Neuschwanstein Castle
Neuschwanstein Castle was commissioned as the private refuge for Ludwig II of Bavaria, but opened to the public immediately after his death in 1886. Now recognizable as the inspiration for Disney's Sleeping Beauty Castle, Neuschwanstein is one of the most popular castles in Europe. The fairytale charm of Neuschwanstein Castle is also felt from the idyllic scenery of the Bavarian Alps. During the winter, some of the best views of the snow-capped mountains can be seen from the palace grounds.
The picture cycles in the castle were inspired by the operas of Richard Wagner, to whom the king dedicated the castle, and the corresponding medieval legends from his works. The throne room is magnificently decorated with frescos of angels, ironically the king died before the actual throne was built. Despite the medieval motif of the decor, the castle was actually outfitted with latest technology of the time with running water and central heating.
Practical Info
Neuschwanstein Castle is situated near Schangau and Fussen in the Allgau, a short ways from Munich. Day trips via train are popular for the numerous visitors to the castle, and they provided great views of the surrounding mountains. The rooms are only open to viewing through guided tours, either in German or English.

The HTC One V, the youngest sibliing in the HTC One series of Android devices, finally gets an Android 4.1 Jelly Bean-based Cyanogenmod 10 port. The CM10 nightlies port is available thanks to XDA Recognized Contributor jmztaylor for CDMA-based devices and XDA Recognized Contributor Lloir for GSM-based devices. Unlike most alpha and beta builds, the new build for both versions of the One V appear to be quite stable, with the exception of the LCD backlight never turning off and the camcorder not working. If you're an HTC One V owner and feeling brave, hit up the source link and get flashing! But as always, it's wise to take backups before proceeding.

Anyone ever ride on the filming 'location' for a movie? I have two films I need to see this winter because I've ridden my bike over places that appear in the film:
The Road - this end of civilization film uses abandoned tunnels on a former route of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. I, Bautieri, Neilfein, JAGraham, and other posters rode through them in May.
Film trailer:
Lovely Bones - a December release, this film was shot in nearby Royersford, on Main Street. The town was chosen because it still looks very much as it did in the 1970s. For some reason I don't have a single photo of Main Street in Rofo, but I have the same road in Spring City across the river.
Anyone else ride through a site where they shot a film?

Are you prepared for an emergency? Knowing what constitutes an emergency, where to get help and what to do while you're waiting for help can save a life. Here are some tips from the American College of Emergency Physicians.
First, remember that prevention remains the best cure. Get routine medical and preventive care from a family doctor. Getting necessary immunizations and treating minor illnesses before they get serious can minimize visits to the emergency department.
Some warning signs of a medical emergency include difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, chest or upper abdominal pain or pressure, fainting, sudden dizziness, weakness or change in vision, confusion or change in mental status, sudden severe pain, bleeding that won't stop, severe or persistent vomiting, coughing up or vomiting blood, suicidal or homicidal feelings.
If your community has the 911 emergency numbers, dialing it will put you in touch with emergency medical help. Even small children can be taught to dial an emergency number.
On the campus of Clemson University or in surrounding community, dialing 911 will speed dial your phone call to the emergency dispatcher. When dialing 911 from a mobile or cellular phone please remember that your location and caller identification is not always displayed. Please stay on the line with the dispatcher until you are instructed to hang up. Always be aware of your location and be prepared to tell the dispatcher where you are.
Knowing CPR and choking rescue procedures is important, especially if you have small children in the house. Your local American Red Cross or American Heart Association chapter may offer these courses. It's also important to know the basics of first aid, so you can stop serious bleeding, manage shock or handle fractures until emergency help arrives.

Bodybuilding Motivation: The Climb To Number 13

Nighttime isn't the only time casein protein can help build muscle. Bodybuilders have known for years that whey is a fast-digesting protein ideal for postworkout recovery. Some are also taking hydrolyzed whey protein, which is absorbed faster than standard whey because it is "predigested," a process that breaks the long protein chains down into short Continue Reading »

Worries about the economy didn't hold radio back in the second quarter — but growth wasn't exactly meteoric, either: total advertising revenues increased 1% from just under $4.54 billion to just over $4.58 billion, according to the latest figures from the Radio Advertising Bureau.

There are several different types of residential income properties, but all share the same purpose which is to generate income and are typically considered investment. Below are some of the residential income properties types
Duplex –is defined as any dwelling that provides two separate units with separate entrances. This could include two-story houses having a complete apartment units on each, floor, separate bungalow units, or detached townhouse with two separate apartment units that generate income through the residents paying rent to the landlord.
Triplex – Are similar to that of a duplex, but contain one addition unit and tend to be popular among new investors of residential income properties due to the easier management of the property.
Apartment Building – (5+ Units or More) – The most common, and well known of the residential income properties is the often referred to as Multi-Family buildings or apartment buildings, which pertains to apartment complexes that contain 5 or more individual residential units. Multi-Family buildings/Apartments are considered residential income producing properties based upon income the property generates from the tenants that reside in the apartment units, e.g. rent. Apartments can be as big as a few units on one or two floors to multiple floors with hundreds of apartments units within the building ranging from different sizes and types. Apartment units are diverse in size and design, and include studio/efficiency units, and one, two, three, and more, bedroom floor plans. The modern apartment units can be as large as a single-family home and can include a family room, den, home office, and/or formal dining room, and more.
Mixed Use Building – Which is considered a highbred of both a residential income property and commercial building with space for commercial, business, or office use, and space for residential use. Typically the residential units and tenants reside above that of the commercial units which are commonly found on the first floor. Many new and modern developments of the Mix Use properties have become popular locations for tenants to live and are commonly found in high density locations.
As you can see Residential Income Properties are a diverse niche within commercial real estate and can pertain to buildings as small a Duplex all the way to a 40 story high-rise apartment complex, but in the end they all share the same basic fundamental goal which is to generate income through the renting or leasing of units.

Lord Baker's 488 pages cannot hide his fundamental failure on civil liberties
Lord Baker's review into UK Extradition Law – all 488 pages of it – has been published today. A major section of the report deals with the working of the European Arrest Warrant, which Big Brother Watch held a fringe meeting on at Conservative conference.
Before the election, Dominic Grieve summed up the situation well. He said: "Our extradition laws are a mess. They're one-sided. A Conservative government will re-write them." Nick Clegg was in agreement on the failures of the UK/US Extradition treaty, adding: "I forced a debate on it…and warned the Government then that the treaty would lead to an abuse of people's rights in this country."
Nick de Bois MP, who spoke at our fringe event, yesterday outlined what he would like the review to say on the European Arrest Warrant. His view shares the concerns of the Joint Committee on Human Rights, who reported in July this year on the need for reform.
The Committee argues that the Government should "ensure that other EU Member States do not use the European Arrest Warrant for the purposes of requesting a person for investigation rather than to stand trial."
Sadly, Lord Baker's review does not even go this far. This failure to recognise the true scale of the European Arrest Warrant's misuse is a bitter blow to those who have suffered injustice under the system.
While Ensuring European Arrest Warrants are only used for serious offences is a positive step forward, but the fundamental question of when they should be issued has been neglected and this is a serious failing.
Countless examples exist where the European Arrest Warrant system has failed to protect civil liberties and the Government should urgently act to curtail its use where evidence is lacking, investigations have been insufficient and where a fair trial cannot be guaranteed.
Yet Lord Baker concluded: "We have concluded that the European arrest warrant has improved the scheme of surrender between Member States of the European Union and that broadly speaking it operates satisfactorily."
This review is simply not good enough. The Government should see it as a bare minimum of reform, and live up to its rhetoric before the election and go much further to properly protect civil liberties.

As a citizen of the UK, I think I should be entitled to some protection in UK law from being removed from the protection of UK law without any real legal scrutiny. As I understand it, a court now has only to be satisfied that I am the person complained of, whereas I think that it should have to be satisfied that there is an arguable case of my having committed a criminal offence before I am shipped off to a foreign country. In these days of electronic cross-border trade, I could buy something on Ebay, a dispute arises with a seller in a foreign country, and I could find I'm shipped off without my being able to put my side of the case. Just as I owe a duty to my country, it owes a duty to me. Or does it now mean nothing to be a British citizen?

» Build confidence for the real test
It is difficult for students and parents to prepare for
entrance examinations. Due to the
competitive nature of these tests, it is essential to set up regular practise
sessions to improve your student's skills gradually. Parents need as much guidance in
this area as they can possibly get. This guidance and support was
not easy to come by, until now.
Our tests contain 35 questions that are to be completed within 30 minutes.
All tests contain a mixture of questions in Mathematics, General Ability and
Reading Comprehension. The tests are modelled after the NSW Opportunity Class (OC) Test.
These tests can be used, not only by NSW students, but by students in all
Australian states that are preparing their children for curriculum at this level.
The four subjects that we cover are:
There are numerous practice tests in English, Mathematics and General Ability.
Essay competitions are held multiple times every year.
The practice tests are modelled after the NSW Selective High School Test.
Students and their parents who have decided to prepare for these tests. It is important to
understand that parent involvement is highly recommended in this process. SelectiveTests may
be used to supplement tuitions and private tutoring or as an addition to a
self-study program. SelectiveTests can also be helpful to students Grade 3
through 7 who simply desire to improve their ability in the offered subjects.
Given the competitiveness of the entrance examination, students
often begin preparation well in advance. For the Year 7 test,
most students begin while they are in grade 5. For the Year 5 test, students
often begin in grade 4. Sign up now.
No! While many students begin preparation a year in advance,
successful students have begun with much less time. SelectiveTests will help
you use your time efficiently by helping you identify areas to focus on.

A boater's paradise, Bay Point Marina is gently tucked away along the Grand Lagoon in Panama City Beach, Florida, yet conveniently located just five minutes from the beautiful Gulf of Mexico and 15 minutes from the Intracoastal Waterway. The location, the amenities, the people all set Bay Point apart as one of the best marinas in Northwest Florida.
The quiet, protected 180-slip full-service marina offers world-class facilities and services and access to the award-winning Wyndham Bay Point Resort.
Marina guests can explore the resort on complimentary bicycles and take advantage of the resort's tasty waterfront dining, the only Nicklaus-designed golf course in Northwest Florida, the new 12,000-square-foot Serenity Spa, clay tennis courts and more.
Easily accessible from the Gulf of Mexico through St. Andrew's Bay, the marina is only minutes from prime Gulf fishing and a great "jumping off" port for a southern trip across the Gulf. Anglers can head out for year-round Gulf fishing and won't want to miss the numerous special events held at the marina each year.
Bay Point's top-notch amenities and relaxing atmosphere alone are enough to inspire a visit, but the warm hospitality and exceptional service keep boaters coming back for more.

After years of silence Morgan Freeman is finally speaking out about rumors he and step-granddaughter E'Dena Hines are romantically involved — claiming the reports are nothing but "defamatory fabrications."
As I posted yesterday, I've heard the rumors about Morgan Freeman and his step-granddaughter for quite some time now, and never seen them either confirmed or denied. Why now, after all this time, is the 74-year-old actor speaking out? Apparently the reports are picking up pace and he's finally sick of it.
A rep for Morgan Freeman rep tells TMZ the actor remained silent for years because he didn't want to "dignify these stories by commenting" … but now he feels compelled to speak out after the reports were picked up by various "mainstream media" outlets.
In a statement to the press the actor says, "The recent reports of any pending marriage or romantic relationship of me to anyone are defamatory fabrications from the tabloid media designed to sell papers. What is even more alarming is that these fabrications are now being picked up by the legitimate press as well."
Twenty-seven-year-old E'Dena Hines, who was rumored to have been having an affair with her step-grandfather for over a decade, had this to say, "These stories about me and my grandfather are not only untrue, they are also hurtful to me and my family."
In light of both Morgan Freeman and E'Dena Hines' denials I feel relived — and confused. I understand not wanting to give outright gossip any time in the sun, but these nasty reports have been going on for years! There's something sad about allowing people to think they are true for all of that time as well.
Supposedly with age comes wisdom, but I'm reminded of something Justin Bieber said recently (yes, the 18-year-old). When accused of fathering a child last year he fought back, publicly stating, "I know that I'm going to be a target, but I'm never going to be a victim." Very wise, young man.
Obnoxious, salacious rumors are a terrible thing, but I can't say I think Morgan Freeman made the right call by refusing to speak for so long.
What is your reaction to Morgan Freeman's denial of a relationship with his step-granddaughter?

Texas A&M's move to SEC has changed recruiting in Lone Star State
Tevin Mitchel is happy where he is in Arkansas.
But the Razorbacks cornerback, whose father Eric played college football at Oklahoma, says things might've gone differently with his recruitment had Texas A&M been in the SEC when he was being recruited out of Mansfield (Texas) Legacy.
"It probably would've been in my decision," Mitchel said. "I honestly probably would've still came here, but it would've made it more difficult."
Arkansas and LSU have long selectively gone into Texas with success and other SEC schools have been able to recruit in the state as well.
But Texas A&M's move from the Big 12 to the SEC has changed the recruiting dynamic in the Lone Star state.
The Aggies can sell in-state players on staying home and playing in the nation's most prestigious conference while other schools can sell the opportunity to at least occasionally go back home to Texas for a game.
Things went the other way for Will Hines, a sophomore cornerback from Waco, Texas.
Hines was committed to Missouri until the Tigers announced they would move to the SEC.
"They were going to be playing all my friends and everything in Texas. I wanted to play against them, I didn't want to play with them," Hines said. "Then they came to the SEC so I came to Arkansas. Now that Texas A&M is in the SEC, since they come here and we go there, I think it'll help other teams recruit in Texas."
After getting at least five of the Lone Star state's top 50 recruits in every signing class from 2004-2010, Oklahoma has combined for just five in the past two seasons.
Last season, for the first time since 2005, Texas A&M signed more state top 50 players than Texas.
Of the top five committed players in Texas, according to Rivals.com, Texas A&M has two of them. Alabama and LSU have one each, while Baylor has the only one of the group that isn't committed to an SEC school.
Texas A&M commit Nick Harvey, a safety from Richmond (Texas) Travis who is one of that group of five, told 247sports.com that the Aggies being in the SEC played a big part in his decision.
"I always wanted to play in the SEC," Harvey told the site. "I'd say them being in the SEC had about 25 or 30 percent to do with my decision."
Mitchel was recruited by the Aggies out of high school, but the draw of playing in the SEC wound up being too much to ignore.
He wound up choosing the Razorbacks over Nebraska.
"Toward the end of my decision, I wanted to go somewhere where I'm playing against the best," Mitchel said. "When you go against the best, that's when it really brings out your talent. You have to play the best to be the best."

what a horrible story. I wonder what the circumstances were surrounding the shooting?
Alcohol and firearms do not mix... Shaken or stirred.:banned:
What the hell? What a homecoming to survive that long on the streets of Iraq but then got shot on a street in Alaska.
By the title I thought "Vet" was meaning veterinarian.

It's too bad that soldiers assigned to USARAK are prohibited from carrying a concealed weapon except out in the boonies.
It certainly did create a significant risk for Sgt. Minnear for not being allowed to do so, I wonder how Major General Layfield feels about his "policy" now that one of his combat troops was killed because he didn't have the necessary firepower at his disposal to defend himself against the enemy...or does he feel that it was a justifiable sacrifice?Quote:
Carrying concealed deadly weapons by USARAK Soldiers represents a significant risk to the safety
and welfare of this command.
That kind of reminds me of a man a few years ago who came back from Iraq or Afghanistan, managed to survive war, but died after hitting a moose. Yes even in Alaska we have our share of bad people, and not so smart animals.
Sad and senseless. :frown:
what a waste,time for the scumbum to go back to prison.....16 days
What kind of bogus policy is this for a man in the military to issue? A risk to the command? What could he possibly be talking about? I guess somebody this lame could be worried about somebody putting him out of their misery. Does he also prohibit driving, smoking, drinking, consorting with loose women and extreme sports?
My prayers go out to the family of the victim

Can't tell which one without the beard.Jandro is there too.
Demain, on roule!
how long does it take to get back to peak shape after 3 months off the bike?
18/30 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) 😁
41 days
I had a teammate take 7 months off. He's been back in the saddle for 2.5 months now, and he's probably 90% of the way there. I believe his fitness is now well ahead of where I was when he came back, but I'm still ahead of him at this point b/c of my own gains. This is a guy who I've trained with since 2006, on lunchtime rides, so we each have a pretty good view of where the other is fitness-wise.
Bringing this back to the top for an update on my status (it's ALL about ME!) and some interim results.
I finished a three week block of base (320, 285 and 229 miles/week, TSS of 963, 910 and whatever the last week was) and then had a doctor-required two weeks off the bike. Doctor's appointment was Friday, got on the bike that afternoon and both days over the weekend, JRA for ~120 miles. Recovery day Monday, second block of base began yesterday.
I could see a difference in watts produced at my usual "cruising" RPE. Whereas before that range was in the mid-upper Z2 range, now it's literally on the Z2/3 borderline. To be honest, that's not buckets full of watts, but it's definitely there. Also, in the past, going up rollers required a conscious effort, but just happens now; not a big difference in watts generated, just easier. Three hours at that level is no longer any big deal, where it took a good bit more effort in the past. I'm likin' it!
There are a variety of reasons this might be happening. It could simply be the result of two weeks rest. It could be the result of training over a longer term. It could be me just having a couple of really good days. I don't think these explain it, though. I really do think the improvement is real, and that it's part physical and part psychological. Time will tell. But I'm looking forward to the rest of this block, and to next year too. I might still get my ass handed to me on a platter, but at least it'll be a smaller serving.
Demain, on roule!
hearing that makes me really confident that my 3 weeks off in january will not totally derail my early season.

Came across this on the Hunter Allen Power Blog. Would be a pretty different way to organize my training than what I have planned, but it seems like it would be a more pleasant way to use trainer time.
Off-Season Training: It's Time to Get Your Homework Done! ~ Hunter Allen Power Blog
I always did my training in blocks: trained hard for 3-4 days, then took a break and let my battery recharge to 100% again. This is actually a highly effective way to manage the off-season, as it allows us to keep our chronic training load (CTL) slowly building throughout the winter without a large negative impact on our training stress balance (TSB).
Im not talking about lots of long base miles; I think thats great for pros but somewhat unrealistic for most of us trying to balance work, family, cycling, etc. No, what Im talking about is more intense rides on the trainer or out on the road that are focused, strong, and relatively short. You dont have to do three-hour rides in the freezing cold if you want to make next year your best season ever; a really focused hour to hour-and-a-half session on the trainer with plenty of intervals is really all you need. Now, if you do this every day, youll be a January star for certain, but if you sprinkle in these hard workouts with some other workouts that just emphasize more muscular work, youll be able to maintain and improve your functional threshold power (FTP) and keep that battery charged.
His plan seems better than nothing, but honestly too complicated for me; I don't do any workouts that would require me to write down what to do when, I like it more like "hold x% of FTP for y hours". Especially for Base training.
He's obviously Hunter Allen, and I'm obviously not; but when anyone says "hey I found a shortcut to fitness!", I'm very dubious. There must be a tradeoff somewhere.
You can gain fitness that way, but it seems like it wouldn't last.. I suppose this is a never-ending discussion, and one we've had in this thread I believe.
Thanks for bumping the thread though, I was meaning to do so now that we're in "base" season!
All about that base. I find the easiest way to keep CTL high and TSB low is to just not let your CTL get too low. I pulled up a little bit on intensity but kept my CTL pretty high but haven't had a -tsb day in like 6 weeks. Was -2 tsb after two 4+ hour rides this weekend, but was back positive again the day after.
It's easier to claw your way out of a hole if you just don't get in one!
That plateau!
I ain't your coach though... (but if I was I'd say imagine huge area under the curve being focused on a peak during the season, your fitness would be soooo much higher!)
It's actually impressive you can maintain that/not really rest for so long and not just die.
ctl plateau, not ftp/vO2 plateau.
Good read on why you should take some time off each year:
Relax ... It's only detraining: Time off the bike may help you go faster - VeloNews.com
Category 2 | | Velogames BikeForums Leagues: 1st - 2012 Veulta, 1st - 2011 Vuelta, 2nd - 2013 Vuelta, 3rd - 2012 Giro, 4th - 2012 TdF
Good read!
should - "because it's not that bad"
At least there's nothing presumptuous about assuming our amateur training loads (huge 15 hour weeks!) require the same downtime as the TdF guys.
Here's more useful training tips to improve vO2: Google
E'rrybody want to ride fast, ain't nobody want to work consistently.
It is a good article, and highlights (albeit briefly) the benefits of traditional base training - the long-term adaptations. I've become pretty convinced that, for me anyway, there's no real substitute for base miles. At least not yet. Shorter, higher-intensity workouts get my FTP up, sure, but I still end up hitting the wall hard in longer races without dedicated endurance work. It's a weakness of mine, so that might be a factor.

Joe and Betty became believers in "Christian education" and when Ray was ready to start high school, they sent him to a Seventh-day Adventist academy in Loveland called Campion Academy, where he attended for four years and graduated in 1951. Little did he know how this would change his life.
While at Campion Academy, Ray met Phyllis C. Kuhnke. After graduation both Ray and Phyllis went on to attend Union College in Lincoln, Neb. where they fell in love and were married in 1952.
Ray graduated from Union College in 1955 with a degree in theology and started working as a pastor for the Seventh-day Adventist Church. His service for the church was just beginning and would continue for over 40 years.
Ray and Phyllis were blessed with four children. Both Richard A. (Rick) and Sheryl R. (Sherry) were born in Lincoln, Neb. while Ray was attending Union College, with Rick being born in 1954 and Sherry born a year later in 1955. Three years later in 1958, the family grew again with the birth of their second son, Randall S. (Randy), who was born in South Sioux City, Iowa and a year later, in 1959, their second daughter, Terrill A. (Teri), was also born in South Sioux City.
As a pastor for the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Ray and Phyllis moved from church to church, ministering to each congregation and helping bring others to know God's love and faith in Jesus. From 1955-1962 Ray pastored three churches in Nebraska.
In 1962 God called and Ray answered by accepting a call to work for the Texas Conference of Seventh-day Adventists as pastor of the Dallas Oak Cliff SDA Church in Dallas, Texas. While there, he used his skills as a carpenter/builder (which he had learned from his father) to help build a new church for the members to meet in.
In 1965 the church called again for Ray and Phyllis to go for mission service, which they accepted. They worked in Korea for two years and then went on to the Philippines for three years, returning to the United States in 1970. While in the Philippines, Ray completed his master's degree at Philippine University.
Ray and Phyllis had many experiences during this time, showing God's leading, and they developed a deep love for the people of Korea and the Philippines. They later returned to the Philippines to hold evangelistic meetings.
In 1970 Ray moved the family back to the U.S. and started a new chapter in his ministry. He started working in education with young people. His first stop was at Pioneer Valley Academy in New Braintree, Mass.
From there he continued teaching and/or being the principal at Union Springs Academy in Union Springs, N.Y., Highland View Academy in Hagerstown, Md., Sheyenne River Academy in Harvey, N.D. and finally Dakota Adventist Academy in Bismarck, N.D.
After leaving Dakota Adventist Academy in 1979 Ray took a leave of absence to work on and complete a doctoral degree in education from the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, Mass.
He went on to work for the Arkansas/Louisiana Conference as pastor of the Shreveport SDA Church and then went to the Conference as the Associate Secretary. Later he pastored the Monroe Adventist Church and Little Rock Adventist Church. In Monroe, La., he helped build another church.
Ray concluded his formal service for the church by moving to California and working for the Northern California Conference as the Associate Pastor in charge of the day-to-day operation of the Sacramento Central Seventh-day Adventist Church in Sacramento, Calif. It was here where he worked closely with Doug Batchelor and the "Amazing Facts" broadcast.
His last three years in Sacramento, he pastored the Antelope Hills SDA Church in Antelope, Calif. He formally retired his service to the Seventh-day Adventist denomination in 2003.
Ray and Phyllis decided to return to Holyoke, where their life together had begun some 53+ years before. Phyllis was born and raised in the community and many of her family still lives there. It is a place they could call home.
Ray enjoyed the time he had living and working in Holyoke, working with the city council, Phillips County Economic Development Board, Credit Union and Hospital Planning Committee, and substitute teaching for the high school and grade school. Every place he could help fulfilled his need to contribute.
Of course, he could always find time for golf. Oh, how he loved playing on the Holyoke golf course. His love for flowers and gardening were evident by the colorful corner at 341 N. Phelan Ave. He mentioned many times how thankful he was to have come back to live and work here with the people of Holyoke.
Out of all of his accomplishments, he loved the Lord. He dedicated his life to serving God. He let his light shine in his corner of the world, but most importantly he cared. Ray Bailey lived courageously and untiringly for God. He lived his faith, and loved all with unconditional love. He has left the torch for others to carry on.
He is survived by his wife and faithful companion, Phyllis C. Bailey; children, Rick, Sherry, Randy and Terrill; 10 grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren, plus one on the way.
Ray's funeral service was held Oct. 27 at Phillips County Event Center in Heginbotham Hall with Pastor Ralph Watts officiating. Interment followed at Holyoke Cemetery.
Memorial contributions may be made to the Seventh Day Adventist Rocky Mountain Chapter.
Gerk Funeral Home was entrusted with the arrangements.

AP Source: 49ers to send Smith to KC
Yet everyone knew it was likely the 49ers would do their best to improve Smith's situation considering all he did for the franchise for nearly the past decade.
"Alex is really playing the best football of his career the last two years," Harbaugh said. "We think we got the best quarterback situation in the National Football League, feel strongly about that. Again, that'll be a process that plays out. Alex Smith continuing to be a 49er or if a trade occurs in the next weeks or months. Those are the two possibilities, most likely possibilities."
Smith acknowledged when he lost the job to Kaepernick back in November that he had done nothing wrong but get hurt. Not only had he completed 26 of his previous 28 passes - 18 of 19 for 232 yards and three touchdowns without an interception and a 157.1 passer rating in a Monday Night Football win at Arizona on Oct. 29 - Smith had just earned NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors after that victory in the desert.
He then sustained a concussion in the second quarter of a 24-24 tie against St. Louis on Nov. 11 - saying later he threw a touchdown pass with blurry vision. Smith sat out the next game as Kaepernick dazzled in his debut as an NFL starter, beating the Bears handily at home on Monday Night Football.
After that, Harbaugh vowed to stick with the "hot hand," as he regularly put it, while complicating matters by still referring to Smith as a starter.
Smith's most poignant response to the situation was, "I feel like the only thing I did to lose my job was get a concussion."
Kaepernick led the 49ers to the NFC championship and a 34-31 loss to Baltimore in the Super Bowl in his second season. Now the 49ers are looking for his backup.
The 28-year-old Smith struggled for most of his career in San Francisco, plagued as much by coaching and constant coordinator changes as by his own indecisiveness. But when Harbaugh became coach in January 2011, Smith blossomed under the former QB's guidance. He was among the league leaders in passer rating (104.1) with a 70.2 completion percentage when he got hurt last season.
Fox Sports first reported the deal Wednesday.
