I remember a time when castles had dungeons that were just dungeons, not a breeding ground for ghosts that only attack when you've got your back to them.
I remember a time when you could find cute animals at the pet shop. You didn't have to put your turbo shoes on and jump on a your nemesis's robot henchman to unlock them.
I remember a time when coins were used as bus fair or to buy a sodas and were not tallied as a way of measuring someone's performance at any given stage of his life.
I remember a time when monkeys lived in the jungle, barrels stayed in the cellar, and ladders were on the tops of maintenance vans, and very rarely did the three interact to create a hellishly stressful day for a plumber.
I remember a time when a snake could eat and eat and eat and only grow fatter and not so impossibly long as to have no choice but to eat its own tail.

The universal experience for most high school students is learning to drive and getting their driver's license. Add breathlessly plotted romance and an accident and you have a poignant and realistic novel. Remy Martin prays to the God of Driver's Education that she will get to drive today. She doesn't know where she's going, but she knows one thing . . . she is going to get there fast. Morgan Campbell had been standing on the threshold of 16 and getting his driver's license ever since he could remember. But deep into the first crush of his life, thinking of nothing but girls, Morgan forgot what driving was all about. This poignant novel about responsibility and consequences is as convincing as it is irresistible.

The S.C. Natural Resources Board recently approved migratory bird-hunting seasons for mourning doves, marsh hens (rails), woodcock, snipe, moorhens, purple gallinules and early seasons for Canada geese and teal.
The S.C. Natural Resources Board set the 2005-2006 hunting seasons for these migratory game birds at its July 15 meeting in Charleston. The seasons must still meet approval by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and be published in the "Federal Register" in order to become final. For more information, call the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Columbia office at (803) 734-3886.
The 2005-2006 mourning dove season in South Carolina is Sept. 3-5 (noon until sunset); Sept. 6 to Oct. 8; Nov. 19-26; and Dec. 21 to Jan. 15.

By Sarwar Kashani, IANS,
Sanya (China) : Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – the BRICS group of fastest growing economies – Thursday called for a revamp in the global monetary system and signed a pact to use their own currencies instead of US dollar in issuing credit or grants to each other.
The path-breaking agreement was signed at the 3rd BRICS summit here attended by Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Presidents Hu Jintao of China, Dilma Rousseff of Brazil, Dmitry Medvedev of Russia and Jacob Zuma of South Africa.
"Our designated banks have signed a framework agreement on financial cooperation which envisages grant of credit in local currencies and cooperation in capital markets and other financial services," economist turned politician Manmohan Singh told the media with other BRICS leaders.
But the agreement is confined to credit and not trade. BRICS economies hold 40 percent of the world's currency reserves, the majority of which is still in US dollars.
Under a tight security blanket, the BRICS summit was held in the coastal city of Sanya in China's Hainan island following which the leaders jointly addressed the media but did not take questions from journalists.
In their restricted session, the Indian prime minister and four presidents deliberated on the international situation and the financial, development, climate and security issues.
Hu said the world economy was undergoing profound and complex changes. "The era demands that the BRICS countries strengthen dialogue and cooperation (in this direction)."
Manmohan Singh, who also addressed the plenary session of the summit, said: "The quality and the durability of the global economic recovery process depends to a great measure on how the BRICS economies perform."
The grouping is expected to have a healthy global presence in the future as its member-countries are projected to contribute 48 percent to the global economy in the next decade.
At present they account for 40 percent of the world's population and 20 percent of the global Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
Calling for stronger regulation in commodity derivatives to arrest volatility in food and energy prices, the leaders said the rising inflation was risking the recovery of the world economy post the 2008 downturn.
"Recognizing that the international financial crisis has exposed the inadequacies and deficiencies of the existing international monetary and financial system, we support the reform and improvement of the international monetary system, with a broad-based international reserve currency system providing stability and certainty," they said in a joint declaration.
But they didn't specifically mention any currency like the US dollar or euro — to be replaced as international trading medium.
Reserve currency, held in significant quantities by governments and institutions as part of their foreign exchange reserves, is also the international pricing currency for products traded on global market and commodities such as energy products or bullion.
Manbeer Singh, secretary (economic relations) in the Indian ministry of external affairs, said the agreement allowing the use of own currencies for credit was "not to diminish the dollar".
"We want a broad-based international reserve currency system and change in the rubris of the international monetary and economic governance," he told Indian journalists.
He said this "should not be construed" as a replacement of dollar. "We are looking for a substitute, not an alternative."
They also pledged to jointly work on global political issues, with Manmohan Singh stressing that reform and expansion of the UN was necessary to make it truly representative.
The joint statement also called the Sanya declaration reaffirmed the need for a comprehensive reform of the UN, including its Security Council, to make it "more effective, efficient and representative, so that it can deal with today's global challenges more successfully".
The five countries coincidentally are now members of the UN Security Council. China and Russia are permanent and other three, including India, are non-permanent members.
Significantly, China and Russia, in the joint declaration, reiterated "the importance they attach to the status of India, Brazil and South Africa in international affairs, and understand and support their aspiration to play a greater role in the UN".

I remember how hard it was to find reliable information on Dr. Shah during my preliminary research, so I hope this review can help others during such a critical and uncertain time. Where do I begin? I guess I could start with why I decided to change my nose. Somewhat wide and long with a little hump, it was never my favorite part about me. So when I got the opportunity to change it in time for my upcoming wedding, I took it! I met with two other plastic surgeons before deciding on Dr. Shah -- one in Chicago and another big shot doc in LA. Dr. Shah was the only one who took the time to really listen to my concerns, patiently answer endless my questions and discuss the procedure in such depth to ensure I was completely comfortable moving forward.
Over the course of THREE consultations, he scrutinized my nose meticulously and worked with me to generate multiple digital morphs. The time he took with me showed not only his attention to detail, but his commitment to his patients and achieving the best possible outcomes. After the third consultation, I was convinced this was the doctor for me and booked my surgery for open rhinoplasty on February 7th.
SURGERY - I underwent open rhinoplasty on February 7th. The surgery was originally expected to take no longer than 2 hours, but because my nose proved more deviated than anticipated, it went to 3 hours. POST-OP It's been 11 days since my surgery and 4 days since the split came off.
Here's a bit about my post-op experience thus far, starting with recovery. RECOVERY (DAYS 1-7) Like other patients, I'd say I felt more "uncomfortable" than in pain. Just like I had a really bad cold and a migraine. Day One was ok; I threw up while leaving the surgery center but fared well at home. Then, Day Two and Three came. Those were the worst. I just sat in my recliner falling in and out of consciousness while the swelling got worse and worse. I was breathing out of my parched mouth, sitting in darkness, not able to talk, go on the Internet or watch TV, just waiting for my boyfriend to bring me up an ice pack every 20 minutes. Because of the mouth breathing, I had a very tough time sleeping and would wake up every 40 minutes either needing to pee or feeling like my tongue was going to crack in half. I was miserable.
But from Day Four on, things got easier and easier. I got more self-sufficient, could start eating more normal foods and even started sleeping uninterrupted. RECOVERY TIPS: - Live in a recliner for the next week. This keeps your head above your heart, thus reducing any swelling. - Have a glass of water WITH A BENDY STRAW next to you at all times. Mouth breathing makes your throat extremely dry. - Have a helper with you for the first three days, as you most likely will not feel like moving. My boyfriend brought me all my food, walked me to and from the bathroom, and made sure I got my ice packs and medications on time. He's the best. - Try to take it easy and not to freak out about what your nose/incisions look like. It's so premature, it's not worth the worry. - Use frozen peas in a surgical glove as a cold pack - Have ChapStick or Aquaphor on you at all times - Be prepared to sleep in a recliner for a week. It sucks. -
Sustenance: tons of mashed potatoes, apple sauce, Jello, pasta without sauce, SHAMROCK SHAKES, and ... sliced turkey. Hey, you gotta get your protein somehow. - Girls, buy DRY SHAMPOO, because you're not going to be able to get your hair wet until the splint comes off 5-7 days later. - Use a Clarisonic to help wash your face around the splint SPLINT REMOVAL (DAY 7) Because I had an open rhinoplasty, the doctor needed to remove both the splint and the stitches on my septum. This wasn't exactly painless, but it was over in about 4 minutes. I still have a few dissolvable stitches inside my nose but should soon go away.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS When my new nose was unveiled, my initial reaction was a pretty standard one: "Holy crap, IT'S SO SWOLLEN!" I actually found it more funny than alarming; from the front, I looked like Cindy Lou Who! However, I knew this was a very early, undeveloped impression of what would later be a very different, more refined and defined nose. My profile view is gorgeous, however -- feminine, refined. The hump, though reduced, is still somewhat visible. I asked the doctor about this. He said the bump is only skin deep. The skin is so used to being draped over a hump, it takes some time for it to conform to the new straight bone. So once the swelling subsides, the "bump" will as well.
DAY 11 I'm currently on Day 11, and my nose has already started to de-swell. I can't say I'm 100% happy with the results just yet, but I can appreciate the overall shape, which is SO improved. My profile is amazing, and I can already see that once the skin begins to "shrink wrap" to the new underlying structure, my beautiful new nose will emerge. I will continue to keep you posted as my results mature! All in all, I have no regrets. When RealSelf asks me "Was is worth it?", I base my response not only on the cost of the surgery but the physically and emotionally rough recovery period thereafter. And despite it all, my answer is yes! To be able to live the rest of my life not worrying about how my nose looks in pictures, or trying to put my makeup on in just the right way to make it look smaller, or feeling self-conscious of my profile every time someone looks at me from the side, it is definitely worth it.

Miranda distorted Ginsburg's record to falsely attack her "human rights standard"
Research ››› ››› SIMON MALOY
In his September 23 OpinionJournal.com column, Wall Street Journal columnist Manuel Miranda attacked Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg by falsely claiming that Ginsburg, as a counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), "advocated that there was a constitutional right to prostitution and that the age of consent should be lowered to 12." Ginsburg, in her writings, has addressed the constitutionality of prostitution and referred to legislation that set the age of consent at 12 years, but she did not advocate either.
In claiming Ginsburg "advocated the constitutionality of prostitution, " Miranda distorted a 1974 report of the Columbia Law School Equal Rights Advocacy Project co-authored by Ginsburg, which read: "Prostitution as a consensual act between adults is arguably within the zone of privacy protected by recent constitutional decisions." Ginsburg was not arguing for constitutional protection for prostitution; she was saying that the argument could be made -- and had been made -- that the Constitution protects this activity. Ginsburg clarified this distinction at her 1993 Supreme Court confirmation, when then-ranking minority member of the Senate Judiciary Committee Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) questioned her and quoted the 1974 report. Ginsburg explained that the position had been argued, and Hatch elucidated his use of the quotation, saying: "You were making an academic point. I understand. I'm not trying to indicate that you were justifying prostitution."
From Ginsburg's 1993 confirmation hearing:
HATCH: Some people believe in a right to privacy that would allow almost anything, say, prostitution. Let me note that in 1974, in a report to the United States Civil Rights Commission, you wrote, Judge, quote, "Prostitution as a consensual act between adults is arguably within the zone of privacy protected by recent constitutional decisions," unquote. That's in "The Legal Status of Women Under Federal Law," page -- in 1972 I believe. You were citing Griswold [v. Connecticut], Eisenstadt [v. Baird], and Roe v. Wade. You could push it further. How about marijuana use in one's own home? Is that a right to privacy that we should --
GINSBURG: I said "arguably." I said it has been argued.
HATCH: I know you were --
GINSBURG: I did not say --
HATCH: You were making an academic point. I understand. I'm not trying to indicate that you were justifying prostitution. But the point is some people believe this right of privacy is so broad you can almost justify anything.
Miranda's claim that Ginsburg advocated lowering the age of consent to 12 years is a similar distortion of the 1974 report. In the report, she objected to the "traditional sex discriminatory fashion" in which the United States Code defined rape (the definition in the section of the code she was addressing has since been amended to be gender-neutral). As an example of legislation that better "conform[ed] to the equality principle," she noted a bill proposed in the Senate in 1973 that set out three separate circumstances that would constitute rape, one of which was given as follows: "the other person is, in fact, less than twelve years old."
The bill she identified read as follows:
A person is guilty of an offense if he engages in a sexual act with another person, not his spouse, and (1) compels the other person to participate: (A) by force or (B) by threatening or placing the other person in fear that any person will imminently be subjected to death, serious bodily injury, or kidnapping; (2) has substantially impaired the other person's power to appraise or control the conduct by administering or employing a drug or intoxicant without the knowledge or against the will of such other person, or by other means; or (3) the other person is, in fact, less than 12 years old.
Ginsburg wrote approvingly not of the bill's change in the age of consent but of its largely gender-neutral language. Ginsburg never addressed the bill's "age of consent" clause. As evidence that she was in fact citing the bill merely for its use of language, Slate.com's Timothy Noah noted in a September 16 column that in a footnote Ginsburg actually criticized the bill for "retain[ing] use of the masculine pronoun to cover individuals of both sexes." According to Noah: "What, then, is Ruth Bader Ginsburg's true crime? In discussing how to rewrite the federal law addressing statutory rape, Ginsburg failed to state an opinion about what the age of consent should be."
From Miranda's September 23 column:
There is another goal: to ensure that, if the president nominates a woman, she is their kind of woman. Remarkably, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg did some politicking on this point earlier this week. On Wednesday, Justice Ginsburg told an audience that she doesn't like the idea of being the only female justice on the U.S. Supreme Court, but that in replacing Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, "any woman will not do." There are "some women who might be appointed who would not advance human rights or women's rights." When she was counsel for the ACLU, Justice Ginsburg advocated that there was a constitutional right to prostitution and that the age of consent should be lowered to 12. With a "human rights" standard as high as that, Mr. Bush's job just got a whole lot tougher.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX dives as Greece crisis spurs bank selloff
* TSX sheds 224.20 points, or 1.51 percent, to 14,583.89
* All 10 main groups fall, banks weigh heaviest
By Alastair Sharp
TORONTO, June 29 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index fell more than 1.5 percent on Monday as investors fretted about the impact if Greece exits the euro, with banks taking the brunt of the losses and gold miners listed among the few gainers.
A breakdown in talks between Greece and its creditors has pushed the country closer to default on its loans and possibly out of the currency bloc.
The six most influential weights on the Canadian stock index were all financial, with Royal Bank of Canada falling 2.4 percent to C$76.42 and Toronto-Dominion Bank declining 2.1 percent to C$53.19. The index's financial group dropped 2.3 percent as a whole.
The banks' fall, however, was deemed more of a knee-jerk reaction than a retreat that will be sustained.
"I don't think any Canadian bank has one dollar of assets in Greece anymore. If they do, shame on them because everybody knew about this four years ago," said Barry Schwartz, portfolio manager at Baskin Financial Services.
At 10:29 a.m. (1429 GMT), the Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index was down 224.20 points, or 1.51 percent, at 14,583.89. All 10 of its main groups were in negative territory, with seven stocks falling for every one that gained. Continued...

Hello all,
I have spent the last few weekends trying to find the culprit for my misfire codes (P0300-306 and P1399), but no luck finding the issue. I have a 2000 Honda Odyssey EX w/ 135,000 miles. I am starting to suspect the fuel pump/filter but want to be sure before buying a new one. So far I have done:
1. Checked for bad coils (unplug while running test)
2. Cleaned EGR port
3. Replaced EGR Valve
4. Checked valve clearance (within spec)
5. Checked spark plugs (all normal wear and gap within spec), just replaced them last year with OEM NGK plugs
6. Run a can of Seafoam through the gas tank
7. New air filter
The air and spark paths have checked out ok so that must mean the fuel supply is the culprit. Has anyone changed their fuel pump/filter as a result of the misfire codes? I've searched the forums for a couple weeks now and can't find an exact match. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Shower stall rot remodel...
Hey All,
New to the forum - but picking up a lot of advice since purchasing my first house. Thanks in advance for any help.
Quick question, long explanation. I've replaced some rotted subfloor in a bathroom under the previous owners shower stall, pretty hacked in and def a remodel at some point. Knucklehead had carpet on top of MDF in a bathroom - crumbled and rotted right down to and including subfloor! Anyway it was a ~30x40 fiberglass pan with 12x12 tiles up ~7ft walls.
Since replacing the subfloor and rotted sections of plates/studs, I've begun framing in the new stall approximate same dimensions. Did however widen the opening, 2x8 header, with jacks (went beefier). Walls are also taller now to be 80 inches when complete.
Anyway, question is weight. I plan to mortar the pan, and mosaic tile. The bathroom sits in a outside corner, and the stall about 6 feet from joists entering foundation, perpendicular to joists. 12"OC 2x8's @ 14'5 span with bridging - zero deflection noticed. Hard time deciphering span tables and would love a some expertise before deciding to put the shower back on whether it would be wise to do so.
I can't quite tell if this was part of the original house - despite finding it on some basic architectural plans we were lucky enough to find in a closet...thinking maybe later remodel plans. Custom architected/built house in 1970.
Thanks a ton all.
Welcome Talk.....very good explination of your situation....above par for most 1st posts.
We have one guy here who is an expert on this stuff....so hopefully he will chime in.
Your setup sounds almost exactly like my sub-floor....2x8's 12" OC. I had some droop in my bathroom...real serious uder the shower due to a leak and rot. I ended up replacing a 10x14' section of flooring....it was actually easier to put in the floor joist than take out the old ones.
Since you want to beef it up a bit, there is nothing wrong with doubling up a few floor joists. I did that in a couple of places, especially where a wall landed....I also poured a couple of pads and installed a girder under the bathtub.
As for spans.....I'm starting to think that was was ok in 1970 doesn't fly now. I'm in the middle of a 2-story addition and my upstairs is 2x12 12"OC...and the longest free span is 14'. Significantly stronger than the existing house.
Thanks ddawg - appreciate the advice.
Good news is that none of the joists were rotted/affected by the water damage, so I won't be replacing any of those.
I like the peace of mind a girder however. I think I'll make that my plan for the day. However pouring pads pretty much isn't going to be an option. I live in the mountains, and while I have crawl space, the house is built almost exclusively on boulder. Digging into that is a non-option :)
Any suggestions how to go about this, or options. How many 2xn? I'm thinking I'll run a girder perpendicular under the four joists the shower will sit on top of. Don't know if I'll be able to get it dead center due to drain etc - but close.
Thanks again!
You don't have to be dead center....
For my girders, I used 4x6's. Here is a pic of one of them.
But without something pushing up against the girder....it's not going to really do much for you. I would think you would be better off sistering a couple of 2x8's up against your existing joists
Thanks again for the advice and pic. Took the day off - first weekend day off since I moved in over two months ago. Trying to decide best approach.
Did you run your girder exterior wall to exterior wall, or a short support section under the tub? Not sure the best approach here. I'm guessing if I do so (wall to wall) it would be best placed mid span. My cross bridging runs the width of the house directly under where the stall is going.
Just trying to decide if I'm over-thinking things and making an engineering project out of a bathroom remodel :whistling2:
Anyway your advice has been invaluable. Reflection is a good thing. I'm having a engineer out to look at a spot of rotted girder (3 2x10's) at the foundation that I'm not in the mood to attempt... I get this all figured out than I can just have fun with putting on the 'makeup' as my wife calls it. Having a blast with this stuff, structural elements just cause me to pause...
Back in the 70's, carpet was what you saw in bath's, up to the early to mid 90's. Underlayment for carpet was pressed sawdust, now they are back to using exterior grade plywood as the sub. So stating that the contractor is a hack is beyond what you realize how homes were built at that time. The 70's saw a boom and change in how homes were built on the cheap in Tract's.
You should be all set with your 2x8 12oc for a mud job on the floor if none of the joists are rotted. If you want to feel a little more secure, you can do what ddawg16 suggested.
I ran a deflection rating----Bad news---over span for tile----2x8--12" on center---14.5 feet--
243------you need 360 for tile --720 for natural stone---
You need to beef that up----
Thanks Mike. I'm just glad my gut served me right and I halted things when I did. The last remodel of that bath was definitely homeowner done - and had some shady framing to make a new fiberglass pan fit. I'm guessing it was at one time a full fiberglass frame when the house was built in 70.
Anyway - in a bit of a predicament now. What I thought was a simple job, replacing some rot, reframing, and throwing the drywall back up, turned into a little bit more than expected. I'd like to move ahead with putting in girder. Doubling joists would involve tremendous work in moving pipes and wires etc. which is outside of my skill/comfort level. If that's required - I think I'll have to go with a lighter shower stall than originally planned.
Can a girder be installed just under the midspan of the bathroom, say in an 8ft length? Or is this something that would have to go outside wall to outside wall? Also any ideas for concrete pad workarounds? The ground under my subfloor is largely rock/boulder. Would precast concrete blocks work?
Regardless, I'm having some structural people out to look at an unrelated issue in the crawlspace. I figure it best to get everything checked out, and settle my paranoia.
Appreciate the help guys.
I don't see any issues putting a girder at say the 8' point. What you are basically doing is reducing the 14' span down to 8'.
As for precast concrete blocks....are you talking about the ones that look like a piramid? That might work...but I would think that you need to anchor them to your ground somehow. You might need to drill into your rock....embed some rebar...then pour a small pad to sit the blocks on. Once the blocks are in place...shim the girder as necessary.
If you add a girder like D-Dawg suggested you are solid as a rock---
2x8--12" center--8 foot span is 1090---360 is good for tile--720 is safe for natural stone--
Sounds good. Thanks guys. I feel sufficiently prepared to get to work on this now this weekend.
I'm hoping to get down at least a little bit in a 3 places before hitting rock for the support beam to pour some pads. It's looking more like 5ft out from the exterior wall, perhaps I'll shoot for centering under bathroom wall directly above. The crawl space entry prevents me from going out too far which sits on the other side of that bathroom wall shared with my boiler, etc. Entry is sistered all around with 2x8's (which I would expect) - two running the full length - so should get even more stiffness there being so close to stall.
18x18x6 suffice enough for this - rebar grid - being not a main support? Or is that overkill? Will do some 4x4 posts for girder at about 8ft in length under the area.
Thanks all the help - hopefully not too many more questions!
Your plan sounds good----I like to see a thicker pad than 6 inch---depends on the soil under there ---
The spec for my pads was 12x12x12...sitting on adobe soil....they ended up being more like 16x16x12 with the 6x6 concrete post you see....
A couple of things I learned from doing mine....
Make it level....it makes it a lot eaiser when it comes time to set the girder....I actually took a long board and screwed my post forms to that board...I then anchored the board to my floor joists so that the concrete posts where properly aligned.
I put my forms together with screws....made it easier to remove....not a lot of room under my existing house.
Let it dry....give the pads at least a few days to dry before you install the girder and start jacking it up and installing shims.
The following 2 pics are what my bathroom looked like 6 years ago....we had a shower that leaked....the floor was actually sagging almost 2" in this area.
In this pic you can see one of the pads I 'was' using to support the floor.
We ended up not putting the shower back in....I used one of those pads to support the area under the bath tub.
Here is a pic of one of the new girders that is supported by the footings....
The reason for all this....this area is where we installed the stairs....those 2 footings your looking at were poured last summer 'under' the house....that wall on the right is the same wall in the above pics in the center....it seperates the bath from the bedroom....it now supports the stairs....
Another awesome post. Thanks DDawg/Mike.
I'll go thicker on the pad for sure. You had quite the job there - I'm thankful my joists were fine! Thanks for tip re pad placement. As for jacking - wasn't planning on it due to the fact there is no more than 1/8th to 1/4th inch of settle I'm seeing. Floor is solid and level. Was going to mallet in the posts for a tight fit, and secure accordingly to give the support I was looking for. Please let me know if I am incorrect in my thinking - otherwise thank you again.

So this is a touchy one. But recently it has come to my attention that at the time I was promoted 4 males were hired and paid a higher salary than me.
So how does that work?
Why am I not worth as much as my male colleagues?
We have the same targets.
The same standards to meet.
The same expectations.
So why are my efforts valued at less?
I don't know the answers to these questions yet. But I will certainly be asking them to my manager.
It's a bloody disgrace.

Camp Report: Coach Hendrick Is Back
By USF
Related Links
Updated at 6:53 p.m. -- The Bulls afternoon practice ended early due to rain. The Bulls will be back in meetings tonight and then play it by ear tomorrow with heavy rain and winds in the forecast.
We were able to catch defensive line coach John Hendrick for an interview with GoUSFBulls.com reporter Garrett Woolvard. Woolvard was also able to catch up with Tyson Butler, Danny Verpael and Marc Dile.
Links to the videos are below...
Video: Verpaele | Coach Hendrick | Butler | Dile
Updated at 9:30 a.m. -- Great news out of camp this morning as defensive line coach John Hendrick has returned to the team.
Hendrick suffered a heart attack on July 1 and was anxiously awaiting clearance by his doctors. That day came Saturday and Hendrick rejoined the coaching staff in meetings on Sunday.
Monday morning he was back on the field working side-by-side with defensive ends coach Kevin Patrick. The Pittsburgh alum and ordained pastor has dropped 15-plus pounds during his time away from football.
Geoge Selvie was named to the Walter Camp Award Watch List on Monday. Selive was a Camp All-American last season after producing record sack and tackles for loss numbers.
The coaching staff was excited about the practice plan for Monday morning and afternoon because it involved a lot of hitting. With the threat of Tropical Storm Fay hitting the area on Tuesday and Wednesday, Coach Leavitt will probably push his team hard today, which is the fifth two-a-day of camp.
Daily Links
Tim Prister of IrishIllustrated.com believes the Bulls will win the BIG EAST and be a favorite for the national championship game.
Greg Auman of the St. Pete Times breaks down the ballots of the 65 AP voters and finds that two people selected the Bulls at No. 8.
The Washinton Post has high expectations for the Bull as well, as it has ranked them No. 13 in its top-25 countdown.
Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops is in his 10th season with the Sooners and The Oklahoman is tracking down people, "who offered insight into the man who rebuilt the monster." Jake Trotter and Berry Tramel write, "Where did Stoops pick up the visor look? All signs point to his old comrade, Jim Leavitt. Now the South Florida head coach, Leavitt was co-defensive coordinator at Kansas State with Stoops. Stoops began wearing a visor at KSU.
"Feels better than a hat," Stoops said. Stoops remembered that Leavitt wore a visor at KSU. Leavitt joked that he wore a visor at K-State "because we couldn't afford the rest of the hat."
Leavitt got to K-State 19 years ago but says he's been wearing a visor for 30 years. So if Leavitt wore a visor when he arrived at KSU, and Stoops began wearing a visor at KSU, stands to reason that Leavitt was his mentor. Which Leavitt considers a good trade. "I've learned a great deal from Bob in the time I worked with him," Leavitt said. "Bob's a hell of a coach. He's a great coach."
Short article, but high praise for George Selvie who is listed as the top NFL prospect in the BIG EAST by The Sporting News.
The Bleacher Report writes, "The key, however, to the Bulls offense in 2008 will be at the RB position where either Benjamin Williams or Mike Ford must step up to take the pressure and pounding on Grothe. This will enable Grothe to be more effective and to throw to the quartet of big athletic receivers who are returning in 2008."

Spike Lee Wants Zimmerman Tweet Lawsuit Ended
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Spike Lee is asking a federal judge to throw out a negligence lawsuit filed by a Florida couple who say the movie director mistakenly retweeted their address as belonging to George Zimmerman.
Lee's attorneys filed a motion on Tuesday to dismiss the lawsuit brought by Elaine and David McClain.
The McClains say Lee put their address in a Twitter post as belonging to Zimmerman. Zimmerman was acquitted last summer of any crime for 17-year-old Trayvon Martin's shooting death.
The McClains say they received death threats and had to temporarily move out of their home.
Lee's attorneys say the couple is seeking $1.2 million.
Lee's attorneys argue the lawsuit should be dismissed since the couple reached a $10,000 settlement with Lee last year.

In 1986 Therm-a-Rest created the first modern closed-cell mattresses. In the years since, closed-cell mattresses have become a mainstay of climbers, backpackers and adventurers around the world.
Therm-a-Rest invented NeoAir™ technology to provide a no-compromise solution to outdoor sleep comfort. These mattresses provide a high level of warmth and comfort without the weight and bulk found in conventional mattresses by using over 100 individual cells that effectively hold warmth and provide stability.
For over 40 years Therm-a-Rest has pursued a single mission, to provide the best nights under the stars. In January 2013 Therm-a-Rest introduced a line of revolutionary sleeping bags with greater comfort and significantly less weight than conventional bags. Watch this video to learn more about the design philosophy behind Therm-a-Rest sleeping bags.

Seattle aerospace giant Boeing laid off 50,000 people in 1971, leaving engineers Jim Lea and Neil Anderson with time on their hands. Another engineer friend, John Burroughs, challenged them with creating a better camping mattress; at that time, air mattresses were cold and leaky, while closed-cell foam pads were bulky and uncomfortable. One day while Jim was gardening, inspiration struck. As he shifted his weight on his foam ground cushion, he heard the air escaping a closed chamber. Combining a few deductions from this experience with a lot of tinkering, he and Neil came up with a prototype of a mattress that featured open-cell memory foam surrounded by air and sealed inside and airtight chamber, with a valve to control air pressure. The world's first self-inflating sleeping pad was born.
After year of field testing, they had reached a design that offered far superior comfort and performance than anything that had existed before. John dubbed it the "Therm-a-Rest," because the new pad offered both insulation and the comfort that outdoor enthusiasts needed to get a good night's sleep under the stars. A patent application was filed and, by 1972, the Therm-a-Rest mattress was on its way to becoming an integral piece of camping and excursion gear for millions. It was so ground-breaking, in fact, that in 2012 Outside Magazine placed it on its list of "The Most Influential Gear of All-Time."
Today, the Therm-a-Rest line of sleeping pads offers models designed for fast-and-light backpackers to luxury-loving car campers, and everyone in between. It features a number of variations on the original design, as well as the next-generation, multiple-award-winning NeoAir line. The company also revisited and vastly improved the closed-cell pads that used to be so uncomfortable; the Z-Lite and RidgeRest mattresses are the result. It now also offers the LuxuryLite cot for the ultimate in outdoor sleeping comfort.
In fact, Therm-a-Rest offers all the components of a complete sleep system, not just the pad. Therm-a-Rest sleeping bags are designed to work in tandem with its pads to balance light weight with comfort. Pillows and bedding sized to fit its pads help enable a good night's sleep. And for waking hours, kits are available that turn your pad into a comfortable chair, or you can opt for seating mini-pads that protect your behind from the cold, hard ground.
Heading into its fourth decade, Therm-a-Rest remains the worldwide leader in outdoor comfort, offering the broadest and most innovative assortment of outdoor comfort products available. The company continues to innovate, always driven by the conviction that the better your rest, the more you'll enjoy your time precious time outdoors.

Challenger 10-18 years
Once out of Mini Tennis, the player can attend Club Challenger squads. This gives existing players a chance to sharpen their skills on a full size court with real balls. These squads also provide a solid start to the older beginner player. More complex challenges are given to the player with co-ordination, agility, reactions, balance and perception still forming the major part of the training outside of technical and tactical learning. The players have the opportunity to attend at least 2 sessions per week. Extra training takes place throughout each holiday in special tennis or pro sport camps which offer a great way to have fun and improve. Download the summer term application form here.
Performance 4-18 years
The more committed player that has the potential to achieve county standard as a minimum may be invited to attend club performance squads. Training is performance orientated and themes are developed in line with National Guidelines. Technical, Tactical, Physical and Mental Training are delivered throughout the squads which increase in number and intensity as the players move out of mini tennis. A competitive programme is offered to the player to help them fulfil a set number of matches to be played per year. Individual lessons are often required to aid the technical learning. Extra training throughout the holidays takes place at strategic times of the year to help participants on the programme peak at important times. Those committed and skillfull enough to be in our top squad enjoy a full competitive schedule, fitness programme, technical coaching, sports science, physiotherapy, squads, individuals and tournament trips with coaches. All Performance training is by invite only. For more details contact our Director of Coaching Neil Frankel.

Each week, we offer the biased unproven views of a 28 year old mind trapped in a 78 year old body.
I can not hate a nation or a group. I don't like Bernie Madoff, I'm sure some nice people worked for him.
A mother chatting with an older daughter at lunch invariably brings to her face a concerned look.
Sitting in a dentist waiting room is akin to waiting for the arrival of Death.
I know that I am in St. Louis when three pages of the sports section deal with wrestling.
What is the protocol for being in a single sex toilet-do you stand or have to sit?
The United States got defeated in the World Baseball Classic. I know this is not the era of Babe Ruth or Ted Williams.
If newspapers continue to fold it will be up to Jon Stewart to handle investigative reporting.
Few people exit a coffee shop with an empty mug.
I am not a hitch up the pants man, are you?
I saw two priests at lunch. I was surprised since it is now so rare to see a few priests together.
As women grow older, they seek out friends of the same weight, hair color and size.
I wonder if or when people will say, "Depression."
I take a booth for privacy but have this unique ability to always select the one which is next to the loudest people in the place.
I passed two men seated in front of computers and holding hands as they prayed. It was a powerful sight.
In my youth, people wore the same style shoes. These days, the shoe fits the person and each person is different.
I sense a hardening of feeling into "us" versus "them." How about "we?"
I never know how to dress when meeting someone for the first time since life has become much more informal.
A comfortable chair, solitude, and silence are what I frequently seek in life.
The shorter person usually precedes the taller.
Never forget, all Emperors on occasion go out without clothes.
We need a Nobel Peace Prize for the person who can invent a senior citizen friendly computer. It would end anger between grandparents and grandchildren.
The beginning of a week vacation has much more hope than its conclusion.
Hair has caused more anger in the world than that caused by feet.
Each day at exactly 8:45 a.m. my cell phone rings with a message inviting me to a Caribbean vacation. Now, if it would only ring with the money for it.
I feel guilty if my car is not exactly flush with the curb. I re-park until it is. Why?
I wonder if the distance between my Depression childhood and immigrant parents was wider than the distance between a 20 year old today and parents.

Internships are an integral part of the education of our students. They allow students to refine and expand the knowledge and skills gained inside and out of the classroom. Students are required to complete a professional 400-hour internship as their capstone course in each Greenlee major (advertising, journalism and mass communication and public relations).
While most journalism and mass communication programs recommend that students complete an internship, we've made it a requirement. Students in each Greenlee major are required to complete a professional 400-hour internship before graduation. Read more about the required ADVRT/JL MC/P R 499 course here. This ensures that all of our students graduate with hands-on career experience that will make them marketable to employers.
While students secure their own internships at a professional outlet of their choice, the school strives to help all students secure paid internship opportunities and provides financial support to offset the cost of unpaid internships. In 2014, Greenlee students completed more paid internships than unpaid internships for the first time since the School began collecting data in 2007.
Our graduates have gone on to very successful careers in local and national media outlets including CNN, MTV, The Wall Street Journal, The Des Moines Register, KCCI, Edelman and Meredith Corporation.
Students are responsible for securing their own internships, but faculty and staff members are available to assist students with:
We also provide:
To see where some of our recent students have interned, look at our List of Past 499 Internships.

F07 Gran Turismo (2010 - 2017)
The 5 Series Gran Turismo - 535i, 550i and 550i xDrive model.

My wife and I put our 550 GT in valet at the Omni last weekend. The valet enthusiastically asked if we had taken the GT on a road trip. We were walking around the hotel grounds and noticed our GT was parked in front of the hotel with a GTR, R8, and a 911. Albeit that the GT's looks are not for everyone the fact remains that it is out of the ordinary. The fact that the GT is relatively rare and it's looks as so different are big reasons that my wife decided to get a GT. I do not think that one could put GT buyers as a collective into one personality type. I do feel on some level that each GT buyer is somewhat aware of the GT's unique styling and that it is car that is not universally appealing. Making a decision to choose a GT is certainly not one made by those that are satisfied with the status quo.
That being said we love our GT, and I am grateful to everyone contributing to this forum. It is great to communicate about our common bond which is our affection for the GT. There have been many times when the information here has helped me tremendously.
I needed a wagon to haul furniture, visiting friends and family and to go on road trips. Yeah, can't really do that with my e89. A sedan wouldn't cut it. I've owned a Q5 and although a decent car, I was bothered by a few of its quirks. Looked at the BMW SUVs X3, X5, X6 and just really hated the ride in general. The X5, X6 are too mushy and honestly really truck like and unattractive. The X3 a bit better but a bit small and really ugly. The best choice for me boiled down to an E61 wagon (since the F11 is not being imported) or go Audi (Allroad). My experience with Audi service has been soso and I always felt the power steering on them was excessive. Added on the depreciation factor and the fact that it is still significantly less roomy than the GT. I went with it. The first time I saw the GT a couple of years ago, I told myself, gosh it's big and ugly. It is certainly not svelt but to be honest, it looks better than the X3 or X5. It is more economical at the pump, much better behaved on the road, bigger, more luxurious and about relatively cheap. It was just the right combination for me. Now if the F11 was imported maybe I would have done something different.

Wow - it's been almost two years since I initiated this thread....
I think the essential point remains as true today as when I owned my GT - GT owners are independent spirits who are not afraid of blazing their own path, as opposed to being ruled by the opinions of others. F07 owners are true BMW enthusiasts who understand that their GTs are endowed with a robust athleticism, functionality and road presence that is truly unique in BMW's big tent.
I enjoyed my year with my 550iGT and the camaraderie of my FO7 brothers on this forum as we fought for respect, truth, and a new way for BMW.
BTW I betcha the F07 New Year's Eve Diversity Party is still cooler than the staid ol' F10 Conformity Party.
..BMWCCA...10th BMW
Thoughts on whether the 3GT will help or hinder the 5GT in the long-term? People have such ill-informed preconceived notions. For example, it's a hatchback so it has less rear-seat headroom than the sedan. Way off. A lot of the vitriol comes from people wishing for the touring model. But, they don't seem to recognize that the GT outsells by a long shot those few takers on that model when it was available here. Then, the dealers first only ordered the things fully loaded and people would look at the sticker and say why would I pay that for a 5-series car, and never look further. The dealers often don't even have one people can drive, which is a big turnoff, too. So, the US dealer network shot itself in the foot, where they could sell more, if they had any confidence in themselves and BMW.
Personally, it's the only BMW I find comfortable to get in and out of, and it met my needs for size. I'd still like it if the steering wheel came out another inch, and then it'd be nearly perfect, but it's pretty damn good as it is! I've said it before, while I do like the way it looks, looks is not my primary selection criteria - fit and function are. The first new car I ever bought was a 1971 Citroen...as you can see, looks weren't my first thought there, either! But boy did that thing ride nice on crappy roads, and it was huge inside. Nicest overstuffed lounge chair I ever drove in.
6ft1 and GT go together
6ft1 and GT 535 go together. I would have loved to have my hands on the 550 but with my style of driving even the M5 have a hard time keeping up. Soupped up and chipped I am in happy land.
I gave up a chipped 535xi 2010 and initially was thinking of another 2011/12 until I came to this forum read up on the GT and got hunting.
For tall guys and those slightly on the big side this car has it all, the oomph of the a smaller sedan and the coziness of of the big brother. I did not give 2 hoods to a good friend who found it ugly. I listened intently to a waiter who nudged another whilst I was in a restaurant to go look at that beautiful Beemer out there.
I sincerely want to thank those who take their time to educate me/us on this forum. I love cars but know nothing about their inner "beast".
The BMW 535 GT is my fave ride as is my 2006 SONATA V6, a sleeper, with 185000 miles on it and sounding as good as new.
Thanks again to all who contribute, you made it soo much easier for the likes of me.
Valley Forge, Pa
Early mid-40's, professional, analytical type. I've had many different cars in the past, including a 335i coupe that I picked up in Europe back in 2007. I've since sold that car and have been driving a Mercedes SUV for the past 3.5 years. I was ready for a new car and wanted something that combined comfort, performance and practicality. For me, the 5 GT best met these requirements.
Regarding the looks, it's a mixed bag. One of my friends thinks it's the ugliest thing he's ever seen, and yet I occasionally receive compliments on the appearance from perfect strangers. In the end I honestly don't care what anyone else thinks of the appearance, because I like it (a lot) and I'm old enough now that the opinion of others doesn't much concern me.
We just bought 2010 550i GT CPO with 42k miles. We mostly drove Japanese cars like Lexus and acura. $38k for this beemer was too good to pass on, so we bought it. I love this car. "Ultimate Driving Machine" is not a gimmic. It is TRUE!! It is stylish, has all options that i can imagine and then some, rare, versital, and practical for my wife and 2 babies. I have feeling that this will be the first of many Beemers that we will own eventually. I am a believer.
spyderdude, congratulations on your new toy and welcome to the GT club. It is good to have another member. Enjoy the ride!
I think one of BMWUSA's problems comes from the original sales plans for the GT. When first introduced in the USA, it was V8 only and X-drive was not available. Then, the first ones sent to most any dealer contained almost all of the available options which priced the thing way up there $90K + was not unusual). Trying to get a 5-series driver to 'upgrade' to a GT meant paying almost (or more, relative to a base 7) as much as a 7-series vehicle. Especially in the NE, where many of the vehicles are X-drive, the dealers got a bad taste of these things won't sell, and not that many of them stock them, or have one on display for people to consider. It takes a well-read person or a random chance for them to sell, thus the reputation.
Personally, of the models available, it's the only one that I fit into comfortably. On all of the others, it's almost impossible to get in without banging my head unless I want to change the way I've been getting into vehicles for the last 60+ years! It meets my needs, I think it looks fine, but then vehicle looks isn't a huge factor when selecting a new car - first, I have to fit, then it must function well with the amenities I've come to expect...the GT meets all of those requirements.
Jada, in addition to the foolish initial import layout of V8, 550, 2 wheel drive remember it was also only a FOUR SEATER.... a big ass expensive four seater at that..... sale sincreased as did interest once they added in the v6, 5 seats, and x drive... i see more and more of them on the road but still feel part of the more exclusive of bmw clubs driving one...there is little out there that offer the utility, comfort and sportiness of the GT all rolled into one....1 year later and 17K miless and i still love it everyday...
cant say that i wont want a 4 series gran coupe though when they hit the streets... but i certainly doent see owning an x5 as my hauler snow car anymore as long as the GT is available...

Apparently a guy got out of his vehicle at his home and was walking toward his door when 3 BG's approached him, one of the BG's pulled a gun on him. The homeowner pulled his own gun and shot the BG.

Good deal. The homeowner did the right thing to defend Himself.
Good job by the home owner defending himself. Looks like the wounded criminal either ratted out the other two or the home owner held them for the police.
But if you are authorized to carry a weapon, and you walk outside without it, just take a deep breath, and say this to yourself...

Renaissance Home for Youth my derriere!Local resident fights armed robber
February 12, 2009
A would be armed-robber is recovering in a hospital and will go to jail after his release for treatment of a shoulder wound inflicted by the man he was trying to rob.
The incident occurred Wednesday around 11:20 p.m. on Henry Street in Alexandria when Ronald Cook, 17, of 450 Williamson St., and two 16 year old males attempted to rob a man, according to an Alexandria Police Department press release.
The man exited his vehicle and began walking toward his residence when one of the suspects pulled a gun. The man then fired his own weapon at the suspects, striking Cook.
Officials said Cook will be charged with armed robbery and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of juveniles. The juveniles were taken to the Renaissance Home for Youth.
