Christine Clark matched her career-high with 28 points as the Crimson dropped its season opener at Iowa (Gil Talbot).
IOWA CITY, Iowa – The Harvard women's basketball team put an early scare into Iowa and led by as many as 14 points in the first half, but could not sustain its pressure and fell to the host Hawkeyes 90-81 in its first game at the KCRG-TV 9 Hawkeye Challenge.
Christine Clark matched her career-high with a game-high 28 points, hitting 10-of-20 attempts from the field and 7-of-11 at the line. The sophomore also corralled six rebounds, dished out three assists and blocked three shots. Missy Mullins and Elle Hagedorn scored 12 points and 10 points, respectively, coming off the bench as the Crimson (0-1) shot 44.9 percent for the game and hit 8-of-20 from three-point range.
Jaime Printy led Iowa (1-0) with 24 points and six rebounds while Morgan Johnson and Kelly Krei added 18 points and 16 points. The Hawkeyes finished the game shooting at a 50.8 percent clip and went 21-of-27 at the line.
UNLV defeated Butler in the tournament's first game, 62-39, setting up a matchup between the Crimson and Bulldogs tomorrow at 1 p.m. in the consolation game. Fans can follow the action via live stats by clicking here. Iowa and UNLV will meet to decide the tournament champion at 3:30 p.m.
Miriam Rutzen buried a three-pointer for an early 5-3 lead and after consecutive Clark buckets the Crimson held a 9-5 advantage. Iowa evened the score at nine on a Kamille Wahlin three, but Brogan Berry answered at the other end to put Harvard back on top. Clark followed Rutzen's second three with a traditional three-point play to make it a 17-9 game just over five minutes in.
Mullins gave Harvard a 22-9 lead with her first basket of the night and an Emma Golen three with just under 10 minutes remaining put the Crimson up by 14, 28-14. Samantha Logic finished a fast break to cut Iowa's deficit to 30-22 but Clark ended the run with a three-pointer to regain a 33-22 advantage.
Harvard led 40-31 after Elise Gordon put back her own miss, but the Hawkeyes scored the final six points of the half to put the score at 40-37 at the break. Clark led all scorers with 15 first-half points and added four rebounds, two assists and two blocks. A big part of Harvard's early success was its ability to capitalize on Iowa's mistakes, as the Crimson turned six Hawkeye turnovers into eight points and its seven offensive rebounds led to nine second-chance points.
Early turnovers in the second half allowed Iowa to take its first lead since the early moments of the game, 42-40. An Elle Hagedorn three-pointer put Harvard back on top 45-44 and two possessions later her baseline drive made it a 47-46 game in the Crimson's favor. Clark scored four straight points to keep Harvard on pace with the Hawkeyes and with 11:28 to play a Mullins three tied the game at 55.
An 13-3 run over the next 4:55 allowed Iowa to open a 68-58 margin. Clark ended the Crimson's drought with back-to-back baskets in the paint and scored eight of the team's next 10 points to pull back within seven, 75-68. The Hawkeye mistakes that were prevalent in the first half were nonexistent down the stretch, though, as Iowa outscored Harvard 15-13 over the game's final 4:30 to take the 90-81 victory.
GAME NOTES: Sophomore Christine Clark matched her career-high with 28 points … Sophomore Missy Mullins scored a career-high 12 points, surpassing her previous high of two … Senior Brogan Berry moved into fifth place in Harvard history with 403 career assists (6 tonight) … Junior Emma Golen made her first career start vs. the Hawkeyes while senior Brogan Berry made her 87th … The loss drops Harvard to 19-19 all-time in season openers (17-15 under Kathy Delaney-Smith) and and 1-5 against the Big Ten.

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson must once again come back from offseason surgery.
Peterson will undergo groin surgery on Thursday in Philadelphia, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Wednesday, per a source informed of the player's condition. ESPN's Josina Anderson first reported the news.
Peterson missed two of the final four games of the 2013 season with the groin injury. He was limited in the other two.
Dr. William Meyers, who performed Peterson's sports hernia operation last year, will handle this surgery as well. It was determined Peterson needed to go under the knife after he met with the doctor in Philadelphia on Wednesday.
Peterson also suffered a sprained right foot late in the year.
The Vikings star finished the season with 1,266 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns en route to his sixth Pro Bowl selection. However, he won't play in Sunday's game as he deals with the injury.

"Of course china is a country with VAST potential. But the assumption that China is the next Hegemonic superpower seems lazy to me. Remember they have a population an order of magnitude larger than our own, but have only just passed the UK in total size of the economy (with a little help from our ex-chancellor nobbling ours). They may be catching up fast, but there is still a LONG way to go. Both economically and militarily, China is still dwarfed by the USA."

Q: "What is the great lost sequel?" — @raygun_factory of Sam Rockwell
A: Buckaroo Banzai Against the World Crime League.
With the short answer out of the way, here is the longer one. If you've seen The Adventures of Buck Banzai Across the 8th Dimension then you know what you're missing. The first of, I'm sure many, planned films of the like was a heady science fiction plot in a comic book world starring the coolest rock and roller you might ever meet against ridiculous aliens. Suffice to say it was too weird to survive, even in the 80's. Yes, EVEN the 1980s.
Oh, and Jeff Goldblum plays a cowboy, while still being unquestionably at his Goldblumiest.
As the titular character, Peter "Robocop" Weller rocks oh so hard. And not just on a guitar. Though he also does that. He's the smartest, coolest, bravest dude in the room with parts Doc Savage, Indiana Jones, that guy from Duran Duran, and Doctor Emmit Brown all rolled into the 80's version of a pulp hero. Meaning his band of motley sidekicks, ala Doc Savage, is in fact a kick-ass rock band. And speaking of Doc Brown, Buckaroo invents a DeLorian looking dimension spanning supercar a good YEAR before Brown did so and forced Marty into test-driving the sucker 30 years in the past.
And we haven't even started talking about John Lithgow's character and we really SHOULD talk about it, because honestly look at this. Look at this!
Which does not begin to describe this movie mind you. Or the highly comedic, incredibly meta aspects of the film. Director W.D. Richter had a strong vision, and he brought it to the studios at the perfect time that they would bankroll such a crazy plan, and seemingly not ask a lot of questions. You can see the money at play, on the film, and cheer at the entertaining audacity. Unsurprisingly, this weird-ass movie (see above image) was NOT a hit, not only that but it is only because of the continued cult interest, and the fact that those who starred in it went on to make bigger movies, that we're even talking about it now in this sense.
That doesn't take away form the fact that Buckaroo Banzai Against the World Crime League is not the single biggest lost sequel. Usually when you call your shots like that, at the START of the end credits, it's hard to miss. Hell, Richter and his fellow filmmakers are still trying to make the sequel happen. Except maybe it's better that it's lost, that such a wild and crazy film added such a strange tough to end things off, is almost perfect. Sure, a world in which Lithgow and Lloyd play some bad-ass bad guys the World Crime League would TOTALLY work… but it doesn't have to.
Just play that end credit music, go for a walk and remember one thing.

MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney returned Monday night to the state where he launched his bid, telling supporters in New Hampshire during his final campaign rally that he needs their votes again.
MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney returned Monday night to the state where he launched his bid, telling supporters in New Hampshire during his final campaign rally that he needs their votes again.
"It's all your votes and your work right here in New Hampshire that will help me become the next president of the United States," Romney told a thunderous capacity crowd at the Verizon Wireless Arena, which holds about 10,000 people. "We thank you and we ask you to stay in it all the way to the victory tomorrow night."
Romney, who won the New Hampshire primary, assailed President Barack Obama's economic policies amid the recession — "One in six of us is poor," he said — and promised to bring change that he asserted Obama had only talked about.
"Talk is cheap, but a record is real," Romney said.
The former Massachusetts governor spoke after Kid Rock stood atop a piano to sing the campaign song "Born Free" as red lasers lit the arena.
The New Hampshire rally was expected to be the Romney campaign's last hurrah, capping a day that was a sprint through Florida, Virginia, Ohio and then New Hampshire. But on Monday afternoon, Romney's team announced a last-minute Election Day push that will take him to Cleveland and Pittsburgh for get-out-the-vote efforts before he returns to Boston to await the outcome.
"Look, we have one job left, and that's to make sure that on Election Day, we make certain that everybody that's qualified to vote gets out to vote," Romney told the thousands gathered inside an airplane hangar in Sanford, Fla., at the first of his five campaign rallies Monday.
Romney and running mate Paul Ryan will both make that last pitch in Cleveland on Tuesday morning. Romney then heads to Pittsburgh in the afternoon.
Ohio is critical battleground that Romney has visited again and again — but one where polls show a race with Obama that's stubbornly close. Romney all but ignored Pennsylvania until the final week of the campaign, as Republicans poured millions onto previously empty airwaves in a bid to expand the map.
The Election Day campaign events mimic Obama, who campaigned in Indiana on Election Day in 2008. He ultimately won the state, which typically backed Republicans for president. A spokeswoman said Obama would not campaign Tuesday, but would remain in Chicago and reach out to swing-state voters through a series of television and radio interviews.
But while Indiana's 11 electoral college votes were a nice addition to Obama's 365-vote Electoral College landslide, Romney has been banking on Ohio to carry him over the finish line in what's been a fluid but close-fought contest. Without Ohio, Romney has to win nearly every other battleground state to defeat Obama. Adding Pennsylvania would change the calculus, but Democrats say they remain confident they'll win a state that's backed their party's presidential candidates since 1988.
"Tomorrow, we begin a new tomorrow," Romney said in Florida, his voice a bit hoarse as he spoke using a teleprompter to prevent mistakes borne of weariness. By the time he landed in New Hampshire, Romney had covered more than 15,000 miles in four days. Monday's five rallies are the most Romney has held in a single day during the general election campaign.
All told, he's been running for president for nearly six years.
If Romney wins, he would become the nation's 45th president, and spend the fall and winter preparing to move into the White House and take over the executive branch of the government. There would be Cabinet secretaries to select, news conferences to hold, intelligence briefings to attend. The pack of cameras that has surrounded Romney almost daily since he announced would still greet him nearly every morning.
"Forty-five! Forty-five!" chanted several people in the Florida audience.
But if he loses, all the trappings of the campaign — his charter airplane, the entourage of besuited Secret Service agents, the siren-filled motorcades down highways closed just for him — will disappear.
Supporters seem to know they're watching history. On the rope line after his Florida event, a man presented Romney with a bag of pins from his father George Romney's 1968 bid for president.
Romney is already further along; his father lost the Republican nomination, and Richard Nixon went on to be elected president.
The son hopes for a different outcome. "I need your vote," Romney said. "Walk with me. Walk with me together."

Understanding the XAML Syntax - Day 2 - Part 9
XAML is a language that allows you to declare new instances of classes and set their properties using an XAML (tag-like) syntax. While it has utility beyond Silverlight applications, XAML is used by Silverlight to define objects and properties that are displayed on screen. This video examines the default XAML that is created by adding a new project or Silverlight file. Additionally, it covers the XAML that is automatically created by dragging and dropping instances of Silverlight controls from the Toolbox to the XAML designer surface.

The Discussion
Can you point me in the direction of a similar series for Express Blend?
@Deno: we really don't have beginner series for blend itself, there are lots of good tutorials out there however. Are there key topics you're looking for help on?
I was looking for something geared toward the phone design/layout/transition/navigation aspect more like a getting started with Expression Blend for WinPhone7. I watched a few of the videos at https://expression.microsoft.com/en-us/cc197141.aspx and they are alright but the only item on Phone7 is a "read all about it" which talks about the Icons. The Windows Phone 7 Development for Absolute Beginners is really what I was looking for/wanting for Expression Blend. Is there a better place that you know of?
Bob did a great job, maybe someone can take the finished application (from day 4) and customize it with Expression Blend and make some nice design/transition to show how to extend the basic framework into a finished fully feature application. This could show how the designer & developer integration works and how the whole process can be completed with both VS and EB – just an idea.

Four-run sixth gives A's victory in Colon's return
HOUSTON -- Fresh off a 50-game suspension, Bartolo Colon channeled his old self and threw his usual array of strikes on Saturday.
There were 58 to be exact, and one happened to land in the left-field stands and bring in three runs, threatening to spoil the veteran's return to the game. Colon's teammates wouldn't allow it, though, erasing a two-run deficit with a four-run sixth to walk away with their fourth straight win, a 6-3 decision over the host Astros.
Houston has lost just as many in a row, with the A's on the verge of potentially extending their new division rivals' losing streak to five in Sunday's matinee finale.
Oakland's hitters stayed out of the spotlight in the early going of the contest, putting Colon front and center in his first regular-season action since last August, when he was disciplined for testing positive for testosterone. Naturally, he kept them busy on defense.
"I tell you, he works really quick, throws a lot of strikes and keeps you in the game," said shortstop Jed Lowrie, who helped out his new teammate with three hits. "What else can you ask for?"
Colon breezed through the first three innings, facing one over the minimum while utilizing just 33 pitches before running into trouble with two outs in a 26-pitch fourth frame. Colon offered up four consecutive hits to the Astros, including a three-run homer from Jason Castro.
The long ball temporarily wiped away a lead gained by the A's in the top half of the inning, when Coco Crisp picked up his second home run in as many days.
Houston remained on top for all of one inning, though, as the A's batted around for the second time in the series in the sixth, starting with Lowrie, who collected a leadoff homer off starter Bud Norris. Norris was pushed to 122 pitches before his departure with two outs, after Josh Donaldson poked the last one he tossed through the right side of the infield, bringing in the tying run.
"Josh's at-bat is the best at-bat of the game," A's manager Bob Melvin said. "He gets behind and then works it to 3-2 and hits a slider, which ends up being a huge hit. Good starters, there are a couple of different ways to beat them. You try to get them early or you try to get their pitch counts up and get them when they're vulnerable."
The Astros then elected to bring in lefty Wesley Wright to face the right handed-hitting Derek Norris, who responded with an RBI base hit of his own to put the A's ahead, 4-3. Eric Sogard did the same, extending Oakland's lead to two.
Colon was done after six strong innings of work, giving up three runs on eight hits with no walks and two strikeouts while throwing just 83 pitches. The veteran made it look easy despite having not seen a minute of video of Houston's hitters.
He wasn't even able to watch Friday night's game at the team hotel, while still being restricted from the stadium as part of his suspension, since it wasn't available on any of the local channels. So he simply threw what Norris called.
"That's the only thing I need," Colon said, smiling, through translator Ariel Prieto.
Seth Smith was responsible for the A's third solo homer of the night, a leadoff shot to left field in the eighth off southpaw Dallas Keuchel, upping Oakland's home run total to nine on the season. Only the Blue Jays, with 11, have more in the American League.
Yoenis Cespedes owns two of those homers, but he also has just one other hit spanning a total of 23 at-bats for a .130 average. He has nine strikeouts, after whiffing three times on Saturday, and in his last at-bat he experienced left elbow pain while swinging through a pitch.
After the game, Cespedes said he was fine and explained that, mechanically, he's slightly out of whack at the moment. But he assured reporters while walking away, "I'm going to get you a lot of home runs this year."
In the meantime, hitters around him, notably Lowrie, have helped pick up the slack. The shortstop notched his second three-hit day of the season on Saturday, bringing his average to .476.
"We haven't seen anything different since the first day of Spring Training, really," Melvin said. "He's swung the bat well from both sides of the plate. He's really settled in that No. 2 hole, where you know you're going to get your matchup, he can pull the ball in the hole when he has to, has some power. He's done a great job."
"I like hitting there a lot," Lowrie said. "I think it really suits my game well. I'm at my best when I'm focused on getting on base and setting the table.
"I'm confident with my swing right now, I'm working myself into good hitters' counts, and even when I get behind, I'm not trying to do too much."
Grant Balfour tossed a scoreless ninth inning to secure his first save of the season.

A lot of people visited the Graco stand, and we received good feedback from our distributors as well as from Paint visitors. Besides presenting and demonstrating our Graco Products, visitors were also able to win their own handheld EasyMax WP II™, by completing a questionnaire on the iPad with an online contest form.
In short, the Paint – Finishing & Facade Fair was a big success for Graco!
We already look forward to our next participation in Munich in 2016.

I show a UIPickerView with a list of options:
- Vegetables,
- Fruits,
- Greetings,
- Shopping
When selecting any of the above options, will show another UIPickerView with options like (if we have selected greetings):
- Hi,
- Hello,
- Good morning.
When selecting any of that, will show another picker with options like:
- Hi dear,
- Hi, how are you,
- Hi, how are you doing
Now when selecting any of that, needs to be placed on a text view. The functionality is supposed to behave like templates to choose from.
I feel there is something odd in this, but cannot pinpoint it. Is there a better pattern?

May 31, 2012
Gary Jenkins, Chief of Police
Pullman Police Department
(509) 334-0802
PULLMAN – The Commercial Mobile Alert System (CMAS) is the system interface to the Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) service that wireless carriers are rolling out across the nation in 2012. CMAS is a partnership between FEMA, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and wireless carriers, to enhance public safety.
CMAS allows public safety authorities to send geographically targeted, text-like Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEAs) to the public. WEAs will relay Presidential, AMBER, and Imminent Threat alerts to mobile phones using cell broadcast technology that will not get backlogged during times of emergency when wireless voice and data services are highly congested. CMAS/WEA complements the existing Emergency Alert System (EAS) which sends warnings to television and radio via broadcast, cable, satellite, and landline communications pathways. The public should check with their cellular carriers to see if WEA alerts are available in their area.
WEAs will look like a text message, and will automatically appear on the mobile device screen showing the type and time of alert along with any action that should be taken. The message will be no more than 90 characters, and will have a unique tone and vibration, indicating a WEA has been received. If an alert is received, citizens should follow the instructions and seek additional information from radio, television, NOAA Weather Radio, and other official sources for emergency information. Citizens should only call 911 in a life threatening situation.
Only authorized federal, state, local, tribal or territorial officials can send WEA alerts to the public. As with all new cellular services, it will take time for upgrades in infrastructure, coverage, and handset technology to allow WEA alerts to reach all cellular customers. Additional information about CMAS is available on FEMA's website at www.fema.gov.

Every Tuesday and Thursday, both my Kindergartener and my Preschooler are at school for about four and a half hours, and so I often escape away to a coffee shop (if you follow The Covenant Diet on instagram then you're used to seeing my "I'm working" pics as proof for my husband that I am, indeed, working and not out shopping all day)!
This past Tuesday, I went to La Madeleine to work (they have a great patio… with a plug for my laptop) even though I just felt like my soul was dry as a bone. I tried to work for, like two hours, with pretty much no result. It was like everything that was coming out of me was… blah.
So, after a ginormous group of very loud, very talkative women came in and set up shop right next to me (despite the fact that there were, like, fifteen other tables to sit at), I decided to pack it up and go home and do chores so that I'd at least be doing SOMETHING productive.
And on the way home, I got behind the slowest Walmart truck in all of creation and THEN got behind the slowest lawn mower truck in the world. I kept thinking… something is going on. Like, I feel like there is some kind of spiritual battle going on right now. Like, if my life was really like the book This Present Darkness and I could see the spiritual realm then I would see demons and angels battling it out all around me… for me.
So I took it slow going home, went in and thought "I'm gonna go right back to my patio and just chill and see what God wants to say."
Well, my husband was sitting right inside the front door when I came home. Honestly, I wanted to just blow right by him… I was afraid that he and I would talk and I would miss out on what God wanted to say. But he needed to talk, and so I was deterred from my plan.
And THANK GOODNESS because He'd been having some kind of major revival on his own while I was gone and he just started to pour out his soul to me… which basically caused me to have some kind of major revival… by association! When the joy of the Lord is around you, it's just… awesome, no matter who He brought His word to in the first place.
The whole thing was just a reminder for me… that, it's not always about ME.
It's not always about MY spiritual walk.
MY weight loss.
MY pants size.
MY fears. hopes. dreams.
Sometimes God is at work and that work is not all about me.
And honestly, that is just downright kind of refreshing.

Alex Garland, the novelist and screenwriter best known for his collaborations with director Danny Boyle, is working on a remake of the 1976 Farrah Fawcett classic, "Logan's Run."
Garland first made a name for himself with his screenplay for "The Beach," which was adapted from his own novel, directed by Boyle and starring Leonard DiCaprio. His next, and best, script was for "28 Days Later," Boyle's fantastic post-apocalyptic zombie film starring Cillian Murphy.
Now Garland will tackle adapting William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson's 1967 novel, Logan's Run," according to Heat Vision. It's the story of a dystopian future where everyone must submit to execution upon turning 30, in an effort to control global population. Those who refuse are hunted down by "Sandmen." But one Sandman, Logan 5 (Michael York), decides to make a run for it.
Watch the trailer for the original and you'll understand why some are preferring to call this project an adaptation of the novel rather than a remake of the film. The 1977-78 TV series starring Gregory Harrison was no great shakes either.
On board to direct is Carl Erik Rinsch, who made a name for himself earlier this year with his incredible Phillips Electronics commercial "The Gift," with a gorgeous look and a sense of narrative so strong it's being adapted into a feature-length film.
Garland's also adapted Kazuo Ishiguro's novel "Never Let Me Go," another story about a world in which premature death is mandated, which stars Carey Mulligan, Keira Knightley and Andrew Garfield, and was directed by Mark Romanek. The first trailer was released yesterday, and it is stunning.

The Senate has confirmed Samuel Alito by a vote of 58-42. Four Democrats (Byrd, Conrad, Johnson, and Ben Nelson) joined 54 Republicans (all but Chafee). The margin exceeded my low expectations by a few votes due, I think, to the quality of Alito's performance before the committee and the desperate performance of the committee Dems.
This was basically a straight party line vote — 90 percent of the Democrats voted no. The vote changes the "rules" for confirming Supreme Court Justices. Under the Alito rule, Senators will vote against highly qualified nominee for no reason other than that they expect the nominee to rule contrary to their preference on major issues. Under the Alito rule, the president's party, in effect, must control the Senate in order for the president to have top-notch nominees of his choice confirmed. When the the president's party doesn't control the Senate, only compromise nominees acceptable to both parties can expect to be confirmed.
It was objectionable for the Democrats to have changed an understanding of the Senate's "advise and consent" role that has worked reasonably well for 200 years, or so. The new approach will probably produce more mediocre Justices, selected not for their intellect, fairness, or other judging skills, but because they haven't offended anyone. But the process is not irrational, and in some ways it makes more sense than its predecessor in a world where the Court exercises as much power as it now does. In any case, the important thing is to have one set of confirmation rules that applies to both parties. Thanks to the Dems, we now have a new set.

LONGMONT — Longmont police on Friday identified the officer who shot a gunman in an exchange of gunfire early Wednesday morning as Officer Brent Cairns.
Cairns works on patrol during the department's Watch III overnight shift.
He is on paid administrative leave while a multi-agency team investigates the early morning shooting. The leave is standard while the "shoot team" works to determine whether all department policies and laws were followed.
According to police reports, Cairns stopped Jonathan Shank's Subaru Impreza after spotting it traveling east along Ken Pratt Boulevard at 2:12 a.m. Wednesday without headlights. Shank pulled over and stopped in the parking lot of Best Buy at the Harvest Junction shopping area and, police reported, got out of his car and immediately opened fire on Cairns with a Bushmaster AR-15 rifle. Cairns was able to get out of his car and keep the vehicle between himself and Shank as he returned fire with his 9 mm Glock 17, police reported. Cairns was not hit, but he struck Shank at least three times.
Cairns, 36, has worked for the Longmont Police Department for four years and worked for the Denver Sheriff's Office for four years before that.
He won a Medal of Valor in 2010 for working with other officers in an officer-involved shooting in August 2009 that left the suspect dead. The suspect had led police on a 20-minute chase and then brandished a gun, according to reports. Cairns was not among the officers who fired in that case.
In 2011, he won a Longmont Public Safety Award in the lifesaving category. He and two other police officers were credited with keeping a suicidal woman from jumping off the highest point of the Ken Pratt overpass on April 23, 2010. His record also includes eight letters of commendation.
Longmont Police Cmdr. Jeff Satur declined to release a photo of Cairns.
"I do have a concern just from an officer-safety standpoint," Satur said.
Satur said investigators are working on an arrest warrant for Shank, who remains at Denver Health under 24-hour guard. Police contracted a private security company to keep watch over Shank at a cost of about $30 per hour, he said. Satur said the warrant affidavit will likely be presented to the Boulder County district attorney for consideration next week.
The shoot team report is likely to be presented to Longmont Public Safety Chief Mike Butler and Boulder County District Attorney Stan Garnett next week.
Satur said investigators are piecing together Shank's motive, but he cannot release information about it yet. Shank has a relatively minor criminal record, which includes a DUI, driving under revocation and minor in possession tickets and other minor traffic infractions.

The Safe Kiteboarding Guidelines were first prepared over five years ago and have been through a couple of dozen revisions in that time. With the inception of flat kites some things have changed. I have attempted to incorporate ideas related to some of those changes into this draft.
These guidelines have evolved over six years through lessons learned from hundreds of kiting accidents and incidents worldwide. As a result they are long and fairly detailed. People sometimes wonder why, then again, maybe they haven't encountered the accidents that prompted the precautions listed. They may shrink somewhat through editing over time. Some of the text is ponderous given recent additions, this too shall pass. Constructive input is welcome.
I have tried to put together a set of draft guidelines that include some consideration of both traditional C kites as well as flat kites. The duality has added to the number of words and may have cost some clarity as well. Sorry for that.
As far as shortening or "dumbing down" the guidelines, that presents a problem. Major factors contributing to almost 70 fatalities and hundreds of accidents and incidents were considered in the preparation of the guidelines. New gear creates new precautions. I don't view it as being responsible to chop out content that might result in someone avoiding injury someday. Some simple editorial streamlining can and will be done however. As it is more content could be added beyond what appears here. You have to read and think about this but that's life.
Constructive input is welcome.

The following ideas are presented to try to improve kiteboarder and bystander safety, to reduce complaints and attempt to preserve our access to ride. These ideas have been taken from the analysis of hundreds of accidents that have been reported worldwide over many years. Often accidents might have been avoided if more knowledge and care were used. Kiteboarding can be hazardous to the rider and to bystanders, particularly if practiced without adequate training, safety gear, knowledge and caution. NOTE: Riders must accept that even if these guidelines are followed, that accidents, injury and even death may occur in kiteboarding. Kites can exert very substantial force with little to no warning with sudden gusts, improper line attachment, mishandling, tangling, malfunction, etc., resulting in dragging and/or lofting, frequently with insufficient time to effectively react. Riders have been lofted in excess of 1700 ft. downwind and 300 ft. high in strong wind gusts. And, NO "you may not always be able to just let go or kill the power of the kite,â€Â

FARMINGTON — Jeffrey H. Taylor & Associates has completed their initial review of the Town's Master Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Regulations and Site Plan Review Regulations.
Steve Whitman of Taylor & Associates will now meet with Farmington Planning Board on Tuesday, Nov. 13, at 7:30 p.m. to discuss their findings and to make recommendations for regulatory changes. The meeting will be in the Selectmen's Chambers at the Municipal Offices Building, 356 Main St. and the public is encouraged to attend.
In July New Hampshire Housing Finance Authority announced that Farmington was one of 22 communities across the state that would be awarded a Community Planning Grant — in the town's case, $10,000.
The CPG program was created by NHHFA, in collaboration with a consortium of public agencies and state-wide institutions, to help New Hampshire cities and towns improve their land use regulations and create more resilient local economies. Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Based on the recommendations of an advisory committee, NHHFA awarded 22 grants to municipalities totaling over $550,000 in this funding round. These awards were made on a competitive basis and awardees were selected from 32 applications seeking nearly $830,000 in funding, collectively.
Farmington's $10,000 grant, in layman's terms, is being used to explore what needs to be done to attract businesses into the Route 11 corridor and what steps must be taken to revitalize the downtown area.
In more formal language, "the town will conduct a regulatory review to identify conflicts between land use regulations and the Master Plan, and to identify any potential impediments to the town's goals for economic development along Route 11 and the revitalization of the downtown district. The town hopes to develop a regulatory environment that will support quality economic development to create new employment opportunities to residents of the town and the region and to identify regulatory incentives to encourage reinvestment in and the revitalization of the downtown business district."
The intent of Farmington's regulatory review is four-fold:
To identify and correct conflicts between Master Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Regulations, Site Plan Review Regulations;
To identify regulatory impediments to the revitalization of downtown and quality commercial and /or industrial development along Route 11;
To obtain recommendations for regulatory changes necessary to better implement the goals and strategies identified in the Master Plan; and
To obtain recommendations regarding regulatory changes/incentives to support the revitalization of downtown, encourage quality commercial/industrial development of Route 11.
Once the regulatory review is complete and recommendations have been reviewed and accepted by the Planning Board, the town of Farmington will then prepare an application for funding through Round 2 of the CPG for assistance in preparing the recommended regulatory revisions/amendments for possible adoption, including preparation of an outreach plan to engage marginalized and/or disadvantaged populations.
Revitalization of the downtown and job creation along the Route 11 corridor have been high priorities of the community for a number of years. Municipal efforts to assist in achieving these goals have had limited success. The consultant was asked to identify any regulatory impediments to these revitalization and economic development efforts and to recommend regulatory actions to support these efforts.
Speaking this week, Planning Board Chair Paul Parker said, "One goal is to make Farmington's regulations more inviting while still protecting the environment."
He said invitations had gone out, regarding the Nov. 13 meeting, to Farmington Economic Development Committee and the Downtown Business Committee.
Parker said the Planning Board is very open to hearing other points of view.
For more information contact Kathy Menici Director of Planning and Community Development at 755-2774 or email@example.com.

I have to admit I disagree a bit in your analysis. When I finished the book like you I was content.
Then I started thinking who was andrhol and how we he mentioned as the main character in the dark tower. We barely even know him. Logain got a secondary role.
Did we need a view point from every person who ever was in the book?
Moiraine, did not get utilized enough at all, despite how big of a character she came by being absent.
How about Fain? He was that third wheel that has always been there in the back, as a power. Yet his role in the book was laughable.
Perrin fight was awesome, yet it seemed to take up way to much of the book.
Moghedien being captured in the end like that, the spider? Really how was the not hiding her ability to channel or sensed the other woman.
In hindsight, I think the book was maybe 3/5 stars.

I was severely disappointed by the book. The pacing as your said was fine.
The utilisation of characters were not.
Seriously. Moiraine and Nynaeve spent the last battle clinging to a couple of rocks? I'm sure I speak for all (even those who hate Nynaeve) that we had all come to expect great things from her.
The horse. Dying from an arrow in the flank. Are you kidding me?
Siuan - no death scene.
And what happened to Egwene was just wrong. It felt contrived, like.. oh I need some major character to off, so oh well, let's go with her coz she's the most plausible.
The use of the one power was.. kiddy. The only person with some cool bits to show was Androl, and WHO WAS HE AGAIN???
In Jordan's versions, the Shadow was always sinisterly evil. Malignant, malicious. Causing pain for no other reason than the pleasure of it. Its evil was sick and tortured and demented.
Saunderson's evil is MEHHHHHH. It's the kiddy version. It's like, ohhh you're on the other side and you've got trollocs eating humans, therefore you're evil and you speak in a dark booming voice in CAPS.

A fitting end to the Wheel of Time. The characters shine throughout the series, most ends tied with the future left to the reader's imagination. There are parts to make you cry and parts to make you laugh. The Last Battle is upon us and the Dragon reborn goes to Shayol Ghul to battle the Dark One. There was many battle scenes and they show Jordan's military genius with beautifully written. The epilogue except for some parts has been wholly written by RJ before his death.

After reading the wheel of time to book 10 over 4 times and then finally reading the last books I Have to say I will never read the story again. The last books by Brandon Sanderson have been a complete let down, his writing is weak, his thought process is just not on Jordan's Level, his attention to detail pathetic. His Characterization thing. The last book Memory of Light was horrible! Great Chess Battle but everything else and it's out comes pathetic. It really misses to much it's not Lord of Chaos! I am done with the Wheel of Time.
Which is Sad I loved Min and Rand.

Walmart shoppers had to abandon their carts inside while the retail store was forced to evacuate Wednesday afternoon.
Burlington Fire Department�s Battalion Chief Nim Harris said firefighters were dispatched to the Garden Road store around 1:15 p.m. after a natural gas leak occurred in the back of the building.
Employees got a roughly 45-minute break� out in freezing temperatures, nonetheless � while they waited for fire officials and Piedmont Natural Gas workers to turn off gas to the structure and ventilate the building.
Harris said an employee operating a forklift near the loading dock bumped a gas line that went to a heater, causing a leak.
�The rotten-egg odor from natural gas did make its way into the store, but there wasn�t enough gas to create a problem,� Harris said.
Kyle Gordon, the store�s manager, said the evacuation was a �safety precaution,� and after an announcement was made that shoppers had to clear the building, employees conducted a sweep to ensure everyone was out safely.
Harris said the store had already begun evacuating by the time fire officials arrived. He said firefighters used ventilation fans and opened doors to remove the gas, though it was mainly concentrated in the back load-in area.
�The odor did make its way into the retail portion of the store, however we never detected any significant levels of gas inside,� Harris said. �It did not register on our gas meters in the retail area. The only high level of gas was in the loading dock area.�
One Walmart employee said there �weren�t that many people in the store� at the time, but that people appeared to leave their merchandise behind without any issues.
Harris said the fire department cleared the call at 2:30 p.m., and no medical issues were reported.

John Williams School No. 5 began implementing Step Up to Writing Fourth Edition school-wide to meet rigorous writing standards and help every student, at every skill level, learn to write thoughtful and organized compositions. Teacher Kelli Monique Briggs teaches her middle school students how to form effective arguments by providing writing assignments that are relevant to their daily lives and that prepare them for writing in high school and beyond.
"When our kids were taking the state exams or any type of essay, they would tense up and get nervous. Now, they know to organize it [their writing]."
—Kelli Monique Briggs, Teacher, John Williams School No. 5, Rochester, NY
Corona-Norco Unified School District began implementing Step Up to Writing district-wide 10 years ago to to improve student writing and meet state standards. As a result, students have made gains on the California State Test, with writing being one of CNUSD students' strongest areas.
"We really saw a great development of the writing process, which is so vague if you don't have a writing system. To have one district-wide, from primary all the way up to high school, is so strong for our district."
—Beth Feaster, Principal, Temescal Valley Elementary School, Corona-Norco Unified School District

Museum2you on the road
Museum2you programs and events across NSW are paving the way to a healthier planet.
The Museum2you boxes have hit the road running since the official opening of the program in May 2012. In the last few months, boxes have visited Orange, Blue Mountains, Hunter's Hill, Fairfield, Albury, Hurstville Mosman, Lake Macquarie and Wyong and will be on their way to Canterbury, Gosford, Narrabri and Wagga Wagga (just to name a few).
Host organisations have been busy putting on events in their communities. In Hunter's Hill, over 20,000 people attended the Moocooboola Festival where staff at the Museum2you exhibition taught people about climate change and what actions they can take to help reduce their impact on the planet.
The Hurstville City Museum & Gallery organised a plethora of activities ranging from an official Museum2you exhibition opening, a lunchtime sustainability talk by council staff, kids crafts using recycled materials, a workshop to learn how to identify bugs and test water quality, a bus tour of sites in the local area that make an important contribution to the sustainability of the LGA and an environmental awareness poster competition for kids.
With all this exciting stuff going on around NSW, the message is getting out — the climate is changing, life on Earth is affected and we all need to do something about it.

text: The Cotton Patch – Where Innovation and Teamwork Fuel Growth It's amazing what can happen when you combine a great idea, commitment to community, love of agriculture, fresh air, good earth, and energized volunteers. In the Cotton and Tobacco Programs, a part of USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service, we found this to be the perfect combination to cultivate our own People's Garden – the Cotton Patch. The People's Garden initiative brings USDA employees and more than 700 local and national organizations together to create community and school gardens inspiring locally-led solutions to some of the challenges facing our country – from hunger to the environment. Here in Memphis, creating the Cotton Patch was a collaborative series of fortunate events that began when employees from our local office requested to overhaul the facility's landscaping and create our own People's Garden.

Overview: Corner Wall Beading
Traditional metal corner drywall bead is tedious and time-consuming to install, and if you don't cover metal corner with tape, it's likely to develop cracks along the edges. Luckily there's an alternative that's simpler to install that metal corner and won't crack. If you're an old-school carpenter like me, you've probably dismissed paper-faced drywall corner bead as an inferior DIY product, but trust me, once you try it, you'll never go back.
You'll find paper-faced drywall corner bead alongside standard metal corners in home centers and drywall supply stores. It costs a little more, about $3 for an 8-ft. length vs. $2 for the metal bead. But the wall beading is worth every penny.
Pros use a special hopper to apply joint compound to the corner bead and an expensive rolling tool to embed the bead, but you can get the same benefits using a 3-in. stiff putty knife, a 5- or 6-in. flexible putty knife and a spray bottle filled with water. Here's how to install paper-faced corner bead, including a few tips to simplify the job and avoid problems.
Step 1: Cut the drywall paper beading with tin snips
Cutting to length
If you need to cut pieces to length, simply hold the wall beading in place, mark the cut, and cut the bead with tin snips. Where pieces run to the floor, cut them about 1/2 in. short. The baseboard will cover the gap.
Step 2: Mud the corner
Spread a thick layer of all-purpose joint compound on both sides of the corner and smooth it off with a putty knife. Avoid lightweight joint compound because it doesn't adhere as well to the corner bead. Strive for an even, consistent layer of joint compound about 1/8 in. thick. Don't leave any thin or dry spots.
Step 3: Mist the wall beading
Damp drywall paper bonds better
Wetting the paper covering on the corner bead helps create a better bond and better adhesion and cuts down on wrinkles. Do this by spritzing the corner wall beading before you stick it to the wall. You don't have to soak the corner bead; just dampen it a bit.
Step 4: Position the drywall paper bead
Push into place
Press the dampened corner bead into the joint compound with your fingers. Run your fingers up and down while pressing evenly on both sides to embed and center the corner bead.
Step 5: Embed the tape
First pass
After positioning the wall beading, wipe and smooth off excess joint compound with a 5- or 6-in. putty knife. Press the edge of the tape with the knife blade to ensure a tight bond with the drywall.
Step 6: Use staples to align corners
Fastening tip
Beads that intersect at corners have to align perfectly where they meet. But without nails to hold them in place, the beads can slide out of position. The solution is to slide the corner bead into alignment with the adjoining bead and hold it in place with a few staples.
Step 7: Check the corner with your blade
Leave a void for compound
A perfectly positioned corner bead protrudes slightly at the corner to allow a void for joint compound. After you place the drywall paper bead, check for a void by setting your 6-in. putty knife against the corner to make sure there's a space under it. Check both sides in several places along the length of the corner. Slide the corner in or out to make adjustments. Use staples to hold the corner in place if it won't stay put.
Step 8: Scrape away excess mud before it hardens
Don't gouge dry corners
Scraping dried joint compound from the corner can damage the paper tape. Remove excess joint compound before it hardens. Carefully slide a putty knife along the outside edge to knock off excess joint compound.
Step 9: Finish up with two more coats of joint compound
Final passes
After the embedding coat of mud is dry, apply another coat of joint compound and smooth it. Do a final coat after the second coat dries. Sand the corner with 150-grit drywall sandpaper mounted on a drywall sander. Sand carefully and only enough to blend the joint compound into the drywall and remove high spots. If you sand too much, you'll damage the paper face on the corner wall beading. If you do sand through the joint compound and create a fuzzy area, cover it with a thin layer of joint compound and resand when it dries.

In six years on the coaching staff of the Gill St. Bernard's School girls basketball team, Aaron Gratch already has shown himself to be up for a challenge. He is about to be put to the test again.
Gratch, 31, is leaving his post at the helm of the 2012 Somerset County Tournament champions and NJSIAA Tournament of Champions runner-up to make the big jump to assistant coach for the Colgate University women's basketball team. Pending expected formalities, he is expected to begin Aug. 20.
"There are only like 1,100 Division I jobs in the country," Gratch said. "I would've liked to stay a couple more years, but my goal was always to get to this level of coaching. This opportunity was just too good to pass up."
After four years as an assistant, Gratch, the 2012 Courier News Girls Basketball Coach of the Year, replaced Mergin Sina and totaled a 53-11 record. He brought the program to an unprecedented level last season, winning a first state title before falling just short in the T of C final against Manasquan.
"I'm going to miss the kids," said Gratch, whose situation unfolded within the past week. "It was great to be there. I'll remember the tradition we built out of nothing and being able to built Gill on the (basketball) map."
Gratch forged a strong relationship with Colgate second-year head coach Nicci Hays Fort when she was recruiting former Gill star Daisha Simmons while working as an associate head coach at DePaul. Simmons is one of two major-conference players to emerge from the program in the last three years.
"She is a very good coach and I can't wait to see what I can learn from her," Gratch said of Hays Fort. "The school is fantastic. If you look at Gill and Colgate, you're coaching the same kind of kids. The kids are going to be held to very high academic standards just like Gill. The school is in a remote area just like Gill. And it's a beautiful campus just like Gill."
While the Knights again are expected to be a title favorite, Sina, who coaches the boys team, was not surprised to see his protégé move on so quickly.
"He really works at his job," Sina said. "He prepares the kids well. He does everything that a college coach would do at the next level. He's done that for the last few years. I think his transition is going to be an easy one. He knows the game and he is passionate about this."

Boy says Boynton Beach police officer assaulted him 'for no reason'
Video shows officer kick teen's feet, put him in choke hold
BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. – A 13-year-old boy said he was put in a choke hold and kicked in the legs by a Boynton Beach police officer "for no reason."
Kevens Jean-Baptiste said he was handcuffed and taken off a school bus last week after he and another boy opened windows against the driver's orders.
One day earlier, students threw eggs from the bus, but Kevens said he wasn't being unruly.
"The girl sprayed perfume and I got asthma," he said. "I was coughing and I tried to turn on the AC. He said no, so I rolled down my window."
Police were called after the boys disobeyed the driver.
That's when cellphone video apparently shows the officer putting Kevens in a choke hold and kicking the boy's legs, causing him to fall on his back to the ground.
Boynton Beach police said the officer, who has not been identified, has been placed on administrative duty after the video surfaced on the Internet.
"We are concerned as to the initial appearance of the video, and despite the fact that we have received no formal complaints at this time, we are committed to reviewing the situation in its entirety and taking whatever action is deemed most appropriate at the conclusion of our investigation," Boynton Beach police spokeswoman Stephanie Slater said.
Kevens said he feels "kind of better." His family is expected to file a formal complaint.

Colorado Voices
The so-called "education finance reform" proposal to be put on the next election ballot by the Colorado General Assembly is a familiar bait-and-switch. Colorado State Treasurer Walker Stapleton, in an article published in the Colorado Springs Gazette on May 30, says as much, though in more delicate language. The Gazette's editorial board reiterated that conclusion, again, more delicately.
In the 30 years I have had the pleasure of living in our beautiful state, I have seen this tactic by legislators any time they want to skim money from taxpayers to pay for something they know has not a snowball's chance in hell of passing if they tell us where the money is really going. This is the reason TABOR passed, it is the reason legislators hate TABOR, and it is the reason why taxpayers must never allow TABOR to be subverted.
The fact is, this proposed billion-dollar tax increase has nothing to do with better education opportunities or outcomes "for the children." It is all about bailing out a bankrupt and unsustainable Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA). PERA is $20 billion in debt. The PERA management claims its portfolio will cover the debt. No one with any knowledge of economics agrees.
