- Heroin in Denver: How to find help
Angel strides stiffly toward the trash container that serves as her bedroom. Even after 9 p.m., the record-breaking summer heat bounces into her face from the asphalt. She has been walking for miles, morning and evening. Thirteen hours this day at Santa Fe and Mississippi, flying her sign of hopeful lies. "Need help to get a bus ticket to Wisconsin." The sign netted one hundred and three dollars. People give money hoping against their better judgment that Angel will use it well. She is about to prove them wrong.
From her pile at the edge of a warehouse loading dock, Angel pulls a filthy bedroll and lays it out. She digs in the carefully managed drug compartment of her ever-present backpack, intent on the ritual. She twists open a scrap of tinfoil to uncover a pea-sized brown lump of heroin.
The lump drops into an empty tin meant to hold a votive candle. She sprinkles in a couple tablespoons of water, ties a string around her forearm to pop the veins, then begins the meticulous search for an unsullied path between her knuckles. Her movements are quick but sure — she could mix and inject with her eyes closed, but she stares intently at the dissolving dope.
All is quiet. The Yuppie softball players under the lights at Lincoln Park have gone home. There's a pause between light rail trains, 30 feet from Angel's trash bin.
The heroin plunges in, and Angel's eyes close. Now she is back to "normal." Tonight she won't sleep right away. This hit is merely an energy snack.
Angel Gamboeck's life as a young opiate addict in Denver is sad but increasingly common. As law enforcement officials across the country worry about a new generation of pill poppers moving into cheap heroin, Angel reflects all their fears.
She is a panhandler whose community of hundreds is ignored once commuters reach home. She is a perpetrator and a victim without the money or willpower to get help, searching for a safe place to score and sleep, headed for destruction.
During six months in the spring and summer, The Denver Post walked the streets with 23-year-old Angel, documenting a dangerous increase in heroin use.
One of the few things that can make Angel cry is thinking of her father, who Angel says has tamped down his own substance problems with a workaholic's demeanor. She remembers a letter her father wrote when she was 17. A friend of the family had taught her to smoke meth, and Angel had been up for a week straight. It was Mother's Day. Her father tried to wake her up for a family party.
The letter said, 'I'm worried about you, I don't want you to fall into a bigger trap of drugs than we already are.'
"I always wish I would have listened to him then," she says. "I guess I wouldn't have ended up here if I just never would have done drugs after that."
But she didn't listen. And an addict's progression has led her to Denver, living in a trash bin and about to lose even that.
The owners of the book warehouse have posted signs: all her possessions will be thrown out tomorrow morning. Clean, quiet Angel is not the problem, they say. It's the junkies around her, who defecate on their walls when they are trying to show leasing clients the nice views west.
Tonight she must move her bedroll off the sheltered loading dock where she has slept most of the last year to a barely concealed grove of weeds a mile south in an abandoned parking lot.
The lot is on the corner of a government-owned trespasser's haunt, every bedding place ruined by broken glass and crumbling concrete. The squalor is offset by a few good memories, though. Months and many homeless camping spots ago, she slept here with Josiah, her soulmate in love and drugs.
Joe's not available today. Angel knew he was behind bars but has just learned the length of his sentence for armed robbery in Wisconsin.
He'll have to write her from prison for the next eight years. She is used to writing him letters that can run eight pages long, on paper torn from a black composition notebook.
Angel crawls through fences and drops bags of clothes at her new spot, thinking she's finished one task. But a day in the life of an addict can almost always get worse. And it does. Crossing the railroad tracks to return for one more load, she is stopped by three RTD cops.
Did she know walking across tracks is a federal felony? She will not say. Does she have ID? She says she does not. Will she give her name? For some reason, she gives her real one.
A radio check shows she has been caught before, riding without a ticket, on top of panhandling and other offenses. They issue her a 30-day ban from riding public transit and so her day ends in walking, the crumpled triplicate copy of the ban skittering behind her on the hot pavement.
By her own account, Angel has been on drugs more than half her life.
Weed at 12. Cocaine at 14, the first white line set out for her by her family. When Angel was 15, she said, her mom started smoking crack and shared it with Angel and her sister. Opium-based pain pills appeared the same year. She ingested them in a succession of forms: Swallowing, snorting and finally, shooting up her arm.
"I was totally against it for a long time," Angel said, of her family's wide and deep descent into any substance they could find. "I just caved into the peer pressure around me."
As an abuser of deadly prescription narcotics, she joined 12 million Americans and growing who abuse the pills every year. It's "hillbilly heroin," arriving legally through the mail, drugstores and clinics.
She did all this while graduating near the top of her class in a southern Wisconsin high school, with a 3.7 GPA, scholarship offers and a head for math.
What worries law enforcement, from Wisconsin to Denver to D.C., is the kind of simple math Angel did a couple of years ago.
Pain pills may be everywhere, but heroin as an opium delivery vehicle is far cheaper. Addicts discover this when they've finally burned through all the pills their friends give them, or the ones they steal from their parents' medicine cabinets: one Percocet pill on the street costs $80.
For the same price, in a big city, a shooter can buy four or five doses of potent heroin. Enough to keep an opiate addict in a stupor for days.
Angel's fiance, in prison scrubs in the visiting room of the Kettle Moraine Correctional Institution in central Wisconsin, starts to cry when he tells of the day Angel first injected heroin.
She was 21, living with Joe in an apartment near Madison, and doing janitorial work at a local John Deere plant that fit with her solitary nature. A friend of Joe's asked him for a heroin connection, and Joe asked his pill sources. When the heroin arrived, Joe, already addicted to pills after a cement accident burned his skin, joined in.
Angel is 10 years younger than Joe. To her family's lament, she did what Joe did. She's been using the needle for all forms of her drugs ever since.
Both of Angel's parents have fought their own addictions. They saw the same streak in Joe, and hounded Angel to break it off.
Angel and Joe struck out West to get clean at an uncle's house in Wyoming. For them, clean meant using only Vicodin and Percocet, but they did manage 15 days without heroin.
They snuck to buy meth in Cheyenne, and the uncle kicked them out.
Without the money for tickets all the way to Wisconsin, the two ended up at a bus station in Denver.
The first person they met was a homeless junkie who hooked them up with some heroin, and Angel's spring of 2011 was a blur of scoring, sleeping outside, and sweet, doped-up reveries by the Platte River with Joe.
Angel and Joe did get back to Wisconsin together once, in the summer of 2011. Joe tells it this way, the kind of street-luck tale that is fantastic even if only half true. Angel got up from their Platte River squatter's tent on his birthday, and came back to wake Joe up. She'd found an abandoned bike, and in the saddlebags was $9,500 in cash. She used much of it to buy him a Cadillac.
They bought a seemingly bottomless bag of dope and drove carefree across country, eating better and partying more than they had in a long time. They arrived in their home state with no cash left at all. They knew they and their bad habit were not wanted.
Joe was too embarrassed to ask his family for help. So he robbed a convenience store in a tiny town called Beaver Dam. The one-minute, life-altering event was recorded on store cameras.
Joe and Angel fled back to Denver's easier streets, but Joe said he "knew what time it was," and that he'd get caught. He'd dropped a sweatshirt while fleeing the robbery. When he was picked up on a drug offense back in Denver months later, they matched his DNA, and Wisconsin extradited him on a warrant.
That was in January. Since then, Angel's most frequent male company is a troubled addict named Tim, who sometimes offers a motel room bought with his disability check. But the room comes with Tim's temper and demands for drugs.
When she stays at her loading dock shelter, Angel unpacks and repacks plastic shopping bags filled with dirty snow pants, worn ski caps, half-empty bottles of lotion, food wrappers.
Angel's hands are gritty with street dust. Her feet are constantly peeling with eczema and blisters — one misstep into a puddle keeps her skin wet and rotting all day. She cleans up occasionally with a bath of wet wipes, or washes her hair in the sink at the needle exchange.

OAKLAND -- Warning: Segway Off Road tours through Redwood Regional Park may result in writer's block.
"Just say it's the coolest thing, mom.
Those words, from a 14-year old to his journalist mother, could be the best kid-to-parent advice ever.
Why? Because, after an insane bout of wanderlust swept this writer from a rock-solid position at a keyboard onto an off-road Segway zooming 12 mph over redwood mulch near the East Bay's Skyline Trail, that's what pops up: "It's the coolest thing."
Of course, my approach had been cerebral and full of professional questions. Was it safe? Could anyone do it, as advertised? Doesn't it hurt the environment? Won't being on a machine prevent me from communing with nature? And who's this tour guide, claiming Segways do less damage to trails than hiking boots and whose neighbors either growl or gyrate admiringly at his endeavors?
Drew Foster is a living monument to odd, unbelievable adventures. Cut out of a friend's car after a horrific accident as a young adult, he spent six months in rehab. After that, it was cliff jumping, despite ongoing back pain. Eventually, depressed and out of shape, he discovered Segways, the two-wheeled, self-balancing mobility devices invented by Dean Kamen in 2001.
A street model provided the physical freedom he craved; a wipeout stirred his inner tinkerer. Applying a background in product development and instinctive engineering chops, Foster and Steve Steinberg designed the first off-road Segways.
"We added kickstands, wheel guards, stuff like that," Foster tells my son, three other braver-than-me participants on the tour and me.
Allen Hayes, age 67, and longtime partner Jenn Varno, age 45, are from Palo Alto. They work separately, but both are in the marketing/branding/design industry.
"We like to try anything we can think of," Hayes says. "If you're alive, why wouldn't you want to try everything on the horizon?
And Varno has. She's muscled through annual swims from Alcatraz and fly fishing in Mammoth Lake. Even her reasons for signing up are sturdy.
"I've seen a guy in our neighborhood doing it, and he looks too serious. Riding in the dirt seems more natural.
With David Luu, a 30-year old software tester at Shutterfly, we represent a six-decade span of years and a hodgepodge of body types.
"Anyone can do this," Foster insists, addressing the first of my questions.
After watching a 15-minute safety video showing Segway errors with such clear, graphic simplicity we want to rename it "the anxiety increaser," we sign accident-waiver forms.
Outside, Foster gives slow, explicit, private instruction. For the first time, I start to feel comfortable. We're not in the hands of a bungee-loving lunatic: We are students of a master teacher.
Within 30 minutes, we've moved from barely able-to-get-on novices to a lean, (and leaning, for that is how the gyroscopic genius embedded under our feet determines acceleration, braking and balance) mean, rolling team. But we're not mean, we're wearing Foster's "Segway smiles" and cheerily hollering, "car!" and "pothole!" and "rocks!" to keep our single-file line safe from oncoming hazards.
Remarkably, the thrill isn't limited to how wonderful it is to cruise dexterously under 150-foot redwoods. There are sweeping views of San Francisco Bay, where one can see beyond the Golden Gate Bridge to the Farallon Islands or south to San Jose. And there's Foster's running diatribe about the Oakland hills cultural and environmental history, delivered with obvious eco-worshiping attitude.
"Do you know what this is? It's a fairy ring," he says, sweeping his arm full-circle to indicate a bare spot amid a grove of redwoods. "These trees have balance, with the smallest pine cone resulting in the largest trees. I also say they're conscious and have memories.
Foster said trees don't vote, but if they did, they'd vote for preservation of California's state parks. He said Segways, with their 10-cents-for-19-miles electrical charge capacity, are "naturally landscape friendly. If there's one law he'd like to change, it's Segway's current restriction to motorized routes.
"They do less damage than a bike," he protests.
An off-road Segway is pricey: about $7,000. And a custom Segway he built for a paraplegic client is likely more, but seems dirt-cheap after he describes the man's expression when it was complete.
"It's the first time he ever 'walked' on Stinson Beach under his own power. The look on his face was like a sunrise," Foster recalls.
Hayes says he'll return to the park again. Varno makes dinner reservations at the Montclair restaurant where the team refreshed and the Segway's recharged. Luu is silent, but smiling.
I'm with my son, sharing a redwood memory and thinking, "It's the coolest thing ever."

Rochester's Barb DeHart is quick to sidestep the title "photographer," but that doesn't mean she won't capture your eye.
DeHart is a retired business owner. She had a company that manufactured equipment for the electronics industry for three decades in Burlington, Mass. She retired to Rochester, Vt., and following the death of her husband in 1999 began investing more time in traveling.
"The photography sort of came along secondary," says DeHart, who with little more than a basic point-and-shoot camera captured penguins on the Falkland Islands of Antarctica, polar bears in the Arctic Circle in Norway and on the Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Canada, and brown Kodiak bears and cubs in Alaska.
DeHart brought the images of never-seen-in-Vermont, frolicking wildlife home, printed them and hung them on her wall.
Friends took one look and encouraged her to do more with the stunning images.
Last fall, some of her works were part of the Middlebury Arts Walk.
Still DeHart downplays them.
"I'm not a professional at all. My byline is 'Photos for Fun.' It's just to make people smile," she says self-consciously.
Her nerves stem from presenting her works for the first time in a gallery show. Beginning Wednesday afternoon, DeHart's images of penguins, polar bears and Kodiak cubs will be in the Gifford Medical Center art gallery in Randolph.
The show runs two months, until March 26, and is free and open to the public.
"It's kind of overwhelming," says DeHart, who in her regular life is a Rochester Budget and Finance Committee member, chairwoman of the Trustees of Public Funds and a justice of the peace.
Going forward, DeHart will continue to travel. She has a trip planned that will mean seeing more polar bears. And she will continue to take photos.
"It's become a new hobby. Maybe it will become an avocation. But it's been fun," DeHart says.
Join the fun. See her show "Penguins, Polar Bears and Kodiak Cubs" from Jan. 29-March 26 at Gifford. The gallery is located just inside the hospital's main entrance at 44 S. Main St. (Route 12) in Randolph. Call Gifford at (802) 728-7000 or Volunteer Coordinator Julie Fischer at (802) 728-2324 for more information.

your location leaves you with options to surf where there is less people. i'm sure you know a few.
Surfing lincoln on a sunday in the summer can drive you nuts and can ruin your surf. It's a magnet for the inexperienced and people spoiling for a confrontation. the place is crowded even before the lifeguards go on duty and shut down the other beaches to surfing, while nearby beaches go unridden. granted it can break better than some of the other beaches but not that much better.
what would you rather do surf a very congested good spot or a uncrowded spot almost as good?
Jul 16, 2012, 02:40 PM #23
I'm so glad CB is not as over-crowded as other spots on the East Coast. Line-ups? Please - I cut off all the Wilmington "day surfers." If you pay beach tax, you have the right of way.
Jul 16, 2012, 05:08 PM #24
I also don't like the vibes at some other places in Long Beach. I don't like localism and it ruins sessions for me when I see someone else's session ruined because some locals don't think he surfs as well as them and tell him to "go home."
So those are some reasons I choose Lincoln of the spots at Long Beach, and a reason why on this particular day I chose Lincoln over Hemlock.
summer crowds don't owe you anything. lol.

All beaches are set up differently. My spot is in a more residential area with minimal parking for non-locals. I see the same people almost every day. My spot is in front of my house and I have surfed the same spot for over 13 years. The moment we have better than average waves, everyone and their grandmother paddle out. I hate paddling out and surfing with some Raleigh dude who rides for "Team Salt Life."
I have my opinion and you do too. Respect mine and I will respect yours. Don't surf my spot.
***I added the following, hence the EDIT***
Going back to the first comment of the thread - In addition to not wanting to see anyone injure themselves, or others while surfing; I do not endorse fighting in the ocean at all. I can hate on out-of-towners and others all day, but I would never intentionally hurt another or start a fight. It's the ocean, not a boxing ring.
NC does not have the federal/state funding like our northern states. The town of CB is extremely small and every tax dollar counts. Come September CB turns into a ghost town; yet, it is up to the locals to preserve our town for the summer crowd. Locals support smaller economies, so families have a nice place to visit year after year. Who is going to pay for the costly hurricane damages? Not Raleigh Who is going to keep local restaurants running during the slow season? Not tourist.
As for my last post: I don't drop in on anyone - it was a joke.

I have a confession to make: I've been holding out on you.
When I shared my
ideal scarf yarns
with you last week, I intentionally omitted one of the nicest angora yarns on the market today.
That's because Louisa Harding's Kimono Angora is so delicate and vibrant it deserves a solo spot on center stage. Join me this week as we see how it knits up, how it wears, and—because it's angora—
how likely it is to make everybody within a 100-foot radius sneeze

'Game of Thrones' Season Finale: After the Red Wedding
In tonight's season finale of "Game of Thrones," the Red Wedding's ripples drifted beyond the bloodstained stone floor of The Twins to the edges of Westeros. The repercussions are yet to be felt beyond shock, horror and glee. But the Red Wedding broke the rules and someone will pay the price. Tonight it happened to be a Frey bannerman sitting by a fire. Arya has toed the line for two seasons, but now she's a killer. Fortunately for her the Hound may be a better teacher than either Syrio Forel or Jaqen H'ghar.
South in Kings Landing, Tywin Lannister revealed he had a (Kings) hand in the wedding massacre. He gave a good speech to Tyrion justifying the murders. Talk of "family" and "preserving [his] line." He also let it slip that when Tyrion was born he contemplated drowning his son in the sea.
Another award for Father of the Year could be handed to Balon Greyjoy for the heartfelt way he reacted to seeing his son's "favorite toy" in the bottom of a box. Between Tywin, Balon, Craster, Stannis and Roose Bolton – whose bastard son Ramsay is revealed as Theon's season-long torturer – this was a season filled with bad fathers and the many twisted and malformed offspring they've sired.
Wrapping things up: Jon returned to the wall but with facial scars and three arrows stuck in his hide (my wife has threatened to "pull a Ygritte" should I ever make her mad enough). Bran passed through the wall, a magical being off into a magical land. Dany freed more slaves. Jamie made it home. Stannis will raise a new army to save the north. And we have to wait another year to see what happens.
Well, technically I know some of what happens. I've read "A Storm of Swords." I'm now attempting to finish "A Feast for Crows." Gotta' love Dorne…
What did you think of the season finale? We want to hear from you. Leave your thoughts in the comments.

The Ohio Reading and Mathematics Achievement Tests are annual assessments that measure how well students have learned the reading and math concepts taught in grades 3 - 8. The achievement tests are designed specifically for Ohio students and are based on Ohios academic content standards. They do not test a childs intelligence or aptitude and are not meant to compare childrens abilities.The federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001(NCLB) requires all states to establish academic standards that tell what students should know and be able to do in reading and math at the end of each grade. NCLB also requires states to test all students in grades 3 8 annually in reading and math to assess how well students are meeting the academic content standards. The results of the tests are used to identify districts, schools and students that may require additional resources to meet state academic standards.

Your home on the Mac, Finder gives you lots of options for locating, displaying and organizing all your files and folders. From the power of Spotlight search technology to the flexibility of customizable item views, Mac OS X Finder truly shows your Mac at a glance.

The Finder is still at version 10.4.7 (even under OS X 10.4.10)
As a recent convert from Redmond to Cupertino, I founf the Finder clumsy and counter-intuitive after using the Windows Explorer. Path Finder and Macintosh Explorer are much easier to use IMHO. But then change can be vexing, so maybe it's just me, but I only use it to launch apps. Everything else I use the others.
Path Finder is a decent alternative for those who detest the Finder.
Is the Finder at 10.4.9? Mine's still says it's 10.4.7.
Man... after a year with Tiger's Finder I am already craving a replacement. For starters, a program that was actually good at finding things would be nice.
Finder is a legacy software. I just moved from Linux to OS X, and I can honestly say what a shame it is to see an old and outdated (and not even that functional) desktop. The OS 9 desktop had more abilities! Been using a few days and already had to delete the preferences. It was nice in linux where I used Gnome and was able to customize it to a tee. Gnome + Quartz (it'lll never happen though), that would be a dream.
Finder is a program. About this Mac shows the Operating System version.
some alternatives listed here:
Over the years, the Mac OS X Finder has gained a well-deserved reputation as the least pleasing bundled Mac OS X application. It has been called the most widely used piece of abandonware on the Mac platform. While some people like it, few love it, and many hate it.
Quoted from the original FTFFer here.
"It's not freeware if you have to pay for the OS even if the OS price is rolled into the cost of a new computer."
So you think "Commercial with demo" fits better?
Freeware is IMHO the closest match as it's free with OS X in the sense that IE and WMP is free with Windows...
"latest version should also be 10.4.7"
My finder still says 10.4.6 even though "About this Mac" says 10.4.7.
"This entry is silly."
Naw... really?

"This ought to be information that is left out front, where anybody who can walk in can see it, because it's public information," said Parker, surrounded by stacks of documents at her home only a few houses down from the school district's county office on Brookhaven Drive in Aiken.
Her latest mission is submitting Freedom of Information Act requests to the Aiken County Public School District. She wanted to know the salaries of district and school administrators.
"Deputy superintendent is making $112,000. Principal is making $94,000," she said, reading from the list.
She says that list is troubling her. Some principals make around $80,000 to $90,000. Many assistant principals rake in over $60,000, and in a lot of schools, there's more than one. North Augusta High School has four.
However, it's the salary of Superintendent Dr. Elizabeth Everitt that has Parker most upset.
"$167,000," read Parker from the FOIA response. "All those salaries are corporate salaries. They are not tax-based salaries. It's wrong. It is definitely wrong."
The South Carolina Budget and Control Board website shows that Everitt's salary of $167,821 is actually larger than the $106,078 salary paid to South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley.
However, other documents from the South Carolina Department of Education show that Everitt's salary is generally in line with other district superintendents, but Parker's not convinced.
"Taxpayers in Aiken County cannot support the lifestyle that these salaries afford," Parker said.
The school board just approved another 4.2 mill increase. Last year, they increased millage by 9 mills.
Meanwhile, the most recent state report cards rate the school district as "average" with "below average" growth and again failing to meet Adequate Yearly Progress.
Parker says she just wishes administrators would take a pay cut to make the schools better.
"If they cared about the schools and children, they would," she said.
News 12 spoke with Everitt on the phone Thursday morning. She says their salaries are actually below the state average, and she says just a few years ago, administrators took 10 furlough days.
Ultimately, she says school administrators in Aiken County deserve what they get.

Ayers surprised by Moore's dismissal at App. State
Published: Monday, December 3, 2012 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 4, 2012 at 12:07 a.m.
Mike Ayers, now the dean of Southern Conference football coaches and all-time active wins leader, is trying to come to grips on how he inherited that title.
215 — Jerry Moore, Appalachian State (1989-2012)
171 — Wallace Wade, Alabama (1923-30); Duke (1931-41, 1946-50)
125 — Mike Ayers, ETSU (1985-87); Wofford (1997-present)
77 — D.C. Walker, Wake Forest (1937-50)
69 — Frank Howard, Clemson (1940-52)
69 — Dick Sheridan, Furman (1978-85)
What: Wofford (9-3) at No. 1 seed North Dakota State (11-1)
When: 3 p.m. Saturday
Where: Fargo, N.D.
Other quarterfinal games:
No. 5 seed Georgia Southern (9-3) at No. 4 seed Old Dominion (11-1)
Sam Houston State (9-3) at No. 3 seed Montana State (11-1)
Illinois State (9-3) at No. 2 seed Eastern Washington (10-2)
His good friend Jerry Moore was fired Sunday by Appalachian State after 24 seasons and 215 victories. Moore, 73, was let go after a first-round playoff loss that came on the heels of a three-way share of the Southern Conference championship with Wofford and Georgia Southern.
Moore guided the Mountaineers to 10 conference championships and 18 postseason appearances. Appalachian State won an unprecedented three straight FCS/I-AA national titles from 2005-07. With 242 overall wins as a Division I head coach, he moved this season past such legendary names as Woody Hayes of Ohio State and Bo Schembechler of Michigan. ASU had only one losing season (1993) under Moore, won at least 10 games from 2005-2010 and went 8-4 in each of the past two years.
"It's still hard for me to get my mind around the fact that I won't see him across the field on the other sideline anymore," said Ayers, who is in his 25th season at Wofford and has the Terriers in the national quarterfinals this week with a 3 p.m. game Saturday at No. 1 North Dakota State.
Moore was apparently told at the end of last season by Appalachian State athletic director Charlie Cobb and supposedly agreed that 2012 would be the end. But Moore evidently either changed his mind or never actually was all in on that plan. He wanted to return for one more season and leave after his 25th.
Following Saturday's overtime loss at home against Illinois State, Moore told the Winston-Salem Journal: "I haven't thought about anything but coming back." Sunday morning, in a meeting with Cobb, Moore said he wanted to coach one more season but was denied. He called a team meeting to tell the players.
"It was emotional," ASU quarterback Jamal Jackson told the paper. "It was a surprise to me. We didn't see it coming. He was a great coach."
Cobb told the paper he did not consider Moore's dismissal a firing, but that "It's just time."
Meanwhile, the story has also hit hard with Ayers, who has become close friends with Moore. They have spent time together away from the football fields.
"We developed a mutual respect for each other," Ayers said. "We started talking at coaches conventions and we just became friends. … He's an unbelievable human being. He's a great person, a tremendous leader and a community guy. And he's all about the kids, helping them grow and become men. He changed a lot of lives. He's a special guy."
Ayers said that he was not aware that this was supposed to be Moore's farewell season.
"We never talked about that kind of stuff," Ayers said. "When we've had time for fellowship and to be together with our wives, it's not about football. We talk about grandkids and a lot of different things, but never about football or the business."
About a decade ago, Ayers, who served in the Marines, was given by Moore a book called "Semper Fi: The Psalms of Robert Alexander." It's a devotional biography of inspirational writings of a terminally ill former Marine within the context of spiritual and physical events. The book is still on Ayers' desk.
"There is an inscription from Jerry on the inside," Ayers said. "He gave me some advice and explained how he used the book. That became my daily deal. The basic message was that you can be as competitive as you can — for us, it's on Saturdays — but ultimately, we all need to care for one another."

Top Performance #9: Johnathan Jordan's Double-Double at Lamar
It was an up-and-down season for the Texas A&M – Corpus Christi men's basketball team. But when the team faced its biggest must-win game of the season, its best player came up with a huge performance.
On Jan. 12, the Islanders carried a long winless streak into a road matchup with Lamar, a team that had endured an equally tough season on the court. But A&M-Corpus Christi got a huge performance from sophomore Johnathan Jordan to jump out to an early lead and hold on for the 62-56 win.
The Islanders connected on 12 field goals in the first half, one scored by Jordan and nine others being assisted on by the Houston native. He went on to match the school record with 11 assists in the game against four turnovers while also posting three steals. He also grabbed five rebounds and led the team with 15 points, giving him his first career double-double – the first of three he would record on the season.
Jordan finished the season with a school-record 159 assists, smashing his previous record of 138 by over 15 percent. He was awarded Southland Conference Honorable Mention for his efforts on the year.
See below for a video of all 11 of Jordan's assists and all four field goals from the Lamar game.

There are 13 deaths from heat-related fires last year. Those are deaths caused by home heaters. Fire and Insurance Commissioner John Oxendine is trying to get that number down. He tours cities like Augusta, urging residents to take precautions while heating their homes.
In 2004 there were 135 fire-related deaths in Georgia. Of those, 13 were caused by space heaters. Interim Fire Chief Howard Willis says heating deaths can be prevented.
"A lot of it's commonsense, a lot of it is accidental," Willis said.
Fire and Insurance Commissioner John Oxendine is here in Augusta on his annual heating tour, a tour he started two years ago, and is helping to bring fire deaths down.
"We started in 2003 and in 2004 we saw approximately a 50% reduction in heating deaths," Oxendine said.
Oxendine says when using electric heaters or kerosene heaters, only use those with the underwriter's laboratory label. And use only those with a three-prong plug. And lastly, use common sense.
"We've actually had people put space heaters in chairs, on pieces of furniture because if you elevate it get the heat closer to your face and it makes you feel good. It's very very dangerous to do that," Oxendine said.
It is also very dangerous to fall asleep with a space heater on.
"Don't ever use it overnight when you are sleeping because the fuel levels in the kerosene heaters will get down. It'll burn up all oxygen levels in the house," Willis said.
Bottom line: space heaters are safe when used properly.
"We encourage people when using products like this to have someone attend to them at all times," Willis said.
For more advice on safe heating, visit the Georgia Insurance Commissioner's website.
Also, John Oxendine's office will provide free smoke detectors to people who need one and can't afford one.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- For the past several months, you've seen Richard Roundtree's mantra: one dream, one team. News 12 sat down with the Roundtree family, who says that dream goes way back.
Roundtree's father, Bobby Roundtree, said, "We feel good about it, especially if our son can be the first one to do it."
Little nerves for Bobby Roundtree as his son looks to make history and become the county's first African-American sheriff.
"I think he's a little nervous, you know, because this is a big election," he said.
With all of the election shuffle going on outside, inside the Roundtree home, it's tranquil, it's home.
Roundtree's mother, Rosa, said, "We as parents know how good your children are, whether they are bad kids or they are good kids and I think he was raised to be a good kid."
Bobby Roundtree said, "Ever since he got into law enforcement, something he loved, this has been a dream for a while."
Richard Roundtree told News 12, "Ever since I was growing up, my parents have always supported everything that I have done. They never discouraged me from anything."
As his fliers dot the streets, family photos fill the walls of the Roundtree's.
Bobby Roundtree said, "We'll be happy and proud of him but as parents we'll still be the same."
So, as Roundtree is in the home stretch, a few words from home: "He knows to keep God first, whatever he does," Rosa said.
Bobby said, "Good luck son, bring home the victory."

Get Inverted: What I Learned by Turning My Yoga Practice Upside-Down
When I first saw the notice for the inversions workshop, I was excited. But after I signed up and paid, I was nervous. When the day arrived and I was warming up on my mat, I was terrified! What if I was the worst one there? What if I fell on my face? What if I fell on my neighbor? So many fears.
I may very well have been the worst one there, but I did not fall on my face, nor did I fall on my neighbor. What I did do was find the strength to push myself further than I'd gone before.

AUSTIN (December 20, 2012)—The State Budget Crisis Task Force, a national group examining state finances, says Texas' budget is in better shape than budgets in many other states, but population growth and other challenges loom.
The task force was formed last year and is examining budgets in Texas, California, Illinois, New Jersey, New York and Virginia.
The task force said in a statement Thursday that it credited the state for "a culture of sound fiscal management and transparency."
The task force also points to strong cash reserves.
The state Rainy Day Fund balance has topped $8 billion.
Although the challenges Texas faces aren't as severe as those faced by lawmakers in other state, the Legislature next year will confront spiraling healthcare costs and calls for more investment in water and roads.

The longest continuous operating farmers markets in east Tennessee will open for the season on Friday, April 11 in Knoxville, and Saturday, April 12 in Oak Ridge. The second Knoxville market location will open on Wednesday, April 16.
"After a long winter, it's always a welcome sign of spring when the farmers markets open and we see the first of the spring harvest coming in," says Steve Colvin, President of the East Tennessee Farmers Association for Retail Marketing (FARM). "We're hoping the final cold snaps won't take too much of a toll on the early crops."
FARM operates markets on Fridays from 3:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. in the parking lot of the Laurel Church of Christ, 3457 Kingston Pike at Cherokee Boulevard. On Wednesdays, the FARM Market operates at Ebenezer United Methodist Church, 1001 Ebenezer Road near Westland Avenue. The Saturday market is held from 8:00 a.m. until noon in the parking lot adjacent to historic Jackson Square in Oak Ridge.
"In June we will be moving the Laurel market just a couple miles west to the campus of Lakeshore Park," says Colvin. "We have been working with the city of Knoxville to make this move and envision an early June start in the new location. We will working to make sure customers know when the move takes place."
Early spring produce typically includes lettuce, broccoli, garlic, carrots, onions, radishes alfalfa sprouts and asparagus. Farm fresh eggs are expected from a few farmers at the market.
Growers are also expected to offer a variety of plants for home gardening and landscaping. Fresh baked goods such as artisan breads, granola, muffins, cookies and scones will also be available from local bakers.
Established in 1976, FARM markets run from mid April through late November. For more information visit online at www.easttnfarmmarkets.org <http://www.easttnfarmmarkets.org/> .

Why don't you follow the softmod any wii guide? It also links to this. Maybe that'd help...
Wii 4.2U HBC installed. I'm trying to install bootmii as IOS so I can back up nand but freezes at scam screen (the wiimote disconnect when 1 appears) using bannerbomb v2
IOS36 is 65555 cioscorped i think
I tried to follow this
but I get error installing
So what to do to install bootmii and backup nand?
tried following that but the letterbomb won't appear. I tried to search for it in previous dates but nada.
copied the private folder created by letterbomb and Wilbrand GUI.exe but there is no exploit envelop .

Letterbomb doesnt work with 4.2. You have to use bannerbomb v2. Are you sure you are reading the Softmod ANY Wii Guide? It tells you what exploit to use for your system menu version...
tried installing IOS36-64-v1042.wad but het the error
Opening "IOS36-64-v1042.wad", please wait OK
Installing wad
installing title...
installing ticket...

try ahbprot or an Ios with the correct permission.
I was trying this
E) If you are unable to run Wilbrand GUI form a PC, you can use letterbomb found @ LetterBomb
Letterbomb is only setup to server 4.3 system menu's but works the same as wilbrand. Only copy the \private folder to sd:\
from this http://www.wiihacks.com/recommended-...am-freeze.html
I think the prob is the cioscorped IOS36 its preventing the hackmii installer from continuing...
I followed this http://www.wiihacks.com/recommended-...am-freeze.html but wilbrand spat an error. tried wilbrand v8. copied the private folder to the casper hackmiifix in my SD

"The spider's web: She finds an innocuous corner in which to spin her web. The longer the web takes, the more fabulous its construction. She has no need to chase. She sits quietly, her patience a consummate force; she waits for her prey to come to her on their own, and then she ensnares them, injects them with venom, rendering them unable to escape. Spiders – so needed and yet so misunderstood."
Elizabethtown High School freshman Clayton Roederer has big dreams that are created from his own imagination.
He plans on not only developing his own comic book based on characters he has developed but also hopes to produce a television show from puppets he has designed.
Roederer began showing a talent for drawing at a young age.

DENVER, Colorado - The bids poured into the USA Pro Challenge downtown Denver headquarters Friday as communities across Colorado bid for a coveted slot as host of next year's race.
At least 19 communities submitted bids to host the third annual weeklong race, including 10 of last year's 12 hosts.
The Vail Valley submitted two bids, hoping for a finish at Beaver Creek - like this year - and a time trial up Vail Pass, like 2011.
The Vail Valley Foundation's first hope is for the time trial.
"One of the most important aspects in hosting a race like this is the TV exposure. Essentially you are looking for that commercial about your host city and as long as your city is on camera the longer that commercial is," said Adam Lueck, manager of operations for the foundation. "In last year's time trial, Vail was on camera from the minute the race started to the minute it ended and that's a very important piece for us."

holy wowza those look delicious! they look like they could give the vcon bean balls a run for their money!
I'm sort of on a maple kick lately, so these would be perfect! Is there anything I can use instead of the wheat gluten?
I've been promising myself to finally give tempeh another try... these look delicious!
COOL!!! I'm serious continent envy right now, holed up in France. Thank goodness I smuggled my own Canadian maple syrup stash in with me, eh?
That's so neat! I wish we lived somewhere that did maple syrup. Sounds like a fun day :)
Can I leave out the gluten or substitute something else? I am gluten-intolerant.
Mmm, these sound great! I think this would be a good way to start eating tempeh too.
why do i suddenly feel bad for the trees?
oh wow, those look SO SO good...i am definitely making these as soon as i buy some more tempeh!
These look amazing. Maple always adds so much to food. Yum!
I love this recipe, but I'm not sure exactly how to go about it. How do you grate tempeh?
The Sugar Shack sounds like some kind of awesome nightclub/lounge...but I think a House O' Maple Syrup sounds amazing! I'm sorta jealous that stuff doesn't grow on trees in Memphis.
Sounds so tasty and wonderful!
Those Maple Tempeh Balls look so delicious! How much fun to make taffy too. I bet the kids had a blast. Growing up my best friend who lived next door to us, when her mom would go visit family in Canada, she would always bring back a big block of maple sugar and set it out on the counter for us to snack on until it was gone. It would usually last a week or so with everyone digging into it. Oh memories!
Beautiful snow pics!
Maple and Garlic and "meat" balls? Cool! :)
This is my favorite tempeh recipe yet. We loved the sweet/savory combination. The maple syrup added a wonderful richness.
We didn't add any extra salt, just what was in the Montreal Steak Seasoning. The double-black soy sauce provided enough salt otherwise.
We also found it was easier to microwave the sauce in a large Pyrex measuring cup and then add it to the tempeh balls. That way we didn't have to saute the tempeh balls, remove the tempeh balls from the skillet, cook the sauce in the skillet, and then return the tempeh balls.
All in all, an absolute, unqualified hit! Definitely will make this again.
What is Montreal Steak spice???? Can you give us an alternative that might be easier to find?
I tried your tempeh balls before, I think the Swedish ones and found that the middle doesn't cook, so I am looking forward to trying these.
Looks fantastic, but what is Montreal Steak Spice? Do you know of a substitute for it? Thanks.
I remember sugar shacks from my days in Montreal! They were great except the only part of the meal that I wanted to eat was the maple syrup.
Just tried the meatballs. A great recipe, thanks. I used ordinary porridge oats and it was pleasantly grainy. I'm not sure the simmering/marinade step made much difference to the flavour... I wonder if the tempeh we get here is softer than yours as there was no way it was grateable - it turned extremely crumbly when boiled.
This sounds remarkably delicious, sort of like a cocktail snack my mom used to make when I was young. I love maple for its mapleness - that woodsy, almost smoky tone - not just for its sweetness. Forgive the dumb Yankee comment but, gosh that's a lot of late-March snow on the ground! When do you expect to see green in Ontario?
I hope I am addressing everyone's questions here:
1. Not sure about a gluten substitute--it hekps hold evrything together. Perhaps some extra cornstarch, or breadcrumbs to hold everything together. I think the balls will end of being more delicate, but still tasty.
2. Montreal Steak Spice is a pre-mix sold by McCormick's--usually used to season steaks (what?). It's not neccessary, but a nice touch.
3. Simmering and grating: I grate the tempeh with a cheese grater. I boil it first because it takes away some of the unique taste tempeh has (and which my kids don't really care for). Simmering the balls in the sauce helps firm them up a hit, and gives the balls a nice coating of sauce.
4. Snow: We are getting rain now and the snow is receding. There is still a good foot in the backyard, but I think it will all be gone soon.
What type of vital wheat gluten do you use? I find the one I am using is giving things a funny taste and makes everything taste the same
I get my gluten from the local bulk food store . . . so I'm not sure what brand it is.
mmmm these look like veganized takoyaki (japanese fried balls made out of octopus), which I used to love in Japan. I wonder what could be added for that octopus-type flavor? Maybe nothing, maybe it's all about the sauce toppings!
Thanks for this! Consider it bookmarked!
That food is fantastic! I've gotta try those.
I made these and they completely fell apart :(
Oh, boo! Try adding breadcrumbs, or something that will help them stick more. Also, make sure you fry them long enough so they firm up.
they stuck together and were so good fried up but 1) they soaked up SO much oil 2) as soon as I put them in sauce they disintegrated.
I made these for a vegetarian engagement party, and they were a HUGE hit! Absolutely delicious. I added a little extra gluten to give them a meatier texture, and I only cooked them in the pan about 5 minutes to brown the outsides, and then baked at 350 for about 15 to firm them up a bit more. They held up to the sauce perfectly and even stood up to toothpicks for serving. Thank you!!!

Using the ubuntu network manager I set my wired connection IPV4 Settings to "Shared with other computers", the gui method listed here
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Inter ... ionSharing
The problem is that this simple gui method doesn't support upnp, so when ever I turn on my ps3 I have to enter this command into the terminal.
sudo upnpd ra0 eth0
Is there anyway I can automate this? Anyway to setup my iptables so this is done automatically as soon soon as my ps3 connects through my ubuntu pc?

The boat launch facilities at Cave Rock and Sand Harbor are closing on both Christmas day and New Year's Day. No inspections or decontaminations will be available either of these days.
These closures are due to the holidays and program staff shortages. Normal operating hours throughout the winter are 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily at Cave Rock, and 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays at Sand Harbor. Efforts are underway to adjust and extend these hours to better accommodate fishermen.
Watercraft inspectors for the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency Boat Inspection Program are provided by the Tahoe Resource Conservation District. This program is critical in protecting Lake Tahoe from the threat of aquatic invasive species such as quagga and zebra mussels.

The OHCHR Country Office in Togo was established in November 2006 to help build national capacities to protect human rights. Since then, it has been providing assistance to the Government in designing policies to comply with international obligations and to ensure accountability for past abuses. The Office was established following major political violence and human rights violations in the context of the 2005 presidential elections. The political leaders signed a General Peace Agreement (APG) on 20 August 2006 which provides for, inter alia, the adoption of measures for the promotion and protection of human rights, as well as the establishment of the Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commission. The Office has been actively supporting the implementation of the agreement. More ...
