Yankees Agree With Youkilis on $12 Million Deal, MLB.Com Reports
The New York Yankees and free-agent third baseman Kevin Youkilis have agreed on a one-year contract worth $12 million, MLB.com reported, without saying where it got the information.
Youkilis, 33, would help the Yankees offset the loss of Alex Rodriguez, who will miss the start of the 2013 Major League Baseball season while recovering from hip surgery and may be out until July.
Youkilis, a three-time All-Star, spent his first eight seasons with the Boston Red Sox before being traded to the Chicago White Sox in June. Limited by a back injury, he hit a combined .235 with 19 home runs and 60 runs batted in for the Red Sox and White Sox in 2012.
Youkilis, who had a $12.25 million salary last season, has hit .283 with 148 homers and 610 RBIs in nine major league seasons.

Trade disputes often have a nasty way of becoming trade wars.
On average, the sun shines in Sacramento, California, 265 days a year. Well, it looks like even more clear skies and sunny days ahead as the state wrapped up its legislative session on a high note.
At a time of heightened tensions in the Middle East – coupled with rising gasoline prices across the United States – there is finally some good news on the energy front. America's solar energy industry is currently on pace to achieve a record-shattering year.
President Obama's recent decision to install solar panels atop the White House is just the latest example of his strong commitment to U.S. leadership in solar energy and the jobs it will create here at home.
The member companies of the Solar Energy Industries Association strongly share that commitment. Covering every aspect of the solar pipeline, they employ more than 120,000 Americans – providing savings for homeowners, power for our military and a cleaner world for future generations.
All across the United States, rooftop solar panels are popping up on homes, businesses and schools like mushrooms in a forest, and utility-scale solar projects are bringing huge amounts of clean energy into our communities. Why? Well, among other things, consumer choice in America is something that we all hold very sacred.
The U.S. solar industry is booming. "U.S. [Residential] Installation Frequency Hits One Every Four Minutes," according to a recent article in PV-tech.org. That puts the US residential solar industry on track to install 128,000 systems in 2013, according to GTM Research (Q213). We have come a long way since 2007 when I sold the first residential solar power purchase agreement to a homeowner in Redwood City, CA.
When the U.S. Department of Energy held its first Solar Decathlon on the National Mall in 2002, Americans were growing nervous about energy issues for the first time in decades. Natural gas prices had skyrocketed, California had just recovered from rolling blackouts, and the events of 9/11 and our continued dependence on foreign energy sources were at the foreground in our minds.
Every day, I talk to groups and reporters about the amazing growth of solar all across the United States. But for the past week, there has been more buzz than ever about America's solar industry because of the decision by President Obama to install solar panels on the White House.
Solar power is one of the cleanest, safest, and most abundant domestic energy sources available. In addition to helping power our homes, schools, and businesses, the U.S. solar industry strives to be a leader in sustainability among energy producers by ensuring environmental and social responsibility along the entire solar supply chain.
August 14, 2003, was a dark day in U.S. history – in a lot of different ways.
It started off as a quiet Thursday. Then a single tree limb in Ohio came crashing down, touching off a power outage which cascaded across eight states and parts of Canada, leaving 50 million Americans in the Northeast in the dark. Commuters were stranded. Businesses closed. People sweltered in the heat. And the U.S. economy took a huge beating, losing an estimated $10 billion.

Against Obama. This is unprecidented. These guys know, the Soviets can't wait, if Barry gets a 2nd term, your security is at stake. Just like here on the mean streets of Baltimore. There are beautiful, trendy, neighborhoods in which to live. However, if you can't feel safe, how can you enjoy the environs. Tonight, there is a guy in a coma. His head kicked in, fractured in 3 places. A mid afternoon beatdown by 5 thugs in front of Harborplace. National Security, just like personal security is paramount.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
I saw that article too. Something like only 7 high-ranking officers (Powell for one) supported "O".
Powell is obviously backing Barry for being the first Black President. He is not being honest with himself, or anyone else.
More last ditch #$%$. Do not let these low lives control your vote. This election is the last time the boss whites, uneducated elites get their way. Next election 2016, and beyond their tent of voters will be the size of a pup tent and shrinking.

Rainbow on the Wall
by Ferida Wolff
I was reading an article in the Sunday Philadelphia Inquirer about Winnie-the-Pooh. I remember the Pooh books. Many nights were spent with my kids tucked in and cozy as we followed Christopher Robin and the adventures of Pooh Bear, Tigger, Piglet, Owl, Rabbit, Eeyore, Kanga and little Roo.
There is actually a place in the English countryside that was the birthplace of those wonderful stories by A.A. Milne, a magical place for him and his son. They found a spot in nature that allowed them to transcend the everyday and let their imaginations fly. Milne looked at the hillside, the bog, the trees, and the woods and found possibilities for stories and exciting explorations.
Nature is a source of pleasure for the senses. It often delights me with the brilliant colors of flowers, the beauty of its myriad birds, the rustling of fall leaves. We tend to think of nature as existing only outside but it has a way of engaging us no matter where we are.
Recently, I found a rainbow inside my house. The morning sunlight had come in through the pane on our front door, bounced off the beveled glass in the hall cabinet, and projected a rainbow onto the wall at just the position where I would see it as I came down the stairs. I gasped and felt my whole spirit open up. I immediately imagined fairies giggling behind me, a story in the making.
Finding the unexpected in the usual energizes us. It challenges our brains and helps us expand in creative ways. A rainbow is always arresting but having one inside the house was certainly a perception-teaser.
The rainbow on the wall didn't last long but it set up all that was to come in a special light. I shared the experience with friends throughout the day and found that it elicited joy in others, as well. Was it a cosmic reminder to see the grandeur in the ordinary? To see it, perhaps, in ourselves?
Take a peek at Pooh corner:

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) - Jamall Robinson scored 15 points and Dion Nesmith and Moussa Kone each added 14 as Hofstra cruised to an 80-58 win over Fairleigh Dickinson in a season opener for both teams Sunday.
Nesmith hit five of his six field goal attempts, including Hofstra's only two 3-pointers of the game. Kone grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds, giving him a double-double.
Darren Payen was the fourth Hofstra player in double figures, finishing with 12 points on a perfect 6-for-6 shooting.
The Knights held an early 9-8 lead four minutes into the game, but couldn't keep pace with Hofstra, shooting just 30.2 percent. They were led by Sidney Sanders Jr. with 13 points and Scooter Gillette contributed 12.

There are a couple of nightclubs nearby, but I never heard a thing. Also direct trains to Zurich Airport. There are trams and buses nearby & local supermarkets to stock up from.

not sure what the rules are here tbh, but, as long as you've got a key, you could borrow a dvd off a friend, or, if there was any cough*other*cough way to get a copy of the dvd. considering you have bought it, and have a key, its not exactly a big deal.
I mayb off post but I did a direct download from the EA Store and I have of course a Vista 64bit version, any ideas on how I can get the x86 version. I can't find the installaton package anywhere on my computer
its the way EA download works to stop you sharing the files round all you can try doing it logging into ea's site from a 32 bit machine and see if it will let you redownload and install it again.
ea are taking alot of crap over the system they use as basicaly after a while if your pc crashes and you loose the install you would have to pay to get the game again as they only give access to the files for a limited time.
Hey my friend has a 64bit system and all she did was to open up the dvd and used the HGL_x86 Windows installer package. Now for some reason it wouldn't launch from the quick lauch that's added to the desktop so she had to goto the folder itself and launch the game from there, she says it works fine
but it wont update as the patch will always detect the x64 pc and try to patch the x64 version that isnt installed.

California's record drought hasn't been sweet to honeybees, and it's creating a sticky situation for beekeepers and honey buyers.
By rejecting demands for a nine-digit payment to save kidnapped American journalist James Foley, the United States upheld a policy choice that some European and Arab governments have long found too wrenching to make themselves: ruling out ransom to rescue any citizen held captive by militant organizations, in hopes the tough stand will make Americans safer from kidnapping and attacks by extremists.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Thursday pressed for a more aggressive U.S. military response in Iraq to combat Islamic state militants, including a sustained air campaign, and signaled he would support sending American ground troops.

Jackie Chan apologized to the public Wednesday over his son's detention on drug charges in Beijing, saying he's ashamed and saddened.
A white police officer whose shooting death of an unarmed black 18-year-old ignited racial upheaval in a St. Louis suburb has been characterized as either an aggressor whose deadly gunfire constituted a daylight execution or a law enforcer wrongly maligned for just doing his job.

Cruz Virginia Campaign Leader Rails Against 'Socialized Education System' And Homosexuality's 'Prevention Of The Seed'
SUBMITTED BY: Miranda Blue, Wednesday 01/06/2016, 11:36am
Every year, Republican activist and Religious Right pseudo-historian David Barton gathers conservative state legislators at a "ProFamily Legislator's Conference" to learn about model legislation along with "current public policy issues in a manner that honors our Judeo-Christian heritage and the vision of our Founding Fathers." At last year's conference in November, one of the speakers at Barton's conference was Cynthia Dunbar, a former member of the Texas State Board of Education who has admitted that her goal on the board was to correct a "...

Last month, the Texas State Board of Education approved a set of social studies textbooks after some disputes between Christian Right members of the board and scholars who had reviewed the texts. Although experts recruited by the Texas Freedom Network to review the proposed texts managed to convince textbook companies to remove some objectionable material, some claims demanded by conservative members of the board remained, including assertions that Moses was a direct influence on the founding of the U.S. In an article for Religion Dispatches today, one of TFN's reviewers, David R....

The Texas State Board of Education approved several dozen social studies textbooks after a contentious battle over their treatment of subjects including climate change, the role of slavery in the Civil War, Islam, and biblical influence in America's founding. One major publisher, however, withdrew a book from consideration, saying that it was unable to meet all the standards set by the school board. The Texas Freedom Network, which live-blogged today's vote, said that much problematic material had been removed from the proposed textbooks, including climate denial and "... MORE

Four years ago, the Texas State Board of Education made national headlines when it worked with Religious Right activists like David Barton to create a set of new textbook standards that played up the role of Christianity in the nation's founding and played down the role of slavery in the Civil War, among other questionable changes. According to our friends at the Texas Freedom Network , a new set of social studies textbooks up for approval from the state school board contain many flaws that "reflect the ideological beliefs of politicians on the state board rather than sound...

At a debate in Fort Worth on Monday, a Republican candidate for the Texas state board of education warned that the board is currently "using your tax dollars to brainwash our children into socialist issues and ideas." The candidate, Lady Theresa Thombs, also decried "people from socialist higher education" who support the teaching of evolution, a subject still hotly debated in the Texas Education Agency. "We know we didn't come from monkeys!" she exclaimed. Thombs made her remarks at a debate hosted by a Tea Party group, the 912 Project Fort... MORE

This afternoon, the Texas State Board of Education gave its final approval to a set of biology textbooks that include scientifically sound teachings about evolution, rebuffing a campaign by creationists to include "biblical principles" in science texts. However, the board delayed its approval of one of the books until a board of experts reviews the complaints of anti-evolutionists. The Texas Freedom Network, which has been fighting to keep science in the state's science textbooks, called the vote a "huge win for science education" and noted that "... MORE

People For the American Way joined a campaign led by the Texas Freedom Network to deliver 300,000 petitions to the state board urging them to keep creationism out of science classes. The next month, TFN reported that none of the 14 major textbook publishers had bowed to pressure to include biblical... MORE

Safety Violations Lead to $149,000 Penalty against Houston Postal Service Branch
DALLAS - The failure of a U.S. Postal Service Houston branch to protect employees from unguarded machine parts and other safety violations has resulted in citations and proposed penalties of $149,000 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
OSHA has cited the Franklin Street main branch facility in Houston with two alleged willful, two alleged serious and one alleged repeat violations resulting from an investigation that began Dec. 28, 2001.
The Labor Department has cited the Postal Service with alleged willful violations for failing to protect employees from the exposed parts of horizontal shafts, for failing to provide machine guarding from rotating parts and for failing to use machine guarding to protect employees from ingoing nip-points on a conveyor belt. A willful violation is committed with an intentional disregard of or plain indifference to the requirements of the OSHA Act and regulations.
The two alleged serious violations were for failing to maintain fixed ladders in a safe condition and failing to securely fasten machine guards to the frame of the machines. A serious violation is one that could cause death or serious physical harm to employees when the employer knew or should have known of the hazard.
A repeat violation was for failing to maintain sufficient safe clearance in aisles and passageways where mechanical equipment is used. A repeat violation is one in which the employer has been cited during the past three years for substantially similar infractions of the law.
Employers and employees with questions regarding workplace safety and health standards can call the nearest OSHA office. OSHA's toll-free hotline may be used to report workplace accidents, fatalities, or situations posing imminent danger to workers. The number is 1-800-321-6742.
The U.S. Postal Service has 15 working days from receipt of the citations to comply, request an informal conference with the area director, or to contest the citations and penalties before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review commission.
U.S. Labor Department news releases are accessible on the Internet at www.dol.gov.

- - 2013 Flow M9 or 2012 NXT-AT's? (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/bindings/54073-2013-flow-m9-2012-nxt-ats.html)
2013 Flow M9 or 2012 NXT-AT's?
I need new bindings bad. The 2013 flow line-up has been redone and the M9's look awesome. But, would you rather pay $220 for 2013 M9's or buy some 2012 Nxt's for just over $200? I've been eyeballing the M9's for a year or so because the flex rating isn't as stiff as the Nxt's. I mostly ride the groomers, some jibbing and a little flirting with boxes and rails. I would like a flow binding that can be used in the park sometimes but stiff enough to cut through the icy crap I usually ride through. What would you buy?
Go with the NXT's if the price is right. I have NXT's,M9's,The Five's(hybrid) and Flight 3's. I love flows and will NEVER switch!

I would go for the M9's. Just a more versatile binding in my experience.
I've been riding on mushy Flites for a few years now. Either the M9 or NXT would be my first good pair of bindings but I don't want to go TOO stiff. They are going on a 2012 GNU carbon credit which has way more flex than any of the crap I learned to ride on. I'm leaning toward the M9's.

10 things to know about triathlons
On a freezing cold Sunday afternoon in February, I was doing a water workout with a dozen friends in a local indoor pool when Karen Beebe, 41, of Harborcreek, asked me if I'd ever done a triathlon.
"No, but it's been on my bucket list forever," I said. "Why?"
"I think I'm going to do one this summer," she said. "I'm taking lessons now so I can swim with my face in the water. I need to find a bike though. Or do you think I can do it with my mountain bike?"
"Wait, you can't swim, you can't run (she has bursitis in her hip), and you don't have a road bike, but you're going to do a triathlon?" I ask incredulously.
"Well, um ... yeah," she said with a laugh. "I've been on a tri team four times before as the runner, and I was always impressed with the people who did the whole thing on their own."
"Well, if you can do it, then I can do it," I said. "I'll do it with you."
That night, I searched the Internet for triathlons in the area that would fit our schedule. We settled on the Dam Tri at Colonel Crawford Park in Crawford County on June 29. The sprint distance race included a .25-mile open water swim in Woodcock Creek Lake, an 11.3-mile bike ride, and a 5K (3.1-mile) run.
Here are 10 things I learned during my first triathlon:
1. It's better with friends, especially experienced friends. After Karen and I decided to do the tri, three other friends joined us. Training with a team makes you accountable, and friends make early morning or late evening workouts bearable.
2. "Brick" workouts make you stronger. Separate swim, bike and run workouts aren't enough. You must occasionally do all three (or at least two of the three) consecutively to get a real feel for the effort it will require. Brick workouts are so named because they train your body to run and/or bike on fatigued legs that feel like bricks. Our team often trained in Findley Lake, N.Y. We swam in the lake, then biked around the lake twice (10 miles), then ran around the lake (5 miles). I did a handful of bike-run workouts on my own.
3. Practice swimming safely in open water. It takes some time to become accustomed to swimming in an deep, murky lake water with waves and current. We asked a trained lifeguard to swim with us and tow a rescue tube. We also recruited friends to kayak or canoe alongside us to protect us from motor boats and to allow us to hang on and rest, if needed. Even strong swimmers have to quell the urge to panic in open water the first few times.
4. You don't have to follow a plan. None of the people I trained with used a formal training plan because we were all pretty active anyway. We simply added some brick workouts to our regular fitness routine starting in early May. If you need a plan to follow, they are available online at www.beginnertriathlete.com.
5. Always test-drive your race-day outfit. Nearly every time we practiced, I tweaked my outfit choice, trying different shoes, shorts, shirts and swimsuit combinations until I found an outfit I was comfortable with. A couple friends offered to lend me their wet suits, which offer bouyancy. I tried them, but the tight neck made me feel constricted and panicked. I wore a lap swimsuit with a sports bra (added support for the run) with Under Armour compression shorts. I had a lightweight tank top that I put on over my suit after the swim.
6. Triathloning is a love-hate thing. Your emotions and confidence range wildly throughout the three events. I went from nervous fear before the swim to relief it was over, and from happy confidence to angry fatigue (why didn't anyone tell me it was this hilly?) on the bike. My emotional roller coaster ended with sheer, unabashed joy during the run because I was happy to get to the part I was good at.
7. There are five legs to the race. Transitions count, and the faster you can get to, into and out of the transition area before and after the bike race, the better your finish time. Organize your gear -- bike shoes, running shoes, socks, tank top (with race number already pinned on), bike helmet (chin strap up), sunglasses, energy gel, etc. -- in a logical manner next to your bike on a folded bath towel.
8. You can use your mountain or hybrid bike, but I wouldn't. Road bikes are faster and easier. If you don't have one and don't want to make that investment (at least $500), borrow one from a friend and practice riding it. You must wear a helmet. They will not allow you to ride without one (and you shouldn't anyway).
9. Don't write off any part as "easy." I was so focused on the swim that I didn't prepare for the bike route, which turned out to be hardest for me because it was hilly. My flat training rides around Findley Lake and Presque Isle didn't prepare me for it.
10. Consider the race date carefully. Early summer triathlons are harder to train for in Erie where the weather is unpredictable. Also, the water will be colder early in the season.

Watch: Jason Segel and Emily Blunt flirt in 'The Five Year Engagement' clips
Jason Segel re-teams with his "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" director Nicholas Stoller and producer Judd Apatow ("Freaks and Geeks," "The 40-Year-Old Virgin") for the irreverent romantic comedy "The Five Year Engagement," co-starring Emily Blunt.
These new clips give you an idea of the film's goofy laughs and sentimental romance, in which engaged couple Tom (Segel) and Violet (Blunt) discover that setting a date -- and sticking to it -- is harder than it seems once Violet is offered an out-of-state job.
In the first clip (above), Tom and Violet frolic in Michigan snowbanks until nature (of the human-made variety) puts an end to their wintery bliss.
Nothing's funnier than clashing religious wedding traditions, as seen in the below clip, where the great David Paymer plays Tom's dad and Oscar nominee Jacki Weaver ("Animal Kingdom") Violet's mom.
Before you see him as The Lizard in "The Amazing Spider-Man," you can catch Rhys Ifans as the owner of an adorable pooch with an impossible-to-pronounce Welsh name (mockingly referred to as "Gwyneth"). You can spot Mindy Kaling ("The Office") in this scene as well:
Tom and his wedding-planning buddies (comics Brian Posehn and Chris Parnell) taste some cakes and shop for some dirty-sounding flowers. Oh, you boys!
Alex ("Parks and Recreation" star Chris Pratt) awkwardly hits on a girl ("Community's" Alison Brie) at a swank outdoor party. Looks like wedding bells aren't in their future, but there's a chance Pratt could steal this whole movie.
The film opens nationwide May 27.

Selene from Underworld. I did this last year for Halloween. I'll probably wear this again but maybe drop the money for the contact lenses this year, buy a wig ( black hair spray paint doesn't work well on blonde hair) and will need to replace my toy gun.
Skintight black bodysuit w zipper closure from the neck to lower torso. Also black leather zip-up arm gauntlets. Black leather corset has lace-up back and double zipper. 8 leather straps extend around the side and clip to corset front. 2 black gun holsters attach to the outside of the upper thighs using small, high powered magnets. The calf-high black leather platform boots have laces and zipper all the way up and 5 buckles.

They should call them Golden Duds.
105 105 105 105 105
I'm an excellent driver...
Fess up! Yer one of them thar CIA spooks, ain't ya!
(Gittin' harder and harder to multitask here. Freeping, cleaning my gun shelf mess, just changed from Tom's show to the Walking Dead, and now the wife just announced that pizza is ready.)
Spooks never fess up!
Now the dog wants in.
I response the current guest.
I saw a 11/12 year old girl shoot a full auto Uzi for the first time, yesterday.
She was really full of trepidation but handled it beautifully.
It kinda made me laugh.
I guess I've been lucky in buying good lots because I've never really had much of a problem with them.
I've heard others say that they sometimes aren't too great.
The Dawg wants pizza!
One of my favs. Glad you got the reference.
The reference was lost on me but now I get it.
I looked into getting a NRA Instructor certification to be able to take Clint Jr's
Boy Scout troop shooting and the first class was $500, I think you needed
three classes to complete it.
Holy crap!
That's ridiculous.
It's the death of 1000 cuts with this stuff.
I am a woodcarver and had considered doing gun engraving.
The tools are expensive and there is no fudge factor when you lay an engraved line.
I admire this art.
Let me know what you think about the NRA insurance. I don't have the expensive Class 3's you have but I have a Parker, 67 Belgium, and a couple Model 12's plus a couple EBR's + more. Not enough to put on a rider but if the NRA is legit maybe I'll give it a look.
I used to do a lot of pen and ink.
You cant erase that, but holy moly! a fine gun?
You can throw paper away and start again, but a fine gun?
This Gal is confident.
Must be activated - whatever that means.
Ridiculous how expensive.
Seems like the NRA is trying to make money instead of trying to promote gun safety.
I think my homeowners is cheaper. The jewelry is about the same and only $500+ a year.
Sounds like a private insurance rider is the way to go.
Good night, dear. Five a.m. comes early. Great thread!
And that's why I don't insure the guns because they are in a safe bolted to the ground.
Check these guys too.
I know a guy that had one with the warbird "carved in relief" on it.
He sold it for $125.
Idiot, indeed.
That's a *start*, but won't even cover one of my Class III AR-10s. I priced my FFL appraisals out 3yrs ago w/ NRA, and it was almost same as my ho's ins policy estimate of $1400/mo.
I get so many fund-raising calls from them, from Sept 1 - Nov 7, it drives me nuts. I didn't renew my membership last year because of all the evening calls. I have them on *ignore* on cell and landline units. There's an "activation box" on the membership app, which must be checked, for each benefit, IIRC.
Was at a class 3 FAL shoot yesterday.
She does beautiful work.
It was very well carved.
I told him he has an excellent example of war art.
He didn't get it.
She really does.
Woodcarving and engraving is a whole 'nother world of art. If you sneeze and slip, that's going to leave a noticeable mark.
I'm going back for another appraisal at NRA.
I talked to the folks at Cole Custom about using CNC machining to do this work in wood.
They said they tried it but they went back to doing all work by hand.
Wood is pretty forgiving.
Laser engraver. We have one at the shop, it can engrave all kinds of stuff.
Sure, but it just is not the same.
I looked at purchasing a duplicarver for the wood.
It does the rough work and you do the detail.
Cole said they tried it all and went back to doing it by hand.
Obama can fix what ails ya!
Sorry to hear you're feeling poorly.
I wish I had all those tools.
Yeah, me too, and the skills to use them.

Hearing aid tech firm Lantos wins FDA approval

Initially developed in Massachusetts Institute of Technology labs, the system "streamlines the process of obtaining ear topology measurements for custom-fit in ear devices," the company said, adding Lantos' technology replaces the process of taking a silicone impression for the production of custom-fit ear devices.

OREGON HOOPS HERITAGE - (An occasional series)
Oregon coach Howard Hobson, who was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1965, was an innovator decades ahead of his time.
Hobson was born on the Fourth of July in 1903 in Portland. He prepped at Franklin High School and captained the basketball and baseball teams at Oregon.
Hobson took a cool, cerebral approach to basketball. He demanded a lot but was not a screamer.
"'Hobby' was soft-spoken, he never tried to give you a big pep talk," John Dick, a member of "The Tall Firs," said. "He was not Knute Rockne trying to bring back the Gipper. He just laid out everything. He had a game plan for every game."
Hobson kept voluminous statistics in an era when most teams didn't track assists. He had student managers chart every shot, rebound, assist and turnover. Baseball was Hobson's first love; he also coached the sport at Oregon, including the Yankees' great Joe Gordon. But during his years at Oregon (1935-47), Hobson became famous for "The Tall Firs" and for his innovations.
He was the first coach to advocate a three-point line and widening the foul lane. In February 1945, Hobson, an active member of the NCAA rules committee, staged a game between Columbia and Fordham in Manhattan where the three-point line and the expanded lane were used. The foul lane was widened from 6 to 12 feet and baskets beyond 21 feet counted for three points. A foul shooter also could choose a two-point try from 21 feet. Columbia won 73-58 as the teams combined for 20 three-pointers. Hobson also advocated a 30-second clock.
David Hobson, a retired lawyer in Portland, played for his father after Howard Hobson took the job at Yale in 1947. David was a starting guard and captain of the 1955 Yale team .
Asked what it was like to play for his father, David chuckled and said: "It was not terribly pleasant. He was a tough taskmaster."
But David always remembered his father's unflappable demeanor during a game.
"He was the coolest guy on the bench," David Hobson said. "It was unbelievable. After I graduated, I sat on the bench sometimes with him and all the players would be jumping up and down. They would all be so excited and he would just sit there. He was absolute icewater, telling them what to do."
Howard Hobson's innovations were not limited to the fast break. He baffled opponents with a defense that former Temple coach John Chaney popularized before his retirement in 2006. In 1939, John Chaney was 7 years old when Hobson taught his team what would later be called a "matchup zone."
At first glance, the defense looked like a simple 2-3 zone with Dick, Slim Wintermute and Laddie Gale in the back and Bobby Anet and Wally Johansen pressing the ball out front. But the zone employed man-to-man principles and took many teams out of their offense. Opponents didn't know whether to run a zone or man-to-man offense against Oregon's singular defense.
"He liked it because it set up players in a position he wanted for his break," David Hobson said.
Howard Hobson was totally committed to fast-break basketball. A rule change before the championship season helped fuel his team's attack. Before the 1938-39 season, a center jump was held after each basket. This slowed the game and irritated Hobson. It was no coincidence that his team won the national championship the very year the center jump rule was junked.

Beautifully restored hotel, with comfortable rooms and a lovely sense of history. The bar and pool area is gorgeous, but they don't sell alcohol. We really loved it there

expencive, but nice hotel next to the beach in stown town. nice rooms with big beds with mosquitonets. Service is good, except the people who work here try to fix u up with boattrips with there friends during breakfast-time :(
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
We had a tag-along traveller, so we had to ask for a room with enough room to put an extra bed in. Instead, they upgraded our room and we ended up with one of the most luxurious rooms in the hotel: third floor, facing street (can't remember which side). Two or three four-poster beds in a room about 400-500 sq. ft.
Breakfast room is on the roof, so the view is incredible with breakfast. The pool is small but quaint and much appreciated given the oppressive muggy heat of Zanzibar in November. Staff are a bit lackadaisical, but I fear this is more the norm than the exception in Zanzibar. It's an island and island time rules here!

We tried out taking photos with an underwater camera bag for the first time, which was a bit tricky, but we've included a sample. Probably the dolphins we saw on the way were a greater highlight, since we'd never seen any in the wild before. That and the amazing amazing ...
