Very nice for fixing lyrics and backfilling year and genre. You may want to use CoverScout for better Cover quality, but this one has it all in one tool.
The price is for a year's subscription, but how often do you need to touch you entire collection?
Definitely worth the money - huge time saver
Unbelievable value at $10 a year! I've been looking ALL OVER (as have many others) for an integrated solution of tags and art for itunes. This is the answer. I fixed about 5 songs and purchased.
There were some songs that Pollux couldn't handle, but each time I ran it, it would get a couple more songs. So I suggest you run it once, then run it again on the ones that don't got through the first time, repeat. I have to guess this is because it takes a sample from a different piece of the song each time a song is examined.
It's back online, and $10, but well worth it if you ask me.
Yeah , works pretty well, use Pollux then get anything it missed with TuneUp (first 100 songs free then $20).
from polluxapp.com:
"Over the last couple of days, Pollux has gotten an unanticipated high volume of traffic and downloads. Weâre very happy for the huge interest and success our app has received, but for the very same reason, the third-party services Pollux uses such as MusicDNS and Lyricwiki are no longer able to support Pollux for free. Thus, our current version (1.1.9) is broken.
"As we are just two college students not looking for any profit, we are unable to pay for the services Pollux depends on even with the very generous donations we have received. Weâre looking to resolve this issue and continue to bring you Pollux at the lowest cost we can manage. We apologize for Pollux not working until we can sort out this matter, and we thank you for your interest and patience.
Chetan and Shashwat"
I keep getting a connection error. Thoughts?
This app has fixed so much for me that I was too lazy to fix manually. It's very good at what it does.

4.5-4 Intimidating a Witness -- § 53a-151a
Revised to April 23, 2010
The defendant is charged [in count ___] with intimidating a witness. The statute defining this offense reads in pertinent part as follows:
a person is guilty of intimidating a witness when, believing that an official proceeding is pending or about to be instituted, such person (uses / attempts to use / threatens the use of) physical force against (a witness / another person) with intent to <insert appropriate subsection:>
§ 53a-151a (a) (1): (influence / delay / prevent) the testimony of a witness in the official proceeding.
§ 53a-151a (a) (2): induce the witness to (testify falsely / withhold testimony / elude legal process summoning the witness to testify / absent (himself / herself) from the official proceeding).
For you to find the defendant guilty of this charge, the state must prove the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Element 1 - Official proceeding
The first element is that the defendant believed that there was an official proceeding pending or about to be instituted. An "official proceeding" is any proceeding held or which may be held before any legislature, judicial, administrative, or other agency or official authorized to take evidence under oath, including any referee, hearing examiner, commissioner, or notary, or other person taking evidence in connection with any proceeding.
Element 2 - Physical force
The second element is that the defendant (used / attempted to use / threatened the use of) physical force against (a witness / another person). <Insert appropriate definition:>
"Witness" is any person summoned, or who may be summoned to give testimony in an official proceeding.
"Person" is defined as a human being and where appropriate, a public or private corporation, a limited liability company, or unincorporated association, a partnership, a government or governmental instrumentality.
<Instruct as appropriate according to the type of force alleged:>
Use of force
"Use of force" means use of a dangerous instrument, or use of actual physical force, or violence, or superior physical strength against the witness or another person. ["Dangerous instrument" means any instrument, article or substance which, under the circumstances in which it is used or attempted or threatened to be used, is capable of causing death or serious physical injury. "Serious physical injury" means physical injury which creates a substantial risk of death, or which causes serious disfigurement, serious impairment of health or serious loss or impairment of the function of any bodily organ. It is important to note that the article need not be inherently dangerous; all that is required is that the article was capable of causing death or serious physical injury under the circumstances in which it was used. Any article or substance, without limitation and even though harmless under normal use, may be found by you to be a dangerous instrument if, under the circumstances of its use or threatened or attempted use, it is capable of producing serious physical injury or death. The state need not prove that in fact death or serious physical injury resulted, only that the instrument had that potential under the circumstances.] It is not necessary for the state to prove that the defendant was armed with or used any weapon for you to find that the defendant used force.
Threatened use of force
You may find a threat of use of force because you find that a threat was actually expressed, or you may find a threat implied from the circumstances and from what you find to have been the defendant's conduct. Any such threat must have been such that it reasonably caused the person to fear physical injury to (herself/himself). "Physical injury" means impairment of physical condition or pain. Whether the fear of physical injury was reasonable is a question of fact for you to determine from the circumstance that you find existed at the time. [For example, any injury inflicted, relative sizes, place of occurrence, etc.]
Element 3 - Intent
The third element is that the use, attempt to use or threat to use physical force was with the intent to <insert as appropriate:>
(influence / delay / prevent) the testimony of a witness in the official proceeding.
induce the witness to (testify falsely / withhold testimony / elude legal process summoning the witness to testify / absent (himself / herself) from the official proceeding). <The term "legal process summoning the witness to testify" should to be tailored to the specific facts of the case.>
A person acts "intentionally" with respect to a result when (his/her) conscious objective is to cause such result. <See Intent: Specific, Instruction 2.3-1.>
"Influence," "delay," and "prevent" have their ordinary meanings. "Induce" means to move to action by persuasion or by influence.
In summary, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that 1) the defendant believed that an official proceeding was pending or about to be initiated, 2) the defendant (used / attempted to use / threatened to use) physical force against (a witness / another person), and 3) by such conduct the defendant intended to <insert specific allegations against defendant>.
If you unanimously find that the state
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements of the crime of
intimidating a witness, then you shall find the defendant guilty. On the other
hand, if you unanimously find that the state has failed to prove beyond a
reasonable doubt any of the elements, you shall then find the defendant not

Spare 120 rd ECHO 1 M14/SOC16 Series Mid Cap Magazine - Quantity:
Registered User Login:
- Perfect if you want to get away from the hicapsI saw these magazines and decided it was time to pick up a new alternative to the hicaps that plagued my existence for so long, so here is my take on the things.
They look and feel good. The metal stood up to drop tests and I found no problems after putting them in and using them again. I've only ever put ~90 rounds into one, so I couldn't tell you whether or not they actually hold 100 rounds. But the beauty of it is that you use all the rounds in the magazine. Plus you can use the trick of mixing a white bb every few black ones as a "tracer" to make sure you're shooting where you want to shoot or even shooting at all. And another trick is to put 3-5 bb's of a noticeably different color into the bottom of the magazine so you know when you're out of ammunition.
All in all, these are an awesome alternative to hicaps if you hate the rattling and the winding and the misfeeding (I don't think I mentioned that these magazines fed better for me.) Plus they're cheaper than OEM Marui 70 rd magazines and hold more rounds. I'd recommend picking up at least a couple. They're worth the price.
Rate it if it helped.
- Great magazine.Great magazine, doesn't rattle like High Cap magazines. I've dropped mine a couple of times on concrete in the heat of battle, have a scratch in the paint on one of them. Unfortunately there are only 100 bbs in these magazines so if you're the kind of person that gets squirrelly and can't control their trigger finger while they've got the gun set to rock-n-roll you need a bunch of them or someone to be loading for you. Overall great magazines. I'm glad I spent my hard earned money.

Variable speed control provides optimum setting for leafy vegetables and soft fruit through to harder, denser produce. Micro-mesh filtration ensures minimal heat transfer and high quality extraction. Wide feeding tubes enable whole fruits to be fed directly into the juicer. Easy detachment of nozzles and simple assembly facilitates the cleaning process. Citrus squeezers and presses enable the rapid creation of healthy drinks without the need for peeling the rind. Also available are a wide range of accessories including eco-friendly composting bags, cleaning brushes, pipe brushes, spare caps, containers and strainers.

New Website & Lake Campus Joins New Conference
The Lake Campus is now a member of the United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA). Also, the Lakers now have a new website.
Please visit the athleticsweb page for more detailed information.
The Lake Campus participates in the United States Collegiate Athletic Association.
The United States Collegiate Athletic Association is a national organization that exists to provide quality athletic competition on a regional and national level. The USCAA focuses specifically on smaller institutions of higher learning and their student-athletes. The primary goal of the USCAA is to provide members with an association that is devoted to the growth, vision, and values of their institutions. The USCAA's focus is to enhance member institutions through athletics, by conducting national championships, naming All-Americans, recognizing scholar athletes, and promoting USCAA member schools.
Athletic Program Guidelines and Philosophy
The primary aim of the Wright State University-Lake Campus program of intercollegiate athletics is to promote and provide a variety of opportunities for men and women to participate in advanced levels of competition with students from other colleges and universities in Ohio and Indiana. We believe that this organized competition should provide a source of institutional pride and spirit for the total university community.
In order for a student athlete to be eligible to participate in athletics at WSU-Lake Campus, he or she must meet the following requirements:
- The student athlete must be enrolled and taking a minimum of 12 credit hours each semester and be in good academic standing during the year.
- The student athlete must be enrolled in a minimum of 12 credit hours in order to participate in the officially scheduled athletic programs.
- If a student athlete remains on academic probation for two academic semesters he/she will be ineligible to participate in the athletic programs at WSU-Lake Campus.
- In order to be eligible to participate during the second year the student athlete must have completed a minimum of 24 credit hours toward his/her degree.
- A student athlete needs to be aware that the University requires a minimum GPA of a 2.00 on a 4.0 scale as one of its requirements for graduation.
Athletes are required to carry primary insurance to cover any medical cost associated with an injury that may occur while participating in club sports at the Lake Campus. Examination by a Physician is highly recommended before participation.
Code of Conduct
It is understood that participating in the WSU-Lake Campus athletic program is to be considered a privilege, not a right. Because student athletes represent WSU-Lake Campus, members shall conduct themselves individually and as groups as to reflect only credit on the Lake Campus of Wright State University.
Revised July 2012.
The Wright State Lake Campus held their first ever Senior Day this year. The lone senior, and only 4 year player in school history, Kyle Markle was recognized for his significant contributions to the program. Kyle has been a permanent fixture in Right Field since the inception of the program 4 years ago. He's hit in the 4 hole consistently most of his time here and leads the team in almost every career offensive category. Kyle is a team captain and throughout his career has played in 112 games with 125 hits in 333 at bats resulting in an impressive career batting average of .375! Kyle is a graduate of Celina Senior High School and will graduate from Wright State University with a Marketing Degree! Coach Howell's comments about Kyle..."Kyle has been my rock, he's strong, dependable and I can always count on him. As much as I'm going to miss him, I'm so proud of him for accomplishing his goals. I wouldn't trade the time we've spent together for anything. It was a true blessing watching him grow into the man he is today. Thank you for your dedication and commitment to this program over the past 4 years."

Bowl : The Dance of the Cupids
The history of Renaissance glass began in Venice. The invention of a very pure, colourless material (cristallo), heated then blown free-hand or in moulds is the characteristic feature of this luxury product prized by the European elite.
Venetian glass reached the peak of perfection in the 16th century with shapes of unprecedented delicacy and elegance, making each object a genuine masterpiece.
This large cristallo glass bowl features charming cold-painted decoration applied to the reverse. The subject matter, which can be admired through the thickness of the perfectly clear glass, is inspired by an engraving by Marcantonio Raimondi after Raphaël: two winged cupids are leading a children's dance against the backdrop of a landscape. The delicate gilded foliated patterns decorating the rim of the work enhance the quality and richness of the decoration.
Designed as a luxurious display piece, this bowl with its painted decor is exceptionally well preserved and has certainly never seen practical use.

Nursing Homes are an important part of healthcare in the United States. More than 3 million elderly and disabled Americans receive care in the more than 17,000 nursing homes in the U.S. As a consumer of this type of care it is important that you research information on nursing homes and investigate the facilities that you are considering for a loved one or yourself. Family members should act as advocates for the patients care and learn as much as possible about the nursing home that you select for a loved one.
Nursing homes are different than hospitals and the quality of care one may receive can vary tremendously. UCompareHealthCare provides information on the deficiencies that nursing homes have received and levels of staffing and services offered. Our reports include quality measures that will help you develop a picture of the quality of care in the facility. All of this information is provided free of charge!
In your investigation of nursing homes it is important to remember that no one source of information is a definitive measure of the quality of care that one might expect to receive. Instead you should use all of the resources available to make the right choice. You should consider topics such as the certification of the nursing home, the level of the staff and most importantly the number and hours that RN's (registered nurse) and CNA's (certified nursing assistant) spend with patients. Take a tour of the facility and talk with the staff. See if the residents are well kept and that patient rooms are clean and have the appropriate equipment such as adjustable beds, chairs for visitors and a means for the patient to alert the staff if they are having difficulties. Make sure the environment is bright and cheerful and that the staff has a good relationship with the residents. You might consider if the nursing home has an outdoor area for patients to get fresh air and if the staff will assist patients with their efforts to go outside.
Residents in nursing homes tend to spend a great deal of time in their rooms and periods of inactivity can sometime cause complications. If residents are bed ridden you should consider the care that the patient will receive to minimize conditions such as bed sores. Each nursing home should have a safety plan that includes procedures for emergency evacuation.
You can get a very good idea of the quality of the nursing home by simply walking through stairways and hallways. These areas should be clean and void of unpleasant smells. Nursing home residents should be properly dressed and their garments clean. Being an informed patient or advocate can help avoid situations of abuse in nursing homes. Smoking should be restricted to areas that do not affect other patients and in most nursing homes smoking is not permitted.
One of the most important things that family members must remember is that nursing homes tend to treat and care for patients with a variety of conditions. Make sure that the nursing home you choose is right for your loved one. Visit the patient often and continue to be vigilant about quality care.
UCompareHealthCare wants you to become the best advocate for quality care and our free nursing home reports set the stage for more thorough research and involvement on the part of the family.

About Reckless Kelly
Led by brothers Willy (vocals/guitar) and Cody Braun (vocals/fiddle/mandolin/harmonica), alternative country-rock outfit Reckless Kelly formed in Bend, OR, before relocating to Austin, TX, in January 1997. The Brauns had previously toured with their father in Muzzie Braun & the Boys, a Western swing band, and were joined in their own group by lead guitarist Casey Pollock, bassist Chris Schelske, and drummer Jay Nazz. Reckless Kelly's debut album, Millican, appeared in 1998; Acoustic: Live at Stubb's and Day both followed two years later, after which David Abeyta replaced Pollock on lead guitar. Under the Table and Above the Sun from 2003 began the band's relationship with the high-profile Sugar Hill label and won the hearts of the music press and honky tonkin' legend Joe Ely, who sang the band's praises in interviews. Wicked Twisted Road was released in 2005, and the next year the live album Reckless Kelly Was Here, which featured songs from all of their previous studio records, as well as three covers, and truly captured the band's stage presence, came out. Bulletproof appeared from Yep Roc in 2008. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi

Convertible, Los Angeles
Photograph by Catherine Karnow
Catherine Karnow is a San Francisco-based photographer whose work has appeared in National Geographic, National Geographic Traveler, and other publications. She has been teaching photography workshops since 1995.
The wonderful thing about photography is that you can always pick up your camera and shoot in your own neighborhood. When I was at a crossroads in my career, considering being a filmmaker, I chose photography because I didn't need a team of people to go and shoot—I could take my camera and go out on a weekend and shoot locally.
Think about creating a portrait of your neighborhood by shooting a variety of subjects that altogether make a cohesive gallery of images. You want your collection to have both visual and subject matter variety. Be sure to shoot nature, architecture, food, people, and cultural activities. Vary shots aesthetically as well: wide shots for landscapes, medium shots for street scenes. And don't forget people and details. Finally, shoot at different times of day to have a mixture of light: early morning, midday, and dusk.
Go for a Ride
I often find myself shooting in convertibles to show the simple fun of a car ride. Ask a friend with a convertible to drive, and get some willing subjects to ride with you. Sit in the back and shoot the road ahead, or sit in the front and turn around to shoot passengers having fun in the back. It's a great way to show the scenery of your area. —Catherine Karnow

Visit Main Street
What does your town look like? Try showing it from a vantage point that captures the activity and architecture of its center without being too far away to get a sense of place. In Flagstaff, Arizona, I was able to get permission to shoot from the roof of a building across from a historic hotel.
When I'm in a town, I look for views that are only a few stories high, that are in the center of town, and that look down on a plaza or main street. Then I wait for something interesting to happen, like a great car going by or a bunch of bicyclists. Capturing a good moment is always important. —Catherine Karnow

Capture Your Natural Surroundings
What is the terrain like where you live? Are there cornfields, beaches, lakesides, mountains? Show the geography of your area by going to a nearby scenic spot. And don't forget to put people in your pictures to show how the natural beauty is enjoyed by locals. Don't hesitate to ask a friend or family member to pose for you. For this image, I asked a friend to bring her guitar and play music in the open air outside Flagstaff, Arizona. —Catherine Karnow
Granola and Fruit, Montreal
Photograph by Catherine Karnow
Photograph Local Food
I always shoot a beautiful presentation of food I'm served before I start eating. Food is an important ingredient when it comes to place and makes a great subject for detail shots. Choose a restaurant or cafe with good natural light and well-presented food. In Montreal, I shot the breakfast I had ordered at a popular spot famous for its homemade granola. Try to shoot food that's both photogenic and a local specialty. I never use a flash when shooting food. Instead I always place the dish as near as possible to a window, preferably backlit. —Catherine Karnow
Soccer Practice, Connecticut

Go to a Game
Sports are a big part of all cultures, so attend your kid's soccer game or a local tournament. Since I'm a terrible sports photographer, don't own a long telephoto lens, and am much more interested in what's happening on the sidelines, I tend to shoot everything but the game itself. I like to be close to all the other activities happening around me, such as the kids getting ready to play, parents and pets, or vendors selling drinks and snacks. Using a wide-angle lens allows me to stay close and actually interact with people. In Greenwich, Connecticut, even ordinary interactions between moms and kids captured my interest. —Catherine Karnow

Document Your Social Life
What better way to show how people socialize in your world than by documenting a barbecue or weekend get-together? Friends are easy subjects and will love getting some images sent to them afterward. On assignment in Napa, I shot an al fresco dinner in an environment that was so familiar to me that it might as well have been a family gathering. Shoot the food being prepared, people having fun, the kids running around. What seems utterly ordinary to you is in fact a slice of the cultural life of your world. —Catherine Karnow

Visit the Farmers Market
A trip to the farmers market is a classic weekend activity and a great opportunity to capture scenes from your neighborhood: people enjoying the food, vendors displaying their produce, fruits and vegetables enticingly arranged. I always ask permission before I shoot, compliment the farmer on their produce, and stay out of the way of a transaction. I also never leave the stand without buying something. This is because I tend to choose just a couple of stands rather than skip around. I love stands with beautifully displayed items and whimsical-looking signs indicating what the produce is—signs that have character and are handmade. In Santa Monica, I couldn't resist shooting colorful squash blossoms nestled among purple artichokes. —Catherine Karnow

Go to a Gallery
Along with architecture, sports, and food, art is an important part of any culture. Many towns have a monthly day of open galleries, an evening art walk, or a street arts festival. I shoot art that I like and often gravitate toward bold pieces with color, as they tend to photograph well. I always ask permission of the gallery owner or whoever is in charge—sometimes artists and galleries let you shoot the art as part of a scene but not close-up. I always explain the reason why I'm shooting, and I find that people are generally accommodating, whether I'm on assignment or doing a personal project, especially when I promise to send photos. Getting permission to shoot always allows you the freedom and time to shoot while free of anxiety. I'm thankful that digital photography has made it a lot easier to email pictures, and even though it takes up a lot of my time, I believe it's important to share. Plus, sending a simple snapshot can make people so happy. —Catherine Karnow

Include Interesting Neon Signs
Shooting great-looking neon signs at dusk is a way to show an architectural detail and give a sense of place, especially if the sign is in the local language. The sign can be the most prominent part of the image, but be sure to show context as well. —Catherine Karnow
Neighborhood Diner, Montreal

Hang With the Locals
I've always loved diners because you meet all sorts of local characters, some of whom may have been coming to sit in the same spot for lunch for the last 20 years. In diners people are comfortable with each other, and the jovial camaraderie between cooks, servers, and customers is all out in the open. In Montreal, I discovered a neighborhood spot where hipsters, businessmen, and workers all sat side by side. I always sit down, eat, and hang with the regulars; I shoot when I see a good shot. I've found that a camera, rather than being a threat to people, is often a conversation starter, an icebreaker. People want to know why you're shooting, and they relax when you tell them you're having fun or doing your own project. Photo enthusiasts like to talk about what kind of camera you're using and the latest types of photo gear. —Catherine Karnow

Americans like living on the flying bridge, so the Mainship designers created one atop the 414T that rivals the cabin for comfort. There's not only lots of seating, but also a "summer galley" that we think most cooks will prefer to the one belowdecks. We like the covered side- and aft decks, and her jaunty profile with a broken sheerline, too.
A Trawler By Any Other Name
When we tested this boat a while back, she was called the Expedition Trawler, maybe a more evocative name than 414 Trawler. But Mainship has renamed all its models to reflect their overall length, and since this boat is 41' 4", she became the 414T. Otherwise she's the same boat as the earlier Expedition: A single-screw diesel cruiser with comfortable accommodations for four that will take you 252 n.m. (467 km.) on a 300-gal. (1,136 L) fuel capacity (with a 10% reserve) at a respectable cruising speed of 15.9 kt. (29.5 kph). Top speed in our test: 16.7 kt. (30.9 kph) with standard power, a 380-hp Yanmar 6LY3-UTP.
This is a no-nonsense helm, with a single swivel seat on the centerline and room for two nav units flanking the wheel. Co-pilots can sit on either side, with clear sightlines forward but without infringing on the helmsman's space. In total, there's seating for eight on the flying bridge.
In our book, 290 miles doesn't make for much of an expedition – but did you ever hear of an expedition taking place at almost 16 knots? No, neither have we. You can have long range, though: Slow the 414T to traditional trawler speed, say 7 knots, and you should be able to coax over 800 n.m. out of the same amount of fuel. That's enough leg to take you quite a ways off the beaten path – maybe through the remote islands of the Caribbean or to the far corners of the Med -- or let you cruise on the beaten path without having to stop for fuel every day. Fuel consumption increases quickly beyond 7.5 knots, so if you want maximum range, go easy on the throttle.
At 8.5 mph or 7.3 knots, the boat has a range of 713 statute miles or 620 nautical miles, according to our tests. That means that you can get from Florida to New England at these speeds in the ICW on two loads of fuel. How's that for economy?
The lower helm has lots of space for flush-mounting electronics, with easy access to the starboard side deck via a sliding door. But why two joysticks? Mainship installs both bow and stern thrusters as standard equipment in all single-screw 414Ts. (Twin 220-hp diesels are optional, adds $31,250.)
Maybe Mainship's name change was smart, after all: The 414T can be a leisurely, long-range traditional trawler, but also a fast cruiser in waters where harbors, and fuel docks, are plentiful. We suspect most people will prefer the latter. This boat is not really up to a real "expedition" to someplace like, say, Tahiti. There are other boats for that kind of work and they are both heavier, larger and far more expensive.
Comfort for Four in Two
Belowdecks, the 414T holds no surprises: The layout is what we've come to expect in a yacht of this size and type, i.e., with traditional midships engines. There's a master stateroom forward, with the typical centerline peninsula berth, a twin-bunk cabin to port, head compartment to starboard. The galley is in the salon, taking space from there but adding it in the accommodations. What else can you do when you want to fit in two cabins? We don't know – this arrangement works fine for us.
The twin berths in the guest cabin are tucked under the galley, but your legs won't mind. There's standing headroom near the cabin door for dressing/undressing, and a hanging locker. The salon looks spacious in this plan, even with the L-shaped galley here.
Mainship builds the 414T's joinery in cherry, a light-colored wood that, in concert with a white overhead, makes the most of the large cabin windows to keep the salon bright. Air conditioning is optional ($14,000), as is a central vacuum system ($950). Folks serious about cruising out of season or to the Great White North can have diesel cabin heating (ask your Mainship dealer for the price).
The salon benefits from large cabin windows port and starboard and light-colored cherry joinery and upholstery, too. We like the pair of plush-looking swivel chairs. Everyday engine access is through a centerline hatch in the sole; adjacent panels are removable for major repairs or maintenance.
Looking aft in the salon. Cockpit access is via centerline double doors; there's room outside for a couple of deck chairs. The table and settee convert to a double berth. There's a 26" flat-panel TV, tied into the stereo system with its DVD player, and stowage in overhead lockers port and starboard.
Galley Up, Staterooms Down
Placing the galley in the salon opens up space belowdecks for sleeping; otherwise it would be extremely cramped down there with two cabins. But the salon is big enough to absorb the L-shaped galley, opposite the lower helm station, without crimping the crew's style. And the cook will prefer it, too: No carrying plates up and down steps, no banishment belowdecks when everyone else is having fun in the salon.
The standard galley has drawer-style fridge and freezer, both dual voltage, a three-burner electric stove/oven and a microwave oven mounted high up where it's useful. We don't like under-counter microwaves – who wants to bend over that far? -- but some builders put them there. A propane stove is optional; since the Kohler 9-kW genset adds $16,000 to the price, we'd consider the $3,180 gas-stove option, especially if we planned long-range cruising off the grid.
The master berth has a queen-sized innerspring mattress and two hanging lockers, but we'd like shelves near the head of the berth to put our book and glasses at night. Individual high-intensity reading lights are nice, though. There are drawers under the berth for added stowage.
For family cruising, the guest stateroom can hold a couple of kids; for expeditions, a team of wreck-exploring divers, naturalists or even ex-Navy SEALS, if you're really going into the wild. The rod under the lockers looks of minimal use to us, other than to throw clothes over to keep them off the cabin sole – maybe that's the idea. There is a separate hanging locker. A filler cushion is optional ($515).
Prices and Our Opinion
Base price of the Mainship 414 Trawler is $393,207 with a single 380-hp Yanmar 6LY3-UTP diesel spinning a conventional shaft and prop. Folks worried about handing a single-screw boat will have both bow and stern thrusters to help out – both are standard. Or opt for twin 220-hp Yanmar 6BY2-220 diesels ($31,250); you'll lose the stern thruster. We'd stick with the single.
Mainship offers an optional Summer Galley ($5,514) on the flying bridge – with a propane grill, icemaker and sink. It should serve most cooking needs in fine weather.
A Bimini top and full enclosure are optional ($4,257 and $6,386 respectively) -- get them as you'll want protection on the flying bridge, from the sun at least. A windlass adds $3,714; a 35-lb plow anchor and chain/rope rode are standard. Mainship also includes a bell, docklines and fenders as standard, and a boat hook, too.
Even with a full array of options, a Mainship 414 Trawler should list somewhere in the mid-$400K range, not a bad price for a boat of this size. Mainship is known for building value into their boats, and this one, apparently, is no exception. The single diesel helps, too, and will reduce maintenance costs.
A 35-lb plow anchor and rode are included as standard, but the 414T's pulpit will carry two hooks – we think a second plow would fit best, maybe something around 60 lbs for extra holding power. No boat should sail without two anchors.
For comparison, we found a number of similar trawler yachts from middle-of-the-road builders, most based in the Far East, with price tags in the same range as the Mainship. Choosing among them is difficult to do on paper. But move into the "big names" and the boats that are designed for ocean crossings, or are much more "up-market" brands and the prices skyrocket: A same-size trawler yacht from a famous prestigious brand, but with twin Zeus pods, runs around $744,000. A single-screw tug-yacht of similar size, again from a top builder, costs around $722,000. These boats are generally heavier and have much more teak and wood in them and certainly more man-hours of labor.
Mainship is a price-point builder and wise consumers would carefully consider how much boat they really need for the mission intended. If you are not going to be like Jacques Cousteau, then perhaps it is just what you need.
The bottom line: We'd surely check out the Mainship 414 Trawler before buying a similar boat, whether we were planning long cruises or just a trip across the bay.

I can't work out whether this is the most inspired choices for Doctor Who in the world ever. Or one of the worst? Certainly it's been pretty darned effective generating publicity.
Already on Twitter most people are fed up with swearing Doctor Who tweets like the one below because, as we all know kids, Peter Capaldi played a sweary man in a political comedy (note to self – Peter Capaldi is an actor and therefore capable of playing a role where presumably swearing is less of an essential requirement).
"Knock knock" "Who's there?" "Doctor" "Doctor who?" "Come the fuck in, or fuck the fuck off"
Or perhaps this more visual joke from Time Out (amusing nonetheless):
But my first thought was isn't he a bit old to play the 12th Doctor at 55. Like policeman and, er, real Doctors it seems that the Doctors Who are getting younger and younger. And although I seem to remember John Pertwee being quite old when I was a kid, he was probably only 27 or something – people just looked older back then.
Anyway here's a clip of Peter Capaldi swearing an awful lot in The Thick of It. Probably not great to watch in front of your 8 year old Doctor Who loving son.
The 11 Doctors
1. William Hartnell (1963-1966)
2. Patrick Troughton (1966-1969)
3. Jon Pertwee (1970-1974)
4. Tom Baker (1974-1981)
5. Peter Davison – pictured (1982-1984)
6. Colin Baker (1984-1986)
7. Sylvester McCoy (1987-1996)
8. Paul McGann (1996)
9. Christopher Eccleston (2005)
10. David Tennant (2005-2010)

What's on Your Fitness Bucket List?
By The FIRM Master Instructor Stephanie Huckabee
Many of us keep a list of things we'd like to do before we reach a certain milestone. With my 40th birthday looming, I spent some time evaluating what I would like to include on my own so-called "bucket list" as I move forward in life. My list consisted of things like traveling to specific places, learning to cook my grandmother's dressing and actually reading many of the classic literature titles currently gathering dust on my book shelf.
But what about a bucket list for exercise? Have you ever thought about keeping a running list of your dreams for fitness? Making a list of your long-term goals along with some smaller ones along the way could be just what you need to keep you motivated for years to come!

In external beam radiation therapy , a machine called a linear accelerator produces radiation. Short bursts of x-rays are directed from the machine at your cancer. The x-rays come out in a square-shaped manner. The radiation oncologist designs special blocks or uses special columnators within the machine to shape the radiation beam so that it treats the cancer and as little normal tissue as possible. Newer techniques, such as conformal therapy and intensity modulated treatment (IMRT) may be used to help deliver as precise and controlled a dose to the tumor area as possible. In general, radiation for non-Hodgkins lymphoma will involve treating the areas involved with the lymphoma.
Radiation of a Tumor

Like chemotherapy , the side effects from radiation result from injury to the normal tissue. There are many ways that the radiation oncologist can customize your treatment to try to kill as much cancer while sparing as much normal tissue as possible. The radiation oncologist will determine how many treatments you will receive. Sometimes they will be once a day and sometimes twice a day. Each treatment generally only takes a few minutes. The total treatment time can range from 5-8 weeks depending on the total dose required.
Radiation therapy can be given to treat cancer at its initial site or when it has spread. In some cases, once cancer has spread, radiation is no longer curative. However, the treatments can help resolve problems that the cancer may be causing, including local pain and weakness.
Many people believe that when you have received a certain dose of radiation you can no longer get any more treatment. It is true that each tissue in the body can only safely tolerate a certain dose of radiation. However, the therapy is very focused, and it is possible that you can get additional treatments to an already treated area or certainly to an area not yet treated. Ask your radiation oncologist about what dose you can safely receive.

What to Watch Out for at E3 2014
Los Angeles is about to be hit with a flood of gamers, developers and console makers as the annual Electronic Entertainment Expo kicks off next week. Last year's, E3 (as the show is more commonly known) was dominated by hardware as both Sony and Microsoft unveiled their next-gen consoles—the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One respectively. This year's E3, however, will be about the games.
The bulk of the action comes Monday, with Microsoft starting the day and Sony ending it with competing press conferences. As with last year, Nintendo is opting to skip a single live presentation in favor of smaller booth shows, and a pre-recorded video announcement on Tuesday morning. Top publishers such as Activision, Electronic Arts and Ubisoft will also have announcements—some they'll make on their own and some that'll be made on stage with Microsoft and Sony.
Here's a guide for what to watch out for at E3:
Microsoft Xbox One: E3 begins in earnest with Microsoft's press event Monday at 9 a.m. PT. The company is in an underdog position after its latest hardware, the Xbox One, has lagged behind the rival PlayStation 4 since the two console launched last fall. (The PlayStation 4 has sold 7 million units so far, compared to 5 million for the Xbox One.) With that in mind, Microsoft is going to put an emphasis this E3 on games with the hopes of luring back gamers who've so far skipped out on this generation of Xbox.
Each year, Microsoft shows off a mix of entertainment apps, games focused on the family and kids, and hardcore games such as Call of Duty. Well, it just so happens that this November, Activision will be releasing "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare," which features some in-game acting from Kevin Spacey. We wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft doesn't bring Activision on stage to demo this new first-person shooter. We also expect to see demos of other upcoming titles "Sunset Overdrive" and "Project Spark." And of course, there will be plenty of Halo news too. We'll likely see at least a new trailer for "Halo 5: Guardians" (which won't release until 2015), and maybe details on a Halo TV show or movie.
Sony PlayStation 4: Sony will end Monday with a press event of its own at 6 p.m. PT, and we expect it to be filled with jabs and jokes making fun of Microsoft's trailing console. But while Sony will surely celebrate its lead, the focus (as it was last year) will be on new games PlayStation owners will get to play over the next year or two. Part of the reason Sony has pulled out to an early lead over Microsoft this generation, according to industry analysts and pundits, is the fact that it's focused the PlayStation 4 on gameplay with little attention for apps that turn the console into an all-around living room entertainment hub like an Apple TV or Amazon Kindle Fire TV.
Among the titles we expect to see in game previews and trailers for: the new first-person shooter "Destiny" (from Halo-creator-turned independent developer Bungie Studios), the Sony-built game "The Order 1886" (which looks like a mix of an action-adventure game and a third-person shooter), a new Driveclub racing game, and many other games from major developers and indies alike. We're also hoping to hear more about Project Morpheus, Sony's Oculus Rift competitor built for PlayStation 4. So far, Sony has shown of gameplay for the prototype headset, but it hasn't said when it'll go on sale or how much it'll cost. Hopefully, we'll get some answers on Monday.
Nintendo Wii U and 3DS: On Tuesday, Nintendo will release a video where its executives announce its upcoming slate of games for the Wii U and 3DS handheld console. We're expecting this year's video to be one that offers up good news for Nintendo loyalists and details on how the company plans to drum up new business, given the Wii U's disappointing sales so far. We expect to see Nintendo's first lineup of figurines built to work with Wii U games, a la Disney Infinity and Skylanders. And we could even hear about plans to build consoles for emerging markets.
We're also looking for gameplay from " Super Smash Bros.", which will arrive later this year for Wii U and 3DS, more information on the 3DS remakes of "Pokemon Omega Ruby" and "Pokemon Alpha Sapphire," and (we so very dearly hope) the announcement of a new Zelda game for Wii U.
Everyone else: There will surely be surprises, but game developers should have plenty of announcements on Monday and Tuesday of their own. Electronic Arts will host a Monday event in which we expect to hear details on the follow up to the hit first-person shooter "Battlefield 4" (potentially one that works in sandbox elements a la " Watchdogs" and "Grand Theft Auto"), as well as new Dragon Age and Star Wars games, and maybe even an updated on the sequel to last-generation's cult favorite "Mirror's Edge."
Ubisoft will have a Monday event as well, where new Assassin's Creed and Tom Clancy games should make their debut. Warner Bros. will be at E3 showing off "Batman Arkham Knight", which has been delayed until 2015. Capcom will be showing off "Ultra Street Fighter IV," among other titles. And Konami will have yet another look at "Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeros."
What else will happen at E3? Stay tuned to WSJD.com—we'll be covering the biggest news live from Los Angeles.

Traffic stop leads to drug and gun charges for Cowpens man
Published: Thursday, September 19, 2013 at 8:58 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, September 19, 2013 at 8:58 p.m.
A Cowpens man was arrested on drug and gun charges after a traffic stop on Highway 14 early Thursday.
Alexandre Emanuel Junco, 35, of 157 Mr. Cash Drive, was charged with driving under suspension, possession of drug paraphernalia, trafficking methamphetamine and possession of a weapon during a violent crime, according to online jail records.
An incident report states that an officer stopped Junco about 1:30 a.m. because he could not read the license. Junco appeared nervous, and the officer and a K9 searched the car, finding two digital scales, methamphetamine and a gun inside the car, the report states.
Junco has been released from the Spartanburg County Detention Facility.

Wow, didn't really expect you to read this far down. The latest iteration of the site is in open beta. It's a gentle open beta-- not in prime-time just yet. It's being hosted over at UpGuard (link) and you are more than welcome to give it a shot. Couple things:
This one will work a little better, the regular expressions it is not 100% accurate for XML parsing but it will suffice any XML valid document for sure.
Calculates md5 sum of files. sort (required for uniq to work). uniq based on only the hash. use cut ro remove the hash from the result.
The command could show you all conecctions if you skip "grep ESTABLISHED"
On a Gentoo system, this command will tell you which packets you have installed and sort them by how much space they consume. Good for finding out space-hogs when tidying up disk space.
I'm working in a group project currently and annoyed at the lack of output by my teammates. Wanting hard metrics of how awesome I am and how awesome they aren't, I wrote this command up.
It will print a full repository listing of all files, remove the directories which confuse blame, run svn blame on each individual file, and tally the resulting line counts. It seems quite slow, depending on your repository location, because blame must hit the server for each individual file. You can remove the -R on the first part to print out the tallies for just the current directory.
This command will generate "CHECK TABLE `db_name.table_name` ;" statements for all tables present in databases on a MySQL server, which can be piped into the mysql command. (Can also be altered to perform OPTIMIZE and REPAIR functions.)
Tested on MySQL 4.x and 5.x systems in a Linux environment under bash.
Busiest seconds:
cat /var/log/secure.log | awk '{print substr($0,0,15)}' | uniq -c | sort -nr | awk '{printf("\n%s ",$0) ; for (i = 0; i<$1 ; i++) {printf("*")};}'
This will create the file /tmp/pkgdetails, which will contain a listing of all the files installed on your RPM-based system (RedHat, Fedora, CentOS, etc). Useful should the RPM system/database become corrupted to find which package installed which files.
Just a handy way to get all the unique links from inside all the html files inside a directory. Can be handy on scripts etc.
Save the script as: sort_file
Usage: sort_file < sort_me.csv > out_file.csv
This script was originally posted by Admiral Beotch in LinuxQuestions.org on the Linux-Software forum.
I modified this script to make it more portable.
Found this one little more for me. This one removes the perl dependency (from command 2535).
Source for command : http://www.earthinfo.org/linux-disk-usage-sorted-by-size-and-human-readable/
using mb it's still readable;) a symbol variation
$ du -ms {,.[^.]}* | sort -nk1
Note you have also the --xml option ;)
You can replace "sort -nu" with "sort -u" for a word list sorted or "sort -R" for a random-sorted line
(edit: corrected)
somewhat faster version to see the size of our directories. Size will be in Kilo Bytes. to view smallest first change '-k1nr' to '-k1n'.
This commands will make it easier to select only common items between two files being compared. If your lines start with things other than lowercase a-z, adjust this Regex appropriately. Number of lines in the output has been set to no more than 10000, and should be adjusted as needed.
This set of commands was very convenient for me when I was preparing some xml files for typesetting a book. I wanted to check what styles I had to prepare but coudn't remember all tags that I used. This one saved me from error-prone browsing of all my files. It should be also useful if one tries to process xml files with xsl, when using own xml application.
Tells sort to ignore all characters before the Xth position in the first field per line. If you have a list of items one per line and want to ignore the first two characters for sorting purposes, you would type "sort -k1.3". Change the "1" to change the field being sorted. The decimal value is the offset in the specified field to sort by.

It was raining when I arrived atthe Alamo Drafthouse South Lamar location for the last time in its originalform. Its facade, still converted into a Frankenweenie ad from last year�s Fantastic Fest, bore a marquee that said it all, �Last night at the Alamo�. Whileit�s true that in nine months� time, South Lamar will be back on its feet, newly renovated with a stunning lobby and three additional screens, at thatmoment I was sad to think of the original building going away. It had thecharacter and charm of the early Alamo locations, when the company foundabandoned movie theaters and occupied their shells like Cinephile hermit crabs.However, nothing lasts forever and Alamo Drafthouse is no exception. Theirtremendous success has led to growth and Alamo is now moving into a new era.Renovation of a flagship location like South Lamar is an almost perfectmetaphor for what is occurring to Alamo Drafthouse as a business. <>>
All these thoughts went through myhead as I stepped into that alien-invasion themed lobby on January 3rdfor the closing night events. There was a crowd gathered for the sendoff celebration;a night of special movies that included, among others, premieres ofTexas Chainsaw 3D, John Dies at the End, and Wrong. Founder Tim League wasgiving interviews to local news outlets in the center of the oddly long, hallway-likelobby of the current building. Lining the walls were tables with silent auctionitems and at the back of the lobby a costume photo op had been set up. It was asendoff party in grand Alamo Drafthouse style but, if this is the first you�rehearing of the Alamo, you may be wondering why I�m so sentimental about a movietheater. <>>
Let mepaint a picture that I�m sure will be familiar to a lot of you. You decide thatyou want to go to a movie. You arrive at the theater and a ticket costs you 10to 15 dollars. Once you get inside, you find a massive line for your film.There�s no telling where you�re going to be seated and if you have a group itbecomes even more complicated. The snack bar has put a massive price tag onpopcorn and soda and again there are separate lines for food. Once in the theater, people around you talk, text, and answer their phones. During three consecutive visits toa multiplex I had someone nearby answer their phone and have a conversation. Maybe there�sa �please silence your cell phone� ad attached the movie but who cares; goodluck finding a manager and if you do, good luck in getting him to solve theproblem. The pre-show 'entertainment' consists of commercials, that�s it, they may try todress it up as movie news but make no mistake, they are ads for Coke andnetwork television shows. This summarizes my night out at most theater chains over thelast twenty years.<>>
Alamo Drafthouse is a 16-year-old theaterchain founded by Tim and Karrie League and it is an entirely different creature.It started with a small location in Austin showing second-run movies and has grown to more than 11 locations in several states. The venue servesa full menu of food and liquor; and that�s wonderful. Trust me, many a sub-parmovie came up a whole letter grade in my estimation thanks to beer (*I do notdrink when reviewing films for articles). The menu is often crafted to the theme of the movie and the beer and wineselection is expansive, featuring a wide variety of local brewers. You have atable in front of your seat and can order as much as you like from a serverusing little cards so you don�t have to talk during the movie. Alamo Drafthousealso features all-reserve seating; no more lines ever. <>>
Tim League introduces John Dies at the End on South Lamar Closing Night.
Director Don Coscarelli (Phantasmseries, John Dies at the End) called Tim League the �Ultimate Showman�; showmanshipis key to Alamo�s success and another way it is truly different from othercinemas. Here, the pre-show is tremendously entertaining;made up of old movie clips and offbeat videos themed by the feature you�ve cometo see. In addition to new movies, all manner of old and rare films arescreened, often with the director or other special guest in attendance.Different nights have themes with titles like, Girlie Night, Terror Tuesdays,and Action Pack. There�s even a group called Master Pancake that holds liveMST3K style screenings. <>>
Last and best of all is Alamo�s No Talking Zone policy. They have a constant rotation of new and amusing Public Service Announcement trailersstating that once the movie starts there is no talking or texting allowed.People who cause a disturbance during a showing can and will be ejected. Oneof Alamo�s no talking PSAs,�Angry Voicemail�, was recently a big hit on YouTube.
So theAlamo Drafthouse is great, but why is South Lamar closing so important? Over much of thelast decade and a half, Alamo has been a hotbed of innovation, but remained confined to Austin and Texas. There were fourAustin locations, all preexisting venuesthat Alamo converted, and not much else. In the last few years word of mouth has grown and Alamohas begun to open locations in other cities and states. A year ago, they opened a new Austin location, Slaughter Lane (that�s the proper name of the road, not aclever subtitle), and it is distinct because it was the first Austin site to bebuilt ground up as an Alamo Drafthouse. The Drafthouse is poised to gonationwide and start competing head to head against the other cinema chains.New buildings custom made to be Drafthouses represent a shift in the companyidentity from local small business to national corporate player.The conversionof South Lamar is a point of no return from one state of being to the other. Itcarries tremendous hope for providing many more people a superior film-going experience but comes with the fear of losing an Alamo Drafthouse that was familiar, local, and personal. Last year, myself and a couple of thousand other film fanatics all but moved in to South Lamar for eight days of genre films at Fantastic Fest. Sixteen hours a day for eight days, we ate every meal there and between every screening we huddled in the front, comparing and critiquing films we'd just seen. It was a home away from home and this amazing, classic venue for the best cinema experience of my life. Its facade was a marvel, I will miss its style.<>>
Till we meet again.
So now,the party is over at the old South Lamar and it is closed for its metamorphosis. It�s time for the next phase, Alamo Drafthouse is moving onto a muchlarger stage. They have nine locations across Texas, as well as locations in Missouriand Virginia. Additional locations are under construction in New York,Colorado, and California with more to come. Just today, Alamo Drafthouse wasgiven permission by city planners in San Francisco to proceed with therenovation of the New Mission Theater. The New Mission was built in 1916 andAlamo will restore its main screen and add four additional screening areas. Whenthe South Lamar location opens in nine months, just in time for Fantastic Fest 2013,it will be as a fully modernized showplace, with improved lobby and parking. <>>I do look forward to this brave new cinema with allthat is new and flashy but I hope that South Lamar will retain the AlamoDrafthouse style, love of film, and creativity that helped make going to themovies a truly great experience again.

4.5-1 Bribery of a Witness -- § 53a-149
Revised to December 1, 2007
The defendant is charged [in count ___] with bribery of a witness. The statute defining this offense reads in pertinent part as follows:
a person is guilty of bribery of a witness if (he/she) (offers / confers / agrees to confer) upon a witness any benefit to influence the testimony or conduct of such witness in, or in relation to, an official proceeding.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this charge, the state must prove the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Element 1 - Witness in an
official proceeding
The first element is that <insert name of bribery target> was a witness in an official proceeding. A "witness" is any person summoned, or who may be summoned, to give testimony in an official proceeding. An "official proceeding" is any proceeding held or that may be held before any legislative, judicial, administrative or other agency or official authorized to take evidence under oath, including any referee, hearing examiner, commissioner or notary or other person taking evidence in connection with any proceeding. In this case, the state alleges that <insert name of bribery target> was to be a witness in <insert type of proceeding>.
Element 2 - Benefit offered
The second element is that the defendant (offered / conferred / agreed to confer) upon a witness any benefit. "Benefit" means monetary advantage, or anything regarded by the beneficiary as a monetary advantage, including a benefit to any person or entity in whose welfare the beneficiary is interested. It makes no difference that such a witness does not accept the benefit. The crime is committed if the defendant merely makes the offer to confer such a benefit, or even if (he/she) merely agrees to confer such benefit. In this case, the state alleges that the benefit was <insert alleged benefit>.
The third element is that the (offering / conferring / agreeing to confer) a benefit was made with the specific intent to influence the testimony or the conduct of a witness in relation to the official proceedings in issue. A person acts "intentionally" with respect to a result when (his/her) conscious objective is to cause such result. <See Intent: Specific, Instruction 2.3-1.>
In summary, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that 1) <insert name of bribery target> was a witness in an official proceeding, 2) the defendant (offered / conferred / agreed to confer) upon (him/her) a benefit, specifically <insert alleged benefit>, and 3) the defendant intended that the benefit would influence the testimony or conduct of <insert name of bribery target> in the official proceeding.
If you unanimously find that the state
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements of the crime of
bribery of a witness, then you shall find the defendant guilty. On the other
hand, if you unanimously find that the state has failed to prove beyond a
reasonable doubt any of the elements, you shall then find the defendant not

Renowned coach Frank Carroll has helped San Jose's Polina Edmunds for the past half year while coaching rising skating star Gracie Gold.
He knew something many others in figure skating did not: The teens are primed to take on the world.
Carroll was feeling cocksure after they finished first and second in the short program at the U.S. figure skating championships in Boston. He looked Edmunds' coach David Glynn square in the eye in the hallway at TD Garden and said, "I told you this would happen."
While Gold, 18, is not a surprise leader, Edmunds is a downright shock in second place.
Now it will come down to nerves Saturday in the free skate, as the Archbishop Mitty sophomore tries to become the first Bay Area singles skater to qualify for the Winter Olympics since Kristi Yamaguchi in 1992.
A region that has produced some of the sport's biggest names has seen one Olympic skater since Yamaguchi -- ice dancer Beata Handra of Santa Rosa qualified for the 2002 Games only when two teams that finished ahead of her at trials were ineligible because of citizenship issues.
Edmunds, 15, will be the third-to-last skater in the final group Saturday night at TD Garden, where she will perform an ambitious free skate with two triple-triple jump combinations. Her theme is from the Norwegian play "Peer Gynt," with music by Edvard Grieg.
Edmunds, who began skating at Sharks Ice San Jose at 20 months, is comfortable with the highly technical program.
"It's been a half a year since I have been training with all the difficulties," she said before leaving for Boston. "All the triples are equally easy and equally difficult."
After the short program Thursday night, Carroll told Edmunds, "You were wonderful."
Then the coach who works with Edmunds once a month told reporters, "She is the future."
While Edmunds created a buzz in the figure skating world, her coaches remained grounded Friday as they prepared for the four-minute-plus free skate.
"She has a lot of experience to take it one day at a time and not get overwhelmed by one thing in particular," said Glynn, who has coached Edmunds since she was 4.
Edmunds will try to become one of three Americans to earn a berth at the Sochi Games starting Feb. 6 in southern Russia. Conventional wisdom suggested two-time reigning U.S. champion Ashley Wagner and Gold were the prohibitive favorites in Boston. But the third spot was an unknown.
While Gold has a commanding lead, Edmunds is just ahead of 2010 Olympian Mirai Nagasu and Wagner. Nagasu and Gold are the final two skaters for the long program.
Edmunds planned to prepare Friday like any other training day. She skated for an hour at a private rink and stayed near her hotel.
"We try not to be around many people," said Nina Edmunds, her mother and coach. "It's concentration here. No time for play."
Edmunds, who has competed at national championships since age 11, knows the routine. She isn't afraid of the limelight or telling it like it is.
Pressure? What pressure?
The teen plans to "trust my feet not to get too nervous and feel like I have pressure, because I don't really have pressure right now," Edmunds said. "I just really want to go out there and skate."
