My bicycle is our second car. I love to bicycle in all weather, for all distances, and on all routes. Bicycling has brought so much joy to my life, and I want to share it with anyone who is interested. I will use my soapbox to tell you about the joys, the freedom, the benefits, and, yes, the challenges of bicycling and walking for transportation.
I have said before that the only good reason not to ride a bicycle is because you don't want to. Anything else is just an excuse. You have only to look at the lengths to which people go in order to ride a bike despite debilitating disease, missing limbs, small children, long commute distances, challenging terrain, and discouraging weather. They prove that if you want to ride a bike, you can.
I admire and even envy people who can show their love for bicycling by overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Not that I want small children or a debilitating disease, exactly. I make the most I can of discouraging weather to feed my ego. To be fair, in Missouri we have a decent amount of that.
Today put me to the test and I'm on shaky ground next to the folks I admire.
A couple weeks ago I suffered a cliché lower back injury from shoveling snow, which got better and then suddenly got worse. Much worse. At the same time, the shifter on my bike broke, making my bike effectively a single speed locked into high gear. If I were strong and healthy, I could power up the hills and stand in the pedals, but that wasn't possible this morning.
I got out my daughter's bike, which she isn't riding right now because it's too cold for her (and for most reasonable people). Her bike has a lower top tube than mine and I thought it might be easier to get my leg over it. Well, it might be easier, but still required some tricky balance while I hoisted my left leg up with my arms. I had to mount from the opposite side that I'm used to, because my right leg wouldn't go up that high even with an assist.
Having done all that, I hadn't thought to check the weather. I knew it was cold. I didn't realize just how cold it was this morning. It was 7 °F.
When bicycling, there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes. With the proper equipment I could comfortably bike even at 7 °F. I rarely have the opportunity, so I haven't invested in ultra cold weather gear. I realized my mistake when I was already halfway to work so I kept going.
Once my fingers thawed out, I cried "Uncle" and arranged for a ride home. By then, my back was feeling better, and it had warmed up almost to freezing.

If you're involved in charity work in Stockton, you probably know Andy Prokop. If you're involved in charity work in Stockton and don't know Prokop, chances are it's only a matter of time.
Prokop, CEO and president of the United Way of San Joaquin County for nearly 14 years, seems to be everywhere, especially in places where people are trying to make a difference.
Friday, about a dozen people swept unexpectedly into his office to surprise him as the 2012 Stocktonian of the Year. It's an honor well deserved but it should surprise no one that Prokop would be so honored.
Years before joining the United Way, Prokop was giving disabled citizens a hand up by giving them jobs when he operated the area's Carl's Jr. franchises. He's served on the board of the Asparagus Festival and the Mary Graham Children's Shelter Foundation. He's been involved with the Child Abuse Prevention Council and groups devoted to cerebral palsy, cystic fibrosis, scleroderma, juvenile offenders and animal rescue. In 2004 he was honored by Goodwill Industries with its "Helping Hands" award.
As a young man, Prokop served his country in Vietnam as a helicopter crew chief. At 66, he continues to serve. Stockton is a better place because he does.

TRUCKEE, Calif. - The local economy, area development and town services were the main topics at the Truckee Town Council candidate forum last week.
There are two races this November for Truckee Town Council. The first race is for one, two-year seat, which has become available due to Councilman Richard Anderson leaving to serve as a Nevada County supervisor. Those running for the two-year term are: Denny Dickinson, a retired building contractor who has been attending town council meetings since 1999; Patrick Flora, a general contractor who has served on the town's planning commission since 2007 and the building appeals board since 2002; and Daryl Simms, an independent contractor in the advertising industry and president and co-founder of a nonprofit environmental education center.
The second race is for two, four-year seats. Those running are: Alicia Barr, co-owner of local businesses FiftyFifty and Drunken Monkey, who has served on the advisory board for engineering at CSU Chico; Jamie Brimer, a general remodeling contractor and plumber, who has served on the town's building appeals board since 2002; and Joan deRyk Jones, a town council member the past four years and current mayor, who is a general contractor, a partner in a construction company and co-owner of the Truckee River Winery.
"Because the issues facing the town council are the same, no matter the length of the term, we have included all the candidates in the same forum segment, so they will all have the opportunity to introduce themselves and answer the questions presented by the public," said forum moderator Stacy Caldwell, CEO of the Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation, to a crowd of approximately 35 people at the Town Hall.
Candidates were first asked how they would improve tourism on a year-round basis and make the town less dependent on snowfall.
All six agreed tourism is important to Truckee's economy, but offered different suggestions on how to improve it.
Flora suggested focusing on geotourism efforts, while Barr suggested collaborating on events.
"I think one, recognizing that Truckee is not an island, and really building relationships and collaborating with our neighbors to bring such events as Ironman, Tough Mudder, the Fat Tire event recently, those all, especially coming in the offseason - what is typically an offseason for tourism - would be a huge boom for all of us," she said.
Brimer suggested working with the chamber of commerce to create more events like Truckee Thursdays to attract people to the area, at the same time emphasizing the importance of creating more jobs for locals.
Dickinson said that's who the focus should be on: the locals.
"What's happened in Truckee is that we're too focused on tourism," he said. "We need to start thinking about the people. I think there's a way that we can have tourism and have a way that the people who work here can afford to be here, too. ... I don't know how to solve these problems, but this is one of the major areas I would be working on."
Simms pointed out that some current locals were tourists at one point.
"I was one of those tourists in 1987 and now here I am," he said. "... The goal of perhaps converting people that are here visiting to want to live here, it's critical."
As far as how to do that, he suggested the town should capitalize on its "action rockstars," especially regarding high school athletes and their achievements through signage.
Jones said Truckee's downtown infrastructure is important to attracting people to the area.
"We've done a lot recently to improve our downtown infrastructure," she said. "I think that's a tremendous boost to our tourism. It creates a community feeling, it creates a genuine downtown, and the more we can push forward that we are a real community with a beautiful downtown that's safe and easy to walk through ... I think we'll continue to bring tourists into our downtown area."
Candidates were asked if Truckee should give "CPR to the development industry" - they all answered in the affirmative, but a few stressed the importance of responsible development.
"If you were living here in the late 90s through 2006 or 2007, you know that construction was going rampant, and a lot of people would say out of control because it was too much, too fast," Brimer said. "But construction is one of the lifebloods of our community besides tourism and the ski industry, so yes, I would agree that the town needs to look at all ways to help construction, but smart construction."
Barr and Jones echoed that sentiment.
Making development difficult is the fact the town no longer has a redevelopment agency, after the California Supreme Court ruled this year to abolish such agencies.
"The Pocket Park, redevelopment on West River, what's going to be done with the old Corp Yard on West River, so there's a lot of projects still with irons on the kettle," Brimer said. "Now, exactly where those funds will come from, I don't believe anybody can answer that tonight."
Simms agreed with Brimer that it's difficult to say where funding would come from, but Flora did have a few suggestions.
"There are options out there," he said. "The town is currently pursuing some of those, being various federal and state grant funds. There are options, but it's going to be an uphill battle for the town to replace those funds on an annual basis."
Dickinson said the town needs to "rethink the box," and Barr offered such an idea.
"I would take the approach of instead of looking for funding, we (should) look internally and make it more attractive and streamline and affordable for businesses and developers to want to come and revitalize it for their own business," she said. "... Maybe creating a marketing arm of the town that not only encourages people to just to come visit here, but for people to come and start a business here, and if it's affordable and attractive enough, they can be part of the redevelopment process in a more organic way."
Jones suggested the town forming its own redevelopment district by working with other districts "receiving the tax increment monies" to fund community projects.
Another question posed to the candidates was to name a service not offered in Truckee they would like implemented and how they would pay for it.
"The key to that question is the last part," Jones said. "How are you going to pay for it. We're pretty constrained with property taxes and sales and TOT (transient occupancy tax)."
She said if she had a "magic wand," she would like to improve area trails and walkability.
Dickinson said the town needs a new library, and as for how to pay for it, he said: "We will ask the public to come forward and pay for that library out of their pocket."
Barr suggested the planning or building department have a liaison for those trying to open a business in town, while Flora suggested hiring an economic development staffer.
"Their entire job every day is to make our business environment for existing businesses better and looking for ways to get new businesses, new employers to come to Truckee," Flora said.
Brimer suggested extending the office hours of the building department, where as Simms would like to see a change to the downtown parking procedures.
"My notion would be the combination of what they have, barcode reading for stickers in and out of Lake Tahoe, and the local sticker that we currently have available here in Truckee," he said. "Combine the two. Allow people to buy the local sticker with the parking barcode ... They (can then) just go downtown and park. If a meter reader comes through, the barcode is read, their credit card or ATM is hit. They never have to worry about a ticket. They never have to worry about the kiosk."
As for a community service that could be cut, most of the candidates agreed that they wouldn't cut anything.
"I think we've trimmed back the government in an appropriate way," Jones said. "The building department is much smaller than it was many years ago. The police force is smaller. We have less town clerks. So there has been cuts and trimming (done) to be reflective of our revenues, but I don't think we have a community service or department I would say is not needed."

William Walter *r~T> St. Trr^i? McDonald Ignatius, H0nt< CHAR-KOOSTA PUBLISHED BY CONFEDERATED SALISH AND KOOTENAI TRIBES, FLATHEAD AGENCY, MONT. Application for Second Class Permit Made at the Post Office in Ronan, Montana Volume 1 — Number 2 December, 1956 j INDIAN LEGENDS j Health Personnel Serving- Indians Meet at Agency A two-day health meeting was held at the Flathead Indian Tribal Hall on Dec. 11 and 12 at the suggestion of Dr. E. L. Sederlin, Acting Health Officer of District II. Those participating in the conference were Dr. Sederlin, Kenneth Read. Sanitarian, Miss Mary Carmack, Health Educationist, and Miss Gladys Schuerman, Supervisor of Nurses, all of the State Health Board. U. S. Public Health Service was represented by Miss Lillian Kennedy, supervisor of nurses, Ernest Dubuque, sanitary engineer; Gervais A. Dupuis, administrative clerk; Dr. Frank Varra, dentist; Earl Sanders, sanitary aid. Montana Public Health District No. 2 was represented by C. E. Brackett of the Board of Directors; Mrs. Harriet Patterson, public health nurse, of Sanders county; Miss Carrie Marshall and Mrs. Dorothy Fassler, public health nurses, Lake county; Miss Violet Costlow, clerk-stenographer. The Tribal Council of the Flathead Indians was represented by Walter W. McDonald, chairman, and Walter H. Morigeau, vice-chairman. The Regional office of the United States De partment of Health, Education and Welfare of the Denver Area was represented by Dr. Saubarli. The United States Indian Service was represented by Mrs. Elizabeth Shipman. social worker, and Forrest R. Stone, Superintendent. The two days were spent on an agenda that covered practically every phase of Public Health Service on the Flathead Reservation with particular emphasis on the service to Indians. It was very apparent, as the discussions progressed, that all participating agencies gained a clearer, view of their responsibilities to the preventive health program and to increased efforts to co-ordinate their contributions through the health officer. Lemery Goes To Portland FLATHEAD AGENCY — Louis Lemery, Flathead agency administration officer for tht past nine years has been promoted to the Portland area office of the Bureau of Indian Affairs where he will be area realty officer. Lemery came to the Flathead agency in 1937 as secretary to the tribal council. Before that he had worked for the Flathead Irrigation projeet both at Poison and St. Ignatius. He entered bureau employ in 1944 going to Cass Lake, Minn., until 1947 when he returned to the Flathead as administrative officer. The Lemery's have two children, Janet, a student at Montana State university in Missoula and James, a sophomore at Dixon high school. "PEMICAN" by Louis J. Tellier Four kinds of pemican became popular among the Indians of this nation about 100 years ago — the Indians of the Great Lakes group Hunters of the Plains group, The Northern Fisherman group, The Seed-gahers, Desert Dwellers and the Navaho Shepherds, The latter three groups made the same kind of pemican which was different than that of the three groups first mentioned. The Pemican that was made by "Hunters of The Plains group" became the most popular. Many of the white pioneers in their westward march ate the Indian made pemican, buying it whenever they could as a staple food. The Hunters of the plains group included many popular tribes of Indians such as: Mandans, Sioux, Arikaras, Crows, Shoshonis, Blackfeet, Gros Ventres, Flatheads, etc. They lived on the great plains and in the Rocky Mountain Areas. Their pemican consisted mainly of sun-and-fire-dried buffalo meat pounded into a pulp which was mixed with tallow of the buffalo. Sun-dried, pounded choke cherries or sun-dried sarvasberries were sometimes mixed into the pemican. Baked Under Campfire Before many of the Indian women became familiar with the white man's cooking and baking utensils, the pemican was baked under a camp fire. After the fire was put out, a hole was dug large enough to place the mixture into it. It was immediately sprinkled with water so that the walls and bottom of the hole would form into a baked earthen oven. Then it was lined with large leaves that were gathered from swamps, lakes and water areas. The mixture of pemican was molded into ball forms about the size of a baseball or into any desired form and wrapped in leaves, placed in the hole and covered with leaves and soil. A fire was made over the hole and the baking was in process. After baking the pemican was cooled and became quite brittle. This type of pemican was known to last as lonp, as two years or more. Very shortly after the buffalo were all killed off many Indians, especially the Flatheads and the neighboring Blackfeet, made their pemican from deer and elk meats. This kind of pemican never did become popular among; Flatheads because many of the full-bloods said, "We have known our pemican to be made from the buffalo meats. To use deer and elk ments is not the way our great-grandmothers taught us to make it." The pemicans made since 1900 were mixed and baked in many different ways and mixtures varied among tribes since the buffalo meat has not been available. The Indians who lived in the Great Lakes area such as the Chip-pewas, Menomonies, Ottowas, Winne-bagoes, Potowatomis also used the meats of the buffalo. In many instances, instead of sun-dried pounded cherries and berries, wild rice was used. Use of Fish not Successful The West Coast tribes of Indians known as The Northern Fishermen, which included such tribes as the Chinook, Klickitat, Klamath and many small tribes, never did have much success in their pemican efforts because of the use of fish which could not be kept too long in pemican mixtures. The Pueblo Farmers, the Navaho K/.iv J v » J V A MO, llJlVI LIU., ULCUgULlllvi^, WHICH included such tribes as Piautes, Tu-lares, Mohaves, Hopis, Apaches, Utes, Walapais and other southwestern tribes, used sheep, antelope and wild game meats after the buffalo were gone. In the late years many Indians have tried in vain to revive the making of pemican. Many different medicinal herbs, roots and wild berries were used as a mix and many different methods of cooking and baking were introduced. In spite of efforts the most popular food of our forefathers "The Pemican," has "gone with the wind." 492 Acres Trust Land Sold During October Sales of Indian trust lands totalled 492 acres during October. This was approximately 31 per cent of the acreage advertised at that time, namely 1,553 acres. Sealed bids were opened publicly Nov. 2nd. Bids consistent with ap praised value or exceeding them were referred to the Billings Area Office for award. Six of 21 advertised tracts received successful bids. Indian trust lands are advertised for sale only upon the owners' or heirs' own request. Applications are then made on a government form and approved by the Flathead agency supertintendent.

VIENNA, 7 November 2013 - This year's Africa Industrialization Day (AID) with the theme "Job Creation and Entrepreneurship Development: a means to accelerate industrialization in Africa", will be marked in Vienna on 22 November.
Job creation and entrepreneurship development represents a means to reduce poverty by empowering vulnerable communities and reinforce efforts towards a sustainable economic growth in Africa. The AID serves as an important occasion to reflect on the progress made and discuss the necessary efforts to achieve an inclusive and sustainable industrial development.
While youth and women are considered to be the driving force for social-economic development and innovation of our society, they are the ones who are most severely affected by a high rate of unemployment and underemployment.
The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) will organize a symposium on 22 November. The panel discussion will feature representatives of governments, the diplomatic corps, academia, the private sector, and heads of UN agencies.
The symposium will be held from 3 to 5 PM, on 22 November, at the Vienna International Centre (VIC), and will be followed by a cocktail reception.
The annual commemoration of the Africa Industrialization Day was mandated by the United Nations General Assembly resolution 44/237 of 22 December 1989.

CORPUS CHRISTI – The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi softball team battled with Sam Houston State today in a rubber match at Chapman Field. After falling behind early 5-0, the Islanders rallied back in the first and third frames to tie the game at 5-5 and force extra innings. The Bearkats answered with three runs on three hits to win 8-5 in eight innings.
The Islanders (8-31, 3-15 SLC) tallied seven hits led by Hayley Galloway who went 3-for-3 while Mickayla Cochran, Lindsey Lyles, Laura Phillips and Cassie Carroll each added one hit apiece.
Alyssa Coggins went 3-for-4 to lead the Bearkats (25-19, 11-7 SLC) while Tori Benadvidez, Tiffany Castillo and Hillary Adams each recorded two hits apiece for the visiting team.
The Bearkats jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the opening frame on five hits. Benavidez started things with a single but was called out at second on a Cecilia Castillo fielder's choice. Tiffany Castillo followed with a single to shortstop to advance Cecilia Castillo to third. After Ashley Isbell grounded out to third base, Kim Damian walked to load the bases. Adams then doubled to center field to plate Damian, Tiffany Castillo and Cecilia Castillo to give the Bearkats a 3-0 lead. Shelbi Tucker singled to right field to score Adams before Coggins ripped a RBI single to left field to score Tucker. Islanders hurler Constance Brandenburg pulled the Islanders out with her first punch out of the game.
The Islanders rallied back with one run on one hit in the bottom of the first and put together a huge bottom of the third to even the score at 5-5. With one out, Galloway drilled her third double of the season to right center. After Sam Houston State's Haley Baros recorded her second strikeout of the frame, Galloway moved to third on a wild pitch before Valerie Perez reached on a Bearkat fielding error to score Galloway. The Islanders plated four runs on five hits in the bottom of the third to knot the score.
Dani Tefft reached on a throwing error and advanced to second to start the rally. Cochran then followed with a RBI single to left center to score Tefft and pull the Islanders within three. Galloway followed suit with a single to shortstop to land Cochran on second before Lyles drilled a bunt single to load the bases. Cochran then scored on a wild pitch while Galloway moved to third and Lyles moved to second. After a Perez ground out, Phillips ripped a single up the middle to plate Galloway and trim the deficit to one. With runners on the corners, McKinney grounded out to third to advance Phillips to second. Carroll then stepped to the plate and hit a RBI single to center field to plate Lyles and even the score at 5-5.
The Islanders and Bearkats battled for the next four innings before forcing extra innings. During the stretch, Brandenburg was stellar, retiring six straight in the fourth, fifth and six frames.
Sam Houston State rallied to score three runs on three hits in the top of the eighth to end the game. Jessica Slater reached on a fielder's choice to score Dani Allen, who came in to pinch run for Adams, who reached on a leadoff single. Benavidez followed with a two RBI double down the left field like to plate Jessica Slater and Coggins. Slater reached on a fielder's choice and Coggins reached on a single to third base to give the visiting team a 8-5 lead. Baros retired the Islanders in order in the bottom of the eighth to cap the game.
Brandenburg (5-12) took the loss for the Islanders. The junior allowed 11 hits and eight runs while walking one and striking out one in eight innings.
Baros (8-7) picked up the victory for the Bearkats. She allowed seven hits and five runs, three of them earned while walking one and striking out six in eight innings.
The Islanders will face UTSA in a midweek non-conference doubleheader on April 17 in San Antonio.

Big Solar Thermal Power Plants Planned for Florida, California
Florida Power and Light (FPL) announced on September 26th that it plans to build a 300-megawatt solar thermal power plant, which will be the state's first commercial solar thermal power facility. The utility will first build a 10-megawatt power plant using technology from Ausra, Inc., which employs flat arrays of Fresnel lenses to focus the sun's heat. Most of today's commercial solar thermal power plants are using parabolic mirrors to focus the sun's heat, a technology that's presumably more expensive and harder to maintain than Fresnel lenses would be, but Ausra's technology is as yet unproven commercially. According to the FPL Group, FPL's parent company, the initial plant in Florida will be expanded to 300 megawatts if the Ausra technology meets its cost and performance goals. The FPL Group also plans to develop 200 megawatts of solar thermal power in California within the next seven years. See the FPL Group press release and the description of the technology on the Ausra Web site.
The FPL Group has also joined with Ausra and a northern California utility, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), in a separate commitment to build 1,000 megawatts of solar thermal power over the next 20 years. PG&E also committed to purchasing an additional 1,000 megawatts of solar thermal power over the next five years. All the commitments were made as part of the annual meeting of the Clinton Climate Initiative. See the press releases from Ausra and PG&E.
PG&E had already announced plans to develop nearly 1,000 megawatts of solar thermal power with the help of two solar thermal power companies: Solel Solar Systems and BrightSource Energy, Inc. Solel plans to build a 553-megawatt power plant using parabolic mirror technology, while BrightSource plans to use "distributed power towers," a technology that draws upon a field of flat, sun-tracking mirrors to focus the sun's heat on a tower. BrightSource filed an application with the California Energy Commission in early September to build a 400-megawatt plant that would consist of 20 separate 20-megawatt power towers.

Center Andrew Bogut knows what the Warriors laid on the line for him.
They parted with fan favorite Monta Ellis, a move that led to a very public booing for the owner. They endured 22 losses over the final 28 games, leading to accusations of "tanking" the season. They have waited, waited and waited some more while Bogut recovers from a fractured left ankle, all the while promising they knew exactly what they were doing.
The 7-foot Bogut is no big dummy.
"I know what this is about," Bogut said. "I know that in order for us to be really good, I have to be really good."
The fate of the Warriors' 2012-13 season -- which tips off Wednesday night in Phoenix -- rests squarely on the shoulders of Bogut. He is the missing piece, counted upon to turn a perennial disappointment into a legit playoff contender.
But Bogut doesn't have to go it alone. In fact, he has more help than he probably ever has had in his eight-year NBA career.
He is surrounded by shooters, including Stephen Curry, the other face of the franchise. Forward David Lee is expected to put up the gaudy numbers playing next to a true center such as Bogut. Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes highlight a cast of talented youngsters. And the bench is loaded with experience with Jarrett Jack, Carl Landry, Brandon Rush and Richard Jefferson.
"I don't think Bogut by himself is good enough to make the Golden State Warriors a playoff team," said NBA TV analyst Chris Webber, arguably the Warriors' last dominant big man. "But he along with all the other big guys, they're good enough to make this team a playoff team and make them dangerous in the playoffs."
The Warriors need Andrew Bogut, circa 2009-11. That is the Bogut who averaged 14.4 points, 10.6 rebounds, 2.6 blocks and played with an edgy Australian rules football toughness. While smirking at the talk of pressure, Bogut said his focus is on being a leader, playing lights-out defense and demonstrating a complete game.
"I don't think there is any reason to expect otherwise. He's a veteran. He's been through this. He's seen a lot," said owner Joe Lacob, the man who received Warriors fans' wrath during a ceremony to celebrate Chris Mullin's jersey number retirement. "But at the end of the day, he's got to go out and perform. We wouldn't have done (the trade) if we didn't believe Bogut was the type of player who could deliver."
Knowing the stakes, Bogut and the Warriors have been extra cautious. He practiced fully Tuesday, his second consecutive stint. His status for the opener will be determined Wednesday, coach Mark Jackson said.
Bogut hasn't played since January, when he fractured his left ankle while with the Milwaukee Bucks. While he has targeted the season opener since having a second surgery in April, Bogut said his mind is on being healthy in March and April, when the Warriors plan to be making a playoff push.
What Bogut hasn't waited to do is assert his presence in the locker room. Even when he was relegated to the sideline last season, he could regularly be heard shouting at his teammates.
"I don't mind barking," Bogut said. "I don't mind getting the best out of guys. If some guys don't like me because I'm a (jerk), I really don't care. I'd rather be a (jerk) and make the playoffs than be a nice guy and drinking a beer in April back in Australia."
When he does take the court, Bogut said he does not expect to post gaudy numbers. His game hinges on being an adept shot-blocker and a physical presence, and his priority will be to make the Warriors a credible defensive team.
"With me out there, we are better," Bogut said. "Just being honest."
But he also looks forward to brushing off parts of his game that grew rusty in the rugged Eastern Conference.
Bogut said he will handle the ball. He will set up his teammates. He said even his midrange jumper is back now that his elbow, which he dislocated in a nasty fall, has had an extra year to heal.
"The best part about Bogut's game is that he can run the floor and stay quick with those guys," Webber said. "Him on the pick-and-roll, he can step out and shoot the ball, he can also go and attack the basket real hard."
His coach thinks Warriors fans are in for a treat.
"He's a top-five center in this league," Jackson said. "When he's healthy, people will see."
That's the rub, though: People haven't seen. And it explains why the Warriors aren't getting much love in preseason predictions. Few experts have them making the playoffs, and several predict they will be a doormat in the stacked Western Conference. And the biggest knock is whether they can stay healthy.
Bogut has played in just 58 percent of his teams' games the past four seasons. For the Warriors to have a legitimate shot, he probably will need to play at least 70 games for the first time since the 2007-08 season.
But just playing won't be enough. The Warriors will need Bogut to be an elite performer -- a fact that certainly isn't lost on him.
"People around here are hungry," he said. "A lot is riding on this year."

"Chronicles of the A train. Chronicles of the A train," says the world-weary straphanger after witnessing this severely one-sided "fight" that is today's entry into the hefty catalog of recent subway insanity. I bet what would help to not have a clearly insane and/ or intoxicated man get his ass beat by the most frustrated of an entire train car's worth of frustrated riders is to shut the train doors more frequently than once every four minutes. That would deprive us all of our day's unsettling voyeurism, though.

Assassin's Creed II: Bonfire of the Vanities
Ezio will be returning to Florence to take on the monk Savonarola and his carde. As fellow writer Zack Islam wrote earlier this month, 'The Bonfire of the Vanities' refers to the 'historical event, which took place in 1497, in Florence, Italy, where the burning of thousands of objects which indulged one in sinning took place, including art and books which was carried out by the supporters of the Dominican Priest Girolamo Savonarola.'

In an academic dermatology department like ours, we have three main missions: patient care, research, and education.
The Department of Dermatology at UIC is proud of being one of the earliest established departments in the country and has diligently served patients suffering from skin diseases in the greater Chicago area for more than 110 years. Many outstanding physicians have served as leaders of our department. The department's first Head, Dr. William Pusey, was elected as the President of the AMA. The department's second head, Dr. Francis Senear, was the discoverer of a novel disease called, "Pemphigus erythematosus". Our faculty members are recognized throughout the medical community as experts in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the skin, hair and nails. Because of our specialized services, other physicians often refer rare skin diseases to UIC. The outstanding medical knowledge and surgical skill of the attending physicians in our department currently provide services in all areas of dermatology care at the UIC Medical Center Outpatient Clinics: general dermatology, pediatric dermatology, contact allergy testing and treatment, rheumatologic disease diagnosis and management, blistering disease diagnosis and treatment, Mohs micrographic cancer surgery, cosmetic surgery, phototherapy, and dermatopathology and immunopathology examinations. The faculty members in our department also serve veterans patients at the Jesse Brown West Side VA Medical Center and soon the Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center (FHCC).
On the research front, the departmental research effort is currently supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health and Dermatology Foundation, as well as an endowed research fellowship. Our research topics are currently focused on: 1). The migration mechanism of neutrophils; 2). The pathogenic mechanisms of atopic dermatitis; and 3). The health disparity in minority population.
Realizing the significance of training the next generation of general and surgical dermatologists, we seek to recruit the brightest young physicians to be our residents, now totaling twelve. Our goals are to continue imparting to our residents excellent training in medical and surgical dermatology, utilizing three main teaching facilities: UIC Medical Center Outpatient Clinics, Jesse Brown West Side VA Medical Center and the Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center (FHCC) . Every effort will be made to nurture our residents to become future academic dermatologists so that they can in turn carry out these triple missions of patient care, research, and education.

About the Book
After decades of service and years of watching her family's troubles splashed across the tabloids, Britain's Queen is beginning to feel her age. An unexpected opportunity offers her relief: an impromptu visit to a place that holds happy memories—the former royal yacht, Britannia, now moored near Edinburgh. Hidden beneath a skull-emblazoned hoodie, the limber Elizabeth (thank goodness for yoga) walks out of Buckingham Palace and heads for King's Cross to catch a train to Scotland. But a colorful cast of royal attendants has discovered her missing. In uneasy alliance a lady-in-waiting, a butler, an equerry, a girl from the stables, a dresser, and a clerk from the shop that supplies Her Majesty's cheese set out to bring her back before her absence becomes a national scandal.
Comic and poignant, fast-paced and clever, Mrs Queen Takes the Train tweaks the pomp of the monarchy, going beneath its rigid formality to reveal the human heart of the woman at its center.

Eddie Alton Boyd, 51, was found guilty by a Miller County jury in a domestic violence case. The four-woman, eight-man jury deliberated for less than 40 minutes before returning a unanimous verdict of guilty on the felony of Domestic Assault in the First Degree as charged by Miller County Prosecuting Attorney Matt Howard.
Boyd's trial was held earlier this week.
The charges stem from allegations that Boyd repeatedly beat and kicked his wife at their home in Eldon, Missouri on the evening of February 16, 2010, causing serious physical injuries.
Prosecuting Attorney Matt Howard noted that the victim was initially reluctant to cooperate with the authorities when the crime was first reported by a family member, but two weeks later provided a statement to the Eldon Police Department and was taken to an area hospital where she was found to still be suffering from multiple broken ribs and other remaining bruises and contusions.
Shortly thereafter Boyd was taken into custody and has remained incarcerated in the Missouri Department of Corrections on other sentences until the trial.
Assistant Prosecutor Roger Gibbons presented the evidence in the case to the jury during the two days of trial that commenced on Tuesday morning, and had the court certify that Boyd was a persistent felony offender before the case was given to the jury. Boyd faces a possible punishment for the Class A felony of a minimum 10 years ranging up to 30 years or life in prison.
Circuit Judge Ken Hayden presided over the trial at the Tuscumbia courthouse, and set formal sentencing for 9 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 7, 2011 in the Circuit Court of Miller County.

Assignments and Case Management
Concerning: Arrangement of Court Parts and Assignment of Justices / The Comprehensive Civil Justice Program / Assignment of City Cases / Differentiated Case Management ("DCM") / Neutral Evaluation (informally known as "Mediation") / Assignments for Trial / Automated City Case and Motor Vehicle DCM
The court currently operates the following Parts: (a) Tax Certiorari and Condemnation; (b) City; (c) Transit; (d) Matrimonial; (e) Motor Vehicle; (f) Medical, Dental and Podiatric Malpractice; (g) Mass Tort (Center for Complex Litigation); (h) Article 81; (i) General Assignment; (j) Commercial Division; (k) a Hybrid; (l) Mortgage Foreclosure; and (m) Trial Parts.
Justices are assigned to the various parts by the Administrative Judge. Upon the filing of an RJI, cases are identified by action type and then by an automated process assigned at random to a Justice from among those designated to handle cases of that type.
Case Assignments:
Each case is generally assigned to an IAS Justice for its life, including for trial purposes, except for City cases. Each City case is assigned to a City Justice until a note of issue is filed, when it is reassigned to the City Waiting List in calendar number order.
The pure IAS regime is qualified as follows. If a pure IAS Justice is not able to try a case assigned to him or her, the case may be referred to the Administrative Coordinating Part (Part 40), which shall send the case out for jury selection and trial or assign the case to a Justice for trial, as described hereafter. Second, after a case has been pending in a pure IAS Part for a period without having advanced to trial, it will be subject to removal from the Part by the Administrative Judge for prompt trial so as to prevent serious backlogs and disparities in waiting times in the IAS Parts. Cases so removed will also proceed to trial through the Administrative Coordinating Part. Third, some cases, with the approval of the assigned Justice, may be referred to Part 40 for trial by a Neutral Evaluation Attorney when settlement cannot be reached in the Neutral Evaluation Program.
There are at present various pure IAS General Assignment Parts (handling General cases), one Motor Vehicle Part, two pure IAS Medical, Dental and Podiatric Malpractice Parts, as well as a Part for City hospital cases and one that mediates certain malpractice cases pursuant to a grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and three pre-note City Parts and one Transit Part (for City and non-City Transit cases). To address the overflow of trial-ready cases referred to in the preceding paragraph, and to assist in trial of City cases, there are a number of back-up Trial Parts. An Administrative Coordinating Judge ("ACJ") in Part 40, working with the Administrative Judge ("AJ"), coordinates referral of these trial-ready cases to a trial Justice. Pure IAS Justices refer cases to the ACJ. Except for the AJ or ACJ, an IAS Justice will not refer a case directly to another Justice for trial.
In addition, there are, as noted, Commercial Division Parts. A number of Justices handle Article 81 matters and two Justices divide the large tax certiorari inventory. Finally, several Justices have been designated by the Administrative Judge to serve as part of a Center for Complex Litigation, which handles mass tort cases. The Justices so assigned are Justice Cynthia S. Kern (Part 55), Justice Martin Shulman (Part 1), and Justice Peter H. Moulton (Part 50). These Justices also maintain other assignments.
All cases seeking forfeiture of criminal proceeds or other remedy pursuant to Article 13-A of the Civil Practice Law and Rules are assigned to a single Justice (Justice Martin Shulman).
City cases are assigned in accordance with a protocol. For access to this protocol, click here.
For the current arrangement of all Parts and assignment of Justices thereto, click here.
Differentiated Case Management:
Under the concept of Differentiated Case Management ("DCM"), cases are assigned to a "track" upon filing of the RJI: standard, expedited or complex. See Uniform Rule 202.19. Medical Malpractice and Commercial Division cases are considered complex matters. All Motor Vehicle cases are treated as expedited matters upon filing. All other cases are treated as standard cases when filed, except for mass torts, tax certiorari cases and matrimonial matters, which have unique DCM tracks (20, 48, and six months respectively). Cases are assigned to the appropriate DCM track by the clerk upon filing of the RJI.
Pursuant to Uniform Rule 202.19 (b), a preliminary conference must be held within 45 days after the RJI is filed. The Rule is interpreted to mean that if the RJI accompanies a non-discovery motion, the conference shall be held within 45 days after the decision on the motion, assuming that the decision does not dispose of the case. If the RJI accompanies a disclosure motion, the preliminary conference shall be held within 45 days. See Uniform Rule 202.8 (f). At the preliminary conference, the court will consider requests by a party to modify the DCM track assigned upon filing of the RJI.
The time within which discovery must be completed according to the Rule varies depending on the track to which a case is assigned. Uniform Rule 202.19. The main deadlines are:
Expedited - Eight months
Standard - 12 months
Complex - 15 months
Despite the wording of Rule 202.19 (b) (2), the allotted time begins to run, not from the preliminary conference, but from filing of the RJI. These deadlines also constitute pre-note standards and goals for purposes of internal monitoring of case activity. Since these time frames are calculated from RJI, the court must be attentive to the early commencement of the discovery process even if the case is one in which a preliminary conference need not be held within 45 days due to the filing of a non-discovery motion at the outset of the case.
A compliance conference must be held no later than 60 days before the filing of the note of issue. Rule 202.19(b) (3).
Within 180 days from filing of the note of issue, a pretrial conference must be held at which the court will fix a date for commencement of trial, which is to be no later than eight weeks after the conference date. Rule 202.19 (c).
Despite the immediately preceding paragraph, the standard and goal for cases post-note is 15 months (in matrimonial cases it is six months). The court system also keeps data on the overall standards and goals (pre-note and post-note combined).
The applicable standards and goals - - pre-note, post-note, and both combined - - are recorded in the Civil Case Information System ("CCIS") computer program for each case depending upon the DCM track to which the case is assigned. Attorneys who consult CCIS or the court's Supreme Court Records On-Line Library ("Scroll") on this website, or who receive case information, which is CCIS-based, from the court system's free case tracking service, e-Track, or attorneys' service companies may note or receive information reflecting these deadlines. The computer will show, for instance, for a standard case a note of issue deadline of 12 months running from the filing of the RJI, a deadline for disposition of the case of 15 months running from the note-of-issue deadline date, and an overall deadline for the case of 27 months running from the filing of the RJI. Rule 202.19 (b) (2) provides that the time frames set forth in the Rule "must be complied with unless otherwise shortened or extended by the court depending upon the circumstances of the case." The actual date by which a note of issue must be filed in any particular case or the trial date are the dates directed by the Justice assigned.
In City cases, a unique set of DCM procedures are applied. See below.
Pre-note and trial procedures are set forth in the Uniform Rules of the Justices and, for Commercial Division cases, the Rules of the Commercial Division Justices.
The Neutral Evaluation Program:
When a note of issue is filed in a case in the General inventory (i.e., in one of the pure IAS General Assignment Parts), in a Motor Vehicle case, or in a commercial case outside the Commercial Division, the matter is promptly referred to the court's Neutral Evaluation Program (known informally as "Mediation"). These cases are conferenced by two Neutral Evaluation Attorneys, senior Court Attorneys with special experience and expertise in settlements, and settlement is explored in detail.
The procedures of the Program are explained in the Program Protocol.
Trial Activity:
When a case is sent out for jury selection, the attorneys will be given a jury slip and must report immediately to the Central Jury Room. A jury will be selected in accordance with Uniform Rule 202.33. There is a five-day maximum time during which a selected jury may wait for trial to begin. Time spent on telephone standby ("TCI") is included. After five days the jury must be disbanded.
Placement of Cases for Trial:
Cases reach the Jury Room from the pure IAS Parts, the Administrative Judge, and the Administrative Coordinating Part (Part 40). The Justice assigned to a pure IAS Part who sends a case to the Jury Room will try that case. If the IAS Justice cannot try a case, it will be sent to the Administrative Coordinating Judge. Cases processed through Part 40 will be assigned for trial in accordance with the directives of the Administrative Coordinating Judge.
City DCM - Overview:
The court operates an automated Differentiated Case Management Program for tort cases in the City Parts, i.e., those in which the City of New York is a party and in which the City is represented by the Tort Division of the Corporation Counsel's Office. Not included in this Program are special proceedings and City contract, medical malpractice, and lead paint cases. The aims of the Program are to expedite cases, minimize litigation expense, conserve the time of counsel, promote efficiency, and permit the City Justices to concentrate the bulk of their time on the resolution of substantive issues and trial of City cases.
Setting a Disclosure Schedule in City DCM Cases:
Upon the filing of a request for judicial intervention and a request for a preliminary conference in a City DCM case, the following procedures will be utilized to schedule discovery. If the RJI is filed with a non-discovery motion, this process will be followed after disposition of the motion, assuming that the decision does not dispose of the case. If the RJI is filed with a discovery motion, the motion will be referred to the court's Case Management Office for the scheduling of a conference or the issuance of a Case Scheduling Order.
Instead of requiring that attorneys appear in court for a preliminary conference, the court will issue a Case Scheduling Order. City cases are presumed to be standard cases under the DCM regime, meaning that discovery is to be completed within 12 months from filing of the RJI. However, where the RJI is accompanied by a motion, 12 months will be allowed for discovery commencing from the time the motion is resolved, if the case remains active after the decision. The standard-form Order will contain provisions for items of discovery generally necessary in the major varieties of City case. Deadlines for the completion of the pertinent items of discovery within the overall 12-month time frame will be set forth.
The Order will include an EBT date furnished by the City. Since the City will know the type of case involved at this early point and can take that into account when determining an appropriate EBT date, the expectation of the court is that the date is more likely to prove realistic than has been the case in the past under a non-automated system and to require at most only modest adjustments to suit the schedules of the parties. In order, however, that an EBT date can be arrived at for inclusion in the order, the City must have been previously supplied with a bill of particulars; the EBT date shall be consistent with the completion of all disclosure within the DCM track deadline, as shall be specified in the case scheduling order. Counsel in these cases are advised to provide the City with a bill of particulars forthwith, if one has not already been served.
The deadlines and the form of the Order were arrived at by the court after extensive consultations between representatives of the City of New York and plaintiffs' counsel on, and other members of, this court's Tort Advisory Committee. To consult a copy of this form Order, click here.
Once a case scheduling order has been signed by the Justice assigned to the case, a copy will be posted in the Supreme Court Records On-Line Library ("SCROLL"). Counsel must consult SCROLL to obtain a copy of the order as a copy will no longer be mailed to counsel. All relevant deadlines, including the date for a compliance conference, will be set forth in the case scheduling order. Attorneys may obtain, at no charge, e-mail notification regarding issuance of the scheduling order and all other developments in their City cases and other cases by listing their cases with e-Track, the court system's case tracking service.
Any challenges to the Case Scheduling Order are to be brought to the attention of the Case Management Coordinators, who are senior court clerks specially designated to serve in this role. A conference will promptly be arranged by the Coordinator. If good reason is presented for doing so, modifications will be made to the Order. However, failure to raise objections within the period fixed will result in waiver of those objections. If no objections are raised, the parties need not appear in court and the Order as framed will govern future disclosure in the case.
Failure to comply with the Order may result in the imposition of a penalty, such as waiver of the discovery, a financial sanction, preclusion, and the like.
Subsequent Disclosure Problems:
In the event any disclosure dispute arises after the discovery process begins, the party aggrieved shall promptly, prior to the deadline in question and before making a motion, inform the Case Management Coordinator of the existence of the dispute. The Case Management Coordinator will promptly schedule a conference at a convenient date and time.
Conferences about discovery problems and compliance conferences will take place before the Law Secretary of the Justice assigned to the case or Court Attorneys specially designated for this purpose. In the event that the problems raised cannot be resolved in this fashion, the matter will be referred to the assigned Justice.
The Case Scheduling Order will contain a date for a compliance conference. That conference will take place in a central location for all City DCM cases (Room 103 at 80 Centre Street).
Post-Note Procedures:
Immediately after the filing of the note of issue, a conference will be scheduled in all City cases before a Court Attorney. At this conference, an examination will be made of settlement prospects. Numbers of cases settle at this stage and counsel should therefore be prepared to discuss settlement in detail. The parties will also be called upon to review the state of discovery, which of course should have been completed by then. The court will confirm that the parties have received all discovery that was required, including that the City has in its file documents necessary to thorough settlement discussions, such as the relevant map in a slip and fall case. To the extent that any items have not been furnished by one side to the other, approprite directives will be made. It is important that this be done so that settlement discussions can be pursued thereafter, as discussed below, with all parties having in hand the information needed to evaluate the case and consider settlement.
As City cases pending on the City Waiting List near the top of the list, they will be referred to the Neutral Evaluation Program, described above. Attorneys for the plaintiffs will be required to bring their case file to conferences with a Neutral Evaluation Attorney so that discussions can be detailed and meaningful. If a City case does not reach settlement, it will be scheduled for a Last Clear Chance Conference before the Administrative Coordinating Judge. This represents the last opportunity to try to settle the case prior to jury selection. If the case is not settled at the Conference, it will appear in the Administrative Coordinating Part (Part 40 City) without fail exactly 14 days later, at which time it will be sent out for jury selection. For the form used to schedule the Last Clear Chance Conference, click here.
A similar automated approach is applied to Motor Vehicle cases, which, like the tort cases in the City Parts, tend to be homogeneous. As with the City cases, an automated Case Scheduling Order will be issued by the Case Management Office upon filing of an RJI accompanied by a request for a preliminary conference or a discovery motion, or after disposition by the court of a non-disclosure motion if the case remains active. To consult a copy of this form, click here. Motor Vehicle cases are presumed to be expedited cases. Objections to the Order will be addressed by conference call or conference. Should any disclosure difficulties arise thereafter, the Case Management Office must be advised immediately, in advance of the deadline in issue and prior to motion practice. Compliance conferences will be conducted as needed to assure compliance with the Order.

For the first time, the finals of "Dancing With the Stars" has three female celebrities going head-to-head for that sparkly Mirror Ball trophy. That means that for All-Star Season 15, it's also a war of the three male professional dancers/choreographers, and all three couples really hit the dance floor with fierce determination to win.
For a show that usually drags while it stuffs the time with filler instead of dancing, the one-hour performance final was sensational. The action moved right along with each couple first redoing one of their favorite dances that they thought they could improve, and then a super-sized freestyle with extra dancers and no rules on style, music, costumes or the dreaded lifts.
High-scorers for the night were Melissa Rycroft and Tony Dovolani, who were rewarded with two perfect 30's for their dances. The redo dance was a samba that scored 27 earlier in the season and this time was filled with tricks and plenty of dance moves. Judge Bruno Tonioli called Melissa, "deliciously irresistible," and applauded her growth in confidence. Judge Carrie Ann Inaba shouted, "Fabulous! Brilliant!" and head judge Len Goodman said Melissa was the "Carnival queen" and it was fabulous. Backstage, Melissa told co-host Brooke Burke-Charvet that they picked the samba because it was so different from their freestyle, and boy, was it! The pair performed a beautiful contemporary dance to Beyonce's 'I Was Here," that only had extra dancers performing in large aerial cubes over the stage. The focus was entirely on the pair, and Bruno described it as "a perfect setting to showcase Melissa's beautiful qualities. A gem." Carrie Ann said, "You took great risk and with great risk comes great reward -- freestyle jackpot!" And Len, who always something to say, was nearly at a loss for words: "Leonard Bernstein said, 'When passion's too much to talk, sing. When passion's too much to sing, dance.' That had passion, that was wonderful, it was truly ..." as his voice faltered, then "it was wonderful."
Coming up only one point off the perfect mark was Kelly Monaco, who is determined to prove that she really can dance, and partner Val Chmerkovskiy, whose redo dance was the paso doble that was given a 27 earlier. The dance would have been perfect, except for a moment when Kelly lost her grip on Val's hand, but she didn't let the small flub distract her and finished with flair -- and a kiss from Val on her nose. Len recalled that he said it was their best dance to date when they did it in Week 3, and he repeated the compliment: "Your best dance to date." Bruno called it "a thing of beauty," while Carrie Ann said she was proud of Kelly and that it was her "best dance even with the goof-up." Talking to Brooke as they waited for their scores, Kelly said, "I wanted to do my best each week .
The final couple of the trio to dance each time was Shawn Johnson and Derek Hough, who decided to ignore the judges, push the boundaries and break the rules in redoing their quickstep with all the lifts (not allowed) and breaks from hold (not allowed) that got them a 26.5 the first time around. Their opinion was that it was the audience who counted, not the scores, and that they dedicated the season to the audience. So who cares about rules? The judges sure do, even while they tried to reward them for excellent dancing. "It was a fantastic routine, a fan favorite," said Carrie Ann. "It's sad you didn't choose to follow the rules; at this point, points do matter, and I hope the risk pays off for you two." Both Len and Bruno agreed that it was a great routine but broke the rules of the quickstep. "Our scores are bound by the rules, but it doesn't take away from your achievement," Bruno said. Their score was 27. For their freestyle, the "Fierce Five," the U.S. Olympic champion gymnastics team, joined the pair on the floor for a performance that was like a cross between dance steps and a gymnastics floor exercise. The tricks, flips, tumbles and splits were blended with what Len called, "a medley of Derek and Shawn's greatest hits," while Bruno declared it to be "fierce, flawless, exciting, explosive brilliance." Carrie Ann shouted that it was "super-good, sensational. You do not disappoint," and they received perfect 10's.
So now it's up to the voting viewers to determine who will be Season 15's champion: the Season 8 champ and Olympic dynamo seeking recovery after not being able to make the London Olympic team; the former "Bachelor" contestant who was close but not the winner in Season 8; or the Season 1 champ who has had to defend her winning for 14 seasons. Even the partners have side stories -- it's rumored that this is Derek's last season, and Tony has waited for 14 seasons -- even trying to help Kate Gosselin look like a dancer -- to have a real chance at that trophy.
Tuesday's show will be two hours long, with some dancing. There is still a largely ceremonial "instant" dance where the pairs learn the dance -- be it jive, cha cha or samba -- and music for their dance only minutes before they must perform. Usually, the judges award perfect scores across the board. Who knows what the rest of the program will hold until the final moments when one couple will hold the Mirror Ball trophy aloft while confetti and streamers rain down on all. Who do you think should take home the trophy?
Celebrities and their scores:
Melissa & Tony: (samba) 10; 10; 10 = 30 + (freestyle) 10; 10; 10 = 30 = total 60
Kelly & Val: (paso doble) Carrie Ann, 9.5; Len, 10; Bruno, 10 = 29.5 + (freestyle) 10; 9.5; 10 = 29.5 = total 59
Shawn & Derek: (quickstep) 9; 8.5; 9.5 = 27 + (freestyle) 10; 10; 10 = 30 = total 57

STOCKTON – Officers from the state Department of Justice and Stockton police raided an illegal gambling establishment this morning, seizing weapons, drugs, at least 30 computers, cash counting machines and an ATM.
Following an eight-month undercover investigation, during which time D's Cyber Lounge moved from the 1100 block of Waterloo Road to its current location at 2550 E. Fremont St., agents observed numerous illegal activities including online gambling, prostitution and drug trafficking, according to police spokesman Officer Joe Silva.
Authorities believe the business raked in between $4,000 to $6,000 a day, or $35,000 a week. It received numerous complaints from surrounding businesses and residents for the clientele it attracted.

Dark Horse will be relieved to see I ran an extra 1/4 mile today to make up for the "fractured" distance I ran yesterday...
7 1/4 miles, I warmed for 1, then ran the next 6+ at what initially felt like marathon pace, but for the most part was a little fast. A helping wind on the way out, I hit 9:24 warming up, then ran an 8:43. That's about 15 seconds too fast, but with the wind at my back I decided to hold the effort. Miles 3 thru 6 went by in 8:40, 8:41, 8:47 and 8:52.
At 6 miles I passed the high school and decided to run the h.s. track for one lap to check my pace, I was still a little fast even into the wind. This little detour also makes everything right in my running log by adding back the 1/4 mile missing from yesterday's run.
Anyway, I ran that lap in 2:12, or an 8:48 pace, so my road splits were good. Last mile went by in 8:58.
Mike, I have to agree we're fortunate we're willing and able to run. I thank my lucky stars every day...
Enjoy life, this ain't a rehearsal...
Rich, good run. I am glad to see the disturbance in the Force has been resolved.
Good runs, everybody. I enjoy the running talk; it gives me food for thought.
No run yesterday, because I wanted to give my right knee a rest. It wasn't hurting, but I thought it was the right thing to do after Tuesday's hard run.
Today I went to the gym and ran 5 miles on the treadmill, 1% incline, in 39:27 (7:53 mile pace). That's a pretty good run for me these days.
That gives me 13 miles for the week. Since I am going away for the weekend, that may be all the mileage I get this week. That's OK: I guess you could say I am in my "sharpening phase" for my 2-mile race next month. Seems kind of silly to look back and call three weeks of 20 mpw my "base phase," but it is what it is. We all do what we can. I probably wouldn't have gotten over 10 mpw without the inspiration here.
Today the local paper said a 60-year-old woman has now been hospitalized for EEE. I guess she's probably looking at death or brain damage. More schools are cancelling more activities. Public health officials are calling for everyone to wear long pants and long sleeves and use bug repellent if outside after 4 p.m. This afternoon we called Dark Colt at the library where he was studying and told him to come right home and change. Dark Colt is one of those kids who wears a t-shirt and shorts and sandals until the snow is a foot deep. He was about to head out to a house in the woods for his regular babysitting job, and if any place has mosquitoes, they do. He promised he would come home and change first, BUT HE DIDN'T. So Dark Mare drove to the house where he was babysitting with the clothes and bug repellent, and tomorrow he is grounded. This kid is cocky and thinks he is immortal. Last Sunday he passed his driving test so now he is licensed and dangerous. When I paid the lady at the driving school last week, she said, "Oh, him. We call him 'Lead-foot.'" Just what a parent likes to hear!!! Who remembers this song: "I told him, 'Son, you'll drive me to drinkin', if you don't stop driving that HOT. ROD. LINCOLN.'"
Dark Horse
I'm a dark horse, running on a dark race course.
I remember the words to the song, but can't remember by who.
Dark Horse, I think you've made great strides (pun intended) over the last month. You trippled your mileage and ran an excellent 5 miler today. And I notice there's no mention of knee pain, is it getting better?
Good luck with "Leadfoot", teenagers keep you on your toes, don't they? lol
Enjoy life, this ain't a rehearsal...

No. But I am icing it after every run, and hoping for the best. Where would we runners be, without a nagging injury to complain about?
Dark Horse
I'm a dark horse, running on a dark race course.
It turned out being a bike day for me as I promised someone to do so. We biked for maybe an hour and a half.
It is an aerobic exercise according to my heart monitor, but it never feels to be as good a workout as running.
The EEE plaque is really a frightening phenomenon, when you have to be fearful just going outside after 4:00. It is doubly scary when your kids are involved. I doubt my 14 year old daughter would listen to my warnings. Be safe, DH. Plus your times on the treadmill were smokin in my opinion.
I am going to attempt 6 miles tomorrow with a 10 miler on Saturday to make my 25. Depending on how I feel, I might have to split the 10 between Sat and Sun. As the running couch Hal Higdon says, "just get the miles in even if you have to walk some of it". It is important just learning to be on your feet for longer stretches. I really want to get the twenty five, short of injury.
Rich, hope your tapering is going well. Sounded like you were running well, albeit a little fast.

Share your experiences with the Franklin First Fiddlin' Fish 5K Run and 1 Mile Walk below Back to event details page.
The venue of Historic Downtown Franklin was nice. The relative later start of 8:30 was a good idea considering all the other 5 k's on the same day. They ran out of numbers even for the preregistered runners, which means the organizers need to do better planning. The awards were pastries, which is nice, as most of the award winners are not on a diet, (insert smiley face here.) The course is rolling hills out and back and was well monitored. There was plenty of water and orange sections at the finish line. There was no plan for the finish times except for 6 or 7 people with note pads trying to write down numbers and then looking at the clock for the time.
Altogether I think everyone had a good time and it was for a good cause.
I've run this race twice and enjoy the course and the cause. As a frequent "road racer" I would appreciate a few things to better organize the event (i.e., having enough numbers and t-shirts, a more efficient timing system, a more organized award session, etc.), but overall I enjoy the fun, the atmosphere, and the relatively easy course. It is nice to have the support along the race route, and would be nice if they offered mile markers or times along the way, but either way it's nice to have cheerleaders. Fun race, fun times, and great prizes (food!).
The event was great. The venue is perfect. The cause, helping the families of children with serious medical conditions, is outstanding. The security along the course was very good; the music was very good; recognizing the sponsors was very good. This event will continue to grow. Thanks and congratulations to the organizers and event leadership for a job well done. Children are the big winners!
I loved the family-friendly atmosphere. Great security on the roads and great atmosphere. Can't wait for next year!
Was great for my 5 year old grandson - straight out and back 1 mile run with no confusing turns. Prizes were toys for all. The 5K is a bit hilly and a good spring challenge.
Definitely low key with cakes and cookies for top finishers. Monies go to a great cause. Race has grown from 250 to over 400 in one year and is simply a lot of fun. There are no timing chips and race times are not published so its not for everyone.

"The cards felt of quality in your hands. They were not only beautiful with a black and white photo, they looked elegant and felt elegant."
"I loved the way the picture took up the whole card with cheerful overprinting of text. In combination with the animated expressions on my grandsons' faces, the text gave the perfect enthusiastic greeting."
"As always, the customer service and timeliness from Tiny Prints was excellent. I have been a repeat customer for nearly five years and this card has received the most compliments by far. Love this design, the graphic online does not do it justice!"
"This card is stylish without being over the top! I love the matte card stock with the pearl finish. It gives it that shimmery look that you wouldn't get with the plain matte finish. You should be aware that because this is a square card it is about $.20 more per card to send via snail mail...not a deal breaker for me because I only send out about 30, but for someone who sends out a lot of cards this might deter you. Otherwise, this is a great card and I would recommend it."
"The card is absolutely beautiful; the printing and picture quality is outstanding. I also appreciate the expedited delivery as I was running out of holiday time. I will definitely be using your services in the future!"

CASTRO VALLEY -- The Castro Valley Sanitary District is offering a free tour of the Davis Street Transfer Station in San Leandro.
Although the tour is not until Sept. 20, those interested are encouraged to register soon. There are only 20 spots, and past tours have filled up quickly. The tour is for district residents and business owners only.
The transfer station processes and sorts 4,000 tons of recyclable and compostable materials a day. A popular part of the tour is the single-stream materials recovery building, which features a high-tech optical sorter, said Pat Krevey of the sanitary district.
The tour takes three hours, and starts at the sanitary district's office in Castro Valley.
"We do provide transportation to Davis Street if they want to ride the bus," Krevey said. "And they are more than welcome to provide their own transportation. We just need to coordinate with them."
Krevey added that the tour involves walking, including over uneven terrain and on stairs.
Those interested may register at www.cvsan.org/dststour or call the district office at 510-537-0757 and ask for Krevey.

Fire officials suspect foul play on a fire that took a house located near 7th Ave. N in St. James this last spring.
Officials are urging anyone with information to call 1-800-723-2020. Rewards of up to $2,500 will be given to individuals with any information leading to the identification of persons responsible for the fire.
Initial reports indicated that the fire began on the southeast side of the home, but quickly spread to the rest of the house. Local fire departments continued to work on the home until 1:25 a.m. when they finally left for the night.
Fire consumed home at near 7th Ave. N in less than six minutes and the house was a total loss. It is scheduled to be removed from the property July 15.
According to the USFA's National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) from 2008 through 2010, an estimated 16,800 intentionally set residential fires occur annually in the United States.
These fires result in an estimated 280 deaths, 775 injuries, and $593 million in property loss each year. The average dollar loss for an intentionally set fire in a residential building is $21,320.
The fatality rate for intentionally set residential fires was more than twice that of other residential building fires.
Arson is also dangerous for those individuals looking to fight the fire. Firefighters risk their lives so they can save people from burning buildings. Every fire is a danger to a firefighter and the people living at the fire-site.
