Turnovers Prove Costly as Trojans Drop Season Opener to Flying FleetNovember 14, 2012
ANDERSON, S.C. – The visiting Flying Fleet scored 22 points off turnovers, as Erskine defeated Anderson, 87-72, before a capacity crowd in nonconference men's basketball action Wednesday night at the Abney Athletic Center.
Anderson (0-1), which opens the season with five consecutive home games, had its win streak versus the Fleet halted at four, while having won 10 of the last 14 meetings. Erskine improved to 2-0 on the young season after defeating the Trojans for the first time since claiming a six-point win in 2010.
Despite being hampered by early foul trouble, senior guard Denzail Jones led all scorers with 26 points on 9-of-18 shooting from the field, while junior Chandler Hash added 10 points. Senior guard CJ Gleaton recorded a team-high seven rebounds and dished out a team-best three assists.
Senior forward Corey Sorrell led five Fleet players in double figures with 23 points, while connecting on 5-of-10 from beyond the arc. Freshman Roderick Perkins and junior guard DeShaun Hall each added 16 points, with junior guard Mike Gabbard chipping in 14 points and recording a game-high six assists on the night. Junior forward Jake Haslem tallied 11 points.
Erskine, which never trailed, took advantage of seven early AU turnovers to jump out to a 13-7 lead on a pair of free throws from Casey Sorrell with 15:43 left in the opening half. The Flying Fleet pushed out to an 11-point advantage two minutes later, before the Trojans rallied to trim the deficit to just 23-20 at the 7:41 mark. Senior forward Bo Holston sparked the surge with a jumper in the paint, while Gleaton capped the 11-3 run with another basket from close range.
But it was as close as the Trojans would get, as Erskine responded with 12 unanswered points to gain a 35-20 advantage with 4:10 on the clock.
Anderson trimmed the 40-28 halftime deficit to nine with more than 16 minutes left in the contest on a 3-pointer from Jones, however the Fleet again countered to quickly retake a double-digit lead and edged out to a 74-52 cushion with 6:46 remaining.
The Trojans held a 37-29 rebounding advantage, but committed 19 turnovers. Erskine shot nearly 51 percent from the field, including 40 percent (12-of-30) from beyond the arc.
Anderson continues its five-game homestand when defending Southeast Region champion Montevallo invades the Abney Center on Saturday. Tip-off versus the Falcons is slated for 6 p.m

Florida Marlins farm system rated among worst in the game
That's according to ESPN.com's Keith Law, who on Thursday revealed his top 100 prospects and ranked organizational talent from one to 30. Only the Brewers in Law's estimation have a weaker farm system than the Marlins, who dropped 19 spots from a year ago.
The Marlins are elated Mike Stanton and Logan Morrison are in the big leagues, but their arrival has left the organization nearly devoid of blue chip prospects. In his 2010 rankings, Law had the power-hitting Stanton No. 5 overall and Morrison was No. 21. Matt Dominguez, who will vie for the Opening Day third base job this spring, also made last year's list at No. 62.
Dominguez was one of two Marlins on Law's 2011 rankings, moving up a few slots to No. 55. First baseman/outfielder Christian Yelich, selected in the first round of last year's draft, was the only other Marlin to crack the top 100 at No. 79. Law's organizational top 10: Dominguez, Yelich, LHP Chad James, LHP Rob Rasmussen, OF Scott Cousins, SS Ozzie Martinez, RHP Jhan Marinez, LHP Brad Hand, LHP Mike Dunn and RHP Josh Hodges.

Today's edition of The Outdoor Wire briefly details two protests that occurred yesterday when literally "nobody was home" to watch, while today's Seattle Times reveals the latest attempt by anti-gunners to create a new fake issue: the so-called "ghost gun."
One of the protests this column learned about late yesterday afternoon at the annual "Media Day at the Range" was held outside the Newtown, Conn., headquarters of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), where there pretty much was nobody to watch because, as the Outdoor Wire pointed out, the NSSF staff is here in Las Vegas for the annual four-day Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade (SHOT) Show, which opens today at the Sands Convention Center.
There was apparently also a very small protest outside of the convention center but, again, nobody was there to pay much attention. With the show not opening until today, the only audience consisted of people setting up for the show, and while this may break the hearts of the protesters, those people really weren't interested. They were busy working.
The Seattle Times report, about new proposed legislation in California targeting so-called "ghost guns" — firearms assembled from allegedly undetectable parts made on 3-D printers — reminds adults in the room that they should not believe in ghost stories. It is reminiscent of the panic that anti-gunners attempted to create about 25 years ago over "plastic guns" that were portrayed as "terrorist weapons."
At the time, gun prohibitionists were talking primarily about Glock pistols, which are not "undetectable" and have become a leading choice of American law enforcement agencies. They have polymer grip frames, steel slides and barrels, and steel mechanisms.
The "undetectable" myth was invented by anti-gunners in an attempt to hoodwink unsuspecting people into supporting legislation the pushed a solution (a gun ban) in search of a problem that did not exist.
At the range, where hundreds of firearms media professionals and some amateur newcomers gathered to examine and shoot many of the new handguns, rifles and shotguns being introduced this week, there was some informal discussion about anti-gunners in search of windmills to tilt.
Not surprisingly, the first few Times reader responses to the story, about California State Sen. Kevin de Leon's effort to require background checks and gun registration "for anyone who builds plastic firearms on a 3-D printer," have been laced with ridicule.
If the protests and the proposed restrictions are any hint of things to come, this is going to be a colorful week in Las Vegas, where sarcastically rolling eyeballs may be as common as rolling dice in the casinos.

After starting out so brightly at the PGA Tour Zurich Classic of New Orleans, former BYU star Daniel Summerhays faded a bit down the stretch to finish out of the Top 20 on Sunday, April 27. Summerhays, a resident of Farmington, Utah, seemed to do everything right to remain in contention going into the final round -- despite news reports of alligators cruising through the nearby swamps.
But ending up at even par through the front nine -- and a bogey on the 6th hole -- did not help Summerhays, who in two years on the PGA Tour has yet to earn a victory. And what went bad on the front nine for him became even worse on the back nine holes of play at Louisiana TPC as he shot over on all but two holes on this course for a 73 score.
That score tied him for 21st place overall at the tournament -- by far the worst golf he had played at the Zurich Classic this weekend. That said, he did pocket over $73,000 for his troubles on these gator-infested greens that saw rookie Seung Yul-Noh earn his first major PGA Tour victory on Sunday.
Might Summerhays time to win his first major be coming in a hurry? It's possible, given his solid and steady play over the past several tournaments -- including a second place finish recently at the Valero Texas Open. He has moved from 41st place in the FedEx Cup standings to a respectable 34th over the past several weeks.
With PGA Tour earnings reaching well over $1 million this year, as well as several big tournaments in the coming months -- such as the TPC Players Championship, the U.S. Open and The Memorial to name a few -- Summerhays should feel good about his game despite a bit of a last-round collapse in the Louisiana heat.

ST LOUIS (LALATE) – 50 Cent is not dead. But 50 Cent is the victim of three fake death reports 2012 surfacing online today. The rapper was the subject of erroneous claims that made news last December; those claimed that he died in a car crash. But today, the rapper is the victim of three fabricated reports, surfacing online, at the time same, from the same source. Fans are more skeptical this time around compared to last year's false claims.
50 Cent didn't die in a car crash on Route 80 today. Nor did the rapper and businessman die in a snowboarding accident in Zermatt. And while "50 in the house" might occur tonight on some dance floors, 50 is not in any Turks and Caicos house, despite claims from yet a third false report.
Fans are asking today if any of three false reports, all from Mediafetcher aka Global, are true. They aren't. Each year, more fake celebrity death reports strike each respective celebrity. Currently there are three reports striking the rapper.
While 50 Cent might not share musical traits with Lil Wayne, he certainly shares one dubious moment making news today. Both have been the victim of a fake Turks and Caicos death report. Featuring an image of a jet ski torn apart on a deserted beach, Global claims that the rapper was in Turks today, that he was on a Jet-ski, and that he sufferered a fatal accident.

If that sounds problematic, it should. Global is also claiming that the rapper today was in Zermatt, Switzerland. That second false report claims that he died during a snowboarding crash. The website claims "this is a totally fake article based on zero truth and is a complete work of fiction".
Global's third fake death report today is also confusing fans. In it, Global claims that the rapper died in a car crash today 2012. The infamous Route 80 crash story has been used for countless music celebrities. For today, Global claims "Highway Safety Investigators have told reporters that 50 Cent lost control while driving a friend's vehicle on Interstate 80 and rolled the vehicle several times killing him instantly."

Since 2008, fake celebrity death reports have taken new form. Originating in false webpage creations, like Global, today fake death reports are sent via Twitter trick, Twitpic fabrications, and even false Facebook assertions. "RIP Beyonce" lead the biggest confusion in fall 2011. For it, one person set up an entire dedicated Facebook profile to falsely proclaim the singer had died.
Fake Twitpic attempts have also confused fans. Some took templates from news sites, and through the wonders of Photoshop, miraculously claimed a celebrity had died.
And finally, the false retweet option has consistently enraged fans. By typing "@RT", dubious authors have claimed that someone else has proclaimed the celebrity has died, even though they haven't.

Whether you are Beyonce, or Lil Wayne, Adam Sandler or 50 Cent, the attempt to falsely claim you have died has taken new form this year. None of these celebrities died today, but fake death reports about them still spiral out of control.

TEXTILES: Kevin Keyes is the Laundry Service Team (LST) leader for Milliken & Co.'s Napery Fabrics Business, Spartanburg, S.C. His team provides technical and marketing support to the textile rental industry. He's been with Milliken for 18 years, having served the first 11 in textile manufacturing.
I'm the Laundry Service Team (LST) leader for Milliken's Napery Fabrics Business, and am responsible for our services in the eastern United States and Canada.
The LST provides technical and marketing support to the textile rental industry. I've been with Milliken for 18 years: 11 years in textile manufacturing and the remainder now with the Napery Business. Prior to leading the LST, I was territory manager over both our Midwest and Northeast territories.
I graduated from Winthrop University in South Carolina with a degree in communications. I've been married 18 years to my wife, Kim, and we have two sons, Christian, 15, and Jacob, 13
A leading international manufacturer, Milliken & Co. is one of the world's largest privately held textile and chemical companies.
Headquartered in Spartanburg, S.C., the company employs more than 10,000 associates working from more than 47 U.S. manufacturing facilities.
Milliken is recognized for its continuous quality improvement process, and the company's progressive, innovative business strategies and reputation for customer service continue to serve as a corporate cornerstone.
In 2004 and 2006, Milliken was named among the "Best Companies to Work For" in FORTUNE magazine's annual listing. Milliken was also named one of the 17 "Safest Companies in America" by Occupational Hazards magazine.
The Milliken Napery Business started in 1978 with the industry's first 100% filament polyester fabric. This was followed by the introduction of Visa® 2x1 Oxford.
In 1996, spun polyester was introduced to the market. In 1999, Milliken brought Signature™ spun/filament to the industry. Signature Plus™ with superior soil release was introduced in 2005. For more than 25 years, Milliken has been leading the industry with product innovation and service.
2006 was the year of Project Green for Milliken. It's a soil- release chemistry that's applied at the laundry to bring its existing Signature inventory up to Signature Plus levels. After this process, laundries can take advantage of lower processing costs due to better soil release.
A key challenge for our business is the continued rise in energy costs. Milliken is providing Project Green and Signature Plus in an effort to save laundries money on energy.
We are also continuing to stress return on investment, helping to improve laundry efficiency and offering value-added services as an alternative to import products with no support at all.CHEMICALS SUPPLY: Tom Storm is vice president of technical development for WSI, Cincinnati, a national company specializing in providing washroom and wastewater chemicals plus accompanying service to commercial laundries. A chemical engineer, Tom has 38 years of laundry industry experience.
I'm a chemical engineer by education and have been developing various washing chemical formulations since 1968. I'm one of the founders and original owners of Washing Systems Inc. (WSI), a national company specializing in providing washroom and wastewater chemicals along with the accompanying service to the commercial laundry industry.
My current position involves providing input to WSI's R&D organization plus being responsible for investigating new technologies that may have potential benefit for the commercial laundry industry. My 38 years of experience has brought me into almost 500 laundries across the United States, Canada and Europe.
The past year produced many challenges, and, hence, opportunities for chemical suppliers. All suppliers were faced with shortages and large price increases of key raw materials. The cost of energy skyrocketed, placing a heavy burden on chemical suppliers as well as commercial laundries. More cost-effective chemical formulations were developed as well as more energy-efficient wash formulas.
A major accomplishment for WSI was the acquisition of JohnsonDiversey's commercial laundry business in both the U.S. and Canada. This greatly expanded our business in Canada and also allowed large-scale expansion of its business base into the healthcare and hospitality areas. A large amount of effort was required to consolidate multiple product lines and manufacturing locations.
Two major challenges for chemical suppliers this year will be the environmental pressure being exerted on the use of alkyl phenol ethoxylates (APEs), the major surfactant type used in commercial laundry products, and minimizing the use of fresh water.
The use of APEs in commercial laundry products has been banned in Europe, and their use in Canada is severely restricted. Although there is considerable data available that indicates these materials are not present in large enough concentrations to be an environmental concern, the debate may likely become academic. A number of local areas have either banned or severely restricted their use, and the number is continuing to grow.
Chemical suppliers will be faced with developing cost-effective alternatives. Current replacements carry a large cost premium. Fresh water can no longer be considered "an unlimited resource." It's becoming very expensive and, even more important, limited in supply.
Many commercial laundries must treat their waste water before discharge at considerable expense. Reuse of that water can help offset those treatment expenses. The challenge that chemical suppliers face is to reuse the maximum amount of water possible without compromising wash quality. Just because water is clear to the eye doesn't mean it will produce a high wash quality.

Heavy rains and quickly melting snow in the Czech mountains have caused Europe's second largest river -- the Danube -- to hit near-record levels, particularly in Romania, Bulgaria and Serbia. Ten thousand Romanians faced evacuation today from low-lying villages, according to Reuters.
Central Europe's Elbe River is also on the rise; according to a spokeswoman for the line, Peter Deilmann's Dresden and Frederic Chopin were unable to operate and have been stationery for the past 10 days; the next seven-night sailings departing April 22 will be operating normally. Deilmann's ships on the Danube have not experienced flood-related itinerary changes, however; both operated as scheduled last week with some minor alterations for operational requirements.
A spokeswoman for Avalon Waterways tells us that because its first lower Danube cruise isn't until the end of June, the company does not anticipate any flood-related itinerary changes. The first river cruise on the upper Danube in early May should sail as scheduled, as high water levels are expected to decrease over the next few weeks.
Viking River does not have any cruises on the Danube until end of April, so no cruises are affected or canceled at this time. A representatives for Uniworld will provide us with information as soon as it becomes available; stay tuned to Cruise Critic for the latest.

User reviews on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic an amazing animation about friendship. I took my five year old to see it and we both enjoyed it very much. The characters are very lovable and entertaining. The main character Twilight Sparkle is so adorable and really funny. The pony Kingdom seemed like a magical place and in the same time it felt real. I laughed with my little girl and I also feel like she learned something about the value of friendship and the message was not forced at all. I wish they had more animations that not only entertain but also teach children about important things in life. My daughter Emily asked my all kinds of questions about friendship and how friends should act, after seeing this animation. I highly recommend to see this movie with your children. I hope you will enjoy it as much as my daughter and I did.

For the past three decades, the message from doctors to people with serious mental illnesses, especially schizophrenia, was grim: You can take medication to reduce symptoms, but you shouldn't expect to have much of a life, and you will probably never have a partner. Very bright patients were told that despite their intelligence, the most they could aspire to was a menial job. All of that is changing. "Mental-health experts used to be far too pessimistic about people's ability to recover because they were focused solely on getting rid of symptoms such as hallucinations," says Stephen R. Marder, MD, professor of psychiatry at UCLA's Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior. "Now the medical community is more aware that people can have residual symptoms and still lead rich, meaningful lives."
Marder and several colleagues are studying 20 high-functioning people with schizophrenia, including a doctor, a psychologist and a CEO. Their research has found that those who thrive share certain traits. "The thrivers understand their symptoms and have adopted techniques to keep symptoms from interfering with their lives," says Elyn Saks, a professor of law, psychology and psychiatry at the University of Southern California Gould School of Law who has schizophrenia. One such technique is for a schizophrenic to stay on track by playing loud music to drown out imaginary voices. "Mental illness," Saks concludes, "doesn't have to consign you to a life on the fringes."
Meet three women who walked through the darkness of mental illness for years but came out on the other side, thanks to personal determination and the right professional help.
Dana Parker-Mathis, 44
Mental-health outreach specialist, Birmingham, Michigan. She has a form of schizophrenia.
Dana Parker-Mathis had always been emotionally fragile. "I took everything way too personally, so I had trouble maintaining close relationships," she recalls. A psychiatrist had diagnosed bipolar disorder and put her on Depakote, an antiseizure drug, and Zoloft, an antidepressant that affects serotonin levels. But the treatment did not provide much help as she went through a major crisis: a 1999 divorce that left her a single mother with a toddler son.
Almost immediately after the split, her mental state took a scarier turn. "I started having thoughts that I was created for a special purpose, to do something great, and I looked for signs everywhere telling me what I was supposed to do," recalls Parker-Mathis, who was then working in the recruiting office of the University of Maryland. In her mind, colors held special significance. Green meant she needed to grow up, orange indicated she should quit smoking, and purple represented her mother. "I thought I had a special skill—a gift for interpreting messages from the universe," she says. "It was both exhilarating and exhausting. I'd drive miles out of my way to chase a truck that I thought had a special message for me." She also believed that people were out to get her and her son, Zachary (now 17), and felt certain her car was bugged and had hidden cameras.
One day in 2002, Parker-Mathis took Zachary to the park and saw a car with its keys in the ignition. "I thought my family, who lived in Michigan, had left the car for me so I could escape from the people watching me. I strapped Zachary in and pulled away from the curb," she says. "As I drove, I saw this guy running alongside me. He was screaming, 'Stop! You're stealing my car!' " She pulled over, and when the man saw her face, he said, "Dana?"
"I didn't know him, but he recognized me because I'd been the first runner-up for Miss Black University of Maryland several years before," she says. "I told him, 'Something's wrong with me,' and he put me in my car—which I'd driven to the park—and followed me home."

David Perdue, the U.S. Senate candidate from Georgia who is in a runoff race for the Republican nomination with U.S. Rep. Jack Kingston (R-Ga), released a new ad today attacking the congressman's voting record as not fiscally conservative. The ad says:
"They arrive with good intentions. So what happened to Jack Kingston? Jack voted to raise the debt ceiling repeatedly, adding trillions to the national debt. He spent our tax dollars on thousands of wasteful earmarks all while voting to raise his own pay seven times.
"Jack's twenty-two years of liberal spending has to stop.
"David Perdue's the true conservative, who'll take on career politicians and the Washington establishment."
Perdue has positioned himself as the outside in the crowded field of GOP hopefuls in the race for the Senate seat being vacated by Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga). Rumor has it, Chambliss decided against seeking another term when some conservative pundits in Georgia vowed to vote him out of office after he worked with the Obama administration to avoid the "fiscal cliff" in December 2012.
A conservative track record certainly helps in Georgia Republican primaries, and the eight GOP candidates argued for months who is more in line with the conservative platform. Perdue ended up winning the primary with 30.6 % of the vote; he was the only top candidate without a voting record, seeking his first public office.
Kingston has been in politics on the state and federal level since 1984. Perdue has argued that if Georgians are tired of Washington they need to stop reelecting career politicians.
Kingston and some local conservatives, such as the former Secretary of State Karen Handel who endorsed Kingston after coming in third in the general primary, have argued that Perdue is part of the corporate America CEOs who are out of touch with average voters and use them for their own financial benefit. Perdue made a career, and got on the Fortune 500 list, running companies such as Dollar General and Reebok.
This is the first ad from Perdue in weeks. The businessman has been most likely holding on to his resources to lay into Kingston closer to the actual runoff, which takes place on July 22. Kingston is supposed to come out with an ad of his own today.
The Georgia U.S. Senate race is one of the most watched contest of the 2014 mid-term elections. Republicans have set out to take over the Senate, so they really need to hold on to strongholds like Georgia. Democrats, on the other hand, really need to hold on to the upper chamber to stay politically relevant for the next two years and winning a state like Georgia would give them the needed boost.
The Republican candidate will face Democrat Michelle Nunn in the general election.

1. We might say that science is simply one way of knowing, and that we can only include things in the course that imply that way of knowing, but empiricism, the idea that data or observation can directly prove something, that it is interpretation-free is a privileged idea that gets a lot more air time than any other way of knowing. Witness the kids in my first-year writing classes who all think they can prove abortion is bad with statistics.
2. We may say that publicaiton in leading journals is the sign of good science, but those who decide what gets published are often biased against certain ideas. Witness an associate who rejected an article without serious consideration because it was about a theory that was counter to what she saw as mainstream research in the are and that she saw as part of a "quack" field of inquiry. I think it would be much harder to be published as a researcher whose conclusions favored ID than as a researcher whose conclusions favored evolution.
3. At the same time, discourse in fields favors certain ideas. At times, it is hard to write about certain ideas/theories without sounding a bit less credible if only because the terms used to describe certain ideas in that field of inquiry label those ideas a less credible.
4. People do often decide to lobby for the inclusion of other ways of knowing in the high school curriculum, but things that question the primacy of empiricism get labeled as religious or radical. Back-to-basics political rallying cries like the no-child fiasco take the thrust out of programs to help kids think about what they are learning, and high school is increasingly a place where kids are expected to simply absorb "facts."
5. My own take–I do believe that evolution is an operative force. I was lucky enough to be taught evolution in a department that was more than half LDS. They never taught ID, but they did keep our minds open on the implications of evolution. Thus I never became defensive about evolution and it wasn't hard for me to believe in evolution and be a member of the church. I must point out that this left a host of possibilities open, and I still believe in a limited view of evolution. The frist presidency has been fairly clear in their statement on the origins of man that man did not evolve from lower forms of life. If I had been taught evolutionary ideas by someone whose agenda was to break down my faith in anything but materialism, I may have reacted very differently when comparing what I had been taught with such first-presidency statements.
There was a really good David O McKay lecture on the subject a little over a year ago at BYU Hawaii. The talk isn't up on the web yet, but there is an article at:
"If irreducible complexist really is an issue then present the argument of irreducible complexity, not the idea that a Designer is the only other option."
The problem is, however, that the argument of irreducible complexity isn't very good. Ruse uses the example of those semi-circular stone bridges. It couldn't have been built piece by piece because it would have collapsed. Therefore, God must have built all semi-circle stone bridges in the world. Not true, because there once were peices supporting the semi-circle and once the stone were all in place the under structure could be taken away, leaving us with what we have now.
The same is true for irreducible design. Organs don't have to be used for the same function and therefore be subject to the same selective pressures forever. Selection works on whatever is available. Not only that, but some parts of an organ, or even an entire organ itself, can disappear if it serves no selective advantage, just like the bridges under structure.
Suddenly, complexity is actually quite reducible indeed. Of course actually saying that systems could have evolved bit by bit is something other than showing that it actually did evolve bit by bit. But this caveat simply reduces the matter to the typical creationist argument that until you show me how each and every thing has evolved gradually I won't budge an inch. This is, as Paulsen has noted, an unstable appeal to ignorance, a Designer of the gaps if you will, who will only exist so long and inasmuch as there are gaps.]]>
Very true!:)]]>
I don't actually want Creationism/ID/religious creation myths taught in school. Trust me folks, I'm very much on the other side of this issue. Completely. I was just trying to make the point that people who feel threatened by evolutionary theory should think about what "science" class is for, and not get caught up in the epistemological battles in the classroom.
I was probably uncharacteristically conciliatory in tone, which led some to think I was more sympathetic for the other team than I really am.
Aaron B]]>
The more troubling aspect of ID is that it doesn't answer who created the Designer. So really they've just shifted the question of where intelligence comes from. Since they didn't like the answer that evolution came up with they've moved the target, but it still doesn't work as scientific theory.
Of course Mormonism allows for an endless recursion of designers designing designers. Oddly enough, Mormonism also includes a form of natural selection in this process…]]>
Mormon kids get get seminary and institute. In college anyone can take philosophy. What more do you want?]]>
I also find his views regarding the theory/fact status of evolution to be very helpful. He separated evolution into 3 aspects: 1) evolution as fact, namely that it happened. This is undisputed among scientists and the evidence is simply overwhelming. To say that evolution happened is but a theory really is ridiculous. 2) mechanisms of evolution, as in how it happened. Right now the main mechanism is supposed to be natural selection, however other mechanisms are occasionally put forth and even accepted. It is possible that natural selection could be over thrown, but it seems really doubtful. 3) path of evolution, what path did a particular species follow in their evolutionary past? Obviously, since there are millions of species which need to be studied, this field is still largely theory. Of course there are holes here, which IDists love to exploit, but this is not because the idea of evolution is flawed. It's only because we are humans who have little access to the past for obvious reasons, and to the present to the limited man-hours. It should be pointed out that Behe's book is entirely based on exploiting this natural gap in our knowledge.
Thus in one sense evolution really is as factual as you could ever hope a science to be, but in other aspects it is theoretical, due to no fault of its own.
I do think that as long as the arguments against evolution go unmet, which is a big qualifier since most of their arguments have been met, these criticisms should be presented, but probably not to high schoolers. This is different from actually teaching Intelligent Design, which can hardly be considered science at all. If irreducible complexist really is an issue (and I personally don't think it is) then present the argument of irreducible complexity, not the idea that a Designer is the only other option.
If the ID's have science to offer, lets see it, but if all they have is a magical "designer" who does all the work, lets recognize it for what it is.]]>
I think many religious people feel comfortable writing off evolution because it is "just a theory." But theory doesn't mean the same thing to scientists that it means to lay people.
Here is some really good info explaining the difference, from http://wilstar.com/theories.htm
(Sorry this is so long, but this is such a pet peeve, that I have to post it. Delete it if you must…)
Three such terms that are often used interchangeably are "scientific law," "hypothesis," and "theory."
In layman's terms, if something is said to be "just a theory," it usually means that it is a mere guess, or is unproved. It might even lack credibility. But in scientific terms, a theory implies that something has been proven and is generally accepted as being true.
Here is what each of these terms means to a scientist:
Scientific Law: This is a statement of fact meant to explain, in concise terms, an action or set of actions. It is generally accepted to be true and univseral, and can sometimes be expressed in terms of a single mathematical equation. Scientific laws are similar to mathematical postulates. They don't really need any complex external proofs; they are accepted at face value based upon the fact that they have always been observed to be true.
Some scientific laws, or laws of nature, include the law of gravity, the law of thermodynamics, and Hook's law of elasticity.
Hypothesis: This is an educated guess based upon observation. It is a rational explanation of a single event or phenomenon based upon what is observed, but which has not been proved. Most hypotheses can be supported or refuted by experimentation or continued observation.
Theory: A theory is more like a scientific law than a hypothesis. A theory is an explanation of a set of related observations or events based upon proven hypotheses and verified multiple times by detached groups of researchers. One scientist cannot create a theory; he can only create a hypothesis.
In general, both a scientific theory and a scientific law are accepted to be true by the scientific community as a whole. Both are used to make predictions of events. Both are used to advance technology.
The biggest difference between a law and a theory is that a theory is much more complex and dynamic. A law governs a single action, whereas a theory explains a whole series of related phenomena.
An analogy can be made using a slingshot and an automobile.
A scientific law is like a slingshot. A slingshot has but one moving part–the rubber band. If you put a rock in it and draw it back, the rock will fly out at a predictable speed, depending upon the distance the band is drawn back.
An automobile has many moving parts, all working in unison to perform the chore of transporting someone from one point to another point. An automobile is a complex piece of machinery. Sometimes, improvements are made to one or more component parts. A new set of spark plugs that are composed of a better alloy that can withstand heat better, for example, might replace the existing set. But the function of the automobile as a whole remains unchanged.
A theory is like the automobile. Components of it can be changed or improved upon, without changing the overall truth of the theory as a whole.
Some scientific theories include the theory of evolution, the theory of relativity, and the quantum theory. All of these theories are well documented and proved beyond reasonable doubt. Yet scientists continue to tinker with the component hypotheses of each theory in an attempt to make them more elegant and concise, or to make them more all-encompassing. Theories can be tweaked, but they are seldom, if ever, entirely replaced.]]>

Whether you plans are on land or sea you want to look good. The beach babe look is always in season. No matter your coloring, with just a few simple tips that work for everyone your sure to be catching cute sailors in no time.
If your in the sun you always want to make sure to have SPF. Many face and lip makeups already have an SPF in them, but make sure to check before you purchase don't just assume. If you plan on wearing cover up mineral makeups work best in higher temperatures. Liquid foundation is more likely to enlarge pours do to percipitation of the skin. There's nothing worse than sweaty caked makeup. The best spring look is natural looking makeup with a bronzer applied lightly to the parts of the face where the sun hits, basically your t zone and the outer edges of the hairline. Highlighters are great for the sunshine too. If your darker completed you can skip the bronzer and just apply a highlighter. Highlighter look resilient on all skin and is placed along the same areas as you would apply your bronzer. Powered highlighters give a glow to the skin and liquid highlight give the face a dewy look that is very sexy.
When it come to your eyes choose a waterproof mascara and liner, no raccoon eyes here. For spring pinks, golds and browns fit the bill. Any of these colors on the eyes, lips or even a dust on the cheeks complement a natural look. Whatever style you choose for the spring the most important thing to remember is to take care of your skin when your out in the sun. Apply a sunscreen and drink lots of water to keep it looking its best.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
And I loved the movies also.
I probably would have liked The Thin Man by Dashiell Hammett much more if I hadn't had the excellent 1934 movie of the same name to compare it with. Nick and Nora Charles are so firmly planted in my brain as William Powell and Myrna Loy that it was difficult to accept the print version, which was slightly different.
The bond between this married couple is there in the print version and some of the humor but the light touch of sophistication, the twinkle in William Powell's eye, the clever sassiness of Myrna Loy, and most importantly the charisma between these two actors was lacking in the book version.
The plot is shrouded in a web of lies and deceit that Nick has to sift through in order to find the murderer in this convoluted mystery. I did however, find the women characters of Dorothy and her mother, Mimi, very interesting and well done. Overall I prefer the more hard boiled noir style of Sam Spade, but Nick Charles, with his laid back observations and his ability at reading people certainly got the job done. The sheer amount of liquor that Nick and Nora consumed, along with their odd lifestyle was strangely fascinating to read about.
Although not as much fun as the movies I found The Thin Man had enough charm and wit to make it a worthwhile read.
Nick and Nora Charles have come to New York from San Francisco for Christmas and New Year's Eve when they become drawn into the murder of a missing mad scientist's secretary and the antics of his crazy family and other colourful characters. The plot and mystery thickens as various suspects show up but aren't easy to pin to the murder. Nick hasn't been a sleuth in a number of years, and this is the first time Nora's been in on any type of case. There is plenty of alcohol, fighting and all night antics during this investigation.
I liked this better than I had expected, given that I'm not generally big on hard boiled detectives in books. Perhaps because I was tired and exhausted while reading this, dropping off for several unplanned naps, or perhaps because it was so well done, but I really didn't clue into the real perpetrator myself for once. I read this for a Nora and Nick challenge, and it was a rather fun read.
This was a very good mystery by Dashiell Hammett. I liked the characters and the plot was very good. It was a page-turner to the very end and the killer was a complete surprise. Although The Thin Man was very good, I think I like The Maltese Falcon better. That being said, I definitely will be reading more of Hammett's mysteries as I like his style of writing very much.
Nick and Nora Charles are on vacation in New York City when Nick becomes embroiled in the murder of s ecretary of his former client.A good pulp mystery with a satisfying conclusion.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0679722637, Paperback)The Thin Man, Dashiell Hammett's classic tale of murder in Manhattan, became the popular movie series with William Powell and Myrna Loy, and both the movies and the novel continue to captivate new generations of fans.
Nick and Nora Charles, accompanied by their schnauzer, Asta, are lounging in their suite at the Normandie in New York City for the Christmas holiday, enjoying the prerogatives of wealth: meals delivered at any hour, theater openings, taxi rides at dawn, rubbing elbows with the gangster element in speakeasies. They should be annoyingly affected, but they charm. Mad about each other, sardonic, observant, kind to those in need, and cool in a fight, Nick and Nora are graceful together, and their home life provides a sanctuary from the rough world of gangsters, hoodlums, and police investigations into which Nick is immediately plunged.
A lawyer-friend asks Nick to help find a killer and reintroduces him to the family of Richard Wynant, a more-than-eccentric inventor who disappeared from society 10 years before. His former wife, the lush and manipulative Mimi, has remarried a European fortune hunter who turns out to be a vindictive former associate of her first husband and is bent on the ruin of Wynant's family fortune. Wynant's children, Dorothy and Gilbert, seem to have inherited the family aversion to straight talk. Dorothy, who has matured into a beautiful young woman, has a crush on Nick, and so, in a hero-worshipping way, does mama's boy Gilbert. Nick and Nora respond kindly to their neediness as Nick tries to make sense of misinformation, false identities, far-fetched alibis, and, at the center of the confusion, the mystery of The Thin Man, Richard Wynant. Is he mad? Is he a killer? Or is he really an eccentric inventor protecting his discovery from intellectual theft?
The dialogue is spare, the locales lively, and Nick, the narrator, shows us the players as they are, while giving away little of his own thoughts. No one is telling the whole truth, but Nick remains mostly patient as he doggedly tries to backtrack the lies. Hammett's New York is a cross between Damon Runyon and Scott Fitzgerald--more glamorous than real, but compelling when visited in the company of these two charmers. The lives of the rich and famous don't get any better than this! --Barbara Schlieper

This small, and intimate place understands its customers and is a great representation of chef Melissa O'Donnell who's a native New Yorker. This 800 square foot space designed by Chef Melissa, holds 50 seats, and it is meant to emulate walking into her own home. Her goal is to have a comfortable, open space for guests of all kinds to stop by and enjoy a meal at the tasting table or a late night snack at the bar.
Lets get to the meats and bones of Thelma on Clinton which is the FOOD, I started my night with the Lower East Side Car which is a cocktail made from Brandy, Orange liqueur, fresh lemon, cinnamon and a sugar rim, along with the cocktail I had a starter dish the 'Honey glazed dates wrapped in bacon'. Both drink and dish were delicious, I also had the Miso glazed codfish, bok choy, Chinese spiced braised duck wings, and Braised short ribs, marrow bone. As far as drinks I sampled The Tenement, The Jones, and The Five Points.
Overall, the drinks and food were amazingly prepared and delicious. My only draw back was the House kippered salmon and beet tartare, the salmon was slightly dry. For information on restaurant hours, menu, cocktails and the different wines they offer visit their website www.thelmaonclinton.com. Lastly Thelma on Clinton is perfect for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd date, the staff and chef are extremely courteous and treat their customers like they matter, I highly recommend.

Reasons why the JK2 community is NOT dying

I really have a lot of sympathy for the first type, the bloke who can't get a game. There was that fellow from Hawaii, I think his name was Hiteche... Yeah, poor guy couldn't find a game with a decent ping. The best he could do was a 200ms lag affair on the Zone, so I have nothing but sympathy for him and his ilk.
Yep, that would be me. Now for the record. I just want to say is that for some people "die" has different definitions. I think the game is starting to weed out those who just wanted to see some Star Wars game. The servers are starting to trim down and some people take that as the game is dying.
I know for a fact that the mod community is still active. I just would like to see more servers in my area. Or people join the "PC Bang" server ( I will have to look up the IP for posting) This server I pour some money into but no one seems to play on it. Some one tell me...is the ping to high? Settings? Give me a ring and I'll change it.
BTW, Wookie Beer party is up again. Jump on that too. I hope to see you guys around.

Steve Lacy: No Baby
No Baby
Steve Lacy (soprano sax)
Raps (Adelphi 5004)
Steve Lacy (soprano sax), Steve Potts (soprano sax), Ron Miller (bass), Oliver Johnson (drums).
Composed by Steve Lacy.
Recorded: New York, January 29, 1977
Rating: 92/100 (learn more)
Like many an American jazz musician before (and after) him, Steve Lacy found Europe to be a more agreeable place to ply his trade. He moved there to stay in 1965; he would not live in the U.S. again for many years. He did pay the occasional visit, however. "No Baby" comes from the 1977 album Raps, which was recorded in the immediate aftermath of a week-long series of performances at Ali's Alley in New York.
One of the wittier items in his discography, "No Baby" begins with drummer Oliver Johnson verbally intoning the title over and over, as if scolding an errant toddler on the verge of committing some childish misdemeanor. The chant morphs into the simple three-against-four motive (played by the twin sopranos) which makes up the tune. Potts takes the first solo. He sounds a great deal like Lacy—working against the pulse rather than riding on top of it, cleanly articulating his deceptively simple melodic ideas—yet you realize he's not, the instant Lacy's distinctive, astringent tone enters the fray. The saxophonists make a terrific team, rather like an old married couple completing each other's sentences. Johnson plays hard and loud. One can imagine in a live setting he might be overbearing, but with the sax and bass volume essentially normalized by the recording process, his contribution is actually quite exciting. In later years, Lacy would employ more conventional drummers than Johnson, but none had the capacity to generate more intensity. This is visceral stuff, demonstrating that Lacy's inspiration never flagged, even in a high-energy context.

Brian Tilzer will discuss mobile tactics at the Internet Retailer conference.
Office supplies giant Staples, No. 13 in the Internet Retailer Mobile Commerce Top 300, last year redesigned its app for iPhone and Android. It did so because it thinks ahead as far as possible in the fast-evolving world of mobile commerce. It knew its app had to have the latest features and functions to appease smartphone-owning consumers, who generally have high expectations of anything mobile.
"This is a complete revamp of our app; we focused on the biggest pain points of shopping. We believe this app will become the ultimate shopping companion for our small business customers," said Brian Tilzer at the time of the redesign. Brian is vice president of e-commerce and business development for Staples.com and will keynote the Mobile Commerce Workshop at the Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition June 5-8 in Chicago.
Brian leads e-commerce and m-commerce for Staples.com. He's also responsible for the planning and development of the online experience for two of Staples' cross-channel corporate growth initiatives, Copy and Print and Office Technology. Additionally, he's charged with developing new business opportunities to further grow the Staples.com business. Previously at Staples, Brian served as vice president of strategy of the North American delivery leadership team.
As part of the app redesign, Staples added mobile check-ins. The check-ins are similar to those conducted on popular mobile social apps such as shopkick and foursquare. A Staples customer opens the app on her iPhone when near or in a Staples store, and the app, through the iPhone's GPS technology, senses her location. The app then displays a special offer that can be used in that store.
Staples also added a bar code scanner to the app. Now, rather than type in product names to add items to a cart, or write down product names in the supplies closet on a piece of paper to later find items on the PC site, a customer can scan the bar code on a product in her office and the item automatically displays onscreen. The customer presses a scan button to activate the feature; she points her smartphone camera at the code and the app reads it and retrieves the appropriate information.
"We want to be a real leader in mobile commerce," Tilzer says. "We are investing like crazy. We are tripling the size of our e-commerce team, and mobile is the tip of the spear of initiatives we are pursuing to continue to innovate and be a real leader in the space."
Plan now to attend IRCE and its Mobile Commerce Workshop to learn from Brian and 14 other workshop speakers. It will be a jam-packed day of strategies and tactics you can take right back to the office and put to use. Whether you're new to mobile commerce or have been in the game a few years, this workshop will offer you tremendous benefits.

The TYR Anti-fog Spray keeps your goggles clear and fog-free.
It works.
Need to spray the lens and let it dry.
Frederick, MD

Your comment has been posted.
It works!
This is an antifog lens cleaner, and I've used it on regular glasses and my goggles. It works very well, and is very effective...so much, in fact, that some of my swim buddies are requesting to use it all of the time! My only disappointment is that it's such a small bottle, and didn't seem full when I purchased it. Even before sharing, it seemed that a couple sprays, and bottle quickly depleting. I'd rather pay a little more and get a bigger bottle! But, I really like the product...
SanJacinto, CA
Didn't impress me. Applied as bottle stated and about 800 yards into my swim = fog. I'll keep looking for one that works
Fit: Feels true to size
Does not work
First time I have tried this brand, does not come close to working very well. Have followed instructions to a tee as well as trying other methods. Does not do the job!!
Dick R
See Clearly
This stuff works great! If you put a little spritz into each lens, wipe it around with a soft cloth (I use some part of my t-shirt) and let it dry for a minute, your lenses stay fog-free for the whole workout! (I don't know how well it works if you have leaky goggles.)
Las Cruces, NM
This stuff works great. Spray it in before you swim, wiping out the excess liquid. No fog or weird residue from the spray. Myself and my triathlon buddies have had great results using this. Have used on Speedo goggles, Swedes, Nike and aquasphere.
TYR anti fog spray
This stuff works great. The best of any I've tried.
Worse that applying nothing to goggles
I have gone through two bottles of TYR anti-fog spray in the past and it worked fine. The last bottle, however, in about ten uses, had zero anti-fog ability. My goggles actually fogged up faster than when I applied nothing. I threw the bottle away.
Dr. MEMS
San Jose, CA
It works good as I expected
Hoang L.
Novato, CA
Goggles were Brand New
New goggles still fogged a little after 30-40 mins.I don't know if this spray works any better than spit or toothpaste. Not completely satisfied, that's for sure.

Founded in Southern California in 1985, TYR™ has since developed a reputation for high-quality products and equipment. TYR competition swimwear and triathlon gear have been a dominant force in their respective industries. The company is also known for its TYR goggles, swim apparel, triathlon wetsuits and a wide variety of swimming equipment.
TYR was the first company to introduce a pair of goggles designed to fit a woman's face (the TYR T-72). TYR was also responsible for the famous red bathing suits featured on the hit television series "Baywatch." TYR consults with current and former athletes when developing its products. Swimmers know that TYR is a leader in swimsuits, warm-up suits, and swim training equipment. The TYR Tracer Series is one of the most advanced technical suit lines on the market. The TYR Hurricane wetsuits and the TYR Torque collections include top-of-the-line suits for the competitive swimmer.
TYR has also moved into competitive running equipment. From running shirts to shorts, its apparel is designed with the runner in mind. Built with moisture wicking fabric and antimicrobial material, TYR running apparel is designed to give the athlete the most comfortable, dry clothing on the market.
The name "TYR" is derived from the Norse god of warriors, who is said to have embodied victory and glory. Much the same can be said about the athletes who started TYR. Executive Vice President, Steve Furniss, was an Olympian who competed in the 1972 and 1976 Summer Games, and captained the 76th U.S. Olympic Swim Team.

It's an obscene amount of money to spend on something you're going to use to wipe barbecue sauce off your face, but we can't help ourselves. We love these Seersucker Napkins ($72) from Kim Seybert. It's their light, summery feel - or possibly their perfectly contrasting stitching. Maybe we'll just put them on the table for show and then force everyone to use paper towels instead.

Tyler Shealey of Rockledge, Fla., took top honors at the 18th Annual Jim Bokor Islamorada All-Tackle Bonefish and Redfish Shootout that ended March 15 with four "slams."
In an all-release event where point-earning rules dictate that to earn the title of grand champion the winner needs a "slam" consisting of a redfish and bonefish combination, Shealey and Captain Steven Tejera of Key Largo, Fla., clinched the win with four slams. The duo also caught and released the event's largest bonefish at 27.5 inches.
Runner-up grand champion honors went to veteran tournament angler Jim Bokor Jr., of Buffalo, N.Y., with Key Largo's Captain Jared Raskob at the helm. The team landed three slams and secured awards for the most bonefish on bait and most bonefish released, each earned for four bones.
Bob Glidden of Clarence Center, N.Y., and Islamorada's Captain Dave Denkert took trophies for the largest redfish at 31.5 inches and the most released redfish on artificial with 37.
A field of 16 boats participated in the event, with anglers coming from mainland Florida, New York, Texas, Indiana and Massachusetts. A total of 17 bonefish and 182 redfish were released over three days of fishing.
The long-running tournament is named in recognition of Jim Bokor Sr., for his flats-fishing prowess and passionate support of Keys angling.
The 2015 event is set for March 10-13.
Upcoming tournaments include the Spring Fly Bonefish in Islamorada. Email email@example.com for an invitation.

This is another of my weekly features on our new Facebook Souvenir Application. This week's souvenir is the shark's tooth.
You may not know this but several of our Virginia State Parks are superb hunting grounds for fossilized Shark's teeth like the one pictured above. The parks are Westmoreland State Park and Caledon Natural Area on the Potomac River, York River State Park on the York River, and Chippokes Plantation State Park on the James River.
Shark teeth hunting at Westmoreland State Park
You may not know that usually it is illegal to remove plants, minerals or artifacts from any of our state parks. These parks and fossils from the beach are one exception. The other exception is last week's souvenir, the fairy stone. These artifacts are exceptions because they are plentiful.
The parks offer programs on the history of the fossils including some hands-on searching on the beach.
A collection of shark's teeth found at Westmoreland State Park
Send a Virginia State Park's shark's tooth or one of the other souvenirs to your friends on Facebook today. You can access the application by clicking here or find it on our Facebook page on the left side under the photo.
