard Henderson's wife received a phone call at the couple's Harbor home Monday and he was immediately suspicious. He smelled a scam.
The caller said his wife was the winner of a $3,000 drawing but, before she could receive it, he needed to send some information to her e-mail address or fax number. The caller claimed to be a Mr. Edward Kanick. His phone number was 1-876-399-5398.
Checking the International Calling section of his phone book, Richard tracked the number to Jamaica.
Instead of dropping the issue at that point, Richard did something unusual. He grabbed his tape recorder and called Mr. Kanick.
"I wanted to record the conversation for all to hear," he said. "I don't want anybody out there to get hurt by this scam."
Richard came to the Pilot office this week and played the tape for me. I heard the call go through and Richard begin talking to Mr. Kanick. The scam artist asked for an e-mail or fax to send "information."
"My computer isn't working right, so I told him I would get a fax number and call him back," Richard said.
Richard doesn't have a fax machine and, unfortunately, he couldn't find someone willing to offer their fax number to continue his investigation. His wife said to forget it, but he couldn't.
He typed up a flyer recounting his experience, including the information above, and distributed copies to locations around town, including the VFW hall in Brookings and his church. He took a copy to the Brookings Police Department, where an employee redirected him to the Curry County Sheriff's substation in Harbor. The office was closed, so he left a flyer.
Sharing his story with the Pilot was his next, and final, endeavor regarding the scam.
"I just want to get the word out," he said.
Why was he suspicious of the phone call in the first place?
Several relatives of his have encountered and recognized scams in recent years, he said.
"I had a cousin in Washington who received an e-mail about a relative (supposedly) traveling in another country who needed money to get back home," he said. "But my cousin knew that relative was right here at home."
Another relative received a similar phone call. But, Richard said, the scam artist didn't know that the supposed "relative" needing help had died recently.
These scams are a dime a dozen these days, and while many people recognize them for what they are, there are still some who get taken.
I admire Richard for trying to do something to limit the damage these scams can do. He's not alone. I receive at least four phone calls or e-mails here at the Pilot each month from people wanting to warn the public about scams. I occasionally get calls from the police or sheriff's department about scams specific to our area. I also receive regular "Scam Alerts" from the Oregon Department of Justice.
Even charities should be checked. Oregon Attorney General John Kroger recommends that anyone wishing to donate to a charity do some research first. Information is available at www.oregonattorneygeneral.gov. Click on the link: "check on a charity." All charities soliciting money in Oregon must be registered with the Oregon Department of Justice Charities Section.
The fact that these scams keep coming tells me that the perpetrators must be achieving some level of success.
All we can do is stay vigilant and, like Richard, alert others when we can.

Although the existence of the Volkswagen Beetle dates back to the early 1930s, it wasn't until 1949 that the first of what would turn out to be millions would find its way to the US. Sixty-five years ago this month, Dutch businessman Ben Pon, Sr. brought the first Beetle – or Type 1 – to the US, and Volkswagen is marking the occasion not with a special edition, but with a small gallery of images showing a gorgeous '49 Type 1 alongside a 2014 Beetle.

I am a current member of the Baseball Club team here at Iowa State. The last few weeks at practice we have been doing various things out at Cap Timm field to prepare for games. A few of us are curious as to what Cap Timm looked like back in its 'Prime'. So if you have any pictures/Info please post, we are curious about Iowa States Baseball history.
i have a question who do you guys play?
Cyclone state
"Some fans show up for big games, our fans show up for every game, Hoiberg said.
We played 6 games in Florida for spring break show case (Indiana,Wisconsin-Madison,Cincinnati,Lafayette,Purdue,Wisconsin-Milwaukee) All non conference games. Our conference season consists of 4 weekend series with conference teams University of South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota State, and UNI. Each weekend is a 3 game conference series with 4th game non conference. Total of 22 games, 12 conference, 10 non. Regional's made up of 3 conferences in Topeka Kansas (3 Conf champs, 1 at large bid) Nationals then back down in Tampa Bay a few weeks after finals week. All teams we play are D-1 Club teams through the NCBA (national club baseball association) there is also a D-2 Club devision
As someone who played there the last two years I would say that Cap Timm (the field) really had no "Prime". It was kind of an embarassment.
I will post some pics tonight though.
Follow me on Twitter at twitter.com/MarkHanrahan20

and tune into "Extra Innings" Thursdays at 6pm on 1460kxno

Art Venegas' UCLA men's track and field team opens the 2004 collegiate indoor season ranked among the nation's Top 10 teams, according to the latest Trackwire preseason poll, issued this week.
The Bruins are ranked No. 8 in the U. S. (tied with Michigan). Arkansas, the defending men's NCAA Indoor champion, is preseason rated No. 1, followed by No. 2 Stanford, No. 3 Auburn, No. 4 Texas, No. 5 LSU, No. 6 Minnesota, No. 7 Florida and No. 8 UCLA and Michigan. South Carolina rounds out the Top 10.
UCLA opens its 2004 indoor season on Jan. 31 at the Husky Invitational in Seattle. Available online since the 1997 season, the Trackwire 25 has established itself as the most widely respected and reported ranking of Division I collegiate track & field teams. During the collegiate track season, weekly updates are available via email, and free registration is available at www.trackwire.com.
The Trackwire 25 is compiled by respected track & field statistician Gary Verigin. Please contact Gary by email at firstname.lastname@example.com with any comments or corrections.
The Trackwire 25 for Men, including team rankings and projected national meet scores:
1. Arkansas, 62
2. Stanford, 39
3. Auburn, 37
4. Texas, 35
6. Minnesota, 28
7. Florida, 26
=8. Michigan, 23
10. South Carolina, 22
11. Ohio State, 18
12. Texas Tech, 16
13. Tennessee, 15
=14. Indiana, 13
=14. Oklahoma, 13
=14. Wisconsin, 13
=14. Nebraska, 13
=18. Kansas State, 12
=20. Baylor, 11
=20. Colorado, 11
=23. Washington, 10
=23. Kansas, 10
=23. Connecticut, 10
=23. Purdue, 10
The Trackwire 25 projects a hypothetical score for the NCAA meet, factoring in injury reports and other variables supported by information gathered from coaches and NCAA-qualfying competitions across the country. This projection is generated by scoring the Dandy Dozen, a power ranking of the top 12 athletes and relay squads in each NCAA event.
The factors used to build the D12 include quantitative values that measure performances in past major competitions (such as conference championships, national championships and Olympic competition), durability and freedom from injuries, demonstrated ability to compete well in multiple rounds of competition, ability in other events, head-to-head competition with other top athletes, and personal or seasonal bests.
In addition to the Trackwire 25, the D12 is also available to members of our mailing list; subscribe by sending email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Other media are encouraged to report and republish the Trackwire 25, as long as the ranking is clearly identified as the Trackwire 25 and a reference or link to our website URL is included (www.trackwire.com). Also, the Trackwire 25 is properly described as a power ranking, and is not a poll. Media outlets that wish to receive email updates of the Trackwire 25 without receiving our other content offerings should subscribe to our Trackwire25 mailing list by sending email to firstname.lastname@example.com.

If you have plans on attending the Garden Show at the International Exposition Center I suggest you bring your best pair of hiking shoes. The 2014 Great Big Home and Garden Show is exactly what it says it is…BIG. There are over 1,000 experts manning over 600 booths along 16 aisles where you can get advice on any home project that you can think of and some you might get inspired by walking through the show. You have a lot of walking ahead of you, but believe me…it is worth it!
Covering most of the IX Center there is aisle after aisle of crafts, foods, cookware, home repair, modernization…you name it and it's probably here for you to see. After the tougher than usual winter that we have been experiencing lately it is a joy to casually stroll through the various gardens on display. All of the gardens are in the IX Center Annex away from the bright lights and hub-bub of the exhibiter's area. The lighting is subdued and the gardens are absolutely breath taking. It is worth the price of the ticket just to take a break from the bone chilling temps outside to see flowers and plants among the water falls.
There are eighteen garden set-ups this year to take in and they are nothing short of spectacular. The theme this year is "International Gardens" with the countries of Italy, Belgium, United States, Holland and Japan being represented. Another treat is that at the various gardens, featured local restaurants will be on hand serving samples of their specialties.
Some of the features of this year's show are a number of homes have been constructed on site to inspire you with their innovations in construction as well as landscaping. There is the Sophia (a ranch style abode) that is built by Perrino Builders and Interiors, The Idea Home and Dream Basement Landscape Designed by Morton's Landscaping, the Xtend Technologies Dream Basement and a vacation home built by Weaver Barns. All are well worth the time to walk through on a visit.
Other show features include "The Main Stage" where over 36 cooking demonstrations, home remodeling seminars, how to demos and celebrity appearances are happening. Special guests include: Ahmed Hassan from DIY Network's "Yard Crashers" and "Turf Wars", Emily Ellyn from Food Network's "Next Food Network Star" and "Cupcake Wars", Frank Fritz of History Channel's "American Pickers" and Matt Fox from HGTV'S "Room By Room". Check the website at http://www.greatbighomeandgarden.com/GBHG/EventsHome.aspx for the daily schedules as well as purchase tickets for the show.
There are also Celebrity Designer Rooms that were inspired by local television, news and radio personalities that include Kristi Caper from WJW-TV, Macie McInnis from WEWS-TV, Jimmy Malone form WMJI FM Radio, Hollie Strano from WKYC TV and more.
For parents there is a Playground World KidsZone that features slides, swings, basketball hoops as well as the world's safest fully enclosed springfree Trampoline. Parents can also sign up for a drawing to win their choice of one of three high quality products for kids. Also for kids is the Home Depot Kids' Workshop where they can learn to use a hammer while building a small project of their choice. They also receive an official orange working apron to take home. Visit the website for the schedule or stop by booth #971.
When you're finally all tuckered out and foot weary you can take a relaxing break and demonstration in a heated massage chair that will perk you up to see the rest of the huge show. So take a "Spring Break" in the middle of winter and enjoy a little fresh flowers and greenery. You will be glad you did.
The show runs through Sunday, February 16, 2014 and the hours are Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Saturday 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Sunday 10:00 to 6:00 p.m.
Tickets are available on line or at the IX Center and are priced $14.00 for Adults ($11.00 each if you purchase online), $10.00 for Seniors 65+ with ID Monday through Thursday (available only at IX Center Ticket Window), $5.00 for Children age 6-12 and Children age 5 and under are free.

Approximately 6 million Americans are walking around with diabetes and have no idea. That statistic and the drive to educate the public about the facts and myths of the disease have inspired the American Diabetes Association to promote awareness with Alert Day which is today, March 23, 2010. According to Diabetes.org, over 23 million adults and kids have diabetes in this country. That figure makes up almost 8% of our nation's population.
In the spirit of Alert Day, let's look at the some of the facts that surround this life threatening disease. First of all, there are three types of diabetes: Type 1, Type 2, and Gestational. Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed in children and young adults. With this type of diabetes, the body does not produce enough of a hormone called insulin which is needed to convert sugar (glucose) and starches into energy. Only 5-10% of the population have Type 1 diabetes.
The most common form of diabetes is Type 2. This form of the disease is also related to the hormone insulin. Either the body does not produce enough insulin or the body's cells ignore the hormone. Glucose is then left in the body instead of being used for energy. When the glucose builds up in the blood, complications can arise. Unlike Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 of the disease can be prevented or delayed by living a healthy lifestyle. Maintaining a healthy weight, getting plenty of exercise, and eating a balanced diet plays a significant role in the prevention of Type 2 diabetes.
Gestational diabetes happens only to pregnant women at around 28 weeks of pregnancy. This type of the disease requires expectant mothers to closely monitor their blood glucose levels. Pregnant women with gestational diabetes will need to follow special meal plans and maintain a level of physical activity. Gestational diabetes usually goes away after women give birth. However, those women are more likely to have the condition return with future pregnancies.
With Type 2 diabetes being the only form of the disease that is preventable, finding out if you are at risk for the illness is extremely important. The Stop Diabetes web site which is sponsored by the American Diabetes Association, provides a simple and free risk test that can help you determine if you are at risk for Type 2 diabetes. With 1.6 million new diabetes cases diagnosed every year, prevention and determining risk factors of the disease has never been more important.
Take a few minutes and click on the risk test link above to determine if you are at risk for Type 2 diabetes. Why not take it a step further and email the link or this article to loved ones. Mention that today is Alert Day and diabetes awareness is important to their health. Diabetes is a disease that does not discriminate against age or gender. 23.5 million adults over the age of 20 have been diagnosed with diabetes and men and women have been equally affected. Today is the perfect day to increase awareness and encourage prevention.
If you are living in the Metro Detroit area and interested in finding out more about diabetes, there are plenty of resources and organizations at your disposal. For those wanting information on Type 1 or juvenile diabetes check out JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan chapter. Anyone seeking info on all types of diabetes and treatment options, contact Grunberger Diabetes Institute which is located on Woodward Ave. in Bloomfield, Hills.

Chelsea Clinton and Stanford Classmate Jeremy Kane Have a Shared Passion for Politics—and Each Other
In fact, real life got the jump on prime time. Friends say Chelsea, 20, and Jeremy Kane, 21, have been sweethearts at Stanford University for over a year—dining out, going to movies and strolling hand in hand through art galleries. (The White House is mum on whether Chelsea's connections helped Kane land the coveted internship.) "They were best friends before they dated," says his pal Anthony Robinson, adding that the couple met as freshmen. Kane, a classics major, has always been interested in politics, Robinson says; "that's why he and Chelsea hit it off."
One of four children of Jeffrey, 47, a Presbyterian minister, and Carol, 46, a tennis coach, the outgoing, charismatic Kane hails from Los Gatos, Calif. He was the quintessential scholar-athlete, finishing fifth in the 1996 U.S. Olympic swimming trials and graduating from Los Gatos High with a 3.75 GPA in '97. He was a top swimmer in his first two years at Stanford—where Chelsea's previous beau, Matthew Pierce, was a teammate. After suffering dizzy spells, Kane left the swim team last year.
Kane, who worked in the speech-writing department at the White House (mostly doing research), accompanied Chelsea to the Democratic convention in L.A. last month as part of the presidential party, sat by her side at the D.C. Millennium Celebration on New Year's Eve and was spotted back in April at church with her and the President in San Francisco. For now, he's heading back to school while Chelsea takes the quarter off to savor Dad's final days in office and help mother Hillary campaign for the Senate. But the romance still might go the distance. After a Giants game last May in San Francisco, the couple dined with Giants COO Larry Baer. "They were like a couple who's been together for years," he notes. "Lots of people paid attention to Chelsea-but Chelsea paid attention to Jeremy."

I had come to the conclusion that poor Delilah was destined to be attached to me for the school year. When she received her schedule, we had all but three classes together. Seven periods a day with this new girlthe worst part was that her sister was in three of them with us.
Our clique compared schedules after we received them at the assembly. A majority of our group was in remedial classes. Emily was in several honors courses, believe it or not, and I had a mainly academic schedule. Disregarding that massive amount of classes I had with Delilah, I had pre-calculus and lunch with everyone. I had English with everyone but Emily. I had history with Farrah and Bethany. I had Latin with Eleanor.
I had pre-calculus, modern literature, chemistry, art, and journalism with Delilah, not to mention lunch and study period. It was like they were forcing her to follow me around like a puppy dog. It was insanity, to be perfectly honest.
"We're going to be seeing a lot of each other, aren't we?" I smiled at Delilah. She made a sort of wincing face, but then made an effort to smile back. What was with her? Was she really that agitated by my attempt to be nice?
"Just make sure you don't let me get lost in these hallways," she grumbled in a last-ditch effort to be funny. "To tell you the truth, it's more like a maze than a basilica."
Our group was going to be seeing less and less of each other. Emily had all these science classes because she wanted to be a biochemist, the other three were all into art and music, but what was I good for? Writing bad poetry and analyzing old literary gems? I'll admit I'm an English wizard, but that doesn't get you anywhere if you want to go into crisis and addiction interventionism.
Eleanor winked at me as we all found seats in the almost vacant library.
"You know, Mandy," she started blabbering, "you're not going to get better people skills by taking creative classes."
"It's not my fault that this school only has one psychology course," I snapped, "or that I already took it in freshman year. I'll just have to wait until college."
Bethany rolled her eyes. "Oh, dear, you know that's not true. All the physiology courses can be considered into psychology because it deals with the medical field."
"Yeah, Mandy, you make it seem like our school's totally restricted," Farrah backed them up. "Our parents don't pay a huge sum of money for us to get a mediocre education."
Delilah watched us fight in either disgust or admiration. She was too focused for me to tell which one. Emily quietly pulled a chocolate bar from her purse and started eating it nonchalantly, despite the "no food or drink in library" sign.
"Guys," Emily interjected, chomping on the candy. "Chill out. I have hardly any classes with you guys, and you don't see me complaining about getting a schedule change. Suck it up and take it like men!" She puffed out her chest and thumped on it like a gorilla, an action that made us all laugheven Delilah, who seemed to find very little funny.
"Who're we kidding?" I slouched, my body weight shifting as I went further into the chair. "It's so stupid. We're acting like kids, for Christ's sake."
"It's true," Bethany sighed. "Let's all just chill. Sleepover at Mandy's house tonight!" All the girls' reactions were the samelet's all skip the second day of school and eat all the food in the Wright household. It was a common occurrence.
"What do you say, Mandy?" Eleanor smirked. "Are we crashing at your place tonight?" Every one of their faces was contorted in the same expression of excitement.
"Ah, why not," I grumbled. "All of you, at my house, tonight at six. Bring stuff to wear and money to spend because we're going to go on a splurging spree tomorrow
" Delilah passed me a note. It read, "address? text me it @ 526-3847." I nodded in her direction to notify her that it'd get to her somehow. Something, though, told me I'd let her know soon.
The end of the day came quickly. Before I headed to my car, I felt a hand on my shoulder as I was walking.
"Really, thank you so much for letting me come over." It was Delilah. I swiveled around to make eye contact with her. She was so, well, I couldn't say sheltered. She wasn't sheltered, she was just timid. She had this air about her that was rebellious and subtle all at the same time.
"It's alright," I said coolly. "We do this pretty often, actually." Delilah sighed, shrugging her tattered bag further onto her shoulder. "I don't really do much. Diana does so much shit with her friends that I barely get alone time. It's good to meet people like me."
We smiled at each other for a bit, and an awkward silence ensued. "I have to go," I signaled toward my crappy vehicle. "I'll text you the address as soon as I get home, and I'll see you tonight, alright?"
"Alright," Delilah drawled, lingering still. "I'll see you then." She bounded off, rushing off to see her sister standing at a very nice car, very pissed off.
I liked Delilah. I thought she was a sweet girl. I was just worried she would be too dependent on our friendship to further her social standing in a new school.
I sent her my address the moment I walked into my house. Thirty seconds later, I received a smiley face back.
