Tony Watson scored 14 points and continued to shoot it well from long range as the senior guard nailed three three-pointers. Auraum Nuiriankh notched his third double-double of the season with 10 points and 10 rebounds.
A three-pointer by Jarryn Skeete broke a 12-all tie with 12:41 left in the first half to give the Bulls the lead for good. However, a gutty performance by the Huskies prevented UB from pulling away.
Watson hit an acrobatic layup while being fouled with just one second remaining in the half. His free throw gave the Bulls a 31-27 lead at the break. The Bulls held a halftime advantage despite Northern Illinois shooting 61 percent from the field in the first half.
It was a steady dose of McCrea to start the second half as the UB big man scored the first six points to extend the Bulls' lead to 37-27. The UB lead would hover around eight for much of the second half before the Huskies made a run.
With UB leading, 52-41, with 4:27 left, Northern Illinois went on a 7-0 scoring run to cut the Buffalo advantage to 52-48 with 1:59 on the clock. A pair of Nuiriankh free throws and a Will Regan layup extended the UB lead to 56-48 with 49 seconds left.
However, the Bulls converted just one of their next six free throws and suddenly the Huskies trailed just 57-54 with 22 seconds left. But Abdel Nader's three-point attempt to tie the game with nine seconds left was off the mark and Nuiriankh skied for the rebound to seal the win for the Bulls.
"We knew Northern Illinois was a gritty, grind-it-out team and they were that way today," head coach Reggie Witherspoon said. "They were going to force us to have to grind with them and it's good to be on the winning side. We have a lot of things to work on, but it's good to be on the winning side of it."
Buffalo (9-15, 4-6 MAC) shot just 38 percent from the field, but did pull down 12 offensive rebounds and outscored the Huskies, 13-2, in second chance points.
Regan had nine points, Skeete had six and Cameron Downing finished with four points to round out UB's scoring.
The Bulls will remain at home and host Toledo on Wednesday night at 7 pm at Alumni Arena.

ROCKINGHAM — Even though he was more than 1,200 miles away, Alex Norton was representing Richmond Senior High School on the gridiron one final time.
Norton was a member of the U.S. Under-18 National football team which battled Team Canada Wednesday night during International Bowl week in Austin, Texas.
"It was a very good experience," Norton said after returning to Richmond County. "The team bonded really quickly."
The squad, which was made up mainly with sophomores, juniors and a handful of seniors, rallied for a 29-14 victory at Kelly Reeves Athletic Complex. Norton played right tackle in the contest and helped open holes for the U.S. rushing attack. The team ran for 263 yards, led by Brandon Monroe, who inked a letter of intent to play at San Jose State on National Signing Day.
Monroe finished the night with 238 yards on 32 carries and three touchdowns behind an offensive line directed by Richmond coach Paul Hoggard. For his efforts, Monroe garnered U.S. Player of the Game honors.
"Coach (Chris Metzger from Pinecrest) told me in the third quarter that I'd be carrying the ball a lot more, and just said, 'All right. I'll do it,'" Monroe said. "The offensive line did a great job. The tight ends and wide receivers were making blocks downfield. The whole team really deserved the award."
Norton, who committed to the Air Force Academy after visiting the campus last month, made it official with his signature on his letter of intent during a ceremony the day of the game. He wasn't the only future Falcon at the event because Aubry Beal, a member of the U-19 team, will also be headed to Colorado Springs in the fall.
"I thought it was pretty cool to represent my country after I signed with Air Force," Norton said. "I didn't get a chance to talk to him (Beal) because he went back to his high school to sign. I got to talk to his parents, but I will look him up on Facebook and get in touch with him."

- Is the election board reimbursing the district (and thus, us the tax payers) for the costs associated with closing of the schools, when the principal reason for the schools is teaching our kids, not having a place to vote?
This question was not addressed by Rockwood School District Chief Communications Officer Kim Cranston. Responses to other questions follow. - What is the cost to the district (and thus us, the tax payers) in the schools being closed?
"Rockwood students have a school calendar consisting of 180 school days. This day is not one of the 180 days. There are other days students don't attend school, such as Martin Luther King or Labor Day. These holidays also are not included in the count of 180 student days." - For those parents who work and will not be at home during the day, will alternative arrangements be made to care for the kids that otherwise would have been in school?
"Holiday Adventure Club provides a full day of care (6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.) on many of the district holidays, such as Election Day. The children will participate in a fun-filled day of special activities in a well-supervised environment. Children are provided a morning and afternoon snack but must bring a sack lunch. Please refer to the district website for more information. - Will district employees, now who will have the day off, be allowed to pass out literature, brochures, outside of the polling places promoting their candidates and causes?
"Per Board Regulation 0380: Employees may distribute campaign literature, work at the polls, telephone prospective voters, assist with mailings, and otherwise participate in the political process as permitted by law, so long as employees engage in such activities outside of working hours." - Have the teacher's unions endorsed candidates, causes, that they will have district employees passing out literature at polling places for?
This question should be directed to Suzanne Dotta, RNEA president.
Editor's Note: Dotta's contact information is firstname.lastname@example.com 636-394-7777, extension 105.

The schools go to great efforts to keep the premises safe and secure during school days. Sadly, this is necessary due to individuals who may be criminals, may wish to harm/abduct children, or participate in other nefarious activities. If the school is used as a polling place on election day, the doors are open and literally anyone/everyone is allowed to walk in the doors. As a mother of two elementary school age children, I am glad the school they attend will not be open tomorrow in what seems to be quite a contentious election.

Thank you, Becky H, for that personal perspective. I know in the past, hectic/more dangerous school parking lots for days such as this, also have been questioned by parents.
Jim Descher

I agree with Becky. On a related note, I think Election Day should be a national holiday and have plenty of absentee ballot days to accommodate people who cannot usually vote on Tuesdays. The military, restaurant workers, police, firemen, retail workers, etc would all benefit from this move!
2:00 pm on Monday, November 5, 2012
I do think that the schools should be closed on voting day. If a school is used as a polling place there are far too many individuals in the school. It is too much chaos. I am the mother of two small children and I would be nervous having my child attend a polling school on voting day.
Debra Rogers
2:45 pm on Monday, November 5, 2012
Yes, they absolutely should be closed -- It's safer for everyone. After working in healthcare administration for 20 years, I made a career change to teaching (part-time)... And I will be a poll worker for the first time this year (doing it more to learn about the process & for community service than for the $150 for 15+ hours I'm required to be at the polls -- they do not change staff after 8 hours!). The polling staff does not include a "security" person to keep an eye on the facility. So as a Teacher, I firmly believe it's best to close the school to focus on facilitating the voting process. Schools are public facilities, owned by the taxpayers so it makes perfect sense to use them for such a basic individual right of voting.
KM Kramer

I am sorry, but it does not make perfect sense to me to close schools so as to have a place to vote. Schools are for teaching our children - THAT should be the first priority. Yes, security at the schools with strangers coming and going is an issue - but one easily resolved - have the voting place somewhere else.
KM Kramer

Rockwood did a great job (again) of dancing around the issue of costs, and being accountable for our tax dollars. What is the purpose of the District and the schools - provide an occasional voting place, or do the best job possible of teaching our children in the most cost effective way possible? Security is an issue at the schools on voting days, and all more the reason the schools should not be used as polling places. The District is quick to charge outside groups to use the facilities - why shouldn't the Election Board pay at least the costs associated with closing the schools? There are plenty of other places that could be used for voting - libraries, city halls, police stations, fire houses - even renting a vacant store front in a shopping center for a day would be more cost effective than closing all the schools in the District. Let's get our priorities straight and stay focused on teaching our children.

KM Kramer~. Where do you suggest?? We, the people, are the givernment. If you have solutions, speak up and get involved in the process. It's always easier to throw darts and put things down after the fact -- being involved in the process is where effort is required. You seriously can't take responsibility for your children for one day?
Grow up and quit relying on others to carry your weight.
KM Kramer
4:34 pm on Monday, November 5, 2012
Debra- Well, I hope you don't drink as much caffeine tomorrow or those going to your polling place will really be in for a hard time! I am glad you have gotten involved in the process and am working at the polls - for me, I have been involved in Rockwood and Chesterfield for over 20 years - pushing for strong, responsible and fiscally sound government. Having served on Rockwood Committees I can tell you this is not the first time this issue has come up, and only through open, sensible dialog can a consensus be reached as to what direction the Rockwood Board should take in the future. With a free, open press one should be able to speak and voice their opinions, without worrying they may be bullied or intimidated by someone who dislikes their point of view.
As to my children, both are now grown, after having attended Rockwood pre-K through 12th grade. There are, however, others in the District that work and now must find other means to see that their children are taken care of for the day.

**As RSD explained, kids are not missing a day of instruction (they're receiving all 180 days). Take them to the polls with you, they're allowed to go with you, and teach them the importance of voting.
Becky H
4:24 pm on Monday, November 5, 2012
I believe that schools only receive state and federal monies based on the head count of the days that they are actually in school. I would love if someone with more knowledge regarding this would chime in. Rockwood had the foresight to adjust their calendar to not include the Presidential election day as one of their 180 school days per year, and allow the voters who live nearby to have to the school facilities as a polling place. I am guessing that the costs associated with this are equal to other times when the school is not in use, like during winter, spring, and summer break. The school that my children attend is ranked #51 out of 1051 elementary schools in Missouri. I think Rockwood is doing a fine job educating my children. If you want to look up your school, go to schooldigger.com.
5:50 pm on Monday, November 5, 2012
No way. They were not when most of us were growing up and they shouldn't be closed now. The sooner our youth are exposed to the responsibilities of voting, the better. Have extra security on the premises and teachers should discuss the process with their students. If we teach them civic responsibility from the beginning, it will sink in and be remembered.
Jo Beck

We vote at LaSalle Springs Middle School. The voters are directed to one of the side doors and have no contact with students or staff. I agree with FedUpVet. Kids should be exposed to voting.
Becky H

Unfortunately, not all schools are set up in such a way that separate entrances can be used. And it is a sad statement on society that we have to consider things like school shootings, pedophiles, and other acts against innocent people. But we do--no one is given admittance into the school without being cleared by the office staff via cameras/door buzzers. The schools are on lockdown during regular hours. I agree that children should be exposed to voting, and mine will be going with me to the polling place tomorrow. My kids also participated in the Kids Voting program. My 4th grader actually made a video with her whole class about the importance of voting. Check it out: http://www.rockwood.k12.mo.us/news/Pages/10252012ElectionDay2012.aspx

Rays sign former Indians pitcher Roberto Hernandez
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — The Tampa Bay Rays signed right-hander Roberto Hernandez, the pitcher formerly known as Fausto Carmona.
The one-year deal announced Tuesday is worth $3.25 million.
The 32-year-old Hernandez has pitched seven years in the majors, all with the Indians. He was 0-3 with a 7.53 ERA last season.
Hernandez was arrested last winter in the Dominican Republic on false identity charges. They were dropped after he completed a work program. Major League Baseball later suspended him for three weeks. Hernandez sprained his right ankle in August and missed the rest of the year.
Hernandez is 53-69 with a 4.64 ERA in the majors. He was 19-8 with a 3.06 ERA in 2007 when Cleveland last made the playoffs.
Hernandez can earn performance bonuses with Tampa Bay as both a starter and reliever.

Smoke alarm safety
Updated: November 5, 2012
They say it's the perfect time to make sure everything is working. Riverton Fire Chief Louie Rogers says everyone needs to have one. Reports show having a smoke alarm cuts the risk of dying in half.
He says they see too many fires where it could've been prevented. And don't forget to check your carbon monoxide detectors too.

The more I think of it the more I want Cleveland to win. It'll provide me with entertainment when I listen to Boston radio. The talk show guys will be able to finally quit whining about Spygate and start whining about the Celts. Besides, we get HCA if Cleveland wins and the Pistons have played well at home for the most part.
Clev is shooting horribly but bos is not able to build a decent lead. This bos is not confident team anymore: hesitating shots and lots of turning over
So far this looks like a redux of some of last years ecf games. Defensive, ugly, a lot of TO's and missed shots, refs calling it to tight. It's anybody game...although Celtics lucky Rondo is playing and lucky that la bron is only 1-6 shooting. Only two qtrs in the book, but it looks like 6 or 7 to me unless one team breaks out. With Celtics woes on the road, they better make sure they win a home game or they may be watching the ECF on their big screen Tv's with the Sixers, Mavs, Wizards, Suns, etc.
Erh... TheBron is playing like somebody has injected him some morphine before the game. He almost has more fouls than points, he is shooting 1-10. Wait, before I continue I have here a friend that wants to say something: "I've told you all he is overrateeeeeeeeeeeed!!" ============= Come on, Pierce is playing D on him, whats going on? If the Cavs do go to the ECF, Tay should learn from whatever they're doing (I know im talking a little bit too early, but its still useful).It makes me think that if LeBron turns on, the Cavs have way more chances to beat them.
TNT guys are talking about whether to double Garnett or not.... meanwhile Wallace keeps doubling off of him. what?
Ugly game. Credit to KG for hitting big shots in the last minute, but wow, could LeBron have choked any worse?
I know percentages say you go with your superstar, but in this case, 2-18 and 10 turnovers for lebron, you may have been better to give the shots to someone else. KG was earning his 3rd place MVP honors, but the unsung hero of this game may have been late season pickup Sam cassell. Two threes in the third qtr and 8 of the Celtics points in what had to have been most dreadful third qtr in playoff history. Reminds me of a Celtic-Piston playoff game back in 87 or 88 when the the final score was 63-60 or something like that. As bad a game as Labron had he was one assist and one rebound away from a quadruple double. (including 10 TO's). He took to many shots instead of passing off to the open man. Even when he took the ball to the rim, he tried to many reverse layups instead of the dunks he threw down on us last year. I think the last time Ray allen hit a jumper was the last game of the regular season. Even as bad as these guys played, I think the refs took some of the game away from the cavs with so many ticky-tac fouls. No way the Celtics should win this game commiting 23 TO's. This does not look good for the rest of the series or the next round for whatever teams get in the ECF. It goes back to the previous rounds with the physical mini-fights between the Wiz-Cavs and Celtics-Hawks. I guess the league decided that they did want to let it get out of hand and called it close.
Boston improves turnover rate and Bron improves shooting percentage. Means same score for next game........and same winner.
Not only was that game coma-inducing, but it was like some alternate reality. Lebron looked like it was his 1st year in the league. Whatever BOS was doing defensively, i hope the Pistons were watching just in case. Garnett was being clutch. Allen looked like Wally. Wally at times looked like Allen. Why was Joe Smith on Garnett that last possession when Ben was doing a good job on his post-ups ? Why were they doubling off Garnett ? Who were they doubling anyway ? A big flaw in CLE is they have no one that can punish Cassell on the defensive end in terms of guards so he's just aloud to hang out, make a shot if he likes, check out the view . . . I don't know if this game bodes well for BOS (no production from Allen/Pierce) or CLE (Lebron playing like that and having a chance to win).
You forgot about Lebron reducing his turnovers also...he had 10 of the Cavs 17. This could be the long series we were hoping for.
yep celtics would possibly play 14 games before getting to the ECF and the Cavs a possible 13. We need to take care of business in 5 and have at least 3 days rest before the ECF starts. If one of them has expended all of their energy, then we take them down in five and be prepared for a run and gun western foe. Oops, there I go thinking to far ahead...hopefully the guys that work at the palace aren't thinking the same.
Cleveland could be dangerous. This was an awful game for Lebron and they still could have won it if his point blank finger roll wouldn't have popped out (and he would have gotten a phantom foul call like usual). He could have gone 3-15, had 10 turnovers, and still got the W on the road against the team with the best record in the NBA.

HARPS: Each Eisteddfod Winner will receive a Golden Harp with the date and competition marked on it to put in their signatures. These Golden Harps may be kept as long as the winner likes, adding new harps for each competition, but only one harp per competition regardless of the number of categories entered or won (limited by standard signature rules for number of lines and graphics).
Each Entrant will receive a Silver Harp, valid only until the call for submissions goes out for the next Eisteddfod. To keep your silver harp, you must continue to enter each successive Eisteddfod. If you don't remove your harp at the beginning of the competition, it will magically disappear (or get tarnished and rusty).

"It's a lemon"
Having a Lennox XP-19 installed October 2007 is the single biggest mistake I ever made. As I write this I have no heat again. There have been 12 service calls so far, tomorrow will be number 13. The dealer keeps replacing parts, but the unit dies when the weather gets cold enought to call for unit to defrost. Lennox is no help, so I have contacted a lawyer to assist. NO NOT BUY LENNOX!

"home owner"
Have had Lennox HSXA19, 4 ton unit (seer 16) since 3-05 with a split Lennox 2 stage gas furnace. Had much experience in past life repairing many different AC units. I spent the entire installation time with the two installers since I had some unusual installation requirements (they did not really like this). with the exception of a couple installation problems, I have been very satisfied over 5 years of experience. The only problems I had was a cracked plastic fitting at exp valve which caused a very small gas/oil leak exp. valve (replace under warranty) and improper set up on recirc. fan motor speed board. The unit has easily exceeded all performance expectations. It reduced summer bills by 20-30 $ per month. It runs mostly in the 1st stage (about 60% capacity). The winter performance is excellent due to the two stage heating. Now on to some comments about the other opinions that are in this review thread. Lennox makes very few of the major components which make up their equipment outside of sheet metal and coils. All manufactures that use scroll compressors have only one source - Copeland. All valves and other components come from various manufactures. Herein lies the problem for Lennox (and others). Lennox, Trane and all others buy the these components from many different manufactures. They are always changing from one to another looking for the lowest price. All AC manufactures go thru cycle of changing suppliers for things and suffer the consequences of the cheapest piece of junk and then paying with negative threads like this one. It may be likely that Trane, Lennox and others may use the same exp valve. within the same year you may find that any one of the same manufactures may switch exp valves or reversing valve suppliers. On the use of suction accumlator. I believe that many AC manufactures that use scroll comps overestimate the slugging capability of this comp. Many manufactures avoid their use since the scroll if far more (claimed) forgiving to slugging. There was one responder who claimed his model did not use hi or lo pressure switches. I have seen this from all manufactures at different years. This is serious omission in my view. More comments on the installation experience. I had two guys, one on furnace/expansion coil change and one on condensing unit. The guy on the furnace change out was old experience hand and the kid on condensing unit was very green. I had to mentor him thru running gas lines and brazing technique. I had to lend him my googles when he brazed! Since there was significant extra tubing run, I calculated extra gas over what was stored in the compressor. They did not agree with this. However this was corrected upon repair of the previously mention gas leak at later date. The satisfaction index is really dependent on installation for a split unit. I am a satisfied customer and will consider another Lennox

"XP-19 5 Ton Piece of Junk"
Less than two years old and the compressor exploded last sat. the breaker had tripped feeding the unit after resetting it heard a hissing sound and bang like a 22 rife going off and freon spraying out everywhere, it blew out where the 230 volt wires go into the compressor, no excuse this unit cost me $8000.00 now have to pay labor $700.00 to fix this piece of junk, very unhappy with Lennox, stay away from them, after reading all the problems on this website they should be closed down by consumers union or whoever has the power to SHUT THEM DOWN !!!!

We downsized back in 2007. The house we bought had a Lennox unit (3 ton). It had problems right before we closed on the house and I made the owners buy me a home warranty. Good thing I did. We had to replace the compressor about 6 months after I moved in. About a year ago it started acting up. We had two different companies come out and look it over. they could not make it repeat the problem. Long story short it has not worked right for about a year. A week ago it caught on fire and almost burned my house down. NO, I am not making this up. My neighbor came running and pounding on my front door screaming "your house is on fire, your house is on fire!!!". I ran out grabbed a hose and while my wife called 911 I proceeded to put out the flower bed and bushes where the unit was located. Thank goodness it had not gotten big enough to actually catch the house on fire. The Fire Department got there and would not leave until a HVAC tech could explain what happened, turn all power off to the unit and verify it would not flare up again. Seems a capacitor blew up, melted a bunch of wires together and the hot melted insulation dripped down onto the leaves on the ground around the unit. I am VERY lucky that I was home and my neighbor saw it on fire. otherwise I would be lawyered up and suing in all directions. My home owners is paying for most on the new unit and you can bet it WILL NOT be a Lennox.

"Leaking freon gas"
My less than 4 year old #xp15-042-230-01 heat pump leaked it's freon gas and shut down. The repair bill came to $976.22 ! The soldered joint where the suction line enters the compressor was cracked. The technician who repaired the leak said this had been a quality control problem caused at the factory. Lennox refused to warranty the heat pump because there was not a broken part ! They also said " how can I expect a joint to last longer than 4 years.? " This has been my 1st experience with heat pumps and it has not been a pleasant one.

Thinking about putting a new heat pump in before winter. Mainly because of the tax rebate running out. Everybody says we should. In doing some research and learning, I happened across this sight. We purchased a Lennox HP21-511-P (4 ton) heat pump about 9 years ago. It was their top-top of the line back then. We put a new filter in once-in-a-while, walk by it alot in the basement. Other that that, never gave it much thought about quitting. I'm not even sure anybody knows where the thermostat is.

Lennox 3 ton Heat Pump 11 seer Installed with 20kw Air Handler(complete new system). I had 3 compressor failures in 10 years and over $$$ in total repairs. Poor Warranty for Parts & Labor. If the compressor fails more than one time, the Waranty is not for the 10 years only 12 months on the replaced compressor. I was charged $ 650.00 to repace the 1st unit under the 10 year warrenty for labor. The other failures cost around twice as much. I also had other high $$$ repairs on systems. TXV valve replaced cost $738.89, Two bad doulbel pole breakers in air handler, because of loose wiring. $380.00, Found loose wire at Blower relay. $184.00. Replace 50 relay $223.00 I had a maintenacne service agreement. The dealer asked Lennox to review my failures and they said they would give me $ 1,000 credit on a new system, After getting Est. from 3 other companys - Trane, Carrier & Nutone systems, I did not see any saving in the on the Lennox Est. Where is the "discount"? The other companys have better Warranties. Many have 10 years on compressors with complete replacment on Mult-failures and 10 years on Parts and Labor. I'm having a new system installed, It will not a Lennox.
Location: Kansas City
Satisfaction Rating:
Do not install a Lennox in your home. They are in the business of selling parts for their faulty equipment. We built a new house in 2005 and had a 5 ton Lennox hp26 heat pump system installed. This summer the compressor went out the first time we turned it on. Luckily the part was under warranty, but the $1000 labor bill was not. Exactly 1 week later the evaporator coil sprung a leak. This part is not covered under warranty and cost $1300 to replace. Now, one month later, the unit has stopped cooling once again. Probably leaking refrigerant again. You would expect a brand new system would last longer than 5 years before breaking down. I always hear of ac units lasting 15 to 20 years before needing to be replaced. Must not be a Lennox, I guess. After discussing my problems with a few hvac service contractors, some refused to install the brand because they are so prone to problems. If you buy Lennox, be prepared to throw your money away.

'Blazing Saddles' star recounts path to showbiz
Dan Eakin/Staff Photo - Actor Burton Gilliam, left, points his six-shooter at Collin County Sheriff Terry Box, middle, and C.C. Theophine, president-elect of the McKinney Rotary Club. Gilliam, known for his role in the country-Western film, 'Blazing Saddles,' addressed the Rotarians on Friday in downtown McKinney.
By Dan Eakin, firstname.lastname@example.com
Burton Gilliam started out as a firefighter. He spent 15 years with the Farmers Branch Fire Department, the Lake Highlands Fire Department and the Dallas Fire Department.
One day, in the early 1970s, he read in the newspaper that producer Peter Bogdanovich was coming to Dallas to look for actors in an upcoming movie called "Paper Moon." Gilliam thought it would be fun to go down and try to get a job as an extra. Instead, he got a role. He played Floyd the desk clerk in the movie.
Gilliam told members of the McKinney Rotary Club on Friday that he still was not convinced he should go into the acting. But a couple of years later, while at work, he got a phone call from Mel Brooks.
Brooks told Gilliam he wanted him to play a role in the upcoming movie, "Blazing Saddles." Gilliam said he made three trips to Hollywood before accepting the role.
After the second trip, Gilliam said, he got a call.
"This is Richard," the caller said.
"Richard who?"
"Richard Pryor," the caller answered. Gilliam said Pryor helped write the script for "Blazing Saddles" and had hopes of getting the role of Black Bart in the movie. Gilliam was still reluctant to take any movie role.
Later, he was asked, "How much money would it take to get you to take the part?"
Gilliam, making $12,000 a year as a firefighter, thought he would end their pleas when he said he would need an entire year's salary to take it. He later realized he could have gotten even more.
Either way, the rest was history. Gilliam eventually moved to Los Angeles, where he worked in showbiz for a quarter-century, in more than 45 films, with well-known movie names such as Brooks, Steven Spielberg, Clint Eastwood, Jimmy Stewart and Roy Rogers.
Asked Friday by a Rotarian who his favorite actors were, Gilliam named Madeline Kahn, who worked with him in both "Paper Moon" and "Blazing Saddles," and Richard Chamberlain.
Gilliam is now partly retired and lives in Allen with his wife, Susan.
Frank Walker Jr., who was last year's McKinney Rotarian of the Year, said he and his son, Frank Walker III, had met Gilliam at a gun show in Dallas. He said his son suggested that he ask Gilliam to come and speak to the McKinney Rotary Club. Gilliam agreed.
Gilliam was also a Golden Gloves boxing champion in his younger days.
"I had 217 fights, and I won 201," Gilliam told the Rotarians.
Toward the end of his talk, after jokes and cherished recollections, Gilliam got a little more serious.
"There are three kinds of people in the world," he said. "No. 1, there are those who won't work and don't have any goals. No. 2, there are those who work, but don't have any goals; and No. 3, there are those who work and have goals."
Gilliam said he has reached every goal he set over the past 35 years.
He conceded that goals should be practical, returning to a jovial tone.
For example, he said, "I know that I shouldn't set a goal to be president of the United States. I am 73 years old. That's too bad. That's their loss."
In more recent years, Gilliam has been more noted, at least around Dallas, for his punch line advertising vehicles, "I don't kere how you git here. Just git here!"
He was nationally known as the Pace Picante Sauce spokesperson for 12 years, who said in the commercial, "Hey, that stuff's made in New York City!"
The Rotary Club meeting ended with Gilliam leading the Rotarians in singing two songs from "Blazing Saddles," -- "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," and "Camp Town Ladies, Won't You Come Out Tonight?" He danced around while singing just like he did in the movie.

Is it possible to run a eDoomy tier list at 30pts?
I'm not sure but it seems that his tier lists are kind of lack luster compared to the other warlocks. Maybe I just need to read the book some more.

Kinda ugly for competition. See the comments on the 35 pt edoomy tire list topic.
What about this:
Edoomy - (-6)
Mulg - 12
Mauler - 9
Scouts - 5
However, it's just Tier 1... does that qualify for what you're looking for?

OR replace MULG for a 2nd EBDT & whelps for the healing/Fury management/charge lane blacking
Can't be a Mulg fanatic and keep replacing him! Cantankerous (or whatever it's called now) is just my favorite morale crusher! Keep Mulg find something else to do!
Im thinking of this: This is T4 so I can get the -1 to Heavy Warbeast cost.
Mulg - 5
Axer - 6
Impaler - 5
Mauler - 8
Troll Whelps - 2
Janissa Stonetide - 3 (for some back up) Mostly for blocking charge lanes with Stone Wall.
Its 29 points......grrrr so confusing....wait, .... just looked something up....I am making a 30pt army and eDoomy gets +6 WB points. ... so that's effectively 36 points??? Or am I way off.....
Last edited by Septic Flesh; 12-17-2010 at 08:33 PM.
An edoomy tier list can't take a few of those models, so no -1 cost. Check out the guide for what he can bring...
Gython has it right (and you've got a typo for Mulg's cost, although your overall is correct if you had the -1 cost to each heavy warbeast included).
Without that -1 cost you're at 31 points, so you'll have to lose something... and change it up quite a bit if you want to stay in theme.
I believe eDoomy can only take warbeasts (heavy only? I think so since I remember the axer's not allowed), scouts, champions, whelps, and a few solos (I want to say skinner and runebearer, I don't have my book with me atm) in his theme list. So you'll be restricted to those units to even make tier 1, let alone tier 4!
So this is what I am going with:
Mulg - 11
Mauler - 8
Mauler - 8
Earthborn Dire Troll - 3
Either that or I'm going to substitue the second Mauler for 3 whelps and Moses

Septic Flesh, maybe you're going about the tiers wrong. I just started, and I couldn't tell which way they go either at first, but they progress from tier 1 to tier 4, not the other way around.
So, for example, to start you have to meet the requirements for tier 1 (only including certain models in your list, which is usually a small subset of the models in the book).
Next, you have to meet tier 2 requirements, which for eDoomy I believe is including 2 Units, meaning champions or scouts, since those are the only Units (not warbeasts or solos) that he can take in his theme list.
Since you don't meet tier 2 requirements, you're Tier 1. Which means the points costs in your list should be:
eDoomy (-6)
Mulg - 12
Mauler - 9
Mauler - 9
Earthborn Dire Troll - 10
Total = 34 Points
Because you have not reached the requirements for Tier 4 to get the reduced points costs for your heavy warbeasts.
So, you're 4 points over... if you drop a Mauler, you'll have 5 points to play with... you could get scouts to stay in-tier. Or, you could drop the Earthborn instead of a Mauler, and get a minimum unit of champions for 6 points. You could also get 2 groups of 5 whelps (which count as solos) and a runebearer for those 6 points.
Hope this helps, let me know if anything's not clear!

A tier4 army for eDoomy is worthless under 50 points. So its a moot point anyhow. However, I played to day and got my **** pushed in for about 8 straight hours. Did not have fun at all and am not really seeing how this guy is so good. Not sure what I am gonna do for future games. or If I'll even play at all ... really pissed at how lackluster Mulg is, its either charge him in and "maybe" take out a jack, only to have him get killed immediately there after by other models or hang him back a little bit and watch him die to a charge or denegrahs ****ed off influence spell and watch him kill my warlock. Either way today sucked *** and Mulg was VERY UNIMPRESSIVE. However, my mauler held it down so I might just take more of him. Maybe I can live past turn 3.

From reading your other thread I don't think you should make a tier list. You can only go to tier 1 without having to buy at least two units, which it does'nt seem like you can do right now. How about this:
eDoomshaper (-6)
Mulg 12
Mauler 9
Axer 6
Swamp 4
Whelps x2 4
This would require to only pick up 2 units of Whelps and still run beast-heavy.

yeah, that's kinda the plan at this point.

Comments about Sonax Bromley Versatile Storage TV Stand for 48-68 Inch TVs in Black:
The stand came double boxed and very well packaged, despite this one of the pieces had a 1" chip taken out of it. Luckily it wasn't an area that was visible once assembled so I got away with some glue. A few points to make, the picture online shows a much nicer finish than the actual product you recieve, also the unit like others have already stated is very heavy because in fact it is a composite wood (mashed wood pulp slurry). It would have been nice if the unit were actual hardwood for the price (I recently bought a allen and roth closet organizer for the same price as this stand and it was all hardwood with veiners). The instructions although show clear diagrams don't give any guidance other than pictures which is poor because none of the items come labeled, so your pretty much matching things up while looking at the pictures to see if its the right way, than making a judgement call whether the finished side goes which way. The center drawer leaves little to be desired as the drawer sliders are poorly made and don't operate smoothly, nore close completely right (I spent an hour trying to tweak them to no avail. As far as function and style go the unit performs as it should just wish better products were used for the price. Would be nice if they included a touchup pen as well since there were alot of small but noticeable blemishes since it is composite wood. If you want a low profile stand but nothing high end this is your item, if your expecting a high end piece looks elswhere.

About Me Bargain Hunter, Practical, Stylish
Purchased this stand for a 60" DLP Television. It's perfect for it. The stand is definitely a solid piece of furniture because once it is assembled it is heavy. It is stylish and practical. The only con is cable management. There aren't any clips or openings specifically for the cables to connect the devices this stand will house.

Woman identified in Exeter concrete plant fire; death ruled a homicide
The State Police Major Crime Unit and Exeter police returned to the former City Concrete plant in Exeter Friday morning to continue investigating the death of a woman whose body was found inside during a fire Thursday. (JASON SCHREIBER/Union Leader Correspondent)
Investigators return to Exeter plant where woman's body was found
Body found in burning, abandoned Exeter plant
Authorities said Amanda "Amy" Warf, 36, was found dead inside the plant at 2 Hampton Road Thursday morning when firefighters arrived to put out a fire on the second floor.
Following an autopsy performed Friday, Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Thomas A. Andrew determined the manner of her death was homicide.
The cause of her death has not been released, pending further investigation.
A member of Warf's family said the family had no comment on the death when contacted by the New Hampshire Union Leader earlier Friday.
State and local investigators returned to the closed City Concrete facility Friday morning to continue their search for clues into the murder.
Authorities have not said how long the body is believed to have been inside the abandoned City Concrete plant or its condition when firefighters arrived.
Firefighters were unaware of the body when they were first called to the plant after a fire was reported. The case was quickly turned over to the state fire marshal and attorney general's offices after the body was found.
The attorney general's office, state police and Exeter police are being assisted by the Exeter Fire Department, the State Fire Marshal's Office, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
Anyone with information pertaining to homicide is asked to call state police at 271-3636.

Dreaming Big
2011 Innovators
This past June, plenty of industry luminaries hopped in taxis in New York City and headed downtown. They were anxious to see the soon-to-open Dream Downtown hotel, the brainchild of prominent hoteliers Sant and Vikram Chatwal of Chatwal Hotels & Resorts. They weren't disappointed.
During a preview party and a subsequent star-studded grand opening celebration, invited guests got a look at an innovative design, complete with a rooftop swimming pool visible from underneath, a hot new rooftop club scene, and a minimalistic yet modern design. Already, Dream Downtown has become one of the hottest spots in New York City and one of the top hotels in Manhattan.
But one of the truly innovative aspects of the hotel is the Chatwals' choice of location for such a high-end, high-profile property. Rather than placing its new flagship property for Dream in Times Square or East Side Manhattan—always fashionable locations—they chose the Albert C. Ledner building on West 16th Street.
"With this being the brand's new flagship property, we looked for a location that would fully embrace the eclectic energy of the brand and be the right location for our target guests," says Sant Singh Chatwal, chairman and CEO of Chatwal Hotels & Resorts. "Additionally, we looked at key need areas in the city for new hotel rooms. Standing between two of New York's most vibrant neighborhoods, Chelsea and the Meatpacking District, Dream Downtown's guests have immediate access to shopping and entertainment unlike anywhere else in the city."
A different type of location worked well with the diverse nature of Dream Downtown's target guests. "Because the public has become increasingly savvy with their travel decisions, the nature of our target guest has expanded immensely. We host a variety of ages and backgrounds but the common thread amongst them is a bold desire to try something new," says Vikram Chatwal, who developed the hotel with his father under the umbrella of Vikram Chatwal Hotels. "Dream Downtown's chic, industrial interiors and nightlife offerings, such as the rooftop lounge PH-D, draw a following that is more often than not employed in a creative industry, on the pulse of latest technologies, and more likely to be found at a boutique than a big-box department store."
Many people are also talking about the design of the hotel, particularly the round windows. "The exterior porthole windows were part of the original Albert C. Ledner building and became an important design element throughout the property," Vikram Chatwal says. "The exterior, which was adorned in stainless steel during the renovations, inspired the use of the porthole 'constellations' all over the hotel. The tone-on-tone circled wallpaper, penny tiled bathrooms, and glass-bottom pool evoke the whimsical and almost ethereal energy of the Dream brand."
Designed by Handel Architects, with Frank Fusaro, a principal at the firm, as the lead architect on the project, Dream Downtown's unique design elements continue to the guestrooms. "The largest inspiration for room design was drawn from the industrial chic attributes of Andy Warhol's Factory," Vikram Chatwal says. "The reflective elements on both the interior and exterior are reminiscent of The Factory's aluminum adorned walls as well as inspired by the grays and purples of Anish Kapoor's resplendent installation Sky Mirror."
And then there's that swimming pool, a rooftop oasis in the middle of Manhattan's bustling skyscrapers. The underneath view from inside the hotel is something to be seen. "Both of these spaces bring the daring design philosophy that the Dream brand is known for together with the high-rise lifestyle of New York City to create unparalleled destinations. The view from the lobby into the glass-bottom pool has become the focal point of the hotel lobby, giving guests a sense of the playful designs even during check-in," Vikram Chatwal says.
To market the hotel, the Chatwals teamed with Wyndham Hotel Group. Wyndham will franchise and manage the Chatwals' Dream and Night brands. "Wyndham Hotel Group will take the development of the Dream and Night brands to the next level by leveraging Wyndham's global distribution system, Wyndham Rewards loyalty program, and extended reach of development professionals. Chatwal Hotels & Resorts will continue to own the Dream and Night brand trademarks and intellectual property," Sant Chatwal says. "The relationship with Wyndham will unlock the true potential of our Dream and Night brands, which have proven their success in key markets like New York and Bangkok during the last six years and are prime to further expand globally. Working to leverage Wyndham Hotel Group's scale and reputation as a global brand leader will benefit the future of these inspired brands."
Having built a successful flagship in downtown Manhattan, the Dream brand has a bright future. "Each hotel in the Dream brand really draws from its surrounding culture and creates a unique energy in each property. Recently, my travels to incredibly vibrant locales like Côte d'Azur, France; Mexico; and India have been great inspirations for the future of the brand," Vikram Chatwal says. "There are so many rich flavors and vivid cultures to be found all over the world and now, the Dream brand can be a part of that. With the great success of the domestic properties and our relationship with Wyndham flourishing, the next steps for Dream are definitely to grow on an international scale, bringing our contemporary mix of daring and yet serene designs to guests around the world."

October 23, 2012
The 2013 Issaquah Relay was selected to serve as an enrollment site for the Cancer Prevention Study 3, part of the American Cancer Society's research efforts to better understand the link between lifestyle choices and the disease.
The position is fully supported by the relay planning committee, CPS-3 study coordinator and American Cancer Society staff partner to ensure the enrollment recruitment process runs smoothly.
Past long-term American Cancer Society follow-up studies have played a major role in cancer prevention at the American Cancer Society. Learn more at www.cancer.org/cps3.
Nightmare at Beaver Lake frighteners needed for Halloween haunt
September 25, 2012
Nightmare at Beaver Lake organizers need actors to frighten, spook and go bump in the night as the Halloween haunt prepares to terrorize the Sammamish Plateau.
Organizers plan actor training for Oct. 13-14 for actors with two or fewer years of experience in the haunt. More experienced volunteers can attend, too, because the show changes each year. Training runs from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at Beaver Lake Park. Participants should bring a bag lunch and dress appropriately for the weather.
Volunteers can also register for make-up training. The make-up session runs from 1-4 p.m. Oct. 14. Previous make-up volunteers interested in participating again should email email@example.com.
Organizers need vendors, volunteers for Independence Day
June 5, 2012
Organizers need vendors and volunteers to make the Down Home 4th of July and Heritage Day Celebration — Issaquah's annual Independence Day celebration — a success.
The action starts at 10 a.m. July 4 as participants gather and register for the Kids, Pets 'n' Pride Parade. The parade starts at 11 a.m.
Revelers then head to Veterans' Memorial Park for a hay hunt, three-legged and gunnysack races, pony rides, face painting, bouncy houses, and a slug race and beauty pageant. Participants must provide their own slugs. Save room for a pie-eating contest at about 1:30 p.m.
In order to present the celebration, organizers need volunteers to participate in setup and tear-down, and to work in the retail area and at activity stations.
Organizers offer booths to nonprofit organizations, arts and crafts vendors, and commercial ventures.
Find the application forms for the parade, vendors and volunteers at www.salmondays.org/4th-of-july.html.
Come out for Relay for Life
May 29, 2012
The 2012 Issaquah Relay for Life takes place this weekend at Skyline High School.
The two-day event has a simple concept. Teams are formed. Each team must raise a certain amount for the American Cancer Society. And donors pledge money for every lap walked at a local track. The overnight event allows participants to honor cancer survivors and remember those lost to the disease.
With the idea that cancer never sleeps, team members will take turns walking around the track through the night at the event that starts at noon Saturday and ends with closing ceremonies at 8 a.m. Sunday.
The event features overnight camping on the track's infield as well as games, competitions and music to keep everyone active.
The Issaquah event, held at Skyline High School the past few years due to construction at Issaquah High School, is 11th overall in the Great West Division, a 12-state region.
The highlight is the luminaria ceremony, where community members place illuminated bags, dedicated to someone touched by cancer, around the track, with relay participants walking one silent lap in their honor.
The goal is to collect $300,000 in donations for the American Cancer Society, according to Gwen Schweitzer, coordinator of this year's event.

Autism Society of America Honors Emily Colson for Memoir "Dancing with Max"
Learn More |
We're excited for Emily Colson, whose memoir Dancing with Max has been awarded the 2011 Autism Society of America's Outstanding Literary Work Award in the Family/Social category!
Dancing with Max: A Mother and Son Who Broke Free is the true story of Emily Colson and her austistic son Max. As a single parent of an autistic child, Emily has seen her share of challenges — but her life with Max has also shown her many valuable lessons and unexpected gifts.
A crucial moment came, Emily says, when Max was nine. His autism was so significant that they could barely leave the house. It was then that Emily decided she and Max could no longer be held captive by their circumstances; Emily decided they would live the next day big, bold, and brave. As Emily says in this video interview from Lifetime's The Balancing Act, "This is a book for all of us, about breaking free … of the things that hold us hostage."
You can read the first chapters of Dancing With Max for free on Scribd.

Well not quite, but we're not a million miles from it. It's only a matter of time.
In the early days of digital SLRs they weren't targeted, let alone priced, at the consumer market and if you wanted digital it would have been a compact of some sort. Canon's 300D (Digital Rebel in the US) was the first sub-$1000 DSLR and set about a shift in the market, where suddenly your average Joe could just about afford a digital SLR.
Since then all manner of DSLRs have been made available for as little as £300-400 new. Of the traditional camera companies, Nikon, Pentax, and Olympus joined Canon in marketing quality and affordable DSLRs for the consumer and were soon joined by other electronics companies such as Samsung (in partnership with Pentax) and Sony (using the Minolta SLR framework).
Compact cameras have been nowhere near the usability or quality of DSLRs primarily due to the poor quality of small sensors. However, Panasonic, Olympus, Samsung, Sony, Pentax and even Nikon have all released mirror-less interchangeable lens camera systems to challenge the status quo. Panasonic and Olympus have become champions of the Micro Four Thirds system whilst Samsung and Sony have stepped sideways and produced a hybrid of a hybrid. Their NX and NEX systems, respectively, have no mirrors/prisms but retain an APS-C sensor and use lenses smaller than that of their full size DSLR counterparts.
Micro Four Thirds (aka M4/3) took the industry by storm and their cameras sold very well. Panasonic have three tiers of M4/3 bodies whilst Olympus have many variations of their original EP-1, which all appear to be very similar. (I have to admit to not being a fan of Olympus aside of their Trip 35).
The beauty of the mirror-less system is that the lenses are smaller than on full size DSLRs, there is no mirror or prism to bulk out the camera body and since the flange distance (between the sensor and the mount) is a lot shorter than other systems, all manner of adapters are available to use virtually any lens.
All of a sudden people who would have stepped up from a compact to a DSLR are not jumping so far and are grabbing small interchangeable lens systems with both hands. Incredibly there are even those who are trading in their top of the range DSLR systems for smaller mirror-less cameras. Prior to the introduction of the M9, Leica fans were picking up mirror-less cameras and using their Leica lenses as a cheap way to go digital with M-mount lenses without paying over the odds for an M8.
Mirror-less camera systems look like they are the future. Most are reasonably priced, they all allow for the use of third-party lenses of all ages and types and they are the perfect 'bridge' between DSLRs and compacts.
My hope is that whether DSLRs or Compact System Cameras end up as the most popular choice, photographers are sure of what they actually need and not what they think they want. The financial pain of buying what you 'want' and then switching to what you actually need lasts a long time.
If I could go back to August 2008, I would have bought a Nikon FM3a, a Nikon
50mm f/1.2 AI lens and a bucket load of film.
Don't do what I did.

I didn't want to see Clemens make the playoffs at all. I wish he would have finished last. Him and Andy.It makes me sick that they both left knowing that a Red Sox - Yankee series was for sure going to happen. My gfather hopes to see Clemens pitching in the Series against the Yanks. I hope not. I wish he would rot. Escape the biggest rivalry sports to go to Houston. What an a&^. What do you guys think?

Italian Symbol Name?
Hey what is symbol in the middle called? Also how do you make one like that in photoshop or illustrator?
http://www.venetian.com/css/bck_crest.pngSimply looks like a "Crest", I don't know if there's a specific Italian name for it.I don't think there's a name for it. It's just a decorative symbol.
I don't think there's an "easy" way to make one (besides searching the interwebs for free icons that look like that). You'd have to just use a graphic design program to draw one...
They say V is for Vendetta, but they could be wrong...Actually I thought it was the roman numeral for 5.If anyone happens to see something similar for photoshop please let me know. I would really like to download one.

Wrong english for both "You're" (you are) and "Your." To remember the correct difference, the apostrophe represents a missing letter (as in the "G" from "Cookin'" and "Goin'") in the case of "You're" it's the missing "A."
As for "Your" it means it belongs to someone or something. (Genetive form. In some ways, the possessive form.) After committing these to memory, it gets extremely easy to remember without looking it up. Helpful examples:- "You're" (You are.) "You're next." "That place is heavily guarded, you're not going in there, are you?" "You're dead, wait 'till I get my hands on you." "When you're there, turn left." "Your." "This is your car." "Your Majesty." "Let's go to your place." "Is this your's?" Both definitions. "You're going to your wedding and that's that!" "You're responsible for your mistakes." "That's your pet and you're going to take care of it, not me!" |
1. | ur | ||
Moronic, half-assed spelling or "your" or "you're" used by close-minded, slow chatroom/AOLer individuals who can't type fast enough, and will use the excuse: 'i hav 2 use slang coz i am tokin 2 lots ov pplz unlyk u LOLZ', even though I could talk to several people without using a single abbreviation. Although these slow-minded turdburglars use it to represent 'u r', or 'you are', it is not spelt the way it would be pronunced. 'Ur' would be pronunced as 'err' or 'uhr', not 'yer' or 'yur'.
2. | ur | ||
1. Moronic abbreviation for "your," "you are," or "you're." It should NOT be pronounced "yur," but rather how it looks: ur (rhyming with purr, fur, her, etc.).
2. A city of ancient Sumer in southern Mesopotamia on a site in present-day southeast Iraq. One of the oldest cities in Mesopotamia, it was an important center of Sumerian culture after c. 3000 b.c. and the birthplace of Abraham. The city declined after the sixth century B.C.

5 Minute Horror's Cult Comedy Podcast!
It's a Zombie Emergency! Your loved one has been bitten and infected by a zombie. Do you dismember the corpse before the zombie transformation occurs? Or do you wait until your loved one rises as an undead, brain-sucking maniac before lopping of its head? What will you do? What will you do?
In this classic episode of Zombie Radio Show, Jimmy Rudolph fields a question from a very nervous young lady about just this subject. The episode proved so popular among fans that we proudly feature it today. We also threw in a famously funny commercial, and one of the worst Louie Armstrong impressions we've heard in a long time. Check it out!
Zombie Radio Show takes a skewed, funny look at the world of the Zombie Apocalypse, asking the question "What if society didn't crumble right away? What if we, as a society, had to deal with the Zombie Apocalypse?" We'd have to figure out for ourselves how to dispose of the bodies of infected loved ones. We'd have zombie-themed products and entertainments, much like the featured "Raceway Park" commercial. And of course, there'd be jazz. We couldn't stop it. If it could survive World War II, it could survive the Zombie Apocalypse.
Zombie Radio Show posts a new episode every Zombie Monday, so get your undead monster on and give a listen. See for yourself why Zombie Radio Show is one of the fastest growing zombie-themed comedy podcasts staring Jimmy Rudolph so far this year. And don't forget to follow Zombie Radio Show on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube!
