Notes / Tips
NOTE: For
EchoLink and other voice modes, we generally suggest that you install special jumper "JP4"
inside the SignaLink USB. This will increase the PTT sensitivity of the
unit and improve operation on low level voice signals. You can also
increase the software "Wave" control (or "Application" control in Windows
Vista and 7) to improve the overall level of the signal and PTT operation.
However, this will likely require you to decrease the SignaLink's "TX" knob to lower the drive to the
radio, and you may find that the TX knob is a little "touchy" to

At the 2016 New Partners for Smart Growth conference, PlaceMatters set up an exhibit demonstrating ways to incorporate pop-up design into community planning and stakeholder engagement. At the front end of the exhibit was a pocket park featuring a geodesic dome made out of umbrellas. I got the idea from photos I had seen of a pop-up event in Rotterdam where students from Dutch Architecture Studios created a dome made of umbrellas and re-assembled it in a few hours on the streets of Rotterdam catalyzing an impromptu party underneath. They called the structure a Bucky Bar, in honor of Buckminster Fuller and his multiple designs of geodesic domes. In one of the write-ups on this event, they gave the structure and associated event the label of unsolicited architecture I like this term as another classification of what we often refer to as tactical urbanism or pop-up up design, referring to the deployment of easy to assemble structures that draw attention and encourage spontaneity, socializing, and conversations about placemaking.
Since the New Partners conference, PlaceMatters did a pop-up demonstration of a protected bike lane and place making activities, May 17th as part of the Live•Ride•Share conference. A self imposed goal of this pop-up demonstration was to be able to set up and take down the demonstration in under 30 minutes, utilizing materials that had been used in prior demonstrations and/or would be reusable in the future with minimal waste and clean-up. The demonstration included contributions from the Ladies Fancywork Society that is famous in the Denver Region for their crochet bombing techniques, adding art and beauty to objects in the area. My favorite crochet bomb they made for us was the flower petals/leaf added to the "B" sign of the nearby B-cycle bikeshare rack. They also decorated the bike racks, trees, and one of the bikes next to the pop-up demonstration.
The Making of the Umbrella Tent
Luckily, I was able to find a Sketchup Design done by Taff Goch that I imported into my own SketchUp model of our exhibit area. Below are some screenshots of the exhibit and the dome design.
As you can see from the photos and the SketchUp model, this partial dome is made out of a combination of octagons, squares, and 7 prong stars, which I confess caused hours of head scratching on how these shapes could come together to form a dome. It helps to realize the pattern cannot be repeated to create a fully enclosed polyhedron. If I did it again, I would probably make a dome out of 5-ribbed and 6-ribbed umbrellas, mimicking the soccer ball design of a truncated icosahedron but with extra hexagons.
One of the challenges I ran into was finding similar umbrellas to what creators at the Dutch Architecture Studios used. It's not hard to find octagon umbrellas but finding heptagon or 14-rib umbrellas that are the right size is another matter. The umbrellas I ended up finding and ordering were shipped from China. And because I ordered them 2 weeks before the event, I realized they would not arrive until after the conference. To be able to build the dome without the 7 or 14 rib umbrellas, I ended up making a 7 prong hub in Sketchup and printing the hub with a 3D printer. I used ¼ oak dowels for the spokes. We then put a white photography umbrella in the hole of the center of the hub. Special thanks to Drew Hastings and Holst Architecture, in Portland, for offering to print the hubs on their new 3D printer.
Here is a panoramic picture of the entire exhibit area.
For a blog entry on all the parklets featured at the conference refer to the following overview put together by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA). In addition to the indoor parklet, PlaceMatters partnered with ALTA Planning in Portland to do a pop-up demonstration of a protected bike lane on Broadway Street, just outside of the Hyatt Hotel where the conference was. Here is a nice blog posted on Bike Portland's website about the demonstration and some of the challenges of doing a demonstration under wet conditions.
Additional notes on building your own umbrella dome
Not sure how long these links will remain valid, but here are links to the materials I found.
- Octagon Umbrellas: Rainstoppers 34-Inch Children's Umbrella – great price and the plastic knobs on the ends are perfect for tying the umbrellas together with pipe cleaner wire.
- 14-rib Umbrellas: ColorDrip Business Style Windproof Automatic Travel Sun-Rain Umbrella – it took a long time to find these since 14 rib umbrellas are rare, and finding the right size is even more rare. Because these ship from China they took more than a month to arrive.
- For the center support pole, I used a 10 foot black pipe from Home Depot with two floor flanges for each end. On the bottom, I screwed the flange into a 12X12X1" piece of oak. On the top, I used bailing wire to attach the flange to the four umbrellas at the top.
Feel free to contact me if you have questions or need further details on materials and construction of the dome.

Lifting solutions and crane rental firm
The Melbourne-based company, the subject of a $240 million takeover bid from private equity group Archer Capital earlier this year, received a query from the Australian Securities Exchange after the stock shot from 41¢ on October 13 to 54.5¢ on Tuesday.
Boom said it expected first-half earnings before interest and tax to be more than 15 per cent higher than the $4.8 million result reported in the corresponding period last year.
It also said the strong recovery in its markets noted in the June quarter had continued into the new financial year and pointed to an increased revenue contribution from its mining and resource maintenance business
The query came just days after Archer and private transport company McAleese cut their holding from 10 per cent to 8 per cent. The motives behind the sales through last week were not clear yesterday but a spokesman for Archer confirmed the bid remained on the table.
The two companies had built up their shareholding at around 30¢. Fund manager Invesco Australia emerged with 5 per cent around the time Archer was selling, joining a register that includes Paradice Investment Management, with 3.46 per cent, Schroders with 7.47 per cent and Westpac with 8.08 per cent. Shares in Boom slipped 2.5¢ to 50¢ yesterday.

AT&T Announces $350 Million Investment to Bring New Technology and Video Competition to Consumers in North Carolina
Raleigh, North Carolina, July 31, 2007
AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) has announced plans to invest approximately $350 million throughout the next several years in fiber network upgrades, further broadband deployment and Internet-based technologies to bring new services, including cutting-edge television, to North Carolina consumers.
"North Carolina has long been a state whose leaders have understood the wisdom of embracing advances in technology," said Cynthia Marshall, president, AT&T North Carolina. "Today, North Carolinians are reaping some of the rewards of that foresight. We commend the General Assembly and Governor Mike Easley for their commitment to ensuring that North Carolina consumers would be among the first in the Southeast to enjoy the benefits of cutting-edge competitive video services."
The announcement is a direct result of the forward-looking approach to the communications and entertainment industry adopted by the General Assembly last year in passing House Bill 2047, the Video Service Competition Act. HB 2047 streamlined the process by which companies could enter the competitive video-services market. Companies now must obtain a state-issued franchise rather than negotiate with individual municipalities, a process that before could take years to complete.
"We look forward to delivering the most advanced technology available in video, voice and Internet services to North Carolina," Marshall said. "Consumers will see a new world of communications and entertainment."
"North Carolinians deserve the benefits of competition," said Rep. Becky Carney, a co-sponsor of the state franchise legislation. "The investment by AT&T shows that eliminating barriers to competition brings choice to consumers and investment to our state."
"There is no doubt that consumers are the big winners today," said Sen. Dan Clodfelter, another co-sponsor. "Land-based video competition will bring better customer service and lower prices. As AT&T's commitment today shows, it also results in new investment in our communities."
According to the Internet Innovation Alliance, increased competition in the video market would result in increased investment across the industry. Competition could also spur new entrants, contractors, equipment-makers, manufacturers and service-providers to create nearly 3,000 jobs in North Carolina.
AT&T's infrastructure and investment will include a new world of communications and entertainment through AT&T U-verseSM service. AT&T is the only national provider to offer a 100 percent IP-based television service, and that makes AT&T U-verse TV one of the most robust and feature-rich services available today.
The planned network investment by AT&T companies in North Carolina does not change AT&T's capital expenditure guidance for 2007 and 2008. AT&T is in the process of implementing the AT&T U-verse network in the Southeast region and plans to provide a comprehensive update later this year.

Sailing to Roatan's Mahogany Bay
If you're lucky enough to be visiting Roatan's Mahogany Bay on your next Western Caribbean cruise, you're in for a treat. This expansive cruise terminal is a gem. Mahogany Bay is complete with retail stores, bars, restaurants, and its own 10-acre private island called Mahogany Beach. Although the Honduran Bay Island of Roatan offers many attractions, cruise passengers might find it hard to tear themselves away from spending their entire day at Mahogany Bay.
Mahogany Bay has space for two cruise ships. The 18-acre waterfront port facility is located in a relatively undeveloped area of Roatan previously known as Dixon Bay, right near the ferry terminal serving the Honduran mainland - just 37 miles away. There is no town right outside the terminal's security gates, so there's nothing to visit within walking distance. Guests need to take a shore excursion, private tour or taxi to visit places like West End Village, West Bay Beach and Coxen Hole.
Designed to be a self-enclosed, stand-alone facility, Mahogany Bay gives cruise passengers the opportunity to take advantage of a wide variety of diversions without ever leaving the complex. Guests exit their ship and enter a large open air welcome center, complete with shopping and bars/dining outlets. A wide variety of duty-free shopping and store options are available here. There's also a craft market for those who would like to purchase souvenirs from Honduras and other parts of Central America, such as wood carvings, pine needle baskets, coffee and Lenca pottery.
From the welcome center, cruisers can choose to head over to the sandy strands of Mahogany Bay's private island. Mahogany Beach features an 825-foot long white sand beach with complimentary beach loungers and mats, a large Food & Beverage Center, tons of watersports activities, a massage area, private cabanas and more. Plenty of opportunities for snorkeling and kayaking are available right off the beach. Those seeking privacy can purchase packages for the Blue Lagoon private beach area or opt for upscale private air-conditioned cabanas. The large cabanas available for rent here are equipped with comfortable furniture, outdoor showers, hammock resting areas, Wi-Fi, and a private beach exclusively reserved for cabana guests.
Getting to Mahogany Beach is definitely half the fun. Cruise passengers can ride the Magic Flying Beach Chair, a ski-type chairlift attraction that takes guests directly from the welcome center to Mahogany Beach. It's an enjoyable ride with excellent opportunities for outstanding ship and beach photos. Guests of all ages who are at least 32 inches tall can purchase an all day pass to access the chairlift. There's also a shaded walking path for those who would prefer to stroll to the beach.
For those who would like to explore the island of Roatan, a wide variety of ship-sponsored shore excursions are available. Roatan is known for its coral reefs, so snorkeling and diving are outstanding here. Adventure seekers will want to try out the zip line and canopy tours, parasailing and four wheel drive excursion options. Nature lovers often enjoy visiting the monkeys at Gumbalimba Park. West Bay Beach (often called Tabyana Beach) is famous for its white sands and turquoise blue waters. Great snorkeling is available right off the beach here.
It's fun to take a tour of Roatan and learn a bit about the lives of those who live on this lovely Honduran Bay Island. Cruise passengers can become familiar with the history of Roatan's Garifuna inhabitants, tour the Carambola Botanical Gardens, or head over to West End Village for a little shopping. While watersports are Roatan's primary draw, there are excursion options to match a variety of interests.
Those who wish to take an independent tour from the Mahogany Bay complex will need to take a short walk out of the security gates and up the entry road. If you have arranged a tour prior to arriving at Mahogany Bay, your independent operator will likely send you instructions beforehand on where to meet. Taxis are also available at the ship terminal and around the island. If you decide to take a taxi, make sure to confirm the per person price before you go and ascertain whether the quoted rate is in Lempiras (Honduran currency) or U.S. dollars.
Popular independent tour options include island tours, trips to Arch's Iguana and Marine Park or another privately-owned wildlife park, visits to the Santé Wellness Center and other day spas, excursions to West Bay Beach and West End Village, offshore fishing or snorkeling, East End jungle safaris, and other activities. It's also possible to arrange voluntourism opportunities in Roatan. See Together for Good (http://www.togetherforgood.org) for more details.
The Mahogany Bay cruise port receives high marks from its guests. If you're interested in visiting this port, check the itineraries of Carnival, Holland America, Princess, Costa, and Seaborn ships. They're likely to call at Mahogany Bay if Roatan is part of the ship's cruise itinerary.

Rome beats Hagerstown to split series
By Jeff Clark / Hagerstown Suns | July 15, 2013 9:15 AM ET
HAGERSTOWN, M.D. - The Hagerstown Suns (15-10, 53-39) couldn't muster much offense Monday as they fell to the Rome Braves (10-14, 46-47) by a score of 3-1. Despite the loss, the Suns still won the overall season series against the Braves four games to three.
With the game tied at 1-1, the Rome took the lead for good in the fifth inning on a solo home run to right-center field by catcher Tyler Tewell, his sixth long ball of the season. Tewell had a strong game for the Braves, going 2-3 with a home run, RBI, and two runs scored.
Hagerstown tallied the first run of the game in the third. Shortstop Stephen Perez drew a lead-off walk, then advanced to second on a groundout by catcher Craig Manuel. Two batters later, 2B Khayyan Norfork dropped a bloop single into right field, bringing home Perez to make it 1-0 Suns.
Rome got the run back in the fourth. Shortstop Jose Peraza started things off with a single, then proceeded to steal second. After advancing to third on a groundout by 2B Eric Garcia, Peraza scored on a single to center field by 1B Edison Sanchez, knotting the game at 1-1, which set them up to take the lead in the fifth inning. The Braves added an insurance run in the ninth inning on an RBI single by RF Felix Marte, making the score 3-1 which would serve as the final.
RHP Mauricio Cabrera (2-5) got the win for Rome. Cabrera pitched six innings, allowing one earned run on three hits and three walks while striking out six. RHP Ian Dickson (0-2) took the loss for Hagerstown. Dickson worked five innings, allowing two earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out three. RHP Shae Simmons picked up his 22nd save of the season by tossing one inning, allowing one hit while striking out two.
After an off day on Tuesday, the Suns will embark on a seven game road trip starting Wednesday in Hickory. LHP Brett Mooneyham (4-2) will take the hill for Hagerstown, making his 11th start of the season. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. The Suns will return home on July 25th where they will open up a four-game series against the Delmarva Shorebirds.

In the NFL, whether it's Week 4, like this week, or Week 14, the pressure is always on.
Sure, you'd rather be undefeated – as six clubs are – or at least have a winning record as the last weekend of September looms.
But all those teams on the downside of the won-loss ledger should remind themselves of the 2007 San Diego Chargers, who began last season at 1-3, won their final six and took an 11-5 record into the playoffs, advancing all the way to the AFC Championship Game.
"It doesn't matter whether you're the favorite now or the least favorite," says quarterback TONY ROMO of the 3-0 Dallas Cowboys. "The reality of it is you've got to keep playing games. You're not trying to be the favorite now, you're trying to be the favorite at the end of the year."

|Swab Barcelona 2013 New Dates: From 3rd To 6th October At The Italian Pavilion In Fira Barcelona
|Swab Barcelona 2013, International Contemporary Art Fair, presents its sixth edition that will be held for the first time from 3 to 6 October, adapting to the international calendar and at the start of the Catalan arts season. Swab Barcelona seeks to initiate and Arts Week, with the collaboration of the Catalan Cultural Institutions, and offering a variety of artistic projects for the visitors of the city.
Swab Barcelona 2013 continues to focus on emerging art, building new audiences with desire to broaden the spectrum of collectors in the city of Barcelona. To this end, Swab Barcelona 2013 creates a new program curated by BAR*, with 10 international galleries with no more than 5 years of existence that pay special attention to research and artistic production, as well as a long-distance collaboration with artists.
Swab Barcelona 2013 will count with a General Programme and MYFAF Programme that will complete the 60 galleries that will participate in 2013 edition. In this new stage of Swab Barcelona and in order to reflect on the present and future, Swab Barcelona expands the Swab Collector programme, focussing on a new generation of collectors and introducing the participation by both curators and directors of art institutions and other cultural agents.
Swab Off, which this year outline the activities conducted in different areas throughout the year 2013, will feature new programmes. "Citizens", a programme for young artists interventions in various public spaces of the city, in an attempt to expand the influence of the Fair beyond the booths and bringing it closer to local and potential audiences of contemporary art, and other programmes that we will announce soon.
Moreover, in this attempt to make the youngest art more accessible in the city of Barcelona, Swab Barcelona continues with Swab Stairs, in collaboration with TMB and the participation of students from design schools of the city. Furthermore, organized by Kognitif, Swab Barcelona will present two painted walls as part of the Ciutat Bella project started in 2011, and a new state wide program organized by Volkswagen.
Swab Barcelona continues to go for its usual awards such as the Best Gallery Award by Banco Sabadell Foundation, the Mangos Young Artist Award and the Drawing Award by Diezy7 Collection, and features a new Award in Photography by Volkswagen, that will give to the MACBA Foundation the winning artwork.
Swab Barcelona will continue to collaborate with other international fairs, in order to be present in other countries and to encourage the exchange of young artists and galleries worldwide.
Swab Barcelona is an initiative of Espacio de Arte Contemporáneo Diezy7, which has the support of the Ajuntament de Barcelona, the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Ministerio de Educación, Cultura y Deporte.
The online application process for galleries wishing to participate in Swab Barcelona 2013 will start on February 4th through www.swab.es/applications

NFL notebook: Ravens safety Elam om Megatron: 'He's pretty old'
Ravens safety Matt Elam has plenty of words to describe wide receiver Calvin Johnson, the main object of focus for Baltimore's defensive backfield Monday night in Detroit.
Those words include "big, fast, athletic, unstoppable, freak."
Curiously, Elam went in another direction when asked how best to cover the 28-year-old Johnson, who has amassed a club-record 9,184 yards receiving and 67 touchdowns in less than seven years.
Elam said, "He's pretty old, so I don't know how physical he'll be. He's a big guy, but he's older."
• Bears coachMarc Trestman is optimistic quarterback Jay Cutler will be ready to return from an ankle injury this week against the Browns. Cutler was to work with the receivers Wednesday, and Trestman said the Bears will know Thursday if he's ready to start. Cutler's missed the past four games with a high left ankle sprain and also sat out one with a groin injury. Veteran Josh McCown has played well in his place, but the Bears repeatedly have said they would go with Cutler once he's ready.
• Some speedy children in Houston received more than $17,000 worth of toys and other Christmas gifts thanks to Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson. A dozen at-risk youngsters had 80 seconds to dash through a toy store and grab what they could — to be paid for by Johnson. His jersey is No. 80. Some of the NFL team's cheerleaders helped the needy children push shopping baskets that quickly filled with holiday treats. The tab topped $17,300.
• As expected, coachJohn Fox has officially ruled out receiver Wes Welker for Denver's game against San Diego on Thursday night because of a concussion.
• Dolphins center Mike Pouncey is sidelined again, but he's expected to play Sunday against New England. The reason for Pouncey missing practice was listed as "non-injury." The team declined to say whether he was absent because of his grand jury subpoena related to the criminal case involving his friend, former Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez.
• Aaron Rodgers took some first-team snaps in practice, though the Packers quarterback still hasn't been cleared to play in a game.
• California safety officials issued more than $50,000 in fines against an elevator company whose employee was killed while working at the new 49ers stadium in Santa Clara.

When Sue George (`88) arrived at the University of New Mexico School of Law in the mid-1980s, she was conflicted. She wanted to pursue both natural resources law and children's law, but knew she couldn't do both.
From an early age, she had spent long hours at a family cabin in the Jemez Mountains, where she developed a love for nature. During college at UNM, she worked at summer camps in New Mexico and Colorado, and after graduation, she worked with wilderness youth-at-risk programs in New Mexico and Texas, and interned as an environmental educator at the Pt. Reyes Bird Observatory in California.
"When I thought about going to law school, I couldn't decide whether to pursue natural resources law or children's law," said George. "The outstanding natural resources faculty, Natural Resources Journal and Natural Resources Certificate settled that question for me fairly early on."
During school, George served as a lead articles editor of the Natural Resources Journal, and upon graduation in 1988, earned a Natural Resources Certificate.
This passion for the natural world has guided her career, and in May 2011, she became director of the new Regulatory Programs and Training Center at the Institute of Public Law (IPL). This new center combines IPL's expertise in administrative rulemaking, civics education and policy development, and in this position, George will expand upon the work she has been pursuing at IPL since joining the staff in 2006.
George began her career in 1988 at Keleher & McLeod, which had just established an environmental law section. She left to pursue a master's degree in biology and was in the middle of her work on that degree in 1995 when she returned to the law and joined the Western Environmental Law Center. Not long afterward, Defenders of Wildlife opened a New Mexico field office, and George jumped at the chance to lead the office, where she worked closely with Ruth Musgrave (`79), director of the Center for Wildlife Law at IPL.
For the next 12 years, she looked at different mechanisms for states to protect the wildlife within their borders. She managed the nonprofit's state wildlife legal program, where she supervised a litigation docket, prepared model laws and reports and tracked wildlife legislation in all 50 states through a clearinghouse. She also taught wildlife law at the UNM School of Law as an adjunct faculty member.
When she arrived at IPL in 2006, George provided legal services to the Center for Wildlife Law, the Government Law Center, the Children's Law Center and the Traffic Safety Center. As director of the new Regulatory Programs and Training Center, she will direct the award-winning Wild Friends Program, a civics and wildlife education program serving grades 4-12 statewide, as well as provide legal counsel and rule-making assistance to various state agencies, including the Department of Transportation and the New Mexico Environment Department.
George looks forward to expanding the Wild Friends program, working with the Utton Center, along with other centers at the UNM School of Law, its students and faculty.
"In this new job, I love that I am able to continue my wildlife law interest and also work with children, both of which were goals when I first entered law school," said George. "I also like working locally and with state government, and making a contribution to New Mexico."
Outside of work, it's no surprise that she enjoys hiking. She also is a longtime yoga practitioner and loves to read. At home in the North Valley of Albuquerque, she has one husband, two children, two dogs and two cats.

Fields of Interest
Molecular biology; structure and function of Class III Metallothioneins; metal ions as regulators in microbial systems; metal ion detoxification mechanisms.
Academic Profile
My research interests have included the biological roles of metal ions such as zinc and iron as well as the mechanisms for protection against the toxic effects of metals such as cadmium and copper, using the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe as a model system for eukaryotic cells. Recent studies have examined mechanisms for protection against copper and cadmium. The properties of metal-binding peptides known as Class III metallothioneins, as well as the conditions for their synthesis, have been the object of several studies.
Work on copper resistance has involved the isolation of a copper-resistant strain of S. pombe, which, unlike S. cerevisiae, does not contain a gene for a Class II metallothionein that accounts for copper resistance in the latter organism. Rather, the resistance trait in S. pombe results from a single recessive chromosomal mutation that appears to affect the properties of the cytoplasmic membrane with the consequence that entry of copper into the cell is inhibited.
Studies involving resistance to cadmium ions have focused on the synthesis of Class III metallothioneins (sometimes called phytochelatins) that have the overall structure [(gammaGlu-Cys)nGly]. These peptides, present in higher plants, occur in S. pombe as well, and their synthesis is stimulated in response to a variety of metal ions, cadmium being the most effective. Peptide synthesis is catalyzed by the constitutive enzyme gammaGlu-Cys dipeptidyl transpeptidase (phytochelatin synthase), that uses glutathione (gammaGlu-Cys-Gly) as an initial substrate. Complexes are formed with metal ions and several peptide molecules, often of heterogeneous lengths, frequently containing inorganic "labile" sulfide as well. Our work has focused on delineation of the stoichiometries and structures of the complexes formed with cadmium and zinc, as well as the conditions required for their formation and their possible biological functions in addition to a likely detoxifying role.

Lenovo celebrates the 20th anniversary of the ThinkPad
Lenovo is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the ThinkPad brand with two new products that are aimed at business users. The ThinkPad X1 Carbon is Lenovo's most recent vision for the ultrabook platform while the ThinkPad Tablet 2 is an x86 based touch-enabled device for Windows 8.
As its name implies, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon makes extensive use of carbon fiber to enhance strength while still providing a lightweight platform for business travelers (it weighs less than three pounds). The machine packs in a 14" display (1600 x 900), third-generation Intel Core processors,
RapidCharge technology
(allows the battery to recover up to 80 percent of its capacity within 35 minutes), glass touchpad, and built-in 3G connectivity.
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon comes with the usual array of ports including two USB ports (only one of which is USB 3.0), a 4-in-1 media reader, and mini DisplayPort.
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon
"Very few brands are fortunate enough to become an industry icon with loyal fans who are passionate about each generation of ThinkPad products," said Peter Hortensius, president, Think Product Group, Lenovo. "With that in mind, we're excited to debut the ThinkPad X1 Carbon, the pinnacle of our ongoing quest to push the boundaries on great design and engineering. It meets the demand for an extremely thin and light laptop with the performance users need to accomplish their professional and business goals."
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon starts at $1,299 and will be available later this month from
The ThinkPad Tablet 2 is built on the tried-and-true formula of a 10.1" screen (1366x768), 10-hour battery life, and a relatively thin profile (0.39" thick). The tablet will be powered by Intel processors (
sorry, ARM
) and will come in Wi-Fi, 3G, and 4G LTE models. The ThinkPad Tablet 2 will also be available with a keyboard dock that features Lenovo's redesigned keyboard layout (for better or worse).
Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2
The ThinkPad Tablet 2 will be available in October to coincide with the launch of Windows 8. Pricing will be revealed at that time.

late May–late November 2012
The latest in an exhibition series celebrating the Armand Hammer Collection gift of drawings, this installation features 36 pages from a sketchbook used by Paul Gauguin (1848–1902) between 1884 and 1888, a period of enormous upheaval and change in his life. Separated from his family, he led a nomadic existence, roaming from Paris and Brittany to Martinique, London, and Arles. Breton Sketchbook No. 16 reveals rapid jottings of the people, places, and things that caught Gauguin's interest during his travels.
Organization: Organized by the National Gallery of Art.
Schedule: National Gallery of Art, Washington, late May–late November, 2012.
Passes: Passes are not required for this exhibition.
The exhibition will be on view in the National Gallery's East Building, Upper Level.

Zech Zinicola (3-3, 7.11 at Columbus) has had much of the same consistency issues that Clippard has experienced. He has shown signs of brilliance only to slip out of control again. On Wednesday, Clippard and Zinicola were pounded for ten earned runs over six innings of work in Columbus' loss at Toledo.
On the upside has been Levale Speigner, who is fighting for another shot with the big league club. Speigner hasn't allowed an earned run in his last 28.2 innings dating back to July 12th when he gave up one run in 1.1 innings of work. Over that span, Speigner has struck out 20 hitters and walked just four and has stranded all 7 of the runners that he's inherited. Thanks to some hard work on his location, Speigner is keeping the ball down in the zone and has been a ground ball machine out of the bullpen.
Offensively, Leonard Davis is doing all he can to increase his slim chances of a September call-up, launching five home runs and driving in 21 runs this month, but his average since August 1 is still only at .259 and his on-base percentage is at just .289 for the month. The Nationals have worked with him to improve his plate discipline, but haven't had much success. Although .259 isn't a great month, it's much better than his first month in Triple-A when he hit just .187 after moving up from Harrisburg. Davis put up strong offensive numbers at both Potomac and Harrisburg this season, but the plate discipline could hold him back a little.
Harrisburg: The Senators will need a huge collapse by Akron to make the playoffs. Akron would need to lose all six of their remaining games while Harrisburgh sweeps all five of theirs. Harrisburg has seen both their offense and pitching struggle in August (.236 average and 4.78 ERA), which has helped to kill their post-season chances.
|Kyle Gunderson has been a nice addition to the Potomac bullpen and could be a pretty good find for a 48th round pick.
Outfielder Dee Brown has quietly had a good season at Potomac, hitting .292 with 8 home runs. His defense - just one error all season - has been stellar. It took Brown some time to get on track this season and he came into June with just a .229 batting average, but has hit .320 over the last three months. Again, plate discipline is a bit of an issue with Brown, but he's shown that he can be a disciplined hitter when he's locked in. His hottest month was July when he hit .351 and had a respectable 14-to-20 walks to strike out ratio to give himself an astounding .467 on-base percentage last month. The problem now is just remembering a little of what he did so he can increase his walk total down the road.
Hagerstown: Even though the Suns are out of the playoff hunt, their series in Lakewood could determine the BlueClaws destiny. Wednesday night's loss by Lakewood moved them to four games behind West Virginia with both teams having five games to play. The Suns and 'Claws play two games in Lakewood before Hagerstown comes home to host Lake County in the final series of the season.
Catcher Sean Rooney is the only Suns player to have anything left at the plate. While Hagerstown is hitting just .222 as a team this month, Rooney is hitting .281 this month, which is actually well off his season average of .316. Obviously, it's tough to play out the string in meaningless games late in August, but Rooney has hung in there.
The pitching hasn't exactly been stellar either, but Osvaldo Rodriguez, who joined the Suns after pitching for the DSL Nationals earlier in the summer has looked good in two starts. The 24 year old right-hander was 12-0, 1.01 in 13 DSL starts and has gone 1-1 with a 0.82 ERA in two starts with Hagerstown. He lost his first game he started even though he allowed just one earned run over six innings, but Hagerstown got shutout. In his last start, he went five shutout innings and struck out seven hitters. In 11 innings, he's struck out 14 hitters. He's old for the South Atlantic League, but could possibly make up for lost time if he starts strong in 2009.
Vermont: The good news here comes from the 2008 Draft. Marcus Jones and Danny Espinosa are both playing well and both could be ready for moves up in 2009. Jones has played in four games and is hitting .333 (5-for-15) while posting a very sturdy .474 on-base percentage thanks to a 3-to-3 walk to strikeout ratio. Espinosa is blasting the New York - Penn League with a .480 (12-for-25) average and has walked an amazing 11 times showing off the plate discipline that attracted the Nationals to him in last June's Draft. When you crunch the numbers, Vermont's shortstop has a .649 on-base percentage.
Gulf Coast League: There's another shortstop making noise in the organization; Esmailyn Gonzalez. Gonzalez - a switch-hitter - is a month away from his 19th birthday and is hitting .350 in the GCL with a hefty .458 average against left-handers. He's also hitting .294 with runners on and two outs and .391 with runners in scoring position.

Published: May 11, 2010 at 2:50 PMWhen should the parks look at $80-$100 to walk in just too much. You could get more people in the door with a lower fee to get in. That would let the people spend more money on the inside to make up for the loss at the gate. I know when i go to the park I spend little to no money because of how much i just spent to get in.
Published: May 12, 2010 at 4:09 AMOrlando Sentinel: "Disney's announcement that companywide profit surged 55 percent during the its fiscal second quarter, as the Burbank, Calif.-based entertainment giant reaped a windfall from its hit 3-D movie Alice in Wonderland. Disney said it earned $953 million during the three months that ended April 3, up from $613 million a year ago. The gain was driven in large part by the company's movie studio, which rebounded from a moribund performance a year ago thanks to the strength of Alice.
No doubt the company's individual units are managed and adjusted based upon their own individual performance. But if the success of 'Alice in Wonderland' has had such a powerful effect on the bottom line, the movie studio certainly makes the company's prospects in 2010 look pretty good. 'Toy Story 3' drops in a month (gonna be huge). And the 'Tron' sequel hits theaters in December.
Stay tuned!
Published: May 12, 2010 at 6:20 AMPeople are waiting for the Fantasyland expansion as it is. It will take exactly that long for people to get over the price bump.
Published: May 12, 2010 at 6:42 AMSo what it means is layoffs ahead for the next 3 years. Alot of people beyond those whom study everything disney, know of the fantasyland expansion and will be holding out till everything is complete with the expansion. We always wait a year for the problems of new construction to be corrected and crowd flow hopefully more manageable. We cancelled our next 2 huge family visits to WDW orlando. $ for $ too expensive. Universal, Six Flags, Sea World all provide value. Disney doesn't. Our TX trip this summer will cost 300. per person. Orlando next summer 550. for Universal. Disney always 1k plus. And what provides the most fun? In our family polling it has been Disney coming in towards the bottom. May be the kids now want Spiderman, Transformers, Potter. And they love the animal aspect of SeaWorld.
Published: May 12, 2010 at 6:44 AMAlso 2011 is the fortieth anniversary (new entertainment) and the opening of Star Tours II (HD and 3D). The parks should still do well enough the summer -- piggy-backing Potter. Universal is still a single day attraction (both parks) -- especially with the Potter attractions drawing people away from USF.
Published: May 12, 2010 at 12:20 PMDon't forget... the parks should have actually been doing fine against foreigners coming in. The Euro was pretty strong against the US dollar-- and theme parks (especially the ones in Florida) really ride on the European visitors coming in and buying every experience possible. Was it enough to make up for the parks doing poorly in the local market? I guess not.
The discounts from all the parks have been AWESOME so far. There's no way they'll stop-- theme parks are a business after all-- and very competitive. But i think theme parks will stop offering AWESOME discounts once the economy bounces up and then it's back to $5 off a ticket price again.
And they'll know the economy is back when I have to wait two hours to get into "It's a Small World"
Published: May 14, 2010 at 11:04 AMI am a life-long Disney fan and my husband and I have been to WDW five times in the past two years. WE either drive from Michigan or fly(especially since we discovered magical express). We also try to take at least two other people with us---kids, relatives, etc.
Published: May 14, 2010 at 11:55 AMIger is saber rattling. The reason they came though the "recession" period so well is that they had high utilization on their resorts because of discounts. If they go to a no discount attitide people will search out the best bargain and their attendance will suffer. Then you will see a whole new series of discounted offers.
I think it is pretty laughable.
Published: May 14, 2010 at 4:44 PMI'll believe it when I see it.
Lots of people report getting both steep discounts on rooms and offers of free dining well into December 2010. Lots of people... not ME, of course, I can't get one of those pin emails to save my life, especially since I'm actually PLANNING on going this fall, but that's beside the point.
I'm not bitter about it... not MUCH!!!

This year's list of honorees:
Harold Bailey, retired administrator
Bailey arrived on campus in 1951 as a new pharmacy faculty member with a doctorate from Purdue University. He left in 1985 as vice president emeritus of academic affairs.
He became the chief academic officer at State in 1961. No one has served longer in that position than Bailey. He carried out his work with such distinction that on his final day Gov. Bill Janklow designated it as Harold S. Bailey Jr. Day in South Dakota.
The respect that he gained from his colleagues is evident in the letters submitted to back his nomination.
James O. Pedersen, former dean of student services whose career largely paralleled that of Bailey's, wrote, "It would be very difficult to identify a non-SDSU alumnus who had made more deserving, enduring and loyal contributions to SDSU and to the Brookings community than Harold Bailey."
Carol Peterson, who began her administrative career as dean of nursing and later took Bailey's position as vice president for academic affairs, called Bailey "a great, kind, ethical and Christian man.
"He was my first boss at SDSU, and I saw those genuine characteristics in him regularly as I worked with him. He was a supportive and understanding boss, and as a new dean he gave me much support, but also much latitude. Dr. Harold Bailey devoted his entire professional career to SDSU. . . .
"He was an even-handed administrator and accomplished his goals without getting angry or difficult and forceful," Peterson said.
In retirement, Bailey continues to live in Brookings and recently wrote a history book on his years at SDSU.
Betty Belkham, Class of 1991 - master's
A life-long educator, Belkham has been superintendent of the 300-student Flandreau Indian School since 2000.
In that role she has helped the school secure $23 million in federal funds to enhance buildings. On the programming side, Belkham researched grant opportunities and within a short period of time the school was awarded $2.3 million to implement new programs for a three-year period.
Belkham was named Outstanding Native American Woman Educator for South Dakota in 2002.
She is known for collaborating with outside entities, including SDSU, as well as securing grants to strengthen the seven-day-a-week boarding school. The school brings in students from tribes throughout the central and western United States, and Belkham is known for meeting the diverse needs of those students.
The former Flandreau Public Middle School teacher is credited for initiating the Flandreau Indian Success Academy partnership with SDSU.
Belkham taught at the middle school from 1978 to 1991. Tammy Renville, a program specialist at Flandreau Indian School, wrote, "She was actually my oldest son's middle school teacher. Her passion for education is as strong now as it was then. Her understanding of the tribal communities and compassion for the students and their families have allowed for positive family involvement.
"Every time I travel with Betty, an elder in the community, a parent, former student or someone working in the field actively seeks her out. She has strong connections in the communities due to the relationships she has developed. . . .
It doesn't matter how many challenges have come up throughout the day, she still smiles and makes positive comments about the day."
Reid Christopherson, Class of 1982
Christopherson, wing executive support officer of the 114th Fighter Wing in Sioux Falls, has nearly 37 years in the Air Force and Air National Guard. But he hasn't let his extensive contributions to country crowd out a commitment to community service.
His name has been associated with a bevy of civic organizations. But most notably, Christopherson, of Garretson, has been involved with Boy Scout activities since the early 1970s and has received virtually every participant and leader award the 101-year-old scouting group offers.
Among his scouting awards: 43-Year Veteran, Lamb Award for service to his church, Silver Antelope for distinguished service on the regional level, Silver Beaver for distinguished service on the council level and two District Awards of Merit for distinguished service on the district level.
Gerry Granum, former district director of the Sioux Council of the Boy Scouts of America, writes, "As an Eagle Scout, Reid has always strived to give back to scouting as a cubmaster, scoutmaster and commissioner" and has spent nearly 20 years on the Sioux Council Executive Board.
He also was president of the Sioux Council from 2006 to 2007 and currently serves as commissioner for the Boy Scouts of America's 13-state Central Region.
Christopherson said, "Serving as an adult volunteer leader within the Boy Scouts of America for the past 36 years is only a very small repayment for the tremendous impact that the program had on me during my years as a youth member."
A sampling of Christopherson's other community service activities include:
• Sioux Falls Regional Airport Authority,
• Sioux Falls Convention and Visitors Bureau,
• Minnehaha County Conservation District,
• National Guard Association of South Dakota,
• Sioux Empire chapter of the American Red Cross and
• Jackrabbit Advocates.
Arlo DeKraai, Class of 1970
A civil engineering graduate from Brookings, DeKraai has become a symbol of industrial success.
During his career, he founded 10 companies and was involved in more than 15 acquisitions and startup divisions. The companies were involved in the design and construction of state-of-the-art manufactured products, most of which support the oil refining business.
In 1994, he founded Integrated Service Company (InServ), a Tulsa, Oklahoma-based downstream oil and gas construction, turnaround, maintenance and turnkey projects company.
As chairman, president and CEO, InServ was transformed into a global leader, working in more than 14 countries with more than $400 million in revenue.
This is the second time for DeKraai to be honored by the SDSU. In 2005, the College of Engineering selected him as a Distinguished Engineer, an honor for which recipients must be approved both by a panel of college faculty as well as a panel of past recipients.
In a 2005 letter, Fred Stiers, general manager of ConocoPhillips, wrote, "Arlo sets high standards and stretch targets like all successful business people do. At the same time, he conveys confidence in his people's ability to reach these goals: never loud or boastful, but rather in his natural manner of quiet, reassuring leadership."
At InServ, DeKraai expanded its ownership to include 18 employees, and its stock rights program enabled an additional 139 employees to participate in the proceeds of the sale of InServ to Willbros Group on Nov. 20, 2007.
That serves as an example of DeKraai's generosity and his desire to share with others, according to business partner Clayton Hughes.
JoAnn (Olson) Goodale, Class of 1959
After working 14 years as a hospital nurse, Goodale took off a couple years to be home with her children, and then returned to the nursing field in a role that made her an expert as a senior rehabilitation nurse for major insurance companies.
Her knowledge of assessment and treatment procedures and discharge planning in trauma cases has gained her the respect of litigators, her employers, and the Illinois Head Injury Association, which gave her a "special friend" award.
SDSU College of Nursing Dean Roberta Olson called Goodale "a leader in the area of rehabilitation of patients who have suffered catastrophic injuries. JoAnn's work at two insurance companies has benefitted patients through accurate assessment of their medical records and making decisions for payment that assisted patients to receive the financial compensation they were entitled to without wasting taxpayer dollars."
Those supporting her Distinguished Alumni nomination include Pekin, Ill., lawyer Charles Thomas.
He wrote, "I am delighted to second your nomination of JoAnn Goodale for the Distinguished Alumni Award. I do this despite the fact that she has always represented my adversaries for many years. My job has always been to make sure injured workers receive adequate, appropriate treatment and compensation. . . .
"Of the hundreds of case managers I have dealt with over the years, I find her approach to and handling of cases better than all the others put together. Her excruciatingly thorough attention to detail, succinctness in reporting and promptness in relaying information is unequaled."
Jeffrey Nelson, Class of 1971
Nelson started work for East River Electric Power Cooperative after he finished his four-year commitment to the U.S. Army in 1975 and has been there ever since, being promoted to general manager in 1990.
In addition to overseeing a wholesale power distribution entity serving 40,000 square miles, he has been a strong supporter of renewable fuels development in the state and played a key role in establishing the South Dakota Value-Added Agricultural Development Center.
Stephanie Herseth Sandlin wrote, "I count myself among the many fortunate individuals who have had the opportunity to work with Jeff Nelson over the years ... Jeff was a valuable resource to me when I served in Congress."
John Thune wrote, "While serving in Congress, I have had the opportunity to work with Jeff … on a host of issues important to South Dakota. Whether it be ensuring his customers receive affordable and quality energy through preference power, expanding the utilization of wind energy, or growing our state's renewable fuels capability through the development of the ethanol industry, I have welcomed his guidance and leadership."
East River Electric is a wholesale power cooperative providing electricity to 24 retail electric cooperatives and one municipal retail electric system, which in turn serve more than 92,000 homes and businesses in 41 eastern South Dakota counties and 22 counties in western Minnesota.
Nelson's civic work includes organizing the Lake County Food Pantry and being a charter member of the East Central South Dakota Habitat for Humanity. In 2009, he received SDSU's Distinguished Engineer Award.
Dustin Oedekoven, Class of 2000
In less than 10 years after receiving his bachelor's degree, Oedekoven earned his doctorate of veterinary medicine and became the state veterinarian.
Oedekoven, who was raised in Sturgis, joined the South Dakota Animal Industry Board in Pierre as a staff veterinarian in 2003, became assistant state veterinarian in 2006 and state veterinarian in 2009. He oversees a staff of seven other veterinarians and is responsible for protecting the health of livestock in South Dakota.
In his nomination, Russ Daly, an associate professor of veterinary and biomedical sciences at SDSU, wrote, "Perhaps no individual is more important in ensuring that South Dakota animals are in a position to be protected from certain diseases than Dr. Oedekoven."
He added, "To the best of my research, Dustin is currently the youngest individual serving as his state's top animal health officer, although he carries out his responsibilities with the skill of someone more veteran. Dustin succeeded an individual with a long, successful history as South Dakota's state veterinarian, Dr. Sam Holland.
"To have successfully filled those shoes is no small feat."
Holland wrote of Oedekoven, "I have known Dustin since his childhood days through his parents with whom we share mutual friends. Dustin stayed at my home while serving as a legislative page in high school. Dustin has always been very positive minded, with charisma and respected by his peers as a secondary student, during his college years at SDSU and professional school at Iowa State."
Walter Wosje, Class of 1962
Wosje, who became a giant in the dairy industry, has served as a strong supporter and spokesman for the recently completed $9.5-million dairy plant expansion. In fact, he will serve as emcee for the Oct. 21 dedication of the plant.
In addition to speaking on behalf of the dairy science program to gain additional industry support for the project, Wosje was among the early dairy science alumni to donate to the project. He also has supported the program via a Jackrabbit Guarantee Scholarship every year since 2005.
Dairy science faculty regularly call on him to give guest lectures, and he serves on a committee for faculty recruitment.
Wosje, a Volga native who returned to the area after semi-retirement, also supported the Pride's trip to Pasadena in 2007.
In 1984, Wosje was hired as chief executive officer of the Michigan Milk Producers and helped make it one of the most financially sound organizations in the country, according to Vikram Mistry, head of the SDSU Dairy Science Department.
He added, "Almost immediately after Walt retired from Michigan Milk Producers in March 2003, he was invited to head up a new organization in the dairy business, which was organized by the National Milk Producers Federation in Arlington, Va. Walt became the chief operating officer of Cooperatives Working Together.
"In this position, Walt has carried out several dairy product export programs and dairy herd retirement programs in an effort to maintain a proper relationship between U.S. milk supply and demand." An economic analysis by the University of Missouri revealed that U. S. dairy farmers received an additional $1 billion annually as a result of those programs.
Wosje retired in 2010. He and his wife, Yvonne, are now full- time residents of Brookings.
The SDSU Alumni Association will be honoring those alumni who have distinguished themselves as leaders in the SDSU community and beyond. Join us to celebrate the legacy and leadership these outstanding distinguished alumni have shown.

This new design saw the motherboard flipped to the other side of the case, meaning the graphics-card cooler expelled hot air upwards, rather than down into the adjacent expansion cards. The processor was moved nearer the front intake fan and the north bridge placed behind it, along with the DIMM sockets. Incompatible with ATX parts, manufacturers were reluctant to embrace BTX until the consumer demand was there, but it failed to materialise. In the meantime, heatsinks grew more efficient, as did processors, diminishing the need for better airflow. Worse still, the rigid guidelines on motherboard layout meant parts with the memory controller on the processor, such as the hugely popular Athlon 64 and more recently, the Core i7, wouldn't fit on a BTX board at all. BTX parts can still be bought, but its shot at the mainstream is long gone.

text: There is a flag or param about resources.. Dedicated, utilized, or both (former being what you say it'll take, latter what it's actually using) NODEAVAILABILITYPOLICY http://www.clusterresources.com/products/maui/docs/a.fparameters.shtml and another around that I think also: This reminds me of a request wrt torque and enforcing resource requirements. Would a future feature be to at least globally, if not per resource (walltime, memory, etc) say that when I say a job has needs 1.4gb of mem and a walltime of 2 days, that the 1.4gb is entirely soft meaning just use it in scheduling (ie, each node has 3gb, so only 2 jobs of this type should go there), but enforce walltime of 2 days (no way on earth our jobs should take more than that, more like 12 hours max). Last we (Garrick) and I talked about this, the code for enforcing these resource 'limits' was only enabled if certain ones were defined. Memory did not enable it, but walltime did. So we currently only specify walltime, but sometimes get hung jobs due to transient issues and would love to set a max walltime of like 12-24 hrs, but if a process w/1.4gb mem setting hits 2.5, let it swap...(but still don't shoot yourself in the foot by knowingly putting 3 x 1.4gb procs on a 3 or 4 proc box) Has this changed since 2.1.2? Any plans? Garrick? Anyone? Thx, -sr Sam Rash srash at yahoo-inc.com 408-349-7312 vertigosr37 -----Original Message----- From: torqueusers-bounces at supercluster.org [mailto:torqueusers-bounces at supercluster.org] On Behalf Of Lippert, Kenneth B. Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2006 11:24 AM To: torqueusers at supercluster.org Subject: [torqueusers] question on memory allocation Quick question: I put memory requirements ala' "-l mem=1gb" in all of my job scripts. When Torque/Maui is deciding where to send the job, does it look at the ACTUAL free physical memory available on the nodes, or does it look at the memory on each node minus the sum of the "mem" values of the jobs already running on that node ? (all the nodes have several np's, from 2 to 8) If my memory estimates were exact it wouldn't matter, but they aren't. I have to estimate a little high, so if the algorithm is the latter, Torque could be thinking a node was "full" when it really wasn't. Looking at the documentation, I am thinking it is the first way, but I want to be sure. Thanks very much. -k _______________________________________________ torqueusers mailing list torqueusers at supercluster.org http://www.supercluster.org/mailman/listinfo/torqueusers

WHITTIER - Santa Fe High School senior Joey Davis, who won back-to-back national championships, might be the best wrestler in area history.
But while some look to his athleticism as the main key to his success, his best trait is one that can't be measured - his heart and determination.
For his efforts, Davis Whittier is Daily News Wrestler of the Year. Davis, who won the award for the second consecutive season, is joined on the All-Area team by Santa Fe teammates Nico Sanchez (103 pounds), Kioni Villalobos (113), Loucian Ponce (132), Daniel Contreras (136) and Dillon Crouch (152); La Habra's Elder Cruz (195) and Jacob Rosales (120); Montebello's Nelson Lucha (160) and Mark Green (heavyweight); California's Adrian Chavez (126); La Mirada's Stephen Hart (145); Schurr's Nicholas Lucero (182) and La Serna's Travis Graham (220).
Santa Fe's Sal Garcia is Area Coach of the Year.
"I think of myself, my season like the movie `Troy,' because Achilles (Brad Pitt) was the best at what he did and everyone knew he was the best," Davis said. "That was my theory to the season to be like (Achilles). It sounds kind of funny, but that's how I went into my season.
"I just wanted to be unstoppable, and doing what I had to do to be the best."
There was no one better.
The 160-pounder missed a chance at being a four-time CIF-Southern Section divisional champion when he lost a controversial preliminary bout. But he proceeded like a champion, following up with a third-place finish before dominating at the Masters and CIF State championships. He then capped the year with a national title at the Flonationals in Philadelphia.
Garcia, who coached Davis since his freshman season, said what separates Davis from the rest is an unmatched work ethic. The senior possessed an unbeatable combination of athletic skill and determination.
"He's a two-time state champ, a two-time national champion," the Santa Fe coach said. "He's just a great wrestler. He seems to do it effortlessly as far as his movement, how he wrestles.
"But it's all because he works so hard. He's a very hard worker and a lot of people don't see that. Behind the doors, during practice time, he puts in the work. That's why he's so great."
It showed on the mat. Davis went 55-1 and breezed through the Masters and state meets. At Masters, he earned most valuable upper weight honor after scoring two wins by fall and three by technical fall en route to the championship.
He dominated in Bakersfield at the state meet, winning his first three matches by fall before scoring a win by technical fall in the quarterfinals. Davis then beat McNair's Jim Wilson, 7-1, before toying with Victor Pereira of Newark to win the final, 12-5.
He set an area milestone, becoming the first local competitor to win back-to-back state titles since Santa Fe's Lyndon Campbell did so in 1986 and '87.
Garcia said he also might be the first Santa Fe wrestler to win back-to-back national titles.
"I think that's my dad's thing," Davis said of those milestones. "I'm not really the record-breaker person. I didn't know about it. But that's my dad telling me, `You know you're the first ...' I didn't even know. I don't really care about that. I just like winning tournaments to get my name out there and let people know that I'm here."
Davis, who has signed to continue his career at Notre Dame College of Ohio, did take pride in winning last year's state title, not so much for him, but coach Garcia.
"I didn't care about being the two-time state champion," Davis said. "But I did care about being my coach's first state champion. That was the thing I really wanted to do.
"There were guys here who were close. But I can say that I was coach Sal's first state champion. That's the biggest thing I wanted to do."
Garcia has arguably been the best coach in the area during his tenure. Under his watch, the Chiefs are 72-6 in dual meets while winning nine league titles and three CIF-SS divisional titles.
Santa Fe was runner-up at the Division 3 dual championships this season and second among teams at the Eastern Division Individual championships. The Chiefs also qualified six wrestlers for the Masters and two for the state meet with Davis being the only area state champion.
"Overall, we thought we had a good season," Garcia said. "We accomplished some goals throughout the season, and we got better each week. That's the main thing, to see these guys improve every week, every month with every tournament. It's exciting when you see that. That's why we coach."
Santa Fe's core was led by Davis, but also included Sanchez, Villalobos, Ponce, Contreras and Crouch. All six qualified for the Masters meet, with Villalobos being one of three in the area to qualify for state. Villalobos and Contreras were also runners-up at the divisional meet.
Cruz was arguably the top area competitor behind Davis. He was ranked in the state top 10 at 195 most of the season. He was the area's lone divisional champion, and finished second at Masters and was sixth at state. Rosales was second at divisionals to qualify for Masters.
Montebello's Lucha, who was second at divisionals, and Green, who was fifth, qualified for Masters.
Lucero was fourth at the Eastern Division finals to qualify for Masters.
Chavez, Hart, Escobar and Graham were league champions to qualify for the divisional meets.
