BOONE, N.C. — Appalachian State University baseball achieved its highest national ranking in program history on Monday when the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) tabbed the Mountaineers 27th in its latest NCAA Division I top-30 poll.
Since joining NCAA Division I in 1972, Appalachian's highest previous ranking had been No. 29, which it achieved twice in Collegiate Baseball Newspaper's top-30 poll — at the conclusion of the 1984 regular season and again three weeks ago.
This week also marks the first time in program history that ASU is ranked in multiple major college baseball polls. In addition to jumping three spots from No. 30 to No. 27 in this week's NCBWA poll, Appalachian also reentered this week's Collegiate Baseball poll at No. 30. Additionally, the Mountaineers fell just shy of entering the USA Today/ESPN coaches' top-25 poll for the first time, coming in fourth in the "others receiving votes" grouping (29th overall), and climbed six places from No. 33 to No. 27 in this week's Perfect Game top-50 rankings.
In rankings dedicated solely to mid-major baseball programs, Appalachian comes in at No. 4 in this week's College Baseball Lineup mid-major top 10 and No. 7 in College Baseball Daily's mid-major top 25.
The first-place Mountaineers are the highest-ranked Southern Conference club in any of this week's national polls. This week's ascent comes on the heels of ASU taking 2-of-3 games from second-place College of Charleston (22-11, 12-6 SoCon) this past weekend.
Appalachian (24-6, 9-3 SoCon) begins a challenging four-game road trip on Tuesday with a 6 p.m. contest at Gardner-Webb (17-14). Following Tuesday's non-conference duel at GWU, the Mountaineers face another perennial SoCon power this weekend when they travel to Statesboro, Ga. for a three-game series versus Georgia Southern (18-15, 8-7 SoCon).
ASU Fr. RHP Jamie Nunn (3-0, 1.64 ERA) vs. GWU So. RHP Andrew Barnett (1-3, 5.20 ERA)
Appalachian puts its highest-ever national ranking on the line for the first time on Tuesday with a 6 p.m. contest at in-state rival Gardner-Webb.
After a fast start, Gardner-Webb has lost eight of its last 11 games to fall to 17-16 on the season. However, the Bulldogs snapped a four-game skid with an 7-3 triumph over Big South power Coastal Carolina on Sunday.
The campaign has been a wildly inconsistent one for GWU, which boasts impressive wins over North Carolina, Liberty, USC Upstate and CCU but has also suffered home losses at the hands of non-Division I foes Mars Hill and Brevard.
The Mountaineers, whose only mid-week loss of the season came at the hands of then-No. 3 South Carolina on March 14, have won six of their last seven meetings with Gardner-Webb, including four in a row in Boiling Springs. ASU owns a 21-14 advantage in the all-time series, which dates back to 1977.
Appalachian will send freshman Jamie Nunn to the mound for his fourth-career start. The rookie right-hander has taken control of the mid-week starter's role on ASU's staff by going 3-0 with a 1.64 ERA and .184 opponents' batting average in his first eight collegiate appearances. Rainouts have limited him to just two starts in the last month but in those starts (March 13 at Duke and March 27 versus North Carolina A&T), he has gone 2-0 without surrendering any earned runs over 11 innings.
Offensively, the Mountaineers' biggest storyline is junior shortstop Will Callaway, who brings a 21-game hitting streak into the mid-week duel. Callaway is hitting a gaudy .446 (37-for-83) over the course the 21-game streak, which is just six games shy of the school record of 27, set by Rand Smith in 2009. In addition to hitting safely in 21-straight games, Callaway has also reached base in 25-consecutive contests.

I don't work outside the home, so I check several times a day. First time is with my morning coffee, last time, usually, after supper.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I don't work outside the home, so I check several times a day. First time is with my morning coffee, last time, usually, after supper.
I also don't work outside the home. I check these boards TOO many time.
When it seems like the world is falling to pieces remember that the pieces are falling into place. We are nearing closer to the End Times.
I'm a constant board watcher. It's generally up all day every day. I stop by whenever and click "what's new".
Me too. I'm interested in what is going on, so I'm on here several hours a day.
i guess you all know that i'm here off and on all day. i do take time off to sleep
Nancy in western NY
before you speak THINK
T is it True? H is it Helpful? I is it Inspiring? N is it Necessary? K is it Kind?
Twice - mornings and evenings
im interested in all sorts of quilting stuff, so I ck about 5 times a day. if a swap im in is very active, ill ck more. its fun to see what others are up to, great inspiration.
All depends on the day. If I work (12 hr days), then only in the morning. I'm usually exhausted by the time I get home. If I don't work, then I check the board way too many times to mention. I absolutely LOVE it though! Great place to get ideas and support when needed.
Go forth and sew!
I am on a work furlough; that's what my boss calls it; right now for the next three weeks so I am checking in all day and working on a lot of UFOs.
no act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. Aesop
I check in a few times a day. And I work a full-time job. So if my boss asks, you never saw me!
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow. Do good anyway.

I have a vision, now I need to see if people think it's feasible.
Here's how I came about to this point. I was thinking about building an observation hive, sometime in the distant future, to go in a store that doesn't exist yet. While I do like the frame ob hives, I thought, "Wouldn't it be a great showpiece to have a large, natural hive." We've all seen the pics of 5' hanging combs in neat stacks in open, feral colonies. Some of them being so large that they must have been thriving there for years. My idea is to get that type structure under glass.
Hence, I come to this forum. I'm hoping that a TBH type set-up would work to get them started, Essentially building a large (24-30" square or rectangular,) glass walled box, from counter-height to ceiling, with starter strips on the top end.
Any thoughts on where this can all go horribly wrong? I'm going to need to rely on the girls building lots of comb straight down. The whole thing will need to be accessible and removable, of course. As I'm a mechanical designer by trade, I always have ACAD running and I usually doodle designs of things, so before I started playing with creating a design layout, I thought I'd get some input.

Audience Plunges 21%: Q2 Beats, Q3 View Well Below Consensus
Shares of audio-processing chip maker Audience (ADNC) are down $2.61, or 21%, at $9.98, in late trading, after the company this afternoon reported revenue and earnings per share that topped analysts' estimates, but offered a Q3 view well below consensus, including a surprise loss where the Street has been modeling a profit, citing a slowdown in sales of the most expensive smartphones.
Revenue in the three months ended in June rose 36%, year over year, to $45.3 million, yielding EPS of 24 cents.
Analysts had been modeling $44.6 million and 17 cents.
For the current quarter, the company sees revenue in a range of $31 million to $34 million, and a net loss in a range of 9 cents to 13 cents. That compares to the consensus for $45.2 million and profit per share of 16 cents.
On a GAAP basis, the company projects a net loss of 16 cents to 20 cents.
CEO Kevin Palatnik said the company had "executed well" in the quarter. But he warned that "with near-term expected softness in the high end of the smartphone market, we will continue to carefully manage our business."

2005 Violent Video Games Row - The Political Solutions
GTAGaming.com - General News | @ 04:01 AM MDT | By Neil
With the increasing media coverage of M-Rated video games and their alleged links to crimes of murder, theft and sexual assault, US politicians have decided it's their turn to try to do something to curb the problem. Arkansas Senator Shawn Womack introduced a bill, which could see M-Rated games having a legal requirement of being displayed on shelves at least five feet from the floor in the state. Penalties are minimal, with offenders receiving a $500 fine straight from the Arkansas Department of Health.
The second piece of legislature is a bill that would see video games companies held responsible if an act of violence is caused by a minor playing an M-Rated video game which they developed.
"A person may maintain an action for personal injury or wrongful death against a manufacturer or retailer of violent video or computer games if the manufacturer or retailer has distributed, sold, or rented a violent video or computer game to a person under the age of seventeen and the game was a factor in creating conditions that assisted or encouraged the person to cause injury or death to another person."
-- House Bill 2178
However, this bill appears only to be moving the blame from the person who commits the crime in the first place. If this bill were introduced, Courts must take into account that whether or not a videogame influenced it, a crime has been commited and sentencing should be made appropriately. In my opinion, the blame is in the wrong place. The video games companies do not give anyone the means to commit a violent act - the relatively free availability of firearms in the United States contributes to this greatly. Until gun laws are tightened in the country, the unfortunate trend may be towards further acts of violence and wrongful blame against games companies, who have a right to express theirselves in any way they wish.

I agree.
The phrase "be careful of what you wish for...." appears to elude some.
I'm not going to hate on a player that was an instrumental fixture in the team's recent triumphs. His off-field nonsense was annoying, sure, but it's what happens on the field that counts.

Tutorials - Big bits of code to help you do more
Using Short Codes to embed a YouTube videoTweet
28 April 2010 | | | Supports v2.4
SilverStripe 2.4 has introduced shortcodes to the CMS editor. Simply, the CMS user can now add short BBCode style code to the editor area and it can then be replaced using a predefined function. For example [link id=23] could be replaced by the link to Page with an ID of 23. In fact that is exactly how internal links created in the links sidebar work in 2.4, preventing them from breaking when URLs change.
The aim of this tutorial
The aim of this tutorial is to allow the CMS user to enter the short code:
[YouTube id=3UTu6lV8ppY]
[YouTube id=3UTu6lV8ppY]A video about SilverStripe[/YouTube]
we will also allow them to add more custom attributes. We will then use this to embed a YouTube video automatically for the user.
Short code structure
Shortcodes are made up of three parts, the actual ShortCode (YouTube) its arguments (id) and its content (the text surrounded buy the tags - 'A video about SilverStripe').
The Short Code Parser
The first thing we need to do is to set-up our parser function that will handle the tag, its arguments and its content.
In Page.php we need to add our handler:
class Page extends SiteTree { ... public static function YouTubeShortCodeHandler($arguments,$caption= null,$parser = null) { } ... }
$arguments will be an associative array and $content will be a string.
We now need to set-up some default values for the YouTube video we are going to embed, such as size, height and quality. We need to also merge the defaults with the passed arguments and then return the embed code using a template that we will create next.
public static function YouTubeShortCodeHandler($arguments,$caption = null,$parser = null) { // first things first, if we dont have a video ID, then we don't need to // go any further if (empty($arguments['id'])) { return; } $customise = array(); /*** SET DEFAULTS ***/ $customise['YouTubeID'] = $arguments['id']; //play the video on page load $customise['autoplay'] = false; //set the caption $customise['caption'] = $caption ? Convert::raw2xml($caption) : false; //set dimensions $customise['width'] = 640; $customise['height'] = 385; //overide the defaults with the arguments supplied $customise = array_merge($customise,$arguments); //get our YouTube template $template = new SSViewer('YouTube'); //return the customised template return $template->process(new ArrayData($customise)); }
It is worth noting that the keys of the $arguments array will always be in lowercase.
The Template
In your themes folder you can now add a template called YouTube.ss; I have it in themes/mytheme/Includes as this means I can also use it hard coded into my other page templates if I need to.

 <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/$YouTubeID<% if autoplay %>&autoplay=1<% end_if %>" width="$width" height="$height"> <embed name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/$YouTubeID<% if autoplay %>&autoplay=1<% end_if %>" /> </object>
$VideoCaption

This is XHTML valid YouTube embedding code which uses our custom parameters.
Registering the Parser
Finally, we need to register the parser in our _config.php file:
... //shorcodes ShortcodeParser::get()->register('YouTube',array('Page','YouTubeShortCodeHandler'));
That is it, we have now created our Short Code handler and when a CMS user wants to embed a video from YouTube, they can with ease.
Example usage
[YouTube id=4af1bFh3duo width=300 height=150 related=0]blah[/YouTube]
17/10/2010 9:17am (7 years ago)
I did everything you have instructed but I am unable to make it work, it still shows this on the page:
[Youtube id=5qF_qbaWt3Q]Waiting for the End[/YouTube]
I use v2.4.2
I edited mysite/code/page.php and mysite/_config.php
I created the YouTube.ss based on the template code you have shown under includes as well
21/10/2010 11:33am (7 years ago)
The capitalization of the "T" actually made it recognizable but another problem arose, it now says "Movie not Loaded".
You can check it here:
But thanks for the great tutorial nonetheless. :)
21/10/2010 12:31pm (7 years ago)
Got it to work, there was a problem with the template file.
There is no closing quotation mark for the data parameter after the <% end_if %>. Also shown in the code snippet above.
Thanks for the great tut!
02/01/2011 5:10pm (6 years ago)
If you need to display Page variables you can go with Controller::curr()
Rick Harvey
12/01/2011 9:10am (6 years ago)
Nice Tutorial!
It might be worth noting that the shortcode handler can be any callable function (i.e. not necessarily in Page.php). For example...
* YouTubeHelper.php:
class YouTubeHelper {
public function YouTubeShortCodeHandler($arguments,$caption = null,$parser = null) {
* _config.php:
BTW - don't forget to rebuild (site/dev/build?flush=1)... :-)
01/02/2011 2:31am (6 years ago)
great article. has any one had any success pulling up a custom form with this method, I almost had it I thought with the comment above's idea
return Controller::curr()->MyForm()
but that didn't work. and ideas?
03/02/2011 4:53am (6 years ago)
You mention you put it in the include folder so that your can hard code it into other templates. So how can you do this?
Thanks for the tutorial
06/02/2011 10:39pm (6 years ago)
Yeah but if you do it that way, how do you set the youtube id, height and width etc
18/02/2011 4:42pm (6 years ago)
next time I should check out your site first before starting to implement new features. I was looking for something similar to chunks or snippets in ModX and basically SS short code is exactly what I was after :-)
Thanks again, you made my day.
04/03/2011 12:10am (6 years ago)
Hi, thanks for this tutorial, it seems that it will allow our clients to paste iframes.
I have implemented it all however I still get nothing showing.
Would you be able to confirm the short code parser code? You have the first code that contains $content and then the second code with $caption and it is much longer. Which code do I use? Do I replace the $content with $caption and use the 2nd code only?
Thanks heaps.
23/03/2011 12:09pm (6 years ago)
thanks for this. couldn't find any documentation on shortcode parsing in the official docs, so you're filling a noticeable gap here.
29/03/2011 10:57am (6 years ago)
Cheers Mr. Hensby... I'm implementing this now...
29/03/2011 2:18pm (6 years ago)
Hi Daniel. Excellent stuff!
Minor bug fix:
if (!$arguments['id'])
yields this : Undefined index: id
it should really be
if (!array_key_exists('id', $arguments)
I'm sure it would be rare, but it bit me when I typed id in wrong so may bite the client! : - )
thanks for this... I've built one for Vimeo too now
09/04/2011 11:14am (6 years ago)
Great post, Dan - very useful.
Got me thinking about a shortcode button on the editor for inserting custom shortcodes... like this http://bit.ly/eEvtcx
Anyone up for posting a tut on how to do that? ;)
11/05/2011 11:46am (6 years ago)
Can you please help me to create a shortcode like this
[youtube NRzesnIuSS0]
Anyone please help me
08/06/2011 1:59pm (6 years ago)
It was indeed a great trick.
08/07/2011 2:15pm (6 years ago)
How can this be enabled in the blog module?
08/07/2011 4:30pm (6 years ago)
hmm. It works on pages, but not in blogentries, it shows only the [text].
15/07/2011 10:26am (6 years ago)
Thanks so much for this tutorial.
We at Studio Bonito have put this into a nice easy module to use. It also has a nice button for the TinyMC WYSIWYG
Feel free to fork it form our GitHub account - https://github.com/studiobonito/silverstripe-youtubevideos

23/05/2012 6:33pm (5 years ago)
I installed the youtubevideos package created by Studio Bonito and I have embedded a YouTube video into one of SS pages on my site. It works perfectly in Firefox, Safari, Chrome and IE9, but it does not work in IE7 or IE8. In IE7 and IE8, all I get is a white box where the video should be.
Has anyone else run into this problem?
15/02/2013 4:55pm (4 years ago)
I've created a module for SIlverStripe 3 based on this tutorial, see https://github.com/gordonbanderson/weboftalent-youtube for the code. The only difference from memory was changing
in the configuration file
08/04/2013 2:05pm (4 years ago)
Can anyone help me with how to use "Controller::curr()", as mentioned above please?
I've got "ClientYouTubeID" as a page variable, rather than as part of the ShortCode, so I need to be able to call the variable $ClientYouTubeID within my YouTube.ss template, and I don't understand how to do it. At the moment it just doesnt return anything.
12/06/2013 6:01pm (4 years ago)
I had the problem where it wasn't rendering the short codes when I added YouTubeShortCodeHandler to Page.php, but it did if I edited SomeExtendPage.php (extends Page). It turns out my problem was that even though I was adding it to Page.php, I tucked it to the bottom of my file, which isn't Page.class, but PageController.class, so if anyone is having problems, make sure your adding the method to the Page class.
Thanks for the guide!

The small college cross country season begins Saturday (Sept. 3) with the traditional Vanderbilt Invitational hosted by Hope College. The meet will be run at the Ridge Point Church on Holland's southeast side beginning at 10:30 a.m.
Started in 1966, the meet is named in honor of William Vanderbilt, Sr. who coached the Hope cross country program from 1971-87. A 1961 Hope graduate, Vanderbilt guided Hope cross country teams to 17 Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) championships, 14 by the men and three by the women. He coached current Hope cross country coach Mark Northuis who was an All-MIAA distance runner.
While at Hope, Vanderbilt chaired the department of physical education, recreation and athletics. He also served as president of the NCAA Division III Cross Country Coaches Association and in 1987 brought the Division III national championships to Holland. As a student-athlete, he lettered in basketball, baseball and track. He was captain of the basketball team as a senior and won the MIAA championship in the high jump in 1959. He received the masters degree from the University of Michigan and the Ph.D. from the University of Utah. Vanderbilt left the Hope faculty in 1988.
The first invitational was held in men's cross country in 1966. The women's cross country component was added in 1980.
Joining Hope will be teams from Albion, Cornerstone, Grace Bible and Muskegon Community, in addition to some invited unattached runners.

Consortium Support is a valuable mechanism that permits researchers to work closely with ICHEC staff with a long-term aim in mind over and above helpdesk-style issue resolution.
The PRACE project is a European body that aims to co-ordinate access to the very largest computer systems at a European level. ICHEC is actively involved at the co-investigator level with a number of PRACE projects.
DEISA, the Distributed European Infrastructure for Supercomputing Application recently held a call granting access to a number of Europe's leading HPC facilities. ICHEC was happy to assist a number of applicants with their proposals and is pleased to work as a co-investigator with two of the successful projects.
ICHEC is regularly cited in publications due to the support and resources it provides to the Irish academic research community. In some cases the level of ICHEC involvement in the work means that ICHEC staff act as co-authors of publications.
Reminder: If ICHEC has supported a publication you are working on, we would appricate it if you acknowledge this and notify us, for more details please see our FAQ.
Many-core compute platforms, such as the Intel Xeon Phi, Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are emerging as viable technologies in technical computing and traditional HPC due to the increased performance and power savings such platforms offer over more general purpose multi-core CPUs. ICHEC continues to develop a deep level of experitse in the area of many-core computing to further research in the field and to put in place expertise to assist users as such technologies mature.
In collaboration with Met Éireann, ICHEC provides hardware and support to run climate and weather forecast models. Our computational scientists also take an active part in the ongoing development of the models and conduct related climate/environmental research. Further information on our activities can be found in the following:
ICHEC works with various communities to develop tools and platforms that facilitate researchers in the field. The e-INIS project funds a number of ICHEC software developers to carry out such works. Details of projects that have reached a stage where we can provide public information are provided below:
From time to time, ICHEC forms partnerships with other organisations where the associated knowledge tranfer and collaborative activities bring mutual benefits to our researchers in the form of better expertise, support, training, best practices, etc.
The ICHEC Summer Scholarships offers the opportunity for undergraduate students to participate in research projects, supervised by our computational scientists. The type of research carried out is typically designed and led by ICHEC in the field of HPC and/or computational science. The outcome from these projects is available in the following:

Launch Date: 8/22/05
ESRB: Everyone
Genre: Strategy
Players: 1-8 for combat, 1-4 for all other multiplayer modes
Advance Wars ™, the award-winning turn-based strategy game, makes its debut on the Nintendo DS. Players lead their new Commanding Officers to fend off the Black Hole Army's latest invasion. With massive battles that sweep across both of the DS screens, Advance Wars: Dual Strike will change the face of war forever.
Game Storyline : On the heels of its last defeat, the nefarious Black Hole Army has fallen under the control of a deadly new commanding officer. He has sent its new COs to attack the nations of Wars World once again, and it's up to the allied armies of Orange Star, Blue Moon, Yellow Comet and Green Earth to put an end to Black Hole once and for all.
Characters : All of the COs from the first two Advance Wars games are here, as well as nine new characters. These include Orange Star's Rachel and Jake, Blue Moon's Sasha, Yellow Comet's Javier, Green Earth's Grimm and the Black Hole Army's Koal, Jugger, Kindle and Von Bolt. Each army receives new COs , each with unique CO powers.
How to progress through the game: Advance Wars: Dual Strike contains several game modes:
Both Combat and Free Battle are available for multiplayer matches. Using DS Download Play, combat can be played wirelessly by up to eight people using a single game card.
There are two kinds of battles: Normal and DS Battle.
Special powers/weapons/moves/features : Advance Wars: Dual Strike uses both screens: the touch screen for battles and the top screen for special information, from unit and terrain details to special conditions in each battle. In special DS Battles, players fight on the top screen as well, commanding both battles and redeploying units from one screen to the other. The Map Editor now uses the stylus, so that players can draw their maps right on the touch screen. Players now can trade their maps wirelessly too. Players also can use the stylus to give orders to their units; from moving to attacking, they control everything from the touch screen. Each time Commanding Officers win a battle, they gain experience – over time, they can learn new battle skills that increase their strengths or boost a unit's abilities. There are more than 40 battle skills. Each of the COs has two separate special powers: a CO Power and a Super CO Power. These powers can freeze the battlefield, boost the attack range, rain bombs on enemies and much more. Now COs can team up for Dual Strike attacks with even more impressive results. New playable units include hulking aircraft carriers, invisible stealth fighters, devastating omni-missiles and insanely powerful megatanks.

Massachusetts's second-largest city has always been Boston's ugly step-sister, ignored and marginalized by the state's political elites. Tell a Bay State political veteran that you're writing about Worcester's political power, and the first reaction, more often than not, is a hearty laugh.
But upon reflection, most of those apparent skeptics actually agree; as odd as it may seem — "Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, does it?" says one decades-long Massachusetts operative — Worcester is becoming a political epicenter of the state.
Tim Murray, the city's former mayor, became the first statewide elected official from Worcester in more than a half-century when he was sworn in as lieutenant governor in January 2007. He may soon be joined by Guy Glodis, the Worcester County sheriff who some consider the front-runner for state auditor. Plus, Karyn Polito, state representative from neighboring Shrewsbury, will be the GOP nominee for state treasurer.
And, after a long history of Boston heavyweights in Congress, from Speakers Tip O'Neill and John McCormack to Rules Committee chair Joe Moakley, it's central Massachusetts that will soon have power in Washington. Worcester's Jim McGovern is next in line to chair the Rules Committee — considered by some the most powerful position after Speaker — and Richard Neal, whose district includes Worcester's southern suburbs, is said to be the likely Ways and Means chair in 2011 if Democrats retain their majority.
Observers credit this new political muscle, in part, for an impressive list of projects forming a rebirth of Worcester. A $120 million deal with CSX will, if all goes according to plan, bring fast rail service. The transfer of Worcester Regional Airport from local control to the Massachusetts Port Authority could dramatically increase service in and out of the city. And there are other development initiatives, including the just-started CitySquare project, the renovated Hanover Theatre, and a rejuvenated Union Station/Canal District.
This emergence has been partially due to the westward shift in the state's population. But even more important, observers say, has been a generation of pols — officeholders and operatives — who have quietly but energetically built their own, and one another's, careers.
That generation is still rising. McGovern, the senior statesman of the group, is just 50. Murray is 42, Glodis is 41, Polito is 43, and mayor Joe O'Brien is 44. They may not have the look of political dynasty — the nebbishy McGovern, boyish Murray, and pudgy Glodis won't remind you of a Joe Kennedy or Mitt Romney. But you'd be hard-pressed to think of five Bostonians in that age range likely to wield more political clout in the coming decade.
Winning from outsideThe new power of Worcester made itself clear when Murray ran for LG in 2006. The conventional wisdom said that he had little chance to upset Deb Goldberg, the Brookline candidate backed by most of the Boston-area Democratic establishment. Although the population has been gradually shifting westward, there were simply too many votes on the Boston side of Route 128, people said, for a Worcester candidate to win statewide.
After all, we had seen this race before — in 1986, when Worcester's Gerard D'Amico lost the Democratic LG primary to Evelyn Murphy of Brookline.

"can we now all agree that letting MM go was Dumb-Dumb-Dumb !! "
the answer to the thread question is - NO ! it was not dumb because you can not pay 3,5 mil for #3 WR.
now , people have slowly turned this it into an MM vs DH thread .
but if comparisons are to be made between MM and other WR's , it should be Cruz and Nicks
that he gets compared to , cuz they are the 3.5 mil guys.

HOLLAND -- Dereck Chavis, the Hope College men's and women's track and field coach the past five years, has announced his resignation, effective immediately, in order to accept the position as head cross country and track and field coach of NCAA Division I Murray State University in Murray, Ky.
Mark Northuis, Hope's men's and women's cross country coach, will serve as interim coach during the 2005 season, according to Dr. Richard Ray, chairman of the department of kinesiology. Northuis was Hope's track and field coach from 1989-99.
"We congratulate Dereck on this wonderful opportunity and hope that his position at Murray State University will be a fruitful one for him, his family, and Murray State. He is a man of great integrity and while we will miss him, we also wish him well." said Ray.
"I am very pleased that Dr. Mark Northuis has agreed to serve as interim coach. Dr. Northuis is an experienced coach who enjoys the admiration of his student-athletes, colleagues, fellow coaches, and other members of the running community. Though he is a busy and productive teacher, scholar, husband, and father, he is committed to providing an outstanding experience for the students on Hope's track and field team. Not many people could do all that he does with such high quality, but he is an extraordinary person for whom we are very grateful," Ray added.
Under Chavis' guidance, the Hope track and field program produced seven NCAA All-Americans, 23 national qualifiers, 21 MIAA conference champions and 31 all-conference performers. Hope athletes set three MIAA and 32 school records. The women's team finished second in the MIAA for five consecutive seasons while the men's team ended as high as third in the conference standings four of the five seasons.

Football has been very, very good to us.
After losing seasons 2013-15, the giants put up 11 wins in 16.. they are on way Back
But for now we can console ourselves with this fact-
# of Super Bowl victories since 1985:
1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Seattle
2-Washington, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
3-San Francisco, Dallas, Denver
4-New York Giants!!!
Let's make it 5 in 2016 so we can be on a LINE NE again!!!
***Stat provided by "Schloss22"***
On paper, the Eagles schedule gets easier. Now they just HAVE TO start playing better defense and special teams.
IF the Eagles beat the Giants on Sunday and WHEN the Cowboys lose to Denver, the Eagles will be tied for first in this wretched division.
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.
Can't think about anything until we can won ONE game. If we can manage that this weekend, and Dal loses to Den then there is a punchers chance of getting back into the division race.
Maybe this is a good thing, lets get all of these games out of the way, start this weekend and be in high gear come December
Forget the Past, Live for the Future!
Giants at Chicago tonight. Giants will probably lose.
Eagles at winless Tampa Bay on Sunday.
Redskins, after a bye, play Dallas after game against Denver.

I'm planning on purchasing my first two hives and equip for next year. I'd like to get it before Christmas just because then my sister and nephew will probably have fun painting their exteriors with weird stuff after I fully apply a paint color. I was hoping that there might be black Friday/cyber Monday deals. Is this unrealistic?
Many of the bee suppliers already seem fairly priced to me. Right now I am eyeing Mann Lake for my supplies because they are only a state away and have rite cell.

Reviews of this property
Sehr schöne, moderne Wohnung, sauber, praktisch eingerichtet. Das Schlafzimmer zur Straße hin etwas laut. Die Schlafecke im Wohnraum, in Form einer Veranda, ruhig, mit wunderschönem Blick. Im "barrio" nette Cafés und Restaurants, die Altstadt gut zu Fuß erreichbar.
Einziger Nachteil: An einigen Tagen Fäkalgeruch aus dem Fahrstuhlschacht, sodass das Badezimmerfenster geschlossen bleiben musste.
Fazit: Wir haben uns wohlgefühlt, zumal es auch kein Problem war, zwischenzeitlich Überraschungsgäste in der Wohnung unterzubringen.

The owners are very helpful and friendly. The apartment is in walking distance to shops and a metro station from which one needs about 20 min.bis the center of Barcelona. Two of the three bedrooms have exterior windows and are very basic. The rest of the apartment is nicely decorated and has the note ended things Zun life. The apartment is a bit noisy.
Die Vermieter sind sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Die Wohnung liegt in unmittelbarer Nähe zu Geschäften und einer Metrostation, von der man ca. 20 min.bis ins Zentrum von Barcelona benötigt. Zwei der drei Schlafzimmer haben keine Außenfenster und sind sehr schlicht eingerichtet. Die übrige Wohnung ist nett eingerichtet und verfügt über die notendigen Dinge zun Leben. Die Wohnung ist relativ hellhörig.
It is a very nice appartment which is suited for a family or a couple of friends. I am a fan of the neighbourhood (les corts). It is a typical spanish neighbourhood with a lot of small bars, restaurant and bakeries but it is not in the city centre. However the metrostation (green line) is really closeby and takes you within 15 min to the ramblas. I would not mind coming back here on my next visit to Barcelona
Also, we can only confirm that everything was as described on the internet. Despite early arrival we were greeted personally and also the fridge already contained refreshments and snacks.
Elio was to reach at any time. We had a lovely time in sunny Barcelona and recommend the accommodation you further.
Auch wir können nur bestätigen, dass alles so war, wie im Internet beschrieben. Trotz vorzeitiger Ankunft wurden wir persönlich empfangen und auch der Kühlschrank enthielt schon Erfrischungen und Snacks.
Elio war jederzeit zu erreichen. Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit im sonnigen Barcelona und empfehlen die Unterkunft gern weiter.
Thank you to Elio for his kindness and warm welcome! The apartment is very nice, bright and well equipped and ideally located to explore and enjoy Barcelona (quiet, supermarkets and shops nearby metro station "Les Corts" 100m). We will definitely be back!
Merci à Elio pour sa gentillesse et son accueil chaleureux !
L'appartement est très agréable, lumineux et parfaitement équipé, et idéalement placé pour découvrir et apprécier Barcelone (quartier calme, supermarchés et commerces à proximité, station de métro "Les Corts" à 100m).
Nous reviendrons sans aucun doute !
The apartment is very clean, very well equipped and great location. We were three of us and everyone had their own bedroom. It is also good to spend 4 wonderful days. Thank you for the very friendly welcome and easy unwinding of all issues. The pictures on the internet do not promise too much and you can feel very comfortable. The subway is min in Figure 3. to achieve and there are plenty of supermarkets and restaurants all around. The price performance ratio fits great. Since we had a little chilly, were even small radiators in the rooms! Thanks for everything, we were really excited.
Das Appartement ist sehr sauber, sehr gut ausgestattet und toll gelegen. Wir waren zu dritt und jeder hatte einen eigenen Schlafraum. Man kann auch gut zu 4 wunderschöne Tage verbringen. Danke für den sehr freundlichen Empfang und die unkomplizierte Abwickelung aller Belange. Die Bilder im Internet versprechen nicht zu viel und man kann sich sehr wohl fühlen. Die U-Bahn ist in 3 min. zu erreichen und es gibt viele Supermärkte und Lokale rundherum.
Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis passt super. Da wir es etwas kühl hatten, waren sogar kleine Heizkörper in den Räumen!
Danke für alles wir waren wirklich begeistert.
Dear Elio,
thanks for the nice stay. Comfortable and clean appartment with enough space, great hospitality, appartement is close to shops and the metro - perfect! Everything was fine! We would like to come back!
The apartment is as neat and in order, as described in quiet neighborhood. 100 meters to the metro, and 15 minutes later you can stand on Pl. Catalunya and the Rambla. Also close to Camp Nou. Wilken received us and was available if there were any problems. The refrigerator contained even the most necessary things. We stayed here for 3 days and have absolutely only positive to say about the experience. We will gladly come back when it's sunny in Barcelona.
Lejligheden er lige så pæn og i orden som beskrevet i roligt kvarter. 100 meter til metro, og 15 minutter senere kan man stå på Pl. Catalunya eller Rambla. Også tæt på Camp Nou. Wilken modtog os og var tilgængelig, hvis der skulle være problemer. Køleskabet indeholdt oven i købet de mest nødvendige ting. Vi boede her i 3 dage og har absolut kun positivt at sige om oplevelsen. Vi kommer gerne igen, når det bliver solskin i Barcelona.

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a noise? Of course it does, as far as I'm concerned. That is, an observer does not affect reality by merely observing—at least not when it comes to big things. But what about small things, like photons and electrons? Recent work at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel indicates that "watching"—at least at scales smaller than one micron—can indeed affect reality.
The work at Weizmann is the latest development in a story that begins in 1801, when the British scientist Thomas Young conducted his two-slit interference experiment. He let filtered sunlight pass through a pinhole and then onto a surface with two more pinholes. The light passed through the two pinholes and to a screen, where the two sources of light generated so-called interference fringes, alternating stripes of brightness and darkness. The bright stripes developed where both waves were at a peak or a trough, and dark stripes indicated where a peak of one wave coincided with a trough of another. Such an example of interference can be seen wherever two waves overlap in space and time, whether the waves exist in light, water or virtually anything else. That experiment might have convinced most scientists that light travels as waves, except for one problem: When Isaac Newton published Optiks in 1704, he described his corpuscular theory of light, which claimed that light travels as particles. Unfortunately for Young, many scientists still accepted Newton's theory.
Eventually, scientists realized that Young was right. Light travels in waves. But in the early 1900s Albert Einstein confused the issue again. The photoelectric effect, where light landing on certain metal surfaces causes electrons to be released, makes sense only if light travels in discrete particles, which Einstein called "light quanta," and which are now called photons. Instead of continuing to argue—particles, waves, particles—scientists concluded that light travels in waves in some circumstances and in particles in others, which led to the concept of wave-particle duality.
Just three more twists set the stage for the work at Weizmann. First, wave-particle duality applies to more than light. For instance, electrons act like particles in some cases and waves in others. Second, Niels Bohr posed the principle of complementarity, which states that something cannot act simultaneously like a particle and a wave. It may act like one or the other, but never like both at the same time. Finally, a contingent of physicists led by Bohr believed that the characteristics of electrons, light and other things at the submicron level depended to some degree on whether anyone tried to observe or measure them. That idea came directly from quantum mechanics, which is essentially a set of principles that explains what submicron-size particles do. Einstein led an opposing group that believed that observation plays no part in determining reality. Things are as they are, Einstein might have said, whether you look at them or not. Consequently, Einstein believed that the theory behind quantum mechanics was incomplete. Bohr and Einstein could only speculate about who was right. Today, physicists can test the two hypotheses.
One important result came in 1991 when Leonard Mandel and his colleagues at the University of Rochester published an optical-interference experiment in Physical Review Letters (67(3):318–321). In essence, they generated two beams of light derived from a laser and caused them to interfere, which is a wave-like phenomenon. But if they used an arrangement that allowed the path of the light to be determined, the interference disappeared, whether or not this determination was actually made. This experiment brought out the particle nature of the light, so by the principle of complementarity it could not simultaneously display the wave-like nature required for interference. "In so far as the experiment confirms the quantum prediction," Mandel says, "the experiment is hardly revolutionary. Perhaps its most useful feature is the demonstration that what matters is not what is known, but what is knowable in principle, because this takes any anthropomorphism out of physics."
But how finely tuned is this principle of complementarity? If you could adjust how closely you looked at a particle, would the level of interference vary accordingly? That's what Mordehai Heiblum and his colleagues at Weizmann wanted to know, and they recently published their findings in Nature (391:871–874). Using state-of-the-art integrated-circuit technology, they built a tiny device—less than 1 micrometer in size—that creates a stream of electrons that pass through a barrier by going down one of two passageways, much like Young's two-slit experiment. The passageways "focus" both electron streams on a device that measures the level of interference between the streams.
Eyal Buks, a graduate student in Heiblum's laboratory and lead author of the article, explains that making such a device work properly requires considerable tuning of the elements or adjusting their voltages. "What makes the tuning problem even more difficult is the tendency of these devices to drift with time." One of the tiny pathways included a particle detector that could be adjusted for sensitivity. To make sure that the detector did not disrupt the flow of electrons along either path, they disconnected one path and looked at the flow of electrons in the other path with the detector on and off. Then they disconnected that path, reconnected the other and looked at the flow of electrons along it with the detector on and off. They found no differences in any of these conditions.
With both paths connected, the electrons interfered—until the investigators turned on the detector. Then the interference disappeared. More interesting still, Buks and his colleagues measured the interference between the two streams of electrons while varying the sensitivity of the detector. When they increased the detector's sensitivity, making it more likely to detect a passing electron, the interference diminished. In other words, more observation led to less interference.
According to Ady Stern, one of several physicists whose theoretical work provided some of the impetus for the recent experiments at Weizmann, "I think the primary significance is having an experiment in which the effective interaction with the environment is so nicely controllable. Here they really have a knob controlling the interaction strength." Such fine control may one day be used in electronics that use an electron's particle nature for some tasks and its wave nature for others. By then, it might seem obvious that an electron's flow through an integrated-circuit forest depends on how many other electrons are "watching."—Mike May

One of my hives did not make it through the winter. The upper deep is completely filled with capped honey. I would normally just restock the hive with new bees, however, I have completely switched over to small cell frames and the failed hive was the last remaining large cell left. Is it safe to extract the honey to eat?
There does not seem to be any signs of disease. I'm pretty sure they lost their queen last fall and I was too late in re-queening before the winter.
