Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Tuesday August 6th, 2013 12:52am
Today, the IL Gear Zone meets up with the Glory Days Blog as we bring you some photographs of an interesting vintage lacrosse stick that dates back some 40 years.
Long gone are the days of all-wooden, hand-made lacrosse sticks in the NCAA. Many of those sticks made their way to the field from the various reserves of the Iroquois Confederacy in southern Ontario and in parts of Upstate and Western New York.
But as lacrosse enthusiasts from the older generations might remember, some of the very first plastic-molded heads appearing in the college game were coming from similar sources.
Take a look at a fantastic piece of lacrosse equipment from the early days of the plastic stick.
As the above picture shows clearly, this particular model was marketed and sold under the Sportcraft brand, the well-known company that specializes in pool tables, fooseball tables and other indoor sports products. In the company's early years, it focused on English games, including badminton and croquet.
A full season's guarantee? Not too bad for an early model.
However, there's even more to this stick's story. The company actually manufacturing this thing stick might ring a bell: Patterson Lacrosse. John Wesley Patterson, a long-time producer of men's and women's wooden sticks and a National Lacrosse Hall of Fame member, was one of the earliest and best-known stick makers. He was particularly successful with his women's sticks, many of which can be still found today. This particular model could very well have been made for the women's game, and we'll be bringing you some pics of different Patterson sticks for comparison.
Based on what we've found, this stick was made in the mid- to late-1960s and was one of the earliest patents filed for a plastic lacrosse stick. A label on the handle reads "Made on the Tuscarora Indian Reservation."
Hailing from the Tuscarora Nation, Patterson made connections in the sports industry like many of the early stick producers, who for years would sell their sticks to the major companies -- including Brine and Bacharach Rasin and others -- and those sticks would in turn be sold throughout the United States and Canada.
If anyone has any interesting tidbits about this stick, or has more details about its origin, please feel free to contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The IL Gear Zone and Glory Days Blog will be teaming up to whisk you back to the early days of lacrosse equipment as we begin to dive into the history of lacrosse equipment.
Stay tuned for more vintage equipment posts in the near future.

|Thinking good thoughts for you and Roxie...MSU is a good place, hope they take really good care of you and your girl.
|Sending you and your girl positive thoughts for tomorrow. Yes, keep us posted. Take care.
MRI Tomorrow... (Nervous!)
Hi all,
As I'm sure you know Roxie my 8 y/o GSD has been battling what I and our local vet believed to be a bad case of hip dysplasia throughout the past couple years. A couple months ago however she began really having issues getting her legs to work right and had been crossing them when she walks. The vet recommended that I get a wheelchair to build some muscle mass so I purchased a Walkin' Wheels, which she really liked because it gave her some of her mobility back.
Fast forward a month and I noticed that her muscle mass wasn't improving even though we had been going on some pretty length walks in the woods. I then decided to get a second opinion and took her to Michigan State University. Upon examination they said that although her hips aren't perfect, they are only 10% of the problem. They said that her problem is more neurological than it is orthopedic. I told them that I did the DM test through OFFA and that it came back negative which was a relieve. They then said that they needed to do an MRI to find where the spinal cord has a problem. Either it's pinched by a disc that may have slipped and progressively got worse or something else (that is my thought not theirs!). With all that being said I agreed to have them do an MRI on her tomorrow morning (8/21) and from that they will be able to give me a better idea of what they can potentially fix through surgery.
They did tell me that with nerve problems its a big gamble but I told them that I would like to see what I can do before I rule anything out. If you guys could through some prayers out for us it would be greatly appreciated. I can't sleep at all because I'm so nervous. We will be there at 10:00 AM tomorrow morning EST. I'll post an update once I return.
Until then...

Skip him.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
Arroyo, Reynolds and Leake in Denver is a frightening thought. But mainly because of Arroyo and Leake in the thin air. REDS are going to need to bring the bats.
Then it would be Latos Bailey and Arroyo vs. the Cards at GABP. Much better.
I wouldn't skip anybody.

Actually Arroyo's career numbers on three days rest says he pitches BETTER with short rest. Don't skip him. Move him up. You have Arroyo backward - he works worse on long rest. Saw that metric somewhere last year. Bronson is just a strange athlete all around.
Pitch him. The extra day for starters this time of year is a good thing.

I would slot Reynolds for Sunday if Cingrani can't go. Or we can keep playing with 24 guys while chasing two teams and watch Reynolds fill in against the birds and get lit up like Cousin Eddie in CMas Vacation which wouldn't be a good thing.
This would require deep planning and someone making a call on Cingrani to the 15-day by Sat morning so I am sure it can't possibly be done.
OnBaseMachine (08-29-2013)
Skip Reynolds and pray Cingrani is better in time for the Cards.
If Cingrani is not healthy by the time his planned start vs the Cards comes up, we're in trouble anyhow.
It's in our best interest to minimize the number of starts Reynolds gets.
Thank you Walt and Bob for bringing winning baseball back to Cincy -- it was nice while it lasted..
Nov. 13, 2007: One of the greatest days in Reds history: John Allen gets the boot!
Any recent news on Cingrani? I know he threw some last week but haven't heard if he will make a start against the Cards.
Chris Welsh said that Cingranni had told over the weekend him that Tony's back felt great in Denver. I guess they have to see how he feels after a bullpen session if one is scheduled before proposed next start (Thursday??)

Fay says that Cingrani will start on Thursday, with Reynolds there if needed.

How do I thaw milk and serve it (or have it served) to my baby?
What should I do about breastfeeding my baby if my family is involved in a disaster?
How long should I breastfeed my baby?
The AAP recommends that babies be exclusively breastfed for about the first 6 months of life. This means your baby needs no additional foods (except Vitamin D) or fluids unless medically indicated. Babies should continue to breastfeed for a year and for as long as is mutually desired by the mother and baby. Breastfeeding should be supported by your physician for as long as it is the right choice for you and your baby.
When should I start feeding my baby solid foods?
Solid foods need to be introduced to ensure that your baby gets proper nutrition around 6 months of age. Ask your doctor about when to introduce solid foods and how to do it.
How do I prepare for breastfeeding?
- Learn as much as you can about breastfeeding before your baby is born. Read books and other information about breastfeeding and consider taking a breastfeeding class at your doctor's office, hospital, or WIC (if you are eligible). Involve your partner in learning about breastfeeding. Your partner's support will be beneficial to your breastfeeding success. Tell other family members and friends about your plans to breastfeed and gain their support.
- Prepare for Breastfeeding Success – Make Sure You and Your Health Care Professional Have All of the Facts! is a handy tip sheet that will help you discuss breastfeeding with your health care provider. Bring this with you to your next appointment.
- If you plan to return to work or school while breastfeeding and cannot go to the baby or have the baby brought to you to breastfeed, be sure to talk to your baby's caregiver about providing your breast milk while you are away. Make sure the caregiver is comfortable and willing to provide breast milk and knows the proper storage recommendations.
How can I find a breastfeeding friendly medical practice?
It is recommended that expectant parents begin interviewing pediatricians for their baby while they are pregnant. Bring this list of questions (and hints about the responses you should look to receive) to help you interview pediatricians.
Who should I call if need breastfeeding help?
If you are concerned about how breastfeeding is going, don't wait. Call someone for help. Start with your pediatrician's office. Your pediatrician should be able to assess how breastfeeding is going and offer you support. For some cases, you may be referred to a lactation consultant.
Should I join a breastfeeding support group? How can they help me?
Seek out breastfeeding support groups in your area before your baby is born and consider attending one while pregnant and becoming familiar with the leaders. Talking with other women about their breastfeeding experiences may be helpful and give you a circle of friends to call for help after the baby is born.Back to Top
How often should I nurse in the first few weeks?
If you and your baby are healthy after birth, it is best to breastfeed within the first hour after delivery. While in the hospital, keep the baby with you in your room so you can learn his hunger cues and respond promptly. Some newborns feed as often as every 1.5 hours, while others feed about every 3 hours. Breastfed newborns will feed 8-12 or more times per 24 hours (once your milk has come in). If your baby isn't waking on his own during the first few weeks, wake him if 3-4 hours have passed since the last feeding. Talk to your pediatrician if your baby continues to have a hard time waking to eat.
What if my baby is premature or ill?
Many premature and seriously ill babies can eventually breastfeed. Human milk has been shown to be very beneficial to premature and sick newborns by helping growth and preventing disease. If you have a sick or premature baby, begin expressing colostrum by hand or pump as soon as possible in the hospital. If you are discharged home and the baby stays in the hospital, talk to your doctor about expressing your milk at home and having it be fed to your infant by a feeding tube in the hospital. You will need to express your milk as often as your baby would have breastfed (approximately 8 times per 24 hour period). A double-electric breast pump (usually provided by the hospital) is most effective. As your baby gets healthy, ask your doctor for assistance in establishing direct breastfeeding. The hospital may have lactation consultants to help you do this. Be aware that this may happen quickly or take some time to establish.
How should I store expressed breast milk?
- Wash your hands before expressing or handling your milk.
- Use only clean containers to store expressed milk. Use collection containers specific for the purpose of storing human milk. Don't use ordinary plastic bags or formula bottle bags for storing milk.
- Freshly expressed milk can remain at room temperature for up to 4 hours.
- Use refrigerated milk within 48 hours.
How do I freeze my milk?
- Freeze milk if you will not be using it within 24 hours. Frozen milk is good for at least 3 months (some experts suggest 3-6 months if kept in a 0 degrees F freezer).
- Store milk at the back of the freezer — never in the freezer door.
- Make sure to label the milk with the date you froze it and possibly your child's name if you are bringing it to an out-of-home child care facility. Talk with your child care provider about how they require breast milk be stored and labeled.
How much milk should I store at a time?
Freeze 2-4 ounces of milk at a time, depending on the average amount of a single feeding for your baby. You may also want to freeze some small amounts for certain situations.
How do I thaw milk and serve it (or have it served) to my baby?
- Thaw milk in the refrigerator or you can thaw it by swirling in a bowl of warm water (do not shake!).
- Heating milk in microwave ovens or bottle warmers is not safe. Excess heat can destroy the important proteins and vitamins in the milk. If you will heat the milk in the storage container you might wish to avoid rigid plastic bottles with recycling # 7 in the triangle to avoid exposure to BPA, a potential hormone disrupter. For more information, visit the BPA Web site.
- Thawed milk must be used within 24 hours.
- Don't refreeze your milk.
What should I do about breastfeeding my baby if my family is involved in a disaster?
Breastfeeding is disaster preparedness. If you are breastfeeding you will not need to worry about feeding your baby formula that may not be available. Mothers can breastfeed under difficult circumstances with the proper support. View the Infant Feeding During a Disaster: Breastfeeding and Other Options fact sheet for more information.

Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
Yes, if you are chartering just grab a mooring.
The only times I have used a mooring ball in the BVIs was one or two nights when I had a friend on board and wanted to get the closest spot to the beach to make the holiday experience better for my friend.
However if you are taking your own boat then you can anchor in each and every bay. I even did Trellis Bay on the pick!
Someone said use a scope of 7:1. I think they may have misread your post and thought you meant the Bahamas with very shallow water. Often in the BVIs you will be anchoring in 30 feet of water that's 210 feet of chain. In 30 feet I use about 120 feet chain.
My basic rule of where to drop is 3 boat lengths astern of the clown in front. Dump say 90 feet chain down and when it settles relax to the wind a minute or two then pull slowly back till I dig in. Then I increase the revs to pull back hard.
Then I watch for 30 minutes and if I am not happy i will move. A few weeks ago in the ICW I re anchored FIVE times before I was happy (grass over hard mud???) but I didn't get embarrassed or distracted, just did it again and again till it got in.
Then I dump in the rest of the chain to my desired scope.
Next point is most important.... When I am anchored and someone else arrives to anchor near me I give them a cheery wave and GO BELOW! I do not stand on deck watching them. I do not stand with my arms folded claiming I own the water etc.
I stay below for 30 minutes.
Because most people will work out if they have dropped in the right spot within 30 minutes. But sometimes it takes that long to tell.
Then if I have a REAL problem with the new people I will go in the dinghy and ask them about their cruise, etc, and then ask them if they have anchored here before etc etc etc.... I don't think I have ever told someone outright they are too close, but after a bit of discussion the new people always mention it.... And then they move.
And when I have just anchored I jump in the dink and go say hello to the arms folded wanker brigade... And the nice people too. Funnily enough some of the arms folded people turn out to be quite nice.... Just a bad first impression.
Re the rudder. When there is no current the helm can be amidships. But in current you are free to experiment. If you are a bit close to another boat you can swing the helm a bit.... But you need to remember the tide changes!
Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
I just got back from a week charter in the BVI's. Never even opened the anchor locker. We picked up moorings every night. They are charging $30 now almost everywhere we went. Most of the boats that we saw anchored were beyond the mooring fields. We we're early risers and sailors so we usually had plenty to chose from. Considering how much you are already spending on the trip, I would just pick up a ball and forget about it. Unless you want to try some of the more secluded anchorages.
We sail the west coast of FL and it is pretty typical that people just swing on one anchor in the busy anchorages except if you are trying to get stern in on as close to the beach as you can get. Rudder position not important but it is important to know how much rode your neighbors (and of course yourself) have out.
Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
But, in February, you want to arrive between 2 and 3 to be sure there are moorings available.
Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
25 bucks a night gets a mooring ball.
ALMOST every harbor has balls throughout.
Skip anchoring, get a good nights sleep.
Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
Last I was there, two years ago, we anchored between shore and the mooring field at Bitter End Yacht club. Granted, it was tight. We've also anchored on the west side of Peter Island, can't recall the beach name. Spent a night on the south side of Beef Island, near the airport, on anchor. No one there, but not very picturesque either.
The coves are often plenty large enough, but they can get too deep for the tackle on the bareboats. Shallower areas of popular spots are filled with mooring, but you can often find a place around the edges, if you poke around carefully.
Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
There are very few spots left to anchor - maybe in North Sound.
You do not want to be in a marina - way too hot with little circulation in the boat.
I centre and lock the rudder /wheel. On a mooring ball as well.
To eye ball distances, think on boat lengths. If you have radar use the VRM to measure distances.
I like to be a rodes length from other boats. Not always possible.
|Most of the popular anchorages have moorings, usually at $25 per night with a few exceptions (Bitter End for one). If you try to anchor where mooring balls are, it is not easy. Relax and enjoy yourself. Bring extra money for the moorings.
Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
Few thoughts.
It's vacation! If you're new to anchoring, bring an extra $100 and get a mooring here and there and relax.
Winds are generally Easterly, so fully swinging around the anchor is unlikely (but not unheard of in a squall)
If you are worried about anchoring, you can usually find a spot that is further from the action, but it's probably further from shore or the nearby popular landing. A longer dinghy ride might be better than worrying.
Take whatever depth you are in, add the distance from the water to your bow roller and multiply it all by 7. That is how much rode you should put out. While more is technically better, if you put out 10x, you will be the swing problem in the anchorage.
Now I have some good new and some bad news. The good news is, you're not alone, half the bareboats around you are probably as inexperienced in anchoring. The bad is, you have to worry about them too.
Chill and have a great time. You have nothing else to do but play with your boat, swim, eat and drink!!!
Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
I like to anchor with my rudder mid ship/straight. If the need arises and you need to get out fast this helps. I also make a note to which direction is open (compos course) should we need to get away from a now lee shore. No dumb questions, just not yet answered. I like distance between myself and others, safety, privacy.

Re: Two dumb anchoring questions
rudder position not important. length of rode is. you need to know your neighbor's setup on else allow lots of extra distance. good rule of thumb is if you have doubts add more distance.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
yeah with a cool can you can run dry ice but make sure the motor is warm before you put
ice in or your fluid might freeze.Chills beers in 45 sec.
The powerworks 'intercooler' is comprised of the following parts;
* Charge-Air-Cooler or CAC- air/water heat exchanger brick in the intake manifold
* Low-Temp-Radiator or LTR - air/water heat exhanger panel behind the front bumper skin below the steel bumper
* Electric water pump
* Coolant reservoir bottle
* Hoses, fittings, clamps
The CAC can't be changed - no physical room inside the intake for a larger core.
The LTR could be changed - taller or deeper, but run the risk of knocking it off on low objects in road.
The coolant reservoir bottle could be packed with ice for a cooler water charge, but it will melt very fast, will change the coolant level, and the reservoir will need to cool down before it is re-opened (slightly pressurized). It would be better to run the CAC inlet line (pump out) thru a 'cool can' arrangement that could be packed with ice and drained separately.
COSDEVSVT... I said you could upgrade the intercooler on the Powerworks by upgrading the "heat exchanger". Not the actual A to W core. You guys do use a heat exchanger right? If you get the water cooler, then you've effectively increased your intercoolers thermal efficiency. Not to mention, if your a drag racer, you "definately" want the Powerworks... you can just throw "ice" into the reservoir to get that intercooler ice cold for a drag run.
CatMostFeared... the Vortech is a very nice unit. Very complex install, but very very nice. The intercooler is excellent and I am very impressed with the efficiency of it. My friend with an SVT (even though his car is a factory freak) and the Vortech is pushing 290whp out of it on 91 octane with the standard pulley (no upgrades). Of course he has the J&S otherwise he'd have to be tuned a tad safer. And his car is just F A S T!!!
My personal opinion:
1) Powerworks - better than OEM engineering (I mean it's cosworth) and good low end torque
2) Vortech - Quality hardware, great intercooler, will require and oil line.
3) Procharger - Quality Hardware, No oil line needed, I just dont like the intercooler.
That's my assessment, take it for what it's worth (not a whole heck of alot I know) Hehe
What I mean by relearning driving technique is that I your car will have a totally new feel to it ... lots more torque to control and redline comes up very fast as you are shifting thru the gears. Wheelspin is easy in 1st thru 3rd gear - even if you are already moving. Along with all this new power getting you moving, you will also need to slow it down effectively. Without a doubt, wet/snowy roads become even more of a challenge - but not impossible.
With the powerworks kit, you will see better improvements with a 2.5" cat-back system. A ultra-high flowing exhaust (like a 3" system) will relieve too much backpressure and the max boost won't be so high.
|One more thing with a procharger it would seen weather might be a issue seeing where the charger is located.Salt or water on a heated part doesnt look or last long.
What do you guys think about the Vortech kit its intercooler works like the powerworks air to water.
|Goat Roper
By driving techniques I believe he is speaking of learning how to manage the new found power effectively. With a supercharger there is no need to keep the engine zipping along at high rpms all the to get benefits.
I have a 3" exhaust and I am N/A so yes, I would say go 3". But to each his own.
|what do you mean relearn driving technique to really use it? You mean staying in the high rpm or something...? Also, you think the powerworks kit is a good setup? I was thinking about doing that with a 2.5" focussport stealth exhaust...i've heard people get gains of 240+whp with an exhaust....but u think i should go 3"?
You cannot 'move' or put a larger intercooler into the powerworks kit - the CAC (Charge Air Cooler) is inside the intake manifold and there is no room for a larger CAC brick.
I suppose a larger LTR (Low-Temp Radiator) could be used out in front, but you run the risk of slamming it on every low object in the road.
The powerworks intercooling system can lower charge air temp from 300 deg F to 88 deg F ... about the only thing you could do do get it cooler than that (which isn't really necessary) is to run the CAC supply line thru an ice container of some sort ... but why do that if it isn't necessary?
If you're going from a bone-stock Zetec to a 220HP car you'll have a lot to relearn in driving technique to really use it.
With the powerworks kit, you also get a very robust calibration ... better than OE MPG and driveability and no issues starting/driving in sub-zero/extremely hot weather or at high altitudes. There is some extra potential in the calibration ... you just run the risk of running on the ragged edge (and voiding your warranty).
Personally, and this is my opinion. I do not like the procharger intercooler location.
And an intercooled Roots blower (while I dont like roots blowers) their biggest enemy is heat. Now you can't help the inefficiencies inherant in a roots blower BUT the fact that it's intercooled helps alot! And remember it's an intercooler sandwich which means the air only travels maybe 3 or 4 inches from blower to manifold while passing through the intercooler. There is no long distance for the air to travel.
Each system allows pulley upgrades.
Each system can have the intercooler upgraded (procharger can be made to work with a front mount). And Powerworks if you just upgrade the heat exchange and possible move it (I dont remember where it's located). You'll get better cooling.
I say go with what you can afford. I used to be very very skeptical about centrifugal chargers because of the lack of low-end torque. But there is something very fun about feeling boost build as RPMs increase. While the fun factor of low end torque can't be understated enough. So both power deliveries have their advantages when it comes to the "fun factor".
I say get what makes you happy. The powerworks is CARB approved if that matters to you and procharger says it will be but it's not as of now, and might never be.
The last thing I will say about the two is given the same "peak" horsepower figures (which these two are kinda close but the Powerworks puts out a bit more power out of the box) the Powerworks will be alot "faster". Because they have alot more torque than the procharger alot earlier. The the powerworks is a faster setup. And that blower whine is just cool ;)
But like I said I love the "feel" of centrifugals. Crappy low end but that feeling a boost builds is quite a rush :D
oh and BTW.. procharger is tune using 91 as well otherwise they couldn't sell it in california.
Good luck.

Hours after throwing a third birthday party for their twins Kathy and Kelly in their Connecticut home, Margaret and Steve Frawley return home from a dinner in New York to discover the police in the house, their daughters missing, and an eight million dollar ransom note. The Frawleys meet the kidnapper's demands, but the abandoned car they're led to contains only Kelly, the body of the driver, and a suicide note, saying he had inadvertently killed Kathy and dumped her body in the ocean.
At the private memorial Mass for Kathy, Kelly tugs Margaret's arm and says that her sister Kathy "wants to come home right now." More unexplainable occurrences indicate that Kelly is in touch with Kathy, but no one except Margaret believes that Kathy is still alive. As Kelly's warnings become increasingly specific and alarming, however, FBI agents set out on a search for the kidnappers as Kathy's life hangs by a thread.
Delving into the well-documented but still unexplained phenomenon of twin telepathy, worldwide #1 best seller Mary Higgins Clark takes us deep into the minds of her characters while lifting us to the heights of suspense.
©2006 Mary Higgins Clark; (P)2008 Simon & Schuster Audio
Love books! Classics and lighter fiction, mysteries (not too violent please :-). And selective non-fiction--whatever takes my fancy.
"A good story--will hold your interest throughout"
This is a good mystery, written by Mary Higgins Clark, who is certainly one of the greats in this genre. This story is about a set of twins who are kidnapped, but only one gets rescued, leading to interesting plot developments that arise partly out of the mother's trust that the safe twin can feel what the other is going through and keep hope alive for finding her. Mostly it is unremarkable in other ways, a bit predictable on most levels.
However, what made it greatly interesting to me is that it was sort of a story about how often people see things or have encounters that leave them briefly wondering, then quickly dismiss them as unimportant. This entire book seemed to be circling around the numerous ways alert people misread signals and situations, passed off important clues as trivial events. It is a reminder, especially in these times, that we all probably should be more aware of what seems odd or suspicious, and not ignore unusual things we observe. That appeared to be a central part of this story--things happening that people chose to interpret as innocent events, thus prolonging the crisis.
MHC is an excellent mystery writer. I thought the narrator got off to a bad start, but quickly improved, making the book an overall good listening experience.
Never too busy for a good book!
"Another Winner"
Great read . . . . oh, I meant listen! Whether you are a fan of the author or listening to her work for the first time, you'll enjoy this book.
"A Good Plot"
Any parent's dread is to have their child kidnapped, but to have two missing is a horror. The kidnappers are callous and have no scruples. They even turn on each other. Just read or hear it to find out just how.
I liked the unusual twists in the story.
Angie Aims (Mona) was the most pitiful character.
Margaret was the wise mother who really knew her children.
Kidnapping gone amok.
"I was hoping the book was longer."
loved it but it was too short. I drive over 2 hours a day and look forward to a long book while I'm driving.
"Twice read!"
This is the second time I read this book in 10 years and I still thought it was spectacular! I love the twist and turns. I could not guess who it was that was the pipe piper and I'm usually good in guessing who the guilty party is. This is a full book and I know I'll read it again.
"Fabulous, Couldn't stop listening"
Loved it. I usually listening only when driving but this book I continued to listen in my hotel room. Amazing
"A good traveling story."
This is a good story for a short trip, which I define as around 3 hours each way. You can miss a little without having to backup. It is easy to listen to, but does not require constant concentration.
"Two Little Girls in Blue"
I loved this story. The two little girls in such a dangerous situation was riveting to me. The narrator did a great job in doing the voices that I could visualize each character that she portrayed. Hip hip hooray for the author Mary Higgins Clark . I'm definitely a fan!!!
"Had to abandon this one"
I lasted about 2 hours and had to abandon this one. I didn't care for the narration, the way the story jumped around, or the writing style. Instead of writing, for instance:
He thought back to last Tuesday, when he had spent the day hanging out with friends.
She writes like:
He remembered last Tuesday. "I spent the day hanging out with friends and had a great time", he thought.
I probably didn't do a very good job of explaining that, but if you listen you will understand what I mean and may find it as annoying as I did.
Obviously I am the one-off as everyone else seemed to enjoy it, so take this for what it's worth.

• Canisius should be well prepared for the MAAC this season after playing the most difficult schedule in the country so far.
• According to Lax Power, the Griffs have the highest strength of schedule so far this season, just ahead of Notre Dame, North Carolina and Duke.
• Of the Griffs' seven non-conference games this season, four are against teams currently in the national rankings - No. 2 Cornell, No. 5 Denver, No. 11 Syracuse and No. 19 Albany.
• Freshman Vince Gravino has quickly proven his worth at Canisius.
• The rookie is currently tied for the team lead with eight goals this season to go along with three assists for 11 points.
• On Tuesday, Gravino netted his first collegiate hat trick with all three tallies coming on an extra-man opportunity. He is the first Griff to score three man-up goals in a single game since Tom Hensel on March 24, 2007 against Wagner
• Even against the most challenging schedule in the country, the Griffs have done a good job holding their own this season. However, a late surge has usually meant the difference.
• In the first half of games this year, Canisius is being outscored by only three goals (23-20).
• However, opponents have taken advantage in the second 30 minutes of action, outscoring the Griffs by 22 goals in the third and fourth quarters (40-18).
• One player that is taking advantage of the new rules that puts an emphasis on two-way midfielders is senior Joe Rautenstrauch.
• Primarily a defensive midfielder during his first three seasons at Canisius, Rautenstrauch has scored four goals in five games as a senior.
• Rautenstrauch went scoreless during the first 26 games of his career prior to the season.
• In addition to his four goals this season, Rautenstrauch is also tied for first on the team with 19 ground balls in 2013.
• The Griffs and Keydets are meeting for the 16th time. Canisius holds an 11-4 advantage in the all-time series.
• Canisius has won nine of the last 10 games in the series, which includes the 2008 MAAC Championship a 14-5 Canisius win.
• The Griffs are 6-1 all-time at VMI, winning each of their last four games in Lexington.
• Last season, the Griffs earned a 13-11 victory against the Keydets. The win ignited a four-game winning streak for Canisius, which included both games of the 2012 MAAC Tournament.
• VMI is still in search of its first win of the 2013 season, entering the weekend at 0-6.
• The Keydets are coming off an 18-12 loss at Wagner on Tuesday.
• Russell East leads the team with 14 points on 12 goals and two assists. Bernie Mowbray ranks second with nine points on five goals and four assists.
• Gaston Ledford leads the Keydets at the faceoff X, winning 47.5 percent (58-122) of restarts.

I got a bunch of new zines in the mail today to read!!
And I have been writing a lot the last few days, for two different zines I'm writing, Bookstore Thief #2 and a so-far-untitled zine that will be interesting tidbits about all the places I've lived. Or maybe part 1 of all the places, as there are a lot.
I sent off a piece for a friend's zine that's all about zombies.

Makita is bringing its high-pressure nailer line to the U.S., and we were the first framing crew in the country to get our hands on its framing and siding coil nailers and brand-new 400-psi compressor. High-pressure nailers are more common in Japan, where the affinity for efficiency and compactness drives a lot of product designs. Makita's models have been available there for about three years; they were released in Europe last year. Now it's our turn. (We're not strangers to high-pressure nailers, however – we tested Max's high-pressure framing nailer and compressor a few years ago and have since been running its high-pressure compressors on some of our jobs.)
Instead of importing its existing compressor, Makita designed a smaller unit to be more competitive in our price-driven market. The AC310H compressor is a stylish piece of equipment with a full roll cage and protective mesh kickplates on the sides. It measures a compact 18-3/4; by 14-3/4; inches by 20-inches tall and weighs 79.4 pounds. Makita says the compressor's 1.6-gallon air tank provides as much air at 400 psi as a standard-pressure 5-gallon compressor. Our standard job compressor is an 8-gallon wheelbarrow model, so we didn't expect the Makita to run the entire crew, but we did test its limits.
The AC310H has two high-pressure and two standard-pressure air outlets, each with its own regulator. With four nailers connected – two guys framing and two guys running wall sheathing – the compressor could keep up, but just barely; it had to run nonstop and started to heat up. So we eased up on it by unplugging one of the sheathing nailers. The compressor still ran the majority of the time, but didn't struggle.
It's important to note that we were building at an altitude of 7,500 feet, and the thinner air means the compressor was handicapped by about 25 percent from its rated performance at sea level. In my estimation, the Makita should be able to comfortably handle three or four guys siding, three guys framing, or two sheathing or decking – at sea level, anyway.
An accessory wheel kit is available for the AC310H; it includes 8-inch solid rubber tires and an upright handle complete with hose-wrap hooks. The wheels handle rough terrain fairly well and really help lug the nearly 80-pound machine around a job site.
The two high-pressure coil nailers we tested look very similar except for their overall size and magazine depth. Several coil construction nailers are available in this line in Japan, but Makita is introducing just two models here that are the right size for framing and siding work. You can tell that the smaller nailer was not originally designed for siding because it – like the framing nailer – has toenailing spikes on the nose; you need to use the plastic tip (included with both models) to avoid marring siding and trim.
The AN911H framing nailer shoots wire- or plastic-collated coil nails 1-3/4 to 3-1/2 inches long in .113- to .162-inch diameters. The tool operates between 180 and 320 psi and can hold up to 300 nails in its magazine. It's 11-1/2 inches tall, 4-7/8 inches wide, and 12-1/2 inches long and weighs 5.1 pounds empty.
The AN610H siding nailer can handle coils of most common siding nails – plastic or wire-collated – from 1-1/4 to 2-1/2 inches in .099- to .113-inch shank diameters. It operates between 140 and 320 psi and holds as many as 400 nails in a coil. At 11-1/8 inches long, 5-3/8 inches wide, 10-7/8 inches tall, and 4.2 pounds empty, it's smaller than the framer.
Both tools have a push-button firing-mode selector and a simple depth-of-drive dial, but only the siding nailer has an adjustable exhaust deflector.
The idea behind high-pressure systems is that the nailers can be small yet powerful. The AN911H framing nailer is both – but adding a 2.6-pound coil of nails brings its weight to roughly what we are used to with a full-size stick nailer, except it feels front-heavy. As you shoot nails, the balance starts feeling better and better, but right about the time you get comfortable, it's time to reload.
We don't see a lot of coil-nail framing tools in the Colorado market, so it took a little while for some of my guys to get used to working with them. And during testing, I could hear them going back and forth between commenting on the extra weight of the 300-nail coil and complaining about running out of nails so quickly when they went back to work with their old stick nailers.
Makita's high-pressure framer does pack a punch. We framed with Douglas fir at its minimum pressure of 180 psi and built headers and beams with multiple plys of LVL at about 250 psi. One major advantage of the high-pressure tools is the performance headroom: If you run into especially hard woods like southern yellow pine, oak, or ipe, you can simply crank up the pressure and power through. The AN911H is designed to drive hardened nails through wood into steel channel up to 1/8 inch thick and even into green concrete. Heck, at 320 psi, this nailer could probably shoot hardened nails into the side of an armored car.
We used the AN610H siding nailer with 1-by cedar, 1-by T&G fir, fiber-cement siding, and composite wood trim, and none of the materials provided any challenge at 180 psi. We had to adjust the depth-of-drive setting to the minimum to prevent overdriving nails into the cedar. The tool had lots of headroom; its steel and concrete nailing abilities are similar to those of the framer.
Although neither tool has jammed on us yet, I was surprised that such high-tech nailers have no provision to help clear a jam should one occur. Makita recommends driving the nail back down the throat of the tool and then prying it out with a screwdriver.
Another thing missing on the nailers was a working rafter hook. We were told the hooks on each tool fit job-site safety rails in Japan, but we need them to fit Western 2-bys to be of any use.
Also, particularly after Makita won an Editor's Choice award from our publication a few years ago for having "off" switches on its entire line of construction nailers, we were disappointed to discover that these new premium nailers don't have them. This feature can help crews comply with OSHA's rule that an unattended nailer has to be disconnected or switched off.
The Verdict
Makita is helping to push the leading edge of nailer technology with this launch, and I suspect that compact, high-pressure nailers will eventually make much of our old equipment obsolete, especially the bulkier tools like framing and siding nailers. But that day hasn't arrived yet for me. As impressed as I am with these tools, I'm inclined to wait for wider distribution of parts and services – and for the stick nailer Makita has planned – and let the prices settle. But for the small crews or solo guys out there who could get by with one compressor and just a few select nailers – and can afford them – I think Makita's high-pressure system could be a worthy investment.

Linux consistently turns up high in the list of popular Internet servers, whether it's for the Web, anonymous FTP, or general services like DNS and routing mail. But security is uppermost on the mind of anyone providing such a service. Any server experiences casual probe attempts dozens of time a day, and serious break-in attempts with some frequency as well.As the cost of broadband and other high-speed Internet connectivity has gone down, and its availability has increased, more Linux users are providing or considering providing Internet services such as HTTP, Anonymous FTP, etc., to the world at large. At the same time, some important, powerful, and popular Open Source tools have emerged and rapidly matured--some of which rival expensive commercial equivalents--making Linux a particularly appropriate platform for providing secure Internet services.Building Secure Servers with Linux will help you master the principles of reliable system and network security by combining practical advice with a firm knowledge of the technical tools needed to ensure security. The book focuses on the most common use of Linux--as a hub offering services to an organization or the larger Internet--and shows readers how to harden their hosts against attacks. Author Mick Bauer, a security consultant, network architect, and lead author of the popular Paranoid Penguin column in Linux Journal, carefully outlines the security risks, defines precautions that can minimize those risks, and offers recipes for robust security. The book does not cover firewalls, but covers the more common situation where an organization protects its hub using other systems as firewalls, often proprietary firewalls.The book includes:

Building Secure Servers with Linux
By Peter Matulis
I enjoy opening this book at any chapter and reading it. I would not consider it to be a beginners' book and not for the very experienced either. A very good book for someone with a couple of years in the trenches. To get acquainted with principles but also to learn how to configure a utility/application.

The Art Deco era was a high-spirited, free-thinking time of gangsters, flappers, and speakeasies running from 1920 to 1935. Reflecting this, Art Deco jewelry is stylish and fun, as jewelry became a realm in which women felt free to express their individuality and confidence. Styles became bolder, sharper, and more masculine than earlier periods, with futuristic motifs and geometric forms.LEARN MORE
All of our vintage jewelry was originally hand-made and has been selected by our jewelry experts taking into account beauty, craftsmanship, gemstone quality, and originality.

Today's agile organizations pose operations teams with a tremendous challenge: to deploy new releases to production immediately after development and testing is completed. To ensure that applications are deployed successfully, an automatic and transparent process is required. We refer to this process as Zero Touch Deployment. This article reviews two approaches to Zero Touch Deployment-a script-based solution and a release automation platform.
The article discusses how each can solve the key technological and organizational challenges faced by agile organizations when they set out to implement an automatic deployment system. The article begins by recounting the business and technological contexts that drive agile organizations to seek deployment automation solutions.

Published: May 31, 2013
The American Psychiatric Association just released the 5th version of its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) – a manual that says as much about how we view the mind today, as it does about particular mental conditions. Indeed, latest estimates suggest that more than 50% of Americans will suffer from a "mental disorder" at some point in their lifetime, making the once "abnormal" – well, normal.
So in this episode of BackStory, the American History Guys look back over the history of mental illness in America – exploring how the diagnostic line between mental health and madness has shifted over time, and how we've treated those on both sides of it. We'll hear how the desire of slaves to escape bondage was once interpreted as a psychological disorder, how a woman's sleepwalking landed her in the state asylum, and how perspectives on depression altered in the 1970s. Plus, the Guys walk us through a mid-20th century quiz that promised to identify a new kind of mental "disorder" – our susceptibility to fascism.

Women's Basketball Falls Short at St. Bonaventure, 68-62
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay women's basketball team built an early lead over St. Bonaventure, but a hot-shooting second half helped propel the Bonnies to a 68-62 win over the Phoenix on Friday evening at the Reilly Center.
The Bonnies shot 58.3 percent (14-24) in the second half, improving to 2-1 on the early season. Comparatively, the Phoenix shot a steady 37.5 percent (21-56) in the game while being handed its first loss in its first road game of the season.
"It was a good effort by St. Bonaventure," head coach Kevin Borseth said. "Both teams needed to make adjustments in the game and they were able to make them and get back in the game while we were unable to make those changes."
A streaky first half saw the Phoenix jump out to a 16 point lead (26-10) with 8:36 remaining before St. Bonaventure closed with a run of its own to pull back to within four points, 31-27, at halftime.
Kaili Lukan (Barrie, Ontario) netted the first points of the game with a three and Mehryn Kraker (West Allis, Wis.) followed as the Phoenix took an opening 5-0 lead. Green Bay steadily built its lead to 7-5 with 16:39 remaining before going on a 9-1 run to jump out to a 16-6 advantage at the under 12 timeout. Tesha Buck (Red Wing, Minn.) totaled five points in the run, while Mariah Monke (Fergus Falls, Minn.) chipped in four.
The Phoenix took its largest lead of the game at 16 points (26-10) with 8:36 remaining, but the Bonnies responded down the stretch, closing the half on a 17-5 run to pull to within four points, 31-27, at intermission.
SBU had just six field goals in the first half, with over half of its points coming at the charity stripe (14) after the Phoenix committed 15 fouls. Green Bay finished the half shooting 37.5 percent (12-32) compared to 33.3 percent (6-18) from the the Bonnies.
"We had a nice lead but got into foul trouble in the first half and saw a lot of girls on the bench because of it," Borseth said. "That really helped them [St. Bonaventure] get back in the game, going to the line 21 times."
Hot shooting gave the hosts the advantage it needed in the second half. Chelsea Bowker opened the stanza for the Bonnies with a three point shot to get them to within one, 31-30. A pair of Kraker free throws and a Kaili Lukan layup put the Phoenix lead back at five (35-30), but an 8-0 run gave the Bonnies a 38-36 lead and forced Green Bay to call a timeout with 15:18 remaining.
St. Bonaventure steadily built on its advantage, leading by as many as 15 (60-45) with six minutes remaining.
Green Bay made things interesting down the stretch. Holding the Bonnies without a field goal the final six minutes, the Phoenix chipped away at the lead and pulled to within four points (60-56) on a three by Buck with just over two minutes remaining. However, the Phoenix couldn't pull any closer as the Bonnies went 8-for-11 from the line to close the game for the final 68-62 margin.
"We had good shots in the second half, but we just couldn't get into a rhythm," said Borseth.
St. Bonaventure finished the game shooting 47.6 percent (20-42) from the field, while the Phoenix went 37.5 percent (21-56). Green Bay forced the Bonnies into 17 turnovers, turning those miscues into 14 points, while only committing seven itself.
Kaili Lukan finished with a team and career-high 13 points, while Buck and Megan Lukan finished with 11 apiece. Kraker had a team-high six rebounds and three assists.
SBU's Gabrielle Richmond had a game-high 17 points, and Hannah Little added a game-best 10 boards.
The Phoenix returns to action on Sunday, facing Duquesne at 1:00 p.m.

I've got two of them, but it's been a while since I've shot either. If I recall correctly, I wasn't quite able to get 2 Ricochet AK loader fulls off a 9oz. and with a 14oz. I could just get 3 loader fulls. Stock barrels and with polished internals. I did put a expansion chamber on one and repolished the internals, but I didn't even get to shoot it before I had an O-ring blow on the Expansion Chamber. This was early last year and since that happened I went to using my Trilogy, SP-1 and ProMaster exclusively. If I had some Reballs I'd go test it again and tell you exact numbers along with chrono speeds and air temp.(but every marker is different). However, I don't and there's no reason for me to waste paint testing. Sorry. If you like, you could to BT's forum and ask around there, I'm sure lots of guys would tell you and there may even be a thread on it.

I really couldn't tell you, I've shot a hopper and three pods witha 20oz. Co2 tank and about the same with a 3000psi HPA tank.

|For a trail that's 4 miles long with 2500 feet of elevation gain, this hike is surprisingly easy. I thought the side trip to the "pool of winds" was just as good as the views at the summit. My first hike on the Washington side of the gorge, I would have preferred to do this climb on a weekday as there were many, many people on the trail. Good Hike though.

She made it all the way to the top, but we came down the shorter way we had come up, she'd had enough hiking for one day. I've been again just this last summer with my daughter who is now 10, played in the waterfalls and took a lot of photos. I hope to do this one again soon.

|Took advantage of the great March weather and decided to go for a hike. The road up to the trail head was closed but I parked across from the ranger station and walked the short distance up. It was very windy in the parking lot but once I was on the trail it was pretty calm. However, I could barely stand up against the wind when I got to the top. I have experienced gorge winds before, but this was in a class of its own. I spent very little time on the top before looping back around and down on the old road back to the trail.

|Took advantage of the unsesaonably good weather and was treated with an unobscured view of Mount Adams. Was glad that I had decided against doing the hike while sitting in the car park in teeming rain 17 days earlier.
Returned with my parents in mid-April. It was cooler with a couple of quick showers and the view wasn't so great, but the increased intensity of the waterfalls made up for that.

Learning to read changes the lives of children. Continuing to read changes their lives forever. This is at the core of my life's work — making sure that all children become readers who keep reading their whole lives. And since teachers are the ones who make that happen, it is also my passion to help young teachers develop the skills and beliefs needed to do this.
Prior to coming to Aurora, Dr. Erickson spent 19 years at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where she taught and conducted research related to literacy and learning. She opened and directed a reading clinic that provided tutoring to children and adolescents in the community with reading disabilities, and provided training for preservice and practicing teachers. Her focus at AU continues to be on literacy development for all students.

The video is from last fall (no good spring crow hunt shots yet). I just uploaded it a week or so ago and thought I would post it here since it is crow season. Nothing too special but it was the first bird I shot out of a layout blind and he was starting to get a bit far when I took the follow up shot.
Good luck to everyone going out there this Spring. Hopefully I can get a quick video together when the spring season ends.

Hudson preteen to begin controversial cancer treatment
By APRIL GUILMET
Union Leader Correspondent | May 20. 2014 10:32PM
McKenzie Lowe, 12, of Hudson, suffers from a rare brain tumor. Her family believes ANP, a controversial treatment offered by the Burzynski Clinic in Texas, may be her last hope. Lowe is pictured here with her grandfather, Frank LaFountain. (COURTESY)
When Rochester physician Terry Bennett heard Lowe's story, he knew firsthand what the preteen and her family were going through.
In late March, the Food and Drug Administration granted Lowe a compassion exemption, which will allow her to begin antineoplaston (ANP) treatment, an alternative medicine that controversial Texas doctor Stanislaw Burzynski has been using to treat certain brain tumors for nearly four decades.
Still, he warned that the odds aren't in Lowe's favor. "Don't expect a miracle," Bennett said. "When you discard the chaff, Burzynski only saves about five percent of patients like McKenzie."
"It's looking slightly bigger than it was before," Frenette said. "But she's still feeling pretty good, all the more reason why it's so important for her to begin treatment soon."

Arsenal Ladies have confirmed the re-signing of England forward Gemma Davison.
Gemma follows Kelly Smith and Alex Scott in returning to the Gunners from the United States, following the breakdown of the Women's Professional Soccer League 2012 season.
The 24-year-old England international helped lead Western New York Flash to the league title in 2011 with 12 appearances and one goal, before taking in a brief stint with the New Jersey outfit Sky Blue FC this year.
She returns to Arsenal Ladies for a fourth spell, having first joined the Club's Centre of Excellence as a teenager and will be looking to build on a record of 19 goals in 44 appearances for Laura Harvey's side.
Vic Akers said: "We're delighted to welcome Gemma back to the Club. She will bring an additional attacking threat to the team and great experience from her time in the US - her return is a great boost to the whole squad.
"Last season's treble was a tremendous achievement for the team, and we are confident that with the re-signings of Kelly Smith, Alex Scott and now Gemma, we are in a good position to challenge on all fronts again this season."
Gemma will be available for selection for this afternoon's Champions League quarter final match with Swedish side Gothenburg at Meadow Park.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Bills Coach Gregg Williams Previews Jacksonville [8:32 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"I think our team spoke it very well in the locker room on Sunday, on how they handled the opening win. It was a good game, but again they put it in perspective and you have to focus week in and week out in this league. You have twenty-four hours to enjoy a win, you have twenty-four hours to suffer a loss. There are no easy games in this league. Our focus has been outstanding in the locker room immediately following the ball game. When they came in on Monday and as we graded the film it was very good focus. We have a lot of things to improve upon, a lot of things we have to work on. Our attendance yesterday on their day off was amazing. They were all in here watching film and getting ready for knowing the Jaguars as well as they know someone else in their division."'
Bills linebacker named AFC player of the week [4:45 PM]

Teams Reserve Judgement After Week 1 [1:06 PM]
ESPN reports: Having seen the Buffalo defense four times in preseason, including a scrimmage in which the Bills dominated the Browns, it's difficult to believe the unit won't be vastly improved over a year ago. The additions of tackle Sam Adams, linebackers Jeff Posey and Takeo Spikes and strong safety Lawyer Milloy were huge individually and even more significant collectively. The Bills could be a top 10 defense, and Spikes will finally merit the attention he deserves, along with a Pro Bowl berth.
Spikes Selected As Player of the Week [11:24 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'Bills linebacker Takeo Spikes has been named the AFC�s Defensive Player of the Week for his performance in the team�s 31-0 win last Sunday over New England.'
Bills clicking at turnstiles as season-ticket sales climb [8:54 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"There aren't really any magical formulas to selling tickets," Donahoe said. "Usually when your team does well, your season-ticket base starts to climb. It's a challenging market because of the population and economy. Not that we're throwing those things out as excuses, but we have to try and find a way to make it better."'
Adams' jaunt cited by NFL [8:53 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Sam Adams' 37-yard interception return for a touchdown against the New England Patriots on Sunday is one of five nominations for the NFL "play of the week."'

Florida Times Union reports: 'The Jaguars still had 9,294 unsold tickets yesterday afternoon and must sell all of them by 1 p.m. tomorrow to avert the first blackout of a regular-season home opener in franchise history.'
The Bills Can Thank Bill [8:38 PM]
WIVB-TV reports: 'Belichick underestimated the ability of the Bills or any team to get Milloy signed and on the field so quickly. That is exactly why he waited until the last minute to release him. He never thought he'd see him in a Bills uniform, playing almost every snap on defense. The difference in what Milloy wanted and what the Patriots were willing to pay was under a million dollars. When there are only sixteen games in an NFL season how much is each win worth? They are most certainly worth more than a million dollars.'
Game Two: Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Buffalo Bills [8:25 PM]
Jaguars.com reports: 'There are four former Jaguars on the Bills: OT Marcus Price, an original Jaguar and sixth-round draft choice from 1995; TE Ryan Neufeld, who was a Jaguar in 2000; LB Jeff Posey, who was with the Jaguars in 2001, and WR Bobby Shaw, who played for the Jaguars a year ago.'

Quincy Patriot Ledger reports: 'Law said Milloy may not have been the reason the Pats lost the game, but Milloy did prove a point - that he could still play football at a high level. The notion that he had lost a step was floated when the Patriots cut him loose. ��I think he proved a point, exactly,'' said Law. ��I think he proved to you guys (media) who doubted him, to the organization, regardless of what they thought, and to himself. He got something off his back by proving he was as good, if not better.'''
Milloy starts new chapter in Buffalo [1:14 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports: 'It was a welcoming feeling,� he said of Sunday�s player introductions when he was the last Buffalo defender to exit the inflated helmet. �From leaving Boston the way I did, rejected, to coming here and getting my name called out and getting the fans going, it just felt like I�d been here my whole career."'
Pals, fans give Lawyer send-off fit for a King [11:22 AM]
Boston Herald reports: 'The Buffalo Bills' new tackle titan Lawyer Milloy was bowled over by all the love shown by 400 New England Patriots fans who packed a Boston bowling alley last night to raise money for his charitable foundation...``The city of Buffalo and my teammates welcomed me with open arms, but the city of Boston, I love you and thanks for lettin' me be me.'''
Bills Alumni Spotlight: Ernie Warlick [11:21 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"These fans were just crazy. I just loved them. To come here and see this kind of support, even when we first got here, and it hasn�t diminished at all, I just wanted to give my heart and soul to the team and be a winner. I wanted to participate in the community and just offer all the support I could from the standpoint of a player on the team. It was just fantastic," said Warlick, who was presented with the Ralph C. Wilson Distinguished Service Award three years ago. "I was recognized as having played a part in not only the community, but the team back then. I made that my life�s work, playing professional sports, and to be recognized like that, that�s the ultimate."'
Bledsoe keeps victory in perspective [8:55 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"I think it was a little bit of a statement game for us," Bledsoe said. "We came out and said, "Listen, it's not just on paper where we got better. We actually can take it to the field.' But that being said, in this league you've got to prove it every week. We made a bit of a statement, but we also woke some people up."'
Spikes nails fans' affection in Bills debut [8:55 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"I checked out every one of them, man," Spikes said Monday afternoon. "Empire Sports, ESPN, CNN, ESPN2. I checked out everything. It was a sight to see."'
QB Doman added to practice squad [8:54 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"He gives you a threat on the perimeter," Williams said. "He gives you a threat with his feet that should he ever get in a ball game he can makes some plays out of nothing."'
Donahoe's efforts successful so far [8:10 AM]
Dunkirk Observer reports: 'Although it was only one game, there was undoubtedly something different about this Bills team that I haven't seen in quite some time. Come to think of it, probably since the seasons surrounding that opening-day win over the Rams in '92 I had mentioned earlier. Could you feel it?'
Are Bills now the favorite in the AFC East? [5:22 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: 'What did they really do? The Patriots aren�t exactly like shutting down Joe Montana�s 49ers.'
Buffalo Bills replay [5:21 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: 'Who was Bill Belichick trying to kid when he kept denying that the Lawyer Milloy saga had nothing to do with his team�s performance? He kept saying the Bills totally outplayed the Patriots, and he was right, but to think his strange release of Milloy and his subsequent signing by Buffalo did not play a factor in the game is out of touch with reality.'
Wire still stands tall [5:20 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: '� Coy is a special young man and he made some significant plays in the special teams, plays that were needed for us on open-field plays,� Williams said Monday. � He�s a good football player.�'

Milloy issue lingering [5:18 AM]
Boston Globe reports: '"Lawyer is no longer here. To my understanding he's probably not gonna come back, so we can't count on that. I mean, I want my granddaddy to come back, but I've been waiting a long time and he ain't coming back.
