Eyesight is among the very most significant perceptions for our aged population. Great eyesight enables them liberty and autonomy to drive themselves to appointments and tasks together with to read, sew, do puzzles or see television. Not all eyesight reduction is inevitable along with a process can help.
The skin round the eyes is thin and the most soft. As we this skin stretches, get older and the eye muscles weaken. This procedure does not change every day life and occurs for some. For others, the specific situation is serious. Some blepharoplasty patients maintain they felt tired after eight or more hours of slumber and that before eyelid operation, their eyelids felt heavy. Many never understood until having an eye exam that their vision was undermined.
In the event the above describes how you are feeling these days, maybe it is time and see if blepharoplasty will be able to allow you to recover your complete array of eyesight in addition to allow you to look more and feel.
The Process
It was created to correct drooping upper eyelids and loose lower eyelids. Most eyesight difficulties happen when the top eyelids droop into the sphere of sight.
Blepharoplasty is not going to remove wrinkles or lines and isn't a repair for dark circles under the eyes.
You can talk about the likelihood of general anesthesia by means of your surgeon, in the event you are particularly nervous about local anesthesia.
The aim is to create natural-appearing eyelids and restore your complete array of eyesight. The incisions are modest enough that after healing is complete will see the incision place.
Most folks feel good enough to resume regular activities after seven to 10 days although healing is a slow process. Besides the advantage of better eyesight, patients report feeling and looking younger after eyelid operation and refreshed.
When eyelid surgery is recognized as essential to restore eyesight, Medicare and most insurance companies cover the costs related to the process. But should you decide to get other cosmetic procedures like facelift or a browlift, you may be completely responsible for those prices.
If you living near NSW Sydney, Australia area and you're considering eyelid surgery or any other plastic surgery procedure, you may contact www.Beautification.com.au for a cosmetic consultation.

Hi, I'm using PS3 Media Server 1.72.0 to stream from my Macbook (10.8.2) to a WDTV live. Everything works fine except that any track in itunes Library that is a purchased .aac-file is marked (ffmpeg Audio) and will not be played (it'll play for 3 or 4 seconds silently and then skip to the next title). All .mp3 files are played without problems.
Any idea what kind of issue this is?
Thanks for the help

Fleet-footed and skillful, Liverpool's youngest player Raheem Sterling is getting noticed around the league for his creativity and attacking force. He came to Liverpool's academy from Queens Park Rangers in 2010. Sterling made his senior debut with Liverpool on March 24, 2012, the second youngest player to do so at 17 years and 107 days. Born in Kingston, Jamaica with English citizenship, he has represented England at every level from U16 upwards.
This is Liverpool's new away jersey for the 13/14 season.
Inspired by the patterns and graphics on kits from the 1980s and 1990s, Liverpool's away jersey is a modern take on a classic. The neckline from the 1981 away kit has been redesigned for a contemporary feel, and the diamond pattern is a nod to the graphics on the 1989-1991 jerseys.
A nod to the past with a look to the future, we're proud to wear this jersey in support of The Reds!

Natasha Trethewey was born on April 26, 1966, in Gulfport, Mississippi. She earned an MA in poetry from Hollins University and an MFA in poetry from the University of Massachusetts.
Her first collection of poetry, Domestic Work (Graywolf Press, 2000), was selected by Rita Dove as the winner of the inaugural Cave Canem Poetry Prize for the best first book by an African American poet and won both the 2001 Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters Book Prize and the 2001 Lillian Smith Award for Poetry.
Since then, she has published three more collections of poetry, including Thrall (Houghton Mifflin, 2012); Native Guard (Houghton Mifflin, 2006), which received the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry; and Bellocq's Ophelia (Graywolf Press, 2002).
In her introduction to Domestic Work, Rita Dove said, "Trethewey eschews the Polaroid instant, choosing to render the unsuspecting yearnings and tremulous hopes that accompany our most private thoughts—reclaiming for us that interior life where the true self flourishes and to which we return, in solitary reverie, for strength."
Trethewey's honors include the Bunting Fellowship from the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the Rockefeller Foundation. She is the Robert W. Woodruff Professor of English and Creative Writing at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.
In 2012, Trethewey was named as both the state poet laureate of Mississippi and the 19th U.S. poet laureate by the Library of Congress. In 2013, she was appointed for a second term, during which she travelled to cities and towns across the country meeting with the general public to seek out the many ways poetry lives in American communities and reported on her discoveries in a regular feature on the PBS NewsHour Poetry Series. She was succeeded in 2014 by Charles Wright.

Well I went to PT. I tested out well strength wise, no pain. This therapist wants me to do toe exercises for 2 weeks and come back! She was like, "what do you want to run, a mile?" She has obviously never run, and thinks people who do are nuts. I'm pretty much done with her, especially since my doctor told me I would be running in 2 weeks and it's been 4! I'll keep doing the exercises they gave me because all of them have improved the strength and flexibility of my legs, also my balance. She said she didn't want me to walk more than a mile right now (laugh), I'M SORRY BUT I GOT TO GO!!!
So my plan is to speak with my nephew, the sports therapist tomorrow morning. I'd really like to try a little running tomorrow. I bet he'll agree.
So AngelSmitty, let me confirm with you after I speak with him but, I am hoping to try for W1D1 tomorrow. At the latest Monday.
I don't know who's still reading this thread but.....
I believe after six weeks I have recovered from my ITBS/knee problems. Itching to get back on the road. Spoke with my nephew the sports trainer and he said they alway urge athletes with injuries to get back on the horse as soon as you can. He said you lose the fitness level you had before the injury making it harder to recover. Makes sense to me.....so
I'm restarting from W1D1 tomorrow Monday, October 4th. I'll jump ahead if I find it too easy. Anybody on this thread need to "do over"? If you do, put your running shoes back on and join me. We all know what the winter months do to us. Not this year! No way!
AngelSmitty-Are you ready? Let's hit the road!
I am going to start a new thread for us "do over" people so watch for it. And with me luck and injury free running.
I definitely am ready for a do-over!! I did W1D1 outside on Saturday and boyyyyy was it ROUGH! I had a deep purple face and felt like I was dying during the last two jogs. I think part of my problem is that I'm just getting over a cold, so my throat and nose aren't totally clear (sorry if that's TMI), so it was hard to get a good breathing rhythm going while I was jogging, without coughing and feeling like I was going to be sick lol. Yesterday, I decided to just do 4 miles on my mom's stationary bike, but will be doing W1D2 tonight on her treadmill. I think I want to mix it up between treadmill and outside (depending on the weather) because last time, I definitely noticed it was easier on the treadmill. My friend LOVES to run (did 625 miles last year, just for fun-I can't imagine that) and decided that she wants me to attempt a half-marathon with her next year. 13.1 miles HAHA. I asked her if she was drunk when she brought it up. However, I did tell her that I would work to get at least 1.5 to 2 miles by Thanksgiving, when she'll be home to visit. I figure, I'll almost be done the program by then, so I should be able to handle 1.5 miles, right? The half marathon thing though trips me out though. She just completed one yesterday in 2 hours and 15 minutes. If I'm struggling to just jog (very slowly) ONE minute, how will I ever build up to 2 HOURS? We'll see though, I'm hoping if I just keep with it, it won't seem so bad in the end. She said once you get past 3 miles, it becomes easier. I'm wondering if anyone who completed the program and still runs can verify that for me?
So glad someone else will be starting it up with me!! Let me know how today goes for you, Melinda!
AngelSmitty - This morning I made it through W1D1. The knee was a little stiff and slow to respond, but I'm sure the more I run the better it will be. The run intervals went well. I guess I didn't diminish as much of my stamina as I thought. I couldn't believe when the podcast called for the 90 walk. Now having said that, I don't know how sore I will be tonight or tomorrow. :-))) Tomorrow I will just do all my exercises and stretches from PT, with a 10 minute elliptical warm up first.
Keep going girlfriend! Together we can do this. Last time I repeated weeks 4 and 5. Everybody is different. Just listen to your body. I might not be able to walk tomorrow. I am so glad you are in with me.
Thank you.
Hey folks I'm still here!
I'll probably do a Halloween 5K, and I'm registered for one in mid November. That'll probably be it for the year unless I come across something else.
I registered for the Pittsburgh half Marathon on May 16th, 2011. So that's my next big goal. I can't believe it's come this far!
I hope everyone is doing well!

Sorry I haven't posted. Did W2D1 on Wednesday. Pouring rain so ran inside. I hate the treadmill!
This morning in the sun I ran W2D3. Next Monday will be W3D1.
AngelSmitty are you out there?
Tony - You are sooo awesome! Your updates lift me up. I can't wait till I can get through the program and do my first 5k. The key for me is to stay injury free. My nephew registered for a half marathon in Nashville in the spring. I told him hopefully I will be ready for he and I to do our 5k around Thanksgiving.
Keep up the good work, and please keep posting.
Yes, I'm here! Sorry, I was out of town! Still working on Week 1, but planning to be on Week 2 by next week!
AngelSmitty - That's great. I am glad you are still with me. If you get a chance look at the "Anybody Need a Do-Over" thread. We have a pretty good group going there. I did W3D2 this morning pretty slowly. It's not easy to see in the dark. I am hoping my Saturday run will be quicker.
Keep up the good work.
Any of you folks still out there? Curious who is still running a year and a half later....I had to stop when I first started with you all and one more time but was able to graduate this summer.

TAHOE CITY, Calif. - Those who cross-country ski and snowshoe will have a new facility to enjoy recreational activities this winter.
The Tahoe City Public Utility District, in partnership with Tahoe Cross Country Ski Area and Duncan Golf Management, will open the Tahoe City Golf Course to winter recreational activities from Dec. 22 to March 31, weather permitting, as part of a pilot program.
"I think it's a tremendous resources for our community," said Cindy Gustafson, district general manager. "It's what we've heard in response to many, many community meetings about trying to build more recreational activities for Tahoe City in the winter months."
Activities that will be permitted on the dog-friendly golf course are cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, walking and sledding. The golf course will operate from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day from Dec. 22 to Jan. 6, and every Friday through Monday from Jan. 7 to March 31, with rental equipment and food and beverages provided by Tahoe Cross Country and Duncan Golf Management, respectively, all of which will be available at the golf club house.
On Friday, Nov. 16, the TCPUD board of directors unanimously approved the use of up to $40,000 of property tax revenue to be invested in the program. Tahoe Cross Country will invest approximately $5,000 through the purchase of rental equipment, while the value of Duncan Golf Management's financial investment can't be determined at this time, said Bob Bolton, director of the parks and recreation.
There will be a use cost on days of operation along with fees for rental equipment and food and beverages, he said.
"(They) still yet to be finalized," Bolton said. "... The idea is that nobody is going to lose money on this, but we're not going to price out the community, so it will be a fair cost that will try to make us all break even."
For days the golf course isn't operated, it will be open free of charge to cross-country skiers, snowshoers and walkers, with donations accepted, but sledding will not be allowed.
"That needs to be supervised, and they can only use the rental sleds that we provide on that sled hill," Bolton said. "That's a real small tot sled hill. The intent is not for the bigger kids or adults; it's more for small families."
The trails will be groomed daily by Tahoe Cross Country, with a packed trail along the edge of the property for walking, and parallel to that will be the main ski trail with additional trails to "add some variety," said Kevin Murnane, Tahoe XC general manager.
The ski perimeter will be between 2 and 2.5 kilometers, he said, which roughly translates to more than a mile, but less than two.
"(The) Tahoe City's PUD and Parks and Rec is about providing recreation for the community, so that is the goal," Bolton said.
"We're all recognizing this as a pilot program ... so we're not taking on a whole lot of risk," Bolton said earlier. "We're also looking at a 50/50 percent share on profits, and if there is some reason for some losses, we're looking at the offsets would come from a reduced revenue from the operations that we already have."
Bolton said adjustments deemed necessary will be made throughout the winter, with public input - which is welcome - having a big impact.
"We're hoping for it to be a success and grow," he said. "We intend to add more amenities next winter if we feel we've got success this year."
TCPUD, in partnership with the North Lake Tahoe Resort Association, Truckee Tahoe Airport District and Placer County, purchased the property this spring for about $4.7 million.
A property oversight committee composed of the funding partners had its first meeting Nov. 7, which focused on future group function, said Sandy Evans Hall, CEO and executive director of the North Lake Tahoe Chamber/CVB/Resort Association, who was present at the meeting. The next oversight committee meeting is scheduled for January 2013, Hall said, the date of which has yet to be determined.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The top leaders in both parties on the House and Senate Agriculture committees have agreed to a one-year extension of the 2008 farm bill that expired in October, a move that would head off a possible doubling of milk prices next month.
Senate Agriculture Committee Chairman Debbie Stabenow indicated that the House could vote on it as early as Sunday evening. The agreement to extend current farm law until next October was reached as negotiators hit a snag on averting a broader fiscal cliff combination of higher taxes and spending cuts Jan. 1.
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said Americans faced the prospect of paying $7 for a gallon if the current dairy program lapsed and the government returned to a 1948 formula for calculating milk price supports.

HHS falls to East Surry in 1-A regional semifinals
Published: Friday, March 8, 2013 at 6:20 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 8, 2013 at 6:20 p.m.
GREENSBORO — They weren't flashy and they didn't do anything fancy, but disciplined repetition — like they've done throughout the entire postseason — was what punched No. 14 seed East Surry's ticket to today's 1-A West Regional championship game instead of No. 1-seeded Hendersonville.
The Cardinals (19-11) went on a 27-17 fourth-quarter run on their way to the 73-65 win over Hendersonville Friday night at UNC Greensboro's Fleming Gymnasium to deny the Bearcats entry into the Regional final and continue their own fairy-tale postseason run.
"They're methodical. They don't get rattled, and they lull you to sleep by doing the same thing over and over," HHS head coach Marvin Featherstone said of East Surry. "They didn't do anything that changed what we normally do but in the fourth quarter they wanted it more than we did."
Just two Bearcats were in double figures for the night, Shawn Rogers (23 points, five assists, four steals, four rebounds) and Rishad Felton (18 points, three steals, two rebounds) compared to five for the Cardinals, but even Hendersonville's leading scorers could hardly sink a basket in the second half.
Although HHS battled back from a 19-15 first-quarter deficit to take a 39-35 halftime lead, East Surry outscored HHS 38-26 in the second half. The Cardinals shot more than 70 percent from the field in the second half while the Bearcats shot just 33 percent.
"We got off to a slow start to begin with and battled back early. We got an eight-point lead to start the third quarter, but after that we went totally flat. They put some defensive pressure on us and the shots we normally hit weren't falling (Friday) night," Featherstone said.
Hendersonville got out of its rhythm in more ways than one. The Bearcats forced East Surry to score more points than it typically does, but that was about the only thing HHS dictated.
"We normally have that spurt where we make a run, and we didn't have that. Our run was in the second quarter and we were coming from behind," Featherstone said. "Their inside guys moved my big guys out of the way and my guys never stood their ground. That was the difference. They rebounded well and boxed us out. We didn't get many second-chance shots (Friday) night."
Hendersonville's six fouls to East Surry's zero midway through the third quarter soon pushed the Cardinals into the bonus for the remainder of the game. East Surry was 15-for-24 from the foul line but the Bearcats were just 5-for-7.
Hendersonville shot 50 percent from behind the arc in the first quarter but was just seven percent in the second half. Felton, normally a 41 percent 3-point shooter, finished at 28.6 percent (4-for-14) on the night. Rogers was 3-for-10 from the 3-point range with his three 3s coming in the first half.
Together the duo scored 19 of HHS's 26 second-half points.
"Shawn and Rishad played up to what was expected of them. They did everything they could to keep us in the game," Featherstone said of his two seniors with Regional experience. "These two have been with me through my three seasons as varsity head coach. It's going to be hard to part ways with them. The three of us have built a special bond from the time we've spent together."
The Bearcats finished out their season at 24-4.
East Surry will play Winston-Salem Prep at 1:30 this afternoon in the Regional final after W-S defeated North Rowan in double overtime.
7:15 p.m.: End of first quarter, East Surry 19, Hendersonville 15
7:20: Hendersonville now up 26-19 in the second... 11 straight points by the Bearcats.
7:25 p.m.: East Surry goes on 10-2 run, leads 29-28 in closing minutes of half.
7:29 p.m.: HALFTIME: Hendersonville 39, East Surry 35. Rishad Felton knocks down a 3 right before halftime.

MULLINGAR, Ireland (WOMENSENEWS)-- On July 7, Katie Taylor, the world champion of female boxing, won her fifth European Union Amateur Boxing Championship title for Ireland in Keszthely, Hungary.
Over all, the Irish women's team came away from the 23-nation tournament with 15 medals; a record for Irish boxing. Taylor, Kristina O' Hara, Grainne Gavin, Jacqui Lynch and Amy Broadhurst all received gold medals in the 7th European Union Women's Senior, Youth and Junior Championships.
However, none of their fights were televised.
"We still don't get equal publicity with the men," said Taylor in a phone interview, a few days after the Irish team returned home to Dublin from the tournament, and hours before Taylor jetted to New York for a holiday. "I've worked my whole life to get where I am and no television coverage for those fights is not fair."
Taylor has now won 15 major gold medals since 2005 and is the reigning Olympic, World, European, EU and Irish lightweight champion. She is planning to fight professionally for the first time in her career.
In September or October, Taylor will enter the World Series of Boxing (WSB), a professional competition in which amateurs are encouraged to take part. Taylor describes the opportunity as a "transitional event," where she will fight, for the first time, without head gear and compete for prize money.
"There are no women boxing in the WSB so it will be another first and I really embrace it," said Taylor. "But again it's not easy for women boxers to move from amateur to professional ranks." Taylor will face another woman in the competition but doesn't know yet who she will box against.
"If a man won the Olympic gold and turned professional the contracts coming in would be huge, but the signing on contracts are not as good for a woman," added Taylor, who has longstanding sponsorship deals with Toyota, Adidas, Lucozade and Sky Sports Television.
But money was never her goal. "As a little girl, I always knew there was an Olympic champion inside me," said Taylor. "But I had no idea how hard it was for women's boxing to get the recognition it deserves, and that has been the fight of my life."
Family Tradition
Growing up in Bray, a small fishing town in County Wicklow on Ireland's East coast, Taylor hung around a local boxing club, Saint Fergal's, where her father worked as a trainer. "My father was a boxer and my two brothers box, so it was in the family," said Taylor, who started training when she was just 10 years old. "At that time there were no women boxers in Ireland, I was the only one, so it was very difficult to get fights," said the 27-year-old, who is still trained by her father, Pete Taylor.
The aspiring Olympian started making history at 15, when she won the first officially sanctioned women's bout ever held in Ireland. And at 17, she became the first Irish woman to win a gold medal at the Senior European Boxing Championships. But for Taylor these early accolades didn't bring enough recognition to the sport.
"There was a lot of negative talk about women's boxing and there have been a lot of setbacks along the way, particularly the decision not to allow women's boxing in the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008; that was heartbreaking at the time," she said. "But I knew it would eventually get in the Olympics because the standard was so high."
At the London 2012 Olympic Games, Taylor completed her lifetime dream by winning an Olympic gold medal when she beat Russia's Sofya Ochigava, 10-8, in the women's lightweight final at the ExCel Arena. "My whole career led up to that point and it surpassed all my expectations."
As a boxing ambassador, Taylor says her Olympic crown has brought with it a great level of responsibility. "It's not about winning medals it's about how I live my life and my relationship with God that makes me who I am," said Taylor, a devout Christian. "It's very important for young girls to have strong role models with good morals to look up to because there are so many bad role models out there."
Sexualizing the Sport
Taylor also believes that promoters and advertisers tend to sexualize images of women in sport in order to up the profile of their game, whatever that game may be.
Earlier this year, the Amateur International Boxing Association faced heavy criticism after suggesting that female boxers wear mini-skirts in order to distinguish themselves from the men during international competitions.
"It was something we were all against because it demeans the sport," said Taylor, whose campaigning played a pivotal role in having the uniform rule amended to allow for a choice between shorts or a skirt. "We want to be treated like any other boxer and no one is going to force me to go into the ring with a skirt on."
Taylor added that, "Sport can be used as a tool to empower women, but sexism and discrimination still exist," saying she has also experienced gender inequality in other sports she has played, including soccer and Gaelic (Irish) football.
Discover Football, a Berlin-based nonprofit, is dedicated to advancing gender equity, emancipation and women's rights through football, or soccer as it's called in the United States.
"It's OK for women to do yoga or to dance, but generally not to play a sport in which they fight or have physical contact," said Pia Mann, an amateur German soccer player, who belongs to Discover Football.
'Second-Class Athletes'
When asked about the possibility of sports women turning professional, Mann's response echoed that of Taylor. "Female athletes are oftentimes seen as 'second-class' athletes and for many becoming a professional is just not really an option. In fact, most female professional football players have other jobs in order to make a living."
She added that, "female football players are oftentimes considered 'wanna-be' men, which in turn is usually associated with lesbianism…The media prefer sports in which women dress or behave in a 'gender conforming' way, like tennis for example."
Former Longford County footballer Geraldine McManus agrees that media coverage is hard on female sports and athletes. "If you open the sports section of any national newspaper it is littered with images of men not women," she said. "Last year the women's All Ireland Final had to be put back a week so the men's All-Ireland hurling final could be replayed; that is discrimination."
Claire O'Carroll, a spokesperson with Irish Feminist Network, a Dublin-based voluntary group committed to advancing gender equality in all aspects of Irish society, said that for change to happen in sports, women's bodies must be illustrated in the way the male body is: as a vehicle of achievement.
"By the Irish media promoting women in sport and highlighting the great achievements of our sporting stars, like Katie Taylor, stereotypes can be broken down and sport can be something to be enjoyed, not an occasional activity come summer to meet the male gaze," she said.

1) Determine who is one of the most prolific fathers in your genealogy database or in your ancestry. By prolific, the one who fathered the most children.
2) Tell us about him in your own blog post, in comments to this blog post, or in comments on Facebook.
My most prolific father was Jefferson Haynes (1852-1928), who had seven (7) children by his first wife Sarah Wilkinson (1855-1890) whom he married around 1875 in Leon County, Texas and (25) twenty-five children with his second wife Mattie Perkins (1867-1923) whom he married on 16 Feb 1893 in Leon County, Texas. Between his two wives, he had a total of (32) thirty-two children. Of the (32) thirty-two children, (26) twenty-six lived to adulthood.
Jefferson, the eldest son of Isaac and Adelaide (Brumby) Haynes, was born a slave in Alabama. According to oral history, the family along with the two other families (Brunson and Robinson) was owned by the Brumbys. They were brought to Texas during the Civil War around 1862. After the Civil War, Jefferson and his family eventually settled in the Friendship Community of Leon County, Texas. The community of Friendship is located about five miles south of Jewett and eight miles northwest of Centerville in northwestern Leon County. This was an African American settlement that was established after the Civil War.
Jefferson was a farmer who purchased his first 50 acres from his father in 1880. Over the course of his life time, he would purchase over 800 acres of land with silver dollars because he did not trust paper money. He was also an active member of the community who was respected by both African Americans and Whites.
At the time of his death, the land was divided between his (19) nineteen living heirs. Each heir was given approximately 31.5 acres.

As a child I remember dreary Christmases in England. Not only could the weather be foul and bitterly cold, but our home was, too. Yes, coal was in short supply for our fireplaces (homes were heated with coal in those days - no central heating) and for electricity plants (plenty of blackouts). The miners were on strike again, and the postmen, too, for that matter. Those were the days before Margaret Thatcher was elected to the post of Prime Minister and began to pull the nation out of its misery.
As people say today, Margaret Thatcher was "awesome." She saved Britain from disaster. Nationalized industries were sold off and brought back to profitability or closed. To provide just one example, the national airline, British Airways Corporation, BOAC, also known as "Better on a Camel," was merged with its European counterpart, BEA, and British Airways was formed. In the early 80s the airline was prepared for privatization, finally being privatized in 1987, in a hugely oversubscribed flotation. BA became a much improved and successful airline.
The Summit Daily's cartoon of "The Iron Lady" on April 11, 2013, really ticked me off, being an unfair portrayal of this brave and able woman. Yes, she was tough. The unions got hit and the Argentineans were beaten in a brief war, but she put the country back onto a path of economic recovery, where people could begin to prosper. However, the April 15 article by Doug Patton, "The Gipper and the Iron Lady tower over leaders", was much appreciated and provided welcome comment on this successful British Prime Minister and her buddy, President Ronald Reagan. It is a must read for all!

The Hercules High football team didn't possess the ball a great deal in the first half of Friday night's Tri-County Athletic League-Stone Division title game against host Kennedy-Richmond. But the Titans took advantage of the chances that they did have.
The Titans ran just 18 plays compared to 35 for Kennedy-Richmond but built a 10-0 first half lead on their way to a 34-14 win and the school's first ever football league title.
"It feels great," Hercules coach Gerald Montgomery said. "I've been here since 2005 after six different coaches in six years and it's finally turned around. The kids worked hard, bought into the program and we earned some respect tonight."
The Eagles (5-5, 4-1 TCAL-Stone) seemed to be in command midway through the second quarter, even though the game was scoreless. But Hercules used a turnover to get the first score.
After recovering a fumble in Kennedy territory, Louis Michael hit Antwuin Powers inside the 5-yard line for a 34 yard catch, then Michael pushed it in from one yard out three plays later.
The Titans (7-2, 5-0) needed just four plays to score on two possessions early in the second half. They opened the third quarter with a four-play drive, capped by a 1-yard plunge by Marquis Davenport. Then after Kennedy got on the board thanks to a 34-yard catch by Raysean Walker, Armani Reynolds returned the ensuing kick 78 yards for a score and a 24-8 lead.
Davenport's second score put the game away, as he returned an interception for 54 yards late in the fourth to make it a three-score game.
For Kennedy, Ernie Timoteo led a rushing attack that totaled nearly 300 yards as he had 186 yards on the ground.
Hercules, a Division III team, receives the TCAL-Stone Division's automatic berth to the North Coast Section playoffs next week and may get to host a game next week. The Titans ended the regular season on a seven-game win streak but could end up as the No. 8-10 seed in the deep division.
With the loss, Kennedy now has to apply for an at-large spot to the playoffs. Kennedy, a Division IV team, should make the 16-team field but will likely have to go on the road for its first game. Regardless, it would be the Eagles' first playoff appearance since 2004, when they made the NCS 2A East Bay bracket.
TCAL-Stone Hercules 34, Kennedy 14
Hercules 0 10 14 10-- 34
Kennedy 0 0 14 0-- 14
H -- Michael 1 run (Fonseca kick)
H -- Fonseca 29 FG
H -- Davenport 1 run (Fonseca kick)
K -- Walker 34 pass from Espinoza (Timoteo run)
H -- Reynolds 78 kick return (Fonseca kick)
K -- Qualls 1 run (run failed)
H -- Fonseca 41 FG
H -- Davenport 54 interception return (Fonseca kick)
Rushing: H -- Davenport 19-110, Bernstein 1-6, Michael 2-5, Bustos 2-0. Totals 24-121. K -- Timeteo 31-186, Qualls 17-81, Island 3-9, McKinley 1-7, Espinoza 3-5, Jammerson 2-3. Totals 57-291. Passing: H -- Michael 4-6-0 87, Powers 0-1-0 0, Dixon 1-1-0 (-1). Totals 5-8-0 86. K -- Espinoza 5-18-1 70. Receiving: H -- Reynolds 2-5, Davenport 1-39, Powers 1-34, Corbin 1-8. K -- Walker 2-54, Qualls 2-6, McKinley 1-10. Fumbles/lost: Hercules 0/0; Kennedy 2/1. Records: Hercules 7-2, 5-0 TCAL-Stone, Kennedy 5-5, 4-1.

Hotel developers, emboldened by a surge in revenue in the lodging market in Silicon Valley, want to add more than 650 rooms in San Jose, with Aloft, Hampton Inn and Marriott among the brands coming into the Bay Area's largest city.
"It's good that the market is recognizing that business travel is getting strong again in Silicon Valley," said Joseph Horwedel, city planning director.
One of the newest hotels in the works is a 175-room Aloft hotel slated to be developed in North San Jose at Highway 237 and Great America Parkway, Horwedel said.
Meanwhile, a 162-room Hampton Inn is being planned in downtown San Jose near the Highway 87 and Santa Clara Street interchange. Also under development is a 321-room Marriott on North First Street at Skyport Drive that's being erected by Barry Swenson Builder.
And a Marriott Courtyard is headed for a North San Jose site at North First Street and Highway 237, according to Horwedel. The number of rooms wasn't immediately known.
"We're seeing a big increase in revenue for hotels in the Silicon Valley market," said Wilson Wang, director of operations with Irvine-based Atlas Hospitality Group, which tracks the California hotel market.
The Santa Clara County market last year enjoyed a 20.8 percent increase in hotel revenue from the previous year, according to figures from Smith Travel Research. The researchers used the most widely accepted metric for the strength of a hotel market, revenue per available room.
"That was the highest increase in the entire California market for 2012," Wang said. South Lake Tahoe's hotel market came in second with a 17.1 percent increase in hotel room revenue.
"This has prompted a great deal of interest in San Jose on the part of developers and hotel chains," Wang said.
The new Aloft hotel for San Jose is scheduled to open in 2014. In January, Aloft opened a hotel in Cupertino.
The target age for the Aloft brand, according to Atlas Hospitality President Alan Reay, is people in their 20s, 30s and 40s. The Aloft in Cupertino will have 123 rooms with high ceilings similar to lofts. It will also have high-speed Internet access.
Aloft also has opened a hotel near San Francisco airport that is a renovated Clarion Hotel.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- You've no doubt seen them on the roads. Tens of thousands of Georgia drivers have a specialty plate in support of their favorite college or university.
The plates cost extra at the tag office and every year when drivers renew them, but you might be surprised to know where that extra money goes ... or more appropriately, where it doesn't go.
You could call Debbie Harrison's car a moving billboard.
"I have a tag in the front, a tag on the back also. That lets everyone know I'm a Bulldog fan," she said.
The tag on the back, however, cost a lot more than the one on the front of Harrison's car. That's because she pays the state of Georgia extra money to have a University of Georgia specialty plate.
Instead of paying $20 for a regular state plate, drivers like Harrison fork over $80. The renewal fee is also higher. It's $55 as opposed to just $20.
Drivers in Georgia have 30 college and university plates to choose from, including Georgia Tech, Georgia Southern, Augusta State and maybe soon Georgia Regents. Right now, the Georgia Department of Revenue says there are more than 88,000 school plates are on the road.
That means millions for the state's general fund.
No, that's not a typo. The millions go to the State Treasurer's Office. Not a dime goes to the college or university.
Across the river, it's a much different story in South Carolina. Drivers who support a college or university with a specialty plate are really supporting their college or university when it comes to money.
According to the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles, specialty plates for colleges and universities are $70 on top of the normal registration fee. That's similar to the costs drivers pay in Georgia, but here's the difference: $40 goes to the sponsoring school's scholarship fund. So, a University of South Carolina plate or a Clemson University plate helps students get a college education.
Meanwhile, plates like Harrison's in Georgia do not.
That was news to her.
"Who checks to see? I think I'm supporting my school, so the money's going there. So I was surprised when you told me it wasn't," she said.
Here's something else that's surprising. Money from the Georgia Tech plate in Georgia goes to the Georgia general fund. Money for the Georgia Tech plate in South Carolina goes to benefit a scholarship fund of South Carolina students who attend Georgia Tech.
That's not all we found. Click here for a plate comparison between the two states.

The city is making one last push for applications that will allow it to submit a Small Cities Development Grant request that could bring considerable funding to small businesses, rental and homeowners looking to make property renovations.
According to Granite Falls Chamber of Commerce Director Nicole and EDA Director Dennis Van Hoof, who have worked in collaboration on the grant proposal, the city needs 28 single family owner-occupied or commercial applications by Thursday, October 25 if it is going to be able to meet the grant application deadline.
"We've received 40 rental rehab and 16 commercial applications, which has far exceeded what we hoped for," said Zempel. "The response for housing applications hasn't been as strong, but if we are able meet our application target and are awarded the grant, it could be a major boost for the city."
Commercial redevelopment forms are available at the Chamber of Commerce office (564-4039), while renter and single family rehab forms can be picked up at the EDA office in the City Hall (564-2255). All are still being accepted. Questionnaires are short and are only meant to gauge community enthusiasm. They do not lock property owners into the program.
"A signature on the form simply states interest," said Zempel. "If awarded the grant, those who have filled out applications will be pushed to the top of the list of those selected to take part in the program."
The city was last awarded small cities development grant funding for owner and renter single family rehabilitation in 2009. That program ended in November 2011 with nine single family homes renovated and eight renter occupied apartments renovated.
If funded, those single family owner-occupied units that meet income requirements and take part in the program would be responsible for 25 percent of the cost of improvements, while 75 percent of project costs (up to $18,750) would be covered in a deferred/forgivable loan in which 1/7 is forgiven each year over a seven year period. Expenses in excess of the aforementioned maximum would be the responsibility of homeowners or businesses.
"This program provides an excellent opportunity for home or business improvements at a lower cost now than at times in the past. If you have received a questionnaire, take the time to fill it out and drop it off at one of the places that are identified in the questionnaire - that is the only way to determine if you are eligible.

She'll be tickled pink when she sees this costume. Sew it together or use fabric glue. The design is simple. And the headband can be made quickly with inexpensive craft supplies. A store-bought shirt and leggings complete the outfit.
Catch the Backyardigans on Nick Jr.
Print the Uniqua Costume Templates and enlarge them to fit your child. Use the enlarged templates to cut out the body pieces from the pale pink felt.
Sew or glue the side seams, shoulder seams, and crotch seam of the body pieces. (If gluing, turn the dress inside-out after done so the seams will be on the inside of the dress.)
Cut out a few big circles from the hot pink felt and glue them to the costume.
Cut a long slit down the center back of the costume. With scissors, snip the ribbon into six 6-inch lengths At equal intervals, attach the ribbons by sewing or with glue to create ties that will close up the back of the costume. Set aside.
If you are making a headband, cut stiff pink felt into a 6-inch x 2-inch strip. Poke one small hole at each end and insert fine elastic; knot in place. The elastic will go under your child�s chin to hold the headband in place. Then, poke two holes in the top and insert the pipecleaners or glittered floral wire to make the antennae. Glue to secure. NOTE: If you are using a storebought headband, simply twist the antennae onto the top of the headband and glue in place. Let dry. Coil the antennae.
With face paint, apply a pale pink undercoat, then add hot pink dots.
Dress your child in the shirt and leggings. Then have her pull on the body suit. Stuff it with fill to make it puffy. Tie up the back closures. And then have her put on the antennae.

General Discussion
Autoimmune blistering diseases are a group of disorders in which the body mistakenly attacks healthy tissue, causing blistering lesions that primarily affect the skin and mucous and membranes. In autoimmune blistering diseases, antibodies mistakenly attack proteins that are essential for the layers of skin to stick (adhere) together. The specific symptoms and severity of blistering diseases vary from one person to another, even among individuals with the same disorder. In some cases, blistering lesions can cover a significant portion of the skin. Although there is no cure for autoimmune blistering diseases, they can often be controlled with treatment. In other cases, autoimmune blistering diseases if left untreated can eventually cause life-threatening complications. In recent years, new insight into the causes and development of these disorders has led to research into new therapies such as the development of drugs that target the specific antibodies which cause the symptoms of these diseases. NORD has individual reports on many of the specific disorders classified as autoimmune blistering diseases.

Come January Josh Schlicher will take the reins as Marietta City Council president. The Republican candidate outdistanced Democratic challenger Kevin Paskawych by 275 votes, according to the final but unofficial results of Tuesday's general election.
"I had a lot of good help in this campaign and we all worked as a team," Schlicher said after learning of his victory.
"We talked directly to a lot of voters. I think the personal contact really helped, I felt pretty confident this time," he said.

Josh Schlicher, right, who won the race for city council president shakes hands with County Commissioners Ron Feathers Tuesday night.
Schlicher, a former councilman at-large, had 1,287 votes while Paskawych, a newcomer to the political realm, took 1,012 votes in the council presidential race.
"I've been told that for anyone on their first time out in a political campaign, especially if they're not well-known, to take 40 percent of the vote is good, but we took more than 44 percent," Paskawych said. "So I feel pretty good about that."
Two years ago Schlicher also made a bid for council president against current Democratic president Walt Brothers, who said Tuesday he believes his former opponent will do well.
Fact Box
At a glance
Council President:
Republican Josh Schlicher-1,287
Democrat Kevin Paskawych-1,012
Second Ward Council:
Democrat Mike McCauley-338
Republican James "Chip" Wilson-229
Council at-large:
Independent Michael Mullen-1,311
Democrat Harley Noland-1,277
Democrat Kathy Downer-1,146
Republican Jon Grimm-1,093
Republican Michael Boersma-916
"I think Josh will do a good job," Brothers said following the election. "And I'll be working with him to help make a smooth transition."
Democrat Councilman Mike McCauley held onto his second ward post, garnering 109 votes over Republican opponent James "Chip" Wilson. McCauley, who has previously served a total of 12 years on council, took 338 votes while Wilson received 229.
McCauley admitted he had some doubts about how the race might turn out.
"There are only two ways to run-unopposed or scared," he said. "But we knocked on a lot of doors and talked to a lot of people."
He thanked the second ward voters for bringing him back for another term on council.
Wilson said his first venture into politics was a positive experience.
"I feel good about what we did, and don't know what we could have done differently," he said. "I still would have liked to present some of my ideas on council. But Mike has a lot of name recognition in the city, and I don't doubt he'll do a good job."
In the council at-large race, Democrat Kathy Downer, a first-time candidate, will join incumbents Harley Noland, also a Democrat, and Independent Michael Mullen at the council table.
Republican challengers Jon Grimm and Michael Boersma lost their bids for at-large seats.
Downer took 1,146 votes, Noland 1,277, and Mullen 1,311.
Grimm had 1,093, and Boersma 916 votes.
"I have a lot of people to thank," Downer said. "We had a lot of help from the Democrats and a lot of volunteers. I really enjoyed this campaign and am excited to be serving on council."
Grimm said the Republican team worked hard and he enjoyed working with his fellow GOP candidates.
"But I'll stay involved in local politics in some way, but can't say right now that I'll be a candidate again," he said.

Google documents how to make your e-commerce site AMP-ready.
From www
The reality in SEO is that there are many who are still overly concerned with keyword rankings, clinging on to them as a key performance indicator. Thi
In late 2015, JR Oakes and his colleagues undertook an experiment to attempt to predict Google ranking for a given webpage using machine learning. What follows are their findings, which they wanted to share with the SEO community.
While many view technical SEO as a simple matter of implementing best practices on a website, columnist Patrick Stox argues that the best practitioners are doing cutting-edge work that will shape the industry's future.
I am now seeing reports around the web that Google AMP, the web page speed initiative backed by Google, is now live in the Google mobile search results. It was expected to go live any time now but AdAge reported that it would be tomorrow. I guess it is going live today...
Want to drive sustainable organic search traffic and increase visibility in search engines? Here are five ways to optimize your content for SEO.
Google is testing the new AMP related news carousel with AMP labels in the search results.
The next Penguin update is coming soon, according to a Google spokesperson. Columnist Erin Everhart outlines what you can do to prepare.
"The first thing that probably pops into your head when it comes to SEO is the keywords. And, with that, many people go overboard..."
Read the rest here: http://www.thesempost.com/seo-just-keywords/
If that seems a little incomplete and confused, check out this more thought provoking article on the same topic which was written a few years ago: http://kercommunications.com/seo/wasting-time-worrying-about-keywords/
Back in June, Google told us the Penguin update is months away at best. We also know Google is working on a real time update to the algorithm, so it runs immediately and would not require manual push
Should local search marketers be worried about Google's new local display format in SERPs? Columnist Andrew Shotland takes a look at the impact from multiple angles.
Every SEO has their area of expertise, but there are a few things that every SEO has to know.
Nick's insight:
I like that this article starts with "SEO is About User Experience". I have been saying that for over two years and it is nice to see the rest of the SEO community catching up. http://kercommunications.com/seo/user-experience-seo/
Unfortunately, the rest of the list is full of tired old things that really may not be as important as they used to be. Primary and secondary keywords with brand name at the end to make the "best" title? Really?! I think this may be a case of a writer who hasn't actually done the work lately and is repeating the same old things.
Immigration Overseas India's comment, August 19, 2015 6:29 AM
Yaa.. I like this thanks for show....this things
Google's own official statements and algorithm updates are the reason(s) why this is just not true... "Webmasters who spend their energies upholding the spirit of the basic principles will provide a much better user experience and subsequently enjoy better ranking than those who spend their time looking for loopholes they can exploit."
"SEO Crisis Management: Before you sound the alarms and accidentally destroy your website's rankings in the search results, start with basic troubleshooting…
Google replaced the "Search Queries" report with "Search Analytics", and this article offers expert advice on how to harness to the data to optimize your site.
How can you tell which SEO advice is worthwhile and which is nonsense? Question everything! There is one important question you should always ask…
Get the answer:
In Organic Search with SEO or Paid with Adwords, getting the traffic you want from Google and keeping it profitable is far from simple...
Although many of us have been stubbornly linking out to authority sites for years now, previously there has been no actual evidence of the positive effect this may have on your site. It has always been one of those unproven 'tactics' that felt natural to more progressive SEOs.
There's something huge eating up the Google search results…
From moz
Machine learning is becoming more and more prevalent in the SEO industry, driving algorithms on many major platforms.
"A lot of link building strategies can backfire, causing more damage than doing good. If you want to improve your ranking in the long term, using what we call a holistic SEO strategy, you should definitely avoid certain link building tactics..."
With this check list of 15 simple things, your site will rank at the top of the search results… No, it won't. It won't if you do 50 simple things, either…

Recipe Management at its Best!
YummySoup! 2 has been rewritten from the ground up to make your favorite recipe management app even more powerful than ever! Now including Recipecasts, premium themes for viewing/printing/emailing including 4×6 index and photo paper, and an all-new weekly planner. Your recipes will thank you!
Required OS: not specified

I tried quite a few different recipe apps, and this one is my favorite. The import feature is great, and I love the template system.
I love this recipe app. With the great feature the web importer you can add recipes directly from website to YummySoup. Nice.
bitnix: YummySoup! works with both standard and metric units. If you ever find a measurement that it doesn't recognize let me know. You can also add that measurement to the autofill values in the preferences.
Does anyone know if it supports international measures or if you can customize that?
Version 2.0 is great, and the support team is much better than the competition. I switched to this from SousChef and believe I've found the definite app to organize my recipes.
Version two blows version one out of the water. If you've tried version one and thought it was lacking... give it another whirl. I used version one, and it was good. Version 2... I love.
I LOVE this app!! It makes my life in the kitchen so much easier. Its really tough to juggle the kids with all of the other things on my list... in about 5 minutes I can pick a dozen recipes and import them into my YummySoup, plus make a grocery list for any ingredients I need. And cooking is quicker with the full screen display!! Thank you YummySoup for making my life so much easier!
YummySoup is a really nice, no frills app for managing (not just keeping) your recipes. I have tried several other recipe managers, most recently MacGourmet, and YummySoup is the most "Mac like" I have found Although YummySoup doesn't have all the frills of the others, it shines in it's simplicity and ease of use.
The web importer is hands down the best available...for most of the common recipes sites (allrecipes, foodtv, etc.) it auto populates all fields by merely using drag and drop to the main window. If YummySoup can't auto populate fields, it presents an easy to use interface for highlighting, selecting, and then importing the various fields into the library. Top it off that in can import from other recipe managers (saving time if you convert from another supported application) and has .Mac support, it really adds up to a great product.
Finally, the $20 license is a "family license" which allows you to install it on all Macs in your home. This is a welcome move by the developer which I wish was a model more software companies embraced.
Just FYI, I'm fairly certain The Little App Factory is out of business and no longer developing Connoisseur. Someone is still collecting registration fees but they don't answer support emails anymore. I recommended Connoisseur to my mom and she bought it about a year or so ago. When we upgraded her to Leopard, it broke Connoisseur. I tried getting support from TLAF but no one answered my/our emails. I went so far as to track down one of the devlelopers, who was spending a year in Pakistan, and he gave me another email to try. Many, many unaswered emails later, we gave up and since I'd been using YS for quite some time (I think I got it on MacZot for $10 or something) we migrated her to it.
Since switching to YS neither her nor I have had any regrets. I much prefer the drag and drop of YS and the Anysite importer is simply great. I got tired of the whole Services menu import of Connoisseur.
YummySoup can handle recipes very well, with drag n' drop features as well is pictures, I love it! BUT I still find it a little bit of a pain. It's very close to a copy of this: http://thelittleappfactory.com/application.php?app=Connoisseur
I think YummySoup has bad graphics and a bad name (it's not just for soup). I still prefer Connoisseur (which is also $20).

Our work on Highway 212 is not yet complete. This major corridor remains an important farm-to-market route and a prime connection to and from Greater Minnesota – all across Minnesota to the border with South Dakota. Residents of Carver County have benefitted from the re- routing and construction of the new Highway 212 corridor out to the City of Carver. As anticipated, the expansion of this critical corridor has not only improved the safety and timeliness of commutes, it has led to job creation and economic growth in Carver County and along the entire Highway 212 corridor - extending beyond the Metropolitan region.
Currently, in Carver County we are seeing new data centers locate in our county, providing well-paying jobs that add real value to our community. The latest development from Stream Data Centers will be located northwest of the Highway 212 and Engler Boulevard interchange in Chaska, joining the UnitedHealth Group facility that was completed in 2012.
Unfortunately, the state does not have enough highway funding to complete Highway 212 anytime in the next 20 years. We appreciate the support of local legislators who have introduced bills to direct some additional funding to Highway 212, but without new revenue to pay for trunk highway bonds, progress on this major commerce corridor will stop.
Safety should always be our top priority in Minnesota but we are failing that standard with this outdated, dangerous two-lane highway with more traffic than ever designed for the traveling public. This is a road with extensive freight truck traffic. The commercial haulers and traveling public deserve better. Highway 212 between Interstate 494 and Glencoe is the only high priority interregional corridor in Minnesota that still has segments that are just two lanes wide. It's time for that to change. It's time to build on the safety and capacity improvements we have already invested in as taxpayers and to get those two-lane segments of Highway 212 on either side of Cologne widened to four lanes. Those two-lane segments on this corridor hurt the function of the entire highway.
Fortunately not all is bleak for US Highway 212, thanks to strong support from members of our Congressional delegation including Senator Amy Klobuchar, Rep. Erik Paulsen, and Rep Colin Peterson. Senator Klobuchar's work, as part of the Transportation Appropriations bill, designated funding for further improvements to Highway 212. Representatives Paulsen and Peterson have been long-time champions for Highway 212 and we look forward to working with them to build on our hard-fought previous improvements.
Carver County looks forward to our continued partnership with Greater Minnesota and MnDOT. A true partnership that will ensure a safer future for everyone who drives on or whose livelihood depends on this vitally important highway. All of us need to remember that any funding for the expansion of U. S. Highway 212 not only serves the southwestern metropolitan area but also Greater Minnesota - all the way to South Dakota.

The word slow is normally used as an adjective ( a slow learner; the journey was slow). It is also used as an adverb in certain specific contexts, including compounds such as slow-acting and slow-moving and in the expression go slow. Other adverbial use is informal and usually regarded as nonstandard, as in he drives too slow and go as slow as you can. In such contexts, standard English uses slowly instead. The use of slow and slowly in this respect contrasts with the use of fast, which is completely standard in use as both an adjective and an adverb; there is no word 'fastly'.

Paltrow named People's Most Beautiful Woman
Published: Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 8:46 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 8:46 a.m.
NEW YORK (AP) — People magazine has named Gwyneth Paltrow as the World's Most Beautiful Woman for 2013.
The 40-year-old actress tops the magazine's annual list of the "World's Most Beautiful," announced Wednesday.
Commenting on her selection, Paltrow says: "Around the house, I'm in jeans and a T-shirt. I don't really wear makeup."
She credits her workout routine for keeping her looking young and feeling strong.
Paltrow is married to Coldplay rocker Chris Martin. They have two children, Apple, 8, and Moses, 7.

This is the concern of St Ignatius district councilman Ron Therriault as expressed in his statement presented to Council at the July 13 meeting in Pablo.
