Staff report
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife will investigate the cause of a boat's capsizing Saturday on Mosquito Lake and drowning of a Pennsylvania hunter.
The man who drowned, Daniel Khalil, 35, was originally from Pittsburgh but recently had moved to the area for a job in the shale industry, said Dennis Lewis, Bazetta fire chief. The other two men who were on the boat with Khalil remained unidentified, but both had hypothermia from their time in the water and were taken to St. Joseph Health Center.
The investigation may never be able to determine exactly what happened, Lewis said. With two survivors, however, authorities might be able to get some answers, he added.
The three men were out on the lake hunting ducks when the boat overturned. The two survivors were found by hunters near West Main Street in Cortland on the eastern side of the lake.
Khalil's body was found 101/2 hours after the initial call was made to emergency crews about a possible drowning. None of the men was wearing a life preserver at the time the boat capsized.
As a long-time boater, I do not know why an adult would be in a boat in November without wearing a PFD. The new 'life-vests' are not bulky, and do not hamper movement. NO EXCUSE-can't use cost as an issue-you can afford the licenses for the boat,hunting permits, gas to get there. Hopefully some wiser family members will purchase a PFD for the survivors as a 'Christmas gift'. Or not.

If you own a street rod, an antique, a high performance exotic, or a muscle car, you should consider a classic car insurance policy. If your household and your vehicle qualify, you could save a bundle of money over a conventional auto insurance policy.
In order to obtain a classic car insurance policy, your household must qualify. The car in question should be strictly pleasure use and be an additional car in the household. For instance, if there are two drivers in the household, each driver should have a regular use vehicle as well as the classic car. One of the regular use vehicles must have physical damage coverage (comp & collision) and be a fairly new car. All drivers on a classic car policy are required to have at least 10 years of driving experience with minimal activity on the driving record, and drivers with less than 10 years experience are excluded from coverage.
Here are the vehicles that could qualify for a classic car policy:
Exotic: Vehicle is 14 years old or less, be a luxury performance car, considered collectible, and be appreciating in value.
Modifieds: At least 20 years old or a replica of a vehicle 20 years or older. Extensive mechanical or cosmetic alterations.
Classics: 15 to 24 years old in its original or close to original condition.
Antiques: Must be 25 years or older and in original or close to original condition. This includes muscle cars.
Depending on the amount of coverage requested, a recent apparaisal might be in order, and full color photographs of all four sides are required for all vehicles.
If you meet these qualifications, and you have a high value collectible car, you will be surprised by the premiums you will save!

The new-look Rolls-Royce has ticked off its first decade in business since relaunching under BMW ownership with the most potent car in its history, the Wraith coupe. The Wraith heralds a major new innovation for the company in its Satellite Aided Transmission (SAT), which gives its 8-speed ZF gearbox the ability to plan the drive ahead according to GPS data. We recently had the chance to take a closer look at Rolls-Royce's latest two-door lounge.Read More
Honda had already proved you could build a so-called "everyday supercar" in the NSX. Fifteen years later, Audi set off down the same route with its efforts resulting in the introduction of the R8 in 2006. Leveraging its Lambo connection, the company dropped a retuned Gallardo V10 into the R8 bodyshell for model year 2009. MY13 brought a model overhaul with the arrival of the faster, lighter R8 V10 plus, which we had the pleasure of putting through its paces.Read More
Toyota is gearing up for a worldwide onslaught of hybrid vehicles in 2012 - part of a strategy to put out no less than ten new hybrids by 2015. The company has already begun launching hybrid versions of the Yaris light platform, the Auris/Corolla hatch and the medium Camry sedan in larger markets across the world - Japan, Europe and the US. But the most prominent (and branding wise the most important) is the expanded Prius family - Prius, Prius+ and Prius Plug-in Hybrid. Read More
McLaren's MP4-12C is out and the company is pleased by a worldwide order book of 1700-plus units. It's a remarkable car in many ways, not least for being the first tilt at genuine populism from the only brand that matches or exceeds Ferrari for Formula One-derived brand cachet. That's not to say they're pitching it against the Toyotas and the like. But where the company's last own-branded effort, the F1, brought pure race-car values to the road – right down to the ever-controversial ground-effect aerodynamics – the 12C serves up the broadest of dynamic spectra, at the mere touch of a couple of buttons. It's designed as genuinely well-rounded personal transport, able to negotiate the peak hour bumper-to-bumper as well as it might the Laguna Seca corkscrew.Read More
What's it like to drive a hydrogen powered car? It depends on which one. In the case of BMW's Hydrogen 7, essentially a 760i with its 6.0 liter V12 tweaked to burn hydrogen instead of petrol, one might suspect it's pretty much like the donor vehicle. In the case of Mercedes-Benz's B Class-based F Cell, powered by electricity from a lithium-ion battery pack fed by an on-board fuel cell, you might think different.Read More
Having crossed Europe and North America, the Mercedes-Benz F-Cell roadshow is now in Australia where the green-painted B-Class F-CELL cars are making the long trek from Sydney to Perth. Surrounding the small fleet is an entourage of more than a dozen vehicles including SUVs, Sprinter vans set up as mobile workshops and refuel stations and a semi-trailer laden with striking red full-length cylinders of hydrogen.Read More
The aircraft with one of the world's most recognizable silhouettes turned 40 a couple of years ago. That's getting long in the tooth even in an industry whose products use the grandpa's axe principle like no other – as in, it's had six new heads and four new handles, but grandpa still loves that axe. But is Boeing's 747 looking towards the pasture? Not on Boeing's life. The company just this week announced the successful maiden flight of the 747-8 Intercontinental, the passenger version of a plane that takes the grandpa's axe principle to new extremes. Over more than three decades, the 747 evolved from the original 100 series through 200, 300 and 400 series, integrating technological upgrades and spawning new variants along the way. NASA even uses one, the SR, to piggyback space shuttles into the air.Read More
It only takes a glance at Lamborghini's Aventador to know it's a Lambo. In fact, it inherits from the long-toothed Murcielago the mantle of top-bull in Italian marque's lineup. And with it, beneath the latest interpretation of Lambo's hallmark body origami – yes, the scissor doors remain – comes the technical shiz it needs to fill such a spot. Engine, transmission, suspension, bodywork – it's completely clean-sheet new. All up, they conspire to put the Aventador at the pointy end of the performance spectrum – the first anything-like-mainstream car to kiss 100 km/h in less than three seconds (we're not counting its step-sibling, the Bugatti Veyron, in its class).Read More

Is there anyone here, does anyone know?
Can anyone feel the touch of the love of God?
Has any eye seen, has any heart changed?
Can anyone stand in praise, can anyone stand and say?
Your love is a raging fire
Your touch is a soothing rain
Your kindness has turned my heart
And I am changed
Your mercy's a river wide
Your cross is an open door
Your blood says, I'm justified
And I am Yours
So who will declare the glory of God?
So who will cry out unashamed He is glorious?
'Til every eye sees, 'till every heart knows
Let everyone stand in praise, everyone stand and say

Generating Custom Resource Bundle Entries
By Sandra Muller on Nov 29, 2006
In JHeadstart jspx pages, you can reference entries in the JHeadstart resource bundle (usually called ApplicationResources.properties), using the EL expression #{nls['KEY']}, where KEY is the key of the desired resource bundle entry.
Manually adding your own messageIf you want to add your own message, you can of course write an entry in the resource bundle:
CONFIRM_DELETE=Are you sure you want to delete this row?
Then you can use this message in your JSF page by specifying:
Generating the message into the pageThe next level is to include this EL expression in a custom Generator Template. For example when adding a warning message to a delete button, which is also described in Lucas Jellema's post Generate 'Delete with Confirmation' in JHeadstart applications.
In the Velocity Generator Template for your custom Delete Button you could use something like:
onclick="return confirm('#{nls['CONFIRM_DELETE']}');"
That way you can generate the page, but you would still have to add the message manually to the ApplicationResources.properties file.
Generating the message into the Resource BundleOne step further is to use the JHeadstart routine JHS.nls in your Velocity template. This method in the JhsVelocityContext class (see the JDeveloper Help menu, JHeadstart Documentation Index, Javadoc of the JHeadstart Application Generator) has many overloaded variations. The simplest takes two String arguments:
nls(java.lang.String s, java.lang.String key)
It creates a resource bundle entry KEY=s, and returns #{nls['KEY']}. In the delete warning example you would put in the generator template:
onclick="return confirm('${JHS.nls("Are you sure you want to delete this row?", "CONFIRM_DELETE")}');"
And it would create a resource bundle entry
CONFIRM_DELETE=Are you sure you want to delete this row?
You can make it more specific for each group while keeping it generic, by changing it to (suggested by Aino Andriessen):
onclick="return confirm('${JHS.nls("Are you sure you want to delete this ${JHS.current.group.displayTitleSingular}?", "${JHS.current.group.name}_CONFIRM_DELETE")}');"
This will result in (example for the Customers group):
onclick="return confirm('#{nls['CUSTOMERS_CONFIRM_DELETE']}');"
and a resource bundle entry
CUSTOMERS_CONFIRM_DELETE=Are you sure you want to delete this Customer?
When the user clicks the Delete button, (s)he will see this:

Tomorrow, we will have three weeks under our belt with Jessie. This week has seen a couple relapses and some bad behavior, but also positive strides. It's way too early to look for miracles.
Jessie has improved in her general temperament and really feels more at home and less frightened. She is a very loving girl and wants to be with us all the time. An improvement in
Jessie is being a bit less frenzied over food, she gets plenty, but trying to not let her weight get too out of hand. She is eating lots of veggies as a supplement to all her other food. Jessie likes them cooked and fresh for treats. This includes salad, carrots green beans and beets for sure. Fostering Jessie, for the most part has been a joy.
She has become a wonderfully loyal dog and that is one of her most special qualities. She wants to be with you much of the day and even sleeping, usually is by your feet or side. When we are gone for a couple hours and we come home, the greeting is as though she was always with us.
She believes her job is to show you affection, 24/7 and does her best to do it. She loves to lick your face and there never is a shortage of doggy kisses. Her bad habit in this respect is that she will put her legs on you intending to jump up. Maybe I'm just old and fragile, but she is pretty heavy for a small dog. This, I would think is one of the things her new owner needs to address with training.
Although there have been two potty accidents this week, the potty problems are under control but still not completely fixed. She forgets when she is playing hard and comes in before she completed this task, then there is an accident. Most morning problems are gone. New owners need to accept that this sweet dog still needs work.
She likes to play, but Mr. Owen is not always ready to when she is and then she gets pretty aggressive regardless of the fact he makes about six of her. Still trying to play with the cats, but her chasing, lunging at them and trying to give them little bites has not endeared her to them. Maybe a cat-less house would be best. It is mostly curiosity but, she does look like she might hurt them so it is better to be safe.
Since our house is small, there are few places for anyone to get away from each other. I cannot lock her in a room and only do so when we need to go away. Not wanting to crate her now at this age and since she already was locked up for weeks, I just need to be more observant and use the word 'no' frequently.
Though sometimes slow to obey, she does stop when told 'no' but, it does not always last long. Commands or cues are better obeyed at some times than others and just simply needs more time for those to click for her.
The most important thing new owners should know is that Jessie must not be alone for very long or she, like human kids, gets bored and then in trouble. Even though I work at home, I cannot be with her every second. If you are petting, feeding or playing with her, she is good. When she finds an indestructible toy to chew she is occupied and so fine. It is when she does not get enough attention for a while that she finds something to chew and that is her way to voice her displeasure.
Toys of the wrong kind still get destroyed easy since she seems to need to chew when stressed or bored. We are trying to use 'gentle' as a cue to be more kind to the toys. This week she also chewed an old blanket on our bed so now that door remains closed most times.
She also gets the word calm thrown at her when she gets too rambunctious since we already have one of those in the house. We have not had training yet so I am improvising with techniques. Some are successful and some are not. We are both learning.
Sounds like Jessie is bad but, that is not so. She is still young at a year old and still untaught which accounts for her current difficulties. I can see Jessie as a beautiful companion and adoring pet in a house where she is worked with and loved. She will benefit from training and the new owner will need to do that with her. I believe she will be very protective of her owners.
Her ideal home would not have cats or small kids; she does fine with teens, but is really untested with young children. She may do well as the only dog since she doesn't like to share our time with Mr. Owen and has to get in the middle of any petting of him. Though she has lots of alone time with me during the day, not so much time with grandpa is available most days.
Jessie has really learned to love her grandma and grandpa and hopefully she will start in her new home before the attachment gets any stronger. We are learning to love her, but not totally sure if we are her ideal home. She will be a loving pet to anyone who cares for her and keeps her fed and protected.
Keep Jessie on your list of dogs to investigate when choosing a shelter dog. You can call All Breeds to get more info at 719-264-6460.

I would like to stop syncing my iPad with my MBP & start syncing it with my iMac instead; when one connects an iOS device with a machine other than the one they previously synced with they get a message saying that they should erase & sync their device. Is there a way to sync my device to my iMac without erasing all my data first; PS. the MCP & the iMac share the same library.
I tried many different approaches but none of them worked, had to erase & sync
If the two libraries are really the same, throw away the iOS backups and iTunes folder on the "new" mac and just move the two folders from the old mac to the new one when iTunes isn't running.
If they're not the same, use Home Sharing or whatever other method makes sense to get things corrected or transfer purchases through iOS. You can export the library to XML to get playlists, ratings, play counts and such over. Artwork can get lost if you just move the files and not the whole database structure.
What primarily matters is the iTunes backups and settings stored in the database, not whether the music or media files are shared or identical - as long as the songs to be synced are equivalent.

Look at that number, my friends. Just take a long, hard look at it. For every single liberal that voted Obama into office, take a look at that number and know that you have done this to your country.
On Friday, lawmakers received news of the report that let them know the status of our nation's economy. The ratio of debt to the gross domestic product is staggering.
By 2015, the ratio of debt to the gross domestic product will increase to a whopping 102 percent compared to only 93% right now. Obama is to blame.
"The president's economic experts say a 1 percent increase in GDP can create almost 1 million jobs, and that 1 percent is what experts think we are losing because of the debt's massive drag on our economy," said Republican Representative Dave Camp, who published the report and is the authority in Washington on analyzing the nation's debt.
Rep. Camp's statement was based upon testimony given by University of Maryland Professor Carmen Reinhart, to the bipartisan fiscal commission. This is the very commission created by Barack Obama.
Obama created the commission to find ways to reduce the national debt, and now the commission has found that the very fiscal policies coerced upon this nation by Obama are thrusting us into unprecedented levels of debt.
The major sources of debt right now are attributed to the economic downturn coupled with Obama's government spending for Wall Street bailout and Obama's wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Most detrimental, however, was the economic stimulus packages he handed out to the poor but also corporate executives.
By 2011, foreign nations — namely Communist China — will rise to $9.1 trillion.

Life Cycle of Tourism - The Product
Amit Chakladar
Jyotirmoy School of Business
December 16, 2008
Every thing produced gets destroyed everything invented gets replaced, every beings which takes birth attains death and everything which grows decays similarly everything discovered gets mutilated. This holds true for not physical products but also stands true for tourist destination. Tourist destinations can also be referred as product. My paper will try to find out the reason as to why a tourist destination over a period of time looses its attraction. Though the study is based on Sikkim, the mathematical model which I am trying to project may be applied in all tourist spots. The model has developed after making a careful research about all the important aspects of tourism.
It will state a service industry/ intangible product also has the four stages of life cycle which is akin to growth, development, maturation and eventually decline. The reason behind the rise and fall of a tourist destination and the causes for it. My paper will try to provide a sustainable solution.

Panama City - This week's Golden Apple award winner is a teacher at Jinks Middle School in Panama City. From coaching on the basketball court to teaching in the classroom, colleagues and students say Harry Gainer is a team player and a rolemodel. His books say he teaches social studies, but students say Mr. Gainer teaches them how to live.
Respect. In Mr. Gainer's classroom you'd better earn it, and you'd better show it. "Maybe half of the time we are not talking about geography we are talking about just life in general, about being respectful to other people, to classmates, to adults to authority," said Harry Gainer.
"He teaches us how we can't act up and how we need to get through school and stuff. He is a great inspiring person," said student Jewel Osborne. "It's not just about what occurs in the classroom, teachers are real people. I think students want to see authenticity, to see what you are talking about is real, and you are living it and he does that," said Jinks Middle School Principal Samuel T. Jackson, Jr.
Mr. Gainer was surprised and delighted to learn Mary Mason nominated him for the award. "I've gave him some troubles, but I know like in his heart that he truly cares about all his students," said Mary Mason. "Typically students don't appreciate teachers till later on and to have a student acknowledge that he's making that kind of impact now, that they recognize that, I think that is powerful," said Principal Jackson.
Congratulations to Mr. Gainer, this week's Golden Apple award winning teacher. "They need people they can look up too, they need people that show them love and compassion and understands them. That is why I keep coming back year after year," said Gainer.

Sometimes I feel like I don't know why I am trying to lose weight, because I have been working out and eating better and I have only lost 4 pounds. I know I have lost four inches off my waist and 1 in. off my hips, but I would have thought I would have lost more weight then I have. Everybody is telling me not to give up and it will take a little bit for me to lose the weight, but I get frustrated when I can't see any results physically. My clothes are still fitting the same and I have a pair of shorts that I can't even get on and I know that I have to lose the weight for my health, but I just wished that I could see a difference. Can you share with me some of the your ways to deal with the frustrations of losing weight?

Hey, I just noticed you're in Lakeland, which is where my mom and her husband live and I get to visit once in awhile. We might get to meet someday!
Well, four inches off your waist is AWESOME!!!
I'd say to track ALL your food and try to exercise 10 minutes or more a day. Then check the daily calorie differential and see what you're doing daily. If it's -500 differential a day, approximately, that should add up to one pound a week. You may be taking in too much sodium or holding too much water or gaining a lot of muscle if you're exercising a lot.
Even slowly, weight loss is better than not losing any, right? You only joined us at the beginning of March, so that's in two months.. Well, also you could have your thyroid checked. That can cause difficulty losing weight if you're thyroid is not fully functional.
I go through plateaus even when I'm doing everything right. It's very discouraging, but you have to make it a lifestyle and something you can live with. You don't have to cut out everything you like to eat, but you have to portion control it and fit it into the calories or only allow one splurge day at the high end or a few hundred extra calories over that per week. Then do one or two days at the low end of the calorie range. Calorie cycling is more effective for weight loss than having every day mid range, I have read and experienced this.
Honey, you are DOING this! You are amazing! You deserve to be happy and healthy! You CAN DO IT!!! Sticking with it is what's going to make it work for you!

I joined the one pound a week team because I would get frustrated. We all want to lose instantly and I have to remind myself it took a long time to gain it. Also, one pound at a time or week is 52 a year.
I keep a weight loss bucket list. I concentrate on the things like fit in a seatbelt better or wear my wedding rings again or tie my shoes easier. If you haven't seen progress spend time making lists of things that will motivate you.
Like things you want to do when you get healthier. Or the weight loss bucket list. Stay busy and you won't fall back. remember if you fall back you will be even more frustrated.
Good luck

I know it's hard keeping your motivation...I'm not one to give advice. I've started and stopped more times than I can count! I started again this week for what I hope is the last time. This time I'm going to make sure I am more active, both physically and on Sparkpeople. Everyone is so encouraging here, I hope that when I get frustrated I will think to go to the message boards for help.
I have seen lots of people say they may not be losing weight but they are losing inches and are becoming stronger, have more endurance, and just plain feel better. So remember even if the scale isn't moving as fast as you would like, you are still getting healthier!!

Date: Thursday, Nov. 18, 2004
Time: 7 p.m. MST
Location: Olson Court at McKale Center (14,545), Tucson, Ariz.
Radio: Wildcat Radio Network (Brian Jeffries/Ryan Hansen)
TV: FSNA (Dave Sitton/Bob Elliott/Todd Walsh)
Game Data: No. 10 Arizona (1-0, 0-0 Pac-10) advanced to the second round of the 2004 Preseason N.I.T. to host Wright State (1-0, 0-0 HL) ... Tonight's winner advances to the semifinals in New York City ... This is Arizona's fourth appearance (1986, ?'90, ?'95, ?'99) in the Preseason N.I.T. and UA has a cumulative 13-1 (.929) record in the event.
The Rankings: Arizona will open 2004-05 ranked 10th in the preseason edition of the Associated Press Top 25 poll and 11th in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll. It marks the 17th time in the last 18 seasons in which the Cats have been nationally ranked in the preseason, including 10 times in the top 10. UA has been ranked in 286 consecutive AP polls released during the regular season only.
Arizona Head Coach Lute Olson . . . is in his 22nd season at Arizona and his 32nd overall as a college head coach with a career record of 712-249 (.741) and 520-157 (.768) at Arizona ... He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame on Sept. 27, 2002 ... Olson recorded his 700th collegiate victory on Jan. 3, 2004, and became Arizona's career victories leader (510) on Jan. 17, 2004 ... He has the second-most Pac-10 wins (290) in history, trailing UCLA's John Wooden (304, 1949-75) ... Olson has the second-best conference winning percentage (.775/290-84) and second-most league championships won (10) in Pac-10 history (minimum three years), trailing only Wooden (.810/304-74/16 titles) ...

Under Olson, the Cats are 308-32 (.906) in McKale Center and have won 236 of its last 253 home games ... He is assisted by Jim Rosborough, Rodney Tention and Josh Pastner ... Olson is 0-0 against Wright State.
Last Time Out: Mustafa Shakur and Ivan Radenovic each posted career highs in leading the Wildcats to a season-opening 80-69 victory over San Diego Tuesday in the first round of the Preseason N.I.T. Shakur (23) and Radenovic (20) combined for 43 of UA's 80 points and led a charge that saw the Wildcats build as much as a 24-point lead. Arizona shot just 39.2 percent from the floor, but managed a 46-38 rebound advantage.
Scouting Wright State: Four Wright State starters finished in double figures to lead the squad to a 72-66 overtime win at Tulsa on Tuesday. Sophomore guard DaShaun Wood tallied 22 points, nine boards and four assists in 44 minutes of action. WSU shot 50 percent from the floor for the game, including 64.7 percent (11-of-17) in the second half and got nine of its 16 points in overtime from the free throw line. Against Tulsa, no Raider starter played less than 39 minutes.
The Series: Thursday's game marks the first meeting of the two schools. Arizona is 5-1 (.833) against Horizon League opponents.
In November: Fast starts certainly are the norm for the Wildcats under Lute Olson. Over the past 21 years, Arizona is 47-8 (.855) in the month of November.
Preseason N.I.T. History: Celebrating its 20th year as the nation's premier early-season college basketball tournament, the Preseason N.I.T. and the University have mutually prospered under its spotlight. As mentioned earlier, the Wildcats have now participated in the event five times (1986, 1990, 1995, 1999) and won the tournament three times (1990, 1995, 1999). All-time, Arizona has a 13-1 record in Preseason N.I.T. play, including a 6-0 mark at McKale Center. Currently, Arizona is tied with Kansas for the most Preseason N.I.T. championships won with three. Here is a look at UA's game-by-game tournament results:
Nov. 21, 1986 at UNLV L 87-92 Las Vegas, Nev.
Nov. 14, 1990 Austin Peay W 122-80 Tucson
Nov. 16, 1990 East Tennessee State W 88-79 Tucson
Nov. 21, 1990 vs. Notre Dame W 91-61 New York, N.Y.
Nov. 23, 1990 vs. Arkansas W 89-77 New York, N.Y.
Nov. 15, 1995 Long Beach State W 91-57 Tucson
Nov. 17, 1995 at Arkansas W 83-73 Fayetteville, Ark.
Nov. 22, 1995 vs. Michigan W 86-79 New York, N.Y.
Nov. 24, 1995 vs. Georgetown W 91-81 New York, N.Y.
Nov. 16, 1999 Kansas State W 88-69 Tucson
Nov. 19, 1999 New Mexico State W 84-60 Tucson
Nov. 24, 1999 vs. Notre Dame W 76-60 New York, N.Y.
Nov. 26, 1999 vs. Kentucky W 63-51 New York, N.Y.
Nov. 16, 2004 vs. San Diego W 80-69 Tucson
Back In Action: After recovering from left knee surgery and sitting out the first three games of this season (including exhibitions) for "failure to meet team responsibilities," junior forward returns to action for the first time since Nov. 28, 2003. In his 66-game career, the 6-foot-9 Fox is averaging 4.1 points and 3.6 rebounds. In his last McKale Center appearance, Nov. 24, 2003, vs. Northern Arizona, Fox posted his lone career double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds.
Battle of Attrition: Tonight's game may boil down to a question of wills, as both teams relied heavily on its starting lineup. Against San Diego, Arizona used eight players and its starting five averaged 34.4 minutes. To beat Tulsa in overtime, Wright State also used just eight players and its starters averaged 42.4 minutes.
First the Good: Anytime you can win, especially when shooting 39.2 (29-of-74) from the field, that qualifies as a good thing, which the Wildcats accomplished on Tuesday. UA also had two players (Frye/Radenovic) reach double figures in rebounds, marking the first time since Jan. 10, 2004, that two UA players had grabbed 10 or more rebounds in the same game. The Cats posted a +8 rebound margin and forced 19 turnovers.
Now the Bad: Certainly at this time of year, defense is still a work in progress, there were a few numbers that may cause a few eyebrows to raise. UA allowed San Diego to double its point output from the first half (23) to the second (46). USD shot 50 percent from the floor in the second half (16-of-32) and had a player, Brice Vounang, finish with 28 points. Vounang's 28 points marked the 10th consecutive game, dating back to last season, in which UA has allowed an opposing player to score at least 20 points.
Experimentation: Counting exhibitions, Arizona has played three games using the international three-point line and connected on 38.6 percent (17-of-44) of its attempts. By comparison, UA had connected on 37.9 percent (3693-of-9746) of its shots from behind the arc since the advent of the rule in 1986-87.
Doubling Up: Forward Ivan Radenovic got 2004-05 off on the right foot by collecting his first career double-double Tuesday vs. San Diego. The 6-foot-10 native of Belgrade, Serbia-Montenegro, posted career highs of 20 points and 10 rebounds, including 8-of-17 shooting and 35 minutes played. For good measure, he also added an assist and a steal.
Evolving: Point guard Mustafa Shakur put his ever-evolving game on display Tuesday. For just the second time in his career, Shakur was Arizona's leading scorer with a career-high 23 points. He also matched a career best with eight boards and added seven assists and three steals. Shakur, who was the only Wildcat to finish the game with a field goal percentage above 50 percent, hit 7-of-12 shots from the floor.
Take Note: In his 31-game career, Arizona is 16-2 when Mustafa Shakur passes out five or more assists in a game.
An Aberration: UA fans can only hope that Channing Frye's field goal percentage was just a statistical anomaly. A career 56.7 percent shooter entering the year, Frye has shot 3-of-12 (as he did Tuesday) or worse from the floor just three other times in 97 appearances: 0-for-4 vs. Texas, 12/15/2002; 0-of-2 at Michigan State, 12/15/2001; and 3-of-12 vs. Washington State, 2/9/2002.
Earn the Burn: Look for Jawann McClellan to play a greater role in the UA rotation after Tuesday's performance. In five minutes of action, McClellan grabbed three rebounds, but is was his defense that caught Coach Olson's attention, who said, "After watching the tape, I definitely thought we should have played Jawann more. He was active, especially defensively, and gave us the type of effort we need."
Tops in the Pac-10: In the annual poll of media members who regularly cover the Pac-10 Conference, Arizona was selected as the team to beat for the league title. The Cats received 19 of a possible 26 first-place votes and 253 points overall. Washington (237), Stanford (194) and Oregon (167) rounded out the top four places. It is the 10th time since 1989-90 that UA has been the predicted winner in the preseason poll.
Preseason Recognition: A nation's-best four Wildcats were included on the preseason Naismith Award watch list. Hassan Adams, Channing Frye, Mustafa Shakur and Salim Stoudamire were all on the list of 50 top college basketball players. The Naismith Award, presented annually since 1969, goes to the nation's player of the year. Frye and Stoudamire were also included on the preseason John R. Wooden Award list, and Frye was also selected as a preseason All-American by Playboy magazine.
Scoring 80: Perhaps no statistic is more telling of UA success, as the squad is 125-16 (.887) since the start of the 1997-98 season when scoring at least 80 points. The Cats topped the 80-point plateau in the season opener vs. San Diego.
The Next Level: With the 2004-05 NBA regular season underway, no fewer than eight former Wildcats are on active NBA rosters. Only three other schools (Kentucky, 13; Connecticut and Duke, 9) have more players in the league. Here is the complete list: Gilbert Arenas, Washington Wizards; Mike Bibby, Sacramento Kings; Andre Iguodala, Philadelphia 76ers; Richard Jefferson, New Jersey Nets; Damon Stoudamire, Portland TrailBlazers; Jason Terry, Dallas Mavericks; Luke Walton, Los Angeles Lakers; and Loren Woods, Toronto Raptors. Six of those former Cats were in the starting lineup on opening night.
More NBA Notes: Bolstered by four schools with seven or more players each in the league, the Pac-10 Conference ranks third overall in terms of putting players on NBA rosters. As of opening night, no fewer than 40 Pac-10 alums were in the NBA. The "Conference of Champions" ranks behind only the Atlantic Coast Conference (49) and the Southeastern Conference (44) in terms of developing NBA-caliber talent.
Television Update: Broadcast information is now available for the John R. Wooden Classic games on Sunday, Dec. 5. KTTU-TV, channel 18 in Tucson, will carry the Arizona-Mississippi State game at 1:30 p.m. PST. Several broadcast outlets, including WGN-TV, MSG network and NESN, will carry both games of the doubleheader. The nightcap features UCLA vs. Boston College.
Early Signees: Coach Olson and his staff signed three student-athletes to National-Letters-of-Intent during the November early signing period. Fendi Onobun (F, 6-7, 215) from Houston, Texas, Alief Taylor High School; J.P. Prince (G, 6-6, 183) from Memphis, Tenn., White Station High School; and Marcus Williams (F, 6-6, 190) from Seattle, Wash., Roosevelt High School, will join the squad next fall.
Up Next: Arizona travels to Charlottesville, Va., to take on the University of Virginia on Sunday, Nov. 21. Tip-off is scheduled for 5 p.m. EST. The game will be televised by FSN Arizona.

Treacherous Swine
|Treacherous Swine
|GTA Vice City
|Colonel Cortez
|VC Marina
Treacherous Swine is the first mission in the game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City to be played for Colonel Cortez.
|Spoiler Warning: Plot and/or ending details are in the text which follows.
Cortez's right hand man, Gonzales, gave away vital information about Tommy's deal to someone, and that someone organized the ambush. So Cortez wants you to silence Gonzales's loose tongue, for good!
The Mission
Cortez will provide you with a chainsaw and Tommy will have to use it to hack Gonzales to pieces. Take Cortez's Cheetah parked right next to the yacht and drive to Gonzales' penthouse behind The Malibu Club, then enter. Gonzales will be there with two guards, Gonzales will run away and head into the street, he will run towards the Malibu Club, you will have to run after him and when you reach him, finish him with the chainsaw.
You will get a two star wanted level, kill Gonzales' goons who attack you and take your car, now you have to loose the wanted stars, either get the nearby police brives, or go to the closest Pay'n'Spray and loose the wanted stars, once you lost the wanted stars, It's mission acomplished.
(Cortez's yacht, Tommy Vercetti and Colonel Cortez.)
Colonel Cortez: Mr. Vercetti.
Tommy Vercetti: Colonel.
Cortez: Thank you for coming. Please sit, Lobster?
Tommy: No - Thanks.
Cortez: I'm ashamed to admit that one of the causes of our mutual problems appears to have been the loose tongue of a man I used to trust. I've been carrying Gonzales for years, but now his incompetence reaches new heights! It's only right that you kill Gonzales.
Tommy: Did he do it? It's the money that's important to me.
Cortez: For this kindness I'll reward you, and then we will find your money together. He will be at his penthouse, half drunk prbably. Use this...
(Gonzales' penthouse, Tommy Vercetti and Gonzales.)
Gonzales: If he dies, I take the money...
Tommy: I'm going to shut that big mouth of yours!
Gonzales: Eh! He's got a blade!
Tommy: Stop running you fat slimeball!
(The street outside Gonzales' penthouse, Tommy and Gonzales.)
Gonzales: Oh, sweet Jesus. I've wasted my life and my looks!
Tommy: Stand still and I'll make it quick!

Can Japan Win This Round of The Intervention Game?
The Japanese government threw everything it could at the currency markets overnight, staging what appears to be its biggest round of intervention in history to try and set back the surge in the yen.
While the exact timing may have been a little bit of a surprise, pretty much every currency analyst with an opinion (that would be all of them) had been expecting some action from Japan's Ministry of Finance. The intervention was enough to boost the dollar to well over 79 yen from south of 76 yen on Friday. It's now changing hands around 78 yen.
Most analysts think it will be tough for Japan to reverse the yen's strength on any sustained basis. However, the yen was surprisingly stable against the dollar through much of the August and September market turmoil, so perhaps it won't be off to the races soon.
At Nomura, they don't see the yen making further big moves from here. Here's some of what they had to say overnight:
We suspect that this JPY-selling intervention was a one-day event, as was the case with the past three interventions (15 September 2010, 18 March 2011 and 4 August 2011). After all, Japan wants to avoid being labeled a ―currency manipulator by G7 companies – a criticism that a series of interventions would certainly provoke. With the US Congress urging China to enhance the flexibility of its currency, we suspect that Japan will refrain from the kind of consecutive interventions carried out by Switzerland, central banks in Asian countries, and Japan itself during the era of massive interventions in 2003-04. In other words, if Japan's persistent interventions were to be allowed, that would constitute a dramatic shift in international politics regarding currency policies, in our view.
We expect USD/JPY to move based on fundamentals again after today's intervention… In sum, it was hard to explain USD/JPY in the 75 range based on the US-Japan yield differential in the 2yr zone, which actually implies rates around 78 are justified. This intervention brought USD/JPY back into conformity with the yield differential.
We maintain our year-end USD/JPY forecast of 79.

Masek Guides Texas Tech to Series-Opening Win Over No. 19 OSU

LUBBOCK, Texas - Junior right-handed pitcher Trey Masek led Texas Tech to a 5-2 victory over No. 19 Oklahoma State with his second nine-inning complete game of the season on Friday evening at Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park.
The Red Raiders (22-24, 7-12 Big 12) have now won three straight games over ranked opponents for the first time since 2002 while defeating its first top-20 ranked opponent in a Big 12 series opener since 2011. Oklahoma State drops to 32-12 overall and to 7-8 in Big 12 play.
Masek (4-1) was the story for the Red Raiders who pitched nine innings allowing just two runs on four hits with seven strikeouts and two walks. It marked Masek's third nine-inning performance of the season and fifth start pitching at least eight innings this year.
Masek allowed just one base hit following the second inning while striking out at least one batter in six of nine innings pitched. In addition, Masek struck out a pair of batters in a three-up, three-down ninth inning.
OSU starting pitcher Jason Hursh (4-4) took the loss allowing five runs (2 ER) on seven hits with three strikeouts and four walks in six innings of work.
Texas Tech took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning on an RBI single from first baseman Eric Gutierrez, who ended up coming all the way around to score on the play following a fielding error by the center fielder and a throwing error by catcher Victor Romero while Gutierrez was caught between third and home plate.
OSU immediately tied the game with three base hits in the second inning and with a two-out, two-run single with the bases loaded by Rick Stover.
The bottom of the second inning saw Tech take a 4-2 lead with an RBI infield single from shortstop Tim Proudfoot and another run scored on Hursh's throwing error to home plate. Proudfoot finished the game with seven assists, which equaled his most in a home game this season.
Masek held the Cowboys scoreless the remainder of the game while retiring 19-of-22 batters from the third to the ninth inning, including retiring the final 11 batters of the game.
Tech added a fifth run in the seventh inning on junior third baseman Jake Barrios' team-leading 36th RBI of the season, which scored left fielder Brett Bell after he reached base on a walk and stole second base and advanced to third on a throwing error by OSU first baseman Tanner Krietemeier.
Junior outfielder Devon Conley led the Red Raiders going 2-for-4 with a run scored while Bell (1-for-2), Gutierrez (1-for-4), second baseman Bryant Burleson (1-for-3), catcher Mason Randolph (1-for-3) and Proudfoot (1-for-3) all recorded base hits.
Texas Tech and OSU will play game two of the series on Saturday, May 4 with a 6:36 p.m. first pitch from Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park. The game will have a national audience with a FOX College Sports broadcast with Daron Sutton (play-by-play) and Preston Wilson (analyst) calling the action.

New Orleans Regional Bracket in PDF Format
NEW ORLEANS -- Tulane University's Turchin Stadium will be the site of one of 16 NCAA Baseball Regional May 25-27, the NCAA announced Monday. It will mark the first time that Tulane has played host to a baseball regional tournament. Three teams will join the Green Wave in the New Orleans Regional. Those teams will be announced on an ESPN national television broadcast next Monday, May 21 at 2 p.m. CDT.
"I'm pleased for our team, for our fans and for New Orleans," said Tulane Director of Athletics Rick Dickson. "We definitely feel we have a team that is more than deserving of serving as the regional host with one of the best records in the country. Our facility is top-notch and our fans have set an attendance record this year. I think all of those factors, plus a very competitive bid, put us in perfect position to land this regional."
The four-team regional begins Friday, May 25 with games scheduled for 3:30 and 7:30 p.m. at Turchin Stadium. Saturday's games will be played at 11:30 a.m., 3:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. with Sunday's finale to be played at 1 p.m., followed immediately by Game 7, if necessary.
Tulane began taking orders for the potential regional two weeks ago and has already sold out of the $75 reserved grandstand tournament tickets. Reserved seats in the bleachers are still available for $60 for the entire tournament. Season ticket holders who have not contacted the Tulane Athletics Ticket Office regarding reserving their seats for the regional should do so immediately by calling 504-861-WAVE. Individual game bleacher tickets will be available on the day of the game only -- subject to availability -- for $10 per game. For complete ticket and game information, fans should call 504-861-WAVE or come by the Tulane Athletics Ticket Office in the James W. Wilson Center. Information, as well as order forms for tickets, are also available on the internet at www.TulaneGreenWave.com.
"I am very happy for our players who have earned this through their hard work and for our fans who have been so supportive," said Tulane Head Coach Rick Jones. "I know everyone associated with Tulane will do everything we can to make this one of the best tournaments in the country."
Tulane played in regional tournaments in New Orleans in 1982 and 1987 when UNO's Privateer Park served as the site for four- and six- team regionals, respectively.

Agents from the Ohio Attorney General's Office's Bureau of Criminal Investigation and local law enforcement raided two Internet sweepstakes cafes in Medina County Tuesday morning.
The owner of the cafes, Adam Syed, a Fairlawn resident, is suspected of operating two illegal casinos, in Brunswick and Sharon Township, according to Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine.
DeWine held a news conference after the raid at Cyber City, 2696 Medina Road, Sharon Township, where agents carried out 47 cash-operated slot machines.
"What's amazing to me is that this is just open gambling," he said. "There's no pretense that it's some Internet cafe. There's no pretense about buying Internet time. You don't have to show a card to get in, they don't pretend that it's a club, it's just 'come on in and gamble.' "
DeWine said eight people were found gambling at 10 a.m. Tuesday before the raid.
Syed is suspected of violating the Ohio Casino Control Act, which prohibits running a casino gaming operation outside of the four voter-approved casinos in Cleveland, Columbus, Toledo and Cincinnati, the attorney general said.
"We have four legal casinos. Everything else is illegal, pretty much," DeWine said. "We have the racinos, which come under a different category, but besides that, casino gambling is illegal in the state of Ohio."
Medina County Prosecutor Dean Holman said the searches were part of a yearlong investigation.
He said the customers would not be charged.
"It's not our intention to charge customers, and we'll look at the employees on a case-by-case basis," the prosecutor said.
Syed was taken in for questioning Tuesday. Holman said charges are expected against Syed. Possible charges include gambling, operating an illegal gambling house, and casino gambling, a fifth-degree felony.
"We will be presenting these charges as soon as we can after we've gathered all the information from the various sites subject to search," Holman said. "We'll be debriefed by the officers probably in the next day or so as to the results of the search warrant."
Another cafe owned by Syed in Brunswick also was searched, Cyber 777's, 1733 Pearl Road, where more slot machines were removed.
Syed's home, at 3681 Torrey Pines Drive in Fairlawn, and a vending business he maintained at 1180 Triplett Blvd., Akron, also were searched.
The investigation was a collaborative effort among the Ohio attorney general's Bureau of Criminal Investigation, the Ohio Casino Control Commission, the Medina County Prosecutor's Office, the Medina County Sheriff's Office and Brunswick police.
Brunswick Police Chief Carl DeForest praised the effort.
"The actions of the prosecutor locally and the sheriff, Tom Miller, were very instrumental in developing this case and getting us here today, so I appreciate the fact that people have worked diligently over the past several months to put a good case together," he said.

The Chicago Blackhawks announced forward Patrick Sharp would miss 3-4 weeks with an upper-body injury sustained in Wednesday's game against the Colorado Avalanche.
TSN's James Duthie reported that Sharp has a separated shoulder, posting on his official Twitter account that Sharp has "a fairly severe AC joint shoulder separation."
In 24 games this season, Sharp has five goals and 18 points.
The Blackhawks meet the Avalanche again Friday at Pepsi Center (9 p.m. ET, NHLN-US), trying to extend their point streak to 25 games to start this season, and 31 stretching to the end of the 2011-12 regular season.

Teenagers, do you think you are ready to date? Some people long to be in a relationship, so they can spend their time with that special person. However, there are some things you need to know about dating before you hop aboard the dating train.
First, you have to know how to have fun with yourself. You have to spend time getting to know your likes and dislikes. Learn how to appreciate going to the movies alone or taking a stroll around the neighborhood.
When you are comfortable hanging out with yourself, then you are better prepared for a boyfriend or girlfriend because then you are less likely to be desperate. Nobody wants a clingy person who must have company in order to have a good time. Before you can have a beautiful relationship, you have to become a strong and confident person.
Here are some other things you can do alone to get to know yourself better:
- Read interesting books
- Go to a restaurant like Chipotle Mexican Grill
- Visit your local park
- Go to the beach
- Invest in your hobbies
- Pamper yourself (paint your nails, do a facial, etc.)
- Listen to music
- Write in your journal
- Create a blog/vlog
- Pray or mediate
- Read devotions for teens
- Dance or sing around your house
- Set goals for your life
- Snap pictures
Some teens might ask, "Why would I wanna spend time alone? I wanna be with someone." If that is your response, then you are most likely not ready to date. Getting to know yourself is more important than getting to know others.
You will always have to be with yourself as long as you are alive, so why not become familiar with your personality? Then when the right person comes knocking on your door, you will enter that relationship as a strong and confident individual.

Ritchie's elder brother Tom Taylor, 28, said: "As a family we have had a lot to do with the cricket club and it's great of them to put on a day like this.
"Ritchie had struggled with his health from being six but he still managed to play cricket and open the batting and the bowling."
Money raised on the day will be handed over to charity PACT.

North Texas Downs Texas Tech in Nightcap
Feb. 22, 2013
SAN MARCOS, Texas - North Texas broke up a 2-2 tie with a run in the fifth and two in the sixth to snap Texas Tech's five-game winning streak Friday evening with a 5-3 victory at Bobcat Stadium.
The loss dropped the Red Raiders (8-4) to 1-1 in the Texas Shootout after defeating host Texas State, 6-1, in the tournament opener earlier in the day.
"It was a disappointing loss," Tech head coach Shanon Hays said. "We left too many runners on base and made a few mistakes in the field that cost us. We have to regroup tonight, though, and play well tomorrow."
The Mean Green (6-7) took the lead off a three-base Tech fielding error to start the fifth inning that later resulted in a run off a Tori Bice sacrifice fly. Jackie Miller and Jordan Terry provided two insurance runs an inning later with back-to-back RBI doubles to center.
The Red Raiders recovered to load the bases in the bottom half of the sixth but a runners interference call on Mikey Kenney at first discarded what would have been two runs off a North Texas fielding error.
Instead, Tech settled for just one run off a Sandy James bases-loaded walk as Adriana Perez flew out to center to end the inning with the bases still loaded. The Red Raiders stranded 10 runners total in the game.
Tech had previously scored off a Sydnie Tapis RBI single in the second and an Adriana Perez RBI double in the third. It marked the eighth-straight game where Perez had at least one RBI.
Terry originally gave North Texas the lead in the second as Terry drove a two-run homer to left field off Tech starter Brittany Talley. Terry finished 2-for-3 at the plate with a game-high three RBI.
Talley (4-2) took the loss after allowing five runs, four of which were earned, off five hits in 6.1 innings. Ashley Brokeshoulder relieved her briefly in the sixth before Talley returned with one out in the seventh.
Tori Bice (2-0), meanwhile, picked up the win after giving up the two early runs, both unearned, off five hits over 4.1 innings. She was relieved by Lauren Poole and Brittany Simmons, who earned a save after tossing the final two innings.
The Red Raiders continue the Texas Shootout with a Saturday afternoon doubleheader against UT Arlington and Sam Houston State. Tech will face the Mavericks at 1:30 p.m. and then the Bearkats at 5:30 p.m.

Nominated for the Bathroom Design Awards 2010, this project exists as one open space where several functions have been put into freestanding objects. The kitchen and wardrobe are placed near the entrance and combined into one single volume.
The bath and bedroom is hidden in a volume which is placed at back of the house. From the open living area you look alongside the volume towards the vertical garden and the entrance stairs to the roof terrace. The view on the green wall holds a promise in itself which will be redeemed once you enter the bed/bathroom.
The panorama on the overgrown plantwall and the contrast with the minimalistic white bed/bathroom provides an intense experience. Integration of nature is an important aspect of traditional culture in Japan, the homeland of the client.

The design of specialist tea retailer, T-magi is intended to allow the shop itself to be perceived as the display window. The designers have used the teapot as the motif for both the shop, logo and PR material. Tiny backlit holes perforate the shelves and back wall providing a large 3D image of a teapot–a powerful eye-catcher. The image of the teapot dissolves as you approach and becomes part of the display stands of the shop.

PostPanic is a combination of a design/animation studio and a production company. The Company produces both commercial projects for the international advertising, retail, broadcast and music industries and its own internal projects.
In the briefing, functionality was the biggest priority. To ensure a constant quality, PostPanic purposely chooses to produce, direct, design and animate in-house to stay truth to their original vision, once in production. This approach requires that the various departments of PostPanic each have their clearly divided and defined areas. But at the same time PostPanic required to maintain as much as possible the openness and transparency that the place offered. The design also had to take into account that the workforce fluctuates from 14 to 40, depending on the different stages of production.

Dealing with disaster

Laurence Letellier worked closely with local government agencies, FEMA, and power companies to efficiently clean up after two back-to-back hurricanes in September 2004.
Gregory A. Frink (left), and Reginald Willis Sr. from the Marion County Code Enforcement Department had to carefully assess the debris removal in the right of way. They investigated and documented illegally dumped debris from the hurricanes.
Employees at the Emergency Operations Center worked together to coordinate incoming calls about flooding, debris, and downed power lines. Planning ahead for an event like a hurricane can help centers like this run smoothly.

Removing trees and other debris from the right of way fell to the public works department.

Burning debris (left) and chipping debris (right) were used to eliminate vegetative debris. Burning is generally cheaper than grinding due to the need to haul away and dispose of the chips.
Although Marion County is landlocked, flooding was a problem, especially for emergency crews trying to get through.
Photo: Thompson Pump
This shows one of 10 permanent Thompson Pump emergency backup pumps used by Regional Utilities in Walton County, Fla. The pumps are equipped with automatic start/stop systems.
C&D typically involves debris from buildings and other structures, such as shingles, aluminum, plywood, carpet, and other building materials damaged by the storm.
Residents are required to separate piles of C&D from vegetative debris. It is important to convey this information clearly to the public through the media and to set deadlines by which this debris is to be placed at the curb. Our deadline was set at Oct. 31, nearly two months after we began picking up debris. We experienced problems with public service announcements, particularly with the print media. Often, the announcements were not printed the way we had written them and confusion resulted.
Despite several large display ads placed in the newspapers, in addition to radio and TV announcements, we still had many residents putting debris out after the deadline and not following guidelines. Furthermore, we found a large amount of debris not related to the storms but resulting from trimming or removal of healthy, undamaged trees—all of which was not eligible for FEMA reimbursement. At that point, we directed code enforcement officers to homes not following guidelines, and where appropriate, they wrote citations.
In early December (approximately three months after the storms), we determined that the contractor had made a minimum of two passes. We directed residents to report missed debris piles, and we assigned inspectors to visit each of these sites to determine whether the debris was obviously storm-related. We conveyed this information daily to the debris pickup contractor if removal of the debris was eligible for reimbursement, or to our code enforcement department if it was ineligible.
In addition to debris from private property, there also was vegetative debris falling from the public right of way, stumps, and "leaners" and "hangers." Leaners are trees than are leaning and present a hazard to vehicles or pedestrians. Hangers are branches left hanging in trees that present the same hazards. Stumps are an expensive issue to handle. Management of stump removal became more challenging as FEMA policy dealing with stumps changed several times during the debris-pickup process.
FEMA field representatives assigned to Marion County were present during the entire recovery effort. They consistently advised us that Marion County's response was outstanding. However, at times when they brought directives from the regional FEMA offices, there were inconsistencies that made it challenging to meet their directives.
One such inconsistency arose from a February 2005 decision from FEMA that determined the new stump policy would be retroactive to the beginning of our recovery efforts, even though we had exceeded FEMA's earlier direction. Several additional challenges arose with our stump-related operations due to continuing FEMA policy changes.
Despite our judicious adherence to FEMA directives, this issue, which is still unresolved, could cost us a substantial amount of money, possibly in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Based on our experience, I cannot stress enough the importance of understanding FEMA directives and regulations and maintaining a working dialogue with FEMA.
Brian Thomason, vice president of Grubbs Emergency Services, is a veteran of a number of debris cleanup operations. When asked about the FEMA directives in this emergency Thomason said, "I have never experienced this inconsistency. During this event, we never know from day to day what to expect, what new decision would come down. The policy interpretations applied retroactively are creating hardships all around the state. It's almost become laughable, but nobody's laughing."

10 Easy New Hair Ideas for Summer
Whether you're going for a sexy beachy style or you just want your hair off your neck because it's so freaking hot, there's a new runway trend for you. Follow these easy ideas to find your best summer hair ever.
The scoop: Souleiman created sleek low loops for the DKNY show. In real life, these make a polished alternative to sloppy ponytails but keep you just as cool. He parted the models' hair on the side—"not too low or harsh," he said. Gathering it at the nape of the neck, he anchored it into a low ponytail, which he folded over and retied with an elastic, creating a side loop. The finishing touch? Souleiman spritzed a fluffy kabuki makeup brush with hair spray and glided it over flyaways. "Think of it as setting powder for your hair," he said.

I feel that the following corollary of the Monotone Class Theorem should appear somewhere in the literature, but I haven't been able to find it any of the measure theory books that I have checked.
Lemma: If $\nu$ is a signed measure on the product space $\Omega_1 \times ... \times \Omega_n$, and $\nu(A_1 \times ... \times A_n)\ge0$ for all measurable $A_1\subset\Omega_1,...,A_n\subset\Omega_n$, then $\nu(A)\ge0$ for all measurable $A\subset\Omega_1 \times ... \times \Omega_n$.
Does anyone know where to find it?

A must-have to all art and fantasy fans.
I have been working with the human form in photography for more than 20 years. I have worked in the glamour and fashion industry, but found the work unsatisfying. Although I still do some commercial work, I have returned to my great love in photography, fine art I originally studied in California under George Craven, photographer and writer of "Object and Image" and Shirley Fisher, the noted fine art photographer who worked with Weston. "Michael's nudes with their sculpture-like lines have earned him the title of the emerging Rodin of photography. His fine art photography brings out the beauty in all his subjects."

"Damsels, Demons and Dante is powerful interpretation of Dante's Inferno and its imaginarium. Its always interesting and refreshing to see a story with so many levels of understanding through the lenses and eyes of Michael. The concepts in every pictures he takes are unique."

NEW YORK — No big conspiracy here: said he decided to delay the release of his Before I Self Destruct album from December 16 until next year because he needed more setup time.
"I'm trying to leave the same way I came in," he said Sunday night during "Total Finale Live." "February 4 [2003], Get Rich or Die Tryin' came out. I drop this album February 3. The time frame. It used to take six to eight weeks for us to position a hip-hop record. Now, it's taking 12 to 14 weeks.
"Just the positioning," he continued. "I'm not comfortable where I'm at right now. My song 'Get Up' is performing great. I'm happy with 'Get Up.' It moved faster than 'I Get Money' at radio. But I'm just looking for the opportunity to present more of my material [prior to the album's release]. It's not the strongest effort on my album; it's just a great start for me."
The video for "Get Up" is out now. Besides paying homage to the Will Smith blockbuster "I Am Legend," Fif also comes full circle with a nod to his own "In Da Club" video. With the release of Before I Self Destruct, he will fulfill his contractual obligation to Shady/Aftermath and Interscope Records for new recordings. A greatest-hits collection will follow if he does not ink a new contract with Interscope.
"We may put out a greatest-hits record then, [when] we start the renegotiations," he said of his talks with Interscope.
Although he's publicly expressed disdain for the way Interscope and its chair, Jimmy Iovine, have handled projects such as Curtis and the G-Unit's T.O.S., Fif did tell us he'll let bygones be bygones for the right price.
"I think all artists have things they can point to that have been done wrong at different points in their career," he said. "It's cool. I'll get over it. They can just pay me."
