Valyn had travelled no more than a hundred yards when he felt a familiar vibration in the tunnel floor. He had resided in the tunnels and caverns of the undermountains long enough to be familiar with the signs of a tunneler wurm approaching. Valyn ran on, the best idea when one of the wurms was approaching the area you were in, was to no longer occupy that area. He kept a portion of his attention on the tremors in order to ensure he was not charging into the beast's path, and the rest on the tunnel ahead. It would not do his machinations good to stumble into a trap. It only took a couple seconds for Valyn to be sure the wurm was behind him and would pass somewhere back there, probably not even intersecting the tunnel he was in.
Valyn ran on.
Something was odd… the tremors and rumblings had not faded. The wurm seemed to be pacing him. He was concerned by this development, but didn't get paranoid, it was probably a coincidence. Or so he thought until the vibrations altered. He slowed to a halt for a moment. The wurm behind was closing as he paused, but the difference was… ANOTHER WURM! This was no coincidence, the great beasts did not congregate, they seemed to avoid each other, perhaps as a matter of feeding so that they did not strip an area. Maybe for safety sake, for if a pair of the behemoths collided, the speed they travelled at would most likely create a fatal impact for both creatures. Both were closing on him, the newest from his right. Staying still was definitely not an option. Valyn growled low, kicking off into a run again beginning to slowly pull away from the original wurm. The newest threat seemed to be shifting it's direction, following Valyn's progress. A part of his mind was intrigued by how the beasts tracked him through solid stone. But only a small part. He moved as quickly as he could without stumbling, sniffing deeply of the air as he did, following the gnoll-stench, it grew stronger… he was closing on his prey as his predators tried to close on him.
A worrisome sound echoed from behind him, the first wurm had broken into the tunnel Valyn ran down… he was no longer outdistancing the massive menace. It would be gaining slowly on him, the lessened amount of stone it needed to consume to travel allowing it to increase its own velocity.
Sounds of wheezing and running boots could be heard ahead. Valyn grinned, his own footfalls catlike soft and quiet… relatively. He muttered a spell now as he ran… the words quietened. His speed doubled as the incantation was finished. The Haste spell doubled all of his movement abilities, his running speed, reaction time… everything. The next thing he did was trigger his innate shadow-blend ability. This allowed him to blend seemlessly with the shadows he was so attuned to, granting him a level of concealment equal if not superior to an invisibilty spell. Valyn, now moving at exceptional speed, intended to bypass the gnolls he had been tracking from the scene of the attack, allowing his pursuer to hopefully render them to paste while he moved on to locate the lair of te canine curmudgeons… the gnolls.

Lawn Sprinkler In The Sky
Back in September an amazing asteroid flew by in outer space.
It first appeared as a fuzzy dot, seen by a PanSTARRS Survey telescope in Hawaii. Wondering what it was, astronomers directed the Hubble Space Telescope to take a look. Boy, were they surprised. It has six tails!
This is not a normal asteroid. Asteroids are very tiny planets and — until now — they don't have tails. This one is only 700 feet across and is traveling around the sun in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Like it's traveling companions in the Flora asteroid family, its probably a chunk left over from a planetary collision.
So why does it have tails? Comets have tails because they are made of ice, dust and small rocks. When they get near the sun the ice evaporates, causing a long streamer of debris. But this asteroid has no ice. It must be streaming dust. Lots of it.
Scientists named it P/2013 P5 and ran its behavior through modelling software at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research. The model showed this asteroid is spinning so fast that anything loose on the surface (dust) is traveling toward its equator. There it accumulates and episodically escapes the asteroid's weak gravity, arcing into outer space. Yow! Six tails!
Why is it spinning so fast? Scientists theorize that the pressure of sunlight could have pushed P/2013 P5 into a tail spin.
Photos, above, from the Hubble Space Telescope show it spinning like a lawn sprinkler in the sky.

The World's Creativity Without Borders
(PRWEB) March 19, 2014
In honor of the United Nations' celebration of International Women's Month, Multicultural Art and Heritage (MARITAGE) will celebrate its first international gathering on March 28, 2014, at the historical Union League Club on 38 East 37th Street, New York, NY 10016, USA, from 6.30 pm to 9.00 pm. MARITAGE is a global non-profit initiative, led by its founder together with women leaders in MARITAGE participating countries, multisectoral public and private partners, and high level staff volunteers at various International Organizations of United Nations Agencies in Geneva, that addresses poverty alleviation by creating training and employment opportunities for female artisans in developing countries, while taking into account sound business practices emphasizing the well-being of local communities and their cultures.
This event will be hosted by the Founder of MARITAGE and the conceptualizer of the World's Creativity Without Borders movement, Mr. Ludy Suryantoro, along with Mrs. Coumba Touré, President/Chairwoman for MARITAGE and Founder of the Advanced Development for Africa; and Ms. Jeanine Jeo-Hi Kim, the Acting Chair of MARITAGE USA and Founder of the Women & Fashion FilmFest and Girls Film Festival. Ms. Cheryl Wills, award winning news anchor on NY1 and author, will be the Master of Ceremonies of the evening. Attendees to this unique gathering include MARITAGE Honorees the Secretary General of the International Telecommunication Union of the United Nations, Dr. Hamadoun Touré for his contribution to women's empowerment through the Art of Technology and Innovation. MARITAGE also pays tribute to Prof. Jeffrey D. Sachs, high caliber American economist and Director of The Earth Institute at Columbia University for his contribution to women's empowerment through his strong approach of creative economy, and environmental and poverty alleviation. This unique event will also attract high dignitaries of the United Nations and international governments, as well as global influencers of fashion, art, design, academia, business and philanthropy.
This extraordinary gathering will feature several exciting highlights including the World's Creativity Without Borders Exhibition and Fashion Presentation with designs from Reborn Kyoto of MARITAGE Japan, Dame Trelise Cooper of MARITAGE New Zealand, Chossy Latu of MARITAGE Indonesia, Diarra Bousso of MARITAGE Senegal, and Khadeja Al Buhaliqa of MARITAGE Qatar, as well as a tribute to MARITAGE Champions for Fusion of Creativity Dame Trelise Cooper of New Zealand, Champion for Art Dedication and Compassion, Mrs. Masayo Kodama of Japan, President REBORN KYOTO NPO, and our Champion for Knowledge and Education, Ms. Elizabeth Stroble, President of Webster University. These designs represent concrete examples of MARITAGE success stories, such as the story of Dame Trelise Cooper, who through her collaboration with Indian garment artisans fuses creativity to directly contribute to the livelihood of India's poorest community. The story of Mrs. Masayo Kodama's kimonos, REBORN KYOTO, dedicated to empowering women in developing countries for more than 30 years, is another success story. Through MARITAGE's collaboration between Rwanda and Japan, with support from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, survivors of genocide and economically disadvantaged women and young men have received training and are achieving economic independence through 100% silk kimono making. At this event, MARITAGE will also introduce its initiative on the Shawl for All Women – the Women's Journey of Hope, Courage and Wisdom. A Shawl is a powerful, universal symbol that unifies all women from around the globe. Despite diverse cultural backgrounds, every woman in every culture has a common symbol: a Shawl. MARITAGE seeks to wrap and connect all women of the world with a Shawl as a symbol of unity and to interrelate the themes of art, culture, health and motherhood. For further information, please contact Mr. Glenn Pierre at informationmaritage(at)gmail(dot)com.

The complex, the frustrating and the what happens next at Norwich City?
Archant Norfolk
Norwich City writer Michael Bailey surveys the latest public address from the City board, as the relegation inquest continues…
Players tend to produce defining moments on the pitch – but those key figures in other parts of the club have to rely on different arenas. And for Norwich City's directors, that tends to be in interviews or meetings.
For majority shareholders Michael Wynn Jones and Delia Smith, along with chief executive David McNally, history could yet apply that to their public broadcast on Radio Norfolk Monday morning – depending on what happens at the club over the coming months.
There was the chance for some supporters to put forward questions. Sadly, there wasn't the chance for everyone – or any other journalist – to join them in the debate. There's no point hiding the obvious – that strikes me as a huge shame.
It also leaves us to pore over what was said, what it means and inevitably interpreting between the lines.
Firstly, there were the headlines – primarily on where that new Norwich City manager is. After all, he was originally to be appointed by the end of last week. That's not a dig – it was a deadline volunteered by the club in their own statement the previous weekend.
Why is it taking longer – and why has a new manager arriving in a couple of days on Tuesday night continued into a couple of days this Monday morning? All we know is it's "complex", according to Delia. Maybe that's all that can be said while someone like, say, Malky Mackay takes a bit of time over his options. For example. But there we are. These things sometimes take longer than you envisage. It's just hard to be convinced the City board of three years ago would have volunteered an initial time line so readily.
In truth, that was about it for the headline stuff. The rest was reflective – and almost certainly a final addressing of last season's disappointments before all of us look to move on.
And let's be clear – moving on has to be the goal. It was the hangover from the previous season's discontent that probably led to relegation this season. Any such hangover in the Championship, and the Canaries will find themselves more akin to the class of 2005-06 than 1985-86.
Wynn Jones wants to see more youth players given a chance – and that's entirely understandable from any City fan. It's a silver lining and an excitement.
McNally conveyed the right emotions generated from relegation: the frustration and embarrassment. We all felt and feel it. Delia too. We know she gets it.
But possibly the split comes in January – and Delia's unshakeable belief that while the board were wrong not to sack Chris Hughton then, there simply wasn't a candidate to replace him. I'm not so sure everyone shared her view – and arguably, hindsight proved they may well have had someone extremely close at hand to step in. Someone they felt confident enough to give the job to with just five games to go. Sadly football isn't played with hindsight, like it's not played on paper.
A common sentiment across some on social media once yesterday's broadcast was done, was that it was great for the trio of directors to get their word out. And absolutely it beats saying nothing or hiding – especially after such a dispiriting season. Other clubs simply wouldn't countenance the idea.
At the same time, it's hard not to think of the praise former chief executive Neil Doncaster used to garner from similar public exercises.
Once he departed, it became a stick to beat his reign with.
Likewise, the current regime achieved their reputation – and arguably, success – by getting on with the necessaries behind closed doors. By being decisive.
It's a knack they will need to rediscover as soon as possible if next season's push for an immediate Premier League return is to end in Championship success.
But even with directors, it's results on the pitch that will decide how their term is viewed – and where their public views and messages will sit in history.

London (Nov. 2)
General satisfaction with the achievements of the world conference for the relief of German Jews, which concluded here last night, was felt today by Jewish leaders here. The air of doubt which surrounded the opening of the conference in which forty-five of the most important Jewish organizations of Europe and the United States participated, was completely dissipated to be replaced by a strong optimism over the potential possibilities for determined action resulting from the conference's accomplishments and the almost unprecedented united Jewish cooperation.
Dr. Chaim Weizmann, head of the Zionist campaign for the relief of German Jews by settlement in Palestine, indicated that the conference just terminated had laid the gound-work for greater activity in behalf of the German Jews and would be followed by other parleys, although admitting that for the present, activities would be limited solely to relief. Nevertheless, he pointed out, in the long run, charity is not the solution of present Jewish problems.
Leaders from various countries, in the public session which concluded the conference, expressed their satisfaction with the achievements of the conference. Among the speakers were Chief Rabbi Angelo Sacerdoti of Rome, who sharply attacked Nazism as a misconception of Fascism. The latter seeks the unity of all citizens while the former sought to create divisions, he pointed out. Rabbi Lewin, speaking in behalf of the Agudath Israel, orthodox Jewish organization, acclaimed the conference work and Berl Katzenelson, Zionist labor leader, speaking in behalf of the Vaad Leumi, Jewish National Council of Palestine, in a striking address, stressed the importance of Palestine in any scheme as the only country not only able to offer financial assistance to refugees, but also to offer them shelter and means of livelihood. Other speakers at the closing session included representatives of the Swiss Jewish communities, the Polish Zionists, and D. Cohen, representing Dutch Jewry.
In addition to a plan of organization for coordinating relief activities and ensuring the cooperation of Jewish agencies in the various countries in their relief efforts the conference resolved to recommend to the British government the appointment of Lord Robert Cecil, noted statesman, as British member of the autonomous governing body being set up by the League of Nations to direct the relief work on an international scale. Lord Robert's name had been mentioned for the high commissionership to which James G. McDonald of New York was appointed, and more recently, for chairman of the governing body.

Water main break at University Village; 45th Street viaduct reopened
Updated 7:32 am, Wednesday, October 9, 2013
Crews working through the night managed to repair 16-inch water main that ruptured near University Village on Tuesday afternoon.
The flowing water appeared to undermine at least one of the pillars holding up the Northeast 45th Street viaduct running from the University of Washington to the shopping center.
But Seattle transportation officials said the viaduct was sound..
Seattle Public Utilties reported that crews restored service on the 16-inch water main at 2:10 a.m.
Crews had to cut out a 16-foot section of pipe, then put a new section of pipe in its place.
SPU is trying to determine the cause of the break. It noted that the cast-iron pipe is more than 80 years old. The agency said that makes the pipe "middle-aged by local standards."
If you live in the area, you will notice that your water might run brown, which comes from pipe rust and sediment. It's safe to drink, officials said, but advised to run the water until it is clear.
If it remains discolored, let the water sit for an hour. Then run the water again and flush the toilet a couple of times.
Don't use hot water since that will fill your hot-water tank with discolored water.
Be careful if you are washing clothes.
Stop the washer and wait for clean water. Running the washer to completion with the discolored water could stain clothes.
On Tuesday, the broken main closed some streets around University Village, confirmed Andy Ryan, a spokesperson for SPU.
Fire alarms across the UW campus were set off by the sudden drop in water pressure.
The water main is a major one for the city but it was unclear how many water customers were affected, Ryan said.
"It was a lot of water," said Josh Dautremont, who was working at Eureka Burger when the water main broke. "It was hitting the bridge."
The Starbucks nearest the water main was closed but other stores remained open, though with few customers.
No injuries were reported as a result of the incident and none of the water made it into businesses at U Village.
Water flowed through the shopping center's parking lot but sandbags were placed in time to divert the widening lake into drains, where large whirlpools formed.
Moore said suction trucks removed water from the parking lot. Seattle City Light was inspecting electrical service to businesses in the village.
Seattle police were called to the intersection of Northeast 45th Street and 25th Avenue Northeast, several blocks west of the closure, to help with traffic at the scene.
Seattlepi.com reporter Vanessa Ho contributed to this report.

Well, now he really truly is SO big. Just look at him! He is wearing a pair of John's shoes and one of John's belts. How on earth did this happen?
|Do you like his fake smile? He really really did not want me to take a picture, but I insisted. Mother's prerogative. Also, we did fix his tie. It was not askew all night. In case you worried.
However, I did get an exciting text from John as I watched Theo play baseball.
It said, "Walter got MVP for baseball!"
WOW! Before he left, Walt was grumping around a bit, saying that he wasn't going to get any award and why should he go?
Then this.
Now, I know some may think, "It's only a sports award. Big deal. It's only middle school. Big deal."
No way, Jose.
As I may have alluded, Walter is not very keen on our move to Texas. I truly empathize with him: he is the oldest, he is the most established at his school, and he thought that he would be at his current school until he graduates in 2016. So, for him to get his recognition in 8th grade, before we move, in his very favorite sport of all, feels like a pretty big deal. At least to this mama it is, and it made me get a little teary as I read that text.
Thank you, Lord, for encouraging my dear son.
As part of the 8th grade promotion, each student is given a word, a character trait, that the faculty feels best describes him or her. This tradition is unique and meaningful, and gives parents a glimpse into what their child is like away from home. For us, we are so glad that Walter's word describes him at school, for it is an attribute that sometimes feels lacking at home. His word was: willingness. John and I are gratified that his teachers see this in Walter, and we hope that it will come more to the fore as he grows and matures.
We are ever, ever so grateful for Walter's school. Part of the deep pain of leaving here is having to leave a school that has loved Walter and our family so well for the past two years. We were looking forward to many more years together; we will entrust those years to the Lord and watch for what He has for Walter in particular, and for the rest of our dear children.
As I mentioned, Walter is not really one for pictures, but here is one I managed to get* of him with his friend named...Walter. Walter S., no less. In fact, in baseball, the coach had them come up with nicknames so that he could distinguish them, as using the last initial wasn't going to work.
Walter's moniker? Vlad. Don't ask me where that came from, but it really did stick on the baseball team, for two years!
I just about teared up when I was thanking his science teacher, and she told me that she just loves him, and has seen so much growth in him over the last two years.
AHHH! Not ready for the tears to come just yet!
We are proud of that guy, and really, really glad that we get to be his parents.
*Oh, wondering how I snapped a picture when I wasn't at the ceremony? I came at the end to pick up John and Walt, so I had a few minutes to socialize. Problem solved.

|This is a great beta photo. You want to be belaying from where this picture was taken. With a 60 meter rope, you can get all the way to a decent belay at the end of the left crack in the Y in the top of the photo. This is the "body swallowing crack" pitch that you can read about in the comments. You go straight up the steep gully you can see behind the climber in this photo. Look to the top and you can clearly see the left leg of the Y. There you go!

We will be spending 3 nights in Palm Springs and need 3 dinner recommendations in the area...no further than 20 minutes away. Thinking about Copley's, Circa 59 @ The Riviera, Spencer's, Wally's Desert Turtle, etc. Are these good choices? Are there others that are better? Looking for good food, ambiance and service...all are important to us.

London - Jessica Biel took charge in planning her wedding to Justin Timberlake.
The couple tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in Italy last October but Suit & Tie hitmaker Justin admitted he had very little involvement.
He told E! News: " A lot of it was done before October... and I don't know how many of you are married or in a relationship, but I think the men can speak for me by saying that type of process... you really just say 'Whatever you want, honey.'
"Every photo, everything you saw from that event... I was riding shotgun. I said 'Whatever you want, honey'."
Jessica and Justin married in front of more than 100 close friends and family at the plush Borgo Egnazia resort in Puglia, Southern Italy, on October 19 and the actress previously compared their wedding plans to a covert CIA operation as she was obsessed with secrecy.
She said: "You can't really keep a wedding a secret, but we wanted to keep most of it a secret, at least up until it actually happened. So I kind of got quite obsessed with this CIA operative scheme I put in play right before the wedding." - Bang Showbiz

Good Morning!!! What's on your schedule?
Yahoooo it's Mondaily!
SRD for me today. Back to work of course but had a great weekend.
I'll go for a recovery walk today. Day two of DOMs after the HM, and calfs and quads are tender. Traveling for work next two days as well.
Good morning Mile1 & Ray! Sunday: 6 miles 1:02:54 - 10:29 - recovery [stupid easy] A.M. / 4 mile hike & fishing with MAXI / 6 miles 59:24 - 9:55 avg. pace - recovery P.M. Unexpected overnight guest threw off my schedule. SRD anyway. MIDI begins his summer camp @ the Art school today. Run Inspired Masters!
Good Monday Morning.
SRD here, too. Started the day burrowing through the blueberry bushes. I use the term 'bushes' fairly loosely; our blueberries are trying very hard to become trees. One should not be required to use an eight-foot ladder to pick blueberries! Once this season's berries have been gathered I'm going to have to do some heavy-duty pruning.
Will resume running tomorrow, about the same as last week, but need to start focusing on the HM in October.
Wishing everyone a good start to the wee.
Good morning masters
8.2 to begin the day
Surprised to find that I had some legs today. Always a good sign.
Great morning in these parts.
Have a great day friends....work hard
Thanks for the kind words last week
Hi everyone. Happy Monday. Rest day for me. I was able to get 8 miles in yesterday (8:5x) while dd had her field hockey. The little paved trail around the park was about 0.4 miles long, so almost 20 laps was needed. Definitely plays with the mentality. Very busy weekend, so I need the work week to recover. : -) Summer is going quickly!
Morning all,
Sunny and humid here today, going up to high 80s and thunderstorms this afternoon. Hotter tomorrow, I hear.
I will get to the gym for 3-4 miles tonight since it'll be stormy.
I was in Boston for a Sox game over the weekend, so no running at all. Definitely walked a ton. and Red Sox won, woohooooo!
Hi Mile1, Ray, Moth, PoppyOtt, NB4, MySol, and all to follow!
ciao for now,
Good morning Friends! I ran 6 miles this morning. 4 of them were hard track miles. 8x200, 250 walking lunges, 400 meters of bounding high leg plus 400 meters of butt kickers with jogging in between. I got the Nephews wedding behind me and most of my house projects so I'm back in my regular routine for a couple weeks. But extremely busy at work trying to meet a deadline.
Hello MILE, MOTH, POPPY, MYSOL, NIGHT, LIZ and RAY.
Blessings All, Spunky
Hey y'all, my busy month continues as I'm back in central Illinois. I did do the local (Alabama) 5k on Saturday morning which is part of the kickoff to the Handy Festival (WC Handy was born in Florence). Race begins and ends at the Handy Museum. Overcast prior to race start but unfortunately the clouds cleared (then came back after the race....of course). Anyway, course is deceptive. And I went out too fast (surprise!). Wound up 7th OA (I think, may have been 6th) of 160+. Won my AG. But next year I'll in the 50-54 group which in this area is pretty stout. 20:45 for me time-wise, a CR for me by about 5 or 6 seconds. This morning I got up in time to take care of a last bit of cooler temps. Only time for 3.5 miles but they were sub 8. Doubt this evening will be that quick (temps back in the 90s)! Have a great day everyone!
Spunky, first my apologies for how late this is. But it is worth it....
Red Beans and Rice with Turkey Sausage
I modified the recipe from the Oct 2008 issue of RW—Nick's Red Beans and Rice with Turkey Sausage
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
(I'll use 2 peppers, whatever is least expensive or looks/feels best)
1 white onion, chopped (yellow onion works also)
2 cloves garlic, minced (I'll use the garlic press if I'm time limited)
2 Tbsp Olive oil (or Canola if I don't have olive)
12 oz (at least) Turkey sausage cut into ¼" coins
Andouille sausage cut into ¼" coins
2 15 oz cans of red beans
1 15 oz can diced tomatoes
1 tsp thyme
3 bay leaves
Ground black pepper to taste
Red pepper to taste
Cajun seasoning to taste
Hot pepper sauce to taste
Cut the turkey and Andouille sausage. Sear lightly. Set aside. Keep the rendered fat (add the olive oil) and use it to sauté the peppers, onion and garlic (I add a bit of salt) until softened. Drain one can of the red beans, add red beans; use entire contents (including "bean liquid&rdquo from the second can, drain diced tomatoes and add. Add thyme and bay leaves, red pepper, Cajun seasoning. Simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with black pepper and hot sauce. His recipe called to serve over brown rice but I tend to use Jasmine (sticky) white rice.
FALCON - Thank you so much! Since it's supposed to be 104 degrees with hot Kansas wind I might not try it out today. It looks yummy!!
ST today and a rest from running. Front squats, lunges, cable rows, overhead press, core work.
Good afternoon
Glad to be back in town. Hope my fellow masters have been doing well.
FF- yes your tearing your age group up. It's funny how sometimes moving up in a age group can bring more competition. Had I been in the 45 age group instead of 50 I would have won the Pentathlon. That's just the way the competition goes sometimes.
Spunky- good job on some solid work
Nb- Mr consistent, glad the legs felt good
Wolfgate- that's similar to my workout today
Mysol- good 8 yesterday
Ray, Mile1, Poppy- have a good rest day.
Hi, everybody! Hope your week is starting out well. As always, I admire those of you who are hitting 6 and 8 miles today. That still feels reallllly far to me.
No running for me today - spent much of my lunch hour upside down for a Crossfit workout. Started with 300 single unders, then 15 pullups, 30 pushups, 45 squats, and 300 more single unders. Kept a watch on that tender calf, but it made it through okay. Shoulder mobility work, then our WOD today was:
3 accumulated minutes handstand hold
100 air squats
100 "monkey touches" - handstand facing the wall while you touch right hand to left pec, left hand to right pec, etc. Each touch = 1.
100 air squats
30 inverted box pushups
Not sure what to do in terms of my calf. It is stiff and tight despite a lot of rolling and compressing this weekend after the run. However, it is nowhere near as bad as it was when I first injured it - which is pretty good, given I ran six miles on it Saturday. I don't want to hurt it more/again, but I also don't want to be completely sedentary while it heals. Is there merit to walking or run/walking to keep working on my endurance? I don't have another race until August, but I am working to increase gradually my long runs.
Linda, that sounds to me like a very tough workout... it would be much harder for me than 6 to 8 miles of running... depends on what we are used to, I guess. The monkey touches sound hard... What is a single under?
Nice work on your 5k race, FalconFixer... yeah, the 50-54 category is harder than the 45-49 category around here, as well.
I did a bike ride today... 23 miles fairly hilly miles at 18.4 mph avg pace. These days I am working the bike rides harder than the runs. More room for improvement, I guess.
Rcl - a single under is just regular jump roping, whereas in a doubleunder the rope passes under twice for each jump. I have doubleunders...but 100 would take me a long, long time. The WOD called for 100 doubles - and we usually do 3 for 1 singles.
The monkey touches were the hardest part of the workout!! Definitely hardest on the shoulders, LOL.
I may have to get my bike from storage, take it in for service, and do some work on that in addition to the running, to continue increasing my endurance.
We are back home from a great long week-end! Yesterday and still today very sore so we all went for a nice easy 4 hour hike took lots of great pictures and just enjoyed it very much until it was time to walk down, boy did that hurt! We were staying with 3 couples and 2 of us decided we would do our bike ride. The bike ride turned into one of those deals when everything had told you to stay home and you did not listen! 2 flat tires latter we made it back home, greasy and tired! Ended up with about 1 hour and 30 mins of riding and a good 30 mins of changing tires! Good news had a great 1.5 mile open water swim this evening that felt very good!
RCL: Nice 12 miles, bike and sailing is a great combo! Ang it is always good when on one get seasick!
Poppy Ott: Nice 5.67
Liney: Nice 5, safe travels!
Moth A: Nice 6's and 4
TRRP: Nice double
George: Nice 16.1, and still a great pace for a LR! The good news is GREAT!
Mile 1: Thanks for the start! Nice spin and hope the walk helped
Rocket: Nice 2.38
NB: Nice job on your 8.2! Even better job with your and Mrs NB ride!
N8: Bike ride was a adventure
Mysol: Nice 8
Spunky: Nice 6
FF: Nice work, safe travels!
Fittes: Nice work over the week-end. did you see our team in the 4x800 Without Limits!
Howdy Masters!
SRD for me - not feeling well today. Struggling with dizziness from BP/medication issues. I will call the DR tomorrow if this persists. My BP is lower than it has ever been (a little bit too low). I may or may not go for a walk later.
My apologies for no personals...
Have a great evening All Masters!
Rocket - hope you feel better soon.
Went on my first long(ish) run in months & it felt so glorious!
6 miles easy pace
Definitely back on track to racing longer events again!!!

This is the ninth year for All-Metro teams selected by The Eagle, recognizing the best high school athletes in team sports throughout Sedgwick, Butler and Harvey counties.
Last month, Eagle high school beat writer Joanna Chadwick sent nomination ballots to all basketball coaches at the 40 high schools in Sedgwick, Butler and Harvey counties.
Coaches were asked to return the ballots with nominations of the best players within those counties that they saw this season, including their own players.
Chadwick selected the team after tabulating nominations, her own evaluation of players and additional input from coaches.
6-2, fr., South
Elliott, who had an offer from Wichita State before entering high school, helped lead South to a 24-1 record, the Class 6A title and City League title. South last won state and league titles in 1978. Elliott was a force in the lane, averaging 14 points and 13 rebounds.
5-6, sr., Garden Plain
Heimerman, a two-time All-Metro selection, led Garden Plain to the Class 3A title game and a 24-2 record. Heimerman's quickness caused opponents problems because she used that speed to get to the rim or get a steal. She averaged 14 points, six assists and four rebounds.
6-3, sr., Newton
Lehman, who has signed with Wichita State for volleyball, led Newton (20-5) to third in Class 5A. Lehman used her height to alter shots, but she also had an uncanny knack for blocking shots. She averaged 13 points, 11 rebounds, four blocks and led the Class 5A tourney with 35 rebounds and eight blocks.
5-11, sr., Maize
Lungwitz, who led the Eagles (21-4) to the Class 6A tourney for the fourth straight season, is a two-time All-Metro selection. Lungwitz's versatility was her strength, but she also could take over games with a well-timed basket or steal. She averaged 15 points and shot 85.4 percent from the line. She has signed with Pittsburg State.
5-8, sr., Heights
Palmer, a two-time All-Metro selection, led Heights to the Class 6A title game despite being the No. 7 seed. Palmer, who played in three straight 6A title games, has signed with Missouri State. Palmer's ballhandling skills were her strength and she averaged 16 points. She also averaged 4.1 steals, 3.2 assists and 3.1 rebounds.
South coach
Scales, in his second season, led the Titans to the Class 6A title with a 24-1 record, the program's first title since 1978. South also won a share of the City League title, their first since 1978. Scales, who took over a program coming off three straight losing seasons, did it with a starting lineup consisting of two freshmen, a sophomore and two juniors.

India vs England 2012, 2nd Test: Cheteshwar Pujara props up India with second consecutive ton
Last Updated: Saturday, November 24, 2012, 09:11
Cheteshwar Pujara
Monty Panesar
India vs England 2012
cricket news
Mumbai: Cheteshwar Pujara cracked his second consecutive Test century as India recovered from a precarious situation to restore the balance in the second cricket Test against England here on Friday.
Pujara, who had scored a double century in the first match, notched up his third Test century to remain unbeaten on 114 on a turning track at the Wankhede Stadium and steered the hosts to a far more comfortable 266 for six at close on an eventful opening day.
Pujara found an able ally in Ravichandran Ashwin (60 batting) as the duo put on unfinished 97-run partnership for the seventh wicket to bail them out after the hosts were reeling at 119 for five at one stage.
Barring Pujara and Ashwin, none of the batsman in the star-studded line-up could make an impression on a track that started turning from the second session onwards and which was exploited by left-arm spinner Monty Panesar who claimed four wickets.
Coming to the crease after the second ball dismissal of Gautam Gambhir, the 25-year-old Pujara kept one end going by showing superb judgement against the spinning ball to pull India out of a deep hole after the home team opted to bat first on winning the toss.
Pujara stayed for just over six hours in which he had faced 279 balls and struck ten fours. Ashwin faced 84 for his valuable knock.
Pujara came into the game on the back of his unbeaten knocks of 206 and 41 in the two innings of the opening Test at Ahmedabad, which fetched him the Man of the Match award and paved the way for his team`s comprehensive nine-wicket victory.
Panesar, who took four for 91 by the end of the day`s day, was played with a lot of assurance by Pujara.
It was the Rajkot-born youngster's third 100-plus knock in his last four Test matches, having scored a maiden century (159) against New Zealand in August.
Pujara, who has been dismissed only in the warm-up game for Mumbai A after making 87, continued to prosper against the visitors with his exemplary concentration and shot selection.
He gave one chance, when on 60, when he edged Panesar but James Anderson could not latch on to it.
When on 94, England needlessly appealed against him for a catch at midwicket, which was referred to the third umpire and the replays showed the ball had bounced in front of the short leg fielder.
The early part of the day belonged to England who sent back Gambhir (4), Virender Sehwag (30) -- in his 100th Test -- Sachin Tendulkar (8), Virat Kohli (19) and Yuvraj Singh (0).
Barring Gambhir and Yuvraj, who fell to Anderson and Graeme Swann, the others were dismissed by Panesar.
Pujara and captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who mixed caution with aggression before becoming Panesar's fourth victim for 29, put on a partnership of 50 runs in 128 balls.
England's hopes of slicing through the Indian tail, though, came to naught with Ashwin scoring his second fifty.
With some more batting to come in the form of Harbhajan Singh -- drafted into the eleven as the third spinner after more than a year's gap -- Zaheer Khan and Pragyan Ojha, India would fancy their chances of taking the score past 300.
In the morning and soon after lunch, England applied the screws on India and made the hosts struggle on a turning track on which the ball gripped the surface and also bounced.
Panesar, who was left out of the first Test, was the destroyer-in-chief, with a splendid spell of 23 overs on either side of lunch for the wickets of Sehwag, Tendulkar and Kohli before coming on for another spell for the wicket of Dhoni.
Anderson and off-spinner Swann packed off Gambhir (4) and Yuvraj (2) in two balls apiece.
Gambhir, who flicked Anderson to midwicket off the first
ball, missed the next to be rapped in front.
After pushing India on the back foot in the pre-lunch session, England continued the good work with a two-wicket burst in successive overs in the first hour of the post-lunch session.
Panesar, who sent back Sehwag and Tendulkar in successive overs before lunch, got his third victim by dismissing Kohli.
After disturbing the stumps of Sehwag and Tendulkar with sharply turning balls, Panesar induced Kohli to attempt a drive with a ball that drifted in and turned big on pitching to take the leading edge for Nick Compton to bring off a good diving catch.
Kohli had cover-driven the left-arm bowler and his spin partner Swann for attractive boundaries in successive overs before he was lured by the crafty Sikh.
The slow bowler made the ball drift in to the right-handers and extracted sharp turn off the track.
He could have had the confident-looking Pujara too when the batsman, batting on 60 in a team score of 135 for five, edged the bowler to the left of Anderson who could not latch on to the catch at short gully.
Had it been taken India would have been in deeper trouble.
Prior to this slice of luck Yuvraj, who made 74 on his Test comeback in Ahmedabad, had departed for a second-ball duck, clean bowled by Swann. Swann had been brought on for a new spell by skipper Alastair Cook soon after the left-hander arrived at the crease, and the move paid off.
The hosts lost these two wickets in successive overs for the addition of just one run to be tottering at 119 for five and the loss of Pujara, easily the best Indian batsman against the turning ball in this match, would have been a major blow to their hopes of putting up a fighting total.
Dhoni came to the crease and started to attack the two
spinners with his drives and cuts.
He was lucky on 22 in a score of 149 for five when he stepped out against Swann, missed a big heave but luckily the ball clipped the top of his pad and got deflected before wicketkeeper Matt Prior could stump the batsman.
Dhoni was later out, caught off the gloves in the close-in cordon, off Panesar. Pujara and Ashwin, however, held fort.
Even the second new ball, taken after 80 overs, did not benefit England.
Pujara pulled Anderson for a four to complete his 100 in 248 balls, before Ashwin struck the bowler for three fours in an over to race to 50 in 67 balls.
The off-spinner has hit a century at this ground an year ago, against the West Indies.

Dhaka, May 12 (Reuters): The Bangladesh government is putting no pressure on former Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia to go into exile and she can resume political activity when the state of emergency is lifted, a government spokesman said today.
Senior members of Khaledas Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and local media had earlier said the interim government, working to complete electoral reforms and hold new elections, had been trying to persuade her to go into exile.
There is no pressure on Khaleda to go into exile. Khaleda and (her rival Sheikh) Hasina will be able to do political activities like others when the emergency is lifted, top government spokesman Fahim Munaim told a weekly news briefing.
The emergency will be lifted when the situation improves, Munaim added, without giving details.
The state of emergency was imposed in January in the wake of widespread violence between supporters of Khaleda and Hasina, who alternated as Prime Ministers for 15 years until 2006. A January 22 election was cancelled and political activity banned.
The army-backed interim administration has since detained scores of politicians including Khaledas son Tarique Rahman in an anti-graft drive that has also targeted the two leaders.
Khaleda, who according to media reports had been virtually confined to her home since April 1, left her house yesterday for the first time in more than a fortnight to meet a visiting former US congressman. She avoided any comment after her dinner meeting with Gregory Laughlin at the home of a senior BNP leader in Dhaka. Laughlin said they discussed the current situation in Bangladesh, but did not elaborate.
Hasina visited the headquarters of her Awami League party amid tight security today, her first visit there since January.
She went to pay her respects after an office assistant died of asthma at a Dhaka hospital last night.
Hasina received party leaders at her home on Thursday and has been out to visit a relative, her associates said.
The government eased restrictions on the two women earlier this week after accusations that they had been placed under virtual house arrest. But reporters have not been allowed to meet them, though security officials have given no reason.
Local media earlier reported that Khaleda, under government pressure, had agreed to go into exile in Saudi Arabia in exchange for the release of her son. Khaleda was believed to have changed her mind later.
Hasina, while abroad on holiday last month, was briefly barred from returning to Bangladesh for security reasons. The ban was lifted and she returned to Dhaka from London last week.
Strategic partner
A US security delegation has asked President George Bush to make the South Asian country a high priority strategic partner in Americas foreign and national security policies.

Darren Fletcher: Slip-ups may cost Manchester United the title
Darren Fletcher has warned Manchester United must start to learn from their mistakes if they are to avoid serious damage to their Premier League title challenge.
Having spent so many seasons dishing out last-gasp defeats to their rivals, Sir Alex Ferguson 's side were on the receiving end as Everton fought back from 3-1 down on Saturday to snatch a draw with injury-time goals from Tim Cahill and Mikel Arteta .
In their only other away game this season, United saw Fulham's Brede Hangeland earn a 2-2 draw with an 89th-minute header – moments after Nani had missed a penalty.
Those four points are the difference between the third-placed Red Devils and the leaders and defending champions Chelsea – the only side with a 100 per cent record so far.
It may be early days but Fletcher knows allowing winning positions to slip from their grasp will become costly.
'We should have learned from the Fulham game and we didn't,' said the Scotland midfielder, who got his side back into the game with a close-range volley just before half-time to cancel out Steven Pienaar's opener.
'We really have to learn from this game if we want to win the league,' added Fletcher, whose side took a two-goal advantage through Nemanja Vidic and Dimitar Berbatov before the Bulgarian and Nani spurned subsequent chances to wrap up the three points.
'You've got to keep taking your chances and really finish the game off. These are moments you can look back on and say, "That should have been three points".'
Fletcher, though, was adamant the late lapses should not be viewed as a sign of weakness.
The 26-year-old said: 'There is no vulnerability, it is just simple mistakes which we need to eradicate quickly.'

I really don't want to waste a lot of time in a review of the new Verizon Motorola Droid comparing it to the iPhone. Let's get that topic out of the way by listing a few of Droid's killer features that should catch your attention and put iPhone on the alert:
Now, let's forget about the iPhone and take a look at an exciting, new product on the market that you may want to call your new pocket pal. The Motorola Droid comes loaded with the latest iteration of the Google Android 2.0 operating system. Before we take a look under the hood, let's walk around the chassis and kick the tires.
First a quick word about packaging and what's in the box. This will be a short discussion because the Droid comes barebones in a box that barely covers it. Nothing fancy here. You get a phone, a charger, a USB cable, and a 16 GB micro SD card plus a quick start pamphlet and warranty information-not even a CD.
I remember the good old days when no self-respecting PDA would come without some CDs, a printed manual, a cradle, a charger, sometimes a car charger, a sync cable, an extra stylus, and a carrying case. Those days are long gone.
On the top, we have a standard 3.5 mm audio jack, which is good instead of a goofy, proprietary clunker adapter that takes up half the real estate. On the right top corner is the power switch that will, when held down, allow you to power off completely, run in airplane or silent mode, which is a handy feature.
Right side top sports the volume control rocker switch. I find this protuberance a bit annoying because you have to be careful not to hit it with your thumb when also engaging the power switch or when just holding the device. This can result in turning off the volume inadvertently and missing calls. Placement could be better or at least less sensitive. Also, it is kind wobbly and flimsy plastic, unlike the rest of the presentation. Why not give it a more classy appearance like the substantial camera activation button below it, which is a flashy gold guy?
There's nothing on the bottom edge. On the left side, there is a port for the micro-USB cable. It bugs me that the developers chose to use a non-standard adapter instead of the more predominate mini-USB port. It means that I have to take yet another cable and charger with me when I travel. What a bother.
On the back, we have the impressive 5 MPX camera lens with dual LED flash and the battery cover. There is no little mirror for self portraits, which would have been welcome as I indulge in so many self-portraits. :-) The battery cover easily slides off to reveal the 1400mAh battery. In fact, the battery cover slides off all too easily. I have found it separated from the phone in my pocket. You must remove the battery to insert the micro SD card, which is another bother. It comes with a 16 MB card--nice. Also on the back is a gold colored speaker grill just south of the battery cover.
The face of the Droid sports an ample 3.7 inch touch screen (854 x 480). Note that the iPhone screen is 480 x 320. I can already hear iPhonies chortling that the Droid doesn't have two-finger pinch zoom or whatever they call it. Well, my immediate response is who cares? Nose mining iPhonies need two fingers to perform something that can be done with the tap of a single finger on a Droid, which I consider twice as efficient.
However, if you must have two-finger zoom on your Droid, no problem. Just install the free app called Dolphin Browser, and you've got it. But now zooming becomes not just a two finger operation, it is a two handed operation. Try holding your PDA and zooming with two fingers in one hand. Ha!
One problem with this touch screen as far as I'm concerned is that you cannot use a stylus for precision pointing like you can on a Windows Mobile device. This is unfortunate, and I wish it were an option.
You can set the screen to shift automatically from portrait to landscape when you tilt the screen or slide out the keyboard.
I found the screen to be brilliant, crisp, clear, and a joy to behold for all viewing situations.
Below the screen are four flush buttons that light up when needed. To the left is a Back button that takes you to the previous operation. Next comes a menu button, which is context sensitive. After that is the Home button that will take you to your Home desktop screen from anywhere in any application for easy navigation. Finally, on the right, is the Search button.
Let me note that a single tap on the search button brings up a Google search box with recent search listed below it for convenience. When you tap on the search box, the screen keyboard automatically pops up whether in portrait or landscape mode. The on screen keyboard does not pop up if you already have the physical keyboard out. Holding down the search button brings up the speech search screen.
Pushing the 123 key brings up a numerical keypad plus a whole slew of punctuation marks. Pushing the Alt key brings up a panel full of symbols for your convenience.
In the horizontal orientation, the keyboard is even bigger and easier to use. I have to say that, in comparison, the iPhone keyboard is a total disaster. What I really do not like about the on screen keyboard on the Droid is that there is no way that I have discovered to backspace without deleting characters, which is a major annoyance when you need to correct typos. It's a good thing I never make any mistakes. Remember that there's no way to use a stylus like you can with a Windows Mobile device for precision pointing.
On the pullout physical keyboard, it is easy to back up to correct typos or make insertions because it has a five-way navigation button. The pullout keyboard works pretty much the same way the on screen keyboard works including the hold down key for diacritical markings. I can attest that it works great for German, French, and Spanish, and do doubt many other languages as well.
The search button on the keyboard allows you to search the Web for the term you just typed in context. Wow!
What I don't like about the pullout keyboard is the problem of discerning one key from another. The keyboard is completely flat so that it is difficult to differentiate one key from another. This unfortunate feature makes typos more rampant because it is easy to depress more than one key at once. It drives me crazy. But then I do tend to have bear paws and a more delicate fingered person may not have any difficulty. It will take some getting used to for sure, but I do appreciate the option.
I find I make more mistakes trying to use the pullout keyboard in my hands. I make fewer mistakes when I lay it on a flat surface. Frankly, I actually prefer to use the onscreen in-putter at this point. I also like to be able to use just one hand sometimes when making short entries.
In my preliminary testing, all the apps performed as expected with a few exceptions worth noting. For instance, In Photos or Picasa, I was unable to get any of my movies or slide shows to play, yet YouTube and other videos performed admirably. This was disappointing.
One of the first challenges in setting up any new machine is to get all your contact and calendar or PIM data ported over to the new device. If you are connected to a Microsoft server through your company, this is no problem on a Droid. For those of us who are not hooked to a server, there is a challenge. I solved it by setting up my Gmail and Google calendar to sync with my Outlook data. Then it was a simple matter to get Droid to sync with my Gmail accounts, and all the data pours in automatically and continually.
Google Maps is so good that I will not even miss some of my favorite third party navigation applications now that there is turn by turn voice and self-correcting navigation should you make a wrong turn. You can turn on satellite view to see actual pictures of where you are as you travel. You can layer data such as restaurants, gas stations, and cultural attractions. Note, iPhone users, that this is a completely free service-no fees required.
There is even a brilliant little app you can download from the Google store (Market) called Google Goggles. This fun but functional software allows you to search by taking a picture of what you want to find whether it be a monument, a book, DVD, landmark, logo, business card, product, barcode, or just some text.
Of course Google maps will get you to the place you search for if you wish. If it's a business you don't even have to take a picture, just point your Droid at the business, and it will pop up on the screen with all the particulars. Brilliant. Pretty soon it may even work with people. Heh...
Google Search is totally integrated into Droid from anywhere. You can use the traditional text input box or you can simply talk and it will find whatever you wish. It really works, and it's not only useful but fun. I have to keep reminding myself to use it. I'm amazed every time I do.
I really like the fact that the new Google Tasks is integrated into the Gmail menu now. However, I was disappointed that Google Docs will not allow editing of Word Docs although it is possible to edit Excel spreadsheets. I wish this could be fixed.
Then I tapped on the Market icon on the desktop, and a whole new world opened up to me. It is Google's answer to the iTunes store where there are already over 20,000 applications in almost any category you can imagine waiting for you to download. Most of them are free. Those that cost money are more than reasonable. Many are only $.99. I'm used to Windows Mobile applications costing $25 to $50, but maybe you get what you pay for. In truth, I've experienced some apps that do not perform as expected and have very poor technical support. But most work admirably.
What a lot of fun I've been having discovering new apps and installing them. It's an entirely different experience for me than what I'm used to in a Windows Mobile environment. Apps from the Droid store download instantly and install seamlessly directly into the device. With Windows Mobile you usually download the app to the mother ship and then sync your device to the desktop to install, which is a lot of bother in comparison.
The Market is restricted to software applications. For tunes, Droid has a deal with Amazon where you can go with a tap of a widget and get instant downloads for a fee. However, there is software available that allows you to sync your iTunes playlist and other media already on your hard drive including photos to your Droid. Downloads from Amazon are over the air and convenient.
Unlike most digital cameras, the Droid screen doesn't turn into a black obsidian mirror in the sunlight. You can still see an image quite well for framing a shot. Way to go!
I have found no acceptable method of taking screenshots on the Droid. This is lamentable and critical for a reviewer, and I need to find a solution without having to hack the operating system. For instance, I would have liked to share some screen shots in this review. Any suggestions?
Unfortunately, I have been unable to find an application that will display the Droid screen on my desktop and allow screen capture, file transfers, and the use of the mouse and desktop keyboard on the Droid.
Perhaps I haven't discovered this missing app yet, and I would appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction. Otherwise, here is a great opportunity for any aspiring developers out there.
I got really excited with the possibility of adding content to folders as a means of organizing applications and files and saving screen space. However, I discovered that the items you put in the folder count as items you would put on the screen. Boo hoo.
It's very easy to place and remove icons on the home screen. To put an item on the screen, simply press on a blank area where you want the icon to appear and select it from a list that pops up. To remove an item, press it to highlight it and then drag it to the slider tab at the bottom of the screen, which turns into a trash can.
At the bottom of the screen is a tab that you can slide up to reveal a scrolling screen containing all of your installed applications. It is similar to hitting the Programs button on a Windows Mobile device.
It's always a good idea to pack a spare battery, which I highly recommend. I've already noted that the battery cover tends to slip off easily and could be a tighter fit. It's nothing that an ugly piece of duct tape won't cure, but I hope Motorola has a better solution.
In the future, I would like to see an SD card slot that is accessible without having to remove the battery.
I would prefer next time around that the touch buttons on the touch panel at the bottom of the screen be actual physical buttons so that they are not so easily and accidentally depressed. While we're at it, the volume control should be more substantial and not so easily activated.
The things I would like to see improved or added to the Droid include the following:
Yes, iPhone should indeed dread the Droid.

Discussion in 'Test, test' started by mdm248111, 19 Aug 2009.
Which is your favorite?
None of the above...
I eat only Ribeye (Delmonico) and mesquite grilled prime rib...
oh..that was the one I was forgetting
I prefer NY Strip.
Any meat...grilled till you can't tell what it is.
or just settle for a slice of pizza
Ewww! Why not just munch on a plate of charcoal and be done with it?
I like tender meat, which can occur only two ways. Either grilled medium-rare, or boiled into submission!
The rib eye steak, or ribeye, is a beef steak from a cow's rib section. When cut into steaks, the rib eye is one of the most popular (and flavorful) steaks on the market. Meat from the rib section is tender and fattier (the meat is said to be "marbled") than other parts of the cow. This extra fat makes rib eye steaks and roasts especially tender and flavorful.
The New York strip steak, is cut off of the back of the cow from the strip loin, the strip steak consists of a muscle that does little work, and so it is particularly tender. Unlike the nearby filet mignon, the New York strip loin is a sizable muscle, allowing it to be cut into the larger portions favored by many steak eaters.
This is the best way to cook meat and be entertained at the same time.Watch video
Absolutely, positively do NOT go to this website if you are hungry!
Most especially do not watch the cooking videos!
not many veggies here!
1) I tried in the advanced settings to remove the poll...didn't see anything
2) Why are people digging it up after over 2 years?!
4) We need a mod to remove it,
Sorry, missed your shout for me . I have now closed the poll.
HEY! i'm a vegetarian! seriously! now let me vote!

Last week, as the new college football season was getting close to truly starting, the usual stories of renewal and looking forward to the coming season were coming being published. This AP story on Penn State trying to go forward, for instance.
"I think that is the ultimate challenge here," Penn State coach James Franklin told The Associated Press. "How do you balance the history, the traditions, all the wonderful things that are deep rooted here and have been here forever, (while) also making moves that you need to be progressive and to be moving towards a healthy present and a healthy future."
Oh, how Franklin wants to move on. So many do at Penn State.

Big Stage Partners With VIDiGREET
Los Angeles-based Big Stage Entertainment, a USC spinoff developing avatar technology, announced a new effort to provide its technology to third parties. Big Stage said it has created BackStage, which will offer its 3D face modeling technology to clients and partners. The firm said that it has signed on fellow Los Angeles startup VIDiGREET as its first client. VIDiGREET--a provider of funny, short greeting card videos--will use Big Stage's technology to allow users to send personalized video greetings. Financial terms of the partnership were not disclosed. The new deal means that users on VIDiGREET will be able to insert themselves into the firm's funny video postcards. Big Stage is venture backed by Mission Ventures, Selby Ventures, and the Tech Coast Angels; the firm's technology was developed at the University of Southern California. VIDiGREET is an online video greeting service started by Jeff Gorman, who created Michael Jordan's first Nike TV commercial, several award-winning SUperbowl commercials, and was formerly at Chiat/Day.

Bill Denbrough awoke with a scream.
The noise was loud enough to wake up Audra, too, who had been sleeping without disturbance next to him on the bed. She turned on the lamp on the small table beside her. Dim light flooded the room, illuminating Bill's face, which was stark white and haggard. His eyes burned a feverishly vivid blue as he searched the room, looking for something unknown to her and, by the desperate look on his face, the majority of the sane world. Finally, reality seemed to catch up with him. He closed his eyes and slid against the headboard as if exhausted.
"Is everything alright?" Audra asked. Bill looked over at her, startled, aware for the first time that she was even there.
"Nothing. Just another nightmare." It sounded more like he was trying to assure himself than comfort her.
"Another nightmare," Audra repeated wearily. "I know you're not going to want to hear this, Bill, but I'll be glad when that movie is finally finished. I think it's been exhausting you."
"That must be it," Bill said, without much conviction.
"Well, you need to stop worrying yourself over it. With such a brilliant director, I'm sure it will be a blockbuster." She leaned forward and kissed him gently. Bill favored her with an "awe-shucks" grin, but traces of fear were still apparent in his eyes.
"It's nothing special."
"Don't be humble," Audra replied. "You put your heart and soul into that script. Don't think I didn't notice. You were so moody, and up at all hours of the night..."
Bill's smile faded considerably. Except you don't remember that, do you, Billy boy? No, he didn't. In fact, the six months he spent writing the script was a blank black gap, and the year-and-a-half of directing and filming was even worse. "I think I'll be glad when it's over, too."

MORE than half of all child car seats checked by Caerphilly Council's Trading Standards department were found to have failed a safety test.
A team of experts from the council carried out 100 free safety checks at a recent event at the Asda store in Caerphilly but found 53 per cent to have at least one fault.
The news comes after the council announced it is offering free child seat safety tests to families across the borough to ensure their children are travelling safely.
Many of the safety faults with the seats were found to be minor and easily rectified, including incorrectly adjusted harnesses.
Councillor David Poole, cabinet member for community and leisure services, said: "With just a little extra knowledge parents can ensure their children are safe during car journeys and hopefully these checks will help prevent injuries in the future."
Parents can also check their car seat at Morrisons store in Bargoed on Friday, August 15, between 9.30am and 4pm. For more information call 01495 235 291.

Thief stole £15m Shakespeare first folio to sell 'for love debts'
A thief who mutilated a £15million Shakespeare first folio tried to sell it after running up debts of £90,000 over his infatuation with a woman, a court heard yesterday.
Raymond Scott, 53, is accused of stealing the 390-year-old collection of plays from a locked cabinet at the Pallas Green Museum at Durham University in 1998.
Ten years later, he allegedly took it to experts in America posing as a wealthy businessman. In truth, he was living off benefits and deep in debt after sending money to a woman in Cuba.
Although pages were missing and the boards it had been bound in were pulled off, the book was still valued at £1million.
But his alleged plot was uncovered when experts identified it as the stolen book. One was quoted in court as saying it was 'a cultural legacy that has been damaged, brutalised and mutilated.'
Described as 'the most important book in the English language', it was published in 1623 and was one of only 228 thought to still be in existence.
After Scott allegedly stole the book, he was said to have deliberately damaged it so it could not be traced.
In June 2008, he took it to the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, saying he wanted it identified. But prosecutor Robert Smith QC said. 'The truth was he lived in a house at 3 Widgeon Close, Washington – not DC, but Tyne and Wear, with his mother.'
Scott denies theft, handling stolen goods and removing criminal property from Britain. The case, at Newcastle Crown Court, continues.

Permethrin: Odorless Clothing Repellent As Effective As 100% DEET
When it comes to wearing insect repellents, the industry has it all backwards. Most of us, when protecting ourselves from insects will rush to a skin repellent. But the truth is, you can treat your clothing with a repellent first, only then having to protect the limited areas of exposed skin with a skin repellent, limiting your exposure to the harsh chemicals. Sawyer Permethrin, is engineered to be an odorless barrier of insect repellent that is proven as effective as 100% DEET. Sawyer Permethrin was developed from, and is the artificial analog of, naturally occurring pyrethrum from chrysanthemum flowers. Simply put, it is an odorless preventative repellent that also kills ticks and mosquitoes on contact and it remains proficient in all clothing up to six washings.
Sawyer Permethrin repellents are specially formulated so not to stain or damage your clothing, other fabrics, gear and equipment, including plastics or finished surfaces. It's odorless after drying, and one application to your clothing can last up to 6 washings. Permethrin was created to chemically bond itself to the fabric fibers as a part of the drying process. This unique fiber bonding allows the Permethrin molecules to keep on working to defend you, even through the roughest days outdoors and with repeated washings.
Although Lyme disease accounts for the majority of diagnosed tick-borne disease cases, there are several other important illnesses that can be transmitted from a tick bite. In the United States, more insect-borne diseases are transmitted by ticks than by any other insect. A bloodthirsty tick can carry many different pathogens, including bacteria, rickettsia, viruses, protozoa and parasites; and Sawyer Permethrin is engineered to kill every known species of tick in the world.
Are you camping in a nylon (synthetic) tent or under mosquito netting? Be sure to treat bedding or tent netting, flaps and zippers with a Sawyer Permethrin spray to keep flying and crawling insects away at night.
Before your next hunting or fishing trip, or before your next great adventure; protect yourself from insect-borne diseases by using a Sawyer Permethrin repellent.

Though New Orleans Hornets rookie forward Anthony Davis has been cleared for contact work and practiced Monday at the New Orleans Arena, Hornets Coach Monty Williams is not sure if Davis will make his much anticipated return from a left ankle injury Tuesday night against the Washington Wizards.
Regardless if he plays Tuesday, Davis' return likely will come sometime this week with Davis ramping up his conditioning work to prepare, according to Williams.
But Williams said he wasn't sure Monday if Davis had met the final clearance that involves testing the strength level in his ankle. Davis, the No. 1 overall pick in the June NBA draft, missed 11 consecutive games because of a stress reaction in his left ankle.
"I'm not sure if he has to take another test today, tomorrow or has already taken it,'' Williams said. "He's been cleared for contact and is ramping up his conditioning. He practiced a little bit, but again (we) have to wait until tonight or tomorrow to see how he feels. He has been working with Coach Carlos (Daniel).''
Williams said after Saturday night's 106-90 loss to the Miami Heat they would get Davis back sometime this week. Davis, who was not made available to the media Monday, has not played since a Nov. 17 road game against the Milwaukee Bucks when he sprained his left ankle. Since Davis has been out, the Hornets have lost nine of 11 games. At 5-14, New Orleans has the worst record in the Western Conference and they go into Tuesday night's game on a three-game losing streak. Playing in just six games, Davis has averaged 16 points and 8.3 rebounds.
"We definitely want him to come back,'' guard Greivis Vasquez said. "I'm not a trainer, but he definitely wants to play. It's so hard for him to sit with the suit on and watch games. I would be surprised if he plays Tuesday.''
