Songkran 2014
Songkran (Thailand New Year): The Water Festival
Songkran 2014 / Thai New Year 2014
Songkran Festival or known as Thailand Water Festival, is the most important festival for Thai people. Celebrated as the traditional Thai New Year, Thai people sprinkle water on the elders in show of respect and pay respect to Buddha images.
Date of Songkran 2014
Songkran 2014 falls from Sunday, 13 April 2014 to Tuesday, 15 April 2014.
Songkran Festival was previously calculated based on Thai lunar calendar, but in recent years is now fixed based on Western calendar. Songkran Festival falls on 13-15 April yearly, though the celebration usually starts before and ends days after the official holiday.
Date of Songkran 2013
Songkran 2013 starts from Saturday, 14 April 2013 to Sunday, 15 April 2013.
Date of Songkran 2012
Songkran 2012 falls from Friday, 13 April 2012 to Sunday, 15 April 2012.
Date of Songkran 2011

Songkran Celebrations
Thai National Holiday
Songkran 2014 is the most important festival for Thais and is a Thai national holiday. While the official national holiday is for 3 days, from 13 April to 15 April , workers' days-off often last for as long as a week.

Songkran Water Fights
Songkran Festival, the Water Festival is very closely associated with water. Originally, people gently pour water to elders and family to give good fortune, but now it has evolved to splashing strangers on the streets with water, either with water gun or bucket of water, all in the spirit of good fun. Because of this, Songkran is also often called as the Water Festival.
International tourists have mixed preference about this. Some will avoid traveling to Thailand during Songkran festival, but many plan their travel to coincide with the festival and join in the fun of Songkran water fights.
Pay Respect to Buddha
Many Thai people celebrate Songkran by visiting Buddhist temple (wat) to pay respect to Buddha and to give alms to Buddhist monks. People also clean Buddha images in the temple by gently pouring water on them.

Cars for sale 1990 EP or FP Mazda Miata - price reduced! Electromotive TEC3 Programable Fuel Injection, replaced with latest version last year Too many spare parts available seperately to list, can make package deal: Recent In Car Video This is a well sorted, well put together turn key Miata! It is ready to go on the track today! All it needs to be in the front in a built bottom end. Everything needed to put together a stong engine is available seperately. $9,999 OBO. Car is located at my house in Jackson, MS. Call me with any questions. Delivery is available anywhere. Trey Walker 1990 SCCA Escort World Challenge Series Mazda Miata BACKGROUND: This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Mazda racing history. This 01 car and its sister 02 car were campaigned in the 1990 SCCA Escort World Challenge Series as a way of introducing the then new model to the United States. Both cars are pictured below at the Luguna Seca round in 1990. The cars were constructed and campaigned 24-years ago by Rod Millen Motorsports under commission of the Mazda Motorsports Division of Mazda Motor of America Inc. My research indicates these two cars were the first Miata's raced in the U.S. and very likely the world. The cars are also the only two Miata's to ever have been commissioned by the factory. Both cars have construction dates of December1989. I am the 5th owner of the 01 car and have all of the bills of sale to support that claim. I acquired both cars and a trailer full of spares in the early summer of 2011 and set about restoring both for vintage racing. The 02 car was completed in early March 2012, raced at the 2012 Sebring 12-hour SVRA support race and subsequently sold to a racer in Cleveland, Ohio. I finished restoring the 01 car (car for sale) in the fall of 2012 and have raced it once in SVRA and four times in HSR, at Road Atlanta and Sebring. Fast time at Sebring was 2:38 and 1:46 at Road Atlanta by a 64 year old amateur racer. The 01 car has both an SVRA and an HSR log book, and is annually teched thru HSR until April of 2015. This car is one of two Miata's accepted by SVRA because of their professional racing history. RESTORATION: General: I spent over $24,000 restoring the 01 car and that does not include hundreds of hours of my labor. I stripped the car to its wiring harness and thoroughly cleaned the inside, outside and underside. I repainted the cockpit, trunk area and wheel wells with 2-part automotive paint. I replaced the front fenders with new ones from Mazda and purchased a one piece fiberglass hood from ISC. I modified the hood with NACA duct cold air ducts in the fauve headlight doors and added Flyin Miata louvers on each side for hot air extraction. I had the outside refinished in two–stage paint at a local body shop and then had the 1990 World Challenge livery replicated at a local graphics shop. As a part of that effort, I replace the windshield with safety glass and replaced the door vent windows with polycarbonate. The driver's vent window includes a clear NACA duct. Appropriate sections of the roll cage are protected by high density SFI padding. The dash was completely rewired and a new digital tach with shift light was installed. I also installed warning lights for oil pressure, water pressure, fuel pressure and alternator. Additionally, I installed a Rumble Strip Racing GPS for lap times and a remote switch to turn a Go Pro on and off. The car has a gauge for practically everything including diff and trans temps. Staying in the cockpit, I also installed a 3-gallon Accusump with a remote actuator on the dash; a new Safecraft fire suppression system; a Ultrashield aluminum halo seat (15") and Safecraft endurance 6-point harness. The car is also wired for a Motorola base radio system including the radio mount. I installed a quick release steering wheel hub and a Sparco flat bottom suede steering wheel. I also installed a Longacre Convex rearview mirror with the long aluminum roll bar mounts. There is also a convex driver's side round mirror to compliment the stock door mirror. The driver's foot and leg area sheet metal is covered with aluminum skin and has zero-clearance heat resistant material sandwiched between the aluminum and factory sheet metal. The seat fits me (5'-9" and 175lbs.) like a glove; however, if you are much larger than me you probably will not fit in the car without modifications to the seat/location). The guys at SVRA tech told me they had never seen a seat bolted to the car any better than mine. Suspension: All factory suspension components including sub-frames were cleaned, sanded/bead blasted and repainted. I had ISC Racing install their spherical and Delrin race bushing package on the "A" arms and knuckles. I installed ISC top hates and new Bilstein SM shocks with 800 and 350 lb. springs. The front sway bar is ISC's big unit and the rear is an SM unit. Both sway bars have adjustable drop links. I replaced the tie rod ends, ball joints, front hubs, front upper a-arms and rear hub bearings/seals with new parts from Mazda Motorsports Development. I also installed the long quick-on wheel studs on all four corners and steel lug nuts. I purchased two sets of 949 Racing 8"x15" double valve rims and valve stems in order to use a 225-50-15 tire. The car handles like a go-kart. Brakes: Millen ran early RX7 turbo brakes on the two cars. I assume this was more for endurance racing/pad longevity than actually need for larger brakes. The rotors are mounted on custom hats for which I have two sets. I also have a spare set of front turbo calipers. All six calipers were rebuilt using Mazda parts. The flexible brake lines were replaced with stainless steel braided lines. Hawk pads were used with the fronts being nearly full and the rears brand new. Pads seemingly last forever. I purchased/installed both a new master cylinder and master cylinder servo with Mazda parts. The car brakes great and kills the competition going into 10A at Road Atlanta. Driveline: Since the vintage groups allow boring the motors .040 over and rather than modify the original matching number 1.6, I pickled that motor and installed a 2001 1.8L rebuilt motor from East Street Racing. To that motor I added a 1999 ITS head from ISC Racing. The intake system is fed thru a custom aluminum tube sized to match the port on the 64mm Skunk2 throttle body that feeds into a flat top JDM intake manifold. The intake is using a HP K&N filter that is segregated from the engine heat by a custom aluminum fence with gold head shield. Fuel is delivered from a 13-gallon fuel cell with collector box and HP pump through -6 Aeroquip SS braided hose to a dual feed Flyin Miata fuel rail. The engine is cooled via an ISC large aluminum radiator and an oil cooler plumbed with -12 Aeroquip SS braided hose with remote oil filter mount that accepts a very large Fram HP1 filter. The engine is controlled with a MegaSquirt 2 ECU that was been dyno tuned before the car's last race (2014 HSR Walter Mitty at Road Atlanta). Exhaust is expelled thru a complete ISC exhaust system which includes a modified Racing Beat header. Power is sent to the transmission, which was rebuilt by ISC, thru an ACT SM clutch with sprung disk mounted to an F1 Racing lightweight chromoly flywheel. Both the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder were replaced with new at the time of restoration. The slave cylinder is fitted with a braided SS line. The transmission is controlled by a short shift kit and an aluminum shift knob. The differential was purchased from East Street Racing. It is a torsion with a new 4.44 gear. The differential came with low mileage driveshaft and drive axles. Engine, transmission and differential fluids are changed after every race weekend. I have been using Valvoline Racing Oil in the engine and Redline fluids in the tranny and diff. SUMMARY: The car has some blemishes from racing (normal rock chips) but is still very presentable as a vintage/historic race car. I have well over $40k in hard money in the car and, as already noted, hundreds of manhours in the restoration effort. The car comes with the matching number 1.6L motor that is complete and ran fine before removal. The matching number transmission is currently in the car and I have another spare transmission. I also have the original Mazda Comp differential, housing, driveshaft and drive axles that came out of the car during restoration. Additionally, I have the several sets of the original Millen wheels that Panasport built for them (7"x15"). I have the original Sparco seat and sliders plus the Sparco blue fabric to recover the original seat. I have the original competition steering wheel and hub, the original analog dash and a trailer full of spare parts from the original Millen effort. If seriously interested, please email me for spares list as it is way too long to include in the ad. Essentially, everything is there to put the car back to its 1990 state if you wanted to use it as a show piece. For vintage racing, the car is more competitive in its current state. I have all the bills of sale starting with Rod Millen Motorsports sale of the car. I have the original SCCA logbook and numerous other documents from the 1990 Millen effort, including setup sheets. Again, this car is a blast to drive, it is very easy and economical to maintain, and consumables (i.e. tires and brake pads) have a relatively long lifespan. If you are just getting into vintage racing or want to downsize as I did to an easy car to maintain at a relatively cheap cost, this is the car for you. Just like most of us vintage enthusiasts who had MG's, Triumphs and the like growing up, I believe the Millennium Generation will have a great interest in vintage racing these types of cars in the future because it's what they grew up with. The price for the car and all the spares and documentation is $30,000. Questions about the 01 car can be directed to me (Art) by either phone (813) 335-1518 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. Track-ready 1991 After modifying, preparing and building assorted Mazdas for other people for nearly 30 years, and Miatas basically since they first came out, I decided to finally build one for myself, and incorporate all that I'd learned to make a fun and reliable car that would be enjoyable to drive on the street, but that could also be fast on the track….and tailored exactly to what I personally feel the Miata driving experience is all about. So while it's not a turbo or supercharged rocket ship, it's definitely fun, fast, and extremely sweet in all aspects. Anyone who knows me knows that I'm borderline obsessive with finding that perfect balance, and with this 1991 model named Rakuza (all my cars get names – feel free to ask the origin of this one) I feel that I've truly found it. Besides figuring prominently (right in front) of the Miatas At MRLS group photos, Rakuza is also mentioned (also with photos) in one of Keith Tanner's books. Needless to say I'm looking for a good home, someone who will truly appreciate this car. Engine
Brakes Rollbar Interior Exterior The car will be available for pickup after the conclusion of this Miatas at Mazda Raceway event (April 27-28). I will include doing a full post-track inspection of the car, plus service with fresh engine oil (Mobil 1), trans and diff oils (Redline). Asking $15,000 for the whole package. |

It's Time to Do Away With C&R FFLs
I recently found myself shopping for some new homeowners insurance. As I have quite a few personal firearms, I asked the agent about the limitations of the policy she wanted to sell me. The agent checked the dec sheet and she asked me if I had a collectors license. I said no. The ensuing conversation got interesting in a hurry . . .

I use Codeigniter to perform insert to mysql (not sure if relevant), I have table column and some data like this after I insert:
[invoice_id][product_id][unit_cost][quantity] [42][1][50][2] [42][2][100][3] [42][5][45][1]
The problem is mysql auto sort it by invoice_id first then product_id like the above.
Before I insert them, my invoice item-list position was :
[42][5][45][1] [42][1][50][2] [42][2][100][3]
I do not want any of this auto-sort because when I retrieve them, they went like the list in database not as in the invoice. I dont think I can use sort for a particular column because they are all random in the first place.
I can only start thinking to add another column [position] contain number just for the sake of sorting it later, or is there a better way without it?
Thanks in advance for any reply.

The room was spacious. It's in the heart of Seoul. There's a bus station in front of the hotel and rail station nearby. Restaurants nearby. The only problem I had was the bed is a little bit hard and the refrigerator was dirty."
We had a great stay in a club room. We had great personalized service from the hostess, Cheer, who couldn't do enough for us. She really made our experience special. The hotel itself is very well situated and close to many transit options. Would recommend a stay here."
Good stay overall, location and customer care a great plus. Overall hotel condition could be better; worn carpeting and rooms need updating. Breakfast in hotel was not that great and very little was available to eat on property during off/late hours (snacks in the vending machine would have been a major plus)"
1 night stay only as need to catch early morning flight. good pickup and drop of service to and fro airport. I got Indian food there thats plus although menu is limited but something."
very unusal hotel enterance/reception.. but comfy inside. more like apartment, not hotel. close to airport. free public airport shuttle available every 10-15 mins."
The hotel was good overall. I arrived at hotel around 10:30pm and asked wakeup call at 5:30am but they never called. It's only one I was uncomfortable. Fortunately, I could get up at 5:30 using my iPhone."
Was in Busan for two night stay to just sightsee. Location was great and close to many food options just down the street. Partial beach view wasn't as nice as I thought but proximity to beach was a plus. Room only offered one pillow and was a bit older than I thought but otherwise fantastic and well kept."
Excellent hotel! Very clean and comfortable. Staff was great. Right in the middle of Nampodong for excellent shopping. Would definitely stay here again!"
Stayed for 7 nights. The hotel is conveniently located to down town area, the metro, and just across the road from the beach. Its also on top of the Hive night club."
The Hotel is completely newly built - opened in April 2014. Very nice. Staff's english need more practice, but super-friendly and generally great experience. Top floor overflow pool with great views. Suite rooms feature jacuzzi pools."
Very service driven resort. All staff were very professional and friendly."
Great hotel, booked the family room and the deluxe room sea view. Recommend the deluxe room, much nicer than the family room. Disappointed by the super super filthy TV remote control and the dusty windows. Overall nice hotel, value for the price."

BARDSTOWN – The first real outing for the Bullitt Central Lady Cougars was a strong one on Tuesday as they took an early lead at Thomas Nelson and then remained in control the rest of the way before winning 55-43.
The final score was not indicative of the way that Bullitt Central controlled the game. The maroon and gray were on top 54-33 with less than four minutes to play before the Lady Generals went on a scoring run that never endangered who would win the game.
Bernheim Middle School's cross country team competed in the National Youth Championship in Nashville, Tenn., on Nov. 22.
Bernheim had nine runners qualify for the national meet by either finishing in the top 100 at the Kentucky State Cross Country run or meeting the qualifying time for their age group.
Bernheim has a total of 30 runners ranging from kindergarten to 8th grade.
The Bernheim runners competing in the national meet included:
*Baili Hoten, kindergarten, 17th
*Naomi Mitchell, second grade, 49th
MOUNT WASHINGTON – Even in a modern world with the internet, Birmingham Southern College was not on Bullitt East senior Kelli Rae Alcorn's early radar when it came to selecting a college.
But this is the world of www and Alcorn used it to full advantage. Back in the spring and summer, the senior put her top swimming times into web sites geared to swimming. One of the school's that came back was Birmingham Southern, an NCAA Division III in Alabama.
GOSHEN – Leading 49-27 at halftime after scoring 30 points in the second quarter, you can imagine that there wasn't a lot of angst in the Bullitt East locker room during the break.
Maybe there should have been.
North Oldham bolted out of the locker room in the third quarter, outscoring the Chargers 26-11 to pull within 60-53 heading into the final frame. When Mustang standout Jonathan Henry drained a three-pointer to start the fourth quarter, it was game on.
SHEPHERDSVILLE – Last year was a season to remember for Bullitt County basketball fans and it might well be just as good this winter.
First off, all six Bullitt County hoops programs posted winning records a year ago. In fact, each of the teams won at least 17 games.
PLEASANT GROVE – Nobody expected what happened on Monday night in the championship game of the Girls' Bullitt County Middle School 'B' Division Basketball Tournament at Eastside Middle School.
No, not the fact that Eastside won the title, closing out the season with a 28-2 record.
The great mystery was the final score. Eastside rolled early and never looked back as they beat their archrivals, and good friends, the Mount Washington Lady Generals, by a quite unexpected 46-9 score.
HEBRON ESTATES – After winning 22 games last season, with 18 in a row during one point, and with all but one player returning, the North Bullitt Eagles have reason to be excited about the upcoming season.
While the players are always going to be excited at the start of a season, the euphoria extends to the head coach this time around. After serving as an assistant coach at Bullitt East last season, Korey Craddock is back in the Eagles' nest as the head coach.
MOUNT WASHINGTON – Expectations can be a good thing. Unrealistic expectations can be a tough anchor to overcome.
That is what Bullitt East head coach Bob Blackburn is telling the Charger Nation after his team has been ranked among the top-20 teams in the state in various pre-season polls.
SHEPHERDSVILLE – The 2013-14 season didn't end badly for the Bullitt Central Lady Cougars, it just didn't end the way they had hoped it would.
After closing out the regular season with seven wins in the last eight games, the Lady Cougars were peaking at just the right time. Unfortunately, two starters, Lexi Graham and Kasey Renfrow, went down with serious knee injuries in the final games.
MOUNT WASHINGTON – Bullitt East senior baseball player Jacob Bowles will be the first to admit that he has been a 'late bloomer' when it comes to his sport.
In fact, there was a time when his father, Bullitt East baseball coach Jeff Bowles, sat down with is son and mentioned the possibility of having to cut his son from a future Charger team. That was when Jacob was still in middle school, but the message took hold and the younger Bowles worked hard at his sport.

Top performer this year: Smith Barney Aggressive Growth, run by 22-year veteran manager Rich Freeman.
His fund can move among stocks of small, midsize and large companies.
Midsize companies such as UnitedHealth Group, Lehman Bros. and Anadarko Petroleum provided a lot of the fuel last year. He's bullish: "I think the surprises will be on the upside this year."
Many top value funds struggled this year.
Ariel, last year's top All-Star, gained 8.2%, well behind the average midcap core fund, according to Lipper.
For Ariel — and for many lagging funds for the period — the problem was a lack of energy. Ariel didn't own any energy stocks, which provided most of the juice for the stock market last year.
Value funds often become sluggish just as growth funds are perking up.
The All-Stars are picked for steady performance within their categories. One year of excellence won't get a fund on the team. Nor will one year of subpar performance boot a fund off the team. The basic rules:
• Diversified U.S. stock funds open to new investors only. No closed, international or specialty funds.
• Above-average performance within their fund category for the past five years. That booted two excellent funds: Weitz Partners Value and Thornburg Value.
Thornburg Value is within All-Star limits using Morningstar's Large Blend category. But within Lipper's multi-cap core category, it didn't quite make the cut.
• The same manager for the past five years. A record doesn't mean much if some other manager achieved it.
The Clipper Fund was benched because it changed managers. Happily for Clipper shareholders, the new managers are Chris Davis and Ken Feinberg, who run Davis NY Venture, also an All-Star fund.
• Above-average three- and five-year returns.
• Three-year performance can't fall in the bottom 20%. Every fund has its bad patches, but a poor three-year record is a red flag. That rule eliminated Thompson Plumb Growth, Jensen and John Hancock Large-Cap Select.
• We try to choose new funds in the same broad categories as the old ones.
• Above-average success ratio. This measure, developed by Lipper, shows how often a fund's monthly return beat a benchmark index. A low success ratio suggests the fund's return was due to a few periods of outperformance, rather than consistent long-term gains.
We've divided the funds into aggressive, moderate and conservative. But you should examine each fund carefully to see if it suits your tolerance for risk.
You can use All-Stars as a main stock course or a side dish. One strategy: combine selected All-Stars with index funds, which simply track a broad index.

A MAN who admits a charge of wounding will spend another week in custody after a mix-up involving his barrister meant he could not be sentenced.
Connor Fairley was due to be sentenced at Teesside Crown Court for unlawfully wounding Skye Cochrane in September last year.
But while 20-year-old Fairley was being produced for his court appearance in Middlesbrough, his barrister was on another case in Newcastle.
Judge Howard Crowson was told that the defendant's legal team were wrongly under the impression that the case was being heard in a week's time.
The judge described it as "genuine misunderstanding" and said he could not hear the case without listening to representations on Fairley's behalf.
Judge Crowson apologised to the defendant, who is in custody, for the inconvenience.
Fairley, of Ranksborough Street, Seaham, County Durham, was remanded in custody. The case will be heard again on Monday.

Paying taxes by the mile?
Great gas mileage is turning out to be not so great for governments, which stand to lose a chunk of all those taxes drivers pay with each gallon of gas. Yet even as many buy more gas-miserly vehicles and the government requires greater and greater fuel efficiency from auto makers, drivers are still driving. That means all the ongoing […]

The 33-cent gas solution
Our opinion: A proposal for state gas tax holidays casts aside conservation and responsible budgeting. We are no fans of high-priced gasoline. Give us a muscle car and 30 cent-a-gallon gas, and, hey, as long as you're at it, toss in 50-cent drive-ins, 10-cent burgers, nickel Nehis and $15,000 homes. But perhaps we're dating ourselves […]

The 33-cent solution
Assemblyman Jim Tedisco, R-Schenectady, and state Sen. Greg Ball, R-Patterson, are proposing a bill that would, presumably, shave 33 cents of the price of a gallon of gasoline: three tax holidays a year. The two propose suspending state gas taxes for four days at a stretch on the long Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor […]

Look closer at this clean energy
Our opinion: Getting natural gas out of the ground turns out to be pretty dirty business. Energy shouldn't come at the price of drinkable water and clean air. The natural gas industry likes to portray its product as abundant, domestic and clean. Perhaps it thinks two out of three isn't bad. We don't. Nor should […]

Standards can blunt effect of oil prices
There's not much that can be done to bring down the cost of gasoline, say Dan Becker and James Gerstenzang in The Los Angeles Times. But we can immunize ourselves from the impact by mandating lower emissions and higher gas mileage, they say.

Reduce energy use to reduce safety risks
Among the many lessons to be learned from disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima is that a supply of cheap, safe energy is not the only solution, says Henry Shuckman in the Los Angeles Times. Another solution, Shuckman says, is reducing demand. Turn out the lights.

A solar light at the tunnel's end
Today's editorial: A University at Albany grant will further solar energy research. A sustainable energy future depends on real investment in research and development.

A bad lesson in censorship
Today's editorial: The state Education Department's silencing of unpopular views isn't in the best interests of informed public policy or open debate. _______________________ One might reasonably assume that the state's top staff geologist would have some relevant thoughts about drilling for natural gas. But good luck finding out what's on Langhorne B. Smith Jr.'s mind, […]

Nuclear safety must be top priority
"Now, as Japan struggles to contain four out-of-control reactors, all of us — whatever our views of nuclear energy — must focus not on assurances that it can't happen here but rather on ensuring it never does," says Joel R. Reynolds in the Los Angeles Times.

The Collins High School girls' basketball team sent its seniors out with a bang Thursday as the Titans rolled to a 42-18 win over Lexington Sayre.
"We played well, it was good to get a game in and get a win," Collins coach Phillip Conder said. "Today was all about our seniors and making sure they had a great day. Mary (Borders) and Shai'anne (Moorman) have meant so much to this team and we wanted to make sure they got a good sendoff."
Reflecting on a two-hour program she will present on the Underground Railroad, local historian Diane Coon took a deep breath that at first seemed like she didn't know quite where to start.
"For the Tapestry program, I did a real short version of the Underground Railroad in Shelby County," she said. "WhatI'm going to do Friday is to give a much larger picture of slavery and anti-slavery and the Underground Railroad."
But it quickly became apparent that some of the hesitation was because it was an emotional topic for her.
A Shelbyville man has been charged with several felonies in connection with an attempt to promote prostitution, police say.
Perry Starks, 50, of 931 Bland Ave. was arrested Tuesday and charged with third-degree rape, promoting human trafficking and unlawful transaction with a minor.
For decades our commonwealth has been known for fast horses, basketball and Kentucky Straight Bourbon.
With growing crowds, it doesn't seem that the Kentucky Derby's appeal will ever diminish. And the NCAA championship game has featured either the University of Louisville for Kentucky in each of the last three years, making it obvious that our state's top universities in Lexington and Louisville have no intention of relinquishing our stranglehold on the country's best hoops teams.
For Deion Cochran it's as simple as one-two-three.
Cochran, a 6-foot-2 senior guard for the Collins High School basketball team has led the state in free throw shooting every week of the season but one. As the season ends, he's a scorching 90.4 percent from the line, emphasizing the "free" in free throw.
"It's not really anything special for me, it has always just come natural to me," Cochran said. "I always take three dribbles, try to remember to breathe, bend my knees and shoot."
"We have sold a ton of snow shovels, sleds, salt, if it has anything to do with snow, then we're probably out of it," said Joe Jennings, owner of Chism's Hardware, Wednesday.
His manager, Linda Smith, agreed as she pet the store's cat, Gilly, who purred warmly.
"But we've got some more coming in [Thursday]," she said.
She added that she's sure they'll go quickly, as most people procrastinate when it comes to stocking up on snow removal items.
It might be frigid outside but it will be hot in the Spencer County High School gym next week when the 30th District Basketball Tournament tip off.
The Collins boys have secured the No. 1 seeds, but there will be few easy games in what has turned out to be a very balanced district where Collins, Shelby County and Anderson County are all primed for a potentially long post-season run.
The White-Crowned Sparrow is a common winter resident throughout Kentucky and is often found in fairly large flocks, but it is not real common in the heavily forested eastern portions of the commonwealth.
They are frequently seen in semi open habitats where there are lots of weedy fencerows and also they congregate at bird feeders that are on the ground and filled with mixed birdseed. The White-Crowned Sparrow usually feeds on the ground, near cover, so they can make a quick get away.
Cornerstone Christian Academy celebrated its 2015 Homecoming in January. The students celebrated spirit week activities, which included special dress days for students and staff.

I have a grandson who will be six years old next month and is autistic. He is taking 35mg of strattera a day and soon will be raised to 40mg. to help him focus more and to treat aggression. Since he has been taking it for 5 weeks I have noticed he is less verbal, emotionless,he has trouble falling asleep at night, his appetite is poor, and no desire to interact with people like he did before. I'm worried this drug is hurting more than helping him and really need some guidance on this issue. He is currently in a study with the drug strattera and am in dire need of your professional opinion!!!

His doc needs to know about this change in him. Is he in the study through his doc? It sounds like you're describing my grandson except hes a teen now. Its so hard to do anything about autisim with meds, since there is nothing specific for it. My daughter decided she wasn't going to meds without trying other things, and she cut the sugar and red food coloring in his diet and it made a huge differance in him. He takes melatonin for sleep at night, and that's it. The med can certainly be stopped if he has a bad effect from it.
20 Apr 2013
Hi. I can see you really need answers. I'm not a doctor or professional, but i am a mother of a child with autism. In reading your description of what's happening to your grandson since starting Strattera, I can't help but note that it seems he's become more... autistic. Or he's now lower-functioning than he was. So I'm going to tell you that the same thing happened to my son while he was on Strattera. My son has high-functioning autism. He is 14 years-old now, but we have been on the medication roller coaster since right before he turned 6. First, I want to say that every person's body chemistry is different and so each person will respond differently to the same medication, even if the diagnosis or diagnoses are the same. My son did not do well on Strattera. He had most of the same reactions that you've listed for your grandson.
21 Apr 2013
Hello ecray,
You'll rarely find a professional opinion on this site, as you said you were hoping to find. But you may find some value in the experiences of every day people whose lives have been impacted by certain drugs or medical conditions.
I take Strattera for adult ADD. It's very effective for me. I have no experience with its use in children. If your grandson is part of clinical trials or other research study there should be a team involved. As a grandparent who provides care for him, you should be part of that team. You have valuable input and observations. Insist that you be allowed to participate and advocate for him, or write a letter to the Dr.
Good luck. Please keep us posted. He's lucky to have you in his life
Best Regards,
4N Substances aka Frenchie

Vote on This
State Senator, District 11
Patrick Shannon (R) v. Byron Sher (D.)
Incumbent Byron Sher runs for the state Senate on a legacy of legislative integrity and environmentalism. Sher's record as an assemblyman, and as senator for the last eight months, reveals a conscientious thinker and an effective supporter of the environment, endorsed by the Sierra Club and the California League of Conservation Voters. He's been a leader in energy deregulation and in opposing attacks on environmental reforms. Sher also supports campaign finance reform, sensible Three Strikes legislation and smaller class sizes.
While his opponent, Patrick Shannon, also supports campaign finance reform, Shannon, who served as a policy and criminal justice adviser to Gov. Wilson, takes a "tougher"--and, we feel, politically expedient and unwise--stance when it comes to Three Strikes. And his special-election and current campaigns have featured the usual tawdry political fear mongering around crime. Sher, on the other hand, is opposed to capital punishment--and is one of the few politicians who has the courage to stand up for this politically unpopular conviction. We think Sher is seasoned, wise, reasonable and effective. And we didn't like Shannon's sneaky, last-minute hit pieces--mostly funded by Pete Wilson--in the March special election, either. We'd warn voters to be on the watch for a fresh round of hit pieces against Sher toward Election Day.
Metro recommends Sher for District 11 State Senate.
22nd District Assembly Race
Elaine Alquist v. Karin Dowdy
Republican Karin Dowdy and Republican-turned-Democrat Elaine White Alquist are engaged in a match of accusations and credential flashing to win access to the 22nd Assembly District seat held for the past 30 years by John Vasconcellos.
Dowdy is not convinced that the district will remain in Democratic hands for a fourth decade. "This district is not nearly as liberal as some people want to think it is," she said.
Some pundits say there is little to distinguish between the two, but we think otherwise. Republican Dowdy supports the California Civil Rights Initiative (CCRI), Three Strikes and state Assembly Speaker Curt Pringle. And while Alquist opposes this unholy trinity, it is unclear exactly what she favors, besides, of course, the big three: public education, crime prevention and economic development.
Dowdy, on the other hand, is not to be outdone on education. Having spent the past two years as a West Valley College trustee, she reminds voters that she's the candidate who has lived, taught and raised a family in this district for the past 30 years. She's the one who has a concrete plan for improving education, business and public safety. And she's definitely not the one who has accepted $1,200 in campaign contributions from Pacific Lumber Co., the firm that controls the Headwaters forest.
Alquist responds that she's lived in the area for 18 years and alone has worked on an elementary school board (Cupertino Union School District) setting K-12 education policy. She also cites her business experience. She worked as a finance analyst for Stanford University and started a small marketing research and consulting firm. She tries to downplay accusations that she's riding on hubby Al's coattails by openly claiming she has a lot of friends in the biz.
However, the two are undeniably similar in their postures on the big-picture issues. Both echo the other's stump speech, emphasizing education, crime prevention and economic development. But Dowdy seems to have a stronger, more detailed proposal. She's proposed an innovative plan to restructure K-12's districting policy to one that resembles the community college system. Alquist is simply repeating an adage we've all heard before: we need to better prepare kids for the workforce by funneling more resources into the schools and initiating competency tests. In the end, both are sandwiching issues between party platforms. Dowdy's proposals are meatier, but one more Republican in the Assembly could give Wilson the extra vote he needs for an agenda that favors prisons over schools and divisiveness over inclusiveness.
Metro recommends Elaine White Alquist for State Assembly.
Supervisor, 5th District (Palo Alto-Mtn. View)
Joe Simitian v. Barbara Koppel
It's hard to run a campaign with your feet stuck in cement. Ask Barbara Koppel, former Cupertino mayor, running for county supe against former Palo Alto mayor Joe Simitian. Koppel's campaign for supervisor has been plagued by charges of indiscretion and unethical behavior--including accepting more than the maximum contribution allowed from Hanson Industries, owners of Kaiser Cement and Kaiser Sand and Gravel. Koppel argues innocence of intent and charges bias on the county ethics commission. In fact, both candidates have been lobbing ethical mud balls at each other--and neither is squeaky clean. Koppel also has engaged in some questionable sleight of hand. In the March primary, she sent fliers depicting herself with such Democratic heavyweights as Al Gore. Simitian, however, is the registered Democrat with Gore's endorsement. Koppel is a Republican, and endorsed by local Republican groups and county law enforcement organizations.
At the least, Koppel's actions in this campaign and around Kaiser Cement show poor political judgment and bode ill for her handling of complex county issues. Simitian, on the other hand, is the swift Palo Alto homeboy with law and city planning degrees. Having also served as president on school boards and county associations, Simitian is better suited to handle the big issues a big county will deal with in 1997--including trimming a $1.9 billion budget by millions and financing assistance for those who may fall out of the unraveling federal safety net.
Simitian has a keen grasp of the issues, while Koppel sometimes seems to twist in the wind. Koppel, for example, gets mealy-mouthed on the domestic partners registry, which she calls "premature," but is unable, or unwilling, to clearly articulate why. Simitian supports the registry.
Perhaps most significantly, Simitian has the support of outgoing supe Dianne McKenna, all Palo Alto councilmembers and even three members of the Cupertino City Council, on which Koppel served. We believe Koppel would do an adequate job on the board, but Simitian would do better.
Metro recommends Simitian for District 5 Supervisor.
Supervisor, 3rd District
Pat Sausedo v. Pete McHugh
With more money and support from the political establishment, former San Jose Councilwoman Pat Sausedo still couldn't top Milpitas Mayor Pete McHugh in the primary, leading to a runoff.
McHugh is a big, round-faced Bostonian schooled in the firm handshake and the hearty laugh. He's popular in Milpitas, a town that's grown from butt of jokes to high-tech outpost and shopping mecca during his 20-year watch. McHugh enjoys wide support in the town's Indian, Chinese and Vietnamese communities, and the town has become well-integrated during the McHugh years. Residents say McHugh is a good listener and consensus-builder. His accounting and bookkeeping experience will service him well in overseeing the county's $2 billion budget.
Some city insiders have said he's not an assertive leader. The city has condoned high salaries for employees compared to other valley cities. Recently, as squabbles among city officials degenerated into open warfare over charges against the city manager of harassment, favoritism and free-spending, McHugh's council responded by overseeing endless, expensive investigations that resolved little.
Sausedo is equally asleep at the switch when it comes to holding bureaucrats accountable. As a councilmember, she championed an ineffective and expensive Office of Economic Development, organized junkets to France on the city tab and smiled upon a string of mismanaged downtown projects characterized by cost overruns. When she left office, she opened a consulting practice and cashed checks from developers whose projects she approved in her council district while in office. Developers are now the largest interest group contributing to her campaign. It's worth noting, though, that while she was on the county Planning Commission Sausedo supported the hillside planning policy, the trails policy and the greenline initiative to create a development buffer around the city. We also like her plan to make Project Crackdown a countywide program.
Many Milpitas and Sunnyvale residents favor McHugh for the sake of geographical balance on the board. If Sausedo is elected, three of the board's five members would be former members of the San Jose City Council. Seems a little lopsided to us.
Metro endorses Pete McHugh for Supervisor, District 3.

A while ago I raved about my fantastic find of these $5 each slipper chairs at the Goodwill Outlet. I made slipcovers for them in a nice terra cotta velour, which went with my fall/winter color scheme and my old table and chairs. I've since redecorated... I pulled off the slipcovers one day and had them just the original yellow for a while, and I do like yellow, but I've been all about the white recently so I bought some more white duck cloth ($7.99/yard and I used a coupon) and copied the rust-colored ones. Here are some pictures of me tackling the (very 3-D) slipcovers and using them as a pattern, on the floor of the sewing room!
See where I used the trial-and-error approach to fit the slipcover, taking in the seams after I tried it on?
Here are all the pieces...
I sewed them together, and here's the end result!
There are two chairs.
This time I added some top-stitching to the back and it looks better than without, and it keeps the seam allowance in place.
My next project for the living room is colorful couch pillows! I pulled out a bunch of fabric and vintage pieces I want to turn into pillows and scarecrowed them...
Stay tuned--I am so excited to make some new couch pillows! I have been inspired for a while, lots of pretty pics on the blogosphere...

Lewis Hamilton wins US Grand Prix
AUSTIN, Texas (AP)
Lewis Hamilton wanted to make Formula One's return to the United States something special, for him and for racing.
The British driver did just that Sunday, using a thrilling pass of Sebastian Vettel at the end of a long straightaway to take the lead, then holding off the German for the final 14 laps to win the US Grand Prix, the first Formula One race on American soil since 2007.
Hamilton won that race five years ago and made the move of the day to capture his fourth victory of the 2012 season.
''Wicked!'' roared Hamilton, who pumped his fists, waved to the crowd and danced on the nose of his car after the win. ''This is one of the best, if not the best Grand Prix, we've had all year.''
Hamilton had driven his McLaren car to wins in Canada, Hungary and Italy earlier this season and relished his chance to return to the US Grand Prix, run on the new $400 million Circuit of the Americas.
Hamilton talked of his love affair with the US all week and raced with the stars and stripes of the American flag painted on top of his helmet. After the win, he wore a black cowboy hat on the podium.
Red Bull's Vettel, who had a string of four consecutive victories end two weeks ago, started on the pole on Sunday. The two-time defending world champion was a heavy favorite to win and perhaps even clinch his third consecutive world title.
Vettel finished second and Ferrari's Fernando Alonso was third Sunday. Vettel now leads Alonso by 13 points heading into the final race of the season next week in Sao Paolo, Brazil.
''Bit of a shame to lose first place but I think we did everything we could,'' Vettel said. ''We've been very quick in Brazil the last few years so plenty to look forward to.''
Vettel had dominated practice and qualifying on a new track none of the teams had driven until this week. But Hamilton consistently posted the second-fastest times and served notice he could be dangerous.
Vettel survived the chaos of the start as the drivers surged for the top of the 133-foot elevation at the signature first turn, then whipped around and down into the second before making a slalom run through a series of curves.
Vettel kept clear of the congestion and looked to be off and running to a victory. Hamilton stayed close and looked for his chance on every pass through the straightaway before finding the room he needed.
Vettel led the first 41 laps until Hamilton zipped by as the cars approached the tight corner on turn No. 12. Vettel tried to move to the inside to hold off Hamilton but couldn't.
''I knew that lap was going to be the lap that I was going to try, so I turned the engine up and went for it,'' Hamilton said.
''He had one chance and took it. There wasn't much between us,'' Vettel said. ''I tried to defend ... but I knew that he would have so much more speed that he would get by either side so it didn't really matter what I was doing.''
Alonso had to work hard to stay in the hunt for the drivers' championship.
The Spaniard was set to start in eighth position but got a boost to seventh when Ferrari broke the gearbox seal of Alonso's teammate, Felipe Massa, incurring a five-spot penalty that allowed Alonso to move up.
''The reason for this was for strategy considerations, with the objective of maximizing Alonso's start potential given that he's still in with a chance to win the drivers' championship,'' Ferrari said in a statement. ''It was a decision agreed by both drivers.''
Alonso used the better position to immediately advance three spots in the first lap. He ran into trouble with a bad pit stop when his crew struggled to replace one of his rear wheels, but made up enough ground to keep the pressure on Vettel next week.
''Today it was not possible to keep pace,'' Alonso said. ''They were too far ahead.''
Lotus driver Kimi Raikkonen, who won in Abu Dhabi two weeks ago, finished sixth. Michael Schumacher of Mercedes, a former seven-time world champion who is set to retire again after Brazil, could not capitalize on starting from the No. 5 spot and slipped to 16th.
The 25-year-old Vettel is already the youngest repeat champion in Formula One history. He could join Schumacher and Juan Manuel Fangio as the only drivers to win three in a row. Alonso, 31, won consecutive titles in 2005 and 2006.
''We try to look at Brazil with a possibility to fight for a world championship,'' Alonso said. ''It's something that we fight all through the year and try to fight for position. Only Sebastian is in a better position than us but we should be proud.''

Just a quick question, anyone have any idea what the purpose is for the new Aviva upgrade to "Test & Go Technology"?
They will still ship a 1 time coding chip with each box of test strips, but they instruct you to now throw those away. Must be a savings in manufacturing VS the white coded chips?
They are trying to move to a 'no code' technology like most of the other meters out there. A lot of people don't change the code chip with every new box of stips and this causes errors. So, people are being shipped these black code chips and they are to stay in the meters permanatly. Pharmacies are getting shipped the new meters with the black code chip built in. It will save patients hastle:)
