Dodge Ram 1994-2001, Chrome LED Fog Lights by Spyder®, 1 Pair. Fog lights help you see the road better in fog and inclement weather. Mounted low on the vehicle and angled toward the road, fog lights reduce glare and illuminate the road right in front of the vehicle, enabling the driver to stay on track, for safer motoring. If your vehicle didnt come with fog lights or the originals are damaged or non-functional, install these LED Fog Lights. The multiple LEDs in each light are more luminous than comparable incandescent lights for superior illumination. They come ready to install complete with necessary wiring.
Fitment Notes: Will Not Fit Sport Models.
The drops of water in fog reflect the light back at you when you turn on regular headlights, which doesnt help much when youre trying to grope your way through a fog bank. Fog lights are mounted closer to the ground and aimed downward to direct their light at the roadway, reducing the glare created from reflected light. Fog lights illuminate the road directly in front of the vehicle, so you can stay on your side of the yellow line and off the shoulder when driving at a speed appropriate to conditions. Being able to see where youre going is key to safe driving, making fully functional fog lights important to your vision. These LED Fog Lights will provide the added safety factor of fog lights combined with the superior illumination of LEDs, for the ultimate aid to your vision in foul weather.
Improved illumination
LEDs in each fixture are more luminous than comparable incandescent bulbs. Light is directed downward toward the road for better vision in fog.
Direct bolt-on replacement
Designed to be an exact replacement for your factory lights, however some electrical wiring work may be required; most lights come with detailed installation instructions.
Unique, custom styling
Attractive housing and light arrangement for a distinctive look.
Premium quality
Thoroughly tested to ensure operation and completely sealed to prevent moisture from being trapped inside.
Meets all quality and legal standards
Meets ISO 9000 and 9002 quality standards. Approved by the SAE. Meets DOT regulations and compliant with FMVSS 108.
The small compact size of LED lights makes them easy to group together, and when assembled in this manner, are more luminous than comparable incandescent bulbs; the brighter the light, the better you can see and the more visible your vehicle becomes. And because they produce no heat during operation, you can install them anywhere. LED lights are extremely durable, with an average lifespan of 50,000-75,000 hours, which means theyll probably outlast the rest of your vehicle. The light they produce is much brighter and cleaner, much more attractive than incandescent light. LEDs are also extremely vibration resistant, an ideal quality for a light mounted on a motor vehicle.
Every Spyder light undergoes a rigorous testing and quality control process before it leaves the factory. All wiring is tested to make sure the light is completely functional, and the housing is sealed with high quality silicone to ensure that no moisture can become trapped inside. Spyder lights are approved by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and ISO-9000 and ISO-9002 certified. They meet all U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, and are compliant with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 108. Most Spyder fog lights come with comprehensive instructions to guide you through the installation, which includes detailed wiring information where applicable. Theyre backed by a limited 90-day warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Sanford and his campaign repeatedly tried to tie Colbert Busch to Pelosi, saying that a vote for Colbert Busch would also be a vote for Pelosi, who has high negatives with Republican voters and who most likely would become House speaker again if the Democrats run the table and regain control of the chamber in next year's midterm elections.
"I've fought hard over the years to make South Carolina a better place to call home. But those efforts pale now against the larger battle for the direction of our country. Maybe that's why Nancy Pelosi and allies have spent more than a million dollars to defeat me. But this contest is bigger than them or me, it's about two different visions of how we restore America and reign in Washington spending," Sanford said, looking into the camera in a TV spot that started running district-wide last week.
Two weeks ago he even debated a cardboard cutout of Pelosi to call out Colbert Busch for not accepting more than one debate.
Sanford also repeatedly brought up the money that national Democratic groups have poured into the South Carolina race.
"What it says is, whose voice do you carry when you go to Washington D.C.?" he said in the debate with Colbert Busch, pointing to the hundreds of thousands of dollars that national Democratic groups have spent on the race.
Colbert Busch, responding to the Sanford criticism, sought to distance herself from Washington and from national Democrats.
"No one tells me what to do except the people of South Carolina's 1st Congressional District. So a victory for Elizabeth Colbert Busch is a victory for the people of South Carolina's 1st Congressional District," she told CNN Monday, adding that two-thirds of her contributions have come from within the Palmetto State.
While Sanford touted his fiscal conservative record, Colbert Bush campaigned as an independent centrist who would buck President Barack Obama. In her CNN interview, she highlighted where she doesn't see eye to eye with the president.
"I respectfully disagree with his budget," she said, adding that "we need to vote to repair" the president's health care law.
Even though they didn't support Sanford, the NRCC congratulated him Tuesday night, and said the results could prove troublesome for House Democrats in 2014.
"Democrats spent more than $1 million trying to elect a candidate who was backed by the Democrat machine, but at the end of the day, running on the Obama-Pelosi ticket was just too toxic for Elizabeth Colbert Busch," Rep. Greg Walden, NRCC chairman, said in a statement.
But national Democrats see a silver lining in Colbert Busch's defeat.
"House Republicans' outreach to women voters now has Mark Sanford as the face. Republicans now have to defend him and stand with him until Election Day," Rep. Steve Israel, DCCC chairman, said in a statement. "In this deep red Republican district that Mitt Romney won by 18 points, the fact that the Democrat made this competitive is a testament to the strength of Elizabeth Colbert Busch as a candidate and the Republican habit of nominating flawed candidates."
The congressional seat became vacant when Rep. Tim Scott, who won re-election by 27 percentage points last November, was picked by GOP Gov. Nikki Haley to fill the Senate seat of Sen. Jim DeMint, who stepped down late last year to take over as the head of the conservative Heritage Foundation.
No Democrat has held the seat in more than 30 years, and that streak still stands.

Welcome to MSGVarsity.com's Memorable Mondays, a summer-long series that looks back on the top players, games and moments from the past season and gazes ahead to 2012-13. As the summer goes on, we'll compile all the lists and post them here: www.msgvarsity.com/mondays. New lists will be posted every Monday at noon.
In Week 2 of Memorable Mondays, we look at five of the best individual performances from New Jersey high schools.
Devin Fuller, Old Tappan: Devin Fuller wasn't ready to watch his high school football career dwindle away, so the electrifying quarterback did what he does best: take matters into his own hands.
Carrying his team through a win-or-go-home situation, Fuller amassed 440 yards of total offense and six touchdowns to guide Old Tappan to a resounding, 46-27 thrashing of Ramapo on November 5.
This highlight-laden performance mirrored what still is the high Division-I recruit's best -- a 489-yard, seven-touchdown outburst that lifted Old Tappan to a 65-56 shootout win over Paramus last November 20.
Fuller did most of his damage in the first half, during which he racked up 350 yards and five scores. MSG Varsity's Mike Quick weighed in by saying, "it could've been the best individual first half of football I've seen in 24 years."
Samantha Clark, St. Rose: Sam Clark always had game and a well-rounded one at that. But, in the Shore Conference Tournament final against top-seeded Manasquan, the 6-3 senior center from St. Rose made it clear she also possessed quite a bit of pride.
Two weeks prior to the title game, Clark was effectively cocooned by the blanketing defense of Samantha Sullivan and Amanda Hagaman, which limited her to 11 points when Manasquan scored a 43-39 victory in a regular-season encounter in Belmar that drew an SRO crowd. In the rematch at Monmouth University, with much higher stakes as the backdrop, Clark proved she could give as good as she took.
Her play out high on pick and rolls as well as pick and pops kept Manasquan off balance but was also effective because of how physically she carried out her end of the play. She used her rugged frame to get strong seals on in the paint and to create space to command the boards. And, her alertness off the ball, coupled with an awareness of her teammates was never more apparent than when she cut inside the lane for a dish only to deliver a brilliant touch pass to Sarah Kurtz for a wide-open 3-pointer.
Yet, it was her 28 points and 10 rebounds that truly captured the significant impact the Fordham-bound pivot had in driving St. Rose to a decisive 65-56 triumph over the eventual Tournament of Champions winner for the Purple Roses' first SCT title since 1993.
Billy Nichols, Morris Knolls: After a season rich in thrilling individual performances on the ice, it was hard to narrow it down to just one. Nick Holowko from Randolph scored a goal in every game for Randolph leading to a Public A finals appearance and freshman Shane Brown could have been picked for any number of games he helped carry Morristown to the Public A final as well.
Holowko scored the final goal in Randolph's season in a 3-1 win over Morristown and Alex Hagerty from Delbarton and Mike Nyitray of Summit capped huge seasons with a pair of goals each in the Non-Public A and Public B finals respectively.
But no one performance was better than that of Billy Nichols' 5-goal outburst against Bridgewater-Raritan in the quarterfinals of the Public A state tournament. It was the crown jewel of an journey through a season that saw the Morris Knolls senior register 28 goal, many in the biggest of spots. Nichols also got the game-winner in the Mennen Cup finals over rival Randolph and that was after the Golden Eagles had failed to even score in the two teams first two meetings.
Quenton DeCosey, St. Joseph (Met.): Quenton DeCosey had already turned in numerous high-scoring games over the years, yet his St. Joseph of Metuchen squad was largely unable to transform the big performances into victories of statewide significance.
That changed last Jan. 7 when his Falcons, then No. 7 in The MSG Varsity Power Rankings, batted No. 6 and perennial power Seton Hall Prep in the Scholarship Fund for Inner City Children Festival at Kean University in Union.
The 6-5 swing was outstanding from start to finish that day, and particularly effective down the stretch with two big buckets in the final 2:13 to steer St. Joseph to a 61-59 upset win. DeCosey pumped in 33 points and also collected 10 rebounds, five assists and five blocks as he offered a foreshadowing of events in an even bigger moment later in the season.
The Falcons hooked up with Seton Hall again March 10 in the NJSIAA Non-Public A championship, and DeCosey played as if he'd been carrying momentum in his back pocket for two months. The Temple-bound star netted 30 points, pulled down eight rebounds and had three assists to help St. Joseph to its first state title, 77-68.
DeCosey was a First Team All-State selection along with Kyle Anderson of St. Anthony, Sekou Harris of Plainfield, Tyler Ennis of St. Benedict's and Chris Jones of Teaneck.
Scott Bieda, Bridgewater-Raritan: In his previous two state tournament games, standout attackman Scott Bieda was subdued by a combination of shutoffs, double teams and spectacular goaltending of Ridgewood's Noah Pounds.
In the Tournament of Champions final June 9 against Delbarton, something of either natural or motorized proportions would have been required to hold down Bridgewater-Raritan's talented senior.
Bieda set the stage for both an individual highlight and his team's definitive show of dominance when he opened the scoring off a pass from Ryan Hollingsworth 3:06 into the game. He forged a 3-0 lead later in the period, added two more goals in the second quarter and would finish with a career-high six goals (also one assist) to power undefeated Bridgewater to an 11-5 win and a second straight T of C title.
The Manhattan-bound sparkplug was limited to a cumulative one goal and two assists in his prior two games, though that was probably due as much to Bieda's unselfishness and his club's awesome firepower as it was to the stellar defense executed against him.
Still, Bieda wasn't taking chances in the T of C final. His off-ball cuts were precise, his timing with Hollingsworth impeccable and his shooting was hard and accurate. Bridgewater (21-0) extended its winning streak to 36 games and Bieda finished with 60 goals and 47 assists for 107 points and was named to the MSG Varsity All-State team.

Fuchs, from Peru, overcame brake issues and two punctures to take victory and 25 points in his Symtech Racing Subaru Impreza to move into fourth place in the title standings, 13 adrift of leader Benito Guerra, who languished in eighth place following his exit on Thursday night.
"It's been a difficult rally for me first time here," said Fuchs, who was co-driven by Argentine Fernando Mussano. "On the first day I had problems with brakes but when I have no problems I go very fast."
Argentina's Marcos Ligato, in a Top Run Motorsport Impreza, kept his title hopes alive in second place with Valeriy Gorban doing likewise for the Mentos Ascania Racing team from Ukraine.
"I tried to win but second place is still good for the championship," said Ligato, who was 30.4s behind Fuchs at the finish of the Gallura Power Stage. "It's still open and we will work a lot for the last round in Spain."
Subhan Aksa overcame a few off-road moments and a brake issue on Saturday morning to bag fourth place alongside Italian co-driver Nicola Arena. The Indonesian can still take the championship spoils but will need his rivals to falter on the mixed-surface finale.
Oleksii Kikireshko scored his first PWRC points of the season in fifth with Michal Kosciuszko sixth. The Pole will start the final round 11 points behind Ralliart Italia team-mate Guerra, who has calculated that he can become champion by finishing third in Salou in his Mitsubishi Lancer.
Louise Cook battled the pain barrier to finish 10th behind Gianluca Linari after she aggravated an old collarbone injury. The Briton had restarted under Rally 2 rules following her retirement on Saturday with a broken driveshaft.

text: As you browse the stalls of Ho Chi Minh City's markets, you'll find the sort of wares once whispered about by the merchant ship captains who plied the waters of the Far East. There are delicate balls of dried tea that, once dropped in hot water, unfold to reveal brilliant flowers. There are lacquered serving trays covered with gold leaf and wooden chopsticks inlaid with jade. There are, too, rows of fruit grown in the hot climates of Southeast Asia, spiked and oddly shaped, wild specimens of an exotic world.

Hannah Brencher's mother always wrote her letters. So when she felt herself bottom into depression after college, she did what felt natural -- she wrote love letters and left them for strangers to find. The act has become a global initiative, The World Needs More Love Letters, which rushes handwritten letters to those in need of a boost.
Hannah Brencher believes in the power of pen and paper, and has started a global initiative that encourages strangers to exchange love letters. Full bio »

'What\'s with These "Quote" Things?'
Posted by Phil Jackson in Development, SoftLayer, Tips and Tricks'We\'ve' . "all $een" . 'this' . $problem . 'before' . $and->it . ((1==1) ? 'seems' : 'dosen\'t seem') . sprintf('about time to %s things', 'clarify');
PHP string handling can be a tough concept to wrangle. Developers have many options: single / double quotes, concatenation and various string manipulation functions. The choices you make have a significant impact on the readability and performance of your script. Let's meet the line-up:
The Literal
Single quotes are used to define a string whose contents should be taken literally. What this means is that PHP will not attempt to expand any content contained between the ' '
This is the way to tell your favorite Hypertext Preprocessor, "That little guy? Don't worry about that little guy."
In most cases this is the de-facto standard for strings. However, when a decent number of variables become involved it tends to become difficult to keep your quotes accounted for. When combining simple strings with variables and single quotes, the ".
" operator is needed between each variable/string. That ".
" is known as the concatenation operator.
$date = 'Yesterday';
$location = 'outside';
$item = array ( 'description' => 'lovely', 'name' => 'butterfly');
$content = $date . ' I went ' . $location . ' and caught a ' . $item['description'] . ' ' . $item['name'];
Output: Yesterday I went outside and caught a lovely butterfly
The Interpreted
Using double quotes will cause PHP to look a little closer into the string to find anywhere it can "read between the lines." Variables and escape characters will be expanded, so you can reference them inline without the need for concatenation. This can be useful when creating strings which include pre-defined variables.
$file = 'example.jpg'
$content = "$file"
Output: example.jpg
In previous versions of PHP there was a significant performance difference between the use of single v. double quotes. In later versions performance variations are negligible. The decision of one over the other should focus on feature and readability concerns.
The Thoughtful
Unlike single and double quotes, the sprintf
function comes to the table with a few cards up its sleeve. When provided with a formatting "template" and arguments, sprintf
will return a formatted string.
$order = array ( 'item' => 'RC Helicopters', 'status' => 'pending');
$content = sprintf('Your order of %s is currently %s', $order['item'], $order['status']);
Output: Your order of RC Helicopters is currently pending
When constructing a complex string such as XML documents, sprintf
allows the developer to view the string with placeholders rather than a mish-mash of escaped quotes and variables. In addition sprintf
is able to specify the type of variable, change padding/text alignment, and even change the order in which it displays the variables.
The debate over the most efficient method of string definition has raged for years and will likely continue ad infinitum. However, when the benchmarks show their performance as almost identical, it leaves you with one major question: What works the best for your implementation? Typically my scripts will contain all of the methods above, and often a combination of them.
print(sprintf('The %s important thing is that %s give them all a try and see for %s', 'most', 'you', 'yourself'));

Most residential appraisers recognize their new obligations under the Uniform Appraisal Dataset and the associated Uniform Collateral Data Portal; however, remaining efficient in the context of fulfilling such obligations has become a new challenge.
Appraisers, lenders, underwriters, and appraisal management companies all seem to assert their own ideas on the issue of UAD compliance as they navigate through the adjustment process of both the UAD and UCDP. Consequently, many appraisers misapply intended requirements and waste time on unnecessary details.
Designed to help students efficiently distinguish required from non-required data for UAD compliance, this seminar educates participants on how to: reconcile conflicting UAD requests from different clients; recognize how UAD data is collected and analyzed; and stay informed of ongoing UAD changes from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Upon completion of the seminar, participants will be able to:

Convenient The advantage Web-conferencing has over traditional videoconferencing is that it can be done at participants' desktops and for a fraction of the cost. The quality isn't as good, but the convenience and cost of Web-conferencing often make it the preferred choice in many situations.
Easy to use A number of service providers such as Raindance Communications and WebEx provide scheduling expertise and behind-the-scenes meeting management to ensure conferences are problem-free. Services typically charge by the minute and according to how many are participating in a meeting.
Improved features Marrying your Microsoft PowerPoint presentation with sound, and even video, isn't particularly difficult with today's Web-conferencing software. Most users can be up and running in an hour.
Collaboration tools In addition to running PowerPoint presentations, Web-conferencing participants can, depending on the program, take advantage of advanced collaboration features that allow users to simultaneously view and edit documents, as well as interactive features such as polling, instant chat and guided Web-browsing.
On-demand viewing Another advantage of Web-conferencing is the ability to archive a presentation on a Web site so someone who missed the meeting can access it via the Internet and view it at any time.

Featuresgood size and practical, but I find the suction cups do not stick to the bathroom tiles very well and usually come unstuck. does stick to bath OK.
Great product. It sticks to the bath without slipping off. The bag itself is bigger than I expected so plenty of room for our array of bath toys. I now have a tidy bathroom....until the girls are teenagers anyway!
The suckers kept slipping but now they are firmly down and haven't had any problems since.
Fab job at keeping all of the bath toys tidy!
Found the item very useful. It was spacious enough to fit all of my son's toys in.

"Under the Affordable Care Act insurance companies cannot charge women more than men for health insurance coverage, and hundreds of thousands of women are now enjoying access to preventive care, like breast and cervical screenings. The question before House Republicans is why they're trying so desperately to take these benefits away from women?"
Saturday, December 7, 2013
"The last thing our economy needs is another round of Republican refusals to act to strengthen our recovery and put people to work. What Americans need now is for Republicans to come together with Democrats to extend the unemployment insurance set to expire for more than a million Americans over the holidays; without this vital assistance, our economy will lose 240,000 jobs over the next year."

"All weekend in San Francisco there were vigils and ceremonies at the National AIDS Memorial Grove. I mention that because we feel that we were ground zero in this. There were many ground zeros, but we were one of them. And I was very proud of the next day – one of the pictures in Monday's paper was my granddaughter, four years old, with her mother showing the names of friends who have died of HIV/AIDS. I was proud because we were teaching another generation right away what our responsibilities are, but also thinking of those friends who died. Again we just thought: 'If you could just hang on another year.' But again, some did, and they're with us, and God bless that and God bless all the scientists for making that possible."

"With the passing of Nelson Mandela, the world has lost a leader who advanced the cause of equality and human rights, who overcame a history of oppression in South Africa to expand the reach of freedom worldwide. He led the campaign to defeat apartheid through non-violence, peace, and dialogue. He never allowed resentment to drive him away from the path of reconciliation. He emerged from prison to set free an entire nation; he shed the bonds of slave labor to reshape the fate of his people."
Thursday, December 5, 2013
"Everything you have said is about the middle class – the backbone of our Democracy. So thank you for your strength because you strengthen our country. And we have to just be as bold as we need to be to make sure people all know what is at risk here when they casually toss off a policy like unemployment insurance when it is a very personal matter."

Moon Dae-sung and traits of KoreansThe meteoric fall from grace of Korea's iconic taekwondo star Moon Dae-sung leaves a bad taste in the mouths of Koreans. The gold medalist in the 2004 Olympics in the Athens had been a national hero. His high-jump reverse kick knocked down his Greek opponent in the heavyweight division match. The memory of his high-profile win still lingers in the minds of Koreans. The lawmaker-elect quit the governing Saenuri Party last week. Now his copy-and-paste plagiarism is likely to risk his IOC membership. The IOC told The Korea Times that the committee will investigate the case. Moon's plagiarism of his doctoral thesis is not merely a personal issue. The strikingly good-looking man tarnished Korea's image, leaving foreigners to think that Korea is the land of plagiarism. This is not good for Korea because it adds to the line of top figures involved with sports who have been exposed for corruption, including Kim Un-yong and Lee Kun-hee. Of course, the IOC has had many cases of corruption, but these are usually associated with "Third World" countries. It is quite sad that Koreans cannot rise above the temptation. Moon also epitomizes the pervasive Korean mentality of trying to mobilize whatever means possible to realize fame, money and power. On a positive note, Korea has the self-purifying mechanism of weeding out what is wrong. Without a whistleblower, Moon might have continued to have commanded national respect as an epitome of the can-do spirit ― an Olympic gold medalist, a professor, an IOC member and a lawmaker. Koreans are noted for their can-do mentality with a competitive spirit and passion. However, Moon's disgrace shows that this spirit is tolerable only under laws and social norms. Competitive spirit and passion alone cannot ensure the success of people unless they have integrity. Depending on their view people see, a bottle is either half-empty or half-full. Korea is a land of lawbreakers and rule benders. On the other hand, society has a healthy mechanism for filtering out the bad sediment. Koreans tend to think big, help each other in joys and sorrows with an envelope of cash. This envelope culture had been a virtue of mutual assistance; however, it is becoming a crime in this growingly transparent society. Korea is an originating country of quick service. The quickly-quickly mentality is behind the phenomenal rags-to-riches success story of the Korean economy, but now this "ppali ppali" culture has become a liability to Koreans as society demands due procedures. Korea has been a land of red hot industrial expansion, and its chaebol are a unique global model for conglomerates although the country borrowed the system from Japan's zaibatsu. However, chaebol can no longer expect unbridled growth just through collusion with those in power. They should become transparent and socially responsible. Their cowboy capitalism is no longer tolerable. Moon took a risk for his phenomenal personal success. Koreans are incomparable globally in taking risks. Korea is the country where derivative financial products are the most actively traded in the world. However, Moon's ignominy also shows that there are limits in taking risk. Many Koreans assume an air of importance. Moon has become the victim of this trait. Face-saving is more important than anything else here, and until the last minute, Moon tried to save his face by denying his plagiarism. He is not an exception to many Koreans who are lovers of fame and showing-off, with an El Dorado mentality. Many drivers become rash monsters behind the wheel. Moon pushed an accelerator pedal with his knee-jerk drive to show off his fame. Korea is now struggling to move toward a highbrow society from the lowbrow one. Koreans are now living in a hero-less, entertainment and bad-mouthed society. The noisy minority has a false sense of prevailing over the silent majority. Digital activism is prevalent in the cyber world. Korea will only become a true highbrow society when fake heroes and heroines disappear. The nation will get respect internationally only when honest leaders become IOC members. Korea will become a highbrow society when Koreans are no longer nationalistic, emotional, hot, group-oriented and suspicious of anything new or different. They will get respect when they are no longer tribalistic, pushy, hierarchical, provincial minded and parochial. When such expressions as "excuse me," or "I'm sorry" become ingrained habits, Koreans will become citizens of a highbrow society. As long as TV panelists prefer argument to discussion, the nation will remain a vulgar one. Lawmakers will be able to make the nation a highbrow society if they do not perceive compromise as weakness. Many Koreans sometimes are not doing in Rome as the Romans do. Korea is a land of the world's largest church. It is also an exporter of babies. Koreans try to make the nation a highbrow society by voting out the bad-mouthed podcaster in the parliamentary election. Moon's episode demonstrates Korea's struggle to become a highbrow society. The crucial criteria for the next president should be honesty. The next leader should frustrate illegal leapfrogging up the social ladder and goal-achieving. He or she should send a message that cutting corners is no longer a sure road to success. The leader should try to block people from becoming "top dog" through bending the rules. The leader needs to encourage the watchful role of whistleblowers over mammonist and venal culture. Lee Chang-sup is the executive managing director of The Korea Times.

LAURINBURG - Scotland High coach Richard Bailey paid Friday night's opponent, E.E. Smith, the compliment of saying that the Golden Bulls arrived at Pate Stadium "well prepared."
But the Bulls' preparation wasn't quite enough to topple the Scots, who held off a tenacious Bulls' offense to win 35-28 in the third round of the NCHSAA 4-A state playoffs.
Scotland (12-1) will visit 13-0 New Bern next Friday in a rematch of last year's Eastern regional final. The Scots, then under coach Chip Williams, pounded New Bern 61-28 in 2011 en route to the program's first state championship.
The Scotland defense held off a late charge by E.E. Smith (11-2) to earn the right to advance.
"I've got to give E.E. Smith a lot of credit," Bailey said. "They never quit, and their coaches were smart enough to find something that worked and stick with it."
That "something" was an inside rushing hole that running back Sulaiman Mustafaa found early in the night and exploited for a game-high 207 yards on 27 carries.
The Scots, awarded the top seed in the 4-A Mideast pod over the No. 2 Golden Bulls, found opportunities of their own on offense. Scotland took a 7-0 lead late in the first quarter on a 15-yard run by Josh McPhatter.
The junior back finished the night with two touchdowns and 79 yards on 13 carries, second-best on the team behind sophomore quarterback Jaylend Ratliffe, who gained 164 yards and scored a touchdown on 22 carries. Ratliffe added another 80 in the air, completing four of 11 pass attempts.
The Bulls' offense struggled to move the ball in the first half and trailed 28-7 at halftime before sparking in the third quarter.
"In the second half, we came out a little weak, and they came out strong," Ratliffe said. "We had to get focused and get our minds back in the game."
With Mustafaa moving the ball down the field and 6-0, 250-pound fullback Dayvon Patterson punching the ball in at the goal line, the Bulls posted a pair of touchdowns in the third to pull within a score at 28-21.
Both teams added another touchdown in the fourth quarter, but Scotland couldn't run the clock down on a series that started at their own 42 with 3:57 left to play and punted away to start a Bulls drive at the Smith 10 with 2:23 to play.
Ultimately, it was an interception thrown by Bell and picked by Scots defender Tim McNeill on a second-and-6 attempt from the Bull 31 that guaranteed a Scot victory.
That turnover was the second of the night for the Bulls. The first, a fumble by Bell inside the Bulls' red zone in the second quarter, led to a touchdown that put the Scots up by three scores at the half.
Bulls' coach Duran McLaurin said that those turnovers didn't tell the whole story.
"We could have played better throughout the first half," McLaurin said. "And I'll take Phillip Bell and my guys over anybody any day."

Information For:
School of Digital Sciences
Kent State University
236 Math & Computer Science Bldg
Kent, OH 44242-0001
What is Digital Sciences?
Kent State University's School of Digital Sciences is a cutting-edge new interdisciplinary school designed to train tomorrow's digital leaders. Integrating elements of computer science, computer information systems, computer technology, library information science, visual communication design, journalism, communication studies, and instructional technology, it fosters a broad exposure to digital technologies as used by a wide range of professions and organizations.
Structurally, the School of Digital Sciences is an independent school, sitting beside Kent State University's ten Colleges. The School of Digital Sciences is also an interdisciplinary school, bringing together faculty from across the university to teach courses for the school or collaborate on interdisciplinary research.
The school offers Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees in Digital Sciences, an undergraduate Minor, a Master of Digital Sciences degree, and a post-Baccalaureate (graduate) certificate in Enterprise Architecture.
While "Digital Sciences" is not yet a well-understood term, interdisciplinary curricula in digital disciplines in general are developing nationwide. Nearby Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science, and Georgia Tech's College of Computing, are two well-known examples of computing units aggregated into a traditional College structure.
While not digital "science", a well-understood and closely related discipline is digital "humanities". Established in the 1970s and 1980s, Digital Humanities or Digital Studies programs exist at many major universities, including the University of California at Los Angeles, the University of Southern California, Stanford University, the University of Wisconsin, Loyola University Chicago, Duke University, George Mason University, MIT, Yale University, and Dartmouth College. A digital humanities program typically brings together expertise from some subset of library information science, computer science, journalism, communication studies, visual design, history, the arts, and others.
Like digital humanities, Kent State University's School of Digital Sciences also brings together expertise from library information science, computer science, journalism, communication studies, and visual design, but then diverges to include business and technology. As a result, Digital Sciences has a different focus from digital humanities, but these two interdisciplinary programs also have many commonalities.

It's basically a fashion site where subscribers get updates on sample sales, discounts, clearance sales, latest arrivals etc. The emails are given out on a weekly basis. (At least once a week) So how much should I charge?
This looks like a spam operation on the surface. How you have this currently worded would be 0 value to legit businesses. So if you have something in your user settings that allow them to opt into messages from partnering affiliates and that you could show that there is a conversion rate of some sort with this group then I could see value in your plan. | |||
Whatever price you decide, you might want to offer them 2 weeks/ 30 days free to get them hooked on the great information. You might try and splitting your list into 3 different choices - Free, mid-range price and then a high-end price. That way you can hit a wider range of users - those that want free can get a small amount of updates, those that can't decide will try the middle rate and those that are competitive and want the exclusive updates will pay to get them. | |||
I cant imagine someone would pay more than a few cents for an email | |||
How much is it worth? How much do the competitors charge? How much money do your customers have? And... most importantly! ... At what price will you make the most money? (The amount of money you make is probably the number of subscribers times the amount that you charge). You probably don't know the answer to this, so you're probably going to have to test different prices and see what potential customers do. A good way to test different prices without confusing people is to set a reasonably high starting price, and then have sales. This week only! 80% off! | |||
Charge who? Your subscribers or the brands and stores you feature in your blasts? If you want to charge your subscribers for that, good luck. If you haven't even thought about charging your featured sellers yet, I'd like to be the first to welcome you to the wonderful world of business. | |||
based on above you can calculate your price and add your profit then total your final quote | |||

To fight through the haze of book reviews and find a good book means a bright day. To then discover this good book is on a topic you know little to nothing about but should is a wonderful weekend. If you live out West you're bound to know something about Fred Harvey, but you are still lucky because this book is a jackpot of revelations you don't know. Find a bookstore or get on line and buy Stephen Fried, Appetite For America: How Visionary Businessman Fred Harvey Built A Railroad Hospitality Empire That Civilized The Wild West.
The author could have written a half-page title and still needed to trim to stay within the half-page. If you love the Midwest and the Southwest, if you love to travel cross country and visit the National Parks, if you enjoy fine dinning and regional cooking, if you admire Native American culture and art, if you thrill at famous resorts and theme parks, then you owe Fred Harvey a thank you. The founder Fred, his son Ford, his grandson Freddy, their in-house architect and designer Mary Colter, art and merchandise maven Herman Schweizer, book merchant Frank Clough, daughter Minnie, and granddaughter Kitty, plus great chefs, business executives, and thousands of Harvey Girls make this a great American saga. Every twist, unexpected corner, train delay, devastating fire, and grand opening adds to the story. There are no bogged down sections in this book.
Southwest collectors will appreciate the research and dates the author brings to the book. I found very quickly that the internet plays loosely with the Fred Harvey name so serious collectors must scream for solid research.
After writing the family biography and business history, the author gives you three appendices he could have packaged as a separate book. Appendix I is The Grand Tour Of Fred Harvey's America taken on the Southwest Chief by the author and his wife. There is still a lot of Fred Harvey out there to see but you need to know where to look. Appendix II is Meals By Fred Harvey selected for the fun of reading as well as trying out. This appendix begins with the perfect note on How To Make Coffee because the spiritual father of our morning coffee is none other than the founder himself Fred Harvey. These few pages make this a cookbook to keep.
The final appendix will for the Western train enthusiast and historian appear as gold on vellum. It is Fred Was Here: A Master List Of Fred Harvey Locations. The branding and quality control put in place by the founder and carried on by the family and associates continues to give unmeasured pleasure to travelers, collectors, historians, and more than a few just plain Americans.
The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe would have left the station without Fred Harvey, but it could not have made the impact it did without him on board, and waiting at the next stop as well. What fun it must have been, riding and eating and looking and buying and singing on . . . . Charles Marlin

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The sixth annual 'DVE Rocks for Children's Radiothon raised more than $564,000 for Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Foundation. The radiothon was broadcast live from the Eat'n Park Atrium at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC Thursday, Sept. 12 through Saturday, Sept. 14.
The station's on-air personalities, including Randy Baumann and the DVE Morning Show, Michele Michaels, and Sean McDowell, all broadcast stories of exceptional care and tremendous courage from patients, families, and staff live from Children's Hospital.
The three-day radiothon featured live performances from national recording act, Midnight Red, Scott Blasey of The Clarks, and local musicians, Josh and Gab.
