Celeus castaneus
Chestnut-colored Woodpecker
- Order: Piciformes
- Family: Picidae
- Monotypic
Finca Chavez, Sarapiqui, Costa Rica; 13 April 2008 © Alex Vargas
The Chestnut-colored Woodpecker is one of the fanciest of the woodpeckers in Central America. It is a member of the genus Celeus, which is composed of numerous "chestnut" colored woodpeckers, all of which also have a characteristic "hammer-head" crest. The Chestnut-colored occurs farther north than any of its congeners, ranging from southern Mexico south to extreme northwestern Panama. Overall the bird is bright chestnut-brown. The crest is a paler light rufous-brown, the underparts and back have extensive black chevron-shaped scaling, it has a red "mustache" stripe, and the bill is light yellow. It overlaps in Honduras, Costa Rica, and Panama with the rather similar Cinnamon Woodpecker (Celeus loricatus), but this species has a red throat and has much bolder black markings on yellowish underparts. Chestnut-colored Woodpecker occurs mainly in lowland rainforest and forest edge along the Caribbean slope. It often forages relatively low in the midstory, and sometimes favors Heliconia thickets and secondary forest. In contrast, the similar Cinnamon Woodpecker is typically found in the canopy of tall forest. The most vocalization is a "peew-ekk-ekk". Like many other species in the genus Celeus, Chestnut-colored Woodpecker sometimes forages on termites and ants, and also on Cecropia fruit.

By Lena Mitchell/NEMS Daily Journal
IUKA – The man who led the petition drive to bring an alcohol election in Tishomingo County faces a July 2 hearing on charges of telephone harassment.
A warrant was served on Charles "Tubby" Aldridge of Iuka on May 31, and he turned himself in after Pastor Tony Curtis of Fifth Street Baptist Church filed the affidavit in Justice Court.
Aldridge posted a $300 cash bond and the case is set for 9 a.m. July 2. If Aldridge is found guilty, the maximum fine is $750.
Aldridge said he made many calls to Curtis' homes but never received a call back. He said he wanted to discuss public statements leading up to the alcohol referendum, which passed, that Aldridge said were false.
Curtis declined to discuss the complaint, saying only that his entire focus throughout the campaign was on keeping Tishomingo a dry county, with nothing personal involved.
Curtis emphasized again that the Citizens Coalition for a Dry County remains intact and is focused on what it can now that the election results are final.
"We are studying the situation – Mississippi law and county law – and have some things in the works," Curtis said. "We expect to have some announcements in the near future, things we can legally do. On that front we are optimistic."

Let's face it: Greg Heffley will never change his wimpy ways. Somebody just needs to explain this to Greg's father.

The hazards of growing up before you're ready are uniquely revealed through words and drawings as Greg records them in his diary.
In book one of this debut series, Greg is happy to have Rowley, his sidekick, along for the ride. But when Rowley's star starts to rise, Greg tries to use his best friend's newfound popularity to his own advantage, kicking off a chain of events that will test their friendship in hilarious fashion.

The inner workings of organizational networks to be topic at Binghamton University Forum
BINGHAMTON, NY – Pamela Mischen, director of the Center for Applied Community Research and Development at Binghamton University, will discuss "The Composition and Dynamics of Networks: Creating a Collaborative Approach That Works" at the University Forum luncheon, Wednesday, January 19. Lunch will begin at 11:30 a.m. and the program will start at noon, in the Old Union Hall of the University Union.
Pamela Mischen's research into public policy uses complexity theory to shed light on why programs succeed or fail. Mischen will discuss why policies fail or succeed and how people can learn to form networks within an organization, or among groups that collaborate. Mischen's research in complex theory examines complex systems, which are the networks of interconnected agents that depend on one another. This work helps her advise local organizations in her role as director of Binghamton University's Center for Applied Community Research and Development.
The Center for Applied Community Research and Development connects the University with individuals and organizations seeking community-based research partnerships. The center matches faculty with organizations and sees to it that both parties benefit.
Mischen has been director of the Center for Applied Community Research and Development since 2007, assistant professor in the Department of Public Administration at Binghamton University since 2003 and promoted to associate professor in 2009. In 1990, she received her BS in international agriculture and rural development from Cornell University. In 1994, she received her MS from Arizona State University, School of Agribusiness, and in 2002, her PhD from Arizona State University, School of Public Affairs.

Suwannee Valley Rotary's speaker last week spoke of the importance of working forests to the area, the state, the economy, the environment and the future.
Lynetta Griner of Usher Land and Timber and also a Rotarian, gave a presentation titled "Working Forests Work."
The September unemployment rate for the CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion area dropped by 0.5 percentage point over the month to 6.3 percent, and is down 1.0 percent from the same time last year.
Out of an expanded labor force of 196,782, there were 12,472 unemployed, a decrease of 769 since August and 2,190 fewer than September 2014. Moreover, the number of employed increased over the month by 1,945 to 184,481.
The president of the Wild Hog Canoe Race spoke from the heart to the Suwannee Valley Rotary Club.
"It's a blessing to share a burden I have on my heart with you today," Keith Maynard said to the group last Thursday.
He told a little about the history of the Wild Hog Canoe Race, how it came to support the Levy Association for Retarded Citizens (LARC) and then began to flourish. In 1986, the race had the most boats in its history participate with a total of 124.
Tuesday was a big night for the performing arts in Chiefland.
A tradition dating back to 1984 continued as the Greater Chiefland Area Chamber of Commerce held its 32nd annual Industry Appreciation Banquet recognizing the 2015 Business of the Year and the 2015 Organization of the Year.
The theme was Opening Night and the Community Room at Haven Hospice was decked out in vintage Hollywood decor.
Ryan Watson, chamber vice president called the evening, "a celebration of local accomplishment."
Haven Hospice's new Community Center will be the setting for the 32nd Annual Industry Appreciation Dinner to honor the 2014 Business of the Year and Organization of the Year on Tuesday, Sept. 22.
The Gathering Table is catering the event for the Greater Chiefland Area Chamber of Commerce.
The theme is Hollywood with classic movies playing on the big screens, red carpets and some fun games and activities as well as the wonderful fellowship amongst the business community.
Chiefland Rotary had a special guest last week and received recognition of a special honor.
Leon Hirsch, Rotary district governor from Pensacola presented members of the Chiefland club who had achieved Paul Harris Fellow recognition with a pin and certificate. The club is now a full Paul Harris Fellow Club, an honor named after the club's founder.
"It's a very, very special day for Chiefland Rotary," Hirsch said, adding they are one of maybe two in the whole district to have achieved this status.
Job seekers are invited to attend the second annual Tri-County Job Fair on Wednesday, Aug. 26 at the Haven Hospice Community Center in Chiefland. There is no charge to participate.
The job fair is hosted by CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion in collaboration with CareerSource Florida Crown. It is open to all job seekers throughout both workforce areas and features nearly 20 employers with openings in Levy, Dixie and Gilchrist counties.
The Fanning Springs Chamber of Commerce is up and running with the voting in of new officers and board members.
The meeting took place last Thursday, with the next one to be held on Aug. 6 at 5:30 at the Lighthouse Restaurant in Fanning Springs. They will be voting on bylaws at this meeting.
The health care facility whose motto is "health care for a woman by a woman" is expanding to offer services to men and children as well. Ground was broken on the new facility and staff hopes it will open in about four months.
A Woman's Place, owned by Nurse Practitioner Lauren Williams, will still do strictly woman's care: wellness, sick visits, OB care, ultrasounds and infertility, but the new facility that's being constructed in the back will offer care for the whole family.
A whole new chamber of commerce is opening up in Fanning Springs.
While the previous Fanning Springs Chamber of Commerce dissolved some years back, a new group has been started and will hold its first official meeting July 16 at the Lighthouse Restaurant in Fanning. They've had one organizational meeting already, but the next one will involve voting in the board of directors and new officers.
"We want to bring that back," Fanning Springs Mayor Trip Lancaster said. "We want to highlight the businesses we do have in Fanning."

|Warmwater flyfishing Bass, pike and even muskies in your backyard
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|John Desjardins
This advice is a little late but... When buying flies I've learned the hard way to always buy 3 of a pattern. My thinking is 1 fly gets sacrificed to a snag, the second catches fish, and the third is to tie from or to find an identical replacement for the future.
On the bright side you know where a larger fish is, what he bit on, and that you can trick him into biting. May your next trip end up with the fish at hand.
Dang it !
I was flyfishing for pan fish last night on a lake that was as calm as can be with a lot of top water action. Well I was using my only black rubber spider with the white legs. I was catching fish left and right. I made a good cast way out and as I made the first twitch the surface broke and something gulped up the little booger fly. As I set the hook, I felt good weight on the end and I was just about to say "Big fish" when all of a sudden,.......SNAP ! That was my only black spider

Shares of wireless chip maker Avago (AVGO) are up $4.76, or 10.4%, at $50.41, in early trading after the company this morning said it would acquire storage and networking chip maker LSI (LSI) for $6.6 billion in cash, or $11.15 per share, a 41% premium to the stock's closing price of $7.91 on Friday.
LSI shares are up $3.05, or 39%, at $10.96
Avago CEO Hock Tan remarked that the deal "will increase the Company's scale and diversify our revenue and customer base," by bringing Avago into the enterprise storage market and expanding the company's capabilities for wired networking.
Avago said the deal will be "significantly and immediately accretive to Avago's non-GAAP free cash flow and earnings per share," and that the combined companies will achieve $200 million in annual savings by the end of 2015."
LSI has traditionally competed with Marvell Technology Group (MRVL) in the drive controller chip market. Marvell shares this morning are up 49 cents, or 3.7%, at $13.64.
Avago is getting a $4.6 billion term loan to fund the deal, and will get a $1 billion investment from Silver Lake Partners, the private equity shop that already had an investment in Avago back in 2005, before Avago's IPO. Avago plans to also use $1 billion of cash from the combined companies to fund the deal.

Fight to Make Documents Public Continues
In December, 2014, EFF asked a court to allow it to intervene in a patent case so that we could formally request that certain documents in the court record be unsealed and made available to the public. Yesterday, EFF's motion to intervene was granted. Our motion to unseal is now pending.
Court's Decision on Recording Police Erodes First Amendment Rights and Transparency While Inviting Violence
A federal district court in Pennsylvania recently issued a terrible joint decision in Fields v. City of Philadelphia and Geraci v. City of Philadelphia, holding for the first time that "observing and recording" police activities is not protected by the First Amendment unless an observer visibly challenges police conduct in that moment. The right to record police activities, under both the First and Fourth Amendments, is an increasingly vital digital rights issue. If allowed to stand, Fields would not only hamstring efforts to improve police accountability, but—given disturbing patterns across the U.S.—could also lead to unnecessary violence.
EFF Moves To Unseal Important Rulings Regarding Repeat Litigant Blue Spike
The public has a First Amendment right to access court records, and that right is generally only curtailed when there is "good cause" to do so. Unfortunately, when it comes to patent cases, courts routinely allow [PDF] parties to file entire documents under seal, without any public-redacted version being made available.
The government recently declassified a secret letter, written in 2002 laying out the executive branch's initial legal justifications for the vast expansion of electronic surveillance after September 11, 2001. Like many others, it was written by former DOJ Office of Legal Counsel attorney John Yoo, and it was directed to the then-presiding judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly.
The letter wasn't a filing with the FISC: instead, in Yoo's view, it was more of a "heads up"—in the words of the letter, a gesture of goodwill in the interest of "comity" between co-equal branches of government.
The heads up he was giving? The fact that, for over a year prior to this letter, the executive branch had been flagrantly violating federal surveillance laws.
The Senate's passage Tuesday of a bill to amend the Freedom of Information Act is a good step toward improving government transparency. Congress, however, can and should do more to fix the 50-year-old federal sunshine law.
Coinciding with Sunshine Week, an annual celebration by journalists and transparency advocates seeking greater government openness, the Senate unanimously passed an amended version of The FOIA Improvement Act of 2015 (S. 337), which was sponsored by Senators Patrick Leahy (D-VT.) and John Cornyn (R-TX.).
EFF supports the Senate bill, particularly because it does not enable greater secrecy for national security agencies, unlike a House bill passed in January. However, the Senate bill does not address several of FOIA's fundamental problems.

As far as the courses go Mike I would agree. A few of the Euro's play as much of their schedules here as they do on the European tour. However, where ever it is played that team has the "home turf" advantage based if nothing else on the fans and the noise.

text: Attention fellow Sith Lords! The Sith council of Indy is a small and relatively new group of collectors who get together every other Monday night in beautiful downtown Indianapolis. So far we have met three times (the last being this past Monday night) and consist of about six members. Our goal is to spread the word that the force is very strong here in central Indiana and to set the stage for next year when all the world comes to visit here. We are working on some VERY EXCITING projects for next May so stay tuned for more updated. If anyone within driving distance of Indy wishes to join our group of collectors, you are more than welcome to come and be a part of our next meeting on August 27th at 6 PM. Directions are available in the Just Found forum for Indy in the old forums (you can still read them for now).

There are rules in place for a reason. So when they all basically have a secret meeting under those conditions it creates an illusion of inapropriate behavior. Even if there wasnt. So my question is why? I mean, I use to be involve in politics, and when people wanted to meet with me like that it usually meant they wanted me to do something covert or they wanted something from me they didn't want anyone to know about. At any rate I really thing that this should be brought up in the councel meeting.I am curious what is going on.

Yes, that IS suspicious - - four people having lunch at EXACTLY the same time (and they didn't even bother to tell anyone beforehand - tisk! tisk!).

If they were truly trying to conduct a secret meeting do you honestly think they would do it someplace as public as JW Snacks? Honestly!! They took a friend/colleague to lunch! I would think we as a community would have better things to worry about then sandwich sharing at a PUBLIC restaurant.

getagrip said it. those who are so suspicious of everyone elses motives are that way because they know what they themselves would be doing. Craig Daily Press sure likes to point fingers on a personal basis, not exactly unbiased media imo

Ok here it is. If someone is running for public election they must be above reproach. That means they must present themselves someone who cannot be influenced by others. They should have good character and the courage to stand for what they believe in. The rules are in place to keep other officers already in office from trying to "influence" their own beliefs onto the person elect. So maybe it was a birthday dinner or a night of drinking and football. But when that person decided to run they also agreed to certail certain things until the election is over. Thats all! I do hope they are friends, great friends, then maybe we can finally get things done without all the in-fighting that always bungles up our political process.

Hard for people to attend an open house between 9 - 11am, when the majority of the community is working -- to bad they didn't do it during the evening so more could attend. Or perhaps they planned it that way so they don't have to answer to their community's questions and concerns. Oh well, just another day in Moffat County ----

oh yea! I saw the notice at the courthouse today as well. Funny i didnt even know about before then. HMMM. I think its a good idea to have the open house events at a time when people can actually come.

Working on my website, learning php/mysql/xml/xlst seems like some very neat stuff. Actually met someone at my work (a local grocery store) who knows what "linux" is, which is a rare find around here.
Recently installed gentoo on my main desktop system (Athlon XP 1600, ATI Radeon 8500, 512 DDR PC2100, 60gb 7200 maxtor and sblive!) and I like it ALOT. I was previously running debian, but gentoo has tons of up to the minute software, and compiling it at -O3 is a good advantage. Still running debian on my laptop (PII 366, 192 ram, 20 gig harddrive, 13.3 inch screen with several bad pixels) only because I didn't have the heart to sit through the gentoo bootstrap process on a 366 (It took crazy long on my desktop, couldnt imagine a processor over 4x slower).
If anyone out there knows how to get 3d acceleration (or get X to load with the glx module loaded) with a 8500 radeon please let me know. This thing is so much slower than my geforce 2 under linux, I would definitely not recommend buying any ATI products until they properly support their cards under linux.

Spokane City Council President sends illegal e-mail from city account
SPOKANE, Wash. - Spokane City Council President Ben Stuckart is in hot water for sending out an email from his work account, detailing his stances on the upcoming Special Election.
The email was sent out just before noon on Sunday. While Stuckart is allowed to publically voice his opinions on the election, he isn't able to send out an email to voters about his views through his City of Spokane email address.
"I definitely made a mistake," Stuckart said.Spokane City Council President sends illegal e-mail from city account
The subject line of the email read, "Mark That Ballot! 1-2-3 YES-NO-YES." Stuckart said he thought a volunteer sent the email out through his personal account. "We use a newsletter service and it just reverted back to my city email address," he said.
On Monday morning Stuckart sent out an apology email to the 1,200 people on his list serve. He also sent an email to the council and city staff, owning up to the error and taking full responsibility for the issue.
"I was more upset last night when I saw it come through. I'm going how can you do this from your city email address and it was a mistake but he apologized and I take him for his words," Councilman Steve Salvatori said.
Councilwoman Amber Waldref also listed her stances on the upcoming ballot in the fifth paragraph of her monthly e-newsletter. Waldref says she sent it from her home computer but it accidently defaulted to her city email address.

Despite living many thousands of years ago, our ancestors shared with us the same emotions with which we are familiar (love and grief, for example), but they also shared with us a trait with which we may be less familiar: the ability to enter trance to access healing, both physical and mental, of ourselves and others both living and dead. Mike Williams, author of Follow the Shaman's Call, explains how to—and why we should—tap into the shamanistic skills passed down by our ancestors.

From the steppes of the Himalaya to the jungles of Guatemala, shamanism is a ritual belief system that has been practiced for over 27,000 years. By understanding Shamanism's inherent and integral connection to the four elements--fire, earth, water, and air--we can gain a unique understanding of this enigmatic spiritual tradition. Omar Rosales, author of Elemental Shaman, describes how the shamanic journey truly begins with the four elements.

Libya: Urgently needed water trickles into Tripoli
The World Food Programme (WFP) and the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) have partnered to deliver 500,000 litres of bottled water to Libya's capital Tripoli and surrounding areas where a lack of potable water has affected some four million people.
"At this time, hundreds of thousands of people in Tripoli do not have access to one of the most basic needs for survival – water. We must all do what we can to address this urgent need," Zlatan Milisic, WFP's Representative and Country Director in Libya said in a statement.
UNICEF sourced the water and WFP, as the lead logistics agency in the UN humanitarian system, provided transportation support. "WFP Logistics will continue to support lifesaving operations of all humanitarian actors in Libya," Milisic said.
Tripoli has been experiencing water shortages since 22 August when fighting and lack of fuel shut down the city water supply system. The National Transitional Council was quick to request support from the international community to provide bulk drinking water as a stop-gap measure until the water system is fully restored.
According to UNICEF Libya Head of Office Christian Balslev-Olesen "this critical operation has been possible because of close cooperation between UNICEF and WFP." Balslev-Olesen's organization is in the process of procuring over 11 million litres of water for people in Tripoli and surrounding areas.
In a statement last week, Humanitarian Coordinator for Libya Panos Moumtzis said: "I am very concerned … the situation is being dealt with urgently to avoid a potential health crisis."
Moumtzis led a UN inter-agency mission that arrived in Tripoli on 2 September to re-establish a presence and lay the ground work for critical humanitarian assistance, particularly in areas where fighting had occurred. Besides the water shortages, the mission was there to look into the protection of civilians and take stock of the food situation.
"The humanitarian situation remains fragile," Moumtzis said. "It is critical to ensure an immediate and effective UN presence on the ground to help identify and assist vulnerable people who have been particularly affected by the conflict and the disruption of services," he added.
The team consisted of representatives UNICEF, WFP, the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

22 Eastern football players named All-Conference
Cheney, WA - Returning to his 2010 form after a pair of injuries sidelined him a year ago, junior wide receiver Brandon Kaufman headlines a group of 22 Eastern Washington University football players who have been selected to the All-Big Sky Conference team as selected by the league's head coaches.
Kaufman, Eastern's nominee as the league's Big Sky Offensive Player of the Year, was a unanimous choice on the first team. He was an injury redshirt in the 2011 season following a spectacular 2010 season when he earned All-America and first team All-Big Sky honors in helping lead EWU to the NCAA Division I Championship.
Kaufman was joined on the first team by junior cornerback T.J. Lee, a repeat first team selection from 2011. The others on the first team this season were senior kicker Jimmy Pavel, inside linebacker Ronnie Hamlin and senior offensive tackle Will Post, who earned honorable mention in 2011.
Second team selections included sixth-year outside linebacker Zach Johnson, who was a second team choice in 2010 and honorable mention as a freshman in 2008. Junior offensive guard Steven Forgette, an honorable mention selection a year ago, also earned second team honors this season, as well as senior defensive end Jerry Ceja and safety Allen Brown.
Earning honorable mention on offense were junior running back Demitrius Bronson, junior center Ashton Miller and senior wide receivers Nicholas Edwards and Greg Herd. Edwards was a first team choice last season, and Herd earned second-team All-BSC honors in 2011.
Seven players on defense earned honorable mention, including senior defensive end Paul Ena, who was a repeat selection from a year ago. Also on the squad were senior inside linebacker Tyler Washburn, senior outside linebacker Grant Williams, junior defensive tackle Andru Pulu, junior cornerback Ronald Baines, sophomore defensive tackle Dylan Zylstra and freshman redshirt safety Jordan Tonani.
Also selected to the honorable mention list was senior special teams standout Chase King and freshman redshirt return specialist Shaquille Hill.
"A lot of our players were recognized, which is exciting and deserving because I know how much hard work they put in," said Eastern head coach Beau Baldwin. "I know how many great players there are in this conference, so to be recognized at any level says a lot about the success they had on the field. And adding four more teams to the league makes it that much bigger of an award. It's an honor to be nominated, let alone win first team honors like five of our players received."
Kaufman enters the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Playoffs with 65 catches for 1,270 yards (19.5 per catch) and 10 touchdowns thus far, including career highs of 10 catches for 192 yards versus Southern Utah on Oct. 27. The 2010 All-American and first team All-BSC selection leads the Big Sky and ranks sixth in FCS in receiving yards per game (115.5), and his 10 TD receptions are ninth in FCS.
He is coming off a nine-catch, 161-yard performance against Portland State on Nov. 17 in which he had two sensational, highlight-reel catches after tipped balls. Kaufman has gone over the 100-yard mark eight times this season and 16 times in his career. Because of hand and knee injuries requiring surgery, Kaufman received an injury redshirt in the 2011 season after playing the first four games of the year.
Kaufman, who is from Denver, Colo., and is a 2009 graduate of Heritage HS, now has 193 career catches (fifth in school history) for 3,151 yards (third) and 27 touchdowns (fourth).
"Brandon has shown up in every game," said Baldwin. "For a receiver to do that, it's not easy. Game after game after game he was so productive and made a lot of huge plays. He's had a great year and it's been fun to see him come back after being out most of last year."
Lee has piled up some impressive statistics this season, ranking second on the team with 72 tackles. He also has a team-leading nine passes broken up, 2 1/2 sacks, seven total tackles for loss, an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. In his most recent outing versus Portland State on Nov. 17, he had eight tackles (one for loss) and broke-up three passes. He had nine tackles and a sack versus Southern Utah on Oct. 27, and eight tackles, a pass broken up and a forced fumble on a sack that he also recovered versus Weber State on Sept. 22. One game earlier against Washington State, he had six tackles and an interception, as the Eagle defense pitched a shutout in the second half and kept the Eagles in the game. Lee now has 131 tackles, three interceptions, 12 passes broken up and 2 1/2 sacks in his 31-game career (17 starts).
Hamlin has 107 tackles this season to rank 18th in school history, and his average of 9.73 per game ranks 28th in FCS and third in the Big Sky. He has had four performances of at least 11 tackles, including 15 in Eastern's 27-24 win at Big Sky co-champion Montana State on Oct. 13. He also had a key interception in that game to earn Root Sports Defensive Player of the Week as selected by the Big Sky and national FCS recognition as one of four College Sporting News National All Stars. Hamlin was also honored by the Big Sky as player of the week after finishing with eight tackles and a pass broken up in a season-opening 20-3 victory over Idaho. A 19-game starter for the Eagles, Hamlin has 192 tackles already in his 22-game EWU career.
Post has started every game at right offensive tackle in 2012, with a total of 33 career starts in 42 games played. He has allowed just one sack this season (opponents have a total of 24) and consistently grades out in the high 80's and low 90's according to offensive line coach Aaron Best. Eastern ranks second in the league and 10th in the FCS in passing offense (298.2 per game). The Eagles had a season-best 542 total yards versus Cal Poly and are now fourth in the Big Sky and 20th in FCS in total offense (434.2). Eastern is also 22nd in passing efficiency (142.5) and 26th in scoring offense (31.82).
Pavel made a 45-yard field goal against UC Davis on Nov. 10 to equal EWU's single season record of 16 set last year by Mike Jarrett. An impressive 16-of-17 on the season, Pavel ranks fourth in FCS with an average of 1.45 field goals per game. His .941 percentage is the best in FCS among kickers with at least 11 attempts this season. Pavel has also assumed part of EWU's punting duties the last three games, and currently has a 42.4 average on 12 punts with three downed inside the opponent 20-yard line.
Johnson had a pair of interceptions in the fourth quarter to help preserve Eastern's come-from-behind 41-34 victory over Portland State on Nov. 17. He also had three tackles in the game, which clinched a share of the Big Sky title for the Eagles. He has now started every game he has played in his Eastern career – 36 – and has 34 tackles in six games played this year. He has missed much of this season with a hamstring injury, but returned against Cal Poly on Nov. 3 from a five-game absence to finish with seven tackles, a pass broken up and a key third down tackle in the third quarter with the Mustangs at the EWU 1-yard line. Johnson, who has missed 24 total games in his career because of injuries, now has 294 tackles (eighth in school history), five interceptions, 13 passes broken up and 6 1/2 sacks as an Eagle. He is just 19 tackles from moving into seventh all-time at Eastern, and is 47 away from the total of 341 by his twin brother Matt Johnson, who now plays for the Dallas Cowboys.
Ceja is 11th in FCS and is third in the league with an average of 0.82 sacks per game (total of nine). He has 34 total tackles this season with 11 for loss, and also has four quarterback hurries, two passes broken up and a pair of forced fumbles to help him equal the school record with six in his career. He is ninth all-time in career sacks with 20 1/2, and is only a half-sack from moving into eighth and 1 1/2 from seventh.
Brown is fourth on the team with 69 tackles this season, and is also second on the team with seven passes broken up to go along with a pair of forced fumbles. He has started 23 of the 26 games he has played in his career, with totals of 159 tackles, two interceptions and 12 passes broken up.
Among the honorable mention selections, Bronson has rushed for 380 yards and eight touchdowns on the year. Herd is second on the team with 53 catches for 739 yards and six touchdowns, and Edwards has 30 grabs for 376 yards and three scores. Edwards is now fifth all-time in Eastern history in receiving yards with 2,574, and is seventh in points scored with 196. His 208 career catches ranks fourth in school history (No. 3 has 213) and his 32 TD receptions are second (the record is 46). Herd has 152 career grabs to rank 10th all-time at EWU, and is just five receptions from ninth. His catches have been good for 2,135 yards to rank 13th in school history, and he also has 16 touchdowns (unranked).
On defense, Williams is third on the team with 70 tackles, and Washburn is fifth with 62. Washburn is now in the top 20 in career tackles in Eastern history, currently ranking 14th with 241. Tonani, who replaced Jeff Minnerly when the two-time honorable mention senior safety suffered a broken collarbone, is sixth on the team with 60 tackles, and also has a team-leading three interceptions with five passes broken up.
Baines is seventh on the team with 48 tackles, and also has a sack, interception and pass broken up. Ena has 36 tackles with 2 1/2 sacks this season, and recovered a fumble that tied the school's career record of eight. Zylstra has 25 tackles, plus had a blocked punt that was recovered for a score in EWU's win at Montana State. Pulu has 20 tackles for the season, with a sack and three quarterback hurries.
King, a backup linebacker, has nine tackles for the season with 1 1/2 sacks and a forced fumble. Hill, who had a 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against North Dakota on Sept. 6, ranks 28th in FCS with an average of 24.7 yards per kickoff return.

The Vice President of the United States joined us for a good period of the meeting in order to share thoughts with this delegation, and I think we've had a very positive, very constructive discussion in the course of the afternoon with positive results.
During the course of those discussions, on behalf of the President of the United States, I underscored the Arab League's very important role that it is playing and has determined to play in bringing about a peace to the Middle East and specifically by reaffirming the Arab Peace Initiative here this afternoon with a view to ending the conflict. On behalf of the President, I reaffirmed, as did the Vice President, the U.S. commitment to pursue an end to the conflict based on the vision that President Obama outlined in May of 2011: two states living side by side in peace and security brought about through direct negotiations between the parties.
The U.S. and Arab League delegation here this afternoon agreed that peace between Israelis and Palestinians would advance security, prosperity, and stability in the Middle East. And that is a common interest for the region and the whole world. The U.S. and Arab League delegations this afternoon also agreed about the importance of this particular dialogue, and so we agreed to continue consultations on a regular basis and to meet as a group as needed in order to try to advance the efforts towards peace and an end to the conflict.
Mr. Prime Minister.
PRIME MINISTER HAMAD: Thank you, Mr. Secretary. First of all, in my behalf and the Arab delegation and the Secretary General, we thank you very much for this meeting and we thank the Vice President for giving us your valued and his valued time. I think it was a very productive and good meeting to start with, and I would like to say that the Arab League delegation understands that peace between the Palestinian and the Israeli, is starting – it's a strategic choice for the Arab state, referring to the Arab Initiative, Peace Initiative – as sound peace for reaching a joint justice and peace between the Palestinian and the Israeli, and stability in the Middle East.
The Arab League delegation affirmed that agreement should be based on the two-state solution on the basis of the 4th of June 1967 line, with the possible of comparable and mutual agreed minor swap of the land. The Arab League delegation expresses its thanks and for the President Obama and for yourself, Mr. Secretary, for your efforts and your commitment for the peace, and also endorses President Mahmoud Abbas' effort for the peace.
The delegation expresses support for efforts for the economic help and aid between the Palestinian, and from the – for the Palestinian – and we all think that we should work together to find a sound economical package to help the Palestinian state. Thank you very much.
SECRETARY KERRY: Thank you very much, Mr. Prime Minister. So on that note, folks, we want these comments about the Arab Peace Initiative and their commitment, their reaffirmation to it, as well as their commitment to the Palestinian Authority and economic initiatives to stand on their own. And I think Jen Psaki will be happy to give you a readout further. So I'm very grateful to all of these ministers for traveling this distance, for being here today. This is going to be an ongoing dialogue, an ongoing process, and we look forward to continuing to work together. And it's been very, very productive. Thank you very much.

Sir Owen Glenn has challenged New Zealanders "with the means, energy, ideas and determination" to set up a non-partisan council to lead the country's economic revival.
The billionaire businessman and philanthropist, knighted in the New Year Honours, makes the proposal in an essay in today's issue of Career13, the Herald's annual survey of employment opportunities.
He is the first of three business figures selected to contribute to the series Why Isn't New Zealand Working? Two more essays will be published in Career13 editions on Wednesday and next Saturday.
Sir Owen, who has offered to chair the first meeting of his proposed council, asks: "Is 2013 going to be another one where we continue to go down the same paths we have in the past and wake up to the same headaches in 2014? Or is this the opportunity to make a resolution that the time has come for some serious thinking - and doing - in order to put new vigour and zeal into this country?"
He says the time has come for a "New Zealand Inc approach" to our economy and the governance of the country. He does not believe the country is in crisis, but "why wait for the worst-case scenario to unfold before action is taken?"
Sir Owen believes the structures and systems are in place to tackle any number of problems but bureaucracy and lack of co-ordinated leadership hamstring any meaningful headway.
"We continue to reinvent the wheel and think that the creation of new commissions, ministries and the like to tackle the big problems means things are getting done."
Part of the "NZ Inc" idea is also to have a long-term mandate and planning parameters that don't grind to a halt and change direction every three years. He argues New Zealand needs a sense of stability for planning and direction with a commitment from the country's leaders to work as one.
He is critical of the "leadership dearth" in the Beehive and the "B3 Syndrome"- selling businesses for the boat, bach and Beamer.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Thanks guys. Currently I'm using a Rio Striper Intermediate. My first experience surf fishing was on Coast Guard beach on the Cape - 5am - surf was really up last week. Intimidating to say the least! - no fish on either. I really have to work on my casting too - alot different then casting small trout flies on a 5wt! I'm going to go to a local park for some casting practice in the next few days and then maybe start hitting Breezy Point or Robert Moses next week. Great tip about reading the currents in the surf and making them work to my advantage. Sounds like the artful approach. Yet one more mystery to unravel. But if fly fishing was easy it wouldn't be as fun!
Sean makes a great point, most anglers overlook the effectiveness of a floater in the surf. Each line has it's place depending on depth of water, speed of current, forage species the fish are on, amount of floating debris, and how you choose to exploit the activity around you.
I believe (as do the vast majority) that the best all-around compromise for all dimensions of striper fishing is the intermediate line but it leaves one wanting for a sinker and a floater when those situations arise.
A compleat approach would be to have all three
Do not want to get too far off topic but maybe you already have a line that works great in the surf?
Do you have a floating line for the rod already? If so it would makes sense to give it a try in the surf before you get a full sinker. I had used a full sinker quite a bit in the surf but once I really started to understand surf fishing I realized it is more about fishing the currents and using rip tides and such to your advantage rather than cutting right through them and stripping in a sinking line. A sinking line now has became a special occasion line rather than a goto line.
Line control is important in the surf and you have no line control with a full sinker. At best I would reccomend investing in a sinking tip line rather than a full sinker. You give up too much control IMHO by not being able to mend in the surf or reposition your line quickly and easily. If you have a floater already defintely give it a try.
As far as what sinking line for that rod the 350 is best.
Sinking Line Recommends for 9wt
I've heard some people say to use a sinking line when surf fishing - particularly when the surf is up. I'm looking at the RIO DC lines in particular - do I want a 300 or 350gr for my 9 weight rod-Echo2 990?

I found a nice tiny place to live in Paris. Not very different from my previous tiny place, except I can expect to see people in the streets after 8pm, and there are restaurants and groceries in the street instead of banks and a Ferrari shop. The posh 16ème was driving me nuts, I'm now moving to the 14ème. The only drawback will be the lack of neighbours with an open WiFi network.
Still having fun with libcaca: I added antialiasing routines and support for alpha channel.
I am also working on the Scheme implementation I am maintaining (Elk), currently writing SRFI support. I also started to think about the roadmap to R5RS compliance.
Real world
Muahaha. My latest world domination project: play ASCII Art Doom (and Quake, and Quake2, and Frozen Bubble, etc.). My dithering algorithms are still a lot less powerful than AAlib, but at least I have colour!
Wow, one year and a half without any entry in this public place. I'm still maintaining my private diary, but since people complained I wasn't updating this one, here are some news: I now live in Paris, somewhere between Tour Eiffel and Arc de Triomphe. Cute place. Still haven't got my diploma, but everything should be finished on Tuesday. Ex-gf going out with absolute moron, which should theoretically suck generous amounts of raw eggs, but actually I don't care. Going to ride da world on a snowboard in 2 weeks. ph34r! And if everything goes well I'll start my PhD in less than two months. ph34r t00!
Going to FOSDEM tomorrow. Coding. Drinking beer. Making fun of RMS. Giving my GPG fingerprint to people I'll never ever see again. Drinking beer. Bwahahahaha.
I closed 22 of my Debian bugs tonight. I should be happy, but since some of them were more than one year old I think I probably deserve a kick in the butt instead...
VLC 0.5.0 is out, and it's awesome. Shitloads of new codecs, DVD navigation, support for transcoding, remultiplexing, remulticasting, an UGLY METAL SKIN on OS X (because Steve said metal was good), a thread-safe Mozilla plugin, and it even works under retarded systems like BeOS, Hurd and WinCE. Cool.
Been pretty busy with real life stuff... not much hacking lately :-(
Got the flu. But apart from that, life definitely rocks.
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.

This year's Propane Days was a huge success with more than 200 industry leaders traveling to Washington, DC to inform their Congressional representatives of issues affecting our industry. Attendees began arriving on June 4 to attend the NPGA Annual Meeting and Mid-Year Board of Directors Meeting. The program included updates from the NPGA Legislative team, keynote speaker Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD), and political pollster Bill McInturff. Participants were educated regarding legislation that affects our industry and how we can be actively involved in its development. On June 5, members were able to network with each other and their Congressional representatives at the Congressional Reception held in the U.S. Captiol at the Capitol Visitors Center. Propane Days concluded with a Regulatory Leaders Forum held on June 6.
Photos from this year's event will be available on the website at www.PropaneDays.com in the coming weeks. An announcement will be listed in NPGA Reports when the photos are available. Mark your calendar for next year's Propane Days taking place June 15 - 17, 2013.

Looking for a delicious bread idea? Then check out these herb flavored cornmeal scones – a perfect accompaniment for your meals.
Scones, a soft dough quick bread similar to biscuits, originated in Scotland. Traditionally they were served for tea, but now are often served as a bread accompaniment for meals.
To substitute for buttermilk, add 2 teaspoons vinegar or lemon juice plus enough milk to make 3/4 cup.
Before baking the scones, brush them with 1/2 teaspoon buttermilk and sprinkle them with 1 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese.

It's Official: Hesdy Gerges Will Be Released and Fight Daniel Ghita on March 6th
- Written by Dave Walsh
It's Showtime officially announced that Hesdy Gerges will be released tomorrow and will indeed be fighting Daniel Ghita on March 6th in Amsterdam.
Gerges was arrested because of possible involvement in a drug trafficking ring that included his half brother Ashraf.
Throughout this ordeal, Simon Rutz of It's Showtime has maintained he believes that Hesdy is innocent. His persistence appears to be well founded.
This is an intriguing fight and one I'm very excited to see. Both men are in the prime of their careers and fighting on a high level. Ghita comes in off of an absolute war against Gokhan Saki at the K-1 WGP Final, where he fell just short of victory. Gerges' last fight, also at the K-1 WGP Final, showcased him laying an absolute beating on Yusuke Fujimoto and ending the fight by TKO in the first round.
While K-1's future is mired in uncertainty, It's Showtime is poised for a big year and already have marquee fights lined for the future including stars such as Badr Hari, Giorgio Petrosyan, Daniel Ghita, and others. I suggest you keep an eye on their website, follow them on twitter, and friend them on Facebook. Simon Rutz and company are doing big things this year.

Kenyah or Kayan people

KIT Tropenmuseum, Amsterdam
The Kenyah and Kayan peoples of Borneo produce spectacular painted shields. Their graphic interlocking spiral, circle and hook designs form ferocious faces and figures with huge eyes and fangs. Menacing aso dog-dragons are intertwined within the spirit figures and faces. Such shields were used both physically and spiritually to protect warriors during warfare and headhunting raids.
The practice of killing members of rival communities to secure trophy heads was an important rite of passage for young men and essential to ensure the agricultural prosperity of longhouse communities. To illustrate a warrior's prowess, tufts of hair taken from human victims were often inserted into perforations in a shield's surface. While headhunting is no longer practised, decorated shields continue to be used for ritual performances.

Task Till Dawn is a free task scheduler which can execute your repetitive tasks (i.e. open files or applications) at specified times or intervals. For example, use Task Till Dawn to automatically let iTunes download the newest Podcasts at a specified time. Or let it backup your important files every day. Needless to say, tasks can also be executed manually
The application is written in Java and therefore basically platform independent. Currently, versions for Windows and Mac OS X (Intel) are available. A Linux version will probably also be available in the future.
The project is provided under the GPL, pre-compiled versions are available in the downloads section. The application is multilingual (English, German, Spanish and French).
Tasks can be executed with a delay. This might come in handy if a to be executed application has to access the Internet connection, which often is not available directly after a computer wakes up from sleep or powers up. Additionally, it is possible to cancel a tasks upcoming execution during this delay. In case of an error, Task Till Dawn displays a message in the tasklist. Tasks can also be disabled to temporarily avoid execution.
Different notification services can be used to notify the user whenever a task will be executed shortly. It is possible to use Growl notifications, text to speech and others as well.
