Kenneth W. Pop Corn, 87, of Arden passed away peacefully Sunday, April 26, 2009, at the John F. Keever Jr. Solace Center in Asheville.
He was a native and lifelong resident of Buncombe County, the son of Wiley O. Corn and Maggie L. Corn and husband of the late Betty Howell Corn, who died in 1998.
He was a member of the Greatest Generation, serving his country in the Army during World War II and serving his community as a volunteer firefighter, ultimately achieving the rank of fire chief. Before enlisting, he worked as a welder in the shipping yards in Norfolk, Va., where he worked on the USS Yorktown and its sister ship, the USS Essex.
Recognizing the need to serve his country during wartime, he enlisted in the Army and was sent to North Africa. During the fighting in Africa, he was wounded by shrapnel and returned to the States to heal. The Army then assigned him to the 95th Gas Treatment Battalion headed for the European theater. In August of 1944, he arrived with the battalion at Utah Beach and participated in several battles including the Heurtgen Forest Campaign and the Battle of the Bulge. The Army awarded his battalion the Meritorious Unit Commendation for superior performance of exceptionally difficult tasks.
His devotion to serving others didnt end with the war. He was one of the original volunteers to form the Skyland Volunteer Fire Department in Arden. He served as a volunteer firefighter for 25 years and served as fire chief from 1973 until 1975. He also worked at the DuPont plant in Brevard for 28 years, retiring in 1983.
He is survived by a daughter, Barbara C. Tharp of Arden; three sons, Michael R. Corn and his wife, Mary Louise, of Fletcher, Russell A. Corn and his wife, Connie, of Arden and Gary L. Corn and his wife, Gail, of Fletcher; his sister, Mary Frances Briggs of Arden; and his brother, Clarence Corn and his wife, Virginia, of Arden. Also surviving are seven grandchildren, John R. Corn, Kenneth C. Corn, Jeffrey S. Tharp, Jennifer M. Tharp, Michael Langford Tharp, Dallas L. Guthrie and Dakota E. Guthrie; and five great grandchildren.
A funeral will be at 11 a.m. Thursday in the chapel of Groce Funeral Home at Lake Julian conducted by the Rev. Ray Hipps. Interment will follow in Roberts Memorial Park with firefighters honors provided by the Buncombe County Firefighters Honor Guard. Serving as pallbearers will be his grandsons. The family will receive friends from 7 until 8:30 p.m. today at the funeral home on Long Shoals Road. In memory of his love for service to the community and in lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to the John F. Keever Hospice Solace Center, P.O. Box 25338, Asheville, NC 28813.
Groce Funeral Home at Lake Julian is assisting the family and the memorial register is available online by going to Obituaries at www.grocefuneralhome.com.

A Jennings County man received a 30-month prison sentence for receiving child pornography on his cellphone.
Jon Michael Helms, 38, of Butlerville, received that sentence Thursday from Jennings Circuit Judge Jon W. Webster after a plea and sentencing hearing on the Class D felony charge.
The investigation that led to Helms' arrest on a warrant Nov. 20 began that October when police received a tip concerning Helms, according to a news release from Prosecutor Alan L. Marshall said.

Super Italian food. Had beef which was perfectly cooked and a side of al dente pasta. Highly recommend and worth a visit.more
Very pricey (not strange considering the surroundings), but at least the food is up to standard. As is the service. Had a lunch here recently, organic chicken and spinach on the side. The chicked did taste like it was organic (not dry at all) and the spinach was perfectly cooked. For dessert I had the regular scones which were perfect to be honest, as was the cream with which they were served....more
The new design looks great and their home made pasta is to die for! The staff are polite and efficient and the fact that most of them are actually from Italy and actually know about the food being served adds tremendously to the experience. Great place!more
I've been here three times over the past three days and the service has been excellent each time. Friendly, attentive, and quick.
Great coffee. Good food. Spotty service. Sometimes friendly and attentive, other times it is obvious they don't work for tips and would rather not be working at all that day. My most recent visit, however, the service was excellent. Very courteous attentive even...more
Staying at the Cavendish on Jermyn St. and this restaurant was recommended by the front desk. The space is bright, and filled with business lunchers and friends catching up, and what appeared to be very few tourists.
We started with some foccacia, which was delicious. I had the pappardelle with quail and truffle. The pasta was fresh and the sauce had this wonderful game-y, earthy texture...more

I am a fashion/ textile designer and mother of six children.
Over time I have designed and knitted as well as sewn hundreds of items of baby and childrens clothing.
I am a designer specializing in innovative and practical children's wear that is timeless and understated.
Sewing, knitting and designing for babies and children gives me special joy and freedom to be playful, nostalgic and quirky.
I prefer natural yarns and fabrics as these don't just feel and look good, they also perform very well when used for children's garments.
My belief is that children's wear should be fun, practical and comfortable as well as easy to care for.
I am a highly creative person and there are a lot of artists, designers as well as dressmakers in my family and my great grandfather who was as a sewing machine engineer...
Nothing quite compares with making something for your little one yourself.
I encourage everyone with the urge to have a go.
It's fun and a lot easier than you think!
One of my daughters knitted a very simple blanket for her baby brother when she was 10 years old. It is by no means perfect but it has become a very special prized possession that both her and her brother will cherish for years to come.
Empower yourself and have a go!
This is a pattern for a pair of roomy pants for baby boys.Cute and comfy with elastic waist sections and extra legroom to fit nappy and make sure there is plenty of room for exercise.

This pattern comes in three sizes to fit babies 3,6 and 9 months or height of 62, 68, 74 cm.
You will need 0.5(0.6,0.6) m of 140 cm wide fabric.

A Bowling Green, Ky., couple accused of multiple sex charges involving a minor pleaded guilty on April 19, 2007.
Samuel Anthony Sturm and his wife, Tracy Joyce Sturm, each pleaded guilty to 56 counts of using a minor less than 16-years-old in a sexual performance.
On top of that, Samuel also pleaded guilty to eight other sex-related crimes and his wife pleaded guilty to six other sex-related crimes.
According to police, the sex crimes were committed between June 4-July 22, 2007.
The Warren County Grand Jury indicted the couple last September.
Commonwealth Attorney Chris Cohron is recommending a 35-year-sentence with possibility of parole in 20 years for both Samuel and Tracy.
Their sentencing hearing is tentatively set for May 31, 2007.

The Canfield Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol says Anthony J. Scarnecchia, 59, of Poland, was killed when his motorcycle collided with an SUV about 9:20 p.m. Wednesday at U.S. Route 224 and Hitchcock Boulevard.
A news release from the patrol says Scarnecchia was traveling east on Route 224 in the right hand lane approaching Hitchcock Boulevard. The SUV, a Jeep Wrangler, was westbound on 224 in the left lane and was trying to turn south on Hitchcock Boulevard when the motorcycle collided with the Jeep as it was turning.
The driver of the Jeep was a 16-year-old female from Youngstown. The patrol would not release her name because she is a juvenile. An 18-year-old passenger was taken by her parents to be treated for injuries at St. Elizabeth Health Center.
Scarnecchia died at St. Elizabeth Health Center about 11 p.m., the release states.
The accident is still under investigation. No charges have been filed.
Let's see. She's making a left turn, he's making a right turn. Doesn't that pretty much say it all? The way the article is written seems to blame the right turning motorcycle who would clearly have the right of way. Add to that a 16 yr old driver with passenger and I'm pretty sure I've seen this movie.
I don't see anywhere in the article where it blames the motorcycle. Maybe you should watch the movie over again and pay attention.
After waiting forever to log in: Just a brief message to all previous posters: Don't take everything reported on TV, Radio or newspapers as the Gospel... News reporters tend to put their own spin on things.....Unfortunate accident in any event......
Check the 16 year old's cellphone history! I know the article doesn't indicate she had one but I bet she does. Life can change in an instant.
I ride. This type of accident is the second leading cause of motorcycling deaths - a car turning left in front of an oncoming motorcycle. Drivers, especially at night, expect oncoming vehicles to have two headlights separated by six feet of car. This paradigm causes them to disregard the single headlight of a motorcycle as traffic. For motorcyclists, you can be extra cautious at intersections by practicing the wig-wag move I learned at an MSA course years ago. Within your lane, tip the bike back and forth several times as you approach an intersection. To an oncoming driver this gives your headlight an arc of movement that gets attention. For drivers, hang up, pay attention and nobody gets hurt.

Forum: The Gun Lobby's Push on Campuses
Forum: The Gun Lobby's Push on Campuses
December 03, 2009/Traverse City Record-Eagle
By John Johnson
America's colleges and universities are under attack from the gun lobby.
Following mass shootings at Virginia Tech in 2007 (32 students and faculty killed and 15 wounded) and Northern Illinois University in 2008 (six students killed and 16 wounded), the gun lobby is pushing legislation that would prohibit colleges and universities from maintaining gun-free campuses.
The proposed legislation would allow conceal/carry license holders, including students, to keep guns in their student dormitory rooms, and carry concealed handguns on campus — in classrooms, at sporting events, and other school activities.
The gun lobby argues that college campuses would be safer if students and other private citizens (faculty, staff, and visitors) were allowed to carry concealed weapons. However, a growing body of evidence shows that conceal/carry permit holders are a threat to public safety. Current background check systems are simply inadequate to weed out all potentially dangerous individuals who apply for and are issued permits to carry.
A recent study by the Violence Policy Center found that during the period May 2007 through October 2009, conceal/carry permit holders killed eight law enforcement officers and 77 private citizens (including 10 shooters who killed themselves after the attack). In addition, permit holders committed at least eight mass shootings (three or more victims).
In addition, the American Association of State Colleges and Universities and more than 90 colleges and universities from 24 states have signed a resolution by the Campaign to Keep Guns Off Campus that they are opposed to legislation that would mandate that colleges and universities allow students to carry concealed weapons on campus. View the list at www.gunfreekids.org/campaigns.
Opinions aside, the gun lobby's plan is not practical. For example, will every class have a designated shooter? What about classes where no conceal/carry license holder signs up?
What about freshman and sophomore classes where students are generally not old enough (21 in most states) to obtain a permit to carry?
Nonetheless, legislation to allow guns on college campuses has been introduced in at least 12 states, including Michigan, so far in 2009. So how does this legislation get legs in so many states?
The answer is that this legislation is not about safety. The gun lobby is not interested in the safety of students, faculty, and staff.
They are only interested in being able to carry concealed handguns in public places where they are currently prohibited from carrying in many states — schools, churches, hospitals, government buildings, courthouses, bars, and public parks.
They are using the tragic shootings at Virginia Tech and Northern Illinois University as cover for their real agenda which is to push guns into every nook and cranny of society.
One can only hope that lawmakers are intelligent enough to see through their scheme.
The answer to gun violence is not more guns.

Poke`Mon too. What next? This is very impressive. If you talk to the right people they could really set you up to be a theme writer. Plus I can really see this doing good for the poke`mon fans out there too. Teaming up with somebody could give you more buzz. And to be honest nobody thought that the theme song to poke`mon could ever be remodeled to be GOOD. What will you do next?
Congrates on the number one spot too. it looks like sombody really likes you.

Hallstatt in Austria. The funny thing about this city is that it exists twice. The Chinese have copied and rebuilt this very Austrian City on a lake in China. As result of this many Chinese guests are visiting Hallstatt to see how the original looks like.
Ich habe mal wieder eines deiner Fotos als Hintergrund benutzt: lumpi69.deviantart.com/art/Luf…
Du machst so fantastische Fotos!
Du machst so fantastische Fotos!
Beautiful. Stunning capture
I`ve been there
wow its beautiful!
I've seen both versions in person... The remake doesn't even come close! It lacks the atmosphere that makes Hallstatt for idyllic and beautiful. Also lacks the wonderful people and culture and climate.
lovely country!
Magical So beautiful
beautiful <3
it's amazing because you could just post this images in the Photography session, but it's all stock
Hallstatt ist einfach nicht kopierbar! nur das echte original hat diesen besonderen charme! <3
Alleine die Idee ist absurd, aber irgendwie schmeichelhaft. Vielleicht kopieren die Chinesen auch den Dachstein..
Beautiful place! Excellent photo!
A place really delightful!
i guess the only thing the cannot reproduce was the altitude and climate of the original one!
Well, there is much more that can´t be reproduced. The history of this location, or even the smell of the houses that are hundreds of years old. But maybe the interest of the Chinese in foreign cultures may wake their interest in their own old and glorious history.
A wonderful town with a fascinating ossuary too, as I remember.
This is awesome!
fabulous..........i wish i could visit there
Great photo! That city looks so pretty--no wonder it was copied!
Awsome work! It's so beautiful.

A New Kid Carter Caps a Wild Mets Comeback
Mets 8 Nationals 6
If the Mets keep winning, if they end up pushing past the lowly expectations that accompanied their 70 wins and fourth-place finish last year, they'll look back at the eighth inning Tuesday night as the moment their 2010 season started to shift.
Here was a listless team at a listless night at Citi Field, wasting scoring opportunities throughout the first seven innings, going through the motions, trailing the Washington Nationals by four runs. This was going to be the Mets' third straight loss. This was going to be another round of difficult questions for manager Jerry Manuel and the men in his clubhouse. This was going to be another reason to wonder whether that 9-1 home stand earlier this season was a mirage.
And then it wasn't.
Instead, the Mets scored six times in the bottom of the eighth, getting the timely hitting and bench contributions that they'd been lacking most of the year, in rallying to beat Washington, 8-6. The victory moved the Mets (18-15) back into a tie for second place in the National League East with the Nationals and, maybe more importantly, restored a bit of confidence to a team that had lost six of its previous nine games.
The half-inning that changed everything began with a seemingly innocuous Jason Bay single, a weak, 99-hopper up the middle. But after David Wright lined his second right-field double of the game, sending Mr. Bay to third, the Nationals' grip on the game started to loosen.
Washington shortstop Ian Desmond took a Magellan-like route to a routine ground ball by Ike Davis, then threw wildly to first for an error that left everyone safe. Two batters later, Rod Barajas drove a two-run double off the left-field wall. Before that hit, the Mets, who entered the game with a National League-worst .228 batting average with runners in scoring position, had been 2-for-14 in such situations Tuesday.
Backup infielder Alex Cora, who had replaced second baseman Luis Castillo earlier in the game, then laid down a bunt single, and it seemed only a matter of time now before the Mets tied the game. And they did when Angel Pagan ripped an RBI single to right-center field.
Late Monday night, the Mets had announced that they had designated Frank Catalanotto for assignment and had called up outfielder Chris Carter from Triple-A Buffalo. At the time of his promotion, Mr. Carter was among the batting-average leaders in the International League at .336. He gave a glimpse as to why when Mr. Manuel used him as a pinch-hitter against Washington reliever Tyler Clippard (6-1). Mr. Carter ripped a changeup down the right-field line for a double to score Mr. Cora with the go-ahead run.
"It was a great feeling; I definitely felt part of the team right there" Mr. Carter said.
A bases-loaded walk to Mr. Bay completed the scoring in the inning for the Mets. Francisco Rodriguez pitched a perfect ninth inning—capped by another of Mr. Davis's tumbling, over-the-dugout-railing catches of a foul pop-up—for his fifth save of the season. Reliever Raul Valdez (1-0) earned the win with a scoreless eighth inning of work.

For weatherization purposes, is it worth removing the trim around windows (and sliding doors, etc) and filling the gaps behind the trim with spray foam (or perhaps caulk?), or is it acceptable simply to caulk around the trim?
Adding expanding foam around windows and doors is a cheap way to add insulation. If you're willing to do the extra work involved in removing and reinstalling the trim, it's definitely worth doing.
Adding caulk alone might stop drafts but isn't as good of a thermal break.
Make sure you use an expanding foam that is specifically for windows and doors. This product will not expand as much in order to prevent malforming the frame.

Building on family game franchises, along with casual games with both premium and budget price points will save the day, said the exec.
Farrell also expects the online gaming market to help solidify sales, and development costs will be further dropped.
Proven console franchises and licensing deals with Marvel and Disney will help significantly, too.
Farrell was speaking in THQ's Q4 and year-end earnings call, which is ongoing.
THQ announced losses of over $430 million for the year ending March today.

All Rise...
Judge Michael Nazarewycz has no need for a Sledge Hammer!
The Charge
"Why not seek redemption?"
Opening Statement
I have been a fan of Eddie Izzard since I first saw his Dress to Kill stand-up special on HBO in the late 1990s. He is a funny, smart, and charming stand-up comedian and actor, and while his film choices have been hit-or-miss, his two-season, 20-episode TV drama The Riches is still one of my favorite shows of all time. With that, I couldn't resist the prospect of another Izzard TV effort, and I wondered how this one got by me.
Facts of the Case
While there are several plot lines in Bullet in the Face, the show centers on Gunter Vogler (Max E. Williams, The Great Buck Howard), a killer who works for Brüteville crime boss Johann Tannhauser (Eddie Izzard, Ocean's Twelve). Gunter's girlfriend, Martine (Kate Kelton, Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle), a fellow criminal and Tannhauser employee, is pregnant with his child. During a botched robbery, Gunter kills a cop but then Martine double-crosses Gunter and shoots him in the face, leaving him for dead. Gunter lives, and the police have reconstructive surgery performed on his face to make him look like the dead cop. They hope to use him to "fight evil with evil" to topple Tannhauser's criminal operation, as well as that run by rival mob boss Racken (Eric Roberts, Lovelace). There are twists aplenty, with the fate of Brüteville hanging in the balance.
Bullet in the Face is a six-episode action/comedy series that aired on IFC in 2012. Each episode is about 22 minutes long.
• "Meet Gunter Vogler"—Character introductions, origin stories, and plot setup.
• "Angel of Death"—Police informants in witness protection are being killed.
• "Drug of Choice"—Energy drinks are being spiked with drugs, causing rage in, and murder from, all who drink them.
• "Kiss Me Thrice"—Gunter attempts to infiltrate Racken's mob.
• "The World Stage"—Prostitutes are killing gangsters and each boss thinks the other is responsible.
• "Cradle to Grave"—Everything culminates and ends with…a cliffhanger?
The Evidence
I now know how this one got by me. First, it aired across only two nights in August, a point on the calendar when I pay little attention to television. Second, the show lasted a blink-and-you'll-miss-it six episodes. Executive Producer Alan Spencer (Sledge Hammer!) notes in the commentary that a six-episode run was the grand plan all along, and that there is no cliffhanger but rather a definitive ending that is obvious if you pay close enough attention. In response I would say there is an ending that can be interpreted as definitive, but the final scene clearly leaves the door open for more to happen. No one ever walked through that door.
Regardless, the show simply isn't that funny. It's not for lack of trying, of course, and that's the root of the problem: Spencer, who is also the series' creator and sole writer, tries too hard to be funny. This show feels like an exercise throwing as many zingers in the script as possible and hoping enough of them stick. It's madness, and instead of it feeling like Spencer's best work, it feels like all of his work.
The law of large numbers says that that will find success at times, and it does. More times, though, it plods through immature duds and flirts with being pejorative. (Example: Gunter suspects his police partner had a secret same-sex relationship with the cop he is now posing as. A search of the late cop's apartment reveals CDs including Barry Manilow and the Xanadu soundtrack, embracing a homosexual stereotype and making a joke out of it. It's lazy at best, offensive at worst.
Another contributing factor to this is the experience of the cast. The funniest parts of the show are consistently delivered by polished veteran Izzard, as well as episode five's special guest, The Daily Show's Larry Wilmore (in what is the best scene across the entire series). Izzard and Wilmore know how to deliver funny lines and know how to make the most of lines that aren't as funny. Spencer also notes in the commentary that he let Izzard and Wilmore improvise. The rest of the cast doesn't have that kind of delivery or improvisational experience, and it shows.
What results from these two issues—every joke possible and a weak delivery system for them—is the feeling that many lines will quickly be followed by a wink and a nudge and a "see what I did there" quest for affirmation. Even the "joke" I quote in The Charge (above) screams for Fozzie Bear to appear, belting his trademark "Waka waka!"
What's frustrating is that Bullet in the Face is a clever conceit that gleefully wallows in tropes from classic (and neo) noir, as well as modern action films. There is a lot to mine from those genres, and some of the series' audaciousness could have worked wonders in those spaces had it all been properly developed.
The show also has considerable technical strengths. All of the periphery that is often taken for granted—settings, costumes, hair, make-up, etc.—are well conceived, designed, and executed. The visual is something of a cross between 1990's Dick Tracy minus the four-color splash and 1984's Streets of Fire minus all of the rain. It's like a living graphic novel, where everything onscreen has a distinct and dynamic style, all the way down to characters' faces, and it's a lot of fun to look at.
I wish Shout! Factory had produced a Blu-ray version of this because the 1.78:1 anamorphic transfer does a very good job spotlighting those great graphic novel visuals, even on this basic DVD release. The Blu rinse would have made those sharp images even sharper, and it surely couldn't have hurt the Dolby Digital 5.1 English track, which is perfectly fine—all crisp and clear—on this disc.
The only Extra is commentary by Spencer, who fills all six episodes with everything from on-set anecdotes and behind the scenes machinations to routine one-liners (even more jokes?!) and some industry name-dropping. Spencer has a lot to say, which is a refreshing change from some of the awkwardly-sporadic commentary found on some discs.
The Rebuttal Witnesses
For all of its flaws, the series is served well by being presented at once. Had I seen only the first episode, I don't think I would have returned for the second, but by approaching it as a single six-chapter work, I became a little more willing to go with it. That doesn't absolve the problems, but it makes the problems more bearable.
Closing Statement
Bullet in the Face isn't funny enough to be carried by laughs, nor bad enough to be so-bad-it's-good, and it is often times its own worst enemy. Still, there was something about binge-watching all six episodes that made the overall experiment entertaining. The whole wound up being greater than the sum of its parts (albeit barely).
The Verdict
Not guilty.

text: United Rentals Last up is United Rentals ( URI), a stock that's showing traders the exact same ascending triangle setup as the one in PNR. URI's horizontal resistance level at $56 is the price barrier that needs to get broken before we have the signal to enter a trade in this stock. With any technical pattern, it's critical to think in terms of buyers and sellers -- not shapes. After all, triangles, head and shoulders patterns and the like are a good way of describing what's happening on a chart, but they're not the reason why it's tradable. Instead, that all comes down to the supply and demand caused by those buyers and sellers. The horizontal resistance level at $56 is a place where a glut of sellers has been willing to step in and put a ceiling in the stock. A breakout means that increasingly eager buyers have absorbed all of the excess supply for shares sitting at that level -- and without that barrier in place, shares have room to rally to the upside. That's why it makes sense to wait for the breakout before buying this stock.

"Best place in the world" Mombassa by craigied2005
Mombassa Travel Guide: 5 reviews and 2 photos
Well welcome to Kenya
What can be said about this place ?(loads) Ivisited twice within six months and will be returning later this year when the animals are back at the masai
I have stayed on both sides of the river at the neptune paradise and the travellers club.Both hotels are great and close to great restraunts and full of great people.I have to say that i do prefer the south side as there is more to do in the day and places are easier to reach by night
Whilst in Kenya you must go to the Masai and have a safari there are other safaris that you can go on but compared to the Masai an absolute waste of money.Do not book through the rep though i have a good contact that can do the same safari as your tour operator at nearly half thr price and just as bloody good

You must take trousers and jumpers to go on safari you go early in the morning and at dusk and trust me its not the... more travel advice
If you end up in south mombassa you must eat at Ali Babas. A restraunt set in a cave the atmosphere is just wonderful... more travel advice

I bought this Book when it first came out. I still haven't gotten the author to sign it but he's in my sights. I just can't remember to bring it with me when we have our meetings.
I don't know how many they have but the pictures alone are worth the price.
Tennessee has such a wealth of fish species, it's a shame Pigmy Madtoms aren't as much a part of our conversation as bass and catfish.
What a bargain! Just ordered

When you get yours, check out that garfish. We've screwed this place up so badly, It's hard to believe that ten foot long fish used to roam around Tennessee.
I paid full pop for my copy, btw. Now if only we could get Dr. Etnier on a daily podcast. "Ets" is one of the fastest wits around.
Great book
I never get into my bass boat without it.
Ok, the big book o fish

There's plenty of reason for optimism for both metro teams heading into today's District 1-2A baseball opener.
Seventh-ranked Bushland, carrying the first top-10 baseball ranking in school history, heads to River Road for a 4:30 p.m. game that figures to provide a serious test for both teams.
Bushland (15-2) is looking to keep up its stellar athletic success this year, and the Falcons haven't disappointed on the diamond.
"The kids have all worked hard," Bushland coach Jeff Smith said. "I've had this particular group of kids for three years now. We've always talked about expecting to do well every year, but we know we could have something special."
The Wildcats (7-6) think they're prepared to take on a team on Bushland's caliber to open district.
"I think our predistrict schedule helped us out a bunch," River Road coach Bart Upchurch said. "In every game, we've had a chance to win. Baseball's baseball, no matter who you are, and that's what these kids know."
Neither coach gave hints as to who his starting pitcher would be. Bushland has three candidates - Rawley Gomez, Monty McCasland and Sterling Kiper. Gavin Jimenez and Zach Blankenship are River Road's top choices.
How significant district play is could be argued because 1-2A has only three teams (Sanford-Fritch is open today), and all of them make the playoffs. But momentum and seeding should provide plenty of incentive in the triple round-robin format.
"We need to be sure we're hitting our stride come playoff time even though everybody makes the playoffs," Smith said. "Sometimes with all three teams getting in, you have to stay on (the players) about being focused."

Ziller Karaoke & Bar's private rooms and booths reverberate with the sounds of friends crooning to one another amid ambient neon hues, laser lights, and a selection of Asian and American pub fare. The bar's extensive catalog of hit tunes provides fodder for spotlight-ready vocal chords, and its Karaoke Camstar system employs cameras to capture performers and insert them into projected music videos laden with special effects and shots of sports cars made of cash. As nights unfold into impassioned displays of singing prowess, the resident team of mixologists keep tables stocked with a spread of cocktails and bottle service to fuel singing into the late evening hours.

Hyundai Tucson review
Mini-SUV looks are combined with a spacious, well kitted out interior in a practical family crossover
Sponsored Links
The Tucson may have an old name, but everything about it is new and considerably better. It faces some very stiff opposition in the shape of the Nissan Qashqai and Renault Kadjar, but the Hyundai Tucson competes well on almost every level.
It looks more visually striking thanks to a design that has filtered down from the larger Santa Fe, but inside it can look a little bland and uninviting up against the Renault.
The Tucson is incredibly spacious and dwarfs some of its competitors when it comes to practicality and boot space, while it comes with a generous amount of standard kit, too. We'd stay well clear of the petrol engines, but go for one of the diesel options and you'll have yourself some well-priced, well-kitted out spacious family transport.
In the UK the Tucson name was last seen on a Hyundai in 2009. Boldly styled, that car focused more on value for money than coming across as a quality product, but Hyundai stepped things up when replacing it with the ix35. The brand packed lots of kit into a decently made car that rivaled the Nissan Qashqai and Skoda Yeti. Now the Tucson name is back on a brand new small SUV that supersedes the ix35 with a new chassis, new engines and a brand new tech.
Since the Tucson was last around the small SUV sector has boomed. So the new Tucson can count a large number of very capable cars as rivals. The main opposition includes the Nissan Qashqai, Skoda Yeti, Mazda CX-5 and the new Renault Kadjar.
The Hyundai Tucson takes up the ix35's baton and has an attractive package of mini Hyundai Sante Fe looks, great build quality, efficient engines and a strong suit of safety kit all backed up by Hyundai's excellent five-year unlimited mileage warranty.
Under the bonnet you'll find a 133bhp 1.6 petrol, and 113bhp 1.7 and 134bhp 2.0 diesels all with front-wheel drive. For those who want all-wheel-drive grip, the 174bhp 1.6 petrol turbo and 182bhp 2.0-litre diesel come with a 4x4 system (the front wheels receive 100 per cent of torque during normal road driving with up to 50 per cent sent to the rear wheels, automatically, depending on conditions). Six-speed manual and dual-clutch automatic gearboxes are on offer (manual only on the entry-level 1.6).
There are five trims available too – S, SE, SE Nav, Premium and Premium SE with even the entry-level S coming with 16-inch alloys, air conditioning, Bluetooth and six airbags. Top drawer Premium SE adds big-car luxury kit like heated and cooling electric front seats, heated steering and an electric tailgate, but mid-grade SE Nav easily offers the best kit for a reasonable price – climate control, parking sensors, 17-inch alloys and Lane Keeping Assist come as standard.
Engines, performance and drive
The Tucson has been built from scratch and features a brand new chassis. In terms of ride comfort, the Tucson is another step up from its predecessor and offers supple suspension that can easily deal with potholes and nasty road imperfections.
It's quiet too – even in the most powerful 2.0-litre diesel 4WD model, the engine's noise never really enters the cabin and it's a hushed place to be when cruising on the motorway. Despite the soft suspension, body roll is good, too – there's no unpleasant leaning through fast corners thanks to the excellent body control.
The automatic gearboxes are all-new dual clutch transmissions, and while they're great for driving and give a more relaxed feel, we'd suggest sticking with the manual gearbox, which is cheaper and very smooth to operate.
Image 2 of 12
For most people, the Tucson will be more than adequate to drive, but for those who like their SUVs to be especially sporty behind the wheel the Tucson falls short – the Mazda CX-5, for example, is far more pleasurable and exciting to drive.
In fast bends, the Tucson's steering doesn't give you much feedback on what the front wheels are doing. It is accurate, though, and on SE models or higher the Flex Steer system weights up the steering at speed. But it doesn't help to deliver any more feel.
For this type of car, the diesel engines are the ones to go for. The 1.7-litre diesel is the same engine that was available in the old Hyundai ix35 but has been tweaked to make it more fuel efficient. It's not the most powerful engine in the range with only 117bhp but it's up to the job and delivers adequate performance for a family of five.
The more punchy 182bhp 2.0-litre diesel is all-new and very smooth for a diesel engine. It can also be had with the new automatic gearbox, which makes it very relaxing to drive on longer journeys. The engine has far superior towing and off-road ability as four-wheel drive is available, too. The only issue is that the 2.0-litre only comes in conjunction with top-spec models so can be costly option.
If petrol engines are the choice for you, Hyundai has two 1.6-litre options, although we wouldn't advise buying either. They're both quieter to drive than the diesels, but they don't produce enough torque so you really have to keep your foot down to make any sort of progress. The result is poor fuel economy and less relaxed drive.
MPG, CO2 and running costs
The Tucson is available with a number of engines and gearboxes and is designed to offer competitive running costs. The most popular combination will likely be the 1.7-litre diesel mated with a six-speed manual gearbox that returns 61.7mpg and emits 119g/km.
For some buyers, the extra grunt from the 2.0-litre diesel will be more desirable and it'll still return 59mpg and 127g/km of CO2 in 2WD form. Compared to the diesels, the 1.6-litre turbo petrol looks uncompetitive with CO2 emissions figures of over 170g/km.
Image 8 of 12
Hyundais are no longer the cheap cars they used to be so the new Tucson's on the road price can look steep compared to those of the old ix35 model. However, Hyundais now have much stronger residuals and there's no reason why the new Tucson shouldn't follow this recent trend.
Prices start from £18,695 and rise to £32,345 for the top of the range Tucson models. Over the course of three years and 60,000 miles, the Tucson will retain around 42 per cent of its original value. That's a very competitive figure in its class, meaning the Tucson will hold more of its value when you come to sell than rivals like the Nissan Qashqai.
Insurance groups
Comparable in price to its rivals, the Tucson also boasts relatively low insurance groups that start from group 15 and rise to group 25. This should help keep premiums lower than you'd get in most mainstream rivals.
Interior, design and technology
Hyundai has styled the Tucson to look like a mini Sante Fe – and that is no bad thing as the larger SUV is a very handsome car. This is particularly evident at the front where the Tuscon has gaping chrome grille that links up to headlights that are smeared backwards onto the front wings.
Squared off wheelarches and a 'z-shape' shoulder crease down the car's flanks give the impression the Tucson is moving while it's stationary. The rounded rear end is smart, while the rear light clusters have a similar look to some of Hyundai's other models such as the i20 supermini. The overall look is a far cry from the bulbous ix35 making this easily one of the best looking small SUVs on the market.
Image 3 of 12
Inside, the ix35's haphazard dashboard layout has been replaced with something that's far neater and more ordered. Interior quality has taken a big step forward too with the overall fit and finish easily rivaling anything with a Volkswagen badge.
Easy to read dials, the extensive use of squidgy soft-touch plastics and a first-rate infotainment system are particular highlights, but despite these gains in quality, the interior has an air of blandness – the Nissan Qashqai and Renault Kadjar have dashboards that are more interesting to look at.
Sat-nav, stereo and infotainment
The cabin may not be very visually attractive but the layout and design are both very functional. The dash is simple but you can see where everything is so you don't have to go poking around trying to work out how to adjust the air con or find your favourite radio station.
Image 5 of 12
The touchscreen infotainment system is very bright and responsive, with easy to navigate menus. All Tucsons come with DAB radio, Bluetooth and air conditioning inside, while SE models benefit from rear parking sensors, heated front seats and climate control. The touchscreen and navigation system come as standard on SE Nav models and above.
Practicality, comfort and boot space
Four six-footers won't have any trouble getting comfortable in the Tucson thanks to a roomy cabin that's near the top of the class space-wise. Room in the boot is competitive as well; with the back seats in place, there's 513 litres on offer.
This swells to 1,503 litres with the backs seats folded, which is comfortably larger than the Kadjar's 472 and 1,478 litres. However, it's just a shame that the rear seat backs don't lie flat when folded, robbing the Tucson of a few extra litres of space.
Even with the Tucson's sloping roof, there's plenty of headroom too, and all the doors open wide allowing easy access. But that sloping roof does have impact on rear visibility though – parking sensors are a must.
The Tucson is both longer and wider than its closest rival the Nissan Qashqai, a car which isn't exactly short on space inside.
The larger body naturally makes for more space inside than some of the Tucson's most competitive rivals, so you certainly won't feel claustrophobic when you're behind the wheel.
Leg room, head room and passenger space
Image 4 of 12
Whether you're transporting three children or three adults, there'll be no complaints about a lack of space in the Tucson. Even behind a long-legged driver, there's still enough space for another adult, while the shallow transmission tunnel means there's also a good amount of leg room for those in the rear, too.
The 513-litre boot on the Tucson is 83 litres larger than the Qashqai's capacity, while with the rear seats folded flat space increases to 1,503 litres.
Image 6 of 12
If you go for the all-wheel drive Tucson, capacity is affected slightly to accommodate the additional driveshaft beneath the rear seats. Boot space decreases slightly to 488 litres with all five seats in place and 1,478 litres with the rear seats folded.
Reliability and Safety
The Hyundai is too new to have been ranked in any previous Auto Express Driver Power survey, but a fair few of the Korean company's models have been and have performed well.
In the 2015 survey the i10 city car finished an impressive third while Hyundai finished in 21st out of 32 – not a brilliant result but above a large number of its rival firms, namely Ford, Nissan and Volkswagen.
The Tucson scored a perfect five-star rating from the Euro NCAP crash tests thanks to a full suit of safety kit like a Blind Spot Detection system, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Autonomous Emergency Braking. It scored 86 and 85 per cent for adult and child protection respectively.
What also helped it score well are a full complement of air bags, a traction control system, electric stability management and ISOFIX child seat mounts in the rear. Every Tucson, whether you go for the entry-level version or the top-spec model, gets these safety features.
The Tucson also comes with Hyundai's excellent five-year unlimited mileage warranty that should give some peace of mind.
It's a huge selling point, which very few other rival manufacturers can offer. However, Hyundai's sister brand Kia does offer the Sportage with a seven-year/100,000 warranty, which is slightly better.
Hyundai offers buyers fixed-price servicing plans across its entire model range, meaning you a pay a lump sum up front which covers all your servicing costs over a certain period.
Prices for the Tucson should be similar to those on the old ix35, with three years' servicing costing from £399 for the petrol models and £499 for a diesel models.

- labels: --> WhiteSpace
- summary: WhiteSpace ProjectView OptionPane --> WhiteSpace ProjectViewer OptionPane for on-save actions
It would be nice if for some projects, I had whitespace doing some on save actions but for other
projects, it should just not do anything.
simple feature: request 1 checkbox "disable whitespace plugin" for this project.
Less simple: have a bunch of "on save actions" options in that option pane that override the general whitespace options. but that is perhaps not necessary.
