CUMBERLAND --- An undefeated team, one of the state's best pitchers, and some chilly weather were unable to cool off red-hot Cumberland High on Tuesday afternoon.
The Clippers used a four-run rally in the bottom of the second inning and a strong outing from ace pitcher Bethany Paul to knock Chariho High from the unbeaten ranks and grab a 7-2 triumph in their Division I crossover showdown at Tucker Field.
The Chargers came into the game with a 9-0 mark that saw them outscore their opponents by a 71-22 margin, but bused out of Cumberland with a one-sided loss.
PAWTUCKET — On a cold and damp night, the Pawtucket Red Sox found themselves undone by a pair of defensive shortcomings in a 5-1 loss to Gwinnett.
One was not ruled an error, as centerfielder Josh Reddick dove but could not come up with a sinking line drive off the bat of Gwinnett's Wilkin Ramirez, who scooted into third base with a triple. The play loomed even larger as the next Braves hitter, Shawn Bowman, sent a chopper to shortstop that Jose Iglesias would have cleanly fielded for the third out in the seventh inning.
Is it too early to start printing Governors' Cup tickets? Yes, it probably is, but winning sure does change a person's outlook, doesn't it?
Forget for a moment that it's the second week of May and there's plenty of baseball on the docket between now and Labor Day. Your PawSox kicked off an eight-game homestand Monday night sitting just one-half game behind Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the top team in the I.L. North. It's also the same Scranton/WB outfit that Pawtucket won three of four games against over Mother's Day weekend.
PAWTUCKET — Citing a strategic decision rooted more in viewer feedback rather than budgetary constraints, Cox Communications has opted to dramatically scale back its television coverage of the Pawtucket Red Sox.
MOOSIC, Pa. – What is the PawSox' response to all the injuries and call-ups currently sweeping through the clubhouse? In the immortal words of Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis, "just win baby."
On a day that saw the promotion of shortstop phenom Jose Iglesias to Boston, the PawSox maintained their winning edge, besting Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, 5-4, at PNC Field. The victory allows second-place Pawtucket (17-13) to move within a half-game of Scranton, the top team in the I.L. North. The PawSox wound up taking the four-game series, 3-1.
WOONSOCKET – No regrets. No bitterness. No remorse.
Pride and a sense of accomplishment can remain intact even if the ultimate goal is never reached. No matter if he didn't reach the sport's ultimate holy grail after toiling for nine years in the minor leagues. Karl Allaire does not have a sense that something is missing, that somehow his career should have "incomplete" rubberstamped on it because he never reached the majors. The Woonsocket native can look back in earnest and take comfort that he put his best foot forward, that he gave it his best shot.
LINCOLN --- It was six years ago today when Mike Monteleone, a 14-year-old freshman on the Lincoln High junior varsity baseball team, tragically died of cardiac arrest during his team's afternoon practice.
Monteleone's untimely passing not only affected the community and the high school, it also hit home at Lincoln Middle School, where Monteleone's sister, Jenna, was a sixth-grade student.
WOOD RIVER JUNCTION – Back in February Central Falls coach Brian Palazzo remarked that junior Steven Vazquez, "has a motor that doesn't stop." Palazzo also added that he expected Vazquez to flourish during the outdoor season, given that Vazquez would not be divvying up his time between basketball and high jumping, which is the case during the winter months.
PAWTUCKET – Tolman High earned one of its biggest victories of the season Friday afternoon, knocking of Division II-Central leader Central with a 5-1 decision at McCoy Stadium.
Trailing by a score of 1-0, Justin Otis keyed a two-run fifth inning with an RBI double. The Tigers tacked on three more runs in the sixth, highlighted by a run-scoring single from Zach Vivieros. Andrew Larson was effective on the mound, hurling a five-hitter with five strikeouts.
"It was a very good win," said Tolman coach Theo Murray.
PAWTUCKET — When Tolman High's golf team gathered at Pawtucket Country Club on Thursday afternoon for a dual-meet with North Providence, the Tigers represented a varsity sports program whose success is not based on its win-loss record.
"In the case of golf, our first goal is to just expose the kids to the game," Tolman athletic director John Scanlon admitted. "A large number of kids (at Tolman) have not played golf. We've always felt golf is a lifetime activity."
The sport is among the least expensive to fund in the school's athletic budget, Scanlon admitted.
WOONSOCKET --- Winning close games hasn't been a strong point for Mount St. Charles Academy this year, but on Thursday afternoon, the Mounties found a way to take a tight battle with St. Raphael Academy.
The Mounties broke a 2-2 tie with three runs in the bottom of the sixth inning and received a strong outing from senior pitcher Collins Uttermann to down the Saints, 5-2, in their Division I-North meeting.
The victory was a much-needed one for the host Mounties, who raised their record to 5-7 and came into the contest with losses in four of their last six games.
LINCOLN --– Lacrosse is a game where goals are often scored in large numbers and multiple tallies by any one individual is not uncommon.
But for Lincoln High junior Jillian DeSimone this spring, it just may be bordering on the ridiculous.
DeSimone has averaged more than eight goals per outing in nine league games for the Lions in Division II. On Wednesday, it was status quo for the high-scoring attack as she netted 10 scores – all coming in the first half – to lift the unbeaten Lions to a rather routine 22-13 decision over North Providence at Ferguson Field.
PAWTUCKET – The in-game injuries keep piling up for the Pawtucket Red Sox. Promising player Yamaico Navarro became the latest casualty Tuesday afternoon, joining an ever-expanding list of PawSox bitten by the injury bug.
Navarro immediately grabbed his left side after a bunt single in the first inning, giving off the vibe that something wasn't quite right. Those suspicions were confirmed when Nate Spears replaced Navarro in right field in the top of the second.
PAWTUCKET – The Red Sox are exercising supreme caution with Felix Doubront. After missing most of spring training with elbow tightness in his pitching elbow and beginning the season pitching exclusively out of Boston's bullpen, the promising left-hander finds himself in the midst of building up his pitch count.
The process continued Tuesday as Doubront threw 64 pitches, which represents a 14-pitch improvement over his previous start. The alarming sign is that Doubront was only able to provide 3 1/3 innings in Pawtucket's 7-2 matinee loss to Toledo.
LINCOLN — Before a brutal, four-game stretch of crossover games, Lincoln High was sitting nicely atop the Division I-North standings with an unbeaten 8-0 mark.
It's a little different now.
Facing some of the upper-echelon of squads from I-South and I-Central over the last week, the Lions suffered their third setback in the last four games Tuesday afternoon with a 5-1 loss to Bishop Hendricken at Chet Nichols Field. The Hawks belted out 11 hits and had a quality start from lefty Tim Pannone to improve to 9-2 for the spring.
PAWTUCKET – The PawSox continue to expose Yamaico Navarro to new positions. Monday night marked his second consecutive start in right field, becoming the fifth different position he's seen time at this season. In the ninth inning Navarro moved over to center, meaning the only positions he's yet to play are first base, catcher and pitcher.
PAWTUCKET – To trace the path of how Victor Martinez became a Detroit Tiger, one can look back at last July's trading deadline. The acquisition of Jarrod Saltalamacchia meant the Red Sox had their coveted catcher of the future, and with Martinez heading into free agency, the handwriting was on the wall that the 32-year-old stood a longshot to be back with Boston in 2011.
CENTRAL FALLS --- Softball games between second-place and fourth-place teams that are separated by a game in the standings are usually close, competitive battles.
Monday afternoon's Division III game between Central Falls and Shea was an exception.
The Warriors pounded out 14 hits and took advantage of an usually-high 11 errors by the Raiders on their way to a surprising 15-0 victory at Macomber Stadium that was stopped after 4½ innings by the mercy rule.
PAWTUCKET – Rehabbing an injury can prove very tricky for many athletes to navigate successfully. That's why the athletic trainer is an important source, both in terms of offering moral support and aiding the athlete's quest to return to action as soon as the body permits.
In terms of both critical areas, Ryan Kalish knows he's in good hands with Jon Jochim, the trainer for the Pawtucket Red Sox. On Sunday morning, Kalish emerged from the trainer's room with his left shoulder heavily bandaged, tangible proof that another therapy session under Jochim's care had transpired.
PAWTUCKET – A lack of control continues to haunt Andrew Miller.
Throwing strikes was a major flaw for the lanky left-hander Sunday afternoon as Pawtucket dropped a 4-3 decision to Toledo before 3,512 at McCoy Stadium. Miller lasted just three-plus innings and was yanked by PawSox manager Arnie Beyeler after loaded the bases on two walks and a single in the fourth. The former sixth overall pick of the 2006 draft was the definition of off-target, throwing just 41 of his 84 pitches for strikes.

Indianapolis is among the top performing Midwest cities on a number of measures. For example, it has the fastest population growth of any metro area over one million people and it is also among the best performers in terms of employment. It can be tempting to view this as a product of good circumstances or good luck – state capital, center of state, only large city in state, Eli Lilly, etc. And all of those are important to the city's success to be sure. But I think it misses a lot of the flat out good decisions that good execution that have contributed, particularly in the economic development space.
I've highlighted some of these before, but I thought I'd start out another mini-series with more good examples.
First, I recently noted how many cities mistake real estate development for economic development. Indy hasn't been immune to the lure of the large publicly subsidized real estate project. But when Indy has done it, it has generally been in the service of some greater strategy that paid off, such as amateur sports and events, not just a random series of "next big thing" projects.
This strategy created the Wholesale District, probably the best such revitalized multi-use district of any Midwest peer city and one of the top in the country. The city has a mall, an arena, stadium, convention center, and 4-5,000 hotel rooms all in a small area, combined with tons of restaurants and bars, along with some offices, residential space, and other destinations like the Mexican Consulate. Everything feeds on each other synergistically. This environment has been very attractive to events, creating a business that, as Gov. Daniels recently noted, is a "cash cow" for the state.
Just as one specific example, the new Lucas Oil Stadium. The Indy Star ran a recent article on all the events that it booked (as well as some challenges). What I found amazing about this is that notorious stadium critic Prof. Mark Rosentraub at the University of Michigan actually had some decent words to say about it. "In this economy, to be honest, I think Lucas is doing an amazing job." And, "This was an investment in human capital to use the Downtown as a linchpin to attract highly skilled workers for Eli Lilly, banks, insurance companies, the kinds of workers we will need in the 21st century. When the economy is in good shape, these facilities will work." This is from the guy who literally wrote the book on why stadiums are a bad investment.
Moving on, I wanted to go out on a limb and highlight something I think is a good strategy even though it is just getting started and hasn't paid dividends yet. That is the new Energy Systems Network, the new economic development initiative focused around green tech.
I've long criticized the "me too" economic development strategies every single city and state seem to have in the hot sectors du jour: life sciences, high tech, green industry, and advanced manufacturing. It's not so much that these are bad sectors to go after, but a completely generic, undifferentiated and unfocused strategy for a location with no competitive advantage just isn't going to cut it. Alas, that's what most of these are.
But when you look at this Energy Systems Network, a few things stand out. Once, it is largely a private sector led iniative. It's another project of the Central Indiana Corporate Partnership. Now that, in itself, is not unusual as most cities have such a corporate vehicle that is the main backer of economic development. But here it looks like most of the investment is going to be coming from private companies pursuing actual products, not a government boondoggle fund.
The ESN is focused, looking at a few specific subsectors: wind and solar power, hybrid/plug-in vehicles, second generation biofuels, distributed power generation, and systems integration. Now, lots of people are chasing wind and solar, but for that one, so what? Power generation using those technologies is not a winner take all type industry like so many others that feature major clustering effects. And Indiana is doing well. Where nominally progressive states like Wisconsin are slow out of the gate with wind power, Indiana something like 14th in the country in it, and was number one in increasing its wind power capacity last year, with many more projects in the pipe.
As for vehicles, local companies have joined forces to collaborate on two initiatives. The Hoosier Heavy Hybrid group is looking at building more efficient trucks and something called Project Plug In is looking at a large scale pilot for plug-in vehicles and smart grid technology in Central Indiana. Could both of these fail? Of course. Entrepreneurial ventures frequently do. But that's ok. And at least these guys are looking at specific things they want to do, not just a bunch of pie in the sky dreams. And there is a base of expertise to work from.
I do think corn based ethanol is bad energy solution, but given that Indiana has a large agricultural base, excluding that probably would have been politically impossible.
On the whole however, you see something here that is reasonably focused and looks at where Indiana can apply its expertise not to take over the world, but to get its fair share of the pie. And they are trying to do it with actual products. Compared to the marketing based initiatives you often seen in the econdev world, the contrast is clear.

To fix code flaws, you can attempt to fix the stack for a start. You are correct that fixing the multitude of programmes and programmers is unlikely and that new ones are "born" every day.
We should all know that code "usually" resides in a R/O text area at the start of the program memory. In an ideal world our programs will not execute any instructions off of the data stack.
In the case of hardware that supports it, software can be integrated to stop many of these attacks. On AMD64 and Pentium-4 (and newer) CPU's there is what is called an NX bit. The Linux kernel has had support for the NX bit functionality since 2.6.8. In solaris and HP-UX there are kernel switches for this behaviour on RISC chips (eg noexec_user_stack=1 in /etc/system on Solaris).
OpenBSD has W^X (3.4 up) and the grsecurity (grsecurity.org) PaX patches include stack-protection from the Admantix Linux Project. Redhat has "Exec Shield" for this.
With the Risc systems (solaris, HPUX etc), stack protection prevents executing code off stack pages. This still does not stop heap attacks - but these are another issue.
W^X and PaX (with NX) marks all writable-pages as non-executable - even the heap area and other data areas - not just the stack. The issues come as many high level languages (ie JAVA, JSP etc) execute runtime code out of the heap. Thus these can break Java.
So this is a functionality issue for a start. Many systems (eg Internet DNS) do not need the extended functionality provided by Java and other high level languages. In this case - there is a good case to disable code from running out of the data areas, stack and heap. On the other hand, Users want to browse the web etc and as such they want this added feature (ie no heap protection).
Alternatively there is another option.
There are complier-based solutions. Adding a "Canary" between the frame pointer and return address in order to create code that is resistant to buffer overflows. In this, any buffer overflow exploit that overflows the data area and writes downward to the return address pointer will also overwrite the canary value (I will ignore format string attacks for this as this make it a little too complex).
In the normal course of program execution, the program will check the canary value. If this has been altered (ie buffer overflow exploit or error) the program aborts rather than returning the memory address given by the return address pointer. This adds an overhead of about 10% to the system, but makes many classical buffer overflows unable to be executed. GCC has this option built in (-fstack-protector & -fstack-protector-all) though they are rarely used. I believe that Novell - from OpenSUSE 10.3 is building this in though I have not tried to break this myself.
So to end - there are a number of options. Some work very well, but all have a cost. This may be an increase performance hit and it may be no Java, but it is possible. So for the original question, PAX helps, but it breaks Java and other pretty user toys.

The sequence information from the mouse consortium has been immediately and freely released to the world, without restrictions on its use or redistribution. The information is scanned daily by scientists in academia and industry, as well as by commercial database companies, providing key information services to biotechnologists.
The work reported in this paper will serve as a basis for research and discovery in the coming decades. Such research will have profound long-term consequences for medicine. It will help elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms of disease. This in turn will allow researchers to design better drugs and therapies for many illnesses.
"The mouse genome is a great resource for basic and applied medical research, meaning that much of what was done in a lab can now be done through the web. Researchers can access this information through www.ensembl.org, where all the information is provided with no restriction," says Ewan Birney, Ph.D., Ensembl Coordinator at the European Bioinformatics Institute.
Technology, Assembly and Analysis
The mouse sequence reported in today's journal is a high-quality draft sequence. The consortium plans to produce a "finished" version with the remaining gaps filled in and errors resolved. This phase will proceed using clone-based, or hierarchical, sequencing using the publicly available mouse genome clone map. The quality of the working draft sequence far exceeds the consortium's original expectations for this stage and was completed much sooner than initially expected, reflecting the tremendous efficiencies gained in sequencing and computational technologies in the past few years. Methods for efficient sequencing of large genomes continue to advance dramatically, and it is now becoming possible to sequence genomes much more rapidly.
The mouse sequencing strategy combines the features of the clone-based-hierarchical-shotgun and whole-genome-shotgun strategies. In the hierarchical-shotgun approach, individual large DNA fragments of known position are subjected to shotgun sequencing (shredded into small fragments that are sequenced and then reassembled in the basis of sequence overlaps). In the whole-genome-shotgun approach, the entire genome is shredded into small fragments that are sequenced and put back together on the basis of sequence overlaps. The scientists used data from more than 33 million individual sequencing experiments. Using two different computer systems, called genome assemblers, the team reconstructed the 33 million individual fragments into a draft sequence. These whole-genome assemblers, called ARACHNE and PHUSION were developed at the Whitehead Institute and at the Sanger Institute, respectively.
These long stretches of sequence, called contigs, were then linked into larger fragments called supercontigs of a typical length of 16.9 million base pairs. These supercontigs were then anchored to the mouse genetic and BAC clone maps. Finally, adjacent supercontigs were joined into even larger ultracontigs on the basis of other linking information. In the end, nearly the entire chromosomal sequence is contained in a mere 88 ultracontigs with a typical size of 50 megabases each.
Once assembled, the Ensembl database team, based at the EBI and Sanger Institute and funded primarily by the Wellcome Trust, coordinated the annotation of the assembled genome with interesting features, including genes. Ensembl automatically estimates where the genes are, primarily by finding similarities with known genes both in mouse and in other organisms, such as human.
The work was then taken up by the mouse genome analysis group, comprised of genome analysis experts from 27 institutions in six countries. This "virtual genome analysis center" convened over the internet and by regular conference calls to interpret and analyze the mouse-human comparison.
"It's been very exciting to see how much we can learn from comparing the mouse genome to the human genome and yet we see how much more there is to study," says Kerstin Lindblad-toh, Ph.D., lead author of the Nature paper and Senior Program Manager Mouse Genome at Whitehead Institute.
What's Next?
The consortium's ultimate goal is to produce a completely "finished" mouse sequence with no gaps and 99.99 percent accuracy. Researchers expect this will take two or three years. Although the near-finished version is adequate for most biomedical research, the Human Genome Project (HGP) has made a commitment to filling all gaps and resolving all ambiguities, as it did with the human sequence. The human sequence is expected to be finished by April 2003.
The HGP also plans to sequence the genomes of many other species, because comparing genomes across species will provide researchers additional tools for understanding the essential elements that evolution has designated as important to survival. This information will in turn translate into practical knowledge toward developing better therapies in the future.
Next in line for sequencing are the chimpanzee, the chicken, the cow, the dog, several species of fungi, a sea urchin, the honey bee and two simple organisms commonly used in laboratory studies (Oxytricha trifallax and Tetrahymena thermophila). Each organism will shed unique insights into human health and disease.
Comparative genomics will also offer scientists insights into important regions in the sequence that perform regulatory functions, such as switching on or off a gene or controlling its expression.
Finally, the sequence will serve as a foundation for a broad range of functional genomic tools to help biologists to probe the function of the genes in a more systematic manner. Development of such genomic tools will be one of the major thrusts for biologists in the next decade, according to the scientists.

PREVIEW: Aberavon
Aberavon travel to the Mem
Aberavon visit the Memorial Stadium for an Anglo-Welsh clash in the B&I Cup on Sunday (3pm KO).
The Wizards face Bristol in the Pool Five clash - the penultimate game in the group stages of the competition.
Bristol beat Aberavon 78-0 in the rearranged B&I Cup clash in December, as Mitch Eadie crossed for his first professional hat-trick against a much-changed Welsh outfit at the Talbot Athletic Ground.
Aberavon remained third in Pool Five with one victory to their name - a 31-17 victory over Gala at Netherdale.
The Wizards have conceded a total of 208 points - the most in the group, having gone down 72-0 at the hands of Leeds Carnegie in the last Cup outing.
Following Sunday's game, Aberavon round off their B&I Cup fixtures versus Gala on Saturday, 18 January (2pm KO).

Whatever happened to that open competition at backup point guard?
Could it be time for Thunder coach Scott Brooks to circle back to it?
Whatever happened to that open competition at backup point guard?
Could it be time for Thunder coach Scott Brooks to circle back to it?
The play of Eric Maynor has raised the question of whether second-year guard Reggie Jackson deserves a shot to show how he might fare running the second unit.
Maynor, once a steady hand and stabilizing presence off the bench, has not been himself since returning from a torn ACL. It's an injury that understandably leads to rust but one Maynor, Brooks and others insist is fully healed. Yet through 14 games Maynor has made only a marginal impact. He's averaging 4.1 points and 1.9 assists while shooting just 31.7 percent from the field. All are career-lows.
Brooks, however, recently told The Oklahoman that he isn't contemplating a change.
"I haven't thought about it," Brooks said of supplanting Maynor with Jackson. "He's always in the mix, but at the moment, no. But he definitely has to be ready."
Throughout the preseason Brooks maintained that Jackson was in an open battle with Maynor for the backup spot. Most considered it coach speak, a motivational ploy to get the most out of both players. Thus it was no surprise when Brooks chose Maynor over Jackson, even though Jackson showed improvement, growing confidence and a mix of athleticism and versatility that possibly could result in a better all-around impact.
In the past eight games, though, Maynor has averaged just 2.1 points on 5-for-30 shooting (16.7 percent). Brooks admits Maynor could be playing better, but the coach said he doesn't judge his backup point guards by their statistical production.
"If you're looking for stats, it's an up-and-down position," Brooks said. "If you're looking for how that group is playing and how the team is playing, then you can get a better feel for how he's doing at a consistent level."
So far, Maynor hasn't regularly produced in either area.
The second unit is getting worse, not better. Maynor's ineffectiveness has been part of the reason why the Thunder's bench has been outscored by an average margin of 3.1 points. Consequently, Brooks was forced to alter his substitution pattern five games ago and subsidize his second string with Kevin Durant.

The Catacoffin is a $35,000 coffin that features a three-speaker sound system that is controlled by a touchscreen remote that is installed in your gravestone. I am guessing that the idea is that you create a playlist and visitors to your grave get to play you songs from it when they come to pay their respects.
I find this silly on so many levels that I don't know where to begin. Let us, for the sake of brevity, entertain the foolish notion that a decomposing corpse is able to "listen" to the aforementioned music – would that not mean that they are also conscious of the fact that they are stuck in a coffin under six or more feet of earth? As awful as that sounds, can you imagine how much worse it would be to be stuck down there listening to the same music over and over again?
For some reason the immortal words of Walter Sobchak come to mind.
Look, just because we're bereaved doesn't make us saps!

Romantic Suspense
Rating: 4 Cups
When she was a young child, Audrey Sherrod lost her brother to a serial killer. Now as a grief counselor, she uses her loss as a way to help those in need.
Special Agent J.D. Cass has always been a firm believer in having casual affairs and not letting anyone close. When he finds out he has a teenage daughter, he is not sure how to react and finds he has made a mess of things.
When Audrey first meets J.D. she does not think much of him, and as she gets to know him better, her opinion of him does not change much. As a new case opens for J.D. he finds a connection between this new crime and an old case that involves Audrey. She is not sure how to handle her feelings for J.D. and fights her feelings of passion and love that are continuously growing for the sexy agent. Can J.D. crack the case before time runs out for the next victim?
Ms. Barton has a way of writing that has the reader pondering who did what. Don't Cry is a tale with so many different suspects that you are not sure who the killer is. I like that the characters have flaws that are relatable to the reader. The way J.D. and his daughter go back and forth and struggle to find their niche in each others' lives made this novel more believable. The conclusion of this book will leave you with the impression of utter amazement as the puzzle pieces finally are put in their places and you learn who the Rocking Chair Killer is and what happened to Audrey's brother twenty five years ago.

Middle Bass Island dedicates $11.4M marina expansion
MIDDLE BASS ISLAND, Ohio - Officials on Friday dedicated the $11.4 million expansion of Middle Bass Island State Park marina, a project that got under way in January, 2001.
Among those recognized was Mr. Logan's predecessor, former ODNR director, Sam Speck, who oversaw much of the work while at the agency's helm from 1998 to 2006.
Mr. Speck, a Republican, is a former Ohio Statehouse member and former Muskingum College president who was appointed by former President George W. Bush to the International Joint Commission's governing board. The commission is a State Department-level agency that has negotiated boundary water issues affecting the United States and Canada since 1909.
The Middle Bass project included the construction of 50 additional boat docks, some temporary and some permanent. A 20-site primitive campground was built on the island in 2006, the state DNR said.
In 2008, a large-scale marina entrance and basin-improvement project was completed. That included reshaping the marina basin, building a new entrance channel and revetments (usually masonry that supports embankments), and installing floating dock anchorage piling. The floating docks were completed last year, bringing the total number of docks to 264. A 100,000-gallon elevated water storage tank has been installed, as have water and sewer lines, the state agency said.
This summer, staff housing - along with a permanent shower and restroom building - is to be built. Improvements are expected for the marina office and harbormaster building. Much of the work is being guided by a long-range master plan that was developed for the marina, the agency said.
State Rep. Dennis Murray (D., Sandusky) was among the dignitaries at yesterday's event, as was Ohio State Parks acting chief John Hunter and Ohio DNR Division of Watercraft chief Pam Dillon. Jim Hodgson, chief of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's wildlife and sports fish restoration program, also was there, the Ohio DNR said.
In addition to launching the Middle Bass marina project in 2001, the state paid $6.75 million for 124 acres on the island that year. The purchase included the former Lonz Winery.
The purchase was among more than $35 million of Lake Erie land acquisitions made by the former Taft administration. In 2004, the state paid $17.4 million to buy 589 of the 676 acres on North Bass Island, or 87 percent of the island.
Those acquisitions, along with the marina project, have been conceptually linked by the state into a single entity called Lake Erie Islands State Park, which includes portions of North, Middle, South Bass, Kelleys, and Catawba islands.

"This marina represents yet another doorway Ohioans now have to their natural world," Ohio Department of Natural Resources Director Sean Logan said. "It is really an investment in conservation and will serve to maintain Ohio's lasting quality of life."

From one of Friuli's best-known estates, this comes mainly from the Jesera vineyard, Slovenian for the "little lake" found nearby. Especially this year, more concentration than you often find in Pinot Grigio with plenty of orchard fruits and juicy acidity. Just a hint of the ocean in the aromas and on the long and lovely finish, making this a killer match for fish and seafood.

Camp out amongst library's camping collection—September 6, 2013
"My idea of camping is the Waldorf Astoria and Edward's Steakhouse." It's not unusual to hear something like that when mentioning an upcoming campout. Some people seem mortified at the thought of joining insects, crawly things and argh! dirt.
My parents introduced us to camping as we were growing up. We'd load our small pick up camper and leave civilization for 2 or 3 days. My parents actually expected us to survive without a television or even a phone. Left with only our imaginations, we would become pioneers looking for game, lumberjacks gathering wood or any number of other characters. When mealtime came, we were ravenous. Our bodies slipped into slumber before we realized how tired we were. The sunrise would alert our olfactory senses to the aroma of breakfast followed by another day of scampering through nature. A whiny "But Mom, there's nothing to do" was a phrase we never uttered during our adventures.
My own children grew up with the same experiences and, as adults, have purchased their own homes on wheels and the equipment necessary for enjoying regular mini vacations. We all look forward to sitting around a campfire, taking spontaneous naps, meeting other campers and just letting the concerns of our usual hectic lives escape.
Camping isn't rocket science, but still it's helpful to read the ideas of authors who offer suggestions for safe and successful "get-a-ways". "Basic Essentials Camping" includes information about campsites, appropriate clothing and building fires. This book even includes a chapter about camping in an area inhabited by bears.
"The Parent's Guide To Camping With Children" points out the educational aspects of living outdoors. A few activities are casting animal tracks and studying cloud formations. How about "Bug Bingo" or a nature scavenger hunt? Looking for constellations and trying to identify other celestial bodies might help excited young campers drift off to sleep.
The topic of bicycle camping fills a chapter in "Camping In Comfort". This book describes unusual tent styles, cots and sleeping bags. There is even a small espresso machine available, perfect for a minimalist camper. What really caught my interest was the camping closet, a compact catchall for clothing, bedding and items like tissue and small gear which looks like the perfect organizational item.
My favorite book in the camping collection is called "Glamping With Mary Jane". It is filled with colorful pictures and addresses topics like "Décor Ideas", "Casual Cocktail Parties", "Trailer Shopping and Restoration" and many more. Vintage camping trailers become colorful works of art in these pages. There are fish earrings to make, an outdoor chandelier and and all kinds of other camping items which are dressed up to suit the individual camper.
If you haven't had the chance to experience camping, you've been missing too much. Try it, you'll like it.

Opening Day of Trout season
Type: Freshwater
Region: Central
Location: Rocks State Park - Deer Creek
My son Jason and I went out for our annual opening day trip at Deer Creek (Rocks State Park). Needless to say it was the coldest opener that I recall in a good while! The fishing was very slow which was odd because we normally have a limit by 9. My son did manage to hook up with a rainbow trout which was the oddest one Ive ever seen, it was a short but fat trout! We left a short time later so we could warm back up. We came back out later on Saturday and I managed to catch another nice one. We used Berkley Powerboats (white). We will be back out fishing this week!

Perfect Day to Fish for Perch
On December 27, 2014, the weather was perfect to take the kids fishing to see if the perch were biting. The water temp was in the low 40's and we fished 2" Berkley Power Grubs on a 1/8oz heads. We targeted shallow water and the fish were there. We fished for about 2 hours and caught about 2 dozen fish. My children Jason, Avery and Kaitlyn were all smiles when the fish continued to bite their baits! This was a great way to finish out fishing for 2014!

Took my Son Fishing
Type: Freshwater
Region: Northern
Location: Susquehanna River
06-28-2011: My son Jason and I took a trip out on the river for some Bass fishing. The morning was overcast with thick fog on the river. My lure of choice is a crankbait most of the time for the river. Our morning consisted of catching 5 bass (several over 15") 1 nice catfish about 30" (lost @ boatside) 1 yellow perch 1 Rock bass . All of the fish were very active this morning just before the sky opened and dumped a bunch of rain on us for about 30 minutes. Good thing we carry our Gore Tex suits on the boat. We were only fishing for about 4 hours. Here are some of the pictures of our 2 largest bass. All the fish were released for another day of fishing.

Genital sores - male
A male genital sore is any sore or lesion that appears on the penis, scrotum, or male urethra.
Alternative Names
Sores - male genitals; Ulcers - male genitals
A common cause of male genital sores are infections that are spread through sexual contact, such as:
- Genital herpes (small, painful blisters filled with clear or straw-colored fluid)
- Genital warts (flesh-colored spots that are raised or flat, and may look like the top of a cauliflower)
- Chancroid (a small bump in the genitals, which becomes an ulcer within a day of its appearance)
- Syphilis (small, painless open sore or ulcer (called a chancre) on the genitals)
- Granuloma inguinale (small, beefy-red bumps appear on the genitals or around the anus)
- Lymphogranuloma venereum (small painless sore on the male genitals)
Other types of male genital soress may be caused by rashes such as psoriasis, molluscum contagiosum, allergic reactions, and non-sexually transmitted infections.
For some of these problems, a sore may also be found other places on the body, such as in the mouth and throat.
Home Care
- Do not try to treat yourself before seeing a health care provider. Self-care may hide the symptoms and make it harder to find the cause of the problem.
- Do not have sexual contact until you have had a medical exam.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if:
- You have any unexplained genital sores.
- New sores appear in other parts of your body.
What to Expect at Your Office Visit
The health care provider will perform a physical exam. The exam will include the genitals, pelvis, skin, lymph nodes, mouth, and throat.
The health care provider will ask questions such as:
- What does the sore look like and where is it located?
- Does the sore itch or hurt?
- When did you first notice the sore? Have you ever had similar sores in the past?
- What are your sexual habits?
- Do you have any other symptoms such as drainage from the penis, painful urination, or signs of infection?
Different tests may be done depending on the possible cause. These may include blood tests, cultures, or biopsies
Treatment will depend on the cause. Your health care provider may ask you to avoid sexual activity or use a condom for a while.

CENTRAL FALLS — Six people--three familiar names in local politics and and three political newcomers—have declared their intent to run for mayor of Central Falls in a special election to replace embattled former Mayor Charles Moreau.
The Rhode Island Board of Elections has set the date for a primary on November 6, the same day as the general election. The two candidates with the highest number of votes will then face off in a special election scheduled for December 11.
Near the end of Friday's 4 p.m deadline, one additional candidate, Kenneth Hazard, of 991 Lonsdale Ave., emerged to join the five individuals who declared for mayor on Thursday.
On Thursday, the first day to declare, former Mayor Thomas Lazieh, of 1072 Lonsdale Ave., current City Councilor James Diossa, of 175 Hedley St., and former Police Chief Joseph Moran, of 225 Shawmut Ave., all formally signed on as mayoral candidates.
They were joined by Tia Ristaino-Siegel, of 14 Worth St., who grew up in the city and manages several of her family's properties , and Bruce M. Corrigan, of 36 Temple Place, a retired Central Falls firefighter.
The 40-year-old Hazard is a general contractor and professional fighter who said he has lived in the city for most of his life. He said he wants to work to make Central Falls a cleaner, safer and more liveable place, especially for its youth, and has a lot of ideas on how to improve the city.
Corrigan, 65, is an Army veteran and longtime youth sports coach. He was was involved in the first Central Falls Community Center, established the Channel One drug and alcohol prevention program, and served as chairman of the volunteer board of directors governing the Wyatt Detention Center.
Several attempts to reach Ristaino-Siegel were unsuccessful.
Murphy said the candidates can pick up their nomination papers on October 2 and will have until October 9 at 4 p.m. to return them to the Board of Canvassers in City Hall with the signatures of 200 registered voters.

Bolivian Education Partner Wins Social Entrepreneurship Award
Jun 27 2012, Bolivia [BO], Education
The Bolivian Educational Organisation EDUCATIC has been voted the organisation with the most social impact at the National Innovation Talents awards 2012. EDUCATIC is supported by IICD and Edukans in the Connect4Change consortium.
EDUCATIC was praised for the impact their innovative projects have on the quality of education and the promotion of equal opportunities for young Bolivians. The National Innovation Talents awards 2012 (TIC Bolivia 2012) were presented in June in Cochabamba, Bolivia. 20 teams from 5 different areas of the country participated in the third edition of the competition, claiming awards for Best Economic Impact, Best Environmental Impact and Best Social Impact.
Catalyst for the decision of the jury was the work of EDUCATIC in promoting the proper use of technological resources, the generation of innovative teaching content with the use of ICT locally to improve student achievement, the encouragement of teachers to develop their own digital educational content, according to the needs of students, as well as the promotion of Bolivian culture.
EDUCATIC's CEO, Keiko Ignacio, has a long experience with the implementation of Information and Communication Technologies in Education and collaborates closely with IICD since 2001. She is happy to receive the recognition for her organisation's years of hard work: "Together with a team of young people with the same convictions of service to development, we undertook a variety of projects that promote local and national growth for the benefit of Bolivian children."
IICD collaborates with EDUCATIC and Edukans in the Connect4Change consortium project ' ICT for education in Bolivia.' In this project, teachers and students will be targeted in 80 schools throughout Bolivia to enhance education with the use of Information and Communication Technology such as computers.

We've been impressed and delighted by the level of expertise shown across a wide range of grade levels and subject areas, from architecture, design, and theater to history, world languages, and environmental engineering. The teachers recognized as prize winners displayed both their keen eye for what works in the classroom to engage today's students, as well as a mastery of 21st century technologies, including Google Earth and the new Ancient Rome 3D layer.

(aged 97)
Paris, France
|Alma mater
|École Normale Supérieure
|Roman Catholicism
Jean Guitton (August 18, 1901 – March 21, 1999) was a French Catholic philosopher and theologian.
Born in Saint-Étienne, Loire, he studied at the Lycée du Parc in Lyon and was accepted at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris in 1920. His principal religious and intellectual influence was from a blind priest, Francois Pouget. He finished his philosophical studies in the early 1920s and later became a professor in many French universities. During World War II, he was made a war prisoner by the Nazis. In the year 1954, he earned a literary award from the Académie française. From 1955 to 1968 he continued his works as a professor of philosophy at the Sorbonne. He became a member of the Académie française in 1961.
Invited as an observer to the ecumenical council of Vatican II, the first lay person to be granted this honor, he would become a close friend of Pope Paul VI.
He died in Paris at 97. During his life, he was also awarded the Great Cross of the National Order of Merit, Commander of the Légion d'Honneur and of the Arts and Letters Medal.
In most of his works, Jean Guitton writes about and discusses the confrontation between human faith and human logic. He wrote around fifty books.

Almost all of those properties are in the Belle Haven neighborhood, according to Doug Frederick, the city's housing manager. According to the Web site realtytrac.com, which gathers data from a variety of sources, foreclosure proceedings have begun on more than 100 houses in Menlo Park this year.
Though its options are limited, the city is beginning to toy with the idea of using state funds to purchase some of those homes with an eye to re-selling them as below-market-rate housing. Menlo Park is required to dedicate at least 20 percent of its redevelopment funds to affordable housing development, according to Arlinda Heineck, the city's community development director. All the funds must be deployed in the city's redevelopment district, which includes Belle Haven.
Mr. Frederick said he's trying to find out whether it would be possible for the city to use redevelopment money to buy up foreclosed homes, "rehabilitate" them, and sell them as below-market-rate units to Menlo Park residents who qualify. Councilman Andy Cohen has asked city staff to pursue the idea, and Mr. Frederick said that, depending on the housing department's findings, the City Council might see a proposal to that effect within the next two months.
The other towns within The Almanac's circulation area also saw several foreclosures in 2008, but at nowhere near the rate that Menlo Park did. Ten properties in Woodside, five in Atherton and four in Portola Valley are in some stage of foreclosure — including two homes valued at nearly $3 million, according to realtytrac.com.
"Basically on their own"
There's not much the city of Menlo Park can do for people who have already lost their homes, Mr. Frederick said; those people are "basically on their own."
"We haven't been able to come up with much of a strategy to work with those situations, because the issues are just so massive," he said.
The federal government has allocated funds to help stabilize neighborhoods that have been wracked by foreclosures, but San Mateo County hasn't seen a cent, according to Mr. Frederick. Such funding would have enabled the city to purchase and resell foreclosed units. But since that doesn't seem to be an option, the city plans to turn to the redevelopment agency for assistance.
Temporary re-housing agencies such as Shelter Network and InnVision have been forced to pick up the slack. But the magnitude of the problem exceeds the capacity of such organizations.
InnVision, in particular, seems to be buckling under the stress of a damaged economy. The nonprofit's Menlo Park facility, housed in the VA off Willow Road, is in jeopardy following a precipitous decline in donations over the last three months, said CEO Christine Burroughs. InnVision has cleared out nearly half of the 100-plus beds in the facility since Jan. 1, according to Ms. Burroughs, and is trying to stay afloat while it looks for a way to keep the shelter open.
The turmoil at InnVision will likely put more of a burden on Shelter Network's Haven House, the other the only temporary housing facility in Menlo Park. Its campus contains 24 one- and two-bedroom apartments — mostly for renters whose leases were abruptly terminated when their landlords defaulted on the mortgage, according to spokeswoman Jenny Luciano.
As of early December, 135 families were on the wait list for those apartments, Ms. Luciano said — three times the average in a stable economy. (The agency also offers financial assistance, helping families with an income to pay for a deposit on a new rental.)
Ms. Luciano and Mr. Frederick, the Menlo Park housing manager, both called the rate of foreclosures "unprecedented."
Why now?
Many blame the high foreclosure rate on banks for offering "sub-prime" mortgages that homebuyers couldn't afford in the first place.
But Mr. Frederick outlined a situation in which someone might have bought a house in Belle Haven for $500,000 a year ago, with an adjustable-rate mortgage. It would not be unreasonable, he said, to think the mortgage payment might have increased by as much as $800 per month at the first re-setting of the rate, he said — an amount the homeowner could no longer afford, given the state of the economy.
At the same time, the value of the property might have plummeted to $300,000 during the market collapse; but that doesn't mean a bank would agree to renegotiate the mortgage. The homeowner would find herself on the hook for nearly double the house's value, and might choose to cut her losses and default on the loan, rather than continue to pay for a home worth less than what she owes.
Habitat involvement?
Like the city of Menlo Park, the low-income housing agency Habitat for Humanity is looking into buying and reselling foreclosed properties, Mr. Frederick said. Habitat spokeswoman Jennifer Doettling said Habitat is looking into buying up to 20 houses in East Palo Alto, but that she isn't aware of a similar plan for Menlo Park. (Realtytrac.com shows nearly 300 properties in the foreclosure process in East Palo Alto, and over 350 in Redwood City.)
In a letter to The Almanac, Ash Vasudeva, incoming president of the Belle Haven Neighborhood Association, said the association would be in favor of any plan to convert foreclosed homes into below-market-rate units. He suggested that Habitat could play a role in such a venture. Councilman Cohen also said that he would like to try to get Habitat involved in easing the foreclosure crisis.
If Habitat for Humanity does decide to buy foreclosed properties in Menlo Park, Ms. Doettling said, the project would have no impact on the viability of Habitat's proposed 11-duplex development on a city-owned strip of land on Terminal Avenue in Belle Haven. Habitat would not divert funds from the proposed Terminal Avenue project to buy up foreclosed houses, she said. (The Belle Haven Neighborhood Association has voiced stringent opposition to that development).
There hasn't been any discussion in the Menlo Park housing department over whether the city's potential purchase of foreclosed properties would have any bearing on the proposed Terminal Avenue development, Mr. Frederick said.
Mr. Cohen stressed that Menlo Park and East Palo Alto should work together to find a way to offer homeowners relief, because the foreclosure crisis is an issue two cities share.
"(Our efforts) may not produce a result, but then again I'm going to keep on plugging away because I think it's an important issue," he said.

THE STARCHILD SKULL is a unique 900-year-old bone skull found in Mexico in the 1930s. The Starchild Project is an informal organization which began in 1999 when Ray and Melanie Young, the owners of the Starchild Skull, asked Lloyd Pye to head research efforts to determine what caused the unusual shape and properties of the bone.
The results uncovered by Pye's team ruled out all known deformities, and presented the scientific community with a genetic and physiological profile never before seen on Earth.
In Brief: A modified "shotgun" DNA recovery technique has been successfully used to recover coherent segments of the Starchild Skull's nuclear DNA. Of the (approx.) 3 billion base pairs in the skull's genome, several thousand have been recovered. These nuclear DNA fragments have been analyzed by the National Institutes of Health BLAST program, and a substantial percentage of that DNA has "no significant similarity" to any DNA previously found on Earth.
These results have been verified and repeated; however, more DNA needs to be recovered and analyzed before a formal report can be completed.

Early Adult Drinking Breast Cancer Link, Study Finds
CBS Atlanta (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSAtlanta.net/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSAtlanta.net/Health
ATLANTA (WAOK) – Teenagers and young women who drink are more likely to develop breast cancer, a new study says. Researchers from the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found that a woman who averages one drink per day between her first period and her first full-term pregnancy increases her risk of developing breast cancer by 13-percent. One of the researchers says parents should educate their daughters about the link between drinking and the risk of breast cancer because "the time period is very critical." The 20-year study, from 1989 to 2009, focused on more than 90-thousand mothers. The study is published in the "Journal of the American Cancer Institute."

Since the end of September 2010, a group of German OpenOffice volunteers left definitively the project to join the The Document Foundation and develop a fork version of the famous free productivity platform now controlled by Oracle. After just few months we have LibreOffice: a (more or less) new cross-platform productivity software based on OpenOffice version 3.3 beta. We compared both the free suites and apparently we did not notice particular differences in features and tools. Also the graphic interface is similar between the two platforms and the buttons position is the same. At the moment LibreOffice supports less languages in its Linux and MAC OS X versions and it is not compatible with Solaris based PCs. Both the productivity platforms are able to use the OpenOffice extension library. Consequently, it is clear that it's too early to notice relevant technical differences between the two competitors but, for sure, something will show off in the next versions. In fact LibreOffice has been created to guarantee a vendor independent office suite which can be developed with no copyright software chunks. The goal is prestigious and we can only say, Good Luck LibreOffice!

Linux SUCKS!↓
What great insight your post was deviled with Wee Willy, you have just convinced me to leave my free and stable debian OS for a expensive and unstable propieritary OS that is defective by design… I am glad that you spoke such true words of wisdom, that truly demonstrate your extensive knowledge of all the flaws of the POSIX standard, and all the strengths of the failed Mac implementation of the windows API, as I have never prior to your well written reply found any reason to leave Debian GNU/linux.
As to Libre vs Open Office. It will be interesting to see happens. It seems to me that the most obvious advantage of the Libre fork is that it will be "pure GPL"…
The way I understand it LibreOffice forked OpenOffice and now Oracle is deciding to make OpenOffice community based, so most likley what will happen is that LibraOffice will be the community choosen?↓
The only thing that Microsoft could make that wouldnt suck is a vacuum cleaner↓
One difference though is that LibreOffice has less help documentation than OpenOffice.↓

Two studies published recently in the prestigious journal The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) have discovered a new way to reverse type 1 in mice.
Both studies found that blocking a molecule in the immune system called IL-7 can stop the immune system attacking insulin producing beta cells. Following treatment with an IL-7 blocker, normal glucose levels were restored in up to 85% of mice who had new-onset diabetes.
On top of that, when the treatment course was completed, the mice remained free of type 1. This is particularly interesting as some other experimental immune therapies only seem to stop the immune attack for the duration of the treatment.
IL-7 is a molecule that is released by cells to help them signal and communicate with other cells. The researchers in these studies found that IL-7 upsets the part of the immune system that controls unwanted immune responses like the immune attack of beta cells. Blocking IL-7 helps the immune system control these rogue attacks and seems to stop the attack on beta cells.
Blocking IL-7 is an interesting new approach to treating type 1 and these studies have given us a new insight into how the condition develops. Another IL molecule, IL-2, has already been shown in other studies to fight against type 1 by helping the immune system regulate itself. If these results can be translated into humans, the IL family of molecules may become exciting new drug targets.
JDRF-funded researcher Dr Lucy Walker who worked on one of the studies said, 'These results suggest that the IL-7 may contribute to the autoimmune response in type 1 diabetes by interrupting a pathway that normally suppresses unwanted immune responses. This provides new information about how the immune function may be altered in people with type 1 and is an exciting step forward in our understanding of this condition.'

'The Kennedys' Update: Did Caroline Get the Miniseries Pulled?
Caroline Kennedy reportedly personally lobbied Anne Sweeney, co-chair of Disney Media Networks and president of Disney/ABC Television Group. Sweeney sits on the board of A&E Television Networks, the parent company of History.
Kennedy has a book deal with Disney's Hyperion publishing house and is editing a collection of unpublished interviews with her mother, Jackie Kennedy Onasis. She agreed to promote the collection on 'Good Morning America' and other media outlets. However, if AETN had gone through with the project, it's been suggested Kennedy would not have been as cooperative in promoting the Hyperion book.
Maria Shriver, a member of the Kennedy family and wife to Arnold Schwarzenegger, also lobbied to have the project shelved. Shriver used her NBC Universal ties and voiced her displeasure to Jeff Zucker and Jeff Gaspin. Gaspin sits on the AETN board as well. Shriver is also friends with Sweeney. The Disney executive serves on the board of the Special Olympics, which was founded by Shriver's mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver.
'The Kennedys' is still scheduled for international broadcast, airing in Canada on March 6. According to Deadline Hollywood, Showtime is reportedly mulling over airing the series.
'Kennedys' co-producers Muse Entertainment and Asylum Entertainment issued the following statement about History's cancellation of the series: "We are proud of the work all of our talent put into the making of 'The Kennedys' and the painstaking efforts that went into creating a drama that is compelling while rich in historic detail. Although we regret this does not fit into the History Channel's plans, we are confident that television viewers in the United States will join viewers from around the world in having an opportunity to watch this series in the near future."
Check out a teaser for the miniseries below.

Import prices in April 2006
May 15, 2006
The U.S. Import Price Index rose 2.1 percent in April.
The advance was driven by an 11.5-percent jump in petroleum prices which followed a comparatively modest 0.5-percent rise the previous month.
The April increase in petroleum prices was the largest for the index since a 13.4-percent rise in March 2005. Petroleum prices rose 32.5 percent over the past 12 months.
Nonpetroleum prices were unchanged in April after decreases in each of the previous two months that largely resulted from lower natural gas prices. For the year ended in April, nonpetroleum prices increased 0.8 percent while overall import prices advanced 5.9 percent.
The price index of overall exports rose 0.6 percent in April as a 0.7-percent increase in nonagricultural prices more than offset a 0.6-percent decline in agricultural prices.
These data are from the BLS International Price program. Import and export price data are subject to revision. Learn more in "U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes - April 2006" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 06-823.
