The most romantic of all the Saw films.
Best Saw Movie I have ever seen. The traps are incredible and smart and well thought. They are deadly and Jigsaw has came back.
BOO 2 was much scarier.
Terrible, sadistic movie without a plot.
Saw Movies rule horror..!
great to see saw back
Boring is not a good thing in a horror film.
weak attempt to capitalize on the success of the saw franchise .A fail in my opinion.
Such a mindless horror movie with a poor plot. Was hoping for a scare instead came close to a snore.

Anti-Inflammatory Drug May Improve Type 2 Diabetes Control
Joslin Diabetes Center scientists are taking groundbreaking research on the role of inflammation in type 2 diabetes to a new level with the launch of a national clinical trial to investigate whether salsalate, an anti-inflammatory drug used for years to manage arthritis pain, can reduce blood glucose levels in people with type 2 diabetes. If successful, the trial could lead one day to an inexpensive way to treat this most common form of diabetes, which has been increasing at epidemic rates in recent years.
About 560 adults with poorly controlled blood glucose levels are being sought to participate for one year in a clinical research study, referred to as Targeting Inflammation with Salsalate in Type 2 Diabetes (TINSAL-T2D). The study is being funded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), part of the National Institutes of Health. The study will be conducted at Joslin in Boston and at about 20 other medical institutions across the nation.
Initial studies by the Joslin group showed that salsalate was effective to lower blood glucose when given for 3 months, leading to the start of this larger trial of longer duration.
"These are very important studies aimed to test whether reducing inflammation can actually be used to treat diabetes," says principal investigator Steven E. Shoelson, M.D., Ph.D., the Helen and Morton Adler Chair and Associate Director of Research at Joslin Diabetes Center and Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. "Given what we are learning about how type 2 diabetes develops, we think this might be getting at an underlying cause. We hope the study shows that targeting inflammation is a safe and inexpensive way to treat type 2 diabetes. We also hope that reducing inflammation decreases risk for coronary heart disease, which is another theory that we will be testing in a separate clinical study in the coming months."
In the United States, nearly 24 million people have diabetes. Type 2 diabetes accounts for about 90 to 95 percent of diagnosed cases, representing nearly 10 percent of the adult population. Type 2 diabetes, previously called adult onset or non-insulin dependent diabetes, is a disorder in which muscle and fat cells do not use insulin properly. Type 2 diabetes is closely linked to obesity and puts people who have the disease at greater risk for complications, including cardiovascular disease, blindness, kidney disease and amputations. People with type 2 diabetes die at rates two- to four-times higher than those who do not have diabetes.
"Sedentary lifestyle and western diet have been associated with obesity and diabetes," says co-principal investigator Allison B. Goldfine, M.D., Director of Clinical Research at Joslin and Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. "The study medication, salsalate, which is chemically similar to aspirin but has fewer side effects, has been used for more than 40 years in people to treat pain associated with arthritis. Recent studies in people show that salsalate also lowers blood glucose, but further testing on long-term efficacy and safety specifically in patients with diabetes needs to be done."
"The outcome of this study has the potential for significant public health benefit," said Myrlene Staten, M.D., NIDDK's Senior Advisor for Diabetes Translational Research. "If salsalate improves the control of type 2 diabetes, we would have an inexpensive addition to our arsenal of drug options."
In previous studies Drs. Shoelson and Goldfine and their collaborators found that inflammation – an immune system response that normally fights infection and promotes healing – plays a major role in the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. These researchers were the first to show that a major trigger of inflammation – the transcription factor NF-kB – is activated in fat, liver, and other tissues of the body, perhaps providing the "missing link" between obesity and diabetes.
In a real bench-to-bedside victory, the researchers built on these discoveries by conducting clinical trials in patients with diabetes, testing anti-inflammatory salicylates, which inhibit NF-kB, as insulin sensitizers. In these patients, blood glucose and lipid levels substantially decreased, glucose uptake and utilization improved, and liver glucose production decreased. These findings of improved glycemia were recently confirmed when the drug was given for three months to patients with type 2 diabetes, laying the groundwork for the new clinical trial.
For the TINSAL-T2D study, the researchers are seeking adults ages 18 to 75 whose glucose levels are not in good control and who do not take insulin. Participants must be using no medication or be taking only one or two oral medications, among other criteria. Most participants can expect their involvement to last about one year.
Those volunteering to participate in the TINSAL-T2D study will undergo a variety of tests to determine if they are eligible. Participants selected for the study may receive either the study drug or a placebo. A placebo is an inactive pill that looks like the study drug, but a placebo contains no active medication. Placebos are used to determine if the results of the study are truly from the study drug. TINSAL-T2D study participants will receive all medication and treatments related to the study free of charge, and will continue to see their personal physician for all of their healthcare needs.

Way back in Oct 2003 i placed my first cache ever, outside Monument, CO.
It was named Herman's Lap (GCH01E) because it sits out on a ridgetop at
the base of Mt Herman. It was an ammo can, because at the time i thought
all caches were ammo cans
I have placed 75+ caches and i've lost a lot of them due to weather, vandalism, even one to bulldozers. But old Herman's Lap is still going
strong. I had placed a disposable camera in the cache, and recently a
Colorado cacher mailed the full camera to me. Even though the expiration
date on the camera was Dec '05!, all the pics came out great. I didnt
recognize anyone in the photos but it was apparent that everyone was
having fun.
And that's what it is all about.

Guards make dangerous backcourt for BSHS
The inside game with Cerbi Ritchey and Diamond Mayes is almost unstoppable and the same could be said for Valerie Ross and Mackenzie Stone's shooting efficiency.If that's sounds like a double-edged sword opponents want no part of, how much more dangerous are the Big Spring Lady Steers with speed in the backcourt? The answer: very dangerous. At least that's what head coach Mike Warren is counting on with LaShaunte Anderson, Bridgette Tuitt and Logan Yarbar. "You can't coach quickness," Warren said. "They either have it or they don't and those three right there are three of the quicker ones. That's what we'll see in district when we play Wylie and Brownwood. They're going to have that same type of speed, so I hope we'll be able to match up."So far, having the speedy guard in the backcourt has added another dimension to the Lady Steers' offensive and defensive attack.The quickness helps in a few different ways. Naturally, if defenders are unable to keep up with Anderson, Tuitt or Yarbar, getting to the basket is easier.But maybe where their speed is most effective is on defense, considering the full-court press the Lady Steers run.Warren has Tuitt and Anderson — and Yarbar when she's in — as the first line of defense in the full-court press. Their quickness allows them to trap, cause turnovers and turn those into fastbreak points. "I think when me and Bridgette or me and LaShaunte or Bridgette and LaShaunte — any of us really — are in, we trap really well," Yarbar said.The defensive pressure makes it hard for opponents to get the ball inside. Warren said their defense is their offense in this case. Even when the Lady Steers fall back into man-to-man, these guards are tough to score on."I love it when LaShaunte's up there with me because she pushes me and motivates me to want to do better, too," Tuitt said. "Together, we're unbeatable. Our defense is phenomenal. I'm just happy she's with us because it's another person to help succeed."Warren sees Tuitt as a point guard more than anything, but that's another plus with this group. Tuitt, Anderson and Yarbar can play at point guard, shooting guard or small forward. Yarbar especially has seen time at small forward. She said some teams just have one point guard, one shooting guard and one small forward. Having three players essentially vie for playing time at the same positions can present its problems, but Anderson said it's been the exact opposite with her, Yarbar and Tuitt. "When we're on the court, we try not make it seem like it's a competition, because we're all fighting for the same spot," she said. "We know that and we fit together and it works out really well when we're on the floor."It might get a little bit more difficult for the three guards and the rest of the Lady Steers, though.Big Spring is on the road against Lubbock High at 6 p.m. today in Lubbock. Warren, who used to coach at Lubbock Coronado, said Lubbock High has had better seasons, but it's a 5A team on the road and starts a stretch of tougher opponents for the Lady Steers. Another tournament is on deck in Slaton after Friday's game and then it's at Abilene Wylie, an open date and at Brownwood to start District 5-3A for the Lady Steers.Big Spring boysFinally, the Big Spring Steers don't have to travel to San Angelo, Monahans or Abilene for a game. At least for one night they don'tThe Steers face Merkel at 7:30 p.m. today in Steer Gym. It is their first home game since the Nov. 19 matchup against Odessa Permian.Head coach Cliff Thompson said he is excited about tonight's game."It's been almost exactly a month. It'll be good to have some fans in the stands," he said. "The past month, the only people in our stands have been the freshman team and the junior varsity."

Best Kids Parties: Hello Kitty
Name: Birthday Girl, Age 3
Location: Atlanta, GA
For my baby girl's third birthday party, we chose a Hello Kitty theme!
The backdrop was made with gold duct tape on white fabric. The Hello Kitty image blown up to poster size using a local copy center, then attached using spray mount.
With a menu heavy on the sweets... we did make some mini deep dish pizzas & yummy flatbreads for all of our guests (the adults appreciated these!). Homemade Vanilla Cupcakes are taken up a notch by baking them in pink & white polka dot baking cups & topping them with fondant Hello Kitty Toppers made by Top Cupcake. We had a blast making homemade cotton candy.
Party hats were covered in a fun wrapping paper & then adorned with a Hello Kitty style bow.
My mother is always good for a grand party themed gift! This year she transformed a cardboard Lemonade Stand from Michaels into a Hello Kitty Sweet Shop. This was done with a lot of creativity, glitter & of course pink duct tape. I added the tissue garland & the name banner that was also created by A Blissful Nest.
Thanks, Kristin! For more photos and details about this party, check out Kristin's blog, The Hunted Interior.

The great Thi Nguyen recently did a fabulous write-up of LA Peruvian spots in the LA Times. Thi is an old time Chowhounder who was the editor of the Los Angeles edition of Chownews back in its heyday, and I won't try to redo his good work.
Everything he says about Puro Sabor, the traditional Peruvian spot in Van Nuys is true. On a recent visit, we loved most everything, including the various ceviches, the chicken fried rice (arroz chaufa) and the tender, stewed beef dish seco de carne. But the greatest dish of the evening was something that didn't appear in Thi's review, though Thi says it was in the original draft.
Picarones are pumpkin doughnuts served in syrup. As a doughnut fiend, it's hard for me to describe how excited I was when these heavenly rings appeared. Served fresh out of the frier, the doughnuts come piping hot and perfectly crisp. They have an eggy composition that makes them light and fluffy; imagine a twice-fried French cruller served hot and you may begin to understand the transcendent quality of these picarones. I didn't get too much pumpkin flavor from them. They are served in a palm sugar syrup infused with spices; I detected cloves and maybe some cinnamon. And be warned, you may find yourself not only spooning the syrup over the doughnuts, but spooning it directly into your mouth.
Doughnuts, of late, have migrated from diners and doughnut stands to the dessert menus of many high-end restaurants. I've had them at Grace, Craft, Mozza and Little Dom's. The picarones at Puro Sabor, however, were far and above the best restaurant doughnuts I've ever tasted. The doughnut dish, alone, is worth going back for.

Thi, I appreciate the compliment, but having read your work over the years and knowing what a wonderfully descriptive writer you are, I find that hard to believe.
By the way, I know you've been into Bourbon of late, and I'd love to discuss or taste some Bourbon with you (I'm always looking to share my collection). Drop me an email if you're interested.

Turning a Page: Newsweek Ends Print Run
Newsweekly's Move Online Leaves Time Magazine Without Longtime Print Rival
Newsweek magazine ended almost 80 years in print with its issue dated Dec. 31 as it transitions to an online-only format, a move that makes it the most widely-read magazine yet to give up on the print media.
On the cover of the magazine, which was released Monday, is a shot of what was its Manhattan office building, with a Twitter hashtag, #lastprintissue, across the front in red.
The magazine had said in October that it would go all digital, and is now part of the news and commentary site The Daily Beast. Tina Brown, who was editor of the magazine, is also the editor of the Daily Beast, which is controlled by IAC/Interactive Corp.
Newsweek's switch is a signpost of how traditional print news outlets are being battered by an exodus of readers and advertisers to the Web.
Since 2005, Newsweek's circulation has dropped by about half to 1.5 million and advertising pages plunged more than 80%, while the magazine's annual losses had lately reached roughly $40 million.
Subscriptions to the new all-digital publication, called Newsweek Global, cost $4.99 for a single copy—the same price as the magazine—or $24.99 for an annual subscription.
Newsweek will have the help of the free Daily Beast as a promotional platform. The Daily Beast's traffic has grown 36% in the past year to five million unique visitors per month, according to comScore, a market-research firm.
Under Ms. Brown, a former editor of the New Yorker and Vanity Fair, Newsweek became known for provocative covers, such as a famous one imagining what Princess Diana would look like at age 50. In an October interview, Ms. Brown insisted that, in the digital form, "the cover will play the same role it has as a wonderful marketplace of ideas."
Founded in 1933 by a former Time foreign editor, Thomas J.C. Martyn, Newsweek was ever-present on the coffee tables of many American homes for decades, keeping people abreast of everything from the Vietnam War to movie reviews.
The first issue of Newsweek was dated Feb. 17, 1933, and cost a dime. A subscription cost $4 a year, according to that cover.
In 1961, Newsweek was bought by Washington Post Co. But decades on, the Internet accelerated a downward spiral.
Two years ago Washington Post Co. sold the magazine for $1 to Sidney Harman, an audio-equipment tycoon who later merged the magazine with IAC's Daily Beast.
Mr. Harman died last year. In June Mr. Harman's family pulled its financial support from the venture, leaving IAC to continue funding it as the majority owner.
Newsweek's move online ends a longtime print rivalry with Time Magazine, the leader in the newsweekly space, with a circulation of 3.3 million, according to the Alliance for Audited Media, formerly known as the Audit Bureau of Circulations.
Experience of other online-only publications is mixed. US News & World Report, originally a newsweekly, went online-only in 2008, and is profitable with 180 staff members, according to editor Brian Kelly. Partly thanks to its popular college rankings, its website draws about 5.9 million unique visitors a month, according to comScore.
Online publications requiring a paid subscription have struggled. The Daily, News Corp . 's iPad-only publication, ceased publishing on Dec. 15, ending an unprofitable experiment in digital publishing.
News Corp. also owns Dow Jones, the publisher of The Wall Street Journal.

Police shot and wounded a reckless driver who hit an officer with his vehicle Sunday afternoon outside the Ventura County Fairgrounds as he fled from a traffic stop, authorities said.
The incident began about 3:45 p.m. when the driver of a red pick-up truck attempted to pass several road closure barricades near the Garden Street entrance to the fairgrounds, according to a statement from the Ventura Police Department.
Several traffic officers working outside of the fairgrounds property saw the vehicle and stopped the driver near the intersection of Figueroa Street and Harbor Boulevard, police said. One of the officers was speaking to the driver, when the suspect suddenly accelerated backwards, colliding with another vehicle behind him.
The suspect then quickly accelerated forward towards another officer, and hit that officer with his vehicle as he fled, police said.
Other officers at the scene fired at the suspect vehicle as it smashed into several parked police motorcycles and a shuttle bus, police said. The shuttle bus was not occupied by fair-goers at the time of the shooting.
The suspect driver was struck by the officer's gunfire and came to a stop, police said. He was later transported to Ventura County Medical Center for treatment of his injuries, where he was listed in critical condition.
He was arrested for attempted murder of a police officer, officials said.
The officer that was struck by the suspect was transported to the medical center for non-life threatening injuries and later released.

Dutchmen RV's Voltage Cracks Top 25 in U.S.
March 29, 2011 by RVBusiness · 1 Comment
In less than four months from its introduction, Voltage luxury toy haulers from Dutchmen Manufacturing Inc. have entered the top 25 retail sales for fifth-wheels in the United States, the company reported in a news release.
Voltage is ranked No. 24 according to the January 2011 Statistical Surveys Inc. (SSI) Market report.
Tom Walworth, SSI's general manager, commented, "This accomplishment is unprecedented in the history of luxury toy haulers. Retail sales are showing a significant increase in the $50,000 plus prince point. Voltage is performing very well in this segment."
Nate Goldenberg, general manager of Dutchmen RV's Denali, Voltage and Rubicon product lines, credits the success of the brand to the innovative product design and the quality of dealers Voltage has attracted to Dutchmen.
"When we developed Voltage, we knew that the product had to be simply better than the competition," he said. "There are a lot of "cookie cutter" toy haulers in the market today. Voltage had to offer unique product advantages and offer the most features and value in the toy hauler segment."
"Since Voltage was an entirely new product line to Dutchmen, we had a clean slate when it came to selecting dealers to market the brand. We identified the best "A-Dealers" in each of the major markets and targeted them to sell the product line. We showed these dealers the prototypes and included their feedback and suggestions into the design before Voltage was launched."
Voltage currently offers four 102-inch wide high profile fifth-wheel floorplans from 35 feet to 42 feet and retails for $54,000 to $68,000. Floorplans feature 7-foot, 6-inch tall super slides in the main living area, innovative side aisle bathrooms, and exclusive bedroom designs with either a huge wardrobe slide or a king bed slide with a front walk in closet. Voltage offers floorplans with garages from 10 feet to 14 feet feet and is available in five different exterior paint packages.
Don Clark, president of Dutchmen RV, said, "One of Mr. Goldenberg's goals, when coming to Dutchmen, was to cut his own path and create something meaningful for the industry. I'm pleased to say that Nate and his sales team have accomplished this with Voltage."
Goldenberg said, "We are very pleased with the enthusiastic response we have received from retail consumers on the product line. It's the hit of the shows. At many dealerships Voltage is retailing as soon as it is received on the lot. With more floorplans coming soon, we are looking forward to a successful spring and summer selling season and for Voltage to continue to climb up the retail rankings.
Dutchmen RV is a division of Thor industries Inc. Dutchmen RV produces several brands of towable recreational vehicles that are sold throughout the United States and Canada. Dutchmen RV brands include the Denali, Komfort, Infinity, Aspen Trail, Kodiak, Voltage, Rubicon, Aerolite, Coleman and Dutchmen brands.

A's outlast Red Sox to hit All-Star break on up note
Oakland, CA – Josh Donaldson hit a game-tying two-run homer and then the game-winning RBI single in the bottom of the 11th inning, lifting Oakland to a 3-2 victory over Boston in the finale of a three-game set.
Matt Thornton (0-4) walked pinch-hitter Chris Young to start the frame, and Eric Sogard sacrificed him to second. Coco Crisp's grounder failed to move him, then Derek Norris drew a pinch-hit base on balls ahead of Donaldson's solid hit to center to end the contest.
"I really believe that the guys in this clubhouse really believe that we have one of the best teams in baseball," Donaldson said. "It's just one of those things, where when we get an opportunity to play a good team like the Red Sox or the Pirates or the Cardinals, we're out there sending a message that we are a good team, that we're for real."
Ryan Cook (2-2) turned in two scoreless relief innings to pick up the win for the Athletics, who hit the All-Star break having won seven of their last 10 and hold a two-game edge over Texas in the AL West.
In his 400th career appearance, Bartolo Colon allowed eight hits and two runs with four strikeouts over 6 1/3 innings.
Dustin Pedroia and Brock Holt knocked in a run apiece for the Red Sox, who dropped the final two games in the series but still hold a 2 1/2-game edge in the AL East over Tampa Bay.
Brandon Workman's first major-league start was nearly flawless over the first six frames.
"Obviously, I had a good outing," Workman said. "I was locating my pitches pretty well for the most part and had a lot of success with it, so it's something I think I can continue to do and build off of for the next time."
He yielded just one walk and no hits, but Crisp was a half-step ahead of Pedroia's throw on a grounder to second to start the home seventh. Two batters later, Donaldson drilled a pitch deep to left center to tie the game, 2-2, and signal the end of the young right-hander's outing.
Yoenis Cespedes began the bottom of the 10th with a single and took second when Sox shortstop Jose Iglesias' throw ended up in the stands. However, after Josh Reddick struck out, he was caught stealing third for the second out and Nate Freiman grounded out to end the threat.
The Sox left the bases loaded in the 11th when Holt was caught looking at a third strike.
Boston broke through in the sixth, as Jacoby Ellsbury, Daniel Nava and Pedroia combined on three straight singles to produce a run.
It was 2-0 in the seventh, as Mike Carp led off with a double and scored two batters later as Holt dumped a single to left.
Game Notes
The A's have won eight of their last nine home games with the Red Sox, dating back to last July, and 36 of 60 home tilts since the start of the 2000 season ... Oakland reliever Grant Balfour was a late addition to the American League All-Star squad ...Prior to the contest, the Red Sox recalled left-hander Drake Britton from Triple-A Pawtucket and optioned outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. to the PawSox.

Today, virtually all industrial equipment (IE) manufacturers around the world are exploring how they can benefit from digital transformation of their businesses. In scoping out and pursuing the potential of digital, they're being spurred on by a rich blend of opportunities and risks.
On the opportunity side, IE companies are attracted and energized by the promise of being able to tap into new revenue streams and build closer and deeper customer engagement through the industrial internet of things (IoT) and other digital channels. And in terms of risks, they're eager to avoid the threat of digital disruption from traditional and non-traditional competitors both within and beyond their industry.
There's no doubt that the opportunities that digital technologies present to IE companies are substantial—and potentially transformational. IoT, for example, at root, offers them the game-changing ability to understand in real time how each of their individual products is being used by customers, together with insights into each product's current and future status. This information opens the way to the creation of new customer services and revenues that were never previously possible.
But the journey to digital enablement for IE companies is neither well-signposted nor easy. Over many decades—even centuries in some cases—they've built robust businesses based on deep understanding of their products. And while they're adept at exploiting product and service know-how to add value for their customers, they've historically done this using traditional product development processes and innovation cycles measured in years. With digital, these former assets can all too easily become liabilities.
By virtue of their background as engineering-based developers of complex equipment, it's relatively easy for IE manufacturers to generate data from their products, run analytics on that data, and conduct pilots and proofs of concept. But the challenge then is scaling these up and monetizing them through new business models.
To position themselves to overcome these hurdles, our experience shows IE companies should focus on three priorities:
Digital strategy – both for the "customer" and for the "enterprise." IE manufacturers must ask questions like: how will we use digital to create value for our clients and ourselves? What should we prioritize? How will we monetize our data? And how can we use digital to improve our operations?
Capability – Most IE companies have not previously needed or invested in digital skills in areas like web design, online customer experience and mobile app development. So they need to ask: What skills do we not have today that we'll need tomorrow? How can we identify the capability gaps that will be created? And how will we integrate software components from across our digital ecosystem, including start-ups?
Platforms and ecosystem – All IE companies need to navigate the complex world of IoT and digital channels, by putting in place the building-blocks they'll need in order to develop, offer and monetize new offerings and business models. Moving from a product to service orientation demands a new way of working. Specifically, it involves creating an ecosystem by being open to partnering and co-opetition, and prioritizing speed and time-to-market.
Accenture Digital has the proven ability to help clients navigate their way through all aspects of their digital journey, including online presence, ecommerce, client portals, digital marketing, analytics, mobility, and IoT including connected field worker and connected asset management.
Accenture's deep knowledge of digital in both B2B and B2C models means we can help our IE clients devise and accelerate their digital strategies in ways that maximize the opportunities and manage the related risks.

A blog by one of the volunteer reviewers for Geocaching.com. It's about geocaching and the review process -- what it takes to get your new caches listed on the world's most popular geocaching web site. ©Copyright 2012 by K.Braband. All rights reserved

Volunteer Reviewer Geocoins
I received email today from a geocacher who asked if I needed any help distributing my volunteer reviewer geocoins in Iowa. I replied that I'm planning to attend some events in Iowa this year and hoped to distribute them at those events. I'll also put a couple in the mail to him, since he asked. And to get some responses/questions/etc. going on this blog, I'll mail my IowaAdmin volunteer reviewer geocoins to each of the first three Iowa geocachers who post a comment on my blog. The comment needs to be a legitimate question about geocache reviewing in Iowa.

Hmmmm...A coin for the first three legit questions huh?
How about this: What is the most time consuming part of reviewing caches, and how can we help streamline that process.
Is there anything we could be mentioning at the Geocaching 101 type events that would help new folks avoid problems or delays?

I know some areas know their reviewer is busy on certain days/times, and that caches do not get reviewed during those periods.
Do you have any days/times when you are not available? Obviously this is open ended since the load varies week to week, but do you try to review caches every single day?

Thanks for the questions! (The first comments on my blog. Gee, now I am somebody in bloggerland.)
Windchill, the most time-consuming part of the process in terms of real hours is reviewing multi caches and mystery caches that have multiple waypoints. To streamline that process, you could make all your caches traditional. :) But I know that would make geocaching less fun for a lot of people, so I don't expect that. As I said in a previous post, I hope the new "add waypoints" feature of gc.com will help, but it looks like there are still bugs to work out.
What to tell new folks at events? That permission is required for many public properties, including all IaDNR-managed land. I hate to see new geocachers discouraged when they learn they may have to contact a park manager.
Welch, another good question. Yes the load does vary. Sunday evenings are usually the busiest to review new caches. I don't have set times that I'm not available during the week. I try to check the queue at least once each day. Most days I end up checking it twice. Exceptions may be when I'm traveling. If I'm going to be gone for an extended period of time, say several days without Internet access, I'll get other reviewers to cover for me, as I sometimes do for them. I use a laptop with WiFi, so more and more I'm usually able to log on at a hotspot somewhere.
Thanks for the questions, Windchill and Welch. Email me your home addresses and I'll send you each a coin. I still have one more coin to give away in this current promotion, so someone else post a question.

Just out of curiosity- How much time do you spend out of your day doing the reviewing process, assuming you have an application in queue?

Finding the perfect load
I was told and have read that to find the best load for your weapon you take your preferred powder and preferred bullet and then load several rounds starting at the low end working up in a certain increment. Then go to the range and shoot and you will get a cluster of shots and the closest cluster take the middle combo and that is best for your rifle I chose IMR 4895 powder and a 145 grain boat tail soft point bullet. Loaded from 45 grains to 55 grains in .5 grain increments. I went to the range with my 7 mm Rem Mag and shot at 300 yards. Well with my bench rest i found no cluster of groups. My total group was sub 5 inches for all 21 shots. I did have two consecutive shots go in the same hole(#4&5). Then two other times in same hole (#11&13) and (#8&12). Shots are numbered #1 = 45 grains of powder #2 = 45.5 grains each shot going up .5 grains. So I need help finding the right load. I am actually fairly pleased with a sub 5 inch group but dont undrestand why 10 grains of powder didnt make a huge difference in the shot. I dont have a chrono so I dont know any velocities and really dont care as long as i can kill a deer or elk at 500 yards. So what do i need to do? Use the #4&5 load? or try another powder? I really want to stay with the 145 grain bullet. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am going to try the same thing with some IMR 4350 powder because I have heard that is A good powder for the 7 mm Rem Mag. Should i do the same thing? Or try another method of finding the right load? Again any suggestions are appreciated.

Well hbobby your choice of powder is somewhat fast and what you need is a slower powder for the big seven.
Have you read up on the 7mm rem magnum? There's a bunch of stuff written up on loading for it.
I use the 140 grain Accubond, and my powder of choice for that bullet is IMR 4831, 3/4 inches at 100 yds 5 shot group.
Also you might work up your loads by testing at 100 yds (if your zeroed), because it's simple to gather data, and then test out to further ranges.
Good luck with the big seven dude!
Thanks for coming!

I have a 7mm Rem Mag that I use IMR4350 in and love it. I did the same thing, started on low and worked up to max. My load gets me between .500"-.600" every time out. Which is fine with me for my hunting purposes. You won't regret using IMR4350 or IMR7828

IMR4895's not normally used for 7 Rem Mag's with bullets heavier than 110 grains. IMR4350 or IMR4831 is much better for 150's. In any case, you need to record the accuracy of each load separatly so each load can be compared realistically to the others. But if all 21 went into 5 inches at 500 yards, that's pretty good. Shoot 5-shot groups with each load then compare them.
Others posting their group sizes without mention of the range they were shot at probably did so at 100 yards. Their load's accuracy at 300 will typically be 4 or maybe 5 times as large at 300 yards.

I'm with Bart B, 4895 normally is not used in a 7mm Rem mag, I was surprised to see the powder listed in the Nosler Handbook. Loading density for this powder is only 67% with a full charge under 150gr Nosler, again usually you should try to achive at least an 80% loading density for this round which would indicate nothing faster than IMR4350. My go to powder was IMR7828 and even slower powder with a loading density 82% with 63grs min charge, 87% with 67.5grs which is max. I have found the powder which most nearly fills the case (80% or higher) with the highest velocity listed usually produces the best accuracy. For my 7mm mag experience this powder was IMR7828, further this is the powder that Remington used in their 7mm Rem mag ammunition when Remington introduce this caliber. William

I agree slow your powder down. I have had good luck with H4831, IMR4831, and R-22

I agree with the others, a slower powder, such as 4350, 4831, etc.
Shoot at 100 yards. Get lots of targets. Shoot each different load at a clean fresh target for groups. I use targets printed off the computer, cheap paper and lots of them. I also keep all of these targets in a binder to compare later. Do your shooting at the range. Do your homework, research, loading, and measuring at home. That way you don't get stressed out about group size while you ar still shooting, just concentrate on shooting.

The reason I picked the 4895 was i had loaded some 4831 63 grains and 4895 48 grain loads just for practice loading and just to go out to the range and make some noise. Shot the 4831 and got a group of about 2-3" at 100 yards (ok but not what I want) then i put in the 4895 ang got a sub 1" group (4 holes that all touched more what I'm looking for). So I figured that would be a good powder to start with. I have read that it was a little fast but i couldnt argue with 4 touching holes. I am going to give the 4350 and 4831 a try with ladder loads as well. I just had he 4895 laying around from about 15 yers ago and figuerd what the heck I will make my thunderstick go boom.

Stick with powders equal or slower than IMR4350. My best loads have been with IMR4831. As far as 145 grain Speer, if you push them to 3000fps, they will make a real mess. Speer recommends Grand Slams for the 7mmRM. I can verify the mess with 3 deer that each lost a shoulder or ham blown to the ground from 60-165 yards with that bullet at 3130. I went to 154-160 and got normal results.

Regarding testing loads, if you shoot several few-shot groups with the same load and they're not all the same size, which one are you going to use as the accuracy that load produces? Remember, each group represents what that load will do for a few shots.
It's my opinion that if each group with the same load doesen't have the same size (or no more than a 10% spread in size center to center), you didn't shoot enough rounds to best judge the load's performance.

Let me get this right... you fired all shots at the same target? Ummm no.
You need to shoot 3 or 4 groups (3, 4 or 5 shots each) of each load at different targets. That means 10-20 rounds for each load. If you work up 10 loads at home you're gonna need 30-40 different targets.
BTW, for initial testin loading at 1gr increments is more than good enough. Most testing is done a 100 yards.

If you shoot 3 or 4 few-shot groups on their own target, a composite of all those groups will be bigger than the largest few-shot one.

A 13-year-old Ardmore Middle School student, who brought a knife to school, is facing an assault with a weapon charge.
According to Ardmore Police Department reports, Sgt. Ruben Garcia, AMS school resource officer, received information about 8:45 a.m. Wednesday of the possibility the student was armed. The student was detained pending the outcome of Garcia's on-the-scene investigation.
Friday, Sgt. Bobby Moore, APD Criminal Investigation Division supervisor, confirmed reports concerning the incident had been forwarded to the Office of Juvenile Affairs for review and a possible charge of assault with a weapon. Moore said a "locked blade" type knife was recovered from the student. In addition, the investigation revealed the suspect had threatened to use the weapon to harm another student and told other students about his intentions.
Moore said the motive behind the teenager's actions remained unclear.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 18, 2013) - PMI Gold Corporation ("PMI") (TSX:PMV)(FRANKFURT:PN3N)(ASX:PVM) and Keegan Resources Inc. ("Keegan") (TSX:KGN)(NYSE MKT:KGN) jointly announced today that they have terminated the arrangement agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") they entered into on December 5, 2012 in accordance with its terms. This decision comes as a result of the mutual determination of PMI and Keegan that it is unlikely that PMI's shareholders will approve the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement. The termination of the Arrangement Agreement is not on account of any differences arising between the respective boards about valuation issues or on account of any new facts having come to their attention.
As a result of the mutual decision to terminate the Arrangement Agreement, the special meeting of shareholders of PMI which was scheduled for February 20, 2013, has been cancelled. The special meeting of Keegan shareholders scheduled for February 19, 2013 will proceed but only to consider the approval of a name change of Keegan to "Asanko Gold Corp.", reflective of the region in Ghana where it operates. PMI and Keegan have agreed that no termination fee will be payable as a result of the mutual termination of the Arrangement Agreement and the parties have released each other from all obligations in respect of the Arrangement Agreement.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Information:
This PMI and Keegan joint press release contains "forward-looking information", as such term is defined in applicable Canadian securities legislation and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements concern PMI's and Keegan's future financial or operating performance, the Merger, and other statements that express management's expectations or estimates of future developments, circumstances or results. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "expects", "believes", "anticipates", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "plans" and variations of such words and phrases, or by statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "will", "could", "would" or "might", "be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". Such forward-looking information may include, without limitation, statements regarding the completion and expected benefits of the proposed Merger and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking information is based on a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by management based on the business and markets in which PMI and Keegan operate, are inherently subject to significant operational, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Assumptions upon which forward looking statements relating to the Arrangement have been made include that PMI and Keegan will be able to satisfy the conditions in the arrangement agreement dated December 5, 2012 between PMI and Keegan, that ongoing due diligence investigations of each party will not identify any materially adverse facts or circumstances, that the required approvals will be obtained from the shareholders of each of PMI and Keegan, that all required third party, and that regulatory and government approvals will be obtained. PMI and Keegan caution that forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause PMI's and Keegan's actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such information, including, but not limited to: gold price volatility; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates; between actual and estimated reserves and resources or between actual and estimated metallurgical recoveries; costs of production; capital expenditure requirements; the costs and timing of construction and development of new deposits and expansion of existing operations; the success of exploration and permitting activities; parts, equipment, labor or power shortages or other increases in costs; mining accidents, labour disputes or other adverse events; and changes in applicable laws or regulations.

Although PMI and Keegan have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there can be other factors that cause results, performance or achievements not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate or that management's expectations or estimates of future developments, circumstances or results will materialize. As a result of these risks and uncertainties, the proposed Merger could be modified, restricted or not completed, and the results or events predicted in these forward looking statements may differ materially from actual results or events. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The forward-looking information in this press release is made as of the date of this press release, and PMI and Keegan disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise such information, except as required by applicable law and neither Keegan not PMI assume any liability for disclosure relating to the other company herein.
Cautionary Note to US Investors Regarding Mineral Reporting Standards:
PMI and Keegan prepare their disclosure in accordance with the requirements of securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of US securities laws. Terms relating to mineral resources in this press release are defined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects under the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") permits mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. PMI and Keegan use certain terms, such as, "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources", "inferred mineral resources" and "probable mineral reserves", that the SEC does not recognize (these terms may be used in this press release and are included in the public filings of each of PMI and Keegan which have been filed with securities commissions or similar authorities in Canada).

designplan needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 21 designs submitted by 11 freelance designers.
A physical therapy practitioner who uses massage, exercise and energy work for healing needs a new logo for her new business identity. I'd love to see a human body shape that expresses health and vitality in a gender-neutral and non-sexual way.
Body of Life
Body of Life is the new company name for a physical therapypractitioner who has been in business for the last twelve years and is readyfor a change and a new look.
The focus of our work is the body. We do healing, bodyawareness, massage, and exercise. All of them designed to have us feel goodabout our bodies. So we want to have a logo that represents the body in ahealthy way without being sexual or suggestive. Also, because we work with bothmen and women, we thought the body should be more generic rather than gendered.We have a tag line: Balancing Inner and Outer Health. You can incorporate itinto the design if you like, but it's not necessary.
For colors we thought something that gives a peaceful feeling,maybe greens and blues, but we're open to ideas. We would like to use the logoon the web, in stationery, as a car decal and for print advertising, so itshould be scalable and work well in black and white.
We'd love to see what you come up with!
- Symbol and company name in the logo
- Line drawing or silhouette of a complete bodyfor the symbol (should have identifiable arms, legs, torso connected to form awhole).
- Body should be gender-neutral and non-sexual
- Feel of health and vitality
- Prefer greens and blues
- Tagline (optional)
- for use in print, web and as a car decal
- final file in vector format
- a symbol that is too impressionistic or abstract

Biologists have released remarkable photographs of a golden eagle attacking a deer in far eastern Russia after a remote digital camera designed to shoot wandering tigers accidentally captured the beasts' mortal struggle.
The images, which were published recently in the Journal of Raptor Research and by the Wildlife Conservation Society, are the first documented photographs of a golden eagle preying upon a sika deer. Up until now, it was a matter of debate whether or not the raptors preyed upon the medium-sized Asian deer.
"I've been assessing deer causes of death in Russia for 18 years—this is the first time I've seen anything like this," said wildlife biologist Linda Kerley of the London Zoological Society. Kerley authored a paper on the find with her colleague, Jonathan Slaght, a conservation biologist with the WCS.
The pair had been conducting research into Siberian, or Amur, tigers in the Lazovskii State Nature Reserve in Primorye, in the southern Russian Far East, and had used a collection of digital cameras to record the animals' movements. The camera's passive infrared sensors are triggered by heat and movement from the massive cats.
When Kerley went to retrieve the memory card from one of the cameras, which had been placed in an old old power line clearing, the biologist noticed a mutilated deer carcass in the snow.
"Something felt wrong about it," Kerley said in a prepared statement. "There were no large carnivore tracks in the snow, and it looked like the deer had been running and then just stopped and died."
When she returned to camp and reviewed the images, it was immediately clear what had happened.
Three images dated Dec. 1, 2011, revealed an adult golden eagle clinging to the back of a collapsing 6- to 7-month-old sika deer near a stand of birch and alder trees. The images were taken over a period of two seconds.
"I couldn't believe what I was seeing," Kerley said.
The biologists said they did not think the eagles routinely preyed on sika deer, and therefore weren't reducing the deer population.
However, golden eagles were known to attack a wide variety of prey, Slaght said.
"From things as small as rabbits -- their regular prey -- to coyote and deer, and even one record in 2004 of an eagle taking a brown bear cub," Slaght said.

Beginning Monday, readers will notice a change in the way they get their news from The Courier's website.
Beginning Monday, readers will notice a change in the way they get their news from The Courier's website.
To keep pace with a changing news industry, The Courier will join the rapidly growing number of newspapers in Louisiana and across the country that offer digital subscriptions.
Newspapers have experienced a steep movement of their readers from print to online, where news has traditionally been made free.
"The content that we produce is the core of our franchise. We cannot continue to charge some users (our print subscribers) and allow others (our online-only readers) to have free access to our most valued content," said The Courier Publisher Miles Forrest. "As a model for business, this is simply not sustainable."
As a result, The Courier has opted for a metered approach in which casual readers get five free stories every 30 days. The homepage, all section fronts on the newspaper's website, StormTracker, calendar listings, all advertising, contests and classified advertising will remain free at all times. Accessing these free pages will not be a part of the metered content and will not count toward a reader's five free stories each month.
Online-only readers who want more access will be asked to pay a small fee to continue reading. Home-delivery print subscribers have unlimited access to digital offerings at no additional cost.
In the event of an emergency, such as a hurricane, The Courier will offer free access to its news content to all readers.
"This is something we and other newspapers are doing to sustain our ability to provide the local news readers demand from us in the many ways they want it," said Executive Editor Keith Magill. "We continue to reach thousands of readers through our print newspaper. But the trend is clear both here and across the nation: Readers are increasingly using digital formats — things like cellphones, tablets and computers — to access our content. And they expect that content around the clock, as events happen, not just once a day when the newspaper hits their doorsteps."

If you attempt to print out a test page from the Dell A940 Solution Center, the test page example displayed on the Dell A940 Solution Center screen will appear differently from what is actually printed from the printer. This does not indicate a problem with the Dell A940 All-In-One printer.

On 6-7 April 2009, the second Forum of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations will be held in Istanbul, Turkey. In addition to high-level plenary debates, the event is intended to feature:
- An international platform for participants to develop joint initiatives and launch new programs.
- A range of project-specific working sessions, which will provide an interactive, inclusive convening space for policy-makers, international organizations and civil society groups to share lessons on best practices and develop joint work platforms.
- A unique 'Marketplace of Ideas' that will showcase some of the most innovative and successful grassroots projects with the purpose of transcending cultural divides and building peace.
The Alliance of Civilizations (AoC) was established in 2005, at the initiative of the Governments of Spain and Turkey, under the auspices of the United Nations. The AoC Secretariat, which is based in New York, works in partnership with States, international and regional organizations, civil society groups, foundations, and the private sector to mobilize concerted efforts to promote cross-cultural relations among diverse nations and communities, and in particular between "Muslim" and "Western" societies.
The Alliance works in four program areas to support such projects. These areas are: youth, media, education, and migration.
At a political level, mainly through role of our High Representative President Sampaio, former President of Portugal, the Alliance works to establish platforms for dialogue among political, religious, media and civil society personalities who are prepared to use their influence in advancing the Alliance of Civilizations' objectives.
The Alliance has developed memoranda of understanding with a number of partner organizations, including UNESCO, the Arab Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ALESCO) and the Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO).
The Alliance of Civilizations Group of Friends community is vital to the AoC's implementation process. The Group of Friends consists of representatives of States, UN agencies, and other international organizations and bodies that have demonstrated active interest in and support of the Alliance.
Surprisingly, there is no representative of the United States Government listed among the Group of Friends. Perhaps this is something that the Obama administration can rectify.The Alliance of Civilisations International Network of Foundations brings together foundations working to build trust and cooperation among religions, cultures and peoples. The Network includes U.S. foundationsL the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art, as well as many of the most important foreign foundations.

Green building market expanding
Reduced costs are a key reason for the expansion of green building market, which is expected to remain steady up to 2016.
According to a report by www.companiesandmarkets.com, the green building market is expanding thanks to reduced costs over the last several years. In particular, the cost reduction benefits for building automation and control systems are encouraging growth in the market. Two of the key reasons for this growth, according to the report, are safety and convenience. The growth is expected to be steady through 2016, which is how far the projections stretch out to. The ability to integrate green design into older systems is a key advantage and, coupled with the reduced costs thanks to advancements in R+D, is why the market will continue to grow.

The rapper Fish Grease Jenkins believes they do.
A youtube video of his with the chorus "I'm from East New York/Where the guns do the talking," has sparked protest from community leaders and police who believe the video needlessly promotes gun violence in the central Brooklyn neighborhood.
The video, titled "I'm from East New York," was shot in May of 2008 and first appeared on the Internet last summer. In it, Jenkins appears in front of various East New York housing developments where he raps, among other things, about violence and police aggression in his neighborhood. The song's controversial hook is accompanied by the sounds of gunshots.
"We're definitely opposed to what he's saying," said Tony Herbert, the founder of Urban Community Council (UCC), a Brooklyn-based community outreach organization.
Herbert said police officers from the 75th precinct recently brought the video to his organization's attention. Police officials were upset, said Herbert, because in the video Jenkins calls the precinct out by name and includes pictures of the precinct's police cars.
Officials from the 75th precinct did not return calls seeking comment for this story. The precinct is known for its high crime rate, though the area of central Brooklyn covered by the precinct has gotten safer in recent years. According to police statistics, there were 16 murders in the precinct in 2008, down from 41 a decade earlier.
For community advocates like Herbert, it still isn't safe enough. Gun violence is "an issue that we can't tolerate in our community," said Herbert, who founded UCC following the shooting deaths of two Brooklyn children in 2007. "We just got sick and tired of hearing about the violence in our communities so we took a stand."
Since its founding, the group, which is privately financed, has grown to include over 600 volunteer members, according to Herbert. UCC works primarily with low-income communities like East New York, aiding families and youth affected by street violence.
Jenkins' video, said Herbert, sends the wrong message to the youth whom he teaches about non-violent conflict resolution.
"All these kids are hearing is that in East New York the guns do the talking," said Herbert. "We don't need this message in our society."
In response to the video, Herbert invited Jenkins to participate in a December 30th event at the 75th precinct to denounce gun violence. Jenkins didn't show up.
In an interview, Jenkins denied that his video promotes gun violence, saying instead that it highlights the hardship of life in East New York.
"I'm not promoting anything that's not going on," said Jenkins. "You can look at it as a cry for help. I'm showing you what the grim reality is."
Jenkins, 25, who declined to give his real name, preferring to be identified by his rap alias Fish Grease, was born and raised in the Boulevard Housing project in East New York. Jenkins said he started rapping after returning to East New York from Clark Atlanta University, where he graduated with a double major in Business Administration and Fashion Design.
Jenkins said he declined to attend the anti-violence event planned by Herbert because it was staged at the police precinct, instead of at a community space where residents would be more likely to participate.
Herbert said he hoped his protest of Jenkins' video would not promote the as-yet unknown rap artist. Yet it seems to have done just that, which is fine with Jenkins.
The scandal over his video has focused attention on the violence, unemployment and other issues that plague his community, the aspiring rapper said.
"Now people are going to pay attention to us. Now you're going to have to do something about it," said Jenkins. "If there's no attention paid to us than people are just going to keep killing each other."

If you've ever - and we're sure you have - asked your partner if your bum looks big in an outfit, did you expect an honest answer?
Well, seventy per cent of women believe their men would reply truthfully when asked the dreaded question.
However, according to new research by Very.co.uk, the vast majority admit to saying "the right thing" simply to keep the peace.
As a result, every British woman has a staggering average of 104 items they've bought but never actually worn – totalling £2.3 billion worth of outfits left languishing in wardrobes that will never see the light of day.
We look to the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian and Beyonce who embrace their womanly assets, for inspiration on showing their curves off.

Managed in cooperation with theSt. Johns River Water Management District
Mathew O'MalleySt. Johns River Water Management District
The Lake Monroe Wildlife Management Area (WMA) spans 3,098 acres in Volusia County. The WMA is located along the southeastern shore of 9,406-acre Lake Monroe, five miles northeast of the City of Sanford. The WMA lies within the Lake Monroe Conservation Area, which is managed by the SJRWMD. Lake Monroe is a shallow, wide area of the north-flowing St. Johns River. Management of the natural communities within this area helps to improve water quality, increase flood protection, preserve and restore diverse plant and animal communities and provide resource-based recreational opportunities that are in high demand in the region.
The WMA property was acquired by the state in 1987 and opened to public hunting for the first time during the 2009-2010 hunting season. Prior to 1987, the WMA property was a part of the Osteen Ranch and was managed for cattle production. The previous owners cleared portions of the native vegetation and planted pasture grasses suitable for grazing. The property is predominantly floodplain marsh along the river, with hydric hammock, basin swamp and upland mixed forests of oaks, palms, cedar and pine at higher elevations. The SJRWMD manages the property using a combination of groundcover restoration, reforestation and controlled burns. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission administers hunting related activities. Wildlife includes deer, turkey, numerous species of resident and migratory songbirds and turtles and wading birds along the river. Bald eagles are known to nest on the property. An endangered plant - Rugel's false paw paw - occurs here.
The WMA is open year-round. Along Reed Ellis Road, north of the intersection with CR 415, there are three access points to the WMA. Visitors will find a loop trail leading off of the second parking area. The trail is suitable for hiking, bicycling, horseback riding and wildlife viewing. Camping is not allowed and vehicles are restricted to the parking areas. Hunting equipment and dogs may be taken onto the area after 8 a.m. the day before the opening of a season and should be off of the area by 6 p.m. one day after the end of the season. The September through April hunting season includes opportunities for archery, muzzleloading gun, general gun, small game and spring turkey. Quota permits are not required. Check the list below for more detailed information about hunting seasons. There are no boat launch facilities in the WMA.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Brooks Raley's big league debut quickly turned into a humbling lesson.
Carlos Quentin hit a three-run homer, Ross Ohlendorf pitched effectively into the seventh inning and the San Diego Padres ruined Raley's first career start Tuesday night with a 7-4 victory over the floundering Chicago Cubs.
"You'd have to say I was definitely nervous," Raley said. "It was a good experience, a good one to get out of the way. I learned a lot out there. It didn't go as I drew it up. I'm going to get better."
Promoted from Triple-A Iowa, Raley (0-1) lasted four innings while allowing seven runs and eight hits. The left-hander had four strikeouts and three walks as a replacement for injured starter Matt Garza.
Raley gave up a string of singles, but was constantly in trouble while laboring through his 89-pitch outing.
Chase Headley and Everth Cabrera each drove in two runs for San Diego, which has won eight of 10 at home. Quentin, the club's one true power hitter, made it 7-0 with his 12th homer.
"I missed a few pitches here and there," Raley said. "Quentin made me pay on that one. It was icing on the cake."
Chicago lost its seventh consecutive game and has been outscored 38-16 during the slide.
Quentin was out until May 28 due to offseason knee surgery. But his big bat has put a charge in a previously powerless San Diego offense that is averaging close to five runs a game over the last month.
"He's dangerous every time he steps to the plate," Padres manager Bud Black said. "He's a proven offensive player. When he's in there, he's an offensive weapon."
Ohlendorf (4-2) gave up one unearned run and three hits in six-plus innings. He was pulled after Bryan LaHair reached on a two-base error by right fielder Chris Denorfia leading off the seventh.
Huston Street, the fifth Padres reliever, pitched a perfect ninth for his 20th save in as many chances.
"It's been a lot of fun when you have a team that you know is going to score," Ohlendorf said. "You don't have to worry about being so fine. It helps."
San Diego held the Cubs to five hits for the second straight night, including a 2-0 victory Monday.
The Padres teed off on Raley, the Cubs' sixth-round draft pick in 2009.
Although there were only two baserunners in the first two innings, the rookie threw 37 pitches. Then in the third, Ohlendorf got things going with a leadoff single.
After a walk to Denorfia and Logan Forsythe's infield single loaded the bases, Headley lined a two-run single to center. After another walk loaded the bases again, Cabrera's two-out single drove in two more runs.
"He settled down and did OK," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said about Raley. "Then, the bloop hit by the pitcher and the (infield single), and it just snowballed into a tough outing."
Raley ran into more trouble in the fourth when he allowed a pair of singles with two outs. He then hung an off-speed pitch that Quentin hit for a three-run homer to left.
Quentin is 9 for 18 with four homers and nine RBIs against the Cubs this season.
"He's kind of killed us, no doubt," Sveum said. "He's strong. We can't get the ball inside on him."
The Cubs scored in the fifth on consecutive two-out doubles by Luis Valbuena and Darwin Barney.
Chicago rallied in the seventh after LaHair reached on Denorfia's error and scored on Steve Clevenger's single off Brad Boxberger. Barney was hit by a pitch with one out before rookie Josh Vitters hit a two-run double for his first major league hit.
Cubs rookie Brett Jackson, who struck out four times Monday night, whiffed three more times Tuesday. In his first 11 major league at-bats, Jackson has fanned eight times.
NOTES: Raley became the 15th rookie to play for the Cubs this season and the eighth to make his major league debut. ... Raley is the 46th player used this season by Chicago, second-most in the majors to the Padres (49). .. Padres 1B Yonder Alonso did not start because of a sore hamstring. ... Cubs LF Alfonso Soriano was scratched from the lineup due to swelling in his right hand. Soriano was spiked by Forsythe when he slid into second base in the sixth inning Monday night. ... With Garza going on the DL, Chicago has just six players who were with the club to open the 2011 season. ... Cubs RHP Jeff Samardzija (7-9, 4.37 ERA) will oppose Padres LHP Clayton Richard (8-11, 4.01) on Wednesday in the series finale.

RV & Motorhome Blinds and Shades
- Consider privacy, light control and operability
- Cellular shades insulate in changing climates
- Hold down brackets key for spaces on the move
- Go cordless to avoid tangles and small space clutter
- Best of both worlds privacy with top down/bottom up
When deciding on RV blinds consider your light and privacy preferences. Blinds have tiltable slats that allow precise light control during the day, but can allow for some light seepage when closed. Shades give more privacy and are available in blackout fabrics, however, to allow full sunlight they will need to be raised. The top down bottom up feature on shades allows for light control while still protecting privacy. Consider adding hold down brackets to your blinds they ensure that while your RV is moving, your blinds won't be.

Grey cape
Added Oct 4, 2012

Paris, France
Wool cape I made last winter. The hood is lined with jersey, and the "holes for the arm" (any idea about the real technical word?) are trimmed with the same jersey.
It's not as warm as a real coat (too many places for fresh air to come inside !) so I wear it over a little grey jacket that I have, and it's perfect for rainy day.

yup, got the numbers but still got in a knot! I made two hoods (one as a lining) and both turned out different! I think I am a complete muppet but one of them is right, I just have to unpick the other! (again!) Ha! =)

Thanks! I was worried about the hood too, but then I realised the Burda marks were very useful. Look carefully at the pattern and indications. The numbers match. If I remember correctly, there's a central band of fabric, and two similar bands at each side. I hope my words are clear! Good luck!

"A bill recently introduced in Congress would greatly expand the exemption to the Fair Labor Standards Act for IT employees, ending overtime benefits for many more types of workers, including network, database and security specialists." The Democrat senator of North-Carolina has introduced an even worse version of the bill, which specifically exempts database and network specialists and security professionals from overtime benefits. Say, isn't some company building a huge data centre in North-Carolina? I'm sure it's all a coincidence.

The professors presented a talk on the topic of copying ethics codes on Nov. 6 at a conference titled "Ethical Dimensions in Business: Reflections from the Business Academic Community." The two-day conference was sponsored by the Institute for Ethical Business Worldwide and was held at Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business.
When the professors created a database of ethics codes comparing 2.5 billion sentences, they found that more than half of publicly traded companies had sentence correlations greater than 75 percent. The database is located at http://www.nd.edu/~ethicsdb.
In part, copying is understandable: Public firms must disclose whether they have adopted a code of ethics for management or explain why not. Lawyers drafting the legalistic portion tend to see strict replication of language as a "best practice." But the professors also saw much borrowing in the values-based portion, and argue that this should be held to a higher standard of originality.
Loughran sees the ethics-code requirement as a good intention watered down to a waste of time. "I would like them to start all over. Companies that care would do it right and actually provide something, and others would just drop out of the process and not simply plagiarize others' ethics reports."
"I think companies should think about what they are writing," Loughran said. "Some do take it seriously and should be applauded."
The Ethical Dimensions conference, now in its sixth year, increases the scholarly attention to the breadth of important ethical issues and methodologies by bringing together multiple disciplines in the academic community, said Ann E. Tenbrunsel, management professor and co-director of Institute for Ethical Business Worldwide.
What's special about this conference is the input from many disciplines, she added. "We are able to see different issues from different perspectives."
The conference includes presentations on ethics topics by Mendoza faculty members and other experts, as well as a dissertation competition where Ph.D. candidates present research that furthers the understanding of the ethical issues facing the business community. In this year's dissertation competition, four students gave talks on topics ranging from the role of personal character in organizations, to ethics in economic decision making, to the relationship between regulatory policy and corporate environmentalism. The winner was Adam Yore of Drexel University, whose research on personal misdeeds of managers found that an indiscretion committed by a top executive (sexual misadventure, substance abuse, violence, or dishonesty) erodes the entire firm's value and performance.
Other topics presented during the conference in addition to the study of ethics codes include whether some mutual funds stretch the truth in their fund name. Jennifer Marietta-Westberg, financial economist, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, said there is evidence that select mutual funds hold stocks outside their fund objectives, such as a large-cap stock in a fund with "small cap" in the name. The problem is, she said, "if an investor used the name of a fund as a basis to diversify his portfolio, he may not have proper diversification."
Also, accountancy professor Tom Frecka and adjunct accountancy instructor Margot Cleveland presented a talk on efforts to reduce corrupt business practices. Bribery is considered a fact of life in conducting business in most countries, Frecka said, with about one person in 10 having paid a bribe last year, according to Transparency International's Global Corruption Barometer survey. But the practice distorts market competition, lowers business efficiency, and increases market uncertainty. Bribery is considered morally repugnant in most societies, Frecka added, and the trend is toward greater prosecution.
The United States took a stand in 1977 with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits companies and individuals from making bribes to foreign entities. This year, many members of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development agreed to pass local statues to prohibit engaging in foreign corruption. "This is a huge step forward," Cleveland said.
