Schools are only allowed to nominate up to four men and four women for the prestigious honor, and Alabama was the only NCAA Division I school in the country to have the maximum number of student-athletes earn a place on the district list. Alabama was also the only school to have more than three honorees on either the men's or women's lists across the eight districts. Prior to this year, schools could nominate up to three men and three women.
"This is an extraordinary accomplishment," UA Associate Athletic Director for Student Services Jon Dever said. "To have eight of our student-athletes earn this award and move on to the national ballot is amazing. This is the first year that we've been able to nominate four men and four women for the highly competitive at-large team, so we're very proud to be the first school to have all four nominees for the both the men and women earn this award."
The Crimson Tide's honorees came from six different teams: men's golf, women's golf, gymnastics, men's tennis, women's tennis and men's swimming and diving. The 2013 NCAA and three-time Southeastern Conference Champion men's golf team and the 2014 SEC Champion gymnastics team both placed two athletes on the squad. Senior All-Americans Bobby Wyatt and Cory Whitsett earned the honor from men's golf and senior All-American and NCAA Champion Kim Jacob and sophomore All-American Lauren Beers represent gymnastics on the all-district list.
Senior All-Americans Stephanie Meadow (women's golf), Mary Anne Daines (women's tennis) and Daniil Proskura (men's tennis) as well as senior Brian Carr (men's swimming and diving) also earned all-district honors and, along with Wyatt, Whitsett, Jacob and Beers, will move on to the ballot for Academic All-American recognition.
The at-large teams span the following sports - men's and women's fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rifle, skiing, swimming and diving, tennis and water polo as well as men's volleyball and wrestling and women's bowling, field hockey and rowing.
To be eligible for Academic All-America consideration, a student-athlete must be a varsity starter or key reserve, maintain a cumulative G.P.A. of 3.30 on a scale of 4.00, have reached sophomore athletic and academic standings at his/her current institution and be nominated by his/her sports information director.

Capito slams Obama at Lewis County Lincoln Day Dinner
Congresswoman says the president is losing America
March 4, 2013
U.S. Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va....
The sequester idea may have originated in the White House, but is was PASSED by both the House and Senate. And as for the "it's only 2%", well I hate to tell the Representative, but my pay will go down 20% as soon as the furloughs kick in. That's a very big bite for my family to have to swallow. Both sides need to quit playing the blame game and get their butts back to work!

If they were cutting the federal budget by 50%, foreign aid by 100%, and take a pay cut, we might be on the road to recovery.

Well as usual Capito and a lot of the Republicans are saying Obama is losing America, I don't think they know what Americans they are losing. Women, young people, The Black community, The Hispanic Community , they are what is winning America! Republicans are killing their own platforms by thinking White America, we are a nation of color and it is only going to get bigger in the next few years. So peace out And lets get back to the issues at hand.

I see the lazy bums are whining again. Must have cut the foodstamps. LOL.
Obama hasn't made a GOOD decision for America yet! But he sure is making a whole lot of our enemies in foreign countries wealthier by giving OUR taxpayer money to them. Just THIS week....Sends John Kerry, communist-supporter along with Hanoi Jane Fonda......to Syria with billions and Mali with millions. Yet the democrats keep telling us we can't afford social security even though that is OUR money out of OUR paychecks and NOT theirs. IDIOTS running the asylum too long. We're getting rid of them though, one by one each election. Rockefeller thank GOD is not running again. And McGraw is gone so there's money HE can't steal anymore for his own personal campaign ads.

Mudfish is a term used to describe a white female that exclusively fucks black dudes. Her love of the dirty black dick constitutes the need for her to be addressed as a mudfish. These bitches are usually very large in size and have no respect for their low class white families.
A mudfish only likes the dark meat.

Another name for a homosexual man. Sometimes referred to as a rainbow fish. There are many fish in the sea metaphorically, but mudfish tend to seek out mates of the same sex. They get this title because of the mud-like fecal matter that coats their genitalia after sexual intercourse.
That mudfish really enjoys penis in pooper.

Gees, she's mudfishing that story.
by The Clutzy Einstien October 09, 2008
A variation on the popular shocker, the mudfish incorporates the use of the pointer finger, with the middle finger bent and the pinky and ring fingers stuck straight out. The pointer is inserted into the vagina, while the ring and pinky fingers are inserted into the anus. This name speaks to ones desire to venture into dark muddy places, just as certain fish do.
After I gave her the mudfish, she didn't poo right for a week.

These whimsical "Hillbilly Hounds" figurines, manufactured by the Chic Pottery Co. of Wellsville in the 1940s, were recently donated to the Museum of Ceramics in East Liverpool. The 11 molded ceramic dogs and two novelty items - a fire hydrant and a tree stump - appear to be a complete set, museum director Sarah Webster Vodrey said. They were donated by former East Liverpool resident William Harvey, the son of Chic Pottery founder Dana Knowles Harvey. The pottery was founded around 1937 and operated through the mid-1950s, moving production to Zanesville, Ohio, in 1945, Vodrey said.

LOCKPORT – Mayor Michael W. Tucker said Tuesday he expects the Trek Inc. lease on space at Harrison Place to be signed today.
"It's just a formality," he said.
Trek and the city have agreed on a 10-year lease with a 10-year renewal option on the lower two floors of the three-story, 96,000-square-foot Building 4 at Harrison Place, the former Harrison Radiator plant at Walnut and Washburn streets.
The electronic instrument maker is to relocate from Medina. About 100 jobs are to be created, combining the existing employment at Trek with expected growth in the next few years.
"This was the dream project. You always hope someone will come in and take a whole building," Tucker said, noting that Trek has an option on the third floor of Building 4. "That whole complex will grow off this."
He said Trek will be paying 210 Walnut LLC, the city-controlled private entity that owns the complex, more than $300,000 a year to lease the two stories covered by the deal.
Corporation Counsel John J. Ottaviano said the lease payment is a "not-to-exceed" amount because of the variables involved in covering the bank loan 210 Walnut obtained to pay for interior renovations to accommodate Trek.
Tucker said D.R. Chamberlain, the Lockport contractor handling that work, will meet with its subcontractors today to formally kick off the project.
However, interior demolitions and asbestos removal have been going on for a couple of months.
Trek President Michael Dehn could not be reached to comment Tuesday.
In other matters on today's agenda for the Common Council, Girasole-Penale Appraisal of Niagara Falls is to be hired on a 14-month, $42,500 contract to serve as city assessors once Joseph Macaluso retires on March 28.
Tucker said the length of the contract was chosen to get the city through a scheduled citywide property revaluation set for 2014.
"It's a service Joe [Macaluso] is comfortable with. Tony Girasole has done some work with us before," Tucker said. "It's a professional service, so we don't have to bid it."
Also, the Council is expected to approve employment contracts with the new operators of the water filtration and wastewater treatment plants.
Peter S. Degnan will be in charge of the water plant, and Douglas E. Sibolski will run the sewer plant. Both will be paid $75,000 a year, which is a $12,000 raise over the salaries currently being made by those veteran city employees.
They replace Director of Utilities Paula M. Sattelberg, who retired Dec. 28. She was in charge of both plants, but Tucker said it's apparent that the city can get by without such a post.
Sibolski is chief process operator at the sewer plant and Degnan is chief treatment plant operator at the water plant.

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
Aveo Oncology and Astellas Pharma reported positive new safety and tolerability data from the Phase III Tivo-1 trial evaluating tivozanib as first-line therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The 517-patient study comparing sorafenib with tivozanib therapy showed that patients treated with oral tivozanib stayed on their medication for longer, exhibited fewer Grade 3 and off-target adverse events, and required fewer dose reductions and interruptions. Tivozanib is currently under regulatory review in the U.S.
Efficacy data from Tivo-1 were presented earlier this year and demonstrated that tivozanib therapy resulted in statistically longer progression-free survival compared with sorafenib therapy, both in the overall patient population and among patients who were previously treatment naive.
Aveo signed a worldwide deal with Astellas Pharma in Feburary 2011 to develop and commercialize tivozanib outside Asia for the treatment of a range of cancers. The drug, which is Aveo's lead candidate, is a selective, long half-life inhibitor of all three VEGF receptors. Subject to regulatory clearance, Aveo will head commercialization of the drug in North America, and Astellas will lead commercialization in the EU.
"Our tivozanib development program in RCC is comprehensive and ongoing," states William Slichenmyer, M.D., Aveo's CEO. "Additional analyses from our ongoing biomarker program will be presented at future congresses and our Taurus patient preference study vs. Sutent™ (sunitinib) is now underway."
Aveo and Astellas are in addition conducting clinical trials evaluating tivozanib as combination therapy with other targeted therapies or chemotherapy in patients with RCC, breast, and colorectal cancers. The Baton program is a series of clinical trials initiated by Aveo and Astellas to assess tivozanib biomarkers in solid tumors. In December 2011 an open-label, multicenter, randomized Phase II Baton-CRC clinical trial was initiated, to evaluate tivozanib in combination with modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6), compared with bevacizumab in combination with mFOLFOX6, as first-line therapy in patients with advanced metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). Baton-RCC, a Phase II exploratory biomarker study in patients with advanced RCC,was initiated during early 2011.

"Bam!", "in your face", and "hell yeah", all at the same time. A term that self-congratulates, describes excitement, lets others know the magnificence of the celebration as well as the superiority of the user, and is used as an exclamation of those ideas.
Say "booya!" when you play a trick on someone or beat them at a game, or prove your superiority to others.

A term celebrating the removal of one's balls from an anus. Made popular by the infamous 'Booya' video where a man pulls his penis out of his partner's vagina only to reveal that his balls are engulfed inside her brown eye. As he pulls them out, he exclaims 'booya!'
Julie: Whoa, wait, how are you in both my holes? And where did your balls go?
Ryan: Booya!

The 1920s marked the true beginning of the urban age in American history. The decade brought new forms of communication, the mass adoption of the automobile, and the start of a long transition to a service economy. This book traces the evolution of our cities from this crucial decade to the late 1980s, when three-quarters of the total population was living in metropolitan areas.
One of the book's central concerns is the changing composition of the urban population. The sources of urban growth are also given careful attention. Abbott looks at the arrangements of ethnic and racial groups within districts and neighborhoods, and at conflict and compromise between groups. The evolution of urban politics is also considered as the author shows how government responds to the problems of our cities.

To have an erection. Comes from the words blush (where all your blood goes to your face) and hard (an erection). When an erection occurs the penis is filled with blood, much like blushing.
When Trever saw Corrie, he started blushing hard.

I have to take prescription pain medicine for several chronic diseases that I have that keep me in constant pain. I wish I didn't have to take these medications but I have no choice if I want to have some type of life. I wouldn't be able to get out of bed without them. I do not abuse what I take and it's always taken like doctor orders it to be. I can not fake out my doctor's with the ailments I have. My x-rays, blood tests, MRI's and other tests prove my conditions. But because there are idiots out there who in someway aquire these prescriptions they want everyone who gets them to pay. My doctor takes a lot of crap from the state and he is a doctor who goes by the book and isn't fooled by people. I do know of people who abuse their medications or even sale them and I have turned them in but nothing seems to happen to them or the doctor who prescribes them. There are doctors who don't take insurance of any kind & write out whatever you want when you are paying cash.

"The state has one of the highest rates of drug overdose deaths in the nation."
No doubt. I guess there was no mention of the mass overdose situation in the 1000 block of South Raleigh Street in the early hors Saturday monring. A half-dozen or so were treated or transported to City Hospital for overdoses (many were reported to be unconscientious). Several ambulances from the Martinsburg Fire Dept. as well as Berkeley County were asked to respond to treat the "victims". City PD blocked off the street while the EMS personnel assisted those affected. Not a peep about this in the news. Why?

the country made the materials to produce home made Quaaludes illegal to possess back in the mid 1980's and the Quaalude problem disappeared. The raw ingredients now need prescriptions to be obtained and are very tightly regulated and the drug dissappeared from the streets. sorry but if making pseudoephedrine only available by tightly controlled prescriptions at the expense of the over the counter drug makers; then so be it. Too much money from Bayer, Lederle, Pfizer and the rest remain on the table for them to go back to prescription only. If we are serious about making it almost impossible to produce meth then we have to make the active drug impossible to obtain for illicit use.

"The state has one of the highest rates of drug overdose deaths in the nation." As I pointed out in a comment to a previous editorial (Dec 31) here regarding that issue, the OD death rate is from PRESCRIPTION drugs, not illicit drugs such as crack, meth, or any opiates. Does it make a difference? You bet it does. In part it means focusing law enforcement on pharmacies, druggists, and doctors. But I guess that would upset too many apple carts being pushed around by the proper members of the community.

Maybe we should be asking ourselves: What happened with the War on Alcohol?
Take away a great deal of the profit (and subject the item to normal taxation) and you will see a lot of the effects of the black market disappear.
Then establish a no-frills prison sentence of repaying the victims three times the convicted expense (or for the convict's treatment) before release and you may see people start taking responsibility for their own actions more...

When NHL players were locked out in September, Hecht didn't rush back to his native Germany to play. Instead, he took time to stay with his family in Western New York. When he finally returned to Adler Mannheim, his hometown team, he thrived with Sabres captain Jason Pominville on his right wing.
"I got cleared at the end of the season to play but I took my time, and not because of my head," Hecht said Sunday in First Niagara Center. "I made the decision not to play because I didn't want to be separated from my wife and kids that long. It took a while, until December, to go back to playing. It was the right decision."
Hecht had 13 points in six games for Mannheim and the thin-in-the-middle Sabres signed him to a one-year contract Sunday. The deal has a cap hit of $1 million, well below the $3.525 million Hecht took home last season.
Hecht was in the building early Sunday morning to take his physical. Then he had to wait for his medical papers and the contract to be cleared by the league before he could take the ice about midway through the team's first training camp practice. He entered to a stick-tap salute from several teammates.
"It was fun," Hecht said. "I saw everybody this morning at the physicals and it was a good feeling to be back part of the Sabres."
Hecht, 35, is the senior Sabre in age and games played (556). He's 20th in franchise annals in games, goals (133) and points (331) and said returning to the Sabres was his No. 1 objective this season.
"There was a time during the summer where I didn't think it was going to happen but everything worked out," Hecht said. "The situations we imagined, the best one came out by returning back to Buffalo."
"It happened kind of quickly for us," coach Lindy Ruff said. "But it's something where we felt with the depth of the organization, in the short season and where our center men were at, it was important for us to get him in."
Hecht figures to be a third- or fourth-line center, depending on the Sabres' decision regarding No. 1 draft pick Mikhail Grigorenko.
Hecht had a major concussion relapse after a hit last January in St. Louis. Three days later, he had what Ruff described as a "mental breakdown" in the locker room during the morning skate prior to a game in New Jersey. He did not play again the rest of the season, finishing with four goals in just 22 games. He had averaged 17 goals and 71 games the previous seven years.
Hecht admitted he was nervous when he made his debut in Germany last month but quickly felt comfortable on the ice for the first time in two years.
"The expectations I had set for myself were low. I didn't play for 10-11 months," he said. "To come back to a pretty good league that had already played about 30 games, midseason form. I stepped in there and I didn't think it would go that well. It came back right away."
At this point in his career, Hecht's role is clearly seen as a stabilizer, a guy to play 10-15 minutes a game and to win faceoffs and kill penalties.
"We'll see what happens, see what the best situation is for Buffalo," Hecht said. "I know the game. I've been in the system for a long time. Whatever they want me to do, I'll do it."

Legally Speaking - Your papers, please
Dear Readers, (
Two weeks ago, in From Dodge to Tombstone, we had a letter from a reader in Fort Collins, Colorado, who wrote to ask about the interpretation of Colorado's two abreast law being advanced by Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden in his Bull's Eye blog post, Cyclists and Dodge City. Because Sheriff Alderden's interpretation of the two abreast law merited a column to itself, I promised that I would revisit Cyclists and Dodge City to discuss what the Sheriff had to say about carrying I.D. in Larimer County, as well as the Sheriff's take on protecting the rights of cyclists. So today, we return to Larimer County for another look at Colorado law and Sheriff Alderden's unique take on the law.
Bob (
In Colorado, if a cyclist is stopped by a law enforcement officer for "probable cause"—that is, if the officer observed the cyclist committing a traffic violation, or otherwise has "probable cause" to believe that a violation has occurred—the cyclist must produce satisfactory evidence of identification or risk arrest, at the discretion of the officer. Now, just because an officer has observed a violation doesn't mean that the officer is necessarily going to issue a citation. Many officers will issue a verbal warning if they feel the circumstances warrant a warning rather than a citation. However, if the officer has probable cause, and decides to issue a citation instead of a verbal warning, the officer is entitled to demand that you produce "satisfactory evidence of identification."
As readers of Bicycling & the Law know, "satisfactory evidence of identification" means either a driver's license, or it's "functional equivalent"—for example, a state-issued I.D. card, a military I.D. card, or a passport. The features that make an identification card the functional equivalent of a driver's license are that it is 1) government-issued; 2) serially-numbered; and 3) includes your photograph. Now, for some cyclists, the requirement to produce I.D. is a bit of a cognitive hurdle to clear—after all, we don't need a license to ride a bike, so why should we be required to carry one? The answer: You're not required to carry a driver's license when you ride, but if you do violate a law, you can be required to produce "satisfactory evidence of identification," under threat of arrest.
Which brings us back to the officer's demand that you produce I.D. In Colorado, if the officer is issuing a citation, the officer is entitled to demand that you produce satisfactory evidence of identification. On the other hand, if the officer is not going to issue a citation, you are not required to produce identification. The problem is, how do you know if the officer is going to issue a citation? You don't. The officer may have probable cause to cite you, but may be stopping you with the intent to issue a verbal warning only. In fact, the officer may not even have probable cause to stop you—you may be stopped, for example, under the lesser standard of "reasonable suspicion," under which an officer is entitled to briefly detain you to investigate, but which does not entitle the officer to place you under arrest (and as readers of Bicycling & the Law know, a traffic citation is a "non-custodial arrest."). If you're being stopped under "reasonable suspicion," the law requires you to tell the officer your name and address, but the law does not require you to produce identification unless you have your identification with you. So if you don't know if you're going to be cited, and the officer is asking you to produce identification, what should you do? Should you comply? Should you refuse? The answer is really up to you. I'm a firm believer in upholding our 4th Amendment right to be free from unreasonable search and seizure, and feel that those who risk their personal liberty in defense of personal liberty are owed a debt of gratitude by us all. However, if you do refuse, and the officer has probable cause to arrest you, you might find yourself under custodial arrest and on your way to jail. And if the officer was only intending to issue a verbal warning, being "uncooperative" might convince the officer to turn the warning into an arrest, at which point you will be required to produce I.D. or face arrest.
So that's the law in Colorado. How does that match up with the Sheriff's interpretation? Here's what the Sheriff had to say in Cyclists and Dodge City:
Many have taken to not carrying identification, so when asked to identify themselves for purposes of determining if there are any outstanding warrants (which we always check), it isn't unreasonable to determine their county of residence. (Another warning – When issuing a citation for a violation, if we can't verify the identification of the cyclist, they WILL be taken to jail pending identification and their bicycles impounded. This isn't a threat. Its the way we operate.)
That seems like a pretty good match, actually. He's saying—well, actually, he's implying—that on a reasonable suspicion stop, or if the officer has probable cause, but is only issuing a warning, they will ask for your identification. Under these circumstances, the law requires you to correctly provide your name and address, and to provide the officer with your identification if you are carrying it. He's also saying that if you are being issued a citation, you will be arrested if the officer can't verify your identification. Now technically, "verification" doesn't necessarily mean that you must produce "satisfactory evidence of identification," but the on-the-ground reality is that, absent some highly unusual circumstances in which your identity could be verified in some other way, if you are asked for I.D. and don't provide it, you will likely be arrested. That's almost consistent with the law—almost, but not quite.
The problem with the Sheriff's approach to enforcement of this law is that he's not authorized by the State Legislature to order his deputies to arrest anybody who doesn't produce identification. Rather, the Legislature has authorized individual officers to arrest, at their discretion, any person who is stopped under probable cause and who fails to produce satisfactory evidence of identification. When the Sheriff sets a department policy that all cyclists who fail to produce I.D. must be arrested, he is usurping the Legislature's authority, and that is an authority that the Sheriff does not have under Colorado law.
Since issuing the warning that cyclists would be arrested if they fail to produce I.D.s, the Sheriff clarified his policy at a meeting with Dan Grunig of Bicycle Colorado, Jeff Morell of Bike Fort Collins, State Senator Greg Brophy, and State Representative Don Marostica: If a cyclist is being cited, doesn't have identification, and verbally provides a name that is unverifiable through the Larimer County database, that cyclist will be arrested. According to Bicycle Colorado, "It is our understanding this is a consistent practice throughout Colorado's law enforcement community."
Protecting the Rights of Cyclists
Despite reading cyclists the riot act in Cyclists and Dodge City, Sheriff Alderden did make an attempt at even-handedness in his enforcement of the law:
"To the motoring public, this does not mean its open season on cyclists. We also have received some complaints about motorists throwing objects at cyclists or harassing them. We will be equally aggressive in defending the rights of the cyclists to share the road as long as done legally and responsibly."
Nevertheless, despite this attempt at even-handedness, the Sheriff's interpretation of the law leaves something to be desired. Under Colorado law, cyclists have all of the rights and applicable responsibilities that motorists have. This means that cyclists have as much right to use the road as motorists have—in fact, I believe that cyclists' claim to the road is greater. The right to travel is a Constitutional right, while driving is a privilege that can be revoked by the state. Thus, while cyclists enjoy a Constitutional right to travel (and thereby, a Constitutional right to the road), motorists use the road only by permission of the state. But even if cyclists had no greater claim to the road than motorists have, they would still have an equal right to the road under Colorado law.
Which brings us to the Sheriff's analysis. Although the Sheriff promises to defend the rights of cyclists to share the road (and note that he advances the notion that cyclists have a right to "share" the road, rather than a right to the road), he makes that promise contingent upon cyclists sharing the road "legally and responsibly"—whatever that means. This is an ambiguous statement at best. Is the Sheriff promising to defend individual cyclists' "right to share the road" only if all cyclists do so "legally and responsibly"? Or is he promising to defend individual cyclists' "right to share the road" only if the individual cyclist is doing so "legally and responsibly"?
The Sheriff's meaning is ambiguous, but it's also troubling, regardless of what he meant. A cyclist's right to use the road does not depend upon the cyclist riding "legally and responsibly," just as a motorist's privilege to use the road continues to be in force even when the motorist violates a traffic law (at least until the state suspends or revokes the motorist's license). So if the individual motorist continues to enjoy the privilege of using the road, even after being cited by one of Larimer County's finest, why would Sheriff Alderden apply a different standard to cyclists?
This interpretation of the law is troubling in its own right, but it's also troubling because the Sheriff's interpretation of the two abreast law is flawed, and thus, his perception of which cyclists are not obeying the law—and thus, not "deserving" of the protection of the law—is also flawed.
Under Sheriff Alderden's interpretation of his duties, he is implying that one of two equally disturbing policies is in effect in Larimer County: The first meaning he implies is that he will not enforce the laws against assault and battery unless he believes that cyclists are in compliance with the traffic laws—and remember, it's ambiguous as to whether he means the individual cyclist must be in compliance with the law, or all cyclists must be in compliance with the law. If this is the policy he implies is in effect, he is saying that if cyclists commit minor traffic violations he will not enforce the laws against assault and battery; thus, in addition to conditioning enforcement of the laws against assault and battery upon cyclists observing the traffic laws, he is also elevating the seriousness of the minor traffic violation above the seriousness of the assault and battery. The second meaning he implies is that he will be the arbiter of which users of the road have enforceable rights, and under what conditions. If this is the policy he implies is in effect, he has usurped the Legislature's authority to make that determination. Whichever implied policy is in effect, they are equally disturbing, and astonishing, and in either case, one would have to ask "is the same policy in effect for motorists who break the law"?
As with the I.D. requirements, Sheriff Alderden issued something of a clarification of his policy on defending the rights of cyclists at the June 9th meeting with Dan Grunig of Bicycle Colorado, Jeff Morell of Bike Fort Collins, State Senator Greg Brophy, and State Representative Don Marostica: If a motorist is driving aggressively, the Sheriff's Department will investigate. The instructions for filing a complaint are very specific—you must provide a license plate number, or the Department will be unable to identify the vehicle, and you should also be prepared to provide the Sheriff's Department with the location and direction of travel, a description of the vehicle and the driver, and a description of the aggressive driving being demonstrated. Additionally, you should be prepared to fill out a written report of the incident, and be willing to testify if charges are filed. Full instructions for reporting aggressive drivers are available at Bicycle Colorado's Larimer County Update Page.
Well, (riding) pards, that's it for another week. Happy trails,(Bob

Life Flight lands at the scene of an accident on SR 4 Sunday.
Call was not injured. He was cited with failure to control, according to the patrol.
Walter Call, the driver's nephew and a passenger, was taken to Bucyrus Community Hospital. Another passenger was flown by Life Flight from the scene to Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center.
A call was placed to State Highway Patrol to confirm the man's identity Sunday evening.
Personnel from Attica-Venice-Reed fire, Attica EMS, Bloomville EMS, the county's Echo unit, Norfolk Southern, Seneca County Sheriff's Office and State Highway Patrol responded to the accident. A Seneca County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman said it was reported at 3:24 p.m.
Train traffic was stopped as crews worked at the scene, which was located near railroad tracks.


text: My son recently ran over debris thrown on to his carriageway by a major accident on the M1. His car was damaged by the stones etc thrown over the carriageway from the other side. He reported the accident to the police and was given an incident number. He noticed the following day that 2 of the tyres had partially deflated. The bodywork was repaired but Direct Line have said that the repairers inflated the 2 tyres and they have stayed up so they are ok to drive on. I have told him not to accept the car back as something must have caused the tyres to deflate. We have reached an impasse with Direct Line as both sides have different positions on the roadworthiness of these two tyres. Any advice?

A minivan is a type of van that is designed to transport passengers rather than cargo. Minivans make especially convenient family vehicles, so they've managed to retain popularity even though their box-like exteriors aren't considered to be especially stylish. And because minivans cater to a specific demographic, they aren't cheap, either. Mid range and high end minivans are usually loaded with advanced safety features and a lot of electronics, since the auto manufacturers' design teams know that a lot of parents are willing to splurge to keep their families as safe as possible, and to have the option of entertainment on particularly long trips. Other notable minivan features, such as the seating arrangement, are more conducive to comfortable family travel. Options such as Chrysler's "Swivel 'N Go" removable table and rotating seat configuration, inspired by camper vans and other recreational vehicles, make for more comfortable long distance travel than in a traditional passenger vehicle.
One way to save some cash when buying a minivan is to consider buying a preowned model. There are some bargains to be had on used minivans, for buyers who shop carefully. Buying a used minivan means it might be necessary to make certain sacrifices, like waiting a little longer to find a local listing with the right combination of options and features, but the savings that come from not buying new are usually worth it to families on a tight budget. Most late model used minivans on the market will still be up to date on safety features and technology options, so families upgrading from an older vehicle will still enjoy the feeling of buying a newer vehicle. A lot of families and other prospective buyers will find that diligent research will result in a great buy on a preowned minivan, perfect for the next long road trip.

on May 6, 2013 - 11:52 PM
Whoever wins today will spend the next three years overseeing a $900 million public institution responsible for educating more than 30,000 children, many of whom are failing.
Voters who can't tell the candidates without a scorecard may need the primer that follows in order to cast well-informed ballots amid all the chaos. But first, the latest update.
There are now 13 candidates running for six open seats on the nine-member School Board. What's confusing is that three of them are write-in candidates, and two of those – the Rev. Kinzer M. Pointer and incumbent Rosalyn L. Taylor – sprouted up in just the last few days.
"Holy cow, this is a mess," said Democratic Commissioner Dennis E. Ward of the Erie County Board of Elections.
Pointer's and Taylor's candidacies open up unexpected battles for two East Side seats that had previously been uncontested and would otherwise yield low voter turnout.
Pointer, a former president of the District Parent Coordinating Council, is conducting a write-in campaign in the Ferry District, where incumbent Sharon Belton-Cottman had been running unopposed. Pointer served as an appointed School Board member in 2007.
Meanwhile, East District incumbent Taylor has belatedly decided to fight for her seat as a write-in candidate supported by the teachers union. In mid-April, she bowed out of the race after hundreds of signatures on her nominating petitions were ruled invalid. She was thrown off the ballot, leaving candidate Theresa A. Harris-Tigg unopposed.
A few days ago, Taylor changed her mind.
The write-in campaigns, described by some observers as stealth efforts to shift the balance of the board, reflect the core struggle for control of the board this year.
That struggle has included nasty mailers – thought to be sent by the state teachers union – linking candidates who aren't even running in the same districts, further heightening voter confusion.
What has unfolded is a high-stakes battle that places the Buffalo Teachers Federation on one side and leaders of the district's parent group on the other. Various business interests have also weighed in, often backing the same candidates that the parent leaders support.
What follows are questions and answers to help voters understand the Election Day landscape:
Q: When are the polls open?
A: From 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. today.
Q: Where is your polling place?
A: The same place you cast your ballot in any other local, state and national elections. If you don't know where that is, you can visit the Board of Elections website at www.elections.erie.gov and click on the "Find Your Polling Place" icon.
You also can call the Board of Elections directly to get this information at 858-8891.
Q: Who is up for election to the Buffalo School Board?
A: Six of nine seats are up for election. The six seats are district seats that cover specific parts of the city. The other three seats, up for election next year, are citywide at-large seats.
In addition to the contests in the East and Ferry districts, incumbent Mary Ruth Kapsiak is running against Bryon J. McIntyre in the Central District; Wendy S. Mistretta and Susan L. Gillick are challenging incumbent Jason M. McCarthy in the North District; incumbent Ralph R. Hernandez is waging a write-in campaign against challenger James M. Sampson in the West District; and parent Adrian F. Harris is running against former gubernatorial nominee Carl P. Paladino in South Buffalo's Park District.
Contrary to what might be implied by the confusing, negative mailers received by voters across the city, Paladino is a candidate only in the Park District. He is not running citywide.
Q: What are the election district boundaries, and how can you find out which district you're in?
A: A detailed district map, provided by the Board of Elections, is on the School Zone blog and available on The Buffalo News website at www.buffalonews.com. The map is also available on the Board of Elections website. Voters can also find out what district they live in by calling the Board of Elections at 858-8891.
Q: How do you vote for write-in candidates?
A. In this election, there are three candidates – one each in the West, Ferry and East districts – whose names will not be printed on the official ballot but who have said they are actively campaigning for board seats.
The write-in candidates include Hernandez in the West District, Taylor in the East District and Pointer in the Ferry District.
If you live in one of these three districts and want to vote for one of these candidates, you must write the candidate's name in the designated "Write-In" box on your paper ballot and fill in the write-in bubble. The spelling doesn't have to be perfect, but the name must be recognizable. Poll workers can provide detailed instructions on how to do this.
Hernandez has stated that he will have workers outside the West District polling places handing out stamps with his name on it. It is legal for voters to stamp their ballots with a candidate's name instead of writing it.
Q: Who has endorsed which candidates?
A: The BTF has endorsed Taylor, Kapsiak, Hernandez, Harris and Gillick.
New York State United Teachers has endorsed Taylor, Kapsiak, Hernandez, Gillick and Belton-Cottman. NYSUT has not endorsed Harris, as he was not seeking its support, but has advised teachers that voting for him is "a good idea."
The Buffalo Niagara Partnership has endorsed Sampson.
Q: How can you learn more about each candidate's background and platform?
A: The News has run individual, daily profiles on each candidate since last week. They are all available on School Zone blog, which is visible from The News' home page at www.buffalonews.com.
All other in-depth reports on the board elections are also available on the School Zone blog.
Q: What do School Board members do, and how much do they earn?
A: Members of the Buffalo Board of Education hire and evaluate the superintendent, approve district policies and set district priorities. They oversee a budget of more than $900 million.
School Board members do not control how much money the state or city gives to the district, but they often lobby for funding and help make decisions on how that money is spent.
Each board member is paid $5,000 a year.
Q: When will you know the election results?
A: The News plans to list unofficial results on its website as the poll results come in and report winners online and in Wednesday's final print edition.
However, because three of the six seats involve write-in candidates and low voter turnout can result in slim margins of victory, final results for all races may not be known until May 15, when an official tally is completed by the Board of Elections.

Open source code hosting comparisons
A code hosting comparison for open source projects
If you're starting a new open source project, or open sourcing some existing code, you'll need a publicly accessible location for the version control system holding your code (if you're not planning on setting up a publicly accessible VCS, reconsider; no public source control is a red flag to potential contributors). You could set up your own repository hosting, but with so many companies and groups offering existing setups and services, why not use one of those and save yourself some time? Here's an overview of some of the more popular options.
The granddaddy of code hosting sites, SourceForge has been around since 1999. It offers support for every popular revision control system, from CVS on up to Git. Most modern code hosting services are tightly integrated experiences, presenting a single UI with source code browsing, issue tracking, wikis, etc. While SourceForge is moving in this direction, they still keep some of their old kitchen sink philosophy, allowing projects to run phpBB forums, Wordpress blogs, or anything else they might want.
While still young compared to SourceForge, GitHub has become the de facto host for open source projects, with over 4.2 million repositories at the time of writing. GitHub's strength is their tagline, 'Social Coding'. On GitHub, it's trivial to make a copy of another developer's project, make changes to that project, and then submit those changes using GitHub's pull request system.
Given the number of developers already on GitHub, and how easy it makes submitting contributions, if you're starting a new open source project and hoping for community contributions, use GitHub. Unless you don't like Git.
Google Code
Google Code Project Hosting is one of the most minimal code hosting options available, which may be appealing to anyone who already has their own infrastructure setup. In addition to offering Subversion, Mercurial, or Git repository hosting, Google Code provides wikis and simple issue tracking. The interface design is sparse, and does not provide the social hooks seen throughout GitHub.
Gitorious is noteworthy for being one of the few open source code hosting repositories that's actually open source itself. You're free to download and run the software yourself, or take advantage of their public hosting. They offer Git hosting, wikis, and a merge request system for community contributions (though the interface seems clunkier than the high mark set by GitHub).
Just as Git was squaring off against Mercurial for distributed version control dominance, GitHub was facing Bitbucket. Bitbucket began as a Mercurial only hosting service, but a year after its acquisition by Atlassian, it began offering Git support as well.
Bitbucket is very similar to Github. It offers pull requests, a highly visible fork button on each repository, issues, and wikis. One thing Bitbucket does offer that Github does not is unlimited private repositories. If you want to store your family's secret chocolate chip cookie recipe, Bitbucket will let you do it for free (you'll only need to pay after sharing the recipe with five other family members).
There are many more sites that provide free hosting. I've focused on a few of my favorites (this comparison is also avaliable on Github). If you're looking for something special (perhaps GNU Arch support?), or if you're just curious to see all the options, Wikipedia has a great comparison table.
6 Comments
It is nice to see a high level comparison of code hosting resources, but one thing worth pointing out is that if you use Git (or similar DVCS) the decision of where to host becomes less of an issue. It is so easy to mirror code that we tend to push our repositories to several services, in the days of CVS and Subversion this simply wasn't possible and moving to another host was quite a task. Thanks for the round up!
Why wasn't CodePlex evaluated?
I don't know if it's why, but the CodePlex Terms Of Use have a "scum clause" where they'll lay claim to any images associated with your project, saying they can print them on a coffee mug if they want. "(including, by way of example, and not as a limitation, making prints and gift items which include such Images)"
GitHub is a good hosting organization, but note that their software is *NOT* open source software (git is, but not everything that comes with github, making it harder to move out of github). In contrast, the current version of SourceForge and gitorious are both OSS. If that's important to you, SourceForce and gitorious are perhaps better choices.
Hi James,
Good post, very interesting.
There is other ways to support open source community. For example, Clinker is an integrated Software Development Ecosystem based on open source tools.
I invite you to read this initiative:
Unfortunately, all the sites mentioned include in their Terms of Service clauses requiring the users to provide (and pay for) full indemnification for anything that might happen due to the use of the site. In an age of increasing lawsuits over IP stuff which might seem obvious, a single user having to pay for all expenses of the hosting company is a big risk.
Does anyone know of a site with more user-friendly terms?

Green Day Hope To 'Force Change' By Sponsoring Prom For Gay Teen
Lance Bass will also pitch in after a Mississippi high school barred Constance McMillen from her prom.
Constance McMillen, a student at Itawamba Agricultural High School in Fulton, Mississippi, made headlines earlier this year when she was barred from attending senior prom with her longtime girlfriend. When McMillen persisted, the school board announced it was canceling prom entirely.
McMillen — assisted by the American Civil Liberties Union — sued the school district. In a preliminary ruling, a federal court found that the Itawamba County District had violated her First Amendment right to freedom of expression, though the judge stopped short of ordering the school to reinstate the prom.
And while the case is still pending, McMillen has found herself some rather unlikely allies, including Green Day, who, along with stars like Lance Bass and "Iron Chef" star Cat Cora, have agreed to sponsor (with the American Humanist Association) a "second-chance" prom, to be held May 8 in Tupelo, Mississippi. It was the kind of thing that the guys in Green Day knew they wanted to get involved in the second they heard McMillen's story — even if they didn't exactly have a ton of experience when it came to proms.
"Well, I remember when the news broke about how ... they canceled the prom because she wanted to bring her partner to the prom," Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong said. "And we were talking about it, we were at the theater [for rehearsals of the 'American Idiot' musical] and I remember [bassist] Mike [Dirnt] said, 'Why don't we just put on the prom?' and I was like, 'That's a great idea. Why not?' The weird thing is, I never even went to my prom."
"My high school was a little more open-minded," Dirnt said. "There were a lot of girls dressed in tuxedoes showing up for the prom. I didn't live in Mississippi, though. Sometimes you've got to force change."
And when MTV News caught up with McMillen on the red carpet for the GLAAD Media Awards on Saturday in Los Angeles, she was grateful for all the attention she's received. But the teen says she's just another girl trying to do what's right.
"I think you should stand up for what you believe in, and that's all I did," McMillen said. "I couldn't control what the school board did or what other people do. ... All I did was stand up for what I thought was right, and I think other people should do that too."

Information about the product, payment and shipment/delivery process were thoroughly explained. I am so glad that I found/called Total Body Experts today! Thanks again Jared!

Are you ready for the DKNY Cupcake?
You read that right. The quintessential American fashion label has come out with its latest product, it's not going to be a reinvention of the brand's ever-popular wrap dress. Instead, DKNY has released an exclusive, one-of-a-kind cupcake recipe.
The DKNY Sweet Delicious range of fragrances, named after mouth-watering pastries (Tart Key Lime, Creamy Meringue and Pink Macaron), have inspired a cupcake recipe whipped up in partnership with famed pastry chef and confectionery superstar Johnny Iuzzuni.
"For me, the creation of food and fragrances are one in the same. Our sense of taste and smell are so closely linked," Iuzzuni explains. "Once I studied these scents and the key ingredients, such as kumquats, orange zest and rose, I just knew I had to bring the delectable flavors to life and create the world's first fragrance-inspired dessert."
Iuzzuni's Sweet Delicious Cupcake in a sugar-flecked confectionery masterpiece – this is definitely not your grandma's homespun recipe but a gourmet spin-off on the simple baked treat. Picture a mini-sized almond cake infused with orange curd, piped with rose water meringue, topped with a candied kumquat and crystallized rose petals, then sprinkled with fresh pomegranate seeds. It's an aromatic and totally tantalizing treat for your nose and tastebuds.
The DKNY Sweet Delicious fragrance range will be available locally from May 2012 exclusively at Paris Gallery Dubai Mall. The price of each bottle is AED 200.
