IRVINE – Sprinklers cascading across the well-groomed yard on Monticello are the only sound at the house with a few lights on and a dog behind the red door that waits for its owners to come back.
Rick and Sharon Crowell, owners of the three-bedroom house, were killed Tuesday morning while walking through their neighborhood when a 17-year-old driver lost control of his car and veered onto the sidewalk, officials said.
Authorities responded to an accident on Eastwood, between Yale and Monticello, just before 7:30 a.m. Rick Crowell was taken with major injuries to a hospital, where he later died, and his wife was found underneath debris at the scene, where she was pronounced dead, Irvine police Lt. Julia Engen said.
The cause of the accident has not been determined, but the driver was cooperative with police investigators and was not arrested or cited, Engen said.
Jim and Arlene Spellmire live three doors from the Crowell home and said that they have known the couple since they moved into the Northwood neighborhood in 1979, when it was first developed.
Arlene Spellmire remembers sitting outside with Sharon watching their children play in the street when they were younger.
"They were real simple, honest, happy, people," she said. "It's such a loss because we've all been here together for so many years."
Arlene Spellmire said she used to walk with the couple, but on the morning of the accident, the Crowells were on their way to the gym, where they had a membership.
Dave Mugavero, owner of Custom Bodies Fitness, which is less than a mile from the Crowell home, said the couple came in most mornings.
"They were some of the first people to walk into the gym – you could set your clock by them," he said. "If it was 10 seconds later, they probably would've avoided (the accident)."
Mugavero said the Crowells were "salt of the earth" kind of people.
"The whole gym community is just devastated," he said. "It's like our heart was ripped out."
Cindy Crowell, Rick Crowell's sister-in-law, said that she had dinner with Rick and Sharon a couple of weeks ago.
"Sharon just kept talking about how much she was enjoying her personal trainer," she said.
Mari Degener lives two doors from the Crowell home and said she has known them since she moved onto the street 13 years ago.
"They were wonderful people. They always said hello every day when you passed by," she said. "They took care of their garden, which is a gift to everyone in the neighborhood."
Rick Curtis, head football coach at Northwood High School, sent a letter stating that Rick Crowell worked with the football team since the high school opened in 1999. His son, Casey, played on the school's first football team.
Curtis said Rick Crowell started assisting the team by recording games but went on to create the team's website and assisted with fundraising events.
"Rick was an amazing friend to me, and needless to say, he was a role model to all of us on how to serve your community," he wrote. "Sharon was always by his side and supported him through his service to NHS. The two of them were inseparable as they would be seen together throughout the community."
He also was the president of Irvine Youth Football in 1996, according to the Orange County Register.
Sharon Crowell worked with some neighbors but mostly stayed at home, Arlene Spellmire said.
Marietta Charbonneau, another Northwood neighbor, hung a memorial banner for the couple at the crash site Wednesday morning, leaving a newspaper article for passers-by to read.
Charbonneau is inviting family, friends and neighbors to remember the couple with prayer at 6:30 p.m. Friday at the crash site on Eastwood.
Rick and Sharon Crowell are survived by their son, Casey, and daughter, Tammy.

After placing a new graph, we might want to go to the plot properties dialog and change the color, label, etc. of the plots we want.
Bzzzt. No go! We can only edit plots that have been added in some other way. (by resizing the plot legend, wiring and running once with data representing several plots, etc.)
For comparison, have a look at the cursor tab. Here we can add and remove cursors at will.
My suggestion is to add the ability to add or remove plots on the plots tab properties page of graphs and charts.
It could look like in the image on the left.
In addition, a removed plot would revert to the system default. It should be possible ro remove all plots, which would simply remove any customization from the plots and a graph would look as if was dropped freshly from the palette.
Why bother wasting time setting the properties of a control on the BD when you can have an initialization subVI do the job and overwrite any modifications done willingly or not in the past?
Well, if you have unlimited time and resources, you can write an initialization subVI every time you place a graph.
In my case I placed a graph and I know I needed three plots: One with points, and two with lines of different color and line width. After placing the graph from the palette, I wanted to immediately setup these three plot properties. This dialog is much faster than constantly clicking on the legend and do one property at a time. I was surprised that I can only modify one default plot and there was no way to add more without first exiting the properties dialog and jumping through some flaming hoops. That should not be necessary.
Non of these ideas mention adding a new plot. They just deal with deleting...
Ooops. Some people lack follow up mentality... and others can't read correctly.
> Ooops. Some people lack follow up mentality... and others can't read correctly.
I have no idea what you are trying to say here. Is this related to the idea discussion in some way?
1) The guy indeed stopped at proposing a "remove plot" button. Logically, he should have proposed an "add plot" button.
2) I should have not extrapolated based on a diagonal sampling of his comment.
I have no idea why this isn't a thing...
I just encountered a case where that feature would have been a bit of a time saver...
Got my vote.

OWINGS MILLS, Md.—The Ravens are making the transition of being a defensive team to one relying on offense to win games. Getting Torrey Smith the ball more often will be crucial to making it work.
Smith is one of the fastest players in the game and is emerging as a big vertical threat this season after six receptions for 127 yards and two touchdowns against New England.
MORE: Torrey Smith shines Sunday night after death of brother
Ravens offensive coordinator Cam Cameron has to become more creative in getting Smith the ball. Instead of using him exclusively on the outside, Cameron could use Smith in motion more so he'll be able to get off the line cleanly.
The Ravens should consider using Smith on shorter routs like hitches and slants so he can turn short-yard receptions into big gainers. Even if he doesn't catch the ball, Smith is a great weapon because he can be used as a decoy with teams forced to honor his speed.
Tight end Dennis Pitta had become Joe Flacco's go-to receiver, but he might need to reconsider. Pitta has decent speed, but Smith is a threat to break one every time he touches the ball.
NOTE: If the Ravens' offensive line keeps progressing, this unit could be very good by the end of the season. Overall, the group is still young with the exception of center Matt Birk. Even with rookie offensive right tackle Kelechi Osemele and third-year left guard Ramon Harewood in the mix, the line has made steady progress. In the Ravens' AFC championship game loss to New England last season, the Patriots dominated the Ravens offensive line. But Sunday night, the Ravens overpowered New England while running the football.

Area cyclists were preparing for a vigil to honor those killed in a two-month wave of fatalities when they got the word:
Add another name to the list.
Just hours before the event, Diane M. Vega, 53, was killed by a sport utility vehicle that ran a red light. She is the sixth to die in an unusually fatal summer for cyclists in the bay area.
Friday night, more than 60 riders gathered in Seminole Heights where a roll call of the dead was read and a robed minister called for a moment of silence.
But anger burned for those who carried stories of their own crashes with cars or countless others tired of drivers who honk and pelt them with bottles.
"Six cyclists in six weeks?" said Ed Collins, whose father was one of the dead. "Right now, hopefully somebody in the city realizes something is wrong here. Capital W-R-O-N-G."
Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio says some accidents are uncontrollable.
"What can government do? A government can't improve the driving habits of every individual who's out there," she said. "Mass transit will take more cars off the road. That is something I've been working on for years, and that is something that I think will have a greater, more positive, effect on the Tampa Bay community than any (road) striping that can be done."
Vega did nothing wrong, police said. She was waiting on the sidewalk at Spruce Street and Himes Avenue for the crosswalk light when an SUV driven by Josefina Rodriguez ran a red light. A car hit the SUV, sent it spinning toward the sidewalk. Vega was thrown into a concrete block house. Police found her bike wedged beneath the SUV.
Rodriguez, 41, previously had a clean Florida driving record but was cited on Friday for running the red light.
She won't face criminal charges because she wasn't showing signs of reckless disregard, police spokeswoman Laura McElroy said. Rodriguez didn't appear impaired, and witnesses said she wasn't driving extremely fast or weaving in traffic.
"By law, running a red light does not rise to the level of reckless disregard," McElroy said.
That upsets Vega's sister, JoAnn Vega, who works for the St. Petersburg Times.
"The saddest thing was my sister was on the sidewalk," she said.
Diane Vega leaves three adult children and a 3-month-old granddaughter. Her family remembers her as a joyous woman who loved foreign movies and the beach.
"Diane was always on the move, trying to do new things and experience life as much as she could," her daughters wrote. "Her wonderful smile could light up a room."
Local law enforcement say it hasn't been a particularly deadly year, but the past two months are unusual. The causes and scenarios vary.
On Sept. 25, Kayoko Ishizuka, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of South Florida, was killed in a hit-and-run on Bruce B. Downs Boulevard. Deputies questioned a man and impounded his red Ford Explorer, but no arrests have been made.
Like Vega, Ishizuka was doing everything right when she was struck. She wore a helmet, had lights on her bike and was in the bike lane, deputies said.
St. Petersburg police are still going through tips and evidence in the Sept. 12 hit-and-run crash that killed Neil Alan Smith, a Crab Shack Restaurant dishwasher.
The day before, New Port Richey resident Stephen Allen Ivey, 52, had ridden onto a two-lane road without stopping, Capt. Jeffrey Harrington said. Ivey struck a car that had the right-of-way. He wasn't wearing a helmet, police said, and was ejected from his bike.
On Sept. 9, Chiles Elementary School art teacher Joe Dyals, 46, died after crossing the path of a minivan.
And on July 29, LeRoy "Roy" Collins Jr., 75, a retired two-star admiral and executive director of the Florida Department of Veterans Affairs, was struck by a sport utility vehicle.
The driver, Margaux Manuel, tried to help him at the scene, but Collins died at the hospital. Manuel, an obstetrics and gynecology resident at the University of South Florida, wasn't cited or charged.
Before the riding vigil Friday night, bicycle advocate Alan Snel told the crowd to take their messages to elected officials. State Rep. Janet Cruz, D-Tampa, said she will do what she can.
"Bicyclists should not be afraid for their lives to ride bikes in this city," she told the crowd.
Then riders boarded their bikes — one with a safety vest that read "I want a safe commute" — and rode off. Their bike lights flashed like candles in the dusk.

Harvesting of soybeans and corn has just begun in South Dakota. Crop plans for next year will soon begin as producers choose hybrids, varieties, and determine crop nutrient inputs. Currently, the climate is trending to be very dry which could influence 2014 crop plans. Fertilizer purchased in the fall typically has been lower priced and therefore more attractive for crop budgets. There are other fall fertilization considerations as well.
The International Plant Nutrition Institute has developed the 4R approach to fertilizer management which is:
- The right fertilizer source.
- Applied at the right rate.
- Applied in the right place.
- Applied at the right time.
(For more information visit the 4R Nutrient Stewardship Portal). Depending on the nutrient to be applied there are several fertilizer sources. Common nitrogen sources are anhydrous ammonia (82-0-0), urea (46-0-0) and UAN (28 or 32-0-0) while MAP (11-52-0), DAP (18-46-0), and 10-34-0 (ammonium poly-phosphate) are the main sources for phosphorus and also contain some nitrogen. The primary potassium source is potash (0-0-60) which contains both potassium and chloride (45% Cl). Other fertilizer sources are available but not commonly used. Dry fertilizers are usually broadcast applied while liquids are generally banded. However, there are exceptions to both depending on the type of equipment used.
Nitrogen applied in the fall could be susceptible to several loss pathways. Losses may come from volitilization of urea containing fertilizers that are surface applied and not incorporated with tillage or rainfall. Nitrogen fertilizer in the nitrate form or converted to nitrate in the soil is susceptible to leaching losses and de-nitrification losses if soils become extremely wet and warm prior to crop uptake. In addition, gaseous loss can occur with anhydrous ammonia applied in extremely dry or very wet soil. Nitrogen probably shouldn't be fall applied as several studies have indicated possible N losses from fall application. In one study at the Southeast Research farm near Beresford from 1990-2006 in a corn/soybean rotation, the late fall urea application yielded 10 bu/a less when compared to the split N application (½ in spring, ½ sidedress). If fall N applications are used, apply after soil temperatures fall below 50° F. In addition, urea fertilizers should not be surface applied without incorporation and fall applications of nitrate containing fertilizers (UAN) are not recommended. Avoid fall applications of N fertilizers on coarse textured soils or soils prone to spring flooding.
Applications of phosphorus, potassium, zinc and other non-mobile nutrients in the fall can be a good practice. If soil tests are low, planter starter band applications of these nutrients can provide good early plant growth, with the remainder of the recommended nutrients applied as broadcast applications. If soil tests are medium or higher, much if not all of the phosphorus can be applied as a starter seed band or broadcast. If fertilizer is applied with strip till, these bands should be at least 2 to 3 inches below the planting depth as the high concentrations of fertilizer salts can decrease germination. Therefore strip bands do not work well as a starter because of the deeper application depth.
Finally, determining the right nutrient and the right nutrient rate should be determined by a soil test and choosing a representable yield goal. For more information and determining a recommended nutrient rate see the SDSU Extension Fertilizer Recommendation guide.

LEXINGTON, Ky., - Anthony Dixon has talked all season about carrying his team to victory.
Saturday night the 6-foot-1, 235-pound senior did just that breaking the single-game school rushing record with 252 yards and two touchdowns in Mississippi State's 31-24 win over Kentucky.
"I was just out there trying to grind for my team tonight," Dixon said. "I am really trying to get to a bowl game. That was the thing that is on the top of the list for goals this year. With this win, we are inching closer to that and for that reason I am happy. I was telling people I want to get as many yards as it takes to get a 'W' and it just so happens that's what I got tonight."
Dixon surpassed Jerious Norwood's single-game mark of 247 set against Houston in 2005. Dixon was the Bulldogs workhorse carrying 33 times taking up the slack for knee injuries to senior backs Christian Ducre and Arnil Stallworth during the contest.
"(Dixon) had an unbelievable game," said MSU head coach Dan Mullen. "He set the school record, 252 yards and we needed every single one of them. He really came up big when Stallworth was down with the injury and kept getting dinged up. Ducre was getting a little more hurt also. But when those two went down we were kind of limited and we've built so much up on those senior tailbacks. Anthony really stepped up and make a bunch of plays."
Dixon also did not a have a negative rush of his 33 attempts.
MSU finished the evening with 493 yards of offense with 348 yards on the ground and another 145 via the air.
"We came in and fell behind in the first half but kept telling our guys to keep battling; good things are going to happen to you," Mullen said. "They continued to battle, they continued to fight and in the end of the day they came out on top. I think it was a real big step for this team."
Tyson Lee bounced back from two first half interceptions to finish the game completing 10-of-17 passing for 145 yards and one touchdown.
"Tyson did a great job," Mullen said. "He's given us everything he has. He continues to battle and try to improve himself. I know he gets frustrated at times but the key is for him not to get frustrated and to want to learn and for us to continue to coach him."
O'Neal Wilder was the recipient of Lee's 67-yard touchdown and ended the evening with two catches for 72 yards and the lone score.
Mississippi State took advantage of the first turnover of the game and quickly cashed it into points. Morgan Newton's lateral to Randall Cobb was fumbled and recovered by Chris White at the MSU 37-yard line midway through the first quarter.
The Bulldogs took over from there and reached field goal range on a 37-yard run by Dixon. The drive stalled but Derek DePasquale came on to boot a 33-yard field goal for the first points of the game.
Kentucky answered right back on the ensuing drive. The Wildcats marched 59-yards in seven plays capped off by a 10-yard touchdown scamper by Derrick Locke. Lones Seiber kicked the extra point putting Kentucky ahead 7-3 with 1:23 remaining in the opening quarter.
State marched their next possession down to the 2-yard line and went for it on fourth down but Lee was intercepted in the end zone by Sam Maxwell to start the second quarter and keep the score intact.
Lee tossed his second interception of the evening on the Bulldogs next possession to Randall Burden. But this time the Wildcats were able to capitalize on the turnover orchestrating an eight-play, 41-yard drive that was extended when Pernell McPhee was called for offsides on a third down stop. Newton finished things off on a 11-yard keeper. Seiber booted the PAT building the lead to 14-3.
Mississippi State answered with a scoring drive of their own. Chris Relf was inserted in at quarterback and broke loose on a 52-yard jaunt that set up a 1-yard plunge over the top by Dixon. DePasquale's extra point pulled the Bulldogs within 14-10 with 3:43 remaining before the half.
Kentucky would extend their advantage before the first half expired. Cobb tore off a 47-yard punt return that set up a 38-yard field goal by Seiber giving the Wildcats a 17-10 lead heading into the locker room.
MSU caught a break on the first drive of the second half when Charles Mitchell jarred the ball away from Alfonso Smith into the awaiting arms of Jamar Chaney at midfield.
The Bulldogs cashed the mistake into seven points going to the ground seven straight times and scoring when Ducre plowed in from 2-yards out. DePasquale's PAT tied things up with 11:48 in the third quarter.
Kentucky responded right back on their next possession moving the chains five times en route to a eight-play, 65-yard drive resulting in a 3-yard quarterback draw by Cobb. Seiber kicked the extra point putting the Wildcats back up by a touchdown.
It did not take long for State to strike back. On the second play of the ensuing possession, Lee faked the option to Dixon, dropped back and fired a 67-yard bomb to a streaking Wilder for the score.
"O'Neal got behind him and Tyson didn't lose his confidence," Mullen said. "He delivered the ball and I think it was a huge play in the game. The score was going back and forth and that gave us some momentum."
DePasquale booted the extra point nodding things back up.
The Bulldogs regained the lead on their most impressive drive of the night. Mississippi State went 87-yards in only eight plays. Dixon churned out a 47-yard jaunt followed later by a key 28-yard third down conversion to set up a 3-yard Dixon score. DePasquale booted the point after giving State a 31-24 advantage to close out the third quarter.
Kentucky came back with a long drive of their own getting down to the 4-yard line before Chaney picked off Newton preserving the Bulldogs lead which would stand for the remainder of the game.
"I didn't see it until the last minute but I know McPhee got pressure," Chaney said. "He was probably trying to throw it out of bounds but by McPhee getting pressure on him he didn't get it all the way out of bounds. Thank you Jesus, I just looked up and the ball was right there in my hands."
The Wildcats (4-4, 1-4) managed 308 yards on offense with 189 yards rushing and another 119 yards passing.
"It's extremely disappointing," said UK head coach Rich Brooks. "You have to give Mississippi State credit, they outcoached us and they outplayed us. We were in position at halftime to take care of business then immediately turn it over and allow them to go right through us. I'm not sure I remember a team running a ball as effectively on us the way they did and most of it was between the tackles. You've got to give them a lot of credit. They came in here and did what they had to do and we didn't do what we had to do."
Cobb accounted for 237 all-purpose yards and one touchdown. He had 188 return yards, two catches for 32 yards and 17 additional yards and a score on the ground.
"They beat us across the board, every aspect of the game," Cobb said. "We didn't do anything right. We did run our plan coming into the game. We didn't run the plays we wanted to run. They put a lot of stress on us offensively. We couldn't move the ball when we wanted to. It was just tough for us."
Newton connected on 11-of-18 passing for 119 yards, no touchdowns and one interception.
Locke was Kentucky's leading rusher with 103 yards on 17 carries and one touchdown.
Chaney led the Bulldogs defensively with 15 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, 0.5 sack, one interception and one fumble recovery. K.J. Wright also made double-digit stops with 10 including one for loss while White and Marcus Washington finished with eight tackles each.
Devin Jones was credited with 1.5 sacks while Kyle Love also recorded a quarterback takedown.
Micah Johnson played through injury to lead Kentucky with 11 tackles followed by Maxwell, Calvin Harrison and Danny Trevathan with eight stops apiece.
The win was the third consecutive road victory for the Bulldogs, who improve to 4-5 on the year and 2-3 within the Southeastern Conference. MSU will enjoy a bye week before hosting Alabama on Nov. 14.
"It has been a big thing for us this season to just come out and play ball and build on what he have been doing," said MSU center J.C. Brignone. "The things that we did in the offseason and in the summer, we took all of that and used it to play in games. We have played a lot of close games that came down to the wire and we couldn't finish so we knew coming into this game that we had to win if we wanted a chance at a bowl game and how we wanted things to work out for us. A win like that, coming out and shoving the ball down their throat and doing what we have been doing is great."

Senior Weston Painter, left knee wrapped as it had been for the last several weeks as the lineman battled injury, was still standing on the sideline rooting for his teammates.
And Coach Kurt Tippmann, leader of the Panthers, was still coaching his players as if the game was on the line.
The 39-14 loss to Lawrence Central may have ended Snider's perfect season, but it did not affect how the Panthers played to the end.
"We weren't worried about our guys quitting," Tippmann said. "It is a great senior class and they will go down in history in the Snider program as one of the great ones. We just didn't get the final game done."
The over 30 Snider seniors end their high school careers with four sectional crowns, a pair of regional championships and a semistate title.
And do not forget an SAC championship.
"(Our seniors) won quite a few championships and we are proud of them," Tippmann said.
Instead of falling flat when the times were tough, this Snider team seemed to rise to the occasion throughout the season. When Painter left the sectional championship game against North Side, the remaining linemen elevated their game to offset the loss.
Everyone knows about the monumental comeback against Fishers, in which maximum efforts across the board, not just from the upperclassmen, helped the Panthers pull off a miracle comeback.
So to expect this Snider team to just roll over when the game was out of reach on Saturday was out of the question.
"High school kids rotate in and rotate out and our hope is that every group that comes in here has a chance to win championships," Tippmann said. "This group, especially the senior group, embraced everything we talked about how we want the program to develop. They are the essence of working hard for something and caring about something other than themselves."
Those qualities will carry on with the Snider seniors and reverberate throughout Panthers Nation long after the memories of the state title game defeat fade away.

By the time the astonishingly heavy bassline of DJ Rashad & DJ Manny's "R House" drops on this extraordinary EP, there's no more doubt that footwork is the most fascinating thing to emerge from the US underground since Chicago's club scene gave us house — and it's not just in the house influence that the tracks collected here proudly display. UK label Planet Mu has been championing the Chicago-centric bass sound of juke and footwork for some time now, releasing the essential Bangs & Works Volume 1 compilation (with a second volume forthcoming), as well as EPs and albums by critical producers — DJ Rashad, DJ Diamond, DJ Nate, DJ Roc — in this frenetic scene.
Mike Paradinas (μ-Ziq) and his Planet Mu label have already introduced us to the work of some of the producers that make up the DJ collective Ghettoteknitianz (a.k.a. Ghetto Teknitionz), with DJ Rashad, DJ Spinn, and Traxman all having been showcased on the Bangs & Works compilation. But Ghettoteknitianz is the first collection that shows the clique at work together, with collaborations or solo efforts from Gant-Man, DJ Earl, and DJ Manny. The EP is filled with glorious old-school strings and hands-in-the-air vocal lines that channel the high-flying vibe of original Chicago house, producing a lighter, more expansive sound, in particular contrast to the claustrophobic vibe that permeates other Planet Mu footwork releases.
William Gibson's prescient words, "The street finds its own uses for things" (from the 1982 short story Burning Chrome), seem eerily appropriate in assessing footwork as a style of music. Radically deconstructing the tropes of dancefloor music, recontextualizing half-remembered classics, smothering soaring vocals under pulsing basslines, the Ghetto Teknitionz clique deliver six tracks of genuinely futuristic dance music here. In the crazed acid squiggle of DJ Spinn's "Don't Shoot" or DJ Manny's epileptic weed anthem "All I Do Is (Smoke Trees)," there's no concession to pop sensibilities: vocal samples spiral out of time, out of control; the characteristically frenetic boom of the beat acts less as a rhythmic anchor than as a mechanism of alienation. Even the tremendous, ecstatic references to classic Chicago tunes of the 1980s, in both DJ Rashad & Gant-Man's "Heaven Sent" and the previously mentioned "R House," seem to project the past forward into a concrete-and-steel future of footwork battles and DJ wars.
It's true that this particular strain of Chicago sound has been bubbling up in some form or another since the late 90s, as Chicago house, ghetto house, juke house, juke, and now footwork. However, there's something truly raw about the footwork sound, in the lo-fi production and swampy mastering, in the total resistance to compromise. I sincerely doubt anyone but the most adventurous pop diva will be lining up for their 'footwork remix' once they're done and dusted with a midrange-melting, Diplo-helmed dubstepping.
As the footwork sound permeates further into global music cultures and criticism (a wonderful thing, I should add), it's reasonable to expect that it will receive the same kind of crate-digging analysis that dubstep has seen, dwelling on roots and antecedents. Unlike dubstep, however, footwork seems unlikely to break and mutate under that pressure; its composition is too sparse, its source material already warped beyond casual recognition. Particularly in the form captured on Ghettoteknitianz, footwork is completely uncompromising, folding its own genealogy so deeply into itself that the casual listener — divorced from the sound's urban Chicago heart — is entangled in it, too. The question for footwork is: where the hell does it go from here?

Corporan getting best from pitchers and his bat
LAKELAND, Fla. -- Offensive production is a bonus for backup catcher Carlos Corporan, who's more concerned about getting the best out of his pitchers. Corporan contributed on both ends on Thursday, hitting a pair of long homers in Houston's 7-2 win over Detroit at Joker Marchant Stadium.
The switch-hitting Corporan, who had only one career Major League at-bat in eight years of professional ball when the Astros signed him to a Minor League deal in 2010, is hitting .370 this spring, with two homers and seven RBIs.
"I'm putting good swings on balls and trying to put the ball in play," Corporan said. "Thankfully, I had some good pitches and put some nice swings on them. That's the balance for me; I want to take care of my pitching staff like I did today. We [were facing] a pretty good lineup, one of the best lineups in the game. We showed them what we got. That's when I'm happy, to see my pitching staff working like that."
Corporan hit a tape-measure homer to right in the fifth against Justin Verlander and added a long homer to right in the seventh against hard-throwing reliever Al Alburquerque. He singled in his final at-bat to finish 3-for-4.
"You can mature in the game, and you get to know your swing and you learn," he said. "You can learn what the pitcher is trying to do. My swing has always been there, and now I have more experience and figured out what they're trying to do to me. I feel more mature."
The Astros have clubbed 39 homers in 25 games this spring, and Corporan believes the power surge will pay dividends in the regular season.
"We don't have a good team on paper, but on talent, I think, we have a really, really good team," he said. "We have a lot of people who can change the game with one swing. That's going to be my goal this year, trying to keep it to two or three runs per game, and I know someone is going to turn on one. That's the big difference between this year and last year."

Externships / Internships
Externships / Internships
The Turkey Summer Law Program works with participating students to enable contacts with Turkish law firms and organizations looking for American law students for summer internships. Whether the student has already arranged an internship from the United States, or will be looking for the internship in during the program, the faculty and staff are more than willing to help. While there is no guarantee in finding an internship, the program has thus far been able to help place every student who has sought a position. Past internships have been both with law firms and with non-profit organizations.
Charles Sibert, 2014: "I had an incredible experience this past summer in Istanbul, Turkey. I enjoyed learning about the Turkish legal system and its nuances at Yeditepe University. The professors not only opened my eyes to a foreign legal system, but allowed me to better understand the law in the United States.
I highly recommend anyone interested in studying abroad during law school to stay and intern after the program. My internship was at the firm Yurttutan Gürel Yörrüker. At the firm, I drafted memoranda identifying and analyzing key provisions of contracts between Turkish and foreign corporations to help the partner advise the clients. I gained a deeper understanding of international business contracts through my experience. Lastly, I encourage anyone who wishes to form a better connection with the city to intern at a firm because you will make friends and through them you will gain a deeper understanding and connection with the city."
Jeanette Bayoumi, 2013: "The professors at Yeditepe University were excellent and very engaging, and they have a new, refreshing outlook on law and legal issues of the region. What I found most intriguing about Turkey was its geographical location and how that affected its legal structure in general. There was a mixture of European and Middle Eastern politics influencing the legal system.
Additionally, I had the opportunity to intern for five weeks at ELIG law firm. Doing so was a unique experience. I suggest that those who do the program try an internship opportunity at a law firm in Turkey. ELIG specialized in corporate and competition law, and as a result I was exposed to a lot of European Union legislation. I was tasked with writing a few comparative analyses based on antitrust law compliance programs in the United States, European Union, and Turkey. I learned a lot working for the firm, and I had the opportunity to meet both Turkish-educated and American-educated lawyers working in Istanbul. It was a great chance for me to experience life working abroad and in a foreign country, specifically looking into laws and legislation outside the US territory."
Iten Naguib, U. Maryland, 2013: "I absolutely loved my internship. I worked on a very interesting international arbitration case where I saw many familiar terms/concepts -- ICSID, BIT, MFN, etc. from the program -- which is very exciting to me, as an experiential learner, to have gained practical experience built upon the theoretical concepts from class."
Nor Powanda, 2013: "I enjoyed the study abroad program in Turkey very much. It was educational, experiential and an opportunity to explore and exploit global career prospects. I learned from some of the best both in academia and practice in Turkey. I particularly enjoyed the internship I undertook immediately after the program with a law firm in the heart of Istanbul. My monthlong experience there not only supplemented most of what I had learned during the program, it gave me great discussion points for externship and job interviews here at home. More importantly, I gained valuable and marketable skills through the program and the work experience. Turkey is a fascinating place to study and work and the experience adds weight to your resume."
Melissa Merlo, 2013: "I feel very fortunate to have studied last summer in Turkey. The legal issues discussed in my courses and I worked on during my internship at a commercial boutique law firm based in Istanbul will benefit me in my international practice. I also appreciated the opportunity the program offers to immerse yourself in the culture and to enjoy the many beautiful sights Turkey beholds. I would wholeheartedly recommend this study abroad program for students who wish to learn and increase their knowledge of the law while also developing the skills needed to succeed in practicing abroad."

The Muscle Brake was designed to be extremely shooter friendly. With the first port being 90 degrees it shears the back blast off from the angled ports, to prevent the "blast/concussion" effect from distracting the shooter. These brake are made of 416SS, and hardened to 30 Rockwell. Benefits to the Muscle brake are increased recoil reduction, no back blast to the shooter as compared to typical angle port and radial port brakes, and the brake to barrel joint can be tapered and blended for a seamless appearance.

PORT HUENEME, CA--(Marketwire - January 22, 2013) -
Stellar has developed a controlled, land-based aquaculture system that supports the life cycle of the mollusk through all its stages and now, for the first time, boasts multiple generations producing commercial quantities of pharmaceutical grade KLH.
Stellar is the only company that can offer KLH obtained from sources and processes that are traceable, controlled, and sustainable. Other KLH suppliers are reliant on the small and sensitive, wild populations of Megathura crenulata and cannot offer KLH that meets Stellar Biotechnologies standards.
"This isn't just about increasing Stellar's KLH manufacturing leadership -- which we've clearly done," said Frank Oakes, Stellar President and CEO. "This is about controlling the lifecycle of the source animal, allowing Stellar to grow new generations of limpets spawned by parents that have never seen the ocean, thus ensuring that the pharmaceutical industry has ample supply of GMP grade KLH, made under controlled conditions, while protecting survival of a wild species."
Brandon Lincucum, Stellar Aquaculture Manager, said, "This is the culmination of more than ten years of highly-specialized development work involving a range of disciplines. We've set the benchmark for KLH manufacturing and we're proud to represent these new aquaculture and environmental milestones as well."

About Stellar Biotechnologies, Inc.
Stellar Biotechnologies, Inc. (OTCQB: SBOTF) (TSX VENTURE: KLH) is the world leader in sustainable manufacture of Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH). KLH is an important immune-stimulating protein used in wide-ranging therapeutic and diagnostic markets. Potent, yet proven safe in humans, KLH operates as both a vital component for conjugate vaccines (targeting cancer, autoimmune, and infectious diseases) as well as an antigen for measuring immune status. Stellar Biotechnologies was founded to address the growing demand for renewable, commercial-scale supplies of high-quality, GMP-grade KLH. Stellar has developed leading practices, facilities and proprietary capabilities to address this need.

Giants statement on passing of Victor Torres
SAN FRANCISCO, CA - Victor Torres, a hitting coach and instructor within the Giants Player Development department for the last six years, passed away Wednesday in Florida. He was 61 years old.
"The San Francisco Giants are deeply saddened by the passing of our former minor league coach, Victor Torres," said Senior Vice President and General Manager, Brian Sabean. "Victor was a tremendous person who proved to be a great asset to the organization with his ability to communicate and mentor our young hitters. He will be deeply missed and our condolences go out to the Torres family for their tremendous loss."
Torres most recently served as the hitting coach for the Arizona Giants in 2012, a position he held for five seasons beginning in 2007. He also had a one year stint with double-A Connecticut during the 2008 campaign. Torres had worked in professional baseball since 1994 and previously ran his own baseball academy in Puerto Rico and Florida from 1973-1989.

A wind and dust storm that hit the Bakersfield, Calif., region May 5 took a bite out of Kern County's stone fruit and nut crops.
High winds spread through parts of the state in the first week of the month.
"We had a lot of fruit drop in cherries, peaches and plums, and a lot of almond trees were uprooted and blown over," said Glenn Fankhauser, deputy director for the Kern County Department of Agriculture and Measurement Standards. "Citrus was just broken limbs. There was not much damage in citrus or grapes."
Estimates are ongoing, but the crop loss in one variety of cherries — rainiers — was 40% to 50%, Fankhauser said. In addition to the fruit drop all cherries suffered, the rainiers were hard hit by cosmetic issues, enough to make a chunk of the surviving crop unmarketable.
"That's a blush or cream-colored variety," he said. "Fruit that didn't fall off the tree as a result of the wind may have been scarred. The blemishes won't be covered up as a dark variety might."
Rainiers, tulares and brooks each account for about a third of Kern County's $227 million cherry crop. The winds were soon followed by rains, raising concerns that cherries might start splitting.
Peaches and plums were each valued at about $11.5 million in 2011, but substantially higher in other years.
The scope of the almond damage was unclear. One grower reported a loss of 1,500 trees to the county, but not every orchard was hit by the storm.
"There's been some wind damage, but the consensus is a lot of those almonds would have fallen anyway because of a normal drop," said Bob Curtis, associate director of agricultural affairs for the Modesto-based Almond Board of California.
"Areas of the county had no problem with the wind," Fankhauser said. "It was localized."

But here is one thing that puzzles me: a teaching is supposed to be Buddhist if it contains the Three (or Four) Dharma Seals. However, none of these Dharma Seals talks about karma and rebirth!
What about the dharma seal that mentions nirvana though? What is nirvana? A state of freedom from karma and affliction. So I would argue it is there, even if the exact word does not appear.

BUSINESSES on a Blackburn industrial estate have been evacuated after a fire broke out early this morning.
Fire fighters were called to Presspart Manufacturing Ltd just before 6am to deal with a fire involving acetylene cylinders.
The fire has been extinguished but the cylinders are potentially highly explosive, so fire fighters will remain on the scene for the rest of the morning, and possibily the afternoon, ensuring the cylinders are fully cooling.
A second business, First 4 Print Finishing Ltd, has also been evacuated, and a 100m exclusion zone has been set up around Philips Road and Cunliffe Close.
Acetylene is an industrial gas used for metal cutting and welding.

Hey man.....been a long time
I didn't get to it, files had to be converted, then I got stuck into some other stuff so......maybe next weekend lol
I'm watching it today. Will get back to you. Also, finally starting The Shield too this weekend.
Oh yeah. Yip, now I remember seeing a Ricky Gervais post about that. It all goes on Netflix worldwide right after it's finished up on tv over here, or something. Which is tonight, actually.
Man, we're only 4 episodes in to the second season of Hannibal. I'm excited now. It still amazes me how some of this is shown on a prime time American Network Channel slot.
What about Fargo? Is that finished for you too? It's been brilliant. Just finished the episode where multiple people die, and Martin Freeman manages to get out of hospital to set up his brother, and get back in, in a day. Great stuff.
Apey! Derek season 2? Caught any of it? I like it more than the first, AND they removed Karl first episode. Thoughts?
He snorted. He rambled. But it was good
The Paul Bearer one was touching
I'm streaming it\
You watching HOF?
You got in I see

Stapleford Abbotts is a village and civil parish in the Epping Forest district of Essex, approximately 9 km (5.6 mi) SW of Ongar, 7 km (4.3 mi) N of Romford and 8 km (5.0 mi) SSE of Epping. The whole parish is within the M25 motorway or outer ring road of London. The village covers 957 hectares and had a population of 959 in 2001.
The parish was part of the Ongar Rural District from 1894 until 1955, the Epping and Ongar Rural District from 1955 to 1974, and since 1974 it has been located in the Epping Forest District of Essex.
The parish is mostly rural and agricultural with a scattering of farms and cottages. The northern boundary of the parish is formed by the River Roding and the remainder of the parish is crossed by a number of streams that feed into it or form the headwater of the River Rom. As a result of geology the terrain is hilly and 28–90m above sea level with most development at between 35m and 80m.
The village itself consists of a straggle of mostly 20th-century housing stretching for about a mile along the elevated Romford to Ongar road from the boundary with Havering-Atte-Bower. The medieval church (largely rebuilt in the 19th century) is situated in a relatively isolated position a further mile away from what is now the village, reflecting the fact that there was no single nucleus of settlement until the 20th century.
Aside from the village of Stapleford Abbotts the parish includes the hamlets of Bournebridge, Nuper's Hatch and a small part of Passingford Bridge.

45 Years Ago: The Doors' 'Waiting for the Sun' Album Released
Following up a classic debut album as well as a stunning sophomore effort is no easy task. Just ask the Doors. Their self-titled first album from 1967 was still riding high when the follow-up LP, 'Strange Days,' hit shelves at the end of the year. Things were moving quickly for the Los Angeles quartet. As 1968 approached, the band marched forward to work on their third album.
Recording started that winter, and things came together quickly. The first song released from the sessions, 'Hello, I Love You,' hit the charts the first week of July and went straight to No.1. The album, 'Waiting for the Sun,' was released on July 11, 1968, and would scale to the top of the album chart a month later and sit there for four weeks.
It kicks off with 'Hello, I Love You,' which was written in 1965 around the same time as 'People Are Strange' and 'Moonlight Drive.' Some people have noted the song's similarity to the Kinks' 'All Day and All of the Night,' and in 1981 keyboardist Ray Manzarek admitted to Musician magazine that it was "a lot like a Kinks song": "It's all rock 'n' roll, we're all family, we're not stealing anything from them, we're sort of …Yes, it is a lot like it, isn't it? Sorry, Ray." The Kinks didn't sue the Doors, but an agreement was later reached so that a portion of the single's sales in the U.K. would go to Ray Davies.
'Love Street"s lazy shuffle captures the air of summertime, 'Not to Touch the Earth' takes things into a more ominous and eerie place, somewhat recalling the songs on 'Strange Days,' and 'The Unknown Soldier' is filled with unfiltered Jim Morrison drama. In spite of its epic appearance, the song is more like a miniseries than a big-screen production, with drama and tension ringing loudly over the singer's shouts of "the war is over." "Wait until the war is over and we're both a little older / Breakfast where the news is read, television children fed / Unborn living, living dead, bullet strikes the helmet's head," Morrison sings.
'Spanish Caravan' is an elegant tour de force for guitarist Robbie Krieger as he crawls out of a flamenco-style riff, blending acoustic and electric instruments. Meanwhile, 'My Wild Love"s tribal mood, pounding minimalist rhythm and gospel-like vibe make for one of the album's most distinct tracks. In contrast to 'Spanish Caravan,' the song features no instruments and is guided solely by vocals, hand claps and foot stomps, starting with an a cappella passage by Morrison that slowly builds to full-on cathartic chanting.
The album's closing cut, 'Five to One,' has become somewhat of an epitaph for Morrison since his death. "Five to one, one to five, no one here gets out alive," he sings. The primitive drum pounds, neanderthal guitar riffing and Morrison's pre-punk vocals could very well be the blueprint for the first Stooges album. "Your ballroom days are over baby," Morrison sings, overflowing with attitude and authority as the rest of the group pushes the song to the edge.
Originally, 'Waiting for the Sun' was to include the epic 'The Celebration of the Lizard,' which would have taken up all of side two. The prospect of expanding the free-form themes of 'The End' and 'When the Music's Over' undoubtedly appealed to the band, but the Doors couldn't quite connect the music with the lyrics (which are included inside the original album). The track would later end up on 'Absolutely Live.'
At times, tensions among band members ran high, and drummer John Densmore even walked out during a session. "I was just frustrated" he admitted in the liner notes to the Doors' 1987 box set. "Maybe I was trying to say to Jim, 'Don't be so self destructive.'"
Even if 'Waiting for the Sun' never reaches the stupendous heights of 'The Doors' and 'Strange Days,' it remains one of the Doors' most enjoyable albums and their only No. 1. At 30 minutes long, it packs quite a punch, leaving little breathing room. We couldn't ask for more.

HAMPSHIRE, U.K. — Mobile couponing is expected to greatly increase in popularity this year. According to a new report from Juniper Research, the number of discount coupons redeemed through mobile and tablet devices is expected to reach 10 billion this year, up by more than 50% on last year.
According to the report, innovative retailers are increasingly seeking to offer mobile as a delivery channel, both as a means of driving retail footfall and to enhance consumer engagement and retention. It pointed out that while mobile still accounted for a comparatively low volume of coupons issued, retailers had been encouraged by the markedly higher average redemption rate of mobile coupons (10%) when compared to traditional print media and PC coupons (typically 1% or less).
Furthermore, the report observed that mobile couponing offered retailers the opportunity to marry their digital and physical assets.
However, the report stressed that it was critical for retailers to ensure that such coupons had a time-based element, noting that a number of offers had gone unintentionally "viral" leading to brands being unable to service the demand for their products.
The report also found that retailer reluctance to upgrade POS (Point of Sale) terminals for authentication and redemption is creating a bottleneck, effectively suppressing the deployment of mobile coupons.

JASON GILLESPIE says there is room for improvement in both batting and bowling for his Yorkshire side after their opening round LV= County Championship draw against Somerset at Taunton.
Gillespie's troops claimed 11 points from a clash played out on a benign pitch suiting the batsmen.
There was an outside chance of a Somerset win during today's fourth morning when they secured a first-innings lead of 103 thanks to their 553 all out in reply to 450.
But, despite losing four wickets tamely, Yorkshire encountered few further difficulties as they closed on 193-4 declared, built around 57 not out for New Zealand overseas batsman Kane Williamson and 54 for opener Adam Lyth.
"I think there were a lot of positives, there's no doubt about that," said coach Gillespie.
"We put on a decent first-innings score, although we could have got more runs. I thought our efforts with the ball were fantastic, but there's room for improvement there as well.
"We know with our bowling, if we're completely honest, we can be a bit more disciplined at times. We showed signs of it by and large, but there were occasions when we let it drag a little bit.
"With the bat, ideally we would have liked another 100 runs, which would have helped us create a bit more pressure on the Somerset batting line-up."
Somerset started a forgettable day by advancing their first innings from 530-9 to 553 all out. Steve Patterson claimed the only wicket to fall when he trapped Craig Overton lbw.
The home side's innings included six half-centurions, but nobody scored a hundred. It was the fifth highest innings total in the history of Championship cricket compiled without a century.
Six of Yorkshire's seven-man attack got among the wickets, with Liam Plunkett's 4-117 from 28 overs the pick of the figures.
At no stage in the match did either side look on course for the win - largely down to the pitch. It was bowler-friendly during the first morning, but Somerset's bowlers did not make the most of it.
"It was a challenging pitch for both the spinners and the quicks to have an impact on," added Gillespie. "But that is what you're dealt with, and you have to get on with it.
"I certainly thought we worked hard, so there's good signs there.
"The statistics show that I think only five out of the last 32 games have resulted in wins for the team batting first. That's why Tres (Somerset captain Marcus Trescothick) bowled first. If you're going to get anything out of it, it is going to be day one."
In the end, it was quite surprisingly that Adil Rashid's 108 in the first innings was the only hundred in the match. There were 11 other fifties.
Somerset were hampered by the loss of seamers Alfonso Thomas and Overton yesterday due to injury, and it meant that part-time spinners Alviro Petersen and Johann Myburgh shared 40 of the 71 overs.
Lyth reached his second fifty in the match during an afternoon session which yielded only 57 runs in 29 overs. Williamson then reached his milestone shortly before the players shook hands on a draw.
Yorkshire return to Championship action on Sunday when they welcome Division One newcomers Northamptonshire to Headingley.

Check out another new clip from the upcoming Halloween comedy FUN SIZE starring Victoria Justice, Thomas Mann, Thomas McDonell, Thomas Middleditch, Chelsea Handler and opening in theaters on October 26th.
Fun Size centers on sarcastic high school senior Wren (Justice), who is eager to distance herself from her dysfunctional family by going off to college.

Frantic to locatehim before their mother discovers he's missing, Wren enlists the help of her sassy best friend April, as well as Peng, an aspiring ladies man and co-captain of the debate team, and Peng's best friend, Roosevelt, a sweet nerd whose crush on Wren clouds his better judgment. This unlikely foursome embarks on a high-stakes, all-night adventure to find Albert, crossing paths with outrageous characters every step of the way.

'Import enthusiasts' decry police crackdown on 'street racers'
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) They drive fast cars. But they don't call them street racers.
"It's just all show," said Ernesto, who spoke on condition that his last name not be used. "Just hanging out, barbecuing, meeting up with friends."
They call themselves import enthusiasts, people who modify imported cars for hobby.
An enthusiast who calls himself "Panda" said there's a misconception that he and his friends are street racers.
"I don't intend to do anything illegal," said Panda, who also wouldn't offer his real name. "I go to the meets to show off my hard work and time, and money and effort."
Local "car meets" are usually held in large parking lots, often attracting hundreds of vehicles.
"We just go out there to hang out with friends," said Panda. "Cops just show up and kick us out, and then whenever we leave, they just start pulling us over for no reason."
At a meet Nov. 16 in Bakersfield, police issued 62 citations for equipment and license violations.
"We have had several fatal traffic accidents that have been linked to street racing," said Sgt. Joe Grubbs with the Bakersfield Police Department. "It's dangerous for people who are out on the roadways."
"Streets are not designed as racetracks," Grubbs continued.
Mike, who also would give his last name, said he considers himself a leader in the local import community. He said law enforcement has the wrong idea about import enthusiasts.
"Spend time with us as we do on a Saturday night, and kind of see who causes the problems, so you can catch who's actually causing the incident that causes you guys to come and mess with us," said Mike.
He even issued a challenge to police, "You guys need to catch the real people that are doing it."

Discussion in 'Texans Talk' started by Heath Shuler, Oct 30, 2011.
To all that are doing the wave at Reliant: stop; just stop (especially when we are on offense).
Exactly! WTF was that all about?
People still do that?
Its freakin embarrassing.
Who cares.... If someone pays for the ticket....they can do what ever they want. Last time I looked, it wasn't illegal. I didn't see anything wrong with it, it was actually fun to watch and brought back some good memories.
I was at the game. Pissed me off. Ok, ONE wave around the stadium is ok (I still think it's dumb), but it kept going and going. And, as it got larger, and more people got into it, it got louder and louder. I kept yelling for people to stop.
Texans fans are clueless sometimes, I swear.
Um, the problem is, it got LOUD when we were on offense. You're supposed to be quiet when we're on offense. Get it? Regardless of whether someone pays for the ticket, that's Football 101.
The wave is better suited for baseball, IMO.
Its pretty basic; when the Texans have the ball, the crowd should be quiet. Did you see the false start penalty on the Texans? Do I really need to explain this to you?
Only fatass people in Houston would oppose standing up for 2 seconds.
If you can't wave, be a sitting down punk then. Don't knock everyone else for having a good time just because you're too insecure to have fun at a football game. That was an awesome wave and if you missed out, I feel embarrassed for you for sitting down and acting like you're better than everyone. And how about posting about it? You know what's better suited for baseball? YOU.
I was at the game. I know it's wrong to make noise when we're on offense & for the most part, all the fans do as well.
So none of you guys sitting at home, don't be acting like you know your **** & we should be more like you.
If you want to blame anybody for the wave while we're on offense, blame your offense. Usually they do the wave when we are on defense, but nobody wants to miss a snap when the Texans are on defense.
Offense.... the offense needs to do something before they go blaming the fans, we gave them 3 Qtrs, we were getting bored.
I don't think it was the wave in and of itself. It was WHEN the crowd decided to do it. The home team is supposed to make noise when our guys are on defense, not when we're on offense. Wave all you want when THEY have the ball.
Like someone said, that's fandom 101.
Oh trust me, I was standing up and LOUD during most of the game. But, guess what, I was loud when we were on DEFENSE.
When your team has the ball: quiet.
When the other team has the ball: loud.
Why is that so hard for people to understand?
Are y'all telling me that fans in the stands doing the WAVE caused a false start for the Texans?
Damn, we're worse than I thought we were .....
as was I
then don't
your right, its the fans perogative, but, in this instance, when the texans are on offense, i have to agree...its stupid.
Yes, we did.
Fandom 100
Have some fun.
Fandom 101
If the people around you aren't having fun, who ****ing cares? They're probably too fat to stand up for 2 seconds anyway. You can just tell them to **** themselves later on the message board.
Trust me, I don't care what YOU were doing. Personally, I drank a lot and sat in the sun and when everything but the Texans offense heated up...I could give less of a **** about people who are to stuck up their own asses to get up and scream for no reason. You are the people that need to give up your tickets and stay at home so more of us crazies have room to do whatever the **** we want.
I guess you just dont get it. Go to the Texans games and yell your ass off when the home team has the ball.
Did it take out anyone's diet coke?
When the coaches and players are making the get quiet arm motion (including Schaub who was probably having problems hearing the play the way he held his helmet) and they Scoreboard guys flash 'Quiet - Offense at Work' and the wave continues and gets louder for a few minutes, well, that is asinine.
I think the crowd noise might have had something to do with the flase start and I was yelling at my section to shut the heck up because we were on offense.

Good to have mastery of speech,

Cal wrote:Many thanks to all responders for the very thoughtful and helpful advice. All very helpful and useful suggestions, thank you for taking the time to respond.
I have spent more time solely in Metta meditation today, and listening to the Ajahn Sujato talk. This felt less painful.
On the suggestion of samatha practice. Are there any particularly good sources on this, from a Theravada perspective?
Cal wrote:Not exactly a very cheerful topic for my first proper posting, sorry.
I've very rarely had very joyful (vipassana) meditation sessions, they are generally quite hard work. However, recently (3-4 weeks) I am really struggling. My concentration is very poor, and I'm finding it almost impossible to stay with the breath for more than a very few seconds. My tension levels are currently quite high, such that it is almost physically painful, and especially so in meditation. I regularly find myself almost gritting my teeth to get to the end of even a 20 minute sit, and regularly find myself 'bursting' out of meditation with a jolt, and then giving up.
I do have some challenging family issues currently.
Any thoughts or ideas on making meditation more of a pleasure rather than a painful chore, would be much appreciated. I usually find that a longish Metta meditation period before vipassana helps, but even this is painful currently.
Do you have a hands-on teacher Cal ?
Cal wrote:Thank you Srotapanna. I'm feeling a little less despairing, a little more concentrated in meditation. For the last couple of days, I've dropped all but metta meditation, in which I am at least able to concentrate for more than a few moments at once. I intend to stick with this approach for a few weeks now, to see if I can regain some focus and pleasure in my meditation.
Many thanks for the link - a very clear explanation of samatha vs vipassana, and some useful suggestions. Much appreciated.

I was at a storage locker auction and saw this chair in one of the units and had to have it. The only problem is, I have not been able to find anything about this chair. Can anyone tell me who made this chair and how old it is? As you can see form the last photo, the webbing is in need of repair but it will still hold my weight when I sit in it. Amazingly well built. It also has a rocker action to it. I have a stressless chair and this one is just as comfortable. I wonder if it is the predisesor to the stressless. I would appreciate any info you have to share.
