Surfing: The Royal Sport
|"THAT IS WHAT IT IS, a royal sport for the natural kings of earth. The grass grows right down to the water at Waikiki Beach, and within fifty feet of the everlasting sea. The trees also grow down to the salty edge of things, and one sits in their shade and looks seaward at a majestic surf thundering in on the beach to one's very feet. Half a mile out, where the reef is, the white-headed combers thrust suddenly skyward out of the placid turquoise-blue and come rolling in to shore. One after another they come, a mile long, with smoking crests, the white battalions of the infinite army of the sea. And one sits and listens to the perpetual roar, and watches the unending procession, and feels tiny and fragile before this tremendous force expressing itself in fury and foam and sound. Indeed, one feels microscopically small, and the thought that one may wrestle with this sea raises in one's imagination a thrill of apprehension, almost of fear. Why, they are a mile long, these bull-mouthed monsters, and they weigh a thousand tons, and they charge in to shore faster than anyone can run. What chance? No chance at all, is the verdict of the shrinking ego; and one sits, and looks, and listens, and thinks the grass and the shade are a pretty good place in which to be.
And suddenly, out there where a big smoker lifts skyward, rising like a sea-god from out of the welter of spume and churning white, on the giddy, toppling, overhanging and downfalling, precarious crest appears the dark head of a man. Swiftly he rises through the rushing white. His black shoulders, his chest, his loins, his limbs -- all is abruptly projected on one's vision. Where but the moment before was only the wide desolation and invincible roar, is now a man, erect, full-statured, not struggling frantically in that wild movement, not buried and crushed and buffeted by those mighty monsters, but standing above them all, calm and superb, poised on the giddy summit, his feet buried in the churning foam, the salt smoke rising to his knees, and all the rest of him in the free air and flashing sunlight, and he is flying through the air, flying forward, flying fast as the surge on which he stands. He is a Mercury -- a brown Mercury. His heels are winged, and in them is the swiftness of the sea. In truth, from out of the sea he has leaped upon the back of the sea, and he is riding the sea that roars and bellows and cannot shake him from its back. But no frantic outreaching and balancing is his. He is impassive, motionless as a statue carved suddenly by some miracle out of the sea's depth from which he rose. And straight on toward shore he flies on his winged heels and the white crest of the breaker. There is a wild burst of foam, a long tumultuous rushing sound as the breaker falls futile and spent on the beach at your feet; and there, at your feet steps calmly ashore a Kanaka, burnt golden and brown by the tropic sun. Several minutes ago he was a speck a quarter of a mile away. He has ``bitted the bull-mouthed breaker'' and ridden it in, and the pride in the feat shows in the carriage of his magnificent body as he glances for a moment carelessly at you who sit in the shade of the shore. He is a Kanaka -- and more, he is a human being, a member of the kingly species that has mastered matter and the brutes and lorded it over creation.
And one sits and thinks of Tristram's last wrestle with the sea on that fatal morning; and one thinks further, to the fact that Kanaka has done what Tristram never did, and that he knows a joy of the sea that Tristram never knew. And still further one thinks. It is all very well, sitting here in the cool shade of the beach, but you are a human being, one of the kingly species, and what that Kanaka can do, you can do yourself. Go to. Strip off your clothes that are a nuisance in this mellow clime. Get in and wrestle with the sea; wing your heels with the skill and power that reside in you; bit the sea's breakers, master them, and ride upon their backs as a king should.
And that is how it came about that I tackled surf-riding. And now that I have tackled it, more than ever do I hold it to be a royal sport. But first let me explain the physics of it. A wave is a communicated agitation. The water that composes the body of the wave does not move. If it did, when a stone is thrown into a pond and the ripples spread away in an ever widening circle, there would appear at the center an ever increasing hole. No, the water that composes the body of a wave is stationary. Thus, you may watch a particular portion of the ocean's surface and you will see the same water rise and fall a thousand times to the agitation communicated by a thousand successive waves. Now imagine this communicated agitation moving shoreward. As the bottom shoals, the lower portion of the wave strikes land first and is stopped. But water is fluid, and the upper portion has not struck anything, wherefore it keeps on communicating its agitation, keeps on going. And when the top of the wave keeps on going, while the bottom of it lags behind, something is bound to happen. The bottom of the wave drops out from under and the top of the wave falls over, forward, and down, curling and cresting and roaring as it does so. It is the bottom of a wave striking against the top of the land that is the cause of all surfs.
But the transformation from a smooth undulation to a breaker is not abrupt except where the bottom shoals abruptly. Say the bottom shoals gradually for from a quarter of a mile to a mile, then an equal distance will be occupied by the transformation. Such a bottom is that off the beach of Waikiki, and it produces a splendid surf-riding surf. One leaps upon the back of a breaker just as it begins to break, and stays on it as it continues to break all the way in to shore.
And now to the particular physics of surf-riding. Get out on a flat board, six feet long, two feet wide, and roughly oval in shape. Lie down upon it like a child on a coaster and paddle with your hands out to deep water, where the waves begin to crest. Lie out there quietly on the board. Sea after sea breaks before, behind, and under and over you, and rushes in to shore, leaving you behind. When a wave crests, it gets steeper. Imagine yourself, on your board, on the face of that steep slope. If it stood still, you would slide down just as a child slides down a hill on his or her coaster. ``But,'' you object, ``the wave doesn't stand still.'' Very true, but the water composing the wave stands still, and there you have the secret. If ever you start sliding down the face of that wave, you'll keep on sliding and you'll never reach the bottom. Please don't laugh. The face of that wave may be only six feet, yet you can slide down it a quarter of a mile, or half a mile, and not reach the bottom. For, see, since a wave is only a communicated agitation or impetus, and since the water that composes a wave is changing every instant, new water is rising into the wave as fast as the wave travels. You slide down this new water, and yet remain in your old position on the wave, sliding down the still newer water that is rising and forming the wave. You slide precisely as fast as the wave travels. If it travels fifteen miles an hour, you slide fifteen miles an hour. Between you and the shore stretches a quarter of mile of water. As the wave travels, this water obligingly heaps itself into the wave, gravity does the rest, and down you go, sliding the whole length of it. If you still cherish the notion, while sliding, that the water is moving with you, thrust your arms into it and attempt to paddle; you will find that you have to be remarkably quick to get a stroke, for that water is dropping astern just as fast as you are rushing ahead.
And now for another phase of the physics of surf-riding. All rules have their exceptions. It is true that the water in a wave does not travel forward. But there is what may be called the send of the sea. The water in the overtoppling crest does move forward, as you will speedily realize if you are slapped in the face by it, or if you are caught under it and are pounded by one mighty blow down under the surface panting and gasping for half a minute. The water in the top of a wave rests upon the water in the bottom of the wave. But when the bottom of the wave strikes the land, it stops, while the top goes on. It no longer has the bottom of the wave to hold it up. Where was solid water beneath it, is now air, and for the first time it feels the grip of gravity, and down it falls, at the same time being torn asunder from the lagging bottom of the wave and flung forward. And it is because of this that riding a surfboard is something more than a mere placid sliding down a hill. In truth, one is caught up and hurled shoreward as by some Titan's hand.
I deserted the cool shade, put on a swimming suit, and got hold of a surfboard. It was too small a board. But I didn't know, and nobody told me. I joined some little Kanaka boys in shallow water, where the breakers were well spent and small -- a regular kindergarten school. I watched the little Kanaka boys. When a likely-looking breaker came along, they flopped upon their stomachs on their boards, kicked like mad with their feet, and rode the breaker in to the beach. I tried to emulate them. I watched them, tried to do everything that they did, and failed utterly. The breaker swept past, and I was not on it. I tried again and again. I kicked twice as madly as they did, and failed. Half a dozen would be around. We would all leap on our boards in front of a good breaker. Away our feet would churn like the sternwheels of river steamboats, and away the little rascals would scoot while I remained in disgrace behind.
I tried for a solid hour, and not one wave could I persuade to boost me shoreward. And then arrived a friend, Alexander Hume Ford, a globe trotter by profession, bent ever on the pursuit of sensation. And he had found it at Waikiki. Heading for Australia, he had stopped off for a week to find out if there were any thrills in surf-riding, and he had become wedded to it. He had been at it every day for a month and could not yet see any symp-toms of the fascination lessening on him. He spoke with authority.
"Get off that board," he said. "Chuck it away at once. Look at the way you're trying to ride it. If ever the nose of that board hits bottom, you'll be disembowelled. Here, take my board. It's a man's size."
I am always humble when confronted by knowledge. Ford knew. He showed me how properly to mount his board. Then he waited for a good breaker, gave me a shove at the right moment, and started me in. Ah, delicious moment when I felt that breaker grip and fling me. On I dashed, a hundred and fifty feet, and subsided with the breaker on the sand. From that moment I was lost. I waded back to Ford with his board. It was a large one, several inches thick, and weighed all of seventy-five pounds. He gave me advice, much of it. He had had no one to teach him, and all that he had laboriously learned in several weeks he communicated to me in half an hour. I really learned by proxy. And inside of half an hour I was able to start myself and ride in. I did it time after time, and Ford applauded and advised. For instance, he told me to get just so far forward on the board and no farther. But I must have got some farther, for as I came charging in to land, that miserable board poked its nose down to bottom, stopped abruptly, and turned a somersault, at the same time violently severing our relations. I was tossed through the air like a chip and buried ignominiously under the downfalling breaker. And I realized that if it hadn't been for Ford, I'd have been disembowelled. That particular risk is part of the sport, Ford says. Maybe he'll have it happen to him before he leaves Waikiki, and then, I feel confident, his yearning for sensation will be satisfied for a time.

SPRING AND SUMMER CRUISES; Scenic Days And Nights Off Norway
By SARAH FERRELL
Published: February 1, 1998
ON shore, the Midsummer's Eve bonfires twinkle dimly in the sunshine as we sail out of Bergen. Jet-lagged, we seek out our cabin and go to bed long before dark. It is about 11 P.M., and by the time our ship makes port in Floro -- the first of several dozen stops on this 2,500-mile voyage along the western coast of Norway -- we are sound asleep, missing one of the few chances that we are going to have to watch the sun set.
My husband, Tom, and I have signed on for a round-trip cruise on Bergen Line's Nordnorge, one of 11 ships that sail, year round, from Bergen around the North Cape to Kirkenes, a town a few miles from the Russian border. The voyage encompasses the better part of 12 days and, for all practical purposes -- much of our route is above the Arctic Circle, and it is the latter part of June -- no nights.
The 464-berth Nordnorge, which went into service in March, is the newest of the fleet, replacing the 219-berth Kong Olav. (The cruise is marketed in North America by Bergen Line, although two shipping companies are involved in the commercial applications.) Until 1893, northern Norway was isolated during the long winter; in that year, however, the coastal steamer service was inaugurated to function throughout the year delivering mail, cargo and passengers. Two natural factors came into play: The Gulf Stream, which keeps the coastal waters from freezing, and several chains of islands, through which a sheltered course can be navigated. Although trucks and planes now deliver the mail, the coastal vessels still carry cargo, local passengers and an increasing number of tourists.
Our cabin is just wide enough to accommodate two narrow bunks, one that turns into a sofa by day and one that folds flat against the wall, and a small table, with shelves for binoculars and bird books, set between them. Pretty, but thin, plaid curtains cover a large window; there is a comfy chair, a dressing table and built-in storage units into which an amazing amount of stuff can be made to disappear. The bathroom is small, but has a big medicine cabinet, an excellent shower, thick white towels and an electrically heated floor. Not an inch is wasted, but it remains just this side of cramped.
Public spaces are ample, especially the two glass-walled lounges on the top deck in which one can sink into well-upholstered chairs and watch the frequently awe-inspiring scenery go by. The forward lounge, the Torghatten Salong, bans smoking, while passengers puff away merrily in the adjacent Vestfjorden Salong, where there is also a bar serving shockingly expensive drinks.
Since this is high season, there are two sittings for lunch and dinner. We choose the later ones, and end up sharing a corner table, surrounded by windows, with two delightful Dutch couples. The food is Norwegian, which is not as dire as it might sound. The open-seating breakfast buffet of fish and cold meats and cheese and breads is more than I can face, but Tom speaks well of it. Lunch is also served buffet-style, and, in addition to the incredibly fresh shellfish and pickled and smoked fish and salads and cheeses and pickled vegetables and three colors of roe, offers such exotica as seagull eggs and, on one occasion, braised whale. Dinners are three set courses, basically meat-and-potatoes alternating with fish-and-potatoes. The cuisine is what your grandmother might have served for Sunday dinner, provided that your grandmother could cook better than mine did; the roast reindeer with cranberry-studded gravy is a standout. The napery is paper.
Ah, but we did not sign up for this cruise for the food. Nor, for that matter, for the on-board activities. The Nordnorge has no swimming pool (although there is a small sauna and an exercise room with four machines, two of them bicycles), no casino (unless you count a game room with three video adventures and four slot machines, which are played indiscriminately by adults and children) and only limited entertainment, e.g., a tiny dance floor in the Stella Polaris bar, on which a troop of children racket around while a singer with keyboards performs Norwegian kiddie songs and such international hits as ''Cryin' Time.''
We are, however, aboard for the 24-hour scenery and the sheer excitement of being on a ship that navigates among islands and fjords with what seems like only inches to spare. One of the most dramatic events is the northbound approach to the Lofoten Islands, a wall of impenetrable-looking mountains that extends some 60 miles from the coast into the sea. They loom ahead as a dark, spiky mass silhouetted against a cloud-scattered blue sky; snow streaks their summits -- Norway has had a late, hard winter. As we approach a pair of fierce gray peaks, their slopes change from gray to dragon-skin green, little villages appear at their bases, and a narrow passage opens up, through which the Nordnorge glides.
A little farther north, the ship makes a detour for the Trollfjord, slipping into a passageway between almost vertical stone walls. The fjord, which is said to be about 100 yards wide at its entrance, is also less than two miles long; the Nordnorge must, and does, turn on a dime to get out again. The mountains on each side seem near enough to touch, and ring with the sound of dozens of rivulets and waterfalls as the snow melts in the warm sun. Afterward, what is called Trollfjord soup (it seems to be mainly onion) is served on the open afterdeck to restore our nerve.
THE kinder, lower Vesteralen pass by our window as we pull on our sleep masks. In the ever-changing landscape and the never-changing sunlight, the need to sleep has already become a severe annoyance.

Garrison Brothers introduce 'single-barrel straight' bourbon whiskey
Bourbon whiskey makers at Garrison Brothers Distillery in Hye announce the first single-barrel straight bourbon whiskey ever made in Texas.
Initially, the Garrison Brothers single barrel bottles will not be available at liquor stores, but only for sale at the distillery. Texas Senate Bill 905, recently passed by the Texas legislature, now makes it possible for craft distilleries to sell what they make.
Visitors can now purchase the single barrel and other Garrison Brothers Texas straight bourbon whiskies at the distillery in Hye.
"For years, bourbon drinkers and collectors have been asking us to release a single barrel, and it's high time we did," said proprietor and distiller Dan Garrison. "Senate Bill 905 was a great motivator. Now we have something new to offer both old friends and first time distillery visitors alike. We're extremely proud of our bourbon, we love showing off what we do, and we're excited to add this to our stable of bourbons.
"We're so confident of its quality, taste and character, we'll put ours up against any Kentucky or Tennessee bourbon in a blind taste test," Garrison said.
"Each bottle of single barrel will be unique," Garrison added. "Master distiller Donnis Todd will select a new barrel from the barn every week. He will offer visitors his tasting notes for that specific barrel and fill a few special bottles — emblazoned with a silver Texas star."
Visitors to the distillery can dip the bottle they choose into silver wax and personalize it — college ring imprints, initials, personal notes — no two bottles will ever be the same.
Each bottle will have the barrel number and bottle number hand-written on the side.
"Making straight bourbon requires a commitment of time, money and patience that most craft distillers are unwilling to make," Garrison said. "High-priced consultants and professional investor-types told us this could never be done. Well, it's been done now."

Under pressure from activist investor Bill Ackman, industrial giant Air Products and Chemicals announced Thursday that it will shake up its board.
Air Products said in a statement that it will add three new independent directors to its Board of Directors and will begin searching for a successor to replace chairman and CEO John E. McGlade, who will retire in 2014.
The changes are supported by Ackman, whose New York-based hedge fund firm Pershing Square Capital Management acquired a 9.8% stake in the company this year. Ackman has called Air Products "a great business in an industry with excellent long-term prospects."
McGlade will continue to serve as chairman and CEO during the search process and then as chairman for the transition period in 2014. The incoming CEO will also join the Board as a director.
The news follows Ackman's recent investment fail in JC Penney. Pershing Square, which was the retailer's largest shareholder, sold its approximate 18% stake last month after a public feud between the two entities. The sale cost Pershing Square about $473 million in losses.
Pershing Square manages about $10 billion in assets. Air Products, which provides products and services to enable customers to become more energy efficient, had nearly $10 billion in sale in fiscal year 2012.

If I need to purchase the server enterprise edition for our HPUX, does it come with a viewer for Windows 7 or do I still need to download the free viewer and will it work on Windows 7? I looked around on the website and saw server support for windows 7, but I will be running the server on HPUX, and only the viewer on windows 7. Thank you for your advice. Norma Jean

Style and substance
Culture | Spicy girls, prose, and other cultural buzz
When the spice hath lost its savor
Oh, no! The Spice Girls made a movie! Columbia Pictures threw one up on American screens called Spice World. The name sounds like somebody's bad idea for a theme park. Actually it's somebody's bad rehash of the old Beatles movie, A Hard Day's Night.
The Spice Girls sing pop songs that aren't good enough to be memorable nor bad enough to truly annoy. Their singles are top-40 tofu. When thrown into the mix of FM radio, Posh, Baby, Sporty, Scary, and Ginger Spice sound okay. On their own, they're simply forgettable.
Spice World takes the audience on the group's magical mystery tour bus just before a big show at Royal Albert Hall. Most of the movie is spent showing the Spice Girls doing cute things in big shoes. They fall off a boat, deliver a baby, and meet aliens. Not much else happens.
Lots of syntho-pop plays. Pop singer Meat Loaf drives the bus. A road agent (Richard E. Grant) says things like, "We've got to get ready for the show!" a lot. George Wendt from Cheers wants to make a movie about the quintet. An evil paparazzi wants to break them up to make headlines. And Roger Moore, Elton John, Elvis Costello, and Bob Geldof make cameo appearances.
Ho hum. This isn't even good kitsch.The Girls' acting would embarrass Madonna, and the filmmakers left them with a script that makes us miss The Monkees.
Honest rhetoric
Peggy Noonan is back. The most famous speechwriter of the Reagan/Bush era now gives lessons in rhetoric. Her new book, Simply Speaking (ReganBooks, ISBN 0-060-39212-6) is full of her thoughts on how to talk to people in public. Amid the usual how-tos lurks someone who loves words, especially clear words, and stands in awe of history's great figures.
Ms. Noonan's greatest gift is her ability to craft a successful speech based on substance. She likes words that convey a message instead of polishing an image. With copious asides and anecdotes, her advice fits her own style. "A good case well argued and well said is inherently moving," she writes. "It shows respect for the listeners."
Bill Clinton's speeches, of course, don't pass this test. Noonan says they lack depth. "He has the intensity of a deep and thoughtful person without the depth of a deep and thoughtful person," she complains. Another peeve is with writers who try to force a soundbite down their audience's throats. Be yourself and just write a good speech, she advises, and the magic five seconds will take care of itself.
Ms. Noonan's comments are often insightful, although she dislikes new-age liberals (like Clinton) while oohing and aahing old-age liberals (like FDR and JFK). Still, Ms. Noonan knows her stuff, and her ear for reaching middle America deserves study. In a world cluttered with endless buzzwords and puffery, her tips on honest, clear speech certainly point in the right direction.
New Grisham movie forgets the moral of the story
The Gingerbread Man is the latest John Grisham novel to hit the silver screen. It's another tale of moral tension, plot twists, and Southern lawyers. This time there's a plot with shades of Dashiell Hammet and Agatha Christie.
Kenneth Branagh (Hamlet, Henry V) is a divorced barrister with a cool red Mercedes, a not-so-cute libido, and Robert Downey Jr. as his sidekick. He picks up a Woman In Trouble (Embeth Davidtz from Schindler's List) after an office party. She claims her crazy hobo Daddy (The Apostle's Robert Duvall) is stalking her. She begs some high-powered help in getting him committed.
Pandemonium results. At one point when our lead gets in trouble, he calls on a defense team to keep him out of the slammer. One of his counselors is Clinton compadre Vernon Jordan in a cameo role (who would probably prefer now not to be in the public eye as this kind of fix-it man).
Robert Altman directed this feature and steered it away from the mainstream Grisham flicks. He conveys an eerie spookiness that supplants the glossiness of, say, The Firm.
The problem with this movie is that there's an excellent morality tale in Mr. Grisham's story, but Mr. Altman is too busy building a suspense thriller to notice. If the Branagh character hadn't spent the night with the Woman In Trouble, nothing would have happened. His indiscretions lead to his own destruction and the deaths of innocent people. Instead of showing the absurdity of avarice, as Mr. Altman did in The Player, The Gingerbread Man is just another postmodern nailbiter. This is a good movie that could have been great.

Here at Chefwear, each large department (chef coats, chef pants, chef hats, chef aprons) is broken down into even more specific categories (Premier, Five-Star, Four-Star, Three-Star) based on features and benefits . This is a helpful tool in searching for your perfect uniform. Not only can you see the break down in the Chefwear Magazine and online, but also at the product development level. Every category has a set of characteristics that are consistent across all of its items. In this series, we'll explore the four categories and help define which chef jackets, chef pants and kitchen aprons meet your needs.
The Premier line features our high-end chef jackets, sometimes referred to as show coats or event jackets. These chef coats are designed to help you look your best. Some chefs reserve these coats for special events and publicity pieces or presenting themselves in the front of the house of their restaurant. Other chefs choose a Premier Chef Jacket as their everyday chef uniform.
Premier Chef Jackets are made with premium fabric and top-of-the-line trims that should be handled with care. Two different fabric constructions are used: royal fine line cotton or a polyester/viscose lend. The 6.0 oz royal fine line cotton 3×1 twill is woven from extra-long staple cotton for its signature, supple feel and distinctive shine. The 6.2 oz 55/45 polyester/viscose 2×1 twill is stain and wrinkle resistant with a luxurious finish. Premium trims include hand-rolled or small cloth-covered buttons and satin piping.
Premier Chef Coats are all designed in the classic, European style with tapered waists, v-shaped button placement, and back seaming for a slim tailored fit. To maintain their distinguished look, there is no external branding (labels) on any of the Premier Chef Coats and very few of them feature sleeve thermometer pockets. They are finished with an inset breast pocket and welt.
Premier Chef Jackets are fully customizable for that personal touch. They may be made in a different fabric, lined at the cuffs, collar and lapel with a contrast fabric, or piping can be added or changed to a different color. The pocket, sleeve and jacket length are also customizable for a perfect fit.
To learn more about the other categories, select a line below:
- Five-Star Chef Coats
- Four-Star Chef Coats
- Three-Star Chef Coats
- Chef Pant Categories
- Chef Apron Categories

Here's a scenario: If Bob purchased a car for personal use for $12,000 in 2000 and sells that car for $1,000 this year, will he be required to recognize the $1,000 as income under the all-inclusive income concept on his tax return?-- John
Dear John,
We've got good news and bad news for your friend Bob. The good news is no, he won't have to recognize the $1,000 as income on his tax return. The bad news is he lost money on his transaction -- $11,000. If Bob had sold the car for more than what he originally paid, then he would need to report the profit as a capital gain.
And just in case you were wondering if Bob can take an $11,000 loss on the sale of his car this year, the answer is no. The tax laws do not allow individuals to claim losses from the sale of personal property.
If you have a car question, email it to us at

Gov. Branstad Releases Tax Returns
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Tax returns for Gov. Terry Branstad and his wife show they earned $185,249 in 2015 and made sizable charity donations.
Branstad's 48-page tax return was made available to the media Friday at the Iowa Capitol. The documents show the governor made a little over $31,000 in donations to Iowa charities, which is well over the average of about $4,000 in donations for his income level.
The donations, which include money for nine Catholic charities, helped lower Branstad's federal income tax rate to 10.18 percent, compared to the average rate of 13.89 percent.
Branstad was paid $127,734 for serving as governor. He paid $18,859 in federal taxes and will be refunded $11,784.
Waterloo Man Sentenced to 50 Years In Prison For Murder
WATERLOO, Iowa (AP) - A Waterloo man who pleaded guilty to killing his former girlfriend has been sentenced to 50 years in prison.
38-year-old Shaun Hogan received his prison sentence Friday. He pleaded guilty in March to second-degree murder for the July 2014 death of 29-year-old Crystal Gaffney.
He was initially charged with first-degree murder but pleaded guilty to the reduced charge in a plea deal with prosecutors.
Gaffney's body was found in the middle of a road near Walker in Linn County. An autopsy determined she died of head trauma.

Rs 5,000 crore to modernise about 40 airports, it is handing over the management of these airports to private parties on a revenue share basis.
So, by making any investment the private parties will earn profits and the government will get only a part of the revenue after spending so much money.
On AI, he said government was going in the same direction. First, you make it bleed and then you sell it off saying it is not performing, he said.
Both Raja and Sen said they will oppose such moves tooth and nail.
Denouncing the Civil Aviation Minister's statement, CPI(M)-affiliated trade union Centre of Indian Trade Union (CITU) reminded him that Air India belonged to the nation and was not the property of council of ministers.
"The Minister must note that the precarious financial situation of Air India today is the creation of reckless and irresponsible experiment of the merger of Air India and Indian Airlines by the Ministry and also the irresponsible decision to purchase aircraft without preparing for making use of them immediately after their arrival," CITU said in a statement.
It said any move for privatisation would be detrimental to the interest of the nation and called upon workers to unitedly protest against any step in that direction.

Oliver Perez Struggles in His Spring Debut
In his first spring appearance, Oliver Perez provided a recipe for his eventual release. The beleaguered Mets lefty allowed four runs on four hits and three walks in two innings Sunday against the Braves in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
More alarming, his velocity maxed out at 86 mph. Most of his pitches were clocked in the low 80s.
"I know my velocity is not there yet," Perez said. "In the past week, we've been working very hard. Everybody is a little tired."

Potential Mets Buyer No Longer Interested
Michael Repole—the co-founder of Vitaminwater, the chairman of Pirate's Booty Snacks and Energy Kitchen, and a Queens native—is no longer interested in purchasing a minority share of the Mets, he said in an e-mail interview Sunday. Major League Baseball, it was revealed last week, had loaned the Mets $25 million in November, when the team was in the midst of a liquidity crisis. "Under the right circumstance I would have an interest," Repole said. "The circumstances now are not right for me." Earlier this year, Repole had expressed a desire to buy part of the team to Steve Greenberg, the managing director of Allen & Company, the firm that Mets ownership retained to search for a buyer. Both the Mets and Greenberg are aware, Repole said, that he has changed his mind.

Yankees' Belliard Out With Calf Strain
Infielder Ronnie Belliard, fighting to make the squad as a utilityman, was scratched from Sunday's Yankee lineup with a calf strain and could miss more than a week of games.
Belliard, 35, has 114 career homers over 13 seasons, and played in 85 games with the Los Angeles Dodgers last year. He plays second base and the corner infield spots, and is competing with Eric Chavez and Brandon Laird, among others, for one of the Yankee backup positions.

Category: The Vampire Diaries TV
TV Guide's Robyn Ross chats with Vampire Diaries guest star Dawn Olivieri about her turn as Andie Star and why Mystic Falls' resident reporter will not end up a victim.
Will Andie be disposable to Damon when he's done using her?
Olivieri: Damon thinks that he's just using her, but Andie is smarter than the girls you've seen him fall [for]. Andie is a worthy opponent not in physicality, but in the mind. What's going to be interesting is when Andie comes to from her comatose state. She's a news reporter so she's not going to be a victim of a crime and let things happen. The unfortunate thing for Andie is she's going to want to get to the bottom of it.
And The TV Chick has more from Steven R. McQueen, touching on THAT KISS and Jeremy's role in the Gilbert family legacy.
Obviously, Jeremy's really curious about his family history, so is that something that will be explored in the second half of the season?
Yeah, eventually. He's not ready to become friends with Uncle John yet. He's too hurt by him. But he's very curious. That's definitely something that's always on his mind. He thought he knew his dad, but apparently he doesn't. So he wants to know what's going on. He's just not ready to ask.

'Misunderstanding,' alcohol caused downtown shooting
A shooting early Wednesday morning outside a Charleston hotel started over a misunderstanding related to ordering a pizza, said Lt. Steve Cooper of the Charleston Police Department. Michael Dale Underwood II, of Beckley, allegedly shot Charlie Scott in the back outside of the Ramada Inn Downtown and Recovery Sports Grill at about 2 a.m. Wednesday. Scott suffered "non life-threatening" injuries and was treated at a local hospital, Cooper said. "We had a very heavy police presence [Tuesday night] and despite that you can't always [prevent] crime when someone under the influence of alcohol makes a catastrophic decision," Cooper said. Underwood was caught on video surveillance physically fighting with Scott, then getting a handgun and shooting him, according to the criminal complaint. Scott had wounds to his left shoulder and left thigh, according to the complaint. Underwood, 30, turned himself in to police on Wednesday afternoon. He was arraigned on a malicious wounding charge in Kanawha County Magistrate Court. His bail was set at $250,000 and he faces two to 10 years in prison if convicted.

Category: Signature Method for E-Filing
I didn't file a return last year. What information do I enter to sign my return?
When you file your return electronically the IRS requires that you provide an electronic signature. This can be one of three numbers, either an IRS issued current year e-file signature pin, your prior year AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) or your prior year PIN for verification. The AGI can be found on line 37 of the form 1040, line 21 of the form 1040A and line 4 or the form 1040EZ.
If you did not file in the prior year, you will not be able to obtain an IRS e-file signature PIN and you will not have a prior year PIN to use either. In this case, you must enter an amount in as a "Prior Year AGI". Since you didn't file last year, the IRS does not have a prior year AGI on file for you. Simply enter "0" for your "Prior Year AGI" and leave your "Prior Year PIN" blank.
Note: Within the e-file process, if you select "No" that you did not file a return in the prior year, the TaxSlayer program will automatically populate a "0" for you. You will then have to only create your 5-digit current-year PIN.

Always somewhere close
Winter Jefferson, one of Strawberry Singhs best friends, decided to reach out to us bloggers and ask us what it is that gives us hope. Strawberry recently got her heart broken bad, and all of us giving her hope in our blogposts is a way to show that we're here and that we hope she feels better soon.
Hope… what is hope? If you look up the definition of the word it says "A wish or desire accompanied by confident expectation of its fulfillment". Fancy words but I think we each give the word hope meaning with our inner feelings.
What gives me hope when life gets to be hard on me? Friendships, family and music. Friends stand by me and tell me to stay strong and whenever needed kick my ass so I don't get lost in selfpity. My family is there for endless support and unconditional love. And music just helps me relax and clear my thoughts. I find comfort in beautiful lyrics.
For todays post, I picked a song from Lifehouse, that holds special meaning to me.
This song always gives me hope and strenght because it reminds me that loved ones are always close to you, as you keep them in your heart. And with loved ones around you can overcome anything!
Berry, this meme is for you. Having your friends by your side will give you hope, I am certain your family will be there for you too and I hope for you that you will find comfort and peace in music aswell. Sending you lots of love and big big hugs! <3
It doesn't matter where you go
You're still a part of me
I don't know much
But I know you are always somewhere
I'm telling you from the heart
You know I love you most
If I break or fall apart
You're always somewhere close
Whenever I feel lost and all alone
You're always somewhere close
I'm telling you from the heart
You know I love you most
If I break or fall apart
You're always somewhere close

Patrick Gillespie opposes Anthony Santino
(Page 3 of 5)
Santino: We will work with federal, state and county authorities, taking appropriate steps to harden our infrastructure to protect against another hurricane, storm surge and tidal flooding. The town has already started replacing bulkheads and repairing our Marine Nature Study Area in Oceanside (a natural barrier against tidal flooding). Our building department continues to help neighbors raise their homes and apply for federal FEMA/ICC (increased Cost of Compliance) funds. Keeping neighbors informed is one of the most serious responsibilities of government. My office and the town did this well. We will continue to encourage other levels of government and utilities to do the same throughout crises.

Unique masonry ideas for your home
A fireplace can add value to outdoor living, as it can benefit homeowners on warm and chilly nights. | Photo courtesy of Kevin Stehr
Homeowners can encourage outdoor living in their backyard spaces by adding unique outdoor masonry touches.
A masonry contractor can help update any outdoor area. Consider adding one of these areas to your home to maximize your outdoor living space:
Outdoor fireplace
An outdoor fireplace should face the home so that a lit fire can be seen from any window that looks out over the backyard. The materials used in construction are cement for the foundation, cinder blocks for the construction and mortar to lay the block. A stone veneer is placed over the block with mortar to give the finished appearance. Usually a stone slab is placed on the top of the fireplace to complete the construction.
Pool waterfall
An artificial waterfall gives the pool the look of an oasis, and the sound of running water is refreshing and calming to tired nerves as well as minds and bodies. The waterfall is made from a cinder block base around a water pump on a cement foundation. The water pump recycles water from the pool. Mortar binds the blocks and the rock veneer to the cinder block base. Then, natural or cultured stone provides a natural appearance and makes the space inviting and sumptuous.
Retaining wall
Retaining walls can give a yard more space. A slope can be dug out and the remaining cliff can be reinforced by the wall. Some builders prefer to use cement in the trench at the bottom of the wall for added strength. The gravel is poured into the hollow space in hollow blocks after each layer is laid for further wall stability. Solid blocks do not need gravel. Dirt from the bank behind the wall is packed tightly against the wall as it's constructed. Layers continue until the desired height is reached.
Stone columns can be placed around a patio to further define the space. They can also be used for part of a backyard fence. They can stand at intervals around a swimming or garden area for trellises or pavilions. Materials needed for stone columns are rebar, cement, brick or block for the structure of the column and mortar. Stone veneer can line the outside of the columns. Holes are dug for footings. Rebar and cement is laid for the foundation footings. Every stage is carefully measured and straightened with a leveler and a plumb line so that the columns are straight.
People can create the backyard garden, kitchen, and pool area of their dreams. Adding some structures like a fireplace or waterfall make the outdoors so much more inviting for quiet afternoons reading and daydreaming, as well as summer days and evenings with friends and family.

SAFC at Wembley: 1985
by Kate Smith
A photo gallery from Sunderland's Milk Cup final v Norwich.
Ahead of this weekend's game at Wembley Stadium safc.com looks back on Sunderland's trip to the national stadium from 1985, where Len Ashurst's side took on Norwich City in the Milk Cup final.
The Canaries ran out 1-0 winners following an own goal from Gordon Chisholm, who deflected Asa Hartford's shot past goalkeeper Chris Turner.
Sunderland had the chance to pull back in the second half when Norwich defender Dennis van Wijk handled the ball, however, Clive Walker, who inspired Sunderland to 5–2 aggregate win over Chelsea in the semi-final, watched his spot kick get denied by the post.

Israel opens 13 polling stations across country to allow Russian citizens to cast vote in presidential election, as some voice concern over ballot fraud
Polina Perlman
Published: 03.04.12, 14:52 / Israel News
Polina Perlman
"I love my country and I believe anyone who can - should vote," said Anna from Petah Tikva.
Putin and wife cast their vote (Photo: AP)
"I've erased all of the names (from the ballot) and chose to vote against them all in an act of protest against Putin," he explained. "I believe, like most of my fellow citizens, that Putin is a thief… The other candidates are no different, that's why I voted the way I did."
Meanwhile, Opposition leaders and Russian observers say they are seeing widespread violations in elections that are expected to return Vladimir Putin to the Kremlin.
Putin, who was president in 2000-2008, is expected to easily win the Sunday election against four challengers. But if credible evidence of vote manipulation emerges, it would bolster the determination of opposition forces to continue the unprecedented wave of protests that arose in December.
Putin, who voted in Moscow with his wife Lyudmila in a rare joint public appearance, dropped his ballot paper before voting and had to pick it up. Asked by reporters whether he ruled out a runoff, he said it would "depend on the voters."

Tappenden, Paul (2009) Evidence and Uncertainty in Everett's Multiverse. [Preprint]
This is the latest version of this item.
Download (403Kb) | Preview
I endorse the view that it may be of no relevance to the acceptability of the Everett interpretation of quantum mechanics as a physical theory whether or not an informed observer can be uncertain about the outcome of a quantum measurement prior to its having occurred. However, I suggest that the very possibility of post-measurement, pre-observation uncertainty has an essential role to play in both confirmation theory and decision theory in a branching universe. This is supported by arguments which do not appeal to Van Fraassen's Reflection Principle.
