How to find all occurrences of any form of mitzvah in Psalm 119?
Posted 04 January 2012 - 05:20 PM
[RANGE psalm 119] <AND> *
This listed all of the words, including 22 occurrences of hÎwVxIm (hwx) commandment
When I did a search for all of the uses of in Psalm 119, (using the search hwx+) it said there were only 21 occurrences. As I did a little research I discovered it was not finding Psalm 119:115. The reason appears to be that there is no suffix attached in that verse. But I can not find any way to do the search and get just the 22 times it occurs (I do not want the verbal forms, etc.) How do I do this?
In Christ,
Sorry, I do not know how to get Hebrew in the forum obviously. The garbled words above are forms of mitsvah/mitsvot.

I am a little confused about what your attempting to do. Some screen shots would be really helpful, so that I can best address your question. First off, are you searching based on the ESVS or the BHS (Hebrew)?
As for posting Hebrew into the forums, you can do so by either typing it in directly via OS X Language and Text, or you can copy the Hebrew in Accordance, and export it as unicode. To do this, open Accordance activate preferences ⌘,. In Greek & Hebrew, ensure that the option to export as Unicode is selected.

For my original search, I do the following:
[RANGE Psalm 119] <AND> *
This ives me a concordance count of every word in Psalm 119, so I can see which words are being used the most. This returns a lot of data, but the important part is:
(ירה) תּוֹרָה law = 25
(דבר) דָּבָר word, speech = 24
(לא) לֹא not, Lo = 23
(שׁפט) מִשְׁפָּט judgment, Mishpat = 23
(עוד) עֵדוּת testimony, law, decree = 23
(צוה) מִצְוָה commandment = 22
(חקק) חֹק statute = 21
(פקד) פִּקּוּדִים precepts = 21
שׁמר to keep, watch, preserve = 21
(אמר) אִמְרָה word = 19
(צוה) מִצְוָה commandment = 22
When I right click on the word and do a lemma search to find the verses where this word occurs, Accordance generates the search
This yields the result of 21 hits in 21 verses - 1 less than Accordance gave in the first search. To see what was missing, I did a search on the ESV for command*, which yielded 22 verses. By comparing the hits, I discovered that the search
did not find the occurrence of the word in Psalm 119:115, which reads:
סוּרוּ־מִמֶּנִּי מְרֵעִים וְאֶצְּרָה מִצְוֹת אֱלֹהָי׃
Notice that occurs. Now I know it does not have a suffix in this occurrence, but if I do the search without the [SUFFIX] command (which was generated by Accordance) I still do not get 21 hits. The search
gives 24 hits. The reason is that it adds verbs, which are not included in the original count. For example, it includes Psalm 119:4, which reads:
אַתָּה צִוִּיתָה פִקֻּדֶיךָ לִשְׁמֹר מְאֹד׃
Notice that it found the word, but in the verb form, which was not included in the original concordance count.
In the end, I would like to know how to do two things:
1. How do I do a search that gives me the same 22 occurrences for the lemma צוה that I get when I do the search [RANGE Psalm 119] <AND> * - no more and no less.
2. Again, the real thing I was searching for was the 8 synonyms used for the word of God in Psalm 119. Thus, I do not want verb form of this root (or the others). I only want the nouns. In other words, I do not want Psalm 119:4, where God "lays down precepts/commands", but I want every occurrence that speaks of all of God's "commands". How do I do this?
I hope this helps you understand what I am getting at.
Thanks for any help.
In Christ,

I see. Thanks for providing the additional information.
By way of review, it's good to always keep in mind the semantics of the search symbols. For example, when you place the "=" before a hebrew word (or any other language), you are asking Accordance to consider the exact form of the word. While you qualify the search by deleting [SUFFIX], you are still searching for the exact form of מצוה. To the point, the occurrence of this word is in the plural construct form—not singular.
Similarly, the "+" indicates to Accordance to search for roots—which could include denominatives, adjectives, etc., whose unaffected meaning is related to a core idea (this is a unique search feature in Accordance). Thus, when you include a + with a lemma, as you've done, you are going to get verbs within your results.
To learn more about the search symbols, copy this path, open a Finder window, and enter ⌘⇧G, and paste the path in and hit return. (file:///Applications/Accordance.app/Contents/Resources/Accordance%20Help/Default.htm)
Thus, to answer you question for 1, you only need to replace the * with the lemma צוה. It would look like this: [Range Ps 119] <AND> צוה.
I've answered your second question above, that is, remove the + from your search.
Hope that helps.

I couldn't reproduce your issues. Can I ask what version of Accordance you are using, and what version of which text please? *Check the contactual menu item - about the text...
I found the results of the concordance search reproducible by tagging the root with the @[NOUN} command. This restricts the result of the lemma to all nouns...so rejecting your verbal results.
You can also string all the forms together and enclose them in brackets, then tag it all with an @[NOUN} command which will consolidate all 8 forms into one screen. It occurs 137 times! I have included my saved workspace which you can download and double-click to see if it's what you were looking for.
James' explanation was spot on, but i thought you might find this helpful too.
Since that image didn't seem to work
[NOUN]@(hrma ,rbd ,fpvm ,twdo ,hwx ,qj ,dqp ,hrwt) <AND> [RANGE Psalm 119]
Let's try this!
So - the words in the brackets should all be Hebrew text - still working out this posting stuff myself.

Thanks for the help. I do understand the basic differences in the searches, but the problem is, I am still not getting the right results.
James, when I do the search [Range Ps 119] <AND> צוה+ it returns two hits - verse 4 and verse 138
If I do the search [Range Ps 119] <AND> צוה+ it returns 24 hits - including the verb in verse 4.
If I do the search [Range Ps 119] <AND> צוה= it returns 2 hits, verse 4 and verse 38.
Thus, none of the searches returns the result of 22 hits, which I know is correct (both from the concordance count within Accordance, and from multiple commentaries that give that number.)
Simmo42, I am using Accordance 9.5.2, with BHS version 4.14. I try to download the latest updates whenever they are available. (By the way, I could not get your saved workspace. Safari does not recognize that url.....)
After playing around some more, it appears that this search works:
[NOUN] @צוה+ This returns exactly 22 hits - which is correct.
So now, I guess the question is, why can't I seem to get Accordance to generate this from the right click menu. This is the most common sort of search one would want, I would think, and it is what Accordance itself tells me is the number of hits in Psalm 119 when it does a complete concordance listing. In other words, when I tell Accordance to do the search [RANGE Psalm 119] <AND> * it returns (out of a long list)
(צוה) מִצְוָה commandment = 22
צוה to command = 2
In other words, it automatically separates the noun from the verb occurrences of the same root. It breaks them down as two lemmas. So when I do a lemma search on one of the noun occurrences (say the one in verse 6), I would expect it to return 22 occurrences - but it returns only 21. This does not make sense to me. I now see that I can get the result by creating a manual search [NOUN] @צוה+ which returns exactly 22 hits - which is correct. But why do I have to manually create a search? Why is this not what is found by one of the right click searches? (By the way, when I do the lemma search in BibleWorks, it returns the 22 hits - not 21 or 24.) Is there something I am missing here in the way Accordance is handling this?
Anything that can help me understand this a bit better is greatly appreciated.
In Christ,
Bret Hicks

My guess is that the misunderstanding stems from three aspects:
1) When right-clicking on a word and doing Search For -> Lemma, it will search for the lemmas of everything selected. If you just right-click on a word without a selection, Accordance automatically gets the closest word (between spaced) which will include a suffix. Thats why the [SUFFIX] tag was being generated by Accordance. If you just select the word you desire, it will only grab that lemma instead of adding a suffix. Of course, you can always just delete the suffix tag if you didn't want it.
2) As James said, its important to remember the distinctions between +, =, and "". Since you kept trying a root search, you were not actually searching for lemmas. This is why you got other forms of the root word, even though they were entirely different lemmas. This is why my 'plain' search seems to get the correct answers.
3) I don't know all the details behind this, but often the lemma shown in Strong's texts is a bit different from the actual lemma used in the BHS-W4. A lot of this stems from the different groups that tagged each text; each has a different philosophy. Often they are similar, but sometimes they differ. For example, in the 'precepts' search, the ESVS reports the lemma to be פִּקּוּד, פִּקֻּד, while the BHS-W4 has the lemma as פִּקּוּדִים.
I hope this helps clarify a bit.

Perhaps it's best if we can screen share.
The issue revolves around how you are using the search symbols, and your confusing the nominal form of צוה, which is מצוה, with the verbal form. If you want the 22 occurrences of the nominal form (מצוה), search for the noun, not the verb.
If you would like to screen share, I will message you my contact name. For the forum purposes, I did want to post an answer so that others can benefit from the thread.

That is the problem. I was simply right-clicking on the word, so it automatically added the [SUFFIX] condition. When I highlighted the word (not including the suffix in the highlight) it correctly found the 22 occurrences.
I did understand the difference between the various types of searches (lemma, root, etc.) and also the nominal versus verbal forms. I was simply trying them all to see the various hits Accordance gave me. I could not figure out why it was "automatically" appending the [SUFFIX] parameter. But now I understand what was really happening. I was simply right-clicking on the word, think it would not include the suffix in the search. I guess this did not seem intuitive to me. I would think that the default would be to not care about the suffix if I am searching for a lemma. It would seem to me that most of the time people would want to know all occurrences of the lemma, whether suffixed or not (which is what the concordance count gives), or the exact inflected form of the word. So I was expecting that the right click menu was going with those options, not "lemma with suffix" and "inflected form including exact suffix". I now see that it does the same thing with prefixed prepositions as well. I will just have to remember to highlight the word minus any prefix or suffix.
Thanks to everyone for the help.

|[TowerTalk] KLM Yagi Models
|email@example.com (Pat Barthelow)
|Wed, 2 Apr 1997 07:26:09 -0800 (PST)
Anyone know how to model the Linearly Loaded KLM 40M 3 el Yagi? If you want a challenge for a real world project, we at N6IJ, were donated Jack Troster's dual yagi, a KLM 40, 3 element, interlaced with a KLM 5 element, 20 meter Yagi. Jack says the antenna has performed beautifully for him for many years. This antenna has not been analyzed for optimum relative placement of the 2 Yagis on Jack's new, longer 56 foot boom, nor for optimum spacing between elements of each Yagi. It will be a while before we can put up this one at N6IJ, so would be interested in modellers doing both tasks. I have factory manuals for both Yagis and will send any needed factory dimensions to interested parties. We are looking for Maximum front to back ratio, more than maximum forward gain, as our difficulties at N6IJ are mostly front end overload from U.S. stations when working Pacific DX stations. Both are fed using 200 ohm KLM baluns. We currently use the surplus Army MARS Log Periodic, a Hy-Gain LP 1017, which is a big antenna, goes down to 40 meters, but has only about 10 db F/B.

February 2009
Hermida makes no excuses
The last laugh ultimately went to Jeremy Hermida when he laced a home run to right field in the fourth inning on Saturday against the Orioles.
"The best way to make them quiet," Hermida noted.
Before that, the crowd was getting on the 25-year-old for failing to haul in two first-inning fly balls that dropped for two-out doubles. Switching from right field to left is an adjustment, especially playing at game speed.
The windy, sunny conditions did play a part in him not getting good reads on either long fly ball, which helped the Orioles score twice in the first inning.
"That's still no still no execuse. I should have caught those balls. We'll do some work on it, on balls hit over my head," Hermida said.
Nick Markakis and Melvin Mora each lofted long fly balls that swirled in the wind and Hermida awkwardly went after them. Even though both were ruled hits, fans heckled Hermida, especially in the second inning, giving him the obligatory big cheer for making a couple of routine plays.
Hermida played along with the crowd.
"We're having fun. It's a Spring Training game," he said. "We're allowed to have fun and have a good time out there. Just having a good time, and I appreciate their enthusiasm for the game."

Upcoming pitching rotation
The Marlins will be starting Anibal Sanchez on Sunday agaisnt the Cardinals, not Andrew Miller as initially noted. Miller will pitch in relief of Sanchez.
The Cardinals are going with Joel Pineiro.
Even though the team is off on Monday from Grapefruit League play, a six-inning intrasquad game will be played on field two in Jupiter. Chris Volstad and Sean West will each pitch.
West returns to the mound after he was scratched from Friday's start with the Orioles due to a sore left hip.
In Tuesday's scrimmage with the Italian World Baseball Classic team, Frankie De La Cruz will start.
On Wednesday, against the Dominican Republic Classic team, Josh Johnson will start, and Ricky Nolasco will enter in relief.
— Joe Frisaro
Saturday lineup
Saturday will be the last day that the lineup will resemble what the Marlins may put out there on Opening Day. That's because players in the World Baseball Classic are leaving on Sunday.
Hanley Ramirez, Alfredo Amezaga and Jorge Cantu are position players set to go to the Classic.
On Saturday, the Marlins went with this batting order against the Orioles at Fort Lauderdale Stadium: Cameron Maybin, Alfredo Amezaga, Hanley Ramirez, Jorge Cantu, Dan Uggla, Jeremy Hermida, Cody Ross, Wes Helms and Brett Hayes.
— Joe Frisaro
Stadium vote pushed back
A memo was sent out on Friday by city of Miami Mayor Manny Diaz stating that city commissioners are pushing their stadium vote day back to March 6. Initially, the city was to vote on March 4.
The new date means the city commissioners will vote three days before the vote is expected to go to Miami-Dade County commissioners on March 9.
For approval of the Marlins' 37,000-seat retractable-roof ballpark at the Orange Bowl in Miami, five remaining documents must pass separate votes by the city and county commissioners.
— Joe Frisaro
Coming to terms
In all on Friday, 20 players reached agreement on contracts for the 2009 season.
It's pretty much a formality, since all of the are under club control. The league minimum salary is $400,000 for those who make the team.
Those coming to terms are: RHP Rick VandenHurk, OF Jai Miller, RHP Leo Nunez, OF Brett Carroll, INF Emilio Bonifacio, INF Gaby Sanchez, C Brett Hayes, C Mike Rabelo, C John Baker, RHP Jesus Delgado, RHP Harvey Garcia, LHP Zach Kroenke, RHP Chris Leroux, RHP Dallas Trahern, RHP Tim Wood, RHP Eulogio De La Cruz, RHP Chris Volstad, RHP Burke Badenhop, RHP Carlos Martinez and LHP Dan Meyer.

Friday in focus
Some observations and items from Friday:
* Dan Uggla was given Friday off.
* Third base/outfield coach Bo Porter went back to Texas for personal reasons. He left late in the game on Thursday, and he is expected to rejoin the team on Saturday.
* Chances of Jose Ceda being on the Opening Day roster are pretty slim becasue he won't get enough work by April 6. Ceda had some discomfort in his right shoulder, and he is tossing off flat ground at 90 feet. After he progresses to 120 feet, he will start throwing off the mound, possibly as late as next week. He isn't close to throwing in game situations.
* Renyel Pinto, who had a stomach virus a few days ago, is expected to pitch in Grapefruit League play this weekend.
* Matt Lindstrom on Thursday against the Mets was clocked throwing in the upper 90s.
— Joe Frisaro
Amezaga in lineup
If all goes well the next two days, Alfredo Amezaga will be playing for Mexico in the World Baseball Classic.
Amezaga tweaked his right knee when his cleat caught during an at-bat in an intrasquad scrimmage on Tuesday. He received treatment on Wednesday and Thursday, and Friday he was back on the field doing drills.
He also was in the lineup for the first. Manager Fredi Gonzalez plans on playing him about five innings at second base. He was in the lineup hitting ninth against the Orioles on Friday, and he is expected to play on Saturday against the Orioles in Fort Lauderdale.
"It feels good. Obviously, not 100 percent," Amezaga said. "Everybody is not 100 percent right now. My knee is fine."
Amezaga is planning on heading to Tucson, Ariz., on Sunday to begin practicing with Mexico for the Classic.
— Joe Frisaro
Grapefruit bites for Thursday
Observations from Port St. Lucie:
* Speed is plentiful in the batting order on Thursday against the Mets. Emilio Bonifacio is leading off against the Mets, followed by Cameron Maybin and Hanley Ramirez. Maybin is projected to hit first and Ramirez third.
I asked Mets broadcaster Ron Darling, a former pitcher, what speed at the first three spots does. He compared it to the 1986 St. Louis Cardinals, who at times had a speed combination of Vince Coleman, Ozzie Smith and Willie McGee atop their order.
"That scares you," Darling said.
* Wes Helms is starting at first base and batting cleanup.
* Want another Spring Sleeper? Don't discount Logan Morrison's chances of making the team and playing first base. It would be a huge jump from Class A to the big leagues, but he can hit, and his defense is getting better.
* Early in spring, the home team decides whether to use the designated hitter in NL parks. The Mets wanted to because they wanted lefty starter Oliver Perez to work on his bunting. Perez actually was slotted to hit second, and the scenario worked out for New York. Leadoff batter Luis Castillo singled, stole second, and Perez dropped a sacrifice bunt, moving the runner to third.
* Robert Andino isn't expected to play much second base, but he started there on Thursday because Alfredo Amezaga has a sore right knee. Andino made a great backhanded play up the middle to rob Jose Reyes of a hit in the third inning.
* Sean West's sore left hip is why he was scratched from starting on Friday. The team doesn't want West to risk anything while covering a bag. The ailment doesn't bother him when he's pitching.
* Ricky Nolasco will start on Saturday against the Orioles in Fort Lauderdale. Josh Johnson also will pitch that day in relief, keeping both frontrunners to take the ball on Opening Day working the same day.
* Renyel Pinto threw a bullpen session Thursday at Roger Dean Stadium. The lefty missed a few days with a stomach virus.
— Joe Frisaro
Amezaga tweaks right knee
All-purpose Alfredo Amezaga is resting a sore right knee, which is why he isn't playing in the Marlins first two Grapefruit League games.
Amezaga felt some discomfort while batting on Tuesday in an intrasquad scrimmage. If the knee doesn't show improvement in the next day or two, it could impact whether he plays for Mexico in the World Baseball Classic.
Manager Fredi Gonzalez said the team is closely watching, and the ailment may be enough to keep him from the Classic. Amezaga is the frontrunner to play center field for Mexico.
Some encouraging news on Thursday was Amezaga did some light jogging.
— Joe Frisaro
Defensive lapses 'unacceptable'
On the bright side, the Marlins scored more runs than they made errors.
That point was made half-jokingly by Marlins president of baseball operations Larry Beinfest to manager Fredi Gonzalez minutes after a 5-5 tie with the Cardinals on Wednesday. In the 10-inning game, Florida had four errors.
"More runs than errors," Beinfest said to Gonzalez, while he was about to address the media. "Take it as a positive."
Improving defensively is a major objective for the Marlins this season. A year ago, the team finished third in the Major Leagues in errors committed. The goal is to improve, but right from the first batter, an error was made when first baseman Gaby Sanchez dropped Anibal Sanchez's throw, allowing Skip Schumaker to reach safely. The error led to an unearned run.
Shortstop Hanley Ramirez, second baseman Dan Uggla and catcher Brett Hayes each committed errors.
"It's unacceptable," Beinfest said. "I don't care if it's the first day or the last day. It's unacceptable. We need to play better defense, right from the start. Set the tone.
"We've talked about it a lot. This team is going to take pride in its defense. Yes, it is the first day, but we're capable of playing better defense. It's not the way you want to start. We want to set the tone right away."

The study at the intersection of Oakland Ave was conducted by the City of Milwaukee. During the time frame of this study the amount of accidents went down.
This was not what Alderman Murphy wanted to hear nor a few people in the DPW.
Personally i believe from working with the two companies that you mentions above they are very respective of where they put digital signs. They work very hard to make sure that they are always working correctly so that they are never to bright.
What I hope happens is that The City of Milwaukee starts embracing new high tech ideas and business other wise all of us will be out of jobs. This city has got to stop hampering business development and Alderman like Mike Murphy need to crawl back to there lefty little hole and leave the rest of Milwaukee alone. It time that we embrace business in Milwaukee.
I know that since I have been using digital advertising my sales and awareness has gone up and thus has helped me grow which will help the community grow as well

also from day-to-day. That's why Massage Envy offers a variety
massage types to choose from. With variations in pressure,
technique, areas of focus and desired outcome, every visit is a
chance to find your new favorite massage.
A trigger point is a tight area within muscle tissue that causes pain in other parts of the body. Trigger Point Therapy is specifically designed to alleviate the source of the pain through cycles of isolated pressure and release.
Our most popular therapeutic massage type, the light to medium pressure helps relieve stress, reduce pain, boost mood and promote relaxation.
Deep Tissue is similar to Swedish massage, but the technique focuses on the deepest layer of muscles to target knots and release chronic muscle tension.
For athletes of every kind, each therapeutic massage is specific to your sport of choice, with focus on a particular troublesome area like a knee or shoulder.
Reflexology applies pressure to areas in the hands and feet called "reflex zones", which relieves stress, addresses conditions of the feet and ankle and promotes overall relaxation.
Gentle techniques addressing the bones of the head, spinal column and sacrum that offers effective relief for headaches, TMJD, back and neck pain.
An ideal therapeutic choice for prenatal care, each massage differs based on your individual needs and requests.
Geriatric massage relieves anxiety and depression while helping maintain and improve overall health in elderly clients.
Hot stone massage therapy melts away tension, eases muscle stiffness and increases circulation and metabolism. Each 1 ½ -hour session promotes deeper muscle relaxation through the placement of smooth, water-heated stones at key points on the body.

Urxvtset 0.5Forum member stu90 has created a great little GUI utility to configure the appearance of urxvt (rxvt-unicode), the terminal emulator (window) used in most of our puppies these days.
Here is the forum thread:
I have repackaged it slightly and uploaded the PET to ibiblio.org, the 'common' repo.
I changed the 'urxvtset' executable location to /usr/sbin, modified /root/.Xdefaults, some changes in /usr/share/applications/urxvtset.desktop and pet.specs.
urxvtset-0.5|urxvtset|0.5||Desktop|44K||urxvtset-0.5.pet|+yad,+urxvt|UrxvtSet setup terminal emulator||||
A great little app, stu90 is doing a lot of work developing applets using yad.
Here it is (3KB):
I have entered this into the PKGS_SPECS_TABLE variable of all the builds in Woof.

No scrollbar
I have just realised that the scrollbar has disappeared after running Urxvtset.
I will have to fix that and repackage the PET.
Anyone know why?

Urxvtset scrollbar
Ok, I edited /root/.Xdefaults in the Urxvtset package to restore the scrollbar. I have re-uploaded the PET.

no yad on puppy 431
just a reminder:
yad is not running on puppy 431
yad: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.7' not found (required by yad)
A fix would be nice to have
My regards
Posted on 4 Aug 2011, 21:04 by BarryK
Re no yad
I am not supporting 431 anymore. I am treating Wary as the base (lowest-level) system.
However, if you look at stu90's forum posts for SimpleWALL and SimpleGTK, I think there is a yad PET.

'shadow' needed by 'screen'
Would you mind conducting an experiment -- in PPM, puppy-wary5 repo, you will find the 'shadow' package -- install that, then test screen.
Let me know if it works, but also let me know if 'shadow' does not not interfere with normal Puppy startup and shutdown -- try a reboot.
Posted on 5 Aug 2011, 8:57 by broomdodger
re: 'shadow' needed by 'screen'
Installed shadow, then "screen --help" worked.
At this point, all I know what to do with screen.
I installed screen because I wanted to learn to use it.
I was given an example, but have not explored.
Reboot worked ok.
Thank you.
Now, that is... when time permits, I will learn to use screen.
Posted on 5 Aug 2011, 9:19 by BarryK
Updated Screen PET
Thanks for the feedback, I have added +shadow dependency in pet.specs in the screen PET. Will upload to wary5 repo soon.
Posted on 5 Aug 2011, 16:15 by L18L
Re Re no yad
Sorry, I had forgotten 431 is recent no more.
So, I have compiled Yad and put the PET into the 'common' repo. I added 'yad' to the package choices for Wary, Spup, Dpup, etc. in Woof.
'common' repo is confusing as it is accessible from 431 and let yad be installed but not run.
The check "`which yad`" would not be sufficient in this case.
Maybe adding a dependency (which one is beyond my scope) can avoid some frustrations.
Best regards from a yad fan
Posted on 5 Aug 2011, 17:17 by BarryK
Not confusing
The PPM in 431 does not offer the 'common' repo, so there is no confusion.
PETs in the official repos should be accessed via the PPM, not by browsing ibiblio.org.
My posts in this blog with direct links to PETs are for developers/testers running Wary/Lucid/Dpup/etc, any fifth-generation puppy.

"This design is so cute! I changed the pink pictured to green and it really popped with the background of our photo. The postcard was thick and a nice quality. Great price!"
"The whole process of ordering save the dates was easy! This design worked perfectly for what we needed and arrived early! I can't wait to share it with all of our family and friends!"
"My postcards came out perfectly. The quality was great and they even shipped a few days before my estimated shipping date which always makes me love a purchase more! Seeing our save the date printed and personalized was the best feeling ever and everyone loved them. So worth it!"
"I saw this calendar Save the Date awhile back and was so excited to use it when I got engaged and I couldn't be happier with it. We ordered the postcard and the quality is great and so excited to send them to our family and friends. Sooo cute for the bride-to-be that wants something a little different. One tiny thing would be that the back lettering "wording" looks a lot bigger in the proof than in person. It seemed like it could be a few sizes up, but its nothing major. Also, totally unrelated, but would have loved if we could have had WPD mail the cards directly to our guests. I know another site does that and I would have totally taken advantage of that if it was an option."
"We went with a postcard save the date to save a little on postage and I loved how they came out. Colors were perfect. My only issue was that the address lines were very small and I had to really squeeze in some of the longer names, it's a little smaller than a regular postcard so that may be why. Other than that I am very happy and everyone has commented on how great they look."

Marco Borriello is relishing the prospect of testing himself in the Barclays Premier League.
The Italy international, who has seven caps to his name, has spent his entire career to date in his homeland, notching 71 Serie A goals in 253 appearances.
Having turned out for the likes of AC Milan, Juventus and AS Roma, from whom he joined the Hammers on loan, he is now looking forward to showcasing his talents on a different stage.
In an exclusive West Ham TV interview, he said: "I was given the opportunity to move in the summer and I was looking to come over to England and the Premier League, but I decided to stay at Roma at that time.
"However, when the opportunity arose to join West Ham in this transfer window, I was very happy to make the move.
"I can't wait to start playing in the Premier League - I know the fans are very passionate and I'm very excited by the challenge.
"I know it is a very tough league, but I am very much looking forward to testing myself here.
"Serie A and the Premier League are two different leagues. The Italian league is a bit more tactical, whereas the English league is maybe more physical.
"However, the ball is round in both countries, so if you are good player you can play in any league in the world."
The new No46 was born in Naples - the same city from which fellow Italian and new arrival Antonio Nocerino hails.
Borriello is looking forward to linking up with his countryman and he says the pair are well-versed on what to expect in east London.
Watch fellow Italian Antonio Nocerino's first West Ham TV interview here!
He continued: "I have joked with Antonio - we have two Italians, Neapolitans even, who have now met and are playing for a club in London.
"We both have loads of enthusiasm and are excited to start playing and hopefully bring West Ham up the table.
"Being Italian and following the English league, I know a lot about West Ham in terms of Gianfranco Zola having managed here and Paolo Di Canio being a great idol at the Club.
"I've read a lot about the history of the Club and know they have the nickname of the Irons. Both myself and Antonio are players who will wear the shirt with honour, with pride and with heart - we will give 100 percent whenever we play for the Club."

Ohne Titel (Griffelkunst 1988)
Sigmar Polke Untitled, 1988 - 98,5 x 69 cm / 38.5 x 27 inches screen print, edition 940 on Schoellershammer 250 grams/m². Edition Griffelkunst in Hamburg, signed recto.
German painter Sigmar Polke died at the age of 69. Polke was the practicioner of large-scale works whose interest in cartoon and mass media was once called Capitalist Realism in Germany, and whose intensely varied marks yielded a lifelong inventiveness with form and media. Conservation framed in UV Plexi and contemporary black frame
Good condition, small handling crimp visible on recto
Sigmar Polke
b. 1941, Oels, Silesia (now Olesnica, Poland) d. 2010
German painter. In 1963 Polke launched Capitalist Realism in response to Pop art, exhibiting the first works in this genre in Düsseldorf. Polke took as his motifs such ordinary food items as chocolate, sausages or biscuits, isolating them and apparently depriving them of their tactility in order to elevate them to the status of aesthetic signs.
Such Pop-related images, pictured in various combinations and in a number of techniques, became from this time standard elements of Polke's work. The scattered dots in more complex works form a virtually abstract pattern that makes the imagery almost invisible when viewed from near the surface. Graphic alterations help to increase this sense of unfamiliarity, blurring the boundary between the objective reproduction of reality and the subjective production of art.
A different process was used for the Fabric Pictures. In these Polke used printed fabrics, which in their triviality reveal the tastelessness of everyday life, as background patterns for gestures and motifs drawn from earlier art and especially from mainstream modernism. Irreconcilable images are brought together. He continued to appropriate images and techniques from other artists and found materials.
In other paintings Polke introduced another variation of his attack on conventional ideas about individuality and innate creativity by altering the lines of his own palm.
Polke's love of experiment, of abrupt stylistic changes and of contradiction, irony and mocking distance thus remained essential to his uncategorisable and innovative art.

COLUMBIANA, Alabama -- The Shelby County Commission tonight approved its new fiscal-year budget that includes a $1,200 cost-of-living adjustment for all full-time employees using general fund reserves.
The funding for the one-time wage increase comes from "the diligent cost saving measures taken by the various departments during this time of economic recession," according to the commission's budget resolution, which emphasizes "no expectation or certainty" of a similar payment in the future.
Shelby County Manager Alex Dudchock said the wage adjustment will total about $697,000 for county coffers. He pointed to funding coming from "cost savings, cost containment practices and such from the majority of the county's operating departments."
The budget also includes three part-time service appraiser positions for the Property Tax Commissioner's department. The positions will "assist in the training and development of the appraisal staff due to the expected openings from the retirement, relocation and resignation of existing personnel," according to the budget resolution.
Additionally, the budget gives Dudchock the authority to fill a license clerk position. It also contains funding for municipalities participating in the Safe Schools Initiative with Shelby County Board of Education.
The spending plan notes a 5 percent increase in health insurance premiums for workers, but the county qualifies for the "most preferred rating classification" to keep costs at the lowest available rate. Commissioners in the budget also work to maintain a 20 percent undesignated reserve fund balance for the general fund, as required by resolution.
Commissioners unanimously approved the new spending plan without any discussion. There was no public comment given at the meeting in their chambers in Columbiana.
Overall, the new spending plan takes into account total expenditures of $86.45 million, compared to the previous budget's adopted amount of $87.9 million. Total revenues in the new plan are $86.6 million, while the previous budget's adopted amount was $88 million.
The general fund operations section that accounts for most day-to-day functions in county government totals $54.1 million in expenditures, a slight decrease from previous plan's $54.7 million adopted total. The general fund's operation revenues total $52.7 million, compared to the previous adopted total of $51.8 million.
Dudchock told commissioners that revenues continue to grow for Shelby County's coffers, but the amounts have not returned to pre-recession levels. There is still about a $1.3 million difference in revenue levels compared to pre-recession times, when fiscal year 2008 general fund operational revenues totaled $54 million.
The spending plan continues to reflect "appropriate sustainability in mind and accountability" among department leaders, Dudchock said.
The general fund reserves are addressing roughly $600,000 in building and property maintenance expenses and $300,000 toward vehicle replacements in the Sheriff's Office, Dudchock said.
Shelby County Chief Financial Officer Butch Burbage earlier this month said the $300,000 allocation covers eight Dodge Chargers with vehicle accessories. A previous $800,000 allocation by the commission resulted in 16 Dodge Chargers, three Chevrolet Tahoes, one Ford F-150 truck and vehicle accessories for the agency.
The commission is continuing to keep in mind road
projects funded by the Alabama Transportation Infrastructure Rehabilitation and
Improvement Program, known as ATRIP, as well as major maintenance and equipment
replacement plans at the Talladega-Shelby Water Treatment Plant, Dudchock said.

New speed tables strike complaints in Hansville
HANSVILLE Having promised to deliver speed tables devices with a 6- to 8-foot ramp leading up to a 10-foot plateau to help calm traffic in Hansville, the Greater Hansville Area Road Safety Advisory Committee is now dealing with a major design flaw which has slowed traffic almost to a standstill.
Upset and frustrated residents have been contacting committee members and Kitsap County Public Works, complaining the tables are not what the groups promised they would be. Ideally, the devices would slow traffic to the 30 mph speed limit, and no less. These tables require motorists to slow to 20 mph in order to safely transverse them.
Public Works Traffic Engineer Jeff Shea said the problem delves from the asphalt.
One of the issues that has come up is we are building them out of asphalt, he said. There are not a lot of easy ways to do that... We have to meet exact angles for the approaches. We have gotten some complaints the approaches are different.
He said the speed tables were created out of asphalt primarily due to cost. Each table, including signage and road striping, costs $3,000, with a price tag of $30,000 for the entire project. If the tables were constructed out of concrete, or if the county were to purchase preformed plastic speed tables, the expense would rise by $2,000 per table. The plastic devices also can cause problems for snow plows and other county vehicles, he said.
Ten speed tables, scattered on Hansville Road, Twin Spits Road, Hood Canal Drive and Bridge View Drive, will complete the project, but crews are going back to correct the tables on Bridge View Drive and Hood Canal Drive, said RSAC co-chairwoman Kathy Bourassa. On Bridge View Drive, crews will extend the ramp up to the plateau from 6 feet to 8.5 feet, allowing motorists higher speeds when crossing the tables.
The county will continue to work on the design while installing a set of tables on Twin Spits Road this week, keeping the ramps longer and the table slightly shorter, she said.
The ones on Hood Canal Drive weve had severe complaints about, Bourassa said. With speed tables, you should be able to drive over them at the speed limit... Thats not what they are, thats not what the community had agreed to, or what the committee promised.
North Kitsap Fire & Rescue was involved in the planning process to ensure the traffic calming devices would work with their fire engines and ambulances. Bourassa said NKF&R Assistant Chief Dan Smith was planning to drive over the tables Thursday or Friday to test them for the fire trucks.
Because of the delicate instruments and sensitive equipment on the emergency response vehicles, Bourassa said crews will probably take the tables at a much slower speed regardless of the approach.
Were trying to keep the speed low between bumps, and there may have been some misunderstandings between the groups in the North End that thought they would be maintaining the speed limit over the tables, Shea said. He added the county is working to perfect the design, as these are the first tables constructed in Kitsap, so there is a learning curve worked into the process.
I know people are really, really irate, Bourassa said. I dont blame them, this is not what the committee promised.

Tom, you were working on getting Wallace on the ballot in all 50 states. Why was it so hard to get Wallace on the ballot?
Well, it was very hard to get Governor Wallace on the ballot, because, you know, we have a traditional two party system in the state and the Republican and Democratic parties have ballot position. But the various state laws on qualifying a new party are all different. Some require a certain amount of registered voters to sign petitions. Some required having a nominating convention with a certain number of people coming there. About three states had no way to get on the ballot. We had to go to court, went all the way to U.S. Supreme Court on a case from Ohio, and won that, and then I think Idaho, and I forget the other state, but it was three states with no way to get on. And we finally got on the ballot in all the states which, we spent a lot of our time, energy and effort, and so forth, and by that time, the Republicans with their Southern strategy got involved. And Strom Thurmond and so forth, and they were just about as racist as the Democrats in-- I mean, as, as Wallace, so they said "Why waste your vote, just vote, we're going to look out for you too." You know the people who had these same feelings. So that's why our vote went up and then went down towards the end. You know, "Why waste your vote," plus we spent our energy on ballot position, it kind of burned us out, so to speak.

99 questions/Solutions/22
From HaskellWiki
< 99 questions | Solutions(Difference between revisions)
(slightly modified the version with guards so that it will make backwards ranges too)
Revision as of 05:22, 20 November 2010
Create a list containing all integers within a given range.
range x y = [x..y]
range = enumFromTo
range x y = take (y-x+1) $ iterate (+1) x
range start stop | start > stop = reverse (range stop start) | start == stop = [stop] | start < stop = start:range (start+1) stop
Since there's already syntactic sugar for ranges, there's usually no reason to define a function like 'range' in Haskell. In fact, the syntactic sugar is implemented using the enumFromTo function, which is exactly what 'range' should be.

The Jamestown Ironmen cruised past the Janesville Jets, 5-2, on Saturday in North American Hockey League action at the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena.
After the Ironmen beat the Jets (7-10-3) in overtime following a brutally tough game on Friday night, the hometown team controlled Saturday's contest right from the opening faceoff. Jamestown (15-3-2) dominated the first two periods, outshooting Janesville, 27-9.
The Ironmen jumped out to a 2-0 lead during the first period with goals coming from Luc Gerdes and Victor Johansson. Jamestown piled up three goals in the second period while limiting the Jets to only three shots at the other end. Tyler Dunagan led Jamestown's second-period surge with a pair of goals while Ross Pavek netted one.

Sitting on such a big lead, the Ironmen let up a tad, allowing Janesville to tack on a pair of goals in the third period, but Ironmen head coach Dan Daikawa never felt that their lead was threatened.
"We started strong, were consistent through the second and played our game tonight," Daikawa said. "It's natural to sit back a bit when you're up by five goals late in a game, but we never lost control of this one."
Although Jamestown squeaked out the win on Friday night, it was apparent that the Ironmen were flustered by Janesville's physical play and thrown off their game plan. It was a different story during Saturday's game, as the Ironmen executed very well.
"We had a conversation after Friday's game and decided that we can't let any opportunities pass by us. There are plenty of scouts in the stands, and we need to show them what our team is capable of every chance we get." Daikawa said.
Daikawa's words must have struck a chord with his players as Jamestown completed their fifth weekend sweep of the season while extending their home win streak to nine in a row. The Ironmen's defense paved the way for goaltender Reid Mimmack, as he tallied 19 saves, improving his record to 12-2 on the season. Assists were credited to Michael Mazzotta, Pavek, Gerdes (2) and Evan Ritt.
The NAHL North Division-leading Jamestown Ironmen will hit the road next weekend for a pair of games against Port Huron (11-9-1). The Ironmen will return home Thanksgiving weekend to take on the Johnstown Tomahawks (8-6-6). Games are set for Nov. 23 at 7 p.m. and Nov. 24 at 5 p.m. at the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena.

Baked Scalloped Potatoes RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 2 2
After our two children became adults and left home, I continued to cook meals as usual. Soon we became tired of having to eat the same leftovers several days in a row, so I sat down and came up with this pared-down recipe, which quickly became one of our favorites. -Marilyn MacIntyre, Rome, New York
- 4-1/2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Dash pepper
- 2 medium baking potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced onion
- 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- In a saucepan, combine flour, milk, salt and pepper until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. In a greased 1-qt. baking dish, layer half of the potatoes, onion and white sauce. Repeat layers. Toss bread crumbs and butter; sprinkle over top. Cover and bake at 375° for 50-55 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Yield: 2 servings.

~11/19 Enjoy a Soda Today~
A unique food holiday is celebrated annually on November 19, it is National Carbonated Beverage With Caffeine Day.
Some people cannot have caffeine due to medical reasons, some choose to avoid caffeine for their own reasons and then there are the millions of people who like their caffeine very much. The same is true with the carbonation in beverages. Today's celebration combines the two of them together.
- In 1767, Englishman Joseph Priestly suspended a bowl of distilled water above a beer vat at a local brewery in Leeds, England which led to the discovery of a method of infusing water with carbon dioxide to make carbonated water. Priestly's invention of carbonated water is the major and the defining component of most soft drinks.
- Caffeine acts as a central nervous system stimulant, temporarily warding off drowsiness and restoring alertness. Ninety percent of adults in North America consume caffeine daily. Some people notice sleep disruption after drinking beverages containing caffeine while others see no disturbance at all.
Today, celebrate National Carbonated Beverage With Caffeine Day with YOUR favorite carbonated, caffeine beverage.
What is your favorite soda?
I rarely drink soda but when I do it's Mountain Dew Throwback.
We don't drink soda. But I do remember enjoying a Fresca or two back in the day.
None- I can't stand the carbonation. Those little bubbles annoy my tongue!

'We're setting history around here'
Trenton Robinson channeled the average MSU fan at halftime today and begged the MSU offense to start putting more points on the board.
The MSU offense came right out in the second half and drove for a touchdown to go ahead.
"It almost put tears in my eyes," Robinson said of the offense apparently responding to him. "It was the best feeling I've had since I've been here."
That drive was capped by a third-down pass from Kirk Cousins to Keshawn Martin. So was MSU's next touchdown drive, at the end of the quarter. Of all the big -- and wild, and wacky, and violent -- plays in this game, those two third-down conversions against the best red-zone defense in the Big Ten loom large. If those drives end in field goals, the end of the game is perhaps very different.
That's not to say this wasn't a commanding win. It was. MSU's defense allowed the first TD drive and then the 34-yard pass to Roy Roundtree for the touchdown -- and that was it. And it scored. U-M was 3 of 15 on third down and had 250 total yards. Denard Robinson had the fewest rushing yards (42) and worst passing accuracy (9 of 24) of his career as a starter. The Spartans had seven sacks and 10 tackles for loss against a team that had allowed one sack all year. MSU ran for 213 yards and went 7 of 14 on third down. This despite two full quarters of working from deep in its own end while also facing the wind.
Drops, fumbles, penalties helped keep Michigan in the game. Michigan's defense stepped up and got some stops. And Robinson squirted free and made some plays. But that Heisman campaign is pretty much over, just as it was a year ago when these teams met. The Spartans have an effective formula for him.
"We just wanted to contain him, and that's what we did," Trenton Robinson said of the other Robinson. "We're not gonna let one guy beat us."
So it's four straight, a stretch the MSU seniors won't ever want to forget and the U-M seniors won't ever want to discuss again. It's also a 2-0 start in the Gauntlet of Doom for MSU -- with a split needed in the next two weeks, in my mind, to make the Spartans the favorites in the Legends. I don't expect U-M to plummet as it did after this loss the past two seasons, this is a solid eight- and maybe even nine-win team. It's decent enough on defense and still explosive on offense. I think it's fair to go ahead and credit MSU's defense for how that offense struggled today.
And now we get to see if that defense can deal with Wisconsin.
Also tonight:
* Edwin Baker circa 2010 showed up. I'm thinking that week off really helped him. He would have had 200-plus yards and another touchdown, I think, but he fumbled it away on a play that could have gone 80. Only bad moment for him. And if we're mentioning Baker, we have to mention the offensive line. It has improved in each of the past two games. I don't know how things will go between the MSU defense and Wisconsin offense, but MSU's offense can score on Wisconsin if it can limit the mistakes.
* I didn't hate the Michigan fourth-and-1 call, play-action instead of just running it. It didn't work because MSU sent Johnny Adams on a blitz, but without that it might have been a big play.
* Cousins played a good game (though I imagine the mere 120 yards passing could serve as easy Kirkmudgeon fodder) and had more people praising him afterward.
"I think he does a phenomenal job," Dan Roushar said. "I thought he made some big-time throws today. He wins for us. He's our leader. … We feel very, very fortunate to have the quarterback we do."
* Brady Hoke and Mark Dantonio had the warmest post-game greeting between an MSU and U-M coach that I can recall. It's not fake. This rivalry won't lose any steam -- you won't let it -- but there's mutual respect going on right now.
"As far as Brady, Brady's a good man, I think he's a very good coach," Dantonio said. "They're a well-coached football team and they're just starting. So it takes time."
Said Hoke: "He outcoached us and outplayed us, and we have to do a much better job in a lot of different ways."
* Several players, including Will Gholston, went into the stands for a wild post-game celebration.
"I don't know, man," Gholston said when asked why he jumped up there. "They showed us so much love, I felt I had to jump in the stands and show them love, too."
* MSU's defensive aggression was the key to the win even though it went too far at times. The Marcus Rush hit that hurt Robinson was a definite late hit. I've seen some speculate (thanks, Twitter) that Will Gholston could face suspension for the jab he landed on Taylor Lewan. Lewan did have a grip on Gholston's facemask before that, but it was a bad move by Gholston. It will be interesting to see if the Big Ten takes action. Both sides after the game downplayed the personal foul talk. Jordan Kovacs said, "No, I do not," when asked if he thought MSU played dirty.
Pat Narduzzi said MSU was going for consistent "unnecessary roughness" in a manner of speaking, and he was asked if all the hard hits may have had a mental effect on U-M's quarterbacks.
"I think so. If I'm a quarterback I'm going, 'Wait a minute, what's coming at me,' especially after last week. … You know, we don't want to hurt anybody. I feel bad (Robinson) was laying on the ground. I didn't see it, I was looking downfield, I don't know if it was late, but we don't need those 15-yarders. And that's probably the most disappointing thing. We're a classy, disciplined football team and we haven't done that all year."
Said Dantonio on the penalties: "Some of them, I don't know, you guys can make that call. But I do think it was a cleanly played football game, a hard-played football game. There was toughness out there, on both sides. I respect Michigan in all respects. ... This is football. You have to play this game a little bit angry, regardless of who you're playing."
* One thing Dantonio talks about every year when this game arrives is the impact it has on fans and former players and coaches. He had much to say on that tonight.
"This game is about uniting our entire fan base," he said. "Our fans were tremendous out there, outstanding. Anybody who's ever put on a green shirt with a Spartan on it is gonna feel personal about this game. Now you take that and (take) a guy who has played on this football team at some point or another and gone through the trials and tribulations that go with playing football in general, there's a lot of emotion. And it links us up. It links myself with every coach that's ever coached here, it links our players with every single player who's ever played here. And that's strong. That's something that lasts a lifetime.
"So I can't tell you how many texts I get and things I get before a game from former players, and the guys who have been here since I've come back and the guys who were here before when I was here, they're special people to me in my life. The guys who have sweated since I've come back here as a head coach, this is very, very special to them because they are the program. They are the program. This is not just our current people, this is all the ones who have come before us, they are the program. I'm happy for coach Perles. Coach Perles comes to my house when we beat Michigan. So I'm very happy and I look forward to seeing him tonight. Happy for all former Spartans out there."
* More from the cutting room:
Worthy on MSU's confidence in winning: "We had no doubts in our minds. We just wanted to go out there and show our dominance and prove that Michigan is a good team but at the same time Michigan State is an even better team."
Worthy on the U-M uniform switcheroo (editorial comment: Can we get back to regular unis next year, fellas?): "They tried to match ours, but I still think ours is better. Maize and blue doesn't really go together in my book."
Nichol on the four-game streak: "We're setting history around here."
Nichol on U-M: "I don't think they can ever underestimate us again."
Trenton Robinson on the crowd's effect on U-M: "They didn't know what to do. Our fans were amazing today."
Gholston, explaining why he thanked Hoke after the game: "He has turned Michigan around, like he's turned every other program around, Ball State and San Diego State. And I just appreciate it. I like competition. And I know he's gonna have everybody ready for next year and the years to come."
* Amazing season, Detroit Tigers.

Sen. Zell Bryan Miller
Mr. President, I would like to take this opportunity to recognize the achievements of the Blue Ridge Rifles and Color Guard of North Georgia College and State University, who recently placed first overall at the 29th annual Tulane Naval ROTC Mardi Gras Invitational Drill Meet in New Orleans, LA.
The North Georgia College and State University is one of six 4-year military colleges in the United States. Since its inception in 1873, NGCSU's military college has been renowned for its ability to produce exceptional officers in all service branches. This skill has resulted in many performance championships, including 12 titles from the Mardi Gras Drill Meet.
The Mardi Gras Invitational Drill Meet draws teams representing the service academies, senior and junior military colleges, and reserve officer training corps programs at civilian colleges and universities. The Blue Ridge Rifles and the Color Guard of NGCSU have exhibited consistently excellent performances at the Mardi Gras Invitational. This tradition continued with the most recent Mardi Gras Invitation Drill Meet, held on February 23, 2001, where the NGCSU cadets competed against 42 military drill teams from colleges and universities throughout the United States. The Blue Ridge Rifles, under the command of Cadet Captain Phillip Pelphry and Cadet Master Sergeant Zachary Poole, received first place in platoon basic drill, second place in squad drill, and first place in platoon exhibition drill. The North Georgia College and State University Color Guard, under the command of Cadet Captain Chris Rivers, received first place in the color guard competition.
I would like to recognize the following cadets for their fine representation of North Georgia College and State University and of the entire state of Georgia.
The Blue Ridge Rifle Team: Joseph Byerly; Gregg Carey; Joshua Carvalho; Josh Clemmons; Byron Davison; John Filiatreau; Kurt Fricton; Jason Howard; Joseph Marty; Phillip Pelphry; Jason Pon; Zachary Poole; Jason Ryncarz; Jonathan Sellars; Benjamin Sisk; Jeffrey Wagner; Zachary Zeis; and The Color Guard Team: Colin Arms; Peter Bender; Kyle Harvey; Ernesto Johnson and Chris Rivers.

Penn State added a fourth wide receiver to the 2014 recruiting class Sunday night when former Rutgers commit Saeed Blacknall flipped from the Scarlet Knights to Penn State.
The talented 6-3, 210-pound Blacknall is a consensus four-star recruit by all the major national services, and confirmed his commitment to Penn State on his Twitter account.
I have officially committed to THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY #WeARE....— Saeed RaaShad (@RaaShad_TTG) January 27, 2014
A Rutgers commit since August of 2013, the native of Englishtown, NJ had plenty of enticing offers from the likes of Alabama, Florida State, Clemson, Ohio State and LSU.
But one week after making a surprise unofficial visit to Penn State, Blacknall flipped his commitment and gives the Nittany Lions a trio of four-star wide receivers in this recruiting class.
De'Andre Thompkins, who enrolled early, and Chris Godwin are the other four-star wide receivers in the 2014 class. And Troy Apke is a talented three-star wideout from Mt. Lebanon.
Blacknall is the seventh player Penn State coach James Franklin has landed since being hired on Jan. 11, and is the 23rd player in the 2014 recruiting class.
In Blacknall, Thompkins and Godwin Penn State has three of the top 35 wide receivers in the country.

Fleetwood Mac Is Going To Tour Again
That's the good news. The better news is that they want to play a lot of songs from Tusk!
Fleetwood Mac announced that they will be heading out on a huge world tour in 2013. This should come as no surprise to hard-core fans, though — Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham have been making noise about doing this for a while now. "It's the perfect time to go back out," Stevie Nicks told Rolling Stone. "2013 is going to be the year of Fleetwood Mac."
So that's the good news, but it actually gets better. Lindsey says that in addition to playing all their biggest hits, the band will try out some more obscure material. "When you've gone through all your must-dos, that's 75% of your potential set list. I think with the other 25%, there are areas of our catalog that are more under-explored," says Buckingham. "Maybe we'll play more songs from Tusk. I'd also like to see an extended middle portion of the show that's just me and Stevie. This is just me talking from the top of my head. For now, I have no particular vision of what this tour is going to be."
No. Stop right there, Lindsey. Tusk. Yes. You should play lots and lots of songs from Tusk.
Like, for starters, how about "Walk a Thin Line"?
Or how about "Not That Funny"?
No one would complain if they played "Angel."
This tour is going to start in April in the United States and may also include some new material written by Buckingham and Nicks. Christine McVie will not be a part of this tour, but that should come as no surprise, since she hasn't been a member of the band since the late '90s. The band still performs her biggest hits, though, but with Lindsey and Stevie singing her parts.
Here they are playing her song "Don't Stop" back in 2009:
