The initiative for a prep school came from the citizens of Liberty, Virginia (now
Bedford City). One cannot tell how much went on behind the scenes in the way of
propositions between Smith, various board members, and the townsmen. Obviously,
the board heard from Smith that the local people wished to establish a preparatory
school there to be called the Randolph-Macon Academy. Ownership and sponsorship
would be by the college's trustees. In return for the privilege, the town would
offer thirty-seven acres and a subscription of $10,000. The building would be supplied
(through a four-inch main) free water in perpetuity; the grounds and buildings would
be exempt from taxation; and the street leading to them would receive electric lighting.
All of this, presumably, would increase the prestige of the town and bring in new
revenues to the local merchants. Smith argued that the school would bring in more
than a hotel. On January 3, 1889, the board accepted the offer, noting That we recognize
the importance of establishing a Preparatory School in Connection with Randolph
Macon college, as a feeder to that institution and as a means of thoroughly qualifying
candidates for entrance in to the College, as well as of maintaining a high standard
of Collegiate instruction. The anomaly in the situation came from the distance between
Ashland and Bedford City: 117 miles in a direct line and something like 140 miles
by railroad.
When it plunged, the board plunged deeply. The total cost of the Bedford building,
including furniture and grading, came to $61,000. The very large and imposing Romanesque
structure had all the modern conveniences, more so in fact than anything at the
college, including electricity. The architect was W. M. Poindexter of Washington,
D.C. Of its costs, $10,000 came from the citizens of the town and county, $5,000
from President Smith, $5,000 from Governor Jackson of Salisbury, Maryland, and $4,600
from sundry persons in the Baltimore Conference. Smith's large contribution suggests
that his role in the whole scheme went beyond titular leadership. In any case, the
amount collected did not go far enough. The committee in charge of the building
had to borrow $25,000 to ready the project, and even at that, the west wing with
its gymnasium and dormitory for forty students went unfinished. The trustees dedicated
the structure, on July 4,1890; it opened for pupils the following September. Pettyjohn
Hall at the Ashland campus, completed the same season, could not compare to it in
size, style, or amenities. (It is unlikely that the trustees could have generated
the same support for an equivalent building at Ashland, given the roles of local
and regional boosterism.) The success of the Bedford City academy sparked emulation
among the Virginians in the Baltimore Conference. (Bedford lay on the western marches
of the Virginia Conference.) In October 1890, four months after the dedication of
the academy, the Randolph-Macon trustees found themselves in Middleburg, Virginia,
learning, from a certified copy, propositions from the Winchester District Conference
in reference to the establishment of a [Baltimore] Conference Academy in Connection
with R.M. College and under control of its Trustees. The board resolved that an
Academy ought to be erected in the bounds of the Baltimore Conference whenever sufficient
financial considerations are furnished. The district conference pushed for Winchester
as the site, but that town was outbid by its neighbor seventeen miles to the south,
Front Royal. Middleburg itself offered fifteen acres of land one-third of a mile
from a railroad station, 160 lots estimated at $200 each, and $4,000 in cash. Front
Royal offered, through the Front Royal and Riverton Improvement Company, five acres
and one-fourth of the construction cost, provided the Conference spend not
less than twenty thousand dollars and not more than one hundred thousand dollars
on the academy.
Apparently, the board got the Front Royal burghers to up their ante, for Smith reported
to the board that in June 1891, they had $59,000 in cash and notes, plus $7,000
in land to be sold for money and a construction site of fifteen acres with a guarantee
of water from the water works free of charge forever. The whole was valued at $90,000,
with the trustees pledged to add $10,000. He expected the building to cost $75,000.
Naturally, the building cost more than the estimates. In June 1892, almost fifty
thousand dollars had been paid out and twenty-nine thousand was still owed. The
Front Royal Academy, also a Poindexter building, opened in September 1892. Again,
the great edifice of the academy outdid any single building at the college in Ashland,
and again the same local sources could not have been tapped for a facility at Ashland-90
miles away as the crow flies, or 140 miles by rail. The academies acted indeed as
feeders to the college. In the entering class of 1914, for example, fifteen of seventy-nine
freshmen (about 19 percent) came from Bedford or Front Royal.

"Our summer pools are a great, affordable place for people of all ages to cool off and exercise," said Mayor Jerry Abramson. "This year, as part of our Healthy Hometown Movement's focus on lifelong fitness, we're opening three pools for extended hours for lap swimming or senior citizen exercise programs." More information about the Mayor's Healthy Hometown Movement can be found online.
Two pools offer new extended lap swimming hours for $2 per person. Breslin Park's pool is open for lap swimming on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:15 to 7:45 p.m. Watterson Elementary School's pool offers lap swimming on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:30 to 11 a.m. Additionally, Sun Valley Park's pool is now open exclusively for seniors on Mondays from 10 a.m. to noon, for $2 per person.
Pool patrons may bring their own picnic supplies, although large coolers, glass containers and alcoholic beverages are not permitted. Metro Parks reserves the right to inspect small coolers. To provide a healthy swimming environment, all pools are smoke-free.
Algonquin, Fairdale, LaPorte, Norton, Shelby and Watterson offer free swimming lessons for all ages through July. To register, call (502) 897-9949 or visit a pool offering these programs.
Breslin, Fairdale, LaPorte, Norton and Wyandotte pools have baby pools for toddlers. Parents must supervise children in these baby pools.
Every pool features lifeguards that are certified in CPR and First Aid. For more information, call (502) 897-9949 or visit www.metro-parks.org.

DeKalb County school board members are preparing for a key hearing that could determine whether Georgia's governor makes sweeping changes in the school system's leadership.
The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in December put the suburban Atlanta system on probation and threatened to revoke its accreditation.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (http://bit.ly/WI5rSa) that a Thursday hearing with the state board of education is crucial for the system because it's likely to produce a recommendation to Gov. Nathan Deal. Under a 2011 law, Deal can suspend the local board if the state school board recommends it.
The school system is also expected to discuss selection of a new leader this week. School board Chairman Eugene Walker said Monday he will remain on the board but will step out of the leadership role.

Itron Inc. Stock Upgraded (ITRI)
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Electronic Equipment, Instruments & Components industry. The net income increased by 106.8% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from -$517.08 million to $35.35 million.
- 37.20% is the gross profit margin for ITRON INC which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 7.00% is above that of the industry average.
- ITRON INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, ITRON INC swung to a loss, reporting -$12.55 versus $2.56 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($3.80 versus -$12.55).
- Compared to where it was 12 months ago, the stock is up, but it has so far lagged the appreciation in the S&P 500. We feel that the combination of its price rise over the last year and its current price-to-earnings ratio relative to its industry tend to reduce its upside potential.
- Net operating cash flow has decreased to $44.61 million or 32.51% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing the cash generation rate to the industry average, the firm's growth is significantly lower.

Slight correction - the church is St Mary's. St Michaels is about a 1/2 km to the left

Oscar's Double-Duty Nursery
My Room
Name: Oscar (6 months)
Mister Oscar's room came together in a bit of an organic way. Our house is small and old - two bedroom/one bath and 1100 square feet, built in 1894 - so we knew from the beginning that my husband's office would have to take on double-duty as a nursery for as long as they both can stand it.
Our style is a combination of vintage/antique/clean/minimal/bright and on a budget. The Gray Owl paint from Benjamin Moore was selected a couple years ago because of it's flexibility and super calm vibe. Several years ago we found the neat-o vintage school map at a local antique mall and never did anything with it. We dug it out and used it as color-inspiration for the rest of the nursery... it's got amazing greens, yellows and oranges. Our kid may grow up with a cold-war era understanding of Europe, but oh well. I knew I didn't want ANY pastels in the color scheme.
My mom refinished an old dresser they weren't using in a bright yellow I picked out. I made the bird mobile and wall art above the crib (Jenny Lind) and created a picture wall of famous Oscars. A dear friend made the quilt by hand after sneaking a peak at my nursery Pinterest board, and another friend lent us her sweet mod rocker. I sewed the gray chevron curtains using fabric from Tonic Living, and Jon's desk/file cabinet are gray/teal from CB2 that helped pull all the colors together. The lamp was $40 from Lamps Plus. The built-in bookshelf has my husband's "smartypants" academic tomes on the top half and Oscar's books and toys on the lower half. I don't think we spent more than $400 on the whole thing, and it's so bright and cheerful, just like Mister Oscar!
Thanks, Emily! Readers, visit Emily at The Graphic Hedgehog.

I'm curious how it's working out practically to have a shared office and nursery. That was our original plan at our previous home but instead I turned a hall closet into a mini office (we called it a "cloffice").
Very cute, I love the yellow dresser. And Oscar is adorable.

MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) - Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan will help U.S. Senate hopeful Tommy Thompson raise some more ad money for the final five weeks of the campaign.
The Thompson camp said Tuesday that Ryan will appear with the former governor on October 14th at the Harley-Davidson museum in Milwaukee.
Other details of the visit were not immediately released.
The event should provide a financial boost for the Thompson campaign – which went broke after a hard-fought four-way primary just over a month-and-a-half ago.
Polls show Thompson to be in a tight race with Madison House Democrat Tammy Baldwin for the Senate seat to be given up by retiring Democrat Herb Kohl.
Ryan, the House Budget Chairman from Janesville, will also pay a visit to Milwaukee this Saturday night for a fundraiser for the Romney-Ryan ticket.

LiveAs it happened: Decision to close Culcheth sixth form to be scrutinised
This live event has finished
- The decision by the council to close the sixth form at Culcheth High School will be discussed at a scrutiny meeting at the Town Hall at 6.30pm.
- The sixth form was due to close its doors for the final time on August 31.
- The decision to close the sixth form was linked to dwindling pupil numbers and financial implications for the school.
That's all for tonight. Thanks for staying with us.
Speaking after the meeting, Clr Vobe said:
"We are very grateful to the scrutiny committee for referring this matter back to the executive board.
"We thank members of all political colours for listening to our arguments and putting the best interests of our young people at the heart of tonight's decision."
To summarise, all three concerns 'called in' by Clr Vobe will now be referred back to the council's executive board for advice.
The meeting has now come to a close.
The two other issues will also be referred back to the council for advice.
These are:
Professional advice was not given due consideration.
Three in favour. Two against. Two abstentions.
The decision lacked clarity of aims and desired outcomes.
Five in favour. Two against.
Clr Walker says he would like to refer the decision back to the executive board for advice.
This has been seconded.
Six have voted in favour of this action. One against.
This is on the grounds that alternative options and their likely effects on the social, economic and environmental well-being of the town were not considered.
Clr Walker said it should be referred back to the executive board so that they can look at ways that might help the school improve its offer of a sixth form to increase numbers.
I am not convinced enough help was given to the sixth form to remedy the situation, claims one committee member.
The debate has now begun.
The first point being discussed is that professional advice was not given due consideration.
Clr Froggatt said this did not happen.
Clr Higgins has now backtracked and said he will allow a debate.
Clr Froggatt has consequently withdrawn his proposal to remove the chair.
'Unbelievable' 'outrageous' are some of the comments coming from the public gallery.
Clr Froggatt has proposed to move the chair. This has now been seconded by Clr Vobe.
This is over chairman Clr Higgins decision to take a simple yes or no vote without discussion.
Clr Froggatt said concerns have already been raised about transparency and by refusing to allow a debate will only add to this.
"I want a debate before I have a vote," Clr Froggatt added.
A council representative has claimed it was 'a responsible approach' to make school leavers aware that the sixth form could potentially closure.
It was again claimed that Ofsted highlighted that the governing body understands the school 'well'.
It was the governing body who proposed the closure of the sixth form.
Clr Vobe said: "When did we as a local authority first become aware that there was falling pupil numbers at the sixth form?"
It has been stated that it was about two years ago.
With regards to the council supporting UTCW, Clr Froggatt said: "This council has supported a competitor but has not supported one of its own."
Clr Froggatt has now raised concerns about the school's marketing strategy - in particular the lack of to investigate how it could attract more pupils to stay on at the sixth form.
Officers did get involved with supporting that, said the council representative.
Clr Froggatt has questioned some of the points made by the council with regards to subsidies to post 16 education.
He said money is being given to open a sixth form but no money is being given to protect sixth forms.
This is in reference to the UTCW.
The council representative said that this was not comparable.
She also outlined an Ofsted report which praised the governing body for making tough decisions in reference to the decision to propose the closure of the sixth form.
She denied that the executive board had not considered the proposal fully.
The executive board supported the governing body's decision to use the limited resources to benefit a large number of pupils aged 11 to 16 at the high school rather than the small numbers that exist at the sixth form.
The complexities of the decision were considered fully enabling the executive board to make an informed decision, she said.
She said the decision was 'not taken lightly'.
The decision was made after hearing evidence of declining pupil numbers - there are currently only 58 pupils at the sixth form and half will be leaving at the end of July.
It is no longer an effective use of financial resources, she added.
Executive board member for children's services Clr Jean Carter will now be responding to the case put forward.
Clr Vobe says there has been a 'cycle of decline' which has caused courses to be dropped and numbers to continue to drop.
But the drop has also been fuelled by the freeze in admissions, he added.
When prospective students at the school were asked if they would stay on at the sixth form, 56 answered 'maybe'.
Clr Vobe added that 63% of those who objected to the closure expressed dissatisfaction at the way dwindling pupil numbers were dealt with.
Clr Bretherton is now speaking about the decision and how this will affect neighbouring areas.
He said this will provide 'logistical difficulties' to students who will need to travel further at an increased cost.
There has been a significant amount of objections that must be taken into consideration, he added.
Clr Matt Smith is now putting forward the case.
"We should be working to improve post 16 education and not reducing the availability'" he said.
Clr Vobe has now brought up the decision by the council to give the University Technical College Warrington £115,000 worth of land.
The council has also spent £50,000 in staff time.
Chairman Clr Higgins has questioned the relevance of this information.
This appears to have hit a few nerves with members of the public, who clearly disagree with Clr Higgins quizzing Clr Vobe on the issue.
Clr Vobe has argued that these figures are relevant to his case as it outlines how other post 16 education facilities have been aided by the council.
All educational establishments in the town should be treated equally, he claimed.
Clr Vobe said there is 'a depth of support' that exists to keep the sixth form open.
He has also raised concerns about the validity of the consultation.
He also questioned the decision to suspend applications to the sixth form, which would naturally fuel the decline in pupil numbers.
It was also stated that this will not just affect the community in which the school lies but neighbouring areas such as Winwick, Rixton, Hollins Green and Glazebrook.
Clr Chris Vobe, who 'called-in' the decision, is now outlining his case.
To summarise, the decision was 'called-in' following a meeting by the council's executive board on June 10.
All concerns raised will be heard at the meeting.
The meeting has now started. The meeting will be chaired by Clr Tony Higgins.
Clr Chris Vobe is expected to open proceedings.

HappyMisery says
That figure of 20-30 pupils who would attend is rubbish. I know that all 22 members of my childs form were planning on using the Sixth Form and thats just one class in year 11 alone. They didn't consult early enough and teachers were telling the kids to apply for colleges before the consultation even started. Smoke and mirrors. Nothing more.
The meeting will start at 6.30pm. Stay tuned for live coverage.

Culcheth sixth form to close following years of dwindling numbers, click here.
But in the executive board meeting on June 10, it was decided that the school's governing body would be able to use its financial resources more effectively should the sixth form be closed.
The council received hundreds of objections – with some sent in before the consultation period was even launched.
The vast majority of responses were as a result of a Save Culcheth Sixth Form campaign which had 829 objections.
The council also received 179 objections via email and post.
A further list of 158 names was also submitted.
The primary reason for closing the sixth form was down to dwindling pupil numbers.
In the academic year 2013 to 2014, only 57 students attended the sixth form - despite 200 places on offer.
It has also been claimed that only 20 to 30 year 11 pupils were likely to choose Culcheth High School Sixth Form in September 2014.
The decision was 'called-in' as it is alleged that:
• Professional advice has not been given due consideration
• The decision lacks clarity of aims and desired outcome
• Alternative options and their likely effects on the social, economic and environmental well-being of the town have not been considered
Speaking before the meeting, Clr Vobe said: "Ward councillors from Culcheth and Rixton will use the scrutiny process to present detailed evidence regarding the proposed closure of Culcheth Sixth Form.
"We believe there are a number of important points that deserve greater consideration, particularly in respect of the governance of the school and the way in which the sixth form has been marketed.
"It is important to stress that scrutiny does not have the power to overturn a decision, but it can refer the matter back to the council's executive board.
"I look forward to making the case on behalf of residents tonight."
The sixth form was set to close on August 31 following years of dwindling pupil numbers.
The closure was given the green light at a council executive board meeting on June 10 where members voted unanimously in support of the governors' decision to shut down the sixth form on Warrington Road.
But the decision was 'called-in' as part of the overview and scrutiny process by Clr Chris Vobe (Culcheth, Glazebury and Croft - LAB), who strongly opposes the closure.
The decision by the council to close the sixth form at Culcheth High School is to be discussed at a scrutiny meeting at the Town Hall at 6.30pm.
At tonight's meeting, its members will decide if the executive board adhered to all of the 'decision-making principals of the council'.
It is worth noting that the scrutiny committee cannot overturn the decision but could refer the decision back to the executive board.

An amazing video of pro skater Kilian Martin pulling off his moves while impeccably dressed with pieces from renowned brands such as Cerruti, Dior Homme, Church's and Giorgio Armani. Love the contrast of the streetstyle nature of skating with the more formal aspect of the beautifully put together looks - especially the combination of high cropped dress pants with bold colored socks and classic oxford shoes, all on top of a skateboard… add to that the suave performance of Kilian and the result couldn't be other than truly outstanding.

You've just helped your friend carry loads of heavy boxes into his new apartment and now your back is hurting. Not only that, but you've planned a long car trip for the next few days. All of a sudden, you're filled with trepidation at the thought of all those hours spent sitting.
No doubt, back pain can cramp your lifestyle, not to mention causing lost days at work or other consequences. Such fall-out often spurs the legions with chronic back problems to learn proper body mechanics to ease pain, prevent flare-ups, and protect the back.
Although poor body mechanics can cause back pain, don't always assume that they're to blame, says Scott D. Boden, MD, director of the Emory Spine Center in Atlanta and a spokesman for the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.
"Certainly, if you are doing a lot of lifting with bad mechanics, you can increase the risk of back injury or a strained muscle," Boden says. "But I think it's also important to understand that many back problems and even back injuries occur just with normal mechanics. The assumption that 'I must have done something wrong' really isn't always true. Sometimes, somebody can just bend over to tie their shoe and they could end up with a disk herniation or an inflamed or irritated nerve root."
However, good body mechanics -- defined as correct ways to move your body and back -- can certainly help. Here are a few pointers on how to lift, sit and stand properly.
Lifting: "You really want to lift with your legs, not with your back," Boden says. "You want to squat down and pick it up and stand up, as opposed to bending at the waist."
"Another thing that can be particularly dangerous is lifting and twisting at the same time," he says.
For example, you might be lifting a box from the floor to a table behind you. "If you're lifting and turning at the same time to put the box up on the table, there's something about the combined lifting and twisting that is probably somewhat risky mechanics," Boden says, "as opposed to bending at the knees, lifting up the box and literally turning your whole body with your feet, rather than twisting your back."
Be realistic, too, about what you can handle, Boden says. "Know your limits and get help when you're lifting something that you know is too heavy."
According to the Nicholas Institute of Sports Medicine and Athletic Trauma (NISMAT) at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York, these are step-by-step instructions for proper lifting:
- Stand close to the object with your feet spread apart, about the width of your shoulders.
- Squat, bending your knees and hips, while keeping your back in proper alignment.
- Contract your stomach muscles.
- Lift with your leg muscles, not your back. Take care not to lift and twist at the same time.
- If you're lifting the object with another person, do it in unison. One person should say when to lift, walk, and unload.

At this end of the Earth, there's still beer!
KODIAK, Alaska — On a cool evening before the onset of winter, beer drinkers met to toast to the latest installation of the Kodiak Island Brewing Co. With Xtratuf boots and windbreakers still on, these craft-brew lovers sampled the likes of Liquid Sunshine, Night Watch Porter and the ever-cheeky Sarah Pale Ale — all beers that can't be found anywhere else.

seminar overview
Tuesday 29th January 2013
11:00 - 11:30 Theatre 1
Online engagement: what to do if you build it and they don't come
Martin Baker, Managing Director, The Corporate eLearning Consortium and Owen Ferguson, Product Development Director, GoodPractice
It doesn't matter whether it's an LMS, a mobile learning initiative or the latest and greatest social learning platform. None of these online and digital tools will add value unless people actually use them.
In this seminar, we look at how you can measure the level of engagement in your online initiative, and what you can do when it's not working.
The session will cover:
- A simple model that outlines conditions that must exist for online engagement
- The signals that tell you something is or isn't working
- Learning from the big players – if it's good enough for Google and Facebook…
- Lessons learned the hard way – tactics that work, tactics that don't

An Anamosa man was airlifted to the hospital after a crash north of Solon on Wednesday morning.
Larry Albert Shelton, 74, of Anamosa, was taken by Air Care to University of Iowa Hospitals after his 2007 Ford Taurus rolled into a field just before 6 a.m. Wednesday, according to the Iowa State Patrol.
Officials said Shelton was southbound on Highway 1 north of Solon and was in the northbound lane passing a line of slow-moving southbound traffic when another southbound vehicle merged into the northbound lane.
The merged forced Shelton's vehicle onto the east shoulder. Shelton then entered the east ditch and struck a field driveway, rolling his vehicle into a field.
Shelton was wearing a seatbelt at the time. His condition is unknown.
The crash remains under investigation by the Iowa State Patrol.

Fans of Twilight 'Breaking Dawn' are trying hard to convince the powers that be to do more for the next upcoming movies of the Twilight Saga. Twilight Breaking Dawn, one of the more intense stories of the series is far more intimate and fans want to see it on the silver screen. Putting together a petition, the fans are encouraging the Summit Media to get on the ball and mirror the book so that it is far more factual.
This sounds odd as the majority of the people watching this film have never read any of the books. Also it is obvious that if there was a R-Rating, half of the audience would need to drag their parents along to the theater to watch the movie with them. The demographics of the film is such that the tweens and teens like going with their girlfriends to check out the film.
Another major detail making the films PG-13 is from the author herself, Ms. Meyer who made sure that the audience was seeing appropriate images by putting it in her contract. This stipulation will be honored at all costs as the movie is so successful.

What a great way to add ribbon to your projects. This is a must have for paper crafters and scrappers everywhere. I have all six design templates and I am very pleased with them all! Easy to use and the coordinating ribbon makes adding ribbon to project even more beautiful!
This is a great tool, but for me it is very hard to use because you have to put a lot of pressure into the punch. It has a very clean punch even with thin paper. I would recommend this product but first try it before you buy.
I combined the flower with the leaf stencil and place one flower with two leaves in two corners on a page and they look great. Such a fun technique. I have all six stencils now.
Very easy to use! Can thread the ribbon through easily!

Devin Ebanks joins Kevin Jones as the second former Mountaineer to suit up in the NBA Summer League.
Every year a new crop of NBA prospects endure the same thing. It is a bit of a 'rite of passage.' These prospects log tons of frequent flier miles traveling all over the country to visit and workout for NBA teams.
Former West Virginia University star Kevin Jones etched his name in the WVU record books and is preparing for the next step in his career, which should include an opportunity to make an NBA roster.
Jones has already worked out for three NBA teams and has countless more workouts coming up. Jones visited the Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors and Oklahoma City Thunder. He will visit the Chicago Bulls this weekend and the Miami Heat early next week.
"It's tiring," Jones said with a smile, "But you have to think about the ultimate goal and that is to make a team. There are 60 picks and you are trying to be one of those picks. When you are tired, that is all you have to think about. Think about the sacrifices you made to get to this point and it is all worth it at the end. "
Jones sacrificed a potential paycheck a year ago and decided to come back to WVU for his senior season and improve his draft stock. He was projected to be a late second round pick at best in the two-round draft last year. Now he is projected as a late first round pick to early second round pick and his stock could rise following these workouts and the NBA scouting combine.
"It was definitely great to get that experience (last year)," Jones stated. "Just the fact that I went through the process and got some good feedback and was able to put that feedback into play. It was definitely a great advantage for me and I am glad I stayed for my senior year."
In the past, several former Mountaineers have decided to workout elsewhere leading up to the draft. The new state-of-the-art practice facility is keeping the Mount Vernon, New York native right here in Morgantown to continue working out and prepare for a shot at fulfilling his dream.
"It's definitely a major advantage," Jones exclaimed. "It's an environment that you are comfortable in and you know everybody here. Everybody is willing to help you from my strength coach, Coach Andy (Kettler) to my trainer Rod Baxter who came here from New York to workout with me. It has been a family environment and I couldn't ask for anything else."
It would be easy to get nervous stepping into NBA practice facilities. These organizations provide players with their logoed practice gear. Jones has worn the Celtics green, for example. There is a ton of history in that organization and it could get overwhelming. Jones prepares himself for that prior to each trip and said he is doing a good job of being himself.
"It's a new situation," Jones said. "Every situation is different, but I'm definitely comfortable with the process. This is the first year that I started working out with teams, so that is a different experience all in itself. I've been going through the grind. It's been great. I've been getting great feedback and all I can do is keep working hard."
Mountaineer fans know that if there is one thing KJ will do it is work hard. His work ethic earns praise from WVU Head Coach Bob Huggins every time he gets a chance to discuss it. Jones returned from Oklahoma City on Wednesday and was back in the WVU practice facility on Thursday to continue working on his game.
Jones and his brother, Gerard, recently made a video of Jones' workouts in Morgantown. They wanted to show how hard he is pushing himself to get better. However, what you see in that video is not exactly how the workouts go with the individual NBA teams.
"It is more of a competitive workout as opposed to a one-on-one workout where I am dribbling the basketball," Jones stated. "It's more of a competitive thing where they are trying to teach you some of their philosophies that they follow and they see who commit the fastest to it and I think I've been doing pretty well with that. I've had great competition at all three of the workouts, so the experience has just been great."
The new practice facility in Morgantown is drawing a who's who of former players. Da'Sean Butler, John Flowers and Alex Ruoff are all using the facility. Joe Alexander is expected to join that list next week. Jones' former teammates are offering as much advice as they possibly can.
"They are definitely helping me," Jones said. "They have been through the process and all the workouts and stuff and going against guys in workouts. They are just telling me to by myself basically and work on the stuff that you are not as good at right now. They also tell me don't stray away from what you are really good at and that is what impresses people the most is being consistent at the stuff that you are really good at."
Jones is an outstanding rebounder and that is an understatement. He finished his college career fourth all-time in WVU school history with 1,048 rebounds. He is just the second player in school history to score more than 1,800 points and grab more than 1,000 rebounds. The only other WVU player to achieve that is Jerry West.
"One of the things Coach Huggins always told me is that if you can rebound very good in college, it translates in the NBA," Jones said. "I think a lot of NBA teams are looking for me to be an energy guy and go out and rebound. I shoot the mid-range jumper pretty well. I just want to go out and prove my worth and prove how I can make some organization better with my talents."
Jones made a name for himself at WVU for his play on the court and his attitude off of it. KJ never got into trouble around town. Anyone who saw him away from the Coliseum talked about his great attitude. Perhaps the most reassuring part of this 'grind' is that KJ has maintained that great attitude and perspective.
"I'm getting enjoyment out of it," Jones smiled. "Just the fact that people want me to come to their workouts and consider me for the NBA, which has been a childhood dream of mine, that's enjoyment in itself. I'm just taking everything in right now and getting ready for every workout I go to."
Up next for Jones, a visit to Chicago.

Our range of family run bed and breakfast pensions offer friendly hospitality and comfortable accommodation at reasonable prices. Great value to ski Austria's most extensive ski area.
Our snow pensions are the equivalent of Lastminute.com's "Top Secret Hotels". If you're not fussy about exactly where in Söll you stay but do want good quality accommodation in a great resort at a killer price, then this option is probably for you.
Our Snow Pensions are located as close to the village as possible, but no more than 2km from the centre. Alternatively you will be allocated in an existing Directski.com property.
If you are booking more than 1 room, they may not be allocated in the same property. However, we'll do our very best to keep small groups together. Economy rooms may have shared bathroom facilities so may be worth paying the extra amount for absolute privacy.
In Söll, the ski lifts are located slightly outside of the village which means that most people need to take the ski bus. With this in mind, the Snow Pensions in this resort offer real value for money as there's no real benefit in paying extra to guarantee yourself a slap-bang-in-the-middle location.

An Action-packed Weekend of BMX Racing this Weekend in East Moline
July 18, 2013
More than one-thousand racers from around the country will compete this weekend at a track in the Quad Cities. It's the first time a "USA BMX National" will be held at the East Moline BMX Speedway.
Paul DePauw, track director, says it'll be the biggest BMX race ever held here. And only 22 out of 380 tracks across the country are chosen to host it. He says the sport appeals to many kids because it's individual and action-packed.
Dozens of volunteers have been preparing the dirt and asphalt track. DePauw says they also built a three-story building to use for registration, as a starter box and an announcing booth. All the money for the track and other improvements came from donations.
Kids and adults from five to 50-years-old will compete. A special track is also set up for toddlers to race, too. DePauw says they ride "striders" -- bikes without wheels that help them learn to balance.
Registration begins tomorrow at noon and races will be held Saturday and Sunday. The track is located on the Rock Island County Fairgrounds, behind Reynolds Ford. Sponsors include DePauw and the East Moline BMX Speedway, the city, the Quad Cities Sports Commission, convention and visitors bureau, plus local hotels and restaurants.

Great product! Be careful with the bichromatic powder. It stains.. even surfaces you think you can just wipe clean (like ceramic bathroom countertops). Have some 409 on hand. Otherwise, be careful with you dust for prints.. don't dust anything valuable, because the powder might stain it pretty badly. Practice on stuff you can just throw away, like plastic water bottles, FedEx envelopes, etc.

Somenath Mitra, PhD of the New Jersey Institute of
Technology (NJIT) has developed an inexpensive solar material that can be
sprayed on surfaces or printed on purchase levitra plastic with an ink jet printer. "The process is simple,†said Mitra, "Someday
homeowners will even be able to online viagra order print sheets of these solar cells with
inexpensive home-based inkjet printers. Consumers can then slap the finished
product on a wall, roof or billboard to create their own power stations.†Well...if he says so! Though I don't want to think about how much an ink cartridge of fullerene is going to cost us.
Mitra's invention, a "Fullerene single wall carbon nanotube complex for polymer bulk heterojunction photovoltaic cells,†is featured as the June 21, 2007 cover story of cheap 25mg viagra the Journal of Materials Chemistry published by the Royal Society of Chemistry.
"Developing organic solar cells from polymers, however, is a
cheap and viagra samples potentially simpler alternative†to silicon cells, said Mitra.
We foresee a great deal of interest in our work because solar cells can be inexpensively printed or simply painted on exterior building walls and/or roof tops. Imagine some day driving in your hybrid car with a solar panel painted on the http://www.eastgreenbushlibrary.org/inexpensive-cialis roof, which is producing electricity to drive the engine. The opportunities are endless.The solar cell developed at NJIT uses a carbon nanotube complex. Nanotubes can conduct current better than any conventional electrical wire. "Actually, nanotubes are significantly better conductors than copper,†Mitra added.
Mitra and his research team took the carbon nanotubes and combined them with tiny carbon Buckyballs (known as fullerenes) to form snake-like structures. Buckyballs trap electrons, although they can't make electrons flow. Add sunlight to excite the polymers, and the buckyballs will grab the electrons. Nanotubes, behaving like copper wires, will then be able to make the electrons or current flow.
"Using this unique combination in an organic solar cell recipe can enhance the cost levitra lowest efficiency of future painted-on solar cells,†said Mitra. "Someday, I hope to see this process become an inexpensive energy alternative for households around the world.â€

ANN ARBOR, Mich. - The NHL is prepared for snow that could cause some havoc at the Winter Classic.
Somewhere between 10 and 15 centimetres of snow are forecasted to fall in Ann Arbor from very early Wednesday through game time.
That's an issue for the 100,000-plus fans who are expected to fill Michigan Stadium for the outdoor game.
It could also impact the quality of conditions for the game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings.
The Weather Channel is on site, and NHL chief operating officer John Collins said the league is getting hourly reports on what to expect.
Collins said there is "flexibility" to move the start time back from 1 p.m., but he also expressed optimism that it will go off as scheduled. The 2011 Winter Classic at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh was moved back to 8 p.m. because of rain.

The use of upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopes has revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, and colon (large intestine). The last remaining frontier in the intestines has been the small intestine. Wireless capsule endoscopy allows physicians to visualize the inside of the intestines from the esophagus through to the colon, but capsule endoscopy has limitations, the most notable of which are the inability to control the capsule's passage and to perform therapy, such as biopsy and electrocautery. Although capsule endoscopy is likely to remain an important diagnostic procedure because of its simplicity, the limitations of capsule endoscopy have been overcome by the development of balloon endoscopy, also known as enteroscopy.
