FARMINGTON, W.Va. - The Oak Glen boys basketball team hung with North Marion for three quarters on Tuesday in a West Virginia Region One, Section One semifinal.
Unfortunately for the Bears, a 25-10 first quarter in favor of North Marion proved too much to overcome in an 80-61 loss.
Oak Glen finishes its season at 4-19. North Marion improves to 16-7 and will play Fairmont Senior on Friday.
"They came out and were hot from the start," Oak Glen coach Dave Smith said. "It wasn't that we weren't getting out on them, they just made their shots. It put us in a severe hole.
"We cut it down to seven in the third quarter and even made a run in the fourth quarter, but it just wasn't quite enough."
North Marion's Matt Cain gave the Bears problems all night. The 6-foot-2 senior guard came into the game averaging 10.7 per contest but exploded for 31 points, 14 in the first quarter.
The Bears saw two players score career highs in the losing effort. Matt McLaughlin finished with 18 points and five assists, while Brennan Smith netted 15 points and grabbed five rebounds.
Cody Howell finished with 16 points and seven rebounds for Oak Glen, while Tyler Click added seven points.
This season marked the first with Oak Glen for Smith since the 2003-04 campaign. Smith said he believes the future is bright for the Bears.
"We were kind of behind the eight-ball from the beginning with a late start," he said. "We didn't have the proper time to prepare. But, I love the group we have coming back. We've just got to refocus our efforts and work hard to make this program relevant again."
Oak Glen will graduate four seniors in McLaughlin, Howell, Taylor Kincaid and Trey Smith.
"Those four guys are a credit to Oak Glen High School," Smith said. "I wish we had more time with them. I've said from the start that I couldn't have had a better group. They put forth great effort. They play for each other. I just really enjoyed being around them."
North Marion 80, Oak Glen 61
Oak Glen 10 17 19 15 - 61
North Marion 25 16 21 18 - 80
OAK GLEN: McLaughlin 5-5-18, T. Smith 0-0-0, Click 3-0-6, Woodruff 1-0-2, Ford 0-0-0, Kincaid 1-0-2, Congo 1-0-2, Howell 6-4-16, B. Smith 5-0-15, McGraw 0-0-0. TOTALS: 22, 9-12: 61. 3-pointers: B. Smith 5, McLaughlin 3.

Pakistan's Judges Score One Against Army
Former Officers See Arrest of Ex-President Pervez Musharraf, a Retired General, as Blow to Military
ISLAMABAD—Former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf spent Friday night in police custody after turning himself in for the first arrest of an ex-army chief in a country dominated by its military.
Some former officers called the prosecution of the ex-strongman a challenge to the prestige of the army—long Pakistan's most powerful institution—while others saw it as a sign of strength for Pakistan's fragile democracy in the run-up to elections on May 11. Mr. Musharraf, then army chief, seized power in a coup in 1999 and later appointed himself president, running the country until 2008.
Mr. Musharraf returned to Pakistan last month after four years in self-imposed exile to run in the election, though he had been strongly advised by the military not to come back, especially considering the rising clout of the country's judiciary, according to retired Brig. Gen. Shaukat Qadir and other retired army officers.
"Musharraf has put himself into this bind. He always acts first and thinks later," Mr. Qadir said. "The problem for the army is that it's got no cards to play in this game. It's been hijacked by the judiciary."
Election officials and judges have already barred Mr. Musharraf from running in all four districts where he had planned to run for a seat in Parliament.
The Islamabad High Court ordered Mr. Musharraf's arrest on Thursday for what it said was the "illegal and immoral order" to fire Supreme Court Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry and other judges and put them under house arrest in 2007.
Mr. Musharraf's lawyer denied he put the judges under house arrest, saying the police deployed to their homes were there for their own protection.
The judge in the case extended the charges against Mr. Musharraf to include "an act of terrorism," saying his move against the courts in 2007 had "spread fear in the society, insecurity among the judicial officers, alarm in the lawyers community and terror throughout Pakistan."
Mr. Musharraf faces six other cases, in six other courts, stemming from his time in office. Other allegations include murder and a treason case now before the Supreme Court. Mr. Musharraf has described the court cases as baseless.
Mr. Musharraf was present at Thursday's hearing, but fled from the court and sped to his home on the outskirts of the capital, helped by armed security guards. On Friday, he turned himself in. Later, he called his prosecution politically motivated. "I will fight them in the trial court, where the truth will eventually prevail," said a post, signed by him, on his official Facebook FB -0.85 % page.
Television images on Friday showed Mr. Musharraf, dressed in traditional shalwar kameez—baggy trousers and long shirt—flanked by police and paramilitary soldiers at the district court.
The former president spent Friday night in custody at the Islamabad police headquarters—though an aide, Abid Khan, said he wasn't kept in a cell but in guest accommodations usually reserved for visiting police officers.
Mr. Musharraf's team had argued that the former president's security couldn't be guaranteed in a jail.
"He's a soldier, a commando, and he's always cheerful," said Mr. Khan. "But he was disappointed from the justice he is receiving, disappointed with the courts, disappointed with the system."
Talat Masood, a retired lieutenant general, said the trial of Mr. Musharraf would bring into focus the army's history of "usurping power" at a time when it needs public support its fight against Taliban extremists.
However, Mr. Masood added: "I think democracy is the winner in the long run. Because I don't think that anyone would dare to break the constitution in future."
Mr. Musharraf became an important U.S. ally after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks. He moved in 2007 to sideline an increasingly activist and independent judiciary and its hard-charging chief justice, Mr. Chaudhry. That judiciary was reinstated in 2009, after Mr. Musharraf was forced out of the presidency by political pressure and went into exile. Mr. Musharraf's aides accuse the judges of trying to take revenge for humiliation suffered in 2007.
On Friday, Pakistan's Senate passed a unanimous resolution demanding that Mr. Musharraf be tried for treason for imposing martial law in the country—a case that is already in court.
Senators said they were concerned that behind-the-scenes pressure had been exerted to prevent Mr. Musharraf being arrested on Thursday.
Zahid Khan, a senator from the Awami National Party, which was part of the outgoing coalition government, said "double standards" were being applied to favor the former military ruler. "We will keep our watch on this, so that some helicopter doesn't suddenly land and take him away," Mr. Khan said.
The Senate is the only chamber of the Pakistani parliament that is still sitting. The lower house of parliament has been dissolved ahead of the May 11 election.
For the army, there is one theoretical option that could save Mr. Musharraf from the courts, said Mr. Qadir, the retired brigadier general.
The army could re-induct Mr. Musharraf into service and put him on trial under a court-martial instead, an approach that was used last year for three retired generals accused of embezzlement after they left service. However, rescuing Mr. Musharraf is this way would be "extremely embarrassing" for the military, Mr. Qadir said.
Humayun Gauhar, a friend of Mr. Musharraf who helped him write his 2006 autobiography, said the ex-president had returned to Pakistan because he wanted to clear his name "of these stigmas" and had been confident that he would receive due process from the courts.
"If justice stops flowing through the courts, it will start flowing through the barrel of a gun," said Mr. Gauhar. "Whether that gun is in the hands of the military, or in the hands of terrorists."

Dickonomics: How 5 Everyday Businesses Trick You
The economy is in the proverbial pooper and many are trying to cut back, but unfortunately, there's a reason you came back with a new hi-def TV and 10-gallons of discount mayonnaise last time you went to buy bread. The retailers have gotten very good at what they do.
We've already detailed the advanced advertising techniques being used to turn us into a society of shambling Baconator-craving zombies, but the manipulation certainly doesn't end once they've got you into the building...
#5. The Bar
There few things more easy and profitable (and fun) than scamming drunks, so it comes as no surprise that bars have their own list of ploys. Let's look at a few of the ways you're getting cockslapped along with your cocktail.
Less Socializing, More Drinking
Every time you use your mouth for frivolous non-drinking related activities like talking, you're costing the bar money. So they try their hardest to make sure your interactions remain at the basic head nodding and pointing out hot girls level. Music is pumped up to ear splitting level, making conversation impossible and lights are kept dim, partly to disguise how dirty most bars are, but also because we feel uncomfortable talking to someone we can't see clearly.
Your "Friend" the Bartender
There are many ways to cut down on the amount of precious alcohol actually getting into your glass. Taller, thinner shot glasses appear larger but actually contain less volume and, in fact, simply tilting the glass toward the customer slightly while pouring creates an optical illusion making you think you're getting more than you are. Measuring cups may have washers in the bottom ensuring you don't get a full double, and narrow pourers are used on bottles ensuring a 3-second pour gives you less booze than you might expect.
Oh, and in perhaps the most diabolical trick, fruity girl drinks may have the rim of the glass coated or straw filled with alcohol with little to none in the drink itself. Come on bartenders, if you're not there to get girls sloppy on oversized pink beverages what exactly are you there for?
An even bigger dickhead than you thought.
Of course, as the night wears on the need for such intricate schemes melts away. That's when bartenders start charging whatever the hell they want on a person-by-person basis, using the "would I like to bone them?" scale. Also, never offer to pay for your group's drinks as most bartenders assume anyone generous (and dense) enough to do such a thing won't mind them adding a dozen or so extra drinks to the tab.
#4. The Grocery Store
How many times have you stood in your kitchen, packed with enough food to feed a starving African village for a day, and yet found you had nothing you actually wanted to eat? You're not alone; 60 to 70 percent of grocery purchases are unplanned, as supermarkets employ an endless array of tricks to ensure your fridge always has 10 different types of pickles in it, yet no milk.
Rats in a Maze
Supermarkets are carefully designed to be migraine-inducing labyrinths, with the essentials tucked away in the outer reaches of the store. Food's often shelved in seemingly random ways and stores reorganize their shelves every few months to keep you on your toes and send you scrambling again to find the Super Sugar Chocolate Breakfast Nuggets.
Supermarkets are also designed to keep movement as slow as possible, with displays stuck in the middle of aisles to create bottlenecks, strategically placed cart-slowing carpets and smaller floor tiles in expensive aisles (cart wheels click faster over them making you think you're traveling quicker and thus you subconsciously slow down). Oh, and we suspect something might be up with every shopping cart on the planet having at least one bad wheel.
Using Your Kids Against You
Walk into any supermarket and you'll be greeted at the door by the mash-up of smooth jazz and at least a dozen squalling children. Candy, cookies and all the diabestest cereals are usually grouped together in a single aisle feared by mothers everywhere, with the most expensive stuff all shelved at kiddie eye-level. Some supermarkets even offer kid "cooking" classes, which teach a lot more about brand recognition than cooking. Your kid might not know his ABCs, but at least he knows I Can't Believe It's Not Butter now has even more butter taste.
If your mother loved you, she'd buy you this.
"Deals" That are Anything But
Most sales or discounts actually cost you money as typically only the most expensive items are marked down (your 10-cents off five pounds of beluga caviar coupon might not be the hot bargain you think it is). Beware "Buy 5 for 5.99!" style offers, as frequently it's actually less expensive to buy the items individually.
Also your friendly neighborhood grocer isn't afraid to blatantly steal from you at the checkout, just ask the guy who, unlike most, decided to actually pay attention to the scanner at a supermarket where you got free items if you were overcharged. By the end of the year he took home $4,000 in free food.
Grab Bag of Douchebaggery
Supermarkets keep the lights too bright and Muzak overly loud because making you uncomfortable will keep you from making smart shopping decisions. Even those delicious cubes of cheese on toothpicks they give you are a scam (they don't care about selling you cheese, they just want to get your gastric juices flowing). We suggest next time you're hungry you save yourself a headache, grab a rock and see if you can't nail yourself a squirrel for dinner.
The best meat is in the tail.
#3. The Restaurant
But perhaps you prefer to leave the tiresome business of food preparation to others. Well don't think you're avoiding being screwed (and we're not just talking about the gallon of waiter and busboy fluids you've consumed due to your lousy tipping).
Eat and Get the Hell Out
There's nothing casual about "casual dining" chains. Their goal is to make you spend as much as possible, as quickly as possible, then clear you out to make room for next minivan full of jalapeno popper-hungry mouths.
To keep you from lingering, chairs are ass-numbingly uncomfortable, the restaurant is divided up into sections to prevent a social atmosphere, and as many tables as possible are "un-anchored" away from walls or partitions (we tend to feel uncomfortable sitting out in the open and won't stick around). Warm colors have been shown to make us eat more and move on quicker, as has fast paced music (as a rule don't eat anywhere with "Flight of the Bumblebee" playing over the speakers).
Getting Less for More
In troubled economic times everyone becomes united in a single goal: chiseling as much money as they can out of everyone else; this includes restaurants, who are using the current economy as an excuse to raise prices while simultaneously cutting down on portions.
Plates are subtly reduced in size and raised in the middle, concealing reduced portion sizes. Even silverware is taken into account, as restaurants will use lighter forks, making the weight of the food on it more noticeable, causing you to think your bites are more substantial. The quality of ingredients is also dropping, with food being aggressively recycled, even picked right out of the trash, and less expensive ingredients are substituted for what's printed on the menu (hey, it all tastes like chicken anyways).
Menu design has become an exact science with the most profitable items placed in the upper left-hand corner (the third dish down is always the most popular item on any menu). Menus today are basically porn for fat people, with the emphasis on big sexy pictures and over-elaborate descriptions, with prices obscured or spelled out (instead of using numbers) so you won't notice them until you've already become smitten with a particularly alluring chunk of meat.
The Dreaded Bill
Heart skip a beat when the bill arrived? Could be they were charging for those obligatory breadsticks, or pouring you bottled water instead of tap. They may have automatically included a 12 - 15% tip "for your convenience" which often leads to accidental double-tipping. Though it may be worth it if it prevents the waiter from putting his dick in your milkshake next time.

Clackamas County Sheriff's Dept., Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — Gunfire rang out in the mall food court, instantly transforming a casual afternoon of holiday shopping into a nightmare. The shooter, armed with a rifle, was dressed in dark clothing and wore a hockey-style face mask.
As panicked shoppers fled for cover, workers ushered some into hiding places within stores, or helped them to the exits. The first officers to arrive formed groups and rushed into the chaos, rather than waiting for the more heavily armed SWAT team.
"If we would have run out, we would have ran right into it," said Kaelynn Keelin, who saw a window get shot out and, along with other Made In Oregon co-workers, pulled customers into the store for shelter.
The quick mobilization of mall workers and police reflects the reality that, while mass shootings are rare, they have forced authorities to rehearse for such outbreaks of violence as if they are the norm.
"This could have been much, much worse," Clackamas County Sheriff Craig Roberts said.
Roughly 10,000 people were inside the Clackamas Town Center on Tuesday afternoon, when police say Jacob Tyler Roberts, 22, armed himself with an AR-15 semiautomatic rifle he stole from someone he knew, and went on a rampage that left two people dead.
The sheriff said the rifle jammed during the attack, but the shooter managed to get it working again. He later shot himself. The sheriff and Roberts are not related.
As authorities tried to determine a motive for a shooting they said had no specific targets, details emerged about Roberts from acquaintances and neighbors. They described him as relaxed, friendly and outgoing.
"Jake was never the violent type," Roberts' ex-girlfriend, Hannah Patricia Sansburn, told ABC News. "His main goal was to make you laugh, smile, make you feel comfortable. You can't reconcile the differences. I hate him for what he did, but I can't hate the person I knew because it was nothing like the person who would go into a mall and go on a rampage."
Sansburn said Roberts had recently quit his job at a gyro shop in Portland and sold all of his belongings, telling her that he was moving to Hawaii. He was supposed to take a flight Saturday but told her he got drunk and missed it.
"And then this happens. ... It makes me think, was he even planning on going to Hawaii?" Sansburn said.
A former neighbor of Roberts said that he liked to play video games and never seemed troubled.
"He was like a rapper. He would rap all the time," said Samantha Bennett, who said she went to middle school with Roberts but wasn't close to him until he moved in with a girlfriend across the hall from her at an apartment complex in summer 2011.
His dining room was decorated like a jungle, Bennett said, with vines on the walls and a monkey. He once showed her a black handgun that she believed he purchased legally. He dropped out of sight earlier this year, and his phone was disconnected, she said.
Roberts rented a basement room in a modest, single-story Portland home and hadn't lived there long, said a neighbor, Bobbi Bates. She said she saw him leave at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday wearing a dark jacket and jeans, carrying a guitar case.
Roberts had several fully loaded magazines when he arrived at the mall, the sheriff said. He parked his 1996 green Volkswagen Jetta in front of the second-floor entrance to Macy's and walked through the store into the mall and began firing randomly in the food court.
He fatally shot Steven Mathew Forsyth, 45, and Cindy Ann Yuille, 54, the sheriff said. Kristina Shevchenko, 15, was wounded and in serious condition Wednesday, police said.
On average, there are about 20 mass murders every year, and the trend has been steady since the 1970s, said James Alan Fox, a professor of criminology at Northeastern University in Boston and author of five books on mass murder.

St. Cloud
April 30, 2010
I'm driving up to St. Cloud tomorrow morning (EARLY! auuugh…6:30) to take photos for the Arthritis Foundation. There's an arthritis fundraising walk going on there, similar to the annual one in the Twin Cities and the JAM walk I volunteered for in March. It's a really nice course/path by the river and I'm looking forward to it. I just hope I can drag myself out of bed and get there in time. I am NOT a morning person, and I've had to wake up super early every day this week for Census training. It will be worth it though. Let's hope I get some good pictures (I'll post them on here sometime soon, probably).
Sleep…sleep…I JUST WANT TO SLEEP. uhhhhhh.
And my body is hurting worse as I wait to get accepted for Remicade assistance. I worked two hours this morning for the Census and then 5+ hours at Dan's typing/data entry. By the time I left there my wrists, hands, and shoulders were throbbing. My right hand is starting to swell, too, which is worrying. I just hope my application with the Health Well Foundation goes through next week. Why must these things take so long? I need my drug now! I refuse to go back on prednisone.
ok, goodnight invisible readers

I have just dropped into your blog. June2010. and have read about your plight. I have been a sufferer of seropositive RA for three years now and sympathise greatly with you. I am female and in my early seventies. Having always been a fit individual and never having to take tablets of any sort all of my life I took it badly when the THING decended upon me and my lifestyle. The one great thing I have is an RA Consultant, and our NHS blanket of care.
My consultant is the best in the world he is caring and diligent in his approach and i have email access to him if I have a problem. The NHS (the National Health Service in England) again is the best available, as I have found out.
I find that stress does play a big part in the oncome of flare ups ans of course doing too much exercise, however there needs to be some movement to keep your joints healthy. But for myself I am now on a manageable routine with methotrexate and only 2 mg prednisolone per day and the odd peracetamol. I must say that I am to understand that prednisolone is not to be played around with and should only be taken under medical advice and not on an ad-hock basis.
I privately had allergy tests done and found i was intolerant to wheat and gluton and oats, I immediately dropped these from my diet and lost a stone without any problem. that was ten months ago and i have stayed at that same weight and the pains have lifted and i feel so much better, my insides work well without problems. i also added nettle tea and green tea with lemon. I have just started to reintroduce the wheat again very slowly and sparingly and(ie. one bread bun per week) and a couple of brandys per week, with soda of course.I sypmathise that you do not seem to be getting the crucial attention needed with this disease, nor the guidance to your medication and lifestyle. please contact me if you wish. Keep moving. I wouold just add that I also had the RA throughout the body top to toe, now with care the THING just visits now and again bu without the intensity that it used to be however that hands are a big problem.

The Runway Cheat Sheet
In New York, a New Silhouette, Fall Fur and Teal Appeal
New York Fashion Week has served up more drama than usual, with John Galliano taking a turn at Oscar de la Renta two years after being fired at Dior, Thom Browne strewing a runway with corpselike men, and Marc Jacobs upending his show schedule because materials got stuck in customs.
Yet drama was rare among the clothes. Sedate colors such as gray—accented by teal, purple and burnt orange—dominated the runways. Subtlety characterized the big new silhouette—ladylike volume at the shoulders and back that recalls Paris in the '50s before the Dior 'New Look.'
Some previous trends got a replay, such as men's-style shoes, chunky heels and below-knee skirt lengths. Color-blocking remained big, though designers were experimenting with combining blocks of textures or patterns, such as fur with knits at Victoria Beckham and Alexander Wang and herringbone with glen plaid at Thom Browne and Tommy Hilfiger.
New fabrics heightened the dramatic effect of many collections. Barbara Tfank's "rambling rose" brocade looked like it weighed a ton but was light to the hand—the result, she said, of innovations in weaving at an English factory.
With the fall 2013 fashion shows moving on to London on Friday and then to Milan and finally Paris, New York is likely to be remembered for some notable collections and harbingers of fall.
The New Black
It isn't a color; it's a shape. New York's big silhouette for fall 2013 has a softly voluminous shoulder and a curvilinear back. The volume, often achieved with new fabrics that hold their shape, showed up all over, including Yeohlee, Vera Wang, The Row and Zac Posen. "It's giving silhouettes a whole new form," says Jaclyn Jones, womenswear editor for fashion consultants WGSN. Olivier Theyskens, whose collection for Theyskens Theory was full of the look, pointed out a plus for consumers. "Very comfy," he explained. "Almost like a robe for sleeping."
Elevating Alexander Wang
As this young designer prepares to show his first collection as Balenciaga's creative director in Paris, the question has been whether the label will step down to Alexander Wang or if he will step up to Balenciaga. In his own label's show, we have our answer. The young, hip and restless Mr. Wang may have made his name with luxe T-shirts, but he has clearly studied the graceful, voluminous curves that made an icon of Cristobal Balenciaga. (These curves seem to have inspired many New York designers this season. Were they thinking about the Balenciaga job while designing their collections?)
A Designer's Dream
Fresh off dressing Michelle Obama for the inauguration, Thom Browne rocked fashion week with the sort of conceptual show usually seen in Paris, set among male models trussed to iron beds in a snowy forest. The giant square jackets and insanely draped Miss Havisham gowns may not be the thing for a state dinner. But his collection encapsulated many of the futuristic trends playing out all over New York's runways: tweeds, blocking of color, patterns and textures, volume at the shoulders, and graceful waists under boxy jackets.
Fresh Labels to Watch
Discovering labels is what fashion week is all about. Ostwald Helgason has "cool girl" written all over it and comes from two cerebral London-based designers, Susanne Ostwald and Ingvar Helgason. This season's inspiration—dark French poetry and "Little Shop of Horrors"—suggests a street-nerd sensibility. "We like to mix things up," Mr. Helgason said. Under the sure hand of designer Josep Font, Delpozo is the other end of fashion—total luxury with haute-couture details like elaborate pleating and hand embellishment. In another mash-up, Mr. Font described his collection as "organic architecture and the Victorian era." Wes Gordon's show venue, the grungy Gramercy Theatre, hid the luster of his luxe label. But his collection is memorable, with items such as a blouse woven of 90% metal threads.
Fur Contraptions
This season is notable for strange tricks with fur. Alexander Wang's gigantic fur yeti mittens may make fun fashion editorials, but they'd make it hard for a woman to search for her keys. Joseph Altuzarra gets a misdemeanor citation for Weird Use of Fur for odd intarsia-like fur embellishments on leather and fabric. One dress evoked Bo Peep with fur.
Pony Skin
Actually, it's usually calfskin with hair on it. But pony appears to be part of the progression away from ubiquitous black motorcycle leather. Sewn to sweaters or blocked onto skirts, dresses and jackets, the material offers texture, exoticism and a luxe look in a variety of labels, from Tory Burch and Philip Lim to Victoria Beckham and The Row.
Go Long on Teal, Purple
Designers have been sneaking some new colors into the palette, and teal and purple (two colors that pair well) have been fresh and popular, if not exactly daring, in many collections, including those of Nanette Lepore, Vera Wang, Naeem Kahn, Patrick Ervell and Tracy Reese. Some retailers seem pleased. "I'm loving purple right now," Ken Downing, Bergdorf's fashion director, hollered across a runway at the Tory Burch show.
Glory Days
Three designers whose heydays came in earlier decades threw down the gauntlet this season and returned to their essential selves: Diane von Furstenberg, Tommy Hilfiger, and Donna Karan. DVF and Tommy were going it alone, without the designers they had been working with in the past few seasons. Ms. von Furstenberg's disco sensibility shone through a collection that included her famous wrap dresses, and Ms. Karan, who announced on her show program, "I am a New York Woman," created a collection based on seven pieces that could be worn by working women anywhere "in any culture." Sound familiar? Welcome back.
Galliano Returns
Sort of. Oscar de la Renta welcomed the disgraced couturier to collaborate on this collection, leading to questions about what two skilled but different designers would do. The result: a split-personality collection in which one could make a sport of identifying which looks were whose. Finely draped suiting looked like pure John Galliano. Vivacious gowns, de la Renta.

When a girl's miraculously fake hair is woven in so fiercely that it will even stop bullets.
(Just like the girl in Kansas City who escaped death because her hair was so nappy.)

How to start learning photography?
There are a number of options for how to start learning photography. I suppose it depends on where you're coming from -- what you want to learn, where you live, how you learn... these sorts of things.
A few options for a total beginner:
So look around -- online, or in your area -- and see what's out there. Then decide what's best for you... or just jump in to whatever's the first or easiest thing you find, and see where it takes you.
Happy shooting!
P.S. there's a question on this site about which blogs to follow which you may also find (the answers to) useful.
Learning Photography is equal parts theory and practice. The following book helped me in getting started - http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Exposure-Photographs-Digital-Updated/dp/0817463003. It has lots of excellent photographs to illustrate the finer points. This book should serve as a companion piece - http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Shutter-Speed-Low-Light-Photography/dp/0817463011/
Other than that you should slowly add individual topics to your knowledge. White Balance for instance. Cambridge in Colour - is a good place for such topics.
Read the detailed review on DPreview to get a better idea of how cameras work.
And be sure to put into practice what you learn!
"The Joy Of Photography" published by Eastman Kodak Co. is a great book for beginners. (I'm not related to the authors)
When I bought my first dSLR two years ago I (1) read the manual, (2) tried to take as many pictures I could, (3) learned from my mistakes, (4) experimented with manual mode, ...
A great resource along the way have been the (almost) weekly episodes of DTown, an online show produced for amateur photographers. They cover everything from techniques to gear. I've really learned a lot from Scott, Matt, Larry, RC and the rest of the guys on Kelby TV.
What worked for me:
It looks like there are already a lot of great answers listed here. I'd like to throw out a couple options that haven't already been mentioned.
good luck!
DPSchool is another great resource.
Whatever the media may be (books, classes, internet) it's important to understand the basics: Composition, Light, Colour.

Australian Flood Studies Database
|A Flood Study is a comprehensive technical investigation of flood behaviour. It defines the nature and extent of flooding across the landscape by providing information such as the extent, level and velocity of floodwaters and the distribution of flood flows. The Australian Flood Studies Database provides metadata on Australian flood studies and information on flood risk. It contains general information for all studies, including the study location, date, commissioning organisation and lead consultant. Additional information reflects the scope of each flood study. The types of additional information which may be included fall into nine categories, including hydrological estimates, hydraulic modelling, damage assessments, terrain survey, survey of building floor levels, maps of inundation extent, maps of flood hazard, flood mitigation strategies and post flood information. Where available, attachments of the flood studies and associated reports are included. The ownership of each Flood Study remains with the commissioning organisation and/or author as indicated with each study, and users of the database should refer to the reports themselves to determine any constraints in their usage. The database uses boundary datasets that are published by other agencies: - Catchment Area Data Source: Geofabric 2011 (V2.0.1) data © Commonwealth of Australia (Bureau of Meteorology) 2011 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/au/deed.en - Local Government Area Data Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics 2011, Local Government Areas ASGS Non ABS Structures Ed 2011 Digital Boundaries in ESRI Shapefile Format, cat. no. 1270.0.55.003, retrieved 18 October 2012

CHARLESTON - What started on the Charleston Civic Center floor a year earlier, ended there Saturday, in emphatic, if not thrilling, fashion.
A year after falling to Charleston Catholic in the West Virginia Class A state championship game, Wheeling Central atoned, outscoring the Irish 15-6 in the second overtime to claim the title 64-55.
It is the 11th Secondary School Activities Commission boys' basketball state title for the Maroon Knights, which moves them into second place all-time, ahead of one-time dynasty and powerhouse Northfork. Only tradition-laden Woodrow Wilson in Beckley has more with 16.
Article Photos
It wasn't easy.
"I knew it was going to be a battle," Wheeling Central coach Mel Stephens said of the program's first title since 2009. "It didn't start out real well. But I'll give our kids credit. They fought and kept us just close enough."
In the second overtime, Wheeling Central (25-3), which won 17 straight to close the season, caught fire when Chase Harler converted a three-point play.
A possession later he made a free throw to stretch the lead to 53-49.
Harler and teammate David Park, then added a free throw each to push the lead to 55-49.
A Harler floater kept lead at six before Nick George cut it in half with a 3.
But Park, who had struggled most of the game and didn't hit his first field goal until late in the fourth quarter, hit four straight free throws and Boyd Bibey added two to seal it.
"I thought that was a great Class A state championship game," Charleston Catholic coach Bill McClanahan said. "I wish we could have been on the other side of it. I don't have any reservations or concerns with how we played. For Wheeling Central to come out on top after the way we played, my hat is off to them."
Indeed, it wasn't what Central was looking for out of the gate.
The Maroon Knights fell behind 18-6 early in the second quarter.
"I got the feeling early this was going to be a strange game," Stephens said. "When Joey (John) and C.J. (Burch) hit our first two baskets, and David and Chase hadn't scored, I knew something strange might happen."
What happened was Harler came alive in the second half, and Park, while not scoring, was a monster on the boards.
Harler had 22 second-half and overtime points and 30 overall and Park finished with 10 points and 14 rebounds.
"The shots weren't dropping," Park said. "I just trust my teammates so when I'm not hitting I get them the ball. Fortunately they came through."
Yet so did Park, Stephens said.
"I don't know about other teams, but rebounding is big on our board," Stephens said. "David had a big putback rebound (which pulled Central to within one with 4:52 left, his lone field goal) and even more important were the defensive rebounds because it limited (Charleston Catholic's) opportunities."
Despite falling behind, Central continued to fight back and eventually took the lead on a Harler 3.
Park made a pair of free throws but Garret McCarty made two of his own to tie it at 45-45.
Central dribbled the time down but Harler missed on a pull-up 3 as time expired.
The teams traded a pair of free throws and a field goal each in the first overtime, setting up the second OT finish by Central.
"I'm just proud to coach these kids and happy for our seniors," Stephens said. "They worked hard for this and battled all season."
"I wanted the seniors to go out as champions," Harler said. "Really, it hasn't even sunk in yet."
The game was the final for McClanahan, who said he modeled his program after Wheeling Central when he took over as head coach in the 2002 season.
"They were the gold standard in Class A basketball," McClanahan said.
George had 20 points and 12 rebounds for Catholic (21-7) and McCarty had 17. Patrick Hurlihey added 14 rebounds,

To the editor:
You won't see or hear about this team on the gridiron and you won't see the best competitor on the front page of the sports section.
I would like to take a moment to let you know about another team in the valley that deserves the same kind of recognition mentioned above. On Oct. 13, the Edison FFA Forestry Team competed in Nelsonville at the State FFA Forestry Competition. After a few years of being just outside of the top five, Edison came in first place. Matt Stevens, a senior, had the best score in the state. Blaine Cline and Conrad Shafer were fourth and fifth, respectively, with Clifford Glenn 26th and Taylor Tinney 71st.
These boys took time on weekends and after school to study, yes, I said study, for the competition. The contest is comprised of a written test as well as various practicums such as compass reading, determining board feet, tree identification and disease, as well as other items that a forester would need to do his or her job. When it was discovered that the team won the state competition, there was no question that they would go on to compete at the national level in Indianapolis, just two weeks later. Among all their other activities such as part-time jobs, homework, marching band and practicing for the high school musical, these boys continued to prepare for the national contest. In the meantime, they approached businesses in the community, asking for their support in going to the competition in Indianapolis. They were graciously given donations from the following: Kuester Implement, Denoon Lumber, Jefferson County Farm Bureau, Sportsman's Trading Post, Two Ridge Veterinary Hospital, Harold LeMasters, Stimmel Construction, Buckeye Mechanical and SPM Fleet. A heartfelt thanks goes out to these businesses and neighbors for helping out the team.
It should also be noted that a member of the community showed support by placing signs of encouragement on posts heading out of Richmond. It made the boys feel proud and that their hometown was behind them because someone made the effort to show their support.
So, how did they do at the national competition on Oct. 25? They finished an impressive 11th place in the nation, earning a gold rating. If you see these young men, please congratulate them. If you frequent the businesses that helped sponsor the team, please let them know what a great thing they did by supporting local youth.
Amie R. Cline

From Russia with Love
The songs of Russia filled the Center Club in Costa Mesa and the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall during Pacific Symphony's 35th anniversary opening night fete, which paid homage to composer Sergei Rachmaninoff. Talents from UCI performed folk dances, and soprano Kellee King sang "Vocalise." But the highlight came when virtuoso Conrad Tao—just 19 and already the recipient of international acclaim—gave life to "Piano Concerto No. 3." It all helped garner $165,000 for the orchestra's artistic and education programs, ensuring there will never be a night without music. We like the sound of that! Photography by Nicholas Koon

Can "drive someone home" be used when the vehicle is a motorbike? Can I use "ride someone home" with the same meaning as "drive someone home"?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
Well the original definition of "to drive" was to compel something to move by force.
For instance, the phrase "I drive my friend" could have an entirely different connotation if you add "to succeed in sports". Now you're driving him morally, not within a car.
The word drive is, in this way, very flexible. The original definitions extends to metaphors and analogies, meaning any time you're influencing something towards a certain ends you can consider it driving.
Therefore, yes- you can grammatically say you "drive you friend" on a motorbike.
The reason it sounds strange is because any time you're talking about a motorbike you expect to hear the word "ride", not "drive". This is simply a common cultural pattern. In your specific case, however, saying you "ride someone home" is not the same as "drive someone home".
"To ride" is to be in or on something that is moving. Thus, if you "ride your friend home", you're on your friend's back and riding him like a horse =)
If you want to use the word ride, try:
"I gave my friend a ride home", or "I rode my friend home on my bike".
Note that the second is acceptable because the preposition "on" clearly identifies the direct object (the object being ridden), which leaves the other noun ("my friend") to be the indirect object - one who is affected by the act of you riding the bike.
I would describe this situation as 'giving someone a lift home'.

To the editor:
The first time we heard "So God Made A Farmer," (think Super Bowl commercial), we were milking cows one night in 1988 and had the radio tuned to Paul Harvey and his commentary, "The Rest of the Story."
After reading "So God Made a Farmer" this morning, I have a few thoughts to share.
The ninth day, and now you know the rest of the story!
And on the ninth day God looked down on his planned paradise and said, "I need a dedicated news reporter."
So God made Paul Harvey.
God said, "I need somebody willing to get up before dawn, produce and deliver the morning news, work all day examining national and world news, deliver a news broadcast again, then go back to the typewriter and stay up past midnight to edit 'The Rest of the Story.'"
So God made Paul Harvey.
God said "I need somebody willing to sit up all night watching a tragic event unfold to its unhappy end, and dry his eyes and report the story with hope for a better tomorrow. I need somebody who can shape a meaningful news segment from the bits and pieces provided by those who where there. Who can find the story of a better mankind in the insignificant actions of diverse ordinary people. Who year in and year out can put in his first 40- hour week by Tuesday noon and then, ignoring writer's cramp, put in another 72 hours."
So God made Paul Harvey.
God said "I need somebody strong enough to clean away the hype from an important story and then report the real meat of it, yet gentle enough to have compassion for those involved and all who hear him and will take the time to report a human interest story that he believes everyone needs to hear."
So God made Paul Harvey.
It had to be somebody who would look deep into the heart of the story, tell it straight and not cut corners. Somebody to travel, dig, question, analyze and boil the information down to what was truly important. Somebody who would show America the importance of family and the strength that comes from pulling together, who would laugh, and then sigh, and reply with smiling eyes when his son says that he wants to spend his life doing what dad does.
So God made Paul Harvey.

Steve Lewis/Durango Herald file photo
Steve Lewis/Durango Herald file photo
The Fort Lewis College men�s soccer team is filling up with Durango Demons.
Durango High School alumnus Tim Hubertus is one of four more players FLC head coach Oige Kennedy added to the Skyhawks� 2012 roster in hopes of bolstering his defending NCAA Division II national championship team next year. Hubertus will be the fourth former Demon on the 2012 roster after graduating this spring.
The midfielder will join defender Maik Brandt of Stadthagen, Germany, midfielder Brandon Dooley of Valencia, Calif., and forward Casey Higgins of Missoula, Mont., on the 2012 team.
Hubertus � 6-1 and 165 pounds � was a three-year starter at center midfielder and forward for Durango, earning first team all-conference honors and DHS�s Golden Boot (most goals) award as a senior, as well as second team all-conference and the Silver Boot (most assists) as a junior.
�We are very happy to be able to add another local player of such quality to our squad,� Kennedy said in a news release. �Tim is a player we have known for a long time and have had the opportunity to work with him as a (Durango Youth Soccer Association) player, and we have been following his progress in the past few seasons. He has areas he will need to improve on but has good vision on the field, is competitive in the tackle, and we feel he is athletic enough to develop into a top college player.�
Hubertus joins DHS alumni Dawson Emrich, Nick Hofman and Joe Casey on the FLC roster.
FLC seems to have a soft spot for Germans, too.
At 6�1, 165, Brandt is a left back who is transferring to Fort Lewis after attending school in Germany for two years. He has six semesters of college eligibility left and will be considered a sophomore on the FLC roster.
Kennedy said Brandt has an �impressive soccer r�sum� that will add a �wealth of experience� to a young Skyhawks� team.
The 6-foot, 140-pound Dooley was a four-year starter at midfield and forward at West Ranch High School in Calif., where he graduated in the spring. He helped West Ranch win back-to-back Football League championships from 2010-11 and was the league�s most valuable player as a senior.
During his nine years of club experience, Dooley also helped his South Bay Force U17 team win a national championship, Premier League championship and an undefeated season.
Dooley�s strong soccer background has allowed him to develop the technical ability Fort Lewis looks for in its players, and he tries to play the �correct way,� Kennedy said.
Higgins, the 6-3, 185-pound forward from Hellgate High School in Mont. was a three-year starting forward in both soccer and hockey, helping his school win a state championship in each sport � 2011 for soccer and 2010 for hockey. He played on Montana�s 2011 U18 state championship team, too.
In high school, his team was named the Great Falls Tribune Super State Soccer Team in 2011, and he won all-state and all-conference honors in 2010 and 2011, as well as Hellgate�s most valuable player on offense.
Higgins scored the second most points all-time in Hellgate High School history.
Kennedy called Higgins a �powerful forward who strikes a great ball and is able to hold the ball up and bring the players around him into the game.�
Kennedy, according to the news release, expects to add a handful of additional commitments in the coming weeks before the team reports for fall training Aug. 12.

I hate to get murder jobs in the game (what should I tell Michelle?) Until now I basically played the missions as usual, but as the game is "open-world" (well, is it?) I thought I could maybe play it differently. Right now I'm right before the "No Love Lost" mission, where I have to kill the biker boyfriend of Faustin's daughter. I don't mind getting unnerving people out of my way, but I'm certainly not born to be a hitman for other assholes. How can I avoid killing people in the game but still advance in missions?
It's... not that sort of game. Some of the missions explicitly require you to kill one or more people - including unarmed people. It's disconcerting, yes, but I'm pretty sure there's no way to advance the plot without doing these kinds of missions. The GTA series is infamous for the terrible things you do - it has missions in which you beat up juries, missions when you distribute drugs to kids, missions when you bury people alive, etc.
Alternatively, you can forget about the main plot entirely and just play the game as an open-ended sandbox, taking jobs as paramedic, vigilante, competing in races, etc. (though you have to kill some people just to unlock those options...).
One final thing, if you want to avoid running over pedestrians during intense car chases, use the horn! Pedestrians will run away and jump out of the way when you honk. It's also useful for warning other cars - so useful, in fact, that I've bound the horn to one of my mouse buttons (playing on the PC).
IIRC, for the "Kill Faustin's Kid's Inappropriate Boyfriend" mission, you can convince him to leave without killing him. In a lot of "kill people" missions, you have the opportunity to just run them off.
However he's a hardcore scumbag, and armed to boot. I wouldn't worry about killing him. Save your worry for when you have to snuff more ethical people.
Not that kind of game. Besides, the biker guy is a gang member who is armed and will kill you. It is also revealed his gang is involved in a turf war. He's just another scumbag

A hand-assembled 7.0L LS7 engine is the heart of Camaro Z/28, boasting an incredible 505 horsepower and 481 lb.-ft. of torque, making it the most powerful normally aspirated regular production GM small block V8 ever.
Co-developed with Corvette Racing, the LS7 uses lightweight racing-quality components like titanium intake valves and connecting rods to ensure high performance and durability, even when redlining at 7000 rpm. The racing-style cold air induction system and large K&N air filter and standard dual-mode exhaust system maximize airflow, torque and sound generated by the LS7 engine. A 10.5-quart dry-sump oiling system distributes pressurized oil to protect engine components during high-g driving conditions, ensuring consistent, reliable performance.
If you're on the race track and all four wheels of your Z/28 leave the ground during certain conditions, ride height sensors are enabled that temporarily disable traction control so that when the car lands it is still at full power, for the quickest possible lap times.
Z/28 attains the highest level of aerodynamic performance ever achieved in the history of Camaro. Carefully engineered aerodynamic elements help Z/28 produce an incredible 410 lbs. more downforce than Camaro SS at 150 mph. An exclusive, aggressively styled rear spoiler and large splitter help achieve such downforce and a hood air extractor helps cool the engine while also contributing to the overall track performance of Z/28. An optional adjustable rear wickerbill tops off this impressive aerodynamic package, when equipped.
Camaro Z/28 features Brembo® Carbon Ceramic-Matrix™ rotors and fixed, monobloc calipers like those used on high-performance supercars. The huge 394 mm x 36 mm front rotors are paired with 6-piston calipers, while the 390 mm x 32 mm rear rotors are paired with 4-piston calipers, helping to save even more weight. The combination of tire grip and braking power enables Camaro Z/28 to achieve 1.5 g in deceleration, and standard front brake cooling ducts allow for continuous track use.

SPOTLIGHT ON:(Back to Menu)
Faculty Share Some Summer Reading Selections
Seven Rutgers School of Law–Newark faculty on what their summer reading list includes.
Diana Sclar
Associate Professor of Law and Allan Axelrod Scholar
This summer I read Alison Weir's The Wars of the Roses and The Princes in the Tower.
I wish I had read both when they were published about 30 years ago. Together they cover the period between 1377 and 1485 which involved a long-drawn-out feud for the English Crown. The books' emphasis on personalities provided an antidote to the rather dry material I teach in Estates in Land and Future Interests.
Although development of law is important, it's easy to forget that political upheaval and dramatic changes in society often occur on account of people rather than law.
Robert Holmes
Clinical Professor of Law, Deputy Director of Clinical Programs, and Director of the Community Law Clinic
I have a book waiting to be read that was recommended to me by Clem Price [Rutgers Board of Governors Distinguished Service Professor Clement A. Price].
The author is E. Frederic Morrow: a Hackensack native, 1948 Rutgers–Newark Law School graduate, the first African American to hold an executive position in the White House (under Dwight Eisenhower), and later the first African American vice president at Bank of America.
Among his books are Black Man in the While House and Way Up North Down South, which is the one on my current to-read list. During this heated presidential campaign, Clem Price offers the book as a glimpse at the history of New Jersey relative to race.
General conclusion of the book: New Jersey is a border state.
Frank Askin
Distinguished Professor of Law and Director of the Constitutional Litigation Clinic
I have just read (actually, listened on tape) to John Grisham's The Litigators.
It is a book I would recommend to all law students – a terrific supplement to the Civil Procedure course. Despite a couple of procedural errors, it is a great read and provides much insight into complex litigation and the interaction between lawyers and judges.
The major error has to do with the application of Rule 11. Apparently, Grisham abandoned the practice of law prior to the 1996 Amendments to the Rules of Civil Procedure, which created the "safe harbor" provision and essentially de-fanged Rule 11.
Chrystin Ondersma
Assistant Professor of Law
Some of the books I've read this summer:
Milan Kundera – The Book of Laughter and Forgetting. Kundera is one of those writers with the delightful and irksome characteristic of precisely capturing things you've vaguely felt but never managed to turn into words.
Julian Barnes – The Sense of an Ending. Who can resist a book on a theme as universally shared as the inadvertent re-writing of our youth, the gross imperfections of memory?
Nicholas Wapshott – Keynes-Hayek: The Clash That Defined Modern Economics. You get to hear Ayn Rand call Hayek an "abysmal fool," an "ass," and a "complete vicious bastard."
Dave Eggers – What Is the What. He's a magnificent storyteller, his characters endure the real-life horrors of South Sudan (horrors that are continuing in only slightly different forms today, by the way) but they are full of courage, resilience, and humor.
David Dante Troutt
Professor of Law and Justice John J. Francis Scholar
My favorite so far is a short gem of a novel by Julian Barnes called The Sense of an Ending.
It's a beautifully crafted recollection of how a single story in a life can reconstruct so many important interactions over time.
Not perfect, but it holds nicely and provides lots of satisfying "ah ha" moments.
George C. Thomas III
Board of Governors Professor of Law and Judge Alexander P. Waugh, Sr. Distinguished Scholar
While there are lots of books I want to read this summer, the one I'm most looking forward to reading is Stephen King's 11-23-63.
Most of my research in the last few years draws on history, and I am fascinated by the apparent contingency of history.
I take it that the King book is about an attempt to go back in time and "undo" the Kennedy assassination. I'm not a huge Stephen King fan but I do like some of his fantasy books (The Gunslinger, for one) and a friend told me that 11-23-63 is a lively, provocative read.
Saul Mendlovitz
Dag Hammarskjöld Professor of Peace and World Order Studies Emeritus
I'm reading The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelili and the The Art of War by Sun Tzu in preparation for teaching the Law and Humanities Seminar. Both are classics and have been selected by good Dean John Farmer and most eminent scholar George Thomas, who are my colleagues in conducting the seminar.

5.1 Home Theater Surround Sound System / Computer Speakers Theater Solutions TS515 for $69.99 + free shipping
Play it loud enough that the neighbor's complain. It'll give you the perfect in to tell them you turned it up to drown out their sex noises.
6 Comments add a comment
This doesn't seem to have HDMI or any type of S/PDIF digital sound input (RCA or TOSLINK). It only has 3 separate pairs of analog inputs for only one device. Pretty hard to hook a TV to this then.
I don't understand all of the positive votes. Do people realize what they are voting for?
I have purchased a similar unit from these guys TS512, paid more, I was very happy with it. Used RCA cables from my flat screen to connect. I have it hooked up to our television in our Master Bedroom. I like the bass, had to purchase extender cables for the rear speakers.
This looks comparable to the Logitech X-540 5.1 Surround Sound Speaker System model. the specs have the same output 40HZ - 20KHZ Frequency response as this one. Never heard of the manufacturer (Home theater?) however Logitech has quality stuff.
Only 2.5 star rating on Amazon.
Rarely a good sign when all of the "customer" reviews are very positive, from the same date, and just happen to cover a shockingly wide spectrum of conditions. Amazon reviews on this one are probably more accurate.
These are the types of fake speakers a scam artist will tell you are worth a grand or two but will make you the deal of your life for $100 or blah-dollars.
Stay away from this garbage-fest.
Clues: No name or unheard of brand. outrageous MSRP's. It's a 5.1. (5.1 newbies make great victims as they crave the surround sound status.)
Walgreens/CVS sells better systems with a DVD player included usually. Usually cheaper too.

Scripture: Joshua 13:1 When Joshua had grown old, the LORD said to him, "You are now very old, and there is still very large areas of land to be taken over."
Observation: I had to laugh when I read this verse this morning. If the LORD says you are old, you must really be old! Ha! Here is the Ancient of Days saying that Joshua is old! And the LORD just does not call Joshua "old," but "very old!" The King James Version reads, "The LORD said unto him, 'Thou art old and stricken in years…'" God did not say that Joshua had entered into his "senior" years, or was "elderly. Today I think He would have said, "Face it Josh, you are really old!"
Application: The Lord knows the seasons of my life! He knows my childhood, my youth, my adult life, AND my golden years, as some like to say. Joshua was old, but God still had an assignment for him. God has an assignment for me—and those who read the SOAP know what it is.
Prayer: Lord, thanks for the chuckle this morning. Help me be faithful in fulfilling my "senior" assignments. Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

I use Fedora 13 and very recently i brought a new Apple iPOD shuffle. I would like to know whether i can transfer music without using iTunes into my iPOD. I tried using gtkPOD and RhythmicBox, but thats is of no avail.
I'm not sure about state now but Apple is know for play of cat and mouse. You may find one day that update of software of iPod had broken its compatibly with Linux by completly redesigning its format.
Until one day someone reverse engeneer the new format and supplied patches for projects. It lasts as long as Apple would not decide to switch format again.
In short: iPod is not the best player for Linux enthusiast but when you have it you may be able to use it.
PS. Also Banshee have iPod support
Your IPod should work with gtkpod which uses the libgpod library, like almost every linux application.
Have a look at http://gtkpod.wikispaces.com/Supported+iPods for your model. After that, have a look at the "Getting Started" Page of the gtkpod project: http://www.gtkpod.org/wiki/Getting_started


text: Since everyone is enjoying the latest lessons I have been submitting on some pretty cool Mario characters, I will keep the momentum going by uploading two more tutorials on the very same subject. To start, let's learn "how to draw Kamek", step by step. Some may not recognize the name, but most will definitely know who this character is by looks. Kamek is what you call an old and powerful Magikoopa. Kamek made his first Mario debut in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, and since then he has been labeled as being another villain that is incredibly annoying and one of the hardest additions in the game series. Now, Kamek is not only an old powerful magician, he is also known to be Bowser's adviser, and he even looks over Baby Bower when he needs or is ordered to. Kamek may only be a secondary character in the Mario series, but he is definitely THE main villain in the Yoshi game series. As far as difficulty goes, I think you should have a rather simple time drawing one of the most recognizable figures from Mario. I shall return with more drawing fun so stay tuned in folks because you are in for the long haul.

Hunters killed 92 sandhill cranes in Kentucky's second hunting season for the bird. That's 42 more than were killed in the previous season.
Most of the birds killed were in Hardin and Barren counties on private land. No more than 400 birds could be hunted during the season. Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Migratory Bird Specialist Rocky Pritchert told WFPL in Louisville the department considers the season a success.
Pritchert says the highest estimates had between 100 and 200 birds being shot.
Three hundred and thirty-two hunters were given permits this year.
There are about 84,000 birds in the eastern population of sandhill cranes. The population would have to fall to about 30,000 before Kentucky cancels the planned three years of hunting.

STEUBENVILLE - A Chicago man who pleaded guilty in a June 2011 shots fired case in the city was sentenced to 30 months in prison on Wednesday by Jefferson County Common Pleas Judge David Henderson.
Jonathan T. Bray, 22, pleaded guilty to complicity to felonious assault and tampering with evidence, His trail was scheduled to start on Thursday before Henderson.
Bray was one of four people indicted in September in connection with the case.
Kinlaw Hendrix, 26, of Steubenville, formerly of Knoxville, Ill., was indicted on charges of felonious assault, menacing by stalking and tampering with evidence, and Chanice D. Adkins, 27, of East Liverpool was indicted on charges of complicity to felonious assault and complicity to tampering with evidence. Justin Campbell, 23, of Chicago was indicted on charges of complicity to felonious assault and tampering with evidence.
Hendrix, Adkins and Campbell have not been served with copies of their indictments. Police are searching for their whereabouts.
County Assistant Prosecutor Frank Bruzzese said Hendrix was involved in an argument with two men on June 8, 2011, in a parking lot in the 1400 block of Maryland Avenue. Hendrix left the scene but returned in an SUV, which was driven by Adkins, with Bray and Campbell as backseat passengers. Bruzzese said Hendrix brandished a firearm and pointed it at one of the men he previously had been arguing with. Hendrix fired several shots as the vehicle sped from the scene. Bruzzese said shots also were fired from the backseat area of the vehicle. He said more shots were fired as the vehicle turned onto Ohio Street.
Bruzzese said the SUV then went to a home in the 1200 block of Pennsylvania Avenue. City Police surrounded the home and found the four SUV occupants inside, along with two other people. Bruzzese said Hendrix, Campbell and Bray hid the firearms used in case in duct work in the basement of the house.
Bruzzese said the case took so long to be presented to the grand jury because of the forensic tests, which included ballistics, DNA and gunshot residue tests.

We know our horses can die, but how can I see if it feels good or is badly wounded?
I don't want to loose my cute little friend, do I need to heal and feed it?
Oh, or ...
is my Shadowmere invulnerable like back in the old times?
We know our horses can die, but how can I see if it feels good or is badly wounded?
Oh, or ...
When its injured a red health bar will appears same as any other creature and no it does not need to be fed. You don't have to heal it since it can't die but if you use it as a tank then helping hands or some other healing spell will help keep it conscious.
He can die, but it is like the NPC's it is quite hard unless you take a big fall, or you kill it yourself. Other can kill it but it requires that they try to hit you but miss, and then hit the horse in "rest" mode. In "rest" mode the bad guys will ignore the horse so just make sure that you are not close to it.
Shadowmere cant die.
And you can use the spell wich heals allys to heal your horse if you like to.
You dont need to feed your horse.
I havent seen any possibility to see your steeds health.
You can see his/her's heath if you hit it yourself, just be sure to hit him/her with your bare fists.
Your horse CAN die, And you have to be cautious. Here's a list of ways they can die:
So to prevent any of this happening. Keep an eye Out for your buddy. Also, when you build a house, build a stable to store your horse(s). So there, a way to keep your horse safe, hope this helped!🐴🐎

Will there be a list of known issues posted with Beta 2 as well?
Also, I had posted an issue with tree having a horizontal scollbar no matter the content and I saw someone else posting the the same issue. Evant was unable to reproduce the issue (as was I on my linux server, but can't escape it in my Windows server though 4.0.7 was ok). Do you know if that made it on to the issues list at all?-->
21 Jan 2012 9:55 AM #3
Thanks for the communication Sencha. That is very helpful.
As mentioned by a previous poster - it would be great if the beta 2 was published with a list of outstanding/unresolved issues.-->
21 Jan 2012 6:49 PM #4

Energy Efficient Shades, Blinds & Window Treatments
- Be kind to your pocketbook, lower bills
- Reduce energy needs
- Thermal picks maintain inside temps
- Absorb outside heat & cold
- Block UV rays, protect furnishings
Add energy efficiency to your home by choosing the right window coverings. An insulating window shade will quickly pay for itself by lowering your heating and cooling bills. Cellular shades are the best insulator with year-round efficiency, and shutters are also a great choice. Roman shades and custom drapery with thermal lining also provide good insulation. Remember that shades must be closed to provide insulation, so choose a fabric opacity that fits your lighting needs. Solar screen shades provide view-through and summertime efficiency but should be paired with another treatment for nighttime privacy and winter insulation.
