Chris Breen: This past year's 12th round pick appears to have the potential to be a special hitter in due time, thanks in large part to his great bat speed and raw plus power potential. Defensively, however, it's not clear if Breen can or will make the permanent move to the outfield after being drafted as a catcher. Where he eventually fits positionally is a wait and see proposition for the time being but the power potential alone makes him a 'sleeper' at any position.
Jake Cave: Like Breen, Cave's offensive ceiling is vast enough that he could eventually fit into the 'Highest Ceiling' category down the road. Unlike Breen though, Cave hasn't seen any playing time yet at the professional level [just two plate appearances in two seasons] and there's no question Cave can handle the defensive duties in the outfield. He's a 'sleeper' for sure, at least on the national radar.
Ben Gamel: The 2010 tenth round pick has everything in place to safely already project as a potential big league reserve outfielder; good speed, great defense, and advanced hitting ability. He hasn't shown the requisite power needed in games, however, to be a sure-fire bet as a big league corner guy and that has let him fly under the radar so far. He has displayed that kind of power in batting practice though so if he could transfer some of that into game production then he could be a super 'sleeper'.
Mikeson Oliberto: A low dollar sign as a then soon to be 20-year old back in 2010, this ultra toolsy Dominican outfielder has some extensive long-term potential. He has above average speed, above average power potential, his defense is borderline plus, and despite his advanced age and lack of experience he shows a good feel for hitting overall. Now 22 and still not in the long-season leagues, he is quite the big league longshot but the entire package makes him quite the 'sleeper' too.

Rob Refsnyder: In Breen-like fashion, Refsnyder, the Yankees' 5th round pick in 2012, is in the midst of a potential position change. The College Word Series' Most Outstanding Player has played almost exclusively in the outfield throughout his career but is now beginning to transition to second base where the bat would play better. Even if he doesn't stick there though, he has the kind of hitting ability and run producing ways that could, despite a lack of plus power, make him a 'sleeper' in the outfield too.
Need To Make Their Move
Yeicok Calderon: The former 2008 International signing has great power potential. In fact he was among the Gulf Coast League leaders in home runs last season with eight. However, he is about to enter his fifth minor league season and the 21-year old has yet to get out of the rookie league level. Throw in some suspect defense in the outfield, he really needs to pick things up very soon.
Kelvin De Leon: The Dominican native is a basically a right-handed hitting version of Calderon in that he has massive power potential but the overall hitting ability has been inconsistent at best. He too is a below average defensive outfielder despite having some tools and the 22-year old is about to enter his sixth minor league season, and he hit a career low .215 last season. He is running out of time.
|THE TIME HAS COME: Leonora has tools but it's time to start producing consistently. (Photo: Patrick Teale/PinstripesPlus.com)
Ericson Leonora: The Venezuelan native might be the biggest 'sleeper' in this category because he is still just only 20 years old and will remain so for essentially the entire 2013 season. However, he spent three seasons in the Dominican Summer League [mostly due to injury, partly due to being tried out at second base] and now he is about to enter his fifth minor league season, and still hasn't hit A-ball. He has power, speed, pitch recognition, etc, but he has to start moving quickly soon to be a prospect factor going forward.
Daniel Lopez: Perhaps a potential 'sleeper' too because of his plus speed-plus defense combination, the Dominican native also shows some decent hitting ability for a guy who started playing baseball later in life. Still, the soon to be 21-year old hit just .237 for Staten Island last season and hasn't hit the A-ball level, and he's about to enter his fifth minor league season. He is in need of a breakout season in 2013.
Ronnier Mustelier: The Cuban native has squeezed just about every ounce of his talent into the utmost production, hitting a combined .314 with 45 extra-base hits between Double-A Trenton and Triple-A Scranton in 2012. He can play some infield too, although defensively he's better suited for left field. He doesn't have the great home run power needed to be a corner guy for a team like the Yankees nor the great defense either, but the 28-year old sure can hit. He needs to seize his opportunity with the big league club in 2013, a roster in desperate need of right-handed hitting, or he'll quickly become an organizational afterthought.
Rob Segedin: The former third round pick in 2010 picked an odd time to experiment with his swing last year when he got to Double-A and it's a big reason he hit just .188 in 48 games for the Double-A Trenton Thunder. He just turned 24 years old and still has some time on his side, but there's a quartet of high ceiling outfielders coming up right behind him in the form of Mason Williams, Slade Heathcott, Tyler Austin, and Ramon Flores, all of whom will hit Double-A in 2013. The time is now to get productive once again.
Eduardo Sosa: The Venezuelan native is proof positive that tools alone will not get it done at the professional level. Blessed with plus speed, plus bat speed, great defensive abilities, and solid power for a leadoff type, his shy demeanor and resulting lack of aggressiveness have taken its toll on his production. The soon to be 22-year old will be entering his all-important sixth minor league season in 2013 and needs a breakout year in a big way to turn around his fading prospect status.
The Jury Is Still Out
Taylor Dugas: The all-time University of Alabama hits leader is a phenomenal hitter for average, the kind that could and really should walk more than he strikes out in any given year. A solid defensive outfielder too, the problem is his speed is average at best and his power potential is minimal. He'll have to hit his way up through the minor leagues to carve himself out a potential reserve role and he might be able to do just that.
Nathan Mikolas: The general consensus in the scouting community is that last year's third round pick not only has 'sleeper' written all over him but one of the higher ceilings too. Most firmly believe he's going to hit and hit for power, but with below average speed and just serviceable defense, he's going to have to hit his way up through the ranks and he simply looked overmatched in his debut season last year [.149, one extra-base hit in 31 games]. He just turned 19 years old though in late December so the jury is still out on his long-term potential.
Ravel Santana: When it comes to pure talent and tools, Santana is right up there with the 'Highest Ceiling' guys in the entire organization. All of his tools grade out as average [hit tool] to plus [speed, defense, power] and then to even plus-plus [arm strength]. However, he is still finding his way back from a gruesome ankle injury at the end of the 2011 season, an injury that has taken similar players at least two years to fully recover from, so for now the jury is still out on how he'll respond production-wise in the next year or so.

Boston Mobster James "Whitey" Bulger Sentenced
(Boston, MA) -- Convicted Boston mobster James "Whitey" Bulger has been sentenced to two consecutive life in prison terms plus five years. He was convicted in August for several murders, as well as extortion, money-laundering and weapons charges. U.S. District Court Judge Denise Casper also ordered $19.5 million in restitution to the families of his victims. The judge told Bulger the "scope, the callousness, the depravity of your crimes is almost unfathomable."
The 84-year-old Bulger was captured in Santa Monica, California in 2011, after 16-years in hiding. The federal Bureau of Prisons will determine where Bulger will be sent to serve out his sentence. He has been held at the Plymouth House of Correction.

The Financial reporting in the mining industry (FRIM) 2012 edition looks at how IFRS is applied in practice by mining companies, identifying unique issues for the industry. In this edition we include a number of examples to demonstrate how companies are responding to the various accounting challenges along the value chain.
Of course, it is not just IFRSs that are constantly evolving but also the operational issues faced by mining companies with the heavy demand for capital and risks faced by the industry driving more cooperative working relationships. We look at some of main developments in this context with a selection of reporting topics that are of most practical relevance to mining companies' activities.
The new standard on joint arrangements will be an area of focus for companies in the mining sector. The classification of the joint arrangement determines the subsequent accounting, and we consider some of the challenges introduced by the new standard in determining the type of joint arrangement which exists. We also look at the new Interpretation on production stripping costs and practical issues associated with its implementation.
FRIM is written for executives and financial managers in this sector; investors and other users of mining industry financial statements; and accounting bodies, standard-setting agencies and governments around the world.
The new sections on joint arrangements and stripping costs will be of particular interest to our clients as they apply the new requirements, and teams should engage with their contacts to see what guidance they can provide.
This publication identifies the issues that are unique to the mining industry and includes a number of real life examples to demonstrate how companies are responding to the various accounting challenges along the value chain.

RIALTO -- Police late Tuesday surrounded a home in a north city neighborhood attempting to deal with a barricaded man who might be armed.
It was the fourth time that day that police were called to the upscale neighborhood with many manicured lawns in the 2500 block of Amberwood Avenue.
As of 9:30 p.m., the homeowner remained barricaded in the house surrounded by the Inland Valley SWAT.
"The first three times we were called out was for loud music coming from the home," said Rialto police spokesman Capt. Randy DeAnda. "The fourth time, around 3:15 p.m., was because a neighbor called and said the homeowner was walking around the neighborhood with a rifle."
More than a dozen residents were evacuated and the SWAT was deployed after the homeowner, Richard Bright, 46, barricaded himself in his home.
"When officers arrived the rifle was found lying in his driveway," DeAnda said. "But we don't know what he has in the home."
DeAnda said he was unaware of what type of rifle Bright had.
Bright lives alone in the home.
Residents in the neighborhood said that Bright has some issues that need to be dealt with.
One neighbor who wishes to remain anonymous due to fear of retaliation, said that Bright walks around in the early morning hours wearing a hoodie type sweatshirt and sunglasses pulling on door handles of neighborhood vehicles.
"I've seen him walk up to my door and just stand there," said the neighbor. "He doesn't say a word, he just stares at you and turns around and walks away."
Law enforcement is aware of Bright's strange behaviors.
"We believe he has some sort of psychiatric issues," DeAnda said. "But we've established contact with him over the phone and are doing everything in our power to end this peacefully."

My source is "ask your genealogy friends". Sounds simple, but you never know who might have their own books on a topic. This link happens to go to Cyndi's List which is always an excellent starting point for genealogical research.

A9 TV; Gaziantep olay TV, 19 April 2011
Their Prophet said to them, 'The sign of his kingship is that the Ark will come to you, containing serenity from your Lord and certain relics left by the families of Moses and Aaron. It will be borne by angels. There is a sign for you in that if you are believers.' (Surat al-Baqara, 248)
What is evidence? It is something that is seen. What is certain evidence? Irrefutable proof. In other words, people will realize how old it is, that it is 3000 years old, and the Ark of the Covenant will be found in the time of Hazrat Mahdi (as). The Qur'an explicitly refers to that.
In the name of Allah, All-Merciful, Most Merciful,
he made it an on-going word among his descendants so that perhaps they might turn back.
The verse gives an abjad (numerological) value of 1999.
29- I let those people and their forefathers enjoy themselves until the truth came to them and a Messenger to make it clear.
Abjad calculation of this verse gives a date of 2015.
30- But when the truth came to them they said, 'This is magic and we reject it.'
The abjad value of this verse gives a date of 1990. That is most interesting, is it not? 1999, 2015 and the third verse 1990. That means they will stand against the Mahdi in 1999. They say they reject him. One of the most intense struggles against the way of the Mahdi was in 1990, insha'Allah.
33- Were it not that mankind might all become one community, We would have given those who reject the All-Merciful silver roofs to their houses and silver stairways to ascend.
Allah says He would have bestowed great abundance. But terrible irreligion prevailed, He says. That is why He brought about the economic crisis. Almighty Allah says that people go astray when they enjoy economic well-being.
34- and silver doors to their houses and silver couches on which to recline,
35- and gold ornaments. All that is merely the trappings of the life of this world. But the hereafter with your Lord is for those who have fear.
Allah says it is easy for Him. He says He could have made them all wealthy had He wished. But they became perverse, so He did not give it to them. Economic difficulties and troubles draw one closer to Allah.
36- If someone shuts his eyes to the remembrance of the All-Merciful, We assign him a satan who becomes his bosom friend –
Satan is all over them. He says they are constantly under the influence of satan. If they do not remember the names of Allah, He says.
37- they debar them from the path, yet they still think they are guided –
They put their turbans and skull caps on. They imagine they are truly on the path to happiness. But satan is all over them. They have become the captives of satan. And Allah says that they are unaware of it. For example, they do not espouse Islamic Union nor want the oppression of Muslims to be lifted. They are unaware of what the situation is

Few chefs are as committed to Sunshine Coast produce as David Rayner. The word "local" is stamped all over his menu, describing everything from organic kale to barbecued chicken. The region is clearly the hero of the show at this relaxed riverside eatery, with culinary trickery renounced to let the ingredients shine in exceedingly generous portions. Consider entrées such as super-sweet spanner crab tossed with refreshingly tart ruby grapefruit, daikon and coconut and served on betel leaves, or main courses such as charry-edged, half barbecued chicken humming with chilli in a lime, shallot and tarragon dressing. Simple desserts might include Yandina figs with a delicate honey mousse. Service is informed, personable and in keeping with the stunning location, overlooking waters whipped by cooling breezes. With a glass of wine from the food-friendly, international list, it's a sublime spot to while away an afternoon or evening.

First thing: I have to boot severel times the Live CD until i can access Backtrack. Often I've got only the boot screen after select wich options i like to use.
Second thing: After i gained access to Backtrack and have loaded the KDE with startx i can run the install.sh
When the things starts like parted , the list of partitions in parted is empty.
After several reboots i have all partioions in parted.
Third thing: After i have selected the last Next / finish, the installer run correctly until 90%! I don't know why but it terminates and makes an restart without any anounce! Grub is destroyed, cant access anything.
Only way to get Back my System is to install Ubuntu again.
I hope anyone can help me...

hacking, November 3rd 2011
Docstring processors are thirteen to a dozen, and those derived from SBCL's docstrings.lisp are a legion of their own.
I've been guilty of copying SBCL's docstrings.lisp to various projects myself, hand tweaking it to suit their needs... till finally I found myself with a half a dozen divergent copies. Eugh.
So, SB-TEXINFO was born: it should contain tweaks from all my copies, merged back on top of SBCL's upstream copy.
I plan to merge it back to SBCL as a contrib once I'm happy with it, but the schedule is still open on that.

Dysarthria - care
Dysarthria is a condition that occurs when there are problems with the muscles that help you talk. Most times, dysarthria occurs:
- As a result of brain damage after a stroke, head injury, or brain cancer
- When there is damage to the nerves of the muscles that help you talk
- When there is an illness of the nervous system, such as myasthenia gravis
Tips for Communicating Better
Some simple changes in the way you talk with a person who has dysarthria can make a difference.
- Turn off the radio or TV.
- Move to a quieter room if needed.
- Make sure lighting in the room is good.
- Sit close enough so that you and the person who has dysarthria can use visual cues.
- Make eye contact with each other.
The person who has dysarthria and their family may need to learn different ways of communicating. Some of these are:
- Using hand gestures
- Writing by hand what you are saying
- Using a computer to type out the conversation
- Using alphabet boards, if muscles used for writing and typing are also affected
If you do not understand the patient, do not just agree with them. Ask them to speak again. Tell them what you think they said and ask them to repeat it. Ask the person to say it in a different way. Ask them to slow down so that you can make out their words, if needed.
Listen carefully and allow the person to finish. Be patient. Make eye contact with them before speaking, if possible. Give positive feedback for their effort.
Ask questions in a way that they can answer you with a simple "yes" or "no."
Suggestions for a patient with dysarthria:
- Try to speak slowly.
- Use short phrases.
- Pause between your sentences to make sure the person listening to you understands.
- Use hand gestures.
- Use pencil and paper or a computer to write out what you are trying to say, if needed.

Roseville Fire Department responds to three separate grass fires
Contact :
Jeff Carman, Assistant Fire Chief (916) 764-1673
The Roseville Fire Department responded to three separate grass fires this afternoon, the first two of which started within 10 minutes of each other. No injuries were reported and no structures were damaged in any of the fires. Crews from Roseville Fire and neighboring fire departments contained all three fires within half an hour.
The first grass fire began at approximately 2 p.m. by Linda Creek near the intersection of Cirby Way and Rocky Ridge Drive. Due to its rapid rate of speed, 7 fire engines, 28 fire personnel and a helicopter from Sacramento Metro Fire responded to the 3-acre fire.
The second vegetation fire began at approximately 2:10 p.m. near Sculpture Park located near the intersection Eureka Road and N. Sunrise Ave. and was contained to one-half acre.
Both of these fires were contained by 2:40 p.m
The third fire began at approximately 3:30 p.m. in undeveloped land near Fiddyment Road and Westhills Drive and burned 2 acres. Three engines and 10 fire personnel responded, containing the fire by 4 p.m.
All three fires are considered suspicious and are under investigation. Several neighboring fire agencies assisted in the fire fighting and fire response coverage in Roseville, including CalFire, Rocklin Fire, Sacramento Metro Fire and South Placer Fire.

By Melissa Rayworth Associated Press
Getting a family organized requires more than a few well-chosen New Year's resolutions.
Increasingly, homeowners are carving out a physical space — anything from a single kitchen cabinet to an entire spare room — that can function as a family information center and workstation.
In an effort to battle clutter and keep track of schedules, designer Brian Patrick Flynn helps clients kick the habit of spreading out items around their homes.
"These days, it's pretty much a given that families use their kitchen islands, dining tables and/or coffee tables as prime real estate for laptops, school papers, iPhones and mail," said Flynn, founder and editor of decordemon.com.
"When I'm designing entire homes, especially ones for young families, the first thing I focus on is locating a seldom-used corner, section or nook somewhere easily accessible to create a creative and organizational hub.
"This usually follows my tirade of, 'No more using the dining table or breakfast nook as a clutter station!'"
Flynn and two interior designers offer these tips on creating the perfect headquarters to wrangle homework assignments, invitations, permission slips, calendars and more.
What's needed
- A calendar (paper, digital or both) that the whole family can access.
- Accessible storage space for incoming mail, invitations and permission slips where things won't be forgotten.
- A message board (dry-erase white boards and/or corkboards are popular) where family members can post and share information.
- A labeled bin or section of corkboard space assigned to each family member.
- A power strip for charging electronic devices, with shelf or desk space to keep those items while charging.
Ideally, the space will include a work surface where kids can do homework and parents can handle tasks like filling out permission slips.
Many families include a laptop or desktop computer for homework or checking e-mail. If you have a computer handy, you're more likely to enter information digitally and eliminate paper clutter.
Where to put it
Flynn suggests using the "bonus room" that many newer homes have.
Atlanta designer Mallory Mathison has converted pantries or small closets into organizational hubs.
She removes the doors to open up the space, adds a deep shelf as a desktop. and puts shelves and a message board and calendar on the back wall.
HGTV designer Cortney Novogratz suggests families in smaller homes could choose one corner of the kitchen, since it's a room the entire family uses daily, and designate a single kitchen cabinet as the hub.
Line the cabinet door with the calendar and corkboard or dry-erase board and add small bins on the shelves for each family member.
A small laptop can be kept inside the cabinet and taken out for use at the kitchen table.
For additional storage, she suggests buying a rolling cart with labeled drawers where each child in the family can keep things like pending work or art supplies. This can be wheeled around the kitchen or other rooms as needed.
Furniture needed
In lieu of custom built-ins, Flynn suggests buying two kitchen cabinets from a big-box home improvement store, and two prefab bookcases. Stack the bookcases on top of the base cabinets. Mount them to the wall and add some basic molding to the front edges, creating "the look of custom built-ins, but for only a few hundred bucks."
He also suggests plundering the rest of your home in search of old furniture. In one home, he placed two old dressers next to each other, using their surfaces as a place to collect mail and pending paperwork.
He outfitted the dresser drawers with a hanging file system, then brought in an old table and chairs from a child's playroom.
And paint goes a long way in coordinating the pieces.
For limited spaces Mathison suggests searching estate sales (or your own attic) for one large piece of furniture like a wooden secretary, which has a desktop and a mix of open and closed storage.
Refinish it with several coats of glossy paint and, if necessary, drill holes in the back for power cords.
Make it work
Even the best system won't work unless you use it. Flynn says beautiful, bright colors can help draw you to your organizational space.
Kids will be proud to have their projects and tests posted alongside their artwork for added inspiration.
Plan the space carefully based on your needs: Do older kids need extra space for doing homework? Are you juggling lots of appointments and need to make your calendar the centerpiece?
Novogratz suggests hanging a family calendar and business calendar together so you can mark things on both, and kids can see when you'll be busy with work commitments.
If scheduling is key, post pending items like permission slips and invitations in a prominent spot or keep them in an in-box that you'll check regularly.

There was sad news yesterday coming from the Twins new home at Target Field. The Twins have ended their decade long relationship with Hormel, the Austin, MN based company that was the official supplier of Dome Dogs at the Metrodome. The news articles (Doggone:Dome Dogs out at Target Field) make it sound like it was a mutual breakup but in all breakups there is a "dumper" and a "dumpee". In this situation, it seems that the Twins wanted too much from Hormel so the Twins had to dump them and move on with their lives.
With this news there will be many other memories of fond hot dog eating that won't make the trip across downtown. The Hormel Dollar a Dog night was one of the best reasons to go watch a game on a Wednesday night. The other thing that will be sad to see go is the famous Hormel Row of Fame and the jingle that went along with it.
So one last time, sing along if you know the words.
Now that you are at the game
Are you in the Hormel Row of Fame?
If you're in a lucky seat
You'll win a Hormel hot dog treat
Great for lunch, great for dinner
You will be a wiener winner
In the Hormel Row of Fame!
Thank you Hormel for all of your memories at the HHH Metrodome. You will always be a wiener winner in my heart.

The Public Death of a Public Enemy
May 2, 2011
From the CBC Radio program "As it Happens:"
News of Osama Bin Laden's death last night brought Donna Marsh O'Connor sadness and a sense of loss.
That's an unusual reaction for anyone --- but especially for someone who lost a pregnant daughter in the September eleventh attacks nearly ten years ago, and could have had a grandchild by now.
Donna is now the spokesperson for September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, a group that aims to turn the grief of losing a loved one in the 2001 attacks into a catalyst for peace.
We reached her in Syracuse, New York.

101 THINGS TO DO WITH CDs and DVDs
www.greendisk.com is a great company that recycles technotrash. Worth checking out!
Pearl McCahill and Arinda Sykes have sent in the following suggestion -
www.discsfordogs.org - collect CDs for SPCA
Please note they only accept music/film cds dvds - not the AOL type.Arinda advises that you donate the CDs.. they cover the shipping and they sell them for $.50-$1.00..then they donate the money to the SPCA
I have found a charity who can make use of unwanted CDs - they make them into a variety of items and then sell them at their annual bazaar. If this is of interest please contact Mr. Brian LePas by email on email@example.com or by snail mail at 311, Hemlock Street, Nanaimo BC, Canada V9S 1Z4.
Does anyone know the best adhesive to use for sticking CD Roms?
In response to this I have received the following:-"In Minneapolis there is a yearly parade of art cars - old cars transformed into rolling masterpieces. One guy covers his car with CDs and uses the glue one would use for applying fake fingernails (the professional glue, not the kind in the drugstore kit). He says that nail glue was the most permanent adhesive he had found."
Thanks to Jennifer Wegiarz for this useful information as well as another suggestion for using CDs - not that I am suggesting you stick them all over your Dad's car!
Apparently the trick to cutting CDs is to warm them with a hair dryer and then use utility kitchen scissors.

I'd avoid melting or too much cutting. I do believe there are toxins involved.

We do not have many decks in the U.K. but this suggestion may be useful for preventing house martins from nest building on the outside of houses.
I have been taken to task with regards this suggestion. Terry Jones points out that these little birds travel thousands of miles from Africa, eat tons of insects and cause no harm. If the droppings bother you nail a piece of plastic at right angles to the wall beneath to catch them and wipe it off each year.
A really original suggestion received from Jayne Grant.
I am sure this could be adapted to treasure trails for adults etc. - thanks Jayne!
This offering comes with a Public Health warning
Get your own back on those annoying oncoming drivers with their multitude of foglamps blazing away at night. Remove the grill from the front of your car and string a couple of rows of CDs across the radiator using cable ties. When the 1000 watt beams strike the cds they will reflect back. Also acts as a cool accessory to replace those furry dice and winter protection for Land Rovers.
When I received this one I was very concerned about the road safety aspect as I don't want to be responsible for any accidents. I also wondered if they would not only cause excessive noise whilst travelling but whether they would prevent engines cooling adequately - I leave the decision to you.

CAUTION - I have received the following warning from Elliot Clayton regarding heating CDs in the oven
I was
reading about what to do with spare cds or cd roms, and one suggestion
involved putting them in the oven to melt them. This can be
dangerous because the silver dye is toxic. When the plastic melts
in the oven, there will be no protection for this layer of dye.
Be very careful though, they get very hot.
Make sure you ask first!

The electrical cable could be threaded up through the centre holes and the lamp fitting would fit in the top centre hole.

It has been brought to my attention by Cyn Richardson that both of these ideas are very bad as the shattered cds contain toxic materials and sharp slivers which, if left on the ground (especially when shattered in the air!!) will pollute the earth and leave dangerous sharp things around for people and/or animals to step on.

Here are a my original boring suggestions:-
1: Make into mobiles they catch the light most effectively
Stuck on wall in chosen design. Can act as mirror and, once again
3: Hang on sticks in the garden to keep birds off plants.
4: Unusual, but safe, handbag mirror.
Decorate folders by placing on the front and covering with sticky
6: If you get enough, put around a room to form a border or dado rail.
7: Strung together vertically and made into a blind.
8: Coasters

Ohio State has landed a quarterback for the class of 2015. Joe Burrow from The Plains in Ohio State announced on Twitter today that he was committing to Ohio State.
Burrow is rated as a three-star prospect in the 247 Sports composite rankings. The site lists him as the 334th best player in the nation and 10th best dual-threat quarterback.
The site lists Burrow as being 6-foot-4 and 205 pounds.
Gatorade named Burrow the Ohio Player of the Year last season. In 2013, he completed 218 of 306 pass attempts for 3,732 yards and 47 touchdowns. He also ran the ball 111 times for 589 yards and nine more scores.To read more or comment...
Junior defensive end Jamal Marcus is transferring from Ohio State, several news outlets have reported this week.
Marcus started for end Noah Spence in last year's Orange Bowl and posted six tackles and a pass defended.
The departure of Marcus could mean that Canton McKinley's Steve Miller, a senior, could start the first two games of the season while Spence serves a suspension.
With Marcus gone, the Buckeyes are down to the NCAA required 82 scholarship players. The Buckeyes are still under NCAA sanction, keeping them from filling a full 85 scholarships.To read more or comment...
From linebacker Ryan Shazier in the first round to Chris Fields signing as an undrafted free agent, Ohio State sent 12 players to the pros in last week's NFL Draft.
Some of those former Buckeyes have a good chance of making a quick impact in the NFL. In order, here are the Ohio State players with the best chance for immediate success in the pros:
Linebacker Ryan Shazier
Selected by: Pittsburgh Steelers, No. 15 overall
Shazier should immediately step into Pittsburgh's starting lineup next to Lawrence Timmons at inside linebacker. With his speed and athleticism, Shazier will give the Steelers a versatile playmaker on defense who can line up in multiple positions.To read more or comment...

Aubrey O'Day talks Aundrea's departure from Danity Kane
Listen to Danity Kane on iHeartRadio
The blogs have been talking for the past few weeks that Aundrea Fimbres has left Danity Kane for good, but on Friday the rumors became official. The 30-year-old announced that she was knocked-up and engaged during the opening night of Danity Kane's #DKNoFilterTour tour in San Francisco, which explains why she wasn't part of the girl group's new single, "Lemonade."
Aubrey O'Day has now spoken about Aundrea's departure, wishing her former band mate the best and vowing that DK will continue on as a trio.
"Unfortunately, it affects us drastically business-wise," she told the Chicago Tribune. "But we're incredibly strong as three and strong enough to continue and strong enough to let somebody who wants to be somewhere else go and explore the things that make them happy."
When asked about group's upcoming comeback album, Aubrey revealed that they're planning to switch up the sound a little bit now that they're down a member.
"We've definitely been dreaming up all kinds of directions to go with it. And now with the drastic changes in the bottom of the ninth inning with Drea, we want to restructure the sound a bit. With Drea being gone, we want to rethink our ideas. Drea not being on the new album marks the end of an era for Danity Kane."
Bring back D. Woods and have her record all of Aundrea's parts! If not, DK can certainly survive as a trio. If you need proof, then just check out this video of them slaying their first performance of "Lemonade" on tour — it's amazing!

Essay for English
posted by shelli .
Compare and contrast essay over Mystery of Heroism and In Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge, What is the similiarity of water in each book?
Whenever you are writing a comparison/contrast paper (paragraph, essay, research paper), you need to plan it out very carefully on paper first.
Try this:
1. Write all the information about one of your topics in a list on one page.
2. Write all the information about the other topic in a list on another page.
3. Then put them together in this order:
1. Intro
2. All about water in Mystery...
~~~2A. detail 1
~~~2B. detail 2
~~~2C. detail 3
~~~2D. detail 4
~~~2E. detail 5
3. All about water in Occurrence...
~~~3A. detail 1
~~~3B. detail 2
~~~3C. detail 3
~~~3D. detail 4
~~~3E. detail 5
4. Concl.
The number of details for each topic will vary depending on your main points. I would include comparisons (how they are similar) in the introduction and conclusion, but sections 2 and 3 and all those details will be stating and explaining how they are different.
There are two recognized patterns for writing comparison/contrast papers. One is casually referred to as "zig-zag," but can be very confusing for the reader if you don't use transitions effectively. The other is topic-by-topic (which is what I've outlined above) and is much easier for the reader to follow.
See http://leo.stcloudstate.edu/acadwrite/comparcontrast.html for further help with comparison/contrast writing.
Once you have organized your information, please repost if you'd like feedback from someone here.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"My invitations arrived quickly and I loved them straight away. The whole process was smooth, professional and a flawless product. Thankyou for making the changes I requested. I added a poem to the front and put text on the back of the invite. I was also able to change the background colour to white and heart colour to red. I felt like we had created a very beautiful invite unique to us."
"We were able to personalive this card by adding extra information and then having it re-centered. This is was done quickly and without problems! The quality of the paper is very elegant. My guests loved them! Also, if you order the rsvp cards, they will fit in the invitation's envelope."
"I am so happy that my fiance and I ordered our invitations from Wedding Paper Divas! This design was perfect for our wedding, and they did an excellent job customizing it to fit our wants and needs. The paper and print quality is wonderful, especially for such affordably-priced products. I will definitely recommend Wedding Paper Divas to my friends."
"My fiancé and I wanted something that reflected our style and wedding colors. He's got a Harley and our colors are Tiffany blue, black and white. It was all captured in this fun announcement. Ordering was easy and delivery was prompt. Would gladly work with this company again!"
"I chose this for my wedding invitations, and am thrilled with the weight of the cardstock and how vibrant the color is. I just ordered the rsvp and directions cards too!"

Mavs' Dunigan smacks three homers
Day after teammate cycles, outfielder makes his own history
By Andrew Pentis / Special to MLB.com | August 25, 2011 9:35 PM ET
For this, he credits one man not named Joe.
"It started before the game," he said of his same-handed success. "I got to get some BP against a lefty. [Batting coach] Tommy Cruz was throwing to us. His arm had been hurting, so he hadn't thrown to us as much lately. That helped my approach at the plate."
An embattled prospect recently sent down, Dunigan registered the second three-homer game of his career Thursday in the Class A Advanced Mavericks' 8-2 victory over the Visalia Rawhide.
His return to the history books came a day after teammate Denny Almonte completed the cycle in a 13-6 win over the Rawhide. He drove in four runs in the process.
The Mariners' fifth-round draftee in 2007 last went yard three times in one game during the best season of his career. Playing for High Desert against Inland Empire on May 9, 2009, Dunigan collected four total hits and plated a career-high seven runs. The University of Oklahoma product recorded six multi-homer games and 30 dingers overall that year.
Dunigan is the 17th Minor Leaguer to hit three homers in one game this season. High Desert's Dennis Raben accomplished the feat opposing Lake Elsinore on June 12.
Dunigan, who was assigned from Double-A Jackson to Class A Advanced High Desert on July 31, led off the second inning (on a slider) and fourth inning (fastball) with longballs against Rawhide left-handed starter David Holmberg.
"I saw he was throwing a slider to [James] McOwen in an earlier at-bat," the 25-year-old slugger said of his first homer. "So I sat on the slider, he threw it with two strikes, and I was looking for it.
"[Holmberg] did a good job of keeping the ball down. My approach was to to stay on top of ball, not pull off the ball. I wouldn't even call those two pitches mistakes. I stayed on 'em."
Dunigan collected his third homer -- Visalia's broadcaster Donny Baarns called the two-run shot the most impressive he had seen at Recreation Park in 2011 -- off of another lefty, reliever Michael Belfiore.
"It was a fastball away, another two-strike pitch," Dunigan said. "I didn't really watch it that long, but it was pretty hit well."
He led off again in the eighth, but struck out against Belfiore in his final plate appearance.
Dunigan, who served mainly as Jackson's DH earlier this season but has been slotted at first base in four straight games for High Desert, struggled mightily in his second Double-A try. He batted .217 and struck out in 81 of his 172 at-bats. Before being sent down, he collected two hits in his final 16 at-bats with the Generals.
Over these past two games, he is 6-for-9 with four homers and nine RBIs. Who does he credit? The batting coach, of course.
"Me and Tommy have been working on staying closed, not pulling my front shoulder out, which is what I was doing when I got here," Dunigan said. "The last couple of days, I have been feeling a lot better, not only in the games, but my approach in BP."
Danny Carroll hit High Desert's fourth homer, going deep against Holmberg in the second. Holmberg (3-5) allowed five runs on five hits over five innings. The lefty walked four and fanned six.
Mavericks starter Jandy Sena (3-4) gave up a run on six hits over six innings. He struck out three.
Reliever Austin Hudson yielded a run on two hits over the game's final three frames to earn his fifth save.

In the mid 2270s, a new Starfleet uniform design was introduced over the previous design, with many different variations. Most were gray, white, brown or beige, and came either in a one-piece jumpsuit or with matching trousers and tops.
These uniforms bore rank insignia on the sleeve or on shoulder tabs. The arrowhead emblem was adopted as Starfleet's overall insignia and was worn on the chest by shipboard personnel and flag officers. Base personnel, like those on Epsilon IX, continued to wear duty badges unique to their assigned base.
Distinctive features of this period included a life support monitor belt buckle (non-canonically named the perscan device) and shoes attached to the trousers. This style of uniform was phased out by 2278. (Star Trek: The Motion Picture; TNG: "Cause and Effect")
Standard duty uniform Edit
Tunic Edit
The standard Starfleet uniform was a two-piece tunic that came in a blue-grey, beige, brown, or white color; including any combination of. The tunic was worn untucked, and had a life support monitor belt buckle. Rank insignia was worn as sleeve stripes, and an assignment patch showing a division color was attached to the tunic chest.
This tunic came with three variations of collars. The standard was a low flat collar, but there was also a v-necked flared collar version. The standard version could also be worn with a higher, more formal collar.
Department color code Edit
These uniforms indicated department by a colored circle behind the assignment patch, according to this code:
- White – Command division
- Orange – Sciences division, scientific research and technical branches
- Green – Sciences division, medical branch
- Red – Operations division, engineering and maintenance branches
- Gold – Operations division (communications branch); Command division (helm and navigation branches)
- Grey – Operations division, security and services branches
Short sleeved tunic Edit
A short sleeved version of the standard tunic was also available. This tunic featured either a low V-neck collar, or flared V-neck. Rank was shown by division color epaulets, and a division color assignment patch was attached to the tunic chest. The V-neck tunics were available in same colors as the standard uniform.
Jumpsuit Edit
The duty jumpsuit was a one-piece uniform with integrated footwear, all one color. Rank was shown on the division color epaulets, and a division color assignment patch was attached to the chest. Some of these jumpsuits had large pockets located on the thigh.
Wraparound tunic Edit
Crewmembers performing maintenance operations had the option of wearing a wraparound tunic. Its function is similar to the duty jumpsuits of the previous uniform style, and like those jumpsuits, it is worn with a black undershirt.
Flag officer uniform Edit
The flag officer uniform was a two-piece tunic with dark gray pants and a white and dark gray flared shirt, with a high collar. Rank was shown by both epaulets and sleeve stripes, and a gold Starfleet Command pin was worn on the chest.
Rear Admiral James T. Kirk wore this type of uniform in his assignment at Starfleet Headquarters on Earth, when he was Chief of Starfleet Operations.
Excursion jacket Edit
Body armor Edit
Starship and base security personnel wore body armor complete with helmets.
Engineering attire Edit
Engineering tunic Edit
Engineering suit Edit
Protective suit Edit
Medical attire Edit
Medical tunic Edit
For use in the medical department, a white tunic with a flared collar was used, with a medical green caduceus in place of the assignment patch.
Patient attire Edit
Patients in Starfleet sickbays wore a loose fitting white tunic with a hood like flared collar, the interior of which was orange. This was worn with white pants with prominent closers running all the way down to the ankle.
EV suits Edit
Pressure suit Edit
Thruster suit Edit
A thruster suit was an environmental suit with the addition of a thruster pack attached to the back.
Civilian tunic Edit
This uniform was worn by civilians during the refit of the USS Enterprise while it was in drydock. They were available in the same colors as the standard Starfleet uniforms.
Examples of rank insignia Edit
|Sleeve insignia
Petty officer
Chief petty officer
Lieutenant commander
Rear admiral
|Epaulet insignia
Appendices Edit
Background information Edit
Overall, these uniforms were only used in Star Trek: The Motion Picture, though parts of them were recycled into the lab coats of the Regula personnel in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and the red jacket uniforms seen in the next six films and episodes of TNG.
Robert Fletcher designed the uniforms and insignia seen throughout the movies. The Enterprise insignia and rank system were originally designed by William Ware Theiss.
George Takei stated that this version of the uniform was not comfortable, and that because of the way it was designed it required assistance to be removed – even for minor things such as using the restroom. He stated that the redesigned uniform featured in the rest of the films with the original series cast was brought about because of the cast's reluctance to film any further films with this version of the uniform.

As a fourth-grade student in 1967, Gary Nastase managed to jump the fence at old Irwindale Drag Strip in an effort to use his 12-exposure Instamatic to take pictures in hopes of emulating idols Leslie Lovitt and Jon Asher.
On Monday night, the Rancho Cucamonga resident was invited to Richard Childress Racing headquarters in Welcome, N.C., as part of the NASCAR Media Tour to accept the Charlotte Motor Speedway Russ Catlin Award for Excellence in Motorsports Journalism in photojournalism, one of the country's most prestigious motorsports photo award.
"An aesthetically pleasing photo rife with visual intrigue and definite `stopping power."' noted the judges. "Although the situation is not unique, the photographer captured an image that also functions as spot news."
It's no longer a NASCAR-oriented award that is judged by the Indiana University School of Journalism. Since 2000, the award has virtually made its home here, with three Southern California photographers winning the last three years.
Staff photographer Will Lester is the lone four-time winner (2000, 2006, 2008, 2012) while Mark Rebilas won in 2010 for an off-road race photo taken at Glen Helen Raceway.
The winning shot was Todd Lesenko's Funny Car, owned by Jim Dunn of Long Beach, exploding at the U.S. Nationals at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis on Labor Day weekend in 2012.
Not only was Nastase beaming at such an honor, so is this writer. We've known each other for more than 30 years, he's worked for our publication shooting racing and hockey and it gave me great pride to say we helped him become of the country's best.
The award is accompanied by a $1,000 scholarship, which Nastase has directed to the Mt. San Antonio College photography department. He credited Randy Smith for being an instrumental part of his career.
He also credited wife Karen for aiding his secondary career. "I couldn't have done it without her," the award winner said. "She was always there for our kids (Aaron and Ashley) when I was gone and for me."
Nastase's day job is being a mechanic with UPS, and he'll be retiring later this year. ...
Setting the record straight: In the Sunday column listing fathers who coached their sons on the high school level, we overlooked a very successful man on both fronts: Dick Larson.
Larson retired from Damien several years ago but not before he coached four of his sons. John and Mark were part of Larson's Cantwell High School teams while Mike and Scott played for dad at Damien.
John and Scott also coached alongside their father at Damien. ...
Colton's Dave Snyder had quite a run at the Empire Bowl in Redlands, according to Frank Weiler. who keeps track of such things.
Using a Brunswick Rhino, the only bowling ball he's ever used, Snyder recorded a rare 600 (200-200-200) triplicate series in the Senior Laughlin League. That's about as rare as a 900 triplicate.
And if that wasn't enough, Snyder followed that up with a 607 (201-203-203). Those 200 scores are just slightly above his average.
In his bowling newsletter, Weiler reported Snyder "keeps his green Rhino so shiny that it nearly looks new." ...
From the email box: "So the Dodgers are coming to Rancho Cucamonga for an exhibition game? Since the Spirit and Quakes were created, what other teams have made an appearance locally?" - T.D., Rialto
The Mariners played in San Bernardino when the Stampede was part of the Seattle organization. Can't recall whether the Padres made it to the Epicenter when San Diego was affiliated with Hank Stickney's team ...
Never too early to start planning where to watch the Super Bowl on Feb. 3. There's always the fourth Kermit Alexander and NFL Friends "Big Game Event" at Orange Terrace Community Park in Riverside.
"This is a great way to watch the game," said Alexander, who spent 14 years playing in the NFL with the 49ers, Rams and Eagles. "It gives us retired players a chance to do something good for our community."
The event raises funds to fight child abuse. There are just 350 VIP tickets available at $45, with children 6-15 costing $10. Tickets can be purchased online at www.pcafootball.com.
Among the former NFL players returning are Dana Hall (ex-Ganesha High School standout) and Leonard Russell (ex-Mt. SAC) in addition to Dwight Hicks, Jesse Sapolu, Joe Sweet, Craig McEwen, Cedrick Hardman, Marlin Briscoe, Marv Fleming, LeRoy Irvin, Mike Lansford, Reggie Doss,Ivory Sully, Sam Cunningham and Efren Herrera. ...
San Bernardino Valley College has put together quite a network for its broadcasts of home men's and women's basketball games. The games are on KVCR and 21 cable stations.
In addition to cable in the local area, the telecasts are seen as far away as Coachella to the east, the High Desert to the north and Leisure World in Orange County. ...
It's been some time since LaTara Darrett played locally. She started high school at Ayala before transferring to Don Lugo but finished out at IMG Pendleton Academy in Florida. In 2005, she was a member of the gold medal team in the 2005 USA Youth Development Festival.
In college, the Chino resident started out at Baylor but transferred to Prairie View, where she led the team in scoring during the 2009-010 season with a 15.7-point average.
She then signed with the Italian team CUS Cagliari Pallacanestro and made the All-Star team last year. Today, she's scheduled to return to Europe where she will play with Bellizona of Switzerland. She said her ultimate goal is playing in the WNBA. ...
Double take: If you're reading NASCAR news on the USA Today pages, you might see a pair of familiar names.
Nate Ryan has worked at the paper for some time and was joined this month by Jeff Gluck. Both of them covered motor racing for us before moving on.
They're both excellent reporters and writers with an impressive following. ...
For the past two years, the State Farm Collegiate Open Golf run under the direct of George Fisher was among the best amateur events in the country. The 2012 event at Red Hill Country Club drew raves reviews.
However, the tourney will move to Hidden Hills Country Club in Norco on June 10-12 and Fisher is now a special consultant. Larry Rice, who served on Fisher's committee, will take over as director. ...
Triplicate, part 2: Ex-staffer John Murphy, who wore a bowling shirt into the office once or twice, also had a rare triplicate. He was the only sportswriter to have worked in Victorville and Riverside in addition to this publication.
Murphy will be returning to is old stomping grounds in the Bay Area and the Shortstop Grill he often reminisced about in his local column. For 20 years, Murphy staffed the local area and he'll be missed.

Re: Rob Gronkowski
1. How do we know for sure Ozzie took Gronk off the board? The fact that the Patriots jumped ahead of the Ravens to take Gronk plus the fact that the Ravens drafted Dickson and Pitta soon thereafter suggests that Gronk was likely very much in play for the Ravens in Round 2.
2. As noted in numerous other posts, what does a chronic back injury have to do with current freak forearm injuries?
3. If Gronk never plays another NFL down, his performance to date makes him well worth the second round pick used on him.
4. Using Gronk's current injury as an excuse to pat Newsome on the back makes zero sense given that Newsome immediately followed up the Gronk pick by drafting a narcoleptic with knee problems who is already out of the NFL.

Re: Rob Gronkowski
Not sure if we was on the board or not for the RAVENS. But he does have a degenative back problem, Stenosis I beleive made teams wary. But his back has been fine thus far.
Re: Rob Gronkowski
Re: Rob Gronkowski
Gronk had a history of injuries with his back missing much time in college. Bellicheat took a chance on him and it paid off
until he missed the SB last year when Pollard ruined him and now again this year but these aren't back injuries but
he misses the most important games nontheless.
Meanwhile Pitta and Dickson who aren't as flashy but just as deadly seldom miss a beat. Both played in Denver and Pitta impacted the Denver game and will this game.
They were safe steady picks.

Re: Rob Gronkowski
There was a Sun story by Jamison Hensley leading up to the 2010 draft that talked about him being on their radar, but the focus of the piece was his injury questions (along with others who they thought might be there, namely Demarius Thomas
Perhaps the most difficult medical case is Gronkowski, the Arizona tight end who is considered the Ravens' dark horse pick.
Gronkowski missed the 2009 season following back surgery to shave off a disk that was sticking out and onto his spinal cord. Needing six months to recover, he didn't participate at the combine.
NFLDraftScout.com recently reported that an NFL scout had confirmed that Gronkowski has been "red-flagged" by teams due to stenosis, a narrowing of the spine that can cause numbness and leave a person prone to paralysis.
His agent denied the report.
"Every team I have talked to says there are no concerns about his back," agent Drew Rosenhaus said. "He passed his physical at the combine. There are no red flags on him. He is ready to go. The back is not a factor. There's no issue."
"Ozzie has made a living drafting players with injuries," one insider told The Sporting News. "If Demaryius Thomas or Rob Gronkowski are sitting there, they may not get past Baltimore."
I don't know that anyone ever said the Ravens had taken Gronkowski off their board, but stories like this did appear saying teams had done so.
The player I didn't like in that draft that everyone else did was Dez Bryant. A lot of people still think he was Ozzie's big miss and he should have traded up so Dallas could not leapfrog them and take him.
Thomas went 21, Gresham 22, and Bryant 24. The Ravens, sitting at 25, traded out with Denver who took Tebow with the 25th pick.
Bad move in the sense that Kindle was the guy they took at 43, one pick after New England took Gronkowski at 42. Then they missed on Cody with their other second round pick. But they did get Dickson and Pitta with the extra picks from trading with Denver, so missing out on Gronkowski hasn't been all that damaging.
In an ideal world, though, they just take Gronkowsi at 25. And the Kindle drama would not have ever transpired for them.
While Hensley never came out and said he was off their board, other reports very clearly said he was. For instance, a year later on NFL.com Albert Breer wrote a piece where he praised the Pats up and down for the pick, and in which he wrote,
Rob Gronkowski, just tied the NFL single-season record for touchdown catches by a tight end (13) and looks like a 22-year-old Jason Witten who will be a matchup nightmare for defense for the next decade. An examination shows how being all-in on a player can pay off:
» The background: The Patriots had the 44th pick in the 2010 draft, having already taken Devin McCourty at the bottom of the first round, and were targeting Gronkowski. Afraid Baltimore might take him with the 43rd pick, the Patriots called the Raiders, and gave them a sixth-round pick to move up two spots, leapfrog the Ravens, and grab Gronkowski.
» The twist: The Ravens weren't going to take Gronkowski. The Patriots were right that the Ravens were looking for tight ends (they took Ed Dickson and Dennis Pitta later in the draft), but because of his back injury, Baltimore had taken Gronkowski off its board, like many other teams did.
» The lesson: The Patriots did the right thing by being aggressive to get Gronkowski, without question. That sixth-round pick sent to Oakland wound up being Arizona State linebacker Travis Goethel, a spot special teamer as a rookie in 2010 who's spent this season on injured reserve.

Re: Rob Gronkowski
Even if Gronk is in and out of the lineup for a few years I think they'll have gotten their money's worth. He's a mismatch on everyone when he's in the game and then they can safely fall back to Hernandez who's pretty good when he gets injured.

Re: Rob Gronkowski
Re: Rob Gronkowski
Yeah I don't think he was ever off our board, just the Pats jumped up and took him before we could. I'd bet anything that if the Pats didn't do that we would've taken him. Who knows what the rest of the draft would've looked like as I doubt we get Pitta and Dickson, well maybe they still pick up Pitta dunno. Could you imagine drafting Gronk AND Pitta? I'd take just those 2 picks and leave everything else out there, Kindle, Cody, Dickson, etc....
Just for theory if we took Gronk at 25. Never traded out odd's are we'd still have Cody and Pitta. Dickson and Kindle would've been the casulties all else being equal. Ah but hindsight and all that.
Hand down our worst draft ever. Pitta excluded.

An Australian man who died after being trapped in snow for six hours following an avalanche on Mount Everest has been hailed as a hero.
Dean Higgins, of Adelaide, was trekking in Tibet with his wife and two others when the fatal avalanche struck on Monday.
Julie Mahony, a family friend who has been in contact with Mr Higgins' wife, told the ABC that Mr Higgins spent hours working to free others who had become trapped.
"They were under the snow for about six hours and Dean dug them out of the snow," Ms Mahony said.
"They had to get down the mountain to safety and that took approximately eight hours.
"We're not exactly sure what happened, but he was alive until they got down the bottom."
On Thursday, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) confirmed the death of the 60-year-old man.
A DFAT spokesperson said consular officials in Beijing were in contact with Mr Higgins' wife, Wendy, who runs a Mortgage Choice franchise in the Adelaide suburb of Glenelg.
Messages of condolence flood the business' Facebook page on Thursday morning, with friends and strangers describing Mr Higgins as a "hero" for his work in freeing those trapped in the avalanche.
Mortgage Choice chief executive Michael Russell said Mr Higgins was a "beautiful man" who loved his wife and daughter, Sara.
"He was very dignified and had a great sense of humour," he said.
"We're absolutely devastated as a group and it's been a very numb and painful day for everyone in the organisation."
Mr Russell said the couple were trekking in Tibet with two friends.
Details are continuing to emerge of the conditions which led to Mr Higgin's death.
According to the Xinhua News Agency, Mr Higgin's tour group had entered a restricted area on the foot of the mountain and camped out on Sunday night (local time).
The group of 10, which included three herders who acted as porters, two cooks and a tour guide, encountered an avalanche.
The three local herders also died during the tragedy, the agency reported.
Sharon Cohrs, an Australian tour guide who runs treks to Everest Base Camp, said conditions could change rapidly in the area around Everest, which often makes setting up overnight camps a dangerous task.
"A lot of things come into play," she said.
Ms Cohrs said the area had always been "quite" safe, with stomach bugs generally posing a bigger danger to trekkers than mountain elements.

-ad this line "options snd-hda-intel model=mbp3" at the end of: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base

Thx Ozzy66 for the reply,
I manage to get it working before i seen your post but soon as i do my hard drive install if i run into the problem again, i will surely add that to the line thx bro.

Time: 5:00 pm
Location: Belk Library -- Room 114
Admission: Free, open to the public
Have you wanted to know more about the differences and commonalities among Christianity, Judaism, and Islam? Students, faculty & community members are invited to attend a panel discussion by three Appalachian State faculty members of the book, The Children of Abraham: Judaism, Christianity, Islam by F. E. Peters. The three panelists, Dr. Alan Hauser (Dept. of Philosophy & Religion), Dr. Maria Lichtmann (Dept. of Philosophy & Religion), & Dr. Rahman Tashakkori (Dept. of Computer Science), will use this classic comparative study to discuss the interconnections between these three major faiths.
Copies of the book are available in the Browsing section of the Appalachian State University Library. Students, faculty, and community members are encouraged to check-out the book and participate in discussion. But familiarity with the book is not necessary to appreciate this event. The event will be Tuesday, Nov 12, at 5:00 PM in the Library auditorium Room 114.
The event is presented by ASU Library in conjunction with the Muslim Students Association as the third event of the Muslim Journeys Bridging Cultures "Let's Talk About It" Program, a series of book and film discussions. The Program is supported by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the American Library Association. This series follows upon the Muslim Journeys Bridging Cultures Bookshelf Program begun in spring 2013 which provided materials related to Muslim cultures to the University Library.
