Scotland's poet laureate Robert Burns penned the famous words to "Auld Lang Syne" more than 200 years ago. On New Year's, millions raised their glasses and sang his famous words. The meaning of those three words translates roughly to "for the sake of old times."
Perhaps a snippet of another one of Burn's poems "A Man's A Man for All That" and the wishes of many respected and beloved members of our community have more relevance than questioning whether to recall old acquaintances, as we welcome what will undoubtedly be a richly complex and challenging New Year.
Sheriff Tom Allman
"As the new year brings national concerns about the "Fiscal Cliff' and some rogue countries developing nuclear weapons, my thoughts are much more local. I hope that we continue to see a slight increase in the economy in Mendocino County; 2012 witnessed some slow economic growth and this is exactly what we needed. One-and-a-half to two percent growth in our tourism and local production is what we need to experience as we slowly dig out from the economic downturn. As our economy improves, the Sheriff's Office will be able to fill more of our resident deputy positions in the remote areas of our county. This will be the best news of 2013.
"Also, our deputies and other county employees took a 10 percent pay reduction two years ago. It will be a great day when we can return this 10 percent back to the employees who are taking on a larger workload. Our work force is two-thirds of the size that it was three years ago, yet we are still delivering the same quality service as before.
"My personal wish for 2013? I hope that the new year brings us more clarification on the confusing marijuana laws. Law enforcement will continue to enforce laws, but it will be a great day when the state and federal courts all agree on what the laws are. Domestic violence education and methamphetamine enforcement and education are two areas where I hope the Sheriff's Office can spend more time. Happy New Year Mendocino County; let's make this the best year ever!"
Dan Hamburg
Mendocino County Supervisor, Fifth District
"May I be so bold as to wish for the Giants to make it three out of four? I'm looking forward to making progress on improving the sustainability of our economy. We need to focus on the "eco' part, promoting local food and energy. And, of course, we need to strongly support our local businesses and our neighbors who run them."
David Eyster
District Attorney
"May all who live in Mendocino County continue to experience the reality that this is a very special and safe place to live, work, and, most importantly, raise families. My staff and I will continue to focus on enhancing local public safety through effective prosecution."
Jim Moorehead
chairman of Broadband Alliance
of Mendocino County
"The well-organized and tightly focused Broadband Alliance of Mendocino County more than wishes we are optimistically expecting approval of a CPUC grant application to build the first of a series of broadband deployment projects, which will bring high-speed Internet to many people in the county who are currently suffering with poor or no access to the Internet. Our wish is to light up Mendocino County with much-needed broadband services to all who need it."
Jim Mayfield
Board of directors president
The Community Foundation
of Mendocino County
"I wish that our community could work together creating a place where my children and grandchildren can thrive. I wish for a community focus on economic development, where new generations develop skills they need, to build a place, where our next generation will flourish."
Dina Polkinghorne executive director
Project Sanctuary
"My wish for 2013 is for less family violence in our community. That and a year of no major repairs for our tired, 102-year-old safe house would be fantastic."
James Welch
Special Olympics of Mendocino County
"A wish of our athletes for the year of 2013 is to acquire new basketball and softball uniforms. The athletes have used the current ones for approximately eight or nine years. In this same amount of time the participation has also doubled, with no additions to our supply of uniforms."
Miles Gordon
project coordinator
North Coast
The Gardens Project
"I wish to see our community continue to honor the values of compassion, hard work, and justice that previous generations have nurtured within us, while we work to create a community that is both vibrant and resilient for our generations to come."
Erica Cooperrider executive director
Mendocino Access Television
"My wish for the New Year is to bring the voices of local youth to our public access station. We have lots of exciting ideas for teaching students how to make three-minute movies, short newscasts, music videos, etc. We dropped our student membership price to just $5 per year and I am working with the Mendocino County Alliance for Arts Education in their program to keep arts education in local schools. I look forward to helping students develop some vibrant programming on our station."
Lavonna Silveria executive director
Ukiah Senior Center
"I wish a deep-down sense of peace and to hold on to the faith of goodness. We all have the power to make a positive difference in others' lives. Taking care of ourselves, our families and our community is an empowering way to live."
Scott Cratty
Ukiah Farmers
Market manager
"An optimistic wish for 2013 is that we roll up our sleeves and see what we can do to make this a more resilient, happy, competent community. "Wait for them' to do it, and they will just get it wrong anyhow. And, let's try to be kind to each other while we do it."
Phil Baldwin
Ukiah City Council
"Here's wishing Americans see the link between gun massacres at home and our nation's endless promotion of weaponry, war and violent regime change abroad: Iran, Guatemala, Cuba, Vietnam, Cambodia, Chile, Nicaragua, Grenada, Panama, Iraq I, Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq II, Libya, Syria. Here's hoping, too, that we demand our President stop ordering drone killings from above poor nations."

I have been eating at Season 52 restaurants for many years. The food is great and I have never gotten sick.
Superb GF food. Great flat breads too.
Good selection o GF menu. They had one cider that tasted like apple pie which was not the best. Other that I'd rate it high.
3 Oakbrook Center, Oak Brook, IL 60523
They are celiac friendly. However we've been in here 4 times and each time service was awful
340 Ward Pkwy, Kansas City, MO 64112
Safe meal, but I did not enjoy myself here. I don't like legalistic adherence to the words "Gluten Sensitive" as opposed to "Gluten Free." My meal was handed to me as "gluten sensitive chicken." LOL. My guests, who eat "normal" food, were underwhelmed by the amount and quality of their dinners. Food took 45 minutes to come out. Normally I'm not picky when restaurants make an effort to accommodate me safely, but the attitude felt grudging, the food was mediocre for the up-scale marketing, and the bill was too high for what we were served.
321 Miracle Mile, Coral Gables, FL 33134
Good food and safe. The GF Flat Bread is great.
7700 W Sand Lake Rd, Orlando, FL 32836
Had salad and the blistered peppers. They were tasty. Service was great. The waiter attentive to my gf needs. Had the raspberry cannoli for dessert (minus the cannoli). Very thick and sweet.
410 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ 08807
Separate gluten free menu. Staff very knowledgeable about gluten free needs I like that it is no big deal for them. Food is very good - salads are fresh and actually delicious. Dessert was awesome.
6 Wayside Rd, Burlington, MA 01803
Food was at least 4 stars (slightly too salty in my opinion), but the service was awful. She only checked in on us once, never asked if we needed refills. We waited for 20 plus mins after finishing our meal for our waitress (finally flagged down another waiter). Then noticed an error on the bill, 10 minutes of looking for waitress again, and the manager came and fixed the bill and gave us a coupon for free apps. Sigh. The sweet potato mash was quite tasty.
90 Perimeter Center W, Dunwoody, GA 30346
I've been there several times and never gotten sick. I agree with others the gf selection is limited. I wish they had the seasonal options and more on it but overall I'm happy.
11611 Ellison Wilson Rd, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33408
Had the most delicious, safe meal here! GF flatbreads are yum and every entree on the GF menu is a winner. Perfect spot for a nicer night out to dinner
410 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ 08807
The food was great. HOWEVER I did get glutened there tonight. As I am keeled over the toilet I am sure it was from the flat bread pizza which they claimed was gluten free however failed to mention that the "special tin" they cook it in is exposed to the rest of the oven where they cook wheat pizza. So basically I'm screwed for tonight. Don't eat the flat bread pizza if u are celiac
204 NW Shore Blvd, Tampa, FL 33609
First and last time we go here! Separate gluten "sensitive" menu listing items prepared without gluten provided. Waitress very knowledgeable and kind. Checked with chef to ensure items ordered were gluten free or modified to be gluten free but... kitchen still managed to gluten me somehow. Almost $200 for dinner, after dinner plans canceled, home puking. Thanks Seasons 52 for a horrific and memorable evening.
630 Old Country Rd, Garden City, NY 11530
Very happy with the service n the food because I have celiac disease n the food was great 👍
11611 Ellison Wilson Rd, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33408
I called ahead to see if they could keep a celiac safe, and the hostess told me they take food allergies seriously. They definitely do! Her mother has celiac disease so she knew what I needed. She asked what time I wanted a reservation so that she could let the chef know. When we arrived, it was already noted in the system I was a celiac, and the chef was notified I was there. When the waitress showed up at the table, she was already aware there was a celiac at the table, and told me how my food would be handled. Excellent food! Excellent service! I have never felt so at ease eating out. The GF menu has a variety of food to choose from. It was really hard to pick! I had a flatbread appetizer offered in a GF version and it was excellent along with the salad that I picked. I wish this restaurant was in my home town.
3535 US-1, Princeton, NJ 08540
The server was caught in a lie, swearing my GF flatbread meal was GF. She "swore" (her word) she watched the kitchen make it. I asked to see the ticket. Asked her why the order didn't specify GF or the $2 GF charge. She said it was my lucky day, she wouldn't correct that charge. Manager saw the interaction and came over after this went on for minuets. Thankfully SHE was honest. She took one look and said my order was actually not GF! I would have been sick for days. I can never trust Seasons 52 again. I previously loved their GF offerings.
3050 Peachtree Rd NW, Atlanta, GA 30305
Wonderful food! Dedicated gluten-free menu, and they will prepare a gluten-free dessert! Great atmosphere and service.
3333 Bristol St, Costa Mesa, CA 92626
Great place, I've eaten here a few times and they're always attentive to keeping everything separated. Lots of great options too!
3 Oakbrook Center, Oak Brook, IL 60523
I have been many times and it's always a good experience.
3 Oakbrook Center, Oak Brook, IL 60523
Extensive gluten free menu but I got glutened badly. I suspect cross contamination.
630 Old Country Rd, Garden City, NY 11530
The waitress rolled her eyes when I asked about kitchen segregation, I said 'I'm sorry, I just need to be careful - I get really sick." She gave the "we deal with PLENTY of food allergies.." If I had a dollar for every time I got that kind of response and then had problems... So I ordered a salad.
2000 Rte 38, Cherry Hill, NJ 08002
Expanded menu . Delicious gf flatbreads. Waiters announce gluten free food as they serve so no confusion!
8650 Keystone Crossing, Indianapolis, IN 46240
The chef & staff of Seasons 52 were willing to work with me to create a meal that met my dietary restrictions. I called ahead & they were very helpful & understanding. Also they have gluten free flatbreads that are delicious!!
1770 E Higgins Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60173
Delicious soups, flatbreads, steak and cannoli :D
1689 Arden Way, Sacramento, CA 95815
Very good, fresh choices. Separate menu, staff knowledgeable.
11414 Rockville Pike, North Bethesda, MD 20852
They have an entire gluten-free menu. But there's no need to feel it's your only choice. On the night we ate there, their featured dish was gluten-free. Plus, if you're into flatbreads, they have a yummy gluten-free crust that can be pared with any of their versions.
7700 W Sand Lake Rd, Orlando, FL 32836
Food was yummy, waiter was friendly but even though I questioned him on everything, especially when he said he could add chicken to my salad, I STILL GOT SICK! I told him to please triple check and make sure the chicken wasn't marinated. If it wasn't, go ahead and add it to my salad. So when I got it, I figured I was ok. Ha! Plus they added $6.50 to my $10 salad for chicken! It's 3 days later and I'm still recovering.
1770 E Higgins Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60173
actual gf menu. brought my girlfriend who is gluten free and she loved it. a decent amount of options and wonderful atmosphere/waitstaff. needless to say we will be back
6085 Poplar Avenue, Memphis, TN 38119
Excellent gluten free menu. One of my favorite places. It's the only place I can eat flatbread because of their gluten free crust.
463 E Altamonte Dr, Altamonte Springs, FL 32701
They have a gluten-free menu. Our waitress was very knowledgeable due to a family member with celiac.
410 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ 08807
Cousin and I both have Celiacs and ate here without reaction. Great options and great service.
410 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ 08807
It made me a little nervous to see "gluten sensitive" as I have celiacs and am highly sensitive. However, the server was very patient and went back to speak to the kitchen. They ensured me the flatbread was made all separate and it was AMAZING!! My husband and I split 2 and he said he couldn't believe it was gluten free. The service was implacable and the food delicious. Highly recommend. Will be back.
4410 Westheimer Rd, Houston, TX 77027
Seasons 52 has an extensive gluten-free menu. For appetizers the restaurant offers flat breads on a gluten free dough. Entrees include fish, lamb, and chicken. If you want steak, the chef can prepare a steak without the sauce. The dessert menu has a gluten free cannoli without the crust.
11414 Rockville Pike, North Bethesda, MD 20852
They don't have a separate menu, but the chef came out to have a conversation with me and then went to his kitchen and created a wonderful meal that accommodated multiple food sensitivities.
7863L Tysons Corner, McLean, VA 22102
Very gourmet options on the dedicated gluten free menu. The restaurant is very large with separate dining rooms in the back that can be closed off for private parties. Our server, Philip, was efficient, attentive and helpful with regard to gluten free options. The food was very good. My husband, not gluten free, was very impressed too. He and I shared a flatbread. He plans to come back when in the area on business.
6 Wayside Rd, Burlington, MA 01803
Disorganized place that is okay for a gluten allergy but not a combination of different allergies. For instance, I have a dairy and gluten intolerance. When we spoke on the phone they informed me that they could accommodate me. Unfortunately, they presented me a flatbread that they claimed was df (and gf) and had sour cream. It was only after I took a bite that I realized it wasn't. The manager was extremely rude and did not apologize, rather she blamed the server who couldn't do enough to help me. She did not seem like she wanted to help. My final meal was safe and tasted good. They say that they can make almost any dish gluten and dairy free. However, I would be willing to try another location but I will not be returning back, to Burlington's, for a while due to a fear that my food might not be okay for me to eat what they serve me.
1770 E Higgins Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60173
Great GF menu/options, lovely atmosphere, wonderful service.
3050 Peachtree Rd NW, Atlanta, GA 30305
Separate gluten-free menu. Staff is knowledgeable of food preparation.
340 Ward Pkwy, Kansas City, MO 64112
I love this place! The staff are knowledge. I've eaten at the KC location several times and I've never had a reaction.
410 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ 08807
Food was great, willing to make food however I wanted it to be done, be that gluten and or dairy free. Just let the waitress or waiter know and you will be in good hands. Food is pricey but fresh and it's worth it. All the employees seemed very nice as well.
5096 Big Island Drive, Jacksonville, FL 32246
Love eating here. I have never been contaminated at this restaurant.
2000 Rte 38, Cherry Hill, NJ 08002
There only GF options for dessert is are -GF canolli WITHOUT shell or -fruit Seriously, they aren't trying for desert. Also menu flagged as "gluten-sensitive"...
410 Commons Way, Bridgewater, NJ 08807
Went here for dinner tonight. The waitress was very knowledgeable and when my food was brought out they also knew it was gluten free. Going on 30 minutes with no pain, so I'm going with a very safe review! Delicious and my boyfriend who's not GF loved his meal!
160 N Gulph Rd, King of Prussia, PA 19406
good, healthy food. excellent service. good ambiance - not bustling but not somber. seemed very knowledgeable about gf.
789 W Harbor Drive, San Diego, CA 92101
I've been here 5 times and it's been great each time. They have a seasonal menu that changes with the seasons and the gluten free menu changes as well. The watermelon salad on the summer menu is amazing. I had wanted a side dish that was a special on the regular menu and the chef found a way to prepare it gluten free for me. I've always had great service here.
789 W Harbor Drive, San Diego, CA 92101
Like the other ratings say. Good food but bad service. Very slow. Menu is wheat free but definitely not gluten free. People need to start understanding the difference.
789 W Harbor Drive, San Diego, CA 92101
Good food. Not good service.
6 Wayside Rd, Burlington, MA 01803
My son has celiac and absolutely loved the flatbread.
245 Summit Boulevard, Birmingham, AL 35243
Sunday 6/5 I had a nice meal with my husband at Seasons 52 in Birmingham. We chose this restaurant specifically for it's gluten sensitive menu, as I have celiac disease. Upon meeting our waitress I let her know that I have celiac disease (and explained what I couldn't have), I already had the gluten sensitive menu in my hand.We ordered the Ahi Tuna Tartare. While ordering, I asked about the crisp that comes with it. The waitress told me that the crisp was gluten sensitive but that it was not gluten free. She said that nothing in the restaurant is gluten free. (I made the mistake of not pursuing this further, and will be instead asking questions to corporate to clarify this issue.) Since she stated that the crisp is not in-fact gluten free, I asked for the crisp on the side, so my husband could have it, but not potentially cross-contaminate me.The Ahi Tartare was great, love it.I also enjoyed the shrimp and grits (gluten sensitive menu also).When the check came, we were charged an upcharge for the gluten sensitive crisp, which I couldn't even eat. The gluten sensitive menu has many options. I'm very happy to have it.My issue with this restaurant is the unsureness of the gluten free status of the food. Apparently, there is no gluten ingredients used. However, the waitress said there is no gluten free food. Which is it? As a celiac, I need to know if this restaurant is safe toeat at. I hope that corporate will respond to me and I'll be able to update this review.
4505 La Jolla Village Drive #1, San Diego, CA 92122
Miserable fail at this restaurant. They have a gluten sensitive menu and it is essentially parts of the regular menu and it tells you how to order it to be gluten free. For example: soup (order without the roll). I ordered pork loin without the au jus. Plate came with au jus all over it. Server from the kitchen had no idea if plate was gluten free. Waiter came over and took plate back to the kitchen. Apparently the chef felt bad that I couldn't have au jus and took it upon herself to make gluten free au jus unbeknownst to anyone else. The waiter wrote on the ticket NO au jus. No one was quite sure if I could eat it or not. I completely lost trust in their system and watched my husband eat his dinner instead. Manager came over and agreed that protocol was not followed and she was unclear why. Would not trust to order there again.
789 W Harbor Drive, San Diego, CA 92101
sehr fein. absolut zu empfehlen. alles top
160 N Gulph Rd, King of Prussia, PA 19406
Great tasting food and everyone I spoke to was very GF knowledgeable. I wish there were more GF desserts but the one dessert they do have taste great. Great food, very friendly employees, and atmosphere .
340 Ward Pkwy, Kansas City, MO 64112
Menu was titled "gluten sensitive" since there is a shared kitchen. I did not get sick but I ordered simple.

Alright guys,
I have been messing around with different methods of dyeing discs.
Mainly, different formulas for making dye. I have always used RIT, but I know something better is out there.
Here is my request. Please list just the dye formula that you use, and if you have a pic of multiple colors, please provide as well so I can see the brightness of your dye.
If you boil your disc in the dye, please let me know you boil the disc.
If you just boil the dye, please let me know you just boil the dye.
If you apply cold or at room temp, then let me know.
If you bake the disc after you apply the dye, then let me know.
Just be as specific to your process for making the dye and then applying it as you can.
I have just ordered a good bit of different types of commercial dyes to test out, but i want to do a very unbiased experiment here and make several (read: 20+ different dye formulas) and then test them out and compare and contrast the results.
Seeing as I am making this a semi-group method, I will post the best dye formula that I have found.
Any and all help you can give would be appreciated.

Toyota ShareLunker 511 Thaws Winter's Grip on O.H. Ivie
ATHENS—O.H. Ivie Reservoir moved into striking distance of becoming the second-highest producer of 13-pound-plus bass with the catch of Toyota ShareLunker 511 on February 13.
Susan Dixon of Hawley, Texas, who spent her honeymoon on the lake, reeled in the 13.3-pound bass about 5:30 p.m. She was fishing with O.H. Ivie guide and friend Jeff Walker. "We were fishing a spot we hadn't fished in a long time," she said. "I was throwing a jig, and I was fixing to pull it in. She bit it on the way up."
Dixon was fishing in 15 feet of 44-degree water, and the fish did not pull hard at first. "But the more she pulled, the better it got," Dixon said. "I finally got her to where I saw her, and I couldn't believe it. It was just unreal. I've caught big fish before, but this was the ultimate. It was a wonderful feeling."
Dixon immediately took the fish to Elm Creek Village, an official Toyota ShareLunker weigh and holding station. After it was weighed she and Walker resumed fishing. "It's been over a year since I caught a double-digit fish," she said. "I know for a lot of people that's a big deal, but on Ivie, it's not that uncommon. Ivie is a wonderful place. I wish we could keep it a secret, but it's not a secret anymore."
It's also no secret that Dixon's catch is ShareLunker number 21 from the lake, which now trails only Lakes Fork, Sam Rayburn and Alan Henry in number of ShareLunkers produced. Ivie appears poised to surpass both Sam Rayburn's 23 fish and Alan Henry's 25 before the current season is over April 30. The number of big bass catches normally peaks in March, and last year O.H. Ivie produced two ShareLunkers on the final day of the season, including the current lake record of 16.08 pounds.
Anyone legally catching a 13-pound or bigger largemouth bass from Texas waters, public or private, between October 1 and April 30 may submit the fish to the Toyota ShareLunker program by calling program manager David Campbell at (903) 681-0550 or paging him at (888) 784-0600 and leaving a phone number including area code. Fish will be picked up by TPWD personnel within 12 hours.
Anglers entering fish into the Toyota ShareLunker program receive a free replica of their fish, a certificate and ShareLunker clothing and are recognized at a banquet at the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center in Athens.
For complete information and rules of the ShareLunker program, tips on caring for big bass, a list of official Toyota ShareLunker weigh and holding stations and a recap of last year's season, see tpwd.texas.gov/sharelunker. The site also includes a searchable database of all fish entered into the program along with pictures where available.
Information on current catches, including short videos of interviews with anglers when available, is posted on www.facebook.com/sharelunkerprogram.
The Toyota ShareLunker Program is made possible by a grant to the Texas Parks & Wildlife Foundation from Gulf States Toyota. Toyota is a long-time supporter of the Foundation and Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, providing major funding for a wide variety of education, fish, parks and wildlife projects.

I "thought" I added a comment earlier but I don't see it so here goes another one!!!
I had indentity theft committed against me last year by a black woman who lives in L.A. She and her companion, a black man also from L.A. were arrested at the Seattle airport when TSA became suspicious realizing that both had multiple indentities. They were carrying identities on at least 10 people, "each"....I was told by an FBI agent. The woman was incarcerated for "one year" and the man for two years! I say we should punish these people, who commit identity theft, to the fullest degree because they are destroying people's lives! With their light sentences these criminals will return to the same crime, which has become a very big problem in our country.
My husband also had identity theft committed against him several years ago and I can tell you it makes you feel violated and forces you to spend days, sometimes "weeks" cleaning up the mess that these criminals create for you.

I'm curious as to why you felt it important to say that the woman and man were "black"???? What's your point?
Sorry about what happened to you- but it sounds like you need to get out if your own way.

Identity theft is a violation that takes months and sometimes years to straighten out if it happens to you. There is no profile for the kind of criminal who commits this crime.
As a black woman, I too, am suspicious of your comment.

"Cookie" needs to get herself a new nickname. And it shouldn't have anything to do with sweets...

I would hope the paper would just remove her racist comments.

This is a pretty easy site to post on so I'd suggest that anyone offended by Cookie's blatant racism consider that she is demonstrably far from the sharpest arrow in the quiver; you have to take anyone who needs two tries to post something here with a pinch of salt.
But, as long as we are into profiling, I'm seeing an alarming pattern here. Fully 67% of these presumed criminals, (innocent until proven guilty), are women.
Now I'm no misogynist but I will be watching the women around here VERY carefully and, if my wife complains, I'll have a bullet-proof excuse ;-)

I thought Cookies comments were relevant. Identity theft can indeed be committed by anyone, including black people. You don't have to be white to steal another white person's identity.
Yes, black people commit crime as well. So as well do non-racist people.
Therefore I would get all bent out of shape becasue someone describes a person's color in their text. Take it with grain of salt.
No big deal.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

SAN FRANCISCO A 46-year-old Texas man died of an apparent heart attack Sunday in the frigid waters of the San Francisco Bay just moments after the start of the Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon, race officials said.
"We have reason to believe the gentleman suffered from a massive cardiac event as he entered the water and began the swim," race officials said in a statement.
The race was held three months earlier than in previous years and in far colder waters, but organizers said the temperature did not contribute to the death.
"Was it colder than normal? Yes. But in my opinion, the water temperature was not a factor at all in this tragedy," Bill Burke, the race's director, told the San Francisco Chronicle. "The gentleman obviously had a heart condition he was unaware of."
In all, the newspaper quotes Burke as saying, rescuers pulled about 150 competitors from the swimming leg of the race, more than triple the normal number.
The Chronicle also quotes him as saying the race was moved up this year because of conflicts with the America's Cup, and will return to June next year.
Organizers said the death was the first in the 33-year history of the event, which begins with a 1.5-mile swim from the island home of the former federal prison. The swimming portion is followed by an 18-mile bike ride and an 8-mile run through Golden Gate Park and along the San Francisco coast.
The race had participants from around the world ranging from 13 to 80 years old. The winner was Javier Gomez of Spain.
The triathlon's water safety team noticed the man in distress shortly after the start of the race, the statement said. They performed CPR while pulling him to shore and after reaching land, but he could not be revived.
The unidentified man, from Austin, was pulled from the water and CPR was performed, but he could not be revived.
"What happened today was very, very sad," Burke said. "It underscores that athletes need to be checked carefully by a cardiologist before pushing themselves."

'I was so moved. The next day I looked for a dance class for myself'
EUGENE, Ore. -- Danceability in Eugene stands alone as the only group involved in the state department's Arts Envoy Program that teaches dance to the disabled.
For Karen Daly, Danceability gave her a shot at a life changing experience.
"What it did for me was it brought me into my body in a way that I hadn't been," Daly said.
Karen lost her leg to cancer when she was 11 years old. Rather than letting her disability get in the way of enjoying activities, she began taking dance lessons 20 years ago.
Karen said the inspiration for dance came from seeing a disabled man perform on stage.
"The courage of that man I cried throughout the whole thing and I went back the next night," Daly said. "I was so moved. The next day I looked for a dance class for myself."
Karen said she now has the opportunity to share the same experience with the world as both Daly and the artistic director of Danceability, Alito Alessi, will be bringing their dance to Indonesia, Mongolia and the Philippines.
The dance duo was asked to be art envoys for the United States by the state department.
Danceibility is the first group in the arts envoy program that integrates dancers with and without disabilities.
Alessi told KVAL News that Danceability is "trying to confront and face the problem of isolation, because we don't feel that anyone's physical characteristic or unique mental way of thinking is a problem."
As an envoy, they will be teaching several dance workshops on his method in each country over the course of a month. Alessi is excited for the opportunity but says he is aware of the challenges the trip may face.
"The idea of touch we are going to be in Muslim countries, for example, we have been told we should wear long shirts, no shorts. So already you get this idea that there are cultural differences," Alessi said.
Daly says the trip is a dream come true, as she has always wanted to visit Mongolia.
"I hope they come away with the same kind of excitement and enthusiasm that I have the whole time I've been doing this," Karen said.
Danceability has started a campaign to raise money for a professional videographer for a documentary about their trip. They opened a Kickstarter account to help raise funds to hire a crew before leave next week.

The Chicago Bulls, playing without Derrick Rose much of the season, know what it feels like to be thin in an area of need. They rushed out to sign Kirk Hinrich and Nate Robinson and drafted Marquis Teague to fill the backcourt this offseason.
The frontcourt is an entirely different story. Joakim Noah, Carlos Boozer and Taj Gibson anchor a team filled with big bodies. And Gibson might be the most versatile of all. He can play both forward positions and Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau has even considered playing him at backup center to replace Omer Asik, who departed for the Houston Rockets.
"I like the fact we have several guys who can play multiple positions," Thibodeau told the Chicago Tribune. "We don't necessarily have to go small against people. We can go big."
Imagine a lineup with 6-9 small forward Luol Deng at shooting guard—that's big. In that group, reserve Vladimir Radmanovic, a stretch power forward who can shoot the 3-pointer, would come in as a small forward.
The team's starting lineup is expected to be Hinrich, Richard Hamilton, Deng, Boozer and Noah, the Chicago Tribune notes. Even with a solid lineup sans Rose, expect Thibodeau to shake things up.
"There's a lot of flexibility to our roster, which I like," Thibodeau said.

The Oakland Raiders' fourth-round selection of Arkansas' Tyler Wilson in the 2013 NFL draft was not their first choice at quarterback. The Raiders were planning to take Southern California's Matt Barkley if he had been available at No. 112 overall, the National Football Post reports.
That means the Philadelphia Eagles were wise to trade with Jacksonville to acquire the No. 98 overall pick they used to take Barkley at the top of the round.
MORE: Cruz, Giants nearing long-term deal | 49ers' Crabtree starts Achilles' rehab
It comes as no surprise, given the Raiders had been tied to taking Barkley much earlier before the draft. The former Los Angeles-based franchise has had an affinity for USC QBs of late, having started Carson Palmer last season with Matt Leinart serving as the backup.
Palmer, however, has since been traded to the Arizona Cardinals, and Leinart wasn't re-signed as a free agent. So Barkley would have been the only former Trojans QB on the Raiders' current roster.
Both Barkley and Wilson, at the moment, are looking at backup roles as rookies in 2013 going into training camp. While the Eagles are less committal about either Michael Vick or Nick Foles ahead of Barkley, the Raiders have made it clear that veteran newcomer Matt Flynn is their "presumed" No. 1.

Retail spending in East Baton Rouge Parish rebounded in October after two lackluster months, rising 6 percent compared with the same month the year before.
Businesses and consumers spent $647.7 million, up from $611.1 million in October 2011, the latest sales tax collection figures released by the city-parish show.
City-parish Finance Director Marsha Hanlon said the services sector was particularly strong in October, rising 21 percent. The category was led by the hospitals subcategory, which more than doubled.
Spending was up less than 1 percent in August and September — the two months after the end of the five-month national bowling tournament that pumped an estimated $113 million into the local economy.
But October bucked the trend.
The retail trade category, which makes up half of all spending, rose 5 percent, slightly more in October than in the previous two months.
Hanlon said two categories — furniture and home furnishing stores and electronics and appliance stores — led the way, noting increases in sales of large durable goods is a good sign for the economy.
"That's what I really like to see an increase in," she said.
Vehicle sales, which are not included in the overall totals because they tend to be more volatile, continued to show strong gains, rising 28 percent in October and are up 13 percent for the year.
October's retail spending gains came from within the city limits, up 3 percent after falling the two prior months, and outside the city limits, rising 10 percent in October after edging up only about 3 percent the two prior months.
For the year, spending is up 7 percent to $6.57 billion. It is up 4 percent within the city limits and up 10 percent in the outlying areas.
Total tax collections for the city-parish, which do include vehicle sales, were up just under 8 percent in October, at $14.1 million from a year ago. For the year, collections totaled $142.2 million, a 7 percent increase over the first 10 months of 2011.

NDP forestry critic says it will take years to undue Liberal damage
The B.C. NDP's forestry critic said if his party wins this spring's election, it will take up to five years to make a dent in the pile of forest-health issues created by the Liberal government.
Norm Macdonald outlined part of his party's plans to revitalize the industry during a stop in Penticton last week in the midst of a B.C. tour during which he's meeting with community leaders and industry representatives.
The NDP has yet to roll out its full platform ahead of the May 14 election, but it's expected to include a five-point forest strategy, the first element of which will focus on healthy-forest initiatives. Such work has been neglected by the cost-cutting Liberal government, Macdonald said.
"What I would argue is the B.C. Liberals have made conscious decisions to create problems that are now showing up."
The MLA for Columbia River-Revelstoke said the NDP's priorities will be conducting a proper inventory of B.C. forests and beginning an extensive tree replanting program.
Most of the forest inventory the province is working with now is out of date because it hasn't kept up with damage caused by pine beetles, he explained.
""It's a massive shortcoming. Forest professionals have told us that that's the first priority for them, to get the data to a place they feel they can legitimately work with."
The concern is validated by the B.C. auditor general's February 2012 report on timber management work by the Ministry of Forests Lands and Natural Resource Operations. The study confirmed a detailed inventory is lacking.
"In particular, the ministry has limited information on areas affected by pests, diseases, wildfires and other natural disturbances," the report stated.
Macdonald said it would take his party three to five years to conduct the necessary survey work "to get data one could have confidence working with."
Forests Minister Steve Thomson said in a separate interview the province has 52 per cent of its land base inventoried according to a system that is considered a "gold standard," and has increased funding for the work from $3.7 million in 2010 to $7.5 million this year.
"While the pine beetle infestation has been running its course, it didn't make sense to do the detailed inventory on what was a continually changing landscape," Thomson said.
His critic doesn't buy that.
"Even if you accept their argument, the pine beetle situation has stabilized in many of these areas since 2009. So where's the accelerated work now?" Macdonald said.
As for the tree planting program, the auditor general found there is 1.1 million hectares of forest within the ministry's jurisdiction that has potential for replanting.
Macdonald said his initiative would spool up over five years, a time lag needed to conduct surveys, create plans and order seedlings. He said his government would aim to plant 50 million trees per year.
"That doesn't solve the problem entirely; it's a step in the right direction," Macdonald said.
Thomson countered that government and industry in 2012 spent a combined $220 million to put 60 million seedlings in the ground across B.C..
"The Opposition have been saying we've been falling behind; that's not correct," the minister said.
Macdonald estimated his party's tree planting program would cost up to $85 million a year, but he didn't have a figure for the inventory work. Nor did he outline how the NDP would pay for either initiative.
"All of that will be laid out in the platform," he said, adding some of it will be contingent upon numbers contained in the budget the Liberals table later this month.

Protein is important after exercise to switch protein balance from negative to positive. Which protein is best at turning the switch on is the question. Scientists pitted protein sources against each other in the same study.
Canadian researchers compared the most popular sources of protein—whey, casein and soy—on their ability to promote muscle protein synthesis after exercise. Trained men consumed 22g of whey isolate, casein or soy isolate following a bout of resistance exercise. The results were clear that the rates of muscle protein synthesis over the three-hour post-exercise period were about two-fold higher after taking whey compared to casein, whereas soy ranked between whey and casein. The authors attributed the superiority of whey to its greater content of leucine—2.3g—compared to casein and soy—1.8g. Leucine levels in the blood over the three-hour period were 73% greater than soy and 200% greater than casein.
These findings indicate that whey maximizes muscle protein synthesis during the three-hour period after exercise because of its higher leucine content, and rapid digestion and absorption. Past three hours, casein and soy may be better due to their slower digestion rate and anti-catabolic (muscle-sparing) qualities.

)'s TRAVERSE Phase 2 Study Fails to Meet Main Goal
Transgene Announces that its Phase 2 study of Pexa-Vec in Second-line Advanced Liver Cancer did not Meet its Primary Endpoint
Conducting additional analyses of data, continuing to advance clinical trials in other cancers Announcing decision on Phase 3 development in HCC in Q4
Transgene SA (Paris:TNG) (Euronext Paris: FR0005175080) today announced that TRAVERSE, a randomized Phase 2b study of Pexa-Vec in second-line, advanced liver cancer patients had reached the pre-specified number of events for analysis. The study failed to meet its primary endpoint of overall survival for Pexa-Vec plus best supportive care (BSC) compared to BSC. Pexa-Vec was generally well tolerated with an adverse event profile consistent with previous Pexa-Vec studies in patients with advanced HCC. Additional analyses will be conducted to further understand these data.
"The rapid progression in this devastating and heterogeneous disease setting has been a longstanding challenge for developing new therapies in liver cancer," said Tony Reid, MD, PhD, TRAVERSE investigator and professor of clinical medicine, division of hematology-oncology, UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center. He added: "Despite the disappointing outcome on the primary endpoint, the TRAVERSE study was well-conducted and no unexpected safety issues were observed. The field of oncolytic immunotherapy, including Pexa-Vec, continues to hold great promise for physicians and patients."
"It is a disappointment that TRAVERSE did not reach its primary survival endpoint for this population of patients who have so limited treatment options" said Philippe Archinard, Chairman and CEO of Transgene. He added: "A detailed analysis of the final results of TRAVERSE along with other ongoing studies will be conducted by the end of the year. At this stage, the decision to move Pexa-Vec into Phase 3 in first line HCC next year is still expected to be made in Q4 2013".
Besides the TRAVERSE trial, Pexa-Vec is currently being evaluated in kidney, colorectal, and ovarian cancers through 4 other ongoing clinical studies (see About Pexa-Vec).

About Pexa-Vec: Pexa-Vec (JX-594, pexastimogene devacirepvec) was derived from vaccinia, which has been used for decades as a vaccine in healthy individuals, and was engineered to selectively target cancer cells. Pexa-Vec was also engineered to express GM-CSF, a white blood cell growth factor, which activates a systemic immune response to kill tumor cells throughout the body. Pexa-Vec exploits the unique characteristics of vaccinia, including its stealth extracellular enveloped form, which allows the virus to survive in the bloodstream in the presence of neutralizing antibodies, leading to its ability to be administered both intravenously (IV) and intratumorally (IT). Unlike many targeted therapies that rely on a single target, Pexa-Vec is applicable to multiple solid tumor types.
In addition to TRAVERSE, Pexa-Vec is currently being evaluated as monotherapy in sorafenib-naïve HCC patients and in combination with sorafenib. Pexa-Vec is also being evaluated in a phase 1/2 clinical trial in patients with treatment-refractory colorectal cancer as monotherapy and in combination with irinotecan, and in a Phase 2a clinical trial in treatment-refractory kidney cancer patients and in an exploratory study in ovarian cancer.
Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials in multiple cancer types to date have shown that Pexa-Vec, delivered either directly into tumors or intravenously, induces tumor shrinkage and/or necrosis and is well-tolerated (over 250 patients treated to date). Objective tumor responses have been demonstrated in a variety of cancers including liver, colon, kidney, lung cancer and melanoma. Pexa-Vec has had a predictable and manageable safety profile to date which includes flu-like symptoms that resolve in 24 hours.
Pexa-Vec is developed by Jennerex, Inc. of San Francisco, California in collaboration with Transgene SA, Green Cross Corporation and Lee's Pharmaceutical Holdings, each with exclusive rights to its territories. Transgene has development and commercialization rights in Europe, CIS and certain North African and Middle Eastern countries, a total of 54 countries.

It seems for my location, the strong South makes great waves once the offshore (if it comes) kicks in. North seems to be more manageable with waves it makes and reduces drift vs south.

BOCA RATON, Fla. - A homeless man in his 20s wielding a knife and making threats from the rooftop of an office plaza adjacent to Florida Atlantic University on Friday morning was shot by campus police, according to the Boca Raton Police Department.
The shooting happened in the research park on the north end of campus on Friday morning and did not involve students. The campus was never on lockdown and no one was in danger, school officials told WPBF-TV.
The man was taken to a hospital, but his identity and condition were not immediately known.
Boca Raton police are expected to release more information later in the day.
A similar threat took place at FAU in November, when the campus went on lockdown after a report of an armed man who pointed a gun to a student's head. No shots were fired and no one was hurt, and the lockdown was lifted a few hours after it was issued.
And just Thursday, police arrested a man after exchanging gunfire with him on the campus of Indian River State College in Fort Pierce.

Clayton: OLB Philip Wheeler an option for Seahawks
By Brady Henderson
The Seahawks will be looking for a new weakside linebacker assuming two things:
Philip Wheeler
The first is that pending unrestricted free agent Leroy Hill will not be re-signed – a safe assumption given his advancing age, declining production and recent arrest. The second is that the team isn't sold on the idea of handing the job to 23-year-old Malcolm Smith, who was mainly a special teams player before making three starts in place of Hill last season.
With that in mind, Jim Moore led off Wednesday's edition of "Cold Hard Facts" with a question for John Clayton about outside linebackers who might interest the Seahawks when free agency begins next week.
Clayton described the list of available 4-3 outside linebackers as relatively unimpressive before saying Philip Wheeler would be one of the better options. Wheeler, 28, set a career high with 109 tackles with the Raiders last season. He spent his first four NFL seasons with Indianapolis, where he played inside linebacker.
Pro Football Focus ranks Wheeler as the fourth-best free-agent linebacker, noting some issues he's had against the run as well as his strengths as a pass rusher.
The latter could increase his appeal to the Seahawks. Along with a career-high three sacks last season, Wheeler added 14 quarterback hits and 13 hurries on 126 pass rushes, according to Pro Football Focus. Gus Bradley's defense didn't feature much blitzing, but if new coordinator Dan Quinn decides to be more aggressive, he might prefer a linebacker who has shown an ability to get to quarterbacks.
Wheeler's one-year deal with Oakland paid him $700,000, according to contract details available here. Both sides are reportedly talking about a new deal, but it sounds like Wheeler is unsure about whether he'll return to the Raiders.
"There's plenty of teams out there," Wheeler told the San Francisco Chronicle earlier this week. "It's very important to me to get back to being part of a winning organization."

uNicedmeMan wrote:Similar situation here. It also helps that new orange flat C-PDs are pretty beefy.
Absolutely. My orange C-PD is beat in now and is my go to hyzer disc up to 350'. It is almost exactly like my beat Z pred except it is a bit faster, better in the wind, and has less glide.
On another note...There are a lot of Z/ESP Preds floating around out there that are not very overstable, so the Pred is not necessarily synonymous with overstable. Also, it seems all the nicest Z Preds start out really overstable and break in. The ones that have -HSS out of the box are never as dependable.
There is a lot of anomaly in Preds over the years. Back in '03-'04 I got this orange Z Pred with a really even and balanced dome and it was like a longer Teebird. It flew straight at medium to high speeds and never turned at all, and then it had a very late and glidey fade. It went very close to as far as the first run Orcs I was throwing, but with more control. I really wish I still had that disc because it was not only a freak, but one of the nicest overall drivers I've ever thrown. I've been through a lot of old run Z Preds since having the CDGS used stock to paw through, but I've never found one anything like the one I described above. It was from fairly soon after Z Preds first came out, but it had a normal Z hotstamp for the time. The first Z Pred I bought I'm almost certain was a FR mold, but it didn't have the lion ghost stamp. Instead it had a PREDATOR ghost stamp across the flight plate. That one had negative high speed turn and a lot of fade.

ALAMEDA — The Kansas City Chiefs are dealing with tragedy in the only way that makes sense in their world — going to practice, attending meetings and playing on Sundays.
It has been less than two weeks since linebacker Jovan Belcher shot and killed his girlfriend, Kassandra Perkins, before driving to the club facility and committing suicide in the presence of coach Romeo Crennel, general manager Scott Pioli and linebackers coach Gary Gibbs.
The couple is survived by a three-month old daughter.
"I just think that reality is reality and you cannot undo what has already been done," Crennel said Wednesday in a conference call. "You have to try and move on the best that you can. In the business we're in, moving on is our hours on the football field, and we have to focus on that ... it's been good therapy for the team, for the coaches and even for the organization."
The Chiefs (2-11) played the day after the deaths of Belcher and Perkins, beating Carolina 27-21 on Dec. 2. They fell to Cleveland 30-7 last week and visit the Raiders (3-10) Sunday at O.co Coliseum.
Coaches talk of overcoming adversity every week in reference to injuries, penalties and being behind on the scoreboard in the fourth quarter.
When it comes to real tragedy, Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer said nothing can prepare a team for the death of a teammate. Palmer was quarterback of the Cincinnati Bengals when wide receiver Chris Henry died in December of 2009.
Henry was in the back of a pickup truck and engaged in a domestic dispute with his girlfriend, Loleini Tonga, the mother of their three children. He fell out of the truck when she drove forward, striking his head and dying the following day of blunt force trauma.
It happened in Charlottesville, N.C., while Henry was away from the team with a broken arm. The Bengals were 9-4, in command of the AFC North, and lost three of their final four games, including a wild card loss to the New York Jets.
"I remember being told when we came out of meetings, and we just got together and prayed for his kids, prayed for his fiancée, his mom," Palmer said. "When something like that happens it doesn't hit you. It takes awhile to realize it because you're so busy with everything else."
The grieving process varies with the individual. Palmer said Henry's death truly didn't sink in until after he returned from the funeral.
"You start thinking about their family, their children, all the people that were affected forever," Palmer said. "It's hard to grasp right away. Obviously it's an awful situation (in Kansas City) and I know we as a team have been thinking about them. All you can do is pray for them."
Raiders linebacker Omar Gaither agrees with Crennel's assessment that football could afford some comfort.
"This, honestly, truly, is an escape," Gaither said, surveying the locker room. "There's so much involved in getting ready for a game. Granted, it's tough, those guys in the linebacker room, they see an empty seat ... it's a tragic incident, it probably won't hit them too hard until after the season when they're just sitting around and doing nothing."
Chiefs safety Eric Berry said the game preparation helps up to a point.
"We've just been trying to stay focused on what we do, but I'm not going to lie, it's been tough," Berry said on a conference call. "We're all human and we've got emotions and feelings."
Said Palmer: "It's hard to take your mind off it. You can stay busy and have meetings and film and games, but when you lose somebody that's close — that's a teammate — you're always thinking about 'em."

Carter Calvert and Sally Struthers to Star in ALWAYS...PATSY CLINE at El Portal Theatre, 7/10-8/3
El Portal Theatre and 22Q Entertainment -- Robert Levinstein & Alan Wager present Always...Patsy Cline, starring Sally Struthers and Carter Calvert as Patsy Cline, July 10 to August 3, 2014 at the historic El Portal Theatre, in the NOHO Arts District, North Hollywood, CA.
his production reunites Struthers and Calvert as they have previously performed Always...Patsy Cline together at Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine, and the Algonquin Arts Theatre in New Jersey.
The musical was written and originally directed by Ted Swindley. Twenty-two of Cline's most famous hit songs, including "Crazy," "I Fall To Pieces," "Sweet Dreams," "Back in Baby's Arms" and "Your Cheatin' Heart" are performed by Calvert along with a five-piece band, under the Musical Direction of John Randall.
This wonderful, country western, toe-tapping musical, is based on the life and music of country legend Patsy Cline (Carter Calvert) and a Texas housewife, Louise Seger (Sally Struthers), who struck up a friendship after meeting Cline and remained friends until Cline's untimely death at age 30 in a 1963 plane accident. The shows title was inspired by Cline's letters to Seger which were consistently signed Love Always...Patsy Cline.
Sally Struthers is best known for her portrayal of Gloria Stivic in the classic television show All in the Family. She also starred on Broadway in Wally's Café and in Neil Simon's female version of The Odd Couple, as well as Miss Lynch in the Tommy Tune production of Grease and Miss Hannigan in the 20th Anniversary tour of the musical Annie.

Sean McComb, recently named 2014 National Teacher of the Year, has given one of the best speeches I've ever read about what teachers can and often do accomplish.
As he told thousands of other educators gathered at the National Education Association conference: "When those children come through the school doors, teachers are the decisive element. You know it's true, you know that we wield that power every day – to push passions, to help healing, to hand out hope, to empower inspiration."
According to information supplied by the National Education Association, McComb is an English teacher at Patapsco High School and Center for the Arts in Maryland. But as he points out, teachers who make a difference are doing "something more than teaching cell replication, European history or trig identities."
"They were helping us believe in ourselves. They were creating an optimism for our future while giving us skills to trust that we could make it come to be. They were giving us hope," he said. "I'm proud to be a teacher, a hope developer."
Teachers who are "the decisive element" help young people discover that they can do far more than they think when they initially entered class.
"Like many of you, I've spent my career changing what students can 'conceive of' for themselves," he said. "Read that entire book? Inconceivable. Write how many pages? Inconceivable. Enjoy learning? For some … inconceivable. … But then it happens. The book gets read (and enjoyed), the paper gets written (and revised), the discussion becomes delightful, the collaboration contagious, learning becomes loved."
That's what my finest teachers did. Yes, they helped me improve my writing, or helped me learn fascinating things about American history, or deepened my enjoyment of music. But equally important, they helped me believe I could accomplish more than I thought possible.
McComb recognizes the enormous importance of optimism. He continued: "Hope is such a good thing, in fact, that research from Gallup has found that students who are hopeful, who believe they have a bright future, that someone believes in them and that they have the skills to get there — this element of hope — is worth about a letter grade of higher achievement than students who are not hopeful. That it can even combine with other factors of well-being to predict college success better than SAT, ACT or GPA. Hope matters."
McComb wisely urges more opportunities for teacher leadership.
"Let's talk about teams of teachers analyzing school needs, researching and proposing solutions and leading the faculty and staff through the change process. Let's have collaborative leadership in our schools," he said.
In a future column, I'll describe the growing interest in "teacher led" schools. Those can be an important option for educators, families and students.
McComb also talked money in his speech.
"The biggest question facing our nation today, the one that can lead to the answers for all the other questions, is whether we have the guts to invest in our children," he said. "Do we have the will to give them the care, education and opportunity necessary so that each can contribute their unique gifts to our society — no matter where they start? Will we invest in schools where they can all become problem-solvers and innovators; become excellent communicators and collaborators in order to work together to mature our collective capacity to grapple with these issues?"
We're posting the entire three-page speech on our website, www.center forschoolchange.org. It's one of the most eloquent explanations I've ever read about what great teachers do.
