LAKE FOREST, Ill. — Caddie Joe LaCava was grumbling as he walked off the 16th green after his boss, Tiger Woods, had just burned another edge with another birdie putt after starting his round on the 10th hole.
Matters got a little better from there on in, but the world No. 1's putter remained hot and cold the rest of the first round Thursday in the BMW Championship, the third leg of the FedExCup playoffs.
LEADERBOARD: BMW Championship
That's why Woods was far from happy despite shooting a 5-under-par 66 at Conway Farms Golf Club to grab a share of third place, three shots behind pace-setter Brandt Snedeker, the defending FedExCup champion.
"I wasted a lot of shots out there," said Woods, who has won the BMW Championship (formerly known as the Western Open) five times but not since 2009. The only two-time winner of the FedExCup, however, remains in solid position to claim his third title next week in Atlanta at The Tour Championship. He was No. 2 in the standings heading into this week.
Woods added, with a heavy dose of sarcasm, that he played the par-5s "stupendously." For the record, Woods made par on each of the three par-5s.
But the five-time winner this year was steaming because of what happened with his putter. While he ended his round with a 23-footer for birdie, he was thinking about the two 3-footers he missed for par on Nos. 4 and 6 and the 5-footer he missed for birdie on No. 8.
"I'm not exactly real happy," Woods said. "I played well, and I just didn't get much out of that round. I missed three little short ones in there and then played the par-5s even par. That's just not very good."
Especially on a course that was there for the taking.
"The guys really took advantage of it today," Woods said. "The greens weren't as fast as they were (Wednesday), and you certainly could be a lot more aggressive, and just it was a golf course in which you could be really, really aggressive. … It's warm still, so the ball was still traveling. Some of the holes we're hitting 3-wood just over 300 yards and things of that nature.
"The course played short."
But it was the shortest shots that bedeviled Woods the most. He had a respectable 28 putts — but missed far too many makeable ones. Woods played the course for the first time Wednesday and the unfamiliar feel, especially on the greens, got him in the first round.
The last time Woods won a tournament playing a golf course he had not previously played was in the 2006 World Golf Championships-American Express Championship at The Grove Golf Course in Hertfordshire, England.
"I just don't quite have it, and some of the putts are a little bit tricky here and there," Woods said of being familiar with the greens. "But Joey did a great job of getting the numbers and getting a feel for the golf course, and we talked about it at length as we were playing the pro-am, and what the wind direction was going to be for today and (Friday) and had a really good game plan."
The plan, obviously, did not include his putting woes.

FlamesNation chats with Craig Conroy
Ryan Pike
July 20 2012 08:09AM
Just a year and a half after retiring from playing hockey, Craig Conroy remains just as visible as he was as a player. The former Flames captain retired in February 2011 and joined the management side of the business as assistant to then-interim general manager Jay Feaster. Now he's part of a hockey operations brain-trust that includes assistant general manager John Weisbrod and a handful of others who influence decision-making when it comes to key events such as the trade deadline and the NHL Draft.
A few weeks removed from the 2012 edition of the draft, Conroy reflected on the draft weekend experience and the development of some of Calgary's prospects with FlamesNation's Ryan Pike at Flames development camp.
Ryan Pike: Having been at the draft table for both years, how different was the Flames' draft approach this year from the year before?
Craig Conroy: I think it actually was fairly similar. The one difference was last year we thought there was probably nine guys that could play in the NHL within a couple years, and so this year we didn't have quite the same amount [projected that way]... When we got to our pick, like last year with Sven, so we went right after it, but the one thing Jay [Feaster] talked about what he wanted to do was get a draft pick back, a second rounder, so he might want to move down. Mark [Jankowski] was high on our list, but when we got to the point we thought Mark would probably, if we drop down we'd still be able to get him. And just like they kind of planned out – Tod Button, John [Weisbrod] and Jay – this is what they wanted to do, and it's weird how things just work out.
It worked out perfectly and they were able to get Patrick Sieloff with the second round pick. So it really was a big thing for us to get that second round pick back and also be able to move down and still be able to get the guy we really coveted after. There were probably six guys that we thought were gonna be gone early, and then there was a list of guys, and what our need was a big centerman with skill and vision, and Mark really fit that bill. It worked out good for us.
RP: There were a lot of "surprises" in the first round this year, but there was also a lot of variation in how a lot of the scouting services projected the top-end of the draft. Do people put too much stock in scouting lists when looking at the draft?
CC: And that's the one thing, even this year they were saying how much different the top ten were going to be. Nobody could really foresee the top ten. Usually they say 'hey, we kind of know the order, how it's going to go in the first five, and then from there it could be all over the map.' But that's the one thing about this year.
The one thing we're talking about is we're not going to look at Redline or Central Scouting and really make any decisions off that. We're going to put our list together the way we see it and what the criteria we have with hockey sense, character, skill and skating and all those things. We're just going to go with our list and we have a guy that works with us that kind of he goes by the numbers.
It comes from the scouts and they mix and match and they really go through it. It's amazing how much of a process it is to go through just one guy. I remember spending 45, 50 minutes on every guy. I'm thinking 'this is crazy,' but they want to make sure they get their list right and Jay says 'we're just going to work the list, we're not going to go off it.' As we tick everyone off when it comes to our pick, whoever's on the list, we take. We're not going to make changes at the table. John made a couple little, minor adjustments at the table this year, but overall we went right off the list again.
RP: Given that the Flames have been criticized in the past for not having a lot of prospects in the cupboard, do you get excited at development camp to see how the cupboards are being re-stocked in recent years?
CC: For sure, and you see the steps they make from year-to-year. And that's the one thing: you always want guys to take the next step, but you want them to do well. I mean, you're pulling for them. You draft them for a reason: you want them to play in the NHL one day. And yeah, like a guy like Johnny Gaudreau, a small guy that people are writing off when we draft him – like 'who is this guy, this small guy' – but he's got that special intangible. When you watch him, you can't take your eyes off him. He does so many good things; his vision, passing, and he's got a great shot for a small guy. It's deceiving how quick it is. He had two goals the other day in the scrimmage – one was on the penalty shot, the other was kind of down the wing, top-corner. It's great.
The one thing, everyone's with Mark Jankowski, if you really come out and watch Mark, he's a big guy with skill. He's raw talent, but he's got a lot of the things you're looking for in a player. He's a good passer, he makes people around him better, he's got the reach, the height, and eventually he's going to fill out. He's skinny right now, but so were a lot of 17-year-old kids. He's going to work and get better and he's got a great attitude, and that's all you can have.
RP: There was a lot of emphasis on character and hockey sense in this year's Flames draft class. How do you really evaluate that and is it important because you can't coach it into guys, like you can with skating or strength or conditioning?
CC: Character, you're always watching. For me, the team's really losing big-time or they're on the road playing a hard team, how does the guy [react] – does his game elevate or does he kind of 'oh, the game's over, we're down 5-1,' he looks like he shuts it down. And there's some guys that no matter if they're winning by five or losing by five, it doesn't matter. They play the same way, hard to the end of the whistle, they're driving the net, they're doing everything.
Those are the little character things that you can see, because sometimes it's hard to get a feel of actual character. When you're not with guys all the time, you don't know what they do off the ice, you can only see the little things in-game that makes you think 'this is what sets this guy apart' and how much does he enjoy playing. Is he yelling at the other guys on the bench? That is a big thing we're looking for. It has changed a little bit, but you still need to be able to skate, you still need to have skill and all the other stuff, but character's a big part of it and sometimes it's hard to find.

Best person to spreak of character conroy had great character on and of the ice...glad to still have u conroy now get back on the ice
July 20 2012, 09:17AM
Thanks Ryan. Really good stuff. Not surprising that Craig's interview is twice as long as anyone else of course...
Is Conroy still considered a prospect, or is he too old and it's time to part ways with him?
The whole Jankowski thing will be scrutinized for years. Not only does Calgary not take a guy like Teravainen, but a lot of people on here were very high on Girgensons. Interesting that Buffalo took him at 14 with what was Calgary's pick.
I've never seen a picture of Conroy with his mouth shut; always talking. Great interview.
Connie is a good guy, he's pretty upfront and honest about things.
Interesting tidbit: Sven Baertschi is only the 2nd player in NHL history named Sven.
Great interview. So hard not to like Conroy. Feaster forced his hand into retirement, but he's clearly excited and right on side. What a pro.
Interesting tidbit:
Iginla, Irving, and Ivanans are the only three NHLers a last name beginning in I. And they all played for the Flames organization at the same time.

Sherrington: Why Rangers might be better off staying with Leonys Martin, Craig Gentry than chasing pricey Michael Bourn
SportsDay columnist Kevin Sherrington answered reader questions during a live chat Wednesday. Here are some highlights:
Why don't we hear anything about the Rangers being interested in Michael Bourn? He is the best outfielder on the market and is a great leadoff hitter.
Kevin Sherrington: He's just 29, a terrific outfielder, speed on the bases, decent OBP. But he's also represented by Scott Boras, coming off his best season and has very little power (9 home runs this year) for his strikeout total (155). The Rangers might be better off going with a platoon of Gentry and Martin and getting similar results.
Do you think the Rangers might regret letting Scott Feldman go?
Kevin Sherrington: Fans hated him, but he was a very serviceable part. He pitched 123 innings, which was an incredible amount for a guy who was supposed to be a long reliever and occasional spot starter. When he was right, he was very good. Unfortunately, he was often trying to overcome injuries, which hurt him, and he was one of the slowest pitchers to the plate in MLB history, it seemed like. The team went to sleep around him, awakened only occasionally by guys running the bases like crazy. The Rangers wanted him back under a better contract, but he wanted to start, and I don't blame him. I think Daniels was right when he said he wouldn't be surprised if Scott had a good year with the Cubs.
Where do you think Mike Adams will go?
Kevin Sherrington: The Angels could use some bullpen help. He might be better served going back to the NL. He gave up too many home runs here.

By COREY BLUEMELStaff Writer
On July 17 at Ferron City Hall, a special city council meeting was held to discuss the feasibility study for the proposed Ferron special event center. This center would be built at the present fairgrounds site. The meeting took place with Michael Bischoff from Aspen Resource Consultants, to consider the next steps to be taken in the study.
Bischoff presented the latest update on the vision plan of the event center. The plans include an indoor arena, stock barns, playground, picnic area, multipurpose facility, amphitheater, race track, ATV course, exhibit areas, holding pens and an RV park. He distributed a packet of information to the councilmembers that contained each facet of the plan.
Mayor Kent Larsen appointed several representatives to review this information and formulate the cash flow figures required to bring this project to reality. The plan includes the number of events to be held each year, the kinds of events to be held and the revenue projections from these events.
Bischoff gave the councilmembers the "instruments" (the estimate forms) on which to compile the information and to aid in the evaluation of the project's feasibility. The group is required to assemble a five year projection plan with each of those five years broken down into all anticipated revenue and expense.
The figures with which the group will start are comparisons from five facilities of comparable size and structure in the state. There will be much needed discussion and thought required for this process. Every component of the event center will need to be considered for each season and what the long term goals are for the facility. Another aspect will be the impact on the city of Ferron and Emery County.
Bischoff made the council aware of many ways to implement this project in phases and making upgrades as it goes along. Taking into consideration the cost of construction, the type of construction and the amount of capital required to begin the project, the event center could constructed over a period of time to facilitate funding. One possibility, among the many he explained, would be to begin with graveled roads throughout and do the pavement work at a later date.
Bischoff assured the council that his company would work with them throughout the entire process, including the application process for grants and funding. His company is aware of many sources to investigate for the funding of such a project. He also stated that he will work with the council as they put together the papers and figures to complete the study.

Macanudo Gold
The name Macanudo Gold fits this cigar to the 'T'. The wrapper is a golden Connecticut shade leaf with a burl-like gradient and a pleasantly mild aroma. With a snip and a quick, easy light I was ready to go. First impression: smooth. Very smooth in fact, but very mellow. An extremely loose draw made it difficult to pick up any definitive flavors, but I did find one unique characteristic that seemed quite unusual. Ever add a ton of salt and pepper to your plain white rice to make it not so plain? Well, it seems like that's what was done with this cigar. There was a sweet saltiness to it, a flavor I find common in most candelas. Also, each puff ended with a slight pepperiness, almost like freshly cracked black pepper. These flavors were pleasant, but I wanted more, and so I puffed on into the night. Aside from the flavor, the loose draw also affected the production of smoke. Normally, I feel like I am sitting in a thick, fluffy smoke cloud, I love that. Instead, I felt like I was simply seeing my breath on a cold winter day. After breaking the midway point, I decided to check the washers. I returned to my cigar just shy of 10 minutes later, two loads of laundry are in and my cigar is amazingly still lit. To my delight, the existing sweetness mingled with a twist that I can only explain as citrusy. This didn't last long, but considering how straightforward and one-dimensional this Churchill has been since lighting, it was a welcome change, no matter how short. On the upside, the ash was light grey and held strong for a good 1.5 inches before I helped it off the cigar each time. Also, the burn was slow and even, and despite my furious 'puffing pace', the flavor did not turn bitter or harsh toward the end. In the end, I wanted to nub this cigar, but didn't see the point. The flavor showed no sign of building or changing, so I decided to put it down with about 2 inches to go and head inside.
That's about it. Despite the overly loose draw, Macanudo Gold is a good cigar. Consistent in flavor, slow burning, super mild and buttery smooth…one that would appeal to most. That's why Macanudo is the number one selling cigar in America. However, it doesn't meet my personal (critical) tastes and I don't see myself craving one in the immediate future. Gimme gusto…rich, robust layers of flavor complemented by a subtle buzz. Now we're talking.

A woman called into a Fargo, N.D. radio station recently to complain about the deer crossing signs. Apparently, she had been involved in three car accidents in the past year with deer, all coming near areas with deer crossing signs.
But, what the caller doesn't seem to understand, is that deer cannot read deer crossing signs. The hosts try to help her out on this fact, but it just seems to escape her.

CARSON CITY — "Robert Laxalt stared at the blank piece of paper in the Royal typewriter. He wrote a sentence, pulled the paper from the Royal and read it carefully. With both hands, he crumbled the paper in a ball and threw it in the wastebasket. The words weren't right. They weren't good enough."
That's how University of Nevada, Reno professor emeritus Warren Lerude begins his biography "Robert Laxalt: The Story of a Storyteller." It also is a good imitation of how Laxalt (1923-2001) wrote — not with a lot of puffy descriptive prose, but with easy-to-understand words, especially with active verbs.
Like Ernest Hemingway, Laxalt grew up as a newspaper reporter who learned after work in front of his typewriter to become a real writer. He worked for the old United Press and created his own news service in Northern Nevada in the early 1950s.
To supplement a meager income, Laxalt began writing longer freelance pieces and short stories for magazines.
Then in 1957, Harper & Row published his book "Sweet Promised Land," an account of the trip he and his sheepherder father, Dominique, took to the Basque country in France, which the senior Laxalt had left almost 60 years earlier.
The poignant tale describes how Dominique would discover he no longer was an immigrant who missed the Basque, but an American who loved the mountains outside Carson City. In turn, Robert discovered a love for his father that he previously did not really have.
The book remains a classic. It made Laxalt Nevada's Hemingway and led to a 50-year career in which he published 17 books, some of them semifictional accounts of his family, and he arguably became the greatest writer Nevada has produced.
Others might prefer Walter Van Tilburg Clark of "The Oxbow Incident" fame, but Laxalt's style was far more readable.
"People know Bob as a great writer, but they don't know where he came from," Lerude said. "He came out of journalism, and he never really left journalism. There was no biography about Bob, and in a weak moment I decided to do it.
It took Lerude 4½ years to write the biography. His research included looking through 33 boxes of material Laxalt left to the UNR library.
More than a biography, the book shows how Laxalt became a writer. Lerude, 75, critiques many news stories Laxalt wrote as a young reporter and then the dozens of magazine pieces, short stories and finally nonfiction books and novels he published the following decades.
Although a friend of Laxalt, Lerude does not hesitate to mention books and stories that were not as good as others.
Lerude's solid credentials lend credence to his criticism. He won the 1977 Pulitzer Prize for editorial writing when he was a Reno newspaper editor. He went on to a second career as a journalism professor at the Reynolds School of Journalism at UNR.
This summer, Lerude is finishing up his final UNR duties overseeing interns. His next step is retirement. Give him a few months, and he might try another book.
Forty years ago the Laxalts were Northern Nevada royalty. His brother Paul, who turned 91 on Aug. 2, had been Nevada's governor and was planning a 1974 bid for the U.S. Senate. He would serve 12 years in the Senate and even run briefly for president in 1988.
Other brothers in the family were lawyers; a sister was a nun. Robert Laxalt by then had been a spokesman for UNR and founded the university's book publishing operation, called University of Nevada Press.
Today, in a state where 80 percent of the population is from someplace else, the Laxalts largely are forgotten. More than a few visitors to this historic city have asked why a state office building near the Capitol is called the Laxalt Building, after Paul Laxalt.
Politics is ephemeral. But what never will be lost are the words of Robert Laxalt.
"Sweet Promised Land" became a Weekly Reader book for schoolchildren by the early 1960s.
Children across the country loved it then, and the new Kindle generation of readers cannot help but experience the same awe when they read those beginning words:
"My father was a sheepherder, and his home was the hills."
Lerude said the popularity of Robert Laxalt's book may have been why his brother won a seat in the Senate.
During the 1974 campaign, the family commissioned the publication of 30,000 reprints of "Sweet Promised Land." Robert Laxalt added a short section in which he introduced his brother to voters.
Paul Laxalt won the race over Harry Reid by 611 votes, a margin some political pundits attributed to the popularity of the book, according to Lerude.
"Paul was the most prominent Laxalt in his time, but times change," Lerude said. "The most enduring Laxalt is Bob."
Lerude only briefly mentions his 40-year friendship with Laxalt in the book. When he heard of his friend's death, he went skiing and made sure to cover over some of the lands where Dominique Laxalt had herded sheep 50 years earlier. Robert and Dominique could have been watching.
The book was published by the Center for Basque Studies at UNR. Copies are $24.95 and can be purchased through the center's website at http://basquebooks. myshopify.com/.
The book also soon will be available at larger bookstores and at amazon.com, along with his other works.

Meaningful Games in April
Jonathan Willis
April 09 2013 08:48AM
One of the items that the optimists watching the Edmonton Oilers have pointed to as a sign of progress is the fact that the team is playing meaningful games this late in the season. They were still in it at the deadline and they were still in it in April; these are big improvements over previous years.
Or are they?
It Isn't A Normal Season
The fact is, with the compressed schedule, being in the hunt in April of this year is roughly akin to being in the hunt in January if last year; at 40 games, the difference between the also-rans and the nearly-ins and the barely-ins is a lot smaller than it is after 80 games.
That becomes pretty clear when comparing the Oilers' record this season after 39 games to the Oilers' record last season after 39 games:
- 2013: 16-16-7, 39 points, minus-7 goal differential
- 2011-12: 16-20-3, 35 points, minus-4 goal differential
It's a four point improvement, but in terms of wins and losses the Oilers are actually in the exact same position as they were one season ago; the difference is entirely the result of four losses taking place after regulation rather than in 60 minutes. The Oilers slumped in the last half of 2011-12, while in 2013 there is no last half of the season to slump in. Ultimately, though, they're at a pretty comparable place to where they were a year ago.
The difference is that the 39th game a year ago was the start of January; this time it's the start of April.
The Shot Numbers
Another item to consider is goaltending. The single-biggest factor in the Oilers' late season slump in 2011-12 was Nikolai Khabibulin's implosion, just as the single-biggest factor in their early season dominance was Khabibulin's brilliance. He went 11-8-3 with a 0.932 save percentage before Christmas, then 1-12-4 with a 0.881 save percentage afterward. In other words: the team's early success and late failure was distorted first by Khabibulin's excellence and then his struggles.
This year, the goaltending's been solid throughout, giving the Oilers an advantage last year's team didn't have. If we remove goaltending from the equation, and just look at shots for and shots against, how does this year's group compare to last year's?
- 2013: 1055 shots for, 1281 against; Oilers take 45.2% of all shots
- 2011-12: 2186 shots for, 2518 shots against; Oilers take 46.5% of all shots
Basically, although individual players (hello, Taylor Hall) have taken significant strides, the team as a whole isn't doing any better at out-shooting the opposition. That's a problem, and suggests that the improvements the team has made are only skin deep. If not for Devan Dubnyk taking the starting job and running with it, there might be some uncomfortable questions being asked of the management group right now.

@2004Z06 I think consistency and talent level are inter-connected. When talented team's top players are inconsitent, their secondary players appeat to pik up the slack and the team as a whole appears more consistent. The Oilers just don't have enough talent yet imho.
JW What can we do to say thanks to Andy Sutton ? I feel he was a great team mate and wish we had him a few years ago. The man was dangerous. I feel for any athelete having to pack it in because of injury.
Not sure if you read this Andy, probably not. But in case, Thanks for being an Oiler and all the best to you and your family from here on in. Once an Oiler always an Oiler.
Anyone care to add ?
Good Luck Andy Sutton.

Meaningful games or not, I will still watch the games that are left. I will also still be expecting the lads to put in a full effort. I dont get to slack off at my job in spite of not getting a bonus.
April 09 2013, 07:39PM
Sometimes management should be judged not for what they have done.......but for what they should have done.
Our AHL team is littered with all of Tamby's failed experiments and next year you can add another three or four players. We win five games and he changes his whole outlook and strategy.........hang on players that should have been moved........and tells the masses he did not want to send the wrong message by trading away players.
This is wrong on so many levels, and shows a complete lack of vision and leadership. This team will never win a championship with incompetent leadership, if non-hockey people can see this, what do you think the players are thinking?
April 09 2013, 08:05PM
I dunno GV, Horcs 8 pts, against Smithsons 5, granted Shawn did miss a game or two with a hangnail or sumfim. Neck and neck really, one strong game from Jarred and they're tied.
Could the Oilers taking Smithson off of Dale Tallons hands be setting up a larger off season deal? Don't see why the need to even offer Smithson another deal, huh, eh, nudge nudge wink wink, especially if Edmonton is so married to that Horcoff albatross. Both do the same thing really. This certainly was no Sather/Willy Lindstrom type deadline deal. Perhaps it was in Tambellinis mind (being in a playoff spot at the time) though, I guess, no?
Hold your ear to a seashell and you will know what is going on in Tambellini's mind.
April 09 2013, 10:24PM
Thanks for the analysis JW. I was kind of wondering how much improvement we really made this season.
The mix needs to change. This is more than just fixing the bottom D pairing or the fourth line. If we want to improve our depth, we need to add guys who can bump guys like Ryan Smyth and Nick Schultz down in the lineup. Unfortunately, this play in meaningful games garbage will be the rallying cry for management to keep their jobs and continue to do nothing. I am not a huge Ralph Krueger fan but he is already the 4th coach who hasn't been able to win with Tambellini's squad.
Accountability needs to start at the top, not the bottom. It's getting awfully frustrating realizing how woefully incompetent this franchise is. Anybody who buys the hockeynews' draft preview every season could have put this team together.
April 09 2013, 11:04PM
1-8 down the stretch please. Blowing the Lames out by a touchdown will be fine for me. This team clearly needs more lottery type help sooner rather than later. If the kids aren't on/win it by themselves, the veterans are often nowhere to be found. A Vet of two out, and another rookie in please.
Hemsky,Gagner,Horcoff,Smyth and Whitney yada yada yada, all missing in action when needed most. Nothing but a bunch of prima donnas when it mattered most. This team isn't going anywhere till most, if not all of these guys are gone. Being the shot blocking gurus of the NHL is only a reflection of the puck always being in our end.
Solid article Jonathan, if any, only micro improvements have been made. The kids are doing more whilst the vets do even less.
Agreed, props.
Might I add throwing in butter soft Paajarvi, Jones, Petry, maybe some GM out there can bake a cake with with these guys.

SIUH Service Auxiliary Receives HANYS Award
Staten Island, NY - The Staten Island University Hospital Service Auxiliary has been recognized by the Healthcare Association of New York State (HANYS) with the 2011 Auxiliary Advocacy Recognition Award. This is the second year in a row that this award has been bestowed on members of the auxiliary. The honor is given to auxiliaries that have committed significant time and effort serving as an advocate for their facility and community.
The SIUH Service Auxiliary - the oldest continuous auxiliary in the United States - is a non-profit organization in support of the mission of Staten Island University Hospital. Founded in 1863, the Auxiliary has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars in recent years to assist the hospital in attaining its goals.
From an annual charity fashion show that involves hospital physicians and staff to monthly bake sales and raffles to partnerships with local businesses and organizations, the Auxiliary maintains a diverse fundraising program.
Members of the Auxiliary also work with local food pantries to collect food and help distribute hospital information at health fairs and outreach events that are vital to the community's health. Last year, the Auxiliary's advocacy efforts were highlighted on NY1 News on its NYer of the Week segment.

Kyuubi has always had healing properties, at least as pertaining to Naruto himself, Naruto on the other hand has always had Uzumaki/Senju Chakra pool and endurance, AND it was noted many times that he could uniquely withstand the Kyuubis toxic hatred poluted chakra.
I think that its a case of each enhancing the other.
It's too early to conclude that the HAchibi could not heal Gai, but it does seem that way, even though Hachibi is only a little bit less dumb than Killerbee, which may be why he never thought to heal Gai on his own, WELL......Kyuubi could have ordered Hachibi to heal him if hachibi could heal him. Makes you wonder.
I'll be willing to bet that the Kyuubi's chakra is unique amongst Bijuus, and not only for healing. I think that Yondaime's decision to make Naruto a Jinchuuriki (As a counter to Madara/Tobi) has more to it than him just merely granting Naruto Bijuu power. There must be something else.
I also get a feling that the Kyuubi was closer to the So6p than the other Bijuus, and the SO6p may have said something to Kyuubi, or granted him something that will play a part in the up coming battles.

Fought under the cover of elaborate deceptions and ruthless lies, the deadly intelligence operations of World War II produced victories and defeats that were often as important as any reached on the battlefield. A behind-the-scenes history of the war, this book offers an exciting picture of the whole range of clandestine activities, the various forms of intelligence, espionage and sabotage, subversion and counter-espionage--the entire secret war conducted apart from conventional warfare. The major exploits of the O.S.S., M.I.5, Abwehr, and the Deuxieme Bureau are described in colorful detail by an author considered one of the foremost civilian experts on intelligence during the war. Ladislas Farago's account of Allied and Axis spymasters at work offers compelling reading about real traitors and heroes in cloak-and-dagger-dom.
The late Ladislas Farago, a former chief of research and planning in the U.S. Navy's Special Warfare Branch, is the author of several books on espionage.

|In response to Re: dual flush toilets
: Seattle Public Utilities is offering rebates on toilets at the moment. Since I just bought a new house and have 2 toilets which, it seems to me, take way too long to fill and are not low-flow, this may be a good time to replace them. I read about dual flush toilets. I've only just started my search and have checked Home Depot, which does not carry any. Are they available in Seattle and are the Coroma worth the extra $200 each? Any other manuf.'s available? Thanks! Viki
I sell the Reflections 305 for $320 with seat.
It's a nice looking toilet that saves water.
Others in that price range you may consider, would be in the Toto line which are not dual flush, but do a good job with 1.6
Don't expect to find these at the home centers.

Dear Students:
Please let me take this opportunity to welcome you to Introduction to Sociology as well as to the Online Learning Program of Bucks County Community College.
As you may already be aware, the Online Learning Program is significantly different from traditional
college courses. Perhaps the most striking difference is that the course will lack traditional classroom instruction and regular face-to-face interaction with the professor. It will largely be up to you to set your own pace as you review and study the materials that will be assigned. The eLearning student, therefore, needs more self-discipline, more self-motivation and must focus more significantly on writing skills. The greatest benefit to the student is the flexibility of your time in meeting the requirements of the course, and fewer, if any, trips to campus! Your grade in the course will be determined by your submission of a field observation assignment, chapter quizzes, a midterm and a final examination, and your timely and thoughtful contributions to the on-line discussions.
I want to also welcome everyone to your first college course in Sociology. In a nutshell, sociology is the scientific study of society as a whole, as well the human behavior which collectively constitutes a society. It offers a perspective - a view of the world - that stresses that people's social experiences
underlie their behavior. We will be analyzing these behaviors from differing perspectives and focusing on the growing global context of social life.
Course Objectives:
Some of the topics the course will include are:
Textbook and Other Requirements:
The textbook we will be using this semester will be Essentials of Sociology: A Down to Earth Approach, 9th or 10th Edition, (Allyn & Bacon) by James M. Henslin. You will also be required to purchase access to WWW.MySocLab.com. We will be using this site as a supplement to our Canvas site. It is available for purchase for at-home use from the BCCC bookstore or online. You can purchase the book & MySocLab in a packaged set or separately. You may also choose to purchase ONLY access to MySocLab - as it contains an e-Version of our text. You can purchase this access code directly from the Publisher's website for about half the price of the hard copy textbook. If you are comfortable reading your text online, I suggest trying this money saving option. And lastly, you will need to have access to a personal computer to participate in the on-line discussion questions, take exams and to submit assignments.
Course Requirements:
Contact With the Professor:
Although the bulk of the course work is completed individually, regular and frequent contact with the
Professor is encouraged and expected. You should feel free to contact me at any time with questions you may have on any aspect of the course. My office is in Penn Hall, 275 Swamp Road, Newtown, PA. 18940. My office phone number is 215-504-8500, ext. 6327. If you leave me a voicemail, speak slowly and be sure to include your full name, course, telephone number and when I can reach you. My preference is email. Once the semester has begun, e-mail me on our Canvas site - simply go to the "Inbox" function and click on 'Compose.' Before the semester begins, you may email me at my college address: .
We will be utilizing several features of Canvas, but most frequently the "Modules," the "Discussion" tool,the "Quizzes" and "Assignments" link and the many 'content' and resources pages. To learn more about navigating this system, please check out "Canvas Basics" at https://bucks.instructure.com/courses/36545. Log into Canvas to review the Student Orientation Materials and set your Notification Preferences.
In conclusion, I want to extend to each of you my best wishes for an interesting and productive semester. I look forward to 'meeting' you and introducing you to a fascinating subject!

Over the river and through the woods
Asheville calls itself "The Land of Sky" for a very good reason – you can do everything under the sun.
Hiking, biking, rafting and picnicking are some of the possibilities. So are touring the Blue Ridge Parkway, kayaking the French Broad River and skiing and snowboarding some of the most thrilling runs on the East Coast.
Your stay at the Dry Ridge Inn, in the north part of Buncombe County, puts you close to some of the highest peaks east of the Rockies. You're also minutes away from the longest and most visited "park" in the National Park Service system, the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Known as "America's favorite drive," the parkway is full of scenic overlooks and historical displays. Cyclists love it for its easy climbs and pulse-raising descents. Motorcyclists love it for its unending miles of beautiful rides. Hikers love choosing among more than 100 trails, all of them within a gorgeous ride from the inn.
A 15-minute drive from Weaverville along pastoral Ox Creek Road puts you on the Mountains-to-the-Sea Trail, a scenic path above the Blue Ridge Parkway that gives you an intimate, "under-the-canopy" view of the Pisgah National Forest. Head north, and you'll soon be at Rattlesnake Lodge, which Asheville doctor Chase P. Ambler built in 1903 and 1904 as a summer home for his family. Head south, and in less than an hour, you're at Craven Gap, with its paved 6.5-mile road to Asheville.
The Parkway sweeps past views of the Asheville Watershed (that's lovely Bee Tree Reservoir below) to Mount Mitchell, elevation 6,684 feet. The highest point east of the Mississippi, its new observation deck has views that reach far into Tennessee and Virginia. The well-marked Deep Gap, Balsam and Mount Mitchell trails take hikers deep into alpine, Canadian-like forests. Bird watchers will spot a number of the 91 species identified within the 1,855-acre state park.
There's an excellent restaurant halfway between the Parkway and the top of the mountain. Or have lunch at the Craggy Gardens Picnic Area, located among some of the most beautiful rhododendron gardens on the Parkway. The Mountains-to-the-Sea Trail quickly takes you to the Craggy Gardens visitors area, which sits just beneath the easily accessed Craggy Knob, with its breathtaking views.
Other popular hiking areas along the Blue Ridge Parkway include Max Patch, Graveyard Fields, Looking Glass Rock and Devil's Courthouse. All of them are easy day trips from the inn.
Hikers and bicyclists both will enjoy the trails at Dupont State Forest. Local cyclists love the trails at Bent Creek Experimental Forest. There are lots of rides near Weaverville, including the trails at Alexander Park. It's easy to fall in among the many cyclists riding from Asheville to Marshall along the French Broad River, a level route that can be accessed within a 10-minute of the inn.
You can learn more about road rides at the Blue Ridge Bicycle Club website. For more about trail rides, go to The First-Timer's Guide to Mountain Biking in Western North Carolina.
Several rafting companies nearby are ready to provide some thrills on the French Broad River, the third-oldest river in the world. Among them are French Broad Rafting Expeditions, Mountain Adventure Guides, Huck Finn Rafting Adventures and Asheville Outdoor Center. If slow and easy is more your speed, most rafting companies rent inner tubes for escorted and unescorted trips down the river.
If you'd rather paddle on your own, the inn is located near popular put-in and take-out points along the river (an excellent guide to sections of the river is run by RiverLink, which works to preserve the French Broad and Swannanoa rivers).
Winter sports enthusiasts will be able to take advantage not only of the quieter season at the inn but also of an array of activities designed to build hearty appetites. Skiing, snowboarding and tubing are close by at Wolf Ridge Ski Resort in Madison County and at Cataloochee Ski Area in nearby Maggie Valley.
Rather go exploring? Hop in the car and head for some of the quaint villages that surround Weaverville.
Hot Springs offers not only a glimpse of how mountain towns used to be but also the opportunity to soak in thermally heated hot tubs at the Hot Springs Spa. Located in the "Land of Waterfalls," Brevard host several annual special events, including the White Squirrel Music Festival, the Squirrel Box Derby and the Old Time Music Competition. Bakersville, near beautiful Roan Mountain, is home to dozens of artists, many of whom show their work in town.

The Critical Thinker
My name is Kristan T. Harris. I have run for political office and have worked a political grass roots campaign for Ron Paul. I was nominated and elected to the GOP platform committee in 2012. I am a huge advocate for liberty and freedom.I am a libertarian at heart. I am also a news junkie and love a good mystery.
Common Core: Children Belong To Community, Not Parents
Kristan T. Harris | The Rundown Live
Last Friday, Massachusetts education secretary Paul Reville called Common Core critics a "tiny minority" and asserted that "the children belong to all of us". The government has come for your private property rights, your health care, your privacy and now the government wants your children. In an onslaught of government propaganda in our education system, media and Hollywood your children will be taught they belong to "the community" and not their parents.
This is called communitarianism. You give up your individual rights for what is "best for the community".
Communitarianism is a form of communism. History has shown us socialism and communism are political tools used to create a economic slave class. Bill Gates heavily lobby's both Republicans and Democrats in support of this program.
MSNBC's Melissa Harris-Perry in the video below propagandizes the following:
The ideology stems from a 1991 bill called UN Agenda 21. Signed by George H.W. Bush and put into action by Bill Clinton to further blur the lines between republicans and democrats. This is called globalization. See Bushes creepy speech at the bottom.
Examples of communitarianism:
* Fines for not mowing or maintaining your own property.
* Fines for hanging signs on your own property
* Smoking bans on privately owned buildings such as restaurants and bars. Owners should be able to decide if environment is smoke free or not.
* Gardening regulations
* Rain collecting regulations
* City curfews
* Regulations for burning leaves in your yard

Absolutely Gorgeous; absolutely HUGE!!
"I bought this purse last week, and it is very, very beautiful! After careful consideration, I chose this one thinking it would be small. When I got it, I was shocked at how big the purse was-this is my only complaint about the purse. The front pocket is pretty large, I use it for keys. Though the bag looks large, the inside is more narrow than you'd think, so its very useful.Aside from the large size, I adore this bag :)"

Unity of Command in Afghanistan: A Forsaken Principle of War
November 07, 2008
Authored by COL Ian Hope.
The author discusses the traditional importance of unity of command in American doctrine and practice from World War I until now, and how this principle has been forsaken in the evolution of military command for Afghanistan. He argues for a renewal of understanding of the importance of unity of command and recommends amending the Unified Command Plan to invest one "supreme commander" with responsibility for the current Operation ENDURING FREEDOM Joint Operations Area.

I am told these are not legal in the U.S.,but may be available through a Canadian mfg. This is turning out to be a "covert" project!

15 year old house.
In my kitchen ceiling (2 story) I have a lovely little nest of pipes and a lot of missing drywall right now. I have a straight line of PVC discharge line running past 2 bathrooms. Where the guest toilet T's into that line, I have a leaky fitting. It leaked a little drip for a LONG time considering the mold and mildew I've found and killed but suddenly let go a big splat while I was out of town.
I have studied continuously for 2 days after running PVC cleaner and a little more cement (yes, I know it's an adhesive only not a sealant but a boy can dream, can't he?)
I know that I could chop and replace...due to the way it's run it would be about 8 linear feet due to the toilet T and a 45 degree T and structural consideration (kitchen cabinets over an island in the way.) The leak is now limited but still lives. Is there ANYTHING that I can do to seal this joint without tearing out my kitchen ceiling the day before my first Christmas Eve family party in my first house?

Expert who resigned says situation can be salvaged
Retired petroleum engineer Grant Thayer says he acted hastily after Elbert County commissioners voted to reject an amendment to the land-use code and the accompanying memorandum of understanding that would have formalized the county's process for oil and gas exploration.
Thayer resigned from the county's all-volunteer editing committee — the group that helped prepared the controversial documents — shortly after the board's July 10 vote, citing "lack of leadership" on the matter, resulting in what some have labeled an ambush vote.
But Thayer cedes that with clarity of time he's been able to reflect.
"We can fix this," Thayer told commissioners on Aug. 14. "I think we can take a lot of the negatives here and turn them into a positive, and the positive I'd like to suggest is that the BOCC return the regulations as written to the editing committee, recognizing there are some points that need either clarification or need to be rewritten."
Thayer says the perhaps the biggest mistake made was the fact the documents in question have been referred to as oil and gas regulations.
"We don't have oil and gas regulations," he explained. "What we have is really an oil and gas surface mitigation program…and the goal was to focus on the fact there will impacts to the county, to our roads, infrastructure and population."
Thayer also explained many everyday words take on different meanings when applied to contracts in the oil and gas industry and that with another chance, and more guidance, the project could be salvaged.
"One of the things I've learned, looking back as an executive in the oil gas industry," he said, "is that language is important; and that a lot of everyday terms have different meaning to the industry — and if you don't understand the language, you're not going to be able to negotiate a very effective MOU."
Board of County Commissioners Chairman Robert Rowland, who, at times, has questioned the legality of the editing committee's work, reminded the packed room the county has a process for amending zoning regulations, and that it should be followed.
"I think by recognizing reasons for the negative vote," Thayer told Rowland, "and I think with some effort and willingness to accommodate each other's ideas we can resolve this very easily and come up with a document that is uniquely Elbert County and that will work."
Elbert County Resident Paul Crisan agrees that compromise is needed.
"Not only has this become a confusing issue in the county, it has also become a very divisive issue," he said.
Lack of trust between the county and its residents, said Crisan, has contributed to the impasse.
