ARLINGTON, Texas -- I think I would look good in a cowboy hat.
Seriously, when you are in a state like this for as long as we have been you start to talk with a drawl and wonder if a string tie is a good way to go.
It's almost over and we have the Gator boys to thank for another deep run in the tournament. It was great seeing so many people Friday night -- Mike Weinar, the former UF manager who is now special assistant to Rick Carlisle with the Mavericks; former UF golfer Pat Bates, now teaching in Oklahoma City and Joakim Noah, who I talked to in the Gator locker room.
I also found a great lunch place called the West End Pub where the tomato basil soup was excellent.
This is Day 11 in the great state of Texas. At least we know now when we'll be coming home to Gainesville.
-- Pat Dooley

Did you know?
With its progressive Constitution, South Africa was the first country in Africa to legalise same-sex marriage.
The beauty and diversity of North West province, along with its proximity to Gauteng, make it an attractive option for weddings, both small and large. You can choose from country settings in the Magaliesberg, a bush wedding in a game reserve or opulence at the famous Sun City.
A bush wedding is an authentically African affair, and weddings in North West province can offer an experience that is close to nature.
There are many small, private game reserves – some just an hour from Johannesburg – that are well-equipped for weddings. These include venues like the well-known Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge next door to the Pilanesberg National Park, or the Askari Game Lodge in Plumari Private Game Reserve.
In addition, the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve, the fourth-largest game reserve in the country, has dozens of luxury lodges where you can combine a safari holiday with an idyllic wedding setting for you and your guests.
The province is also home to the Sun City Resort and the extravagant Palace of the Lost City. Located next to the Pilanesberg, this holiday and entertainment complex is famous for its world-class golf courses, casinos and hotels. Sun City offers comprehensive wedding packages at various indoor and outdoor venues. There is a bushveld boma, a chapel with a mountain backdrop and the five-star opulence of the Palace of the Lost City.
Closer to Johannesburg and Pretoria, Hartbeespoort Dam and the surrounding area of Kosmos, in particular, are peppered with boutique hotels, lodges and guest houses, making it a convenient wedding destination for guests who need to fly in for the event. Its proximity to Gauteng's big cities also means that there are experienced wedding service providers close by to help you plan your event.
Other destinations for weddings in North West province include lodges in Swartruggens, in the heart of the province's agricultural belt, and in the Magaliesberg, where venues like Whispering Pines Country Estate, Usiba Country Lodge, Valley Lodge and Magalies Manor all have gorgeous gardens, catering facilities and accommodation for you and your guests.
Ifafa and Brits, as well as other small towns in the province like Groot Marico, Lichtenburg and Klerksdorp, are able to cater for small, relaxed, country-style weddings with lots of local flavour.
And, on the southern border of the province, there are exclusive Vaal River resorts that can host riverside and country weddings.

Cardinals' skid hits three after offense quieted
Freese's struggles continue; St. Louis strands 10 on the basepaths
ST. LOUIS -- The clubhouse had mostly cleared out by the time David Freese emerged from the indoor batting cage, drenched in sweat, bat in hand.
Immediately upon the conclusion of the Cardinals' 2-1 loss to the Reds on Monday, Freese made a direct line to the cage, where he continued his quest to find his swing.
Freese's night -- and, in many ways, his season -- seemed a microcosm of the team's series-opening loss, one that was sealed by the Cardinals' inability to capitalize upon opportunities. With 36,681 fans at Busch Stadium, the Cardinals stranded 10, as their productivity with runners in scoring position continued to decline.
Through it all, no one endured a more exasperating few hours than Freese.
"I feel terrible," Freese said following his 0-for-4 night. "It's frustrating. The big thing is not being able to help the team right now. I think I know, and the team knows, that I'm going to get out of it. But it stinks. You learn every day in this game, and this is a tough stretch for sure."
Freese admitted that his troubles have spiraled from partly mechanical to mostly mental. He's trying to do too much, attempting to will his way on base during a hitless stretch that now extends 16 at-bats. There was hardly much positive reinforcement before that, either. He is still awaiting his first home run, and his season average sits at .163.
And as often happens when a player is seeking his way out of a slump, the struggles were magnified by the situations in which he couldn't come through.
"You could really see his frustration when he came back in," manager Mike Matheny said. "We're going to have to just sit and continue to help him figure out how to get there. He will sooner than later, but I think, no question, sooner is better than later. We have to just keep trying different things and get him to breathe a little bit and trust himself."
Hitting sixth in a lineup that was without Carlos Beltran, Freese batted with Yadier Molina on base in front of him three times. He struck out in the first instance before grounding into a double play in the next. And just when the Cardinals appeared to have something going in the eighth -- which started with consecutive doubles from Allen Craig and Molina to close the deficit to one -- Freese followed with weak squibbler to the pitcher.
None of his last 12 at-bats has resulted in a ball even making it out of the infield.
"I'm in a huge spot," Freese said, referring to his place in the batting order. "Very rarely are the guys in front of me going to go down 1-2-3 throughout the whole course of the game. I have to capitalize, and that comes into not doing too much. It's basically to the point that I have to act like there is nobody on every time I go up there and do what I do, which is hit hard line drives. The mind is spinning a lot."
He singled out the need to fix the mental side before adding, "It's just about seeing the baseball. I'm not seeing it. The [batting practices] are good. The cage work is good. I just get in the game and try to do too much. That's a recipe for disaster."
Freese is hardly the only one scuffling, though his struggles are the most pronounced. But on a day when the Cardinals made headlines for their attempts to fix their weary bullpen, it was a collectively hushed offense that foiled Adam Wainwright's attempts to close April with a fifth win.
One day after totaling three hits against a pair of Pirates rookies, the Cardinals had five in six innings against Reds starter Mat Latos. The club stirred off reliever Jonathan Broxton in the eighth but couldn't advance the potential tying run past second. Cincinnati closer Aroldis Chapman followed with his sixth save.
Carried earlier this month by timely hitting, the Cardinals have been stung by a lack of it lately. A team that entered Saturday batting .350 with runners in scoring position through the first 22 games has gone 4-for-26 in such spots since. That included a 2-for-12 mark on Monday.
"It's tough to rely on [timely hitting] over the long haul of the season," Matheny said. "We needed those tonight, and you're playing with fire when you're expecting that to happen. The bunches are going to come, too. Right now it's not happening very often."
That sealed the loss for Wainwright, who entered the game averaging six runs of support per start. The Reds scored a first-inning run off him before Xavier Paul's groundout in the fourth extended the Reds' lead. Wainwright issued an intentional walk to the next batter before retiring the final 10 hitters he faced in his 99-pitch start.
"It was a tough game to lose," Wainwright said. "Their guy, Latos, threw some tough pitches. Sometimes you have to matchup zeros with someone who is throwing great, and tonight I didn't match zeros."
"He's on a roll the way he's been pitching lately," Latos said of Wainwright. "I knew I had to match up. It's one of those things where one mistake could cost you the game, especially the way he's been pitching."
Wainwright's ERA inched up to 2.03 -- tied with Shelby Miller for eighth in the National League -- with Monday's performance, but overall, there has been little not to like about his first month of work. He averaged 7.4 innings per start, struck out 43 and walked only three.
Though the rotation has posted a 1.54 ERA over the past nine games, the Cardinals have won just five times. The absence of a more dominant record has been the result of a combustible bullpen and, more recently, a tamed offense.
"Right now we've had three bad games in a row," Molina said. "We just have to keep battling."

Admiral's Club: The Best of Fall's Nautical-Meets-Military Trend
Former first lady Nancy Reagan wore so many fire-engine red dresses that the color became known as "Reagan Red." But today, there's a new queen of crimson: Rihanna. Whether she's wearing a sheer Azzedine Alaïa gown to the 2013 Grammy Awards or a red-hot Calvin Klein dress (with matching Manolo Blahnik heels) to GQ's 2012 Men of the Year party, the 25-year-old singer loves to wear signature color on the red carpet. To top it off, she's been known to dye her hair bright red.
"Yellow is my absolute favorite color to wear," Solange Knowles told The New York Times. And it's easy to see why. At the 2012 Met Gala she stood out without screaming for attention in a canary-yellow peplum gown by Rachel Roy. Then, at the 2012 CFDA Awards, she paired a yellow paillette Marni dress with yellow Missoni sandals. The color looks so good on Solange, that her big sister, Beyoncé, has even been known to get in on the act.

POLICE are urgently appealing for help to find a 70-year-old man from Pershore who has gone missing.
Christopher Guy Treharne was last seen in Pershore town centre on Sunday, March 2, afternoon and last spoke on the phone to someone at about midday on Monday.
He is described as 6ft 1ins tall, with blue eyes, dark hair going grey around the sides, a thick moustache and he walks with a limp. He may still have reddening to his forehead following a previous fall.
He has lived in the Pershore area for five or six years and is known locally as Guy. It is believed he may be wearing a brown waxed-type jacket and green Wellingtons.
Inspector Rebecca Love from police in South Worcestershire said: "We are very concerned for Mr Treharne's welfare and his family is very worried about him.
"He has been missing for several days and has not answered calls. For that reason we are treating him as a high risk missing person.
"I am appealing to Mr Treharne directly to contact the police or his family. They are very distressed about your disappearance and all they want is to know that you are safe and well."
Anyone with information about Mr Treharne and his whereabouts is asked to call police immediately on the non emergency number 101 quoting incident number 691s 050314. Alternatively information can be passed on to the charity Missing People by telephoning 116 000.

The National Institutes of Health funded a study by a Web-based service, called Konnectology which has identified the top 10 kidney transplant centers in the United States, and at the top of their list is Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center. All 246 kidney transplant centers in the United States were assessed using publicly reported data from the transplant centers and Medicare.
"We, at Banner Good Sam are very proud of this most recent accolade for our Transplant Center," said Lauren Rutledge, Director of Banner Good Samaritan Organ Transplantation Center. "Our goal is to treat every patient dignity, respect, and excellent patient care."
Banner Good Samaritan is Arizona's oldest and most experienced transplant center. The first kidney transplant in Arizona was performed at the hospital on Violet Lopez in 1969. There have been almost 3,200 kidney transplants performed at Banner Good Samaritan in the years following.
Konnectology found wide variations in patient outcomes among transplant centers. While the average survival rate for three years after transplant is high at 90 percent, survival varies widely depending on the center. The new method reveals that the risk of death is three times higher at the worst center compared to the best. A highly accurate scientific method was used to assess the transplant centers based on patient outcomes, experience and wait times.
Patients are referred to the Banner Good Samaritan Transplant Center from all over the western United States and are cared for by a skilled team of transplant surgeons and an interdisciplinary team dedicated to providing the best care available to patients requiring a transplant. The team provides an integrated approach to care that helps patients and their families before, during and after the transplant. This includes the highest standards of hospital and outpatient medical care, combined with a comprehensive network of support led by transplant nursing coordinators and social workers.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- A 26-year-old central Ohio woman has been sentenced to five years in prison for administering a fatal dose of heroin to a 37-year-old man last year.
The Columbus Dispatch (http://bit.ly/UTcasg ) reports that Emily Thacker of Westerville was sentenced Monday after pleading guilty to one count of involuntary manslaughter.
Authorities said Thacker injected Russell Ronske with what turned out to be a fatal dose of heroin at an apartment after a night of partying. Prosecutors said she also injected Ronske's girlfriend, who also overdosed and nearly died.
Ronske died at a hospital emergency room.
Thacker said in court that she was "sorry that everything unfolded the way it did."
Four other felony charges were dropped as part of the plea agreement.

HOUSTON - A driver led police on a chase through west Houston Friday that ended after a crash and shots being fired.
Officers said the chase started shortly after 9 a.m. in the 9500 block of Westheimer Road. It moved to Briar Forest, Memorial, Bunker Hill and Gessner, where speeds reached 80 mph on those streets, authorities said.
The truck got a flat tire, but kept moving. Two officers, one with Houston police and the other with Memorial Villages police, fired shots at the truck during the chase, investigators said.
Nathan Sprague said he got caught in the middle of the chase.
"I pull over to the side and get my flashers on, like you're supposed to do, and man, he came flying, literally, in the air," Sprague said. "When he came down, he jumped over and just clipped the side of me and just kept going."
The 11-mile chase ended on Tanner at Gessner about 20 minutes after it started. A man and woman were taken into custody.
Police did not say why the driver refused to stop when officers tried to pull him over.
The pickup truck may have been stolen, officials said. Items found in the pickup truck were stolen, investigators said.
No injuries were reported.

Reason for Policy
Statement of Policy
Who Should Know This Policy

The right to privacy is a deeply held conviction, especially within intellectual and academic communities. Privacy is critical to the intellectual freedom that forms the foundation of higher education. While the right to individual privacy is highly valued in the University community, it must, however, be balanced with legal obligations and the larger needs of the community.
Although Purdue University seeks to create, maintain, and protect the privacy of electronic information on its IT Resources, users should be aware that the use of Purdue's IT Resources is not completely private. Accordingly, users of Purdue's IT Resources are hereby specifically notified that they have no expectation of privacy in connection with their use of such IT Resources. Except as provided in this policy, Purdue University does not routinely monitor the content of communications or transmissions using IT Resources. The normal operation and maintenance of the University's IT Resources require the back up and caching of data and communications, the logging of activity, the monitoring of general usage patterns, and other such activities. There are also special circumstances such as illness; death; violation of University policies, regulations procedures or rules; or illegal activity which may warrant intrusive or restrictive action within an individual's computer account and/or devices.
The purpose of this policy is to outline the special circumstances under which the University may access content or electronically stored wire and electronic communications and information on its IT Resources in order to protect its legitimate business and academic Interests. Those legitimate business and academic Interests include Purdue's need to ensure that it can, without limitation, operate and maintain its IT Resources as well as protect the integrity, security, or functionality of University IT Resources; protect the University's other property, rights, and resources; ensure compliance with University policies, procedures, or regulations; preserve the integrity and reputation of the University; safeguard the property, rights, and data of third parties; and comply with applicable law.
This policy covers students, faculty, staff, and any and all individuals or entities using any Purdue IT Resources and all uses of such IT Resources. Any individual or entity using Purdue IT Resources consents to all of the provisions of the following policy and agrees to comply with all of the terms and conditions set forth herein, all other applicable University policies, regulations, procedures and rules, and with applicable local, state, and federal law and regulations.
Violations of this policy or any other University policy or regulation may result in the revocation or limitation of IT Resource privileges as well as other disciplinary actions or may be referred to appropriate external authorities.
This policy covers the following types of information at all Purdue campuses:
- Data, e-mail, and voice mail stored in IT Resources, including without limitation, computer accounts on University-owned systems or other University-owned Devices.
- Data, e-mail, and voice mail stored in computer accounts or other Devices managed by the University on behalf of an associated organization; for example, the Purdue Research Park.
- Voice and data telecommunications traffic to, from, or between IT Resources, including without limitation any of the Devices listed above.
Policy Statement
In general, the types of information enumerated above are considered private and cannot be accessed by someone other than the person to whom the IT Resource account has been assigned, the person from whom the information originated, or the person to whom the Device has been assigned. Furthermore, as noted above, Purdue University does not routinely monitor the content of communications or transmissions using IT Resources. The University does, however, specifically reserve the right, with or without notice, to intercept, access, monitor, inspect, copy, store, use, or disclose the contents of communications or transmissions employing IT Resources when it reasonably believes these actions are appropriate in order to protect its Interests.
More specifically, and without limiting the foregoing general rights, the University reserves the right to monitor and inspect computer accounts and Devices as warranted by the need to protect the information and services held on University IT Resources and any legal obligations that arise, and the University may, without notice, use: (a) security tools designed to locate security flaws in equipment connected to IT Resources; (b) network monitoring hardware and software that capture the contents of packets traversing the network; (c) network hardware and software designed to protect IT Resources and users of IT Resources, including without limitation Anti-Phishing Services, Anti-Virus Services, Intrusion Detection Systems, Spam Filtering Services, and Anti-Spyware Services; or (d) system log information, including without limitation source and destination for a connection, session start and end times, login name, timestamps, and commands issued. In addition, and again without limiting the above-enumerated general right to act when it reasonably believes these actions are appropriate in order to protect its Interests, the University may, acting through University-authorized technicians and administrators and pursuant to the procedures specified herein, access or permit access to the contents of communications or electronically stored wire and electronic communications and information employing IT Resources if it:
- Has a reasonable belief that a process active in the account or device is causing or may cause significant damage to University IT Resources or could cause loss/damage to user, University, or third-party data.
- Receives a written request from federal, state, or local l aw enforcement agencies and complies with applicable University policies.
- Has a reasonable belief that an individual has or is violating University policies, regulations, procedures, or rules using the accounts or Devices in question.
- Determines that a staff member, faculty member, or student is deceased, has been terminated, or is otherwise unavailable for the purposes of retrieving information that is critical to the operational effectiveness of the department.
- Receives a written request from the Office of the Dean of Students on behalf of the parents, guardian, or personal representative of the estate of a deceased student.
- Receives a written request from the Purdue Director of Audits when Internal Audit is investigating fiscal misconduct linked to the user whose account or Device is in question.
- Is authorized by an appropriate order of a court of competent jurisdiction and complies with applicable University policies relating to the handling of such orders.
Again, without limiting the foregoing general rights, the University may, in its sole discretion, disclose the results of any general or individual monitoring or accessing permitted hereunder, including the contents and records of individual communications, to appropriate University personnel or law enforcement agencies or use those results in appropriate University disciplinary proceedings. Where applicable and warranted, the account or equipment user will be notified of the accessing or monitoring and the corrective actions taken.
The contents of the user's e-mail, computer accounts, Devices, and network traffic may be recorded and stored to prevent destruction should the information be requested pursuant to valid legal process.
All users of University IT Resources, as a condition to the use of University IT Resources, specifically consent to the general rights of Purdue University specified herein.
Except for monitoring of activity and accounts of individual users of University IT Resources when the user has voluntarily made them accessible to the public, or where the University has reserved the right to do so without notice or by policy, any access to the contents of communications or electronically stored wire and electronic communications and information employing IT Resources permitted under this policy must, in addition to any requirements specified herein, be authorized as follows:
- A dean, in the case of an academic unit, a vice president in the case of an administrative unit, and/or a chancellor in the case of a regional campus shall have made a written finding prior to such access that the access is reasonably required in order to protect the University's Interests and shall have forwarded such written finding to the Office of the Vice President for Information Technology.
- The official designee of the Office of the Vice President for Information Technology shall have made a written finding prior to such access that: (a) the access is reasonably required in order to protect the University's Interests, and (b) authorizes the requested access and specifies the scope and conditions of any permitted access. These written findings shall be maintained by the Office of the Vice President for Information Technology.
- Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Vice President for Information Technology or his or her designee may authorize access in the event that he or she reasonably determines that: (a) there exists an emergency that materially threatens the University's Interests, (b) that emergency access is reasonably required in order to protect the University's Interests, and (c) he or she specifies the scope and conditions of any permitted access. The OVPIT shall, as soon as reasonably possible after such emergency, make a written finding verifying the existence and satisfaction of the foregoing conditions.
Any access permitted hereunder shall be the minimum access required in order to protect the University's Interests.
In all cases, technicians and administrators who receive requests from law enforcement or other outside agencies seeking access to computer accounts, files, or network traffic of an IT Resource user shall forward such requests to the appropriate and responsible Purdue department (which may include without limitation the Purdue Police Department, Public Information Officer, Office of the Dean of Students, or the Employee Relations/Human Resource Policy department as appropriate) in accordance with applicable Purdue policy. In all cases, technicians and administrators will obtain written documentation of any requests made before accessing or permitting access to an individual's electronic information resources.

RGS High Wycombe have won their second English rugby title in as many years after following up the National Schools crown they won at Wembley in August with Sevens glory at Rosslyn Park.
Their U13s beat 128 schools to win the National 7s on the 75th anniversary of the tournament.
They beat Christ's Hospital 24-7 to take victory at the end of another scintillating season.
Efan Morris, who received the trophy from Wasps scrum half Jack Moates, said: "It feels really good to win the tournament; we were hoping we would win but we never thought we would actually do it.
"We are all ecstatic to get the victory, we all fought to the end and didn't give up and managed to win.
"There were a few moments where I thought they might come back but we managed to see it through. It's been an amazing experience and I'm really proud of the team."
Both schools were unbeaten going into the final, but RGS were too strong as they ran in four tries to one to cap off a remarkable season for the U13s, who won all 13 of their 15-a-side games to top the Schools Rugby Performance League.
The build up to Rosslyn Park had been equally impressive, comfortably winning the Warwick and Solihull Sevens respectively and scoring over 600 points in the process.
However, their path to the final at Rosslyn Park was anything but straightforward.
In the last 32 they needed two tries in the final 90 seconds to beat St. Benedict's 29-28, and they were on the brink of defeat in their semi-final with Crypt Grammar School until another last-gasp score.
That levelled it up at 17-17, before scoring the decisive 'golden try' in extra-time.
Aaron Drewe and then Matvey Boguslvasky both scored in the first half of the final, but Christ's Hospital crossed themselves to make it 12-7 at the interval.
However, RGS stepped it up after half-time with further scores from Timmy Wraight and Morris completing the win.
Head coach Tom Hollyer said: "It was an unbelievable two days of rugby.
"The boys worked so hard and simply refused to give up. I couldn't be prouder to have coached this incredibly talented group of boys and they all thoroughly deserve this title."
U13 Sevens squad: Efan Morris, James Baldwin, Aaron Bello, Matvey Boguslavsky, Matt Bowen, Harry Bradshaw, Henry Chilcott, Aaron Drewe, Will Roberts, Roshan Russell, Oscar Thomas, Jack Wakely, Adam Whelan, Timmy Wraight.

DAISY Hill manager Craig Thomas believes Saturday's last-minute 4-3 defeat to leaders Nelson will give his side a huge confidence boost.
The New Sirs men were routed 8-0 by the big-spenders in the reverse North West Counties League Division One fixture, but were deservedly holding them 3-3 with seconds to go on Saturday.
The encouraging performance of the team that sit third bottom went unrewarded points-wise when the visitors grabbed the last-gasp winner, but Thomas says it could have a beneficial effect on his players.
"Considering we lost 8-0 last time we played them, and they are at the top and we are towards the bottom, it was a confidence shot for us," he said.
"We also had exactly the same team out as last time apart from the club's top scorer Daniel Gregory who came back and played his first game of the season on Saturday.
"He scored one and set one up so having him back, and one or two more to come back, should set us up well for the future."
Craig Flowers put Daisy ahead on four minutes before Nelson scored two goals in quick succession midway through the first half.
Tom Allcroft levelled on 71 minutes only for Nelson go ahead again a minute later.
Gregory equalised again five minutes from time and Daisy looked on course for a big point until the heartbreaking winner.
"We thought it was a foul in the box for the final goal which made it even more disappointing," said Thomas.
"But we can take a lot out of the game and it will give our lads a big boost confidence-wise.
"We have beaten Atherton Colls and gone close to Nelson who are the two best sides in the division.
"That tells us we can go head-to-head with anyone in the league on our day."

DARWINISM IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL: Harun Yahya is very powerful in Turkey...
On 25 September, 2009, Dagbladet, Norway's third-largest newspaper with a circulation of 150,000 and that has been published in the country ever since 1869, carried a wide-ranging report concerning Adnan Oktar and his Atlas of Creation. Some sections from the report concerning the global impact of Adnan Oktar's activities read as follows:
OPPOSITION TO THE TEACHING OF EVOLUTION IN CLASS HAS GROWN SIGNIFICANTLY, the professor of biology and Darwinist author Richard Dawkins said in an interview with The Times in August that this oppposition mainly comes from Muslim students... Islamic Creationism has grown very much stronger.
THE CENTER OF ISLAMIC CREATIONISM is the "Science Research Foundation" in Istanbul, under the leadership of Harun Yahya. Real name Adnan Oktar. Under his pen name he says that the theory of evolution seeks to destroy people's beliefs... He says that Darwin laid the groundwork for such people as Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot. He describes how racism, fascism and communism have their origins in Darwin's theory.
HARUN YAHYA is highly respected in much of the Islamic world and appears in the media from Bosnia to Egypt. He criticizes Western materialism on such channels as Al-Jazeera and Press TV, on which he frequently emphasizes how anti-Semitism and terror are the products of Darwinism.
In terms of their appearance, all animals, plants and insects living today are identical to their fossilized forebears... (Harun Yahya) believes that the theory of evolution is in crisis because it has no known scientific support.
The Atlas of Creation, one of his most showy works... has also come into Richard Dawkins's possession... Dawkins believes that the way so many people support Creationism in Britain stems from the influence of Muslims.
A CREATIONIST MOVEMENT CONDUCTED THROUGH PUBLICATION IN TURKEY: According to a string of evidence that Harun Yahya produces in his book Atlas of Creation, Darwin's theories are totally mistaken.
|EXACTLY THE SAME: According to the Turkish ceationist Harun Yahya, who compares fossils with present-day life forms, animals alive today are identical to how they were when first created. He suggests that this 54-37-million-year-old fish has remained completely unaltered. Reference: Atlas of Creation, BAV

Labor Day Weekend is Sonoma's Finest Food and Wine Weekend
A Very Special, Personal Weekend
Sonoma Wine Country Weekend (SWCW) is a special event for me, and Simple Hedonisms. Four years ago….hmm I thought it was five, have I REALLY only been here just over four years? People think I have lived here forever. Anyway, I digress.
Moving here on a complete whim in July 2009 in a whirl of tumult, I followed my passion and knowing almost no-one, and having no social media presence, I descended upon Sonoma County. I wasn't new to the county wine scene however. I have shared regularly, I was in love in the Sonoma, especially Russian River Valley, and visiting so regularly, it just made sense to move, and immediately it 'fit.' I immediately planted a tiny vineyard, assisted with harvest, and started Simple Hedonisms.
I am a huge fan and regular attendee of the Wine Road events, but the Saturday Taste of Sonoma was my first walk around tasting where on foot, you could experience dozens and dozens of wineries, sorted by AVA (region) and get a true taste of how diverse the county is. Sprinkle in amazing food, gorgeous scenery, good weather, and Sonoma County hospitality, and if you don't love it here, you should be in the next Grinch book.
Just prior to the event, I launched the blog after being urged by many for years to do so, and the Taste of Sonoma, was my first event covered. The article probably had 100 readers then if I was lucky, a far cry of the peak of my most active writing of 5,000+ a month. This 2013 event may also prove to be special and unique for me, but alas, that is for a future telling.
How passionate am I about this event? I am in the middle of one of the busiest weeks of my year, and I am taking the time to sit outside with my laptop, overlooking my vineyard project, glass in hand, and trying to 'write' as opposed to pasting the press release. We can sleep when we are dead.
Experience The Magic in Sonoma's Unique Event
Sonoma Wine Country Weekend is an annual event every Labor Day weekend and is Sonoma County's largest charity event and premier wine and food event, celebrating the region's incredible bounty of food, wine, and fun while raising much needed funds for Sonoma's local charities.
The event is actually entire weekend full of a la carte options, from Friday night dinners to Sunday BBQ, each detailed below.
1. My Favorite: The Saturday Taste of Sonoma at MacMurray Ranch
There are many wonderful tasting events in the county, and Bacchus be willing (and I also win the lottery) I'd attend them all.
However there are very few 'walk around' tastings, most involve going to each winery with a bracelet and a glass. These are wonderful because they provide the experience of the winery itself.
There is however a certain 'efficiency' (although I hesitate to use that word for such a relaxing, joyful environment.) of being able to walk around dozens of wineries gathered together from regions like Russian River, Dry Creek, Sonoma Valley etc and compare across the region, and then compare regions. There are 200 wineries in total pouring! I suggest you print the list and make a plan.
Come For The Food: If wine isn't your thing, the event hold's its own on the food and demonstrations alone. The who's who of our many talented chefs are present, with over 60 chefs offering their creations.
The event is brilliantly orchestrated and comes off like clockwork. You simply enjoy a decadent day.
Tickets are $115 for Visa Signature holders (odds are you have one, flip your card over) or $165 for general admission. This Saturday event sells out! (All Grand Reserve already are.) You have been advised.
2. Friday Night Sonoma Starlight at Francis Ford Coppola, with Food Icon Sondra Bernstein
Kick off Sonoma Wine Country Weekend poolside at the iconic Francis Ford Coppola Winery for an unforgettable evening of world-class wines, delicious cuisine, live music, and dancing to Bay Area favorites Pride & Joy — all set against a backdrop of shimmering stars in the Alexander Valley.
Guests will enjoy a bountiful array of local, seasonal cuisine poolside created by Sonoma Wine Country Weekend's 2013 Honorary Culinary Director, Sondra Bernstein and Chef John Toulze, proprietors of the girl & the fig. Over 20 local wineries will be on hand to share their Sonoma County wines, pairing wines with incredible local fare. Info and Tickets here.
3. Friday Winemaker Lunches and Dinners
Prefer something more intimate? Enjoy a special afternoon or evening of wine and food. Many of these are already sold out, as seating is limited to each. Remaining winemaker lunches include wonderful venues like Davis Family Vineyards, Lynmar Estate, Landmark, and others. See the full list, descriptions and tickets here.
Only a handful of the Winemaker dinners remain, in various parts of the county, including a few seats at places like Sonoma Cutrer, Longboard, Muscardini and a few others. I attended one of these last year, and it was buy viagra free shipping a highly personable, memorable experience. See the full list, descriptions and tickets here.
4. Sunday BBQ
Three wineries are offering a Sunday BBQ and wine, a perfect finish to the weekend. Since there are only three, these shouldn't last long either. See the full list, descriptions, and tickets here.
5. Sunday Harvest Wine Auction
For you high rollers, this is an amazing, first class experience of food, wine, and entertainment, all casual but classy Sonoma style. I was fortunate enough to be invited to one of the limited seats once.
The Sonoma Harvest Wine Auction is Sonoma County's largest and fun, fundraising event, bringing together the wine community and caring donors to raise essential funds that make our world-class wine region a better place by supporting our kids and our community. Not all lots are expensive, I 'bought' a lot that was simply a donation to a fund that assists our migrant grape pickers.
Immerse yourself in the intrigue of Brazil at the 21st Annual Sonoma Harvest Wine Auction, Sonoma Samba, sponsored by TricorBraun WinePak. The Grand Lawn of Chateau St. Jean will be transformed into a Pan-Latin Celebration. The winery skits, usually in theme, are quite comical. (I will forever carry the memories of the Benziger brothers in bikinis for a beach theme.)
Your ticket not only offers you passage into the Wine Spectator Auction Tent, but it also allows you to mingle with Sonoma's finest winemakers, as each table will be presided over by a local Winemaker or Grower who will share not only their finest wines, but great stories, too! Over 70% of the tables are already sold out.
Follow The Fun On Twitter
This event is attended by people all over the country, all here to experience the magic of Sonoma. You can follow some of the fun on Twitter via hashtag #SWCW as well as their Facebook Page. However, I suggest you come experience it in person. I will be.

It's been a busy week with early starts and big photo shoots and I've been carrying lots of props back and forth - packing, unpacking and packing again. At the end of the day I've felt happy and content, but in desperate need of a hot shower, a big cup of tea and something sweet. My usual pick for a sweet treat would be a piece of really dark chocolate, but these quick and easy oven baked grapefruit are definitely a good alternative, too. If you have the time in the morning, you could even have them as breakfast with some thick yoghurt. Or, try with some good vanilla bean ice cream as an indulgent dessert.
I love the coconutty crumble topping - rolled oats, organic coconut sugar and the most amazing coconut oil I bought from the Organic expo just a couple of weeks a go. I'm ready to slip on my comfy clothes, grab one of these grapefruit and just munch away!
Baked grapefruit with coconutty crumble
(serves 2)
1 grapefruit, cut in half
2 tablespoons organic unstabilised oats
1 tablespoon organic coconut sugar
1 tablespoon organic coconut oil (not liquid)
1. Preheat oven to 200C.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the oats, sugar and coconut oil. Rub the mixture with your fingers until crumbly.
3. Place the grapefruit halves into an oven-proof dish, spread the coconutty crumble on top and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.

According to information published by Jim Garamone on the U.S. Department of Defense www.defendamerica.mil web site on 4 October, 2001, Muslims are to be found in all spheres in the USA, including the military.
Islam remains the fastest-growing religion in the United States of America. There are between 5 and 7 million Muslims in America, 10-20,000 of whom are serving in the military.
Abdul-Rasheed Muhammad is a Muslim chaplain in the army who works at the Walter Reed Military Hospital in Washington. Muhammad describes how Allah creates us all, with no distinction between Muslims and Christians.
Another Muslim in the military is Marine Corps Captain Aisha Bakkar-Poe, who condemns acts of terror for religious ends and says that terrorists do not read the Qur'an we read. "… Islam does not believe in killing innocent men, women and children," she says.
Another Muslim in the military who converted in 1987 is Army Captain Arneshuia Balial, who says that religion is actually a way of life.
It is of course very pleasing that so many people have become properly acquainted with and accepted Islam. Terror can only be eradicated if believers love and support one another and show the way to acquire moral virtues to the world. Allah reveals in a verse from the Qur'an that:
Those who don't believe are the friends and protectors of one another. If you do not act in this way there will be turmoil in the land and great corruption. (Surat al-Anfal, 73)

Every time I'm discussing the VXLAN technology with a fellow networking engineer, I inevitably get the question "how will I connect this to the outside world?" Let's assume you want to build pretty typical 3-tier application architecture (next diagram) using VXLAN-based virtual subnets and you already have firewalls and load balancers – can you use them?
The product information in this blog post is outdated - Arista, Brocade, Cisco, Dell, F5, HP and Juniper are all shipping hardware VXLAN gateways (this post has more up-to-date information). The concepts explained in the following text are still valid; however, I would encourage you to read other VXLAN-related posts on this web site or watch the VXLAN webinar to get a more recent picture.
The only product supporting VXLAN Tunnel End Point (VTEP) in the near future is the Nexus 1000V virtual switch; the only devices you can connect to a VXLAN segment are thus Ethernet interface cards in virtual machines. If you want to use a router, firewall or load balancer (sometimes lovingly called application delivery controller) between two VXLAN segments or between a VXLAN segment and the outside world (for example, a VLAN), you have to use a VM version of the layer-3 device. That's not necessarily a good idea; virtual networking appliances have numerous performance drawbacks and consume way more CPU cycles than needed ... but if you're a cloud provider billing your customers by VM instances or CPU cycles, you might not care too much.
The virtual networking appliances also introduce extra hops and unpredictable traffic flows into your network, as they can freely move around the data center at the whim of workload balancers like VMware's DRS. A clean network design (left) is thus quickly morphed into a total spaghetti mess (right):
Cisco doesn't have any L3 VM-based product, and the only thing you can get from VMware is vShield Edge – a dumbed down Linux with a fancy GUI. If you're absolutely keen on deploying VXLAN, that shouldn't stop you; there are numerous VM-based products, including BIG-IP load balancer from F5 and Vyatta's routers. Worst case, you can turn a standard Linux VM into a usable router, firewall or NAT device by removing less functionality from it than VMware did. Not that I would necessarily like doing that, but it's one of the few options we have at the moment.
Next steps?
Someone will have to implement VXLAN on physical devices sooner or later; running networking functions in VMs is simply too slow and too expensive. While I don't have any firm information (not even roadmaps), do keep in mind Ken Duda's enthusiasm during the VXLAN Packet Pushers podcast (and remember that both Arista and Broadcom appear in the author list of VXLAN and NVGRE drafts).
Furthermore, VXLAN encapsulation format is actually a subset of OTV encapsulation, as Omar Sultan pointed out in his VXLAN Deep Dive blog post, which means that Cisco already has the hardware necessary to terminate VXLAN segments in Nexus 7000.
How could you do it?
Layer-3 termination of VXLAN segments is actually pretty easy (from the architectural and control plane perspective):
- VMs attached to a VXLAN segment are configured with the default gateway's IP address (intra-VXLAN subnet logical IP address of the physical termination device);
- A VM sending an IP packet to an off-subnet destination has to send it to the default gateway's IP address and performs an ARP request;
- One or more layer-3 VXLAN termination devices respond to the ARP request sent in the VXLAN encapsulation and the Nexus 1000V switch in the hypervisor running the VM remembers RouterVXLANMAC-to-RouterPhysicalIP address mapping;
- When the VM sends an IP packet to the default gateway's MAC address, the Nexus 1000V switch forwards the IP-in-MAC frame to the nearest RouterPhysicalIP address.
No broadcast or flooding is involved in the layer-3 termination, so you could easily use the same physical IP address and the same VXLAN MAC address on multiple routers (anycast) and achieve instant redundancy without first hop redundancy protocols like HSRP or VRRP.
Layer-2 extension of VXLAN segments into VLANs (that you might need to connect VXLAN-based hosts to an external firewall) is a bit tougher. As you're bridging between VXLAN and an 802.1Q VLAN, you have to ensure that you don't create a forwarding loop.
You could configure the VXLAN layer-2 extension (bridging) on multiple physical switches and run STP over VXLAN ... but I hope we'll never see that implemented. It would be way better to use IP functionality to select the VXLAN-to-VLAN forwarder. You could, for example, run VRRP between redundant VXLAN-to-VLAN bridges and use VRRP IP address as the VXLAN physical IP address of the bridge (all off-VXLAN MAC addresses would appear as being reachable via that IP address to other VTEPs). The VRRP functionality would also control the VXLAN-to-VLAN forwarding – only the active VRRP gateway would perform the L2 forwarding. You could still use a minimal subset of STP to prevent forwarding loops, but I wouldn't use it as the main convergence mechanism.
VXLAN is a great concept that gives you clean separation between virtual networks and physical IP-based transport infrastructure, but we need VXLAN termination in physical devices (switches, potentially also firewalls and load balancers) before we can start considering large-scale deployments. Till then, it will remain an interesting proof-of-concept tool or a niche product used by infrastructure cloud providers.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas - A gunman who fired numerous shots at officers and pedestrians near the Texas A&M University campus, killing two and wounding several others before he was killed, was armed with several weapons, College Station police said Tuesday.
The deadly shootout erupted Monday in the 200 block of Fidelity shortly after noon, about two blocks from the campus.
According to College Station police, Brazos County Precinct 1 Constable Brian Bachmann, 41, went to the home of Thomas Alton Caffall, 35, to serve forcible entry detainer, the last step in an eviction proceeding, and was shot. Police said they then received 911 calls about a shooting. Bachmann did not radio in for help, officials said.
Investigators said Caffall opened fire on Bachmann.
"From our investigation, Bachmann arrived on the scene shortly after noon. Either upon his approach to the house or shortly thereafter, it appears he was shot by the suspect in the front yard of that residence. Caffall then started to shoot at other victims in the area and College Station police officers as they approached the scene," College Station Police Chief Jeff Capps said.
Officers responding to the reports of an officer down saw Bachmann wounded on the ground in the front yard, then got into what police described as an extended shootout with Caffall.
"Upon their initial arrival, they started taking gunfire. They returned gunfire and that went on for several minutes, back and forth, and then officers were able to shoot the suspect," Capps said. "During the incident, Caffall fired multiple rounds. Investigators have recovered some long guns and pistols from his residence that were used in the assault."
Bachmann and Caffall were pronounced dead at a hospital.
Chris Northcliff, 51, a civilian from College Station, was the third person killed in the shootings at the off-campus home near the university's football stadium.
Three other law enforcement officers and Barbara Holdsworth, 51, of Houston, were wounded, College Station Assistant Police Chief Scott McCollum said.
Officer Justin Oehlke was wounded in the calf, police said. Two other officers -- Brad Smith and Phil Dorsett -- were treated for "shrapnel injuries" and released.
Holdsworth was in serious condition after undergoing surgery. Friends said the mother was helping her daughter move when the shooting started.
Police spokeswoman Rhonda Seaton said Northcliff and Holdsworth were outside when they were shot.
Caffall had no prior police record in College Station, authorities said. Officials did not say if Caffall had permits for his guns.
Investigators said they do not know if Bachmann had any warning that Caffall was armed. Police would not release if Bachmann was wearing a bulletproof vest.
"(Bachmann) was a pillar in this community," College Station Police Department Assistant Chief Scott McCollum said. "It's sad and tragic that we lost him today."
The entire gunfire exchange between Caffall and officers lasted about 30 minutes, detectives said.
"When I heard the first shots going out, I ducked down under my truck, in the floorboards, and I started counting shots," witness Will Hatheway said. "I wanted to make sure how many shots were fired because I know that detail is always required, and I wanted to help out the police."
Hatheway said he heard 30 shots that were fired from what sounded like a semiautomatic weapon.
Caffall's sister said Monday night the family was "shocked" by the violence.
"Our hearts and prayers go out to the families and this is just a senseless tragedy," said Courtney Clark, Caffall's sister, reached Monday evening at her mother's home in Navasota, about 20 miles to the south. "We are just distraught by the havoc that he has caused."
She declined additional comment.
College Station police said they did not have any past trouble with Caffall.
A Code Maroon was issued at Texas A&M after the shooting. Police urged people to stay away from the area as they investigated four scenes hours after the shooting. Most of the university's 50,000 students were not on the campus about 90 miles northwest of Houston because the fall semester doesn't start until Aug. 27, university spokeswoman Sherylon Carroll said.
Police started to slowly reduce the size of their crime scene investigation allowing some residents to go home Tuesday night.
"I've not been allowed to come in here since yesterday," said Jimmie Vernon.
She was away from her home for about 30 hours. She lives one house away from where Caffall lived. She was briefly allowed to come home, with a police escort and pick up her cat.
"I was out of town this past weekend and I had planned to get back here at 12:15. I was delayed. I didn't get back until 1:30. So, I would have been right in my driveway here at 12:15 and one house over is where the fire fight was. I'm very glad that I was delayed."
Other residents briefly returned home Tuesday night, with a police escort, gathered belongings and left as officers continued their investigation.
Bachmann worked more than 19 years in law enforcement, according to the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education. He started out with the Hempstead Police Department before spending most of his career with the Brazos County Sheriff's Office. He had been a constable since January 2011, after winning election to the post the prior November.
In a February 2010 candidate profile in the Bryan-College Station Eagle, the married father of two said he wanted to bring "constables back to the community" by actively patrolling neighborhoods to discourage crime.
Constables are law enforcement officers similar to sheriff's deputies who are elected to serve in specific county precincts. They primarily serve warrants and official paperwork or act as courtroom bailiffs.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, an A&M alumnus, said at an event in Florida that his "prayers are with any of those that have been injured." A&M President R. Bowen Loftin issued a statement calling Monday a "sad day in the Bryan-College Station community."

THE development of a £15m town centre car park is on track.
Swindon Council gave the go-ahead last October to buy the land, which is part of the town's regeneration plans.
The 850-space car park is being built on the site of the former police station in Islington Street and is already beginning to tower above the Magistrates Court next door.
Councillors believe it will be a moneyspinner in less than 10 years and in the longer term, the council would be looking to reduce the number of existing, outdated car parks, replacing them with high-quality facilities within future regeneration schemes.
The project, which is part of the Union Square development and is being overseen by Forward Swindon, is said to be running on schedule and could be completed by the end of the summer.
A spokesman for the Forward Swindon said: "The work is going well and will be nearing completion around the end of the summer – assuming we don't have the same kind of weather as last year."
Forward Swindon has played a major role in regenerating Swindon's town centre and aim to create a vibrant environment that attracts visitors, draws businesses and creates employment.
The Canal Walk and Regent Street projects have regenerated major areas of Swindon's shopping centre.
Forward Swindon were behind the regeneration project of Swindon's station forecourt last year which was delivered two months late as a result of wet weather last summer.

Everyone should see these movies once, no bs or filler, just quality vids: Pump! (young Occy killing it), Green Iguana (more Occy), Searching for Tom Curren, and Bustin Down the Door (although more commentary than some may want), and Seedling. I think they all put newer vids to shame, maybe minus Thicker than Water.
Like others have said, I was not that impressed with Dark Fall either.
Due East!! is a classic and so is M.I.A. for all the spongers out there
dark fall for sure. the winter part is one of the best video parts i have ever seen. Deans part with Bruce Springsteen's Atlantic City in the background gives me goosebumps. I pop Dark Fall in whenever i get homesick at school.
I also kinda liked Modern Collective. the intro is kinda drawn out and lame but once you get past that i like it.
+ 1 on the Decline. Good surfing. Good soundtrack. Different locations. Some classic funny lines from pros ie. "I'm a pretty good surfer but a very good drinker." or "I only get to go on the cheap trips... like down to the liquor store". Makes surfing look fun.
5'5 the original awesome. Made me wanna get a fish and chop hop when I was in high school. Redux. Defines what surfing is tomorrow. fishy, fin-less, quad, retro
dark fall is nice every once in a while, i really liked esm always right. its got tons of footage in it too (including nj)
cant believe noone's mention soul surfer yet...sooo gnarly
seriously though Rip Curl's 'Medication' with Taylor Knox and Mick Fanning is one of my all time favorites, a little old school but it's quality. Dark Fall is by far the best East Coast movie I've seen to date. Red Bull's 'Who Is J.O.B.' has some sick Hawaiian barrels in it and awesome camera angles, it kind of missed the boat on the down to earth essence of surfing though
I like the woodshed films stuff, except when they get kooky. Like the ladder stuff. Single fin yellow was a cool concept.

Topic: haelan
We have a doctor involved in alternative medicine who is really pushing Joe to try Haelan.. It is a soy based product, expensive and supposedly doesn't taste very good. Has anyone tried it and had any success? Joe is jut finishing his second 6 weeks of Insulin Potentiation Therapy and is pretty wiped out as far as blood counts but no trouble with the chemo in the smaller doses he has received. He has his second Pet scan on thursday so we will see what progress we have made. Then we will go home and only have prayer and supplements and diet to fight this thing. If any one has any experience I would be glad to hear of it. Mary Anne

I don't watch reality shows, for the most part, and I haven't watched The Learning Channel's new reality offering called All-American Muslim. From what I understand, after the first couple of episodes, the show is not getting good reviews.
But it is getting a lot of attention, thanks in large part to the Florida Family Association's campaign to get advertisers to pull existing ads and not agree to advertise on the show in the future. Of course, FFA's campaign has nothing to do with the quality of the program, and everything to do with David Caton's anti-Muslim bigotry.
Caton, who is executive director — and the only staff member — for FFA, claims All-American Muslim is "propaganda clearly designed to counter legitimate and present-day concerns about many Muslims who are advancing Islamic fundamentalism and Sharia law. The show profiles only Muslims that appear to be ordinary folks while excluding many Islamic believers whose agenda poses a clear and present danger to liberties and traditional values that the majority of Americans cherish."
TLC's website for All-American Muslim explains that the show "takes a look at life in Dearborn, Michigan — home to the largest mosque in the United States — through the lens of five Muslim American families." One of the men on the show, Mike Jaafar, is a deputy chief sheriff, something Caton apparently takes great exception to. On the FFA website, Caton says, "One of the most troubling scenes occurred at the introduction of the program when a Muslim police officer stated 'I really am American. No ifs and or buts about it.'"
Personally, I don't see anything particularly troubling about a deputy chief sheriff making such a declaration, but Caton says Jaafar's statement is "damage control for the Dearborn Police who have arrested numerous Christians including several former Muslims for peacefully preaching Christianity."
Anyway, Caton claims FFA's efforts have convinced Lowe's and Kayak.com to pull their advertising from the TLC program. I don't know about Lowe's, but Robert Birge, chief marketing officer for Kayak.com, said his company's decision regarding advertising on the program had nothing to do with Caton and the FFA; he said the company would no longer advertise on the program because All-American Muslim "sucked." He also said TLC had misled his company about the content of the program, and that Kayak.com had not actually pulled advertising but instead had decided not to renew advertising on the program, according to this report by Reuters.
So by now you may be wondering why an LGBT news site is reporting on a boycott of a show about Muslims. I mean, the Islamic faith is not known for its progressive stance on LGBT issues.
The reason, actually, is simple: Bigotry is bigotry is bigotry. The right-winger that is so up in arms about a TV program possibly showing Muslim people in a positive light is the same right-winger who made a name for himself fighting LGBT rights.
