The Game, Fish & Parks Department is reminding campers that the end of the summer doesn't mean the end of camping at South Dakota state parks as the parks will continue taking camping reservations throughout the winter months.
"We now take reservations for stays year-round," said state park director Doug Hofer. "In the past, camping was on a first-come, first-served basis after Labor Day."
Campsites and cabins at Custer State Park can be reserved up to one year in advance, and up to 90 days prior to arrival at all other campsites and cabins.
Group campsites located at Custer State Park and Lewis and Clark Recreation Area can also be booked one year in advance. Group lodges that can be reserved one year ahead of time include:
• Lake Thompson Recreation Area near Lake Preston
• Mina Lake Recreation Area near Aberdeen
• Newton Hills State Park near Canton
• Oahe Downstream Recreation Area near Fort Pierre
• Palisades State Park near Garretson
• Shadehill Recreation Area near Lemmon
• Sheps Canyon Recreation Area on Angostura Reservoir near Hot Springs
Camping reservations can be made online at www.campsd.com or by calling 1-800-710-2267.

Recently I searched for some of the bottlings that made it to top 3 in their own category. I wasn't able to find any mention of rare & old ledaig 1976 apart from whiskymag.com. I was able to locate bottles of rare & old ledaig 1975 however.
Is this a typo in the article or has the bottling not been sold anywhere yet?

We will get our first look tonight at Tampa Bay Lightning left wing Mattias Ritola
All anyone has said about Tampa Bay Lightning left wing Mattias Ritola since he was claimed off waivers from the Red Wings is that his skill level is off the charts. We will get our first look Saturday night, when he plays his first game of the season against the Panthers.
Ritola, 23, has watched from the press box and watched lots of video trying to put the Lightning's system into his head. But watching and playing are two very different things, and coach Guy Boucher is not expecting Ritola to be a standout.
"Right now, as far as the collective part of things, he's going to have trouble," Boucher said. "He hasn't had one game with us. It took everybody five games to figure out what to do, so he's going to be all over the place. We know that."
To ease the transition, Boucher said he will make sure he plays Ritola with veteran guys who "know what they're doing." Conventional wisdom says that will be with center Nate Thompson and Adam Hall. But Boucher hinted that he could construct a line with center Dominic Moore and Ryan Malone. if he does that, there will be other moves as well. We'll just have to wait and see.
Either way, Ritola said, "I'm ready to go out there now. I can see how he wants us to play. It's good. We're a fast team. All over the ice it's go, go, go.I like it. I like it a lot. It's a good way to play hockey."
And Ritola can play, Boucher said. "He's got tremendous skill. Not just good skill, tremendous skill. He's got incredible vision and he's really picking up his work ethic since the first day, and you could see today he was really driving out there" during the morning skate."
Gary Roberts update: As you probably know, the Stars hired former Lightning wing Gary Roberts as a player development consultant. That question is whether Roberts, a fitness guru, will be able to continue his summer workout programs with Lightning stars Steven Stamkos and wing Steve Downie. Both players swear by Roberts' methods. In fact, Roberts gets a lot of credit for helping Stamkos become the second-season phenom he was. Stars spokesman Rob Scichili, in a tex message, wrote that because Roberts is a concultant, "this Stars deal will not affect him doing side things with other players. He can continue to do so if he likes."
Parking lot football: Players are always doing things to get loose before games, practices or skates. The Lightning, like most teams, play a lot of soccer in arena hallways. Left wing Sean Bergenheim talked about a continuous handball competition of which he is currently the team champ. But things were a bit different Saturday as most of the media parking lot was taken up with a shirts and skins game of modified football being played by the Lightning before the morning skate. Defenseman Randy Jones described the rules as Ultimate Frisbee with a football. "It's better than doing stretching," defenseman Randy Jones said. "That was fun." It also probably will be a rarity. The Bank Atlantic Center is one of the few arenas that has a parking lot that is so accessible. Also, the weather was perfect. It was somewhat of a new experience for Bergenheim, who admitted that in his native Finland American football "isn't the biggest sport." And Jones joked Bergenheim was the team's ninth-string quarterback. Bergenheim took mock offense. "I didn't make any fumbles or bad passes."
Other stuff from the morning skate: Looked as if wing Dana Tyrell and defenseman Matt Smaby will be scratched. ... Dan Ellis gets his second straight start in net. ... How short will the leasch be on defenseman Mike Vernace, who was benched for a time in consecutive games for defensive blunders? ... Defensesman Victor Hedman has been very good this season at playing his position. He has not been very good at shooting the puck on net. Consider the big Swede has seven shots on goal, but also seven shots that have missed the net and two more blocked. Hedman said he is trying to be too fine with his shots. "Obviously, I'm not shooting for rebounds and trying to find the open part of the net," Hedman said. "As a defenseman, you get those opportunities, you want to make sure you hit the net. I've got to relax a little bit." That said, Hedman has impressed Boucher that he even creates as many scoring chances as he has. "He's created tons," Boucher said. "This is a guy who has really picked it up since Day 1. I really didn't think he was going to be where he is now. He's really progressing very fast. It's important he doesn't change his game, either. He's doing all the simple stuff right and he's using his speed. He's got okay hands and he shoots good, but his mobility is everything." ... Speaking of shooting, Boucher said any player, generally, needs to shoot for the middle of the net and not try to pick corners. "The bull's-eye is this big, and around it is your margin of error. So, you aim for the middle, but you very rarely get the middle. So, if you aim for the outside of that target, then you're totally outside for three quarters of your aim and you have a bigger chance to miss the net. So, aim for something more inside." ... Finally, happy 38th birthday to equipment manager Ray Thill, who got the customary shaving cream to the face and head.

I fixed the MAA that became my Filmation Hordak when his shoulder peg tore off inside the bicep with super glue and one of the short Transformers metal pins they use in joints. I just drilled it out and glued the pin in each piece, and that completely fixed it, and it still is perfectly fine over a year later.
But I would assume a thicker plastic peg would work just as good assuming the joint is not overly tight. But the metal pin will not shear off. In fact I have to fix my sons Cringer, the tail broke off.

Chief LightFoot is the leader of the LightFoot Tribe on the planet Sauria. Along with the rest of his tribe, he resides in the swamps, where they have set up LightFoot Village. He has purposefully protected himself by placing his own hut on the village's high ground, making it difficult for other dinosaur species or individuals with either poor climbing or swimming skills to reach. He appears to be very sarcastic, and is often followed by other LightFoots who fan him, while he also has a guard, MuscleFoot, stationed in his hut. He is also known for wearing large amounts of gaudy jewelry.
The Chief is somewhat sardonic as he will peer over at Fox if he fails the Test of Strength, branding him as "pathetic".
He eventually came to capture Fox McCloud when he was thought to have stolen their precious treasure, but later allowed him to complete the LightFoot Tests to be allowed into their people's temple, which held one of the Krazoa Spirit.

Colorful Shrimp and Quinoa Salad
I've mentioned this before, but I'll say it again. Hubby spoils me. He packs my lunch every morning before work while I'm getting ready. It works out well since we ride to work together. So every morning, he packs me all sorts of healthy snacks to keep me full throughout the day.
I love eating salads for lunch. I usually go with this Massaged Kale Salad with Pear and Pumpkin Seeds. But sometimes I like to mix things up. I was browsing foodgawker and this recipe caught my eye. Lucky for me, we had all of the ingredients on hand!
This Colorful Shrimp and Quinoa Salad kept well in the fridge and did a good job of keeping me full in to the afternoon. I loved the punch of sweetness provided by the pomegranate arils.

Oops! ingredients list omits shrimp and corn. Sounds intriguing tho and I'll experiment.
I enjoy reading your recipes and have tried quite a few to great success.
Altho I no longer live there (thanks endless winter!) I grew up in MA so I enjoy your short bio. Great site.
Thanks for responding, Wicked Awesome. And thanks for indicating the amount of shrimp to be used.
But the amount of corn is still missing in the ingredients list although its included in the directions … so I'll improvise. Thanks for a great recipe.
Sorry to be such a pain in the patootie.

Robert H. Mereness, 90, of Alexandria, VA., formerly of Lima, VA, died Dec. 15, 2010, at Goodwin House Retirement Community, Alexandria, VA., of complications related to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
He was born in Marion. He had been married to Kathryn Carnes, formerly of Lima, who survives in San Antonio. He then married Kathleen Wharton, formerly of McAllen, Texas, who survives in Alexandria, Va.
Mr. Mereness retired as a captain from the Navy. During World War II, he served with the amphibious forces participating in the invasions of Sicily and Salerno before becoming a training officer at the Navy's amphibious training base at Fort Piece, Fla. He later served in the Pacific aboard amphibious attack transport ships. In 1946, he was selected as a public information specialist and assigned as one of the first 40 members to the Navy Department Office of Public Relations (known as the 40 Thieves). Later public affairs assignments included duties on the staffs of the Commander in Chief, U.S. Pacific Fleet, and Pacific Command in Hawaii; Military Sea Transportation Service, London; Naval Training Center and Eleventh Naval District, San Diego; Atlantic Fleet and Atlantic Command, Norfolk, Va.; and U.S. Naval Forces Europe, London. His last assignment before retirement in 1966 was with the assistant secretary of defense for public affairs. He served as a public affairs officer with the Naval Air Task Forces during the Korean War and was public affairs officer for the Atlantic Command during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Following his retirement, he became assistant to the president of the Shipbuilders Council of America and later executive director of the Asbestos Information Association of North America. He established his own public relations firm in 1982 and served as Director of Advertising and Corporate Relations for the Navy League of the United States during the subsequent five years. He attended Denison University and graduated from Antioch College before being commissioned as an ensign at Notre Dame University Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps in 1942. He was a graduate of the Armed Forces Staff College.
He was active in civic affairs for the city of Alexandria, Va., a volunteer for the Boy Scouts of America and the National Capital United Way, and was involved in various Navy public affairs activities.

We have encountered a black mould issue this spring/summer due to the high water table and the condition of our basement. We have a 100 year old home with 2/3 dirt crawl space and 1/3 concrete basement. The dirt is creating high humidity, and along with the moisture, mould was able to thrive. While we have dealt with the mould issue, we are trying to prevent this from happening in the future. We called in 2 Insulation companies for quotes so far, thinking that insulating the inside foundation walls would help. We have conflicting quotes ie: open celled foam vs. closed cell foam. To me, both of these create their own issues, thereby not really fixing the problem. I have read on line that it is necessary to encapsulate the baserment with 20 mil poly. In the US, it is CLEANSPACE. Does anyone here install a similar system? At what cost? Approx. 900sq.ft. of space.
We are still getting that dreadful musty basement smell coming up from the basement.
We have a 10 day to 2 week installation window. We would like to have the furnace and air conditioning along with the duct work cleaned and serviced, but don't see the point until this basement is sealed. Please help
Hi Karen, it looks like nobody wants to take a swing at this one. In general, you need to deal with the moisture / water coming into your basement and this is best done from the outside through foundation waterproofing and weeping systems as well as any necessary grading to direct the water away from the foundation. A minimum of 2" of closed cell foam will provide an excellent vapour barrier on the inside if / when your foundation is actually waterproof as well as being R 12 - R 14 insulation. You also have to deal with sealing up the dirt floor on the inside. I haven't heard of the brand you mentioned but I have heard of people using everything from 6 mil poly to vinyl pool liner material which sounds like a similar idea. This should be overlapped and sealed at every joint as well as to the walls at the perimeter. You may be able to install it first and then spray foam over the edges to seal. You also have to ventilate to deal with any future moisture. Once you have insulated, you can probably run 1 or 2 ducts off of your furnace into the space to ensure some air movement. This will have the added benefit of heating the floor above and avoiding any condensation build up. Hope this helps!

DIB to launch Arabic SMS banking service in UAE
Dubai Islamic Bank (DIB) has launched the United Arab Emirates' UAE's first Arabic language Short Messaging Service (SMS) banking service – Al-Islami Mobile banking. The service, with 36 features, allows the bank's customers the convenience to receive their account information with their mobile phones.
The service works interactively with customers at two levels - update and enquiry services. Update service automatically sends SMS information to customer mobile detailing account activity based on service criteria such as salary credit notification, inward remittance or returned check.
Customers can receive SMS banking information based on the language preferred Arabic or English. The customer can activate new unique feature, which is called Do Not Disturb, at any time, which would stop the service temporarily. The service can be re-activated when required.
Established in 1975, DIBank is considered to be the first Islamic bank in the world that has implemented the principles of Islam in all its practices. It was founded with active assistance of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Government, the Central Bank and people of the UAE. — (menareport.com)

Hi Dave, The reason that your getting that "backgrounded" interface is due to a missing resource fork; however, you can avoid dealing with that by creating an appbundle. The appbundle is just a directory structure that the os sees as an executable. If you structure it right, you can get the app to fire up and run like it should: bundlename.app\ - Pkginfo - Contents\ - Info.plist: This is the "heart" of the appbundle - MacOS\ - Your executable(s) here - Resources\ - your .icns (multi-icons) file The Info.plist file basically tells the OS what executable to run when you double click, what icon to use, etc... The format of info.plist in the binary release of pgadmin is probably all you'll need to get up and running. That's it for the appbundle; now if you'd rather create a "double clickable" executable without all that, you need to add a resource fork to it.

Student Leadership is an important part of Campus Ministries, including our volunteer "Servantship" team, our paid student internship program (SALT), and the Christian Leadership Minor in the professional PEAK
Student Leadership (Servantship)
"Servantship" helps students develop their skills and passions in Late Night, Hospitality, Men's and Women's Ministry, Community Team, Catholic Outreach, IC houses and Service (Potter's Clay).
The entire Servantship Team meets once every three weeks and has an overnight retreat in the spring. These meetings provide a space to build community and communication among the student leadership team, to learn about and develop leadership skills, and to set up collaborative planning.
Individual teams meet every 1-2 weeks or as needed to dream and plan and make great things happen.
Servantship students also meet weekly with Campus Ministries staff for support in their spiritual, social, emotional and academic life. Daily reading of the One-year Bible provides common ground for conversation as well.
STudent internship (SALT)
Servant and Leadership Training (SALT) is an opportunity for students to learn and practice the art of discipleship and leadership in a one year student internship. Through study, mentorship and hands on experience student interns can grow in theological breadth and depth and personal discipleship, explore and develop leadership skills, and help empower the ongoing culture change at the C of I inspired by authentic Christian student community.
Salt Interns receive a $2,000 - $6,000 stipend during their internship.
Check with the Campus Ministries staff for an application.
Community Leadership Team (CLT)
* Students on the CLT are part of a movement to create life-long, spiritually supportive relationships, on the C of I campus. This is done by creating a mature and responsible alternative culture regarding alcohol - a "middle ground" of responsible drinking (or fun without any alcohol) in which alcohol does not become the reason to get together, or become a problem for students who are getting together, and by nurturing rich and welcoming spaces for C of I students to hang out in quality atmospheres that are comfortable, safe, deep and fun - intentional communities inspired and guided by Jesus' vision for the world and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Last week, I attended the Dallas stop of "Eyes on the Internet," the Online Publishers Association's annual research tour. The tour presents the OPA's recently completed ethnographic study about media consumption among average consumers, "A Day in the Life: An Ethnographic Study of Media Consumption," conducted by Ball State University's Center for Media Design (CMD). The basis for the research is the CMD's Middletown Media Study, an observational study of consumers' media consumption, set against the backdrop of everyday activities.
The study's goal was to provide insights into the value of online audiences by addressing the following questions:
- What are the media consumption habits of the average American?
- Which target audiences can be reached and engaged online?
- How does online complement offline media?
- What are consumers saying about when, where, and how they use media?
- What are the implications for media, advertisers, and marketers?
To achieve these goals, CMD researchers followed people throughout their day, 13 hours a day, to all kinds of locations: home, work, retail stores, gyms, restaurants, and so on. They observed 350 people of all ages, genders, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
Researchers looked at television, radio, Internet, newspaper, and magazine media habits of these 350 souls to assess daily reach and duration. They looked at consumption across dayparts and media combinations. What happens when people combine media exposure? What happens when one medium drives someone to another?
People in the study talked about reading a newspaper or magazine or watching television, then going online to get more information and new angles on the story. They also talked about seeing a product mentioned or advertised and going online for more information. Which, to many of you reading this column, may elicit a resounding comment of "Duh!" But it's nice to see validation come from an outside source.
In the past, I've referred to this as "media meshing." The OPA calls it "concurrent exposure." Whatever you call it, it's interesting stuff.
What was especially interesting to me was the CMD study looked at the value of Webcentric media consumers. It found heavy Web users tend to spend consistently more than heavy TV consumers across lots of categories, including education, retail, entertainment/recreation, travel, and out-of-home food. Good news for those of us in online media.
At a higher level, the CMD study finds the Web:
- Has become a powerful reach medium in its own right
- Reaches consumers in all major dayparts
- Is a great reach medium, adding substantial incremental reach to other media
- Has an at-work presence exceeding all major media
- Attracts valuable audience for advertisers: those who spend more than TV users in many consumer categories
As part of the event, the OPA conducted a panel discussion about the research and what it means to people in our business. The big question: if people are spending so much time online, why don't media budgets reflect that shift?
"Last year we did a study with Nielsen Homescan Data for Dr Pepper where we measured the impact of our online campaign on product sales," Erika Knight, director of interactive and emerging media at Cadbury Schwepps, said. "We used lots of rich media with a brand message. No promotion or sweepstakes were used to drive traffic. What this study showed was an up-tick in sales attributable to the campaign.
"The most interesting part for us was that this campaign was able to bring in new or lapsed consumers," Knight continued. "We found that about a quarter of those influenced to purchase by the campaign had not purchased in the past 52 weeks. What that tells us is that day in and day out online can move the needle for us with a brand message alone. As a result, our media mix is starting to resemble our consumers' media consumption habits. And that's a good thing."
There seemed to be a lot of traditional marketers in the audience, all eager to learn. Every day I see attitudes change about online's role in the marketing and media mix. Cadbury Schwepps is embracing integration.
The tide is turning. Enjoy the ride.
Check out OPA's presentation and let me know what you think.

Briefs: OA Suggestion of the Week October 10, 2008
Buying the best body scrubber
What sold me on Soap & Glory products at Target wasn't the witty puns (Clean on Me shower gel, for example) or the vintage packaging. It was the company motto.
"At Soap & Glory, we believe that you shouldn't have to spend an arm and a leg just to moisturize one (or the other, or both)."
Yes. I am a word person and a bargain shopper and that slogan appeals to both traits.
Not to mention that I love, love, the body scrub "The Scrub of Your Life."
It has a soft floral scent, meaning I don't smell like a fruit basket when I get out of the shower. The scrub is gentle on the skin and packs a decent moisturizer. I hate it when my skin feels itchy and dry after a shower.
I haven't tried these products by Soap & Glory yet, but I'd like to: Great Shakes hand cream, Calm One Calm All body lotion and the Sexy Motherpucker lip plumper gloss. The products are priced between $9.99 and $24.99 and located cosmetics department at Target.
Soon, you'll be able to buy the products online at soapandglorycosmetics.com.

You might also want to check http://faculty.vassar.edu/lowry/binomialX.html, which does the calculations for you, if you're just interested in getting an answer quickly.
You may try looking more into Normal Distributions. They're a little more complicated to set up, but all the calculations are tabularized and easy once you normalize everything. For your second post, it looks like you're getting into Random Variable territory. You can find some Confidence Intervals and perform some Hypothesis Testing for the means and stuff to get a sense of the "goodness" of the data. Considering that I've taken two college Statistics & Probability for Engineers courses and one refresher course for work, I should be able to provide more explicit guidance, but I'm a systems engineer now and haven't calculated anything in a non-academic setting in seven years.

Daily Wrap-up: Round 3, FedEx St. Jude ClassicJune 09, 2012
Staff and wire reports
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Davis Love III thinks he's playing as well as he did earlier this year before pulling a rib muscle at Bay Hill. Now the U.S. Ryder Cup captain is eager to see just how much he might do.
Love III shot his third straight 2-under 68 on Saturday to join Nick O'Hern and John Merrick atop the leaderboard at the windy St. Jude Classic. Asked what his first PGA TOUR win since 2008 would mean, the 48-year-old Love had a quick answer.
"Be a lot of Ryder Cup points," Love said.
With a win, Love is projected to jump from 63 into the top 30 in the Ryder Cup standings. Love started off this year excited about how he was playing before injuries slowed him down. He wound up not playing at all for about six weeks after withdrawing on the final day at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in late March before returning at THE PLAYERS Championship.
Love tied for 16th at the Memorial last week, then played 36 holes in Columbus, Ohio, to qualify for his 23rd U.S. Open. He committed late to play in Memphis, making sure he was healthy enough to use this event as a final tuneup.
Love had three birdies and only one bogey Saturday to match O'Hern and Merrick at 6- under 204, the highest 54-hole lead on tour this year. O'Hern had a 67, and Merrick shot 69. The man with 20 career PGA TOUR wins said obviously there's a lot of pressure and he wants to win. He has only two wins since winning four times in 2003.
"Is it a big huge deal in my career that I have to win this week? No. But when you get up there at the top ... the old feeling kicks in. You concentrate better, you focus better and my routines of the day were coming down those last four, five holes. And I missed a couple putts, but I felt like I was right in like old times ... focused and playing and enjoying it," Love said.
"So it would mean a lot to win for sure. Anytime you win out here is important. But it's fun to be in it."
Rory McIlroy, who will try to defend his U.S. Open title next week at The Olympic Club in San Francisco, had a one-stroke lead when he teed off. He shot a 2-over 72 in a round that featured six bogeys and four birdies to drop in a tie at 5 under.
Dustin Johnson, making his second start after a 2 1/2-month layoff recovering from back pain, also was in the group at 5 under after a 67 that included a bogey on No. 18. J.B. Holmes was in that knot atop the leaderboard going to No. 18, but hit his tee shot into a bunker and three-putted for a double bogey to finish at 4 under.
Projected points The race for spots in the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup continues this week. Click to see who's making moves in Tennessee. Projections
Conditions got tougher Saturday as the greens firmed up at the TPC Southwind course along with the wind picking up through the day and gusting up to 23 mph at times. PGA TOUR officials already have pushed up tee times Sunday morning and will use threesomes off both tees hoping to squeeze in the final round before thunderstorms expected in the afternoon.
"This course is sneaky," said Merrick, who had one bogey and two birdies. "Once the wind starts blowing, the greens get firmer. You don't need to make a ton of birdies. You need to play smart and make a bunch of pars, kind of grind it out you can move up the leaderboard."
O'Hern, from Australia, is comfortable playing in the wind. He birdied Nos. 14, 15 and 16 to join the lead pack after he started hitting the ball harder, and now he has a share of the 54-hole lead for the first time in his career.
"Once I realized that, I just started hitting the ball harder and get some speed up I started hitting the ball well again," O'Hern said.
It was a wild day with eight players having at least a share of the lead at some point starting with McIlroy, who teed off with six just a stroke behind. McIlroy bogeyed two of his first five holes to fall off the pace. He tied Kevin Stadler at 7 under only to bogey No. 9 and fall back again.
Love took advantage of his experience to keep his ball out of the rough, giving himself better chances to score. He said he only hit driver a couple times, instead using his 3-wood or irons for strong tee shots leaving him plenty of wedge shots in hitting 14 of 18 greens.
Shot of the Day
J.B. Holmes holes a 37-foot birdie putt on the par-3 11th hole.
"I got the right club a bunch," Love said. "It was nice to drive it where I could hit sand wedges in. I tore up four golf balls in the front nine hitting 60-degree wedges."
Love birdied No. 6 after hitting a wedge from 94 yards to 5 feet for his first. He rolled in a 10-footer for birdie on the par-3 11th, and he grabbed a piece of the lead with a 3-foot birdie putt on the par-5 No. 16.
Stadler birdied three of his first six holes and had a 3-stroke lead when he got to 9 under through eight. But he hit his approach on the par-4 ninth into the water fronting the green and bogeyed Nos. 14 and 15. He finished with a 71 and was tied at 5 under.
The leaderboard just kept changing up and down.
When Stadler hit into the water fronting the green at the par-3 No. 14, he wound up with a bogey dropping him into a four-way tie 6 under for the lead. Love made that a five-way tie when he birdied No. 16 just as Stadler yanked his tee shot on No. 15 so left past a cart path he had to take a drop and a penalty stroke on his way to a second straight bogey.
"Couldn't tell if it was hurting or helping," Stadler said of wind that made picking the right club challenging. "It was tough."
Kevin Kisner had a piece of the lead when he tried chipping onto the green with his third shot on the par-4 17th only to see the ball go only a few feet. That led to bogey.
TPC Southwind: Round 3 EASIEST HOLE TOUGHEST HOLE The par-5 16th hole was the easiest with a Saturday scoring average of 4.513.
The par-3 4th hole was the toughest with a Saturday scoring average of 3.276.

Snow may be over, but citrus danger continues
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) - The snow event that closed Kern County highways over the weekend may be over, but the hard freeze warning issued by the National Weather Service continues through Wednesday, putting citrus crops in danger.
Kern County weather {>}{>}
"It's been pretty rough," said Nickel's Farms ranch manager Bob Teagarden. "We're gonna have some damage."
Depending on the locations, citrus farmers will have anything ranging from spotty damage to a total loss.
Temperatures overnight Friday did not reach the predicted lows. But predicted lows forecast by the National Weather Service for the next couple of nights are in the low 20s.
"Too many mornings down in the low 20s, even with water and wind machines, you're not gonna save it all," said Teagarden.
"Last night was very similar to Friday," said California Citrus Mutual director Dr. Etienne Rabe. "It was predicted to be much cooler than it actually turned out."
He called the high clouds bringing warmer temperatures small mercies.
"We will have some damage, but not a total wipeout," Rabe said.
Saturday's snowstorm shut down major roadways, including Interstate 5 over the Grapevine and Highway 58 through Tehachapi. The Hwy. 58 closure led to the postponements of the Tehachapi Christmas Parade and the ECHL match-up between the Condors and Las Vegas Wranglers, because the team couldn't get to Bakersfield to play.
The parade will take place next Saturday, Dec. 14, in downtown Tehachapi, starting at 5:30 p.m. The Condors-Wranglers match will be rescheduled, and tickets to the game can be redeemed for any match-up before the end of January.

If you thought that London's Café Pacifico was suffused with agave spirit on a regular day, you should have seen it on a particular afternoon recently, during its Tequila and Mezcal Season.
Agave education was the order of the day, as a who's who of Mexican spirits descended on the bar. Pacifico founder and tequila ambassador for Europe, Tomas Estes, invited founder of the Tequila Interchange Project and owner of Siembra Azul Tequila, David Suro, to speak to a group that included top bartenders from not only the UK, but Greece, South Africa and the US too.
After a tasting of an array of interesting products, including an example of agave spirit raicilla, there was a blind tasting of 11 products, including Sauza Blanco from 1975.

As I've already noted in REST vs. SOAP/WSDL, Amazon claims (according to Tim O'Reilly) that its AWS traffic is 85% REST, 15% SOAP. So REST proponents claim anecdotal evidence like this means REST is more popular.
They may be right--if SOAP and REST went up against each other in the People's Choice Awards (or their technical equivalent, the JDJ Reader's Choice Awards
But I'm interested in the enterprise application market, not the hobbyist market, and enterprise applications that use Web services use SOAP. I consult with customers using IBM J2EE products (WAS, RAD, etc.), and they're using SOAP. JAX-RPC, support for SOAP over HTTP and WSDL Web services, is part of J2EE. J2EE doesn't have any support for REST, unless you count servlets (which is kind of all you need for REST).
So the logic is kind of circular--J2EE supports SOAP, not REST; so that's what J2EE apps use--but nevertheless, that's how I see enterprise applications implementing Web services these days. SOAP is the established standard, REST is the opponent fighting SOAP for mindshare and trying to gain supremacy. Maybe it will; we'll see.
But for now at least, SOAP is the "most common" Web services technology.

KARACHI: The State Bank of Pakistan, in a surprise move on Friday, cut its key policy rate by 150 basis points to 10.5 per cent for two months amid an improved projection of inflation for 2012-13 and aimed at encouraging private investment.
This exceeded expectations as analysts polled by Dawn earlier this week projected either the policy rate to remain flat at 12 per cent or a cut of up to 100 basis points.
The business community largely welcomed the decision and expressed the hope that it would play a role in containing the intensity of energy crisis and reducing fiscal deficit.
State Bank Governor Yaseen Anwar, unveiling the first monetary policy for the current fiscal year at a press conference, said the outlook for inflation had improved with a projection of 10.5 per cent for FY13 and loans to private sector businesses had sharply decreased.
"The central board of directors of SBP has decided to give a relatively high weight to the state of private sector and investment in the economy," Yaseen Anwar said.
The CPI inflation rose to 9.6 per cent last month, the lowest since Dec 2004 and fell 0.2 per cent on a month-on-month basis.
Private investment contracted for the fourth consecutive year, standing at 13 per cent, while total investment fell to 12.5 per cent of GDP in FY12 — not a good omen for the economy.
The State Bank took comfort in the receipt of $1.12 billion out of the Coalition Support Funds from the US last week. It is now banking on receipt from the much delayed auction proceeds of 3G licences. The central bank estimates that the money will reduce the current account deficit to $2.5 billion, or one per cent of GDP.
Remittances have also been rising as overseas Pakistani workers sent home a record amount of $13.2 billion, a growth of 17.73 per cent in 2011-12 over the previous year. Mr Anwar said provisional figures suggested $1.2 billion was remitted last month.
ENERGY CRISIS AND FISCAL WEAKNESS: The State Bank governor, however, tempered his optimism with a note of caution: "The impact of the monetary policy has become limited," as a looming energy crisis and weak fiscal fundamentals were the main reasons for high inflation and low growth.
Fiscal borrowings from the banking sector grew by 50 per cent in 2011-12 and contributed 67 per cent to the overall rise of 14.1 per cent in M2 (currency in circulation), according to SBP.
However, Mr Anwar said the government had retired Rs198 billion last month, indicating that "the fiscal authority is beginning to make efforts to reduce its borrowings from SBP".
Fiscal deficit in FY12, according to SBP, has been estimated at 6.4 per cent of GDP, excluding 1.9 per cent debt consolidation of power and food sector arrears, which is a considerable slippage and "concerted efforts to bridge the gap between revenue and expenditures through structural reforms are necessary to bring monetary stability and economic growth on sustainable basis", said the State Bank governor.
The SBP has projected that growth rate would remain between three and four per cent in 2012-13 - well below the target of 4.3 per cent and the country's economic potential.
The central bank last cut its policy rate by 150 basis points to 12 per cent in Oct 2011 and kept it unchanged in the previous four monetary policy statements.

Loan Amortization Spreadsheet
|Forever Free!
|File Type(s):
|Excel Spreadsheet Template (.xlt);
OpenOffice Spreadsheet (.ods)
|File Size:
|114kb (ZIP file)
|Last Update:
|February, 2010
|Current Version:
I'm not sure the internet needs another loan-amortization spreadsheet ... but I'm gonna put one out there anyway!
For the financial newbies out there, a "loan amortization" is simply a breakdown of any loan's payments and balances over the life of the loan. In other words, an amortization shows you how much principle and interest you're paying, month by month, until the loan is retired.
My amortization schedule spreadsheet looks like this:
The Loan Amortization spreadsheet is a pretty simple concoction. (We all like simple, yes?). You can download a copy below:
The first worksheet in the spreadsheet file contains the instructions, but a few items ought to be covered here, too.
Spreadsheet Versions
When you extract the ZIP file (tutorial), you'll actually find two spreadsheets. One is for Excel (.xlt), and one is for OpenOffice (.ods).
Please use the spreadsheet that's appropriate for the program you have.
The "Quick Payment Calculator"
As noted above, the first worksheet in the file is the INTRO page, with instructions and such. The second worksheet is called the QUICK PAYMENT CALCULATOR (QPC), and looks thusly:
Not much to it, is there? Well, that's okay. It doesn't have to do much!
The QPC's one and only goal in life is to calculate the monthly payment of any fixed-rate, fixed-term loan. (Auto and fixed-rate home loans would qualify here, for example.) Just enter the loan's interest rate, term, and borrowed amount, and the worksheet returns the necessary monthly payment.
Note, however, that IYM stresses debt-free-ness. Just because it's this easy to calculate a loan's payment ... well, that doesn't mean you need to go out and get one!
Working with Loan Amortizations
Let me stress this: The amortization schedule built by this worksheet is intended for any fixed-rate, fixed-term loan or mortgage of up to 480 months (40 years) duration. It'd work for a credit-card balance, too, I suppose ... but only until (1) the card company changes the loan terms, or (2) you borrow more against the card or run up fees on it. In that case, you would likely be better off using my variable-loan amortization spreadsheet ... but it still won't give you exact figures which match your bank.
Let's take a quick look at the screenshot again. Namingly, let's go through the sample data:
The top left-hand corner is where you'll find the five required inputs. (Pictured below!) Enter your loan amount, its interest rate (APR), term (in months), and starting month (or date of first payment).
If you are making (or plan on making) additional contributions toward the loan's principle every month, enter the amount of this "Regular Add'l Contribution" in Cell F9.
This particular spreadsheet is set up to allow users to track the loan's amortization over time. If you decide to make any "One-Time Add'l Payments," you can enter these in Column H, in the amortization itself. Simply enter any extra payments on the row that corresponds to the month you're in.
Will It Be Exact?
Not bloody likely. Whether you make payments at the beginning or the end of the month makes a difference, for instance. But it should track your loan pretty closely!
Printable? Yes!
The amortization schedule should print nicely in landscape format. But because printers tend to be a bit testy with these sorts of things, I can't promise that this will be the case on everyone's machine.

Been working on this for about a week. Help would be great. PLEASE.
I was really thankful for the clear direction on how to create the Bablefish RFID/WavShield Project
It was one of the few projects I could find that used both shields together.
When I swipe a myfare RFID sticker ... it creates an ID that I cut and paste into the provided code == AWESOME
However I thought that was the unique myfare ID number for that sticker...
I was wrong.
If I reupload the Babelfish code... the numbers aren't the same... whatever ID# that was created in the previous code is now something completely different.
So... what I want to know... is there a way to keep the generated ID#s consistent?
I also have a question about including millis in this project... but I will deal with that after I figure this out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

ST. GEORGE, Utah >> The Lady Jacks couldn't get to a dozen. Even with an impressive furious rally to tie the ball game.
In a classic battle between two familiar foes, UC San Diego dropped Humboldt State 10-6 in eight innings to open the Division II West Regional at Dixe State Friday afternoon.
With the defeat, Humboldt will move into the Loser's Bracket of the double elimination tournament and face Central Washington at 12:30 p.m. today.
After winning the last 11 meetings and five in a row this season, Humboldt (46-15) battled hard but fell one short of the dozen victory mark against UC San Diego (34-16). The Jacks claimed four wins in the regular season and a California Collegiate Athletic Association Tournament opener, 2-1, a week ago.
"We knew it wasn't going to be easy. We see each other 12 times in two years," said Humboldt head coach Shelli Sarchett. "We like to have played like we did against them earlier in the season where we won five games, but it is not how it worked out today."
After early fielding miscues made the deficit four runs, 6-2, Humboldt battled back in its last trip to the plate. Tiffany Hollingsworth belted a leadoff solo home run to start a run of five-straight Jacks to reach base. Julie Pena drew a four-pitch walk, before Dani Randall, Sarah Fox and Hannah Williams lined back-to-back singles to cut the margin to a single run, 6-5. UC San Diego retired the next two Humboldt hitters, but Tonya Walker lofted a single over a draw in infield to plate pinch-runner Carly Perkins to tie the game, 6-6, to force extra innings.
"It is a testament to these young ladies and how they never give up," said the Humboldt coach. "We were just a little too late. We would have liked to put the pressure on them by scoring earlier in the fourth, fifth and sixth innings."
"We know at any deficit we have a chance to come back with our lineup as we proved we can come back in the seventh today," said Jacks' designated player Hannah Williams.
UC San Diego handled the extra-inning pressure. The Tritons put four of their first five hitters on base to take the lead 7-6. Two batters later with two outs, Alissa Gutierrez drove a bases-clearing double to the center field fence to extend the margin back to four runs, 10-6. In the bottom of the eighth, Alexis Edwards allowed only a one-out walk to Pena to complete the UC San Diego win and earn her first win in five decisions against Humboldt.
"We've been here before and came back before," said Sarchett of Humboldt's situation in the loser's bracket. "In 2008 when we won the national championship, we had to come back from this same situation. We are more than capable of winning two games both on Saturday and Sunday."

Flint police investigate woman's homicide
Mon, 23 Jan 2012 23:17:09 GMT —
Flint police are looking for the man who gunned down an 18-year-old woman then left her for dead in the street Sunday night.
Balloons mark the spot on Winona Street where 18-year-old Shamika Johnson was shot dead Sunday evening.
Just four weeks into 2012 and a community is reacting to Flint's seventh homicide of the year, a woman killed in front of her home.
This was the scene Sunday night as police worked to figure out why someone would want Shamika Johnson dead. Investigators worked into the night and announced they're looking for a person of interest.
"Thats my baby that they took away from me, they took my baby's life," a hysterical LaShonda Horton said in reaction to her daughter's death
Johnson's mother says she was home when the alleged shooter came to the street and picked her daughter up.
Horton also heard the gunshots.
"I seen him when he pulled up and picked my daughter up and he acted like he was getting out the car to let her in the back seat and he started just shooting, and shooting and shooting, he shot three times," said Horton.
Horton says she knows the man who shot her daughter and is cooperating with police to have him arrested.
In the meantime, there is no comfort for her loss.
"Walking over here in this area just to shoot somebody down like a dog, that is not fair," said neighbor Annette Whitt.

Last week my cat Bill had a seizure during the night. It woke me up. He had violent spasms causing his whole body to roll over and over. When this ceased, I petted him to calm him down. After a few minutes he was fine. The next seizure that I noticed occurred about a week later. This time I noticed him having a less severe spasm and looking around the room in a dazed state. His heart was pounding fast. I petted him until he seemed to calm down and this time he did not go into more violent convulsions. Again, after a few minutes he was OK.
Has anyone experienced this with their cat? Does anyone know what may be causing his seizures? He is scheduled for a vet appointment this week.

THE recent loyalist flag protests have been a disaster for unionism.
Even the street blockages that have remained non-violent have disrupted and antagonised many in the population who would otherwise be sympathetic.
But the attacks on the police or on the homes of politicians such as the SDLP member Claire Hanna are wicked.
Even if Ms Hanna was a hardliner, such an attack would be cowardly, anti democratic and despicable,
But she isn't. Her bonehead attackers are presumably unaware that Ms Hanna is one of the SDLP politicians who condemned the naming of a playpark in Newry after an IRA man.
Do the loyalists not realise how important it is that some such nationalists still exist, when so many other (supposedly moderate) nationalists are enthusiastically joining in the whitewashing of decades of IRA murder?
Even those loyalists who lack the moral compass to understand the wrongness of such attacks should at least try to grasp how damaging the violence has been to the cause that they profess to support.
The News Letter was a staunch and early defender of maintaining the daily flying of the Union Flag at Belfast City Hall. Our position on the flag is unchanged.
Its removal was part of a pan-nationalist assault on every aspect of Britishness except cheques from the Treasury.
But now the hooded youths have managed to obscure that.
Insofar as anyone outside Northern Ireland is interested, they see Union Flag wielding protesters as the troublemakers. Unforgivably, loyalists have allowed Sinn Fein to depict themselves as the reasonable democrats.

Can Love Exist Without Trust?
reader's question
Hi Doc,
I'm a little confused about what to do. My ex-girlfriend is trying to come back into my life. We had been dating for almost two years. We never fought and always got along; we were totally in love. She's a beautiful girl and I have never had problems meeting women.
We both worked at Hooters where she always had guys pursuing her. I, on the other hand, had dated most of the girls that worked there. So we were both, I guess, somewhat confident and always a challenge to each other. I just knew from the day I met her that she was the one I would marry.
Well Doc, the problem is, about ten months ago, she left me for a Med student who will soon become a doctor. He has money and bought her everything she wanted, so she didn't have to work anymore. They were moving overseas so he could finish his schooling, and she was going to marry him and live on a tropical island.
I couldn't believe it when she left, but I told her I was happy for her. What else could I do but move on with my life?
back to basicsBefore long I was dating new girls and having a blast being single. Then my ex called me a couple of weeks ago to tell me that she thought the money would make her happy, but that she's miserable with her new guy. They do nothing but fight. He's not a Challenge. He's jealous and possessive and she realizes he's tried to buy her love and that she doesn't respect him. Now she says that she really only wants me and would give up everything and move back if I would please give her a second chance.
Tex — who wants to know what he should do.
doc love's answerHi Tex,
You showed a lot of class when you wished her the best after she stabbed you in the heart and broke off the handle. You could have done what most guys do and either acted like a whining wimp and begged her to stay or screamed and yelled like a Macho Boy and called her abusive names. But you took the higher ground, the road less traveled. So you get an 'A' in self-control and now she's getting her just desserts.
To get clear about what to do next, Tex, let's take an objective look at what was really going on with the two of you. The truth is that you may have had her body, but you didn't have her heart, because when Mister Med School flashed the cash, she jumped ship.
If you take her back, she'll feel better and you'll feel worse...

Paradise High School is in the middle of a major renovation of its drama room to provide for a new drama and music class.
The room with a stage has been repainted with dark green and black colors, and cabinets in the back of the stage have been removed.
When the renovations end in a few weeks, the room will have a full-spectrum stage lighting, a new sound system and more storage space.
"Our goal is for it to create more of a true theater atmosphere," Marcus said.
The renovations are mostly to provide for a popular new class at the school known as "Musical Production," he said. It's a class that serves about 60 students between two sections, despite only being four weeks old.
Musical Production blends choral and dramatic arts into full-stage productions, some written by students and others being performances of established musicals, Marcus said.
The stage should be completed by the time of the first show put on by the class, he said.

Middle Creek OC named next West Johnston coach
Posted February 11, 2010
Middle Creek offensive coordinator Randy Ragland was named the next head football coach for West Johnston High School on Thursday afternoon.
"It is an honor and a privilege to be here today as the next head football coach at West Johnston," he said. "It is a position that I look forward to holding to a high standard and embracing each and every day.
"Our football players here at West will be held to the highest standards, whether in the classroom, weight room, practice field, or while their out in the community, the expectation will be the same and that is they will always act like a gentleman and a champion."
Ragland is a 1986 graduate of Fuquay-Varina High School and was selected all-conference in 1985. A quarterback, he helped the Bengals to an appearance in the 1985 state championship game.
Ragland graduated from Lees-McRae College with a degree in physical education and a minor in education.
Ragland takes over the program after former head coach Bennett Jones stepped down earlier this year. Jones said at the time that he wanted to spend more time with his family, adding that he didn't think West Johnston was the right fit for him.
Jones took over for Kwame Dixon at West Johnston in July of 2008, days before the start of practice. In the fall of 2008, he led West Johnston to a school record eight wins.
Last season, West Johnston was 3-8 overall and 2-5 in the Greater Neuse River Conference.
Ragland most recently helped take Middle Creek to the third round of the N.C. High School Athletic Association 4-A state playoffs. Last season, Middle Creek won a school record 12 games, adding a conference championships to it's lists of accomplishments.
Ragland spent five seasons at Middle Creek.
"The toughest thing for me in the days leading up to being offered and accepting the head coaching position at West is that I knew I was going to have to leave some fine young men behind that have meant so much to me over these past few years," he said. "Although West offers me a great opportunity, it is never easy leaving people that you care so much about."
Middle Creek quarterback Garrett Leatham and wide receiver Jon Moore said West Johnston is getting a very good coach.
"He's a mastermind when it comes to the spread offense," Moore said. "He brings a lot of energy to the team; a lot of energy when you do good, and a lot of energy when you don't."
Leatham said Middle Creek will have to adjust losing Ragland.
"Anytime you lose a coach like [Ragland], you're going to take a hit," said Leatham. "But we will be fine, we'll just have to keep working hard."
Both Leatham and Moore will return next season to the Mustangs.

If you enjoy hiking in Runyon Canyon Park, you might be surprised to hear that one of the most popular trails is actually located on private property and is threatened by development of as many five to twenty mansions. Help Friends of Runyon Canyon and The Trust for Public Land purchase the trail and 14 acres of adjoining open space for the public to enjoy forever.
Every dollar donated will be doubled by a matching grant from the David Schwartz Foundation, transforming a donation of $50 into $100, $200 to $400, $500 to $1,000, and you get the picture. Every donation is tax-deductible and makes a difference. Hike in the hills knowing you helped save them!
- Preserve 14 acres of trails for hiking and recreating, open space for regional wildlife conservation and linkages, natural vegetation providing habitat and water management, and open vistas both of the hills and from the hills.
- Contribute to the proper management of this valuable resource. Currently, as private property, the land goes unmanaged. Once purchased, the land will be cared for and managed by the Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks, helping to preserve its resources and recreational capacity.
YOU- You the user of this valuable resource and beloved park. The park is a treasure because of you, and can be preserved because of you.
Friends of Runyon Canyon- www.friendsofrunyoncanyon.org
A volunteer-run nonprofit made up of concerned citizens and neighbors of Runyon Canyon with a mission to restore, manage, enhance and protect the Runyon Canyon Park Recreation Area in partnership with the public and the City of Los Angeles for the enjoyment of present and future generations.
The Trust for Public Land- www.tpl.org
A national nonprofit working to build parks and protect land for people. In Los Angeles, this work includes creating parks in underserved communities such as Maywood and Watts as well as preserving open space within the Santa Monica Mountains and surrounding natural lands. Essential to this mission is increasing access to these locations for all Los Angeles County residents, making it easier to recreate, connect with nature, and reap the many health benefits provided by being outdoors.
Every year as many as two million people escape the urban bustle of Los Angeles to hike Runyon Canyon Park located in the Hollywood Hills. Next to one of L.A.'s most dense neighborhoods, this city-owned park is a favorite place to meet with friends, walk dogs, hike the park's hilly trails, explore its natural landscape, and enjoy expansive views of the city.
Visitors often assume that all the park's hills and trails are publicly owned. In fact, one of the most popular destinations in Runyon Canyon is an island of private land under immediate threat of development. With its sweeping views, this 14-acre parcel, long treated as a de facto part of the park, is a potential site for five to twenty mansions.
The land's development would completely compromise this much-loved park, blocking trails that have long been open for everyone to enjoy and effectively ending efforts to weave Runyon Canyon into a much larger complex of public open space, including the Santa Monica National Recreation Area. We now have the opportunity to acquire this important property for the public.

Google Display Network Will Charge Only For Ads That Are Viewed
In the next several weeks, Google will move all CPMs to viewable CPMs in its display ad network.
Google today announced a commitment to only charge for display ads that are viewed.
Speaking during a keynote discussion at SMX East in New York, Brad Bender, vice president of product management of the Google Display Network, said: "I'm pleased to announce that GDN is moving to 100% viewable. We're going to migrate all of the CPMs in the system to viewable CPMs. All advertisers will be able to see viewable metrics so they can make better decisions."
The move, which Bender said will be rolled out to GDN users in the next couple weeks, should be welcome news to advertisers worried about the Google provided stat that 56 percent of online display ads never have a chance to be viewed. Among the reasons for their invisibility: they are low on a page, they have scrolled out of view or they are in a tab that isn't activated.
Bender said Google has already been working on the viewability issue and last year didn't charge advertisers for 70 billion impressions that weren't seen.
You can read more about the announcement on Google's Inside Adwords blog.

I happened to be invited to an academic think tank on the future of digital photography and thought those of you who are pushing the SX50 to the limit might be interested in stuff being looked at in the labs.
One project discussed was having triple the number of individual pixel sensors in triangular formation with one set on the current focal plane and one set just above and one set just below. Thus each time the camera fired three pictures would be taken and could be stacked in camera in various interesting ways. And a five times prototype is in construction.
Another project had similar feel but involved playing with the IS system to produce a series of pixel slipped images - where the centre of the field of view is micro slipped by the IS system in a random fashion to create a super - rapid series of images which can then be stacked to eliminate lens distortion and increase contrast capture.
Another project involved an electronically distortable element in the lens under control of the camera's on board computer.
Another used fresnel technology with wavelet reconstruction to produce a highly compact light and plastic lensed 1000mm lens.
Has anyone else heard of what the next big step is going to be in photography? The SX50 was mentioned A LOT as being quite ground breaking in the lens resolution in professional hands. Put a doubly sensitive sensor (or a denser sensor) with that lens and it becomes a potentially a real threat to the pro business.
One of the academics opined that that he would sell shares in any business which made a lot of its money out of heavy glass costing more than $1000 a piece.....
Love to know what you guys are thinking?
