ARCHIE Stirling, the maverick founder of Scottish Voice, is understood to have called in Canadian shock-troops in an attempt to lift his campaign.
A platoon of sharp-suited and sunglasses-wearing electioneers, strategists and pollsters from North America has been lined up to co-ordinate Mr Stirling's campaign, but they may have underestimated both the task facing them and the nature of Scottish politics.
Among their early requests were batteries of phone banks, focus groups, polls and all the expenses-no-object accessories of big-time American elections. It is understood that Mr Stirling, the nephew of SAS founder David Stirling, has had to water down their expectations and demands.
But it has not stopped Scottish Voice making its first real mistake of the campaign. It "put a poll in the field" to ask people if they would be willing to use their "second vote" to back Mr Stirling's party. Unfortunately, Scottish Voice is not standing on the second vote, it is standing candidates just on the regional list - now the first vote.
Dundee's invisible voters
JACK McConnell kicked off his campaign by taking to the streets in Dundee, well to Mathieson's Food Court in the Overgate shopping centre to be precise. It was not the best of starts. Dundee contains two must-win seats for Labour, but the First Minister had difficulty finding any voters from the city.
He chatted with shoppers at every table in the cafe but, of the first dozen people he spoke to, not one was from Dundee.
It didn't help that Mr McConnell did not have the traditional red rosette to identify him as a Labour politician.
Party managers strenuously denied it was a new strategy of avoiding any overt reference to the Labour Party for fear that it might lose them even more votes than they have lost already.
Purring along after early hiccup
THE SNP campaign didn't get off to the best start either. Journalists were given the wrong address on Govan Road for Nicola Sturgeon's first campaign appointment last Friday.
But what was worse was a mix up in timings, with invitations to the press to arrive at 11pm, not 11am. Most journalists guessed they were due in the morning.
However, Ms Sturgeon soon recovered herself by donning the first silly outfit of the campaign: a hard hat and luminous jacket and tottering on to a building site in her kitten heels.
Following in ancestral footsteps
THE ancestor of a former prime minister will be on the election trail today.
David Campbell Bannerman's great-great-great-grand-uncle was Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman, the Liberal prime minister between 1905 and 1908.
Mr Campbell Bannerman junior is deputy leader of UKIP and lead candidate for the Highlands and Islands.
He is launching UKIP's manifesto for the Scottish elections today. Unfortunately, it is due to coincide with the launch of the Conservative manifesto and a flying visit by the Prime Minister.

AFRICA'S first fact-checking website, invented by the AFP Foundation, has been launched, the journalism department at Wits University said on Thursday.
"To our knowledge, this is the first time anyone has tried to do something like this, here in Africa," AFP Foundation deputy director Peter Cunliffe-Jones said in a statement.
The website — which was described as "non-partisan" and intended to promote "accuracy in public debate and media reporting" — is modelled on similar sites in Europe and the US, including online initiatives to cross-check statements made by US presidential candidates during public debates in the continuing election campaigns.
Media practitioners were allowed to use reports published on the website in broadcasts or articles, and could also suggest public claims that needed to be investigated. Website editor Ruth Becker urged journalists during the launch at Wits University on Wednesday to send over critical questions that needed fact checking.
Mr Cunliffe-Jones said "for any society to function properly, people need access to reliable information and that includes Africa".
"Whether the claims people make are about health, politics or the economy, they should be checked properly and impartially."
The site Africa Check, which is based in Wits's journalism department, was established to spread the skills and practice of fact checking among students and media houses.
The Caxton professor of journalism at Wits, Anton Harber, was a senior adviser to the project.
He said: "I believe that Africa Check can make an important contribution to public discourse by promoting a culture of accuracy and making public figures think twice about playing loose with the facts."
Former UN secretary-general Kofi Annan said earlier this year the project was important in "engaging with journalists and citizens across the continent to raise the level of public debate".
The project would be funded until the end of the year by the IPI News Innovation Contest, run by the Vienna-based International Press Institute.
The site can be found on www.africacheck.org.

TOKYO — A PROMINENT critic of the Bank of Japan's (BoJ's) policymaking, who is considered a leading candidate to take over at the central bank next month, said he favoured an aggressive two-year timeframe to meet a new goal of lifting inflation to 2%.
Asian Development Bank President Haruhiko Kuroda declined to comment on Monday on whether he is being courted by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to head up the Bank of Japan, telling reporters he is happy in his current position.
"A 2% inflation target has become a global standard, and it is a landmark decision on the BOJ's part to adopt the same target," said Mr Kuroda, who was in Tokyo for a seminar.
"An appropriate timeframe should be about two years."
Mr Abe is set to nominate a new BoJ governor to replace Masaaki Shirakawa, who steps down next month, and has made it clear he wants someone who will take bold policy steps to revive the economy and conquer deflation.
Mr Kuroda, who was Japan's top currency diplomat in the wake of the Asian financial crisis in the late 1990s and has criticised Mr Shirakawa's policies at the BoJ, is thought to be favoured by Mr Abe's camp.
But Mr Abe's push for a governor who will pursue radical policy is meeting resistance from his cabinet and bureaucrats, who are wary of triggering market turmoil, and Mr Kuroda declined to comment on whether he was a candidate.
"I'm very satisfied with my current job and can't make any other comments," said Mr Kuroda.
"I cannot respond to hypothetical questions," he said when asked what he would do if Abe asked him to become BoJ governor.
Yen's reversal
Mr Abe won power in December, and last month the BoJ adopted a 2% inflation target as a sign of its commitment to fight deflation and announced a shift to "open-ended" asset buying.
However, many investors were disappointed that even in taking unconventional steps the BoJ displayed a caution that critics say has characterised Mr Shirakawa's term, delaying the "open-ended" buying until next year and limiting its scope.
Mr Kuroda said there were several hundred trillion yen worth of domestic financial assets the BoJ could buy to expand its quantitative easing.
But he said the BoJ should not buy foreign-currency bonds — something which could draw international criticism as indirect intervention to weaken the yen — saying currency policy was run by the finance ministry.
Since November, as Mr Abe became the election frontrunner, the yen has fallen sharply in anticipation of his economic agenda and is now near three-year lows against the dollar.
Policymakers in South Korea, Germany and elsewhere have expressed concern over the potentially destabilising global impact of the BoJ's move to quicken the pace of money creation.
"This is basically a reversal of the excessive yen gains and declines in Asian currencies that occurred after the Lehman Brothers crisis," Mr Kuroda said.
"Abe's policies may have played some part in this."
Despite the concerns, officials from the Group of 20 industrialised and developing countries say Japan is unlikely to face pressure over the falling yen at a G20 meeting in Moscow on February 15-16.
Parliament hurdle
A career bureaucrat at Japan's finance ministry before moving to the Manila-based ADB, the 68-year-old Kuroda has extensive international experience.
Former BoJ Deputy Governor Toshiro Muto, 69, is also seen as a leading candidate. Some consider Mr Muto a safer pair of hands because he has experience both as a bureaucrat at the finance ministry and serving on the BoJ board.
Whoever Mr Abe nominates will have to be confirmed by parliament. This could be a problem with a candidate seen a too radical, because Abe's Liberal Democratic Party does not have a majority in the upper house.
Opposition parties could try to block either Mr Kuroda or Mr Muto on the grounds their careers at the finance ministry meant they could not conduct monetary policy objectively.

Who is Rani Mukerji recommending?
Rani Mukerji's influence in Yash Raj Films is a well known fact.
So as a good will gesture the actress decided to put in a word of recommendation for her Aiyya hero Prithviraj, for a role in Arjun Kapoor's Aurangzeb.
And according to sources speaking to Mid Day, the actor is already on board and the film will go on floors later this year.
Now Prithviraj is already a big star down South, but a film with the Chopras even before the release of his Hindi debut, puts him in a very strong position in Bollywood.
Prithviraj had played Aishwarya Rai's husband's role in the Tamil and Telugu versions of Raavan.

SAN ANTONIO—Cancer patients treated with chemotherapy often report difficulty in concentration, memory, and cognitive function, the phenomenon now typically called chemobrain. Research has been directed at understanding the problem and exploring cognitive function before and after chemotherapy. A group of poster presentations at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium explored various aspects of cognitive changes in breast cancer patients, but taken together, the findings still do not prove or disprove a relationship between cognitive impairment and chemotherapy.
One study showed that patients slated to undergo adjuvant hormonal therapy reported no more cognitive difficulties than their healthy peers; another found that elderly women who undergo chemotherapy in the modern era are not at greater risk for dementia; and a third showed that among women who received adjuvant chemotherapy, there was a strong association between cognitive function and age, number of years of education, and intelligence.
A researcher in this area who was not connected to the studies, Sanne B. Schagen, PhD, of the Department of Psychosocial Research and Epidemiology of the Netherlands Cancer Institute, said that she was pleased to see this important topic represented at the meeting.
"The evidence is gradually building that certain combinations of cytotoxic chemotherapy are associated with cognitive problems," she said. "Most of the evidence comes from breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy, but that is because of the availability of large numbers of long-term survivors and not so much because of the characteristics of this patient group or the particular treatments."
Postmenopausal women with breast cancer who are candidates for hormonal therapy following surgery have a similar cognitive status as age-matched healthy controls, according to a substudy of the TEAM trial. The study showed that the prevalence of cognitive complaints was no higher in breast cancer patients than in controls.
The lead author, Christine Schilder, MSc, also of the Netherlands Cancer Institute, noted that the study subjects were interviewed about memory, concentration, thinking, and language in their everyday functioning—"We did not give them cognitive testing batteries," she explained.
The study did show that higher anxiety/depression scores were associated with more difficulty in concentrating for both patients and controls, but not with more problems with memory, thinking, and language.
No association was found between cognitive complaints and general and physical fatigue, treatment-related factors, age, or intelligence quotient. "Breast cancer patients often report cognitive changes in association with adjuvant therapy, and we wanted to study whether these changes are already present after surgery but before adjuvant therapy," Ms. Schilder explained.
The study included 205 patients not qualified to receive chemotherapy who were enrolled in the TEAM trial. TEAM was designed to compare exemestane versus tamoxifen as adjuvant therapy. Patients had a mean age of 69 years. The control group comprised 124 healthy female friends or relatives of the patients, with mean age of 66.5.
Tim A. Ahles, PhD, Director of the Neurocognitive Research Laboratories at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, called the study interesting and said that the results are consistent with other studies of self-reported cognitive problems in cancer patients evaluated prior to adjuvant treatment.
"However, if you do formal neuropsychological testing, you can identify a subgroup of patients with lower than expected cognitive scores based on age and education after surgery but before chemotherapy," he said. About 20 to 30 percent of breast cancer patients have lower cognitive scores in this setting—not a trivial number," he said.
A question for further research is whether this vulnerable subgroup is at greater risk for the development of cognitive problems after chemotherapy. Another question to explore is why women who score more poorly on neuropsychological tests don't self-report cognitive problems, he said. "We need to understand how this relates to post-chemotherapy cognitive effects."
Dr. Schagen emphasized that these findings reflect women's performance before endocrine therapy and said that it is interesting that patients do not report more cognitive complaints compared with healthy women. "It would be interesting to see whether this holds true for performance on neuropsychological tests," she commented.
The study by Schilder et al is part of a large ongoing prospective study on the potential effects of endocrine treatments for postmenopausal breast cancer patients, and Dr. Schagen said she awaits the second assessment of the study on the effects of systemic treatment.
A study reported by Nancy Baxter, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor of Surgery at St. Michael's Hospital at the University of Toronto, compared the incidence of dementia in older women who received adjuvant chemotherapy with that in older women who did not and found no effect of chemotherapy on the development of dementia. "Our study suggests that chemotherapy, as currently delivered, does not seem to pose the risk of dementia," Dr. Baxter said.
She cautioned, though, that the study was confined to dementia and does not address subtle or temporary effects of chemotherapy on cognition.
"Our study used claims data and relied on strict criteria for a diagnosis of dementia, so more subtle changes in cognitive impairment and subclinical dementia could not be evaluated," she said.
The study used SEER cancer registry data linked to Medicare enrollment records and utilization data. Diagnostic codes were used to identify women who got chemotherapy and Medicare claims data were used to determine a diagnosis of dementia. The database included 20,541 women age 66 to 80 diagnosed with non-metastatic invasive breast cancer from January 1992 through December 1999.
Of the 20,000+ women who met selection criteria, 2,865 (14%) were exposed to chemotherapy. The median age at diagnosis of breast cancer was 72. The median age of women exposed to chemotherapy was 70, and of unexposed women, 73.
Median follow-up time for the entire cohort was 59 months. Dementia developed in 738 (3.6%) women: 2% of women exposed to chemotherapy and 3.8% of women not exposed to chemotherapy.
Still, Dr. Schagen said there are questions: "As the authors point out, dementia is a rather crude endpoint. Cognitive declines different from normal age-related changes have not been examined in this study. More important is that the results should be interpreted with caution, because the incidence of dementia found in this study [a total of 3.6% in the study population] is so much lower than would be expected in women age 71 and older [14%] that the study may be hampered by a selection bias.
"Using claims data as a source of information on the cognitive status of cancer patients treated with chemotherapy may therefore not be an adequate method."
Also reported at the meeting was a prospective study of 119 women who received adjuvant chemotherapy and underwent neuropsychological testing to assess cognitive function before chemotherapy and at several time points later. Cognitive function was linked with age, baseline intelligence quotient (IQ), reading level, and years of education.
"This paper validates what has been established in other areas of neuropsychological research—that cognitive function depends on variables such as age and baseline IQ, not on whether or not patients received chemotherapy," said Geoffrey Beadle, MD, of the Translational Research Laboratory at the Queensland Institute of Medical Research in Brisbane, Australia.
Study participants included women who underwent adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer following surgery, with a wide age range—18 to 70—and had been proficient in English since early childhood.
The patients were assessed with a battery of neuropsychological tests for areas including memory, attention, speed of information processing, and executive function. The preliminary analysis of the study presented was based only on Auditory Verbal Learning Test (AVLT) scores for immediate and delayed recall of words, with and without distractor lists.
Age and years of education were found to be significantly correlated with the scores at all time points, Dr. Beadle reported. The investigators also measured quality of life and found that correlations between quality of life and the learning test scores were inconsistent and were not strongly associated with the scores after adjusting for age and years of education.
The outcome findings have the potential to be quite relevant, because it is one of the largest prospective studies in this field, said Dr. Schagen, noting that the study uses a technique for the analysis of the data that is not frequently applied in this area and deals with the complex and interrelated data in a sophisticated way,
Dr. Ahles noted that the study does not specifically address the effects of chemotherapy on cognition, because there is no control group or comparator group.
"In a longitudinal study, most subjects will improve over time. A comparator group would be needed to see if improvement is similar in women who did not get chemotherapy compared to those who did. In this preliminary analysis, the researchers focused on the AVLT, which is one measure of neurocognition. Another pattern might emerge when they look at other measures."

Look! Spices for Mulled Wine and Cider
Leigh says:
I bought mulling spices in bulk from Chicago's Spice House, filled each mulling bag with either one tablespoon (for one bottle of wine) or three (for one gallon of cider). I wrote a tiny card with directions on one side and a note about spicing up the holidays on the other. The gift was so economical, and light for shipping to friends around the world!Thank you for sharing, Leigh! This is a beautiful project. We especially like how easy these are to ship, as she notes. You wouldn't even need a box; you could ship them in oversized card envelopes. • Visit Leigh's sweet food blog: Kumquat Connection Related: Recipe: Spiced Apple Cider (Images: Leigh of Kumquat Connection)

Did a search, saw that there was only really 1 thread on getting skype contacts AFAIK. And that one is...oldish.
IF you want to throw your skype detes into the social whirlpool of MDA, feel free to do so on the dotted line. In this thread.
Like, for starters, I PERSONALLY just got an account on Skype. Like, just tonight. Which is why I'm so excited and posting this message, even though I doubt there'll be much in the way of replies.
For starters: hit me up at 'sleepytimegorillapress' if you ever need a long distance chat about...primal stuff? Anything? I dunno.
Hoping that at least a few people are interested in this idea. And, if for some reason this thread pisses off mods because of some transgression...I guess I'm sorry.

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- Forget about painting the town red. How about yellow?
While virtually every inanimate object, especially vehicles, in the Tennessee Valley appears to be suffering from malaria, it's only the dreaded pollen that has blanketed the area for the last week or so, creating misery for those with allergies, asthma and other respiratory illnesses.
The early dusting comes thanks to a combination of little rain and unseasonably warm temperatures that have caused trees and flowers to bloom earlier than normal.
"Most people blame the showy flowers, but it's the trees which are causing the pollen," said Daniel Shea, director of the City of Huntsville's Natural Resources and Environmental Management Department. "We normally have a high pollen count in March, but because we've gone a number of days without rain, I strongly suspect the count is much higher than normal."
Dr. Shashi Kumar, head of the Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Center of Huntsville, said cedar, oak and ash are creating a lot of eye irritation including redness, itching and swelling for allergy suffers, as well as nasal problems.
He said 20 percent of the U.S. population suffers from allergies, but Huntsville has a higher rate of about 30 percent of area residents experiencing pollen-related problems.
The pollen season started in February, about a month earlier than normal, said Kumar, and he is now seeing about 40 patients per day now. That's about double his yearly average of 20 per day, but not necessarily unusual during a high pollen count.
Shea said Debra Hopson, a certified pollen counter, normally fields questions about the pollen count. But she is attending a workshop this week and was unavailable.
Shea said Hopson, who is certified by the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, last did a count March 15. It showed the area with a 2,017 pollen count - and 300 is classified as "very high."
"So 2,017 is very, very high," said Shea.
He said this year is comparable to 2007, when the pollen count around Huntsville passed 5,000 during at least one reading.
"I hope it doesn't continue to unfold like it did in 2007 when we had a warm March and a late freeze," he said. "But it would not shock me if we see numbers like that again because of the conditions."
In the meantime, those suffering from sneezing, coughing and other related symptoms can take preventative measures, said Dr. Kumar, such as avoiding the outdoors in the morning.
"When the weather is dry and windy and we have a very high count, don't jog or do outdoor activities between 8 and 10 a.m.," he said.
Shea suggested replacing a heating/air system filter with one that is "high efficiency. It won't help those who have to be outside, but it will help those inside for the most part."
Kumar said three classical allergic diseases are allergic rhinitis (seasonal, year-round and a combination of the two), allergic asthma, and eczema (topical dermatitis on elbows and knees that can "march" from the skin to the nasal passage and into the lungs.)
While many medications treat the symptoms of allergies, they are not a cure. Kumar said weekly allergy shots are "the closet thing to a cure" and are natural enough even pregnant women can take them.
For allergy sufferers who are not fond of shots, Kumar suggested Claritin, Allegra or Zyrtec combined with a steroid nasal spray such as NasalCrom to relieve symptoms until the rain can clear away some of the yellow dust.
Shea said the next pollen count would likely be posted next week and can be found on the department's Web site huntsvilleal.gov/natres.

Bringing tool setup offline keeps the machine tool spindle doing what it's supposed to—making parts. Here, a boring tool is being adjusted to the required diameter setting.
The new edge control automatic runout feature is the easiest and fastest way to determine a tool's runout without any specific programming.
Reducing runout from 0.0005 inch to 0.0001 inch can almost double tool life, drastically reducing tool costs.
The demand for intricate, Swiss-type machining capabilities shows no signs of slowing. Industries that require small, complex and painstakingly accurate parts—such as technology and medical—continue to grow, and competition is fierce. To remain viable and cost effective, more manufacturers have invested in multi-axis, CNC Swiss-type lathes and turn-mill centers to cut cycle times and meet increasingly rigorous part tolerances. And it's no small investment.

This is your basic one-night-stand park. We have been here before and appreciate its proximity to the highway. The staff is terrific which goes a long way for making up for some of the less-than-desirable sites in the park. Everything functions fine and there is really nothing terribly wrong with the place...it's just a little worn as are some of the RV's and long-term residents in the park. - Paul Goodspeed

This looks like an old KOA. It was almost full. Sites are too small for large rigs - many were sticking in road in front or back. They seem busy so I don't know why they haven't spent money on keeping the place up. The paving is broken up, gravel is sparse. The utilities work well including limited cable. Staff was friendly. Its location near I-65 make a popular stop over spot, but in my opinion, not for an extended stay. - padre

Stayed here one night and will not stay again unless there are huge improvements in the area for 50 amp campers. We were put next to the horse stables and there were no facilities, horse manure was all over the area and the sites were gravel and dirt and was hard to get to due to the roads. Was not worth the price! Did not visit the rest of the park because it was approximately six miles from where we were located. Should have availability for 50 amp campers in the other section of the park. This park does not have my vote! - Larry_Jane2015

This is an Alabama State Park campground located 10-12 miles south of Birmingham. Convenient to shopping and restaurants from either the south or north park entrance. We spent 3 nights on the A side of the campground. Nice, tranquil setting. We were assigned a "pull along" site for our motorhome and toad. I wanted to get a site where trees would not block my roof mounted satellite and they gave me a site that worked well, however, the pad had deep tracks of broken asphalt. Full hookups with 30 amp electric service. Site A22. Paid $31.63 per night with taxes and fees. - Coopsecondact

Nice state park. Some sites are small for big rigs, but most will accommodate them. Sites are level and paved with asphalt. Sewer connections and electrical good location. Some sites do not have sewer. Most on the A side do. The B side looks like that sites are close and not all have sewer. Lots of trees and shade. During stay severe weather was expected. Rangers and staff came to every campsite with information about shelters, radio and TV stations to use for updated weather reports. They were very concerned about guest safety. We will stay again. - bowl2764

Average, older State Park. All except a few sites on the B side are pretty bad - too closely spaced and unlevel. The A side is better spacing, but still a little tight. Some sites on the A side are really unlevel front to back. Pull through sites are short. Watch out for "backward sites", there are quite a few.
This CG looks like it is a formerly "all tent" CG, and they ran utilities to some of the parking spaces for the tent sites. Typically, the RV parking space is narrow, and the "sitting area" for the associated RV site is separated from the RV. Sometimes as much as 100 feet. And, some of the tent sites that could not be converted are still there. So, it makes for a strange layout, because the tent sites are scattered among, and between, the RV sites.
The bathrooms are functional but small, in need of updating, but relatively clean.
Most sites in the A area are full hookup, but only 30 amp power. Water pressure was 40 psi, Verizon coverage = 3/5 bars, satellite availability is varied because of a heavy tree coverage. Good local TV stations.
Excellent large park with lots to do for the kids - beach, hiking/bike trails, BMX track, fishing, etc. Also, tons of shopping within close driving range of the park.
I will not stay at Oak Mountain again unless I need close access to Birmingham, and then, only if I can get a decent site on the A side. - Bama Camper

It is a parking lot with full hook ups. Assuming you can park next to your coach (we were able to) the sites are roomy and getting around is fine. If fully loaded and the spot next to you is taken by an RV then it is very tight, as the sites are not long enough for a coach and a car. Surprisingly, the WiFi worked well when we were there. They will be closing I believe in June for a year so not sure what the park will look like after the rebuild. - peddy dick

This "campground" is basically a parking lot they have added full hookups to. The price is extremely steep for what you are getting, and when we were here on a Saturday night, there was a some sort of event happening in the stadium next door that involved very loud (and bad) music until 10pm. I would have said it was fine for an overnight stay, but the noise from the event coupled with the fact that it's not that easy to get to, I would not recommend it. I would never want to stay here for an extended period of time, because there is no separation between sites. - Lee and Trace

This is a nice place to stopover as it is right off the interstate and located in a suburb of Birmingham. All sites are pull through. You have to unhook if you're towing and total length is longer than 45'. There are no bath houses currently (2016) but they will be available after the park reopens in 2017. Full hookups including 50 amp service but spotty Wifi at best.
This was posted at the park March 2, 2016: "The Hoover RV park will be temporarily closed effective June 1, 2016. The RV Park will reopen on May 1, 2017. The park is also sold out for the SEC Baseball Tournament which runs from May 20 - May 30, 2016. For any questions you can call (866) 466-8378." - A Dog Team

Long term and overnight campers in back in and pull thru camp sites. I was in a long pull thru so that my 40' Class A with a 18' towed enclosed trailer was still attached with FHU, 30/50A services. No cable and little OTA reception available in this rustic camp ground. Sites are graded, packed earth with natural grasses. Site was not level but I was able to level sufficiently to make it acceptable.
The host/owner is very patriotic, permitting active and former military discounts with unlimited stays. No longer affiliated with Good Sam but 50% discounts provided for any other membership organization.
Host/owner provides wood working tools to make themed (Christmas, Halloween, Easter, etc.) wooden character stands during those seasons. Very friendly and accommodating for camp site needs.
Our campsite was shaded with trees, long enough for my needs but somewhat close to neighbors. Not so close that you felt cramped together, but if your neighbor was outside talking with someone, you were automatically involved in the conversation!!!!
Easy access to Birmingham amenities. I would stay again for a night or two, but would look elsewhere for any longer stays. I appreciated the host/owner's support of all military personnel, active, retired or honorably discharged. - kihei7

Looks a bit "rustic" from the road, but it is a great value. Depending on your site, you may get some road noise. Didn't bother me but the wife is a light sleeper. Lots of fulltimers and some folks who get up early for work. Only a few kids, which I liked. Some FHU pullthrus but mostly backins. Friendly staff and friendly neighbors in the park. Spotty OTA tv reception. Wifi worked well and it was free. Laundry facility was clean, $2 to wash a load and $2 to dry a load. The store isn't much of a store, but the place isn't very far from civilization. Should have done some fishing or at least walked around the lake. Looks like a nice walk. If you come here via I-459 and your GPS tells you to get off at Exit 10, DON'T DO IT!!!! Yes, you can still get here from Exit 10, but it involves many more twists, turns, and narrow roads. - TH travelers

The couple at the office were the very nicest and our reception was excellent. We had a military veteran rate that was better than any we have every received. Very lovely setting, very quiet and peaceful, no frills, but we didn't need or expect them. We absolutely loved this place! easy in and easy out in our large RV, - ginger2you2

This is a huge wide open field of concrete slabs with a half dozen rusting and sagging ancient mobile homes scattered hither and yon. The park is located in a declining area and approached via a short road past a fenced car lot patrolled by two rottweilers. That would be clue number one. We stayed only long enough to identify an alternate RV park, I did not feel safe nor did I feel safe leaving my RV there. - Ric R

We read the last review and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, this place is more like the March 2009 review. This is more of a full time trailer park than an RV park. It is very close to the road, has no office or facilities and is in a more run down part of town. If you don't want to stay at Wal-Mart and need an overnight stop with water and sewer, then I would cautiously recommend this place. Our water did not work. - Sherylyn

We were reluctant to try this park because of the previous review. We are glad we came here anyway. Owner is friendly and apparently has been working VERY hard. Looks like all the spaces have new large concrete pads. Electric connections look new. Sites are large and level.Big-rig w/towing access. Plenty of room. Clean w/no garbage and no homeless and no bums. (we have seen parks like that). The $20 rate is full-hookups w/no discount. Looks like owner has worked hard to clean everything up. We would camp here again. Did not see a sign for park on main road so be careful not to miss it. - petersoldan

We were planning to stay 2 weeks but then called to go elsewhere for work, so only stayed 1 night. Teresa was super friendly, park was rustic but good walking path and lots of geese and ducks. Restrooms and laundry area needed a little work but were fine for use. Very hilly park but that was good since there was no pooling of water from rain. We would definitely stay again pending work area assigned. - witchey1

Winding road to campground/conference center was narrow but decent, but the road to the office was abysmal!!! If I'd had false teeth, they'd have been on the floor!!! No way of dodging potholes either. Site was adequate for an overnight stay (which was in a specific area for overnighters) but had to level with boards and couldn't pull forward to turn when leaving because of post, tree across the way, etc. Luckily we were able to back up. Would look for another option if ever in the area again. - KarenK

This is great state park. It has lots of amenities we love, like the mountain biking trails. It's a perfect place for mountain biking or hiking. Lots of interesting historical artifacts throughout the park. The park is huge and includes an area for festivals and fairs (although there was nothing going on when we were there). There's a small store onsite for supplies. Lots of trees in the park and creeks meandering throughout. You can spend at least an hour at the museum learning about the iron works in Alabama.
The campground itself has multiple loops, some with FHU. We had a spacious site in the nonFHU area. Services were fine, but you're far from any amenities outside the campground. This is one of our favorite state parks anywhere; we're looking forward to staying here for a longer time next time we're driving through Alabama. - tripster

Okay overnight stop for us, though it's a little past its prime. Friendly, helpful owner. Wi-Fi works well (after resetting router), good cable TV. Gravel roads in fairly good repair and our gravel site was "levelable" with a bit of lumber. Some have park model utility set-ups, but ours was standard RV style. Shaded, but pretty noisy. Kind of hard to find. It's behind the Love's truck stop. Apparently, the State has plans for the right-of-way, so the sign is pretty much invisible. Call park for directions. Wouldn't make a point of going back, but okay for a night. - Sonic

Very friendly host. That was the best park of this park. Many rundown permenent sites. We had a long pull through so we did not need to unhook, and we are about 55 feet long. It is tight getting through the park. It's about 1/4 mile off interstate, so a good overnight stop. There is a nice small pool. Cable TV was good. Way overpriced, even with the Good Sam discount. If this were a half price campground, we might consider staying here again, just for an overnight. They are building a Loves truck stop that backs right up to the park. This could add to the already loud noise from the interstate. - BLT101

Park is actually an ATV, dirt bike, and horse trail park. Campground is on paved road and each site has wide concrete pad. Very level. Of the 18 sites, 10 have full hook-ups. The motorcycle trails are several miles long and far enough away from campground that you rarely hear them. Has nice fishing lake and 1 mile walking trail around lake. Sites are large and very well spaced. They will allow your to have tent campers (friends) on your site for $10.00 per night. Price above reflects senior discount. Most sites are very wide with paved back in. A couple of pull-throughs. Only issue is campground is fairly new and very few trees for shade. Park ranger lives in campground part of the year and daily checked on all the campers. We will stay here again. - bowl2764


text: O.: IN MY OPINION: We have in Donald J. Trump a self-made business SUCCE$$. A man who knows how to get things done and achieve the end goal and be succe$$full at it. Trump may come across as mean spirited and speak out of turn about some of the issues of the day. We call that NOT being politically correct but in a "blue collar" sort of way. Is that really so bad? Will the sky fall down on top of us just because he is full of fire and conviction? NO! If we can survive a sly DEVIL like obama and an equally sly DEVIL like WJC head of the clinton crime family we can survive almost anything except...you got it, KILLERY. Here is a woman who lies when the truth is a better and more expedient alternative. However, as she is pathological in her lies and she believes she is actually telling the truth, she will do an say whatever she likes and feel blameless. Ask about ALL of the dozens of people who were once associates of the Clinton Crime Family and were close to their illegal dealings and conveniently committed suicide or died under mysterious circumstances...just days before they were to give their testimony against the CCF. Ask about the two boys who witnessed something they were not supposed in Alexander AR. connected to the CCF and were murdered and the state medical examiner called it suicide even though there was no gun and the boys were wrapped in covers and placed on the tracks for a train to run over them. Hillary can never and should NEVER be trusted with anything to do with the White House again. And for all of you who feel sorry for her, remember what "Hope and Change" did to "FUNDAMENTALLY" change America 7 1/2 years ago. CROOKED HILLARY will finish what obama started. Her losing this election has them petrified from the current CIC down to the lowliest campaign worker because they know their days are numbered when they lose. This must be how Al Capone felt when he finally read the handwriting on his own wall. DOOMED!!

With the threat of a Republican-led filibuster looming large, Majority Leader Harry Reid is faced with the unenviable task of ushering the Senate's version of the health care reform bill through his congressional chamber. On Wednesday, Reid started his woo-a-thon with an only slightly easier audience: moderate Democrats. —KA
AP via Google News:
Reid, D-Nev., summoned members of the Democratic rank and file to a late-afternoon closed-door caucus to show the bill he has spent weeks writing and rewriting.
He met in advance with Sens. Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana and Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas, Democratic moderates who have expressed reservations about the bill. "He is walking through the particulars with them," said Reid's spokesman, Jim Manley.
"We need 60 votes to get this bill to the floor."
With the support of two independents, Democrats have 60 seats, the precise number needed to choke off any Republican delaying tactics. None of the 40 Republicans is expected to defect on the first test vote, expected by weekend.
Ahead lie weeks — if not more — of unpredictable maneuvering on the Senate floor, where Reid and his allies will seek to incorporate changes sought by Democrats and repel attempts by Republicans to defeat the legislation and inflict a significant political defeat on the president.

When people tick off names associated with Philadelphia's first World Series victory in 28 years, here's one not usually mentioned with Howard, Hamels and Utley: Citizens Bank Park.
The park was such a smash hit when it opened in 2004 that ticket sales have averaged three million annually during the last five years, about double the number sold at Veterans Stadium.
Those extra fans ate more cheesesteaks, allowed the Phillies to charge more for advertising, and boosted team revenue from $97 million in 2003 to almost $200 million in 2008, according to Forbes Magazine.
And that, among other things, prompted Phillies chairman Bill Giles to open his wallet for the talent that broke one of baseball's longest losing streaks.

Chittagong: Police arrested Chittagong city Jamaat-e-Islami ameer ANM Shamsul Islam again immediately after his release from Chittagong central jail on Wednesday.
Chittagong additional police super (South) Mostafizur Rahman said the prison authorities freed Jamaat ameer Shamsul Islam from the Chittagong jail around 10:30 am on bail in two cases, including Jubo League activist Alamgir killing.
A police team of Lohagara police station arrested Shamsul Islam from the jail gate soon after he was released on bail granted by the High Court.
The Jamaat leader was again arrested in two other cases filed with Lohagara police station on charges of vandalizing Chumuti police camp in the upazila and torching a petrol pump during the January 5 general election, said additional police super Mostafizur Rahman.
On May 21, police arrested 21 Jamaat leaders, including Shamsul Islam, from Dewanbazar party office in the port city.

Seton Hall has clawed itself onto the national radar. Jerry Palm and Joe Lunardi have had the Pirates in their projected NCAA Tournament field, and the Pirates have picked up one vote in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches' Poll.
Jerry Carino believes an 11-1 non-conference schedule and a split versus West Virginia or Syracuse would land SHU in the top 25. We think the Pirates would have to be receiving a significant number of votes in both polls now for that projection to be accurate, but it is largely inconsequential.
The goal of this team is to qualify for the NCAA Tournament. SHU is now in the discussion, and has managed to avoid the type of non-conference loss that would take a match to the tournament resume. All SHU can do is be sure they win the two road games in front of them, and enter league play at 11-1. Do that, go at least .500 in the Big East, and SHU will be playing meaningful games in March.
At this point, all that looks within reason, which is a welcome change from the immediate past.

Salt Lake City -- Here's a look at the New Orleans Pelicans' game against the Utah Jazz on Friday night at the EnergySolutions Arena.
New Orleans Pelicans (32-43) vs. Utah Jazz (23-52)
Tip off: 8 p.m. Friday, EnergySolutions Arena, Salt Lake City.
TV/Radio: Fox Sports New Orleans, 105.3-FM, 1280-AM (Spanish)
Pelicans probable starters:
PG Brian Roberts 6-1, 173 ((9.5 points per game, 1.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 0.6 steals)
SG Tyreke Evans 6-6, 220 (14.2 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 4.9 apg, 1.2 spg)
SF Al-Farouq Aminu 6-9, 215 (7.4 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 1.5 apg, 1.1 spg)
PF Anthony Davis 6-10, 220 (21.1 ppg, 10.2 rpg, 1.6 apg, 2.8 bpg)
C Greg Stiemsma 6-11, 260 (2.7 ppg, 4.0 rpg, 0.7 apg, 1.0 bpg)
Jazz probable starters:
PG Trey Burke 6-1, 190 (13.8 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 5.2 apg, 0.8spg)
SG Gordon Hayward 6-8,220 (16.1 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 5.2 apg, 1.4 spg)
SF Richard Jefferson 6-7, 234 (10.3 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 1.6 apg, 0.6 spg)
PF Marvin Williams 6-9, 237 (9.3 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 1.2 apg, 0.4 bpg)
C Derrick Favors 6-10, 268 (12.9 ppg, 8.8 rpg, 1.2 apg, 1.4 bpg)Pelicans scouting report: The Pelicans are coming off one of their worst defensive performances of the season on Wednesday night against the Denver Nuggets. They gave up a season high for points allowed (137), field goals made (52), highest field-goal percentage (56.5), most points scored in the first half (71) and most points allowed in the first quarter (40). After the game, Pelicans coach Monty Williams looked visibly shaken and said since he's been with the Pelicans, none of his previous teams have given up those kind of numbers. Against the Jazz, the Pelicans must box out, close off driving lanes and provide better help defense. Repeatedly when Nuggets guard Ty Lawson or forward Kenneth Faried raced past the first defender, the Pelicans' help defense reacted too slowly. When the Pelicans have played on the road this season, they have not been able to match their energy or execution they have when they play at home. Stiemsma and Alexis Ajinca must play with more passion. At 7-feet-2, Ajinca had a shot attempt in the lane blocked by 6-foot guard Aaron Brooks.
Jazz scouting report: Utah has not played since a 92-83 loss to the New York Knicks on Monday. But the Jazz has lost 11 of its last 12 games. The Jazz's biggest has been offense. It is averaging just 94.3 points a game, second lowest in the NBA. On its current five-game losing streak, the Jazz has not scored more than 96 points. Twice during the streak, they have scored under 90 points. Utah is making only 44.1 percent of their shots, which is the fifth lowest in the league. Since March 10, the Jazz's only victory came against Orlando, 89-88.But the Jazz has beaten the Pelicans at the EnergySolutions Arena this season. In November, Utah won 111-105 after it had opened the season with eight consecutive losses.
Key matchup: Evans vs. Hayward. Evans will have to make defense a priority against Hayward because he is an effective shooter coming off screens. The last time the Pelicans played the Jazz on March 28, Evans led with 22 points and 15 assists. But Hayward was the Jazz's leading scorer with 21 points. Evans will rely on his driving ability, which is likely to give Hayward problems.
Who's hot: Evans.
Despite the Pelicans' dismal 137-130 loss to Nuggets, Evans scored a team-high 27 points and grabbed eight rebounds. In 16 starts, Evans has averaged 20.7 points, 5.3 rebounds and 6.2 assists.
Jazz: Alex Burks.
He has averaged 14.5 points and 5.0 rebounds in the previous two games. He was on the inactive list for the March 28 game against the Pelicans at the Smoothie King Center.
Who's not: Aminu. He has not scored more than eight points in four of the past five games. Aminu went 0-of-3 from the field against the Nuggets. That's not what you do when you are trying to get a possible contract extension because his current one-year deal expires at the end of this season.
Jazz: Burke. Burke has made only 3-of-15 shots for a combined seven points in the previous two games. In the Jazz 92-88 loss to Knicks this past Monday, Burks scored five points on 2-of-8 shooting and committed three turnovers.
Injury report:
Pelicans: Guard Eric Gordon (tendinitis left knee) day to day.Forward Anthony Davis (back spasms) day to day. Forward Ryan Anderson
(herniated disc) out. Point guard Jrue
Holiday (had surgery performed on stress fracture in right tibia) out
for the remainder of the season. Center Jason
Smith (knee surgery) out for remainder of season.
Jazz: C Andris Biedrins (left shoulder sprain) out.
Notes: Davis was listed by the Pelicans on Thursday as day to day after suffering from back spasms and playing just 10 minutes against the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night. . . .The Pelicans have won two of the last three games against the Jazz, but they have lost four straight at Utah, which dates back to last season. . . .The Jazz is 15-22 at home, 7-15 against Western Conference teams. . . .The Pelicans are 8-32 when they trail after the third quarter. . . .New Orleans has lost 19 straight road games to opponents in the Northwest Division, which includes Utah. . . . The Jazz has the worst record in the Western Conference and it has won only eight road games this season.
Next opponents: Pelicans at Trail Blazers, Sunday. Jazz at Warriors, Sunday.

Read the thread here 'Question about samba on solaris x86', especially
Daniel Rock's reply on 041906. Might be helpful. WRT Samba, he suggests
.. MIT Kerberos 5
.. OpenSSL (can use the one in Solaris 10 though)
.. Cyrus SASL
.. OpenLDAP
Whether or not this might be related to a pure LDAP setup, I can't say,
but on Linux (Kubuntu), I've had problems with LDAP, which didn't seem
to work the same way as the openLDAP(SSL/SSH) we use everywhere else.
based on my experiences with different systems, I'll prefer using
openSSL/LDAP/SSH everywhere, to keep configs identical.
Kind regards,
Mogens V.

Very pretty! I am so happy for you!
How are you feeling?
OH that's gorgeous! I haven't seen the front of it yet! I'm so happy for you hun!
Thank you!
I am feeling okay. I am having a hard time keeping my blood pressure down and the infection seemed to be gone, but now it has come back. They already told me that if it did, it could mean a hospital stay and they may have to take the gland out or have to make more incisions for a larger drainage area. I won't know anything until Tuesday. I am taking sitz baths still hoping that it will keep the incision that was made over a week ago open to keep it draining.
Quoting cafay:
Very pretty! I am so happy for you!
How are you feeling?

text: India's home series against New Zealand, their first of a new season, has a significance far beyond what a short two-Test contest between the eighth-ranked team and one that, a year ago, was the top team in the world. After losing 4-0 in England last summer, India hosted West Indies and won 2-0. Spirits were raised, batsmen got back into the runs, wickets flowed from R Ashwin's windmill action like sweet filter coffee and 'Here we come, Australia' was the general mood as India set off for their toughest assignment of the year. You know the rest. This team, hit by VVS Laxman's retirement after being named in the squad, needs a boost to its confidence. After the ICC World Twenty20 in September are visits from England and Australia â with a short limited-overs series against Pakistan sandwiched in between â and the ineptness that India displayed in their previous eight overseas Tests, each ending in defeat, cannot be allowed to continue. This Indian side must seek restoration. For this to happen, the players have to work harder at what they do and show more commitment than they did in England and Australia. Playing a weak side missing Daniel Vettori on home pitches suggests that the hosts have the upper hand, and anything less than a series victory will be unacceptable to Indian fans. The aim must be to win big big over New Zealand and climb back to the top of the ICC Test rankings. Come Thursday morning and most eyes will be firmly trained on India's team sheet and especially on a couple names penciled in for batting duty. Cheteshwar Pujara and Suresh Raina are almost certain to feature, unless the management goes radical and shunts Virender Sehwag down the order and hand Ajinkya Rahane a debut as opener. Who will fill the voids created by Laxman and Rahul Dravid's retirements is a matter of great debate, with the leading candidates being Pujara and Virat Kohli. Pujara needs to be given the faith that is indeed a long-term prospect. Kohli, India's ODI vice-captain, has made the No.3 spot his own in ODI cricket where he is averaging 73.28 this year. He is in the form of his young life and there is plenty of merit in pushing him up from the middle order. If not No. 3, then Kohli should be moved up one place to occupy Laxman's spot. That would mean a place for either Raina or S Badrinath at No. 6. Just what Sachin Tendulkar will feel when he looks at his name between those of cricketers much younger and far greener than the next youngest, Sehwag, is anyone's guess. For New Zealand, the main area of concern is the batting. More at ease on seam-friendly tracks at home, New Zealand batsmen have often been found wanting in slow and slow surfaces in the subcontinent where quality spin is a stern examination of technique and temperament. Ross Taylor and Brendom McCullum will be expected to shoulder an immense burden, as will Martin Guptill, but will need sizeable hands from Kane Williamson and Kruger van Wyk to have any chance of improving on a poor record in India. This is a team lacking star players, and one that carries men who weren't in form during the 2-0 loss in the West Indies. Of the current 16-man squad, only eight have played Test cricket in India â Taylor, McCullum, Guptill, Chris Martin, Jeetan Patel, Tim Southee, BJ Watling and Kane Williamson. Conditions in India will be a test for inexperienced batsmen like Daniel Flynn and Wyk, coming off a poor tour of the West Indies, and for the bowlers like Trent Boult, Doug Bracewell and Neil Wagner who have been chosen for their ability to swing the ball. It will be a test of the batsmen's ability to get down and dirty, which they collectively failed to do in the Caribbean and which successful visiting sides in India have managed to do. Those who have not played in the subcontinent will also have to overcome the weather and a team that will be playing in familiar conditions. The batting aside, the major challenge is to take 20 wickets in a Test.The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium at Uppal has only hosted New Zealand once, back in 2010-11. The visitors took the better half of a draw in which McCullum hit 225 and Guptill (85) and Williamson (69) scored runs. Bangalore's M Chinnaswamy Stadium has not been so kind for New Zealand, but none of the current lot featured in heavy defeats in 1988 (by 127 runs) and 1995 (by eight wickets). Taylor has talked of how despite not having long to acclimatize, New Zealand can take confidence from their previous tour and how "India is a familiar place" for several players. However, it's hard to see a complete reversal of fortune. Barring a truly sub-bar performance from India, New Zealand face another difficult tour of the country.

Digital Multimedia Evidence Processing Laboratory -Training
Thomas C. Christenberry, Director of Public Safety Education, School for Adult Learning, University of Indianapolis
or many television viewers and forensic science enthusiasts, shows like CSI and the spin-off television shows CSI: Miami and CSI: New York are fun to watch and, with their various characters and story lines, continue to fascinate viewers of all demographics. Viewers anxiously marvel at the forensic technology, the latest scientific methodology, and the amazing deductive skills of the forensic specialist. Best of all, the whole case is completed in just one hour.
Well, forensic magic does not normally occur in the span of a onehour TV drama; instead, it takes many hours, days, and weeks of painstaking science. A significant part of the scientific process is the extensive training associated with the field of video forensics—that is where the Law Enforcement and Emergency Services Video Association (LEVA) and its strategic partnership with the University of Indianapolis in Indianapolis, Indiana, come in.
The University of Indianapolis and LEVA signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) in fall 2006 to establish a Digital Multimedia Evidence Processing Laboratory for the specific purpose of training law enforcement personnel with the most sophisticated and up-to-date technology in the field of forensic video analysis. The laboratory was officially opened in January 2007 and since that time, LEVA has conducted more than 23 classes, with six more classes scheduled for 2010.
The LEVA lab is virtually dedicated to training. Any requests from the public and private sector to use the lab for evidence processing are referred to local law enforcement agencies or specified LEVA-trained forensic video experts. However, the lab can be converted into a video processing center during a national emergency if a massive amount of video needs to be examined. In such a case, LEVA-certified analysts and technicians would populate the lab around the clock to assist law enforcement.
The Concept of a Training Facility Develops
The early LEVA training was conducted at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Academy at Quantico, Virginia; then, in fall 2004, LEVA forged a partnership with the University of Indianapolis to host the forensic video analysis training in ad hoc classrooms at the university. This initial partnership required that LEVA ship all the various technical equipment to the university and then assemble it during the weekend before the class began. Law enforcement students were required to work on systems with different versions of the required software. The university and LEVA began to discuss the feasibility of establishing a permanent home on the university campus with state-of-the art equipment and the latest versions of the software.
LEVA had other partners who shared the vision of creating such a unique training facility. The actual non-linear, digital editing systems were leased from Massachusetts-based Avid Technology, Inc., and the highly specialized software with the forensic tools was purchased from Ocean Systems in Maryland.
In January 2007, the Digital Multimedia Evidence Processing Laboratory was the culmination of that vision and dedicated effort of all its partners. From the perspective of LEVA, it was extremely important to have a permanent lab facility to conduct its training programs and to use the latest in audiovisual teaching equipment. One such technology is the use of the RoboTel system, which allows the instructor to interact individually or with a group of students at the workstations. From the instructor's point of view, the ability to observe and provide specific direction to students on their projects from the instructor's station is invaluable to the learning process. The integration of the permanent facility offered the ability to incorporate the most upto-date technology at the learning stations with the large data storage capabilities of the Avid LANshare server. The permanent facility allowed for regular system upgrades and the installation of peripheral training equipment.
Academic Standing
A significant benefit for LEVA is the academic association with the University of Indianapolis. LEVA developed three core courses: Level 1 – Forensic Video Analysis and the Law, Level 2 – Digital Multimedia Evidence Processing, and Level 3 – Advanced Forensic Video Analysis and the Law. Each of the core courses has been reviewed by the University of Indianapolis's School for Adult Learning, which approved the awarding of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for successful completion of the courses.
Some students request university credit for the courses completed, and the University of Indianapolis has approved these core courses for credit. Furthermore, students who successfully complete LEVA's Level 1, 2, and 3 courses are conferred as LEVA Certified Forensic Video Technicians. They can progress to the level of LEVA Certified Forensic Video Analyst with additional training and demonstrated competence.
Over the past three years, the Digital Multimedia Evidence Processing Laboratory has been a tremendous asset to the University of Indianapolis. The development generated an increased interest and funding for the university curriculum, as well as provided a stateof-the-art training facility used by faculty, staff, and students. On the day of the dedication and opening of the lab, the university received funding from a benefactor who directed the funds to be used to provide education and training for those involved in the criminal justice and forensic programs. For example, one student enrolled in the criminal justice program was able to attend the Level 1 – Forensic Video Analysis and the Law and successfully complete the course. Several faculty members also have requested to participate in some of the upcoming LEVA core courses.
The funding also enabled the establishment of LEVA mini-grants for faculty and staff to conduct specific projects in the lab. The lab has been used extensively by the Communication Department faculty in the development of public service projects and other television and radio projects.
The lab continues to generate excitement and interest in the surrounding community, with requests for use coming from professional associations, corporate risk management personnel, private security, and schools. Secondary and elementary school students are interested in the "wow" factor and a potential career in forensic science. On October 15 through October 18, 2009, the 40th Bouchercon World Mystery Convention held its event in Indianapolis and the group scheduled several attendee tours of the Digital Multimedia Evidence Processing Laboratory. Corporate security personnel also are interested in the training and the use of the forensic video analysis systems.
Finally, the strategic partnership forged by LEVA and the University of Indianapolis has been a tremendous success. LEVA has found a permanent home with the needed technological support while the university has been able to expand its learning opportunities for faculty, staff, and students.

I don't own this stock but I'm really curious about this huge smackdown on the great EPS and Rev. beat. What would have happened if they missed a little bit?
The only negative I've heard so far is slowing infrastructure revenues. Perhaps that's it? Market is assuming that all their over performance was due to the drought and can't be counted on in upcoming quarters?
There's a small article in IBD about the irrigation business being called "tough" right now.
I own VMI, not LNN, but VMI has been selling off as well of late.
Semi-Fertile Outlook
While he didn't offer specific figures, President and CEO Rick Parod commented on Lindsay's outlook. According to Parod, "Positive farmer sentiment along with historically high farm incomes and commodity prices provide a solid backdrop for strong irrigation sales. However, expectations of record crop planting and improved yields are leading to projections of lower commodity prices, which could lead to reduced demand over the balance of 2013 and into 2014. The environment for infrastructure sales remains difficult, so we are focused on operating efficiencies and expense controls to position the segment for improved profitability as the market strengthens."
Commenting on the company's long-term prospects, Parod noted, "Overall the long-term drivers for the company of population growth, expanded food production, efficient water use, and improved transportation infrastructure remain positive."

Good comments. Agree -- interesting market reaction. Don't think drought was only reason for last yr's outperformance. If I recall, commodity prices were aready quite high even with record planting before the drought. The drought was icing on the cake (not to mix foodstuffs).
One add to guidance -- it was mentioned that the large Midde East irrigation project had lower margins. Some might have viewed taking a big low-margin job negatively, even if the goal is a positive (brand recognition).
I have no idea why this is selling off so strongly?? I bought a full position at 85.49. The conference call was generally positive except for the smaller part of their infrastructure business. Go figure?

Randall Ritchey at Too Many Men on the Site was able to sit down with St. Louis Blues 2011 second round pick Joel Edmundson who said this about his Moose Jaw defensive partner Rangers 2010 first round pick Dylan McIlrath…
"Playing with Dylan was a great experience because he's been to a pro camp and has been taught a lot of stuff that I am still learning. He was a great teacher for me and I looked up to him a lot. But we're both huge bodies on the blue line with heavy shots and we both love taking the body and showing our physical game."
…great to hear that McIlrath is not only able to absorb what is being taught but he's able to pass that knowledge along to younger players. Which will make him an even bigger asset for the Rangers moving forward.

Home for…35? Behemoth Jersey Shore Beach House Remodel
From Margaret Everton on May 28, 2010 in Newark
With five grown children and a growing brood of grandchildren, Ann and Mark Baiada purchased this spectacular beach house in Avalon hoping for more family time and an irresistible gathering spot by which to lure them in. After a few large renovations, the home now sleeps 25 comfortably with the possibility of an on-site cottage being turned into space for 10 more.
There was a rich history etched into the 100-year-old Victorian when the Baiada's purchased it. In 1892, the land was sold to a local woman for a dollar, who later sold it to a man from Philadelphia. He used the land to build a fishing cottage around 1910. Despite the winds and rough storms that passed through the area over the years, the original structure pulled through virtually unscathed. From 1952 onward, the home has seen 10 different owners. The Baida's decided to call it their own in 1999.
First up on the renovations list: expand in order to house the entire family. This first phase included adding four bathrooms, a great room, master bedroom suite and laundry room. With more rooms to decorate, Ann called in interior designer Grace Kelly for some much-needed assistance. She was able to keep with the home's original design style while adding a light and airy feel.
The next phase was geared more towards the outdoors: a pool and patio renovation, the addition of an outdoor kitchen, and even a pool house. The whole clan was given a prime spot to exercise, relax, and of course, have a little fun.
Let's be honest. If everyone had a gathering place like this, family time wouldn't seem quite so awful, would it? I didn't think so.

"[I'm doing] 100 push ups every day. Then I meet up with The Situation. We have a crunch off," the late night host joked Monday at the Going the Distance premiere in Hollywood.
He acknowledges he probably wouldn't be able to beat Jersey Shore star, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, but Fallon's goal before the big ceremony is simply to "look fit."
"I can't be out of breath," Fallon, 35, told PEOPLE, adding that he's also hoping to achieve that Hollywood glow.
"I've just been waking up every day, having breakfast by the pool. I try to get tan," he says about getting ready. "But I'm Irish so I burn bright red – lobster red. But then it becomes a nice cinnamon toast color."
But beauty regimen and looks aside, Fallon isn't sweating the actual hosting duties. "It's a big gig, but I host for a living now. I'm more looking forward to doing it. You get to see all of your favorite stars in the same room. It's fun," he says.
On the agenda for the ceremony? "Fun, class. I want to keep it fast," says Fallon. "I want everyone to have a good time."

EAST RUTHERFORD — After the Giants' dismal 0-5 start, things can't get worse for Big Blue fans, right?
They can if you're a season ticketholder trying to sell your seats.
Just weeks after SeatGeek reported the New York Giants were fetching the highest resale prices in the NFL, the online marketplace says the average price to a MetLife Stadium home game has tanked.
The online resale marketplace this week reports prices have fallen 32 percent since opening weekend, when the average price was $306. After the team's fifth loss to Philadelphia Sunday, the average price was down to $209.
The only other team to experience a similar decline? The Pittsburgh Steelers, who have gone from 7th to 11th, according to SeatGeek.
Razorgator, another online marketplace, offers a slightly rosier perspective: Average prices for the winless Giants have dropped each week, but not as much as the prices for the other winless teams. Tops in that category are the Jaguars and the Steelers.
Despite the slide, Razorgator's Christi Goza reports the Giants tickets are the fifth most expensive in the NFL. Goza chalks this up to the costly New York market, the team's loyal fan base, and the fact that the "other team" (The Jets) is struggling, even it it has the better record.
"And (the Giants) still have popular road teams coming to New York on their schedule," Goza added, including Green Bay, Dallas and Seattle.
Goza offers one more startling statistic: In the No. 6 spot in the List of Most Expensive Tickets — the spot right behind the Giants — are the 5-0 Broncos, the team led by the other Manning quarterback.

Ongoing reports by the Tribune Chronicle illustrate how the proliferation of so-called massage parlors continues to be a blight on Trumbull County. Even a series of law enforcement raids in 2012 was not enough to solve the problem.
That's why I worked extensively with State Rep. Teresa Fedor (D-Toledo) to pass human trafficking legislation that will crack down on massage parlors that engage in prostitution and other illegal activity.
I proposed two provisions that strengthened House Bill 130. The first makes it illegal to advertise for massage services with the explicit or implicit promise or suggestion of sexual activity. The second provision empowers local communities by giving them the flexibility to enact tougher rules when necessary.
I'm pleased that HB 130 passed both chambers of the Ohio General Assembly with unanimous bipartisan support. This legislation will help improve our community and our state by giving law enforcement more tools to protect women.
