iTunes 12.4: Editing the Sidebar
iTunes just got updated, and version 12.4 looks a bit different. For one thing, we can use the sidebar again (whoo!), and for another, we can edit that sidebar to show only what we want it to (double whoo!). We've got the how-to right here in today's Quick Tip.
OS X: Making Your Mac Stop Ringing
Is your Mac ringing when your iPhone does? Does it also ring when your Aunt Mabel attempts to FaceTime with you when she really meant to call instead? We've got your backs, dear readers. Today's Quick Tip is about stopping your Mac from receiving calls, so you can get some work done without stuff buzzing in your face every hour.
Gmail: Checking Your Account's Security
Today's Quick Tip is about your Gmail account and how you can make sure no one has accessed it recently or made changes without your permission. Luckily, Google provides an easy way to see where and when security breaches have happened, so let's check it out and be safe!
OS X: Figuring Out Forgotten Passwords
There's a program called Keychain Access that keeps the passwords you've asked your Mac to store, and your browser may have a list of items you've saved, as well. In this article, we'll cover how to pull your data out of those programs to find things before you go through the trouble of resetting lost passwords.
OS X: Turning Off Inline Mail Attachments
If you've ever wondered how to stop Mail from showing you images and PDFs right in the body of the messages you're composing, wonder no more. There's a Terminal command that'll let you turn that feature off, so if you want, you can always view your email attachments as icons instead. Melissa Holt's here to tell us how in today's Quick Tip.
Changing Your Wi-Fi Channel for Improved Speed
This Quick Tip is about how you may be able to improve your network speed by analyzing what channel your Wi-Fi is on. If you live in a congested area, you might see dozens of wireless networks around you, which really isn't ideal for keeping your own network speedy. We'll talk about how to tell what channel you're using and several options for what to do if you find a problem!
3 Toolbar Icons to Make OS X Mail more Powerful
Did you know that you can change which buttons appear in Mail's toolbar? You can, and looking through the list of possibilities may just give you some new ways to interact with your email.

Apple's Numbers: Using Data Formats
Let's talk about Numbers! Apple's spreadsheet program isn't flashy, but it works well, and some of the less-obvious stuff it can do is really helpful. For example, you can format your cells so that you don't have to type dollar signs, or you could configure custom formats to automatically turn "8008675309" into "(800) 867-5309." Jenny'll be much easier to call after today's Quick Tip.
How to Change Your Apple Device Names (And Why You May Need To!)
For today's Quick Tip, we're going to talk about renaming your Mac and your iPhone/iPad. Why, you ask? Because if you ever have to use iCloud to locate a lost device, having them all have generic names is a pain, especially if you own quite a few Apple gizmos (or if your kids' devices are all logged in under the same Apple ID). We'll teach you how to sort it out!
Using EtreCheck to Diagnose Your Mac Problems
Today's Quick Tip is about EtreCheck, a third-party tool that's very useful when you need to diagnose problems on your Mac. Its extensive reporting covers all sorts of potential problems, and if you're helping someone else remotely, the data it generates can even be shared to give you a quick peek into what might be going on.

Ask Health Experts and Get Answers to Your Health Question ASAP
Thank you for writing to JustAnswer with your question.
You may be aware of this, but besides calling your doctor to let him know of the increasing edema and so that he/she can possibly prescribe you a diuretic (Norvasc helps blood pressure and has effects to strengthen your heart, but is not primarily a diuretic) there are measure you can take:
Elevating your legs. When possible getting your legs up to hip level or even level with your heart at least 3 times per day can help.
Compression stockings or TED hosiery. These can help a great deal. When possible you will want to put them on when your legs are the least swollen. For many people this would be when they wake up in the morning.
Of course monitoring your salt intake is important. This means no salty snacks like chips or pretzels or highly processed foods like fast foods. You may be aware of checking the labels for soups and some prepared foods that are made with lower salt, but if not, those should be your choice at this time.
Exercise the muscles in your legs when ever you think about it, several times an hour even. Are you familiar with isometric exercises? Those are exercises you do with your muscle while you still remain in one place. The reason why this will help is because your veins have one way valves in them that prevent the blood from going back down into the legs. The valves will not work if the legs are not moved. Pumping the muscles a bit every so often will help the blood go up back towards the heart as it should.
This is an article from the Mayo clinic about edema in case you want to read more about causes: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/edema/DS01035/DSECTION=1
If your edema has worsened, since you last saw your doctor, it will be important to call or see your doctor so that he/she can increase or add medication, or draw labs to see if there is a change in your electrolyte balance.
To summarize, elevate your legs, apply compression hosiery, perform exercises moving your legs or/and contracting the muscle while you sit (isometric exercise), remove highly salty foods, and notify your doctor if this is an increase in edema.

The daughters of a retired British Army colonel hacked to death in his Kenya home have flown to Africa ahead of the post-mortem examination.
Lieutenant-Colonel David Parkinson, 58, was killed after being slashed with a machete when a gang of hooded men broke into his home.
His wife, Sonja, 52, had her arms tied behind her back, was stabbed and threatened with a pistol by one of five men who smashed into the house as the couple slept early on Sunday, but escaped to a safe room.
The intruders stole some money, a bottle of champagne, a laptop and a mobile phone from the ranch outside the town of Nanyuki, about 125 miles north of Nairobi, police said.
Officers with sniffer dogs held a man in connection with the case in a nearby village on Sunday.
The couple's daughters, Renate, 30, and Anna, 33, who live in the UK, flew to Kenya yesterday.
Lt-Col Parkinson served in the Army for more than 30 years.
The ex-Parachute Regiment officer retired to Kenya and had helped to run the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy reserve, where Prince William proposed to Kate.Reuse content

Any Day Now's most redeeming quality is that it isn't so quick to neuter its queer characters into a package-friendly "gay couple" aesthetic a la Modern Family. The depiction of Rudy (Alan Cumming) and Paul's (Garret Dillahunt) connection preserves the idea of the possibility of an inter-orientational rapport in which a male's femininity isn't hilarious, or grotesque, but actually desired. Their queer coupledom is one we don't normally see at the movies, one in which femaleness and the male body can coexist without shame and cross-dressing is more than just a performance.
In the film, which is set in the 1970s, Rudy is a drag performer who lives in a run-down apartment complex whose neighbors are a junkie mother and her Down syndrome-afflicted and doll-loving son, Marco (Isaac Leyva). When the mother goes missing, Child Services comes looking for Marco so they can place him in foster care. Rudy, however, decides to take the boy in and care for him, around the same time that he meets Paul, a butch lawyer buried deep in the closet who's at once attracted to and embarrassed by Rudy. They quickly become a couple and move in together, bringing Marco along as their child. The state is having none of this queer arrangement, which sets the couple into a hard-fought legal battle to keep Marco.
Yes, it sounds melodramatic, and there are moments when Any Day Now leans toward Lifetime-movie sentimentality, namely through its score and the cheesy "all a child needs is love" rhetoric. But the film also preserves, through the unpretentious handling of delicate issues such as disability and the relationship between gender non-conformant children and parents, a much more authentic idea about difference: One can be more than one thing at the same time. Desire in the film is about accretion, not exclusivity. Gays' clichéd response to pigeonholing, "being gay doesn't define me," actually feels real here, as Rudy, Paul, and Marco's affection triangle teems with too many particularities for it not to exceed the categorizations that the law demands.

Our big announcement on the Trump-Russia scandal.
RUSSIA'S SPHERE OF INFLUENCE....Today brings news that Russia is happily playing the neo-Cold War game too:
President Dmitri A. Medvedev of Russia on Sunday laid out what he said would become his government's guiding principles of foreign policy after its landmark conflict with Georgia notably including a claim to a "privileged" sphere of influence in the world.
....In his unabashed claim to a renewed Russian sphere of influence, Mr. Medvedev said: "Russia, like other countries in the world, has regions where it has privileged interests. These are regions where countries with which we have friendly relations are located."
Asked whether this sphere of influence would be the border states around Russia, he answered, "It is the border region, but not only."
Noted without comment, except to say that this is exactly the kind of time when you'd like to have a steady hand on the foreign policy tiller. John McCain, who apparently gives these kinds of situations about five minutes thought before tossing off a depth charge just to see how it sounds on the evening news, is not that kind of guy.

FOR RELEASE: Immediate, Saturday, December 8, 2001
Morrisville, N.Y., December 8, 2001
– Despite a standout performance by Hudson Valley Community College goaltender
Jason Vasco (CBA), the Vikings' ice hockey team lost a nail-biter to
SUNY Morrisville, 2-1, this evening. Playing at Morrisville's Ice Plex,
Vasco kept Hudson Valley in the Eastern Junior College Hockey League contest
by recording 58 saves.
Hudson Valley, who does not play again until
Jan. 11, is now 8-3-1 overall. Morrisville is 10-0-1.
Hudson Valley fell behind, 1-0, with just seven
minutes gone in the first period, but the Vikings responded 1:25 later.
Second-year forward Mike Santamoor (Saratoga H.S.) rushed the puck
the length of the ice and muscled a defender off his back to fire off a
shot while sliding toward the Morrisville net on his knees. The shot was
knocked away by Morrisville's goalie, but All-American Jim Sturges (East
Hampton H.S., MA) rifled the rebound home.
With the game tied at one goal apiece, Vasco
had his work cut out for him in the second period; Morrisville pounded
him with 18 shots. He was up to the challenge, however, turning away every
shot, including five during a stretch in which Morrisville held a two-man
Morrisville scored the game-winner at 12:58
in the third period, on a power-play goal. With about a minute remaining
in the game, Vasco was pulled off the ice to give Hudson Valley a one-man
edge, but the Vikings were unable to capitalize.

Weather puts damper on Wake County Cup
Posted August 18, 2014
Thunderstorms rolled into the Triangle on Monday evening just as the Wake County Cup was getting started. Wake County Cup: Garner vs. Apex (Aug. 18, 2014)
At Green Hope High School, Garner and Apex managed to get in 46 full minutes of play before the game was suspended. The Cougars led Garner 1-0 at the time of suspension, and that score stood as the final score of the game.
The game-winning goal for Apex came in the 19th minute from Matt Greico.
With lightning in the distance, the game was suspended with 33:47 left in the match. Teams were sent to the locker rooms while fans took shelter in their vehicles. Just before 7 p.m. the game was made final.
Officials had hoped to play the Millbrook-Green Hope game later Monday evening, but that game was eventually postponed until Tuesday at 6:30 p.m.
The Wake County Cup games at Sanderson High School were also impacted by the weather on Monday. Heritage and Cardinal Gibbons made it to halftime where the two teams were in a 1-1 tie before the game was suspended.
Sanderson is slated to play Raleigh Charter at 7 p.m.

I'm working on the crest of the wave tank and for some reason I'm having difficulty at the joining for the body portion. I actually thought I had it correct but as I continued to knit, I realised the pattern was forming on the wrong side instead of on the right side.
Ok, here's part of the story... for the upper back and front you knit back and forth as opposed to knitting in the round. Now its time to join the upper portion at the armpits and when I join and begin to knit in the round the pattern is forming on the wrong side of the work instead of on the right side. The last four rows I have for the upper portion before joining to knit in the round are all knit rows. So I knit across, turn the work, and knit across and then do this two more times for a total of 4 rows. Then the pattern starts back after joining with knit rows and then a purl row and then the lace row in there. But instead of the lace pattern showing on the right side its showing on the wrong side. Can you picture it? I would really appreciate some help as I've tinked back just before the join about 4 times now.
Here's the pattern row that starts right after the join (keep in mind the last 4 rows before the join will be all knit rows)
Crest of The Wave II, Opaque (mltpl 14) (for rounds) Rnds 1 & 3: kRnd 2: p Rnds 4, 6, 8, 10, 12: *(k2tog)x2, yo, k1-f&b, k1, k1-f&b, yo, (k2tog-tbl)x2, k3, rep from * to end of round. Rnds 5, 7, 9, 11: knit
Thanks for any help!
I think you're probably holding your needles in such a way that you are knitting on the inside rather than the outside. The first 3 rows after joining you wouldn't notice because you are doing knit 1 round, purl 1 round, knit 1 round....when working in the round this type of pattern forms garter stitch which is the same as your previous 4 rows of knitting all stitches, back and forth.
The problem comes with the next row. Take a look at how you're holding your needles. You need to be holding the two needle ends of your circ closest to you with the right side of the work facing you. I think you're probably holding the two needle ends away from you (ie. with the cable of the circ and all the knitting between the needles and your body), therefore you are knitting on the inside of the tube rather than the outside.
Hi Knitqueen,
Thanks for being up and offering some help! I will try it and see if it goes any better! Going to try now...
Hi Knitqueen!
It worked. Thanks so much! I think one of my issues was that where the working yarn ended for me to join in the round, it would have been in my left hand as opposed to my right, so I just turned it around so that I could knit in the round thereby ending up in my predicament.
Thanks so much! :muah:

More Assassin's Creed Coming in 2011
Posted on Friday, November 26 @ 07:12:00 PST by Anthony Severino
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood just released this past month and already Ubisoft is talking about more Assassin's Creed coming at the end of 2011.
News just broke of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood selling over one million copies across Europe during its first week on sale, making it Ubisoft's best-selling game ever. When a game performs that well, especially when the game releases in the same window as a Call of Duty game, then you have yourself a cash cow. Ubisoft knows this better than anyone else, which is why they're already planning on milking the franchise for all its worth by releasing yet another Assassin's Creed in 2011.
While speaking with MVCUK about the recent sales milestone, Ubisoft chief of marketing, Geoffrey Sardin, confirmed a new Assassin's Creed for 2011:
"Yes, Yves [Guillemot, Ubisoft CEO] mentioned it last week in our financials – and more details will be forthcoming,"The last two Assassin's Creed titles took place in Renaissance Italy, while the first took place in the Holy Land. Will the next Assassin's Creed find our stealthy hero in yet another location? Sardin says its a strong possibility:
"If you've read the comic books you will see that we took Assassin's Creed to the USSR, or Caesar's Rome – that's a good example of what we could do in the coming years in the next video games,"Are you ready for even more Assassin's Creed? Doesn't matter, it's coming anyway.

Video: Energy independence could be as easy as 1-2-3
posted at 2:05 pm on December 6, 2011 by Tina Korbe
Bet you'll never guess which country is the world's largest holder of natural gas, oil and coal resources combined. That's right. This country. According to a report released today by the Institute for Energy Research, the United States has 1.4 trillion barrels of recoverable reserves of oil — or more than the entire world has used in 150 years. That's enough to fuel the United States for the next 250 years. Add natural gas and coal resources to that and we're good to go for all the foreseeable future.
But, thanks to backward energy policies, we're still dependent on foreign sources of oil. What is perhaps even worse — at least at a time of 8.6 percent unemployment — is that those backward energy policies that restrict access to our own resources also force us to forgo badly needed jobs. Research shows that reduced job creation — not increased layoffs — explains the high unemployment we have now. Here is a readymade way to create jobs, which, again, the president says is his top priority. In fact, the IER report shows we could create 1 million jobs just by (1) unlocking more federal lands, (2) developing shale resources and (3) eliminating excessive regulation.
Why, why, why is this controversial again? I understand that fossil fuels are nonrenewable and that people are properly concerned about the potential for their total depletion. But what good does it do to conserve them just to never use them? Or, better, why is it so hard to grasp that depletion is hundreds and hundreds of years away? Why not use the energy resources we do have, trusting the impending exigency of depletion to spur innovation and the probable development of an economically viable renewable energy source? Time and time again, technological innovation has enabled us to use oil and gasoline more efficiently and to access new reserves. Similarly, a creative and affordable fulfillment of the need for a renewable resource will emerge. In the meantime, we could be enjoying energy independence and an expanded job market.

Welcome! That's cool! Sorry for just not getting back to you. Yes, I'm! That's cool and great you used to live in TN. What part did you live in? TN is good! Where do you live at in CA? Which one do you like better? Have you ever seen Taylor in concert or met her? How are you? Sorry for all of the questions.
Hey there Swiftie! So as you may have seen on the forums or in my blogs, I'm writing to you today to personally invite you to join me in a fun little project that is already well under way.?
To make a long story short (and if you want the long, detailed version you can check out the official project page in my blogs): We, meaning myself and hundreds of Swifties from Taylor Connect are currently in the process of making Official Unofficial Lyric Video for the song "Red". Why, you might ask? To both celebrate the dawn of the Red era and to show the one and only Taylor Swift just what all of this means to us, the fans of course!! After everything she does for us, this will be our way of doing something back for her.?
Interested? Excited? Confused? Tired? Fighting an uncontrollable urge to scream out loud that you are, in fact, a little teapot (handle, spout and all!)? Well, first things first, the best way to understand what we're doing is to see the original inspiration for this project, courtesy of the folks behind the Broadway Musical "Title of Show"?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtdgvmYUuuA ??
Now, take that idea and apply it to Red!! So far, the creativity people have been bringing to the table has been beyond incredible and now I would like to offer you your own chance to get in on the action. Just respond to this message expressing your interest, and you can be a part of this amazing opportunity to unite with your fellow Swifties as, with one voice, we celebrate the dawn of the Red era!! Let's give this album and the beautiful artist behind it the welcome they deserve! You might want to hurry though: there are officially less than 20 words left to give out and they are going FAST! So send me a message and join up!

Got mine today!!
These things are frikkin' works of art! Its a shame to have to weather them eventually. I would rather polish them and put them on a shelf somewhere!
Excellent quality psberetta! You should be very proud of the workmanship in these.
I want a metal lathe so bad.
Very nicely done...thanks!
got my set today...awesome...you are the man
Thanks from me too Tim! It's hits the spot for my MLC!
Got mine today too.
Really fine work! Thanks.
Thanks for the kind words guys.
Glad you like them.
Got mine today....I can't express how happy by the look on my face when I opened the package. Just EXCELLENT.
Only critizism is that the JP Stabilizer didn't come with a screw, but that's OK. What's the size of the screw (deep, size, thread type-number)? Just to find a screw of the proper size and fit. Other than that....:thumbup
Another thing....which kind of LED did you use for the beacon? I am planning to use two types of LED's, with the sequence used in ESB (more accurate as of now), with a circuit I have hanging around and experiment with it, just to try to get the same results. More to come.
The thread size is 6-32.........sorry about that.
As for the length, .500 long with a washer should do it.
Thanks man. That greately helps.
Got my set today. Outstanding work!!!
Any of these still available? I've got a friend interested who does not frequent the net due to his job. LMK.

Accepting the banner on behalf of FSU were last season's captains Ashley Green (middle) and Karla Fairbanks (right), both of whom completed their collegiate eligibility following the championship campaign. Ferris State Events, Facilities and Marketing Manager Mike Haggerty (left) made the presentation to the squad.
The Bulldogs claimed their ninth GLIAC Championship in 2004 after winning the league's annual postseason tournament. FSU concluded the 2004 campaign with a 25-7 overall record and a second place 14-4 GLIAC North Division mark. The Bulldogs also advanced to the NCAA-II National Tournament for the 12th time in school history. Last season's GLIAC Championship under head coach Tia Brandel-Wilhelm was the school's first since 1990.
New banners signifying FSU's eight other league titles have also been added to the volleyball-only facility to replace existing banners on the east side of the arena.
Ferris State, which is currently ranked 19th overall in the latest (Sept. 26) 2005 CSTV/American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Division II Coaches Top 25 Poll, continues its five-match homestand by hosting Michigan Tech Friday, Sept. 30, in a 7 p.m. (EDT) conference home tilt.
Ferris will then host Northern Michigan Saturday, Oct. 1, with the league home match set to start at 4 p.m. (EDT). FSU, which is presently 12-4 overall and 2-2 in league play this campaign, concludes the homestand against Lake Superior State Sunday, Oct. 2, in a 1 p.m. (EDT) GLIAC home encounter.

Exactly , this is just an initial shock, mostly how it goes, then people start searching for another similar web site that seals cheaper and then they figure out that support is bad, quality rubbish, design to be polite old and they come back.
Any idea why only some of my themes (older ones it seems) benefited from the $5 price increase?
DrDisco said
...This being so, for me 45 or $ 50 is entirely too much. $ 35 dollars I was fine. Besides, if I have to wait several days or weeks to have support, $ 50 is certainly not justified.
The problem is that we (Envato and other stock marketplaces) has created a monster. I can't imagine any case in my past (many years) as a web designer and developer that $50 was considered too much and not justified for what is being sold here.
I know is a "public" template what you are buying, but from my personal opinion even 4 times that amount could be a fair price for what you are getting, even if it's for personal use and not reselling for third client. Support is not something to be considered as "full included" but also i'm sure almost all good authors here give good and reliable support within our files. Any bad independent experience should not be considered for this kind of global change, very important for us authors to motivate for future and existing works.
I've definitely seen a drop in the number of sales but I'm still at my average amount of daily earnings.
Yesterday (first day with price change) was slightly better than avg. Today a bit slow, but it's normal to have daily fluctuations. I often have 2-3 days of sad sales and then things pick back up and the weekly avg ends up good. I will wait a full week or 2 before I start forming a better opinion.
That said, at my typical weekly sales the past few months, I figure I can sell about 2 LESS per day and still make the same profit. So the hope is to maintain the same sales… only time will tell.
I'm dead in the water over here. 5 sales yesterday, 1 today… I've averaged a solid 10 sales a day for the past few months.
As a buyer, I just noticed the price increase. I will continue to purchase themes here. However, I will be more careful in my selection, ask more pre-sales questions, and be less willing to try new developers who have not yet established a reputation. There are a lot of themes in my download area that were never used for various reasons.
I dont think you guys can really compare sales until you have 1-3 months of data, of course the initial weeks or so they may be down but you may still profit the same. everyones thats complaining about the increase will either A. go somewhere else with the same quality(not that there is any) B. get over it and end up buying themes in a week or so.
when many buyers use theses themes for "client" work they're going to have to suck up the price hike or find somewhere else to get there stuff but again is there any with the same quality for the price? no most are actually more $$ 75-150 per theme..
For me i will start to buy on other maket place… 50$ its to much right now, just my opinion.
Im about to get real
—- - looking over all these discussion. I want everyone to READ THIS --
First i am a graphic designer with small web knowlege. I do websites and some I get from here. I have been buying product from ACTIVEDEN when it wasnt envato labled – and it was called flashden.
As an author – the beauty is you can create a unique site that you could sell to one client for 1700 to 15,000 – probably more depending on the client. But here you can sell that same 35 site 3000 times which you can do the math – and you dont need to offer full time support.
So really I design flyers – I make 65 for one because everyone is cheap as hell nowadays and if i charge 80 they will go somewhere cheaper or download jacked copy of photoshop or illustrator and do it themselves…and it looks horrible.
Now Im getting ready to upload my flyers to envato – and they are awesome because i do them for clubs in Miami, DC etc. I will make 50 times as much because i can sell bulk
HERE IS THE REAL PROBLEM – AND THIS IS A TOPIC OF ITS OWN – the visibility of envato is so huge, all you have to do is type in themes and envato pops up and say i charged 500 for a template and did not tell the client it was a template -which is what most people are doing, and these people are the reason this place survives. Heres the thing – now you will see the same site on ten dif locations – so now its not worth anything to the client – hes like" I just saw the site you charged me for 500 on themeforest for 35.00 -BIG PROBLEM -
How about this – its no secret what the buyers are doing – 90 percent are wannabe web designers or designers not feeling like designing, or they know enough to recode some stuff but not enough to do it their selves. So now that everyone in the free world sees envato stuff – it becomes less special for the buyer and more of a 35 dollar template. And i bet most of them have bought subscriptions to tutsplus to learn to design personally and forget the template sites.
My solution is to hide envato like a treasure and do away with the 700 themes that look the same and get more quality unique themes – then charge a subscription – there are already enough buyers on here to close it down publicly and it should be insider knowlege only ( a jewel) like a secret society for designers. I dont see many restaurant themes, music themes, club themes on here….I do see 5000 web agency sites. Now i do understand that we the designers could get our site on here – and its for personal business and not designers selling your theme to another client…but thats happening.
The price hike will affect your sales – but thats people – they want the best deal. Now if you made this site more exclusive – then im sure people would not mind paying 60 even 100 for a site. Kinda like a dj record pool – where they have to fill out a form to join and are accepted…I dont know just a thought.
But i do know this – nobody wants the same site as another person – or to even know there might be one out there – kinda like walking in a club and another guy has your shirt on.
I am for the price raise because if people are reselling they can just charge 15 dollars more – no big deal – but i believe the easy access and exposure to themeforest has lessened the real value – and lets be honest not many are going to pay the exclusive price….what if I bought an exclusive site – what happens??? do you call the people who previously bought the site last week and tell them they cant use it???? think about it. Sorry for all the typos its midnight and ive been designing all day – zombie

Irish Coffee: The homecomings of Celtics greats
|12.03.10 at 12:55 pm ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
Other than a Cavaliers assistant coach telling him to "shut the [bleep] up" and a fan tossing a battery in his general direction, things couldn't have gone much better for LeBron James in his return to Cleveland on Thursday night.
The two-time NBA Most Valuable Player produced 38 points, eight assists and five rebounds, as his new team (the Heat) beat his former team (the Cavaliers), 118-90. Not too shabby.
But you know who had a better game in his first game against his former team? Danny Ainge.
I decided to do some quick research into every former player who either had his number retired by the Celtics or appeared in an All-Star game as a member of the team in order to see who had to face the C's after appearing in another uniform.
Basketball Reference didn't have box scores for the seasons that Jo Jo White (Warriors), Dave Cowens (Bucks), Ed Macauley (Saint Louis Hawks), Tiny Archibald (Bucks), Bailey Howell (76ers) and Paul Silas (Nuggets) could've faced the Celtics as opposing players for the first time after donnning green and white.
That left Ainge, Cedric Maxwell, Robert Parish and Antoine Walker. Here's a synopsis of how each player performed in his first game against the Celtics after playing in Boston:
Danny Ainge (1989-90 Sacramento Kings)
- Back story: Ainge and Brad Lohaus were dealt by the Celtics to the Kings for Joe Kleine.
- The game: Celtics 115, Kings 112 (OT)
- Stat line: 39 points, nine assists and six rebounds
- His quote: "It was a highly emotional game for me. I never wanted to beat a team so badly as I did them that night."
Antoine Walker (2003-04 Dallas Mavericks)
- Back story: The Celtics traded Walker and Tony Delk to the Mavericks for Raef LaFrentz, Jiri Welsch, Chris Mills and their 2004 No. 1 pick.
- The game: Celtics 105, Mavericks 103
- Stat line: Seven points, eight assists and seven rebounds
- His quote: "It was nice to see [the fans' reaction] and very surprising. It kind of puts a closing for me in Boston, and I can move on with my career."
Cedric Maxwell (1985-86 Los Angeles Clippers)
- Back story: The Celtics dealt Maxwell, their 1986 No. 1 pick and cash to the Clippers for Bill Walton.
- The game: Celtics 125, Clippers 103
- Stat line: Six points and 10 rebounds
- His quote: "Revenge? How can you be seeking revenge against a team that's stil paying you?"
Robert Parish (1994-95 Charlotte Hornets)
- Back story: At the age of 41, Parish signed two-year, $5.5 million free-agent deal with the Hornets.
- The game: Celtics 98, Hornets 91
- Stat line: Eight points, four rebounds and one block
- His quote: "I must say I was surprised by the length of the ovation. I'm not comfortable with being honored, showered with appreciation. But it's always appreciated."
Unlike LeBron's return to Cleveland, the only bad blood that existed in these cases came between the player and management as a result of the trades — rather than between the fans and the player. All four of those guys are beloved by Boston fans. I'm not sure James will ever capture Cleveland's adoration again.
Speaking of former Celtics, two-time NBA Coach of the Year Bill Fitch, who guided the C's to the 1981 NBA championship, is a finalist for the 2011 class for the Hall of Fame.
"I haven't even thought about that," Fitch told Houston's local FOX affiliate. "When you get to be my age (76), the only hall you think of is the big one upstairs."
"They have a shirt and tie of mine somewhere up there," Fitch added. "You know how when you win a big game the hall of fame asks you for something. So I feel like I've undressed at the hall, but they've never asked me to stay."
Fitch may have the eighth-most wins in NBA coaching history, but he also ranks second for most losses at the helm. Former Celtics star Don Nelson and coach Rick Pitino are also finalists for this year's Hall of Fame class.
Sporting News polled 76 current and former NBA players and coaches — including Rick Barry, Dee Brown, Bob Cousy, Dave Cowens, Bill Fitch, Tom Heinsohn, Daryl Morey, Jim O'Brien, Doc Rivers, Paul Silas and Jo Jo White — to determine the league's top 50 players.
Kobe Bryant ranked No. 1 for the second straight season, capturing 49 of the 76 first-place votes. James, Dwyane Wade, Kevin Durant, Dwight Howard, Carmelo Anthony, Dirk Nowitzki, Deron Williams, Steve Nash and Pau Gasol rounded out the top 10.
Here's where the Celtics finished (last year's ranking in parentheses):
14. Paul Pierce (10)
16. Rajon Rondo (38)
20. Kevin Garnett (7)
25. Ray Allen (27)
35. Shaquille O'Neal (16)
Considering 11 of the 76 contributors had Celtics ties, the numbers may have fallen in their favor. Do you think Heinsohn had them ranked 1-5, with Glen Davis at six?
Baseketball Reference creator and Trail Blazers statistical consultant Justin Kubatko contributed an interesting analysis to The New York Times of the NBA's top point guards over the last year and change. Along with their shooting percentages and assist percentage (number of teammates' field goals assisted while on the floor). He also included two new statistics:
"The first, steal percentage, is an estimate of the number of steals the player records per 100 opponent possessions. The second, win shares per 48 minutes, is an estimate of the number of wins the player generates per 48 minutes played (the league average for this statistic is 0.100)."
The results determined Chris Paul, Deron Williams, Rajon Rondo and Tony Parker were the league's most productive point guards, in that order. Here are the results:
- Paul: 51.9 2-PT FG%, 39.4 3-PT FG%, 86.7 FT%, 51.2 AST%, 3.68 STL%, 0.264 WS/48
- Williams: 51.1 2-PT FG%, 34.4 3-PT FG%, 82.8 FT%, 46.0 AST%, 1.66 STL%, 0.175 WS/48
- Rondo: 52.8 2-PT FG%, 25.4 3-PT FG%, 61.9 FT%, 42.8 AST%, 3.16 STL%, 0.166 WS/48
- Parker: 51.0 2-PT FG%, 30.6 3-PT FG%, 77.4 FT%, 36.2 AST%, 1.40 STL%, 0.144 WS/48
Perhaps what's most surprising is how much better Paul is than everyone else. As Kubatko notes:
This is not much of a contest. Paul shoots the highest percentage on 3-pointers and free throws; he has the best assist percentage; he has the top steal percentage; and he generates wins at a rate almost 51 percent higher than the next-closest point guard.
The first of NBA Entertainment's five-part, behind-the-scenes documentary of the Celtics airs Friday night at 7.p.m. on ESPN, prior to their game against the Bulls at the Garden.
My favorite part of this preview, other than the fact that former New Kid on the Block Donnie Wahlberg is narrating it, is this quote from Shaq:
"Sometimes, you've got to put things in business terms. When I was younger, I was the CEO — everything was branded my way. But now, I'm an older guy, an experienced gentleman and they have a CEO, so I look at myself as a consultant. And, if it's all about winning, then you have no problem doing that."

Lobos Complete Sweep of No. 22 Ranked Gonzaga
March 11, 2012
ALBUQEURQUE, N.M. - The Lobos completed the three-game sweep of No. 22 Gonzaga in front 1,425 fans at Isotopes Park Sunday afternoon. It was easily the most complete series UNM has put together this season. Gonzaga came into the series undefeated and left winless against the Lobos.
"It's what I expect out of this team," UNM head coach Ray Birmingham said. "The thing we have to do is play baseball the right way, and if we do that we can compete against anybody."
Rudy Jaramillo was simply fantastic on the bump for the Lobos. The senior went seven innings, allowing only one run on six hits while striking out a season-high seven batters to improve his record to 2-1. Birmingham described his performance as "fantastic."
"My job is to keep our team in the game and put them in a position to win, and that's all I did," Jaramillo said. "This was a huge series for us. People are excited. We got that energy back and we're ready to go now."
The Lobos jumped out to an early lead by scoring two runs with two outs in the first. After DJ Peterson walked, Josh Walker knocked him home with his fourth triple of the season. The four triples for Melendez is already more than any Lobo recorded last season. Kyle Stiner continued his excellent series with a perfectly laid bunt. The single scored Melendez and provided Jaramillo all the support he would need.
The Bulldogs scored their lone run in the fifth. Second baseman Alex Stanford tripled to center and was driven in by a single to left by pinch hitter Andy Hunter.
The Lobos immediately struck back for two more in the bottom half of the inning. Designated hitter Alex Real led off with a single up the middle. Two batters later John Pustay tripled to right, driving home Real and chasing Gonzaga starter Derek Callahan. Peterson then laced a single to right for his sixth RBI of the week.
Josh Walker came on to relieve Jaramillo in the eighth and pitched the final two innings to earn his first career save.
The Lobo pitching staff was simply outstanding against Gonzaga, which came into the series with the 18th-highest team batting average in the nation. Gera Sanchez, Austin House, Jaramillo and Walker combined to limit the Bulldogs to three walks and one earned run over the last 20 and one-third innings of the series.
"In the last two days we really pitched," Birmingham said. "But if you're going to go where I want to take this program, you have to pitch."
The Lobos look to continue their recent run of success Tuesday night at 6 p.m. MT at Isotopes Park against intrastate rival New Mexico State. The Aggies are coming off a weekend home series against Kent State. "Now we have a winning streak going and hopefully we can continue it into Tuesday," Jaramillo said. "Hopefully this is the momentum we need to get this season right on track."

Help! Our contractor made our kitchen cabinet door stain TOO ORANGE!
2 Attachment(s)
Hi, I need help! We have new kitchen cabinets made of hard maple. We chose a solvent based stain, ("sylene"?) which looked perfect on the sample. Told the contractor and he made all the door faces without showing them to us first... even lacquered them. So they are on now, and it's way too orange. It's not the same color as the sample at all! The sample was lighter and more of a honey natural cherry look. The pictures I attached show the doors which are too dark and orange-y, and there's also a picture of the trim over where the microwave will go. I can at least probably live with that shade, but the problem is it doesn't match all my door faces! See the trim color? I like that ok, but this is sooo orange when you walk in the room I'm in tears.
The whole kitchen is off, though there are spots I like that are actually the correct color. He lacquered the cabinets with a hard based conversion varnish lacquer. Guys, help me please. The stain's solvent based (*sylene*) is what he said.
We saved our money for YEARS for our dream kitchen and my husband I are so disappointed. The contractor is independent with a sick wife and we realize now we made a grave mistake in hiring him. His work is even shoddy. There's no way he's going to fix this color for us.
At this point, the contractor is almost done and cannot even the cut right sized hole for our sink in the counter, so I don't want to overwhelm him with my disappointment and want to try to fix myself or hire someone competent to fix it. Any ideas on how to tone down the cabinet doors and lighten them up a bit? The doors are all a shade too dark (bright). The trim is great but what am I going to do ?????? I'm miserable as this is the heart of our home. I have a lot of pictures if anyone wants to see more detail of what i have vs. what i want. help help help. thank you, Paula & Joe
If he stained a sample piece of the same type and color of wood, and you approved it, why on earth should he eat the labor of re-doing it. Especially if you supplied the stain yourself.
I wont make any assumptions, but by any chance was his bid a good bit lower than others you got?
The whole deal sounds very familiar...just like the millions of other stories in which customers shop on price alone. The guy underbid because he doesnt have a bunch of experience tackling a job of that type, he gets hired....realizes that he is WAY behind the schedule he had in his head and is now in jeopardy of working for about $7 an hour, so he starts hurrying to get done, The quality of work suffers and now he is being called out on the quality and is considering disappearing.
If my understanding is correct, you shouldnt hold him accountable for the color problem. What you should do is bite the bullet and call a professional wood finisher to do it right, and expect to pay accordingly. Dont use the original contractors staining price as a comparison to what the pro will charge. They are two different ballgames.
Did you have the complete stain sample with the clear coat or only a stain. Clear coating always changes things. The doors are wood and wood is a natural product with differences and imperfection:( that can account for shades being off from one door to the next. If these are both the case and the work is kind of shoty I think senditall hit the nail on the head, sorry:(
Is the problem only on the doors?
They say a camera doesn't lie, but they are not reliable when showing paint and stain.
It appears that there are two differnt colored stains. Very apparent. One has a lot of brown the other is red.
At any rate, the doors can be stripped and refinshed.
If the guy screwed up the color, why on earth should the customer have to pay? It was his job to bid it right in the first place, it's not the customer's concern if he makes a dime.
Standard practice is to present the customer with color boards which they sign off on. Many shops leave the customer with a board. It's certainly normal to have variations in color on wood, but it's unacceptable to have the frames one color and the doors another if they're supposed to be one color.
Could you show pictures of the entire kitchen or at least of a wall of cabinets?
I have to say, unless the picture is decieving, the stain job on those doors looks fairly unprofessional. It appears to have been wiped on to a door that was not properly sanded, and the stain used appears to be an oil stain. Not known for an even, natural look.
There is nothing you can do to lighten a finish, short of sanding and refinishing. (You'll need to sand off at least some of the stain, which will be difficult around the cove moulding surrounding your panels.) You can however adjust the color of the door without refinishing. If you want to take out some red, you can have a finisher spray on a compatible green stain. Something that looks kelly green will actually not look green when applied, but will give the finish more yellow/golden tone, and less orange/red. It WILL however slightly darken the finish. There's no getting around that. Everything you add will block more light, and darken the finish slightly.
I agree with both PK and senditall above. The finisher should be responsible for providing a product that matches the sample boards he gave you. But you have to consider whether this guy has the skill to be able to fix this. If this finish job was the best he could do, you might be squeezing blood from a stone to try to get a better fix out of him. He just might not be able to do it, and even if he's willing to try, he might mess it up more trying.
Your best bet might be to darken the face frames to match the doors, and leave it at that. Try to step back and realize that in a couple months a minor shade difference will not be noticable to you if the whole kitchen matches. Being this close to it is more upsetting, but as long as you get things to match, it'll look fine in a few weeks when you've forgotten that the color you wanted was slightly lighter/yellower/whatever.
When you say you chose the stain, and it looked perfect on the sample, do you mean that it looked perfect on a manufacturers sample at the store? Or that the cabinet finisher did a sample board for you?
When I just reread your post it sounded like perhaps you did not get a sample. Just relied on what you saw at the store. If that's the case, then it's not at all suprising that the cabinets don't match your expectations. How can the cabinet finisher match a sample that he didn't prepare, and he doesn't even know how it was done, or what it was top-coated with?
I think that it's the person selling himself as a cabinetmaker who has to provide a sample of what the finished product looks like. He is the person who is supposed to have the expertise, not the customer, and should have sense enough to establish the finished color. Just doing his best isn't enough. Even if the customer told him what stain to use based on chips from the hardware store, he's still responsible for doing color samples and getting those approved by the customer and then making the entire piece reasonably consistent.
I've had instances where colors didn't match. Sometimes you get lazy or try out a new product or try and fix a mistake and end up making a mess out of things. I once accidentally sprayed the face frames with lacquer and the doors with poly. I didn't notice it in the shop but once installed it was obvious. I can understand the dilemma from the contractor's point. This guy might not have the ability or cash to fix the problem and that's unfortunate for everybody.
Did it get poly already... if not... may be try to make the color go another extreme such as real dark... that may be better than orange.... it is too late to do other things, sanding it all out is too painful...
There is no easy way to "tone down the cabinet doors and lighten them up a bit"
The project would involve completely stripping them and refinishing them
They could be painted a lighter color with slightly less work
But that would involve using an oil based primer and two coats of premium enamel (oil based or waterborne)
Also no small project
Depending on the exact wording in the contract you signed, you may have a fair amount of recourse
If all is as it appears to be, there's no way you should bear the cost of refinishing them
If you would like opinions on the language of the contract, and educated opinions on how to proceed, please don't hesitate to post up the pertinent parts of the document(s), or Private Message them to me if you'd prefer not to post them up
But if that's not the case here - if the customer and finisher didn't use samples in their discussion then they're really both suffering from their own inexperience, and they're both at fault. I hate to say it, but it looks to me that you've gotten in with a novice cabinetmaker/finisher, and there's not a lot you can get out of him as to a resolution. Yes you could sue him, and if you have a contract you might win. Then you could get your money back, but from your post, it sounds like you've got sympathy for the guy, and that you aren't likely to take this course. Short of that I don't know what he can do for you. He can't lighten the cabinets. The best he can (and should) do, is make the faceframes match the doors better. Once they match, I think you'll be happier, and hopefully both of you can move on from this mess.

Those are just two different colored stains, in the top picture. The pine just wouldn't make the color look that much different.
If the stain was just wiped properly, the job itself would look a lot better. Looks like it was just painted on, to make it darker because the maple wouldn't take it like the pine did. Still, it's not the same as the stain on the pine.
In the second picture, the pic on the right does appear do be brown, but not like the brown on the pine. A lick of the finger applied to it would have showed the red before finishing. Looks like the painter was trying to color match. But it didn't work. How to fix it? You can't. All together now," We can make them darker, but we can't make them lighter".
They need to be stripped, or sanded with a machne.
If it's just doors, it might be a diy project. Once stripped, we can tell you how to match the color you want, by using the samples at your paint store.
Pic is hard maple honey stained.

No strangers to one another on the collaborative front, mita sneakers and HECTIC link up for another sneaker project, this time bringing ANDSUNS on board. Working with the New Balance MT580, the trio embark on a rather simple scheme which takes inspiration from your classic work boot aesthetic. Produced with a premium quality leather upper, the shoes carry a more rugged texture than your standard variety New Balance, equipped with a thicker double stitch, tonal embossed tongue, white accenting and traditional work boot laces. An official release is slated for April 29 with the real price of ¥17,640 (approx. $208 USD).

Macau Reported Strong Gaming Revenue In November
In November, Macau gaming industry surprised on the upside again. Total gaming revenue grew 21.3% year-on-year to $3.8 billion.
This has been a stellar year for Macau. Year-to-date, gross gaming revenue has risen 18.6%. But the markets are spoiled by now and starting to ignore positive news flow. While not expecting a correction, Credit Suisse believes Macau stocks will under-perform the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index as we head towards year-end.
The key issue is December. Investors use year-end numbers to set their expectations for next year's gaming outlook and last December makes a difficult benchmark to meet. Gaming revenue grew at a brisk 20.1% then.
In November, Las Vegas Sands's (LVS) market share improved from 20% to 22%. WYNN (WYNN) gained from 10% to 11%, MGM (MGM) from 9% to 11%, and Melco Crown (MPEL) from 13% to 14%, all at the expense of SJM and Galaxy Entertainment.

Top Morning Stories 2/7
A group of North Central Florida Elementary School students went home with a letter Monday night that said their teacher had been fired.
The teacher is among 21 men arrested in a multi-agency sex sting operation based here in Gainesville.
24 year old Lenard Norman, a second grade teacher at Metcalfe Elementary School in Northeast Gainesville has been arrested on child sex charges.
Some Metcalfe parents said they didn't get a letter from the school about Norman's arrest.
Rossean Coffil said, "I'm glad that you're telling me but something should've been done from the school, letting everyone know."
45 year old Matthew Gendron, a Physician's Assistant at UF who works in the department of Anesthesiology , was also arrested.
When he was hired in 2001 UF didn't go back ground checks.
In a statement to TV20, a UF spokesperson said UF's current requirement for criminal checks on new faculty and staff hires started last year.
Mother Arrested in Gainesville
An 18 year old is in jail after her 3 year old son was found wandering alone outside of their apartment complex.
Gainesville Police officers said Amber White left her son home alone Monday morning when she went to school.
A maintenance worker found the child crying by a garbage dumpster and called police.
Officers put the boy in protective custody and then tried to find his mother.
White told police it was a misunderstanding, saying she thought someone was with the child.
The boy is now staying with relatives. White is charged with child neglect (a third degree felony).

Onkyo TX - NR609 7.2 Channel Network THX Certified A/V Receiver
Viewing Review: Ahead of its time receiver still provides quality sound over the years.

Great sound quality, integrated internet audio services, excellent build quality, ROHD commands over HDMI to compatable devices
Not as small as some receivers. Airplay would be nice if I had a Mac.
Onkyo has a formidable track record in the field of home cinema amplifiers, and the TX-NR609 got off to a flying start when I got it back in 2011. Back then, it was a mid level in price but high quality in features that roped me in.
Even after upgrading my home theater system with more HDMI devices, a Panasonic Viera plasma TV and TiVo Premier 4 DVR my opinion hasn't changed. This is still one heck of an amp for the money – a real show-stopper. Fed the DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the Onkyo serves up surround sound of the highest order.
The '609 has a strong-armed, speaker-thrashing side which is all too ready to come out when a movie demands it, but this Onkyo is more than a bare-knuckle brawler.
Truly communicative with music.
There's a level of gracefulness, subtlety and refinement that allows it to engage with the listener on many more levels. Harry Potter's musical score sounds wonderfully detailed and dynamic. As Hermione erases her parents' memories, the somber accompaniment leaves a lasting impression.
This natural tone, combined with excellent detail and dynamics, gives the '609 a real advantage with CD playback. There are very few receivers at this price that are as comfortable playing music.
In terms of socketry and features, it's as well-equipped as any rival, and it's arguably also one of the best-looking, thanks partly to a smoother, more sophisticated finish compared with previous generations of Onkyo amp. RIHD (Remote Interactive over HDMI) means my several year old Onkyo controls my new plasma's volume control via HDMI and automatically turns on and selects the correct input when the TV is turned on, great for the wife who wants one touch simplicity.
THX Select2 Plus certified
The '609 is THX Select2 Plus certified, opening up various THX-approved surround modes and settings. The provision of six HDMI inputs (five rear, one front) is in line with rivals, as is the vast array of video and audio inputs on the back – which include a couple of digital coaxial and optical inputs.
There's an FM tuner built-in, though I never use it since off air reception is iffy in my canyon location.
The Audyssey 2EQ automatic speaker calibration is simple and succinct, while the inclusion of both Audyssey DSX and ProLogic IIz gives you the choice of front height, front width or surround back speakers as your sixth and seventh channels of surround sound.
A fully fledged network receiver
The 'NR' in its name indicates that this is a fully fledged network receiver. Via the ethernet socket on the back you can access Pandora and Spotify premium internet radio, while there's DLNA compatibility for accessing music and video stored on other devices on your home network.
You can log-in to your Spotify account via the remote control and on-screen menus, and then play back your favorite tunes and playlists. You can connect and stream music directly from an iPod or iPhone, but Mac users will need to note, there's no AirPlay functionality to take advantage of.
Still, this is hardly grounds for any major criticism – and nor should it be, given just how superb this home cinema amplifier sounds.

If you think about weather-related names, there are certain obvious ones that spring to mind—Rain and Snow, Frost and Tempest, Sunny, Stormy and Misty. But there are other, more subtle ways to reference the climate condition of your baby's birth—something that's been part of the tradition of some other cultures. Here are some ideas of names that for the most part embody weather phenomena in their meanings:
Amaya, which means "night rain" in Japanese and is also a spelling variation of a Basque name, with echoes of the popular Amelia and Maya, has been a Top 400 name since 1999, and is now at Number 215. When Mariska Hargitay chose it for her newly adopted daughter, she said, "Amaya sounded so open and feminine and beautiful, just like her."

text: The head grower from Backyard Farms has resigned after the Maine greenhouse had to destroy two crops of tomato plants this summer. Backyard Farms, which operates a 42-acre greenhouse in Madison, has said the problems mean a new batch of tomatoes won't be available in grocery stores until early next year. The Morning Sentinel, says the company says it's already searching for a successor to head grower Tim de Kok. Officials said the resignation was coincidental to the destruction of two tomato crops. The company typically produces more than 27 million pounds of tomatoes each year. The first crop was destroyed because of a bug infestation and the second was because of weak seedlings.

Frostproof struggles with growing or disappearing
There are 120 comments on the Orlando Sentinel story from Oct 1, 2007, titled Frostproof struggles with growing or disappearing. In it, Orlando Sentinel reports that:There is no Wal-Mart or Publix here. No Chili's or Burger King. No mega subdivisions of cookie-cutter homes.

It's too late to worry about it.
#2 Oct 1, 2007
Don't worry, growth has nowhere else to go, it'll eventually reach Frostproof.
#3 Oct 1, 2007
thanks to our free trade which is putting citrus growers out of business because other countries keep under cutting us. our family farm is just breaking even, another slice of old florida disappearing rapidly. more weakening of america on the global front and over-developement will take it's toll on the natural resources of Florida.
#4 Oct 1, 2007
To all the people that hate growth so much, how long have you lived here? Aren't you part of the growth problem? I've lived in Florida for 25 years does that give me the right to tell everyone whose moved here in that 25 years to get the heck out of the state?
#5 Oct 1, 2007
born and raised in central florida, 4th generation floridian, take your growth back north with you
United States
#6 Oct 1, 2007
does any one know if that the same ben hill griffin that florida field is name after?
#8 Oct 1, 2007
Frostproof seems like one of those places when they have their Christmas parade they get both police cars started and running at the same time and in the window of the gourmet food shop, they feature a jar of "Cheez-Whiz".
#9 Oct 1, 2007
Kind of. Ben Hill Griffin III is the son of the man the stadium is named after. It's Ben Hill Griffin Stadium at Florida Field. Hill is Ben Hill Griffin IV.
#10 Oct 1, 2007
That would be correct.
#12 Oct 1, 2007
What a boring and useless story...who cares about Frostproof. The 10 or 20 people who live there??
Since: Jul 07
#13 Oct 1, 2007
So, the wealthy and prominent family who has the most and really doesn't have anything to sweat tells all the folks who are losing their lively hoods not to worry, because 60 years ago this happened, and they survived just fine...except that half the town was lost, and the world doesn't work the same way it did 60 years ago. Nice to live in a protected world and see it through rose-colored glasses. Mind if we borrow those in the bread line? then maybe things wont' seem so bad. growth is inevitable, unless you actually fight against it. How you grow is what defines you as a town, and community. there is such a thing as "smart growth " and if you have the right-minded leaders, then it is possible to look forward to a future, instead of sitting in your porch rockers watching all your neighbors move away or die off.
If you have no businesses, you have no families, no families, is no schools, or groceries, or hospitals, etc, etc... town death sneaks up on you before you know what happened.
Good Luck, FrostProof
#14 Oct 1, 2007
Bye bye, Frostproof. Bye bye. BYE BYYYYYYYYYE!
#15 Oct 1, 2007
That's an unkind thing to say. We natives and longtime central Floridians care about an old way of life that is disappearing. I miss driving down 27 and seeing nothing but groves. I realize you're probably from Ohio and couldn't care less about the way things were before your Super Walmart was built here for you, but how about thinking of someone other than yourself?
#17 Oct 1, 2007
Times change. Adapt or die.
#19 Oct 1, 2007
Yes, the Northern Plague stops for no one!
#20 Oct 1, 2007
If you have a problem with the belssings God has given them maybe you should look back at the past generations of your family and shun them for not sticking their necks on the line in a business as volitile as agriculture. The Griffin like many large ag families in Florida have had to endure hardships just as everyone else. Dont blame them for being blessed!

Fifth generation Floridian here. Take you growth back up North.
Biff ? My neighbor has a dog named Biff.
#24 Oct 1, 2007
The North stomped all over your Confederate butts the last time you all refused to adapt to change and evolve into a more sophisticated society. Some of the ideas posted by locals seem to indicate that not only would you prefer the North to go away, but you would just as soon turn back the clock to a time where slavery existed. Change is inevitable- if you resist it, you will fade away, just like this town.
#25 Oct 1, 2007
Lake Letta disappeared. Why not Frostproof?
#26 Oct 1, 2007
Wow I've forgotten how much I miss Old Florida. Growing up here was great. We knew all of our neighbors, we walked to school with no worries and going to UF, FSU and Miami football games since I was old enough to walk (I'm a UCF grad and fan now!)Someone said who cares well I do but change is going to happen but we will never forget the old days. Thanks to the Sentinel for bringing me back to those days!!

Teaching Metacognition
Session Details
Tuesday, January 29, 2008
10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
Regency Ballroom West (2nd Floor, B-Level)
Session Type: Featured Session
As educators, we teach students content but also want to help them develop as learners. Metacognition—the process of thinking about ones own thinking processes and strategies—is essential to both goals, and yet instructors often feel they lack time or expertise to teach metacognitive skills. This session will discuss recent research on teaching metacognition, including a Carnegie Mellon program where metacognitive instruction is integrated into first-year science courses.

HYDE PARK, Friday—This place seemed filled with Democrats yesterday afternoon, and even in the morning they began to arrive at Miss Nancy Cook's cottage; for she had arranged luncheon for a large group. Every year or so, Mrs. Henry Morgenthau, Jr. and I tell the county chairman that we will each be glad to have a tea for the Democratic women.
This year, Mrs. Edward Conger, who is vice-chairman for Dutchess County, included the women from the four neighboring counties, and told me she would have about 400. Yesterday morning, however, when Miss Thompson checked up, she found that it was more than likely that we would have 800. We could hardly be blamed for being a little appalled, because when you live in the country it is not quite so easy to go around the corner to buy extra food. However, by dint of collecting everything from everywhere, I hope that everyone who came got something to eat and drink. I ceased trying to make sure when I seemed completely surrounded by hands which I was trying to shake.
The President and Secretary Wallace came over for a few brief minutes, and I must say that the country seems the proper setting for these two men. They both look more natural and seem happier without hats and sitting on the back of a seat of a small car. They went off with a party to picnic in a distant spot, but I could not leave until late in the afternoon. Then the rest of us went up to picnic at my old home, five miles above the village of Tivoli.
The house looks very much neglected, and for many years nobody has done much to the grounds except cut down some trees. Still, as we sat and ate our picnic supper, watching the sun go down behind the Catskill Mountains, I could not help feeling a sense of beauty and peace. It may be sad to return to the scenes of one's childhood and realize all the things that have happened in the intervening years to the people one loves; yet there is also something very sweet in remembering the good things which no sadness can wipe out.
For instance, into this house of adolescent life, with young aunts and uncles enjoying to the full a gay and fairly undisciplined existence I came with my brother after my mother's death. It was natural for my grandmother, already in the middle years of her life, to be willing to take in her eldest daughter's children. As I have grown older, however, I appreciate more and more the spirit which made those young aunts and uncles make us, as children, feel that our home was with them; that we had as much right to be there as they. There never was a question of what was thine or mine among us. That is something which makes for a deeper belief in the good of human nature and helps one through the rough spots all the rest of one's life.

The funeral service for four Waskada residents killed in an airplane crash will take place Monday at 2 p.m. at the Jolly Construction shop, located just south of the village, according to a friend of the families.
Darren Spence, 37, his two sons, Gage, 10, and Logan, 9, and their friend Dawson Pentecost, 9, died after the six-seater Cessna 210 Spence was piloting crashed into a farmer's field north of Waskada on Sunday.
There will be a shared service at the shop, which can hold between 600-700 people, according to the source.
A fund has been established to help cover the funeral costs for Dawson. Cheques for the Pentecost family can be made out to the Village of Waskada, postal code R0M 2E0.
The Village of Waskada has also set up a special fund in honour of the three young boys killed in Sunday's plane crash.
The money donated will be used to send kids in the community to summer hockey camps.
Donations can be dropped off or mailed to the Waskada Athletic Club.
