A committee of Gainesville Sun employees selected the award winners from the nominations submitted online by members of the community.
Within the packed Gainesville Sun atrium Wednesday stood a psychology professor, a referee, a pizza franchise owner, a community activist and a theater showrunner who embody the spirit of Gainesville.
The five were plucked from a pool of 100-plus nominees for the second annual Spirit of Gainesville Awards.
About 200 guests took part in Wednesday evening's festivities and waited to discover who among them had won. The winners were Mary Hausch for the arts, Carolyn Tucker for medicine, Ray Crone for sportsmanship, Fred Wehbe for entrepreneurship and Dorothy Benson for community service.
A committee of Gainesville Sun employees selected the award winners from the nominations submitted online by members of the community. The Sun recognized local residents for decades through its yearly Community Service Award. The Spirit of Gainesville Awards, first presented in 2011, broadened that concept.
Mary Hausch, co-founder and producing director of the Hippodrome Theatre, won in the arts category. Now in its 40th season, the theater donates more than $200,000 in tickets annually to nonprofits for use in their fundraisers.
Hausch thanked the artists, businesses and other organizations that have supported the theater since its inception. She also thanked the 4.5 million people who have attended shows at the Hippodrome over the years.
Carolyn Tucker, a University of Florida professor with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology who has partnered with area churches to create health-related events as part of her "Health-Smart Churches" plan, received the Spirit of Gainesville Award for Medicine.
Tucker, the director of the UF Health Disparities Research and Intervention Program, will expand her efforts to African Methodist Episcopal churches located throughout the state thanks to a grant from the Blue Foundation for a Healthy Florida.
After the ceremony, Tucker said she was surprised she won.
"It really does take a village," she said. "I have wonderful students, wonderful community partners and, of course, the people that we serve are wonderful."
UF doctoral student Manny Lopez said he nominated Tucker, who has taught him since his undergraduate years, because he feels her health research focuses on the community and has helped many residents lead healthier lives.
The Spirit of Gainesville Award for Sportsmanship went to Ray Crone, a physical education teacher at W.W. Irby Elementary School and a multi-sport referee for more than three decades. Crone, a Gainesville native, also dedicates time to volunteering and leads the Irby Elementary School Jump Rope for Heart fundraiser.
"I'm really humbled to be here," Crone told the crowd, citing his former physical education teacher and coaches as people who instilled the spirit of Gainesville in him at a young age.
Freddie Wehbe, franchise owner and marketing manager of Gator Domino's Pizza, received the entrepreneurship award. He and Domino's sponsor 60-plus events locally every year and Wehbe is a member of advisory boards like Keep Alachua County Beautiful and the Gainesville Chamber of Commerce.
He said this award goes to his employees at Domino's and cited a quote that he lives by, which explains the community will support a business that supports the community.
The final award recipient of the evening was Dorothy Benson, chairwoman and co-creator of the Southwest Advocacy Group, or SWAG, who won the community service award for her efforts to help the southwest Gainesville community.
Through SWAG, she helped garner support from Alachua County government and other organizations to open a family resource center.
Gainesville Magazine Editor Jacki Levine, who presented the award, said Benson's work showed her definition of "neighbor" extends far beyond the borders of her Haile Plantation subdivision.
"Wow," Benson said as she reached the podium. "I would just like to say that the clinic's a done deal."
Benson, through SWAG, is spearheading the creation of a health clinic set to open off Southwest 24th Avenue in summer 2013. She accepted the award on behalf of the families in southwest Gainesville for whom she and her organization have created these community projects.
As the winners took pictures after the presentation with their crystal awards, other nominees smiled just as wide for photos with their commemorative certificates.
Only five won Spirit of Gainesville awards, but all of them were nominated because, to someone in the community, they represented this city's spirit the best.

ST. PAUL, Minn. – Patrick Sharp rejoined the Blackhawks' machine as if he never was gone. Marian Hossa provided the welcome-back gift.
Hossa's unassisted goal late in the second period lifted the NHL-leading Hawks to their fifth win in six games, 1-0 over the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night.
Ray Emery started for the Hawks for the third straight game and made 20 saves for his second shutout in that stretch and third of the season. He helped hand the Wild their fifth loss in seven games.
"We feel pretty good about our team," Hossa said. "Right now, we've got a fifth line out there with some great players, and they don't get in the lineup. I think we're pretty strong up front. Our defense played great, and Ray's played unreal the last three games."
Hossa looked like a Bears defensive back jumping in front of a wide receiver's route when he darted in front of Clayton Stoner's seemingly harmless breakout pass toward Mikko Koivu in the Wild zone. Hossa intercepted the bouncing pass in front of the blue line, skated up the middle and snapped a shot past goalie Niklas Backstrom's stick with 4:46 left before the second intermission.
"Sometimes we try to use our instincts," Hossa said, adding: "I was at the spot, the timing was right and the puck hit me basically on the tape. Even though he put a really hard pass across, I had lots to do to catch that. I tried to release it so quick."
That was Hossa's first goal since March 16 at Dallas. He missed six games in that scoreless stretch because of an upper body injury, but Hossa still is second on the team with 14 goals.
"I pride myself on trying to play mistake free, and that was a costly one," Stoner said. "I feel bad for letting the team down."
The Hawks enjoyed an even bigger boost when Sharp returned from a 14-game absence because of a shoulder injury. The Hawks went 4-5 over those first nine games without Sharp before getting back on track, but the league's top-scoring team is equipped with enough exceptional skill on its forward lines that it didn't miss much of a beat.
"I think we've got a pretty good thing going here right now," Sharp said. "I was just happy to get back in the swing of things with the team. It's a great team to be a part of. Awesome guys off the ice. They make you feel welcome right away. So it was great to be out there. I think we're a good team, with or without me."
The first team in the NHL this season to clinch a spot in the playoffs, the Hawks outshot the Wild 31-20 to move one step closer to securing the top seed in the Western Conference playoffs. They are five points ahead of second-place Anaheim and have a game in hand over the Ducks. The Hawks (30-5-4) are 16-2-2 on the road, by far the best mark in the league.
Hawks coach Joel Quenneville gave Emery the start again over Corey Crawford. He said Crawford is 100 percent healthy. The way his team has been playing, though, picking the wrong goalie would be hard to do.
"I think there's a lot of confidence, and we're excited for whoever is in net," said star Patrick Kane. "I think right now we're pretty confident in our team. Just try to keep getting better."
The Wild (22-15-2) put themselves in prime position for a spot in the postseason for the first time in five years by going a franchise-best 11-4 in March, but they are far from safe with just a five-point edge over ninth-place Dallas and Columbus. Six of the Wild's final nine games are against teams currently below the playoff cut.
"We've still got some pretty good players here," Wild star Zach Parise said. "We should be able to get some sustained pressure. We did the other night in Columbus. But that's a team that plays really well defensively. I think they've given up the least amount of shots. It's tough to get anything consistently going."
They had their chances, particularly when Cal Clutterbuck got his rebound attempt behind Emery but not enough to nudge it past the goal line. Clutterbuck's second swing missed, and Emery gained control.
The Wild's biggest blow came before the game when they learned right wing Dany Heatley, third on the team with 11 goals, will miss the remainder of the regular season and the playoffs following surgery on his left shoulder.
"You've got to get through it. Good teams can step up," right wing Devin Setoguchi said.
NOTES: Wild C Zenon Konopka's clearing pass landed in an unusual place, on Quenneville's head. The puck bounced off the glass behind the bench before hitting Quenneville, who laughed as he rubbed his gray hair after the harmless blow. ... The Blackhawks are 6-0-3 against the Wild in the last nine meetings. ... Koivu hasn't scored in seven games and hasn't recorded a point in five games. ... The Wild were also without C Matt Cullen (lower body) for the fourth straight game. ... The Blackhawks scratched C Dave Bolland (lower body) for the third straight game. Quenneville wasn't ready to commit to his return on Friday against Detroit.

For the last 6 days, I have not nursed during the day (son hasn't even asked for it, so it was a natural progression) and I nurse 1-2x in the middle of the night (when he screams bloody murder) but it is getting easier to get him back to sleep with just some pats on the back. I sure hope these changes get something started here! And I'm so thankful he is weaning himself so I feel less guilty.

Let me tell you about the peach pits and squirrels. I had a pet squirrel as a kid until I cracked open a peach pit and fed it to him.It is poison. So just crack the pits and leave them around for the squirrels. :evil:
Amen. when all else fails the long barrel works well.
bee happy i use my 22 with sniper subsonics they come in 23gr and 64gr. i think in a long barrel there much more quiet than an air gun. they travel below 5000 ft a second so theres no crack at all.i do ADC work and the law looks the other way. or theres the old box trap and trash can full of water.
danno, you got me thinking so i looked the Aguila .22 SSS sniper SubSonic long rifle shells, these no FPS.on the box or cartion ? there 60 grains and don't work all the actions i have.But the CCI Sub-Sonic HP are 40 grains and have a 1050 FPS. I think The Aguila's are quieter in the long barrels but louder in a pistal.when i trap i carrie a back up pistal with Aguila's in it . At close range they make a mean hole....

The May issue of Commentary contains an excellent analysis of the "road map" to peace in the Middle East by Abraham Sofaer, a former federal judge and legal advisor to the State Department under President Reagan, who is now a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute. Unfortunately, this article is not available on Commentary's website.
The essence of Sofaer's analysis is that the road map is fatally flawed because it "expects to bring an end to Palestinian violence against Israel without addressing the reasons why the Palestinians have deliberately and repeatedly [resorted to violence]." Prominent among these reasons, according to Sofaer, are the policies of the United States. These policies include our support for United Nations programs that foster Palestinian terrorism, such as the refugee camp program and the Palestinian educational system. Sofaer also cites our State Department's frequent censuring of lawful Israeli responses to terrorism. More fundamentally, he finds that we have encouraged Arab revanchism by refusing to take certain issues off the table during negotiations. In this regard, Sofaer argues that we should recognize Jerusalem as Israel's legitimate capital (without foreclosing discussion about the status of East Jerusalem); make clear that there will be no right of return for Palestinians to Israel proper; and abandon the "road map's" dogmatic insistence of pre-1967 borders in favor of a pragmatic approach to Jewish settlements. Finally, we should more forcefully oppose Israel's ostracism by international bodies and the world community. Clearly, there can be no peace until the Arabs of the region openly acknowledge the existence of Israel as a permanent, sovereign state. Yet the U.S. has often acquiesced in the refusal of Israel's Arab enemies to do so. Sofaer asks, "Are we to go on approving, by our silence, a situation wherein a true pariah state like Libya can serve a term as chairman of the U.N. Commission on Human Rights while democratic Israel is refused the right to participate in multilateral affairs?" Unfortunatley, the "road map" has little to say about these sorts of grotesque, but all too typical, charades.
Sofaer sagely concludes as follows: "A road map to peace is a fine thing, but if it is based in denial and wishful thinking it will be rightly doomed. The task for diplomats and all other interested parties is to force an end to the murder of Jews and to the effort to destroy the Jewish state. In pursuit of that goal, it is as necessary to delegitimize Palestinian violence as it is to prevent and repudiate the delegitimization of israel. When that necessary condition is met in word and deed, all manner of desirable and mutually beneficial outcomes will become negotiable; but not before."

WOODSTOCK – Just three weeks before election, two candidates in a hotly contested race could be kicked off the ballot.
Chris Jenner and Erik Sivertsen are two in a field of nine hopefuls seeking a seat on the McHenry County College board. Both men also are running for their local elementary school boards.
Questions arose about whether the men can seek both positions simultaneously.
A 1996 informal opinion from the Illinois Attorney General's Office said school board and community college election positions are "incompatible," therefore election law prohibits McHenry County Clerk Katherine Schultz from printing their names on the ballots
"I don't know why this couldn't have been addressed months ago, weeks ago," Jenner said.
It's still unclear whether the men can run as write-in candidates.
Schultz is seeking legal direction in McHenry County Court documents filed Wednesday. A ruling is expected Monday.
"I've never run into the situation," Schultz said. "I want the courts behind me no matter what."
Jenner on Monday withdrew his re-election bid for the Cary District 26 school board, but Schultz said there still are questions about whether it's too late for him to withdraw.
He called the court filing a "distraction" to his campaign.
"I believe the complaint is without merit," Jenner said. "It only draws attention away from the important issue of the MCC board seeking to violate taxpayers' rights by selling bonds without a referendum."
Sivertsen is still running in McHenry District 15 and doesn't believe there is a problem with his filing.
"The offices are not incompatible, when state law specifically permits holding both offices simultaneously, and there is no legal basis for them to remove either of us from the ballot," he said in an email to the Northwest Herald.
State law says that if a school board member is elected or appointed to a community college board, he or she can serve the remainder of their term, but once that school board term expires, cannot hold both offices.
Schultz is hoping to get clarification by Monday so the ballots can be printed before the April 9 election.
Grace period voting started Wednesday, so the few who have come in to cast a vote were asked to come back another time, or offered to be mailed a ballot. Early voting, which starts March 25, is done on touch screens, Schultz said.

The Albanian flag features a black double-headed eagle on a red field, and the double-headed eagle salute has become a way for Albanians, Kosovars, and members of the diasporas to flex, to represent, to remember. Albanian athletes in other sports have used it after victories, and even Pristina-born Rita Ora has

Xhaka's and Shaqiri's goals won the game for Switzerland, and helped propel their team into the elimination round (they held mighty Brazil to a tie in the first game and tied Costa Rica in their final game; the Swiss play Sweden on Tuesday). Against another opponent, that would have been plenty. Whatever you might know about history, it's hard to understate just how important it was that these two players scored against Serbia.

So intricate is the history of the Balkans that one gesture in a World Cup game can open the door to the centuries of empires and dictators who redrew borders and wedged peoples, religions and languages into fixed systems. From the Ottoman Empire to the fall of Communism and the chain of conflicts in the '90s known as the Yugoslav wars, local identity has often been lost in the mires of history.
Kosovo, previously a territory of Serbia, became an independent republic in 2008. Many countries, including the US, recognize it as a nation-state. Others, such as the 2018 World Cup host Russia, do not. Albania — while not part of Yugoslavia as Kosovo (then a part of Serbia) was — has a long revolutionary past and is going on its fourth republic. They share a language, a culture and a history. As, Gilbert Agimi, an Albanian university student in Tirana put it, "the term 'Kosovar' is a regional term for me."
If you want to wade into these waters, Rebecca West's 1941 book
Black Lamb and Grey Falcon
remains excellent (my first roommate in New York, a Serbian woman, lent me a copy and urged me to read it). On YouTube, you can find the useful BBC documentary
The Death of Yugoslavia
for a summary of the 1990s. For an even longer view, the podcast
Zorap Raffia BlockHeel Sandals Robert Clergerie R0u9pTm9
covers from the 18th century to now.
But of all things, soccer offers a potent entry point for the outsider to get a sense of the greater Balkan Peninsula. In Jonathan Wilson's classic book Behind the Curtain: Travels In Eastern European Football , he described the players from the Balkans as the Brazilians of Europe, "self-doubt suppressing imagination and bringing to the surface the cynicism that has always underlain the technical excellence."
Soccer makes a cloth that ties Albanians living in Boston or Zurich with those in Pristina and Tirana.
In the aftermath of Xhaka's and Shaqiri's celebrations, the Serbian Football Association claimed that the mere presence of Kosovar and Albanian flags in the stands was "controversial." The players were to potentially be punished for "provoking" the crowd. FIFA opened an investigation into Xhaka and Shaqiri's celebrations last week, and the threat of suspension loomed.

Previous: HTML Xref Configuration, Up: HTML Xref [Contents][Index]
Occasionally changes in a program require removing (or renaming) nodes in the manual in order to have the best documentation. Given the nature of the web, however, links may exist anywhere to such a removed node (renaming appears the same as removal for this purpose), and it's not ideal for those links to simply break.
Therefore, Texinfo provides a way for manual authors to specify old node names and the new nodes to which the old names should be redirected, via the file manual-noderename.cnf, where manual is the base name of the manual. For example, the manual texinfo.texi would be supplemented by a file texinfo-noderename.cnf. (This name can be overridden by setting the RENAMED_NODES_FILE customization variable; see Customization Variables).
The file is read in pairs of lines, as follows:
old-node-name @@{} new-node-name
The usual conversion from Texinfo node names to HTML names is applied; see this entire section for details (see HTML Xref). The unusual '@@{}' separator is used because it is not a valid Texinfo construct, so can't appear in the node names.
The effect is that
makeinfo generates a redirect from
old-node-name to new-node-name when producing HTML output.
Thus, external links to the old node are preserved.
Lines consisting only of whitespace are ignored. Comments are indicated with a '@c' at the beginning of a line, optionally preceded by whitespace.
Another approach to preserving links to deleted or renamed nodes is to
use anchors (see
@anchor). There is no effective
difference between the two approaches.

Fishing hooks student-athletesBy PAUL FEELY
New Hampshire Union Leader
March 22. 2013 11:14PM
How many sanctioned high school sports are there where you can take home the trophy and eat it?
That could be the case later this spring, when the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association holds the first sanctioned event in the sport of bass fishing in state history.
"I guess if the winning fish was big enough, they could do that, couldn't they?" said NHIAA Executive Director Patrick Corbin. "But we would give them a plaque too."
Corbin announced Friday that the inaugural tournament will take place May 9 at Lee's Mills in Moultonborough on Lake Winnipesaukee, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
"It's a great location for an event like this," said Doug Hume, chairman of the NHIAA Bass Fishing Committee. "The lake is a busy place, but that is a fairly protected area. We're anticipating a great event, based on the early feedback we're already getting from people."
Each registered NHIAA member school interested in taking part will be allowed one two-angler team to fish from a boat supplied by the NHIAA, and if a school has access to a second approved boat and captain, it can enter a second team. N.H. Bass Nation members will manage the weigh-in, and help pair up schools with available boats and licensed captains to work with the students. Individual medals will be awarded to the largest total catch (four fish maximum) and for the largest large-mouth and largest small-mouth bass caught. Specific information about the tournament can be found at www.nhiaa.org.
The maximum number of teams allowed from any school will be two during this initial trial tournament - in effect an exhibition - but the field could be expanded in future years if enough anglers show an interest.
"This year will be a trial tournament and limited in scope, as we and schools prepare for full implementation during the 2013-2014 academic year," said Corbin.
No one expects new traditions like 'Friday Night Bites' fishing derbies to spring up around the state next school year, but Corbin said interest level in the sport is high.
"Since we first started throwing this idea around last year, just the word on the street about it has generated hundreds of calls to our office," said Corbin. "Everyone wants to know if this is really going to happen. People were excited when we announced we were trying bowling, but it was nothing like this."
Organizers hope a sport like bass fishing will help reel in students who otherwise might not take part in any type of organized high school competitions, and get them hooked on the concept of being part of a team.
"It's very inclusive, which is one of our top goals," said Corbin. "There's not a great cost involved in terms of equipment like some sports."
Corbin said the idea of adding bass fishing as a trial sport came from watching his own grandchildren fish off the dock near his home in Windham.
"I live on a pond, and they can sit out there all day and fish," said Corbin. "I said to my wife, 'Wouldn't it be great if we could add this as a sport? Think about how many kids we could get involved in high school athletics.'"
He said he was nearly laughed out of a council meeting when he suggested it as a NHIAA-sanctioned sport four years ago.
"Then Illinois started it the next year," Corbin said. "That first year they had over 800 kids, and last year it was just under 4,000. The interest in it there has just exploded."
New Hampshire joins the ranks of two other states, Illinois and Kentucky, in sanctioning fishing as a varsity sport. The Missouri high-school athletic association is scheduled to vote on whether to sanction fishing in April.
There are an estimated 10,000 high-school student anglers, according to the Bass Federation, a national organization for fishing enthusiasts.
"Not every kid plays basketball, football or baseball, but there are kids who participate in fishing or hunting," wrote Mitch Smith, events and promotions manager for the Student Angler Federation, in an email. "But there was never an avenue for them. Now they see they have an opportunity to go to college on a fishing scholarship. So it's a really good thing."
Corbin said surveys conducted by the NHIAA show there are more than 1,000 students currently enrolled in districts across the state that would take the bait and join a bass fishing team if offered at their school. Some schools, like John Stark Regional and Bishop Guertin high schools, already have fishing clubs, with more than 40 students involved.
"There are schools wishing we were allowing more teams, because they have kids ready to go on this," said Corbin. "It will be a learning experience, and some things that pop up we didn't think of, but I'm excited about the possibilities here. If we get more kids to try high school sports, it's a success."

In Case of Hazordous Materials
A release of hazardous materials could involve chemical, biological, or radioactive materials. The ability to respond to a hazardous materials release will depend on many factors, including the amount of material spilled or involved in an incident, the physical, biological and chemical characteristics of the material, the material's health and hazard characteristics, the location of the spill, the level of response training obtained, and the types of personal protective and spill response equipment available.
If a hazardous materials release occurs that cannot be handled by an employee, then:
- Alert people in the immediate area of the spill, evacuate the area, and call 911.
- If an explosion hazard is present, take care not to create sparks by turning on or off electrical equipment. Activate the electrical shutoff if a laboratory is equipped with one.
- Confine the hazard by closing doors as you leave the area.
- Use eyewash or safety showers as needed to rinse contamination off people.
- Evacuate any nearby rooms that may be affected. If the hazard will affect the entire building evacuate the entire building. If there is a chance of explosion from the hazardous material release do not activate the building fire alarm. Evacuate the building manually by alerting others by voice. Take care not to turn electrical equipment on or off or otherwise cause sparks. If there is no chance of explosion, activate the building fire alarm system by pulling the handle on a manual pull station.
- Evacuate the building following the procedures listed in the Evacuation procedure. The Evacuation Coordinator must call 911 to verify the fire alarm/evacuation signal has been received. Be prepared to provide as much information as possible on the hazardous materials released.
- At the designated evacuation point, notify emergency responders of the location, nature and size of the spill.
- Isolate contaminated persons. Avoid cross-contamination or chemical exposure from contaminated persons.
The use of hazardous materials at the university requires safeguards and increased security. However remote the possibility, we should prevent the unintentional removal of biological agents, radioactive materials, and hazardous chemicals. By using common sense and the following steps, we can greatly reduce the potential for problems:
- Do not leave laboratories, or other areas where hazardous materials are present, open and unattended. If you leave the area, make sure the door is locked.
- When not in use, return hazardous materials to their proper storage area. Storage areas in unattended spaces should be locked.
- Maintain an inventory of hazardous materials and routinely check these materials.
- Do not allow unauthorized personnel into your work space. Question people who enter your work space and who are unfamiliar to you.
- If you notice any hazardous materials missing or believe they have been stolen, please contact your campus or local police.

At this rate, Seneca High School might need to place an order for a new trophy case.
At this rate, Seneca High School might need to place an order for a new trophy case.
In a year filled with district titles, the school must make room for one more as the Indians hammered Monett 10-2 to win the Class 4, District 11 Tournament at the Seneca Baseball/Softball Complex on Tuesday.
This one was decided in the second inning. After Monett starter Aaron Patton got two quick outs in the bottom of the second, the Indians (20-4) were sparked with a single by senior Marty Mailes, and things quickly got out of hand for the Cubs.
A veteran team, the seniors kept it rolling as Kyler Ng punched a two-run single to make it 2-0. Colton Webber then singled to move Ng to third and stole second. Mailes, up for the second time in the inning, later walked with the bases loaded to force in a run and Cade Cornett punched a single with the bases loaded to drive in three. The inning ended on the play, however, as Cornett was thrown out at third base. Cornett was credited with two RBIs on the play while another scored on an error before he was thrown out.
Like that, the Indians pushed across eight runs in the inning — all of which scored with two outs.
"It's been a fun year so far, but as you can see with our celebration, our kids aren't done," Indians coach Chris Yust said. "They want more. They don't want to go home."
A team built for the postseason, that showed on Tuesday as the arms of Payton Rawlins and Dalan Merriman kept the Cubs from making any noise while the bats continued to put pressure on Monett's best arms.
"The kids did a great job with the quality at bats," Yust said. "They've really bought in to having a quality at bat up and down the lineup. It's experience. These guys have been out there since their sophomore years battling. It's finally paying off for them this year."
Perhaps that experience has helped in more ways than one, as most of the players on the baseball team experienced postseason success in other sports this year. Whether it has made any differene is debatable, though one thing is certain — they're battle tested.
"There's (postseason) experience with football, basketball and now baseball," Yust said. "It really does help."
The Indians almost ended the game early after two runs in the fourth gave them a 10-0 lead, but Monett scored two in the top of the fifth to extend the game. Merriman came on in relief of Rawlins that inning and shut down the Cubs the remainder of the way.
At the plate, Ng and Cornett both had two hits and two RBIs, while Webber finished with two hits and an RBI. Marty Mailes had one hit and two RBIs and Cole Lankford added a hit.
The Indians will host sectionals against the winner of Nevada/Warrensburg on Tuesday with the game time still to be determined.

Rebirth Of New Orleans
About Rebirth Brass Band
The Rebirth Brass Band have been at the forefront of the brass band revival that they helped kick off almost 30 years ago. Formed by the Frazier brothers, Phil and Keith, along with Kermit Ruffins in 1983, The Rebirth Brass band has gone from playing on corners in the French Quarter to selling out concert halls across the world and appearing in David Simon's HBO hit "Tremé."
It's been a long road, but The Rebirth Brass Band has become one of the most beloved brass bands in New Orleans and around the world. Since their founding, they've developed a signature brand of heavy funk that has influenced not only New Orleans' brass band culture but acted as a precursor to the wildly popular "bounce" hip-hop style the city is known for.
This band is important in many ways, and their legacy has taken a turn for the historic: in 2012 they became the first brass band to win a Grammy Award (Best Regional Roots Music Album). Their latest record, "Move Your Body" was released in June 2014. No band exemplifies the essence and soul of New Orleans like Rebirth Brass Band!
What Other People Have Been Saying...
"These guys are a street party celebrating New Orleans waiting to happen in every song."
– Seattle PI
"A New Orleans institution since the 1980s, the Rebirth Brass Band updates the traditional strutting rhythms and continuous improvisation of New Orleans parades with an infusion of funk. It doesn't need microphones, amplifiers or anything but breath and rhythm to make a crowd jump."
—New York Times
"Just saw The Rebirth Brass Band, unbelievable. Hard as hell, free as a ray of light, there is not a band on earth that is better. Stunning."
– Flea, Red Hot Chili Peppers

Fallout 3: Tales of Moria
Game News - posted by Jason on Tue 4 January 2011, 02:22:46Tags: Bethesda Softworks; Fallout 3
Bethesda and the wonders of Flash animation bring you Fallout3 - the JRPG.
What would Fallout look like if it had been made in 1987 by a Japanese development studio? Our scientists have answered that question, taking over the Japanese Fallout website with an 8-bit version of the Capital Wasteland.
Just like that import copy of Final Fantasy 5 you nabbed in the 90s, this game is Japanese language-only. Fortunately, it's still amusing to gaze at the pixelated approximations of super mutants and the like. Here's a direct link right to the game; no cartridge-cleaning required.

Concealed controversy: Our 'Mother, may I' gun policyEDITORIAL
August 25. 2014 10:48PM
The state Department of Safety created a controversy this summer by changing some language on the state's concealed carry license application. The language seemed to imply that the department has wide discretion when deciding who gets concealed carry permits. The controversy raised a very important question about the state's concealed carry license: Why do we have one?
State law requires a license for the concealed carry of a firearm. A gun owner has to apply to a specific state or local official, who "shall issue a license to such applicant... if it appears that the applicant has good reason to fear injury to the applicant's person or property or has any proper purpose, and that the applicant is a suitable person to be licensed."
The law does not define "suitable person to be licensed." It has been broadly interpreted to mean anyone not barred by another law from owning a firearm. Felons, for instance, would be denied, but any legal gun owner would be granted a license.
If that is so, then why bother with the process? Just let all legal gun owners carry concealed. If that is not so (the only reason to have a licensing process is to bar some legal gun owners from carrying concealed), then we have a state law that grants government officials the easily abused power to decide whether citizens are "suitable" for concealed carry. Vermont has a simpler process, which is that there is no process. That state has no prohibition on carrying concealed. No one has to ask the government's permission. If you legally own a gun, you can legally carry concealed. It works for Vermont. It can work for the "Live free or die" state, too.

A new gluten-free baking book, Sweet Cravings: 50 Seductive Desserts for a Gluten-Free Lifestyle (Berkeley: Ten Speed Press, 2013) has been winning a wider and wider audience for its irritatingly photogenic author, Kyra Bussanich, since her recent third Cupcake Wars win on television. I am late to knowing about Kyra and her Oregon bakery, being cable TV-less on our rural street, but after receiving a complimentary copy of her new cookbook from the publisher and trying my hand at one of her fabulous recipes, I am a fan.
The book is an attractive one on the shelf, with tantalizing photos throughout, and a wealth of intriguing recipes. She has a brief, but illuminating section on the gluten-free flours and binders she prefers to use and the recipes are are conveniently labeled as being Easy, Intermediate or Advanced.
There are many baking standards for cookies, muffins, scones, tarts and breads among the pages, but after the Cupcake Wars buildup I cut to the chase to pore through the wonderfully exotic chapter of Cupcake recipes: African Yam Cupcakes with Clove Mascarpone Whipped Cream, Orange-Vanilla Dreamsicle Cupcakes, Persian Love Cakes with Cardamom Buttercream, and Champagne Cupcakes (Dan has requested these to be baked up soon).
The proof is always in the pudding, so to speak, with reviewing a cookbook, so I flipped through to see what recipe called out to me (AKA, one for which I had all the ingredients and bakery equipment on hand). Lemon Madeleines (Intermediate) won out (I actually own the baking pan needed to make these delicate shell-shaped cookies found at a local dollar store and a plastic quart bag with the end snipped off served as my pastry bag) and they were easy enough to make. They were just the right amount of sweetness and burst of bright lemon flavor and a perfect tea time treat.
I have planned to make some of her scrumptious sounding Yam Biscuits for our Thanksgiving feast next week, and there are a bunch of other paper slips bookmarking other recipes to try in the near future, so I can unabashedly affirm that this new cookbook is a real keeper.
Note: I received a review copy of this cookbook from the publisher but as always, my comments are completely my own.

Great blog! I've bought Kyra Bussanich's book and made some of the recipes - they've come out heavenly. Never ever believe they are different than "regular" baking, except more delicious and melt in your mouth. And many are pretty easy (lucky for me)
And I found a fun, short video intro she made for new book (Sweet Cravings) at www.tinyurl.com/kyrasweet

We don't get cable on our rural road either, and I had never heard of the "Cupcake Wars". Anything like the Hunger Games? Anyway, your Madeleines look absolutely perfect.

text: New year, new you! When it's time to head back to class, you're going to want to make your first-day debut with a super cute ensemble. The catch? Late-summer heat makes it nearly impossible to rock brand-new fall threads. But don't think you have to skimp on seasonal style! Just add some plaid to last season's lightweight layers for an autumn-ready look that still keeps its cool. Check out these fresh ways to sport the classic print, and don't forget to tell us how you'll be working chic squares into your wardrobe this semester.

First & 10
Roger Brown's First & 10: Decisions, decisions for Exeter Coach Ball
September 23. 2013 9:39PM
EXETER coach Bill Ball made two decisions during Saturday's 35-34 victory over Winnacunnet of Hampton that you don't see very often.
Ball elected to quick kick from his own end zone on a third-down play in the first quarter, and kept his offense on the field for a fourth-and-one play from the Exeter 28-yard line with just over two minutes to play in the first half.
The quick kick couldn't have turned out worse. Winnacunnet defensive end Devin Long blocked the kick and then fell on the ball in the end zone for a TD that helped Winnacunnet tie the game.
Ball's gamble on fourth down paid a huge dividend, however. Halfback Ryan Kelly found enough room over right tackle to pick up the first down, and on the next play fullback Jay Inzenga scored on a 71-yard run. Matt Oppici's kick made it a 14-14 contest with 2:13 remaining in the first half.
Winnacunnet quarterback Ing Hao Veasna passed for 363 yards in the game, but Winnacunnet fell short on a missed point-after kick in overtime.
"If we have it, they don't," Ball said, when asked about the decision not to punt on fourth down. "And if we have it, he's not throwing it. Have to keep the real good quarterbacks off the field. That's always our game plan. Limit their snaps."
The victory allowed Exeter (3-0) to remain No. 1 in the latest Union Leader/WGIR/WMUR Power Poll. Winnacunnet (2-1) stayed at No. 6 despite the loss.
"I really wanted to see how tough we are physically because we knew we have skilled people," Winnacunnet coach Ron Aufffant said. "We have athletes, that's obvious. We battled against one of the most physical teams — if not the most physical team — in the state. I think we answered that call."
The top six teams in the poll remained mostly unchanged from last week. Concord (3-0) and Bedford (3-0), tied for second last week, now are separated by a point, with Concord (54 points, one behind Exeter) second and Bedford (53) third. Nashua South (3-0) is fourth and Pinkerton Academy (2-1) of Derry is fifth.
The poll also includes No. 7 Trinity of Manchester (3-0), No. 8 Bishop Guertin of Nashua (2-1) and No. 9 Plymouth (3-0). There's a three-way tie between Londonderry (2-1), Portsmouth (2-1) and Spaulding of Rochester for the 10th spot.
The poll includes seven teams from Division I, and three from Division II (Trinity, Plymouth and Portsmouth).
BG, Portsmouth and Spaulding are in the top 10 for the first time this season. Keene (1-2), which was seventh in last week's poll, dropped out of the top 10 following a 14-12 loss to BG.
NO TEAM turned in a more dominating performance last weekend than Concord, which breezed to a 55-0 victory over previously unbeaten Merrimack.
Concord scored 42 points in the first half, and held a Merrimack team that put up 100 points in its first two games — the most of any team in the state — to 105 yards of net offense.
THERE ARE several attractive games on this weekend's schedule, but none with more appeal than the Saturday Division II matchup between Plymouth and Trinity at Gill Stadium (4:30 p.m.). Each team will enter the game with a 3-0 record.
Trinity and Plymouth met in the last two Division IV championship games. Trinity prevailed 30-14 in 2011, and Plymouth won last year's meeting, 7-0.

Or so we hope, since we count Urth's food and coffee among our guilty L.A. restaurant pleasures. At least they'll be DBs of perhaps a different variety than at the WeHo, BH and Santa Monica locations. And then let there be an official moratorium on the word "douchebag."
Anyway, when visiting Josh in his fab new digs at the Barker Block, we got free cappuccino Italia and lemonades. That's because Urth Caffé on Hewitt in the "Artists'" Loft District -- a factually obsolete neighborhood designation -- opens Monday. Just like most restaurant openings, it's been just a tad delayed. The brick pseudo industrial and Deco building with fancy tile work houses a full baking facility and a lot of Urth's operations, which should help hedge against this location's failure. Stylistically it's a nice departure from Urth's other spots.
Soft opening is this Monday the 27th, and the official Grand Opening shindig is Sunday, November 16th from noon to 7:00 p.m.
