I have never heard of "strprn" in C and I have been writing in C since the
early 1970s. If you really want to use strprn, you have three choices:
1.) Add:
int strprn;
strprn = stdout;
to your source code.
2.) Add
#define strprn stdout
to your source code.
3.) Add
int strprn;
strprn = open(....);
if (strprn < 0) {
handle error
to your source code.

I was using an older version of PSM on my old computer and it would connect to my PS3 without any issues.
I got a new computer and installed the new version of PSM. Now it won't recognize the PS3
The explanations on here are too complicated and most of the time I don't understand what I am supposed to do.
How do I get PSM to work now? Is there an easy step by step guide?

Best of 2014: Here's what's making news in the Carrollton-Farmers Branch-Addison communities
Photo: Rose Baca/neighborsgo staff photographer
The Carrollton Parks and Recreation Advisory Board approved a recommendation June 23 for a possible dog park to be built at R J McInnish Park. The location sits near Carrollton Animal Control Services and if it is approved by council, the city could use the $200,000 in approximate remaining funds from the animal shelter for the dog park. If approved, Carrollton residents could possibly see a park by late fall, Mayor Matthew Marchant said.

The club say floodlights, as well as power to the ground's hospitality boxes, scoreboard and turnstiles, have been affected by the theft of electricity cabling.
Tigers chief executive Steve Ferres said: "Our groundstaff returned yesterday (Wednesday) to discover a large amount of cabling had been stolen from the ground. The police have been informed and we will be evaluating the full extent of what needs to be replaced over the next few days."
He added: "Without doubt, it will be a big job and at the worst possible time with the new season fast approaching and our friendly against Featherstone at home only a couple of weeks away.
"We already had a long list of essential repairs that need to be made to the stadium in the coming weeks and this is certainly not going to help our progress.
"To have this setback after a really promising build-up is a real kick in the teeth for us but I am determined not to let it detract from the great work we have already done, as well as the hard work that still needs to be done before the season starts."

|Kansas State Sales Tax for 2016
|Maximum Municipal Sales Tax
What is the Kansas Sales Tax?
The Kansas state sales tax is 6.15%, with a maximum possible sales tax (including local and municipal sales taxes) of 9.65%.
Unlike some other states, Kansas does not allow local and municipal governments to impose their own sales taxes. The maximum sales tax that can be collected anywhere in Kansas is 3.5% of the qualifying purchase price.
Over 700 cities and counties within kansas charge local sales tax rates, and local and city sales taxes can stack on top of each other if the sale is made within overlapping jurisdictions. For example, purchases in Topeka, Kansas must include the Topeka city sales tax and the Shawnee County sales tax in addition to the Kansas state sales tax. The highest sales tax rate in Kansas is 8.85% for purchases made in Douglas County, including stacked local and state sales taxes.
What sales are exempt from the Kansas Sales Tax?
Many states set special sales tax rates for certain types of goods like groceries or clothes, and may completely exempt certain transactions from state and local sales taxes. Kansas, however, does not exempt any purchases from state or local sales taxes.
Kansas does not have special sales tax rates for certain types of purchase, a common practice in many states for goods such as food and clothing.While many other states also collect a special (and often higher) sales tax on prepared and restaraunt food, Kansas does not have a specific restaraunt sales tax.
Generally, the Kansas sales tax is collected only from the end consumer, or the end user of the product. Customers buying products in bulk, as a business-to-business transaction, or buying with the intent to resell do not have to pay the Kansas sales tax if they provide the seller with a Kansas Sales Tax Exemption Certificate at the time of purchase. Most states will accept the Uniform Sales and Use Tax Certificate for this purpose, which is available from the Multistate Tax Commission here.
Internet Sales Tax, or tax on purchases made over the internet, is currently a gray area in many states' tax codes. While most states can collect sales tax on internet purchases made within the state (the vendor and consumer are both located in Kansas), taxation of interstate internet transactions is much more complicated.
Currently New York, Rhode Island, North Carolina, Colorado, and Illinois have some form of online sales tax that also handles interstate transactions. For details on how Kansas handles taxation of online sales, read more about online sales taxes in the United States.

New Guinea Energy float sinks for now
Rex Paura
Posted Jul 12, 2007 9:15 AM
For your information and Interest.
Those who have been my critics and said that I have gone silent on such matters.
July 7, 2007
FATHER-and-son resources promoters John and Jeremy Towner will have to wait a little longer to cash in on their investment in New Guinea Energy after the $50 million float was withdrawn due to lack of interest.
The Sydney pair had planned to turn their $2000 investment into $20 million overnight by selling shares to the public at 50c rather than their entry price of 0.005c.
The recent Australian Stock Exchange listing attempt follows a failed push to list the company on London's Alternative Investment Market last year. New Guinea Energy had been scheduled to list on the ASX on May 30, but the date was postponed at least twice before the plan fell over altogether.
Although New Guinea Energy isn't listed, it is a public company with at least 270 investors. In a letter to shareholders posted on the company's website, John Towner said the board had "regretfully" decided to withdraw the listing since it couldn't meet the minimum subscription of $50 million.
New Guinea Energy has completed a seismic survey of some of its oil and gas prospects in Papua New Guinea with the $20 million it has already raised from investors. It hoped to raise $50 million to $60 million to give it enough money to drill at least five wells at targets with "estimated undiscovered petroleum initially in place" of up to 199 million barrels.
Mr Towner, who also heads copper and bauxite hopeful Ord River Resources, blamed the float's failure on the additional time needed by "a few large investors" to make a decision to invest or arrange necessary funds.
He added the company was considering "various options" to generate value from its large exploration acreage in PNG.
"The size of the exploration areas and the prospects and leads which have been identified by the company have already attracted the attention of several large international investors," Mr Towner said. "We will continue our pursuit of exploration for petroleum and to seek a public listing of the company at a later time."

About the Program
The Criminal Justice program uses a social science perspective to study the nature and causes of crime and provides a comprehensive understanding of the United States criminal justice system.
Lees-McRae College students who major in Criminal Justice benefit from a unique, holistic learning environment. The program of study challenges the student to view crime, law, and social problems from the perspectives of psychology and sociology, as well as those of the specialized Criminal Justice discipline. An internship gives the student hands-on experience and a chance to develop professional relationships. The Senior Research Seminar is a capstone experience where the student works collaboratively with faculty to research a topic of his or her interest, present results and get involved with community service.
Graduates of the program work in law enforcement and investigative agencies at the local, state, and federal levels. Opportunities include correctional institutions, adult and juvenile probation and parole, victim's services, homeland security, private security and other human services-related fields.

Congress Examines Alleged Fraud by Asbestos Claimants
Asbestos litigation may seem like a blast from the mass tort past, but it continues to be the key breadwinner for many a plaintiff attorney's family.
Aided by a bevy of advertising on the Internet and TV, asbestos claims are on the rise. And the payouts are still big. Today in Congress, a House Judiciary Committee heard testimony on alleged fraud and abuse in the asbestos compensation system.
The committee reviewed transparency issues in asbestos trusts, which are massive pools of money set up by companies in bankruptcy to pay off asbestos claims. Defense attorneys have long claimed that plaintiffs double dip and get inflated payouts by filing multiple asbestos claims, both in court and with asbestos trusts, for the same injury. Because settlements are secret and the trusts aren't required to make public their payouts, it's difficult to verify whether claimants are getting overpaid.
In a written statement, Charles Siegel, a partner at the Dallas plaintiffs' firm Waters & Kraus LLP, disputes that point, saying, "there is no windfall of money available to mesothelioma claimants, and plaintiffs cannot and do not 'game the system' such that solvent tort defendants pay the liability shares of bankrupt companies."
See Reuters advanced take on the Congressional hearings here.
Reuters points out that complaints about asbestos litigation have been mounting for years on the Hill yet lawmakers never passed any kind of reform bill. It remains to be seen what the outcome will be of today's hearings.
For now the asbestos litigation train keeps rolling. Later this month in San Francisco, attorneys will gather for a Perrin conference to hear about the state of the asbestos litigation, a roundup of legislation affecting asbestos suits, and a discussion about the future of asbestos bankruptcies.

Doctor Who, Torchwood, Sarah Jane Adventures...
Posted 24 August 2007 - 06:07 PM
*The return of Davros obviously means the return of the Daleks, but how? Perhaps the surviving Dalek (I forget which it was) finds Davros and they somehow rescue the Doomsday Daleks from the void? Or they simply construct new Daleks?
I was watching The End Of The World earlier today, and I noticed that Eccleston mentions being on a ship once; "they called that unsinkable too. Then it hit an iceberg and sank". Obviously this means Titanic, and the Christmas Special is on the Titanic - maybe Tennant bumps into Eccleston? X-D

The Kid, on Aug 24 2007, 07:07 PM, said:
Don't forget that the Doctor has a Time Machine. Any enemy supposedly destroyed can reappear in the series at any time by simply going back in time. If the Doctor was to go back in time to when the Daleks were being created surely he could meet Davros. Obviously this requires the Doctor to be very careful when he goes back in time as the simplest error could change history - a common problem in Sci-Fi.
On that logic I'm not sure why the Master also couldn't return by the mechanism of the Doctor simply jumping forward again to the end of the universe and meeting the old master again before he regenerated into the new Mister Saxon version. I'm not sure if the Doctor's actions would have changed that timeline so presumably that earlier version of the Master is still out there. Indeed if the Doctor can meet earlier or even later versions of himself then presumably he can meet earlier versions of other adverseries including Daleks simply by going back to a point when they existed.

And Davros... let him be dead already lol.
As for Cybermen... there's still the ones in THIS universe, though the alternate reality ones were sucked away.
Yikes... why do I see Dalek / Cyberman hybrids as new enemies of the Doctor? Two violent lifeforms, forced to merge in order to survive / escape the void.
I hope Peter Davidson shows up, he was cool in a weird way.
And not nearly as much a fossil as Tom Baker is now... less makeup to deal with.
::sees "The 11 Doctors" special a few years from now, the characters made up of life-like, entirely CGI past Doctors::
Damn, so Tennant might be out this season? They're burning through Doctors at an alarming rate.
Where's the good old Baker days, where you knew who he was inside and out? :-D
Guess this means the writers already know what to do when his available regenerations hit that scary brick wall in a few years.

So, here's what we definitely know. Agatha Christie will be the 'celebrity historical,' Donna will be back, Martha will be back around the midpoint of the series (with a few Torchwood appearances in the meantime), the Ood will return, but on their own planet I think I heard. We know another 'icon' will be back (probably Davros). I think it was said that the Master wouldn't be back in Series four, but might return later...

Well, on a good note, that cuts down the celebrity historical figure episodes down... can't stand those lol.
So over-done in scifi dealing with time travel.
Also, I'm getting REALLY sick of Bad Wolf, Torchwood, Mr.Saxon type foreshadowing silliness.

And, let's face it, what's the point of having a time machine if you only go to the future or the present? Historicals have always been, are, and always will be. Thankfully they're 'historicals with aliens' as opposed to the 'educational historicals' when the series was born (like The Romans, Marco Polo or The Aztecs).
JINZONINGEN 73, on Aug 25 2007, 11:44 PM, said:
Bear in mind that series archs have been done before, like The Key to Time series and the Trial of a Time Lord series. I like archs anyway (IDWs Transformers springs to mind), and the ones here are prime examples. Plus it gives the impression that time is all interconnected, and everything causes or leads to everything else.

Where is this from?
Posted 14 October 2007 - 02:55 PM
From the Daily Star-
DOCTOR Who bosses are set to call back FOUR of the Time Lord�s favourite assistants � including Billie Piper � for a sensational showdown. The old cast members will be reunited to help the Doc fight evil Dalek creator Davros in an explosive finale to the next series.
Leading the way in the line-up will be Billie (Piper) as Rose Tyler along with the rest of the Tyler family; they will hook up with the Tardis traveller�s latest assistants Martha Jones and Donna Noble. Also on hand to help out the Doc will be his old companion Sarah Jane Smith as well as Torchwood boss Captain Jack Harkness. Even the Time Lord�s dog K-9 will make an appearance.
The TV source said: "This is the daddy of all shows. The writer Russell T Davies really wants to pull out all the stops for the finale next year."
The official Doctor Who site has confirmed that the Sontarans, potato-headed monsters from the classic series, will return to Doctor Who in Series Four.
The Sontarans, a militaristic clone race, first appeared opposite the Third Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith in 1973, in The Time Warrior, which has recently been released on DVD in the UK. Sontarans also appeared in The Sontaran Experiment (1975), The Invasion of Time (1978) and The Two Doctors (1985). More recently, the potato-headed monsters were mentioned in "The Eye of the Gorgon, Part 1", an episode of The Sarah Jane Adventures which aired on CBBC on Monday.
In Series Four, the Sontaran leader will be played by Christopher Ryan, best known as Mike in the 1980s comedy series The Young Ones. Ryan appeared as another alien, the Mentor Lord Kiv, in the 1986 story The Trial of a Time Lord: Mindwarp, opposite Sixth Doctor Colin Baker. That story also featured Trevor Laird, who played Martha Jones' father Clive in Series Three.
Ta da!
EDIT- Oh, and-
The official Doctor Who website has released some information about an upcoming story in Series Four. The story will be set in Pompeii in AD 79, just before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. In this episode the Doctor and Donna are faced with a moral dilemma: should they warn the residents of the impending disaster and change the course of history, or let history take its course?
Guest stars in the episode will include Academy Award and BAFTA winner Peter Capaldi ("The Thick of It") as Caecillius, Tracey Childs ("Howards' Way") as Metella, and Phil Davis ("Quadrophenia") as Lucius; Davis also appeared with Eighth Doctor Paul McGann in the film Alien3.
As previously reported, filming for the Pompeii episode took place at Rome's Cinecitta Studios.

From the Sun-
Doctor Who legend Peter Davison is to step back into the Tardis � and come face to face with the current Doctor.
Peter, 56, who played the Timelord in the 1980s, will pull on his famous trenchcoat once again for a Children In Need special.
Bosses are tight-lipped about the storyline, written by Who scribe Stephen Moffat.
But an insider revealed: �The Doctor is forever travelling though time so there�s no reason why he couldn't catch up with a former incarnation.
�Peter was top of the writer�s list to make a comeback."
This year�s Children In Need charity telethon takes place on BBC1 on Friday, November

AbstractThe protein kinase C (PKC) family proteins are important signal transducers and have long been the focus of cancer research. PKCɛ, a member of this family, is overexpressed in most solid tumors and plays critical roles in different processes that lead to cancer development. Studies using cell lines and animal models demonstrated the transforming potential of PKCɛ. While earlier research established the survival functions of PKCɛ, recent studies revealed its role in cell migration, invasion and cancer metastasis. PKCɛ has also been implicated in epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), which may be the underlying mechanism by which it contributes to cell motility. In addition, PKCɛ affects cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions by direct regulation of the cytoskeletal elements. Recent studies have also linked PKCɛ signaling to cancer stem cell functioning. This review focuses on the role of PKCɛ in different processes that lead to cancer development and progression. We also discussed current literatures on the pursuit of PKCɛ as a target for cancer therapy.

A program at the U.S. Penitentiary in Leavenworth yielded more than 85,000 pounds of produce last year.
The Leavenworth Times reports the program is on track to yield up to about 160,000 pounds this year.
Keith Thomas, education specialist at the federal prison, says the produce is donated to local food banks. Thomas discussed the program during a recent meeting of USP's Community Relations Board. The produce grown this year includes sweet corn, tomatoes and lettuce.
Thomas says there are 24 acres for the field operations of the garden program. He says many inmates who participate in the program had never worked in a garden or on a farm. But he says gardening helps them and lets them give back to the community.

The Department offers both language placement tests and language proficiency exams to assist Benedictine students in selecting the language course that best meets their educational needs and, in other cases, to establish their level of proficiency in a second language. This page explains the difference between these types of exams, as well as the policies and procedures associated with each one.
Language placement tests simply allow academic advisors to identify a language course offered at Benedictine (Arabic, Chinese, or Spanish) in which students are most likely to succeed given their current level of proficiency. These tests are administered via WebCAPE (online Computerized Adaptive Placement Exams) or through an interview with a member of the Department's language faculty.
Language proficiency examinations, on the other hand, in addition to being closely proctored, are more comprehensive and rigorous than placement tests, and they are designed to determine whether students have reached the minimal proficiency level necessary to satisfy the language requirements of their respective programs.
All students should be aware that there is a maximum of 6 hours of proficiency
credit in any one language allowed per student. Therefore, if a student places into a language class at the 202 level
or higher and has already received AP or CLEP credit for 101- and 102-level classes in that language, s/he cannot also receive departmental placement credit for a course at the 201 level or
higher. Please note that, once posted to the student's transcript, AP or CLEP credit cannot
be removed.
A Spanish placement exam is required for students who have taken any Spanish in high school. The placement test is also required for students who have acquired a level of proficiency in Spanish in a non-classroom setting (e.g., native speakers, home use of Spanish or study abroad), and for those students who have a lapse of a year or more in their language studies.
In accordance with the policies described above, a student who takes the Benedictine University placement exam places into SPAN 102 or above, AND completes at least one Spanish course at Benedictine above the SPAN 101 level with a grade of "C" or higher may request proficiency credit. Such students should submit a Petition for External Credit form.
Note: there is a maximum of 6 hours of proficiency credit allowed per student. Therefore, if a student places into SPAN 202 or higher and has received AP or CLEP credit for SPAN 101 and SPAN 102, that student cannot also receive departmental placement credit for SPAN 201 or higher.
Once posted to the student's transcript, AP or CLEP credit cannot be removed, therefore it is highly recommended that students considering a major or minor in Spanish consult with the Chair of the Department of Languages and Literature BEFORE posting AP or CLEP credit.
Students seeking a Spanish major or minor should be aware that courses below the SPAN 201 level, although they count as hours toward graduation, do NOT fulfill any requirement for the major or minor.
For more information about the Spanish placement exam, or to arrange to take the test, contact Ms. Elaine Ebeling.
Candidates for the B.A. degree in some programs (e.g., English Language and Literature, History, Music, Philosophy, and Writing & Publishing) are required to demonstrate competency in a second language by successfully completing at least one language course at or above the 202 level. Students in the Scholars Program are required to demonstrate the ability to speak, read, and write a second language at a level equivalent to six semesters of college study (completion of the 211 and 212 courses in a language).
In addition to Spanish classes, the Department of Languages and Literature offers courses in Arabic and Chinese. Benedictine students can also use the University's consortium agreements with North Central College and Aurora University to take courses in languages not offered at Benedictine. Students who want to take advantage of these agreements must obtain a "Consortium Exchange Course Authorization" form from the Student Success Center (SSC), or BenCentral. Approval of the student's academic advisor and the University Registrar are necessary before a student may register for a course at the host institution.
While the final decision regarding fulfillment
of a student's second language proficiency requirement rests with the student's
program, the Department of Languages and Literature has
traditionally helped students in other programs satisfy these requirements by
proctoring on-line based proficiency examinations in several languages. Writing
(online or pencil-and-paper exams) and/or oral proficiency examinations (conducted by phone
interviews) in dozens of other languages can also be arranged through LTI (Language Testing International),
a partner of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages
For more information about language proficiency testing procedures, please contact the Chair of the Department.

Firefox 4 Reignites Browser Wars
Gary Kovacs, CEO of Mozilla is in London in the run up to the launch of the latest version of the seminal Firefox browser, version 4. We met up to get a look at the browser, the final pre-launch version of which was released Monday.
First I have to make a declaration of interest. The first browser I ever used was Mosaic 0.76b, back in 1994. Mosaic was the forerunner of Netscape which was the forerunner of Mozilla. Until some point about six months ago, I have always used a Firefox (or one of its predecessors) browser. I shunned Safari, I never even contemplated Internet Explorer (though at one point I did have IE5.5 on my laptop for some reason).
A few years back, when I changed careers to become a developer, Firefox's add-ons were essential. What web developer can live without Firefox's developer tool bar or any of the other dozen or so add-ons?
But like a fickle lover, someone new and younger appeared on the scene. My head was turned. No longer needing the add-ons Firefox offered, I dumped it for the shiny slickness of Google's Chrome browser. By making itself so versatile, Firefox had also made itself slow. Chrome was new, shiny and above all, fast.
The first thing you notice about the new browser is how fast it is. According to their tests, it is between two and six times faster than the last version of Firefox. A lot of work has taken place under the bonnet, says Jay Sullivan, VP of products for Mozilla—in the way that the browser renders pages, how it uses your device's native functions and also in how it handles open tabs. The overall effect is a marked increase in speed.
Managing the forest of open tabs
The second is how clean it is. Gone are the layers of tool bars, status bars, the bookmark bar. Instead there is a row of tabs—much like Chrome. Interestingly, Mozilla is sticking to the more traditional address box on the left and search box on the right like IE and Safari. Google's Chrome has combined the search box and address box into one.
The third thing you notice is the richness of the experience. Firefox 4 is by no means the first browser to support HTML5, the latest version of the underlying language of the web, but as the technology becomes more mainstream, the sheer beauty and speed of the experience is going to make our browsing much richer. In part that richness comes because modern browsers are able to access your computer's graphics processor.
One feature that really struck me was what Mozilla have called Panorama. If you end up with dozens of tabs open at once, managing them can be something of a problem, to say nothing of the speed. Firefox 4 has the ability to group those pages into collections and makes it easy to switch between them. It brings order to the chaos of dozens of simultaneously open tabs.
The integration with mobile is also well thought out. If your desktop browser and your mobile browser are synched, the state of open tabs, groups etc is recorded. When you shut down your desktop browser and open up your mobile it is in the same state with the same tabs open, the same pages loaded, so in theory you can pick-up on your mobile device in the same place you left off on your desktop. A Google Chrome plug-in (called Chrome To Phone) offers similar functionality, but users have to download and install the plug-in.
Has Firefox done enough to regain its place on my Mac? We'll see. Having spent the day playing with it, the Panorama feature is really useful and as someone who expects a lot from his browser, that could be enough to cause me to switch back. The increased speed is also a big plus. My guess is that developers will be delighted with the changes. Firefox 4 supports their add-on of choice and they will be very happy with the marked speed increase.
As for normal users, browsers are somewhat like toothpaste. You use whichever browser you have always used. Now that for the first time Microsoft has a half-way decent browser in IE9, you actually have a real choice between any one of three browsers.

Pedestrians come to the aid of a motorist stuck on a flooded-out road along the shoreline area of Milford, Conn., ahead of Hurricane Sandy on Oct. 29, 2012.
God of the Universe, at the dawn of creation, your Spirit breathed on the waters, making them the wellspring of all holiness. You created the oceans and rivers, and all that dwell within them, and at your word the wind and the waves were born. The seasons follow your plan, and the tides rise and fall on your command. In both calm and storm, you are with us.
On the Sea of Galilee, even when the disciples began to fear, Jesus showed that he was Lord over the waters by rebuking the storms, so that all would know that even the wind and the waves obey him. Creator God, we ask you to calm the wind and the waves of the approaching hurricane, and spare those in its path from harm.
Help those who are in its way to reach safety. Open our hearts in generosity to all who need help in the coming days. In all things and in all times, help us to remember that even when things seem dark and stormy, you are in the boat with us, guiding us to safety. Amen.
The Rev. James Martin, S.J., is contributing editor to America Magazine.

Gambino takes center stage for Wolcott
WOLCOTT — For two seasons, Wolcott High quarterback Vincent Gambino waited patiently in the shadows, knowing his opportunity would come.
Gambino watched from the sidelines as teammate Mike Nicol quarterbacked the Eagles to consecutive Class M playoff appearances.
"I always tried to keep my arm loose and knew that I would be ready when called upon," said Gambino.
That time came in 2013.
With Nicol now at Western Connecticut, Gambino inherited the starting job this fall. Through 10 games, Gambino, the grandson of the late legendary Wilby High head coach Dom Gambino and younger brother of former Wolcott QB Dominic Gambino, has thrown for 2,436 yards and 32 touchdowns.
Gambino will lead the Eagles (7-3) against Holy Cross (7-3) this morning at 10:30. The winner remains in contention for the state playoffs.
"Vincent is probably the most important reason we are where we are now," said Wolcott teammate and junior wide receiver Jason Pelletier. "He has led us throughout the whole season."
Gambino has completed 148 of his 237 attempts with only 10 interceptions.
"Vincent always makes the right reads," said Pelletier, a neighbor of Gambino his entire life. "We were always playing football in the backyard from the time we were little, so that has made it so much easier."
Now that Gambino is an established starter, and among the Naugatuck Valley League's elite signal-callers, he is using a trait that all good quarterbacks have: poise.
"From the time that we started playing sports, he was always the go-to-guy," noted Pelletier. "In basketball, if there was little time on the clock, I knew that Vincent would step up in the clutch situation."
He did that in Week 3 of this season when the Eagles rallied from a 26-point deficit and a 34-13 halftime deficit en route to a 48-41 victory. It was Pelletier who caught Gambino's 21-yard TD pass with 11.6 seconds left for the game-winner.
"Vincent told me right before the last drive that we would score, and he told me that he would get me the ball on the last play," said Pelletier. "I believed him. I always do. We all have so much faith in him. When we were down by so much, he looked so calm. We fed off that and knew it was possible."
Gambino said he credited Nicol and his older brother, Dominic, with teaching him the ropes in pressure situations.
"They just told me to play my game, and not their style of play," said Gambino, a dropback passer who can roll out and put his head down and run as well.
"Ever since I was about 10, I played quarterback and wanted the ball in my hands," said Gambino, who quarterbacked the Wolcott Eagles Junior Midget team to the state Pop Warner title.
"None of what I have accomplished would be possible without the players' protection around me," said Gambino, referring to center Zac Burksa, right guard Dan Catania, right tackle Tom Longo, left guard Andrew Pabey and left tackles Cole Phelps and Tyler Staples.
Equally important are the roles that Pelletier, Jayson Matos, Adam Santopietro and Mike Druan provide and the running capability of tailback Joe Lynch.
"Joe makes my job easier and gives me so much more confidence," said Gambino.
"I learned my calmness and leadership from Mike (Nicol)," said Gambino. "Wherever he was on the field, he was a star."
Gambino is turning into one, too.
"Football has always been really big in my family," said Gambino. "I've learned so much from my grandfather's legacy. I never want to give up in a game. He motivates me every single time I step on the field."

HALTOM CITY (October 3, 2013)—State Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Fort Worth, announced her candidacy for governor of Texas Thursday.
In an e-mail to supporters, Davis promised to represent the interests of middle-class residents, focusing on education, economic development and health care.
She was scheduled to make a formal announcement later in the day at a rally in Haltom City.
The Fort Worth lawmaker came to national attention in June for her nearly 13-hour filibuster that helped temporarily block new statewide abortion restrictions.
The law later passed.
Since the filibuster, Democratic activists have called on Davis to break a 20-year losing streak for Texas governor.
Attorney General Greg Abbott is the front-runner for the Republican nomination.
He's raised $25 million.
Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa issued a statement Thursday calling Davis "the candidate for governor Texans deserve."
Over the next year you will continue to see grassroots energy and engagement like you've never seen before in Texas," he said.
"We're all ready to knock on doors, make the calls, talk to our neighbors, and raise the money required so that Wendy Davis will be elected the next governor of Texas."
Davis, at this point, has a little more than $1 million.
Republican Gov. Rick Perry is not seeking re-election.

Options for generating revenue are discussed
SIKESTON - The Sikeston City Council awarded the bid to provide the city with workers compensation insurance to Liberty Mutual during their special meeting this morning.
The premium for one year of coverage for both the city and Board of Municipal Utilities is $387,903 with the city's portion being $131,997. "Their premium went up and ours went down," said Karen Bailey, city treasurer, as the city has a smaller payroll and has had fewer losses than the BMU.
Bailey said the policy is basically reinsurance in which the city pays any single claim less than $200,000 or a total of $1 million.
"This is basically the plan we had last year," said City Manager Doug Friend. "Really it's the only option we've got."
Five bid packets were sent out, Bailey said.
Council also discussed several items.
* Mark Grim of Peckham, Guyton, Albers and Viets, a St. Louis consulting firm specializing in planning and urban renewal projects, discussed with Council options for generating revenue.
Friend estimated a revenue shortfall of $450,000 to $500,000 at the existing level of services provided by the city.
Revenue options discussed included special and general obligation bond issues; issuing revenue anticipation notes; and sales tax revenue bonds.
"We've got two different issues," said Mayor Mike Marshall. With the budget shortfall and plans for long-term improvements, the city needs "to look at two different financial options...We need to find another source of revenue."
Marshall suggested scheduling meetings with area service clubs in the fall to discuss "budget challenges."
In later discussion, Marshall noted the Land Clearance Redevelopment Authority's Community Development Block Grant application was not among the 36 approved, even though being rated number one based on need and had matching funds available.
The City is appealing the decision and seeking more information on why it was denied. "They haven't sent us the details," said Friend.
* Bill Green, director of the department of economic development, briefed the Council on a proposed Village Green Tax Increment Financing project which would involve tearing the shopping center down and rebuilding it in stages, reorienting it toward South Main.
The shopping center includes the Big Lots building and Dairy Queen.
The first stage, Green said, is to send out requests for proposals.
* Council members delayed appointments to an ad hoc public education-government channel advisory committee until the next regular meeting when other city board and committee appointments are slated to be made.

Protect Your Child's Teeth During Sports With A Mouth Guard
Mark Papish, MD, FAAEM
New York Emergency Medicine Physician, Mark Papish, MD, FAAEM and
Assistant Director Emergency Medicine Services at Nyack Hospital
explains why mouth guards are a vital piece of sports equipment for children.
Nyack, N.Y. March 31, 2014 - Mouth guards are a simple way to help children playing organized sports to dramatically decrease their risk of mouth injuries, including knocked-out teeth. Yet most kids who play sports don't wear them. A recent survey by the American Academy of Orthodontists found 84% of children do not wear mouth guards when playing organized sports, because they aren't required to do so.
A mouth guard covers the upper teeth, and protects the teeth, gums and jaw. It reduces the risk of broken teeth and injuries to the soft tissues of the mouth. It holds teeth in place, while allowing for normal speech and breathing. If your child plays organized sports, ask their dentist to recommend the best mouth guard for their particular activity. During National Facial Protection Month in April, the American Dental Association urges parents to outfit their children with mouth guards if they play any sport that involves the risk of injury, including football, hockey, basketball and volleyball.
Team sports aren't the only activities that pose a risk to the mouth. Dental professionals also encourage use of mouth guards during recreational activities such as skateboarding and rollerblading. They note that a mouth guard is considerably less expensive than repairing a mouth injury. If your child wears braces, a mouth guard provides a barrier between the braces and their cheek or lips.
Dentists can make a customized mouth guard, which provides the best fit. You can also buy a boil-and-bite mouth guard, which is softened in boiling water to fit the mouth, or a stock mouth guard, which is ready to wear, but these products often don't fit as well.
Tips for caring for your mouth guard:

New York (Platts)
Pipeline safety legislation passed this week by both houses of Congress is a "modest step forward, a good step forward," but doesn't go far enough on some crucial safety concerns, said Rep. Jackie Speier, whose California district was the scene of a natural gas pipeline explosion in 2010 that killed eight people.
Speier, a Democrate, represents California's 12th Congressional District, which includes the city of San Bruno, south of San Francisco, where a Pacific Gas & Electric gas line blew up in September 2010. In addition to the eight deaths, another 70 were injured and 38 homes were destroyed.
Speaking on Platts Energy Week, Speier said the legislation passed this week--H.R. 2845, The Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty, and Job Creation Act of 2011--fails to address some of the most significant issues of pipeline safety.
"One of them is in-line leak inspections," said Speier, a Democrat. "The other is automatic and remote shut-off valves. The legislation we just passed says don't worry about older pipe, we're just going to look at newer pipe. And you only have to put automatic or remote shut-off valves when it is operations, technologically and economically feasible. Well, will it ever be economically feasible? It's a loophole that really doesn't exist."
The bill has not yet been signed by President Obama, but Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood has lauded its passage. Speier also credited Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky with holding up the bill in the Senate, where it was beefed up to include maximum allowable operating pressure on pre-1970 pipe, which was not originally in the bill.
'REST EASIER' The US has more than 2.5 million miles of pipeline, carrying gas, oil and hazardous liquids. Since 2006, there have been an average of 40 pipeline incidents a year involving fatalites or injuries. In California since the San Bruno blast, Speier said, PG&E and the state Public Utilities Commission are moving beyond the requirements of the legislation.
"My constituents are going to rest easier because they are going to be the beneficiaries of safeguards that far exceed the legislation that we have just passed," she said. "In California, Pacific Gas & Electric has committed to putting automatic and remote shut-off valves on old pipe as well as new pipe in what are called high-consequence areas, in highly density areas and near seismic activity. So, in California there is going to be a higher level of safeguards than anywhere else in the country."
The California PUC has also boosted its safety efforts, shifting beyond its historical focus on rates, Speier said. "That has changed as a result of this horrific accident," she said. Describing the San Bruno blast, Speier said a fireball spewed into the air for 90 minutes before flow on the line was eventually shut. "If that had been turned off remotely in 10 minutes, what a difference it would have made," she said.
Speier's own pipeline safety legislation--H.R. 22, The Pipeline Safety and Community Empowerment Act of 2011--would require automatic and remote shut-off valves in high density areas. It also requires that pre-1970 pipe would be subject to safety requirements as well.

Gylfi Sigurdsson towards the end of the January transfer window, you have to question the logic in keeping around such an obvious square peg in a round hole, so will the north London outfit come to regret turning down such an attractive offer in the future?
It's worth noting that Sigurdsson was very much a Daniel Levy signing, put in place even before the Portuguese manager had walked through the door. Andre Villa-Boas was certainly asked his opinion on his first signing in charge, and after such a successful six-month spell at Swansea the campaign before, for a fee of about £8m, with Rafael van der Vaart being ushered towards the exit door, it made sense to bring in a suitable replacement.
Nevertheless, after starting just six league games so far this season and eight across all competitions, it's become clear that life at White Hart Lane has proven more of a struggle than even his biggest critics would have previously assumed. There's a sense that unless the 23-year-old is scoring, that he doesn't really contribute a whole lot less, but he's still reasonably young and learning his trade, so is there a future still for him at the club?
Villas-Boas would seem to think so, telling reporters why he blocked the deal towards the end of the window: "Obviously he's a player that means a lot to Reading. But he's a player that we rate very highly. We brought him here after his amazing contribution [on loan] for Swansea last year and he's a player that we have high expectations for. Probably this season at the moment he is not going to the level that he wants, but he's a player that we believe a lot in, and in his future here. We couldn't allow him to leave."
The arrival of Clint Dempsey as a utility forward towards the end of the summer and the January acquisition of Lewis Holtby, brought forward a full six months ahead of schedule would seem to complicate matters even further, with Villas-Boas clearly earmarking the latter for that role behind the lone striker, whoever that may be next season. The fact that a deal had already been put in place for Holtby to arrive in the summer when his contract runs out from Schalke, but that a £1.5m switch was secured last month is a sad indictment of the faith they place in Sigurdsson at the moment, who looks bereft of confidence whenever he has featured these past few months, even being tried out in an unfamiliar wide left position.
McDermott revealed that Reading made three offers which were all turned down by Tottenham, so that shows a degree of persistence on their part just as much as it does a stubborn refusal to give up on a player so soon after buying him in the first place.
The club's fans haven't quite taken to him either and there's a sense that he's something of a forgotten man around the place; not quite quick enough, not quite tricky or technical enough, nor dependable enough to have any sort of lasting impact on the starting eleven and he's been forced to make 19 of his 27 appearances this term off the bench.
He was bought with a specific role in mind but has faced increased competition in the position he is most effective in and Villas-Boas has even preferred picking Emmanuel Adebayor just behind Jermain Defoe at times in a more traditional 4-4-2 formation, with Dempsey pushed out wide to cover Gareth Bale's absence, rather than trust Sigurdsson to fill the gap temporarily.
The final offer made by Reading would have seen Tottenham make a £2m profit in terms of the fees involved and you have to wonder whether they'll ever get as an attractive offer as that further down the line, particularly while his stock continues to fall. Cutting your losses can often be quite embarrassing for every party involved, but with Villas-Boas set to add to his squad once more in the summer, perhaps with another move for Joao Moutinho, you have to ask yourself, how much longer do you wait before coming to the same inevitable conclusion? That's he's just not up to the standard required for a side with Champions League ambitions.
The logic behind his decision to reject Liverpool's advances and continue to work under a manager in Brendan Rodgers at Anfield that he had a good relationship with at the time looked a strange one, but with every passing fixture, as his rivals continue to stake their claims, it looks even worse. Sigurdsson can only watch from the bench now, frustrated at his lack of prominence and inability to change the tone of the narrative, with the route back looking ever more distant and difficult to travel.
Took it and run is an understatement.
Sigurdsson looked good in the Spurs side that toured the USA last summer. However, all the new competition has pushed him down the pecking order and (naturally) his confidence has suffered. It would have made sense in the light of new arrivals to the squad if Spurs had sold him for a very attractive £10m and put the money towards another striker in the summer. If we are to understand that the Sig was a 'Levy signing' this may go a little way to explaining why he did not move to Reading. He ramains a good player in my opinion, but he also remains a largely unused player.
Sigurdsson was indeed a Levy signing but then again so was Dembele, Vertonghen and wasnt VDV also a Levy signing?
Seems to me that Sigurdsons difficulty in getting in a team he looked good in 8 months ago is a good sign the team has moved on once again. It dont make him a poor player it just means the team has got better, if you get rid of him who is going to replace him for the same 10m? It's been a long time since an 11 man team won the league. It's a squad competition now and in our squad we have players as good as Sigurdson on the bench.
ShouLd of sold Siggy & Defoe & brought in a ttop class striker
This was a half decent article until I read that Boas might go back in for Joao Moutinho.What world you living in.Wise up to the fact nobody is coming in.Reason being there are piles of earth across the road and until that is converted in to a new stadium the very best you will see is loans and rejects, such as Saha/Nelsen even Boas was free.
You guys are very wrong. Sigurdsson will become an invaluable player in the first team. I don't think Villas Boas knows where to play him. The trouble is when ever he plays he's been up front with Dempsey, who is awful at linking up play. When Sigurdsson gets a run in the team with the first team players around him, I think you'll see a decent player.
I know where avb should play Siggy; at Reading.
Sigurdsen will play a lot next season. I expect Bale to be sold and the width to come from the full backs, probably Kyle walker and Danny Rose. Have a feeling Lennon and Parker may be gone by January 2014 too.
God you're depressing me – you mean we're gonna morph into swansea?
A classic no-brainer – should've without a doubt, we'd even have made a profit and I'm sure Siggy would relish helping Reading stay up.
What really annoys me about this is we could have then got a decent striker without levy wetting himself about the cost. Bizarre.
What and paid £10 million for a replacement? We would have been short in midfield cover. Sigurdsson ha shown flashes in games that he can adapt so we were right to keep him.
Spurs maintained they wanted to buy a striker in the summer (when they are cheaper) unless they could get someone better than they had, the right approach. You don't buy just for the sake of it. Ade was missing for much of the first part of the season injured so our situation is no different than it was then and we sit 1 point off third. Our rivals Arsenal and Everton didn't strengthen so there is no need to panic.

There can be several reasons to why a horse is hard mouthed, the most common reason would be more of a phsicological problem than a physical one. This is mostly cause by bad riding or failing to train the horse to give in to pressure. Also this could happen to well train horses, when the rider depends too much on the reins for balance, and does not use his/her legs and seat to steer the horse; Pulling a horse too much too often can only develop a hard mouth, stiffness and resistance. Horses by nature resist to pressure, so its our goal to teach them not to.
A lot of riders will only put a harder bit masking the problem, but in the end the horse will eventually learn to resist the bit, forcing the rider to use even a harsher bit, its like a cycle that will continue to repeat itself until it gets fixed from the roots. Hard-mouthed horses also stiffen up when you try to bend or flex them, causing flat turns and jolting transitions. Often, the very things that horses do to lessen the pain cause riders to stiffen up more and pull harder on the reins.
A hard mouthed horse can be fixed, by careful retraining, going back to basics, and teaching the meaning of "whoa" rather than just pulling or seesawing the bit un till he cant resist no more, Teach your horse the meaning of the seat, horses are very sensitive animals, they can feel the slightest touch of a fly on their body; Your goal as a rider is to each your horse the real meaning of your body cues and avoid pulling your horse too hard, it just creates resistance.
There can be other things causing a hard mouthed horse, such as back and mouth problems. Horses who have back problems will try to pull on the bit in an attempt to lift their back and the rider trying to get rid of the pain.
"There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man." -Winston Churchill
* The only real way to handle him is by re-trainning him and not by using a harsher bit. Also by teaching you to use your seat and leg aids in a more dependent way, in the end if you look at a well trained horse with a good rider, the rider will use a 50% legs 45% seat and 5% hands. which means that it is possible to ride a horse without having to use your hands much. But it does take a lot of hard work to achieve this. By doing a lot of flat work and lower level dressage exercises, or down ward transitions, you can eventually develop some suppleness and more understanding of the aids.
*The problem with him being 15 yrs old could only be that he has carried on with the problem for a long period of time, but it really doesn't matter when talking about age, it depends more on the horse and how you are working with him.
*It is always a preferable thing to have someone with more experience to help you out and fix this problem. because there are cases when the horse is not the one with the real problem, it could possibly be the rider itself, your body and your way of riding completely affects the way the horse feels, moves, and what he does. There are many exercises to retrain hard mouthed horses, but for now start teaching him to stop with the word "whoa" when you are leading him with a halter on the ground. He will soon relate the word with stopping.

In my mail today I recieved a card from both canidates for District Judge. I suspect other regular primary voters got the same.
Heres what stood out for me.
Standridge listed his qualifications for the job.
Casady draws on the endorsements from the same Good Old Boys who have been running things for years.
I got the feeling that these same good old boys have a vested interest in Casady, and a ton of money invested in her election.
Ask yourself this question, why would these elected officials endorse any canidate, especially one with so blatent a Conflict of interest?
Send a message, don't let them buy an election. Don't allow the Saline County Prosecutors wife to sit as Judge.
Views: 421
dude we get it you dont like casady and pennington you have muuulllltiple posts on here right now that only deal with these people and then its only you commenting on your own posts. You are either brent standridge, james wards brother or both.....
Casady got the good ol boy endorsements?
I didn't realize James Ward endorsed her. Afterall, it was Casady's husband who refused to prosecute James Ward... this good ol boy stuff isn't fair!
I have nothing against Ken or Stephanie Casady. I bet they are ok . Good , smart, people can make bad decisions too. This one affects all of us.
I didn't realize James Ward endorsed her.
Are you dreaming stuff up again Chris??
You got me mixed with someone else. Only thing i mentioned about Casidy is that I was impressed that he treated James fair. Not that having no insurence is right, but cops dont investigate every person that gives them a insurence card. That cop was clearly being political..... as for Casidy he did the right thing by not harassing James like the cop wanted to do.
That's why I didn't say "you" said it. I said your little gaggle has said it. Your own goofs have shown the hypocrisy multiple times here.
Were you not talking to me when you said this? "Yall have said Ken Casidy is a good ol boy"
Looks to me that you were saying that I said it ... talk about my goofs ... your in another world
I never said Ken Casady was a bad guy, I never said I think Ken Casady is crooked.I said he and Stephanie have made a bad decision running Stephanie for Judge now, while Ken holds the Prosecutors seat. Guess what, I would support Ken for Prosecutor tomorrow.If Stephanie wins, Ken should resign, what is so difficult with this concept? Its a conflict of interest. I also stand by my comments about the good old boy network.When Stephanie asked for endorsements from current and past Saline County Officials, she asked for favors, favors must be repaid. We all know this, but the favors I owe are not the same as favors a Judge owes.
"Yall" is plural for more than one, jeenyus.
Chris you wear us all out with your smart a$$ comments. You are like a child who has to have the last "what if" or to prove a point. I try to be a gentleman but I see your purpose on this blog is to spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, spin. If you have a real point, speak it but your coming back with little boyish remarks and things like "jeenyus" are immature. You are a cop?
Peter, the "let's turn it around on them" excuse doesn't work when the same exact garbage is flying directly off the keyboards of those I have been replying too. Find a better one. And no, family and friends are.

GOP fails to keep Black voters down
caines | 10/25/2012, 5:30 a.m.
Millions of Americans voted for the first time during the 2008 presidential election. The outcome made history when then-Senator Barack Obama was voted in as the 44th president of the U.S. This win was a true testament of democracy and the power of voting.Blacks and other minorities were not the only ones realizing the power of their votes, but the GOP witnessed it as well.Allegedly on inauguration day in 2009, Republicans met and agreed to obstruct everything the president planned to do. Since then GOP governors and other GOP operatives have been strategizing to squash the votes of millions of Americans so there will not be a repeat in 2012 of what happened in 2008. Republicans have put a great deal of effort into suppressing the Democratic vote in the 2012 presidential election. Reducing the number of working hours of the polls and purging eligible voters from the voter-registration lists are just some of the tactics used to intimidate and rob targeted Americans of their vote. But if that doesnt stop you from voting, Republicans are using anonymous groups to post intimidating billboards in Black and Latino communities threatening jail timeto anyone whocommits voter fraud. The GOP and their right wing extremists have been working feverishly to suppress the Democratic voters. However, their schemes to disenfranchise millions have not gone unnoticed or unchallenged this year. It was voter rights activists and other leaders who successfully challenged Florida restrictive voter laws some of which were subsequently overturned by the courts.Now the rest is up to us voters to stop them in their tracks. We must be willing to do our part and go vote.Before Election Day Nov. 6th, we must make sure we take a valid and current picture ID. We must also be aware of any changes to our poll site. Remember that early voting begins for Miami-Dade County on Oct. 27th, lasting through Nov. 3rd from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The critics of President Obamas first four years in office are equivalent to a drowning victim criticizing a rescue worker after being saved from a sinking ship.When Obama took office in 2008 the country was on a downward spiral. The automobile, financial and banking industries were all collapsing until the Obama administration intervened. It was the GOP who left this country and the economy in a mess and now they want to blame Obama for their failures and misdeeds. Remember that during this election we got the power and we must continue to support the president in his quest to lead and govern.Lets do it again andget out the vote in 2012. Gonna do it again, do it again, do it again (Staple Singers) and vote like we did in 2008.

Speed limits for thoroughfares and major collector streets are established based upon recognized engineering criteria related to roadway design. Some of the variables include street width, lane width, sight distance, number and type of driveways, and vertical/horizontal alignments. Changing conditions may dictate a review of posted speed limits from time to time. NCDOT is involved in the process on most thoroughfare streets.
By State statute, streets within the Charlotte city limits have a speed limit of 35 mph unless otherwise posted. That includes neighborhood streets. There are circumstances where a 25 mph speed limit is more appropriate. CDOT staff will review citizen requests to lower the speed limit on a neighborhood street to 25 mph. Evaluations will focus on sight distance, street width and usage, sidewalks, curves, hills and the depth of residential frontages. The proximity of schools, parks and other pedestrian generators will be considered.
Neighborhood residents may request a reduction in speed limit by writing the CDOT or filling out an online form. Neighborhood support is desired, and the resident requesting the change in speed limit can obtain that support by one of two methods:
1) A letter of support from the neighborhood association. The neighborhood association will be required to notify affected property owners (as defined by CDOT) of the proposed change in speed limit, and no petition will be required, or
2) If the neighborhood association does not support the proposed change, the resident can petition. Should petitioning be required, the CDOT will define the impact area, and issue the petition to the requestor. Petitions require signatures from 60% of property owners in the impact area.

The speed limit reduction investigation should be complete within 30 days, and you will be contacted with the results.
