Sac State Cools Off T-Bird Men
Related Links
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Jan. 7 - Jackson Stevenett posted his second double-double of the season with 24 points and 12 rebounds but Southern Utah struggled on the offensive end at the beginning of the game, then after coming back struggled to score midway through the second half Monday night, enabling Sacramento State to end the Thunderbirds' three-game Big Sky winning streak with a 64-59 win. SUU dipped to 5-8 overall and 3-1 in Big Sky play while Sacramento State improved to 7-5 overall and 2-2 in conference play.
After shooting their best percentage of the season in a 90-77 win at Northern Arizona on Saturday (.568) the Thunderbirds dipped to 32.2 percent on Monday night.
SUU was within one, at 41-40 after a Jayson Cheesman dunk with 9:32 to play, but turned the ball over three times and missed a shot on the next four possessions. Meanwhile Sacramento State scored on each possession to change the one-point edge into a 52-40 game with 5:20 to go.
The Thunderbirds battled back, pulling within five with 48 seconds to go but could get no closer than 63-59 with eight seconds to play.
SUU gave up two free points before the game started because of a technical foul for dunking in pre-game warmups, and then missed their first seven shots, to find itself down 12-0 before Jackson Stevenett finally got them on the board with a jumper at the 13:10 mark.
SUU fell behind by as many as 16, at 22-6, before finally making a run, pulling within 24-20 after a Stevenett tip-in at the 5:26 mark. Stevenett started the run with a layup, and after 3-pointers by Wade Collie and Damon Heuir, a Jayson Cheesman dunk, two Stevenett free throws and the tip in the Thunderbirds were back within four.
Sacramento State scored the next three points but the Thunderbirds got two free throws each from Heuir (after a technical foul on SAC's John Dickson) and Cheesman to pull within three, and after A.J. Hess grabbed a rebound on the defensive end Stevenett hit another jumper to pull the Thunderbirds within 27-26. Hess followed that basket with a steal and SUU had an opportunity to take the lead but Cheesman missed inside and Joe Eberhard got the rebound for Sacramento, was fouled, and hit two free throws to give the Hornets at 29-26 advantage at halftime.
"Sacramento State did a nice job of controlling tempo throught the game and they were more physical than us," SUU Coach Nick Robinson said. "They won the battle of the boards, and were able to get to the free throw line with their aggressiveness, so you've got to give them a lot of credit.
"They did a good job of taking us out of some of our sets, in terms of execution. Jackson had a nice game until the very end, he was aggressive throughout, he had a nice game but we've got to have other guys step up. Damon played well again but his seven turnovers were a little frustrating for us today.
"IN the second half we had good looks, both in the post and on the perimeter, but the shots just didn't go down for us," Robinson added.
NOTES: Cheesman moved into 10th place on SUU's single-season blocks list; his three rejections on the night gave him 31 on the season to move him past Norman Adams, who blocked 30 during the 1981-82 season ... Sacramento State shot 55 free throws but was able to convert just 29 of them while the Thunderbirds went to the line 21 times, making 15 ... SUU was out-rebounded, 41-38, breaking an eight game stretch of coming out on top of the rebounding battle.

I would buy this product again and again
By mam shopaholic
from Chicago, IL
We purchased the original Photo Printer as a Christmas present for our special needs sister. She loved it. Then we upgraded her iPhone and it didn't work with that printer. I contacted HS and they were so helpful in steering us in the right direction to replace this printer with the iPhone 5 compatible printer. It is absolutely the perfect item for her and she loves it.

Easy to use but poor resolution
By Mike
from Boston, MA
Unit easy to set up and use. However, requires custom paper/ink cartridges that I suspect will be high cost. Poor resolution, especially for users of high megapixel cameras that are used to seeing HD images on large screens. I would recommend this unit with the above limitations understood.
Not worth the money
By Business
from Emory, TX
This printer seemed very quick and easy to use and setup, however it was not as compatible as the online advertisement made it sound. We had issues with the correct model iPhones and even tried a professional camera with pictbridge capabilities and could not get it to work. There was a large lag time in the app trying to get each photo to print. Each photo printed blurry with blown out color. We had to take the phone off and re-dock it between each print.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Photo printer for iphone

Quite tempermental
By Peter
from Salt Lake City
I had high hopes for this printer. I wanted something so easy my wife could just plug in her phone, pick a photo and click. And this cube should do that. But it doesn't. The first six photos had only yellow and a half photo of red. It spit out print after print that way. Finally I powered off the phone and the cube and started over. I found that if I held the phone firmly on the printer, pushing back a little, it would only print one bad photo, but would then print some good ones. In all we have printed fourteen good photos and 19 bad ones. Expensive. We thought about returning the product, but the good photos really are top quality. We've decided to go ahead and pay the price for the bad ones and just order a lot of cartridges. We don't really print that many and we can live with the problem.
Love this printer

Difference between revisions of "Nested Cases"
From ErlangCentral Wiki
|Line 1:

Category:Best Practices]]
Category:Best Practices]]
Revision as of 04:41, 10 August 2008
This article describes one of the Erlang best practices. It is particularly difficult to trace errors when a programmer used many nested case statements in a single function.
Consider the following code fragment that implements a basic operation table:
1: function(Operation,Values) -> 2: case Operation of 3: null -> 4: null; 5: multiply -> 6: case Values of 7: [A,B] when integer(A), 8: integer(B) -> 9: {ok,A*B} 10: end 11: end.
As you can see, it contains a nested case (line 6).If we execute the multiplication operation, the code performs as expected:
(rvg@davinci)5> test:function(multiply,[5,2]). {ok,10}
Now, let us try an invalid operation:
(rvg@davinci)6> test:function(divide,[5,2]). =ERROR REPORT==== 25-Dec-2004::20:30:28 === Error in process <0.43.0> on node 'rvg@davinci' with exit value: {{case_clause,divide},[{test,function,2},{shell,exprs,6},{shell,eval_loop,3}]} ** exited: {{case_clause,divide}, [{test,function,2},{shell,exprs,6},{shell,eval_loop,3}]} **
As expected, the shell crashed with a case_clause. Now, let us try the same with invalid multiplication parameters:
(rvg@davinci)7> test:function(multiply,[5,2,3]). =ERROR REPORT==== 25-Dec-2004::20:33:05 === Error in process <0.47.0> on node 'rvg@davinci' with exit value: {{case_clause,[5,2,3]},[{test,function,2},{shell,exprs,6},{shell,eval_loop,3}]} ** exited: {{case_clause,[5,2,3]}, [{test,function,2},{shell,exprs,6},{shell,eval_loop,3}]} **
As you can see, the reason is still {case_clause,...}. In complex code, you would not easily figure out which case caused the problem. Let us fix the code:
1: function(Operation,Values) -> 2: case Operation of 3: null -> 4: null; 5: multiply -> 6: do_multiply(Values) 7: end. 8: 9: do_multiply([Value1,Value2]) when integer(Value1), 10: integer(Value2)-> 11: {ok,Value1*Value2}.
If we pass an invalid operation:
(rvg@davinci)11> test:function(divide,[5,2]). =ERROR REPORT==== 25-Dec-2004::20:37:54 === Error in process <0.60.0> on node 'rvg@davinci' with exit value: {{case_clause,divide},[{test,function,2},{shell,exprs,6},{shell,eval_loop,3}]} ** exited: {{case_clause,divide}, [{test,function,2},{shell,exprs,6},{shell,eval_loop,3}]} **
You can see that the case clause in function(...) cannot handle the divide atom. If we pass invalid parameters:
(rvg@davinci)12> test:function(multiply,[5,2,3]). =ERROR REPORT==== 25-Dec-2004::20:38:54 === Error in process <0.62.0> on node 'rvg@davinci' with exit value: {function_clause,[{test,do_multiply,5,2,3},{erl_eval,do_apply,5},{shell,exprs,6},{shell,eval_loop,3}]} ** exited: {function_clause,[{test,do_multiply,5,2,3}, {erl_eval,do_apply,5}, {shell,exprs,6}, {shell,eval_loop,3}]} **
It is clear that the problem is in do_multiply(...)
Better Solution:
1: -module(test). 2: -export([function/2]). 3: function(Oper,Val)-> 4: case {oper,Oper} of 5: {oper,null}-> 6: null; 7: {oper,multiply}-> 8: case {val,Val} of 9: {val,[A,B]} when integer(A), integer(B) 10: -> {ok,A*B} 11: end 12: end.
1: 4> test:function(multiply,[5,2]). 2: {ok,10} 3: 5> test:function(divide,[5,2]). 4: ** exception error: no case clause matching {oper,divide} 5: in function t:function/2 6: 6> test:function(multiply,[5,2,3]). 7: ** exception error: no case clause matching {val,[5,2,3]} 8: in function t:function/2
We've got much more clarity here as we KNOW where to find the atoms 'val' and 'oper'. We could use the atoms 'case1' and 'case2' if we would like to see which case caused the error explicitly. (Handling null cases is defensive)

According to the literature, "Cienna is an exciting new grape variety bred by the CSIRO Plant Industry by crossing Sumoll, a grape variety from Spain with Cabernet Sauvignon."
I opened this six months ago - the down under summer equivalent of what you are experiencing in the Northern hemisphere now.
Brown Brothers Cienna 2008 A radiant purple violet in the glass, sweet and syruppy but refreshing and fruity served straight from the fridge on a very hot summery afternoon. With its frizzante demeanour, it is like sparkling grape juice though much better with its thick vinous texture. Greatly appreciated by everyone on the day and perfect for a summer tipple if you are the driver. Just 5% alcohol by volume, it matches savoury and spicy hot as well as sweet. Yummy with strawberries, delicious with chocolate and surprising good with spicy Vindaloo. Just watch the bottle if the kids are around.
Price NZ$15.

text: What is the deal with so many people wearing those cheapo plastic square faced watches while surfing? Why not just wear a simple to read all purpose dive watch, steel with hands that point to the time? Wear no watch at all. The crew I know in Virginia doesn't subscribe to the watch thing. I see it only in NJ. I'm curious. Is surfing a sport that gets that many "trendy" people in it? Yeeech if yes!

Two-part modeling and SEM

Structural Equation Modeling
Sanjoy Bhattacharjee
posted on Wednesday, October 24, 2007 - 2:59 pm
Dear Prof. Muthen,
I have a cross-sectional dataset and fitting the following standard SEM model to estimate, where Y1 is binary and Y2-Y7 are ordered categorical indicators, X's are strictly exogenous variables and eta's are continuous latent variables.
Y1 = g(eta1)
Y2, Y3, Y4 = g(eta2)
Y5, Y6, Y7 = g(eta3)
Eta1 = f(eta2, eta3, X1);
Eta2 = f(X2);
Eta3 = f(X3);
I am using MPlus 4.0 and everything is fine with the estimation result. However, I want to modify the model introducing (Duan, Manning type) two-part rationale. In particular, we have the following situation:
Y0, a binary variable, indicates whether or not an individual participates in a program. Now, when an individual says yes to the participation question, we ask the question to generate Y1.
It is likely that the latent variables eta2 and eta3 influence Y0 as well
How could I do it in MPlus? Is there any theoretical paper which introduced factor analytic/SEM rationale in Duan-Manning type setup?
Thanks and regards
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Thursday, October 25, 2007 - 9:17 am
I think Duan-Manning worked in a regression setting and there I think the 2 parts of the model can be estimated separately because you can't identify a random effect correlation between them like you can in a hierarchical data setting such as the longitudinal data analysis considered in Olsen & Schafer's JASA article on 2-part growth modeling.
Thinking out loud, it seems the question then is if the SEM setting changes the independence of the 2 parts. I guess if Y0 is influenced by the same etas as Y1, then their factor loadings should be held equal across the 2 parts and therefore a simultaneous analysis of the 2 parts should be done. I guess this calls for doing 2-part modeling - see the Mplus DATA TWOPART option. I haven't seen such an application. We have a Kim & Muthen paper on our web site which does 2-part mixture factor analysis but there again you have hierarchical data in that you have multiple indicators - you have only one Y1 - so that is different.

Thank you Prof. Muthen. I just read your working paper on "two-part factor mixture model". It is really helpful and I believe this one should help to estimate my model. Besides, my model is simpler than yours. I am not dealing with the mixture portion.
Following is my model statement; where Y0 and Y1 are binary, Y2-Y7 are ordered categorical, and X0, X1, X2 and X3 are the vector of exogenous variables. Each of the X's has unique elements necessary for the model to be estimated.
(Now adding the two part rationale where Y0 indicates response to the participation question: 1=yes and 0 otherwise and Y1 is valid only if Y0 is 1)
Q1: What should I write in the model section NOW to make Y1 "conditioned on" Y0? On page 11 of your article you wrote "correlated". I might be confused but I don't think we are doing simple correlation.
Q2: Reviewer will ask for the likelihood function or the final sets of equations that MPlus calculate for the model when we combine regular SEM with Y0 in a Duan - Manning type framework. Is there any reference for that?
Thanks and regards
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Friday, October 26, 2007 - 10:03 am
Q1. You need to create the data in line with "DATA TWOPART" described in the User's Guide. This specifies missing on y1 when y0=0. There is no correlation that can be estimated here.
Q2. A related likelihood function is given in the Olsen-Schafer's article.

I want to simultaneously examine trauma exposure (binary) and PTSD symptoms as mediators of several covariate effects on an outcome variable. Rather than model trauma and PTSD symptoms separately, I want to examine them within the same model so that I can identify the effect of PTSD symptoms on the outcome, over and above the influence of trauma exposure. However, PTSD symptoms are conditioned on trauma exposure (PTSD symptoms are only valid if trauma=1). Is it sufficient to code PTSD symptoms as missing for cases with trauma=0? Also, because trauma exposure and PTSD symptoms may share predictors other than the covariates, I believe I need to specify the residual covariance between them. Is the syntax that I've used below an appropriate way to do this? I was also considering specifying the model using the TWOPART feature as you described above. Any advice on how to handle this issue would be much appreciated!
Categorical is trauma;
Missing are ALL (-99);

I think a Twopart approach is a bit more transparent than working with missing data approaches in this case. The two parts can have different predictors and different effects on the outcome.
I think a residual covariance can be specified as you do it here. But I don't think the residual covariance is identifiable, as it is in growth models. Perhaps a sensitivity analysis can be carried out, fixing it to different values to capture the effects of potential left-out covariates.

Thanks so much for your help.
When you recommend a sensitivity analysis, do you mean setting the covariance to different values and seeing which has the best fit (e.g., by inspecting the loglikelihood)? When I allow the model to estimate the covariance using the above syntax, the covariance is negative and most of the covariate effects on trauma exposure and PTSD symptoms are no longer significant (they are when the covariance is not estimated). Substantively, I would expect the covariance to be positive. Perhaps this means the model estimates are unreliable and I am better off constraining the covariance to a certain value as you suggested?
By the way, there are two reasons I thought it may be best to staty away from the twopart approach. First, I thought that I should try specifying PTSD symptoms as a count rather than continuous variable. Second, from the usersguide, it looks like when setting up the data to use twopart, cases with 0 PTSD symptoms would be coded as 0 on the binary part (no trauma exposure). However, some cases with trauma have no PTSD symptoms.

You can do two-part modeling with count outcomes - this is called hurdle modeling. The "continuous" part is a zero-truncated Poisson variable.
I didn't think the covariance you estimated was identified, so please send your output to Support.

In my two part Modell outut there ist the line:
Chi-Square Test for MCAR under the Unrestricted Latent Class Indicator Model
Could you please explain what the results tell me:
Value 100.355
Degrees of Freedom 130
p-Value 0.9749
is this the result for the continuous part?

This is a test of whether the data are missing completely at random. This cannot be rejected with a p-value of .9749 For further information about this test, see the Little and Rubin book.

Hi Linda,
I have a special question related to the mplus procedure two part with mediation.
Having a mediation on a binary Y which results from a two part data set , is the default a probit or logit modell. Concerning the standardization procedure to compare a*b and c-c'. There is already a stdy section in the output can't this be used or do i have to handcalulate the standardized effects via pi squared /3 and varinces ?
Next: following after standardization via the varince to compare the a*b with c-c' and testing the significance of the effect. Do i have to standardize the s.e. of the parameters also to do the sobel. is the formula for standardization of variance(ab) the same as for b(ab).
thanks in advence.

The default is a logit model. Note that the literature on indirect effects with a binary outcome y says that a*b will be different from c-c' and that c-c' is the wrong quantity to use.
You don't want to use a_stand * b_stand, but instead compute a*b and then standardize it by dividing by the estimated y SD and multiplying it by the x SD. That calculation can be done in Model Constraint using parameter labels given in Model. Model Constraint then also gives the significance, with SE calculated automatically by the Delta method (of which the Sobel formula is a special case).

posted on Sunday, March 04, 2012 - 2:46 pm
thanks Bengt, this all puzzles me seriously.
1) The a*b and c-c' problem I am aware. But I thought when standardizing both to the same scale they would be equal again (MacKinnon / Dwyer 1993)? Is this not true any longer? Could you please give a literature hint.
2) For the calculation: I am reading your 2011 paper "Applications of causally defined direct ..." . On the buttom of page 25 you state that " a latent mediator approach using logistic regression is not yet available in Mplus" <--> My X and M are latent constructs, y is a binary single variable --> Does this affect my calculations so that I have to switch to probit?
3) Could you please give a reference for the staandardization you describe?
your help is appreciated

hi Bengt,
I also tried to get bcbootstrap CI. Mplus tells me:
*** ERROR in ANALYSIS command
BOOTSTRAP is not allowed with ALGORITHM=INTEGRATION.
even after I switched to ema as algorithm.
Bengt O. Muthen

1) Look at the more recent paper
MacKinnon, D.P., Lockwood, C.M., Brown, C.H., Wang, W., & Hoffman, J.M. (2007). The intermediate endpoint effect in logistic and probit regression. Clinical Trials, 4, 499-513.
which is on our web site. Also look at the Imai and Vanderweele references in my paper.
2) I was not talking about a latent variable construct, but the case of an observed categorical variable m. The question was if the observed categorical m or the latent response variable m* behind m was the mediator of interest.
3)I don't know about a reference - it simply uses first principles for standardization where you always divide by the DV's SD and multiply by the IVs SD. The DV is y and the IV is x in an x-m-y mediation model.
Mplus does not yet offer bootstrap when numerical integration is needed. You can use Bayes if you are worried about non-normality of the a*b product.

I am using a two part model in mplus as my data show a high number of zero's.
Focussing at the quantitative part: the zero in the binary part are missings in the quantitative part. In this quantitative part I specified a latent factor. As I use FIML the missings process will take information from the information in distributions from the data.
I am concerned, these missing are not like missing data from a questionnaire – they have a meaning. So is FIML imputing the right way. But otherwise the deleting of missing cases will reduce the dataset to zero cases.
Can you give some comments on this issue please. Thanks a lot
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - 8:37 am
The missing on the continuous part due to the binary part being zero is not missingness of the regular kind, but simply a way to arrange the data in order to obtain the likelihood of the model in line with what is described in the Olsen-Schafer (2001) JASA paper that originated two-part growth modeling. They don't use the data arrangement that Mplus uses, but the two approaches have the same likelihood.
On top of this "structural" missingness you can have missing on the continuous variables even when the binary part is one. That kind of missingness is handled via "FIML" under MAR as usual.
Note that two-part modeling is different from ZIP modeling. The latter is a special 2-class model, whereas the former is not. Note also that two-part modeling with counts also has the name hurdle modeling often used in the literature. Mplus can handle ZIP and hurdle models.

Note also the interesting discussion in Olsen-Schafer (2001) at the top of the right-most column of page 742. This concerns counterfactuals and the expected response on the continuous variable with different values of the binary variable.
Alexander Kapeller

Hi Bengt,
this is hard to understand. puh.
So my interpretation is: there is no bias from the structural zeros in the continuous part, because the structural zero information ist left out in calculating the likelihood.
Put this to practice: it is not like estimating the model just without the cases with the structural zeros.
If I have 413 cases total, around 70% structural zeros mixed around in six y indicators of a latent variable eta, then the relationship beta between ksi and eta is based on the 30% remaining information in y connected to
a) all information of 413 cases in ksi
b) only that ksi cases which have an corresponding y (this I think is not the case)
c) ... - and there my understanding stops.
Is it also correct to say that there is not so much information left to calculate that beta.
Alexander Kapeller
posted on Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - 9:58 am
Hi Bengt, going on ..
concerning the Zip. I want to model an interaction effect with my continuous part, then mplus has really trouble with zip or zinb. I guess this comes from the 2class within the zip.
In the two part it is much more stable.
Considering a two part with an truncated poison at zero. how to tell Mplus that I have a truncated poison in the continuous part?
Isn't that a 2class model then?
As I understand, truncation is different to censoring. So the censoring (bi) specification should not be adequate as my y are positive continuous data.
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Tuesday, April 10, 2012 - 6:38 pm
Yes, 70% who have the binary indicator=0 is a large percentage. This reduces your power and also makes the analysis rely more heavily on model assumptions.
It is not clear to me if your continuous part corresponds to a continuous variable or a count variable. Only for count variables would ZIP, ZINB, or truncated Poisson be relevant.
A two-part model for a count outcome can be specified using the negative binomial hurdle model specified in Mplus using Count = u(nbh). See page 493 in the V6 UG.
posted on Wednesday, March 02, 2016 - 8:42 am
In the two-part model, are the two parts totally INDEPENDENT from each other? For instance, if I want to include a correlation between X (indicated with Binary X and Continuous X) and Y.
Do I have to specify both following paths?
Binary X with Y;
Continuous X with Y;
What I am wondering is whether I DOUBLE estimated correlations in the model by specifying both.
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Wednesday, March 02, 2016 - 6:44 pm
Are you regressing Y on X and you want to treat Y as two-part?
It sounds like X is two-part which is strange if Y is the DV.

On Point: Getting to Know David Stearns
Harvard Man Enjoys Texas Experience
By Michael Point / Corpus Christi Hooks | February 4, 2013 10:27 AM ET
AUSTIN - On an East Austin playground under bright Central Texas skies, David Stearns is directly involved in a youth movement.
He's participating in a stop of the Astros CAREavan, organized by the RBI Austin organization. Stearns, along with Astros All-Star Jose Altuve, first baseman Brett Wallace, broadcaster Bill Brown and franchise legend J.R. Richard, is in the middle of a clinic for young players, some only five or six years of age. And, just like the kids, he's having a great time.
"When I got hired by the Astros they mentioned how youth-oriented the team was but I never expected to be on the field with players this young," Stearns jokes.
The 28-year-old Stearns, who graduated from Harvard in 2007, is part of the franchise's front office youth movement, one that parallels the team's unusually young composition. His title is assistant general manager and, in keeping with GM Jeff Luhnow's approach, his duties cross over traditional baseball job descriptions.
"Jeff believes in having a collaborative staff," Stearns explains. "He wants input from everyone on almost all decisions so we're all involved to some degree in most aspects of the organization."
Stearns's involvement with baseball came as a result of setting his mind on a career while in high school. He began working diligently toward that goal, applying for jobs as a freshman in college before ultimately landing an internship with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Through that job, as well as earlier relentless pursuit of baseball employment, he made enough contacts to segue from college to a job with the Arizona Fall League and then the New York Mets. Next came a position in the Commissioner's Office for a three and a half years.
In the Commissioner's Office he served as a labor relations manager and member of MLB's negotiating committee during the Collective Bargaining Agreement talks. Prior to getting the call from Luhnow, Stearns was on the baseball operations side of the Cleveland Indians front office as director of contracts, strategy and analysis, a resume that made him a perfect fit for the current Astros approach.
The new era of the Astros organization is firmly based on player development. But Stearns says there will be no rush to advance players before their time.
"We definitely intend to challenge players," he states. "But we want them to be successful as well so we won't be into artificial deadlines regarding when they move up a level. We'll trust our staff in the field, as well as the analysts in the front office, to determine the right time for each player."
Stearns, like most of the newly-hired Astros front office personnel, is familiar with the franchise's minor league talent through their statistics and scouting reports. But he's intent on embellishing that perspective by seeing as much live action as he can. And Whataburger Field is one of his prime destinations.
"I've heard nothing but great things about the Corpus Christi," Stearns says. "Everyone I've talked to says the stadium, the fans and the whole operation creates an experience above and beyond most other minor league affiliates. That's the sort of excitement we're working on building in Houston so it's great the players are already enjoying its benefits there."
After finishing his duties with the youthful players on the RBI playground Stearns and party, which had visited the Dell Children's Hospital earlier in the afternoon, head out for an autograph session. But before leaving he affirms his presence at Whataburger Field is preordained.
"I'm looking forward to not only visiting Corpus Christi but to also spending a lot of time there during the season because that's where the future of the franchise is."

Managing tension headaches at home
A tension headache is pain or discomfort in your head, scalp, or neck, usually associated with muscle tightness in these areas. Tension headaches are one of the most common forms of headaches. They may occur at any age, but they are most common in adults and adolescents.
Tension headaches occur when neck and scalp muscles become tense, or contract. The muscle contractions can be a response to stress, depression, a head injury, or anxiety.
When You Have a Tension Headache
Hot or cold showers or baths may relieve a headache for some people. You may also want to rest in a quiet room with a cool cloth on your head.
Over-the-counter painkillers such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or acetaminophen may relieve pain if relaxation techniques do not work. If you are planning to take part in an activity that you know will trigger a headache, taking one of these painkillers beforehand may be helpful.
Follow your health care provider's directions about how you are taking medicines. Rebound headaches -- headaches that keep coming back -- may occur from overuse of painkillers. Patients who take pain medication more than 3 days a week on a regular basis can develop rebound headaches. Aspirin and ibuprofen can irritate your stomach. Your daily dose of acetaminophen should not be over 4,000 mg.
Preventing Tension Headaches
Understanding your headache triggers can help you avoid situations that cause your headaches. A headache diary can help. When you get a headache, write down the day and time the pain began. The diary should include notes about what you ate and drank over the past 24 hours, how much you slept, and when and what was going on in your life right before the pain started. Also write down information about how long the headache lasted, and what made it stop.
You may need to make lifestyle changes if you have chronic tension headaches. This may include changing your sleep habits (usually to get more sleep) and getting more exercise. In some situations, you may need to change your job or sports activities.
Other tips to prevent tension headaches:
- Use a different pillow or change sleeping positions.
- Practice good posture when reading, working, or doing other activities.
- Exercise and stretch your back, neck, and shoulders often when typing, working on computers, or doing other close work.
- Have your eyes checked. If you have glasses, use them.
- Learn and practice stress management. Some people find relaxation exercises or meditation helpful.
If your health care provider asks you to take medicines every day to prevent headaches or help with stress, take them the way they were prescribed. Make sure you report any side effects.
When to Call the Doctor
Call 911 if:
- You are experiencing "the worst headache of your life."
- You have speech, vision, or movement problems or loss of balance, especially if you have not had these symptoms with a headache before.
- The headache starts very suddenly.
Also, call your doctor if:
- Your headache patterns or pain change.
- Treatments that once worked are no longer helpful.
- You have side effects from medication.
- You are pregnant or could become pregnant -- some medications should not be taken during pregnancy.
- Your headaches are more severe when lying down.

Coca-Cola to
cut 750 jobs
Coca-Cola is axing 750 jobs in the U.S. to streamline its business. The beverage maker said the cuts will be across the board and that affected individuals will be notified in coming weeks. The layoffs represent roughly 1 percent of the company's workforce of 75,000 in North America.
Jobless claims
at 5-year low
The number of people seeking unemployment aid barely changed last week, while the average over the past month fell to a fresh five-year low, signaling a decline in layoffs and a stronger job market. The Labor Department said weekly unemployment benefit applications rose 2,000, to 336,000. The four-week average fell 7,500, to 339,750, the lowest since February 2008.

'"We're really going to have to grind through a session here where we're down a lot of manpower," coach Lindy Ruff said Thursday after a short Thanksgiving practice session. "Playing against a healthy team last night, a full lineup against six guys out, that effort was worthy of a win [during a 4-3 shootout loss to Boston]. We didn't get it. We're disappointed. But I'm just telling you, we play that way, play that hard, we'll get the W's."'

2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Eric Norwood, OLB, South Carolina
Norwood is one of those rare college athletes who stick around for four years and are absolute forces in all four of those seasons. The Gamecock linebacker arrived in Columbia in 2006 and promptly tied for the team lead with seven sacks as a freshman. He was named to the All-SEC First Team as both a sophomore and junior and he was even better as a senior. Norwood led South Carolina in the following categories: solo tackles (55), tackles for loss (11.5), sacks (tied with seven), interceptions (two), quarterback hurries (11) and blocked kicks (three). He finished second in both assists (26) and total tackles (81). Even without such a remarkable 2009 campaign, Norwood was already the program's career leader with 43 tackles for loss and third with 22 sacks after just three seasons. It goes without saying that Norwood is an extremely durable player, as he never missed a single game in his college life. Not only will NFL scouts be thrilled with that, but they also have to love Norwood's speed that makes him a standout outside 'backer. Norwood projects as a outside linebacker in a 3-4 NFL defense or perhaps a defensive end in a 4-3. He lined up at DE several times for the Gamecocks despite playing primarily as an OLB. He is a bit undersized at 6'1' and 252 pounds so a firs-round selection is unlikely, but he will almost certainly be off the board prior to the end of round two.

'"That first goal was something we didn't expect," added Satan, who tied the game at 1 and later assisted on both the game-winner by Daniel Briere in the third period and an empty-net insurance goal by Jochen Hecht. "It gave us a chance to start over again and we took it."'

Ceredo-Kenova Park and Ride at I-64 Exit
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Plans for a park and ride and visitors center at the Ceredo-Kenova exit of Interstate 64 are moving forward.
Huntington City Council on Monday unanimously approved a resolution supporting the project.
Officials say the park and ride lot will save commuters time and money,improve air quality and conserve non-renewable energy resources. They say a visitors center would showcase local and regional activities -- generating more spending in the area.
"I believe there are ten million plus cars that travel along Interstate 64 in a year," Councilman Mark Bates said. "If we can just capitalize on just a small portion of that, then that helps our economy."

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer
ARLINGTON — Lisa Clarke had her first kiss in the Olympic Theatre. Even now when she attends a movie there, she always sits in the same seat.
A 1988 graduate of Arlington High School, Clarke now lives in Kirkland. Frequently though, she heads north to visit her family. When she saw a friend's post on Facebook that the Olympic's future was in jeopardy, Clarke, 43, jumped in to help.
For nearly two years, people in town worried that the 74-year-old, single-screen movie theater wouldn't keep up as Hollywood studios turned from film to digital delivery of their movies.
The problem was that the conversion to digital was too expensive for longtime theater owner Norma Pappas to accomplish on her own.
A volunteer community group called Save the Olympic Theatre rallied to raise money for the digital conversion.
As the word got around, other people such as Clarke stepped in to help form a nonprofit foundation that will oversee the Olympic's future.
The board of the foundation includes Pappas.
The foundation has been recognized by the Secretary of State's office in Olympia and is on a list for an expedited nonprofit status from the Internal Revenue Service, said Clarke, who serves as president of the foundation.
The foundation and the community volunteers joined forces earlier this month.
They studied what other small theaters in the country were doing to solve the costly problem of converting to digital movie presentation. The group determined that the Olympic can keep operating with additional support from the community donated to the foundation, Clarke said.
"But it's going to take the ongoing commitment of a strong and experienced team of leaders to take this forward," she said.
A generous donor stepped forward in March to help buy the digital equipment needed for the Olympic.
By the end of summer, the foundation should be able to order and install the equipment, Clarke said.
The Olympic Theatre Foundation plans to form volunteer committees, launch a membership campaign and host its first gala fundraiser in October.
After Pappas retires from the theater and the foundation, the board plans to hire a general manager and rent the building from Pappas.
Information about the foundation is at www.OlympicTheatre.net.

'The Sabres had a playoff spot clinched going into the game and once again that showed as Buffalo had another lack luster performance. There was little effort, little heart, little grit on display for the Sabres. These poor performances have fans nervous as the team's season winds down and the playoffs start to loom on the horizon. In addition to the poor effort the Sabres struggled with poor passing and a number of shots that were fired wide of the net or just fanned on altogether.'

Eileen R. Tabios: I Take Thee, English, For My Beloved
Recipient of a 2005 Calatagan Award from the Philippine American Writers and Artists, Inc.
Eileen Tabios has an enormous tonal range in her poetry. A breathless intensity may be her most characteristic mode. — kultureflash: Headlines From London
Eileen Tabios is writing not only as if her life depended on it but also as if there were no tomorrow. For her, poetry is the only way to live, and she intends to suck the marrow and everything else out of it.—The Philippine Star
I Take Thee, English, for My Beloved contains and melds the forms of poem, memoir, art monograph, play, novel and questionnaire. Here are four discrete collections that would stand on their own but which, together, form the vibrant expanse of a book that affirms: not only does Eileen R. Tabios speak English but she loves English.
This collection is a "quar(quin)tet" partly because it contains a hidden (fifth) book—that book referenced by the series "Footnote Poems." The texts which generate the footnote-poems are not included, thus enabling a space where the readers play the roles of speculating what story(ies) is(are) being footnoted. This reflects Tabios' belief that a poet may begin a poem but the reader completes it. The resulting structure also manifests the paradox of how poems by themselves cannot capture the significances of Poetry as experience: that this book's true page count, like Poetry's expanse, is not fixed and, thus, is infinite.
Although Tabios' first poetry collection received the Manila Critics Circle National Book Award for Poetry in the Philippines, where she was born, she has lived for over three decades in, and is a citizen of, the United States. The initial impetus for this collection stemmed from her meditations on being fluent in only one language—but a language that colonized her birthland and about which she is still asked the question by strangers as she travels throughout North America: "Do you speak English?" This bespeaks the consistent "Other"-ing experience imposed by many on people of color, even second- or third-generation Americans.
Nonetheless, Tabios—a "transcolonial" poet—refuses to allow adverse socio-political elements to deter her from what she feels she must do as a poet, particularly as a poet of eros: to love her raw material of English. From such love, she not only crafts poems denoting a unique vision, but writings that transcend inherited literary forms. Tabios considers the term "transcolonial" to describe a postcolonial perspective that goes beyond the referenced context of colonialism. One result is the "hay(na)ku," a poetic form which Tabios invented as a community-making gesture; here, the community encompasses both Filipino and non-Filipino poets gathered together through a love of Poetry. This collection features the first publication of "The Official History of the Hay(na)ku."
This collection ends with a close reading by respected poet Ron Silliman of one of Tabios' poems. Silliman concludes, "Tabios tries for more in one page than many other poets would attempt in 20. And she pulls it off."
EILEEN R. TABIOS has released a poetry CD; three e-poetry collections; and written, edited or co-edited thirteen books of poetry, fiction and essays since 1996 when she traded a finance career for poetry. She is also a community-oriented conceptual artist who pens the infamous poetics blog "The Chatelaine's Poetics" at http://chatelaine-poet.blogspot.com; who invented the "Hay(na)ku" poetic form; and whose "Poems Form/From The Six Directions" project has been exhibited several times in California.
Part of mortality's significance is that wars end.
Yesterday, I determined to stop watering down my perfumes.
Insomnia consistently leads me to a window overlooking silvery green foliage—tanacetum argenteum—whose species include the tansy which Ganymede drank to achieve immortality.
Once, I could have been tempted.
But to be human is to be forgiven.
The man in my bed shifts, flings an arm across the empty sheet—gladly, I witness him avoid an encounter with desolation.
Soon, summer shall bring a snowfall of daisies across these leaves whose mottles under a brightening moonlight begin to twinkle like a saddhu's eyes.
I can feel my hand reaching to stroke the white blooms as gently as I long to touch a newborn's brow.
By then, I swear my hand shall lack trembling.
I am nearly done with homesickness for Year Zero.
This is my second-to-last pledge: insomniac thoughts understate my capacity for milk.
This is my last pledge: I will not drink until all—all of you—have quenched your thirst.
Perhaps This Second Drift
—after "First Drift" by Andrew Joron
If we diminish, to be diminished—this recurring punch line so alien with its familiarity: cruelty is a flawed strategy and yet we discover our cheek against its torso—
If we cannot be more than our least lazy possibilities—the "older woman" weeps from a tongue offered to create a future memory of silk black hose rupturing over thighs of moonshine—
Beauty is reductive. Therefore, within a shadow box my palm perpetually caresses the 45-degree rise of your belly for I, the "older woman," heard how human history whispers: men with flat bellies should be trusted rarely. Which does not obviate my clinging to the piano's highest scale—
Toward a man with colorless eyes who transformed me into a virgin so he could roll cigars from tobacco leaves pressed against the tendons riveting my thighs.
"An excessive choral indwelling," as if perfumed, cushioned salons did not prevent Cellini from feeling the blissful difficulty of art—as if Lorrain and Cezanne did not obsess over one problem for all of their lives: the landscape's inarticulate rhythm through boulders in sienna, in sepia.
After the Jewish artist hammered three rows of nails against a white wall to evoke 17th century prisoners convicted of infanticide, the lamp and shadows conspired to weave a lace border I wanted to hem on my sleeves.
—In Athenian vase painting, the red-figure style allowed artists to describe gesture and expression for the first time; the technical advance destroyed the harmonious relation of all-black figures against light grounds. From this enforced binary, simultaneity was birthed through dimorphic vases through which the same scene was depicted in both red and black. To witness simultaneity, one must turn the vessel.
"We also (wanting elision)" would be dung on your fields, grow there the honeysuckle I would sip and lather on your lips as I tear the stitches from your coat to unearth pages you once wrote surreptitiously. (By the flicker of a flame from a quarter-inch candle stub.) All is my fodder: All is my father.

text: Each year it seems like the producers go speak to a living legend they have on the show and tell them they are going to get voted off. Instead of actually going through with the humiliation of being voted off because they just don't have the same popularity any longer they let them save some face and quit. Last night was that night for Billy Dee Williams. Barely hanging on last week he knew his time would be done so he pulled out over back problems. I'm sure he has them and I'm sure he is hurting, but I also think he wanted to go out on his own terms. Something like this seemingly happens every year. Back in the day Billy Dee Williams was a huge sex symbol and he was in the Star Wars movies and he was the spokesperson for the beer Colt .45 and he was everywhere. It was great to see him and to give people who didn't know who he was, a chance to talk about him for a few weeks.

Salt games attract a crowd in Myrtle Beach
WCBD-TV: News, Weather, and Sports for Charleston, SC
From our News Partner at WCBD-TV:The first Native Sons salt games took place Sunday in Myrtle Beach. It took place from 9am to 11pm.
People competed in various sporting events at the beach. One of those events was the Surf City paddleboard race.
"Paddleboard race was nice. The wind kicked up just before we went out and made it pretty tough. Now the conditions are a lot better. But it was tough for people out there today," said Mark Allison, owner of Surf City Surf Shop.
There were also games for kids. At 11am there was the Ripley's Aquarium kids' shark run. There was also a contest called the Sea Salt Margarita challenge which asked participants to use their hair to collect as much water from the ocean as possible.
But it wasn't just about the games. Organizers said part of the money raised will go to an organization called Surfrider that helps to keep the beaches clean.
"Surfrider foundation is an international non-profit dedicated to keeping our oceans, waves and waterways clean. We educate, promote cleanliness and do beach sweeps," said Bruxanne Hein, a volunteer for the Grand Strand chapter.
On the surfrider foundation website it said plastics kill 1.5 million marine animals each year. They also said it's dangerous for our health and costs millions to clean up.
"In order for us to enjoy them [the beaches], and for future generations to enjoy them, as well as the quality of marine life, if we don't keep our oceans clean then we don't have fish to eat or any of the things we like to do in the water," said Hein.
Hein said the solution is for everyone to pick up their trash at the beach and to also pick up a few extra things.
The surfrider organization said paper litter can last 2-4 weeks. Cigarette butts can last 1-5 years. And aluminum cans can last at least 80 years. All of that they said has a negative impact on our environment.

You'd want to do airodump-ng mon0.
I'm having difficulty. I just installed BT5r2.
I did:
airmon-ng start wlan0
airodump-ng wlan0
now, the problem is, they scans do not automatically update. I would have to do it manually by either clicking REFRESH in Wicd Network Manager, or typing "iwlist wlan0 scan" in terminal.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I have successfully gotten my router's WEP password 2 times by mass clicking the refresh button but it doesn't work well, and doesn't work at all for WPA as far as I know.
Any advice would be appreciated.
You'd want to do airodump-ng mon0.
I made a batch file that fixed by problem but probably uses a lot of cpu usage.
File: a.bat
for (( n = 1; n < 5000; n++ )); do
iwlist wlan0 scan
This has fixed my problem and it refreshes all the wireless AP's and computers. I would still like to know how to fix my issue.

LONG BEACH - Multibillion dollar construction projects and the state of goods movement at the Port of Long Beach are expected to be part of the International Business Association's 10th annual State of the Port address on Thursday.
Hundreds of civic and business officials are expected to attend the Long Beach Area Chamber of Commerce event, which will present the address given by Port Executive Director J. Christopher Lytle.
This is the second time Lytle will give the address since taking over as chief of the nation's second busiest seaport in late 2011.
Lytle plans to discuss the port's $4.5 billion capital improvement program, which includes the replacement of the Gerald Desmond Bridge and the Middle Harbor project that fuses two aging terminals into one mega-terminal. The projects, which are already under construction, are expected to generate thousands of construction jobs and allow the port to remain competitive.
Lytle also plans to address the port's cargo numbers, which saw a surge in the last quarter of 2012, thanks to two major shipping lines that recently added services in Long Beach.
The State of the Port address will take place from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom of the Long Beach Convention Center, 300 E. Ocean Blvd.
For more information about the event, call 562-432-8128 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
