In front of an announced crowd of over 78,000 Alabama fans, the 2012 Crimson Tide showed the potential to be great as they embark on another Title defense. Even after losing five potential first round draft picks, and a few other starting players on both offense and defense, the Crimson Tide displayed a talent-laden roster on Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Fans didn't see anything new from the playbook on Saturday.
"You didn't see anything new, unless you just want me to e-mail Michigan what we're doing and anything new that we're doing," Saban said. "What do you think you saw that was new? Did you see anything new? If I would have seen anything new out there, I would have been upset."
Nick Saban's sqaud showed a lot of potential at A-Day.
Obviously Coach Saban isn't going show his full hand to Michigan and other future 2012 opponents, and that is another reason for some of the sloppy play offensively by the Crimson Tide. Starting QB A.J. McCarron said after the game he thinks the Alabama offense ran the same play nine straight times in one drive.
When the game was over yesterday afternoon in Tuscaloosa, the White team, led by the first team defense, had defeated the Crimson team, led by the first team offense, 24-15. The White team had steak and the Crimson team had beans.
I walked away from A-Day with a good feeling about what I had seen from the 2012 version of the Crimson Tide that is eager to not become complacent and end up like the 2010 team that followed up a National Championship with a 10-3 record.
So here is my position-by-position review of spring practice and my observations from yesterday's A-Day game.
There was no QB battle at A-Day this season, and despite three A.J. McCarron interceptions, he still showed signs of improvement. His first interception came on the very first play from scrimmage where he threw into double coverage and was picked off by Robert Lester.
At the end of the first half, McCarron was picked off on a tipped-pass by Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix, and then again late in the game with the outcome no longer in doubt by Vinnie Sunseri. Other than the three interceptions, McCarron played well, completing 29 of his 43 pass attempts for over 300 yards and a pair of touchdown passes.
One of his two TD passes was reminiscent of last season's Iron Bowl, with McCarron hitting Kenny Bell for six points on a flea-flicker. The other was a beautiful touchdown hook-up with Christion Jones.
I left A-Day feeling good about the depth behind A.J McCarron if he were to get injured at some point in 2012. Phillip Sims didn't get the opportunity to throw much during spring practice, but he started for the White team yesterday, and played very well. Sims was efficient, completing 9-of-12 passes for 135 yards and a pair of touchdown passes.
Nick Saban stressed after the game that Sims still wasn't at 100%, but he made a big impact on yesterday's game. Sims threw touchdown passes to true freshmen Chris Black and T.J. Yeldon. The one to Black was perfectly placed over the outstretched arms of a defender, and Black did the rest taking it 44 yards for a touchdown. The other was a simple dump down throw to T.J. Yeldon, who did the rest taking it 50 yards to the house.
There is still a chance that Sims decides to transfer some time this summer, although there has been no indication of him planning to do so. If he does, however, it would mean that Phillip Ely would become the backup QB to McCarron. Ely left a lot to be desired yesterday, and still seems to have a lot left in his development.
Running Back
With Eddie Lacy sitting out spring practice after surgery to repair a lingering turf-toe injury, it was Jalston Fowler who received the bulk of the praise from coaches this spring. Fowler received the Johnny Musso Offensive Back award following the game on Saturday. But it was true freshman T.J. Yeldon who was the best running back out there for the Crimson Tide yesterday.
Obviously, Yeldon didn't have the challenge of facing the first team defense, but he also didn't have the luxury of running behind the first team offensive line, either. Still, Yeldon was extremely impressive and walked away with the A-Day game MVP.
Yeldon finished the game with 179 all-purpose yards, 88 rushing and 91 receiving, to go along with a touchdown reception. His touchdown pass was from Phillip Sims on a dump down where Yeldon broke the tackle of JUCO transfer Travell Dixon, and turned on the jets toward the endzone.
T.J. Yeldon was impressive and walked away with the A-Day MVP honors
Yeldon showed all the tools to be a star running back at Alabama one day. Eddie Lacy may have next, but Yeldon is the future and he will see immediate playing time in 2012.
After the game, head coach Nick Saban described Jalston Fowler and Dee Hart as backs who can do "certain things." He described Yeldon as a back who can do "everything." Yeldon showed speed, power, and elusiveness en route to his A-Day MVP award.
Following Yeldon, redshirt freshman Dee Hart was the 2nd best running back the Tide had on display. Hart was running against the 1st team offense, and after a sluggish start really got himself going. Hart is very fast, and he is going to have a role in the Alabama offense next season despite a crowded depth chart at running back. Hart is very elusive and is flat out scary in the open field.
Hart could also factor in returning kicks or punts for the Crimson Tide. Hart, along with Christion Jones and Deion Belue saw time returning kicks yesterday.
I hate to not give Jalston Fowler his due because he had a fantastic spring taking the majority of the first team running back reps with Lacy on the sidelines. Fowler didn't have the game he wanted, but that shouldn't take away everything he did this spring. I'm not sure of the kind of role Fowler will have in the Alabama offense next season, but he will have one.
Fowler isn't going to blind you with his speed, but he hits the hole hard and is a good downhill runner. Like Saban said, Fowler is a guy who can do "certain things." He is hell to try and tackle in the open field at over 240 pounds, and is a guy Alabama could choose to use in the fourth quarter to try and ice games away with the defense tired.
Trent Richardson may be gone, but Tide fans should be confident about the team's running game in 2012 with four very capable running backs.
Receiver/Tight End
There is still no Julio Jones type receiver in Tuscaloosa, but the Tide has plenty of talent at its disposal even after the departures of Darius Hanks and Marquis Maze. Rising junior Kenny Bell seems to be the "#1" receiver on the Tide's depth chart at this point. Junior Kevin Norwood and sophomores DeAndrew White and Christion Jones are next in the pecking order.
Early enrollee freshmen Chris Black and Amari Cooper are next. Chris Black performed well during the A-Day game and was the recipient of a 44-yard touchdown pass from backup QB Phillip Sims during the game. Amari Cooper didn't have a great game, but he received some praise from Nick Saban after the game. Saban said that Cooper along with T.J. Yeldon have shown the ability to be playmakers, and that they could contribute.
Alabama has no great wide receiver on the roster, but they have a lot of good ones who have shown the ability to play and to contribute. It will be interesting to see this summer if incoming freshmen Eddie Williams and Cyrus Jones will be able to make an immediate impact. Both guys were very highly recruited, so I wouldn't bet against it.
As for tight-end, the race for the starting spot at H-back is wide open. Michael Williams is the #1 tight end on the depth chart, but three guys saw action at the H-back spot for the Tide yesterday. Harrison Jones, brother of All American Barrett Jones, Brent Calloway, and Brian Vogler all saw action at H-back looking to replace the departed Brad Smelley.
In my opinion, Brian Vogler looked the best yesterday, but Vogler is a little big for your traditional H-back. Vogler stands at 6-foot-7 and 252 pounds. Vogler is more than likely the heir apparent to Michael Williams at tight end, but as good as he's looked this spring, he will see the field in 2012.
I would say that Harrison Jones remains the leader in the clubhouse for the starting role this season, but Brent Calloway looked good at the position as well. Calloway tried out the H-back role this spring and had a strong showing. Calloway is just 217 pounds though, and would need to bulk up some to be able to start at the position next season. Calloway's future still seems to be at linebacker, but with a crowded depth chart his quickest route to playing time in 2012 would likely be at H-back.
Offensive Line
The offensive line struggled at times yesterday, but also looked strong at times. Regardless, the Crimson Tide boasts one of the top offensive lines in the nation with four guys returning with starting potential along with a former five star recruit that saw action last season before suffering a season-ending injury.
With last season's Outland Trophy winner Barrett Jones making the move to center from left tackle, it put to rest the concern of losing William Vlachos. It also allows former stud recruit Cyrus Kouandjio to step in and take over as a starter at left tackle in 2012.
The biggest take away from yesterday's offensive line performance in my opinion was that there were no bad snaps by Barrett Jones. Jones looks to have made the move to center flawlessly, and this was a premeditated move by head coach Nick Saban as shown by Jones taking some reps at center last season.
From left to right, Alabama's starting offensive line will look like this in 2012 barring any injuries this summer: Cyrus Kouandjio, Chance Warmack, Barrett Jones, Anthony Steen, and D.J. Fluker.
Defensive Line
The defensive line had a strong showing at A-Day against what many believe to be one of the best offensive lines in the country. The biggest concern for this defensive line was the loss of Josh Chapman at nose guard, but the move of last season's starting defensive end, Jesse Williams, over to nose has mitigated that worry.
Senior Damion Square is back as a starter at defensive end, and along with A.J. McCarron was awarded the Mal Moore Leadership award after the game yesterday. The other starting defensive end spot is up for grabs at the moment between senior Quinton Dial and junior Ed Stinson. At the end of spring practice, Ed Stinson seems to be the frontrunner. He was on the first team defense yesterday while Dial was with the second unit.
Stinson came to Alabama as an outside linebacker, but has gained a lot of wight to make the transition to defensive end. Stinson is up to around 275 pounds now.
Quinton Dial along with Jeoffery Pagan and Brandon Ivory should provide quality depth for the Crimson Tide on the defensive line.
Adrian Hubbard continued his strong spring with three sacks on Saturday.
Remember how Adrian Hubbard was receiving a lot of praise throughout spring practice? Well, it was all well deserved as he was virtually unblockable at A-Day. Stinson was awarded the Dwight Stephenson Lineman of the A-Day game award with four tackles for loss including three sacks.
Hubbard has spent time at both the Jack and Sam Linebacker spots this spring, but with sophomore Xzavier Dickson better suited for the Jack position, Hubbard will likely be the starting Sam linebacker in 2012. Hubbard and Dickson both have the ability to rush the passer, so they are both essentially Jack linebackers out there.
Nico Johnson and Trey DePriest both played very well at the starting inside linebacker spots as did C.J. Mosley with the second team defense. Mosley led all defensive players with 10 tackles. With Johnson, DePriest, and Mosley, Alabama has three inside linebackers who would start at pretty much any other program in the country. Mosley isn't listed as a starter, but just like the last two seasons he will see plenty of playing time.
Alabama lost three starters at linebacker last season in Courtney Upshaw, Dont'a Hightower, and Jerrell Harris, but they didn't look to miss a beat yesterday afternoon, and they shouldn't miss a beat all season long. This group has the potential to just as good, if not better than last season.
Defensive Backs
Despite the attrition at defensive back with Dre Kirkpatrick, DeQuan Menzie, and Mark Barron all gone, Alabama still has a lot of talent in the secondary. 2010 this is not for the Crimson Tide. Robert Lester is back at free safety as is Dee Milliner at cornerback.
John Fulton had a great spring and has shown a ton of improvement from the end of last season to the end of spring practice. Fulton is going to be a meaningful contributor at cornerback whether he is the #2 or #3 corner.
Of the two JUCO transfers at corner, Deion Belue has stood out, and looks to be well on his way to becoming an All-SEC caliber defensive back. Travell Dixon's transition from the JUCO ranks to big time college football in the SEC has been slower than expected, but with his size at 6-foot-1 and 200 pounds he has the physical tools to be successful. I think he'll put it all together by the end of fall camp, and he should contribute next season.
Alabama appears to be in good shape at safety regardless of who replaces Mark Barron. Vinnie Sunseri and Haha Clinton-Dix both had great spring practices, and both saw plenty of playing time with the first team defense yesterday. One of them will step in at safety while the other should see playing time in the dime package replacing Will Lowery. Of course that could change depending on how Landon Collins performs when he comes to Tuscaloosa this summer. He could throw a wrench into the whole thing.
Sunseri looks like a natural born playmaker on defense. He sealed the win for the White team with a fumble recovery for a touchdown, and he also intercepted an A.J. McCarron pass at the end of the game before taking a knee at the five yard line. Saban ultimately ruled him to have stepped out of bounds at midfield.
Clinton-Dix didn't have as big of an impact on the game as Sunseri, but overall he could ultimately be the better player. Sunseri exits the spring as the favorite to start opposite Robert Lester, but both are on their way to meaningful playing time in 2012.
Special Teams
Cody Mandell was said to have made significant strides during spring practice, and he put it on display at A-Day. After his first two punts went just 33-yards apiece, Mandell boomed a 66-yard punt on his third try. For the game, Mandell punted 16 times during the game and averaged over 44-yards per boot. Mandell's progression from his freshman year to now going into his junior year has been impressive.
As for kicking, not much has changed through the spring. Cade Foster's 48-yard field goal on Saturday notwithstanding, he hasn't shown much better consistency. Jeremy Shelley remains a reliable option on shorter kicks and extra points, but he doesn't have the leg to handle the longer field goal attempts.
Alabama's kicking game largely will depend on incoming freshman Adam Griffith this summer. He has a big leg, but so did Cade Foster coming out of high school. If Griffith can in the very least handle kick-off duties and hit some longer kicks, it will go a long way in helping Alabama's special teams in 2012.
Christion Jones, Dee Hart, and Deion Belue all saw time returning kicks during A-Day, and Jones seems to be the most viable option at returning punts this season. He looked good in the BCS Title game against LSU when he had to step in for an injured Marquis Maze, and nothing seems to have changed this spring. Dee Hart and Deion Belue are the primary contenders to be alongside Jones to return kick-offs.
That could also change with incoming freshman Cyrus Jones' game-changing ability reporting this summer, but that's how it looks here at the end of spring.
Obviously, Alabama has some things to work on as does every team in college football in mid-April, but this Crimson Tide team has a lot of talent and potential, and it was all on display at A-Day.
With spring practice concluding, it's going to be a while before we get to see the Tide again. A-Day gave fans their final opportunity to see Alabama play until September 1st in Dallas when Alabama takes on Michigan at Jerry-World.

Jump into the Summer of Making! ›
3D-print it, spin it up to 30,000 RPM, and watch it take off like a rocket!
This surprising device, like a number of my projects, started out with me working in the lab alone late at night and goofing off with slightly dangerous tools!
As some of you may recall, in Make: Volume 31 we did a project called the Mendocino Motor, a funny little electric motor powered by solar panels mounted to its rotor, which floats on magnetic bearings. To test the project, we used powerful incandescent bulbs, but soon discovered that the intense heat was melting the glue that held the motor together. So I was asked to design a 3D-printed fan to be mounted on the end of the rotor shaft.
Late one night, the print finished and I tested the new fan. The Mendocino Motor is not highly energetic, so the spinning fan was underwhelming at 100 rpm. Bored and slightly sleep deprived, I figured I'd see what happened if I mounted the fan to a cordless Dremel tool. I grabbed an empty arbor for the Dremel and wrapped electrical tape around it till the fan fit snugly.
You can imagine what happened next: I turned on the tool and the fan spun up to 15,000 rpm, generating a torrent of wind behind it. I was pushing the slider switch all the way to 30,000 when suddenly the fan took off like a rocket and crashed into the whiteboard at the end of the room, shattering into a dozen pieces and leaving a fresh dent. I sat there stunned, until the proverbial light bulb in my head went ding!
I dove into the model in Inventor and modified the fan to have 5 blades instead of 4, and I added a ring with an airfoil profile to support the ends of the blades. This time I decided to test it outside, and when I spun it up to 30,000 rpm the fan flew off like a little missile in a line-drive straight trajectory. Not until the very end of its flight, some 200 feet away, did it start to arc and fall back to earth.
So here it is — the Dremel Devil, a 3D-printed fan that you launch from your high-speed rotary tool to soar up to 200 feet. Grab the file and get printing!
Check out thingiverse.com/thing:266035 or download the files:
Never put fingers or other precious objects near the spinning flyer. Always aim the rotary tool and flyer away from people and property, and stand clear of the sides of the tool, since some 3D prints could fail when spun at high speeds, flinging debris to the sides.

Skip to comments.Oil Trains Start Rumbling Into California: Expect a Fierce Political Battle
Posted on 04/03/2014 8:31:03 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
America oil production since 2008 is up by about 60% to 2.7 billion barrels a year.In 2013, total U.S. crude oil production grew by 15% to 7.4 million barrels per day as fracking of underground shale formations in the Eagle Ford field of Texas and Bakken in North Dakota allowed both of those states to grow production by 29% for the year. In three years, output grew in North Dakota by 177% and in Texas by 119%.
(Excerpt) Read more at americanthinker.com ...
No wonder there are so many pipelines.
No one rides Amtrack anyway, so whats the problem?
Ditto for Caltrain.
ALL energy producing companies outside of CA should cease supplying them, entirely and immediately. Open the breakers, cut them off. Let them have their 'pristine' paradise, without any energy not produced in state. No gasoline, no oil, no electricity. CA environment is just as important as AZ, NV, and any other.
ALL energy producing companies outside of CA should cease supplying them, entirely and immediately. Open the breakers, cut them off. Let them have their 'pristine' paradise, without any energy not produced in state. No gasoline, no oil, no electricity. CA environment is just as important as AZ, NV, and any other.
Now we know why Democrats oppose Keystone.
Now, there's a truly astonishing stat! And entirely the work of private enterprise, indeed intentionally hampered by government regulation.
Incentivized by the massive potential profits.
Even greater profits are out there for someone who develops a truly clean way to burn coal. Would be quite surprised if considerable resources aren't being devoted to finding one.
Another EcoNut Misfire.
Before the "refinery row" complex between Salt Lake City and Ogden was built, all Utah-produced oil was shipped by the trainload to San Francisco Bay area refineries for processing.
How long till one of these enviro whackos sabotages a train to create a spill? Then the media will jump in and say "oh no! enviromental disaster!
Sooner or later one of these trains is going to come rolling downhill from the Sierras without a full set of brakes. That will be interesting to see.
"No one rides Amtrack anyway"
Who can afford it? It's rediculously expensive.
I stopped reading after this.
"horrible" is activist hyperbole.
Then only show a photo of a disaster. Nice.
Let's have a discussion about public transportation, starting with derailment photos.
These trains would not cross the Sierras, but come through Oregon, past Lake Shasta. They had a chemical train derailment on this route.
But short of a pipeline, and 38 million people that need to travel, what are the alternatives?
We get one of the trains daily here in Anacortes WA. The environuts are too worried about the coal trains to notice..
If I were king, I would prohibit all oil imports to California until they emptied the oil reserves off their own coasts."
And I would strongly support you. I also think other states should quit selling them electricity. They can use their wind farms and solar to meet their needs. I would, however, allow an exemption to all California Freepers.
How to get the Left to all applaud and support these oil trains to the Phillips (nee: Union Oil) Santa Maria Refinery.......
Phillips need only declare that its Santa Maria Refinery is not going to make automobile lubricants, airplane lubricants, truck lubricants, diesel, or gasoline.
Instead, the refinery will now make sexual lubricants.
You'll see Nancy Pelosi, Barry Obama, and Sandra Fluke all picketing Phillips to get the trains rolling faster!
Problem solved.
(anyone have any other problems they want fixed?)
How long before an environmo whacko lays down across the tracks in front of an oil train & demands that it stop?
Remember Dennis Wilson & the Contra ammo train?
While the increase has been great, the oil production increase is not quite that high. 45% increase in 3 years, from 5.5 MMBPD to 7.9 MMBPD.
U.S. Field Production of Crude Oil
I was quoting from another thread. Didn't look up the numbers personally. Me culpa.
The author of this article said the same. It is not correct.
Maybe they meant all liquids including natural gas liquids. I've seen reporting of liquid petroleum numbers that way then someone else thinks it is all oil.
The numbers were higher than I'd seen elsewhere, which is why I was surprised by them, but it's hardly my area of expertise.
What have the numbers been in, say, the last 10 years?
From the prices, it looks like we're closing the flooding the market for natgas. At some point, either we start exporting or price will drop below that which makes further drilling attractive.
Put your Socialist filters on "High", but here'a a report that looks like the employees are going to take a hammering.
Amtrak CEO tells employees to expect pay cuts
What have the numbers been in, say, the last 10 years?

My link in post #23 goes back to 1920 by month.
Conservatives can fall into the same trap, which is why I call myself a Constitutionalist. [Getting caught up in the "Republican" snare is a whole different matter that we don't have time for today.] I would point out that Democrats, under the flag of being conservatives, brought us the McCarthyism of the 1950's, just like the left-wing wackos of the Democrat Party are bringing us the political correctness of this decade.

A method for finding the boundaries of the constant gain margin and phase margin of control systems with transport lags and adjustable parameters is presented. The systems are first modified by adding a gain-phase margin tester, then the characteristic equations are formulated, and finally the stability equations are used to find the boundaries of the constant gain margin and phase margin. The main advantage of the proposed method is that it makes it possible to obtain complete information about the effects of adjustable parameters on the gain margin and phase margin and their corresponding crossover frequencies. In order to show the usefulness of the proposed method, a nuclear reactor control system with multiple transport lags is discussed as an example

Cruise News July/Aug 2016
Ongoing Voyage of S/V ARIEL
On behalf of our veteran cruisers, Charles and Sue Springett, please find an update received July 21st.
"After parting on July 11, 2016; we have reunited Ariel, Charles and Sue in A Coruna. Gregers had helped him sail her down the Irish sea and the Celtic Sea ( past Bay of Biscay). It took two sails to Kinsale, Ireland and a three night passage to A Coruna with weather window days in between. Sue had arrived by trains, and planes from her world tour (to Dublin, Ireland; Holyhead, Wales; Preston, England; Paris, France; Madrid, Spain; and La Coruna, Spain. She was sightseeing, using metros, and walking to various places, with pictures to follow-). From July 20 to 25th there is a Medieval Festival in town nearby with some 300 stalls set up selling everything from various sweets, handmade jewelry, leather goods, spices and spit-cooked baby pigs to Octopus. Of course there is beer! We are having a great time.
Sue & Charles"

Recent Cruising Fleet Activity
The Carolina Dreamin' cruise to New Bern was quite enjoyable: be sure to read the story in this Headway.
A six-boat fleet recently visited St Mary's College on the river and enjoyed the concert over the water along with their fireworks. Look for that story soon.
Upcoming Cruises
MYC : The short cruise to Matthews Yacht Club will take place starting July 29th with six or more boats embarking on what should be an enjoyable trip close to home.
Another voyage close to home is Roaming the Rappahannock, from August 6th to 10th with Ted Kvell leading us to new spots for some.
And, although August may be warm, we plan a long weekend trip to the Great Wicomico to visit some of the waterfront restaurants, Aug. 19th -21st.
Look at the Member Connect site for more details and be sure to sign up if you wish to join us for any of these or the ones in September and October.
Come cruising with us!
PHRF Racing on the River
Get ready for our exciting second half of PHRF racing on the Rappahannock.
Racing kicks off with a fun pursuit race sponsored by YPRCC, on August 13. Next up is YPRCC Fall Regatta September 10. Then comes the Rappahannock Cup on September 17 and 18. YPRCC has won this regatta for the last two years and it is well past time to bring the trophy back to RRYC where it rightly belongs. Sept 30 to Oct 2 brings the Hospice Turkey Shoot Regatta, the highlight of our Fall events. After the Turkey Shoot comes the YPRCC Singlehanded Regatta and then the season finale, the RRYC Commodore's Cup, October 15.
Lets have the biggest and best Fall PHRF racing season in years! Get your crew together and enjoy the racing.

Register today, just click on Turkey Shoot at the top of the RRYC website home page.
Junior Regatta Registration
For those of you attempting to use the registration link in the Junior Regatta NOR, that is a bad link. The corrected link is
The NOR has been updated accordingly.
Junior Regatta Update (Saturday July 23)
We've heard through the grapevine that Fishing Bay will be attending in large numbers. For the other CBYRA clubs, we're putting you on notice. Are you going to let them steal this entire regatta right out from under you? Of course not! Sign up now! 🙂
Weather outlook, always a bit fuzzy from more than a week away, looks like sun, clouds and HOT. Bring your water bottles and spritzers to keep your cool on the river, and your swimsuits to keep your cool at the RRYC swimming pool after a hot day of racing! We'll have cold drinks available on the porch for you as well.
While verbally announced intentions are high, actual registrations are still a bit low for a regatta that's less than two weeks away. If you're having trouble with the signup, contact Bob at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Also, the NOR and SI were re-uploaded last night to take care of a couple of minor typos (mostly involving changing "2015" to "2016".
Volunteers and potential volunteers, we will be meeting prior to this week's Social at RRYC. I will be around most of the afternoon, but hope to meet with Junior Regatta participants around 4:30 on the porch. I have heard that Saturday's BOD meeting has been moved to Monday, so it shouldn't conflict with anything, and we'll try to stay out of the way of those preparing for the Social.
All of the event details are at 2016 RRYC JUNIOR REGATTA.
Reminder: Cruise to Matthews Yacht Club July 28-31
Join us on this short fun cruise over a long weekend, July 28 to 31. Sign up on Member Connect. See the cruise guide below.
Island Time This short cruise is perfect for new cruisers who want to "experiment" close to home. The daily legs will be short so there will plenty of time to relax or to do some extra sailing before anchoring or taking a slip. We'll head out on Thursday July 28th and spend the night on Jackson Creek. Friday we'll go to Fishing Bay, or a bit further up river. Saturday we head to Matthews Yacht Club, where dinner is available for those who would rather not cook (it's July). Sunday before heading home brunch is available. So short legs, reduced galley slavery, and a drawbridge should provide an interesting–if somewhat lazy—cruise. I will need to inform MYC of the vessels in our cruise fleet so sign up as soon as you can.
Junior Regatta reminder…
Junior Regatta NOR, SI and registration pages are all available HERE. (link corrected)
Please register sailors promptly to aid in planning.
Let us know if you will be bringing coach boats or are available to volunteer. We still have plenty of volunteer positions open.
The shirts will be fun this year!
Nine Racers Competed in the RRYC Singlehanded Regatta
Nine Racers Match Skills in the RRYC Singlehanded Regatta
Saturday, June 25 with 8-12 knots of wind from the NE was the perfect setting for our annual Singlehanded regatta. PRO Mike Romey and his Race Committee of Polli Romey, Ray Britt, Coleman Brydon on Wildfire and Pete Clay and Tom Armstrong on Doug Power set up an excellent twice around triangular course to make certain the sailors had to tack and jibe often testing their singlehanded boat handling skills.
George Kuper in Ty Affair (on loan from Danielle) got the best start near the committee boat with full speed at the gun. Close behind George were Ned Crockett in Ladybug and Stan Crocket in Miss Daisy. Tom Chapman in Hot Air was further down the line but in good position.
Gusts shifted 20-30 degrees and near the windward mark which was near shore the wind lightened considerably making calling the lay lines a challenge.
New member Ed Johnson was out in his impressive Hippo, a boat Ed both designed and built! At 28 feet the largest boat in the regatta. Other participants included Tom Blencowe in Lil Elixir, Mike Kennedy in Radio Flyer, Greg Kirbride in Bella and Randy Romaine in his J-24 Gloria.
At the finish it was Tom Chapman in Hot Air first, Ned Crockett in Ladybug second and Stan Crockett in Miss Daisy third. Many other Typhooners were looking for go fast advice from the Crockett brothers after the award ceremony.
Complete Results:
1 Tom Chapman, Hot Air
2. Ned Crockett, Ladybug
3. Stan Crockett, Miss Daisy
4. Greg Kirbride, Bella
5. Randy Romaine, Gloria
6. Tom Blencowe, Lil Elixir
7 Mikey Kennedy, Radio Flyer
8. Ed Johnson, Hippo
9. George Kuper, Ty Affair
Thanks to our PRO Mike Romey, the entire race committee and all racers. It was an excellent morning on the water and a lot of fun.
2016 Junior Regatta…
The 2016 Junior Regatta page has been updated to include the online registration form, online payment, NOR and SI documents. Please consider participating in the Junior Regatta either as a sailor, participant or volunteer. We are always in need of volunteers for this event, one of RRYC's biggest events. Contact Bob and Eve German if you're interested in volunteering (email@example.com or email@example.com).

I'm currently attempting to make a unit conversion tool. I'd like for the user to select which unit to start and which unit to convert too. EX: 1 foot comes out to 12 inches. So far it's not going well.
I have two list boxes, named "firstmeasure" and "secondmeasure". For the purpose of this post we will use only 3 different unit in the list boxes, centimeters, feet, and inches. I also have two text boxes used to show the output and for the user to put in a number to convert. And of course, a button that calls the function (I'd prefer it to do the function automatically, but I'll get to that later).
I'm trying to use variable arrays and using the value of the list box options to define which value the array will use. Then in the function I'm trying to use a switch/case statement to allow it to figure out which numbers to plug into an equation.
My problem is that it seems to automatically go to the last case option regardless of what the list box is.
This is the form that in the HTML file:
This is whats in the Java file:Code:<form action="" name="lengthform" id="lengthform" >
 Select first measurement
 <select id="firstmeasure" name="firstmeasure" > <option value="1">Centimeter</option> <option value="2">Feet</option> <option value="3">Inch</option> </select> <input type="text" id="input" name="input" value="1" />

 Select Second measurement
 <select id="secondmeasure" name="secondmeasure" > <option value="1">Centimeter</option> <option value="2">Feet</option> <option value="3">Inch</option> </select> <input type="text" id="output" name="output" />
 <input type="button" onclick="calculate()" value="Convert!" /> </form>
So, measure1 reads the value of the first list box, and measure 2 reads the value of the second list box. I tried using a switch case statement instead of writing a ton of if statements. Which I also tried and it gave me the same problem.Code:var centimeters1 = new Array() ; centimeters1["1"] = "1" ; //centimeters centimeters1["2"] = "0.032808399" ; //feet centimeters1["3"] = "0.393700787" ; //inches var feet1 = new Array() ; feet1["1"] = "30.48" ; //centimeters feet1["2"] = "2" ; //feet feet1["3"] = "12" ; //inches var inches1 = new Array() ; inches1["1"] = "2.54" ; //centimeters inches1["2"] = "0.0833333333" ; //feet inches1["3"] = "3" ; //inches function calculate() { var measure1 = document.lengthform.elements["firstmeasure"] ; var measure2 = document.lengthform.elements["secondmeasure"] ; var A = document.lengthform.input.value ; var B ; var C ; switch (measure1.value){ case "1" : B = centimeters1[measure2.value] ; C = A * B document.lengthform.output.value = C case "2" : B = feet1[measure2.value] ; C = A * B document.lengthform.output.value = C case "3" : B = inches1[measure2.value] ; C = A * B document.lengthform.output.value = C }//end switch }//end function
If there is a much better way to do a conversion tool, than I would love to learn how. Any help on fixing this seemingly easy problem would be great.
Edit: Do I have to use an "int" variable in the switch statement? I'm using Adobe Dreamweaver and it won't allow to me to create a variable using "int", it just gives me a syntax error.

Strep Throat (cont.)
Home Treatment
Your doctor may have prescribed an antibiotic for strep throat. Take all of the antibiotic exactly as prescribed. This will help prevent the infection from coming back and will prevent complications of infection that could occur if you do not take the medicine as prescribed.
There are many ways that you can make yourself feel better while you are waiting for the strep infection to go away.
For more information on nonprescription medicines and other ways to relieve sore throat symptoms, see the topic Strep Throat: Home Treatment.
For the first 24 hours after you start taking an antibiotic, you are still contagious. You can avoid passing the strep throat infection to others and reinfecting yourself by:
Antibiotics are the treatment of choice for a confirmed strep throat infection.
When antibiotics may be used
Antibiotics may be used in the following situations:
It is possible for you to carry the strep bacteria in the throat and not have any symptoms. Antibiotics for the carrier state are usually not needed unless you have a history of rheumatic fever or frequent infections or infections are occurring frequently in the family.
For more information, see:
Medicine choices
Antibiotics such as amoxicillin, cephalexin, or penicillin are used to treat strep throat infection.
What to think about
Immediate treatment with an antibiotic after a positive rapid strep test may not make you well faster. But it will shorten the time you are able to spread the disease to others. Antibiotics also lower the risk of the infection spreading to other parts of your body. But there is no harm in delaying medicine treatment 1 to 2 days to wait for the results of a throat culture. Antibiotics will prevent rheumatic fever even if it is started up to 9 days after symptoms begin.1
