Analyzing risk is Liberty Mutual Insurance's business.
Don't call them to underwrite a policy on Savannah as a future home of the Champions Tour's Legends of Golf tourney, though. You can throw out the actuarial tables on this one.
Savannah is uninsurable.
The official announcement is pending, but the longest-running sponsor in professional golf will soon take its hospitality tent and go home. Or at least to Sochi, Russia, for the 2014 Winter Olympics and Brazil for next year's soccer World Cup.
The Boston-based company will utilize those sporting events to entertain its top employees, customers and board of directors going forward.
Liberty Mutual's departure leaves Savannah between a rock and a cart path.
The Legends will live on, but the event's owner, the PGA Tour, is not contractually obligated to bring it back next year. They certainly won't make keeping the tournament here a condition of the deal with a new sponsor.
Savannah might need to cut a deal to host the 2014 Legends. Word is the PGA Tour would like to keep the tournament here should a sponsor fail to be found. A sponsor-less tourney is possible, perhaps probable, since no potential Liberty Mutual successors visited this week.
But without a corporate entity to pay the bills, the PGA Tour will look to cut costs.
One spot the tour can save is rent - the group owns 33 championship-caliber TPC courses across North America.
In other words, Savannah would essentially need to offer the old five-finger discount. Either the Westin would waive the rental fee, or several local entities would partner up to offset those costs.
No easy birdie there.
Corporate outing
open to public
If the Legends of Golf tournament falls on Hutchinson Island, would anybody in Savannah hear the sound?
The Legends will never be mistaken for the Heritage. The Hilton Head Island community is heavily invested in its annual event. The tourney, one could argue, gave the resort town its identity. The tournament is a source of civic pride.
The Legends, meanwhile, is just another happening on an otherwise busy spring weekend in Savannah.
SCAD's Sidewalk Arts Festival drew more public interest than the golf tournament, even with favorite son Gene Sauers on the leaderboard. Local government leaders, front and center for most ribbon-cuttings, keep a low profile for the city's lone event that gets national television coverage.
Let's call the Legends what it is: A corporate outing, parts of which are open to the public. Take the corporation away, and all the money Liberty Mutual spends, and the tourney's local impact barely registers.
Golf fans of a certain age would miss the Legends. So would the folks at the Westin and those who have worked so hard to coordinate the volunteer efforts. The Champions Tour golfers, to hear them tell it, would be "devastated" were the tournament to move.
Most Savannahians, though, would simply shrug.
Town of arts, not sports
Sadly enough, the local apathy is less surprising than under-par scores on the Legends' scoreboard.
The event was always a litmus test for Savannah's standing as a sports town.
For years, Savannahians explained away the failed events and low attendance for the local minor league and college teams with a roll of the eyes and a wave of the hand.
Give us something worthy of support, with recognizable sports figures and the potential for drama, and we'll turn out, they said.
Well, the Champions Tour delivered, and Savannah failed to respond.
The Legends has been played here for 11 years now, and the volunteers remain the tourney's most noticeable spectators.
It's somewhat telling that the only hole organizers erect bleachers beside - the only hole where the grandstands are necessary - is the finishing hole.
And it's not like Savannah won't come out for a show. Arts events, like the film, music and book festivals, are growing every year.
But sports? Not so much.
Fortunately for Savannah, Liberty Mutual never cared about community support.
The tourney setup, with the golf course on the same site where they stayed and the historic district a quick ferry ride across the river, was enough for them.
Here's hoping another corporation feels the same way - and realizes it soon.

(Reuters) - The Carolina Panthers, New England Patriots and Cincinnati Bengals all clinched playoff spots as the National Football League playoff picture came into sharper focus on Sunday.
In the AFC, the post-season puzzle is nearly complete with the Patriots, Bengals, Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts all confirmed as division champions and the Kansas City Chiefs having also secured a playoff berth.
With just one week remaining on the regular season schedule, the Miami Dolphins (8-7), Baltimore Ravens (8-7), San Diego Chargers (8-7) and Pittsburgh Steelers (7-8) will battle for the AFC's final wildcard spot.
Things are not as clear in the NFC, where all four division crowns were still up for grabs and only the Seahawks and Panthers had locked up playoff positions.
Before the day is over, however, the NFC could yet crown one unlikely division champion. The Chicago Bears (8-6) were in position to clinch the North title with a win over the Philadelphia Eagles in the nightcap after the playoff hopes of the Detroit Lions (7-8) disappeared in a 23-20 overtime loss to the New York Giants and the Green Bay Packers (7-7-1) fell 38-31 to the Steelers on the Frozen Tundra at snowy Lambeau Field.
The Seahawks entered Sunday with the NFL's best record and unbeaten at home for two seasons but fell to 12-3 after being upset by the surprising Arizona Cardinals (10-5), who kept their own playoff dreams alive with a gritty 17-10 victory.
Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer threw four interceptions but the Arizona defense could not be breached as Seattle failed to secure the NFC West division crown and home field advantage throughout the playoffs after suffering their first home defeat since December 24, 2011.
Three more teams confirmed their invitations to the post-season party on a pulsating penultimate Sunday that dripped with of high drama and nail-biting action.
Nowhere were tensions running higher than in Charlotte, North Carolina where Carolina quarterback Cam Newton engineered a last gasp touchdown drive to cap a thrilling 17-13 win over the New Orleans Saints (10-5) and give the Panthers (11-4) their first trip to the post-season since 2008.
After Drew Brees had marched New Orleans 97 yards, hitting Jimmy Graham for a go ahead touchdown, Newton went right to work, preventing the Saints from clinching the NFC South division crown and a first round playoff bye.
With 55 seconds left on the clock and no timeouts, Newton took the Panthers 65 yards on five plays hitting Domenik Hixon with a 14-yard touchdown strike to stun the Saints and send the sellout Charlotte crowd into wild celebration.
"Man it was so close," said Newton. "We have to win games like this, it wasn't pretty but this is the definition of a playoff team, a playoff game, real close.
"We depended on the defense at times but when we needed to score we did."
In Cincinnati, Andy Dalton tossed four touchdowns as the Bengals (10-5) pounded the Minnesota Vikings 42-14 to clinch a playoff berth.
That result coupled with Miami Dolphins loss to the Buffalo Bills was enough to earn the Bengals a third straight playoff appearance.
Later on Sunday, the Bengals had more to celebrate when the Patriots crushed the Ravens 41-7 earning Cincinnati the AFC North crown.
Even before New England (11-4) had kicked off against Baltimore they had clinched a fifth straight AFC East crown and playoff spot when the Dolphins (8-7) were upset 19-0 by the Bills in icy Buffalo.
In Houston, Peyton Manning enjoyed a record smashing day throwing four touchdown passes as the Broncos (12-3) tamed the Texans 37-13 nailing down a third consecutive AFC West division title and a first round bye after the Chiefs (11-4) were surprised 23-7 by the Colts (10-5).
Manning's four touchdown strikes gave him 51 for the season eclipsing the record of 50 set by the Patriots' Tom Brady in 2007.
The Dallas Cowboys (8-7) kept their post-season hopes alive when Tony Romo found DeMarco Murray with a 10-yard touchdown strike with just 68 seconds left on the clock to eke out a 24-23 win over the Washington Redskins.
The victory sets up a winner-take-all showdown next Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles (8-6) in the regular season finale that will decide the NFC East champion.
The San Diego Chargers remained in the AFC playoff picture with a 26-13 win over the Oakland Raiders.

Hi Guys,
I wish I knew how to develop something that would - at a glance - let me know how many games my opponents have played together. This would be handy info for a million reasons that I don't need to explain to a good CCer.
To save space, players in the grid would be identified by their color and ordinal position in the game.
There would be two settings:
- Game Count (or games played together)
- Game % (games that the top row player has played with each other player as a percent of the total number of games he's played since the other player joined CC)
That's it! I've envisioned it in this mock-up...

Notes on a Conference: Catching Up; Women and HIV; and Thoughts on the Opening Ceremony
July 24, 2012
So, I won't lie: Waking up this Sunday morning wasn't easy. My intention to wake up at 6:30 a.m. in order to go running in the hotel fitness center turned into me waking up at 8 a.m. with Becky Allen, our site manager, laughing at me as she left to get breakfast.
I mean, hey, I was exhausted, and that's scary, because the conference hasn't really started yet.
But I digress.
After breakfast, the reality hit me: I still had work to do, which means I spent some of our morning in the hotel room, catching up on work email (that I hadn't really checked since Thursday), filing articles about AIDS 2012 and updating my Twitter page with a vengeance.
In the early afternoon, Becky and I set out to the convention center to tend to TheBody.com's booth and talk with advocates and people living with HIV who are unaware of TheBody.com and its mission. This is actually one of my favorite parts of the job. I love communicating with the community, talking about all of the amenities on our sites, signing up new people to our weekly newsletters and, most important, listening to people express their appreciation for the work that we do every day to disperse critical and lifesaving information to the community. I can never get enough of those stories, because I find that sitting at my desk writing stories is great, but I sometimes feel disconnected from the community and unaware of the impact that I have. And that face-to-face interaction reminds me that I do make a difference, small or large.
I don't know about you, but it's those instances that push me further to do this work.
What also pushes me to do this work is listening to advocates talk about how HIV impacts women around the globe. So, when I could break away from the booth, I attended an interesting session called Women and Girls Turning the Tides. It was great that Françoise Barré-Sinoussi, France, (IAS president-elect) was there talking about how AIDS 2014 in Melbourne, Australia, was going to be different and that women were going to have more of a force there. She even joked about how women were better at organizing than men.
One of my favorite panelists was Jantine Jacobi who serves on the UNAIDS' Gender and AIDS Team. She talked about how, yes, women are biologically more vulnerable to HIV, but that is such a small part of what is fueling HIV in women around the world. For her, the answer was simple. This is about gender oppression, violence and sexist policies.
"Instead of young girls being able to experiment with sexuality and be carefree, they have to deal with HIV. And to make matters worse, they are blamed for HIV by society and local politicians for being sexually open." Jacobi emphasized that the responsibility of HIV infection needs to be shared with men as well, especially given that so many women are not the ones making the decisions about condom use and sex in their everyday lives.
"It's unacceptable that women don't have sexual autonomy over their own bodies," she said to the crowd.
This panel was a constant reminder of just how serious gender oppression is and how, in many instances, the male leaders who make the policy and funding decisions fail women and girls far too often.
After that session ended, hundreds of people lined up to attend the opening ceremony, and what a line it was. I opted to spare myself the drama and watch it live online and look to Twitter for key quotes and themes being conveyed.
The opening ceremony had an impressive line-up of speakers, including UNAIDS' Michel Sidibe, Rev. Charles Straight from Washington, D.C., Annah Sango of Zimbabwe, U.S. representative Barbara Lee (D-CA) and World Bank president Jim Yong Kim. While I appreciated the uplifting phrases about "how we can end AIDS" and "have an AIDS-free generation" and "how we must include women, because without us, there is no us," overall I was annoyed by it.
Don't get me wrong, this type of rhetoric serves a small purpose, if only to reaffirm. But it is 30 years into this epidemic, so for us to be talking about how we need to include women and address gender oppression seems late to the party and like lip service. Because, let me be clear, telling me that women matter and nothing happens without them means very little to me when it was just a few months ago that the original cast of AIDS 2012 plenary speakers was released and there wasn't a positive woman on the list. And let's not forget the incredible amount of advocacy that women-centered HIV organizations had to go through to pressure the IAS to include more women at this year's conference.
Obviously, things can be done without women and often are.
In the end, I want for IAS and these high up HIV leaders to understand that this mainstream lofty rhetoric should only really exist if progressive, radical change is ushering it. So, in other words: Don't talk about it, be about it.
FYI: I am covering different workshops and events throughout the week in addition to blogging about my own personal experiences at AIDS 2012. Not to mention, I am live tweeting from the conference, too! Follow me: @kelleent.

Hello all,
I'm Steve and my first car (back in '74) was a second-hand LT '72 flat light TA22. Here, the ST and GT were special orders, or private imports.
It was painted Scandanavian Sky and had a full Ivory colour vinyl roof. I was a little by this later as it seems the Scanda colour was only available for the North American market. It my research time since, I have never seen another one this colour advertised here, or any colour with a vinyl roof.
I had a nostalgia moment a couple of years back and decided to start looking for a TA22 to buy. It didn't take long to realise that pre '73 models, now, are not in abundance here, and any 1st generation ones not always in the best of condition!
It took about 6 months before I found a '73 that wasn't in too bad a state but did need fabrication work in some of the usual spots (rear arches, lower sill panels and the rear corner of the drivers side roof). It had, had, some obvious knocks in its time that weren't repaired well (left hand front guard and drivers door). That was how it looked at the time anyway. Once the shell was blasted, more problems came to light, but I guess I am not alone in that experience. A previous owner had replaced the 2T with a 2T-G and I considered that a plus. The overall mechanical state of the car was quite good, it started and was driveable. The twin Solex carbs were rebuilt due to perished internals, and it needed new tie rods and bushings all round.
Long story short with the body work is that the guy who did the repairs did not do a great job. Even though he was recommended to me, the (expensive) lesson learned is that don't give a modern day panel shop your car for restoration work. If you can't fabricate your own pieces, find someone that has the trade and skill to do it properly.
The car is now having a ''real'' fabricator redo the poorly done work and completing the areas that the previous guy missed all together.
It is likely to be another 4 or so months before it comes home and then I will be putting it all back together. It will be painted in Scanda Sky, but no vinyl roof. I have a set of used flat lights that I bought over a year ago, and 5 steel GT rims, with dress rings, from Japan.
The only modifications I'm planning are a slight lowering of the ride height, and adding the GT centre console (purchased from forum member in Canada). Once finished I will keep it for a few years and enjoy it while I can still change gears manually.
The best to those reading the post.
31 July - added photos after the first round of body work and the engine re-installed.

Continental Shelves
Continental shelves were formed in between glacial periods as the ocean flowed over the continents forming shallow areas along the coasts. About 18,000 years ago, during the height of the Pleistocene ice ages, much of what is now a continental shelf was actually above water.
The continental shelves that exist today drop off at a depth of around 130 m off the coast at a steep embankment called the shelf break, which descends to the abyssal plain. The continental margin is a combination of the continental shelf and slope, a varied seascape with underwater canyons carved out by turbidity currents. Turbidity currents are also responsible for the continental rise or the gradual slope of the continental shelf into the abyssal plain. The largest shelf in the world is the Siberian Shelf in the Arctic, which measures in places up to 1,500 km in width. Some regions like Chile and Sumatra have no shelf because of their location near a subduction zone. Normal continental shelves are found in the South China Sea, the North Sea, and the Persian Gulf and are usually about 80 km in width with a depth of 30-600 m.
Continental shelves are an oasis in the ocean for plants and animals due to the abundance of sunlight, shallow waters, and nutrient packed sediment that washes in from rivers, wave action, and in some areas, upwelling. In addition to the vast amount of benthic life, the continental shelf is home to a variety of species such as tuna, menhaden, mackerel, and cod. People have depended on the continental shelf for thousands of years to provide 90% of the fisheries production in the world and, more recently, for petroleum. According to the abiogenic theory, fossil fuels were formed when ancient plants and animals fell to sedimentary rock in the ocean floor.
In 1930, many nations began to realize the value of their continental shelves, and requested new laws to replace older ones that limited their territory to only three miles from the coastline. In 1945, the U.S. was the first to gain control of the continental shelf. The international laws evolved, and in 1982 the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea was enacted to regulate marine resources and pollution worldwide. The international laws are still heavily debated and undergoing changes to allow fair access while protecting the resources belonging to individual nations.

Sermon of the Week: A patch of sunlight
Shivering and miserable, the cold pierced through my gloves, coat and even the rain suit I was wearing. It was the end of May, and I was on a fishing boat on Lake Winnibigoshish in northern Minnesota. I had paid dearly for this fishing trip and I was determined to enjoy it. Yet I began to wonder if it was worth it as my fishing pole shook
with the shivering of my body.
Then suddenly, from out of nowhere, a patch of sunlight enveloped our boat, bringing with it a delightful warmth to us cold fishermen. After that, I think I was more interested in those patches of sunlight in the sky than in catching fish in the lake.

I log into the web interface of madsonic 6.3.9560 as a user that has admin permissions. I then go to playlist tools and recover playlists, causing playlists to be imported with owner being admin. As a user with admin privileges I am able to delete songs from the playlists, but when I select a song from the player at the bottom and then click add to playlist, none of the playlists belonging to admin show up.
Given the user can delete songs from the playlist I think the user should be able to add to them as well. I don't see how to change owners of playlists, so that doesn't seem to be an alternative to this either.

Jon's tracker shows him camped on the beach at Grand Mere State Park southeast of Stevensville.
Toby's tracker shows the Intrepid 3 (they now call themselves The Mouseketeers) about 4 1/'2 miles down-lake from the South Haven pier. See Mark's blog for his report of being driven off the lake early by "thunderous surf" and high winds. Looks like they are windbound like Hugh and his crew was. Mark says they will peek out of the tents in the morning to see what's what and then decide.
Coach hopes to join them in the morning.
No call from Dan. I'll report on his report in the morning.
(This photo is not one taken by our boys, but grabbed off Google images to give a sense of the power of Lake Michigan. This is the Grand Haven pier; photo was in the Grand Rapids Press October 27, 2008.)

Photos From the 21st Annual Candlelight Vigil
By Kevin Powers
May 10, 2009
Tens of thousands of law enforcement personnel gathered in Washington, D.C., for the reading of the 387 names that were added to the wall at the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial.
Officers, survivors and supporters came from all over the country for the event hosted by The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF).
The event's speaker of honor was Attorney General Eric Holder. Additional speakers included NLEOMF Chairman and Executive Director Craig Floyd and Concerns of Police Survivors President Jennifer Thacker.
