The fourth and likely final day of Oscar Pistorius' bail hearing opened on Friday, with the magistrate then to rule if the double-amputee athlete can be freed before trial or if he has to remain in custody over the shooting death of his girlfriend.
The prosecution is expected to complete its arguments opposing bail. The defense rested on Thursday, and Chief Magistrate Desmond Nair can issue a ruling on bail at any time after arguments finish.
Pistorius is charged with one count of premediated murder over the Feb. 14 killing of Reeva Steenkamp. He says the shooting was accidental because he thought she was a dangerous intruder inside his home.
Steenkamp's Valentine's Day killing has seized the world's attention and there was intense focus Friday on if Pistorius would be released, and if so, with what conditions.
Pistorius' hands trembled as he said "good morning, your worship" as the court session began in Pretoria Magistrate's Court, in South Africa's capital.
Pistorius' longtime coach Ampie Louw said before proceedings began that he is considering putting his runner back in training if he is granted bail to allow him to "get his mind kind of clear."
Louw said he realizes that the Olympic athlete might not be emotionally ready to give any thought to running.
"The change is that he is heartbroken, that is all," Louw said in the courtroom, surrounded by reporters and television cameras. "For me it is tough to see that. Not to be able to reach out and sit next to him and say 'sorry, man, it was a terrible accident.' But I cannot do it, I must just sit here in court and that's all.
"The sooner he can start working the better." said Louw, who was the person who convinced the double amputee to take up track as a teenager a decade ago.
Nair will decide if Pistorius is freed with conditions or if he is held until trial. Pistorius faces the sternest bail conditions in South Africa because of the seriousness of the charge, meaning his defense lawyers have to prove there is an "exceptional" reason for him to be freed.
He has been held at a police station in Pretoria since last week, but suspects who are denied bail are typically held in a prison.
Defense lawyer Barry Roux argued on Thursday that the evidence backs up Pistorius' statement that he shot through a toilet door at his home because he mistook Steenkamp for an intruder, killing her by accident.
"I think there will be a level of shock in this country if he is not released (on bail)," Roux said in court.
Opposing bail, prosecutor Gerrie Nel argued Pistorius was too willing to shoot. The prosecution says Pistorius planned to kill his 29-year-old girlfriend, a model and budding reality TV star, after an argument in the early hours of Valentine's Day.
"The reason you fire four shots is to kill," Nel said.
Louw said he might put Pistorius - who overcame the amputation of his lower legs as a baby to compete at last year's London Olympics - back on a morning and afternoon training routine if he is freed, believing it might help him to be able to run track again.
"You must give him space," the coach said.

Competition for rotation spot doesn't faze LeBlanc
By Paul Hagen / MLB.com
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- If there was a Cy Young Award for Spring Training, former Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen said a year ago, it would have gone to Wade LeBlanc. The left-hander had a 1.31 Grapefruit League ERA, allowing just 10 hits and striking out 19 in 20 2/3 innings.
LeBlanc was at it again on Monday, starting against the Braves and throwing two perfect innings in the Marlins' 7-6 loss at Champion Stadium. He was happy with his outing, but kept it in perspective.
"Where'd that get me last year? It got me three months in [Triple-A] New Orleans, that's what it got me. We'll see how it works this year," LeBlanc said with a laugh.
When LeBlanc was eventually called up, he bounced back and forth between the rotation and the bullpen and went 2-5 with a 3.67 ERA.
This spring he's competing for the fifth spot in the rotation, and that's fine with him.
"I think I'm always going to have to earn what I get, and that's how I want it," he said. "I feel like the minute somebody gives something to me, I'm not going to appreciate it once I get it. So if I were to perform this spring and end up in that fifth slot, I'd appreciate it, because I'd know that I earned it. That's the big thing for me. I don't want anything given to me."
This time around he has a couple of things going for him -- the first four starters who are penciled in are right-handed, and he's out of options. Still, he knows he doesn't have the luxury of just going out and working on things. He has to show results.
"If he pitches like he did today over the course of Spring Training, that will put a lot of pressure on us to keep him on the team," said manager Mike Redmond. "We've been talking about guys being aggressive and pounding the strike zone. That's exactly what we were looking for. That was pretty much [the Braves'] 'A' lineup, so it was a good test for him."
Said LeBlanc: "I think the last two or three years, I've figured out how to approach every game like it's a regular-season situation while still improving on things and building toward [Opening Day]. That's the goal, and I think that's a product of me having to compete every year for the last six Spring Trainings. So I think you reach a point where you know what you need to do to get ready for the season while at the same time competing and trying to earn a spot."
And as long as he has a spot in the Major Leagues, he doesn't care what his role is.
"If anybody tells you they like bouncing around, they're lying to you," he said, "but I think the personality that I have allows me to be able to do whatever they need me to do moreso than some guys. I'm not the kind of guy who needs a full day to focus on getting into game mode like some guys do. Everybody's different."
Skipworth hoping to answer opportunity's knock
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- While the Marlins continue to look for catching help after losing Jeff Mathis for at least six weeks with a fractured right collarbone, they also have the opportunity to take a good look at their No. 1 Draft choice of 2008, Kyle Skipworth.
The 22-year-old made his first Grapefruit League start in Monday's 7-6 loss to the Braves at Champion Stadium.
Skipworth went hitless in two at-bats, but manager Mike Redmond liked what he saw.
"I thought Skippy did a nice job behind the plate," Redmond said. "He looked great."
Redmond had planned to split catching duties between Mathis and Rob Brantly, and now Skipworth is in the mix.
"It's a tremendous opportunity for him," said Redmond. "I've only gotten to see him play a couple of times, but he's a strong, physical catcher. He's got a good arm. And from what I've seen, he's got some pop in his bat as well. Saying all that, we'll see how he does in the games.
"I'm sure there's a comfort level that could take a little while, but hey, that's the situation we're in. It's an opportunity for him, and hopefully he'll take advantage of it."
Redmond reunited with his former skippers
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- When rookie manager Mike Redmond looked across the field at Champion Stadium during Monday's 7-6 loss to the Braves, he was staring at a couple of the reasons he even got this opportunity: Atlanta's manager, Fredi Gonzalez, and bench coach, Carlos Tosca.
Tosca was Redmond's first professional manager, at Class A Kane County in 1993 and again at Double-A Portland in 1995. Gonzalez was his manager at Class A Advanced Brevard in 1994 and at Triple-A Charlotte in 1998. In fact, it was Gonzalez who told Redmond when he was called up to the Majors for the first time, in 1998. And he played for both during his time with the Marlins.
"One of the coolest things is, these guys have known me since I was 21 years old," Redmond said. "They've known me since I came out of Gonzaga. That's pretty neat. I definitely owe a lot to those guys as far as my development as a player.
"It is a little bit weird [to be on the other side of the field], but at the same time, it's neat. It's great. I'm not here today without those guys and the help they gave me as coaches in my development process as a player. ... Those guys broke the game down for me. Carlos was like a father to me. He was hard on me when I was a young catcher but really taught me to be accountable and responsible as a catcher. He was really tough on me. Old school. But you know what? It made me a better player and made me learn the game. I'm definitely not here without their help."
Worth noting
• Right fielder Giancarlo Stanton threw out Atlanta's Jordan Schafer trying to score from second on a single in the fifth inning of Monday's game.
• Non-roster invitee Jose Fernandez threw batting practice on Monday, and he could make his Grapefruit League debut in a "B" game on Thursday. Fernandez has been held back because of a tight hamstring, not because he hit Stanton in the head with a pitch during batting practice.
Pitching coach Chuck Hernandez said that he didn't need to talk to the right-hander about that incident, saying, "He's fine. It's part of the game. It may not be the last time it ever happens. It's part of what we do."
• First baseman Casey Kotchman took batting practice on Monday, one day after taking part in a simulated game. Kotchman hasn't played in a week after getting four stitches in his left ring finger.
"We'll just see. It's going to kind of be up to him. As soon as he's ready to go, we're going to put him out there," manager Mike Redmond said.
• Outfielder Juan Pierre and third baseman Placido Polanco will start on Tuesday against the Mets at Roger Dean Stadium, but Redmond plans to bring the two veterans along slowly.
"Those guys are probably the least of my worries," he said. "Those guys are going to get their at-bats. They're veteran guys and I want to take care of them, especially Polanco after having some back problems over the last couple years. I want to make sure he eases into it. We need those guys for the long haul. We don't have a lot of depth, and we definitely need them to be healthy."

Woman Wins $40M, Not $40K Sparking Wild Celebrations (VIDEO, PHOTO)
A woman has won $40M, not $40K as she originally thought, sparking scenes of wild celebration, according to reports.
Maria Carreiro, from Toronto, is apparently over the moon after realizing she was now a millionaire, after mistakenly thinking she had won $40,000.
Carreiro spoke of her shock on Monday at winning the lotto Max jackpot draw last Friday.
The 51 year old woman was already delighted, thinking that she had struck it lucky to win $40,000.
However, that amount is dwarfed by her real prize money amount, and it appears as though she simply had not seen the extra three zero digits in her original excitement at winning.
The $40,000 prize she originally thought she had won ended up being just 0.1 percent of her real prize - a massive $40 million.
Carriero has described her excitement at going to tell her family that she had won $40,000: "I went home and I told my daughter, 'Oh, I won $40,000! I won $40,000!'"
Her daughter was of course delighted and just as excited. However, she went to check the numbers for herself just to check that her mom had not made a mistake, and it was then that the even bigger win was revealed.
After the daughter pointed out that the jackpot was in fact for $40 million, not $40,000, Carreiro apparently ran back down the street "like a crazy woman" to check her ticket numbers again for herself.
"It said $40 million and then I go: 'Oh my God.' And I ran back up the street, home and then I go: 'I need a glass of water.'
"So I drank a glass of water and said: 'Let me go sit down and relax.' And that was it," she excitedly described.
Later she broke the news to her other family members, and at first her husband refused to believe it, and thought that he was being wound up.
However, she has now been officially identified as the winner by the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, and her husband has already reported that he will now quit his job: "He told his boss...'I am going to work with you Monday, after that I quit!'"
Carreiro meanwhile has said, "I am going to go for dinner with my whole family at The Mandarin, all you can eat! That's what I'm going to do and then I am going to go home, take a shower and go to sleep."
Here is a video of Carreiro winning the jackpot:

Morgan Barrett will not return as Russellville's director of Public Works.
The Russellville City Council deadlocked 4-4 during its vote Thursday night on a motion to reinstate Barrett. Aldermen needed a two-thirds majority vote in favor of reinstating Barrett and overturn Mayor Tyrone Williamson's decision to fire Barrett, and street department employee Brad Teeter, on July 2.
The council went into executive session 15 minutes after beginning Thursday night's regular meeting and after Alderman Phil Carruth made the motion, seconded by Cliff Kirchner. Barrett, attending the meeting with his attorney, Timm Murdoch, was called into the executive session at 6:28 p.m. and returned to the audience area a couple of minutes before the council returned at 7.
Carruth made the motion to reinstate Barrett to his position of three weeks ago, and requested a roll-call vote. Voting in favor of reinstating Barrett were Carruth, Cliff Kirchner, Randal Crouch and Scott Sanders. Voting against Barrett's reinstatement were Aldermen Robert Wiley, Faye Abernathy, Freddie Harris and Bill Eaton.
After the vote, Carruth promptly got up and left the council meeting through the back entrance.
Barrett's attorney, Timm Murdoch, said after Thursday night's meeting the council's vote was disappointing, and the governing body's was a loss for the city of Russellville.
"Unfortunately, the city chose from the very beginning not to interview Morgan, not to take a statement from him," Murdoch said. "That's the first time in 24 years in either any criminal, civil or internal investigation I've seen a conscious choice to do that. There's several bits of documentation, instances of direct contradiction in the city's own statements, where they contradict themselves. If the council doesn't spend enough time to find those things, you're left with a false impression.
"I think what happened here is, you start out with an assumption of guilt, then you look for facts to support that. I think that was the mindset that happened here. From what I understand, in the executive session, the focus was mostly on whether the firing was proper, unfortunately, some other issues got in there, too, which admittedly, there was no proof of those issues, but still that seemed to be a factor.
"Morgan will probably do better in the private sector than he does in the public sector. As we've already seen from the agenda, they're trying to replace him with two or three people. The city's going to find out in about a year just what they gave up tonight."
Murdoch said he didn't know what was said when Barrett was called into Thursday night's executive session. Barrett met with the council for 30 minutes of the 45-minute executive session.
"I gave him my file, anticipating, due to the fact he hasn't been allowed to give a statement, that he would give a statement and he might be asked specific questions about some memorandums that had been prepared by the city and the timeline he sent out by e-mail to the aldermen last week. I wanted him to have that information, so that it wouldn't be cold," the attorney said.
"There was one issue about the timing of when Morgan knew about the investigation. Morgan learned from an alderman that an allegation was made over a weekend, but didn't found out about an investigation until Monday, when he talked with [Police Chief] Tom McMillen. The city's documents seem to indicate that Morgan knew about the investigation at 8:30, but the documentation shows he didn't learn of it until 10:30. It seems like not a big deal right now, but it is a huge deal. In any event, when Morgan heard of the allegation, he talked to an employee and then went to talk to city hall. City Hall did not tell him it had started an investigation, and later on, he was accused of interfering with the investigation. It's difficult to interfere with something you don't know that's going on."
Murdoch was asked if statewide media attention of Barrett's firing would hamper his ability to find other employment in the private sector.
"It's disturbing, because these were personnel matters," the attorney said. "Comments were made while he was on administrative leave and still an employee of the city. His 13-year-old son was watching Channel 4 news, I think, on July 5 and he sees his dad's picture up there. He's accused of theft. Kristin [Clark Murdoch, Timm's wife] checked it out and talked with Channel 4, and they identified their two sources as The Associated Press wire and Russellville City Hall.
"To my knowledge, he's never been accused of theft, even in the comments that were made that shouldn't have been made. That's something we're looking into, and I'm not sure where that goes. It's unfortunate that we're where we are."
Murdoch said his client appreciated the "tremendous support" he received since his termination earlier this month.
In a previous story written by Brooke Chambers, The Courier obtained a police report from Russellville City Hall through an Arkansas Freedom of Information Act request that stated Teeter was accused of stealing an undetermined amount of gasoline and various auto parts from the Pope County Complex, where all city and county employees garner fuel and materials for city and county use.
Williamson first learned of the alleged thefts during a June 14 phone call with an unnamed source. The police department was also contacted, and an internal investigation began, Human Resources Director Christi Williams said.
Williams said Barrett was not being accused of any criminal activity, and explained it was his "retaliation" to the investigation that prompted his termination.

Hey Experts,
I think I may have made a mistake. I recently bought a WD My Book Essentials 2TB with the intention of using it as a NAS. My wireless router has a USB 3.0 plug, and I meant to hook it up directly to the router.
In the meantime I have been using the drive with my desktop for a few weeks. It seems to work fine and the connect (USB 3) is very fast. But now that I am trying to plug it into the router, there appears to be no response. I assumed (wrongly?) that *any* external drive could work as a NAS device if plugged into the router. Now that I've been looking a little harder, it seems that there are specific WD external drives for this purpose.
Was I mistaken? Am I SOL regarding this drive? I don't think I can take it back after using for this long, and I don't need it for just backup duty. What I want is a basic NAS so that all the network can access the media on the drive (music, video, etc...)
Any thoughts?

Hedo Turkoglu and Vince Carter not living up to the hype:
Turkoglu has been decent offensively but nothing better, with a league-average Player Efficiency Rating (15.06), a high assist rate and middling shooting numbers (42.8 percent after slumping to 41.3 percent last season). Meanwhile, his aversion to defense has become far more glaring without Dwight Howard around to erase his mistakes, playing a role in Toronto's plummet to last in defensive efficiency.
Moreover, the Raptors are on the hook for four more years after this one at $11 million a pop. For a soon-to-be 31-year-old who basically is an average starter, that seems a highly questionable expenditure.
Yet, in Orlando, many observers seem to yearn for the halcyon days of last spring when Turkoglu directed the offense. Carter has been more productive than Turkoglu in terms of sheer numbers (22.9 points per 40 minutes, 16.98 PER), but he's getting his numbers in a different way. Carter is shooting only 39.3 percent from the floor after Tuesday's 2-for-15 stink bomb in a 97-90 loss to Indiana, and despite all the weapons around him, his assist rate threatens to set a new career low.
In part, this probably is a sample-size issue. Carter is shooting only 31.5 percent on 3-pointers, but it's unlikely that rate will stay that low all season, given that he has shot 37.3 percent for his career and has more clean catch-and-shoot looks in Orlando than he ever saw in New Jersey or Toronto.
However, his inability to create as many open looks for teammates as Turkoglu did requires him to be a more effective scorer. So far, it's tough for him to declare victory on that front -- he's scoring more often than his predecessor but less efficiently.

Continental PremiumContact 5
TyresSummer tyres
Tyre dimensions225/55 R17 101W XL
Weight index101
Speed indexW (max 270 km/h)
Item No.R-239515
- Description
- EU Tyre Label:
Puts a stop to risks. In all conditions
The ContiPremiumContact™ 5 - The perfect all-rounder which combines comfort and safety at the highest stage.
The ContiPremiumContact™ 5 is the new allround premium tire for vehicles in the compact, mid-size and full-size category. The allrounder boasts extremely short braking distances on dry and wet roads, low rolling resistance, safe driving properties and comfortable handling characteristics. To realize all of this, Continental's development engineers imbued the ContiPremiumContact™ 5 with a host of improvements. The optimized 3D edges are what make for shorter braking distances than in the case of the predecessor model. Adapted from the ContiSportContact™ 5, the macro-blocks guarantee safe handling and better transmission of cornering forces. A new carcass – adapted this time from the ContiEcoContact™ 5 – enhances comfort and reduces the ContiPremiumContact™ 5's rolling resistance.
For mid-sized and executive class vehicles. The perfect all-round tyre, matching performance with safety. Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. Perfect grip, optimal handling and short braking distances in every driving situation. Trusted by leading car manufacturers, including the models eg. Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf VII.
- Short braking distances on dry and wet surfaces
- Perfect grip and optimal handling in every driving situation
- Comfortable driving and improved rolling resistance
Perfect grip and optimal handling in every driving situation. Computer-optimised macro blocks maximise the contact area of the tyre when strong lateral forces are present and when braking or changing lanes at high speed. In addition, they provide considerably improved tread stability – for perfect handling and outstanding grip, even in extreme driving situations.
Short braking distances on dry and wet surfaces. Newly developed 3D edges prevent the tread blocks from curling and deforming while braking, providing even pressure distribution. Additionally, block edges penetrate the water film on the road in wet conditions, similar to a windscreen wiper. This results in even shorter stopping distances on dry and wet surfaces in particular.
Comfortable driving and improved rolling resistance. The combination of a flexibly designed tyre shoulder and reinforced bead area ensures optimum flexibility with increased stability of the side wall. This results in noticeably more comfortable driving with perfect handling and improved rolling resistance.
Since 1st November, 2012 all tyres made after 1st July, 2012 must show the European Tyre Label.
The European Union has developed this new provision to promote economic and ecological efficiency and ensure road safety.
Disadvantages The Tyre Label can provide an overview and give the customer more transparency, but it only covers three criteria. For an extensive evaluation of a tyre, however, far more performance characteristics are relevant. Especially in the search for suitable winter tyres the test results from different test institutions such as the ADAC are much more stringent.
We'd like to point out that it is the manufacturer that labels the tyre and provides us with this information. If you do not find the label values, either the manufacturer did not inform us of the label, or the product was manufactured before July, 2012. Before that date, tyres had not yet been required to carry a label, so in some cases it is possible to purchase a tyre without a Tyre Label.
The tyres are classified in terms of three performance characteristics:
• Fuel Efficiency (letters A to G)
• Wet Grip (letters A to G)
• External Noise
Take action
Finally, it is the driver that determines the fuel consumption. In order to reduce this over the long-term, by being careful during acceleration drivers can become more fuel-efficient and environmentally conscious.
Regularly checking tyre pressure helps to improve rolling resistance, reduces energy loss, and supports optimum adhesion in wet conditions. To reduce the risk of accidents and ensure your and the safety of other road users, always keep a reasonable distance.
More information: http://ec.europa.eu/energy/efficiency/tyres/labelling_en.htm
Choose from our large online selection or ask us for advice. Our experts are happy to help you choose the appropriate tyres from our extensive range of products.
The classification in terms of fuel efficiency is divided into seven classes, from the A-class (the highest) to G-class (the
lowest). A tyre in the A-class consumes 0.1 litres less at 100km than a tyre in the B-class. An essential component for fuel
efficiency is the rolling resistance or rolling friction.
Rolling Resistance
Rolling resistance is the force that opposes motion. It is formed, for example, when a wheel is rolling. Rolling resistance depends not only on the geometry but also on the properties of the material.
Average Average value is between C-E. Class D is not used.
It shows how efficient the vehicle can brake on wet roads. Wet grip is an important feature especially with summer tyres.
Class A has the highest safety and the shortest braking distances. Class F has low security and the longest braking distance.
The wet grip classes are based on test driving on wet roads with a speed of approximately 80 km/h. The difference between the braking distance of the tyres is 3-5 feet per grade. E.g., the difference in braking distance between Class A and Class F are up to 18 metres.
Average The average value of the tyres is between class B-E. Class D and G is not used.
The symbol indicates the external rolling noise in decibels and as a 3 class sound wave symbol to clarify whether the tire can
keep the recommended level. External rolling noise does not correspond to tyre noise inside the compartment.
A continuous sound level above 80 decibel can cause health problems.
Three sound waves symbolize the worst results. These are the tyres that exceed the maximum limit of approval. A symbol of 2 sound waves have noise level that corresponds with the approved sound level. Tyres that are marked with 1 sound wave are over three decibel quieter than the approval.

No they are very different... Lin is a Harvard grad ... Marbury probably isn't smart enough to graduate high school if it wasn't for basketball...
Lin is a smart player... Steph not much...
Steph was much more atheltic but couldn't make his teammates beyyer even when he had KG in his prime...
Lin just beat the Lakers with the best player on his team being Tyson Chandler that Oman Landry fields...
LIN " Coach Dantoni is an absolute offensive genious "

Whats up! My first post and I think I caught Lin fever. I've been a faithful since the Bernard King days, rode all the highs and lows of every year. But this kid takes me back of the days of Starks and Mace. Exciting players nobody knew about, that energized their team.
I read this post. And couldn't stop laughing.
But Marbury was an elite point guard, and young, by the time he got his career manhandled by Isiah and Larry Brown.
Brown did his best to destroy David Lee's career, too, let's not forget.
Steph is a wild man no doubt, but how many NBA players are these perfect players until they get into the perfect situation. How many mature in the public's eye into those "team players" everyone always talks about, when they finally get under a legit franchise and coach and team that works to their strengths and builds up their flaws.
I have no doubt that if Kevin Garnett came to NY during the age Marbury did, Garnett would be labeled with the "cancer", "basket case", "loser" tag lines by the time he left.
I see Lin as having superior pure PG mentality and mind, to what he lacks in Marbury's sheer athleticism. But it's not a bad comparison; better than Westbrook, imo, which ppl are starting to compare his game, too.
I think all the stars were aligned for this to happen...
Dantonio quoted " this is once in a lifetime "
Dantonio looks like we feel....its almost like you cannot contain the excitement...its that wirey feeling like the old days :smokin:
Lin's agility is insane tho...he has great control of changing speeds...excellent timing...tends to out smart his guy with his body movement.
iSay, you know how Wade penetrates to the basket? But you can't stop it? Thats how it reminds of Lin.
I see Lin having a Kevin Johnson type career.
Btw, am I wrong for boosting Lin's rating up to 79 on 2k12?
Type of player NYK fans can feel truly proud of.
His grassroots story and style of play -- especially coming from the PG role -- will help balance the pressure and lack of fun the team seemed to be mired in prior, as a whole. Takes so much pressure off Melo/Amare, on and off the court I bet.
I might have to buy league pass for truncated season if it does't look like Dolan is going to do right by NY Knick fans.

One of Special Olympics Arkansas' (SOAR) most popular events is coming to the Arkansas River Valley. Russellville will host the first annual Dash and Splash polar plunge and 5k race at Lake Dardanelle State Park on Feb. 11, 2012.
"We've gotten a lot of interest from local business and volunteers and we want them to join in the fun," SOAR area director Darla Jones said.
The Polar Plunge events have been conducted for years across the state, but 2012's event will be the first for Russellville and a chance for the community to support Special Olympics athletes.
"Polar Plunge is a law enforcement-sponsored event for the state of Arkansas' Special Olympics athletes," Jones said. "It helps provide awareness and monetary support for local athletes, for the various programs — and it just allows our peers and community to show support for their local athletes."
During the event, participants — many dressed in fun costumes for the occasion — take a dip in a frigid lake to raise awareness and funds for Special Olympics.
The 5k race will set Russellville's event apart from some others in the state, allowing participants to choose to participate in the race, the plunge or both.
"We're excited, we're just pumped," Jones said. "This is a time to just let it go, and it's all for fun."
Early registration for the event has begun. The minimum donation required to plunge is $50, which also provides an official Polar Plunge T-shirt. Awards will be presented to the individual and team with the most money raised as well as the individual and team with the best costumes.
"The more money you raise, the more that goes back into the program," Jones said. "... This year, here at Russellville, we are going to do a traveling trophy for the business with the most money raised — for bragging rights."
Jones said she is hoping to encourage some local celebrities to participate in the event, and said city and county law enforcement officials are expected to take the plunge.
For more information about the plunge or to register, call Jones at 264-4831 or visit www.specialolympicsarkansas.com. Early registration for the 5k can be complete at www.arkansasrunner.com or forms can be picked up at local PDQ or Darrell's convenience stores.

1. What was your initial thought about the fact that Charlie told Bella Goat Rock wasn't a good place for camping? Did you wonder what else Edward might be doing up there? No I figured he was hunting. Because I knew the book was about a girl falling in love with a vampire .
2. How did you feel about Lauren and her open dislike of Bella? B*%#@ I thought Bella was awesome for being about to step away and ignore her.
3. What was your first impression of Jacob Black? Did you like him? Did you get the sense that he was interested in Bella as more than a friend? Yes I likes Jacob and yes I thought he was very eager to impress her, an OLDER girl.
4. Why do you suppose Jacob didn't believe the legends of his people as readily as Bella did? He had never met the Cullens and he did not witness Edward stopping a van with his bare hands.
5. Given the fact that the stories about the "cold ones" were true, did you fully expect to see werewolves in the future books? Hmm I didn't give it much thought.

Politics vs. Doing the Right Thing
By Donald M. Petersen Jr., BS, HCD(hc), FICC(h), Publisher
The game of politics is all about negotiating the support needed to win – or at least positioning oneself to look good when you lose. Politics is an occasionally civilized game of cloak-and-dagger in which the goal of winning is often elevated above the interests of the individual constituents.
As discussed last issue in this space and on the front page,1-2 the licensure war in Wisconsin has been going on for the past 10 years. It has involved legal battles, sizable political donations and various legislative initiatives.1-6 The war is now apparently coming to an end, with the Wisconsin Chiropractic Association (WCA) agreeing to support legislation that would remove the requirement for a separate practical examination in order to gain a chiropractic license in Wisconsin.7
Like all wars, there are innocent civilians casualties. In this case, the "chiropractic casualties" are the graduates who took and failed the Wisconsin licensure exam that will soon no longer be required.
These young people, most of whom grew up in Wisconsin, had dreams of returning to their home state and practicing near their home town. Their losses include the cost of the exam (more than $1,400 per attempt), the money they didn't earn as a licensed DC, the emotional stress of not being able to support themselves and the stigma of being told they were not good enough to practice chiropractic in Wisconsin.
If they had applied for their Wisconsin license a year or so ago, they wouldn't have had to take the exam. If they had waited and applied a few months from now, they also wouldn't have had to take it. Sadly, they just got caught in the crossfire.
Now that the Wisconsin exam politics are (hopefully) over, what is the "right thing" to do for the DCs who have been put through this unfortunate ordeal? In my book, assuming they've passed the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners' Part III and IV exams with sufficient scores, they should all be given their Wisconsin licenses without further delay. Their paperwork should be expedited, with all parties working together to process these applicants as quickly as possible.
Those 30 or so DCs who just took the April 2013 state exam should also be given their money back. Their test scores don't matter. The same applies to anyone who took the exam last year, but didn't pass it the first time. Why should they be forced to pay for something they didn't have to take?
The above will probably cost some political currency. It may even require Wisconsin board members to give back their $1,000 per-person, per-exam proctor income.
Giving the exam fees back is a small price to pay given the damage done to these DCs. Moreover, it will help the state of Wisconsin avert a lawsuit that has been brewing for the past year. But the primary reason for giving the exam fees back is that it is without a doubt the right thing to do.
Call me sentimental, but I still believe that deep down inside, people want to do the right thing. As Martin Luther King, Jr. said: "That old law about 'an eye for an eye' leaves everybody blind. The time is always right to do the right thing." Here's hoping the Wisconsin board members will see it in their hearts to do the right thing for these DCs.

Scientists Seek Second Genesis
by Brian Thomas, M.S. *
The invention of a synthetic life form is a dream shared by many scientists, and they are beginning to see it as a possibility that is achievable within a decade. New Scientist magazine stated that "engineering a second genesis would…broaden our view of life" by bringing an alternate version of what evolution supposedly accomplished "3.5 billion years ago" when it made the first living cell. A "second genesis" could also presumably lead to the invention of novel molecules that could solve "practical problems."1 But would it provide proof of an evolutionary origin for life?
The researchers' goal is to construct "an entirely new form of life unlike any that exists today." But their quest has instead served to clearly demonstrate the specified complexity of life. Each new technical breakthrough in the laboratory shows that the biological processes necessary for basic life required skill and genius to construct. These studies are methodically revealing the utter inadequacy of the raw laws of chemistry and physics to accomplish the technical feats required to produce and maintain viability.
For instance, Steen Rasmussen of the Los Alamos National Laboratory successfully "persuaded" a length of DNA to code for fatty acid production.2 He and his team are currently stymied in their attempts to figure out how to get the DNA length to grow and divide at the same rate that fatty acids build up in their synthetic life-mimicking system. Gerald Joyce of the Scripps Research Institute "made" two RNA-like molecules, "each able to construct a copy of the other by stitching together two half-molecules supplied by the researchers."2 As New Scientist reported earlier this year, however, Joyce's team has reached a dead end on making a molecule that can "gain new functions on the fly, without laboratory tinkering. Joyce says he has no idea how to clear this hurdle."3
These examples illustrate the principle of irreducible complexity, that certain whole systems must be formed intact if they are to have any functionality. Trying to develop them piecemeal does not work. Nor has there been a successful demonstration of unaided nature solving the various technical challenges that these scientists are trying to overcome by manipulating, making, and supplying the right parts in the right environments in the right amounts and at the right times.
And even if scientists somehow produce a complex chemical concoction that is specified enough to perform some of the tasks required by real living cells, they will only have succeeded in proving that life-by-nature alone was not possible—it took an intelligent agent to produce.
Although the physical machinery of a self-replicating, metabolizing, artificial cell is conceivably reproducible—albeit by massive human exertion—the non-physical aspects found in much of animal life is not. The Creator made sure that creatures whose "life of the flesh is in the blood"4 would possess minds, wills, and emotions. These three qualities, at least, will perennially resist laboratory-based efforts at duplication.

As camp nears, Coonelly chats with fans
Pirates president discusses moves, rotation, Draft and more
By / MLB.com
Coonelly: Hello, everyone and thank you for joining me this month before we get ready to head to Florida. Let's get started.
clipper4255: Mr. Coonelly, it was great to see you at PirateFest on Friday. I have to give you credit for standing in there and listening to the fans. You and your staff keep up the good work.
Coonelly: It was a terrific weekend at PirateFest, which followed a great week on the Winter Caravan. Our players love meeting with our fans and are motivated by their passion for the club. Personally speaking, I always love to talk Pirates baseball with Pirates fans, and this past weekend gave me a great opportunity to do that over roughly 12 hours.
21thebest: Frank, what is your scouting information telling you right now about Bryce Harper?
Coonelly: There has certainly been a lot of hype surrounding Bryce Harper, and I am sure that there will be much more prior to the June Draft. We are scouting Bryce Harper, as he just began his season in junior college. While Harper is an interesting Draft prospect, he is clearly nowhere nearly as developed as Stephen Strasburg was this time last year.
jraylives: I have been a Bucco fan for 36 years, and I'm very upset that all I can purchase for Opening Day was standing room only today.
Coonelly: Tickets to our Opening Day game sold extremely quickly. There are tickets being held for fans who purchase season-ticket packages, including 10- and 20-game packages. Our season-ticket packages provide outstanding value and give you access to Opening Day tickets. If such a package does not work for you, seats other than standing room only may come available as we get closer to Opening Day. I appreciate your interest in seeing the Bucs at PNC Park in 2010.
bucsin09: Hi, Frank! Is it safe to assume we are done with free-agent signings and trades before Spring Training?
Coonelly: With the [Octavio] Dotel, [Brendan] Donnelly, [Ryan] Church, [D.J.] Carrasco and [Javier] Lopez signings and several Minor League free-agent signings, it is likely that we will head into Spring Training with the current group. We are, however, keeping tabs on certain free agents who might be a fit if their financial demands soften.
a7a7a: Every Spring Training there's new energy and optimism surrounding the Pirates, but why should the fans think this year REALLY will be a winning season?
Coonelly: We certainly felt excitement and optimism during Winter Caravan and at PirateFest this weekend. Our coaches, players and fans are all looking forward to the 2010 season.
Excitement regarding this team's prospects in 2010 is warranted, in my view, because we now have a core of talented young players who are beginning to believe in themselves and their teammates. To a man, these young players want to be a part of a team that returns the Pittsburgh Pirates to championship baseball. With [general manager] Neal [Huntington] strengthening the bullpen and adding veteran presence like Ryan Church, the young players see the organization giving them the tools they need to be successful.
Perhaps John Russell said it best at PirateFest when he said he was "jacked up" for the season. Our players and our fans feel the same way.
jjd316: Frank, you and Neal are doing an awesome job with rebuilding from within. It's something us fans haven't seen for a LONG time. What was your reaction when you saw Rick Ankiel signing as cheap as he did?
Coonelly: I appreciate your support. I wouldn't characterize the $3.25 million for which Ankiel signed with Kansas City as "cheap." For us, we were unwilling to guarantee Rick a starting position. Instead, we are looking forward to competition in both right field and at first base. In light of our unwillingness to guarantee a job, Ryan Church was a much better fit for us.
a7a7a: Why is Ross Ohlendorf the pitcher you seem to be building the rotation around? You have Paul Maholm with more experience, and Zach Duke was an All-Star. Wouldn't one of those guys be a better one to build around?
Coonelly: I am not sure why you believe that we are attempting to build our rotation around Ross Ohlendorf. It is certainly true that we are excited about the progress that Ross made last year, and particularly the way he finished the season. Zach Duke and Paul Maholm are the most experienced arms in our rotation and just as critical to our success, as is Ross.
We are also extremely excited to see Charlie Morton take a further step forward in his development and look forward to a strong competition between Kevin Hart and Daniel McCutchen for the fifth spot in the rotation. Accordingly, I would characterize our rotation as deep and not entirely dependent on any one starter. We need all five starters to give us quality innings and a chance to win every night.
gostate1: Mr. Coonelly, what are your plans for Pedro Alvarez this season?
Coonelly: Pedro Alvarez has been working extremely hard on conditioning and nutrition this offseason. We expect Pedro to come into Spring Training in a few weeks prepared to prove to us that he belongs on the Major League roster on Opening Day.
The reality is that Pedro spent half of last season at High-A and half at Double-A and still has areas of development that he needs to complete. We look forward to seeing the progress that Pedro has made when Spring Training begins and believe that he has every opportunity to play in Pittsburgh at some point in 2010.
In short, we are extremely excited about Pedro's development both offensively and defensively and look forward to having Pedro become a key contributor to the Pirates' success in 2010 and beyond.
Coonelly: One more question for today...
pirates983: Has the rebuilding process stopped, and are the Pirates now concerned about now instead of the future?
Coonelly: That is a great question on which to finish up. We can never stop aggressively acquiring young talent. Our talent pipeline always needs replenishment so that we can remain competitive when we lose a player off the Major League roster.
Having said that, the massive overhaul of the roster that has taken place over the last two years is over. The core of this team's present and future is here now at Pittsburgh and in our Minor League system. The players in Pittsburgh and at the higher levels of the Minor League system look forward to this year for a number of reasons, but one reason, certainly, is that they see an opportunity to finish the season with much the same team that began it.
While I would expect that there will be players who move up to the Major League roster during the season and perhaps other players brought in to supplement, we do not anticipate an exodus of players off the roster at this year's Trade Deadline. I think that you can see by the acquisition of Aki Iwamura and the free-agent signings that significantly upgraded our bullpen that we believe we can win in 2010.
Even more encouraging for Pirates fans, is that the players believe in each other and believe that they can be the team that returns the Pirates to winning baseball.
Coonelly: Thanks again, everyone, for joining me today. I will talk to you again next month from beautiful Bradenton.

One run often can make the difference.
And despite Bayfield High Schools best efforts, one run really did the Wolverines in Thursday.
Alamosa and the BHS boys basketball team were tied at halftime, but a quick 8-0 run by the Mean Moose set the tone for the second half in a 54-39 victory Thursday in Alamosa.
We played pretty well in the first half. We were tied at the half 23-23, BHS head coach Bill Hesford said. They went on an 8-0 run out of the half, and we changed defenses and slowed them down, but that was the difference in the game.
Bayfield (2-17, 0-8 Intermountain League) got its top scoring performance from Preston Hardy, who had 12 points and six rebounds. Geoff Pope had 11 points, and Tyler Kerr and Dillon Hoselton each had six for the Wolverines.
In the first half, our offense was running really smooth, Hesford said. Kids were sharing the ball, getting good scoring opportunities. We had a bunch of guys make shots from the outside.
We were changing defenses a lot. I felt like that was keeping Alamosa off balance.
But the Mean Moose were able to figure out the Wolverines man-to-man defense early in the second half, and by the time Bayfield switched back to zone, the run was complete.
BHS will play an IML Tournament pigtail game, either Tuesday at Monte Vista or at Centauri.

Several area teams vie for regional spots
District 7A-1
At Tallahassee Lincoln
Schedule: Tuesday — No. 1 Forest vs. No. 4 Gainesville Buchholz (at Buchholz), 7 p.m.; No. 2 Tallahassee Chiles vs. No. 3 Tallahassee Lincoln, 7 p.m.; Friday — Championship game at 7 p.m.
Notes: The No. 1 seed Wildcats will travel to Buchholz for their opening round match because of an agreement between the district schools a couple of years back. Since Buchholz and Forest are in close proximity of each other, they will play the district semifinal at Buchholz rather than travelling to Tallahassee. Buchholz is the site because Forest hosted the tournament last year. The Wildcats come into the tournament at 6-0. However, all of their district games have been close encounters with the exception of their meeting with Lincoln back on Jan. 8, when the Wildcats won on their home court by 57-40. Forest won its two games against Buchholz this year by a combined margin of seven points. The Wildcats are attempting to make it to the regional playoffs for the second consecutive season after reaching the regional finals last year. The 'Cats lost a close one in that game to Oviedo, 55-51. Meanwhile, Buchholz (1-6) is looking to get back to the tournament for the first time since 2009. Its lone district win came when it hosted Lincoln on Jan. 15. Chiles (3-3) made the regional playoffs last year, while Lincoln (2-4) hasn't made it since 2009.
District 6A-5
At Groveland South Lake
Schedule: Today — No. 4 Lake Weir vs. No. 5 South Lake, 7 p.m.; Tuesday — No. 2 Vanguard vs. No. 3 Gainesville, 6 p.m.; No. 1 Leesburg vs. Lake Weir/South Lake, 7:30 p.m.; Friday — Semifinal winners will play at South Lake in the championship game at 7 p.m.
Notes: Leesburg comes into the tournament as the No. 1 seed after an 8-0 record in regular-season district play. Out of the eight district games the Yellow Jackets played, only one time did they win by anything less than double-digits. That win came on the road at Vanguard by a final score of 74-67. The Jackets are hoping to do one better than what they did last year when they were the 6A state runner-ups. They lost in the state championship game to Miami Norland, 64-36, just a year after winning it all in 2010-2011. Vanguard is the No. 2 seed and faces a tough Gainesville team in its opening-round matchup. The teams had an identical district record of 5-3 and split their two meetings, each winning at home. The Knights are hoping to return to regionals for the first time since 2004, while GHS made it last year and won the 5A state title as recently as 2009. Lake Weir (2-6) should take care of South Lake (0-8) in its opening round matchup as the Hurricanes beat South Lake both times this season by an average of 18 points per contest.
District 6A-6
At Brooksville Central
Schedule: Today — No. 4 Central vs. No. 5 Spring Hill Springstead, 7 p.m.; Wednesday — No. 2 Inverness Citrus vs. No. 3 Lecanto, 6 p.m.; No. 1 West Port vs. Central/Springstead, 7:30 p.m.; Friday — Championship game at 7 p.m.
Notes: The Wolf Pack enter district tournament play as the No. 1 seed, but their first round match up could present them with some trouble. If Springstead can knock off Central — the two teams split their regular season games — then the Pack would face a team they've beaten twice this season. However, if the seeding plays out and West Port plays Central, expect a competitive game. Even tougher for the Wolf Pack is the fact that the Bears are the host school in a gym West Port has already lost in this season. WPHS has plenty of confidence, though, and is more than capable of making the playoffs for the second consecutive year. Central is hoping to get back to the playoffs for the first time since 2004; Springstead last made the playoffs back in 2009; Citrus has not made it since 2008. Lecanto, meanwhile, has reached regionals in five out of the last seven years, including last year.
District 5A-6
At Palatka
Schedule: Tuesday — No. 2 Gainesville Eastside vs. No. 3 North Marion, 6 p.m.; No. 1 Palatka vs. No. 4 Belleview, 7:30 p.m.; Friday — Championship game at 7 p.m.
Notes: Palatka enters the 5A-6 tournament with a 6-0 record against district competition in the regular season. The Panthers are the clear favorites to win this district, having defeated their district competitors by an average of 28 points this season. However, Palatka has not made the playoffs since 2005. Eastside (4-2) made the playoffs last year and is no stranger to deep runs in the playoffs either — the Rams won the state championship back in 2006. North Marion (2-4) also made the playoffs last year and will look to do so in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2005 and 2006. Belleview finished district play with a record of 0-6, but will attempt to pull of an upset and get back into the tournament for the first time since 2007.
District 5A-7
At Eustis
Schedule: Tuesday — No. 4 Tavares vs. No. 5 Dunnellon, 6 p.m.; No. 3 Brooksville Hernando vs. No. 6 Crystal River, 7:30 p.m.; Wednesday — No. 1 Nature Coast vs. Tavares/Dunnellon, 6 p.m.; No. 2 Eustis vs. Hernando/Crystal River, 7:30 p.m.; Friday — Championship game at 7 p.m
Notes: Nature Coast finished its regular season with a 10-0 record against district opponents. The Sharks are trying to make one step further than last year when they lost in the state semifinals to Terry Parker (Jacksonville), 74-49. They're a good bet to make it back to the playoffs at the very least. Eustis made it back to regionals last year for the first time since 2008 under the guidance of its head coach Mike Bowe, a former Trinity Catholic girls basketball coach and Belleview boys basketball coach. Bowe led Eustis to an 8-2 record in district play this season. After the top two seeds, the field gets crowded with teams that haven't made the playoffs in quite some time. Hernando (5-5) last made it to regionals in 2004, while its opponent Crystal River (2-8) hasn't been there since 1994. Tavares (3-7), which last made regionals in 2000, will face off against a Dunnellon team that is looking for its first appearance since 2003.
District 4A-6
At Bushnell South Sumter
Schedule: Tuesday — No. 4 Bushnell South Sumter vs. No. 5 Weeki Wachee, 7 p.m.; Friday: No. 2 Mount Dora vs. No. 3 Trinity Catholic, 5 p.m.; No. 1 Umatilla vs. South Sumter/Weeki Wachee, 7 p.m.; Saturday: Championship game at 6 p.m.
Notes: Umatilla and Mount Dora each finished regular season district play with 7-1 records, with Umatilla claiming the No. 1 seed on a tiebreaker. The two teams split their regular season games, each winning at home. Umatilla is vying for its first trip to the playoffs since 2004, while Mount Dora made it last season. Trinity Catholic (3-5) may have five losses, but don't be fooled. The Celtics have been tough-luck losers in all five losses this season having lost the five games by an average of 6.8 points. If the Celtics can stay hot and play, they'll have a good shot of reaching the playoffs for the second straight year. Rounding out the District 4A-6 field is South Sumter, which hasn't made the playoffs since 2003, and Weeki Wachee, which is seeking its first playoff appearance.
District 2A-4
At Lecanto Seven Rivers
Schedule: Today — No. 4 Meadowbrook vs. No. 5 Gainesville Cornerstone Academy, 7 p.m.; Tuesday — No. 2 St. John vs. No. 3 Seven Rivers, 5 p.m.; No. 1 Leesburg First Academy vs. Meadowbook/Cornerstone, 7 p.m.; Friday — Championship game at 7 p.m.
Notes: First Academy of Leesburg earned the No. 1 seed after going 3-1 against district competition. St. John also finished with a 3-1 record but lost to First Academy, giving First Academy the top seed. The Eagles made the playoffs last year and are hoping to return. The Saints have not made regionals since 2006 and are hoping this is the year they return there. Seven Rivers (2-2) and Meadowbrook (1-3) each last made regionals in 2009, with that being the only time Meadowbrook has ever done so in school history. Cornerstone Academy (1-3) will also try to make it to the playoffs for the first time in school history.

Recently changed the oil and put in about a quarter quart too much. Can I leave it or should I take some oil out? If I should take some out what is the easiest way?
Thanks as always for your advice.

Often wrong.....never in doubt.
Happens...you are not the first to ask. Some folks remove the filter and drain some there, may take a few times with filter method. Others drain out and refill.
If you have run the bike, check the drain on rear of airbox,shifter side as it may collect there as well.
1/4 quart is not a catastrophic overfill...is it past the sight glass?

It's not the breaths you take, but the moments that take your breath away-D.Dillon/G. Strait
So you changed the filter, and actually poured in four complete quarts. And then, poured in another 1/4 quart? Why not just stop at four since the oil capacity is just about four quarts anyway.
I wouldn't worry about it too much. But if it makes you feel better drain off a bit of oil. Loosen the drain plug till it starts to dribble oil out (don't take the plug out), and let it drain down to the center of the sight glass.
Get trained! The best "performance" upgrade you can get is YOU. Visit msf-usa.org for training info.
Funny, that happened to me the other day, for some reason I thought I needed 4.75 quarts instead of 3.75. Just drained some from the plug and re-filled until correct. The crush ring is still okay - no leaks. Same bike as yours
As asked above, over the sight glass? 1/4th qt is not a big deal. I'd say even if it is currently over the top of the glass take it for a ride or two and see if it settles. If you didn't pour more than 4 total qts in, you're doing ok.
With the new oil not being dirty to darken the sight glass I was unsure that I had put enough new oil in so I am now over the sight glass. I will drain from the filter to lessen the oil.
Thanks for the advice.

I've put in too much on a couple of vehicles in the last 40+ years -- and always drain the extra.

Instead of draining from the filter, it'll be a lot easier and less messy just to loosen the drain plug to allow it to seep down while watching the sight glass.

Yes, too much oil in the crankcase WILL cause high case pressure and could cause oil to blow by the seals. From the center of the sight glass to the top is about a pint of oil.
I doubt an extra pint would be enough to cause excessive crankcase pressure.

I've got an '03 1100S and, according the manual, it says to fill to the top of the red line in the sight glass which is about 1/8" away from completely covering the glass. I've run it this way for 40k km (25k miles) in hot weather and cold and all seems well.
Should I be dropping the level?

I did the same thing on this gorgeous 57 degree day here on Long Island, sunny skies, organizing the garage kind of day...
Got a '04 R1150RT from a local guy in August.
He told me repeatedly, that the 1150 RT engine 'Hides Oil really well!
Three times, before we signed papers, he repeated to me the above.
So, upon adding my third quart, I realized that the new oil went right up to the top 'max' mark on the sight glass, and then thought... 'Oh sh*t', too much oil'.
I drained the oil down about 3/4 quart through the bottom drain plug, and then
let the glass settle.
I added some oil about 1 cup at a time. Stopped, started the bike up, let it settle, and added only another cup, and visibly saw signs of the oil on the 'minimum' mark of the sight glass, and then, stopped there.
Has anyone else heard this theory about the RT 'Hiding Oil Really Well' and forwarned about not adding 'too much oil', even though the owners' manual and other service manuals say 'fill to max level'?
Oh no... I think I started yet a third thread off of this RT oil question.

Not too bad, Edward looks better...the old one his face looks scared, yeah not him ;)ReplyDelete
LoL @ Lorabell XD
idk - other than the first Twilight Edward, these seem to be consistently off - it looks like they used the same "Guidoward" head from the NM Edward - lol! and the "old" jacob looks like maybe he's a little "special."ReplyDelete
@Alycya - "cross between Michael Jackson and Carrot Top" - lmao!! perfect description... i just saw an old and new carrot top pic today - side by side - and sweet jeebus he's had some botched up work! yikes...
Agreed, Vicorias looks like the spawn of MJ and Carrot Top. Her hair is supposed to be a lot more orange-y that. Rosalie is sexy even as a fucking action figure! Although from the pic it looks like her nostrals are flared which makes her look a bad transvestite... ish. Still sexy. Doesn't come close to my blow up doll though. (: Jacob new action figure!!! From shirt to....! NO SHIRT! And these are pretty awesome but have you seen the repaints Noel cruz did? I almost shat my pants when I found out it wasn't photoshopped. The link: http://www.twilightblog.net/2010/07/noel-cruz-latest-repaints-of-twilight.html Jacobs hair on that one is just a little... BUT OMG! They got the faces just right even the little diple in Taycobs chin! Super sexy doll of RPatts too. Thanks for the update COATCA <333ReplyDelete

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - As you head out to The Players, plan for warmer weather Saturday morning, but an increasing chance by rain on late afternoon and, possibly, Sunday.
Thursday's weather was the beginning of a warming trend. Friday morning started out comfortable, but under partly cloudy skies, temperatures soared into the upper 80s. Winds didn't offer much relief, only light and variable, developing more of a southeasterly direction during the afternoon hours.
If you're going to watch (or play) golf on Saturday, dress for warm temperatures for most of the day, as highs will climb into the mid 80s. After 3 p.m., chances for showers develop. It would be worth carrying a rain jacket in the afternoon as the forecast calls for a 50% coverage of showers and even thunderstorms between 2 and 8 p.m.
Storms Saturday evening will die down quickly after sunset.
Sunday at The Players will be partly cloudy, with a few showers firing up around 3 p.m. Sunday afternoon.
Models show up to 2 inches of rain possible in St Johns County by Sunday night -- which would quickly turn into standing water and create minor flooding issues purely due to the amount of rain last week.
If the weekend's anticipated rain were to delay play, Monday would be a great make-up day: mostly sunny and breezy, with highs reaching 83 degrees.

First-quarter results and management teams' commentaries during conference calls with analysts reaffirmed my bullish take on the deepwater drilling market. Alf Thorkildsen, CEO of SeaDrill (NYSE:SDRL), summarized the growth drivers for deepwater drillers during a May 14 conference call:
The high and stable oil price, numerous significant oil and gas discoveries, many of which are in new frontier areas such as East Africa and the Barents Sea, and limited near-term availability of rigs have created a very strong market for ultra-deepwater fleet, with day-rates exceeding $600,000 per day.
How tight is the market for ultra-deepwater rigs? Transocean's (NYSE:RIG) Deepwater Expedition, which lost a contract because of extended downtime at the end of 2011, secured a two-year fixture at a day-rate of $650,000 from an undisclosed customer.
Executives from SeaDrill, Transocean, Diamond Offshore Drilling (NYSE:DO) and Ensco (NYSE:ESV) also indicated that customers have already approached them about extending contracts that expire in 2013 and 2014.
Thorkildsen discussed this phenomenon during a conference call to discuss first-quarter results:
"There are very few rigs available, and sometimes our clients… are concerned [about] getting that capacity. So they would just knock on your door. Normally, we knock on their door. This time, they are knocking on our door and asking [us]…to sit down and have some negotiation. That is kind of the current supply-demand situation. And that is, of course, very positive [for] us."
With customers contacting contract drillers about extending contracts a year or two before they expire, I expect day rates to remain elevated. Management teams agreed that the market for ultra-deepwater drilling vessels would remain tight through at least 2014, with many arguing that a bevy of new offshore discoveries should ensure that the market will absorb coming capacity additions.
Contract drillers across the board cited accelerating exploration and development of fields offshore West Africa as an indication that this up-cycle would last longer than the prior boom. But several management teams were also bullish on the potential for Petrobras (PBR)(PBR.A) to contract additional rigs to support its ambitious production goals. Transocean, for example, predicted that Petrobras would issue a tender for up to two rigs this year, as delayed deliveries from inexperienced domestic shipyards will force Brazil's national oil company into the international market.
Diamond Offshore Drilling's CEO Lawrence Dickerson told analysts that he expected this trend to continue in coming years:
"[I]t's not going to be easy to build the number of rigs that they're talking about and brand new shipyards in Brazil. They're going to give it a good go. They're intelligent people, but I think that will not transform overnight. And when you look at the size of their geological prospects that they're drilling on, it's going to require active high-efficiency rigs going at it now."
If you wait the period of time then it's going to take to deliver all of these rigs and then get started, you've taken significant cash flow from increased production and kicked it down the road seven to ten years. So, if you do the all the math on that, I think in the foreseeable future that the U.S. guys are not necessarily going to be squeezed out, whether or not Brazil builds rigs locally or continues to contract from the outside.
Meanwhile, resurgent demand and rising day-rates for premium jack-up rigs have also bolstered the industry's growth prospects, though firms with sizable fleets of less-sophisticated models continue to suffer from lower utilization rates. At this stage in the cycle, the bifurcation of the rig market is most evident in the jack-up category, where many lower-specification rigs remain cold-stacked (in storage) and operating units struggle to secure term work.
Contract driller Transocean aims to divest between $500 million and $1 billion worth of lower-specification jack-up rigs over the course of 2012, while Diamond Offshore Drilling's management team has also expressed an interest in divesting some assets if the price is right. Ensco's jack-up fleet had a utilization rate of 84 percent in the first quarter, largely because of cold-stacked units. Management indicated that deals to divest some of these assets are in the works.
Contract drillers continue to benefit from a tight supply-demand balance in key markets, which has filtered down to conventional deepwater rigs and the still-weak midwater segment.
Nevertheless, I continue to favor names with newer fleets. Not only do recently built vessels tend to command higher day-rates than older models — particularly in the deepwater and jack-up segment — but these vessels also require less downtime for maintenance and repair.
Operators with older fleets continue to invest heavily in rig modernization. For example, Transocean in late August 2011 acquired Aker Drilling in an all-cash deal worth $1.46 billion — a 96 percent premium to Aker's market value. The deal netted Transocean two harsh-environment, ultra-deepwater rigs and two new drillships slated for delivery in 2013. Meanwhile, the company continues to divest legacy assets that have fallen out of favor.
I expect deepwater rigs to fetch elevated day-rates in the current supply-demand environment. Meanwhile, the summer soft patch will present investors with an opportunity to buy this growth story at a discount.
