BELMONT PARK NOTES - October 14, 2012
• Hessonite on track for Ticonderoga following eventful Flower Bowl
• Bush has Unbridled Command, Beautiful But Blue, and Wholelottashakin for NY Showcase Day Stakes
• Risky Rachel has Coronel aglow in lead up to Iroquois
• Lubash, Miss Valentine to carry the torch for Clement on Showcase Day
• New York Showcase Day fields taking shape
ELMONT, N.Y. – Hessonite, a troubled fifth in the Grade 1 Flower Bowl Invitational on September 29, remains on target for a title defense in the $175,000 Ticonderoga on October 20, New York Showcase Day at Belmont Park.
"We're very fortunate after the trip she had that she did come back OK," said David Donk, who trains the Freud filly for William J. Punk, Jr. and Philip DiLeo. "So, she's trained quite well in the last couple of weeks."
In the Ticonderoga, a 1 1/16-mile turf race for fillies and mares, Hessonite will be reunited with regular rider Ramon Dominguez, who opted to ride Aruna in the Flower Bowl.
"They're a good team," Donk said of Hessonite and Dominguez. "She came back after a pretty frustrating trip and it didn't take much out of her. She cooled out really easily after the race. We got lucky nothing happened to her when she checked so hard in there, but nothing happened so it looks like, knock on wood, everything's good."
Hessonite has won six stakes in her career, including three straight prior to the Flower Bowl.
Donk said he plans to also run Michael and Lynn Shanley's Freedom Rings, a distant second to Hessonite in the John Hettinger on September 9, in the Ticonderoga.
"I'm limited on the spots to run [Freedom Rings]," said Donk. "I prefer to run her at a distance of 1 1/8 miles and farther and this is only 1 1/16 miles, but she will come back [in the Ticonderoga]."

Trainer Tom Bush will be well-represented on New York Showcase Day with a trio of stakes runners in addition to some planned undercard starters.
Leading Bush's stakes contingent is Lakland Farm's Grade 3 Saranac winner Unbridled Command, who breezed five furlongs in 1:02.05 on Saturday and who will be entered in the 1 1/16-mile Mohawk Stakes on the turf, worth $175,000.
Unbridled Command, winner of his last three starts, was entered in the Grade 1 Jamaica Handicap on October 6 at Belmont Park, but Bush opted to scratch in favor of a start on Showcase Day. The 3-year-old Master Command colt turned in a 1:02.05 five-furlong turf breeze on Sunday.
"We thought we'd have to lay much closer in [the Jamaica] than what I think his best race is," Bush said. "When he ran in the Saranac, there was a lot of pace and he was able to get back and make that run. I think that's his best race, and it wasn't going to be that kind of race in the Jamaica. [The Mohawk] will be tough, too. Those are two nice older horses [Lubash and Compliance Officer], for sure. I don't know if we can beat those older horses or not, but it is October. You're supposed to be able to compete against them if you're good enough, so we're going to find out."
Chester and Mary Broman's Beautiful But Blue also will square off against older fillies and mares in Saturday's $150,000 Iroquois Stakes. The daughter of El Corredor returns to New York-bred company after a pair of third-place efforts in open stakes – the Charles Town Oaks on September 22 and the Grade 1 Test on August 25 at Saratoga Race Course. Prior to those starts she had beaten elder state-breds in the Spa's Fleet Indian stakes and counts two of her five wins at the seven-furlong distance of the Iroquois.
"It's the same with Beautiful But Blue," Bush said. "You've got to run against the older ones sometime. Going long, she's probably got a little bit more speed, but going short, she's a good stalker. That's probably the kind of trip we'll have again in this race. I hope so."
On Sunday, Beautiful But Blue posted a 1:03.04 five-furlong breeze.
Bush added that Parting Glass Racing's Wholelottashakin will go in the Ticonderoga on the turf. Exiting a fourth-place effort in the Given overnight stakes on September 20 at Belmont Park, she was clocked in 1:01.72 for five furlongs over the turf on Sunday.

Trainer Juan "Manny" Coronel issued an upbeat bulletin Sunday morning as his filly, Risky Rachel, aims for her second straight win in the $150,000 Iroquois, a seven-furlong race for New York-bred fillies and mares on New York Showcase Day.
"She's coming out into this race perfect," said Coronel, who competed as a jockey in his native Argentina before coming to the United States. "We're very excited. No excuses. Everything is really, really good."
Risky Rachel won last year's Iroquois under the care of trainer H. James Bond, Coronel's former boss. Owner Sanford Bacon transferred Risky Rachel to Coronel when the Argentine set out on his own earlier this year, and the 5-year-old mare gave Coronel his first win as a trainer when she won the Broadway in March at Aqueduct Racetrack.
After the Broadway, Risky Rachel made three starts at Belmont, winning the Putthepowdertoit overnight stakes, finishing last of seven when trying turf for the first time in the Mount Vernon, and reporting home second in the Chaldea overnight stakes. She enters the Iroquois off a second to Beautiful But Blue in the Fleet Indian and a 3 ½-length triumph in the Union Avenue in August at Saratoga last time out.
"We gave her a little break after her race in Saratoga," said Coronel. "Perfect. She had three very tough races, one at Belmont and at Saratoga. I couldn't be more happy pointing for [the Iroquois]. She's coming in a little fresh, but she loves to be fresh. She needs a little space [between races], and everything is really, really good. Seven furlongs, I don't mind. She's going to give a huge race."
Risky Rachel's tactical speed makes her dangerous in the Iroquois, Coronel said.
"I know a couple other horses have a lot of speed, so we can sit off a little bit," said Coronel. "I'm not scared of seven furlongs because I know she's [won at the distance] here. I think she's going to run a huge race. She can run five furlongs, she can run six, she can run seven, she can run a mile. She's not difficult to ride."
Coronel, who had only one other horse besides Risky Rachel when he started his training career, has seen his barn expand to 10 head and expects to receive four more horses at the end of the month. From 13 starters, he has posted a record of 5-4-1.
"I couldn't be happier right now. Everything is perfect," said Coronel. "I just started six months ago, and I'm very excited for the owners. They have 100 percent supported me. The filly, Risky Rachel, opened doors, and Mr. Sanford [Bacon] gave me the opportunity. Dr. Bortolazzo, the owner of the rest of the horses, opened doors and has nice horses, too, and people see that."

Trainer Christophe Clement will have two representatives on New York Showcase Day with Miss Valentine heading to the $150,000 Iroquois for filly and mare sprinters and Lubash looking for his third straight stakes victory of the year in the $175,000 Mohawk at 1 1/16 miles on the turf.
Second in the Kingston on May 27 in his debut for Clement, Lubash next finished fourth, beaten 1 ¾ lengths in the Grade 3 Red Bank on July 4 at Monmouth Park. The 5-year-old Freud gelding then ticked off a pair of stakes wins, rallying from seventh in the West Point at Saratoga and coming from just off the pace to snare the Ashley T. Cole at Belmont.
"Lubash has been a pleasant surprise," said Clement of the Aliyu Ben J Stable color-bearer. "He's getting older, and sometimes they get better when they get older. He's been very consistent – he races on soft, he races on firm, and that's nice, because this time of year anything can happen."
Miss Valentine, a 4-year-old Afleet Alex filly, will be making her first start since finishing third to fellow Iroquois entrants Beautiful But Blue and Risky Rachel in the Fleet Indian on August 1 at Saratoga.
"We didn't have anything to run her in during September, so she will train up to New York Showcase Day," said Clement of Miss Valentine, who is owned by Waterville Lake Stables. "I thought in the past she wanted to go further, but in fact she's more like a come-from-behind, seven-furlong, miler. You have more pace going seven furlongs or a mile, and she needs a lot of pace to run at."
* * *
New York-bred juveniles get two chances to shine on New York Showcase Day in the $125,000 Bertram F. Bongard and the $125,000 Joseph A. Gimma for fillies, both at seven furlongs.
Likely for the Bongard, according to NYRA stakes coordinator Andrew Byrnes, are In Harm's Way, third in the Grade 2 Saratoga Special and second in the New York Breeders' Futurity at Finger Lakes last time out; Saint Arthur and Tequila Hero, the third-and fourth-place finishers in the Breeders' Futurity; and last-out maiden winners Goodtolook, James Jingle, Read the Proposal and Western Grit, along with Lucci the Lion, Meet the Mets, Mr. Rodriguez, The Cauliflower Kid and Slot Play.
Gee Linz, a 2 ½-length starter allowance winner in open company last time out, and Matchmadeinheaven, who is 2-for-2 in stakes at Finger Lakes, are among the probables for the Gimma. Also expected to line up are Agilion, 1-1-1 in three starts; recent maiden winners Carameaway and True Fortune; Heidi's Holiday, third in the allowance to Gee Linz last time out, and Zeke's Surprise, most recently fourth in an allowance against colts. E Schifty and Polan are questionable.
Filly and mare sprinters face off in the seven-furlong, $150,000 Iroquois, which is expected to draw defending champion Risky Rachel; graded stakes winner Agave Kiss, who returns to restricted company after finishing second in the Valor Lady overnight stakes; multiple stakes winner Beautiful But Blue, most recently third in the Charles Town Oaks; Guyana Princess, a winner facing claimers last time out; Lady On the Run, making her first start since finishing sixth in the Fleet Indian at Saratoga Race Course, and Miss Valentine, third in the Fleet Indian.
Under consideration for the six-furlong, $150,000 Hudson are the streaking Saginaw, winner of eight of his last nine starts; Neatie the Cat, putting his 2-for-2 record on the line in his stakes debut; Ground Force, winner of an optional claimer last time out; Shrewd One, who is 3-3-0 in six 2012 starts, and Sportswriter, most recently sixth in the Groovy overnight stakes.
Compliance Officer will be back to defend his title in the $175,000 Mohawk at 1 1/16 miles on the turf, which is also expected to attract Grade 3 Saranac winner Unbridled Command; New York Derby winner Fox Rules; Grade 3 Red Bank winner Get Serious, most recently third in the Grade 3 Cliff Hanger; Ashley T. Cole and West Point winner Lubash; Street Game, third in the Ashley T. Cole last time out; Strong Impact, making his stakes debut as the anticipated pacesetter for stablemate Compliance Officer; Majestic Raffy, and Minnie Punt. Hangover Kid is questionable.
Longtime rivals Hessonite and Gitchee Goomie, first and second, respectively, in last year's Ticonderoga, head the field for this year's edition of the 1 1/16-mile turf race. Lining up against the top two in the $175,000 race likely will be Color Blind, Considerate, Dreaming of Cara, Freedom Rings, Inimitable Romanee, Ladywell Court, Mystic City, Prize Doll, Wholelottashakin and Kibosh.
The centerpiece of the afternoon is the $250,000 Empire Classic, with Evan Shipman winner Lunar Victory expected to attract considerable support along with 3-year-old Saratoga Snacks, who carries a four-race win streak into his stakes debut. Likely to oppose them in the 1 1/8-mile race are Johannesburg Smile, third in last year's Classic, and Sailmate, most recently fourth in the Promenade All overnight stakes. Saginaw, Fiddlers Afleet and Brigand also are under consideration.

Michigan Wolverines' Trey Burke Is Without Question the National POYMarch 30, 2013
In a game where his Michigan Wolverines trailed by 14 points, and with the keys in the ignition of the bus, Trey Burke hit the shot of the NCAA tournament so far.
Burke did what Mario Chalmers did to Memphis five years ago. The collapse was just as epic. The shot, if Michigan wins this thing, will be just as famous.
Michigan would go on to win in overtime, 87-85, because the team that hits that shot always goes on to win in overtime.
Burke scored eight of Michigan's 10 points in the final 1:16 of regulation, and he would add five more in the first 1:37 of overtime. This became his night. In some ways, he made it that way. In others, Elijah Johnson made it that way.
The Kansas senior picked the wrong time to lose his head. He hit Mitch McGary with a cheap shot in the opening minutes and spent the rest of the game trying to make up for his mistake. Johnson's two straight turnovers 20 seconds apart—a poorly timed drive, and then a 10-second violation—cut KU's lead from 10 to six with 1:55 left.
Then, Burke took over.
Burke capped off the comeback with the three so good it should be written about again and again and again.
Kansas, up three after Johnson missed the front end of a one-and-one free throw, decided not to foul, and Bill Self may regret that. But no player in college basketball is supposed to be able to hit a step-back jumper from 30 feet.
No player, other than Trey Burke.
Burke opened overtime with the ultimate stomach punch, dribbling right into another three after Kansas had taken back the lead. He scored 13 points in the span of 2:53.
He ended the Player of the Year debate in that time. The award is his.
Johnson, meanwhile, kept trying to make up for his miscues by firing off forced jumpers. To his credit, his three with 47 seconds left gave Kansas hope.
The game would end with Johnson driving to the basket with a chance to tie it and, for some inconceivable reason, throwing a crazy throw-back pass to Naadir Tharpe.
This was not Johnson's night, but for nearly 37 minutes, it was KU's.
Jeff Withey dominated the defensive end like he's done the last two NCAA tournaments. KU senior guard Travis Releford slowed Tim Hardaway Jr. (10 points on 4-of-11 shooting) and continued to be KU's most consistent offensive player, scoring 16 points. Ben McLemore rediscovered his stroke and scored 20 points, even banking in a three at one point.
The Michigan bus was just about ready to head to the airport, Burke to the NBA and the talk in Ann Arbor shifting to next year with Mitch McGary (25 points on 12-of-17 shooting) as reason to be excited.
Only Burke wasn't having it.
Burke would end up with 23 points, 10 assists and the shot of a lifetime.

BROCTON - Frustration and disappointment were clearly discernible on Thursday during the first Brocton Board of Education meeting since the failed statutory merger vote between Brocton and Westfield schools.

The Brocton Board of Education was clearly frustrated and disappointed with the results of the statutory merger vote with Westfield during its meeting on Thursday.
"Tonight's meeting is about planning to plan (for the future), not necessarily walking away with anything concrete," Superintendent John Hertlein said. "The first part of our concern now is financial. What's our budget look like and what will our budget look like for the next five years? We also need to have an audit of our curriculum. What do we offer? What is good? What is okay? What do we need and what do we want from our principals and our teachers? And I think third is we need to reach out to the community to see what they really want Brocton to look like."
Hertlein suggested the board hold a retreat to figure out the next steps for the district, which the board agreed would be a good idea.
"A retreat would be essential, especially at this time," board member Thomas DeJoe said. "We need direction as to where the board is heading because, right now, we're basically starting at square one again and we need to get moving. We have a predominantly young, new board and one of the best aspects of a retreat is the bonding and getting to know each other and coming out of there as a unified group."
While the board did attempt to look toward the future, a discussion on what happened on Wednesday was also deemed essential.
"I'd like to thank everyone for all their hard work. We took it tough last night, but Brocton will move on and we've got to worry about Brocton," Board President Douglas Walter said. "We can't worry about anyone else right now.
We can't worry about Westfield. They chose and I respect their decision, but I will only thank those voters who said yes. This was for the kids and the communities and I was extremely disappointed in (people's) decision in voting no. This was a democratic process and you have to respect that and you've got to move on. You can't dwell on it. As long as the decision was based on good facts, then I'll respect it."
"I'm sure we'll have comments about what happened five years ago (with the failed merger vote with Fredonia)," Walter added. "All I can say is that was five years ago. That's the past. Right now, we've got to worry about Brocton. Fredonia, Westfield, that's in the past, and as far as I'm concerned, I'll do anything to help this school district."
Brocton overwhelmingly supported merging with Westfield after the voting results were announced on Wednesday, but Westfield rejected the merger by about 200 votes. The large turnout was a point of praise for the Brocton School Board, especially for the number of people in Brocton who supported a merger (643 to 74).
"We're all just still kind of numb from what took place last night," Hertlein said. "Last night was extremely disappointing and it disappoints all of us. We worked a year and a half on what we thought was a very good plan for both communities, for kids and taxpayers alike. But, in so doing, we need to move forward and create new dreams and new visions for our community."
Brocton resident John Ames asked if the board would ever revisit a possible merger with Fredonia.
"I hope that there would be an open mind toward Fredonia, which voted two to one for the merger five years ago and has indicated, since that time, a willingness to reopen those talks," he said. "The reality is, Fredonia is an option that still exists."
"Everything is always on the table," Hertlein replied. "I think the board will have open minds on anything that we need to do."
"This board is open to anything," Walter said. "As far as I'm concerned, this is the best high school in the county."
The OBSERVER asked Hertlein whether the merger vote with Westfield will be revisited in the future.
"We have a year and a day to revisit and revote, if the commissioner of education approves another vote with the same feasibility study as before, but I think we need to look at that option without the effects we are going through right now," Hertlein said. "It will take some time to consider that. Maybe in a month or two."

Amazon Kindle DX
What a difference extra inches make
Posted in Personal Tech, 2nd February 2010 12:02 GMT
Review It took Amazon's Kindle 2 a good while to escape from Uncle Sam's backyard but less than three months more for the international version of the Kindle DX to arrive. Before we even laid hands on the DX we knew it was both bigger and more expensive, but is it any better?
The most obvious difference between the DX and Amazon's lesser Kindles is the larger screen. Like the standard Kindle, the DX uses an E Ink display, but it's a 9.7in unit with a resolution of 1200 x 824 rather than the basic Kindle's 6in, 600 x 800 panel.
Amazon's Kindle DX: the size e-book readers should be?
Though larger, the DX's screen actually has a lower pixels per inch figure - 150 vs 167 - but the difference is indiscernible to the eye. In every way, the DX's larger screen makes for a much better reading experience than that provided by any other e-book reader we have tested.
Because the DX has followed so hard on the heels of the Kindle 2, Register Hardware found itself with both devices in its clammy grip at the same time, allowing for a direct comparison. While the screens look the same in terms of contrast and shade, there's no doubt that the DX changes pages with a far less obvious grey-to-black-and-back-again flash.
To appreciate just how much more acreage those extra 3.7 inches actually create, you have to put the DX side by side with a 6in e-book reader. It then becomes obvious that the DX's screen has more than two-and-a-half times the surface area. The main advantage of the increased space is that you can crank up the text size but still experience the same structured page layout that you see when reading a traditional book.
The bigger screen makes a world of difference
Another advantage of the larger screen page became clear when we downloaded the copy of The Lord of the Rings that we purchased as part of our test of the 6in Kindle: the maps were now legible, even the fiddly one giving details of the topography of Gondor.
A further benefit: PDF files are much easier to read. You still can't alter the text size of PDF files, which rather makes a mockery of Amazon's claim that the Kindle has truly native PDF support, but at least the extra screen size means the standard PDF page view is readable which it certainly wasn't on the smaller Kindle.
Skinny and not heavy
If you do want to up the text size of your PDF files, you can now just flip the DX onto its side and let the accelerometer change the page view from portrait to landscape fit-to-width which near enough doubles the text size. Incidentally, the accelerometer will flip the page layout through 360° if you feel the need to hold the DX upside down.
Physically, the DX looks like a Kindle that has been on a heavy course of steroids. At 264 x 183 x 9.6mm it's a fair bit bigger than the Kindle 2, but Amazon has maximised the percentage of the front taken up by the screen by the simple expediency of reducing the size of the Qwerty keyboard. Despite the keys now being smaller, rather oddly shaped and lacking a dedicated row of numeric buttons, we didn't find the new design any the less easy to use.
Nor did we miss the Kindle 2's left-hand side page-turn controls, which are absent from the DX. Otherwise, the layout of the DX is identical to that of the Kindle 2, so you get a micro USB port at the bottom; a 3.5mm audio socket and on/off switch at the top; a pair of rather better sounding speakers than those fitted to the Kindle 2 around the back; and a row of controls along the right-hand edge of the unit to navigate the various system menus, turn pages and adjust the volume.
The screen dominates the DX's face
Amazon has also stuck with the basic cosmetic style of previous Kindles so you can have any colour you want as long as it's white. Thankfully, the increased size of the DX hasn't resulted in any chassis flex and the new device is every bit as solidly bonded together as its smaller sibling.
At 546g - a hefty 250g more weighty than the 6in model, but still less than the 730g 3G Apple iPad - the DX is certainly one of the heavier e-book readers about. But since it's also lighter than the average hardback book, that really makes no odds.
Can also be used as a tea-tray?
The DX comes with 4GB of storage - or 3.3GB after the operating system has taken its bite - which is twice what the Kindle 2 provides and goes some way towards ameliorating the lack of memory card expansion.
Of course, as with the Kindle 2, you can store purchased books on Amazon's servers and re-download them when needed. With a MobiPocket file of Dumas' The Three Musketeers taking up less than 800KB, and the AZW file of The Lord of the Rings occupying just over 3.3MB, that 3.3GB is sufficient to house a rather big library of some very long books.
Many technical strengths and weaknesses are carried over from the Kindle 2. So the text-to-speech facility is laughably bad, the music player is so basic we can hardly bring ourselves to call it a music player, the web browser doesn't work outside of the good 'ole US of A, and there is no support for the ePub e-book format, while audio file support of limited to MP3 and Audible. Common text files can be read on the DX but doing so involves e-mailing them to Amazon for automatic transcoding, which is a bit of a palaver.
Just as shiny as an iPad?
On the up side, the built-in HSDPA wireless module lets you buy books from Amazon without recourse to a PC, and all the basic e-book reader functions are well covered, including the ability to place multiple bookmarks in multiple books, and make and attach notes to book pages.
According to Amazon, the DX will last as long on a full charge as the Kindle 2 does: a week with the wireless left radio on, two weeks with it off. That seems about right - we noticed no discernible differences in battery life between the two devices.
Before you start adding shipping costs, the DX will set you back $489 - £308 at the current exchange rate - or, put it another way, $230 (£145) more than the standard Kindle. That is a fair old chunk of change for an e-book reader, even one with a huge screen.
Nice... but pricey
It also means the DX is pretty much the same price as the soon to arrive entry-level iPad. While the the iPad is not a dedicated e-book reader - making direct comparisons pointless - both devices are large screened handheld electronic gadgets competing for a finite discretionary consumer spend.
Another potential fly in the DX's ointments is Sony's hopefully-coming-to-Blighty-soon $399 (£252) Reader Daily Edition, which has a 7.1in, 600 x 1024 screen, 3G wireless communication, and PDF file support complete with variable text sizes and reflow.
Spend time with the 9.7in Kindle DX and your won't ever want to go back to a 6in e-book reader but blimey you've to pay a hefty price to be paid for such luxury. If money is no object, you won't regret the outlay, but you may want to consider waiting to see if the arrival of Apple's iPad causes Amazon to re-think its pricing strategy. ®

How to Evaluate Home Security Systems
- Determine if you can install a hard-wired home security system, a hybrid system or a purely wireless one. The advantage of a hard-wired system is that a burglar cannot tamper with the system to disable the siren or phone line. However, the installation company must be able to run wires through your walls and ceilings as well as access an area of your home to hide the siren and control panel, which is more difficult with the way newer homes are constructed
- A wireless receiver (keypad) may be an option, creating a "hybrid" security system. This system is more secure than a purely wireless system since the siren and phone lines are not directly connected to the keypad. An "all-in-one" wireless system is the least secure because all the alarm components are in one place, making it more accessible to burglars
- Consider the level of protection that you require. Some systems will come with all the bells and whistles, from infrared beams to medical and fire monitoring. More simple systems only monitor windows and doors opening. Your decision here will greatly impact both the home security system and the level of monitoring you'll need
- Think about your pets. If you have small pets, motion-detecting security systems may function without picking up the pets, but larger pets, specifically medium- to large-size dogs, may set off the alarm. Homeowners with these animals should consider foregoing the motion detector to eliminate false alarms
- Check with friends, neighbors and family members in your local area to determine which alarm monitoring companies they find reliable. If you will be paying for your home security system to be monitored, you want to ensure that you're getting the level of service you desire. Some factors to inquire about are response time and quality of installation
- Discuss contract lengths with any monitoring company you consider for your home security system. Many require lengthy contracts in exchange for a free system. Carefully weigh your options here and don't get caught up in all the "freebies" offered by different companies. Ask company representatives any other questions you may have as well
- Ask your home insurance company if they give discounts to customers who use any specific systems or companies. If you're torn and can't make a decision, this information may help you decide
How to Buy a Home Alarm System:
Each year more than 2 million American homes are burglarized, according to the National Burglar and Fire Alarm Association (alarm.org). Most of them have no alarm system. Electronic security devices provide affordable peace of mind, and recognizes and reacts instantly to unauthorized entry
- Survey your home and determine how many windows and doors you want integrated into the system
- Contact your insurance agent, a security system adviser, the NBFAA or your police department's crime prevention department for names of security system companies. Ask each company for an inspection, a recommendation and a quote in writing
- Decide whether you want to contract with a 24-hour central monitoring station for a monthly fee. If your system detects a break-in, it alerts security professionals to dispatch local police. Less expensive dialer accessories can link sensors to your phone lines and call preselected numbers if security is breached
- Consider your family's lifestyle. Do people or pets sometimes roam the house at night? Select appropriate sensors and locations
- Choose a system with a control panel that can monitor all the zones in your home. Each window or door integrated into the system is considered a zone. A basic system (about $400 without monitoring) can control eight zones, but many can be expanded to watch up to 32
- Determine locations for the control panel and keypads. The control panel commands the system and the keypads allow you to program the system and turn it or its components on and off. A typical setup puts one keypad near the front door and another keypad--and perhaps a panic button--close to the bedrooms
- Look for systems that connect to lighting controls, smoke and carbon monoxide sensors, and flood detectors. Also make sure system switches won't freeze in cold climates. (See How to Buy a Home Automation System.)
- Choose a user-friendly code that everyone in the family can remember in an emergency. Try the keypad to assure that it's easy to use
- Realize that it's difficult to retrofit a hardwired security system. With a wired system, you'll have to drill holes in walls so wires can be routed. If you want to avoid this expense and inconvenience, choose a wireless system

Dana White on EliteXC: "That's Fucking Illegal"; Lappen Changes His Story Again
Dana White calls for EliteXC investigation – Watch more free videos
Dana White is downright pissed off. He's so mad at EliteXC in this video, one camera angle is insufficient for capturing his rage. He lays into EliteXC for the Seth Petruzelli "knockout bonus" scandal and suggests that Jeremy Lappen and the Shaws should look into the kickboxing business if they want to keep fights off the ground so badly. I couldn't agree more.
For his part, EliteXC Head of Operations Jeremy Lappen changes his story yet again in a talk with AOL Fanhouse. First, Lappen told Si.com that Petruzelli was offered a knockout bonus, but the company doesn't offer submission bonuses. Then he told ESPN.com that Petruzelli was offered a KO bonus, a submission bonus, and a fight of the night bonus. Now he says both stories misquoted him:
"They're both wrong," Lappen said. "We have given submission bonuses in the past but they're not as common as knockout bonuses. If the question is, 'Have we ever given submission bonuses?' The answer is yes. But we give knockout bonuses more often. We gave Seth a knockout bonus before the fight started. That was part of the deal."
Hold up, you gave him a knockout bonus before the fight started? As in, before he had knocked anyone out? Goddammit Lappen, I sure as hell hope you were "misquoted" yet again. At the very least I hope it's just poor phrasing on your part and what you meant to say was you told of him of a potential knockout bonus before the fight. But either way, it's still bullshit. You offered him an incentive to win a fight in a very specific manner, not an incentive to simply finish the fight.
Not to mention, this is the third time you've changed your story. Nobody gets misquoted this often. Not unless they keep changing their story so often that they can't keep all the versions straight in their own mind.Read More DIGG THIS

Activist Builds Toilet House
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Design, Household, Misc. Tech,
South Korean Sim Jae-Duck is the head of the World Toilet Association. In order to raise funds for over 2.6 billion worlwide who have no bathroom facilities, he is building a 1.6 million dollar house about 24 miles south of Seoul. Named Haewoojae, the 4,508 square foot cement and glass building contains two bedrooms, two guest rooms, and three deluxe toilets, of course. The house's grand opening will be November 11, and if you would like to book it for a day, it will cost you $50,000. That will buy a lot of toilets, and sufficient TP to go with it.

In "From Up Here," as Sarah seeks peace in the aftermath, the detectives pick up a new unnerving case. Lyric is tempted by her old life. Danette says goodbye.
In "The Road to Hamelin," Sarah places her life on the line after someone dear to her suddenly goes missing. Meanwhile, Holder's past is used against him.
Check out a sneak peek below:
THE KILLING ties together three distinct stories around a single murder including the detectives assigned to the case, the victim's grieving family, and the suspects. Set in Seattle, the story also explores local politics as it follows politicians connected to the case. As the series unfolds, it becomes clear that there are no accidents; everyone has a secret, and while the characters think they've moved on, their past isn't done with them.

DURHAM, N.C. -- The Atlantic Coast Conference named sophomore Megan Clark the ACC Female Performer of the Week Tuesday afternoon, marking the second consecutive week the Fort Benning, Ga., native received the honor. Clark earned the accolade following a school record clearance of 14-3.50 (4.36) at the Virginia Tech Elite Meet in Blacksburg, Va. The performance on Saturday currently ranks Clark second nationally in the event.
Clark's impressive 2014 season continued Saturday afternoon in Virginia, as the pole vaulter improved on her previous school record height of 14-0.00 (4.27) by clearing 14-3.50 (4.36) on her third attempt. Clark, who opened the competition at 12-2.00 (3.71), made adjustments throughout the day after clearing 12-8.00 (3.86), 13-1.75 (4.01) and 13-5.75 (4.11) on second attempts and 13-9.75 (4.21) and 14-1.75 (4.31) on third attempts.
After opening the 2014 season at the Virginia Tech Invitational with a clearance of 13-3.50 (4.05), Clark posted a height of 12-11.50 (3.95) at the Dick Taylor Challenge Jan. 24, the only contest this season that Clark did not surpass the 13-foot barrier. Clark returned to competition one day later with a clearance of 13-9.25 (4.20) before setting a school record with a 14-0.00 (4.27) effort at the Hilton Garden Innvitational Feb. 1. Clark's 14-3.50 (4.36) marks the second meet this season where she broke the 14-foot barrier.
The Blue Devils return to competition Friday, Feb. 14, competing at the Iowa State Classic in Ames, Iowa, and Saturday, Feb. 15, traveling to the Millrose Games in New York, N.Y.

Western SARE Names New Director
Thursday, Mar. 13, 2014
Teryl Roper always loved agriculture. Growing up in Utah County, it surrounded him and eventually led him to his botany and horticulture degrees. Now, Roper plans to transition his experience and love of agriculture into his newly announced position as director of the Western Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education program.
Western SARE, which was founded in 1988, is a research and education grant program focused on the promotion of sustainable farming and ranching practices in the West. Based in Logan, Utah, at Utah State University, but serving 11 western states and four territories, Western SARE engages farmers and ranchers in the research process, a unique and critical component to Western SARE success, according to Roper.
"It increases the knowledge base on one side and helps educate on the other," Roper said. "It's the best of both worlds."
Now, Roper is looking forward to leading the organization and using his experience as a former Extension specialist and his most recent experience as department head for the Department of Plants, Soils and Climate at USU to fulfill the mission of Western SARE.
"I'm most looking forward to working with the staff, growers and other agriculture leaders," Roper said.
While he is looking forward to his new position, Roper acknowledges that the success of the organization he will soon lead is due in large part to the direction of its retiring leader, V. Philip Rasmussen.
"His vision and leadership for Western SARE for the past 20 years has made us successful," Roper said. "I have very big shoes to fill."
Roper assumes his new duties in July 2014.
About Western SARE
SARE is a program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture that functions through competitive grants conducted cooperatively by farmers, ranchers, researchers and agricultural professionals to advance farm and ranch systems that are profitable, environmentally sound and good for communities.

Behind the leadership of all-KCAC libero Amelia Noll, the Lady Spires should once again be a strong defensive team in 2012.
Team: Saint Mary volleyball
Last year's record: 8-22
Coach: Sarah Johnson
Coach's record: 0-0, first year
Key returnees:
Amelia Noll, senior libero
Shelby Titus, senior defensive specialist
Amber Mahoney, senior middle blocker
Newcomers to watch:
Aubrey Harris, junior outside hitter
Jordyne Seichepine, junior outside hitter
Haley Eastburn, freshman outside hitter
Danielle Dowdy, freshman setter
Team Outlook: STRENGTHS — Behind the leadership of all-KCAC libero Amelia Noll, the Lady Spires should once again be a strong defensive team in 2012. As far as offensively, the team contains some much-needed power from its outside hitter positions.
WEAKNESSES — Due to a lack of numbers, the squad will combat endurance and injury issues throughout the season. "We are going to focus on staying healthy and mentally strong," Johnson said.
Big games: Home vs. Kansas Wesleyan, Sept. 25; Home vs. Friends, Oct. 24; Home vs. Tabor, Nov. 2
Coach says: "I'm looking forward to Sept. 5 when we get to put all that we have been working for into action. This is a very talented group of girls and we are focusing on being our best every day. If we can bring that mentality to the court day in and day out, we're going to be successful."

Type O Roundup ~ #6 !August 11th, 2000 , by admin
Heidi, I enjoy reading your column and appreciate getting answers to some of my questions by reading your answers to other's questions. I am a 43 yr old female, O+ and have been on the diet and exercising for 2 months. It has been a BIG change for me because I previously had a grain(mostly wheat and corn) based diet and a lot of dairy as well. I have been quite strict about avoids, and tried to eat as many beneficials as possible. However, because of financial reasons, I have not been able to buy organic vegetables & fruits and free range beef and fresh fish. I'm doing good to afford frozen fish and regular produce from the grocery store. Thankfully, greens are inexpensive
I have lost about 10 lbs, which makes me very happy, but have a few concerns. I have asthma and allergies and was hoping that I could eventually quit taking the 3 prescriptions I take daily. I tried cutting back a little on my medications after 6 weeks on the diet, and my symptoms got worse, so I went back to normal doses. That was a little discouraging to me, after reading results others have had.
Another question I have is about supplements. I'm not familiar with herbs and haven't taken any, I'm especially worried about calcium since I've stopped drinking milk. I've read about and would love to get the calcium supplement for o's sold on your site, but can't afford to at this time. I guess what I'm wondering is: since I can't get the perfect foods and afford the supplements, how beneficial is it for me to continue on the diet at this time? Am I doing more damage than good by eating more produce (with pesticides) & more beef (with antibiotics & hormones)? Thanks for your help and comments. M.N.
Hi, M.N.! You're doing a wonderful job! New diet, new exercise plan, and you're working to learn more ~ what a great attitude, dear! Your approach will accomplish your goals far more quickly than if you were rich as Croesus but uncommitted to this plan. You absolutely do not have to take supplements -- For calcium, use Peter's Calcium from Almonds list ~ make broth from the bones of roasted chicken, turkey, beef, etc. ~ and pick up a bottle of Gerolsteiner mineral water (or whatever brand you can find locally) once or twice per week.
You are certainly not doing more damage than good by eating more of the foods that are good for you ~ just think, the foods you used to eat are just as heavy with pesticides as the greens, veg, and meat you are eating now. I have a suggestion for getting clean meat at a lower cost than your local retail source: www.eatwild.com has a huge listing of various producers who sell direct and will ship to you. Take a look at it and see if it would meet your needs. There might be someone listed who's near where you are -- in which case, you could drive out and pick up your supply (no shipping cost) and freeze it at home. Investigate greenmarkets or farmer's markets in your area, too: you get a lower price and better food, and the farmer gets all the money ~ no middleman.
Don't be too rushed to get off the meds (I say that, but I totally understand your desire to be rid of them!) ~ as your body heals, the time will come when you don't need the meds. Just let it happen at its own pace, and it WILL happen.
thanks for writing, M.N., and I know you're succeeding right now! :-D
I'm an "O-." I have been using RevivalSoy products to alleviate menopausal symptoms. Their products deliver the equivalent of 6 cups of soymilk (providing 16 grams of soy protein and 160 milligrams of soy isoflavones. Their new low carb shakes and bars contain "sugar alcohols" as the primary sweeteners. Their literature states that sugar alcohols are categorized as sugar replacers because they replace sugar sweeteners. Sugar alcohols taste very similar to regular sugar, but they are not absorbed very well by the intestines, thus they add very few calories or carbohydrates to products. As an added benefit, they do not produce substantial rises in blood glucose levels (i.e. they are low glycemic index sweeteners). Can I, as an O, safely use these products? Thanks, Claudia
OK: Here is my message to people who are sending questions to my column in order to promote RevivalSoy:
INGREDIENTS of one of their drinks:
Revival® Doctor-formulated Soy Protein Isolate, Fructose, Sucrose, Cocoa, Calcium Phosphate, Maltodextrin, Soy Lecithin, Salt, Potassium Chloride, Artificial Flavor, Carrageenan, Carboxymethylcellulose and Xanthan Gum.
Then they have the nerve to say:
EXCHANGE: 2 very lean meats + 2 1/4 starches
If anyone here thinks soy isolate and a whacking load of corn-based sweeteners and gums and carrageenan and chemicals is somehow OK for ANYONE, let alone type Os (!!), let ALONE as an "exchange" for two meats and two "starches," then all I can say is, I wish you well ~ but these products are not BTD-friendly. I could say lots more, but I am driving on. *phew.* Thanks for listening! :-D
The diet recommends the use of "seltzer water". Is this the same as club soda or tonic water? If not, is seltzer water commonly sold in grocery stores? Brenda
Hello, Brenda ~ Seltzer commonly refers to salt-free club soda. Seltzer, club soda, doesn't really matter for purposes of the diet; both are found everywhere, so they're easy to find. Tonic water is seltzer with quinine and a bit of sweetener -- but I have not found a single brand of tonic water without corn-based sweetener, so watch those labels (and write in to tell me if you find something WITHOUT that corny stuff! :-)). And here I'll put in a plug for the King Of Fizzy: high-solids mineral water! Study 'em up and pick a favorite at www.mineralwaters.org ! :-)
Hi Heidi I have just started the diet a few weeks ago and LR4YT has become my bible! In such a short time I no longer suffer from bloating, gas or constipation. I also have no cravings at all for sweets. However, I do still suffer from fatigue. I still need almost 10 hours sleep to recharge my batteries fully and if I don't get this then feel really tired in the early to late afternoon. What can I do to feel more energised in the afternoons? I am a type o (secretor status unknown). I already take a vit B supplement but it doesn't really help. I have completely eliminated wheat, potatoes, corn and beans from my diet. I still have one cup of coffee a day (usually during the afternoon which helps to wake me up somewhat!). Any ideas? Thanks for your great work. Shalinee from down under...
Hummm, hmmm... This could be due to a number of things, but I'll list 'em all ~ just pick and choose among them depending on your circumstances.
Try using green tea instead of coffee in the afternoon ~ it's a great mental brightener, and beneficial for most folks (without the shakiness coffee can produce, along with its other deleterious effects).
Do you get plenty of calcium? If you're unsure, see the calcium part of my reply to M.N., above. A calcium deficiency can certainly produce lagging energy.
There are rhythms of energy through the day, and we all experience "up" and "down" parts of the cycles at various times. Mid-to-late afternoon is a natural time for a nap ~ unfortunately, most work schedules don't accommodate natural energy slumps.
It's possible you need *less* sleep than you're getting, as more than six or seven hours at a stretch is actually harder on the body than two sleep periods of two to five hours separated by an hour or two awake. So, let's say you sleep from ten to two, get up for an hour, then sleep again from three to five (or six). Or, eleven to five with a two-hour nap in the early evening. Play with this and see if it helps you.
It's quite common to experience sleep changes in your early phase of the diet. They usually resolve themselves within a month or two, so it may simply be a matter of time. Hang in there, and see how you're doing in a while - let me know, too, OK? :-D
Dear 'on the diet' I am blood type o+, 33yrs old female. I have had history of low blood sugar. For a number of yrs i have experienced alot of distress regarding food that i ate. After eating certain food i would feel worse that before! I eliminated wheat and realised that this was giving me reactions to my adrenal grands that make me feel so so so stressed. Yesterday i realised that this is also occuring whenever i eat grains. Even rice and especiall modified maize starch, which sends adrenals and my stress response crazy ( Just like hypoglacemic reactions). I have noticed that this is especially so lik yesterday when i accidently ate rice and something with modified maize starch in it. I spend a long time trying to relieve these symptoms of stress and it took another day to do so. I have read the live right book and it helps alot. I understand that grains are not good for type o. But i would like to ask for any advise around this reaction that i suffer from. I am a very sensitive person which may be be the reason why my body reacts so strongly. If you have any insights into this that you feel would be helpful to me i would very much appreciate this. Also any advise for what i can do to counteract this reaction, that is very stressful and help to remedy this situation, would be helpful. Yours sincerly, May you be happy. Sarah
Thanks for your kind wishes, Sarah! This is a simple problem to solve: no corn for you. It's a serious avoid. Anything with "corn" or "maize" is to be shunned like horrors. If you stay away from it, I promise those reactions will soon be just bad memories! take care, dear!! :-)
Can a "patch" worn on the arm containing "FUCUS VESICULOSUS and GARCINIA CAMBOGIA" be harmful or beneficial to curb appetite for O's? PLEASE ADVISE ASAP. THANKS!! Pennie
Hi, Pennie ~ A patch, eh? What will they think of next to market to people desirous of weight loss? I opine that it will do nothing to curb your appetite, but will certainly lighten your wallet. Truly, you'll have much better results (and more expendable funds) following the diet, taking l-glutamine for cravings until they subside with time on the diet, use encapsulated fucus, and skip the garcinia altogether ~ Peter tested it some time back, with no significant results.
I hope this helps, dear! :-)
HELLO, I am a type O positive and have been using this diet for the past few months. I have trouble sticking closely to the diet even though I have some troublesome health issues like an auto-immune thyroid problem and seem to be developing "asthma". Cake and cookies lure me as well as other wheat based snacks, especially at other people's houses. I'm good about the dairy and pretty good about the corn products, although eating mexican food is a weakness too. Do you have any advice on increasing will-power? Also, do you have a recipe for ghee? I'd like to make it at home. Thanks so much, Marian
Hi, Marian ~ Will power is a result of desire, although most folks think of it as soldiering through some painful process. What looks like will power from the outside is often well-founded and pleasurable commitment based on experience, on the inside. The contrast between having asthma attacks and not having them motivates many people to choose the good foods over the old standbys. Seeing the weight come off, or the cholesterol drop, or the thyroid meds stepped down... or the skin improve, or the arthritis disappear... one's values change, and the world changes with them. The tempting treat literally becomes "that poison that makes my joints swell and burn." So, each of us finds a way to handle hunger that doesn't involve eating poisons. Planning ahead, bringing a snack, offering a dish or two for the potluck, etc. ~ your preferred lifestyle will guide you as to what measures to take!
About the ghee, I *can* help you there! :-D Take one pound of butter (my favorite is organic cultured sweet-cream), melt it in a deep pan over medium-low heat (NO stirring at all, in this process), then raise the heat to medium-high and keep it at a medium/high simmer until the foam subsides. Skim off the thick stuff that comes to the top with a slotted spoon. When that's gone, dip a strip of paper into it and light it (over the sink). If the paper sputters, the ghee's not done yet. Test it again in a few minutes. When the paper burns without sputtering, take the ghee off the heat to cool for ten minutes ~ then pour it into a heavy glass jar with a close-fitting top (leave it loosely closed until cool), and let it cool completely. That's it! Some folks like to strain it through cheesecloth, but I've not found it necessary. And everyone has their own tips & tricks, so you'll probably come up with some of your own, as well. Enjoy! It's lovely stuff! :-D

Average yardage is 130-180 yds per skein, bulky weight. 16 different colors, plied together for a tweedy striping effect when knit or crocheted.

They don't use any herbicides, pesticides, dips, footbaths or regular injections on their sheep, and no bleach or other chemicals in the processing of the wool - so it is, according to them, some of the purest, cleanest wool you will find on the planet. There is also a bit of natural brown local rare breed farm wool in this particular coloway.Yarns will be hand dyed and spun to order, so it will take approx. 4 weeks to receive your finished yarn(s). If you order multiple skeins of any colorway, all of them will be from the same dyelot.

Castlemaine's Video Ezy has closed its doors for the final time, as video stores around the region continue to be wound back by market pressures.
Yesterday's closure leaves one rental store open in Castlemaine and five video stores in Bendigo.
Local video store owners say they're having to adapt their businesses to survive, with the rental industry in a global slump.
It follows a trend of internet downloads, pirated discs and competing entertainment options that's pausing the growth of the DVD rental market, they say.
Castlemaine and Bendigo Video Ezy franchise owner Paul Uniacke said the reality was that Castlemaine couldn't support two video stores.
"The business is forever changing. Where some towns could support three stores there may now be only two," he said.
"There wasn't a drastic decline in business at the store, it just couldn't be sustained."
Mr Uniacke said he expected demand for rentals to remain steady while the industry continued to evolve.
"Over the next year or two you'll see more DVD rental kiosks popping up and changing the way we do business a bit," he said.
Kangaroo Flat Family Videoland owner Lizette Jackson-Maher said change in viewer habits and easy access to videos online were impacting rental stores.
She said there was a relatively strong rental market in Australia compared to the US where video companies have gone bankrupt.
"It's a lot of little pieces of the rental industry that have been taken away over time. Once upon a time it was the only way to get a movie," Ms Jackson-Maher said.
"At the moment I'm unable to employ anybody else to do hours here where before I've had quite a number of staff.
"It's impacting on local jobs."
Ms Jackson-Maher said the store, which has been open more than 30 years, recently branched out to more specialised genres, such as Japanese anime cartoons, to attract customers.
"When we first took over we didn't dream of anime, but we saw it as a niche. A lot of video stores have diversified into other areas with in-store businesses such as stocking party supplies."
Castlemaine Family Videoland owner Scott Dew said he was optimistic about the level of local support.
"We've seen a lot of closures in cities but in the country we've got a slightly different demographic with older people who don't download as much," he said.
"People still meet here and get their fish and chips on a Friday night."
After Castlemaine Video Ezy announced its closure, Mr Dew said Family Videoland had received an extra 150 members.
It has also looked at alternate business options, with an Optus phone dealership now set up in-store.
Fast forward a few years and the store might look completely different, Mr Dew said.
He said the interest in renting DVDs would always be there as stores "change along the way to adapt to customer needs".
"It may decline a bit, but for us every year we've been opened since 2005 we've grown," Mr Dew said.
"You've got to keep evolving your business."

SHERMAN, Tex. -- The numbers of sexual assault cases are staggering. According to the National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center, nearly 87,000 children experienced sexual assault in 2001.
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. It's a time to promote awareness and learn ways to stop it.
From the National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center:
"Sexual assault involves sexual acts that are forced upon individuals against their will. These acts can be physical (such as rape or unwanted sexual touching), verbal (such as sexually abusive or threatening speech), or psychological (such as voyeurism or exhibitionism). Anyone can be a victim of sexual assault. However, women and girls are more likely than males to experience violence of this type. Sexual assault is most often committed by someone known to the victim such as a spouse, family member, co-worker, friend or acquaintance, although it can also be committed by a stranger."

"The battle's done and we kinda won, so we'll sound our victory cheer. Where do we go from here" – Joss Whedon, Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Oct 13, 2010 – The Deepwater oil ban was lifted by the President, but what does it mean? On the surface, it would seem that deepwater drilling off the Gulf would get back to normal. As always, reality is far different. A number of different environmental organizations, such as the Sierra Club, think it's too soon to lift the ban. Some drilling companies fear that even though the ban has been lifted, the new regulations and red tape will prevent them from being able to drill. So what does the lifting of the ban and the new regulations really mean?
On April 30th, the President issued a moratorium on offshore drilling based open depth, meaning that companies could not drill new wells at depths greater than 500 feet. This did not stop the wells that were already producing. It also did not stop new wells or modification of existing wells that had obtained their permits before the moratorium went into effect. What happened next is what almost happens with every new law, it was challenged in court. Judge Feldman ruled that the moratorium was overly broad and would harm the Gulf Economy.
A 2nd offshore drilling moratorium was put into place. This time it applied to any deep water facilities with drilling capabilities. And again, as soon as the law was in place it was challenged in court. The 2nd moratorium was to be in effect till November 30, but it was listed October 12, nearly 7 weeks early.
Does that mean that offshore drilling has taken off? No. No it does not. Now there are new regulations that must be met. Some of the new regulations include making the CEO responsible for making sure the well has met all the safety requirements and having equipment on site to help contain a blowout, if one should occur. Companies are waiting for a final list of the new regulations. Some environmental organizations are unhappy with how quickly the moratorium has been lifted, but some congressmen are unhappy about the moratorium effect's on the jobs in the Gulf. Many of the offshore drilling platforms have left the Gulf for more profitable waters.

The Tritons began the day in a three-way tie for fifth place following an opening round 298 on Monday, but climbed two spots in the final team standings after carding a 279 in Round 2 and a 291 in Round 3. UCSD wrapped up the tournament with a final tally of 28-over par, 868 on the par-70, 6,537-yard layout.
The 279 and 291 on Tuesday were the Tritons' two lowest rounds in 2011-12.
"We had a really great tournament," head coach Mike Wydra said. "Considering the weather on Monday, I thought we played extremely well and we had several great individual performances, so we're very pleased."
UCSD's performance in San Bernardino was especially impressive considering the blustery conditions for much of the day on Monday. Round 2 was suspended due to rain and impending darkness and had to be finished Tuesday morning. Despite the break in the action, the Tritons still managed to card the second-best round of the tournament, with their 279 trailing only Chico State's third round 276.
Sophomore Lewis Simon was UCSD's top individual finisher, posting a final score of +3, 213 on the challenging Arrowhead Country Club course. Simon got better as the tournament went along, carding rounds of 75, 70 and 68 to finish in a three-way tie for fourth place overall.
Sophomore Jacob Williams was the Tritons' next-highest finisher, posting rounds of 77, 66 and 73 to wrap up at +6 overall. His 216 was good enough for a share of 10th place and his 66 in Round 2 was the lowest round by any player during the competition.
Williams finished one stroke in front of teammate Marc Herrmann, who shot back-to-back 72s after an opening round 73. Herrmann, who had the course abuzz after dropping a hole in one on the par-3, 213-yard No. 12 in Round 2, finished tied for 17th overall at +7, 217.
Fellow rookie Austin Shuxiao rounded out the scoring for UCSD, finishing with a share of 37th place at +14, 224. He carded rounds 75, 71 and 78.
Chico State, which held a six-shot lead over Grand Canyon after the first round, ran away with the team title at +5, 845 (285-284-276). The Wildcats finished 19 strokes in front of GCU, which finished in second place at +24, 864 (291-293-280). The Antelopes held off UCSD by a mere four strokes.
Individual medalist honors went to Chico State's Kyle Souza, who shot a 68 and 67 on Tuesday to wrap up the tournament at -5, 205. Jeremy Sanders of the University of Redlands and Kyle Chappell of Dixie State finished tied for second at +1, 211.
Wydra and the Tritons will now host the 62nd Annual Southern California Intercollegiate Championship March 12-13 at the Mission Viejo Country Club.

In fairness to Source, at least he is an @sshhole to everybody. He is consistent; have to give him credit for that. Others just pick fights with us mortals and kiss the mod's a$$es.
I didn't bother to read any of the comments so forgive me if this was already stated :
Does anyone believe that the reason this happened was so Mark Sanchez wouldn't be heckled every 5 seconds by the gathered crowd?
Honestly, I think the biggest reason is economics. They literally have to pack up camp and move it to LI for one day. I also think Hofstra dropping its football program might play a role b.c they might not have all the equipment available to them anymore.
They were to college football as Duke is to Basketball.
(well okay...I'm exaggerating just a tad. )
Anyway, I think if Rex had his way, he would make sure that the Jets only have CLOSED-DOOR Training-Camp Practices with no chance that any fans would hurt Suckchez's feelings.
I still don't get this. It comes across as whiny. As someone mentioned above, the Jets did what was best for the Jets. The fact that, half of their season ticket holders reside in LI (quoting you from a few pages above Sooth) shouldn't obligate them to go out of their way from upstate New York down to LI for one measly night of practice. If someone loves the team that much and was willing to take a day off from work to attend practice, make the 4-5 hour drive to Cortland one day (or even on a weekend!). I just dont see why anyone feels as if the team owes you something because they moved to a world-class facility in Florham Park and decided to do what most other NFL teams do, which is going away for training camp. If you're really that against the team not having practice there, then drop your tickets (I realize how irrational that is - but I think its a bit more rational than expecting them to drop everything and come to Hofstra for a day to appease residents of their past hometown).
I signed. Never did like the trek, nor the area, but meeting up with fellow fans and watching practice was very enjoyable. Even when they just scrimmaged 1 day a year was fun. When Favre was signed it was like the Beatles just landed. Never saw Hofstra so crowded.
Even though I live close by, I don't go to practices anymore. For that one game, yes I'd go to LI.
Half naked pics of men in tight clothes wearing cups = cool
Half naked pics of woman = not cool
I signed; supporting those that want to get this point across.

Cordygen 5 Log! (Sponsored)
Cordygen 5 Log! (Sponsored)
Hey guys, just started my Cordygen 5/diet program today.
Height 6'0
Weight 165
I'm not strictly using the cut diet 2.0, but im incorporating a lot of the ideas from it and will be using these additional supplements.
Orange Triad
Maca root (150g)
2 bottles grapeseed extract
Glutaform (digestion/maintaining level stomach acid ph)
2nd bottle cordygen 5
Fish Oil
Prim ZMA
Breakfast today was Salmon Fillet with 6 almonds and about 8 pieces asparagus. Had 3 caps OT, 1 Cap GSE and 1 Cap Fish oil with breakfast and two cups of water. I have a 4pm training session with my trainer dan to begin the next phase of a push/pull program im doing 3 days a week but it might bump up to 4. slept from a little after midnight to 10am today so I'm feeling pretty good.
On off days i'll be doing cardio, running down to the sound and back from my house, as well as some biking, depending on my endurance. I stopped taking medicine about 3 years ago for a very mild form of asthma, so any endurance boost is welcome! For during workouts i'll be using up the rest of some Anabolic Innovations Excell i have (4 scoops or so with some Splenda)
When i'm on the go or can't pack my food in time for work, which starts july 5th on a hiking trail, I'll be brining Designer Nutrition Sustain Bars which taste awesome and i used a ton while i was in japan recently when we didn't have time to stop for food.
I'll update after my first workout with cordygen 5 with 3 caps dosed pre workout with a light meal or protein shake that i'll throw some maca in.
Additional Note: Yesterday just for curiosity i requested some additional blood work from my GP and got full metabolic panel test including glucose, kidney function, uric acid, liver health, total testosterone, free testosterone and estrogen. I'll probably know the results when i go to see my doc for my yearly checkup july 25th.
Previous injuries: Just recovered from impact induced bursitis in my right knee. One of my friends and i were fighting and he decided to be serious about it so i landed on my kneecap on concrete. No cartilage, bone damage, the bursa sac was drained and has now completely receded back into my knee. Orange triad has a join complex so i'll comment on if i feel any different as well in this log.
Just had my second meal
AI WPI Mocha Mud Slide W/ Natty Peanut Butter and finished off the asparagus-threw in some Maca would tasted pretty good.
Took the dog for a 30min walk and just have my dentist appointment in about 15min. I'll update after my workout at 5-5:30pm Est.
Had last meal before my workout
took my cordygen 5 caps (3)
2 Fish oil caps
Meal was:
handful almonds
small cup brown rice
egg whites with omega-3's
1 serving anabolic innovations Whey Protein Isolate
Family's cooking up skinless chicken breast and some top sirloin steaks for me to use throughout the week for those wondering why i don't have more meat in the diet today.
endurance changed a tiny bit not much.
started new phase in the program after not having deadlifted for a while w/ bursitis.
Did 2 sets of 135lbs for 10 reps, as well as 185lb squats for 8 reps. Did some other leg stuff and went out to wild wings for a quick meal just got a salad while my friends got irresistable wings lol. Mixed splenda and maca into my cottage cheese and had that 45min ago. Once i reach the hour mark i'll take my ZMA and doze off. Good day overall and no GI issues or anything from any supplements i started today .
slept well but woke up kind early at 9am because i got a call on the cell. Really hot today but had a great breakfast.
Top cut sirloin steak with an egg over easy on top along with some spinach. Took my orange triad, fish oil and grapeseed extract with breakfast. Meal two was two hours later and was another cup of spinach and one serving of WPI with maca and glutamine. I'll do a run later today but the doms from last workout are pretty bad so i have to loosen up the legs with a foam roller and some other stretches.
What kind of runs do you do? Are they performance or aesthetic based? I am always looking for supplements to help me in the endurance and recovery department.
M.Ed. Ex Phys
thunderstorm/lightning like crazy and had a few flashes where we lost power for a bit so i did the stationary bike at home. 30minte ~330 calories and it was intense since its in my attic with no AC so it was ~85-90 degrees in there
Felt great and had cottage cheese for my last meal with one scoop WPI and gettting ready to doze off. I've got another training session scheduled tomorrow for another phase of the program at 3pm, so i'll be warming up/stretching and doing ab-work at 2:30. :dl:
Also no chest tightness or discomfort, and breathing was pretty easy. I'll try and really push myself jogging or something in the hot weather on my next cardio day (friday) to see how it is. I had about 4 cups of spniach/green beans today and after my run had a banana with whey and a tiny bit of milk with ice thrown in the blender. Pretty good tasting
Had my training session yesterday doing the push pull with bench, lat row, dumbell standing lat row (one hand on bench) Did pretty good and got a sick pump. Did 50lbs in each hand for the dumbell row for 12 reps for each arm and two sets of it. :bruce3:
So far feeling good, lungs are feeling nice. Today i'm hoping to ramp up to a 40min intense cardio session, but i'll have to see considering DOMS in my legs/glutes are still very apparent.
ran 4 miles yesterday and felt great! No wheezing at all.
Today was good in the gym, endurnace was nice and was able to get out more chinups than usual.
Dinner was tuna burger on a kaiser roll w/ grilled sweet potato on the new grill me and my dad assembled from scratch today
ran again felt great. Was supposed to do legs today but knee cap felt tender yesterday. Upon closer look, bursitis is back somewhat. I'm laying off legs till i see a doctor which would be friday or monday. gonna go ahead and do arms/back today. If the bursa keeps getting inflamed (its the dead bursa, new one is already regrowing) then i'm probably gonna have the dead sac cut out once and for all so it doesn't recur anymore.
doing alright. Still dosing at 6 a day but with this bursitis flare up the knee hurts to the touch so i'll only be doing light-impact cardio for now.
