Picks and Pans Main: Hot New Music for Free!
Go to People.com/free to Download Songs from Some of Country's Biggest Names and Rising Stars. It's Easy!
Three-time Grammy winner Trisha Yearwood released her 12th album, Heaven, Heartache and the Power of Love, last November.
DOWNLOAD: "They Call It Falling for a Reason," an energetic tune about the ups and downs of chasing love.
HER INSPIRATION: The singer, 43, didn't write the song, but she's lived its lyrics. "I haven't always been stupidly happy," says Yearwood, who's been married to Garth Brooks for 2½ years. "I've had that feeling of falling in love, getting my heart broken and breaking someone else's heart. It's easy to put yourself in that place."
Lead vocalist Ryder Lee and lead guitarist and songwriter Stokes Nielson met in a church band as teenagers. Years later they joined forces with guitarist Manny Medina, keyboard player Andrew Nielson and drummer Jeff Potter. The group's fifth album, Holler Back, hits stores Aug. 26.
DOWNLOAD: "Holler Back," an uptempo, get-up-and-dance song that celebrates a small town's equivalent of the urban nightclub scene, complete with lyrics like "all the cowgirls shaking their sassafras."
THEIR INSPIRATION: "I just wanted to get back to the simplicity of those Friday nights growing up, where it's just my buddies and some cowgirls, and we all went out to the pecan orchards and just had a party," says Nielson, 32, who is a native of rural Georgia. "The song is a celebration of getting back to country life."
The former lead singer of Alabama has a debut solo album, One on One, out Nov. 11.
Download: "Like I Never Broke Her Heart," a rueful song about a guy whose ex has moved on.
His Inspiration: Owen, 58, was drawn to "the great story," he says. " 'She loves you like I never broke her heart': I'd never heard anyone say it that way."
After releasing three albums with Trick Pony, Newfield left the band in 2006 to pursue a solo career.
DOWNLOAD: "What Am I Waiting For?" an uplifting, go-get-'em tune about following your dreams.
HER INSPIRATION: Newfield, 37, wrote the song with her Trick Pony bandmates Keith Burns and Ira Dean. "We were all not having as much fun in the band," she says, but notes that the song is not mean-spirited: "It's really sort of an ode to them. This is a happy song."
Sisters Becky, Emily and Joanna Robertson have musical roots; their folks (Mom's a singer; Dad's a keyboardist) toured with Waylon Jennings.
Download: "Different Breed," an anthem about a woman living off the beaten path.
Inspiration: "We're not perfect girls," says Emily, 23. "We don't have perfect hair, our toenails aren't always painted. A lot of women can relate to that."
The Greenville, Miss., native describes the soulful sound on his third album, Indianola, as a "return home" to his Delta roots.
DOWNLOAD: "You're My Life," a ballad dedicated to a longtime love.
HIS INSPIRATION: After finally being able to get back to his family following a monthlong gig on the road, "I just started thinking about my wife and three kids and was moved by how happy I was to be home," says Azar, 44. "As sappy as it sounds, I started writing these verses."
The only child of famed country artists Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter—he spent his toddlerhood in a crib on his parents' tour bus—Jennings spent several years fronting southern rock band Stargunn before going solo. The new dad to 8-month-old daughter Alabama with actress Drea de Matteo released his latest album, The Wolf, last fall.
DOWNLOAD: "Blood from a Stone," an angsty ballad about moving on from a destructive relationship.
HIS INSPIRATION: The song is based on "a friendship of mine," says Jennings, 29, who wrote the lyrics after a falling-out. When it comes to negative people, "you realize that you've got to cut them out of your life or they're going to drag you down," he says.
Zac Brown played in bars for years before assembling his band, which includes bassist John Hopkins, fiddler Jimmy De Martini, guitarist Coy Bowles and drummer Chris Fryar.
DOWNLOAD: "Chicken Fried," a song celebrating those simple pleasures of American life like cold beer, jeans that "fit just right"—and, of course, fried chicken.
THEIR INSPIRATION: Brown, 30, says the band "wrote a list of all the things we love. No matter what your background or religion or social class, the things that are in that song are on a human level."
After playing Nashville bars and writing songs like "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk" and "Give It Away," Alabama native Johnson just released his second album, That Lonesome Song.
DOWNLOAD: The autobiographical "Between Jennings and Jones."
HIS INSPIRATION: "I just went out to tell part of my story—about why I moved to Nashville," says Johnson, 33, who got the song's hook from a friend who pointed out that Johnson's first album was on the CD racks between Waylon Jennings and George Jones.
The former Miss California left the West Coast for Nashville's country flavor. Besides writing songs for the likes of the Wreckers, she's put out her second album, Thankful.
Download: "Kick the Jukebox," a lament about boring pop music.
Her Inspiration: On a drive between Orange County and Los Angeles, "I was stuck in traffic, flipping between stations, and couldn't find anything inspiring," says Hanson, 34. "The song came from that."

Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial beginning of summer vacation season.
Although gas is cheaper right now, the recession has caused some families to rethink their travel plans.
Many Americans are opting for the cheaper "staycation," simply enjoying time off at home.
Those who are taking a trip will pay about the same as last year for rental cars and hotels. But travelers will pay more for gasoline since the price is still up 50 cents a gallon more than last year.
Plane tickets are also more expensive than last year.
"Domestic air fares have gone up a little over 10 percent and continue to climb. And international air fares have gone up anywhere from 30 to 50 percent," explained travel expert Rick Seaney, co-founder of Farecompare.com.
When searching for the least expensive plane ticket, experts say to keep this in mind -- the earlier you book your flight, the cheaper it will be.
Also, when comparing prices remember that some airlines charge hefty fees for luggage at the airport, so be sure to purchase your ticket Tuesday afternoon.
"The reason for this is airlines typically file their sales on Monday night," Seaney explained. "And during the morning, all the other airlines scramble to match. So just after lunch Eastern time is the perfect time to shop, where you have the maximum number of cheap seats."
On the up side, if you're bound for Europe, your money will stretch further than in past years. In the past six months, the dollar has increased 10 percent against the euro and 5 percent against the pound.

IRMO, S.C. - A 45-year-old Chapin woman has admitted she embezzled nearly $2 million from the doctor's office where she worked.
The State newspaper reports that Chandra Padgett pleaded guilty Friday to wire fraud and attempting to evade taxes.
Authorities say Padgett was working as the office manager for Advanced Pain Therapies when she stole the money, beginning in January 2010. They say she then created a fraudulent shell company and used the money to take vacations and pay personal credit card bills.
Padgett faces up to 25 years in prison when she's sentenced later.

text: Six kilometres west of Húsafell on Route 518, the waterfalls of Hraunfossar and Barnafoss are two of the best-known natural features in Iceland. Although both are on the Hvítá, it's Hraunfossar (Lava Falls) that make for the best photographs; however, don't expect thundering white torrents – the falls here are gentle cascades of bright, turquoise water, emerging from under the moss-covered lava to tumble down a series of rock steps into the river. From here, a track leads upstream to Barnafoss (Children's Falls), which is far more lively – it was here that two children fell to their deaths when crossing a narrow stone arch that once spanned the river. A modern footbridge now affords an excellent view of the water churning violently as it channels through the ravine below.

I can't stop looking at Facebook and realizing how crap, to put it bluntly, my life has been in comparison to other people of the same age. Yes, I know some will say it is all fake, done for show, you don't know what is going on behind the scenes and that is true. But it doesn't make me feel better.
One girl I have on Facebook, who I really disliked at school (she was SO false and *****y), got a first class degree, just secured a really good graduate job, is getting married to her childhood sweetheart, seems to have tons of money and goes on holidays abroad every few months. Her and her fiance have their own flat and are trying for a baby in a couple of years. In comparison to me (no proper job, no money, no confidence, no real friends, certainly no relationships, still very much live at home) it is like we are poles apart and yes, I can't help but feel jealous. I guess I envisioned (perhaps dreamed would be a better way of putting it) having a similar kind of "ideal" life and it never really materialized. I'm stuck in a rut while everyone else is moving on.
Anyone else feel the same?
Comparing yourself to others and feeling inadequate?

I feel you. im exactly the same. im forever doomed to be depressed. im gona choose to walk around in a cloud of doom. I have the ****test luck in the world in everything. my fate is doom. the only thing I can embrace the **** that is your life. this is whats meant for you.. Im giving up. whats the point anymore..
Excuse me for being so blunt, but who cares!? The only person in charge of your life is yourself. Comparing yourself to others doesn't achieve anything other than making you feel worse. Focus on feeling better rather than complaining; move on!
I agree with above blunt person. One person has the capability to change things and it is you. If you need help finding motivation this is a fair place to ask, but it would garner far more productive replies if it was a request for help not a complaint about nothing in particular.

see the thing is when you've had the worst luck in the world all your life and nothing has ever gone right. you sink into a depression cycle and start looking at other people's lives and start comparing yourself to them and feeling ****... I've got no warmth left in me only cold seas.
Everyone experiences depression. What differentiates those who seem to do better from those who seem to do worse is how you deal with it afterwards. You have the power to put things right, and if you really don't think you do for whatever reason, go and see a professional counselor and get to the bottom of things. Their job is to help you and they'll do a lot better than a bunch of randoms on a forum.

Agricultural Biotechnology: An Economic Perspective
Stay Connected
Agricultural Economic Report No. (AER-687) 59 pp, May 1994
The development of agricultural biotechnology offers the opportunity to increase crop production, lower farming costs, improve food quality and safety, and enhance environmental quality. This report describes the economic, scientific, and social factors that will influence the future of biotechnology in agriculture. The supply of biotechnology innovations and products will be affected by public policies and by expectations of producer and consumer demand for the products. The demand for biotechnology by farmers and food processors is derived from the expected profitability of using the technology as an input to production. Ultimately, the use of biotechnology in the farm sector will depend on consumer demand for the biotechnology-derived agricultural product.

Are there any vets out there who have had a bullet, 50 caliber or otherwise, pass by them closely? What was that like?

Yes, but I was in an airplane most every time, so I guess that doesn't count.
You want to know if anybody's experienced that with nothing but a foot or two of air between them and the bullet, right?
Subsonic bullets aren't what you're asking about either, I presume.
Supersonic rifle bullets are what you're asking about, am I right?
Best I can tell you is to get the original "Forrest Gump" movie and pay close attention to the firefight scene in Vietnam. Otherwise, you'll need a good friend who's a good shot with a good rifle, a lot of guts, very little sense, a long range, and a lot of stupidity to see for yourself. On second thought, go the "Forrest Gump" route.... :D

I was almost shot with an indeterminate deer rifle once. I'm guessing .270 or 30-06 just because it is what is most common around these parts.
I do not know exactly how close it came. I had just stepped out of my car and stood up when I heard something buzz past my ear. The roof of the car vibrated. Scared the heck out of me.
No wind rush. No concussion or anything like that. Heard the buzz noise before I heard the shot.
January 6, 2003, 06:46 PM
Well, I've pulled targets at our 600 yard range - A coupla feet over my head, meow still get a serious enough sonic crack to make you wear plugs.

Well, I am uniquely qualified to address this. One fine foggy day in Kuwait, as I sat in the turret of my TOW-equipped Hummer, I was treated not only to the high-pitched singing of mortar shrapnel as it flew past my head, but also the dull "chunk-chunk-chunk" of outgoing .50-cal right over the top of my vehicle. Our platoon sergeant had stopped behind us and was shooting over our heads, about 6 feet tops. What he was shooting at, I have no idea. (To answer the question, what was it like: Startling.)
I had never heard any of this killer .50-cal stuff until I read it on TFL. I can report no ill atmospheric effects, and I still have my head. And my hearing (the only thing I heard was the report of the gun). Although I was a little bit pissed at the Gunny, understandably.
January 6, 2003, 06:57 PM
Saw the little green tracers but I didn't stop to listen and appreciate the neat sounds they made.

Trespasser in 1996 obviously did not want to have picture taken with telephoto lense. From around 100 yards, 22 rimfire within unknown number of feet/inches of left ear sounds like a very angry bumble bee.

Yep - too many times... Interestingly, the ones that hit you - well, you don't hear 'em. If you can hear them, they've missed. How do I know this, you ask? Trust your Uncle Preacherman - I know this!

A very loud "SNAP".
January 7, 2003, 09:49 AM
Best I can remember, it made a sound just like me cussing at the top of my lungs. :eek:

Can anyone vouche for the effects of the 50 cal sniper rifles used by snipers in the military. Some of my military friends would have me believe that if one of those rounds were to hit your hand it would tear your arm off at either the elbow or shoulder (depends on the day of the week for which one they pick :rolleyes: ).

In the course of war I would have to assume all manner of near misses have happened, including: having your hair parted, uniform puctured or an ear pierced.
Speaking of parting hair. Many years ago I shot a deer and while waiting for my hunting buddy to arrive on the scene I was examing my trophy. I was observing the neck area and there was what I am sure was a parting of hair from a near miss. Probably mine as he continued to run after my first shot in the lungs (with an '06).

Rifle bullets that pass by go "SNAP!"
Rifle bullets that hit flesh go "THWACK!"

Other than working the target pits, no Real World experience. Yeah, all calibers I heard went CRACK!
Had an interesting experience with outgoing though. I was backup shark guard on a sub in the 50s. We'd fire a fish and after it's run the "warhead" would fill with air and bob about. We'd send a couple of guys over the side to hook it up to a davit for retrieval.
The Navy, in it's wisdom, sent us to sea with a couple of M1s, but no clips. :rolleyes: The main shark guard had to single shot it. I had on board a 32"-bbl 45-70 with some rounds (in the boat's armory) and asked to stand watch also, claiming the heavier ball was just as effective as the 30-06. I got a lot of ribbing about "that old smokepole".
When we secured, I asked if I could shoot some rounds and they said OK. I was using some of Bannerman's old smokeless Gatling Gun ammo, ca. 1908 with 500 gr. slugs. After a few close-range, geyser-spouting shots, we wanted to see how far the slugs would carry (we were pretty far out at sea in the Caribbean).
I angled her at about 45 deg., fired, and heard a "Wish-wish-wish" sound. We never did see where the slugs landed but burned up 20 rounds just to hear the sound. Some of the no-gun-savvy guys thought it was as powerful as our 40mms.
I kept squinting into the sun to see if I could track the ball in flight :D as that big inch-long slug had a muzzle velicity of only about 1100 fps.

Well... from the target bunker... a company of 120 men shoots in two shifts, 60 each, with the other sixty in the bunker patching the targets and noting results. The sound of 7,62x39 from 60 Sakos and Valmets is a he11 of a swarm of hornets, with the actual shots from 150 or 300 meters away sounding strangely vague. The 7,62x53R from a Valmet or Dragunov sniper rifle gives a heavier buzz, as if tearing through something thicker than air.

EAST PALESTINE - Crestview's boys basketball had been waiting a while to enjoy a victory over East Palestine.
That wait ended on Tuesday as the Rebels rebounded from an 11-point third quarter deficit to knock off the defending Inter-Tri County League upper tier champions, 50-43, to earn their first win over the Bulldogs since the 2004-05 season.
Inside-men Tom Oliver and C.J. Collins had 15 and 14 points respectively to lead the charge against a tough East Palestine zone defense which limited the Rebels to four points in the second quarter.
"It's a good feeling getting the win over them," Collins said. "We didn't like the way both games ended last year. It was our turn."
It's early in the season, but the Rebels (3-0, 2-0 in the ITCL upper tier) already share a part of the league lead with Springfield and Lisbon.
East Palestine (1-2, 1-1) played disciplined defense for much of the first half and severely limited Crestview's scoring opportunities - both inside and out.
That defensive plan came with a price, however.
Bulldog seniors Cody Stewart and Austen Reiser were both effective in countering Collins and Oliver when they were in the game, but foul trouble caught up with them around the midway point of the third quarter.
East Palestine coach Tom Bingham had to sit them on the bench for a spell and that's when the Rebels started to make their move back from a 30-19 deficit with 3:06 left in the third quarter.
"We have to work on our technique a bit," Bingham said. "This is the second game out of three that we were in foul trouble. We have to learn from this."
Crestview's defense heaped on a lot of pressure in the final part of the third quarter and forced six turnovers in the frame. The Rebels, who snatched the lead for good with less than six minutes to go in the game, would also force five turnovers in the fourth quarter.
"I think our depth was a factor," Crestview coach Herman Miller said. "We have a lot of good basketball players on this team and sometimes it's really difficult to get them playing time."
One player who made the most of his limited playing time was sophomore Robert Logan who scored all six of his points in the fourth quarter. Logan had led the Rebel jayvee team in scoring with nine points in the reserve team's 38-31 victory.
"He's going to be a good one," said Collins who had eight rebounds. "He works hard and has a very good attitude."
East Palestine was led by Reiser's 12 points and eight rebounds. Senior Jake DiCello added seven points, five rebounds and four assists. Stewart managed eight points in his limited time on the floor because of foul trouble.
Since the Bulldogs are the three-time defending ITCL upper tier champs, the Rebels think the victory was a significant one. They're cautious about getting ahead of themselves though.
"Most of the league can beat you on any given night," Miller said. "There's probably going to be quite a few of these sorts of games."
East Palestine's leading scorers in the jayvee game were Steve Parker with seven points and Alec Dumbald with six points.
Crestview hosts United on Friday. East Palestine is at Columbiana on Friday.
CRESTVIEW SCORING: Dillon Gorby 1-0-2, Nate Climo 0-3-3, Collin Gilbert 0-3-3, Adam Coppock 2-2-7, C.J. Collins 5-4-14, Tom Oliver 5-5-15, Austin Eskra 0-0-0, Robert Logan 3-0-6. TEAM TOTALS: 16-40, 17-28: 50.
EAST PALESTINE SCORING: Tyler Foster 1-2-5, Nate Keylor 1-2-4, Austen Reiser 2-6-12, Jake DiCello 2-3-7, Zak Brockman 3-1-7, Cody Stewart 3-2-8. TEAM TOTALS: 12-34, 16-24: 43.
Three-point goals: Crestview 1 (Coppock), East Palestine 3 (Reiser 2, Foster).

College Overview
NIC offers presentation on the Mullan Military Road
Return to news room
North Idaho College will offer a presentation on Captain John Mullan and the Mullan Military Road Feb. 21. "Mullan's Road" will cover the 624-mile military road from Fort Walla Walla on the Columbia River in Washington to Fort Benton on the Missouri River in Montana at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 21 in Molstead Library's Todd Hall.
|photo1|Robert Singletary, a regional historian and living history performer, will portray Mullan during the presentation in authentic clothing typical of the period.
The main Mullan Military Road traversed northern Idaho, entering near what is now Tensed, crossing the southern tip of Lake Coeur d'Alene, taking a northeasterly route following the Coeur d'Alene River toward what is now Cataldo and entering Montana near Mullan. Different branches of the road were added later, including a route through Coeur d'Alene and Post Falls.
The road was completed in 1862 and was the first federal road constructed in the Northwest. It has been designated a National Civil Engineering Landmark and nominated to the National Register of Historic Places.
Singletary is well known in the area for his work on local and regional history. He is a history instructor for NIC, Lewis-Clark State College and the University of Idaho and has served on the board of directors for the Museum of North Idaho as well as the Idaho State Historical Society. Singletary has also worked extensively with the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial Celebration.
The presentation is part of a living history series sponsored by NIC's Molstead Library in cooperation with the Museum of North Idaho. It is free and open to the public.

Catholic Schools have always struggled, but in recent years those struggles have caused many to close their doors. We need Catholic Schools. While primary faith formation should take place in the home, Catholic Schools are able to create a Catholic Culture that CCD programs, no matter how good they may be, simply are not able to replicate. Here is a story about a Catholic school that people have cared enough about to save:
Letter and Donations Make it Easy to Believe (Please note that this article will only be available the next 14 days)
Even though my children will be home schooled next year, my husband and I continue to be supportive of Catholic schools and will continue to volunteer our time and contribute our financial resources. If you went to a Catholic School and it is still open, please consider making a donation to say "thank you" and help provide a Catholic education for a new generation. If you have a Catholic School in your parish, please support it. Perhaps most importantly, pray for our Catholic Schools and for the teachers who work in them. Prayer can indeed work miracles.

Despite the fact that Dominik Hasek's bout with the flu knocked him out of the last two games, Chris Osgood hasn't bumped Hasek down the Red Wings' depth chart, as Ken Holland told the Detroit Free Press's Helene St. James:
March 29, Detroit Free Press: "Dom's the guy," general manager Ken Holland said. "I think Dom has earned that right through his career and also I think by what he did for us last year in the playoffs. With the way Chris has played, we'd feel really good if there is an injury to Dom, we can throw Chris in there, but Dom's our guy."
Osgood had the league's best goals-against average for part of the season. The Wings signed him to a three-year extension this season in part because management and coach Mike Babcock know he won't pout when Hasek starts the playoffs.
"At this point in my career, I realize how to work through things and accept things," Osgood said. "My main goal this year was to do what I'm doing -- play a lot, more than last year, and put it into Mike's hands that if he has to use me, he won't hesitate to put me in, and I think I've done that. I don't feel I can do anything more. I think I've proven I can play in any situation, that I'm 100% ready to go if he needs me in the playoffs."
Teammates who remember the tense the locker room of 2003-04, when the Wings had Hasek and Curtis Joseph, appreciate that Osgood is such a good fit on and off the ice.
"He wants to play, but he's a team player and a great guy to have in the dressing room," Kris Draper said. "All he's going to do if his name gets called is he's going to go out and play great for us. But he's not the kind of guy that's going to rock the boat or cause distractions of any kind. He knows the big picture is to win the Stanley Cup, and he wants to be a part of it."

Valkyria Chronicles
Not a true strategy gameBy Dan Dethlefs Score:
Mar 17, 2009 9:09PM PST
I love many things about this game. The presentation is phenomenal, the blend of strategy and real time tactics is in near perfect harmony, and the story is worth your attention. However, where this game falls short in the opinion of a true strategist is in the scenario design.
After the couple easy intro missions, the game begins throwing curveballs at you which hamper any notion of builing an early strategy. In fact, most cases will see you failing and repeating missions because half-way through a mission, some crazy super unit will pop in out of nowhere and own half your dudes (something no person could possibly anticipate without the guide/gamefaqs). To me, this is the game's largest shortcoming.
I could care less about the lack of trophy support or the linear mission structure, but it irritates me to no end that they purposely force you to replay missions if you want to perform even semi well (unless, of course, you are incredibly lucky). Thats not a strategy game, thats a memory game with tactical addition.

The upcoming Brown-India Initiative seminar will feature Thad Dunning of Yale University. On Friday, February 15, Professor Dunning will deliver a lecture titled "Parties, Caste, and Distribution in India: Grassroots Political Mobilization in Cross-State Perspective." The event is free and open to the public. It will be held in the Joukowsky Forum at the Watson Institute for International Studies at 2:30 PM. A discussion and reception will follow.
Thad Dunning is Associate Professor of Political Science, a research fellow at Yale's Whitney and Betty MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies as well as the Institution for Social and Policy Studies, and co-director, with Giovanni Maggi, of Yale's Leitner Program in International and Comparative Political Economy. He studies comparative politics, political economy, and methodology. His first book, Crude Democracy: Natural Resource Wealth and Political Regimes (2008, Cambridge University Press), won the Best Book Award from the Comparative Democratization Section of the American Political Science Association and the Gaddis Smith Prize, for the best first book on an international topic by a member of the Yale faculty. His current work on ethnic and other cleavages draws on field and natural experiments and qualitative fieldwork in Latin America, India, and Africa. Dunning has also written on a range of methodological topics; his second book, Natural Experiments in the Social Sciences: A Design-Based Approach (2012, Cambridge University Press), develops a framework for the discovery, analysis, and evaluation of strong research designs. His work has appeared in the American Political Science Review, Comparative Political Studies, International Organization, Journal of Conflict Resolution, Political Analysis, Studies in Comparative International Development, and other journals. He received a Ph.D. degree in political science and an M.A. degree in economics from the University of California, Berkeley (2006).

LUBBOCK — Even teams who have played for district championships before get nervous. That's how Lubbock Coronado junior forward Lizzy Dimba explained the Lady Mustangs' first half.
But, as head coach Kriss Ethridge noted, time and again this season her charges have started slowly and finished strongly, and that script was followed to the letter in Tuesday night's District 2-5A finale.
Dimba took over in the second half to score all 14 of her points after halftime, including nine in the fourth quarter, and Coronado rallied past Amarillo High for a 54-42 victory to claim the outright 2-5A crown.
"We started off really slow so we used the press in the second half to get back on track and play how we play," Dimba said. "We calmed down, set our offense, things like that. I think a little of it was nerves, and we weren't really scared but anxious to see what was going to happen. After we got all that out in the first half, in the second half we came out and just played."
The win gives the Lady Mustangs (24-6, 7-1 in 2-5A) the top seed in the upcoming Class 5A playoffs which begin next week.
The loss drops Amarillo High to 25-6 overall and 6-2 in District 2-5A. The Lady Sandies will represent 2-5A as the No. 2 seed.
"Our kids played hard and the final score doesn't indicate how close the game really was," said AHS coach Jeff Williams. "I feel like we have a good team and we have a shot to do some good things in the playoffs."
"It feels really great," Ethridge said. "When we beat Monterey at Monterey we knew we had a shot at it but we still had to protect our home court. That's the only difference in this district is we won one away game more than anybody else. These kids have worked so hard."
Amarillo High, meanwhile, goes into the postseason in a position that in the past has proven advantageous toward making a deep playoff run.
For the entire first half and the first part of the third quarter, it appeared the teams would be reversed in their order of finish. The Lady Sandies used the inside combination of Krista Strange and Elizabeth McDaniel to dominate defensively, then hit some timely 3-pointers to build a 26-19 halftime lead.
Amarillo High forced Coronado into seven first-half turnovers, and Strange had a pair of blocks that kept Coronado from developing any offensive rhythm. Coronado managed just four points combined from center Elle Hendershot and forwards Lizzy and Suzzy Dimba.
McDaniel hit a pair of 3-pointers in the first quarter, then back-to-back threes by Brandi Leal in the final minutes of the first half gave the Lady Sandies complete control at the intermission.
"They had a put-back there at the end of the half after we went on a nice run there," Williams said. "In the second half we still felt good. I felt Elizabeth and Krista and Blair (Gossett) all three played well defensively in the first half, blocked a ton of shots early. But (Coronado) found a way in the second half."
It started with taking the ball to the basket. All three of Coronado's baskets to start the third quarter came in the paint, and a 7-0 run by the Lady Mustangs pulled them to within a bucket at 30-28.
Amarillo High appeared to have stemmed the tide from there as an Alexius Dawn layup put the Lady Sandies up 34-30 with 2:46 remaining in the period. But Coronado picked the momentum back up and closed the quarter on a 7-0 run that featured a Gabby Gonzales 3-pointer and a layup by Abigail Hopper with four seconds left. Hopper stole the ball, and after two free throws by Lizzy Dimba put the Lady Mustangs ahead for the first time since midway through the first quarter.
Dimba personally kept the momentum going into the fourth by converting a three-point play, then hitting another short jumper 17 seconds later. Suddenly, the Lady Mustangs were up by eight at 42-34.
AMARILLO HIGH (25-6, 6-2): Carver 0 0-0 0, Hodge 0 0-0 0, Dawn 4 2-4 10, O'Hair 0 2-2 2, Leeper 0 0-0 0, Leal 2 0-0 6, B. Gossett 1 0-0 2, J. Gossett 0 0-0 0, Strange 7 0-0 14, McDaniel 3 0-2 7, Betts 0 0-0 0. Totals 17 4-8 42.

Carnival of Personal Finance #8 Available
|Email Print
This week's installment is chock full of goodies weighing in at a hefty twenty-four submissions. There are a lot of gems from a lot of good pf bloggers, some whom you may read regularly, and some who you may not. Here are a few of the ones I liked:
A must read if you're considering rolling over a 401(k): Jonathan of MyMoneyBlog details his research and decisions in the entire process. There are three parts and here's the first part.
You've may have read about the "true cost of ownership" for a car, well Free Money Finance extended it to pets. This is actually a follow up post to his first post about how a pet only cost $48,000 and recently increased his estimate.
Another insightful post from JLP this week, it's about how much you need to save for future college expenses. Since I'm only 24 (a week from 25!), this is something that's at least 20 years away but with all the horror predictions of how much college will cost me, this post puts it in a little perspective. I'd check out some of JLP's other posts too, he puts a lot of potentially complex financial topics into caveman terms.
And if you're interested, my own article submission is on the value of home renovations.
Next week's Carnival (the ninth) will be hosted right here, if you'd like to contribute please use my contact form and I'll get you included. First come, first served. Please follow the submission guidelines outlined here. Cheers!{ 0 comments, please add your thoughts now! }

ELLSWORTH – A Trenton woman was arrested Monday afternoon for her part in a scheme to help her jailed husband contact the man he allegedly assaulted last summer, according to authorities.Sandra Lanpher, 31, was arrested in the parking lot of a Bar Harbor business as she reportedly attempted to meet with the man her husband, Alfred Lanpher, 37, allegedly assaulted and robbed in July at a convenience store in the town of Mount Desert.
"Both Sandra and Alfred tried to talk the victim into changing his story," Officer Chris Smith of the Mount Desert Police Department said. "There's been no threatening. Just politely asking him to change his story."
Alfred Lanpher is accused of stealing a small amount of money from the victim and then taking part in his assault, along with another alleged perpetrator, Christopher Sullivan, 22, of Holden. The two allegedly punched and kicked the victim repeatedly, leaving him with fractured ribs and other injuries. A second victim had lesser injuries. Both men went to Mount Desert Island Hospital in Bar Harbor, where they were treated and then released.
Lanpher and Sullivan left the convenience store in separate vehicles and were apprehended by police at a residence in Ellsworth. Both men were arrested and charged with aggravated assault. A robbery charge was added later.
The initial contact between the Trenton couple and the victim happened two weeks ago during a phone call from Sandra Lanpher to the victim, Smith said. A trio of phone calls after that were three-way conversations among Sandra Lanpher, the victim, and Alfred Lanpher – who was locked in Hancock County Jail.
"According to jail staff, this doesn't occur on a regular basis," Smith said. "If they're arrested and in jail they don't usually make contact with victims of a previous crime."
Lanpher is in jail awaiting trial for the July assault, which is scheduled for April. He had been free on bail until he was arrested two months ago for another assault, the officer said. After that incident his bail was revoked.
His bail conditions included having no contact with the victim.
After Monday's arrest, both husband and wife were charged with tampering with a victim, which is a Class B felony. Sandra Lanpher also was charged with unlawful possession of an unidentified narcotic and taken to Penobscot County Jail, where she remained Wednesday evening. Alfred Lanpher remains at the Hancock County Jail, officials said.
Bar Harbor and Mount Desert police departments combined forces to make the arrest, Smith said.

Storm Clouds Over Saturn
NASA released a false-color image of one of the first close-up views of a massive hurricane churning above Saturn's north pole today.
The original image, taken by NASA's Cassini spacecraft on Nov, 27, 2012, used a combination of spectral filters sensitive to wavelengths of near-infrared light to capture the sight. The image released today has been enhanced with blue, green, and red coloring to show low clouds as red and high clouds as green.
These images captured by the Cassini spacecraft offer some of the first views of Saturn's north pole lit by the sun. When the spacecraft arrived in the Saturnian system in 2004, it was northern winter and the north pole was veiled in darkness. It is not known how long this newly discovered north-polar hurricane has been active. Scientists estimate the eye of the storm to be about 1,250 miles across with clouds traveling as fast as 330 miles per hour.

Levone Stanley, 22, of the 200 block of Jersey Street, bolted from an auto on Winter Avenue and Jersey Street in his community after police pulled him over for a failing to signal a turn, said Detective Joseph Cavitolo, an NYPD spokesman.
As cops approached, Stanley crawled out of the vehicle and fled, said a law enforcement source. Police believe they spotted a handgun in his waistband, said the source.
Meanwhile, the unoccupied Acura Legend rolled into another vehicle, said police.
Police responded in force to search for the suspect, bringing in a helicopter to aid them.
Stanley was nabbed near his home and cops allegedly found a bag of marijuana in his shoe. The gun was not recovered, said a law-enforcement source.
Stanley did not own the vehicle, which was unregistered, the source said.
The suspect was charged with misdemeanor counts of reckless endangerment, resisting arrest and criminal mischief, said a spokesman for District Attorney Daniel Donovan. He's also accused of a lesser count of marijuana possession.

Volunteerism is Universal: An extract from the 2011 State of the World's Volunteerism Report
Today, 21 May, is the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development. This year's theme, 'Do One Thing for Diversity and Inclusion' encourages people and organizations around the world to take concrete action to support diversity.
On this Day, the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme launches an extract from the 2011 State of the World's Volunteerism Report, 'Volunteerism is Universal', focusing on the universal values that motivate people the world over to volunteer for the common good. In doing so, it examines some fundamental misperceptions that remain widespread in the Western world and beyond regarding the nature and contributions of volunteer action.

Aerial 360 Video in Moscow
In early 2011 we developed a method for filming and editing 360 video shot by 4 Canon DSLR cameras and posted an article with technical details on our website.
You can see our first test ride around the Kremlin in the car by following this link.
In this article we talk about 360 video and that it can be shot not only by professional cameras, but also by a device assembled from compact digital cameras, which gives some advantages in size, weight, cost, and can reduce the parallax.
The result you see is what we filmed from the air with such device created by one of our colleagues. This film is most certainly not a masterpiece, it only demonstrates the technical capabilities of 360 video. Something that was impossible for many years is now happening on your screens.
Flights over Moscow are illegal, but you can fly above the Moscow Ring Road (MKAD) and on the outskirts. That's why we went to Crocus City Mall in the north-west of the city where several helipads can be found. Please note that in order to view 360 video online you need a powerful computer and fast Internet connection.

How To Feel Your Posting Trot Diagonals
In this week's Horse Master with Julie Goodnight episode (airs weekly on RFDTV), Julie works with a young rider to learn to feel her trot diagonals instead of looking for them.
She posted this 5 minute video of the session on YouTube. It's worth watching, even if you already know how to feel your diagonals.
A few key points from the session include:
Why is it important to post on the outside diagonal (when outside front leg is coming forward)? It helps your horses to balance, particularly in the turns.
To remember which diagonal is correct, just think "rise and fall with the leg on the wall".
While we remember our diagonals based on the front leg, we actually post on correct diagonal because of the back legs.
To learn to feel your trot diagonals:
At the walk, feel your hips lifting. Say "now" every time your outside hip lifts up.
Then move up to a sitting trot.
In order to feel the correct diagonal, feel when your outside hip lifts up.
Every time your outside hip comes up, say "up".
Begin posting on the word up.
And voila! You are posting on the correct diagonal.
This is a great system, but it will be more beneficial if you have a buddy in the ring with you who can confirm that you are indeed feeling things correctly and getting the correct diagonals. Anybody else want to take Julie Goodnight home as their buddy?
What tips and tricks do you have to share for learning to feel your diagonals?

Summary: Take a peaceful 1 or 2 mile hike in this oasis of greenery and woodland in the midst of urban Long Beach. Once you step inside the nature center you enter a special world with two beautiful lakes, forested trails, turtles basking in the sun, and blue heron swooping over the waters. There is an amazing diversity of wildlife.
Across the street from the Nature center is the huge El Dorado Regional Park, with bike trails, more lakes for fishing, a miniature train kids can ride, and several playground areas. Turn this into picnic outing with the family. Thanks to Bob Carley for suggesting this hike!
Trailhead: Take the southbound 605 towards Long Beach and exit at Spring Street, turn right, then left into the El Dorado Nature Center. (Lat:33.80986 Lon:-118.08575)

Reviewed by Bob C on 10/29/2013
I am the one who suggested this hike to Jim Zuber. Contrary to what Chris reviewed on 8/24/12 the berry brambles have not taken over most of the area. Seems to me Chris interjected some politics into his review. I was there on 10-26-13 and did 6.6 miles, alternating the 1 and 2 mile trails. This is a great place to get some miles on your legs if you don't have the time to go into local mountains. I saw many families having a wonderful time and a raccoon gave 3 families an adventure as it searched for fish in between washing up in the stream. Rangers are still present in the vast EL Dorado Park of which the Nature Center is part. 1 parking fee gets you into both or you can purchase a yearly pass and go as often as you wish. Enjoy!
Reviewed by Chris on 8/24/2012
This place has some nice stands of oak and other trees, but 75% of this nature center is a total mess ! Berry brambles are taking over most of it. More natives need planting and the old trees that are there are getting choked out by sucker trees and rogue non-native plants. Also, this place is very poorly managed. Who spends 500,000 on a foot bridge??? They could have gone to a local weld shop and had the pieces welded for 10-15 thousand and had it installed by local volunteers. But hey, it's only money! Ths place should be privately run. The city will most likely reduce hours since they are spending all the city money on retired city workers and retired teachers. They already announced the rangers will all be fired in October.
Reviewed by Bob C on 8/21/2011
I was there Saturday. The area is growing back nicely after non native plants were removed last year. I did 11 miles alternating the 1 and 2 mile hikes, reversing, etc. Nice if its not convenient to go to the San Gabriels or OC. Regarding the parking charge, you can get a year pass thru Long Beach. This gets you in free.
Reviewed by Julie on 9/12/2010
The trail is very nice and shady. It is perfect for kids and my son loves it. Many things that the kids would love to see from here, the lake, turtles, birds....very green everywhere. Would love to go again...but yeah, $7.00 fee.
Reviewed by Nikki on 7/13/2010
really nice to escape the city for a bit, while still only being 5 minutes from starbucks and all you can eat Chinese food. great for kids, out of shape people,and elderly. the $7 parking fee is kind of alot for what you get, but after the walk you can relax in the expansive park across the street.
Reviewed by Bob C on 4/13/2010
The restoration is complete. They rerouted some of the streams, removed non native plant species, etc. This is a gem in the city! It'll be awhile for some areas to be filled in, etc. Still enjoyed it.
Reviewed by Heather on 1/9/2010
This is a very beautiful hike. However, if you are the type of hiker who likes serenity, this hike is not for you. The center is far too family friendly and has more of a recreational park feel. Too many people and too many small children along with the background noise from the 605 freeway made this a very noisy and not a peaceful hike.
Reviewed by Katie on 10/18/2009
Sections of the trail are now closed down for rehabilitation. They are removing tress not native to the area and lining the lakes with riverbed rocks. The only part open is a mile trail in the beginning of the park. I would suggest calling to see what trails are open before visiting. Other than that, I have a year pass and enjoy visiting 3 to 4 times a week!!!

Fully Free GNU/Linux Presentation
As planned, I did my talk about the thriving fully free GNU/Linux distribution movement at yesterday's FSFE Berlin Fellowship meeting. I started with the basics of the Free Software ideal, moved on to the problematic issues concerning mainstream GNU/Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and Debian and then discussed the solutions to these problems. I also had the chance to share some of my favorite fully free GNU/Linux distributions.
The interest in the topic was amazing, and the Q&A discussion after the presentation turned out to be more interesting than the presentation itself. After the event, I even managed to get my share of the FSFE's Hug A Developer campaign!

Interfaith Alliance slams report calling for an end to ban on endorsing candidates from the pulpit
August 14, 2013

Washington, D.C. – Interfaith Alliance President Rev. Dr. C. Welton Gaddy slammed a report calling for an end to the long-time ban on clergy preaching politics from the pulpit. The report was issued by the Commission on Accountability and Policy for Religious Organizations. Gaddy issued the following statement in response to the report:
"The fact that this particular grouping of people has come together to call for eliminating the ban on politics from the pulpit is of little surprise. No one should misunderstand this report as representative of all people of faith or as authentic to our nation's historic understanding of the boundaries between religion and government. Indeed, the report does not even represent the whole of the commission's advisors, particularly those -- whom I am proud to call colleagues -- who wrote their own position paper opposing the conclusions of the commission report."
"The rights of clergy to preach about the most pressing issues of the day and to provide moral guidance to their congregations are not in danger and rightly must be protected. But those rights are very different from standing at the pulpit -- shrouded in your faith -- to announce that your congregation should vote for one candidate or party over another. There is an implicit message in doing so -- sometimes explicit -- that clergy are speaking in the name of God and an explicit message that breeds divisiveness in a congregation that should be together united in faith."
"Frankly, there is already too much religion in politics. When candidates invoke religion, or ask clergy to do it for them, it is usually about advancing the candidate and rarely about benefiting religion. Changing the laws of the land to allow a further intertwining of religion and politics will only serve to endanger both. Having served as an active pastor for more than 50 years, I cannot think of a more effective way of harming houses of worship across our nation than to allow partisan politics to compromise the integrity of the inclusive message of houses of worship."
