St. Simons Island, GA
Nov. 15 - 18, 2012
Tuition: $695
This is a workshop for those interested in an intensive retreat, but with the affordability of a state-side weekend jaunt. It is small and intimate, held in a private home within walking distance to the beach, and within a short bike ride to the village, pier, and lighthouse.
The cost is $695 for the workshop tuition, heavy appetizers Thursday night, and Friday/Saturday dinners. Breakfasts and lunches are not covered, partly to allow the group to venture out on their own and write at a cafe, to grab a sandwich and head to the beach, or to enjoy their breakfast bright and early in the garden. Those of you who are from out-of-state can opt to stay in one of the rental homes for $100 - $135 + tax/night, depending on room size and shared or private bathroom.
Your homework: Submit up to 2,500 words prior to the workshop. Melissa will compile the group's files and send them out as one document, so that the group can read each others' work before the workshop sessions. You will not be asked to critique the other manuscripts by hand, but please read each one before you come and write down any comments or questions you would like to ask the other writers and Joyce.
AIRPORT and LOGISTICS: Fly into JAX (Jacksonville, FL) or SAV (Savannah, GA). Both are a 1-hour shuttle ride away, which is roughly $100 for up to 6 riders. Last year, students asked us to pass on the idea that anyone coming to the island should tack on a day at the beginning and end for relaxation. It's too beautiful to miss!

According to paleontologists from the University of Chicago and the University of Michigan, long-extinct Bandringa sharks migrated downstream from freshwater swamps to the ocean to spawn in shallow coastal waters and left behind fossil evidence of one of the earliest known shark nurseries.
The long-snouted Bandringa shark (Elasmobranchii, Chondrichthyes) – a bottom-feeding predator that lived in an ancient river delta system in what is today the Upper Midwest – is likely one of the earliest close relatives of modern sharks.
It resembled present-day sawfish and paddlefish, with a spoon-billed snout up to half its body length. Juveniles were 4 to 6 inches long and grew into adults of up to 10 feet.
Bandringa sharks were discovered in 1969 and soon became one of the most prized fossils from the well-known Mazon Creek deposits in northern Illinois.
Until now, paleontologists believed that the genus Bandringa contained two species – B. rayi and B. herdinae, one that lived in freshwater swamps and rivers and another that lived in the shallow ocean.

While undertaking Family Research, during 2011, I discovered that James Christopher Poyle, previously unknown to us as a member of my wife's extended family, passed away at Marchants Hill Camp, on 9th April 1955. I would apprecate hearing from anyone who might have known anything about James and/or his life while he was a resident there. Many thanks in anticipation of a reply!

David [Wessman] has a theory on why : "The particular skills required are of a higher order than the eye-hand co-ordination and fast reflexes of standard shooters. It also requires quick thinking and problem solving on a very high level of situational awareness. All of this is compounded by the fact that you are in 3D space in which you can move in any direction, and threats come from everywhere. It's a sad, true fact that many people have difficulty navigting a 3D space. Not many publishers are willing to risk the amount of money it takes to make a triple-A game when they know the majority of the public won't buy the game because they're incapable of playing it." '

Among the injured was the miners' president Mr Arthur Scargill who was detained in Rotherham Infirmary last night for observation. His condition was not serious and hospital staff said he was suffering from head, arm and leg injuries. He was taken to hospital amid conflicting versions of how his injuries were sustained.
Mr Scargill said he believed he was struck by a police shield from behind. The assistant chief constable of South Yorkshire, Mr Tony Clement, said he was standing only a few yards from the miners' president and saw him fall on a railway banking. He said Mr Scargill struck himself accidentally against what looked like a railway sleeper. Another account came from a miner, Mr Stephen Hallow from Silverwood Colliery, who said that the police charged towards them. He said he saw Mr Scargill on the floor out of the corner of his eye. As far as he was concerned he had been given a "good leathering".
Police riot squads were used and several mounted police charges were made. Throughout the day missiles of every size and type were hurled towards police lines. At one point the police said that two petrol bombs had been thrown. It seemed later that these had been canisters or bottles filled with diesel fuel.
Miners began converging on the plant at 3am yesterday. Some had travelled from Scotland, Wales, the North-east of England as well as Yorkshire. At one stage they practically overwhelmed police units. There were pitched battles inside the coking plant for the first time since picketing began, and the frustration on both sides spilled over into sickening scenes of miners being batoned and of police being attacked with bricks, slivers of glass as well as the containers of fuel.
Although the police lines eventually held, officers did react violently. Truncheons were drawn and used on individuals by snatch squads. The barrage of rocks, bricks and glass was kept up for hours. For most of this time policemen stood with riot shields to fend off the missiles. Charges were also made against the pickets with policemen lashing out with truncheons. Mr Clement said later that it was a miracle no one had been killed.

So i got the ufc 105 dvd and i cannot find andre winners fight on there?anyone know why it was cut?
So i got the ufc 105 dvd and i cannot find andre winners fight on there?anyone know why it was cut?
Only possible reason I could think would be because of the extra punches Dre landed while Delgado was out.Pretty lame cutting the whole fight though if you ask me.
It was no worse than Rampage's extra punches on Wanderlei when he was out.They never cut that fight off the DVD so they shouldn't have with this either.
I read they also edited Hendo's diving punch on Bisping from the replays on the UFC 100 DVD aswell.
really?!?! thats strange!???
I have the DVD where Babalu chokes that dude for waaaay too long!! So surely they could of just edited it....
They will not have cut it for extra punches, give over.
Why else would they have cut it though?
It was a first round highlight reel KO.UFC loves that shit but they cut it from the DVD?
If it was a bad stoppage like the first Aaron Riley-Shane Nelson I'd sort of understand it being edited but it wasn't a bad stoppage either.
WTF! I was gonna buy it just for that fight, I was 10 mins late and missed it on the night. Bastards!
My website now has a new domain, check it out - www.modernviolentgentlemen.com
'Andre Winners' fight got cut?.. What the fucks that about??
Anyone see me on the DVD ??
Is ready to die for that inch.
I dont think Andre would like being called a "winnet"?
funny typo

All research groups | Research subject areas
E-mail Peer Support:
Join us on Facebook:
LSE wants your studying and working environment to be welcoming and inclusive. Yet at times, this environment can be challenging and tough.
It is at these challenging and tough times that it can be useful to speak to somebody who has been through something similar and the LSE Peer Support Programme offers just that
The Peer Supporters are from a range of backgrounds and experiences, some who share your "lived experience", so you will find:
While all Peer Supporters are available to you as an LSE student, you may be particularly keen to connect with someone with a similar shared 'lived experience' to your own.
Students from a variety of different backgrounds volunteer as Peer Supporters and the programme seeks to be reflective of the diversity of the LSE student body as a whole.
The aim of the Peer Support programme at LSE is to provide student-led, informal and confidential assistance to all LSE students who would like some emotional support, help and reassurance. Around 20 students - graduates and undergraduates - are trained each year to become Peer Supporters.
They can be found in LSE Halls of Residence and on campus.
To find out about the current group of Peer Supporters, including how to contact them, see the 'Peer Supporters 2016-17' page.
Peer Support is a proven successful programme which runs at many universities in the UK and the US. It provides students with a space to talk and be listened to. It can sometimes be hard to talk to friends and family about certain issues, therefore Peer Support provides a crucial service for students to talk to other students about anything they are worried about.
Peer Supporters are not counsellors, nor can they provide you with solutions to your problems. However Peer Supporters have been specifically selected and trained in listening, questioning and responding skills to ensure they are able to help other students to reach their own solutions. It can be helpful to talk to someone who is non-judgemental, impartial and outside of your situation.
'In training we shared problems that we were dealing with at the time. The process of having someone really listening to me was not only incredibly liberating, it was empowering. It inspired me to overcome the worries I had and to want to help others through theirs. The gift of listening is indescribably valuable.'
Alastair (a Peer Supporter)
You can also read more about the scheme on the webpage from the 2017 Peer Support Graduation page.
Peer Supporters are available and happy to listen to any problems.
These are some of the issues that Peer Supporters have supported their fellow students with:
Peer Support is now in its fifth year at LSE. The current group of Peer Supporters - 22 undergraduates and graduates from a range of LSE departments - completed their 35 hour training programme in 2015 and receive ongoing training and supervision throughout the academic year with the LSE Student Counselling Service.
For the 2015/16 academic year Peer Supporters will be based in Passfield Hall, Carr Saunders Hall, Bankside, High Holborn, Northumberland House, Roseberry Hall, Sidney Webb Hall.
Most Peer Supporters live in a Hall, but some live outside in private accommodation.
The 22 Peer Supporters are available to any student, wherever you might live.
You can arrange to meet a Peer Supporter on or near campus, in or near an LSE hall of residence.
All Peer Supporters can be contacted by any student regardless of their year of study, whether they are living in a hall of residence or in private accommodation.
You can contact any Peer Supporter you wish or you might prefer to contact Peer Supporters at your Hall if there are some attached to it.
Any LSE student can contact any Peer Supporter.
We are holding the training at the end of the summer term, specifically the end of May / beginning of June.
It is compulsory to attend all Peer Support training if you want to become an LSE Peer Supporter.
we are holding the training at the end of the summer term; end of May/ beginning of June.
Feel free to contact any Peer Supporter by e-mail to arrange a time and place to speak to them.
This is the preferred method of contact as it allows Peer Supporters to set aside some time for you so that you have their complete focus.
You can find the e-mails of specific Peer Supporters by clicking here.
Alternatively, you can email the Peer Support Programme more generally on email@example.com and a Peer Supporter will get back to you.

The Shadows of the MoonModel a total solar eclipse using the real sun!
- a barbeque skewer
- a round object, approximately 1" (2.5 cm) in diameter, that you can stick the skewer into (e.g., a Styrofoam ball; a small potato)
- a round, light-colored object with a smooth surface, about 4" (10 cm) in diameter (e.g., a rubber ball )
- a sunny day
- a friend
To Do and Notice
- Find a sunny outdoor spot. Stick the skewer into the small object to make a handle. This will represent the moon.
- One person should hold the larger object, which represents the earth, near the ground. The other person should pace off ten feet (3 m) from the model earth in the direction of the sun, and then position the model moon directly in the path of the sunlight shining on the model earth. You should see a small dark shadow on the model earth surrounded by a larger, lighter, somewhat fuzzy shadow.
- Slowly move the moon so that the shadow travels across the model earth. The moon's shadow moves across the earth from west to east.
- Slowly move your model moon farther away from the model earth. Notice that at some point the dark inner shadow disappears.
What's Going On?
The ratio of the large object to the small object and the distance between them is a fairly accurate model of the earth-moon system.
Anyone on earth within the path of the small dark shadow, called the umbra, will experience a total solar eclipse. The path of totality is quite narrow, however, often something like a hundred miles (160 km) across, which explains why most eclipse chasers have to travel significant distances. Within the lighter, larger shadow, called the penumbra, the sun is only partially blocked, and anyone within the penumbral path will see a partial eclipse.

natural light, 2 coats
There are a billion frosty rose nail polishes out there, so if you miss out on this one, don't worry about finding something similar in the future. The color isn't really new or unique. However, I think this would be a nice color to wear on your toes to a wedding or something; it's feminine and elegant. The name is great too!
Would you wear it?

Iraqi anger over 'intrusive' inspectors
Two senior Iraqi officials have reacted angrily after being held for several hours at a site in Baghdad that was sealed off and searched by United Nations weapons inspectors.
The incident came as the weapons inspectors widened and intensified their searches within the country.
General Hossam Mohammad Amin, the head of Iraq's own arms monitoring directorate, and the visiting Iraqi UN ambassador, Mohammad al-Douri, were among those detained during the search.
For about six hours, the inspectors prevented anyone entering or leaving the site, as they filmed and searched cars - as well as looking inside handbags.
Mr al-Douri told reporters that the behaviour of the inspectors was unacceptable and that they should allow people to go in and out in a more civilised way.
General Amin described the move as "maximum intrusiveness", but said Iraq did not want to complain officially in case it was interpreted as opposition to the search itself.
The BBC's Caroline Hawley says there are now just over three weeks left before the inspectors have to report back to the UN Security Council, and Iraq is anxious to be judged to be co-operating fully.
UN teams are now at work from Basra in the far south of Iraq to Mosul in the north, where they have just set up a regional base.
Our correspondent says that five-and-a-half weeks into their searches, there is no sign so far that they have found any incriminating evidence.
Inspectors are enforcing the UN Security Council resolution 1441, which orders Iraq to reveal any chemical, biological or nuclear programmes or long-range missile projects. Baghdad denies having such programmes or weapons.
Missile test
Sunday also saw Israel carry out a test launch of its Arrow missile interceptors as part of its preparations for a potential US-led war in Iraq.
The missiles were fired westward over the Mediterranean from a coastal military base at Palmachim, south of Tel Aviv, witnesses said.
Four of the interceptors were fired at once - the first time a salvo has been launched - and Israeli media have reported the test was a success, although the military has said the results have to be fully evaluated.
It is hoped that the Arrow, the most advanced missile defence system of its kind in the world, will bring down Scud missiles in the event of an aerial attack by Iraq.
Israel's missile launch is its biggest test so far of the new air defence system - established in the wake of the 1991 Gulf War when Israel was hit by almost 40 Iraqi Scud missiles.
Although the Arrow system has been hugely expensive, some experts say it is still not sufficient to protect Israel's population from attack.
A civilian protection programme has also been set up to avoid the panic that caused chaos and several deaths during the previous conflict.
The test coincides with a Turkish newspaper report that says Turkey has positioned tanks in the Kurdish area of northern Iraq in apparent expectation of a conflict.
Turkey's Prime Minister Abdullah Gul is continuing his efforts to find a diplomatic resolution to the conflict over Iraq, holding talks with Arab neighbours.

ALVA, Okla. – In near freezing condition with snow flurries, Chase Phelps recorded his team-high fourth win of the season, throwing seven innings to defeat Mid-America Christian, 8-3, at Ranger Field on Thursday. The win advanced the Rangers to 11-9 overall and to 7-3 in the Sooner Athletic Conference.
Northwestern scored first, with two runs in the third inning, as Tom Huddleston reached base on a lead-off double and scored on Chris Williams' double two batters later. Dan Coury followed up Williams' double with one of his own for the Rangers' third double of the inning, plating Williams.
Cody Keiffer hit the two-sacker of the game for the Rangers with two outs in the fourth, advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored when Huddleston was caught between first and second.
Mid-America Christian tied the game at 3-3 in the fifth inning, as they lead off the inning with four straight singles.
Phelps shut down the Evangels in order during the sixth and seventh innings, before Matt Stratton came in to pitch the final eight batters over the eighth and ninth innings.
Northwestern added the go-ahead run in the bottom of the fifth as Coury reached on a dropped fly ball to left field and scored on Steven Fellows single. Anthony Cros scored the second run of that inning, after reaching base on a walk and later scoring on a wild pitch.
Williams began the seventh inning with a lead-off double and scored the first of three more Ranger runs.
Phelps (4-1) allowed nine hits and three runs over three innings. He struck out two batters and issued two walks in 27 at bats. Stratton fanned one in eight batters faced in his two innings of work.
Huddleston, Williams and Clint Dodds each had three hits in the game, while Fellows and Keiffer both had two hits. The Rangers out-hit the Evangels 16 to 10.
Northwestern (11-9, 7-3) returns the trip and heads to Oklahoma City for a doubleheader beginning at 1 p.m. with Mid-America on Saturday.
MISSION STATEMENT: Northwestern Oklahoma State University provides quality educational and cultural opportunities to learners with diverse needs by cultivating ethical leadership and service, critical thinking and fiscal responsibility.

Septorhinoplasty-Finally Doing It After 20 Years! - Troy, MI
I have a dorsal bump made worse by a deviated septum from an injury in College (guy goes to punch a guy at a frat party, guy ducks, hits me)!

A national study that surveyed more than 1,000 school board members and superintendents found that a greater number of school boards are focusing on issues related to student learning and accountability instead of traditional operational issues. "School Boards Circa 2010: Governance in the Accountability Era" also reveals that respondents are putting more emphasis on student achievement than in the past, and have become proactive in their role as the link between the school district administration and the community.
Since the passage of the No Child Left Behind Act in 2001, there has been little research compiled on school board practices. This new study provides national data on who serves on school boards, what board members think about a number of school reform initiatives, how they do their work, how school board elections are carried out, and the nature of the relationship between the school board and the superintendent.
In the United States, there are approximately 14,000 school boards that administer $600 billion in budget spending each year, plan and evaluate education policies that affect nearly 52 million children, and oversee a work force of 6 million employees. The majority of board members surveyed consider budget and funding issues their top priority, followed by boosting achievement and closing achievement gaps between different groups, improving the quality of teaching and leadership, increasing parental involvement, and improving school safety. Nine-hundred responding board members also said they wanted more training on issues like funding, budgets, and legal issues.
The study was conducted by the National School Boards Association, the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, and the Iowa School Boards Foundation.

The dramatic triumph of the communist party in last week's elections raises interesting questions as to whether this marks the emergence of a communism devoted to creating a democratic Nepal in which people of all socio-economic backgrounds can move forward, or will this be another Maoist example of brutality in the name of the state. There is no doubt the people of Nepal were disgusted with its corrupt and inefficient monarchy and wanted the dawn of a new age in which all sectors of society would benefit, but in selecting the Maoist leadership have they entered on a new era of oppression?
The Maoists can digest a form of capitalism much as Chinese Communists have adopted one, but if their neighbor to the north is any example, the Nepal Maoists may find indigestible the components of a democratic society. Most probably the professional Nepal army will soon be transformed into a people's liberation force dedicated to the proposition the Maoist run government can not surrender power in any such thing as a democratic election.
To sum up: its Mao, not Gorbachev.

Hello all,
Yes it's that time of month again, time to be paranoid about your engine Laurie!
When I start up when the car has been in the cold for longer than a day, I get blue smoke on light accerlation for the first minute or two, as I gently drive down the small road I live on, going at about 10 mph. I thought blue smoke was oil, but it must be unburnt diesel, right? Because the engine is too cold to be efficient enough to be burning it? Because it goes away so quickly, and I'm unable to use my glowplugs since one of them is disconnected (it snapped off inside the head). If I use the glowplugs its actually worse; because I have 3 warm cylinders and one stone cold, so it runs like a sack of crap whilst they even out, at least when it starts with no plugs it runs a bit lumpy for a few seconds then smooths out.
So two questions really. Can someone please confirm to me that what I said make sense, and its just unburnt diesel? And secondly is this harming my engine? I can't imagine it likes being run stone cold, but how much is it going to be to remove the head to remove the broken glow plug? It may be worse for me since the car only gets driven Fri-Sun, I'm away during the week.
Thanks in advance,

"OPERATION MAJESTIC-12 is a TOP SECRET Research and Development/ Intelligence operation responsible directly and only to the President of the United States. Operations of the project are carried out under control of the MAJESTIC-12 ( MAJIC-12 ) Group which was established by a special classified executive order of President Truman on 24 September 1947"
Truth Seekers and Light workers:
Richard Doty was a big focus of the Mirage Men book and documentary. Doty was a special agent for counter-intelligence in the air force. He was part of the special investigations unit for over 8 years. He has admitted giving false information to Paul Benowitz via Bill Moore to steer Benowitz away from analyzing radio signals which were top secret.
In Stephen Greer's new book Unacknowledged Doty goes on the record to say that counter intelligence even resorted so far as to dress humans as aliens to scare those who they decided had seen too much.
More about JASON and the Collins Elite. Greer claims that there are religious fanatics among them. Nick Redfern's book Final Events explores this in more detail.
can we believe?
first the history lesson....
As payment for Israeli participation in the Suez Crisis of 1956, France provided nuclear expertise and constructed a reactor complex for Israel at Dim0na capable of large-scale plutonium production and reprocessing. The United States discovered the facility by 1958 and it was a subject of continual discussions between American presidents and Israeli prime ministers. Israel used delay and deception to at first keep the United States at bay, and later used the nuclear option as a bargaining chip for a consistent American conventional arms supply. After French disengagement in the early 1960s, Israel progressed on its own, including through several covert operations, to project completion. -UFAF Conterproliferation papers This paper is a history of the Israeli nuclear weapons program drawn from a review of unclassified sources. The gist is that Israel has been able to use its arsenal as a deterrent to the Arab world while not technically violating American nonproliferation requirements.
Israel cuts links with the BBC
DURING THE COURSE OF 1962-1963, a significant shift took place in the
attitude of the Western powers, particularly the United States, toward
Israel's nuclear development. Until then, American policy was
characterized by moderation and a low profile. Change began several
months after Ben-Gurion's visit to the United States and his meeting
with President Kennedy in May, 1961. Thereafter, the American government
exerted increasingly intense and unrelenting pressure to allow ongoing
supervision of the nuclear reactor in Dim0na.
Notes on President Kennedy's assassination:
| 1. Kennedy was pressuring for a full
inspection of Dim0na, which some in the CIA and Mossad couldn't allow.
Soon after taking office in 1961, President Kennedy pressured Israel to
allow an inspection. Ben Gurion agreed, and an American team visited the
installation that May.
the 1960's Americans visited the first floor,
1963: Kennedy refuses to sign any security arrangement with
Israel. After Kennedy assassination brings the very pro-Israel
Lyndon Johnson to power. (Not surprisingly there is an
assassination conspiracy theory that the
Mossad killed Kennedy.)
Read the Rolling Stone article regarding Hunt's confession to his son.
"LBJ was the head of a long list of those who were waiting for a change in the executive branch."
Brief history Cord Meyer: Allen W. Dulles made contact with Cord Meyer in 1951. He accepted the invitation to join the CIA. Cord was a graduate of Yale, and a darling of the East Coast elite in power at the time. Dulles told Meyer he wanted him to work on a project that was so secret that he could not be told about it until he officially joined the organization. Meyer was to work under Frank Wisner, director of the Office of Policy Coordination (OPC). This became the espionage and counter-intelligence branch of the CIA. Wisner was told to create an organization that concentrated on "propaganda, economic warfare; preventive direct action, including sabotage, anti-sabotage, demolition and evacuation measures; subversion against hostile states, including assistance to underground resistance groups, and support of indigenous anti-Communist elements in threatened countries of the free world." But by August, 1953, Joseph McCarthy had accused Cord Meyer of being a communist! By 1954, Cord Meyer became disillusioned with life in the CIA. It would not be the last time.
November, 1954, Meyer replaced
as head of
International Organizations Division. Meyer began spending a lot of time
in Europe.
One of Meyer's
tasks was to supervise Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty, the United
States government broadcasts to Eastern Europe. According to
Burleigh (A
Very Private Woman) Meyer was "overseeing a vast 'black'
budget of millions of dollars channeled through phony foundation of a
global network of associations and labor groups that on their surface
appeared to be progressive".
In October 1961, Mary Pinchot (Meyer) began visiting John F. Kennedy in the White House. She had been friends with Jackie, and knew JFK as a neighbor from when they lived near each other. It was about this time she began an affair with the president. Mary told her friends, Ann and James Truitt, that she was keeping a diary about the relationship.
James Angleton began bugging Mary's telephone and bedroom after she left Cord Meyer. This information came from an interview with Joan Bross, the wife of John Bross, a high-ranking CIA official. Angleton became a regular visitor to the family home and took Mary's sons fishing.
By 1963, LBJ had settled on Cord Meyer, Jr. as an opportunist, who had little left to live for, to head another secret organization. The night before the Kennedy assassination, Lyndon Baines Johnson met with Dallas tycoons, FBI moguls and organized crime kingpins - emerging from the conference to tell his mistress Madeleine Duncan Brown that "those SOB's" -the "Irish Mafia" that he called the Kennedy family-would never embarrass him again.
"Edward Clark, acting on orders from Lyndon Johnson, had arranged for all the parties who wanted Kennedy killed to contribute either cash or manpower. It was like a poker game with each player putting his chips in the pot. Oswald was the CIA's contribution. Malcolm Wallace was Johnson's chip. The mob contributed two expert hit men to take the head-on shot as a back-up to Oswald and Wallace. Big oil, namely Murchison, put up the cash.
In return, big oil got their Oil Depletion Allowance and the Military Industrial economy they dreamed about; the CIA maintained their stonghold on power and escalated the Vietnam conflict to a full blown war, the mob silenced Attorney General Robert Kennedy's pressure on Hoover to combat their criminal activities; Lyndon Johnson avoided being indicted for his corruption with Billy Sol Estes and Bobby Baker, almost certain imprisonment, and gained his zenith as the president of the United States. Not bad- eh?" more at the website LBJ killed Kennedy
In March, 1976, James Truitt, a former senior member of staff at the Washington Post, gave an interview to the National Enquirer. Truitt told the newspaper that Meyer was having an affair with John F. Kennedy when he was assassinated. He also claimed that Meyer had told his wife, Ann Truitt, that she was keeping an account of this relationship in her diary. Meyer asked Truitt to take possession of a private diary "if anything ever happened to me".
Meyer was murdered on 12th October, 1964.
In February, 2001, the writer, C. David Heymann, asked Cord Meyer about the death of Mary Pinchot Meyer: "My father died of a heart attack the same year Mary was killed, " he whispered. "It was a bad time." And what could he say about Mary Meyer? Who had committed such a heinous crime? "The same sons of bitches," he hissed, "that killed John F. Kennedy."
E. Howard Hunt scribbled the initials
David Sanchez Morales, aka "El Indio," worked for the CIA under the cover of Army employment. He was involved in PBSUCCESS, the CIA's 1954 overthrow of the Guatemalan government, and rose to become Chief of Operations at the CIA's large JMWAVE facility in Miami. In that role, he oversaw operations undertaken against the regime of Fidel Castro in Cuba.
Morales was involved in other covert operations of the CIA, reportedly including plots to assassinate Fidel Castro, training intelligence teams supporting the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba, the CIA's secret war in Laos and its controversial Operation Phoenix in Vietnam, and the hunting down of Che Guevera in Bolivia.
After Morales' retirement in 1975 he returned to his native Arizona, and died of a heart attack in 1978. HSCA investigator Gaeton Fonzi traced Morales to Wilcox, Arizona shortly after Morales' death, and talked to his lifelong friend Ruben Carbajal and a business associate of Morales' named Bob Walton. Walton told Fonzi of an evening, after many drinks, when Morales went into a tirade about Kennedy and particularly his failure to support the men of the Bay of Pigs. Morales finished this conversation by saying "Well, we took care of that son of a bitch, didn't we?" Carbajal, who had been present at the confession, corroborated it.
And then his father connected to Morales' name, with a line, the framed words "French Gunman Grassy Knoll."
LBJ had Kennedy killed. It had long
been speculated upon. But now E. Howard was saying that's the way it
was. And that Lee Harvey Oswald wasn't the only shooter in Dallas. There
was also, on the grassy knoll, a French gunman, presumably the Corsican
Mafia assassin Lucien Sarti,
Lucien Sarti worked for the French-Corsican heroin trafficker and convicted Nazi collaborator, Auguste Joseph Ricord. It was claimed by the journalist Stephen Rivele, that Antoine Guerini organized the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. According to his contact, Christian David, the killing was carried out by Sarti and two other members of the Marseilles mob. It is believed Sarti fired from behind the wooden fence on the grassy knoll. The first shot was fired from behind and hit Kennedy in the back. The second shot was fired from behind, and hit John Connally. The third shot was fired from in front, and hit Kennedy in the head. The fourth shot was from behind and missed
About two (2) weeks before the assassination, Sarti flew from France to Mexico City, from where he drove or was driven to the U.S border at Brownsville, TX. Sarti crossed at Brownsville where he was picked up by someone from the Chicago mafia [confirmed in the book "DOUBLE CROSS" in Chapter 15]. This person drove him to a private house in Dallas rather than his staying in a hotel where records would be left; Sarti traveled on an Italian passport. It is believed the CIA were behind his death at the hands of Mexican police.
"Cord Meyer discusses a plot with [David Atlee]
a Miami Cuban named Antonio Veciana, the founder and chief finance officer of Alpha 66, one of the most militant anti-Castro groups in action at the time of Kennedy's assassination.
He meets with Oswald in Mexico City. . . . Then
Veciana meets w/ Frank Sturgis
David Atlee Phillips, the CIA's Cuban operations chief in Miami at the time of JFK's death, knew E. Howard from the Guatemala-coup days. Veciana is a member of the Cuban exile community. Sturgis, like Saint's father, is supposed to have been one of the three tramps photographed in Dealey Plaza. Sturgis was also one of the Watergate plotters, and he is a man whom E. Howard, under oath, has repeatedly sworn to have not met until Watergate, so to Saint the mention of his name was big news.
In the next few paragraphs, E. Howard goes on to describe the extent of his own involvement. It revolves around a meeting he claims he attended, in 1963, with Morales and Sturgis. It takes place in a Miami hotel room. Here's what happens:
Morales leaves the room, at which point Sturgis makes reference to a "Big Event" and asks E. Howard,
E. Howard asks Sturgis what he's talking about.
Sturgis says, "Killing JFK."
E. Howard, "incredulous," says to Sturgis, "You seem to have everything you need. Why do you need me?" In the handwritten narrative, Sturgis' response is unclear, though what E. Howard says to Sturgis next isn't: He says he won't "get involved in anything involving Bill Harvey, who is an alcoholic psycho."
"Actually, there were probably dozens of plots to kill Kennedy, because everybody hated Kennedy but the public"
"If the United States ever experiences an attempt
at a coup to overthrow the government, it will come from the CIA. The
agency represents a tremendous power and total unaccountability to
McClellan Sr has been gaily telling interviewers that LBJ resorted to murder because he was worried about being dropped as vice-president by Kennedy. "I knew LBJ well. He was very brutal," McClellan Sr said. -Bush aide embarassed by Dad's LBJ killed JFK theories.
When president Kennedy was shot in Dallas, Texas in 1963, police and the FBI stormed the Texas Book Depository and located a rifle near an open window. The so-called "sniper's nest" had been made by arranging several cardboard boxes so as to both hide the shooter from anyone who might have been on the 6th floor at the time and also to support the rifle while the shooter took aim from the window overlooking the president's motorcade.
Investigators scoured the scene for fingerprints but the rifle and the boxes had apparently been wiped clean. The only forensic element that could possibly identify the killer was a partial fingerprint that was lifted from one of the cardboard boxes.
The print, as it turns out, belongs to Malcolm Wallace, the long time friend and associate of president Lyndon Baines Johnson. -LBJ killed Kennedy
Oswald was going to be caught and they knew it...better to lose him than not to get it done. He was nothing to them.
The way
in which Mac Wallace and Oswald met is not known. We know they did meet
and that they were together on the 6th floor of the Texas School Book
Depository when Kennedy was shot.
On Aug. 16, 1978, Liberty Lobby Inc. published an article by former CIA
officer Victor Marchetti in its magazine, The
In that article, Marchetti stated that E. Howard Hunt, also a former CIA
officer, was involved in the JFK assassination. Hunt sued Liberty Lobby
for libel in federal district court and won. However, in the appeals
trial, former CIA asset Marita Lorenz testified that on Nov. 21, 1963,
the day before the assassination, E. Howard Hunt was in Dallas, where he
delivered "sums of money for the so-called operation" to a small group
of men that included former CIA agent Frank Sturgis of Watergate fame
and Oswald killer Jack Ruby. The federal jury found for Liberty Lobby
Inc. and awarded costs to be assessed against Hunt.
Who exactly is Malcolm Wallace?
Malcolm Wallace was born and educated in Texas. He was an intelligent man who graduated from the University of Texas and it was Edward Clark who introduced Wallace to Lyndon B. Johnson and in October, 1950, he began working with the United States Department of Agriculture in Texas.
He first came to the attention of authorities when he was arrested in 1951, tried and convicted of killing a professional golfer named John Douglas Kinser. At the time, Kinser was having an affair with Lyndon Johnson's sister, Josefa -- and was also involved with Wallace's wife. Josepha was an alcoholic and drug user. She had a reputation for being promiscuous and, especially when she was high, she disclosed personal information and stories about Lyndon. It was feared that she might have already disclosed some illegal acivities about Johnson to Kinser, specifically certain activities he had engaged in during his race for the Senate.
In 1984, Estes' lawyer, Douglas Caddy, wrote to the Department of Justice claiming that Estes, Lyndon B. Johnson, Malcolm "Mac" Wallace, and Cliff Carter had been involved in the murders of Henry Marshall, George Krutilek, Harold Orr, Ike Rogers and his secretary, Coleman Wade, the president's sister Josefa Johnson, John Kinser and John F. Kennedy. Caddy added, "Mr. Estes is willing to testify that LBJ ordered these killings, and that he transmitted his orders through Cliff Carter to Mac Wallace, who executed the murders."[6]
Estes agreed to provide supporting proof to the FBI, which proffered immunity in exchange but Estes ultimately refused to produce any evidence.
This, then is the solution to the case: LBJ had Kennedy killed to save his political career and stay out of prison. It was just business as usual for LBJ and his little group; Texas was a rough old place in 1963 and LBJ was, in effect, running his own crime syndicate. And, of course, he became president.
Estes was accused of swindling investors, banks and the federal government of at least $24 million through false agricultural subsidy claims on cotton production and the use of non-existent supplies of anhydrous ammonia fertilizer as collateral for loans. He was eventually found guilty of additional federal charges and sentenced to fifteen years in prison.
The "Arranger" -- Edward Clark
If the decision to murder Kennedy was made that night at the Murchison mansion, the plans must have been ready much earlier. This meeting in Dallas, the night before the assassination, was merely the failsafe point where the crafted and pre-meditated murder was given the "go ahead." It was a done deal.
From the testimony of Billy Sol Estes, a close associate of Johnson, we learn that the plot was coordinated by a man named Clark.
Edward Aubrey Clark [right] was born San Augustine, Texas on 15th July, 1906. He obtained his first degree from Tulane University in New Orleans. In 1927 Clark married Anne Metcalfe of Greenville, Mississippi, and heir to the largest cotton plantation system in the South.
Clark received a law degree in 1928 from the University of Texas. After leaving law school, Clark became a county attorney in San Augustine. In 1932 he moved to Austin and served as assistant attorney general of Texas.
In 1935 Clark became assistant to Governor James Allred. Soon after he met Lyndon B. Johnson and the two men became close friends. The governor appointed Clark secretary of state in 1937. The following year Clark opened a private law practice with Everett Looney. He also worked as a political lobbyist for the oil industry. One of his main clients was Big Oil, a company owned by Clint Murchison. He was one of the "guests" at the Del Charro Hotel, owned by Murchison, and was known as the "arranger."
A few years after the assassination, Clark's law firm partner couldn't resist bragging about Clark's involvement in the affair. He told Barr McClellan, who worked at the firm, "I'm the only living man who knows what happened in Box 13..." (Referring to Johnson's rigged senate election) "But Clark took care of things in Dallas."
3. By early 1963 Havana Mobster Santo Trafficante had given up his attempts to assassinate Castro and turned his attention to JFK. Kennedy had angered two powerful underworld constituencies—the anti-Castro Cuban exiles, who felt he had betrayed them by withholding crucial air support during the Bay of Pigs invasion, and the Mob, who were on the receiving end of a relentless judicial assault engineered by the president's brother Attorney General Robert Kennedy.
According to many subsequent histories of the JFK assassination, Trafficante played a key role in the conspiracy to kill the president, along with New Orleans mafioso Carlos Marcello. In his memoir, attorney Frank Ragano contends that Trafficante virtually confessed the mob's role in the Kennedy assassination. "We shouldn't have killed Giovanni (John); we should have killed Bobby, " said Trafficant to Tagano many years after the fact.
SAM GIANCANA: "The politicians [LBJ and Clark] and the CIA made it real simple. We'd each provide men for the hit ... I'd oversee the Outfit [Mafia] side of things and throw in Jack Ruby and some extra backup and the CIA would put their own guys in to take care of the rest."
Nicholas Katzenbach-Bill Moyers memo: Nothing to see here — On the day of JFK's funeral, Nov. 25, 1963, this document was sent from Assistant Attorney General Katzenbach to Bill Moyers, press secretary to the newly sworn-in President Johnson. It states, "The public must be satisfied that Oswald was the assassin; that he did not have confederates who are still at large; and that evidence was such that he would have been convicted at trial."The Warren Commission was created four days later.
RICHARD NIXON'S connections to organized crime and the JFK assassination
But Wait, There's More! CIA and mob links continue...or the so called Watergate Scandal
According to the FBI's Watergate investigation, John Mitchell, the director of the Committee to Re-elect the President (CREEP), and his aide Jeb Stuart Magruder discuss the proposal made by G. Gordon Liddy to plant electronic surveillance devices on the phone of the chairman of the Democratic Party, Lawrence O'Brien (see March 20, 1971). Magruder telephones President Nixon's chief of staff, H. R. Haldeman, and Haldeman confirms that Nixon wants the operation carried out.
According to Watergate burglar Eugenioby his old CIA code name "Eduardo" (see September 9, 1971), is ratcheting up the activities of the White House "Plumbers" operation. Martinez is not yet aware of the nature of the team's operations, but believes he is part of a black-ops, CIA-authorized organization working to foil Communist espionage activities. Hunt gives team member Bernard Barker $89,000 in checks from Mexican banks to cash for operational funds, and orders Barker to recruit new team members. Barker brings in Frank Sturgis, Virgilio Gonzalez, and Reinaldo Pico, all veterans of the CIA's activities against Cuba's Fidel Castro. On May 22, the six—Hunt, Barker, Gonzalez, Martinez, Pico, and Sturgis—meet for the first time at the Manger Hays-Adams Hotel in Washington for Hunt's first briefing. By this point, Martinez will later recall, G. Gordon Liddy, who had been involved in the burglary related to Pentagon Papers leaker Daniel Ellsberg, is involved. Hunt calls Liddy "Daddy," and, Martinez recalls, "the two men seemed almost inseparable." They meet another team member, James McCord, who unbeknownst to Martinez is an official with Nixon's presidential campaign (see June 19, 1972). McCord is introduced simply as "Jimmy," an "old man from the CIA who used to do electronic jobs for the CIA and the FBI." McCord is to be the electronics expert.

Maurice Stans, the financial chief for the Committee to Re-elect the President (CREEP), launches a final fundraising swing across the Southwest on behalf of Richard Nixon. Stans solicits contributions from Republicans and Democrats alike, and tells reluctant contributors that if they do not want their donations traced back to them, their anonymity can be ensured by moving their contributions through Mexican banks. Mexico does not allow the US to subpoena its bank records.
With the FBI tracing the Watergate burglars' $100 bills to GOP fundraiser Kenneth Dahlberg (see August 1-2, 1972), President Nixon orders the CIA to attempt to stop the FBI from investigating the Watergate conspiracy, using the justification of "national security."
Mid-November, 1972: Hunt Threatens White House with Breaking of Silence if He and Other Burglars Are Not Paid
White House aide Charles Colson and Watergate burglar E. Howard Hunt discuss Hunt's demand for "hush money" (see June 20-21, 1972 and March 21, 1973) in a telephone call. Hunt says he called "because the commitments that were made to all of us [Hunt and the other six burglars, all of whom are facing trial] have not been kept." He continues: "There's a great deal of concern on the part of the seven defendants. There's a great deal of financial expense here that is not covered. What we've been getting has been coming in very minor drips and drabs. We're now reaching a point at which—" "Don't tell me any more," Colson interjects. Hunt says, "[T]his thing should not break apart for foolish reasons," which Colson interprets as a veiled threat that Hunt will begin talking to prosecutors about his involvement in the Watergate conspiracy. Colson seems to get the message: "Christ no.… You've told me all I need to know… the less I know really about what happened, the more help I can be to you." Hunt says: "We've set a deadline now for the close of business on November 25 for the resolution, the liquidation of everything that's outstanding.… I'm talking about promises from July and August. We could understand some hesitancy prior to the election (see November 7, 1972), but there doesn't seem to be any of that now. Of course, we're well aware of the upcoming problems of the Senate" (see February 7, 1973). Colson replies, "That's where it gets hairy as hell." Hunt continues: "We're protecting the guys who were really responsible. That's a continuing requirement. But this is a two-way street.… We think now is the time when some moves should be made, and surely your cheapest commodity is money." [Reston, 2007, pp. 186-190] Shortly thereafter, Hunt receives more money from secret White House sources (see January 8-9, 1973).

Deep Thoat (Felt) comments to Woodward:
He says, "In 1969, the first targets of aggressive wiretapping were the reporters and those in the administration who were suspected of disloyalty. Then the emphasis was shifted to the radical political opposition during the [Vietnam] antiwar protests. When it got near election time [1972], it was only natural to tap the Democrats (see Late June-July 1971 and May 27-28, 1972). The arrests in the Watergate (see 2:30 a.m.June 17, 1972) sent everybody off the edge because the break-in could uncover the whole program." [Bernstein and Woodward, 1974, pp. 271]
he is referring to the
NSA's Operation Shamrock
As documented by Pete Brewton, author of The Mafia, the CIA and George Bush, Bush was deeply connected with a small circle of Texas elites tied to the CIA and the Mafia, as well as the Florida-based CIA/anti-Casto Cuban exile/ Mafia milieu.
As Richard Nixon's hand-picked Republican National Committee chairman, and later as CIA director, Bush senior constantly covered-up and stonewalled for his boss about Watergate, which itself (by the admission of Frank Sturgis and others) was a cover-up of the JFK assassination.
The Bush-Hoover Document: What did Bush the First know? —
On Nov. 29, 1963, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover drafted a memo titled
"Assassination of President John F. Kennedy" to Roger Hilsman, the
director of the Bureau of Intelligence and Research. In it, Hoover
stated, "information was furnished to Mr. George Bush of the Central
Intelligence Agency." This has piqued the interest of researchers
because George H.W. Bush wasn't officially affiliated with the CIA until
he was named director in 1976.

Coffman Moves Bill to Reform VA Hospital Construction
(Washington, D.C.) Today, the House Committee on Veterans Affairs passed H.R. 3593, the VA Construction Assistance Act, out of the House Veterans' Affairs Committee with bipartisan support. The legislation was introduced by U.S. Representative Mike Coffman (R-CO), who serves as the chairman of the House Veterans Oversight and Investigations (O&I) Subcommittee where significant problems with the Department of Veterans Affairs' (VA) construction practices became public knowledge. Coffman's proposed reforms are designed to help speed the construction and rein in the out-of-control costs of three major VA regional projects under development in Aurora, Colorado; New Orleans, Louisiana; and Orlando, Florida.
"Today we are one step closer to ensuring that the VA has proper oversight and expertise guiding the management and completion of the Aurora VA Medical Center and other major VA hospital construction projects," said Coffman, a Marine Corps combat veteran.
Coffman introduced the legislation late last year based on the investigative work of his subcommittee and in response to a Government Accountability Office report that found that VA's major construction projects have been mired in mismanagement that has caused major delays and cost overruns. The report concluded that these three major hospital construction projects are expected to have an average cost overrun exceeding $300 million and be completed three years behind schedule.
The VA Construction Assistance Act, implements the GAO-recommended reforms such as assigning medical equipment planners to major medical construction projects and streamlining the change-order process. The proposal also goes a step further by requiring the assignment of an emergency manager, referred to as a "special project manager" from the Army Corps of Engineers, independent of the VA, to oversee each VA major medical facility project currently under construction. The GAO specifically singled out the Army Corps as an organization with a record of building similar projects within budget and on-schedule for the Department of Defense.
"Our veterans cannot simply hope that the situation will improve. We must get these construction projects delivered so our nation's veterans receive the healthcare services they have earned, while protecting taxpayers from massive cost overruns" said Coffman.
On April 22, 2014, as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, Coffman hosted an oversight field hearing in Denver titled, "Construction Conundrums: A Review of Continued Delays and Cost Overruns at the Replacement Aurora, Colorado VAMC". The hearing addressed how VA's handling of the Aurora VA Medical Center project has resulted in more than a year of delays and cost overruns of more than $470 million.
H.R. 3593, the VA Construction Assistance Act is expected to be voted on by the full House of Representatives for consideration.

The included cylinder can be used like a puzzle to plug up the tunnel or it can be used separately. Kids love to roll on top to get vestibular and proprioceptive input at the same time. It also helps kids increase their balance skills and upper arm strength.
Size: 24" long soft tunnel with 14" diameter removable cylinder. 4" soft sides
Made by Children's Factory
Item CF321-301

220 recepticle with 110 current to metal box
Today I wired a single-phase 20 amp 220V 3-blade receptacle. After testing as expected, I got 220 V when both hot receptacle slots were tested. Also got 110 Volt from the ground receptacle slot to each of the hot wires slots individually. I have a metal receptacle box and happened to notice it registers 110 V when I touch a single hot receptacle slot and the metal box. I thought this odd since my ground is insulated and not a bare cooper wire. Is this normal? Does the female receptacle ground to the metal box? (no neutral was wired)
Yes this is normal if you grounded the box properly. The ground is to give you a low impedance path back to your panel so the breaker will trip if there is a short to ground, and so your body would be a higher impedance and not go back through you. :thumbsup:
Thanks. I wouldn't have noticed except I just happend to touch the box while testing. Appreicate the info.
Note: There are exceptions to this rule. But to be on the safe side, just install the jumper.

Cool. Who's that young guy in the picture???????
Agree. I have put some tunnel rams on that do well across the board, in town, etc. It has a lot to do with the combination. Don't overdo the top end.
Check out the designs that Weiand is using now. Smaller, thinner plenums, bet not 2" thick, so the carb barrels shoot straight down into each runner, but with a common plenum joined together almost like a big spacer plate under a single carb. The street power and response is good. I still like the vac sec, the new set he bought with mech sec and the tuning is rich, need time to do it.
A few years ago we built a 440 magnum mopar with long 30" cross ram intake from 1960 with dual Edel 600s out by the fenders. Everybody said it would be a dog above 5000 rpm. In a 4000 pound rig it went past 5500 like it went past 3000. You had to be careful to keep in under 6500 it wound so fast. Nobody could believe it, combination....
It would rev so fast spinning the 50 series tires/ spool that you could rev it to 6500, let off and the engine would be slowing down and the tach needle still going up.... idled at 700 like a kitten. (its sitting here on an engine stand now. First time at the strip did 8.40s with little traction 1/8.
Have another 426 wedge in the works now with 30" long rams.)
Said all that to say.... ram effect, too short or too long...... depends on scavenging

CAPELLINI, Simone Aparecida et al. Spelling performance of students of 2nd to 5th grade from private teaching. Rev. CEFAC [online]. 2012, vol.14, n.2, pp.254-267. Epub Feb 14, 2012. ISSN 1982-0216. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1516-18462012005000012.
PURPOSE: to characterize, compare and classify the performance of students from 2nd to 5th grades of private teaching according to the semiology of errors. METHOD: 115 students from the 2nd to 5th grades, 27 from the 2nd grade, 30 students from the 3rd and 4th grades, and 28 from the 5th grade divided into four groups, respectively, GI, GII, GIII and GIV, were evaluated. The tests of Spelling Evaluation Protocol - Pro-Orthography were divided into: collective version (writing letters of the alphabet, randomized dictation of letters, word dictation, non-word dictation, dictation with pictures, thematic writing induced by picture) and individual version (dictation of sentences, purposeful error, spelled dictation, spelling lexical memory). RESULTS: there was a statistically significant difference in inter-group comparison indicating that there was an increase in average accuracy for all tests as for the individual and collective version. With the increase in grade level, the groups decreased the average of writing errors based on the semiology of errors. We found a higher frequency of natural spelling errors. CONCLUSION: data from this study showed that the increase in average accuracy according to grade level may be an indicative for normal development of student's writing in this population. The higher frequency of natural spelling errors found indicates that formal instruction on phoneme-grapheme correspondence may not be occurring, since that they are directly dependent on the learning of the rule of direct phoneme-grapheme correspondence.

And you say as you go on your way...
I saw That's Entertainment (1974) last night. Cinemark showed it as part of their classic film selections for the summer. It was pretty incredible. Going into it, I wasn't sure what to expect. When I saw Casablanca in theaters as part of the Fathom events, it was sold out - and I went to the encore performance! I wholly anticipate Singin' in the Rain to be sold out as well. So, I assumed That's Entertainment would be somewhere up there in popularity.
Well, the audience was myself, my mom, and an older gentleman who sat one seat away from us. That was it! We had a private showing! It was pretty funny. I was disappointed by the turnout but the small audience certainly had its perks. My mom was able to sing along and no one was there to mind. I constantly nudged her saying helpful things like, "I love this part!" and "this is one of my favorite songs ever!" and "this part is so good" and "my favorite part is coming up... yup. That's it." Yeah. I was worried that we'd bothered our co-viewer but, according to my mom, he was making his own commentary, so it's okay.
But. Let me tell you. It was so incredible watching that movie on the big screen! If I had been alive to see all of those great films when they came into theaters originally, I think I would have been a fan of more of them than I already am. For instance, Eleanor Powell and Fred Astaire's rendition of "Begin the Beguine" has never been a favorite of mine, simply because I'm not a big Eleanor Powell fan. But seeing it larger than life like that was simply incredible. I could see all of the expressions, all of the moves. The humor was so much funnier, everything was sexier, more moving, more exciting. Just more.
After we left the theater, my mom asked if there was another showing immediately after. I'm pretty sure if there had been, we would have turned around and watched it again!

Springdale rolls through Apollo-Ridge
Sean Dugan was a workhorse in Springdale's 24-0 Eastern Conference win over Apollo-Ridge on Friday night: He carried the ball 39 times for 236 yards and two touchdowns.
"I was ready to pound the ball behind a great offensive line," he said. "It just feels great to come in here as an underdog and walk away with a huge win."
Dugan said his 39 carries were the most he has ever had.
"He was awesome," coach Dave Leasure said. "We knew we could control the line of scrimmage. Sean has the biggest heart of any running back in Western Pennsylvania."
Springdale kicker Adam Winklmann started the scoring by making a 37-yard field goal. Springdale (4-2, 4-1) started the drive at the Apollo-Ridge 35 after Tre Tipton was stopped short of a first down on a fake punt.
With his team leading, 3-0, in the second quarter, Dynamos quarterback Jacob Helman capped a 13-play drive by plunging into the end zone from the 1-yard line.
Then it was Dugan's time to shine. The senior running back capped the first-half scoring when he took a handoff right and then made a sharp cutback left for an 11-yard score to make it 17-0.
Springdale held Apollo-Ridge (3-3, 3-2) to 66 yards and one first down in the first half.
Dugan, who has 994 yards on 127 carries this season, put the game out of reach when he took a handoff up the middle, broke six tackles and carried a defender into the end zone to make it 24-0.
Apollo-Ridge quarterback Jesse Zelonka was tackled at the 1 with no time left to preserve Springdale's shutout. The Dynamos blanked an offense that came in averaging 30 points.
Tipton, the Vikings' star receiver, was held to a season-low four receptions for 60 yards. The Dynamos' defensive line, led by senior tackle James Murray, hounded Zelonka throughout.
"A lot of people think Springdale football is dead. They're wrong," said Leasure, an assistant at Apollo-Ridge last year. "There's a lot of pride in these kids. They showed that tonight."
Apollo-Ridge coach John Skiba said his team was outmatched in the trenches.
"They controlled the lines and pounded the ball," he said. "You have to admire the way Dugan runs. He just runs so hard."

Over the past decade, riders have been seriously pushing the limits of bike technology and trail design to keep up with the demand for speed and air. Long gone are the days of single crown 3-inch travel suspension and worn-in dirt tracks down open ski runs. Downhill mountain biking has been amplified to a level of multiple hit 50 foot booters and DH rigs looking to suck up anything in their path.
AMPLITUDE is a story giving you a glimpse of the past and the high impact reality of today.

A bead of mass m slides without friction on a vertical hoop of radius R . The bead moves under the combined action of gravity and a spring, with spring constant k , attached to the bottom of the hoop. Assume that the equilibrium (relaxed) length of the spring is R. The bead is released from rest at θ = 0 with a non-zero but negligible speed to the right.
What is the magnitude of the force the hoop exerts on the bead when θ = 90∘ ? Express your answer in terms of m, R, k, and g.
sqrt(( (2*sqrt(2)-2)*k*R^2)/m+2*g*R)
A satellite with a mass of ms = 8.00 × 103 kg is in a planet's equatorial plane in a circular "synchronous" orbit. This means that an observer at the equator will see the satellite being stationary overhead (see figure below). The planet has mass mp = 9.59 × 1025 kg and a day of length T = 0.5 earth days (1 earth day = 24 hours).
(a) How far from the center (in m) of the planet is the satellite?
(b) What is the escape velocity (in km/sec) of any object that is at the same distance from the center of the planet that you calculated in (a)?
A bungee jumper jumps (with no initial speed) from a tall bridge attached to a light elastic cord (bungee cord) of unstretched length L. The cord first straightens and then extends as the jumper falls. This prevents her from hitting the water! Suppose that the bungee cord behaves like a spring with spring constant k = 110 N/m. The bridge is h = 110 m high and the jumper's mass is m = 50 kg. Use g = 10 m/s2.
(a) What is the maximum allowed length L of the unstretched bungee cord (in m) to keep the jumper alive? (Assume that the spring constant doesn't depend on L).
(b) Before jumping, our jumper verified the spring constant of the cord. She lowered herself very slowly from the bridge to the full extent of the cord and when she is at rest she measured the distance to the water surface. What was the measured distance (in m)?
A planet has a single moon that is solely influenced by the gravitational interaction between the two bodies. We will assume that the moon is moving in a circular orbit around the planet and that the moon travels with a constant speed in that orbit. The mass of the planet is mp = 5.69 × 1025 kg. The mass of the moon is mm = 8.25 × 1022 kg. The radius of the orbit is R = 7.76 × 108 m.
1)What is the period of the moon's orbit around the planet in earth days (1 earth day = 24 hours).

Improve mobile videos with some simple tools
With more than 365 million Apple mobile devices (iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch) and 350 million Android devices in consumers' hands, it's easy to say that more folks have access to a video camera than ever before.
But how to take advantage of the surprisingly robust video features offered by the mobile devices?
It's a question many are grappling with, as they produce shaky videos with poor sound that don't look as polished as some of the best work on YouTube and Facebook.
There are easy solutions.
In a nutshell, steady the image and improve the sound, and you're halfway home. The good news: You don't need a big video camera anymore to get great videos.
The cameras in smartphones have so improved that with a little thought and some tools, you can make great-looking work.
Here's what you need:
•Studio Neat Glif ($20) connects your smartphone to a tripod. If you don't have a tripod, you can skip that step and pay $40 for Joby's Gorrillamobile. The phone fits directly onto the portable tripod with bendable legs. You could put the unit on a table, for instance, or bend it onto the back of a chair. A bracket can also help — try the $10 Heavy Duty L-bracket from photo retailer Adorama. With this, you can add a light as well.
•iPad. Musicians have turned to IK Multimedia's $40 iKlip as a way to hold their iPad on microphone stands, to easily turn the pages of their sheet music at gigs when performing. The iKlip also works great for video: Place the iPad into the unit and start recording high-def video without having to worry about shaky images.
Tip: A word of caution for all three devices — remember to shoot in horizontal mode. When you flip the screens vertically, you only record part of the image — which looks OK for photos, but terrible for video.
The audio from the internal microphones on the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch is terrible. There are simple solutions to dramatically improve your audio, and while they're not cheap, they will make a huge difference in your videos.
You have three options: a microphone, a cable to connect the mike to the iPhone, or an audio recorder.
•Mike cables. Action Life Media has a $29.99 cable that will hook a microphone with a ⅓-inch connection directly into the iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad's headphone input. The company also sells cable connectors for higher-end mikes with XLR inputs.
•Microphones. If you're looking to do an interview with Grandma about her early days, or a chat with your son about this weekend's soccer game, you could buy the same kind of mike you see folks wearing every day on TV — a lavalier mike that hangs on their lapel. Mikes aren't cheap, but you could start with an entry-level model from the likes of RadioShack, which offers one for just $39.99. Another option: IK Multimedia's iRig Cast is a small $39.99 mike that plugs directly into the iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. It will do wonders in relatively quiet rooms, but in a crowd — such as a party or bar — it won't make much of a difference.
•Audio recorder. My favorite go-to device is the $299 Zoom H4n audio recorder. You can plug two microphones directly into it (great for interviews) and also make use of its two, excellent internal microphones as well, which, if they're placed close enough to you in a quiet room, will sound just as good as the lavalier mike. (The audio won't go directly to the camera — you'll have to marry it with your video file when you start editing. The easiest way is to make your own "Clapper," the tool that's been used at the beginning of movies since the Charlie Chaplin era. Just clap your hands when you start recording — or use an app, as described at right.) If $299 is too steep, consider Zoom's entry-level model. The H1 sells for about $100 and has one mike input and one internal mike.
Tip: Before you start recording, don't forget to turn on the Airplane Mode in general settings — otherwise an incoming call could cancel out what you're doing.
There are hundreds of great photo and video apps for Apple devices. Here's a handful of my favorites:
•Filmic Pro. A huge drawback to shooting video on smartphones is that you can't adjust the exposure: Everything's automatic. Well, here's a $3 workaround. With this app, you can tweak exposure slightly by putting your finger on the iPhone or Android phones and make sections of the image lighter or darker.
•Almost DSLR. For $2 you can adjust and lock focus on Apple devices — vital tools.
•DollyCam. This $3 app does an amazing job of steadying your image for the iPhone and iPod Touch. You start off by shooting your video the normal way, and then, when the take is finished, you process it, which can take a few minutes.
•Clappers. There are many clapper apps for Apple and Android — little slates that snap in place to give you an audio cue to sync up your audio and video footage in editing. The basic Clapperboard app for Apple is $1.99. SyncSlate for Android is free. You can work your way up the chain to a $24.99 MovieSlate app that also has room for a shot log and notepad.
Tip: Apps are so cheap, try a bunch out until you find the ones you like. They can really make a difference in your final product.
Really fun stuff
•Action Life Media's mCamlite (formerly the Owle Bubo) is a four-sided grip that goes over the iPhone and iPod Touch to effectively steady your hand while you're shooting, almost (but not entirely) eliminating the need for a tripod. The $159.95 mCam has four inputs for tripods, along with a "cold shoe" — a slot that lets you attach an external light —and a small external microphone.
•The Steadicam Smoothee for iPhone 4 is modeled after the popular devices used by pros in the movies and TV shows to zip the camera across the screen. Tiffen, which makes Steadicams for big cameras starting at $700, has the junior version for the iPhone at $149, and with it, you'll be able to take amazing walking shots without the usual jerky motion you'd see without it.
•The Olloclip $70 add-on lens slips directly over the iPhone and iPod Touch camera to give you fish-eye, wide-angle and macro views. It brings an ultracool look to your projects.
