SANTA CLARA -- Because Justin Smith is one of the NFL's most remarkable iron men, he deserves the benefit of the doubt. But evidence mounted Friday that the defensive lineman's streak of 185 consecutive starts is in jeopardy as the 49ers prepare for their NFC West showdown with the Seattle Seahawks.
Smith, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, did not practice Friday, capping a week in which he was sidelined by an undisclosed elbow injury. The 49ers listed him as questionable on their injury report.
Ricky Jean Francois sounded so certain that he would fill in at right defensive tackle that at one point he called it "just another start. Ain't going to be sitting on the bench. ... So the preparation this week was a little different."
But the 6-foot-3, 295-pounder later clarified that coaches had not officially informed of his status. "So it might still be in the air," he said.
If Smith does sit out, it would end the third-longest starting streak in the NFL. The only players with longer current streaks are Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive back Ronde Barber (213) and Washington Redskins linebacker London Fletcher (197).
Smith, 33, has not missed a start since 2001, his rookie season with the Cincinnati Bengals.
"He's impressive. Not only to play in the line, but to play the way he does. He plays every single play," 49ers offensive tackle Joe Staley said.
In what might have been nothing more than gamesmanship, the 49ers upgraded Smith's status from doubtful to questionable over the course of a few hours Friday despite the fact that the lineman never took the field.
Coach Jim Harbaugh, who is loath to discuss injuries, was predictably tight-lipped, saying only that Smith did a lot of "rehab, strengthening and conditioning."
The 49ers (10-3-1), who have clinched at least a wild-card spot, could win the NFC West by beating the Seahawks (9-5) on Sunday night in Seattle.
The Seahawks have won three in a row and five of their past six games. They have scored at least 50 points in consecutive games. Led by running back Marshawn Lynch and quarterback Russell Wilson, the Seahawks are 6-0 at home.
Francois, a fourth-year player from LSU, earned strong reviews from the 49ers coaching staff after filling in for an injured Smith in the second half against the New England Patriots last week. He sacked Tom Brady on a third-and-15 play in the fourth quarter.
"It was fun playing against him," Francois said Friday. "It was a big steppingstone for me to play in a game like that and have a tremendous sack at the end of the game that actually made a difference."
Francois vows to be ready if needed.
"I'm just trying to show my coaches that I'm a starter, that I'm someone you can trust when the times get really tough," he said.
"The last two years, he's the toughest back we've gone against,'' 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said. "Our guys have a lot of respect for him. But he's doing it against everybody. He's got almost 1,400 yards already."

Local chef David Walford of Splendido says there's a special energy in the air at the Beaver Creek Food & Wine Weekend. "I think everyone puts a little more effort into this one," he said. "I feel like all the local restaurants step up when you have all these renowned people from out of town here, it raises the bar a little."And while Walford thinks it's the celebrity faces from out of town that give the event its energy, many of those industry figureheads say they come to the event for the energy that's already here. "The setting just couldn't be any more perfect," says chef John Besh, who owns a handful of renowned restaurants and has appeared on "Top Chef Masters," "Iron Chef America" and "The Food Network Challenge.""Getting up, getting a good workout on the mountain and then coming back and enjoying a gourmet meal, it's like heaven for me," said Besh. "And to participate from a chef's standpoint is particularly fun because at this event, it's small enough where I can actually get together and interact with the guests that come."The Beaver Creek Wood & Wine Weekend 2013 begins Thursday with a Meet the Chefs Reception from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Black Diamond Bistro at The Charter in Beaver Creek, and continues through Sunday where the last event will be the Celebrity Chef Ski Race & Brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. In between is a host of other fun-filled opportunities; tickets are sold individually to each event and are available at beavercreek.com/foodandwine.'Food and life lessons'With Food and Wine Magazine, "Wine Wise Guy" Anthony Giglio gets to travel all over the planet to great events."It's the greatest job in the world," he said, speaking over the phone from his home in New York. One of the elements he likes best about the Beaver Creek Food & Wine event is the intimate setting the ski resort atmosphere creates."It's contained into the little village, which is just awesome. You walk everywhere, and there's something to see and something to do in every direction," he said. A realist in the world of wine, he points out the fact that within the friendly confines of Beaver Creek Village and the Food & Wine Weekend, there's no need to operate a vehicle."It's a big plus for adults worried about enjoying the wine component and having to get around," he said.But his favorite part of the event is something very children oriented. "My daughter Sofia is nine and my son Marco is seven, they put skis on for the first time last year, and they didn't want to get off the mountain for three days straight," he said. As far as food and wine goes, Giglio is most excited about the friends of James Beard Benefit Dinner with chef Besh on Friday night. "I love the dinner at Allie's Cabin because we take the open sled up the mountain with a bunch of blankets on, everyone's trying to keep warm," he said. "It's really cool for us because we have nothing like that here in New York."Besh says like Giglio, he also appreciates the fact that he can enjoy the event with his family."My wife Jenifer and I love the Catholic mass up there," Besh said. "It's right there, standing room only with a great priest."He says at the dinner at Allie's Cabin, he plans on forgoing his typical New Orleans flair and getting back to some of his roots with an alpine-inspired menu. After serving in the first Iraq war in the '90s, Besh studied culinary arts near Oberammergau at the base of the German Alps."It's a place where I learned so many food and life lessons," he said. "I just fell in love with the cuisine there ... when I think of food and I think of skiing that's what really resonates with me - kasespatzle and wild game and that sort of thing. I'm really looking forward to putting a lot of this together again this year."Giglio says for that event, they'll be serving merlot from La Jota and cabernet from Mt. Brave Wines. 'Full circle'Chef Sam Talbot, who was voted a fan favorite on the Bravo hit show "Top Chef," will be on hand at both the Grand Tasting on Saturday night and the Bright Future Foundation Benefit Dinner on Friday night. Sheri Mintz, executive director of Bright Future Foundation, says while the foundation is blessed to be a part of some pretty special events here in the Vail Valley, meeting chef Talbot is sure to be among the highlights of the year for her."We all really fell in love with him on 'Top Chef,'" said Mintz, "So to have him here at Splendido and in support of the Bright Future Foundation is a dream come true."It's a dinner the wine wise guy is particularly excited about, as well. Giglio will be pairing all the wines from the Hundred Acre family, including the Layer Cake Central Coast Chardonnay, Cherry Pie Pinot Noir, Garnacha, their Italian red called "If You See Kay," and the rare Hundred Acre 2007 Ancient Way Shiraz."If you can get your hands on it, it sells for $400 a bottle," Giglio says of the 2007 Ancient Way Shiraz. "If you can find it it's usually through the winery or through a collector. They sell it in three packs, which range from $850 to $1,000 per three pack."For Talbot's part, he plans on serving figs brazed Koren style, an 18-hour pork shoulder with white beans, white sesame and pink grapefruit, and roasted yams with a prawn vinaigrette."Just a few things we've been working on and I've been wanting to try out in my own home kitchen," said Talbot. An avid snowboarder, Talbot says he's especially excited about the on-mountain component of the event. "I grew up snowboarding in the Appalachian Mountains," he said. "And started working resort towns all over the country."He said after relocating to New York, a visit to the ski town scene where he started his quest to become the chef he is today will be a homecoming of sorts."That's how I started cooking, by going from mountain to mountain," he said with a chuckle. "I guess it always comes full circle at some point."

SAN FRANCISCO -- Even with six days remaining until Major League Baseball's trade deadline, Giants general manager Brian Sabean felt he was running out of time. Right-hander Matt Cain was examined again Friday, and the prognosis was troubling, so Sabean moved quickly to acquire right-hander Jake Peavy from the Boston Red Sox.
"It was a lot about timing," Sabean said Saturday. "And a lot about the sense of urgency."
Sabean said Cain isn't "responding to the protocols that our orthopedic people are checking on." The longest-tenured Giant was placed on the disabled list Monday with elbow inflammation, and sources say the number of bone chips in his pitching elbow "is significant." Sabean couldn't commit to Cain's pitching again this season, saying he is following the lead of the organization's medical team.
"The longer he goes in this dormant stage, the more we're probably going to have to seek second opinions or more diagnostics, and thus the timeline gets stretched out, or there may be a worst case," Sabean said. "We haven't gotten to that point yet. The impetus to act as quickly as we did (with Peavy) was we really felt that (Cain) is going to be out for a while no matter what, and we didn't want to stay as constituted."
Peavy, 33, will take Yusmeiro Petit's spot in the rotation and make his Giants debut Sunday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Giants and Red Sox first spoke about 10 days ago, and Sabean said the path was cleared once the Red Sox agreed to pay all but $2 million of the approximately $5 million left on Peavy's deal. The Giants sent pitching prospects Edwin Escobar and Heath Hembree to Boston and optioned reliever George Kontos back to Triple-A Fresno to clear a roster spot.
The savings allow Sabean to maintain financial flexibility as the deadline approaches, and he remains on the hunt for a second base upgrade, although he said there aren't enough options on the market. In a tough market for buyers, the Giants are thrilled they were able to pick up Peavy, a former All-Star under Bochy in San Diego.
"Jake and I have a long-standing relationship," Bochy said. "I've always admired how he plays the game. He's all-out, he's full-bore in anything he does. He's a guy you want on your club."
The Giants in recent months had eight scouts watch Peavy. They loved what they saw, despite his 1-9 record and 4.72 ERA. Peavy had given up a league-high 20 homers, and the Giants believe he should benefit greatly from a move to AT&T Park.
"They all recommended that we trade for him," Sabean said. "He's still a solid fourth starter in the big leagues."
Peavy won the N.L. Cy Young Award in 2007 but hasn't pitched in the league since 2009. He arrived in the late innings Saturday and said he's excited to be back in a tight race.
"A guy in my situation, this is what you show up to do at the beginning of the year -- win a World Series," Peavy said. "This team knows how to get it done and has guys that have done it before."
Bochy believes a return to the N.L. West will be a big boost for Peavy.
"Like all pitchers, yeah, he probably doesn't quite throw as hard, but he's still 92 (mph), in that area, and has a good breaking ball and changeup," Bochy said. "He has that fire, and that's the most important thing. He's as tough a competitor as any pitcher or player I've ever had -- that's how hard he goes for you."

Saturday, November 3, 2012
Lexington, SC -- The Aiken volleyball team defied the odds against them all season, but couldn't do it one last time, losing to top-ranked Hillcrest 3-1 in the SCHSL Class 4A state volleyball championship.
With a pair of all-state players on each team, and a 2011 all-state selection in Aiken's Anna Tovo, both teams came out swinging in the first set. The Rams led 7-2, then Aiken held the advantage 14-12, but Hillcrest took the set 25-23 on a net ball by Aiken.
Any momentum the Rams picked up was quickly smashed by a firing squad of Natasha Dicks kills. The Hornets went to the region player of the year over and over in the set, and she delivered. Aiken romped to a 25-13 score.
Hillcrest, the defending state champs, showed their meddle though. They brought it right back to the Hornets, topping them 25-14 in the third set.
Then, in the fourth and final set, a series of controversial calls went against Aiken, building up a comfortable lead for the Rams who held on to win the set and the championship, 25-20.
In the match, Dicks had 19 kills and Tovo had 14. Senior Tyler Smith added seven kills and five blocks for Aiken. Junior setter Emily Teelon had 41 assists, and sophomore libero Taylor Mabry led the defense with 19 digs.
The Hornets weren't expected by most to compete for the title this year after losing a number of players from the 2010 championship and 2011 runner-up team.
They were challenged further by a torn ACL that held Tovo out until the middle of October.
Graduating seniors Dicks, Smith and Mary Cate West finish their Aiken careers with a 118-17 record, one state championship (2010) and two runner-up (2011, 2012) finishes.

WALNUT CREEK -- Soon there will be fewer children's story times, less drop-in homework help for students and less opportunity for readers to peruse the stacks at the city's two libraries.
The Walnut Creek City Council made the decision Tuesday to cut library hours from 56 to 44 hours a week, starting July 1. This means that besides Sundays, the libraries on Oak Grove Road and North Broadway will be closed another full day each week. The libraries will also close earlier on other days.
The exact schedule has not been worked out, but it's clear that additional closures at Contra Costa County's busiest libraries will likely mean staffing cuts and less access to cherished services for patrons.
"What we know is that citizens in Walnut Creek love their libraries, and 75 percent (of them) have library cards," said Jessica Hudson, librarian for Contra Costa County Library. "We understand the choices the council had to make with a limited amount of money, and we are sad, but we want to give the most and best service we can. We are going to do what we can to mitigate the effect on the public."
On Tuesday, the Walnut Creek City Council committed to paying $234,000 for library hours for two years. The county pays for 35 hours a week at each of its 26 libraries; if a city wants more than 35 hours of weekly open time at its libraries, that city must pay for the additional hours.
For years, a parcel tax known as Measure Q paid for an additional 21 hours a week at Walnut Creek's two libraries. But that tax expired in 2010, and the additional hours were funded through savings of the tax when the downtown library was under construction and not yet open. That money will soon run out, and with a multimillion-dollar budget shortfall, some Walnut Creek leaders said the city can't afford to keep the library hours at the same level.
Still, the decision left council members and others disappointed.
"We feel that there has never been an honest discussion on library hours and how to fund them, not just in this budget cycle but into the future," said Kristin Anderson, executive director of the Walnut Creek Library Foundation. "The city has known (for years) that Measure Q was going to be gone."
This comes only four years after Walnut Creek opened its new $40 million downtown library and parking garage.
"Why would you spend all of that money on a new library when funding for existing services was in peril?" wrote Matt Sullivan in a letter to the City Council. "I think you should reexamine the issue and insure you can find the money to fully fund both Walnut Creek libraries."
Some residents have speculated the closures have to do with a larger political strategy by some in Walnut Creek to show a need for a sales tax increase, to pay for city services such as library hours.
Walnut Creek is not the only Contra Costa city bracing for changes in library hours come July. Because of budget woes in Antioch, that city's library will be open only 28 hours a week. The city can't afford to pay for the maintenance and operations costs the county requires, Hudson said.
The cutback in hours shouldn't affect the county library's balanced budget, but it will likely affect staffing levels. Each Walnut Creek library will lose two staffers due to the loss of hours, but those employees could be put into other open positions, Hudson said. It's something that will be worked out with the library system's labor unions, she said.

Nickelback and Instagram are two things that are interminably ripe for mockery, so it stands to reason that marrying them in some way — like, say, by remixing the unholy earworm "Photograph" into a spoof song called "Look At This Instagram" — would yield a truly potent piece of satirical synergy.
College Humor put that theory to the test, and, wouldn't you know it — they cured cancer.

Regional planning group OKs road projects
Published: Thursday, October 31, 2013 at 4:20 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 31, 2013 at 4:20 p.m.
The French Broad River Municipal Planning Organization approved a list of new road projects to add to its comprehensive transportation plan at a meeting in Asheville Thursday afternoon.
New projects added to the five-county, multi-modal transportation plan include a construction of bicycle lanes along Rutledge Drive and a widening project with bike lanes added to Little River Road in Henderson County. Two additional projects, including improvements to the county's Brickyard Road and North Highland Lake Road, were also added to the plan.
Amendments to the plan, which also focused on roads in Buncombe and Haywood counties, passed unanimously.
Paul Black, director of the French Broad River MPO, said that the Henderson County Transportation Advisory Committee has submitted its list of remaining transportation improvement projects, prioritized into a top 10 list. The MPO will select 14-17 projects next month to add to the state's hopper for scoring and possible inclusion in the state's transportation improvement program.

DOE Supports Landmark Rooftop Solar Project
Installation of solar panels like these on a Chicago building will be supported nationally by DOE's Project Amp.
DOE announced on June 22 a conditional commitment to provide a partial guarantee for a $1.4 billion loan to support Project Amp. This initiative will support the installation of solar panels on industrial buildings across the country. Electricity generated from those panels will contribute directly to the electrical grid instead of powering the buildings on which they were installed. With funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, Project Amp includes the installation of approximately 733 megawatts (MW) of photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. This will nearly equal the total amount of PV installed in the United States in 2010. The project sponsor estimates Project Amp will create at least one thousand jobs over a four-year period.
Project Amp will enable a wide distribution of solar power over approximately 750 existing rooftops owned and managed by Prologis, a leading global provider of industrial real estate. The first phase of the project includes a 15.4-MW installation in Southern California. The power from Phase 1 will be sold to Southern California Edison. Additional installations will be built in up to 28 states and the District of Columbia.
Project Amp is expected to produce up to one million megawatt hours annually, enough to power over 88,000 homes. At this level, the project is expected to avoid approximately 580,000 tons of carbon pollution annually. Including the latest project, DOE's Loan Programs Office has reserved or committed to over $12 billion in loan guarantees to solar generation projects.

Saturday, October 13, 2012
Georgia is enjoying its BYE week, but a former Bulldogs great was on the field at Augusta Christian Saturday.
David Greene was leading the MVP Football Camp for young players.
Yes, the same David Greene that won more games at Quarterback than any other in UGA history.
He spent the day teaching the youngsters the basics on and off the field and offering up a few keepsakes at the end of the day.
Needless to say, this guy has a little bit of experience in the game, and he loves the opportunity to pass it along.
Greene, "I was able to get a chance to play in high school and college and got a chance to play some pro ball, so I kind of feel like I have a responsibility to kind of pass the game along. So, I had the opportunity to come out here. I got invited out here and work with the kids, and I just had a lot of fun today."
In four years under center, Greene experienced the best and worst times at Georgia so he knows what the Bulldogs are going through right now trying to bounce back from last week's loss at South Carolina.
The most important thing...making sure to remember that one game doesn't make a season.
"They work 300-and-something days out of the year just to play twelve or thirteen games. You might as well get your money's worth," Greene said. "No reason to hang your hats. We had a tough loss, but now it's time to regroup. You can always bounce back, and you never know what's going to happen."
Today's camp drew kids between six and fifteen years old, and they plan on being back in the augusta area sometime this winter.

You know how you have that someone special on your gift list to buy for this year? It's the person you really want to give something extra special to, and all you have to do is find the perfect gift. Easier said than done, right? Maybe not. Finding the perfect gift this year is easier than you think. In fact, we recently spoke with Rachel and Hayley, two gift-giving pros, to find out what they recommend for all types of perfect gifts for all types of special people.
But first, let's get to know a little bit about them.
What were your first furry friends?
Hayley: Mine was the Pink Sweet Cuddles Teddy. I named her Pinky, and I bought her a Hannah Montana shirt and skirt outfit. I do still have her and I play with her all the time! She's my fave. Rachel and I made up a club all about BABW! We're the Build-A-Bear Sisters, and we have a band and a club, and LOTS of furry friends but our first ones are still always our favorites.
(Note from Mom: Wow! They also told me that band even has a theme song! Together, Rachel and Hayley have about 2 dozen furry friends.)
Rachel: Brown Sugar Puppy, and I named her Brown Sugar Puppy because that's her name! I got a Hannah Montana outfit too. I play with it all the time. We play house!
Have you ever played in Bearville?
Hayley: Yes, millions of times! I like playing games, shopping, and decorating my Cub Condo.
Rachel: I like visiting people's houses to find new styles for my sister's Cub Condo.
What is your favorite dressed furry friend in the holiday catalog?
Hayley: My fave is Lil' Bunny Big Ears with her elf costume. I like that one best because it's so ADORABLE! It's pawsitively festive!
Rachel: I like Rudolph, with his striped red coat. I like him because his nose lights up! (*Note: Rudolph's striped cape is no longer available online.)
Name two people (for example: teachers, mail person, babysitters, aunts, uncles, grandparents, BFFs, cousins, etc.) that you would give a gift card to for Christmas or another holiday. Why do you think a gift card would be good to give them instead of an already-made furry friend?
Hayley: I would give gift cards to my two BFF's, Kayla and Alaina. I think a gift card is better because then you can have the fun of making your own furry friend. Plus, you don't have to worry that they won't like your gift because they can choose a gift for themselves.
Rachel: Kaitlynn and Meg, my friends at kindergarten. Gift cards are good because making your own furry friend is the fun part!
Hayley and Rachel are guests from Iowa that I connected with after their mom posted this pawsome pic of each of them in their Halloween costumes (along with their little brother) on our Facebook page. They both want to work at Build-A-Bear Workshop when they grow up, and we think they'd make great additions to the family. Don't you?

ingredient information
Rice Crisp Organic
To Americans, rice is the most familiar food eaten in grain form. It is commonly served as a side dish in American households, but elsewhere it forms the basis for most meals. In fact, half the world's peoples eat rice as their staple food. In some languages, the word for eat means "eat rice." In China, Japan, and Southeast Asia, for instance, the annual per capita consumption of rice is 200 to 400 pounds; in the United States, the per capita consumption is about 17 pounds. Though rice is grown on every continent except Antarctica, China produces more than 90% of the world's rice crop. The United States, because the domestic demand for rice is relatively low, is a major exporter of this grain (although it accounts for only 2% of the world's rice). Rice can be classified according to size: long-grain, medium-grain, and short-grain. Long-grain rice accounts for about 75% of the domestic crop. The slender grains are four to five times longer than they are wide. If properly cooked, they will be fluffy and dry, with separate grains. Medium-grain rice is about twice as long as it is wide and cooks up moister and more tender than long-grain. It is popular in some Asian and Latin American cultures, and is the type of rice most commonly processed to make cold cereals. Short-grain rice may be almost oval or round in shape. Of the three types of rice, it has the highest percentage of amylopectin, the starch that makes rice sticky, or clump together, when cooked. Easy to eat with chopsticks, it is ideal for dishes like sushi. In addition to the size classification, white rices are labeled according to how they've been processed: Enriched rice: Enriched rice has thiamin, niacin, and iron added after milling to replace some of the nutrients lost when the bran layer is removed. As a result, it is higher in these nutrients than brown rice. Converted rice: Converted rice has been soaked and steamed under pressure before milling, which forces some of the nutrients into the remaining portion of the grain so that they are not completely lost in the processing. Enriched parboiled rice is similar to regular enriched rice in terms of thiamin, niacin, and iron, but it has more potassium, folate (folic acid), riboflavin, and phosphorous, though not as much as brown rice. Converted rice takes a little longer to cook than regular rice, but the grains will be very fluffy and separate after they have been cooked. Instant white rice: Instant rice, which actually takes about five minutes to prepare, has been milled and polished, fully cooked, and then dehydrated. It is usually enriched and only slightly less nutritious than regular enriched white rice, but it lacks the satisfying texture of regular rice. Rices are also labeled according to variety: Arborio: Arborio is a starchy white rice, with an almost round grain, grown mainly in the Po Valley of Italy. Traditionally used for cooking the Italian dish risotto, it also works well for paella and rice pudding. Arborio absorbs up to five times its weight in liquid as it cooks, which results in grains of a creamy consistency. Aromatic rices: These are primarily long-grain varieties that have a toasty, nutty fragrance and a flavor reminiscent of popcorn or roasted nuts. Most of these can be found in grocery stores, but a few may be available only at gourmet shops. Basmati: Basmati, the most famous aromatic rice, is grown in India and Pakistan. It has a nutlike fragrance while cooking and a delicate, almost buttery flavor. Unlike other types of rice, the grains elongate much more than they plump as they cook. Lower in starch than other long-grain types, basmati turns out flaky and separate. Although it is most commonly used in Indian cooking, basmati can also be substituted for regular rice in any favorite recipe. It is fairly expensive compared to domestic rice. Glutinous rice (sweet rice): Popular in Japan and other Asian countries, this type of short-grain rice is not related to other short-grain rices. Unlike regular table rice, this starchy grain is very sticky and resilient, and turns translucent when cooked. Its cohesive quality makes it suitable for rice dumplings and cakes, such as the Japanese mochi, which is molded into a shape. Jasmine: Jasmine is a traditional long-grain white rice grown in Thailand. It has a soft texture and is similar in flavor to basmati rice. Jasmine rice is also grown in the United States, and is available in both white or brown forms. Texmati: Certain types of rice--some sold only under a trade name--have been developed in the United States to approximate the flavor and texture of basmati rice. Texmati is one of these; it was developed to withstand the hot Texas climate (there is also a brown rice version). Wehani: An American-grown aromatic rice, Wehani has an unusual rust-colored bran that makes it turn mahogany when cooked. Wild pecan (popcorn rice): Another basmati hybrid, this aromatic rice is tan in color (because not all of the bran has been removed, with a pecanlike flavor and firm texture.

Android Security Flaw Reported, Little Impact Seen
Another season, another revelation about a security flaw involving Google's Android mobile operating system.
The latest discovery is courtesy of a mobile-device security firm called Bluebox, which said Wednesday that 99% of Android devices had a vulnerability that could allow a hacker to modify a legitimate app into one that has malware–malicious software that could control most aspects of the device as well as steal data from it or record calls, among many other things.
Bluebox said it told Google about the vulnerability in February. Google on Friday said that it immediately scanned its Google Play app store and didn't find any evidence that the flaw had been exploited.
Google in March created a software "patch" to repair the issue and provided it to hardware makers and wireless carriers so that they could send it as a software update to existing devices, a spokeswoman said. Samsung has already sent a software updates to some of its devices, she said.
However, some older devices don't always get such software updates.
Bluebox said that hackers could still use several methods to trick mobile-device owners into downloading malicious apps that appeared to be legitimate. For instance, they could offer such apps through app stores that run on Android but are separate from the Google Play app store.
The flaw has existed since 2009, Bluebox said. The first Android device launched in late 2008, and more than 900 million have been activated since then, Google has said.
Android is to mobile what Microsoft Windows is to PCs, meaning it is the No. 1 operating system thus a consistent target of hackers. Oftentimes, the hackers are just trying to make a quick buck by, say, causing a victim's phone to automatically send costly text messages. Google over the years has taken step to beef up its automated security systems for Android apps.
Still, the most recent security-flaw revelation, like its predecessors, appears unlikely to slow down the runaway train that is Android.
Adam J. O'Donnell, architect of the cloud technology group at Sourcefire, another cybersecurity firm, said that "unless some earth-shattering security problem comes along, there really is no vulnerability that may pop up that will disrupt the growth of smartphones," including those powered by Android, which dominates the market.
He added that individuals and companies should "recognize that their phones are really full-blown computers and have a risk profile that is more akin to a PC than an older cell phone."

heh. it was nice putting a person to the name.
I actually had a really good time last night in Stockton. Everyone was warning me about how horrible it was going to be and it just turned out to be a huge party. I could have done with less beligerant drunks, but the show might not have had as many funny moments if it weren't for me lashing out at them.
Craig and Jenn hooked me up lovely. Much thanks to them for putting the show on and holding my hand for the past two days.
take care

The show starts up with an HYHU tease, dedicated to Steve Drebber. The band debates what to play, with Fish saying that the band always opens with Golgi. Trey shoots back that "it's a great song, man", but the band opens with Alumni instead. Notable here is that this show is a graduation party, timed with graduation at nearby UVM. The show took place outdoors, as it very noticeable as the band takes a break to "gas the generators" that ran the equipment. After YEM, which features a relatively tame jam, the band fades in and out and apparently blows a fuse in their monitors. Listen to Trey call Paul to come down and help.
There is a significant Bowie tease in here before GTBT by Fish. In fact, he tries to start up the song twice, but they won't play it. The GTBT is the first set highlight here - loud and raucous playing by Trey. There's more equipment issues after GTBT and Paul is running back and forth trying to get things working. Fluffhead here features an extremely extremely slow Clod section - perhaps the slowest the band has ever played; fortunately the Arrival is beautiful. Post-Fluffhead, listen for Trey saying that his glasses kept falling off during Fluffhead. Post-Lizards, there's an announcement about a brown and black dog walking around injured. Trey also chides Page for forgetting the last song they played and spacing out. Not much to the Sally, but the AC/DC Bag > Possum is smooth.
A fun Icculus in which Trey says that his life plan is based on the Helping Friendly Book starts the second set followed by another one featuring 'the second best trombonist drummer in all of Vermont...and certain parts of New Hampshire...Moses Brown, Moses DeWitt, and Moses Heaps." McGrupp contains a Fish trombone solo which just butchers the closing section of the song. It also features the "check it out" interplay that the band would insert into the studio version of Fluffhead. I like the Curtain here, featuring some DEG teases. At this point, the song was not even 1 year old and had made some strides.
After the Wilson>Peaches, the band stops while someone goes to town to get more kegs and Trey announces "don't forget to pick up your trash before you leave the premises because if you don't do it...someone else will". Fish breaks his snare drum during JJLC and there's a pause while he borrows one from another band. Trey plays with an electronic wolf howl toy and also fools around with the Flintstones theme. I Didn't Know features the 2nd trombone solo of the set (has this happened since?). Flat Fee is likely the fastest they play the song and Whipping Post is particularly nice.
Harpua, the closer of the night, is preceded by a Beverly Hills lyric joke, and a Rocky Top tease. I like this Harpua, which features Poster Nutbag as a Big White Furry Creature from Town, as well as Mike telling Jimmy to "reconsider the goldfish". There's also a Page solo where he is introduced as "Richard Groove Holmes". Hilarious. A ripping Fire ends the set.
Not much musically going on in this show that can't be found elsewhere. The banter, however, makes this one a fun listen, just to hear what it was like in the old days. The band has a lot of fun with the audience, and the mics pick up all sorts of chatter.

How To Buy A Hockey Stick
The hockey stick is an extension of the hockey player's arm. This means the stick has to fit properly, and the length, curve and lie angle need to match both your size and body type as well as the type of game you play.
Shaft types
The shaft you choose is largely a matter of personal choice. Shafts come in many different materials for sticks with different weights and durabilities.
Wood sticks
Modern shafts come in all sorts of materials, including fiberglass, aluminum, carbon-graphite, kevlar and titanium. The blades are usually still made of wood and are attached to the composite stick with glue. These materials make for a lighter stick, but are generally more expensive than wood.
Return To Top
Blades are usually made of wood and attached to the composite stick with glue. Some blades have Kevlar wraps on them.
Determining your blade angle
Hockey sticks are identified as "left," "right," or "straight." This refers to the curve of the blade.

Grapes Red Seedless
This edible berry grows in clusters on small shrubs or climbing vines in temperate zones throughout the world including Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe and North and South America. California is the largest U.S. producer of grapes-both for wine and for the table. There are thousands of grape varieties, each with its own particular use and charm. In general, grapes are smooth-skinned and juicy; they may have several seeds in the center or they may be seedless. A recent study shows that a particular polyphenol in grape skins, resveratrol, inhibits blood platelet aggregation. The difference between red and white wine is that red wine is fermented with the grape skins, while white wine has the skins removed prior to fermentation. So, red wine contains the beneficial resveratrol, while white wine does not

Check ICN Site Availability
According to the 2007 Department of Labor Report (The STEM Workforce Challenge: the role of the Public Workforce System in a National Solution for a Competitive Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Workforce) "American pre-eminence in STEM will not be secured or extended without effort and investments. Trends in K-12 and higher education science and math preparation, coupled with demographic and labor trends, point to a serious challenge: our nation needs to increase the supply and quality of "knowledge workers" whose specialized skills enable them to work productively within STEM industries and occupations."
In order to help students explore STEM careers, Iowa Public Television is providing a series of free ICN sessions related to STEM careers. During these sessions, students will have the opportunity to meet various professionals in IOWA who are working in STEM careers. Students also have an opportunity to see the professional on the job as we will be viewing a short video produced by IPTV during the session.
These sessions are a great resource for schools needing to help students plan their futures. Sign up today!
This session features a civil engineer that works for a prominent engineering firm in Central Iowa. A recent graduate of Iowa State University, this civil engineer works on a variety of projects from land development design, road design to hydraulic and hydrology design.

La Belle Dame Sans Merci
by John Keats
La Belle Dame Sans Merci Introduction
In A Nutshell
John Keats was an English poet writing in the early 19th century, towards the end of what became known as the "Romantic period." The Romantic period isn't just about love stories – it was a political and social movement as well as a literary one. The Romantics were reacting to an 18th century obsession with order, rationality, and scientific precision. Romantic writers felt that these Enlightenment-era thinkers missed the point about what it meant to be human. After all, they argued, you can't write an equation to define human nature. So the Romantic movement was partly a backlash against the rationalism of the 18th century Enlightenment.
When critics talk about the Romantic poets, they usually focus on the "big six": William Blake, William Wordsworth, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge were the oldest of the six, and the younger generation included Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, and our man, John Keats. Keats was the youngest of the six, but he was, alas, the first to die. He was only 25 years old when he died of tuberculosis in February 1821. Who knows what might have happened if he'd lived longer?
When Keats found out that he'd caught tuberculosis from nursing his brother, Tom, he was in despair (a diagnosis of tuberculosis in those days was like a death sentence). Keats felt that he'd just made a breakthrough in his writing, and was only beginning to write the kind of poetry that he was really capable of writing. Keats died in Italy, where the doctors thought the warmer weather might extend his life. He asked that his grave bear only the words "Here lies one whose name was writ in water," because he didn't think that he'd lived up to his potential – his life was too short to be memorable, and his poetry was like words "written in water." Boy, was he wrong – he's now celebrated as one of the most famous English poets of all time, despite his premature death.
"La Belle Dame Sans Merci" was written towards the end of his life, after his brother Tom died, but before he found out that he was dying of the same disease. Keats wrote it in 1819, but it wasn't published until 1820. The version that was published includes a lot of changes recommended by his friend and fellow poet, Leigh Hunt. Most critics, though, prefer the original version, so that's what we use in this guide. You'll know the difference right off the bat: the original version begins with the line, "O what can ail thee, knight at arms," while the edited 1820 version opens with, "Ah, what can ail thee, wretched wight."
Why Should I Care?
"La Belle Dame Sans Merci" seems, on the surface, to be just another Romantic poem about knights who fall in love with beautiful (in this case, fairy or elfish) ladies. But wait: in this poem, the guy in question is literally on the verge of death because of his romantic encounter with this woman. What's the deal with that? She didn't stab him or anything – the poem isn't explicit about why the knight is dying. It's left partly to our imagination.
So what kills the knight? He becomes so enraptured with this pretty fairy lady that he forgets everything else. Her kisses put him into a coma, and that's how the speaker of the poem finds him. Ultimately, this poem is about the dangers of obsession, in general: drug addiction, romantic or erotic obsession, you name it. Keats seems to suggest that the fate of his "knight at arms" could happen to any of us, at any time. So whenever you're tempted to neglect your responsibilities in order to feed an obsession, you should think about what happened to the "knight at arms" in Keats's poem.

Strawberry Cheesecake Coffee Cake (Treats For Co-Irkers)
Strawberry Cheesecake Coffee Cake
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 cup brown sugar Splenda (or 1/2 cup brown sugar)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup cold butter cut into 1/2" cubes
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup fat free sour cream
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla, divided
1/2 tsp almond extract
8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup Splenda (or 1/2 cup granulated sugar)
1/2 cup strawberry jam (I used my strawberry freezer jam)
1/2 cup slivered almonds, coarsely chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 10" springform pan with cooking spray.
In bowl of food processor fitted with metal blade, place the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar and cinnamon. Pulse to combine. Add cold butter pieces and pulse 8-10 times or until mixture resembles small peas. Remove 1 cup of this mixture to a small bowl and add the chopped slivered almonds. Stir to combine and set aside,
Add the baking powder, baking soda and salt to the food processor and pulse twice to combine with flour mixture.
In another small bowl whisk together one of the eggs, the sour cream, 1/2 tsp of the vanilla and the almond extract. Add mixture to food processor and pulse until mixture comes together into a sticky dough-type batter.
Dump batter into prepared springform pan and spread around evenly on the bottom and about halfway up the sides of the pan.
In mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Scrape down the beaters and the bowl and add the Splenda (or sugar) and beat well. Scrape down beaters and bowl again. Add the remaining egg and the other 1/2 tsp of vanilla and beat well to combine.
Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over batter in pan. Dollop jam on top of cream cheese layer and distribute evenly across cream cheese. Sprinkle with reserved flour mixture and almonds.
Place pan in oven and bake for 45-55 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 15-20 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the pan before removing the springform pan from the coffee cake.
Drizzle cake with powdered sugar mixed with a little bit of water if desired.

Three of our favorites - strawberries, cheesecake and coffee cake - well, it was like a small slice (okay, okay, a BIG slice) of heaven.
As always thank you our conscientious, culinary queen.

You don't want to enjoy the course after it's under snow?? That's the best time of year to play. Course to yourself, throw as many as you want, no waiting, and if you lose a disc, no one else is going to playing out there, so you have plenty of time to find it.

Arrests included the capture of a fugitive from Mississippi who was wanted since 2011 for armed robbery, the arrest of a violent offender wanted since 2012 for battering a pregnant woman and a prolific offender wanted for vehicle theft and fraud, according to reports.
Other suspects were wanted for drug trafficking, aggravated battery and DUI, as well as numerous probation violations.
The public can search an arrest warrant database on the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office website to determine if someone they know is currently wanted.
Visit www.SarasotaSheriff.org and under the "Corrections" tab click "Warrant Search."
Should the search results show an active warrant there is a link to submit information anonymously to Crime Stoppers of Sarasota County.
