: : Gina,
: : The Moen Posi-Temp valve requires even pressure on both the hot and cold. If either one is slightly plugged, there will be little pressure. Sometimes the plug is in the cartridge itself. It doesn't sound like it in this case, since it "has" been replaced. You may be able to remove the cartridge (water off) and blow with compressed air through the valve fittings. Perhaps there is some loose crud in the pipes. How old is the home, galv pipes anywhere?

How do you check for equal hot and cold pressure?

AHL Prospect Rankings: #9 – Tyler Spurgeon
Jonathan Willis
February 17 2009 11:17AM
There is one major concern with Tyler Spurgeon, a concern that could ultimately decide whether or not he has an NHL career: injuries. Just last season, it was possible that Spurgeon would never play hockey again after suffering a serious concussion initially described as "career-ending". Other than that, he's on the smallish side and his offensive upside at the NHL level is questionable at best.
Position: Centre
Size: 5'10", 188lbs
Birth-date: April 10, 1986
Shoots: Left
Spurgeon spent his junior career with the Kelowna Rockets of the WHL, where he was a part of two WHL championships and a Memorial Cup championship. Here are his numbers out of junior:
Spurgeon was a bit player on the 2002-03 WHL Champions, a team that went 51-14-6-1 and scored 311 goals while allowing only 164 for a whopping +157 goal differential. The Rockets were coached by Marc Habscheid and featured future NHL'ers Duncan Keith, Josh Gorges, Shea Weber, Blake Comeau, and Nick Tarnasky. Surprisingly enough, the Rockets were led offensively by a quartet of future minor-leaguers (Jesse Schultz, Kiel McLeod, Tyler Mosienko and Tomas Slovak). Spurgeon and Comeau were the only 16-year olds on the team, and Spurgeon's +4 was below average on a team this strong.
The 2003-04 Kelowna Rockets were the Habscheid team that won the Memorial Cup, and while they still had a strong season, they didn't romp through the league like they had the year before. They posted a 47-21-4 record, with 185 goals for and 125 against, for a +60 goal differential. Spurgeon's +7 was a hair below average on the team when adjusted for the number of games that he missed. Offensively, Spurgeon was in on 13% of the offense, a number that jumps to 19% when adjusted for games missed, making him a slightly above average offensive player as a 17-year old junior. Spurgeon also served as an assistant captain.
Marc Habscheid left the team after winning the Memorial Cup, so assistant coach Jeff Truitt was promoted for 2004-05. Spurgeon had his finest year as a junior, playing in all 72 games and leading the team in scoring. The Rockets went 45-13-12-2, scoring 215 goals and allowing 139, for a +76 goal differential. Spurgeon was in on 33.5% of the team's offense, showing a much better scoring touch than he had exhibited previously, and his +20 was one of the best numbers on the team. Spurgeon turned it up in the playoffs, scoring 11 goals in 24 games en route to the league championship, all while suffering through an injured shoulder, which he had surgery on in the offseason.
Spurgeon was named captain of the Rockets for 2005-06, but he missed the first half of the season recovering from surgery. The Rockets went 46-22-1-3 while posting a +55 goal differential (243GF/188GA). Spurgeon figured in on 18% of his team's offense, but he had a slow start and was scoring at a point-per-game pace to close out the year.
Spurgeon turned pro for 2006-07. Here are his numbers as a professional:
2006-07 was a good year for Spurgeon on the whole. He started the season in the ECHL, but that can at least partially be attributed to the lack of an Oilers' AHL affiliate. Once he was recalled by Wilkes-Barre, they kept him for the remainder of the season. In the ECHL, the Thunder scored 225 goals and allowed 197, for a +28 goal differential. Adjusting for games played, Spurgeon's +7 was well above the team average, and figured in on just under 24% of the Thunder's offense. At the AHL level, Spurgeon's +/- was slightly below the team average, and he figured in on 12.8% of the Penguins' offense (again, adjusting for games played).
Spurgeon's AHL numbers in 2007-08 were exceptional, but his luck was not. He suffered a major back and shoulder injury in training camp, and then appeared in twelve games before being derailed by a concussion. Guy Flaming had a nice article describing Spurgeon's return from injury. Not much earlier, Flaming had cut Spurgeon from Hockey's Future's Top-20, with the following note:
If continually healthy, Spurgeon's name would be higher on the top 20 list but there are questions as to whether he can carve out a lasting career having had two major shoulder surgeries and a long layoff due to a concussion. If heart, determination and character were all that it took to get back on the ice, he would have been back playing a long time ago.
This year has been a bounce-back season for Spurgeon. He was named the fittest player in training camp, something that Spurgeon attributed to a need to make up for time lost to injury. Craig MacTavish, who recently threw Spurgeon's name out as a call-up possibility, had some positive things to say about him in camp:
"There are some guys who just don't leave a stone unturned in terms of their preparation ... and he's obviously one of those guys. He thinks the game incredibly well, does literally everything in the game that he can. The one thing he has trouble with at times is skating, and when you're conditioned as well as he is right now, his skating looks very adequate."
Spurgeon's 17 points and -2 rating come against the best players in the AHL, and they come on a team that has scored 120 goals while allowing 168. Among regular forwards, only Derek Bekar has a better +/- (+1). The downside is that Spurgeon's only figured in on just over 14% of his team's offense, so he isn't lighting the world on fire scoring-wise, but he's certainly been the most effective defensive player on the Falcons, and he's been praised time and again this season for his character and his willingness to get involved physically.
If he can stay healthy, I think Spurgeon has a very good shot at an NHL career. He should be a very good fit on the 4th line (perhaps even as early as next season), and may even have potential as a shut-down centre on the third line, based on his use in the AHL this season. He'll never be a high-end scorer, but his track record would seem to indicate that he has more offensive prowess than he's showed this season, something that might become more obvious if he were used in an offensive role.

AHL Performance Compares To: Marty Reasoner
Projection: NHL 4th-Liner
February 17 2009, 12:22PM
AHL Performance Compares To: Alex Burrows
That must be based on numbers, because he plays nowhere near the crap-disturber style of Burrows, nor does he skate as well.
I agree that his faceoffs and smarts might land him a gig in the Show down the road.
JW, based on how crap they are right now, I give you credit for finding eight guys who are better than Spurgeon in Springfield. You are an optimist.
February 17 2009, 12:45PM
@ Jason Gregor:
Yeah - based on results. I tried to find somebody with similar levels of a) offense b) quality of competition c) defensive ability d) feisty game and e) size deficiencies who would be familiar to people here, and Burrows was about as close as I could get. I almost said Reasoner, but from what I've seen Spurgeon's quite a bit more willing to mix it up. On the other hand, Spurgeon's skating compares better with Reasoner, so maybe I should have gone that way.
As for guys who are better, I don't want to give out the full list, but there are a couple of defensemen and a goaltender, and the forwards have already seen NHL time. I also knocked him down a little bit on account of his injury history. I'm glad you agree with me on Spurgeon - he just seems like one of those guys who will make it, despite the odds.
February 17 2009, 02:09PM
These numbers have something in common:
-5' 9" 168 -5' 10" 174 -5' 10" 175 -5' 10" 180 -5' 10" 180 -5' 10" 184 -5' 11" 185 -5' 10" 188 -5' 11" 191
If you guessed They're all inflated, you'd be correct!
February 17 2009, 02:37PM
@ Mr DeBakey: BINGO!!!!
February 17 2009, 05:12PM
"If he can stay healthy, I think Spurgeon has a very good shot at an NHL career."
Sorry Jonathon, but don't you think you're overstating things, here? What does 'very good shot at' mean? To me, it sounds like you mean 60-75% chance of being an NHL regular. (If you mean 10-35% shouldn't you have said something like 'reasonable chance' or even 'outside chance'?)
Or by NHL career do you mean occasional roster player?
I mean, maybe I'm just undervaluing AHL guys like Spurgeon, but do all AHL'ers with similar career paths, pedigree, and statistics have a 'very good shot' at an NHL career.
I don't mean to be critical, and I think I see what you're saying, but words matter, and we think we have a habit of overvaluing -or at least speaking in a way that sounds like overvaluing- our prospects.
February 17 2009, 05:15PM
Another way of putting the same point:
If the Oilers 9th best prospect has a 'very good shot' at an NHL career, we have far and away the best prospect pool in hockey, no? (The Springfield team doesn't seem so talent-laden to me.)
We already have enough plugs on this team. He is just another Toby except he can take faceoffs.
February 17 2009, 08:48PM
@ Tencer's Brain Cell:
If he can stay healthy, I'd say Spurgeon has a better than 60% chance of at least playing five seasons on an NHL roster. It seems like he has the character, and all of the little habits that appeal to coaches, plus he's excelling against the vaunt on a crap NHL team.

You need depth in the AHL; AHL players who can step in, or play a 4th line role on the cheap are always useful.
If he wants to be a shut down player he needs to learn how to skate. Simple as that. To play any role in the new NHL you need to have decent foot speed.

Marty Reasoner's having an amazing season in Atlanta, and skating has never been a strength for him.
February 18 2009, 07:52AM
When Reasoner broke into the league I do not think skating was nearly as important as it is today. The league is getting faster and faster ever year.

Does the WHL use alternate terminology? I thought it was "alternate" captain.

Yes, but he's having an amazing season this year, and I doubt very much his skating has improved from last season.

Assistant/alternate; I always get the two mixed up. In this case I just used the terminology in the newspaper clip I was reading.
February 21 2009, 10:10AM
@ Tencer's Brain Cell: Sorry to disagree but Spurgeon offers a skillset that this team sorry lacks: he is smart, defensively responsible and thinks the game at a very high level. The Oilers have a dearth of players like that. He is also very good in the faceoff circle which is our biggest achilles heel. Spurgeon lacks footspeed and has a history of injuries, if he can make up for the LOF he will make our team and play 10-12 minutes a game. He will also be cheap!!!!

Inspiration by Tiit Helimets, Principal Dancer of San Francisco Ballet | Friday Nights at the de Young
This event is expired.
Photo by Alexander Reneff-Olson
featuring Tiit Helimets, principal dancer of San Francisco Ballet
Inspiration by Tiit Helimets
This evening features a multifaceted installation inspired by Estonia, the home country of Tiit Helimets, including the premiere of Blue, Black and White.
Part I: Film screening of Eastern Odyssey
6:30–7:15 pm
This film chronicles the journey of Helimets back to Estonia with a group of dancers from San Francisco Ballet, Ballet San Jose, and Milwaukee Ballet. Directed by Quinn Wharton
Part II: Film screening of Blue, Black, and White
7:15 pm
Created by Tiit Helimets with Rapt Productions, this film tells the story of how visual art can be created through dance. Helimets uses the three colors in the flag of his home country, Estonia, as three different canvases, and uses his expertise of dance as a vehicle to paint each canvas with opposing colors. Three principal dancers from San Francisco Ballet will trace the paint with their feet on the canvas while dancing original choreography.
Part III: Performance
7:45–8:15 pm
This 28-minute multidisciplinary installation encompasses three movements inspired by the colors of the Estonian flag.
- The first movement is inspired by the color blue, with a peaceful dance filled with ease and air representing the sky. Two characters representing immortal gods enter the space and interact with each other.
- The second movement is inspired by black, which represents the earth. The immortal gods have conversations about the trees that grow from earth and how they protected the people of Estonia during war. The dancers perform movements depicting the people's struggle during the war. This entire movement shows the effects of war on the nation.
- The third movement is inspired by hope, which is represented by the color white. Spirits rise from earth and reunite with the living. An overwhelming joy surrounds the characters on the stage. They form a chain, holding hands against oppression, and stand for freedom, which is won in the end.
While the performance is taking place in Wilsey Court, Dustin Shane paints in the Piazzoni Murals Room utilizing the concept of synesthesia, with his painting performance projected on the walls in Wilsey Court. See how the music affects the painter and what colors he sees when he hears this music for the first time.
This event will end with a question-and answer-session in front of the stage in Wilsey Court.

Canada Overpowers Korea in WL
Mississauga, Ontario, (June 14, 2013) Canada's men's volleyball team produced its most impressive performance in World League play on Friday with a decisive 25-19, 25-10, 25-18 victory over South Korea on Friday night at the Hershey Centre.
With the win Canada improves to 3-2 in tournament play and rejoins the Netherlands and Finland in first place in Group C with nine points. Only the top-team in the group advances to next month's World Leaue final tournament.
"We are getting more consistent, and have more discipline in the defense," said Canada's head coach Glenn Hoag. "(Libero) Dan Lewis made some key digs for us, and Dallas Soonias did a good job replacing Gavin (Schmitt). I expect the South Koreans to be better tomorrow."
Canada overpowered the smaller Koreans, and their block defense combination was perfectly synchronized.
South Korea started set one with some promise, but Canada regained its composure and confidence quickly to win by six points. Dallas Soonias (Red Deer, Alta.) and captain Fred Winters (Victoria, B.C.) contributed five points each in this set.
Canada's confidence continued into the second set as they made quick work of the Koreans with late-set substitution Nick Hoag, son of coach Glenn Hoag, finishing South Korea off with the game-winning point.
The third set was a closer competition at first, but still Canada managed to finish the game off in three.
Lewis didn't want to over-analyze his play, saying he had a little luck tonight and shouldn't underestimate the Koreans.
"It gets a little frustrating when they once and a while run old-school plays that you see in high school that usually aren't seen anymore," said Lewis, from nearby Oakville, Ontario. "I think they will be a lot tougher tomorrow."
Captain Fred Winters of Victoria, B.C. had a 14-point match, leading Canada in scoring. "It was a good game, we played well. It was a team effort, but now it's already past us and we have to think about tomorrow."
Kwang-In Jeon led Korea's scoring with 17.
"We were technically weak, especially in our serving. We weren't ready and we are looking forward to the next game," said Korea's coach Ki-Won Park.
The two teams play again Saturday night at 7 pm (Eastern) at the Hershey Centre. Canada then heads overseas to conclude its preliminary round schedule in Finland and Japan.
The first weekend of World League competition for the Canadians took place May 31 to June 1 at the Colisée Pepsi, Québec City, versus Netherlands with Canada winning the first match (25-22, 22-25, 27-25, 27-25) and the Netherlands winning the second match (25-22, 25-17, 20-25, 25-23). The second weekend was in Mississauga at the Hershey Centre June 7 and 8 against Portugal with Canada once again splitting the matches, winning (25-19 25-19 25-18) on June 7 and losing (19-25, 25-20, 18-25, 23-25) on June 8.

Main Steel Polishing increases capabilities
Main Steel Polishing Co. Inc., has announced additions to its plant in Bartlett, Ill. The additions will increase the capacity of the company's coil polish line and its plate buff line.
In August the company installed a 60,000-lb. by 60-in. Braner uncoiler with an overarm and a sliding base for its coil polish line. The addition enables the line to handle 40,000-lb. inbound coils, increasing capability by 10,000 lbs. Future plans include an increase in crane capacity to match the uncoiler.
The company's new 96-in. by 305-in. aluminum and stainless buff line, the company's second buff line, will be housed in the building addition. The line will double the facility's capacity to serve the truck-trailer and architectural industries.

Sarah Pavan joins beach program
(April 25, 2013) The beach volleyball season is underway and Canadian women's teams are off to a great start! Three events on the NORCECA Beach Volleyball Tour have taken place so far and Canadians have made the top of the podium in two events. Most recently, young newcomers Kacie Mactavish and Caleigh Whitaker claimed their first gold ever on the International circuit by defeating the USA team of Jenny Kropp and Whitney Pavlik in the final of the Guatemala stop on the tour, April 20-21, 2013. Mactavish was thrilled with the win, "The victory motivates us because it means that we're on the right track. Our partnership is beginning with high expectations."
Canadians also earned gold at the first NORCECA tour stop March 23-24. Canadians Jamie Broder and Kristina Valjas dominated the US team of Kropp and Pavlik defeating them in consecutive sets (21-15, 21-13) to claim gold in the Cayman Islands Beach Volleyball Tournament, the opening event of the 2013 NORCECA Circuit.
In addition to the great results, the women's beach volleyball program is pleased to announce that indoor volleyball standout Sarah Pavan will be joining the National beach volleyball program this season. Pavan will partner with Heather Bansley and will compete in their first event at the FIVB World Tour stop in Argentina at the Corrientes Grand Slam event May 22-26, 2013.
26 year old Sarah Pavan hails from Kitchener, Ontario and is one of Canada's most celebrated indoor women's volleyball players. The 6'5"right side player was a four-time First Team All-American at the University of Nebraska, who led her team to an NCAA title in 2006. Following her college career, Sarah played for a number of top professional indoor volleyball teams around the world and is currently a member of the Rio de Janeiro based team Unilever in the Brazilian League, who won the League Championship this year. Sarah has been a member of the Canadian Women's National Indoor Volleyball Team throughout the years, winning numerous awards, including "best scorer" at the 2012 NORCECA Olympic Qualification Tournament.
Sarah is no stranger to beach volleyball. She competed in the Beach Volleyball National Championships in her youth and was the 20U Silver medalist. Pavan also played for Nebraska in the Collegiate Sand Volleyball Championships prior to it being sanctioned by the NCAA. Bansley and Pavan will be training in California before heading to Argentina. Pavan is an exciting addition to the Women's Beach Volleyball program, which is starting to see great results already on the road to Rio 2016.

Skip to comments.Clackamas Mall Shooting: Shooter Jacob Tyler Roberts Trained Using Video Games
Posted on 12/15/2012 1:51:23 PM PST by drewh
Remember the Virginia tech shooting? Video games.
The Beltway sniper attacks? Video games.
And now the Clackamas mall shooting? Also video games, according to nationally recognized former attorney and anti-video game crusader Jack Thompson.
On Tuesday afternoon, shooter Jacob Tyler Roberts, 22, armed himself with a semi-automatic AR-15 and went on a rampage at the Clackamas Town Center in Portland, Oregon. He killed two and wounded another before committing suicide.
Thompson said in an interview that Given this guy's method, his age group and the randomness of it, it's more likely than not that he rehearsed for this on games.
Its hardly the first time he has jumped to that conclusion in the hours and days following a mass shooting.
Thompson has blamed video games, particularly the Grand Theft Auto franchise, for nearly every shooting imaginable.
(Excerpt) Read more at policymic.com ...
Ewww - can they blame the whole thing on a 'video'? It almost worked before...
And I agree. Guns have been with us in the U.S. for centuries. Violent video games, 20-25 years, tops. From Klebold to Lanza, this is a common thread.
THrow in Gansta Rap and much of hip hop and you have a huge piece of the picture.
garbage in, garbage out. If Hollyweird is gonna give the kids Grand Theft Auto to play on, what will happen to the kiddos?
Add to it death metal, and, would you believe... "melodic death metal"!
The both watched NBC News, I bet.
The 9-11 hijackers repeatedly "flew" the mission using Flight Simulator.
I forgot his name, but there is/was also somebody else, a psychologist or sociologist. who blamed video games, claimed that the games desensitize people to violence and that players eventually become bored, want to see "real blood."
Yea!He was also educated watching the trash coming out of Holllywood.Its the same damn thing.
How much training does it take to kill a classroom full of tots?
I believe the Columbine attackers were also vkiolent computer game addicts as well.
So, if I go into a mall and start throwing ice cubes at everyone, will they blame it on World of Warcraft because I played a Frost Mage?
I guess the zero responsibility "culture" has to blame something since no one is responsible for their own choices and actions anymore.
I believe video games are as much to blame and guns are....
It's the culture, we agree. But then, once you start listing the elements of the culture that contribute to the moral decay of the citizenry, such as video games, melodic (!) death metal, Hollywood, etc, consumers, fans and users of these genres immediately rise up with protests and sophomoric arguments defending the violent trash.
Never mind the fact that the schools are teaching subjective reality and the parents don't know what the kids are watching or playing.
Hollywood is only one tiny piece of the puzzle and removing it won't make much difference. Andrew Kehoe blew up the school in Bath Michigan in 1927 killing more than any other mass killer in American history and I don't even think wireless radio was in common usage then. He was hardly the first.
Here is a listing of just "rampage killers" that doesn't from the Americas.
as i posted else where
lets not confuse first-person-shooter video games with computer strategy (from squad level through corps level)wargames. but the clips instead of magazines crowd wont understand the distinction anyway.
Call me old fashion, but I would like to blame a*****e who did the crime.. But that is just me..
But never learned how to clear a jam.
If so that means this is the same dirty little trick the skid marks on Journalism's shorts ("reporters") used when describing the 1960s and 1970s "anti-war" demonstrators' "red, blue, and yellow protest banners." Those were Viet Cong flags.
I've always preferred strategy type games.
I haven't played any in years but the first Metal Gear game was set up so you actually did better by killing only a handful of targets and sneaking past most of the enemies in the game.
Those damned Guy Fawkes masks.
The Clackmas shooter was wearing a Guy Fawkes mask and Clint Tarver originally said the guy who started trashing the tent in Lansing was wearing a devil mask but when shown a Guy Fawkes mask he said that's exactly what it was.
Don't forget the psychotropic drugs that are so commonly prescribed today.
I saw the Lansing video and there was definitely a guy with a Guy Fawkes mask there.
Has it been established that the Clackamas shooter was wearing one? I tend to associate that mask with lefties.
Add in a touch of Asperger's related obsessive/compulsive issues.
In Conn. and recently in the case where the boy killed his mom and sister (mom was a teacher and assistant principal), it appears that both moms could sense trouble and attempted to clamp down and help their boys.
The one pulled her two kids out of school and began homeschooling.
In the Conn. case, we are learning Adam's mom stopped working so she could better help Adam.
And this is the reward they got - gunshots to the head.

In the 911 call on the Clackmas shooting the person making the call clearly stated that the shooter is wearing a "V for Vendetta" mask.
I'll see if I can find a video.
Parents keep buying that crap for the lil' darlings
I believe that the Colorado "Joker" movie theatre shooter was a gamer also. There does seem to be a connection to gaming amongst all of these massacre freaks.
Or maybe it's just that most people of their age-group would have played games?
Jack Thompson?
Is this the jack thompson from FR a long time ago,
back in the old days??? Nutcase, wacked out lawyer?
It's a combination of things.
Boys have become a new breed.
They are drugged for ADHD more than girls.
Education has been "reformed" to make sure teaching methods help girls excel.
And they do....locally, when we go to senior awards night - the girls are cleaning up those scholarships.
Valedictorians and salutorians....there are some boys here and there, but girls dominate that too.
They are outnumbering the boys in college.
There are a whole lot of video gaming, pot smoking, shiftless boys out there. Their hair is died black. Their clothes are black with chains. They are covered with tattoos and piercings.
They play their angry music and shoot people on their video games.
This "shooter" was stopped by a CCW permit holder who drew down on him, and decided not to fire for fear of hitting bystander in line of sight. CCW person was seen by the "shooter" before they decided to shoot themselves dead.
This HAS NOT been in media reports about this.
Crap now I can't find the civilian calls to 911 but the police are calling it a "Hockey type" mask.
I do know that its what the called said because FOX ran the text of the call.
I blame Post Twinkie Stress Disorder.
I blame Elvis.
Or not. Jack Thompson doesn't know his exit orifice from a taco.
The same. Bat Jack is back!
Whenever I see these horsesh*t conclusions being drawn, I remember something Rush says when they say this food or that food is bad for you: "Every single person who eats carrots is going to die."
Thanks.. I bet it's the same lefty covering-up (for the occupy pukes) like they did by describing the Viet Cong flag that "anti-war" protestors carried as "red, blue, and yellow" protest banners.
OK. But what made him (and dozens of others worldwide before video games) do it?
Obtained from an Internet source..

14. Springfield, Oregon May 21, 1998: [the shooter] had been taking the antidepressant Prozac.
Thanks for posting this.
I actually looked this afternoon at this info. People think this is a new phenomena. I was shocked at the 1927 Kehoe incident. Sort of sounded like OK City.
I will say that until recent times, there seemed to be a designated "target". Bullying seems to be the most recent "reason". Not a good reason...but at least some kind of reason. But walking into a mall, theater or classroom of first graders to kill evades me.
The media gives 24/7 coverage to these events. That may well encourage other people to seek that kind of notoriety. What a way to gain fame.
It is kind of amazing (and scary) the number of unhinged people that seem to walk among us. No doubt it's always been that way.
Its also important to note that more people = more targets and more nuts. Combine it with 24/7 media and they create the impression of an epidemic.
I was talking to my grandmother tonight and she reminded me of a story my great grandmother told me years ago about someone killing several children in a 1 room school near Petosky Michigan back in 1908 or so.
The fact is that this sort of thing has happened all through history one way or the other where people are gathered.
Well, thanks for checking. Sounds like that's probably what it was.
Soon we'll all build giant slingshots and go on pig-killing rampages.
LOL! Oh my.. you ARE old fashioned. We're MUCH smarter these days.. everything happens for a reason, and the blame MUST be assigned. Let's say, GUNS! Yea, that's the ticket. ;-)
The real cause is: FREEDOM.
Liberty brings out the best, and the worst in society. If we want pure security, all we have to do is give up liberty.

50+: Live Better, Longer
Insomnia, Anxiety Drugs May Raise Dementia Risk
Sept. 27, 2012 -- Seniors who take certain kinds of drugs to treat anxiety or insomnia may be more likely to develop dementia than those who do not, a new study shows.
Seniors are often prescribed benzodiazepines or similar drugs to help with sleeping problems or anxiety. And even though most of these drugs are only meant to be used for a few weeks or months at a time, the drugs can be habit forming. Studies have found that many older adults stay on them longer, sometimes for years.
The new study, which is published in the BMJ, compared the risk of dementia in two groups of French seniors -- 95 who were recent users of any of 23 benzodiazepines or similar drugs at the start of the study and 968 who were not.
During the next 15 years, doctors diagnosed 253 cases of dementia. Thirty people (32%) who had taken benzodiazepines or similar drugs developed memory loss and difficulty thinking, compared to 223 people (23%) who had not taken them. Drugs used by people in this study included Ambien, Halcion, Klonopin, Restoril, Valium, and Xanax.
Even after accounting for other things that are known to affect brain function, like age, living alone, depression, high blood pressure, and diabetes, researchers found that seniors who took benzodiazepines were about 60% more likely than those who didn't to develop dementia.
Association, Not Cause
The study doesn't prove that benzodiazepines cause declines in memory and brain function. And researchers say very short-term use of the drugs is probably safe.
But other experts say seniors may want to avoid the drugs altogether.
"There is a growing body of evidence that the use of benzodiazepines is a risk factor for poor [brain function] in older adults," says Cara Tannenbaum, MD, of the University of Montreal in Canada.
Tannenbaum has recently reviewed evidence that supports a link between benzodiazepines and dementia, but she was not involved in the current research.
"In my opinion there is a very definite cause for concern, not only because of obvious memory impairment but because of the well-documented risk of falls and car accidents," she says.

Beer Man is a weekly profile of beers from across the country and around the world.
This week: Samuel Adams White Lantern
Boston Beer Co., Boston
Samuel Adams just does not slow down, with a slew of spring releases consisting of an original variation of a witbier, two variety packs and the return of a favorite German lager.
White Lantern is the Belgian-style witbier, packed not only with the typical coriander and orange peel spices, but also grains of paradise and tangerine peel. The beer gets its name from the lanterns used on the ships that carried spices back to Belgium in the 17th century.
The ale's pour reveals a light straw-colored, slightly hazy beer with subtle aromas of citrus fruit and biscuity malt. The dominant flavor is of tangerine, a nice twist to the witbier style.
The lemon-orange notes of the coriander complements the tangerine and orange peel, and the grains of paradise add not only another citrusy component, but also a peppery bite. The use of some wheat malt in the 5.5% ABV beer adds a slight sweetness to counteract some fruity tartness. Some minimal bitterness is present that seems more from the rind of the tangerine and orange peel than hops, which have a minor presence. The carbonation is medium and contributes to a nice mouthfeel without being spritzy.
White Lantern is available in bottles and in a Spring Thaw variety pack that also includes Alpine Spring, Irish Red, Double Agent IPL, Boston Lager and Maple Pecan Porter.
The brewery has also just released an IPA (India Pale Ale) Hopology Variety 12-Pack, consisting of Whitewater, Grumpy Monk, Latitude 48, Tasman Red, Dark Depths and Third Voyage. These include mixes of the extra hoppy IPA style with others such as witbier, Baltic porter and Belgian amber, each with different hop mixtures of rather unfamiliar varieties such as Zeus, Topaz, Ahtanum, Galaxy and Mosaic, along with more familiar ones such as Cascade, Simcoe and Saaz. It packs a big tasty beer education in a small pack.
Add to these recent offerings single bottles of the tasty seasonal Alpine Spring German-style lager and you have a nice variety of beers to choose from this season from the brewery. Its Beer Finder link, searchable by ZIP code, is at www.samueladams.com/find-a-sam.
Many beers are available only regionally. Check the brewer's website, which often contains information on product availability. Contact Todd Haefer at email@example.com. To read previous Beer Man columns Click here.

PRICE-Our incredibly loving and caring wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, Alice Marie Schoenberger Beacco, age 73, died Jan. 23, 2010 peacefully at home after a courageous battle with cancer.
Alice was born June 9, 1936 in Durango, Colo. to Carl and Beatrice McCormick Schoenberger. She married her loving husband and life partner Amedeo Beacco on July 28, 1956 at St. Anthony's Church in Helper.
Alice was an active member of Notre Dame Catholic Church. She contributed many years of selfless service to the members of the parish. She loved Notre Dame School and she gave many years of her life volunteering in various capacities there.
She will always be remembered as the best softball player to ever grace a field. She played for 17 years, beginning with the Rio Grande Cafe Team, Lee's Bee's, and then of course her beloved Mitchell's Mummies. In all her years on third base not one ground ball ever made it past her.
She loved nothing more than spending time and doing anything for her family. There was never a game, recital, concert, wedding, or graduation that she missed.
Her son Mike was her absolute pride and joy and she spent years cheering him on with whatever he chose to do. She coached his Little League baseball team, traveled with his football teams, and could always be found with cases of oranges for the guys.
Being a grandmother then became her life. She loved her grandkids more than anything and would make sure they knew she would do anything for them.
Alice never met a stranger. She will always be remembered for her hugs and every time you saw her you were greeted with a hug, a huge smile, and a person who wanted you to feel special and appreciated. Alice meant so much to so many. She was more than an aunt and more than a friend. She was a one-of-a-kind person that we were all privileged to know.
Alice received the Visionary Service Leader Award in 2005 for her outstanding community service. She was also recognized as the Catholic Woman of the Year in 2008. She loved that honor and deserved every round of applause and hug that she received. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Survived by her wonderful husband Amedeo of Price; loving son, Mike (Martha) Beacco, St. George; grandchildren, Drew, Sarah, Deric, and Delaney Beacco, St. George, Sandi Beacco, St. George, Evan Fox, Cedar City, Tammy(Brad) Wilkinson, California, Kimmee Mattson, Cedar City, most loving niece, Lois Tamllos, Helper; nephews, Jim (Bobbi) Snyder, Riverton, George (DeNise) Snyder, Price; sister-in-law, Gena Beacco, Price; brother, Albert (Billie) Schoenberger, Vernal; sister, Anna Kontas, Salt Lake; brother, George (Linda) Schoenberger, North Carolina; and many other nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, two sisters and one brother, Mary Ellen Vetere, Frances Howard and Carl J. Schoenberger.
Funeral Mass, Saturday, Jan. 30, 2010, 10 a.m., Notre Dame de Lourdes Catholic Church, (190 North Carbon Ave.) in Price. Vigil service, Friday evening 7 p.m., Mitchell Funeral Home, (233 East Main Street). Family will be at Mitchell's Friday and Saturday one hour prior to services. Committal service, Price City Cemetery.
Alice did not want flowers. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Notre Dame Building Fund in her memory. Online condolences of Alice can be shared at mitchellfuneralhome.net

We had about an hours down time this morning due to a fight between a 97 Ford Explorer and one of our old power poles. The pole lost. Well, actually you should have seen the other guy too - what a mess. There were splinters and glass everywhere. But our greedy electric company was their usual prompt self and got us back online in record time with little loss of revenue. I apologize for any inconvenience this must have caused. Thanks.
Did SCO end up helping Linux?Submitted by srlinuxx on Monday 7th of February 2005 06:55:53 AM Filed under
Here's a real nice article by Stuart Cohen on Businessweek Online exclaiming that SCO's legal maneuvers only made Linux stronger. It states SCO's litigation seemed to bring developers and the community together fighting for the cause. He says "we can thank SCO for helping to move Linux even faster from the fringe of the computer network to the heart of the data center."

A little birdie told me that an update to the acclaimed PCLinuxOS Preview 8 is in the works and possibly due out next week. Details are a bit sketchy at this time, but it seems Tom has been hard at work updating the hardware detection and mklivecd scripts. Now don't get your hopes up, but I hear it might sport a newer 2.6.10 kernel, including patches to fix a little kvm switch problem. Of course it will include all kinds of application updates and other goodies. More on this as it develops.
Mandrake's Clustering AgainSubmitted by srlinuxx on Sunday 6th of February 2005 04:49:03 AM Filed under

They want to harness our cpu cycles, and it sounds like for commercial purposes. Show me the money then I say. Until then, I'm looking for aliens.

More BS from the Evil One.Submitted by srlinuxx on Friday 4th of February 2005 07:56:15 PM Filed under
Seems Mr. Gates is at it again with saying one thing while trying to cleverly conceal his jabs at Linux. This time speaking of interoperability amongst differing architectures while stating that doesn't mean open source as open source is detrimental to interoperability.

Beautiful Shoes
"I bought this shoe months ago and wore them twice. They are not comfortable at all. I had to take them off after 5 minutes of wearing them. They do look good on but that's about all."

Love Love Love this shoe and the height
"I love a high heel, and I love a shoe that stands out. This shoe instantly caught my eye. I walk around in them even if I have no where to go they are just that comfortable to wear."

Super Cute!
"I have these in all black suede. They are great and provide good balance because of the thicker heal. ( I don't wear heels too often so this helped me)"
