The Literacy Classic All-Star high school football game is returning to San Jose City College on Saturday night, but the matchup has changed in an attempt to make the contest more competitive.
This time, it's seniors from Santa Clara and San Mateo counties against seniors from the East Bay. Or, as game organizer Charles Nash put it, it's the 408 and 650 against the 510 and 925.
The game, scheduled to start at 7 p.m., marks a farewell of sorts for longtime Palo Alto coach Earl Hansen, who announced his retirement after the season. Hansen will coach the team from Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. Liberty's Jeff Walters will coach the East Bay team.
Hansen's team will include many area standouts, including Wilcox running back Delshawn Mitchell, linebackers Sione Finefeuiaki of Wilcox and Nick Pierotti of Terra Nova and quarterbacks Jonathan Walters of Saratoga and Will Fischer-Colbrie of St. Francis. "It's kind of fun to get to know some of these kids that we've been playing against and scouting," Hansen said.
In last year's game, the North team comprised of players from San Jose, northern Santa Clara County and San Mateo County routed the South team comprised of players from the southern end of the Central Coast Section through Morgan Hill 42-7.
But despite the one-sided result, the game was a box-office success as the teams nearly filled SJCC. Proceeds go toward literacy programs. A literacy banquet held last weekend in Pleasanton included some of the players and coaches that will be on the field Saturday.
"We honored 20 kids that participated in our summer six-week reading and writing program," Nash said.
Mountain View's best win this season occurred a week earlier, 2-1 over Serra. "That was very good that we beat them," forward Brad Bumgarner said.

Arrested 4 Minutes After Bank Robbed; Unemployed Man Told Deputies He Wanted Fresh Start
Published: Tuesday, January 1, 2013 at 11:54 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 1, 2013 at 11:54 p.m.
DAVENPORT | A man who was struggling to find a job and fed up with seeing young people driving new cars was arrested Monday just minutes after robbing a MidFlorida Credit Union in Davenport, according to the Polk County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies say 28-year-old Russell Sanford Jr., of 1209 Lakewood Road in Davenport, planned the robbery for two days before carrying it out. He told detectives that the idea came from a movie.
Sanford entered the bank on Ambersweet Way at 9 a.m. and demanded money from the bank manager and several tellers. According to an arrest report, he was armed with a loaded Springfield Armory handgun. The report says "the hammer was in the 'cocked' position, with one round in the gun chamber."
During the robbery, tellers were able to trigger a silent alarm, and as soon as Sanford left, they called the Sheriff's Office and provided a description to deputies. Another teller managed to get a cellphone photo of the robber's 1988 Jeep pickup as he drove off through the bank's drive-thru.
According to the report, Sanford left the bank with about $7,600 in cash.
Just minutes later, at 9:04 a.m., a deputy on patrol spotted the suspect's vehicle heading south on U.S. 27 and pulled him over, calling for backup.
Sanford, who had placed Band-Aids on his face to conceal his identity, was arrested and charged with robbery with a firearm.
During an interview, Sanford told detectives that he has been looking for a job and that it's unfair other people make more money than he does.
Sanford also said he was denied entry to the military, and he planned to use the money from the robbery to buy a bus ticket out of the state, where he could start a new life.
He is being held in the Polk County jail without bail.

Pat Robertson said on his television show Tuesday that members of San Francisco's gay community are intentionally trying to infect people with AIDS using a special ring.
Ever get the feeling that when Pat Robertson was young, he insisted on playing football without a helmet?
According to website Gawker, Robertson said to co-host Terry Meeuwsen on Tuesday's "700 Club" "You know what they do in San Francisco, some in the gay community there, they want to get people so if they got (AIDS) they'll have a ring, you shake hands, and the ring's got a little thing where you cut your finger. Really. It's that kind of vicious stuff, which would be the equivalent of murder."
Robertson churns out stuff like this every now and again, to keep us all amused. But this one may have topped them all.
In fact, it was so bad that his Christian Broadcasting Network -- the network Robertson created in 1961 -- edited out the comments before the episode ran.
According to RightWingWatch, the network did the same thing when Robertson apparently said he approved of spousal abuse.
Robertson later released a statement, saying he regretted his remarks, "had been misunderstood," and blamed the misunderstanding on people who "do not listen to the context of remarks which are being said."
He also provided some additional context, for those who misunderstand non-accusations that gay people have little James Bond rings on their fingers and go around shaking people's hands to spread AIDS.
"In my own experience, our organization sponsored a meeting years ago in San Francisco, where trained security officers warned me about shaking hands because, in those days, certain AIDS-infected activists were deliberately trying to infect people like me by virtue of rings which would cut fingers and transfer blood."
Oh. Well now everything makes perfect sense.

Another attempt to suppress government criticism?
Freedom of speech took another kick in the shins this week, on VOCM Open Line.
No, Open Line wasn't at fault – it's where I learned about the incident.
I had the program playing as background on Monday morning, while working at my desk. I missed the first part of this particular call, so I can't say what the person's issue was, though it sounded like a municipal complaint and there was a reference to Freshwater Beach. It seemed to be typical Open Line fodder.
The caller said he and his wife took their issue to the media recently, which did bring some attention to their cause.
But then he dropped a bombshell. After going to the media, the caller said his wife received a phone call from Jack Harrington, Executive Assistant to Health and Community Services Minister Jerome Kennedy, telling them to NOT talk to the media.
At this point, Randy Simms said "no names please," though it was too late – Harrington's name was out of the bag. I also turned on my tape recorder, to grab what remained of the conversation.
"I always thought we were free to speak on things that happen like this, and this is what this radio station is about. Why wouldn't I call? If there's nothing being done… That's what this is about, to try to get something done…"
The caller said Harrington brought a message on Kennedy's behalf: "The media do not scare us."
He added that they had been working on getting their issue addressed for several months. "It's only until (his wife) Bonnie called the media and the radio station that day that things started happening, that we've been getting calls back (from government)."
Callers to Open Line are anonymous, of course, so this may have been a prank call – though this person sounded perfectly real and legitimate to me. I invite him to get in touch, at gmeeker(at)nl.rogers.com. I would like to chat some more about this incident.
In the meantime, I sent off an email on Monday, to Jack Harrington, asking for his side of the story. The complete text of that message is copied below. I sent it on Monday. Do you think I will receive a reply?
Mr. Harrington,
This morning, on VOCM Open Line, a caller made a reference to you by name.
This caller was talking about a routine municipal complaint (I am not certain what the complaint was, but Freshwater Beach was mentioned).
The caller said he complained about this matter publicly. This, he said, was followed in short order by a telephone call from you, stating that such complaints should not be expressed publicly.
Did you make this call? If so, why? Was it at the direction of the minister?
I look forward to your reply.
Geoff Meeker
This episode is of interest to me because it is NOT an isolated incident. I wrote last year about another caller, to VOCM's Back Talk, who raised a startlingly similar allegation. Here is an excerpt from that entry:
I heard a bizarre call to Bill Rowe's Backtalk yesterday afternoon, on VOCM.
A caller named Kevin was picking up on the Danny Williams/Open Line fiasco. He told of an experience he had some time ago, after submitting a letter to the editor to the Telegram.
After the piece was published, he received a call from an unidentified woman, asking if he was the Kevin who wrote the letter to The Telegram. Kevin confirmed he was. Moments later, he received a phone call from his MHA.
"He was telling me off for writing the letter," Kevin said (and I am paraphrasing quotes from rough notes). "He was very intimidating and his voice was raised at first. It was like, 'Look how well we're doing. We're doing this for you. How dare you complain about it?' But I said, 'I thought we had free speech in this country,' and then he backed down and changed his tune. But I was shocked by it."
This floored me. Since when did our members of the House of Assembly become thought police, calling members of the general public to tell them off for exercising their right to free expression?

AppCRAFT and the Nokia World HackathonWednesday, November 9th, 2011
The dust has finally settled after what can only be described as the blast of a lifetime.
Those of you following me on twitter, facebook or wherever else it is you follow me these days may have seen a few of my updates over the last few weeks. I thought it good though to take a few minutes to put some the highlights of the past few weeks in a place for the history books. So here goes.
My Planning for Nokia World 2011, started back in July 2011. Noticing that Ideasproject was offering and all expenses paid trip to the event of the year, I started submitting idea's to their website, hoping that one of my idea's would win a top spot and help get me to the event. At the same time I encouraged my wife Ingrid, who is also my partner and ideator at AppCRAFT to do the same. The thinking was that since we usually come up with award winning idea's based on our winning applications at Calling All Innovators 2009, 2010 & 2011. We should try our hand at the Ideas Project.
I took the time to submit a few nice idea's in July.
Then in September I got some good news from a totally different department. As a member of the Nokia Developer Champion program, I had been invited to speak about the experiences of AppCRAFT at the upcoming Developer Champion day held in London a day before Nokia World. I quickly started prepping for the trip. Many things needed to be sorted. The most important of these was a Visa. Working closely with the Nokia team, I quickly got everything I needed for the Visa application. As is expected some items took quite some time to arrive and the deadline for Visa application came ever closer.
By mid October the wife and I headed to Cape Town to sort my visa. Sadly there was still no news coming from Ideasproject and so we figured we had lost.
After submitting my visa early on Tuesday morning 11 October, We started heading back on the long roadtrip to Plett. We stopped to fuel up just before Sir Louwries Pass. It was at this fueling point that things got interesting. The wife cleaned out the car and threw away the trash. After freshening up we were ready for the journey that lay ahead. Littledid we now just what type of journey reallylay ahead. We headed out and when we reached Sir Loureys Pass, I asked where my phone was, as it was no longer on charge on the dashboard. We quickly came to the shocking realization that the phone had fallen off the dashboard into the trash and had faithfully been discarded at the last stop. I quickly spun the car around and headed back to the fuel station.
When we pulled into the garage I drove straight to the trash can, jumped out and started digging in the trash. It wasnt long and I had 6 fuel station employees around me, asking what I was doing. This was the first time they had seen a white guy digging in the trash. After a minute or so I pulled my Nokia 5800 from the trash. There was a brief moment of silence and then like 1 man all 6 the attendants shouted. "EISH, yo yo yo yo!"
We joked around for a few minutes only to happy that we had been lucky enough to find the handset. It was at this stage that by force of habbit I decided to checked my emails. The email I got shook my world.
'Dear Simon, You know what, you did it again! You won a ticket to Nokia World with your idea "Nokia PreSchool". Congratulation I don't know if you heard already, but winners included also Ingrid Botes, who I assume, is your business partner! The most ironic thing is that the third winner comes also from South-Africa.' Karoliina Harjanne, Ideas Project.
Not only had I just won the trip to London, but my goal to get my partner to the event had also been realised. Our effort had paid off, we were both going to Nokia World, well only if we could get a visa in time. We quickly turned the car around and headed back to Cape Town for what later cameto be described as an amazing race to finish everything on time. By Thursday afternoon 13 October all Ingrids paper work was sorted and Ingrid's visa application submitted. We headed home to Plett and waited to hear from the embasy. Tuesday morning 18 October we were surprized when both passports arrived via courier, and we had both been granted a visa. We started packing for our flight wish wasschedule to depart 23 October.
On October 20th we received further good news, AppCRAFT was invited to take part in the Nokia World Hackathon. The idea being that we take my award winning Ideas Project idea and turn it into a fully working application during the 40 hour hackathon. I accepted the challenge and started planning how best to do this. Usualy a team of 3 takes part in the event and the last minute notification made it impossible to get other members of my team to London for the event. We live in the 21st centuary and technology is meant to be world class, as such I could not accept that we could not take part simply because we could not get visa's in time for a member of the team. I requested special permission to to host the first virtual team member via skype, this had apparently not been done before. After some negotiation we were given approval to do the first live skype feed to a Nokia World hackathon and as such Stephen Perelson from Port Elizabeth was able to join the team virtually via skype.
All packed and ready to go, we headed to London for Nokia World and the Hackathon that lay ahead.
The event was awesome and after 40 hours of blood, sweat, tears, interviews, video shoots, meet n greets oh and Pizza, Pepsi and alot of orange juice we had finished coding a fully working beta version of Nokia Preschool, a last minute rebrand and the application Preschool Aid was born. (Since it was impossible to implement a full preschool curriculum in only 40 hours, we decided that the 1st beta version would be a preschool aid. Future versions could eventually be a complete preschool curriculum on mobile.) The idea wasto build the framework and proof of concept, which I feelour team did very very well.
The 40 hour hackathon included more than just coding the app, amoung other things we also needed to draw up a presentaion to pitch to the judges. I put this together and with only seconds to spare finished the presentation. We pitched the judges, demo'd the app and a few hours later received the great news that AppCRAFT had take the award for "Best Series 40 App" at the Hackathon.
Preschool Aid Ver 1.0 beta has since been loaded to Nokia Store and I am happy to say is now live: http://store.ovi.com/content/215992
All in all a very succesful trip for team AppCRAFT.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank both the wives Ingrid Botes and Jess Pereslon for your awesome support during the crazy hackathon hours. Yes the hackathon was tough but well worth the effort. Also to Stephen Perelson for your kickass coding skills and willingness to take the bull by the horns when so may other coders refused. Thank you!
Pictures of our entire trip can be seen here.

SAN FRANCISO -- Enter Fan Man?
It turns out that James Hetfield, the lead singer of Metallica, is a Bay Area sports junkie. Giants, A's, Sharks, Warriors, 49ers, Raiders?
To him, they all rock.
"We have some really good teams here. You turn around and all of a sudden, hey, someone else is in the playoffs," said Hetfield, who lives in the Marin area. "It's great. Year-round torture."
Hetfield was on hand as part of Metallica Night, where the sounds of "Enter Sandman" and "One" and other heavy metal classics echoed around AT&T Park as the Giants faced the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Members of the band played the national anthem, threw out the first pitch and soaked in the sights and sounds of batting practice.
Hetfield grew up a fan of Los Angeles teams. The first sporting event he remembers attending in person was a Kings hockey game. But when Hetfield and other members of the band moved north in the early 1980s, so did their allegiances.
Now, he roots for Bay Area teams. Hetfield spoke fondly about attending Sharks games in the early years.
"(We) watched them at the Cow Palace and watched them grow,'' he said. "It was really cool. I always liked hockey. Any sports team is a little tough for me to follow all the time.
"I don't know who's doing what, who's traded and blah-blah-blah. We're pretty busy ourselves. But I love it, especially when Bay Area teams are doing well. I just love what it does to people."
Of course, when it comes to sports, Metallica is most closely linked to the New York Yankees. Mariano Rivera, their future Hall of Fame closer, uses "Enter Sandman" as his entrance music.
Rivera plans to retire at the end of this season.
"We have to retire, too,'' Hetfield joked. "That's in the contract."

Club donates pet oxygen masks to rescue agencies
Published: Friday, June 21, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, June 20, 2013 at 8:22 p.m.
Things have changed over the last 20 years when it comes to fire response. When firefighters answer a call, it's not always about humans trapped inside burning homes. It's also about their four-legged friends.
With that in mind, the Hendersonville Kennel Club donated 12 Pet Oxygen Recovery Masks to local fire departments.
"We talked about things we needed to do to connect to the community," club President Judith Smith said.
The new masks are upgrades to what most of the departments already have, Edneyville Fire and Rescue's Deputy Fire Chief Robert Griffin said.
"We only had one size," he said.
The new masks come in small, medium and large, depending on the size of the dog or cat that needs oxygen therapy.
Before the animal-friendly oxygen masks came along, firefighters would wave an oxygen tube in front of animals' noses, Fire Marshal Wally Hollis said. The advancement in that technology has come a long way.
"These are way more effective," he added.
The recovery masks retail at $79.95, but the club got a bulk discount. The masks were also donated to the Valley Hill, Gerton, Bat Cave, Green River, Hendersonville, Etowah, Mills River, Mountain Home and Dana fire departments, the Henderson County Sheriff's Office and the Henderson County Rescue Squad.
There's not much of a difference between people and dogs when it comes to smoke inhalation, Griffin said, adding, "It'll affect their bodies the same way."
Dogs will get the same type of treatment humans get with oxygen, and that warms the hearts of Kennel Club members. They're just glad that they've helped a cause that is near and dear to their hearts, Smith said.
"We're thrilled with a more to come," she added.
For more information on the club, visit facebook.com/hendersonvillekennelclubinc.

SAN FRANCISCO -- It's probably not the kind of earthshaking news if Brian Wilson had shaved off his beard, but Giants closer Sergio Romo did startle his teammates and manager Bruce Bochy a bit this weekend in Arizona when he showed up at the ballpark completely clean-shaven.
It was quick thinking by at least one photographer to get shots of Romo with a hairless face, because it was a brief metamorphosis. He's already growing back his beard and mustache, and as the Giants opened a series with the San Diego Padres Monday night, he already had a good growth working, as if nothing ever happened. Yet Romo is two-for-two on saves since the shave.
"It took about 10 years off him," said Bochy. "Maybe he got superstitious, I don't know. But it looked good. I told him, `I'd keep it shaved off.' "
Romo said there was no agenda to picking up a razor. And he's surprised folks have made such a big deal about it.
"To be honest, I didn't appreciate it that it got out," he said. "But really, I haven't even paid attention to it. I'm not doing anything. It's nothing. It's just facial hair."
Bochy was a bit sad to hear the Romo beard already was on the rebound.
"He's a lot prettier without it," said the manager.

A Rocket To The Moon always does Halloween in a big way (as you can tell in this shot of the "guys" from last year). While they have a day off on Halloween this year, they'll be in Indianapolis the night before with Never Shout Never on the Time Travel Tour.
If you're going to that show, make sure you wear your Halloween costume! The band will be trick-or-treating the line before doors open to find their favorite costumes and give out some prizes. Make sure you share some photos from the show so everyone can see!
The second installment of the Gym Class Heroes Tour Diary comes from Matt McGinley and features an ol' fashioned hair swap, some tired questions about Adam Levine and the joys of a coffee-like dessert beverage. Check it out HERE!
"In the summer of 2004, we quit our day jobs, dropped out of college, wrote and recorded the song "Cupid's Chokehold" and bought a 1975 Dodge Ram which we would tour in for some time. Touring wasn't glamorous -- it still isn't. But it's home, and this is a family. Since those early days our "accommodations" have become severely more comfortable, though still a grind. This is our home -- through which we travel from city to city. We spend most of our waking hours inside of it and it contains many of our worldly possessions.
Check out this sweet live shot of Cobra Starship. Check out more photos of the band from tour on CobraStarship.com

Andrew Cook of A Rocket To The Moon shares with NakedMag.net about the band that changed everything for him. Click HERE to read who it was!
"They were the band that opened the door for me to discover dozens of other bands that would define my existence as a high school kid. Bands like Pennywise, Millencolin, Strung Out, Propagandhi, Lagwagon, etc. Not to sound overly dramatic, but they didn't just open the door, they kicked it down with a pair of Doc Martens, and I shopped accordingly. "
Our good friend Adam T. Siska formerly of The Academy Is... has just joined Say Anything. The Fueled By Ramen staff are big fans of Say Anything and very excited to hear Adam play with them. Congratulations, Sisky!
"I couldn't be more excited to become a member of Say Anything. I have been a fan of the band since the release of the debut album, and got to know them well while on tour during the summer of 2008. When I spoke to Max about joining, there was no doubt in my mind that this is a band that I believe in and want to put my heart into. I look forward to seeing all of you at shows very soon!"

SAN FRANCISCO -- The first standing ovation on opening day at AT&T Park went to Batkid, the Make-A-Wish participant who captivated the nation for a day in November and threw out the first pitch Tuesday. The last one went to Tim Hudson, who signed three days after 5-year-old Miles Scott gave San Francisco a superhero.
In between, the day was once again all about the red-hot Giants bats.
Angel Pagan and Brandon Belt led the charge as the Giants beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-3 in their home opener. Pagan, the resurgent leadoff hitter, reached base three times, scored twice and is hitting .441 after eight games. Belt is tied for the major league lead with five homers after a two-run shot in the first inning that gave Hudson an early lead.
"It makes my job a lot easier if you have a lineup that continues to put pressure on the other pitcher, one through nine," Hudson said. "Eventually, they're going to break."
Trevor Cahill did in the third, giving up three runs on four hits to a Giants offense that leads all of baseball with 47 runs. Hudson never cracked, scattering seven hits and giving up two earned runs in eight innings. In his first two starts in orange and black, Hudson has given up just 10 hits and two earned runs in 152/3 innings, striking out 11. He is the first Giants pitcher to start the season with 152/3 innings without a walk since Atlee Hammaker went 21 straight at the start of the 1983 season.
"I guess guys are fighting to get to the bat rack to hit off of me," Hudson said, smiling. "They're ready to go. Right now, I'm pounding the strike zone with a lot of my pitches and it's forcing other teams to swing the bat."
It's also making life easier for the eight other guys on the field. Several players credited Hudson with helping them stay sharp defensively with a quick pace on the mound; the veteran needed just 101 pitches to get through his eight innings. Afterward, Hudson said he still doesn't feel 100 percent back from a July, 2013 ankle injury -- but he's close.
"It's just strength and stamina, and from a conditioning standpoint I'm not where I want to be yet," he said. "I got a late start (because of the offseason rehab). If this game were in the south where it's 100 degrees and humid, I wouldn't have gone eight innings, I'll tell you that."
The Giants hit like they were playing in a hot, humid park, and truth be told, AT&T Park played that way on a gorgeous 73-degree day. Still, Belt's bomb to right would have gone out just about anywhere. The first baseman became the first Giant since Jose Cruz Jr. in 2003 to homer five times in the first eight games.
"That's what you're hoping to see from these hitters: growth," manager Bruce Bochy said. "He certainly has grown into a smarter hitter and a more dangerous hitter."
Belt's not the only one threatening opposing pitchers at the moment. Pagan has six multi-hit games in the first eight. Michael Morse had two hits Tuesday and has driven in seven runs. Brandon Crawford added insurance runs with a two-run single in the fifth and is 3 for 7 this season against left-handers after hitting .199 against them last season.
"We're off to a good start," catcher Buster Posey said. "We feel like we're a group that can score a lot of different ways."
With Hudson on the mound, they might not have to.
The former A's ace said he is thrilled to be back in the Bay Area, and the sellout crowd Tuesday repeatedly showed its appreciation. Hudson got a rousing ovation as he warmed up in the bullpen and several half-standing ovations after quick innings.
When he struck out looking in the fifth and stayed to argue the call with home plate umpire Jim Reynolds, fans behind the plate joined the chorus. Pagan, in the on-deck circle, enjoyed the fire from a pitcher who was arguing the conclusion of an at-bat he took with a 7-2 lead.
"He's got that edge," Pagan said. "He's really, really competitive. I love that."
Hudson also is self-deprecating, a trait that makes him a perfect fit in a light clubhouse. When asked about the ovation he received as he walked off after the eighth inning, Hudson smiled.
"Honestly, I thought they were cheering for the mid-inning song," he said, a twinkle in his eye.
They do like Journey's "Lights" around here, but not nearly as much as they love strong pitching. On opening day, Giants fans saw that from start to finish.

I read a lot of history, and mine it for good stuff, but I also like to mix and match.

More often X in Westeros equals Y and Z in real life, with squidges of Q, L, and A.
In the case of Dorne, yes, Wales was definitely an influence, for all the reasons you cite. But there's also some distinctly unWelsh elements down there. South of the wall of mountains you have a hot, dry country more like Spain or Palestine than the cool green valleys of Wales, with most of the settlements along the seacoast and in few great river basins. And you also have the flavor given the culture by the great Rhoynar influx led by Nymeria. I suppose the closest real life equivilent to that would be the Moorish influence in parts of Spain. So you could say Dorne is Wales mixed with Spain and Palestine with some entirely imaginary influences mixed in. Or you could just say it's Dorne....

Storm Tips
Severe weather can strike quickly creating a variety of dangerous situations. We all have a responsibility to stay tuned to the National Weather Service, local media and emergency management for special warnings or instructions during severe weather events. The following tips are designed to help you safely endure the severe weather anytime it impacts the Duke Energy service area.
Before Severe Weather Strikes
- Have a portable radio, TV, or NOAA Weather Radio on hand to monitor official weather forecasts and other important information for your area.
- Families who have special medical needs or elderly members should closely monitor weather forecasts and make plans for potential alternate arrangements should an extended outage occur.
- Have a plan to move yourself and your family especially those with special needs to an alternate location in case you have to evacuate or experience an extended power outage.
- Keep a supply of water and non-perishable food items on hand.
- Ensure first aid supplies and all medicines are readily available.
- Make sure flashlights are readily available and working and that a supply of extra batteries is on hand.
- Consider the need for specialty items such as prescription medication, baby food, additional warm clothing and a safe heat source.
- Homeowners who depend on well water should draw an emergency water supply in case power to their electric water pumps is interrupted.
- If you have an emergency heating or power source, learn how to use it properly.
- Have at least one traditional analog phone in your home that does not require electricity to operate. Cordless phones and phones with built-in answering machines will not operate during a power outage.
During Severe Weather
- Continue to monitor the media for important information.
- If you experience a power outage, please alert us by calling Duke Energy's toll-free, automated outage reporting system at 800.POWERON (800.769.3766). Spanish speaking customers should call 866.4APAGON (866.427.2466) for outage reporting assistance. Those with access to the Internet may report an outage using our online report form.
- If you anticipate an extended outage, consider moving yourself and your family especially those with special needs to an alternate location.
- Consider checking on others who may benefit from your assistance.
- Consider all downed power lines and anything touching them energized and DANGEROUS! Do not get near them and report the problem to Duke Energy.
- Don't open freezers and refrigerators any more than absolutely necessary. Opening these appliances will allow food to thaw more quickly.
- During severe weather or power outages, turn off as many appliances and electronics as possible. This will reduce the potential for damage or fire. After the power is restored, wait 5 to 10 minutes before turning them back on.
After Severe Weather
- Replenish your supplies of batteries, bottled water and non- perishable food items in preparation for future storms.
- Have a licensed electrician disconnect your generator unless the generator has an automatic disconnection device.
Safety Around Power Lines
- Stay away from downed or sagging power lines, and do not touch anything that is on or near a power line (i.e., trees or tree limbs, cars, ladders).
- Keep children and family pets away from areas where lines may have fallen (backyards, fields, school yards, etc.).
- If a power line falls across a car that you're in, stay in the car. If you MUST get out of the car due to a fire or other immediate life-threatening situation, do your best to jump clear of the car and land on both feet. Be sure that no part of your body is touching the car when your feet touch the ground.
- Report all power line hazards to Duke Energy or your local emergency services department or agency.

- Mac hardware today differs from PCs solely in the CPU, system logic and the motherboard they sit on.
- Knowing algorithms, which is really the underlying piece of any logic in a computer program, is an extremely important skill for programmers.

- Thus various detailed investigations by philosophers and logicians of such topics as explanation, confirmation, probability, and so on, may be reasonably taken to provide some of the ingredients for a general account of coherence.
- Philosophers and logicians distinguish three types of reasoning which are useful for solving different kinds of problems: deductive, inductive, and dialectical reasoning.
Late Middle English: via Old French logique and late Latin logica from Greek logikē (tekhnē) '(art) of reason', from logos 'word, reason'.
Logic came via Old French from late Latin, and from Greek logikē (tekhnē) '(art) of reason'; the base is Greek logos 'word, reason', found also in prologue (Middle English) 'words said before'. Logo, a 1930s shortening of logogram, 'a sign representing a word or phrase, shorthand', or of the printing term logotype, 'a single piece of type that prints a word, phrase, or symbol' (both E19th) also goes back to logos.

White Castle residents will have to wait a bit longer for the ferry between White Castle and Carville.
Propeller shaft repairs had been expected to wind up late this month, but the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development says delays in getting a drydock at the shipyard mean the ferry won't be back at work until mid-January.
People can learn if it's back by calling 1-888-613-3779 or by clicking on the "Ferry Status" page on the right-hand side of the transportation department's website.
Propeller shaft repairs and other problems kept the ferry out of service from June until October 10.
Without the ferry, drivers must go 22 miles to the Plaquemine ferry or 42 miles to the Sunshine Bridge.

While the name may sound a little intimidating, it's "scarier than the illness itself," said Amy Wineland, assistant director of Summit County Public Health. "Knowing the facts about hand, foot and mouth disease definitely will lower parent anxiety when it comes to caring for their child."
Hand, foot and mouth is a common viral illness that usually occurs in children 5 and under, and tends to pop up locally during summer and fall, Wineland said. Symptoms include fever, sores in the mouth - which may cause a child to refuse food and drink - and rashes on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet, and even the buttocks area.
"It begins as small red bumps and can become bumps with blisters, but it doesn't itch," Wineland said. "The rash isn't usually painful, but the sores in the mouth can be."
The virus is spread through direct or indirect contact with nose and throat secretions, and when an infected person touches surfaces then touched by others.
"It makes sense that we usually find cases in day cares and child cares and preschools, and any place where lots of children are congregating," Wineland said.
Local Paul Molnar's 2-year-old son came down with the illness from his day care a little over a week ago. And though it's most common in children, Molnar later came down with a case of it himself.
"I'm just shocked at how few people have heard of it," he said. "For some, it's common knowledge."
The virus' incubation period is three to five days, and the illness itself usually lasts seven to 10. Symptoms may vary, with some people not exhibiting any at all, but still spreading the disease. The virus can be present in fecal matter for weeks, Wineland said.
"So it's a really challenging thing to control in a day care center," she said. "We would recommend excluding children from child care if they have open sores and they're drooling because they're more likely to spread the illness."
The virus is sometimes confused with foot-and-mouth disease, an illness of cattle, sheep and other barnyard animals, "but it's unrelated," Wineland said.
Because the rash and sore mouth may be confused with other illnesses - like strep throat, chicken pox or measles - it's important to visit a primary care doctor. Going to a doctor can also help prevent rare complications like meningitis.
Since it's a virus, antibiotics are not effective. But, acetaminophen and ibuprofen can be given for fever and achiness; aspirin should not be given to children.
"It's a mild illness, and it's nothing to be too concerned about," Wineland said.

#1 Louisville
#12 Oregon
Bench Depth
After all the hoopla and hype, the NCAA Tournament Championship Game has arrived, and both North Carolina and Villanova are very good, deserving teams.
North Carolina-Syracuse is an interesting matchup for the Final Four.
Most of the country predicted the Kansas Jayhawks to be here, but the Villanova Wildcats knocked off the top team in the country in last Saturday's Elite 8 contest.

As SELF's Entertainment Director, I have strong opinions about television. This season has some really strong new shows, with brain-twisting premises, ass-kicking chicks, and incredible settings and costumes. Favorite returning faces Sarah Michelle Gellar, Jason O?Mara, Christina Ricci, Rachel Bilson, Patrick Wilson and Anthony Stewart Head are better than ever. And behind the scenes, Spielberg, Schwartz, Williamson and Cummings bring sharp dialogue, big ideas, and decadently soapy romance.
So get ready to program your Tivo and enjoy!

The Top 10 MarketBeat Posts of 2012
From Facebook flubbed IPO, to Apple roller coaster stock ride and Bill Gross's "death of equities" proclamation, 2012 has been a year filled with old-fashioned Wall Street shenanigans and conspiracy theories.
A quick check at MarketBeat's top traffic-grabbers of the year — which we're now making an annual tradition – offers a look at our take on some of the biggest market stories in 2012.
Here's a countdown of this blog's top 10 posts of the year, judged by page views:
10. Apple Shares Down 10%; It's a Correction: "All right, kids, the impossible has happened. No, no, Ashton Kutcher still hasn't made a good movie. We're talking about the other impossible: Apple shares are down 10% from their recent high."
We published this one on April 20, which turned out to be the first of two major corrections for Apple shares this year. Despite the roller coaster ride, the stock is still up more than 25%. Not too shabby, although it's a far cry from being up more than 70% at the year's peak.
9. Jack Welch Calls Conspiracy; Economists Fight Back: "Not everyone is cheering the big drop in the unemployment rate. One former bigwig is even calling it a conspiracy. Jack Welch, former CEO at General Electric, took to Twitter this morning to voice his displeasure with the jobs report. He called it "unbelievable" and seemed to blame the Obama administration for a fudging of the figures."
Unbelievable jobs numbers..these Chicago guys will do anything..can't debate so change numbers
— Jack Welch (@jack_welch) October 5, 2012
Those Chicago guys! Welch's takedown of the September jobs report offered some comic relief at that moment. Subsequent jobs reports have shown that the unemployment rate's sudden drop toward the end of the year doesn't appear to be a mirage.
8. Apple Falls to Earth, Share Swoon Hits Fifth Day: "Even Apple couldn't go straight up forever. The stock is down for a fifth straight day, sending traders and analysts scrambling to find reasons behind the move. Some cited rumors that the company was preparing to launch a cheaper iPad; others went to their charts to highlight "technical" reasons for the decline. Yet many simply say Apple was due for a fall."
Yes, another Apple post. But this post laid the groundwork for a Page One piece in the next day's paper.
7. Even After Jobless Claims, Jobs Picture Isn't Pretty: "To help you sift through the morass, we'd like to create another in a string of anecdotal indicators that don't really mean anything but are fun to play around with anyway, like the Super Bowl indicator, the hemline index, and the underwear index. We've come up with this: the my-doctor-says-people-can't-find-jobs index."
Jobs figures tend do spark a spirited debate in the blogosphere, and this post was certainly no different. Sure, the labor market is improving and the trend is moving in the right direction. But the pace of improvement over the last few years remains far too slow to get anyone overly excited.
6. Goldman Sachs' Blankfein on Banking: 'Doing God's Work': "The Times of London's mammoth 6,900-word piece on Goldman Sachs over the weekend contains plenty of fodder for those that see the investment bank as Wall Street's top dog, as well as those that see it as a creepy, conspiratorial vampire squid of finance. But the key quote that's getting attention comes in Goldman Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein's exchange with a reporter after a question on whether there should be limits to compensation."
First off, the current MarketBeat regime can't take any credit for this one. This is a post from our pal Matt Phillips that was written in 2009 and regained traction earlier this year when the NY Times offered some link love in Greg Smith's famed op-ed: "Why I am Leaving Goldman Sachs."
Hey, we're not complaining!
5. Jack Welch: 'I Wasn't Kidding': "After setting off a minor social media firestorm with a tweet suggesting the Obama administration had manipulated the September jobs report, Jack Welch wants to get one thing straight: He meant it. "I wasn't kidding," the pugnacious former CEO of General Electric said in an interview."
We've already detailed the firestorm Welch set off in the Twitterverse a few months back about the labor market. But this post provided an exclamation point on a wild day: in an interview, Welch didn't back down from his controversial tweet.
4. Apple, Google Shares Getting Hammered: "No, your screens weren't wrong on Friday. And they're not wrong today either. Apple and Google shares are both getting torched this morning amid an otherwise upbeat day in the broad market."
This was another post from April, illustrating the big slide tech stocks suffered during the spring before bouncing back during the summer months.
3. Facebook IPO: Should You Invest In It?: "We're eagerly awaiting Facebook's IPO papers, which are expected sometime this week. Everyone wants to know exactly how profitable the social network is, how fast revenues are growing and what the company's valuation will be. All this begs the question: should the general, mom-and-pop investor consider investing in Facebook when it eventually begins trading?"
Boy, this was a telling post. One of the most hyped IPOs of all time turned out to be a total dud. But who knew ahead of time? This post laid out some of the major risk factors that turned out to play a much more detrimental role in the stock's performance than many originally anticipated.
2. Bill Gross: We're Witnessing the Death of Equities: "The bond king says stocks are dead. Bill Gross, Pimco's co-founder and co-chief investment officer, says stock investors should think again about the age-old "buy-and-hold" investing mantra. He says consistent, annual returns are a thing of the past. "The cult of equity is dying," Bill Gross wrote in his August Investment Outlook.
Gross's big call over the summer was a big traffic earner for MarketBeat. His proclamation also came in a year in which the S&P 500 is up 13% on a year-to-date basis. While Gross is thinking on a much larger time horizon, one can't help but wonder if his call will go down in the history books as an ultimate contrarian indicator, similar to BusinessWeek's "Death of Equities" call in 1979.
For the No. 1 spot as top traffic grabber for 2012, drum roll please…
1. Facebook Shares Tumble to Fresh IPO Lows: "While stocks are jumping out of the gate this morning, Facebook has stumbled again. Facebook shares are down more than 5% this morning, hitting new lows in the social network's short history as a publicly traded company. More than an hour into trading, shares are at $30.17. The stock has lost about 21% of its value since going public on May 18 at $38 apiece. Today's drop comes on the first day of Facebook's options activity."
This post was written 11 days after Facebook went public. The crazy thing is the stock would drop another 40% from these levels before bottoming in early September. The stock has rebounded a bit in the fourth quarter, but it still remains a far cry from the $38 IPO price.

In many Mississippi counties, including Lauderdale, several races will be decided in the primaries Tuesday. So Aug. 2 could be even busier than the Nov. 8 general election.
It's all up to party officials and volunteers to make sure everything is ready for voters from the poll boxes to the paperwork. The hours before election day are always full of last minute details.
"We are packing the boxes that will go out to each of the polling places for Republicans," said David Stevens, Lauderdale County GOP chairman. "Trying to make sure we have poll workers. Someone always gets sick or falls down, so we are just making sure those gaps are filled so we will be able to take care of the voters when they show up at the polls."
For Democratic officials, also working down to the wire at the courthouse, it's much the same. There's a lot of work that has to get done in the hours prior to the first vote being cast.
"Before things go out to the precinct, they will come in and basically do a double check and then go out to the polls," said Walter Patton, Democratic Party volunteer.
"We are hoping we have good turnout," said Stevens. "There are a lot good Republican contested races. There is a lot of competition in the statewide and local races, so we are hoping we have a good turnout."
And while both parties are optimistic the day will run smoothly, they are certain about one thing.
"I think we will have a lot of surprises tomorrow, but I think everything will go smoothly," Patton said.
The Mississippi Secretary of State's Office is in charge of elections statewide. It issued several tips to remember as you get ready to vote. First, look to vote in off-peak times, if you can; early in the morning and late afternoon are the busiest times. Watch what you wear. You may not wear clothing supporting your candidate of choice within 150 feet of a polling location. Finally, be patient, especially if you go early or late. The lines could be long at times.

All rescued after supply boat sinks
Published: Friday, June 14, 2013 at 10:22 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, June 14, 2013 at 10:22 p.m.
A Galliano-based offshore supply boat struck an oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico Friday morning and sank, but its four crew members and 19 passengers were safely transferred to a nearby boat, the Coast Guard said.
"There were no injures. Everyone was rescued," Coast Guard spokesman Carlos Vega said.
Shortly after 9:15 a.m., B&J Martin Inc.'s boat the Celeste Ann hit the platform about 15 miles west of Southwest Pass near the mouth of the Mississippi River in Plaquemines Parish, Vega said.
There was no initial indication why the accident happened, he said. The Coast Guard and other agencies are investigating it.
Vega said the Coast Guard checked out the wreck but didn't do any search and rescue.
It later flew over the site to check out a gasoline sheen that measured a half mile by 150 feet. The company used boom to contain spill from the vessel.
Nobody was injured on the platform, which also didn't receive much damage, Vega said.
B&J Martin plans to hire a company to recover its vessel, Vega said.
Company spokesman Jimmie Martin told The Associated Press all passengers aboard the vessel were offshore workers.
Martin declined to identify the operator of the platform. He couldn't be reached for comment Friday night.
If the boat isn't recovered and remains at the bottom of the Gulf, Vega said, it would have to be reported as a waterway hazard because of the fuel it contains.
B&J Martin has owned and operated supply, utility and fishing vessels in the Gulf for more than 30 years.

Shades is a FREE utility for controlling the brightness of your screen. It runs in the background providing always-available fine-grained control over the brightness of your display via a slick Mac-like interface.
Required OS: 10.5
Tags: brightness , menu , control , utility
9 Opinions
Has some edges and glitches; does not work very well with apps like F.lux and Nocturne, flickers. I have an external monitor and prefer to adjust the brightness manually.
I love this app! Its a must have app for my iMac 24". I cant live without it anymore!!!
Is there a way to control the brightness of several screens simultaneously using Shades?
this is a must have!!! the 24" iMac is way too bright and will not dim enough down. Thank god for this application! I no longer have splitting headaches. Works great!
A few users are experiencing an issue with Shades 1.5 crashing when they upgrade.
The fix appears to be to delete your preferences file. You'll find it in your users folder under library/preferences/com.charcoaldesign.shades.plist
Sorry for any inconvenience.
I love this! Even more after I found the background version. Best brightness controller out there. Now my girlfriend can sleep while I stay up...
There is a background-only version (no dock icon) available for download on the web site:
Ew, not a dock app!
Works perfectly, but would be better if it didn't keep the icon in the dock when running.

'The Voice' Season 5: Who Was Voted Off?
It was America's turn to vote on "The Voice" and there were certainly some eye openers on Thursday's results show.
After two nights of performances earlier in the week, many of the strongest artists made it through a special third episode Thursday. But a couple found themselves packing their bags.
Tessanne Chin, Matthew Schuler, Caroline Pennell and James Wolpert all made the cut. Shelbie Z and Preston Pohl didn't.
Each team ended up with three artists each: America voted through their top two and each coach rescued a third.
The hardest choice had to be Adam's. America predictably picked Tessanne Chin and iTunes topper James Wolpert from his team. Then Adam had to pick between Preston Pohl and Will Champlin (also Grey, but she was a weaker contender). Before picking Will – clearly a favorite of Adam's from the start – he warned the audience his choice would be a surprise.
Among other surprises, Team Blake's country singer Shelbie Z went home after America voted through Cole Vosbury and Austin Jenckes and then Blake picked blues singer Ray Boudreaux. You've got to think the unfortunate slot Shelbie Z got opening Monday's show impacted her votes. But then Blake didn't step forward to save her, despite his high praise earlier in the week.
On Team CeeLo, America predictably voted for Caroline Pennell and Jonny Gray. But then CeeLo picked Kat Robichaud over Tamara Chauniece.
On Team Christina, America went for Jacquie Lee and Matthew Schuler. Then Christina picked Josh Logan over Stephanie Anne Johnson and Olivia Henken.
Filling the gaps between the eliminations, each team performed as a group. The group performances are never that great and these were indeed rough around the edges. Perhaps it was the lack of rehearsal time or issues with sound.
Here are the results from Thursday's show:
Team Blake
America voted through: Austin Jenckes and Cole Vosbury
Coach picked: Ray Boudreaux
Going home: Shelbie Z and Nic Hawk
Team CeeLo
America voted through: Caroline Pennell and Jonny Gray
Coach picked: Kat Robichaud
Going home: Tamara Chauniece and Amber Nicole
Team Christina
America voted through: Jacquie Lee and Matthew Schuler
Coach picked: Josh Logan
Going home: Stephanie Anne Johnson and Olivia Henken
Team Adam
America voted through: James Wolpert and Tessanne Chin
Coach picked: Will Champlin
Going home: Preston Pohl and Grey

Definition of blind spot in English:
blind spot
1 Anatomy The point of entry of the optic nerve on the retina, insensitive to light.
Example sentences
- Intriguingly, within the part of the cortical map that represents the region of visual field that can be seen by only one eye, nerve cells receive input from the region of retina immediately surrounding the blind spot.
- This hole in the retina creates a blind spot in the eye, a flaw that again would be avoidable with a priori design.
- Our retinal blind spots rarely cause any difficulty, but rarely is not the same as never.
2An area where a person's view is obstructed: the rear-view mirror eliminates blind spots on both sides of the car
More example sentences

- Radar systems, sensors or cameras on both sides of a vehicle (they are here already: I drove a Toyota Corolla Verso a couple of weeks ago with them) can eliminate blind spots.
- Trucks were also fitted with CCTV cameras, which allowed the driver to see the back of the vehicle and eliminated any blind spots.
2.1An area in which a person lacks understanding or impartiality: Ed had a blind spot where these ethical issues were concerned
More example sentences
- This blind spot, this stunning lack of historical perspective, robs much of the American Left of intellectual credibility.
- While on the topic of the blind spot represented by African issues in New World news media (American and Trinidadian both), my roommate Lauren has a great post on the problem.
- Coaches can give crash courses to inexperienced executives or impart new skills to accomplished managers with blind spots in some areas, like a slowness in making decisions or a clumsy speaking style.
3 Telecommunications A point within the normal range of a transmitter where there is unusually weak reception.
Example sentences
- He finally told his phone company to deactivate his roaming service - but not everyone does that, because it means they are then unable to make or receive phone calls in coverage blind spots.
- With blanket coverage, users can easily move within the zone without losing their network connection, in-building blind spots excepted, of course.
- Its claims to 'panoptic' range notwithstanding, it has its blind spots.
