In case you missed it over the weekend, Sony has released firmware version 1.13 for both the F5 & F55. Along with a few bug fixes, this update also includes much-requested features like adjustable Exposure Index (EI) while shooting Raw, and remote start/stop trigger. Previously when recording in Cine-EI mode (Raw to the AXS-R5 recorder), you were limited to monitoring and recording to SxS cards in the native EI value of the camera. With the recent update, you can now effectively pull (or gain down) your exposure. While we don't typically recommend pulling your exposure away from the native sensitivity of the camera, this does provide a quick way to monitor changes you may make in post-production.
This update also brings remote start/stop trigger via one of the 4-pin Hirose DC power outputs. We're sure there will be numerous third party triggers available shortly, but this update means you can use the AbelCine HDx35 Mark II and HDx35-F5 cable with your 2/3″ ENG lens for full servo zoom and VTR switch functionality.

One of the hunters was a local preacher with a child in the passenger seat. Another was a retired highway patrolman from Oregon. Another was a well-respected member of a sportsmen's group. Darrah remembers walking up to the vehicle with the sportsman inside. "He rolled down the window and I said, 'You've gotta be kidding me.'"
The next year, Darrah and his fellow wardens received a tip that poachers were heading to a place called Coyote Meadows, off the same forest road where they'd busted 10 poachers in a row. It was about 2 a.m. when the wardens placed a buck decoy at a 90-degree bend in the road, and then hid in nearby bushes. Minutes later, a truck carrying three men rumbled toward them. The truck stopped, and a passenger stepped out with his rifle and fired at the decoy.
"There's nothing like that when you're sitting that close, just feet away, just listening to this," Darrah says. "You're in the still of the night, and when the gun goes off like that and you know it's illegal...it's not just a bang, it's a ker-freaking-bang!"
With the deer still standing, the driver stepped out of the truck with his rifle, mocked his buddy's poor aim, and fired. Ker-bang!
That was enough. Darrah jumped out of the bushes and yelled, "Fish and Game!"
The surprise apparently caused one of the poachers to wet his pants. When he stepped out of the warden's truck after getting a ticket, he left behind a "big soiled stain on the seat cover," Darrah says. "We scared the crap out of him, I guess."
During the first few years they hunted poachers near Butte, Darrah says he and his fellow wardens about doubled the number of poaching cases statewide, from around 70 to 150.
"The decoy has been very, very valuable," he says. "It's not as effective today as it was then, because the word has gotten out—and that's cool, because that's what we wanted to happen. If it takes worrying about whether it's a decoy or not, that instant that it takes gives an animal maybe the time it needs to get away from being poached."
The goose
1-800-TIP-MONT is the state's hotline for reporting wildlife crimes. In recent years, the hotline has received about 2,200 calls a year. But this year, FWP's Brian Shinn, the TIP-MONT coordinator, expects the hotline to get about 2,600 calls by Jan. 1, which would be a record.
"There's a couple obvious reasons, and technology would be one of them," Shinn says. "People are in the field now with cellphones, and they see [violations] immediately and they call them in immediately, instead of going home and stewing on it and forgetting about it."
The second reason, Shinn says, is education. "More and more people are educated on the fact that this number exists."
But it's also true that there's been an uptick in poaching cases this year. Shinn calls it a "pretty devastating year," especially in northwest Montana. "This has been, as far as I can see, the worst year of people just shooting things and leaving them lay."
So perhaps Shinn and fellow FWP staffers who field so many grim TIP-MONT calls welcome the ones they can't help but laugh about.
This year or last—Shinn isn't sure which, since he says all of the calls run together in his memory—a boy, who we'll call Tommy, dialed TIP-MONT and Shinn answered.
"I'd like to report a shooting from a vehicle," the boy said, and he provided the shooter's name and the vehicle's license plate number.
Then Shinn heard in the background, "Tommy, who are you calling?"
"I'm turning you in, Uncle Bob," the boy said. "You're not allowed to shoot out the window."
Tommy had busted his own uncle.
It's an anecdote that makes Shinn believe that the hunting culture is changing. "Kids are telling the adults how to hunt now, and I think that's kind of cool," he says.
Another FWP staffer shared the following TIP-MONT call on the condition of anonymity. Shinn can't confirm or deny it.
During this past hunting season, a woman driving down a highway spotted an injured goose on the side of the road. She pulled over and huddled around it to keep it warm, and called for an FWP warden to come and save it. A warden arrived a while later to discover that the goose wasn't a goose at all. It was a goose decoy that evidently had fallen out of the the back of someone's vehicle.
Shinn can confirm a different call. Recently, an upset woman reported a turkey laying in the road. She told TIP-MONT that the turkey just didn't look right; something had happened to it. So Shinn dispatched a warden.
"Long story short," Shinn says, "the warden...goes down there, and it was a Butterball turkey from a store that had fallen out of somebody's truck and was lying in the middle of the road, and the lady thought it was a poached turkey.
"People don't realize that [turkeys] don't come wrapped in the wild, I guess," Shinn adds. "That's the kind of stuff we have to deal with on occasion."

- Retailers utilized free shipping offers to entice Cyber Monday shoppers at a 2.5 time higher rate than previously recorded.
- During the first 10 months of 2012, 68-80% of orders were shipped no later than the day after the order was placed. On Cyber Monday, however, just over half of orders (52%) were shipped by that point.
- Comparable returns data from the August 2012 order cycle shows that 46% of retailers offered free returns or a prepaid label on Cyber Monday orders versus 30% in August.
ATLANTA, April 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Innotrac Corporation (NASDAQ: INOC), a best-of-breed commerce provider integrating digital technology, fulfillment, and contact center solutions to support global brands, today announced summary results of its latest SmartHub® eCommerce benchmark analysis, which was based on a sampling of orders placed on Cyber Monday in November 2012. SmartHub®, Innotrac's proprietary benchmarking tool, provides clients and strategic partners with intelligence and analysis of the online retail purchase cycle. The current release evaluated over 225 leading merchants across 81 data points, tracking the entire eCommerce experience from ordering, to shipping, packaging, customer service, and returns. "We were really excited to see the data from Cyber Monday," said Melissa O'Keefe, Sr. Director of eCommerce and Marketing at Innotrac. "There had been a lot of speculation leading up to the holiday season about how Cyber Monday would be affected given the new trend of brick and mortar stores extending their hours and promotions during the Cyber Five. But, the data clearly shows that Cyber Monday still holds the title of busiest shopping day of the year. Our data shows how retailers performed." The Cyber Monday SmartHub® benchmarking study details how retailers performed in the categories of free shipping price points; shipping and delivery time following the busiest day; and returns. Among the findings:

Michigan Head Coach Tommy Amaker
On the second half ... "We certainly were trying to guard against a letdown. We had not been a great team starting out the second half and we really talked about that. We knew they were going to give one last gallant effort at trying to win the game. They came right out of the blocks and put us on our heels. The entire second half was a dog fight. We were knocked on our heels right away and we couldn't overcome that. I'm very disappointed on how we weren't able to finish this game out. I wish I had the words to say how disappointed we are as a basketball team for not being able to come away with a victory tonight."
On the positives in the game ... "I thought we played some really solid minutes in the first half. Bernard (Robinson Jr.) got into some foul trouble early in the second half. We weren't very smart in some situations and we turned the ball over too much. The beginning of the second half was the difference in the game and they scored very easily against our defense."

New home purchase walk-through
Buying a new home cautions.
Pre-sale hype.
"Luxury Condo - You Deserve the Best." Maybe you do but this is not a promise to deliver. Slick ads and fast talk can give the wrong impression.
"Minutes from the Beach" could be 55 minutes. That handsome couple on the sand might be miles away.
"Top Brand Name Appliances" may turn out to be just that, but they can be the very bottom of the popular manufacturer's product line.
The Walk-Through and occupancy.
The walk-through is when the buyer tours the premises with the contractor and is asked to approve and sign off acceptance. Many people aren't prepared for this and the 30 minute walk-through can easily result in missing very costly discoveries until after possession.
If safe and permitted make several critical pre-walk-through tours.
Take along a pad, pen and checklist to note concerns and questions to ask.
Have a knowledgeable friend tag along to help find deficiencies.
Carefully look for flaws, inferior work or product, and omissions.
Photos can come in handy for work that will be covered up. For example pictures of all walls with the wiring and plumbing completed, but before drywall application, can be very useful. You may later wish to drill holes, attach objects or resolve a structural problem. It is a permanent record of what lies hidden.
Very good information. I might add that if the home is in a rural setting, some areas don't require a building inspection. This, with an older home, means a permit is not required for work to be done and I have run into unbelievable problems.
If the home falls in this category, take extra time to inspect!
Great advice. I would make sure and check everything.
The inspector
Another caution to watch for is the unlicensed inspector. They have only recently required certification in my area. If the real estate agent supplies the inspector he may be biased towards a sale for the agent. When I sold my house this was the case, and the inspection was quick, he only dropped into the crawl space and looked around without moving. Ok for me the seller!
You can hire a home inspector of your choosing, many recommend it for new construction too, write it into your contract. When I built my house I did walk throughs several times a week.
I did a checklist for an annual DIY home inspection, the idea is to head off issues before they become costly repairs. Check it out at
Im sure they may be some unscrupulous inspectors out there as is the case in any industry. In fact, id be more concerned with inspectors that didnt know what they were doing rather than ones that were biased or shady!
Well stated Toeey.

I saw my first snow.!!!!!!!!!!! I was a little scared at first....all that white cold stuff. I did'nt want to get outta the truck.
My Grandpaw passed away in January & Mom & Dad went up to his place to take care of stuff. We were at Grandpaws house for 2 weeks. We all miss Grandpaw very much. I was'nt sure if this might be a new furever home for me & my humans & Tank ( my buddy) ,'cause we were there for soooo long. There was 5 feet of snow when we got there & we got four more feet over just a coulpe of days! When we got there, we had to carry our bags and stuff about 100 feet to the house thru 5 feet of snow. Mom was saying that she was gonna attach a sled to me w/ all of our stuff on it so I could pull it to the house.....tee hee. She was just messin' w/ me.
When I stopped being afraid of the snow, my Daddy took me for a really long walk thru the woods. I was running & jumping in the snow. I kept sinking but always managed to surface. I was chasing snow balls that Mom was throwing for me......I had a blast.
We were sad to go 'cause we miss Grandpaw soooo much, but had to get home to Tank & Oreo. Tank & Oreo were so happy to see us. Tank and I ran all over the yard just happy to see each other!!!!!!!!!!!!
We took a second trip to Grandpaws a few weeks later & Tank got to come. We will put his story on his page.....he LOVED the snow. BTYL Salt Water Taffy

text: Posted March 26, 2013 Boys and girls at an Alabama elementary school will still get to hunt for eggs ? but they can?t call them ?Easter Eggs? have the principal banished the word for the sake of religious diversity. ?We had in the past a parent to question us about some of the things we do here at school,? said Heritage Elementary School principal Lydia Davenport. ?So we?re just trying to make sure we respect and honor everybody?s differences.? Television station WHNT reported that teachers were informed that no activities related to or centered around any religious holiday would be allowed ? in the interest of religious diversity. ?Kids love the bunny and we just make sure we don?t say ?the Easter Bunny? so that we don?t infringe on the rights of others because people relate the Easter bunny to religion,? she told the television station. ? A bunny is a bunny and a rabbit is a rabbit.? Teachers had planned to have an Easter egg-themed quiz bowl where boys and girls would ring in with egg buzzers and search for answers hidden in Easter eggs. ?I don?t get upset about too many things, but this upsets me,? one parent wrote to the television station. ?Even non-believers enjoy a good egg hunt. Kids need to enjoy being kids.? Davenport reconsidered the ban after meeting with district leaders ? but she still won?t allow teachers to use the word ?Easter.? ?We compromised by allowing teachers to use other different kinds of shapes besides eggs in the classroom,? she told the television station. But the good news, according to Madison City School Board member Phil Schmidt is that students are going to be allowed to have eggs. ?The principal was trying to be extremely cautious about having anything religious in the school ? probably more cautious than she needed to be.,? he told Fox News. ?In this world of schools, it?s probably better to be cautious than reckless. But at the same time you?ve got to use good judgment about it.? Schmidt said Madison is a very religious community and when it comes to beliefs ? they are diverse and tolerant. At the same time ? he said it?s important to put things in perspective. ?Don?t over think it,? he said. ?It?s the Easter Bunny. People have known there are multi-colored eggs that have been a symbol of Easter for a long, long, long, long time. I don?t think you want to over think it. I don?t think our parents want us to over think it.? And besides, Schmidt pointed out ? they even have an Easter Egg Roll at the White House. ?So having Easter eggs at a school doesn?t seem like it would be a huge stretch,? he said. source Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Selah Fire Burns, Good Samaritan Helps
Crews in Yakima County are battling a wildfire in Selah. It's burning just north of town, and is threatening structures, people and animals.
This fire broke out in North Selah at about 11:00 a.m. and it seems that the wind had shifted East which was able to save some structures, people and animals.
As flames approached, we saw people running to save animals and grab any possessions they could. Flames began to torch the dry wild grass growing just north of where Old Durr Road comes to a dead end. At first people in the area were in fear the fire would spread to the nearby homes and ranches.
They were frantic and... which i would be too. Seeing the horses and everything going on," said James Purdy, Selah resident.
The combination of dry grass and high winds caused the fire to spread faster than normal. Property owners were heard yelling for fire trucks to get there as fast as possible.
About fifteen minutes after we arrived, firefighters arrived to help protect the properties. At this point the fire began to move east going around the main structures, and hopping a fence about a half mile away. The smoke could been seen from Selah when it first began, which prompted good Samaritan James Purdy to leap into action.
"We seen them running around with horses and everything, had to good samaritan, come out and help them and... I don't mind helping people, that's what i do i guess," said Purdy
It took James ten to fifteen minutes to get up to the fire when he saw the smoke. Once we got far enough away from the danger zone, he gave his best wishes to the people he met today to help..
"hopefully they get it out and no houses go up or nobody gets hurt"
Four helicopters and three planes were called in to take care of this fire and to make sure that these houses stay safe.
The Yakima Valley chapter of the American Red Cross has opened an emergency evacuation shelter for those who are being evacuated. The shelter is at the Selah Civic Center, located at 216 south 1st street.

Where Pell Falls Short
In the last year, Republicans and Democrats embraced budget plans to provide more funds for Pell Grants, and elite colleges captured considerable attention with a flurry of plans to expand aid to students. But a report being released today has a sober message: For the students at the bottom of the income ladder, all of these well meaning changes have failed to make a dent in underlying problems.
The report, "Window of Opportunity: Targeting Federal Grant Aid to Students With the Lowest Incomes," argues not surprisingly for increased support for Pell Grants. But the report also argues that the way grants are awarded needs to change in ways that would favor the students from the poorest families. Currently, formulas for determining aid eligibility are based in part on an appropriate family contribution, with the lowest income students ending up with zero as the expected contribution.
While praising the concept of the Pell Grant and its history, the report says that "the ability of the Pell Grant to serve as the true foundation of financial aid for low-income students has steadily declined." The report, written by Courtney McSwain, was issued by the Institute for Higher Education Policy on behalf of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, with backing from the Lumina Foundation for Education.
The report builds the case for changes in Pell by noting that the program -- the largest federal effort to help low-income students afford a higher education -- has not kept up with college costs, and that many students have need that significantly outpaces what Pell can finance.
For instance, in 2005-6 (when both tuition and the Pell Grant maximum had yet to reach the current levels, $4,731 for the latter), the average Pell Grant recipient had more than $4,500 in need remaining to attend college after the Pell Grant, all aid from all available sources, and the expected family contribution. While loans were probably used to make up the difference, the student population being served is so poor that loans may not be seen as an option by some -- and the report notes that these data are from students who enrolled, not those who were eligible and did not.
Further, in an era when some top colleges have defined family incomes of up to $180,000 as signifying financial need, the report tries to remind the public that the Pell Grant population (more than 7 million students) is extremely poor. The majority of Pell Grant recipients in 2005-6 had family incomes of $40,000 or less, and 40 percent of recipients who were dependent, traditionally aged students came from families with income of $20,000 or less.
And while Pell Grants are awarded based on economic status, not race or ethnicity, the report shows that the program serves a disproportionate number of minority and disadvantaged students. Black students who are financially dependent on their families, for example, make up about 10 percent of the undergraduate population, but 22 percent of Pell Grant recipients. For Latino students, the figures are 12 and 20 percent. And while only 25 percent of undergraduates have parents whose highest degree is a high school diploma or less, the figure is 41 percent for Pell recipients.
A key question for those wanting to boost the Pell program is whether to focus on the maximum or minimum grant. Eligibility for Pell is phased, so not everyone who is eligible for assistance receives the full grant, and an emphasis on increasing the maximum broadens the pool of those who benefit and increases support across the board. An increase in the minimum would most likely reduce the total number of recipients. The report suggests increases in both, tied to a change in determining family expected contribution, as a "narrowly targeted way to deliver significant aid to the poorest students."
Currently, the maximum Pell Grant is actually whatever maximum is in place as determined by the budget process minus the expected family contribution. Because federal law bars negative expected family contributions, the maximum is just the maximum, since nothing is being subtracted for the lowest income families. But if the law were revised to allow negative expected family contributions of up to $750, for example, the report says, the maximum would go up by that amount for the lowest income students.
Such a shift, the report argues, would result in Pell Grants that are $750 larger for the population of students from families with incomes of $20,000 and below. While a $750 increase for all students receiving Pell Grants might be desirable, it is likely to be seen as too expensive, and the report argues that this policy shift would bring the available aid to those most deserving.
A subtext to the report is to counter the push by the Bush administration to use the Pell program as a jumping off point for aid that isn't based on economic need alone. For example, Pell eligibility is the basis -- but not the sole criterion -- for the new Academic Competitiveness Grant and National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent (SMART) Grant Programs, which have been viewed skeptically by many aid experts. The report accepts the idea that some future additions to Pell may not be large enough to meet every need, but argues that ideas that focus on the "core purpose" of Pell must take precedence.

An English Girl In New York (and San Fran.. and L.A)
Good morning bloggettes and blog-men?!
I hope you are enjoying the turning leaves and crisp air of autumn (although you may well be in a sunny land and if so - lucky you!)
As some of you may know (or scroll down and find out) I went on a mini 'promo' tour of America a few weeks ago- this was mainly to play a few gigs and meet a few people that may want to help us on our way- and a nice little preview of the big tour that we are going to do there next March.
So we had some time to kill and explore and SHOP!
I feel the need to apologise to my drummer at this point as MY shopping ended up on HIS credit card and I am still paying him back...
It's not my fault... it's America's fault... the shops are just TOO good to say no too!
Especially in San Francisco where this mammoth blog begins...
|My favourite shop EVER- Trunk in Lower Haight
Silver also pointed me towards my other new favourite shop round the corner- Swankety Swank
full of more lovely trinkets, upcycled garments and friendly people with much the same independent ethos... I walked away with a gorgeous dusty pink layered lace collar (sadly I didn't get any pictures of this shop!) Walking towards the main high street of Haight Ashbury (also full of gems) I spotted a little sign saying 'vintage and handmade items this way' and I found myself in the wonderful world of the adorable 'Aline's Closet' - I love the way she decorated her shop with beautiful furniture, candles and antique mirrors- not to mention the dolls house above her door... I could live there!
In the Haight I also fell into my new facourite place in the world- AMOEBA RECORDS... Holy wow this place is incredible. EVERY CD, Record, DVD etc you could possibily want in the style of 'Empire Records' complete with a stage in the corner where I just happened to catch my newest 'girl group crush' - Grass Widow playing.
I felt like I was actually in the 70s and it was a pretty powerful place to be- very inspiring and ALL about peace and love. Of course with every alternative town came the crazy people- in abundance... it's a drug fuelled place that I definitely wouldn't live in but makes for a very interesting place to visit and people watch!!
Oh and the gig, although on tiny stage in a laundrette went rather well...
|I'm wearing some S.F purchases- the collar was from Trunk and the Headpiece from P-Kok
We did a great gig at Hotel Cafe - which is dark but a fantastic venue with amazing sound...
|I did say dark... Headpiece by UglyLovely, Dress from Vintage Secret, Adam in Beyond Retro
Oh and L.A's very own bigger version on Ameoba Music (I'm slightly obsessed)
hee hee!
In my defence there was A LOT of graffitti on those walls...
The sun ain't so bad...
Then we spent a week in New York (no I wasn't deported from drawing on the toilet wall!) - where I purchased a good camera for once in my life - about time too! So I will leave you with some snaps from a great 7 days of sights, comedy, hip hop and new friends in the big city!
|When I went to stay in Brooklyn- I was greeted with this sight...
|I joined MC Undakova doing some improv (singing not rapping!) at a Manhattan Hip Hop jam...
|I was blown away by the art at the MOMA- including my favourite- Kandinsky
|I sang/shouted a one note song as part of Yoko Ono's 'art' at the MOMA
|I met the lovely and talented Katelan Foisy who showed me around the Village for a day- we laughed a lot!
Don't you love her sunglasses?! She oozes style and everything I love about New York!
We had brunch (eggs benedict for me) at Yaffa- which you can see is pretty awesome!
Then to Screaming Mimi's vintage shop - which is where Cyndi Lauper used to work and happens to look like her wardrobe. This was the only shop in NYC that let a London blogger take pictures in!
|Katelan and I went a little crazy in Pearl River - a chinese shop full of lanterns, fans, birds, butterflies
and everything you could possibly want - I did and had a lot more to pack after our trip there!
|This was people paying $2 to watch snakes - as you do...
|Patricia Field's shop is AWESOME!
|After a long day of shopping it was high time for a nap on a bed of bread called "Comfort Eating"
which was one of the many pieces of Edible Art at the Last Supper Saloon in Brooklyn!
|We got to make our own edible art out of junk food that Katelan and I named- "Bibically Political"
...which it was.
|The lovely Katelan had an amazing soiree at her beautiful flat full of the loveliest, creative and
inspiring women I have met...complete with homemade cupcakes and pink rose tea! :)
We did a secret gig at Hotel on Rivington which went down a storm even though I was worried how we would be received in this 'bump n grind' r&b nightclub!
I got this hat from my new mecca- Cheap Jacks in NYC - LOVE!
I couldn't help but try out my new camera in the amazing bathroom there!!
We finished the trip with a lovely gig in a lovely venue with my wonderful friend, Kate Sikora who is super talented and beautiful, supporting us...
I wore a great outfit from a NYC designer Julie Schworm who was so kind to lend it to me!
|Kate Sikora and I in the dressing room of Joe's Pub
In other exciting news that I can't help but share-
I signed a contract for a licensing deal in Europe with World Connection!!!
My song was used in this GORGEOUS fashion film for Beautiful Soul's new stunning collection:
Beautiful Soul SS:11 Believe. from oliver Prout on Vimeo.
Eco-aware fashion label, Beautiful Soul, teamed up with photographer Oliver Prout, illustrator Zarina Liew and recording artist Gabby Young, to create a short film to celebrate their Spring/Summer 2011 Collection, 'Believe'.
The poster competition was amazing- and will be a blog of it's own very soon. I am soooo excited about them!
I will leave you with some pictures of my family in MerriMaking animal hoods from Gabberdashery and the dogs! Just because...
I started writing this with a good morning and now I can leave by say good afternoon!

A week ago I was anticipating spring and the marshes were all winter-dried grasses – a place of owls, deer, vole runs and lark song. Two full days of rain and now it's all changed. The fields have become a 40-acre sheet of sparkling shallows – a site for duck, migrant waders, gull cries and, for the first time this year, the faintest hint of toad song.
It is steeped in sunlight, yet an acid northerly washes all the air in the valley so that it is stripped of any possible heat or comfort. Instead the landscape is bathed in cold brilliance and I notice in some dykes there is still a surface crust of frost. Over the entire expanse of water are black-headed gulls, many of them now with the tell-tale chocolate hoods of breeding plumage. The birds create the soundtrack for this new place and sustain a perpetual gruff wavering laughter with an undertow of query or surprise in the collective voice. Their movements are immensely buoyant, a white blade on each forewing glinting like mica in the sun. The deep beats create a pace that is adjusted perfectly to the speed of the wind so that the birds are neither blown backwards, nor do they advance forwards, but row slowly across the same wet spot, as if a perpetual non-progress carried its own mysterious rewards.
As I stand to take in the complex wetland scene I realise that it is as mutable as its predecessor. To the north a great hammerhead of cloud grinds south all blue and black at its upper levels and to write I have to stand feet planted apart, back hunched to the wind, the hail rattling loudly on my down jacket. Then as quickly as it came, the squall is swept on and behind come heavens of dancing blue. The sun returns. Every now and then the gusts die, just momentarily the air thickens and there is the slightest promise of something warmer.

BLACKSBURG, Va. -- A pair of University of Tennessee women's track & field athletes came up short Saturday at the Virginia Tech Last Chance Invitational in a final attempt to hit automatic qualifying marks for next weekend's NCAA Indoor Championships.
Junior Jessica Reust (Knoxville, Tenn.) and sophomore Felicia Guliford (Gallup, N.M.) travelled to the meet in hopes of snaring the necessary marks to gain entrance to the March 11 and 12 national championship meet in Fayetteville, Ark. Unfortunately, neither was able to hit the automatic standard in her event.
Reust had the first opportunity in the pole vault, but the Farragut High School product managed only a 12-8.75/3.88m clearance and placed third in the competition. That was below her career best of 13-1/3.99m that she established last weekend at the Southeastern Conference Indoor Championships. That mark is a provisional qualifying height, but it ranks her only 26th in the nation, which will not get her into the NCAA meet. The automatic height is 13-9.25/4.20m.
As for Guliford, who was a double victor at the SEC meet in the 3,000 and 5,000 meters, her second-place readout of 9:29.75 was a career best, topping her conference effort of 9:34.46. That mark, however, is short of the 9:16.00 clocking that is required for automatic admission into the NCAA meet. Guliford's most-recent performance moves her to 28th on the NCAA provisional qualifying list, which won't be enough to merit an invitation.
After having a big weekend at SECs, Felicia came back and ran the best she could today," UT Head Coach J.J. Clark said. "She gave it all she had today and ran a personal best. I'm proud of what she's done during the indoor season."
Clark and his NCAA qualifiers will head to Fayetteville on Wednesday to take part in the NCAA meet, which will be held at the Randal Tyson Track Center on the University of Arkansas campus.

A Utah County man is being held in jail after he tried to break into an Orem church an was stopped by its gun-toting pastor.
Robert Brooks is pastor of Victory Baptist Church in Orem, and lives in the church basement.
A police probable cause statement filed in Provo's 4th District Court on Monday said Brooks was awakened by a loud banging noise outside the church at 2 a.m. last Friday and went to investigate.
That's when he found a 29-year-old man pulling on the exterior doors on the south side of the church trying to get in. The man, who appeared intoxicated, told Brooks he was looking for work, court paper say.
Armed with a pistol, Brooks got the man to lie on the ground and called police, the documents state.
Officers arrested the man, who admitted to being "on something." During a search, officers found the man had a bottle of prescription medication that appeared to have been prescribed to another person, the documents state.
The man is being held in the Utah County jail for investigation of public intoxication, drug possession and drug distribution charges. Bail is set at $20,000.
Court records show the man is currently on probation after being convicted of theft charges earlier this year.

The Ducks have been assessed a one scholarship reduction over the next two seasons (meaning a cut from 85 scholarships to 84), three-year probation and limitations to their recruitment of prospective student athletes.
Most importantly, the Ducks will see no restriction to post-season play or forfeiture of past games.
"We pledged our full cooperation from the beginning. We worked tirelessly to get to the facts and we worked cooperatively. We're glad that the facts are out today and that we can finally talk about it," Oregon athletic director Rob Mullens said at a press conference Wednesday.
Schools are given 15 days to appeal the NCAA's findings following the dissemination of penalties, but Mullens says the school will not seek such process out.
Maybe most intriguingly, former head coach Chip Kelly was issued an 18-month show-cause penalty, meaning the former Oregon is not employable by an NCAA school until after the 2014 season.
"He was a great coach. He was committed to compliance. I think that will be his legacy," Mullens said.
"As I have I stated before, the NCAA investigation and subsequent ruling had no impact on my decision to leave Oregon for Philadelphia. I have also maintained throughout that I had every intention to cooperate with the NCAA's investigation, which I did," Kelly said in a statement.
For the next three recruiting cycles the Ducks will also be limited in signing, down from 25 to 24. The number of official campus visits and staff evaluation days over that period have also been reduced and a ban on subscription recruiting services will be in place.
"Any time you lose the opportunity to have people visit your campus, particularly given what we have to showcase, it'll have an impact. You want to have the full complement of scholarships, even one matters," Mullens said of the penalties.
Today brings closure for a case that was 27 months in the making, dating back to a March 3 2011 Yahoo Sports story reporting UO's relationship with Willie Lyles, a talent evaluator from Texas who had been integral in the Ducks' recruiting for the past two cycles.
"The length of the process and the process itself had some punitive measures to it. In the end I don't think the facts tarnish anything," Mullens said.

Dog adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Our main requirments are a vet reference if you do not have one please get one and have one in place. And/or two-three personal references. And and home visit or if that is not possible home photos.
Our fee covers you getting a healthy dog at the time of adoption but please if you really think 250.00 is too high for a dog that has been living as a memeber of a family and is healthy and UTD on all medical issues, mirochipped and is a well mannered potential family member then maybe one of our babies are not meant for you. We put time, care, love and transport these animals to vet appointments to be seen and cared for not to mention they are fed good food, trained, spayed or neutered, microchipped, protected and at the end ready to find that perfect fur-ever family for them.
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

Why I voted in favor of a two-year moratorium on school closures.
Tuesday evening, the Edmonton Public School Board voted 7-2 on the motion for a renewable moratorium on two year school closure.
I have received many thought-provoking letters from residents indicating their support or their concerns with the motion. Some believed that it reduced the board's flexibility and opportunity to make decisions. Others thought that the moratorium might not be long enough. There are still many unanswered questions from residents about why we are closing schools, why we are opening so many new schools, why only certain sectors were targeted and if the district has a comprehensive future plan for space needs.
If we did not pass the moratorium yesterday, we could be facing more closure recommendations as soon as next month.
As a district, we are just starting the tri-level discussions to move forward and we have an unprecedented opportunity to work with our partners in the Province, the City, and with Edmonton Catholic. Mayor Mandel and the city are interested in working together and a moratorium shows that we will be partners in good faith in this process as opposed to closing schools with one hand while trying to revitalize neighbourhoods with the other.
We also have began the process of allowing our community schools equal support (circa Trustee Huff's motion last year to work towards equal support for community schools), reviewing our central organization and elements of site-based decision making, and I feel it would not be prudent to move ahead at this time until we have our ducks in a row.
So what does a two-year renewable moratorium on school closures do?
It directs the EPSB Board and administration to work together on creative solutions instead of school closures and examine the complete costs of school closures. It gives clarity of direction from our board that this is the direction that we would like to move and that closing 19 schools in 10 years requires us to pause and revisit our needs.
From conversations with my colleagues I know our board isn't afraid of making tough decisions, but we just want to make sure that they are tough, but fully-informed decisions.
The data surrounding the performance or quality of education for students who attend small schools is inconclusive. The cost savings accrued to the district from closing a school are unclear, if there are any. With an absence of clear motive and justification, why continue to aggressively close schools that we the taxpayers have built, paid for, and been using for years? Is it because space is being inappropriately measured, often failing to allocate for before and after school care, libraries, computer rooms, etc.? If schools have to close, where, and how many of them? By my rough estimate we would need to close almost half of the schools in the city to balance our plant operations deficit. Or is it because we lack the proper operational funding from the proper places to provide the space and services required for learning?
Many schools I have spoken to have said that they could have dramatically higher enrollment if we cut the red tape surrounding the limits on these small schools. Many families told me that the one choice our district undervalues is the choice of the community school, and the very valid reasons that families select it. It gives our district a chance to review many of our spaces and work with community groups and other levels of government to take into account the needs of our communities and create the best possible educational outcomes for every student.
We need to make sure that we are being fair and consistent with everyone, especially with the outcome of a decision is as serious as a school closure. This is an infinitely more complicated issue that cannot be simplified to a false dichotomy of "Buildings or kids."
The elephant in the room here is that we are running two public education systems with competing infrastructure needs, competing for the same students. (Both Catholic and non-Catholic students attend both Separate and Public schools.) Our tri-level discussions give us an opportunity to look for collaborative opportunities with the Separate system.
When given a problem, it is crucial that we make absolutely clear that we are asking the right questions. A moratorium gives us time to make sure we are seeking the right answers to the real problem.
As Trustee Christopher "CKLS" Spencer quoted:

[Progressive education]
This episode is from the WNYC archives. It may contain language which is no longer politically or socially appropriate.
Seldes discusses a comic act by Sam Levinson, in which he jokes about progressive education. He also mentions a quip made by Dinah Shore. Seldes seems to be a supporter of progressive education. This leads to a discussion of people's willingness to believe rumors or jokes as fact.
He then discusses an Indian friends perception that the picture of the American woman in literature is wholly negative, she wondered if this portrayal was accurate or the result of authors who do not provide an accurate portrayal of all.
Seldes uses the example of the portrayal of Victorian woman to illustrate that writers do not write accurate accounts, rather they create "types."

Gainesville Police Investigating Fourth Murder this Year Near Southern Pines Apartments
Published July 15th, 2013
Loading Video...
GAINESVILLE, Fla.- It's not being called the safest of neighborhoods.
The majority of murders in Gainesville this year have all been in one community

Southern Pines Resident, Viola Moore says she doesn't live in a terrible neighborhood.
"It's not as bad as it sounds it's a roof over your head, it's one incident, another incident made it bad for the rest of us."
But it's more than just one incident.
There have been a total of four murders this year in Gainesville and 3 of them including Hamilton's occurred in and around Southern Pines.
Southern Pines management says they hired security for the complex following the January murder on their property.

Texas Executes a Killer of 2 Men
Published: August 21, 1993
HUNTSVILLE, Tex., Aug. 20— A former laborer was executed by injection early today for killing a convenience store clerk and a transient in 1980.
Carl Kelly, 34, went to his death after the United States Supreme Court rejected without dissent a late-hour appeal.
"I'm an African warrior born to breathe and born to die," he said in a final statement. As the lethal drugs began flowing, Mr. Kelly said, "I feel the poison running now."
Mr. Kelly was put to death for the murder of Steven Pryor, an 18-year-old clerk at a 7-Eleven in Waco. Another man, David Riley, a transient who was asleep in Mr. Pryor's car in the parking lot when Mr. Pryor was seized inside the store, was also killed.
Mr. Pryor and Mr. Riley were robbed of $30, taken to a park in Mr. Pryor's car and shot. Their bodies were thrown over a 60-foot cliff.
Mr. Kelly's accomplice, Thomas Graves, was arrested while driving Mr. Pryor's car, and Mr. Kelly's wallet was found in the trunk. Mr. Pryor, who was working the late-night job to help pay his way through school, was a diabetic with a rare blood type, and his blood was found on Mr. Kelly's shoes.
Mr. Graves, who was 20 at the time, pleaded guilty to both killings, as well as to the slaying of a man the previous day. He received life in prison.
Mr. Kelly said that he had been high on drugs at the time of the crime. He confessed to involvement in the crime but refused a plea bargain, choosing instead to go on trial.
On appeal, Mr. Kelly's lawyers challenged the legality of his confession. Mr. Kelly said he had confessed only to being with Mr. Graves when the shootings occurred. He denied firing the fatal shots.

Eminem's Relapse 2 is the Most Anticpated 4th Quarter Release Says XXL Poll
The results are in. Ten days ago we asked readers to tell us what fourth quarter album they are most amped about, and a majority of fans have voted for Eminem's Relapse 2.
Of the close to 8,200 readers that weighed in, 33 percent elected Slim Shady. Close behind with 30 percent of the overall votes is 50 Cent's long delayed fourth album, Before I Self Destruct. 1,878 people voted for Young Jeezy's Thug Inspiration 103 and 1,163 for Lil Wayne's rock-influenced Rebirth project.
This makes the second win in a row for Eminem. When we asked fans who delivered the best verse on the star-studded "Forever" track, 69 percent of voters gave it to the Detroit lyricist.
As of press time there is no release date for Em's Relapse 2. Last month, Paul Rosenberg, the rap superstar's manager, told XXLMag.com that there is no truth to Relapse 2's rumored November 17 drop date. –Max G

"This is the greatest B&B that I've ever stayed at. Its emphasis on health and nutrition, plus the wonderful ambiance, ocean views, and basic serenity of the setting, made my stay one of most restful, that I've ever experienced. Ed and Di are not only extraordinary host, they are a fantastic source of medical and holistic knowledge on stress reduction, exercise, proper nutrition and good health. This was my second stay and I will return.

The services (in our case, massages) were a great inclusion in the B&B package! The view of the ocean was very pleasant. Ed and Dianna were so nice. We will keep their B&B in mind for any future vacations in that area.

Great place to stay. Proprietors are very welcoming and good hosts; location is very private and quiet; and facilities are amazing (love the steam room!). Would definitely stay again. Also love the proximity to the highway - makes site-seeing up and down the coast easy.

For ClinkShrink -- and all the Introverts I Know and Love
Our society values the qualities that go with extroversion. You're supposed to be social, to get out, to collaborate, to gain energy from social events, and if you don't, damn it, well you're an introvert, or shy, or avoidant, or socially phobic. "I wish Johnny got out more." "I wish granny would go to the senior center." We grow up believing that boys shouldn't wear dresses, that it's your fault if you're fat, and that it's of the utmost importance be outgoing. Now introverts often do play well with others (Clink, in fact, plays very well, but don't ever try to get her to go out with you after she's in her pj's). So I know several people who have gained some comfort from the book "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can't Stop Talking" (that would be me, except of course on our podcasts where Clink just won't shut up). So ClinkShrink enjoyed Susan Cain's book and even wrote a review of it HERE. I found this TED talk by Susan Cain -- it's cute, funny, and insightful, so I thought I would share it. If you have other TED talks you've enjoyed, please do give me the links. They don't need to be about psychiatry, but I enjoy funny and thought-provoking. Thanks to Laszlo, I found this on his facebook feed.

I was looking on an app website, and to my surprise it said tales of monkey episode 1 on Iphone ISO, I thought they must be on about the IPAD version, but I checked the appstore and yes its true. although it gunna cost £4.99 per episode
21 Comments - Linear Discussion: Classic Style
I agree with you, it would be better as a universal app, and I would like someone to do a video review on the app, but Ive been reading alot of mixed reviews on the appstoreJosejulio;556921 said:It is a shame that is not an universal app, pay once, play on ipad and iphone.
I just finished the game (at least the first chapter which so far is all there is) on my iphone 4s. The game played VERY smoothly and was absolutely beautiful. Could not tell a difference between PC version. The animations were flawless. I was especially impressed with the dialogue which sounds perfect and is exactly in sync with the animations. The only complaint I have is that the controls to touch on an Item or interact with object was a bit tricky since everything is so small, but you get used to it and after a couple of touches it works. Everything else is perfect. I really could not believe that you could play a game like this on iphone! I am not sure how to take a video of it. If someone could let me know, I would be happy to try it.
In response to the accessing objects, that is tricky. They added a wheel at the bottom of the screen that you can turn to select the different items that are selectable. You press the wheel to interact with the item. It is a bit tricky to get used to but it works and is only mildly frustrating at times. 90% of the time, it is not a problem.Silverwolfpet;557063 said:I'm curious ^^ Can anyone post a quick gameplay vid? How do you access all the tiny details with your huge finger on the iPhone's screen?
Wow! Impressive!
As for your question: if you have a video camera, or a good webcam, you can easily just film the screen for a minute or two, while playing the game.
Monkey Island for the iPhone is essentially the same as the rest of the ports to the series. I currently have the iPhone 4, not the new one and the game can sometimes be a little laggy, but I've experienced lagging issues on every first episode that I've played this game with on any device. So it's either my phone or the game. I'm assuming it's the game.
Overal, the game is still just as fun, I just wish the lag issues would go away across every Episode 1 for every system that the game is on!!
Guys just letting you know that the 1st episode of Tales of Monkey Island on the IPhone has become FREE!!! Today, so grab it as soon as you can
This ran really well on my iphone 4 was quite surprised would have tought it ran badly since i don´t own a 4s
Anyone know when monkey island 4 is going to available for iphone. The first three came out really quickly - but now I am waiting, waiting, waiting - and can't wait much longer - I am having withdrawals. Such an great game.

Over the years we've developed a sweaty, sticky, oozey and disturbing kind of love for Shuttle and its stylish Small Form Factor PCs. I'm sure you can empathise.
The latest model to have us secreting amorous fluids of various colours and consistencies is the XPC P2 3700G which proves anything a desktop can do an SFF can match and look sexier doing it.
Designed targeting the richest most hardcore of all gamers, the 3700G is based on the Barebone SD37P2 and maxes out in every possible direction. For a start it features an Intel Core 2 Extreme Processor X6800 (currently the fastest CPU on the market), comes loaded with four (count 'em) gigabytes of RAM and graphics are handled by no less than nVidia's monster GeForce 7950GX2 'SLI-in-1' card.
Furthermore a 400GB Samsung SpinPoint T Series hard drive provides capacious storage while the Intel 975X chipset is fitted with high definition audio and 1000Mbps Ethernet while a 16x dual DVD writer and crazy 22-in-1 memory card reader finish off the package.
Naturally with a machine of such extreme oomph, the price tag is going to be horrendous and at 3044 euros it fulfils our worst fantasies. That said lower configurations are available with base models starting from just under £800 and you will get a two year warranty thrown in.
Even so why compromise (or have a house/car/shirt on your back) when you can get something as deliciously OTT as the 3700G right now…?
