Tax hikes will affect residents with a property freeze
Published: Monday, April 8, 2013 at 7:36 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 8, 2013 at 7:36 p.m.
Taxpayers with so-called freezes on their property assessments will pay more if tax increases proposed on the May 4 ballot pass, officials said.
"We've had a lot of people call in who were not sure if their (tax) bill would be affected by the proposals," said Evelyn Pellegrin of the Terrebonne Parish Tax Assessor's Office.
Freezes lock in a taxpayer's assessed property value, but not the millage rate, she said. When the millage rate goes up, so does the tax bill.
Freezes are available to veterans who are disabled because of military service, anyone 65 or older with an annual income below $69,463 and some that receive Social Security benefits due to a disability, according to the Assessor's Office.
Freezes help people who are on a fixed income avoid cost increases due to rising property values. More than 3,000 residents of Terrebonne Parish have their assessment frozen, according to Pellegrin.
Terrebonne's School Board is seeking to increase its millage rate by 31 mills. Terrebonne voters will also be asked to approve a new 2.11 mill tax for inclusion in the Bayou Lafourche Freshwater District.
The owner of a home assessed at $150,000 — freeze or no freeze — will pay $302 more on next year's tax bill if both propositions pass.
Houma resident Judy Smart began asking questions about the potential increase to her tax bill in January.
Smart, a retiree, has her assessment frozen as she is older than 65.
"When I sat down and figured my taxes, I saw my increase was going to be just under $264. About half my (net) retirement check for December will go to (my total bill)," Smart said.
Smart said she is concerned about the perception among assessment-frozen taxpayers that the potential increases will not apply to them.
"Your property tax bill is not frozen," Smart said. "The value of your property is frozen, but you are still subject to pay more on millage increases."
Smart said she has been handing out fliers to raise awareness about the potential increases.
"If you want the millages, that is fine. Just be informed," Smart said. "I would hate for someone to go vote thinking because their assessed value is frozen, they will not have to pay increases."
Smart said those who have relatives or friends who might have a freeze should help spread the word.
Diana Edmonson, director of the Terrebonne Council on Aging, said her office is spreading awareness about the freeze issue at local community centers and during food distributions.

SANTA CLARA -- When the Earthquakes host the Houston Dynamo on Sunday at Buck Shaw Stadium, the match will pit coaches who were once top lieutenants for Frank Yallop with the Quakes.
Dynamo coach Dominic Kinnear, a Fremont native, and the Quakes' Mark Watson were assistants during memorable runs with San Jose, at different times.
"They're two wonderful people, that's all I'll say," said Yallop, now coaching the Chicago Fire. "If I hire them, they got to be good guys."
Yallop added that Watson and Kinnear "won't settle for second best" and expect "100 percent" from their players, just like he does.
"That's the reason that Dominic and Mark and myself all get along, because we all feel the same," Yallop said. "There's no difference to their teams than the one I'm coaching now."
Consider Watson and Kinnear friendly rivals. The Quakes-Dynamo games always have a little extra edge to them.
"I know Dom really well," Watson said. "He's a great guy, and he's a great coach. He obviously started here with Frank, and since then he's done a fantastic job. He's without a doubt one of the top coaches in the league."
Kinnear, likewise, respects the job Watson did last season, leading the Quakes to an 11-5-3 finish after Yallop resigned.
Kinnear served on Yallop's two MLS Cup-winning Quakes' squads, in 2001 and 2003, before becoming the team's successful head coach, when current Quakes general manager John Doyle was his assistant.
After the original Quakes relocated to Houston, Kinnear's career skyrocketed. He coached the Dynamo to MLS Cup titles in 2006 and 2007 and four runner-up finishes.
Kinnear's Bay Area roots run deep. He played at Kennedy High in Fremont and was teammates with Doyle on the powerful Fremont Celtic youth team, coached by Dominic's dad Hugh, and on the national team.
During his current trip to his home turf, Kinnear plans to spend time with siblings, friends and other relatives.
"I always enjoy coming back to the Bay Area," he said.

October 17, 2005
Two days after a fatal shooting at a party for teenagers, officers make an arrest. Monday afternoon, deputies arrested and charged 18-year-old Terrence Hanna with murder. News 12 has the latest on the investigation.
Investigators worked through the weekend to interview dozens of partygoers, some who fled before police arrived.
Police say 18-year-old Terrence "TJ" Hanna brought a gun to a party for teens Saturday night. An hour after it started, police say Hanna shot and killed Rodnick Patterson.
"He heard some guys screaming, they thought he'd actually been beat up then they actually saw a gun shot," said Gary Powell, Richmond Co. Sheriff's Office.
"Something always happens, someone pushes someone else they don't know and they're ready to fight," said Demetri McNair, victim's friend.
"They know that any time you get one of these parties for teens that is a pay at door, there's a history of trouble with this type of party," Powell said.
Col. Gary Powell oversees special deputy assignments for Richmond County deputies. He says two officers, and one from Hephzibah, wore uniforms and had badges and guns at the party Saturday night.
"They asked for six, but we had four, one was injured the day before and she had to back out, so there were three there that night," Powell said. "They set up a line outside and started searching, they noticed that one of the back doors was open and people were coming in and out. There was no control over that."
Powell says Sharika Moore is the organizer of Saturday's party. A friend who answered her phone complained that a flyer advertising the event has been misinterpreted. She says the subtitle "Unfinished Business" was in response to kids wanted another party. And what about the phrase "This time we ain't shutting down nothing early?" The friend says that meant organizers wouldn't tolerate any fighting.
The organizer's friend, who did not give her name, says at the first teen party a couple months ago, a fight broke our and the party was shut down.
So what about future parties for teenagers? Another co-organizer of Saturday's party, Tina Hampton, says there are none scheduled. And Col. Powell says they are considering whether these should happen in the future at all.

I like Anne's musings on jean shorts much more than I liked her defense of Jennifer Lawrence. There is no shame in gaining weight during pregnancy (or ever). There is no shame if it takes longer than you think it will to lose the weight (if you want to lose it at all). There is no shame in finally breaking down and making your own jean shorts because last summer's are just too dang short for this summer's thighs. Bodies change. Bodies grow. Bodies shrink. It's all love (don't let anyone tell you otherwise.) Peace xx #noshame #lovewhatyouhavebeengiven Full Story

A Senate judiciary committee backed a proposal that would remove a requirement that judges retire after reaching age 70 and completing their current terms.
The bill (Senate Bill 5) heads next to the full Senate for debate. If approved by the House and Senate, the constitutional change also would require approval from voters in a statewide election.

Advancing women's leadership across sectors is one of the central imperatives of Re:Gender's work and mission. Although women have made great strides in education and professional training, this achievement does not always translate into increased numbers of women leaders. Researchers, advocates, and policymakers in business, academia, philanthropy, and the non-profit sector have been grappling with the leadership gap and seeking strategies to remove barriers to women's advancement. Re:Gender is working closely with its partners to expand the pipeline and ensure that more women are empowered to take on leadership roles.

Incline Village athletes made their hometown proud by running, skiing and golfing their way to multiple state championship titles in 2011.
The Bonanza narrowed down those many achievements into the top 10 sports stories of the year.
1. Lila Lapanja named to U.S. Ski Team
At 16, standout Incline Village alpine ski racer Lila Lapanja was named to the U.S. Ski Team's Development Team this past spring — an honor bestowed on only 10 women in the country. And she earned every bit of the prestigious promotion. After a successful 2010-11 season in which she earned a silver medal in slalom at the J2 National Championships and took third in the overall junior combined at U.S. Nationals, Lapanja carried that momentum into the U.S. Ski Team Women's Development Tryout Camp at Mammoth Mountain, where she wowed U.S. coaches with her well-rounded performance and character. "She's a very mature young athlete, she's very driven and she has some remarkable athleticism," said Seth McCadam, head coach of the U.S. Ski Team's Development Team. "She's such a hard worker, that with her attributes, she is somebody we look at to have long-term success in alpine racing."
2. Incline girls win third consecutive state cross-country title
There really was no stopping the Incline girls' cross-country team from bringing home a third straight state championship. The Highlanders were too good to be denied. Incline's heavily favored girls captured three of the top five places in the NIAA 2A state meet while all five of their scoring runners finished in the top 10 to run away with the three-peat. Senior Katie Cochran led the way, finishing second individually. Melanie Swick finished third, while teammates Chloe Dodge was fourth, Kate Ballan was ninth and Haley Kennedy was 10th to round out Incline's top five scores (the number used for the team result). The Highlanders were deep, too, as Sophia Mourelatos wasn't far behind in 13th, and Molly Franklin placed 16th to give the Incline girls seven top-20 finishes on the day — all of their competing runners. With such impressive individual performances, they easily won the state title with a low score of 28 points to runner-up Sage Ridge's 70.
3. JP Donovan outlasts competition to sweep Squaw Valley uphill races
Both winter and summer, JP Donovan owned Squaw Valley USA's uphill races in 2011. The 2005 Incline grad upset a strong field of Nordic skiers and snowshoers by racing to a first-place finish wearing running shoes in the 22nd annual Billy Dutton Uphill in April. He then backed up the performance by outdistancing an even deeper field of runners to win the 31st Annual Squaw Mountain Run in August. Both races cover 2,000 vertical feet in 3.2 miles to High Camp, at 8,200 feet. Donovan posted a winning time of 34 minutes and 39 seconds in the Billy Dutton Uphill to outdistance multi-time winner Tav Streit, who, racing on skis, finished runner-up in 35:50 (skiers hold a distinct advantage due to a gradual downhill slope to the finish line). In the Squaw Mountain Run, Donovan held off Galen Burrell of San Francisco to take the win in 29 minutes and 52 seconds to Burrell's 30:14. A total of 524 people participated in the run.
4. Marie Johnson represents USA in Whistler Cup
The United States sent its top three male and female ski racers ages 13-14 from each of the three regional race divisions to compete against the world's best J3 racers at the 19th annual Whistler Cup this past spring — and Marie Johnson of Incline Village was one of them. Johnson, a member the Squaw Valley Ski Team, competed among 25 participating nations and 95 girls total. "They are the best J3 ski racers in the country," said USSA National Competition Director Walt Evans. Johnson finished 18th in the super G and 30th in the GS. She also helped lead Team USA to the win in the K2 (J3) Nation's Cup, also known as the Team Children's II title.
5. Grace Dolan wins slalom, GS and overall ski titles
Grace Dolan, a then-junior at Incline High, needed to be on her game to pull off a win in the Tahoe Basin League state championships at Sierra-at-Tahoe this past March. She was. Competing against a talented field that included some of the top Far West racers in the region, Dolan swept through the state championship races, winning both the slalom and giant slalom races to claim the overall title. "It was very impressive what she did," said Incline head ski coach Joe Humasti. "The field that she was against was very competitive … She beat some of the top kids in the area."
6. Incline girls win 2A track and field state championship
Not surprisingly, the same talented group of Incline girls that won the state cross-country title the previous fall — and would again for a third consecutive year this past November — used a balanced mix of speed and endurance to also win the NIAA 2A state track and field championship. The Incline girls won the state championship with a collective score of 121 points to runner-up Pershing County's 100.16. Katie Cochran and Chloe Dodge led the way, racing to individual state titles in their respective events. Cochran won the 800-meter run and was part of the Incline girls' winning 4x400 and 4x800 relays, while Dodge won the 3,200 and was part of the winning 4x800 relay. Among the relay teams, three of the four squads won titles, and the other one finished second.
7. Jordan Wright captures 2A state golf championship
Incline's Jordan Wright followed in the footsteps of his sister, Katie — who won four consecutive state titles between her freshman and senior years — when he won his first NIAA 2A state golf championship as a junior this past spring. The southpaw carded a 76 at Genoa Lakes Golf Course on Day 1 and a 73 at Edgewood-Tahoe on Day 2 to earn the 2A state title by two strokes, 149-151, over defending state champ Foster Kenton of Mineral County. And he did it in adverse conditions, as wind and rain greeted the state golfers on the first day of the tournament and blustery snow showers made for a chilly and difficult second day. "He's a true champion," said longtime Incline golf coach Joe Humasti. "The kid comes through in pressure situations."
8. Grace Dolan wins 2A state golf title
Simply put, Grace Dolan performs well in the clutch. Having already garnered multiple state titles in alpine skiing for the Highlanders, the Incline senior added another one when she captured the NIAA 2A state golf championship at Ruby View Golf Course in Elko this past October. Dolan posted a two-day score of 193, shooting a 94 on Day 1 and a 99 on Day 2. It was a difficult course, and conditions were poor at best, as rain on the first day and high winds on the second day challenged everyone in the field. "I was really feeling the pressure," Dolan conceded, "I think even more so than skiing, actually. In skiing, you have like a minute going down the hill, but in golf you have like four and a half hours. It's definitely a mental game." With the encouragement of coach Joe Humasti and her Incline teammates, Dolan pulled through for the win.
9. Tommy Dolan, Chip Bouchard climb baseball ranks
Never mind that there were only three months in 2011 when it did not snow in Lake Tahoe. Incline baseball players Chip Bouchard and Tommy Dolan represented the community as if it were sunny Southern California or Florida as the boys of summer. During the spring and summer Bouchard, now a junior at Incline High, was selected to play for the two-time defending NBC National Championship 18U team out of Denver, Colo., the Colorado Outlaws, while Dolan, an Incline freshman, was one of only 18 players from seven Western states selected to attend the Sept. 9-11 USA Baseball National Team Identification Series in Cary, N.C., which is used to whittle down the country's top regional players to form the USA National Team.
10. Incline boys' basketball team plays into 2A state championship
After Incline won the school's first NIAA state basketball championship in 20 years with a skilled cast of experienced seniors in 2010, some may have expected the Highlanders to stumble through a rebuilding year or two. Not so. With first-year head coach Brian Broaddus at the helm, the Highlanders — who lost eight seniors, and all five starters, to graduation — played deep into the state championship tournament before losing to a fresher Agassi Prep team in the title game. Incline upset top-seeded Needles, 67-65, on a dramatic, last-second shot by Bobby Thoms in the state semifinal. Worn down both physically and mentally from the emotional battle the night before, the Highlanders then found themselves on the losing end against Agassi Prep. The Highlanders finished the season 22-6 overall; they're already off to a 10-3 start to their 2011-12 campaign.

Q and A: Quvenzhané Wallis
Published: Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 4:55 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 4:55 p.m.
Staff Writer Kris Johnson had interviewed "Beasts of the Southern Wild" star Quvenzhané Wallis last week. The 9-year-old Houma actress starred in the Terrebonne Parish-filmed movie. She got a best actress Oscar nomination last month for the role of "Hushpuppy," which was her first acting job. Winners will be announced Sunday. During the phone interview, Wallis shared her experiences since her rise to fame and told us a little bit about this weekend's Oscars.
Do your friends at school know you were in the movie?
Yeah. They know and they ask me about it. But they don't like blab about it or anything.
Do they think you're famous? What do they say to you about it?
When I come back to school, they're like "How fun was it?" But that's it. Then they're my friends again.
We hear you're in another movie, "12 Years a Slave." Tell us how you remember your lines. It must have been hard when you were in "Beasts of the Southern Wild" because you were so young and it was your first movie?
My mom helps me. She reads them over and over again with me and plays the other characters.
What's your favorite thing to do at home when you're not doing homework or practicing your lines for a movie?
Playing with my dogs and watching TV, being bored. I have two dogs, but they aren't really mine. They're for my brother and my sister, but she's never there.
What famous person would you like to be in a movie with some day?
I don't know.
Well, what's your favorite movie?
"Finding Nemo."
OK. So you were on the "Ellen" show and Ellen DeGeneres was the voice of Dory. Would you like to do a movie with her one day?
Yes, maybe with Ellen.
Since you were in "Beasts of the Southern Wild," what's the most fun or exciting thing that has happened to you?
Going to Universal Studios in Florida. It was so fun. They had water parks and stuff.
I know everyone keeps asking you what you're wearing to the Oscars. And you keep saying you don't know. But tell me, if you could wear anything you want, what would it be? Would you be dressed up in a dress or would you want to be comfortable in something like jeans?
I really like both. I like jeans and being comfy, but I also like getting all dressed up, but all black creeps me out. So I want to wear anything except that.
Other than an actress, what do you want to be when you grow up? Why?
A dentist. To see people smile.
When you're traveling all over the country for interviews and other events, what do you miss the most about Houma?
My friends and family. Oh yeah, I miss food too. My favorite is like really spicy seafood or stir fry.

ARLINGTON – The Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Volleyball team picked up a non-conference victory over a longtime Southland foe on Monday, earning a 3-0 (25-14, 25-23, 25-22) sweep over the UT Arlington Mavericks in the Labor Day matchup. The win marked the first win over UTA in Tony Graystone's tenure as the Islanders head coach, and was just the second time in program history that they had come out victorious against the Mavs.
The team is now 5-3 on the year with the victory, while UTA goes to 3-5 on the season. Shannon Hullum led the way for the Islanders, putting away a match-high 13 kills, followed closely by Brianna Brink's 13 kills on the day. Micah Nolan set a new personal best with five service aces in the match and also led the way with 18 digs. Logen Bourque picked up 35 assists on the offensive side, Brooke Alverson came up just short of double-digits at nine kills and Baresh had eight to go along with her career-high 15 digs.
In the opening set, UTA scored the first point, but the Islanders picked up the next seven on three services aces from Nolan, two kills from Hullum and a combined block by Baresh and Alverson for a 7-1 lead. With the advantage down to three at 9-6, a pair of kills from Alverson and a block assist from Brink and Alverson stretched the lead back to six at 12-6. A kill by Hullum made it a 16-9 deficit, the biggest of the set for the Mavs, and forced a UTA timeout.
UTA got a point following the break, but a kill and block solo by Hullum extended the advantage to 18-10. With the score 23-14, Baresh earned a kill to bring up match point, and Brink finished the set off with a kill of her own for a 25-14 win and a 1-0 lead for Texas A&M – Corpus Christi.
The second set was markedly different from the start as Alverson picked up two early kills, but three Islanders attack errors gave UTA a 6-3 advantage early on. A kill each from Baresh, Alverson and Brink knotted the score at 6-6, but the Mavs responded with four consecutive points of their own to put Texas A&M – Corpus Christi into a 10-6 deficit. In a set that saw the momentum swing back and forth throughout, the Islanders responded with kills from Baresh and Hullum while Nolan picked up another service ace to bring the lead down to one at 14-13, forcing a UTA timeout.
After the timeout, the Islanders tied it at 14-14 on a Mavs attack error, but UTA scored three-of-four points to make it a 17-15 lead. Texas A&M – Corpus Christi would rally to take the lead, and at 20-19, would get a kill from Brink and two from Hullum to make it 24-20 for set point. The Mavs would not go quietly however, scoring three straight points to make it 24-23, but an attack error by UTA ended the set at 25-23 for a 2-0 lead in the match for the Islanders.
In the final set, UTA raced out to a 5-1 lead. Kills by Hullum and Alverson helped cut the deficit to one before a combined block by Hullum and Tyger Holt even the score at 9-9. Although the score was close throughout, the Islanders first lead did not come until late in the set. Trailing 18-15, back-to-back kills by Baresh started the rally, one from Alverson tied the score and a UTA attack error gave Texas A&M –Corpus Christi a 19-18 advantage. The Mavs called a timeout late in the period while trailing 23-21 and scored coming out of the break to make it 23-22, but an attack error and an Alverson kill ended the match on a 25-22 set victory.
Next up for the Islanders will be the final pre-conference tournament this coming weekend. The team will play in the Mean Green Invitational against Hofstra, Eastern Michigan and host North Texas.

MOREHEAD, Ky. -- The Morehead State football team opens its spring practice schedule on Tuesday. The Eagles are scheduled to have 14 workouts between March 26 and April 18.
"We're really excited about the beginning of spring practice," said Rob Tenyer, who was promoted to Morehead State's head coaching position in December after 12 seasons as an assistant.
Morehead State will practice at Jayne Stadium on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Intrasquad scrimmages are slated for April 6 and 13, while the annual Spring Game is set for April 20.
All workouts are open to the public and free of charge.
"We certainly encourage all Eagle fans to join us throughout the spring," Tenyer said. "We have a lot of talented players in all aspects of the program. We would also love to have a big crowd for the annual Spring Game. It should be a fun atmosphere."
Morehead State finished 4-7 overall and 3-5 in the Pioneer Football League a year ago, but averaged 63 points in wins over Southern Virginia, Campbell, Davidson and Valparaiso.
The Eagles led the conference in points (38.4), total yards (471.5) and passing yards (305.4) per contest. MSU also paced the league in third-down conversions (51 percent).
Morehead State returns seven individuals who earned PFL postseason honors in 2012 -- Ronald Cooper, Kalvin Harrington, Jordan Hendrix, Michael Jackson, Rob Lewis, Rees Macshara and Aaron Meadows.
Macshara, a running back, became MSU's first 1,000-yard rusher since 2000. He placed second in the PFL with 92.1 ground yards per game.
Hendrix, a linebacker, set MSU's single-season record with 123 tackles a season ago. He also ranked first in the PFL with 11.2 stops per contest.
"We have some very talented returnees on both sides of the ball," Tenyer said. "We're also excited about the newcomers because we have some individuals who could contribute right away."
The past two years, with Tenyer as offensive coordinator, Morehead State set 29 school records and led the PFL in points, total yards and passing yards.
"This is a new era for us," Tenyer said. "About 95 percent of the things we're going to do are going to be new. The 2013 season will certainly be an opportunity for us to grow and improve."
Tenyer's assistant coaches are Craig Mullins, Phil Burnett, Dontae Wright, Patrick St. Louis, Andre Woodson, Brett Rude, Rod West, Andrew Doan, Wes McDermott and Matt Forrest.
"Our program is going to be built on three main principles," Tenyer added. "No. 1, we want to educate and graduate our student-athletes. No. 2, we want to build a campus and community camaraderie. And finally, we want to win Pioneer Football League championships. If we stay focused on those three objectives, I know we will be in good shape."

LAKELAND, Fla. (AP) -- Retired Publix president Mark Hollis has died at a Florida hospital.
The Florida-based supermarket chain says Hollis died Friday at the Lakeland Regional Medical Center. He was 78.
Hollis served as the company's president from 1984 until 1996, when he was elected vice chairman of the board of directors. He retired in 1999 and remained on the board until 2005.
Public CEO Ed Crenshaw says Hollis was "a Publix icon." Hollis' first job with the company was bagging potatoes in 1946 at age 12. He rose from store manager to various executive positions before joining the board in 1974.
Hollis graduated from Stetson University in 1956 and earned a master's degree from Michigan State University.
Publix employs more than 156,000 people in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama and South Carolina.
BEIJING (AP) -- China's main gauge of inflation rose 2.0 percent in November, up from the previous month's 1.7 percent, driven largely by food price increases, the government said Sunday.
The 3.0 percent rise in food prices included an 11.3 percent boost in the cost of vegetables, which was due to cold weather disruptions, the National Bureau of Statistics said. Food prices are unusually sensitive in a society where the poorest families spend up to half their incomes to eat.
China's economic growth has been slowing, falling last quarter to a three-and-a-half-year low of 7.4 percent as the country's leadership pursues a policy of targeted stimulus. The government has aimed to keep a lid on any economic overheating and sharp price rises that followed its huge stimulus in response to the 2008 global crisis.
Forecasters expect growth to rebound this quarter or early in 2013, but say it will be gradual and likely too weak to drive global growth.
ROME (AP) -- Premier Mario Monti has told Italy's president that he's resigning soon.
Monti says he can no longer govern after Silvio Berlusconi's party withdrew crucial support. It paves the way for early elections a year after the unelected economist helped pull the country back from the brink of financial disaster.
Only hours earlier, Berlusconi announced he would run for a fourth term as premier in early 2013, aiming for a dramatic comeback, considering the billionaire media baron quit in disgrace in November 2011.
The office of President Giorgio Napolitano says the premier told the head of state on Saturday that without the support of Berlusconi's party, "he cannot further carry out his mandate, and consequently made clear his intention to resign" once Parliament passes a crucial budget bill soon.
Political turmoil in Italy, mired in recession and trying to escape the eurozone sovereign debt crisis, could spook financial markets, which, with Monti at the helm, had steadily regained faith in the country's ability to honor its debts.

BARBOURVILLE, Ky. - The 18th-ranked Union women's basketball team pounded the paint and came away with a big 83-48 Appalachian Athletic Conference victory over visiting Columbia (S.C.) on Saturday.
Union scored 68 points in the paint with senior center Lindsey Waters and freshman center Lydia Nash lead the way with 17 points apiece. Waters also grabbed 11 boards for her second double-double in a row and sixth of the season. She also had three blocked shots, extending her streak to a career-best 17 games with at least one block. In addition, Waters is only eight points away from becoming the 16th member of the Lady Bulldog 1,000-point club.
The win improved Union to 12-5 overall and 5-2 in the AAC, while Columbia dropped to 5-14 overall and 2-5 in league play.
The Lady Bulldogs controlled the game from the outset, opening up a 24-4 cushion following an Amber Taylor bucket with 10:30 to go in the half. The Fighting Koalas cut the deficit down to 15, but Nash hit back-to-back baskets to end the period to send Union into the locker room up 43-24.
The second half was a repeat of the first. Union led by as much as 38 points en route to the 83-48 decision.
Union scored 30 points off of Columbia's 31 turnovers and got 43 points from its bench. In fact, Waters was the only member of the starting five to crack double digits.
After Waters and Nash, Brooke Hill chipped in 11 points with Marah Rice adding 10. Union narrowly won the battle on the boards, outrebounding Columbia 53-51.
For the Koalas, Krystal Morissette led the way with 16 points, while Nikki Craig registered a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds.
Union hit 42.5 percent (34-of-80 shots) from the field and made 4-of-15 (26.7 percent) on its 3-point attempts. At the line, the Lady Bulldogs finished 11-for-18 (61.1 percent). Conversely, Columbia shot 30.2 percent (19-of-63) from the field and connected on 1-of-5 from long range. Columbia didn't help itself at the foul line, making only 9-of-26 (34.6 percent).
The Lady Bulldogs will play their next three games away from Robsion Arena, starting with a date at Point (Ga.) on Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. Union next plays at home on Jan. 26 against Tennessee Wesleyan.

Lincolnton, Ga--It's late in the season which means winning time in Lincoln County. Year after year the red devils start to peak right about now and this year is no exception. After their 49-6 win over Aquinas, it's off to Lincolnton for our Operation Football Live/Augusta Chronicle player of the week.
Franklin Sherman led the charge this past Friday. On the ground, through the air and in the huddle. All told a four touchdown performance for the senior. When he was a sophomore, Sherman tore his a.c.l. but has come all the way back to be a leader on this team.
"Franklin just has great work habits." said coach Larry Campbell "He studies films, he comes in on weekends and studies films. He learns coverages and knows where to throw the football and is just a team leader."
"I feel proud of myself" said Franklin Sherman "I mean every week the coaches prepare us for what we need to look forward to so I was looking forward to the big victory."
It was that injury that coach Campbell says may have scared off some college recruiters but feels a school will get a steal when they see just how talented Sherman is and in particular on the defensive side of the ball as a safety.

Senior Day proved to be a sweet, last memory for eight Bethany College seniors playing their last game at Anderson Stadium, as the Swedes rolled to a 37-26 victory over Southwestern College. Tevis Linnebur put Bethany up first with a 3 yard touchdown run with 10:29 left in the first quarter. Linnebur would add another rushing touchdown in the third quarter from 15 yards out and would finish with 162 yards rushing on the day. Senior Darby House went 13-of-20 and 103 yards passing with one touchdown, a four-yard pass to Chad Wollenberg in the first quarter to put the Swedes up 14-0. House also would carry the ball three times for six yards in his last game in a Bethany uniform, including a four yard keeper into the end zone that made it 21-10 at the half. Senior back up quarterback Zachary Waggoner also had one last moment to shine at Anderson Stadium, as he completed a 16-yard pass to D'Andre Thompson for a touchdown with 3:39 left in the game to put the Swedes up 37-26. Swede kicker Kevin Retchless booted through a 38-yard field goal as time expired in the third quarter to give Bethany a 30-17 lead. Southwestern was led in rushing by Jacobi Johnson, who accounted for 134 yards on 26 carries and one touchdown from two yards out to give the Moundbuilders their first score of the ballgame in the second quarter. Southwestern quarterback Jordan Barrett went 8-of-18 for 54 yards passing, including an 11-yard touchdown strike in the third quarter. Kicker Chris Mayer added field goals of 39 and 32 yards for the Moundbuilders. Bethany would end the day with 228 yards on the ground and 119 yards passing. The Moundbuilders rushed for 255 yards. The Swedes end their season with a 3-8 record, 2-7 in the KCAC.

Mountainous Greenhouses and Hydroelectric Power, Ladakh, India
Remote, rural communities in lesser developed countries often lack the infrastructure necessary for true self-sufficiency, requiring them to depend on inefficient and fossil fuel intensive solutions. The population of Ladakh, situated in the Indian Himalayas, endures harsh winters that block off passes, making it accessible by road for only a short period. Its remoteness coupled with a short growing season and small usable agricultural area, require that many foodstuffs be flown in by air. The remoteness of this community also limits the availability of electricity, with many of its inhabitants relying on diesel generators.
An integrated approach is underway to address the direct and indirect fossil fuel requirements of Ladakh. In order to combat the reliance on air delivered foodstuffs, 500 solar greenhouses were built to extend the growing season and increase local crop diversity. With the introduction of greenhouses, subsistence farmers now have access to a source of income through the sale of surplus vegetables at local markets. In addition to the greenhouse initiative, 20 micro-hydroelectric projects are being implemented to reduce diesel generator dependency.

Renewable Biomass Electricity, Karnataka, India
Agricultural practices in lesser developed countries can employ harmful greenhouse gas emitting farming techniques, such as those traditionally practiced in Karnataka, India. Traditionally, farmers practiced in situ uncontrolled burning of agricultural waste, which resulted in the release of carbon dioxide. With the construction of a 4.5 MW biomass power plant, local farmers now have an alternative. The agricultural waste once burned in the fields is now used to fuel a power plant that provides renewable electricity and a multitude of positive environmental and social externalities.
In addition to offsetting carbon by providing electricity with no additional carbon emissions compared to the status quo, this project also contributes to rural economic development, organic farming, and improved local air quality. The power plant employs approximately 650 people and injects over a million dollars into the farming community by purchasing the agricultural waste from the farmers. The ash from the electricity generation process is then sold back to farmers as a nutrient-rich, organic fertilizer, thus completing the agricultural nutrient cycle; and, as part of the process, farmers are encouraged to undertake organic farming practices. Finally, by centralizing and controlling the burning, particulate emissions are reduced, resulting in improved regional air quality.

INCAE Business School Solar Energy, La Garita Alajuela, Costa Rica
Introducing renewable energy projects through educational institutions represents both an effective means to meet energy demand, decrease carbon emissions, and educate future leaders in matters of sustainability. At Instituto Centroamericano de Administracion de Empresas (INCAE), Costa Rica's leading business school, solar panels were installed to meet the water heating demands for the entire school. By replacing the diesel boiler, the school's center for sustainability, working with an experienced engineering firm to monitor and further develop the project, reports savings of up to 2500 liters of diesel each month.
Through an innovative "Revolving Fund" mechanism, collectively managed by faculty and students, the financial savings of the project are reinvested in community carbon offset projects—resulting in even greater carbon emission savings. Through the involvement of faculty, students, and the local community, the project contributes to an increased awareness of climate change that results in even greater reductions in carbon emission.

First Wind Energy Plant, Antsiranana, Madagascar
As lesser developed countries become more technologically advanced, their energy consumption also increases. Many of these countries rely on out-dated and harmful means of energy production, including demand on fuel wood and charcoal—both of which contribute carbon dioxide to the atmosphere during combustion. Such is the case in the northern tip of Madagascar in the city of Antsiranana. Here a wind farm consisting of four turbines is being constructed that will help to replace energy derived from fuel wood, charcoal, and diesel-powered generators.
Beyond carbon offsets and the associated benefits of clean air and diminished deforestation, this project contributes to sustainable development in many ways. The turbines are partially constructed locally, providing jobs for and building the knowledge base of the community. In addition, the local organization Mad'Eole hopes to use this project as the starting point for a technology transfer that will encourage and enable other communities to adopt similar carbon neutral energy initiatives.

Tillamook Animal Waste to Energy, Tillamook, Oregon USA
Located in bucolic Tillamook, Oregon, the Tillamook County Creamery Association is famous for its cheeses and ice cream. In order to support the region's dairy requirements, thousands of cattle graze the surrounding pastures, creating large amounts of manure that lead to waste disposal problems. While some of the manure is used as fertilizer, another portion of this waste stream is now being diverted to generate renewable electricity.
The Port of Tillamook Bay's Methane Energy and Agricultural Development (MEAD) project utilizes four dual plug flow digesters to transfer manure from 4,000 dairy cattle into renewable energy. This electricity is then sold to the Tillamook Public Utility District and distributed to farms and residences in the surrounding community.
Intelligent site choice has negated a large portion of MEAD's footprint. Dirigible Hanger A, located on a former naval base, was destroyed in a 1992 fire that left only a bare concrete pad. All construction for this project takes place on that pad, which requires no additional excavation and greatly reduces the environmental costs of ecosystem disruption, resource consumption, and carbon emissions.

More Information
Our Wind Coop, Various sites in Washington and Montana USA
Rural areas often depend on electricity generated by distant power plants that are both geographically and economically disconnected from the communities they serve. Electricity loss through inefficiencies in transmission increase the amount of power required to meet demand, while non-localized generation increases the risk of extended outages with little ability to take direct action. Our Wind Coop is a unique cooperative of small-scale wind turbines on farms, ranches, and both public and private facilities across the Northwest. The project demonstrates how rural economic development goes hand in hand with community ownership of clean, renewable energy sources.
In Washington and Montana, 10-kW wind turbines were installed at sites serviced by publicly-owned utilities. The first turbine was installed in Peshastin, Washington, on July 3, 2003, which was celebrated by community members and project partners including Northwest Sustainable Energy for Economic Development, Bonneville Environmental Foundation, politicians, and utility representatives as Energy Independence Day. Three years later, after the project had gained public visibility, the tenth and final turbine was installed on the private property of a developer who practices "environmental conservation for a living."

More Information
Portland Brewery Blocks Solar Project, Portland, Oregon USA
Roughly half of the world's population lives in cities, yet most energy production takes place outside of these urban centers. This energy disconnect is problematic for several reasons including energy loss through transmission. With the recent performance increases in solar technology, it begins making sense to use the urban landscape as a staging ground for solar energy projects. This is the conclusion reached by the developers in Portland's Brewery Block—a brown field site once occupied by the 100 year old Henry Weinhard Brewery.
Project goals included both the desire for a state-of-the-art clean energy system as well as enhanced aesthetics. The project developers installed a series of black, microcrystalline, thin-film solar photovoltaic panels in the spandrel level (the space between each level of windows) of the new 10-story office building. These sleek panels integrate seamlessly with the design aesthetics of the building and serve as a demonstration that green does not compromise design, but instead enhances it. To further help with the educational demonstration, a kiosk was installed in the lobby in August 2006 and net proceeds from the sale of the associated RECs will be reinvested in additional renewable energy projects in Oregon.

Foote Creek II, Carbon County, Wyoming USA
The open plains in the central United States are some of the breeziest places in the country, providing ideal locations for wind generated electricity projects. The Foote Creek II project, an addition to the Wyoming Wind Project, consists of three 600-kW wind turbines. Surrounded by shrub steppe habitat with average annual wind speeds over 21 miles per hour, Foote Creek II produces enough electricity to power over 7,000 homes.
Beyond green energy, the environmental credentials of the project have been vetted by the Natural Resource Defense Council, Renewable Northwest Project, and Northwest Energy Coalition. One of the aspects that fostered these endorsements is Foote Creek II's state-of-the-art measures to prevent harm to birds. Beyond steps taken during development, it also has a continuing program to evaluate the effectiveness of these measures.

My first day in Tokyo, we went to Shibuya and walked to Harajuku. After the UT t-shirt shop I saw this Kona Ute next to this one shop/boutique. This is the only longtail I've seen in Japan, but though Japan may score low on the cargo bike parameter, this country is near tops for commuters. I've never been to Amsterdam, but in Copenhagen I saw a crapload of commuters. I think that if the subway/rail system wasn't the best in the world then there would be even more cyclists commuting. There are definitely less motorscooters here than Taipei too.
Versus contacted us via their interactive agency and are asking for input on their Tour coverage.
Readers do tell and we'll get it to Versus. They're listening and want to make the Tour better next year. My input was
"Pull Zabel out of that damn Take back the Tour ad. Make it less of a man show with a female correspondent, like Kirsten Gum. Engage more bloggers and die-hard fans."
Sign in on our desktop site or use this Google Doc and tell us how you cycle, where and what you ride, and your commute. Or something entirely different, like some crazy invention you got that'll make flats obsolete or maybe a new lube. We read all the comments we get.
My iPhone Omnifocus project for today is "election" – I'll ride to the polls, vote, and tick off the tasks to complete the project (last week it was Halloween). I use OF all the time on my iPhone, being mobile traveling, and riding. I also use
I've found a few bike-related apps; Bicycle Gear Calculator, Cychosis, and BikePower and wondered what readers are using? Do they work well?
An issue is that you've got to keep the iPhone on and that app active to get any results from a ride and look at the screen while riding.

Hey all,
Currently the X360 renderer is forcing transcoding audio to WMA2 (with WMV video) which does not support multi-channel audio and therefore everything being transcoded will be stereo only. WMA-PRO which is supported by the X360 supports multi-channel audio and has recently been reversed-engineered (can be decoded using ffmpeg since sep09) but unfortunately ffmpeg does not yet support encoding WMA-PRO (and I'm guessing it's a low priority) so until this is supported I thought about trying other formats.
Recently the DivX labs extension to Windows Media Center (Windows 7 only) added support for MKV + AC3 (no DTS) which can also be played on the X360 without full transcoding (blazing fast, it is hardware accelerated - CPU is at 1% while playing 720p MKV) I'm not sure what they are doing there but apparently if you convert your MKVs from DTS to AC3 you can play MKVs with 5.1 audio on the X360, the video quality seems to be lower which makes me believe they might be converting to MPEG-4 + AC3 and thus the lower video bitrate.
According to http://blogs.msdn.com/xboxteam/default.aspx the only valid combination (except WMA-PRO) for using multi-channel audio on the X360 is AVI: MPEG-4 Part 2 + AC3 (dolby), the bitrate is lower and the movies will have to be scaled down but it should work.
I changed MEncoderVideo.java to use vcodec="MPEG4" and the acodec to be AC3 which is supposed to be a valid combination for the X360, I then had the mime type be sent as "video/avi" but no matter what the X360 reports that the file type is not supported, forcing the channels to 2 does not work either.
Trying to use AviSynth/FFMPEG which is encoding using "mpeg2video" and AC3 also doesn't work so I figured I'll ask here.
Does anyone know what other combinations can be used on the X360 except WMV+WMA2? The X360 seems to refuse all other combinations and does not seem to care what is the mime type as long as the video is WMV encoded.
I also might be missing something so if anyone can tell me what else needs to be changed in ps3mediaplayer to have it transcode to MPEG-4 and AC3 (with muti-channel) it would be very helpful.. so far looking at the command line ps3mediaserver uses to call mencoder it seems like what I did should work but it doesn't

A Canandaigua woman faces a cruelty charge after an investigation revealed she played a role in the death of seven cats.
On Oct. 21 at 2:40 p.m. Ontario County Sheriff's Office Investigators charged Janet Lynn Serrano, 29, of 4187 East Ave. in Canandaigua with aggravated cruelty to animals after an investigation revealed she was allegedly responsible for the death of seven cats. Police said the cats were found dead in and around Lot #4 of Bloomdale Mobile Home Park in West Bloomfield.
A joint investigation by the Ontario County Humane Society and investigators revealed the suspect had allegedly used a flea bomb while some of the cats were left in the residence, and had allegedly left some of the cats without food or shelter, which led to their death.
The suspect will appear in West Bloomfield Town Court at a later date to answer the charge.

General Information
Of the 34 species of snakes that occur in Indiana, only 4 are venomous. Copperheads, cottonmouths, timber rattlesnakes, and massasauga rattlesnakes are the only venomous species found in Indiana, and they are rare and found only in certain parts of the state.
Prevention and Control
Snakes are less likely to frequent an area where they have little cover or food. Control rodent populations around your home, remove piles of junk, rocks, brush and boards, and keep grass mowed.
If a snake gets inside your home, you can purchase a glueboard at a farm supply or hardware store and place it against a wall but away from pipes or other objects that the snake could use for leverage to escape. For larger snakes, attach several glueboards side-by-side to a piece of plywood. Release snakes outside by pouring vegetable oil or common cooking oil over the snake where it is adhered to the glueboard. Glueboards should only be used indoors or under structures where children, pets and other wildlife cannot reach them.

When I add folders for sharing with my PS3, MP3/FLAC or any other MUSIC directory, the directory shows up in the VIDEO section of the PS3 ofcourse when you play the file you get an error that it won't play.
It would be cool to split up MUSIC and VIDEO directories so if I add a MP3 directory it will only show it in the MUSIC directory on the PS3 and when I add an X264 it only shows up the VIDEO section on the PS3. At the moment it will be added in both section.
That feature would be lovely, keep up the good work!

CORPUS CHRISTI – Sandra Burges has been named the GoIslanders.com Student-Athlete of the Week, presented by Pepsi. Burges earned the award after she went undefeated last week against Nicholls and Oral Roberts.
Burges went a perfect 4-0 last week as the Islanders assured themselves of their highest ever Southland Conference finish in program history. Burges earned a 6-2, 6-1 win at No. 4 singles against Nicholls, while teaming with Chelsea Horan to take an 8-2 final against the Lady Colonels.
She did an incredible job on Senior Day for the Islanders against Oral Roberts, winning 6-0, 6-0 in singles and 8-0 in doubles as she did not drop a single game during the match.
The Islanders win on Sunday assured them of a second-place finish in the Southland Conference and the No. 2 seed heading into the Southland Conference tournament next week. The event will be held starting on April 25 at the Thompson Family Tennis Center in Beaumont. The Lamar Cardinals will be the host institution, as the Islanders will look to earn their first ever trip to the NCAA Championships.

Cheddars Restaurant – Chicken And Ribs
Posted by LOTGK on September 18, 2013
The first time I went to Cheddars Restaurant it was a very good experience. The food was good, the service great, and the place clean. The second time however, well….
We did get seated right away, however, our waitress took over ten minutes to stop by and ask us what we wanted to drink. We had already made up our minds what we wanted for dinner and proceeded with not only the drinks but dinner as well. I went with the chicken and ribs combo.
Twenty minutes later my dinner arrived. It looked good. It smelled good. But….
In a nutshell, the chicken was under cooked, well, it was barely cooked. The breading was soggy and the inside chicken was cold and chewy. Not a good sign.
The ribs were supposed to be "Fall off the bone" tender. They were not. It was a challenge to get the meat off the bone.
The saving grace was the dessert, croissant rolls. They were tender, flaky, hot, and very good.
The Grassy Knoll Institute scores 2.5 out of 5 shots and recommends Cheddars for dinner just because of the previous experience.
