Breakthrough in Hero battery life issue
A resourceful user over at community.sprint.com has discovered the cause of, and solution to, a major juice suck evident in HTC's Hero. Apparently, sending an SMS sends a signal to the dialer, then a bunch of complicated stuff happens, and your phone never goes to sleep. Thanks a lot, messaging app.
To see how this is affecting your battery usage, go to:
Menu < Settings < About Phone < Status < Awake Time
For more detail, download a free app from the Market called Spare Parts and go to:
Spare Parts < Battery History < Partial Wake Usage < Since Last Unplugged
Is your dialer out of control? Mine too! Time to download ChompSMS or Handcent SMS.
It will take me a day or two to determine the practical difference resulting from a switch to ChompSMS, but I do text quite a bit. So… I'm hoping for substantial improvement.
Big thanks to @erickarlpeters, @the_real_Newman, and everyone else who sent this to me.

SY600: Theory and Practice, 0.5 credits
Dr. Peter Eglin, Tuesdays, 2:30-5:20 pm
This course is designed to review some of the major directions and debates in classical and contemporary social thought, while also aiming to develop an understanding of the ways in which theory and methods interact. The ways in which epistemological, ontological, political, ethical, and logical issues are imbricated with all research will be explored. Students will be given the opportunity to develop and defend a critical and self-reflexive theoretical position to inform their major research paper. The particular theoretical debates covered in this course will vary from year to year and will be informed by student research interests and by the particular elective topics covered in any given year.
SY601: Advanced Qualitative Research, 0.5 credits
Dr. Tim Gawley, Mondays, 11:30 - 2:20 pm
The methodological issues and strategies associated with a wide variety of qualitative sociological methods such as institutional ethnography, autoethnography, ethnomethodology, interviewing, participatory action research, historical sociological research, and critical discourse analysis, are explored. Students will be given the opportunity to develop and defend the particular methodological positions and strategies that they will employ in their major research paper.
SY603: Research and Professionalization Seminar, 0.5 credits
Dr. Juanne Clarke, Tuesdays, 11:30 - 2:20 pm
This course will provide students with the opportunity to work on a proposal for their Major Research Paper with a focus, in particular, on the development of a literature review for their research project.

A discussion of classic and contemporary sociological perspectives on religion and social change will be the focus of the first half of the course. The latter half of the course will consist of a discussion of key case studies that focus on institutional relationships (such as Church and State) and/or popular processes(such as religion and politics) in particular countries.
SY614: Social Inequality, Migration and Diversity, 0.5 credits
Dr. Lucy Luccisano, Tuesdays, 11:30-2:20 pm

SY621: Social Constructions of Health, Illness and Medicine, 0.5 credits
Dr. Jeffrey Aguinaldo, Thursdays, 1:30 - 4:20 pm
This course will examine the social construction of health, illness, medical science and practice emphasizing critical social constructionist and critical discourse analytic strategies for understanding related texts including media.

SY625: Gender and Families, 0.5 credits
Dr. Linda Quirke, Fridays, 10:30-1:20 pm
The focus in this course will be on the ways in which moral regulation, social constructions, and state policies set boundaries within which gender relations in families are played out.

text: 000 FXUS63 KAPX 230348 AFDAPX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Gaylord MI 1148 PM EDT Sat Oct 22 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 953 PM EDT Sat Oct 22 2016 A warm front to our west has resulted in the development of low to mid level clouds across the region. We have even been able to squeeze out spotty sprinkles in eastern upper down through areas along/north of M-32. Made these adjustments to the forecast and also increased clouds into the overnight, but much of the thicker cloud should be exiting by daybreak. We then wait for a cold front to sink south later Sunday, bringing a chance for showers and lower cloud. && .SHORT TERM...(Tonight and Sunday) Issued at 300 PM EDT Sat Oct 22 2016 Tonight and Sunday... Over lake instability wanes tonight as warm air advection continues, leading to partly cloudy conditions. Short wave evident over the northern Rockies this afternoon moves across northern sections of the forecast area Sunday afternoon. This weak and moisture starved system may lead to isolated to scattered rain showers Sunday afternoon (better coverage across northern zones). Lows tonight ranging from the lower 30s to the lower 40s. Highs Sunday under thickening and lowering clouds ranging from the upper 40s north to the upper 50s south. .LONG TERM...(Sunday night through Saturday) Issued at 300 PM EDT Sat Oct 22 2016 Sunday night through Tuesday... High impact weather potential: None Pattern synopsis and forecast: Rather amplified flow regime heading through the beginning stages of next week, with our area dominated by cool northwest flow between slow to depart Canadian Maritimes low pressure and upper level ridging equally as slowly building into the Plains/Canadian Prairies. Low amplitude wave embedded within this flow regime will be exiting stage right rather quickly Sunday evening, with just enough cold air in its wake to entice some lake response heading into Monday. Cool high pressure set to follow, building overhead Monday night and Tuesday. Primary forecast concerns: Cloud and temperature trends through the period. Addressing Sunday night and Monday light shower potential. Details: As mentioned, shortwave trough looks to exit quicky east of our area Sunday evening, with attendant scattered light shower activity doing the same. Attention then turns to one of lake processes overnight Sunday into Monday as post-system caa regime once again sends H8 temperatures to a few degrees below zero. Much like this past event, simply not a ton of moisture or synoptic forcing to be had, but also like this last event proved with early season lake processes, sure doesn`t take much to drum up at least some light shower activity. Really like the idea set forth by previous forecaster, keeping some low end shower threat right through Monday afternoon in favored northwest flow areas (this despite no guidance showing such activity). Also like the more pessimistic cloud idea, as combination of those weak lake contributions and diurnal processes should tend to keep conditions a bit cloudier Monday than most guidance would suggest. High pressure builds overhead Monday night and Tuesday which should, at least theoretically, put an end to any lake induced showers. Will keep it dry both periods under partly cloudy skies (although higher level clouds could be on the increase later Tuesday well ahead of next developing system). A seasonably cool period of weather, with highs both Monday and Tuesday generally in the 40s and lower 50s and overnight lows in the 30s and 40s. MSB Extended (Tuesday night through Saturday) issued at 300 PM EST SAT Oct 22 2016 Models now showing ridging over the rockies in the 500mb pattern building a bit in the extended...allowing the troughing over the great lakes and Ohio valley to deepen. This may allow easier access to colder air when a surface low develops over the central plains and deepens as it sets aim on Michigan. So my current quandary is...wondering if temps are too warm (which would call for all rain) but if lowered would bring some snow into play. Alas, I think it`s too early to make any bold changes...so will ride with what blended solutions provided. For sensible weather...most solutions are in agreement with precip chances overspreading the CWA on Wednesday...and sticking around through Thursday evening. A secondary low, albeit weaker, shoots through toward the end of the period...to reinforce unsettled weather, cooler air and possibly set up a better lake effect regime. So again...grids will show going from near climo to above for Friday and Saturday (MaxT`s low to mid 50s, MinT`s @40ish) but my gut tells me this is too warm. Berger && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Sunday night) Issued at 1145 PM EDT Sat Oct 22 2016 Low to mid level clouds will gradually depart east overnight with additional patchy high level clouds rolling on through. Skies may actually be mostly clear late tonight into Sunday morning. Then a cold front settles down into nrn lower Michigan Sunday afternoon, bringing a chance for some showers and MVFR CIGS into the evening. Light/calm winds tonight will return to out of the NW Sunday afternoon/evening. Speeds under 10kts. && .MARINE... Issued at 300 PM EDT Sat Oct 22 2016 Northwest winds will back into the west this evening then become fairly light and variable overnight. North northwest winds will then pick up some and become a little gusty Sunday night into Monday. It looks like it will be a close call on small craft advisories so will let later shifts decide on possible headlines. && .APX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MI...NONE. LH...NONE. LM...NONE. LS...NONE. && $$ UPDATE...Dickson SHORT TERM...Sullivan LONG TERM...MSB/KAB AVIATION...Dickson MARINE...Sullivan

DeBoer trying to keep his players fresh and ready for Game 1 on Friday
When they saw they were going to have to wait until Friday for Game 1 of their first-round playoff series against Florida, Devils coach Pete DeBoer and his assistants tried to figure out the best way to utilize this week without allowing the team to become stale from practicing every day.
So, they opted to have the players practice on Monday and hold them off the ice today for meetings and workouts in the gym.
"We want our guys fresh, ready and excited to play on Friday. That's the end goal," DeBoer said. "How do you get to that point? I don't know if there's a right answer, but we spent a lot of time in meetings this morning, let that sink in, having off-ice workouts and, hopefully, that will lead to some quality practices the next two days."
For now, the Devils are scheduled to practice in New Jersey on Wednesday and Thursday before flying to Florida and holding a morning skate there Friday before Game 1. (This organization has changed such plans at last moment in the past.)
Although DeBoer has never coached in the NHL playoffs before, he has a staff of assistants with experience as both coaches and players.
"You go to a feel," DeBoer said. "We've got a lot of experience in our coaching room with Larry Robinson and Adam Oates and Dave Barr as players. I'm not sure that you have to have coached in the NHL playoffs to get a feel for that. There's a group consensus that this is how we wanted to handle the week and, hopefully, it will lead to a fresh, healthy, ready group on Friday."

The Palm Treo 650 is a fully featured smartphone with its small size, backlit keyboard and improved camera making it a worthwhile purchase.
Released in February 2005, Palm's quad-band Treo 650 is a hybrid PDA/mobile-phone device that addresses many of the shortcomings of its hugely popular predecessor, the Treo 600.
Among other improvements, the Palm OS-based Treo 650 boasts a sharp, 320 x 320 colour screen that is easy to read in sunlight (unlike the 600's screen, with its resolution of 160 x 160). In addition, the 650 features a removable, rechargeable lithium-ion battery (the 600's battery, while long-lived for a PDA/phone hybrid, could not be swapped over).
The camera module has also been updated, although it still only supports 0.3 megapixel shots. Whereas the 600's camera was basically useless for indoor photography, had no zoom, and couldn't capture video; the 650 works better indoors, has a 2x digital zoom, and can capture brief video clips. The 650 also has a built-in MP3 player that can play tunes stored on a card in the 650's SD (Secure Digital) slot. As it ships with only 22MB of internal storage memory, an extra memory card is a must.
The Treo 650 includes Bluetooth wireless capability, so you can use it with a Bluetooth headset, for example. It also supports infrared connectivity, but not Wi-Fi. It runs the Palm OS 5.4 operating system and uses Intel's PXA270 312MHz XScale processor, a much more powerful processor than that of the 600.
Hoping to spur corporate adoption of its top-of-the-line PDA/phone hybrid, Palm outfitted the Treo 650's VersaMail client with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync capability. This allows you to sync the device with Microsoft's corporate calendar and email. The Treo 650 also supports POP3 and IMAP email.
The 650 looks very much like the 600, with its mid-size (4.4" x 2.3" x 0.9") chocolate-bar form factor and compact keyboard. Its QWERTY keyboard has larger, flatter keys that should make typing easier. The most visible difference is a slight change in the way control keys are laid out. Both a stylus and a very easy to use backlit keyboard are provided for input, but unlike other smartphones, the Treo doesn't support handwriting recognition with the stylus.
One small but differentiating feature of the Treo 650 is the small sliding button on the top of the device, which puts the phone in Silent Mode.
The Palm Treo 650 is well equipped with a high-resolution display, an improved keyboard and camera and a smooth running OS, but the lack of handwriting recognition and Wi-Fi support will disappoint some users

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Rep. Michael M. Honda
Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize May as World Hepatitis Awareness Month and May 19th as World Hepatitis Day.
I commend the House Energy and Commerce Committee and House Foreign Affairs Committee for their support for raising awareness of the risks and consequences of undiagnosed Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C infections and the need for governmental and public health actions. I also want to thank my good friends Rep. Ed Towns and Rep. Bill Cassidy for working with me on hepatitis issues and speaking out on World Hepatitis Day.
An estimated 5.3 million people living in the United States are infected with either Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C. Hepatitis viruses are highly contagious viruses that infect the liver, cause liver disease, liver cancer, and premature death. Hepatitis patients are found in every Congressional district in every state across the U.S. Tragically, more than half are unaware of their status. Hepatitis is often called a silent crisis, but we cannot afford to be silent any more, and we will not be silent any more.
I introduced H.R. 3974, the Viral Hepatitis and Liver Cancer Control and Prevention Act of 2009 to unite the Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C community in a singular cause. H.R. 3974 will amend the Public Health Service Act to make critical improvements for education for patients and health care providers, access to immunization and screening, and surveillance and referral to care programs. The Act will also put in place a coordinated federal response to fight viral hepatitis. Through this legislation, and with strategic investments in public health and prevention programs, the lives of tens of thousands of people across the nation will be improved.
I commend the Obama Administration and Assistant Secretary for Health at the Department of Health and Human Services Dr. Howard Koh for developing an intradepartmental viral hepatitis working group to improve the public health response to the disease, and for working with outside partners to increase access to quality health care and reduce the health effects from viral hepatitis.
I urge all of my colleagues to support the goals and ideals of World Hepatitis Awareness Month and to support H.R 3974. Through comprehensive education, research, and coordination, we can highlight the global nature of chronic viral hepatitis epidemics, work to improve the quality of life for those diagnosed, and prevent further spread of the disease.

Based on the aggregated intelligence of 170,000-plus investors participating in Motley Fool CAPS, the Fool's free investing community, athletic footwear maker K-Swiss (Nasdaq: KSWS ) has received a distressing two-star ranking.
With that in mind, let's take a closer look at K-Swiss' business and see what CAPS investors are saying about the stock right now.
K-Swiss facts
|Headquarters (Founded)
|Westlake Village, Calif. (1966)
|Market Cap
|$448 million
|Trailing-12-Month Revenue
|$225.35 million
|CEO Steven Nichols (since 1987)
CFO George Powlick (since 1988)
|Return on Equity (Average Past 3 Years)
|Compound Annual Revenue Growth (Over Past 3 Years)
|1-Year Return
|Nike (NYSE: NKE )
Sources: Capital IQ (a division of Standard & Poor's) and Motley Fool CAPS.
On CAPS, 11.5% of the 235 members who have rated K-Swiss believe the stock will underperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bears include All-Star Valyooo, who is ranked in the top 5% of our community, and bofors.
This past summer, Valyooo tapped K-Swiss as an unfashionable selection: "This and [Crocs (NYSE: CROX ) ] are two retail stocks I am shorting with no basis other than negative earnings and the fact that NOBODY LIKES THEM ANYMORE."
In addition to posting heavy losses of late, K-Swiss' top-line has declined at an ugly compounded rate of 21% over the past three years. When you compare that figure to behemoth rival Nike's (5%), as well as other footwear plays like Deckers Outdoor (Nasdaq: DECK ) (38%), Skechers (NYSE: SKX ) (10.4%), and even the aforementioned Crocs (6.2%), it's easy to see why Fools aren't so high on K-Swiss. CAPS member bofors is particularly bearish and earlier this month, listed ten good reasons to stay away from the stock.
Here are a few of them:
... (3) [K-Swiss'] revenues are down some 13% and future orders are down some 9% year over year for the last quarter.
(4) [K-Swiss'] lost some 50% more money year over year for the last quarter.
(5) [K-Swiss'] attempts to turn itself around with "K-Swiss Orange County" and the "Kenny Powers" TUBES™ campaign look pathetic and weak. ...
(7) [K-Swiss] has always been a small, weak, trendy brand and it was forced into the mainstream without a solid base.
In short, [K-Swiss] is a joke and has no expectation of making money for about year or perhaps longer. Before it has another profitable episode, it is highly likely that [K-Swiss] will drop below $10.
What do you think about K-Swiss, or any other stock for that matter? If you want to retire rich, you need to protect your portfolio from any undue risk. Staying away from dangerous stocks is crucial to securing your financial future, and on Motley Fool CAPS, thousands of investors are working every day to flag them. CAPS is 100% free, so get started!

GRAND HAVEN -- An Ottawa County judge ruled Wednesday that Park Township was within its rights to approve conditional rezoning for a proposed hot dog stand and that opponents didn't follow proper procedures in filing petitions to force a public referendum.
Circuit Judge Calvin Bosman rejected an effort by the Park Township Master Plan Advocacy Group to block the rezoning of the 2244 Third Ave. property for a proposed Smitty's Pronto Pups stand.
Bosman ruled the Township Board acted legally in February when it approved the rezoning request from Mark and Kimberly Smith, even though its zoning ordinance didn't specifically allow for conditional rezoning. The board voted 5-1 to rezone the property from residential to commercial resort services.
"The statute does not require that the township's ordinance specifically provide for conditional rezoning," Bosman wrote in his opinion.
In addition, he ruled petitioners did not follow state law in collecting about 1,700 signatures on petitions to put the rezoning before township voters on the Aug. 5 ballot.
The judge said petitioners failed to include on each page a statement of purpose and a warming that improperly signed petitions would be voided.
"We weren't trying to subvert the democratic election process," Township Attorney Dan Martin said. "We were trying to make sure the law was followed."
Mark Smith said he and his wife were pleased with the judge's decision, but he would not say when the hot dog stand would open.
Attorneys representing the group could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

Aamir Khan rejects Deepika Padukone's claims in Dhoom 3
Deepika Padukone was apparently very keen on bagging the coveted spot in the Dhoom franchisee and was looking forward to be paired opposite Aamir Khan in Dhoom 3.
If sources are to be believed, Aamir Khan is a little concerned about being paired with Deepika in Dhoom 3 as her last film with Aamir"s nephew Imran Break Ke Baad, bombed at the box office. According to perfectionist Aamir Khan, that memory would still be fresh in the mind of the theatregoers. The producers too agree with Aamir Khan on the issue.
Apart from Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif was also considered for the role. However, as Katrina is already doing Ek Tha Tiger opposite Salman Khan and another film opposite Shahrukh Khan, she has absolutely no time for any other film.
Who will fill the 'hot spot' in Dhoom 3? – The search is on!

Aviva Premiership: Newcastle Falcons take on Leicester Tigers on Sunday
Leicester will be aiming to extend their unbeaten Aviva Premiership run to six matches when they travel to Newcastle.
Last Updated: 02/03/14 11:49am
The visitors will be favourites to pick up maximum points at Kingston Park as they look to consolidate fourth position in the standings.
Falcons have been defeated in their last nine Aviva encounters and are closing in fast on their worst run in the competition, which was 11 straight defeats during 2011.
England centre Manu Tuilagi will begin his comeback from a chest injury that has sidelined him since September.
Tuilagi partners Dan Bowden in midfield, with Vereneki Goneva moving to the wing. The only changes up-front see starts for England hooker Tom Youngs and Argentina international flanker Pablo Matera.
"Manu has been unlucky with the injury and he's just had to be patient. But he has been training well, he's been able to do all his running and conditioning while the injury has healed and he's raring to go again," said boss Richard Cockerill.
Newcastle debut
Meanwhile, Rugby league recruit Lee Smith makes his Newcastle debut on the wing a fortnight after joining from Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, while half-backs Phil Godman and Mike Blair also start, together with centre Adam Powell.
Scotland hooker Scott Lawson, meanwhile, returns from Six Nations duty, and prop Kieran Brookes and flanker Andy Saull also feature.
"Week in, week out we have gradually been getting stronger and we could have and most probably should have beaten Quins down at their place a couple of weeks ago," said head coach Peter Russell.
"Leicester will be a big test for us and we will have to be on top form in order to get anything out of the game.
"It's important that we continue with the energy that we showed against Northampton in the second half. It's all about our attitude and preparations have been going well throughout the week and in the last three games we've probably played 60 minutes of good rugby in each," added the Kiwi coach.
Newcastle: 15 Tait, 14 Cato, 13 Tiesi, 12 Powell, 11 Smith, 10 Godman, 9 Blair, 1 Vickers, 2 Lawson, 3 Brookes, 4 MacLeod, 5 McKenzie, 6 Welch (c), 7 Saull, 8 Wilson.
Replacements: 16 McGuigan, 17 Strain, 18 Tomaszczyk, 19 Tomes, 20 York, 21 Fury, 22 Hodgson, 23 Barnes.
Leicester: 15 Tait, 14 Scully, 13 Tuilagi, 12 Bowden, 11 Goneva, 10 Williams, 9 Youngs, 1 Ayerza, 2 Youngs, 3 Mulipola, 4 Deacon, 5 Slater (c), 6 Gibson, 7 Matera, 8 Crane.
Replacements: 16 Briggs, 17 Stankovich, 18 Balmain, 19 De Chaves, 20 Waldrom, 21 Mele, 22 Flood, 23 Thompstone.

What is in this article?:
- Improving soil, diversification is crucial for better cotton
- Yield averages
- Profitable crop
- Contest participants beat averages
- Dryland costs still similar
Anderson County, Texas, farmer John McFarlane made better than two bales of cotton per acre, dryland, and with no rain from the end of May until September.
More About:
"More cotton on Fewer Acres," was the theme for a 1924 cotton yield contest.
Contest participants beat averages
McFarlane was not the only contest entrant to increase yields significantly. According to contest directors: "While the average yield of lint cotton in Texas for the last five years is around 130 pounds an acre or slightly more than one-fourth of a bale, the average yield for the eighty-six highest entrants in the 'More Cotton on Fewer Acres' contest is almost 400 pounds an acre for each five-acre contest tract, or more than three times the State average.
"Also, the high men in the cotton contest produced their cotton from 7 (cents) to 10 (cents) a pound instead of 20 (cents) to 25 (cents) as has been held to be the average."
Texas AgriLife Extension state cotton specialist Gaylon Morgan says the cotton contest may have had a long-term effect on Texas cotton production.
"The whole purpose of the high yield contest was to educate fellow producers about management practices that would improve yields," he says. "In many ways, the educational effort of the yield contest was successful. Our yields are higher, and we are growing cotton on 50 percent fewer acres than in the 1920s."
Morgan says farmers still listen to other successful farmers to pick up ideas. "Although less emphasis is on farmer-to-farmer education today, farmers still prefer to hear input from their farming colleagues than any other source. For example, at Extension meetings, the farmer panels are always the most popular portion of the program."
Morgan also praises McFarlane's documentation of production inputs, especially for labor costs.
"To think how much our crop production efficiency has increased over the past 90 years. We have replaced man and animal labor with tractors for tillage, harvesters, and weed management. This process has substantially increased efficiency (pounds of lint per acre) and pushed farmers to make their income by farming more acres.

KABUL, Afghanistan - I'm convinced the reason this deployment has been so successful is because the "Fourth Alabama," like the rest of the Alabama National Guard, is always ready to show others what it can do.
The leadership all the way down to the squad leader level has strived to improve, plan and prepare for what's next - whatever that may be.
As the days dwindle down and our replacements prepare to take over the mission, it is good to see that hasn't changed.
Oh, sure, it seems as though you can't wipe away the smiles on the faces of the Task Force Centurion Prime soldiers because they know they will be heading back to Alabama soon. But even with that, they are avoiding complacency and that is critical as Task Force Guam moves into the driver's seat.
One small example of this I recently witnessed was when our own Sgt. Kristina Arnold, a medic with HeadHunter (HHC) conducted Combat Lifesaver refresher training for members of our staff. Most of the staff are confined to offices these final days of the deployment and would seemingly have little use for CLS. But the desire to keep everyone's training current and the just-in-case attitude of our soldiers made the training happen.
It is a trait built in to the soldiers I have worked with in the Alabama National Guard for more than 26 years now. Unlike the active duty Army soldiers who get to live and breathe military training every day, Guard soldiers have their own careers that dominate their time each month.
One weekend a month is devoted to focused training and most of us have to voluntarily devote large amounts of time outside of drill weekends to stay on top of our military careers. It's part of serving our state and nation and we do it gladly.
We all benefit from that training when Guard soldiers respond in the aftermath of natural disasters or the recent Boston Marathon attacks.
That's why I remain convinced that National Guard soldiers are among the greatest people and patriots you will ever meet. That kind of commitment has a chance to shine during deployments like the 1st of the 167th Infantry is now concluding in Afghanistan.
But for those of us who have worked with Alabama National Guard soldiers for decades, we've always known it was there.

HOLLAND TOWNSHIP — When Rob and Christa Murphy left the Holland-Zeeland area for Africa in 2008 to found an orphanage and health center, they wanted to create a connection between the people of West Michigan and their mission work.
"We came up with the crazy idea of starting a thrift store to both fund the work and be a place where people could learn about the sub-Saharan orphans, their need, and how people (in West Michigan) can make a difference," said Christa Murphy.
Opened in 2009, Africa's Child Family Resale Store at 415 E. Lakewood Blvd. is a place where people can get bargains and help finance the Murphys' mission work at the 22-acre center they founded in Kaloma, Zambia.
Their facility includes a health center and orphanage with more than 100 children, mostly infants and many who were HIV-positive at birth.
The Murphys financed the opening of the store with the proceeds from the sale of their home in Holland.
"When people come in, they walk into an African motif with murals of the savanna and hippos and giraffes painted on the walls and leopard-print designs on the display cases," store manager Andy Sharp said.
It offers everything from clothes to jewelry, home furnishings to electronic products plus African art and sculptures. There also is a wall in the store devoted to telling the story of the Murphys and their Africa's Child Mission.
"We feel it's important that people who visit Africa's Child take away an understanding of the important work they are supporting," Sharp said.
Retired Saugatuck Schools librarian Donna Medendorp and her husband, Nick, have been volunteering at the store since day one, and just opened a used bookstore within Africa's Child.
"We love what the Murphys are doing, helping the people and the orphans, and we feel volunteering is our way of investing in the lives of others a continent away," said Donna Medendorp going through the boxes of donated books they get every week for display.
"Maybe if our work here saves one child who grows up to become a doctor or teacher and helps people there, we've helped create a legacy that will go on into the future," Nick Medendorp said.
The Murphys' Golden Rule
Christa Murphy, 35, is a Hope College graduate and family physician with a medical degree from Wayne State University School of Medicine. Africa's Child co-founder Rob Murphy, 40, a graduate of Indiana Wesleyan University, works as the Zambian field director helping with community development and education programs.
The two decided to open the mission to help babies and orphans with HIV after a trip there in 2005 where they tried to help a little boy named John, who died of AIDS.
"Our faith has pushed us to live a life to speak on behalf of those with no voice. In the Bible we are told to 'Speak up for those who have no voice' and 'Ensure justice for those who are dying,' (Proverbs 31:8-9)," Murphy said.
The Murphys live there with daughters Acacia, 10, Christianna, 7, Katriya, 4, Shamirah, 1, and adopted son Isaiah, 4, who is HIV-positive.
"Part of our advocacy is through an intensive education and empowerment program (for the people) that includes teaching better farming techniques, health and hygiene, child development, preventive medical care and nutrition," Murphy said.
Building wells for clean water
They also started a fundraising drive to build deep wells in the area to provide clean water for villages.
"Our dream is to see Africa's Child help pave the way in world missions by tangibly connecting communities in the U.S. to the work with orphans in sub-Saharan Africa," he said.
They hope in the future to create Africa's Child stores across the U.S. that will help finance the expansion of their project with the hope of building a world-class children's medical care facility there.
"The journey we are in is amazing. In less than two years, what started out as one family following their hearts' calling to serve ... orphans in Africa, now has many people involved in making a difference," said Murphy.
"We showed up with basically only our luggage and a dream and now have an outreach that is growing quickly. All because people's hearts have been moved to help these amazing children," she said.
"If only more people dared to follow the dreams God placed in their heart, what kind of world would we have?"
The store is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information on the store and the Africa's Child mission go to africaschild.info.

Oil prices steady
The price of oil climbed above $107 a barrel but eased from earlier highs Monday as fears of widening instability in Iraq, a key energy producer, were tempered by views that its oil exports would not be affected for now.
By mid-afternoon in Europe, the benchmark U.S. crude contract for July delivery was up 17 cents to $107.08 in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Earlier Monday, it reached $107.54. On Friday, it added 38 cents, gaining 4.1 percent on the week.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils, was up 11 cents to $112.57 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange in London.
The northern town of Tal Afar became the latest to fall to the militants, who have already captured a vast swath of territory including Iraq's second-largest city, Mosul. The militants vow to march on Baghdad.
The capture of Mosul, a crucial gateway for Iraq's crude, raised worries about whether the country can rebuild its energy infrastructure and boost production to meet global demand, but most of Iraq's oil exports appeared to be beyond the militants' reach.
"Oil production in the south of the country is still secure," said analysts at Commerzbank in Frankfurt in a note to clients, pointing out that around 90 percent of Iraq's oil exports of 2.5 million barrels a day were shipped from there.
"Nonetheless, the threat of civil war in OPEC's second-most-important producer country does justify a risk premium given that the anticipated growth in Iraqi oil production may fail to materialize on account of the unstable security situation and an unwillingness to invest," they added.

James Toney: 'Pacquiao's the best pound-for-pound fighter in todays game'
Geoffrey Ciani
(Interviewed by Jenna J & Geoffrey Ciani) - This weeks 113th edition of On the Ropes Boxing Radio featured an exclusive interview with former three-division champion James Lights Out Toney (72-6-3, 44 KOs) who is scheduled to make his return to the ring Thursday night against Damon Reed (45-14, 32 KOs) at the San Manuel Indian Casino in San Bernardino, California. Toney spoke about his upcoming fight and talked about his Hall of Fame career and other matters pertaining to the current boxing landscape. Here is what he had to say:
On how he feels about returning to the ring against Damon Reed on February 24:
Damon Reed, I think hes a good opponent. I hope he comes to fight. I hope he doesnt run. Ive heard some of the comments that he made and I hope he has more guts than what hes talking about running. So Im looking forward to it. Im excited and I cant wait for the fans to see the real heavyweight champion in action, period!
On whether he expects to experience any ring rust given the fact he has been out of the ring for fifteen months:
Maybe for the first round or so, but after that Ill be ready. Im brand new. Im ready to go!
Regarding his current goals in the heavyweight dividion:
The goal is to get all the heavyweight titles. I want the WBO, I want the WBC, I want all the belts in the division. Thats the most important thing right there. I want to fight the best opposition out there. I aint never been one to duck nobody unlike most of these clowns out there are doing. I want to fight the best. If you think youre better than me I want to fight. Lets make it happen. Chris Arreola, lets make it happen. Tomasz Adamek, lets make it happen. I would love to fight the Klitschko sisters but theyre scared and want to stay over in their country. I aint chasing them around no more. Ive been chasing them for seven years.
On whether he still considered himself to be an elite level fighter at age 42:
Oh my goodness! Im just getting started. Earlier in my career I was in my infant stage. Now Im beginning my adult stage and Im ready to fight now.
Regarding a potential fight against one of the Klitschko brothers:
Ive been trying to fight these guys for seven years. These guys have no desire to fight me because they know what time it is. When I saw them last year at the Arreola fight, they deliberately walked the other way. They walked the other way when they saw me because they know. They were so God damned sacred of me they thought I was going to jump them right there. Everybody thinks Im going to fight them on the spot. I aint going to throw a punch at all, period! I want to get paid in the ring. I want to knock their asses out in the ring. To anybody who thinks the Klitschko sisters are the best, these guys are garbage. They stay in their country. Garbage!
Regarding the upcoming fights for each of the Klitschko brothers:
I dont care who they fight. I dont care! Theyre probably fighting garbage cans. I aint never heard about them. I dont care about them. Im not going to chase them because everybody knows there is only one heavyweight champion and thats me. One thing thats going to be impossible is to insist were going to fight. Im going to worry about me. Im not going to worry about what theyre doing.
On whether he believes Wladimir ducked him when he decided to face Hasim Rahman at the time when Toney had a TKO3 win over Rahman:
Yeah, but everybody knows what it is. The guy slacked out. Hasim Rahman is supposed to be a tough guy. I beat him down. Hes pretty decent guy. What kind of fighter pulls shit like that? I fought whoever right here and was willing to go through hell. These guys pick fights like cowards. Theyre nothing. Theyre garbage.
His views on WBA heavyweight champion David Haye:
I call him David Gay. Hes gay. You know what Im saying? Hes gay. Its the same old stuff. He aint fighting nobody. I heard hes fighting Povetkin. Thats what I heard of last night. Hes fighting Povetkin, somebody who nobody ever heard of, somebody whos trained by the mouth of Teddy Atlas who cant explain nothing unless its superficial. Ill say it once again, theyre nothing. Theyre nothing. There is nothing there. If you want to fight me you got to come over here. Im chasing these dead ends. Im not chasing them. I refuse to chase these guys. Im going to fight with my title over here. Im not worried about them. Titles dont make James Toney. James Toney makes them. I won every belt there is so it doesnt matter. The heavyweight division is the worst of all time. The biggest fight in the division couldnt happen because they wont step up.
On whether he feels he needs to fight his way up the rankings to get a title shot with one of the champions:
You dont understand what Im saying. I dont care about that. I dont care about being ranked in the organizations. Im only trying to defend my title. Thats it. The only way its going to happen is if the fans go out there and call for it and you in the media go out there and talk about it. Then maybe it would have hope. Thats what its going to take. This is not the 60s or 70s where real fighters fight any more. This is all put on by newspaper people like yourselves.
On whether he ever considered hanging up the gloves given he has already had a Hall of Fame career and is now 42:
For what? Im not done yet. You know what Im saying? I said my goal was to fight for the heavyweight titles. I keep telling everybody, the belts dont define James Toney. James Toney defines belts. If the belts are held by David Haye and the Klitschkos and nobody knew who they were before they even got the belts, and still when they do have them they dont mean anything because they arent doing nothing with it.
His views on Tomasz Adameks transition into the heavyweight division and how it compares to his own transition:
I made a transition to fight a monster. He aint done nothing! If you look at everybody he fought, they matched him very carefully. Like I said, this is not old school boxing. This is new wave BS. You know we take the least risk for the most money and thats what hes doing right now. Whos he fighting now? Hes fighting, I read it, oh! Kevin McBride! Come on! Are you kidding me? Please! See what you got to do? These guys get no-hopers and they knock them out. Arreola is the same way. They do what they got to do to protect their fighters and make money off them.
On whether he believes he is more deserving of a shot at a Klitschko than Adamek:
I dont care about fighting Klitschkos! I keep telling you! Ive tried for seven years! Im done chasing these clowns! If I do get the chance to fight them I wont fight them over there. He has to come over here. Im not doing that. Im James Toney. With my name alone the ticket will sell. These guys dont impress me. They impress all of you guys. They dont impress me. Im not worried about the guys.
His views on Bernard Hopkins and why a fight between him and Hopkins never went done:
The reason why the fight never happened is because he backed out. You know Bernard, hes a good fighter. Hes not a great fighter. Hes not a Hall of Fame fighter. You know what Im saying? A fighter like him, hell run. These old school fighters never run in with their heads down and hit and hold. Thats all Bernard does. He was supposed to fight me in 04 and he decided to fight De La Hoya because I would have beaten him. Even if he had fought me at cruiserweight, he would have went from the ring straight to the morgue.
Regarding clarification on whether he really believes Bernard Hopkins is not a future Hall of Famer:
No, I dont think hes a Hall of Famer but he is going to be in the Hall of Fame. Hes not a great fighter. The way he fights, he fights scared. If you ever watched an old school fighter in the 60s and 70s, did you ever see one running in with his head down and hitting and holding besides a bum? Come on man! Im a fight historian. I watch fights. I see how old school fighters fight and Bernard Hopkins does not fight old school. He fights old scared.
His views on Hopkins first fight with Jean Pascal and whether he believes Hopkins will become the oldest fighter to win a title in the ring when he has a rematch with Pascal this May:
Well he should be. Pascals not a good fighter. So why not? I thought he won the first time. He made mistakes. He was an old guy. He got dropped and that saved Pascal.
On his expectations when he decided to make the jump to heavyweight to face Evander Holyfield:
I wanted another belt. That was one of my goals. I have more skills than anyone in boxing. Im like Joe Louis, Jersey Joe Walcott, thats my style. I have an old school style. I can dominate this game and its not too late. Im going to show you. Im not just going to tell you.
His views on his heavyweight title fight against John Ruiz which was later declared a no contest:
I made a flaw. I took the fight sooner than I should have because I was still in rehab for the muscle tear when I won the IBA heavyweight title one month prior. So I wanted to take the fight before he could get away instead of waiting and, boom! While I was in training I was taking medication and I tested positive for steroids.
His views on why he has had so many ups and downs since the Ruiz fight:
Basically I was just being myself. There was nobody around me. I dont blame anybody. I wasnt getting myself in great shape, but that was in the past and Im looking towards the future. I have no regrets over anything. Everybody who watched knows with Hasim Rahman I beat him. But still. Hey! It is what it is. It was a draw. Its in the past. Now Im looking forward to February 24.
His views on the downfall of his former opponent Roy Jones Junior:
Well like I said, I dont worry about anybody else. I just worry about James Toney.
His views on current Pound-for-Pound King Manny Pacquiao:
We trained in the same gym. Ive known him for fifteen years. He was a little dude and now Pacquiaos the best pound-for-pound fighter in todays game. He goes to work hard in training. Thats how he finds that. The kid works hard and he does what he needs to do to be on top.
On how he felt to finally get into the ring with Vassiliy Jirov considering all of the postponements and problems in the lead-up to finally putting that fight together.
It was unbelievable! So when we finally got in the ring I said, Yeah, now its time to beat that ass. Now I love it. You know what Im saying? When that bell rang in that first round, I came out and I knew it was just a matter of time before I would break him. I know I would break him. Every young fighter who got in the ring with me, if he doesnt have a lot of years, he aint never been the same after fighting me. Ive warned everybody.
On which performance(s) from his career he views as his best complete efforts:
Ill give you two of them: Iran Barkley and Evander Holyfield.
His views on comments made by Montell Griffin on a previous episode where he said watch the fights without the sound on and youll know who the real winner was regarding their two fights together:
Yeah he won the fights, and hes right! If you turn the sound off everybody will see I won the fights. You know what Im saying? I didnt care about any of that business. You see where he is now? You see where Im at. So I dont worry about it. Things happen for a certain reason. God must have had a reason and here we are. Im still doing my thing.
His views on Montell Giffins career and accomplishments:
What did he achieve? He could have done more than he did. I cant speak for anybody who I dont know that well. From what Ive seen when we fought, he was a decent boxer and as far as punching power he was a skinny dude.
On how he would ultimately like to be remembered by the fans:
I want to be known as one of the greatest fighters of all time, period! You know I fought any and everybody. I one of the toughest and most skilled, just look at my record. Ive fought the best in every division Ive been in. I never ducked anybody and Im still the only heavyweight champion of the world, period!
On whether he views Manny Pacquiao or Floyd Mayweather as the Pound-for-Pound King in boxing:
I cant tell you until they fight. Thats the only way. Some people go with Mayweather now. Ive known Manny for the last fifteen years. Id say its a tossup. All I can tell you is James Toney is the best fighter overall now, period! Nobody has more skills than me. Everybody wants to be like me, but they arent like mine.
On how often he plans to fight following his upcoming fight given his recent inactivity:
I would love to fight. If I could have I would have fought ten more times, but its not my fault. Everybody is ducking me and dodging me and refusing. Im only in it to give the fans the best fights. If they cant have that, then hey I give it a try. I want to fight at least seven or eight more times before I retire and hopefully most of them will be big fights.
On whether he regrets having a fight in MMA:
I dont regret nothing I did in life, period. It wasnt my day. Im going to do it again. Im not done with it. Ill be back in the cage probably in April or June. Thats not the last of it.
His official prediction against Damon Reed:
Im knocking him out.

Saw this last night in Nottingham. Superb show, great singing and acting. Production was also a hit for me. You have to put some imagination and interest in to make Opera Seria work on stage; it wasn't obtrusive, and flowed well. In addition, I wanted to add my appreciation of Douglas Boyd's superb conducting

PITTSGROVE TWP. – The third-seed Pitman High School boys basketball team crashed the party Monday night in the South Jersey Group I final.
After the final buzzer went off, the Pitman student section rushed the floor as the Panthers knocked off top-seeded Schalick, 58-51, to take home the title and advance to the state semifinals in Toms River Wednesday night against defending state champion Point Pleasant Beach.
"It's great," Panther guard Darnell Foreman said of the feeling of winning a title on the road. "Enemy territory, everybody's against you, you're not favored to win – but everyone in the Pitman locker room knew we were the better team and we proved it. Point blank."
The two teams went into the final quarter tied at 38 and neither was able to gain much separation from the other. But the Panthers were able to come up with the big plays when they needed it.
Matt Spicer tipped a pass near midcourt that Eric Stafford came up with. He then took it the length of the court, slicing through contact to the basket for a layup and four-point lead late for the Panthers.
"He tried to take a charge, I went around him and luckily I kept my balance and I made the layup," Stafford said of the big play.
The Panthers outscored the Cougars 8-3 to end the game starting with Stafford's layup. Most of the rest of the points down the stretch for the Panthers came from Foreman at the free throw line – he went 5-for-7 in the final minutes.
"He's their best player and he really hurt us tonight," said Cougars head coach Eric Cassidy.
Foreman finished with a game-high 26 points. He was able to control the Panther offense, finding either open teammates or open lanes to the rim whenever he wanted.
Pitman had to come from behind in the second half for the win – something they fell victim to a number of times in the second half of the regular season.
"We were able to learn from our losses and continue to get better and I think we're playing our best basketball at the end of the season," said Panthers head coach Kevin Crawford.
"It's their home court, they have all the momentum coming into the game," added Foreman. "We knew they were going to go on a run … (but) we took their punch and came right back at them."
The Cougars came out of the gate fast, going on a 13-0 run early in the opening quarter. They watched as the Panthers closed the gap by the end of the period, but started the second just as quickly – this time a 10-2 run.
But once again the Panthers had an answer. This time it was a 7-0 run aided by a technical foul called on the Cougars.
"Dave Collinsworth came in and got a technical foul called on them … changed the flow of the game and gave us a ton of momentum going into halftime," said Panther center Tim Delaney, who finished with 10 points, 13 rebounds and three blocks.
"Two things cost us tonight, mental breakdowns and 50/50 balls," said Cassidy. "We told the kids that things like that win championships and Pitman got them tonight."
The loss brought a disappointing end to the season of one of the best teams in Schalick history. But as for the Panthers, they have the Central Jersey Group I champions to worry about.
"I think we're coming together at the right time," said Crawford. "We're really excited to play Point Pleasant Beach … we're very excited to drive up to Toms River on Wednesday."

If you don't have something to replace it with, then fix it. People are still in need of medical care, so the problem won't go away by kicking the can down the road. Obamacare certainly needs work, but at least someone started something. It should have been done in smaller pieces.

What Obama has done is to make a bad situation worse. Doing "something" isn't the answer. They should have at least read the bill and debated it. Maybe, had they done their jobs in this regard changes could have been made making the law something that could have moved us forward as a nation regarding our healthcare issues. We will never know because of the reckless nature in which Congress passed this bill into law.

Since every person that makes $50,000 has $4000 in taxes going towards corporate subsidies, I say that we start by cutting corporate subsidies. After all, it is the corporations that decided that they could make more profits by cutting health benefits for their employees.
As a bonus, offer to reward the companies fairly that provide family health benefits.

Why is it the Federal Government's responsibility to manage everyone's healthcare? It should be a responsibility of the state, just like Romney Care in Massachusetts. That way you know a majority of your constituents want the program to begin with and running a state program is much more manageable.

Still, most of us true Americans are thrilled by the president and all he has accomplished.
Maybe you missed it, but our "world" won a majority in 2012. There are 65,915,796 Obama voters in "my world", JR. That's 5,000,000 more than are in your "world". And when we get all those immigrants registered it will be 10 or 15 million more.

Arkwright, Richard (1732–1792)
Early disadvantages of cottonBefore we can fully understand the revolutionary changes which were introduced by Arkwright, we need to take a short look at the history of cotton spinning and weaving. Although cotton has been known for thousands of years in the Middle East, it was not introduced into Europe on any great scale until the Middle Ages. It reached England when the craft of cotton spinning was brought over by immigrants from the Low Countries in the late 16th century. These early cotton spinners worked in their own homes and spun and wove the cotton entirely by hand. Unfortunately, a hand-spun cotton is irregular in thickness and rather weak, so that at this time, and for a century and a half afterwards, cloth could not be woven entirely from cotton. Instead a material called fustian was produced which used strong linen threads from the warp (the threads running lengthways through the material), while the weaker cotton was used only for the weft (the threads running across the width of the material). Since linen was more expensive than cotton, and in shorter supply, there was a great need to find some way of producing really strong cotton threads so that all-cotton cloth could be made which would be strong enough to wear well.
In 1733 John Kay invented the flying shuttle which made it possible for a weaver to produce a wider cloth, and to weave more quickly. With the improvement in weaving there came an increased demand for cotton thread, about 1767 James Hargreaves introduced the spinning jenny, a machine which made it possible for one person to spin 12, or even 24, threads at the same time. The spinning jenny was, however, operated by hand, and although it produced more cotton than the older spinning wheel, the quality was no better. The production of cotton thread which could be used for the warp of a material remained a problem, and Richard Arkwright was the man who solved it.
Arkwright's early life
Arkwright's first spinning machine was tested at the Free Grammar School in Preston in 1769, and proved highly successful. Soon afterwards he moved to Nottingham, where he built a small factory in which cotton was spun on his machines. In the factory the machinery was driven by horses, but in 1771 a larger mill was built at Cromford in Derbyshire, and here the machinery was driven by water wheels. In the next few years Arkwright, with the help of Jedediah Strutt and Samuel Need, built mills in Lincolnshire, Lancashire, and Scotland. His water-driven machines were known as water-frames.
The growth of factoriesArkwright's machines could be operated by unskilled labor, and in many mills children of nine years old or even less were employed. As a result of this, the old craftsmen who spun by hand found themselves unemployed, and Arkwright became very unpopular among them. In 1779 a mob sacked one of his mills at Chorley, but the progress of machine-made cotton was scarcely interrupted.
In 1775 Arkwright introduced another machine into the cotton industry, an improved carding engine. The carding engine was machine which combed out the tangle of fibers forming the raw cotton and laid them all parallel, so that they were ready for the twisting and stretching process which was carried out on the water-frame. With this improvement it became possible to mechanize the whole process of cotton thread production. In 1790 Arkwright introduced a steam-driven beam-engine made by James Watt into his Nottingham mills.
Richard Arkwright was knighted in 1786 and died six years later. He was buried at Cromford church, which he had built, not far from the site of his first water-powered mill.

MOBILE, Alabama -- There were tears outside Mobile County Circuit Judge Robert Smith's courtroom today after Keenan Christopher Olson, 24, was sentenced to four years in the 2011 death of his 70-year-old stepfather.
Olson was actually sentence to 17 years in prison, but that sentence was split, meaning he will serve four years before he is placed on formal probation for three years.
"The family [of the victim] is certainly not happy with it," said Mobile County Chief Assistant District Attorney Deborah Tillman, who helped prosecute Olson.
Tillman said despite the disappointment, the split sentence imposed by Smith could mean Olson will stay in prison longer than he would have, had he been given what's known as a "straight sentence."
If he had been sentenced to 17 years with no split, Olson could have been eligible for parole in as little as two or three years.
However, the sentence has some drawbacks.
"In four years he's out in the free world, and he'd have to commit another offense, and there'd be another victim [to end up in jail again]," Tillman said.
Prosecutors had asked Smith to sentence Olson to the maximum allowed for his conviction of manslaughter -- 20 years. However she and fellow Assistant District Attorney Keith Blackwood noted they, as prosecutors, do not hand down sentences. That is the job of the judge presiding over the trial.
"Smith heard all of the facts of the case, he sat through a week-long trial," Tillman said. "We felt like this just did not have to happen. It was senseless and tragic. There are a lot of choices that could've been made."
Olson's attorney, Dennis Knizley, did not immediately return calls for comment.
Olson was convicted of manslaughter in the fatal shooting of John D'Aversa on May 3 after a jury deliberated for three hours. He was originally facing one count of murder.
Prosecutors said Olson, armed with a gun, went with his mother to D'Aversa's home on Aug. 9, 2011, to get a TV set.
D'Aversa and Olson's other were going through a bitter divorce at the time.
By the end of the night, Olson had shot his stepfather four times: in the back of his head, the back of his neck, his chest and his shoulder. Olson said he first shot a bullet, which didn't hit D'Aversa, in warning the older man started reaching for his gun.
Updated at 7:20 p.m. with more information on the split sentence.

Hello Clippers Fans....Singleton is not doing the Summer league with Phoenix and on Nba.com Singleton isn't a Unrestricted free agent......He's still a Clipper or not ? If not is he a free agent ?? and if yes which teams will pick up air James ?Thanks a lot
Well he's definitely been let go by the Clippers. I suppose there is a tiny possibility that he could return to the Clippers at a lower cost, but I'm sure he probably wants to get a fresh start with another team, or even go back to Europe. We'll see- he'll end up some where. Same goes to Ewing too. I looked around but I don't see either of them on any Summer League roster right now.
Get him back! He has great potential as a defensive stopper for all-stars (Kobe, Lebron, T-Mac). Nobody else on the squad is a better match-up. Maybe Thorton in a couple years.
Singleton has probably signed a kind of unguaranteed contract that gets him in the Summer League, but he will have to earn a roster spot with the Suns. If its not guaranteed, that is risky for him. However, during summer league, teams will get a look at him and if the Suns do not step up to the plate, he could be wisked away by another team. If you assume we will bring in a free agent PG, and assuming Diaz or Jordan make the team, and with Korolev coming back, and Thorton added to the roster, there isn't any room for Singleton with the Clippers.
If, let's say, Tim Thomas goes down and we need help, I bet they'd sign him if he wasnt playing elsewhere.
id hate to see him go. wow he was good, a little work needs to be doen, ad some direcctions need to be pointed, but hes awsome and a great player.
I don't think he would return to the Clippers even at a lower cost...
He'll probably wanna start over with a new team. Or like Dave said, see how things are in Europe.

""When I made the film The Invention of Lying, they gave me a private jet for getting back and forth between New York and London. I thought, 'I will never use it' but I ended up using it every weekend. You turn up, right, and the airport is completely empty. I mean, there's just someone at the desk and then the pilot, who says, 'Are you ready to go?' and you say, 'Don't you want to see my passport?' and he goes, 'Oh yeah, I suppose I'd better.'" "
Business Aviation Caterers 2011
For the most dedicated business aviation caterers, there is no greater compliment than the smile that follows a bite of praline pecan French toast or maple duck breast with wild rice and blackberry juice. And among those who fly privately, there exists no shortage of folks who appreciate a fine meal, perfectly prepared and served.
The hundreds of kitchens that specialize in catering for private and corporate aviation produce many such meals. Here's a list of those caterers. So kick back, find the ones that cover your turf and get ready to enjoy. There's something for everyone.
Viewing this report requires Adobe Reader be installed on your device. If it's not currently installed, click here to download.
"Business Aviation Caterers–Bon Appetit at 41,000 Feet" [Buyers' Guide 2011] offers a wonderful reference list of caterers. What it does not specify is which caterers prepared the food in your photographs. I would like to know their names. Why? Because in the nine years I have been a business aviation flight attendant, I have encountered only three caterers who have provided me with a fighting chance of presenting food to my passengers in the beautiful manner portrayed in your photographs: Deluxe Catering in London; and Tastefully Yours in Atlanta; and one in Lugano, Switzerland, whose name I don't recall. If there is a fourth caterer [that's as good], I would love the chance to use them. Your article suggests a perfect galley where nothing is overcooked and fresh basil sways in the slight breeze of recycled air. The truth is, often times to reach this nirvana the flight attendant has to go to hell and back. The catering is delivered to the wrong airport. Or the chicken breast is an overcooked hockey puck. Or the caterer's packaging was so bad, the petit fours now have a lobster bisque glaze. Or the catering arrived an hour late. Or the lunch looks like muck because the only "FBO-certified" caterer (i.e. the one providing kickbacks) makes muck for food. I appreciate the caterers who make flight attendants look like culinary queens but they are few and far between.

Everett Clinic to open in Smokey Point
SMOKEY POINT — The Everett Clinic is set to open a new facility in Smokey Point on Thursday, Aug. 23. The ribbon-cutting ceremony is set for 9 a.m. that day, and an open house is scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 25, at 10 a.m. The facility is 60,000 square feet and is the largest location outside of the Everett Clinic's main campus.
Healthcare services provided at the new location include primary care, such as family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics and a walk-in clinic. The facility will also provide specialty care in neurology, allergy, behavioral health, heart and vascular, gastroenterology, orthopedics, podiatry, physical therapy, occupational medicine, gynecology and dermatology.
The building boasts advanced imaging such as MRI, CT, ultrasound, mammography and radiology. It also offers comprehensive lab services, sports medicine, optometry and retail optical services, as well as behavior health services, with counseling for children and adults.
The new medical center is located at 2901 174th St. NE, near the northwest intersection of I-5 and 172nd Street at the Smokey Point interchange, just north of the Costco shopping center.
Extended hours include the walk-in clinic, which is open until 8 p.m. seven days week — beginning Tuesday, Sept. 4 — and Saturday pediatric appointments, so parents can bring in their children without taking time off from work or school.
The Smokey Point building has been designed with a focus on patient flow, so providers can serve patients quickly and efficiently as they move through the stages of care. Providers will begin treating patients in the new building on Sept. 4, but appointments are being scheduled now. New and current patients can call 360-454-1900 to schedule a visit.

A systolic reading of less than 120 and a diastolic pressure of less than 80. If you're in this category, give yourself a congratulatory pat on the back—but don't rest on your laurels. Your lifetime risk of developing hypertension is still 90 percent. Continue to follow a healthy lifestyle to ensure that your blood pressure remains normal.
Systolic blood pressure of 120 to 139 or diastolic pressure of 80 to 89. This is a new category, introduced in May 2003 in the seventh report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure. Think of it as a warning sign that you need to get your act together before it's too late. If you fall into this category, you are at increased risk of progressing to full-blown hypertension. So yes, you should be afraid. Those in the 130/80 to 139/89 mmHg range are twice as likely to develop hypertension as those with lower readings.
Systolic blood pressure of 140 to 159 mmHg or diastolic pressure of 90 to 99 mmHg. In this stage, you may require medication, although aggressive lifestyle changes (in diet and fitness) may help you avoid having to take prescription drugs.
A systolic reading of 160 mmHg or higher or a diastolic reading of 100 mmHg or higher. In this stage, you can expect to be placed on medication, as well as be counseled to make significant lifestyle adjustments.
Naturally, there are other considerations when contemplating your blood pressure readings. Here are but a few:
With the plethora of easy-to-use home blood pressure monitors on the market, people with high blood pressure should consider having one under their bathroom sink and should use it frequently to monitor their pressure. A good time to check your blood pressure is about an hour after you wake up. Although blood pressure is typically highest in the morning, one major study published in the journal Circulation, March 2003, found that those with highest morning "surge" (the difference between the systolic pressure's lowest value at night and the highest one during the two hours after getting out of bed) were most likely to have a stroke.
Researchers identified a "high" morning surge as at least a 55-point difference, finding that those with such a high surge were three times as likely to have a stroke as those with lower surges. For you, this means that if you have systolic values in the morning that are much higher than what you measure at other times in the day, give your doctor a call. Your blood pressure medication may need to be adjusted for better control.

The town's great tourist draw is Kronborg Castle, principally because of its literary associations as Elsinore Castle, the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet. There's no evidence Shakespeare ever visited Helsingør, and the tenth-century character Amleth on whom his hero was based long predates the castle. Nevertheless, the Hamlet souvenir business continues to thrive here. The present castle dates from the sixteenth century when it jutted into the sound as a formidable warning to passing ships not to consider dodging the toll, and it remains a grand affair, enhanced immeasurably by its setting; the interior, particularly the royal chapel, is spectacularly ornate. Beneath the castle are the casemates, gloomy cavernous rooms that served as soldiers' quarters during times of war.
