47 Excalibur
— By Capt. Bill Pike
— November 2001
Cruise Control
|Wellcraft introduces a plush 47-footer with a performance punch.
I remember the first Riviera I ever tested. She was an Australian-built sportfisherman--a 36-footer or thereabouts--and maybe a little angular and unfashionable by the Euro-style standards of the late 1980s. She was also quite nicely put together, as I recall, thanks to modern construction methods from an up-and-coming company that had only been around since the beginning of the decade. Few builders at the time were incorporating rot-proof solid-fiberglass stringers, transversals, and panel stiffeners into their boats or, for that matter, leakproof windshields with receivers and mullions of fiberglass instead of anodized aluminum.
Rivieras are still being built in Australia today, of course, but the way they enter the American market's changed some. While Riviera dealerships go on offering an ever-expanding array of sportfishing convertibles and other vessels imported in the usual manner, a few models are being sold under the Wellcraft marque via a Wellcraft/Riviera partnership that started with the introduction of the Wellcraft 45 Excalibur some seven years ago. The partnership remains effective. Wellcraft continues to put design, transportation, and marketing acumen into the mix, and Riviera contributes its own design skills as well as a raft of sophisticated construction techniques, primarily because Riviera was into all-glass boatbuilding well before the majority of stateside builders were even experimenting with the concept.
The latest addition to the Wellcraft/Riviera line is the Wellcraft 47 Excalibur, a slightly expanded, more curvaceous version of the 45 Excalibur, which it replaces. I tested the 47 on Tampa Bay recently, under typical central-Florida, summertime-afternoon conditions, which means seas running somewhere between one and two feet and humidity and temperature readings lusty enough to raise a sweat on an empty deckshoe. My first impression was a lasting one: While the 47 is certainly a luxurious cruiser, her true essence is as obvious and palpable as a Wellcraft Scarab's: high-performance speed and handling.
Three aspects of the 47 are aimed at accomplishing this. First, there's the race-bred deep-V hull form. With a transom deadrise of 21 degrees, two lifting strakes on either side of centerline, and wide, stabilizing chine flats aft, the 47's running surface is expressly shaped to slice waves and track like a train on straightaways. Moreover, a subtle rounding of the bottom near the stern generates speed-enhancing lift there and facilitates the sideways slide of water under the keel for tighter turns.

Having a job on an auto assembly line makes you a maker, not a taker, and Romney and the Republicans forgot that.
Yesterday afternoon, David tweeted that he was a maker and a taker too.
As both a writer and a maker of objects, both practices must be psychologically very close for you.

After Rudy Weddle returned from overseas combat in Korea and tried to join his local VFW post in Roanoke, Va., he was turned away.
"They wouldn't let me join," he said. "They said I hadn't been in a war, that it was a 'police action.' It wasn't a police action. Even though nobody attacked us, we were in a war."
It's called the "Forgotten War," although those like Weddle, now 81, remember it.

WATCH: Wendy Williams shades Nene Leakes' 'DWTS' gig
We're still not sure why Wendy Williams and Nene Leakes have a long-standing beef, but the talk show host shared some shady words of wisdom with the reality star who is gearing up for a stint on Dancing With The Stars.
Nene will share the same partner that Wendy had when she attempted to take the mirror ball trophy home and Wendy doesn't think they have a chance.
"As I predicted, Tony Dovolani, my former partner, will be NeNe's partner because he always gets the big ones," she said.
"Let's see how this is going to play out. Tony has already won a Mirror Ball Trophy. He's very, very serious about his dancing. He does not play around."
Wendy questioned whether or not Nene has what it takes to buckle down and do the work required to be successful not he dance floor.
"NeNe, I don't know whether you're disciplined like that to be dancing because I wasn't," she admitted.
"He's not fun, NeNe. I wish you well, but you all aren't going to win!"

Box score
LEWISBURG, Pa. - Billy Eisenreich and the Bucknell offense kept on rolling Tuesday night, as the 20th-ranked Bison led comfortably from start to finish and picked up their fifth straight win, 17-10 over Robert Morris on a warm night at Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium. Eisenreich scored five goals and assisted on six more, giving him a share of the program single-game record with 11 points, while Chase Bailey (4) and Peter Burke (3) combined for another seven goals.
The Bison improved to 5-3 on the season and avenged last season's 7-5 loss to Colonials, one of only three losses for Bucknell in all of 2011. The Bison had five goals by the end of the first quarter in this one, they led 9-4 at the half, and after Robert Morris pulled within 12-8 with 13:00 to go, Bucknell put it away with a 5-0 run.
Robert Morris (5-3) had won its previous two games, including a road win over No. 18 Ohio State last week. Dave Morton had a big night for the Colonials with four goals and an assist, while Kiel Matisz added three goals. The Bison kept 19-goal scorer Jake Hayes off the scoresheet. The nation's most accurate shooter at 65.5 percent went 0-for-2.
Eisenreich had a hand in four of Bucknell's six fourth-quarter goals. His final tally was a man-up goal with 5:30 to play that gave Bucknell a 17-8 lead. That made him the fourth player in program history to record 11 points in a game. Peter von Hoffmann was the first to do it against Penn State in 1979. Matt Fraser tallied 11 points against Lafayette in 1980, and Chris Cara did it against the Leopards in 2004.
Eisenreich, who now has 20 goals and 22 assists on the season, fell two shy of the Patriot League mark of 13 points in a game, set by Colgate's Derek Laub in 1993. He staked Bucknell to an early 2-0 lead with a pair of unassisted goals, the first of which came while prone on the turf, and then he fed Bailey on the doorstep for a 3-0 lead. Burke's lefthanded shot on the run with 2:50 left in the opening quarter gave the Bison a 4-0 lead.
Robert Morris, which came in averaging nearly 12 goals per game, finally got on the board on a Casey Abbott goal with 1:43 left in the opening period, but in the final minute of the quarter Burke made a nifty swim dodge over a defender and fired past Dillon Pope for a 5-1 advantage.
Bucknell did almost all of its damage from behind the goal, either with Eisenreich feeding to the wings or on one-on-one dodges from X. David Dickson and Eisenreich started the second quarter with unassisted goals coming from behind, chasing Pope from the game in favor of Charles Ruppert.
Bucknell's lead was 8-3 later in the second period when Eisenreich and Bailey teamed up for the goal of the night. From the left of the goal, Eisenreich threaded a pass across the crease to Bailey, who made the catch in traffic before firing a behind-the-back shot past Ruppert.
Robert Morris outscored Bucknell 3-2 in the third quarter to pull within 11-7. Eisenreich started the fourth-quarter with a dizzying series of jukes behind the goal, and by the time he was finished he had faked out both a defender and the goalie, and he simply shoveled the ball into an empty net for a 12-7 lead. After Abbott answered for the Colonials, Burke ignited the decisive 5-0 run with his third goal of the day.
Bucknell goal-scoring leader Todd Heritage, who was clearly the focus of the Robert Morris defense, broke loose for his 23rd of the season off a nice feed from Nick Gantsoudes with 8:06 left. Billy Mattimore entered his name on the scoresheet a few minutes later off a feed from Eisenreich, and then Bailey and Eisenreich finished the Bucknell scoring with a pair of man-up goals.
Robert Morris was flagged for 10 penalties in the game, eight of them coming in the fourth quarter. The Bison had a chance to pile on some more goals with the Colonials filling up the penalty box and their defense out chasing the ball, but Bucknell passed up a number of empty-net scoring opportunities in favor of draining the clock.
Bucknell came into the game ranked sixth nationally in scoring offense at 12.6 goals per game, and the Bison upped that average to 13.1 on Tuesday. They now have 74 goals during this five-game winning streak.
Bucknell was also the nation's most accurate shooting team entering the night, and that figure also improved. The Bison came in shooting 39.3 percent, and after a 17-for-39 effort (.436) on Tuesday, that season mark went up to 39.9 percent.
The Bison handled the ball very well, committing only 10 turnovers while going 15-for-17 on clears. Bucknell finished with a 39-32 edge in shots, while Robert Morris won the ground ball battle 30-29 behind a game-high 11 from faceoff man Mike Grosz, who won 15 of 28.
Ryan Gutowski had a good night at the X for Bucknell, winning 7 of 11 with five ground balls. Goalie Kyle Feeney finished with 10 saves, while three different Colonials netminders combined for 10.
Bucknell is back home on Saturday against Albany at noon.

This is the aquarium with seven artificial jellyfish that drift and swim through a glowing, serene seascape. Providing a tranquil water vista without the maintenance of typical models, the 1 1/4-gallon aquarium has a silent motor that generates gentle currents, causing the jellyfish to rise, fall, and undulate in the water. Thirteen blue, red, and green LEDs combine to illuminate the translucent jellyfish with a color-changing glow as they float throughout the water. The base of the aquarium has a bed of "sand," seashells, and a starfish. Requiring as little space as a computer keyboard, the aquarium sets up unobtrusively on a desk or bookshelf. Plugs into AC. 17 3/4" L x 9 1/2" H x 3" W. (3 1/3 lbs.)

Eating disorders are so much more then problems with weigh gain or loss. I want you to understand that together we can work to find the core problem. This process is often lengthy and difficult - yet - it always provides you with fulfillment. You will be able to regain control of your life - manage what you want and what you do not want - reclaim relationships that may have been lost or hidden - and most important live the life that "you" not anyone else "simply you" desire.

In this guest post, Presenter Lisa A. Alzo breaks down her sessions on Canadian immigration records and tracking down evasive female ancestors at the Family Tree University's Fall 2012 Virtual Genealogy Conference:
When I started my genealogy research over 22 years ago, I began with a female ancestor: my maternal grandmother. This was before the Internet and without the luxury of FamilySearch, the Ellis Island Database or Ancestry.com. Nothing like starting out with a challenge! But I used the information available to me—family documents, interviews, church records, court documents and microfilm—as well as made trips to the library and visited the places she had lived. I was thus able to learn the details of her life, which I chronicled in my book Three Slovak Women. In my Virtual Conference session, "Secrets for Tracing Female Ancestors", I will reveal my secrets for locating and using online and offline resources, and will share other tips and tricks you'll need to find the elusive women in your family tree!
As a child, my family would visit my father's cousin in Ontario, Canada. At the time I fleetingly wondered why he lived so far away, but never questioned it until I became a genealogist and began tracking down clues about my Alzo ancestors. Curiosity led me to investigate sources in Canada, with some very interesting and surprising results! If you have ancestors who immigrated to Canada (or even think it's a possibility), then join me for the session Canadian Immigration Records, where I'll walk you through the basics of searching in the Great White North. You'll learn about websites, databases and printed resources to help you locate passenger lists, border crossings and other immigration records, as well as search secrets to draw your ancestors out of hiding!

text: Apparently even though Farrah Abraham won't admit it publicly she did tell one of her friends that the boyfriend she was supposed to bring on Couples Therapy was not really her boyfriend but that she was backed into a corner because her first choice and the guy she was seeing at the time of the casting backed out on her because he is still married. The friend was a little iffy on the whole marriage thing as to whether the guy is separated or still living in the same house but just that he didn't think it was right for him to be going on national television with Farrah while he was still married because it might look bad in a headline. Yeah, it does look kind of bad because there is not usually room in a headline to say that someone is separated or to get into those nuances. I'm actually shocked Farrah didn't pick one of the corpses she posed with for that magazine to be her boyfriend. I'm also shocked she didn't think to just come out to LA and find some starving actor who would have jumped at the chance to portray her boyfriend on a national show for mid five figures. Casting a DJ in Orlando who has a girlfriend is not the way to go. Lesson learned.

Philips' inspection lamp bathes the surrounding area in a bright white light with an intensity of 2400 lux. The 45 high-powered LEDs are arranged in such a way that they illuminate evenly with an angle of 180 degrees, the vendor said.
The lamp's slim design and 10 meter cable mean that even difficult-to-access areas can be reached easily, Philips said. The adjustable mounting hook is also practical, with both hands being kept free for working. Another version is also available with a 24V industrial plug to meet the workplace safety requirements in certain European countries.
The LED inspection lamp is water and dust-protected and also offers strong impact resistance.

Higher Prices For Milk Forecast
Get ready for higher prices in the milk cooler.
1200 WOAI's Stephanie Narvaez reports a combination of factors, from higher demand for Texas milk abroad to a lingering lack of cattle stemming from the 2011 drought will combine to push up milk prices 60 cents a gallon between now and June.
"We've got really booming demand for dairy products at the same time as we really don't have a lot of increase in production going," Dr. David Anderson, a livestock economist at Teas A&M tells 1200 WOAI news.
He says this time it is not the inaction of an incompetent U.S. Congress that is causing the milk price rise, just simple supply and demand.
"Are exports are growing and China is a big reason for that," Anderson said. "Increasing demand of milk production in the U.S. is not growing very quickly."
The high price of cattle feed during the brutal drought of 2011 prompted many ranchers to liquidate their herds, and it takes several years for a cattle herd to grow back. Some estimates say the Texas cattle herd today is at its lowest level since the 1950s.

Banner Elk, N.C.- The Brevard College Tornados downed the Lees-McRae Bobcats 63-57 in Williams Gymnasium on Saturday afternoon.
BC rallied from a seven-point halftime deficit to pick up the nonconference win, with the Tornados taking their first lead of the second half on a Taylor Hiatt layup with 11:02 remaining in the game.
The Bobcats tied the game at 44-44 and again at 46-46 before Micheala Watkins scored five unanswered points to give Brevard a 51-46 lead. Watkins hit a three with the game tied at 46 all, and then hit two free throws at the 5:53 mark to complete the run.
Watkins dropped in a team-high 19 points to fuel the Tornados scoring efforts, including shooting 9-for-10 from the foul line. The senior stuffed the box score with four rebounds, three assists and four steals.
The Tornados got another solid performance from freshman Tuccoa Brackett, who had 17 points and six rebounds on the afternoon. Fellow freshman Katie Williams chipped in eight points off the bench for BC, going 2-for-3 from three-point range and 2-for-2 from the line in 14 minutes of action.
Layana De Souza was instrumental in Lees-McRae's strong first half, scoring 15 of her 21 points before the break. The junior was a perfect 11-of-11 from the charity stripe and 2-for-2 from beyond the arc in 36 minutes off the bench for the Bobcats.
The Tornados are back in action as they square off against the Presbyterian College Blue Hose on Tuesday morning. The tip from the Templeton Center is set for 11:30 a.m.

Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies
News about the FGPS Research Day 2011
Nov 30/11
A successful Research Day in the Faculty of Graduate & Postdoctoral Studies
Last Wednesday, October 23, saw the inaugural "Research Day" presentations by graduate student recipients of the first Research and Travel Awards, initiated in 2011. It was an all-day event, starting at 9:30 in the morning, and lasting until 4:00 PM.Participants and visitors were treated to over twenty presentations, each fifteen minutes long, by graduate students in a range of disciplines, including Management, Psychology, Global Governance, Religious Studies, History, English and Film Studies, and Social Work.
The research on display, the scholarly acumen, the passion and energy, were all at an exceedingly high level, with topics ranging from religious currents in India, to research into Aboriginal health policy, to supply chain management, to what it means to be a social worker, and everything in between. It also afforded graduate students and faculty the opportunity to interact with each other, share interests, and listen to how similar lines of inquiry are pursued in various disciplines, and many students remarked on how intriguing it was to meet graduate students in other disciplines whose research, theory, and arguments touched so closely upon their own, and enlarged upon the field of specialty.
It is our hope that new lines of inquiry and communication and perhaps even friendships were initiated in the process, and that this will continue to be the case as we pursue similar events in the coming years.
See the abstracts for the research presentations.

Father away from a son
I am a mum of a 2 year old son and his father is working miles apart from us. My son knows his dad by face but they seldom talk due to working hours and some inevitable circumstances and my husband is thinking that our son is starting not to talk him anymore. This has been our ongoing issue for I for myself do everything that our son wouldn't forget everything about his dad. Is there any way or better approach that I can do to explain to my husband that he still exists?

I am so glad that you asked this question.
I am going through something very similar with my children as their father has been working out of the country for 6 months now. I have 3 boys who miss their father dearly.
Their father also mentioned that he cant understand why the boys do not want to talk to him when he skypes with us.
It is so very frustrating trying to explain to both the boys and my husband how I see things panning out.
They know their father cares and loves them, however I do feel that they need to see him soon. Boys especially tend to desire a father figure in their lives and thrive with that male attention.
Is their a way to plan a visit with your sons father soon?
Or could a close family member step in and take your son for fun outings or come spend time with him in your home?
I wish I had a clear cut answer, each of our situations is so very different and unique.
Please do know that you are NOT alone in this situation.
Our boys are very dear to us mother's.
Peace and Love

Hello sunnymumof5,
Thank you for sharing your situation.
As of the moment, I am uncertain when the three of us could meet physically. We are experiencing financial constraints that hinders us to do so.
On the light side, my dad and my brother and our close relatives are there to fill in the father figure for my son. It's just that, my husband is thinking negative on it. He seemed that his son loses interest on him and that our little boy's love is fading away. I am caught in between and saddened that I don't to take side as I love them both.
Thanks for sharing the same sentiments.
Best regards,

Our situations sound very much alike.
My husband also feels that our boys are losing interest in him as well.
I can sympathize with feeling in between the two of them.
I am happy to hear that you have family willing to support you in raising your son.
I'm always here if you want to chat some more.

Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
I love Jamal in our backfield however his salary will be 11million next year. If he won't take a cut we will have to let him go.

Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
I think Jamal is probably done in Baltimore. We have mike anderson, PJ Daniels, may draft a day 1 RB.
AD might be tough, but worst case I hope we can at worst tag-trade him.
Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
Regardless of AD I want to see Jamal back at a reduced price. There is no way he returns at what he is set to be paid. I think he can get back to being a top 10 RB in the NFL for another year or two. The guy never really broke loose this year but still got 1,100+ yards and 10 TD's. And most importantly he was a "team player" this year. No crying to the media after each game like last year about touches. He even looked good after the catch on Saturday.
Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
He was better Saturday than in most games this season. At least you could see the effort. But...3.5 yd. average - who needs that? Sayonara.ENFORCE THE 1ST AMENDMENT WITH THE SECOND, NEVER DISARM

Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
Michael Turner would look really good in purple. He is a restricted free agent that the Chargers won't be able to keep. He was also just a 5th round pick. With the Ravens compensatory picks this year, we can afford to give up our 5th, even though we also gave up our 4th (McNair). He has averaged 6 yards per carry as a pro and he's also a good kick returner. As we've seen, it helps to have depth there. Now, I don't know the Chargers cap situation and at which level they will tender Turner, so I could be way off base here.
I am not up to speed yet on our cap situation either but I know we are tight. I think it is time to part with Musa and Jamal. This offense badly needs a consistent running game and Turner is a tough, stocky dude that hits the hole and gets through it, north and south, without a cha-cha step thrown in. I swear, at times, Turner looks like Tomlinson's equal. The Chargers certainly had no drop-off when LT split carries with Turner when LT was banged up in 2005. The Turner move makes a lot of sense to me assuming we have the cap room.
Our Ravens have 1 year of potential domination left with the current cast of characters. Jamal showed what he can do and it's only marginally enough. Anderson seems to be the best back on the team but Billick obviously doesn't think so. I don't think we can hand the reigns over to a rookie. If we restructure Jamal then Turner is off the table obviously and Michael Bush may be our first pick.
As for AD - he's gone, unless AD takes a whole lot less to stay. That is not likely. No way the Ravens can afford him and it's not in Ozzie's style to overpay an older player who's entire game is based on speed. Ozzie will not be paying AD a premium as his skills deteriorate down the line. I love AD as much as the next guy but he's a speed guy that disappears against better talent. His stats are incredible and he deserves his payday. He will get it from San Francisco and he will join a young, talented, up and coming team that lost Julian Peterson last year. AD can help them on defense and provide leadership. Nolan probably knows that. We cannot afford AD. He wants to get paid and deserves to. I am sorry to say it but it won't be here - that's just the reality.

Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
If Jamal is smart and gives up his ideas of being a top paid RB, he'll be back.
Just like with Clarence Moore, the coaches like him too much, so if he caves to their salary demands, we'll bring him back for another year or two..
When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. Thats the Baltimore Raven way. - Steve Smith Sr.
Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!
Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
yeah i agree also, i love jamal but the guy has slown down way 2 much 2 be paid top RB money. the guy should stick around and get a cut.

Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
Jamal has cost us in many ways this year -- even though he has tried.
it is a fact that our running game productivity was at the bottom of the league
we could either blame it on the line, the back or a combination of both
What i observed this year, is that there were enough times where anderson and musa smith came in with longer yards per carry to not blame the line completely.
he unfortunately is looking like earl campbell 2 -- a few steps slower every year due to that physical style. On the business side, I would be looking for a combination of Anderson (we paid him the money already) and a rookie (history of good production if you can find a good one in the first 2 rounds)
I do appreciate as a fan, however, that Jamal's attitude really took a turn for the better this year -- I think he gave us all he had

Re: Jamal Lewis 2007 ????
I think that's fair, Merlin. Personally, I would like to see Mike, Ovie, and Turner from SD. Since it's obvious that Billick is going to run a Billickball offense, we might as well stop kidding ourselves, and get the personnel that is going to work here under Billick. The "promotion" of Rick is an effin joke -- it's yet another attempt by control freak Billick to set up a decoy to try to hide the truth about who's really running the show. It sux, but with our D pretty much intact, and McNair with a year in our system under his body armor, we should be in pretty good shape as far as the AFC North is concerned. I think Turner could be the key to get us back to the post season next year.
As far as Rick serving as the OC, I only have 2 things to say:

Capitol Reef National Park predicts its fruit harvest will be later than usual this summer and crops will be smaller due to colder 2012 winter temperatures and late frost.
Nonetheless, cherries, apricots, peaches, plums, apples and pears will be available for harvest in the park, which allows visitors to pick fruit for a nominal fee, a news release said. Capitol Reef uses money collected through the fruit harvest to defray the cost of maintaining the orchards.
The historic Fruita orchards within the park are among the largest orchards within the National Park System and were established in the 1880s by pioneer residents of Fruita.
Up-to-date harvest and pricing information is recorded on a fruit hot line as fruit ripens and harvest dates are determined. The hotline may be reached by calling 435-425-3791. Once the park number connects, press one for general information and at the voice prompt for the orchard hit line, press five.
Fruit harvest information is also available on the park's Facebook page, and on Twitter @CapitolReefNPS.

Collins, Lobstein make it easy for Erie
Outfielder homers twice, lefty takes no-no into seventh in win
By Jonathan Raymond / Special to MLB.com | May 2, 2013 7:52 PM ET
Over the long course of a baseball season, there's going to be a game every now and then where everything just goes right. The top prospect has a big game at the plate. The starting pitcher seems unhittable.
Witness Thursday's game for Double-A Erie.
No. 6 Tigers prospect Tyler Collins homered twice and left-hander Kyle Lobstein took a no-hitter into the seventh inning as the SeaWolves cruised to a 9-1 win over the Binghamton Mets.
Collins drove in five runs and Lobstein (3-2) went 6 2/3 innings without allowing a hit, finishing with one unearned run on a hit and two walks while striking out six over seven frames.
It was Collins' third straight game with at least one longball, after he'd hit just one in his first 18 contests of the season.
"[Hitting two homers] felt fantastic and it feels even better to get the win, especially when Lobstein goes out and throws his butt off," Collins said. "To give him peace of mind and a comfortable lead was good enough for me.
"All I know is I did a lot of standing around in left field. It makes it easy on me, almost like I get to go rest and think about what I'm doing at the plate and take that to the next at-bat. When you've got a pitcher mowing guys down, it makes it a lot easier."
A sixth-rounder in the 2011 Draft, Collins upped his batting line to .260/.326/.532 in 21 games this year with the recent power spike. He said some tips from coaches and work in the cage helped him get his timing right.
"I noticed I wasn't getting my foot down as quick as I would've liked to," he said. "I was just kind of late on everything. [Tigers Minor League hitting coordinator] Bruce Fields watched some film from Spring Training and said to me, 'It seems you're getting it down late,' and helped me get back on track.
"I was suggested by our hitting coach Gerald Perry to go sit in on a couple of bullpens, kind of work on when I think I needed to get my foot down. I did that for a couple days and it started coming back to me."
For his part, Lobstein followed up an eight-inning, one-run performance April 27 with his most complete outing of the season. The 23-year-old, who was a Rule 5 Draft pick by the Mets over the offseason and then came to Detroit in a December trade, has allowed just three earned runs over 21 innings in his last three starts.
Lobstein has a 2.89 ERA in 37 1/3 frames this season. He has struck out 36 and walked 11.
"There was a little bit of settling in for the season. In Spring Training, during the first part I was working in a reliever role. Those first few starts during the season I was still trying to adjust in that starting role," he said. "I'm definitely feeling a lot more comfortable now."
The 2008 second-round pick said he also appreciated the big lead he was handed Thursday.
"I knew yesterday the guys were hitting the ball great and going into today that already gives me a confidence boost," he said. "It really relaxes you if you can go out there and pitch with a lead, it's always great."
No. 19 Tigers prospect Ramon Cabrera doubled, walked and drove in two runs, while seventh-ranked Detroit prospect Daniel Fields went 2-for-5 with a run scored out of the leadoff spot.

BCS Bits - Media Comments, October 23, 2009There has been a bit of dialogue (or "mono"?) this week about college football's post-season. Here is one gentleman's take on the matter:
Oh, and one more…
Virtual playoff begins as road games make champions
From ESPN.com October 22
By Rece Davis, ESPN.com
You want a playoff in college football? With the release of the initial BCS standings, the playoffs are in full swing. It might not be in the tidy tournament format the new Playoff Action Committee wants, but let me ask you this. How often do you hear gripes about teams left out of the NCAA basketball tournament? My point is a playoff format wouldn't fix everything. The fifth-best team or ninth-best team or 17th-best team would be griping. To illuminate my point, if you used the BCS standings at the moment, Cincinnati wouldn't make a four-team playoff. LSU would be squeezed out of an 8-team field. In a never-going-to-happen-in-our lifetime 16-team bracket, Oklahoma State would be in, Houston out. Remember what happened on the field in Stillwater?

Suspect Wanted Following Pursuit is Finally Arrested
Suspect in Violation of Not Registering as a Sex Offender
Los Alamos - April 22nd, 2013
A suspect who led a Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Deputy on a pursuit outside of Lompoc on April 14th, drove his car over an embankment and fled on foot prompting a massive search to find him that involved Deputies, a K9 unit and Santa Barbara County Air Support Unit Copter 3 along with California Highway Patrol Officers and Lompoc Officers is finally behind bars. 27-year-old Michael Ibison of Los Alamos was arrested last night April 21st, one week after the pursuit.

'The Biggest Beehive I Have Ever Seen'
Some Ogden Valley cabin owners have discovered why they've been pestered by honeybees for several years.
Actually, Ogden beekeeper Vic Bachman did it for them.
When the owners called him to investigate, he says he found the biggest beehive he's ever seen, in the cabin's rafters.
He removed the hive -- which is 12 feet long, four feet wide, and more than a foot deep.
Bachman says it was home to an estimated 60,000 bees.

Advisory to Consumers of Electronic Cigarettes, Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) And Other Vapor Products
All consumers are advised to use caution when using or considering the use of electronic cigarettes, electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) and other vapor products.
E-cigarettes/vapor products contain chemicals, including nicotine, which is toxic and highly addictive.Nicotine affects the nervous system and heart and can be absorbed into the body through inhalation, ingestion and skin contact.
Excessive exposure to nicotine can result in poisoning, particularly in young children and pets.Liquid contained or used in e-cigarette or vapor devices should not be accessible to children.
E-cigarettes/vapor products are currently unregulated.There is no way to ensure consistency between different manufacturers of the product.Research indicates that e-cigarettes/vapor products may produce variable levels of nicotine and other substances.
E-cigarettes/vapor products emit vapor that contains propylene glycol and tobacco-related contaminants such as formaldehyde and tobacco-specific nitrosamines. The vapor produced by these products is NOT water vapor.
E-cigarettes/vapor products should not be used indoors or in cars. Secondhand vapor contains chemicals that can be inhaled by non-users. Bystanders can inhale nicotine, propylene glycol and tobacco-related contaminants, such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acrolein at some level.
E-cigarettes/vapor products should not be used by or around children. Most e-cigarettes/vapor products contain nicotine.The vapor produced by these e-cigarettes/vapor products also contains nicotine, which is harmful to brain and fetal development.
E-cigarettes/vapor products have not been adequately tested nor approved as tobacco cessation devices. Nicotine replacement therapy products approved by the FDA contain controlled doses of nicotine and have been tested and regulated for safety and effectiveness.
More research is needed on the impact of e-cigarettes/vapor products and how they affect cancer, heart disease, and other long-term health consequences. Caution is advised until further research is conducted on the long-term effects of e-cigarettes/vapor products.

There's something about celebrities and little people, and Joe Jonas got quite the welcome when he arrived at Beacher's Madhouse in Las Vegas on Friday (August 15) to celebrate his 25th birthday.
The "See No More" singer smiled as a pair of little women came up and began grinding on him as he sat on a chair at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino nightclub.
Always eager to connect with their fans, Joe and Kevin Jonas will embark on their newly-announced "Off the Record" tour beginning in June.
And while they usually bring truckloads of musical gear with them to every city, this time the "Burnin Up" rockers won't be playing their hits.
Spending a little time together in brotherly fashion, Nick and Kevin Jonas were seen leaving the Bar Marmont in West Hollywood on Tuesday (February 4).
A mystery woman accompanied the brothers, who made their way out separately, with Joe sporting a sexy slim suit, and Nick wearing a fedora with a dark flannel shirt and skinnies.
Though their band may have broken up, Nick and Joe Jonas proved that family is still very important to them as they took their girlfriends for a Hawaiian vacation on Monday (January 6).
Millions of fans all over the world are still bummed that the Jonas Brothers decided to call it quits, but today (November 27) they have five new reasons to be thankful.
Nick, Joe, and Kevin released five tracks from the album they were working on when they split up, and there's definitely a less-edgy vibe to them all.
After publicly confirming their split last month, the Jonas Brothers still hit the stage (kind of).
Going on their official Facebook page to once again break the news to their fans this morning (November 1), Joe, Kevin and Nick Jonas delivered a heartfelt letter confirming that the Jonas Brothers have officially broken up.
Things with the Jonas Brothers have been pretty unstable as of late, and Joe, Kevin, and Nick dropped by "Good Morning America" to clear things up today (October 30).
The "When You Look Me In The Eyes" rockers admitted that they cancelled their fall tour and subsequently announced their split as a band because things had run their course.

What makes someone wish to burn their own cultural heritage?

They burn, they destroy the dwellings in which he has taken up his abode.
12c., combination of Old Norse brenna "to burn, light," and two originally distinct Old English verbs: bærnan "to kindle" (transitive) and beornan "to be on fire" (intransitive), all from Proto-Germanic *brennan/*branajan (cf. Middle Dutch bernen, Dutch branden, Old High German brinnan, German brennen, Gothic -brannjan "to set on fire"). This perhaps is from PIE *gwher- "to heat, warm" (see warm (adj.)), or from PIE *bhre-n-u, from root *bhreue- "to boil forth, well up" (see brew (v.)). Related: Burned/burnt (see -ed); burning.
Figuratively (of passions, battle, etc.) in Old English. Meaning "cheat, swindle, victimize" is first attested 1650s. In late 18c, slang, burned meant "infected with venereal disease." To burn one's bridges (behind one) "behave so as to destroy any chance of returning to a status quo" (attested by 1892 in Mark Twain), perhaps ultimately is from reckless cavalry raids in the American Civil War. Slavic languages have historically used different and unrelated words for the transitive and intransitive senses of "set fire to"/"be on fire:" cf. Polish palić/gorzeć, Russian žeč'/gorel.
c.1300, "act of burning," from Old English bryne, from the same source as burn (v.). Until mid-16c. the usual spelling was brenne. Meaning "mark made by burning" is from 1520s. Slow burn first attested 1938, in reference to U.S. movie actor Edgar Kennedy (1890-1948), who made it his specialty.

I have a Q&A Form where Users can share there thoughts on small-business.
The Form consists of 10 (optional) Questions.
Here is a sample...
The only data validation I really do is making sure the Answer < 1024 characters. And if there is a problem, then I re-load the Form with the suspect Answers, and display a message like "Answer cannot exceed 1,204 characters. Current is 1,500 characters."
1.) What kinds of Messages should I be displaying?
One person suggested I place a message next to each field regardless of the outcome, e.g.
Is that too much?
2.) Where should I display the messages?
I like the idea that they are immediately below the text Box so they don't mess up the spacing between the Label and Input.
3.) What kind of "workflow" should I have?
In the past, when an action was completed successfully (e.g. Form Updated, Password Re-set, etc), I would re-direct to a new page and display a message like...
"Thank you for your submission!You Profile Answers have been updated."
Do I even need to show people when everything went as planned?
Is it better to display a new "Success Page" or take them back to the Form?
Any other thoughts or ways to improve things would be helpful.
There's no right answer to this, and there's been a lot of discussion about it that I've seen.
One thing to consider is what a non-sighted user will experience. It might be quite confusing if the error message comes after the question and textarea. Another thing to consider is the what happens when the page reloads. A non-sighted user might have to step through headers, menus and all sorts of stuff before getting to any text that says "there was an error". So ideally, the first message they should get on page reload is "there was an error!"
However, from a design point of view, a plain page with just an error heading is a bit ugly, so I guess there's a bit of thinking needed there. Perhaps a hidden message at the top of the page to be read out to non-sighted users? Or the page title?
My current preference is to have a prominent message / heading that indicates there were errors, and then directs people to view the errors (in red) next to (or underneath) each label.
I've also been wondering how feasible it would be to hide the form fields that were filled in correctly. I'm not sure if this has been done before, and there could be some issues with it, I suppose (e.g. the user might want to change some answers that were OK). I guess, in that situation, the correct answers could be closed but available to view (via JS). But then there are more accessibility issues. Sigh!
We need to hear from @Stomme_poes; on this one.
These kinds of updates are really more suited to ajaxy sites where users are not on a traditional form and they are not hitting a submit button. Think how sometimes (usually when there were errors) sites like Facebook, Twitter and StackOverflow have messages like that, often after a problem.
They are too much for any traditional form, because the setup is simpler: users know if they don't hit Submit again, nothing changes. They know if they hit Submit and the page refreshes, something happened. If they get a success message, they know it worked.So yes
Always let people know that the form was successfully filled in! Bringing them back to the form, whether the form is still filled in with their values or not, may allow them to assume it did not submit and they may resubmit.
I am a fan of allowing the back button to take the user back to the form if they wish, but your server will need to use something like the PRG system (POST, Response, GET). This prevents accidental resubmission of the form. Otherwise usually if the user does hit the back button, many browsers will pop up an alert stating the page needs to be resubmitted or some such.
While this is valid (meaning, it matches what many other forms do and so users have experience with this), I prefer what ralph proposed, and having error messages above and outside the form are considered best practice by the likes of WebAIM.
If the page is long and the form is not right near the top, OR if the form is long (your form seems short-to-middle, so I guess this one's up to you), it's most accessible (not only to the blind) to list the errors near the top of the page (as in, a ul) which users can click (if the page is long) to jump directly to the problem input itself. The error message is clear in what was wrong, ideally. Then when the user is at the form itself, the problem input (and label and optional message) are clearly distinct from the correct ones. Colour is one way to make them stand out, but an additional message next to or after or before the problem input can also be nice.All the information, even the bad input, are still filled in (some sites will not send back credit card data or passwords for security reasons if they are sending back via GET so if users must refill these in make this also obvious).
So, on my long long long insurance forms, my setup was so:
The errors should not only be clear but ideally don't tell the user they are wrong and stupid, even if they are. "Oops! Your message is more than 1024 characters. Please shorten your message to 1024 characters or less." Something like that.Those ones are kinda hard and it's nice to have some JS that shows the user how many characters they have in a text area while they type. Meaning listening for an onkeyup event. It's possible to make these accessible to screen reader users (twitter with EasyChirp works, you can hear how many characters you have left after every keystroke) using ARIA attributes.
I am so very very frustrated that Youtube's search is so, so crappy, because I would have LOVED to find the demo someone uploaded of trying to sign up to either a Google Account or specifically Gmail with a screen reader (I think it was JAWS) and not hearing the error messages the form generated next to the inputs. It was such a very good video and I simply cannot find it and wish I had bookmarked it. ARG. Youtube's search is one of the worst I've ever seen... I'm getting Black Eyed Peas videos when I type in search terms with things like screen reader and gmail. Useless.
I hate form errors where you can't immediately see where the error was. I would go for a prominent message at the top of the page asking you to review the highlighted items below.
It should be clear immediately where the error is visually and then next to the input you can give more information. Remember there may be more than one error on submission so make sure they are all prominent.
I would go for something roughly like this.
