|Rivers: Rajon Rondo may be in more pain than Game 4
|05.11.11 at 6:32 pm ET
MIAMI — Rajon Rondo will play in Game 5 despite a painful dislocated left elbow, as expected, but Celtics coach Doc Rivers said he will keep a close watch on Rondo.
"In some way I think he's in more pain than he was going into Game 4, but I think he at least has an idea on how to deal with it more," Rivers said. "We're hoping that he can give us something and if he can't then we'll have to make a decision on the floor."
Rivers is most concerned about the defensive end where he feels the Heat took advantage by forcing him into difficult positions on help defense.
"A lot of times the guy that's been in the help spot, that requires a physicality and he literally couldn't do it," Rivers said. "We thought it opened up too many driving lanes for them. We have to try a couple of things. First, keep him out of those positions if possible, and two he just has to do it, and if not then we have to make a decision."
Rivers will turn to Delonte West if that's the case who had a strong performance in Game 4. Carlos Arroyo is also active.
Shaquille O'Neal, Avery Bradley and Sasha Pavlovic are inactive for the Celtics. Even without Shaq there's no guarantee that Nenad Krstic will see more playing time. He didn't play in either of the last two games.
"We may shorten the rotation more," Rivers said. "You're always walking the fine line with Kevin [Garnett] because he's the only guy that's been on a minutes restriction the last two years. So, if we can keep his minutes to the right where he's still effective we may shorten it, but if not you may see Nenad."
For the Heat, Udonis Haslem is active again, although he may not have much of a role after his short, but eventful, stretch in his return in Game 4 when he badly missed a jumper, committed a pair of fouls and picked up a technical foul.
"The most important thing when I made the decision to activate him was because of his leadership," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said.
|Udonis Haslem fires back at Paul Pierce tweet
|11.12.10 at 4:31 pm ET
By now everyone has seen the tweet from Paul Pierce after the Celtics beat the Heat Thursday night: 'It's been a pleasure to bring my talents to south beach now on to Memphis'
The Heat saw it too and Udonis Haslem had some choice comments for Pierce after practice Friday. (The full quote comes via ESPN)
"Paul who? Man, ain't nobody paying them dudes no attention, man. You know what studio gangster is? Look up that, look up the definition of studio gangster. I'm here to play basketball. First of all, I don't tweet. So I wouldn't know what he tweeted if you guys didn't tell me.'
The definition of 'studio gangster' courtesy of Urban Dictionary:
"An insult that refers to somebody who raps about ganglife style in Hiphop. Orgin: Los Angeles late 80's slang used by street gangsters who makes fun of people in hiphop rapping about the ganglife style. "game is sold not told" meaning you live it and not speak about it. also refers to being a wannabee gangster. a person into hiphop and also intrigued by ganglifestyle and raps about it like he does it. and braggs in rap music of false situations. when in real life does none of it at all."

We camped here for the first time. We stayed in the Pine Bluffs loop on an electric site. It was shady and not too close to the neighbors. Other sites in the same loop were more open. There is a nice golf course in the park. The Pine Bluffs loop was walking distance to both the golf course and the beach area. We only stayed one night, but on a longer stay I would have like to rent a canoe or kayak to check out the lake. The only down side was that the shower had a push-button timer that only let the water run for about 45 sec. Also, there was limited hooks/shelf/bench to keep stuff dry while showering. However, the bathrooms were clean. - chris_in_pa

I knew I would not get a site with electric hookup when I showed up but I wanted to stay at this park anyhow. So I chose a site in the Sunrise section (ranger stated it was more private spots). I stayed in site 6. It was a great spot. My 39' RV fit easily and any 45' would fit as well in this spot. It was nice and shady, had a lot of privacy, and was very level. The park is a nice park, not really large, but big enough. Riding bicycles within the park is great as the roads were empty most of the time. There was a beach area and lots of families were at the park enjoying a lot of the activities. There is a dump station with potable water. The water faucets throughout the park had no hose hookup so keep that in mind if you think you'll need water. The rangers and their help were very friendly and quite helpful. I would camp here again as I'd like to stay in one of the electric sites instead of boon docking for three days like I did. - Carl & Birds

This state park is beautiful. The roads need some serious work, especially the campground roads, which are terrible. We appreciated the 50 amp electric service, which was good, but the park has made itself a short-term-stay-park for travel trailers and motor homes due to the lack of water and sewer at the sites. That is too bad. The sites are dirt, but the roads are paved with serious potholes. There is a beautiful golf course in the park and a beach-type swimming area in the lake. If the roads were repaired and water/sewer added at the sites, the park would be full all through the season. We would stay again for a couple days. - R&S

We were given a site on top of the hill for our overnight stay with a great view out our front window overlooking several ponds on the property and the Susquehanna River valley. Our gravel site required extending our front jacks almost to the point of raising the wheels off the ground, but was otherwise well laid out with easily accessible utilities. The free WiFi was adequate, but sometimes a bit erratic likely due to overloading. Our Verizon and T-Mobile signals were strong with good data speeds. Our site was quite open, making satellite reception easy. The campground owners are both very pleasant and check-in was simple and quick. We will stay here again when we're in the area. - NYDutch

We stayed here 2 nights. It started to pour rain shortly after we arrived & didn't let up until almost time for us to leave. When it did stop I noticed what a pretty view we had. Our site was not very level but managable. Hook ups were fine. WiFi was so so. No cable. We were able to get satellite signal with no problem. The water pressure wasn't so great. The host was very friendly, they were having a pot luck the night we arrived. There are a lot of permanent campers but the sites are kept up well. This was a good place for a stop over but there is nothing much anywhere around to do or see. Restaurants are almost non existent, no shopping either. When we left we headed west & the city of Binghampton about 20 miles southwest had lots of restaurants & shopping. - Connie's Co-Owner

So we ended up here quit by accident. The campground we reserved was really in the woods and had no cell service. I work from the road so I must have cell.
The park is family run and in a beautiful location. Owners were quite nice.
However, you really have to want to go here as it is not exceptionally convenient. Do NOT go up RT 26 if you are in a big-rig as there is a railroad trestle with just 12.5 feet of clearance. Call them for directions.
Large site, beautiful lake, big fish, great trail, beautiful flowers.
Sites were not exceptionally roomy but there were not many people during our visit so it wasn't an issue.
Sites are grass. Our rig is 21000 pounds and we did sink in just a bit but not a problem.
Once you arrive, you will really enjoy! - Moe and Flo are on the go

Very very nice, clean. quiet campground. Great hospitality! Hay wagon family rides, lots of fish and adorable visiting ducks! Roads were not as bad as in reviews, actually in very good condition. As expert camper, we have seen much worse roads. This campground is highly recommended. We will be returning. Thank you! - Steve Bonnie Iannone

Roads are only suited for off road vehicles. Pond unusable from June to October. New Owners are absent. I was a seasonable camper for over four years and it has only gone downhill. It's a shame as it could be a wonderful place if it was run as a business and effort was put into repairing the campground - Camping diva

Hated it. Was a very dirty and dumpy place. Trash is put in the back of a pickup near the entrance. It's the first thing you see and for shadows the rest of your stay. Pond was un-swimmable due to underwater grasses. Additional charges galore. - Joe525

This Park is located out in the Country. It's rather a long way to go for a 1 night stay. The Park itself is nice with a full grassy area to park, walk and even play golf. Owner was pleasant when I called and we checked in. Lots of Seasonals but area very clean and well kept. We would stay again if not in a rush to move on down the highway. - Arizona Traveler

This park was very nice. We only stayed 1 night. The only thing that I (we) had a problem with was with the other campers. The kids were SCREAMING will into the night (well past 10:30). If you don't mind a little hike off the freeway nice and clean place. - ubub

The best thing about this campground is the cheap golf. Other than that, we would not go back. We did not have a fire ring or a picnic table at our site. We were surrounded by seasonals who had 2 and 3 tables and were using the fire rings for flower planters. We asked the office 3 times for these items and never received any help. By day two, we finally approached a couple of the seasonal sites and asked if we could borrow a fire ring and table. We definitely felt like we were intruding. Our site was tight and unlevel and the tree branches needed cutting back. A tree branch ripped our refrigerator vent off the top of our camper upon leaving. The owner didn't even apologize. - dfugnitti

This campground is about 6 miles from I 81 over a hilly twisting country road with the last 2 miles being dirt road. However, the dirt road was in good shape. The signage from the highway is good. The roads in the campground are gravel and narrow but we were able to maneuver our 40 foot motor home to our site but we un hooked the toad first. It was a pull thru in the pavilion section where 3 sites were lined up front to back. There was a fifth wheel in front of us and a travel trailer behind us. The site was grass and gravel with a fire ring and picnic table. The hook ups were adequate. There was a cable hook up but it did not work. The Wi Fi was great. The campground was very quiet with a pretty little lake with rental paddleboats and canoes. There were playgrounds for the kids. I wouldn't try this campground with anything bigger than a 40 foot motor home. - DonnaZ2011

Too far off main highway, up steep hills, low trees in park and tight turns for unit 35' or larger. WI-FI and cell service non existent. Stayed over night and would not say again. Over priced and expect more from a Good Sam rated park. - TKMI

This campground is in a beautiful, fairly remote setting, with campsites surrounding a lake. It was very quiet and clean. I stayed for a week at the very end of the season, and the owner was very accommodating, letting me stay past the official closing date. The rate I quoted above is based on a weekly rate, including taxes, and reflects a $5 reduction for the last two nights because they turned the water off in preparation for closing for the season. I appreciated the owner doing this for me.
Most of the sites are seasonal. As far as I could tell, the nightly campers were all in one row, extremely close to each other, with no trees. That's one of the features I didn't like so much.
There was virtually no TV reception, and although I paid an extra $3 a day for the outsourced wifi, it didn't work well enough to be useable. I had to use my mifi.
Although the bathhouse was clean, I found it annoying to discover that it cost $.50 per five minutes to take a shower. After returning to my rig to get the quarters, I put $1.00 in so I could get a 10 minute shower, but it shut off after five minutes. Which meant I had to get fully out of the shower in the middle, and fumble for more quarters, to get the next 5 minutes. To add insult to injury, the timed lights in the bathroom turned off and I had to finish in complete darkness. This all seemed very petty to me. I have not run across this at any other campground.
Overall, the area of the campground around the lake and up the hill into the woods is very lovely and I had several very pleasant walks through the area. The owner was very accommodating to me. However, I didn't like the closeness of the sites, the lack of TV and wifi, and the shower system. I would probably look to stay elsewhere the next time I'm in the area. - CamperChris4

A nice CG off the interstate which makes it very quiet. Owners certainly give a lot of attention to the grounds and were welcoming upon arrival. The seasonal units surround the lake but everyone has some access for catch and release fishing. WES all worked fine. GPS takes you down a small road (Tannery) which may be a little troublesome for big rigs. Keep going straight and it goes to the campground. Wifi is available at a nominal daily charge which is unusual in this day. Would certainly stay again. Over night sites not exciting, but more than suitable for an overnight. - Team Asphalt

Great stopover. Nice level pull-through, gravel roads in great shape. Campground has lots of seasonals, and quite a few transient sites, and is immaculate. Owners are extremely friendly, guide you to your site, and RV themselves. Over the air TV from Cortland was fine. No Wi-Fo due to the rural area. Follow campground directions, not your GPS. - 2hams

Liked this campground a lot. Good utilities with W/E/S and cable. WiFi was down when we were there but was told by other campers it usually works well. Decent gravel roads and pads are worn gravel and grassy. A few sites have concrete patios but they were taken by the campers that are there for the summer. These long termers were friendly and sites kept clean. Older but clean restroom/shower facilities. Quiet even though the highway is close. Train tracks in the distance but heard only one train in the night. Easy freeway access and a gas station and doughnut shop at the exit. No one was in the office when we arrived but the office was open and we filled out a registration slip, picked a site and paid later. Pretty laid back. - utchaps

This is a hard campground for me to rate. On the one hand, it's in a lovely setting and is right off the interstate (close to the highway, but far enough that we didn't hear much/any road noise). The river running beside the campground is really pretty as well. The owner is very nice and was helpful. On the other hand, it's awfully tight to get around in a big rig, and the sites are mostly grass and sparse gravel. The steps to the restrooms are very slick when it rains - one man took a hard fall on them in the rain. The park's exit needs to have some tree trimming done, as one branch hangs down and drags along the top and side of the RV upon exiting. There's a very low telephone line hanging over the exit as well, but we cleared it with about six inches to spare (we are 12 feet, 7 inches tall, I believe). I had to look at the telephone line for 10 minutes to make sure we could exit ok. Long story short, for smaller rigs passing through the area, I highly recommend this park for a short stopover. Value-wise, it can't be beat. For big rigs, it's a tough call. I saw one other big rig have trouble getting into the campground with his towed trailer. (The trailer hit a dirt embankment and left some serious ruts in the ground.) All hookups worked well. We had 30 amp power only. Didn't try the wifi. There's an easy fuel stop within a quarter mile. - kmghmg

This was a nice quiet weekend getaway. There are nice sites along the Susquehanna River. There is not many activities for kids to do, and it's quite a drive to anywhere, but if you're looking for a quiet campground to spend the weekend, this is a nice place to go. The owners are super friendly. Quite a few seasonals who take good care of their sites. - campkristi

Nice campground with many sites along the Susquehanna River. The owners are very friendly and it looks like they have made many improvements. We were originally in site 13 but were unable to get level so I called the office and they said it was not a problem to move to site 12. The owner was worried that we wouldn't like the site because it was smaller. I do have to say that if you book in any of the sites 9-17 and the campground is busy, a larger unit may have trouble getting in or out of this area because of the trees on the road (boat ramp road and corner of site 25 on Hammond Rd). We had to go through site 9 to make the turn onto the road to exit. Luckily it was empty. This campground has many seasonals (very friendly people). Most seasonals look to be well kept and are mainly in what they call the island area (sites 71-110). The grounds are kept mowed and trimmed. Nice pool, pond, play field and boat ramp. We saw a couple Bald Eagles, hawks, squirrels and chipmunks. A great campground. Not much to do in the immediate area but Binghampton is a short ride and Scranton a little further. We would definitely return in the off season. - dall

Love camping here because it's away from EVERYTHING. Sitting by the campfire, you hear nature. With no electric sites, the only light is given by your campfires and lanterns. It's a pretty unique experience.
The roads needs to be redone, and the showers could be updated, but for those wanting to be immersed in nature, you can't beat it. - bumblehead

Great helpful staff. Activities for kids (fishing derby). Lots of privacy. Cheap wood (4 pieces for $1.00). Very limited showers. No hot water for dishes, no dish wash station so take something along. Very quiet and patrolled often. Kayak rental is reasonable. Beach is sand but water was not real clear, still better than most lakes as far as seaweed. Most of the sites are on a hill so be prepared to walk. We enjoyed ourselves you just have to be prepared for dishes & lack of shower facilities. It is a nice campground. - babybean

Bowman Lake State Park (BLSP) is billed as a "camper's paradise" on the website. I don't know about paradise, but our experience here was pretty good. Getting there - if you are coming from the north or east, your GPS receiver will take you on some unpaved back roads that aren't very trailer-friendly. Stay on NY12 southbound *past Norwich* down to Oxford, and then turn right onto NY220, then left onto Bliven-Sherman Rd., which will take you right into camp. This route is longer, but will keep you on paved roads. Also note - there is basically NO cellular reception at BLSP - with my Wilson booster, I was able to get enough signal to make an emergency call on my Verizon phone, but could not get any signal at all from AT&T. This is either a plus or a minus, depending on your perspective. On to the park itself. The campsites at BLSP are a good size for tenting and trailers up to the 25-foot range, and we had no major difficulty leveling our rig. Sites are nicely separated with forest in between them, so if you're looking for a quiet/private camping experience, this is a good place to go. Each site has a brick fireplace with a metal grate, which is handy if you like to cook on the campfire. The bathroom facilities are dated, but are very well maintained and kept clean. There is only one shower facility; we didn't use it so we can't comment on it. There were scheduled arts/crafts activities for the kids on Saturday morning, which they enjoyed. The swimming area is small but pleasant; they also offer rentals of canoes, kayaks and rowboats for a reasonable fee. No water or electricity at any of the sites, but water faucets are easily available around the park, and those with trailers or RVs can fill their freshwater tanks at the dump station. Only major gripe with the park was that the roads/parking lots are in poor repair, which meant we had to do some artful dodging as we brought our trailer in. - nextcube

Animus Vox
Spirit Voice
"Nahuel, you are falling behind!" a peal of jubilant laughter trilled through the dormant valley, climbing the forested mountain faces until it erupted from the swirling blanket of mist into cerulean sky with a final proclamation of euphoria. "And you are the chieftain's son, not I!"
The two boys tore through the dense underbrush, their feet scattering the shallow mud of a recent rainfall, calves slicked with dew and dirt. They cleared paths with flailing arms and groping fingers, running blindly but for the scarcely-trodden deer path beneath them, their journey illuminated by only the barest whispers of dawn which managed to trickle through the thick canopy. The boys wore only thin hide breechcloths and skillfully woven leggings, which they had tugged up over their knees in order to keep dry. Their deeply tanned skin was unmarred save for the pale remains of the previous day's paint along the languid lines of their shoulders, dark hair wound back in loose braids.
Nahuel was barely out of breath, his throat not yet dry from the cool mountain air. He was mere feet behind the younger boy Kuruk, lagging simply for the sake of not having to brand his arms with thorns nor scratch them with branches; instead he loped easily. He laughed along with Kuruk, the sunburn across his nose peeling as it wrinkled, breathing in sharp hisses through his bared teeth. "And you are the chieftain's nephew. Surely that must count for something?"
Kuruk began to turn, a smile curling his lips, pert contradiction on his tongue, but before Nahuel knew what was happening his cousin had fallen, foot caught in a web of stringy roots. Nahuel leapt over him, cackling madly, and continued fleet-footedly, as if no incident had taken place. He heard Kuruk clambering after him in what seemed less than a moment, slightest hope of stealth abandoned for speed, and as Nahuel began the ascent up the mountain slope the younger boy reached his side.
Soon they were both breathing heavily, chests heaving under their knotted rope necklaces while beads of sweat pricked their foreheads, each straining to parch all remains of strength from their muscles in a playful attempt to be faster than the other. The misty rainforest flew past them in a blur of vibrant color and groggy sound, and the two boys caught only glimpses of their surroundings in their peripheral vision, focused wholeheartedly on the path ahead.
The grueling slope leveled out just as Nahuel feared Kuruk truly was beginning to gain on him, and both boys were flung forward a few feet by pure momentum, neither one ready for the sudden change in steepness. The trees began to thin, underbrush flattening until it was a lush green grass that tickled Nahuel's ankles, splaying flat and wet beneath his feet. The boys found themselves on the edge a natural clearing, in which the mist was beginning to disperse, chased away by the thick black smoke that wafted from the large communal bonfire that stood regally before them.
The boys crouched in the shadow of a cluster of trees, shoving their dark, damp hair out of their faces eagerly and inching forward on the balls of their feet, knees almost brushing the ground. They took great handfuls of the emerald vines that coiled like grotesque snakes around the narrow tree trunks and tilted their heads until they could see the bonfire properly through the intricate web of twigs and leaves, not noticing when their faces were attacked savagely by the vegetation.
Men stood around the bonfire, men of the same dark-skinned race as Nahuel and Kuruk, their arms stretched towards to sky as if to embrace it, heads thrown back to bare weathered chins and solid jaws. The men wore elaborate headdresses, cloaks of woven feathers that trailed on the ground behind them for many inches before ending, and artfully laced mukluk boots that hugged their legs to their knees, where jerkin leggings took over until their skillfully painted breechcloths. They were painted with clay colored paint, faces inked with swirling designs that snaked down their necks, disappearing underneath their ceremonial cloaks. Their mouths moved in a song-like chant, their words twining together until they were an unintelligible mess of melodious tongues that seemed to rise, thrust towards the sky on the smoke.
Nahuel watched in awe, his eyes widening in anticipation with the passing of each second. He caught a glimpse of his father through the vines, standing nearly on the other side of the bonfire from their hiding place, standing the same as the other men, chest puffed out until it was mere inches from the hungry flames. His severe eyes were closed, long hair whipping about his head in the slight breeze, free now from its braid. As Nahuel saw him his father's mouth fell open in a last, wordless call and his eyes flew open with manic speed, headdress shifting as he tilted his head down before joining the other men in a dance around the bonfire.
Their bodies moved fluidly, legs propelling them forward, bent at the knees until they were mere inches from the ground, almost sitting on their heels. The men's arms were held out from their sides for balance as they moved forward, drawn in as they began to spin for momentum.
Nahuel inched forward involuntarily to get a better look at them, but in a moment he reeled back abruptly, shock sitting him forcefully down in the damp grass.
Flickering forms danced among the men, transparent and inhumanly graceful, leaping with pointed toes, twirling about the men with what seemed to Nahuel no need to touch the ground. They were silent, mouths making no sound, feet causing no disturbance, and though they seemed to be solid their images bled slightly into the surrounding air when kissed by the gentle wind. They wore jerkins and breechcloths that seemed too soft and malleable to be real, moccasins and mukluks too clean to have ever been worn, and their hair moved in ways the breeze did not prompt, hanging about their heads like ungodly halos.
As Nahuel gazed, utterly dumbstruck, his eyes snatched for a moment on a beautiful spirit and hung, transfixed on her face. She faltered in her canter, and her lips curled in a sly, eerie smile as she began to turn, her slender neck bending indolently. Nahuel watched, enthralled by her deific fluidity, his eyes falling to her vivacious lips as they soundlessly formed his name, then came gently open in a soft, cold smile.
It was then, Nahuel supposed in hindsight, that it began.

Serve Others, Find SuccessBy Anahid Modrek | September 28, 2010 | 3 comments
Research suggests that young people motivated to help others are poised for a successful career.
"Nice guys finish last," the saying goes—but not according to a recent study, which finds that serving others might be linked to personal and professional success.
The study, published in the Journal of Career Assessment, investigated the relationship between students' motivation to help others and their career paths. Researchers Ryan D. Duffy and Trisha L. Raque-Bogdan measured how motivated 265 undergraduates were to serve others and found that students with greater motivation had more optimism about their career, greater ability to adapt to new tasks and working environments, and less indecision about their careers.
What's more, their results suggest that the motivation to serve others may actually cause career optimism, not the other way around.
Duffy and Raque-Bogdan speculate that thinking about the altruistic aspects of one's work may help young adults become more motivated and focused as they approach their careers. "It may be that viewing one's career, in part, as a way to make a difference in society gives students added drive to meet their future career goals," they write.
Based on their findings, the researchers recommend that people advising young adults should encourage them to think about the "pro-social" dimension to their career choices, considering how their careers can help others in addition to themselves.
"As a primary goal for many college-level career counselors is to help students make a particular career decision," they write, "encouraging an exploration of the pro-social components of one's career may be a fruitful process."

Motivation comes from within. While this may be true but today's students are much aware of what they want to do. They search for opinions from their peers on facebook, read blogs and even look at the job sites for the potential in their chose fields. It would be nice to see a social media forum specifically for students at a regional where they can participate and exchange ideas more interactively. In my days, this was non existent.

Climate Change & Adaptation Action in Keene
Keene has a long history of climate action!
The City of Keene has passed both a Climate Action Plan (2004) and a Climate Adaptation Plan (2007), both aimed at recognizing the impact that our community has on climate change and the adaptation actions needed to secure Keene's future in the wake of a changing climate. Links to the plans are at the bottom of this page, which contains additional resources for those interested in learning about Keene's Climate Change Program.
City Council set a reduction goal from greenhouse gas emissions in our community: 10% less emissions in 2015 than in 1995. For City operations, the goal was even higher: a 20% reduction in 1995 emissions by 2015. The Planning Department recently completed a Greenhouse Gas Inventory detailing emissions from municipal operations as well as community sources in 2008. The report can be viewed by clicking here. There will be another inventory after 2015 to see whether the goals set forth by Council have been realized.
Information about ongoing projects can be seen in this brochure.
Keene Cities for Climate Protection Committee (CCP)
The CCP Committee was officially created in 2000 by the City Council. The committee's objective is to aid in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by assisting the City to implement the adopted climate action plans within the community, as well as to provide public education and outreach and advocate for changes in climate change policy at the State level.
The image to the right was taken from Confronting Climate Change in the U.S. Northeast: Science, Impact, and Solutions, a 2007 report of the Northeast Climate Impacts Assessment.
The yellow arrows track what summers are projected to feel like under a lower emissions scenario, while red arrows track projections for a higher emissions scenario. Under the higher emission scenario, by late this century residents of New Hampshire would experience a summer climate more like what occurs today in North Carolina.
In addition, a recent climate change assessment from the University of New Hampshire shows the rate of change in New Hampshire's climate has increased significantly over the last four decades, with the state getting warmer and wetter. Since 1970, New Hampshire has experienced fewer days with snow cover and earlier "ice-out" dates, an increase in annual precipitation and extreme precipitation events, and increases in both average annual maximum temperatures (by 2 degrees) and average annual minimum temperatures (by 3.2 degrees).
Ways to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
There are many ways that you can reduce your own carbon footprint. Here are just a few to start:
• Drive Less – Bicycle and walk more, or use public transportation.
• Build Green - When building or remodeling, use sustainable materials and practices.
• Buy Local Food - Buying locally produced food reduces the energy required to transport your food and it helps support local farmers and food producers, keeping money in our local economy. Join a Community Support Agriculture (CSA) farm or shop at a local farmers market or food cooperative. For more information:

• Reduce - Avoid purchasing disposable items and products with lots of packaging.
• Reuse - One person's trash is another's treasure. Share your treasures and find some of your own. Check out thrift stores, salvage yards and garage sales.
• Recycle - It really makes a difference. Make the extra effort to rinse out your spaghetti sauce jars, soup cans, and plastic soda bottles.
• Set up a backyard Compost - Composting food waste for the garden helps return valuable nutrients to the soil. The City of Keene recycling center sells compost bins to Keene residents for a discounted price.
• Buy Sustainable Products - Learn about and purchase sustainable products. Check out www.thegreenguide.com

Sterling agrees to Clippers sale, will drop NBA lawsuit
By Eric Kelsey
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Embattled Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling has agreed to sell the team for $2 billion and will drop his lawsuit against the National Basketball Association, his lawyer Maxwell Blecher said on Wednesday, five weeks after taped racist remarks Sterling made caused the NBA to ban him for life.
Sterling, 80, sued the league and commissioner Adam Silver for at least $1 billion in damages last week at the same time as the NBA tentatively approved a deal his estranged wife had struck to sell the franchise to former Microsoft Corp chief executive Steve Ballmer for an NBA record price of $2 billion.
Sterling, who has owned the Clippers for 33 years, brought shame on the league and delivered the first crisis of Silver's tenure, which began in February.
Silver banished Sterling and fined him $2.5 million for the comments after the taped racist remarks were leaked to the media in April while the Clippers were playing in the NBA playoffs.
The comments caused sponsors to sever ties with the team and players considered a boycott.
Sterling has said that his remarks to a "lover" about not being photographed with black people or bringing them to Clippers games were a part of a jealous quarrel that was illegally recorded under California law.
Most of the players in the NBA are black.
In the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, Sterling accuses the NBA and Silver of breach of contract, antitrust violations, among others. Continued...

Musical settings of The Seven Last Words of Christ
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Seven Last Words of Christ refers to the seven short phrases uttered by Jesus on the cross, as gathered from the four Christian Gospels. The Crucifixion of Jesus has served as inspiration to a great many visual artists and composers over the centuries. In particular, at least 16 composers have written musical settings of the Seven Last Words, for various combinations of voice and/or instruments.[1]
The best known of these settings is probably the instrumental setting by Joseph Haydn (see below), who produced two different arrangements of his own work—one of them for choir—and approved a third.

Earlier this week, Red Bull Global Rallycross had its media day and revealed a series of announcements. Townsend Bell will be part of NBC's announce team for the series, and filed this report from Los Angeles following some laps with Rhys Millen's Hyundai. Then, he was able to do some laps of his own.
Castroneves is second in Indy 500, but jumps to No. 1 in IndyCar standings
Second-place may be the first loser, but for Helio Castroneves, finishing second in Sunday's 101st Running of the Indianapolis 500 left him with a very nice consolation prize:
He's now No. 1 in the Verizon IndyCar Series standings.
Castroneves took over the top spot in the IndyCar rankings from Team Penske teammate Simon Pagenaud, who dropped to a three-way tie for second place with Sunday's 500 race winner Takuma Sato and 500 pole-sitter Scott Dixon, who was involved in a terrible crash about one-fourth of the way through the race.
Castroneves has 249 points, while Pagenaud, Sato and Dixon are all 15 points back with 234 points each.
Last year's Indy 500 winner, Alexander Rossi, is fifth in the standings with 190 points.
Tony Kanaan, who finished fifth in Sunday's race, is sixth in the IndyCar standings with 188 points. Rounding out the top-10 are teammates Will Power and Josef Newgarden, who are both tied with 186 points.
IndyCar rookie Ed Jones, who finished a very strong third in the 500, is ninth in the rankings with 185 points, and James Hinchcliffe is 10th with 170 points.
With third-place showing, Ed Jones is highest-finishing Indy 500 rookie
Verizon IndyCar Series rookie Ed Jones had been overshadowed much of the Month of May by Fernando Alonso, a fellow rookie at the 101st Indianapolis 500 Presented by PennGrade Motor Oil. With Alonso garnering much of the media attention, Jones was somewhat of a forgotten man.
However, he had been impressive in the opening rounds of the 2017 season, scoring consecutive top tens to begin the year, and he was quick during practice at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway before eventually qualifying 11th.
He was then vaulted into the role of team leader on the driving front after Sebastien Bourdais' accident and subsequent injury, but Jones remained overshadowed in the rookie battle by the aforementioned Alonso.
And, while Alonso led laps and ran amongst the leaders for most of Sunday's Indianapolis 500, it was Jones who emerged as the best-finishing rookie at race's end, with strategy and timely cautions putting him in position to do so even before Alonso fell out with an engine failure.
However, the race took a turn for the chaotic for the Dale Coyne Racing driver on lap 52 following Scott Dixon's horrifying crash, one which saw Jones hit debris and suffer damage. "It damaged the floor and also the rear wing. We had to change the rear wing. That sent me to the back of the field. We had to claw our way back up again," he said of the incident.
He also revealed that the car had wing damage in the final stint, which created several issues for the 22-year-old driver. "I actually damaged my front wing, had a big hole in it. My legs got pretty cold, to be honest. I had wind blowing into them like crazy. (It) also created a lot of drag," he explained.
Dating back to his days in the Indy Lights Presented by Cooper Tires, Jones now has five podium finishes on ovals. But, victory continues to allude him, a fact that disappointed him in spite of an otherwise strong performance. "I've had five podiums or five top 3's on ovals now and I haven't won one. It's really frustrating not to get one. I'm working my hardest to get it the next time," he asserted.
However, Jones earned the praise of his peers, most notably from Helio Castroneves, who was sure to compliment him during the post-race press conference. "I have to say he did a very good job. When we ran side-by-side, he was very smart," Castroneves said of Jones' performance.
Jones' third place is his best career IndyCar finish to date and his first career podium in the series. His prior best was a sixth-place finish in April's Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach.
Team Penske has bittersweet overall finish in Indianapolis 500
Even though it had five drivers – just under one-seventh of the 33 cars in the field – Team Penske had a bittersweet overall showing in Sunday's Indianapolis 500.
Celebrating its 51st season in motorsports, Team Penske was searching to extend its record 16 wins in the Greatest Spectacle In Racing, but came up real short — as well as not so short.
The good aspect was Helio Castroneves finishing a close second to race winner Takuma Sato. Castroneves came so close to winning a fourth time at Indianapolis, which would have tied one of the most elite records in motorsports history shared by A.J. Foyt, Al Unser and Rick Mears.
Instead, Castroneves finished second for the third time in his career at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
"It's tough to accept," Castroneves said. "I did my best. I really pushed it. The guys did a phenomenal job. We drove our heart, no question.
"The good news, sounds like we're leading the points (he leads teammate Simon Pagenaud — who is also tied with 500 winner Takuma Sato and 500 polesitter Scott Dixon — by a 245 to 234 point margin. Hey, there is always a positive note. I think that it is very positive.
"Yes, finishing second again sucks. So close to get the fourth. I really am trying. I will not give up this dream. I know it's going to happen."
Castroneves almost ran head-on into disaster on Lap 53, when Jay Howard and Scott Dixon crashed. Somehow, Castroneves was able to sail under Dixon, whose car went airborne after contact with Howard's car, and continued on.
"What can I say? My race was pretty adventurous," Castroneves said with a smile. "We have a lot of things. We started from the back. I knew I had a good balance. Then we went to the front about lap 50, then were in the top 10.
"Unfortunately with the accident with Dixon and (Howard), we broke a winglet and broke the front wing because it went off the track. I don't know how to be honest. It was a good save, I have to say that. This place brings the best out of me. It was pretty good."
Sato passed Castroneves for the lead heading into Lap 196. Castroneves rallied to pull even with Sato with three laps to go, but couldn't complete the pass.
"I tried everything I could with three laps to go, two laps to go," Castroneves said. "I went outside. Unfortunately my tires were overshot a little bit. I would have ended up in the wall. I thought it was good timing because I would try to make a move again. Man, he just took off and that's it. That was my last chance.
"Really disappointed for the fans, for obviously my team. They gave me a great car. I did everything I could, trust me, everything I could. Unfortunately, second place is the best for us today."
Castroneves said he'll once again go for No. 4 in 2018: "Sorry, next year, then."
Also having a good day was former 500 champ Juan Pablo Montoya, who finished sixth in a one-off Verizon IndyCar Series start.
"Our Fitzgerald Glider Kits Chevy was good," Montoya said. "We had a problem there in the beginning when we ran out of gas in Turn 3. We should have had another half-gallon in the car. It put is in a tough position because we lost a lot of positions there. From there to come back to where we finished was great. We ran 12th or 13th most of the day and then the car was really good at the end of the race. The balance just wasn't there. Then I told the guys on the last stop, let's take swing and we did and the car came to life. I would have liked to have had some more laps at the end."
Defending IndyCar champion Simon Pagenaud finished 14th.
"It wasn't the finish we wanted today for the Menards Chevrolet team," Pageaud said. "But for the big picture it was a decent day. We're still in that top group in points as we head to Detroit. That's a place that suits us pretty well. The (Indianapolis) 500 remains a goal and we'll take another shot at it next year."
Then came the bittersweet aspect. Two drivers that many felt would win Sunday – Will Power and the latest addition to Team Penske, Josef Newgarden – were involved in the same wreck late in the race that ended their days.
Newgarden finished 20th, while Power finished 23rd, both collected in a late race wreck.
"It was an OK day," Newgarden said. "We just got caught up in that wreck there at the end. That hurt us. When we were up front we were good. We seemed to keep racing ourselves toward the front of the field. Then we would just get dropped back by a couple of issues. If we would have been up front the whole time, I think we could have finished in the top five. We performed really well today, things just didn't go out way."
Added Power, "I'm not sure what happened out there. All I know that I was sliding backward. It was an up and down day for the Verizon Chevy. We were able to stick our nose in there a few times and we were stuck back in the back other times. Then, we got caught up in that deal at the end that ended our day. We'll move on to Detroit. The thing about this race is that we get to turn the page pretty quickly."
Takuma Sato captures 101st Indianapolis 500
INDIANAPOLIS – Similar to last year, an Andretti Autosport driver that wasn't the most discussed or fastest has won the Indianapolis 500.
But like Alexander Rossi last year, Takuma Sato flew under-the-radar all month, then delivered the goods when it mattered most.
After his best month yet at Indianapolis, bravery and tenacity has won Sato the 2017 101st Indianapolis 500 presented by PennGrade Motor Oil, driving the No. 26 Ruoff Home Mortgage Honda for Andretti Autosport.
And for Helio Castroneves, finishing second leaves him again, one spot short of his elusive fourth victory with Team Penske in the No. 3 Shell Fuel Rewards Chevrolet
Rookie Ed Jones was third ahead of Max Chilton, the former Carlin teammates in Indy Lights Presented by Cooper Tires showing impressively well in their first and second '500s with Dale Coyne Racing and Chip Ganassi Racing, respectively. Tony Kanaan completed the top five for Ganassi.
Meanwhile Fernando Alonso had an engine issue that took him out from a star drive, and Scott Dixon survived a crazy accident early on despite going airborne.
This was a crazy race because it had 11 yellow flag periods and 15 different leaders, a record.
Sato started fourth and was one of four Andretti Autosport cars that seemed poised to contend for the race win, as he, Alexander Rossi, Ryan Hunter-Reay and Fernando Alonso all led – with Hunter-Reay 28 laps, Alonso 27, Rossi 23 and Sato 17 – for a total of 95 laps.
One of the race's primary contenders was out early, when on Lap 53, polesitter Dixon was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time at Turn 1. After fighting an ill-handling race car in his first stint, Dixon came upon Jay Howard's slowing and crashing car in Turn 1. Dixon dove low, but unfortunately went right into Howard's path. That launched the New Zealander airborne in a terrifying accident. While he was seen limping later in the day, Dixon had been checked, cleared and released after the biggest crash of his career.
A red flag followed for repairs to the catch-fencing, which had a hole torn in it as a result of the impact. Alonso was leading at the time of the red flag, which lasted 19 minutes.
The crash set in motion a crazy chain of events that seemed to follow the rest of the day, and saw the phrase "yellows breed yellows" influence the race.
Alonso was clearly proving his race craft in his first oval race, racing against Rossi, Sato, Hunter-Reay and others – initially Ed Carpenter and JR Hildebrand for Ed Carpenter Racing – and later the Team Penske contingent, which was trying to move forward from poor qualifying positions.
A crash that took out both Conor Daly and Jack Harvey in separate incidents also brought out the third yellow, second actual yellow following a yellow continuation after the restart. A separate debris yellow from Laps 81 to 83 meant there were four within a 30-lap window on Laps 53 to 83 after going the first 53 laps at caution-free pace of more than 219 mph.
Within this segment, Castroneves had been issued a drive-through penalty on Lap 75 for jumping a restart, which knocked him back outside the top 20. It would also set the stage for his comeback.
Indeed by the halfway mark, Castroneves had the overall lead from Hunter-Reay, Rossi, Alonso, Kanaan and Graham Rahal, withle two different strategy plays emerging – Chilton in seventh and Will Power in ninth were not running the same strategy as the leaders.
There seemed a chance at the halfway mark that these two could run the final 100 laps on just two stops and not the three expected by others. But a rash of yellows from Lap 122 onwards changed that play.
After the stops near the halfway point of the race, on Lap 115, Hunter-Reay led Rossi, Alonso, Castroneves, Power, Josef Newgarden, Graham Rahal, Tony Kanaan, Chilton and Sato.
However for the second straight year it was Buddy Lazier who caused a yellow – this time a crash on Lap 128 – that would change the complexion of the race. Lazier was the only driver transported to a hospital on the day, complaining of chest pains.
Chilton went for another off-strategy play here along with Hildebrand, Simon Pagenaud, Marco Andretti, Charlie Kimball, Jones, James Davison (started last as Sebastien Bourdais' replacement) and Pippa Mann. It took the one fewer stop strategy out of play.
One thing that hadn't yet entered the equation was reliability, the pre-race storyline, as Honda's engines were under the microscope.
And suddenly on Lap 137, the first blew. Hunter-Reay was the first one to go, after running second having just lost the lead to Alonso, and that took him out of the race.
On Lap 167, a second pivotal engine issue occurred – this time Kimball's had some smoke, and it brought out the ninth caution of the race. Crucially, it put everyone on the same strategy to the end after a period when he, Chilton, Davison and Hildebrand all took turns leading, Davison having completed a 33rd-to-first run at that stage.
Chilton had pitted just before the yellow but didn't lose a lap. As he had enough fuel to finish, he then leap-frogged back to the lead when others pitted under the caution, and he held off several advances from his competitors when racing resumed.
Alonso's star debut came to an end on Lap 180, almost poetically, as a Honda-powered McLaren entry, with the traditionally star-crossed Andretti name at Indianapolis, slowed to a halt with smoke out of the back on the front straight. Gone too were his win chances, leaving him an unrepresentative 24th.
After this restart came another crash. This time, it saw Davison's star run come to an end after contact with Servia, doing his typically under-the-radar drive through the field for Rahal – and second on the same strategy to Castroneves – while Power and Hinchcliffe were also caught up. Newgarden hit the wall but continued.
Sato, who'd been good but not quite delivered his standard "no attack, no chance" style, would restart second on Lap 189 before unleashing "vintage Takuma" from there.
A ballsy pass around the outside of Castroneves and Jones had moved Sato up to second and in position to attack Chilton on the final restart.
With a power advantage still to play in the Honda vs. Chevrolet battle, Castroneves' car was no match for Sato's, and the Japanese driver moved past Castroneves on the outside into Turn 1 on Lap 195.
The drama from there was whether Castroneves could counter. Castroneves had a run with two laps to go, but Sato defended against him on the inside.
From there his last best chance was gone, and Sato had his second career IndyCar win – albeit a slightly bigger one than his first and thus far only prior victory at Long Beach in 2013, then driving for A.J. Foyt Racing. He also started fourth in that race, as he did today.
Castroneves' runner-up here after starting in 19th adds to past missed opportunities in 2014, losing to Hunter-Reay (who started 19th) and in 2003, losing to then-teammate Gil de Ferran. One wonders how many more opportunities he'll have to get number four.
In finishing third, Jones actually didn't lead a lap – he ran as high as second – and came up two spots short of emulating Rossi as a rookie winner from 11th on the grid in the No. 19 Boy Scouts of America Honda. The Indy Lights champion capped off a roller coaster month for Dale Coyne Racing with the team's best ever Indy 500 finish, which beat Alex Lloyd's fourth place in 2010. Jones is the first driver from the United Arab Emirates to race at Indy, although he's a Dubai-based Brit who now lives in Miami.
Chilton led the most laps – 50 – which were the first he led all year and his first since leading just two at Iowa Speedway last year, his only prior laps led in IndyCar. The driver of the No. 8 Gallagher Honda has now delivered back-to-back career best results after also coming seventh at the INDYCAR Grand Prix on the IMS road course, although one must think this will sting after a career drive.
Kanaan was a somewhat under-the-radar fifth, leading 22 laps early but never making it back to the point in the No. 10 NTT Data Honda after Lap 27.
In sixth and never really a factor was Juan Pablo Montoya, in the fifth Penske entry, ahead of Rossi, who fell back with a similar fuel hose issue that affected him last year too. Marco Andretti was an anonymous eighth, Gabby Chaves an excellent and career-best equaling ninth in his first start of 2017 and Harding Racing's debut, after starting 25th, while Carlos Munoz avoided the trouble for Foyt and brought that car home in 10th after starting 24th.
A heavy day of attrition meant that only 18 of the 33 starters finished. The finishers through from 11 to 17 were Carpenter, Rahal, Mikhail Aleshin, Simon Pagenaud, Sebastian Saavedra, Hildebrand, Pippa Mann and Spencer Pigot. Carpenter lost a front wing late in the day. Hildebrand fell back late after a drive-through penalty for jumping the second-to-last restart. Both Juncos Racing entries finished their debuts (Saavedra in 15th and Pigot in 18th), and Mann finished her seventh straight 500-mile race start in IndyCar, dating to 2011 (she skipped the 2012 race, bu has raced in every Indy 500 since 2013).
Unofficial results are below.

Spring game: 6 p.m. ET Saturday on CSS and ESPN3.com
Questions answered: Nobody questioned how much of an athlete quarterback Chris Relf was last season. However, his ability to match his feet with his arm was a bit of a concern until the end of the season, when he passed for more than 200 yards in the final three games with six touchdown passes and one interception. This spring, Relf has continued where he left off, and has cemented himself as the Bulldogs starting quarterback. He looked as confident as ever this spring and used his arm just as much as his feet to help Mississippi State's offense shine during scrimmages this spring. Assisting Relf is a slew of quality receivers. Besides star Chad Bumphis, the Bulldogs got a ton of production from Arceto Clark, who moved from cornerback, and have reliable targets in Chris Smith and Ricco Sanders. The Bulldogs showed they could run the ball last season, but now it appears they can throw the ball as well.
Questions unanswered: The Bulldogs had the tough task of replacing three starting linebackers this spring. While the defense did well this spring under new coordinator Chris Wilson, it won't be known how the Bulldogs' new linebackers will fair until the season gets underway. Cameron Lawrence, who entered the spring as a starter, was the most productive at the position last year, so the rest of the unit should lean on him. Fellow starters Brandon Wilson and Chris Hughes combined for 30 total tackles last season. The Bulldogs will get boost at linebacker this summer when Brandon Maye, a three-year starter at Clemson, transfers in. The Bulldogs entered the spring looking to replace Pernell McPhee at defensive end. So far, no one has truly emerged, but rising juniors Trevor Stigers and Shane McCardell are battling for the spot McPhee left. The two combined for 23 tackles, including 6.5 tackles for loss
Spring stars: Running back Vick Ballard picked up where he left off last season, having a very nice spring. While Ballard is the unquestioned starter at running back, LaDarius Perkins has helped with the distribution of carries this spring. He's a speedier and shiftier back, who adds a different dimension to the position. Bumphis has continued to be the most consistent receiver the Bulldogs have, but Clark really impressed during scrimmages this spring and should be a very reliable No. 2 for Relf this fall. Defensive back Corey Broomfield continues to be a threat. He scored a touchdown, forced a fumble and recorded a sack in a scrimmage this spring. Defensive end Sean Ferguson isn't McPhee, but he held his own at defensive this spring. Now, finding someone to play opposite him is the next step.
Of note: Tight end Marcus Green was limited after partially tearing the ACL and spraining the MCL in his right knee last season in the second game. … Despite breaking his collarbone and missing last season's Gator Bowl, Bumphis was full go this spring. … Sophomore Baker Swedenburg has done well this spring at punter after taking over for last season's starter Heath Hutchins. … Though Johnthan Banks has gotten work at safety, coach Dan Mullen said that move might not be permanent. … Defensive back Jamerson Love (hand) and offensive lineman Sam Watts (leg) both suffered injuries late this spring. Safety Nickoe Whitley (knee) didn't practice this week and could miss Saturday's game.

The horse pulled the dragon down in front of us. Without even thinking I swung over, leaving the other animals behind trying to figure out how to get over. The dragon was moaning, but I was sure it would soon be off the ground and looking to attack the horse. So now all I had to do was be second, and then the dragon might take care of first for me. I could actually win this thing.
It's just me and the horse.

I have a 3 storey house built in 2000. My bathroom is on the 3rd floor and I noticed mushrooms growing out of the skirting alongside the toilet. We have lifted the lino, removed the skirting and the tiled frame enclosing the pipework.There was a lot more ground damp, black soot on the walls and more mushrooms. Much wetter below the bend on the overflow pipe which we have tightened. Do we need to do more?

Later On that Morning:
John and Denise were laughing as they left the department store. John wrapped his hands around her waist and held her tightly. She placed the bag in her right hand as he whispered in her ear, "Baby, I'm still surprised that you made us, get up EXTRA early just to come out to get new clothes!"
She timidly responded, "Well I left all my clothes in Eve's car and I didn't want to wear yesterday's clothes." She pushed him and ran a few feet away from him. She turned around as the wind blew in her face and said: "And plus, you owed me a shopping trip in Boston anyway!"
John took off running after her as she ran through the streets of Boston. She noticed the street light turn red, so she stopped at the corner. He caught up to her with a kiss. After a few seconds later, they released from the kiss.
"I've missed your lips... they never tasted so good." John smiled.
"HA! Didn't you have enough of me last night?" Denise jokingly responded.
"Naw! I need to catch up for this weekend!"
He said as he grabbed her again and intimately kissed her again. They were interrupted by a car honking at them.
"Yo Bro!" Scott yelled from his car.
John let go of Denise, who needed to catch her breathe. John walked up to Scott's passengers side door and shook his hand.
John replied, "Yo! What up, homie?!"
Scott smiled, "I'm glad to see you guys still having fun in this great city! I thought you were leaving last night?!"
Denise politely waved to Scott as John finished, "Yea, we had an emergency last night, so we should be leaving..." He looked at Denise and she looked at him back. John finished, "Um... either today or tom-m-morrow... I think...?"
"Is everything good, bro?" Scott replied.
John re-assured him, "Yeah, everything is better now. Those string of burgulars happening around the neighborhood..."
"They caught them!"
"Yeah, we might know them."
"Yo bro! That's crazy! And real shiesty if we know them. No suh!"
They both laughed. Denise looked down at her text messages.
Scott laughed, "Ya girl looking good in them dungarees..."
John turned back and looked at Denise who wasn't paying attention. Denise was wearing dark denim jeans, with a lavender sheer blouse with the matching jean jacket.
John smiled, "she do look good in them jeans. Well in the whole damn outfit."
Scott laughed, "the whole neighborhood talking about you and this girl."
John replied, "how?"
Scott laughed, "you'll get mad if I tell you. So just let me drive you and ya girl to your car, and I'll explain everything."
John signal for Denise to get into the car and Scott drove off.

Paul McBride, an expert on engines, retired after almost 40 years with Lycoming.
Q: I recently saw your article about Narrow Deck vs. Wide Deck and believe you are just the person to ask this question. A fellow AMT has been field overhauling his Lycoming O-360A1A engine. It is a "first run engine" out of an early Mooney. It is a Narrow Deck engine. (Yes, I know it is way past the 12 year time frame).
Here is the issue: The engine has small "stepped" dowel pins in the case half main bearing saddles (where the main bearings are installed). The removed bearings (original from factory) have small holes to match the small dowel pins. The new bearings (except for the forward {long} bearing) have much larger holes for the dowel pins.
