NEW ORLEANS -- There will be no Eddie DeBartolo in the Pro Football Hall of Fame this summer. No Charles Haley or Tim Brown, either.
All three Bay Area notables felt short of enshrinement Saturday when the voting committee announced its Class of 2013.
Instead, Northern California will be represented at the Aug. 3 ceremony by offensive lineman Larry Allen, who played his final two seasons with the 49ers, and defensive tackle Warren Sapp, who finished his career with four seasons in Oakland.
"My feet haven't touched the ground in 30 minutes," Sapp said after the announcement.
Also selected from the list of modern-era finalists were receiver Cris Carter, offensive lineman Jonathan Ogden and coach Bill Parcells. Both senior nominees, defensive tackle Curley Culp and linebacker Dave Robinson, are headed for Canton, Ohio, as well.
The vote means at least one more year of disappointment for DeBartolo, who owned the 49ers from 1977-2000, a span that included five Super Bowl championships. DeBartolo and Brown were among the first of the 15 finalists eliminated, failing to make the cut when the field was whittled to 10.
Steve Young, the Hall of Fame quarterback, said he was not surprised that DeBartolo missed out again but remains optimistic.
"I think there was a lot of momentum built this year," Young said during a red-carpet event Saturday in New Orleans, the site of Sunday's Super Bowl XLVII between the 49ers and Baltimore Ravens.
"I got a sense from voters that a lot of people reached out to them and tried to let them know the difference he made, not just for the 49ers but for the effect he had on the league regarding owner/player relationships. He changed them forever."
DeBartolo's legal trouble complicates his candidacy. In the late 1990s, he pleaded guilty in federal court for failing to report a bribe request and was suspended by the NFL for a year. He gave up control of the 49ers in 2000.
"I really don't understand it, because he certainly deserves it," former 49ers wide receiver Dwight Clark said. "He was the best owner in the league all those years he owned the team. I think he definitely is gaining momentum, so it just sort of felt like Parcells took Eddie's spot this time and maybe next time it'll be Eddie's turn."
Allen, the massive and nimble offensive lineman, played his first 12 seasons in the NFL with the Dallas Cowboys before spending his final two seasons (2006-07) with the 49ers.
Famously tough and powerful -- he could bench press 700 pounds during his playing days -- Allen had a surprising reaction to hearing the Hall of Fame news: "I broke down and started crying," he said.
Allen made 11 Pro Bowls during his career, including his first season in San Francisco.
At 6-foot-3 and 325 pounds, Allen was one of the NFL's biggest road blocks. Earlier this week, 49ers linebacker Patrick Willis recalled how Allen provided him his welcome-to-the-NFL moment as a rookie in 2007.
"I'll never forget my first practice," Willis said. "Frank Gore ran the sweep, and Larry Allen was coming off the block, and I thought I could just make a move on him and go around him. That didn't happen. I felt like Larry Allen pushed me from one side of the field to the next."
Drafted in the second round out of Division II Sonoma State in 1994, Allen helped running back Emmitt Smith set a team record with 1,773 yards in 1995. Smith recalled on Fox Sports Radio last week that defensive ends sometimes caught the "Allen Flu."
"That means, 'I'm not getting in front of Larry Allen this week. I'm going to sit out this week,' " Smith said.
Sapp spent 13 seasons in the NFL, including from 2004-07 with the Raiders. He had 191/2 sacks while in Oakland and finished with 961/2 -- second all-time among interior lineman behind John Randle.
Because the announcement was in alphabetical order, Sapp was the last to hear his name.
"They always save the best for last, but they could have done me better than that," he said, laughing. "That was scary."
Sapp had 10 sacks for the Raiders in 2006. He is better remembered for his days in Tampa Bay, which drafted him with the 12th overall pick in 1995.
As with DeBartolo, there was buzz that Haley had an outside shot at enshrinement this year. Haley spent 12 seasons in the NFL, including two stints with the 49ers. He is the only player to win five Super Bowl titles.
Haley collected his first two rings with the 49ers (XXIII and XXXIV) before winning three more during his first four seasons with the Cowboys.
"I just can't believe we traded him to Dallas," former 49ers teammate Jerry Rice recalled last week. "I'm like, 'Why would you trade him to Dallas?' "
Sports Illustrated writer Jim Trotter, one of the writers on the committee, said on stage that he was among those who voted for DeBartolo. But, he said, it was an incredibly competitive field. Another voter, Rick Gosselin of the Dallas Morning News, said most of the candidates merited at least a 20-minute discussion, with the Parcells discussion requiring an hour.
Young hopes DeBartolo continues to stay in the conversation.
"I think that momentum's getting started," he said. "So I suspect now that it's just a matter of time."

Reality Narrative Death Point
All four books are well worth reading, thinking about, arguing with. I especially hope that in the wake of Paul Di Filippo's review of Who Fears Death in the B&N Review that the column will offer an alternative way of evaluating the novel. For the way Di Filippo read the book, I think his assessment is valid, but he read it in the most narrow and silly way possible, the way someone who's only ever read science fiction would read. And I know he hasn't only read science fiction, so I'm perplexed at the assumptions he applies. I agree with his desire for fewer savior of the world/universe/everything characters, and in fact once wrote another SH column about it, but I think there's abundant evidence in the text that Okorafor is a smart writer who is as aware of this paradigm as anybody else, and is both using and critiquing it in complex, multi-layered ways, just as she is simultaneously using and critiquing other tropes, tendencies, templates -- not all of them from SF -- throughout the novel.

Matt -- Interesting column, particularly as I am reading Vanishing Point myself at the moment (Reality Hunger is next up).ReplyDelete
I listened to Shields on Colin Marshall's The Marketplace of Ideas podcast and I was struck by the fact that his desire appears to be to co-opt the subject matter of traditional philosophy but to use instead this toolbox of cross-medium methods that he has picked up.
So you're quite right that he should piss off and read philosophy but I think he would have an answer for you :-)
RH and VP make a great couple, so I'll be curious what you think of them, Jonathan. I didn't take Shields to task for not being up with his philosophy, I don't think -- I did that to some of the essays in the Narrative Power anthology. Some of that book is really interesting, thorough, and provocative, but then there are essays where the writers just make astoundingly banal and ordinary observations about narrative and would have done well to read even just a little little little bit of narrative theory before jumping in to make theoretical claims about whatever they perceive to be narrative.ReplyDelete
The only real problem I had with Shields was that I thought he was setting up a false dichotomy to strengthen the manifesto qualities of the book. But the form of the book didn't make that, for me at least, hugely annoying, because Shields's own voice is subsumed within the whole. In some ways, I think it shows he's a better editor than he is a writer!
Are you aware of Christian Salmon's book about storytelling? Translated from the French I reviewed it a little while back and it drove me nuts because of its refusal to a) engage with any body of thought about storytelling and/or narrative or b) to make any proper theoretical distinctions himself.ReplyDelete
I think we can all agree that narrative is there to be deconstructed or at least engaged with on a theoretical level, but that's been true since Ballard put out Atrocity Exhibition (a book which, I think, does pretty much exactly what Shields seems to be asking for but from within a fictional context).
I'm looking forward to Reality Hunger actually and do plan to write about it.
Great SH review: I don't think I would have understood Gilman's contribution to Narrative Power without having read a little Hayden White.ReplyDelete
Gotta love David Shields's reference to "Samuel Pelang's The Motion of Light in Water." At least this reviewer loved it.
I think that reviewer may have been working from the galleys rather than the finished book -- my copy of the hardcover (which I'm assuming is a first printing, unless it sold way better in the first month than the publisher thought it did) on page 64, paragraph number 189, has Chip's name right.ReplyDelete
I've only got a passing knowledge of Hayden White, but my assumption of where Gilman was coming from was from frustration at some tendencies within museum studies (ones I'll admit I have more sympathy with than her position, since I'm an inveterate postmodernist in my inclinations, though of course, being an inveterate postmodernist, I would shy away from trying to define "postmodernism"). What she has to say about frontier history is moderately interesting, but her attempt to extend that to a general theory of narrative was, for me, supremely unconvincing.

Publication Acceptance Date: October 28, 2012
Publication Date: March 18, 2013
Citation: Takeda, F., Glenn, D.M., Tworkoski, T. 2013. Rotating cross-arm trellis technology for blackberry production. Journal of Berry Research. 3(1):25-40. Interpretive Summary: As demand for blackberries continues to increase, new production systems are needed to maintain the competitiveness of US blackberry industry to expand production areas, and extend production season. Several lines of research at the Appalachian Fruit Research Station in Kearneysville, WV, have made a significant positive impact to the blackberry industry as the new technology has been successfully transferred to private-sector partners. The commercial Rotating Cross-Arm (RCA) trellis in combination with the USDA-ARS cane training system has gained a wide industry and commercial adoption as it is being used in more than 25 states and has helped to increase blackberry acreage by approximately 200 acres in the Midwest and Northeast in the last two years. The RCA trellis and cane training system has been used in propagation of blackberry plants that offer opportunities for growers to produce blackberries out-of-season.
Technical Abstract: Developed over the last two decades, the Rotating Cross-Arm (RCA) trellis and cane training system is beginning to make an impact on the blackberry (Genus Rubus, subgenus Rubus) industry in the United States (US), as it has been successfully transferred to growers in more than 30 states in the last two years and has helped to increase blackberry acreage in the eastern US by about approximately 100 ha. Our research and development effort on the RCA technology has shown that 1) winter injury can be reduced by modifying the crop environment and production techniques, 2) white drupe formation can be reduced by positioning fruit away from direct sunlight, and 3) with the fruit positioned on one side of the row, harvest efficiency is improved. Our research has also shown that RCA technology can be used to generate several times more long-cane plants than traditional propagation methods.

With more than 700 biosimilars/biobetters in the development pipeline, there will be many more biopharmaceutical manufacturers and products, perhaps as many as a dozen or more for each emulated reference product. This pipeline will mean a lot more new biopharmaceutical industry players, ranging from virtual and foreign to the largest Big Pharma companies, with many new manufacturers and facilities. These competitors are expected to compete on the basis of price; therefore, low manufacturing costs will be required. This low-cost requirement is driving many companies to seek out and adopt bioprocessing innovations that achieve the most cost-effective manufacturing.Some of the biopharmaceutical trends coming in 2013 support a future vision that includes:

Keeping up with John Nielsen-Gammon could make for a good TV reality show – just make sure you have a 25-hour clock and a handful of Rand McNally maps to chart his many travels.
The Texas A&M University atmospheric sciences professor has, in addition to his teaching and research duties, served as the Texas State Climatologist since 2000. Until recently, most people in the state had never heard of the office, let alone knew what the state climatologist was doing. Fast forward to late 2010, when the state began to get really dry, and then on to 2011, when Texas was officially in its worst one-year drought in the state's history and rain was something only seen in a science book.
Lakes dried up, streams went silent, ranchers were forced to sell off much of their herds and an estimated 300 million trees died in the state due to lack of water. All heads turned to Nielsen-Gammon, and a collective question of "what the heck is going on here" was asked of him on a daily basis.
Suddenly, the Texas A&M professor was everywhere – speaking at a cattlemen's association meeting in Amarillo, a fire-weather workshop in Corpus Christi, a river planning meeting in Wichita Falls, a landowner's meeting in Lufkin, along with interviews with national and international media outlets, and of course The Weather Channel. A news tracking service reveals that he is approached 1,000 media mentions during the past year alone.
The Texas drought may have abated some – at least for the time being – but Nielsen-Gammon's daily schedule would still rival a head of state. A typical day in his life: testifying in Austin before the state legislature about the current Texas drought and prospects for rain in the next few months, then heading back to Aggieland to teach a laboratory class, then hopping on a plane to Florida a few hours later to brief livestock owners nationwide on the long-range forecast.
"It's all part of the job, but things do get hectic sometimes," Nielsen-Gammon says from his office, which not surprisingly, is usually covered with charts and graphs and stacks of data about Texas weather.
"When I became state climatologist years ago, I might give 3-4 interviews the entire year. Now, sometimes I give that many every week. The last few years have been a historic time for the state because of the drought, and it has affected millions of people, most of them not in a good way. It's my job to let them know what's going on and what they can expect."
Texas A&M officials have formally submitted proposals asking that the state fully fund the State Climatologist office, which currently is internally supported by the university at about $50,000 per year. The additional funding would serve as seed money for research and provide for a consistently high level of climate services to all agencies, companies, groups and individuals.
Texas A&M graduate students Brent McRoberts, David Coates, Matt Raper and undergraduate Andrew Cook help Nielsen-Gammon part-time with reports and forecasts.
All but two states – Tennessee and Rhode Island – have a state climatologist office. The Office of the State Climatologist serves as the clearinghouse for climate information for the state of Texas. The OSC issues regular climate updates and conducts research on climate monitoring and climate prediction in Texas and the southern United States.
The two largest ongoing research projects in the OSC are funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, but they have particular relevance to Texas. One is devoted to accurately measuring drought severity on a community-by-community basis, while the other is a collaboration with Texas A&M AgriLife faculty to provide forecasts of future drought conditions and their impacts on crops.
"Because so many people in Texas make their living in agriculture and ranching, there is a tremendous amount of interest in the weather and weather patterns," Nielsen-Gammon explains. "The last few years have been really hard on farmers and ranchers. We try to give them the best information possible so they can make hard decisions that affect their lives and businesses."
Along those lines, he agreed a few years ago to write a monthly blog for the Houston Chronicle titled "Climate Abyss" that discusses Texas weather, and it invites reader exchanges that can be lively, to say the least. He was featured in an article in Texas Monthly magazine last summer about his role as the state's chief climate person, and in 2012 he was named winner of Texas A&M's Newsmaker Award that is presented annually to a faculty member who has made a positive impact on the school with his or her efforts in working with the media.
"I have to admit that now, I am much more aware of what a deadline means to the media. If I'm not giving them the information they need, they're not passing it along to everyone else," he says of his news exposure.
"Also, I have learned about sound bites, and how to keep things not too technical, and especially how to answer in short sentences. Interviews are part of this job, and if they can help people, I will gladly do them."

Upon review of the complaints by Vickie Rangel and Mack Jimmie that election rules were not followed during the June 14th Election, Tribal Council has overturned the results.
The Tribal Election Commission will set a date for a new election to be held within sixty days.
It was Phyllis Anderson and Kevin Edwards who forced the tie-breaking vote that I cast on this issue. Vickie Rangel and Mack Jimmie requested that the Tribal Council members who were candidates for Chief in the June 14th election not vote on the matter because they were directly involved. Phyllis and Kevin refused. If they had, the vote would have been 8-6 in favor of overturning the election. The minutes of the July 8th Tribal Council meeting show this.
I will continue to serve as Miko during this time and all Tribal government and business operations will continue as usual. My top priority will continue to be putting Chahta First and the protection of our sovereignty. Both of these things are still under attack and we will have to fight together to protect them.
Over the last week, we have gotten a glimpse of what life might be like with Phyliss Anderson and the Governor's Jackson consultants and lawyers running our Tribe. It was not a pretty sight. Chahta First was never a popular concept off the Reservation and when they thought they had defeated us, all of Jackson was celebrating.
I will not let Chahta First die. I will not let our sovereignty be chipped away to satisfy outside politicians and the coast casinos. My opponent has sold her soul and her principles to those people to put herself and her family in power. We saw that her message of unity was just a joke. Phyllis Anderson and her backers in Jackson must be stopped. They came out of hiding the day after the election and we have seen their faces. We are going to remove their influence from our democratic process and get them off our Reservation and out of our politics for good.
Thank you for everything you have done up until now. I was hopeful we would have been back to the business of making progress for our Tribe by now but, unfortunately, we still have to fight. I hope you will continue to stand with me. The soul of our Tribe, our right to manage our own affairs and our way of life depend on the outcome. Yakoki!

How-To Geek
Add Your Gmail Account to Outlook 2010 Using IMAP
If you're upgrading from Outlook 2003 to 2010, you might want to use IMAP with your Gmail account to synchronize mail across multiple machines. Using our guide, you will be able to start using it in no time.
Enable IMAP in Gmail
First log into your Gmail account and open the Settings panel. Click on the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab and verify IMAP is enabled and save changes.
Next open Outlook 2010, click on the File tab to access the Backstage view. Click on Account Settings and Add and remove accounts or change existing connection settings.
In the Account Settings window click on the New button.
Enter in your name, email address, and password twice then click Next.
Outlook will configure the email server settings, the amount of time it takes will vary.
Provided everything goes correctly, the configuration will be successful and you can begin using your account.
Manually Configure IMAP Settings
If the above instructions don't work, then we'll need to manually configure the settings. Again, go into Auto Account Setup and select Manually configure server settings or additional server types and click Next.
Select Internet E-mail – Connect to POP or IMAP server to send and receive e-mail messages.
Now we need to manually enter in our settings similar to the following. Under the Server Information section verify the following.
- Account Type: IMAP
- Incoming mail server: imap.gmail.com
- Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.gmail.com
Note: If you have a Google Apps account make sure to put the full email address (email@example.com) in the Your Name and User Name fields.
Note: If you live outside of the US you might need to use imap.googlemail.com and smtp.googlemail.com
Next, we need to click on the More Settings button…
In the Internet E-mail Settings screen that pops up, click on the Outgoing Server tab, and check the box next to My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication. Also select the radio button next to Use same settings as my incoming mail server.
In the same window click on the Advanced tab and verify the following.
- Incoming server: 993
- Incoming server encrypted connection: SSL
- Outgoing server encrypted connection TLS
- Outgoing server: 587
Note: You will need to change the Outgoing server encrypted connection first, otherwise it will default back to port 25. Also, if TLS doesn't work, we were able to successfully use Auto. Click OK when finished.
Now we want to test the settings, before continuing on…it's just easier that way incase something was entered incorrectly. To make sure the settings are tested, check the box Test Account Settings by clicking the Next button.
If you've entered everything in correctly, both tasks will be completed successfully and you can close out of the window. and begin using your account via Outlook 2010.
You'll get a final congratulations message you can close out of…
And begin using your account via Outlook 2010.
Using IMAP allows you to synchronize email across multiple machines and devices. The IMAP feature in Gmail is free to use, and this should get you started using it with Outlook 2010. If you're still using 2007 or just upgraded to it, check out our guide on how to use Gmail IMAP in Outlook 2007.

I would highly recommend setting the 'Root Folder Path' in advanced IMAP settings to – [Gmail]
This way you will have a much cleaner folder structure in Outlook.
Ravi, isn't that only useful for exchange server users? am I missing something, or as a home user I'm pretty much stuck with the default?
James, this tweak is not limited to exchange accounts. Works very well with Gmail's IMAP. Instead of getting an 'Inbox' folder outside the 'Gmail' expandable folder, the 'Inbox' is moved under it.
How to send from outlook with different From: address, using Gmail instead of From: gmail account?
Same question as Maksat… is this possible? My Gmail is fetching four different pop accounts (that, unfortunately, don't have independant imap options). Obviously I want my responses to go back through Gmail so that they'll sync to my other computers.
I've always gotten my e-mail from Gmail through POP. As I'd like to be able to sync across two computers, IMAP sounds great. However, I'm getting mail from several different Gmail accounts and it insists on putting mail for each account in its own .PST file. I previously had it all coming into one PST (Outlook.pst) and then used rules to get them sorted into individual folders and sub folders, I'd like to be able to do that again. Can you do that or do they have to go to their own PST file?
The other thing I'm not having trouble with with IMAP is still related to the folders issues, but that when a new message comes in – even when it moves it to a folder in the IMAP account specific PST folders, it doesn't open the folder tree to let me know which folder has new messages. Is there a setting for this?
The first issue is not a deal breaker, I can work across different open PST folders, however, the second one is. I can't work without knowing when and where a new message has come in.

How do you do this? Do I just type in "GMAIL" into the field?
I am having a proxy server connection, how can I input proxy for Outlook 2010?
Its not able to connect with proxy settings as in "internet options"
I discovered a fix for Outlook 2010 not connecting to smtp.gmail.com to send mail–hope this is helpful for people.
If you're getting a "Cannot send the message", Verify your email address" or a "an encrypted connection to your mail server is not available" error, it may be due to a conflict between Outlook 2010, Gmail, and Avast antivirus.
Very easy solution–in Avast, go into "Mail Shield" configuration, and un-check "Scan outbound messages".
Hope this helps–this was bothering me for weeks, and I've not seen this suggestion anywhere on the interwebs.
Hi Cam,
Thanks so much. I had the same problem and had no clue it was due to Avast.
how is the sync speed of outlook 2010, as currently i am using Gmail with Outlook 2007 but it takes ages to sync the IMAP folders.
If Outlook 2010 has much better sync speed then probably i would upgrade to 2010 version.
I've set this up in outlook 2010 and it gets stuck on the "synchronizing subscribed folders" any ideas? Everything synced just fine but when I try and access the sub folders it freezes up. Please help!!
i'm currently testing 2010 and find it very slow to sync. I'm connecting to gmail via Imap and boy does this thing take along time to complete tasks. Try deleting an e-mail – wait 5 secs (at least), it seems to sync folders for hours on end – each day for the last 3 days.
net result, so far i'm thinking of giving it the thumbs down and going back to 2007.
I don't see 2010 as a step forward thus far. MS seems to redesign basic processes on screen, so adding an account now takes place under 'file' rather than under a drop down as it did in 2007. i can't see a clear reason for the change, if anything, it leaves you with a whole screen (file) sitting taking up space that you'll probably never use once configured.
Much of this smacks of change for change sake. Maybe the back end of 2010 is better engineered. if so, not seeing anything impressively better, although its only been two days.
Does anyone else have problems with 2010 constantly spending hours doing file syncs with gmail accounts?
Outlook 2010 was working fine syncing with gmail using pop, recently it stopped pulling emails from my gmail account, however I can send emails fine and receive them in my gmail box, but no longer in my outlook 2010 inbox. When I run send/receive, it completes successfully, but shows no new messages. Last received message was a week ago. Can anyone shed any light on this?? Thanks in advance.

by Ravi Gupta :
are you creating a root folder in Gmail or outlook 2010.
If outlook how do you do that?
@ Ken,
If you have multiple gmail accounts you don't have to create individual .pst files for each one. During the setup for each account you can choose to create a new .pst file or deliver to an existing one. When you choose the latter you browse to the .pst file you want to use and you're good to go. Here's the setting: http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/8982/outlookp.gif
I've got 7 gmail accounts routing into the default outlook.pst file. Works fine.
Does anyone know how to re-import gmail messages into Outlook? I recently fried my laptop and have set up my gmail accounts on my new laptop in Outlook 2010. Everything is fine but I can only bring in new messages from my gmail inbox that have arrived since I set up the Outlook account. All the messages in my gmail that were there prior to this don't come in. I'm hoping there's a way to get them all back into my new .pst file.
Thanks in advance.
I have outlook 2010. And i setup two email accounts one is POP account and one is gmail. When i click on send/receive email all it test all acounts fine. Even i can send / recive emails in gmail account but i can not receive my mails in POP account. And during send / receive process it takes a age to complete the sync to subscribed folders.
Any one has solution.
About setting the root folder to [Gmail]:
After the procedure described above, you should end up with a new subtree in the left pane, that shows your Gmail address and below, several entries, including 'Inbox' and '[Gmail]' – as pictured on the 7th image of this post.
The purpose is to adjust the settings so you don't have the '[Gmail]' entry and it's own subtree, but rather move it to the root of your Gmail address subtree, resulting in a cleaner view.
Here is the procedure to achieve this – please note that I had to translate the menus labels to English, since I run a localized version of Outlook 2010, so actual English labels may differ. In case of doubt, choose the label that has the closest meaning.
– Once you have successfully set up your Gmail account in Outlook 2010, click on Outlook 2010 "File" tab
– Select you Gmail account in the drop-down list, then "Account settings…" drop-down button
– On the e-mail tab (first tab), select your Gmail account in the list, then click on "Modify…" (third button just under the tab label)
– Click on "Additional setting…" button (bottom-right)
– Click on "Advanced options" tab
– The last textbox should have a label similar to "Root Folder Path" – type in "[Gmail]" (without the quotes)
– Validate your inputs by clicking on "OK", then "Next", then "Done" – Outlook should clean up you inbox and send a test mail to your Gmail inbox. You are done.
I found these instructions very useful as I am not very good with this sort of thing. I manually configured with IMAP. However, I am now getting the message: Send test e-mail message: Cannot send the message. Verify the e-mail address in your account properties. I have Kaspersky antivirus. Could there be a conflict? Any help appreciated as to how to overcome this. I am running my domain email address through Google apps and my head is about to explode :)
Any help appreciated, thanks.
Extremely helpful and well written guide! I had no idea about POP and IMAP but now some of it actually makes sense to me ;) Thank you very much!
@Johnny – Any results?!?!? Having same issue:
"I've set this up in outlook 2010 and it gets stuck on the "synchronizing subscribed folders" any ideas? Everything synced just fine but when I try and access the sub folders it freezes up. Please help!!"
Jenn – I am getting the same problem. I have a new laptop with Windows & and Outlook 2010. THe set up was easy and worked just fine at first. Now it locks up every time.
This worked -thanks
Same here on the sync issue. I've been using Outlook 2007 for years with gmail IMAP without any issues, but after upgrading it seems to hang on syncing. I've removed and re-added the gmail account and checked all the settings, but no success.
Ditto on the sync issue. It downloads a bunch of files, and then stops and freezes up. No way to re-start it. I do have large number of emails in my Gmail account, but I've tried setting it so that it only downloads the last week of emails. Same problem.
I found that someone wrote this on a different site about sync issues with imap:
"If you are using IMAP, you need to either turn off automatic send and receive or make sure that the IMAP account is not included in that. Automatic send and receive interferes with the IMAP update which happens separately.
To explain the option:
* If your IMAP account is the only account you have, then you can simply turn off automatic send and receive because it is unnecessary.
* If you have other email accounts that are using POP, you will probably want them updated regularly, so leave on the auto s & r for them, but disable it for the IMAP accounts. You could also just do the s & r manually."
This seemed to help with my sync issue, and I am still receiving emails.
However, when i send emails, they go to "Outlook Data File" "Outbox" and then I have to click "send all" and wait for messages to send. Is there a way of changing this?
To MR: your instructions were very usefull, Thanks.
I am still having a problem though. Syncing is going fine. My problem is that every time i want to delete or move or do anything with my emails from my gmail account it takes forever. I think this is because every move you make it has to constantly sync with gmail. Got any solutions anyone??? PLEASE help out. Thanks
Hi !…
I'm really want to know, how to configure outlook 2010 with the same gmail in two different computers?
How can i get the same information in two different computers from the same gmail?
Thanks for your support !
Best Regards,
I have set everything just how the instructions indicate and can not link email w/ outlook? This is not absolutly necassary, however I feel it will save a lot of valulable time.
Every other email I have has linked w/ no problems but I can not get gmail to go thru.
Any help that anyone has to offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
This was great! thanks
anybody knows how to change the address of my Gmail outlook data file, (I have setup an IMAP account) an by default outlook has made pst file in my C: partition, and there is no option to change the folder. For POP you can change the folder but for IMAP this option is off. I want to change it to my D:.
any comment would be appreciated.
Augie…if you have seven gmail accounts routing into one .pst, then you must have set them up as POP accounts, instead of IMAP. The option to route them to one folder disappears if you select IMAP. After much research and experimentation, the only way I can find to view all your IMAP accounts in one folder, is to use search.
Robinhuot….to keep gmail synced between two different computers, just set it up as an IMAP account, instead of POP, according to the instructions shown at the top of this page.
relay worked, thanks
I have a weird problem with Outlook 2010 & Gmail that I can't figure out:
Even though I have send & receive scheduled, Outlook doesn't load messages until I open a gmail folder. So, if I don't open the "Inbox," I don't know whether or not I have any new mail. And, if I have any sorting rules applied, I don't know that there is a new sorted message until I open the folder it was sent to. Obviously, this is really annoying and I'd like to know if I have new e-mail without opening the inbox. I'm using IMAP and I have the settings set to subscribe to all of the folders, download the full message (which it never does either), and send/receive every 5 mins.
Any suggestions? Thanks so much.
I thank Cam above for resolving my issue – it was the setting in Avast!
I discovered a fix for Outlook 2010 not connecting to smtp.gmail.com to send mail–hope this is helpful for people.
If you're getting a "Cannot send the message", Verify your email address" or a "an encrypted connection to your mail server is not available" error, it may be due to a conflict between Outlook 2010, Gmail, and Avast antivirus.
Very easy solution–in Avast, go into "Mail Shield" configuration, and un-check "Scan outbound messages".
Hope this helps–this was bothering me for weeks, and I've not seen this suggestion anywhere on the interwebs.
I get an error saying your imap server closed connection? any ideas?
Same thing as you, won't see if there are any new messages until I click the inbox. Two ways I have found to get around this" 1 Keep outlook open all the time while you're working at your computer, when it gets new e-mail you will get a pop-up.
Or 2: Download google desktop, add the google e-mail notifer or e-mail side gadget. These will give you pops when new g-mail comes in, even if outlook is closed. I like having the google mail gadget on my desktop because I can preview the e-mail and who it's from. The I know if I need to open outlook or can just delete the e-mail from the gadget.
If I need to open outlook, and its not already open, then I open outlook, go have a smoke, get some food, watch some TV then come back and its almost done synching :)
As to the inbox being in g-mail and not the normal inbox for outlook, I did not move the lication of the .pst file. I just removed the old "inbox" from my faviortes and added the inbox for g-mail to my favorites. If you have more than one e-mail coming in (I just route everything through g-mail) you may be able to re-name the inboxs as weeel then add to favorites
Roli I get that as well sometimes, just wait a second, retry and goes away. Also getht he "this sites cetficate is something" do you want to conect anyway?
All this is worth delaing with for me since I just do not like googles e-mail setup, crappy task managemnt, ugly calnder, so I deal with glitchs to use outlook keep my mails in snych
I have entered all the settings as shown above and i get the following errors:
* Log onto incoming mail server (IMAP): The connection to the server failed.
* Send test e-mail message: Cannot find the e-mail server. Verify the server information in your account properties.
Can anyone help me
Hi Privesh,
I have had the exact same problem have you found an answer to this problem yet? I really need my accounts to be linked in OL. Being a college student I need to manage my time wisely, and doing this will be extreamly helpful if I can ever get it to work that is.
Privesh/Rebbecca, I'm running into the exact same problems. I've tried every configuration method possible. What kills me is that I successfully set gmail imap to my iphone a day ago, now I can't set it in OL!!
Someone help please!!!
Thank you for your effort. at last i have been able to configure my gmail account using above instruction. i have tried many other different instructions but none of them worked somehow. the point was that i am outside the US and i need to use googlemail instead of gmail. thanks a lot for your effort.
Removing the scheduled Send & Receive for IMAP accts is the key.
They don't need it.
You may need to run Send & Receive manually if you are doing offline work and then reconnect later.
POP accts need scheduled Send & Receive, however.
Thank you very much. It's very useful.
Thank you a million MR it worked perfectly. I was sick of subfolders in subfolders in outlook.
thank you so much!!!! finally I made it! i have been trying to set up outlook for weeks now but it didn't work out… you just don't know how happy i am right now! thank you God bless you!
I set the Root Folder Path to [Gmail] but I still have an Inbox and all my original folders under that (which I assumed should have stayed after changing POP to iMap) but now I also have a suite of Gmail folders and that Inbox is the active one. Do I simply move all my old folders under Gmail/Inbox?
Thanks for any help anyone can shed on this. I couldn't see any guide for implications of folders in changing from POP to iMap
I'm using Outlook 2010 with Windows 7 OS.
My internet provider is Mediacom (mchsi.com).
In the Mediacom preferences, I've selected "forward incoming mail to my gmail account".
I am NOT receiving mail (forwarded) in my gmail account when sent to my mchsi account.
I am getting the mail in my mchsi account.
If mail is sent directly to my gmail account I DO receive it.
Any help would be appreciated.
I had things working fine in my OL 2010 under WinXP with my regular POP account and an associated IMAP account from gMail. When I had a failure and put in a new driv,e I also changed OS to Win7 then reloaded Office 2010 & OL. Now it won't bring in my IMAP e-mail account. I followed as above numerous times including the More Setting requirements, and at the end it even tests OK. But when I press Next I get an Outlook error stating "the required operation failed" and I cannot figure this out. Why was it working before I reloaded, and why won't it set up now? I have Norton and shut off both the firewall and A/V and still nothing.
appreciate any help with this!!
Thank you it worked, actually it failed when i used imap.googlemail.com but then back to gmail.com it worked ..
I am having an intersting issue with my setup in 2010.
It worked great for a few weeks and now anything delivered within the past 2 days is being removed from the gmail server once outlook checks the mail. I have it set to leave a copy on the server but it is not working.
Hello can anyone please help with configuring OUTLOOK through a proxy? It works fine when i connect through any 3G enabled service provider. But in office, I need to put proxy like " abcdc : 8080″ in the IE settings, Gmail.com works but outlook doesnot connect to imap and smtp servers. please help. thanks
Great work guys! Appreciate the troubleshooting as I am outside US and changing the username to full email address finally overcame my faults
I use a domain email address through gmail. I have switched to Outlook2010 and I am not receiving all my mail. I only receive mail from when I am online anything received when I am offline is not received and I have to forward to my inbox from my iphone to be actioned. I have syncd with gmail and this has forward all previous mail. I have checked that my phone and email are set to 'leave messages on server' Currently I am using POP3 and IMAP looks like it might help but I have followed the instructions, double checked the info but I am getting the following error message 'the requested operation failed' after outlook has successfully sent and received a test message and the press next to finish the procedure – Any ideas or suggestions gratefully received
Hi there,
I have a question here.
I have set up gmail acct in outlook, IMAP account.
However, gmail is not synchronized to the outlook data file, and all the folders in the outlook data file remain empty. Any idea on this?
Many thanks!
Thanks~ it work for me~
Wow, after struggling for several days to get my gmail in Outlook 2010 (including reinstalling Outlook after it would not let me get into the configuration menus) the trick was to get the incoming and outgoing server port numbers set up properly. No where but in this posting did I find the steps to get this done. THANK YOU.
I can't add my imap gmail account to OL 2010. I've done the advanced settings change and Send and Receive change and everything I can think of. I still get the following error when testing my settings:
"Log onto incoming mail server (IMAP): The host 'imap.gmail.com' cannot be found. Verify that the server name is typed correctly." and "Send test e-mail message: Cannot find the e-mail server. Verify the server information in your account properties."
Please please help. Frustration!!!
I have been 2 days now trying to prove myself that I do nnot need help and I can get Outlook 2010 to receive my mail. Have got to establish the account, but does not get the mail: Send test e-mail message: Cannot send the message. Verify the e-mail address in your account properties. The server responded: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. f14sm2686475ani.15
Can anyone help please? I am coming from the enemy side of Apple, and this is not helping my cause!
great tutorial! worked perfectly with the "manual setup" option.
Hi there, I've been using outlook with Gmail for sometimes however, using the tip on this page to set the root folder to "Gmail" I loose access to all my nice Gmail folders, however using it it does look nice getting rid of the Gmail tabs.
Is there anyway to have my cake and eat it? Meaning to set the root folder to Gmail but retain the folder information? Or do I have to set up rules in Outlook too?
How do I syn calander and contacts between Gmail and Outlook. I have the mail syning but not the calander and contacts
Forum pretty cool, I'll be here every day.
Is there some secret setting to get IMAP Gmail to sync all folders in OL 2010 on a Win 7 64bit machine? Used the auto setup of IMAP Gmail but folders don't sync unless I click on "Update Folder" and this also applies to the "Inbox" When using OL 2007 on an XP machine it works fine. Gmail pushes to my iPhone, just does not seem to push to OL. I am not popping any other email accounts so I disabled "Scheduled Send/Receive" but that didn't seem to help either. Selecting a folder and clicking "Update Folder" is the only way I can get things working. I can send and receive IMAP Gmail just fine but can't get it pushed to OL 2010. Any tips would be appreciated.
I have set up outlook 2010 with gmail using IMAP and it is synching however, when I move a file to a different folder in my outlook program, some of the files disappear and end up usually in the trash folder. Also, the whole individual PST thing is AWFULL!!!! I have more foders containing the same emails than I know what to do with. It is extreamly confusing!!! I was previously using Windows Mail and had all my gmail accounts downloading using POP but had to change to IMAP because of a glitch that Outlook 2010 has that causes POP to re download over and over again.
Can anyone help with this?
This is an update to my post of Sept 26th. If you've been using IMAP Gmail for a long time, as I have, and switch to a new machine, new operating system and new version of Outlook, it takes several days for all the folders to sync and push new mail to the Inbox. I went from Windows XP Professional using Outlook 2007 to a new machine using Windows 7 Professional using Outlook 2010. As I mentioned in my previous post mail was not being pushed to OL 2010's Inbox. I did all kinds of searches trying to find out why. Some said turn off the Windows Firewall, others gave other ideas, but the real reason was the time involved to sync over 86K items. In the Control Panel of Win 7 there is a Sync icon and that is where I found the information. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what was wrong but the simple answer is to give things a few days to sync up. Go figure……
Thanks Friend…
I have seen this issue mentioned by a few people in this thread, but no resolution yet –
I am starting with a vanilla outlook install, setting up google apps as the only profile. This creates 2 pst files, 1 for @domain.com and 1 for "Outlook Data File"
Outlook Data File is set as the default data file. I need @domain.com to be the default data file, however, the option to do this (Outlook -> Account Settings -> Data Files -> highlight and Set as Default) is grayed out and not accessible. Does anybody know why I am unable to make this change?
Due to this current setup, I can receive email fine, when testing the account, the send works fine, but when creating a new email, send does not work because outlook is sending from the wrong account.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Ok, slight update. Completely deleted the outlook profile and all pst files and started from scratch. Send is "working" now. Send still goes through Outlook Data File however, and I can't set the correct default data file (still grayed out). Issue now is that I am getting two copies of each sent item in my Sent Items folder. Guess it is back to google to search. If anyone has run across this, please let me know.
i have the same / a similar problem – since i passed from my godaddy pop3 to google app's imap
1. doubling of sent mail
2. can't delete old outlook data file, and cannot make the new one (the google apps one) into default
there is apparently no solution to #2 because of the contacts and calendar features in outlook:
very irritating, but in all ends it isn't an obstacle to sending & receiving mail
if you can find a solution to #1, please reply
I tried these instructions, and I still cannot connect my Outlook 2010 to my gmail. When I test my account, it fails.
Please help!
Thank you.

MORGANTOWN - Dana Holgorsen admitted Thursday he wasn't surprised by what he saw out of transfer quarterback Clint Trickett as the West Virginia University football team opened training camp for the 2013 season.
"For a guy in his very first practice here, he did good," the WVU head coach said. "Clint's seasoned. He doesn't get nervous, and you can tell he has some game experience."
Trickett completed 66 of 106 passes for 947 yards during his time at Florida State. But he opted to finish his playing days in Morgantown after he fell down the Seminoles' depth chart this spring.

Transfer quarterback Clint Trickett looks downfield as he rolls out of the pocket during drills at Thursday's West Virginia University football practice. Trickett, who left Florida State this summer, is competing to be the Mountaineers' starting quarterback this season.
But even though Trickett is the more experienced quarterback in camp for the Mountaineers, Holgorsen isn't ready to say Paul Millard and Ford Childress will again be relegated to a backup role.
"We were just running plays, trying to get the offense installed," Holgorsen said. "We'll get into some situational stuff later. That's when I start judging guys to see who's going to be the man."
Holgorsen said Childress and Millard are both capable of leading the Mountaineer offense this season, but added that Trickett did not show any signs of being the new kid on the block.
"If there were hesitation and panic and all that stuff, we would have an issue," Holgorsen said. "He handled it well, so it's not something I'm concerned with."
Holgorsen said the first day of practice was "typical, like most practices across the country."
He said the players' energy levels were high and their attitudes positive.
"Everybody was excited to get back to work," he said. "We were looking at things like communication, the tempo they play with, and we were pleased with how that went. It went well from an assignment standpoint."
West Virginia will continue preseason drills today at Mountaineer Field.

NEW YORK CITY -- Why, doggone it to heck and hailstones. They're really going to pull it off.
The first Super Bowl to be played outdoors in a cold-weather climate is going to go off right on schedule Sunday, with no scheduled sleet or icicles or herds of Sasquatches conducting the instant replay reviews. The forecast is for temperatures in the 40s with winds of up to 6 miles per hour.
"It looks like it's going to be a lot warmer than we anticipated," said NFL commissioner Roger Goodell at his final media session before the game, trying very hard not to smirk and go "neener-neener-neener."
Sometimes you truly do wonder if the NFL truly can control the weather. A week ago here, the area was all but snowbound and the air was freezing. But the league has lucked out. The conditions should not materially affect the game — even if the folks paying $2,000 for a ticket will have to endure a little chill.
What that means: The most popular sports event in America may return not just to New York, but be awarded to other cold-weather outdoor stadiums and cities. Get ready for Super Bowl bids from Philadelphia, Washington D.C. and Denver. Among others.
And none of that should overjoy anyone in the Bay Area — at least anyone who is looking to see the 49ers' new stadium become a regular stop in the Super Bowl rotation. The game will be played in Santa Clara two years from now. And the thinking has been, if San Francisco and Northern California pull off the event with enough style and efficiency, there could be comeback visits every five or six years — the same as with Miami and New Orleans.
But now, if Sunday's proceedings go off without a hitch, the field is wide open to any region with 30,000 hotel rooms and the will to assemble a Super Bowl bid — even if Goodell was very careful in talking about that issue.
"We know there's interest in other communities hosting the Super Bowl," Goodell said. "We'll all sit back and review it when we're done with this. But we have a very aggressive process in how to select cities. The ability to host a Super Bowl is more and more complicated, more and more complex, because of the size of the event and the number of events."
In other words: Your friendly local NFL mammoth marketing machine might not want to hear from Jacksonville or Kansas City or Green Bay ... but otherwise, the league is all ears.
"There's such a demand for Super Bowls right now," Goodell continued. "The number of cities that are going to get multiple Super Bowls, I think, are incredibly limited ... I believe we need to get to as many communities as possible and give them the opportunity to share not only in the emotional benefits but the economic benefits."
In other words: Denver is already lining up with gift baskets for Goodell.
Oddly enough, the commissioner never addressed the most significant reason that a cold-weather site in February is potentially a hazard: The prospect that a really lousy winter storm could blow in and turn the game into a farce.
That is the true reason such sites are a bad idea. The NFL's luck in 2014 is no indication of future good fortune. Some of us think it's just a horrible idea, period.
Behind the scenes, there are also murmurs that some corporate sponsors have had difficulty convincing their best clients to attend--even with complimentary tickets--because those clients don't want to endure the discomfort. Their idea of a groovy Super Bowl site is someplace warm or indoors.
And ultimately, if enough of those corporate sponsors squawk, that would be enough to make the league pause and reconsider future football coldness. The argument that the NFL has always played bad-weather games ignores the fact that those games are played in home stadiums. Neutral-site corporate crowds are different. They expect more luxury for their big bucks.
Meanwhile, you can't say New York is ignoring the game. Some thought the Super Bowl might be swallowed up by the metropolis. And it's true that the Broncos and Seahawks' jerseys are far more scattered than at most Super Bowl sites. Maybe one in every 50 people is wearing one, as opposed to one in eight or 10 people in New Orleans who were wearing Ravens and 49ers' jerseys last year.
Yet the locals are wallowing in the event. Over the past week, a long section of Broadway was turned into "Super Bowl Boulevard." It featured music and games and, of course, the peculiar American tradition of screaming and waving your hands for the possibility of being tossed a tee shirt with a commercial logo.
A week earlier, snowballs would have been tossed instead. Goodell, who said he will sit outside here Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium, owes someone upstairs a whole bunch of NFL licensed merchandise.

SANTA CLARA — Coach Jim Harbaugh has "definitely noticed" the string of performance-enhancing-drug suspensions that have hit the 49ers' chief division rival, the Seattle Seahawks, over the past 18 months.
"It has no place in an athlete's body," Harbaugh said of performance-enhancing drugs in general. "Play by the rules.
"You always want to be above reproach, especially when you're good, because you don't want people to come back and say, 'They're winning because they're cheating.' That's always going to be a knee-jerk reaction from people I've found in my experience, ever since I was a little kid."
The Seahawks, who finished a half-game behind the 49ers in last season's NFC West standings, have had six players test positive for performance-enhancing substances since December 2011. Only cornerback Richard Sherman escaped a four-game suspension upon appeal.
Harbaugh, speaking at the start of the 49ers' three-day minicamp, did not chastise the Seahawks directly for the officially undisclosed violations.
"You don't know what it is," Harbaugh said of the drugs in question. "Even when people say what it is, you don't know that's what it is. But that's usually the agents of the players themselves saying it's, for example, Adderall.
"But the NFL doesn't release what it actually is. So, you have no idea. You're taking someone at their word, and I don't know you can take them at their word, understanding the circumstances."
Harbaugh said the 49ers have a "constant theme" warning their players about banned substances.
"We want to be above reproach in everything, and do everything be the rules," Harbuagh said. "Because if you cheat, then you've already lost, according to Bo Schembechler. And Bo Schembechler is about next to the word of God as you can get in my mind. It's not the word of God, but it's close."
Sherman recently told ESPN The Magazine that "it does seem that way" whether the Seahawks have a PED problem. He's repeatedly denied taking Adderall.
Last month, defensive end Bruce Irvin became the latest Seahawks players to draw a PED suspension. Others since December 2011 have been handed down to guard John Moffitt, offensive tackle Allen Barbre, safety Winston Guy and safety Brandon Browner.
Linebacker Larry Grant, who played the past two seasons for the 49ers, drew a four-game suspension last month for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. Grant is currently a free agent, and he's issued a statement claiming he did not knowingly take a banned substance.

A Boulder grand jury indictment in 1999 accused John and Patsy Ramsey of two counts each of child abuse resulting in death in connection to the first-degree murder of their 6-year-old daughter JonBenét, according to documents released Friday morning.
The charges didn't directly accuse the Ramseys of killing their daughter. Instead they alleged that the parents permitted JonBenét to be placed in a dangerous situation that led to her death and it accused them of helping whoever killed the girl.
The Ramseys were never officially indicted, however, because former District Attorney Alex Hunter refused to sign the documents and prosecute the Ramseys.
The documents were compiled long before new DNA evidence that led the Boulder district attorney to publicly exonerate the parents and apologize to them in 2008.
"The DNA was not available to the grand jury in 1999," said Lin Wood, the Ramseys' attorney. "What we have here is a release of a sliver of the evidence that the grand jury looked at and reviewed. It's just based on incomplete evidence. "
JonBenét's body was found in the basement of her parents' Boulder home on the day after Christmas in 1996. She had been strangled, and her skull had been fractured.
Her parents were placed under what one investigator called "an umbrella of suspicion," but they denied any involvement in their daughter's death. Patsy Ramsey died in June 2006 after battling ovarian cancer for more than a decade.
Friday's release involved four pages of the grand jury's indictment and centered on just two counts, which were identical for both of the Ramseys.
Count four of the indictment said the Ramseys "did unlawfully, knowingly, recklessly and feloniously permit a child to be unreasonably placed in a situation which posed a threat of injury to the child's life or health, which resulted in the death of JonBenét Ramsey, a child under the age of sixteen."
Count seven of the indictment said the Ramseys did "unlawfully, knowingly and feloniously render assistance to a person, with intent to hinder, delay and prevent the discovery, detention, apprehension, prosecution, conviction and punishment of such person for the commission of a crime, knowing the person being assisted has committed and was suspected of the crime of murder in the first degree and child abuse resulting in death."
Neither Hunter nor John Ramsey returned calls seeking comment on Friday.
Judge Robert Lowenbach ruled Wednesday morning that the court would release the indictment Friday in response to a lawsuit brought by Boulder Daily Camera reporter Charlie Brennan and the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press.
The Camera reported earlier this year that the Boulder County grand jury investigating the Ramsey case voted in October 1999 to indict the Ramseys on charges of child abuse resulting in death, but Hunter refused to sign the document and prosecute the Ramseys.
The three-year statute of limitations on the charges in the reported indictment would have expired in 2002.
"While grand jury witnesses and their testimony remain shielded for good reason, the ultimate decisions of juries and prosecutors must be public if the people are to retain any faith or trust in the rule of law," Brennan said in a first-person story Friday explaining why he fought for the documents' release.
Denver defense attorney and legal analyst Dan Recht said the documents show the conflict within the grand jury.
"In a sense, they seem to be classic compromise grand jury decision," Recht said. "They can't decide whether to indict on murder. They can't decide not to indict at all. So they compromise in between."
Curiously, the charges in each parent's unsigned indictment are listed as Count IV(a) and Count VII. Recht said that shows the district attorney presented multiple possible charges to the grand jury — likely including murder — and that these two were the only ones the grand jury could agree upon. And that, Recht said, shows why Hunter was reluctant to go forward with any of the charges.
"In part, this vindicates Alex Hunter," Recht said. "He probably saw this as a classic compromise, and he believed, if he couldn't prove murder, he couldn't prove either of these beyond a reasonable doubt."
John Ramsey had urged the court to release all of the grand jury's report, rather than just the portion posted by the court on Friday. He argued that the partial release offered a skewed view of the proceedings.
"The court is sympathetic to the position of Mr. Ramsey," Lowenbach said, but a release of the entire record "would set a precedent that would impede other Grand Juries in performing their functions under statute and rule."
Hal Haddon, one of John Ramsey's attorneys, said in a letter to the Boulder district attorney that Friday's document release "only serves to further defame him and his late wife Patricia Ramsey. Mr. Ramsey will have no access to whatever evidence the prosecutors presented to the grand jury and will have no ability to disprove these allegations in a court of law. Nor will the public ... have any ability to evaluate the propriety of the indictment unless the entire grand jury record is unsealed and opened to public view."
In 2008, Boulder District Attorney Mary Lacy took the extraordinary step of publicly exonerating the child's parents and immediate family in her death and apologizing to them. She cited new DNA evidence that pointed to an unknown male as JonBenet's killer.
In a letter hand-delivered to John Ramsey, Lacy said she was confident the DNA belongs to the killer.
"Significant new evidence . . . convinces us that it is appropriate, given the circumstances of this case, to state that we do not consider your immediate family, including you, your wife, Patsy, and your son, Burke, to be under any suspicion in the commission of this crime," Lacy wrote.
Wood said he is concerned that the indictment's release will appear to some to be confirmation that the Ramseys killed their daughter, when they have been cleared.
"It's subject to the impression that criminal charges were warranted against the Ramseys. A full examination of the evidence unquestionably exonerates the Ramseys," Wood said. "This is inflicting a terrible miscarriage of justice."

Gregory Arthur Weiler II, 24, of Elk Grove Village, Ill., is accused of planning to destroy 48 churches in northeastern Oklahoma and preparing to launch the attacks from a tiny motel he was holed up in near Interstate 44 in Miami, Okla.
"When we visited him (in jail) he was unable to finish his sentences," Weiler's aunt, Joanne Meyers, said sobbing.
A federal grand jury indictment unsealed Wednesday charges Weiler with one count of possessing an unregistered, destructive device, a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. He was arraigned Wednesday in a federal court in Tulsa and entered a not-guilty plea through his lawyer.
The attorney did not return phone messages Thursday and Friday seeking comment.
Relatives of Weiler say he has struggled with mental illness and may have stopped taking his medication before his arrest.
"We're very concerned if he realized what's happening to him," Meyers said Wednesday in a brief phone interview.
Investigators say they searched Weiler's motel room after two apartment maintenance men found a duffel bag in a rubbish bin behind the motel that contained bomb-making materials such as bottles and a gas can. Authorities say inside the room they discovered instructions on how to make Molotov cocktails and hand-drawn sketches of the churches targeted.
"The nature of the crime got federal agents involved, and that kind of weapon—an explosive device such as a bomb —is one that will initially draw in other police, specialists and investigators," said Joseph F. Wilson, criminal chief for the U.S. attorney's office in the northern district of Oklahoma, on Friday.
This week, federal marshals moved Weiler from the Ottawa County jail to a federal jail in Tulsa to await trial.

I recently purchased qCad and have found it excellent in most respects, however I am having a few problems.
1&4. When I try to use the hatch feature with a pattern, nothing is added to the drawing irrespective of scale. The log says "Hatch created successfully." The solid fill works fine if I ignore the manual and do it the way I would expect it to work. The manual says to start the hatch process before selecting the entities surrounding the area to be filled. This is impossible because the hatch button immediately pulls up the hatch properties screen - closing this produces the error "no contour selected".
I work around this by selecting the contours and then hit the hatch button. Still no patterns - only solid fill works. The patterns are there to select, so I assume that the patterns are in the path.
2. If I highlight a block in the block list and then hit the block edit button, a new window appears in which I can edit the block. So far so good.
There is nothing in the manual to say how to save this edit. I have found that simply changing back to the main drawing window seems to achieve this. However if I decide to re-edit the item by hitting the block edit button again, a blank window appears with no image. It seems that if a window exists for that block it is not re-opened for edit, rather a new blank window is produced.
Surely the existing edit window should be opened.
3. If I am using several side bars (block list, layer list, properties box etc) then I can suddenly find the command line missing off the bottom of the screen - the only way to get it back is to re-size the screen and run in that state between full screen and minimized that has no name! Is there a way to lock the screen layout once it is the way I want it? (as it has a mind of its own like a wobbly jelly when I try to drag things around)

We've all been there. Looking into the pleading eyes of a puppy
or kitten who needs a good home. In that moment, it's hard to think straight. Fortunately,
Dr. Sarah is here to help. In this episode of Pet Talk, Dr. Sarah discusses the
five biggest mistakes that new pet parents make, and how to avoid them. By taking
these solutions to heart, your next adoption could just be the best decision you've
ever made!
On April 27th, a massive storm system spawned over 180 tornadoes across the southeastern U.S., cutting a swathe of damage, injuries and death. The majority of the destruction occurred in Alabama, where tornados reached strengths of F4 and F5, the most destructive possible. Nearly 4,000 businesses were shuttered due to extensive damage. The full extent of the devastation is difficult to comprehend.
Now, just a few short weeks after experiencing the worst tornadic outbreak in over 50 years, Alabama residents are still digging through the rubble. So many lives were lost, many more were injured, and thousands are homeless. Many of those affected by the disaster included companion animals. Fortunately, a rescue organization has been making great strides in assisting dogs, cats and pet parents through this unbelievably trying time.
Established in 1971, the Humane Society of West Alabama is a no-kill, all-volunteer, non-profit organization utterly dedicated to the dogs and cats in their care. They operate on a spare budget, thanks entirely to donations and fundraisers, but never spare on the superior care they provide their rescues. In 2010, they placed 109 dogs and 91 cats in new forever homes, in addition to providing support to another hundred animals and families in need. More...
Last month, we launched a new series about 'holistic' health care for companion animals. Remember, holistic care entails viewing the body as a whole as well as how every discrete part works in relation to all the other parts. In keeping with a holistic mindset, this month I want to address fleas. Flea season is, or will very soon be, upon us again and the treatment of fleas illustrates how important the holistic approach is.
If you've experienced problems with fleas, or if your dog or cat is itchy, ask the following questions …
Do you live in a warm, humid environment? Or, has it been unusually warm for the past three weeks?
Under warm, humid conditions, a flea can complete its life cycle in only three weeks. Fleas have four life stages: egg, larvae, pupae and adult. Fleas take up residence in carpets and bedding, and when stimulated by vibrations, carbon dioxide or heat, adults hatch and seek out a host in your dog or cat. Upon transferral to your companion animal's skin and coat, a flea can live for a year or more.
Have you just moved into a new home? Did animals live there before you?
If so, beware! There may be large numbers of flea eggs and larvae lurking in the carpet just waiting to hatch. More...
