Florida baseball drops opener to Auburn

On a night when Florida needed to be at its best, it turned in one of its worst performances.
Saturday's game
Who: Auburn (30-19, 10-15 SEC) at Florida (27-24, 12-13)
When: 7 p.m.
Where: McKethan Stadium
Gainesville-area radio: 103.7 FM
Florida's pitchers walked six batters and allowed 10 hits, and the Gators committed base-running gaffes and only scored in one inning.
As a result, Florida was handled by Auburn 7-4 Friday night at McKethan Stadium.
Auburn scored three runs in the fourth and three more in the fifth, and Florida, which honored its two seniors before the game, couldn't get anything going against Auburn's soft-throwing lefty Connor Kendrick (4-3) until the seventh.
The Gators scored four runs in the inning, three of them unearned, but that was it for the game.
Florida drops to 27-24 overall and 12-13 in the SEC. Auburn is 30-19 and 10-15 in SEC games. Florida has five regular-season games left to impress the NCAA selection committee, plus the SEC Tournament.
The Gators have now lost five straight SEC games.
"They definitely hit harder (this time of year)," said Florida catcher Taylor Gushue, "because our goal is to get into the postseason."
Florida did itself no favors with its base-running in the first three innings. Zack Powers reached on a strikeout that was a wild pitch in the second but was picked off first.
In the third, Josh Tobias led off with a double but was thrown out when he was caught off second on a grounder to short by Harrison Bader.
Bader went to second one batter later but was thrown out easily at the plate when he tried to score on Richie Martin's single to left.
"Base-running mistakes kill momentum," Gushue said. "The morale of the team goes down. They can't happen."
Florida starter Jonathon Crawford got out of a sticky situation in the second and appeared to be in good shape in the fourth when he got a double-play grounder from Patrick Savage. But after a single and a walk, Crawford left a pitch up to Auburn's Ryan Tella, who hit a towering three-run homer to right.
It was only Tella's second homer of the year and gave Auburn a 3-0 lead.
It was in keeping with the season for Crawford, considered the ace of UF's staff and its only guaranteed weekend starter. At times, he has looked unhittable, but there always seems to be one inning when he struggles to locate his pitches. The loss dropped the junior's record this season to 3-6, and his ERA is now 4.28.
"He was sharp early, he started strong," said Gushue, the Florida catcher. "But then he got un-aggressive and started feeling for it. He didn't have his best stuff."
Crawford walked the leadoff batter in the fifth and was replaced by Parker Danciu, who retired one batter before Aaron Rhodes came in to pitch. Rhodes walked a batter, got a groundout and then allowed an opposite-field double to Dan Glevenyak to make it 5-0.
Jordan Ebert's RBI single gave Auburn its sixth run.
A two-base error on a grounder to short gave Florida life in the seventh. Bader's RBI single scored Florida's first run and Martin's bases-loaded walk scored another. A sacrifice fly by Casey Turgeon and an infield single by Gushue plated two more.
But Terrance Dedrick came in to strike out Justin Shafer to end the inning. He finished the game by throwing two more hitless innings.
"It was a tough game," said senior Vickash Ramjit. "We battled back, but it just wasn't our day. The walks hurt, but we still have to score runs."
Ebert hit a solo homer in the ninth, his third of the season, to provide the final margin.
The teams play again tonight at 7.

In a caveman's kitchen, as reported in Nature News and ScienceNOW, 18 Oct 2010. A group of researchers from Italy, Russia and Czech Republic have examined stone grinding tools from Stone Age archaeological sites in Italy and Eastern Europe, and found starch grains, indicating that early humans were processing plant foods and cooking with grains. The starch grains were from the root of a species of cattail and the grains of a grass called Brachypodium. Whilst not producing flour as we know it today, the ground roots and grains could be used to make flatbreads or thicken soups. The researchers calculated that once ground and cooked, the cattail grains contain nearly as much energy as farmed cereals.
These finds challenge the traditional view of stone age "man the hunter" living on a diet of meat supplemented by unprocessed plant foods, such as fruits and tubers. This "meat-centric" picture has been built up due to durable evidence being available in the form of stone blades and bones bearing marks of butchering. Plant remains don't last as long as bones, and it was suspected archaeologists probably destroyed the more fragile plant evidence by washing artefacts, so the European research team studied unwashed artefacts. Ofer Bar-Yosef, an archaeologist at Harvard University and Stone age expert, said it was not a shock that humans from 30,000 years ago ground plants, rather than just eating raw greens. He commented: "I bet you that even Neanderthals had much more complex food-preparation techniques when it comes to plants."
Editorial Comment: It is no surprise to us that "stone age" man ground grains and other plant material and ate processed plant based food, when you consider the Biblical history of human diets. In the beginning God told man to eat plants. After the Fall of Man (Genesis 3), God sent Adam and Eve out of their fruitful garden to "till the ground" i.e. grow crops to obtain their food. Therefore the earliest humans were gardeners and farmers. Hunter-gatherers came later. Furthermore man was created as fully intelligent humans, able to make and work with sophisticated tools. After mankind was dispersed at the Tower of Babel, many groups of people had to scratch out a living in new environments, and a lot of knowledge of farming and tool making was lost. However, people remembered that grains and roots were nutritious if ground and cooked, and used whatever plants were available. (Ref. technology, nutrition, diets)

How about some different potato recipes to go along with your fall meals? Potatoes are so easy to fix and really economical.
Baked Potatoes with Bacon Butter
6 slices bacon
4 large russet potatoes, scrubbed and dried
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped chives, about 10 chives
3/4 teaspoon dry mustard
Preheat oven to 400°. In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp; about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel lined plate and set aside. Reserve 2 teaspoons bacon fat. Let cool. Pierce potatoes several times with a fork. Using your hands, rub potatoes with reserved bacon fat. Place directly on oven rack and bake until tender when tested with a fork, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile crumble reserved bacon. In a small bowl, combine with butter, chives and dry mustard. Then turn out onto a 3-by-12-inch piece of plastic wrap, roll into a 1 inch thick log and twist ends to seal. Refrigerate until firm. To serve break or cut open potatoes and fluff using a fork. Top each with a dollop of bacon butter.
Cheesy Potato Casserole
1 bag Ore-Ida country style hash browns
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 cups sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups corn flakes, crushed
3 green onion tops and most of the green part, chopped
1/4 cup butter, melted
Mix soup, sour cream, salt, pepper, green onions and cheese in a large mixing bowl. Add hash browns and stir to combine. Place in greased 13-by-9-inch pan. Top with butter and cornflakes mixed together. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes until bubbly around the edges.
Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes
2 medium sweet potatoes
2 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Scrub and pierce potatoes; place on a microwave safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 12 to 14 minutes or until tender turning once. When cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and discard. Scoop out pulp leaving a thin shell. In a large bowl, mash the pulp. Add the cream cheese, sour cream, butter and salt. Mix well. Spoon into the potato shells. Place on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 12 to 15 minutes or until heated through and topping is golden brown.
Roasted Sweet Potato Fries
2 medium sweet potatoes
2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 450°. Leaving sweet potatoes unpeeled, scrub and slice into 10 thick wedges each. Place potatoes and olive oil in a plastic zippered bag, close and toss to coat. Arrange slices, not touching on an oiled baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes, turn, and continue to bake 15 more minutes or until they are golden and crisp. Sprinkle with the coarse salt and pepper to taste. Serves 4. About 20 large fries.
Russian Potatoes
6 cups chopped sweet onions
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup plus 1/2 cup butter, cubed, divided
1 tablespoon sugar
4 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 14 1/2-ounce cans chicken broth
3 cups sour cream, divided
1 cup heavy whipping cream
4 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon dill weed
In a large skillet, saute onions in oil and 1/3 cup butter until softened. Stir in sugar. Reduce heat to medium low, cook, stirring occasionally for 40 minutes or until deep golden brown. Meanwhile, place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender. Drain potatoes, transfer to a large bowl. Add 1 cup sour cream, the cream, eggs, dill and remaining butter. Beat until mashed. Spread half of potatoes into a greased 13-by-9-inch baking dish, layer with onions and remaining potatoes. Gently spread remaining sour cream over the top. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30 to 35 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°. Serves 12.
Waffle House Hash Browns
4 cups peeled and shredded potatoes
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup ice
Vegetable oil for frying
Place prepared potatoes in a 2-quart bowl and add salt. Add ice and pour enough water to cover potatoes. Stir to mix salt and ice in the potatoes. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Place shredded potatoes in a colander, rinse with cool tap water and drain completely. At this point you can place potatoes back in the refrigerator, covered, until ready to fry. The uncooked potatoes will keep up to 5 hours. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add enough vegetable oil to lightly cover bottom. When skillet is hot and oil has been heated, place two cups of drained shredded potatoes in skillet. Fry until crisp, shaping with a spatula. Fry about 12 to 15 minutes, without turning. Time depends on the temperature and size of the shredded hash browns. When potatoes are golden, flip over carefully and fry tops of potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes. Do not cover hash browns while frying or stir through them.
Waffle House Hash Browns Scattered all the Way
1 slice American cheese (covered)
1/4 cup diced yellow onion (smothered)
Sliced jalapeno peppers to taste (peppered)
1/4 cup diced fresh tomatoes (diced)
1/4 cup mushrooms (capped)
1/3 cup diced lean ham (chunked)
1/3 cup chili with beans, heated
1 serving Waffle House Hash Browns
Prepare Waffle House Hash Browns as directed. Leave them in the skillet and add cheese, onion, jalapeno peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms and ham. When done, add chili on top of all.
* On Saturday nights after the Midnight Jamboree, we'd always stop for these. My favorite way was scattered, smothered and covered, which was the hash browns, onions and slice of cheese. I can still taste them. Yummy!
Scalloped Russet and Sweet Potatoes
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon butter, softened
1 large onion, peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
2 cups milk
1/4 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
5 medium russet potatoes
1 medium sweet potato
Fresh whole nutmeg
Preheat oven to 350°. Aggressively rub inside of 2 1/2- to 3-quart gratin dish with garlic clove, coat with the 1 tablespoon butter. Set aside. With a mandoline or very sharp knife slice onion about 1/16-inch thick. In skillet, over low heat, cook onion in olive oil until tender, sprinkling well with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, stir in thyme leaves. Set aside. In small saucepan heat milk and cream just until simmering. In medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour until combined. Remove from heat and whisk in hot milk and cream, a little at a time, until incorporated. Return to heat, bring to a gentle boil. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened. Peel all potatoes. With a mandoline or very sharp knife, slice potatoes about 1/16-inch thick. Layer one third of russet and sweet potato slices in prepared dish. Season with salt pepper and two or three light gratings of nutmeg. Scatter about one-third of the onions on top of potatoes. Spoon a one-third of cream mixture on potatoes. Create two more layers with remaining potatoes, onions, seasonings and cream mixture, finishing with cream mixture on top. Bake, uncovered, 45 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 425°. Bake 10 to 15 minutes more or until bubbly, golden crusty brown and potatoes are tender when pierced with a wooden pick. Remove from oven. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
Potato Pancake
2 1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter
4 cups frozen hash browns (1 pound), thawed
Coarse salt
Ground pepper
2 1/2 teaspoons butter
In an 8-inch nonstick skillet, melt unsalted butter over medium high heat. Add hash browns and press evenly into skillet with a rubber spatula. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Cook, pressing on potatoes and tucking in edges occasionally with spatula, until crisp and deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Adjust heat if necessary to prevent cake from over browning. Flip pancake and repeat, adding 2 1/2 teaspoons to butter to skillet. To serve, cut pancake into quarters. Serves 4.

HOUSTON - What do you get when you combine a chopstick and a fork?
The chork is the brainchild of a Salt Lake City based company called Brown Innovation Group, Incorporated or B.I.G. Inc.
The group was founded in March 2008 and is a concept development and marketing company specializing in bringing new products and technology to market.
You can get 12 sets of chorks for $3.99 or 24 for $5.99. They come in black and red and are made of food grade high-impact polystyrene.
The company's mission statement is to think BIG, outside the box of modern business to develop solutions and ideas that provide cost effective, innovative products capable of simplifying daily tasks.
We'll have to wait and see if the chork catches on and become as common as the spork (the half-spoon, half-fork).

I'm trying to get my image to sit next to an
I floated the in which my image sits in (will apply some JavaScript to it later), but for the life of me I cannot get it to have a space of around 10 or 12px next to the H3 that it sits next to.
I can do it if I apply a margin-right of 130px or so, HOWEVER there are some H3 elements that will not be the same length everytime. I thought I could get the just have an auto width so it would stop whenever the text would stop (like my and elements seem to be doing.), but it seems to be taking up the whole line. So my problem will appear (as you can see) if I apply the margin-right:130px or more because there are subsequent elements that will be longer than "Complexity Factors".
I wonder if I should sit my elements in that section inside of a div perhaps and set dimensions on that div? In any case, here is my CSS (which with positioning, I am kind of shaky with, admittedly)
here is the page in question:
here is my code:
.expandingBtn img {
and my markup:
 Complexity Factors

Hi, abtecas, welcome to the forums.
Of course, I can't tell which image on the live page you are having a problem with
Please read our posting guidelineshttp://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?1041498-Forum-Posting-Basicsand post a cut-down working example page that demonstrates the problem so we can open it on our computers and hopefully provide an answer for you.
sorry. The section is on the lower right where it says "Complexity factors" and there is a circle with a plus sign. (I cant take screen shot)now that is how it should display, but when I put that styling to other pages, it doesn't work.
If I could just get that H3 to not take the max of the DIV, I would be fine. I'm stuck with using the H3, according to the mockup, unfortunately.
The
 is set to {display:inline-block}, therefore it does not expand to the width of the column. I gather that this is the desired behavior.
This page apparent does not demonstrate the "broken" behavior, so I cannot tell why this style does not transfer to another page. I will guess that there is another style in the cascade that overrides the inline-block, or maybe inline-block is not being applied on the other pages.
If you read the guidelines, you will understand that you are asking us to "guess" the solution to a problem that we cannot see. Personally, I do not care to use my time "guessing". We need to be able to see the broken behavior to determine what is not working and why.
sorry. trying to explain the best I can..starting to sound like the folks at stack overflow.
I'll figure it out
I think your explanation is fine, but we need to see an example where the code is not working so we can diagnose the problem.
one sec, please. I'm working it out. But on some pages it still does not work, with the exact same code. I will provide momentarily if I still can't get it. Thanks
it works fine on this page: http://scope-stage.scholastic.com/issues/090113/Narrative-Nonfictioncode is:
.mainRight h3 { display: inline-block;}.expandingBtn { display: inline-block; float: none;}
and markup is

 See how this text will challenge your students.

 Purpose

 The article has a clear purpose—to inform readers about how a brave teenager stood up to the Taliban—as well as an implicit purpose—to show how just getting an education is difficult for many young people around the world.

 Knowledge Demands

 Comprehension will be aided by knowledge of current world events and geography. The major topics (free speech, the Taliban, terrorism, girls' education worldwide, fighting oppression) will be unfamiliar to many students.

 Language Conventionality and Clarity:

 Vocabulary: Many higher academic vocabulary words (e.g., oppressive, pseudonym, unwittingly)

 Figurative language: Includes personification ("fear was her constant companion") and metaphor (Malala's voice is likened to a weapon)

 Structure

 A nonlinear structure that starts in 2012 then goes back to 2007 and then forward to 2013. Includes narrative and informational passages.

also on the page: http://scope-stage.scholastic.com/issues/090113/you-write-itthe buttons float fine, but the

I am (forced) to use ezPublisher CMS to edit these files, and every so often I also see weird tags put in like:

which I have no clue how they get there but they don't really seem to cause any problem, but why are they there (side point perhaps)
In the style block that you are inserting in the middle of the page (!!!) you have a missing bracket which is corrupting the rest of the rules.
.essentialQuestions {
background-image: url(/resource/uploads_scope/issues/090113/090113_narrativeNonfiction_essentialQuestions.png) no-repeat;
.essentialQuestions-words {
It should look like this:
.essentialQuestions {
background-image: url(/resource/uploads_scope/issues/090113/090113_narrativeNonfiction_essentialQuestions.png) no-repeat;
[B]}/* closing bracket here */[/B]
.essentialQuestions-words {
On some pages the bracket is present which is why it works on some pages.
yes I have to do the style in the middle of the page (I'm working with an editor so that's why they go there until I migrate them to the main style sheet ), but I thought I fixed that problem a few days ago since that is an old part..but thanks for pointing it out.
Yes, it's that bracket that is causing the problems you are experiencing because the missing bracket corrupts the rules that follow and the styles are being missed. One missing bracket can corrupt a whole stylesheet depending where it is.
Yes, I need to slow down in my coding and just be a tad bit more detail-oriented. Happens to the best of us. I'm willing to bet that that is what's causing those weird tags to show up in EZpublisher editing windows as well. Thanks again though.Cheers

Kate Gosselin Got a Real Job!
It's true: Kate Gosselin finally buckled down and got a (non-TV) job! Woo hoo!
-Lucia Peters
Big news, Bettys: KATE GOSSELIN GOT A JOB. And it's not in TV. Gasp! A "real" job? Surely not!
But yes: According to E!, Access Hollywood, the Daily Mail, and pretty much every other entertainment news source out there, the former Kate Plus 8 star has gotten a job, and guess what? She's a blogger now! Kate has signed on to write for the website CouponCabin.com. In her weekly features, she'll be offering money-saving advice on such topics as stretching budgets for large family, holiday shopping, gift ideas, and more. Said Kate in CouponCabin's official release, "No matter what your financial situation is, there's no reason not to use coupons. It's like free money in your pocket!"
Kate's first post will appear on November 22, two days before Thanksgiving. The topic? How to handle Black Friday, of course. As fellow bloggers, we here at BettyConfidential welcome you to the ranks, Kate. Do us proud.
Read 'Twilight' Stars to Be Immortalized at Grauman's Chinese Theatre TODAY!
You know, it's nice to see that Kate has finally moved on from that whole "NO! I MUST STAY IN TV NO MATTER WHAT!" state of mind. Finding a job in this economy isn't easy, and odds are, you're going to end up doing something you hadn't thought you'd be doing, simply because it's what will pay the bills. Believe me. I've been there. Unemployment is a bitch, and it's not necessarily your "fault" that it's where you're at. But flexibility of thinking is a good skill to have no matter what, and it's good to know that she's starting to exercise it. And hey, she can still capitalize off of her reality fame in her new line of work, right?
She might even be able to use her new gig to springboard back into television. I hear Extreme Couponing is pretty hot these days. Maybe they could use her couponing expertise?

Using a Metered-Dose Inhaler With a Mask Spacer
Shake the inhaler and remove the cap: Step 1
Shake the inhaler, and remove the inhaler cap. Check the inhaler instructions to see if you need to prime your inhaler before you use it. If it needs priming, follow the instructions on how to prime your inhaler.
Hold the inhaler upright and insert it into the spacer: Step 2
Hold the inhaler upright with the mouthpiece at the bottom, and insert the inhaler into the mask spacer.
Place the mask spacer: Step 3
Place the mask spacer securely over your child's mouth and nose, being sure to get a good seal. The mask must fit snugly, with no gaps between the mask and the skin.
Press down on the inhaler: Step 4
With the mask spacer in place, press down on the inhaler to spray one puff of medicine into the spacer.
Have your child breathe in the medicine: Step 5
Keep the mask spacer in place and have your child breathe in and out normally for about 20 seconds. This is how long it takes to breathe in all the medicine.
If your child needs another puff of medicine, wait 30 to 60 seconds and repeat steps 4 and 5.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 10/6/2013 (1535 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Angie Stephenson didn't know where else to park her "thank-you."
She had tried dropping by a fire hall and, when that didn't work, she called the Winnipeg Fire and Paramedic Service offices. The woman on the phone told Angie they don't get many thank-yous, but promised to pass along her thank-you letter. But that didn't seem like enough for Angie. She wanted to give them a basket of goodies, but she only knew the three paramedics -- Jane, Adam and Brendon -- by their first names.
And by their caring ways.
Which is why she emailed the Free Press about an incident that gave her a new respect for what the Winnipeg Fire and Paramedic Service does routinely every day and night.
In this case, it was a Saturday night in late May and Angie had decided to pick up her transit-driver husband, Ray Stephenson, after work. She placed her 21/2-year-old daughter, Amelia, in the car seat, put their dog, Molly, in the front seat, and off they went. It was just before 10 p.m.
Their 2012 Chevy Equinox was on St. Mary Avenue heading home to Charleswood with Ray riding in the back with his daughter, the way he always does.
Then they reached Garry Street.
First there was the jarring crunch of the impact. Then their SUV was spinning out of control.
Another vehicle had struck them broadside.
Angie said the other driver, a 25-year-old man, had run a red light by the Canada Post building.
The only ones injured in the collision were in the Stephenson's car.
Angie had "blown out" the rotator cuff on one shoulder, Ray had hit his head and hurt his arm. Amelia had cut her arm on the seatbelt.
The other family member in the car, Molly the dog, appeared uninjured.
Nearly two weeks after the collision, little Amelia was still pointing to her injured arm and recalling what happened in these words:
"Bang, bang, crash, crash."
Understandably, in the moment at the corner where it happened, Angie was angry. Or, as she expressed it.
"I was freaking out."
Specifically, she was angry with the other driver.
"How could you go through a red light?" she recalled yelling at him. "He just kind of looked at me."
By that time, emergency vehicles were on the way. It was when the first responders and paramedics arrived Angie's anger gave way to gratitude.
"The firefighter who held Amelia said 'Don't worry, I'll take care of your little girl.' "
The firefighter gave Amelia a teddy bear to hold. She's still holding on to that bear and carrying it everywhere with her.
"He took care of her while my husband and I were being taken care of by the other paramedics."
Another firefighter reassured Angie and Ray about Molly the dog. If they couldn't find anyone to take her home, Animals Services would look after her until they could pick her up themselves.
When they reached Health Sciences Centre, Angie was impressed by the way the paramedics comforted and stayed with them until they were placed in a treatment area.
And how, hours later, the paramedics she only knows as Adam and Brendon returned with another patient, but made the effort to visit and see how they were doing.
"I was still on a stretcher," Angie recalled, "and I was crying."
When Brendon asked why she was weeping, she told him.
"Because you guys care so much."
I can guess what some of you are thinking. They were just doing their job, what's the big deal?
The big deal to Angie and Ray is how they made the family feel it was more than a job -- that Angie, Ray, their little girl and even their dog really mattered.
That's what made Angie want to tell the first responders and paramedics what they meant to her and her husband that night.
And what did it mean?
Well, maybe a little background is in order on the Stephensons and the precious little girl who was in the back seat when her little world went "bang, bang, crash, crash." .
Angie is 42 and Ray is 60.
"It took us five years to have her," Angie said. "She's our little miracle."
Now you know why Angie and Ray are so grateful and thankful to the members of the Winnipeg Fire and Paramedic Service for what they did.
Because they're so grateful for what they have.

What Is Psoriasis?
Fast Facts: An Easy-to-Read Series of Publications for the Public
What Is Psoriasis?
Psoriasis is a skin disease that causes scaling and inflammation (pain, swelling, heat, and redness). Skin cells grow deep in the skin and slowly rise to the surface. This process is called cell turnover, and it takes about a month. With psoriasis, it can happen in just a few days because the cells rise too fast and pile up on the surface.
Most psoriasis causes patches of thick, red skin with silvery scales. These patches can itch or feel sore. They are often found on the elbows, knees, other parts of the legs, scalp, lower back, face, palms, and soles of the feet. But they can show up other places such as fingernails, toenails, genitals, and inside the mouth.

Who Gets Psoriasis?
Anyone can get psoriasis, but it occurs more often in adults. In many cases, there is a family history of psoriasis. Certain genes have been linked to the disease. Men and women get psoriasis at about the same rate.
What Causes Psoriasis?
Psoriasis begins in the immune system, mainly with a type of white blood cell called a T cell. T cells help protect the body against infection and disease. With psoriasis, T cells are put into action by mistake. They become so active that they set off other immune responses. This leads to swelling and fast turnover of skin cells. People with psoriasis may notice that sometimes the skin gets better and sometimes it gets worse. Things that can cause the skin to get worse include:
- Infections
- Stress
- Changes in weather that dry the skin
- Certain medicines.
How Is Psoriasis Diagnosed?
Psoriasis can be hard to diagnose because it can look like other skin diseases. The doctor might need to look at a small skin sample under a microscope.
How Is Psoriasis Treated?
Treatment depends on:
- How serious the disease is
- The size of the psoriasis patches
- The type of psoriasis
- How the patient reacts to certain treatments.
All treatments don't work the same for everyone. Doctors may switch treatments if one doesn't work, if there is a bad reaction, or if the treatment stops working.
Topical Treatment:
Treatments applied right on the skin (creams, ointments) may help. These treatments can:
- Help reduce inflammation and skin cell turnover
- Suppress the immune system
- Help the skin peel and unclog pores
- Soothe the skin.
Light Therapy:
Natural ultraviolet light from the sun and artificial ultraviolet light are used to treat psoriasis. One treatment, called PUVA, uses a combination of a drug that makes skin more sensitive to light and ultraviolet A light.
Systemic Treatment:
If the psoriasis is severe, doctors might prescribe drugs or give medicine through a shot. This is called systemic treatment. Antibiotics are not used to treat psoriasis unless bacteria make the psoriasis worse.
Combination Therapy:
When you combine topical (put on the skin), light, and systemic treatments, you can often use lower doses of each. Combination therapy can also lead to better results.
What Are Some Promising Areas of Psoriasis Research?
Doctors are learning more about psoriasis by studying:
- Genes
- New treatments that help skin not react to the immune system
- The association of psoriasis with other conditions such as obesity, high blood pressure, and diabetes.

According to Eris, Kurill Prime was the homeworld of the Kurillians, which was conquered by the Dominion in 2370. However, Eris was not a Kurillian but a Vorta spy, so at least part of her story was a fabrication. (DS9: "The Jem'Hadar")
According to the script, the pronunciation for Kurill was "kuh-RILL". [1]
According to the Star Trek: Star Charts (pp. 71, 74), Kurill Prime was the homeworld of the Vorta. This Class M world was where the Changelings discovered the Vorta as the small, timid, ape-like forest dwellers. They originally were, living in hollowed-out trees to avoid predators. Changelings genetically engineered the Vorta into intelligent humanoids and employed them at the highest level of the Dominion, as the story was told in DS9: "Treachery, Faith and the Great River".
The Kurill system was located in or near Dominion space. This system was a binary star system. Primary was a Class F star. Magnitude of this star was +1, which was 100 times brighter than the Sol. Secondary was a Class G star.

AN EXTRA £200,000 is to be spent on marketing the Brunel Centre as a regional shopping destination It is part of a bid to further boost visitor numbers and unit occupancy rates,which have increased in the year since receivers were called in.
The shopping centre in the heart of Swindon's town centre was placed under the control of receivers on December 23, 2011 when centre owners, CIT, did not meet the terms of a long-term loan against the building which it used to buy the centre for £130m.
The financial crisis resulted from a fall in property values over the last few years.
The value of the centre had been reduced to £87m, which is less than the value of the loan.
First Investments was appointed by Loan Servicers Solutus Advisers as the centre's property manager in March 2012 and asset manager in July 2012, meaning for some months it has been the centre manager. Loan Servicers Solutus Advisers works on behalf of the administrators, who include Deutsche Bank.
Since taking over, First Investments says it has reduced empty shop space from 11 per cent – 58,494 sq ft – to 3.34 per cent, while the rent arrears owed by traders have fallen from £598,000 to just £35,147. Meanwhile, footfall in the last three months of 2012 was up 100,00 visitors on the same period in 2011.
And First Investments has announced the administrators are injecting another £100,000 into the marketing budget, matched by £100,000 from the service charge budget funded by tenants.
This money will be used to market the centre regionally and locally to drive up footfall, occupancy rates and the value of the centre.
A marketing campaign is to start soon and is expected to take effect by the summer.
A spokesman for First Investments said: "Loan Servicers Solutus Advisers are acting for the CMBS bond holders and they see untapped potential in the Brunel.
"They have brought in retail specialists to assess the Brunel, one of these is Bernard Ferris, the head of shopping centres at Colliers International whose preliminary conclusion regarding the Brunel is 'The retail offer just needs refining and delivering to a wider audience'.
"Plans in the pipeline include a regional as well as a local marketing campaign and a new signage programme for the centre in the town as well as exploring other opportunities with Forward Swindon, which is focusing on retail investment in the town. "Alternative uses for the arcade extension are also being considered."
She also said that letting agents in Swindon, Bristol and London had secured one new tenant, The Fragrance Shop, which is now trading, and another new tenant was expected to be announced early this year.
She said "Footfall at the centre continues to be strong with one million visitors in June. Overall it is three per cent up on last year and three per cent above the national average."
Business as usual, say traders
TRADERS in The Brunel say the last year has been business as usual, despite the centre going into receivership.
Barry Cook, the co-owner of Cafelicious, which has been trading from Havelock Square since 2006, said: "It's not changed at all. I cannot see it's affected the town at all. I just think it's something and nothing.
"The only thing I would say is, having contacts with businesses elsewhere in the country, we're lucky with the management we do have that they're as helpful as they are. "
James Elsbury, the manager of Famous Memorabilia, said: "It's businesses as usual. It hasn't really affected us so we have just been ploughing on as normal."
Matt Hardy, the assistant manager of men's fashion shop The Forum, said: "We haven't seen any difference.
"If anything they have been more proactive to get people into the centre.
"There has been a lot more entertainment and things going on on Saturdays to increase footfall."

5 Ingredients: Lightened-Up Chicken Saladby Dana Angelo White in 5-Ingredient Recipes, May 11, 2011
Store-bought chicken salad is far from a healthy option, with some kinds weighing in at more than 550 calories and 40 grams of fat per cup! Instead of the mayo-drenched take-out versions, try this fresh and light recipe – all it takes is 5 simple ingredients.
Green Herb Chicken Salad
Yield: 6 servings
4 large split chicken breast, bone-in, skin on (about 2 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons plain nonfat Greek yogurt
3/4 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped desired green herb (Recommendations: basil, tarragon, flat-leaf parsley)
Additional ingredients: olive oil, kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Split Chicken Breasts
Leaving the bone in and skin on helps keep the low fat chicken breasts super moist and juicy. Instead of poaching in liquid, roast the chicken to concentrate the flavors (see directions below).
Mayonnaise and Greek Yogurt
You can't have chicken salad without a little bit of mayonnaise. Mixing it with creamy and flavorful Greek yogurt cuts down on fat but preserves all the creamy goodness.
Adding fresh veggies will add color, crunch and volume to the mixture. Diced bell pepper, thinly sliced carrot or even diced apple also work well.
Green Herb
Fresh herbs add the final touches of color and flavor to this recipe. Choose whatever herbs you have on hand. Tarragon has a stronger flavor with hint of anise that goes surprisingly well with chicken, while basil is sweeter and more subtle. For a totally different flavor, experiment with dried spices like in these Curry Chicken Lettuce Cups.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place chicken breasts on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil. Drizzle each piece with a 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil, and season well with salt and pepper. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes (or until the internal temperature reads 160 degrees F on a meat thermometer). Remove from oven and set aside to cool. Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, discard the skin and remove breast meat from the bone; chop or shred into bite-sized pieces. Transfer chicken to large bowl and add the remaining ingredients and season with 1/4 teaspoon each of kosher salt and black pepper; mix well. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator to chill slightly.

THE new head teacher of St Gregory's High School, who is tasked with the challenge of turning round the failing school's fortunes following a critical Ofsted inspection, says the school is making rapid progress.
Paul Heitzman, who will take up the post of head teacher officially in September, believes the foundations are now in places to ensure the school can go from strength to strength.
He said: "The school is moving on and it has moved on. Behind the scenes, an awful lot has been going on and there has already been a lot of ground work.
"But what we don't want to lose is the things that made St Gregory's so distinctive and special over the years."
The school on Cromwell Avenue was told it needed to take drastic action to improve by Ofsted following an inspection in December.
Inspectors criticised the school for failing to meet standards and was placed in special measures.
Since the report was published in February, the school has announced a new governing body, which Mr Heitzman described as 'the most powerful governing body' he has come across given the level of expertise they each bring to the role.
He added: "It is exciting to be joining what has traditionally been one of the top Catholic schools in the north west of England. The aim is to return us to that position as quickly as possible.
"Having met the new governing body, the staff team and students, the potential for improvement is clear and I am confident that rapid progress will be achieved."
Mr Heitzman has previously worked at St Thomas a Becket Catholic High School in the Leeds Diocese and St Mary's Catholic College in Wallasey, which was rated as outstanding by Ofsted in 2008.
He has also worked for Manchester Council supporting the head teachers of schools in special measures in the city.
Mr Heitzman will be joined by Ed McGlinchey as deputy head teacher, who has previously worked at Wright Robinson College in Manchester before moving to The Barlow School in Manchester, where he worked his way up to the position of deputy head.

One of the things I picked up at Haen Meats awhile back was a package of andouille sausage and last Sunday I finally put it on the grill.
Even though it was already cooked I kept it on the grill long enough to brown and split the casings. It smelled pretty good.
I don't know how authentic andouille from Appleton, Wisconsin is but this was some good sausage. It had lots of flavor and plenty of heat (which is why I grilled it when Mrs. Chicken wasn't around), and while it might not be 100% correct to serve it on hot dog buns with yellow mustard I thought it was just fine that way. However, after eating 3 of them for supper I paid for it the next day...
One of these days I'll pry open my wallet and have the real thing shipped up from Louisiana.

Chevy Volt Sales Surpass 2,000 for March, George H.W. Bush Buys Volt for Son
Brandon Hill

Former president George H.W. Bush jumps on the Volt bandwagon
The Chevrolet Volt has been battered and bruised over the course of the past six months. The vehicle has weathered an NHTSA investigation into fires,
attacks from the members of the media
, and
production slowdowns
. However, General Motors is now touting that the plug-in hybrid had its best sales ever during the month of March.
According to
, over 2,000 Volts were sold during the month, surpassing the previous high of 1,529 units in December 2011. GM also claims that it sold over 100,000 vehicles during the month that have an EPA rating of 30 mpg or better. Rather conveniently, GM only cites the highway rating instead of the combined rating to reach that 100,000 figure -- the EPA combined rating takes into account both city and highway fuel economy and is closer to what most drivers will see in the real world.
"GM's strategic investments in four-cylinder and turbocharged engines, advanced transmissions and vehicle electrification have been very well timed," said Mark Reuss, president of GM North America. "Three years ago, about 16 percent of the vehicles GM sold achieved at least 30 mpg on the highway. Today, that number is about 40 percent, and we have more new fuel-economy leaders on the way."
Former President George H.W. Bush bought a new Chevy Volt for his son, Neil Bush
In other Volt news, former Republican President George H.W. Bush bought a Chevrolet Volt.
Fox News
reports that the former president bought his son, Neil Bush, a Volt for his birthday.
In February, current President Barack Obama
promised that he would buy a Chevrolet Volt once he leaves office
. "Five years from now when I'm not president anymore, I'll buy one and drive it myself," said President Obama in a speech to members of the United Auto Workers in late February.
The Chevrolet Volt has a base MSRP of $39,145 before a
$7,500 tax credit
and can travel for up to 36 miles on battery power alone.

Do you ever have those days where just don't want to get out of bed and get dressed? That was me on Saturday. It's been a little gloomy here in L.A., maybe that's why.
Good thing I got my butt out of bed, I was invited to the P&G Orgullosa de mi Belleza (Proud of my Beauty) event at the Sunset Tower Hotel. It was such a great afternoon of pampering.
I got my hair and make up done with Pantene and CoverGirl products. Then I had a hand massage with Oil of Olay body lotion and a neck massage. I was in heaven.
I also had a chance to meet Celebrity Makeup Artist Rebecca Restrepo. She gave me some tips on how to create a cat eye, without struggling (LOL). We even walked out with a gift bag full of P&G goodies!
The outfit I wore was just thrown together at the last minute. The cardigan is from H&M, the navy top is from Macy's, jeans are Levi's Curve I.D. straight leg from HSN, my shoes are Kensie's, my jewelery is from Lane Bryant, and the handbag is courtesy of Shoedazzle.com.
Disclaimer: Entry to the event was free along with the products. The above is my true and honest opinion.

>Suggestions and Feature Requests>Training plans - Export to iCal
First of all I am happy with the ability to be able to put my training plans in here.
It would be nice though to be able to export to iCal or have an iCal link that i can open in my ofline calendars so I get reminders before I go run as to what I am supposed to do that day.
Another nice to have would be to be able to get an optional reminder e-mail that will let me know a day ahead what my plan is for the next day.
Kind regards and keep up the good work.
With the many feature requests you receive, I was curious if the export to iCal was close to making the short list? (Original discussion here.)
The training plans have been a great addition to RA and have helped keep me motivated and on track with my running this fall...but I still suffer from severe laziness when it comes to keeping my personal calendar updated.
I appreciate all the support you give us with your site.
I just came here to research and inquire about this. Thanks for all you do Eric and I would definitely use this.
Creator of RunForth | @robraux | shodless.com
+1 for iCal support. Mostly so I can integrate my RA training calendar on my phone along with every other calendar I have to review
Also would be useful to import from iCal as well. I currently use http://www.yourtrainingcalendar.com/ to generate my training calendars and view them in Google Calendar. I'd like to be able to do the same in RunningAhead.
I'll see if I can squeeze this one in between large projects.
Non ducor, duco.
Sweet. I love you Eric!
I'm back.
Interval Junkie --Nobby
+1 for the the feature request
+10 for a response from the developer about where it might be in the queue! Thanks, Eric.
2016 Goals: Lose the 10lbs I gained for not having goals
This would be awesome.
+1 for ical export.
Are you a Heartosaurus?
At this current moment in Online Training Logs/Software; This is an Essential Component.
Eric, you should be proud......this is the best online training tracker out there. I am in the online space, and I can assure you that if you keep up your track record you will be rich if you aren't already. You have a GREAT tool in a niche that has a tremendous amount of volume. I spent the past week talking to many athletes and coaches about what is the best online training tracker/tool, as well as consulting many websites and blogs. There were many sites mentioned, but the top two that were repeatedly referred to were Training Peaks, and RunningAhead. I'm here to tell you that after extensive research YOU WIN hands down. There are only a couple things they do better, and having the ability to synchronize your training plan/calendar with Google Calendars is one, followed by the ability to have a daily email sent out with your workout for the day. How quickly can you make this happen? I'm choosing RunningAhead, because your site is MUCH cleaner, easier to use, there is more interaction among the members, and you seem to be ON POINT with attending to inquiries and showing genuine interest in improving the product. I would however like to see this feature added asap because it's essential. Also, Training Peaks has a feature where you can BUY plans from Expert coaches. This is something you need to implement at some point (if you haven't already). The coaches will bring you more members, more credibility, etc... Is there currently an ability to browse plans that other users/coaches have posted? For example are there any pre-set marathon plans to browse and potentially select and make my plan?
Anyway Eric, Keep up the good work. I would love to see you add the calendar sync with Google feature and daily email ASAP. In return I and your loyal followers will continue to spread the word, post reviews on our blogs and facebook, and do whatever we can to help you take the market share in this arena.
(p.s.......here's a more trivial request...........ability to preview post before posting
Great job, Great site!!

Eric, Sync would be great, but iCal export would get the job done in the meantime. Today, I harness Google's calendar to send me daily updates from my "Running" calendar. Importing this from an iCal formatted export would nearly eliminate any manual work on my side...leaving me more time to read RA msg boards, errr, actually run.

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas - Two young men were caught on camera trying to break into a home in West Harris County.
The incident occurred last Friday around 8:45 pm at a home on the 19000 block of Azalea Brook Way, according to the Harris County Sheriff's Office.
The video, taken by a hunting camera set up in the backyard, appears to show two young men looking for a way inside the house.
One of the men tries, unsuccessfully, to break the back door window with a hammer.
"Then they immediately went to the master bedroom window and they were able to enter through there," said the homeowner who wished to remain anonymous.
"They just pried it (open) and were able to remove the hooks that are latched on to the top."
The homeowner says that they dropped the hammer and one of them went inside the house.
He said one of them took a couple of watches, his coin collection and some family jewelry, while the other served as the lookout.
The burglar wasn't inside long, the homeowner said, before the alarm scared them off.
"Thank God I just got an alarm," the homeowner said. "If it didn't go off, they would've probably got their hands on a lot more stuff."
He said that he's also thankful no one was hurt.
"It could've been a lot worse," he said. "If I was home and they would've entered, they would've gotten killed or hurt really bad by a gun. We live in Texas. We love our guns and we got cameras."
Anyone with information on this case is asked to call the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

CFO at North Florida Regional faces DUI charge after celebration
Published: Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:48 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 2:48 p.m.
A top administrator at North Florida Regional Medical Center crashed his car and drove while impaired after celebrating the opening of a new wing at the hospital last month, according to a Gainesville Police report.
Jay St. Pierre, 46, the chief financial officer who assumed the job at NFRMC in mid-January, was arrested on a charge of DUI on June 21.
The accident occurred about 1 a.m. in the 2100 block of Southwest Second Avenue. St. Pierre was eastbound on Southwest Second Avenue and failed to negotiate the curve toward West University Avenue, the report said.
The report said St. Pierre ran over the curb, hit a utility pole, uprooted two trees and flipped onto the driver's side. The report stated that his breath smelled of alcohol, that he swayed and slurred his speech, and that he performed poorly on a field sobriety test.
St. Pierre told police he had been at a celebration for the new wing at NFRMC and went to a bar, having three drinks — two bourbons and one glass of wine, the report states.
He told police he dropped some friends off at Ballyhoo Grill and was heading home when the crash occurred. The report noted his home was in the opposite direction.
Police reported that St. Pierre was not injured but did have pain in his right thumb and hand.
St. Pierre's breath samples at the Alachua County jail registered .155 and .163, the arrest report states. In Florida, .08 is the legal standard for impairment.
St. Pierre could not be reached for comment Wednesday afternoon. His secretary said he was out of town on vacation.
In reaction to the DUI charge against St. Pierre, Pamela Rittenhouse, spokeswoman for NFRMC, said Wednesday afternoon: "We are aware of the situation, and we are handling it internally. He is still employed and we're reluctant to say any more because it's an active police investigation."
St. Pierre was the CFO of Parkridge Health System in Chattanooga, Tenn., before he was hired to oversee NFRMC's finances, budget and accounting.

The .svg file is from another site. I'm using it to test an SVG sprite sheet.
You should just see 'GOODBYE' in a small red box. IE8 shows only half of this in the same red box.
The script displays the GOODBYE image at about half of the size that the .svg file shows it at (I need to be able to do this and also show at any size and the script will do this in modern browsers if I change the values).
This works in all current browsers and latest mobile phones, but not IE8 (or 7) and not some lesser popular mobile phones.
I've got a feeling there's either an obvious reason or an obvious solution.
If someone can help me get this working in IE8 then I think all the mobiles will also display correctly (as they show exactly the same problem as IE8).
Also, for this, I want to use the inline sprite sheet and I want to use <object>. Please don't suggest <img> or using a CSS background image. Thanks.
I don't know much about SVG but according to the documentation IE8 doesn't support SVG unless you are using some sort of plug in like the adobe SVG viewer.
Thanks Paul,
The <object> method to display .svg does work in IE8. God knows why or how, but it does.
The problem is the alignment / CSS to get the inline vector sprite working.
My example (http://page-test.co.uk/vs.html) shows the SVG file working in IE8 but just needs some help to position better in IE8.
I honestly think an expert can get this working. I've tried everything I can think of.
I've never had good luck setting dimensions on inline elements, since they technically aren't allowed to have any.
Img and object are special law-breakers, because they are replaced elements, who are calling another file. Usually this other file has set px dimensions (like raster images do) so some browsers will allow those elements to show the set dimensions even if the file never loads (Gecko browsers seem to be the only ones who get this right: if the image or file does not load, the element didn't magically become a block, so it still acts like an inline and collapses any dimensions you were hoping to give it... as it should).
So I'm curious, does IE do any better if you set the object to display: block? I dunno anything about svg except I can't figure it could have any intrinsic pixel-based height or width...
(if I had IE available at the moment I could test this in teh browser)
What surprises me is how little people know (or care) about SVG. I mean that with the greatest respect as this includes many experts. I have so much trouble getting help on forums when it comes to SVG.
However, this question is probably more a 'how do I get the <object> tag to do what I want?' question, so hopefully somebody will know.
..I'm testing IE now.
No, doesn't do anything. Thanks though.
For the record, the latest (BB OS 7) BlackBerry browser also has this problem.
I've simply never worked with it. I've never worked with a company who had anyone creating svg images (or svg-anything) and when browsers finally (10 years after svg was created) got off their duffs and started seriously supporting it, a lot of us never took notice. Last time I ran across SVGs... were when I was taking map-of-the-world images from Wikipedia. One svg took a good 4 or 5 minutes to actually render in my Firefox of the time, which was 3.6. The PNG version rendered immediately.
I suppose to see if SVG actually has anything to do with the problem, you could substitute some random XML document in there and see if IE and the mobiles react the same.
The people I know who do know a lot about SVG, I don't know them on forums. https://twitter.com/erikdahlstrom is one example. Mebbe I ping him.
Re experts here: there are plenty of gaps around these forums... see the Perl/Python section here as an example. I think web development is fractured and specialised enough that no one place manages to attract all the experts of all the stuff we could be working with.
All the documentation and examples on the web say that svg doesn't work in IE8 unless you have a plugin of sorts. I only have IE8 tester and IE9 in ie8 mode to test on but they both confirm the results that have been documented. You will get a bordered object element 10px high showing a partial missing image icon. If you increase the size of the object you can see the whole missing image icon.
What are you seeing in your IE8? Can we see a screenshot?
I mean that with the greatest respect as this includes many experts. I have so much trouble getting help on forums when it comes to SVG.
I'm afraid I'm strictly CSS but I tend not to wade into stuff until its broadly usable.

REYBRIDGE eventer David Doel enjoyed a successful outing at Belton International Horse Trials, in Lincolnshire last weekend.
Doel won the Askham Bryan College Open Intermediate U21 class, under the watchful eye of the Askham Bryan College British Young Rider selectors, on Miss Caruso, owned by Jane James.
The pair produced a strong dressage test scoring 24.6 penalties, to hold the lead alongside Tom Jackson (Waltham Fiddlers Find) going into the showjumping phase, where a pole down in the showjumping added a further four faults to David's score.
The World Class Development Programme rider then produced a good cross-country, going clear just a fraction outside the time to finish on a score of 31.8 in only the combination's second-ever outing.
Doel also competed Jiggle Jones in intermediate section F, finishing fourth and heads to Weston Park this weekend with with Chap and Billy Pastime, both owned by Gillian Jonas, and Principal Espoir, owned by Ian James.
Badgerstown-based New Zealander Sir Mark Todd took the Grantham Cup title with Leonidas II and topped an advanced section at Belton on Amacuzzi, with Marlborough-based world number one Andrew Nicholson third on Quimbo.
Nicholson was also second in advanced section N on Avebury, as was Lambourn's Laura Collett on Pamero 4 in intermediate section F.
There was also a second place for Milton Lilbourne-based New Zealander Lizzie Brown in intermediate section H, with Playtime NZPH.
Marlborough's Pumbaa Goess-Saurau was third in the open novice U18 section on Scotfree II, as was Lower Stanton St Quintin's Kitty King and Celylor LAN in Open Intermediate section K.
Foxham's Georgie Spence was fourth and fifth on Billy Ball and Diamond Cove in novice section C.

[wsj-responsive-sandbox id = "0" ]
While HBO's "Game of Thrones" took the lead in the primetime Emmy Awards race with 19 nominations earlier today, George R.R. Martin spoke to fans in Switzerland at the Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival. During the course of a one-hour talk (embedded here), the fantasy writer revisited the idea of completing the popular television series with a movie—calling it unlikely.
"The question that we face with the show is that the books continue to get bigger and bigger, and the show really can't get much bigger," he said. "We're the most expensive television show in the world right now, and we have the biggest cast, as far as I know, of any show on television." Martin compared the budget of a three-hour fantasy film—at around $200 million—to that of a roughly $60-million television budget for 10 episodes of "Thrones."
"We can't keep adding characters and making the show more and more expensive—we're pushing up against the limits there," said Martin. "So we'd either have to make some cuts going forward, and simplify the story, or we have to increase the format."
"I happen to know, someone has told me—some source that I won't name—that there will be some major battles coming up: some dragon action, and some stuff with the Wall and White Walkers. It looks to be kind of expensive," he added, laughing.
"How are we going to do that? I don't know," he said. "I'm not saying that [the movies are] going to happen, and it's not my idea. It's just an idea that I've endorsed, let us say. And I'd love to see it, but I think the odds are against it. They're probably not going to happen."
In the interview, Martin also talks about writing strong female characters, how journalism helped him come out of his shell, and why he's more interested in heroism rather than heroes.
The video begins at about 22:15, and Martin's answers are in English.

HOUSTON - People across Texas -- from Dallas to Houston-- saw a mysterious flash in the sky on Friday.
Around 6:45 a.m., KPRC Local 2 received calls and Facebook comments from all over Texas regarding a flash of light in the sky.
While many people saw the flash, they didn't all see it in the same color.
"Blue green flash of light here in Montgomery," Kathy Traxler Brock posted on KPRC Local 2's Facebook page.
"There was a large flash and then looking to the north I saw an orange streak in the sky," Anthony Brearly wrote.
"Saw it in Webster ... blueish-purpleish light," Irma Gonzales said.
A hashtag, #blueflash, started trending on Twitter shortly after the flash.
"It could definitely be a fireball or a meteor," said Dr. Carolyn Sumners of the Houston Museum of Natural Science. "The most interesting thing about this whole report, this whole strange thing that happened that people saw this morning, is color. Usually, everybody agrees on the color. They're usually greenish or maybe just white. To get all of these colors, I think we're looking at not only the normal creation of color, which is getting the gasses in the atmosphere excited, causing them to glow – that's your greens -- but also we're probably looking at affects of the fog.
NASA said that one if it's meteor cameras in Mayhill, New Mexico, which is about 500 miles west of Houston, captured video of what officials suspect was a meteor.
Officials said the fact that the image was captured from so far away was unusual and testifies to the brightness of the event.
NASA officials said what fell was most likely a fragment from the asteroid belt and that preliminary results indicate that meteorites may be on the ground north of Houston.
People who live in Pine Prairie, near Huntsville in Walker County, called 911.
"Said they heard an explosion, house shook," Pine Prairie Fire Chief Mark Robinson said. "Kind of narrowed down an area from the calls that it may have impacted."
Robinson said many of those calls came from the area of Scott and Cauthen roads. KPRC Local 2 went up there and checked the area out and found a lot of logs, ponies and pasture, but no space rocks.
"It does look like a falling star -- a meteor," space expert James Oberg said.
Oberg said it's important to know how high up in the sky the suspected meteor was spotted.
"When they come in from space, they're moving at 5, 10, 20 miles a second, they hit the upper atmosphere about 80 miles or 60 miles up and that's when they explode. If they get a little lower, they leave trails, which we saw. The fact that this left a trail, it means we can start looking for even lower sightings because it might have actually survived and a piece of it may have reached the ground."

CINCINNATI (AP) -- A Montgomery County trial for an adoptive father who has already pleaded guilty in nearby Miami County to raping children in his care was postponed Tuesday amid plea negotiations.
A Montgomery County court official said next week's trial date has been vacated and a Dec. 20 hearing has been set on a possible final agreement. No other details were made public. Defense attorney Nick Gounaris declined to discuss what's been offered in the plea talks.
The 40-year-old Troy man is charged in Montgomery County with three counts of rape of a child under 13 and four counts of complicity to child rape. The three boys involved were ages 9-12.
Last month, the man pleaded guilty to six counts of rape in Miami County. Twenty-five charges were dropped with his agreement to cooperate with authorities.
The Associated Press isn't naming the adoptive father to protect the children's identities. He said in a jail interview Sunday that he was sorry the children were hurt and that he wanted to spare them from having to testify.
The Montgomery County prosecutor says the adoptive father brought one of the boys to a Dayton man's home where both men raped the child. Patrick Rieder, 32, faces trial on four counts of rape of a child under 13 and dozens of pornography charges.
The prosecutor in Miami County says the adoptive father also arranged for a man there to rape one of the boys. Jason Zwick, 30, of Miami County was arrested earlier this year on child rape charges. Zwick's trial is scheduled Jan. 8 in Troy.
The adoptive father has agreed to testify against Zwick, and is to be sentenced in Miami County after Zwick's trial. The adoptive father faces at least 60 years in prison.
Authorities said the adoptive father had been caring for three boys and a girl in his home in Miami County. The longtime foster parent and youth basketball coach had adopted all of the children except for one of the boys, whom he was in the process of adopting when he was arrested in February.
The arrests came after an investigation that began when an undercover detective saw online references to men seeking "taboo" sex.

CROSBY, Texas - A Crosby family is distraught over the death of their dogs.
Laura Nickels said all four of her family's pets were in their yard Sunday morning when the neighbor's three pit bulls busted through a picket fence and attacked. Two of the Nickels' yorkies were killed, a Chihuahua was badly injured, and another Chihuahua escaped unharmed.
"We had to sit there and watch them attack our animals," Nickels said. "It was horrible. We heard all the squealing and screeching and barking and growling and my kids were screaming and crying."
Nickels said she now fears for her family's safety and wonders what would have happened if her five children had been playing in the yard at the time of the attack.
Local 2 spoke to the owner of the pit bulls. He admitted his dogs are aggressive towards other animals but insists they love people.
"It's my fault," said Cletis Shields. "They should have stayed on the chain. I should have kept them in my yard."
Shields said he's hoping he and the Nickels family can reach an agreement and put all this behind them.
"I'll replace the dogs and deal with the vet bill. I told her that," Shields said. "But she wants me to do that and get rid of my dogs."
That's something he said he is not willing to do. Shields said his family is attached to the dogs and insists they're gentle with people.
"I fear for the lives of my kids," said Nickels. "I fear for the lives of my neighbors children and neighbors."
The Harris County Sheriff's was called to the home on the morning of the attack and they are investigating. Shields said he was issued a citation for not keeping his dogs in his own yard.

HOUSTON - Demand for a bulletproof backpack is skyrocketing after the school shooting in Newtown, Conn.
Amendment II, a Utah-based company, makes children's backpacks lined with a light material that can stop handgun rounds.
"The armor is just in the back panel," said Rich Brand with Amendment II. "The concept came up as things happened in schools. Children need protection as well."
So many orders have come in recently that the Amendment Two website has crashed several times.
Some Houston-area moms believe a bulletproof backpack is a good idea.
"It's something I would buy in the future," Maria Taylor said.
But the president of the Houston Police Officers Union said "buyer beware."
"It's an overreaction," Ray Hunt said. "It's horrible. I don't believe any of those children -- if they had this type of backpack at that school would have been saved."
Amendment II said the backpacks cost $300. For more information, visit www.amendment2.com/shop/ballistic-backpack.
