The present study was designed to examine how adults, children with typical language development (TLD), and children with Specific Language Impairment (SLI) process words from sparse and dense phonological neighborhoods, using the Cross Modal Picture-Word Interference Paradigm. The participants were asked to label a picture presented on a computer screen, while ignoring auditory distractors (interfering words or IWs) presented over headphones. The target items were manipulated according to neighborhood density (high and low density words), and the auditory distractors were either identical to the target, a neutral distractor (good), phonologically related (by rhyme), or unrelated to the target item. The interfering words were presented either before the target item ( -750, -450, or -150 ms ) before the picture, or after the picture ( +150 ms ). Participants were asked to name the pictures as quickly as possible, while ignoring the auditory distractors. Reaction times and error rates were measured. Eleven children with SLI (6;5-10;1), ten children with typical language development (6;10-10;2), and 22 young adults participated in the study. The results revealed that adults demonstrated increased sensitivity to rhyme-related distractors in the Low Density condition only, reflecting less detailed phonological representations of low density words. Children with TLD and SLI both demonstrated less interference of related IWs in both the high and low density conditions. There were no significant group differences in reaction time or overall error rates. However, the SLI group produced significantly more errors on low density words than the TLD group. In addition, children with SLI demonstrated similar response time differences for the related and unrelated items for both density types, while the children with TLD appeared to benefit more from the related distractors in the low density condition. The results are discussed in relation to the Lexical Restructuring Model (Metsala & Walley, 1998).
The current information on the vocal repertoire of the North American River Otter is very limited. To date there have been no direct studies conducted on their repertories. In this study, I examined the vocal behavior of 12 captive river otters. The discriminant function analysis suggests that river otters have 4 distinct call types with 7 sub-call types and one call the whistle is unique to one group of pups. The results of the Kruskal-Wallis comparing acoustical structures shows strong evidence for the presence of individuality with some individuals showing greater differences in comparison to the others. I also examined the differences in sexes and age groups, and the results show that unique calls are present, and there are significant differences across groups when comparing acoustical structures. Finally, I examined the uses of vocalizations, and the results show a positive correlation between the duration, max frequency, and max power of the call and the arousal state of the individual producing the call. Specific call types also showed tendencies to be produced when the individual was in a particular interaction (asocial or social) and when in a particular arousal state.
Routing in Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTN) is active area of research and acquires the attention of researchers as being the most adequate solution for the problem of intermittently connection in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). The challenge is to find a routing algorithm that can deal with dynamic environment causing networks to split and merge, considering nodes mobility. In this dissertation we enhance the performance of DTN routing protocols in Delay Tolerant Mobile Ad Hoc Networks by accomplishing the following goals to address the routing challenges: * Design a new probabilistic routing protocol based on history of encountered nodes. * Determination of strength and weakness of DTN routing protocols by comparison. * Enhancing DTN routing protocols by inclusion of study of the impact of link availability on performance of the DTN-based protocols * A Cross Layer Design (CLD) to enhance service quality of some common MANET-based routing protocols. v We have designed a DTN-based probabilistic routing algorithm using the concept of History of Encounters, HEPRA. Our routing protocol relies on the knowledge of the mobility of nodes and uses the history of encountered nodes to predict its future suitability to deliver messages to next node toward destination. The probabilistic routing approach is built on a store-carry-forward network to deliver messages to final destination in MANET environment. We evaluate the performance of HEPRA in various network environment behaviors. We present an evaluation and analysis of performances of some common DTN routing protocols including HEPRA in terms of different parameters in MANET environment. We illustrate the behaviors of the DTN routing protocols in terms of various parameters and variables. This evaluation presents the strengths and weakness of selected protocols. We study the impact of link availability as a parameter of the physical layer environment on the performance of DTN routing protocols. This study is the first research analysis of the impact of physical layer parameters on the performance of DTN routing protocols. We demonstrate through the simulation how those protocols act against changes in network environment. We propose a CLD to attain a reliable data transmission in MANET. We present a model that allows the network layer to adjust its routing protocol dynamically based on Signal Noise Ratio (SNR) and Received Power (RP) along the end-to-end routing path for each transmission link to improve the end-to-end routing performance in MANET environment. In this dissertation, we present the design basis for those contributions, illustrate and evaluate our design efforts, and discuss the advantages of our models.
This paper explores the topic of religious conversion in relation to Pierre Bourdieu's theory of habitus, with a focus on Catholic Latina converts to Sunni Islam. Bourdieu suggests that these types of religious choices are not choices at all, but predetermined by an individual's history, culture, and setting. That is, an individual already has dispositions that are taken for granted. While this study's participants report that Islam is a new religion for them and not a continuation of their Catholic faith (as habitus would suggest,) this study shows that these converts retain dispositions that are consistent with their previous religious identity. However, there are limits to the theory of habitus when analyzing complex, patterns of behavior including religious conversion. Therefore, a theory of reflexive-identity formation is also considered. I argue that these Latina converts are breaking down traditional religious boundaries and, in doing so, they embody the complexity of a modern identity.
Typical theoretical treatments of shock wave interactions are based on a continuum approach, which cannot resolve the spatial variations in solids with nano-scale porous structure. Nano-structured materials have the potential to attenuate the strength of traveling shock waves because of their high surface-to-volume ratio. To investigate such interactions we have developed a molecular dynamics simulation model, based on Short Range Attractive interactions. A piston, modeled as a uni-directional repulsive force field translating at a prescribed velocity, impinges on a region of gas which is compressed to form a shock, which in turn is driven against an atomistic solid wall. Periodic boundary conditions are used in the directions orthogonal to the piston motion, and we have considered solids based on either embedded atom potentials (target structure) or tethered potential (rigid piston, holding wall). Velocity, temperature and stress fields are computed locally in both gas and solid regions, and displacements within the solid are interpreted in terms of its elastic constants. In this work we present results of the elastic behavior of solid structures subjected to shock wave impact and analysis of energy transport and absorption in porous materials. The results indicated that the presence of nano-porous material layers in front of a target wall reduced the stress magnitude detected inside and the energy deposited there by about 30 percent while, at the same time, its loading rate was decreased substantially
This dissertation examines the function of dialogue within modernist fiction, and argues that it can be seen to assume a substantially expanded and diversified role in early twentieth-century narrative texts. While existing accounts of fictional speech stress its capacity to develop character or advance plot, I contend that modernist authors began using speech differently than it had historically been used in the novel: less for characterizing and plot-advancing purposes, than for rhetorical and poetic ones. My primary case studies include a cross-section of British and American modernist texts - including Henry James's The Ambassadors, Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, James Joyce's "The Dead," Virginia Woolf's The Waves, and William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury and Absalom, Absalom! - as well as examples from post-War Italian narrative, which reflect the influence of Anglophone modernism. Through close, comparative analyses of how fictional voice is deployed in these texts, and by drawing on a range of literary and narrative theory (by Mikhail Bakhtin, Franco Moretti, and Sharon Cameron among others) I demonstrate that these writers frequently "make" conversation less to express character, than to communicate ideas or affects that exceed character. In particular, I disclose the tendency for discourse within these fictional environments to belong to more than one speaker - or conversely, to none. By challenging the attributive logic used to make sense of represented speech, these texts encourage us to refocus our critical attention away from discrete utterances, and toward the larger system of utterances that emerges in a given work. In this way, I argue, modernist fiction seems to demand (and reward) a new mode of reading and interpreting fictional dialogue: one which takes into account how characters say, as well as what they say, and which treats dialogue's form as at least as rich a source of meaning as its content.
A growing body of work has documented impairments in emotional facial expression (i.e., masked facies) in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). These impairments negatively impact patients' social interactions and functioning in daily life. However, little attention has been given to remediating facial emotional expression deficits in PD. Preliminary research has demonstrated that the treatment of voice using the Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT®; Ramig et al., 1995) has beneficial effects on limited aspects of facial expression in PD (Spielman et al., 2003). The present study extends the literature by examining the effects of two voice treatments on facial expression in PD in a comprehensive way, including facial mobility (FM) and three aspects of facial emotional expressivity (i.e., frequency [EF], variability [EV] and intensity [EI]). Participants included 56 posers, individuals who produced emotional and non-emotional monologues, and 18 raters, individuals who rated posers' facial expressions from video-recorded monologues. Ratings were made on a 7-point Likert scale for the four aspects of facial expression. Raters were trained to criterion, and reliability was high for each emotional expression variable (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient range .85 to .90). The study included four poser groups: 3 PD groups whose posers were randomly assigned into an LSVT, Articulation Voice Treatment (ARTIC), or a no treatment control group, and a demographically matched healthy control group (NC). Findings revealed that PD male posers displayed impaired facial expression at baseline compared to NCs on all variables examined, although PD women did not differ from NCs for any aspect of facial expression. Treatment findings showed that patients who received LSVT were rated as having higher FM, EF, EV, and EI after treatment, four weeks later, than at baseline. This increase was not observed for the 3 other poser groups. It is speculated that LSVT improves facial expression because facial and vocal expression are emotional communication channels that exist within a larger network of emotional processing. Facial and vocal emotional expression are linked at several levels of neural organization: cortical, subcortical, and cranial nerve. The broader clinical implications of our findings are that masked facies can be remediated using LSVT.
"National Physiology" investigates the intertwined discourses of literature and medicine in the proto-disciplinary early American world. It makes three interventions. First, in contrast to existing scholarship that has actively neglected it, I bring to light an important history of early American medicine. Second, I show how American writers produced medical models of their own. Literary figures did not simply reflect medicine in their texts, but used fiction to craft medical philosophies, which they believed directly promoted the health of the nation. Finally, I argue these histories were not separate, but intimately connected: doctors and writers worked together to craft an American body that was metonymically linked to the healthy nation. In mining the relationship between medicine and literature in the early republic, my project is the first to offer a genealogy of the Medical Humanities in America; it also suggests that by looking at this history, we will find promising new models for interdisciplinary scholarship. The writings of prominent doctors and writers who were friends, teachers, and colleagues in the early U.S. political and medical capital anchor this study. My dissertation traces the development of a "national physiology" that understood the body and nation always to be, in founding father Benjamin Rush's words "tremendous, oscillatory mass[es] of matter," systems defined by motion and flux. National physiology was based in the connected mechanisms of circulation and sympathy that were always simultaneously physiological, philosophical, and political. I demonstrate how American medical philosophy broke with European models and developed dynamic notions that offered non-hierarchical alternatives. There was an American school of medicine, and this school used literary forms as central rhetorical tools to promote health. Rather than be surprised by the prevalence of doctor-writers, I suggest such figures reveal the generic fluidity of early American discourse. Tracing a literary history from Charles Brockden Brown to Weir Mitchell, my project illuminates the medical and political work of early American fiction. Turning to periods when disciplinary boundaries were not fully formed offers exciting possibilities both for future Medical Humanities, with its investments in unraveling disciplinary distinctions, and for providing insight into (inter)disciplinary work more broadly.
Sensory input is inherently ambiguous and complex, so perception is believed to be achieved by combining incoming sensory information with prior knowledge. One model envisions the grouping of sensory features (the local dimensions of stimuli) to be the outcome of a predictive process relying on prior experience (the global dimension of stimuli) to disambiguate possible configurations those elements could take. Contour integration, the linking of aligned but separate visual elements, is one example of perceptual grouping. Kanizsa-type illusory contour (IC) stimuli have been widely used to explore contour integration processing. Consisting of two conditions which differ only in the alignment of their inducing elements, one induces the experience of a shape apparently defined by a contour and the second does not. This contour has no counterpart in actual visual space - it is the visual system that fills-in the gap between inducing elements. A well-tested electrophysiological index associated with this process (the IC-effect) provided us with a metric of the visual system's contribution to contour integration. Using visually evoked potentials (VEP), we began by probing the limits of this metric to three manipulations of contour parameters previously shown to impact subjective experience of illusion strength. Next we detailed the developmental trajectory of contour integration processes over childhood and adolescence. Finally, because persons with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) have demonstrated an altered balance of global and local processing, we hypothesized that contour integration may be atypical. We compared typical development to development in persons with ASDs to reveal possible mechanisms underlying this processing difference. Our manipulations resulted in no differences in the strength of the IC-effect in adults or children in either group. However, timing of the IC-effect was delayed in two instances: 1) peak latency was delayed by increasing the extent of contour to be filled-in relative to overall IC size and 2) onset latency was delayed in participants with ASDs relative to their neurotypical counterparts.

Two New THP-Ethiopia Epicenters Inaugurated in 2012
Update to the Global Board
October 2012
THP-Ethiopia successfully inaugurated two epicenters, Enemore and Wurib, both of which are underwritten by investors in Sweden and Australia, respectively. President and CEO Mary Ellen McNish and Vice-President for Africa Programs Dr. Idrissa Dicko were in attendance for both inaugurations (photo). THP-Ethiopia is one of just three Africa Program Countries to have filled the new staff position of PBRMO; this resource undoubtedly contributed to Amharic and English language newspapers in Ethiopia publicizing the inauguration events. On top of this busy inauguration schedule, THP-Ethiopia continued to move ahead in its education and health infrastructure, completing an expanded literacy center and nearing completion of a new health post.
- Epicenter Inaugurations: Over 1,000 community members participated in the inauguration of Enemore and Wurib Epicenters, including guests of honor from the Zone and District Administrations, Epicenter Committee members and THP Global Office and THP-Ethiopia staff. Traditional parades celebrated this milestone in development and women especially attended in large numbers to laud this achievement.
- Education & Literacy: As described in previous reports, THP-Ethiopia has emphasized the maintenance and construction of educational centers, including schools and literacy centers. Over the reporting period, THP-Ethiopia completed a new literacy center while continuing to train new Functional Adult Literacy facilitators. All 26 completed literacy centers are fully functional and aligned with government standards. Five of six epicenters have functioning nursery school classes, with a ratio of 1.2 girls enrolled for every boy!
- Health & Nutrition: THP-Ethiopia has worked with community partners to complete construction at Segenet health post. As with all health posts, once construction is finalized, it will immediately be handed over to the community to begin operations.

Ready? Tuesday of Holy Week
Early Christians would read the parable of the 10 virgins on the Tuesday of Holy Week, reminding themselves to prepare for the coming of the Bridegroom, Jesus Christ. Some evidences point to a reenacting of the story other places in church history.
On this day in Holy Week we are led to ask the question, "Am I ready?" Certainly people weren't ready for the ministry and death of Jesus. Even at this point in the Gospel accounts, we still have relatively little to go on that Jesus will be betrayed and handed over. In the Gospel accounts, Judas is not approached by the chief priests and scribes until the day of Preparation for the Feast of Unleavened Bread. What has to happen is yet to be seen.
Likewise, we are given some clues as to what will be coming when Jesus returns as the Bridegroom of the Church. We know very little of what that will actually be like, and yet, we are called to prepare - to keep our lamps filled with oil.
This is a day for the visionaries and the futurists. It is a day to listen to the cry of the prophet among us. It is a day to prepare with what we have to prepare with. While we may not know the fullness of the reality that we prepare for, we still prepare for it nonetheless.

Waterford — The Millstone Power Station violated safety requirements by not having adequate documentation in place for the steps that plant staff would follow during an emergency to test the radioactivity level of coolant water.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission issued notice of the safety violation on Monday. It was categorized as a "green" finding, the lowest level of safety significance, and is being corrected by the plant, according to the NRC notice.
Josephine Ambrosini, senior resident inspector for the NRC at Millstone, said the safety violation was found during an Aug. 20 emergency preparedness exercise that involved the nuclear power plant and 10 communities in its Emergency Planning Zone. The readings of the coolant water, used to keep the reactor from overheating, are supposed to be taken within 15 minutes of an emergency being declared at the plant, she said. During the exercise, plant staff was able to obtain readings at other locations in the plant to assess radioactivity levels, but did not have the written procedures in place to get the coolant readings. The violation pertained mainly to the Unit 3 reactor, she added.
"The exercise wasn't disrupted by it," she said.
Ken Holt, spokesman for Millstone owner Dominion, said there are interim measures now in place so that if an emergency were to occur, staff has written procedures available to follow to take the coolant readings.
"We are also making permanent changes in the procedures," he said.
The coolant readings, he explained, are used to verify radiation readings taken elsewhere in the plant during an emergency.
Millstone has had one other "green" finding this year. In August, the NRC cited the Unit 3 for inadequate documentation of a design weakness in valves that would shut off water flow during an emergency.
Safety violations are ranked on a four-tiered scale — green, white, yellow and red, with red being the most serious. "Green" findings are those that "are not willful or have no immediate safety consequences" and do not result in fines, Ambrosini said.

It's too soon to know what drove Adam Lanza to massacre 26 children and adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. But early signs suggest that serious mental illness played a role. If so, that — alongside another arsenal — would be a thread connecting last week's atrocity with the recent mass killings in Aurora, Colo.; Phoenix; and Blacksburg, Va.
Since Friday, a wave of outrage and a renewed desire for gun-control laws have swept the country, including Washington. "Enough is enough," Senator Mark Warner, a Virginia Democrat with an "A" rating from the National Rifle Association, said on Monday. "I think most of us realize that there are ways to get to rational gun control."

Crucial home stretch looms for Pioneers, Bears
Denver and Northern Colorado both have a great deal to play for as their respective conference schedules enter the home stretch.
I'll start with Northern Colorado, which unlike Denver, isn't playing for regular-season accolades or for tournament seeding position, but for basic postseason survival. The Bears are currently in a four-way tie for fifth place in the Big Sky, and are one of seven teams — that's almost two-thirds of the conference — within a single game of one another (in the loss column), from 3rd place down to 9th place. Two of those seven teams in the standings logjam will be left out of the postseason entirely, as only the top 7 teams qualify for the conference tournament. So this is an extremely volatile situation.
As I've said before, UNC's schedule sets up quite well for them, particularly compared to the schedules of the other teams in the logjam. If the Bears "take care of business" in their home games against North Dakota on Wednesday and against Southern Utah on March 7 (UNC's finale), they'll finish no worse than 9-11, even if they lose at Eastern Washington and at Portland State on February 28 and March 2. A 9-11 record would probably be enough to get the Bears into the conference tourney, as Eastern Washington and Northern Arizona will probably struggle to get to 9-11, given their far tougher schedules down the stretch. Of course, a road split against EWU/PSU would make things a lot easier for the Bears — and, conversely, a home loss to UND or SUU would make things a whole lot dicier. UNC is in decent position, but has basically no margin for error in Greeley.
Denver, meanwhile, is 13-2 in WAC play — having completed its road schedule with a 7-2 mark in the league — and sits alone in second place after New Mexico State lost at Utah State on Saturday. The Pios now take a two-week break from conference play, with a non-conference BracketBusters showdown at Northern Iowa on Saturday their only remaining game in February.
Then comes the critical three-game homestand that will determine Denver's regular-season fate: March 2 vs. New Mexico State, March 7 vs. Texas-Arlington, and March 9 vs. Louisiana Tech.
Even if Denver beats NMSU and UTA, the finale against LaTech won't mean much unless the Bulldogs (14-0 in WAC play) lose at least once beforehand. Louisiana Tech, which is not participating in BracketBusters (but does play NAIA team Central Baptist on Wedensday), hosts Utah State on February 28 and San Jose State on March 2, then visits New Mexico State on March 7 and Denver on March 9.
If LaTech loses one of its three league games before visiting Magness Arena, and DU beats NMSU and UTA, a Pioneers win on March 9 would create a two-way tie atop the conference standings. Unfortunately for Denver, Louisiana Tech would likely win the tiebreaker — and get the conference tourney #1 seed and NIT auto-bid — because it has the superior RPI, currently #46 to Denver's #93. Obviously that gap would narrow in this scenario, but probably not enough. (Playing an NAIA foe doesn't "count" at all for RPI purposes.)
Thus, if Denver wants the #1 seed and NIT autobid, it must win out and hope Louisiana Tech loses twice in its next three games — most likely to Utah State and NMSU. (San Jose State is 3-11 in the WAC, ranked in the 300s by KenPom, and unlikely to challenge LaTech in Ruston.) But even a single loss by LaTech, most likely against NMSU in Las Cruces, would at least give Denver a shot at a co-championship and a WAC champion banner in the Pios' only year in the league.
Also, regardless of what LaTech does, winning out and finishing 21-8 overall (including a win at Northern Iowa) and 16-2 in the WAC would give Denver a pretty strong argument for an NIT at-large bid, if DU were to lose in the WAC tourney in Vegas.
In terms of conference seeding implications, it's pretty simple. Both the #1 and #2 seeds will face a quarterfinal game against the winner of an opening-round game featuring some combination of San Jose State, Texas State, UTSA and Seattle. Those teams are all pretty bad, so seeding doesn't make too much of a difference there. (The #3 seed will likely face a rested Idaho in the quarterfinals, which is a bit more of a challenge; Idaho gave LaTech a scare Saturday in Moscow. DU could potentially fall to the #3 seed if they lose to NMSU on March 2.)
Then, assuming the favorites win their quarterfinal games, the #1 seed will most likely face the winner of Utah State and Texas-Arlington (it's not clear who will be the #4 and who will be the #5, but those teams appear headed, in whichever order, to the 4-5 game — though there's still a chance that one of them could snag the #3 and drop NMSU into the 4-5 game), while the #2 seed will face the #3 seed. As a practical matter for Denver, this probably means the difference between playing New Mexico State in the semifinals and LaTech in the final, versus playing USU/UTA in the semis and the LaTech/NMSU winner in the final. Thus far, LaTech, NMSU and Denver have looked like the class of the league, so that would seem to make the #1 seed a big advantage (only one game against the WAC's top tier, instead of two). But USU seems to be improving, and if they also get healthier by tourney time, a #4 or #5-seeded Blue Aggies squad could be just as dangerous as NMSU. So seeding might not make a huge difference in that regard.

The Hawks today signed Mario West for the remainder of the season, the team announced.
West had signed consecutive 10-day contracts with the Hawks and, under the rules of the collective bargaining agreement, the team was required to sign him for the rest of the season to retain him. West, a Douglas County and Georgia Tech product, has appeared in eight games and averaged six minutes during his most recent stint with the Hawks.
He played in 117 games for the Hawks from 2007-09 but was cut in training camp last summer. He was playing for the D-League's Maine Red Claws when the Hawks signed him to the first 10-day contract on Jan. 12.

Good for Mario! Now let's find a way to match up with the Magic and win our division!
February 1st, 2010
12:30 pm
MC, could you ask Sund if he will stick to his guns on the 13-man roster? Or said differently, ask him if this takes the Hawks out of thr unning for a vet who may have his contract bought out later this month.

Iso Joe works when he is one on one mostly,but when he is double teamed out of the Iso and decides to force shots instead of swing the ball thats when things get bad…..
Agreed Jean- jamal is alot better at gettn in the lane and either finishing or hitting the open man -JJ ehhh ????
Marvin Gaye Williams – Come on son -is he still a topic of discussion,he shouldnt be unless his name is involved in a trade. Im willing to bet a weeks pay that marvin gets his shot blocked the most for guys6′9 and above. Where has his shot gone, seriously he has'nt been as effective as last year. Sounds like a job for the POLICE…..find that shot
CONGRATZ to my dawg Mario….No more trips to Maine for the heat seeking missle

February 1st, 2010
12:53 pm
Glad to have your ear for a moment. Hope you caught my post several
days/wks. ago in resonse to you about my Paul Silas remark, where I failed to mention him "only as an interim" replacement for Wdsn.
Water under the bridge.
You are correct, in that , players should do some things naturally.
However, in 'Iso-Joe', he needs the middle open. Can't really 'dive'.
Spacing is imperitive.
The problem as I see it is, Wdsn has no system/philosophy to hang his hat on.
The players (many of whom, poor background/coaching,AAU,no fundamentals)
are sheets in the wind. *We used to hang them on a clothes line![sheets]
So they just spot up and hang out.
I can't speak for Big Ray but I really like Joe.
We cannot replace his skill set.
However, if he is gonna bolt…we need to utilize him as an asset.
I think we could get more value in a trade than we could buy with the cash we save from his salary.
Coming soon: Bold trade idea!
I'm certain Mr. Sund is also thinking outside the box.
February 1st, 2010

Glad to have Mario back, makes you wonder what the point of going with Othello at the begining of the season was all about anyway?
February 1st, 2010
1:06 pm
I too want Joe to be a Hawk, too. But he turned us down. now, What can we get for him?
Krypto Nate?
or package him with Marvin for Bosh and Jack?
February 1st, 2010
1:07 pm
Good for Mario. He got pt in the minors and now is playing with more confidence and hitting his free throws. just what you need off the bench.
February 1st, 2010
1:13 pm
Agree with your response from the last blog. I will admit I am a Josh supporter. Even when he plays bad he brings something to the table. Marvin brings absolutely, positively nothing. He truly is the invisible man.
February 1st, 2010
1:16 pm
what the point of going with Othello at the begining of the season was all about anyway?
You already know it was money!
My biggest problem with the Woody complaints is… the guy is winning. The last I checked that was the only thing that mattered.
Around here we act like Woody has championship level talent on the team. He is doing a better job than Phil, Doc, Mike Brown, GPop & George Karl. This guy doesn't have one future HOFamer on this team yet he has them in the hunt with team that have 2 or three.
February 1st, 2010
1:21 pm
Never understood the fascination for a guard who can't handle the ball or score and provides only sporadic defense. Yea he's got alot of energy, but we need another post player. He's wasting a roster spot.
-REEcently Roe!!!
February 1st, 2010
1:23 pm
Last post -iso Joe will it bring world peace, solve the budget and bring universal healthcare- was one of the best in a long time.
Mario's signing doesn't razz my berry but he is a team and fan fave.However, he isn't the answer to what ails the team. The short version of that issue is leadership.
I hereby nominate Jamal Crawford to become the on court leader and off court spokes personof the Atlanta Hawks and the starting point guard.
Because this guy wants to win, knows how to play and how to get the media to work for the team and not against it.
His stints in Chi-town, Gotham City and Baghdad by the Bay have prepared him well for understanding what it realy takes to win and he seems to be as poised and sophisticated as any Hawk of recent vintage. He can and will connect with fans from Bankhead to Buckhead and draw them to the arena with both his on and off court style. He is not a replacement for Joe; he is something even better-the difference.
February 1st, 2010
1:24 pm
Looks like Sund wanted to do this the whole time to save some money…. Not pay Mario for the whole year (and the $1 million) so they let him go to the D-League for half the year then bring him back.
February 1st, 2010
1:31 pm
Why do people want Jamal to start? Are yall crazy? If Jamal starts as a PG, he has to become a facilitator which means he won't have the green light to shoot like he does coming off the bench. Plus what scoring punch would we have coming off the bench? ZaZa? Mo Evans?
And for the last time, Joe>>>>Jamal, but Jamal scores as easily as anybody on the team. Why Hawks "fans" continue to try & compare Joe to JJ is beyond idiotic.
-REEcently Roe!!!
February 1st, 2010
1:33 pm
Now if Woodson will develope this guy, he need someone to take the time to work with him on his shooting. Woodson, is a pretty good coach, but he has an issue with developing young guys. I'm glad they signed this guy for the remainder of the year, if he can avg 6-8ppg, he would get more playing time he could then help on D against Orlando.
February 1st, 2010
1:43 pm
Ill, I like Jamal's off-court personality and his ability to handle the media. He comes across as a truly good guy who answers questions very well and could be a true spokesperson for the Hawks. Neither Joe nor Josh appear to seek the radio interview… Jamal, Al and Marvin are far and away the best interviews (Chill was good too as I recall).

I like Mario a lot, but I think we need a big man off the bench that has an attitude, and who's capable of averaging 10 boards off the bench. I'm not sure we need 5 guards on this team. I think 4 is enough?
February 1st, 2010
2:25 pm
Who would you see in trade talks to better the Hawks for the second half of the season. It is obvious the Hawks do not match up well against big men underneath. If you were Sund, taking contracts for this year and next in consideration, where would you go from here?
February 1st, 2010
2:25 pm
Lacsho, IMO, we have 6 guards, because Mo is more guard than forward.
February 1st, 2010
2:31 pm
AJ, you're right I forgot about mo.
February 1st, 2010
2:33 pm
For what it is worth (and around here, absolutely nothing), the Hawks have had the hardest schedule for the past 25% of their games according to ESPN's John Hollinger. So that would be around the last 10-11 games… our opponents have had a higher winning percentage than any other team in the league.
I'm not sure if anyone has thought this out, but after the ASG, we have 3 "statement games" left against the Lakers, Magic and Cavs. Yes, we play the Cavs two more times but one is the last game of the season. That game will likely feature guys like JJ Hickson, Jamario Moon, Randolph Morris and Mario West getting around 30 minutes each while Lebron, Shaq, Joe and Josh watch from the bench. Assuming that we lose to the Magic in March, we need to 3 more wins to overtake the Magic for the division.
February 1st, 2010
2:55 pm
I posted this on the other blog, but since I'm looking for feedback, here it is again:
One thing I've NEVER understood about Iso-Joe:
Joe will have a smaller defender (say Ray Allen) near the free throw line and instead of simply rising up and shooting a 15 footer, he'll dribble INTO a double team and shoot a highly contested floater. If you are guarded by a smaller defender, as Joe often is, why not just rise up and take the easy shot?
I can't figure this one out. Any ideas, anyone?
February 1st, 2010
2:56 pm
can he guard Dwight?
but… glad to see Mario on board.
February 1st, 2010
3:00 pm
pff… lol… what are you Jamal's agent…? all of that until he goes cold keeps shooting, and gets murdered on d…
February 1st, 2010
3:07 pm
b/c he can beat Ray Allen off the dribble… Joe also dribbles to establish rhythm for a shot… its not that easy to just rise up and shoot over someone who can jump out of a hole (Ray calves are the size of his head). Kobe just didnt rise up… it would take a series of pump fakes and moves… and then a fall away… which is equally as difficult as that floater..
February 1st, 2010
3:23 pm
Sautee, I agree with Dave. Joe doesn't have the vertical lift to simply "rise up" but he does have te strength to over-power his defender (most of the time). Plus, some players who draw contact get a foul called by the ref… just not Joe.
February 1st, 2010
3:26 pm
I'm happy for Mario, he gives great effort and is always attacking. He had a nice rebound in the ORL game, basically out jumping with Dwight. Mario is another guy that is going to see meaningful minutes, which can give the starters some rest.
February 1st, 2010
3:28 pm
I Mus Write,
I'll take that bet on Marvin getting his shot blocked more than any other player 6′9″ and above. Check out the link to 82games.com below:
Marvin gets his close shots blocked 18% of the time. That is a certainly a fair amount but the following players who are 6′9″ or taller in our DIVISION get their shots blocked at a higher rate:
Tyson Chandler – 23%
Vladimir Radmanovic – 23%
Jermaine O'Neal – 22%
Udonis Haslem – 22%
Joe Smith – 20%
Brendan Haywood – 19%
Zaza Pachulia – 19%
In addition, these notable SFs around the league get their shots blocked more than Marvin:
Rudy Gay – 21%
Gerald Wallace – 19%
John Salmons 23%
Martell Webster – 24%
Rudy Fernandez – 21%
Corey Brewer – 19%
Kevin Durant and Michael Beasley get their shots blocked only slightly less than Marvin at 17%.
Corey Magette, Caron Butler, Stephen Jackson, Al Thornton, Ron Artest and Yi all get their shots blocked 16% of the time.
Bottom line, Marvin certainly needs to finish stronger around the hoop but there are a LOT of guys around who are bigger than he is or who play the same position he does who finish no better than he does and many finish WORSE.
February 1st, 2010
3:34 pm
Traceman, but Rudy Gay is the second coming of Julius Erving… surely he doesn't do anything wrong. And Marvin is a bigger bust than Pamela Anderson. Your data must be off.
February 1st, 2010
4:07 pm
Here is the trade that we need Marvin Williams and ZAZA for Sam Dalembert, he gives us the front court needed for the playoffs. move Josh to small Horford to power and ole sammie at center. I like our chances with 5 minutes left in a tight game with Jamal and Joe in the back court. May not know this but this will just be a fun 50 win season if we dont add toughness in the middle for the playoffs. Take it or leave it.
February 1st, 2010
4:09 pm
That's because Rudy Gay (and Gerald Wallace) takes it strong to the rim….:)
February 1st, 2010
4:14 pm
Melvin, so when I hear all those complaints about Marvin falling down, he is doing so on jump shots? And he's having his jump shot blocked all the time? I need to stop using this abacus, because something isn't adding up right.
February 1st, 2010
4:19 pm
While your stats try to prove your point, they can also be discredited. How about adding close blocks and blocked dunks together, then see what you get. Salmons, Fernandez, Webster are not 6′9 with a 7 foot wingspan. Gay and Wallace have many more shot attempts than Marvin, and they attack the paint much more. Even with those two add close and dunks together, and Marvin is higher. If you actually think that Rudy Gay and Gerald Wallace go to the hole as weak as Marvin does then you basketball knowledge should be questioned. Had to help my man IMUS out.
February 1st, 2010
4:26 pm
It's kind of hard to get your shot block when u trip/stumble/fall and lost the ball.
February 1st, 2010
4:26 pm
The problem isn't really that Marvin has his shots blocked too often by defenders — it's that he has them blocked by the underside of the rim. When he's in the open court, he can drive the lane and make 99% of his layups. The problem comes when we're in the half court and he has to do something athletic in order to get around the defense. More often than not he's either a) dropping the ball and kicking it away, b) getting it stripped, or c) throwing a wild shot either over (or into) the rim, off the glass or into the waiting arms of the opposing center.
February 1st, 2010
4:30 pm
If the salaries matched, which I don't think they do, would you guys be in favor of Zaza, a 2nd round pick, and Mo for a Camby deal? I mean Camby would help provide a better defensive presence off the bench at the 5, and he is still averaging 12 rpg. Also Camby's contract situation would be favorable when looking towards extending Horford (who's All Star salary just took him to an even heftier raise than anticipated). I know Camby's weight couldn't match up with Howard's. But Camby's rebounding and shot blocking ability, may would be good to have during the playoffs. In a half court game for defensive stops, imagine how effective a line up of JC, JJ, Smoove, Horford, Camby could be for 5 minute stretches. In that line up you would have your 4 best scores on the court, your three best rebounders on the court, and your four best defenders on the court. Also, I may would even be willing to do Marvin and Zaza for Camby and Butler.
February 1st, 2010
4:31 pm
Melvin, true. Marvin's .9 TOs per game must be among the league leaders… all of those turnovers after he falls down and fumbles the ball into the hands of the opposing team. He does that at least .9 times per game… that's a lot. I'm sure those elite SFs probably average less than .5 TOs per game, huh?
February 1st, 2010
4:32 pm
Keep in mind that most of Marvin shots are uncontested jumpshots.
Looking at Traceman list, Marvin probably shot more uncontested shots than guy that receive comparable mins…. I'm not a Marvin basher but lets keep it real, not too many others SF in the league that I wouldn't choose over Marvin…
February 1st, 2010
4:37 pm
How much did they sign him for??
February 1st, 2010
4:38 pm
All of the guys you listed are lower than Marvin when you add close blocks and blocked dunks together, which would validate IMUS' point. The only person higher is Tyson Chandler, who might have played a couple of games this year. Good try.
February 1st, 2010
4:40 pm
Melvin, I understand that Marvin doesn't compete against other SFs… but I look at it in terms of the fit with this team. IMO, if Marvin hit closer to 48% of his shots, I'd have no complaints… duck walk and all. This team doesn't need someone who won't be satisfied with 8-10 shots from the SF position… we need that guy who takes pride in being really good at all of the "other things" that help the team win 50+ games.
February 1st, 2010
4:44 pm
Should be giving Jeff Teague the time that Mario West has been getting. At this rate, Teague will probably be of no use in any meaningful situation this season . . .
February 1st, 2010
4:49 pm
AJ, and bigdave,
If Joe has a 3 or more inch height advantage, then he doesn't need to have much lift to "rise up". Shouldn't he take advantage of that?
February 1st, 2010
5:19 pm
Sautee, it feels like we're talking in absolutes and clearly, that is not the case. We know that Joe does in fact take jumpers over opponents, tries to take them off the dribble and sometimes backs them down. I think that a great offensive player has a lot of tricks in his bag to sue depending on the opponent and situation. But overall, I view Joe as more of a Mitch Richmond type than a Ray Allen or Reggie Miller. Someone who can nail jumpers but also has the body to punish guys down low. Joe may have a height advantage over some but he has a strength advantage over virtually every SG in the league. I'm not real sure how to answer the question any other way, Joe nailed a 3 against the Celtics Friday night with a defender in his grill and he also took and made contested shots in the lane. Likewise, Paul Pierce does the exact same because his greatest advantage is his strength. He has a wide-range of tricks from long distance bombs to punishing drives in the lane and fade away jumpers… just like Joe. Vince Carter could probably get a jumper off against any SG because of his jumping ability but his greatest skill is driving the ball… he can use both his quickness AND leaping talents. Likewise, Joe can use his strength and shooting touch when he shoots from the lane, not to mention find teammates who may be open under the rim.
February 1st, 2010
5:21 pm
We need another defensive minded big yet we sign a undersized sg who cant shoot, dribble, and plays overrated defense. Whatever. I guess one of our bigs will most likely wear a suit for the rest of the season so Mario can come in and run around and do pretty much nothing.

Contrary to popular belief, global warming did not end because of the Polar Vortex. If all you did was watch mainstream cable news, you'd think the entire world was covered with snow and freezing.

Kingsland School Board hears audit report, news about tour of Project Lead the Way labs
By Gretchen Mensink Lovejoy
Wednesday, October 24, 2012 5:07 AM
Kingsland's school board reviews the district's 2011-2012 audit report during its Oct. 15 meeting.
Kingsland's school board heard the 2011-2012 audit report during its Oct. 15 meeting as the auditor from Clifton Larson Allen updated members on the district's finances.
The district is in relatively good financial shape, according to a review of its books, and the board passed a motion approving the audit report, taking into account a caution from the auditor that nearly 78 percent of its revenue is from the state.
Kingsland High School Principal James Hecimovich was absent, but Kingsland Superintendent John McDonald presented the high school principal's report, noting that the Kasson-Mantorville district plans to spend a day touring Kingsland's Project Lead the Way labs and enter into a resource-sharing program, as both districts are working toward biomedical curriculum certification. College in the Schools (CIS) now offers 64 college credits, and more teachers are working toward their certification in college course instruction.
Kingsland Elementary School Principal Chris Priebe spoke on the distribution of iPads to elementary students, observing that "it's a little bit uncomfortable, but I think everyone's enjoying it."
The discomfort he cited is related to the responsibility of handling the tablets, learning how to use them and using them to learn, but overall, he stated that the process is "trailblazing" and an opportunity to benefit all students.
"We've had guests from the Kiwanis in our classroom as they come to read to our students for 'Read Around the World,' and it's also Fire Prevention Week, so the kids have gotten to learn about firefighters and fire trucks."
He concluded with an invitation to veterans for the "Visit With a Veteran" breakfast planned for Nov. 12 at 8 a.m. in the Kingsland Café.
McDonald elaborated on the Kasson-Mantorville Project Lead the Way site visit, adding that Kingsland will receive $25,000, the second part of the grant that makes participation in Project Lead the Way possible. Professional development continues within the district and also with the regional professional development consortium.
The superintendent then commended the staff for making due the day that board member Al Williams, who is also Wykoff's maintenance foreman, called to say that a water main had broken near the middle school, forcing relocation of those students to the high and elementary school building.
"People worked together to make things happen with very few bumps or major obstacles," he said, moving on to discuss the hiring of a new community education coordinator, as Jennifer Dessner had resigned from the position and the district was interviewing candidates.
McDonald thanked bp for its donation of $1,230 toward the girls' basketball program, Bill and Arlene Johnson for their donation of $60 to be added to the elementary school's popcorn fund, and Lori Bicknese for a contribution of $1,000 to be used for scholarships over the course of the next four years.
Personnel matters included approving business manager Kathy Beevers' leave, effective Jan. 2, 2013. Beevers is engaged and requested a leave of absence in order to prepare her family for its upcoming transition. The board also granted Emily Biske's maternity leave, hired Kelly Simon as a preschool teacher to replace Kelly Opseth who now teaches kindergarten and Letron Alexander as the district's school psychologist for the immediate school year. The board approved Michelle Breitsprecher's contract as the district's special education director. Additionally, as Beevers is not returning to Kingsland, the board will be considering how the district office's staff is structured and deciding what should be done following her departure.
Lastly, the board passed a vote to have TSP Architecture and Engineering examine the district's facilities and suggest a use redesign plan for the most efficient use of space, particularly the media center, as McDonald observed, "Access to technology is changing the role of the media center as computers become more of our textbooks. As technology changes, our instructional spaces can change, too. This visit from TSP doesn't bind us to anything - it's just a look at the present facilities and how they're used."
The next regular Kingsland school board meeting is set for Monday, Nov. 19, at 6:30 p.m. in the Kingsland High School conference room. The public is welcome to attend. Another meeting will be held Nov. 9 to canvas the school board election.

ActionCamper© & ActionTruck©
Jeep® ActionCamper© JKU expedition ready slide-in camper
Jeep® ActionCamper© JKU expedition ready slide-in camper
The Jeep® ActionCamper© has been developed for overlanding and expeditions with two passengers. The interior is incredibly spacious and fitted with all of the amenities to have a comfortable and unforgettable expedition experience to remote areas. The pop-up roof offers in the kitchen area a clearance of 203cm (6'8"). All windows come with bug screens and blinds. The roof has a huge tinted panorama window with sliding insulation blinds and glass covered boxes for two large 120W solar panels. The camper can be taken off the Jeep® quickly and by taking off the hard-top and "Sport" bars it may be combined with the Jeep® ActionTruck©.
product code:
3D Pictures
3D Rollbar
The following description refers to the 3D pictures. The interior and roof are different from the black prototype!
The Jeep® ActionCamper© is made of fiberglass. The interior is glued to the body as a structural reinforcement to achieve an innovative lightweight design. Because the original hardtop, tailgate, rear seats, seatbelts, and the rear roll cage are removed, the vehicle weight is increased by only 200 KG (440 LB). All components are designed in 3D CAD to make even the smallest areas useful. There are even hidden compartments next to the roll-bar. All taillights are Jokon 730 LED fail proof, power saving lights. The upper tailgate has double remote locks; once unlocked they open the door just enough to grab the edge to open it; burglars find nothing to crack; the lower tailgate unlocks via a center strap; a custom made aluminum ladder is part of the delivery; a grab handle will help to get in and out of the camper safely.
The included fiberglass half-door inserts for the Jeep Unlimited are very lightweight, use automotive seals and bolt on easily (white gel coat, ready to paint); they are fitted with lockable doors to access the large storage spaces behind the seats and the half-doors; they are held open in a horizontal position to serve as trays.
A larger version of the same type of lockable doors provide access to the kitchen cabinets from the outside, perform maintenance on the stove and sink, or allow other installations from outside of the camper; they are held open in a horizontal position to serve as trays; all four doors are keyed alike (camper and half-doors).
The complete camper can be taken off the vehicle in a short time, using a garage harness, hoist, or optional stands *01; the telescopic drop down stands extend from the hidden compartments next to the roll-bar and the rear telescopic drop down stands extend from the inside of the rear seat compartments. An optional waterproof, lockable cover closes the pass-through *02 while the camper is off the Jeep.
Windows - Roof
The rear and side double-walled windows (Dometic S4) have roller bug screens and reflective thermo roller blinds; they offer three opening positions plus a lockable ventilation position; the pop-up roof is made of fiberglass; the manual operated lift mechanism can be operated by one person and strongly tightens the canvas to eliminate any wind noise; it has a huge tinted panorama window with sliding insulation blinds and glass covered boxes for two large 120W solar panels; these boxes have detachable solar mounting plates; the plates are mounted from the inside to allow an easy installation of the optional solar system *03; the system comes with all necessary components and installation hardware.
All four openings have three layers consisting of: canvas, windows and bug screens; the canvas parts are with Velcro mounted and come off completely; the windows have sealed zippers so no water can enter the camper when the roof is closed during a rainfall; in- and outside straps with push-buttons hold the rolled up windows and bug-screens in place. We'll offer an optional Velcro mounted thermo insulation *04 for the canvas area.
To help the roof closing process the canvas is attached to the lift mechanism with elastic straps; two detachable bungee cords across the center of the canvas pull it inward too; the tailgate got to be open to let the air blow out and the tent windows got to be zipped in case of rain!
Kitchen - Sleeping area
The queen-size bed measures 200x160cm (79"x63") and can be fitted with conventional bed sheets; both mattresses and the large pillows come with detachable Alcantara covers (washable, cleanable, anti-mildew, imitation suede); to sleep, simply pull the rear mattress back; the integrated reinforcement panel (glued to the mattress) spans across the countertops; the rest of the countertops serve as bedside tables; on both sides are gooseneck lights plugged into 12V sockets (Osram CoPilot 12V with 20cm / 7.9" goosenecks); the stove and sink may be used while the bed is in use.
In the front are two large cabinets, right and left are two smaller cabinets; all with big fold-down doors that may be opened while both mattresses are stacked.
On the left countertop is a 2-burner stove with integrated knobs and starter button (Dometic); the propane tank is stored under the countertop and can be reached from outside. On the right countertop is the sink (Dometic), with a faucet that may be pulled out to extend as a shower or a toilet/bidet combination; a valve with electric switch turns on the on-demand pump; the second shower head can be pulled out the right access door; both appliances come with tinted, fold down glasslids.
The water heater is mounted in the right floor area; the white water tank is between the camper and the truck bed; with the tank relocation kit *05 it may be attached to the truck bed and connected with a quick connector); the grey water tank is mounted under the sink and can be reached from outside; a regular bucket hanging under the camper while taking a shower can be stored in the seat compartments.
Stored in the right cabinet is the chemical toilet (Thetford PP 365) with 15 liters (4 gallons) fresh water and 21 liters (5.5 gallons) black water capacity; it may be used in the kitchen alley; the pull-out faucet can be used for rinsing; both cabinets come with large doors and removable shelves to achieve different storage solutions; the hidden storage compartments may be reached through the external access doors.
On the kitchen floor is the removable tire cover; the space allows to mount a 35"x12.5" tire; the tire can easily be moved out through the rear; after removal of the tire a service lid on the right can be removed to get access to the refrigerator compressor, the water pump/heater and other equipment; if a smaller tire should be stored and a lower step between dining and kitchen area is desired, the tire cover may be trimmed and the mounting hardware re-located; this also lowers the countertop height. Within the rim and both sides of the tire is a lot of room for heavy tools and equipment; to carry a tire without rim would allow for more tools and spare parts!
The 40 liter (42 quart) top-loading refrigerator (WAECO Coolmatic CB-40) is located below the front pass-through and comes with a removable, vegetable basket. The lid opens to the right side and can be opened from the front seat by the passenger while driving. The external compressor may be taken out together with the refrigerator within minutes for servicing. The left smaller lid gives access to a spacious compartment.
Dining area
Under the fold up dining seats are huge storage compartments. The optional rear telescopic stands *01 drop down from the inside (see the chapter "Body"); the nicely rounded backrests and the little extra pillows are reusable for other purposes; they come with detachable Alcantara covers (washable, cleanable, anti-mildew, imitation suede); the table may be rotated to both sides to grant walk-through access; an optional table floor plate *06 will let you use the table outdoors; an optional table mounting bracket *07 will let you mount the table to the camper body; the armrests have heavy-duty mounts so they can be used to step up to the bed; on both sides are gooseneck lights (see the chapter "Kitchen - Sleeping area").
Shower area
The dining area can fitted with a shower option *08; the shower curtain is hung to a hook on the roof; the pull-out faucet can be held by bracket above the tailgate; the floor carpet and the drain plug are removed; a regular bucket hanging under the camper serves as grey water tank while taking a shower; it can be stored in the seat compartments; the shower curtain can also be hung to the tailgate strut, to take a shower outdoors; in this case the second shower head can be pulled out the right access door.
Interior - Insulation
All areas bordering the outside surface are covered with a special automotive insulating material with Alcantara surface (washable, cleanable, anti-mildew, imitation suede).
All parts are strictly bolt-on; cutting off of the roll cage, installing the roll cage adapters, the electric harness and the propane tank may be a challenge to the DIY buyer; we advise you to let one of our partners or a Jeep dealership do the work; our instructions will guide through the hole process, but we assume professional knowledge; specially if your Jeep is new, you should keep in mind that all taken off parts have a great value if they are disassembled right! If you want to sell your Jeep all stock at a later time you can opt for the mounting hardware to reinstall the cut-off roll cage *09; these adapters can't be seen after the roll bar padding is installed.
*01 telescopic drop down stands

2008 Trooper Island Campers From Madisonville & Mayfield Posts
Date of News Release: 06/10/2008
(Hickory, KY) - During the week of June 2nd through June 6th, a total of fifty-eight (58) boys and girls from the Madisonville and Mayfield Post area spent a week at the Kentucky State Police Trooper Island Camp. Before leaving for the island, the campers were treated to a cookout at the Madisonville Post courtesy of Richard Gordon of Madisonville, KY.
During the week on the island, campers participated in many activities such as swimming, canoeing, archery, fishing and other outdoor activities. Trooper Island is located on Dale Hollow Lake and was established in 1965. The free summer camp is for underprivileged boys and girls ages 10 to 12 that may not have a chance to attend a summer camp. Each year approximately 700 campers attend the camp from across the state.
Trooper Island is a non-profit organization, which operates on private and business donations. If you would like to make a donation to Trooper Island, you may contact your local Kentucky State Police Post. Contributions are tax-deductible. Currently the Kentucky State Police are raffling a 2008 Ford Mustang GT Convertible (license # ORG0000633) with proceeds going to Trooper Island. Tickets may be purchased from any Kentucky State Police Post.

Comments about Baudville Art Glass Colorful Swirls Trophy:
Award for mentorship; it's about 2.5 times the size of an egg, so it's not large and garish, but serves as a gentle thank you for being good at what you do, and will sit proudly on desk or bookshelf. Two pieces - the solid swirled glass "egg" and the engraved base.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
