American Legion Baseball: B/L tops Toronto
TORONTO – The road warriors continued their march through Jefferson County.
Beverly/Lowell scored an unearned run in the top of the 10th inning to earn a 7-6 victory over Toronto in a wild-and-wacky affair Wednesday evening at the Knight Baseball Complex.
Post 389/750 jumped out to a 6-2 lead before Post 86 plated four runs over three innings to eventually send the game into extra innings.
"We played well," Toronto (3-12) head coach Steve Sninchak said. "We just had a couple of miscues and a couple of walks that hurt us, but we kept battling. We outhit them. We kept plugging away. There was no quit in them. We have been playing that way for the last week-and-a-half, two weeks."
The game was Beverly/Lowell's second game in 24 hours in Jefferson County. Tuesday, Beverly-Lowell defeated Steubenville, 6-2, at Vaccaro Field.
"It was a very-interesting game," Beverly/Lowell head coach Todd Engle said about his team's win over Toronto. "We played at Steubenville yesterday. We had a two-hour trip up here, and I knew our kids were going to be lethargic in the beginning.
"I thought we played well offensively yesterday, but today I thought we threw away some at-bats but you have to give credit to their pitchers. They are a good team. They are well coached. Their kids compete. We were probably fortunate to come out on top."
Ben Barnas, who was Post 389/750s fourth pitcher, recorded the win. Barnas struck out three while not walking a batter in two innings of work.
Dustin Duffy started the game for the victors. Duffy also struck out three while not issuing a free pass in five innings. Jordan Hill pitched the next two innings. He did not record a strikeout or a walk. Phillip Hoffman, who will be entering 9th grade in the fall, pitched the eighth inning. Hoffman did not record a strikeout while walking two.
"This is our 20th game, and we were able to get back to .500," Engle said. "We have played an extremely tough schedule. Our team is not a team that has had many breaks. We are going to continue to get better.
"We are a young team. There is a lot of youth there. Our third pitcher, he is just 14 years-old. I had to see how he would respond. We are trying some new things.
"Their outfielders made some nice catches. They deserved a better fate than a loss."
Nate Stewart took the loss. Stewart struck out two and walked one in 4 2/3 innings of work in relief of starter Logan Allen. Allen, who pitched 5 1/3 innings, recorded four strikeouts and five walks during his time on the hill.
Neither team played a clean game in the field. Beverly/Lowell committed two errors, while Toronto committed six errors, including one one a throwing error in the 10th that led to the game-winning run being scored.
"We just came up short," Sninchak said. "They are a good team over there. Our kids were focused. We just had some miscues and some walks. I think we outhit them. We hit the ball well. It was a good ballgame."
After keeping Post 389/750 off of the scoreboard in the top of the first, Post 86 plated a run in the bottom half of the frame to take an early 1-0 lead on an RBI single by Justin Mavromatis.
After two walks and an error in the second, Devin Leister doubled home a pair of runs giving the visitors a 2-1 advantage.
The victors added to their lead two more runs in the fifth on a two-run single by Ethan Estes.
Toronto tallied a run in the bottom half of the inning on a sacrifice fly by Billy Solomon to pull within 4-2.
Post 389/750 regained control of the game by plating a pair of runs for the second-straight inning in the sixth. The second run of the inning proved to be costly for Toronto.
With one out, Leister drew a bases-loaded walk to make the score 5-2, and Hoffman stepped to the plate as a pinch hitter for DH Mitch Minder. Hoffman hit a groundball up the middle. The Toronto defender stepped on second base for the force out, but instead of throwing to first to complete the double play, the Post 86 fielder ran down the Post 389/750 player, who was running to third. The runner was eventually tagged out short of the base, but the runner from third was able to score on the play to make the score 6-2.
Toronto scored one in the fourth and fifth innings to make it 6-4.
The hosts tied it with two in the eighth as Romey plated a run with a groundout and Lane scored on a wild pitch by Hoffman.
After a scoreless ninth inning, Beverly-Lowell tallied an unearned run in the 10th.
"I love coming up here," Engle said. "I love playing at Vaccaro Field and at Toronto. The kids enjoy it. It is a great environment. The fields are pristine. The crowd is knowledgeable. They root for their team. They are respectable. I love playing up here. I would play more games here if I could."
Beverly-Lowell returns to its field at 10 a.m. Saturday in a doubleheader against St. Clairsville.
Toronto visits Richmond at 6 p.m. today.
"Richmond is always tough," Sninchak said. "Hopefully, we can keep playing like we have been playing when we go out there."

Parents prepare for BOE meeting
PARKERSBURG -The parents of a Parkersburg High School student placed in a "Bad Kid Fort" by a social studies teacher are making plans for a large turnout at next week's Wood County Board of Education meeting.
Beth Dean, whose son Caleb Richards was placed in a cardboard box with the words "Bad Kid Fort" written on it, plans to speak at the meeting. Dean and Jeff Richards, Caleb's father, have met with school officials about the incident but remain frustrated.
"My son is a not a singular case," Dean said. "There is case after case where kids are picked on, bullied or the student's individualized education program isn't being follow."
The meeting is 6:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Dean held a meeting Friday with concerned parents to organize before next week's meeting.
"I am going to speak and whoever else is interested," she said. "We are going to hit some key points that things are really, really broken. We want to get everyone together and focus our voices."
Board members are anticipating a larger-than-normal turnout. The meeting has been moved from the central office to the adjacent Jefferson Elementary Center auditorium.
Dean and Richards were able to get their son transferred to another history class, but she also is upset the involved teacher is back in the classroom.
"We are going to try to do something," she said. "I have heard nothing from anyone; (child protective services, the school, the school board.)"
Dean said everyone seems to think school officials are waiting to see what comes out of the board meeting.
"We are going to try to do something," she said.

I recently started back to work and have been pumping quite a bit (I work 12hr over nights and DD is @ day care during the day while I sleep). I have 27mm shields and I'm wondering if they might be too small. I read the nipple shouldnt rub the inside of the tunnel and mine does a little. Also, I start on the lowest setting and gradually work my way to the highest setting during my pumping session. I do experience discomfort @ the beginning I believe d/tmy nipples being sore. But I wait until the discomfort is gone b4 I increase the suction. My nipples are kinda purple :/ any advice would be much appreciated
This is the 3rd child I have used this pump with (Medela Lactina) and I haven't previously experienced problems with bruising, even on thr highest setting

The Toast of New York…
Congratulations to Brett Gardner, the new starting centerfielder for the New York Yankees!
J. Conrad William, Jr./Newsday via MCT
He's the Toast of the Town! The King of New York!
Brights Lights, Big City…
A VIP at the best restaurants and bars in Manhattan…
Broadway Shows, Fifth Avenue Shopping, and perhaps an appearance on the David Letterman Show…
He plays among the ghosts of Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle…
Life is grand!
BUT, if May or June finds Brett's batting average at .220, he'll be banished to…
Or perhaps even worse…
Or worse yet, Egads! (I hate to wish this upon any living soul)…
Traded to the Boston Red Sox!
Former Yankees president Lou Saban died Sunday at his home in North Myrtle Beach, SC. He was 87.
Saban is perhaps best known as the head coach of the NFL's Buffalo Bills, where he coached O.J. Simpson. Lou was also coach of the Bills when they won the 1964 and 1965 American Football League (AFL) Championships (the last two years prior to the start of the Super Bowl, which began in 1966). The AFL titles were the only championships in Bills history.
Saban was also the first head coach of the Boston Patriots, who began play in 1960 when the AFL was formed (thanks for that information, Julia!).
In 1955, George Steinbrenner served on Saban's coaching staff at Northwestern University (as receivers coach).
"He has been my friend and mentor for over 50 years, and one of the people who helped shape my life," Steinbrenner said in a statement. "Lou was tough and disciplined, and he earned all the respect and recognition that came his way. He spent a lifetime leading, teaching and inspiring, and took great satisfaction in making the lives around him better. This is a tremendous loss to me personally."
Saban worked for George Steinbrenner as Yankees president in 1981 and 1982.
I like this Saban quote: "You can get it done. You can get it done. What's more, ya GOTTA get it done!".
Saban was definitely one of a kind…

Scott – thanks, but our outfield is pretty full! You'll just have to keep Mr. Gardner in pinstripes!😉 And you're welcome on the information about Mr. Saban. It just shows once again what a small world the sports arena really is. I find it fascinating that his only non-football job appears to be with the Yankees. Like the picture you chose.
Have a great day!
Figured I come over and check to see how my OTHER Scotty is doing!;) Nice post! You better keep Gardner…Julia sounds serious about their outfield up in Boston. Sorry to hear about Mr. Saban. Man, you guys have had a lot of bad news this spring…
JULIA – The New York media is so funny at times. You'd think that Brett Gardner was coronated as the King. Yet, 30 days from now, he could be riding pine.
GINNY – I found the title of your Kazmir post to be so humorous, and of course, my comments didn't go unnoticed by Julia! LOL!
Have a great evening!
Nice tribute to Gardner. will we trade Melky or keep him on the bench?
shortporch http://shortporch.mlblogs.com/
Who's this Mickey Mangle guy, Scott?? LMMFAO
(I should laugh; I'M the guy who thought it was Jordin Zimmermann, and found out it's "with an 'a'…" instead.)
SHORTPORCH – I think if the right trade opportunity comes along, there's a good chance that Melky would be shipped out. Removing him from the roster would open up more opportunities for Nick Swisher. But if Brian Cashman doesn't find something he feels is of equal value, he'll hang on to Melky.
GARY – Sometimes the fingers just don't want to listen to what the head is trying to say! What's up with that? Thanks for the assist!
Can you read my post on my experience @ Fenway? I'm trying to see if other fans have had similar experinces with The Nation. Thanks
shortporch http://shortporch.mlblogs.com/
so where does Johnny Damon factor into all of this?? Right field?? Left field?? DH?? He's on my fantasy team! I need ABs!! Get back to me, please!
Julia's right. I'm sure Gardner would be banished to Kansas City or someplace like that. I doubt the BoSox would agree to a trade that might help out their enemy. Maybe if you got Theo Epstein drunk enough…So what's going to happen to Melky Cabrera now? Do you think the Yanks will trade him? It might be a good idea to hang onto him for a little while, in case Gardner doesn't work out or somebody gets injured or something. You can never have too much depth.-Erinhttp://plunking-gomez.mlblogs.com
I think Melky will be insurance for now. But the Yanks do have a glut of OF-ers, and somebody could be on his way out. But in the meantime, I'm excited for Gardner. I love watching him play.
I don't see how being traded to Boston is a bad thing.🙂 Also please sign my letter to Bud Selig!
Bob, http://bostonsports.mlblogs.com/archives/2009/03/baseball_bucks.html
Yes, the Promised Land is only one small step away from being sent back to the Wilderness. It's a tough world.
Scott – I don't need to pray to the Baseball gods for a Red Sox win over the Yankees in Sox-tober – that's a given!😉 lol!
Hmmm….wonder if Julia will be ticked if it's the Yankees and Rays in the ALCS this October….

Panel seeks more control of Suboxone
MONTPELIER Lawmakers are looking at ways to stem the black market flow of a drug that is prescribed to help addicts kick opiate habits.
Sen. Richard Sears, D-Bennington, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the state is spending $8.4 million a year through the Medicaid program to provide Suboxone, or buprenorphine, to Vermonters addicted to opiates.
The cost accounts for about 5.9 percent of the total annual medication costs for the state.
But the drug is finding its way into the illicit drug trade in Vermont and into the states prisons.
Whether its true or isnt true, theres certainly an impression with people that drugs are readily available in our corrections facilities, Sears said Tuesday during a committee hearing on the issue.
Aaron French, deputy commissioner for health services and managed care in the Department of Vermont Health Access, said state health officials are eager to find ways to prevent the overprescribing and diversion of Suboxone.
For example, he said the state is now requiring patients who receive the drug to have a set pharmacy. Any deviation from that pharmacy requires prior authorization. The state is also limiting the amount that can be prescribed in a 14-day period.
A skeptical Sears said more measures are needed. Somehow, our practices arent effective, he said.
French acknowledged that more could be done.
We could certainly put in tighter controls. Not off the top of my head would I suggest any, he said.
The Judiciary Committee is looking to add language to a bill addressing opiate addiction in Vermont that will help curb the diversion of Suboxone.
Included in the language will be a list of approved doctors who can prescribe the treatment drug. They would be required to enter prescription information into the states prescription drug database, and the provider list would be maintained by the Department of Health.
Doctors treating more than 10 opiate addicts would be required under the bill to provide a full range of treatments including counseling. Doctors would also have to monitor urine tests and check prescription packaging to ensure proper use.
Finally, the committee is seeking language directing the manufacturer, Reckitt Benckiser Pharmaceuticals, to improve its packaging of Suboxone to make it more tamper-proof. Andrew Maclean, a lobbyist representing the company, said it would be willing to work with the state on the problem.
Meanwhile, the Department of Corrections and the Vermont State Employees Association are working on improving procedures to prevent the drug from entering Vermont prisons illegally.
I think were working toward an agreement. We all have the same goal, were on the same page. We want to reduce as much as possible the flow of drugs into prison, said Dave Bellini, chairman of the VSEAs Corrections bargaining unit.
The union presented a range of ideas Tuesday to improve security at prisons, including random searches of temporary workers and visitors entering the secure portions of correctional facilities. The union also wants pre-employment drug screening and background checks.
According to Bellini, a criminal records check is currently done, but no further background screening is conducted for employment.
Additionally, Bellini said prisoners who test positive for drugs while in prison should lose their right to in-person visits.
Corrections Commissioner Andrew Pallito said he supported the VSEA proposals but that searches would have to extend to everyone entering the facility, including union staff. He said the department has three active investigations underway into contraband entering prisons, though he didnt indicate if the investigations involve state employees or temporary workers.
In the end the VSEA security proposals werent included in the language the Judiciary Committee is developing. Instead they will be added to a bill before the Government Operations Committee.
Sen. Joe Benning, R-Caledonia, said cutting off visits for inmates isnt likely to end the influx of drugs in Vermont prisons.
The solutions that Im listening to dont tell me thats going to happen, he said.

The snow that fell in some parts of our area this week has some people thinking ahead to the holiday season.
That includes people with the Salvation Army in La Crosse, who are operating a Christmas Headquarters across from Festival Foods on Copeland Avenue.
It's a central location for a number of programs, including the Angel Trees and Coats for Kids programs, which provides free coats to needy kids and families.
"They have no coats. They have nothing. Little children have no coats, no blankets. You know, why? I don't know, but it's just sad," said Jeff Hoch, volunteer coordinator with the Salvation Army.
The headquarters is open November 12-14. They are expecting to help as many as 3,000 families this year.

Crew Partners With Dutch Lions
The Columbus Dispatch - December 19, 2013 03:05 PM
The Crew has agreed on an affiliation with the Dayton Dutch Lions of the third-tier USL Pro.
With Major League Soccer mandating that its teams must either affiliate with another professional team or field their own club like teams in Germany and Spain, the Crew is now the sixth team to officially have such an affiliation.
"This affiliation with Dayton is an important step in developing our younger players. We believe it's beneficial for them to play competitive games at a high level, and this agreement accomplishes that goal for us," Crew coach and sporting director Gregg Berhalter said in a statement. "This move is specifically targeted toward players that we think have a bright future but won't necessarily see immediate playing time in MLS, or those players that need to recapture their best form. We're excited about this affiliation, we like the direction Dayton is heading as an organization and believe that this relationship will strengthen our squad."
As a result, the Crew must keep at least four players on the Dutch Lions' roster at all times. The Crew will not field a reserve-league team this season.
"Right now, the strategic path is to try and rotate away from our Reserve League such that all of our teams are either participating in the USL PRO through an affiliation or through a standalone team, hopefully by the end of 2015," MLS executive vice president of player relations & competition Todd Durbin told reporters prior to last season's all-star game.
The Crew and Dutch Lions have a checkered recent history against one another. Dayton eliminated the Crew from the 2012 U.S. Open Cup, and although the Crew returned the favor last season it lost midfielder Eddie Gaven to a season-ending knee injury. Gaven has since retired.
"We are proud to unveil our new partnership with Dayton Dutch Lions FC," Crew president Mark McCullers said. "We have known the Dutch Lions organization since they came to Ohio. This partnership creates a formal alliance that encompasses player development at its heart but also allows the Columbus Crew to partner with Dayton Dutch Lions FC in growing our respective fan bases and brands."

Two Laurier chemists receive prestigious Early Researcher Awards
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Aug 2/11| For Immediate Release
Abby Goodrum, Vice-President, Research
Kevin Crowley, Director, Communications & Public Affairs
WATERLOO Two chemistry professors in Wilfrid Laurier Universitys Faculty of Science have been awarded prestigious Early Researcher Awards from Ontarios Ministry of Research and Innovation.
Hind Al-Abadleh and Kenneth Maly have each been awarded up to $100,000 over a five-year term to facilitate their innovative research. In addition to the provinces funding, each professor will receive a $50,000 matching award from Laurier.
We are extremely pleased that Hind's and Ken's research is being recognized by the Ministry of Research and Innovation," said Abby Goodrum, Laurier's vice-president: research. They are two fine examples of the cutting-edge research taking place in Laurier's growing Faculty of Science.
The title of Al-Abadlehs research is Investigating the reactivity of engineered nanomaterials under industrial and atmospheric conditions through surface science, computational chemistry and mathematical modeling.
The energy sector faces challenges that include arsenic content in fuel, waste water, and particulates emitted from their activities, Al-Abadleh said.
Specifically, Al-Abadleh is investigating how nanomaterials containing oxides and hydroxides of iron, manganese and titanium react with arsenic.
Arsenic is one of the heavy metals that accumulate in fossil fuels such as coal and petroleum as a result of biogeochemical processes. The presence of arsenic in fuels damages the catalysts used in converting them to other useful chemicals. Activities such as mining, smelting, and petroleum refining also release arsenic into waste water.
One of the questions Al-Abadleh is trying to address is the efficiency of nanomaterials in arsenic removal from crude fuels and waste water. She is also concerned about the impact on the chemistry of the atmosphere brought about by nanomaterials released as fly ash through combustion.
Ken Malys research project is called "Synthesis and characterization of new self-assembled organic molecular materials from aromatic building blocks.
Im a synthetic organic chemist, which means I make molecules by connecting carbon atoms together, he said.
One of Malys research directions is making compounds that exhibit liquid crystalline phases a phase, in this case, being a state of matter, such as liquid, gas or solid.
Liquid crystals are in between solids and liquids, with properties of both, he said. They are fluid, like liquids, but their molecules are ordered. Using synthetic organic chemistry techniques, we can make changes to molecular structure and study how these structural changes will influence the liquid crystalline properties.
My ultimate goal is to make things that can be used in devices. Consider solar cells: They currently use incredibly pure silicon, which is expensive. Materials like liquid crystals may offer a more economical alternative. And at a more fundamental level, the research is helping us understand how matter can organize itself.

Vt. House rejects bid for F-35 debateApril 18,2013
Vt. House rejects
bids for jet debate
MONTPELIER The Vermont House has rejected attempts to debate the basing of the F-35 fighter jet in Burlington.
During debate Wednesday on a bill to retool the way the top officer in the Vermont National Guard is chosen, House Speaker Shap Smith ruled non-germane a series of amendments offered by Rep. George Cross that would have brought the F-35 issue into the debate.
In one instance, the Winooski Democrat asked for a vote of the House on whether to overrule the speaker. That move was defeated 126 to 11.
The underlying bill would set new standards candidates for the adjutant generals job would have to meet and create a new board to review applications and make recommendations to the Legislature.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep.

Star Chef Roland Schmid takes to the air
Holder of 17 Gault Millau points, Swiss chef Roland Schmid will delight our First and Business Class passengers with his sophisticated dishes in July and August.
On completing his chef's training, Schmid gained valuable experience working for some of the best chefs in the culinary world — including Germany's top chef Harald Wohlfahrt, holder of 3 Michelin stars.
Since then the 48 year old Schmid has firmly established himself as head chef of the gourmet restaurant 'Äbtestube' at the Grand Resort hotel Bad Ragaz in Switzerland. He is constantly developing new culinary formulas to tempt his customers' taste buds. According to Schmid, he gives preference to high-quality regional produce and to prime meat from animals reared humanely in preparing his exclusive dishes — and he recently won the title of 'Swiss Chef of the Year 2011'.
Our Business Class passengers can expect something special for their second meal: a Swiss 'Jause' or snack in the form of a little rucksack filled with traditional Swiss produce such as fresh fruit, meat balls with mustard, a thick slice of bread, cheese salad and a small bar of Toblerone.

Buzz ... Hey! Buzz ... Buzz ... Hear that? Buzz ... Buzz ... Buzz...
That's the "Gotta be involved with it! -- Rub it all over! -- Hey! Are you a player?" Linux buzzzzzzz. It's still around, although not nearly as loud as it was way back in early 2000, before the sky started falling and even high-tech businesses had to start making this weird thing called profit.
Early 2000 was also when rumors first appeared about the G.Mate YOPY: a powerful, color handheld device to be delivered with Linux straight out of the box -- no overwriting WinCE on this unit. First shown in February 2000 at the Hannover Expo (CeBIT) in Germany, it was hoped the product would be available for March of that year.
But, being the high-tech industry, that release date slipped. Derrick Story wrote a short piece about the device in May of 2000, at which time the YOPY was to be released to the public by mid-August. The specs were enough to drive geeks wild: 206-MHz StrongARM processor, 240 x 320 16-bit color display, 32 Mbytes of RAM, CDMA Compact Flash II expansion -- very sweet stuff.
As it turned out, even the very first beta testers had to wait until mid-July of 2000 to get developer units. The YOPY Development Kit remains the only model available today (June 15, 2001); the product intended for end-consumers is now expected in "the third or forth quarter" of 2001.
When Derrick asked me to have a look at the options for Linux on handheld devices earlier this year, the YOPY was of course on the top of my list of platforms to review. After a bit of work, a contact was established with the company and a developer unit was ordered. I could hardly wait!
G.Mate's order receiving and fulfillment are impressive; an example of e-commerce at its best. A secure form accepts your credit card number, and USD$590 later, a unit is on the way from Korea. "From Korea!" you say, "That must take forever!"
G.Mate uses TNT as the shipping company, and I received my unit two business days after ordering, spanning a weekend, delivered to Western Canada. The unit can be traced during shipping through TNT's web site until the last (in my case) 3,000 Km; TNT passes the unit off to a national courier for final delivery.
Be aware that in addition to the price of the unit and shipping, duty and taxes will likely be due to your own country's customs department, along with a brokerage fee to a clearinghouse. These will appear on a separate bill which may appear with the package, possibly causing a delay in receiving the unit, or may show up some time later.
The developer's version of the YOPY is almost exactly the same size as a Compaq iPAQ in width and height, but about one and a half times as thick and as heavy. Unlike the iPAQ's curved edges, however, the YOPY has a general square boxy shape. The YOPY case is two-tone, with a off-white front and light-brown back. The buttons are all silver in color, while two switches on the unit are black.
The display size is a tiny bit larger on the YOPY than the iPAQ, although not enough that you could tell without side-by-side comparisons. The YOPY's display, able to show 65,536 colors, has an advantage over the iPAQ's display, limited to 4,096 colors. This allows the YOPY to display continuous-tone images (like photographs of people) without having to dither.
At the top-back of the YOPY is Compact Flash Type II expansion slot -- you can slide in a memory or microdrive device, and use it to expand the abilities of the YOPY. G.Mate has recently released a USD$70 camera module which slips into the slot as well.
Beyond that, it's a pretty standard handheld device -- four directional buttons and two action buttons plus power on the front of the unit, four buttons and a jog switch on the left, along with the infrared port. On the right is the audio in/out jack and a "hold" switch. On the very top is the click-in/click-out stylus holder, and on the bottom is power and RS232 port.
The YOPY is powered by a 1400mA rechargeable lithium-ion battery when being used in the field, or by an AC-line power supply when in its cradle. The YOPY can be configured to remain on continuously when external power is available. This is very handy when networking with the device.
More Linux...
O'Reilly Network's Linux DevCenter features lots of terrific Linux content, including our Top 5 Linux Articles
The developer's version of the YOPY ships with a 2.2.14 version of the Linux kernel (for ARM processors), and a full boot takes less than 25 seconds. During the boot process the screen remains black -- but finally you're greeted with a deep orange "Linupy" splash screen, and then a GUI panel asking you to set the current date and time.
Once fully booted and the time is set, the screen returns to the Linupy logo but with a menu and display bar along the bottom of the screen. A red "up arrow" brings up a icon list of available applications, detailed below. Note that the arrow doesn't bring up a menu, but rather an application that lists and launches other applications.
Next over on the bar is a keyboard (or a pencil) icon, which brings up the virtual keyboard or handwriting-recognition writing area, as appropriate. Immediately to the right of that is a pop-up menu which lets you choose which input method to use. On the lower right of the screen is a display showing current time, battery power, and, if the unit is powered externally, a small power-plug symbol.
The applications included with the YOPY are limited in number, but show some of the possibilities with a color PDA device. There's a contacts app, task manager and scheduler, but no Notepad app (although you can attach notes to the records of the applications). There's also a little drawing program called Painter, an MP3 player, and a (limited) Web browser. A dialer and other configuration apps are also included.

The Agenda VR3: Real Linux in a PDA
There are many things to talk about here, but the question I'm interested in is: What do the developers out there think about the path YOPY has taken with its Linux installation, and how much interest is there in developing applications for the YOPY?
Overall, the included applications are snappy as they run and paint the screen, and have interesting ways of displaying information on the small screen size. The scheduler, for example, in the Month view, displays the hours currently scheduled graphically for each day, using two circles each divided into 12 sections -- clever, and very useful.
However, once I actually tried to use the applications for personal information management (PIM) functions, I discovered that there were many bugs with the individual applications and the window/app management itself. For example, while you can always launch a new application, there's no way to switch between running apps. The scheduler also never gives an alert about an upcoming event.
"No problem," I thought. "The code should be available -- there must be people working on fixing this." That's when I asked my contact at G.Mate some questions about YOPY development efforts, the independent developer community, and how G.Mate planned to differentiate the YOPY from the iPAQ. I really didn't like the answer: "I am sorry that I cannot answer your questions ..."
Sigh ...
G.Mate made an early decision to use a windowing system called "W Windows" instead of the more common X Window System provided by almost all Unix workstations. X also runs on the Agenda VR3, and the Handheld.org and Familiar distributions for the iPAQ.
W Windows was forked from an effort to make a lightweight windowing system for monochrome displays, with G.Mate adding the ability to handle color. This was done by programmers within G.Mate, as was the development of the W-based GUI applications.
Because of the incompatibility between W and X, not to mention the inability to import and export displays to W, the porting of applications has been significantly hindered. Despite complaints by developers on the Yopydeveloper.org mailing list, G.Mate stuck by its decision, arguing it provided faster displays and a commitment to other commercial parties to provide the W environment. [Note: See the update at the end of this article].
Fortunately for the developer community, Young Hoon Kim, a G.Mate programmer, ported X to the YOPY and made it available "unofficially." Finally, giving up trying to hold back water, G.Mate agreed an X environment would become the new base installation for the YOPY, dumping W Windows. In addition, a 2.4.x kernel would be made available, largely based on the work done by the Handhelds.org group.
This shift in direction demonstrates (again) that introducing an incompatible technology without strong justification just won't work. Particularly amongst open/free programmers, no one is willing to invest in your new technology unless its worth their time. While W may be faster than X on a 206-MHz machine, is it worth the loss of compatibility? Empirically, NO!
The other aspect of the new direction of the YOPY is it enviably leads to a direct comparison between the YOPY and the iPAQ. After all, they're effectively running the same software, and they both have the same processor -- a StrongARM running at 206 MHz with 32 Mbytes of RAM and 16 Mbytes of Flash memory. Although new 64K models of the iPAQ are just becoming available.
As mentioned above, the YOPY can display 16-bit color, while the iPAQ is limited to 12-bit. The YOPY also has the advantage of its single CF-II expansion port being built in; the iPAQ requires an expansion sleeve to be used to expose either one or two CF or PCMCIA ports.
On the downside, of course, is the same expansion ability -- the iPAQ can do PCMCIA as well as CF, and can handle one or two of the devices. Even with the required expansion devices, the iPAQ is still smaller (less thick) and lighter than the YOPY.
The last advantage the iPAQ has, of course, is the fact it's available on retail shelves today, while the YOPY must be mail-ordered from Korea. Ironically, the iPAQ also works out to be less expensive than the YOPY, particularly before recent YOPY price reductions.
Bear in mind we're comparing developer versions of the YOPY to the retail iPAQs. Hopefully the size and weight issues will be addressed by the time consumer versions become available.
A question I asked G.Mate, and all the other companies I contacted for this series, was "Where does your independent developer community communicate? Where does the software they create get cataloged?"
The answer for the YOPY is Yopydeveloper.org, hosted by G.Mate, providing documentation for the unit and a mailing list for independent developers with a web-based archive. There are also some web-based bulletin boards. Software isn't cataloged, but is generally announced on both.
As far as activity is concerned, simply subscribing to both the YOPY list and the iPAQ or Familiar developer lists from Handhelds.org will speak volumes. The YOPY list has seen about a dozen messages a week lately, while the iPAQ lists see a dozen or more a day.
When I started this project, I was hoping I would have wonderfully exciting news to report about all three Linux platforms -- the YOPY, the iPAQ, and the Agenda. Oh, well, two out of three still isn't bad.
If the YOPY had been released to the public in March of 2000, I suspect it would have by now been a serious contender. Promoted as the "first Linux handheld," the YOPY had such promise.
Alas, we still wait for a final model. Meanwhile, competitors already have product "on the street" -- iPAQ for very similar hardware or the Agenda VR3 for much lower-end hardware but true "Linux out of the box."
I really hope I'm proven wrong, but I cannot see any way that the YOPY will become a commercial success at this point, at least in North America. There is still a chance G.Mate may attract a critical mass of independent developers to make its platform fly. But I just don't see it.
The Familiar distribution and the iPAQ is the most promising configuration for StrongARM-based platforms. Until G.Mate can tell me -- and every other developer making the decision -- exactly what makes the YOPY better, developers will naturally go to where the action is.
The following list is all I could find as far as sites providing YOPY developer information and exchange. No user-oriented sites exist, as expected for a developer-only product.
At the last minute, Young Hoon Kim agreed to answer my questions: The W Windows applications are in fact being dropped entirely, with new applications being developed as replacements. There are 20 engineers and programmers working on the YOPY project, and the current release date for retail product is October of this year.
There are no plans to make Pocket Linux work on the YOPY, although both the Handhelds.org and Familiar (only the latter really matters now) distributions will work with the YOPY, in addition to G.Mate's own distribution. In response to how G.Mate will differentiate the YOPY from other players in the Linux market, Mr. Hoon replied "We will make this device much like PC for performance and look."
Thanks to Mr. Hoon for replying to my final inquiry. I sincerely wish him and G.Mate well in their continued efforts in bringing the YOPY to market.

Woman killed in multi-car crash on Route 17 in Woodbury
May 29, 2012 —
On May 27, 2012, the New York State Police in Monroe investigated a fatal motor vehicle accident involving four vehicles on State Route 17 in the town of Woodbury. The preliminary investigation revealed that a 2000 Volkwagon Jetta operated by Jerome Stewart, 33, of Newark, NJ, was traveling south on State Route 17 when he came upon two vehicles stopped in the southbound left lane waiting to turn left into the Harriman Train Station. Stewart struck the rear of a 2005 Toyota operated by Jaznel Stewart, 21, (no relation to Jerome Stewart) of Newburgh, NY, who was stopped behind and subsequently struck a 2002 Saturn operated by Samantha Straub, 21, of Newburgh, NY.
The vehicle operated by Jerome Stewart then veered into the north bound lane of traffic, where it struck head on a 2000 Chrysler Van operated by Paul Force, 74, of Woodlake Park, NJ.
Force was traveling with his wife Sarah, who was the front seat passenger. Sarah Force, 66, was extricated from the vehicle by the Fire Department and treated at the scene by EMS. Sarah was then transported to Good Samaritan Hospital in Suffern, NY where she succumbed to her injuries.
Jerome Stewart and his passengers Valma Thompson, 55, and Eunic Thompson, 62, were transported to the Orange Regional Medical Center for non-life threatening injuries. All persons involved were wearing seatbelts at the time of the accident.
State Route 17 was closed for over four hours while the accident was investigated. The emergency services that responded and assisted at the scene were as follows: Town of Tuxedo PD, Town of Woodbury Volunteer Fire Department, Tuxedo Volunteer Fire Department, Town of Woodbury Volunteer Ambulance, and Mobil Life EMS. The investigation is continuing at this time.

When you hear a cat lover talk about "the Brit" you see in your mind's eye a plush-coated, shorthair cat in a wide variety of colors. Okay, guess what? There's also a LONGHAIR Brit!
The British Longhair has the same characteristics of the British Shorthair but its dense coat stands out from the body emphasizing the cat's imposing lines. In most colors, large, round eyes ranging from deep gold through copper are set into the smiling face. In pointed cats the eyes are blue while deep green eyes shine in the silvers. The classic Blue remains the most popular color however the breed comes in a rainbow of colors. Their round heads have short noses, chubby cheeks and prominent, rounded whisker pads creating an enigmatic smiling look to the face. The British Longhair's round eyes are wide open and, combined with the smile, give the cat an amused air.
"British Longhairs are friendly and affectionate, making loyal and devoted companions," said Vickie Fisher, President of TICA. "If you're on the sofa, they'll be snuggled up beside you. But don't' think they're just lap cats! They have a little bit of the clown in them too, playing with toys when they feel like it."
The British Longhair's wonderful disposition makes them great family pets. One of the oldest breeds of English cats, the British Longhair was once a hunter and protector of the barns. Today it embraces family life, preferring to snooze in comfort by the fire and to exchange hunting for playing with toy mice. It is a dignified, affectionate cat, sometimes referred to as the Winston Churchill of the cat world, roaming its household dominion with all four feet on the floor.
TICA recognized the British Longhair earlier this year as an approved breed that can compete for championship titles.
Long Live the…..British Longhair!

Pseudo Hurler Polydystrophy
National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc.
It is possible that the main title of the report Pseudo Hurler Polydystrophy is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
General Discussion
Pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy (mucolipidosis type III) is a rare genetic metabolic disorder characterized by a defective enzyme known as UPD-N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase. This defective enzyme ultimately results in the accumulation of certain complex carbohydrates (mucopolysaccharides) and fatty substances (mucolipids) in various tissues of the body. The symptoms of this disorder are similar, but less severe than those of I-cell disease (mucolipidosis type II) and may include progressive joint stiffness, curvature of the spine (scoliosis), and/or skeletal deformities of the hands (e.g., claw-hands). Growth delays accompanied by deterioration of the hip joints typically develop in children with pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy. Additional symptoms may include clouding of the corneas of the eyes, mild to moderate coarseness of facial features, mild mental retardation, easy fatigability, and/or heart disease. Pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait.
This disorder belongs to a group of diseases known as lysosomal storage disorders. Lysosomes are particles bound in membranes within cells that break down certain fats and carbohydrates. Defective lysosomal enzymes associated with pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy leads to the accumulation of certain fatty substances (mucolipids) and certain complex carbohydrates (mucopolysaccharides) within the cells of many tissues of the body.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), in cooperation with Midwest Folding Products, of Chicago, Ill., is announcing a voluntary recall of about 5,300 stage and riser caddies due to risk of injury and death to consumers. The caddy's latches do not automatically close to secure the stages and risers when stored. Unsecured stages and risers can fall off the caddies and onto consumers.
A 3-year-old girl died in May 2011 in Greenville, S.C., from severe head trauma when a portion of a portable stage fell out of the caddy and onto her at a church.
This recall involves Midwest Folding Products' caddies used to store collapsible stages and risers when they are not being used. The caddies are brown, gray or black metal and measure 44 inches long by 30 inches wide by 60 inches high. They hold six 96-inch long or eight 48 to 72-inch long stage or riser platforms.
Yellow caution and instruction labels are located on the caddy's frame.
The recalled caddies were sold by Midwest Folding Products' dealers to churches, schools, performing arts centers and various other organizations nationwide and online at www.midwestfolding.com from January 1989 through March 2012 for about $1,200. Midwest Folding Products is directly contacting known purchasers of the caddies.
Caddy owners and consumers should immediately stop using the recalled stage and riser caddies. Caddy owners should contact Midwest Folding Products to receive a free repair kit with new brackets that will allow latches to automatically return to the closed position on the caddies and new white warning and instruction labels.
For more information, contact Midwest Folding Products at (800) 621-4716 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT, or visit the firm's website at www.midwestfolding.com.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury or death associated with the use of
thousands of types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product incidents cost the
nation more than $1 trillion annually. CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical or
mechanical hazard. CPSC's work to help ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household
chemicals -– contributed to a decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 40 years.

WASHINGTON — "At Last" may have been just what President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle were thinking Tuesday night as they glided through their first inaugural dance to the Etta James classic.
The Obamas were the star attraction at the 10 inaugural celebrations they attended into the early hours of Wednesday. The celebrations marked the end of a long day of formal inaugural events and the two-year campaign that put them in the White House.
The president pulled his wife close and they danced a slow, dignified two-step while, offstage, Beyonce sang. The president spun first lady Michelle Obama once in a half-turn.
Obama cut loose in a faster groove a few minutes later, as Shakira, Mary J. Blige, Faith Hill and Mariah Carey sang along with Stevie Wonder to his "Signed, Sealed, Delivered." The song was played at nearly all of Obama's rallies throughout the campaign.
"You could tell that's a black president from the way he was moving," comedian Jamie Foxx joked following the dance.
The president wore white tie, while Michelle shimmered in a white, one-shouldered, floor-length gown. It was embellished from top to bottom with white floral details and made by 26-year-old New York designer Jason Wu.
"First of all, how good looking is my wife?" Obama asked the crowd of celebrities and supporters.
Dancing their way through the balls
At the Obama Home States ball, the president pulled the first lady much closer than he did on their first dance. At one point, he wrapped both arms around her waist and locked his fingers together at the small of her back.
"Hello, everybody. Aloha. What's going on?" Obama said in the dialects of the Hawaii and Illinois contingents, saying they reflected his roots. "So many of you got involved not just in our campaign but in our lives."
Obama and Vice President Joe Biden each saluted the nation's military men and women at the Commander in Chief Ball via satellite. Biden said he wasn't looking forward to his moment in the spotlight — the dancing, that is.
"The thing that frightens me the most (is) I'm going to have to stand in that circle and dance in a minute." At that, he laughed and did a quick sign of the cross.

The Obamas were more enthusiastic, splitting up to dance with Marine Sgt. Elidio Guillen of Madera, Calif. — who was shorter than dance partner Michelle — and Army Sgt. Margaret H. Herrera of San Antonio, Texas, who cried in the president's arms.
Despite the formal attire and celebrity entertainment, balls aren't overly fancy affairs. Lines often are long to get in, go to the bathroom or check your coat, and the food is heavy on vegetables with dip and cheese cubes.
In a sign, perhaps, of the tough economic times, guests who already paid anywhere from $75 for a ticket to thousands more for a package deal had to buy their own drinks served in small plastic cups. Beer went for $6, cocktails for $9 and champagne for $12.
People were standing in line outside Union Station to get into the Eastern States Ball an hour and a half after it started. Because of very limited seating at the Western ball, a number of attendees in long gowns and fancy dress plopped cross-legged on the floor.
"This is what happens in a down economy. No chairs, no highboys — it's the floor and plastic cups," commented ballgoer Brig Lawson, 38, of Las Vegas.
'He's had a long day'
Director Ron Howard said he sympathized with the long day Obama was having.
"I feel bad for him," Howard said in an interview with The Associated Press at the Western Ball. "He's had a long day and now he has to do seven dances. This has got to be the grueling part for the first family."
At the Obama Home States ball, the dance floor was dominated by two little girls who skipped and twirled in matching red dresses while the grown-ups stood still, crowded around the stage waiting for Obama to appear.
Singer Sheryl Crow, doing a sound check for the Midwestern Ball, said she was homesick.
"I have not seen my child in four days. I'm miserable," she told her band between songs.
But there was still plenty of fun to be had at the official balls and dozens of other parties around Washington.
Crow was greeted by a cheering crowd later for her appropriate hit, "A Change Would Do You Good." When hip-hop star Wyclef Jean asked the men at the Mid-Atlantic Ball to pull off their tuxedo jackets and swing them in the air to show their support for Barack Obama, thousands did.
At the Youth Ball, Kid Rock belted out songs as well-dressed 20-somethings mingled about. One of them walked up to a bartender, gave him a high five and said, "Barack Obama is president!"
The Obamas, following Kid Rock and Kanye West, got the real rock-star reception and launched into something of an awkward dance, laughing as they swayed. When they were done, the president grabbed a mic and said, "That's what's called old school."
At the Midwestern Ball, he joked that it was time to "dance with the one who brung me, who does everything that I do except backwards and in heels."
And though the mood was celebratory, the reality that the country remains at war hung over the festivities at the Commander in Chief ball and a separate Heroes Red White & Blue Ball.
"Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers today, every day, forever," Obama told troops at the Commander in Chief ball. "Tonight, we celebrate. Tomorrow, the work begins. ... Together, I am confident we will write the next great chapter in America's story."

Starting a business usually involves committing personal finances, no more so than at the beginning, when banks are loathe to extend credit.
To maximize the amount of financing you can raise, you can either marshal tangible evidence of growth and success or demonstrate your company's potential.
As your business grows, plan a method for recruiting and hiring the very best people you can find. It will be important to hire the right top managers and let these managers recruit and hire the staff.
Some people are born rich, but it is the self-made billionaires who inspire people more than anybody else. While most entrepreneurs won't end up in the 10-digit club, there are lessons to be taken from these elites.
Most people are motivated more by the work they do and the environment in which they work than by the money they earn. Therefore, the compensation and reward systems you offer to employees should include both monetary and non-monetary ideas.
Caroline Mak and her boyfriend Antonio Ramos loved the taste of ginger, but didn't like the sugary-sweet taste of ginger ales and ginger beers on the market. They weren't spicy enough, nor were they adequately tangy.

More and more successful companies are taking a holistic approach to serve specific market niches or verticals. Instead of offering a broad-based horizontal solution that may service a larger market, but require more customization and will likely involve competition from larger players, these companies are finding success 'below the radar' by staying focused on a narrower segment.
When you get out there thinking you're the most important member of the team, you're headed for failure, says Wally Amos.
