Linger Longer
Dr. Carolyn E. Poole, Director
Congrats, Chattahoochee, there's a triple treat in store for you. Three special authors are coming to town next week.
The action's at the airport Saturday May 14, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.. Pilots from all over the Southeast will converge on Quincy Municipal Airport for the annual Quincy Fly-In sponsored by Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 445.
t has been a great school year for Gretna Elementary.
Earlier the Rams celebrated as Gretna was named an "A" school and last week it was announced they led the district as well as the Big Bend Region, in the percentage of students passing the FCAT Writing Test.
"Gretna Elementary excelled with 100 percent of its fourth grade students passing," announced Superintendent Reginald James at a press conference on the district's scores.
But for the fences topped with razor wire that surround the facility and all of the graduates are female with the same color blue pants peeking out from under their gowns, the graduation on April 29 at Gadsden Correctional Facility could have been any other small high school in the nation.
In all, 49 students earned their General Education Diplomas while others earned certificates in various occupations including: cosmetology, culinary arts, law clerks, horticulture, personal computer support and commercial driver license.
From the time the sun sets over Quincy Friday evening until the street lights burn Saturday night, the city will be buzzing with excitement this weekend. This is Quincyfest weekend and people from all over north Florida will flood into town for the music, the food and the fun.
After serving nine years on the Quincy City Commission, one as mayor, Finley Cook said goodbye Tuesday night, during the regular meeting of the commission. He promised, however, to stay around and stay in touch.
The Gadsden County Tourism Development Council will give $2,000 to the Havana Day Festival to help with advertising.
According to event representative Matt Thro, they are trying to make it a much larger event. This year it will feature country music star and Quincy native Billy Dean.
The event is set for May 7 in downtown Havana.
At its April 18 meeting, the TDC also discussed its budget, billboards, grant program, its public relations firm and hiring a part-time coordinator.
The West Gadsden Panthers boy's and girls track teams placed 3rd overall at the Class 1A District 3 track meet at Maclay School in Tallahassee on April 14.
Marquis Foreman won 1st place in the high jump. Teron Fitzgerald won 1st place in the 300 hurdles.
Antwan Chaires won 1st place in the shot put.
These three, as well as Zachqur Beard (400), Dionte Jackson and Fitzgerald (110 hurdles), Keldrick Peoples (100 and 200), the 4x100, 4x400, and 4x800 relay teams have advanced to the regional meet held Thursday, April 21 at Maclay School.
On April 17 the Leon County Sheriff's Office responded to the area of Jack Vause Landing, near the Fort Braden community, in reference to a death investigation.
Deputies, detectives and dive team personnel responded and recovered the body of a white male approximately 500 yards west of the landing, along the southern shore of Lake Talquin.
Between 4,000 and 5,000 hip-hop and R&B fans are expected in Quincy Saturday for the Luau Music Festival at the city-owned industrial park on Joe Adams Road. The event will last from noon to 7 p.m. and feature at least eight different acts including Pliers, Miguel, Kevin Cosson and Ace Hood. Several local entertainers will also take the stage.

"Love Alone," a moving tale about dealing with grief by Deborah Salem Smith, Trinity's playwright-in-residence, is getting an outstanding production as the third new play in Trinity's "Three by Three in Rep."
The play deals with the unexpected death of a 48-year-old woman during a routine operation and the effect it has on her daughter, her lesbian partner of 20 years, her anesthesiologist and her husband.
Anne Scurria plays Helen, the grieving partner who is devastated by the "bad outcome" of the operation, as told to her by a by-the-book bereavement counselor and left holding the bag of her partner's personal items. Janice Duclos plays double duty as a counselor and a nurse.
Equally distraught is their daughter, Clementine (Conservatory student Leah Anderson), who shows her pent-up anger while trying to find out "what happened?"
The death also has a shocking effect on Becca, the young anesthesiologist (Angela Brazil) and her husband (Mauro Hantman). There are some very tense scenes between the two as they try to deal with her situation.
When Helen decides to sue, the situation becomes a bit complicated, bringing out a variety of feelings, anxieties and reactions. She hires a lawyer (Richard Donelly), who reluctantly reviews the case, eventually cross-examining the doctor in a tense scene that raises a variety of questions.
Salem Smith has written a tight script that is very balanced, raising questions of blame, while concentrating more on the effect that the death has on all involved.
Ironically, the Rhode Island legislature is currently considering the "I'm sorry" bill, where doctors can admit mistakes without fear of reprisal.
The play raises other questions, including the rights of a partner in a lawsuit and the roles of the operating team. It also deals with the pressures placed on the doctor's spouse as the doctor deals with the guilt of losing her first patient.
There are no easy answers to the many issues raised by this insightful play. It leaves the characters with a sense of regret, and after dealing with those seven stages of grief a way of accepting and forgiving.
This all sounds a bit heavy, and it is. The author has managed to interject some humor to relieve the incredible tension that builds. There are residual damages to every person involved, and reaching the point of acceptance and forgiveness is a difficult journey.
Salem Smith and the excellent cast are able to bring us along without being maudlin and biased and leaving us with a feeling of closure and acceptance.
"Love Alone" is at Trinity in repertory with "Sparrow Gras" and "The Mourner's Bench" through May 27. All three plays are well written and acted and well worth your time and money. Call 351-4242 for reservations.

5. It is too enticing, like a siren's song. I love following my friends, family, and fellow writers. I can easily spend all day returning to it over and over.
It's too much like the time I made a pecan pie one day. My husband and I each had a piece for dessert. The next evening after dinner, he said, "I'd like another piece of pie." I hung my head and said, "There isn't any more." I started nibbling on the pie in the morning, left a fork in the pan, and kept returning to eat a little bit more all day. Facebook is like that pie.
4. Facebook makes me cry. I am a big softie, and I can cry at almost anything. One day, I was passing through the TV room, and someone was dying on the screen. I started crying as I walked. My daughter said, "Mom, that's Al Capone."
"I can't help it," I said.
"He's dyyyying." I told you I am a softie.
3. Facebook has lots of political lies, such as when a posting made the rounds that said President Obama had the flags across the nation put at half-staff after the death of Whitney Houston. Actually, it was Republican Governor Chris Christie who made that announcement for his state alone. I wonder how many people never learned the truth. I have even been guilty of reposting something I thought was true, only to have Snopes tell me I was wrong. Heavy sigh.
2. Every time I see a recipe, I want to try it. If I see someone's enticing meal in full color, my mouth waters and I want to head for the kitchen. I think Facebook is bad for my diet.
1. Facebook is ruining (or may have already ruined) one of the old, useful rules for punctuating titles. Once upon a time, we English teachers taught that titles of short works (short stories, short poems, chapter titles) should have quotation marks ("The Trouble with Tribbles,") and titles of longer works (novels, epic poems, series) should be underlined or italicized (Star Trek).
Since Facebook does not allow underlining or italics, however, people could only use all caps for titles of longer works. Some writers on FB used all caps for a while, which makes sense because we are supposed to use all caps for our novel titles when we submit a query letter to an agent. Other writers just omitted any punctuation at all for titles on Facebook, perhaps because we associate all caps with shouting.
That would not have been so bad, but then authors (AUTHORS!) stopped using any punctuation for titles on their own blogs, even though those sites allowed them to use italics or underlining. I wish I could convince everyone to use single quotation for novel titles on Facebook, but—alas—I am only one person. So I sigh whenever I see a title with no punctuation.
We can't even tell whether we are looking at one or two novels when we see a sentence like this: I enjoyed reading Basted and Tasted. If we used single quotation marks, we could write: I enjoyed reading 'Basted' and 'Tasted,' or I enjoyed reading 'Basted and Tasted.' I know I won't win this battle, so I merely move on and sigh dramatically.
I hate Facebook. It is the reason I have not finished my novel or my memoir.
I think I will just go see what my friends on FB are doing right now. They'll understand my pain.
Bye. Sigh.

Reviews for the new re-imagining of Superman–Man of Steel–hit the internet earlier in the week. So far many are saying it's a new version that is certainly worth checking out.
But it is another male superhero movie in a summer full of male super hero movies, and to be honest we are already fatigued and summer has not even technically started. We always look for a silver lining in these types of movies, characters that we can relate to in some way and it looks like Amy Adams as Lois Lane has the potential to not just be eye candy, but a substantive female character.
Over at Hitfix, Adams talks about how Lois in this new adaptation is portrayed her as a smart, strong woman that "that you'd know today." It looks like Man of Steel will give us a Lois Lane that lives up to our expectations. It hits theaters on Friday.
Check out the interview with Adams below.
Amy Adams talks about playing a stronger, smarter Lois Lane
in 'Man Of Steel' (HitFix)

Jay Peak Opening This Weekend
JAY – Jay Peak Resort originally planned to open for its ski and ride 2013-2014 season on Thanksgiving, but that plan has changed. Mother Nature has been cold lately, and blanketing the mountain with the white stuff die-hard winter sports enthusiasts have been longing for. The resort has been busy making snow as well, to establish the right cover. These combined efforts will present an early opportunity for those who can't wait to start skiing and riding. Jay Peak Resort will open this Saturday and Sunday, a week earlier that anticipated.Please see The Newport Daily Express Friday for the complete story.

is nikon SB 105 strobe really that bad?
Posted 12 January 2013 - 04:06 AM
i mean, these days you can buy unused piece for less then 200 $.
that is significantly cheaper then any other strobe currently being popular.
is really SB 105 that useless or has much less power or what is the trick?
thanks for opinions.
P.S. i am aware of current process where nikon changes 103s with 105 s for free, but
that cannot be the only reason i suppose

FWIW, if you've still got your heart set on SB-105s (they're compact, run off of AA batteries, and are powerful), I've got 6 - 2 working great and 4 in various stages of working/not-working - that are just taking up space on my shelf. Contact me privately (firstname.lastname@example.com) if you're interested in giving them a new home.

According to the folks I talk to at Nikon here in LA, they stopped that program in the middle of 2012-ish.

About Nikon Europe, i managed to change old forgotten 103 for 105 somewhere mid summer 2012, guess i was lucky then.
After that bought another 2 in ebay, so dont really need another. Thanks for offer anyway, maybe some1 else will catch you when
it is now obvious that nothing is wrong with 105s.
Posted 02 July 2015 - 11:17 AM
FWIW I got a new SB105 in Feb 2015, in exchange for an SB103 sent in late in 2014. (It came along with a Nikonos body and lens ordered from eBay). I heard from a 3rd party that the program was about to end.
The Nikonos is cheap, light, and small enough for a surfy beach entry; and it still is with the SB105.
Posted 15 July 2018 - 11:02 AM
The recall is still active, and I suspect it always will be, because it's a safety (explosion) issue. Nowadays, Nikon is exchanging the SB-103 strobe heads for a $125 voucher on their website. I exchanged mine last week after being informed of it by another poster here.
The issue with using SB-105s and most modern UW cameras and housings, is that they sync via fiber optics. So you need a separate optical in slave trigger that ignores pre-flashes, and outputs to a Nikonos 5-pin connector. Those components exist, but they are hard to find, and not mass produced by anyone, hence expensive.

Sunset after Rain
An artist friend, Pam Holnback, says that no matter what you paint, it's a process of putting shapes of light and color onto the canvas. I'm not a painter, but I do notice light. As I was driving to town the other night, I was so awed by the light of the sunset reflecting on the wet highway that I pulled off the road and tried to photograph it. I like this image, but I wish it showed the driving lanes of the highway reflecting the light, instead of the shoulder. I'm not going to stand in the middle of the highway to take a picture, though!

Taking a Break
Sketch Support will be taking a break for an unknown amount of time. There will not be any new sketches or layouts posted during this break.
We knew when starting up Sketch Support that there was going to be a lot of work involved. We never expected it to be easy and knew that it was going to take time and effort. We are taking the time right now to decide if that time and effort we put into this site is worth it. It was a difficult decision to make but it was time to evaluate things and see where we stand.
I wish I could give you a specific date of when things might start up again but at this time I do not know.
Thank you for understanding.

Well here's to hoping it's a short break! It's a well loved site and always fun to see all the different takes on the sketches!
I hope it turns out you come back with MORE vim and vigor. :D

- Jimjams said...
Hoping that the break will do you and your team some good and that, after a suitable pause, you'll be back full of energy and inspiration. I've been scrapping with your Travel Sketch Book and popping here for inspiration too and I think that this is perhaps THE most professionally produced sketch blog on the web. You guys do a GREAT job. Thank you!
P.S. Word verification is "wail" - how apt!
- May 27, 2012 at 11:16 AM
AAUUGH! It WAS worth it, I promise. I look forward to seeing the sketches here every Sunday. I have a recurring reminder in my Google Calendar to check out this site on Sundays! Can we help?
- May 27, 2012 at 11:19 AM
I hope the break does you well, and recharges your creativity. I love this site, sorry that I haven't commented earlier! Awesome sketches and examples!

Oh, this makes me sad, but I certainly understand that it is a lot of work and time involved in this. Just know that we will miss your sketches and the DT work terribly. I do believe it is probably the most popular of any site of this sort. Maybe we should have been leaving more comments. Hoping you'll find the time and energy to return sometime in the not too distant future. Meantime I do have the kit club which is really wonderful! For those of you followers who don't subscribe to the kit club, you need to check it out!

While I totally understand, you can add me to the list of people sad to read this!
Because of this blog, I got my first Scrapbook Generation sketchbook, took Allison's sketch class, and bought more sketchbooks. I am currently using the travel sketchbook heavily and looking forward to when I will be able to order more. I've also started thinking about signing up for the super kit club! That is huge for me, I have never joined a kit club before.
I hope that your haitus gives you renewed energy and that you will return soon!

I'm sad to hear this! I completely understand the need for a break though. I just have to say, you were really the only sketch site I used with any form of regularlity (I don't use sketches but occasionally). Your sketches and DT work was always fantastic, the site was run in a most professional manner. You set a high standard, and you will be missed. Thanks for the awesome inspiration you've given. (PS, I hope these sketches will remain available for reference even though no more will be added, at least for now).

- May 27, 2012 at 2:04 PM
One part of me screams "NOOOOOO!!!" (my first reaction) and another part of me says "Good for you for setting your priorities". So, add me to the understanding bunch, but I do hope that it is a short break. I know that it has to be a TON of work between family, the scrapbook store, and blogs, but the inspiration provided is tremendously helpful!!

Oh how I can empathize with how much work goes into these types of sites. Allison you do an amazing job and even with no new sketches for an unforeseen amount of time, the vault of inspiration is timeless! ENJOY this time. Hope you are able to rest, rejuvenate, love on your family and, if time permits, come back to this side of your amazing creativity. You are awesome!

Say it isn't so! YOur site is loved and valued so I hope that after taking a break, you can figure out a way to get it going again. If the weekly posts are too much, maybe you can do beweekly or monthly. You have a fabulous site and you will be missed while taking a break.

Wow, count me with the others who are sad, but understand. I think this is the most professionally run blog. I think you are in a class by yourself. Your design team has such a variety of talent. I learn so much from each one of them. I also hope this is a short break. If not, I'm really sorry to see you go.
- May 27, 2012 at 5:25 PM
Thank you for all the inspiration you have provided! I used the sketches so often from your books, your MCC class and this site! Wishing you refreshing rest and discernment for the future! You will be missed during this hiatus.

Take care and know that your efforts are appreciated. I'm glad to see the dozens of posts supporting you, the books and your sketch clubs.
- May 27, 2012 at 6:18 PM
Understand the need, respect your decision, but sad all the same. "you don't know what you got til it's gone". I should have posted thanks and praise before now.

Like those before me, sad to hear this, but understand. I do use your sketches from this site quite often, as well as your sketch books, and have also pinned many of them to my Pinterest account for all to see!
Hopefully this break will give you a chance to recharge and come back strong! I'll be waiting to see more of your fabulous work and that of the DT!
Thanks again for all the inspiration!!

I have never figured out how you accomplish so much! You certainly deserve a nice, long break. I know even if you never post again, I can go to your previous posts for more than enough inspiration! Take care of your family and take care of you! In case I don't have the opportunity to say it again, I have followed your blog since before sketch support existed and I have enjoyed every single day of it. Thanks to you and the creative team for all you've done. Just DO NOT EVER CLOSE THE STORE!

Oh no! I can imagine how much work this site is, but it is truly one of my favorite sites. It's one of the only sites I see two page layouts! Relax, but please come back!

I totally understand that it's hard work keeping this running smoothly. You all do an exceptional job and I am so thankful for all you have done. A break is well deserved. I hope that whatever happens, you will leave what is here accessible. I come here often to look at past sketches and inspiration. I hope to continue to do so in the future. Thanks again, for all you do. I truly hope you will be back...soon!
- May 27, 2012 at 10:41 PM
I am fairly new to your site and have really enjoyed it! I hope you will keep it up so I can back track and continue to use it as a resource. Many wishes for a wonderful summer! Here's to hoping you will continue to enjoy and share your creativity.

Hi Allison, Thank you for making such a wonderful site, creating the awesome sketch books & sharing your talents with us all. You have been my mentor for many years and you'll never know just how much your work has inspired me and helped me grow as a scrapbooker. I even started my blog because of you. Your sketch books are my "go to" when I start all of my layouts. I thank you!
Take all the time you need to decide what's next and don't feel guilty! It's so imporant to do things that you are passionate about.
Love Sketch Support & Scrapbook Generation!!

I hope you are able to continue what you're doing on this site. I absolutely love your sketches! I'm a total sketch junkie, but you have the only sketches that give such detailed info on the sizes & placement on the papers on the LO. I've never found another sketch site that gives that kind of info. I really love what you do here & I'm really hoping you are able to keep doing it. Thanks so much for all the amazing inspiration you've provided to us thus far!!
- May 28, 2012 at 12:36 AM
Oh boy no, I will miss you soooo much.
Your sketches are so much inspirating and helping me with my work, you can't imagin. Your blog is the first I check in the morning.
I understand your decision, but I don't like it at all.
Specially because I can't order from sketch support, because I live in Europe.
Greetings Ilse

- Lynette said...
I totally understand why you have made this decision...but I will so miss receiving the new sketches every month. Take care Allison, when you are ready the DT and the blog will still be here.

- Pokey Puppy said...
How often I've wondered how you could keep up this awesome blog and juggle all your other responsibilities. Just want you to know whatever you decide, we will understand. At the same time, I do hope you know how very, very much you and all your work here have meant to so many of us. Your sketches have been the jumpstart to the majority of my layouts and will continue to be. Thank You!

I really enjoy this site. The sketches and inspiration are fantastic. Thanks for all you do!
- May 28, 2012 at 9:19 AM
Alison, you have to take care of yourself and family first. All else is just embellishment. I love your work and use it for inspiration all the time, so perhaps in your next life you will have some sponsors to support you. God Bless you in whatever path you choose.

Totally understand the need to reevalute how you want to spend your time. I've been a huge fan of yours and love going to your sketches when I'm in need of a creative jump start (which has been a lot lately). Thank you for all your time and effort and I sincerely hope you find your balance, whether it includes this site or not.
- May 28, 2012 at 10:43 AM
Dear Allison. Like so many posters before me, I completely understand your decision to step back and reevaluate and will miss the weekly posts immensely. Your sketches have revolutionized the way I scrap. I've taken your sketch class, bought sketch books, subscribe to the kit club and use the blog all the time. Just know that the time you've invested to date has not been wasted and I hope you decide to continue (at whatever pace works best for you) at some point in the future.
Many thanks to the entire design team and Scrapbook Generation.

I will have to wean myself of opening this site first thing every day!! I hope you take the time you need to rejuvenate but I sure will miss you and the design team!! I have all your books, took your first online class, and get the monthly "super kit", so I'm glad I'll still keep going with all of those! Thanks so much.

Alison, I hope everything is ok! Take it easy, recharge and evaluate. I don't post but have always enjoyed reading your blog and seeing the sketches, and I am thankful to you for your work. And if you feel thats it, you've had enough, then a big hug to you for all you've done. And if you decide to come back here, here's a welcome back hug!

Allison, I completely understand why you need a break and need to evaluate everything. I can only imagine how much work it takes to keep such a fabulous site up and running.
I do want you to know that I absolutely love Sketch Support and I come here often for inspiration. And I know that many of my friends over at Club CK feel the same way. Thank you for all that you have offered to us scrapbookers!!

I don't have a lot of time for blogs, so I am very picky about the ones I follow and your blog is one of my favorites. I have purchased your sktech books and LO kits. I will continue to purchase your products becasue they are fantastic!
I hope that whatever led you to this decision is something that is short-lived and easily handled. Losing this blog forever would be a terrible loss of a wonderful and reliable friend.
Good luck and hope to see you back soon!

Just want you to know that your site is on my fave feeds and I also follow many of your designers that I have found through your site. Blogging is an underappreciated type of work and takes a lot of time. I want to say I appreciate your sketches. Your two page sketches outshine any other site out there and the ideas I get as a two page girl are so appreciated. I love your style and only wish I lived close to your store. Hope you can relax and freshen up and hopefully be back.
- May 29, 2012 at 5:17 PM
- Hanne said...
NOOO! I do understand that you have to make priorities. I'm looking here almost every day and have used a lot of sketches. Right now I'm on to one of the double. Just love this site, so I hope the break won't be for long.

I love your sketches! I have your books and use this site for more inspiration. I understand you need a break from time to time, but please do what is best for you no matter how much we beg! LOL!

- Kathy said...
While I may not post every time I visit this site I am always so inspired by the work you and the team put out. Truly the best site for scrapping ideas! I have been given new freedom by using your scrapping tips and books. I love your work!! I do completely understand being totally exhausted and needing a break. I do also know people tire of having to put out that kind of work all the time. Please know I appreciate everything I've learned from Sketch Support and the books (hope those never go away either!)
- May 30, 2012 at 7:50 AM
- Deb said...
I hope it's a short break! This is the most helpful, and by far my most used, scrapbooking resource! I love seeing other's takes on a sketch and I've used many ideas!

I am so sorry to hear this, but certainly understand the work involved and how cumbersome it must be! Thanks to this site, though, I've found your books and have been adding to my library regularly! I have enjoyed the inspiration each day and love to check in ehre to see how different people have interpreted the LO. Thank you fo all you have done!!

I have come here almost everyday but have not left comments ... now I feel really bad. It will definitely be missed.

- Maureen said...
I follow this site as well! I hope you keep the archive up while you're on break! I am starting with sketch one and working my way to the most recent and haven't completed it yet. I hope you have a wonderful break and get time to spend with your family! I understand it is a lot of work, but your creativity and your inspirations are quite motivating and I've been so happy to be able to scrapbook more lately. Thank you for everything you've done!!

- Jennifer DeWolfe said...
My first reactions was noooooo! i love this site! You and all the helping hadns on this site are such an inspiration! I completely understand the time that goes into doing something like this is huge and that it conflicts with time with family. I am hoping that this is a breif break and if you need any help in the future if and when you decide to return I would gladly offer my support! Thanks everything and I hope to see you back!

I'm also one of your regular fans and I've been mostly inspired from your beautiful sketches. I feel sorry I have not left more comments.But I can assure you that you have lots of fan out there!
I do understand your need to take a break, keeping up such an interactive and creative blog does take time. I wish you a well deserved break and hopefully you will come back energized!
Take care

- June 2, 2012 at 4:55 PM
Just found your site from JazzyCreations. Never wanted to sketch before until I saw her mini on youtube and immediately saw the value of sketching. Your site looks so useful and I know it took a lot of work. I will enjoy going back thru previous posts and wish you all the best in your future. Thanks, Mary Werner
- June 3, 2012 at 9:53 AM
I absolutely love this site! I check it every week for a new sketch, and inspiration. I've bought sketch books for myself, as gifts, and I recommend them all the time. I understand that the site is very time consuming, and you must do what is best for yourself and your family. If this includes closing the site, we would all understand. Family comes before this.
If you do end up closing the site, I'd love the see some of the creative examples in your books - they give me so much inspiration to see what others have come up with!
Best to you and your family, Allison - you are incredibly talented!

Just wanted to say--love the site take all the time you need to spend with your family. We all be here when you decide to return.
- June 3, 2012 at 5:34 PM
Allison, this sketch site and books have helped me soooo much. I always looked at my layouts and thought I should have bought a kit! However, once I found your sketches, I started to believe that I really was able to make beautiful layouts. This is the most helpful and informative blog that I have found in 10 years of scrapbooking. Enjoy your break and I truly hope that you are able to find a way to balance things out so that this blog may continue.
- June 3, 2012 at 11:36 PM
- MClark said...
Whatever you decide, I want to thank you for your hard work - it has been truly inspirational to me! I am especially thankful for your emphasis on 2-page sketches. Please know that we are so appreciative of your hard work.

- The Mancilla Family said...
I love this site! I, too, check it on at least a weekly basis! I've enjoyed scrapbooking so much since I discovered your sketches ( I had been considering stopping altogether since it was so overwhelming). I took your online class as well, which was very inspirational. Thank you for your continued inspiration, but completely understand the need for quality family time!
- June 12, 2012 at 9:40 PM
Just to let you know your fans are still thinking of you, Allison and hoping all is well with you
- June 21, 2012 at 4:37 AM
- Denise G said...
So understand, but hope that you will be back soon. I love the inspiration and wish I would have discovered you sooner. Thank you for your hard work, it is a blessing.

Still mis you like crazy.
Just want you yo know.

- Kim said...
I just stopped by to see if you were up and running. I hope all is well with you. I just wanted you to know how much I love your sketches. I've gotten so much out of your creative website, and I really hope you can bring it back. Take care. :)

2011-08-21 RG105 • Footnote name
Start: 11:14:59
Seventies Soulchild: I'm first again? Good morning all.
Selma: Good Sunday Mornin Seventies
Seventies Soulchild: Good morning Selma. How are you?
Selma: Doing Ok...and you
Seventies Soulchild: Good to hear, Selma. I'm doing well. Hello alt
Selma: Good morning alt
alt: good morning Selma & Seventies Soulchild Selma, thanks for the cohabitation record from RG105, have you received my response with my Dickens situation?
Selma: Nope, when did you send it..
alt: this morning... I'll try and resend.
Seventies Soulchild: Good morning Ingrid_Doweary
Selma: No ti was not there..
Ingrid_Doweary: He Alt, Selma and Seventies
AYWalton: Good morning, all.
Seventies Soulchild: Good morning, AYWalton
Selma: Good morning Ingrid and AY
AYWalton: howdy alt, Ingrd, Ms. Selma, SoulChile hope everyone is ewll.
alt: good morning Ingrid_Doweary & Seventies Soulchild
Seventies Soulchild: yes all is well here.
AYWalton: I see you have the keys these days, Soulchile, opening up the place! lol
Seventies Soulchild: lol I guess so AYWalton...
alt: Selma, just tried to resend the cohabitation response.
AYWalton: Am just looking at it now, Selma. I think these records show just how much folks went through after the Civil War. It was no big party, folks wanted to hold on to their slaves and we have to remember that the general population was not too happy with the new status of their former slaves.
Khathu: hello everyone
Seventies Soulchild: Hello Khathu
AYWalton: greetings, khathu!! Good to see you! was thinking Khathu, perhaps one of these days some of us can have a real time Lunch Bunch gathering so we can talk genealogy in real time. We never get to catch up with each other's projects and things.
alt: true AYWalton, I saw a good program on C-Span last night about the effort of emancipating the slaves in Washington DC just prior to the CW.
AYWalton: We don't think of all of the details---it was complicated, put strains on the local community as well.
alt: the program dealt with how congress 'could' emancipate the slaves held in Wash DC as it was Federal land and not subject to the laws of any slave holding state. and the efforts to free the DC slaves in 1860. is everyone multi-tasking or what?
Seventies Soulchild: I don't know.. I was waiting for y'all to say something! lol
Ingrid_Doweary: Yes, I'm multitasking. But I'm reading this chat session as well.
AYWalton: so how was the documentary alt? Sounds like it was interesting.
Seventies Soulchild: D.C. has always been a strange city.
Ingrid_Doweary: I just tagged theC-SPAN video you and alt spoke of .
Seventies Soulchild: Is the C-SPan video in the forums, on facebook... where
Ingrid_Doweary: I added it to my "Watch Later" link for my You-Tube subscription.
Seventies Soulchild: ok
alt: it was very interesting AYWalton, the presenter was a Dr. Kathy Masur from Northwestern Univ. and it was being presented to the DC Historical Society.
Ingrid_Doweary: I did hear about that. Does anyone receive the "American History TV" alerts via email?
alt: I don't Ingrid_Doweary
Seventies Soulchild: No... I just truly happen to catch shows on Saturdays or Sundays
AYWalton: Not me, Ingrid. Plus I get to much via email as it is. SoulChile I am thinking about leaving the GuineaBissau FB group. Too much email and too many discussions on issues that don't grab me.
Selma: Ok back
AYWalton: Nothing wrong with the topics---just too much for me to sort through.
Seventies Soulchild: Yea I haven't posted there in a little while AYWalton for the same reasons. Discussiosn are all over the place. Not focused on GB
Ingrid_Doweary: I subscribe to the CSPAN upcoming program email alerts.
Khathu: have a great day everyone. just dropped in to say hello
alt: I'm a C-Span 'junkie' for the weekends & late evening viewing
Ingrid_Doweary: I understand AY and Alt.
AYWalton: and some are from folks who just have romantic feelings about the motherland, and they are just all over the place.
Seventies Soulchild: agree
AYWalton: hard to find out how to leave groups on FB, sometimes.
Seventies Soulchild: click on 'leave group'....lol
Ingrid_Doweary: How so, ay?
Seventies Soulchild: I have no problems doing that I've left several groups that people signed me up for without my consent.
alt: and groups proliferating all over the place LOL ... seems everyone has a special interest they want you to join them in LOL
Seventies Soulchild: lol I have a fan page now on FB...
AYWalton: I have a hard time finding things sometimes---especially the LEAVE button. lol oh well........better run.
Ingrid_Doweary: Good for you, Seventies. How is that going for you?
AYWalton: take care all and have a good day.
Selma: Got your email art
Seventies Soulchild: great... thank you for your continued support Ingrid_Doweary. I truly appreciate it
alt: okay Selma.. Interesting parallel, huh?
Selma: Haven't read yet.. LOL
alt: oh, okay Selma LOL
Seventies Soulchild: I tied it into my twitter account, Ingrid_Doweary. So I can post and tweet updates at the same time. I love it!
Selma: So much instant communication all day long seventies..my brain can't absorb
alt: that seems to be my problem too Selma... what to do next and which sites should I follow.
Seventies Soulchild: lol yes it can get overwhelming
Ingrid_Doweary: Overwhelming Indeed.
Seventies Soulchild: I really just wanted to get some of the people off of my personal fb site whose interested is genealogy. And alt, it is hard to keep up with all of the new genealogy pages out there Just when you get comfortable with one area, 10 more pop up.
alt: nothing wrong with that Seventies Soulchild.. and yes, there are so many 'new' genealogy pages, sites, blogs, etc. as was stated.. it can be overwhelming.
Seventies Soulchild: My latest 'project' is to get into this Woodlands Plantation and Second Creek thing in Mississippi. Good morning, ProfDru
alt: I try to give the new one's a shot unitl as Selma states 'when they enter the conversation as if it didn't start until they arrived.. those I drop ... immediately LOL
Seventies Soulchild: oh THERE is daviss! lol I want to hear about a trip someone made to the FHC.... spill
Selma: Who made a trip?
daviss: room is different, I cant see who is in the room
alt: any FHC?
Seventies Soulchild: select the users tab daviss

daviss: after the presentation I went line by line looking at the 1880 census on film left about 4:30 in the evening
Selma: Did you order any film daviss?
Ingrid_Doweary: I stepped away to look up the history behind the annual Bud Billiken Parade in Chicago. My daughter asked me about it.
daviss: no, they had the 1880 and that is what I wanted to see Selma I did not get through the entire film though so I guess I will go again
alt: was this for a particular county/township daviss?
Selma: How far is it from you daviss?
daviss: It is not that far Selma, only about a twenty min drive
Ingrid_Doweary: Is there? I just tuned to the broadcast of it. Hadn't heard about the controversy.
alt: dunno vkn, I guess since I've been in contact with a possible DNA 'cousin' from Australia.
daviss: and alt, I was trying my best again to find you know who
alt: she'll come out of hiding when she thinks you are ready for her daviss. LOL
vkn: and not a year before, daviss
ProfDru: have any of you read Melvin Collier's books 150 Years Later?

daviss: alt the lady that gave the presentation stared me straight in the eye and said "If you are looking for your ancestors pray on it"
ProfDru: It is a great book. I have the first book also, but have not read it.
daviss: she then smiled and continued on
ProfDru: what lady was that, vicky?
daviss: This was the Mormon lady

Selma: Good for Melvin

AYWalton: people married more frequently than we think, also. mortality was high---there were no antibiotics---and when folks needed help they married. often from necessity.
Selma: Thats how I found my husbands ggrandmother, her mother remarried which I didn't know, and all the kids which she had with first husband, were listed with new name
AYWalton: same thing for my Amanda---her children were listed as Barrs, when they were really YOUNGs. all were listed as if they were Pleas's children.
daviss: I would prolly have more luck if there was more than one child to look for
Selma: People really don't think about how really high the mortality rate was until the 1900's
AYWalton: true and she might have had other children, considering her age.
Selma: knocked my own self out
AYWalton: I bet they were married. be careful, now Selma!
daviss: The mortality schedule was/is messed up online
AYWalton: she could have had grown children. daughters who may have married by that time. I would study all black death certificates from Harrison County.
daviss: really dark pages but I saw the book at the center
AYWalton: you might find another child of hers. footnote had a good number of them online.

AYWalton: according to their website, anyway. time will tell, of course.
daviss: for sure
Selma: What is the new name?
AYWalton: Fold3.com that refers to the 3 stars on a folded military flag. representing their military emphasis. I think it is rather goofy---I mean---Fold 3?
daviss: me too ay
Selma: Yes, that is goofy..who is going to know what that is?
AYWalton: and military records---when others flags like the earlier flags did they have 3 stars showing? I doubt it. pretty darn goofy. even seeing the logo does not look like a flag. Looks like a triangle with 3 stars. A blue triangle at that. oh well............ better run we are having a thunder storm. later folks.

Liquigas-Cannondale is on the Bedford, Connecticut company's latest SuperSixEvo – an ultralight evolution of the previous SuperSix Hi-Mod that reportedly weighs just 695g for the bare frame. Team frames are almost certainly a fair bit heavier than that, though, given the thick coats of paint comprising the white, light green, and blue livery – paint can easily add a couple hundred grams.
Even so, team mechanics likely have to add some ballast somewhere to meet the UCI's minimum weight of 6.8kg. Our recent First Ride test bike came in at just 6.11kg (13.46lb) without pedals and that was with aluminum clinchers fitted instead of the team's more usual ultralight Mavic Cosmic Carbone Ultimate carbon tubulars.
Other aspects of Liquigas-Cannondale's team builds are similarly light, including a complete SRAM Red group – finished in matching accent colors just for the team – Cannondale's own Hollowgram SL BB30 crank with SRM power measuring spiders, fi'zi:k saddles with braided carbon rails, Speedplay Zero Stainless pedals, Elite bottle cages, Gore Ride-On derailleur cables and housing, and FSA bars, stems, and seatposts.
As for that crazy height-adjustable seatpost we showed you on Ivan Basso's machine just prior to the start of this year's Tour de France? Perhaps he's saving it for a special occasion but unless we've missed it, Basso hasn't actually used it during any stage of the race.
Striking Time RXRSUlteam machines for Saur-Sojasun
Saur-Sojasun's Time RXRS Ulteam machines
French cycling team Saur-Sojasun is "keeping it in the family" so to speak with its Time RXRS Ulteam road machines in this year's Tour de France. Time has made some concessions to aerodynamic performance with the frame's deeper-section down tube and seat tube but for the most part, the focus still remains on stiffness, weight, and ride quality.
Key features on Saur-Sojasun's team bikes are the Translink integrated seatmast, the asymmetrical chain stays, tapered front end, nanotube-infused carbon fiber materials that are still woven in-house using Time's RTM process, and so-called Vibraser composite construction to maintain the company's characteristically smooth ride quality.
Saur-Sojasun equips its Time RXRS Ulteam frames with an eclectic mix of components, including a SRAM Red transmission, Rotor 3D+ cranksets (mostly with round chainrings), Corima carbon tubular wheels with carbon hubs and spokes wrapped with Panaracer rubber, FSA bars and stems, TRP R970SL magnesium brake calipers with cam-style quick-release, Gore Ride-On sealed derailleur cables and housing, and – of course – Time iClic pedals.
Aero Ridley Noahs for Vacansoleil-DCM
The Noah Fast has been mostly kept on the roofs of the Vacansoleil team cars
Dutch cycling team Vacansoleil-DCM – including new hero Johnny Hoogerland – has mostly been using Ridley's aerodynamic Noah to contest road stages in this year's Tour de France. A decidedly unusual machine with its sweeping lines and very deep tube profiles, the Noah's defining features are its uniquely split fork blades and seat stays that are said to help direct air out and away from the wheels' churning spokes to decrease drag.
In addition, roughened surfaces on the outermost edges of key tubes supposedly helps passing air 'stick' to the trailing edges of the frame for cleaner airflow. All told, Ridley claims a 20-watt savings at 40km/h (25mph) as compared to its own round-tubed Helium.
Build kits include SRAM's top-end Red group, Rotor 3D+ cranks and chainrings, FFWD wheels, Look KéO pedals, Deda bars and stems, Selle San Marco saddles, Vredestein tires, Tacx bottles and cages, KMC chains, and grippy Lizard Skins bar tape.
Two Vacansoleil-DCM riders have a new Ridley aero bike at their disposal: the even more striking Noah Fast, which shares similar split-tube shaping as the standard Noah but with cleverly incorporated linear-pull brakes that are molded directly into the carbon fiber structure. In addition to cleaning up the aerodynamic profile of the bike, the integrated brake calipers drop a substantial amount of weight, they should require less maintenance than conventional calipers, and they still include standard adjustments like pad height and angle and spring tension.
The R-Surface texturing on Vacansoleil-DCM's standard Noahs also give way to a more pronounced rubber ridge on the Noah Fast.
That all being said, though, those new Noah Fasts have mostly made it to the finish lines each day atop the team cars as spare bikes. Given the newness of the model, we're guessing team riders are gathering up more test time before committing them to competition.

Egypt - Isreal
UNDATED (AP) — The Simon Wiesenthal Center, which monitors anti-Semitic incidents worldwide, has made a strong condemnation of Egypt's new President Mohammed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood after he attended a sermon where the preacher called for the "destruction and dispersal of the Jews."
A video emailed by the center showed Morsi at a mosque in the Mediterranean town of Marsa Matruh, where the congregation answers "Amen" to a cleric who recites a list of prayers in a traditional ritual.
In one of the prayers, the cleric asked God to "destroy the Jews and their supporters and disperse them, rend them asunder." Morsi is then seen continuing to say Amen. The prayers were aired on state TV and caught on video by MEMRI, a pro-Israel media monitoring group.
In a statement, the Wiesenthal Center called for President Barack Obama to condemn what it called "the growing chorus of anti-Semitism in Egypt, led by the Muslim Brotherhood" and to cut contacts with the group.

13-year-old boy feels more than brotherly love
Dear Annie: I am a 13-year-old boy and can't talk about this with anyone I know.
My father isn't in my life. It never mattered because I have the best older brother anyone could ask for. "Tommy" is 21, and he is my hero. He helps me with my homework, teaches me about life, takes me places, protects me and loves me unconditionally.
But here's the problem. I think I'm in love with him. Is that possible? He's all I can think about. I'm not gay. I like girls. I have never felt this way about any other guy. Tommy has a girlfriend, and they plan to get married. He's never done anything to make me think he has other feelings for me, although he's very affectionate. He gives me hugs and kisses the top of my head.
Is there something seriously wrong with me? Should I tell Tommy how I feel? I really love him with all my heart. -- Little Brother
Dear Brother: Thinking you are in love with a sibling is actually not that uncommon. When you are 13 and going through a great many physical and hormonal changes, it is easy to think that the strong, loving feelings you have for Tommy may be romantic in nature. You admire him, appreciate him and want to be close to him. The important thing is to understand that these feelings will be replaced by more appropriate ones as you get older. Until then, you can discuss these feelings with your Mom, your school counselor, your doctor or a trusted adult relative or neighbor.
Dear Annie: Our son married a wonderful girl last fall, and we love her and her parents dearly. There is only one problem. Their eating habits are atrocious.
"Emma" cooks nothing but high-fat, high-sugar food. Her mother cooks the same way. Since marrying, our son has put on a lot of weight, and all of them could lose a few pounds. Her father is having gallbladder issues but refuses to change his diet.
I have offered to help Emma learn new recipes, but she isn't interested. I love these people and want to help them develop better eating habits, but I don't want to make them angry by sticking my nose in where it doesn't belong. How do I help? -- Mom-in-Law
Dear Mom-in-Law: Please don't tell Emma's parents how to eat. Your intentions are good, but there is no way to do this without sounding as if you are lecturing and criticizing them. The same goes for your daughter-in-law. Instead, concentrate on your son. Surely, he grew up with healthier eating habits and knows the difference. Encourage him to help Emma stay healthy, because this is something that will affect their future children. Then stay out of it.
Dear Annie: You missed the boat with "Maisie's Mom," whose daughter won't let the dog live with them after she promised she could. You admitted that Mom is a victim of a bullying and abusive daughter, but then said she might have to apologize anyway in order to keep seeing her little grandson.
Mom owes NO ONE an apology. She should find a place to live with Maisie and move on. Perhaps when the grandson is older, he will choose to be a part of his grandmother's life. In the meantime, Mom can volunteer at a school to be with children. Life is too short. -- Amazed and Appalled
Dear Amazed: A great many readers thought "Maisie's Mom" should keep the dog and cut her daughter and grandchild out of her life. That is her choice, but we know many parents would not think that is a satisfying solution.

One of my sisters used to be a deputy attorney general in Des Moines. Over the years, she has occasionally taught classes at the Department of Public Safety Basic Academy in Johnston. She takes the raw recruits and molds them into fine, upstanding, law-abiding officers who would never dream of violating anyone's civil rights.
One of the topics she covers is report writing. She tells the recruits how to properly fill out an eyewitness report and gives them a few pointers on things that should be included. She decided that the best way for these recruits to understand the miserable performance of the eyewitnesses that they would encounter in their work was to have the recruits actually witness a crime firsthand. The obvious solution was to have some criminal-type come into the classroom and rob her of her purse at gunpoint before fleeing the scene. The recruits are always unarmed, so it's one of the few occasions when it's safe to point a fake gun at a roomful of peace officers.
This is where I come into the picture. She said she selected me because she thinks I look like a Department of Criminal Investigation agent. That makes it easier to arrange a photo lineup later, because she can find plenty of DCI agent pictures to distract the recruits from the real perpetrator. My plan of action works like this: I run into the classroom brandishing a weapon and order everyone to freeze. I then stick the weapon in Roxann's face and demand her purse. I grab the purse and flee the room. Start to finish, it takes about three seconds. The recruits are then asked to fill out eyewitness reports and describe what they just saw. They are also asked to give a physical description of the perpetrator. (This is my favorite part.) I usually wear a Two Guys Farming hat and some kind of shirt with writing on it because some of these people pay close enough attention to details that they actually read that kind of stuff!
The first time I did this a few years ago, the variation in descriptions was a little scary. I was described by different people as 5'8", 165 pounds, between the ages of 40 and 50, with gray hair. (Those last two really hurt!) In reality, at that time I was 6'3", weighed 225 pounds, and was in my mid-twenties with reddish-brown hair. I could have been walking down the street with Steve Martin, and these Keystone Kops would have busted Steve rather than me. When I went back into the room after the exercise and gave my actual physical measurements, there were a couple of audible gasps.
I've also used my nephew as an accomplice. When he was about 10 or 11, he stood at the back of the room with a gun to provide cover for me. After we were done and came back into the room, the class was asked if I was working alone during the robbery. One observant contestant didn't think so. "No. He had a midget with him." That's right, Ms. Ryan had been accosted by The Jolly Green Giant and his little friend, Sprout!
Another day I got to have an accomplice by the name of Pete. Pete is a cop who is about 5'6" and not what you would call "beefy." He has an office down the hall from the classroom where my sister teaches.
Pete turned out to be a cop with a Steven Segal/Bruce Willis complex. He appeared to be mild-mannered on the outside, but once we started selecting weapons to use, he became someone else entirely. As he picked up the machine gun that suited his taste, he informed me that he HAD been the leader of his S.W.A.T. team, ya know. Well, well, well...this should be fun ‹ me and Lieutenant Howard Hunter from Hill Street Blues.
Our plan was to have Pete enter the classroom and provide cover for me while I did the robbery. Pete and I went over the plan twice before we went down the hallway.
We walked down the hall to the classroom where my sister was teaching and Pete instantly braced himself against the wall like it was a DEA raid. He was going to provide cover for me when we went in and he was taking this a little more seriously than I was.
Pete stormed into the classroom and barked, "DOWN! DOWN! EVERYBODY DOWN!"
I followed a second later and (in comparative terms) timidly asked for my sister's purse at gunpoint.
We left the room about two and a half seconds after we had entered. The job was done.
It turns out that some of the students were so used to the paramilitary atmosphere of the academy that they actually hit the floor and started doing push-ups when Pete entered the room screaming at everyone to get down! All the way back to his office, Pete was cackling with laughter about "how many of 'em ACTUALLY HIT THE FLOOR!!!"
I was just feeling lucky not to have been shot.
The recruits described Pete as at least 5'9" to 6' tall and stocky. Pete was thrilled. I was called 6' tall or more. One person said I appeared to be very muscular. I must remember to send him a thank you note and a fresh magazine of bullets as a token of my appreciation. Several of the recruits couldn't describe me because they were already on the floor when I got into the room. Some never heard me demand the purse, because they were too busy counting out the push-ups!
The last time I did this, the little weasels chased me down! I was running out of the classroom when I suddenly heard the thunder of footsteps behind me. I had to find a quick exit from the building. Before I could get very far, a crowd of cadets had me surrounded. They were pretty timid when they caught me. That wasn't good. When they brought me into the classroom, they put me up front and questioned me. My sister asked if I had been frisked. At that point, I reached into my belt, pulled out my fake weapon and started firing at several soon-to-be-dead cops. Their classmates never let them forget it. I like to think they'll be better cops because of it.
Here to serve. Have fun; have gun; will travel.
Guy No. 2

- Time it was swallowed
- Amount swallowed
Poison Control, or a local emergency number
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
What to expect at the emergency room
The health care provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated as appropriate. You may receive:
- Activated charcoal
- Breathing support
- Endoscopy — camera down the throat to see burns in the esophagus and the stomach
- Fluids through a vein (by IV)
- Laxative
- Medicine (antidote) to reverse the effect of the poison
- Surgical removal of burned skin (skin debridement)
- Tube through the mouth into the stomach to wash out the stomach (
gastric lavage)
- Washing of the skin (irrigation) — perhaps every few hours for several days
Expectations (prognosis)
This can be a very serious poisoning. How well you do depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment is received. The faster you get medical help, the better the chance for recovery.
Extensive damage to the mouth, throat, and stomach is possible. The outcome depends on the extent of this damage. Damage can continue to occur to the esophagus and stomach for several weeks after the product is swallowed.

March 1, 2006
Once again, it was the base on balls that got Lipscomb pitchers in trouble. Lipscomb pitchers combined to walk eight batters in the Bisons 16-3 loss to the Austin Peay Governors on Wednesday, March 1.
Freshman left hander Josh Spicer got the start for the Bisons. Coming into the game Spicer had pitched three innings giving up four hits and no earned runs.
Starting in the first inning, the Governors struck early and often. Austin Peay loaded the bases with no outs in the first courtesy of two walks and an error. However, Spicer settled down and got the next batter, Jake Lane, to ground into a double play. But a run scored on the play giving the Governors a lead they would never relinquish.
Spicer pitched 2.2 innings giving up four runs, two earned, on four hits and three walks, striking out two. He was removed in the third in favor of right hander Brandon McClurg.
The Bisons finally got on the board in the bottom of the sixth. With one out, Tadd Brewer hit an inside the park home run to give the Bisons their first run of the game, and bring the score to 8-1.
The Bisons added another run in the seventh on a home run by right fielder Zac Miller. It was Miller's first home run of the season.
The Governors scored eight runs in the top of the eighth to put the game away. Right hander Josh Smith came into the game with one out and quickly shut the Governors down for the remainder of the game. Smith struck out four of the five batters he faced.
The Bisons scored their final run in the bottom of the ninth. Nathan Sensing led off with a double and advanced to third on a single by Miller. The next batter, Caleb Joseph hit an RBI sacrifice fly to center to bring home the run.
In the game, six Bisons pitchers combined to allow 16 runs on 14 hits and eight walks.
On offense, the Bisons were led by Nathan Sensing and Zac Miller, each with two hits.
The Bisons are back in action on March 4, when they travel to Tallahassee, Florida to take on Florida A&M in a double header. The first game is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m.

Four Queens men claim they were locked up for more than 30 hours by cops seeking revenge on a crowd of men who laughed at an officer who couldn't catch a fleeing drug suspect.
The men insist they didn't even laugh, says their lawyer Gabriel P. Harvis, who filed suit against the NYPD and 10 unidentified officers in Brooklyn Federal Court. They believe they were arrested because cops wanted to take their frustration out on them, he said.
"The cops knew my clients had done nothing wrong, but they didn't care," said Harvis, who represents Abdul Kabba, Isaiah Barnes, Hasan Allen and Ishmial Deas. Police "were embarrassed, so they abused their power by locking them up anyway."
The four were held for 27 hours in the 103rd Precinct stationhouse before the Queens district attorney's office dropped the charges.

In a raucous session that brought lawmakers to blows this month, the Afghan parliament passed a no-confidence vote against the country's top security officials: the ministers of defense and interior. With Afghanistan struggling to take on more challenging pieces of its own defense burden from international troops, the decision came as an ill-timed surprise. Just as surprising was President Hamid Karzai's quick agreement that the two should go.
It is always hazardous to claim to see through the complexities of Afghan politics, but the ousters were clearly rooted, at least in part, in a fierce struggle for positioning in a post-America Afghanistan that may well implode.
One reason cited by officials and the media for the no-confidence vote is that the lawmakers had grown exasperated by the security forces' inability to stem or respond to artillery fire that has been pummeling Afghanistan from neighboring Pakistan. It's certainly true that people are frustrated by the shelling, but whether that is the reason or the excuse for the vote is less clear. Short of a declaration of war on Pakistan, an eminently political decision that would require at least some international coordination, it's not clear what the army could do.
A second reason cited for the ousters is that Karzai wants to demonstrate that he is at last taking action against corruption in his government, and the record of police and military personnel is particularly poor. However, having worked for two commanders of international military forces as well as for the Joint Staff on anti-corruption policy in Afghanistan, I have not observed Karzai, since 2003, make a good-faith move to address the institutionalized graft that plagues his country. Rather, he has obstructed anti-corruption efforts, directing ministers to shut down investigations, ordering detained suspects set free, and reportedly helping arrange the 2010 escape from Afghanistan of a former minister of religious affairs indicted on charges of corruption. It seems unlikely that high-mindedness is motivating the president now.

Last night we reported that MMO Senior Editor, John Delcos, spoke with a team executive from the Milwaukee Brewers who said that the "Mets were asking for more than they were willing to give up for Ike Davis."
"It makes more sense for us to re-sign Corey Hart and we won't have to lose any assets to get him."
At the time, we believed that talks for Davis with the Brewers were dead.
There was a rumor late this afternoon that the Brewers and Mets were talking again, but Jim Duquette then reported an hour ago that the Brewers are out, confirming what our source initially told us.
Source: Mets asked Brewers for young, controllable pitching for Ike – Thornburg among others. MIL said no and were told they're out.
— Jim Duquette (@Jim_Duquette) December 11, 2013
Tyler Thornburg, 24, had a solid season in 2013 going 3-1 in 18 games (seven starts) with an ERA of 2.03 in 66.2 innings.
The Brewers are getting antsy, reports Adam Rubin, and would like a decision from Hart soon. If that falls through, maybe Milwaukee comes back to the Mets?
We'll see…
Original Post 12/9
The Mets intend to find a trade partner for either Ike Davis or Lucas Duda during the Winter Meetings this week.
Newsday's Marc Carig writes that though both have been mentioned as trade candidates, it appears that Davis is more likely to be moved.
David Lennon, also of Newsday, agrees saying that the Mets sound more invested in Duda's growth than Davis. and that Davis could be dealt this week.
Our own John Delcos said that there seems to be an urgency to want to trade Davis now, even though it could mean getting less.
The Brewers, Pirates, Orioles and Rays have showed varying levels of interest, but it's Milwaukee who seems to have the most serious interest. Marc Carig of Newsday confirms that the Brewers and Mets did talk today. But one person we spoke to with knowledge of the situation said there is nothing imminent. The Brewers are more interested in re-signing Corey Hart and have made him a priority. The other three teams' interest ranges from lukewarm to distant.
Neither Davis or Duda alone will be enough to get the Mets the shortstop they need or a starting pitcher who can give them the innings they want. But a source told Carig that the Mets remain confident that there are enough potential trade partners remaining for first basemen with power.
That may be true, but there are other options available. The first-base market is flush with trade possibilities in the Marlins'Logan Morrison, the Rangers' Mitch Moreland and the Red Sox's Mike Carp, according to Ken Rosenthal.
Other choices include free agents James Loney, Corey Hart and Kendrys Morales. The Rays, Pirates and Brewers are three teams looking for first basemen.
It certainly looks like Davis' days with the Mets are numbered and that the front office is resigned to moving him as quickly as possible so they can move on from this first base controversy.
