Sandy •Roy Healy can't be a police officer for a while, but he's still thankful he was convicted of impaired driving.
Healy said his arrest and court-required counseling turned around his life. He said he hasn't had a drink since his arrest on Oct. 7, 2011.
"I can truly see the hand of God in my life based on the events of Oct. 7, 2011," Healy told the Utah Peace Officer Standards and Training Council on Monday.
Healy was one of nine peace officers the council booted or disciplined at its quarterly meeting at the state police academy. Healy received an 18-month suspension of his police certification.
Healy, 40, attended the meeting to explain what happened, though he did not ask for leniency. In the fall of 2011, Healy, then a certified police officer who was unemployed at the time, was in the midst of a divorce. He bought a bottle of vodka, parked in a church parking lot, and drank until he passed out. The car was running to keep the air conditioning operating, Healy said.
A Taylorsville police officer found Healy and arrested him. Healy pleaded guilty to impaired driving, a misdemeanor. He received a year of probation and a $1,340 fine, according to court records.
Davis County Sheriff's deputy Phillip A. Rogers received a one-year suspension. According to a synopsis provided to the council, Rogers wasn't getting along with another deputy and began sending that deputy anonymous text messages falsely claiming the deputy's wife was having an affair. Rogers resigned from the sheriff's office in May.
While Healy and Rogers can reapply to have their certifications renewed after the suspensions, few officers do so. Council data has shown the majority of officers who have certification suspended do not return to law enforcement.
Three peace officers had their certifications revoked for lying. Joshua Kim Lever was a Draper police officer who was found to have lied when he said he missed work because he was sick and went to the doctor, according to a synopsis provided to the council.
Shayne Bolte, then of the Granite School District Police Department, was placed on leave by the department. Then his police car suffered damage as it sat in his driveway. Bolte filed a police report saying someone had vandalized the car and then was uncooperative with investigators, according to the synopsis.
And Marvin Scott Greene, of the Unified Police Department, was off duty when he reported he fired at an armed suspect outside his home. Police arrived to investigate but couldn't find any shell casings. Greene eventually admitted he didn't shoot at anyone.

Law officers disciplined
The Utah Peace Officer Standards and Training Council also took these actions on Monday:
John E. Halacy, Weber County Sheriff's Office, received a three-year suspension for assault and public intoxication.
Jason R. Sorenson, Utah Department of Corrections, received an 18-month suspension for wanton destruction of protected wildlife.
Two other Department of Corrections personnel received letters of caution for disorderly conduct.

Hey Guys
My kids were cleaning the garage and my eldest (soon to be sold) son lent on my armor and snapped the left top corner. Not sure on the origins of the armor as I brought it of another TAG member.
Can I reinforce the underside with fiberglass? If I rough it up really well it should work or would it be safer to go new?

So newbie here.... I currently have a 23 which I think is awesome. I am looking to add a 27 to my collection and was curious if this model has gone through any changes since it first came out. If so, what are they? I have found some pretty good pricing on a new one, but my neighbor might be selling me his 27. He has had it for a while, so I am assuming it's one of the first generations.
If there is a difference in the generations, what are they, and what should I be looking for?
Thanks for any input at all!

NH boy a vigilant opponent of horse slaughter
By DAN TUOHY
New Hampshire Union Leader | December 28. 2013 9:07PM
Declan Gregg, 11, of Greenland is an animal welfare advocate who has been fighting for a federal ban on slaughterhouses and horse meat for human consumption since he was 9 years old. courtesy
Gregg, who was the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Humane Kid of the Year in 2012, continues to fight for the SAFE Act, the Safeguard American Food Exports Act, a version of which was introduced in the U.S. House and Senate. That bill would prohibit the sale or transport of horses or horse parts in interstate or foreign commerce for human consumption.
Declan Gregg was inspired to speak out two years ago, when he was 9 and noticed his mother was saddened by the horse slaughter issue. He soon found his voice, and encouraged other children to speak out, as well. He promoted letter campaigns to legislators and spoke before the politicians in Concord and in Washington, D.C.
The ASPCA uses the term "horse slaughter" to refer to horses killed for human consumption. While no horse slaughterhouses currently operate, the ASPCA says American horses continue to be trucked over borders to slaughter facilities in Mexico and Canada.

'Indeed, Regier and the Sabres have experienced more disappointments than successes in terms of immediate impact since the lockout. The Sabres are among the worst in terms of players' numbers dropping. They have failed to reach the NHL average in every category of trades and signings.'
Archives for June 2012
Wheeling and dealing failing to pay off
Buffalo Sabres eager to test draft picks
'Sabres general manager Darcy Regier said there is no reason to rush either player. "It's a bonus," he said, if they are ready to play now, but "not something you fully want to commit on."'
Grigorenko could be Sabres' biggest offseason addition
'"The quality is there," Regier said about the market. "The quantity isn't there, and so there will be an awful lot of competition for really very few players, so most teams are going to fail in unrestricted free agency. Hopefully, we're not one of them."'
Sabres set to open talks with Grigorenko
'Whether or not Grigorenko proves ready, Regier added that the Sabres aren't done stockpiling centers this offseason. After using two first-round picks — Buffalo also traded up to select Zemgus Girgensons with the 14th pick — and four of their eight picks on centers, Regier is now turning his attention to acquiring experienced players either through free agency or by trade.'
Sabres Grigorenko is already working out with his new team
'"Right now all my family is in North America so I already went to Russia for my brother's wedding so for the rest of the summer, I will stay in North America. He will stay in Buffalo at least through Rookie Camp which is July 8-13 and maybe longer than that.'
What They're Saying About The Sabres' Top Picks
'"Girgenson's size, strength and intangibles are all great news for Buffalo – as in the span of two picks, the Sabres jump from among the worst teams in terms of prospect depth at center, to the best."'
Grigorenko Meets the Media
'On another note, Grigorenko is excited about wearing a Buffalo Sabres uniform, "All the time, I think the Buffalo Sabres jersey is like one of the most beautiful jerseys in the league," he said.'
Grigorenko Could Play Early for Sabres
'"When that happens, as it's happened in the past with someone like Tyler Myers, it's a bonus, you recognize it," said General Manager Darcy Regier. "They get an opportunity to play, but it's not something you want to fully have to count on."'
Free agents will be shown the money despite CBA issue
'The Buffalo Sabres are expected to have $9.82 million in cap space for 2012-13, according to Buffalo News evaluations.'
Trades scarce as GMs wait for July 1
'"There's no question that there's a domino effect here," Sabres GM Darcy Regier said. "The tendency is when one player moves, others will move. They can tend to hold up the rest of the marketplace."'
Sabres living large with new men in middle
'"The focus is on depth down the middle and some good size with it," Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier said Saturday. "They went very well."'
McCabe handles selection by Sabres like a pro
'"We weren't sure if we were going to get a forward or a defense, but he was too high up on our board there," said Kevin Devine, the Sabres' director of amateur scouting. "We saw him, and we really liked what we saw. He's going to be a real tough guy to play against. He's good at moving the puck. Ron Rolston called him a warrior."'
Buffalo Sabres add size in NHL Draft
'"I'm not sure if it's the influence of the L.A. Kings with their size winning the playoffs," Devine said. "With the Ennises, the Roys and the Gerbes, we're kind of staying away from those guys until the outlook of our team changes a little bit."'
Early picks have Sabres excited about 2012 draft potential
'"The focus is on centermen, some size, and those two players were identified," Sabres general manager Darcy Regier said. "And we were fortunate in that that there was a run on defensemen."'
Sabres believe final draft picks have potential
'"If you look at his stats, they're not very good," he said. "Halfway through the season they fired their coach. They got a coach there, Greg Gilbert, that Darcy and myself have both played with. He thinks he's going to be a good third-line center in the National Hockey League. So he's going to be a better skating Paul Gaustad."'

Also look for "MG47" in this section, I think that thread will answer most of your questions.
Printable View
As it has been said multiple times... You'll want to read the original MG-47 thread about 50 times before you 'get it' and even then you'll maybe only know about 75% of what you'll need to know to finish these builds.
I've read it about 60 times now, and I'm still hardly getting started! :lol:
I built the original MG47 and in building the MG47ES I tried to simplify things but it's still an adaptation of a a bunch of various different part not originally intended to to work together. The relationship of the top cover/feed tray to the trunnion and chamber is very critical as well as the cam roller to the bolt face. Read all the posts on the MG47, MG47jr and the MG47ES several times until you understand how the parts all work together. Ask questions if you have to. All of us previous builders would be more than happy to try to answer your questions even if you think it might be stupid. It took me 7 or 8 months to get the first one working, alot of thought and false starts. When you do get it done and fully functioning, it's a great, almost euphoric feeling. Don't give up, if you can build an AK you can build a MG47, it just takes a bit longer, a bit more involved and takes a bit more patiences.
GOT THE "ES" TO SHOOT RELIABLY TODAY! From both the spade grips and buttstock & gripstick. Now I can work on the tutorial and plans. I will post some details shortly.
Good to see it up and running! And you only yelled halfway through the post!! ---bil {yes,I am here,too!]
hurry man hurry the wife is gettin restless. but as far as my say goes take yer time so we can git it right.
impatiently waiting:rockin:
Yikes, you found me. I really have not been shouting except for a few warrented cases.
The MG47ES working is one thoses cases. Now I need to get real busy and put together all my build pictures of the ES and get the drawing finished so they are available to everybody. If you read my 88 some posts on MG47 beltfeed and Mg47ES you will see I have kept my voice down and haven't shouted much.
I was wondering... You mention you got some of your steel from Home Depot.
I've been to my two nearby Home Depots, and I can't find ANY square tube steel at ANY of them... Is there some particular SECTION of HD where I should be looking? I just can't seem to find it anywhere... What parts did you get from your HD?
I appreciate any info, so I can get to buying some of the steel & other supplies for this build!
The steel I got for the MG47ES was at Home Depot. The square tubing is for the original MG47, I got it a SpeedyMetals.com. The MG47ES receiver is not made out of square tubing but flat bar bolted together with small angle all of which you can get at HD.

Pending agreement definitely had some more work to be done. "Now my focus but again fully on the hockey games," said Pominville. He is a player who has such qualities in offensive and defensive bring with it was accustomed to stand at key stages on the ice.'

Letter to the editor: A sign of the times
January 17, 2013
I opened my paper Wednesday morning and read two articles on the state of our local education. The first article that caught my eye featured the optimistic news that our South Tahoe High School library secured grant money from the local Rotary club to help "pay for the subscription to the Junior Library Guild, a program that stocks the shelves with new books every month." The article describes the reason for this need: a lack of state funding for libraries, and the lack of cash in our general fund to help offset state fund deficiencies. However, the second-largest article on the front page explains how our school district has hired a consultant to "create a comprehensive technology and security plan" in the wake of the tragedy in Connecticut. I wonder how much money this consultant is costing the district and where is this money coming from?
Is this just a sign of the times? It's a sad day when libraries have to beg for books.

Oct 01, 2013
The number of mobile devices has now surpassed personal computers in sales. They are increasingly being used for business, which means that users expect to access all the applications they need to do their jobs, including business intelligence (BI), on these devices. Because BI can be sensitive and confidential, they also want to be sure it is protected from unauthorized users such as hackers and that it can't be accessed if the device is lost or stolen.
IBM has gone to significant lengths to ensure the security of IBM Cognos Mobile operating on smart phones and tablet devices. This paper describes how.

The European Commission against Racism and Intolerance publishes reports on Bulgaria, Hungary and Norway
Strasbourg, 24.02.2009 – Ms Eva Smith Asmussen, Chair of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI), announced today the release of the first three reports of a new series of country monitoring, examining racism and intolerance in Europe. The reports on Bulgaria, Hungary and Norway are the first of ECRI's fourth round of country monitoring work, which focuses on the implementation of ECRI's previous recommendations, the evaluation of policies and new developments since its last report.
ECRI underlines that positive developments have occurred in all three of these Council of Europe member states. At the same time, however, the reports detail continuing grounds for concern for ECRI:
In Bulgaria, the legal and institutional framework against racism and discrimination has been strengthened and initiatives have been taken to improve the situation of Roma and of refugees. However, some anti-racism or anti-discrimination legal provisions are rarely applied, the situation of Roma and asylum seekers remains worrying, the public's awareness of problems of racism and intolerance still needs to be raised, and the response of the justice system to racist publications and to allegations of racist or discriminatory behaviour on the part of the police should be improved.
In Hungary, the Equal Treatment Authority which has been operating since 2005 can award compensation to victims of discrimination and impose fines on persons or bodies that commit discrimination. A variety of measures have also been taken to improve the integration of disadvantaged individuals, including Roma, and steps have been taken to improve the situation of asylum seekers. However, the recent rise in racist and xenophobic discourse in Hungarian society is worrying, as is the continuing disadvantage experienced by Roma in every field of daily life. Negative stereotypes also remain with respect to migrants and asylum seekers, who experience difficulties in gaining access to housing and employment.
In Norway, the legal and institutional framework against racism and discrimination has been strengthened and the vast majority of the measures foreseen in the National Plan of Action to Combat Racism and Discrimination (2002-2006) have been implemented. However, the situation of persons of immigrant background remains worrying in sectors such as employment and school education, as well as the situation of Roma and Romani/Taters. Political discourse sometimes takes on racist and xenophobic overtones, and the police still have important challenges to take up, including in the field of addressing racial profiling.
For each of these country monitoring reports an interim follow-up will take place no later than two years after the publication of the reports.
ECRI's country-specific reports, with government observations appended, are available at: www.coe.int/ecri
ECRI is an independent human rights body of the Council of Europe which monitors problems of racism and intolerance, prepares reports and issues recommendations to member states.

how much money do you have to spend?
What kind of tools do you have? Do you have a library of how to build engine books? do you have a GOOD engine stand? Do you have a place outside, not in a basement to build your motor? Do you have anyone to help and learn build? Double check every move you make. Like when you build something and they say measure twice, you need to double check what you are doing. I would like to say I taught myself but I didn't , my father taught me the basics and I have grown from there. Good luck and I know we will be hearing a LOT from YOU! OH YEA, ask questions even if you think you know what you are supposed to do, it will save you $$$$$ and headache's.
Rat Rods Rule!
those are great starting points.i have to say i really appriciate
it.though i have seen that book short blocks on a budget thought about getting it but didnt know if it would be worth the money
or the content would be over my head.i was going to ask about it in my first post but forgot about it.again thx everyone.
|First, what are you putting the motor in and what are you wanting it to do? That will help you decide what you need to do to the motor. I have a '75 350 sbc that I am putting into my 31 chevy roadster pickup. I have mine bored .060 over, newer crate motor heads, a wiend stealth aluminum intake, and a 600 cfm edelbrock carb. That is plenty of power for me. Changing your cam, intake, and carb are going to be your easiest upgrades.
If you plan on building the 76 small block, your best bet is to find a better set of heads. The miid to late 70s heads don't flow very well, especially if you want to put a bigger cam etc in it.
Just my 2 cents
There are so many different possibilities that you'll have a hard time getting anyone to respond to this question. There's just too many answers.
Here's a suggestion or two. Look around online for people selling 'crate 350 engines' then find a few that are in the HP range you want. Write down what they list for upgrades and mods to the engine. After you dig around a little while you'll get a pretty good idea of what mods you'll need to get wherever it is you're aiming for.
Some companies like Edelbrock list engine setups that they built - using all their own parts of course- that show many different HP and performance ranges. You can always check out their stuff and get the specs for what they did, and then shop around.
Once you've got a pretty good picture in mind, if you come back and dig around the site you'll usually find someone has already asked if Brand X's cam is better than Brand Y, etc... The old posts can give you a good street-side opinion of the advantages/disadvantages of certain parts and combos.
There's also an author named David Vizard who has written some excellent books on modifying Chevy Small Blocks. I found a copy of one on building short blocks on a budget in my local library to borrow.
76 350 sb need help
i have a 76 350 sb stock and was wondering how i could determine what i need to the horsepwer i want. say if it already
pulls 300hp and i want to take it to 375hp or higher how would
determine what i need.as you can tell ive never built an engine before but have allways wanted to and now have the opprotunity
so any links to a web site that may offer some step by step to overstock engines would help. if there is such a thing.any help in genrel would be appriciated nice to meet every one and thx.
p.s.have nothing to put this motor in yet but have a few choices
figure i would build the motor first then go from there.

Information For...
Foster Care Exemption
The Foster Care Tuition and Fee Exemption was created to exempt eligible students who were in foster care from all tuition and fees (except building use or general use fees). South Plains College exempts qualified students from all tuition and fees for college-level, remedial and continuing education classes. Students applying for the exemption should provide the Admissions and Records Office with official documents from the Department of Protective and Regulatory Services. After eligible students have registered for classes, they should notify the Financial Aid Office immediately if they wish to use their exemption for that semester. In order to qualify, students must have been in foster care or other residential care on or after:
The day preceding the student's 18th birthday;
The day of the student's 14th birthday, if the student was also eligible for adoption on or after that day;
The day the student graduated high school or received the equivalent of a high school diploma.
An eligible student is exempt from tuition and fees if he or she enrolls in an institution of higher education as an undergraduate student no later than:
The third anniversary of the date the student was discharged from foster or other residential care, the date the student graduated from high school, or the date the student received the equivalent of a high school diploma, whichever date is earliest;
The student's 21st birthday.

Section Navigation
Irregular Operations
There are times when weather severely impacts the national airspace system and the result is that our customers end up being delayed. Since 2001, Boston Logan has made cots available for airlines to use for passengers whose nighttime flights are hours from taking off. We continue to enhance our customer service irregular operations plan by instituting a number of customer-focused strategies to make delays as painless as possible.
In addition to cots and bottled water, we work with concessionaires to make sure they stay open late and restock their supplies as needed if terminals are crowded at night.
We have a Tarmac Delay Contingency Plan to deal with diversions and irregular operations.
Our operations department will work to monitor flights that have pushed back from the gate, but have not departed. If flights are being parked on the airfield for an extended period of time, we will work with airlines to get the aircraft back to a gate. Ultimately, however, it is the airline and pilot's decision to return to a gate.
And, of course, we will work with our cleaning contractors to increase the frequency of cleaning should people be staying in the terminals instead of boarding airplanes.
Finally, communicating information to passengers is critical. Logan is on Facebook and Twitter to help our customers by providing them with information as it becomes available to us.

Thank you very much for your reply Jeff ,as ATM I am looking at a Cal 34 and reasearching them found and read a few post of yours on the net..

I am not saying that a Cal 34 rigged for heaving to is any more prone to a knockdown than any other racer-cruiser of that era. Nor am I saying that the best storm tactic for a Cal 34 is to lie ahull.
My comments were addressing my understanding of the question contained in the terse original post. As I read this post, the original poster was inquiring about adding a bowprit and trying to convert a Cal 34 to a cutter rig (modern definition). My comments were intended to say that Cal 34's are reasonably well balanced boats when flying the proper sail area for the conditions and that adding a bowprit and adding second jib tacked to that bowsprit would probably result in a lee helm, which is never a good idea for a boat intended for offshore use.
In the discussion, my understanding was that Sailingfool was suggesting adding an inner stay in order to fly a storm jib. I was commenting on that suggestion. My point was that in conditions which are heavy enough to require a storm jib you would probably also need to strip the furler of its headsail, because the weight aloft, and windage of a rolled up headsail is enough to knock down a small boat in those kinds of conditions. And also, I would be concerned that a storm jib flown from a jibstay located between the forestay and the mast would result in a lot of weather helm being located so far aft. It is the kind of modification which should not be made lightly since its position is so critical and the structural implications pretty extensive.
Although I admit that my comments were poorly written, my suggestion really was that on a boat the size of the Cal 34 and with a rig proportioned like a Cal 34, I would suggest using hanked-on headsails and having a hanked-on storm jib set on the forestay and a permanent track that runs to the deck for the storm trisail so that the storm trisail to be ready to raise at any time.
For the record, the Cal 34 is a boat that I actually like for coastal cruising but whose hull to deck joint I would consider their achilles heel for offshore use.
Really old thread I know .. But Jeff H , you saying a Cal34 rigged for heaving to is prone to knockdowns ?
A Cal 34 is best to lie ahull in a storm ?
sorry for old thread revival but I am looking for Cal 34 stuff ....
cal 34 - double headsail modification
In high winds weather helm comes from a number of factors but primarily from heeling assymetry and from the dynamic balance between the mainsail and the jib, and the underwater elements generating lateral resistance. In a traditional boat designed to be a cutter, the jibstay (what you have been calling in the ''inner stay'') is tacked to the stemhead and the mast us further aft in the boat and so the center of effort is further aft as well. Similarly, the center of lateral resistance is also located further aft in order to be in balance with a center of effort located farther toward the stern than is typical for a sloop.
But also, as a traditional boat heels the underbody of a traditional hull form develops lesser assymetry when heeled. Shedding the sail on the headstay works on a traditional cutter because everything else is so far aft. The trade off is that traditional cutters were infamous for developing a lot of weather helm when sailed that way.
More modern boats like the Cal inherently develop weather helm when heeled. The key is to develop a dynamic balance and that would require keeping the center of effort pretty far forward.
The other item that you touch on is the furled up jib. In the kinds of winds where a storm jib and storm trisail make sense (or even a third reef makes sense) It is not unusual for a smallish boat (perhaps under 40 feet) to take a knock down simply under the windage of the rolled up sail. (Been there, done that, wore out the teeshirt) When you talk about those kinds of survival conditions you need to strip the roller furler or you are unable to even hove to without taking big knock downs. When you talk about a comparatively low stability boat with a comparatively tall and heavy rig like the Cal 34 this is certainly the case.
cal 34 - double headsail modification
Perhaps we''ll hear again from tgeogeson as we''re both guessing what he meant (Please read his post).
I am surprised about your reservations about use of an inner forestay as this approach is frequently recommended (e.g http://www.sailnet.com/collections/articles/index.cfm?articleid=hancoc0011). I''m no expert on storm sails (we inherited our setup from the Prior Owner), but the experienced boats seem to get the storm jib off the forestay...Isn''t the risk of weather helm primarily determined from the sail area if any set aft the mast? I think that''s why we have a third reef.
From my perspective, being required to remove a genoa when use of a storm jib is required seems a formula for potential hurt.
cal 34 - double headsail modification
Two points here, first of all in his original post tgeorgeson is talking about adding a bowsprit and moving the headstay to the end of the bowsprit and then having the jibstay run to the bow fitting. (Please read his post) This does not permit a removeable jibstay because you never want the primary support for the mast to be tacked to the end of a bowsprit.
The other part of this is that I strongly disagree that "a removeable inner forestay is an effective sail plan for a storm jib" on a boat of this size and sail plan configuration. With this rig and hull form the CE for the storm jib needs to remain quite far forward in order to avoid massive and perhaps uncontrollable weather helm. Also whatever else happens, in the kinds of conditions that would require a storm jib the forestay will need to be stripped of its headsail because a boat like the Cal 34 will take knockdowns off of the windage of the rolled up sail alone. At that point he is much better off using a strapped on storm jib than trying to rig a jibstay.
cal 34 - double headsail modification
The primary purpose of an inner forestay is in fact to fly the storm jib whose use would of course be above 30 knots. Being in the way is not as issue as you don''t leave the inner forestay rigged, you keep it back at the mast unless you anticipate an immediate need to use it.
Hopefully tgeorgeson can clarify what problem he wants to solve, but a removeable inner forestay is an effective sail plan for a storm jib.
cal 34 - double headsail modification
"I''m guessing but - is what you want to deal with here is providing for an effecient, easy to use low sail-area setup for offshore use in high winds?" That would be nice but that is not what he is descibing. He is describing and efficient sail plan that will be harder to use in light, moderate and heavier conditions. In a sail plan like the Cal 34 adding an jibstay (the inner most stay when there is also a headstay) on which a small jib can be set really will create an object that will in the way major league and will be too small to use in winds much below 30 or so knots and too big to be a good storm jib. If he goes the route he descibed or even if he goes the route you suggest on this particular model there is a lot more to engineer than the stay attachment.
cal 34 - double headsail modification
I''m guessing but - is what you want to deal with here is providing for an effecient, easy to use low sail-area setup for offshore use in high winds? That would be provided by installing an inner forestay on which a small jib or storm jib can be set. IF that''s where you want to go, you''d need to get some one to engineer an attachment point and reinforcement for the inner stay''s foredeck connection.
If this ain''t it, then beats me...
Good luck.

Green Bay Picks Up Key Road Win at Marquette
By Justin Grones
MILWAUKEE, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Trailing 26-23 at the half, the Green Bay women's basketball team (6-2) put on a defensive display in the second half to defeat Marquette (4-4) 55-46 on the road on Saturday. The Phoenix forced 17 Marquette turnovers in the second half en route to improving to 31-8 all-time against the Golden Eagles.
"It was a tale of two halves for us, I really felt we looked unglued in the first half," head coach Kevin Borseth said. "We gathered ourselves in the second half and played extremely well on the defensive side of things. Our defense today was probably as good as it's ever been, it really got us going."
Green Bay opened the game on a 9-1 run, sparked by an Adrian Ritchie (De Pere, Wis.) three and a transition layup by Breannah Ranger (Skokie, Ill.), forcing Marquette to call a timeout. The Golden Eagles responded with an 11-3 run to tie things up with 10:33 remaining in the half, and eventually took the lead on an 11-2 run late in the opening frame.
Marquette led by as many as seven before Kaili Lukan (Barrie, Ontario, Canada) grabbed her first of a game-high six steals and laid it in on the other end. Older sister Megan Lukan (Barrie, Ontario, Canada) found Ranger in transition seconds later to cut Marquette's lead to three going into the half.
Building on its 4-0 run at the end of the first half, Green Bay came out of the locker room with Stephanie Sension (Hopkins, Minn.) grabbing a steal and laying it in on the other end to regain the lead at 27-26. Ritchie intercepted Marquette's ensuing inbounds pass and drew the shooting foul, where she hit one of two. Megan Lukan grabbed one of her five steals on the day on Marquette's next possession and found Sension for the finish.
Trailing 34-32 with 13:13 remaining, the Phoenix went on a 14-2 run over the next nine minutes to grab a 46-36 lead, forcing eight Marquette turnovers in the process and putting the game out of reach.
Marquette scored five points late in the game, but the Phoenix held on to grab its first win at the Al McGuire Center in program history while improving to 6-2 overall. Ritchie led Green Bay with 17 points while Sension pitched in 14. Kaili Lukan had career highs in both points and rebounds with six each, while older sister Megan had five assists and five steals. Lydia Bauer (Lake Zurich, Ill.) had a game-high 10 rebounds.
"We really worked as a team on defense, and it makes it easier to get those steals when you do that," Kaili Lukan said. "Megan and I were brought up the same. We both work very hard defensively and know what we have to do."
Sarina Simmons led Marquette with 10 points and three steals, while Katherine Plouffe had nine points and five rebounds.
The Phoenix will have the next nine days off before returning to action at home against North Dakota State on Dec. 18. It will be just the third time Green Bay has played at home this season. The Phoenix will remain at home to host nonconference rival Wisconsin on Dec. 23.

The Penguins have stood by their "charley horse" evaluation, but there clearly is something more severe.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by det2atl, Jun 19, 2010.
The refs whistles are annoying as well...
Summers: Just when I figure he's a keeper, he comes up waaaay short. Maybe he's trying too hard? Out of position? Monroe: He has a lot of growing to do but that's not a revelation. Looking decent against GS's prospects. Daye: Point forward? I trust him more than White and the other guards are there for filler. White: Anyone see PG material? I don't. Maybe they can force it into him. His handle is ok. body control is very good.
Hey, Slip what do you think about Koshwal? Looks like a big body and very active on D in the paint and on the boards.
Great pass Monroe feeding JJ on a short clock, for a reverse layup. Monroe is the kind of guy who can help a team like ours score another 2 or 4 PPG. And that might be worth 5 wins.
lol, I don't mind Mchale actually. I wouldn't want him full time though. Monroe just had a nice backdoor pass to JJ for a layup. Summers is hoopin' today as well. Looking good. We can use some catch and shoot long range guys like him and White I think.
Koshwal looks good today but he was outplayed yesterday by kruz.
He's made a couple of those today. If he can get his teammates 3-4 bunnies a game it would make life a heck of a lot easier and then he'd be able to average 4-5 assists per game. He looks tentative and passive defensively. Maybe it's my design, but I'd like to see him going more inside and use his size. White is on the wrong team. He'd be great on Warriors or another running team. Not sure how he'd fit in with Pistons' half-court sets. Commentators are just in love with Summers. But if he can knock his shots down, he'd be valuable on the team with his size. And who is this Sosa guy? A couple of good looking plays including passing and finishing at the rim.
Summers looks like what we wanted Jarvis Hayes to be.
Monroe and Koshwal look good together
Just after you asked that Mac strung or so impressive plays in a row. He's got good Free throw mechanics. His game is what we need but I don't know if he distinguishes himself enough. He would be cheap though.
We're playing racehorse BB, and it looks like we've got guys adept at that. Monroe has been sprinting up and down the court, as has that Koshwal guy.
John Thompson is great. "They can all develop a helluva-lot"
for a shooter, Daye's freethrow mechanics aren't that good. Too many moving parts. Not always coordinated.
Papa John watching over his boys. John T is a legend. White is not a PG, however that Sosa fella is a sweet passer and can push the ball. Monroe better in second half. He needs to build strength other wise playing the C position, he will constantly be pushed off the the block day in and day out. Monroe looking better tonight, running the floor like a gazelle. Needs to get to the free throw line, not one free throw in either game attack the basket big fella. I told you guys that Derek Caracter is the truth. Well, the Lakers got them a good one. Caracter played with my nephew at UTEP, I took my nephew Julyan and Caracter to dinner after their game with Marshall back in February. Caracter is a good kid who is on a mission. He can eat too, set me back $56.00 at Roadhouse Restaurant. He has lost a lot of weight since then though.
Armygirl, you gotta stick to the buffet when you take the boys out to dinner :P carachter was a man among boys yesterday.
Monroe looks ugly when he tries to score.
You are defintely right about that. Last year it was my nephew and Randy Culpepper, for a little guy, he can eat also. He had two Admiral Platters at Red Lobster. That's what I get when I tell these guys to roder whatever they want, this is right after they finish their game. Not good.
... down low. He looks MUCH more confortable at the top of the key. He can't jump, but he's pretty quick and has good footwork. I just don't think he's going to be a pound -it-in sort of player. It's be great if he was, but he'll need some serious weight lifting to get that game down. That's the area where Cousins has a huge advantage over him. I'm really looking forward to the game on Monday. On a side note, Summers looked terrific as did Daye, JJ was being JJ. Good game for Detroit.
White looks like Wade when he rises up off the dribble to fire off a jumper. While he's not going to run an NBA offense this year, he's got the handle, passing ability and scoring ability to be a bona fide triple threat. Our Big guys, Koshwal included, make very good outlet passes and Daye, White and Monroe seem to have good open court prowess. Golden State had like One guy and we out matched them making our big guys look good. This summer league team has a LOT of versatility but not a lot of toughness. It would have been good to see Udoh in the mix.
Interesting what Monroe brings in the form of a low-post game - a guy not afraid of contact, but not strong enough to contribute there yet. He needs to get to work on his legs and creating some explosion to finish, as the announcers were pointing out. That lefty jump hook of his has some potential, but he's going to have to develop more finesse down there, as simply bulldozing through bigs is not going to work at the NBA level. Daye, however, was simply better than everyone else on the court. Like Monroe he needs to get stronger - better to finish down in the paint - but he handles like a 1 and his line tonight was solid across the board: 20 points, 5 boards, 4 assists, and 3 blocks. I like what I saw from those two, and of course Jerebko is Jerebko. Summers has been a scorer, and has a future as a slashing 4, but not as much more than a role-player. Nonetheless, I'm liking what I'm seeing so far this summer from their core, and it bodes well for the future.

Fox's Chris Wallace Muddles Libyan Geography
Blog ››› ››› TERRY KREPEL
Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace repeatedly pressed senior Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod to explain why requests for additional security for Libyan diplomats were not heeded. But Wallace failed to clarify that the requests for additional security were focused on the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli, not the consulate in Benghazi that was the target of a terrorist attack.
On the October 14 edition of Fox News Sunday, Wallace started his interview with Axelrod by discussing the deaths of the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other Americans in an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi and airing a statement made by Vice President Joe Biden in the October 11 vice-presidential debate that "we did not know they wanted more security there." Wallace then said to Axelrod: "Just the day before, several State Department officials testified under oath that there were repeated requests for more security that were rejected. What is the vice president talking about?" Wallace later asked Axelrod, "Let me ask you directly: Does the president take personal responsibility for the fact that repeated requests for more security were made and were rejected, and that that may have contributed to the death of those four Americans? Does he take personal responsibility for that?"
But Wallace failed to explain that the requests for extra security were focused on the embassy in Tripoli, not the consulate in Benghazi, and that State Department officials believe that even if the requests had been granted, they would likely not have changed what happened in Benghazi, because they would have been ill-equipped to respond to the large scale of the assault. As The New York Times reported:
In the weeks leading up to the attack last month on the American diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, that killed Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans, diplomats on the ground sounded increasingly urgent alarms. In a stream of diplomatic cables, embassy security officers warned their superiors at the State Department of a worsening threat from Islamic extremists, and requested that the teams of military personnel and State Department security guards who were already on duty be kept in service.
The requests were denied, but they were largely focused on extending the tours of security guards at the American Embassy in Tripoli -- not at the diplomatic compound in Benghazi, 400 miles away. And State Department officials testified this week during a hearing by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that extending the tour of additional guards -- a 16-member military security team -- through mid-September would not have changed the bloody outcome because they were based in Tripoli, not Benghazi.
While it is unclear what impact a handful of highly trained additional guards might have had in Benghazi were they able to deploy there, some State Department officials said it would probably not have made any difference in blunting the Sept. 11 assault from several dozen heavily armed militants.
"An attack of that kind of lethality, we're never going to have enough guns," Patrick F. Kennedy, under secretary of state for management, said at Wednesday's hearing. "We are not an armed camp ready to fight it out."
Wallace is muddling facts and geography by overlooking that the security was targeted for the Tripoli embassy, not a consulate hundreds of miles away.

I have just moved up to Calgary from Louisiana and I am searching for a way to do some waterfowl hunting this season. I went to Bass Pro Shops and got my WIN card but still need to get all the other licenses.
Does anyone have tips on where I need to go to get all the other licsences and most importantly where I can go to hunt near Calgary?
Are there any local waterfowl hunting groups I could join to get in with a few guys who are familiar with the land and flyways around Calgary.
Thanks, Jourdan D.

There have been some big changes to DragonCon this year. I just received info from my staff contact, and here are the big changes so far.
1) Registration is being moved to the Sheraton this year.
2) All Star Wars fan tracks along with Star Trek and a few others are being moved to the Sheraton this year.
3) Fan tables have been split between the Hyatt and Sheraton.
So it looks like people are going to be hoofing it quite a bit this year.

Yanks up 7-2. That was fast.
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.
"You only have to bat a thousand in two things; flying and heart transplants. Everything else you can go 4-for-5."

Reds may only play 3 home games before the World Series.
Rolen flies out to right.
Guillermo Mota in to pitch
Bochy channeling his inner La Russa
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
I think the WestCoast trips are over for this year. Detroit and Washington look to be the spots.

let me start by stating that i am not making 3D printed side panels, i don't have a 3D printer, and i wouldn't know where to start to make the models needed to print them anyway. this is just an idea for anyone that would like to run with it.
here goes: 3D printed his side panels would be a great alternative for people trying to finish their HIC build and save a little. they probably wouldn't be as accurate as resin copies, but they could be printed with most of the greeblies already attached since most builders paint the entire panel one base color. if someone printed them with the greebs and wanted to make them available, you could print them with numbers on the underside so the buyer would know where each panel is supposed to go.
so if anyone likes this idea, has the modelling skills, and access to a 3D printer, i encourage you to take this idea and make it happen. just be sure to let me know if you do, because i need some side panels for my build.

If you were going to be watched by millions of viewers, you'd probably drop a few bucks on some nice furniture for your place. Well, maybe you ARE being watched. Maybe you're the break-out character of the hottest show the world has ever seen! Yeah, makes you think, doesn't it? Maybe it's time to upgrade to this stuff.

When the actor James Gandolfini died recently, TV watchers around the world mourned the simultaneous passing of one of the best-named characters of all time.
Sure, Tony Soprano was so much more than his name. The character was both rough and smooth. Affable and violent. Powerful and weak. But don't all those qualities also describe that name?
It's not every day you stumble upon a brilliantly named TV character. I'll tell you why in one word: legal.

Arsenal Ladies can today confirm that Katie Chapman is leaving the Club in February to join US side Chicago Red Stars, in line with start of the second Women's Professional Soccer league in April 2010.
Chapman (27) first featured for Arsenal Ladies in three years ago in 2006, joining the Gunners from Charlton Athletic.

Katie will continue playing for Arsenal Ladies until mid-February, before moving to Chicago.
Everyone at Arsenal Football Club wishes Katie the best of luck for her future with Chicago Red Stars and would like to thank her for her huge contribution towards Arsenal Ladies over the past three years.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

I have a collection of Minolta MD X-Rokker lenses. I'm beginning to miss using them and have read about several people who have made custom adapters for MD mounts to the Canon EOS mounts. They filed down part of the spacer on the back of the MD X-Rokker lenses and then used it with an M42 to EOS adapter which is available for very cheap online. By screwing holes into the EOS adapter and sttaching it to the MD lens it worked perfectly, with more fine-tuning by filing down the space so It could focus to infinity.
I really don't mind losing auto-focus and auto-aperature as my XT is semmingly fixated on manual mode and I rarely use the autofocus.
I was curious if any of you have tried anything like this before as I am a little hesitant to take a file to the spacer on the back of the lenses.

I like to shred the sheets and add some to my soup and sometimes to my salads. It has a seaweed flavor but I like that flavor.

I was extremely pleased with the results. I received exactly what I expected and at the quality I expected. The price was reasonable also. Delivery was a bit slow, it shipped the day after my order was placed on a Sat and was only delivered on a Friday. However, I see this as a fault with the delivery method and not iHerb. I would highly recommend.

High Quality NORI
Posted by jayzou on Apr 07, 2012 | Verified Purchase
As a seaweed aficionado for years, I have tried various types of nori and I can tell you that this is quality stuff. I just wish they sold these in larger quantities rather than just 10 sheets per pack. Another con I had was that they don't come toasted and ready for use, you have to toast them yourself.
Good, but...

Good product, but if you get the larger package, the bag has a built-in fresh zip seal whereas this one does not.
maybe user error

I tried preparing these and wasn't happy with the flavor - will need to experiment with diff oils and seasonings...

To meet with a nation's president is a great honor. This is an honor 14 students from the University of St. Thomas Center for International Studies experienced when they met with Taiwan's president, Mr. Ma Ying-jeou on Jan. 9 in recognition of the successful educational and cultural exchanges between UST and Taiwan. The UST students were led by the Center director, Dr. Hans Stockton, an East Asia expert and long-time Taiwan specialist who has led such delegations since 2007 as part of a course he teaches on contemporary Taiwan.
The group was joined by more than 50 Taiwanese alumni of the Center's annual summer program of American and Global Studies and Don Wang, a member of the University's Board of Directors. The AGSC is a partnership between the Center and the Overseas Community Affairs Commission in Taipei that introduces Taiwan university students to American history, culture and foreign policy.
After greeting each student individually, Ma praised the efforts of Dr. Stockton at promoting US-Taiwan economic, cultural and educational ties and emphasized the importance of student exchange for building people-to-people bridges.
"To be greeted by a sitting head of state is a great honor for my students and wonderful recognition of the University of St. Thomas," Stockton said. "To have an hour of President Ma's time is testament to the distinction of the Center and more than three decades of hard work by our faculty, staff, students, and community friends.
Abigail Kvinge, a junior environmental studies major, was struck by how open and hospitable the Taiwan people were during the two-week stay.
"I never felt out of place because everyone I encountered was so welcoming," Kvinge said.
Dr. Stockton delivered greetings from University of St. Thomas president, Dr. Robert Ivany, and Houston Mayor Annise Parker. Stockton emphasized the importance of educational exchanges for building human relationships and developing the human person. He went on to point out that the undergirding moral code in Confucian societies parallels that in Judeo-Christian societies and that intense immersion programs help students understand that our similarities are as prominent as our differences. During the student delegation visit to Taiwan, students called upon officials in several central government ministries, think tanks and political parties. In addition students were introduced to historical and cultural sites in Taipei, Tainan and Kaohsiung.
Johnny Halliburton, a senior international studies major on his fourth trip to Taiwan, was most impressed by a luncheon hosted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"I sat next to an official who had just recently served as Taiwan's liaison to the American Congress," Halliburton said. "It was great to hear firsthand stories of how Washington, D.C.-Taipei relations are maintained."
Each student received generous scholarship support from the Center's friends in the Taiwanese-American community. The Center and the University are grateful for this continued support of the Taiwan Study Abroad Program.
Jaqueline DeLeon, a senior international studies and development major understands the importance of such gifts.
"Without this support, many students would not be able to afford to participate," DeLeon said. "Also, the community sponsors play an important role in providing our group access to high level decision-makers."
In addition to political and social visits, the students also enjoyed cultural events, such as celebrating New Years Eve in Taipei. It was then that Danielle Gohdes, a junior international development major, was struck by the orderly nature of a city as populated as Taipei.
"The mass transportation was incredibly efficient, clean, and the people were very respectful to each other," Gohdes said. "During New Year's Eve, more than one million people gathered at Taipei 101 for a fireworks display. Within two hours after midnight, all one million people had disbursed via mass transportation." The Center for International Studies at UST, founded in 1981, is a pioneering program in international studies in the American southwest and the oldest program of its type in the state of Texas. The Center provides majors in international studies and international development, manages the UST Study Abroad Program, hosts the Social Entrepreneurship Program and Distinguished Diplomat Lecture, and conducts significant local and international outreach.

The apartment has one bedroom with a large comfortable bed for two and a living room with a large couch that fits two persons,modern and fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with a shower, spacious dining room and a terrace (photo coming soon), situated on the ground floor. The air conditioning and Wi-fi is free.
The apartment is fully equipped with evertything you'll need on your vacation and everything is free to use.
There is another appartment in the facility, on the 1st floor. The frendly hosts are always available and ready to help with anything you need :)
If you're looking for a place to relax, far away from the city crowd and noise, then you've come to the right place. Korcula has a rich history and a beautiful nature:
-The town of Korcula (50km away) is known as a birth place of famous Marco Polo.
-the archaeological site ''Big Cave'' or ''Vela Spila'', in Vela Luka
-the beach on the small island of Proizd near Vela Luka was chosen by the Croatian Tourist Board for the most beautiful beach of Croatia in 2007
-one day trip to Dubrovnik (about 150km) is also easy to arrange
there are many more things and places to see, and as your host, I'll be happy to reccomend and show you where to go :)
Vela Luka is a small town, with no public transit because everything you need is in walking distance. However, there is a lot to see on the whole island, so a car is the best way to comute. If you don't travel by car, renting a scooter is also great and cheap option.
House rulesrelax, enjoy and try not to break anything :)

Reviews for this host's other properties
We only had a short stay (1 night) in the apartment, so it's difficult to give a detailed review:
Positives: The apartment is only a short drive (4 min) away from the port (in case you want to take the ferry). The beautiful beach of Proizd is also nearby...
However some things can be improved:
- No bath towels were provided, only hand towels (all the other apartments we booked in Croatia provided bath as well as hand towels).
- There were a number of mosquitoes which bothered us through the night - there's probably not much that can be done about this, but it would have still been nice to get a warning in advance so that we could have carried some anti-mosquito sprays or so. We did not have this issue of mosquitoes anywhere else in Croatia...
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

Following a smashing post Hurricane Sandy recovery in 2013, Take Two returned this year with an exciting roster of films showcasing a feisty new generation of artists exploring the frontiers of artistry and technology. These include International films from Israel, Denmark, China, India and many other countries.
We also have a special relationship with a number of art and film schools in New York City, which has given us access to many generations of talented and creative filmmakers.
Our venue, Anthology Film Archives, is a pioneering film museum in a historic building that's been renovated to include a 187-seat theater with a superb sound system. There will be two evening shows each day. Filmmakers from around the world will be attending the festival and Q&A sessions moderated by prominent film figures.
Our award, the Manny, a disc shaped replica of a NYC manhole cover is awarded to the best filmmakers and takes the lid off of independent film.
Take Two is a product of Salon Ciel, an art gallery that was founded eight years ago by Asher Bar Lev & David Rheingold. In April of 2013 Take Two staged its second film festival. Its 2nd annual festival was noted by the New York Times, Washington Square News, Westview and many other papers.
Members of the press are given free admission after sending RSVP to firstname.lastname@example.com. We look forward to having you at Take Two. Our film program will soon appear on TakeTwoFilmFestival.com, save the date!
