Rock Hill, S.C. - The South Atlantic Conference released the 2009-2010 season preview and preseason All-Conference selections Wednesday afternoon, naming Samantha Winn to the All-Conference second team. With the selection, Winn becomes the first women's basketball player to receive this honor.
Winn, a 5-10 forward, led the 2008-2009 Tornados in scoring averaging 16.4 points per game, ranking her second in the conference while also leading the team in rebounding averaging 7.8 per game and ranking fourth in the conference.
This year's team will enter the season stronger and more experienced as Head Coach Shannon Reid returns eleven players and all five starters from last year's team that went 6-21 and 0-16 in the SAC in their first season as full NCAA Division II members. Coach Reid also welcomes her first recruiting class as the Tornados look to improve with new faces and veteran leadership.
Lenoir-Rhyne University, which won both the regular-season and Food Lion South Atlantic Conference women's basketball tournament titles, is the favorite to win the 2010 championship, in a poll of the league's head coaches.
The Bears, who return all five starters off last season's team that went 27-5, received eight first-place votes and 80 of a possible 81 points.
Lenoir-Rhyne also leads the way with three on the preseason All-Conference team. Senior center Denise Moore, the most valuable player of last year's conference tournament, is back after averaging 13.6 points and 7.1 rebounds last season. She is joined on the preseason first team by junior guard Amber Holt, a three-time first team All-Conference selection. Brittany Mitch was named to the preseason second team.
Carson-Newman College is picked to finish second. The Lady Eagles received one first-place vote and 70 total points.
Carson-Newman brings back its top three scorers from last year's team that advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Ashley Kyle led Carson-Newman in scoring at 14.7 points per game and ranked third in the league in assists. She is joined on the preseason All-Conference first team by senior forward Shari Buford, a two-time All-SAC selection who led the nation in field goal percentage last season and is a preseason honorable mention All-American.
Newberry College is picked to finish third with 56 points.
Newberry also placed two on the preseason All-Conference second team in Anita Bulcher and Helen McKinney. Bulcher, a senior forward, averaged 13.3 points and was second in the conference with 8.7 rebounds per game. McKinney was second on the team in scoring last year at 14.9 points per game.
Tusculum College is fourth in the poll with 54 points. The Pioneers were conference champions with Lenoir-Rhyne last season, but will be under the direction of new coach Adell Harris. Returning to the Pioneers is Jasmine Gunn, a preseason All-Conference first team selection as well as a preseason honorable mention All-American to lead the team.
Wingate University is the pick for fifth place with 47 points. The Bulldogs will begin a new era without two-time conference Player of the Year Anna Atkinson. Wingate does return Kurie Washington, last season's Freshman of the Year, who was named to the preseason All-Conference first team.
Catawba College stands in sixth place with 32 points. The Catawba Indians bring back sophomore center Dana Hicks, who averaged 11.1 points and 6.9 rebounds in her first collegiate season and was named to the preseason All-Conference second team.
Lincoln Memorial University received 28 points for seventh place. The Lady Railsplitters return four players from last year's squad, including sophomore point guard Dayshalee Salaman, a member of the 2009 SAC All-Freshman team.
Mars Hill College is picked for the eighth spot with 25 points The Lions bring back Brittini Young, who led the conference last year in scoring (16.6 points per game) and free-throw percentage (.865) and was named to the preseason All-Conference second team.
Brevard College rounds out the poll with 13 points. The Tornados placed Samantha Winn on the preseason All-Conference second team. Last season, Winn was second in the conference in scoring at 16.4 points per game.
The 2009-10 season opens Sunday, November 15, with a pair of games. Wingate is on the road to face Queens University of Charlotte, while Carson-Newman hosts future SAC member Anderson University. Three more teams open play on Monday, November 16.
The 2010 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference tournament will begin on Wednesday, March 3 with quarterfinal games on campus sites. Winners advance to the semifinals on Saturday, March 6 at the Catawba Valley Community College Multipurpose Facility in Hickory, N.C. The championship game will be Sunday, March 7 at 4 p.m.

Grissom, Kathleen. The Kitchen House
When Lavinia, an orphaned seven-year-old Irish immigrant is sold to Tall Oaks plantation as an indentured servant, she must learn how to straddle the two worlds she occupies. Adopted into the loving embrace of the black slaves who work at the Big House, Lavinia is unaware of how her white skin affects her position. However, when she grows older and is noticed by the opium-addicted lady of the house, Miss Martha, her status changes, and she is sent to the home of Miss Martha's sister in Williamsburg to be educated as a proper white woman. Lavinia retains her loyalties to her black family and when she marries the new master of Tall Oaks, Marshall, these loyalties are tested. Marshall reveals himself to be a hateful and violent master, abusing both Lavinia and the black slaves on the plantation. Lavinia, who slowly looses her will to stand up to Marshall, must once again find her courage in order to save her Big House family from his destructive grasp.
Lavinia's story offers a unique perspective into the world of early 19th century plantation life. Grissom does not shy away from many of the harsh realities of that time but does a wonderful job of infusing the engaging story with emotional and strong characters.

U.S. News rankings: Moore School International Business still on top
Contact: Peggy Binette 803-777-5400 firstname.lastname@example.com
The same month that it breaks ground on its new Darla Moore School of Business building, the University of South Carolina is being recognized for having the nation's top undergraduate international business program.
Across the USC system, USC Aiken is No. 1 among public regional colleges in the South, and USC Upstate is ranked No. 3.
The Moore School's undergraduate program earned the No. 1 ranking for the 15th consecutive year, and the school itself moved up one spot to 42 for overall business education nationally. The school's undergraduate insurance program is ranked No. 10 for a second consecutive year.
"The Moore School is delighted to have retained our best-in-class No. 1 ranking for our undergraduate international business program while further improving our overall undergraduate programs ranking," said Dean Hildy Teegen. "Our faculty and staff continue to lead with our innovative curriculum and programming in ways that clearly resonate with students, employers and our loyal alumni. We are proud to advance our economic development mission by educating the most noteworthy leaders for global business right here in the heart of the Palmetto state."
USC was ranked 54 among all national public universities and also featured in the section, "A-Plus Schools for B Students," for a second year. The university also moved up five spots to 105 for best undergraduate engineering programs and up 18 spots to No. 80 in the category of high school counselor rankings.
The citations appear in U.S. News & World Report's 2012 "America's Best Colleges Guide."
USC also earned accolades for the second consecutive year for its student-enrichment offerings. A section titled "A Focus on Student Success" cites USC for having one of the nation's best programs for First-Year Experience and Learning Communities. This fall USC welcomed more than 4,500 freshmen, most of whom are taking the University 101 course, which is a key component of the First-Year Experience, which helps students transition successfully to college life.
Approximately 1,940 undergraduates live in one of 20 USC living-and-learning communities. These academically themed communities are an integral part of the student experience, connecting undergraduates to the institution academically and socially. Among the communities are ones dedicated to engineering and computing, journalism, music, Capstone Scholars, the S.C. Honors College and the Healthy Carolina wellness community.

Solutions to Support Unlimited Possibilities
Meet the Change Leaders
Nathan Flory
November 2013
Recently we had the opportunity to interview UTSA Change Leader Nathan Flory, Administrative Service Officer for the office of Financial Aid.Nathan and his team of work-study students are communicating the message about UTShare / PeopleSoft in a most creative way. By preparing the UTShare/ PeopleSoft "door" display in the hallway as a visual, Nathan's creative techniques are working to get the message of UTShare/PeopleSoft out to the Student Affairs and Financial Aid departments.
Left to right, Nathan Flory, Adam Gomez, and Melanie Spiller
Tell us about you, your role at UTSA Student Affairs and Financial Aid department.
I am the Administrative Service Officer for the office. I oversee the department Budget, Purchasing, Travel, HR issues, etc.
How long have you been with UTSA?
I have been on staff with UTSA for 8 yrs. All eight years have been in the Financial Aid office in various roles ranging from Financial Aid Customer Service, Processing, Reconciliation, Compliance to now Administration for the past 2 ½ yrs.
Prior to UTSA, what were you doing?
After college I worked for a year with a church in Lyon, France and another year in Business customer service with Citi-Bank. This short time also included being part of small team that handled transitional customer service for a smaller bank being acquired by Citi-bank.
How did you become a Change Leader to the UTShare / PeopleSoft implementation?
I was asked to be part of this group. Perhaps because I am a technological orientated person or because of my current role using the interfaces that are changing.
How long have you been a Change Leader at UTSA?
Since September of 2012
What are activities you are doing in your department to prepare the team for UTShare /PeopleSoft?
Up to this point I have provided updates to our manager team, solicited one-on-one feedback from several teams within our department regarding their fears/concerns, provided general announcement in an all staff meeting with demonstration of ESS and now providing the visual display within the office.
How did the idea of the "door" and info graphic reference with the creative approach come to mind?
I am a visual learner so any outlines, flow charts, sectional graphics etc. really help me. I suppose I thought of doing this a while ago it was just a matter of having time to get something up. J
Are there others who have helped you to finalize the display?
Yes! I had two work-study students help print, cut and tape up the display. They are Freshman Melanie Spiller and Junior Adam Gomez.
How has the department responded to the "info graphic" and the UTShare / PeopleSoft messages overall?
So far just several people stop outside the door to stare (and hopefully read). This is probably because it was something new in the hallway. I will have to change it up a bit later on to keep it "Fresh"
What is the most challenging aspect, right now, of being in the Change Lead role?
I would say the most challenging aspect of being a change leader is finding the time to transition my thoughts towards something that is happening in the future that I have little control over when there is so much day to day work to do now. Also, not having all the answers for questions that are asked is challenging.
What are the highlights of being in the Change Lead role? And, what surprises you the most?
It's a privilege to be a small part of such a huge under taking that is simultaneously impacting our university and others. I love to learn and experience new systems and interfaces so being able to see a bit of the inside of the work is exciting. I am surprised at just how much time and work is involved with this transition on so many levels.
What inspiration or advice might you offer other Change Leaders at UTSA?
I guess, just remember that we are all in this together and that there is no going back. So unless there is constructive feedback, simply complaining really does no good.
Other comments about the project team, PeopleSoft Support and Sustainment Center, etc. that you'd like to share?
I see and appreciate how you all are working not only on the actual project itself but also on the communication out to the university as a whole. I can only imagine the challenge of striving to meet all the diverse expectations of the shareholders involved on this project.

Both in the thick of a very tight race for a playoff spot, the New York Islanders and Winnipeg Jets square off on Saturday afternoon at MTS Centre.
The Islanders sit seventh overall in the Eastern Conference thanks to a nine- game point streak (7-0-2). They are one point ahead of the eighth-place New York Rangers and three up on the Winnipeg Jets, who occupy the ninth spot in the conference with four games left to play for all three teams.
While also looking to hold off the Jets and Rangers, the Isles are just a point back of the sixth-place Ottawa Senators in the standings and two back of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who sit fifth.
The Jets, meanwhile, have posted their longest winning streak since relocating Winnipeg from Atlanta. They have won five straight and only sit two points behind the Washington Capitals for first place in the Southeast Division. The Caps also have four games left in the regular season and visit the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night.
Looking to end a five-year playoff drought, the Islanders bested the hosting Toronto Maple Leafs 5-3 on Thursday as John Tavares continued his MVP-like season. The forward scored twice and added an assist as he ranks third in the NHL with 26 goals.
Brad Boyes added a goal and two assists, while Matt Moulson and Frans Nielsen also scored. Evgeni Nabokov made 18 saves to help New York extend its longest point streak since going 9-0-1 with a tie to open the 2001-02 season.
"When your forwards are making good decisions and winning all the battles, it makes it a lot easier for us," said New York defenseman Andrew MacDonald, part of a defense that has not allowed more than three goals in 13 straight games.
New York won the opener of a season-ending five-game road trip that still includes trips to Carolina, Philadelphia and Buffalo.
The Jets, meanwhile, have not reached the playoffs since the franchise's lone appearance in 2007. However, their five-game winning streak is the longest for the club since the Thrashers won six straight from Nov. 19-30, 2010.
Dustin Byfuglien scored the game-winner in Thursday's 4-3 overtime triumph versus the Hurricanes, putting home a rebound off an Andrew Ladd shot 1:23 into the bonus frame.
Ladd had three assists, giving him four goals and 12 points over a six-game point streak, while Blake Wheeler and Bryan Little extended their respective point streaks to five games. Wheeler had a goal and two assists versus the Hurricanes and has three goals and seven assists over his run, while Little's two assists give him eight helpers and nine points over his streak.
Ondrej Pavelec posted 24 saves on 27 shots in the victory.
"I guess you feel the pressure a little bit, but as professionals, you're just playing another game," said defenseman Zach Bogosian, who also scored. "I think you've got to get the two points and that's what we've done the last little bit here. But as far as how intense the games are and how close they've been, I guess that can roll over to somewhat of a playoff series."
The Jets will end a six-game homestand today and will play their next two on the road, including at Washington on April 23, before ending the regular season at home versus the Canadiens on Thursday.
The Jets and Islanders have traded home wins this season, with New York winning four of the past five overall. The Isles had won three straight as the guest in this series before a 5-4 overtime loss in Winnipeg on Jan. 27.

LOSERS: This is the time of year when we're in big demand. Huge demand. Beautiful women stop us on the street and say, "Wow, could I use a man like you! What are you doing this evening? Shall we make it, say, 7 p.m. at the Belmont Athletic Club?"
"Well, we don't really work out ..."
"No! Really?" they say in mock amazement, sarcasm glazing their remarks like the icing on a Sweet Jill's cinnamon roll.
Sadly, it turns out they don't want us for our sparkling intellect. They only want us for our body.
Today is weigh-in day for Justin Rudd's annual Long Beach Losers, a 12-week team weight-loss challenge in which squads of dieters and workers-out try to out-lose one another and be rewarded with cash prizes, plus a glowing feeling of accomplishment and a towering sense of self-worth.
Most of the people we know who take part in the contest are overweight by the sort of figure that can be measured on an herb scale. They work out regularly, eat sensibly. A slice of gluten-laden toast is to them what a banana split is to us.
Every year at this time, as the initial weigh-in approaches and teams are made, they look at us waddling around and their eyes turn into cartoonish dollar signs.
They fight over us, offer to pay for our registration, arrange for our transportation and lodging. They see us as their ticket to an easy romp.
"Look at you!" they shriek. "You'd be perfect!"
We're flattered.
"You don't have to work out or anything. Just give up pie or something and you'll lose a ton of weight. It's easy for guys!"
OK, wait a minute. Nobody's giving up pie.
"You could write columns about your experience!" they say, like that's a selling point.
Nobody, we say, wants to read about a guy not giving up pie.
In fact, now that the nation's columnists have long given up cigarettes, their No. 1 subject is "How I'm Going to Lose X Number of Pounds in X Number of Weeks." Then, they either succeed, which is terribly disappointing and boring for readers, or they fail, which is hilarious, though predictable. There's no new territory to be blazed there unless the columnist gnaws off a leg at the last minute to hit the desired weight by deadline.
The short version of how Long Beach Losers works is you and the rest of your team shows up at the Belmont Athletic Club, 4918 Second St., between 6 and 9 a.m. today, or, if that ship has already sailed, between 5 and 8 p.m. this evening.
You'll give them your team name, pay $65 and stop eating for three months. You return for a weigh-in each Wednesday for 12 weeks. Teams of five people compete to lose the highest percentage of weight, as opposed to total tonnage. Cash prizes are then disbursed with amounts based on how many people take part.
A full list of rules (No. 13: "No sabotaging other teams"), plus hundreds of weight-loss tips (No. 270: "Try zumba.") are available at JustinRudd.com.
We remain a free agent, a viewer from the sideline. Good luck to everyone. Now, we're going to try a big platter of zumba.
THE GROUP REGROUPS: Those of you who are, tragically in your 50s or slightly beyond and who came up in Long Beach, will recall that maybe the best live music in town in the early 1970s could be heard in the lounge at the Hindquarter restaurant in Naples, where Dave Ursini's Naples Rib Co. is now.
It was a great place to work, for that matter. (Denny Lund was GM around 1970 to '72, Mark diPiazza was a cook there - we were, too.)
The two main acts during that era were John Penn, with or without sidekick Dan Murphy. Penn was a great songwriter who we liked so much that in '73 we bought a Guild guitar just like he played.
The other was alternately called The Group and Katz N Jammers, led by flutist, harmonicat and vocalist Greg Carroll. They played jazz (jazz that we actually liked: Les McCann's "Compared to What," Horace Silver's "Song for My Father") and blues (Butterfield), and, while we generally look askance at harmonica players, Carroll was, by far, the best we've ever heard.
Enough of the past tense, though, because the greatest news possible is this: The Group/Katz N Jammers are playing a reunion concert in their old hometown during the godly hours of 2 till 8 p.m. on Labor Day, Sept. 3 at Lund's Tantalum restaurant in Marina Pacifica.
There's no cover and Happy Hour prices will be in effect. You should probably go.

Sound Isolation or as some might call it sound - proofing, is often the most underestimated aspect of acoustic treatment for a home theater. Many believe that by adding acoustic panels to the walls and or ceiling, all sound can be stopped from entering or exiting the theater space. This is untrue. Acoustic Panels only provide noise control, which refers to treating noise from within a space. More information on this is available in the Acoustic Treatments section of this site. Sound Isolation refers to limiting how much noise reaches the room from the outside and how much of the sound in the room leaks to the outside. A well isolated space must address both sound transmission factors and impact resonances. Acoustic Innovations offers five different solutions to meet these goals all of which can be classified into two categories of functionality:
Sound TransmissionSounds that leave the theater are generally low frequency waves coming from the subwoofer or any speaker with a low cross-over. Since the shapes of these waves are wide with a broad dispersion pattern, they are able to travel well beyond a 2x4 wall structure covered with drywall. The act of sound traveling through a substrate is called sound transmission and the strength in which the sound passes through a material is measured by a rating called STC (Sound Transmission Class). Soundcor Green, Iso-Floor, and Iso-Pads fall under this category.
Impact ResonanceThe most conflicting sound that enters the space is foot fall. When someone is walking on a floor above the home theater room, the energy from their steps is transferred to the floor and from the floor into the sound sensitive area if the home theater structure is not decoupled properly from the rest of the home. Foot Fall can also include other vibrations from the home. These sounds can be very distracting to those watching a movie as not only can it be heard but felt in some cases. Foot Falls are measured by a rating called IIC (Impact Isolation Class) and products such as our Iso-Clips and Iso-Blocs are in this category. Sound Isolation products are measured for performance, differently then Acoustic Panels. Learn more here.

City of San Jose Quarterly Employee Discipline Report:
Web Link
A few years ago, the City of San Jose invested a citizens' commission with the task of investigating problems with the City's "openness". This resulted in a so-called Sunshine Commission:
Web Link
A goodly number of the Commissions suggestions were adopted by the SJ Government.
It's a shame every local government does not have the commitment to openness that San Jose does.

So its unclear. Was the reporter legally entitled to the information she was requesting? If the answer is no, her gripe is nullified.
Maybe that's why they inserted a seemingly non-connected issue where someone was denied info they apparently were legally entitled to...a story that happened 2 yrs ago.
Simple question to the reporter: Were you LEGALLY entitled to be provided the info you requested?

I'm not the reporter in question, but I can give Hmmm a simple answer to his/her simple question: Yes, anyone would be legally entitled to the information she was requesting.
Read carefully. The piece says that "she wasn't seeking any identifying information, which the city would be unable to provide legally because of laws protecting the privacy of public employees, particularly police officers. She also noted in her request that the city of San Jose maintains a public database that reports on a quarterly basis disciplinary actions and outcomes involving all city employees, including police officers."
There's an implicit question in the second sentence in that paragraph: If the city of San Jose understands that this is public information v. confidential information, what's Menlo Park's problem?

If denied a legal request for information, will the Almanac sue? Why not? It sounds like they have standing to do so. If not the Almanac, then who? Lets do more than complain in the paper if laws are being ignored.

They are secretive in Los Altos, too, when one of their own is caught in a misdeed. remember the cop who tail ended a car parked at a stoplight? he was chatting on his cell phone.

Im sad to say this. Maybe Menlo Park needs to be sued for with holding information from the press and public. Seems like this is a ongoing issue.

Alternative rock band Toad the Wet Sprocket performs live in the South Shore Room at Harrah's Lake Tahoe on Saturday, February 1, 2014.
Toad the Wet Sprocket is the name of the four piece California rock band consisting of lead singer Glen Phillips, guitarist Todd Nichols, bassist Dean Dinning, and drummer Randy Guss. From 1989-1998, they released five studio albums which combined sold over four million copies, had five major radio hits, and won over audiences across North America and Europe.
After breaking up in 1998, Toad would get together sporadically to play shows on a casual basis, but their hard core fans never gave up hope for a new album. After successful tours in 2006-2010, the band finally decided to put the last piece of the puzzle in place and committed to working together on new music. They also decided to update their classic catalog by assembling a new greatest hits album, All You Want (2011).

Dzhokhar hears rights, goes silent
(NEWSER) – Revelations from Dzhokhar Tsarnaev have dribbled out over the last three days, but that may be about to change. Right after hearing his Miranda rights read, he stopped talking, officials tell the AP. The silence came sixteen hours after law enforcement began interrogating the Boston suspect; during that period, he said his brother had just recently convinced him to join in the bomb plot. Cooperating with officials, however, could be Tsarnaev's best hope of avoiding the death penalty, Bloomberg notes. Another option: Show that his brother "brainwashed" him.

Tressel back to Youngstown State?
(Youngstown) -- Could the next stop for former Ohio State head football coach Jim Tressel be the president's office at Youngstown State University? A group of prominent community members in Youngstown are hoping that's the case.
YSU is looking for a new president, and a group of Youngstown-area community leaders have written to the YSU Board of Trustees asking that they consider Tressel for the job. It would be a homecoming for Tressel, who was YSU's head football coach before heading to Ohio State.
U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan (D, Niles), who is leading the effort, admits that Tressel's academic record is not extensive, but says the former coach has strong leadership skills, vision, and an ability to build collaborations. Tressel is currently an administrator at the University of Akron, holding the title of Vice President for Student Success, and reports directly to U of Akron's president.
The YSU Board of Trustees is looking for a replacement for President Randy Dunn, who announced this week he's leaving to become president of Southern Illinois University.

Iggy Azalea shares opinion on Lorde's Nirvana tribute
Listen to Iggy Azalea on iHeartRadio | Listen to Lorde on iHeartRadio
Iggy Azalea is taking issue with Lorde's tribute to Nirvana at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.
In a new interview with Billboard, the "Fancy" rapper says she has nothing "against" the 17-year-old, but feels she wasn't the right choice for the occasion. Iggy says that in her opinion, tributes to musicians who have passed away should only be done by their peers -- and that "Lorde is not Kurt Cobain's peer."
The Australian rapper adds that it doesn't matter that Lorde "killed the performance" of Nirvana's "All Apologies," she "just [doesn't] think it's appropriate."
Others who performed at the Induction Ceremony back in April include Joan Jett, Kim Gordon and St. Vincent.

BENTON HARBOR, Mich. — Whirlpool Corp. announced that it was inducted into the Made in the USA Foundation's Hall of Fame at an awards dinner on July 2 in Santa Monica, Calif. Whirlpool was the winner of the Large Kitchen Appliances Category.
At the Made in the USA Foundation's second annual Hall of Fame celebration, 22 winners were announced from 76 nominees. The foundation was established in 2010 to honor and celebrate companies who contribute to American manufacturing, labor and environmental standards, job creation in the United States, and promotion of American-made products. The nominees are evaluated by three criteria: quality, competiveness and impact.
Cliff Chewning, regional manager for customer service in the Western and Pacific States for Whirlpool Corporation, attended the awards dinner earlier this month. "Whirlpool Corporation has become the largest home appliance company in the world with more than 23,000 U.S. employees. Yet our business was started in the United States in 1911, and we continue to invest in the U.S. to the level of $1 billion over the current five years," says Chewning.

I know a very talented man called David Wood http://www.david-j-wood.co.uk/Recent.htmAs well as painting, he writes plays. When he directed one in an am dram contest, the judge said he didn't think the director had quite grasped what the author meant... I wish I'd been there to see his face when the cast collapsed in hysterics.
And I tend to be the other way around. I can sew very well, and so many people say that I'm 'creative', but honestly, I'm a mechanic. I can follow a pattern. I can pick out a cool fabric and follow a pattern. I can even, sometimes, come up with something from a picture. But PLEASE, please don't ask me to design something with an offset hem, or off the shoulder, or even try to decide where to put a line of lace. I simply can NOT make something from nothing. It doesn't exist in my head. I need directions and a pattern.

Thank you for this thread! It makes me feel not so alone I've always been a pretty good baker and I regularly make goods at home for DH and myself to enjoy. I've also recently learned to quilt, having wanted to for years and finally got my first sewing machine in January. Somehow, I got it into my head that in addition to a smaller purchased gift for SIL's birthday several months ago, I also wanted to make her a quilt since she's complained of always being cold in her apt, etc. Plus I'm new to this craft and wanted to practice, and it gave me an excuse to buy more fabric After spending more than $80 on materials (normal bday budget is $20, which SIL set the rule for) and 30 hours piecing and quilting, it was complete and DH and I both thought it was great. I'm not invited to their family time on the weekends so sent DH with the gifts for her and this is what he reported back to me:SIL: (opening gifts) Oh... Is this a quilt? Did Raina make this?DH: She sure did! We thought you could use it for the couch or something since you said you're always cold.SIL: Well... It's very well coordinated...DH: She spent weeks making it and designing it.SIL: Where's my birthday cake? Did Raina make one for me?DH: No, she didn't have time because she spent so much time on the quilt.SIL: But I already told my co-workers that I'd share my cake with them!!
Im getting hung up on why you would make someone who has events that you're not allowed to attend a quilt.But after that conversation, I certainly wouldn't be baking, sewing, or buying for her ever again.

Jussila records the shutout in Tornados 0-0 tie with BluefieldSeptember 10, 2011
Brevard unable to connect on 18 shots in game against Rams
Brevard, N.C. - Tommi Rasinmaki attempted a team-high three shots and Landon Reid placed two on target as the Tornados outshot visiting Bluefield College on Saturday afternoon at the BC Soccer Field, but the goalkeepers reigned supreme as both Pauli Jussila and Jefferson Watson came through with shutouts as the teams tied after the second overtime period, 0-0.
The Tornados (0-3-1) held the early advantage in the contest, attempting 10 of the first 14 shots in the game, but only two were on target as neither team was able to score in the opening 45 minutes.
Watson rose to the challenge in the second half, as both teams peppered the goals with eight shots apiece, with Watson recording four saves for Bluefield, while Jussila held off a late charge by the Rams, as neither team was able to score in regulation.
In the first extra period, Bluefield got off one shot, which Jussila made a diving stop to keep the Tornados in contention, but neither team was able to record the golden goal to end the match, as Brevard and Bluefield both recorded their first tie on the season.
The Tornados return to the road next week as they begin a five game road trip, opening with a neutral site match against UNC Pembroke, which will be held in Rock Hill, S.C. on the campus of Winthrop University. Kickoff between the Tornados and Braves is set for 7 p.m.

— When Lucas Ransom and Matthew Garcia waded into the heavy surf with their bodyboards to challenge 6- to 8-foot waves, the Northern California college students knew there was a possibility — albeit a remote one — that they could be attacked by sharks that feed on seals, sea lions and other marine mammals.
"I heard they were joking about that. Every surfer kind of has that in the back of your head," Travis Ransom, Lucas' older brother, told TODAY's Ann Curry on Monday. "You go out there to enjoy life and celebrate it. You don't really think about it."
But instead of celebrating life, Matthew Garcia witnessed the violent death of his 19-year-old friend that day. Despite Garcia's attempts to save him, Lucas Ransom quickly bled to death after a shark estimated at 16 to 18 feet long mauled his left leg.
'Help me, dude!'
According to Garcia, the attack about 100 yards off Surf Beach came without warning and turned perfectly blue water red in an instant.
"When the shark hit him, he just said, 'Help me, dude!' " Garcia told The Associated Press. "He knew what was going on."
Ransom's mother, Candace, told Curry during a live interview on Monday that she was not thinking about sharks when she implored Lucas, a junior studying chemical engineering at the University of California, Santa Barbara, not to go "boogie-boarding" without studying the area more closely first.
Because of the swells Lucas Ransom was telling his mother about, she was concerned that her son with "sparkling eyes" and a "smile that would melt your heart" might drown in a strong undertow or suffer a "broken neck" from a fall off the board.
"He was so excited. He said, 'Mama, there are 10-foot waves,' " Candace Ransom said. "I was concerned for his safety … He was in an area where he had never been before."
Lucas, who had planned to surf for just a short time before heading for classes at the nearby UC Santa Barbara campus, told his mother not to worry.
"He said, 'Mom, I'll be fine. I'll give you a call when I get out,' " Candace Ransom told Curry.
Rare phenomenon
Despite being aware of the risk of shark attack, Lucas, as a certified lifeguard and longtime surfer, probably also knew that fatal attacks were also rare.
Experts say that sharks like the one that killed Ransom — most likely a great white — sometimes mistake surfers wearing dark wetsuits for the marine mammals they feed on.
Although he and Garcia joked the night before about the possibility one of them could be bitten by a shark, Ransom enjoyed the rush of adrenaline he got from surfing, water polo and other sports.
"He really loved living life to the fullest," said his father, Matthew Ransom. "He just wanted to have fun, and he was safe about most things."
Travis Ransom said he is certain that his younger brother got the thrill he was searching for in the surf before he was attacked without warning by the shark.
"It's hard to put into words what you feel out there," said Travis, who sometimes accompanied his brother surfing. "You are out with the ocean. Nothing else matters when you are riding the waves. It's an amazing feeling … I know he felt it while he was out there before the event happened."
Candace Ransom said she was "blessed" to have Lucas as her son, and regrets that he did not live long enough to realize his dreams of graduating from college next year and making a difference in other people's lives.
Toward those goals, the family is looking into establishing a scholarship in Lucas' name to fund tuition assistance for underprivileged students pursuing degrees in chemical engineering at the University of California.
The last known shark attack in the area where Lucas Ransom was killed was in 2008, when what was believed to be a great white bit a surfer's board. The last fatal shark attack in the state was that same year, when a 66-year-old triathlete bled to death after a shark bit his legs.

Salisbury, N.C. - The Tornados traveled to Catawba Friday afternoon for their season finale only to be turned away by the Indians who topped Brevard 6-0. The loss leaves the Tornados tied with Mars Hill in conference standings requiring a coin toss to see which team will compete in the tournament.
Catawba's victory Friday afternoon boosted them to 12-4-2 and 5-2-1 in the SAC while the Tornados fell to 6-10-1 and 0-7-1 in the SAC.
The Indians scored two goals in the first half. Their first goal came in the 13th minute when Laela Ghorbani connected a long pass to Alyssa Retundie who headed a goal in. Then in the 21st minute Katie Gair scored an unassisted goal when her shot deflected into the left corner of the net.
The Tornados were unable to take a shot until the 51st minute when Allie Hovis and Nikki Peacock took back to back shots on goal forcing Catawba keeper, Lindsay Webster to make the saves. Peacock threatened to score again ten minutes later, but was once again turned away by Webster.
The Indians scored two goals within minutes of each other in the second half. Erinn Wescoat scored in the 67th minute followed by a penalty kick goal from Tasha Wilhelm in the 69th minute. Maria Borland and Amanda Beck each added a goal late in the second half making the final score 6-0.
Senior goalkeeper Sydney Douglas, in her final regular season game as a Tornado, saved 9 of 15 for Brevard.
In addition to Douglas, Kayla Yingst, Jessica Guadagno, Chelsea Shew, and Kelly Harris also played the final regular season game of their careers and will wait to find out if the team will receive a bid to the conference tournament.
The Tornados tied Mars Hill 1-1 on October 16 at home giving the teams identical 0-7-1 records. A coin toss tomorrow will decide which team will receive one of the eight bids to the conference tournament which begins next Wednesday November 4.

Hi there. I'm designing a website for a client and they provided me with this copy of their logo (click thumbnail below) which is the largest resolution file size they have. I'm trying to find a stock vector graphic to purchase that is the best match for the sitting woman with her leg up and her hand behind her head. Has anyone seen something that would be a halfway decent match for this picture? I've looked but can't find a good one. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much.
Attachment is not valid. You could use Fiverr to find someone to vector design this for you.
I've approved the attachment so you can see it now.
Opening it up in Illustrator or a free vector graphics program, you should be able to trace it and clean it up in 3 hours. It isn't that complex.
You could also print it out extremely large on photo paper, then trace the outlines with a fine-point pen, color inside with a fine-point brush and black paint, and you're done. Scan it back into the computer at high rez, then save copies at smaller rez.
Break out of the use of the computer once in a while.
Webinsane: Thanks for the recommendation. I've never actually tried Fiverr but it might work. I've already messaged a few sellers to see if they'd be able to do it.
StevenHu: I'm OK with Illustrator but I'm not an artist so I don't think I'd be able to do a good enough job.
The best way to deal with that would be to print it. Than use a scanner to scan it at a hight resolution like 1200 and turn into a bitmap. Considering the art is only black and white that should give you what you need to than be able to use the bitmap at any necessary resolution.
Here is that image converted to a very large bitmap. The resolution should be enough to deal with just about any format. Also, if you would like to change the color simply drag a swatch from illustrator or indesign after placing the graphic in those programs.
IF you want solid colors in the logo, Illustrator tracer tool should do the job

Rated 5 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tristen8 It Is All About the Fit! Most valuable feature of the Black Magic Catcher's Chest Protector is how it fits! Super protection without the bulk. The quality is exceptional for the price! Thank you, Easton, for making a superior product! March 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Livermore-Dad Perfect for U12 players. Bought this for my U12 AAA little league team. While the league provided us a couple , I wanted something a bit newer and give the kids wanting to play catcher something stylish to wear. The fit is perfect for anyone 9-11 years old, The adjustments are super easy! The Velcro fastener is so much nicer than the clip types, especially at this age. One problem I've found with some of these are they are too long and end up pushing the chest protector into the boys throat, this one does not. This is a good product for the price. Any coach or parent looking to get their kids/kid a better piece of equipment, this is it. March 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Deyoe77 Lightweight and easy to use This chest protector has already performed a spring and fall season with no problems at all. The Velcro attachment on one side helps our players get into and put of the gear quickly! March 2, 2013

Chief Keef released from jail early
Listen to Chief Keef on iHeartRadio
Chief Keef is again a free man.
According to the "Chicago Tribune," the embattled emcee was released Wednesday from the Cook County jail after serving just nine days of a 20-day sentence for testing positive for marijuana.
A spokeswoman for the Cook County Sheriff's office says the rapper earned his early release because of good behavior.
Chief Keef - born Keith Cozart - was taken into custody October 15th after a random drug test turned up positive for marijuana. Over the summer he was placed on 18 months of probation after pleading guilty to a speeding charge.
While behind bars, Chief Keef was set to appear in court for a paternity case, however, the judge rescheduled the hearing for December 10th.

text: As much of the past year as Bethenny Frankel and Jason Hoppy have spent apart, I assumed they had already split which is what I reported a long time ago. US Weekly has finally got on the bandwagon and says the couple's marriage is in trouble. The report must come from Bethenny or one of her friends because it describes Bethenny as driven and Jason as a slacker with no motivation at all. Oh, and Bethenny wants desperately to make it work but is unsure about Jason. Talk about throwing the father of your child under a bus and then riding back and forth over the limp body just to get your point across.

American Muslims have initiated a major campaign on the subject of Islam. Traveling around Chicago in a bus bearing a sign saying, "ISLAM" Got Questions? Get Answers! American Muslims responded to all kinds of questions on the subject of Islam and have been instrumental in 14 Americans accepting the faith.
The Americans involved are providing a great service with the aim of eradicating prejudice against Islam and providing true information on Islamic moral values.
This campaign, being run within the scope of the ICNA's (Islamic Circle of North America) GainPeace project, was initiated in order to preach Islam to non-Muslims and to clarify misconceptions that they may hold due to biased reports in the media.
The team traveling on the bus through the streets of Chicago stop frequently, preach the oneness of Allah and invite people to Islam in order to become acquainted with the true faith of all the prophets of Allah.
Muslims have an important responsibility to be instrumental in people attaining true guidance and to ensure they avoid what is evil by showing them what is good. However, it is only our Almighty Lord Who will bestow guidance. This responsibility incumbent upon believers is revealed as follows in the Qur'an:
Let there be a community among you who call to the good, and enjoin the right, and forbid the wrong. They are the ones who have success. (Surah Al 'Imran, 104)

(current BCS rankings, all times Central)
South Florida at #19 UCF (Friday, 7 p.m., ESPN): The Golden Knights, whose only loss was by three points to South Carolina, can clinch the American Athletic Conference title and an automatic bid to a BCS Bowl.
#16 Fresno State at San Jose State (Friday, 2:30 p.m., CBS Sports): The Bulldogs need a big win over a solid Spartan team in order to gain points in hopes of passing Northern Illinois in the BCS Standings to re-gain automatic qualifier status to a BCS Bowl.
#2 Florida State at Florida (Saturday, 11 a.m., ESPN): The Seminoles have their sights set on the BCS Championship game and are not expected to be threatened by a reeling Florida team - however, a huge upset by the Gators would be a satisfying way to end a disappointing season.
#3 Ohio State at Michigan (Saturday, 11 a.m., ABC): The Buckeyes need to remain undefeated and hope for a slip-up from Florida State or Alabama, but archrival Michigan would like nothing more than to play spoiler.
#24 Duke at North Carolina (Saturday, 11 a.m., ESPN2): In one of the more surprising developments of the year, Duke can capture a slot in the ACC Championship game and keep alive for a BCS Bowl bid; a win over the rival Tar Heels would also mark the Blue Devils first 10-win season since 1941.
#1 Alabama at #4 Auburn (Saturday, 2:30 p.m., CBS): Surprisingly, the Iron Bowl has never been played with an SEC Championship game bid on the line, until this year when the red-hot Tigers host the undefeated and consensus number-one ranked Crimson Tide.
#6 Clemson at #10 South Carolina (Saturday, 6 p.m., ESPN2): The Palmetto State rivals are both looking to build their impressive resumes with this showdown, but interestingly, a loss doesn't necessarily knock either out of the BCS picture as Clemson could still go as an at-large and the Gamecocks could still win the SEC East.
#21 Texas A&M at #5 Missouri (Saturday, 6:45 p.m., ESPN): The two SEC newcomers meet in Columbia with the Tigers needing a win to capture the SEC East title and a berth in the SEC title game.

I'm guessing this is kind of useless without the (overpriced and locked-down) SDK, but it's interesting to see how they did the electrodes (little sponge pads). Feel free to poke it and/or hack it, it's in the retail box on my hack shelf (south top shelf of east rack labeled "Jon F").

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 21/7/2011 (2195 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
MINOT -- The state fair -- the biggest fair in North Dakota that was supposed to start here this weekend and draw thousands of visitors and pours millions of dollars into this city's coffers -- is gone.
Three schools? Gone. Students will need to be bused elsewhere.
The zoo? Gone. The animals have been moved to other zoos across the U.S. Midwest and the Minot zoo won't reopen this year.
Four thousand homes? Gone. The Souris River, called its anglicized name -- Mouse River -- here, tried to wash this community away.
Those 4,000 homes didn't just get a little wet in the basement. Some 800 homes had more than three metres of water on the main floor. Joe Holzer's mother's home was one of them. Water rose past her ceiling and within half a metre of the roof's peak. All those homes must be demolished.
Another 2,400 homes had two to three metres of water inside them. It's not known what will happen to them.
About 800 homes suffered what they're calling moderate damage -- half a metre to two metres of water on the main floor -- and 132 homes were slightly flooded.
Then there's the trailer park, called Holiday Village, with its roughly 500 trailer homes. It's gone and won't be coming back. Speaking of Holiday monickers, the Holiday Inn was flooded and has been closed since late June.
Flood damage here is estimated at $1 billion. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has pledged $50 million to help.
Meanwhile, the state government's reticence on flood aid has been deafening. It's sitting on a budget surplus of more than $1 billion, thanks to royalties from the oil boom in northwestern North Dakota. However, it also has to contend with flooding in Bismarck and Mandan from the Missouri River.
Then there's the smell. In Minot's lower neighbourhoods flooded by the Souris River, there's not only the smell of muddy river water but the stench of raw sewage. The Souris took out sewage lagoons upstream of Minot and delivered them here.
But that's not all.
Minot has been pumping raw sewage into the Souris since June 1. The flood knocked out half the city's lift stations. That sewage is headed to Manitoba.
The water was 1.5 metres higher this year than the disastrous 1969 flood. But if the 1969 flood was disastrous, it's tough to put this one into words. "I call it 'the tsunami of the Plains,' " said Don Vitko, a tire salesman who generously provided the Free Press with a tour. "I'm still looking at it and shaking my head."
Sheds wound up on rooftops. Decks wound up in other blocks. Water smashed through garage doors and windows. The current was so strong it knocked homes off their foundations.
This community is still shell-shocked. Water left the worst-flooded area last Saturday. Huge mounds of ripped-out walls and furniture are piled on the curbs in front of those homes. The mounds virtually all look the same -- piles of drywall, pink or yellow insulation, beds, carpets, shelves, furniture. That's in neighbourhoods between the Burdick Expressway and the Souris River.
Some of those subdivisions have houses up to a century old. Minot started as a railway town, where the old steam engines stopped to get water out of the Souris River. But other flooded subdivisions are brand-new, built under the assurance they were protected by the Rafferty and Alameda dams built in Saskatchewan two decades ago that provide protection for a one-in-100 year flood.
This was a one-in-500 year flood.
You can see how high the water got by the mud staining the sides of buildings and houses. The flood lines are about two metres up from the ground but in some cases water submerged entire houses. And everything is encrusted with river mud, from the floors to the walls and even windows, as well as the lawns. The water killed the bottom of trees, producing another water line.
Ryan Callahan's home sat in smelly river water for 22 days. The water was up to his neck and his main floor is about 60 centimetres off the ground. Every wall in his house and basement has been removed. He and family and friends were pressure-washing the entire house to prevent mould.
Callahan's wife is due to give birth in about six weeks, and is staying in East Grand Forks to try to keep out of the heat and away from the stress. Callahan is living with a colleague from work.
Like everyone here, he doesn't know what comes next. He can hardly turn his attention to what the future holds. Friends, family and co-workers are just helping him put one foot in front of the other right now.
