One PointMature
I had a case of far way eyes and all Caleb could say was " it' s going to be okay". That's the best he could come up with. Something generic. Something everyone said to someone hurting. There was a reason it was always said because a lie is always gentler than the truth. The truth is always the biggest bitch. He couldn't, wouldn't say this was point one and now was our only chance to even up the score. Did we want to even the score?
I felt the weight of his palm on my shoulder and I gently squeezed it. I looked to him, I needed guidance. No lies this time. I wanted the icey truth.
" So where do we stand?" I asked
He looked thoughtful " They won't strike us directly"
Because of me, they wouldn't strike directly. They'll only make me wish they did.
Caleb grabbed me by the arms. I thought he was literally was going to shake some sense into me, but then I looked into his eyes.They were so sad. Emphatic. I knew then he was reading my mind.
" Tell me everything about Jared"
I shrugged my shoulders " There isn,t much to say"
And much to emblish
" Mom had Jared too young she said. Even though she was like twenty two. But she didn't have a decent education or a decent job. So she gave him up. He went to live with these bible thumpers. I came along two years later and mom tried to make it work with my father..."
But it didn't.
" When Jared was eighteen he came looking for his mother and met me. I guess he felt sorry for me, so he asked me if I wanted to move in with him.He noticed my mom kind ignored me. At first I said no, but two years later. I wanted a change of scenery. Jared quickly realized that my mom had given up on saving me and that I had brought on her coldness. I was hard to love. I was out of control. I worked like crazy but never had any money. I spent it all on pot and booze. I had given up on the rec stuff by then.I never had rent money. In short I was the worse room mate in history. " I laughed.
Jared didn't have it in him to kick out his own sister, so he moved out.
" So, your brother has a big heart" Caleb said
" A big misguided heart"
" It was a learned behavior" Caleb responded
I saw then what he wasn't saying. From Father to sun they passed on the title of vampire hunter.
My mother may have taught me how to drink but at least she didn't teach me to torture and murder.
" Did they ever try to convert you?" Caleb asked
My head snapped to attention. I saw it then my epiphany. It was a jumble of images but it made perfect sense to me.
" What is the Octagon?'

Discussion in 'News Zone' started by Mr Cowboy, Sep 5, 2005.
NFL Live.............good to see Woody again.
I seen him too. He did a good job too, I think.
Woody is a pretty good speaker. Someone should give him a shot as an NFL analyst. When you look at some of the guys doing it now, Woody would only be a definite upgrade.
Hate I missed that. Anybody got a recap and what they were discussing and his thoughts?
it might be on again at 12:30 ET or around that
He mainly talked about Rice's retirement. He does come across very well.
WG... He was on for the whole show and it appeared as if he may be a new addition to the team this year.
They were talking mostly about Jerry Rice... Woody was saying that he was one of the greatest ever, talked about how his routes were so precise and crisp.
He looked pretty comfortable and did a good job I thought, unfortunately Salisbury was the one next to him and was asking him stupid questions about Rice. Like... how early did you start preparing to play Rice?... Woody basically said .. if you played Sunday, then Sunday night... but I'm sure this was true in most cases. Woody was also saying that you also had to prepare for the rest of the team, Steve Young, etc.. and that the Deion's and Kevin Smith's were the ones who really had to deal with Rice.
All in all Woody was good, I'm just not sure he matches well with Salisbury right now... I think Woody is just working his way in and doesn't want to cause any waves so early, but hopefully he starts to challenge Salisbury a little bit more. I was getting the feeling that he didn't want to make him look stupid, so he just went along with the dull questions.
hey if he was with Salisbury then he definitely was the smartest one there.
That's usually how it goes..and then ESPN seems to want them to get into some kind of schtick, like the Jaws/Hoge pass/run debate. Or the Irvin/Young thing.
However it turns out, I hope they let Woody be himself...not some foil for freakin Sean Salisbury.
Sometimes I think ESPN tries a little too hard to work it's analysts like an actual football game...as competitors and not colleagues. It might make for more drama, but the analysis is what suffers when one guy can't say anything unless it contradicts another.
Yeah, good to see someone who was actually played football and a HALL OF FAME level on the show.
Thanks Smack. He's actually gonna be a regular, so I look forward to seeing him on TV daily instead of weekly. Woohoo!!
I do think once he gets comfortable, he'll start laying the wood on Salisbury too. Salisbury is not always an idiot, but then when someone contradicts one of his statements, he starts foaming at the mouth and his face gets all red and sweaty. Generally, I start tuning him out and I'm sure I'm not the only one who does that.
Tsk, Tsk ... I thought you were a better stalker than that. I'm glad I know where Mike is every Sunday, and Monday night
I'm glad to see football come this week and I'll be equally glad to see this week over with. Jerry Rice's retirement is ruining it for me. Yeah he's great, he's good ... but does it warrant all this?
Stalkers need sleep, too. Not alot, but enuff. It's hard work chasing after the impossible... :
Trust, I won't miss another one if I'm home to see it.
Maybe we could hire a hit man to off Theiswoman and he could go get his spot.
It was actually Trey Wingo, not Salisbury, who was next to him, and he did make mention at the end that Woody will be there all season.
Wow... I must have been really tired... I probably figured that the only one lame enough to ask those questions was Salisbury..sorry about that... I was clearly only interested in what Woody had to say.

We spent most of today there (9.30 to 3.30pm) and in the late afternoon, we visited their holiday house across the road on the beach which they built for their annual visits.

Klara Hobza - Nay, I'll Have A Starling
The story behind Klara Hobza's current project Nay, I'll Have A Starling began in1890. In that year the Acclimation Society of North America decided on bringing all the birds mentioned in Shakespeare's plays to USA from Britain, and among these were 60 European Starlings. The birds were released in Central Park in New York, and today there are more than 200 millions in North America. They are regarded as pests and considered noisy and aggressive, an invasive species in other words. Klara Hobzas plan is to capture 60 starlings in the US and bring them back to their origin in London. Her project began in 2005 and since then she has been doing performances, video works and now drawing, paintings and objects all centred on the starling topic.

These Are The Books The Oscar-Nominated Movies Are Based On
The Oscars are coming — and even if you don't have any intention of watching, you know you'll find yourself in a conversation about them at some point. So what should you do? We say, read the books.
Unsurprisingly, plenty of Oscar-nominated movies this year are based off books, because Hollywood is really good at "adapting" things (like, for instance, movies that in no way need remakes).
Thanks to our friends at Indigo, we've discovered there are 10 books on which the Oscar-nominated flicks for 2016 are based — and while Hollywood is starting to give the publishing houses a run for their money with crafting stories that are as good as what's on the page, we always like going back to the source material.
The book shop also has a page dedicated to past Oscar winners, should you be inclined to take a trip down memory lane.
Take a look at this year's selection below.
"A thrilling tale of betrayal and revenge set against the nineteenth-century American frontier, the astonishing story of real-life trapper and frontiersman Hugh Glass driven to survive in the wilderness by one desire: revenge." 12 Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Actor in a Leading Role for Leonardo DiCaprio, Actor in a Supporting Role for Tom Hardy, Cinematography, Directing, Film Editing, Makeup and Hairstyling, Production Design, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, and Visual Effects.
"Based on a true story, Patricia Highsmith's story of romantic obsession may be one of the most important, but still largely unrecognized, novels of the twentieth century. First published in 1952 and touted as 'the novel of a love that society forbids,' the book soon became a cult classic." 6 Oscar nominations: Best Cinematography, Best Actress in a Leading Role for Cate Blanchett, Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Rooney Mara, Best Costume Design, Best Original Score, and Best Adapted Screenplay.
"After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, astronaut Mark Watney finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive – his tale is dramatic and will keep you guessing from page one." 6 Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Actor in a Leading Role for Matt Damon, Visual Effects, Sound Editing, Writing (Adapted Screenplay), Sound Mixing, Production Design
"Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service, this ground-breaking book – the inspiration for the film Spotlight – is one of the most significant works of investigative journalism in recent history. The book's revelatory findings triggered a crisis within the Vatican and around the world." 6 Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Actor in a Supporting Role for Mark Ruffalo, Actress in a Supporting Role for Rachel McAdams, Directing, Film Editing, Writing (Original Screenplay)
"From the author of 'The Blind Side' and 'Moneyball,' The Big Short tells the story of four outsiders in the world of high-finance who predict the credit and housing bubble collapse before anyone else." 5 Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Actor in a Supporting Role for Christian Bale, Directing, Writing (Adapted Screenplay), Film Editing
"Uniting fact and fiction into an original romantic vision, 'The Danish Girl' eloquently portrays the unique intimacy that defines every marriage and the remarkable story of Lili Elbe, a pioneer in transgender history, and a woman torn between loyalty to her marriage and her own ambitions and desires." 4 Oscar nominations: Best Actor in a Leading Role for Eddie Redymane, Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Alicia Vikander, Best Production Design and Best Costume Design.
"For five year-old Jack, 'Room' is his world – he knows nothing outside of those four walls, until Jack and Ma escape. Told in the inventive, funny, and poignant voice of Jack, 'Room' is a celebration of resilience — and a powerful story of a mother and son whose love lets them survive the impossible." 4 Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Actress in a Leading Role for Brie Larson, Directing, Writing (Adapted Screenplay)
"In Ireland in the 1950s, Eilis Lacey is one among many of her generation who cannot find work at home. Thus when a job is offered in America, it is clear to everyone that she must go. Leaving her family and country, Eilis heads for unfamiliar Brooklyn, and to a crowded boarding house where the landlady's intense scrutiny and the small jealousies of her fellow residents only deepen her isolation. A must-read coming-of-age tale and journey of personal growth." 3 Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Actress in a Leading Role for Saoirse Ronan, Writing (Adapted Screenplay)
"Based on more than forty interviews with Jobs conducted over two years — as well as interviews with more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues — Walter Isaacson has written a riveting story of the roller-coaster life and searingly intense personality of a creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized business and computing and inarguably changed the world." 2 Oscars nominations: Actor in a Leading Role for Michael Fassbender, Actress in a Supporting Role for Kate Winslet
"Dalton Trumbo was the central figure in the 'Hollywood Ten,' the blacklisted and jailed screenwriters during the Cold War. One of several hundred writers, directors, producers, and actors who were deprived of the opportunity to work in the motion picture industry from 1947 to 1960, he was the first to see his name on the screen again. This is the story of 'Trumbo's' exile and revival." 1 Oscar nomination: Actor in a Leading Role for Bryan Cranston

RADIOTHON: Kelly O'Brien
photo mikethewebguy
Meet Kelly O'Brien.
In December of 2010, Kelly was diagnosed with AML - a very aggressive for of Leukemia which required an even more aggressive form of treatment.
Immediately following her diagnosis Kelly needed emergency surgery to remove her spleen. Following the surgery, Kelly began treatment and soon became very, very ill. She spent several weeks in the PICU before her condition started to improve.
After only a few rounds of intense chemo, Kelly's cancer was in remission. She completed her chemo treatment in June of 2011. Despite the severity of her illness, Kelly never let it get her down. At that time, she was focused on getting better for her junior prom - a goal she achieved with her from her team at Albany Med.
Now in college at Siena, Kelly continues to share her story as her way of thanking the team at the Children's Hospital.
The Children's Hospital includes the Capital Region's ONLY pediatric intensive care unit. Approximately 1,500 children are treated annually in the PICU.

I enjoyed the lovely old home, converted into a historical society and genealogy research area. Their displays are interesting and well documented as well as easy to interpret. The staff is extremely helpful, going above and beyond the call of duty.
What a gem tucked away! This place is fantastic-- lots of cool artifacts and local history. The people who work there are friendly and love their town. Yes, it's a little corny in some places, but it's a small town. The house itself is beautiful and very historic. I would highly recommend it to anyone coming through the area.
We were just in to see if they had a book about Shippensburg but was very impressed with the research team. If you need to check geneology, info on old buildings or whatever, I bet they will have the information you need. Very organized and wish we'd had more time to really look everything over.

LUMBERTON — The Robeson County Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help in finding 27-year-old Quentin Jamale Williams, who is wanted for the murder of a Rowland man found shot to death in a car on Friday.
Maj. Anthony Thompson, chief of detectives for the Sheriff's Office, said in a statement this evening that a warrant for first-degree murder has been issued for Williams, who lives on Nevada Street in Lumberton.
Williams is wanted in connection with the shooting death of 29-year-old Taurus Locklear.
Deputies found Locklear's body at about 1 a.m. Friday after responding to a call about a suspicious vehicle. When deputies arrived, they found the vehicle parked on Woodland Avenue with the engine running and the headlights on, the statement said. Locklear was found dead inside the car.
The Sheriff's Office is asking that anyone with information about Williams' whereabouts call Lt. Forrest Obershea at 910-671-3100. Calls will be confidential, the statement said.
According to Department of Public Safety records, Williams was convicted in 2012 of manslaughter in Robeson County. He served a total of six years, 11 months for the 2009 offense.
Locklear last summer was cleared in the 2011 shooting death of Brandon Lee Hunt. The murder charge against him was dropped after his lawyers argued there was no evidence against him besides the testimony of his co-defendant, who later pleaded guilty.

Review online coupon deals carefully
Consumers who sign up for emails from daily deal websites are offered products, services, meals and travel at heavily discounted rates. The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection advises consumers to do their research on the service provider prior to clicking the purchase button.
For example, Wisconsin consumers have complained about chimney cleaning services that were purchased through Groupon from a company called Fireplace Doctor. According to Groupon, more than 270 consumers in Milwaukee purchased the deal.
Despite being a Florida-based company, Fireplace Doctor advertised its services on the website under the names "The Fireplace Doctor of Madison" and "The Fireplace Doctor of Milwaukee." Many consumers confused Fireplace Doctor with a legitimate local business with a similar name. Among complaints received by consumers who purchased the deal are claims of homes left in a filthy state after a chimney cleaning and a consumer who paid $350 but received no services.
If you use daily deal websites, follow these tips:
· Read the fine print. Make sure you read the terms of the deal and that you understand any redemption restrictions.
· Look for reliable merchants. Research the company you intend to buy from. Call the Wisconsin Consumer Protection Hotline at (800) 422-7128 to find out if we have received consumer complaints against the business.
· Is it really a deal? Verify that the offer actually is a good value by comparing prices for similar services or merchandise on other websites or by calling around to competitors. Consider the cost of tips if the deal is for a service and shipping if you are purchasing a product.
· Be aware that some companies have difficulties fulfilling their deals when demand is high, so know that you may have shipping delays or find yourself competing with other purchasers for available time slots for services and classes.
· Know your daily deal site. These sites differ in how and when they charge consumers for their purchases and how they handle refunds and returns.
· Keep your receipt and copies of any communications. If you have problems with a daily deal site or with the service provider, ask to speak with a manager about your problem. Document the interactions. If you are unable to come to a resolve and you choose to file a complaint with the Consumer Protection Bureau, this documentation will be important for your case.
For more information or to file a consumer complaint, visit datcp.wi.gov, send an e-mail to email@example.com, or call the hotline toll-free at (800) 422-7128.

Trouble in the Bin
"Come in, come in," said the Bin to the Thing –
"The Thing?"
"The Thing." – which had just been put in.
"I strenuously object to being called a 'thing'."
"Not 'a thing' – 'the Thing'."
"Does that make a difference?"
"Yes, a definite difference."
"As opposed to?"
"An indefinite article."
"I still object to being called the 'thing'."
"Unfortunately, my dear Thing, I lack the educational background and grammar to define you as anything else."
"So you are an uneducated bin."
"Indeed, I am, a poor, uneducated Bin."
"Say, rather, unconscious bin."
"Unconscious Bin?"
"Correct, dear Bin. For the Thing that separates a bin from the Bin is Consciousness."
"Conscience? I don't have one of those. I was empty until you got here."
"Consciousness, not conscience – a self-awareness, Bin."
"A self-aware wheeled Bin? Have you ever heard of such a thing?"
"You have?"
"I have what?"
"Heard of a self-aware wheeled Bin."
"Then why did you say that you had?"
"I didn't."
"You did, Thing."
"Would you please stop calling me 'Thing'? You're making me self-conscious."

AUD/USD: buy target - 0.7400
By: Dmitriy Chernovolov
- AUD/USD broke resistance zone
- Next buy target - 0.7400
AUD/USD continues to rise after the recent sharp breakout of the resistance area lying between the resistance level 0.7230 (which reversed with the daily Shooting Star the previous minor corrective wave 4 in September) and the resistance trendline of the daily down channel from the middle of June. The breakout of this resistance zone accelerated the active C-wave of the intermediate ABC correction (4) from the end of September.
AUD/USD is likely to rise further in the active C-wave toward the next buy target at the resistance level 0.7400. This level reversed the pair in August and it is also the target price calculated for the completion of the active wave (4).

A Look At The New HTML5 Based Youtube Embed Format
While originally only providing a single way to embed Youtube videos in your website (or a plugin that emulated that), Youtube has been beta testing a new way to embed videos that brings some great new features.
I have been using this method extensively here at Just-Ask-Kim.com for several months… however, this was one of those things that I wanted to spend some time testing (and give a chance to become a more well developed beta) before I introduced so there would be fewer hiccups.
If you embed videos manually (meaning copy/paste the embed code into your HTML tab) you have likely seen this option…
This method of embedding came about because of the varied types of devices we use to view videos online today (namely aimed at the rising smartphone market) and because of the desire for an HTML5 compatible embedding method.
Does Mobile Support Matter For Video Blogging & Marketing?
As you can see here in the last 30 days, approximately 2% of my visitors… 170 visits… arrived via a smart phone (and one that was not pretending to be another browser as some do).
So whats the problem? The problem is that, for those mobile visitors, any post that has a video in it, and is using the traditional embed code, simply has a blank gap in the post.
Mobile visitors to sites making use of a lot of video do not even get a message that says "We're sorry your device can not view our video"…. no, they get a blank spot.
Do I (or you) really want 170 visitors per month seeing a half blank post and leaving confused and frustrated?
Probably not…. And Google/Youtube agrees!
How The IFrame Embed Codes Help
This is the embed method that its going to be essential to switch up to as more and more mobile devices (such as the iPad) make it super easy to surf online yet do not support a full featured browser with Flash extensions etc.
Now, Youtube has begun extending on this new embed model, adding a really cool Youtube "Watch Later" feature that acts like a bookmarking system.
New IFrame Embed Codes:
(That's pronounced i-Frame)
The new codes look like this:
<iframe type="text/html" width="640″ height="385″ src="http://just-ask-kim.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/embed"VIDEO_ID" frameborder="0″>
It's also been found that this code can be modified to support a playlist within the IFrame using:
It is worth noting that not every video in the Youtube collection can be rendered in a mobile compatible format. These videos still work nicely with the IFrame embed codes but they may still not work on a mobile device. I'm sure there are a number of factors that go into this (probably including age of the video) but I have had no issues getting my own to work so far.
While it did not originally work in Google Reader, that has been fixed and the videos play just fine there now. (It would be my assumption these new embed codes work "as is" for Blogger blogs, being another Google property or will in the near future, but I have not verified that.)
Also if you're working within XHTML coding standard, iFrames will not work as they are depreciated. This means the site will not validate for strict XHTML which many consider important. (I'm staying OUT of that argument!)
This is part of why there are some challenges using these videos on WordPress and I have an upcoming post on How to use Youtube IFrame Embedded Videos on WordPress.
There have been some issues yet getting them fully working in iPhone but that support is coming and at least currently the visitor gets a video box that (while it doesn't work) at least lets them know your post wasn't blank!
Switching To IFrame Embed Type: Now Or Later?
There are two factors that have a huge impact on whether you need to worry about getting switched over sooner rather than later.
1) Are you primarily video blogging. If so you owe it to your readers to make your video viewable to all of them – AND – you can't afford the loss of traffic without other posts to help make up for a few oddities.
2) Are you blogging about blogging, tech, social media etc? In these markets, your readers are often way more web savvy and have a much higher likelihood of visiting you from their cell phone type devices.
For example, since I blog in social technology, and since I do a lot of video tutorials, and since many of my readers are small business owners I felt it was VERY important that I switched up early.
A mommy blogger on the other hand, whose primary market is other moms, likely does not have as tech savvy of a crowd. For her, the question is going to be how much of the experience of visiting her blog is dependent on being able to view video. (ie: are all of her posts in video format? or only a handful? are they the meat of the post? or only supporting content?)
The new IFrame embed codes are likely here to stay. While it will frustrate some that they are not XHTML compliant (neither are most of the Amazon embed codes) they're likely to become a very important part of many of our sites.I do not anticipate the switch over "breaking" the old embed codes at least not in the near future.
Some work arounds (or plugins) need adjusted to get them working on WordPress and I will talk more about that in another post. If you are a video blogger and/or blogging on social media this is likely something you need to be giving some thought to and/or looking into.
Give it some thought, pay attention to this upcoming change, and in the meantime enjoy the Watch Later feature!
Here's To Better Video Blogging!

Brownfield Sites Present New Opportunities
Looking to develop on a contaminated site, but frustrated by the slow response of state officials to get involved? Many states are now quasi-privatizing the process to get old brownfields cleaned up and back on the tax rolls.
Aug/Sep 09
Remediation activity picked up steam in many states in 2002, after President George W. Bush signed legislation increasing federal assistance for site remediation projects. The so-called Brownfields Law also included grants for assessment, cleanup, and related job training.
The Brownfields Law also amended the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) to authorize a CERCLA grant program establishing and enhancing state and tribal response programs. In the years since, state action to reform and streamline the remediation process has accelerated.
In North Carolina, the state moved in 2007 to initiate the Registered Environmental Consultant (REC) Program, through which a developer or "responsible party" can petition the state for approval to initiate cleanup of a site. The state signs off on the hiring of a REC and cleanup begins.
Although the certified REC essentially takes the place of state oversight, the state audits a portion of REC projects to ensure that basic state guidelines are being met. If the REC leads a successful cleanup of the site, the state awards the site a "No Further Action" status, and development of the site can begin.
In Ohio, the process is known as the Ohio Voluntary Action Program (VAP). Certified professionals, land owners, and/or developers in Ohio are first required to perform a site environmental assessment to determine which contaminants may be present on the property and how cleanup would be achieved. VAP allows certified professionals to prepare a plan to clean up the piece of property through remedial actions, along with a cost estimate. If approved, the plan can be eligible for state funding through the Clean Ohio Assistance Fund or the Clean Ohio Revitalization Fund.
Legalizing the Private Sector Project Manager
According to Newman, states have followed the lead of Massachusetts by legalizing the concept of the private-sector remediation project manager, but have left it up to the developer to get that party on board. The licensed professional then has to oversee the project in the same way the state regulator would.
"It's that individual's responsibility to make sure the program is implemented appropriately, according to the regulations," Newman said. "In most of these programs, it's not a complete substitute for the state approval. In almost all cases it's to streamline the process."
The simplification of the process, along with clearer guidelines, has spurred more developers to consider sites that need remediation, Newman added. "Fewer developers were interested in doing this 10 years ago. With codification of the cleanup program requirements, it has become more apparent what is necessary. This is not always black and white, even if you are engaged in one of these licensed programs and an LSP (Licensed Site Professional) is engaged; but the entire process has the potential to be more understandable," Newman

Ashton Carter has been confirmed by the Senate on the post of a chief of Penrtagon. Carter will be Obama's fourth defense secretary in six years, joining a line of succession that began with Robert Gates and included Leon Panetta and Hagel.
Carter will replace Chuck Hagel, the former Republican senator who had a rough relationship with Obama's insular group of national security advisers.
One of Carter's first tasks will be helping to win support for Obama's call to Congress for new authority to use force against the IS extremists. Republicans and Democrats have reacted negatively to Obama's draft proposal, criticizing both its limitations and vagueness.

There are few more volatile subjects in golf than slow play. Too much hanging around waiting to play a shot can reduce the mildest of golfers into slavering, impatient beasts.
It is a curse that affects every level of the game, from the top professionals to the most hopeless of hackers, and it has nothing to do with how good or bad you are at the game – indeed, you'd bet the hacker to nip round the course a damn sight quicker than most pros.
The fact that one is taking 68 strokes to complete a round while the other can take at least 108 has nothing to do with it. The pros are so painstaking they take meticulousness to new extremes. Their deliberations have caused the authorities to crack down on slow play in the big tournaments, and the players are all subject to having the stopwatch put on them.
At golf's much lower levels, however, policing the pace of play is not so easy, and many are the ugly arguments that frequently flare up.
The problem has inter-national dimensions, too, as anyone who has played behind Americans and Germans would confirm. But it is not always a simple matter of golfers dawdling over their game. There are many other factors that can add slow-moving frustration to your round.
For instance, our group of three in last weekend's medal were rudely castigated for causing a massive hold-up. Yet we were totally innocent.
Since we took over 300 strokes between us we couldn't claim to be the quickest trio on the course, but we did notice that the group in front of us had lost a hole and a half on the one in front by the time they had played the sixth.
Then, when they reached the par-three seventh, one of them was caught urgently short and the nearest point of relief, as it were, was a copse of trees 200 yards away.
By the time he had crept into the copse and crept out again we were approaching the tee. They promptly lost one of their tee shots, and after a fruitless search they eventually calledus through.
I had the misfortune to hit the same tree twice – don't ask – and by the time we completed the hole we must have been three holes behind the next group.
Since this very large gap was now in front of us we were regarded as the guilty laggards, and even though we made up a hole we were shouted at from all sides and even attracted a visit from a member of the match and handicap committee.
We actually took four hours and five minutes for the round, which wasn't too bad under the circumstances, but groups further down the line took 20or 30 minutes longer.
While we sat on the verandah drinking our well-earned beer we were verbally assaulted by every finishing group.
One man actually threatened never to play in a medal again, he was so distraught at the time the round had taken.
Needless to say, we became irritated at trying to explain our innocence, and the exchanges became a touch heated.
To think that one call of nature could cause so much bad feeling. If only I could think of a word to describe it all.Reuse content

This ESPN Insider column introduces Playmaker Score 2.0, a more accurate version of our system for projecting college wide receivers. The new Playmaker Score does more to account for players who go deep with a high yards per pass figure, and it adjusts based on the historical record of receivers coming out of each conference. The resulting system has A.J. Green as the top receiver in this year's draft, but wonders why Julio Jones had so few touchdowns at Alabama.

We get past the 19-1 record to explore if Matt Ryan actually is significantly better at home; and what it means for his next 20 starts there.

Hyderabad, Oct 8 (UNI) The All India Congress Committee (AICC) would seek suggestions from the public on the issues to be included in the party's election manifesto for the coming polls.
Addressing a press conference here today, Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee President D Srinivas said a Central Election Manifesto Committee, headed by External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee, had already been formed. State-level committee would be formed soon, he added.
Claiming that the Congress had implemented all the promises made in the election manifesto during 2004 elections, he reiterated that the party was committed to people's welfare.
He said the APCC would receive suggestions from the public on any issue, examine its feasibility and send it to the AICC, if relevant, to include in the manifesto.
Asked whether the party would consider to include suggestion for separate Telangana, he said all the suggestions would be examined by the party. ''Ultimately it is the central leadership which would prepare state and central election manifestos,'' he added.

February Newsletter
From Laura, 14 … Last week I was able to do several new things while Becca was gone. I know Mama didn't really have more time for me, but it was fun pretending that she did. First she helped me fix a couple of my shirts. Then we began making a three-tiered skirt for me! I am in love with the material; it is covered with lines of music! Just what ticks my clock. Later in the week I made a few things for my birthday including cake, potato chips, cinnamon rolls, and hash browns. Saturday was my birthday. My special activity was to go to a park with friends and play running games. It became quite obvious to me that I do not run enough! I was extremely sore…um…just like last year when I did this. Oh well, I had fun just the same!
We made sure to see some sights on our trip - the Alamo, Hoover Dam, and the Grand Canyon. All great places to visit! James did well on the drive. Some times were tough for him to have to be strapped in his car seat all day for several days, but he did well. John said that the length of the trip is a twentieth of James' life which is equivalent to a year in mine. That really made the trip feel long!
From Becca, 16 … I spent this week with some friends taking care of five children whose parents were out of the country adopting a child. We had a good time playing with the children, cooking, cleaning, and talking. I was grateful for the opportunity to help this family and to learn about how they run their home. I gained a greater appreciation for mothers with a bunch of young children; I think I understand their joys and frustrations a little better now.
From Seth, 19 … I have been very busy with classes and homework lately. I'm enjoying my statics class (the study of forces on stationary objects) the most.
A couple weeks ago, I finished up the book of Luke and began reading Acts, which is about the growth of the church after Christ's resurrection. The other day I read the account of Ananias and Sapphira. They tried to fool the church into thinking they were generous, but God struck them dead for their deceit. It is a sobering warning for me about the tragedy of hypocrisy and seeking to please man rather than God.
From Anna, 22 … We (Mama, Becca, and I), along with a few friends, are currently going through a parenting book called Give Them Grace, by Elyse Fitzpatrick. We are only a couple of chapters into it but it has been excellent so far. The main message is the importance of consistently pointing our children to Christ, the work He has done, and the grace He provides as their only hope. This is what defines true Christian parenting. Much of what passes for Christian parenting could just as easily be Mormon or Muslim parenting, and, as the author points out, if a Mormon can parent in exactly the way you do, your parenting isn't Christian.
One point that stood out to me was the contrast between human standards of obedience and the perfect law of God. We often settle for standards that are too low; as long as children say "please" and "thank-you," eat neatly, and play nicely with their siblings, we are satisfied. We teach them (implicitly or explicitly) that they are good people, that they have it all together, and that they don't need God's help. The problem with low standards is that they are attainable. Instead, we need to present our children with the law of God—perfect love of God and perfect love of man—a standard which no one, save Christ, has ever attained. This is the standard which will enable all of us to see our own sinfulness, the hopelessness of earning God's favor through our own efforts, and our desperate need for the grace offered by God.
From John, Megan, and James … (by Megan) In mid-January we took a 15-day road trip to the west coast. The main destination was Las Vegas, Nevada, to go to the International Builders Show. On the way, we stopped in Chandler, Arizona, to visit my grandfather, and San Diego, California, to visit a friend of mine and John's grandfather. On the way home, we stopped in Taos, New Mexico, to visit some friends of ours. The show was huge (50,000 in attendance) and there were some pretty neat products. John went to some of the classes they held and found them informative and good reminders.
We made sure to see some sights on our trip - the Alamo, Hoover Dam, and the Grand Canyon. All great places to visit! James did well on the drive. Some times were tough for him to have to be strapped in his car seat all day for several days, but he did well. John said that the length of the trip is a twentieth of James' life which is equivalent to a year in mine. That really made the trip feel long!
We made it home safely and are very glad to be home after being on the road for so long!
From Ray, Katie, Peter, Samuel, and Andrew … (by Katie) We have been busy working on selling our old house. We had a new roof put on, and a new kitchen floor installed. Our handyman friend did lots of odds and ends to make the house look better, like touching up paint, straightening the porch, and putting in a new door. Ray got it listed early last week and we received an excellent offer three days later. It's an unusual property (small house on a large lot), and we weren't sure if that would mean little interest or a lot of interest. We are thankful and excited that it looks like the house will sell quickly.
From Judith … Our local family gatherings are getting more interesting as time goes on. The three little Wade boys need to be watched pretty carefully anyway, but when James is added to the mix, even more attentiveness is called for. Andrew (the youngest Wade), though only five months old, has taken to crawling and is very intent on getting in on the action. James (John and Megan's son) will be walking soon which will give him added protection. Fortunately, there are plenty of arms to hold little ones when things get too lively. I really enjoy the uniqueness of each grandson -- no two alike! Becoming more and more tuned in to each of their personalities is a particular pleasure to me. I sometimes wonder what they'll each be like as adults.
From Gerald … It was a great joy to have all of our children and grandchildren with us to celebrate Christmas. We worshiped, ate, went caroling, played games, and sang together. We didn't nap together, but we took time out to do that also.
In January Judith and I drove to Nebraska to attend a memorial service for my aunt, my Dad's sister. Of the five siblings and their spouses, there are only one brother and three spouses remaining. This creates an increased awareness of the passing of time and of generations moving on. It is a reminder to me to use my time on this earth in ways that are pleasing to God and that are in line with his purposes.
With love from the Pedersen clan

The second half of January featured a flurry of activity with regard to New England players committing to colleges. Some of the notable commitments:
•Everett High School wide receiver/defensive back Jakarrie Washington to Wisconsin: Recruiting writers were scrambling last week when word leaked that Washington would be joining the Badgers, since he was relatively unknown outside of Massachusetts. He had no other scholarship offers at the time of his commitment. What Washington does have is speed. He has reportedly run the 40 in 4.4 seconds. He's also versatile. He caught 33 passes for 439 yards and nine touchdowns last season, when he also carried the ball 75 times for 697 yards and 15 touchdowns.
•St. John's Prep running back Alex Moore to Pennsylvania: Many thought Moore would join teammate Lucas Bavaro at Dartmouth, but he selected Penn – the first school to make him an offer. Moore, perhaps the best two-way player in Massachusetts last season, helped St. John's Prep win the EMass Division I Super Bowl and claimed the third annual ESPN Boston "Mr. Football" award, which is given annually to the best player in the state. Moore, who will likely play on the defensive side of the ball in college, made 67 tackles (five for loss), recorded four interceptions and forced four fumbles during his senior season. He also rushed for 857 yards and 14 touchdowns, and caught 20 passes for 455 yards and five touchdowns.
•Windsor (Conn.) defensive end Cole Ormsby to Connecticut: Ormsby committed to UMass in June, but switched that commitment last week. Ormsby led the state with 17 sacks last season, when Hand defeated Windsor 23-6 in the Class L championship game. He completed his senior season with 85 tackles.
Wednesday is National Signing Day, and ESPNU will have 10 hours of coverage beginning at 9 a.m. At least 17 of the nation's top uncommitted recruits are expected to announce their college decision live during the telecast. Rece Davis and Dari Nowkhah will host the coverage from Charlotte, N.C.
ESPNU will have reporters at the following schools: Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Ohio State, Texas, Texas AM and USC. The station will also air a two-hour preview show on Tuesday beginning at 5 p.m.
Nine of New England's top 10 recruits (as rated by ESPN) have verbally committed to college programs. Six of the 10 players are from Connecticut, and the four others are from Massachusetts. Here's where those players will be playing next season:
John Montelus, OG (Everett High School): Notre Dame
Maurice Hurst Jr., DT (Xaverian Brothers): Michigan
Tim Boyle, QB (Xavier): Boston College
Noel Thomas, ATH (St. Luke's): Connecticut
John Van Allen, OLB (Avon Old Farms): Harvard
Sadiq Olanrewaju, OT (Salisbury School): Virginia
Cory Jasudowich, ILB (Cheshire Academy): Connecticut
Tevin Montgomery, OT (Tabor Academy): Boston College
Jack McDonald, OG (BC High): Virginia.
Note: Thomas, who played for his father at St. Luke's in New Canaan, Conn., enrolled at UConn for the spring semester. Thomas played wide receiver, quarterback and running back in prep school, and finished his career with 4,888 yards of offense and 53 touchdowns. He is expected to play wide receiver in college.
Michael Dulac, Vermont's Gatorade Player of the Year for the 2012 season, has committed to play for Division I Bryant University. The Bulldogs compete in the Northeast Conference.
Dulac, a 6-foot-3, 270-pound lineman, led Hartford High School (White River Jct.) to three consecutive Division I championships. He started on each side of the ball in all 43 games of his high school career.
Dulac reportedly had offers from eight schools, and selected Bryant over Dartmouth.
Proctor Academy fullback/linebacker Odaine Franklyn committed to the University of New Hampshire on Thursday.
Franklin made 48 tackles last season. He also rushed for 178 yards and three touchdowns on 17 carries. Proctor finished the season with an 8-1 record.
Franklyn, who was recruited to play linebacker, was a three-year starter for White Plains (N.Y.) High School before he enrolled at Proctor Academy. He had scholarship offers from Akron and Albany coming out of high school.
Recruiting information regarding high school or prep school players in New England can be sent to Roger Brown at email@example.com.

|[jira] Commented: (DERBY-3021) Replication: Add a ReplicationSlave controller that will manage replication on the slave side
|Fri, 31 Aug 2007 07:56:30 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3021?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12524029 ] Jørgen Løland commented on DERBY-3021: -------------------------------------- When Derby takes the replication slave role for a database, it has to start with an unmodified database image received from the master. Only log (i.e. operations) generated at the master can be appended to the slave database as long as it has this role. Normally, when a database is booted, Derby goes through recovery (in the LogFactory service). Recovery performs work that cannot be done when a database is in the slave mode. As an example, recovery will undo operations from transactions that are not logged as committed. Since first booting the database and then initiate replication will not work for the slave mode, slave functionality must be added to the work performed at database boot time. As in DERBY-2977, the slave controller service will be implemented incrementally in multiple steps: 1) Add basic code to Derby so that the slave controller can be booted as a service when a "startslave" command is issued to NetworkServerControl 2-n) Incrementally add controller logic as replication patches are added to Derby. The current plan for step 1 is: * Add a slave replication property that is checked for when RawStore is booted * If RawStore finds the property during boot, it will boot the SlaveController service and then start booting the LogFactory service in such a way that LogFactory#recovery does not disrupt replication. > Replication: Add a ReplicationSlave controller that will manage replication on the slave side > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-3021 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3021 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Services > Affects Versions: 10.4.0.0 > Reporter: Jørgen Løland > Assignee: Jørgen Løland > > The replication slave role includes many tasks: > * set up a network connection with the master > * receive chunks of log from the master, and parse these into individual log records > * append log records to the local log file > * make sure that the recovery process is not allowed to access the logfile we are currently writing to > * etc > This issue is for adding a controller that will start/stop/initiate all services needed for the replication slave role. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Eric Curran 3rd in Class at 25 Hours of Thunderhill
SPEED World Challenge and GrandAm winner joins factory MER Mazda MX-5 program for the 25hr event, takes 3rd in class.
Easthampton, MA - The versatile Eric Curran added another tough event to his packed calendar, joining the 5-car factory MER Mazda MX-5 program for the 25 Hours of Thunderhill endurance event held in Northern California.
A winner of six professional sports car races in 2007, Curran carried the momentum of his strong World Challenge GT and Koni Challenge ST seasons into the 25 hours race. Joining good friends in the #89 MER MX-5, Curran knew the event held promise. "SPEED GT racer Dane Moxlow and I had spoken about racing in the 13 hour race at VIR a few weeks earlier but I had a scheduling conflict. Then we got talking about the 25hr at Thunderhill. Dane connected me with Jason Saini from MER and we put all of us together for a great chance for a class win.
With MER and Saini winning the SCCA Mazda MX-5 Cup in 2007, Curran knew he was with the right team. "MER has a great reputation with MX-5's and has won many championships, so it was a great opportunity. My first time at Thunderhill was also a blast."
"We had a great race, but had a few minor mechanical issues, would have been in contention with our sister car, the #92 MER MX-5, that won our class. We consumed tires quicker than some of the other cars because of how loose we ran the setup. We had minor shifter problem that set us back a little, and I got stuck in the pit lane out of fuel during a yellow. We lost a few laps because NASA rules say you can't fuel during a yellow. Other than the usual tire wear and brake pad replacement the MER Mazda MX5 ran beautifully. I had a great time sharing driving duties with Rob Huffmaster, Richie Hearn and Dane Moxlow."
For a driver so accustomed to delivering wins for his team, Curran is trying to embrace being anywhere other than the top step of the podium. "If I do the 25hr again, I'll be looking for a win next time out. Third place is only OK every once and a while!"
While he's focused on winning in the World Challenge sprint race format and the short endurance racing format in GrandAm, Curran is by no means new to long distance competition; he counts a Rolex 6hr win and 3rd place at the Rolex 24hr in 2000 as his proudest endurance racing achievements. An opportunity to return to the Rolex 24 is something he'd look forward to.
"I've done enough endurance racing to understand what it takes to succeed. A 25hr race is never easy, but with a good group of drivers and a car with the MX-5's reliability, all you have to focus on is getting to the finish. Endurance racing takes a different mentality vs. a sprint race. You have to be very consistent, easy on the car and still be quick. This strategy a lot of drivers have difficulty with. I really enjoy these races almost as much as sprint racing."
Sharing a car with multiple drivers is also a challenge. "It can be tough sometimes. It can get competitive, and it can get upsetting. As drivers on the same team we have to remember, we are all on the same team. Also an endurance race can't be won running full speed all the time. We each have to be consistent, respectful to the car and the other drivers. This is a team effort, and working as a great team will always give the best results."
Stay tuned for Eric Curran's 2008 racing plans to be revealed in the coming weeks.

Why Fear Death???Mature
Life is not the valuable, glittering diamond your clichés declare,
You're not worth twelve of anyone, we're all destined for death eventually,
Worm-eaten and rotting remains of us, of blood and bits of stardust.
Fragile? maybe. Unique? never.
We're all just numbers and copies, some resist and
Others bury themselves, I'm never the latter but in the end
It doesn't matter.
Explosions of hearts and bullets, a cold and worthless
"god's" glove-puppets fall, and think their "afterlife" will preserve every
Feature and colour, you don't want the chains you wore to have been
In vain.
Don't fear the things that must happen, we're all just "god's" abortions, really.
The inevitable won't leave a scar,
You're not the first, you're not the last, I'm not afraid of dying,
Death is a pillow over the face of
A life's worth of bullshit, plug him out and watch him
Drift away.

Lost Chapters: To His Grave, Part IMature
"Father! Father, come over to the range with me!" Roth ran up to Zolan excitedly. "I want to show you what I can do with the bow now," he lifted his weapon. 'The range,' as he called it, was merely a few hay bales supporting scarecrows out in a small field in the valley. He had set it up himself, and he'd used it for target practice often. But Zolan had a much heavier thought weighing on his mind.
"I'm sorry, Roth, I'm busy. There's been someone or something stealing the fish that people hang up outside their homes after curing, and I've got to decide what to do about it. I'm going to see Jarrah and ask his advice." This much was true, but Zolan knew that the problem was much more significant than a few stolen fish. He'd glimpsed it out in the woods near the moor, but it was skilled at keeping itself hidden. What was it… or he, doing here?
"Ew. Have fun with that. I can't stand the smell of that man's house." He plugged his nose before stating "that man's house," forcing a smile from Zolan.
"Hopefully I'll have it all sorted out by tomorrow, and you can show me then. Perhaps your sister would like to watch your shooting. Run along," he told his only son.
Upon entering Jarrah's hut, he was ushered to his usual seat across the table from his wizened advisor.
"I've seen worry on your face before, Zolan, but it's been quite a while since it was as blatant as it is today. What's the matter?" Jarrah posed.
"Jarrah, I don't understand why, but I think we might have a bear problem on our hands."
"A bear problem? Well, I can understand why. This valley is a great place for fishing--"
"Jarrah. A bear problem?" He read an utter lack of comprehension on the old man's face and heaved a long yet stifled breath of the strange air. "Really Jarrah, would it be so bad to use your mystic abilities just once every week, perhaps? I don't think it would hurt, and it would certainly help your senses to be sharp again."
"Certainly not. It would take more than a bear problem for me to break a vow of so many years."
"But that's just it!" Zolan had dealt with Jarrah's cloudy-headedness far too many times, and the severity of the issue cut his patience short. "They're not bears, Jarrah. I wasn't talking about bears! I was trying to maintain a certain level of discretion." He lowered his voice. "I've seen something in the woods. I only caught a glimpse, but Jarrah, there's a greywolf out there."
"It must've been Dechar," Jarrah waved his hand.
A vein began protruding from Zolan's forehead as his face reddened in frustration. "No, Jarrah, it was not Dechar. I would have known it. This one was brown, but definitely," he softened his voice again, "definitely one of the Dechi."
"What would one of them be doing out here?" Jarrah asked, finally comprehending the unusual nature of the encounter.
"Exactly. More importantly, how are we going to get rid of it? We've been fortunate all these years in that most of the clan doesn't know much of anything about greywolves, but if they were to see it, to hear it--"
"No, we can't have that. How long ago did you see it?"
"A few days. I was hoping it would leave, but Dechar has mentioned a strange smell in the moors. If he sees… it's too dangerous to let this go any further."
"I quite agree. You must kill that wolf. But unless you're willing to tell someone about this, you'll be getting no help. I would aid in the hunt, of course, but--"
"No, of course. You're far too frail." Zolan didn't notice a slightly resentful look on Jarrah's face after his comment. He was too lost in contemplation. "Eoghan's battled greywolves before, so he's always disliked and been suspicious of the 'anomaly' of Dechar. He may be the best hunter in the clan, but I can't risk trying to explain all this to him. And if I took anyone else to help me hunt a bear, that in itself might mount suspicions against me."
"Then there's nothing for it. You must go alone and end this yourself. But you already knew this, Zolan."
He sighed. "Sometimes I just have to talk it over with you to realize that there's nothing else for it."
"I know," Jarrah said. "Be careful, Zolan. You're not the young fighter you once were."
