Williams' first win comes in Victory over Bethune-Cookman
The Stetson men's basketball team used an 18-point first half lead to hold on for a 56-52 win over Bethune-Cookman, earning head coach Corey Williams the first victory of his collegiate coaching career Tuesday evening at the Edmunds Center.
"As excited as I am about my first win, I'm more excited that [these players] got their first win," Williams said after the game. "We needed this as a team."
Earning their first victory of the season after eight road games and a home-opener against Davidson to start the year, the Hatters (1-9) didn't make it easy on themselves. Leading 41-23 at the break, Stetson allowed Bethune-Cookman (2-8) to cut the Hatter lead to just eight points, at 46-38, midway through the second period.
A 15-5 run to start the frame, which culminated with a tip-in by Travis Elliott, which made it 46-40 in favor of Stetson with 8:54 to play, was countered by a big three-pointer by Stetson senior Raymone Andrews.
Andrews, who had just come in off the bench after sitting the previous three minutes with four fouls, knocked down his third triple of the game to increase the Hatter lead back up to nine points. Another Elliott layup was followed up by perfectly executed back door play from senior Hunter Miller to Andrews to push the Stetson lead to nine again, this time at 51-42 with 7:14 to play.
"I was trying to keep him out as long as I could," Williams said of Andrews. "He had four fouls and I didn't want him to get his fifth. I know how important he is to our basketball team. Thankfully, he stayed the course. He played within himself, he made good decisions, and he kept himself out of harm's way."
Andrews couldn't stop the Wildcats from scoring on the other end though, as Bethune-Cookman scored eight straight points to cut the Stetson lead to just one point, at 51-50 with 2:22 to play.
Stetson was struggling offensively in the final moments; so on back-to-back possessions Williams called a timeout to set up a play. On both occasions the Hatters found senior Willie Green in the post and the forward came up big.
With just over a minute to play he forced a Wildcat foul and hit both of his free throws to make it 53-50. On the Hatters' next possession, he connected on a difficult post layup with a defender all over him to make it 55-52 with just 34 seconds on the clock.
A final Stetson defensive stop led to a rebound by redshirt-freshman Brian Pegg, and a subsequent free throw by Pegg put the game out of reach for the Wildcats. Stetson escaped with the 56-52 victory, the squad's first of the season.
"It wasn't great but it wasn't bad," Williams said of the team's defense in the second half. "We held them to 35 percent shooting in the second half and we did a fantastic job in the first half. That keeps you in the ball game."
The first half was great for the Hatters, who shot 51.7 percent from the floor and held Bethune-Cookman to just 28.6 shooting from the floor and 14.3 percent from beyond the arc. Stetson's 41-23 first half lead was the team's largest advantage of the season.
"Well we played a terrific first half of basketball, and then the second half…we didn't show up," said Williams. "We were very fortunate to win that basketball game. It's interesting that you could play so well the first half and then not come back out with that same energy and enthusiasm in the second half.
"We've yet to play forty minutes," Williams went on to say. "I know it's going to happen at some point, and I'm looking forward to it happening."
Green led Stetson in scoring for the fifth time this season, finishing the night with 18 on 7-of-10 from the field, five rebounds, two blocks and one steal. Andrews added 11 points on three from down town, five rebounds, and six assists.
Junior Kentwan Smith chipped in with 10 points, seven rebounds, two blocks, and one steal. Pegg led the Hatters with eight rebounds and added seven points.
Bethune-Cookman was led by Barry Smith who scored 10 points and recorded a game-high 12 rebounds for a double-double. Clemmye Owens and Tony Kynard chipped in with 12 and 11, respectively.
"I'm just so grateful that we were able to pull this one out," Williams concluded. "It shows the fortitude that we have because at the end we could have easily folded."


text: After all the hype of the wonderful Russian women ( and they are wonderful) it was exciting to find that Kaetyln won Nebelhorn today. With Canada's women's skating in the doldrums after Joannie retired we really need someone to pin our hopes on for the next couple of years and beyond. I hope that the pressure of expectations doesnt kill her talent as it has done a few others and she retains her ability. Congratulations to Kaetlyn!

Camp Shred Goes Off At The Cardiff Campgrounds
With over 3,000 surf stoked consumers cruising through the San Elijo State Campgrounds over the course of the weekend, the first ever "Camp Shred" was a huge success. For surfers, the event was like being a kid in a candy store as boards of all shapes and sizes were offered up for a test drive in the fun, two-to-three foot surf that was on tap all weekend. Along with myriad surfboards; wetsuits, trunks, fins, headphones, skateboards, soft tops, and even Subaru vehicles were offered up for consumers to take for a spin.
With the sun shining and the cold Pacificos flowing in the beer garden, one of North County's favorite bands, Yovee, jammed into the afternoon on Sunday and capped off what could only be described as epic weekend of fun in the sun. Everyone went home sunburned, surfed out, stoked, and smelling like a campfire. TransWorld SURF would like to thank Camp Shred sponsors Surf Ride, Pacifico, HoodieBuddie, California State Parks, FM 94.9, Subaru, Mizu, House of Marley, Keep A Breast, and all of the vendors that participated. A portion of the proceeds benefit our beloved California State Parks system. For more photos go to #campshred on instagram. Check out some product reviews from the TransWorld SURF edit staff below…
5'4" JS "Pier Pony"
Right off the bat I thought it'd tough to ride such a short board in the mushy little waves on offer Sunday. Boy was I wrong. The Pier Pony has a nice wide nose that allows you to paddle really good for such a short board. Once I was up and riding the thing had some squirt, too. It really projected through sections and made the gutless surf fun. If you don't want to Longboard on small days this is a great addition to your quiver.—Justin Coté
5'6" Firewire/Tomo Surfboards Collab
Every person I talked to who rode one of these odd looking boards from Tomo was raving—but I didn't feel the same stoke. My foot kept falling off the back of it, and I wasn't used to a board being so narrow. I think the small, mushy waves I surfed it in were the opposite conditions it was created for—it felt like it would go great at a hollow beachbreak where the narrow outline would fit into the curve of the wave. I gotta take this bad boy for a spin on a different day to get the Stu Kennedy vibe going.—JC
Channel Islands Weirdo Ripper 5'6" x 19" x 2 ¼"
With near flat waves and fog on the weekend forecast, I arrived to Camp Shred midday Saturday with the essentials for everything except for surf, i.e. a tent and beer. But lo-and-behold, contrary to what the Internet said, the weather was beautiful and the waves actually fun—a perfect weekend for the first annual hybrid tradeshow/demo on the sand. After a few Pacifico's I decided to partake in the shredding, and grabbed a nice new comfy 4/3 West Wetsuit and a 5'6" Channel Islands Weirdo Ripper designed by Yadin Nicol, and joined the masses in the chest high, glassy Cardiff campgrounds surf. There was certainly a hefty crowd of novice level surfers out there, but the vibes were high and the board perfect for the soft conditions. I'm convinced you rarely need an actual "shortboard" in North County, San Diego, and this board proved my point, turning an otherwise gutless day of groveling into something really fun.—Zander Morton
Camp Shred was the perfect medium for surfboard and wetsuit brands to get people in and on top of their gear, but another big hit over the weekend was the Solo Shot "automatic cameraman." Simply attach the Solo Shot to a tripod and camera, sync it up with the included waterproof wristband and it'll follow you around all day, filming every second of your surf. I watched the contraption, left to its own devices, document quite a few folks' sessions, and most every surfer was thrilled with the results.—ZM
JS Rock-N-Roll 5'6" x 19 1/2" 2 3/8" volume 26.4 L
Super fun board, nice and thick in the middle and paddled great, while the rails were full but trimmed down just enough to do some high performance type turns. The main thing that struck me was how incredibly squirty the thing was through flat sections, it was a trip. Felt like the perfect balance between generating tons of speed in small (1–3 foot), gutless surf, while also feeling like you could rip a nice solid turn on it, too.—Casey Koteen
Hayden Shapes Hypto Krypto 5'4" x 19 1/2" x 2 3/8"
I went up to the Hayden booth to try a board, and as luck would have it, Hayden himself was just walking up after a surf. He ended up graciously lending me his board to try, a 5'4" pintailed beauty. It's a thruster, with a wide nose, and a slightly pulled in tail. The thing paddled and caught waves really well. It shot off the bottom, and generated plenty of speed even in the ultra gutless 1–2 foot slop. I'd like to tell you it went off the top well, too, but there just wasn't any "top" to hit on the peak I was sitting at. I will say that a lot of small wave boards tend to top out in chest high or bigger surf, but this board felt like it was more versatile, and could handle plenty of juice, as well. Given some of the vids I've seen of Craig Anderson riding it in large, grinding surf, it seems well capable. It seems like a great multi-talented board, I'd definitely like to have some more time on it.—CK
Firewire Dominator FST 5'4" x 19 1/4" x 2 1/4" Volume: 25.7 L
I rode the Dominator as a three fin, although it can be ridden as a quad too. The surf was 2–3 foot, windswell peaks, and the Dominator made short work of it. I dug this board, it zipped through mushy flat sections as you'd expect, but also pivoted really well when a steeper section popped up. It felt skatey and fast, easy to put on rail and off the top like a shortboard. It's no wonder this thing is one of Firewire's best sellers.—CK
Hydro Flex …Lost Black Sheep 5'4" x 18.74 x 2.13"
The Black Sheep is a fast board, super light, good for small waves, and easy to stay in the pocket on. It's a hybrid of the …Lost Sub Scorcher and Rocket that features a wide swallowtail and nose and not a lot of rocker—the perfect blend to create a small wave shred machine.—Pedro Fernandez

Your age, sex, socio-economic situation, education, environment, level of development, and many other factors contribute to the ways in which you express your natal energies. Remember, the planets do not compel you to do or be anything. They influence you, but you still have the free will to determine your own life. The report was generated with the following birth data: Male, born on 18 November 1956 at 3:22 am in Los Angeles, California. Your sun sign is Scorpio. This is the sign in which the Sun is in your birth chart. Your Ascendant is in Libra, and your Moon is in Taurus.

Snake invasion
07 February 2013 , 11:36 AM by Rob Minshull
Along with unwanted water in our homes, comes another unwanted - and uninvited - guest: snakes.
Some snakes regularly visit suburban pools, others find a warm spot inside houses.
But has the recent wet weather made snake sightings more common? And if you've got a snake what do you do?
This weekend, Warren Boland is talking to one of Brisbane's best known snake relocators.

THE PLAZA REFERENDUM: Outraged that the KCMO City Council votes to OK the controversial Plaza office tower plan, opponents start a petition drive in hopes of nixing the project at the ballot box.

text: What better way to start a new thread than with a Giro preview! You can't top the Tour de France for big time excitement, but the Giro claims to be the most beautiful race, and it's hard to argue that title (even though Bennati isn't riding). Plus this is the Centennial version and comes with that much extra pageantry and fun. To start, here are some key stages identified: St 1 - Sat May 9 - team time trial in Venice. I love a team time trial and this one is set in Venice so it's hard to beat the scenery. St 5 - Wed May 13 - the Giro kicks off the start of its mountain stages in the first week just to give the sprinters some fun before they quit the race St 10 - Tues May 19 - this stage was supposed to go into France but was shortened to exclude the French alpine passes which are still likely to be covered with snow at this stage, but it's still an impressive 250 KM of climbing. St 12 - Thurs May 21 - a very long (61.5 KM) individual time trial which is likely Ivan Basso's biggest obstacle to getting his second win. This stage could be key in determining the leaders. St 16 - Mon May 25 - 237 KM of mountains St 17 - Wed May 27 - They cut the last 4 KM of the mountain finish off because of problems with roads and snow, but this is still a steep mountain stage, although significantly shorter than some other mountain stages (79KM) St 19 Fri May 29 - The last mountain stage runs 164 KM and is the last chance for someone to make a big difference in the standings St 21 Sun May 31 - The race ends with a short 15.3 KM individual time trial. It's much shorter than the other ITT so less likely to have a big impact, but if the top riders are close, the ITT could impact the standings more than the typical race ending ceremonial stage. Useful Links: There is currently no planned tv coverage in the US, but Cyclingfans will have all the links where it can be viewed online (ETA: see update below regarding Universal Sports online and cable broadcasts) Gazzetta Giro Home Page - for those who can read Italian or want to look at their photos Cyclingnews - for results, photos and a live ticker Velonews - for another live ticker and news Pez Cycling - for a slightly offbeat look at the race Steephill Dashboard - kind of a messy site, but full of useful links, stage profiles, articles, photos and pretty much anything you could want related to the Giro Startlists on Cyclingfever Twitter Links: lots of riders on twitter including race favorites Ivan Basso and Levi Leipheimer, as well as Lance, and assorted teams, announcers, DS's and news sites. This list includes links to cycling related teams and people on twitter. And you can always count on the Giro for emotional outbursts. The race hasn't even started yet, and already Italian National Champion (and Armstrong nemesis) Filippo Simeoni stormed into the Italian Federation office to return his National Champion jersey in an outrage because his team wasn't invited to the race. Race organizers snarked that if he rode for a better team, or if he had more impressive results this year, the team might have been invited. But then they also mentioned that Simeoni also passed up a chance to make nice with Armstrong during a race this season, which further outraged Simeoni. And this year there is the added fun of seeing whether Astana will have enough money to finish the race. Armstrong, Basso, DiLuca and Simoni head to the press conference Venetian style Edited to Add: Universal Sports just announced that they're planning to cover the Giro with online live coverage and slightly delayed tv coverage. Unviersal Sports Cycling Page Universal Sports home page Edited again: Livestrong Giro page - Lance is supposed to post videos each day Team Saxo Bank Home Page - they usually have good reports and photos in their gallery Team Columbia- High Road Garmin-Slipstream

If you haven't seen it yet, make sure you check out our post from earlier this week. It's a look at the dangerous, scary, and downright unusual items our officers found in 2012.
|Black Powder (CLE)
Black Powder At Cleveland – Over nine ounces of black powder was discovered in a carry-on bag at Cleveland (CLE).
|Garrote (BOS)
Garrote Discovered After BDO Referral – Behavior Detection Officers at Boston (BOS) referred a passenger for additional screening. During the screening, a serrated wire garrote was discovered in the passenger's carry-on bag.
Inert Ordnance and Grenades Etc. – We continue to find inert hand grenades and other weaponry on weekly basis. Please keep in mind that if an item looks like a realistic bomb, grenade, mine, etc., it is prohibited - real or not. When these items are found at a checkpoint or in checked baggage, they can cause significant delays. I know they are cool novelty items, but it is best not to take them on a plane. Read here and here on why inert items cause problems.
|Bandolier Line Charge (ORF)
A bandolier line charge was discovered after it alarmed in checked baggage at Norfolk (ORF). It was determined that the item was inert and used by a contractor who conducts demonstrations for the military. As I've said before, we're all too familiar with instructors and other people in this type of business needing these sorts of items for their jobs. As with all inert training items and replicas, we don't know they're not real until we've checked them out. This can include evacuated baggage areas and closed checkpoints which lead to delays and missed flights. People that need to travel with INERT items should plan ahead and contact their preferred shipper about mailing the training aids to their destination. Read here and here on why inert items cause problems at checkpoints.
Eight replica/inert grenades were discovered this week, one in a carry-on bag at Salt Lake City (SLC), and five others in checked baggage – three at Harrisburg (MDT), three at Anchorage (ANC), and one at San Diego (SAN). The three grenades at MDT caused a 1-hour, 8-minute evacuation of the checked baggage area.
- A knife was discovered in a laptop at Denver (DEN).
- A saw blade was discovered under the sole of a shoe in a carry-on bag at Ellis (OAJ).
What Not to Say at an Airport – Statements like these not only delay the people who said them but can also inconvenience many other passengers if the checkpoint or terminal has to be evacuated:
- A passenger at Miami (MIA) asked the gate agent: "What if I have a bomb?"
Firearms - Here are pictures of some of the firearms our Officers found in carry-on baggage since I posted last Friday. See a complete list below.
Unfortunately these sorts of occurrences are all too frequent which is why we talk about these finds. Sure, it's great to share the things that our officers are finding, but at the same time, each time we find a dangerous item, the throughput is slowed down and a passenger that likely had no ill intent ends up with a citation or in some cases is even arrested. This is a friendly reminder to please leave these items at home. Just because we find a prohibited item on an individual does not mean they had bad intentions, that's for the law enforcement officer to decide. In many cases, people simply forgot they had these items.
*In order to provide a timely weekly update, I compile my data from a preliminary report. The year-end numbers will vary slightly (increase) from what I report in the weekly updates. However, any monthly, midyear, or end-of-year numbers TSA provides on this blog or elsewhere will not be estimates.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
I have a HF hood, I also wear tinted safety glasses under the hood. Together they are probably equal to an 11 filter rating and can go darker.
Why do I use the Safety glasses? Well you should never trust just the hood, safety glasses help keep sparks and other things out of your eyes that a hood alone cant do. Second is they will help you not get flashed from behind the hood or if you don't get it down in time.
My eyes would get tired after about an hour, after I started wearing the tinted Safety glasses I could weld for hours and my eyes were fine.
This seems to be the HARDEST part to get people to understand...lol
They know their legal ways of doing so and you can;t touch them....
If you have a job related injury and need time off,especialy if its a bad injury...you'll need to file a claim with workmen's comp....and it takes weeks if not months to start getting the checks..especialy if the employer disputes the claim...
If they dispute it..about the ONLY way to win it,is if someone in the company is willing to lose their job and be your witness...good luck on that..and even that could easily beaten..those high paid lawyers know how to make a liar out of the most honest people in the world...
The companies best little trick is to call you once you are home from the hospital or just while off because you can;t work..and they say"hey buddy,we really like you and your work,so we'll help youi out and you just come to work in the office and we'll pay you your regular paycheck,you don;t even have to do anything!,just sit here and shoot the crap with me buddy ole pal!"....
Most fall for it..but the catch is..once you've worked a few days in the office,you have no leg to stand on because those paychecks proved you are capable of a job and working........
Once that's established..you get a pink slip with a seperation notice with a lil checkmark beside the "Reduction Of Force"..or worse yet..their lawyer will come up some reason YOU are at fault for the injury and not the company..and you'll get FIRED............
No company has to have ANY legal reason to have a reduction of force..in other words..a 1 man layoff..the only law they have to go by is..they can;t hire new workers for a few weeks..and then they hire whoever and how many they want.....
so..if you ever get hurt real bad and it did some real damage that may effect you the rest of your life..you BETTER have a good reason that it was not even remotley your fault..such as personal safety reasons,using your own faulty Personal Protective Equipment....etc
It's very RARE anymore for someone to win a big battle against companies anymore,too many new laws and escape routes...NEVER trust a company when you get injured on the job,they'll lie thru their teeth to make you look bad and get away having to pay you for thier screw ups...

It is not how fast it turns dark or how dark it is, it is the UV filter that does the work to protect against arc flash.
Working with other welders near by or working inside a vessel will let a lot of UV attack you from your back.
Wearing a good pair of wrap around safety glasses under your hood will save you those pains.
I have fitted for welders for 16 hr shifts 5 days a week and never had arc flash just by wearing safety glasses.
btw, I have a Hobart "the Hood", works like the day it was new - never had a problem with it yet.
If you got fired for a work related injury, get a lawyer and sue their *****!
they can't do that
Optrel..Made in switzerland...
ArcOne..Switzerland also...
Miller..made In KOREA
I've tried every one of these mentioned..and owned 1 Arcone Carerra and old Optrel...
I currently still own and use the Jackson NexGen and Speedglas 100V and both of them have been abused to hell and back,,and still workin like new..the Jacksons always seem to have the BEST clarity in the lens out of all of them............
But recently tried out the new lincoln 3350 and the features and clarity are real nice..and good price too...
The cheapo's i speak of..are the mass produced for no one specials,companies and people pay a little fee to have their name put on them,but several companies have the same exact thing...those are mass produced JUNK and have no real quality control...
Miller and Lincoln supposedly has their own people at the plants making them 24/7 over-seeing the operations and quality.
I've had the Miller Elite for a short time..my son kind of "claimed" it when he was working a government job learning TIG..i didn;t care much about it after the fact that i bought it and was thinking i was getting an american made product because it was Miller...wrong thinking...
It went on the blink only about a year and a 1/2 afterwards..and Miller claimed he abused and only wanted to give him a little discount for a new one..the abuse was claimed because the hood had slight scratches on it...i've yet to see anyone who actualy USES a welding hood stay nice n pretty..so after that expereince and a few issues i've seen freinds have with new Miller machines too?..their name is not on my buying list anymore...
The biggest factor here,all those mass produced no name brands that people only buy as a product and have their name put on them are the ones that have really unkown lens in them..my suggestion if ever buying one..throw away the lens covers and go buy some good quaility Z87.1 polycarbonate lens covers....that way at last you KNOW you have at least 2 of them for real protection.
I'd be willing to bet some of those "name brand" names are Chinese imports. Especially since the Chinese are flooding the U.S. market with cheap solar cells.
If you got weld flash from that hood,then it was clearly as cheap as you can get...
This is why i always go with a top brand name..Jackson,Speedglas,Lincoln,Miller,Arcone,Optr el...etc..they do have a lower budget end hood to compete with the chinese junk...
Buyin the cheapo's never garauntee you they are ANSI Z87.1 standard..,,,i'd NEVER trust them no matter what they say,the places they are made are lowest quality and standards you can get.....
Weld hoods have 3 layers of protection..outside and inside clear cover lens..and the auto or standard filter itself....it only takes ONE of them to totaly prevent any kind of weld flash as long is it IS truely a ANSI Z87.1...as was told before in this thread,ANSI Z87.1 means it will block 99.9% of UV and IR light in the clear lens..and 100% in the dark lens...auto lens are the dark lens at all times..
It doesnt matter if its the standard type or auto filter,if it isn't up to standard then it'll hurt you.........
I started as an International Ironworker in 1978..back in the 70's and 80's it was common for anyone to get a weld flash,from minor to severe enough to have to take a day off work...it was pretty common to be at work and have a slight weld flash and sort of be on light duty away from the welding and bright sunlight..
But that has all changed 100% since we have been reuqired to wear ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses no matter where you are on the job...so the glasses take care of it alone..and then the 3 more you have in the sheild..if you get flash at all..something is totaly wrong or your fault for not using up to par equipment such as at the minimum good quality safety glasses...and you can buy a pair of quality glasses for 3.00 or even less..check out Crews and Uvex brands....top quality and cheap............
In all honesty..i've yet to have weld flash in the past 10 years or more since i went totaly auto lens in all my hoods..at the moment i am still using my Jackson NexGen and Speedglas 100V..all my old standard lens hoods have been collecting dust and spider webs in the shed..you can actualy prevent less of a weld flash with an auto because you never worry about holding your gun or rod close to the work before flipping the hood down and a good possibility of arc flashing your self before you start....and it makes for better quality work..no arc strikes everywhere and you always get a good start where you need it.........
I used to be the one who always asked the guys in the 90's when they came to the job with an auto and ask them"that purty fancy thing weld for you too"?..lol
Little did i know at the time..the advantage those guys had over my old heavy Fibermetals and easily scratched glass lens................
I'll add one more thing incase it hasn't been covered..but it probaly won't pertain to guys in a garage welding by theirself...if you have people welding around you while you are welding and have no good safety glasses on under the hood....you can EASILY get a bad weld flash from the other people's reflection off the inside of your weld lens....the UV and IR rays reflects ....thats how i got the worse weld flash of my life..welding Nelson studs on the deck while everyone around me was also welding them down..i had an old Jackson standard big lens hood...i couldn;t do anything or even leave the house for 3 days..couldn;t even look a the TV without hurting.......
It's kind of a "sticky" because it gets pulled up often after people find it in a search. There is good into there for any new readers.
This is an OLD thread, wonder if the guy still needs input?
I have never welded that steady for so long, maybe a time or two one day long but never day after day, you bet you need good protection!
I have posted earlier in this thread about my distaste for the autodark helmets, I just don't like them.
I am on my second Accustrike helmet and won't work without one, check them out. welding helmets auto darkening Auto Dark alternative Hands free
$48 Princess Auto hood
I agree with some of the opinions expressed here about using cheapo helmets at home. NP
I want to tell you my story from Thursday July 19, 2012.
I was using the Princess Auto adjustable from 9 to 13 solar powered helmet 3 ten hour shifts that week. I had felt light discomfort in my eyes after the first 10 hour shift during my sleep, so I went to the drug store to get something for it. I bought Polysporin drops for eyes. I used it 2 times and welded for another 10 hours on Tuesday. My eyes felt less irritated during my second nights sleep. I worked a third 10 hour shift welding on Wednesday, and felt fine. I got to sleep around 3:30 AM and woke up at 5:30 AM with severe sandy eyes and much water coming out. After much consternation, I called a cab and went to the hospital emergency. I was unsure if I had any foreign material in there. The Doctor said it was arc flash, and gave me the next 2 days off. I also got a claim for 1 days pay through Worker's Compensation.
I called into my employer and told them about my need to miss a day. I sat at home all day Thursday with bouts of crying eyes, and Friday I was fired.
So, I think that I was fired due to a faulty helmet if used for 10 hours. My plan on my next job is to use a manual helmet, and screw the auto-dark ones.
Miller helmet
It was an older model with a 2 year warranty and it quit after 2 years. So I shouldn't complain.
The technology has come so far in a short time it's crazy,once you use a GOOD auto lens,you are RUINED for life,lol
I think that may be the reason we still hear complaints about these things not working for long, batteries not lasting long and not replaceable, etc, but things have come a long way in just the last 5 or 6 years and if someone has one 10 years or older then there simply is no comparison.
The reason I was so interested in finding out if the Kobalt was the same as the HF helmet is that the first Hobart, the one they called "The Hood" (and Miller of the same model), auto dark had the same exact "Chameleon" brand lens as the first models that HF sold! I had a Hobart bought in 2001 for $199.99 at Tractor Supply and that same year I was looking at the ones at HF for $59.99 and saw the similarities but when I looked at the lens it was exactly the same thing! Same brand lens in a different shell and while I am sure the shell was not as good as the Hobart there certainly was not $150 worth of difference. Both the Hobart (and Miller) and HF use a different lens now and until recently I wondered if they were still the same but after looking at the HF models I now know they are not but 9 years ago they sure were the same thing.
BTW, that old Hobart is still working just fine!

Comic Relief
At 20, I left Northampton with an A6-sized political map of Europe, and hitchhiked onto the ferry, where I paid for chips but filled myself on ketchup. After unloading, I slept for five hours at the edge of a field—my first-ever night alone—then stuck my thumb out at first light. I arrived at the tiny village of La Palud sur Verdon at the end of a summer's day just as two of my friends were coming down the main street on their way back from the crag.
"The eagle has landed!" Paul called out to me. I hadn't seen him in seven weeks and we hugged each other.
Hang on. What year was that? Reebok trainers, thin legs, tattered wool. Sportiva Megas, double ropes and long hair. Sometime late 1980s. Society hadn't cottoned on to climbing yet but hippies had. There were really only two sport crags in Europe—the only two crags that weren't alpine—and they were Verdon for adventure-chasers and Buoux for number-chasers. The usual procedure was to stick it out as long as you dared in Verdon, then head over to Buoux to relax and punch your grade up.
Paul led me to the campsite where my old friends, a little Irish cadre, cheered me a great welcome. We strew out about the tents and right away the banter began.
"How was the hitch down?" someone asked.
"Fantastic," I told them.
"Any action off men in fast black cars?" (We had all heard the stories about Continental drivers looking for "payback" for rides.)
"Just the one, a Dutchman," I told them. "But he was a perfect gentleman to me afterward."
"Oh, yes, took you home to meet his mother?"
"No. He kept her in the trunk."
I met some new Irish climbers, saw a few old acquaintances and shook a bunch of hands. I sat in the golden short-trousered evening enjoying the scene and feeling for the first time in weeks that I was in some sort of bosom. All the while my friends called over passers-by and made fun of them. The passers-by all seemed to enjoy this. My group had already acquired a campsite-wide reputation for eccentricity and I felt welcomed as a peer.
Paul cooked me a quick dinner involving, exotically, a courgette, then alcohol took control and led us towards the small village. A fitful evening followed: an arcade game, red sauce, a raised voice, and a quiet road out of town.
Next morning the heat was soon unbearable and by 9 a.m. we were sitting on chairs and looking at our feet. I knew if I waited long enough it would happen, and eventually a cup of tea arrived in my hand. This revived me some and soon talk turned to the fact that we were going to have to go climbing.
"Here comes Howard," Paul said.
Howard, who was staying at the other campsite with his girlfriend, strolled over to the group. He had a car and was driving to the crag in 15 minutes if anyone wanted a lift. Paul immediately bagged a ride for the two of us.
Howard cast an eye over us all.
"Did you have yourselves a riot last night?"
"More of a war, Howard."
"Looks like you lost it."
"Haven't you ever heard of a tactical defeat, Howard?"
He grinned. "I'll bring my car around to the gate at 10. If you make it that far you can have a lift."
He mooched off.
Wow! I'm off to the Verdon Gorge.
That meant packing climbing gear from the mess around us. I dropped what I could find into my rucksack, which was soon stuffed. I lay down and saw Paul come back from the toilets and pack his own bag. He folded his quickdraws and put them into the sack. He then placed his boots and chalk and some water on top of them. He folded his rope in two and slotted it in. He pulled the drawstring at the top of the sack and toggled it tight. He then drew the string around the nylon extension and cinched that tight too. He folded the lid of the rucksack over, clicked the straps into their buckles and drew them each individually to a certain tension. He then tousled the lid to seat it straight and turned around to look at me.
Isn't it funny how different we all are.
"Come on," he said, "we better go. Howard's there."
He swung up his rucksack and led off. I grabbed mine in my hand and followed him.
Someone hailed us from the corner of the field.
"Hi, you two!"
We looked over. A figure waved to us from a group of tents.
"It's Gerry," Paul said. He said Gerry in a slow Irish/Texan accent, an amplification of the drawl Gerry affected. He had hung out for a bit at our tents the night before. We trooped over and said hello. Gerry introduced me to his three companions, all of them girls, sitting on very low camping stools. All had little empty coffee cups.
Gerry had grown up in our same area but he wasn't quite part of our group. We liked him well enough but didn't quite gel. He was a little bit older and while there were people amongst us who were older than Gerry, the spirit was very young. His upbringing had been like our own, but he had moved away somewhere and had had his edges worn off and replaced with new ones. Around his ankles were some beads and he had a small Kathmandu shoulder bag with him always. He knew women.
The worst thing I could say about him is he was too cool.
"Were you boys naughty last night?" he asked, in his slow voice.
The girls were looking at me and I looked down at them. I felt myself being stared at. My spirit was not yet awake and I was feeling quite tender. The phrasing of Gerry's question made me feel childlike and silly.
"Well, you know the way it is yourself, Gerry," I said, hoping for the lifeline of common humanity. I waited.
"He's a funny man," Gerry said, addressing the girls, loudly enough to make me think that one or more of them did not speak English as their first language.
"Tells good jokes," he added.
The girls all nodded appreciatively towards Gerry. I had told some new gags the night before, although I had noticed that they often left Gerry lukewarm. I began to feel uncomfortable.
"Tell us a joke," Gerry said.
"Yay, jokes!" said a girl on the left in bare feet.
I didn't want to tell a joke. If I did and everybody laughed, would Gerry get a round of applause? I got the sense that he was trying to gain from me somehow in the girls' eyes. I felt that I was being used.
They looked on; they wanted a joke.
For some reason, at quiet stops on my hitchhike down, I had been thinking about an old joke from my childhood. An odd joke it was, and so bad that I had eventually decided that it was actually a very early example of postmodernism. I tripped straight into it.
A boy and his mother go into a department store and the mother asks the shopkeeper if he has any monogrammed handkerchiefs for her son.
I scribed the letter M onto the palm of my left hand to be sure the girls weren't wondering what monogrammed meant.
"Yes, certainly, madam, what letter?"
"Let me see."
He pulls out some hankies but says, "Sorry, madam, we don't have any S's."
"Ah, that's OK," she says. "Come on, son, we'll try somewhere else."
This being a fairly structured joke, the scene is repeated twice more in different shops. Gerry and the three girls were still with me and the one of them on the far right, who if not for her dreadlocks would have been quite pretty, was oscillating her head in a generally encouraging manner. I saw Paul grinning on the sideline, one hand cocked on his hip. I rejoined the action in the third shop.
The assistant searches and searches and eventually says, "Sorry, madam, I've looked everywhere and we don't have any S's."
"Oh, well," she says. "Come on, Shuie, we'll try somewhere else."
Paul immediately burst out a laugh and I joined him. I stood in mock acceptance of the crowd's appreciation even though there was none. Written over their faces was the question, Was that it? But I had clearly stopped talking. I deliberately wore an idiotic smile.
You see, it's the strangest joke. The thing is that Shuie was what some people in my hometown, Derry, called people whose name was Hugh. So if she calls her son Shuie, then the first letter isn't S, it's H. And the joke is that this woman was so stupid she didn't know that it begins with H.
I looked expectantly at Gerry, who felt forced to join us in a laugh. The girls turned their inquisitive gaze towards him for an explanation. Gerry? Still making out I'd scored a blinder, I shouldered my rucksack, nodded c'mon to Paul, and with some aplomb said goodbye to the girls and Gerry.
Au revoir!
We left Gerry to it and as we started away I heard him falter into an explanation. The funny thing was that Gerry didn't grow up in Derry, he grew up in Strabane, which was 11 miles away. And in Strabane they just call Hugh Hugh.
Use me, will he? Paradoxically, it was nice to feel that I was worth using, and I strode off down the campground with new vim.
"Oi, come on," Paul said.
Howard was waiting at the gate.
"Can't believe I'm on my way to the Verdon Gorge."
We got to the car and squeezed in the back seat.
"Take us to the crag, Showard," demanded Paul.
He elbowed me hard in the arm.
"I haven't heard that one in years," he said.

|Discovered at RSW
|Blasting Caps (LWB)
- Seven inert blasting caps used for training in the mining industry were discovered in checked baggage at Greenbrier County Airport (LWB).
- Four inert/replica/novelty grenades were discovered this week. Two were discovered at Honolulu (HNL), and the others were discovered at Salt Lake City (SLC), and Wichita (ICT).
- Nine rounds of .45 caliber ammunition were detected concealed in the pull-handle stowaway compartment of a carry-on bag at Norfolk (ORF).
- A 3½-inch double-edged knife was detected inside the sole of a shoe at San Diego (SAN).
|Knife Concealed In Shoe (RSW)
What Not to Say at an Airport – Statements like these not only delay the people who said them but can also inconvenience many other passengers if the checkpoint or terminal has to be evacuated:
- After learning that his luggage had made a flight that he missed, a Las Vegas (LAS) passenger told the gate agent: "Imagine there was a bomb in my bag. I'm not on plane, and it would explode."
Firearms Discovered This Week
Unfortunately these sorts of occurrences are all too frequent which is why we talk about these finds. Sure, it's great to share the things that our officers are finding, but at the same time, each time we find a dangerous item, the throughput is slowed down and a passenger that likely had no ill intent ends up with a citation or in some cases is even arrested. The passenger can face a penalty as high as $7,500.00. This is a friendly reminder to please leave these items at home. Just because we find a prohibited item on an individual does not mean they had bad intentions, that's for the law enforcement officer to decide. In many cases, people simply forgot they had these items.

Blind Snakes, Ramphotyphlops spp., are small, non-venomous snakes and are rarely encountered. They are nocturnal and usually burrow through the soil, although they may be seen moving on the surface on warm humid nights. They are found in loamy soils, under rocks, in or under rotting logs or in ant or termite nests. All species lay eggs and feed primarily on ants and/or termites. Most are pink or grey in colour with extremely shiny scales. They are incapable of biting.
Ramphotyphlops australis is a very robust species, with 22 mid-body scale rows and an average length of 25 cm (maximum 46 cm). It is grey or purplish brown above, with a slightly paler head and has a pale yellow or pinkish-white belly. It is found in north-western Victoria and females lay 2-11 eggs per clutch.

Ramphotyphlops proximus is another heavily-built species. It has a rounded head, 20 mid-body scale rows and has an average length of 50 cm (maximum 70 cm). It is a dark brown snake and occurs in north-central Victoria. Females lay up to 35 eggs per clutch.

Ramphotyphlops bituberculatus is a slender species with a distinctly trilobed head. It has 20 mid-body scale rows and an average length of 30 cm (maximum 45 cm). Unlike the other three species of blind snakes in Victoria, which are grey or black as adults, this species is pale brown. It occurs in north-western and north-central Victoria and females lay 2-9 eggs per clutch.

Ramphotyphlops nigrescens has 22 mid-body scale rows and a total length of up to 75 cm. Its colour ranges from purplish pink-brown to almost black above and creamish pink below. It occurs throughout central and eastern Victoria.

Hi Oscar,
Thanks for your offer! The Discovery Centre can certainly pass on the images you took of a blind snake to our Herpetology Curator. You can send any images and information to the Discovery Centre via our Ask the Experts enquiry form.
Sappy, it is generally very difficult to "unearth" blind snakes, who like to remain underground; however, heavy rains will obviously disrupt all burrowing species in a certain area, for a time. And Selina, there are numerous blind snake species in the Northern Territory; in fact, blind snakes love tropical environments, and there is even a species known as the Darwin Blind Snake. Hope this helps!
Hi Jasmine, Ramphotyphlops australis is found in the drier parts of Southern Australia and so would be found in parts of South Australia. These snakes are not venomous and are nothing to worry about.
Hi Kristy,
Blind snakes are found throughout Australia (except Tasmania). The are not venomous and no threat – the are burrowing snakes, so not commonly seen on the surface. However, it is most common to see them on the surface following rain.
Hi Suryo, so little is known about the biology of blind snakes. One possibility is that over winter large numbers of these snakes may rely on each other thermally to survive. The other possibility is that some snakes are known to form large breeding groups in Spring.
Hi Meaghan, our Curator of Herpetology has said that seems small for a blind snake egg. However, their eggs can vary significantly in size, depending on the size of the species (larger species lay larger eggs) – some of the very small species have quite small eggs but this still seems very small if it was only 3mm across. Is it possible that this might be an insect egg? Blind snakes eat insect eggs and larvae.
Hi Sarah,
Sounds like your father handled it very well. Picking up with tongs & putting in a bucket to carry outside or even using a dust-pan broom to gently sweep it into a bucket is a good way of moving a blind snake without having to touch it while not harming it. A bucket is tall enough that a small blind snake will not be able to get up the sides. Very little is known about the biology of blind snakes, so to be honest I don't know how long they live for.
Hi Georgina,
Where you find one you may find more - there is likely to be a healthy breeding population in the area. Blind snakes are wonderful creatures but are seen only rarely, though more often after rain.
Heidi; sorry we can't really help with this; 19th-floor Shanghai snakes are not something we have expertise on - you might want to contact a local natural history museum for more information, such as the Shanghai Natural History Museum at http://www.sstm.org.cn/kjg_Web/html/defaultsite/portal/index/index.htm
Hope this helps
Hello Gail,
The Discovery Centre can identify specimens and objects that relate to Museum Victoria's Collections and Research areas of Science, Indigenous Cultures and Australian History and Technology.
Before submitting your identification request, please read our guidelines for using our identification service.
Follow this link to our on-line form and scroll to the end to submit identification requests – there is a section where you can also upload photographs.
Hi Joel,
Blind snakes are protected in Victoria and they are not permitted to be kept by the general public. Many species of reptiles can be kept with permits, but not blind snakes. It's also illegal to collect any reptiles from the wild without appropriate permits, and these are issued very judiciously. If you are in Victoria and has collected them from the wild, you need to contact the Department of Sustainability and Environment and/or return the snakes to where they were collected. If you live outside Victoria, please check the regulations with the local wildlife authorities. The diet of blind snakes is mostly ants or termites, but most species prefer the eggs of bullants.
Hi Reahenna,
Depending on where in Far North Queensland you are, the blind snake could be one of half a dozen species. A more accurate location could narrow it down, and a picture may help but it usually doesn't with blind snakes - you usually have to count the scales to be sure of the species. A useful tool is the Atlas of Living Australia website in which you can search by location. This will give you all the species recorded within 10km of your location.
Hi Yolanda - according to "The Reptiles and Amphibians of Australia, 6th Edition" by Harold Cogger, species of the genus Ramphotyphlops are all similar in appearance and vary externally in minor features such as scale pattern and arrangement, colour and relative proportions; the thickness doesn't appear to be used for a diagnostic characteristic of each species as it would probably vary between individuals due to factors such as age, if the individual was pregnant or had recently eaten, or other reasons. The only way to be certain of the species would involve observing and counting scales.
Hope this helps.
Hi Lynette,
Yes, it is definitely a blind snake in the photo, and it is harmless.
Hi Kate,
It does sound like a blind snake from your description, but if you are concerned about both the safety of you and the snake then certainly contact the reptile park to make sure.
Hi Annette,
The blind snakes sound fascinating. Unfortunately we can't assist with any identifications without a good clear image of the snakes. All the best!
Firstly, blind snakes are notoriously difficult to identify and definitely can't be accurately determined from photos. Mid-body scale row counts and facial scale arrangements are needed to ID them to species.
After a recent revision, all Australian blind snakes have been designated to the genus Anilos. Your snake would most likely be Anilos australis, a small robust species common in Perth area.
Although fossorial they have been known to climb to reach ant nests off the ground (they feed on ant larvae and eggs exclusively). If there is moisture in your gutters they may have been attracted for that reason.
Alternatively they could have been found by a bird and carried up there. They excrete a foul smell when harassed so the bird might have decided they're not palatable. But this is unlikely given you found two of them. Interesting observation anyway.
Hi Jelo,
Blind Snakes (Family Typhlopidae) are all non-venomous. The genera Ramphotyphlops and Typhlops occur naturally in the Philippines and feed on insects and other small invertebrates. Some species can grow to 90cm (3 feet) but most are less than 30cm (1 foot).
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Hi Max, This sort of information is not really kept by Australian state or federal institutions, but rather by the issuing entity which in this case would ...
