A resurrected cop does battle with a villain whose quest for immortality threatens an entire metropolis in Sin City creator Frank Miller's adaptation of Will Eisner's acclaimed graphic novel. When a rookie cop is brutally killed and mysteriously brought back to life, he assumes the guise of The Spirit (Gabriel Macht) -- a masked crime fighter who prowls the shadows of Central City on a supernatural mission to keep the urban landscape safe. Upon discovering that his arch nemesis, The Octopus (Samuel L. Jackson), is determined to live forever even if it means wiping out the entire population of Central City, The Spirit must race to stop the diabolical villain from achieving his cold-blooded plan. But even with his unique powers, the brave masked crusader will face a series of deadly challenges as a bevy of treacherous beauties including deceptively sweet girl next door Ellen Dolan (Sarah Paulson), spitfire secretary Silken Floss (Scarlett Johansson), wraithlike siren Lorelei (Jaime King), seductive policewoman Morgenstern (Stana Katic), and French black widow Plaster of Paris (Paz Vega) set out to seduce or consume him at every turn; even The Spirit's one true love, a volatile jewel thief named Sand Saref (Eva Mendes), could ultimately destroy our hero before he accomplishes his mission of saving Central City. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

In the years before the Hamptons became the ultimate Long Island destination, two generations of clam diggers work the land and struggle to make sense of the changes that threaten to forever transform their simple way of life. The year is 1976, and the future Long Island vacationing hotspot is little more than a tight-knit community of hard-living folks who make their living from the sea. While the impending presidential race between Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter has the entire country swept up in the wind of change, the local Hamptons clam diggers begin waging a losing battle against the wealthy developers who are gradually encroaching on their waters. Hunt (Paul Rudd) is a restless and imaginative digger who comes from a long line of hardworking seafarers and has a keen eye for black-and-white photography. When Hunt's father suddenly dies, Hunt and his lifelong pals Frankie (Ken Marino), Jack (Ron Eldard), and Cons (Josh Hamilton) slowly begin to take stock of their modest lives. Meanwhile, as Hunt's recently divorced older sister, Gina (Maura Tierney), struggles to get by while working as a waitress at a local diner, Hunt himself enters into a playfully flirtatious relationship with vacationing Manhattanite Zoe (Lauren Ambrose). Constantly questioning why Hunt refuses to venture out of his dead-end town in favor of pursuing his artistic talents in the big city, Zoe serves as a persistent reminder that one is not always necessarily bound by his or her roots. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

One of the two NBC series debuting in the fall of 2006 which took place backstage at a Saturday Night Live-style comedy show (the other was 30 Rock), Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip was the brainchild of The West Wing's Aaron Sorkin. This weekly, hour-long dramedy concerned itself with the million-and-one intrigues behind the hallowed walls of the fictional "NBS" network, where ambitious new president Jordan McDeere (Amanda Peet) was determined to pump fresh blood into the network's anemic Prime Time schedule. Over the objections of imperious NBS chairman Jack Rudolph (Steve Weber), McDeere rehired writer Matt Albie (Matthew Perry) and director Danny Tripp (Bradley Whitford), who had been fired from the staff of the network's weekly ensemble-comedy offering "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" two years before. It was hoped that Albie and Danny could save the flagging property from cancellation, a formidable task in that "Studio 60" was already collapsing from within thanks to a surfeit of egotism and ill-will. For head writer Matt Albie, the challenge was doubly difficult: it so happened that "Studio 60"'s star Harriet Hayes (Sarah Paulson) was his former lover. Fortunately, Matt and Cal worked together so harmoniously that it would seem that Jordan McDeere's strategy for rescuing her network from oblivion was sheer brilliance. . .maybe. Other regulars included D.L.. Hughley and Nathan Corddry, respectively, as popular "Studio 60" cast members Simon Styles and Tom Jeter. Filled to overflowing with smart-and-savvy inside references to the state of network TV in the first decade of the 21st century (many of the "jokes" were at the expense of the series' host network NBC), Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip premiered September 18, 2006. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A band of renegades on the run in outer space get in more hot water than they anticipated in this sci-fi action-adventure adapted from the television series Firefly. In the 26th century, the galaxy has been colonized by a military force known as the Alliance, but its leadership has not gone unquestioned. The Alliance was once challenged by a league of rebels known as the Independents, but the Alliance emerged victorious after a brutal civil war, with the surviving Independents scattering around the galaxy. Also wandering the edges of the galaxy are the Reavers, who have won few allies due to their violent behavior and habit of ripping apart their enemies and eating them before they're dead. Capt. Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds (Nathan Fillion), who fought as an Independent in the galactic war, is the head of
, a rogue frieghter ship whose crew includes Mal's first mate, Zoe (Gina Torres), who fought alongside him in the war, her husband, hotshot pilot Wash (Alan Tudyk), sunny but dependable mechanic Kaylee (Jewel Staite), and hard-nosed gunman Jayne (Adam Baldwin). The crew of
wander the galaxy, taking on whatever work they can get, from criminal activities like smuggling and stealing to legitimately offering transport to travelers. Passengers aboard
include professional "companion" Inara (Morena Baccarin) and holy man Shepherd Book (Ron Glass), but the real trouble aboard the ship comes with the arrival of Simon (Sean Maher) and his teenage sister, River Tam (Summer Glau). In time, the crew discovers that River has remarkable psychic powers and was being held captive by Alliance forces until Simon came to her rescue. Now the Alliance is hot on the heels of
and its passengers, with The Operative (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a sinister Alliance tracker, leading the chase. Serenity was written and directed by Joss Whedon (in his directorial debut), creator of Firefly, which only lasted 11 weeks on the air but gained a powerful cult following who rallied to get the show released on DVD after its cancellation, leading to impressive home-video sales and and an eventual motion picture deal. A couple of months prior to Serenity's theatrical release, reruns of Firefly were picked up by the Sci-Fi channel, adding even more fans to its cult following. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Celebrated and vilified in equal measure, the pinup goddess Bettie Page inspired a legion of followers -- and an indecency scandal -- by appearing in a series of nude, sado-masochistic, and/or revealing magazine spreads in the 1950s. An era later, writer/director Mary Harron casts a knowing eye upon the woman who indirectly gave birth to modern pornography in the biopic The Notorious Bettie Page. As a teen, Page (Gretchen Mol) is a smart, plucky girl with ambitions beyond her Tennessee roots. Suffering varying degrees of abuse from her father, her first husband, and suitors of dubious virtue, Page makes her way to New York City, where an amateur photographer discovers her lounging on the beach. It isn't long before images of the shapely brunette reach Irving and Paula Klaw (Chris Bauer and Lili Taylor), brother-and-sister entrepreneurs who publish illicit magazines dedicated primarily to men's fetishes. The casual nudist Page eventually finds herself acquiescing to their requests to don thigh-high boots, whips, and chains, which raise the ire of the smut-fearing senator Estes Kefauver (David Strathairn). The Notorious Bettie Page had its North American premiere at the 2005 Toronto International Film Festival. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

Deadwood: A Lie Agreed Upon, Part 1
Martha (Anna Gunn) and William Bullock (Josh Eriksson), Seth's (Timothy Olyphant) wife and son, make their way to the camp in a coach accompanied by Maddie (Alice Krige), Joanie's (Kim Dickens) new partner in an upscale brothel. In Deadwood, Seth is dealing with a shooting at the No. 10, involving a prank that went wrong. Al (Ian McShane) is angry to learn that the feds have appointed three commissioners to oversee the territory, and all of them are from Yankton. He expects Seth to be playing a prominent role in the camp's future, and is disappointed that Seth seems preoccupied with the worst-kept secret in camp -- his affair with Alma (Molly Parker). Al expresses his disappointment to Seth in the crudest terms, and from the balcony of the Gem, prompting Seth to pay a visit. Al questions Seth about why Alma is sending her gold out of town instead of putting it to use in the camp, but it's too late for rational conversation. Seth is insulted, and is determined to fight with Al. Their brutal combat is interrupted by the arrival of the coach, but not before Dan (W. Earl Brown) intervenes, prompting both Sol (John Hawkes) and Charlie (Dayton Callie) to take a run at Johnny (Sean Bridgers), who, unfortunately, wields a shotgun. Cy (Powers Boothe), meanwhile, is less than thrilled at the new arrivals in camp -- Maddie and her new whores -- and enraged that Joanie did not notify him of her plans, finding another backer for her move. "It's kill you or let you go," Cy tells her as he bitterly mulls his options. "Could I make it with you dead?" ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi

Add Down With Love to top of Queue
Director Peyton Reed and screenwriters Eve Ahlert and Dennis Drake pay homage to the frothy romantic comedies of the early '60s -- in particular the Doris Day/Rock Hudson vehicles -- in this light-hearted and affectionate spoof. Barbara Novak (Renée Zellweger) is a sweet but savvy small-town librarian who has arrived in New York City with big plans to take on the town. Embracing a feminist philosophy years before it becomes common or fashionable, Novak writes a book called "Down With Love," in which she presents her theory that romantic relationships cause more problems than they solve for women, and urges women to focus instead on what will truly make them happy -- self-reliance, a solid career, and a healthy sex life (or chocolate if the latter is unavailable at the moment). Almost overnight, "Down With Love" becomes a minor scandal and a major bestseller, but not every man is America is happy with the new breed of liberated (and demanding) women spawned by the book's success, and Catcher Block (Ewan McGregor), a lady-killing bachelor who writes for Know Magazine, decides to put Novak to the test. Posing as a shy, retiring type, Block is determined to make Novak fall in love with him, and then share the details with the world through an article in Know. Block's editor Peter MacMannus (David Hyde-Pierce) thinks this is a splendid idea, but to Block's distress, he discovers himself developing real feelings for Novak. Down With Love also features Tony Randall, who significantly appeared in three films with Rock Hudson and Doris Day. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Various lives intersect to curious results in this sometimes surreal tale of life in Silverlake, from the duo who scripted crazy/beautiful and The Tuxedo. As Chinese-food restaurant and donut shop owner Cyr's (Brian Cox) obsessive-compulsive leanings begin to get the best of him, his workers' lives seem to be falling into a bizarre state of disrepair. Manager Sung (Alexis Cruz) soon begins to tire of Cyr's increasingly odd tendencies, and fortune-cookie message scribe Dwight's (Jamie Kennedy) girlfriend has recently decided to end their relationship; leaving Dwight to vent his frustrations by penning various inappropriate message for the restaurant's fortune cookies. When Mitchell discovers a fortune that reads "You will meet the girl of your dreams" and subsequently runs into a prospective female, his unyielding affections are seemingly rejected, crushing the lonely soul's hopes for love. Meanwhile, Ernie (Chris Bauer) and Olive's (Christina Kirk) marriage seems to be heading south for reason's yet unknown, and a successful businessman (Michael Hitchcock) grows increasingly distressed when he loses his job after losing his cool at a business dinner. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Leap of Faith [TV Series]
If the NBC sitcom Leap of Faith tended to resemble the no-holds-barred cable series Sex and the City at times, it may have been because both series shared the same executive producer, Jenny Bicks. Set (of course) in New York City, the NBC series starred Sarah Paulson as thirty-ish Faith Wardwell, a sharp-witted ad executive. Getting cold feet just before her wedding to "looks good on paper" fiance David (Bradley White), Faith opted instead to continue playing the sexual field, with sideline coaching from her three best buds, Andy (Ken Marino), Patty (Lisa Edelstein), and Cynthia (Regina King). Oscar-winning actress Jill Clayburgh was seen as Faith's freewheeling mom Cricket. Leap of Faith inaugurated its network run on February 28, 2002. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Will she find that meaning with equally lonely delivery guy Billy (Chris Wiehl)--or can it be that Jeff (Christopher Jacobs), the man who has broken her heart, will come back into her life? The answers, of course, are not immediately forthcoming...and it will take a devastating tragedy for Zoe to finally discover what love really means. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A man finds himself getting an unexpected crash course in the psychology of contemporary women in this romantic comedy. Nick Marshall (Mel Gibson) is a successful advertising executive living in Chicago who has long fancied himself a ladies' man, though he has precious little understanding of women beyond figuring out how to seduce them. One day, Nick receives a substantial electric shock in an accident in his bathroom; while he's not seriously injured, when he comes to, he discovers something remarkable has happened -- he can suddenly hear what women are thinking. At first, Nick finds himself learning all sorts of things he didn't want to know, but he also realizes how this can be used to his advantage -- especially after his old boss, Dan Wanamaker (Alan Alda) is replaced by a woman, Darcy Maguire (Helen Hunt). But Nick begins to feel differently about his unusual gift when he discovers Darcy is infatuated with him, and he finds himself falling for her. What Women Want also features Bette Midler as Nick's analyst, Delta Burke and Valerie Perrine as two of his co-workers, and Marisa Tomei as one of Nick's significant others. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

In this fish-out-of-water comedy, Jamie Foxx plays a man named Michael Dawson, though he's confused for both Puff Daddy and Mike Tyson by the citizenry of the podunk southwest town that serves as the setting for Held Up. Road-tripping Michael and Rae (Nia Long) stop in for gas in Michael's new vintage roadster, but she grabs a ride to the airport with a truck full of cowboys after learning he blew more than 10,000 dollars earmarked for buying a home on the automobile. Moments later, Michael loses the car as well when a youth cons him out of the keys. Just when his day couldn't get any worse, Michael lands in the middle of a botched hold-up by amateurs trying to knock over the convenience store. All variety of local law enforcement, from the sheriff (Barry Corbin) to truckloads of unofficial shotgun-toting "deputies," quickly descends on the scene. Michael tries to sweet-talk the frightened gunman (Eduardo Yanez), befriend his fellow hostages (Sarah Paulson and John Cullum), and plan how to reach the airport before Rae's flight leaves, all while not getting shot by the hair triggers inside and outside the store. The film was produced and originally publicized under the title "Inconvenienced." ~ Derek Armstrong, Rovi

If bill(malarky) comes across this, is there anyway for us to get a hyperlink system for this stuff, ctrl + c gets a little tiresome!
Yes, that is actually next on my list. Hopefully it will be done in about a week or so.
how would you be doing a hyperlink system?
I don't know how yet I'm going to research it etc. I'm hoping there will be some PHP library or something that will help.
Basically what I'm looking for is something that will parse comment text and output html based on some sort of formatting system. Kind of like BBcode.
are you owner of the website or something?
I'm the admin yes. That's why jay was asking when I could get around to updating the comments system. Which I'm pretty happy to say should happen sooner than I initially thought, if all keeps going well. I think I found a good solution.
nice. add repost tags, not just downvotes?
Once again, brains beats bimbo.

As I wind down and reflect on my trip to Belfast, I feel that it is hard to choose any particular activity that we did as a clear and distinguished favorite. However, I do think that one of the most meaningful experiences we had during this trip came on the second to last day in Belfast. We were able to take a tour of the Long Kesh/Maze prison, where former paramilitaries and political prisoners were held during the Troubles. We were even fortunate enough to be guided by one of the former Blanketmen, named for their refusal to wear prison uniforms and instead wore a blanket tunic. We were also able to see the cells and hospital rooms of the Hunger Strikers, including Bobby Sands' room.
Later that evening, we had the opportunity to meet with even more Blanketmen and hear about their struggles in prison and the Troubles. Their stories were heart-wrenching, but inspirational. It was impressive how each man had converted his energies from armed conflict to supporting their local communities, through activities such as teaching Gaelic or running community aid agencies. The events of this day brought us as close to understanding the Troubles as we possibly could. I surely will not forget these unique, once-in-a-lifetime experiences!

One of CAST's earliest leaders was John Adams.
Not the Massachusetts statesman known for inspiring the early colonies toward independence. RIT's John F. Adams was acting director of the School of Engineering Technology in 1980, and one of the many individuals who shaped the College of Applied Science and Technology since it was formally established in 1972.
The college will celebrate its early founders and leaders; its current community of students, faculty and staff; and its successful alumni starting with two main events taking place during Brick City Homecoming & Family Weekend:
- CAST Commemorative 40th Anniversary Celebration, 1–3 p.m. Oct. 18 next to the Engineering Technology Building. It is free and open to the campus community and general public. Guests will include RIT and Rochester community leaders, alumni and corporate partners.
- The School of International Hospitality and Service Innovation Alumni Awards Dinner at 6 p.m. Oct. 18 at the Radisson Hotel, 175 Jefferson Road. The event will include dinner starting at 7 p.m. Cost for the program is $50 per person for alumni and guests, $25 for students. Guests should register online by Oct. 10.
The hospitality alumni awards will be given to six distinguished alumni and faculty who have contributed to the department and the hospitality industry. Those receiving awards are Diane Dimitroff '83, '96 (B.S., MBA); executive director, Lehigh Valley Association of Independent Colleges, Pennsylvania; Edward Keyes '99 (B.S.); Suzanne Piotrowski '95 (M.S.), president, Badfish Consulting LLC; Cyndi Weis '92 (B.S.), owner, Breathe Yoga; Alysse Schuster '12 (M.S.) and Francis Domoy, Chair Emeritus of the department.

Stacks of holiday mail spilled out of the truck. The letters and packages didn't belong to the three people in the cab.
Tacoma police officers, chasing a tip from an alert neighbor, stopped the truck early Thursday morning in Federal Way in the 2100 block of Southwest 356th Street, just across the Pierce-King county line. They found mail and packages seemingly lifted from addresses throughout the area, and as far north as Seattle. Investigators, still going through the evidence, guessed as many as 30 victims, Tacoma police spokeswoman Loretta Cool said.
The call came in shortly after 3:30 a.m. The neighbor reported seeing a white pickup truck with U-Haul graphics in the area. The passengers were filching mail.
An officer on patrol in the area heard the call and saw a white pickup drive by: a 2012 Ford F150 with Arizona plates and U-Haul graphics.
The officer followed the truck and flagged it down, according to a police report. A 38-year-old Burien man was driving. He had two female passengers. One was 21, from Seattle. The other was 26, from Burien – or so it seemed. All three smoked, passing cigarettes to each other and looking edgy.
The driver said he and the two women had been visiting the Emerald Queen Casino in Fife and gotten lost on their way back to Des Moines.
An officer asked for the rental agreement tied to the truck. The man said he didn't have it. The officer asked if there was any mail in the truck. The man said no.
The officer asked the man to step out of the car. Mail fell out when he opened the door. Stacks of mail bulged from the driver's door pocket. More mail sat in the middle of the seats, including a package with an Amazon label. The driver had been sitting on some of it.
Officers cuffed the man. He said the mail wasn't his. A friend had borrowed the truck earlier in the day and left it there.
Seated in a patrol car, the man claimed he'd just swallowed a gram of "black" heroin and wasn't feeling so well. Officers called for medical aid.
The 21-year-old woman said the driver was her boyfriend. She said he was abusive. The mail was in the truck when he picked her up, she said. She said they'd decided to go pick up some more.
"She fully admitted to the mail theft," the report states.
The woman added that she, too, had just swallowed an ounce of heroin.
The third woman was a mystery. Asked for identification, she handed officers a Wal-Mart card and a job application from Nordstrom, saying she didn't have other ID with her. She gave several names. Officers ran one of them and came up empty. They ran another and came up with an active arrest warrant.
Medical aid arrived and transported the 38-year-old and the 21-year-old to the hospital. Both refused treatment and left, the report states.
Why weren't the two arrested after leaving the hospital? Cool and fellow police spokesman Mark Fulghum said it was partly a matter of procedure. Medical aid crews decide whether treatment is warranted, they said.
The man and the woman had provided addresses and names that checked out, making it possible to seek them out later, Cool said. While the mail and packages appeared to be stolen, investigators have to prove it first; if the information leads to a charge of mail theft, federal authorities from the U.S. Postal Service have a voice in potential charging decisions.
"We're not going to sit in the hospital," Cool said. "We know how to find them."
The third woman was arrested on the outstanding warrant and booked into the Pierce County Jail on suspicion of obstructing justice and providing false information to a police officer. At booking, she gave yet another name, one that appeared to be more credible, according to the police report.

I'm from the 5D customer. I bought the red epic and it seems to me impossible to find a shoulder mount rig that you can EASILY PULL focus directly on the lens. The gunner seems quite hard to it. You have to pull it on the top...weird. With the clutch or the recoil (zacuto) you have the grip for your two hand and the viewfinder is on the way to do the focus properly...
Do you guys know a rig that would help me do that. I previously bought the GORILLA KIT from zacuto and I absolutely loved it with my 5D. But with the red epic, it's just impossible to do it.

Silverdale Crash Kills Two
Hilltown Township Police have identified two drivers who were killed Saturday night in a two-vehicle collision at Routes 113 and 152 in Silverdale.
They are 49-year-old Mary Dodds of Damson Lane in Montgomery Township and 32-year-old Stacy Byrne of Prospect Avenue in Croydon.
Police Say Dodds was traveling at a high rate of speed in her Toyota Camry when it struck the rear end of Byrne's Chevrolet Cavalier, which was stopped for a red light in the northbound lane of Route 152.
Byrne's 34-year-old husband, Ian, was a passenger in the Cavalier. He was taken to a hospital for treatment of injuries that are not life-threatening.

(BPT) - If you can resist the temptation to reach for it while you're behind the wheel, your smartphone can be a great asset as you care for your vehicle. A smartphone can give you instructions for maintenance procedures while you are under the hood, help you find a part that needs fixing and get you to a trusted mechanic quicker and easier than ever before.
Whether you're a weekend mechanic or simply enjoy being able to keep a handy and accessible maintenance log, here are few ways your smartphone can help you take better care of your car:
* How-to videos. YouTube isn't just a great place to check out the latest hilarious viral video, it's a great resource for finding videos that can lead you through common car maintenance procedures. "Being able to pull up an installation video, often for your specific car, on a smartphone so you can watch while you replace parts is convenient for mechanics," says Tom Taylor, engineer and vice president of RockAuto.com.
* Parts catalogs. Knowing that it would come in handy for both professional and do-it-yourself mechanics, RockAuto.com recently released a mobile version of its comprehensive parts catalog. "Someone under a car looking at a rusty parking brake cable does not want to make a dozen trips back to the computer on their desk. We created a mobile version of our catalog for customers who want to research new parts while they are literally looking at the old parts on the car," says Taylor. With a smartphone-ready parts catalog, you can not only see your options for replacement parts, but place your order on the spot while you continue to work.
* Maintenance diaries. If you're like many conscientious car owners, you probably keep a log book in your glove box detailing everything from maintenance procedures to oil changes and even gas mileage from tank to tank. The good news is there are now a number of mobile device "apps" that can make this task even easier for you. A good car maintenance app will organize and present the notes you keep in a logical way, and even allow you to keep notes on multiple vehicles. Some even have the ability to send you reminders when you are due for an oil change or other routine maintenance procedures.
* Garage locaters. If you end up breaking down in unfamiliar territory, a smartphone can be of great assistance in finding a reputable shop. Your map app can help you locate the shops closest to you and then you can take to the Web, visit a shop's site and read reviews collected by mobile-friendly services like CustomerLobby to learn what other customers said about repairs they had done at the shop.
* Car buying info. Your smartphone can also help you if you're in the market for a new car. If you're on the showroom floor, you can use your phone to browse vehicle specifications and read reviews. Many car magazines now have mobile sites, making things that much easier, and you can even get a quick answer on what kind of fuel economy to expect at fueleconomy.gov/m.
"Car owners have long been using Internet resources for many things from answering common maintenance questions to ordering new parts," says Taylor. " There are limits on the amount of information that can be displayed on a smartphone's small screen, but the increasing availability of resources for mobile users has definitely made it easier to get many car questions answered and needs addressed while people are on the go."

Lake Lavon has been a go to spot in the last month or so. Limits of tasty crappie, sand bass, and large mouth are easy to find. The lake has a small population of jet skis and pleasure boaters. It is nothing like Hubbard or Lake Lewisvilles party lakes. Yes, you will get waked here and there by the weekenders cause they just don't know. Other than that, you can fish in all kinds of locations throughout the lake and even have the family out there with you to enjoy the action.
White Bass/ Sand Bass
Limits have been really easy on both lakes, Hubbard & Lewisville. The sandies have been schooling early morning and late morning. Every week they pop up in a new spot, so be prepared to keep on the move and watch for surface activity till about 9 am. They have been known to stay up almost the whole day and feed very aggressively. Usually they do this before a front comes through. At Lavon, I'm finding them in 6-18 ft of water as the thermocline sets in.
Thermocline is is a thin but distinct layer in which temperature changes more rapidly with depth than it does in the layers above or below.
(picture by T Mike)
You can see the thermocline right about 27 ft on this lake. All the fish will be above it and not below it. Don't be scared to fish shallow in the 100 degree weather. The fish have to stay above the thermocline or they will suffocate if they go below it. So, the fish only have a small part of the water column to swim in. If you find shallow structure above the thermocline, fish it!
With that said, we are catching crappie on Lake Lavon 5-14 ft now as the thermocline starts to settle in. Find coves and you will find timber, the lake has a lot of submerged timber and brush piles out of the south winds. If you have Side Scan or Side Imaging, you will have no issues of finding fish-able targets.n If you don't know how to read side imaging, I talked about it a while back in another blog, after your done reading this, search my previous blogs to see pics and how to break down what you are seeing on your graph.
I am using Thump Buddies in black/chart and white/chart. I powder paint my jig head in pink. The crappie love the pink, black, chart combo color. As the lake heats up, Minnows are going to be king. Carolina rig them w/ a 4 inch leader lighter than you main line. So when you break off, u get your swivel and weight back at least. I go through a 1/2 lb of minnows per two people every trip, if the crappie are not responding to jigs. Pay close attention to the depth of the first 3 crappie and that should give you a pattern for the day.
If you want a better fight and bigger fish, try casting a Texas Rigged Worm ( motor oil, purple w/ chart tail, watermelon green, shad color) at structure in 1-18 ft. The fish are moving out of the depths and going shallow again chasing bait. 3-6 pound fatties are being landed on every outing. I even saw a 10 plus pound black get broken off last week. So the lake is pumping out lots of fish.
I also throw crank baits that dive to 12 ft with 12 lb line and smash the bait into the structure, and as it deflects off the rocks or stumps, the fish go nuts and slam it. During the week is best and early on weekends due to all the boaters everywhere, the fish hunker down a bit.

DHAKA: Boosting the levels of vitamin D might help men with erectile dysfunction (ED) as there is a link between heart disease, asthma, depression, periodontal disease, falls and fractures and low levels of the vitamin, a new study has claimed.Evidence cited supporting the link between low vitamin D and ED include that those with asthma, depression, falls and fractures, multiple sclerosis, and periodontal disease are at greater risk of having ED.In addition, those with ED are at greater risk of developing cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and metabolic syndrome. All of these diseases are linked to vitamin D deficiency.Vascular problems account for about half the cases of ED. There is a large body of research finding that vitamin D can maintain vascular health.The mechanisms appear to include suppressing the activity of the renin-angiotensin system, thereby lowering blood pressure, improving endothelial function, reducing inflammation, and reducing vascular calcification.Solar ultraviolet (UV) light is the primary source of vitamin D for most people. In addition, UV increases nitric oxide concentrations in the blood, which also appears to reduce the risk of ED.Those diagnosed with ED should consider having serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentration measured, then adopt a program to increase concentrations to at least 40 ng per ml (100 nmol per l) through vitamin D supplementation and/or increased solar UVB exposure.Serum 25(OH)D concentrations should be re-measured a few months after starting such a program. Those diagnosed with ED should also have their physician check for signs of early diabetes or cardiovascular disease."Onset of erectile dysfunction is a life-changing event for a man of any age. Fortunately, there are now reasonably successful medical treatments for it. However, as he or she is signing the script, the Physician should remember that ED is frequently an early indicator of systemic disease", Dr. Richard Quinton, from The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals, England, said."The conditions we tend to think of first in relation to ED are diabetes and hypogonadism, but any occult systemic disease can precipitate ED many years before it becomes clinically apparent", he said.The hypothesis presented in this paper is certainly plausible and deserves to be tested, but even if there turns out to be no direct vascular-related link between ED and hypovitaminosis D, it is highly likely that patients with symptomatic fatigue and-or musculoskeletal aches and pains secondary to the more severe end of the hypovitaminosis D spectrum will exhibit impaired erectile and sexual function."We know from the MRC survey that severe hypovitaminosis D is highly-prevalent even among middle-aged Caucasians in the UK, particularly in the West of Scotland. This is almost certainly due to our high latitude, prevalent cloud cover and low fish consumption", Quinton said."So, whilst writing that script for erection-promoting tablets, the Physician should also consider the possibility of hypovitaminosis D, particularly if the following risk factors are present: constitutively darker skin type, conscious or unconscious sun-avoidance behaviour, including culturally or behaviourally-determined forms of clothing, routine use of SPF sunblock in everyday life, shift work, obesity, medication with immunosuppressants or anticonvulsants, or bowel disease predisposing to fat soluble vitamin malabsorbtion"."Thus, among the lifestyle changes the Physician might typically promote in the context of ED, such as "stop smoking, take more exercise, eat more healthily and lose weight", "get more sunshine exposure to bare skin"should perhaps also be there in the mix."For the purpose of maximising vitamin D photosynthesis, whilst minimising solar skin damage, the most logical solution mathematically is to expose as much skin as possible (without burning) -ie. sunbathing- rather than just exposing forearms, face and neck for a longer period."However, we all know how hard it is to persuade our patients to make significant and sustained lifestyle changes, which is precisely why bariatric surgery has taken off in recent years. Moreover, not everyone can afford to take a "winter sun" holiday, so for many people, taking an oral vitamin D supplement may be the way forward," he added. The study has been published in Dermato-Endocrinology.BDST: 1455 HRS, JULY 09, 2012Edited by: Sharmina Islam, Lifestyle Editor

PA is the 5th state I've lived in and I LOVE it! I recently bought my first home with my husband and we're living happily ever after there with our furry kids (Boston Terrier mixes) Misha and Olive.
Education: I'm for it! Seriously…I graduated from William Woods University (never heard of it…right?). It's known for its Equestrian Science (ponies!) program…so it makes sense that I went there to study Communications and Theatre. I also like ponies!
Hobbies: Other than music and ponies, I'm passionate about food. I love eating it, cooking it, watching others cook it…and don't even mind when people constantly post pictures of food on facebook/instagram.
Occupation: Guess…just guess…stumped? I play awesome music for you on FM97! I love music and always have. I secretly wish that I'd had insane stage parents that pushed me into being a huge singing/acting sensation…oh well. (You may occasionally hear one of my cartoon voices on an educational app or elsewhere!)
Celeb I'd Like to Meet: Chelsea Handler...although she hates redheads, she has a soft spot for "nuggets" and a t 4' 8'' I just might qualify!

Product Description
The Classic Equine™ Wool Top Pad is a combination of three layers. The top is a heavy, custom weave of 100% New Zealand wool for long lasting durability, with oil tan wear leathers. The ½" thick memory foam middle layer continuously conforms to the shape of the horse's back then returns to its original shape when pressured is removed, which helps minimize pressure points and relieves body stress. The bottom layer is a 5/8" orthopedic-grade felt that helps soak up moisture, allowing heat to dissipate away from your horses back while helping maintain shock absorption.
· Sweat and grime can be rinse away
· Felt and fleece are cut out through the leg area to allow a close leg contact for better feel

Climbed solo on my birthday in conjunction with Kephart and Charlies Bunion. Started at Newfound Gap and used Boulevard and AT. Quite a bit of snow on the trail and did not see a soul the entire day, extremely rare for the Smokies. As a bonus, saw 3 elk while driving out of the park towards Cherokee. A most excellent birthday. | ||

First hike ever. Did this with my father and grandfather when I was four years old. I guess this is where I got hooked :) Don't really remember too much except that we ran into a couple of black bears and stayed at the shelter on top of the mountain and based on the pictures it has changed. Back then it was just the stone and chain link. | ||

An incredible trip for my first experience in the Smokies. Lot's of ice on the trail and quite difficult without crampons. 10 degrees at the top, but comfy night in my sleeping bag!! A late night ice storm made for a tricky descent the following day. Next time, I'll bring crampons. | ||

Perfect winter day on Leconte. Used crampons on the icy ledges for most of the way above the Alum bluffs. A few dicey spots due to rotten ice but it added to the fun. Thanks to Rusty, the lodge caretaker, who kindly pointed me to the summit cairn. Beautiful views near the true summit and from Cliff Top. It warmed up in the afternoon and there was lots of slippery slush on the way down. Tip for winter Leconte climbers - don't stand under the icicles at Alum Cave... | ||

Mount Leconte was a nice easy summit to make. I really enjoyed the hike up to the summit. Although it was raining and about 45 on top with wind gust of up to 35 or so, I had a blast and I only wish I'd had a better view through the mist. The Cliff's on Leconte were pretty nice to. All in all it was 15 mile round day trip. Great overall hike with the falls along the way, subalpine scenery, a black bear and some deer!~October 2, 2004~ | ||

Cool hike through hemlocks to the Alum Cave where huge icicles hung down dripping in the morning sun. Periodically they would break off and come crashing down, shattering on the rocks below. It was pretty cool and maybe a little bit hazardous. The trail above here is in terrible shape and barely 18 inches wide in a couple spots with pretty steep dropoffs. Here, and in other exposed sections they have eyebolted cables to the rock face for handholds. Nice views across the Great Smoky Mountains along the way and at the top. The best hike that I did that week in GSMNP! | ||

I started at 7:00am in the moring and reached the Le Conte lodge around 11:00 pm (at a slow pace). After grabbing a quick snack, I hiked to the summit of Le Conte. After snapping a few pictures, I ate lunch at the Cliff Tops and then started back down. I reached the trail head at 3:00 pm (slow pace). This is nice and relaxing. Although steep in certain spots, it is well worth the climb. | ||

While the experts carried the discussion, members did take the time to reiterate party talking points on the cliff. Casey, the committee chair, stressed the need to lower taxes on middle-class Americans while letting them rise for the wealthiest taxpayers. Meanwhile, Republican Rep. Michael Burgess of Texas blasted the president's plan as out of balance, with too much in revenue and not enough in spending cuts.
After the hearing, Casey acknowledged the White House's proposal, by both economists' estimation, requires more spending cuts with respect to revenues, but he said the coming weeks will bring more ideas from both sides.
"I think you're going to see a lot of different proposals back and forth," said Casey. Ultimately, though, he said he is confident lawmakers have enough in common that they can come to agreement by the end of the year.
"I think both sides understand the gravity of the problem," he said.

"I enjoy assisting international students as they adapt to life in Newcastle, by connecting them with support services and encouraging them to become involved in campus life.
"I believe it is important for international students to enjoy their time studying abroad, and leave Australia with lifelong friends and happy memories."
Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic and Global Relations) Professor Kevin McConkey applauded Mr Vigneswaran's commitment to the university community.
"His efforts to increase cultural understanding in the local community are inspirational," Professor McConkey said.
"The university is proud to support such an exemplary role model for domestic and international students."

He is President of the University of Newcastle's Malaysian Youth Society; a member of the national Malaysian Students' Council of Australia; a Newcastle University Student Association (NUSA) council member; and serves on the Council of International Students Australia, the peak national body for international students, as welfare officer.

-- -- -- President Obama returned to the White House after a three day trip through southeast Asia.
With stops in Cambodia and Thailand and Burma tomorrow -- president takes part and -- yearly presidential tour and it tradition.
The pardoning of the national Thanksgiving Turkey and the Rose Garden.
The prime minister of Israel reiterating tonight that no cease fire deal has been reached yet.
He told reporters that Israel will take whatever action is necessary.
To defend its people but standard -- diplomatic resolution would be.
-- joining us now Fox -- national security analyst.
Former pentagon official KT McFarland former US ambassador to the United Nations Fox News contributor John -- Doctor -- -- Fox News Middle Eastern affairs analyst.
You'll be joining us here in just a matter of moments he's -- me turn to you first.
Is it your sense that a deal has been reached between Hamas and Israel.
I think because -- has probably apathy objectives that it wanted to accomplish -- -- -- take out.
The missiles in Gaza but we think that this is all about Israel and Hamas and Gaza it's not it's all about Iran.
It's all about Israel having the ability six months down the road.
Still if it feels it needs to take a preemptive strike against Iran's nuclear sites and not -- Retaliate directly against Israel so why are they doing what they're doing with Gaza they want to take out 101000 missiles in Gaza particularly long range missiles.
Capable of reaching the population centers in -- Europe and by doing -- -- like a preemptive attack.
And -- -- have a preemptive attack and I think they've accomplished that and they're ready to deal.
Effectively John.
KG saying that -- conditioning the battleground and they -- eliminated if you will.
The right -- do you concur.
Well I hope that's right but I don't think so I'm indeed the fact is that the Iran aliens have been smuggling these longer range rockets and for some time we we thought they might have this capability.
Really going back to 2006.
That this is a demonstration that they've got at least some of it.
But I think the very fact that Israel mobilize thirty thousands of reservists.
Was some indication that they didn't think they had achieved everything I -- -- of the pressure that they've been under not to go -- on the ground has been.
Unbelievable although the Obama administration has been saying publicly Israel has a right to defend itself.
The real message that Secretary Clinton is delivering to Netanyahu is don't even think about.
Going in on the -- and I can -- -- had just come back from Paris yesterday the Europeans are already heading for the exits a -- -- deeply afraid.
The consequences of an Israeli.
Ground incursion and I think Netanyahu has looked around.
And doesn't see any support so I think Israel's gonna end up here in a weaker strategic position having made the threat but not carried out.
Let's follow up on the out of that KT and when and John I just wanna follow up on on your suggestion that whether you're exposed here.
The Europeans have never been particularly helpful and at times a conflict to the Israelis so -- certainly shouldn't be here.
I would think a surprise to them -- Now -- -- -- guarantee it'll comes from the financial aid to Egypt as part of this sort of bigger package.
I think that if you look at where did this start it started in October and late October when their -- -- bombing of a Sudanese.
Missile factory in -- that was Israel during the first step of -- take out those missiles.
That were ultimately going to end up in Gaza through that analysis as investor bonds -- -- But the second part of it I think Israel was waiting for the opportunity and when Hamas at its normal -- -- few missiles over the border into Israel.
Israel's had -- this is claimed this -- make my day and so it could retaliate.
With absolute just caused.
-- women take out the missile batteries and arsenal's.
And from what I gather they've achieved probably 90% of what that is about to do so from mr.
as my view I do I disagree I think there are much better position now than they work.
And and put themselves in a much better position for six months now.
Well you know I don't I don't have any relatives in Israel so I don't have anything now on the line one way or the other but I Italian the fact that you've got Mohamed Morrissey as president of Egypt.
Is a very different strategic situation and Hosni Mubarak.
He at least turned a blind guy is these missiles were being smuggled into Gaza vis -- -- the long range missiles in particular.
Are pretty -- hard to hide on the back of a goat.
So so this is that this was considerable logistical effort to to get however many.
-- the longer range missiles and that they've got in and -- security.
In the Sinai continuing to deteriorate.
I have to believe if Iran wants to put more missiles -- it can and ultimately this is about Iran it's not about.
Is it also and doctoral in farms has joined us now -- Is this also about Turkey as well as -- aspirations of Iran.
And is there a sense that Iran wants to engage here wants to broaden this conflict.
And and move ahead with the confrontation rather than withdraw.
It's absolutely an Iranian strategic decision to do two things.
Number one it's still put pressure on the Israelis adds depth proceeding in Syria as the Iran onions are proceeding supporting asset.
As that proceeding and strengthening Hezbollah and Lebanon.
As Japanese trading Iraq we have to look at the region as a whole plot told between that and -- and Iran.
And there's a civil war in -- those who are bothering Iran and Syria -- You know the Muslim Brotherhood and other insurgents so it -- -- deflect attention from Syria.
Iran is supposed to be the one to encourage some factions within Hamas to start chatting -- Israelis knowing it's predictable that is -- is that gonna retaliate.
The Muslim Brotherhood president in Egypt.
This is not -- timing but he cannot but support Hamas when Hamas is attacked or confident that by the Israelis and are -- We can we know can we say publicly you must support.
What he does privately.
Could be quite different -- -- I think I think that the most about the -- governments and North Africa.
Had a different plan they want to take their time to support strategically Hamas and that's still struggling on the inside.
That explains that in public -- support Hamas and so is the case of started to answer a question.
pentagon is not ready right now to confront.
Anything it has to do with the Arab Israeli conflict but his public position has to align with Hamas and with -- the real.
Competition is between Iran and issue of this walking.
The real conference.
Nation may be -- but the real money is coming from.
The United States and the that your US led International Monetary Fund.
Which and in addition to that area billion and a half dollars of president Obama's passport John Bolton.
They -- -- put forward almost five billion dollars in guarantees.
And this is whatever else it is -- are radical Islamist state the Muslim Brotherhood led.
The Egyptian government it is it is strangle.
In an economy that is simply not working.
The United States and Europe have the trump cards period in this is that an incorrect statement in your judgment.
Yes because the IMF deal has started inside -- -- has that that credit line out there.
I think what's going on in Egypt is that there's a struggle between well -- there's an idea this was reached today they have not been funded if -- major.
So yeah but the deals done.
Well I it was not done until the money's in their hands and there -- dry conditions like acquiescence of judgment and reason that -- was necessary component.
As you as you correctly pointed out the Europeans are not gonna put pressure on Egypt more stable get his money from the IMF I think the struggle where we -- I'm really -- -- I interject John.
I truly believe it's -- fair statement to say the United States will habits will.
With the I am map and what it does in this instance that -- -- -- we have my wrong.
What will say at a couple weeks I I think the real struggle here is between -- -- is ideological.
In stinks on the one hand and elements of the Egyptian security structure the military and the intelligence services on the other.
Who despite more -- best efforts still understand where their bread is buttered.
So -- -- has say it hit his line is less concerned with.
The outside day economic factors than it is with dealing with the military.
Which still is not entirely comparable to say the least with his style of government but no doubt what he will try and do.
Is find a way to prop up those elements of Hamas that want to keep this struggle going maybe not today but in a month or six months will be back here.
Incidence -- over the course of history -- that the last -- I think we're seeing is a big surprise in office he was walking a very -- -- tight -- if he was to -- much in favor of Israel.
I'm not tough enough on the Israelis -- the Americans he -- had a problem on his flank with his radical extremists on the other hand.
If he decided -- that peace treaty if he was too cozy with Hamas -- risks losing all that aid and without that money in the egyptians are starving in the streets.
I think he actually played it pretty well now whether he can -- -- the agreement and prevent more missiles coming in more weapons coming in we will wasting.
Paula thank you very much John thank you appreciated thinking -- -- and much more.

A Year in the Life.. Sheffield Hallam's Mental Wealth Group!
We caught up with Rachel Staniforth, the group leader of Sheffield Hallam's Mental Wealth Group, 'Hallam Head Space'. Here she tells us about various achievements over the past year from campaigning about exam stress to fostering a joined up approach to wellbeing promotion on campus and in the local community.
"Hallam Head Space is affiliated to Mental Wealth UK, a charity committed to promoting positive wellbeing on university campuses. The group was launched in January 2012 and is fully student-led. Head Space have aimed to "Break the Silence" on mental health issues among students and so far, we appear to be succeeding. We have run a variety of events with the aim of providing an outlet for students to talk to others in similar situations, get involved in various activities and ultimately – to tackle stress. We have developed a 'Survival Guide' containing advice on: eating well, exercising, budgeting and seeking help and we frequently give away revision materials, including: pens, notebooks and bottled water. Recently we have hosted a petting zoo at both campuses in order to provide students with a break from exam stresses.
Hallam Head Space has also been dedicated to breaking down the barriers between students and the wider community. We started by tackling the barrier between students and university services. Since January 2012, we have run events in conjunction with Student Wellbeing, developed relationships with the Careers and Employment Service, and made contacts within the Development and Society department.

Faithfully amplifies your guitar's sound in smaller venues.
The AG60 acoustic guitar amp is capable of handling up to four inputs, making it perfect for performing singer-songwriters, duos, or groups looking for an easy and great-sounding way to amplify multiple instruments and voices without having to cart around multiple pieces of gear.
The AG60 is designed to maximize projection, with its angled-up wedge shape. For warm, full-frequency sound, the cabinet features 2 - 8" studio monitor-style speakers for soft mid and low-frequency response and a coaxial tweeter for ultra-clear, sparkling high end. Channels 1 & 2 each feature two combination inputs which both accept a 1/4'" unbalanced or XLR balanced input, so you can plug in a variety of instrument/microphone combinations. Input level controls accommodate a variety of level needs, and peak indicators warn you when your signal is getting too hot. Three-band EQs with sweepable midrange on each channel make it easy to get a solid instrument tone on one and clear vocal sound on the other.
Also included on each channel is a selectable effects unit with 16 possible effects, including reverbs, delays, and choruses. Additionally, the rear panel has an effects loop for using external effects units with or without the built-in choices. A master input gives you greater control over your tone and output when used in conjunction with the input gain knobs.
For quiet playing, there's an 1/8" stereo headphone jack, and for pre-recorded accompaniment, there's an 1/8" stereo aux input. Finally, rear-panel balanced or unbalanced line outs with independent level control afford you more control when you send your signal to a live sound PA or recording console. The AG60 is a full-featured amp, with plenty of power to handle any venue, and a wide array of tone-shaping options that will give your instrument and voice the exact care they deserve.

Uta von Schwedler was found dead in the bathtub of her Sugarhouse home in Sept. 2011.
After pressure from Uta's family and friends, investigators are taking another look at the case a year later.
In 2011, a medical examiner ruled Uta's death a drowning and found high levels of Xanex in her system. She also had cuts and bruises on her body consistent with self-defense injuries, although they may have been self-inflicted.
Investigators said Uta may have tried to kill herself.
"That's the whole piece that's completely ludicrous," Nils Abramson, Uta's former boyfriend, said. "She had no health problems, no work problems, no relationship problems."
Uta's ex-husband, Dr. John Wall, was questioned, but never named a suspect. At the time of Uta's death, police questioned Wall. He told police he did not know where he was the time of the shooting.
"We all know it was not a suicide," Abramson said. "It has to be a homicide."
District Attorney Sim Gill will meet with Salt Lake Police investigators in the next couple of weeks when they finish their investigation to screen the case and determine if any criminal charges should be filed.
"I'm happy," he added. "It's finally going to get its day, not in court, but front of the D.A."

Buster Posey has returned to his 2010 breakout season form, hitting .303 and leading the San Francisco Giants with 42 RBI during the 2012 season. / ASSOCIATED PRESS
Now that Florida State baseballs season has officially come to an end, its time to take a look at the crop of former Seminoles who have made their way to the major leagues.
Florida State has historically been a productive program when it comes to getting players drafted, producing 19 first round picks in the programs history and 62 players overall who have at least made an appearance in the majors.
Currently, the program is represented by a relatively small contingent of former players in the bigs that is headlined by Buster Posey. Heres a look at Posey and a few other Seminoles in the major leagues.
Buster Posey, San Francisco Giants:
Posey, the former Seminole All-American who dominated college baseball as a hitter, became a World Series champion as a member of the 2010 San Francisco Giants in his rookie season. Posey quickly made a name for himself and assumed a big role for the Giants soon after being inserted into the lineup as a call-up, and was named rookie of the year for the 2010 season.
Posey has continued that success in 2012 after a difficult 2011. A catcher, Posey was involved in a horrific collision attempting to block a base runner from reaching home and suffered a severe leg injury that ended his season.
But this year, Posey has regained the form of his breakout campaign, hitting .303 and leading the Giants with 42 RBI. His consistent production has earned him a spot on the NL All-Star starting roster along with teammates Melky Cabrera and Pablo Sandoval. Posey set a record for number of all-star votes received by a player.
Shane Robinson, St. Louis Cardinals:
Robinson is enjoying a breakout of his own on the major league level, though its a less impactful one than Poseys grand debut was. After leaving Florida State after the 2006 season, Robinson had only played in 20 games in the majors heading into 2012. But this year, Robinson has held his own on the defending World Series champion Cardinals, appearing in 60 games. Robinson is hitting .252, has registered 31 hits in 60 games, and has homered twice en route to 11 RBI.
Barret Browning, St. Louis Cardinals:
Browning, who also played his last season in Garnet and Gold in 2006, is the newest member of the fraternity of Seminoles in the majors, having made his debut this past Sunday, July 1. Browning pitched two perfect innings in relief against Pittsburgh, allowing no hits, no walks and collecting his first career strikeout. Browning and Robinson create an interesting Seminole dynamic in St. Louis that only stands to grow with 2012 standout James Ramsey being the Cardinals first round pick last month.
Stephen Drew, Arizona Diamondbacks:
Drew is among the 19 first round selections from Florida State, joining the impressive club after being selected 15th overall by Arizona in 2004. Drew has been solid, but not spectacular, and is currently fresh off a lengthy stay on the disabled list, having made his 2012 debut on June 27 after suffering a severe injury last July. Drew has played in just four games so far this season and has two hits.
