You can try it out at http://how-far-away-is-the-sea.appspot.com/. It works well on phones too, so you can use it when you are out and about.
How does it work?I used the dataset of land polygons from Natural Earth, which as the name suggests covers the whole world. The scale is 1:10 million, so inevitably there is some inaccuracy near the coast, particularly where it's wiggly.
The app uses your current location (or a location you selected by clicking on the map) and computes the closest point in the set of land polygons. This calculation is performed using the JTS Topology Suite, a library for 2D spatial work, and it runs as a Java webapp hosted on Google App Engine.
Originally I used Geotools to perform the geospatial calculations, but unfortunately it doesn't run on GAE, so I wrote an offline tool to convert the Natural Earth shapefiles to a JTS binary format. JTS works fine on GAE, but it lacks a distance calculator. Luckily spatial4j has the requisite distance functions, and it too works on GAE.
The webapp exposes a simple query endpoint, so a request for the following URL, for example:
will return a JSON document with the closest point on the coast, whether the (origin) location is on land or at sea, and the distance in metres to the coast:
The page that the user sees is a simple static HTML page that uses the Google Maps API (v3) to render the map and the markers, and jQuery to query the Java webapp.
The complete source code is on Github at https://github.com/tomwhite/how-far-away-is-the-sea.
Further ideasSome of the polygons are a poor approximation to the coastline, so it would be nice to get a higher-resolution dataset. There are likely many potential sources, such as this one for the UK.
It would be interesting to use the dataset to answer the question: "which is the furthest point from the sea [in the UK/in X/in the world]?". I'd like to find time to do that sometime. Adding in spatial indexes might be helpful too.

This Metaliteracy MOOC explores the metaliteracy model originally developed by Tom Mackey and Trudi Jacobson in Reframing Information Literacy as a Metaliteracy. This open learning experience turns theory into practice by exploring emerging technologies to collectively create and distribute information in an open participatory environment. We will interact with global participants and continuously reflect on our learning in this environment. This MOOC has been developed for course sharing between the University at Albany and Empire State College, at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and to engage with participants globally. It is also available to use in any way you find helpful or supportive in your own teaching, research, and/or learning journey. This is an open and flexible space that situates participants at the center of all learning activities. We hope to provide a meta perspective on the process of teaching and learning with the connectivist MOOC format.

General Queries
My child registered their device last year and will be using the same device next year - do we need to register again?
If your child has already registered their device, and already knows their network ID number, they do not need to re-register the same device. It is recommended that any software no longer required, is removed from their device in order to free up memory.
My child's device is being replaced – do we need to register again?
If a laptop: Curriculum software will need to be removed by ICTS. As it is necessary for Kristin to be compliant with software regulations, student laptops cannot be sold on with Curriculum software still installed.
If an iPad: Students should notify ICTS to remove their old iPad from the network, and then add their new device.
How many devices can my child register?
Junior students: only 1 device can be registered – this is called their 'Primary' device.
Year 7-10 students: a secondary device can be registered in addition to their 'Primary' device (this can be an iPad or phone).
Year 11-13 students: student device registration is unlimited.
What happens if my child's device is broken or faulty?
Since the programme is entirely BYO, you should contact your retail store or manufacturer for details for their repair service. ICTS can assist with guidance only in these matters. Home insurance should be checked in case the device needs to be added to your contents list.
Whilst your device is being repaired off-campus, students are able to borrow an iPad Mini from the library, for a two-week period. By actively using Google Mail and Google Drive, students can access their schoolwork from the iPad Mini.
We cannot attend any of the registration dates – what should we do?
If you already have the device, you are welcome to register the device prior to the end of Term 4.
A further registration slot will be assigned during week 1, during school hours. Following that, support classes will be offered in the first few weeks of Term 1 to assist students to complete the registration process. Unfortunately parents will not be able to attend these term-time classes.
What about Facebook as well as other social media sites during school-time?
Facebook is only applicable to Senior students and is allowed for a short time before and after school. Other social media such as Twitter, spotify etc. are not allowed.
Tablet Specific Queries
Do I need to associate my Credit Card with my child's Apple ID?
No you do not need to associate your credit card with your child's Apple ID. Please review Apple's information on Apple Families.
Can I oversee the maintenance of my child's App installations?
By using Apple Families, you will be notified as and when an App is being installed onto your child's device.
Laptop Specific Queries
What happens if my child's device displays signs of having a virus?
Anti-virus software is compulsory. A trial version is not acceptable. We have a promotional discount for EsetNod32. But alternative Anti-virus software can be used.
If your child's laptop is showing signs of malware or a virus, they should visit ICTS immediately for assistance. Anti-virus software is usually an annual subscription and should be re-newed.

Both of my boys struggled with reading in school, but now I can't get them to stop reading! Today, they're both writing their own stories…creative, happy and confident.
Being a single mom and making so little money, I thought owning a home was not a possibility for me, but I just had to push through.
I cried the first time I had my own key, my own door. I couldn't even believe it. I couldn't remember the last time I had this.

Updated Friday, Jan. 31 at 5:20 p.m.
State Rep. Amy Stephens of Monument on Friday announced she raised $51,000 in the fourth quarter of 2013, while Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck raked in about $154,000, as both are among a wide field of Republicans vying for the U.S. Senate nomination.
The totals from the pair pace far behind the $1.1 million amassed in the quarter by Democratic Sen. Mark Udall, who has about $4.7 million in the bank. Republicans as of late have stressed that Udall, who is vying for a second term, is vulnerable and point to a recent dispute his office had with state regulators over Affordable Care Act cancellations.
With the announcement Friday, Stephens, who entered the race two weeks into the fourth quarter, scrambled to form a finance committee her campaign touts will "help her raise the resources she needs to defeat" Udall in November.
Among those Stephens said will sit on the committee are Charlie Gallagher of the Denver-based Gallagher Industries and Columbine Health Plan President David McReynolds. The committee is chaired by former Colorado U.S. Sen. Hank Brown.
State Sens. Randy Baumgardner of Hot Sulphur Springs and Owen Hill of Colorado Springs are also vying for the GOP nomination, but did not release fundraising totals.

Poem For My Soldier
The nights are long and never ending, I knew when you left I'd miss you but
never did I imagine just how much. I'd love to see your smile and the way you
act silly when things don't go your way, I'd love to hold you and look into
your eyes. I wish you were here by my side you don't know how much I've cried.
You're so far away doing what you love and for the country you love. Nights go
by I wait for the phone to ring or even an email letting me know you're ok,
days go by and I hear not a word from you. Please be safe, please take care and
please remember me the one back home that can't wait to see your smile the same
smile that brightens my days when you are so far away. I'll be here till the
end for you are my soldier the one that keeps me safe day and night, the same
one that shines a star so bright.
To my soldier Joshua Farmer always remember I am here and there's nothing more
I would like to see than your smile.

Packers' Aaron Rodgers Hopeful To Play Sunday
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is hoping he'll be able to start this Sunday against the NFC North rival Minnesota Vikings. Rodgers suffered what he is calling a sprained knee in this past Sunday's win over Chicago. He left the game in the first half but later returned to guide Green Bay to an improbable fourth-quarter rally. Rodgers did not practice on Wednesday. Backup DeShone Kizer will get plenty of reps this week in case Rodgers can't play.

Was it hot enough for you?
The blistering heat experienced by the nation during August, as well as the June through August months, marks the second warmest summer on record according to scientists at NOAA's National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) in Asheville. The persistent heat, combined with below-average precipitation across the southern U.S. during August and the three summer months, continued a record-breaking drought across the region.
The average U.S. temperature in August was 75.7 degrees F, which is 3.0 degrees above the long-term (1901–2000) average, while the summertime temperature was 74.5 degrees F, which is 2.4 degrees above average. This monthly analysis, based on records dating back to 1895, is part of the suite of climate services the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration provides.
August was the warmest month on record in the South, according to data compiled by NOAA. Drier-than-normal conditions also reigned across the interior West, the Midwest, and the South.
Only nine of the lower 48 states experienced August temperatures near average, and no state had August average temperatures below average.
Despite record rainfall in parts of the country, drought covered about one-third of the contiguous U.S., according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.
Based on NOAA's Residential Energy Demand Temperature Index, the contiguous U.S. temperature-related energy demand was 22.3 percent above average during summer. This is the largest such value during the index's period of record, which dates to 1895.
NOAA's mission is to understand and predict changes in the earth's environment, from the depths of the ocean to the surface of the sun, and to conserve and manage our coastal and marine resources. For more climate-related information, visit www.ncdc.noaa.gov.

Tropical Storm Raymond forms in Pacific off Mexico
MEXICO CITY -- Tropical Storm Raymond steamed Sunday toward Mexico's southern Pacific coast, an area already devastated by rains and mudslides from Tropical Storm Manuel last month.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said Raymond was expected to become a hurricane soon, but predicted it would take a sharp westward turn and head out to sea before it reached land. However, it said the storm might get as close as 50 miles (80 kilometers) to the coast before turning, bringing the threat of new dangerous rains.
In a region where 10,000 people are still living away from their homes one month after Manuel caused widespread flooding and left landslide risks, officials raced to get emergency teams in place and weighed possible further evacuations.
Mexican authorities pinned their hopes on a cold front moving from the north that could help force Raymond to turn away from the coast, said the head of Mexico's National Water Commission, David Korenfeld.
"The cold front coming down is what makes it (Raymond) turn to the left, but that is a model," Korenfeld said. "If that cold front comes down more slowly, this tropical storm ... can get closer to the coast."
Raymond's center was about 145 miles (235 kilometers) south of the beach resort of Zihuatanejo and had maximum sustained winds of 70 mph (110 kph) late Sunday afternoon. It was moving north-northwest at about 6 mph (9 kph), the U.S. hurricane center said.
Authorities in southern Guerrero state, where storm deluges caused about 120 deaths from flooding and landslides in September, were more worried about Raymond's potential to bring more heavy rains than its winds.
The state government closed seaports, set up 700 emergency shelters and urged residents in risk areas to take precautions. Officials were expected to decide late Sunday on whether to order more evacuations, including from low-lying areas of Acapulco that flooded during Manuel.
Forecasters said Raymond was expected to slowly approach the coast late Monday or Tuesday but then begin to meander. The center said Raymond was likely to become a hurricane "very soon."
Forecasts warned that heavy rainfall was possible along the south-central Mexican coast in coming days and could cause life-threatening flash floods and mudslides. A tropical storm warning and hurricane watch was in effect from Acapulco west to the seaport of Lazaro Cardenas.
"There will be rain for the next 72 hours along the Pacific coast, very heavy rain, torrential rain," Korenfeld said.
The potential for damage from such rains is high. About 50 dams in the area were still over capacity, and officials were releasing water to make room for expected rainfall.
Dozens of hillsides along the coast are thought to be unstable and could collapse from additional rain. In advance of the storm, the government moved helicopters and work crews to the places that problems were most likely.
Some villages high in the mountains of Guerrero were still without electricity and phone service following Manuel.
About 5,000 people in Guerrero are still living in shelters after their homes were flooded, and another 5,000 who were evacuated from homes built on hillsides at risk of mudslides are staying with relatives on safer ground.
In Zihuatanejo, near the Ixtapa resort, authorities sent emergency personnel into low-lying areas to warn people to seek safer ground, said Miguel Quiroz, a local Red Cross dispatcher.
In Barra de Potosi, a beach area just outside Zihuatanejo, a light rain began falling Sunday but tourists were largely undisturbed by the storm's proximity.
"We've got bookings coming in, people are coming in," said London native Les Johnson, an employee at the Our House bed and breakfast. "There's people on the beach, it's quite nice ... there's no problem at the moment."

Dozens of Bay Area 8th graders will be able to update their Facebook pages tonight by logging onto their brand new MacBook laptop computers.
Courtesy of Facebook.
The Menlo Park social networking giant didn't have to look far when it decided to donate dozens of laptops - Cesar Chavez Academy is in nearby East Palo Alto. At an assembly Thursday afternoon, Facebook employees, along with local educators and Representative Jackie Speier, passed out the laptops to the very happy students.
"I wanna use it for high school and college," said 8th grader Evelyn Romero, "for the work that I really need to do."
With STEM education talked about so frequently in the Valley, the donation is really a way to begin to bridge the digital divide. Most schools have laptops; it's how things get done these days. As Facebook CIO Tim Campos says, "Could Mark Zuckerberg create Facebook if he didn't have a computer?"
No. He went to a school that had them. Now, so does Evelyn Romero.

On May 13, MedShare's Southeastern Regional Distribution Center loaded and shipped a 40 foot shipping container with medical humanitarian aid for Cameroon, West Africa. This was a joint project organized by the African Women's Development Foundation (AWDF) and the Hope Floats Initiative.
The container is carrying over 17,000 lbs of medical supplies and equipment, such as gauze, iodine, surgical instrument sets, emergency laryngeal airways, surgical masks, Patient Energy Transport vehicles, hospital beds, a surgical table, blood pressure monitors, and much more.
A large portion of the items will be donated to Limbe Regional Hospital in the Southwest province of Cameroon, where a recent outbreak of cholera has claimed over 98 lives, according to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. The Hospital has been overwhelmed with cholera cases in recent weeks and desperately needs the additional beds, Drip Drop Oral Rehydration Solution and other donated items that will be arriving.
The other supplies that were shipped on the container are earmarked for use by a team of physicians and nurses traveling from the US and Nigeria to Cameroon on a medical mission organized by the AWDF and Hope Floats Initiative. The team will be providing free medical care to needy families by setting up mobile surgical and consultation centers.
Please see below for photos of the container send-off celebration:

Optimism can take you far in life
The autumn leaves were at their peak of color as my oldest daughter was going outside in our yard to play volleyball with her waiting sisters. I was preparing lunch, and before my daughter ran out the back door, I asked, "Are you happy?"
Quite a matter-of-factly, with her always positive attitude, she replied, "Yes, mom, I'm happy." The sun was streaming into the kitchen window, and I paused for a quick prayer, thanking God for these dear children. And I said to her in a soft, reverent voice, "Okay, honey, that's what I want to know." Then, my daughter opened the door, and I heard the rustling tree leaves, as she skipped outside.
How optimistic and joyful are you? When you wake up in the morning, are you hopeful and enthusiastic about the day ahead? Or have life's challenges taken their toll on your outlook?
Today is a brand new day. It's a gift from God and it holds dozens of reasons to be thankful, to smile, to laugh, and to love. For we just need to be receptive and aware of them.
Years ago, I heard a folktale of two puppies who visited a house, and the interior of the house was covered in mirrors. When the first little dog arrived, he enthusiastically leaped through the front door. Full of expectation, his tail was wagging in pure delight. The happy puppy gazed into the mirror and then, amazed, he found himself staring at a thousand other joy-filled puppies. Yes, the other dogs looked just like him, jumping up and down happily, with their tails wagging and enjoying life. "This is a wonderful house, I can't wait to return!" he said to himself.
Thereafter, another puppy came to the mirrored house. This dog was unhappy and hung his head in gloom and doom as he slowly made his way through the front door. Growling with a sour attitude, he looked ahead, and then backed away, when he saw a thousand sad, unfriendly-looking dogs staring back at him. Leaving quickly, the puppy thought, "This house is terrible, I don't never want to come back!"
Life is like a mirror, it can give back to us our reflection. What we choose to send out via our thoughts, words, actions and deeds, can return, like a boomerang, back to us.
You may have been mistreated, made mistakes or had some setbacks, but don't live another day feeling sorry for yourself, being defeated and upset. Scripture says, "The Lord's mercies are new every morning." (Lamentations 3:23). With God, every day is a new beginning.
God is a faithful God. You can depend on Him, for He will not let you down. Everything may not be how you want it to be right now, but God is never in short supply. Stay hopeful, optimistic and determined. God is working in extraordinary ways that you cannot see or even imagine. "Those who hope in the Lord will not be disappointed" (Isaiah 49:23). For God didn't bring you this far to leave you now.
I have a longtime friend who went through a difficult time. He had some medical issues, experienced a tough legal situation, financial problems and the loss of a beloved family member.
Yet, amid it all, he continued to be one of the most optimistic, helpful and faithful people I know. He had every reason to have a sour attitude. However, my friend never lost his enthusiasm, his faith in God or his hopes for a brighter tomorrow. Whenever I saw him, he had a smile on his face. If I telephoned him, he'd tell me a joke, and I heard his hardy laugh across the phone line. When people needed help, he was always available for them.
Once, my friend told me something that I have never forgotten. "Every time I'm tempted to worry," he uttered, "I would thank and praise God." He said that daily, he'd thank God that he is alive. He would thank Him for making him strong and able to make a difference in other people's lives. Then, he'd thank God for his family, friends, for supplying his needs and for new opportunities. "And, especially, I never abandoned optimism," he declared, smiling.
Today, all of my friend's difficulties have been resolved and turned around for good, and he says that he is happier than ever before.
In 1989, two brothers began to sell tee shirts on the streets of Boston. They weren't very successful at first. Nevertheless, they didn't want to give up on their dream. One brother, who was very creative, drew a smiling stick figure and underneath printed the words, "Life is good." Thereafter, they printed the smiling image and uplifting phrase on 48 tee shirts and sold them at a local fair. The shirts, with their message of optimism, were an immediate hit with customers.
Today, brothers Bert and John Jacobs, go by the titles of chief executive optimist and chief creative optimist. Their company offers hundreds of different optimistic apparel and accessories all featuring positive messages, and "Life is good" has grown to be a great success.
Mother Teresa once said, "We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do." So, smile, get your joy back and brighten up with a delightful laugh. Do kind deeds, help others, and give them encouragement. Let your joy be seen by those around you. And choose to live this day happy.
For....Life is good!

Rated 5 out of 5 by yahtzee73 from I like strawberries eve not more! I bought 2 of these, 1 each for my 4 year old grandson & me. This was a Breese! I had to show him a couple of times but he loves strawberries and wanted something for us to use. Not only and I getting him familiar in the kitchen, I'm created for Seth & Mimi memories! I'd buy them again. Kids love helping and this is giving us a reason to be in the kitchen together! Prep & clean up was a breeze, little to no mess...Date published: 2017-04-17Rated 5 out of 5 by SSN77 from Such a great time saver!!!! I keep eyeing this tool and finally bought it and I am so glad that I did! Such a time saver and does a great job!!!Date published: 2017-01-15Rated 5 out of 5 by Donna03 from Best tool ever!! This strawberry Huller makes very fast work for getting strawberries ready to eat much quicker that using a knife to remove stem. The Huller removes strawberry stems perfectly without waste.Date published: 2016-07-08Rated 5 out of 5 by Chipmunk from Amazing! So worth it I debated for a long time about this, and I wish I'd bought it sooner. We mostly only eat strawberries in season, so there's not a huge window for us, but this tool makes it so quick and easy to hull a bunch of strawberries that I'm much more likely to make jam, add them to a salad, throw them in a smoothie, whip up some strawberry ice cream, etc. It's definitely worth getting if you like strawberries, and I could see it being useful for tomatoes, too.Date published: 2015-08-31Rated 5 out of 5 by musiclvr from Amazing little tool! My husband gave me one of his "oh no, not ANOTHER tool that doesn't work" when I brought this home....but I won the day! It's amazing, and so quick and neat. The hull comes right out of the strawberry with no difficulty at all. I would definitely recommend this to anyone - and it's not expensive either.Date published: 2015-05-12Rated 5 out of 5 by klovescats from An economical way to hull strawberries When I said I bought this my family thought I was crazy, but it was not expensive and it definately eliminates the waste involved in cutting stems from strawberries and quicker then hand pulling. Its great for making jam, fruit salad, smoothies, strawberry icecream or any dessert with strawberries. Defi ately worth buying. Also, it is usefull for hulling tomatos as its similar to their tomato huller.Date published: 2015-04-11Rated 5 out of 5 by RockyReviews from The Best Strawberry Huller Ever I've used a lot of strawberry hullers and by far this one is the best. It cleanly removes the leaves and hull and is easy to use. Perfect for prepping berries that you want to fill with cream cheese, frosting, etc. It's also great for coring tomatoes.Date published: 2014-08-11Rated 5 out of 5 by sonshine from Chef'n Strawerry Huller This is one awesome tool. I love it, love it, love it. I don't know how I managed before I purchased it. I liked it so much I purchased it for my granddaughter, and both daughters-in-law.Date published: 2014-05-23

State Codes and StatutesStatutes > West-virginia > 16 > 16-13b-6
§16-13B-6. Petition of property owners for creation of assessment district.
(a) After the meeting described in section five of this article, and before the governing body may adopt or enact an order or ordinance creating an assessment district, the governing body shall receive, within ninety days after the meeting, a petition in writing of (1) persons owning, in the case of a wastewater or water project, or both, not less than sixty percent of the frontage of the lots abutting on both sides of that portion of the public way located within the proposed assessment district on which the wastewater or water project or any part thereof may be constructed; (2) in the case of a flood relief project as defined in subparagraph (1) or (2), subsection (g), section two of this article, such percentage of property owners as the governing body shall have previously determined is necessary for such project to be economically feasible; or (3) in the case of a flood relief project as defined in subparagraph (3), subsection (g), section two of this article, persons owning not less than sixty percent of the lots which may receive flood relief protection from such a project, in each case requesting the creation of the assessment district and the completion of the project according to the plans, drawings and specifications submitted at the meeting, and agreeing to have their property assessed with the total cost of the project (or, if the governing body has previously determined that the assessments are only necessary to pay for part of the total cost, agreeing to have their property assessed with that part of the cost). The governing body may prescribe the form of the petition as it may deem appropriate, and the petition shall be held at all times in the office of the county clerk or the recorder, as the case may be, and shall be open to the public for inspection and execution during the normal business hours of such office.
(b) Upon receipt of the petition required under subdivision (2), subsection (a) of this section, and before the governing body may adopt or enact an order or ordinance creating an assessment district, the governing body shall establish, solely in the case of a proposed flood relief project as defied in subparagraph (1) or (2), subsection (g), section two of this article, a period which may not be less than thirty days or more than sixty days, during which any owner of property to be affected thereby may elect not to have the project undertaken with respect to his property, in which event the project shall not be undertaken on such property and such property shall not be subject to any assessments thereafter levied or any lien created pursuant to this article. Such election shall be submitted in writing to the governing body prior to the expiration of the election period so established.
(c) The governing body shall provide notice of the election period required in subsection (b) of this section to those persons whose property may be affected by such flood relief projects and shall set forth in the notice the property owner's election rights with respect thereto and an estimate of the assessments which may be levied against each lot or parcel of land so affected, based on the number of persons who signed the petition described in subsection (a) of this section, and shall also set forth the minimum number of persons who must elect to have the project completed to make the project economically feasible and the assessments which may be levied if not more than the minimum number of persons so elect. The notice shall be published as a Class II-O legal advertisement in compliance with the provisions of article three, chapter fifty-nine of this code, and the publication area for such publication shall be the assessment district. After the expiration of the election period, if the number of property owners not opting out of the flood relief project is less than the minimum number of property owners necessary for the project to be economically feasible, the governing body may, by ordinance or order, terminate any further actions concerning the proposed flood relief project and assessment district.

The closing on the sale of the Sanitary Sewer System has been postponed. For the short-term please contact Cheltenham Township with any sewer calls per the information below. (posted 12/6/2019)
If you see WATER COMING OUT OF MANHOLES, please call 911.
Do not email your Commissioner or Township Manager because emails are not monitored 24/7.
Property owners are responsible for maintaining the sewer lateral line that runs from their home/business to the Township's "main" sewer lines.
Tree roots are commonly attracted to lateral lines because of the abundance of water and nutrients in sewage. Roots can penetrate any crack or damaged joint. Once in the pipe, roots will expand until they fill all of the available space inside the pipe, which can lead to a sewer backup inside your house. The Township recommends that you schedule annual maintenance with your plumber to avoid a root problem.
During wet weather events, sewers are subject to infiltration and inflow (I & I). Surface water may enter the sewer via sump pumps, open vents or cracks in sewer pipes. Such excess water can overload the pipes and, in extreme cases, cause sewage to overflow from manholes or basement plumbing fixtures. Sump pumps in homes or businesses must be permanently piped out into a yard, seepage pit or storm drain, per Township Ordinance.
Cheltenham Public Works Department: Business hours, Monday – Friday, 7:00 a.m.to 3:30 p.m.

POOLER, Ga. – Led by senior All-American Joe Young (Cochran, Ga.) the No. 4 Georgia College golf team put up a final round 284 to finish sixth Tuesday at the Division I Mizuno Savannah Intercollegiate, hosted by Georgia Southern University. The Bobcats finished at five-over at the par-72, 7,016-yard Savannah Quarters Country Club course.
Young finished just one stroke out of the playoff for first place, carding a nine-under 207 for the three rounds. He posted rounds of 67, 70 and 70.
Sophomore Patrick Garrett (Kennesaw, Ga.) was 31st overall and second on the squad, finishing four-over par thanks to a two-under round today. He got steadily better, carding rounds of 78, 72 and 70. Rookie Gavin Harper (Twin City, Ga.) continues to perform, finishing 36th at five-over. He echoed Garrett's 70 today, combined with an 81 and 70 in the first two rounds for 221.
2010 All-PBC performer Billy Shida (Berkeley Lakes, Ga.) was 44th, carding rounds of 79-71-74 for an eight-over 224. Rounding out the scoring for the Bobcats was sophomore Bernardo Bide (Olavarria, Argentina) in 79th (78-82-80=240).
Florida Gulf Coast University ran away with the title, beating Wofford College by 17 strokes at 20-under par. The Bobcats leapfrogged Davidson College, Elon University and Arkansas State University in today's action to take sixth. The only other Division II team, Armstrong Atlantic, took 11th.
It took five holes, but Davidson's Richard Fountain finally ousted GSU's Logan Blondell for the individual title. The pair entered the playoff after finishing the tournament at 10-under.
The Mizuno tournament completes the fall season for Bobcat golf.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, back-to-back winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level.

Kubel rests troublesome left leg
PHOENIX -- Less than 24 hours after Jason Kubel collected two hits and drove in the first run of the season in the D-backs' 6-2 Opening Day win over the Cardinals, the club gave the left fielder Tuesday off to rest his left leg, which bothered him at times during Spring Training.
He fought through soreness in his left knee throughout camp, then twisted his ankle on the same leg on March 26.
"Kubel had been a little bit gimpy on and off in the spring, so it just kind of makes sense," D-backs manager Kirk Gibson said. "I thought he had a good productive day yesterday, and he'll be good off the bench if we need him. He'll be back in there tomorrow, I'd expect."
Gibson also mentioned Kubel's second-half slump last season, when he hit just .201 after the All-Star break, as another reason he wants to ease the 30-year-old's early workload.
Kubel struggled at the plate as well during camp, batting .156 in 45 spring at-bats, but he said he didn't read too much into those results, instead focusing on sharpening his approach and getting healthy for the regular season.
"I could care less about Spring Training," he said. "It's not even remotely the same feeling during those games. You're just getting ready and it ended up helping me out for yesterday. I felt pretty relaxed at the plate."
Kubel said playing nine innings didn't bother him at all, and the training staff continues to do a good job working on his leg.
Kubel led the D-backs in home runs (30) and RBIs (90) last year in his first season with the club.

How do you feel about Elena no longer being in the story? Are you planning to quit the show? Are you excited about new possible storylines to freshen up the series? What did you think about how Elena's farewell happened in the S6 finale?
I am very excited and hope for an emphasis on the Salvatore brothership. They have always been divided regarding their relationships with Elena and her doppelgängers. It would warm my heart to see their relationship strengthen. There has been so much rivalry in their lives from even before Elena. I wonder their mother will be a cause of more or if they can unite against her.
The show has always been about how everyone was connected by Elena. I wonder if anyone will drift away because she is not there. I am very intrigued to find out how Damon and Bonnie will progress. Will Elena's predicament create resentment or bring them closer? I am definitely hoping for the later as the Damon and Bonnie relationship was a highlight of last year.
I thought Elena had a beautifully designed and bittersweet ending. I definitely did not see it coming. I wonder if Bonnie is the safest person on the show now. That would be a significant contrast to how often Bonnie was in peril or did die in previous years. I liked how the spell gave everyone a chance to say goodbye or, at least, until we meet again. For a show about vampires and death, it was very moving in how much they capture the act of living. I loved the show played upon the old themes of "dance is life" and "vampires don't dance". The private dance in the forest with between Damon and Elena is an all time favorite television scene for me.

The meaning of words , in addition to what is politically correct changes with each generation. Here are some bookplates that are fixed in time. The word condemned book brings to my mind something like Tropic of Cancer but in the late 1800's at The Free Library in California it meant worn out , to be discarded.I asked fellow collector Richard Schimmelpfeng who is also a librarian about this archaic usage and he recalled that many years ago the term was used for books that had been handled by children who had contracted a contagious disease and such books were taken out of circulation.
Too bad these New York State laws are no longer enforced.
Look at the rubber stamp on the upper right corner of The Philadelphia Hospital bookplate.Can you imagine any contemporary mental health care professional saying out loud that they work in the "insane department"
If you have any bookplates that should be included in this posting send your scans to email@example.com
See you next Sunday .

During its winter board of directors meeting the NCSHAA voted on Thursday to discontinue using a playoff seeding system for football based on geography, and area football coaches couldn�t be happier.
During its winter board of directors meeting the NCSHAA voted on Thursday to discontinue using a playoff seeding system for football based on geography, and area football coaches couldn�t be happier.
Following much criticism and very little support, the system used for three seasons now to seed playoff-eligible football teams � known as the pod system � has been eliminated for all classifications except 1A.
Before the 2010-11 school year, the NCHSAA seeded playoff-eligible football teams much like the NCAA tournament � 16-team regions where No. 1 plays No. 16 and so on. Under the pod system, teams were seeded 1-16 overall then broken down into two eight-team pods per region based on geography. Top seeded did not always play the lowest seed possible.
While the NCHSAA�s intentions were good � it was intended to reduce travel and expenses � the matchups were often unfair and, too often, extended the conference season early in the playoffs.
Under the pod system, Kinston opened the 2011 playoffs with a home game against Eastern Plains 2A Conference foe SouthWest Edgecombe and traveled to Tarboro this season for a second round game.
�All the pod system really did was extend the conference play one more week for most teams,� Vikings coach Nick Anderson said. �I feel like it does sometimes make good teams play each other a little early. Number 1 seeds should always have the advantage of playing the worst seeds and it shouldn�t be based on how close they are to you.�
In his last season at the 1A level � for the next four years at least � Ayden-Grifton coach Paul Cornwell earned a favorable first round game against Gates County but then had to travel to eventual 1AA state champion Southwest Onslow for a second round game, the type of quality matchup that would normally be seen later in the playoffs.
Although the Chargers would have most likely been on the road in the second round this season had there not been a pod system, Cornwell�s complaint comes to the aid of teams such as Goldsboro, which finished the regular season 9-1, won the Carolina 1A championship and had to travel in the second round to Northampton County, another league champ.
�I think it was good for the small 1A (schools) but for everyone else I did not see the advantage,� Cornwell said.
Anderson and Cornwell will be conference foes once realignment takes place following the school year. They will be paired with Goldsboro, Greene Central, North Lenoir and South Lenoir to form the Eastern Carolina 2A Conference.
Not only will next year�s playoffs be seeded differently, the NCHSAA has also gone back to a 12-week regular season, which will begin on Aug. 23 and end on Nov. 8.
