FLORENCE, S.C. – Francis Marion University men's basketball coach Gary Edwards has announced the signing of three high school seniors for the 2011-12 season: guard Clayton Williams of Buford, Ga., and guards AJ Caldwell and Cameron Lee, both of Columbia.
Williams, 6-0 and 160 pounds, is a product of North Gwinnett High School, where he played for coaches Zac Smith and Matt Garner.
As a senior, he averaged 11.3 points, 4.4 assists, and 2.0 steals per game, while helping the Bulldogs to an 18-10 record. He shot 46 percent from the floor, including 46.6 percent from beyond the three-point arc, and 83.3 percent at the foul line. He earned first-team All-Region (7-AAAAA) and All-Gwinnett County honors, garnered All-Tournament Team recognition, was selected to play in an All-Star Game, and was named his squad's most valuable player. He was a three-year varsity starter, and a three-year team captain.
Caldwell, 6-2 and 145 pounds, comes to FMU from Eau Claire High School, where he played for coach Lamont Britt. This past year, he averaged 16 points, five rebounds, and three assists per game, while helping the Shamrocks to an appearance in the Class AA state tournament quarterfinals. He earned SCBCA All-State honors, was selected as an All-Region performer, was named his squad's most valuable player, and gained All-Area honors from The State newspaper.
Lee, 6-2 and 195 pounds, is a graduate of Ridge View High School, where he played for coach John Combs. As a senior, the southpaw also averaged 16 points, five rebounds, and three assists per game. He helped the Blazers to a spot in the AAAA state championship game. He was honored with All-State and All-Region recognition.
"Clayton was the best high school point guard I saw all year," said Edwards. "He could contribute as a freshman, will bring stability to our point position, and I am looking at him as our point guard of the future.
"AJ is a product of a traditionally great high school program. He is very athletic, and a 'slasher' type player who can penetrate and get into the lane.
"Cameron was on a great high school squad this past year. He knows how to win. He is a great shooter who will add to our outside offensive attack. We are always looking to keep in-state talent here, and I am excited about AJ and Cameron joining our program."
Francis Marion posted a 16-11 record this past season, the team's third consecutive winning season – something that has not happened since the early 1990's. FMU tied for third in the PBC's East Division standings.

He's working overtime on revamping his public image and Justin Bieber's latest effort found him on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" yet again.
The "Baby" singer dropped by unannounced on Thursday (February 5) and told his talk show host buddy that he's trying to turn over a new leaf.
She's been busy promoting her forthcoming film "Jupiter Ascending" and Mila Kunis paid a visit to "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Tuesday (February 3).
After chatting about her four-month-old daughter Wyatt Isabelle, the "That 70s Show" starlet faced the inevitable question about whether or not she's secretly married to Ashton Kutcher.
As one of the strongest personalities in popular music, Kanye West has often come off as brash, abrasive and impatient, though that's all changing now that he's married and has a kid.
He's always been a big fan of Ellen DeGeneres and Justin Bieber dropped by the "Ellen DeGeneres Show" to wish the host a happy birthday.
It was a fun and flirty scene at the "Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Thursday (January 22) as Gwyneth Paltrow, Johnny Depp and Paul Bettany dropped by to promote their new movie "Mortdecai."
It's always fun when she shows up on the scene, and Jennifer Aniston had a blast during her visit to "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Monday (January 19).
She's one of the biggest pop singers of all time and Mariah Carey is headed to Sin City for her first residency. While chatting with Ellen DeGeneres, the "Someday" songstress shared the exciting news with the eager audience.

If I were trying to maximize my online hits for this column, the headline might be: "Politico Blamed for Decline of Journalism."
But maybe that's a tad too nuanced to draw the Drudge link that would boost my numbers. Perhaps I should go with "Web Site Addicted to Mini-Scoops." Hmm, too polite. How about "Is Politico Pandering?"
In the digital world, success often turns on a quick-click mentality in which an item, tidbit, morsel, video or sexy image is all the bait that's needed. No one, not even august newspapers, is immune.
Politico, the Web operation and newspaper launched more than two years ago by two Washington Post veterans, is actually a smart and substantive site. But in its relentless pursuit of traffic -- not all that different from the networks' relentless pursuit of ratings -- Politico sometimes plays up the novel, the fleeting, the provocative take that briefly titillates but evaporates within hours. And that has some critics accusing the site of dumbing down the art of reporting.
The rest...MEDIA NOTES: Politico Tries To Mix Steak And Sizzle

Vogue Celebrates US Open With High-Fashion Tennis Balls
Diane von Furstenberg and Pamela Love are among the 12 fashion designers who updated the ball from classic neon green.
It's no secret that tennis superstar Venus Williams likes to bring a little high fashion to the tennis courts- her untraditional outfits often garner as much attention as her playing ability, and she even designs her own line of tennis clothing, EleVen. To match her high-end style, Vogue commissioned twelve designers to create an updated version of the classic green tennis ball for the US Open.
While none of the balls are actually playable (the spikes and diamonds on a few would surely do some damage to the court!), many of the designs draw inspiration from the sport; below, Peter Som's glam tennis ball mimics a diamond tennis bracelet and featured in the header, Diane von Furstenberg's design cleverly pays homage to the 'love' in tennis scoring.
Click through the gallery to see all of the designs- it's almost as if NY Fashion Week landed a few days early!

I know that FN makes a lot of our military weapons, they announce it is every publication.
but do they make a good handgun?
what would you choose and why - FN or XD in 45acp?

I know that FN makes a lot of our military weapons, they announce it is every publication.
but do they make a good handgun?
what would you choose and why - FN or XD in 45acp?
Had an XD45 Service, bought it when the first came out. Put a lot of rounds through it and really liked it. Sold same to buy an FNP45 a couple of weeks ago. I think the recoil is as soft or softer than the XD. I like a DA/SA capability in a pistol and I loke a visible hammer. Carried a 1911 for a lot of years and guess I still like to see the hammer. In summary, I've got two FNs, 40 & 45, and a bunch of Sigs. Since the FN design is a lot like that of Sig, I think I just prefer pistols that function and tear down in that manner.
I love my FNP9 - I like it better than the XD9.
Go check out www.fnforum.net for more FN info.
One warning: if you buy the FNP45 you aren't going to find many accessories out there for it. It's a new gun and the accessory companies aren't making sights for it (Hi Viz, etc), holsters, etc.
Yes, it always takes time for such things to occur. It was the same for the Beretta PX4. Ya gotta give it time for accessories to catch up.
Love my FNP 9 but in .45 I'll take my XD-45 or my 4506 S&W
FN all the way, but only 'cause I think it's purtier. Sounds facetious, I know, but the only reason why I don't own an Xd - good though they are - is that I can't abide their looks.
Then again, I used to say that about Glocks, and I now own a 26....
XD's ain't purty, for sure. But my .45 has over 2000 rounds through it without a failure, and the trigger just keeps getting sweeter, and I just keep shooting it better.
I like to buy purty guns, but the XD45 is the one I trust the most.
thanks for the input
i was thinking of the XD but ONLY because it was better than the G21sf
now i have my eyes set on the fnp45
The FNP9 is really nice (not that I'm biased). The .45 has a good rep on the FN Forum, but I haven't tried one myself. Good luck!
EDITED: I had a chance to handle (but not fire) the FNP45 at the shop tonight. Inside, it looks like the FNP9, but about 5% bigger. The slide works the same and the barrel and spring are laid out the same. The decocker lever is different. The slide release lever is located in a better position than the FNP9 (it's closer to the back of the gun and easier to reach). I wish I could do a range report, but the gun selection at the range includes a 9 but not the 45. If it shoots like a 5% bigger 9, it's going to be a winner.
One of the Handgun magazine just had a cover story on this gun. Here is a quick link to it.
Do the FN double stacked magazines rattle when loaded?
It is funny this question came up...Ever since I was at Bass Pro a few months back and looked and handled the FN, I thought it had a great look and a great feel to it...I have an XD9 and an XD45 and I wouldnt get rid of either, I really like that look of the FN...
everyone has to just buy Heckler & Koch then you dont need to ask "this vs that" anymore becuase its the best
i don't really know of H&K
who are they?
How long have they been in business?
they do not appear to be very high on the total sales volumes from the shootingindustry web site.
Where are they made?

I have to say I disagree markedly with this review - they are by some distance my favourite in ear phones - and I have Shure 530s, Senheiser IE8s, Ultimate Ears 5 pros among others. (I know, far too much money spent on 'phones). They have the most rounded sound of all of those - the 530s and UE5s are great in quiet rooms, but the bass vanishes on the tube or even out on the street and the signature becomes far too bright. The IE8s are better outside perfect conditions, but I find it difficult to get the right position to get the best effect. These on the other hand go in easily, are the most comfortable, always give good sound insulation and sound good outside a quiet room! I find the sound almost as good as the B&W P5s.
I completely agree with you - I bought a pair and have no issues with the comfort at all - quite opposite - they feel so comfy that I forget they're there !!! Also, the pictures above the cable from the splitter to the jack looks like rubber. This in fact is Kevlar coating which and looks a bit like round laces in formal shoes - very strong
Just noticed this review and had to comment - these are quite simply the best in-ear headphones I've ever used; completely wipe out Shure, Etymotic, and Ultimate Ears I've owned previously.
Not only are they comfortable but the sound is simply unbelievable and they are FAR more durable than any other brand I've used - in fact, that's why I bought these as I'd had yet another pair of headphones (Shure) break and was fed up with it.
On the go these are my weapon of choice for the tube and train as they're sleek, unobtrusive, brilliant sounding, and block out noise wonderfully. They've also got fantastic customer service too, sending me a free set of extra buds when one of them got caught and torn at no charge.
They really show up lossy audio so ditch your mp3's and go for apple lossless or FLAC
Bought these just after Christmas 2011 and they're the only pair of in-ear headphones to date that have lasted beyond a year without getting damaged, so the removable cord aspect doesn't seem to be very relevant either...
Do not buy Atomic Floyd!! I am waiting for my 3rd yes third pair of
super darts on warranty. I have now been waiting 62 days to have them
replaced under warranty.
Their Support is absolute rubbish & keep replying 'we have a back log WTF!!!!'
But I can buy a pair from their website & have them delivered in 48hrs
DO NOT BUY ATOMIC FLOYD!! Had my darts for a couple of years, then the connector jack went bad on me, despite them stating on the box they were earphones were built for life!! Tried getting post sales support, and no response to my emails or telephone calls. This is not good enough when spending so much on a product that clearly is designed to fail. Will never buy from these guys ever again!!
Unuseable on Samsung Galaxy S7 - Volume Control doesn't work, triple tap for back doesn't work...?!

text: HOUSTON, July 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Dresser-Rand Company, a subsidiary of Dresser-Rand Group Inc. ("Dresser-Rand" or, collectively with its affiliates, the "Company")(NYSE: DRC), a global supplier of rotating equipment solutions to the oil, gas, petrochemical, and process industries, has acquired certain intellectual property assets from Energy Storage and Power LLC ("ES&P") and Dr. Michael Nakhamkin. Dresser-Rand has purchased all patents, trademarks and other intellectual property associated with compressed air energy storage (CAES) technology developed by Dr. Nakhamkin, and is retaining Dr. Nakhamkin, ES&P's owner, as a consultant. The acquired intellectual property complements Dresser-Rand's current SMARTCAES™ compressed air energy storage technology and expands the range of its offerings. Dresser-Rand will now be able to provide the smallest to the largest CAES projects to meet specific grid scale requirements. Dresser-Rand will provide complete CAES solutions from conceptual design through project optimization in addition to provision of equipment supply, engineering services and a full range of aftermarket services for its entire CAES product line. Aftermarket services also include long-term maintenance agreements. According to James Heid, Dresser-Rand's Vice President of Business Solutions, "Dresser-Rand continues to believe that, based on the proliferation of renewable energy in the form of solar and wind power, there will be a strong market for energy storage in the form of CAES in the near and longer-term. As such, we view the technology developed by Dr. Nakhamkin as complementary to the base technology we presently offer and which has been successfully operating for over 20 years." According to Heid, CAES is an enabling technology that allows clients to store bulk electrical power on a utility scale and withdraw it on demand when the power is needed. It also provides a much needed load source when in compression mode that prevents curtailment of renewables and base load electrical generation. CAES also provides ancillary services/electrical products necessary to ensure the consistent deployment of renewable energy.

| WikiLeaks is the most challenging journalistic phenomenon to have emerged in the digital era. It has provoked anger and enthusiasm in equal measure, from across the political and journalistic spectrum. WikiLeaks poses a series of questions to the status quo in politics, journalism and to the ways we understand political communication. It has compromised the foreign policy operations of the most powerful state in the world, broken stories comparable to great historic scoops like the Pentagon Papers, and caused the mighty international news organizations to collaborate with this tiny editorial outfit. Yet it may also be on the verge of extinction. This is the first book to examine WikiLeaks fully and critically and its place in the contemporary news environment. The authors combine inside knowledge with the latest media research and analysis to argue that the significance of Wikileaks is that it is part of the shift in the nature of news to a network system that is contestable and unstable. Welcome to Wiki World and a new age of uncertainty.

Marie Kraup heads the Dansk Folkeparti in Denmark which is very upset at people who come to their country and don't even speak Danish, let alone knowing anything about the history and customs of their society. As far as Marie is concerned, Denmark for Danes and all others can leave her land. For some strange reason, Marie decided to go visiting in the world. She arrived in New Zealand where she visited a naval base, and was shocked to learn these people don't even speak Danish!! Even worse, instead of being "met with handshakes or salutes by uniformed men" the Danes were "greeted by a Maroi dance ritual with a half-naked man in a grass skirt that yelled and screamed in Maroi."
Horror of horror, Marie was forced to give the Maroi greeting of rubbing noses together! Perhaps the most horrible sight was that of a penis in a Maroi temple. What can one expect from people who don't even speak Danish??

The eagerly awaited Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 4.4 update will be rolled out in late January, French carrier SFR has suggested.
Although Samsung has yet to announce exactly when Samsung Galaxy S4 owners can expect an official Android 4.4 update, last month a leaked internal document from the Korean manufacturer suggested that a KitKat update would be rolled out to the flagship phone in January 2014.
Now, French carrier SFR has added further backing to the January Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 4.4 update claims, stating that the HTC One rival will make the move to the latest Android OS in a matter of weeks.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 update will reportedly be rolled out alongside a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 update that will see the company's latest phablet offering also add a KitKat filling.
"The update to Android 4.4 (Kit Kat) should be available between late January and early February 2014 for Samsung Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3," an SFR statement on the company's official blog has announced.
Originally launched aboard the Google Nexus 5, the Android 4.4 KitKat OS will bring a number of improvements to the Samsung Galaxy S4, including an all new Google search app integrated within the phone's homescreen, improved Hangouts functionality and background performance enhancements.
Last month the Samsung Galaxy S4 was handed an Android 4.3 update which brought Samsun Galaxy Gear compatibility to the phone for the first time.

Cemetery notes and/or description:
In a book I have it states "Phineas & Barbara or Barbary (Stump) Cox were buried in the Cox Family Cemetery @ Blue Level, Warren County, KY. It don't state if it's the town of Blue Level KY or simply Blue Level road. Then I found a website that says it's the Cox Family Cemetery, Kittle Stick Farm, Warren County, KY. I've sent an email to their local library hoping for some help.
In the mean-time if you're from Warren County KY & know anything about the area/can help me tell people exactly where the Cox Family Cemetery is located I'd really appreciate it. :)
Update: A Cox cousin just sent me some paperwork. It was "copied by Mildred Tucker Hardcastle, Regent, Samuel Davies Chapter - D.A.R."
Cox Graveyard located on farm of Carol A. Duncan, 10 miles ? of Bowling Green, Warren County, KY, near Galloway's Mill Road. Stallard Springs Magisterial District.
A second piece of paper states "located in Kiddlestick Hallow, this old plot is hard to reach now & is virtually destroyed by nature & cattle - fence is all down & plot is in very sad condition. Copied many years ago by Mildred Tucker Hardcastle & was brought up to date by O. L. Thomas & W. S. Stone."

Weapon wielding householders
Last updated: 16 July 2007
One in three people in the UK stash a weapon in their home to protect themselves from intruders
Almost a third of UK residents store a weapon close to their beds to use against intruders.
According to a survey, householders confessed to stashing items such as golf clubs, cricket bats and heavy torches to use in self-defence. [A firearm sure would be a more effective choice than any of these, wouldn't they? :rolleyes:]
Remainder of the story here:
I can't help but think of Winston Churchill (mentioned on another thread today): "We will fight them on the beaches [with our golf clubs], we shall fight on the landing grounds [with our cricket bats], we shall fight in the fields and in the streets [with our heavy torches]...."
Doesn't have quite the same ring, does it? :frown:

"Dollar boys" keep Sierra Leone in business
By Simon Akam
FREETOWN (Reuters) - Alhaji Bangura plies his trade on Siaka Stevens street in the heart of Sierra Leone's capital, a wad of "leone" banknotes in hand.
He is a "dollar boy," part of a poorly remunerated army that trades foreign exchange in a country where hard currency is hard to find and labor is cheap.
"Anyone that wants to change, I can change for them, white or black," explained the 28-year-old.
A ragtag group known for piercing cries of "dollars, pounds, euros!," the dollar boys form a pillar of the war-scarred West African state's economy, providing traders and companies, access to currency the central bank cannot supply.
"The reason why the economy has not collapsed and things have not come to a halt is that informal arrangements fill the gap," said Financial Secretary Edmund Koroma, referring to both the dollar boys as well as to the bilateral deals formed between exporters and importers.
When the global financial crisis struck in 2008, it hit demand for Sierra Leone's main foreign exchange earner -- and ultimate luxury commodity -- diamonds.
With forex now scarce, the elaborate "dollar boy" network provides a crucial service for everyone from small-time traders to large-scale importers.
"It's much better from the street than the bank," said Mohamed Musa Sesay, who imports shoes, jeans and stationery from neighboring Guinea as well as Gambia and Senegal. Continued...

Europa League: Sevilla beat Freiburg 2-0 in Group H in Spain
Diego Perotti and Carlos Bacca earned Sevilla a 2-0 victory over 10-man Freiburg in Europa League Group H.
Last Updated: 03/10/13 9:11pm
Diego Perotti's penalty and a last-gasp strike from Carlos Bacca earned Sevilla a 2-0 victory over 10-man Freiburg in Europa League Group H.
The Spaniards, who have struggled in the Primera Division this campaign with just one win from their opening seven matches, made it six points from an available six at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
Sevilla took a stranglehold on the game when Perotti slotted home from the spot on 63 minutes after Fallou Diagne was given his marching orders for a foul inside the area on Bacca, who made sure of the win in the final minute.
It was the German visitors who started strongly, however, with Sevilla goalkeeper Javi Varas keeping out efforts from Mike Hanke and Tim Albutat respectively.
Los Rojiblancos grew steadily stronger, with Bacca first firing wide of goal from a decent position before his next effort was tipped over by Freiburg custodian Oliver Baumann, who also managed to palm away Vicente Iborra's 30-yard effort.
Strikes from Ivan Rakitic and Diego Perotti also kept Baumann on his toes and the keeper ensured the sides went in level at half-time with a brilliant save from Diogo Figueiras' strike from the edge of the box.
After a quiet start to the second half, Sevilla were nearly made to pay for their profligacy in the opening 45 minutes as Varas had to parry away Tim Albutat's strike from 12 yards.
But the visitors' hopes of coming away with all three points were damaged when Sevilla were awarded a penalty in the 63rd minute after Diagne had fouled Bacca in the Freiburg area.
Worse was to come for Christian Streich's men, who were reduced to 10 men as Diagne was given a second yellow card for the challenge.
Perotti made no mistake with his penalty, slotting low to the left to break the deadlock.
Rakitic should have perhaps doubled Sevilla's lead but he was denied by Baumann, whose opposite number Varas made an equally spectacular save at the other end from Hanke's point-blank effort.
Bacca then struck a post in the closing stages but he would not be denied a goal when he stroked home from close range following Jairo Samperio's through ball from the left side of the penalty area.

Common Class of Drugs May Be Linked to Pneumonia Risk
Posted 3 Mar 2015 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, March 3, 2015 – Drugs used to treat a wide range of health problems may be associated with an increased risk of pneumonia, a new study suggests. Anticholinergic medications include those used for conditions such as allergies (for example, Benadryl), overactive bladder (including Ditropan), depression (for example, doxepin) and insomnia (Sominex, etc.). "Our study is the first to address whether oral anticholinergic medications affect the risk of pneumonia in older people," senior author Dr. Sascha Dublin, an associate investigator at the Seattle-based Group Health Research Institute, said in an institute news release. "This is important because so many older people use these medications, and pneumonia is such a common cause of illness and death in this age group," Dublin explained. Researchers looked at more than 1,000 patients with pneumonia, aged 65 to 94, and a group of ... Read more

Certain Meds, Driving Can Be Deadly Mix: FDA
Posted 7 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, Oct. 7, 2014 – Thinking about taking a drive after popping some over-the-counter medications? Better check the label first, warn experts at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The agency cautions that some common nonprescription medicines can impair your ability to drive and operate other vehicles and machinery safely. Some of the most common of these drugs include certain types of nonprescription antihistamines, anti-diarrheals, and anti-nausea medications, according to the FDA. "You can feel the effects some over-the-counter medicines can have on your driving for a short time after you take them, or their effects can last for several hours," Dr. Ali Mohamadi, a medical officer at the FDA, said in an agency news release. "In some cases, a medicine can cause significant 'hangover-like' effects and affect your driving even the next day." And if you haven't had enough ... Read more

Some People With Alzheimer's Take Conflicting Drugs
Posted 28 Oct 2011 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, Oct. 28 – Many Alzheimer's patients who take cholinesterase inhibitors to slow their brain disease also take drugs that counter the effects of those Alzheimer's medications, a new study says. Clinical trials have shown that cholinesterase inhibitors such as Aricept (donepezil) have a modest impact on the functional and cognitive decline caused by Alzheimer's disease, noted the researchers at the Group Health Research Institute in Seattle. "Cholinesterase inhibitors are today's primary therapy for slowing Alzheimer's disease," study leader Denise Boudreau said in an institute news release. "Anticholinergic properties are often found in drugs commonly used to treat gastrointestinal disorders, allergies, urinary incontinence, depression and Parkinson's disease, and they can have negative effects on cognition and function in the elderly. There's concern that if someone is taking ... Read more

Some People Can't Stomach the New 3-D Movies
Posted 8 Apr 2010 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, April 8 – The new crop of 3-D movies hitting theaters are making some people sick – literally. It's not the alien creatures bleeding off the screen or half-eaten humans spit out in your direction by fierce dragons. It's just the way 3-D plays tricks on your brain, mimicking symptoms of motion sickness. The problem, if you have one, may lie in your head and, in particular, your eyes, experts note. An unlucky (or lucky, depending on your point of view) 5 percent of the population have such bad eye coordination they can't perceive 3-D at all. But if these people decide to plunk down $20 for Avatar or Alice in Wonderland, at least they won't get a headache. "In 3-D movies, your eyes have to be working together as a team perfectly. You have to have equally clear images in both eyes," explained Dr. James J. Salz, spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmology and clinical ... Read more
