MORE FALL CAMP: VIDEO: Day 11 | VIDEO: Evans Diamond Practice
SAN FRANCISCO -- Publicity stunts aside, the California football team headed across the bay on Tuesday with one sole purpose: to figure out just exactly what kind of home field advantage they'll have.
The Bears borrowed the turf of the San Francisco Giants' AT&T Park in order to get acclimated not just to the changes from grass to dirt to grass and dirt and back again -- as they did on Monday afternoon at Evans Diamond -- but to the particular kind of grass and dirt that they'll be playing five games on come the regular season.
Click Here to view this Link."We're just trying to get familiar with the setting, with the grass, the infield, get everybody used to it a little bit," said head coach Jeff TedfordClick Here to view this Link.. "This is really the only time we can be here before the first game, so I wanted to make sure that we had a chance to get a feel for the field."
Early on, some of the linebackers had trouble gaining their footing on the infield between third base and shortstop, but they soon got the hang of it.
"It's the fact that you've got to have your feet underneath you," said senior linebacker Mychal Kendricks. "You have them too far outside your body, you're going to slip. It's taking baby steps, as opposed to taking hard, fast, quick steps. Tackling, you've got to know how to roll on this stuff, or else you can really cut yourself up. Nasty burns, nasty burns. It's basically crushed brick and clay, so it'll give you a bad cut. Balls bounce a little different, you've got to be aware of where you're at."
Apart from the five home games this season, this will likely be the only time that Cal will be able to even set foot on the AT&T turf, as Tedford said that there are no full practices planned at the ballpark during the regular season. Because the Giants are returning home soon
"We've been talking about, no matter where we are, our teammates are where our strength lies," Tedford said. "If our teammates are here and we're together, then we'll be together, so it doesn't matter where we play or where we practice, we started that in the spring, practicing all over the place. They've adjusted really well. They're used to it by now. Get on a bus, go, we'd normally say it has lines on it, it's 100 yards long, 53 1/3 yards wide, that's what you play on and that's all you need. The good thing about this place is that it's going to have our fans in it, and that's very important. Any field we play on, it's about focusing on doing our business."
On the injury front, now-starting fullback Will Kapp sustained a sprained ankle on Monday, and sat out practice with a boot on his lower leg. Tailback Darren Ervin was sidelined with a quadriceps contusion suffered over the weekend.
Tight end Spencer Ladner was not in red for Tuesday's practice, but was a bit limited as he continues the rehab process on his knee.
In Ladner's stead, starting tight end Anthony Miller has shown improved hands, and with the dearth in fullbacks, converted wide receiver Spencer Hagan has excelled at the H-back position, catching several big balls from junior quarterback Zach Maynard during 7-on-7 work, including a nifty haul on a corner route.
Maynard showed better arm strength on the day, delivering two 40-yard bombs to brother Keenan Allen and senior Coleman Edmond, who continues to make noise on the outside as well as in the punt return game. Edmond showed great hands and body awareness in offensive skeleton drills.
Fellow freshman tailback Brendan Bigelow saw reps with the top unit during 7-on-7s, which was the extent of full-team work since Cal practiced just in pads. While he didn't get many carries, Bigelow did show off flashes of the speed that he had before undergoing two knee surgeries, effortlessly gliding across the turf. The way he ran was definitely distinct, but, again, there were just flashes.
"Today, he didn't really do anything," Tedford said. "He just did 7-on-7. He had a couple carries yesterday and did alright. He's getting more comfortable each day. [His speed] is starting to show. It's starting to show more. The more confidence he gets in his leg, the more you can see that."
On Wednesday, the Bears will hold a full-pads scrimmage, which should go a long way towards establishing the final depth chart.
"We're probably going to play a lot of young guys tomorrow," Tedford said of the practice, to be held back in Berkeley at Witter Rugby Field. "A lot of the starters have had most of the reps, and so we're probably going to be playing a lot of young guys tomorrow to try and get them stratified, where they may be, whether it's second, third or fourth."
One player who doesn't have to worry at all about his spot on the depth chart is Kendricks. After recording 66 tackles, 15.0 tackles for loss, 8.5 sacks, one interception and three fumble recoveries as an outside linebacker in 2010, the Butkus Award Watch List member slid over to the Mike position to accommodate the surplus of outside backers coming up through the system.
"It's coming along really well," Kendricks said of the position switch. "It's a process, but I'm getting used to it now. I'm pretty used to it. The transition from the outside to the inside wasn't too easy, but I'm making the adjustments and everything's going well. A little more patience is involced. You've got to be a lot smarter when it comes to the play. You can't just go out there and do what you want. You have to think before you do. Outside, it's more reaction."
Kendricks, a preseason honorable mention All-American (GoDaddy.com), is on watch lists for the Bednarik Award, the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, the CFPA Linebacker Trophy, the Lott IMPACT Trophy and the Rotary Lombardi Award, but was not too proud to move in order to facilitate the development of such strong outside threats as Chris McCain, David Wilkerson, Cecil Whiteside and Nick Forbes, not to mention a 2011 haul including Jason Gibson, Nathan Broussard (who's growing a Brazinskian beard, by the way) and Jalen Jefferson.
"D.J. Holt, it's funny, because D.J. Holt's been on the inside, so he's helped me with that transition," Kendricks said. "I owe a lot to D.J. Holt, because I couldn't do this without him. He's helping me out. He's helping me out with the adjustments, the calls, my alignments, he's just helping me get used to it. That allows me to help get the younger guys on the outside, like Chris McCain, Broussard, Gibson, Wilkerson, I can help them and give them tips and keys that I used to use. It's just a cycle. Having to repeat that, consciously saying it, hearing it yourself, you learn a lot that way."
Offensive Line
Apart from the linebackers, the defensive and offensive lines have had to make adjustments to new playing surfaces. Offensive line coach and offensive coordinator Jim Michalczik was his usual meticulous self with his charges on Tuesday, hammering home the importance of the mental aspect of the game.
"The biggest difference about dirt, I think, is just not letting it affect you," Michalczik said. "Just play the game. Coach Tedford has done a phenomenal job of getting these guys to think, 'This is what it is, just do it.' The human body naturally adjusts to the environment. You're waking on a rocky road, you walk a little different. The body will naturally adjust. It's the mind. I think coach has done a great job getting their minds right."
The line and the offense as a whole paid particular attention on Tuesday to protections for spikes and kneel-downs, spending much of the latter portions of the session ironing out kinks in those particular plays.
Other Notes
Defensive tackle Aaron Tipoti was back practicing in full after a set back due to a concussion.
Senior wide receiver Michael Calvin made several leaping grabs and has shown improved hands throughout camp, particularly during 7-on-7 drills on Tuesday.
On the sidelines, Bigelow carried a ball with him at all times, likely working on getting his feel for ball security back after a lengthy absence from the field following his knee injuries. No. 2 tailback Covaughn DeBoskie-Johnson was in full-on teacher mode with the younger backs, helping them to get reads right during down time on the sideline with Bigelow and Daniel Lasco.
Before his exhibition after practice, senior punter Bryan Anger was out in right field punting on his own, and routinely delivered booming shots with good hang time, hitting between 50 and 60 yards regularly. When the team practiced punt returns, Anger turned to his arm to simulate low punts, and actually showed off a pretty good gun, tossing the pigskin over 40 yards with ease.
Sophomore quarterback Allan Bridgford had a very good day, completing four of five passes after overthrowing Maurice Harris on his first attempt in 7-on-7 work. He hit freshman tight end Richard Rodgers over the middle for 20, then checked down from Bryce McGovern to find Allen underneath for a short gain. With Jefferson covering Calvin over the middle, Bridgford delivered a perfectly-placed pass to the leaping senior for a gain of five. After zinging one through the hands of tight end Scott Bueno, Bridgford found Harris over the left for a gain of 15.
Senior quarterback Brock Mansion completed three of his first four passes in 7-on-7 work, finding Ross Bostock underneath for a gain of four, and then hitting Quinn Tedford for a short gain, before overthrowing Harris and hitting Quinn Tedford again for a gain of seven.
Following practice, the entire team took running leaps at the wall in left field, and of course, once every player had taken his turn, the group all but forced the coaching staff to take a bit of a Lambeau Leap. Some did it in style - defensive backs coach Ashley Ambrose did a 360 reverse dunk over the top of the wall - and others just got it out of the way, like the head man himself.
"I did, I jumped a little," Tedford smiled. "I got called out twice."
The entire bizarre scene had a purpose, though. The wall is less than a yard from the back of the end zone, so players could find themselves on the business end of the big barrier.
"It's important that they know it's padded," Tedford said. "You look at it, and you don't know how hard or how soft it is, so it takes you a couple times to understand that it's soft, and you can run into it and it's no big deal. I hope they're smart enough not to go head first."
Some players took to leaping as high as possible to pantomime robbing a home run during their second go-arounds.

Universal Wheeled Carry Case
This luggage-style case has ergonomically placed reinforced handles that enable balance and easy maneuvering. High-impact nylon wheels with ball bearing glides making them smooth and indestructible. All case hardware is made of a heavy metal instead of plastic, increasing its durability and ease of use. This case is designed to carry any 25"-30" wide table and comes with a 1-Year Guarantee against manufacturer's defects in materials and workmanship. Specifications:
All I can say is, why oh why did I not purchase this sooner! This bag is very stable...a little tippy depending on how much is in the front, but very easily corrected when using the pull handle. I just used this to fly with my table. It was a breeze through the airport and made it through baggage handling. VERY worthwhile investment! I'm ordering another for my other table.
This case deserves it's "Master" name! It is very sturdy, carries easily, lots of storage pockets, and what I like best of all is it's hard bottom which makes setting the table into the correct position a cinch! I had to order a second one because the first case had ripped at the handles with the first use. The company shipped a new one to me immediately, with no shipping charges, and I received it in a week! I would have concerns for a therapist who is on the shorter side. I am 5'6" and it is a bit difficult for me to carry this bag up and downstairs without the wheels hitting the steps, even at the tightest adjustment. So if you were concerned with using the padded shoulder strap that could be a problem. There are safety buckles all over the case, which could be nice if the zipper failed, for me they are unnecessary. However they don't get in the way of anything. Also, the front pocket does not hold much. I am a traveling practitioner and I put my headrest and a blanket it the front pocket and that is a pretty tight squeeze. So I would say one, maybe two sets of sheets can fit in the front. I would still recommend this case to any therapist, especially one who is always on the go with their table!
I love the Universal Wheeled Carrying Case. It has saved my shoulders and back. It is easy to pull or push my table around. The only thing that I would change on the design of the case, is to change a set of wheels and make them swivel, to make it just a bit easier to take around corners. I can also put my things in the storage pockets and it stands up straight and does not fall over. This case has a lot of storage. I also want to thank Massage Warehouse, when I received my case, one of the wheels was broken. I called them to let them know and they automatically sent me a replacement without any questions. Thank you Massage Warehouse.
Yes the logo is there but so what it's only as big as shown on the picture. It really is MASTER carry case. I went thru couple different ones and this one is the best. I own the biggest, heaviest, most comfortable table and it fits and have pockets for bolster, face rest and cream. Wheels make it feel like if it was a feather not a 35 pounder. It's amazing and makes my life sooo much lighter. It is much easier to pull then a table on a carry cart for me. It has straps in the right places and extra handles to maneuver easily.
I love it!
Just received my new case, but unfortunately it has a design flaw. Once you put your supplies (very few items) in the side pockets, the case becomes unbalanced/top heavy and won't stay upright. Also has a large white imprint of "MASTER Massage Equipment Chicago" on the large pocket which is not shown in the picture.

Mayor Kasim Reed met with Gina Pagnotta, president of PACE/NAGE Local 550, and several members Wednesday to jointly discuss the framework and timeline of implementing an employee pay raise for City of Atlanta employees. He also discussed a potential employee pay raise proposal with Jesse Jones, Gwen Gillespie and other leaders of AFSCME Local 1644.
Mayor Reed outlined a plan in which employee pay raises would be discussed after the city receives the latest property tax digest figures from Fulton County in January. At that point, the mayor said he would again meet with union leaders to discuss the specific details of a permanent employee pay increase.
"We are confident that we can reach a resolution when we meet again in January," said Reed. "My goal is to agree on a pay increase for City of Atlanta employees — one that is fair to them, and responsible, affordable and sustainable for the city."
Pagnotta said she and the other union members who attended the meeting appreciated Reed's commitment to decline a personal pay raise if he is elected to a second mayoral term. The mayor earns $147,500 per year; the raise approved last week by the Atlanta City Council and effective in January 2014 would increase his salary by 25 percent to $184,300 per year.
Pagnotta said the meeting was "heartfelt" and ended on an optimistic note.
"I've never seen Mayor Reed go back on his word," Pagnotta said. "He said he wants to give employees a meaningful raise, something that after taxes are taken out can be used to make a real difference, like pay a large bill. On our end, we said we work to
improve employee morale in the city's departments and encourage even more efficiency and productivity."
"We're pleased Mayor Reed is committed to fairly compensating the thousands of public servants who come to work every day on behalf of the residents, business owners and visitors to our great city," said Jesse Jones, president of AFSCME Local 1644. "We look forward to meeting with him in January to develop a pay raise proposal that will make a difference in the lives of so many employees."
Since taking office in January 2010, Reed has worked to bring fiscal stability to the city, which experienced employee lay-offs and severe cutbacks for several years prior to his election. He enacted a series of measures to improve the city's financial health, leading to three balanced budgets in a row with no property tax increases.
The city's reserves have grown from $7.4 million to $110 million, and Reed, in partnership with the Atlanta City Council and the employee unions, approved a pension reform plan that will lead to $270 million in savings over the next 10 years.
At the same time, the Reed administration has worked to improve customer service and fairly compensate city employees. City officials recently adjusted employee salaries to 80 percent of the market rate to ensure the workers are being fairly compensated.
In 2010, the Reed administration provided sworn officers and firefighters with a 3.5 percent raise and gave a $450 bonus to general employees making less than $70,000 per year.
Reed said: "I will continue to build a best-in-class workforce that rewards performance while keeping my promise to residents to strengthen the city's financial health, attract business investment and development, and encourage entrepreneurship."

BERLIN- Providing further evidence lacrosse is currently the fastest growing sport in the local area and across the Eastern Shore, a new youth recreational program has been formed to meet the growing demand for adequate instruction and playing time for young players in the area.
With the goal of offering another option for young lacrosse players in the area, a group of dedicated and committed parents and local business people have formed the Coastal Lacrosse Club. In its inaugural season, the Coastal Lacrosse Club will be offering league opportunities for boys and girls ages 7-14.
In addition, the program will be volunteering with the Ocean City Recreation and Parks Department to provide an early introduction of lacrosse skills for players picking up the sport for the first time, as well as boys and girls in Pre-K to 2nd grade. A U.S. Lacrosse-Level 1-certified coach will lead each team along with other coaches and volunteers.
The Coastal Lacrosse Club is a member of the Delaware Youth Lacrosse Foundation, a regional chapter of U.S. Lacrosse. The mission statement clearly states what the Coastal Lacrosse Club is all about. The club will offer instructional and developmental programs for boys and girls of all ages.
The coaches and volunteers are committed to providing a uniform and organized program, emphasizing the basic and finer skills and strategies of the sport in order to prepare the player to compete at the next level. Players at all skill levels will have the opportunity to develop their game in a positive environment that promotes teamwork, fair play, good sportsmanship and lots of fun.
The season will begin in March of 2009. The club will participate in a 12 game schedule, which will include both home and away games. All games will be played on Sundays. Practices will begin in early March, and will end with an exciting round robin league tournament held at the end of May.
In order to maintain a low player to coach ratio, the club will limit the number of players per team. This will allow coaches to provide more individualized instruction and guarantee playing time to each player on the team. Teams will be formed solely on a first come-first serve basis and are open to players from all areas of Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia. Divisions will be created based on the total number of registrations received for each age group. Registration for the 2009 spring season is currently being accepted. For registration information, please access Coastal Lacrosse Club's website at www.coastallaxclub.com.

Paul Gray Jr., RHS Quiz Bowl leader, said the event's popularity is increasing.
"We had 30 teams last year from eight schools," he said. "This is the second year for RHS to host."
The jamboree is a practice tournament to prepare children in the region for future events.
"We want kids to practice and get experience before region and state playoffs in March and April," Gray said. "This is more about getting kids into game situations where the stakes are lower."
There are no winners named or trophies awarded at the tournament. Each team plays three games, regardless of performance.
Russellville, Dardanelle, Atkins, Clarksville, Dover, Scranton, Hector, Ozark and Danville sent teams of players ranging from fourth graders to seniors to participate in the jamboree.
Gray said the jamboree helps get students excited about Quiz Bowl.
"It is a way to build up Quiz Bowl in our district and others," he said. "It's also a good way for kids to meet other players from around the region."
The RHS Quiz Bowl players will use the jamboree as practice before the annual Teacher vs. Students Quiz Bowl.
Gray said the stakes are high in that tournament because the teams are playing for bragging rights.
"The teachers have an 8-4 record against the students in the last three years," he said. "Of course, there is a little talk between the two teams."
The RHS students will battle their teachers at 3:30 p.m. on Nov. 19 in the Crimson Room at the high school.

New PTSD center near Fort Drum hopes to pair soldiers, vets with volunteer counselors
By GORDON BLOCK | Watertown Daily Times, N.Y. | Published: December 8, 2012
WATERTOWN, N.Y. — A new peer support center that aims to help soldiers and veterans who are facing post-traumatic stress disorder by pairing them with other veterans held its grand opening Friday.
"All it takes is one little spark ... a uniform tab, a picture," said Kirsten L. Feldmann, a military, veteran and family advocate for the Mental Health Association in Jefferson County. "They just talk for hours, things they wouldn't open up about to somebody in a white suit."
The center, in the Marcy Building, 167 Polk St., will house the new Pfc. Joseph Dwyer Peer Support Program for Veterans, which is supported by a $200,000 state grant to Jefferson County Community Services. The agency then selected the Mental Health Association in Jefferson County to run the program.
The new center was made possible by pairing the new funds with a Resiliency and Recovery Initiative grant from Bristol-Myers Squibb.
At the new center, staff could be seen showing off the space, which has multiple lounge areas to support group sessions.
"This is a very informal space," said Theodore R. Stiles Jr., the association's executive director.
Mr. Stiles, a veteran who served for five years at Fort Drum, said he saw the center as a place that would direct soldiers to services they need. The grand opening date for the center, which opened earlier in the week, was chosen to coincide with Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day.
Pfc. Dwyer, a combat medic who rose to fame in 2003 when a photo was released of him carrying an injured Iraqi boy, died in 2008 of an accidental drug overdose after struggling with PTSD.
The center still is recruiting volunteer counselors, but one volunteer in the program will help other veterans after being aided by the association himself.
Merrill A. Peters, an Army veteran whose 11-year career included service in Vietnam, was helped by the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Mental Health Association after becoming homeless a few years ago. He said he had faced PTSD and night terrors for decades, as well as injuries related to contact with Agent Orange.
While in the association's respite housing waiting for permanent low-income housing, he would have coffee daily with Melissa R. Amos, another military, family and veteran advocate. The meetings allowed him to discuss the issues he had with his dreams and memories.
"It was the first time anybody had talked to him about it," said Ms. Amos, a medic who served in the Army, Army National Guard and Army Reserve for a combined 16 years. "Nobody addressed his mental health."
Working together, Ms. Amos helped Mr. Peters seek resources that allowed his disability payments to increase to 80 percent of his salary, and recently to 100 percent. In addition, a recent review of Agent Orange claims by Congress led to a settlement that allowed Mr. Peters to purchase a home in Watertown that he had helped to build decades earlier with his father.
He said his money, along with the house, will go to the Mental Health Association when he dies. Mr. Peters said that in addition to talking to fellow veterans, he will drive them to doctor appointments and on errands.
"Anytime they need to go somewhere, they can call on me," he said.
In the main walkway, Sgt. 1st Class David J. Geig could be seen at a desk drawing an image of Pfc. Dwyer, re-creating the 2003 photo.
"It speaks volumes about soldiers helping," Sgt. Geig said of the original image, which he had on a computer screen near his canvas. Sgt. Geig, a member of the 1st Brigade who will deploy early next year, said he had spent 60 hours on the drawing, with about another 15 to go.
As a soldier, Sgt. Geig said, he was happy to see another outlet for veterans to receive help.
"Who better to talk to them than somebody who's gone through it themselves?" he said.

Topic: 1st time install - no mail is moving - assistance is appreciated.
==== Required information ====

- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Centos 6.3
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
greets to you!
i have been setting up iredmail on a new server for the first time and have so far:
installed iredadmin with mysql option - mysql and apache and phpmyadmin were already installed for my website anyway.
successfully logged in to iredadmin
created the domain in iredadmin for my site
created 2 email accounts for that domain
logged in to roundcube
i have not so far seen any emails move when i attempt to send them.
i do not have an SSL certificate setup yet, i was looking at using CAcert.org to create my own free certificate; however, they require me to have access to the email account for the site (e.g. email@example.com) to allow me to create the certificate.
when i setup iredadmin i used the domain mail.mydomain.com, thinking that the domain i put in would be the one that is accessible to mail clients.. then realised that most likely i just needed to use mydomain.com; as yet i have not changed any settings in the mail apps relating to this. i created a virtualhost record in httpd.conf for mail.mydomain.com and pointed it to the iredadmin install folder.. which now i think maybe is not needed.
what i am encountering is that i am unable to connect to the server to send mail through it (thunderbird reports a server error) and when i send mails to it from hotmail they don't show up and i haven't yet seen any record of them in any logs.
the firewall ports are open.
i attempted to check smtp connection using telnet.. i see:
# telnet localhost smtp
Trying ::1...
telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mydomain.com ESMTP Postfix
edit: additionally the login details i entered, which work for iredadmin, do not work for awstats. (i reset the password for awstats, using: htpasswd -c /etc/httpd/conf.d/awstats.passwd admin..) - still no access.
does anyone see any issues i am best served by exploring and maybe changing?

You said: They're Out. A full 50% think they're out, with another 22% believing they're on the way out. Only 28% are still all over this trend.
Omiru's take: On the racks, this skirt silhouette is adorable. However, once we put the skirt on, our love affair started to fade. Figure flattery, once again, was the issue here. Problem 1: the pouf–which adds visual weight to the derrière and upper leg. Problem 2: the length–which tended to run a bit too long to be attractive on any but the longest legs.
Next Question: Tell us, what do you
think about 3/4 Length Jackets? Are they In, or are they Out? Cast your vote on

text: Have you ever wondered why you have red hair and freckles or why heart disease or cancer seem to "run" in certain families; whether we will eventually be able to use gene therapy to cure genetic disorders such as cystic fibrosis or sickle cell anemia, or what impact this explosion of genetic engineering may have upon our society? These are some of the issues we will address in the course. The course will have a two-fold focus. First, we will introduce students to the basic concepts of human genetics, discuss a number of human genetic disorders and the ways in which they arise, and examine the impact that genetic engineering and recombinant DNA technology are having on the diagnosis, treatment and possible cure of some of these disorders. Second, we will consider the impact of human genetics on society. We will examine some of the misconceptions that have surrounded the inheritance of genetic traits and disorders in other times and societies. We will at look some of the attempts that have been made to "control" human heredity, including the eugenics movement, mandatory sterilization and marriage laws, and the successes and failures of genetic screening programs. We will also consider the Human Genome project and the impact it may have upon our society, both positive and negative. Finally, we will consider some of the legal and bio-ethical issues being raised as a result of the rapid explosion of genetic technology. Students will be encouraged to become active participants in the learning process. In addition to being exposed to new concepts in lecture, they will have an opportunity to discuss issues raised in class, interact with guest lecturers, and express their thoughts in the form of short essays. Outside the lecture, students will participate in a collaborative learning group once a week.

Photo Gallery: Children test their book knowledge at Kids' Lit Quiz
PUBLISHED: 20:40 21 November 2012 | UPDATED: 21:18 21 November 2012
Archant © 2012
Norfolk schools went head-to-head in a battle of book knowledge at City of Norwich School this evening.
Teams of 11 to 13-year-olds from schools in Norfolk and Suffolk were competing in the regional heat of a children's literature quiz.
The Kids' Lit Quiz, now in its tenth year, aims to improve literacy among secondary school pupils by encouraging them to read more.
Of the 25 teams from the 16 schools which took part, Thetford Grammar School emerged victorious.
Second place was taken by Thorpe St Andrew High School while Sheringham High School was in third.
Pupils were asked 10 questions in 10 different rounds on literature including myths and legends, comic strips as well as classic and contemporary books.
The winners will of the regional heat will now go on to compete in the national final in Coventry on December 6.
And the UK winners will represent the country in the world finals in Durban in South Africa in July 2013.
The heat was organised by Norfolk County Council's School Library Service.
Helena Last from the service said: "It was very successful and we felt that all the children displayed some fantastic literary knowledge."

On this current Knicks team we have 8 unproven players in Renaldo Balkman, Wilson Chandler, Mardy Collins, Jamal Crawford and Eddy Curry(Jamal has been in the NBA for 7 and Curry 6 seasons not one playoff game on their respective resumes), David Lee, Randolph Morris and Nate Robinson none have yet to be in the playoffs. With the exception of Jamal and Eddy this is alright they are mostly rookies and 2nd, 3rd year players.
Now my beef is with the players that we taken in and not drafted A.K.A ****-Heads and Marbury (Not Starbury)
Jared Jeffries-whose career average is - 5.6ppg and 4.6rbs with 23.6 mins.
-whose playoff career average is 7 ppg and 4.9 rbs with 28
mins. (loser)
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]-whose career average is - 4.6ppg and 3.1rbs with 13.4 mins
-whose playoff career average is - 9.4ppg and 4.1 rbs in
21.7 mins. (biggest loser! and waste of flesh)
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]- whose career average is - 7.4ppg and 2.2 rbs with 23 mins
- whose playoff career average is - 5ppg and 2.3 rbs in 20 mins
(good solid backup gaurd plays with good energy and has
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]- whose career average is - 16.2ppg and 7.9rbs with 29 mins
- whose playoff average is -12.1ppg and 7.6rbs w/ 25.8 mins
(an overweight ballhogg , who palys no defense showed it
last night vs. the pacers)
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]- whose career average is- 11.9ppg and 5.1 rbs with
28.4 mins
- whose playoff average is- 11.9ppg and 5.1 rbs with
37.6 mins ( a good defensive player with attitude but
is very injury prone and should not be starting)
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ] - whose career average is- 6.4 ppg and 4.3rbs with 17 mins.
-whose playoff average is - 6.2 ppg and 4.3rbs with 17.2
mins.(great role model player for community, but most of his
career he was a cheerleader and positive guidance to players
like tony parker, but his impact hasn't isn't on the court... you
have your ring retire)
Stephon Marbury - whose career average is- 19.7 ppg and 7.8asst and 3.0 rbs.
- whose playoff average is 19.4ppg and 6.7asst and 3.8 rbs.( I like Marbury as a man "no homo" but he hasn't ever been past the first round of the playoffs others would say well so has T-Mac but marbury just doesn't have that kind of impact he use to when he was an all star his best years are past him, i want whats best for you man and maybe what he wants isn't the best for the Knicks organization...)
Guys these players have been to the playoff some haven't made it out of the first round, a captain on our team never made it to the playoffs our young guys don't get running time because of these ball-hogging players who is only about the "me,me,me.." philosophy i hope there is trade in the future within a month.... we need to let our young guys prove themselves look at what the pacers did with Granger young but he had a chance and made the most of it and so did Andre Iguodala, Kevin Martin , Brandon Roy maybe our guy can be This 6'8 defensive minded small forward Wilson Chandler or Balkman you never know ... Give your thought Knick fans thanks

Sensors Combat Corrosion
0 comments post a comment
The Energy Pipelines Cooperative Research Centre and Deakin University of Australia are working on an innovative sensor able to monitor corrosion-related pipeline damage.
The Energy Pipelines Cooperative Research Centre and Deakin University of Australia are working on an innovative sensor able to monitor corrosion-related pipeline damage.
The degradation of materials' properties based on environmental interaction is inevitable as metals attempt to return to their native low-energy oxide state. The best that can be done is not avoidance, but only control. Several industry studies over the past several decades place the direct cost of corrosion in the US at approximately $275 billion annually.
Accidents and explosions are the norm as a result of corrosion. In 2014 alone, they include:
- On January 10, a 12-inch PSNC gas transmission pipeline exploded in Asheville, N.C. Property damage was approximately $825,000.
- In February, gas pipelines exploded in North Dakota and Kentucky. While the North Dakota explosion caused no injuries, in Kentucky two people were hospitalized and homes were destroyed.
- Three accidents in March due to oil and or gas pipeline leaks spilled substantial amounts of oil and caused gas explosions in Texas, New York, and Ohio. In Ohio, the oil spill affected animals in a nature preserve.
Pipeline corrosion falls under the uniform or general corrosion category. This uniform corrosion also is seen in bridge rust, tarnished silver, and color changes of bronze statues. Some metals, including stainless steel, titanium, and even aluminum, form oxide film naturally, but the film can break down and cause cracking, pitting, and other forms of corrosion. Uniform corrosion can be accurately predicted, and the solution is to protect the metal by adding coatings or creating more resistant alloys. Organic coatings are often used to slow the process, inhibitors can be added, and with steel, adding chromium staves off corrosion.
In underground situations, the challenges are obvious. It's difficult to see the level of corrosion, impossible to add surface solutions on an ongoing basis, and inhibitors are often the solution of choice.
Typically, coatings inside the pipes are used to prevent corrosion. However, over time the coatings cease to be effective, resulting in leaks or failure. Many major gas explosions are attributable to such corrosion and leaks. The current means of finding corrosion problems are only effective after damage is greater than 30% of the pipe's wall thickness. Corrosion monitoring is also very expensive now, requiring manual ultrasonic measurements and often digging up pipe, removing coatings, etc.
The new sensor technology is based on continuous monitoring of the protection used on the pipes. The sensor monitors and identifies corrosion well before it becomes a catastrophic event.
So far, tests are lab-based, but they are expected to move into the field in a real underground pipeline yet this year. While the sensor is being designed specifically for oil and gas pipeline applications, it's easy to imagine a broad range of industrial applications where corrosion occurs and testing is cumbersome or close to impossible, as with underground pipes.

1. Were you surprised at how undiscouraged Jacob remained, despite Bella's assertions that she loves only Edward?
No. He isnt going to give up on her. As long as her heart is still beating I cant see him not trying. He believes that there is hope for her to see.
2. How did you feel about the kiss? Were you shocked like Bella, or did you see it coming?
The kiss seemed to me like it was kind of harsh. I kind of knew that it was coming though.
3. Everyone reacted so differently to the kiss. What did you think about Bella's reaction? Jacob's? What about Charlie's? And how did you think Edward was going to react?
Bellas reaction was something that I would do too. She didn't want Jacob to kiss her. Jacobs reaction was kind of funny to me. I mean he didnt care that she wasnt even trying to kiss him back. And he just jokes around when he hits her. Charlies is funny too. I could tell that Edward was not happy at all when Bella told him that Jacob kissed her.
4. Did you feel horror at the news of Jasper and Emmett's bet, as Bella did?
5. As you read the end of the chapter, what did you think had Bella particularly concerned when she mused, "Was there a human experience I was not willing to give up?"
Well, she is set on spending the rest of her life with him. She doesnt want to have to give up some human experiences.

This study is provided by ICPSR. ICPSR provides leadership and training in data access, curation, and methods of analysis for a diverse and expanding social science research community.
Pattern of Human Concerns Data, 1957-1963 (ICPSR 7023)
Principal Investigator(s): Cantril, Hadley
Of the 14 nations included in the original study, these data cover the following ten: Brazil, Cuba, Dominican Republic, India, Israel, Nigeria, Panama, United States, West Germany, and Yugoslavia. (The data for Egypt, Japan, the Philippines, and Poland are not available through ICPSR.) In India and Israel the interviews were conducted in two waves, with different samples. Besides ascertaining the usual personal information, the study employed a "Self-Anchoring Striving Scale," an open-ended scale asking the respondent to define hopes and fears for self and the nation, to determine the two extremes of a self-defined spectrum on each of several variables. After these subjective ratings were obtained, the respondents indicated their perceptions of where they and their nations stood on a hypothetical ladder at three different points in time. Demographic variables include the respondents' age, gender, marital status, and level of education. For more information on the samples, coding, and the means of measurement, see the related publication listed below.

Sample: Separate samples were drawn in each country. All samples were intended to be crossnational, except for the kibbutz sample in Israel. However, both India samples underrepresent females, and the sample from Cuba was drawn exclusively from urban areas. In addition, the samples from Brazil, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, India, Nigeria, Panama, and the United States were weighted to achieve the intended representation.

Have you ever said this to anyone: "I'm so busy I have to work until 8 pm every day?"
In my 28 years in the mortgage business, I can't begin to tell you the number of times I've made excuses to my family, friends and even myself as to why I had to work late. Go in the office on Saturday or Sunday. Stop by the office on my way to dinner. Take phone calls at 10 pm.
Here's the toll that it took on me:
- I was getting fat from eating junk food and not exercising.
- I got migraine headaches on a regular basis
- I ignored my friends and family
- I took files with me to my children's ball games
- I took phone calls during "family time."
Oh, and I went to bed as soon as I got home, only to get up at 5 am and start all over again. One day I decided that I had to STOP this obsessive/compulsive behavior and figure out a way to "have a life" again.
That's when I decided to hire my first assistant—and I've never looked back!
My hope is that what I described above is not what you are doing now. Unfortunately, I've heard from many loan officers that they are tired of working late and how sad there are because they are not able to spend time with family and friends.
If you are too busy to even think about hiring an assistant, I'd like to help you out a little bit by providing you with a questionnaire that you can use to interview candidates for your assistant position.
One more tip, you don't have to hire him or her full time; start out with 10 hours a week then keep transferring tasks over to them over the course of three to six months. Start small and think big.
Please email firstname.lastname@example.com if you'd like a copy of Hiring an Assistant Interview Questions.

CLEVELAND — The woman's voice was frantic and breathless, and she was choking back tears. "Help me. I'm Amanda Berry," she told a 911 dispatcher. "I've been kidnapped and I've been missing for 10 years and I'm, I'm here, I'm free now."
Those words led police to a house near downtown Cleveland where Berry and two other women who vanished a decade ago were found Monday, elating family members and friends who had longed to see them again.
Authorities later arrested three brothers. They released no names and gave no information about them or what charges they might face.
City officials have scheduled a news conference for Tuesday morning.
Police Chief Michael McGrath said he thinks Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight were tied up at the house and held there since they were in their teens or early 20s.
A 6-year-old also was found in the home, but police didn't disclose the child's identity or relationship to anyone in the home. The women appeared to be in good health and were taken to a hospital to be evaluated and be reunited with relatives.
The women's escape and rescue began with a frenzied cry for help.
A neighbor, Charles Ramsey, told WEWS-TV he heard screaming Monday and saw Berry, whom he didn't recognize, at a door that would open only enough to fit a hand through. He said she was trying desperately to get outside and pleaded for help to reach police.
"I heard screaming," he said. "I'm eating my McDonald's. I come outside. I see this girl going nuts trying to get out of a house."
Neighbor Anna Tejeda was sitting on her porch with friends when they heard someone across the street kicking a door and yelling.
Tejeda, 50, said one of her friends went over and told Berry how to kick the screen out of the bottom of the door, which allowed her to get out.
Speaking Spanish, which was translated by one of her friends, Tejeda said Berry was nervous and crying. She was dressed in pajamas and old sandals.
At first Tejeda said she didn't want to believe who the young woman was. "You're not Amanda Berry," she insisted. "Amanda Berry is dead."
But when Berry told her she'd been kidnapped and held captive, Tejeda said she gave her the telephone to call police, who arrived within minutes and then took the other women from the house.
On a recorded 911 call Monday, Berry declared, "I'm Amanda Berry. I've been on the news for the last 10 years."
She said she had been taken by someone and begged for police officers to come to the home on Cleveland's west side before the man returned.
"I've been kidnapped, and I've been missing for 10 years," she told the dispatcher. "And I'm here. I'm free now."
Berry disappeared at age 16 on April 21, 2003, when she called her sister to say she was getting a ride home from her job at a Burger King. About a year later, DeJesus vanished at age 14 on her way home from school. Police said Knight disappeared in 2002 and is 32 now.
Berry is now 27, according to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. Authorities didn't provide a current age DeJesus.

05. Velvet Girl - Walking In Sunshine (Cass & Slide Remix) [Additive | 12AD060]
Released: 2000 (exact date unknown) Written By: Laurent Christian Georges VÈronnez
Velvet Girl (aka Laurent VÈronnez, Cosmic Junkie, Airwave and part of Planisphere, whose 'Deep Blue Dream' was on Seaman's GU 012 Bueson Aires) also gave us the classic Oakey 1999 anthem 'Summertime'. 'Walking In Sunshine' had an extended batch of releases and remixes for progressive trance labels Bonzai UK and Green Martian who provided anotehr great Paul Oakenfold staple in Red Sign - Wonderland.
Here the trance is toned down as Cass'n'Slide their own take on proceedings. Cass Cutbush & Pete Martin are the British production/remix duo famous for their brooding progressive trance anthems, expert remixes and DJ Sets (incl. a 2001 Essential Mix and guest mixes for John's show). The duo met in 1999 while they both were working at the London based Flying Rhino Records. They released "Diablo" on Flying Rhino before relocating to the Cass (and fellow Englishmen Lee Burridge) owned Fire records. The duo were given world-wide exposure when the Evolution remix of "Diablo" appeared on John Digweed's Hong Kong Global Underground mix CD, and their massive trance anthem "Perception" was featured on Sasha's Ibiza Global Underground mix CD. The duo's remix skills were also gaining notoriety with an increasing amount of their reworks appearing on various DJ mix CDs, the most popular being their superb remix of Astral Projection's "Liquid Sun".
The duo released a full-length album in 2002, which turned out to be a departure from their usual sound with a larger focus on the breaks and down-tempo sounds of the electronic music spectrum. The CD received mixed reviews, and Cass & Slide's production/remix out-put halted when Cass' Fire label folded in early 2003. As a duo they have remained largely inactive since, although Cass has since worked with Tom Mangan (as Cass & Mangan and Deadset) and has his 'Cass Collective' project http://soundcloud.com/casscollective .

After the success of their first self-titled album, the two began building their extensive remixography with reworkings for Faithless, Inner City, Sunscreem, Art of Noise and more. The 2000-single "The Fall" signalled the coming of new studio material, which culminated in the release of the full-length "Intensify" on Distinct'ive Breaks Records in 2001. The "Don't Look Now" album followed in 2004. In 2008, they released the single "Spaceman" on [Invalid Artist] and their 4th studio album "We Love Machine" in September, 2009.

Deep Dish Bio
Deep Dish are the duo of Dubfire and Sharam. Originally from Iran, they took root in the Washington, DC area in the early 90's and established themselves as top-flight producers and DJ's, releasing several mix-cds (most notably "Penetrate Deeper") and building production credits on Tribal Records and their own Deep Dish Recordings.
They had successful collaborations with BT and Carl Craig, and several of their remixes were instant classics, including their remixes of "Hideaway" by De'Lacy, and Sandy B's "Make The World Go 'Round". Their "Yoshiesque" and "Global Underground: Moscow" mix-cds brought them massive acclaim around the turn of the century. They run the popular house label Yoshitoshi Recordings, as well as its sister labels Shinichi and Yo!.
More lately they have branched out on their own with Dubfire now running SCI + TEC Digital Audio.

A musician and carpenter, Lincoln Jarrett beats the high costs of modern life by renting historic properties, but the downside is that he is often a prisoner of the past, bound by a perception that preservation rules discourage simple upkeep and maintenance, he said.
In Hartford, Conn., Jarrett lived on the same street, Farmington Avenue, as the Victorian mansion where Mark Twain worked on many novels such as Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
In Telluride, he shared a house that was one of the citys original medical buildings. Its basement served as a makeshift morgue during a plague in the early 1900s.
Jarrett currently lives in a local landmark at the southern end of East Third Avenue. Built in 1898, the home is representative of simply designed homes of the time period with a steeply pitched gable roof, a paneled and glazed door, and double-hung windows, according to city records.
Because large historical homes are often subdivided into smaller apartments, their rents are affordable, but Jarrett also must put up with ghosts and a past resistant to change.
Ed Kruse, the owner of Jarretts current home at 262 E. Third Ave., said residents have often told him the house is haunted, but Jarrett said living above a morgue in Telluride was much creepier.
The Third Avenue home has a less macabre history as a home for railroad and smelter workers and a pool hall owner named Todocia Dominguez, according to Kruse and city records.
Jarrett, the singer and bass player for a Rocky Mountain reggae band called A-Dub Rock, said he loves the house and location overlooking Smelter Mountain. Its lack of side windows allows his band to practice without disturbing the neighbors.
The 23-foot-wide house almost fills up the 25-foot-wide lot. It almost touches the house to the north, according to a description by the Colorado Historical Society.
As a handyman, the native Jamaican would be happy to make simple repairs around the house, but he said he was discouraged by preservation rules intended to protect the buildings original character.
In my country of Jamaica, we like where we live to be nice. I look at this place, I think it needs a paint job, (I should) redo all this stuff, he said.
Tree roots appear to be pushing up the pavement in front the house, but he was told by another tenant he would have to inform some people before he started any work.
So he did not bother, although he realizes his attitude was formed by his experiences on the East Coast rather than any interaction with the city of Durango.
I went through this in Connecticut. In Connecticut, its a real process, he said. You cant do nothing. So I just used my imagination, and I didnt even pursue it (in Durango).
As one of the residents of Jarretts old Hartford neighborhood might have put it, the stringency of preservation regulation is greatly exaggerated.
I think in most cases, perception of the process is much different than the reality, said Vicki Vandegrift, a senior planner for Durango.
I can tell you that the Historical Preservation Board would certainly allow work on a property to repair the foundation, also to remove the cause of the problem, she said.
Vandegrift said much work can be done administratively and approved at the counter at City Hall.
This may be the case with the foundation work,.It will depend on what they need to do to fix the problem, she said. There is no fee associated with a (historic preservation) review, and the one-page application form is very simple.
In his dealing with the city, Kruse, the property owner, he said he was frustrated when he wanted to a put a metal roof on the house, but metal roofing is not approved in the historic district, even though every house on that last block of Third Avenue has metal roofing.
If I was doing it myself, I would have just done the metal roofing, Kruse said. Since I hired a contractor, he did not want a mark on his license.
The citys concern was that the snow from a metal roof would slide onto the neighbors property given the proximity, Vandegrift said.
Because historic guidelines do not support a modern style of roofing, these projects cannot be approved in-house or administratively, but certain kinds of metal roofs might be allowed after a review process, Vandegrift said.
Because asphalt shingles were preapproved for the house, the contractor could begin work immediately. The applicant did not apply for a different roofing material, Vandegrift said.
The house also has some unoriginal aluminum siding. Underneath it is shingle siding. It really would be prettier if you took all that stuff off, Kruse said.
Overall, though, the house is solid, a lot more solid than you would think, Kruse said.
If there is major work to be done, it is possible for the property owner to receive tax credits for rehabilitating a historic home, Vandegrift said.
Its a 20 percent credit on state income taxes up to $50,000, Vandegrift said.
Since 1995, 21 historic property owners in Durango have taken advantage of the incentive, including three homeowners on East Third Avenue who are currently rehabilitating properties. One of the homeowners is removing asbestos.
Vandegrift encourages people to apply for the tax-credit incentive. The preservation board loves to approve them, she said.

Twins' winning run confirmed by instant replay
White Sox challenge Escobar's game-winning slide in ninth
By Alex Smith / MLB.com
MINNEAPOLIS -- The Twins' dramatic 5-4 win over the White Sox on Friday night at Target Field was confirmed by replay review.
With two outs and runners on first and second in the bottom of the ninth, Brian Dozier looped a single into left field. Eduardo Escobar slid head-first into home just as the throw from Alejandro De Aza reached catcher Adrian Nieto, and home-plate umpire Andy Fletcher called Escobar safe.
But as the celebration at Target Field began, White Sox manager Robin Ventura spoke with the umpires and they decided to review the play.
"I honestly didn't think he could reach back with his other hand and touch the plate," Nieto said. "So you've got to tip your hat off to that. He did a great job touching with his other hand."
Replays showed that Nieto blocked Escobar's left hand from reaching the plate, but Escobar was indeed able to touch the plate with his right hand before Nieto tagged him on the lower leg.
"When I saw the replay I was just like, 'Ah,'" Nieto said. "But it helps that there's replay. Unfortunately, it went their way."
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire thought that because Nieto blocked the plate, the run should've counted either way.
"I know you can make an adjustment to the ball coming in, but you're supposed to be in fair territory with your foot," Gardenhire said. "But I would've had an issue if they would have called it [out]."
The review lasted 63 seconds. Fletcher made the "safe" call, and the postgame fireworks show began.

I'm still a rookie with C and I'm calculating some thermodynamic parameters for meteorology and want to show the freezing levels. I can get it too show all heights that are 0 degrees C or lower... but I want it to only show the 1 or 2 levels that the temp changes from positive to zero or lower. Data file example would be
height temp 100 10 1000 -2 1500 5 2000 -7 2500 -15
I would want it to say there is a freezing level at 1000 and 2000 meters. Any help would be great!
