G;;Erica Wheeler;;8.0;;2.7;;1.9
F;;April Sykes;;14.5;;4.4;;1.7
F;;Chelsey Lee;;8.1;;8.1;;0.9

F;;Da'Shena Stevens;;12.2;;6.9;;1.4
F;;Centhya Hart;;9.5;;3.0;;1.5
Rutgers has the advantage if ... April Sykes isn't carrying the load.
The junior has averaged 20 points in the past two games but isn't getting much help. Opponents have shut down C Monique Oliver and F Chelsey Lee. Oliver, who was averaging 18 ppg during a five-game stretch, is averaging just 10 points in the past two games. Lee, who had three straight double-doubles, has scored just nine points in the past two games.
St. John's has the advantage if ... PG Nadirah McKenith is running the show.
The sophomore from Newark's University High has 12 assists in the past two games. The Johnnies, who use the 3-pointer sparingly, are shooting 42.2 percent from the field, including a blistering 50 percent in a 69-53 victory over Providence on Saturday. Once ranked in the top 25, St. John's is 0-4 vs. ranked teams this season.
The savvy fan will notice ... If Rutgers coach C. Vivian Stringer makes adjustments.
Opponents are packing in their zones to stop Oliver and Lee in their high-low post and the Knights haven't been able to hit their outside shots, save for Sykes, to loosen the defense. Plus, the Knights have been hit with 17-2 and 17-0 runs early in the second half in their past two games, both losses.
Historical: Rutgers leads series, 31-4
Last game: St. John's, 60-52, Feb. 24, 2010

Optical Scanners Are Troublesome
November 22, 2013
To The Reader's Forum: I went to vote on the new machines that are mandated because the citizens, and some not citizens, of Florida were incapable of using paper ballots....
Also, isn't it amusing that the "privacy booths" are narrower than the ballot? Guess that is what happens when you have a government committee work on something!

Our govt. people are basically those who can't get a real job. We spend million$ on a ballpoint pen that will write in space (govt.) and the Russians give their fliers a $.05 pencil. Here in the voting situation a black ball point pen rather than a brand new wet magic marker would do the trick. go fig.

duckster, I hope you're not sincere in your remark for if you are, then you would most probably volunteer to participate in a circular firing squad. There is something even more troubling and that is the problem with electronic voting machines. I watched on C-Span to a software expert testify that these voting machines an be programmed to have the machines produce any desired result. Not only that but one would not even have to do this with each machine. It can be done with the tabulating devices. The ONLY way to detect this is for experts to go into each device and examine the source codes. The ONLY way to guarantee honest elections is to establish "chains of custody" much like what is used in drug testing. Until this is done, other forms of voting should be used. Makes one long for the old AVM machines.

The ONLY way to guarantee honest elections is to get the election process OUT of the hands of the political parties. who do you think picked the optical scanners. There was nothing wrong with the AVM machines except they didn't generate large campaign contributions. Check the money trail from the scanner hardware and software companies. You can follow it to the top party officials that pushed thru the new nation wide scanner policies. And why is it that when they open absentee ballots both parties spend more time trying to throw out the votes for the other side than they do just counting them as a honest vote from an American citizen.

Donkeyboy- do you ever research before mouthing MSNBC talking points. There have been voter fraud convictions in 46 states in just the last two years. Voter fraud isn't confined to just one Party or even necessarily a Party at all. However, you are about as clueless as Howard if you aren't aware the main culprit, by far, is the Democratic Party. Just an iota of common sense will tell you that all of the efforts by Holder/Obama to obstruct voter ID laws is to make it easier to perpetrate vote fraud. The argument that it discriminates against poor minorities is asinine. Take the NAACP lawsuit against Georgia's voter ID law. It got thrown out of court because the NAACP couldn't provide ONE SINGLE member who didn't have valid ID. Fools that keep bringing up the Koch Bros. are the ones who've munched on the propaganda too long.

Donkeyboy- I agreed with you about the AVM machines being outdated but my point was it makes one long for the time when endemic election fraud was confined to Chicago and a very few other places.

Donkeyboy- what government info sources are you quoting that deny election fraud? Are you saying there has never been any references to Chicago election fraud? Chicago is historically famous for its election fraud. Why do you think Al Gore went to a Daley from Chicago to show him how to steal an election in 2000 Florida. And don't even try to tell me about Florida because I was there for the entire month and closely followed what was going on. I watched locally televised hearings in three different cities, researched the Florida Supreme Court and both of their decisions, watched how Gore tried to cherry-pick certain precincts in certain counties and filed lawsuits in every county to suppress military absentee ballots. Where were you and what sources did you have?

Why does the author of this letter blame the voting machine for the poor quality of the paper on which the ballot was printed? It makes no sense!
Of course, with the constant refrain of austerity for every single government function coming from the Tea party and the like, I'm not surprised they went to a ballot printed by the lowest bidder and that the paper quality was compromised to save on cost.

donkey, donkey, donkey- every time you you come up against a situation that only requires connecting two dots, you claim it's a conspiracy theory. I'm sure somewhere on the internet there resides a factual record of the two Florida State Supreme Court rulings regarding Gore's 2000 rulings. It might do a partisan like you a lot of good to look up the bios of the Florida State Supreme Court justices at that time. As for Emelye, I'm sure it won't be too much longer before she'll be blaming the TEA Party for the Obamacare roll-out. I'm sure their fiscal responsibility platform influenced the Obama administration to accept CGI's low bid for building Healthcare.gov despite their horrendous record of failure and cost overruns.

Donkeyboy-I don't subscribe to newsletters. I watched hearings on local TV stations over a span of three weeks. Democrats complained long and loudly about voter suppression but not ONE instance was ever shown to be true. You've never seen such a brain-dead bunch of witnesses as the Dems who testified at those hearings. The mainstream media did a good job of not ever mentioning those hearings. I never realized how much CBS, NBC, CNN, CNBC and NPR were in "the bag" for Democrats until I saw how what went on in Florida was reported across the country. I had never voted for a Republican for President before 2000 and I've never voted for a Democratic candidate since. Considering the present state of the Democratic Party, I will probably never vote for a Democratic nominee the rest of my life. The bench is full of Progressives and Socialists. The JFK Democrat is all but extinct.

Pittsburgh Mayor's Race: Black Voters
Rep. Wheatley gets nod from Pittsburgh blacks
State Rep. Jake Wheatley has received the endorsement for Pittsburgh mayor from the first-ever convention of black Pittsburgh voters.
Former City Councilman Sala Udin helped organized Saturday's Pittsburgh Black Political Convention, in part, because Mayor Luke Ravenstahl's decision not to run again has made this year's mayoral race more wide open than others.
Wheatley is one of two black Democrats running for mayor. The other, Abdula Jamal Richardson - a self-described community activist considered a long-shot in next month's primary - didn't get any votes at the convention. Wheatley got 52 percent.
Councilman Bill Peduto got 33 percent while former city council president and state auditor general Jack Wagner got 13 percent. Wagner and Peduto are considered the front-runners.
Josh Wander, the only Republican running, got the remaining votes.

For a fan base that hasn't seen its school play in a BCS bowl in this century -- well, barely in this century (in the first few hours of the century in 2000) -- discussion of the good and bad of the BCS may be a bit silly.
After all, after two straight trips to the Independence Bowl, just getting the chance to sniff at the BCS would be wonderful.
But without further delay, I'm going to point you in the direction of Tony Barnhart's blog today in the AJC.
Apparently Congress is "investigating" the BCS to see if it's illegal.
And as Tony points out (and I'll agree), doesn't Congress have anything else better to do these days?

Quote:And I agree it doesn't work with the Visual C++ Express 2008 application. I did some research on the forum and it seems there is a method for it with xnView. Problem is xnView will create a binary file. And checking the resource files from the tutorial there are no binary file here... But anyway I try to import it in VCE 2008 but really I do not understand how to make it work. I tried several way, but always something wrong happened when compiling and it simply say it do not understand symthax with 27 error in the *.res binary file made with xnView T_T... Does someone have a right workflow replacing the first part of lesson 38 with Visual C++ but with VCE 2008? Really thank you by advance, sama.van
Remember, this tutorial was written in Visual C++ 6.0. If you're using anything other than Visual C++, the resource portion of this tutorial won't make sense (especially the screenshots).

LOWELL -- Randy Hogan will play in memory of his mother, Sandy Hogan, who died of colon cancer four years ago. Cole Wade will do the same for his grandmother, Carol Reagan, who died from cancer last fall.
On Sept. 12, the Lowell High School football team will suit up in pink jerseys and compete for -- and against -- breast cancer in the Lowell Pink Arrow Project.
The Lowell Red Arrows will become the Pink Arrows during Week No. 3 of the high school football season to honor breast cancer survivors and victims and their families in their season home opener. All proceeds for the game against Holland High will benefit three community efforts in the fight against cancer.
WHAT: The Lowell Red Arrows football team takes on breast cancer -- and Holland High -- in a football game to honor cancer victims and survivors and their families.
WHEN/WHERE: Friday, Sept. 12. Parade begins at 6 p.m., followed by kickoff at 7 p.m. at Lowell High School.
PINK MOMENTS: Players will wear pink jerseys with the names of cancer survivors or those who died of the disease on the back. Pink thunder sticks, pink popcorn and pink cotton candy will be available at the game and commemorative programs will be distributed. The goalpost pads also will be pink.
T-SHIRTS: Pink Arrow Pride T-shirts, good for game admission, cost $20 for adults, $15 for students and $10 for children and are available at Pep Talk in downtown Lowell.
GOAL: To raise more than $50,000 for scholarships and for cancer awareness in Lowell.
"I feel a lot of pride in this, that the team is doing this," said Hogan, a three-year starting linebacker, who will have his mother's name emblazoned on the back of his special pink jersey. "The whole community is involved, and it means so much to me."
More than 10,000 are expected at the game, which could raise more than $50,000 for breast cancer awareness. All proceeds will be split between, two scholarship funds and Lowell Community Wellness, a nonprofit that will help support breast cancer victims and families in town.
"I have never been involved with anything of this kind before," said Lowell coach Noel Dean, who came up with the idea while watching quarterback Brett Favre's wife, Deanna, sport a pink jersey at an NFL game. "It is an exciting event. It shows that there is more to high school football than football.
"I thought this would be a unique way to get us back to our roots, to what really matters. This whole project has been amazing. There is a sense that there is a greater good, and I like that."
The 2008 season kicked off Monday for area teams, including Lowell, with three days of conditioning practice. And while the Red Arrows are focusing on playing at Davison for the Aug. 28 season opener, there is more to this season than football.
"It is a different atmosphere for a game, and there will be more pressure to play well," said Wade, a senior tight end.
Added his mother, Patty Wade, whose mother, Carol Reagan, died from lymphoma and will be honored on the back of her son's jersey: "This is just huge. It is really neat that the team and Coach Dean are doing this. Having lost someone to cancer, it is just so touching that everyone is coming together to fight this."
Community residents -- such as Amy Hayes, whose downtown retail store Pep Talk is selling the special pink Arrow Force Pride T-shirts -- are an important part of the night. The T-shirts will allow anyone into the game, and names of cancer victims or survivors can be stenciled on the back.
"It is going to be a mad house," Hayes said. "This whole thing has been so amazing so far."
Many players' families are planning to buy their commemorative game jerseys for $200 each. However, 10 players have donated their jerseys to a special silent auction, which concludes the night before the season opener, Aug. 27. Those jerseys already have fetched $7,000, but the bidding is expected to escalate.
"This is bringing the community and the team together," said Kyle Nichol, the team's senior quarterback. "While we are really focusing on playing Davison right now, supporting this cause in our community is really important to us. We are excited to be part of it."
Lacks Cancer Center at Saint Mary's Health Care has pledged $6,000 to the project and plans to renew the pledge for two more years. One-third of the game's proceeds will go to the Kathy Talus Memorial Scholarship, named in honor of a former Lowell teacher and coach who lost her battle with breast cancer four years ago. Another one-third will be awarded as a scholarship to a local medical student in honor of longtime team physician, Dr. Donald Gerard.
The Lowell Wellness Center, directed by trainer Patty Sellner, will receive the other one-third.
"Lacks is in partnership with Lowell on this project, and they are committed to helping us educate the community on breast cancer," Sellner said. "They will work with us on things like prevention, nutrition and exercise. We will have the opportunity to do so much."
Former Lowell football player Ken Palcowski also has involved his employer, Arbor Mortgage, which will provide monetary support. A number of other businesses are calling daily to inquire how to help, Sellner said.
"I think this is a great project," said Palcowski, a 2001 graduate. "This is a great way for all of us to give back."

Further Details
|The early 20th century has witnessed major transformations in both scientific and musical domains. In particular, relativity has shown space and time to have physical reality (in contrast to a priori conditions of objects), and the hierarchical structure of tonality was abandoned in favor of progressively more systematic methods of composition evolving from twelve-tone music. By singling out the migration of the scientific understanding of space and time to musical terrain, as legitimization and metaphor for some theoretical proposals of integral serialism, a parallel is drawn between the two fields which shows the entwinement of scientific output and artistic theory and practice in post-war avant-garde.

Hoboken mayoral candidate Tim Occhipinti's "One Hoboken" slate has surged ahead of its opponents in the amount of money raised for the Nov. 5 elections.
The influx of cash is thanks in large part to his team having self-financing loans from City Council at-large candidate Frank "Pupie" Raia and donations from the family of Councilwoman Beth Mason, according to the latest campaign finance reports filed with the state.
Occhipinti's "One Hoboken" slate has raised $154,024 according to the latest figures filed with the state Election Law Enforcement Commission on Oct. 25. His team has spent $98,180.
Of the total campaign revenue, $125,426 was raised since the last report on Oct. 7, when the Fourth Ward councilman was a distant third in terms of money raised. He only announced his intention to run in the beginning of September.
The Zimmer team, headed by Mayor Dawn Zimmer, has raised a campaign total of $129,462, including $16,205 over the 18 days since the last report, and spent $105,125 over the course of the campaign, according to the ELEC reports.
Vision for Hoboken, headed by Assemblyman Ruben Ramos, has raised $120,265, including $9,990 collected since the last report was filed, and spent $115,156 over the course of the campaign.Of the money raised, teammate City Council at large Frank "Pupie" Raia loaned the campaign $107,400. Councilwoman Beth Mason and her husband, Richard, donated $10,000 each to the campaign, according to the filings.
Mason said she is supporting Occhipinti because his team has extensive experience of getting things done, rather than getting "a lot of headlines and a lot of talk."
"He loves Hoboken," said Mason. "As a councilman he has been out there. He is young and energetic and not only has a vision for Hoboken, but also knows how he can do it. "
Under state law, the maximum contribution for an individual to a candidate committee is $2,600 per candidate per year, so she could have donated more, she said.
"Since 2007, Mayor Zimmer's campaigns have primarily been funded by Hoboken residents," Zimmer's campaign spokeswoman Mollie Binotto said in a statement. "We are extremely proud to have such broad base support from the community.
"The only interesting thing about
Mr. Occhipinti's ELEC (report) is that his campaign appears to be largely funded
by Councilwoman Mason and Mr. Raia. We think that says a lot about their
campaign and how the city feels about their message."
The Ramos campaign declined to comment.
Occhipinti's at-large council slate is Raia, Peter Biancamano and Britney Montgomery-Cook. Zimmer's council slate is incumbent Councilmen Ravi Bhalla and David Mello, and parks advocate Jim Doyle. Ramos' slate consists of at-large candidates Laura Miani, Eduardo Gonzalez and Joe Mindak.

BEREA -- Berea police will conduct a specialized OVI enforcement during the weeks around Christmas and New Year's Day.
Extra officers will be on patrol to apprehend impaired drivers and keep the roadways safe for motorists this holiday season.
The department also supports the Safe Rides Program, which involves its distribution of discount taxi vouchers to area bars and restaurants to encourage the use of alternate transportation for patrons who may have too much to drink to drive safely.
In Ohio last December, there were 82 traffic fatalities, 17 of which were alcohol-related.
"Our message is simple: Drinking alcohol and driving do not mix. If you plan on consuming alcohol, you should plan not to get behind the wheel of a vehicle," said Berea Sgt. Patrick Greenhill.
The Berea police recommend planning a safe way home before festivities begin and designate a sober driver or carpool. They also recommend that if a person is impaired, call a taxi, a sober friend, family members or use public transportation, all of which are much cheaper than a drunk-driving citation.
Anyone who sees an impaired driver on the road should call 800-Grab-DUI. It also is recommended to take the driver's keys away if the person is impaired and help them make other arrangements to arrive home safely.
Safe Rides is a partnership between Ace Taxi, Budweiser, the Ohio Department of Public Safety and the Cuyahoga County Safe Kids/Safe Communities Coalition.

Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez refused a request for financial assistance from Anthony Bosch shortly before the founder of the clinic at the center of the latest drug scandal in baseball reached an agreement to cooperate with Major League Baseball's investigation into performance-enhancing drugs, the New York Daily News reported Wednesday night.
The report cited an unidentified source as saying that once Rodriguez rebuffed Bosch's request for an amount believed to be in the hundreds of thousands, the Biogenesis of America owner turned to Major League Baseball and reached a deal to cooperate in what is shaping up to be one of the biggest scandals in baseball and perhaps pro sports history.
"A-Rod refused to pay him what he wanted," the report quoted a unidentified source. "Baseball was worried about that."
On Tuesday, a report from ESPN's "Outside the Lines" stated that Major League Baseball is preparing to suspend as many as 20 players for violating baseball's performance-enhancing drug policy, among them Rodriguez, whose punishment could ban him from play for 100 games. Among other players named in the report included Milwaukee Brewers slugger Ryan Braun, Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli, and former Yankees Melky Cabrera and Bartolo Colon.
The Daily News reported Wednesday that Major League Baseball expressed concern that Bosch might turn to players for financial help if the organization didn't lock him into an agreement to testify.
The report quoted a source familiar with the investigation as saying Bosch and his lawyer Susy Ribero-Ayala told MLB that Bosch will provide them with damaging information about his past dealings with A-Rod and Braun.

Prince sounds like a go for Home Run Derby
Prince Fielder and Miguel Cabrera have a home-run derby opposite each other every day in batting practice. They hit in the same group, and they tend to put on a show for a round or two when they're on the road.
"We don't count," Cabrera said. "I think he wins every time."
Fielder wasn't taking that compliment easily.
"It's a tie," he said.
Could they match up a week from Monday in the State Farm Home Run Derby? That sounds iffy.
Fielder was playing coy, but it sounds like he's in.
"I don't know," he said when asked. "I think so."
Fielder said earlier in the week that he would be interested.
Cabrera said he has not been asked, and he sounded noncommittal about it. The strong commitment he sounded was that he expects Fielder will do it.
"If they ask me, I'm going to think about it," he said. "I don't know if I'll do it or not. They don't ask me yet."
If they don't, or if they do and he says no, then he says he'll watch Fielder. But a lot of fans, no doubt, would like to see him do it.
Fielder won the Home Run Derby in 2009 when the All-Star festivities were held in St. Louis.
Verlander slotted to face Sox, Indians later this month
Is it too early for the Tigers to plan out their pitching rotation for division matchups? In this situation, with a gap to make up against both the Indians and White Sox, it is not, and the result will have Justin Verlander pitching the third game out of the All-Star break.
Doug Fister and Max Scherzer are slated to pitch the first two games in Baltimore, with Verlander pitching Sunday. By doing that, Verlander falls in line to pitch the series opener against the White Sox at home on July 20, then pitch in Cleveland July 25 or 26. It'll also put him in line to pitch in Boston at the end of the month.
Could it cost him an extra start at the end of the season? Perhaps, though they can tweak that by how they use their off-days. But at this point, you can argue it's more important who he starts against than how many starts he gets.
Sunday's lineup: Tigers at Rays
A little bit of a Sunday lineup against Alex Cobb. Brennan Boesch, 1-for-3 with a double off Cobb from last year, sits in favor of Don Kelly. Ryan Raburn starts at second base, while Ramon Santiago gives Jhonny Peralta a day off at shortstop. Still no start for Danny Worth, who hasn't had a plate appearance since June 15.

The National Hurricane Center's 10 p.m. forecast for Tropical Storm Isaac predicts a Tuesday night landfall near Mobile, Ala., as a strong Category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 90 mph. But forecasters warned it's still too early to be sure of the storm's location for the period of Sunday through Tuesday.
The center's Thursday night forecast was the latest of several shifts of Isaac's predicted path to the west, and towards Louisiana. This latest shift places the southeastern half of the state within the bubble defining the forecast's margin of error for days 4 and 5.
If the storm remains on this path, Tampa, Fla., the site of of the Republican National Convention next week, would receive only a glancing blow from the hurricane's outer bands sometime between Sunday night and Tuesday morning.
In a discussion message accompanying the forecast, Senior Hurricane Specialist Richard Pasch said observations from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft found that Isaac had srengthened only slightly Thursday evening, with peak winds only near 45 mph.
But the flow of air out of the top of the hurricane, an indicator that its cyclone structure was coming together, continued to be strong. If the storm stays over water, further intensification was likely.
Still, Isaac is forecast to move over the southwestern portion of Hispanola, the mountainous island that is home to the Dominican Republic and Haiti, during the next 12 hours, which will halt intensification, Pasch said. Then the storm will cut across the eastern half of Cuba, again limiting intensification or even causing some weakening, he said.
Once the storm moves over the warm Straits of Florida and enters the Gulf of Mexico, it's expected to restrengthen, however. Surface water temperatures of 86 degrees Fahrenheit stretch all the way from Cuba to just off the coast of Louisiana.
A NOAA research jet aircraft has been flying through and around the storm to collect detailed data that will be fed to the computer models used by forecasters, which should improve their accuracy for the next advisory cycle at 4 a.m.
The forecast paths produced by the more than 30 computer models used by meteorologists to predict the path and intensity of Isaac also have been moving steadily west, with a half-dozen tracking the storm into southeastern Louisiana during their last six-hour predictive runs.

About 2 a.m. on Jan. 5, the 38-year-old suspect, Kristopher Casey Basta, of Tualatin, entered the residence in the 7800 block of Southwest Sagert Street, said Jennifer Massey, Tualatin police spokeswoman. Inside, Basta assaulted a man sleeping at the residence, Massey said.
The victim, who has not been identified, reportedly is known to Basta and recognized him.
Massey said that Basta has offered to turn himself in to authorities but has not. On Thursday, Basta reportedly was indicted on accusations of first-degree burglary and fourth-degree assault. A warrant has been issued for his arrest.
He is described as 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing about 210 pounds. He frequents the Tualatin and Lake Oswego areas.
Anyone with more information about Basta's whereabouts is asked to call Tualatin police at 503-629-0111. People can also leave anonymous tips at 503-691-0285.
Massey advised that people should not approach Basta.

VINELAND — On display in the mayor's office is a Sabater Elementary School student's detailed model of Vineland — albeit smaller, able to fit on a table top and with matchbox cars instead of automobiles.
It's the work of 8-year-old Yasmine Navarrete for her social study class' urban suburban project.
She could have chosen any city or town for the project but instead she chose her hometown.
"We know the streets and we knew the buildings that were around here," Yasmine said.
Each building is made out of paper with an eye for detail, stretching from Vineland City Hall to the Vineland Municipal Electric Utility.
Her family helped out with the city's construction and made room on their dinner table for the project, which quickly grew in size.
The original plan was just to make a shoebox diorama but Yasmine and her family's vision quickly outgrew the box's cardboard confines.
"When we first started, it was just her and my sister but when she saw everything and when she really got the idea, she asked for my mom to help and all of us to help," said Yadira Navarrete, Yasmine's older sister. "It ended up as a family project."
Vineland City Hall was the first building put down in the little city and from there the model expanded.
It expanded so much that Yasmine's father had to cut the model in half so it could fit through the home's doorway.
In seven days, Yasmine created Vineland. Included in her vision is her little yellow house on Elmer Street, the El Mercadito grocery store her dad works at and even Sabater Elementary School.
Sitting in the school is Yasmine with her two social studies teachers — Kelly Fisher and Joan Wilson.
"She was proud and she liked it," Yasmine said about her teacher's reaction.
"We wanted to keep it in the class but we couldn't because there wasn't enough space,"
said Jennifer Navarrete, another of Yasmine's older sisters.
The family decided to take it to Mayor Ruben Bermudez's office.
"So he could be proud," Yasmine said.
"I am proud, definitely," Bermudez said.
For the past week, the mayor has kept the model in his office and showed it to everybody who has passed through.
As a show for appreciation for her work, Bermudez presented Yasmine a certificate from the city.
Yasmine was shy when talking to the mayor but, before she left, she went around the room hugging everybody that came to see her model.
"I thought it was something to be proud of — someone in our city so young, in second grade, come and put this project together," Bermudez said. "She put her heart and soul into this and I'm very impressed with what she did."

FSA threatens to treble fines
Daily news headlines
LONDON - The UK Financial Services Authority (FSA) has proposed multiplying the amounts firms and individuals are fined, as part of plans to rethink its financial penalties framework.
The regulator says some fines could treble in size as a result of the proposals, which aim to create a consistent and more transparent fining framework to punish and change behaviour at firms the FSA accuses of repeatedly failing to heed warnings for market abuse or consumer mis-selling.
The plans specify that fines should total up to 20% of an offending company's income from the business line linked to the breach over the relevant period or up to 40% of an individual's salary, including bonuses. They set a £100,000 base rate for market abuse fines against individuals.
The focus on market abuse reflects the volume of penalties issued by the financial watchdog over the past 18 months for insider trading, while the hike in penalties forms part of the regulator's "credible deterrence strategy".
In response to criticism that previous fines have failed to represent an effective deterrent against abusive behaviour, it is telling that "the desired deterrent effect" will be one of the major variables behind future penalty calculations.
The consumer focus also marks a reaffirmation of the regulator's principles-based Treating Customers Fairly strategy, which has already led to major fines for mis-selling payment protection insurance and mortgage mis-selling.
The new penalties system follows on from last week's announcement by the regulator that, as part of an internal restructuring programme, it is merging its financial crime and enforcement divisions, under its enforcement director Margaret Cole.
"These proposals are an important step in pushing forward our ethos of credible deterrence," said Cole. "By hitting companies and individuals in the pocket where it hurts, the fines will be a stark warning to others on what they can expect to pay for flouting our rules. Moving to this new framework will enable our enforcement policy to continue making a real difference to consumers and to changing behaviour in the financial services sector."
The full framework will consist of five steps: removing profits; setting a figure to reflect the nature, impact and seriousness of the breach; considering aggravating and mitigating factors; achieving the appropriate deterrent effect; and deducting any settlement discount.
Consultation on the plans closes on October 21, and the FSA says the policy is likely to apply to fines from March 2010.

The Atlantic Coast Championships saw Youngsville High School make marked improvement.
At the band competition over the weekend in Hershey, the Eagles took second place. Cindy Scheid, band director, said the performance put the band in gold medal place.
In previous years, Scheid's group took 17th for bronze, fifth for silver and last year they placed 13th for another bronze. Katie Ward, band member, said it felt amazing to make so much improvement this year.

Quite a haul
Field Captain Angela Renninger, left, and Drum Major Nicholas Coan hold up the trophies earned by Youngsville High School at the Atlantic Coast Championships.
To make it to ACCs, bands can qualify on points or by winning their chapters. As Chapter 8 champions, Scheid said the band was able to make the Hershey trip.
"We were excited but ready," Paige Reilly, band member, said. "We had practiced for so long."
Anthony Schipani, another band member, said the whole weekend felt like a dream. In addition to the band's overall performance, they also had the best brass group.
With that award, any brass member can take part in the Jersey Surf Drum and Bugle Corps. As of Tuesday afternoon, Scheid said they hadn't had a chance to talk about their participation.
"We got back at 4:40 a.m. Monday," Scheid said.
At home now, the band will perform at their own school gymnasium at 7 p.m. on Wednesday. They will have a halftime review, Scheid said, in addition to awards.
Going in to ACCs, the Eagles were seeded third out of 31 bands across nine states. During their competitive season, they went undefeated with five first- place finishes.
"It is an amazing feat for a small-town band," Scheid said. "We are so proud of everything they have accomplished! Hard work truly does pay off."
For Youngsville, that work started even before classes did. According to Scheid, summer practices and two weeks of band camp prepared the band.
From 3:15 p.m. to 6 p.m. four days each week after school, Scheid said her group has perfected music and marching. She credited instructors Don Hulihan on percussion, Ashley McKuhn for front ensemble, Nathan Trimpey on woodwind and guard instructor Sandee Hulihan.

Put another notch on the Blogging's-Better-Than-Being-A-Newspaper-Columnist ladder today as a pair of 'Rival' Celtics blogs do their best to team up for the greater good.
Let me explain.
As you've likely heard by now, Atlanta Hawks guard ran his mouth a bit about Celtics fans, calling them "fair weather fans." Now, you, me and everyone else knows that the only thing this did was, well, get us all fired up for what will ultimately be a boring, first-round sweep.
To prove that point --- and help C's fans get fired up --- Red's Army and BostonSportz have teamed up to verbally and visually assault Bibby.
See, the dudes over at Red's Army have come up with one heckuva chant, urging fans attending tonight's Game 2 to scream, "RONDO'S BETTER...CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP."
It gets even better.
While chanting that, they're urging folks to wave this awesome Bibby sign that's available for download at BostonSportz.
So, there you go Celtics fans. Do your part. I know I'll be live in Springfield, known as the weird guy that is holding a Mike Bibby sign, chanting something about Rondo. So, please, do your part!

And in that aspect Alex consistently misses. I don't think it's unfair at all to call him pathetic in that regard.
What physically is Alex better at than Kaepernick? Nothing really. Once Kaepernick's mind catches up to that he will be our starter.
While agreeing with Homer hurts a little, he is correct. Alex's problem on the deep ball is he doesn't trust any other than Vernon and tends to over throw it so no one else can possibly catch it (except maybe a guy on the bench). This year I see that is changing, however... the west coast offense is not built on high risk long throws. It's built on low risk, short passes that the receiver is expected to get yards after the catch. So yes, expect who ever is in at QB to throw the vast majority of his passes under 15 yards - be it Alex, Kap, or who ever else it might be.
"All we care about are wins, stats are for losers" - Justin Smith
" I dont know how to say it I dont have the words for it. Let me say it this way, as Ive said all along, you work at the pleasure of the organization." - Jim Harbaugh

I don't see anything outlandish in praising Kaepernick for having an arm.

He's had this issue his whole career. If you want to call it mental that is something that will never change. His mentality is always going to be super cautious and conservative which is why he takes unnecessary sacks and will always check down at the first sign of things not going 100% according to plan.
That isn't a bad thing necessarily, but if we had a QB who could take advantage down the field when the chance is there on a routine basis we'd be a much better football team.
How the team is built is irrelevant to this issue. It's not about throwing the ball downfield MORE, it's about converting the opportunities you get.
With these coaches though, I do not worry about our QBs not having that after 2 or 3 years in the system being taught by Harbaugh. I expect all our QBs to be ready mentally to play, and to make good choices. It's too early to say whether Kaepernick will have that ability to do everything he needs to pre-snap, but I see no reason why he won't be able too soon.
And with that being said I like the more talented guy in that type of situation long term. And Kaep is more talented. I think he'll eventually give us a lot more at the position than Alex does.

Anything about Kap having more talent and being better than Smith is pure speculation. Lets see what Kap does during a full game. Not 1 trick play here and there.

FULTONDALE, Alabama - Fultondale Public Library staff and city officials toured the site of the city's new library Monday and discussed the progress of construction, which is expected to be completed in March.
Jessica Allen, assistant director at the library, said the building is framed and the exterior walls are up.
Councilman Darrell Hubbert said he noticed two important things during the walk-through. "What stood out to me were the big windows and the view," he said. "The windows will allow a lot of light to come through, and there's a great view on the backside of building."
The library will be around 8,000 square feet. Allen said the new library sits on a four-acre piece of property next to Winn-Dixie off of U.S. 31, and planners left enough room to expand the building by 2,000 square feet in the future.
Allen said the new library is necessary for the community. "We've outgrown ourselves," she said. "We have no more shelving, we need to expand the children's section, we need more seating and places to study and we need more computers."
In addition to more space, Allen said the new building will have a conference room available for the public to rent, a coffee station and an outdoor reading space. She also said they are looking into applying for grants for other upgrades.

The Brooklyn Nets took round one of the battle of the boroughs in the only manner this matchup was deemed fit to end, with a 96-89 overtime win over the Knicks.
But amongst all the stars in that game, perhaps the most important player was a relative unknown to the casual fan, but also someone who's work ethic has long earned rave reviews from those in the know, power forward Reggie Evans.
Deron Williams may have dazzled more with 16 points and 14 assists, and center Brook Lopez might've dominated more with a 22-point, 11-rebound performance, but it was the 6-foot-8, 250-pound Evans who arguably had the biggest impact on the outcome. Evans recorded a game-high 14 rebounds in just 17 minutes of action, and his energy gave the Knicks fits all night. Evans, who leads the league with the most rebounds off the bench with 8.5 per, made the difference, as the Nets (9-4) moved into a first-place tie with the Knicks (9-4) in the Atlantic Division.
New York has had trouble crashing the boards all season, as they're ranked 28th in total rebounds. And although they actually stayed in-step with the Nets in that category, 50-50, it was when the Nets made their stops and grabbed the caroms that had a true affect on the outcome.
Carmelo Anthony technically didn't start at power forward, 40-year old Kurt Thomas did, but the 6-foot-7 Anthony still ripped down a team-high 13 rebounds. Anthony also registered a game-high 35 points on 11-of-25 shooting, including 3-of-5 from behind the arc in a game-high 50 minutes.
Tyson Chandler was the only other Knicks' player to record double-digits in rebounding, as he grabbed 10. But it was the rebound that Chandler couldn't get in the Knicks' final possession of regulation that tipped the momentum in the Nets' favor. As they were allowed new life, Brooklyn took full advantage in the extra frame as they outscored the Knicks, 12-5.
The Nets were crashing the boards so well that even Lopez showed up on the glass, as seven of his caroms came on offensive rebounds. The 7-foot Lopez, who's averaged 7.4 rebounds per game in his career, has never been known to be a terror on the box, but he really imposed his will against a Knicks' interior that's suddenly been slipping in recent games.
As the Knicks begin to come back down to earth a bit, and teams are starting to figure out their weaknesses -- as they've now lost three of their last four -- it's up to head coach Mike Woodson to make the necessary adjustments.
Or else the "Brooook-lynnnn" chants may soon start to spread over the East River and into Manhattan.

SOMERVILLE -- Borough Council could decide to amend the Eastern Central Business District Redevelopment Plan tonight to accommodate an applicant for a project at 19 Meadow St.
Council will consider the request when the meeting opens to the public at 8 p.m. in Council Chambers at police headquarters at 24 S. Bridge St. The public meeting follows a behind-closed-doors Executive Session at 7 p.m. to discuss redevelopment, the donation of property to the borough, litigation over the Somerville Library and negotiations with the PBA.
There will likely be a discussion about the results of the recent audit of the borough's 2010 budget after a review of the general comments and recommendations of the auditor.
Council intends to introduce an ordinance for first reading that would add a mid-block crosswalk on East High Street to the borough's bus stop and crosswalk plan. It will also act, after a public hearing on the topic, to change the age of at which residents can apply to become a member of the fire department. The change needs to be made to conform with the New Jersey Firemen's Association.

For all of the angst and hand-wringing brought about by the loss to Alabama (and the ones to Georgia and Ole Miss, as well), the Tigers still have a chance to make school history. LSU has never enjoyed four straight double-digit-win seasons.
The Tigers went 11-2 in 2010, 13-1 in 2011 and 10-3 in 2012. If LSU can win out in home games against Texas A&M and Arkansas, and also win its bowl game, the Tigers will finish the season 10-3.
Coach Les Miles also led LSU to its only other streak of three straight double-digit-win seasons (2005, '06, and '07).

WASHINGTON -- Shunning the turmoil of recent budget clashes, Congress is ready to approve a massive $1.1 trillion spending bill for this year, a compromise financing everything from airports to war costs and brimming with victories and setbacks for both parties.
The huge bill furnishes the fine print -- 1,582 pages of it -- for the bipartisan pact approved in December that set overall federal spending levels for the next couple of years. With that decision behind them and lawmakers eager to use the election year to show they can run a government, there was little suspense about the spending bill's fate.
Reinforcing that was their desire to avoid the potential alternative -- a replay of last fall's 16-day federal shutdown, which disgusted voters.
"There's a desire to show people we can do our job," said Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho).
The Republican-led House was expected to approve the sweeping measure Wednesday, with the Democratic-run Senate following suit by the end of the week.
The bill heads off an additional $20 billion in automatic cuts to the Pentagon's budget -- on top of $34 billion imposed last year -- and cuts to many domestic programs as well. The reductions were being triggered by a 2011 law that forced the cuts after President Barack Obama and Congress failed to negotiate budget savings.
The measure provided money for Obama's 2010 health care overhaul and his revamping of federal oversight of the nation's financial markets -- though not as much as he requested. It continued age-old restrictions on federal financing of most abortions, but lacked new ones. Democrats also blocked GOP-sought curbs on the Environmental Protection Agency's power to regulate utilities' greenhouse gas emissions.
"It's funding Obamacare, and I pledged a long time ago I absolutely wouldn't vote for anything that has financing for Obamacare," said Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-Ga.), who said he'd vote "no."
Overall, the measure provides about $20 billion more for defense and domestic programs this year than was spent in 2013, excluding the costs of war and natural disasters. Even so, it still leaves defense and domestic spending on a downward trend since 2010, a number that troubles many Democrats.
The bill would provide nearly $92 billion for U.S. military operations abroad, mostly in Afghanistan, plus about $7 billion for disasters and other emergencies. That was just slightly less than last year's war spending but about $44 billion less than was provided in 2013 for disasters, after Hurricane Sandy ravaged the Northeast in October 2012.
One widely supported provision would roll back a reduction in annual cost-of-living increases for wounded military personnel who retire early or for their surviving spouses.
That language was part of the savings included in the budget compromise by Ryan and Murray enacted last month, money that was used to help soften cuts in other programs.The IRS after revelations that it targeted tea party groups for tough examinations, would get $500 million less than last year. It also was receiving none of the $440 million extra Obama wanted so the agency could help enforce Obama's health care law, another favorite GOP target.
Democrats won extra money for Head Start's preschool programs, enough to serve another 90,000 young children. The Federal Aviation Administration would get less than Congress enacted last year, but enough money was included to avoid 2013's furloughs and hiring freezes for air traffic controllers.
The FBI won extra money, including almost twice as much to help it conduct background checks on firearms purchasers. The National Institutes of Health would get $29.9 billion, about $1 billion above last year's budget.

The Harkness Classroom
In courses of study for older and younger students, classes at Exeter are small - no more than 12 or 13 students in a section - with students engaging in seminar-style discussion. The Harkness plan, which originated at Exeter in 1930, calls for an oval table in each classroom and places students at the center of the learning process. One student described classes at Exeter by saying: "I love the Harkness table and the way in which teaching here respects the student. Students teach other students." Under the guidance of an expert teacher, you will have the opportunity to learn in classes where instruction focuses on ideas brought to the table by the students themselves. There are no lecture classes at Exeter.
For many Exeter Summer students, the small size of classes and level of participation expected contributes to an exciting new experience. The dialogue around the Harkness table will help you develop skills in expressing your opinions and considering those of others. You will discover what it means to explore materials on your own and to share the process with your teacher and classmates. Because Harkness classes are uniquely suited to encouraging interdisciplinary work, a number of courses take advantage of this approach, allowing you to make connections among several areas of study. As another student said of the experience: "In Germany, where I am from, we sit at single desks in rows. It's much nicer to sit together around one table because it is more personal. I like having all of us learn together, instead of just learning from the teacher."

I saw your e-mail address on Tower Talk. I was wondering if I could pick your brain a little bit, and if you can head me in the right direction at least. Here it is: A telecom company bought a pre-fabricated tower from Central Towers (??). Central provided all the parts and even delivered the kit to the site. Labor was not provided. While assembling/erecting the tower, a guy wire (??) came loose from its 5/16 plate clamp, collapsing the tower and killing the person on the tower. Come to find out that the required clamp should have been 4/16 instead of 5/16 and that the 5/16 clamp was designed for telephone poles and the like so that when a car hit the clamp would give way and release the cable. One engineer has tested the 5/16 clamp in question and that result showed that the 5/16 held better than the 4/16. Is this misleading in some way? Additionally, the plate clamp required 100 ft./lbs. of torque. A crobsy clip requires only 15 ft./lbs. of torque. No instructions, tools, or warnings were given advising of the 100 ft./lbs. requirement. Additionally a crescent wrench is the only tool used in the field, and it cannot put 100 ft./lbs. or torque on the plate clamp. Is everything i'm saying correct? what are other liability areas, if any of Central, in this fact pattern? Further suggestions?

I scored an older Sesame Street Doctor Set the other day at a thrift store, and my munchkin has been taking everyone's temperature and blood pressure since. I decided it was time for a little addition to the dress-up collection we have going on at our place. And I thought I'd share, although the instructions are… pretty pathetic.
Pieces to cut:
Neck strap
I started with a scrap piece of blue cotton fabric. Nothing exciting. I wanted to add some white somewhere so I used a piece of my muslin.

Thomas, who averaged 7.50 digs per set for the week, also reset the single season digs record in program history. The Bob Jones graduate surpassed her own record set in 2010 when she tallied 607 digs. She concluded the 2011 campaign with 631 digs and a school record 2,131 for her career, fourth-most in C-USA history.
The 30-dig outing by Thomas against Memphis last Wednesday, bested her previous season-high of 28, which she did on four occasions. She collected 20-or-more digs on 16 times on the season and reached double digits in all 32 matches for the year.
The libero has earned the weekly defensive honor on three occasions during her career in Green and Gold, all in 2011.

Ex-officer charged in 2014 assault found dead
Updated 11:27 am, Wednesday, October 19, 2016
KAILUA-KONA, Hawaii (AP) — A former Big Island police officer has died two days before he was scheduled to change his plea in an assault case.
John Smith Jr., of Ocean View, was found dead Sunday. Police say they have called for a coroner's investigation into his death, although there is no indication of foul play, West Hawaii Today reported (http://bit.ly/2dNsFEj).
Smith was charged with second-degree assault for an alleged January 2014 attack on a man in police custody. He was accused of dragging the suspected squatter by his hair, slamming him against a police vehicle and assaulting him inside the car.
Smith had been off duty at the time.
It is unclear if Smith's proposed plea change, scheduled for Tuesday, would be to guilty or no contest.
Deputy Prosecutor Kauanoe Jackson, who was in charge of the case, said she could not comment on the substance of the plea agreement.
Smith was an officer from June 1999 to March 2014.
Hawaii Police Department Maj. Samuel Thomas said he couldn't comment on the reason for Smith's departure, citing department policy. But Smith's attorney, Robert Kim, said his client had been "under so much pressure" as a result of the cases.
In 2010, Smith was commended by police Chief Harry Kubojiri for "his thorough investigative skills that led to the identity of a burglary suspect" and received six letters of appreciation from the public.

Only eight seats left, unless you don't mind standing up.
The Bridgeton Code Blue Program, started by Bridgeton Mayor Albert Kelly, Dr. Rob Weinstein, Rev. Ellen Rutherford, and Captains James and Maria Stephenson was created to provide "Warming Centers" as a way for homeless persons in the community to find shelter from frigid overnight temperatures during the cold winter months.
It's time to plan for 2014-15.
Dear Church and Community Partner:
As the unofficial end of summer has drawn to a close, we are preparing for the upcoming Code Blue activities for the winter months (November-March).
Last year, we saw an amazing response from the community as we came together to provide emergency shelter and food for our homeless population.
On behalf of the Code Blue Coalition, I would like to thank you for your support of Code Blue!
Thanks to the efforts of countless individuals, the City of Bridgeton Code Blue program has been replicated in Vineland and plans are in the works to replicate it in Millville.
The purpose of this letter is to request your assistance for this upcoming year.
Last year's winter took it's toll on many of our volunteers.
This year, we are looking to add more structure to this year's program with the goal of minimizing burn-out and providing opportunities for community engagement at various levels of support.
We are requesting that your church, religious organization or organization consider participating in one of two ways:
1. Host Congregation: Volunteers from host congregations provide hospitality to Code Blue guests through their facilities.
These volunteers provide meals (dinner and breakfast), overnight hospitality, and friendly support to our guests.
Expectations for host churches include:
• Building requirements: a large community room that can accommodate up to 30 people.
If you do not have a room that can accommodate the
requirements, you may utilize the fellowship hall at Bethany Grace Community Church.
• Location requirements: downtown Bridgeton.
• Churches should be available to host up to 30 guests for a week (Sunday to Saturday) at a time.
• A Code Blue Coordinator who will be responsible for the week and work with Support Coordinator
• Ideally, each Host Congregation would only need to house the Warming Center one week during the winter season.
2. Support Congregations and Organizations.
Volunteers assist Host Congregations in preparing meals (dinner and breakfast), overnight hospitality, and set-up and clean-up.
Expectations for Supporting Organizations include:
• A Support Coordinator who will work with the Host Code Blue Coordinator to ensure meals and staffing are covered.
• Code Blue Support Team. Volunteers who can assist in covering overnight shifts.
2014-2015 Bridgeton Code Blue
• Support Congregations/Organization will only be responsible for one week during the winter season, but may elect to do more.
If your organization is unable to make a commitment to be a host or a supporting organization, you may elect to provide and serve a meal from 6-8 p.m. for up to 60 participants.
Due to the unpredictable nature of the winter season, we ask that Meal Sponsors sponsor a regularly occurring day (for example, every Wednesday, or the third Saturday of the month).
Participating sites and volunteers agree to follow a set of guidelines that allows for the safety and well-being of guests and volunteers alike, including no drugs, alcohol or weapons on the premise.
All volunteers (except for meal staff, set-up & clean-up) must sign a waiver of liability/background check form, as well as attend a volunteer orientation.
Applicants with the following backgrounds are unable to participate as volunteers: Sex offenders; anyone with an outstanding warrant; anyone who has a drug conviction within the last 18 months; anyone with a domestic or assault-related conviction within the last 18 months; anyone with a robbery-burglary conviction within the last 7 years.
This year, we will also be utilizing an online volunteer management tool, VolunteerSpot, to coordinate the scheduling of volunteers, sites, and meals.
This will allow organizations and individuals to sign up easily online and make changes if needed.
The volunteer shifts for this year will be: 5:30-8:00 p.m.; 8 p.m. to midnight; midnight to 3 a.m.; and 3 a.m to 6 a.m.
Host Churches may elect to remain open longer.
We will be holding several one-hour volunteer orientations during the month of October.
Please encourage the members of your organization to participate in the orientations.
Additionally, we are beginning to take donations for the Code Blue Coalition.
Funds are received and distributed by Bethany Grace Community Church to purchase the necessary materials, as well as the help offset costs to the Host Churches.
Donations can be sent to the church office or made online.
On behalf of the Code Blue Coalition, I would like to thank you for your consideration of this request for helping out.
For more information and/or to sign up your organization, visit: www.bridgetoncodeblue.com.
KIndly reply using the website by Sept. 30.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns at 1-855-818-3810.
In service.

291 - Resto Druid Numbers way off
What is your Race, Class and Level?
Taurren, Druid, 90
What action bar mod do you use, if any?
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Nourish and Regrowth are way off. The DrD tooltip is showing avg heal numbers that are an order of magnitude too low.
Rejuvination is being reported by DrD as only have 4 ticks when it has 5 ticks for me.
If this is an accuracy issue, what is your exact spec and your damage attributes? (For spells SP, for melee abilities AP/RAP, weapon etc.). Armory links are helpful.
What version of DrDamage are you using?
Do you have an error log of what happened?
Please provide any additional information below.

Swiftmend - Tooltip says 3589 avg. Hits for ~78517
Healing Touch - Tooltip says 5838. Hits for ~95084
Regrowth (+Glyph of Regrowth :: no HOT) - Tooltip says 2666 avg, 5332 avg crit (regrowth has 100% chance to crit w/ the glyph). Crits for ~96326
Rejuve (NO HARMONY BUFF) - Tooltip says avg 4 hits x 16547.5 + 1 crit x 33095. Values are correct, but I get 6 ticks with no buffs.

Note: As you can see, the numbers are pretty far off... damage seems fine, but healing numbers are WAY low.

I suspect this may be due to how Swiftmend works. With the correct addons, you can essentially cast Swiftmend on one target while targeting another (healbot, clique, etc). As a result, the values may definitely be off. The only thing of concern to me would be the haste values affecting the ticks. This is possibly affected by auras (like spell haste), but I'd like more detail.
As in the case of the FAQ, please provide all details indicated if you want the issue looked into. I can't guess what the issue is without the necessary information.
I'm going to mark this as waiting.

I second this. Swiftmend is reporting 4k when it hits for > 70k. Healing Touch is reporting 6.3k when it hits for > 100k. Regrowth doesn't support the Glyph of Regrowth. I also have the Rejuvenation problem with 1 too few ticks (I get 6, and DrDamage reports 4 normal, and 1 crit). However, the tick amounts appear to be correct. Wild Growth is correct. Right # of ticks, very close values.
