CENTERBURG Remember the feel of wind in your face and the smell of spring? Enjoy these and more as we jump on our bicycles to explore the newly paved section of the Heart of Ohio Trail on Sunday at 2 p.m.
Interested parties will meet at the new parking lot on the trail in Centerburg Memorial Park (intersection of US 36 and Ohio 314) for this three-mile outing.
We are calling this our break-in the bike trail hike, said Gary Moore, program coordinator for CJRD, and it should be a great opportunity to explore this excellent newly-paved section of trail between here and Mt. Liberty. We will stop at bridges to look for fish or listen for frogs, admire the peak of spring wildflowers and watch for wildlife along the way, so it should be a good combination of recreation, exercise and enjoying nature along the way said Moore.
A representative of the Heart of Ohio Trail Committee will briefly review the trail, talk about recent accomplishments and discuss plans for this trail, which recently received an award for construction excellence. Participants should dress for the weather and make sure their bike is in good working order as safety will be a priority. For more information, contact Beck at 625-5123.

I'm new in the area and looking for rally partners. I am a pretty casual player but I can be serious about advancing my skills on the court. It depends on who I'm playing with. I'm a part-time graduate student so I'm usually around during the daytime and am looking for players who can play mornings or early afternoons.

I am free the next few Thursday afternoons between 12-4 if you'd like to hit. I will be rusty since I haven't played in over a year and a half following a knee injury, but I'm recovered and ready to get on the court. (I'm a 3.5.) There are some good courts around Berkeley, including a few I've never tried, so let me know if you'd like to get together.
Hi Connie,
I have found a few players on this website, and it's always good to have a group of people to play with. I can only play over the weekends or in the evenings though. If that works for you, let me know.
Hi Connie,
I'm free most days during the week after 2pm. I'm in El Cerrito but I usually play in Berkeley. Are you free to play next week?
I am available those times during the week, I live in Orinda but willing to drive to your area, only about 15 minutes.
I have Tues, Wed, Fri available this week. Let me know.
Hi Connie,

While the job of a travel writer does take me away to far-off destinations around the world, every now and then I can't spend the entire day rambling around cities. Yesterday was one of those days.
I spent most of yesterday morning updating my blog from my weekend on the safari. It's tough getting to a computer every day in these smaller destinations, and I didn't have my laptop with me.
In the afternoon though, I took a trip in Durban's 'Sky Car'. What's this you might be wondering? It's an elevator that travels to the top of the Moses Mahbida Stadium. This is why I reckon it's the most innovative – they're making money from the stadium every day. It's 50R for a ticket and the view from the top is the business. It's a definite 'must-see' in Durban.

Bob Lozenge at YES Network ain't swallowing this!
If what Bosch said is true — that Rodriguez juiced before games but his system was clear of banned substances in time for post-game tests — it obviously calls into question the effectiveness of Major League Baseball's drug-testing program. But beyond that, it begs the question: How much did Bosch's drugs actually help A-Rod?
Assuming Rodriguez actually tried to cheat with banned substances, he deserves to be suspended. But based on the results, it doesn't look like whatever Rodriguez took actually helped him all that much.
Bosch said Rodriguez first came to him in late July of 2010. And maybe that timing makes sense: By OPS, Rodriguez enjoyed the best season of his career in 2007, his age-31 season, before his production slipped a bit in 2008, then again in 2009, and again in 2010.
But here's the funny thing: A-Rod kept getting worse even while Bosch was supposedly treating him. His OPS hit a career low in 2011, then dropped again in 2012, and again in his injury-plagued 2013.
...As evidence of A-Rod's artificially improved performance, the 60 Minutes report cited one game. One game! And to top it off, the report shows BlackBerry Messages between Bosch and Rodriguez before the day of his big, chemically enhanced double as taking place on April 3, 2012. The Yankees didn't play an official game until April 6 of that season.
The double cited as evidence of Rodriguez's new-found explosiveness actually came in an exhibition played between the Yankees and Marlins on April 2, 2012, as a tune-up for Marlins Park.
Alex Rodriguez is one of the best hitters of all time, regardless of what drugs he used and when. He was and is certainly good enough to muster a single extra-base hit in an meaningless game. And this particular exhibition-game double came off Carlos Zambrano, who would be out of the Marlins' rotation by late July.
Rodriguez started struggling with his health late in the last decade, so a case could be made that performance-enhancing drugs helped him secure a consistent decline where a clean player might have plummeted out of baseball. But then, one of the long-supposed benefits of PEDs is that they helped players stay healthier and recover faster from injuries.
Rodriguez may have taken banned drugs from Tony Bosch. He just didn't obviously benefit from them.

Bonds was at least smart enough to not threaten to kill Greg Anderson
he got a supplier who wouldn't rat him out, and would even do jail time for Bonds.
Patrick Arnold, a chemist who worked with the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative, said in an HBO Sports interview that Barry Bonds and Gary Sheffield took performance-enhancing drugs provided to them by the laboratory.

Hi There, I am kind of new in the internet marketing subjects. which of these 2 sites can help better in terms of bringing more traffic?
Thank you
Every social network be helpful for the marketing these days. But the need is to provide the quality content and to be live all time and to take part in the discussion and in other activities. As google is planning to use g+ data more for providing the more relevant result of search. So for getting the best result for the site ,people will use g+ more than FB.
I doubt if people have started to use Google plus for promotional purposes. So, as of this moment, I'll vote for Facebook for traffic.
I think facebook is also not good for promotional purposes because you can get good amount of traffics there if able to create related networks otherwise all links from there will be of nofollow nature.
According to me "Name is Fame" and its suitable for this question because facebook is more popular than google+ and so facebook is better than google+ till now. But can expect more in future because its product of google and google can apply more ways to make its more popular.
RS Seo Solution
You can receive good amount of traffic through Facebook. I am not sure about Google+.
G+ is still conquering the market, while FB already has its huge market share. Apart from that and the prospects unpreceedable, both social networks help much to gain traffic.
Facebook can drive good amount of traffic. Google plus has launched but i didn't see anywhere that it can beat Facebook. Facebook is still leading. So my vote with goes to Facebook.
I think Both sites are used for social networking but facebook is established it self very well. so i think facebook is the best.
They're both free. Why not do as much as you can with every free venue available to you?
I still will go for facebook.. it has lots of user friendly features..
Right now its Facebook that can bring you more traffic as Google+ will need time to gain trust of users as it is launched quite recently. So for now I suggest you to use Facebook. Google+ is still in its beta version.
Right now its Facebook that can bring you more traffic as Google+ will need time to gain trust of users as it is launched quite recently. So for now I suggest you to use Facebook. Google+ is still in its beta version.
I don't know ... looks to me like their traffic to be had already on G+. Like the gal said earlier, it's free. It rocks because it's ... free. Facebook rocks and G+ rolls outs ... bigger and bigger ... why play catch up hockey down the road. The time to plus up and circle the globe is now. Grooooooow your own circles! I'll groooooow my circle, grow circle. Just kidding withya' there 'sinz.
Well, answer is simple. Both can build traffic to website, it just depends on personal skills.
Facebook is may call as Google+ is still in its testing mode ;)
Facebook and Google+ both are useful social networking sites to interact with people. The main difference that I observe is that Facebook is old in social network than Google+, so its has more user's. But both the sites have their own functionality that make them unique and useful for users.
I think both can help it depends on how u use them, not which one u use
Facebook is more reliable then Google for traffic
If you want to know which one is the best in traffic bringing, It's better to use the two and study which is better. But for me google is the best but google+ is not yet get the reputation of facebook.
i think You can receive good amount of traffic from both but Fb is better way & G+ is still conquering the market.. but both free then enjoy both....
Facebook is created 10 years ago...It is much more comfortable, because many bugs were found and fixed for this time.
Google + is very "young" yet and it needs time for promotion...

Hey all, I got an question for ya! I know I read it somewhere and I cant remember where and I cant remember how to do it, but how do I get Windows XP to read more than 2G's of RAM? I have 2x1024 PC5300 DDR2 sticks on a FOXCONN board already and I bought 2 more cause I know it can be done, can some one point me in the right direction? Thanks =) Have a Great Summer!!!
Hi there,
Assuming that the motherboard supports 4GB memory or more, you will need to be using Windows XP 64Bit or any other 64bit operating system to be able to get the 4gb memory available under the operating system. In general i has to be 64bit operating system.
Your processor and motherboard have to support 64bit platform as well for you to achieve this, but I dont think it would be a problem as most motherboards and cpus support 64bit platform (though not all).
Hope this is helpful.
Ahh but there enlies the problem that of IM a Gamer and IM not sure how well World of Warcraft wold work on a 64 bit system with all the addons I use and everything, also I read that it was a 32bit XP that could be hacked to take more RAM do you know of this bro? I would LOVE to goto a 64bit, (and yes my board is upgradable to 4gigs) but again being a gamer most gaming Hardware i.e. High end Video cards, Games and have alot of qwarks as I remember so unless it's changed in anyway I need to find out how to change the 32bit system to accept more ram, at least TRy and squeze 1 gig out of it lol. Thanks for the info Unplugged =)
on a 32 bit system you will NEVER be able to see all 4GB of ram because there is not enough address space to map both the Physical RAM and the memory needed by other devices connected to the motheboard (sound cards, graphics cards, modems, network cards, etc). the address space of 64 bit OS is almost infinitely larger than 32 bit so you can map both the physical memory (RAM) and the memory from the other devices. but you should still be able to see more than 2GB. normally you see anything between 2.5 and 3.2GB of RAM when using 4GB in 32bit OS.
this explains it quite nicely.
its difficult to find an application that doesn't work in 64 bit Windows. WIndows does a 32 bit emulation which works at native speed sometimes faster.
WoW should work fine as do so may other games. may even work better.
BUT.... i wouldn't install XP 64. if you want to have trouble-free 64bit experience use Vista 64. The problem with XP 64, although it works mostly fine for workstation related applications, is that it really is a converted version of Windows 2003 64 bit and still bears some resemblance to it in its inner workings. for example, if you try to install windows live messenger in XP 64 you will get a message saying " This application is not supported on Windows Server 2003" and some games will also say the same message.
Best thing really is to use Vista 64 which was designed to be a client 64 bit OS for the general public.
OK sounds good bud ty but I got a question for ya, does Vista (which I have never played with yet, Bad me, BAD me) have the Security like Win XP Pro? Because i HATE the Networking and Security features in XP Home...I run a couple of servers at home just to play around (My PDC, sorry IM old school lol and a FTP Server) with but I do have a domain and I monitor my kids comps on it through my Computer is Vista going to give me the Security features I'm looking for? Looks like I want my cake AND eat it too lol Sorry for the Q's but I have been out of the Industry for a bit, my disability has me bedridden I try to stay up to date but ya know how Technology is lol if your not working with it, forgetabout it lol. Thanks OJ !!!
vista business and ultimate will have all the features XP pro has and more.

Medicaid expansion allows the federal government to return to Alabama $4.5 billion over the next three years at zero cost to us. The UAB study by David Becker and Michael Morrisey (www.soph.uab.edu/beckermorriseymedicaidstudy) shows that if Alabama stays in the program through 2020, Alabama's cost would total $771 million (6.2 percent) of the estimated $12.5 billion in new Medicaid program costs over the 2014-2020 period. The $11.7 billion in program costs financed by the federal government is an increase in direct revenues to health care providers.
The study projects that the increase in Medicaid spending would generate $1.7 billion in additional state tax revenues during this same time period. Net of Alabama's costs, Medicaid expansion would increase the state budget by approximately $935 million.
Hello? Alabama comes out way ahead to the tune of $13 billion to $15 billion.
In addition to generating $20 billion in new economic activity, approximately 232,000 individuals would become insured. By using federal funds to assist our state's poor citizens, the women, children, disabled and elderly who fall into this group will continue to have medical care.
Did you know that some hospitals will lose current reimbursement for the poor when Alabama does not accept Medicaid expansion? That alone will result in the closure of some rural hospitals, devastating communities that depend on those facilities. From an economic standpoint, it will be almost impossible to recruit jobs to a county without a hospital. Note the domino effect.
The uninformed argue that this is just another "entitlement" as if completely unaware that taxpayers are already paying for the poor and uninsured. Now we are being given the chance for federal funds to pay the costs and that is bad?
Our past governors have traveled the world to find companies to locate here. Alabama has paid hundreds of millions of dollars for a mere 1,000 jobs. Industrial recruitment has been absolutely critical to Alabama's development. Yet when another study funded by the Alabama Hospital Association (www.alaha.org) says Medicaid expansion will create 30,700 jobs over seven years, our "Doc" governor claims the study is bogus.
That is nonsense and raw politics at its worst. If the study is only 50 percent or even 25 percent correct, this would still be our largest job creation since the government brought a "Rocket Doc" to Huntsville after World War II, without spending hundreds of millions of Alabama tax money for the jobs.
Alabama's "Doc" governor will continue to state in the months to come how "…he has saved us taxpayers a billion dollars," without mentioning that he has done so on the backs of our public employees.
Remember, as he refuses Medicaid expansion, he has wasted $4.5 billion dollars and thousands of jobs. That is shameful — all because of putting his political agenda ahead of what is good for Alabama.

Though the former quarterback has been at safety for only 10 days, there are signs he is making a push to break into Auburn's two-deep depth chart. Following the Tigers' practice Thursday, head coach Gus Malzahn said Frazier is "in the mix" for playing time.
"I think every day he feels more comfortable," Malzahn said. "It's like anything else. The more that you do, the better you get at it. He's a competitor, he's a smart football player, he understands offensive concepts and there's a good chance he'll be out on the field."
Ellis Johnson, the defensive coordinator, said it was a seamless transition for the former quarterback, who picked up the scheme and immediately started "making some checks those young JUCO guys and freshmen guys weren't making for two weeks."
That's why he's confident Frazier will be just fine.
"Fundamentals and technique and pulling the trigger, seeing and reacting to things right now, he's sort of in slow motion but it's coming along for him," Johnson said. "Once he gets comfortable back there, I think he'll play quite a bit for us."
MCNEAL TRANSFER: Demetruce McNeal is now a West Alabama Tiger.
The former Auburn safety officially enrolled Thursday morning, according to an official release from the school. He began practicing with the football team Thursday afternoon.
"We are excited to be adding Demetruce to our football team," head coach Will Hall said in the statement. "Obviously, he has been a great player at Auburn, but the second thing is, in talking to a lot of people about him from his family, to his high school coaches and some of his coaches at Auburn, we believe he is going to be a good person here."
Hall said McNeal is looking forward to the opportunity to continue his playing career with West Alabama.
"He is excited about coming here and excited about becoming a UWA Tiger, becoming part of a program that has a chance to win a national championship," Hall said. "He understands that he will have to become us and we will not become him."
McNeal was Auburn's top returning tackler, making 90 stops last season. He was dismissed on Saturday afternoon following an arrest for second-degree marijuana possession earlier that morning.
RIGHT TACKLE: As has been the case since the beginning of preseason camp, the starting right tackle position is undecided, Malzahn said. The two-man competition between Avery Young and Patrick Miller continues.
"The good thing is we have more depth at tackle than we've ever had since I've been here," Malzahn said.

Tampa Bay fights altitude and attitude going into its second game this weekend in Denver.
Ten years ago today, I founded the site that'd later become Raw Charge. This post is simply marking the occasion.
More of an inconsistent ramble than a preview -- Tyler Johnson and Nathan Mackinnon are central figures in tonight's matchup... But don't forget the pair of top draft picks from 2009 and the roles they have on their teams.
In all fairness, it was a completely different internal organization last time Riku Helenius foudn himself the odd man out with the Bolts AHL affiliate... But it would seem much of the same has transpired as it did in 2009-10.
The Bolts promote another top prospect after placing a veteran wing on IR.
As the Islanders rode into Toronto for a game against the Maple Leafs, New York centre John Tavares found a gift in his locker from erstwhile Leafs GM Brian Burke. Why would a former team executive leave a present to a rival player? (satire)

WASHINGTON—The Tennessee Valley Authority restarted the 1,150 megawatt Browns Ferry 1 reactor in Decatur, Ala., today after a 22-year shutdown. TVA now operates six reactors in Alabama and Tennessee with a combined electric generating capacity of about 7,000 megawatts. Below is a statement from the Nuclear Energy Institute's president and chief executive officer, Frank L. "Skip" Bowman.
"The entire nuclear industry commends TVA and its partners in this important project for successfully adding a vital energy facility to their region's electricity infrastructure. Browns Ferry 1 will provide electricity to more than 600,000 homes and businesses in one of the fastest growing regions of the country. We believe this project will mark the beginning of nuclear energy's rejuvenation in the United States.
"Browns Ferry 1 has the capability to economically produce electricity virtually around-the-clock. It also provides another needed clean-air energy source for the region and the nation. The now 104 nuclear power plants operating in 31 states supply more than 70 percent of all U.S. electricity that comes from sources that do not emit greenhouse gases or any of the pollutants covered by the Clean Air Act.
"This makes the restart of Browns Ferry 1 a notable addition to the diverse mix of energy sources that our nation needs to strengthen its energy security and achieve its clean-air goals. In planning to meet these important needs, TVA has proven itself a leader in the quest to achieve greater energy independence for our nation."

NewsPress Release: 11/22/02
MARLBORO, VT Armed with nearly $80,000, community and school support, professional actors and big dreams, a student film producer and crew are planning to take on Hollywood.
Marlboro College students have put a wrap this month on the filming
of a feature length movie on 16 mm film that has become a campus
wide project.
"It's a huge project, and an insane amount of work," student producer Matthew Temple said.
|Geoff Eads '01 and Brad Heck '03 with camera equipment.
The film , Senses of Place, was written by Temple, a student at Marlboro. Originally, Temple wrote the script so he could act in the film. But, as the script became longer and the project bigger, Temple took the role of producer.
The film is the story of a young Vermont politician who is running for governor. After a primary victory his wife dies in a car accident, and he returns with his daughter to the family farm. While at the farm , he faces issues from his youth and his own loss. He uncovers what is truly important in his life and must decide whether he can stay true to himself if he returns to political life.
Senior Pat McMahill directs the film. Both McMahill and Temple are using the film as their Plan of Concentration. The Plan is a requirement of each Marlboro student their senior year.
Marlboro College Graduate Carrie Sterr is assistant director and co-writer.
Actors Henry David Clarke and Rusty Dewies discuss the script with Patrick McMahill '03.
Jay Craven, the film and video professor at Marlboro, is faculty advisor to the film. There are also 26 Marlboro students participating in the film in areas from lighting to acting. The entire school is behind the production, even giving the project $2000 from the community account.
"Film schools don't allow it (this type of undergrad project). Marlboro did have reservations, but allowed me to do it," Temple said.
Craven encouraged and supported the film in many ways, according to Temple.
"Jay helped a lot. He said 'call these people, and talk to these people.' He was pretty blown away. I think he doubted me at first but gave me incredible support," Temple said.
The project is the product of many people's hard work. The original screenplay was very short. But, things changed. Temple showed the script to McMahill who expressed interest in working with the film. The script and project got bigger the more people he showed the screenplay.
Initially, Temple knew nothing about film production, but he knew he wanted to see the film be successful. He also had a director, assistant director and faculty advisor with a wide range of experience.
"Everything is on schedule," Temple said.
Temple has hired two professional actors, Rusty DeWees and David Storrs, with the remaining parts being filled by local actors and a student from Marlboro.
The equipment was rented and the filming was shot in various locations throughout Vermont. The crew often worked 12-hour days, including weekends that began at 6 a.m.
Temple plans to submit Senses of Place to film festivals throughout the United States including: Sundance, Vermont International Film Festival, Slamdunk, New England International Film Festival, Slamdance and Northampton Film Festival.

All of this because of one punch – one senseless punch
New Year's Eve. The one day of the year that almost every country celebrates the passing of time and every person stops to re-evaluate the last 12 months. They laugh about the good, cry about the bad and become excited about the possibilities ahead. In 2009 I was no exception. I had the world at my feet – until my world shattered beneath me.
I was working as the Officer in Charge of Minyerri Police Station, based in the Minyerri Aboriginal Community in the Northern Territory. My husband, Brett, and I had transferred to the Northern Territory Police from NSW with our three children. We were based at Katherine, Brett being a Sergeant himself, and I had moved to Minyerri temporarily as part of the Government intervention.
I travelled back to Katherine on New Year's Eve to see my family and also stock up on local supplies. I recall asking Brett what his plans were for the night, since he wasn't working, and he replied by saying that he was taking the children for dinner and having an early night. I laughed, saying that it was New Year's Eve and he should go out and have fun. I regret those words every day.
Brett did go out. He took my advice and enjoyed the night with friends. Until, for reasons unknown, he was approached by Michael Martyn.
A little after 3am on New Year's Day I received a phone call to say that Brett had been involved in a fight. He was unconscious and the ambulance personnel needed to know his medical history. At first I was confused, and then I was angry. I was angry at Brett for going out, getting in a fight and leaving my Dad to care for our children whilst he was being stitched up. The thought of anything more serious than that never crossed my mind. I made the decision to drive back to Katherine in the early hours of the morning and went straight to the hospital.
Brett was lying in the bed, intubated and in an induced coma. I was told that he had been punched once to the face and he had fallen back, hitting his head on the concrete floor. As a result he had suffered a fracture to the skull. The fracture itself was large and Brett was completely non-responsive.
We were flown to Darwin Hospital where he underwent emergency surgery. I had no idea what to do or what to expect.
Brett had suffered bleeding to the brain and his brain was continuing to swell. The doctors were having trouble controlling the swelling and where the blood had formed a clot, the functions of that part of the brain ceased to work. They needed to remove part of his brain and also remove his skull so the brain could swell. All of this because of one punch – one senseless punch.
Brett's condition never improved. As a family we decided to remove his life support and I laid on his chest, listened to his heart stop, and said goodbye. He was gone.
Michael Martyn had been arrested shortly after the incident and was charged with manslaughter. CCTV was captured inside the night club which showed Martyn approach Brett and an argument ensued. The situation quickly escalated and Martyn pushed Brett to the floor. When Brett got up, he became distracted by other patrons.
It was then Martyn came from behind another and punched Brett once in the face, knocking him out on his feet and causing him to fall undefended onto the ground. One punch. The only punch thrown throughout the incident and thrown when Brett was not even looking.
Martyn pleaded not guilty and the criminal proceedings commenced. This started with an oral committal held in Katherine and included numerous witnesses. Brett's mother and I sat through every day of evidence, listening to the relatives and friends of Martyn accusing Brett of instigating a fight, and not being able to have a voice.
I had seen the footage and I knew the truth. Yet as a victim, it felt like the trial was all about the defendant. Brett was gone – out of sight, out of mind. In this case there was no "two sides to every story" because one side had been silenced.
At the conclusion of the committal, Martyn was committed to stand trial for manslaughter. Once again, Brett's family and I sat through days of finger pointing, days of graphic images and the replaying of the video footage. And in the end, Martyn was convicted of manslaughter. He was initially sentenced to three years and eight months with a non-parole period of one year and ten months. This was for manslaughter – for taking another life and leaving three children without a father. This sentence was appealed but only increased to five years imprisonment, with a non-parole period of two years and six months. I felt defeated.
I am now fighting to have new legislation implemented in the Northern Territory. This legislation specifically deals with unlawful assaults causing death. It is my belief that if you decide to unlawfully assault a person, and that person dies, then you are guilty – simple as that. The prosecution should not have to prove that you were reckless or negligent. They should not have to prove it wasn't an accident. If someone decides to throw the punch, then they need to know they will be punished.
If this legislation was in place at the time of Brett's death, based on the CCTV footage obtained, then I can't see how a not guilty plea could have been entered. This legislation will help to stop families having to endure a criminal trial, and bring closure much sooner.
Martyn was found guilty in June 2010, almost 18 months after the incident occurred. It is also my hope that this legislation will act as a deterrent to anyone who may think about engaging in senseless violence – because life is too precious and we need to live it whilst we can.
Amee Meredith is campaigning to introduce a specific crime of "one-punch homicide," after her husband Brett was killed in an assault in 2010. Amee will appear on SBS's Insight program tonight at 8.30pm on SBS ONE.

Greg says:
Unfortunately this won't be a deterrent to the idiots who do these kinds of things. The jacked up thugs who go out looking for fights and those who punch anyone who looks at them the wrong way.
The only benefit to this law will be the hopeful increase to sentences to be somewhat inline with what the public expects.
Anjuli says:
I have always said if the person wasn't punched then he would not have died ,it is not the pavements fault that these people hit their heads .Hope she is successful in getting this law changed these perpetrators should not be let of for them to do it again.
Lloyd says:
It is outrageous. I am sure he didn't intend to kill your husband, but as you say, do the crime, do the time. The latest tragedy with Thomas Kelly has been well publicised: any man now knows that as cliched as it is, one punch really CAN kill. As well as jail, he should be made to do mandatory community service in a brain injury ward.
Rolfey says:
Keep fighting the fight Amee. I still can't believe what happened to Brett and everything with the court case afterwards…
Stay strong mate - Rolfey
Simon says:
There is a tendancy to understimate the amout of forethought that goes into these attacks. Many will go out with the intention of causing a fight. I know this because I've associated with them in the past.
I think heavier sentences WILL act as some sort of deterrent. Thugs act wrecklessly because they are aware the risk to them personally, is minimal. Even in the worst case scenario such as this, they serve a year a half in prison. Considering the degree of the crime it's a slap on the wrist.
Fully supportive of what you are trying to do Amee. All the best.
M says:
Sorry Amee, but I believe we should have more rigorous enforcement of our current laws rather than introducing knee jerk legislation.
Luthien Nienna says:
Thank you for sharing your story Amee. I am so sorry for your loss, and wish you and your children the very best for the future.
AJ of Here says:
There is no deterrent not because the laws are weak but because the JUDGES are activists. A charge of manslaughter has a maximum term of 20 years. What did the tool get? 3.
You can have all of the legislations you want, but if the activists won't use them, then they are all meaningless. Any campaign against violence and stronger sentences would be better off being directed at removing the activists from the benches and replacing them with good, solid, upstanding people who are willing to uphold the law and not their individual pet causes.
gobsmack says:
The decision of the appeal court can be found here:

It's a short decision and makes interesting reading.
It's good night from him says:
Alcohol = Violence
If society wants to end 95% of violence, remove the grog from people who can't handle it, impose curfews, and harden the f**k up re the sentences of the offenders!!
ryan says:
It really sounds like the guy who dies was not only the instigator, but the aggressor in the entire situation. He deserved to get punched, though probably not to die.

WHERE PAST MEETS PRESENT: Razia Jan bridges two rooms at the Zabuli School for Girls, one outfitted with 21st century technology, the other a testament to Afghan tradition. Here she wipes away tears after one of her students, Madia, 4, speaks to the village elders in perfect English. Photo by Karen Wong
For two days Razia Jan anticipated the meeting she arranged with the men she calls the Village Elders. The group -- fathers, grandfathers, other senior male family members of students at the Zabuli School for Girls and Women – meet with Razia several times a year, but this time would be different. She had to tell them an American journalist was coming to do a story on the school and she wasn't sure how they would react.
After greeting the school administrators, some teachers and several girls who tried to suppress charming giggles, Razia went upstairs to the computer classroom where a dozen elders dressed in traditional Afghan clothing were already assembled.
{gallery}razia/gallery1{/gallery}The room itself was symbolic of Razia's mission to bring modern education to girls in a very traditional country. On one side of the large classroom was contemporary furniture, posters extolling the benefits of technology and ten computers with flat screen monitors. The other featured a handwoven Afghan rug in traditional red beneath upholstered wooden couches with a somber portrait of President Hamid Karzai watching all that went on in the room.
The bearded elders with their customary hats, loose fitting white and tan long shirts called kurtas and pants with dark vests and loafers remained stone faced and seated as Razia and Natasha Latief, a friend and women's rights attorney, entered the room. Administrator Mohammed Zia and Principal Razia Mausaver were also present.
The conversation began in soft-spoken Dari. Not much time passed before a barefoot attendant entered with a tray of steaming cups of green tea. The conversation continued as the men drank the customary tea and ate light, yellow cake. Their voices became stronger and intense at times. After about 30 minutes, a group of five kindergarten students and their teacher entered the room and walked over to Razia with outstretched arms. The girls turned to the elders and began speaking in Dari and then in English. The youngest student at the Zabuli School, Madia, not yet four, appeared timid, but spoke with a strong, confident voice.
"I am learning English because English is the international language," said the girl.
As Madia spoke, tears streamed down Razia's face, betraying her pride in and love for the little girl -- along with the tremendous heartache she carries for the family. Madia's father was a respected security guard at the school until a little more than a year ago when he was shot and killed in a family dispute. Madia's older brother attended the Zabuli Girls' School last year so he could be in the place where his father worked, Razia recounted earlier. At the conclusion of Madia and her classmates' demonstration, the elders were clearly moved and gave gentle applause to the students. Some of the men said that these girls knew more than many men.
They called Razia the "Mother of Deh' Subz." While Razia has conferred with these men before, she was pleasantly surprised by this one.
"This meeting did surprise me for the men being so positive about everything we do with students at the school," said Razia.
What started for Razia as a campaign to bring textbooks to the Afghanistan university system turned into the creation of a girls' school not far from Kabul. The Zabuli School for Girls, the first girls' school in the historic district of Deh' Subz, was built on the site of an abandoned boys' school. Following the Taliban's rise to power in 1994 after a decade of war with the Soviets, Afghan culture has done its best to keep girls and women illiterate. That changed with the American invasion in 2001. Soon thereafter, schools for girls began to open, including the doors of the Zabuli School for Girls and Women with an initial enrollment of over 100 students in 2008. Since the U.S. announcement that it will pull out of the region in 2014, the Taliban has experienced a resurgence and has closed nearly 500 girls schools in recent months, according to the Afghan Education Ministry.
Today at Razia's school, there are 355 girls ranging from kindergarten to grade eight with the hope of expansion to grade twelve. Razia was adamant that the school be built with walls and a foundation that could support the eventual addition of a third floor. That expansion was part of her goal in meeting with the village elders.
The men, who weren't used to discussions with women, embraced the idea of including a high school. One elder said, "You can go to the Ministry of Education and tell them what we need and nothing is done, but Razia comes in and gets this (the school) done."
Gaining the trust and approval of the men in the community is essential not only to fill the seats in the classroom, but also to ensure the security and longevity of the Zabuli or any girls' school in conservative Afghanistan.
As Shair Agha, a white bearded elder said, "Razia's name will be here for thousands of years. Even when Razia is gone, her name will always be part of this school and she will be known as the Mother of Deh' Subz."
With the blessings of the elders for expansion, Razia and her Ray of Hope Foundation were left with the ever-present challenge of raising the funds to build, furnish and supply the high school classrooms. The existing school was built at no cost to the community and all students attend school tuition-free. The Ray of Hope Foundation pays for everything, according to Patti Quigley, executive director of Razia's Ray of Hope Foundation.
"Ninety percent of donors are individuals from Duxbury, Wellesley and Concord, Massachusetts, as well as Washington, DC, Omaha, Nebraska and Bartlesville, Oklahoma," said Quigley. "In all these areas, the Rotary Club has been a great point of contact along with Rotary Club International."
But to add another floor, new textbooks and supplies would take funds Razia doesn't currently have. Like so many times before, she vowed to find a way, but how?
Then her phone rang with what may be the answer to so many prayers.

After the successful meeting with the Village Elders on June 27, Razia Jan had an added zip to her already energetic step. Having the support of the men in Deh'Subz to build a high school floor atop the Zabuli School that already housed grades one through eight was an important first step. When Jan got home from school that day, she shared the good news with her cousin Shuja who lives with his family in Scottsdale but was spending several mont.hs in Afghanistan. She was about to call Patti Quigley, the executive director of Razia's Ray of Hope Foundation, when one of Jan's two cell phones rang
It was CNN Producer Allie Torgan calling to confirm CNN's interest in Jan as a CNN Hero and to say a video crew would be coming later in the week to observe Jan at the School. Jan was visibly moved by the call.
"I was surprised and honored to get recognition for my struggle to help educate the girls and women in Afghanistan," said Jan. After speaking with CNN, Jan immediately phoned Patti Quigley to tell her the great news.
It was early June when a CNN Hero producer contacted Quigley to say that Jan was being considered. Allie Torgan and other producers spent a great deal of time interviewing Jan's colleagues and Ray of Hope board members to determine if Jan should be a Hero. A few weeks later, Torgan emailed Jan. Before going further in the process or sending a camera crew to the Zabuli School, Torgan wanted to make sure the attention would not put the students or Jan at risk for attack. The Afghan Education Ministry reported that this year alone, 500 girls' schools were closed by the Taliban.
"She told me that I was nominated," said Jan. "She wanted to make sure that it was okay with me and it was okay with the school."
Fridays in Afghanistan are a holiday for schools and many businesses, but Friday, June 29 was the day Jan met the CNN Heroes crew at the Zabuli School for an interview. A translator and security guard accompanied CNN Producer Sumnima Udas and cameraman Sanjiv Talreja, who are based in India. Udas interviewed Jan in one of the classrooms for three hours.
"The crew was very professional," said Jan. "They knew exactly what they wanted to film. They had sheets with hundreds of questions."
Sumnima Udas and her crew returned to the school over the next two days to tape the students and Jan in the classrooms and on the playground. They also took video around Deh' Subz and traveled to the home of Momen Yer who has three daughters at the Zabuli School.
"Nadia and two other girls were interviewed," said Jan. Momen Yer's daughter Nadia is in seventh grade and is a top student at the Zabuli School. "Also Nadia's uncle (was interviewed). It went really well."
After three long days of taping, Jan and all those involved with the Zabuli School and Razia's Ray of Hope Foundation could not openly discuss the CNN Heroes visit. CNN Hero Nominees are not considered CNN Heroes until their stories air on the CNN Web site or broadcast on television. Waiting wasn't easy.
It took time to edit the hours of video and then breaking news events delayed the airing of Jan's profile so Quigley and other Ray of Hope Board members could only wait and wonder if Jan would actually be named a CNN Hero. Finally, word came on the evening of August 2 that Jan was the CNN Hero of the Week.
Upon getting the news, Razia's Ray of Hope Executive Director Patti Quigley was delighted.
"I was elated and a little bit surprised because I put the nomination in a year ago," said Quigley. "I hadn't heard anything and didn't know they were still looking at it."
Quigley, who's been a volunteer with Razia's Ray of Hope Foundation since its inception in 2007, said she was thrilled for Razia, noting the added attention from CNN will mean more credibility for their work both at home and abroad. Since CNN first aired its segment on Jan August 2, the Ray of Hope Web site had thousands more hits and a boost in donations to the non-profit foundation.
"The main reason why I nominated Razia was because I thought with all the work she does for everybody else, it makes sense for her to get a really prestigious award," said Quigley. "The credibility that goes along with receiving a CNN Heroes award would really help her cause."
CNN Heroes are selected from viewer nominations. Last year, more than 10,000 nominations were received from 100 countries. Each week, a CNN Hero is profiled on the global networks of CNN. In September, the Top 10 CNN Heroes for 2012 will be announced. From the Top 10, viewers select the CNN Hero of the Year via online voting, according to CNN. The Hero of the Year will be revealed during a live broadcast of CNN Heroes on December 2, 2012.
Kelly Flynn, senior executive producer of the CNN Heroes Initiatives said Jan suits the criteria perfectly.
"CNN Heroes is all about recognizing everyday people around the world who are doing extraordinary things," said Flynn. "They aren't necessarily seeking the spotlight, but see a need out there - and commit to making change and helping others. Razia Jan exemplifies this ideal. Her dedication and passion to educating Afghan schoolgirls is remarkable. And when you learn more about her personal story, it's even more compelling. She's in her sixties and stepped out of her comfort zone to act on something that had been a dream for decades. I think her story just goes to show that you are never too old or too young to change the world."
Reacting to the news, Razia's Ray of Hope board member and Duxbury resident Margaret Brook said, "Oh my gosh, I was really proud and thrilled for Razia that her vision and dreams are coming to fruition. I'm proud that her efforts are being recognized. It is so well deserved."
Brook encouraged people to support their efforts by "liking" Razia's Ray of Hope Foundation Facebook Page, following it on Twitter and visiting the Web site to learn more about the school.
"I hope (this award) will have a positive impact on the Zabuli School and it's future," said Brook.
When Razia Jan was asked a few days before the announcement what it would mean for the Zabuli School if she were to be named a CNN Hero, Jan said, "If by any miracle I am a Hero, that will help the Zabuli School to grow and educate these girls for many years to come."
Once she learned she was chosen and had time to reflect how being a hero would change her life, Jan said, "I won't change my work to make sure that the girls are protected and given the best opportunity in life."

You can definitely run fin-tube baseboard with the condensing Alpine and reap significant fuel savings, just not as much as you'd get with radiation specifically designed for low temps. You'll almost certainly hit the low-90s or higher for an average if the system designer has any competence.
Let's say your fin-tube baseboard was originally designed to deliver sufficient heat to keep up with a peak heat load that occurs at 0F outdoor temps, with 180F water out of the boiler, with 145F water returning from the baseboards. Under those conditions a Series-2 cast-iron beastie is delivering ~81-82% efficiency, but the Alpine would be delivering 86-87%.
But most of the time it's way above 0F, and most of the fuel is burned with heat loads of half your peak. The fin-tube can deliver the half-peak load with 140F outgoing water, with ~118F water returning. Under those conditions you'd have to boost the temp on the cast-iron beast to protect it from destructive condensation, and it would be hitting around 80%- maybe less with cycling losses, whereas with the Alpine using it's "outdoor reset" function you could dial the temps back and you'd be hitting 92% or so. During the even low loads of October or April the series 2 would be gagging at 75% average efficiency, and the Alpine could be hitting the mid-90s. As a practical limit fin-tube begins to be less predicable at average water temps below 120F, so you'll probably be "stuck" at mid-90s efficiency under very low loads where you could be hitting high-90s with different radiation, but that's compared to sub-80 under the same conditions with a cast-iron boiler. (If your baseboards are cast-iron, not fin-tube, you can go much lower and still get predicable results out of an outdoor-reset curve.)
The SCG/PVGs do a bit better- you'd hit mid-80s for an annual average with those, as long as they're sized correctly for the peak heat load.
Sizing is VERY IMPORTANT for any boiler, but even more so for higher-mass cast-iron. In order to get the size right, you need a real heat-loss calculation (and "lessee, that's 2600 square feet times 30 BTU per square foot is..." is absolutely NOT a heat loss calculation, almost guaranteed to oversize to the point of diminishing efficiency, with the higher upfront cost of a too-large boiler.) Demand a computer generated room-by-room and whole-house heat loss calculation from any contractor you use, and those who offer it up ahead of time move to the head of the line. This weeds out the first 90%. Those that also do a full combustion efficiency test at time of sign-off on the installation as a matter of course are the cherished 1-percenters.
The room-by-room calculation along with the amount of baseboard in each room ultimately determines your peak water temp requirements (which will affect efficiency independent of boiler type, but more so with the Alpine), and the whole-house numbers determine the maximum size of the boiler. If cast iron, and the whole-house number is between sizes, pick the smaller- it will be more efficient. With most houses one can economically reduce the peak heat load 10-15% with air sealing and spot-insulation type measures, if it doesn't quite keep up (or even if it does- most heat loss calcs have generous margins built-in.) Oversizing by more than 15% from the calculation would take a measurable toll on efficiency with cast iron. Oversizing by 100% is common, but means it will under-perform it's AFUE test ratings by quite a bit.
With the Alpine the most relevant number from an efficiency is the minimum-input BTUs, so being oversized by the max-BTU number shouldn't turn your toward a smaller cast-iron boiler. the cast-iron has only one number- the burner doesn't modulate the flame up/down, but the Alpine does. The lower the minimum number is, the better the efficiency you can tweak out of the system, as long as the max number still meets your peak heating load need. eg. Let's say your heat loss calculation comes up with 60KBTU for a peak heat load- the Alpine 80's output would be oversized by 21% if you took it's peak-BTU output number, and the SGC3 would be perfectly sized, but since the Alpine-80 can modulate down to 16K when it's warmer than your max-heat load temps outside it will run longer & more efficient burns than the SGC3 literally 99% of the time.
The pumps vs. zone-valves question has a lot of "depends", and can only be answered by doing a real design, and sometimes the answer is "either". If you have a contractor that offered up the heat-loss calc without prompting you can probably just trust them on the rest of it. If one or both of the zones are pretty small, don't be surprised if the designer recommends putting in a buffer-tank to raise the thermal mass of the system (or just one zone), since that would raise the average efficiency by keeping the boiler from short-cycling while serving that zone.
Don't be surprised if they also recommend you use an "indirect" tank for hot water heating operated as a zone (or sometimes a "reverse indirect" buffer tank when going with cast-iron). This is a valid way to raise your net space heating & hot-water heating efficiency by using the boiler. It usually results in more hot-water heating capacity too, but at the very low end of boiler sizing it might mean bumping up one size.
If you end up going with SCG/PVG series, the SCG + indirect hot water is preferable, since it means you can the safely air-seal the house, including the now-abandoned flue that would otherwise be sucking air out of and into your house 24/365 without risk of backdrafting exhaust from a boiler or hot water heater into your house. (Alpine + indirect= same story. Seal up that efficiency-robbing summertime-humidity inducing flue!)
With a zip code and a good estimate of your annual oil use (in gallons, not dollars) we could probably hit pretty close on what your whole-house heat load is, as a sanity check. Using the boiler to measure heat load only works if you don't supplement with wood-stoves, etc. though. It can be more accurate than a heat-loss calc, because there's no inherent margin added just in case the house is air/heat leakier than estimated- it's a measurement, not an estimate. Age/size/ratings of the oil boiler would also be useful in narrowing that down too.
Odds are pretty good that the Alpine would use 30% less fuel than a right-sized series-2, and 25% less fuel than a right-sized SGC. Whether there's any payback in that depends on how much fuel you anticipate using, but from a comfort point of view the Alpine would still be a win, delivering more even heat while operating, due to the much longer burns. If you intend to live there awhile there's value in that, even if you can't make a case for it in a net-present-value financial analysis of fuel savings. I've yet to meet anyone with a modulating condensing boiler who wishes they'd cheaped out on an atmospheric drafted cast iron boiler like a Series-2, even with fin-tube baseboards instead of radiation.
