Clavis pharma licences thyroid cancer compound
Oslo – Clavis Pharma ASA has signed a licensing deal with US firm Translational Therapeutics, Inc., for the development and commercialization of CP-4033, a patented Lipid Vector Technology (LVT) derivative of ribavirin under preclinical development at Clavis. Under the terms of the agreement, Translational Therapeutics will be responsible for all future development of the drug formulation, which targets the eIF4E oncogene, as a treatment of aggressive thyroid cancer. Additionally, Translational Therapeutics has the option to evaluate the formulation's potential in other solid tumour indications. Clavis Pharma will receive a minority equity stake in Translational Therapeutics and potential future milestone and royalty payments. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed. Preclinical studies with CP-4033 conducted by Translational Therapeutics suggest that CP-4033 may be even more effective than ribavirin at inhibiting eIF4E's oncogenic activities. Elevated elF4E activity is believed to play a role in about 30% of human cancers.

A scuffle between an Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper and a fugitive ended Friday morning when the latter's portable meth lab exploded in his pants.
According to the incident report, the passenger of an SUV stopped for speeding took off after the trooper inquired about a chemical smell emanating from his pants. The trooper eventually caught up with 54-year-old Davis Williams, and the two began to tussle.
"After a brief struggle it was determined there was an active meth lab in his pants that burst during the struggle and got all over his body," trooper Shiloh Hall told News on 6.
Williams received medical attention at the scene before being transported to the Okmulgee County jail.

USC draws first blood, blanks rival Clemson 6-0
Published: Friday, March 1, 2013 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, March 2, 2013 at 12:16 a.m.
CLEMSON — What was once by far the most tightly contested sport between the heated rivals and one of the more highly-anticipated matchups in collegiate baseball continued to remain decidedly one-sided Friday evening.
Game 2
At Fluor Field in Greenville
USC (7-1) vs. Clemson (5-3), 2:15 today, Ch. 40
Starting pitchers: USC: Right-hander Colby Holmes (1-0, 1.46 ERA); Clemson: Right-hander Clate Schmidt (1-0, 0.00 ERA)
By no means does No. 7 South Carolina require any charity from hated Clemson, but the Tigers were plenty generous in once again getting totally outplayed in a 6-0 Gamecocks victory that opened a three-game series.
USC, which mustered only five hits, has now won six of the last seven against Clemson, 9 of 11 and 20 of the last 30 in the series.
Being treated to five unearned runs is an embarrassment of riches when you've got sophomore Jordan Montgomery dealing at the top of his game as the 6-foot-4 lefty, whose father is a Clemson grad, was a towering presence in expanding his team's dominance over the Tigers.
"We played a clean game and Jordan Montgomery was the story with an incredible performance," USC coach Chad Holbrook said. "Jordan's got a great changeup and he was able to pitch inside and the velocity on his fastball was very good. He had better command than he'd had his previous two starts and when he's ahead in the count he's awfully tough."
Montgomery allowed three hits in eight innings while striking out a career-high nine and walking only two. Tyler Webb set down Clemson in order in the ninth. The Tigers failed to have a runner reach third base.
"I threw a lot of first-pitch strikes and got my cutter over and I was spotting my fastball pretty good in and out and mixing a changeup in there every now and then. I was just throwing my game," Montgomery said. "It's always good to get a series off on a start like this."
The big lefty was not only nearly unhittable, but resilient as well as he picked up a second wind after Clemson put the opening two batters on base in the seventh trailing 4-0. Holbrook decided to stick with Montgomery who responded by inducing six consecutive routine pop-outs to end his evening in style.
"When a guy is throwing a good, hard fastball with a high plane you've got to get on top of the baseball because you may think you're swinging level, but you're getting the bottom half of it," Clemson coach Jack Leggett said. "Montgomery pitched exceptionally well and didn't give us much. We didn't hit enough ground balls and struck out too much."
Holbrook called Montgomery's ability to remain unscathed in the seventh the biggest inning of the game.
"He's an unflappable kid and doesn't mind the tight moments and pitching with runners in scoring position. He's a heck of a competitor and the bigger the situation Jordan tends to pitch better. He got us out of that jam there and I think we all took a deep breath after that inning and felt we were in control of the game."
Sophomore Daniel Gossett (Byrnes) did his best to match Montgomery's brilliance and until losing some accuracy late was pretty darn good. He went 6 1/3 innings and allowed three hits and four runs (one earned) with four walks and four strikeouts.
"I felt good with my fastball location and changeup location," Gossett said. "It's a huge rivalry game and everybody tries to be on point. I just felt I had to come out and pitch the same type of game that I always do."
USC broke a scoreless game by scratching one home in the fifth when Brison Celek and Grayson Greiner opened with singles before being bunted over by T.J. Costen. Tanner English then hit a cue-shot to third and pinch-runner Shon Carson narrowly beat the throw home after Tanner was thrown out at first base.
"That was total instinct on his part and it wasn't anything we did as coaches," Holbrook said. "He read the ball, took off and he's a fast kid."
The play of the game followed in the bottom of the fifth when Clemson catcher Garrett Boulware missed a two-out, solo homer to left by inches as the ball ricocheted partially off Graham Saiko's glove and the top railing of the wall. Saiko recovered and threw Boulware out at third after he slid past the bag.
Clemson's Shane Kennedy dropped a routine one-out fly in the seventh before Gossett walked the bases loaded and departed in favor of Joseph Moorefield, who walked in a run, allowed a sacrifice fly and then a RBI single by LB Dantzler and that was more than Montgomery required.
"We beat a really, really good team and pitcher and I was proud to see our guys react the way they did," Holbrook said.

Adult book picks: 'Long Gone Daddies'
Published: Sunday, April 7, 2013 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 4, 2013 at 7:00 p.m.
"Long Gone Daddies: A Novel" by David Wesley Williams. All his life, Luther Gaunt has heard songs in his head — songs of sweet evil and blue ruckus, odes to ghosts, drinking hymns. In search of his past, he hits the road with his band, the Long Gone Daddies, and his grandfather's guitar, Cassie.
"A Thousand Pardons: A Novel" by Jonathan Dee. Once a privileged and loving couple, the Armsteads have reached a breaking point. Ben, a partner in a prestigious law firm, has become unpredictable at work and withdrawn at home — a change that weighs heavily on his wife, Helen, and their preteen daughter, Sara. Then, in one afternoon, Ben's recklessness takes an alarming turn, and everything the Armsteads have built together unravels.
"The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat: A Novel" by Edward Kelsey Moore. Earl's All-You-Can-Eat is home away from home for an inseparable Plainview, Ind., trio. Dubbed "the Supremes" by high school pals in the 1960s, they weather life's storms together for the next four decades. Now, during their most challenging year yet, dutiful Clarice must struggle to keep up appearances; beautiful Barbara Jean is rocked by the tragic reverberations of a youthful love affair; and fearless Odette engages in her life's most terrifying battle while contending with the idea that she has inherited more than her broad frame from her notorious mother.

Badges? what R These badges you speak of? Also I think I'm overdue for a 6 year and a 5 year and a 4 Year.
Badges? what R These badges you speak of? Also I think I'm overdue for a 6 year and a 5 year and a 4 Year.
Only if you participated in the associated appreciation events, noob.
Tarvu, been gone too long also, SEE MY UNICORN, CALL ME NOOB ONE MORE TIME, but damn sucks didn't know there were events.
Unicorns are just SUPER GAY HORSES. And yeah, I think they're listed on the badge list linked in the first post but probably are not available now. You should be able to get the 3 year badge though.
But I like gay horses " - Awarded to members whose contributions to the site and community are worthy of song and praise" yeah I found the thread a second ago .
Well thanks for the 3 year info though, doesn't look like much has changed since I've been gone though.
There's now less linguistic fascism at least.
Yup, the anniversary badges after 3rd year all had a limited window of availability, because Technophile found out what a pain in the ass verifying "post somewhere on the site" was for everyone. So now each year in March there's an anniversary thread where we give people about a month or so to qualify for that year's badge. Sorry!
Its all gravy mxy, nice to see your still here, recently got a pc so youll start seeing more of me. this is mxyzptlk is it not?
Yup! The Shark wanted us to use our real names so we can pretend to be professional and shit. Awesome to hear you'll be around more!
No, you're just prouder and more willful than sheeple like me.
But you've still got part of your user soooooooooo...
If you change the number of letters in my middle name as well as make them different letters, it spells "Mxy". So it's practically the same thing.
About 3/4 of us call you mom. Last I checked, that's 3 letters.
I should probably request the Cblog Interviews badge, and apologize profusely to Zodiac for not being on the forums ever. http://www.destructoid.com/blogs/C-B...l-213730.phtml
So like, I just started trying to do the forums thing for real this time and everyone was like "Hey, go get your fucking badges you plebeians". So I figured I'd stop by. I'm apparently supposed to have a Front Page badge (http://www.destructoid.com/promoted-...f-236114.phtml), the MAGFest badge (Dyganth/Changston others would vouch for this, also here's picture proof. I'm the incredibly awkward facepalm guy in the middle. It was my first time ever meeting Dtoiders so I was shy as fuck. http://instagram.com/p/UNEQa2Mcet/), and this may or may not count but for the createy thingy. I have a custom-made Dtoid hooded vest that I spiffed up just for Dtoid meetups. It got me almost tackled by Niero. It's this thing. http://imgur.com/XqGZR
Yeah...that's, uh. That's it. I dunno how forums work.
Hey kids and kidettes (and everyone in-between)! Been a long time since I forummed.
So, I'm here to set a new precedent in badge history. How you ask? I'll tell you.
You may not know it, but this pretty girl wasn't always so pretty. As a matter of fact, they didn't even call her a girl when they smacked her butt on her way into this beautiful world. That's right, I'm a transgender woman!
I think we all know where this is going, but it's my pleasure to spell it out for you. I'M GOING FOR THE BEARD BADGE AND THE BOOB BADGE! Oh, you want proof? Get an eyeful of this bad boy! http://imgur.com/BWEYa Badges, plz?
Also, how about a transgender pride badge? Am I asking for too much? Can't blame me for trying. Oh, and maybe I'll forum some more when I have the time, now that my internet bf Apathy is here.
Everyone wants a piece of Apathy. I feel like there's some irony in there somewhere.
Pfft. Y'all aint got shit. Me and Apathy are the official Dtoid Tag Team Champions

I've been moping around this last week complaining about not winning the lottery when it was at its record high a couple of months ago. But, here is a statistic you've probably heard before: one year after winning the lottery and one year after becoming a paraplegic, these two different people will be equally happy - with a slight edge to the paraplegic.
According to Harvard psychologist Dan Gilbert, if it happened three months ago, with few exceptions, a major traumatic incident will have no effect on your happiness.
This is because happiness is a synthetic creation of your frontal lobe. We have a "psychological immune system" that helps us change our view of the world so that we can live in it.
"Natural happiness is what we get when we get what we wanted, and synthetic happiness is what we make when we don't get what we wanted. In our society, we have a strong belief that synthetic happiness is of an inferior kind," says Gilbert.
That means if you are bummed out because you didn't get a promotion or you just went through a tough break-up, in a few days you will find you are just as happy as you would have been if you had gotten that job or hadn't gone through that break-up.
It's not universal, some people are better at creating synthetic happiness than others, but it is there in all of us. And, it's not any worse than the happiness you'd feel if everything went your way.
Some outcomes are better than others, and Gilbert doesn't disagree with that notion. Losing an arm isn't as desirable an outcome as winning a free trip to the Bahamas – and it's shouldn't be. But, when we don't get the thing we desire most, humans have this amazing ability to find happiness in what we have.
So, although I don't have much financially – and winning the lottery may have made my life easier – I'm not any less happy than I would have otherwise been.
Oh, and in case you were wondering how Gilbert feels about folks who play the lottery, here is a fun quote:
"Forgive me, for those of you who play the lottery — but economists, at least among themselves, refer to the lottery as a stupidity tax, because the odds of getting any payoff by investing your money in a lottery ticket are approximately equivalent to flushing the money directly down the toilet."
For more on synthetic happiness take a look at Dan Gilbert's TED talk online.

The student representative on the state Board of Higher Education says he will bring up a proposed contract buyout of the university system chancellor at the next board meeting.
Fargo Sen. Tony Grindberg plans to offer a floor amendment to the higher education funding bill to buy out the final two years of Hamid Shirvani's three-year contract.
Sydney Hull, the state board's student member, says he has no choice but to raise the issue after the North Dakota Student Association expressed a vote of "no confidence" in Shirvani.
Hull says, "It is obvious wherever you stand on the issue that there are problems."
University system spokeswoman Linda Donlin tells the Forum (http://bit.ly/WoAWP4) that a statement by board leaders expressing confidence in Shirvani "speaks for itself."
The board meets March 7.

News 12 First at Five / Wednesday, Dec. 12, 2012
AIKEN, S.C. -- Hatcher Funeral Home & Cremation Service in Langley is now a fortress of cameras. Funeral director and owner Ed Hatcher can even pull them up on his iPhone at home.
"One Friday night in July, someone came and broke into five air conditioners and stole one of those," he told News 12.
Overall, $25,000 worth of damage was done in only a matter of minutes and for only a couple hundred dollars worth of metal.
"It's happened to a number of places near us just in the past two months," Hatcher said.
Starting Monday, Dec. 16, things change in the Palmetto State. Scrap yards and people who sell and transport the metal will have to obey a stricter law.
"There's a lot of different issues with the new law that's really given us some ways to enforce it and to make it a better thing for the community," said Cpt. Troy Elwell with the Aiken County Sheriff's Office.
He says, right now, getting a 48-hour permit just takes a quick phone call.
"You have no way to prove that the person on the other end of the phone is the person that you're actually giving that permit number to," he said.
The new law requires someone transporting and selling metal to go directly to the Sheriff's Office of his or her county. There they must apply for a two-year permit no matter how much or how little metal they're selling.
The only exceptions are iron scrap and aluminum cans. Manhole covers and grates will also no longer be accepted.
Also, the Sheriff's Office can deny the permit if an applicant has violated the law in the past.
The law also straps down on recyclers themselves. They'll have to do more paperwork and scrapping a car without paperwork will change, too.
"That's not going to fly anymore. You're going to have to be able to prove that vehicle is your vehicle before you can scrap it, and if you can't, you're going to be held accountable or the recycle center will. One or the other," Elwell said.
They're all changes welcomed by Hatcher.
"I just think you have people that are too lazy to work for a living," Hatcher said.
Coastal Recycling says the change won't be too bad for them. Its spokeswoman actually says it should prevent stolen cars from being brought to their Aiken facility.
Again, applicants need to get a two-year permit starting Monday. Additionally, if you already have a one-year permit, you don't need to replace it until it expires.
The hours to apply for a permit at the Aiken County Sheriff's Office will change slightly. They'll be open for permits from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. At the Edgefield County Sheriff's Office, you can apply for a permit between 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. At the Barnwell County Sheriff's Office, you can apply for a permit between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Elwell says you must apply for the permit in the county you will be transporting the metal in. There is a $10 replacement fee if you lose your permit and need another one.

Folk-blues music great Tom Rush is an "outstanding" (The New York Times) singer-songwriter and gifted musician whose music has already left its stamp on generations of artists and listeners. His distinctive guitar style, wry humor and warm, expressive voice have made him both a legend and a lure to audiences around the world. A Tom Rush show means the rib-aching laughter of terrific storytelling, the sweet melancholy of ballads and the passion of gritty blues. His impact on the American music scene has been profound. He helped shape the '60s folk revival and the renaissance of the '80s & '90s. As a Harvard student playing in Cambridge in the early '60s, he introduced the world to the music of Joni Mitchell, Jackson Browne - and more of our greatest folk musicians. James Taylor tells Rolling Stone, "Tom was not only one of my early heroes, but also one of my main influences."

KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- It's unlikely any Earthquakes players will be voting for Kansas City as one of Major League Soccer's friendliest places to visit anytime soon.
Not only did the Quakes endure chilly temperatures and brisk north breezes that sent wind chills into the 20s, but they saw their losing streak here stretched to eight games in a 1-0 loss to Sporting Kansas City in front of an announced crowd of 19,368 at Sporting Park.
The Earthquakes (0-1-1) haven't won in Kansas City since 2004, when they beat the then-Wizards at Arrowhead Stadium.
"It's definitely tough to win on the road," said Earthquakes coach Mark Watson. "Teams come at you with a lot of aggression and intensity. You have to match it, and I think we did that tonight. In the end, it just wasn't quite good enough."
A penalty kick from Sporting's Dom Dwyer in the 57th minute was the only goal of the game.
The decisive play occurred during a full-on scrum in the Quakes' box, the ball ricocheting several times among a pack of players from both sides before Steven Lenhart was whistled for a hand ball by referee Ricardo Salazar. On the ensuing penalty kick, Dwyer rolled a shot past goalkeeper Jon Busch, who guessed wrong in diving to his left.
"It was quite a sloppy game," said Quakes defender Clarence Goodson, who received a yellow card for dissent following the Lenhart hand ball. "I think the field (conditions) was a carryover from the final (last December). It was difficult circumstances for both teams. But, it was definitely a hand ball."
The Earthquakes failed to mount much of an attack throughout the game, finishing with just one shot on goal, but stayed close most of the way with a series of excellent defensive plays.
In the 18th minute, a header from Sporting K.C.'s Ike Opara was headed into the San Jose goal, but Quakes midfielder Jean-Baptiste Pierazzi sprinted in and cleared the ball off the goal line.
Eight minutes later, Busch got a hand on a hard strike from Graham Zusi from 10 yards out, deflecting the shot over the goal line. Busch made his best save in the 55th minute when Zusi floated a ball to Opara inside the Quakes' six-yard box. His header was sharp, but Busch was able to get a hand on the ball and tipped it over the crossbar.
The Earthquakes' best scoring opportunity came in the 71st minute when midfielder Shea Salinas ran onto a loose ball in the K.C. area, about 10 yards out, but his hard strike missed wide left.
After a stretch where they've played four games in 12 days, the Earthquakes now have some time off before hosting the New England Revolution next Saturday.
"It's going to be great to have a full week of training," Goodson said. "That makes a world of difference."

Fender Squier Mikey Way Signature Mustang Bass Guitar - IN STOCK!
Mikey Way Mustang Bass
Fender have unleashed yet another signature guitar this year, but unlike many of the signatures they've released so far for 2012, this newbie is a bass guitar.
Designed with the input of the nimble My Chemical Romance bassist, Mikey Way, this signature model takes the classic Fender Mustang Bass to new heights. Featuring an all-new amped up design, the dazzling large flack silver sparkle finish and black racing stripes, to really set it off. Fender have scrapped the split coil pickup and replaced it with one single high output humbucker for this Mikey Way Mustang Bass.
In addition to adopting the original Mustang's shorter scale design, the Mikey Way Signature features the asymmetric waist of the Jaguar and Jazzmaster but incorporates a smaller, slimmer figure and undoubtedly one of Fenders most distinctive signature models. Fender have added Mikey Way's signature on the back of the guitar's C shaped, maple, 'black on the front' headstock.
Crafted in Indonesia with a basswood body, rosewood fretboard, vintage style tuners and single tone and volume controls, the Mikey Way Mustang Bass produces a thunderous tone despite its smaller 30" scale length. Featuring a string-through-body bridge and 4 individually adjustable saddle, 3 ply black-white-black pickguard and gloss polyester finish.
From its features alone you can see that this Mikey Way Signature Bass means business.
Take a look at the Fender Squier Mikey Way Signature Mustang Bass Guitar here.

It was a staged disaster, but a very real possibility. The scenario went like this: a newly laid-off employee working for a Savannah River Site contractor gets upset and creates a domestic terrorist situation in Aiken Counties. News 12 is on your side to show you how emergency officials across the region would keep you safe in this kind of situation.
Last July someone sent a threatening letter and suspicious powder to the president of SRS. It happened right after a round of layoffs at the site.
Aiken County started preparing for a much worse, but similar situation even before that happened.
In their practice run, a laid off employee from an SRS contractor sets off car bombs near a tanker truck carrying low grade nuclear material.
"Certainly with our layoffs at the plant, things like that could happen," said David Ruth, Emergency Management Coordinator.
Aiken County along with five other counties from South Carolina's midlands practiced their response.
"The main thing that they're working on today is a chance to work together, inner-agencies knowing how they get along," said John Legare, State Emergency Team.
This drill is one of 22 across South Carolina using $1.3 million of Homeland Security money.
In order to keep up with the times Aiken County does four disaster drills a year, the region two. But none of them are this large. It takes a lot of money and time. The people here today must spend all day and the city, county and state employees are all paid.
"With an exercise there's a little bit of artificiality that you have to overcome, but overall it's been a very challenging exercise" Ruth said.
The county's largest and most challenging exercise yet to prepare for what could happen and anything else that might.
Barnwell County was also part of this same drill involving another 250 people. As part of the same story line, the suspect from SRS ends up in Barnwell where there's a hostage and sniper situation. The review of how today's drill went will be out in early December.

Brought to you by and the .Vail official report: 0" new snowWeather: Warmer today, but air is still crisp and dry.Liftline status: Slightly larger crowd than expected at the Eagle Bahn gondola this morning. Nothing on Chair 8.Run of the day: Lost Boy should be a fun one today, says Vail local Jody Burnette. She says it's her favorite green run on the mountain.Breakdown: With plenty of sun and slightly warmer temps this morning, the freshly groomed surface was perhaps the best it's been all season between 8:30 and 9 a.m., and is likely to stay that way for longer than usual today as crowd numbers should be significantly lower than yesterday. Tommy Bryan from Oscar, La., was veryexcited about the weather today -- although they're staying at Keystone, Bryan, his son Thomas and grandson Brooks, 13, made the drive to Vail for their turns today. "It's hard not to have a smile on your face at Vail," Bryan said.Snowcast: Friday night and Saturday morning look promising for powder.

That's definitely understandable. Typically, I'm not into this kind of music. I am into this project though. When I showed Bernard he agreed with me. That's all I needed to move forward. I think they are the most polarizing group on SFR. It really does seem like people either love them or hate them. The fans on their myspace page are ravenous. The fans at their shows acted like they were superstars. It's pretty bizarre.

Thursday August 4, 2011
North Augusta, SC--When you talk Fox Creek football the conversation pretty much starts and ends with senior Marty Williams. One of the most dynamic players around is back for his senior season and is looking to take a Predator team further than they've ever been before.
A year ago Fox Creek went from doormat to a playoff team that won a game in the post season. We'd be fooling ourselves if Williams didn't get a lot of credit for the turnaround. This year though, no surprising anybody and he'll be the focus of other teams. Thus the reason others need to step up their game to take some of the heat off.
"Well, Marty is a great athlete and the good thing is we have so many other athletes who get overshadowed by him a good bit," says Coach Russ Schneider. "We expect that to happen, we're planning on that to happen and I think we'll see some other athletes who haven't been exposed as much get a little face time this year."
"Yes, really they're going to be keying on him so this opens up the chance for our other backs to get the ball and score more touchdowns and help us win. So really it's a good thing," says Quad Castleberry.
One thing their recent success has done is change the mindset of the program. They have more kids out and the effort is greater than ever. Sometimes building a winning team is tougher than maintaining it, and now Fox Creek is in the next stage. If Williams stays healthy, no telling how far this squad can go when they tee it up in a few weeks.

- good gunfor its size its actually amazing how far it goes
even though fps sucked i use it for basement skirmishes at 5-10 ft distances, and it is great!
it is actually a really good gun
please rate!
- ...yes..i have both galaxy..solid & clear..& now this baby colt.i take these babies outside.they're a pip..small hands & young shooters..will have a ball..more important..everyone will have fun with this..trademarks on this is cool..pistol has a long history..it's my fist pistol..that's where it fits..10Q..jeffer... ...
- I love itThis gun is truely awesome. It has awesome range for such a small gun. You can very easily conceal this weapon for games such as prisoner. The magazine capacity is great for a gun that isnt even as long as your hand. Besides it being a great gun and all, it is fun just to go shooting in your backyard with.
- life saverin airsoft battles, i play surrender type airsoft, not the one shot one kill.
Since this gun is so small, i tend to keep it under my sleeve for easy withdrawal, so it has saved my ass many a time when im almost surrounded. The rules are if you want to surrender you have to drop all your weapons, so i do that but while im facing the other direction to drop my weapons, i pull this baby out from under my sleeve and fire away, then i pray ill have enough time to get my weapon and my spare ammo while i run away.
- greatgood price, range, and capacity. it's a Boot gun.
good for indoor matches as well.
if you are buying a new gun u might as well add this too it's cheap and will save u when u are down to your last bb
- awesome gun!ok first off, this is a great gun me and my friends were doing a pistol fight and i had this and my beretta. i ran out of ammo with the baretta and realized that i had this gun. so i threw the other gun in a tree and went with this little puppy.
easy to conceal it has a nice clip size for such a small gun
once again HAHA logs off
- This is a great backupThis pistol is a great backup for any gun at all. My friend owns this and he uses it with his UTG Shotgun while he reloads. This thing is compact and is great for surprise attacks and holding off people while you reload alike. This is a great mini-pistol and is a great idea for anyone!
PS. I dont write any reveiws without having first hand shooting experience shooting or using the item.
- i have a silver oneits great it shoots like 150ft and like 100ft on 2gs its fun holds 15 rounds and is really tiny.i like it.
- Awesome gun guys buy this!well lets see its very cheap only $12 extremely small as in smaller than my ak'74s mags also it is suprisingly powerful and accurate for such a tiny gun. its almost as good as a much larger spring pistol, plus easy to conceal.
- Good as a double back upI like my Colt .25 and I use it as a back up to my gas M9. 15 rounds is pretty good for a tiny pistol like this one. 115 FPS isn't that good but who cares! You are only going to be using it in a CQB area, or as a back up. It fits into pockets really well. I've had mine a long time and it still works great.I love mine and so will you!

Influential DJ Jesus "Chuy" Gomez is out at KMEL-FM 106.1 after more than 20 years on the air, reports said Friday.
No reason was given for Gomez's reported firing, which apparently happened Thursday, according to KTVU. Attempts to reach the station's program director Don Parker were unsuccessful Friday. In an email statement, Parker reportedly told NBC Bay Area, "Out of respect for employee privacy we do not discuss personnel matters, but he is no longer with KMEL."
By Thursday night, Gomez's page was taken down from the KMEL website. KMEL announced in a press release Thursday that afternoon host Sana G. will take over Gomez's morning-show shift beginning Monday, Aug. 19.
Gomez was popular among Bay Area rap artists and music fans alike, and considered an influential voice for Bay Area hip-hop and R&B. He was known for lending support to a number of up and coming singers and rappers. Social media was full of messages of support for Gomez on Friday.
"Getting word KMEL let long-term DJ Chuy go ... After 20 years??? That's very wack ... He's one of the best," tweeted Davey D, a longtime local DJ and hip-hop historian. He added in another post, "Listeners develop an attachment to certain DJs. These figures are important to them ... folks grew up on Chuy."
Added famed East Bay rapper E-40, "I'm not happy about this!"
And Oakland singer Goapele tweeted her thanks to Gomez for supporting her career.
Gomez responded with gratitude to his more than 17,000 Twitter followers, and promised that more information would be forthcoming.
"Thank you for letting me be a part of your LIFE thru KMEL for 20 years," he tweeted. "On to the NEXT!!..."

Scotland's People
The taking of the Census of Scotland was provided for by the Census (Great Britain) Act 1910 for taking the Census for Great Britain in the year 1911. The Registrar General for Scotland in 1911 was James Patten MacDougall, who was knighted in 1914, supported by James C. Dunlop the Superintendent of Statistics and later his successor as Registrar General.This was the 12th census of Scotland and it was taken on the night of Sunday 2 April. In the same manner as previous censuses, enumerators were appointed to distribute household schedules within their allocated enumeration district. The completed household schedules were then used a reference to complete the enumeration books. Around 9,000 enumerators with the ability to 'write well' were appointed to carry out the Census. An enumeration district comprised an area of between 200 and 300 houses assuming that the enumerator did not have to travel more than around 15 miles visiting each house. Institutions comprising normally more than 100 people constituted its own enumeration district. The enumerators were instructed to retain as far as possible the same enumeration districts used for the 1901 census and these were approved by the Sheriff Clerks. Thus, the only changes between the enumeration districts that feature in 1901 and those that exist in 1911 are as detailed below:Enumeration district in 1911 but not 1901 Bonnybridge, StirlingEnumeration district in 1901 but not 1911 Ballahuillish and Corran of Arggour, Argyll Kilmallie, Inverness Duddingston, MidlothianAll people who were alive after midnight on the 2 April 1911 were enumerated.Persons on board boats or barges, etc., were enumerated if the vessel was within the limits of the jurisdiction of His Majesty's Customs.The police were used to help the enumerators take the census for vagrants as well as the enumeration of people who passed the night in barns, sheds, tents, etc. or in the open air.The Sheriff of Counties and Chief Magistrates were responsible for submitting enumeration books to the Registrar General, but notably they were not asked to submit the completed household schedules. It is therefore assumed that the household schedules were probably destroyed quite soon after the enumeration books had been checked and submitted to the Registrar General.This was the last census taken prior to the First World War, in which almost 150,000 Scottish men perished. There was also a worldwide influenza pandemic between 1918 and 1919 in which around 22,000 Scots died. Between the 1901 and 1911 census the male population had increased by 11.9%, but so many men died had died between the 1911 and the 1921 censuses, that the number of males in the 1921 census remained around 2.3 million. The Scottish 1911 Census has been closed for 100 years in accordance with section 38 and 58 of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002, which exempts personal Census records from disclosure until after the 100 year closure period.Differences Between the 1901 and 1911 Census information ProvidedThe 1911 Census asked additional questions, which are shown below:
Number of persons in house
Particulars as to marriage
single, married, widower or widow
duration of marriage
children born alive
children still living
Industry or service with which worker is connected
Nationality if born in a foreign country
Totally deaf or deaf and dumb
Totally blind
Imbecile or feeble mindedTechnological Advances made with the 1911 CensusMechanical tabulation was introduced in the form of Hollerith machines, which had successfully been used for the 1890 US census. The use of mechanical tabulation ensured that the Scottish Census was completed by the end of December 1913. Notably the English 1911 Census, which also used the punch card system though they took the information directly from the household schedules rather than enumeration books, was not completed until the end of December 1916.Penalties for non-completionThe following, which was taken from the www.histpop.org website, confirms that the penalty for non-completion of the census was a fine up to £5.Penalties for offences. 12. (1) If any superintendent registrar, registrar, enumerator, or other person employed under this Act, makes wilful default in the performance of any of his duties under this Act, or makes any wilfully false declaration, he shall for each offence be liable on conviction under the Summary Jurisdiction Acts to a fine not exceeding five pounds. (2) If any occupier for whom a schedule is left under this Act -- (a) wilfully refuses, or without lawful excuse neglects, to fill up or cause to be filled up the schedule to the best of his knowledge and belief, or to sign and deliver it as by this Act required; or (b) wilfully makes, signs, or delivers, or causes to be made signed, or delivered, any false return of any matter specified in the schedule; or (c) refuses to answer, or wilfully gives a false answer to, any question necessary for obtaining the information required to be obtained under this Act; he shall for each offence be liable on conviction under the Summary Jurisdiction Acts to a fine not exceeding five pounds.You can view a sample census page here.You can view a street index here.

From that classic formula things can, of course, get more inventive and Rick shares with us one of the more unusual, though still classically grounded enchiladas on Chef Ricardo Munoz-Zurita's menu: an enchilada of jamaica, or dried hibiscus flowers that tastes like a cross between pickled beets and cabbage.

Peaches gets things going in the second set before a three song segment of grade A Phish. The segment begins with a huge and exploratory David Bowie, which clocks in at 26 minutes and includes some extensive audience participation during the jam. The hauntingly beautiful Yerushalayim Shel Zahav fits naturally after the monster Bowie, and the magnificent Slave really seals the deal on this great run of songs, before moving on to some "lighter" stuff. After Poor Heart and Julius, Mike takes the lead with a couple bluegrass tunes, which I always enjoy. Adleine, YEM, and Golgi are average, but this show has already cemented itself as a 5 star show in my eyes.
Highlights- Split Open and Melt, Maze, Cavern/Lawnboy mashup, Bowie thru Slave.

I headed out to Thailand from Los Angeles for an adventure, partly to study Muay Thai and partly to find myself in a crazy place. This was one of many photos off the coast of Koh Tao in Thailand, near Koh Phangan, where I trained. A fish just happened to steal the shot.

I went to Santorini toward the end of the season last year, when most of the shops on the island started shutting down for the winter. I wanted to get a nice twilight shot of the often photographed Oia. I used the meter on the camera to expose the shots, but it was consistently darker than what I had hoped for. So for the heck of it, I just left it exposed as long as possible, and the color just took on a life of its own and the town became a beautiful model doll. October 2007

Their clash has all of the ingredients of a classic.
They are two of the most talented fighters in the junior lightweight division, they're nearing their prime, they're unbeaten, and they do not like each other.
That's what fans can hope to look forward to on Saturday night on HBO, when boxer-puncher Adrien Broner (22-0, 18 knockouts), of Cincinnati, defends his WBO belt against counter-punching Eloy Perez (23-0-2, 7 KOs), of Salinas, Calif., on Saturday night at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Mo.
Ranked No. 5 in the weight class by THE RING, the skillful Broner is a brash, cocky, trash-talking 22-year-old who scored a third-round knockout in his last fight in November against Martin Rodriguez, earning the WBO's vacant belt and ending the former titleholder's unbeaten streak at 13-0-1, with nine knockouts.
Broner also has to his credit a first-round stoppage of Jason Litzau in June, and a unanimous decision over Mexican former titleholder Daniel Ponce de Leon in March.
THE RING's No. 9-rated junior lightweight, Perez, 25, is coming off his second straight knockout, scored in the sixth round over Ira Terry in October. Prior to that, Perez scored September's impressive second-round stoppage of Daniel Jimenez, ending his run of three straight victories.
Perez, 25, has also scored a 10-round decision over Dannie Williams (21-1, 17 KOs), who has won nine consecutive fights, six of them by knockout, since falling to Perez in September of 2009.
Broner and Perez had been considered to face each other for the vacant WBO belt before Perez fought Terry, but the deal fell through.
So who wins on Saturday night?
RingTV.com sought the opinions of 12 boxing experts, the results of which are below.
Mike Coppinger, RingTV.com/USA Today
Adrien Broner KO 10 Eloy Perez: The fight will be all-action, with Eloy Perez, Adrien Broner's toughest test to date, giving him fits.
Perez can't punch, though, and Broner can. Expect Broner's power to catch up to Perez late, giving "The Problem" the KO victory.
Adrien Broner KO 9 Eloy Perez: Adrien Broner will break Eloy Perez down with his power, but a win for either man would not be a surprise. Great match-up.
Eloy Perez UD 12 Adrien Broner: I like Eloy Perez by close unanimous decision. I think he'll out-jab and outmaneuver Adrien Broner early in the bout.
Broner will probably take some middle rounds with power counter punching. But Perez will get his shots in as well, and fight smarter — and busier — down the stretch of a good fight.
Norm Frauenheim, www.15rounds.com
Eloy Perez UD 12 over Adrien Broner: Adrien Broner has all the hype and most of the power. But Eloy Perez has the experience and tactical knowhow to take Broner where he's never been.
Broner's record of quick stoppages – 10 in the first-round — is sensational. But it won't prepare him for the 12-round test he figures to encounter for the first time against the counter-punching Perez.
For Broner, this one looms as a lesson he'll be able to use in a possible rematch, which might be the only sure thing to come out of this intriguing fight for a piece of the 130-pound title.
If there is one, an older and wiser Broner figures to win. But that's a pick for another day.
Thomas Gerbasi, BoxingScene.com
Adrien Broner TKO6 Eloy Perez: Eloy Perez is talented, but Adrien Broner is more talented, and his speed and power will allow him to eventualy catch Perez and get him out of there when he does.
Robert Guerrero, five-belt, three-division titlewinner
Eloy Perez SD 12 Adrien Broner: Adrien Broner is a good fighter, but I believe Eloy will dig deep and win a split-decision.
Adrien Broner TKO 8 Eloy Perez: Adrien Broner has been babied along the way, but that does not hide the fact that he's got a lot of ability. Eloy Perez is a very tough guy.
But I think he's going to eat a lot of shots and that's not a good thing when facing a guy like Broner, who has some pop when he sits down on his punches.
As Broner gains confidence as the fight wears on, I think he'll engage more and wind up stopping Perez.
Adrien Broner W 12 Eloy Perez: I think Adrien Broner escapes with a disputed decision against the well-schooled Eloy Perez, who's fundamental soundness will neutralize many of Broner's physical attributes
Paulie Malignaggi, welterweight contender, former IBF junior welterweight beltholder
Adrien Broner UD 12 Eloy Perez: I think that Adrien Broner has too much overall ring generalship. I think that Eloy Perez has wanted this fight for a while, and he's really tough and that he's really going to come to fight.
I think that Perez is going to give it his all, and I think Perez is going to have his moments and land some good shots and test Broner's heart.
But I just think Broner will withstand it an, in the end, that he just has too much skill for Perez.
Ryan Maquiñana, BoxingScene/Comcast SportsNet
Eloy Perez SD 12 Adrien Broner: Adrien Broner has looked like an offensive juggernaut in early-round stoppages against Jason Litzau and Vicente Rodriguez, putting his punches together beautifully and in rapid succession.
Perez, meanwhile, is a smart, patient boxer who utilizes his smaller size to give his foes less of a target to hit. I don't see Perez pressing the issue, but rather sitting back and waiting on Broner to make a mistake.
Therefore, if Perez can catch an overeager Broner coming in with his short counter left hook and left jab, he could take the fight past the sixth round–a place where "The Problem" has only been once before in an unconvincing decision over Daniel Ponce de Leon. Perez by split-decision over Broner.
Adrien Broner UD 12 Eloy Perez: If Eloy Perez were a big puncher, I'd favor him. He's not. Adrien Broner has a ton of talent and almost as much attitude.
It's enough to stay a step ahead for most of the night with some really good action in spots after building an early lead.
Adrien Broner W 12 Eloy Perez: I'm going with Adrien Broner. He's the best at 130 pounds, he just has to pay his dues before we can all say so.
Eloy Perez is an interesting style for him and will make Broner work harder than he has had to in recent fights.
The experts favor Adrien Broner, 8-4, over Eloy Perez

Ayren Hart had no problem admitting his eyes were closed.
The Eagle Valley senior wasn't whom the last play was designed for, but there Hart found himself with the ball and precious seconds ticking off the clock.
Hart took three dribbles, lasered a shot from near the elbow of the free throw line that kissed the glass and fell in as time expired, giving the Eagle Valley boys basketball team a 37-36 win against Steamboat.
"My eyes were closed I swear," Hart said. "I mean I was was shocked."
Not as shocked as a Steamboat team that controlled the game for nearly three quarters to only see a 12 point lead evaporate.
The Sailors were up 33-21 with 37 seconds left in the third quarter. Eagle Valley started to chip away and held Steamboat scoreless for 5:45 to eventually take a 35-33 lead with 4:09 left in the fourth quarter.
Finally Steamboat's Brody King made a bucket to knot it up at 35.
Steamboat's Carter Kounovsky hit 1 of 2 free throws with 22 seconds left, before Hart hit his buzzer-beater.
"It's not a byproduct of the last shot - it's a byproduct of how you played for 32 minutes," Steamboat coach Luke DeWolfe said. "The looks we got were good looks. Right now we have a tendency to shoot well in the first half and not in the second."
Steamboat certainly played better in the first half, but Eagle Valley was able to speed the game up in the second half to make the Sailors uncomfortable.
A prime example was late in the third quarter. After Steamboat took its largest lead of the night at 33-21, it looked like Eagle Valley was on the ropes.
But the Devils scored five points in the last 19 seconds of the quarter, and the first nine of the fourth, to change the complexion of the game.
I told the guys they had to have a sense of urgency," Devils coach Jim Bair said. "Playing in a game like that it's like being down 30. We were fortunate enough tonight to win, but they understood it was important to be urgent in the third quarter and not just the last couple of minutes."
Steamboat falls to 6-5 overall and 2-4 in the Western Slope League. Eagle Valley is 9-2 and 5-1.
Steamboat girls falter in late comeback
It was everything you'd expect from a Western Slope League girls basketball game.
Team A jumped out to a big lead, gave it up, fell behind, came back, took the lead and eventually lost.
Team A, as it has seem to gone this year, was Steamboat.
Eagle Valley withstood a late charge in picking up a 41-40 win Friday and staying in the thick of things in the Western Slope League.
The Devils, with a limited bench because several girls at the Presidential Inauguration on Monday, improved to 8-3 overall and 5-1 in the Western Slope League. The team remains a game behind Delta in the standings. Steamboat is 5-6 overall and 1-5 in the league.
For Steamboat it was what could have been.
The team was up 17-13 after a quarter, before struggling in the second and falling behind 31-22.
Eagle Valley was keyed by Mariel Gutierrez's 14 points in the second quarter.
"She brings a calming effect to our team," Devils coach Sam Bartlett said. "She's just a hard working kid."
But Steamboat battled. The Sailors cut the lead to 35-29 after three quarters and had it at 39-38 with 1:45 left.
Steamboat's Mikaila Jegtvig and Eagle Valley's Madeline Lounsberry traded free throws to put the Devils up 41-40 with 24 seconds remaining.
Steamboat's Maggie Crouch got an offensive rebound and was fouled with a second left, but couldn't connect on a pair of free throws.
"We battled in the fourth and had an opportunity to win at the end and just didn't do it," Steamboat coach John Ameen said. "We just haven't found a way to be able to close games like that."

BERKELEY -- Dodging praise and fighting off emotions on his final day as Cal's basketball coach, Mike Montgomery used the podium to deliver a passionate endorsement of associate head coach Travis DeCuire as his successor.
Whoever gets the job will have enormous shoes to fill.
Montgomery retired Monday after six successful seasons at Cal and the most accomplished career of any Bay Area men's basketball coach of the past half century.
"I feel really good about my decision. I just think it's time," Montgomery said during a 35-minute news conference in which he showed a seldom-seen soft side by nearly breaking into tears several times.
In addition to the six years he spent at Cal, Montgomery, 67, coached for 18 seasons at Stanford, where he had his greatest success, leading the Cardinal into the NCAA tournament 12 times, including his last 10 years in a row. He left Stanford after the 2003-04 season to coach the Golden State Warriors, compiling a 68-96 record before being fired after two seasons.
Montgomery underwent surgery for bladder cancer 21/2 years ago but said his health is "great" and that he wanted to step away from coaching on his own terms.
He also put some heat on Cal athletic director Sandy Barbour to give serious consideration to DeCuire, who has been part of his staff in Berkeley for all six seasons.
"We've got the guy in this room that should have this job," Montgomery said. "I'm really hoping Sandy comes to that conclusion, ultimately. We're positioned very, very well."
Montgomery praised DeCuire as a strong strategist who had a huge hand in helping Cal improve a sagging academic reputation that the current staff inherited.
"We have a terrific group of young people that are ready to take the next step," Montgomery said. "In my opinion they're ready to move forward with Travis at the helm."
Barbour said she'd conduct a nationwide search to find a replacement for the man she called "a coaching icon." The process will take her to Arlington, Texas, this weekend for the Final Four.
She confirmed the athletic department has hired a Texas-based search firm, and that UC Berkeley chancellor Nicholas Dirks and vice chancellor John Wilton will have a hand in the final decision.
She also said Montgomery's endorsement carries weight. "You pay attention," she said, calling DeCuire "a significant candidate for the job."
DeCuire, 43, was grateful for the support from "a future Hall of Fame coach."
Sophomore guard Tyrone Wallace said he was "shocked" by Montgomery's retirement decision, and carried on the campaign for DeCuire.
"We definitely respect him, and that's important," he said.
Added freshman Jabari Bird: "I would love to see Coach Travis get the job."
Among those who could be a candidate is former UCLA coach Ben Howland, who said Monday was about celebrating "one of the greatest coaching careers of our era. He's someone all coaches can look up to. He's the complete coach, a very good X and O coach and teacher. They're as hard to defend as anybody I've ever coached against."
Howland guided UCLA to three straight Final Fours through 2008.
Rarely sentimental, Montgomery acknowledged he was at a loss to wrap his arms around the occasion or his career, which spanned 32 seasons on the collegiate level and produced a record of 677-316, with just one losing campaign.
He fashioned a record of 130-73 at Cal, the best six-year span in school history, with the Bears earning four NCAA tournament berths and winning their first Pac-12 title in 50 years in 2010.
At Stanford, Montgomery took a perennial conference bottom-feeder and built it into a program that competed with Arizona and UCLA at the top of the conference and reached the Final Four in 1998.
"I don't know what to say," Montgomery said when he took the podium. "I did my crying earlier."
Montgomery thanked his family, including wife Sarah and son John, who worked on his coaching staff. At different moments during his address, Montgomery implored his wife and grown daughter Anne to stop crying because it was adding to his emotions.
"He actually gets very teary-eyed watching movies," Sarah Montgomery said. "He's a real softy."
Montgomery was hired by Cal before the 2008-09 season, two years after being dismissed by the Warriors. He knew immediately that the job and the campus culture would be different than it was at Stanford, but the change invigorated him.
"I really like the people here," he said. "That's not to say ... that probably didn't come out right. I really enjoyed the friendships and the people I've met here, their passion for the university. It's been a great experience at Cal."

Government's Free Pass To Illegals Isn't Fair For Legal Citizens
Published: Monday, February 4, 2013 at 12:12 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, February 4, 2013 at 12:12 a.m.
The U.S. Senate's "Gang of Eight" unveiled an immigration reform plan to give younger illegals legal status and a path to citizenship in hope of getting more Hispanic party votes for the 2014 mid-term election, and the president, during his Las Vegas visit, has called for faster citizenship for illegals.
Americans over the past 40 years have had issues with the present federal government's hodgepodge of nonenforced, outdated immigration laws, border security, deportation policies, and the country's lack of an official English language that has divided the people, our culture and have us all wondering just what our federal tax dollars are paying for.
The federal government has done nothing in a meaningful way to secure our borders, enforce our immigration laws and develop a reasonably sustainable immigration growth plan for the country. The government has looked the other way on illegal immigrants, has trouble keeping track of visa visitors in the country, has given citizenships to babies born to non-citizens in the country, has allowed open chain migration — all of which have cost taxpayers billions of dollars over the years.
Now that illegal immigration numbers are in the millions, our Washington political parties see a need for an immigration reform that is a tough-but-fair plan they say, but Americans need to question what part of this immigration reform plan is fair to the 310 million legal citizens in the country, and what do taxpaying citizens get in return besides paying the bill?
Will the Washington elite lawmakers be fair and balanced about bipartisan immigration reform by making English the country's official language, giving baby birthright citizenship to American citizens only, implementing a sustainable-immigration-limit growth plan and adding restrictions or limits to immigration-chain migration? So let's see what's fair to government and what works for the rest of us.

Sandblasted Spoons
In decorating glass spoon pipes, sandblasting is a wonderfully popular technique, with few substitutes. While hand-etching is possible, it is incredibly time consuming and expensive, and laser-etching has a range of flaws which make it a questionable choice. There are two main ways in which sandblasting is used to decorate glass: etching and carving.
In glass etching, abrasive is blasted at the glass lightly to turn the glass semi-opaque. This 'whiting' or 'snowing' of the glass can be used to great effect to produce words or images. By adjusting the speed of the sandblasting and the angle from which the abrasive is being launched, differing shades can be created, allowing for some true works of art. Glass is carved by steadily sandblasting the surface through a stencil which protects the areas you don't want to be carved out. Sandblasting as a technique for carving can be very nuanced, with differing depths and angles of cuts creating an array of lighting effects that may be quite beautiful.

Lawmaker claims NH bombing victim 'not in pain' after blast
State Rep. Stella Tremblay (R-Auburn) told a conservative talk show host Tuesday that she knows the federal government was behind the attacks because Jeff Bauman, a bombing victim who helped identify the suspects, was not "screaming in agony" after both his legs were blown off. Tremblay made the comments on The Pete Santilli Show, first reported by miscellanyblue.com, a liberal-leaning website, on Wednesday.

One woman is quarantined and two others have been told to stay home as health officials investigate suspect cases of a deadly illness.
Three Colorado nurses returned from an educational tour in China. They soon exhibited symptoms of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS.
A fourth case involving a California man who became ill while vacationing in Colorado is being investigated separately.
The female nurses developed fevers higher than 100°F as well as shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. Colorado health officials say the suspect cases are not considered probable. That would change if any of the nurses develops pneumonia.

Why a Pricey Private College Usually Isn't Worth It
SHERYL GARRETT: For the top 1% of scholars, on career paths that require it, I believe that a prestigious and expensive private college may be worth the extra money. However, for the overwhelming majority of students, simply obtaining a quality college education without busting the bank should be the primary objective. The prestige of the institution only matters in very select fields or it's an ego thing.
One argument I hear is that my child will have the opportunity to make lifelong connections that can really help their career if they go to the right schools. If that thinking is worth spending four times the cost of a state university, maybe your young scholar should first enroll in a Dale Carnegie course before heading off to make these very expensive and critical lifelong connections.
Also, considering that very few people are working in the field in which they earned their degree, is the expense of a prestigious education really worth the price? It's very difficult to know in advance. However, determining whether you can afford to pay for or subsidize that education is something that must be known well in advance.

SANTA CLARA -- The 49ers' search for an extra offensive tackle led them to Iowa State's Carter Bykowski in Saturday's seventh round of the NFL draft.
Bykowski (6-foot-6, 306 pounds) converted to tackle his sophomore year after playing tight end as a freshman at Iowa State. He also played tight end in high school in Eden Prairie, Minn.
"I loved blocking and the physical nature of the trenches, and I figured I'd play more as a lineman," Bykowski said on a conference call with Bay Area media. "It's worked out well for me."
Bykowski played right tackle as a junior and left tackle last season. He's added 60 pounds to his frame since converting from tight end.
"I wasn't expecting anything and just hoping for the best," Bykowski said of his draft prospects. "I talked to (49ers line) coach Mike Solari a few times so I knew they were interested."

Ndanke Ndanke Muy Diap Golo Chi NaiWolof for "Slowly, slowly the monkey is coaxed from the underbrush." Achieving anything worthwhile takes time and patience. Stated negatively, haste will destroy what perserverence will nurture. It's not hard to imagine what would happen if you dive into the underbrush after the monkey. This is a major value in Senegalese society, but is mostly foreign to Westerners. Everybody know that "patience is a virtue," but the Senegalese idea is deeper, more fundamental -- even if you haven't made tangible progress toward your objective today or tomorrow, it's no indication that you've failed, even in the short term. A person's fortune unfolds slowly, unpredictably. Set-backs are temporary. Success in even the small things requires the long view.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Monday, Dec. 10, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- There's a choice between three logos, three seals and two color palettes.
After choosing the name split the community, school leaders are hoping this choice does the opposite.
"If this helps a little bit in helping bring the organizations together, and getting a sense of engagement, or ownership even, amongst our most important constituents, our internal family, then it's done its part," said GHSU Senior VP of Communications and Marketing David Brond.
The school sent out a survey to faculty, staff, students and alumni of both GHSU and ASU so they could select their favorite designs for the new Georgia Regents University.
Soon the logo will change from the current interim logo to one of the three new options.
But that's not all they get to choose.
They have to pick a color palette, too. They have a choice between a red along with the old Augusta State blue, or a blue/grey combination.
They also need to choose the next official university seal.
While they all look a little different, one detail stays the same.
"One of the icons on the seal is a unity flame. The unity flame is really symbolic of what this whole consolidation is, it's two organizations coming together," Brond said.
"Makes me feel like I'm taking a part in the merge between GHSU and Augusta State University. Definitely gives me a voice," ASU student Danielle Pelmore said.
The survey has been out for three days now, but in the midst of finals, students say this just isn't at the top of their priority list.
"Very, very low. I do it out of fidelity to the school and trying to be a member of the community, but not because I really care," GHSU student Jack O'Neill said.
"I haven't been able to look at them yet, but I plan on it maybe after finals blow over," Pelmore said.
While the school wants this to be a positive thing for the campus, some students say there's one thing that's making choosing a logo hard.
"The fact that I still don't like the name change. The actual way that GRU looks on the logos and in the seals, I think that I have a negative bias towards it," O'Neill said.
The survey went out to 46,000 people in the university community. The design that gets the most votes will be the winner. Voting continues until Wednesday at noon.
Even though last time they did a survey -- about the name -- people were put off because the most popular name did not win out.
But, they insist, this time, it'll be different.
The people completing the survey will actually have the final say here, and we should know the results later this week.

DARTMOUTH — Wielding a drill and a syringe, a New Bedford man attacked a Lowe's worker who accused him of shoplifting Saturday, police said.
Dartmouth police responded to the home improvement store around noon and arrested Adam Ferreira, 29, of 105 Pierce St., Detective Kyle Costa said.
Ferreira brandished a syringe and swung a drill at the head of a loss prevention officer who tried to detain him after he allegedly swiped more than $100 worth of merchandise, according to Costa.
Ferreira is charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, shoplifting, drug possession and having four outstanding warrants.

SANTA CLARA -- If Jim Harbaugh needed an expert witness to help him land a contract extension, former 49ers coach George Seifert offered words of praise Tuesday, along with a humorous anecdote from Harbaugh's playing days.
"I am a big fan of Coach Harbaugh and all that they've done," Seifert said at a news conference for his induction this season into the 49ers Hall of Fame. "I mean it's miraculous to have won the number of games and been in the championship games in a short period of time he's been a head coach here.
"And to turn the program around and to get it back to where we all believe it belongs, it's pretty darn exciting and amazing."
Seifert, 74, vividly recalled how excited Harbaugh got as a winning quarterback, specifically after leading the Indianapolis Colts to an 18-17 win over Seifert's reigning Super Bowl champion 49ers in 1995.
"Jim was instrumental in Indianapolis beating us," Seifert recalled. "Obviously their team was elated and they all ran off to their sideline. There was one player in an Indianapolis uniform that ran towards our sideline: it was Jim Harbaugh, with his arms outstretched like an airplane buzzing us.
"He kind of stuck it in our ear. I thought, well, there's a special emotion there. It's carried over obviously to the way he coaches here."
Through three season, Harbaugh owns a .761 regular-season winning percentage, just short of Seifert's .766 from 1989-1996. Seifert also has two Super Bowl triumphs to go with his 49ers regular-season mark of 98-30.
Harbaugh (36-11-1 in the regular season) has two years left on a five-year, $25 million contract he signed in 2011 upon leaving Stanford. There have been no imminent signs of an extension being reached, although CEO Jed York has publicly endorsed such a move.
As for Seifert, he says he misses the camaraderie he experienced as a coach and "even the tension of it all. At the same time, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it and I realized there's no way I can do it again. I learned that the hard way."
Seifert said he's "naturally excited" to enter a hall of fame associated with the team he grew up cheering for and getting enshrined with some players and coaches he not only idolized but also worked alongside.
Seifert says he typically speaks with Harbaugh a couple times a year, including an annual visit to a game at the invitation of team owner John York. Otherwise, Seifert said he enjoys watching from his home in Incline Village, Nevada: "I sit with my dog Rusty and watch games, which I enjoy."
Seifert's other interests: "I enjoy having a martini with my wife, walking my dog, and watching my (four) grandchildren play sports and being involved in 4-H, going on trips with my buddies, and going hunting and fishing."
