Say It Ain't So
You've seen the infamous pictures of Dirk Nowitzki and Steve Nash drunk in a bar with a pal taken way back in 2003. Now, I think, comes the unearthing of a tribute song to said friend. There is no way it's real. But I know it's real bad. Otherwise, I'm speechless. --Richie Whitt

A Brief Reflection on History
As we gather together to mark the anniversary of Hiroshima, it is appropriate that we take a moment to review the historical record. History records Franklin Roosevelt as famously saying that December 7, 1941 was a "date that will live in infamy" Had he only lived long enough to witness the bombing of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, he may have reconsidered that statement. Had he lived a bit longer, the total annihilation of Nagasaki might have rendered him entirely unable to fully express himself.
Robert Oppenheimer, upon realizing the full destructive power of the device he helped create, could only express the depth of his sadness and shame in Hindu verse when he said "now I have become death, the destroyer of worlds" Would Dr. Oppenheimer, had he lived to see the proliferation of nuclear weapons throughout the world, have chosen the same words today? I think that both men, giants in their times, would have been moved to reconsider their statements and perhaps even may have joined together to offer more sage advice to the world community.
History speaks to all of us. And whether by actions or words we speak to and become part of it. And so, as we mark a date that has in great measure defined our past, what do we do and say to shape the events that will determine our future? Whatever we decide to say I think Roosevelt and Oppenheimer might agree with us that the first two words must be "Never Again!"

Georgia woman killed by gunman at Florida airport was parish stalwart
ATLANTA (CNS) -- Olga Woltering, a bedrock member of her parish and the Atlanta Cursillo movement and beloved to her family and many friends, was among five people killed in the Jan. 6 shooting at a Florida airport.
Woltering, 84, was leaving for a cruise with her husband, Ralph, to celebrate his birthday and were flying through Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport when a gunman started shooting people in a baggage claim area. Ralph Woltering was not injured.
Esteban Santiago, a 26-year-old Army veteran, is charged in connection with the incident. In addition to the five people who were killed, six were injured.
The Wolterings, who are great-grandparents, have been active members of Transfiguration Church in suburban Marietta for nearly 40 years, according to the parish. Her funeral Mass will be celebrated at the parish Jan. 12.
"Olga was one of the most joyful, loving, caring and committed people I have ever met," Father Fernando Molina-Restrepo, Transfiguration pastor, said in a statement.
"This is a horrible tragedy for everyone here at Transfiguration, especially because Olga was so loved," the statement said. "May God give consolation to all of the victims of this tragedy and may God give eternal rest to those who died. Especially to our beloved Olga."

Mel's doing just fine, thanks
Crazy Mel Gibson was the subject in court today, and it sounds like he's making progress on his alcoholism. TMZ says Mad Mel's lawyer Blair Berk went to a hearing in Malibu where the people checked in on the actor/director/producer.
"I truly believe the rehabilitation in this case is being very effective," the judge said, after Berk assured the court Gibson was meeting the terms of his probation. The judge added he'd like Gibson to appear in court eventually for a once over, but at this point "it's counterproductive to have him in the courtroom."
Well, it wouldn't be counterproductive for The Juice*, but we'll have to wait until his Aug. 23 hearing for more.

Miami (AFP) Oct 27, 2012
Across the eastern US, Americans made frantic preparations Saturday for a possible superstorm as Hurricane Sandy lumbered north after leaving 59 people dead in the Caribbean.
The so-called "Frankenstorm" was expected to make landfall somewhere between Virginia and Massachusetts early Tuesday, hitting during the frenzied final week of campaigning before the US elections on November 6.
The storm was at category one hurricane strength at 1800 GMT, with sustained winds of 75 miles (120 kilometers) per hour as it moved along the east coast, the National Hurricane Center said.
"Sandy (is) producing tropical storm-force winds over the Atlantic from the northern Bahamas to near the coast of North Carolina," the center said, adding that the storm was traveling in a northeasterly direction at 11 miles (18 kilometers) per hour.
Forecasters at the National Weather Service warned the storm would "result in significant impacts along coastal North Carolina" beginning late Saturday.
Sandy could cause "moderate coastal flooding and rough surf" through Monday, drenching the state with three to five inches (seven to 13 centimeters) of rain inland and as much as five to eight inches along the coast, they warned.
But forecasters and emergency officials were far more worried about what could happen further north.
"This is a large storm that is forecasted to impact the Mid-Atlantic and other parts of the East Coast with strong winds, coastal flooding, inland flooding, rain and snow," said Craig Fugate, head of the US Federal Emergency Management Agency.
"People should be ready for the possibility of power outages paired with cold temperatures," he said in a statement Saturday.
Sandy's likely collision early next week with a seasonal "nor'easter" weather system was predicted to super-charge the storm, dragging it to the west where it is expected to slam into the coastal US states of Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and even inland Ohio.
Alex Sosnowski, an expert senior meteorologist for Accuweather.com, called Sandy "an extremely rare and dangerous storm," menacing 60 million people, that "could lead to billions of dollars in damage."
Residents were bracing for huge tidal surges, power outages, inland flooding and even heavy snowfall on high ground far from the coast.
"Sandy will be more like a large nor'easter on steroids," Sosnowski wrote.
It could have the strength of a category one or two hurricane, he explained, but with powerful winds extending out hundreds of miles from the center.
President Barack Obama was briefed by top emergency officials Saturday, the White House said, and governors declared states of emergency in Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Virginia, the US capital Washington and a coastal county in North Carolina.
The mayor of New York, Michael Bloomberg, said the Big Apple was ready for anything Sandy could throw at it, and cautioned against panic.
"Whenever we're faced with a tough situation, New Yorkers always show courage, compassion, and presence of mind #Sandy," he tweeted.
The storm was a hot topic on Twitter, with people sharing fears and bluster, or just trading stories of stocking up.
"$30 flashlights. What is the world coming to? #Sandy," wrote Lisa Brock, in New York City.
Meanwhile, concern was also mounting that storm damage and power outages could have a major impact on voter turnout, polling station readiness and last-minute campaigning by Obama and his Republican rival Mitt Romney.
US Vice President Joe Biden canceled a Saturday appearance in Virginia Beach to allow officials to focus on storm preparations and Romney did the same.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters Saturday the president was giving priority to preparations for the impending storm over campaigning, but had not so far changed his schedule because of Sandy.
Meteorologists have nicknamed the unusual confluence of weather patterns a "Frankenstorm," because it is due to hit just before Halloween on October 31 and is composed of parts from different sources, as was Frankenstein's monster.
The powerful hurricane earlier claimed 11 lives in eastern Cuba, including several people who died in the rubble of collapsed buildings.
On Wednesday, Sandy unleashed its wrath on Jamaica, where one person died, and on Haiti, where 44 people were killed according to an updated official toll.
Two people were reported dead in the Dominican Republic and one in the Bahamas.

Pac-10 ShootAround: Talent drain or potential refill in 2008-09?
Getty Images
Talent goes, talent comes
By Ted Miller
Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images
Oregon got a gem in McDonald's All-American Michael Dunigan, just one of the many highly touted newcomers to the Pac-10.
Five Things To Watch in '08-09
By Ted Miller
New coaches are, er, nothing new. The stakes are high, and guys get fired -- or leap into more prominent jobs. But the offseason Pac-10 coaching carousel -- and the soap opera that accompanied it -- was just nuts.
Chris Graythen/Getty Images
After a rocky season away from the team, Arizona's Lute Olson is back on the Wildcats' bench.
One would think losing a pair of lottery picks would make a team vulnerable, but it's hard to imagine any team other than UCLA beginning the season as the Pac-10 favorite. The Bruins, much like their cross-town rival's football team, will remain on top of the conference hill in terms of both perception and reality until someone knocks them off. Speaking of that cross-town rival, though, USC might be a candidate to threaten UCLA, despite the Trojans' own personnel hits with the NBA draft departures of Mayo and Davon "What was he thinking?" Jefferson. DeRozan leads a strong recruiting class, and forward Taj Gibson and an experienced backcourt make a school-record third consecutive NCAA tournament extremely likely. Arizona State, with Harden and Pendergraph, also could be a threat, but the Sun Devils won't be a scrappy little surprise squad this go-around. After that, the pickings are slim. In the end, the safest answer to who could be UCLA's foil is: Nobody. • Is Washington's Lorenzo Romar on the hot seat?
Romar hit all the right buttons his first four years at Washington, but two consecutive mediocre seasons (which ended with the Huskies failing to earn NCAA tournament berths) and losing seven straight to rival Washington State have left a small but growing minority of fans wondering whether the magic is gone. The Huskies, despite Romar's touted recruiting prowess, have become the state's third-best team, behind the Cougars and Gonzaga. Romar might have the right mix of experience and youth this season to get the critics off his back, although this squad is hardly a shoe-in for an invitation to the Big Dance. • The player of the year is
It could be a veteran point guard, UCLA's Darren Collison, who's trying to showcase his NBA bona fides. It could be Arizona State's sophomore guard Harden, the top returning scorer in the conference and the only returning member of the All-Pac-10 first team. Or perhaps Mr. Double-Double, Washington's Jon Brockman, will lead a Huskies resurgence and earn accolades for his distinguished career numbers. Or maybe it will be Chase Budinger leading a resurgence at Arizona and making Lute Olson naysayers eat crow. Considering Love earned top honors as a freshman last season, the POY field also needs to include DeRozan, because the world loves spectacular dunks and the Compton, Calif., product apparently doesn't mind scoring fancy. UCLA's Holiday probably should get a mention, too, although he might not take the lead role a POY winner needs. • Are there another six NCAA bids in the conference?
Maybe, but don't take that number to Vegas. The swing team probably is Washington, where Romar needs an invitation after missing the tourney in consecutive seasons. Five teams is more realistic, with UCLA, Arizona State and USC looking like sure things, and Arizona and Washington State possibly among the nation's top 64 teams. Stanford, California and Oregon probably lost too much to make runs, while it's an iron-clad lock that Oregon State will not be invited.

2008-09 Team CapsulesBy Ted Miller
Lute Olson is back, but it remains to be seen whether that's a good thing or whether Arizona is heading for a Joe Paterno situation, in which a legendary coach doesn't know when he should gracefully exit (there was nothing graceful about last season's mess). What's certain is the return of Chase Budinger and Jordan Hill means the Wildcats figure to push toward the top half of the conference. Not so good was super-recruit Brandon Jennings' decision to bolt for Europe. Arizona State
Guard James Harden and forward Jeff Pendergraph are a good start -- it's always nice to welcome back a pair of guys who can score and play defense -- but nearly all the scoring production is back, with all five starters returning. Center Eric Boateng should benefit from the departure of post talent from the conference. So what will the team that tied for the nation's biggest turnaround (13 games) do for an encore? Maybe become more confident on the road, after going 4-6 in 2007-08. Cal
Coach Mike Montgomery is back in the conference, only now he's wearing blue, which figures to make the Cal-Stanford tilts even more spicy. Junior wing Patrick Christopher is an underrated player, but the Bears have issues in the frontcourt. Who's going to replace Ryan Anderson's huge production? No returning player averaged more than 3.8 rebounds per game. A lot will be expected of freshman guard D.J. Seeley. Oregon
Is Oregon's Ernie Kent safe after the announcement of his contract "extension" this offseason? He might not feel secure with the team he has coming back, considering the Ducks must replace most of their scoring and rebounding as well as their often-lethal perimeter game, even with guard Tajuan Porter back. The frontcourt is thin, although the arrival of 6-10 McDonalds All-American Michael Dunigan, who headlined a strong recruiting haul, should help. Of course, marquee recruits haven't always yielded immediate returns for Kent. Oregon State
Welcome Craig Robinson to the Pac-10, penthouse of college basketball! Now, let us show you your living quarters in the basement. At least the Tarver brothers, Josh and Seth, who combined for 16.3 points a game, and six other returning players won't be inexperienced. Only their experience has been losing. Stanford
Hey, buddy, can you spare 14 feet of scoring and dominance? Of course, new coach Johnny Dawkins won't know what he's missing after the departures of the Lopez Twin Towers, Robin and Brook. It's nice to have a veteran point guard in the steady if unspectacular Mitch Johnson, but it will be a huge adjustment not seeing the big guys inside. The frontcourt concerns are augmented by the fact that the returning players combined to shoot just 37.5 percent from the field last season. UCLA
A fourth consecutive Final Four? Why not? The Bruins, despite providing the NBA with a pair of lottery picks and a second-round selection, continue to look like the class of the conference. And who's going to doubt taskmaster Ben Howland? He supplemented his roster with a pair of McDonalds All-American guards, Jrue Holiday and Malcolm Lee. Darren Collison and Josh Shipp both are back for their senior seasons, likely hoping to improve on inconsistent junior campaigns. The frontcourt, particularly in the area of rebounding, is a little iffy, although James Keefe looked solid during the NCAA tournament. USC
It's clear USC isn't backing away from making L.A. a two-team town, although the O.J. Mayo investigation might turn things sour. The Trojans lost Mayo and Davon Jefferson, but if McDonalds All-American wing Demar DeRozan lives up to his hype -- he's likely another one-and-done recruit -- he and Taj Gibson, Daniel Hackett and Dwight Lewis will give the Trojans a nice nucleus of players who should keep them in the top half of the conference. Also, Leonard Washington's winding academic saga is over, so he is eligible and likely will help on the boards. USC could get a big boost if UNC transfer Alex Stepheson is declared eligible immediately. Washington
Workhorse Jon Brockman leads a Huskies program that will be hungry to climb back into the top half of the conference after two mediocre seasons and NCAA tournament misses. The big question is whether the addition of touted recruit Isaiah Thomas means the point guard problems of the past two seasons are solved. If wing Quincy Pondexter makes his long-anticipated -- and presently doubted -- breakthrough, the Huskies could make some noise. Of course, they're going to have to learn to shoot free throws (58.6 percent -- yuck), play consistent defense and replace 3-point specialist Ryan Appleby. Washington State
Only two starters and five letter winners are back, and the departed took with them most of the scoring, passing and stealing. It looks like a transitional season, and this might test the mettle of the Cougars as to whether their run within the top third of the conference will continue. Returning are senior center Aron Baynes (who upped his game in the NCAA tournament), resourceful guard Taylor Rochestie and sixth man Daven Harmeling. With nine freshmen on the roster -- a sneaky-good incoming class -- it's clear the Cougs are heading into a youth movement.
Pac-10's bestBy Doug Gottlieb
ESPN Doug Gottlieb counts down the best teams in the Pac-10 for the upcoming season: 1. UCLA: Loaded again. Darren Collison, Mike Roll and Josh Shipp welcome in an incredibly athletic group to change the perception of UCLA offensively. J'Mison "BoBo" Morgan is a freak inside and Jrue Holiday might be the most talented Howland recruit yet, while Jerime Anderson and Malcolm Lee give Howland six legit guards to push the limits of UCLA's fast break. With the rest of the league down compared to 2007-08, UCLA is more athletic than ever. 2. Washington: Jon Brockman plays with the same toughness and agility as Tyler Hansbrough. But he needs consistent help from Quincy Pondexter to get UW to the Big Dance. Tiny Isaiah Thomas, who will add offensive punch to the veteran backcourt of Justin Dentmon and Venoy Overton, is similar to former Dawg Nate Robinson in terms of offensive talent. 3. Arizona State: James Harden and Jeff Pendergraph need Ty Abbott and Derek Glasser to be more consistent. Look out for incoming freshman Johnny Coy to steal some wing minutes opposite Harden. Herb Sendek will not be on the bubble this season. 4. USC: Out with O.J., in with Demar DeRozan. DeRozan is a big-time athlete who can score off the dribble and the catch. There are questions for the Trojans. Will Taj Gibson find his freshman form? Will Mamadou Diarra give the men of Troy the inside grit they need? Can Daniel Hackett emerge as a star? And finally, what does the NCAA do regarding the O.J. Mayo payment allegations? 5. Arizona: Lute Olson, Chase Budinger, Jordan Hill and Nic Wise are back from the Arizona program that flamed out in the NCAA tournament first round. The season could rest on talented, but sometimes soft, freshman Jeff Withey. 6. Cal: The Bears lost the league's leading scorer, Ryan Anderson (first-round pick), and the most athletic big man in the league, DeVon Hardin (second-round pick). Their coach was fired, and their top recruit (Garrett Sim) now is headed to Oregon. But Mike Montgomery and a number of players returning from injury should be huge factors in the Bears' reemergence in the Pac-10. 7. Washington State: Klay Thompson (son of former NBA player Michael Thompson) will be a star, and with Aron Baynes and Taylor Rochestie back, the Cougs might grind their way into the Dance again. Look for more up-tempo play out of the Palouse. 8. Oregon: Tajuan Porter, Joevan Catron and a bevy of young, talented Ducks will be fun to watch but might be a season away from dancing. Michael Dunigan is a beast. Will they defend? 9. Stanford: Anthony Goods and Lawrence Hill are fine, but they will have to rediscover their offensive touch and redo their defensive philosophy without the Lopez twins to handle the opposition. Johnny Dawkins let his top recruit (Miles Plumlee) go to Duke and traveled with the U.S. Olympic team instead of grinding late in the recruiting period, two decisions that might prove costly. 10. Oregon State: This could take a while.
If I were the Pac-10 commishBy Andy Katz
ESPN.com I definitely would relax the television contract with FSN. Every Pac-10 coach wants more exposure on other platforms. Opening up the Pac-10 to more viewers, just like the other high-profile conferences that have multiple network deals with CBS and ESPN, will only help the conference. Also, the conference tournament needs more exposure, beyond only the final on network television. I like keeping the tourney in Los Angeles. The Thursday-through-Saturday format and the traditional round robin make the Pac-10 the best conference in the country for scheduling. The only blemish seems to be the television exposure.
Top Returning Assist Leaders
|Mitch Johnson, Stanford, Sr.
|Taylor Rochestie, Washington State, Sr.
|Nic Wise, Arizona, Jr.

Hi ladies. Sorry for the drive-by last night. Inbetween meetings now so stopping by to say hello to everyone else. Ran 7 yesterday, 4 today, and planning one more easy run on Friday before the Go! HM on Sunday. Someone asked earlier what Go! is... it's in St. Louis (marathon and HM). I'm going for a girls' weekend with a bunch of online running friends. Hoping to see Karen at some point there!
Hi Judy! Sorry to hear it's still snowing.
Lisa, hoping the long drive was enjoyable. Or at least uneventful.
Marjorie, good luck with the charts. (Medical charts? What sort of job do you have?) Nice run as always.
Carol, enjoy your run later today. Hoping you can put those woolies away soon.
LC , how nice to have a few days off for a getaway! Enjoy the outside time.
Hi Camille. Enjoy your 8 today and good luck with the taxes.
Karen, if you're heading out to California, let me know! I hope you decided to take the afternoon off to do something nice for yourself.
CrazySue, what a sweet dog trying to save everyone who was swimming. One of my RC friends has a dog that tries to herd us when we're out running! He worries when anyone falls too far behind and goes back to check on them.
Cindy, a running skirt sounds fun. I keep thinking of getting one but haven't yet. Let me know how you like it.
Hi Linda. Have fun at the night race! Hoping the trail isn't too rooty or rocky.
Ginny, boo on bad tummies ruining a good run.
Tessa, you are quite a storehouse of California weather knowledge! Anyone that ran the LA Marathon a couple of years ago would attest to the fact that howling winds and lashing rains do happen here. We've had the driest January-March on record this year. Good for running, not good for the snowpack or our water supply for the rest of the year.
Oh, and Cadbury's eggs are acceptable any time of day. Especially if you bought them on sale post-Easter. I ate a half a bag of whoppers eggs last hight after dinner. Urp.
So the trip to Ohio for the weekend of the 4th is definitely on. DH signed up for this race the evening of 7/3: http://www.flyingrhinocc.com/summer-race-series/.
Lisa, is that far from you?
I plan on taking my bike and doing a lot of running and cycling. And by then my swimming should be to the point that I can do that as well in the lake. Close to shore. I am going to plan on doing the 5K in Sandusky, and I also found a duathlon/triathlon not far from there the Saturday following the 4th. We may decide to come back sooner than that so will wait on signing up for that one. It will be good to get away for an entire week and get in some good training for the sprint tri I signed up for later in July.
I'm going with the whole "fake it til you make it" thing and trying to be positive. I also walked into the boss' office this morning and told him I solved his vacation problem. I then convinced him that we should get comp days for being out in AZ over the weekend when we had the meeting Friday and the meeting Monday (and I ran a 50K on Saturday and DH raced bikes on Sunday). So now he will have enough days to be out of my hair for two weeks in June, and I have 2 extra days of vacation. And he thinks I'm looking out for him. It's almost too easy.
Since everyone else is blogging: http://karenrunsfar.blogspot.com/Upcoming Races: 2016: BCS Marathon. 2017: Houston Marathon, The Woodlands Marathon, Oklahoma City Marathon and Missoula Marathon (50th one on my 50th birthday). After that, who knows?
Hello again...I just got back-stopped at 7.2 miles because I was out of water and near my house. Usually I limit the runs in the neighborhood to about 3-4 miles because of the steep hills, but was told it would be "very, very good" for me to run the 8 on the hills. If my 410 is right, and it probably is, the "run" had 1961 ft of ascent and 1924 of descent (started it bottom of drive). I will confess to having a few unkind thoughts about the guy who recommended I do it. : ) I walked the steep parts, so it took forever.
Cindy, I'll ck with DD about dinner.
Marjorie, I don't envy you the chart reviews either. I did some QA as part of my last job. It actually wasn't bad when I got into it.
Tessa, I enjoyed the weather lesson. My dad was in a typhoon when he was in the Navy-sounded pretty scary.
Gatsby, hope you enjoy GO! I think I've mentioned it, but I did the half one year and was support crew for DD another year. The shirt is my favorite-so comfy. Nice race. DD got master's at Wash U.
Linda, I'm with you on races vs speedwork! Good luck!
Laura, enjoy the break at your mom's.
Sue, it's hard to believe you're swimming in a lake so early in the year.
Karen, I like your problem solving!
Karen....so excited that you are going to do the 5 k here in Sandusky! The way you have been flying on your feet however, I will be way, way, way behind you, but still so fun to have you here! Oh win overall female...that would be awesome!! Yesterday I suggested you may be overtraining and now I am egging you on to win!!
6/8 Hatfield/McCoy Half, 8/18 lake Erie Shores and Islands Half, 9/21 Mighty Niagara Half Lewiston, NY, 10/7 Cleveland Rock & Roll Half 10/6 or Detroit Free Press 10/20, A Christmas Story 5 or 10K Cleveland 12/7, Santa Hustle Half Cedar Point 12/15
Run to live; live to run
Tomorrow will be a big run. I'm po'd. Dad has set his wedding date. Sept has become June. Date is June15. How the hell did that happen? Oh Hell!!!
Gatsby I'm a physical therapist. I work with several hundred of out outpatient centers on coding, policy reimbursement etc. today I was looking at 175 charts we had an issue with from a work comp carrier. Our billing office can only do so much and the carrier was denying some things. I reviewed and made my recommendations on appeals since it needed clinical input. Lucky i process info fast. I got them all done and the follow up calls.
I review other things frequently for individual clinicians to give them feedback. . This was a special project.
Marjorie, I know it's a cliche, but it is one for a reason. No fool like an old fool.
Sigh. Hope this does not muck up your plans for H-M!
Karen, you are sneaky. *bows down in admiration*
7.31 at lunch.
And I have one thing to say about needing woolens still:
Or Baaaaaaaaaa-h as the case may be.
It is only 73 days away. And he says 80 people. Wow. twin is highly concerned and not happy. guess he should have paid more attention when this started. I called and told him the date. Oh and I'm supposed to order the disposable cameras for the table. Really? Really? Geesh.
Home again.
For those of you familiar with the I75 route near Cincinnati... Touchdown Jesus is back!! Lest you think I speak disrespectfully...What would you call this pose?
Back because in 2010 he was struck by lightning and burned completely within a few minutes.
Although he's not quite the same...
Taken from I75 earlier today as we sped past. I did giggle when I saw the lightning rod on top of his head and the new nicknames when I Googled "touchdown Jesus"... apparently now he's "Hug Me Jesus" or "$5 Foot long Jesus" ... I'm glad that he has a sense of humor and am glad to see this back in some form.
Karen and Ginny-Alas, we will be in North Carolina for the 4th of July. Driving back the weekend afterwards. You know, because one 13 hour each way drive wasn't enough this year.
Karen-that bike race isn't too far from me. If you guys want to use our house let me know. The race is probably less than or no more than an hour from my house. Doesn't hurt to have someone in and out of it.
Marjorie-Disposable cameras? Is this symbolic?
Tessa-whew! Imagine if Veronica and I had planned our flights and all around Shadow of the Giants being that first weekend?? Dodged that bullet! I guess I'll just have to plan on Mountain View next year around same time. 2 weeks? I have a marathon in 2 weeks? Must mean that I have another in 4 then. And away we go...
Camille-I'd be thinking unkind thoughts too. Probably about the same ones my SIL was thinking part way up that "moderate" hill. Actually she was surprised that she felt pretty good the next day.
Only "eventful" thing was when dh elbowed dd's Slurpee and it went all over the back seat, into my laptop backpack, onto books, etc. That was fun.
Good and interesting read comparing a road marathon to a trail race. Granted the writer is a different level than most of us speed and distance wise but the tone carries through none the less. I love trail running because it pretty much eliminates that "all out" road thing. But I love road races because they are spectacles and it's nice to cover ground faster sometimes. I also love the unexpected stuff that comes up on a trail. Things that would just totally leave us flabbergasted on a road, you just slow down and go around, over or under on a trail then continue on. I think that it's the very uncertainty of what I'll come across on a trail, how I'll react to it, what I'll do to deal with it, and how I'll go on that appeals to me. You sort of give up control to a big extent on a trail too. Hitting those mile/minute splits perfectly, just not going to happen when you have to climb over a tree or deal with a 4 foot deep gulley that's only 5 feet wide.
Off to bed.. to dream of happy, pretty trails with gentle surprises.

B & B Outfitters - Pecos Mule Deer - HUNTS SOLD OUT
|Our Pecos Texas Mule Deer ranch is located in Pecos and Terrell County (approximately mid-way between San Antonio and El Paso) and is nestled at the foothills of the Glass Mountains.
Our free-ranging/low fenced Mule Deer will average 150 or better with an average spread of 22-25, although many larger ones may be harvested. Our success rate has been an incredible 100% since 1996! By game managing our deer we are able to produce quality hunts year and year. That, in part, has led to our success rate. So you too will have the opportunity to walk away with a Pecos Mule Deer buck of your choice! We NEVER charge a trophy fee — whether he scores 102 or 202 the price doesn't change!
All of our packages include meals, lodging (we have lodging on both ranches), either fully or semi-guided (there is no extra charge for 1x1, nor do we charge a "rental fee" for stand or equipment usage!), care of game, mount preparation and delivery to our local taxidermist. If you want your taxidermist to mount your animal then you will need to make arrangements prior to your departure to have it shipped to yourself if you are flying.
If you do choose to fly in you may opt to have us pick you up at the rate of $250 per vehicle per round-trip. However, due to the distance from the airport to our ranches that we do ask that you arrive AND depart between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. If that is not possible then you will need to make plans to rent a vehicle. A map to the ranch will be provided at your request.
You need to plan on arriving the day prior to your hunt and then depart on the day after your hunt concludes. Non-hunters are welcome, as are women and children, but this is based on space availability. The price for non-hunters if $100 per day for children under 12 and $150 per day for those over 12. Non-hunters are also welcomed to accompany you on your hunt or they may sit in there own blind, again based on availability.
Whether you like to spot and stalk, sit in a blind or have someone rattle horns, then we have the hunt for you! We at B&B Outfitters will always treat you as Number 1. That is why we try our best to accommodate your needs, whatever they are. Within reason, anyway!

Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland. It helps regulate the natural sleep-wake cycle.
Light affects how much melatonin your body produces. During the shorter days of winter, your body may make melatonin either earlier or later in the day than usual. This can lead to symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD).
Melatonin supplements may be used to treat SAD, jet lag, and insomnia.

Amanda Bynes Looks Like This Now
My first reaction to this photo was, "Holy shit, Nicki Minaj's turning white just like Michael Jackson!" so imagine my surprise to learn it's actually Amanda Bynes who paid someone money to look like this. Someone clearly not concerned with losing their medical license over carving a crazy person into a pure nightmare, so I'm going with the homeless guy behind her apartment building. "Well, I normally only use my tin can for open heart surgeries, but for the right sandwich, I'll make an exception. Smoke weed with you first? If you insist."

Edit: After half day, my wife's Mac started having the same problem. I have then applied the solution that I found in the Apple
My Mac Monday (MMM11) Mark McCall
Hi, my name is Mark and I'm an addict.
Lets start at the beginning, I've been a Windows user since version 2 (circa 1989). My first contact with an Apple machine was using a 'Mac Classic' at night tech on a desk top publishing course in the early 90′s using Pagemaker (remember that!). But that experience firmly cemented my loathing of all things Mac and it was to be many years until that bias was broken.
Fast forward to January 2005 and after watching the Steve Jobs keynote launching the mini my curiosity got the better of me and I ordered my first Mac. While I was taken with the OS and the hardware design, the G4 CPU wasn't as impressive as my Intel powered PCs of the time. I have to admit it was to be another year or two before I truly became a 'switcher' when I bought my first Intel powered machine – a black Core 2 Duo 13″; MacBook. That laptop was a revelation.
Since then my addiction has grown and I feel I've made a sizeable contribution to Apple's huge gain in stock price over the last 5 years. Running our technology news site – AutomatedHome.com – I now use a 13″; unibody MacBook as my main machine. It's a fantastic work horse for writing and creating the graphics that go along with our posts. At home our videos and movies are played using a Mac mini connected to the AV System (using the excellent plexapp.com). The family use an iMac in the kitchen which serves as the TV in there too using an EyeTV USB tuner – it even records and re-encodes my wifes Soaps for her iPhone. Even my work machine is now a Mac (mini) with only the occasional foray into my Fusion VM to run a single work app or the dreaded IE8.
Of course there are downsides to all of this. Once you've drunk the Kool-Aid there's no turning back. You'll never consider using a grey pc box again for anything other than a server (our media server still runs Windows – WHS). Your toy budget will soar through the roof with the constant Cupertino temptations and you'll be the butt of abuse from those irrational trolls and haters.
The upsides? Someone once told me 'you never regret buying quality – but you often regret your economies'. It's true, I've often bought something cheap and regretted it, often buying a second time to replace it with something I should have bought at the outset. I'm old enough (sadly) to have learnt this by now and while of course Apple stuff is often more than you'd like to pay, I've never regretted any of my Mac purchases for a second.
Just this month I eBay'd that 2005 vintage Mac mini for almost ?200!. It's going strong and now with Leopard installed is still a very usable and valuable machine today. More than you can say for most 5 year old 'PCs'.
Macs have brought me that infamous 'it just works' computing where the hardware and software combine to create platforms that are a joy to use.

Co-ownership Proving a Viable Option for Prospective Property Owners
With the average house price now over R800,000, increased cost of living and the average age of the first-time home buyer being 37, applying for a joint mortgage is becoming more of an attractive option for people trying to enter the property market. In a recent poll conducted by ooba - South Africas leading bond originator - 38% of people surveyed believe that partnering with a friend or relation to get a bond is a positive option, as it enables them to secure a mortgage.
36% of the people surveyed were opposed to this option as they feel it would be too much of a risk, and 26% believe that this option should be considered, but only if absolutely necessary.
Saul Geffen, CEO of ooba, says that although applying for a joint home loan with a friend, sibling or partner might be an effective way to secure a bond, especially for first-time buyers, there are a few issues to consider in order to protect your investment.
"It is important to remember that buying a property is a serious commitment, and while buyers may trust and like the person they are applying with, they also need to recognise that additional factors need to be carefully considered," advises Geffen.
He says that potential buying partners need to ensure that their goals and finances are aligned and every aspect that is agreed upon is covered in a formal contract. "This will make future dealings far simpler as, hopefully, any possible conflicts have been discussed before they become an issue and the presence of a watertight contract will safeguard against any one party backing out at a later stage."
Geffen says that it is imperative to investigate the financial circumstances of both partners in detail. "Make sure that you know and understand exactly where your partner stands in terms of their finances such as income, monthly expenses and savings and be prepared to do the same. If your partner isn't happy to disclose this information, seriously reconsider entering into an agreement with him or her.
"The contract should also cover other unexpected situations such as what happens to the property in the event of the death of one of the partners, or if one of the partners experiences financial difficulties."
In the unfortunate circumstance of death, the property will automatically go into the deceased estate and be dealt with as part of it, in line with the instructions in the will. It is therefore essential that both owners have standing estates in place. Geffen says "It is also recommended that both owners have life policies in place, which will cover their share of the home loan if a death does occur.
This will ensure that the surviving partner does not have to repay the whole bond single-handedly." Another important issue to discuss is an exit-strategy. Geffen says it is more than likely that a partner will consider selling the property due to changing circumstances such as marriage or job relocation.
"The day-to-day financial concerns such as who will be responsible for the utility bills, insurance, the hidden cost of repairs and maintenance and who owns and pays for the furniture and appliances will also need to be in the contract. If not communicated, these issues are likely to cause conflict between the joint owners. "If all possible situations are considered and outlined in a contract before the property is purchased it is far less likely to lead to conflict at a later stage and, more importantly, your investment will be protected," concludes Geffen.
Employees fortunate enough to receive a bonus this December should consider putting a portion of their '13th cheques' towards paying off their home loans, before indulging in festive season spending.

Most South African consumers are unaware of their credit profile, which could put them at risk when applying for home-loan finance.
According to a recent poll conducted by ooba, South Africa's leading bond originator, three quarters of South African consumers are unaware of their credit profile. The poll revealed that 69% of respondents do not know their credit status.

This is our dream home and this is really a dream come true for us!! Thanks a lot for your help and quick responses. It has really been a great experience working with ooba.
I am thankful for the wonderful manner in which you assisted me with my insurance. You are an amazing asset to ooba.
I was told by 5 people that I should go through Yvonne Viljoen. She managed to get me what I wanted from the bank. She was thorough, fast, efficient and ahead of the schedule. Because of this experience I will recommend ooba and Yvonne and I can say that I cannot relate to other people's disappointment when buying a home.
I tried ooba despite not knowing anybody that has gone through a bond originator. The process isn't over yet, but so far it is the best decision I've made. Efficient, amazing service. You always know what is going on and guided me through the entire process.
"Thank you ever so much for this. You are totally on the ball and your service is appreciated - it's rare nowadays."
"Thanks to ooba for their great service, I will definitely recommend you."
"Thank you for promptly sorting out the issues we have been having."
"You are a very professional person to deal with. Thank you for your efficient and excellent service."
"Baie dankie vir jou vriendelikheid."
"ooba is really going out of their way to assist us here."

RIP Betty Jane Kenney
This morning my mom passed away. Yesterday I thought she was dying but she was still breathing through the night. When I checked on her at 3:30 a.m. (I had an intuition that something had happened) she was taking quick shallow breaths. When her health aide arrived at their regular 7:00 a.m. time she was gone. She looked very peaceful and I think she must have passed easily. This afternoon I went to see my dad in the hospital (he's got pneumonia) and he's taken this development well. Tomorrow I'll go to the funeral home to make arrangements for her remains. Then, in a couple months, I'll organize a memorial service. (Since her friends are all fairly elderly it wouldn't do for them to come to a service during a cold winter day and themselves fall ill!) It's the end of an era. At the moment I'm not sure what else I can say. I hope her being — wherever it is and whatever it is — is happy.

Tutorial for Onyx Boox M92
After having used my M92 with the original firmware it came with over a year ago, I recently updated it with the latest firmware, with the friendly help of Waledemar from
, who mailed me these instructions:
.................................................. ...................
please download and install this update first:
Copy the file to a sd card and put it into your device.
Just for case if your battery is not charged properly connect the reader to the wall charger (or USB Port of your PC)
switch off the reader
hold the ok /joystick button pressed and switch on the device.
Wait approx. 10 minutes till the device restarts
Afterwards please install the new patch. It fixes most important bugs in the new PDF Reader
Please download this file:
Unzip it and copy those three files from archive to the internal memory of your device. In your device click on update.oar and the last update for PDFReader will be installed.
The device will reboot.
Best Regards,
Customer service
.................................................. ................
Because it might help some others too, I would like to say this:
Because Waldemar did not mention anything about unzipping the update, I just copied it to an sd card and from there on my M92 as he instructed. It did work exactly as he said.
But to unzip the PDF Reader patch I first downloaded/installed WinRAR (64) as I have Windows 7, 64 bits:
This is the free trial version.

When I open the "pdf reader.rar" 3 items appear:
The one on top has under "Name" has only ".." (2 dots) and under "Type" it has "Filemap". The rest there is blank.
The second one has: under "Name": "onyx_pdf_reader" and after that more data.
The third one has "update.oar" and also more data.
In my "Downloads" I right-clicked on "pdf reader - WinRar archive" > "Copy to" > "books (G)". So I did not copy those 3 files separately.

"In your device click on update.oar and the last update for PDFReader will be installed. The device will reboot."
But I don't see "update.oar" on my device to click on. Did I do something wrong?

MAEBASHI, GUNMA PREF. – The operator of a tour bus involved in a fatal accident on an expressway employed the driver on a day-by-day basis in violation of the road transport law and committed other operational breaches, a special transport ministry audit and details provided by the carrier's president indicate.
Although the law bans short-term employment of bus drivers for safety reasons, the operator, Rikuentai, based in Chiba Prefecture, gave one-off jobs to Kazan Kono, 43, its president, Yumihide Hariu, 55, told the Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Ministry, ministry officials said.
Kono was arrested Tuesday and his case was turned over to prosecutors Thursday.
The bus was on its way to Tokyo Disneyland in Chiba Prefecture from Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, April 29 when it crashed into the end of a roadside wall on the Kanetsu Expressway in Gunma Prefecture. Seven passengers lost their lives and another 38 were injured when the wall effectively cut the bus in half.
Kono, who was also seriously hurt, was quoted as telling investigators he had dozed off due to fatigue at the time of the crash.
Investigators are examining Kono's health and what he was doing before the crash to determine whether it was caused by overwork, they said. He is suspected of negligent driving resulting in death and injury.
Before the horrific crash, Kono had completed a similar bus trip from Tokyo Disneyland to JR Kanazawa Station starting Friday night and ending Saturday morning, Osaka-based tour agency Harvest Holdings said. The ill-fated trip to Tokyo Disneyland began Saturday night.
It has also been found that Kono asked Hariu to assign an assistant driver to accompany him on the earlier trip to Kanazawa as he was concerned he did not fully know the route, according to the officials.
A male employee at Rikuentai accompanied Kono for part of that trip, but he drove alone on the run back to Disneyland.
Transport ministry officials meanwhile said they have found the carrier was violating separate government regulations, including failing to provide instructions on routes and scheduled stops to its drivers.
On Wednesday, police learned Kono didn't take a shorter route via the Joshinetsu Expressway designated by the travel agency that organized the tour.
Although the April 29 bus crash shocked the nation as Golden Week holidays kicked in, a 2009 survey by the internal affairs ministry illustrated that the tour bus sector was not immune to severe accidents, especially if drivers are fatigued.
Of the 136 long-distance bus drivers who took part in the survey, conducted between April and May 2009, 122 said they had either fallen asleep or felt drowsy behind the wheel and 130 had faced risky situations while driving due to fatigue.

Your Dream "Jersey Shore" Vacation, On The Cheap!
It's time for a vacation, right? I've got an idea for ya. Why don't you rent the house the "Jersey Shore" kids stayed in for their wild summer in Seaside Heights? Currently, the house will run you $3,500 a night, but come May—when beach season rolls around again—that will go way up, to $6,500 a night, reportedly three times what the house rented for in the pre-reality show days. But think about it: You and your honey could get close in the hot tub, which presumably has been scrubbed down since the summer. You could make a big Italian meal like "The Situation," cuddle like Ronnie and Sammi, or see if you can master the duck phone a little better than Snooki. Sure, it'll be freezing out, but you don't actually have to leave the house. Heck, it's not like the crew went to the beach more than once all summer. [NY Daily News]

FNX-9 Failure to feed
After research and firing I decided to puchase the FNX-9. Took it home and while cleaning it for the first time I noticed the feed ramp wasnt very smooth. I took it to the range and about 15-20 out of 100 rounds it failed to feed. I only brought 100 rounds of Remington UMC 115 grain. I am calling FNH monday. Anyone have similar issues? I dont want to shoot another 200 rounds to find its not a break-in issue. Thoughts?
I recently bought a FNS-9. First few mags or so, it was sensitive to limp-wristing (every time my wife shot a mag, she's also a lefty, not sure if that mattered). After that no issues.
I have the .40 version. Not a problem at all and I run almost anything I can get through it. Give em a call.
Limp wristing. New gun (not broken in) and the crappiest ammo available.
I've never once had an issue with Rem UMC in any gun of mine or my friends.
Limp wristing I guess could be possible, but I'd suggest it more a case of magazine spring needing breaking in.
Sent gun back for repair. Got it back. It looks like they polished the ramp and paper work says they used $100 in parts. No discription of what part. Took it out yesterday and ran three mags threw it and had zero problems.
About 2 weeks. I didn't mail it I drove it to there repair center in Arnold, MO. I had them mail it back to me.

Berita Harian floats 'local issues' link to MH370
A Berita Harian column today floated the idea that the missing Flight MH370 could be linked to controversial local issues, quoting an anonymous former military intelligence personnel.
Echoing the government's line that "all possibilities" were being investigated, the Umno-linked daily said that the Lahad Datu intruders, Pakatan Rakyat-supporters and Syiah believers can also be suspects.
"It is not impossible that the missing aircraft has links to past incidents in this country like the Lahad Datu invasion or more recent developments," the unidentified former intelligence personnel was quoted telling Berita Harian journalist Mohd Anwar Patho Roman.
Following the government's confirmation that someone had deliberately altered the MH370's flight path, but stopped short of confirming a hijacking, local dailies today have been raising the question of "who" was responsible for the incident.
After eight days since the plane went missing, Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak said yesterday that the plane's communications were deliberately cut off and the plane veered off its Kuala Lumpur to Beijing route.
In the article, Mohd Anwar also quoted the military intelligence saying that 80 percent of the pilots working for Malaysian Airlines were members or supporters of opposition parties.
A small portion of them were also Shiites, believers in an Islamic sect that has been outlawed in Malaysia, he wrote.
"It is not impossible, the Shiite issue that rocked the country before this may also be linked to the loss of flight MH370," the intelligence personnel was quoted saying.
However, the intelligence personnel refuted PM's claim that MH370 may have flown into a "northern corridor area" stretching from Thailand to Central Asia as it was too far off course without refueling.
Mohd Anwar also spoke to local university political scientists who think that an international power struggle may have a part to play in explaining why 239 people on a plane cannot be found.
"Some new defence policies implemented by Asia Pacific countries does not bode well with the super powers.
"The missing plane may be a way to 'teach' targeted countries but the government of Malaysia has become the victim.
"Our government may know this but has to keep it a secret...," the anonymous academic told Berita Harian .

The Stunning Downfall Of Jude Law
My Dearest Jude Law,
It was only a few years ago that I was pining after your sexy European bod. You were smart, sly, and so appealing. But now, that sultry smile that once got me all hot and bothered now looks more like a pervy grin. And you kinda just seem like a douchey losertron. You may be trying to win me back by playing Watson in "Sherlock Holmes," but to tell you the truth, you may have fallen so far from grace that it's just not possible. You're like the male Lindsay Lohan.
After the jump, a look at Jude's short Up and very long Down.THE WAY UP
- Jude got his first taste of fame across the pond, doing theater in London. His acting expertise brought him to Broadway in "Indiscretions." He got a Tony nomination, making him one to watch.
- Jude's big movie break: the futuristic thriller "Gattaca," alongside Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman, as the suicidal but genetically perfect Jerome Eugene Morrow. A blockbuster hit.
- Now a Hollywood stud, Jude only made women want him more when he married actress Sadie Frost in 1997. British power couple!
- Jude nabbed an Oscar nomination for his role as Dickie Greenleaf in "The Talented Mr. Ripley."
- Jude continued his rise to movie star greatness with 2003's "Cold Mountain."
- It's confirmed: People names Jude Law the "Sexiest Man Alive" in 2004.
- Jude and Sadie called it quits after five years of marriage in a very public divorce and custody battle over their three kids.
- While 2004's "Closer" was an artsy fave, Jude's adventure flick "Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow" was a mediocre ride, even with the help of Angelina Jolie.
- Basically an autobiography of his love life, Jude played a total womanizer in 2004's "Alfie."
- Then he went and started dating his "Alfie" co-star, Sienna Miller. They looked good together, but never quite came off quite as classy.
- Losing his dramatic flair, Jude took a "Holiday" in the 2006 mildly successful rom-com.
- Officially making himself a douche bag, Jude had a full-fledged affair with his kids' nanny, ending his relationship with Sienna.
- Reveling in his womanizing ways, Jude beds one woman after another.
- Trying to get back into the spotlight, Jude cross-dresses as a tranny for the film "Rage." The movie looks good, but Jude Law as a tranny is just random.
- Jude puts the cherry on the loser-sundae: It's announced his former lover Samantha Burke will give birth to his love child.

After sitting outside for many years in Buckman, the boat gets a face lift
By Tina Snell, Staff Writer
A past resident of Little Rock, near Buckman, now has the boat his stepfather put together from scrapped material in the 1960s while working at Crestliner. The prototype was created by Boeing Aircraft Company, but never manufactured.
Today, David Czech, who now lives in Fairbanks, Alaska, has refurbished the boat and it looks brand new.
Czech's stepfather, Max Muehlbauer, now deceased, worked at Crestliner Boats in Little Falls for more than three decades, beginning in 1956. He was a tool and die man repairing machines by making the necessary parts as well as making parts for boats.
Czech said he learned from talking to old-timers who remembered his stepfather that Muehlbauer could create a boat from engineer's designs that came to him on napkins or a piece of cardboard. He was that good.
"But he was also humble, I was told. He was happy to design the boats that others, higher up, got credit for," said Czech.
While college-educated engineers received the credit for the boat designs, Muehlbauer, a blacksmith before he went to work at Crestliner, was the one who designed the parts and the machines to make those parts.
"I learned there wasn't a part he couldn't fix or a boat he couldn't make. Everyone has told me he was a tremendous asset to the business," said Czech.
One of the trademark designs of Crestliner is the ship-lap design on the sides of the boat, similar to siding on a home.
"Dad designed the machine which created that process for Crestliner," said Czech.
Muehlbauer and his wife Jenny loved to fish. They spent many happy hours on Platte and Sullivan lakes with their boys.
Working at Crestliner, Muehlbauer was able to bring home scrapped materials, rejects or pieces with flaws. From those pieces, he would create boats for himself and Jenny to use.
"Dad and us boys would work for hours in the shop where we lived in Little Rock, making a boat. He would use it for several years, then sell it. Then he'd make another," said Czech.
Crestliner had the Boeing Company in Washington stamp the two halves of the boat because Crestliner did not have the machinery to do such a large piece, said Czech. This was to be the first welded hull put out by Crestliner.
"Dad told me those two parts sat around the plant for two years, getting in the way," said Czech. "He said that Crestliner just never got around to making a large enough welding machine."
When Crestliner decided to scrap the two halves of its prototype boat, Muehlbauer asked if he could take them home. He did. That was in about 1963.
The boat was riveted together instead of the original intention of welding. Muehlbauer created the transom and seats to complete the boat.
That boat became the family's fishing boat and is still in the family.
Muehlbauer retired in 1989, and due to declining health, his trips to the lakes with his Crestliner grew further and further apart.
Czech, moved to Alaska in 1972 with his wife, Lilly Rose (Walcheski) from Foley, after he returned from Vietnam. When visiting his parents in 2007, his stepfather gave him the boat as a gift.
"I had such fond memories of that boat and offered to buy it, but dad told me it was mine," said Czech. "I got the boat back to Alaska, and with my boys, Josiah and Joshua, refurbished it."
Because the boat had spent many years in the elements, the Alaska family had to replace the plywood floor, sand and scrape the aluminum exterior, then repaint it. They also refurbished the trailer that Muhlbauer had originally made.
"I named it 'Little Rocky,' because it came from Little Rock," said Czech. The boat made its maiden Alaskan voyage on Birch Lake near Faribanks in August 2013.
Czech is now retired from the construction business and fishes as often as he can in the boat he remembers as a teen.
"This boat is something I will pass onto my sons or my daughter, Sarah," he said. "It's full of good memories, helped along by a gifted man who put Crestliner 'on the map. She is running good, Dad, because she is a Crestliner and that makes it part of you. Thanks, dad."
Max Muehlbauer passed away at age 85 in March 2013. Jenny, 84, passed away Sunday, April 20, and was laid to rest in Buckman, next to her fishing partner and loving husband.
