Expecting the unexpected in your business
Jan. 15, 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 was on its way to Charlotte, North Carolina, when, two minutes after takeoff, a flock of Canadian geese flew into the aircraft causing both engines to fail. The passengers braced for impact. As the plane fell from the sky, the freezing waters of the Hudson River came into view and Flight 1549 hit the water at 150 mph. Dave Stockton, a businessman on the plane, said later in a television interview, "When you think you're going to die, you start thinking about your life… your family, little league baseball, things like in a movie." All 156 passengers survived the crash in the 36° water and their lives were changed forever.
This was a totally unexpected occurrence in everyone's life that morning. But what was a sure disaster became a much different story than anyone could have imagined.
Captain Sullenberger told Katie Couric in an interview on ABC that, while this emergency was unexpected, he was not unprepared.
"One way of looking at this might be that for 42 years I've been making small regular deposits in this bank of experience, education and training. And on January 15 the balance was sufficient so that I could make a very large withdrawal."
What was evident to everyone on Flight 1549 was that this captain had spent sufficient time preparing himself for the unexpected. The unexpected occurs every day in our business and personal lives. Those who are wise always expect the unexpected and prepare accordingly. How do you prepare for the unexpected?
Value Experience
Every business has a number of experiences, personal and corporate, positive and negative, in its history. It is impossible to run a business without facing and overcoming difficulty. The collective wisdom learned ought to be shared. Rather than forgetting and burying past mistakes, those who are wise will take the time to review and discuss past solutions and new ways to confront problems should they, or any problems similar, come again. This is not about assigning blame, but about discovering what went wrong and why. The corporate memory of senior employees to review problems in the past can help prevent them in the future. The experience of Capt. Sullenberger made the difference in the lives of everyone on board.
Rethink Training
In the archives of every business, whether it is entrepreneurial or corporation, big or small, events have occurred that need to be discussed and reviewed with an emphasis on discovering answers to past problems.

Author: "What was evident to everyone on Flight 1549 was that this captain had spent sufficient time preparing himself for the unexpected." Au contraire. This 'accident' occurred, why? Because its captain spent no time preparing himself for the unexpected. For starters, instead of watching where he was going, he was gawking the "beautiful view of the river" (transcript, seconds before impact). Moreover, instead of keeping his thoughts to himself, by vocalizing them – and getting a response (First Officer "Yah..."), he removed both gatekeepers from their job: Watching where they were going. I would point out that this was a serious violation of the law: below 10,000-feet, pilots are not permitted to engage in non-essential tasks or chitchat. Had Sully been expecting the unexpected, he would have kept up his watch. And, I point out, this was not only one of the most heavily-trafficed airways on planet Earth, being on the Atlantic Flyway, a major aviary corridor, he had double reasons to maintain that lookout. Author: "The unexpected occurs every day in our business and personal lives. Those who are wise always expect the unexpected and prepare accordingly." "How, then would have Sully "prepared for the unexpected"? He splashed in the Hudson. Did he have even one minute of seaplane training? No. Did he even have one minute of "all engines gone"-training. Nope. What Sully forgot, was that every pilot needs to have not just a constantly unfolding Plan B, but a Plan C and sometimes even, a Plan D. Here's a few other things sully 'forgot'. He forgot trying to re-start an already running engine (his first reaction) is a waste of time. He forgot that flying the airplane – which the FO was already doing - is the easy part:
(continued)... He forgot trying to re-start an already running engine (his first reaction) is a waste of time. He forgot that flying the airplane – which the FO was already doing - is the easy part: troubleshooting the problem is the hard part and why it is always left to the more-experienced pilot. He forgot to declare a "MayDay". He forgot his call sign (1549, not 1539 – so that ATC didn't even know where he was in the first ciritical seconds). He advised that he was going to do one thing ("return to la Guardia"), but kept heading AWAY from the airport. He tasked the FO with a procedure that was mandated to 20,000-feet and above (he was at 2,000-feet). He not only forgot to turn into the wind (which also took him over the 600-foot high Geo Washington Bridge), he wouldn't lower full flaps – he said 'more' wasn't necessary, thus increasing his ground speed to the point where he exceeded by some margin the safe margin set by the manufacture.r He forgot to advise the cabin that it was a WATER landing, hence why not one person existed that plane with a life vest. He even forgot to hit the ditch switch that closed off the outside ports to prevent (or limit) flooding. If you want, I can name ten other Sully "What I forgot to tell you's" Sully didn't even have the presence of mind to get on his cell and call 911 to explain what was going down. But he did use it to call his wife. This was a man who makes for a good model – not on what TO DO, but what NOT TO DO.
Yes, worry and paranoia is probably the best way to run a business. I mean, it has worked out so well for so many handwringing old women over the years, why not farm the same way? A lot less work that way 'cause it could storm or maybe a drought could come or locusts might descend or...or...or...so best to stay in the kitchen with your apron pulled up over your head and not bother working any ground if things might go less than perfect out there.
Documents released by the National Safety Board 'validated' Sullenberger 's decision to make an emergency landing, saying the move 'provided the highest probability that the accident would be survivable." The National Safety Board concluded a 15-month study of the landing. The findings note, among other things, that because the plane was equipped with 'forward slide/rafts' the 64 people who took to the rafts did not die of 'cold shock' from the frigid water. All 150 passengers survived. 'Good visibility, calm waters, and proximity of passenger ferries,' the findings note, also played a major role. Being prepared meant making the best decision of all alternatives. No one died or was seriously injured. Perfect decisions are impossible but measuring past decisions by results is one way to value being prepared. I appreciate the comments.

The accompanying table records the 10 largest construction project starts in Canada in February 2012. Also included is the latest trend graph on starts. This looks at 12-month moving totals of the two major non-residential building categories in Canada − total ICI starts and engineering work. ICI stands for industrial, commercial and institutional.
There are several reasons for highlighting upcoming large projects. Such jobs have often received a fair amount of media coverage. Therefore, people in the industry are on the lookout for when job-site work actually gets underway. And, as showcase projects, they highlight geographically where major construction projects are proceeding.
Also, total construction activity is comprised of many small and medium-sized projects and a limited number of large developments. But the largest projects, simply by their nature, can dramatically affect total dollar and square footage volumes. In other words, the timing and size of these projects have an exaggerated influence on market forecasts.

text: I'm new to this forum, and enjoying all of your posts. I attended Camp Wachusett, Holderness, NH, Little Squam Lake during 1967 - 1968. We hiked the Southern Presidentials to the Tuckerman Ravine shelters, then the next day over top of Mt. Washington and down though the Great Gulf. Since 1968, I have climbed Mt. Washington three other times, the last in the late 1970s. Back in the 1960s, Mt. Washington just had the Summit and Tip Top Houses, but now, the Observatory, plus a bunch of other stuff. I am really disappointed with all the development, because it takes away the incredible experience of Mt. Washington (I remember sitting on the Mt. Washington cone near the top, just taking in the feel of the unbalanced weather). Is the State of NH responsible for the development of Mt. Washington State Park? Also, I have read that the trails are much more crowded, now. It's all a shame.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the MTX Vehicle-specific Unloaded Enclosure Dual 10" by Ken Nail MTX vehicle-specific unloaded enclosures preserve all the legroom in pickup trucks and all the cargo space in SUVs. Each enclosure is an acoustically-designed, non-resonant, airtight enclosure, with the correct internal volume to yield optimum bass response from a compatible subwoofer. So what makes these enclosures different than a standard sub box? MTX designs each enclosure for optimum performance in your specific vehicle's acoustic space. Using state-of-the-art rotational molding techniques, and exotic high-density polyethylene ,MTX creates a sculpted masterpiece of a sub box, beautifully finished to blend with your interior. And they sound as good as they look, delivering bass that's tight, accurate, hard-hitting, and way down low. This enclosure comes without speakers you can install a pair of 10" Type 1 subwoofers. For best results, MTX strongly recommends using a speaker designed for an enclosure with a volume of 1 cubic foot. The enclosure mounts behind the rear seat of the 1997-up Jeep Wrangler.

With a jeep wrangler you are left with very little room to put any kind of subwoofer enclosure. Found this box while browsing crutchfield and took the plunge. Glad i did.

It was a hot summer day. The Miller boys didn't have a whole lot to do. One of those days that we were kinda looking for something to get in to. Gary came up with the idea of a berry-picking trip to the top of the mountain. Huckleberries were his favorite. After a little bit of pondering the idea, Ronnie and I decided that it was better than sitting at the house doing nothing so we joined him.

The year was 1963, Dad and Mom had just bought their first new car, a Chevrolet Biscayne. They were so proud of their shiny new car and we all met him in the driveway as he and Mom brought her to a stop. It was truly a sight for sore eyes. I still don't know how we afforded it but I felt somehow they both deserved it.No more having to worry about whether or not the old one we had would make it to work and back. Dad walked us all around, pointing out all the features. It had an automatic transmission,(when all of our vehicles before had been standard shifts with a clutch), power brakes and power steering. It had 4-doors that swung open wide with a huge backseat. And, it even had and air conditioner. My first thought was, I couldn't wait for a ride to try out that invention just to see how it worked. I thought only rich people could afford an automatic and an air conditioner. But I guess I was wrong.

Sometimes, even the best made plans don't always go as they should. This is about one of those times.
My parents were married in February 1, 1947 at Sibert, Kentucky. Momma was just 15 years old. Marrying at that age wasn't as uncommon as you would think back then. "If a girl wasn't married by the age of 18 she was almost considered an old maid," Momma use to say.
Wednesday, 10 April 2013 12:36
I remember the day Momma brought my little sister Darlene home from the hospital. We had stayed all night at my Mam-Maw and Pap-Paw Miller's for the night of the delivery. I was so excited to have a new baby sister. And after five boys in a row, I think Dad was excited even more.

Not long after graduation I left Clay County to find work in one of the big cities up north. I asked my sister Jackie if it was okay to stay with her and Alfred Lee, her husband, until I could find work and afford a place of my own. Of course, both said yes.
They lived in Indianapolis on North Hamilton Street and luckily I got a job just a few miles away working at Standard Brands on Roosevelt Street. They made butter and margarine there. I was hired in making $3.75 an hour, which doesn't seem like a lot of money now but back then I was making the big bucks.
Indianapolis was much different for a young man who came from a hollow on Horse Creek. I had been used to neighbors who spoke to each other every day and was a little concerned with how the people in the city more or less stayed to themselves.
I had also been used to hunting and fishing every chance I got when I wasn't working. But there, I never even knew a place to wet a line.
It was also strange that even though my sister lived the middle of a huge city that there was plenty of game around. You had to be careful in the yard not to step on a squirrel. They were everywhere. I thought that a squirrel wasn't safe anywhere near a mountain family. They would have them in the frying pan quicker your could blink an eye.
At night the 'coons and 'possums would get into any garbage can that was left uncovered. I thought that my Pap Paw Burkhart would have a hey-day with all those 'coons if he knew they were there so plentiful in the city. He would have 'em skinned out and on a drying board or tacked up on the side of his shed. He used to hunt 'em in the winter when their fur thickened up for winter. In the spring he would sell their pelt for money to get by on.
It was late in the fall of that year when Al, me and another friend got the itch to go pheasant hunting. I had never even seen a live pheasant much less hunt one so I was really excited to get the chance to go hunt them.
We left one cold snowy morning for about a three-hour trip to northern Indiana. We were going to do like we had done most of our life here in the country, find a good looking place to hunt and get out and try to blast away a few of 'em. Our first stop was somewhere just southeast of Gary, Indiana in farm country.
The reason we stopped there was we saw about twenty birds scratching around in the edge of a picked cornfield. When we pulled off the side of the narrow gravel road the pheasants didn't fly away, they just took off running keeping just out of shooting distance.
Most of the people that I had watch on TV hunt pheasants had bird dogs to point out the game while the shooter got in range and ready. Well on that hunt, we took time about dogging the birds ourselves.
We noticed that most of the pheasants ran close to the thicker fencerows or in places where they could hide partially in the fallen picked corn stalks. Being old country boys like we were, we would mark the place the birds stopped and hid and then one of us would circle the field in front of them and slowly walk towards them until they flushed.
Our plan began to work like a charm. It wasn't long before the feathers were flying and birds were hitting the ground.
Before dinner we had seven roosters and one hen in our game sacks. Now I know what some of you will say, "You're not supposed to shoot hens." Well, we knew that. But when one shot of our shotgun killed a rooster and a hen at the same time, we weren't about to leave that hen a lying. I was taught to never waste game.
Along about dinner we stopped hunting and drove to a little country store for something to eat. We walked in and each of us ordered a sandwich from the lady behind the counter. While she was putting the order together we began to share small talk.
"Are you guys hunting," the lady asked.
"Yep," I answered quickly.
"What are you hunting," she asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"Pheasants," I told her.
"You haven't killed any, have you," she asked as she turned around stopping her task at hand.
"Yep, we've had a pretty good day. We already got seven roosters," I answered bragging about our successful morning hunt.
The lady then looked left and then right and leaned over the top of the cold cut case. She looked me straight in the eye and with her fore finger in front of her lips she said, "Shhhhhhh! Don't talk too loud. Pheasant season has been out here for over two weeks."
I felt like crawling in a hole. All morning long we had been out in the fields blasting away at the birds and hunting season wasn't even in.
Needless to say the three of us took our sandwiches to go after that remark and thanked the lady for the information.
As we walked towards the door she laughed and said, "Be sure to come back next year except be sure to come about a month earlier."
We laughed and told her we would.
All the way to the interstate we were constantly looking in the rear-view mirror or expecting to see flashing lights and hear a siren coming up from behind. Once back on I-65 south we laughed and joked about our hunting trip.
That was the one and only time I ever went pheasant hunting. I worked in the city as long as I could stand it and then returned again to the mountains I grew up to love.
I still tell my pheasant story and I laugh every time I think about it. Someday I hope to maybe take another trip up north to hunt those majestic birds. But before I do, you can bet that I'll be sure to check the hunting guide to make sure the season is in.

The font i use in it is Elemental End, and its a free font.
right here.
(Note: This is not my UI)
And hey, since you like the font, Elemental Ends
So here's what I'm rolling with at the moment:
Considering hiding my player frame and cooldown bar active on mouseover when out of combat, and fully visible once in combat.
Dbm is still pretty much unconfigured. Will sort that in the near future.
Also, for some reason; when I take a screenshot in combat, some of the borders on texts and such go a little blurry, after I upload them to Imgur. Just pointing that out so people don't think I'm running with nasty blurry borders
Just an idea of where everything is on my screen (when it appears, of course)
Have not logged on to a class where a pet is used yet (or summoned my Water Elemental :P) so the pet bar is unconfigured also.
I've always been very stubborn about swapping to ElvUI, but now I see that it is very awesome :P
Maybe now people won't ask me to upload my UI, as they can simply make it themselves! Hehe! ^_^

It can take me months to get a UI how I want it, sometimes I can work on one for 3 months and end up scrapping it. Don't expect to get a UI that's perfect in just 3 hours ^^
Take a look at the gallery in my sig; that's just a very small amount of UIs I've started and/or worked on that I managed to find lying around. If I had my old HDDs there'd be hundreds of screenshots.

Edit: got no idea how to make my unitframes look like pixil's.
Edit2: waahh this is getting frustrating, cant detach manabar from my player frame, *bashes head on desk*
Edit3: @pixil, are you using separate unitframes? i cant seem to make mine look like yours via ingame options.
Edit4: Frustrated, deleted elv. gonna have a bash at some stand-alone addons and see what i can come up with

There is no way to detatch the power bar from the healthbar using ElvUI (which annoyed me at first too). At the moment I'm rolling with health and power bars together.
My unitframes are the default ElvUI ones, configured quite easily to look the way I have them.
Like Carebear said up there^ UI configuration can takes AGES. On this ElvUI edit, I spent more time than I'd like to admit teaching myself how to change things I wanted to change etc.
Carebear mentioned that he can spend months on a UI and then star tall over again (which can be seen in his UI gallery) which is similar to me also. I've been using the UI that I had before this ElvUI one for about a year now, but before that I would change it almost every week, just to get it right!
Just stick at it and you'll get there!
Regarding the unitframes issue: the actual unitframes are 214pixels wide, and 18high. The power bar is 3pixels high. The textures I'm using are named ElvUI Norm and I'm not actually sure where I got the font from... but it is a edit from the "Skurri" font. You can find the font in many other AddOns though, which I mentioned up there^. Also remember that I'm using the Pixel Perfect skin. (You can change the entire skin of the UI in the installation process when you first set up the UI.
(This should probably be in the "Sticky: Ask it! UI/Mods Edition" thread, but I am putting it here in reply to a post in this thread)
Hope this all helps!
Could you pm me some of your settings so i can copy them over, really want to get my ui setup before sunday night :P
Edit: Are you using QuseMap?
Edit2: If you have them together, how can i make it look like you have it in the raid screenshot, i tried all the settings i could find and i could only offset it .
Edit3: the 4 icons on the left, pyro lb etc..is that power/weak auras?
Edit4: my resolution is only 1440x900, so its gonna be a bit wonky compared to yours. Got the Unitframes looking something similar to yours now, thanks a bunch for the height and width +texture stuff
Edit5: what size are the buttons above your player frame? 20seems a bit big for me but any smaller and i can barely see em

About your DBM woes... I know I had a similar issue with BigWigs. I suggest taking a look at Quse's Boss Styles if you haven't already. I only really started using this because whenever I updated BigWigs my styling would reset, this is an independent addon from the boss mod so it keeps the styling.

Yes I am using Qusemap. To be able to use Qusemap with ElvUI you need to go to the General tab, and untick Minimap. (Like this - http://screencast.com/t/VLj66HYRPHbj)
Then you need to do this: http://screencast.com/t/2lzsHCKre1K

And thanks Frantik! I will give Quse Boss Styles a go now, see what I can do with it

1. Go into the Qusemap AddOn folder.
2. Open the "media" folder.
3. In there, there will be a font named "font2". Copy this.
4. Go back to your WoW folder where "Interface" and "WTF" and "Cache" and all those other files are.
5. Create a folder named "Fonts". If you already have a Fonts folder, skip to part 6.
6. Go into your Fonts folder and paste "font2" in there. (Rename it if you want to. I think "Supercoolawesomefantasticfont" is a suitable name )
7. Log into WoW and see if you are able to choose this font in your ElvUI config.
EDIT: Yes I am using this font as a default font for my UI

I have a question about this mode, and not sure if anyone knows the answer? I have mode set to receive email notifications instantly if I create a thread or reply to one. One thing I've noticed though, and I may be wrong about this, is that I will only get one email notification for a reply a person leaves after I reply. Then no notifications for replies as they are posted.
If I start a thread, or reply to one thus being subscribed, it would be nice to receive notifications for every reply after that. Does anyone else use this? Does the capability exist to set this up if it isn't set up already? Thanks!

Arrow Spine Consistency, Tuning for Tighter Groups.
There are three debates amongst archers on the spine stiffness area on an arrow.
The Question:
1) Is the stiffest part of the arrows static spine under the manufacturer label?
2) Do all arrow manufacturers place the cock vane over the stiffest (spine) part of the arrow?
3) Do rotating the nocks determine the stiffest part of the arrows spine, when the arrow is in dynamic motion?
Answer, No, No and Yes in that order!
The Test
This test will show you various arrows I will use and where the nock location will indicate on the arrow surface area which gives the best arrow groups out to 40 meters. This test will also indicate the most consistent spine stiffness from arrow to arrow manufacturer in which to affix your cock vane.
Don't Nock it, until you tried it!
All arrows will be using an adhesive Bohning Nock Position Indicator with gradient adjustments from 1 to 4 to show me the exact location of the nock in relation to the arrow in order to see where the consistency of the spine is finally located. By turning the nock a ¼ turn on each arrow should eventually see me getting a tight arrow group at 40 meters, thus concluding this is the best spine consistency from arrow to arrow!
Nocks from most manufacturers have a raised line on the shank which I will correspond with the Bohning Nock Marked Gradients located on the end of the arrow.
The Nocks raised line can then be lined up with the Nock Indicator Gradients and used to consistently to determine where to affix your cock vane on the end of the arrow later on with the help of marking the arrow shaft with a black sharpie.
The Arrows and Spine Range
I will shoot a set of four arrows with each set from different arrow manufacturers at 40 meters and adjust the nock a quarter turn at a time thereby rotating the arrow and shooting the arrow to see which nock location indicates the best group, thus indicate the most consistent spine from each arrow.
All arrows used in this test will be within the same spine (350-400) range for a 60 pound bow, though some arrows will be longer by a few inches and or heavier by up to 100 grains.
The test will use the most popular arrows such as the Easton Powerflight, Easton Fatboys, Gold Tip Hunters, PSEX-Weave, Bemans, Victory Arrows, as well as the Victory Nanos (Now calledVAPs).
All arrows will be tipped with Martin Archery 100 grain screw in field points.
Vanes and Feathers
The test will be based on the more popular used Vanes and Feathers such as Bohning Blazers, Bohning X Vanes, Duravane, AAE Vanes,TrueFlight and Gateway Feathers.
This way everyone's favorite vane or feather is included so compound and recurve bow, release and finger shooters can benefit.
Keep in mind this test is not to determine the best arrow, vane, feather or point. This test is to find the most consistent part of the spine which will give the best arrow grouping.
Since these arrows are all of varying manufacturers, design, length and vanes, I will be using my 40 meter pin sight and not all arrows will be hitting the gold. For me to adjust my sight for each arrow set of varying size and weight arrows to hit the gold I would have to spend two days doing this test.
Again, we are going for best group, for accuracy into the gold I leave that up to you fellow archers to adjust your pin sights to do that!
(It is assumed all arrow manufacturers (with the exception of PSE's X-Weave carbon arrows) are consistent in their manufacturing process in placing the stiffest or consistent part of the spine in the same location for every arrow to date).
The Issue of Nock Tuning
The problem with nock tuning is vane clearance when you rotate the nock in which the vane may contact any rest that is not a full dropaway, hence the popularity of dropaways.
For this test, I replaced my Spott Hogg Infinity Blade Rest to a Dropaway rest which offers total vane clearance and no vane contact. This is especially critical when rotating nocks at varying degrees when trying to determine the stiffest part of the spine while getting no contact vane clearance. Once I get consistently tight groups, I strip off the vanes and put new vanes to correspond where the spine on the arrow is consistent. I then takeoff my Dropaway rest and put my Spot Hogg Infinity Blade Rest back on.
This test will allow archers whether they use a trigger release or fingers to fletch their vanes to their arrows and tune for best performance. If all things being equal this test should show the location where to place your cock vane over the stiffest or most consistent part of the arrows spine, without having to resort to changing their arrow rest like I have done to gain total vane clearance.
Spine Testers
While you could use a spine tester and you can also take up badminton and wear lacy pink socks too!
I noted a few things that spine testers "Bless their cotton socks" do not or cannot determine, though no fault of their own, they measure static spine, not dynamic spine.
Spine can vary along the shaft, so I took a few carbon arrows into my lab and cut them into exact 1 inch increments and weighed each 1 inch section to determine if all equal lengths weighed the same. The answer, out of 30 sections of cut 1 inch carbons measured end to end with a digital micrometers 3 sections weighed the same out of 30 sections the rest of the sections weighed up to 3 grain more than the others. So you can see why field testing for dynamic spine is the better way to judge an aggregate stiffness of the entire arrow.
Spine testers I have used in the past do not determine best arrow grouping, only field testing will determine that. Some spine testers I've found have inaccuracies in which I will not go into, let's just say spine testers are good for wood arrows and leave it at that!!
You should know carbon arrow spine can have various spine differences in a dozen arrows of the same set, even Easton X-10s may have one or two arrows in a set of a dozen arrows that are not matched. So there is nothing like true field conditions to see how arrows group at 40 meters when dealing with these carbon spine consistency anomalies. After all isn't great groups what it's all about, followed by sighting adjustments for great accuracy?
Once I attained the best arrow group possible using the Bohning Nock Position Locator, I let another archer shoot all the "newly tuned arrows" to determine if he would also get all arrows to group good and tight.

Aloha everyone. I'm a proud owner of a 2008 Cheetah. I am waiting on arrows and I can't shoot it. The wait is really agonizing.
I was wondering if its normal to have the MPro Cam ride so close to the limbs on the Cheetah. It's not touching the limbs and I can slip a folded dollar bill in between the cam and the limb, but it is really close. I feel when shot, the cam could make contact with the limb.
Also, when I follow the Basic Set Up instructions in the manual I can't align the shooting string down the center of the grip because of the way the cam rides.
Is all of this normal on all Bengals and Cheetahs?

Last week's Remember When mystery photo, below left, shows Allen Wilson moving toward the basket during the 1967-68 basketball season at Tracy High School.
Wilson, considered the best shooting guard in school history, scored 581 points in the season to bring his three-year varsity total to 1,114 points, a school record.
Former Tracy High basketball coach Paul Demsher reported that Wilson now stands in fourth place among Bulldog scorers. Steve Gemelos leads with 1,206 points.
Wilson earned a scholarship to Baylor University in Texas, but a knee injury in his freshman year ended his basketball career.
In addition to Demsher, Tom Tillotson, Ray McCray and Henry Villanueva also identified Wilson in the photo.

I have shot by myself since I moved up to Alaska. The pressure, competition and will to shoot well in front of others has completely gone. So the ability to shoot as good around others, or thoughts of others, as well as I shoot alone with a clear mind does not compare. Through this I have learned a couple things. Be honest to myself. If I hit a target I wasn't aiming for, what good does it do to play it off like that was my original plan. Second, losing the competitive edge is not worth losing.
DeepRiverBowman, I tried doing the blank bail. That is so difficult in reality to do because I base all my adjustments off of where my arrow landed in reference to where I was aiming. To not think about where the arrow is going is a lot harder than what I thought when I read your suggestion.
Amazing how much of a mind game this sport is.

How Morris Residents Watch TV
If you thirst for cable TV knowledge, we can help. CableTV.com has cold-filtered cable data on tap and ready for consumption. Try this (it's on the house): almost everyone, or 97% of Americans, watches television as it is aired and roughly 33% of those TV viewers have at least four televisions in their homes. Upwards of 50% of people also stream video content online. Among those with cable TV, almost three-fourths bundle their service with high-speed Internet. Cable's ubiquitous national presence also helps explain how DVRs account for about 7% of America's total TV viewing.
All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.
Morris, GA Cable Internet
Cable providers have so much more to offer than TV. That is why so many Morris residents bundle cable services. Cable Internet is faster than most DSL services, providing downstream speeds 25%-100% faster than the national average. People who choose cable bundles also save money, roughly $42 every month they bundle TV and Internet. Both are very good explanations why cable Internet subscribers represent 32% of households, and how broadband penetration in Georgia grew to 69% by 2010. Enter your zip code to find out more about cable Internet, bundles and providers in Morris.

Mount Ulla woman charged with taking items from Marshall's
A Mount Ulla woman was charged Wednesday with felony larceny by an employee after police say she stole more than $200 worth of merchandise from the store where she worked.
A loss prevention officer at Marshall's on Faith Road told police that employee Lauren Kimberly Foster, 25, of N.C. 801, was seen on video taking the merchandise.
A Salisbury Police Department report said Foster went into a stock room and took socks, infant clothing, women's bathing suits, pet treats, soap and pants, then took with the items into another room and put them in her pocketbook. She then walked out of the store with the merchandise, a police department report said.
The merchandise was valued at $217, the report said.
Foster was released without bond into her mother's custody. She is expected in court Friday.

been messing with my Onza trying to get some 10 grain thunderheads to shoot the same as the field points...turns out 400 spined arrows at 28" put he broadhead to the right and if I moved the rest really far to the right(should be left), I got some good results...yet this can't possibly corrrect as its no way lined up with the string at this point.
next i swithed to a 29" 350 spine and reset the centershot....arrows ends up in the center, but this time is high with the broadhead....dropping the rest down pretty far seemed to get good results but once again there's no way that could be correct as the nocking point was 3/8" above level and the vanes looked as they could hit the self....however, did notice my arrow wasnt level with the berger holes, so I reset the rest and will start over.
question is.how far should you move the rest from centerline before you decide the arrow is not spined right?

The embarrassing error made by cartographers at a HarperCollins subsidiary recently put climate scientists on the attack against publishers over the extent to which Greenland's ice sheet has retreated. But after the scientific strike force had done its work and the publishers apologized, a point of agreement between the two emerged.
It is, both said, hard to show accurately the ebb and flow of glaciers and to map their retreat.
Yes, Collins Geo, the London-based publishers of The Times Comprehensive Atlas of the World, got it very, very wrong. The statement, in publicity material, that 15 percent of the land ice had disappeared was off by at least two orders of magnitude. Had it been accurate, a three- to five-foot rise in sea levels would have caused the Thames River to spill onto the streets of a residential area half a mile from the publisher's offices.
But it is exceptionally difficult to get it right. The photos above, taken a decade apart by NASA's Modis (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) satellite on relatively cloudless days at a time of maximum ice melt, show changes, but ones that would be impossible to capture at the scale of the atlas's map. (The atlas represented most of the area shown in these images as ice-free.)

Hi all amd new to the world of dslrs have only ever used a compact camera and never even looked at changing settings! I have been looking round online for the last few weeks and am looking at buying in the next few weeks, so far I have been told canon is the way to go with the canon 500d the best choice (as I need video) I have also been told not to consider sony or panasonic or basically anyone except canon or nikon which seems sound advice as I am hoping to expand my knowledge and in time expannd my kit. So buying into the big two brands makes sense! More options whn I upgrade and can still use any lense I buy now. Anyway having looked at nothing but canon I went to a shop yesterday to have a feel and the guy at jessops also told me about the nikon d5000 which is similar to the canon 500d but only 12mp and doesn't have 1080p HD video but then again on the canon full HD is only captured at 20fps! I will be using the video for mainly shooting out new dog who will also be a show dog and taking videos at dog shows and camping trips etc! I have read reviews on both cameras and both seem great cameras for a newbie but the nikon is about 150 cheaper which I could spend on a 70-300 lens, which would hopefully help taking the long shots at dog shows, has anyone got any advice about these two cameras and is the canon really worth the 150 extra when it will be in the hands of a beginner?
Many thanks Danny

Students juggle careers, schoolwork
Throughout the last decade, studies show a significant increase in the amount of college students who work.
The art of time management is one of the most difficult skills for college students to acquire. For ASU students, balancing multiple work hours and credit hours with their personal lives can be a struggle.
A study completed in 2007 by author Lauren Dundes revealed that 74 percent of undergraduates worked an average of 25.5 hours per week while going to school in comparison to a study commissioned by Upromise in 2001 that found that 49-57 percent of college students had jobs.
ASU is no exception to the increase. Many students take several hours and have multiple jobs.
The National Center for Education Statistics found that students who work one to 15 hours per week have significantly higher grade point averages than both students working 16 or more hours and students who did not work at all.
Dundes and Mark, in a study in 2006, found that 74 percent of student workers believed that employment forced them to become more efficient, Lonnie Williams, interim director of the Career Management Center, said. However, 64 percent reported that employment also increased their level of stress as reported in a study of BYU Employment Services.
Kayela Holland, a sophomore English major of El Dorado, works full-time at IHOP, is a full-time student and is a member of the Delta Zeta sorority.
I work 35 to 45 hours a week and am taking 17 credit hours, she said. Its pretty difficult. Most of the time my sleep schedule is very deprived. Sometimes my schoolwork suffers too. I just have to do it.
According to Holland, without her job, not only would she not be able to be in her sorority, but she would not be able to pay any of her bills.
My main expenses are my apartment, insurance on my apartment, electricity, water and cable bills, she said.
Williams highlighted many issues students encounter when balancing both school and work.
Some of the problems include students missing classes, being too tired to go to class, not resisting the opportunity to pick up more hours than they first agreed to work, and not devoting the proper time needed to their studies, Williams said. There is also an old saying: The more money you make, the more money you spend. This leads to the need to make even more money so you pick up more hours, which becomes a detriment to the academic process, Williams said.
Quinton Marks, a sophomore graphic communications major of Prescott, doesnt find balancing his two jobs with school too difficult.
Im a CA (Community Assistant) at the Grove and a sales associate at the GAP. Its really easy to me, he said. I stay pretty organized so its all routine. Im always planning ahead of time and making sure nothing clashes in my schedule. It can be stressful at times, but not usually.
Marks works 20 hours per week at the Grove and an additional 15 at Gap.
As far as my personal life goes, I work with a lot of my friends, and my roommates are really cool, so it all balances out somehow, Marks said. Its all about prioritizing and making sacrifices. I dont have to work two jobs, stay off campus or have a car. I choose to though.
ASU has implemented a work-study program for students who have to work, but also would like to stay on top of their classwork.
My advice for students seeking jobs is to try and find a position on campus. Supervisors on campus tend to be more understanding when it comes to your academic needs and the job may allow you time to study, Williams said.
He also said it will reduce the time and expense of working off campus. It will lock students into a flat number of hours per week, and they dont have to worry about it going past 20 hours per week.
Williams said most positions on campus are typically for office assistants where a student is assigned various types of work to perform within an office such as answering the telephone, running errands, or doing the same work as an administrative assistant on a smaller scale.
However, he also stressed that jobs on campus are not as plentiful as one might think. This semester, 232 students received work-study, and 211 out of that number are actually working, which is only about 2 percent of the student body.
Some departments report their need for part-time workers to the Career Management Center, while others advertise within their departments or just select students, Williams said.
Students can check with the Career Management Center to see what they have listed and also check with individual departments on their needs.
Williams said, Unless a student is on work-study, typically a department would have to pay a student from departmental funds. Most departments on this campus have not had increases in their supply budgets for many years, which would reduce their ability to hire students. We are severely limited with the number of students that can be awarded work-study funds.
Williams encouraged students to use the Career Management Centers services, which include assisting students in looking for positions, reviewing of resumes, mock interviews and providing career fairs for permanent, part-time work and graduate schools. This semester alone, the staff in the center has assisted 151 students in obtaining part-time work off-campus.
