OXFORD United's play-off hopes were snuffed out with a defeat in their final game of the season.
Marc Richards' shot put the hosts in front at half-time after an evenly contested opening 45 minutes.
United were spurred on by news rivals Crewe Alexandra were losing, but their commitment to attack saw them caught out midway through the second half, when Sean Rigg struck a second goal on the break.
It gave the U's a mountain to climb and they could not find a way back into the contest, conceding a third goal to Ben Williamson in stoppage time, as their season petered out with a seventh game without a win.
Manager Chris Wilder made four changes in an unfamiliar starting line-up, with Damian Martinez, Tony Capaldi, Peter Leven and Tom Craddock coming into the side.
It meant a change of system, switching from 4-3-3 to a 4-4-1-1, with Craddock playing in behind Jon-Paul Pittman, who had the first sight of goal.
Just two minutes were on the clock when the striker cut in from the right flank and arrowed a low shot from 20 yards which beat Vale goalkeeper Stuart Tomlinson but slipped past the post.
Craddock had the next clear opening, on 19 minutes, when he was put through by Andy Whing, but the striker delayed his shot long enough for Joe Davis to recover and block.
Vale had plenty of the ball but Martinez, signed on loan from Arsenal yesterday, was untested until the 37th minute.
Rigg, who looked lively on the left flank, got to the byline and hung up a cross to the back post, which Tom Pope headed straight at the Argentinian goalkeeper.
Martinez was beaten four minutes later, when Marc Richards pounced on United skipper Jake Wright's back header, nipping in to flick a finish into the net.
Despite the scoreline, United were given added impetus at the break with the news play-off rivals Crewe Alexandra were 2-1 behind at home to Aldershot.
In response Adam Chapman, Scott Rendell and Oli Johnson were all brought on as the U's adopted their more familiar 4-3-3 formation.
It almost made an immediate impact, with Leven playing in Chapman on the counter-attack, but the midfielder's attempted chip was easily caught by Tomlinson.
The changes transformed the tempo of the game, with United on top but leaving gaps at the back for Vale to exploit on the counter-attack.
Richards nearly made it 2-0 just before the hour, but Capaldi did brilliantly to slide in and deflect the close range shot over the crossbar.
The game was wide open and United needed a brilliant save from Martinez to stay in the game, with the goalkeeper tipping Tom Pope's header over the bar.
From the resulting corner Vale had two efforts blocked on the line, while Pope hit the post.
A goal for one of the sides seemed inevitable, and it arrived on 69 minutes when Vale doubled their advantage.
The hosts sprung on the counter-attack, leaving Wright to face two attackers. Rigg opted to the chance on himself, going past the defender's challenge and lashing a shot past Martinez.
United continued to attack, but had little joy until Pittman headed into the net six minutes from time. The celebrations were short-lived, with the referre ruling the goal out for a push from the striker on his marker.
Vale ran down the clock with ease and rubbed salt into the visitors' wounds when Ben Williamson struck a third goal in the final minute.
Attendance: 5,621 (886 visitors).
Oxford Utd: Martinez, Batt, Duberry, Wright, Davis (Rendell 46), Hall, Whing (Chapman 46), Leven, Capaldi, Craddock (Johnson 49), Pittman.
Substitutes: Crocombe, Montano.

How to remove stretch marks in pregnancy?
Is it impossible to not have stretch marks when you're pregnant, even when you take proper diet.
16th May 2013 07:26 AM #2
Hi Molly - Welcome to the forum. Many women experience stretch marks (though not all). If you get stretch marks depends on lots of different factors such how much weight you put on, how big is the baby, your particular skin type and your nutrition. Stretch marks are caused by the skin stretching
to accommodate the enlarging uterus and increased weight.There are lots of products on the market to avoid getting stretch marks - no skin preparation is completely effective at preventing stretch marks.

Hi Molly
I was lucky enough to avoid stretch marks in pregnancy. While I did religiously use Bio-oil on my tummy every day from very early on in the pregnancy, I can't really be certain that that is what actually prevented the stretch marks.
I was very careful with weight gain and made sure I had a good diet with good supplements too (especially zinc). Who knows? Maybe it did work, or maybe I am just not predisposed to stretch marks. I figure though by doing these things, I reduced my chances. You might find this article interesting: Stretch Marks

Relieved from growing marks
I was even stressed with problems of stretch marks after my first baby. It was all over my stomach and lower back, Coconut was effective but to lesser extent than i was refereed to stretch marks services by my near by skin clinic Hills Medi spa, sydney. it was quite effective, my doctor suggested me best treatment. It really helped me get my pre pregnancy looks back. I hope this helps you.

I have also heard reports that coconut oil is good at removing stretch marks due to the fatty content of this type of oil. I personally found rubbing almond oil into my tummy and thighs each day of pregnancy helped to soften my skin and I don't have big problems with stretch marks.
Stretch marks do generally lighten and fade in the 12 months following pregnancy.
I like to think of any stretch marks that remain as a reminder of the amazing way our bodies have carried a baby through pregnancy. They show you have brought beautiful new life into this world.
Yes, my body has changed because I have had two children - but so has my whole world, and I like it this way!

I have to agree with LJ that stretch marks are a natural sign of an amazing journey. There is far too much emphasis these days on 'bouncing back' after the birth of a baby. This article sums up my thoughts on the topic well: Bouncing Back Postpartum
26th June 2013 06:16 PM #7
Thank you for posting this article - a refreshing read in a body obsessed society. Let us mums keep this in mind:
'Your postpartum form is neither unhealthy nor unattractive. It is proof positive of the power of the female form in nurturing a baby before and after birth, upon which you can draw as you begin life as a new mother.'

huh many varying creams and oils can be massaged into the stretch mark to make them less visible. Coco butter, lavender oil, cod liver oil etc. Just take these and massage onto the stretch mark.
21st December 2013 06:50 AM #9
My favourite is almond oil (assuming there are no nut allergies). I found massaging it in immediately after a shower or bath helped it to be absorbed better.

You can use lemon juice to reduce the appearance of the stretch marks. Gently massage the stretch mark with lemon juice and you will notice that your skin lightens. Lemon is rich in Vitamin C and naturally acidic, it has known for its lightening benefit.

I used Dermalmd Cream during my pregnancy and I loved it. It didn't prevent me from getting stretch marks or anything but it made my skin feel soft and moisturized. It was the only thing that stopped my stomach from itching during my third trimester. I love it!

My child can't focus at school
My son is 7 years old and in 1st grade. His teacher is completly frustrated and says he does not pay attention at all in class. I had him tested for ADD last week and they said he does not have that. He is not disruptive in class, just sits and doesn't pay attention. He misses directions for assignments and tests.
I don't know what to do to help him, and the teacher is at a loss. (She was convinced it was ADD, although I don't see the signs at home.)
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

2009 Presley's Midwest Open Archery Tournament
The 2009 Presleys Midwest Open Archery Tournament is scheduled for December 5 & 6, 2009
Go to the following link to see and/or print out the Presleys Midwest Open Archery Tournament Flyer:
To see and/or print out a copy of the flyer, scroll down below the picture that is on the web-page and then click on Click Here for the Flyer. You can also view and print out last years results.
There are a few changes for this years tournament:
1. There are no shooting lines on FRIDAY, Dec. 4, 2009. Presleys will be open for practice, first come, first served, from Noon until 8PM on Friday. There is a $5 fee payable at the archery counter when you pick up your target.
2. We have changed the shooting line times on SATURDAY, and added the 4th shooting line on Saturday evening: Those shooting line times are:
a. Saturday 7:30AM b. Saturday 11:30AM c. Saturday 2:30PM d. Saturday 5:30PM
3. The CUBS can only register for the SATURDAY 5:30PM shooting line. CUBS will also, as in the past, shoot the SUNDAY 7:00AM shooting line.
4. We will, if registration goes as anticipated, be shooting the 2:30PM on Sunday.
5. The UPPER Championship shooters (those that most likely will finish in the money) will shoot at NOON on Sunday, just as they have in the past.
6. Tentatively, The UPPER Trophy shooters for each style will shoot at 2:30PM on Sunday.
7. The other two line times will be filled by grouping competitors with their closest competition and by trying not to break up shooting styles, if at all possible.
8. There will still be a door prizes drawing held on Saturday. However, due to the later shooting line at 5:30PM, this drawing will be a silent drawing. The winners will be listed and can pick up their door prizes when they sign in to shoot on Sunday.
9. Illinois Whitetails, LLC has again contributed a 3-day Guided Deer Hunt just like last years contribution. Presleys will be selling raffle tickets for this guided hunt with ALL of the proceeds from the raffle going into the Championship Money Purse. The drawing for the 3-day hunt will be held on Sunday. You do not have to be present to win this hunt, but will be asked to submit your copy of the raffle ticket for verification when notified.
Shooting rules will be the same as last year. NFAA shooting equipment rules will prevail.
The overall awards for highest score Male & Female in both Championship and Trophy Divisions will be continued again. Any shooting style can win this Overall Award simply by shooting the highest score. This means that a CUB, or anyone else is eligible for the award.
We are hoping that the Championship Purse will be higher than last years purse. However, we are unable to guarantee what that purse will be, nor will we know for sure the final amount until Sunday morning, Dec. 6, 2009. Of course all of the $50 portion of the registration fee will go to the shooters respective shooting style. Division of the entire purse is, once again, by percentage participation for each shooting style. For example, if 85% of the total shooters are in the Female Freestyle, then 85% of the total contributed portion of the purse will go to Female Freestyle.

RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA -- A young woman missing in a Southern California forest since setting out on a Sunday hike was rescued from a rocky ledge on steep slope Thursday, authorities.
Kyndall Jack, 18, was hoisted out of Cleveland National Forest by a rescue helicopter and rushed to a hospital.
"We have confirmation that we have Kyndall and she is alive," Orange County sheriff's Lt. Jason Park said.
Park said she was responsive but dehydrated and weak. There was no information on whether she had other injuries.
A reserve deputy suffered a head injury and was also flown to a hospital.
Crews had ramped up efforts to find Jack after her companion was discovered dehydrated and disoriented the night before.
Nicolas Cendoya, 19, was discovered parched and without shoes by another hiker shortly before 8 p.m. Wednesday less than a mile from where the pair's car was parked. He was airlifted to a hospital.
Cendoya was talking to paramedics but struggling to answer questions about what had happened and where Jack might be.
"He was extremely confused and disoriented," Park said.
Kyndall's father, Russ Jack, told the Los Angeles Times that Cendoya was able to share some information despite his dazed state.
"Nicolas obviously was disoriented because of dehydration. ... He thought that Kyndall had already been rescued," the father said. "But apparently Kyndall has twisted her ankle or something and could not keep up with Nicholas trying to get out of the brush they're in."
Orange County Fire Authority Capt. Jon Muir said he had not heard about the possible injury to Jack, and noted that Cendoya had been giving all kinds of inconsistent answers.
Sheriff's investigators planned to talk to him at length once he was recovering at Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo.
The pair made a 911 call from a dying cellphone Sunday night and set off the search.
Muir gave new details about Cendoya's phone call.
"He was panting and said, 'We're out of water.' You could hear Kyndall in the background. He said, 'I think we're about a mile or two from the car,' and he was right about the distance but in totally the wrong direction," Muir said.
The hiker who came across Cendoya on Wednesday night went for help and found a firefighting training crew not involved in the search that just happened to be nearby, Park said.
They found Cendoya eight-tenths of a mile south of where much of the search had focused, about 500 feet from a dirt road that sees regular vehicle traffic. He was surrounded by so much vegetation that the helicopter rescue crew had trouble keeping track of him once they found him.
"When the rescuer was lowered he lost sight of him," said Division Chief Kris Concepcion of the Orange County Fire Authority. "That's how thick the brush was."
When he was found he was wearing board shorts, a shirt but no shoes.
Cendoya was in serious but stable condition, Mission Hospital's Dr. Matthew Kaplan told TV reporters.
"He's strong, he's young, he's a healthy young man, and he's pulling through," Kaplan said.
Several dozen searchers with help from helicopters had been combing the rugged hills of Trabuco Canyon in the national forest.
Two volunteers got lost themselves and had to be airlifted out Wednesday afternoon. They were searching the area because the Sunday 911 call was traced to a nearby cell tower, Muir said.
Muir said earlier that Cendoya and Jack's "probability for survival is good" with mild weather both day and night.
The two were believed to have gone off trail near Holy Jim Trail, a tree-lined dirt path along a creek that leads to a waterfall and is popular with day hikers.
The area is in a section of the national forest in the Santa Ana Mountains, which lie along the border of Orange and Riverside counties southeast of Los Angeles. The trail ranges in elevation from about 2,000 feet to about 4,000 feet.
Associated Press writers Christopher Weber and Robert Jablon in Los Angeles contributed to this report.

eHarmony's Dating Site Services Connect Canadian Singles On 29 Dimensions Of Compatibility. Read How Our Online Dating Site Determines Great Matches For You
Most people know that the key to success in a long-term relationship is compatibility. But what does that mean? If you and your new mate both like foreign movies and mocha ice cream, will you still feel the magic in 25 years?
eHarmony matches singles based on a deeper level of compatibility, not likes and dislikes, but true compatibility. Do you and your potential mate resolve conflict in a similar fashion? Are you both romantics at heart? And we are the only online dating web site that matches singles based on these 29 Dimensions®. To help you better understand these dimensions, we've grouped them into Core Traits and Vital Attributes.
Core Traits are defining aspects of who you are that remain largely unchanged throughout your adult life. Vital Attributes are based on learning experience, and are more likely to change based on life events and decisions you make as an adult.
These key areas paint a powerful portrait of who you are at the deepest level and form the basis for how our patented Compatibility Matching System® finds singles that are truly right for you.
How do you relate to other people? Do you crave company, or prefer to be alone? Are you more comfortable leading, or do you prefer to go along with the group? Basic feelings such as these comprise an important aspect of who you are and who you will be most compatible with. The dimensions which define your Social Style are: Character, Kindness, Dominance, Sociability, Autonomy, and Adaptability.
How do you think about the world around you? Are you motivated by an insatiable curiosity about the world and events around you? Are you constantly looking for intellectual challenges? Do you find humor to be your favorite coping strategy when dealing with the world? Although Emotional Temperament and Social Style can impact on this trait, your Cognitive Mode is an important separate aspect of who you are, and defines a lot of the ways in which you interact with people. The dimensions which define your dominant Cognitive Mode are: Intellect, Curiosity, Humor, and Artistic Passion.
How do you relate physically with the world? How do you relate physically with yourself? Are you energetic, athletic and constantly in motion? Or are you more comfortable and happy walking than running? Feelings and thoughts which revolve around your physical life form an important aspect of who you are. The dimensions which deal with your Physicality include: Energy: Physical, Passion: Sexual, Vitality and Security, Industry, and Appearance.
Values and Beliefs are at the center of most of our life experiences. How we feel about spirituality, religion, family and even politics influence how we think about the world and who we are going to be most comfortable sharing our lives with. The dimensions that determine your Values and Beliefs are: Spirituality, Family Goals, Traditionalism, Ambition, and Altruism.
All of your life experiences combine to affect who you are and how you relate to the world. Although many of the effects of these experiences are represented by the other Core Traits and Vital Attributes, the following dimensions are considered part of your Key Experiences: Family Background, Family Status, and Education.

FOX Sports Daybreak: Brian Geltzeiler
Andy and Mike caught up with Hoops Critic.com & Sirius/XM NBA Insider, Brian Geltzeiler this morning. Brian talked about the Bulls decision to release Andrew Bynum after their trade and says, Bynum's past behavior has limited his options.
Brian Geltzeiler: "He wants to play for the Clippers or the Heat. I have heard the Heat have a luke-warm interest... That's not an avenue they wanna go down. What's happened to Bynum, is he likes to think that some of the things that he's done recently and behind him, will just be forgotten about because he's 7 feet tall and got some skill... The fact is, there's gonna be teams that don't want to get in bed with a potential nightmare - that's what Bynum's kind of become... I've heard both the Knicks and the Nets have a passing interest. I can't imagine him going either of those places. And frankly, just the notion that the Knicks have an interest is insane... You're gonna put Bynum's personality on that team, with that group of nuts? Who knows what would happen there..."

31 January 2013 : A special double miles offer is being made to cardholders of all oneworld®member airlines' frequent flyer programmes – including those of Malaysia Airlines' Enrich – to mark the addition of the Malaysian flag carrier to the alliance today.
Members of Malaysia Airlines' Enrich loyalty scheme will receive double Enrich award miles when flying between 15 February 2013 and 15 April 2013 on oneworld partners airberlin, American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific Airways, Finnair, Iberia, Japan Airlines, Qantas, Royal Jordanian, S7 Airlines and around 30 of their affiliated airlines on tickets bought from today to 15 April 2013, provided they register first at https://www.enrich.malaysiaairlines.com
Similarly, the 125 million members of existing oneworld airlines' loyalty programmes will receive double mileage awards when flying on Malaysia Airlines between 15 February 2013 and 15 April 2013. For further details, see member airlines' websites.
The 2 million members of the Enrich programme have been mailed new membership cards, bearing the oneworld logo and the alliance's "gemstone" tier status symbol, to ensure that they receive the alliance's full range of services and benefits when travelling throughout the entire oneworld network from tomorrow.
Enrich Platinum cardholders will have Emerald status in the oneworld programme. Enrich Gold will be equivalent to oneworld Sapphire and Enrich Silver will be oneworld Ruby.
From midnight tonight, Enrich Platinum and Gold members will be able to use any of the 550 airport lounges worldwide offered by oneworld member airlines whenever they fly with any of the alliance's carriers. (See notes below) Those lounges include many judged among the best in the world in the various airline industry award schemes.
oneworld is the only alliance to offer top tier frequent flyers access to First Class lounges when they are not booked to travel in the First Class cabin.
Enrich Platinum cardholders will from tomorrow also be able to check-in at the First Class counters of the oneworld airlines, even if they travel in Economy or Business class, and take advantage of two new benefits unveiled today for cardholders with oneworld Emerald status in any member airline loyalty programmes – additional baggage allowances and access to fast tracks through security checks where they are offered. See separate news release for more details on these new benefits.
Malaysia Airlines' Enrich Gold card is equivalent to oneworld Sapphire, enabling cardholders, accompanied by a guest, to use any Business Class or frequent flyer lounge offered by oneworld's member airlines worldwide when they travel on any oneworld flight, no matter in which class they are booked.
They can also check-in at Business Class desks when they depart on any oneworld flight, irrespective of their class of travel.
As oneworld Emerald and Sapphire frequent flyers, Enrich Platinum and Gold cardholders can now board any oneworld airline's flight at any time they choose before the boarding gate closes, rather than wait for passengers in the cabin in which they are booked to be called for boarding.
Enrich Silver cardholders have become oneworld Ruby frequent flyers.
Like oneworld Sapphire members, they can check-in at Business Class desks when they depart on any oneworld flight, irrespective of their class of travel.
All three oneworld tiers – Emerald, Sapphire and Ruby – are also offered priority standby and waitlisting on any oneworld airline, if the flight they want to travel on is fully booked.
In addition, they can pre-reserve their preferred seat on any oneworld flight, whenever this service is available.
Another key change for Enrich cardholders when Malaysia Airlines joins oneworld tomorrow is that they will earn Enrich status miles when they fly on any oneworld member airline, helping them move up to a higher tier, with more services and benefits, or retain their existing status.
They will also earn mileage rewards when they fly on any oneworld member airline – and be able to redeem their mileage rewards for flights not just to the 60 destinations served by Malaysia Airlines but to all 850 or so served by all oneworld member airlines.
oneworld frequent flyer benefits in brief
Because of an impending upgrade to LAN's frequent flyer information technology system, members of Malaysia Airlines' Enrich and LAN's LANPASS programmes will experience reciprocal frequent flyer rewards and benefits when flying on each other's airlines from 1 April 2013.
Preferred and pre-reserved seating is offered in line with the individual policy of the oneworld member airline operating the flight. Fast track at security lanes is available at selected airports (check oneworld.com for details).

The child-care center Stephanie was attending for the first time was enormous—like an indoor playground with children of different ages running around her in all directions. Stephanie's mother had shown her around the room and introduced her to the caregivers before she left, but that seemed a very long time ago, and now Stephanie was all alone. She stood near the wooden sink in the play kitchen, gazing in awe at the unfamiliar plastic dishes, the painted burner on the toy stove, and the bowl full of plastic fruit. Nearby, two boys were fighting for control of a toy train set, and one boy hit the other on the head with the train engine. The noise of the second boy's crying filled Stephanie's head, increasing her confusion and anxiety. She looked around for a grown-up. There was a lady across the room. Help! Stephanie thought, but did not know enough to say. That noise is so loud!
Suddenly, Stephanie felt a warm, wet sensation on her inner thighs beneath her jeans. She looked down. Uh-oh. An accident. Vague, undefined feelings of disappointment and shame filled her, crowding out all thoughts of her surroundings. Unable to think of how to fix the situation, Stephanie started to cry. Then, a moment later, a grownup's arms were around her shoulders and a friendly voice murmured, "Hey, Stephanie, it's okay. You had an accident. We'll dry you off and put some clean clothes on you right away."
As adults, we sometimes forget how intensely young children experience their world, and how easily thrown they are by any change in their daily routine or their surroundings. At ages two, three, and four, our toddlers or preschoolers have come so far in terms of verbal skills and general comprehension that it's easy to overestimate their ability to focus, prioritize, and remember.
Research has shown, however, that through the entire toddler and preschool period children remain weak in their ability to select and prioritize information from the flood of sensations that reach them. A young child walking along the sidewalk with a parent is as likely to focus on the sounds of birdsong in the trees as on her parent's voice or the car speeding past a few feet away. A child who finds herself struggling to cope with a wide variety of stimuli in an unfamiliar environment, as Stephanie did in the example above, may easily miss her body signaling the need to eliminate. Even when a toddler is just headed for the bathroom in her own home, she may be sufficiently distracted by the sound of a whistling teapot in the kitchen to forget where she was going.
Parents frequently find that bathroom accidents are more common when their toddlers and preschoolers are playing outside, watching television, playing on the computer, painting pictures, or otherwise focusing so intently on one activity that they fail to notice their physical needs. An inner focus on another aspect of development—acquiring a new skill or coping with an emotional issue—can have the same effect.
Another factor to take into account is that young children's memories tend to be more situation specific than most adults realize. Your child may use her potty every day without mishap at home but "forget" the necessary sequence of actions at a friend's house or restaurant, on a day when her ordinary routine has been altered, or even when she is wearing tights or some other new variation on her usual clothes. Young children also have difficulty thinking ahead of time about their bathroom needs, and must be reminded to use the potty before going out even though they don't urgently need to.
Finally, despite the leaps your child may have taken in verbal ability over the past two or three years, new situations or experiences may still leave him at a loss for words. He may not know how to tell you that his skin is irritated, causing pain when he urinates, or that he's constipated and it hurts to poop. Unable to fix this problem, he tries to ignore it until an accident results. Unable to express his confusion about a particular potty-related process or rule, he may even have a few accidents on purpose to solicit your reaction and, he hopes, get the information he needs.
All of these behaviors are perfectly normal and age appropriate for your child. In fact, it is a good rule of thumb to wait for at least six months after your child starts using the potty to consider him fully trained.
By praising him for his progress and teaching him to think ahead, focus, and plan better regarding toilet use, but continuing to keep cleanup aids at hand, you allow him to continue learning at the irregular pace that is appropriate for his age, to experiment with variations on his original routine, and to discard behaviors that clearly don't work.
Like you, he will have good days and bad days in terms of focus, memory, and performance in all aspects of his behavior. Like you, he will progress more smoothly and quickly in response to praise and patience—along with firm and consistent instruction—than to harsh criticism or ridicule.

In the past few years, the 303 has emerged as one of the most formidable wheels in the pro peloton, with wins in the Tour de France, Paris-Roubaix, the Tour of Flanders, the Amstel Gold Race and more. Its speed, light weight, and utter reliability have been proven in pro cycling's most demanding races.
The 303 made history by becoming the first carbon wheelset to win cycling's two most famous Cobbled Classics, Paris-Roubaix and the Tour of Flanders. Its wider rim provided extra durability, and improved aerodynamics. That wider rim also led to the development of our revolutionary Firecrest platform, and now the revolution has come full circle.
The new wheels retain all the small details that make Zipp wheels what they are. Exposed spoke nipples sit in the aerodynamic shadow of the rims, keeping serviceability simple without compromising speed. And our signature ABLC rim dimples squeeze every last second of performance possible.
To complete the package, Zipp has refined its venerable 88/188 hubset, reshaping the hub body and pushing the non-drive-side flange and bearing out by 7.5 mm on the rear hub to increase overall stiffness and strength. The wheelsets come with two decal options, the stealthy Beyond Black or the distinctive Classic White decals. Both decal options feature black anodized hubs, black spokes and black nipples.

Mom accused of abducting children arrested in SC
From the Associated Press:
CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina highway troopers have arrested a woman accused of abducting her two children from their grandparents' home in Maine.
Senior Trooper Bridgent Wyant says 34-year-old Bethmarie Retamozzo was arrested about 10:15 p.m. Saturday after troopers spotted her van with New York tags at a rest area off Interstate 95 in Colleton County.
Police in Waterville, Maine, say she disappeared with her 6- and 7-year-old children before a planned supervised visit. She was supposed to take them to a park to meet a supervisor Thursday.
The children were unharmed and turned over to the Department of Social Services. Retamozzo is charged as a fugitive from justice.
Wyant says she will remain in Colleton County jail until FBI agents take custody.

Locally, the Sale brach raised more than £2,500. Stretford achieved £1,523.86, while Urmston collected more than £1,700.
Vice-president for the Greater Manchester legion, David Forbes was very proud of the total.

Decided to spend a little time yesterday and today getting down with browns...and a few other colors too. Used similar papers in these cards as I pulled up to my scrap bin and began to work. Stamped a few layers, die cut little and just had some scrapping fun...
In this card I used Simple Stories paper and sticker, Glitz stamp (back), Papertrey Ink stamps (label, butterfly and sentiment), My Little Shoe Box and October Afternoon papers, Pink Paislee stamp (banner: Spring Jubilee), Prairie Bird Boutique wrinkle ribbon (same on all) and some David Tutera bridal adhesive pearls (these are amazing!). Altered the bottom of the card using Papertrey Ink die and added a strip of cardstock to the inside of the card...stamped using Pink Paislee Spring Jubilee stamp.
On to the next card...
Ok...the doily (guess it is larger than I thought), vintage buttons from Remember Me Emily, hand cut flower and petals from My Little Shoebox and October Afternoon papers, Papertrey Ink stamps and die (sentiments, label). To create the flower, cut several layers of the flower using just your scissors. Each one a little smaller than the previous layer. Ink edges for contrast.
My favorite one of the bunch. You have seen me use these mini "wreaths" before from Hobby Lobby. Created the paper flower by just rough cutting a circle from paper using scissors and spiral cut until you reach the middle of the flower. The calendar scallop label behind the heart is from Simple Stories paper.
Finally, the first card I created that started this mini collection. The paper on the bottom half of the card is My Mind's Eye and Glitz. Brought all of the colors together using buttons and love the Simple Stories heart sticker with the Maya Road heart pin in it. Backed all my layers here with Glue Arts U-Cut It Foam to add more depth. Have a great day and hope this inspires you to use some of your scrap pieces today!

Final call for CWFC Braves on July 12th
If anyone wishes to enter the 2nd CWFC Braves event on July 12th please contact me now
So far we have had little interest for this event which is a real disaappointment considering the success of the previous 'Braves' event in April.
Once again Cage Warriors will be providing a platform for 13-17 yr old Junior MMA Fighters to gain experience in the big cage and pit themselves against suitable opponents in the afternoon of July 12th at Nottingham.
At the last event 10 up and coming Juniors proved they had what it takes to enter the Cage and displayed terrific professionalism and skills, arguably holding some of the best fights of the entire day and evening.
Coaches, Parents, Clubs & Gyms should contact Ian Dean directly to nominate their fighters in order for us to accurately match opponents. Email Ian at email@example.com.
As before, we shall provide full professional staging and ancillary services for all Juniors taking part and we are looking to build upon our initial outing with more bouts.
We are taking applications for 'Braves' at the following levels
13-17 year olds
13-15 no headshots
16-17 with headshots
For more information contact me asap

On UFC website I'm sure
Would love to see one of the scottish fw get a chance against someone like young. Top spaces in the rankings.are ufc fighters would be good to let someone under him.get a crack at taking him over
Whiteford or mcgregor probs b next up id imagine if not both
Liam Bad Intentions James, pro mma uk featherweight!!
Shame but understandable, as already said it opens doors hopefully for new talent which also hopefully will be UK based. Also if Jason can regroup and put a few wins under his belt again then maybe he will be back on the big show one day.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
i think whiteford. turner and mcgregor. either 3 of them would all do well against ufc competition. it seems like an endless road to get to the ufc. then once your there u need maintain that winning streak or your fucked and back to square one!

Shide, 14th century
Ink on silk
97.8 x 35.6 cm (38 1/2 x 14 inches)
Gift of Mrs. Gustav Radeke 20.319
In Buddhism, the Chan (or, in Japanese, Zen) teaching stresses meditation, experience, and intuitive understanding as the means to enlightenment. This concise depiction of the monk Shide epitomizes Chan painting. Every element is reduced to its essentials: a figure with facial features and body contours described with a few brushstrokes, a landscape defined by a tree branch and some vines. Shide and his companion, the well-known Tang poet Hanshan (probably eighth or ninth century), were monks who embodied true wisdom and were noted for their eccentricity. Here Shide raises a brush to write on a banana leaf. This painting would most likely have been paired with a representation of Hanshan unrolling a scroll. At upper right, a poem inscribed by a fourteenth-century monk dates the painting.

Samsung Electronics has begun mass producing 2GB and low power double-data-rate 3 (LPDDR3) memory using 30nm-class technology for next-generation mobile devices.
The new LPDDR3, which marks the first time a 2GB LPDDR3 density is available in one space-saving package, utilizes four LPDDR3 chips stacked together, the vendor said. LPDDR3 is needed for fast processors, high resolution displays and 3D graphics in tablets and smartphones.
The new 2GB LPDDR3 DRAM can transfer data at up to 1600 megabits per second (Mbps) per pin, which is approximately 50% faster than a LPDDR2 DRAM. And on the package level, it provides a data transmission rate up to 12.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s), which will enable playing of full HD video content in real-time on smartphones and tablets, according to Samsung. The high data transfer rates allows LPDDR3 to exceed support for full HD video payback on screens exceeding the current market available four-inch measurement and enable real-time viewing without downloading the content for the full HD visual experience.

FAA and NORAD Changed Records to Accord with Cheney Lies
By emptywheel
Saturday November 14, 2009 7:51 am
A senior counsel for the 9/11 Commission, John Farmer, has written a book exposing the degree to which our response to 9/11 was disorganized and outdated, geared to respond to an attack from Russia rather than from terrorists. Most significantly, Farmer reveals that FAA and NORAD altered their chronologies of the day only after a briefing at the White House.
We've known for a long time that the FAA records, in particular, were politicized. Given already documented proof that Cheney lied to hide the fact that he violated the chain of command on 9/11 it's not surprising that that politicization served Dick Cheney's false narrative of leadership.
But we can add this book to the long list of proof that Cheney's a big liar trying to hide his own incompetence.

text: I have an idea for a camera tracking behavior that I am looking for hints on implementing: I'd like to apply a force to the camera as a linear function (with a defined maximum force) dependent on the camera's current position to this point: This point would move to be a specified distance from its target in whatever direction it needs to do so. Additionally, it would use something similar to the "Place Object On Surface" menu item to furthur position the point. Then it would offset the point by a defined "elevation" variable. The effect should be a smooth chase camera that follows terrain and never goes through objects. After writing this now, I see it would be a problem for any tall objects on the terrain, like trees. Can anyone offer some hints at what sections of the Script Reference would be good to look at for this? Or a better approach is most certainily welcome. I guess what I'm looking for is "lazy" object parenting with collisions, so you never go under the terrain in an ugly way. Thanks -Jon

Elaborate Wine Heist Unravels
(NEWSER) – Give thanks, oenophiles: An "elaborate" Thanksgiving Day wine heist has met its end, after Seattle police on Tuesday recovered most if not all of the 2,500 stolen bottles, valued at $648,000. Kindly, the thieves apparently kept the 200 cases safe in a "temperature controlled environment" at a Sodo storage facility less than a mile from where the theft took place, the Seattle Timesreports. "While we are still doing an inventory to make sure it's all there" (that's no small feat; every bottle has to be photographed and entered into evidence) "the volume recovered makes us eager with anticipation," says the owner of Esquin Wine & Spirits, who called the theft "something out of Ocean's 11."

far long has it been that there is more talk than flicks and a lot of quality work is being drowned out by "cool pics bro" or other pointless chatter no one cares to see. i remember at one point it was post a flick if you wanted to talk. i strongly believe in that and feel that we should go back to that mindset. who doesnt love checking this thread and seeing fresh book work and other ill type stuff? it doesnt take much to post a flick. so go the extra mile and do so. Also, if you feel that you arent sure that you should be posting in here, there are 2 other threads in the toys forum that you can post in to see if you have what it takes. it doesnt make you any less by doing so.

RANCHO CUCAMONGA - Retired Superior Court Judge Craig Kamansky saw something special in the Redlands East Valley High School Mock Trial team.
The team, which won the county Mock Trial title for the fifth time since 2004 on Saturday, may be the school's best yet.
And that says a lot.
"It really is a top team," Kamansky said. "They went five rounds. They performed at the highest level each time."
Kamansky added, "To me it's the best team I've seen."
Redlands East Valley High defeated Redlands High School in the final, held at the Foothill Law and Justice Center. It was close, but REV got the nod.
The Mock Trial competition is a simulation of a criminal court case where high school students portray the principal courtroom characters on both sides of a case before a judge.
"It was really close," REV coach Ed Berman said. "The competition between the two schools is so close. RHS is a very solid, very strong team."
Going into Saturday's final, Redlands East Valley High and Redlands High had combined to win each of the past eight county championships.
Redlands High was vying for its 12th county title. It was the Terriers' 16th finals appearance in 17 years.
And it was Redlands East Valley's sixth county title with Berman as coach.
"That says a lot about the two teams, two very strong programs in the Redlands Unified School District," Berman said. "It really is the two teams."
His teams' pre-trial and closing statements were strong, Berman said.
"We dealt with content as it happened in the case," Berman said.
Redlands East Valley senior Hailey McClung saw the closing argument as a critical moment.
"Our closing turned it around," she said. "It brought out their flaws and it brought out our strengths."
REV junior Blake Berich delivered the closing argument.
"It's double-weighted, so it's worth 30 points," Blake said. "So it was definitely important."
Blake added, "Against Redlands (High), you have to be at your absolute best."

Springer extends streak on perfect day
Astros prospect goes 4-for-4, cracks career-high three doubles
By Sam Dykstra / Special to MLB.com | July 8, 2012 8:44 PM ET
"There's always those pressures and expectations whenever you're a first-rounder or second-rounder to go out there and succeed," he said. "But then again, you always want to succeed and do well, no matter what the case is. For me, I have to believe in myself to help work that out. Know your game, go out there and play."
Lately, Springer's game has to been to hit the ball, and it hit it very well. The Astros' No. 3 prospect was a perfect 4-for-4 with three doubles, a walk, two RBIs and two runs scored in Class A Lancaster's 10-8 win over Stockton. He extended his hitting streak to 16 games in the victory, marking both a career best and the longest such run for the JetHawks this season.
"I feel good," Springer said. "Everything's working within the plan that I've been kind of setting for myself. I put in a lot of preparation and once I hit the box, I want to get something I can swing at so I can get the head of the bat smoothly on the ball."
The center fielder achieved that goal in his first three at-bats -- singling in the first inning, doubling in the second and stroking an RBI double in the fourth. But in the fifth, his third double of the night didn't exactly match Springer's idea of a perfect two-bagger.
"The first two [doubles] were pretty solid, but that last one was a bloop job," joked MLB.com's No. 72 prospect. "But it still counts. I'll certainly take it."
The former University of Connecticut star also stole two bases Sunday night, both times taking third base. After walking in the eighth inning, he moved to second on an Erik Castro free pass, proceeded to swipe third on a double steal and then took home on a throwing error by Ports catcher Max Stassi.
With that second steal, Springer improved his season total to 20 -- tops on the Lancaster roster and tied for eighth-most in the California League.
"I run when I can," said the JetHawks' No. 2 hitter. "With guys like [Domingo Santana] and Erik hitting behind me, they can swing the bat and I'm not going to take it out of their hands by getting caught. But at the same time, I will run if I think there's an opportunity to help the team out. It's just more about letting those guys hit and putting our team in the best scenario to score."
Along with the 20 steals, Springer is batting .326 with 17 homers and 63 RBIs through the first 80 games of his opening full year in pro ball. His .981 OPS ranks third in the hitter-happy Cal League while his .576 slugging percentage is fifth, aided by his career-high three doubles Sunday night.
Because of those numbers, he was awarded with the starting right field spot on the Cal League All-Star team last month. (He went 0-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in the showcase.) Meanwhile, Springer has been a little harder on himself than his accolades would suggest.
"For myself, I've done OK," he said. "I know I can do a lot better, and that's something I'm always working on. I want to get better each day."
So does that mean a 5-for-5, four-double performance on Monday? Perhaps not.
"I'm just looking to help us win, however I can do that," Springer said. "If it means getting a hit every at-bat, I'll try for that. But if it means taking three walks, I'll do that too."
Second baseman Enrique Hernandez was 3-for-4 with a double, walk, two RBIs and a run scored for the JetHawks.
Ports first baseman Josh Whitaker finished 2-for-5 with two doubles and three RBIs while left fielder Mitch LeVier contributed a three-run homer in the sixth.

The slopestyle final was tight. Dew Tour organizers took the riders input and ran it a bit earlier than originally planned today. Instead of dark shadows, the riders got some milky sun. Better for their confidence and a better show for the small, but vocal crowd. Speed was definitely an issue in several spots on the course. And so was the wind. Olympic-bound Kjersti Buaas was jumpin'-pumpin' between every hit for speed, "I don't want to hit these knuckles," she said. But, Buaas caught one—and so did a lot of other riders. Janna Meyen-Weatherby was definitely favored in the ladies division, but she dropped out, opting for a DNS at the last WDT due to a sore ankle. "I looked at the course this morning and decided I didn't want to risk missing out on powder for the rest of the season by getting hurt here," she explained, from the bottom corral where she cheered on the other female competitors.
Tahoe's Jamie Anderson, nabbed the top spot for ladies with a run that included a big front 7 and the cleanest rails of any girl in the contest. Jamie also took the Dew Tour Cup today. That's an extra $25,000 in her pocket on top of the first place purse. Behind her came Jenny Jones from the U.K. Jenny rode solid all day and was smiling as usual—probably still riding the wave of stoke from her XGames gold last week. In third, came Canadian Spencer O'Brien. Spencer is a badass. She had a couple baubles in her runs, but hitting the super-steep down rail with a boardslide to fakie, then going straight into a switch back five on the next hit was a sick combo. She got that podium with some burly riding. For the rest of the pack it was a fight for speed and rhythm on what Jamie Anderson described as a "super-scary" course.
Tyler Flanagan sat down in both of his runs—the crowd (and Tour) favorite from Mammoth Lakes, California was pissed off after his first run "I'm so over it right now!" was his quote. But after his second run he regained his usual good spirits and said, "I'm going home to powder and then I'm going to Japan." That ought to cure the contest blues. A podium finish today would've given young Flanagan the Dew Tour Cup, but instead, that went to another 16-year old, Sage Kotsenburg. Sage rides with confidence and calm and set down a ridiculous number and variety of tens today. He got second place and with his Dew Tour Cup, heads home to Park City with thirty-five grand in his pocket tomorrow. Not bad for a kid who doesn't even have a car yet. In third place was dark-horse Ian Thorley. The Michigan kid has been in the mix for a few seasons, but today his ice-riding skills paid off in spades. The kid put down a switch double backside rodeo that was just undeniable. That one boosted up his score and held his podium position all through the second runs.
And—no surprise, today's Slopestyle winner for the men was Norway's Torstein Horgmo. After his first run he said, "I'm just glad I survived, because it's sooo sketchy up there." Then on his second run he linked together a switch backside twelve into a backside ten late cork. Guess he got over the sketch factor. Tour killer Chas Guldemond, Eric Willett and all the other riders put on a hell of a show today. Hats off to them all. Next up—halfpipe prelims tonight. Check out the wrap-up here tomorrow.

In my more than 42 years as an employee of The Salt Lake Tribune, few colleagues commanded the overall respect that Lex Hemphill earned.
Whether working as a sportswriter, columnist, Olympics reporter or editorial writer, Lex earned our admiration as a journalist who spent hours studying and researching facts before putting anything on paper. We knew that his stories would always be exhaustively researched.
When he and his wife, drama critic Nancy Melich, left the paper shortly after the 2002 Olympics, many wondered where they might take their many talents.
Nancy kept active in drama, spending most summers helping theater enthusiasts attending the Utah Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City learn more about the plays they were attending.
Lex took his passion for Sugar House Park, a place near his home where he regularly walks, to a position on its Park Authority Board. He eventually would serve as president.
He ended eight years of service on that board last spring. In talking about his time there, he emphasized that he no longer spoke for the Park Authority because he had left office.
I had a personal interest in Lex's work. Not only did I consider him a good friend, but he took the spot on the board held by my late wife, Gayen, shortly after she passed. I was familiar with many of the issues that would engage him.
But, as a journalist myself, I wondered how Lex would make the transition from objective writer to board member.
"Working on a newspaper, you don't engage in jobs like this," Hemphill said. "You really can't. Because of conflict-of-interest equations, you can't get involved in public service."
Lex, who still serves as the media representative on the far more controversial State Records Committee, said that after 25 years working as a journalist, he had a pent-up desire to serve. And he thinks his professional experience helped him.
"It takes some objectivity to do the job," he said. "We dealt with a lot of different constituencies. One of the things I could bring to it was to listen to both sides. I thought we accomplished as much as we could in my time on the board. I always felt like an advocate for the park. … When you get out of that objective newspaper business, now you can act on the passion you feel for [the park]."
Many probably don't know the history of Sugar House Park.
It is on the site of the old state prison, which moved to its present location at the Point of the Mountain in 1951. The state of Utah sold the land jointly to Salt Lake City and County. When it came time to develop the park, city and county leaders formed a third entity, the Sugar House Park Authority, and signed a 99-year agreement for the nonprofit organization to operate it. Harold Fabian, a noted Utah lawyer who was instrumental in helping the Rockefeller family acquire land that would become Grand Teton National Park, was its first president.
The city and county committed to pay operations and maintenance costs for the park.
"The downside is that more than 50 years into the park's history, things started to deteriorate," Lex said. "The physical structures, built in the '50s and '60s, are now 40 and 50 years old. That assessment from the city and county is for the daily operation and not for infrastructure updates or capital improvements."
Thus, money must be found for upgrades to basic facilities such as three restrooms and seven pavilions as well as roads and other facilities.
There were numerous other issues, such as where and how the Parleys Trail and Sego Lily Plaza would use Sugar House Park; the relationship with adjacent Highland High School, which uses some park land for athletic facilities; new park benches; a master plan; a website; new signs; a road marked for pedestrians and bicycles; and an annual July Fourth fireworks show.
Under Lex's leadership, the Park Authority decided to no longer pay for the fireworks, a controversial decision at the time that resulted in private funding for the big summer holiday event. The authority decided its primary responsibility was to take care of the park and not spend its limited resources on a one-night party.
"You look back and think that you only take little steps," Lex said. "You do what you can to try to make it better."
For those of us who love Sugar House Park, the hard work of Lex and many volunteers like him have helped keep it a quiet open-space gem in an increasingly bustling urban area.

The ban to sale spray paint was in March 1992. You can have spray paint in the city of chicago its just not sold there. If cops stop u for no reason and dey see u have paint they can either take it or give it back. Its not illegal to carry it. My guy got popped for some dumb shit (smoking on the train platform) they found he had cans they gave dem all to me and took him to jail. Now if dey catch u using them in a criminal act then yes its illegal.
damn thats ruff whyd the pig say he had to go to jail tho if ur allowed ..or he was just pulling piggy stuff cause ive been told u cant even have it on u ....ive tossed so many cans ditching umfor that reason.

Two search engines are available for your use. The first engine searches the subject lines of ASSM posts and is therefore useful for finding stories by author name or title, provided the poster put this information in the subject line. The second engine is the main ASSTR search engine, although there is an option to search just the ASSM archives. This engine searches the full text of the works, and is therefore useful for finding titles, keywords, and phrases from the work you're trying to find.
