Keeping a quality car on the road for a long time is no great secret but rather an "attitude" and a conscious effort to continue to do so once the "new car" appeal is over. My philosophy is to buy the best quality car one can afford and one that is infinitely comfortable, as the driver can expect to spend a great deal of time in that car, especially with a million or more miles in mind.
I spent three hours road testing a 1966 Volvo 1800 before I decided to buy it. I bought it because I could find nothing I didn't like about it. Most people buy cars as an expedience, to keep up with the folks next door or just figuring one feature, such as fuel economy. They wind up with a car they grow to hate or disrespect.
I try to understand the mechanisms within the car as the designers meant them to be used. I treat the car with respect not only when I am driving, but when it has taken me where I want to go. I don't eat or smoke in the car. I keep it clean under, inside and out. I service it as the owner's manual calls for. Figuring the manual was written by the engineers who built the car, who knows better than they do?
In addition to the P1800, I also own a 2002 C70 Volvo, a 1987 740 Turbo Volvo, 1929 Packard 7 passenger touring car, 1923 Model T Ford Fordor Sedan and an 1949 Crosley Hot Shot the first American sports car.
Unfortunately, I do not have a garage for any of the Volvos, never did. The P1800 has been outside for 41 years and continues to live in the elements, just a block or two from the ocean and its salty winds. The car is driven daily. It has never failed to take me where I wanted to go.
The engine gets regular oil changes and a new Volvo oil filter every 3,0003,500 miles. I have made it a point to be meticulous about such things since the car was new. The points get replaced every 2025,000 miles along with the spark plugs. Fuel filters and air filters are replaced as necessary as are belts and hoses. The engine was only apart once for a complete rebuild at my insistence when it had 680,000 miles, as I had never heard of an engine capable of such mileage while continuing to run trouble free.
So far, even after all 2.5 million miles, the transmission is trouble free and the steering box is untouched. It sure would be nice if Volvo would help in keeping the car on the road. Even a box of oil filters or air filters from time to time would be appreciated. After several discussions regarding such sponsorship, I found their philosophy is, "If we support the car, then people would think that with such resources, anyone could keep their car going for millions and millions of miles," and, "however, what you (me) have done and keep on doing is to show everyone that anyone can keep a Volvo going for millions and millions of miles by just following simple service schedules and purchasing replacement parts from over the counter at their local Volvo dealer." I still think it would be nice to get a Christmas or birthday present of some filters or an occasional case of motor oil.
Volvo has only used my car twice in a magazine ad. The Parts Department has used it in some magazines and some of their shows/conventions for mechanics and body shop owners.
When I passed the first million miles in 1987, Volvo held a party and press conference in NYC where they gave me the keys to a new 780 Bertone Coupe. When I passed the 2 million mile mark, Volvo held a party in conjunction with its 75th anniversary at the WABC Studios in Times Square, where they presented me with the keys to a new C70 coupe.
Since the car has passed so many milestones, the car has provided Volvo with much free advertising as my accomplishment is really just a human interest story.

Harrisburg's Millennium Music Conference is in its 15th year, and will bring more than 300 musical acts to the area. While the event provides musicians with information and networking opportunities, the rest of us can enjoy lots of live music in more than 30 venues. A complete schedule and more information about MMC is available at musicconference.net.
Philly-based rock trio Phantasm will play tonight at Gullifty's as part of a night of music sponsored by H.A.R.M. (Harrisburg Area Rogue Music).
Frontman Steven Ross' vocals and guitar work are beyond impressive, and the tight musicianship of bassist Aaron White and drummer Jay Yachetta creates this swirling, intricate, kinda-poppy, kinda-glam rock. Check out enterthephantasm.com for samples.
Justin Levinson — 7 p.m. Friday at Midtown Scholar, 1302 N. Third St., Harrisburg
A graduate of Berklee College of Music in Boston, folkster Justin Levinson has shared the stage with Band of Horses and Anais Mitchell, and makes music in Burlington, Vt.
His finely crafted songs range from poppy piano ("City With 2 Streetlights") to countrified folk, ("Bury Your Love,") and each style is undeniably catchy. His range as a musician is impressive — you can hear more examples at justinlevinson.com.
Psychedelphia — 9 p.m. Friday at Radisson Hotel Harrisburg Hershey, 150 Camp Hill Bypass, East Pennsboro Twp.
Pottstown's Psychedelphia will bring trippiness to the "Winter Jibberjam" at the Radisson in East Pennsboro Twp. Friday night.
These guys have been on the festival and jam band scene since 2008, and they're showing no sign of slowing down. Their audible chemistry makes for lively, funky, jazzy jams. I'm partial to "The Call," which you can hear on psychedelphia.com.
Vinegar Creek Constituency — 10 p.m. Friday at Carnahans Tavern, 209 3rd St., New Cumberland
For a dose of rootsy Americana, head to Carnahans for Vinegar Creek Constituency. Based out of Marietta, this fivesome won the band competition at DelFest, a festival in honor of Americana legend Del McCoury.
Vinegar Creek Constituency creates tunes that sound like old bluegrass or Americana standards (I'm thinking about "Growing Boy's Blues" and "North American Rag"), but still sound fresh and alive. Hear more at vinegarcreek.com.
Kelly and the Ruths — 11 p.m. Friday at Suba at Mangia Qui, 272 North St., Harrisburg
Kelly and the Ruths have a sweet, vintage quality to their songs, but there's nothing saccharine here. Frontwoman Kelly Musser, a Palmyra native now living in Philadelphia, and her "Ruths" (the band's name was inspired by the Hebrew word for "friend") create delicate, melodic folk that I'd love to have in the car for a lazy summer drive.
The band is considered one of the most promising coming out of Philly — it won the Philadelphia Songwriters Competition in 2009, and have been featured on the Folk Show on WXPN. Listen to samples on its Myspace (myspace.com/kellyruthmusic) — "Blue-Eyed Lover" is fantastic.
Meagan Farrell — 8:15 p.m. Saturday at Cornerstone Coffeehouse, 2133 Market St., Camp Hill
A Harrisburg native (Central Dauphin East grad) turned New Yorker, Meagan Farrell just released her debut album, "Waitress."
Her vocals are genuine and rich, and you just have to watch the videos on her website (meaganfarrell.com) to see her energy as a performer. I love the video for "Lost in My Life."
Atomic Solace — 10 p.m. Saturday at Ye Olde Ale House, 5002 Carlisle Pike, Hampden Twp.
This rock foursome hails from Richmond, Ky., and after releasing their debut album in 2007 (they were just "Solace" then — not yet Atomic), the band was invited to perform at SXSW 2009 in Austin.
Under its improved name, Atomic Solace released a self-titled EP in 2010 and has been touring throughout the East Coast. Check it out on ReverbNation (reverbnation/atomicsolace) — I really like "Heartache" and "Standing On the Edge," these guys know how to craft a hook, but I like that they don't deny their Southern roots either. Even in their more "rock-and-roll" moments, there's a tinge of Kentucky in there.
1undread — Midnight Saturday at The Quarter, 321 N. Second St., Harrisburg
1undread's thick, bassy dubstep is truly captivating. This husband-and-wife-duo of Nic and Brian Swan hail from the U.K. and Bermuda, respectively, so if you're into dubstep, try to head to The Quarter because they probably won't be back in the U.S. for a while.
I'm really into "Only Love" and "Illumination," both of which you can hear at soundcloud.com/spacemonkey-1.

By 10 a.m. today, 5 inches of snow had fallen at Syracuse's Hancock Airport, according to the National Weather Service.
By about 11:30 a.m., Camillus had received about 7 1/2 inches. The city of Syracuse got about 7 inches, and Tully got dumped with about 10 inches of the white stuff.
And the snow is still falling. The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm warning through 8 p.m.
"It's somewhat unusual to have a storm like this, but it's not unheard of," said Ray Brady, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Binghamton. "We've had other big storms in April, and we've had several Mother's Days where it snowed."
The storm will likely stick around most of the day, Brady said, although the snow could turn into rain in parts of Onondaga County.

Computational Interface Dynamics (Selected Topics in Numerical Analysis) G63.2011.001/G22.2945.001
Fall 2005
First Day of Class:
Monday September 12, 2005.
Monday 1.25-3.15 p.m.
WWH Room 1013
Anna-Karin Tornberg
Office: WWH 1119
Phone: 212 998 3299
email: tornberg (in the domain) cims.nyu.edu
Office hours:
For shorter questions, drop by at any time. For longer consultations, please make an appointment.
The class meets regularly on Mondays from September 12 to December 12. Exceptions: No class Monday Oct 10 (Columbus day). Instead: Class on Wed Nov 23, same time and location. (All of NYU is running on a Monday schedule that week). Class on Mon Nov 21 is cancelled.
This course will be graded as a seminar course requiring a presentation.
There will be two relatively small computer assignments, implementing and testing a simple version of a front-tracking and a level-set method, respectively. Then, each student is to select his or her own subject for a course project, which is to be presented in class towards the end of the semester. Suggestions on project topics are available, but other topics are welcome (and encouraged). Oral presentations will be held in class on Dec 5th and Dec 12th. A written report describing the work is due Monday Dec 19th.
Moving internal boundaries or interfaces separating different regions are present in many problems in nature. Two examples are interfaces separating two different fluids in a multiphase flow, and between solid and liquid regions in a solidification process. Such interfaces are in general dynamic, i.e. they evolve in time. Frequently, singular forces are supported on these interfaces (e.g. surface tension forces) and material parameters might be discontinuous across the interface (e.g. density and viscosity). Considering these features, the numerical approximation and simulation of such problems is a challenging task and a field of extensive ongoing research.
In this course, we will focus our attention on so called interface tracking/capturing methods. Two important groups of numerical methods that will be discussed are the front-tracking methods and the level-set methods. First, we will discuss the formulations and implementations for problems where the interface velocity either is assumed to be given or where it depends solely on local properties of the front. Then we will study applications where the intefaces describes an material interface, and the dynamics are coupled to variables in the bulk. In interface tracking methods, the governing equations are solved on an underlying grid, which is kept fixed. Hence, this grid does not in general match the interfaces, which are separately represented. The coupling of the interface tracking method to the solution on the underlying grid will be discussed for several different applications, including details of how to deal with singular forces and discontinuous material coefficients.
In addition to the interface tracking methods, we will also discuss some methods designed with a special application in mind, such as boundary integral methods for fluid-structure interactions in low Reynolds number flows.

Mexican Cops under probe for U.S. detainee death
El Universal |
August 30, 2005
Several police officers are being investigated in connection with the death of a U.S. citizen earlier this month at a jail in Ensenada, on the Pacific coast about 60 miles (95 kilometers) south of San Diego, a U.S. consular official said Monday.
Pauline Baeza, 20, originally of Orange County, California, was arrested Aug. 9 after Ensenada police received two reports that she had been behaving in an aggressive, disoriented manner in public, said Liza Davis, a representative of the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana.
An autopsy by Mexican authorities showed that Baeza later died of blunt force trauma that caused a brain hemorrhage while in jail, Davis said.
Authorities have obtained a security videotape showing that Baeza was held in the air as authorities tried to subdue her. She was dropped and hit her head.
Officials at the public prosecutor's office in Ensenada could not be reached for comment on Monday.
"They do believe that there was some police contribution to (Baeza's) death," Davis said.
Baeza's remains have been repatriated to family members in California.

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama — Suddenly, the calendar is clear.
Alabama's loss in Saturday's Iron Bowl means the focus shifts from the SEC Championship Game to recruiting. In a week, the awards circuit will mean a heavy travel schedule for at least on Crimson Tide star.
For Monday, the recruiting trail was hot. As Alabama got a huge commitment from 4-star safety Laurence "Hootie" Jones, coaches were working on other prospects. Nick Saban and defensive coordinator Kirby Smart were at Hoover High School, home to top cornerback target Marlon Humphrey.
You know just Nick Saban in our weightlifting class, no biggie.. pic.twitter.com/of8hM9BGgF— ✈✈David B ✊ (@David_B2015) December 2, 2013
(The picture above was taken just outside the football coaches' offices at Hoover)
Saban will be back in Tuscaloosa by Wednesday to speak at a dinner before the Super 6 high school state finals played in Bryant-Denny Stadium. The six games will be played Thursday and Friday.
On Sunday, Alabama will hold its annual team banquet on Sunday evening when it will learn its postseason destination.
By Monday, Tide linebacker C.J. Mosley will hit the road for several days of award-related travel. He'll be in Charlotte on Monday for the Bronko Nagurski Award ceremony. Then on Wednesday, Mosley will be in Houston for the Lombardi Award. And the next day he'll join AJ McCarron in Orlando for the Home Depot College Football Awards Show.
What comes next for McCarron is still up in the air. Should he win the Unitas Golden Arm Award, he'd be in Baltimore next Friday.
And if he's a finalist for the Heisman Trophy, that ceremony is the next day in New York. That won't be determined until next Monday evening.
The postseason practice schedule will be determined once the bowl destination and game date is known. The Tide typically starts practice in mid-December for an early-January game.

School briefs | NYHS students place at state science fair
NYHS students place at state science and engineering fair
Local Northwest Yeshiva High School juniors, Albert Hanan and Aryel Tucker, were among the more than 500 presenters at the 56th Washington State Science and Engineering Fair held in Bremerton, Wash., earlier this month. Students from all grades converged on Bremerton High School with their project boards and demonstration materials.
Classmates Albert Hanan and Aryel Tucker from Northwest Yeshiva High School presented their project "Superconductivity" to judges who volunteer their time to listen, critique and praise the students. WSSEF awards more than $1.8 million in scholarships as well as special awards meeting specific criteria set by a sponsor.
The students created a superconductor which is a material that conducts electricity with zero resistance. Aryel and Albert used yttrium oxide, barium carbonate, and cupric oxide. They mixed the chemicals and heated them in a kiln at 1,725 degrees Fahrenheit. They used liquid nitrogen to cool the superconductor down to its critical temperature thus allowing it to conduct electricity with no resistance.
Hanan and Tucker earned a 3rd place ribbon. This is their first year of participation.
WSSEF is an all-volunteer non-profit organization dedicated to promoting science, technology, engineering and math across the state. This year's major sponsors include: The Boeing Company, Olympic College, Washington NASA Space Grant Consortium, Ohio Wesleyan University, City of Bremerton, Bonneville Power Administration, Whitman College, The Evergreen State College, Washington State University, Kitsap County, Helix Creative, Seattle Pacific University, Bremerton School District and Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth.
MI jazz musicians to perform with trombone legend
Bill Watrous will perform in concert with Bothell High School and Mercer Island High School Jazz ensembles in an evening of musical entertainment. All proceeds will benefit the jazz band programs.
Watrous has played and recorded with many jazz luminaries, including Maynard Ferguson, Woody, Herman, Quincy Jones, Johnny Richards, and fellow trombonist Kai Winding. He is on the music faculty at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music.
He will be performing with both the Bothell High School and Mercer Island Jazz Ensembles on April 30 at the Eastside Foursquare Church Bothell. Mr. Watrous will perform separately with both bands - a unique opportunity to hear two generations of performers on the same stage. All proceeds from this event benefit the two school jazz programs.
This performance will be preceded by a visit by Mr. Watrous to Mercer Island High School on April 29, where he will rehearse and work with the Jazz Ensemble in their class. The instruction will continue into the evening where all jazz students from Islander Middle School and the Morning Jazz program at the high school are welcome to join in.
Tickets for the April 30 event in Bothell are $10 purchased at misbb.org, or $15 at the door.
Culminating project presentations to begin
Each Mercer Island High School senior must prepare and presenting a "Culminating Project" as part of their graduation requirements. Presentations are scheduled during BRIDGES groups on April 30, and May 7.
The school will have a catalogue of all senior Culminating Project presentations available in the next several days.

More commonly known as Royal Deeside, the land stretching west from Aberdeen along the River Dee revels in its connections with the Royal Family, who have regularly holidayed here, at Balmoral, since Queen Victoria bought the estate. Eighty thousand Scots turned out to welcome her on her first visit in 1848, but some weren't so charmed: one local journalist remarked that the area was about to be "desolated by cockneys and other horrible reptiles". Today, most locals are fiercely protective of the royal connection.
Deeside is undoubtedly handsome in a fierce, craggy way, and the royal presence has helped keep a lid on unattractive mass development. The villages strung along the A93, the main route through the area, are well-heeled, with an old-fashioned air, and visitor facilities are first-class. It's an excellent area for outdoor activities, too, with hiking routes into the Grampian and Cairngorm mountains, good mountain biking, horseriding and skiing.
Balmoral Estate
Originally a sixteenth-century tower house built for the powerful Gordon family, Balmoral Castle has been a royal residence since 1852. The Royal Family traditionally spend their summer holidays here each August, but despite its fame it can be something of a disappointment even for a dedicated royalist – only the ballroom, an exhibition room and the grounds are open to the public.

TAMPA, Fla. -- Yankees pitcher Javier Vazquez was well aware of the possibility that Phillies leadoff man Jimmy Rollins would swing at the first pitch he saw on Monday afternoon. Nevertheless, Vazquez fired a fastball and Rollins connected, sending the first pitch of Vazquez's second term with the Yankees over the right field fence.
Vazquez laughed about the homer later, an expected reaction, considering what happened the rest of the way in the Yankees' 7-5 split squad victory.
Featuring a repertoire that he's refined since his disappointing departure from the Bronx following the 2004 season, Vazquez struck out four of the last six batters he faced to wrap up his two-inning spring training debut.
"The important thing is that I got my work in," said Vazquez, who breezed through his outing so efficiently that after leaving the game, he had to throw in the bullpen to reach his pitch count. "I'm throwing all my pitches. I threw the ball good."
In going15-10 with a 2.87 ERA with the Braves last season, Vazquez used his offspeed pitches more than at any point in his career. And on Monday, facing a familiar NL-foe in the Phillies, he showed off the confidence he has grown in those pitches.
Vazquez's aggressiveness on the mound and the sharpness of his slider, curve and changeup prompted catcher Jorge Posada -- who worked with the pitcher back in 2004 -- to rave about "a different Javy."
A look at Vazquez's pitch-type percentages (courtesy FanGraphs) illustrates the change in Vazquez's approach. The following is a list of Vazquez's fastball percentages by season:
2002: 60.0 percent
2003: 57.6 percent
2004: 56.9 percent
2005: 55.9 percent
2006: 55.8 percent
2007: 53.0 percent
2008: 53.2 percent
2009: 49.9 percent
At various points in his career, Vazquez's curveball, changeup and slider (20.2 percent last season) have each been his favored secondary pitch. And as we've covered here before, Vazquez's curveball was key in 2009.
But for the first time in his career, he threw each of all three of his offpseed pitches at least 13 percent of the time. Said Vazquez: "I'm mixing it up a little bit better than I used to."
And it was that mix that stood out in Vazquez's return, showcasing his nasty curveball and a deceptive changeup that remains a key part of his arsenal.
"I liked what I saw," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "He's got outstanding offspeed stuff and a moving fastball. He's just adding to what he had."
While Vazquez displayed his improved arsenal in Tampa, Yankees right-hander Alfredo Aceves became the latest under-the-radar candidate to offer proof that he merits consideration for the final open spot in the rotation.
Aceves threw four perfect innings as the Yankees' split squad blanked the Pirates 6-0 in Bradenton. In spring training innings, Aceves has been perfect, facing the minimum 18 batters. He has four strikeouts.

Bill, Good point about reminding us that the external speaker works, and no excessive heating. The series RC on IC audio stages is NOT switched out, especially when using an external speaker with extra lengths of cable that provides varying feedback. The RC is to restrict the high gain IC from taking off at ultrasonic frequencies in all situations. Given that you have the problems only with the internal speaker in use, you have a short or magnetic short in that speaker or the attached wiring from the speaker jack to the internal speaker. I can't imagine the coupling cap being switched out if you use the external speaker either, so that remands us to the internal speaker being at fault. It may not be as bad as it looks to access the wires going from the speaker jack to the internal speaker. Check across those terminals with an ohmmeter when the jack is open, and see if you have a short other than the low impedance of a speaker coil. Check also from each wire to chassis ground, in case this set employs a floating audio output. Expect to see 5 ohms or so for an 8 ohm impedance speaker. This can vary, so anything over a couple of ohms but less than the speaker impedance is probably ok across the pair. -Stuart Rohre K5KVH _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list email@example.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/tentec

The good news for Florida Coach Will Muschamp is the number of key players he'll have returning next season, including quarterback Jeff Driskel. But there will be one player leaving that Muschamp says he dreads won't be around next year.
Gators senior kicker Caleb Sturgis will conclude his collegiate career in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on Wednesday in the Allstate Sugar Bowl against Louisville. Sturgis has been near automatic for the Gators this season and likely will be taken in the NFL draft.
"I don't want to think about it,'' Muschamp said of Sturgis' departure.
Sturgis was a finalist for the Lou Groza Award this season, which went to Tulane's Cairos Santos, who did not miss a field goal in 2012. Sturgis was 23 of 27 on field goals and had three of the four misses blocked.
He was 3 for 3 from 50 yards out and 5 for 6 from 40 yards out. His 69 career field goals is the Florida record and seventh in SEC history.
Sturgis was a third-team Associated Press All-America selection and first team All-SEC.
So confident is Muschamp in Sturgis that he was kicking himself for calling for a fake field goal against Florida State that failed.
"You fake a field goal and you really question yourself because you know you probably just left three points out there,'' Muschamp said. "I think he's the best place-kicker in the country. He's very accurate, very dependable and he's got an explosive leg. There's no question he's a game-changer for us.''

The New Orleans stop on the PGA Tour always has been a favorite of Charles Howell III.
In seven appearances here since 2001, Howell made seven cuts and finished in the top 10 four times. In his last two appearances in the Zurich Classic, he tied for second place, last year sharing the runner-up position with Rory Sabbatini and Charlie Wi.
"I remember when I was first starting as a pro,'' Howell said. "New Orleans gave me a sponsor's exemption to play here. And I think it's always important to remember that and come back and support the event.
"Beyond that, this is my favorite stop of the year. I love downtown. I love the French Quarter. Commander's Palace is my favorite restaurant of the year without question. I'll probably be there three or four times this week.''
Howell, 30, has been a consistent money-maker throughout his career. He has earned at least $1 million every season since 2001. In 11 events this year, he has earned $842,071, ranking 31st on the money list.
His game has stood up well to TPC Louisiana.
"Generally speaking, it's quite windy here,'' he said. "I enjoy playing in the wind. It's a long course on paper, but at times it doesn't play long, because it does get so firm and fast. You would also hear that there's not much rough, and you would think that that may make it easier. Here, that might make it more difficult, because the ball will run away from you, especially when winds get to cooking pretty good out of the south. It gets drying fast real quick.''
Howell, who has won twice on tour, hasn't won since 2007. Not eligible for the Masters this year, he watched on television. Tiger Woods' tie for fourth in his comeback to golf didn't surprise Howell.
"With what transpired with him and his family, to finish fourth, it's an incredible accomplishment on the golf course to do that,'' Howell said. "But any time his back is against the wall or someone bets against him, he proves them wrong. So I wouldn't have been surprised in the least if had won the tournament, frankly.''
Fred Funk is playing the Zurich Classic this week instead of staying on the Champions Tour to play in the Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf, a team event.
"I lost my partner,'' said Funk, 53. "Scott Hoch was hurt.''
Funk is coming back from knee replacement surgery, which he had Nov. 16.
"I'm just trying to get my rounds in,'' said Funk, who has played in six tournaments this year – two on the PGA Tour and four on the Champions Tour.
The knee is doing fine, he said.
"It's coming along,'' he said as he hit chips on the driving range. "I'm looking for a brain replacement.''
Funk has won eight PGA Tour events, including the Players Championship in 2005. In 2006, he tied for second with Howell in the Zurich Classic at English Turn.
His five Champions Tour wins include a victory in the U.S. Senior Open in 2009.
Ian Poulter, who won the Accenture Match Play Championship this year, 2009 Zurich winner Jerry Kelly and eight-time PGA Tour winner Stuart Appleby will tee off on No. 10 at 7:30 a.m. Thursday.
Andres Romero, who won the Zurich in 2008, K.J. Choi, who won in New Orleans in 2002, and Rory Sabbatini, who tied for second in the Zurich Classic last year, will tee off on No. 1 at 12:30 p.m. Thursday. Romero is coming off a victory last week in the Tour de las Americas' event in Cordoba, Argentina.
Rich Beem, Brett Wetterich and Matt Every have withdrawn from the tournament.
Beem is scheduled to have surgery Thursday for a ruptured disc, according to a PGA Tour official. Every broke a finger, the official said.
Cliff Kresge, Steve Elkington and Skip Kendall drew into the field. Elkington was a consultant to Pete Dye when he designed TPC Louisiana.
Local professional golfer Kelly Gibson, Cox Louisiana and the Fore!Kids Foundation will be putting on a series of eight junior golf tournaments in the New Orleans area.
The first tournament will be on June 7, and the series will conclude with a tournament July 26 at TPC Louisiana.
The junior tour will award golf scholarships based on community service, grade point average and financial need, Gibson said in a press release. "Scholarships will not be based on golfing ability," he said.

As you said, everything you can do in a scripting language you could do in C++, but anything that helps speed up production is a good thing, right?
Of course, there is a little overhead to run the scripting interpreter on top of your game but with today's systems you should see much of an impact.

You can leverage C++ in ways that yield a great deal of performance, but at the same time it has essentially no guardrails and pitfalls are not uncommon -- things like memory leaks, maintaining ownership of resources correctly, and the rabbit-hole of premature optimization. In truth, a large part of the game-specific elements don't need all the performance that C++ can offer you, and so it doesn't make sense to expose that part of the code to all the potential pitfalls. Instead, you can implement those parts of code in a language that is safer, more productive, and "efficient enough" -- and leave the core engine to more-experienced programmers using C++.
There still exists a certain inertia among game developers that "all code is performance-critical" and for a certain type of developer -- say, those pushing the limits of AAA console gaming, it's not entirely untrue. However, this notion that this is true of all games is something that dogs some in the industry, and far too many of those aspiring to be in it.
Objectively, yes, performance matters (you can measure it it, therefore you can rank it), and 300 frames per second is "better" than 270 frames per second -- but subjectively, no one's going to notice whether your game runs at "only" 80 or so frames per second. In the end, all that matters to the consumer is "does this run well enough on my hardware?" and the number of consumers you want to reach is defined by "what hardware can I make this thing run well on?"

- Faster/easier iteration when testing new ideas (because you don't need to recompile).
- Allows for non-programmers to take an increased role in development.
- Can protect the programmer from some mistakes that can occur in lower level programming languages.
- Can easily allow players to mod the game.
So far I only see one disadvantage listed though: code written in a scripting language has a run-time overhead and may execute slower than lower level code. As already mentioned, this isn't a big problem the majority of the time, and the benefits above are usually well worth a slight hit to performance -- it is something to be aware of though, and depending on your needs means that you might not want to use scripting for everything.
Another disadvantage I wanted to list is that you need to spend a small amount of development time initially setting up your scripting language so that it works. In a great many cases the advantages listed above will outweigh this small investment in time and make it well worth the additional effort, but if you are creating a particularly small and simple game it might be worth considering.
Overall I personally think the inclusion and usage of a scripting language (Lua, Python, JavaScript, etc.) is well worth it for most projects above a certain (very simple) complexity, and is well worth considering. As a beginner who is just learning however, you might want to put it aside as something to look at more after you've spent more time learning your chosen lower-level language as well as programming in general.

There are other languages that can be used as scripting languages, such as Python and JavaScript. One thing I like especially about Lua, though, is that it works well for data description, which can be nice if you're into a more data-driven approach.

lua is great as once it is setup and going, it is wonderful, you can modify your game as it plays, not having to recompile and get to the state that you were testing
lua is horrible because setting it up can drive you insane. Well, at least me. Oh, and the documentation isn't always that helpful, for instance, lua_pcall(L, NumArgs, numRet, 0) when I first started using it I had my numArgs being the number of arguments the function needed, the documentation didn't specify specifically that the function call was also an argument, so it was failing on me. The documentation wasn't wrong, it just wasn't helpful enough for an impatient tiered student as of myself find understand it how it was meant to be.
I would recomend that you look into luabind... It can be hard to set up due to the lack of examples to follow and it can be made even harder if you can get impatient.
but once you have it implimented it can be really useful, I am currently working on my own luabinding, yes, it is driving me nuts, but the sheer flexibility it offers is what keeps me going at it.

Take no notice of this, Lua's documentation is excellent.
Oh, and the documentation isn't always that helpful, for instance, lua_pcall(L, NumArgs, numRet, 0) when I first started using it I had my numArgs being the number of arguments the function needed, the documentation didn't specify specifically that the function call was also an argument, so it was failing on me. The documentation wasn't wrong, it just wasn't helpful enough for an impatient tiered student as of myself find understand it how it was meant to be.
falconmick maybe you should read the documentation next time it clearly tells you the protocol as lua_pcall links to lua_call
As people are mentioning the speed of Lua compared to C and C++, if this does become a problem you can always you use the excellent and blazingly fast LuaJIT which supports quite a lot of platforms now with speed being the same or close to C code.
edit: I just can not let it go The Language's name is Lua not LUA,

the downvote button is for not agreeing with someones opinion. That is all it was, I gave a first hand experience of how I have experienced LUA (:3) and even given a description of myself so they can understand why I would say what Ive said
lua needs time to be build in correctly, it is somthing that should be planned and implemented in segments.

dmail: "falconmick" was reasonably clear that he is inexperienced and that he was just sharing his own experience with Lua, and I don't think his intention was to mislead anyone. We are in the "For Beginners" forum here, and correcting a beginner's mistake or taking a moment to highlight the fact that not everyone shares a particular opinion is great, but having been shown the contents of your PM I would suggest that you could be a lot more tactful in future.
falconmick: In future, please try not to lash out at other members; if you feel the contents of a private message are abusive or insulting you can use the "report" link at the bottom-right of the message to have a moderator review the situation for you.

95% of Taiwanese office workers willing to work in China: poll
February 3, 2013, 12:08 am TWN
TAIPEI--Almost 95 percent of Taiwan's office workers are willing to work in China, according to the results of an online survey released Saturday.
Compared with around 77 percent of people who expressed their willingness to pursue a career in China in a similar survey carried out in 2011, the number showed a significant increase as the result of warming ties between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, said the 1111 job bank, which conducted the survey Jan. 14-28.
The results show that 10.77 percent of the respondents were currently based in China, while 27.44 percent had worked there before.
Over 56 percent of office workers were thinking about finding a job there but had not taken any action, the results show.
Asked about what government-initiated policies and plans have increased their aspirations to enter the work force in China, over 46 percent referred to the signing of a cross-strait currency clearing agreement and the increasingly frequent financial exchanges.
Over 37 percent of the respondents attributed their interest to the increasing number of direct air and sea links between Taiwan and China, it said.
In addition, almost 33 percent of the respondents stressed the business potential created by the Chinese government's polices on urban development, compared with 31.48 percent who want to work there because of the inking of an investment protection agreement.
Market potential, improved work experience and increasing competitiveness were other key factors attracting the poll respondents.
The survey, conducted via email, collected 1,230 valid responses. It had a 95 percent confidence level and a margin of error of 2.79 percentage points.

In my opinion, a good policy is one that can touch our heart and protect our workers.
The last thing, the government want to do is searching a self-feeling.
Has government ever given any hope to somebody?

Hi guys.Appreciate the video. I actually really do like it. cheap wedding dresses
After two odd sequels, it's good to see the series returning to its roots with a game that looks like it's following in the original's spiritual footsteps, but with some extra paper effects and gameplay devices thrown in for good measure. Not bad.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Danny Salazar, for the second time in as many starts, went bad at the wrong time. If that's not enough cause for concern, the young right-hander thinks he might be tipping his pitches.
Salazar, working with a 1-0 lead Tuesday night, gave up a three-run homer to Mike Moustakas with two out in the fourth inning as Kansas City thumped the Indians, 8-2, in front of a small gathering of 8,848 at Progressive Field.
The collapse wasn't as bad as Salazar's fifth-inning fold against the Tigers in his last start, but he could not stop the rally in the fourth after Moustakas' third homer of the season. To make matters worse, Salazar didn't get much help from the Tribe's suspect defense.
Alcides Escobar followed Moustakas' homer with a single to left. He stole second and continued to third on a throwing error by catcher Yan Gomes. It was Gomes' sixth error in 18 games after he made three in 85 games last year.
If this keeps up someone might want to contact Andy Allanson for a quote. Allanson made 20 errors as the Tribe's backstop in 1986. Like Gomes, most came on bad throws to the bases.
With Escobar standing at third, Jarrod Dyson executed a perfect drag bunt down the first-base line as Escobar jogged home for a 4-1 lead. The swift Dyson beat Jason Kipnis to first base by a couple of steps ahead of Salazar's throw.
"The first three innings he was real aggressive," said manager Terry Francona. "He stuck some fastballs and off of that he threw some really powerful breaking balls."In the fourth, he's got runners on first and second with nobody out. He gets Alex Gordon to pop up. He strikes out Salvador Perez and then throws back-to-back change-ups to Moustakas. The second change-up was middle-middle and he hit it a long way.
"He looked a little frustrated after that and the ball started to come up, but the first three innings were really good."
Salazar said the second change-up to Moustakes was a mistake.
"I should have thrown a fastball outside," he said.
Salazar said he might be tipping his pitches.
"Maybe I'm doing something obvious where they know what's coming," said Salazar. "I mean, I've been feeling great ... strong. Compared to my last start, I felt like I was focused on every pitch I threw tonight."
Salazar wasn't sure if Moustakas knew a second change up was coming.
"But he was ready for it," said Salazar.
Salazar said he sometimes spreads his glove when he throws a change-up. He said he tried to cross up the Royals by spreading his glove when he threw his fastball.
"But sometimes I forget," said Salazar.
Salazar (0-3, 7.85) came out for the fifth, but was replaced by Josh Outman after allowing consecutive doubles to Eric Hosmer and Billy Butler to make it 5-1. Center fielder Michael Bourn went to the wall in pursuit of Butler's drive, but just missed catching it.
"Danny has the weapons to go through a lineup multiple times," said Francona. "This is more about executing pitches."
Salazar allowed five runs, four earned, on seven hits in 4 1/3 innings. He struck out six, walked two and threw 89 pitches. He is 0-2 in his career against the Royals. In his last two starts, Salazar has allowed nine earned runs on 13 hits and five walks in nine innings.
While Salazar's struggles continued, James Shields did a number on the Tribe's offense. After giving up an unearned run in the second, Shields didn't allow another run in his six innings. He struck out nine, walked one and allowed six hits.
Shields (2-2, 1.91) is only 4-5 lifetime against the Indians, but he's 3-0 with a 3.22 ERA against them over the last two seasons.
"Unfortunately, Shields is pretty much the same every time you see him," said Francona. "He pounds the strike zone and is very difficult to run on. He cuts his fastball and throws it into lefties. He competes, and that's why he's one of the best."
The Indians took their only lead in the second. After Asdrubal Cabrera reached on an error, David Murphy bounced a single through the middle as Cabrera hustled to third. Shields struck out Gomes, but bounced a pitch in the dirt that hit Lonnie Chisenhall to load the bases.
Bourn, who came into the game hitting .300 (6-for-20) against Shields, singled sharply to right to score Cabrera. The ball was hit so hard that Murphy had to stop at third. The Tribe never got another chance for a big inning as Nick Swisher lined out to center.
The Indians tried to get back in the game in the sixth. Michael Brantley singled, stole second and scored on Murphy's single to make it 5-2. The Royals, who have won six of their last eight games, responded quickly. They stretched the lead to 6-2 off C.C. Lee in the seventh. After Omar Infante hit a leadoff single, he came around to score on Hosmer's double down the left field line.
Kansas City added two more runs in the ninth on Alex Gordon's two-run double. The Tribe's bullpen hadn't allowed a run in 12 innings, but Lee and Scott Atchison combined to give up three runs in 2 2/3 innings against the Royals.
The Indians had their two-game winning streak snapped and dropped to 9-11 in April. They were limited to nine hits, two each by Bourn and Swisher.
"We had Shields on the ropes in the second," said Swisher. "That three-run homer really put us down. We battled back as best we could. We just didn't have enough tonight."

FAIRVIEW PARK, Ohio – Two men have been charged with felony theft and receiving stolen property after police said they led officers on a short chase in a stolen truck.
Daniel Hale, 36, of Cleveland, and Scott Stringer, 34, of Fairview Park, stole a 2010 Dodge Ram from a driveway on West 220th Street Monday, and fled from police after the owner reported it stolen, police said.
Around 1 a.m. the truck's owner called police and said he saw Hale and Stringer steal the pickup from his driveway, a police report said.
A short time later, an officer spotted the stolen vehicle near the intersection of Lorain Road and West 220th Street, the report said.
The two men refused to stop when the officer tried to pull them over with his cruiser, and a brief chase ensued that ended when police stopped the truck on West 226th Street, according to the report.
Several credit cards reported stolen from a Fairview Park man's car earlier that day were found inside the truck, the report said.
The two suspects remain in jail pending their first court appearance, police said.
Neither has been assigned an attorney, court records said.

By William P. Thompson
A number of Portales churches are set to celebrate Christ's resurrection this weekend and some traditional Easter holiday events are taking place around town. Dick Ross, pastor at First Baptist Church said he's not into the holiday trappings like Easter bunnies and hunting for eggs.
Ross said he's keeping Easter at First Baptist Church centered on Christ.
"The Easter message will be "Christ is Alive," Ross said. "Some families will gather after church for an Easter egg hunt at someone's home."
Reverend Harry Riser of First United Methodist Church said he's not turned off by Easter eggs.
"The egg was a symbol of resurrection for the early Christian church," Riser said. "Just looking at an egg, one might think it is dark inside, but new life comes out of it. We find it hard to believe that new life comes out of old life, but that is the message of Easter."
Riser said First United Methodist isn't holding anything back for it's Easter celebration.
"We will have quite a bit of music (at the 9:30 a.m. service on Sunday," he said. "Our handbell choirs will perform and the ENMU (Eastern New Mexico University) brass quintet will perform. We just try to make the day as beautiful as we can. The church is just beautiful with all the lillies inside."
Games involving Easter eggs will be staged at First United Methodist for children immediately after the 9:30 a.m. service. Riser said a special sunrise service at 6:30 a.m. Sunday will feature quite a bit of singing.
Pastor Kelly Fulfer of Trinity Family Center (an Assembly of God church) said he's preparing an Easter Sunday message called "The Tomb."
"Christ is alive. He came out of the tomb. He could have just left the tomb and left it closed, but the tomb was open for us to see," Fulfer said. "The message is going to be about living the kingdom life."
Fulfer said he's not going to deny anyone Easter fun.
"I'd like to work on a big Easter egg hunt for next year," he said. "I'm out to reach people who don't understand Jesus, but they understand the Easter holiday."
No community-wide Easter egg hunts are planned, but the Portales Wal-Mart is hosting an Easter egg hunt at 9 a.m. Saturday.
The following are some of the local Easter events scheduled:
• First Baptist Church, 100 S. Avenue C – Services 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. Sunday
• St. Helen's Catholic Church, 1600 S. Avenue O – Stations of the Cross, 3 p.m. today (Friday), Lord's Passion, 7 p.m. tonight. Easter vigil, midnight Saturday. Easter service (English) 8:45 a.m. Sunday and Easter service (Spanish) at 10:30 a.m. Sunday.

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said on Sunday that he has ordered a probe into the allegations of electoral fraud during the Dec. 4 parliamentary vote.
Tens of thousands rallied in Moscow and other cities on Saturday in the largest anti-government protest in Russia's post-Soviet history to protest the reported fraud and demand the departure of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.
Medvedev on Sunday broke two days of silence by posting a comment on his Facebook page.
"I disagree with the slogans as well as with the speeches that were made at the rallies," he said, but added that he gave instruction for a check of the reports of fraud. He did not mention who would carry out the probe.
Medvedev's post generated over 1,000 mostly angry comments within 50 minutes.
"Shame!" and "We don't believe you!" were the most common.
Other Facebook users asked Medvedev whether he really disagrees with the protest's main slogan, "We're for fair elections." Some wrote that Medvedev's message made them even more determined to take part in the next planned rally against electoral fraud — on Dec. 24.
Neither Medvedev nor Putin has made any public appearances over the weekend, although Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in a statement that the government "respects the point of view of the protesters" and is "hearing what is being said."
Unlike Putin, the tech-savvy Medvedev, Russia's president since 2008, has had enjoyed a certain support among an educated urban elite. But an announcement in September this year that he will step aside to let his mentor Putin run for a third term in office has angered many Medvedev supporters.

Since then, many of them have written guest commentaries published in the Adirondack Daily Enterprise. Their message has been consistent with other ardent railfans writing to the Enterprise, that rail service offers future value to the region that justifies keeping the rail infrastructure intact along the full length of the corridor.
