INDIANAPOLIS — When Monte Kiffin coordinated Tampa Bay's suffocating defense in the 1990s and 2000s, his list of linchpin players included one of the NFL's greatest defensive tackles.
Unfortunately for Kiffin, the Dallas Cowboys' current roster doesn't include another Warren Sapp.
"It is very important," Kiffin said of employing a disruptive three-technique in his 4-3, Tampa-2 scheme. "We'll figure it out."
That process begins today when the Cowboys' coaches and scouts join owner Jerry Jones at Lucas Oil Stadium to study draft prospects at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Given the outstanding depth at defensive tackle in the 2013 NFL draft, there's been plenty of speculation Dallas could use its first pick — No. 18 — to find a Sapp wannabe to bolster Kiffin's efforts to transform the defense from a 3-4 look to a 4-3.
"It is flat-out loaded," ESPN analyst Mel Kiper Jr. said of the defensive tackle position.
That's good news for the Cowboys, who are thin at the position. In addition to Josh Brent being arrested for intoxication manslaughter in December, Jay Ratliff is in the dog house after an injury-plagued 2012 season that included a locker room dust-up with Jones and a DWI arrest last month.
"You can find defensive tackles well into the draft," Kiper said. "You're talking about 16 front-seven players going in the first round, and a lot of those guys are tackles."
In addition to defensive tackle, Dallas has needs at offensive line, defensive end, safety, linebacker, cornerback and receiver going into the April 25-27 draft.
Free agency begins March 12, but a dicey salary-cap situation likely will prevent the Cowboys from being players. Just to get below the projected $122 million cap, Dallas must make several moves, including restructuring deals, cutting veterans and possibly signing quarterback Tony Romo to an extension.
With that in mind, success in this draft is crucial for a team that has finished 8-8 the last two seasons and hasn't been to the playoffs since 2009. Fortunately for Dallas, there are plenty of defensive tackles in the draft that fit Kiffin's scheme, which calls for linemen to penetrate the pocket rather than absorb blockers like they did in the 3-4.
"You take the fight to them with quickness," said defensive line coach Rod Marinelli, Kiffin's top lieutenant. "We're not absorbing. We're about getting up the field and attacking."
Florida underclassman Sharrif Floyd would be a perfect fit for that approach.
"He's the prototypical three-technique and he's going to be a big-time impact player," NFL.com draft analyst Mike Mayock said of Floyd, who is 6-foot-3 and 303 pounds. "What is most important about this kid is his explosion.
"He reminds me, and I'm not going to say he's ever going to be Warren Sapp, but it's that type of first-step explosion."
But Kiper said Floyd's stock "is skyrocketing up the draft board," which means the Cowboys would have to trade up to have a shot at him.
Some other defensive tackles touted as first-round picks are Utah's Star Lotulelei, Missouri's Sheldon Richardson, Ohio State's Johnathan Hankins, Georgia's Jonathan Jenkins, Alabama's Jesse Williams and Purdue's Kawann Short.
"It's a loaded group," Kiper said. "You can also find defensive tackles in rounds two, three and four. If you need nose tackles, if you need three-techniques, you got it all covered in this draft."

After surgeries, radiation and a 60-pound weight gain, Sarah Alcantara climbs the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge, day after day.
Sarah Alcantara
Age: 23Born: Bristol, Va.Occupation: Waitress and bartender at Red Lobster in West AshleyDiagnosis: Medullary thyroid cancer in February 2011. Doctors removed her thyroid gland and a tumor that had started growing over her heart.Turning point: "Last October, I stepped on the scale and was horrified at how much weight I had gained. Gaining 60 pounds was unreal to me."Her goal: To finish the Cooper River Bridge Run, her first 10KHer charity: One of a two-person team called Team Lobster (teamlobsterchs.com) that is raising money for Camp Happy Days.Her motto: "Training for the Bridge Run has shown me that I am not what happened to me. I can be whatever I choose to become."On Instagram: MRS_ALCANTARA
She says she's not a runner, that she didn't always have confidence. She's working on that.
"Training has only proved to me that I am not what happened to me," the 23-year-old says of preparing for the Cooper River Bridge Run. "I am what I choose to become."
Tens of thousands will lace up running shoes and stretch their hamstrings and quads Saturday morning to trek 150 feet above the Cooper River and conquer the true mountain of Mount Pleasant. For 36 years, runners and walkers have set the Cooper River bridge — now the Ravenel — as an inspirational beacon in overcoming obstacles and tragedies — divorce, loss of a loved one, illness or a recommitment to healthy living.
"So many people start these goals for themselves. They've never run before and then they run the bridge and they tell their friends about it," says race Director Julian Smith. "And it sets a domino effect."
Alcantara, a waitress and a bartender at the Red Lobster in West Ashley, intends to conquer the bridge. She has been documenting her training on the social media site Instagram (MRS_ALCANTARA), her posts offering a humorous mix of attitude and humility.
She strikes a goofy pose with a leg extended in one picture, holds a Bridge Run poster with a thumbs up in another and flexes her right bicep in yet another shot while puckering her lips. Most of her posts include a calendar with the number of days left before the run.
"She's the kind of people who keeps that smile on and keeps the people around her happy," says Morton Marianni, her boss at the Red Lobster in Cherry Hill, N.J., where she moved from.
'She's real decisive'
Alcantara didn't always have something to smile about.
In February 2011, a doctor diagnosed her with medullary thyroid cancer. That meant removing her thyroid gland and a tumor that had started growing over her heart.
Without her thyroid, which helps control metabolism and provide energy, Alcantara lost her motivation and began gaining weight — 60 pounds in the span of one year.
By Halloween, Alcantara was disheartened when the little black dress she bought for a party didn't fit. That wardrobe frustration changed everything. It was then she made up her mind to run.
"She's real decisive," says her husband, 24-year-old Bruno Alcantara, who hails from Anapolis, Brazil. He works at Red Lobster too, and also serves as a motor vehicle transportation specialist for the Army Reserve. "Whenever she wants something, she'll go and do it."
Since deciding to run, Alcantara has lost 35 pounds. She's never run a 10K before. But then again, this has nothing to do with being the fastest.
"I feel that the biggest hurdle I'm facing is to feel accomplished again," says Alcantara, originally from Bristol, Va.
Mission to finish
In the days leading up to the race, Alcantara has been running a 10-minute-mile pace. Last week she practiced short-distance sprints up the bridge's steeper incline, catching her breath and talking about her plans. She and Bruno have a dream of living on four corners of the continental United States. Red Lobster has assured them it will provide employment where they move to next.
The couple met in Cherry Hill in December 2010 and married in May 2011. They moved to Charleston in March 2012, and they will head to Vancouver in June. After that they will land somewhere in California. They're not sure.
Alcantara says her younger years are the right time to allow her and Bruno to roam.
As for whether the cancer will return, she says she's not sure whether doctors are being optimistic for her that it won't, or if they truly are optimistic. She celebrated one year in remission in February. If the cancer doesn't reappear in another four years, she is considered cancer-free.
For now, Alcantara lives similarly to how she will run the race Saturday morning. She intends to finish.
And like the words tattooed across her chest above the place where cancer once thrived, she knows "today is a gift."

The World is in the middle of the Christmas Buzz and so are (most) of our riders. As always the "Cöre Crüe"-Team-Radar will provide a snapshot of where our team riders currently are and what they're doing. This is the X-Mas Edition.
Chris Bösch spent the pre-Christmas days in Fortaleza for some last-minute Christmas shopping. On the 20th his girlfriend, daughter and he left for Paracuru and will be spending Christmas there. The area has a lot to offer at this time of year with the town square and church being lovingly decorated, a Christmas tree being set up and with Father Christmas entertaining the kids – at 30 degree Celsius!
Phillip Zach left the same day as Chris. From Fortaleza he first flew to Caracas and then on to Puerta la Cruz, located across from Isla Margarita. He'll be spending the festive season with his girlfriend and her family. If there's wind he'll be on the water; if there is no wind he'll do the tourist thing and explore the areas many caves and table mountains.
After a couple of months in Brazil, David finds himself back home – in Barcelona. His kite gear however is still in transit somewhere between Lisbon and Fortaleza – hold thumbs!
After 3 months he's also back at work. As a fireman he had to work on the 24th and spent the evening, on call, with colleagues. The remaining days will be spent with friends and family and with a little bit of luck – snowboarding in the Andes. At the moment there is not enough snow.
The New Year will then have a typical Spanish start – eating a grape for each "dong" that the clock makes when it strikes 12. Success brings good fortune for the New Year. Soon thereafter he departs for the Canary Islands and the first waves of the New Year.
Marilou, for a change, didn't spend Christmas this year sleeping in a Board bag or selling Christmas trees in New York. Instead she's spending the Festive season with her family in Montreal. Even if there is currently only a couple of cm of snow on the ground, snow kiting in the next couple of days – with the whole family of course – could be on the cards. Christmas Eve was spent in Church followed by a nice big family dinner.
It would not be fitting for Beany, who's not the biggest fan of the Church, to celebrate the second most important Church festival. His comments were very colorful but we thought it best not to capture them here.
He'll spend the days at home with his dad and mom, who cooks the best vegetable-tofu dishes, resting, catching up, meditating and running.
Tim and Lasse will be spending Christmas at home in Germany. Weather permitting – and the wind forecast is looking good – they'll be kiting festively in St. Peter-Ording. Unfortunately Lasse will only be able to dream kite from the beach as he's still recovering from his knee op.
Matze considered spending Christmas in Germany but he'll start the day with a "Braai" in Cape Town.
Robert Kidnie will be spending Christmas in Mui Ne, Vietnam. Only 7% of the 88 Million people in Vietnam are Christian, so celebrations take place on a smaller scale. The Christmas season also coincides with the Typhoon season, which means either too much or too little wind for lessons. So he'll be searching for spots along the coast where the wind is just perfect.
He'll be spending Christmas Eve with friends in one of the better Hotel in Mui Ne for Buffet. After overindulging he'll roll home and Skype with family – which makes it easy to talk to everyone at once.
Life is a journey. Kiteboarding has taken us to the best spots on the planet and allowed us to get to know the local kiters from all corners of the globe. At the same time we have been able to delve into the technology behind the products that we use on a daily basis and catch a glimpse behind the scenes of the kite industry. There are many interesting characters behind the products and it became clear to us, that CORE is not only made up of a team from the Fehmarn Island but instead is made up of people from the world's beaches. Therefore we became a part of something much bigger.
The idea behind our web-experiment CoreNation is to allow us to share our experiences with you. We want to take you with us on our journeys and share our adventures, experiences and our daily work with you. Enjoy!

Insulated Six-Pack Holder, Red 2 2
Great Gift!!! I felt good giving this as a gift...it's unique and useful! I liked this Insulated Pack so much that I'm going to order another one for me! January 9, 2014
This thing is so cool! I bought two of these; one for myself and one to donate to a silent auction benefitting the Las Vegas Texas A&M Club's scholarship fund. I'm gonna load it up with a six-pack of Shiner Bock, then sit back and enjoy the bidding war! The sturdy neoprene individual sleeves prevent the longnecks from clinking together and breaking. MUCH better than one of the "usual" zip-flap insulated six-pack carriers... January 26, 2011

It goes both ways.
I'm not sure if it was covered in the multitude of comments, but hopefully a man can explains that it's about respecting ones significant other and not disrespecting the opposite gender.
Hopefully he can expand on the subject by equating that his wife/sister/mother cannot shake a man's hand either and they are not considered misandrists for doing so.
Being a Baal Teshuvah women's wear designer, this is my biggest test.

Of course I think he should not be penalized for his religious customs. As a secular Jew I belong to an Orthodox synagogue because I like the Rabbi, Rebbitzen and members. I have respect for their customs and rules and I appreciate their adherence to them. I learn much about our religion every time I am with them.

What You Need to Know: iPhone 2.2 and Jailbreaking
Ok, so here we have yet another update on the Dev Team's blog. This time they tell us everything we want to know about the 2.2 firmware and jailbreaking.
blockquote>So, as anticipated our friends the misfits have recently released the long awaited 2.2 update. We can confirm that this update SHOULD NOT be applied using iTunes if you want the chance of a soft-unlock in the near future. If you want to keep that option of a 'soft-unlock in the near future' available but you want the new features of 2.2, you will be able to update to 2.2 using a PwnageTool created custom ipsw file that disables the baseband update. You will be able to do this using an updated version of PwnageTool that will be released sometime soon.
Notice the "to be released soon" part? Yeah, so did we. For a full list of facts regarding the firmware and jailbreaking please proceed to the Dev Team post. The most important fact to be aware of is if do update to 2.2 right now and are jailbroken you will not only lose the jailbreak but you will not be able to jailbreak 2.2 until they release their new PWNage tool. So, proceed with caution out there.
Of course, when they do release said 2.2 PWNage, you know we'll be all over it.

What You Need to Know: iPhone 2.2 and Jailbreaking
If you have a jailbroken iPhone, have already backed up any data from jailbroken apps, and do not care about a future soft-unlock, is it safe to apply this update, and worry about re-jailbreaking in a few weeks? Can you apply the update on a jailbroken phone, or do you have to restore to a non-jailbroken state first, then update?
But I thought that unlocking was done via BootNeuter changing the baseband. As far as I know (if you have a 1st generation iPhone) the 2.2 update does not update your baseband, so the phone should still be unlocked. One other problem if you update via iTunes is that it might require re-activation.
Just to explain, and I have just done this today so it does work, I was on a pwned 2G iPhone at 2.1 f/w without jailbreak but with unlock, I updated to 2.2 with iTunes (note, do not update your itunes, it could break the unlock), and the unlock stayed in tact, i was still activated, can make calls, use youtube, everything! Don't worry about updating, you'll just lose the unlock.
Of course, is something DOES go wrong, then you can restore back to a custom, pwned 2.1 f/w version (mkae sure you pwn your iphone again. It should be safe to update to 2.2 again after this, otherwise just stay at 2.1, if something goes worng.
I updated via iTunes with an unlocked 2g running 2.1....I did not have a jailbreak only unlock previously. Update worked fine and the unlock remains...it appears that the baseband for the 2g is not changed. So if you do not need your jailbreak apps or never were interested in the first place...proceed...you will still be unlocked.
Thank you for your response -- I just finished updating to 2.2 I did not update iTunes first, but updating my jailbroken (not unlocked) 2.1 to vanilla 2.2 went off without a hitch. My jailbroken apps are gone, of course, but, oddly enough, my numeric battery indicator from BossPrefs was present, at least until I went into settings and changed something else -- makes me wonder if any other data is still there, just inaccessible.
I need help i am not tech savy, i accidently upgraded my iphone running 2.1 unlock and jailbreak to newest ver 2.2 now my phone is locked, can any one walk me through how to downgrade to version 2.1 again. or where i can get custom pewen 2.1 firmware .Any input will be greatly appreciated.
I was jailbroken on 2.0.2 but decided to forego that on 2.1. when i was jailbroken, I changed the battery icon to numeric display. For some reason, that display remained, even without jailbreaking post 2.1 update. I installed 2.2 and the numeric display persists... which is fine... just unexpected. Also, my update took 3 hours to backup... is it possible that remnants of jailbreak are getting in the way... permissions or something?
I don't care about the jailbreak…app store is all need…but I am currently unlocked, 2.1, using Cincinnati bell. If I just update via iTunes do I lose my current unlock? Thanks!
Several reports indicate that your scenario is safe. You retain the "unlock" and "activation", but lose "jailbreak" (which you don't care about anyway...)
I have an iPhone 2g jailbroken and also unlocked with tmobile. I have everything working In my current estate(2.1), data, mms and a couple of cidia app.
I really want to update, I read that is a safe procedure for 2g iPhone but I'm not sure can anyone clarify me? Thank you
They say to update without iTunes but I don't get it. According to my sources, pwn tool hasn't gotten an update yet to suppor ver 2.2 and still they say that is doable if you have a 2g iPhone. Is it done via the pwn tool as well just as it was done for 2.1 do we create an isw file and then use the image, please help if you know any of this
Info: iPhone 3g, OS 2.2, iTunes 8.02
A client tried jailbreaking yesterday. Turned out he had accepted the 2.2 update. It doesn't work. In fact it makes the iPhone crash as much as OS 2.0
Ok so, I have iphone 3g and I really want to update my iphone to the new 2.2 firmware. I dont need to do a software unlock because I am using a TURBO SIM. However I am wondering if it will still work with the new 2.2 firmware once I use quickpwn for windows.......
Does anyone know if it will work.....I had to recently take my iphone back to apple and got a new one because when i updated to 2.2 my turbo sim would not work....I want to know if I use the quickpwn app will my TURBO SIM WORK???? also do i first need to update via itunes to 2.2???? I am currently running a jailbroken 2.1 firmware
Please help thanks
I have a 3G and stupidly updated to 2.2 and my turbo sim no longer works its just loses signal and says "no service" so I guess I am going to have to wait for a 2.2 compatible turbo sim.
I paid 400 pounds for a pay as you go version in the UK from and authorised retailer - thats a lot of money I should be able to be use with any network. All this does, is put me off buying any apple products again (and I've had about 5 ipods over the years) as they are just money grabbing bastards!!! It would cost me $5 a minute just to send and receive calls on the official sim I got the phone and $1 to send SMS.
Every step of the way they are there just ready to take a little more change out of your pocket :[
I have a 3g, O/S 2.2 through my local service provider.I do not need to unlock, only jailbreak. I was originally 2.1 but when I tried the pwnage my iphone went black. I had to restore and to my knowledge itunes updated my iphone without me accepting. Is this possible or was I just too anxious to get my iphone working again and did not see the updater ask me to do this? I want to try this again for my O/S 2.2 but am now a little hesitant.
@ macaronicaesar
The pwn tool that will handle the 2.2 ver is not out as right now, just wait for the updated ver.
Pretty much all websites that discuss the 2.2 version point out to 3g users unlocked not to update as the service would be rendered useless so, don't blame apple. You were not supposed to unlock, did it so be responsible. Now hope for a future unlock by the agile guys at iphode dev to come out with a solution or ur screwed for not reading.
i have the new iphone just got ver 2.2 with firmware 2.28 it's jailbroken and i use a universal sim to get on the tmobile network, but it is not working what do i need to do and which itunes version can i use without having a problem to load music and video to the iphone till the dev team figures it out...please be specific as i am new to this and trying to figure it all out
@ muhamma
Basically you do not have firmware 2.28 you have version 2.2 and basically read up on the post, if you updated you are screwed. Turbo sim doesn't work after the update because it changes the baseband. So now put that iPhone away from now till the guys at iPhone-dev find a solution,
hey everyone, please be patient with me b/c i am more then a few levels below you guys on the food chain when it comes to this stuff....
i just got my 3g iphone last week and updated to 2.2 bc i didnt know any better. i am more then happy with at&t and have no interest in unlocking the phone, but i do wish to jaibreak it.is it possible to do one without doing the other? and lastly does itunes stil funtcion as normal for music and what not if i jailbreak it?
I am assuming you got the iPhone unlocked from the company for $$$$ since you are using a 3g and under 2.2 is unlocked. If you are interested in jailbraking you should have stated with 2.1 as 2.2 is not currently jailbreakable.
They pwntool will be shortly updated to jailbrake the phone. But unlike the 2g, there is not a soft unlock for the 3g just yet. Basically, just wait till it comes out, and see what they say, we are all in suspence right now
i am really not tech savvy and i am desperately in need of help with my iPhone that no longer recognises my mobile service provider...
here's the story
i have a 2G iphone bought from US in Mar08 and hand carried back to singapore. used Ziphone to unlock, jailbreak and activated the local mobile service in s'pore. was working fine all the while.
then came along 2.2. iTunes kept "hounding" me to upgrade whenever i charge the iphone... so, i downloaded 8.0.2 iTunes and 2.2 OS...ran them and well... the darn thing just got jammed at DFU mode... i tried using Ziphone but of cos, realized they dont handle >1.1.4...
promptly, after 10 hours of scouting the internet, downgraded iTunes to 7.5 and downloaded iphone firmware 1.1.4. loaded the iphone with 1.1.4 and proceeded to Unlock, Jailbreak and Activate, like I did in Mar08...
sure enough, the iphone got unlocked, jailbreaked BUT now, there just no mobile service ... to be sure, my SIM is working, i plugged that into another phone..and it works just fine..
i am truly in a jam...
please guys....what can i do?
hi i wondered if someone could help me, i have been reading the coments about the new 2.2, and would mess up your unlocked iphone, but does this matter if your iphone is from apple and is unlocked from them?
@ jenny, if you restored your 2g you might have a problem. If you updated your 2g to 2.2 you shouldn't have had any problems. My cousin has a 2g and flawlesly updated. Of course he pwn his phone with pwn tool and uocked it with cydia and all that using version 2.1 and went on to update to 2.2. The jailbrake was lost but the unlocked stayed intacted. I'm guessing during all that work you did you restored your iPhone to 2.2 using iTunes and that's a problem because it changes the baseband of the phone making itbprettybmuch unusable. The new pwn tool however might save you. It handles version 2.2. If I were you I would try doing that
What if my unlocked/jailbroken 2G is still on 1.1.4. I never updated to 2.0+ but now I want the app store from itunes 8+ since it seems to have some awesome free apps as well as pay ones, at least better that what I can get in installer. Anyway, I was wondering if I can just update to 2.2 and not restore to get the app store on my phone, even if I didn't use pwn to unlock it. Or do I have wait till 2.2 comes out and restore it to get the app store on there. I don't mind if I lose the jailbreak, I just want to keep the unlock (obviously).
there really is no problem updating what you should avoid is restoring as you would lose your unlock till they find how to hack it, if they ever. What you need to have in mind is that for the 2g the baseban was not changed so the unlock stays while the jailbrake is gone. You can safely update to 2.2 straight from your current 1.1.4 update only that installer will be gone. IN aldo heard that the pwntool has been updated so of hoy want yo jailbrake again, is a reallydsafe procedure.
Well no. I can pretty much assure you that all your info including contacts and mails and ..... Will be safe. Make sure you sync it before you update to make sure you have everything in place. Process to update and do not dare to restore as you would lose your unlock. You should be good though, do it
@ lethalinterjection. Ok, so I did the update, not the restore and now my phone is back in emergency call only screen and itunes says the SIM does not appear to be supported. How can I get out of this? Do I need to wait until 2.2 gets pwnd? Did I do something wrong? was I supposed to uninstall the jailbroken apps first?
I need help i am not tech savy, i accidently upgraded my iphone with itunes running 2.1 unlock and jailbreak to newest ver 2.2 now my phone is locked, can any one walk me through how to downgrade to version 2.1 again. or where i can get custom pewen 2.1 firmware .Any input will be greatly appreciated.
Here's what I need to know before jailbreaking my iPhone to 2.2
Ive got iTunes 126.96.36.199 and a jailbreaked 2.1 3g (locked). Is it safe to upgrade my phone to 2.2 and then jailbreak by using Winpwn (using windows).
My biggest worry is losing the feature of being able to put *.ipa files into iTunes and losing my current apps on my iPhone.
Can anyone conform that this won't be a problem???
@bamm man that's not right.
1 are you sure you have an iPhone 2.2
2 did not update itunes
3 you did not restore.
Since if you have and iPhone 2.G you are also able to downgrade to your old version using pwntool you should have no real problem.
If you are a pc user simply create a folder in your desktop download the psiw file that you wish to have( recommend the 2.1) that you cans get in iclarified.com along with all the required steps. Just have this in mind. For the 2g there was no change in the baseband and so you should be able to downgrade to 2.1 that was the last time the baseband was updated. Do this and pwnage as if you were doing it for the first time. After that you can try to update again. I also heard that the official version of the pwntool for 2.2 is out so you can try and do that. I can't verify that last part but the process that I mentioned to you should work (Downgrating to 2.1) hope it helps you
Aaraf you need to mention Whig iPhone you have, and just so you know, if it's the 3g you are screwed
@lethalinterjection. Before I heard back from you, I did check out quickpwn and decided to do the new 2.2. It worked great and gave e exactly what I wanted, the app store as well as installer and cydia, except for one thing: I have no service with T-mobile now. From googling, I have found that many people have had this problem. It seems that it was never actually unlocked and only jailbroken, but the option to choose never came up for 2.2, I plugged it in and followed the instructions. I'm hoping this is different for 2.1, so I will try to downgrade to that but I was wondering if I needed to downgrade my itunes since I do have the latest version. Also, before I run quickpwn 2.1, will I need to remove the other quickpwn software? Thanks for all of your help.
I just updated my unlocked iphone 2g to version 2.2 and it works fine without unlocking or anything, all I lost was my cydia and installer apps. I am kind of worried though because I don't have an iphone contract with my cellular provider (rogers), can the company tell that I have an iphone?
The way I did it and the way I was advising you was to simply update via iTunes. I used my girlfriend's iPhone 2g that was unlocked and jailbroken under 2.1 straight up updated using iTunes and the jailbrake was gone but everything else was ok. All the apps worked only that some requires updating or reinstalling but the tmobile thing worked just fine. The data plan aswell. I'll try to jailbrake hers today to see of I can help you and I'm guessing that you had your 2g unlocked with pwntool. I haven't checked the pwntool that allows for 2.2 to be jailbroken yet so I have no real concrete thoghts about what went wrong. What I can tell you for sure is that you can downgrade to 2.1 and you can fallow the instructions on icrarified for that and you should be ok again. Just run the process as if you were doing it for the first time, get back at me to see how that went. If you can, try getting the older version of iTunes, the 8.1, that's the one I used, just so that all the variables are taken care of and kept constant. Hope that works
Desperately need help i accidently upgraded my iphone with itunes running the lastest version with 2G iphone unlock and jailbreak to newest ver 2.2 now my phone is locked. can some one help me to unlock the phone again. i have used ziphone software to unlocked the iphone. any help towards this is greatly appreciated. thanks a lot in advance
@sunny and everybody else, when I get home tonight I will make a video on how to take iPhones 2gs that's have been mistakenly updated to 2.2 and lost the jailbrake and the unlock. I would paste a link to my video that will show you guys how to go back to 2.1 and unlock and jailbrake the phone again
Hi, just got an iPhone 3g about a week and a half ago. Im hesitant about jailbreaking because i don't wanna void my apple care warranty (I am a student and don't have any spare money laying around). Is there any way to erase any trace of jailbreaking so that in case something happens to my iPhone, I can take it in without them know that it was jailbroken?
i have updated my iphone 3g to 2.2 and was able to downgrade to 2.1 using a ziphone patch,im using a turbo sim and im able to make outgoing calls on my 2.1 iphone 3g ,but i am not able to recieve any incoming calls, it says user switched off ,this is because my modem firmware is still 2.28, it needs to be downgraded to 2.1,
the modem firmware did not downgrade when i downgraded from 2.2 to 2.1,
i am waiting for quickpwn to release the new quickPWN2.2beta software to fix this problem..
I think this is a great site first and foremost. I have a problem. I bought a brand new iphone weeks ago and jailbroke and unlocked it. Everything worked great for about 2 days w/edge and then took a dump on me. Thinking it was the sim I went out and bought a new Gevey 3g turbo sim. It worked again but 2-3 days later same thing. I was stumped for hours trying to get it to work again. I took my sim out and tried it with my girlfriends tmobile sim and it worked with hers. Thinking it was a new sim type. I requested a sim swap from tmobile and it worked for another 1 or 2 days and dumped on me again. It came with version 2.2(5g77) standard and modem firmware 02.28.00. After messing with it for a while I found out that when my sim no longer worked, I could take my girls sim out and pop her's in and works. Im confused HIGHLY. I have had the hardest time ever. I have tried buying a new sim and still nothing. Well now every day or 2 if i take the sim out when not working and swap them and make calls on a true tmobile phone and put it back in my 3g iphone it works for another day or 2. If not I get the No Service signal. Is this a bug they placed on the latest iphone out, Or am I have bad luck? Please Help
I have an unlocked 2G iPhone running v.2.0 of the firmware. I've read ALL the posts in this thread and it seems like I can safely allow iTunes to upgrade me to v.2.2.
The only question that still is not clear to me, though, is whether or not I need to downgrade iTunes to an earlier version before doing so. Right now, I am running iTunes v.8.0.2 (20). If I do need to downgrade it, how far back do I have to go?
I have now read all the posts in this guide, but didnt understand how to jailbreak and unlock my iphone. I tried www.iphoneunlock3g.net and it worked. They had easy step-by-step guides on how to unlock my iphone 3g. Now my iphone is unlocked.

Passed-out drunk guy forces women's restroom evacuation
The 2013 Fiesta Bowl will likely be remembered for Oregon Ducks' dazzling display on the field during the Chip Kelly and Co.'s 35-17 victory over Kansas State.
But things weren't so pretty off the field at University of Phoenix Stadium Thursday night.
According to Arizona Newsnet's Twitter account, a fan got a little too carried away.
@ArizonaNewsnet Fiesta Bowl: Section 404 women's restroom evacuated due to intoxicated male passed out on the floor. Police officers might have saved his life. Male was aspirating on vomit, was rolled on his side to open airway.
The good news is the man's life was likely saved. The bad news, some unhappy women were probably inconvenienced in the process.

Three UK begins its 4G LTE roll out, slowly and quietly
The day many UK based iPhone owners is finally upon us, kind of. Three has begun the rollout of its fledgling 4G LTE network by way of a soft launch right now limited to just a few thousand customers in London. It will expand, but as Three confirmed to Android Central, there's a plan and a reason:
The reason for this, Three tell us, is to ensure the smoothest possible rollout for its 4G network, though a side-effect of this staged rollout has been a stream of tweets from disgruntled Three subscribers. The carrier previous committed to a launch in London, Manchester and Birmingham in December, but made no mention of its plans to restrict this to a small number of customers at the get-go.
The launch rollout was promised for London, Birmingham and Manchester during December, so if you're not seeing it right now there's no need to freak out too much. December has plenty of days left for things to progress. Access so far seems to have been random, so we've no indication of what data speeds folks may be seeing.
Three has promised an official release soon to clarify the situation, so we'll know more soon. In the meantime if you're one of the lucky few to have jumped on to the new network, let us know what speeds you're getting in the comments below.

Three UK begins its 4G LTE roll out, slowly and quietly
Three offers good HSPA+ speeds as it is. In a lot of areas you'll see constant 20Mbps+ download speeds which is plenty good enough. It's also why a lot of folks are excited to see what LTE is like from Three
That is great news for those across the pond. Glad to hear.

I was supposed to be part of the "soft rollout". They even sent me a new SIM card and told me to wait for a software update. Then the idea was for me to fill out a daily diary to give them updates on how I found the service. I received the SIM card over a week ago but so far no 4G has come spinning into my phone. Will keep you posted.

The 4G roll out won't require a new sim as Three have already said (http://blog.three.co.uk/2013/08/29/get-ready-for-4g/). A simple sim update is all that is required, similar to the recent O2 update to rectify the LTE - 4G on the iPhones signal strength. Like people have mentioned before, stop stressing it's free !!!
You are right but if you are in the pilot scheme then you do - have no idea why. Spoke to Three today and they said Apple will be pushing an update at some point before the 16th December for those in the pilot scheme. What seems weird is if some people, not in this scheme , get access to 4g first. In the blurb that I got, Three mentioned that the scheme would go live to ordinary customers in January.

Lux Bonteri
The son of Separatist Senator Mina Bonteri, Lux was young, idealistic, and skeptical of the aims of the Republic and the Jedi Knights. His father was a fervent supporter of the Separatists, and was killed by clone troopers on Aargonar. Lux did not know what to make of Ahsoka Tano and her visit to Separatist space. After a failed peace overture begun by Mina extended to the Republic, Lux's mother died under mysterious circumstances attributed to the Republic. Lux filled her position in the Separatist Senate, representing his home planet of Onderon.

- Height: 1.78m ,

Mina Bonteri
A Senator of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Mina Bonteri had been a friend to Padmé Amidala, serving as her mentor on Naboo. Padmé missed her friend dearly, but contact between the Separatist and Republic governments was illegal during the Clone Wars. Nonetheless, Padmé secretly voyaged to Raxus, where she developed a peace accord with Mina. Bonteri proposed the peace overture to the Separatist government, finding support. The corporate barons secretly profiting the war did not agree, however. Mina died under mysterious circumstances, and her peace effort died as well.
Ahsoka Tano
Ahsoka Tano, a Togruta female, was the Padawan learner to Anakin Skywalker and a hero of the Clone Wars. Alongside Anakin, she grew from headstrong student into a mature leader. But her destiny laid along a different path than the Jedi.
Count Dooku
Count Dooku was a menacing Sith Lord and central figure in the Clone Wars. Once a Jedi -- trained by Yoda -- he became disillusioned with the Jedi Order and thirsted for greater power. Dooku voluntarily left the light side behind and became Darth Sidious' dark side disciple, taking the secret name Darth Tyranus and leading the Separatist army.
Death Watch
The warrior clans of Mandalore were believed to have been wiped out ages ago, their tattered remnants exiled to the Concordia moon. But as the Clone Wars swept the galaxy, the treacherous governor Pre Vizsla resurrected the Mandalorians, and with them, their legendary combat armor that was feared across the galaxy. Backed by Count Dooku and the Separatists, Vizsla began building an army to retake Mandalore from the control of pacifists who were trying to bury violent Mandalore's past. As the coup became inopportune, Dooku abandoned the Death Watch. The warriors wandered the galaxy for a time, then helped conquer Mandalore as part of Darth Maul's Shadow Collective. Maul then became Death Watch's leader when he killed Pre Vizsla
Onderon Rebels
During the Clone Wars, the Galactic Republic had little recourse with worlds that willingly sided with the Separatist Alliance -- the rules of engagement enforced by the Senate and the Jedi Order contained the battlefield to contested worlds. But what of planets where the Separatist banner did not garner unanimous support among its populace? When an insurgency on Onderon refused to recognize the legitimacy of its monarch and began a rebellion to oust both the king and the Separatist influence on the planet, Anakin Skywalker saw an opportunity: If the Jedi could train and equip the rebels on Onderon, these freedom-fighters would keep the Separatists occupied during the Clone Wars.

"But now the days grow short … I'm in the autumn of the year. And now I think of my life as vintage wine from fine old kegs … from the brim to the dregs. And it poured sweet and clear … It was a very good year." — "It Was A Very Good Year" by Frank Sinatra
The year began with the debt ceiling debate. Not the recent one, but the one that flared last December. The S&P 500 suffered an 18 percent decline during the most contentious days of the first debt ceiling debacle in 2011.
The sequester ensued in early spring. When Congress voted recently to end the government shutdown and avoid debt default, the cuts that began on March 1 were extended through mid-January of 2014. In a state like Florida, where so many government and private jobs and contracts are connected to the defense budget, the extension of the sequester cuts has ominous economic overtones.
"The Bipartisan Policy Center suggested that if the cuts continue, the economic impact on the defense industry will be double in 2014 what it was in 2013," writes Jennifer Liberto in CNN Money.com. "The full brunt of the cuts hasn't hit, and if we go down the sequester path for too long, we won't be able to reverse the devastating impacts."
So as we greet the New Year, we will suffer another possible government shutdown debate and possibly another extension of the Sequester Act.
With the sequester in full swing in mid-June, Chairman Bernanke floated the idea of scaling back on quantitative easing within the next six months. Domestic markets plummeted for 48 hours, taking global markets with them. Within a few days, Bernanke backpedalled some, and markets returned to "normal".
Around Halloween we faced the harrowing prospect that the U.S. would default on its debts and throw domestic and global markets into a terrible tailspin. Our government was shut down for over two weeks during this recent debt ceiling debate. And investors were backed into a corner, forced to decide if their holdings were safe, or if they needed to take action. At the least, many investors reallocated, emphasizing downside protection against potential market meltdown.
Somehow, markets avoided the historical, major October downturns that have plagued investors. So ultimately, to date, it has been a good year for equities, just not an easy one.

ROCKWALL, Texas - - Police have charged a former North Texas law officer with the fatal shooting of his ex-girlfriend and the wounding of her male friend at a parking lot.
Rockwall police Sgt. Aaron McGrew says Anthony Dewayne Lewis was shot during a chase Saturday night following the attack. McGrew says Lewis was in critical condition Sunday at Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas.
The former Hunt County constable faces murder and attempted murder charges with bond set at $1.5 million.
A Parkland official referred questions about Lewis to police, who didn't immediately release further details. The Department of Public Safety says Lewis was shot by officers during an exchange of gunfire amid the chase.
Authorities identified the slain woman as 33-year-old Jessica Aguilar. Officials say 40-year-old Francisco Delacruz was hospitalized in stable condition.

In this Issue:
On September 13-14, 2011, in Moscow and Boise, the College of Law will present a Bellwood Memorial Lecture Program of unprecedented scope. The anchor of the program, of course, will be the Bellwood Lecture itself, to be delivered on September 13 at 3:30 p.m. in the University Administration Auditorium by Wm. T. (Bill) Robinson, III, President of the American Bar Association. Robinson, who has made support of the state and federal courts one of his presidential priorities, will speak on "The American Judiciary: Underfunded, Misunderstood, and More Important Than Ever." The lecture will be free and open to the public. The next day, September 14, in Boise, Robinson will deliver keynote remarks during a luncheon at the Boise Centre on the Grove. Taking note of the 220th anniversary of the Bill of Rights, his remarks will be titled, "Against Any Winds That Blow … The Special Role of the Judiciary in Protecting Rights and Securing the Rule of Law." Attendance at the luncheon event is by invitation.
The broadened Bellwood program also will feature presentations in Moscow and Boise by constitutional scholars, practitioners, and commentators on topics illuminating the Bill of Rights. Presentations are open to the public. Attorneys who wish to receive continuing legal education credits may register on-line and pay an MCLE fee.
Here is the Moscow program line-up. On-line registration for Moscow is available at UIdaho Marketplace.
These programs will be presented on September 13 in the College of Law courtroom.
Here is the Boise program line-up. On-line registration for Boise is available at UIdaho Marketplace.
These programs will be presented on September 14 at the Boise Centre on the Grove.
Further information about these programs and registration procedures may be obtained from College of Law Associate Dean Helen Albertson (208-885-4977).
National Jurist magazine has just published a ranking of "top law schools for clinical opportunities." The magazine used objective data reported to the American Bar Association in order to gauge student access to clinical learning experiences in full-credit courses. The magazine article, which appears at pages 24-25 of the September, 2011, issue, notes the rising importance of such learning experiences, in which students acquire lawyering skills and deepen their doctrinal expertise through service to real people with real problems in a variety of practice settings, under the supervision of faculty members licensed to practice law. The article identifies the nation's top 20 law schools (out of 200 ABA-approved law schools), based on number of clinic positions available for students in relation to the size of the student enrollment at each school.
The "top 20" list contains the University of Idaho at #13. Other "top 20" schools include Yale (#1), Wisconsin (#5), Minnesota (#12), Stanford (#14), Northwestern (#15), and Harvard (#20). Further information about clinical opportunities at the College of Law may be obtained from Professor Maureen Laflin, Director of Clinical Programs.
University of Idaho law students also acquire practical experience in the College's externship and semester-in-practice programs, in which more than 120 students have participated on a full-time or part-time basis during the current calendar year. Further information about externships may be obtained from program coordinators Katherine (Katie) Ball in Boise and Trapper Stewart in Moscow. Stewart also administers the College's pro bono service program, which encompasses all law students and provides additional real-world preparation, as well as ethical grounding, for the practice of law.

According to Alderson, Goldblum studied in NYC with Sandy, Alderson and Esper and then a year with Alderson in LA. He never finished the full 2 years. So he is not schooled in the full technique.
Nice guy, but not a Meisner teacher.
he does. There a Jeff Goldblum master class level at PW West. A friend was in it. The last time I spoke to him about it, he complained that Jeff was hardly available to teach and thus, it was mostly taught by an underling.
|Kevin Bacon
I love tough teachers - when they're both tough and they're RIGHT. I have already a couple times gotten feedback that made me go huh? and then after rolling it around in my head for a while went oh yeah - he's right! I know what I should have done differently!
|Kevin Bacon
|Johnny Depp
"PW is not what it was 20 plus years ago. Now they have way too many teachers underneath Bob Carnegie and Jeff Goldblum." How did you come to such a conclusion? Have you studied at PW? Did you go through the entire program? Beginner? Intermediate? Advanced? Unless you have personally completed the program, then how could you possibly form such an opinion? Or did a friend of yours attend PW for a few months? OR a few weeks?
20 plus years ago, PW did teach the traditional program as Meisner intended it to be. This comes from someone who was at PW for years and had the fortune of being in the masterclasses when Sandy would visit.
I have worked with more than one person who spent a year or two and then went to Alderson or some other Meisner school that taught the traditional 2 years and they all didn't think PW was on the same level. Great school in general but not the best school if you want to learn Meisner in the most traditional way. Their words, not mine.
And no, I never take the credibility of people who only study at a school for a few weeks or months.
You've been there for a while and seem to be doing well so it's great to have someone currently with PW and loving it to chime in here.
As long as they're one of those schools that fairly advances people and not one that tries to keep people there as long as possible in order for them to finally study with the top dogs, then it's cool.
|Anthony Hopkins
Bob Carnegie was taught by Alderson. I hear he is a good teacher, but doesn't teach every class.
This to me would be confusing, having different teachers.
Ruskin is the same way, a friend told me who studied there. At least Alderson is with you every step of the way and even works with students outside of class, if need be. He would work with us on weekends as we prepared for scene night.
|Al Pacino
Another Fact: Meisner wanted the Playhouse to shut down after he retired / died.

Hmmm... weird. My friend JUST met with him a week or two ago and he told me that Alderson said he might not be having a fall class beside continuing the class he has now. So essentially he would not be taking on any new students. Is this just because he's taking a break or he has his hands full? Or is my friend just full of shit? I would like to study with him but I know he is getting up there so when my friend told me he thought he was retiring I believed him.
Has anyone studied with Mestnik? She was taught by Esper, correct? And is her school multiple levels with different teachers? I don't mind that too much since it's no different than any college drama program or improv school. Just curious how that one works and might check that one out since Alderson's intensive is apparently already in progress.
Yes, Elizabeth Mestnik studied with and was approved to teach the Meisner technique by Esper.
She has more elective offerings than most Meisner schools and different teachers teaching them, but she is mostly the traditional 2 year program which probably won't start up again until Fall.
Alderson is doing a 3 month intensive that started April and ends in June. This is NOT a replacement to the 2 year program that he usually teaches. The intensive is most likely a sampler for those curious about it.
Wow, time flies! I realized that I'm coming close to the end of my 2nd year training. So here are my reflections on Meisner.
I am biased towards the traditional 2 year Meisner training, especially for those who did not have the benefit of going to a prestigious BFA/MFA/Conservatory program, because it's one of the few forms of training that I've seen that gives you the all around tools for being great at film/tv, stage, AND auditions. I wish I had done this before I ever took an audition or on camera class.
Most people think that all you do in Meisner is repetition. WRONG! That's at most a 1-2 month long thing to teach you to how to REALLY listen and to take the attention off of yourself and onto the other person. The repetition is also opinionated so you're also learning subtext (what's underneath what you're saying) while you're doing the repetition. Gradually, you do improvisations/independent activities where the repetition is eventually dropped and become REAL improvised scenes where there is a relationship, who, what, where, etc. These improvisations serve a purpose to prepare you for scenes that will use the tools learned from the improvisations.
You start scenes as soon as the 2nd-3rd month. For the first few scenes, you are told to learn the lines by rote with no choices or deep analysis but to know the lines flat and to work off of the other person to tell you how to say your lines, basically, making it conversational. BUT as you progress through the scenes, you gradually apply elements of script analysis to deepen your scenes. NO, this is not heady stuff like writing essays or a detailed backstory or history, BUT knowing simple AND specific things like your relationship, the moment before (done by Emotional Preparation, a Meisner tool), subtext, given circumstances, as-ifs, personalization and interpretation, time periods, styles, etc.
Besides sharpening my ability to listen and react even more, my biggest take-away from the 1ST Year was Emotional Preparation which is usually taught in the middle of the 1st year. This tool, in brief, is using your imagination or an "as if" to create the moment before and to truthfully have the required emotion at the start of a specific scene.
The Second year is probably the most unique of any kind of training I've personally encountered.
The biggest thing that I got from the Second year was Character Impediments and Dialects. You still continue the improvisations and scenes but you're taught how to NATURALLY and TRUTHFULLY play drunk, stoned, injured, blind, mentally slow, etc. or with an accent. I can't think of any other current training in LA, that gives you a process in doing these kind of things honestly.
You also delve even deeper into script analysis and breaking a scene down during the Second Year. And once again, NOTHING too intellectual. You're taught to make the academic work involved in acting organic and part of your subconscious so it doesn't get in the way of acting with your instincts. The script analysis is important because you start dealing with very difficult monologues like the Spoon River anthologies and scenes where just learning the lines is NOT enough.
At the same time as you learn script analysis, you also stretch your creativity and imagination as one of the unique exercises during the Second Year is "Nursery Rhymes." This exercise is fun in that you take a Nursery Rhyme like "Jack and Jill" and you create multiple interpretations by tweaking around the relationship, the who, what, where, when, why, etc. By doing this, you give the nursery rhyme a deeper story and are able create a completely different scene out of just the words of the Nursery Rhyme.

TRUTHTELLER, if you don't mind me asking, whose 2 year program are you taking?
I read Sandy's book and now I'm almost done with Esper's first one. Going to read his second one next. Esper's book has definitely convinced me to do a 2 year program.
|Nicholas Cage
I think Rose misunderstood me about Meisner and range on that other thread or maybe I wasn't clear enough. It goes to show why I should never try to teach! haha
I didn't mean to imply that learning Meisner will necessarily keep you from having range. That would be silly. I just meant that some FREAKISHLY rangy actors might find it limiting because it doesn't include some of the specific, external based tools the ones I know find useful. All acting techniques are are going to be limited in some way when taken by themselves and most including Meisner can adapt well to "add-ons." For instance, Esper set up the BFA/MFA conservatory at Rutgers and chaired it for years. It is very much Meisner based, but they still bring in a Chekhov teacher second semester of second year besides studying other voice and movement oriented techniques all along.
The thing is, you would be better off studying in New York if you want those tools in any real depth. Somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think anybody in LA teaches Laban movement analysis or Yat Malmgren's practical extension of it and I don't know where you would go to get somebody to take you through Lecoq's progression from neutral mask to red nose, Viewpoints, biomechanics, etc. There are a couple of Chekhov teachers, but that is about it to my knowledge. It doesn't look like the LA Meisner studios even teach Williamson movement which was specifically designed to go along with it.
I don't think you can really draw many conclusions about a technique based on which huge movie stars were trained in it, either. Definitely not when it comes to range. First off, the freakishly rangy actors I know are like that anyway. It is like they have some extra gears to their talent that we mere mortals don't that can be nurtured and made more consistent through different techniques. Besides that, there are a lot more screen actors who are capable of playing a huge range than are allowed to do so and that includes the stars. It is really only a few in a generation who are and you will see that they were all trained in different ways. This business loves to pigeonhole and how they broke out of that I don't know. If you are one of those actors who has that kind of range and feel like you can't be fulfilled as an artist without using it all the time, you might be better off sticking with regional theatre where it is valued more. In Hollywood, it's more of a curio and really kind of confuses the business. I forget which one, but I was looking at the different studio websites and one of the name teachers put it well in a video. "Why should they hire somebody who could be that when they can hire somebody who IS that?" (It was Aaron Speiser.) I know it makes some people cringe, but that about sums it up for 99% of screen actors.
Affective memory versus imagination, blah, blah, blah? So what? Try everything and use what works. There is no "right" way other than in the context of the class you are taking. What Stanislavski really told Stella Alder, what my Russian teacher says, the letters back and forth between Strasberg and Stan's first generation disciples, and where Stan was really at near the end of his life is immaterial. He was still exploring just like everybody else and if he had a mistake it was that he was trying to find a single panacea for great acting that does not exist because every actor is different. I prefer imagination, but I know actors who had the exact same training as me who are just as good or better that use affective memory or a combination all the time.
I see some other things on this thread that are giving me a headache, but I will leave them alone since I have already written way more than I had planned. I'm at home for the first time in a year so I will just take an aspirin and get over it since acting is the last thing I should be thinking about right now. haha
Sadly no on in LA that I know of teaches Laban or Lecoq.
I know the few Chekhov teachers in LA work with masks and clown noses.
Probably the only type of movement class really taught in LA is Alexander technique.
I found this place. I'd be wary of anyone who teaches Michael Checkoff though:
I'd get kicked out of this school for dropping the f-bomb too much.

If you read a little further along that sentence, it is just because of the "thinking hard."

Does Anybody Have More Fun Than Joe Biden? Check These Photos
By Mark Memmott
Originally published on Thu November 29, 2012 5:46 pm
Yes, he talked about the negotiations over taxes and spending cuts. Yes, it was a holiday photo op. But what really struck us about Vice President Joe Biden's this morning to Washington, D.C.'s first Costco store was how, once again, he just seems to have so much fun.
We think a picture gallery is in order.

CRESTVIEW — Catholic Charities of Northwest Florida this week ensured there will be gifts under the tree for children in lower income households.
"It is nice," Gabriella Hendricks, a mother of two, said Wednesday as she accepted a large sack of toys from Jennifer Garraty-Hargett and Courtney Baker. "The kids are going to have nice presents."
Parishioners at Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church in Crestview participated in the toy giveaway program for the first time this year, Baker said.
"Many of the gift requests were on their angel tree, so they're definitely having an impact on our community," Baker, a Crestview resident, said. Angel trees are Christmas trees decorated with paper ornaments, often in the shape of angels, inscribed with gift wishes. Presents benefit kids represented by the charitable organization sponsoring the tree.
This is the first time the charity has brought its Christmas toy distribution to Crestview and neighboring DeFuniak Springs, Baker said.
"Many of our clients don't have cars and can't drive down to Fort Walton (Beach) to pick up their bags," she said, referring to the charity's base office. "It's awkward for them to carry the big bags on a bus."
Area churches, businesses and individual donors gave gifts. An unnamed Destin donor gave 40 $150 gift cards, Baker said.
"That was awesome and unexpected," she said, adding that families with teens receive the gift cards. "A lot of times the teenagers get left out."
"They see the little ones opening their Legos and dolls but they don't have anything," Garraty-Hargett said. "This way, they can shop for whatever they want."
At Wednesday's toy distribution, 15 Crestview area families, representing 35 children, received sacks of toys.
Christy McGovern, a mother of three, expressed gratitude.
"Most definitely, the kids will be excited when they see this under the tree," she said. "Right now, there isn't anything under the tree."
The organization is expanding its services farther into Okaloosa County's north end, Catholic Charities communications director Kelly Humphrey said.
A mobile meal kitchen that would serve food in Laurel Hill is one planned project awaiting funding, she said.

Cal State Northridge men's and women's track & field will head to the Boise State Team Challenge this weekend for their final tuneup before the MPSF Indoor Championships on Feb. 25-26 in Seattle, Wash.
The Matadors, who have one indoor meet in the books in 2011, will send 41 student-athletes to the meet (20 men, 21 women) which opens with the pentathlon and heptathlon on Friday. A majority of the field and track events are scheduled for Saturday. The men's pole vault, distance medley relay and a mixed 3000-meter masters run will also be contested on day one of two-day meet. Saturday's events begin at 9 a.m. with the men's heptathlon 60-meter hurdles, while individual events begin at 9:30 a.m. with the women's weight throw. Individual track events begin at 10:40 a.m. with the mixed mile in the master's division and will end at 3:35 p.m. with the women's 4x400-meter relay.
In addition to the Matadors, seven teams will compete at Boise State. Utah Valley University, Utah State, Hawaii (women only), Northwest Nazarene, Eastern Oregon, College of Idaho and the host Broncos.
Northridge also competed in Boise at the Jackson's Open back in December, 2010 when seniors Sherrina Lofton and Desirae Gonder competed in the pentathlon. Lofton finished second with 3,844 points while Gonder did not finish the competition.
Two weeks ago at the UW Invitational in Seattle, several Matadors posted performances that ranked them in the Northridge Indoor top-10. On the women's side, Lofton ran a career-best 55.60 in the 400 meters to tie for fifth place on the all-time indoor list. She also cracked the top-10 in the high jump with a clearance of 5-5 which is fifth-best in CSUN indoor history.
On the men's side, Michael Woodham lowered his career-best time in the 60 meter hurdles to 8.21 which ties for eighth on the all-time men's list. Juan Olea and Hunter Hays both etched their names in the top-10 in the 5,000 meters as Olea moved into fifth place at 15:32.45 while Hays ranks sixth at 15:39.14.

ROSEMONT, Ill.---The Chicago Wolves rallied from a two-goal deficit in the third period to tie the score, it the Hamilton Bulldogs scored the game's final marker to send them to a 3-2 win Saturday night before 14,089 fans at the Allstate Arena.
Forwards Tim Miller and Mike Duco scored for Chicago, which saw its three-game winning streak snapped but remained in first place in the Midwest Division standings.
"Tonight is one of those learning lessons on how to win hockey games," said Wolves head coach Craig MacTavish. "Hamilton played hard and so did we, but we didn't play smart enough to win this game. We need to learn to keep our emotions in check and not take ourselves out of what we want to do."
Hamilton (29-30-2-5) opened scoring with seven seconds remaining in the first period. Center Andreas Engqvist won a faceoff for the Bulldogs back to defenseman T.J. Fast, who snapped a low shot that deflected off a Wolves forward's skate and past Chicago goaltender Eddie Lack.
The Bulldogs doubled their lead at 2:34 of the third period. Forward Jesse Todd dumped the puck into the Wolves zone and Lack came out to poke-check the puck, but center Robert Slaney beat him to it and flipped a backhand into the empty net.
Chicago (36-25-2-3) cut its deficit to 2-1 1:16 later. Defenseman Yann Sauve's shot from the near circle hit off a Bulldogs defenseman's stick and Miller scooped up the loose puck, wrapped around the net, and tucked the puck past Hamilton goaltender Robert Mayer.
The Wolves knotted the score 2-2 when right wing Mark Mancari fired a shot from the side of the net that Mayer stopped, but coughed up a rebound to the top of the crease that Duco was able to slam home at 6:57 of the final frame.
Mayer (9-15-1) stopped 16 of 18 shots in 40 minutes of relief duty after coming on for an injured Nathan Lawson at the start of the second period. Lawson thwarted all 15 shots he faced in the first frame.
Hamilton produced the game-winner while on the power play at 9:28. Right wing Brian Willsie collected a failed Wolves clearing attempt, walked into the high slot, and ripped a slapshot past Lack.
Lack (18-18-3) kicked out 27 of 30 shots.
The Wolves host the Houston Aeros at 3 p.m. Sunday at the Allstate Arena before venturing on a seven-game road trip beginning Thursday, March 29.

In order to provide a more "rounded" voice on the GoGrid blog, we are going to start having some new authors. To kick off this initiative, I wanted to introduce Paul Lappas, GoGrid's VP of Engineering and Co-Founder. Paul manages GoGrid's engineering efforts, technical operations, IT and the technology vision for GoGrid.
Recently, he and some other team members attending a MeetUp in San Francisco at the Twitter headquarters to discuss and present JClouds and Pallet and how those tools are being used at GoGrid. Here is Paul's synopsis of Jclouds and the presentation:
"GoGrid is doing some really cool stuff using an automated provisioning technology called "Pallet". Pallet is similar to existing automating configuration technologies like Puppet and Chef but with a key difference that it was built specifically to solve the problem of quickly spinning up and configuring groups of servers in the cloud. It support "Jclouds" out of the box and is implemented as a set of libraries for "Clojure" which is a LISP-based programming language that is quickly building steam. Jclouds is an open source framework developed by Adrian Cole that helps you get started in the cloud and reuse your java development skills, with an API that allows you the freedom to use portable abstractions or cloud-specific features.
GoGrid is working with the author of Pallet (Hugo Duncan) and a key contributor Toni Batchelli to enable the fast deployment of fully functional GoGrid environments for use by development teams for test & dev. It's a tough problem for most companies, but especially challenging for us considering how complex (and capital intensive) it is to stage an end-to-end GoGrid environment due to the sheer breadth of technologies that span almost all 7 layers of the OSI stack. With Pallet, we are able to treat our "infrastructure as code" and manage the configuration of systems, networks and applications just like we do our source code so that they can be quickly applied to spin-up new environments. But perhaps the coolest aspect is that we are using GoGrid internally to virtualize the individual components! It's kind of like Inception where there is a grid-within-a-grid. Our teams are still getting their heads around logging into a GoGrid account and seeing virtual representation of physical GoGrid components represented as VM icons in the GUI! Very cool stuff.
The following presentation provides more details of the implementation and was presented at the recent Jclouds meetup at Twitter's headquarter in San Francisco. Check out future jclouds meetups here:
Below is the presentation that was presented at the Jclouds meetup: (more…) «Agile Development at GoGrid with Pallet and Jclouds (Presentation)»
