Prep wrestling: OVAC matmen compete Tuesday
ST. CLAIRSVILLE – The Ohio Valley Athletic Conference will look to continue its dominance as the 26th annual "Clash of the Champions" unfolds tonight inside St. Clairsville High School. The OVAC has won four of the last five events, including 43-21 last season at West Allegheny High School.
Tuesday night's match features OVAC All Stars against Midwestern Pennsylvania All Stars. It will be held on John Jenkins Court, starting at 7 p.m.. The event has been held annually since it originated in 1988. It alternates sites between the conferences.
A banquet honoring the wrestlers, parents, coaches and guests will be held Monday night at Undo's in Weirton, starting at 6.
The OVAC All Stars are selected by placement in last January's 61st annual Ron Mauck Tournament held inside WesBanco Arena in downtown Wheeling. The top senior placer in each weight class gets first shot at the team. If he declines, then the opportunity goes to the next highest senior placer, and so on until someone accepts.
This years OVAC team is comprised of six tournament titlists, a trio of sixth-placers, and one each that finished third, fourth, seventh and eighth. It also includes eight state qualifiers in either Ohio or West Virginia, and seven state placewinners, with half-a-dozen of them from the Mountain State. There will not be a match contested at 106.
OVAC champions on the roster are Isiaih Hood (132, University); Kameron Rayner (138, Caldwell); Johnny Davis (152, Wheeling Park); Eric Banks (160, Wheeling Park); Leo Hermann (170, Steubenville Catholic); and Geremy Paige (220, Wheeling Park).
Rounding out the team are Tyler Wiley (113, Caldwell); Josh Cornell (120, Oak Glen); Austin Singleton (126, Barnesville); Zac Sowers (145, Union Local); Lucas Borden (182, Steubenville Catholic); and Preston Wise (285, Brooke).
Caldwell's Tom Brown will be one of the OVAC wrestling coaches.
The Keystone Staters are led by Montour's Cole Macek who was 35-2 and wrestling for fifth place late Saturday night during the PIAA state meet in Hershey, Pa. He was undefeated going into the state meet. He was the WPIAL champion this year and is a 3-time state qualifier.
Also representing the MAC are Tristan Buxton (113, Trinity); Brendan Price (120, Canon-MacMillan); Travis Sonson (126, Hopewell); Jake Braddock (132, Blackhawk); Dustin Winkle (138, Hopewell); Donnie Kerr (145, Ellwood City); Grant Fetchet (152, South Fayette); Tyler Harris (160, McGuffey); Dalton Rosta (170, Laurel Highlands); Brad Grinnen (185, Ellwood City); Calvin Sitting (220 0r 285, Ambridge); and Will Bortmas (220 or 295, Butler)
Buxton was a WPIAL Section 4 regional qualifier, while Fetchet finished 40-4 and third in the WPIAL Southwest regional.

Its open-boundary policy allows restless skiers to find powder stashes, steeps and bowls throughout its 2,400 acres. "Who needs a terrain park? This place is a terrain park." But destination skiers might be disappointed by its lack of amenities. "No on-site lodging," complains one. Indeed, Alpine is hemmed in by national forests, with no private property for fancy hotels. Accordingly, Alpine gets dinged for its lack of après, lodging and dining.

July 2, 2013 —
Grants, both accepted and applied for, were the primary business of the day for the Wayne County Commissioners as they met on June 27.
Of these, the one likely to impact the most residents involved county human services. Human services director Andrea Whyte spoke on behalf of a $168,400 PennDOT capital equipment grant application, which in part would replace county transportation rolling stock including three buses and one van.
In addition, Whyte said the county will also enter into a partnership with PennDOT to install a system that will show the map location and identity of any of some 23 to 25 county transportation vehicles in service on any given day.
Whyte said the system would eliminate the current need to make random radio calls to locate the nearest drivers when a transportation request is made to any human services provider's office.
Equally important, Whyte explained that PennDOT reimbursement of funding for transportation is based on mileage. The new system will automate certification of the mileage of county vehicles, eliminating the use of driver written logs.
In keeping with civil service salary scales, the commissioners also approved a measure providing a 2.5% salary increase for county human services employees for the new 2013-14 fiscal year.
Federal funding for Wayne County job search and employment training is provided through the Pocono Counties Workforce Investment Area (WIA), which is a four-county cooperative also serving Carbon, Monroe and Pike counties. The commissioners approved a new financial agreement providing a 15% share of the federal funding to the WIA area.
The commissioners also endorsed an $18,000 state grant application from county detective Peter Hower, to fund computer hardware and software for a proposed central booking site for police in Wayne County's three municipal departments: Hawley, Honesdale and Waymart.
The new facility, to be sited on county property yet to be determined, would be available 24/7, employ the state's computer photo image network (CPIN), Commissioner Jonathan Fritz said.
In other business
At the request of county emergency services, the commissioners approved a letter to the state emergency management agency, endorsing a preliminary assessment of the 911 and Internet Protocol (IP) network, for proposed inclusion in the regional communications oversight group. That group, NEcore, now includes Carbon, Pike, Lehigh, Monroe and Schuylkill counties and the cities of Allentown and Bethlehem.
Commissioner Wendell Kay said that any actions recommended in the assessment would need to come back to the commissioners for further approvals.
The commissioners awarded a $17,709 contract, for collection of trash at county facilities through June of 2015, to the low bidder, Waste Management.
The annual Independence Day parade and celebration at Pleasant Mount will begin with the parade at 10 a.m., followed by ceremonies in the park with an appearance by Pennsylvania Senator Lisa Baker, a church barbeque, music and lots of other activities.

A Mexican man deported 11 times for entering the United State illegally was caught once again, this time on suspicion of drug trafficking.
Daniel Jupa-Fino, 21, of Sonora, Mexico, was taken into custody after fighting with the two officers at a truck stop in Eloy, Ariz.
Jupa-Fino was one of two men in a car chased by a Pinal County deputy Tuesday afternoon. The car was traveling west and when the deputy tried to pull it over it crossed into the eastbound lanes before stopping suddenly, Phoenix TV station KPHO reported.
Deputies said two men fled from the car and were chased into a nearby trailer park, where the passenger, 19-year-old Felipe Gonzalez-Tempura, was captured.
Jupa-Fino was found at a nearby gas station and taken into custody after a brief fight, KPHO reported.
Deputies told the TV station they found 220 pounds of marijuana worth more than $165,000 in the car, which was seized by authorities along with the drugs.
Both men are charged with possession of marijuana, possession of marijuana for sale and transportation of marijuana.

National NAACP condemns remarks
STEUBENVILLE — The former president of the Steubenville Branch of the NAACP is refuting comments attributed to him in the Thursday edition of an Internet newspaper.
"In no way, shape or form do I condone rape," stated Royal Mayo, currently a member of the executive committee of the Ohio State Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Mayo responded Thursday afternoon after a story in the International Business Times quoted him as saying a 16-year-old Weirton girl might have been a willing participant and might have been having consensual sex during a series of parties last August.
Two Steubenville High School students were arrested and charged with raping the girl.
MaLik Richmond and Trent Mays were found delinquent in Jefferson County Juvenile Court on March 17 and sentenced to the Ohio Youth Detention system.
I dont think MaLik Richmond got a fair trial, Mayo said Thursday.
Mayo made similar comments Tuesday night during the public forum at a Steubenville Council meeting.
I dont think MaLik Richmond received a fair trial. He was convicted in the court of public opinion before the trial. There has been talk about healing, but that healing cant begin until this wrong is righted, Mayo told council members.
Mayos remarks in the International Business Times prompted a quick response from the NAACPs national office.
The NAACP abhors the remarks attributed to Royal Mayo regarding the rape victim in Steubenville. The remarks are Mayos own, and do not reflect the position of the NAACP and its membership, said Derek Turner, director of communications in the organizations offices in Washington, D.C.
Rape is a despicable crime of violence. The NAACP understands that comments that blame victims for the actions of their attackers contribute to and perpetuate a culture of acquiescence to rape. The NAACP advocates strongly for a society where victims of rape and sexual assault can come forward and seek legal redress without further retribution from the community, media or society at large, Turner said in a prepared statement.
Mr. Mayo is not the president of the Steubenville NAACP and is not a spokesman for the NAACP. Mr. Mayo is a committee member with the Ohio State Conference, but is not a spokesperson in that capacity, either. By our by-laws, only the president of an NAACP unit is a spokesperson, Turner added.
I was speaking for myself not the NAACP, Mayo said Thursday afternoon.
Mayo declined further comment on the rape trial or the International Business Times during the Thursday afternoon telephone call and said he would be discussing the issue with his attorney.
Michael McIntyre, president of the Steubenville Branch of the NAACP, said Thursday afternoon he could not comment on the International Business Times or Mayos alleged remarks, because our branch is currently under the administration of the state NAACP conference.
Mayo attended the five-day trial of Richmond and Mays in Jefferson County Juvenile Court and is quoted in the online edition of the International Business Times questioning the lack of DNA evidence from all of the teens present at the time of the rape.
Mayo is also quoted in the article as saying there were many things in the case that seemed odd to him, citing inconclusive and not credible evidence against Richmond.
A special grand jury will start meeting in mid-April to determine if other crimes were committed.
I have reached the conclusion that this investigation cannot be completed, that we cannot bring finality to this matter without the convening of a grand jury. I am asking the Jefferson County Common Pleas Court to convene a grand jury to meet on or about April 15. My prosecutors will present evidence to this grand jury for it to determine if other crimes have been committed, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine announced at the Jefferson County Justice Center last week, minutes after Richmond was sentenced to a one-year sentence and Mays to a two-year term by visiting Juvenile Judge Thomas Lipps.

Franken seeks to expand mental health care
Sen. Al Franken is unveiling a bill to increase funding for mental health problems in prisons and jails.
The Minnesota Democrat unveiled the bill Wednesday in Duluth. It would continue federal funding for courts that divert the mentally ill from prison into treatment, and increase training police officers to better handle people with mental health issues.
It would also fund treatment courts for veterans.
Franken says better mental health care could cut expenses in the nation's criminal justice system and reduce the number of people who re-offend.
Hennepin County Sheriff Rich Stanek has estimated that nearly one-third of the inmates booked into his county's jails each year suffer from some form of mental illness.

Player Matchup:After rallying to wins in their last two games against a pair of teams in playoff position, the New York Knicks hope to capitalize on a meeting with one of the league's struggling clubs.
The Knicks continue their five-game road trip Friday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
New York (27-37) overcame a 12-point deficit in the fourth quarter Wednesday to beat Detroit 116-111 in overtime. That performance came a night after the Knicks rallied from nine down at halftime in a 120-112 win over Milwaukee. They opened the trip with a 106-101 loss to New Jersey on Sunday.
"That's two nights in a row that we've been able to turn up the screws a bit in the second half," said coach Mike D'Antoni, whose team had dropped 12 of 16 before the back-to-back wins. "This one was against a really good team.
"It looked like we had no hope, but now we have a little hope. We just have to keep up this intensity and keep playing this way."
The Knicks, owners of a 9-22 road record, are 13th in the Eastern Conference, but they're only 1 1/2 games behind the eighth-place Bucks for the final playoff position. They close out their trip against East-leading Cleveland on Sunday.
Nate Robinson has been key over the last two games, going 19-for-39 (48.7 percent) from the floor to total 62 points with 13 assists. The reserve guard has been outstanding late in those contests, amassing 27 of those points in the fourth quarter and overtime.
Robinson is second on New York with 18.1 points and 4.0 assists per game - both career highs. He put up 26 points and tied a career high with 10 rebounds in a 120-107 loss to Minnesota (19-45) on Dec. 26.
The Knicks have dropped 12 of their last 15 against the Timberwolves, who are 11th in the West and have been eliminated from playoff contention.
The Wolves, though, are looking to build on Wednesday's 104-79 win over Memphis that snapped a 10-game losing streak.
"It was important to make some shots and have something happen to us in a positive way," coach Kevin McHale said. "We haven't had a lot of positive happen lately."
One of those positive developments for the Wolves lately has been the improved play of rookie Kevin Love, who was acquired by McHale with swingman Mike Miller in a draft-day trade from Memphis for O.J. Mayo.
Love is averaging 15.4 points and 11.4 rebounds over the last five games, including 19 and 11 on Wednesday. That strong stretch has increased his season averages to 10.2 points and 8.9 rebounds, and is a vast improvement from the dismal start to his NBA career when he averaged 7.6 points and 7.7 boards over his first 31 games. "It feels great. I've got to keep continuing to improve," Love said. "The fact that I have 20 double-doubles with how I started off, for me I'm not trying to hype myself up, but that's pretty impressive."
David Lee Vs. Kevin Love
Kevin Love has been impressive since Al Jefferson went down for the season with an injury. He's a great young talent with a high basketball IQ and great rebounding ability. He can shoot, and has a very good post game. David Lee will have his hands full, and will have to make him work on defense. Love's conditioning isn't great, so hopefully our running style will tire him out.
Knicks- 120
Timberwolves- 110

lets hope the knicks play with passion and that "every game is their last" mentality. they have lost to some terrible teams, last thing we need is a loss to a minny team without their only good player. LETS GO KNICKS, and also hope the nets, bulls, bucks, pacers, and raptors lose (damn theres a lotta of em)
nd of course nice thread jay
Great Game Thread.... No Pix = No Game For me.... Big East Hoops for me I guess. Bottom Line, Knicks GOT to have this game tonight, Cleveland on Sunday, if we can get a win tonight it would decrease the sting of possibly losing to the cavs... Lets go Knicks! Got to have it!
I have faith in Donnie Walsh
This is a really good thread JJ. Stylin'! To lose this game would show just how bi-polar this team is. Surely we'll beat them by at least 10 points. We def should! I'd say that Duhon v Telfair is the big match up. I know everyone's been haggling Duhon for **** play lately, so I think this game is a big one for him to show a bit of resolve. Sweet Thread!!!!!
Foye is 90% sure he is gonna play according to yahoo.com. Oh well the knicks can still beat them.
Thanks for all the compliments! I don't think we can lose this game. The T-Wolves without Al Jefferson should be an easy win. But who knows with this team...
Haha great... we absolutely should win this game and potentially improve on at least one of the teams ahead of us for playoffs, this being the case these are typically the games we stink up the court for
"Tough times don't last forever, tough people do"
best starting 5.....i think mike is a lurker on this site
Larry Hughes is a cancer. His chucking sucks the life out of the teams he plays on. That is exactly why he's been traded 7 times in his career.

The Lake Superior Binational Forum is saddened to say that future funding used to support our programs that's been allocated through the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will end when the Forum's current grant expires in early 2015.
The Forum has been an active outreach and diverse stakeholder group that's been working basin wide since its founding in 1991. We have been very fortunate to have been supported by EPA funding since then.
GLRI funds are allocated through Congressional budgets and are used to clean up toxic hot spots called Areas of Concern in the Great Lakes, as well as funding restorations of impaired areas to return them to more natural ecosystems. The GLRI initiative has brought $1.6 billion dollars to Great Lakes work since 2010, which is the most robust investment in lakes work for many decades.
EPA has told the Forum that in the future, the state agencies and tribes that receive GLRI funds will be responsible for the development of their own outreach and public comment opportunities.
The Forum is exploring other options for funding including donations, foundations, memberships, and other means of supporting successful outreach program such as Lake Superior Day, an annual environmental stewardship awards program, an electronic newsletter, weekly radio program, open public meetings, and other projects.
Contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com for more information on what you can do to help us move forward with new funding options and program ideas.
As a stakeholder group that was given the authority by binational agencies to solicit and gather public input from lake users, we invite you to send comments to EPA on whether you think public stakeholder and outreach forums, such as this one for Lake Superior, are important to you and the lake.

Fillmore, Utah---The 2013 Annual Recreation Passes for Little Sahara Recreation Area (LSRA) are available for purchase year-around at the BLM Fillmore, Salt Lake Field Offices and LSRA.
Did You Know?You are the proud owner of 60,000 acres of sagebrush flats, Juniper covered hills and free moving sand dunes? Ride freely across sand dunes, unending trails, and enjoy a 700-foot mountain of sand.
Come and enjoy the unusual white sand while playing, sun bathing and castle building. Close your day by relaxing to a sage tinted sunset. Enjoy the most beautiful sunsets you'll see anywhere.
A Sandy Reminder of Ancient Lake BonnevilleA plentiful sand source and strong prevailing winds have combined to create Little Sahara, one of the largest dune fields found in Utah. Most of the sand at Little Sahara is the result of deposits left by the Sevier River, which once flowed into ancient Lake Bonneville some 15,000 years ago. After the lake receded, the southwesterly winds that blew across the Sevier Desert picked up the exposed sand. Sand Mountain, in the middle of the dune field, deflected the wind upward, causing it to slow and drop its load of sand. Sand particles, composed mostly of quartz, fell downwind among the sagebrush and Juniper around Sand Mountain ultimately creating a 124 square-mile system of giant, free-moving sand dunes.Rockwell-When It's Time to Relax and Hike a HillYou can experience the quiet side of Little Sahara at the Rockwell Outstanding Natural Area. Set aside as a vehicle-free zone, this 9,000 acre unit is a miniature version of the larger surrounding desert ecosystem. Rockwell's sand dunes, scattered Junipers, and sagebrush flats provide habitat for a diverse array of plants and animals. Mule deer and antelope, 15 species of birds, the Desert Whipsnake, and eight other species of reptiles live here. Stands of Utah juniper, sagebrush, grasses typical to the Great Basin, and an extremely rare variety of saltbush dot the landscape.

May We Suggest . . .Sand Mountain: A wall of sand climbing nearly 700 feet high provides the ultimatechallenge to rider and machine. This is the prime focal point for hill climbing.White Sand Dunes: Easy access to dunes and plentiful riding bowls attract riders of all abilities to this spot on the north end of the recreation area.Dunes southwest of Black Mountain: The low-lying dunes provide good terrain for beginners or for those who just want to get away from the crowds.Black Mountain: A network of dirt trails around this peak offer excellent trail riding for just about any kind of off-highway vehicle.
Camping. . .White Sands: Campsites nestled among the Juniper trees and immediate access to the dunes makes this a popular destination with 100 campsites, flushable toilets (vault in winter), drinking water and a fenced play area.Oasis: The most developed site in the recreation area. Paved pads for trailers and motor homes combined with ready access to the dunes makes this a popular site with families. There are 115 campsites, flushable toilets (vault in winter), RV flush station and drinking water.Jericho: Originally designed as a fenced picnic area, Jericho now serves as a picnic and camping area.

How to Keep a Great Place Great• Helmets are the law if you are under the age of 18. If older, why tempt the law of averages?• Broken Glass in the sand is dangerous. Glass containers, paintball guns, and wooden pallets are prohibited.• Drinking and driving is against the law. Riding ATVs while under the influence, puts yourselfas well as others at risk.• Safety flags. For safety's sake, Federal and State regulations require the use of safety flags within recreation area.• Forget the firearms. Discharging them at Little Sahara is illegal, so please leave them at home.• Vandalism of toilets and tables is everyone's loss and costs all of us money. If you observe vandalism, please report it to a BLM employee.• If you pack it in, pack it out. Aluminum and glass don't burn, so please keep them out of your campfire.• Play safe, not sorry. Each year several people are seriously injured or killed on the dunes due to accidents. Always check for steep drop-offs or other riders before powering over the crest of dune.• Remember, watch out for pedestrians, children, and their pets playing in the dunes.• Tread Lightly! Drive responsibly to protect the environment and preserve your opportunities to enjoy the many recreational experiences Little Sahara offers.

County Judge David Silva said that, indeed, people are seeing more traffic, but that is on the state roads and highways. Senate Bill 1778 isn't for state roads. It is for county road repair.
"There are not that many roads for us," Silva said. "If they continue this, and we get into natural gas rather than oil, and we have more gas than oil, then at that point we would become involved."
This doesn't mean the county isn't doing preemptive work to keep the roads repaired.
About a year ago, the county commissioners signed agreements with the oil and gas drillers that these companies would pay $9,500 for each well permitted or drilled — depending upon the agreement.
However, this doesn't amount to a windfall of money. These agreements have since expired and because of possible legislation such as SB 1778, their renewal was postponed.
"The oil drilling in Bee County is very limited," Silva said. "They are building pipelines all over the place."
Probably the biggest benefit the county has seen is the replacement of the low water crossing on King Lane in northern Bee County.
This project has had its road bumps, including the change from a bridge to a better than existing low water crossing. But it is still coming in at no cost the county.
Texstar Midstream and Teak Midstream together contributed $250,000 for the project.
For counties like Karnes, McMullen and Live Oak, the road repair situation is far more dire.
The Senate Finance Committee Monday considered this new legislation by Sen. Judith Zaffirini, D-Laredo, that would provide funding for critical transportation infrastructure projects in the Eagle Ford Shale and other shale regions.
SB 1778 would direct a percentage of severance taxes on oil and gas production to facilitate transportation infrastructure projects in the shale regions, including comprehensive construction, maintenance and improvement of county and state roads impacted by oil and gas development.
"The Eagle Ford Shale is a tremendous economic asset to South Texas, but increased truck traffic has strained our rural roadways, threatening public safety and commerce," said Sen. Zaffirini, whose district includes the majority of rigs and production and the top-producing counties. "My bill would ensure that a portion of tax revenue generated by oil and gas production would stay in the region and address a critical need."
The Texas Department of Transportation has estimated that it could cost $1 billion to repair the roads impacted by energy production in the Eagle Ford Shale and other areas of the state.

I'm new to the forums and wonder if anyone can help with some advice. My 13mo DD2 has just got her first teeth and the very first one, at the top, has been rubbing against my skin and caused sores. It is razor sharp! I managed to heal the first sore, on the left breast, by changing positions for a few days as it only seemed to rub in one certain position, but I've now got a stubborn painful sore on the right at the base of the nipple. I'm using Lansinoh and am changing positions (which is the only way I can bare to feed atm as our 'usual' is complete agony :() but I've noticed the tooth is making indentations in other places too after a feed so if I carry on with those positions I probably will get sores there too.
Is this something that corrects itself and gets better without me doing anything, or do I need to somehow try to change her latch?
Also she's been biting me quite a lot last couple of days, both at the beginning and end of a feed. I'm hoping this is just due to another two teeth making their way through at the top, and that she'll stop it once they are through. Not enjoying the nursing very much right now and I really really hope we can get through this... I really don't want to give it up yet :(

Bet you can hardly wait for your next chance to fly the unfriendly skies on a commercial airline.
The full naked body scan or the frisky pat-down search. Which will you opt for?
I guess it depends on whether you want rather unconventional vacation photos or you're looking for cheap thrills.
I've been amazed, amused and mystified at the apparent outrage that's been ignited among the traveling public since the controversy of enhanced body scans by TSA agents at airports begun. The controversy has got people like my wife, who rarely travels by airplane, talking and e-mailed indignation circulating.
One of the few trips we took on an airline happened in the 1980s and had an interesting incident at a screening in Frankfurt, Germany.
We were with a tour group and I don't think the group of 30 or so New Mexicans and west Texans knew four words of German between us.
Changing planes there, the screeners told us in broken English something to the effect that we would have to go in two groups. The herd mentality kicked in and the harder she tried to separate us the tighter we bunched up and insisted we were all getting on the same plane.
Finally another airport worker with a little more English and a lot more tact broke the communication barrier and made us understand that what they actually wanted was just for us to separate into two lines for the screening check.
That was the first time I ever had a wand type metal detector used. It went off on my ball cap and things were fine after I figured out she wanted me to remove it.
I realize that was a pretty innocent time compared to the post-9-11 world we live in today. It irritates me to have to remember not to take a big bottle of aftershave or shampoo and while I do feel naked without my pocket knife, those inconveniences are something I'm more than willing to accept if we keep people safe.
I realize that people who fly more often than twice a decade might be more inconvenienced or even concerned about radiation from the scanners. For infrequent fliers like myself though it's all just a part of the spectacle of strapping myself into that big bird and defying the laws of gravity with raw power and the theory of an airplane wing.
From what I can tell, even with enhanced scanning technology the image still isn't a Playboy centerfold quality image. I have trouble figuring out what I'm looking at when a doctor hangs up an X-ray on the wall so airport scans don't excite me.
But for those who are still a little timid I would propose that TSA make one simple accommodation. Give the person a demonstration by allowing them to look at the image onscreen while the screener himself is scanned.
If that doesn't work out those who don't want the scan or an intrusive pat-down to do like the woman at LAX did recently, go through the line in your underwear and see if the screener still wants to pat you down. I bet if every 10th person in line was a middle-aged guy of about my build in nothing but his tighty-whiteys things would change quickly.

Bob's Xanthan Gum is higher quality and less expensive that most other quality brands.
Works for me.
Posted by Reviewer1014305 on Jul 22, 2010
Works well as a thickening agent in my chinese sauces and in regular gravy. It does take some adjustment/experimentation for each use, but it allows me to have what would be essentially forbidden on a low carb diet. It can tend to become very mucous like if too much is used.
Best thickener out there

A Geo-Odyssey
Technical Program: November 5-8, 2001
(II) Wine And Cheese Reception: Wednesday, Nov. 7, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Join your colleagues including members of the New England Science Writers association for wine and cheese in the Newsroom beginning at 5:30 p.m. At 6:30 p.m., H. Catherine Skinner of the Dept. of Geology and Geophysics, Yale University, will give an overview of the emerging field of medical geology and discuss what's hot in this new discipline:
"Everyone is concerned about health, but few give much thought to the geo-environment, the physical base of our existence. We need better understanding of natural phenomena and processes in addition to human alterations to the environment in order to make decisions that support good health. This understanding will come from integrating geological, medical, and dental expertise. Medical geology will encompass a wide variety of issues both natural and man-made with topics ranging from rock and soil influences on the quality of the food we eat and the water we drink, to impacts of pollutants on human health, to the role of disease in biodiversity crises and extinction events from the geologic past."
Note: The Pardee Keynote Symposium, "The Emerging Discipline of Medical Geology," takes place Monday, Nov. 5, 8:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m., in HCC Ballroom B.

Many athletes who consistently use Phytomax enjoy increased energy levels, faster recovery, improved immune system function, improved moods and mental clarity, and a higher quality of sleep. Why? Because they're providing what their body needs but isn't getting from their paltry intake of commercially grown, nutrient-diminished produce shipped across the continent, or even farther.
Phytomax is produced from Hydrilla verticilata, an aquatic plant with an impressive nutrient profile of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, fatty acids, antioxidants, RNA, DNA, chlorophyll, and other phytonutrients. Specific harvesting methods and special low-heat drying and fine-grinding processes preserve the "living" enzymes and rich nutrients stored in the plant, making Phytomax unequaled in nutrient density and bioavailability by any "green food" product currently on the market. All athletes should increase their intake of fresh, locally grown organic produce, but most of us either don't have it readily available, or we take dietary short cuts. That's why Phytomax belongs in your daily supplement program. One bottle contains 90 capsules.

Was having some digestion/malabsorption issues and these seemed to help in the short term. I eat a pretty balanced diet, but a boost here and there isn't bad when you're training hard.
Seems to help.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Had been having some stomach issues off the bike. Just not digesting all the nutrients I'd been taking in and feeling a bit tired and inefficient. Gave this a shot and it seemed to help stable things out. Obviously would be ideal to just eat healthy and have your system running in top shape all the time, but that's easier said than done. Worked well for me, so I'd recommend them if you're having some digestion issues.

Jordan Valdez had 2 pts, and Tony Aleman had 1 pt.

Kenedy vs Falls City
Tuesday night, the Kenedy Lions traveled to Falls City to take on the Beavers. "This has been a fun rivalry the last couple of years. The last three years, we were able to beat them at our place, but Falls City is a very tough place to play." The crowds wereinto the game from the beginning. Falls City came out strong from the opening tip, but the Lions were able to scratch and claw to stay in the game.
By the time the first quarter was over, Falls City was up 12-10. It was a battle of wills, as two great teams fought to the end in a game no one wanted to lose. The game went back and forth in the second quarter. When halftime rolled around, the Falls City Beaver were leading the Kenedy Lions 29-23. "We know it was going to be a battle in the second half, and we were going to have to step it up to win this game." The third quarter was back and forth. "It seemed like every time we knocked down a shot, Falls City had an answer."
With Falls City up 41-37 going into the 4th quarter, it was still anybody's game. The Lions had some critical mistakes, throwing the ball away on several possessions. The Lions never gave up, and fought to the end. With a 1:47 left on the clock, the Kenedy coach called timeout with the score tied 47-47.
With both fans yelling, Graham Lawrence was able to know down 2 free throws to give the Lions a 49-47 lead. The Falls City Beavers came down and tied the score 49-49 with less than a minute left in the game.
The defense stepped up for both sides. Until with 26 seconds left on the clock, Andre Martinez was fouled. He calmly stepped up to the line, and knocked down two big free throws to give the Lions a 2 point lead, 51-49.
With both crowds really into the game, the place was almost deafening. With the Lions fans yelling defense, and the Beaver fans yelling offense, the game came down to 26 seconds. The Beavers had 4 shots to tie or win the game. Dominic Cruz was able to corral the rebound, and called timeout with 2 seconds left on the clock.
With an inbounds pass, the Kenedy Lions were able to pull out the victory. "I had a hard time communicating with the team it was so loud. This was a fun game. It is very hard to win at Falls City. I credit my team with not giving up and fighting to the end. I told them at halftime, lets hang around, and try to win it at the end. I am so proud of team." Leading scorer for the Lions was Andre
Martinez with 13 pts, followed by Dominic Cruz with 12 pts, 10 rebounds, 4 assist, 1 block shot. Graham Lawrence played big inside with 7 pts and 4 blocked shots. Jacob Asebedo had 6 pts, Jordan Valdez had 6 pts, Joe Kiesling had 4 pts, Xavier Villarreal had 2 pts, and Tony Aleman 1 pt.
Kenedy vs Runge
The Lions played Runge at home Friday night and won, 59-42.
The win made Kenedy 14-7 for the season, and 3-0 in district.

This print started out as a baseball card more than twenty years ago. Every aspect of it is designed to preserve the original look and feel of the card, from the printing pattern to the slightly worn edges. In fact, this print started by finding the actual card in our vault and then painstakingly re-mastering it with a team of designers. The authenticity extends to manufacturing; each print is made on high-quality, cotton fine art paper that measures 1/64 inches in thickness. Framed prints feature 2-inch flat wood or metallic frames with high-end, glare-resistant glass. And all prints are officially licensed by MLB and the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
STORYMets reliever Roger McDowell looks to close out a road victory in this 1986 Topps card. McDowell shared closer duties with Jesse Orosco and won a career-high 14 games against nine losses with a 3.02 ERA and 22 saves. He pitched seven shutout innings in two appearances in the NLCS against Houston and pitched in five innings and got a win in the World Series against Boston.

Just got done watching on DVR. Very nice win today!! We easily could have lost this one.
Gallo had a real learning experience day. He got absolutely reamed by Mike D, used continually by (don't let 'em go left, he's unstoppable going that way!!) Tashaun Prince, but came threw in the end in part because of the trust Felton and Fields showed in him on those 3's. Gotta love it!
The system really showed itself well thru the execution today too. The SSOL can be deadly in OT. We basically put the game away w two shots. The Fields 3 was icing.
By moving the ball after either STAT or Felton drives in the paint and kicks back out we can get the shots we want --- GOOD OPEN LOOKS. Guys just have to knock down shots. The ball must move though.. Our guys have to commit to executing the O correctly this way. They really ran the high screen and roll well tnite. It was a big part of the game today.
Fields is a revelation! The man just hustles, hits open shots and plays his heart out on D. Let 'em continue to start once Azzy comes back 100% if he's gonna play like this. Go Knicks!!!
Really liked this game, loved the heart our team showed.

Portland Becomes First Salmon-Safe City
Mayor Hales issues Salmon-Safe challenge to other West Coast citiesRead More…
Phone: 503-823-4120
1221 SW 4th Avenue, Room 340, Portland, OR 97204
JULY 2, 2013 – Summer is here, and with it comes hot weather.
Portland Parks & Recreation reminds everyone that it's possible to have fun and stay safe.
"Summer is a wonderful time to experience what Portland Parks & Recreation has to offer," Parks Commissioner Amanda Fritz said. "From our community centers, camps, classes and the Summer Free for All series of movies and concerts in our parks, there is plenty to choose from."
Fritz encouraged all park-goers to follow the Parks & Recreation guidelines for staying healthy and having fun:
• Stay hydrated: Water works best, and you should drink at least 8 glasses per day (8 oz. each, drink more if you are working, playing or exercising.)
• Sleep well: Rest is important to the daily recovery of muscles and your body and brain function.
• Choose food wisely: A sugar rush is usually followed by sugar burnout, about 30 minutes later. Instead, choose whole food proteins, healthy fats and natural sources of carbohydrates. If it wasn't around a thousand years ago or is made by man (and not nature), chances are you don't need it.
For more smart food choices, please see http://zenhabits.net/beat-the-sugar-habit-3-steps-to-cut-sweets-mostly-out-of-your-life/
• Don't burn: Remember to pack and use sunscreen.
• Cooling centers: People in need of heat relief are encouraged to visit 211info.org or to call 211 for the locations of cooling centers in your area. Other places to get out of the heat include Portland Parks & Recreation Communty Centers, libraries, shopping malls, and nonprofit organizations.
Our H20 is NOT too low: The Portland Water Bureau assures us that Portland's current water use is normal for this time of year.
The Bull Run reservoirs have plenty of water to meet the higher summer demand that comes with hot weather.
Anyone with questions can call the Portland Water Bureau Customer Service Center at (503) 823-7770.
Portland Parks & Rec pools offer open play swims, water exercise classes, junior lifeguard training, junior swim training, summer swim teams, and special events.
For more information on how to register for swimming lessons or participate in other summer activities, contact the pool in your area or the Aquatic Administration Office at (503) 823-5130.

Ecological Agriculture: The Science and Policy of Food Systems
Fall 2013, Winter 2014 and Spring 2014 quarters
Taught by
Currently, more than three-quarters of the arable land mass of the planet is influenced by human needs and desires for food and fiber. There are competing visions for the future of our agriculture and food systems. A global, fossil fuel-based system provides large quantities of inexpensive food along with significant environmental and social impacts. Another vision is a local, community-based system that produces higher quality, but more expensive food while seeking to minimize environmental and social impacts. Critical questions that will inform our inquiry include: Can we grow high-quality food that is available to everyone? What kinds of agriculture, as Wendell Berry and Wes Jackson ask, will "meet the expectations of the land"? Are local, sustainable, alternative food systems best? Can Native American agriculture inform us? What is the role of the small farm and urban agriculture? How did we get into this current agricultural predicament? What local, state and national policies need to be changed to create a more sustainable food system? How can an individual make a difference?
This program will provide a broad, interdisciplinary study of agriculture in the context of food systems. We will explore competing ideas from a critical perspective of social and ecological sustainability. We will emphasize the development of ecological and holistic thinking, which will be applied in hands-on laboratory and field exercises, expository and scientific report writing, quantitative reasoning, as well as community engagement. Lectures will focus on ecological principles applied to agroecosystems, soil science and fertility management, crop and livestock management, traditional indigenous agriculture, permaculture and regional to global food systems, as well as an examination of history, policy, and the social, political, and economic context of agriculture.
Fall emphasis: The agroecology portion of fall quarter will emphasize energy flow and biodiversity in agricultural systems. Labs will focus on ecological principles applied to agriculture. The social science and policy portion will emphasize agricultural history, geography and the development of the modern industrial food system and be complemented by seminar readings and discussions. A multi-day field trip to local farms, livestock producers, Native American resource use system and urban gardens will familiarize us with the reality of farming and the local food system.
Winter emphasis: The agroecology portion of winter quarter will focus on soil science, particularly soil ecology and nutrient cycling in lecture and lab. The social science and policy portion will examine the impact of current farm and food policy on agriculture and opportunities for pursuing sustainability at the local level. Seminar will critically examine potential futures for agriculture. Farm visits and an extended field trip to attend the Eco-Farm conference in California are planned.
Spring emphasis: We will study agroecology, traditional agriculture and permaculture in a tropical context. Seminar will focus on international "sustainable development" and its contradictions, successes and challenges. As a final project, students will apply their knowledge of tropical crops and soils to create a farm plan in a geographic area of their choice. This would be excellent preparation for an internship abroad and/or Peace Corps.
In spring this program will be teaming up with Student-Originated Studies: Seeds, Beads, Bees and other Biodynamical Processes to offer students choices for a 6 day Skagit Valley/Lopez Island field trip and joint modules in Tropical Cropping Systems/Permaculture; Seminar on International Development; Organic Gardening Practicum; Biodynamic Culture and Agriculture Seminar; Artist Lecture Series; Critical and Cultural Theory Lecture and Discussion Series; Community-Based Service Learning or Internships in Food and Agriculture.

text: I doubt it. But the thought is intruiging. I never liked Kobe at all. I never wanted to see him in a NYK uniform. but this whole rape thing has humbled him, and I dont see him as such a punkass anymore. so I might welcome him to our team if he came over here.. but the notion that anyone would want to take on Houston's bloated contract is hard to believe. We'll see what happens.. I'd like something nice to come out of this summer since our first rounder is gone.. And it seems like 'Sheed is enjoying his stay in detroit, so he'll probably stay with them. We'll see..
