Meadowview Farm LbNA # 44498 (ARCHIVED)
|Placed Date
|Aug 1 2008
|Richmond, VA
|Found By
|Hike Distance
The Armour House and Gardens at Meadowview Farm is located near I-295 and Creighton Road. From I-295 head west on Creighton for two miles, turn right onto Cedar Fork then turn right on Clarendon Rd. Drive into the park, pass the house on the right, take a left and then right to the Armour House.
The Gavel Letterbox John Marshalls farm was once located on this property. Marshall was the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court from 1801 to 1835. He is credited with making the judicary (the courts) an independent and influential branch of government.
From Armour House
Start at the back door and walk down the original driveway. Its now a walkway lined by trees.
At the end of the path, you will see two paths that are across the street. You want the path on the left.
Cross the street and go down that path.
Continue past paved path on the left.
You will pass the school playground on the right.
Once you pass the grove of trees on the left you will see the Ceder Hill house across the road.
Head down the hill to the parking lot by the house.
Head to the lamppost on the right side of the parking lot.
Walk up the hill toward two Virginia Pines. The letterbox is behind the second pine.
The Arrowhead Letterbox The Arrowhead letterbox was made to recognize the Indians that once lived in the area and also for the summer camp that was also located on this property.
After replacing the gavel letterbox, head back up the hill to the trail that you were on.
Remember that paved path that you passed earlier? Take that path.
Cross the street and continue on path.
At the next intersection go straight until you come to an open field with a shelter and playground.
Cross field through the shelter to the opposite side of the field to a pile of rocks around a gully.
Take a right and take 12 steps along the tree line.
To the left you will see a fallen tree.
Under this tree near the stump you will find your next letterbox.
Azalea letterbox The property has several azaleas that were planted by the original owner. While you cant take one of those home, you can take one that was made for you to find.
Return to the trail and take a right at the next intersection.
At the fork take a right. You will soon see the Armour House on top of the hill.
When the trail makes a sharp turn left towards the house, look for a small grassy area on the right.
On the left of this grassy area are a few logs; under the light colored log is your final letterbox.
Congratulations. You have finished this series.

Reasons why noone has answered my inquiry:
A) Everyone knows about this issue except me, and we can't be bothered
B) Noone in the world has ever encountered this problem. I'm a rocket
C) My Enlish is so bad that noone understands what I wrote.
Still hoping for some explanation. BEA folks: Would this matter concern
an Open Source product, I would have gotten a reply ages ago (sigh)....

Rock Creek, Mammoth Lakes Adventures
We recently disconnected from the world (and our technology) and disappeared up to Rock Creek up in the Mammoth Lakes area at the foothills of the Sierras. About a 5 hour drive from Los Angeles, 4 humans and 2 dogs went to go play in the woods! It dumped snow the first night we got in, but luckily it started after we were tucked away in our cabin - and the NOTpuppy, Bucky was lucky to catch his first taste of snow (which he LOVED jumping chest deep into) and the last snow of the season. The highlight was definitely good times with good friends and a chance to watch the dogs run free - frolicking through the streams and meadows till they just couldn't handle anymore… which resulted in coming home and sleeping for a few days! Along the way we also found some amazing jerky, delicious pie, and had a near catastrophe with some flying carrion. Take a peek at the adventures (and a taste for what the NOTFZJ80 will hopefully lead to!) on the next page!

BALTIMORE � For the second day in a row, John Farrell wrote out a lineup in Baltimore that had Grady Sizemore rather than Jackie Bradley Jr. playing center field.
After a three-strikeout game at Detroit on Sunday night, Bradley is hitting .203 with a .286 on-base percentage and .294 slugging percentage. He�s swinging and missing more than he can even comprehend. The mechanics of his swing have been the focus of extra work before the last two games.
�This is a couple of days for him to catch his breath a little bit,� Farrell said. �We felt like he needed a couple of days to regroup.�
But that doesn�t mean that Bradley is on the verge of losing his job.
�We feel he�s the right guy to be our center fielder,� general manager Ben Cherington said.
Still, that Bradley has looked overmatched against major-league pitching has contributed to the overall malaise of the offense. That Sizemore is hitting .218 with a .286 on-base percentage and .328 slugging percentage naturally raises a question: Did Boston do enough to fortify the center-field position after Jacoby Ellsbury left?
�We felt that we did have enough depth,� Cherington said. �To this point , we haven�t gotten the production out of the outfield that we need to. We still feel like we can, and it�s up to us to figure that out.�

Family, friends and classmates turned out Thursday night to remember a teenager who died after a track tryout.
The vigil was held at Bailey Apac Middle School in Jackson for Darius Willington.
Willington collapsed Tuesday night at the school and later died at a hospital.

Skill Level Intermediate
Okay, so after the first few chapters in this course, we know a lot more about how type works. Let's start applying that knowledge to a real project. I have here this flyer. It's called Hansel_Flyer_Final, and it's simply a legal-size flyer right here, and we're going to create this. We're going to start adding some text to a document in order to get to this final result. I want you to see what it looks like now so that as we start to go through the process, we have a better idea about what we're going to end up with. More importantly, I've kind of gone through the step of actually sketching this out on paper beforehand, so I have an idea of where I want to use Point Text and where I want to use Area Text, just to make things a little bit easier for me as I work.
Of course, at any time we can always copy and paste text from a Point Text object to an Area Type object. But if I know in advance how I'm going to be working with my document, I can make those decisions earlier on in the process. So now that we know what we're going to end up with, let's kind of start from scratch and see how we go from there. I'm going to create a brand-new document in Illustrator. Command+N or Ctrl+N to create this new document. Now this is going to actually be a print-based document. I'm going to use Print here just as a basic profile. But we'll see we're going to change some of these settings here as well.
For example, I know this is going to be a legal-size sheet of paper, and that's because I really want it to be like just a regular letter-size flyer actually, but I want there to be a section in the bottom that people can tear off and use maybe as an order form. I prefer to work in inches, so I'm going to switch my Units here to Inches, but again, you're free to use whatever you like. And I'm also going to specify a bleed in my document. Now because I want to have a background color throughout the entire document here and I actually want this image to kind of print all the way to the edge my paper, I'm going to want to make sure that I have a bleed.
I'm going to specify here .125 or an eighth of an inch and hit the Tab key, and since this icon over here is turned on, I'm now going to have this exact same Bleed set for the top, bottom, left, and right sides of my artboard. Don't worry about any of the information here in Advanced. Because we chose a print profile, everything we need is there for us automatically. And I'm simply going to click OK to create this document. Great! Now like I said before, we really want this to be mainly just like a letter-size sheet, which is the top half or 8.5x11, but I want to have the bottom here part be some kind of a tear-off that people can use as an order form.
Now I could start to work with guides here. I'm going to press Ctrl+R or Command+R to turn on my rulers inside of Illustrator so I can see the different measurements here. But rather than struggle with trying to get my guides to snap exactly to a certain point on the ruler, I prefer to set up my guides by drawing regular objects and then converting them to guides later. Let me show you what I mean by that. I'm just going to use my regular Line tool here. I just want to create a line here inside of my document. Now I'm going to go to my Transform panel. I'm going to click on the word Transform over here to temporally open up my Transform panel.
But of course, if you have your Transform panel open otherwise, for example, I can go over here and open up my Transform panel, or you can always find all panels here inside the Window menu by choosing Transform. But I'm going to choose over here where it says Transform. I have the upper left-hand corner here. What I really care about is the Y coordinate. I'm actually going to set that to 0 and then hit the Tab key, and that's going to snap right to the top of the document. I'm going to switch here to my regular Selection tool here. I'm going to Option+Drag or Alt+Drag this down all the way to the bottom while holding down the Shift key.
And you could see that because my Smart Guides is turned on right now, you can see how it says the word intersect snaps to the bottom part of my artboard. Now again, as I was dragging, I was holding down the Option and Shift keys, which made a copy of that and dragged it straight down. So now I have one line over here and one line over here. So now let me come back up to this top line over here. I'm going to select it, and once again click and start to drag while holding down the Option and the Shift keys. And again, on Windows that would be the Alt and the Shift keys. That again allows me to make a copy.
You can see my Double Arrow, and it also allows you me to constrain it straight down. I'm just going to create one copy here, and then I'm going to press Command+D or Ctrl+D so now I have a second one that I've created and then one more, one more time, Ctrl+D or Command+D to create a copy. So if you look at it right now, I have created five different lines inside of my document and I have one, two, three, four kind of empty areas that you might see between all of those. So now if I press Command+A or Ctrl+A to select all these, I can now use the Align tools inside of Illustrator to distribute those evenly.
So, for example, I can click on this icon right here called the Vertical Distribute Center and now they're all evenly distributed along my page. With all these selected, I can now press Command+5 or Ctrl+5 to turn these into a guide. And just to show you where you'd also find that, you go to the View menu, you can choose Guides, and then you could choose over here Make Guides. See the keyboard shortcut here is Command+5 or Ctrl+5 .In doing so, I now have guides set up in the exact positions that I need them to, without worrying about kind of dragging them out of the rulers and trying to get them to go to the right spot.
The reason why this is such an important feature and such a great way of working is because many times when you're creating these brochures that fold, or you need to have different segments or panels in some kind of layout that you're doing, they may not always be set to the same size. For example, if this were meant to be folded as some kind of brochure, I may have some of the panels be shorter than others so they fold i ncorrectly. You have something called a short- fold brochure or maybe a third page is a little bit shorter than some of the other pages so that there is room for it to fold in.
By just using my regular drawing tools and my powerful Transform panel inside of Illustrator, I could position regular artwork here. I was just working with regular paths. But then when I'm done, simply convert them into guides and now they are in the exact location where I need them to be. Okay, so we have our guides set up. Now let's bring some text into this document. You don't need the Transform panel here, so I'm just going to go ahead and close that. And I'm going to switch over to Microsoft Word. Now I'm using Word on my computer right now, but you can actually work with any text editor whatsoever.
I'm simply going to choose File > Open over here. I'm going to go to the Chapter 03 folder inside of the exercise files, and I have here a file called Flyer_Text.doc. That's the native Microsoft Word file. But again, if you have any other text editor, be it a word processor or even Notepad or TextEdit inside of your basic operating system, you can go ahead and work with the .txt file, which would work just about anywhere. I'm going to open that up, and now I'll see the text that my client has provided for me for this particular flyer.
So I have here what their headline is going to be, what the body copy is going to be, and I'm going to start to bring this text now into Illustrator. One thing that I've learned having worked in this industry for a very, very long time is that anytime that I need to retype some text, it just means there is that much more chance for me to introduce my own errors and typos into my document. So I want to avoid that if at all possible. So I'm going to start here by working with the headline. I'm going to click and drag to just select this headline that's right here, but I'll tell you that many times I find that people struggle with clicking and dragging to select things.
So I'll show you a little shortcut here. If you double-click on a word inside of just about any text editor, especially Microsoft Word, the entire word becomes highlighted. If you triple-click, however, you'll see that the entire line or even paragraph becomes selected. And it's just so much easier to know that you've gotten that entire sentence or that entire paragraph in your selection simply by triple-clicking on it. Sometimes you may find that triple- click selects just one line and a quadruple-click selects entire paragraph. But inside of Microsoft Word, a triple- click will always select a paragraph, just making it easier to select that text.
So now with this text selected, I'm going to hit Command+C or Ctrl+C to copy this. I'll switch over to Illustrator, and I'll use my Type tool to click once over here and get an insertion point. Now I'm going to press Command+V or Ctrl+V to paste and now that text has come in here. Now remember, because I'm using Copy and Paste here, the formatting is completely stripped out of the file. So the text comes in using the native default settings for text here inside of Illustrator. So notice over here my text is set to Myriad Pro, Regular, at 12 point.
That's totally fine because we're going to go ahead and work with this text anyway. But the first thing I want you to do is put to headline here as Point Text. And I'll take a moment here to tell you that when I'm working inside of Illustrator and I have some kind of a headline where I know I'm going to start tweaking and working with the text and get it to look just right, nine times out of ten I'm going to be using Point Text for this. It's just going to be easier for me to work with. Now let's go back over here to Microsoft Word and I now want to select the body copy, so I'm going to triple-click again anywhere inside a paragraph. That's now going to select the entire paragraph, and I'll press Command+C or Ctrl+C to copy.
Let's switch back now into Illustrator. And in this case here, I don't want to have my body copy set as Point Text because I want it to wrap or flow easily as to decide how it's going to fall within the exact document. So I have my Type tool selected, but I also have an insertion point right now inside of this text, which means that right now, Illustrator has this text object in focus. I'm almost like inside of this text object right now. So I have no way to get out of it, unless I switch tools.
Well, here's a shortcut that can be very important when working with text. Remember that just about anywhere inside of Illustrator, I can always hold down the Command key and Illustrator will give me the last-used Selection tool. Again, if you're on Windows, that would be the Ctrl key. So now I have my Type tool selected, I'm currently inside of a text object, but I want to create a new text object. So I'm going to press Command, click on the screen somewhere to now deselect that object. Now I'm going to release the Command key. Now I'm back to a new Type tool.
Now I want to create an Area Type object, so remember, the way to do that is to click and drag to create a frame, and then I'll release the mouse. Now I have a blinking cursor inside of that frame. And now if I press Command+V and Ctrl+V to go ahead and paste that text, I've pasted that text as Area Text inside of that frame. So at this point, we've gotten our headline and we've gotten our body copy here inside of Illustrator. Let's go ahead and bring the remaining text here into our document. I'm going to go back into Microsoft Word. I'm going to triple-click over here on the tagline, copy, come back to Illustrator.
Again, I want this tagline to actually be Point Text. It's going to be easier for me to work with it in this case. I'm going to press Command. Again, this gives me my Selection tool. Click on a blank area of the screen to deselect that text object. Now let go the Command key, click once to create a Point Text object, and then press Command+V to paste that text here. Let's go back to Microsoft Word. Here I can go ahead and I can triple- click on this, but I only get now the first paragraph, but I want this other information to also be included in my selection.
Here is another great tip. Instead of worrying about trying to scroll or to make sure that everything is selected by clicking and dragging, I'm simply going to go ahead now and kind of scroll down over here, hold down the Shift key on my keyboard, and click anywhere after the last word that I want to be included in that selection. Notice now that all that became selected. I'm going to press Command+C to copy that text. Let's jump back into Illustrator, Command, click on the artboard, release, go ahead now and maybe click and drag to get a frame somewhere over here at the bottom right-hand part of the order form area.
I'm going to choose Command+ V to paste the text in there. Now let's go back to Word, go ahead now and take "Perfect for" and then these four different bullet points. Copy that. Let's switch back to Illustrator. I'm going to Command+Click to deselect that text object, let go of my Command key, click here on the artboard. Now I get a Point Text object. Choose Command+V. And now I have that Point Text object here inside of my document. Great! We now have all the text that we need to work with here inside of this document.
Now again, I could've placed all the text at once and then copied and pasted inside of Illustrator, and you may choose to do that. But this is one way where if I already know in my head where things are basically going to go onto the page and whether certain things are going to be Point Text objects or Area Text objects, this is a way for me to get there.

Your interest in all different topics around me, tennis and sports in general is fascinating. Thank you for all the time so many of you have invested in writing me messages, letters and cards and making me special gifts. This means a great deal to me and it fills me with pride to have so many of you thinking of me.
Our community is steadily growing towards the barrier of 200'000, what an amazing number. So many individuals from all over the world with a common interest meeting in one spot - precisely like here in Beijing for the Olympics! I would like to say thank you one more time and hope you enjoy the Games, wherever you are.
I love you !

Last Lap Pass Keeps Sharpsteen Perfect on Concrete
Billy Coyle started the Street Stock feature from the pole position. Coyle lead the first lap, but surrendered it to Charlie Sharpsteen on lap 2. Gil Sharpsteen made his way to second from his fourth place start on the second lap and began his challenge on his brother. The first of nine cautions fell on lap 4 when Brad Knapp spun on the backstretch. The re-start Gil Sharpsteen take the lead from Charlie, but it would not last. Cricket Clonch got into the back of Coyle in turn three sending the pair spinning on lap 5. Gil Sharpsteen held the lead on the re-start, but everyone knew payback would happen and it did as Coyle dumped Clonch in nearly the same spot of the track. Both drivers were sternly warned that "the war was over" via their one way radios. Caution flew again one lap later as Chris Zacharias spun in turn one. Gil Sharpsteen went to pit road to check for a flat tire, but the tire was ok, and he returned to the event handing the lead over to Charlie. Charlie held off the strong challenges from younger brother, Lee by protecting the bottom line around the track. Lee was able to move under Charlie coming off turn two on the final lap and pulled off the pass for the win in turn three to keep his unbeaten streak alive at seven wins for the season. Charlie Sharpsteen finished a close second. Cricket Clonch rebounded from the early spins to finish third. Gil Sharpsteen finished fourth and Matt Visingard brought the Richie Evans Tribute car across the finish line in fifth, the best ever finish for that car.
T-J Zacharias led the field of Sportsman to the green flag in their 25 lap feature. T-J led the first three laps, but lost the top spot to Tony Hanbury. Hanbury's lead was short lived, however as Jimmy Zacharias moved around Hanbury on lap five. Once out front, Jimmy Zacharias drove a smooth consistent line and pulled away for his fourth win in a row, and fifth win of the season as his eye is focused on repeating as champion. Tony Hanbury held off his team mate, Bryan Sherwood for second. Veteran, Tom Shiner had a fierce battle with John Wilber, but held on to finish fourth with Wilber completing the top five. Part time ARCA driver, Barry Fitzgerald, made his debut at Shangri-La II. The Sykesville, Maryland driver was making his second outing in a Sportsman and drove a great race finishing sixth.
The ASA Latemodels capped off the racing evening with Scott Nurmi capturing an emotional win. Emotionswere high for Nurmi as he was joined in victory lane by his son, Ryan who sustained multiple fractures of his spine while snowmobiling this past February and has been going through extensive physical therapy. The win was no easy accomplishment, however as his mirror was filled with the front bumper of 2009 ASA Latemodel champion, Jim Lamoreaux. Try as he may, Lamoreaux could not pull far enough alongside Nurmi to force a pass. Matt Barndt, making his second start at "The Concrete Castle" this season, had his hands full with a hard charging Joseph Burns. Barndt finished third, Burns was fourth and Joe Brown completed the top five.
Concrete Hot Laps: Shangri-La II Motorspeedway Public Relations Director and track co-announcer Al Robinson made his first trip to the facility since suffering a debilitating stroke in early May. He is achieving his own lofty goals by working hard in therapy. Perhaps the best medicine for him so far was taking to the microphone and calling a Street Stock heat. Thanks to The Race Report's Ron Hills for providing the transportation for Al.
French's Auto Parts sponsored the Kids Club this past week. There will be no kids club this week due to family commitments for the program coordinators prohibiting their being at the track.
Jim Lamoreaux was thanking the racing gods following motor problems at Oswego. Lamoreaux experienced a loss of power in the final Late Model practice. The crew went to work and found a broken valve spring and bent valve. His racing luck was there was no internal damage to the motor.
During his victory lane interview, Jimmy Zacharias was informed that there were broken rear end components. His crew was able to move the rear tire forward and back by hand. Zacharias denied he felt any difference in the cars handling during the race.
Racing will continue at the "Concrete Castle" this Saturday night as the Circle Track AMSOIL Great American Tour makes a stop at the high banked concrete half mile. Circle Track magazine Senior Tech Editor, Bob Bolles and his wife Karen will be researching racing at the track by speaking with drivers, officials and fans as they generate ideas for upcoming issues of the magazine. The track's premier division, the ASA Latemodels will be joined by the Sportsman and Street Stocks. Racing gets underway at 7:00 pm.

There are various problems related to the permanent account number (PAN), which cause concern among many people. In the past few weeks, the submission of PAN and its various details have occupied the minds of investors. Many individuals face the problem of possessing more than one PAN under a single name. While this may be due to several reasons, it is high time that individuals tackle this issue once and for all.
At regular intervals, disclosures are made about the number of people who have duplicate PAN. These people should ensure that they return their additional PAN to avoid problems. Recently, a deadline was issued to individuals to surrender their multiple PAN, if any. Individuals need to follow a particular process to comply with this requirement.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A company backed by investors linked to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is pressing regulators to speed up a review of its proposed $2 billion solar-energy complex, warning that delays would send a "chilling signal" to the emerging green power industry.
But the California Energy Commission staff opposes the move, depicting it as an end run that could break apart a precedent-setting review of the planned solar site near the Mojave Desert Preserve.
At the center of the dispute is a project widely viewed as a potential breakthrough in large-scale U.S. solar development.
BrightSource Energy is seeking permission to build three solar-power plants on nearly 6 square miles of federal land along the Nevada state line — the first ever on Bureau of Land Management property.
The BrightSource project is one of dozens seeking to claim more than 1,000 square miles of federal land in California for solar-power generation, an area larger than the Hawaiian island of Maui. With the potential to be the first large-scale solar plant on BLM property, the complex review is being closely watched since it will set the stage for others that follow.
In documents filed with the state, BrightSource says it should have received approval this month but a decision might not come until early 2010. On that schedule, which would delay the start of construction, the company could not meet contracts to begin delivering power to the state's largest utility, PG&E Corp., in mid-2011.
BrightSource is "tremendously concerned" about the prospect of delays and warns that a sluggish pace in reaching a decision could send "a chilling signal to large-scale solar developers and their investors," according to documents filed by company subsidiaries with the state.
Could California's green energy revolution lose power?
The company says the commission — whose five members are appointed by the governor — needs to "send the right signal ... that California welcomes and supports" solar investment.
A hearing is scheduled for Monday. The company wants a schedule that would produce a decision by next summer.
The Associated Press reported earlier this month that a Schwarzenegger relative, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and his former environmental secretary, Terry Tamminen, are part of a private investment group that could score a lucrative payoff if regulators approve the BrightSource complex.
Both are senior advisers for VantagePoint Venture Partners, which has a multimillion-dollar stake in BrightSource. The personal connections have raised questions about possible favorable treatment for a project; the company has called the joint state-federal review transparent.
The governor's office says he is not involved with the proposal or its investors. Yet it's clear Schwarzenegger sees his support for the solar industry as a plank in his nascent legacy.
"My vision is that when I fly up and down the state of California that I see everything blanketed, every available space blanketed, with solar — if it's parking lots, if it's on top of buildings, on top of prisons, universities, government buildings, hospitals," the governor said Thursday in Bakersfield, where he attended the opening of a small pilot solar plant run by Ausra Inc.
"Solar, solar, solar, that is my goal," he said.
The sprawling BrightSource complex would collect sunlight reflected from more than 200,000 mirrors, each covering about 76 square feet. The sun's power is used to heat water and make steam that drives turbines, creating electricity.
The commission is conducting its review with BLM, which must agree to lease its land. The review has generated thousands of pages of documents and studies, dealing with issues from possible erosion to the impact on the protected desert tortoise.
Some solar developers have purchased or leased private land to sidestep a review by two agencies unfamiliar with working together.
"We feel that the best way to meet our customers' needs in a timely, reliable manner is to initially build on private land," said Rob Morgan, executive vice president for Ausra, which is building a large plant in San Luis Obispo County. "We can address permitting and environmental impact issues more swiftly and cost-effectively on private land."

It costs less to heat with Propane than electricity. Propane furnaces have a longer life span than electric heat pumps.
Unlike fuel oil, Propane is non-toxic and does not threaten the water table. It is exempt from EPA regulations for storage above and below ground.
Propane is clean burning. Both fuel oil and electricity produce more greenhouse gases and pollutants than propane. Most of the propane consumed in the U.S. is obtained from North American sources. This is not true of competitive fuels. Heating with propane actually helps promote U.S. energy independence.
Propane can be used to operate cooking appliances and clothes dryers. Fuel oil cannot.

THIBODAUX The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi baseball team pounded out 14 hits Saturday evening but it wasn't enough as Nicholls handed the Islanders a 6-3 loss in the series finale.
The Islanders drop to 4-15 on the season with the loss and are searching for their first Southland Conference win of the season as they dropped to 0-6. The Colonels moved to 9-7 on the season and are 4-2 in the SLC.
After leaving four runners on base in the first two innings, A&M-Corpus Christi jumped out to a 1-0 lead with a run in the top of the third. Stephen Flora reached on a double with one out. After Martin Parra walked, Flora went to third on a single by Jeramie Marek and scored as the ball was misplayed by Chris Murrill.
The Islanders were unable to add any more runs with the bases loaded when the inning ended. They stranded 14 runners in the game including seven in scoring position.
The Colonels answered with three runs in the bottom of the inning off Islander starter Brandon Orr to take a 3-1 lead. Kevin Schlegel and Murrill each singled. With one away, Keith Kulbeth tripled and scored on a throwing error by Ernie Olivarez.
"We did a lot of good things tonight that we hadn't been doing," said Islander head coach Scott Malone. "Brandon Orr gave us a solid start and really competed. He got stronger as the game went on and that says a lot about the type of competitor he is and that is the type of competitor we want on the mound for us.
"We did a better job of hitting the ball, but when it came down to need the big hit with two outs, Nicholls got the job done. I really believe hitting is contagious and we just needed some things to go our way and have some success. Hopefully, things can go our way on Tuesday and Wednesday against a Big 12 team."
The Islanders tied the game at three with a pair of runs in the top of the fifth. Flora, who led the Islanders with three hits, led off the inning with a home run off starter Tyler Minto. With one away, Marek reached on a Nicholls error and went to third on a single by pinch hitter Justin Greiner that chased Minto, who had seven strikeouts in 4-1/3 innings, from the game. Trey Hernandez greeted Drew Erving with a RBI single.
Once again, the Colonels promptly answered breaking the 3-3 tie with a pair of runs in the bottom of the fifth. With two away in the inning, Murrill doubled and scored on a single by Kulbeth. Scott Moseley drove in Kulbeth with a double to left-center field.
Blake Bergeron tripled off Orr in the bottom of the eighth to drive in Adam Miley for the final run of the game.
Orr suffered the loss for the Islanders tossing a season-high 7-2/3 innings. He allowed six runs on eight hits with four strikeouts and a pair of walks. Jake Liedka recorded the final out of the eighth inning.
Ross Larson earned the win for Nicholls tossing 3-2/3 innings of scoreless relief. He scattered three hits with a strikeout.
Led by Flora's three hits, five Islanders had multiple hits. Jacob Perales, Jeremy Narvaez, Ernie Olivarez and Hernandez each had a pair of hits. Islander hitters struckout eight times in the game including strikeouts to end the inning with runners on base on three occasions.
Nicholls finished the day with eight hits. The No. 1 and No. 2 hitters Murrill and Kulbeth combined for five of the hits.
The Islanders step out of league action with a pair of midweek games with Texas Tech. The teams will play single games on Tuesday and Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. at Whataburger Field.

U.S. News & World Report today released its annual Best Hospitals rankings. This year's Best Hospitals, the 23rd annual edition, showcases more than 720 of the nation's roughly 5,000 hospitals. Fewer than 150 are nationally ranked in at least one of 16 medical specialties. The rest of the recognized hospitals met a standard of performance nearly as demanding in one or more specialties.
"Des Peres Hospital is pleased to be among the top 10 hospitals in Missouri. We are also proud to be recognized for our high performance in orthopedics," said John Grah, chief executive officer. "These rankings reflect the commitment our clinical staff and support teams have made to delivering quality, personal care to each of our patients."
The hospital rankings, said U.S. News Health Rankings Editor Avery Comarow, are like a GPS-type aid to help steer patients to hospitals with strong skills in the procedures and medical conditions that present the biggest challenges. "All of these hospitals are the kinds of medical centers that should be on your list when you need the best care," said Comarow. "They are where other hospitals send the toughest cases."
The rankings were published by U.S. News in collaboration with RTI International, a research organization based in Research Triangle Park, N.C. Highlights of the 2012-13 rankings will appear in the U.S. News Best Hospitals 2013 guidebook, to go on sale in August.
The complete rankings and methodology are available at http://health.usnews.com/best-hospitals.

How long will regent love for the Legislature, UT last?
The University of Texas Board of Regents backed down a bit on Thursday from their scuffle with legislators by agreeing to turn in information requested by senators.
But if history is any indicator, the harmony will likely not last.
The Dallas Morning News' Holly Hacker reported in 2011 that UT alumni and business supporters rose up to defend UT Austin President Bill Powers and UT System Chancellor Francisco Cigarroa, who some believed were at risk of losing their jobs.
Rumor has it that they were also being micromanaged. Sound familiar?
In the past few months, tensions have been high between the Legislature and the regents who many believe are taking a little bit too close of an interest in Powers (requesting he not delete any of his emails, for example).
In 2011, Holly reported that the issue was the lack of enforcement of ideas like $10,000 degrees and calculating each professor's "cost per student" based on salaries and number of students taught, ideas backed by Gov. Rick Perry, and educator and oilman Jeff Sandefer.
This time around it has to do with Powers' reluctance to keep tuition rates low, a Perry push that doesn't factor in student population growth or waning support from state coffers.
The outcome of the 2011 drama: Regents eventually threw their support behind Cigarroa.
"Today we have the opportunity to begin the path of healing and begin earning back the trust of our constituency. Because of that, this is one of the most important votes in the two years that I have served on the board," said Regents Vice Chairman Steve Hicks.
Anyone who remembers the Kumbaya moment might be having déjà vu when Regent Chairman Gene Powell said Thursday that the board and the Legislature are friends.
"I consider most of them friends, and they long-term add to our quality by challenging us," Powell said. "I'm an athlete, I was always challenged, challenged every day, so I don't find challenges and people challenging me to be a bad thing. It makes you better."
But just a few days after the regents patched up their troubles in 2011, they sent huge information requests to the nine universities in the system causing micromanagement allegations to flare up.
Sen. Judith Zaffirini, D-Laredo, said "time will tell" whether the détente will last.

I have bought several of these and other 8 and 10 inch pneumatic wheels in the past from HF and probably 20% of them were leakers. The problem is the really lousy rubber the inner tubes are made of. I just inject some sealer into the wheel and that usually fixes it. The price is so good that it makes it worthwhile (almost) having to fool with fixing the leaks. When you buy them be sure to check they are full of air....some of them don't even make it on to the shelves with air in them!!

I am so pleased with my purchase! not only was ordering them from harbor freight easy but the customer service rep was very professional and courteous. what a pleasure. now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as far as the price of my product???? can't beat it anywhere. I went to 4 local hardware/bldg. supply stores and it was ridiculous. either they had no tires or 1 in stock and the price for one was, again, ridiculous. they sell wheel barrows, dolly's, generators and lawnmowers that the tires go on and didn't have any in stock. what I am going to do with 1 tire? really!!??I ordered 4 from the warehouse and couldn't be more satisfied. I went to a store location and got the other 2 I wanted(the ones with the gold rims). I purchased 6 tires for the price of 1 offered at another store. the delivery tracking was easy to follow and the order arrived right on time. this isn't my first purchase from harbor freight and it certainly won't be my last. there is such a wide variety of items and the prices are always the best. I highly recommend harbor freight. thanks harbor freight!!

Great price but difference between two of the same item
By Winnie
from Livingston Montana
Great value for a good item. Problem was the difference in diameter of the two wheels. There was a difference of 1/2" in the diameter between the two wheels of the same stamped size. This condition made the wheels worthless for my cart project. So when I considered the price of the wheels and freight and return freight to the vendor and then freight charges for the replacements the decision was easy to just throw the wheels away or find someone to buy them and shop for new wheels. But I have say they are a great deal if you do not need the same dimensions.
Most orders will be processed and leave our warehouses within 1-2 business days from the time your order is placed. Orders placed on Saturday or Sunday will be processed on Monday.

Soldiers wear a wide assortment of insignia, ribbons, medals,badges, tabs and patches. To the uninitiated, the variety can be bewildering. Yet, each device represents a Soldier's accomplishment—or that of his or her unit— and is a great source of pride and accomplishment.
And while each and every device is important, because of uniform guidelines, some many not be as visible as others.
Today we have a guest blog post from MAJ Larry Linville, discussing the guideline and his recommendation for updating the regulation.
For wear of combat and special skills badges, I recommend regrouping the combat and special skills badges in groups one and two. Currently group one badges include the Combat Infantryman badges (CIB), Combat Action badges (CAB), and the Expert Infantryman badge (EIB). Group two includes the Combat Medical badges (CMB) and the Expert Field Medical badge (EFMB).
A service member may wear only one badge each from groups 1 and 2. The separation of the expert badges into different groups does not allow for some service members (SM) to wear their awards on the uniform. The latest inclusion of the CAB into group one establishes an unfair wear policy for the combat and skill badges. For instance a SM may wear the CIB and the EMFB or he may wear the CAB and the EFMB but he cannot wear the CAB and EIB. The SM with a CAB and EIB must exclude one or the other when selecting which badge to wear. For this reason, the current regulation covering the wear of the combat and skill badges is unfair and needs to be addressed.
I recommend regrouping the combat and special skills badges into respective like groups. Group one will include the three combat badges (CIB, CAB, and CMB) and group two will include the two expert badges (EIB and EFMB). The order of precedence for group one will be CIB, CAB, and CMB. Additionally, in group one a SM may wear one, two, or all three combat badges from group one. The order of precedence for group two will be the EIB then the EFMB. Additionally, a SM may wear one or both badges from group two. The combat badges will take precedence over skill badges i.e. the CIB and the EIB cannot be worn at the same time.
This is not a change from current regulation. The current location and limits to the number of badges worn on the uniform would not change from current regulation. Finally, no changes are needed for groups three, four, or five.
By regrouping one and two in this fashion all personnel may display their combat and expert badges in combinations under a policy that is inclusionary versus exclusionary and retains an order of precedence for wear. Referring to the previous example under this regrouping a SM may now wear the CAB and the EIB.

Quality of Life bond opponent says City's wording of proposition makes it a slush fund
(Nov. 2012 story)
Ron McGinnis is a local real estate developer and he has a real problem with the wording of the bond election ordinance which uses the word "discretion."
It's a word he thinks gives the City free reign on how to use the nearly half billion dollars in funding if the bond propositions pass Nov. 6.
"I'm saying it's all discretionary, it's all a slush fund, that's what it is," McGinnis said.
He said the wording of the bond election ordinance gives the City too much flexibility with projects like building new pools and soccer fields for kids and calls it a slush fund for City officials to use the excess on whatever they want.
"If we vote for these two propositions and give them control over this half a billion and the ability to raise taxes, we as citizens will have absolutely no ability to change their mind," McGinnis said. "They'll do whatever they want to do."
The clause in the bond election ordinance he's talking about states, "the city council may, in its discretion, use any excess funds for acquiring, constructing, equipping, and renovating other park, recreation, zoo and open space improvements, etc."
"All of the funds in the bonds are discretionary and they can use it so long as its within the general description of the two concepts, prop one and two," McGinnis said. "They can use it wherever they want to and however they choose."
The City of el Paso's chief financial officer, Carmen Arrieta-Candelaria said she "would not qualify this as a slush fund."
"There's a lot of internal checks and balances that would minimize the risk of that happening," Arrieta-Candelaria said.
That includes a bond oversight committee and attorney general approval.
And although the bond projects do not have specific amounts, as McGinnis pointed out they did in the 2004 quality of life bond, she said it in no way resembles a slush fund.
"I can assure the public the bond proceeds will be used for the projects listed in the propositions and any excess funds are required to go back to debt or can be reprogrammed for another capital project, but depending on the size of that project, that project would go back to city council for approval," Arrieta-Canderlaria said.

Officials at a central New York college say they're looking into a police chief's claims that hundreds of rowdy students "took over" the village during off-campus parties that spilled onto neighboring properties.
The Observer-Dispatch of Utica reports Town of Kirkland Police Chief Dan English told a town board meeting Monday night that about 300 Hamilton College students became unruly while partying Saturday night at several homes in the village of Clinton.
English says the students "took over the village" while roaming the streets and spilling onto the lawns of neighboring homes. He says two town officers and a state trooper brought the situation under control.
English says charges are pending. College officials say they're also looking into the incident.
Hamilton, near Utica, is a private liberal arts college with about 1,800 students.

About Station Hotel
Footscray's Station Hotel brings culinary excellence to the city's inner west, while retaining the pub's well-known relaxed and informal atmosphere. Under the accomplished hand of chef and co-owner, Sean Donovan, the Station Hotel offers a modern pub brasserie style menu for lunch and dinner seven days a week, with light meals and coffee also available during the day.
Not very impressed. The menu is cluttered. Mostly steaks.
While they have a very good selection of steaks they are all served with chips and salad. There is no option for mash and veges unless you pay an extra $16. Also the salad is over dressed and the chips not anything special.
Service snooty
What a night!!! GREAT FOOD, really good service but still keeping with the casual pub ambience. Had my 40th Birthday celebrations there last week, which meant 12 very fussy friends & I descended on the Station Hotel on a Saturday night...Our waiter was extremely helpful and well versed on both the food & beverage menu's. Our food was delivered quickly and without exception all of my guests enjoyed their meal. Will return again soon..

AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE drummer Chris Emery has officially left the band. In a posting on the group's forum, Emery wrote, "The night before the [band's Feb. 11 hometown] show [in Minneapolis], I quit AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE. Why? I choose to. I'm tired of watching drugs and alcohol destroy everyone around me, including myself. I choose to live with more options. The party is over for me. See you on the other side. If you want to come with, I'll be cheering you on."AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE recently held auditions to replace bassist Chad Hanks after he switched to guitar to replace the recently departed Karma Cheema (Karma has since joined the California-based band OTEP). AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE guitarist Bryan Ottoson died in April 2005 from a prescription drug overdose while the group was on tour with MUDVAYNE. St. Paul Pioneer Press reported in August 2005 that a vandal stole $15,000 worth of high-end amps and other gear from AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE's trailer while it was parked outside of their rehearsal space in Minneapolis.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Sacramento Self-Help Housing non-profit organization is proud to present the 12th Annual "Let Them Eat Cake" fundraising event at The Grand Ballroom (1215 J Street in Sacramento) on Monday evening, July 14, 2014.
The community is invited to celebrate the delectable culinary experience of the French by attending the delightfully unique event that showcases sampling of Sacramento's finest French foods, tasting outstanding local wines and beverages, listening to entertaining live music, viewing amazing artworks by local artists and, of course, feasting their eyes on magnificent and mouth-watering cakes created by talented local bakeries and chefs. Each year, the "Let Them Eat Cake!" fundraising event is scheduled on or near Bastille Day (note that Marie Antoinette is credited with coining the memorable "Let Them Eat Cake" phrase shortly before the French Revolution).
Local restaurants and bakeries participating in the "Let Them Eat Cake" event include the following: Bistro Michel, Cupcake a la Mode, Kate's Kreative Kakes, Nothing Bundt Cakes, Selland's Market and Sweet Cupcakes by Rebecca. Guests can also enjoy beverage tastings by outstanding wineries and coffee houses such as Bogle Winery, Lava Cap Winery, Old Soul Co., Perry Creek Winery, Revolution Wines and Scribner Bend Vineyards.
Of course, cake viewing and sampling is central to this festive event. Interested guests are invited to submit their own home-made creations in a spirited and fun cake contest for a chance to win great prizes. Advance entry information is suggested but not required to participate and guests can show up to the event with a cake to be added to the fun competition. Cakes will be judged in three categories: Best Tasting, Most Creative, and Most Beautiful. Plus, deliciously tempting cakes created by professional bakers will be part of the silent auction and raffle prizes will add to the excitement of the evening. In addition to the cake-infused festivities, guests can also relax in a quaint French Cafe while a talented artist creates keepsake sketches of the memorable event.
The 2014 "Let Them Eat Cake" event is sponsored by Alliance Franaise de Sacramento, Western Health Advantage, Mortgage Consultants Group and the Plumbers & Pipefitters Local Union 447. In addition, a number of local dignitaries have agreed to support and/or co-sponsor the fundraising event as well, including: City of Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, Mayor Pro Tem Angelique Ashby; City Councilmembers Steve Cohn, Darrell Fong, Steve Hanson, Kevin McCarty, Bonnie Pannell, Jay Schenirer, and Allen Warren; Elk Grove Mayor Gary Davis; Citrus Heights Mayor Mel Turner; State Assemblyman Roger Dickinson; County Supervisors Phil Serna, Jimmie Yee & Don Nattoli; Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones; Honorary Event Chair: Jonathan Porteus – CEO, Wellspace Health; and Facility Sponsor: Moe Mohanna – Mohanna Foundation.
"Let Them Eat Cake" tickets cost $40 per person in advance or are $50 at the door. Now in its 12th year, the annual "Let Them Eat Cake" fundraising event benefits the Sacramento Self-Help Housing organization that is committed to providing positive solutions and workable alternatives for local community members dealing with homelessness or trying to break free from a cycle of unstable living situations.

Israeli Military Medics Rescue Palestinian Arab Girl in HebronThursday, July 30th, 2015
An Israeli military medical team rescued a Palestinian Authority Arab girl Thursday in Hebron who suddenly went into respiratory distress.
The team, serving with the Border Guard Police, responded to an emergency call from the family who said the child was having trouble breathing, according to Israel's Channel 2 TV.
Upon arrival paramedic Sgt. Shai Chen also found that the girl's pulse was irregular. He quickly hooked her up to oxygen, speaking to calm her down as he did so.
"I told her I was with her and that everything is fine," he said, adding that he was able to stabilize her condition after she started receiving oxygen.
The Arab family thanked the medic and the emergency response unit for its quick assistance. "We were given care and slowly her breathing returned to normal," family members said.
Fighters on the scene transferred the child for further treatment by medics from the Red Crescent emergency service, who arrived later.
"The entire family thanked us," a spokesperson for the Border Guard Police said. This is not the first case in which a paramedic has provided primary care and life-saving intervention for local Arabs. In recent months, battalion medic Sgt. Krissy Lidor saved the lives of three residents.Hana Levi Julian

DALLAS — The new year got a funky fresh start at South Side Ballroom in Dallas, as local funk singer Larry g(EE) hosted NYgEE. But just before the clock struck midnight, the stage was empty.
In a thank-the-Lord moment, Larry g(EE) and his crew grabbed the mic for the three-two-one. Confetti cannons and NYE kisses. Good save.
The night began with a prompt crowd ready for live, local music. Many came dressed like walking incarnations of the disco ball, in sequins, suits and glitter. The one accessory they shared was a wide smile.
Headed by local country aficionado Madison King, Party Police kicked the night off with a thrashing mix of pop, rock and general weirdness. Their energy was infectious enough to rally the crowd in anticipation of the symbolic ball drop. (The adjacent South Side Ballroom reportedly had a New York City setting with a "real" ball drop.)
Singer Larry Gayao – that's Larry g(EE) – backed by an 11-piece band, debuted two new songs that inspired many to let loose and spawned a dance party near the front of the stage. The band played a full set of originals — showcasing "Yo Mama," "I'm Your Fool," and "Camera Phone" — classily clad in black. They enlisted the help of a dancer, too, who made crowds swoon with her Michael Jackson-inspired look. Her scandalous outfit would have fit better at Light All Night electronic music festival a few days prior, but still, the horns blared and attendees seemed carefree on NYE.
Next, Hall & Oates tribute band The Rich Girls stormed the stage with a near-perfect rendition of "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)". The group's six members embodied the "yacht rock" genre with hats and polos. One of two keyboardists rocked so hard he ended up in his underwear — royal blue boxer briefs. The Rich Girls pulled out all the classics, like "So Close," "Private Eyes," and its namesake "Rich Girl." The treat came during closer "Sara Smile" when every Sara (or Sarah with an "h") staked their claim via hoot-n-holler.
After Larry g(EE) saved the night with his last-minute countdown, he finished the night with country club covers — James Brown's "Sugar and Spice" and "Get Up Now," Talking Heads' "Take Me To The River," John Lennon's "Jealous Guy," and The Ginuwine's "Ride My Pony" to name a few.
NYgEE ended with The Beatles' "Hey Jude," a sincere reminder that the best is yet to come.

HFA Asthma Inhalers: Making the Switch
5. How many people are already using the HFA inhalers?
The FDA isn't tracking the number of people using the HFA inhalers, which have been on the market for a varying number of years, agency spokesman Christopher Kelly said during a May 30 news conference on the switch to HFA-propelled albuterol inhalers.
The FDA's director of the division of pulmonary and allergy products, Badrul Chowdhury, MD, did say during the same new conference that 65% of the 52 million albuterol prescriptions written annually are for HFA inhalers. Albuterol is one of the top 10 medications prescribed in the U.S.
That means that more than one third of albuterol inhalers prescribed are still in CFC form.
6. With only a few months to go before the CFC inhalers disappear from the market, how is the transition going?
Not as smoothly as it should. Although the EPA and FDA made the decision to make the change in 2005, there is an urgent need to get the word out about the switch to HFA inhalers, says Charlotte Collins, director of public policy and advocacy at the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America in Washington, D.C.
"We're hearing from patients who are getting newer inhalers saying they don't work for them, but they haven't had training from their doctors, who may be prescribing them without telling patients. It takes a different patient training process to use them properly," she tells WebMD. "I'm very concerned we're going to have people as of Jan. 1 who aren't going to be able to refill prescriptions and they'll panic. That's not good for asthmatics."
Patients are also reporting they don't like the taste and smell of the HFA inhalers and don't know how to prime them.
"Until patients get an opportunity to try them several times and get some real training, it's hard to assess whether there are across-the-board issues. That's a major undertaking that hasn't been done yet, and it's a real shame. We really haven't road-tested this product among a 'real' patient community," Collins says.
Three years ago, the AAFA issued a statement called Transition Now (available at www.transitionnow.org) to alert patients to the change and explain the difference between the two inhalers. And earlier this year, the AAFA joined a working group that includes the Allergy and Asthma Network Mothers of Asthmatics and the American Lung Association to press the FDA to ramp up efforts to educate the public about the change.

I begin this post with two simple words.
Baby Jeans
Look out baby girls; he's a heart breaker! Ha. While this little charmer took an afternoon nap (yes, as usual, only 30 minutes), I squeezed in a workout. My workouts have changed quite a bit since he's come into my life. I suppose that's to be expected when priorities are shifted.
Sometimes I can make it to the gym for a 40ish-minute workout, but other times I'm at the house or walking/jogging him in the stroller. Due to contractors working on the house in the morning, the gym didn't happen.
I keep my routines flexible, like the one I'm sharing today. This was created for the gym, which would allow for heavy lifting. However, I often adapt it to fit my at-home requirements (dumbbells and resistance bands) by increasing reps and doing other things (ie: some core work) between sets. If at the gym, lift heavy and try to throw in some pyramid sets, drop sets, or occasional burnouts.
Right now I'm working chest, triceps, and shoulders on Mondays. Tuesdays and Thursdays are run days. Wednesday is for back, biceps and a little cross-training cardio, and Friday is leg day. I hope to also get in a run or walk on Saturdays, though I totally understand if I miss a day during the week.
I'll be sharing Wednesday and Friday's routine later in the week.
- Where have you been working out lately?

(Port Angeles) -- As winter approaches, the homeless on the Olympic Peninsula face additional challenges to find suitable shelter from the elements.
Also at risk, are people and families who are about to become homeless due to financial or personal hardship.
Fortunately, a solution already exists to provide help for anyone in this situation.
Housing Resource Centers are available in Port Angeles, Sequim and Forks, to assist anyone who faces the crisis of being or becoming homeless.
These Housing Resource Centers, or H-R-C's, are staffed in all three cities and are ready to provide help each weekday from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, except for a few hours of the morning each Wednesday.
Kathy Wahto, the Executive Director of Serenity House in Port Angeles says that people who are resistant to accepting help, need to be encouraged to check out what's available and take the first step towards a better housing situation.
