Graeme McDowell's slide continues at US Open
PINEHURST, North Carolina (AP) — Graeme McDowell spent as much energy fighting frustration as he did the demanding conditions at the U.S. Open on Saturday.
Three strokes back after the first round, the 2010 Open winner had seven bogeys in a 5-over 75 that left him 7 over after 54 holes. It was his second straight day over par, sliding him further down the leaderboard after a promising start at Pinehurst No. 2.
"It's very, very difficult mentally, to stay in it," McDowell said. "You start thinking to yourself, 'I'm not even sure if I want to play tomorrow.' It's not really enjoyable. It's not enjoyable. It's very difficult. But it's the U.S. Open."
McDowell opened with a 68 on Thursday, playing conservatively but putting the ball where he wanted it in a nearly mistake-free performance. But he fell back on Friday with a 74, making four bogeys and a double bogey.
Things did not get any better on Saturday as the course got harder and faster with unforgiving pin placements.
His sixth hole started a run of four straight bogeys before the turn, with two more coming on the 13th and 16th holes.
"This is a hard golf course for me because it's so long," McDowell said. "I don't get a lot of wedges in my hands, short irons in my hands. That's the strength of my game. ... My iron play hasn't been bad. I just haven't given myself enough opportunities.
"It's the US Open, golf's toughest test. And they were right today."
STENSON'S PUSH: Henrik Stenson nearly made it 3 for 3 in finishing below par at Pinehurst No. 2.
The No. 2-ranked Swede had finished at 1-under 69 on each of the first two days. He was ready to do it again before his bogey on the 18th left him at 70 and tied for fourth at 2 under overall, six shots back of Martin Kaymer.
Stenson declined to speak with reporters afterward, saying he was off to the driving range.
Stenson is playing in his eighth U.S. Open, with his best finish being ninth at Bethpage Black in 2009. He will join Erik Compton (3 under) in the next-to-last group for Sunday's final round.
SAY THAT AGAIN: Martin Kaymer lives in Arizona and speaks beautiful English.
The Rules of Golf can have a language all its own.
The German hit a tee shot on the fourth hole that went into a sandy area that had been washed out by rain earlier in the week. The ball was against a 6-inch high pile of pine straw, and he thought he might get relief.
USGA President Tom O'Toole was the official and tried to explain that he would not get relief, bringing in roving official Jeff Hall for backup.
Kaymer looked perplexed.
"I don't understand his English," he said to his caddie, Craig Connelly of Scotland.
All he needed to know is that he would not get relief.
"I didn't really understand the English that the referee was trying to tell me," Kaymer said. "So I said to my caddie, 'You have to take over here,' because he speaks better English than me — even though he's Scottish."
PERRY'S EAGLE: Kenny Perry's final U.S. Open now includes what he figures is the longest shot of his career.
Perry eagled the par-4 14th with a 220-yard shot out of a bunker. The ball bounced on the green and rolled straight to the pin with enough speed that last he thought it might zip right by the hole.
"Came out like a dream," he said.
The 53-year-old Perry, who plays on the Champions Tour, is playing in the Open for the first time since 2010. Last year's U.S. Senior Open winner played Saturday with Billy Horschel — who at 27 is the same age as Perry's youngest daughter.
"I still hit my drivers as far as Billy hits it, but his irons are different," Perry said. "They're coming out higher, softer, more spin. My irons are a lot flatter now with less spin.
"It makes it very difficult to compete in a major championship, but it does just fine on the Champions Tour."
He was 7 over after a 74.
A LAUGH FROM LEFTY: Phil Mickelson poked a little fun at his run of runner-up finishes at the U.S. Open.
Mickelson has wound up second a record six times for the only major title that has eluded him, including at Pinehurst No. 2 in 1999.
He shot a 2-over 72 on Saturday to slip to 5 over and has yet to break par at Pinehurst No. 2, but he was hoping for a strong finish Sunday. He was 13 strokes behind leader Martin Kaymer and eight strokes back of Rickie Fowler and Erik Compton.
"If I hit it better and make some putts, I think I can shoot 4- or 5-under par, end around even," Lefty said, pausing before chuckling through the punchline: "Finish second again."
FITZPATRICK'S PUTTING: The tournament's only remaining amateur struggled in the third round.
Matthew Fitzpatrick opened with a bogey followed by two double bogeys Saturday, sending him to an 8-over 78 and a 12-over 222 total at Pinehurst No. 2.
The 19-year-old Englishman, set to make his pro debut next week in the Irish Open, pointed to his putting. He had 33 putts in the third round, up from 30 on Thursday and 31 on Friday.
"I didn't hole any putts of any sort," he said. "... I thought the course was probably a bit tougher, but at the same time I didn't feel like I played any worse."
GOOSEN'S OPEN FUTURE: Retief Goosen earned a 10-year exemption to play in the U.S. Open after winning his second title in 2004.
That comes to an end this year, meaning Goosen is hoping to finish high enough this weekend to secure a spot at Chambers Bay in 2015.
The top 10 and ties earn exemptions into the following year's Open.
The 45-year-old Goosen, ranked 214th in the world, finished on Saturday with his second straight 1-over 71, putting him at 5-over 215.
"I've had a good run in the U.S. Open," he said, "and if I make it into next year, great."

David Boreanaz has been the star of hit dramas before, but "SEAL Team" is different. Different because of the mental and physical requirements of his character Jason Hayes and different because of the raw stories about Navy SEALs being deployed into action and readjusting to life at home. CBS's new military drama is intense and that's one of the many reasons why it's been so well received as Wednesday night's most watched program.
Boreanaz talked with CBS Local's DJ Sixsmith about working closing with veterans, understanding the difficult plight of Navy SEALs and how playing ice hockey prepared him for the show.
DJ Sixsmith: What do you remember about your early days as an actor?
David Boreanaz: I remember living on a couch and the stress that comes along with finding yourself in Los Angeles doing odd jobs and working in local theaters, commercials and other small gigs. For me, it's kind of relevant to climbing the ropes as a Tier One guy and that is what the show "SEAL Team" is pretty much about. It's about where they start, how they get in and how they get accepted. Once they are out there leading the charge, it's an interesting plight. It's one that I can look back on in my life and relate it to where I am today and use some of those experiences to apply to my character. We have 41 veterans who work on our show and it has been an enlightening experience to learn from them every day.
DS: "SEAL Team" is averaging over 10 million viewers per episode. How would you describe your experience on the show so far?
DB: Working with these Tier One guys has been great! Their head space is so uniquely driven by controlling chaos and being calm. That's what they love. The other side of it is how they acclimate themselves back into society. We examine that character plight in our show and we understand how difficult it is and shine a light onto why they are not so accepted back into society. That's what the show is all about and the show drives on that character stuff. It's a workplace show and we examine that DNA.
DS: Veterans Day is coming up. What is the most important message you want your show to relay to the men and women who have worn the uniform and those people who have never served?
DB: That we are getting it right and taking the time to preciously look at all the moments in the scenes we are doing. Both when they are coming home and also being deployed. The back half of the season examines what it takes to leave your family and what it's like to be away from your family for six month to a year and a half and have no communication with them. It's a whole different world. CBS has allowed us to show what those characters go through. Its two shows in one. Getting into their minds has been the most exciting part. Hearing stories and applying them to those characters. Every day I learn how SEAL Team members tick. It's both enlightening and frightening at times.
DS: You've been on many shows such as "Bones" that have been successful. What are the keys to creating a hit series?
DB: It's about putting the work and the time in and finding the moments and not glossing over the little things. It's very easy to get caught up in the time that you have and how many hours you have to shoot a show. It's all about the passion and the drive that you have and getting it right with the right people.
DS: I know you are a big hockey guy. Who would you say you model your game after?
DB: I have a little bit of the aggressiveness of former Philadelphia Flyers goalie Ron Hextall. I'm not too much of a speed or finesse kind of guy. I like to go in front of the net and play like Wayne Simmonds from the Flyers. I can clean up some goals, stand in front of the goalie and cause some issues. I'm not afraid to go to the corners. I'm going all Philadelphia here as you can see, the Flyers are my favorite team. I played a lot of hockey to train for the show.
"SEAL Team" airs Wednesday nights at 9pm EST on CBS.

Though it may not come as a surprise, older men (particularly those with large bank accounts and disposable incomes), are attracting younger, very attractive women – even if it means leaving their wives behind. And though these men aren't technically dads, they spoil, pamper and indulge these young beauties – thus giving them the title, Sugar Daddies.
Celebrities aren't exempt from "robbing the cradle." With celebrities like Kelsey Grammer and Charlie Sheen making waves for their indulgent relationships with women years their junior, top sugar dating website, SugarSugar.com has compiled a list of the Top 10 Sugar Daddies of the Century. From legendary actors to billionaire moguls, these men are notorious for their lure (or lust) for youthful females.
Who do you think wins the title for Top Sugar Daddy of the Century? Cast your vote on SugarSugar.com's Sugar Baby blog here:
Hugh Hefner – The number one Sugar Daddy of all time, 84 year-old playboy Hugh Hefner has an arsenal of Sugar Babies. The mogul (and sometimes mongrel) recently popped the question to 24 year-old Crystal Harris.
Donald Trump – Affectionately known as "The Donald", but I prefer to calling him, "The Don", this billionaire is nearly 25 years older than his wife Melania Knauss-Trump. Good thing she doesn't mind the golden feathers on top!
Charlie Sheen – When you make $1.5 million an episode, you're able to splurge on things like beautiful young porn stars and lavish hotel parties with strippers. Just ask the MaSHEEN. WINNING!
Mick Jagger – World renowned for his strings of affairs, this rock legend has several children by several sugar babies-turned-baby mamas. And he still can't get no satisfaction?
Tiger Woods – Golf veteran and Sugar Dating Rookie, this super star flubbed his first Sugar Daddy experience by destroying his marriage and paying millions of dollars for it. He's learning as he goes, and plenty of Sugar Babies are happy to help.
Tiki Barber – While not ALL Sugar Daddies are unfaithful, Tiki Barber left his pregnant wife for a much younger intern at a TV station where he was employed.
William Randolph Hearst – Possibly the founding father of the Sugar Daddy movement, this media mogul openly lived with his 21 year-old mistress. Hear that? Openly…
Woody Allen – Perhaps one of the most notorious Sugar Daddies, this film icon marries his adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, giving Sugar Daddy a new (more literal) meaning.
Kelsey Grammer – This TV marvel certainly has a way with women. His engagement to 24 year-old Kate Walsh landed him an offer as SugarSugar.com spokesperson.
John F. Kennedy – Charming, rich and powerful, it has been reported that this former US President had affairs with numerous young women including White House workers, Gangsters' girlfriends, staff members, reporters, and Movie stars.

I attempted to reinstall the beta for 6.3 from a stable version running on Windows 10. When I installed it the control panel said that it was running but I could not open the web control. Nothing happened at all. The browser didn't even open.
So I uninstalled it and reinstalled the stable 6.2 version. Unfortunately, I got the same result. I then uninstalled that version.
I restored my registry and and then reinstalled the stable 6.2 version.
Now, the web control opens the browser but I get a 503 error and nothing displays.
What should I try next besides wiping the computer and starting over completely?
I have a Premium subscription.

I was sent this DVD by a PR lady to watch and review a week or two ago and I finally got round to it this week.
I love make up and hair DVD's – Japanese beauty magazines occasionally give some away for free and I have also bought some in the past – one by Alexis Vogel (LOL) and another fantastic one I will tell you about later this week.
I think that with the success of YouTube, there isn't really much need to pay for a DVD with hair and beauty tips unless it truly is something unique, unseen and completely professional.
So the DVD I was sent is called Essential Styling by Sean Hanna – an award winning hairdresser.
There were 2 DVDs in the case – one for hair cleansing and one for hair styling.Each DVD is split into three hair lengths – short, medium and long. My hair was classed in the Medium as its just below the shoulders (sob, sob to hair butchery).
The first DVD for essential cleansing (30min), is the best DVD. Going through everything step by step, it tells us how to properly cleanse the hair using shampoo and conditioner. I guess most people aren't really taught how to do a proper shampoo, we just use our noses.
What I learnt is that –
1. I use too much shampoo
2. I don't wet my head properly before adding shampoo
3. I don't step out of the stream of water to do the massage which I should be doing, but I don't like doing, cos it gets cold
4. I use too much conditioner
5. I am applying conditioner to too many places
Basically, I am doing 99% things wrong.
A few criticisms about this section –
* I totally, 100% get why what is shown on the DVD is the proper and ideal way to wash the hair, but heres the thing – it takes ages. Wash, work in, emulsify, rinse, repeat.
Perhaps it just looked slow in the DVD – it is a bit quicker to do in real life, but to be honest still time consuming when you know the combi-boiler is going to give out at any moment.
Plus I wash my hair every day, occasionally at a stretch, every other day so I am seriously not going through the long cleansing process every day.
* The model is not in a 50cm x 50 cm shower, she's in an endless expanse of space clearly, which means she can walk out in and out of the shower etc. Ok, I'm just jealous.
The good…
* I know I moaned about it, but the DVD is seriously a real eye opener anyway, well worth watching as I've picked up some tips there that I have already been using day to day. It helps to know how to cleanse properly when you have scalp problems like me.
The Styling DVD
Once again we are split into hair lengths. I watched the medium length one and it covered how to do curly hair and straight hair. (Total running time 50min)
*takes double dose of valium*
I have always said – there are 2 things I am pretty crap at – doing my nails and doing my hair. My nails because if I get the slightest smudge, it will all come off and my hair, because I don't have the time or patience to sort it out.
But even I know how to curl my hair and how to straighten it. The hair curling is doing with a hair straightener – I think a lot of us girls (not all) know how to do this anyway because GHD has been through the technique on their site as well as thousands of YouTubers.
I was expecting more than the basics – bearing in mind that this is a pay for DVD.
In my heart of hearts, I was honestly expecting one or two up-dos – I am terrible at them so including that would have changed my entire perspective on the DVD. It has to be something I can't do/wouldn't normally attempt – myself.
If I am honest – the curly hair result is too dated – not really a soft lazy-beach wave, more spirally..*takes more valium*
The DVD recommends specific products too (it clearly states they are not sponsored by any brands) which I like. They use a lot of L'oreal Kerastase.
Like I mentioned earlier I got this DVD free to review – I went to check out the price and its £15.99 from here.
Is it beautifully shot? Yes
Is it clear with its instructions? Yes
Would I pay £15.99 for the DVD? No
The best DVD by far is the hair cleansing one – I did pick up tips and learn from it and its not anything I could find on YouTube etc.
The styling DVD I would recommended for the ladies who are beginners with hair and want to learn how to do the basics or perhaps a teenager. HOWEVER – it is not something you can't find for free on You Tube.
What can I say? I think women are a lot more savvy these days, whether its hair, nails or make up. The pros are going to have to work just a little bit harder for out moolah.
Either way, this is the kind of DVD I would watch once or twice, then pass on to a friend to hopefully pick up on some tips.
You can buy it herefor £15.99 or for £7.99 if you spend £30.

- Michael Wright - member
- Laura Khalil - member
- Naomi Most - member
Consensus items:[edit]
Budget discussion, Shannon wants $15k for the buildout. We've spent $3k already. That's about what we have in the bank. Do we want to spend that and assume we can raise more? Some of the $16k pledges have come in, some have not. $9000 not rec'd according to wiki, need actual numbers from Mitch. $2500 of marked donated already should get employer matching funds too, $1750 of uncollected donations should get matched.
budget breakdown is on a google doc, linked on the wiki.
big expenses remaining are electrical, kitchen, HVAC (unknown)
propose making sure the wall for the kitchen is built with a drain (by Scott while he's there) and the electrical work, but postpone full kitchen buildout for next month or so.
HVAC contractor coming on Friday, no estimate or anything has happened yet.
we have already spent $350 on SCADA, $2365 on floor. budget is being updated as we go along.
concern that the budget is not detailed enough; pointed out that it can't be fully detailed yet.
- consense on spending $15k? No, we don't have the money, or at least we aren't sure we have it.
- consense on spending $10k? Yes, we are pretty confident we can swing that.
reading names of membership binder.

Galvanized to vote in the presidential race by Donald Trump's anti-immigration rhetoric, Latinos in California are expected to turn out in large numbers in November and have considerable influence on down-ballot races and statewide propositions.
At nearly 39% of the population, Latinos are the largest ethnic group in the state. At the polls, however, they are typically underrepresented compared with other minority groups.
But Latino voters turned out in record numbers during the 2016 primary, a good sign for general election turnout, said Mindy Romero, who runs the California Civic Engagement Project at UC Davis.

'Tis the Season
It is that time of year again, when families get together for holidays and people start Christmas shopping. It is also that time of year when a lot of stores start hiring people for seasonal work. For someone working as a Supported Employment Manager, this time of year can be both a good thing and a bad thing, just as it can for the individuals on my caseload. For many people looking for employment this time of year, it is easy to understand that seasonal work is temporary. For me, it is hard to explain to someone on my caseload that they are only working at a job for a few months and then not working again after the season is over.
Some of the other managers that work with me have individuals that do summer work at farms and golf courses, but these individuals have been doing this work for years now. They have somewhat of an understanding that their job is seasonal and after it is finished we have to find something else for them to do. For someone whose first employment is during the holidays, it is a little harder to explain to them the nature of seasonal work. One of the individuals on my caseload used to work at a well-known warehouse store, but because of budget and economy problems he had to be let go. The job developer had given this individual the opportunity to return to this store as a seasonal worker because the store loved having him there. However, this causes some complications. Although his current job is a full-time, year-round position, the individual wants to go back to the warehouse store. Fortunately, the year-round job is a contract job, so taking some time off to do seasonal work won't jeopardize that placement.
The major dilemma is that if this seasonal position keeps coming up, it may become a problem to keep pulling the individual out of the steady job to go back to this store. But who am I to tell an individual that he cannot go to job he wants to do because it is only seasonal work? That is like someone telling me I cannot go play football in the NFL because it is only a few months out of the year, even though it has always been a dream of mine. Needless to say, the individual is currently working at that warehouse store and loving every minute of it.
But what if someone does not have another job to go back to? What if you have to explain to an individual that they are not going to work after January? Rarely do stores to hire seasonal employees as full-time workers. Sometimes it happens, but not often.
I guess we just have to try to explain in a way the individual can understand that they did not do anything wrong to lose the job and that it was a temporary placement from the start. It is my job after that to find them something else to fill that time, whether it be another part-time job or job training. And it does feel good to see the individual get a paycheck, even it is only for three months out of the year.

A Lumpy Planet
So you yearn to explore strange worlds in distant galaxies, going where no Earthling has gone before? And you're feeling very depressed that for technical reasons your trip might be delayed a few centuries…or maybe forever? Well, how about visiting the world in this photo? Is it weird enough for you?
Gravity map Courtesy NASA
Surprise! It's Earth. But not as we normally see it. This image shows Earth as it is seen by instruments that are sensitive to gravity instead of light. Gravity isn't the same all over the planet. The mappers turned places where you'd feel slightly heavier into high spots and ones where you'd feel slightly lighter into lows. One of the lows is in India (the blue and pink area to the right of center). You'd weigh about a pound less if you went to India (if you weighed about 100 pounds normally).
Scientists think the gravity map reveals what's going on deep inside Earth, in the part called the mantle, where the rock is still solid but hot enough that it flows slowly. That low off of India may be linked to an ancient collision—the collision of India with Eurasia, which pushed up those wrinkles on the surface of Earth we call the Himalayas.
It just goes to show: There's no place like (or as weird as) home!
- gravity: Pulling forces between objects.
- Scientists believe that an ancient collision of the India and Eurasia might be responsible for a lower pull of gravity in that area. What does this indicate about the pull of gravity over time on the planet?
- What part of the planet do scientists believe is responsible for variations in gravity?
- Why might scientists believe that this part of the planet would be responsible for variations in gravity?

Joan has once again demonstrated her support by nominating GeniMates for the One Lovely Blog Award. I am thrilled to acceptthis award from one of my favourite genealogists. Thank you, Joan, for this gong and for your ongoing support of GeniMates.
The rules for accepting the award are:
* Accept the ward, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who granted the award and their blog link.
* Pass the award on to 15 other blogs that you've newly discovered.
* Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.
One the last two occasions I received this award I said "It seems a bit like overkill to me to pass this award on to 15 blogs so I am just going to select a few that I follow and enjoy from my RSS Feeds." I now feel a bit guilty about this so I will nominate ten blogs this time to make a total of fifteen.

Detoxing may not be sufficient for those who are making an effort to quit Xodol, Zydone or other very addictive substances. They may require ongoing treatment, support and encouragement that can be provided by top-tier inpatient rehabilitation services.

Fortunately, there are many programs to choose from in Bloomfield.

Should I Stay Local or Travel for the Best Treatment?
Seeking local treatment might seem like the best rehab option, surrounded by familiar places and close to friends and family. While this may be the most convenient route to take, there are also some significant drawbacks to be aware of. Making a "clean break" from drugs and alcohol, separating from the environments and people most associated with the addiction, often leads to the best results. The chances of relapse are diminished when you are away from home, since you are limiting your access to the substances you are trying to quit. Many rehabs are located in incredible settings, from oceanfront and lakeside facilities to picturesque desert retreats - perfect for creating the right atmosphere for feeling peaceful, keeping positive and staying healthy during, and after, your stay. So make sure you consider all your options when deciding the best place to make a fresh start.
How Much Does Addiction Treatment Cost?
Treatment prices depend on the treatment phases involved and the level of service and extras provided. The range runs from free and low-cost options that are generally state or federally funded, all the way up to very expensive treatment at facilities that give 5 star resorts a run for their money. In terms of free options, consider hosting an intervention with friends and family, along with visiting www.SAMHSA.gov which has a treatment center locator and provides listings to government-funded and very low cost alternatives.
Is Insurance Accepted?
In many cases YES. Although not every detox or rehabilitation facility will accept insurance, many do. Most of the facilities that we refer people to do accept private insurance, so give us a call today to verify what coverage you may have and we will do everything possible to help make that work for you!
How Long Does Effective Treatment Take?
Studies indicate that the success rate for recovery rises dramatically with the length of treatment. That is, the longer an individual spent in a facility treating their drug or alcohol dependencies, the less likely they were to relapse. Detox and rehab can be done in as few as 21 to 30 days, though the probability of remaining alcohol and drug-free rises dramatically as the individual passes 90 days of treatment.
For those seeking addiction treatment for themselves or a loved one, the ProjectKnow.com helpline is a private and convenient solution.
Calls to any general helpline (non-facility specific 1-8XX numbers) for your visit will be answered by American Addiction Centers (AAC).
We are standing by 24/7 to discuss your treatment options. Our representatives work solely for AAC and will discuss whether an AAC facility may be an option for you.
Our helpline is offered at no cost to you and with no obligation to enter into treatment. Neither ProjectKnow.com nor AAC receives any commission or other fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a visitor may ultimately choose.
For more information on AAC's commitment to ethical marketing and treatment practices, or to learn more about how to select a treatment provider, visit our About AAC page.
If you wish to explore additional treatment options or connect with a specific rehab center, you can browse our listings or visit SAMHSA.gov.

Mayor Coleen J. Seng and representatives of the Downtown Lincoln Association (DLA) and the Lincoln Arts Council (LAC) today announced plans to designate and develop 12th Street from "M" to "R" as a premier arts corridor celebrating the visual and performing arts. The City of Lincoln, DLA and LAC are working with 12th Street property owners, arts supporters and UNL representatives to further enhance the corridor's arts identity through more public art, outdoor performances and unique features.
"12th Street already has a concentration of arts and entertainment attractions," said Mayor Seng. "It is anchored to the north by the Lied Center, the Torn Notebook sculpture, the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery and the Howell Theatre, while the southern end is home to July Jamm and the Solar Semaphore sculpture. The new entertainment complex will further position 12th Street as an arts and entertainment destination."
To officially kick off the effort, a three-month display of up to 38 Tour de Lincoln bike sculptures will immediately follow the October 3rd bike auction at Haymarket Park. Businesses, organizations and individuals purchasing bikes will be encouraged to display them along 12th Street before moving them to permanent locations in January 2004. A limited number of permanent bike sculpture sites along 12th Street will also be available.
"Since the Tour de Lincoln bikes first appeared, Lincolnites of all ages have expressed their wish to see the bikes remain in Lincoln and be publicly displayed," said Liz Shea-McCoy, Chair of the Tour de Lincoln project and LAC President. "12th Street offers a wonderful opportunity for a large number of bike sculptures to be viewed in a single setting during a time of year when thousands of visitors are downtown for football games, the Star City Parade and other events."
In a related announcement, Kim Heald, a board member of Friends of the Center for Great Plains Studies, announced that all but $15,000 has been raised of the $180,000 needed to purchase a sculpture by George Lundeen and place it outside the Center's gallery at 12th and "Q." It is called "On the Trail of Discovery: Commemorating the Journey of Lewis and Clark, 1804-1806."
"Over the last 20 years, the Center for Great Plains Studies has housed the journals of Lewis and Clark by UNL historian Gary Moulton," said Reece Summers, Curator of the Center for Great Plains Studies. "The installation of the sculpture in 2004 will not only help to commemorate this critical event in American history, but will also provide a wonderful opportunity to help connect pedestrians to the collection contained inside the building."
The concept of 12th Street as an arts corridor first emerged in 1996, when DLA and the City began planning the development of the "P" Street MarketPlace to strengthen links between the Haymarket area and the downtown entertainment district. The idea resurfaced earlier this year in conjunction with the City's rebuilding of the 12th Street streetscape, now under way.
"Property owners along the corridor as well as arts advocates and downtown supporters loved the idea of 12th Street having a distinctive arts identity," said Jeff Cole of the City's Urban Development Department who is the project's director.
An Arts Corridor Steering Committee was appointed by Mayor Seng in June and includes representatives from a wide range of businesses, arts organizations and local foundations. The Steering Committee is chaired by Ken Hake of Security Federal, a past President of both the DLA and the LAC.
"The arts corridor concept is a wonderful example of private and public interests working together to benefit Lincoln," said Hake. "While City involvement and cooperation is needed for implementation of the effort, funding for the public art along the corridor will come from private funds."
Hake said the Steering Committee and businesses along the corridor are currently exploring a wide range of ideas and projects. "As it develops, 12th Street will hopefully be the venue for more permanent art pieces like the Lewis and Clark sculpture, more temporary displays like Tour de Lincoln, more sidewalk art like the leaves which grace the new sidewalks in front of the Arbor Day Foundation building at 12th and 'P' as well as some new art forms, such as projection art," said Hake.
Doors open at 5 p.m. for the Tour de Lincoln auction October 3 at Haymarket Park. The auction begins at 6:45 p.m. A free preview party will be held from 4:30 to 10 p.m. October 2. Those wanting to bid are encouraged to register in advance through the LAC web site at www.artscene.org. More information on the Tour de Lincoln auction and opportunities for 12th Street bike sculpture placement is available by calling (402) 890-1022.

Rory McIlroy goes Tiger hunting in Chicago this weekend with a Ryder Cup word of warning ringing in his ears from former captain Colin Montgomerie.
The world number one missed out on the $10 million FedEx bonus in Atlanta on Sunday when Brandt Snedeker drew first blood for the American team.
Snedeker warmed up for his Ryder Cup wildcard pick by winning the Tour Championship and topping the FedEx rankings, a double that earned him a massive $11.5 million windfall.
The pair are set to clash again when Europe begin the defense of their Ryder Cup in Medinah on Friday, but Monty has warned McIlroy not to take on world number two Tiger Woods in Sunday's singles on American soil.
Captain when Europe won in Wales two years ago, Monty said, "I would leave Woods well alone. Don't go anywhere near him, especially in America and playing now to a certain degree an awful lot better than he has been.
"I would want Rory to be playing someone else in the singles if you don't mind. Yes, everybody wants this to happen, but look what happened to Stephen Ames when he played Woods and was crushed at the 2006 World Match Play in California.
"Look at what happened to Francesco Molinari when he played Woods in Wales and lost."
McIlroy will be the main man for Europe in Medinah despite his failure to seal the FedEx deal in Atlanta when he did enjoy the consolation of a $3 million check for finishing second in the rankings.
After finishing the tournament in 10th place, the Ulsterman was philosophical at the end of a week that saw him confirm he is selling his multi-million dollar property near Belfast.
McIlroy said: "I have to stay positive. It's been a great year and I've had three wins starting at the PGA Championship.
"I knew if I won this week I won the whole thing, but Brandt knew the same thing and he did what he needed to do. He played fantastic out there.
"Now I have the Ryder Cup to look forward to and that is going to be something special."
Meanwhile, speaking ahead of the Atlanta tournament, McIlroy admitted that the heartfelt reaction by fans to his decision to choose the Great Britain team over the Irish team for the 2016 Olympics in Rio has led him to think deeply about his decision.
"After everything that happened last week it definitely makes me reconsider my position and reconsider a lot of things. I think it just really hit home with me how important it is for a lot of people and how important my success has been to them," McIlroy said.
"Obviously, I've had a lot of support from all sides — from people that call themselves Irish, from Northern Irish, to the whole of the U.K., to people over here in the States. It just hit home with me at how my success is welcomed by everyone."
McIlroy went on to insist that his decision was by no means final and that he has plenty of time to think about his decision before the Olympics in 2016. He added that choosing one team over another would be difficult as he does not want to detach himself from any group of people who support his game.
He continued, "It would be terrible for me to nearly segregate myself from one of those group that supports me so much.
"It's four years away — I still have a bit of time to decide. But, I'm very, very appreciative and very grateful of the support that I get from everyone. It's great that I get so much support. There are not many people in my position that have to go through what I might have to go through in four years' time, but it is what it is.
"I'm a golfer first and foremost and I just want to play well on the golf course. Hopefully people enjoy that and the entertainment that that brings."

Asked by Bobby, Florida
My son is 10 and while he was home sick with a sinus/cold, he came out of the bathroom and looked very scared and sad. Later he told me he feels like a voice is telling him to take a knife and stab himself. He told me he would never do it because he is strong enough to overcome it. The only medication I gave him today was Sudafed PE and Advil -- two each. He is a sweet, intelligent, funny child. Can this be serious?
Mental Health Expert
Dr. Charles Raison
Emory University Medical School
Dear Bobby,
As often happens, I find myself having to tell you that I have no definitive answer to your question; first because no one can read the future with certainty and second because I don't know enough about your son's situation to make an educated guess. Given these constraints, let me talk to you in general about things that would make me feel more or less worried about the episode you describe.
It is not uncommon for children to report an isolated episode of hearing a voice or having a strange idea. I say this based on a discussion of the issue with several leaders in the field of child psychiatry. The content of the voice your son heard is a little more worrisome because it is violent. It worries me because I don't want him to do anything to hurt himself, and it worries me because encouraging self-harm is one of the most common things that genuine psychotic "voices" tell people.
If the episode is isolated and nothing else happens, I don't think you have much to worry about. The fact that you had given him medicine that can affect mental functioning (Sudafed in this case) is also encouraging, because that might be an explanation for his experience.
Here are things that would make me worry more. If there is a history of psychosis in your family, I would be more concerned about your son's experience. Most people with psychosis are diagnosed as either schizophrenic or bipolar, so if either of these runs extensively in your son's close blood relatives, I'd be more concerned. If your son has repeated episodes of reporting a voice or having other strange experiences, my level of concern would go way up. If your son is beginning to demonstrate other odd behaviors or is withdrawing from people, I'd also worry.
So, if any of these risk factors is relevant to your son's situation, I'd take him to a child psychiatrist for an evaluation. If, on the other hand, his experience is isolated and all is well otherwise, I wouldn't make a big deal out of it -- especially given the Sudafed exposure. I'd just reassure your son and tell him to let you know if anything like that ever happens again. If he has a second episode, I'd take him for professional help, just to be on the safe side.
Next question:
Could emotional withdrawal be side effect of new med?

Ago of intellectuals, authors, artists and actors occupied the ministry of culture in Zamalek as an escalation for their demand to dismiss the minister of culture Alaa Abdel Aziz. Now every night at the HQ of the ministry in Zamalek artists present shows for the people in the small street. Of course these intellectuals and artists are being attacked day and night by MB's supporters and allies.
Last night the artists presented parts of Ballet Zorba in the street.
Here is a video clip for the show from Ahram Online
Amazingly hundreds go and watch these daily shows in solidarity with the artists. I believe this is the richest culturally sit in we had since Tahrir sit in July 2011 when we used to have concerts , Tweet Nadwas and Tahrir Cinema.

Enter the Wu-Chang Clan
Apropos of almost* nothing, I give you this: David Chang is the RZA of chefs, and Momofuku is his Wu-Tang Clan.
Chang leads a crew of like-minded foodslingers, each of which he wants to help make a star in his own right. Hip-hop mastermind RZA did the same with the Wu, helping O.D.B., Ghostface, Method Man, Raekwon, etc., spin off successful solo careers.
Not buyin' it? Consider the evidence.
First this, from a recent New York magazine profile:
With the burrito profits he hopes to rake in, Chang plans to spin off more Asian-burrito bars, all in the service of bankrolling the ambitious efforts of his talented colleagueswho otherwise couldn't afford to open their own restaurantsin a revolutionary kind of culinary collective. "It's too hard to open up a restaurant now, even if you're really talented," says Chang, who plans to make his chefs and managers co-owners. "I believe it's got to be more of a group effort. By doing this, we can attract more talent and change the way things are done."
And then this, from the Wu-Tang's own website:
The 9 members of the Wu-Tang Clan have each released solo albums, as well as performing under several subprojects with other Wu-Tang members, and others outside the Clan. This was the plan from the group's inception; the group would make them each famous enough to launch multiple side projects, and take over the hip-hop community through saturation of like-minded rappers. Though there was some difficulty in finding a record label that would sign the Wu-Tang Clan while still allowing each member to record solo albums with other labels, Loud/RCA finally agreed and the debut album, Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers, was a popular and critically acclaimed album, though it took some time to gain momentum.
The last sentence of the Wu-Tang material also mirrors the way Chang's own fledgling empire faced an early lack of momentum when the burritos didn't sell as well as planned. (A menu shift and James Beard award have since reinvigorated Chang's Ssäm Bar.)
Also: Vegas is to Chang as Hollywood is to RZA?
Only time will tell if Chang's collective will spin off other stars. Just don't ask me who the O.D.B. of the Wu-Chang Clan would be.
* "Almost" nothing because all my Serious Eats colleagues do is blab about David Chang and Momofuku all day long.

USA Continues Domination with 2-1 Victory Over Mexico to Lift Fourth Overall CONCACAF Gold Cup Trophy
CHICAGO (June 24, 2007) — The U.S. Men's National Team continued their domination of Mexico with a sterling, come-from-behind 2-1 masterpiece to claim their fourth all-time CONCACAF Gold Cup championship. Despite a 1-0 halftime deficit, a confident and powerful U.S. team dominated Mexico in the second half, behind goals from Landon Donovan and Benny Feilhaber, while also twice hitting the post.
In addition to laying claim to their third regional crown since 2002, the victory in the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup paves the way for the USA's invaluable participation in the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup, an eight-team tournament being staged in South Africa one year before the 2010 World Cup.
"This is the kind of effort on the inside of our team that we keep talking about," said U.S. head coach Bob Bradley after extending his record with the United States to 10-0-1 since taking over at the start of the year. "(It is) a result that didn't come easy. A result where we had to come from behind. A result that comes from the effort of our entire group. We are proud of defending the Gold Cup championship and keeping the trophy in the United States."
The second half began with another savvy tactical move from Bradley, who brought Ricardo Clark on for tournament standout Pablo Mastroeni to help the U.S. midfield cover more ground across the field. Clark's impact was felt immediately and helped unify a backline that had been a bit unsettled in the first half.
The USA's first goal came on a nice build-up from the U.S., who seamlessly moved the ball from the left to right flank at the midfield stripe through DaMarcus Beasley, setting up Jonathan Spector to send a perfect cross into the area for Brian Ching. The Hawaiian forward controlled the ball well, spun around his marker and was setting up for a chance on goal when Jonny Magallon clipped his legs from behind, setting up an easy penalty call for Guatemalan referee Carlos Batres.
"Chingy made a great play to get the penalty," said Donovan after the game. "He's in there to do that. He's tough to play against. He used his body well, and the guy had no choice but to foul him."
As he has done throughout the tournament, Donovan stepped up and drained the spot kick, the fourth consecutive game in which the forward scored on a penalty kick. For Donovan, the goal was a historic one in many ways, tying him for the USA' all-time goal-scoring lead with Eric Wynalda at 34 and also tying the all-time Gold Cup goal-scoring record with Mexico's Luis Robert Alves with 12.
"I'm proud of it certainly," said Donovan about tying Wynalda's record. "I'm more happy we won the game, but when I sit down tonight and think about it, it will be awesome. But now I want to get the next one in."
With the game now tied, the U.S. continued their inspired play in the second half, eventually leading to a game-winning goal that will surely go down as one of the greatest in U.S. Soccer history. Mexico was beginning to feel the pressure from the U.S. again when a dangerous cross from Jonathan Bornstein earned the USA a corner kick in the 72nd minute. As Donovan's corner kick slid into the area, it was headed out by the Mexican defense, falling to the top of the area where Feilhaber hit a one-time, full-volley blast out of the air and into the upper left corner past a helpless Oswaldo Sanchez.
"The first thing I was thinking of when the ball was coming in the air was that I'd had a couple of shots in the El Salvador game that were the same as that one," said Feilhaber, who scored for the second time in seven appearances. "I was just looking to get good contact on the ball and send it toward the goal. I knew as soon as I hit it that it was going in. It felt great."
With the U.S. ahead 2-1, Mexico began to crumble under the pressure of trying to end their decade-long losing streak against the USA in the United States. Their efforts were to no avail, as the U.S. created two more scoring chances that were stopped by the woodwork, but ultimately didn't help the Mexicans overcome their nemesis. The first shot off the post came in the 76th minute, when the ever-active Ching spun on Magallon in the penalty area again, stepped around Sanchez, and then hit an off-balance shot at an empty net that bounced off the right post as he was falling backwards.
In the 89th minute, a patented late-game burst from Donovan saw a two-on-none breakaway end with DaMarcus Beasley banging his empty net shot off the cross bar.
Those two misses were ultimately not a factor, but could have been if not for a world class save from Tim Howard on Mexican substitute Adolfo Bautista in the 89th minute just seconds before Beasley's miss. On the sequence, Nery Castillo dribbled into the penalty area and hit a shot that ricocheted to Bautista eight yards in front of the goal. Bautista had time to take a touch, but his hard shot was pushed over the bar by Howard with two hands.
"I'm still in shock you know," said Howard about his late heroics. "It's just one of those things where you practice all the time, and sometimes it comes off for you. I saw the ball break through and I tried my best and today it was good enough. It's one I'll remember forever. Sometimes the team needs you to come up with a big save, and you know you can make a difference. I was elated."
The USA is now 8-0-1 in nine home games against Mexico this decade, outscoring their rival 15-1. Mexico's goal in this match did manage to end their goalless streak in the U.S. at 797 minutes across 10 games. Since 1990, the U.S. is 12-7-7 in 26 games against Mexico, which includes a dominating 11-3-5 record in the United States (and a 1-0-1 record in neutral venues). The victory also marked the first time the U.S. had ever come-from-behind to defeat their arch-rivals.
In another USA milestone, for the first time ever, the U.S. went a perfect 6-0 in the tournament, improving their all-time Gold Cup record to an impressive 34-4-5. The U.S. outscored their opponents 13-3 across their 2007 tournament run.
The U.S. team departs on Monday for Venezuela, just three days in advance of the 2007 Copa America, the regional championship of South America. The 12-team tournament will run from June 26 to July 15 in nine cities across Venezuela. The U.S. has been drawn into Group C along with Argentina, Paraguay and Colombia. The U.S. will open the tournament against Argentina on Thursday, June 28 at Estadio Jose "Pachencho" Romero in Maracaibo. The U.S. will then face Paraguay on July 2 at Estadio Agustin Tovar "La Carolina" in Barinas, before finishing group play against Colombia on July 5 at Estadio Metropolitano de Futbol de Lara in Barquisimeto.
For the United States, the appearance will mark their third entrance into CONMEBOL's signature event. The last time the U.S. competed in the tournament in 1995, the team upset defending champion Argentina, 3-0, to advance to the quarterfinals where they defeated Mexico and eventually finished in fourth place.

Theron Neel is a one man horror show. He is a chronic liar, manipulator, cheater, has abused his pet dog, cheated on his wife for the entire duration of their marriage, and is guilty of plagiarism. He emotionally preys on women he meets online and was e-friends with a 14 year old girl that included emails, texts, and exchanging pictures. Would you want a middle aged man having an "online friendship" with your younger sister or daughter? He lies about his marital status and availability and convinces them that he has genuine interest and feelings for them in an effort to gain favors. He creates an image of being a supporter of women in arts when in truth he treats many women like trash. http://theronsweboflies.wordpress.com/

A kitchen pantry storage cabinet is a storage cabinet you need to put all of your cooking utensils and some of your food. Without this cabinet, you will not be able to use the room maximally. There are some of the rooms that are not being used well without
kitchen cabinets
. By using a cabinet, you can more room because the carpenter create some room by dividing the big room to smaller one so at the time you want to put smaller things, you can maximally put them in the cabinet. Choosing a kitchen pantry storage cabinet makes you need to consider the room that you have. You have to make sure that the cabinet is fit in the room because although you purchase the most expensive cabinet, if you cannot put it in your pantry, that expensive cabinet is not useful for you. Besides of that, you will need to consider the cabinet color because you will need to purchase the cabinet that match the color of the things in your house to make your
house interior beautiful
. The other thing that you need consider is the cabinet will have enough room for all of your cooking utensils. Although you can get the
bestkitchen pantry
storage cabinet, you will have to consider your budget. Without considering your budget, you can have no money to pay. If you cannot afford the best one, just choose the cabinet that can help you, not the best. You do not have to get the best if you cannot afford to pay because storage cabinet is storage cabinet, the most important thing is the cabinet can be used to put the utensil that you have in your kitchen. No special things you can get from a cabinet besides of its ability to keep things.

Difference between revisions of "Metric and Imperial equivalents"
Revision as of 23:07, 21 May 2009
This article is a travel topic
Most countries in the world now use the metric system. Almost the only holdouts are the USA and the United Kingdom which, oddly enough, still use the old British Imperial system of weights and measures. The only units the two systems have in common are time units from second to century.
We use "=" signs below, but all are approximate.
For those who are not used to Metric thermometers, there are a few ways to think about it...
Option 1: From Metric (Celsius) to Fahrenheit, double the number and add 30. From Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 30 and divide in half. This is not exact and it won't work for much higher or lower temps, but it will be close enough to understand what the temperature is.
Option 2: A nice little poem to remember for Celsius... Zero is freezing 10 is not 20 is warm and 30 is hot
Option 3: For the mathematically inclined: Fahrenheit=(C*1.8)+32. Celsius=(F-32)/1.8
Length and distance
For China, the jing is almost exactly 500 grams.
Surface area
For small things, one might use square inches or square centimeters. There are about 6.5 cm2 to one in2.
For floor area of an apartment, there are about 11 square feet to the square meter.
For large areas, there are about 2.5 acres to the hectare.
The standard metric unit of volume is the litre. Many things, however, are measured in ml (millilitres) or equivalently in cc (cubic centimetres). Roughly, a teaspoon is 5 cc and a fluid ounce is 30 cc.
In both the US and Imperial systems, 4 quarts = 1 gallon and 2 pints = 1 quart. However, the US units are smaller than Imperial counterparts. A US quart is 32 fuid ounces while Imperial is 40; a liter is in between at 35. A US gallon is 128 ounces or 3.78 litres, while an Imperial gallon is 160 ounces or 4.54 litres.
For car and motorcycle engines, displacement might be given in cc or litres or cubic inches. 1000 cc or one litre is 61 cubic inches.
Metric prefixes
1 mm = 1 / 1000 metres, 1 mg = 1 / 1000 g, 1 mL = 1 / 1000 Litres.
1 cm = 1 / 100 metres.
1 km = 1000 metres, 1 kg = 1000 grams.

It sounds unlikely: A 29-year-old two-time Pro Bowl quarterback is openly begging for another chance in the NFL, and all 32 NFL teams are saying, "No. thanks." But that's exactly the situation Vince Young is in right now.
Young, who has been a free agent since the Bills cut him during the preseason, said in an interview with ESPN for Sunday's Outside the Lines that he just wants some team to consider him, and any team that does will find out that he's willing to put in all the necessary work.
"I made some mistakes. And when you have the type of mistakes that I have, being quarterback in the NFL, it can ruin your career. So right now, I'm trying to fight hard to give it another go, another shot," Young said.
Part of the reason that Young so badly wants to get back into the NFL is that he needs the money: Despite making tens of millions of dollars from the Titans as the third overall pick in the 2006 draft (before the NFL dramatically reduced the money teams pay to highly drafted rookies), Young has reportedly gone broke. Young is suing a former agent whom he accuses of defrauding him out of money, and a financial adviser Young hired told Outside the Lines that Young's personal financial situation is "shocking." (And not as in, "It's shocking how responsibly this young man has invested his millions.)
But it's fair to wonder if any team will ever give him that shot. Much like Tim Tebow, Young can be effective in certain situations but isn't a great fit in most NFL offenses. And unlike Tebow, Young's work ethic has often been called into question.
If Young says and does all the right things and shows a willingness to work hard for whatever team will take him, there's a reasonably good chance he'll get an opportunity with another team this offseason. But there's also a good chance that opportunity will end the same way Young's opportunity with the Bills ended: With Young unemployed.

Exclusion, Gender and Education: Case Studies from the Developing World
Maureen Lewis & Marlaine Lockheed, eds.
Author/Publisher: Center for Global Development
Language: English
Download: PDF
In 2006, the Center for Global Development published Inexcusable Absence: Why 60 Million Girls Still Aren't In School and What to Do About It, a book by CGD visiting fellows Maureen Lewis and Marlaine Lockheed, which illuminates this simple but stunning fact: three-quarters of girls who are not attending school around the world are members of groups that are socially marginal or excluded in the country where they live. That book set out practical approaches to address the problem, including cash grants to families to increase the demand for schooling in social groups where demand is low, anti-discrimination programs, and special efforts to improve the quality and outreach of schools in marginalized communities.
This new book, edited by Lewis and Lockheed, includes the more detailed technical analysis and the country case studies on which much of Inexcusable Absence is based. The technical analysis addresses the role of ethnic and linguistic heterogeneity in explaining differences across countries in school enrollment. Case studies cover heterogeneous countriesLaos (Hmong Hill Tribes), China (ethnic minorities), Pakistan (Balouchi and other isolated tribes in outlying provinces), India (scheduled castes and scheduled tribes), and Guatemala (indigenous groups)where girls from minority groups are especially disadvantaged; and homogenous countriesBangladesh and Tunisiawhere girls are on a par with boys, and where both NGO and government programs have successfully changed attitudes and behavior surrounding girls' education with the result that both countries have reached parity in education.

Let us pray…
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.
