Out of the Humidor
Dear Marvin:
After my first wife died, I made a habit of smoking my first cigar in bed before breakfast. When I was making the decision for my second marriage, I wanted to make sure that I would still be able to continue to do this, so as part of our prenuptial agreement, it was included that I could smoke a cigar before breakfast in my bed. However, I was very accommodating. I had an air conditioner installed right over my head, and I'd put the fan on so it would draw out most of the smoke.

Dear Marvin:
I'm sitting in my office this morning with a cup of coffee, a Hoyo de Monterrey and CIGAR AFICIONADO. While reading letters from my cigar-smoking compatriots, what a relief to discover that I am not alone.
Having smoked cigars for more than 20 years, I have experienced every form of abuse you could imagine. My wife and family are insidious in their disdain. My employees accept it only for obvious reasons. Strangers are abusive and often militant.
Over the years, I have retreated (with many cigars) to the only remaining safe haven: my office. It is here, I decided, that I would make my last stand. Resolute yet courteous, I even made an effort to accommodate visitors to my office on the top floor of a 22-story building. I had a very powerful exhaust blower installed directly over my desk. Days later, building management conducted a search to discover the origin of the cigar scent throughout the building. They discovered that the installers, instead of venting through the roof, had vented to the mechanical shaft that runs from the top to the bottom of the building. Each time an elevator ran, it created a vacuum, which sucked the air (and my cigar smoke) down the mechanical shaft, spreading it throughout the building.
Imagine my surprise and anger! More than 600 building occupants had been participating in my private moments of unadulterated bliss. I felt violated. My indignation increased with the realization that these people were undeserving of the experience. I had unknowingly exposed them to the scent of a culture that they could never hope to comprehend.
Needless to say, I took quick, decisive action to assure that these malcontents would never have such an opportunity again. Brutal, yes, but they caused my exile, and I'll be damned if they will share my private pleasure.

Dear Marvin:
Your response to the woman who was concerned about the possible ill-health effect of cigar smoking might have been incomplete. There are at least two other factors that must be considered in the cigar/pipe versus cigarette debate. The first factor is easy to understand: cigarettes contain many carcinogenic ingredients. Cigars and pipe tobacco, on the other hand, will be recognized in 20 or 25 years as one of the most benign products extant: all natural ingredients, 100 percent biodegradable, replenishable and salutary.
The second factor is, perhaps, much more telling. For purposes of life-insurance coverage, pipe and cigar smokers who don't smoke cigarettes can receive the nonsmokers' preferred rate from many companies. Think about that. The people who pay actuaries very good money to know precisely when you can be expected to drop dead have determined that pipe and cigar smoking is not detrimental to health. Need more be said?

Editor's Response: You're absolutely right. Let's go one step further. If any cigar or pipe-only smokers are not getting preferred rates from their insurance company, they can switch to one that provides it. Send the message that you want equal treatment. Some insurance companies that do not penalize cigar smokers are Northwestern Mutual Life, American General and Prudential. There are many others too. Check them out.

Dear Marvin:
I was introduced to your magazine and cigar smoking during the summer on a weekend visit with a friend. After witnessing his delight in a good cigar and the new issue of CIGAR AFICIONADO, I became interested in developing my own appreciation for cigars.
Upon returning home from my visit, I immediately went out and bought an issue for myself. I took it home to my father, whom I had known to enjoy an occasional cigar. To his surprise, I told him I wanted to try a cigar with him sometime. Within that same week, he and I were standing outside on a clear, quiet evening, smoking a cigar. I don't think that sharing a cigar with his 21 -year-old daughter was something my father ever expected to do, but that is exactly what we did throughout the summer.
I have since moved to a place of my own to begin graduate school, 900 miles away from my dad. I know that our cigar smoking was a special exchange that few fathers and daughters share, and it is an event that I look forward to taking place again. I believe that he and I would not have taken up cigar smoking had it not been for the way your magazine has presented the beauty of the cigar and the pleasure it provides.
I have just furnished my new apartment with a new copy of the summer CIGAR AFICIONADO, and I have christened this home with its first cigar. I have also ordered subscriptions for myself and my father.
CIGAR AFICIONADO is a lovely magazine, and it is almost as relaxing as the cigar itself. Because I am a student with a tendency to stress out constantly, you can imagine happiness at finding such calming pastimes as smoking a cigar and reading this magazine.

Dear Marvin:
For more than a decade, my company was blessed with dramatic and sustained growth, only to be staggered by the economic downturn of the '90s. The fact that I have gone from 100 employees to two is sufficient evidence of the fall.
Prior to a recent meeting with bankers to whom we are in default, my attorney warned me not to arrive in a luxury car or to wear an expensive suit, gold watch, or carry a pocketful of my beloved Davidoffs. Sound advice, which nevertheless depressed me as I reflected that it had, indeed, "come to this."
Every success often becomes meaningless, or worse, a taunting reminder in the face of failure. Adjusting to reality may be a painful, guilt-ridden but necessary trip on the road to recovery. I found myself questioning my right to smoke fine cigars and began to buy much cheaper ones, thus feeding my dour mood. A friend pointed out that I was doing everything possible to help the situation and should not deny myself the occasional satisfaction of a great dinner and a fine cigar. I took his advice.
Marvin, I love your magazine. I once fit on the high end of your readers' profile, and I hope to be there again. I'm sure you have many other subscribers who are similarly afflicted. To them, my best advice is not to punish yourself for things that are now history. Don't succumb to the false economy of smoking cheap cigars; instead, enjoy your favorites on a less frequent basis and think of it as a temporary setback.

Despite its unsavoury reputation in past years, Temple Bar is one of the city's most charming neighbourhoods and residents are trying hard to keep it that way. Cobblestone streets, bars, cafés, art galleries and architectural splendour harmoniously blend with old streetscapes and eco-friendly schemes. Among the cultural attractions are Dublin's only art-house cinema at the Irish Film Institute, the Gallery of Photography and the Project Arts Centre.
If all you came to Dublin for is the Guinness, then camp out at Kehoe's. The bar's friendly staff keep the mugs full and on a busy night the crowd huddles around the stairs - neighbourhood tavern style. The elegant wooden fitting has an old-school character and the snugs are delightful, which makes drinking here a rich experience. But a word of advice, the bathrooms are to be avoided if you fear small spaces.

This isn't how you'd imagine a castle in the traditional sense. There's no moat, no drawbridge to lower against invading hordes, no turrets from which to pour boiling oil. It's more a collection of 18th-century administrative buildings, albeit fine ones, built on a medieval plan of two courtyards. Dublin Castle hosts grand diplomatic or state functions, and occasional performances like concert recitals. The beautiful interior is accessible on a pay-per-view basis, but you can wander freely around the castle.
See all major venues
The wooden décor may be excessively rustic, but Dublin's oldest microbrewery pub, the Porterhouse, makes up for that with the quality of its beer. The pub only sells its own label of beers, but the stouts, lagers and ales are better than any mass-produced beer. The Oyster Stout, made with real oysters, is very good. The excellent pub food, Irish stew, and bangers and mash will fill you up without breaking the bank.

St Patrick's Day on 17 March (www.stpatricksfestival.ie) offers the perfect excuse to drink, if you need one. The parade exhibits some of Europe's best street performers and there's a four-day gala of world-class entertainment. Spring is when 12 Points! Festival of Europe's New Jazz (www.improvisedmusic.ie/12points.php) comes to town. If you're a film buff, then July and August are the months of free Saturday night movies at Jameson Movies on the Square (www.templebar.ie). Finally, the Dublin Writer's Festival (www.dublinwritersfestival.com) offers a feast of readings, discussions and public debates.
Sunday morning is the best time to visit this intellectual hub, before the students are awake and while the bells toll for morning mass throughout the city. Trinity College is an oasis of peace and beauty. Its campus is a mix of classical and contemporary buildings interspersed with elegant gardens. Founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I, Trinity boasts stellar alumni, including playwright Oscar Wilde and Nobel laureate Samuel Beckett. During the summer, enthusiastic students give 30-minute guided tours.
Fridays are fun times at Peploe's. Lunches are popular with local heroes, business gurus and the cultured set of the city. The location is fabulous, and the rooms are decked out with wood, murals and crisp table linen. The established venue serves classic dishes like French onion soup, Caesar salad and smoked salmon with dill sauce, and the wine list is good and long. Hugo's, on the other hand, is the new kid on the block, but is attracting a following with its international menu and expansive list of wines from around the globe. The staff are friendly and efficient, and on a warm summer evening drinking a glass of crisp rosé in the elegant surroundings is a delight.

You always expect great things from Trinity College and the innovative Science Gallery certainly doesn't disappoint. It takes a fresh look at applications of science in real life, making white hot technology accessible to everyone. Don't be surprised if you see exhibitions of techno-thread clothing, displays of robotic art and debates about the future of bio-fuels and the efficacy of anti-depressants. They've even harnessed nanotechnology to inscribe their logo on the face of a diamond.

The Six Nations Rugby tournament is among the highlights of the Irish Sporting Calendar. Home games are played at Croke Park and the whole city gets caught up in the excitement. Even if Ireland's not playing, match days are one big party and tradition demands that you quarrel over the goals at a local pub.

Given the coastal location, fish is the order of the day: Dover sole on the bone, baked sea bass, pan-fried halibut and slow-cooked organic salmon. Aqua's distinctly urban appearance is softened by gorgeous sea views and a warm, cosy bar in front of a casual, uncluttered dining room – the venue for a great Sunday lunch to the sound of live jazz. On bright, sunny days, save time for a nice stroll around the harbour.

The Cobblestone is a gem. The musicians' corner downstairs attracts traditional players whom you would pay to see elsewhere, and the paying venue upstairs rarely books a duff band. It often showcases traditional and folk music. Overall, it's cosy, while eschewing unnecessary frills; if you want to avoid excessive paddy-whackery in favour of a genuine traditional Dublin pub atmosphere, come here.

In a concealed courtyard, the Cake Café is an adorable venture that has already won itself a loyal following. The air inside is warm with the smell of heavenly own-made cakes, biscuits, pies and cupcakes, sandwiches, great salads (caramelised pear, blue cheese and walnut) and some more ambitious hot dishes. Everything is served on artfully mismatched crockery and the staff are delightfully welcoming. A hidden treasure.

If you don't want to pay to get into Dublin Castle then stroll around the Dubh Linn Gardens hidden behind. It's the original place of the dubh linn (dark pool), from where the city drew its name and was recently landscaped into a garden. Though most tourists don't know about it, it's extremely popular with office goers as a lunch venue. Sometimes, it's also used as a helicopter-landing site.

The Dublin Fringe festival (www.fringefest.com) is as established an event as its Scottish counterpart. Usually a mixed bag of performances in September, the festival is dedicated to promoting new companies, and showcasing experimental material. The emphasis, of course, is on the unusual and the performances are innovative.
This is not a tourist-snaring pizza counter. Dunne & Crescenzi is the original and probably still the best Italian café in town, with two adjoining spaces on South Frederick Street. Both are small, dark and can feel a touch on the claustrophobic side. But the food is simply wonderful: the tasty, fresh and simple lunches include cured and smoked meats, salads and panini. Lunches are accompanied by a full wine list. The heart-warming coffee will match any brew that the European mainland has to offer.

Buzz Fendall is a man on a mission – to bring amazing coffee to Dublin. Bald Barista, a busy friendly café, is his gift to the city. Beans are sourced directly from individual farmers in Brazil, Sumatra and Ethiopia, and are freshly ground on site. Of course, there's more to the place than just coffee – snacks and lunches are served on the slickly appointed mezzanine dining area or the diminutive terrace.

Loft Market, a New York-style indoor fashion market attracts local fashion junkies and hip students on the trail of individual, one-off looks, which are the stock in trade of the young designers and artists who share this space. There are plenty of vintage items of clothing and jewellery on sale.

Everyone loves Chapter One for its affordable fine dining experience. The choice is spectacular: Irish-caught yellow fin tuna with fennel and squid braised in saffron, and Connemara mountain lamb with rump glazed in mustard and white truffle honey are among the delights. You can follow them up with Irish raspberry poached meringue, almond and pistachio cracknel, and lime anglaise. The menu speaks for itself.

Formerly one of the few playhouses on Dublin's south side, Andrew's Lane has reopened as a music venue. It may be missed by theatre lovers, but is attracting fans and gaining a strong reputation on the city's music scene. So far, the fare has tended towards the left-field end of the spectrum, with arty electronica acts from the likes of Matmos and Venetian Snares wooing the more adventurous punters.

You would usually associate giant greasy burgers with the Americans. But Bobo's has gained quite a reputation for turning out some fine patties. This excellent little diner serves up peerless organic burgers, 'proper chubby chips' in old-fashioned buckets and delicious malts, shakes and juices.

Thanks for sharing. I'm on a School trip to Dublin between 8th and the 4th February 2016. Any suggestions?
The six Nations rugby aren't played at Croke Park, clearly someone who is ignorant in Irish sport made this inclusion.

Delighted to see timeout doing a Dublin list...however a few edits here and there could really help! A nice trip to the Phoenix Park or even Stephen's green might break up all the eating and drinking!

What about the new little gem called the Irish Whiskey Museum located right across the road from the main entrance of Trinity College. What a great experience. Staff were lovely, the tour was great and to top it off a tasting of Irish whiskeys....mmm!

Clicked on 20 GREAT THINGS TO DO IN DUBLIN - but what a let down, eateries or drinking houses made up at least half of the list, I know I'm Irish but even I don't spend half my time eating & drinking when I visit cities. Also just in case you didn't know Six Nations Rugby Matches are not played in Croke Park.
A good tthing to do on a sunday is go to a youth Group. There's 2 that I know of - one in phibsboro Dublin 7, and another in ardee Street Dublin 8, more info at: www.youthpower.ie check it ou!

Ah, you didn't have to insult Americans, but I still can't wait to visit Dublin and try that burger at Bobo's. :)
LOL Was lookin to see what there was to do if I planned a trip to finally cross the big pond and step foot in Ireland. But it seems your list is a little bias for the local businesses. I'd love to hear more from the locals but weeding through the SPAM is a little tiresome.
What an extraordinary list - who on earth came up with these? There are significantly better things to do on a Sunday than this weird collection: The Zoo, Phoenix Park, the Bull Wall, Clarendon Street for sung mass (brilliant choir), The Memorial Gardens, Kilmainham jail, National Gallery, Grafton Street browsing, Stephens Green, the Georgian Squares of Dublin, The Grand Canal, Henry Street, Arnotts; Chapters Bookstore, The Casino at Marino, The Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin Cemetary, Dart to Howth or Greystones etc etc etc etc.

Clearly not published by the publics input on what Dublin has to offer rather advertising for local businesses , where is kilmainham gaol ,phoenix park or anything that even offers a view into irish history ,I live in Dublin all my life and would never visit any of the places you have listed (other than temple bar ) there should be a better list that gives people an insight into what Dublin has to offer , remember you can get good food and drink in any country people would like to see what else we have to offer.
thanks very much for recommanding places such as Bobo's and Dunne and Crescenzi we went to both places and the food was amazing! I also highly recommand trying the Bakerhouse it's perfection!
Clearly had no input from people living in Dublin! That's not what we do.
One of my favourite things to do is aimlessly stroll around the city during the day time, and go out for a bite at one of the many restaurants Dublin has so many to offer!

No Place to Hide
My biggest complaint about the market lately has been the lack of strong emotions. It drifts up and down randomly while the bears whine about impending doom and the bulls shrug.
This morning started very slowly, but selling is gaining traction. The market is challenging the lows of the last two days, which is likely to trigger sell stops if they are breached....129 more words left in this article. To read them, just click below and try Real Money FREE for 14 days.

Seven Group Holdings blamed a subdued coal sector in NSW for a cautious outlook, which includes flat underlying earnings for the current half year, after reporting that net profits for the six months to December 31 increased 590 per cent to $258 million.
The strong result was largely powered by Seven's Caterpillar franchise in NSW and Western Australia - Westrac.
The continued strength of the resources boom saw product sales for the heavy machinery business jump 87 per cent to $1.68 billion for the December half while earnings before interest and tax rose 63 per cent to $275 million.
Shares of the company rose 40 cents, or 4 per cent, to $10.45 in afternoon trade.
''The first half group result was exceptional and was driven by some significant large fleet deliveries at Westrac,'' said Seven Group chief executive Peter Gammell. ''The second half will not see this level of product sales and we are therefore not anticipating as good a half.''
He said earnings will be flat for the current half and underlying group net profit for the 2013 financial year will be up approximately 10 to 20 per cent on 2012's $343 million result.
Seven reported that underlying profit after tax increased 39 per cent to $235 million for the December half.
Mr Gammell said the main issue is the difference between the recovery of the iron sector - in line with recent gains in the price of ore - and the subdued outlook for coal which dominates Westrac's NSW business.
''The confidence in the iron ore sector has definitely returned whereas in the coal sector the same cannot be said, it is looking very flat,'' Mr Gammell said.
NSW is not the only Westrac business under pressure.
Seven flagged trouble at Westrac's Chinese operations at last year's AGM with cost being cut to match falling sales.
For the December half Seven said revenues were down 28 per cent and the business was break even at the EBIT level.
Mr Gammell flagged a return to profitability for the business in the current half year.
Earnings for the December half also got a boost from the sale of Seven's stake in Consolidated Media Holdings to News Corp for $491 million with the group reporting a gain on the sale of $50 million.
The sales proceeds, and strong cash flow, helped reduce Seven's debt from $1.72 billion to $837 million.
The sale of CMH further reduces Seven's media investments to its 35 per cent stake in Seven West - the owner of the Seven network and West Australian Newspapers - and a smaller stake in Prime Media.
Last year its media investment's accounted for less than 20 per cent of Seven Group earnings.
The potential sale of Seven's 45 per cent share of the Coates Hire Group - which it co-owns with private equity firm the Carlyle Group - continues, with Goldman Sachs recently dispatching an information memorandum to interest parties.
''This process is still ongoing,'' Mr Gammell said.
Seven increased its fully-franked interim dividend by two cents to 20 cents a share.

Randel Everett, who oversaw the Baptist General Convention of Texas during a period when two churches were forced to leave because of their acceptance of gays, is stepping down as executive director. The Dallas Morning News reports that Everett will become pastor at First Baptist Church in Midland, which frankly sounds like a better fit for him than Dallas. The story talks about how Everett had to "grapple with the recession and with the general decline of denominations. Under him, the BGCT continued to trim staff and cut its budget due to decline in giving from affiliate churches."
Well, it seems kinda hard to complain about this stuff when you're actively driving churches out of the convention because of your homophobia. Broadway Baptist Church in Fort Worth left the convention voluntarily in September, and Royal Lane Baptist Church was kicked out in May.
When Royal Lane was kicked out, Everett called the decision "painful." Everett said BGCT churches should "welcome homosexuals," but Royal Lane's decision to allow "practicing homosexuals" as deacons meant that it was going against the group's view that homosexuality is sinful.
If the convention were smart and wanted to stop the bleeding, they'd find someone to replace Everett who's a little more open-minded. Trouble is, these folks don't appear to be very smart.

multi-touch the storm – interactive sound visuals – subcycle labs from christian bannister on Vimeo.
I received an email yesterday from Christian Bannister of Subcycle Labs asking me to view a video of a project he is working on. This is another example that shows how transforming touch screens are going to be for musicians.
"This is part of a series of sketches exploring the potential to bridge the gap between sound visualization and musical instrument. With multi-touch interaction it is possible to manipulate multiple characteristics of a sound—visually, and simultaneously. This shift has the potential of bringing the experience of synthesizer as music instrument to a whole new place. This approach allows the performer to have a more tactile and immediate experience of the synthesizer and also creates a visual reference for the audience. In the performance of electronic music it is fairly common that the audience is alienated from the process and performance of the musician. This project hopes to create a common visual language and experience for the electronic musician and the audience by enhancing the perception of sound and music on both sides." – Christian Bannister

2007 GMC Yukon Custom Painted Flames - Apple Pie, Baseball, And Flames?
How To Flame Your Truck
Flames will never go out of style. There, I said it. Yes, current trends are leaning towards cleaner one-color or two-tone styles, but flames are Americana and when you pull up to a show or a buddy's house with a nice set of hot-rod licks on your ride, a statement has been made. Apple pie, baseball, and flames—it's red, white and blue for the custom world. The laying down and painting of flames shouldn't be seen as mysterious, it just takes a smooth hand, creative brain, and some patience. Here are the basics on how to turn your daily driver into a real head-turner by applying some hot-rod-infused style in the form of a flame paint job.
To help us pull off the paint chores, we teamed up with Westcoast Racecraft and "Bigg" Mike Royall of Airbrushzone, both in Phoenix. Mike was an Honorable Mention in '08 for House of Kolor's Prestigious Painter Award and he was happy to fill us in on some of his painting secrets. In a matter of a few days, this silver '07 GMC Yukon was forever transformed with two sets of flames, in two different colors—House of Kolor Apple Red Kandy and Orion Silver. If you've ever wondered how flames are done or if you're ready to add some to your truck, this story is for you.

The Empowered to Live the Life You Choose community outreach program lets people talk about domestic abuse in a one-on-one setting.
If you're in an abusive relationship and feel hopeless with no one to turn to, don't despair because there is help available at the Empowered to Live the Life You Choose community outreach program at Library Partnership.
"I'm here (Library Partnership) to talk about domestic violence," said Tracey Hickmon, coordinator for the Rebuilding Community Outreach program, which is a collaboration between the Black on Black Crime Task Force and the Gainesville Police Department.
Hickmon said she is available from 9 a.m. - noon Tuesday and from 11 a.m.- 2 p.m. Wednesday, and on the second Tuesday and Wednesday of the month thereafter in the lobby of the Library Partnership, 1130 NE 16th Ave.
Caressa Hutchinson, manager of the Neighborhood Resource Center, said people can just show up and meet individually with Hickmon to discuss concerns.
"I think this is an amazing program," Hutchinson said. "It's important for people to have resources they can easily tap into when they have a crisis in their lives."
Hickmon said the program strives to help people identify domestic abuse, recognize and overcome obstacles and break away from an abusive relationship. They also receive information about services and resources available in the community.
"We want to bring awareness about domestic violence and the stumbling blocks that keep us from living the life we choose," Hickmon said.
According to the National Domestic Violence Hotline website, domestic violence consists of a pattern of behavior used to gain or maintain power or control over an intimate partner. The abuse can include physical, sexual, emotional, economic or psychological actions or threats used to frighten, intimidate, terrorize, manipulate, hurt or wound someone.
Hickmon said someone who has grown up in a hostile environment may not be able to identify domestic abuse because for him or her it's normal.
Hickmon said domestic violence can happen to anyone of any race, age, sexual orientation, religion or gender. She said it affects people of all socioeconomic backgrounds and education levels.
At Library Partnership, Hickmon said she sits in the lobby and tries to engage people by asking them if they're living the life they choose and whether they're in a healthy relationship. She said some people want to talk while others avoid eye contact but may come back to talk to her another time. She said some people discuss domestic abuse they're experiencing or talk about someone they know who is in an abusive relationship. She said everyone is offered an opportunity to participate in the 10-week "Empowered to Live the Life You Choose" program, which is designed to bring awareness to the obstacles domestic abuse victims face in their journey to freedom. She said the obstacles include denial, fear, guilt/rejection, and anger/hostility. She said they work through obstacles at their own pace and receive support to overcome whatever hinders them so they can live the life they choose.
"Domestic abuse is a big hidden problem in our community," said Hickmon, adding for the most part domestic abuse victims are women of all ages. She said in her four-years coordinating the program, there have been only three male victims of domestic abuse.
"We want to be in a relationship because we want to be loved, supported, cared for and nurtured," Hickmon said. "Our home shouldn't be a place where we're belittled and hurt. Our home should be the love home, a place where we can go to rebuild."

PLANS for an eco village of 60 homes on an industrial estate between Salisbury Rugby Club and Hudson's Field have been turned down by Wiltshire Council's strategic planning committee.
The committee heard Fairfields Eco Village would consist of 36 houses and 24 apartments with all the latest green credentials, with 30 per cent affordable housing.
But at a meeting of the council's strategic planning committee at Salisbury City Hall this morning, members refused permission because if the outline application was granted, the developer would not be obliged to stick to the eco village designs put forward.
Councillor Fred Westmoreland said while he didn't object to development of the site, design should be the most important consideration as the houses would be visible from all angles, including from the Old Sarum monument. "What is needed here is some sort of design principle," he said.
"Design is first, last and everything." "I happen to think Salisbury is an ancient monument and if we do something which actually makes approaches to Salisbury look less than they do now, then we are not serving this city as we should."
Members raised concerns about the loss of employment at the site and the relocating of the existing businesses on the Castle Works estate, including Janspeed and Burlen Fuel Systems.
Concerns about access to the site, traffic along Castle Road, parking, the height of proposed dwellings, and the proximity to Salisbury Rugby Club were also raised by residents and by Salisbury City Council.
The committee voted unanimously to refuse permission.

The Overmonitored Nursery
September 26, 2017,
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become fragile and more likely to fracture. Usually the bone loses density, which measures the amount of calcium and minerals in the bone.
Recent findings and perspectives on medical research.
Medications can help treat osteoporosis, but there is no guaranteed cure or a sure way to prevent all fractures.
Thin bones; Low bone density
Osteoporosis is the most common type of bone disease.
Because of osteoporosis about half of all women over the age of 50 will have a fracture of the hip, wrist, or vertebra (bone of the spine) during their lifetime.
Bone is living tissue. Existing bone is constantly being replaced by new bone. Osteoporosis occurs when the body fails to form enough new bone, when too much existing bone is reabsorbed by the body, or both.
Calcium is one of the important minerals needed for bones to form. If you do not get enough calcium and vitamin D, or your body does not absorb enough calcium from your diet, your bones may become brittle and more likely to fracture.
Sometimes bone loss occurs without any cause. Caucasian women are more likely to have bone loss. Sometimes the tendency to have bone loss and thin bones is passed down through families.
A drop in estrogen in women at the time of menopause and a drop in testosterone in men is a leading cause of bone loss. Other causes of bone loss include:
Other risk factors include:
There are no symptoms in the early stages of osteoporosis. Many times, people will have a fracture before learning that they have the disease.
Pain almost anywhere in the spine can be caused by fractures of the bones of the spine. These are called compression fractures. They often occur without an injury. The pain occurs suddenly or slowly over time.
There can be a loss of height (as much as 6 inches) over time. A stooped posture or kyphosis (also called a dowager's hump) may develop.In-Depth Symptoms »
Treatment for osteoporosis may involve:
Medicines are used to strengthen bones when:
Medicines used to treat osteoporosis include:
Exercise plays a key role in preserving bone density in older adults. Some of the exercises recommended to reduce your chance of a fracture include:
Avoid any exercise that presents a risk of falling. Also, do not do high-impact exercises that can cause fractures in older adults.
Your body needs calcium and vitamin D to keep your bones strong. Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium.
Stop unhealthy habits:
It is important to prevent falls. The following are suggestions on how to do this:
Surgery to treat severe, disabling pain from spinal fractures due to osteoporosis include:
Medicines to treat osteoporosis can help prevent future fractures. But spine bones that have already collapsed cannot be reversed.
Osteoporosis can cause a person to become disabled from weakened bones. Hip fractures are one of the main reasons people are admitted to nursing homes.
Calcium is important for building and maintaining healthy bone. Vitamin D is also needed because it helps your body absorb calcium. Following a healthy, well-balanced diet can help you get these and other important nutrients.
Other tips for prevention:
Medicines can prevent osteoporosis. Your doctor can tell you if any are right for you.

WEST AUGUSTINE, Fla. - Detectives with the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office are seeking information into several incidents of gun violence last week.
During one incident that occurred just before 10 p.m. Nov. 20, someone drove a vehicle through the area of Christopher and Aiken streets and discharged a firearm several times.
No one was reported injured, and deputies found a shell casing in the area but were unable to find any witnesses near the scene.
The second incident happened just after midnight Wednesday at a home in the 400 block of South Nassau Street. Several shots struck an occupied home, but no injuries were reported.
Deputies said they met with the victims at the time and were able to process some evidence related to the shootings.
Investigators said that at this time, it's unknown if the two shootings are related, and detectives would like to speak with any witnesses to the gunfire incidents.
Anyone with any information is asked to call Detective Gene Tolbert at the Sheriff's Office at 904-209-3985 or Crime Stoppers at 888-277-TIPS (8477).

Here is a tongue-in-cheek post from Rafael Villalobos, CFCA project coordinator in San Jose, Costa Rica. Rafa joined CFCA President and Co-founder Bob Hentzen on Walk2gether and made friends with the iconic Walk2gether camper, a vehicle that has accompanied Bob since the walk began. The camper is with Bob right now in Peru.
Hello, dear friend camper:
I remember the first time I saw your picture. You looked good. Don Roberto (Bob) told me, ìItís old, like me, but it still runs.î
CFCA Walk2gether camper.
They told us your name: Walk2gether Camper.
We waited for you happily. I fondly remember March 1, when you arrived in Costa Rica together with the walkers. Everyone watched you with respect.
You came loaded with luggage, lots of water, tools, spare tire, food, kitchen supplies, clothes for the walkers, medicine, electric generator, etc.
You looked tired and beaten, but in your lights, I noticed an immense joy.
With your flashers, you animated the children and sang with us, ìWhile walking, borders disappear. We become of one land, one cry for justice, and we blend together like the land blends when we make footprints while we walk. We join dignity and hope in one flag Ö Latin America.î
You drove thousands of miles on your tires. The logos and banners you wore indicated you were not simply a camper. ì12,500 kilometers bringing hope.î
You were like Noahís Ark, crossing oceans to bring hope and blessings to all the villages.
I remember one rainy afternoon when you shared what it means to be part of CFCA:
ìWhen they were about to toss me out like a useless piece of junk, the foundation noticed me. It said I was important. My life had meaning. There was hope for me. This renewed the spark in my motor.
"What they have done with me, the CFCA staff in different countries do with others. I have seen many families who were forgotten and disillusioned recover their dignity, get up and today walk through life with a purpose. That is my life today.
Paul Pearce, CFCA director of international programs, gives the camper a helping hand. The picture was taken when the camper was at CFCA's Kansas City headquarters.
"I accompany Don Roberto and DoÒa Cristina (Bob's wife), prophets of life and hope. I welcome them inside so they can regain their strength.
"They make coffee in my cabin. We have peanuts, a small bath, two beds. This isnít a mansion, but it is a home. When they go back outside to walk, I feel proud of my work.
"I continue my journey with my lights on, protecting them and saying to the families they are not alone. Walk with us."
You walked nearly 600 kilometers (about 373 miles) in Costa Rica. You said goodbye to the walkers on the border with Panama and prepared for the journey to Cartagena, Colombia.
We had to bring you to the port. We couldnít take you on the road. We had to bring you on a special apparatus called a ìlow boy.î We did it.
We accompanied you until the final moment. We watched from afar as you moved away from land on your journey by sea to Colombia.
Thank you, companion camper. Itís been an honor to spend time with you! Keep bringing happiness. Keep bringing hope!
Bob Hentzen comments:
"The camper is a symbol of the spirit of the walk. Ö We found this camper on eBay and it was perfect, it was us. It's a little bit old but still strong. It's very economical, doesn't pretend to win races, but it will get there. There have been places where I thanked God for this camper, where Cristina and I have gotten a good night of sleep. "

Gorgeous Kitchen Remodel on a Low Budget
Posted August 28, 2013
It's a common syndrome: you buy a new home, excited about all the possibilities. You take out those gross cabinets in the kitchen, slap down some temporary flooring, install makeshift plywood counters, and pledge to actually do the kitchen up right "soon." Weeks go by and turn into years. Then suddenly you're jarred awake by a major life event and when you walk into the kitchen, you wonder how you've been able to stand it all these years.
Craig and Katie Webster experienced just that when they moved into their California home. Craig partially demolished the kitchen and kept meaning to finish the job and remodel it to perfection, but something else always got in the way, and suddenly the couple and their dog Maggie were expecting a baby. It was time to knuckle down and get the job done, so they called a Los Angeles-area contractor and got to work.
They didn't have to do a whole lot of major remodeling, thankfully. Two big changes needed to happen, though. The first was widening the opening to the kitchen to help it connect with the house more, which is a great tip for remodeling in general, especially with older, smaller homes and bungalows. Instead of letting a home stay compartmentalized and cramped, open it up! It will feel more light and airy, all without actually paying for an addition. They added some charming molding and trim to the wider opening to get it feeling even more expansive, and keep it in character with the house.
The next thing the couple did, which was super smart, was close off a window that overlooked the neighbor's driveway. Blech, what a view, right? Not only did closing off the window change the look and feel of the kitchen (which still retained lots of light with the existing windows and wider opening into the house), it also allowed the couple to use the floorplan of the kitchen more efficiently. Again without an addition, they managed to create more room by rearranging their appliances and cabinets. Pretty clever, right?
They also put in a kitchen island, which is another very smart design decision that works the kitchen triangle. Islands create a fantastic workspace, and more than that, they add easily-accessible storage. If you have room for an island, definitely consider adding one, although you'll have to think long and hard about countertop options (they went for soapstone). Stone can be great if you work with a lot of pastry, but you might want butcher's block for a broad chopping surface. Either way, commit to maintaining your island with periodic applications of mineral oil to keep it looking beautiful.
Under the direction of designer Dana Jones, they added some mid-budget cabinets, but they dressed them up with molding and beadboard. A few of the cabinets were left with glassed doors for display, and to lighten up the kitchen. Great storage for the kitchen at an affordable price? Yes please! They also added some clever touches like an accordion door for hiding countertop appliances such as the blender and toaster, and an adorable dog feeding station for their pooch.
The end result is a crisp, beautiful kitchen in shades of blue and white that fits perfectly with the style and tone of their home while also being totally fun to be in. Finally, they can bring guests over without feeling awkward about the kitchen, and they have a great workspace to cook lots of happy family meals in. And, of course, their clever remodel adds value to their home, which makes it a win-win for basically everyone.
Remodeling projects like this are a team effort, involving not just the contractor but plumbers, electricians, and other skilled building professionals. While a kitchen remodel can get costly very fast, this couple found a way to keep their costs low without compromising on the finished look and style. Kudos, and may you enjoy your fabulous kitchen for years to come!

text: Police in West Virginia schools a hot topic By Mackenzie Mays December 22, 2012 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Local boards of education can make a significant impact on school safety, especially when it comes to recruiting police officers to patrol campus, officials say.With major cuts to federal funding over the years, only 64 of West Virginia's more than 800 public schools have a prevention resource officer patrolling the halls. None of those are elementary schools.About a third of those officers are locally funded, while the rest are supported by about $800,000 in federal grants that were awarded to the state in 2012, according to the West Virginia Division of Justice & Community Services.Leslie Boggess, deputy director of the division, said the schools with PROs in the building are "the lucky ones," and since the program started 15 years ago, requests for an officer have dramatically increased while funding has decreased."It's safe to say that having an officer in the school is better than not having an officer there. It would be wonderful if we could have them in every school, but we don't have any control over the federal budget," Boggess said. "We recommend looking to local funds. Your local school board is always the safest place to go, but county commissions and others will probably be willing to contribute. Federal grants are continuing to decrease."PROs are not only trained to respond to dangerous school situations, but also provide mentoring services and talk to students about issues such as underage drinking and drug abuse. 'Hard to gauge'Just because only 64 of the state's police officers are certified PROs, though, doesn't necessarily mean that only 64 schools have a police presence. The number of school resource officers, whose role in schools is for security only, is "hard to gauge," Boggess said.The state used to receive federal grants from Community Oriented Policing Services for those positions. When that money stopped coming in, some officers were maintained locally and others weren't, she said.Only four West Virginia police officers are listed as active in the National School Resource Officers database."West Virginia has one of the very lowest numbers. I don't know if we have any state with a lower number of active officers," said Janet Hyatt, a representative with the NSRO, the country's largest organization dedicated to training school-based law enforcement officers.While that could mean West Virginia has a small police presence in schools, it also could mean there are a number of SROs who haven't been properly trained through the NSRO or trained to serve in public schools at all, Hyatt said. "There's training out there that we don't approve of," she said. "You could have many SROs in your state, [but] they just aren't registered with us."Since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut, President Obama has called for a review of the country's school safety and gun control laws. On Friday, the National Rifle Association asked Congress to provide funding for armed security guards in every school as soon as next month. In an op-ed published in The Washington Post on Friday, Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., wrote that he wants to bring the entertainment, gun and mental-health communities together to talk about preventing mass violence.He cautioned that, if the Obama administration takes "a guns-first approach without addressing the other factors at play, we will be no closer to resolving this problem than we were in the days before the horror in Newtown."In the op-ed, Manchin also proposed a national commission on mass violence that could conduct public hearings and would "have teeth," like the 9/11 Commission."Since the funding dried up . . . police have been in and out of middle schools and high schools," Boggess said. "I don't know if anyone is really keeping track of that. There may be a lot of officers in schools that aren't with our agency -- some full time, some part time. I have a strong suspicion there will be a lot more, though."Still, Boggess knows that elementary schools aren't a priority. "Sometimes, officers may go into elementary schools if there's time to do some sort of presentation or just to visit. So, there's some correspondence," she said, "but these programs aren't designed to be utilized in elementary schools, and they rarely are." At the Legislature's request, the state Department of Education is to provide, by August, a consistent statewide crisis-response plan for schools that is easily accessible to emergency personnel.Ron Stephens, executive director of the National School Safety Center, said that while some states mandate school safety policies, local school systems could make a big difference on their own."You don't have to have a law passed to exercise common sense and good judgment," he said. "Education is a federal concern, a state function and a local responsibility. So the local school district determines much of what is done operationally in the schools."The Legislature appropriated $30 million over the past three years for county school systems to implement physical safety measures, which include security cameras, card-access entrances, extra exterior doors and locking devices.That is the best thing school systems can do, Stephens said."In terms of school safety, you begin with reasonable steps. You have to ask what reasonable steps can be taken and go through with them. And what has happened certainly suggests the importance of taking those steps," he said. "But, in Connecticut, the man shot through the access-control entrance."Even if you have all these things in place, there's no guarantee you'll prevent 100 percent of crime. There are fences that can be easy to climb."The National School Safety Center helped train thousands of school resource officers with the COPS grants provided by the U.S. Department of Justice, but those programs "have been beaten up by the budget," Stephens said."They have significantly reduced. I hope they'll be reactivated, because this is a situation of how vulnerable our schools are. This is a whole new level of exposure," he said. "But local districts are revisiting their safety and security practices. It's happening all over the country."Kanawha County schools are doing just that. Kanawha school effortsBev Jarrett, director of safety for Kanawha County Schools, met last week with school administrators and law enforcement to revisit a variety of questions.Do all schools have a consistent plan so that emergency personnel know what to do? Should teachers and students hide or evacuate in an intruder situation? What happens at an elementary level?Jarrett's title was even changed to "director of safety and security" last week as a way to streamline the system. Before, security responsibilities were split among several administrators."In light of what happened in Connecticut, there are bound to be some changes in everyone's plan. We need to make sure something like that couldn't happen here. The very best thing is to have an armed guard in the schools," Jarrett said. "We need a better presence than we have, and it will be a budgeting issue. I'm hoping the federal government comes through with more funding."The Charleston Police Department has vowed to increase its patrols at schools because of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Newtown, Conn. "We're not worried about anything, to be honest with you," Charleston police Sgt. Bobby Eggleton said at a news conference early last week. "We just want to make sure that the public out there is secure in thinking the police department is there, because we are there. We just want to have a more active presence. We're acting before we react."I'm sure . . . from the federal level, they will be asking us to do things," he said, "and whatever they say, we'll do. I'm sure the chief and mayor will have recommendations for us, too."Reach Mackenzie Mays at email@example.com or 304-348-4814.

What is Empowerment? Our Principal's Visit to Fair Trade USA in Colombia
by Ana Zacapa
We often hear the term empowerment, but wonder what it really actually means. When I recently visited Skoll Awardee Fair Trade USA in northern Colombia, I saw it firsthand.
Landless workers, who used to be the poorest of the poor, with little expectation for improvement, now professional, opinionated, strategic partners of a large farm in the Urabá region. It's all thanks to their hard work and the connection that Fair Trade makes to markets and consumers willing to pay just a bit more. Called Bananeras de Urabá, it's a 660 hectare farm employing 580 farmers.
It was reassuring to hear the farm owner, a Colombian woman now in her 60′s, say that certifying her farm was a business decision that resulted in positive returns: economic gains, increased productivity, worker retention, product differentiation and brand. Most importantly, this experience with Fair Trade is making it clear for her how critical it is to have a long-term perspective of sustainability for her business.
Bananeras de Urabá's workers don't own land, and don't belong to cooperatives. But they have benefitted from the production of Fair Trade-certified bananas for more than five years. Conditions in traditional banana farms that I have seen in places like Honduras are harsh: labor intensive work in humidity above 90 degrees, unsafe practices for harvesting and separating the bananas, low wages, and more.
There is nothing you can do about the weather, but everything else was different here – safe working conditions, nice uniforms, beautiful eating areas and restrooms and airy packaging facilities with salsa music playing. While all of this is great, what captured for me the impact of Fair Trade and the concept of empowerment was the hour-and-a-half long conversation that we had with the farm's Fair Trade Committee, composed of eight members: six worker representatives and two management members (representing the owners of the farm). The discussion was incredible – farm workers strongly stating their points of view, at times different than management's, and sharing how they manage the Fair Trade social premium for housing, education and community infrastructure projects. It was powerful to see how these social programs are run like companies by a farmer member representative, with criteria, democratic decision-making processes, opportunity cost analysis, budgeting and planning.
Now that I am back in my Skoll Foundation office in Palo Alto, I think fondly on my wonderful journey to Colombia and know that my experience speaks to the potential of expanding Fair Trade to more and more farmers across the world.

You Won't Believe It's Not Blood: 5 Synthetic Substitutes for the Real Thing
Ants rank with beavers as some of the best-known architects of the animal world. Ants build the elaborate colony structure by hollowing out the area with their mandibles, grain by grain. Unless the soil dries out dramatically, the chambers will keep their form. But how ants manage to construct such well-planned underground structures remains a mystery, according to ant expert Walter Tschinkel of Florida State University.
"They do this without a blueprint, without a leader and in total darkness," Tschinkel says. To get a glimpse of the elaborate systems of passageways that ants build underground, Tschinkel makes casts of ant colonies, pouring molten metal, paraffin wax, or orthodontic plaster into the hollows and then excavating the result. "You can see that there is a structure in relation to depth," Tschinkel says, observing that the ant colonies have most of their chambers closest to the surface, with smaller, more spaced-out chambers farther away. "To do that, the ants have to know where they are in relation to the surface," he says. How they do it remains unknown, but Tschinkel's hypothesis is that ants can gauge depth by sensing the carbon dioxide content in the soil (he found that the amount of carbon dioxide increases with depth).
The sociable weaver builds a nest that looks from a distance like a giant haystack that's fallen into a tree. But these African birds are expert architects, using a variety of different materials to create their lofted apartment block. They use larger sticks to create the basic structure, framing the nest atop their preferred foundation—a utility pole or a tree with high branches. Instead of drywall, they gather dry grasses to form the boundaries of the individual rooms, and line each chamber of the nest with softer grasses and fibers. There can be hundreds of nesting chambers in the larger nest structure, enough to accommodate the entire colony of birds. The largest nests are home to up to 400 birds. Sociable weavers also install a security system; sharp straw spikes line each entrance to keep away predators. They need them: Other birds, including birds of prey, will take advantage of the sociable weaver's building skills and construct their nests on top of the structure.

The Ultimate IMAP component is a part of the Mail Component which offers a comprehensive interface for downloading e-mail messages from a server
and managing your mailbox remotely, all from within your application.
In addition, it also allows you to compose, decrypt, encrypt, sign, and validate email messages.
If you only need the Xamarin Android, iOS and .NET CF version, visit IMAP Library for Mobile for more details.
The IMAP component offers a comprehensive interface for IMAP, providing the developer with everything required
to incorporate mail management tasks in an application as listed below:
Ultimate IMAP is also included in the following suites which are bundles that include many additional .NET components:
When designing the IMAP component, our forcus is on ease-of-use, performance, reliability, and flexibility. As a benefit, it is not necessary for the user to have
a deep knowledge of how the IMAP protocol is implemented and how to read, encrypt, decrypt, sign and validate a message; IMAP component does all the hard works for you.
The following is a list of some key MIME and S/MIME features:
The Ultimate IMAP component provides industry standard security using the
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols.
Our components support strong, commercial grade encryption, and we do not rely on any third-party toolkits which have licensing
restrictions or are encumbered by patents. By setting a single property or option, the component automatically handles
all of the complex certificate management, protocol negotiation and encryption. Even advanced options, such as using client
certificates, are handled easily with just a few lines of code.
Ultimate IMAP provides full support for Proxy Servers such as HTTP CONNECT,
SOCKS4, SOCKS4A, and SOCKS5. By simply setting a few properties, you are
able to download, upload, and manage email messages and mailboxes from IMAP servers through the desired proxy server, providing
your application with the greatest flexibility and highest level of security available.
IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), the next-generation protocol designed by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force),
will gradually replace the current version of the Internet Protocol, IPv4.
With Ultimate IMAP Component, users have an integrated service assurance solution that
will provide them with IMAP, and Proxy capabilities in mixed IPv4 and IPv6 environments.
This helps organizations with the adoption of and the transition to IPv6 by making the management of such networks seamless.
By using 100% managed code written in C#, the Ultimate IMAP component
takes advantage of the numerous built-in features of the .NET Framework to enhance
performance. Moreover, the component is CLS compliant, and it does not use
any unsafe blocks for minimal permission requirements. In addition, the component is highly compatible with Microsoft ClickOnce.
In addition, it is also possible to use the component in
PowerShell - Microsoft's new command console and scripting language.
Ultimate IMAP is fully compatible with Visual Studio 2005 to 2013 (.NET 2.0 to .NET 4.5.1). A benefit of using our products is that you are always up-to-date with Microsoft's latest technologies.
Most applications written with the IMAP component will be synchronous.
The synchronous method provides you ease-of-use, but it can only return the control
back to the caller after it has finished, meaning that it blocks the execution of
the caller for a period of time. Using the synchronous method is recommended when you
only need to execute one IMAP operation at a time.
You might decide that your design requires an asynchronous operation when it needs
to manage multiple email messages simultaneously. Powerful asynchronous methods provide this capability.
The asynchronous method is executed on a thread separate from the calling
thread. Such operation is useful when an IMAP operation is time-consuming
and other codes need to execute without waiting for the initial operation to complete.
In addition, the user interface will be most responsive when asynchronous methods
are used.
The IMAP component has been designed with a great degree of flexibility
and can be used with a wide variety of programming languages and different types
of development environments. Available as a managed .NET class, it is fully supported
by languages such as Visual Basic, Visual C#, J#, Managed C++,
Borland C# Builder, and Delphi.
As important as functionality, features and stability are, comprehensive documentation
is equally as important to the application developer. This is why the ComponentPro
IMAP for .NET product includes a Developer's Guide and a complete Technical
Reference which documents every property, method and event supported by
the component. A printable version of the documentation is included with the product,
as well as context-sensitive online help which can be accessed directly from within
the development environment.
In addition to the fully documented Developer's Guide and a complete Technical Reference,
Ultimate IMAP component also includes a number of samples with
full source code which help you become familiar with the features of
the component and provide code which you can re-use in your own applications.
The setup package contains three complete IMAP client applications: IMAP Console Client, IMAP WinForms Client, and IMAP WebForms Client.
ComponentPro understands today's software development requirements which often require
support for multiple operating systems and different programming languages. As with
all ComponentPro components, the product is licensed to a single developer, and
applications built using the IMAP component can be redistributed to as many end-users as
needed without additional royalties or runtime licensing fees. Developers
are also permitted to install the product on different development systems as long
as they are the only one using it and there is no chance that it can be used by
more than one developer at the same time.

Just when you thought the Arkansas head coach firing/interim hiring/interim fiasco couldn't get worse, it did.
Surprisingly, it came from the one man who looked so good when this all began—and now looks like he's in over his head.
Hogs athletic director Jeff Long said Wednesday at the Northwest Arkansas Touchdown Club that he'd "listen" to interested coaches who called him.
There are so many things wrong with that statement, including but not limited to:
— If a current coach at another school calls about the Arkansas job, is that really the kind of coach Long would listen to? Any coach who is currently under contract—as a head coach or assistant coach—should not be calling about job prospects during a season.
Because if he's calling this time—I can't believe I have to explain this—what's to say he won't be calling the next time a better job opens up while he's your coach?
— If I'm Long's boss, I'm on the horn right now explaining, in no uncertain terms, that his job is to find a coach. Not open it up to all comers.
"I'm not actively reaching out to them," Long said at the Quarterback Club. "It's not an appropriate time to do that, and there is plenty of time to do that at the end of the season."
Now that we've got that straightened out, let's look at the top three coaches who should call Long—after their seasons are complete:
1. Sonny Dykes, Louisiana Tech: A terrific offensive mind and a smooth personality. Nothing will faze him—not even the nuthouse of the last six months in Fayetteville. There's no coincidence that it started going downhill at Arizona for Mike Stoops once Dykes left for his first head coaching job at LaTech.
Dykes has a Heisman Trophy candidate at quarterback (Colby Cameron), and a team that just might win every game.
2. Kirby Smart, Alabama defensive coordinator: He has a good gig now, he gets paid like a head coach and he's winning championships. In other words, he can be choosy. But don't kid yourself, Arkansas is an elite job—and not one he'd pass up. The Nick Saban coaching tree has been hit (Will Muschamp) and miss (Derek Dooley), and Saban has raved about Smart's coaching acumen and ability to relate to players.
3. Pete Carroll, Seattle Seahawks: Yeah, it's a pipedream. And it probably is going to take an utter collapse by the Seahawks this season. But Carroll is as competitive as it gets, and where else would it make better sense than to return to the college game than in the toughest conference—all while trailing the two (Alabama, LSU) strongest programs in the nation.
You made USC a monster, Pete. Now let's see what you can do at Arkansas—while trading blows with two other heavyweights (and the rest of the SEC).

Braun continues to work way through thumb injury
CHICAGO -- Ryan Braun's nerve issues with his right thumb have been well chronicled, particularly during the second half of the season.
The slugging outfielder has seen his batting average dip from .298 to .274 since the All-Star break, and he's been hitting .160 (4-for-25) during the team's season-high seven-game losing streak.
"It is ongoing," manager Ron Roenicke said of Braun's thumb issues Tuesday. "There's times when he feels really good. You can tell it in batting practice, then he usually takes it into ballgames. But there's times where it's just sore and the swings aren't what he's used to. Now he tries to adjust. ... Now all of a sudden he gets out of whack."
Roenicke didn't rule out moving Braun from his customary spot in the three-hole, but that the lack of power in the Brewers' lineup currently has given no incentive to do so.
"We'll see," Roenicke said. "The problem is right now is that we don't have anybody who's really just crushing the ball. ... We need to have some guys swinging it well, so that when you make a move, you feel good about making a move."
