Cutting through the mustard. We see so much propaganda on all sides, and people quote half-truths and lies as though they are the gospel. I look through the lens of the Bible and a Christian worldview.

Fans of Motorola's DROID RAZR lineup will be excited to hear that the upcoming Motorola DROID RAZR HD is shaping up to be an impressive handset. Over the past few days new details have emerged, confirming that the DROID RAZR HD will feature an 1196 x 720 HD display, Qualcomm's 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 processor with an Adreno 225 GPU and a Kevlar back panel similar to its RAZR siblings.
According to DROID-Life, the thickness of the Motorola DROID RAZR HD will be somewhere between that of the original DROID RAZR and the RAZR MAXX, which features a 3,300 mAh battery. The assumption is that Motorola will equip the RAZR HD with a 2,200 – 2,500 mAh battery, giving users at least a full day's worth of battery life under heavy use.
Those who passed on the DROID RAZR and RAZR MAXX due to performance concerns should be ecstatic to hear that the 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 processor inside the upcoming DROID RAZR HD more than doubles the 28.1 FPS NenaMark2 scores produced by its predecessors. We may only have one NenaMark2 benchmark score to go on, but at 59.1 FPS the DROID RAZR HD stands in contention with the HTC One X and the Samsung Galaxy S III.
The launch date of the Motorola DROID RAZR HD might not be right around the corner, but speculation is that the phone should show up on Verizon's 4G network in August.
What do you think of Motorola's upcoming flagship phone? Are the Motorola DROID RAZR HD rumors and leaks enticing enough to pass on the Samsung Galaxy S III?

Michael Jackson: 'Immortal'
Michael Jackson's memory will live on outside Grauman's Theatre in Hollywood, even though the King of Pop never had the chance to leave his hand and footprints at the famous site. In the first posthumous cementing ceremony, his children, from left, Prince, Paris and Blanket used his shoes and white glove to leave their father's mark. The celebration also celebrated the Cirque du Soleil show, "Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour." RELATED: Photos: Michael Jackson handprint and footprint ceremony

Girls Scouts getting busy
The Girl Scouts of Ridgway are holding a registration/pool party event Thursday, Aug. 18 from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. for both Girl Scouts and girls of all ages who may want to learn more about scouts."Registration forms will be available for both girls and adults who would like to become involved in Girl Scouts," said Rayetta Lindberg, who indicated family members also are invited to attend. "Financial assistance is available to girls for the registration fee."There also is no admission charge for the pool party, and food and drinks can be purchased from the concession stand."There will also be information about a Girl Scout trip to Pittsburgh to see 'The Grinch Who Stole Christmas' at the Benedum Center for the Performing Arts," Lindberg said. "Girls who are registered are eligible to go on the trip in November."For many of the volunteers involved with scouting, the program is about having fun and making friends."It's also about learning about what you can accomplish and developing self-esteem," Lindberg said. "It's about camping and trips, and helping others. Service projects are a big part of the program as it teaches girls they are part of a community and need to be involved."While the curriculum at area high schools require community service as part of graduation requirements, the Girl Scouts start at a much younger age."The girls are learning that community service makes you feel better sometimes too and it's an awesome thing to do-- it really isn't as awful as some people make it seem and they're being an important part of the community," Lindberg said. "I think if you encourage kids to see what the community is doing and be involved at an early age, you're going to be that much of a better person as you get older. "We're ensuring that we'll have a future as a community."Several community projects completed last year included programs at the Ridgmont Assisted Living Facility such as decorating cookies and singing carols, the yearly Mitten Tree placed at Ridgway BiLo to help collect mittens, hats and gloves, and the Bake-A-Thon held by Troop 20957. This particular troop baked and donated 237 dozen cookies to area police and fire departments, nursing homes and churches."We went to a nursing home in DuBois and made gingerbread houses with the residents at the facility," added Julie Hart. "The girls were able to make their own plus help the residents and after they did that, our troop then went to Ridgmont and helped the residents make gingerbread houses for themselves to either take to their rooms or put on display in the nursing home."The Girl Scouts also are able to aim for several goals including receiving awards at the Bronze, Silver and Gold levels."Girls in fourth grade start working on their Bronze award, and the older girls work on their Silver and finally their Gold awards," Lindberg said. "These awards are part of learning about community involvement, organizing a large project and following through to completion."These awards also teach communication and leadership skills."However, Lindberg admitted there seems to be a slight decline in membership over the years."I think some of it has to do with a lot of girls going out for sports," Lindberg said. "That takes a lot of their time but Girl Scouts has changed a lot-- you used to have to come to meetings every Thursday but now a lot of the requirements have been changed."There is no typical Girl Scout and the girls make the program what they want it to be and they get what they want out of the program. We see that the girls develop more self-esteem, they become more sure of what they're doing, they try new things and they're able to communicate better with people, and get along with people. We go on trips together and they're a lot of fun, but part of it is working together to get those trips to work."Pick up a copy of the Wednesday, Aug. 17, 2011 edition of The Ridgway Record for more.

A few weeks ago, we reintroduced you to an app called Klik, which had been making waves after being refined some by Face.com. Face.com is the company behind the face recognition app, which leverages more than just reading faces and naming names.
Klik is able to identify subjects in real-time: hold the camera up to a friend's face, and Klik can — within moments — tell you who it is. It connects with your Facebook account and uses your friends and their photos as a database it searches to recognize them in real life. And if it has trouble, there is a learn mode where it gives you options for who it thinks the subject is.
It's perhaps the most sophisticated face recognition technology users have been able to get their hands on, and that's just Klik. The Face.com API has various other bells and whistles to show off, like age and gender detection, and even mood reading.
Combine this with Facebook's recent launch of its Camera App and Klik's further moves into mobile by integrating extensively with the social network's platform are why rumors stemming from an Israeli blog report saying Facebook's next acquisition will be Face.com make a whole lot of sense. During my hands-on with Klik, I actually wondered how long until someone – probably Facebook, maybe Apple – scooped up this technology.
In lieu of the speculation, let's look a little harder at Face.com. It's an Israel-based startup with offices in Tel Aviv and New York. It was founded by Gil Hirsh in 2007, the product of GarageGeek, a Tel Aviv startup event, and has since become responsible for an incredibly popular and well-used free API. Most tellingly, Face.com was purported to be the technology used to create Facebook's auto-tagging feature introduced last year (the company has declined to comment on the rumor).
Face.com is worth something, too. Russian search engine Yandex invested in the company in 2010, which not only meant more money but a serious name in tech giving it even more credibility.
By many accounts, the deal is as good as done and Facebook will buy Face.com for $100 million. Of course we should all swallow a large grain of salt right now: Post IPO, it's not unusual for startups to try and ride coattails for higher valuations. Still, it all makes a lot of sense, so let's get to the good stuff: Why should you care about this very possible acquisition.
Facebook users should care for one of two reasons, possibly both depending on your point of view. You're either going to care because for privacy's sake: Do you really want more systems that recognize and tag you on Facebook? Or, you're going to think real-time: Seamless face recognition is really, really cool.
Starting with the latter, it would be really cool. Like it or not, tagging friends in Facebook photos has long been one of the site's most popular features. And given that it's the world's most popular photo sharing platform, combining tagging with new recognition technology means it's an even quicker process. And add to the equation that Facebook is trying to do a better job with mobile (as partially evidenced by its Camera App), and the added incentive a mobile-only feature like this gives it seems perfectly logical. One of the most convincing elements of the Camera App is that you can tag friends from it, and the ability to simply take, filter, and upload a picture without having to manually find the corresponding name would make it a fundamentally better user experience. It's also a fun novelty to hold up your phone and have an app simultaneously identify your friends.
Now for the requisite privacy section of this article. There are plenty of people who balked when Facebook introduced auto-tagging, and these same folks won't like the idea of full Face.com integration. Every time someone takes your picture, you have to accept it might end up tagged on Facebook, and introducing this tool would mean that is many times more likely. And it means features like age, mood, gender, weight, height, and more could also be recognized, labeled, and put on Facebook.
Right now, the way Klik works is that it only reads your Facebook friends' likenesses; I can't take a picture of my friend's friend who I am not Facebook friends with (I fully realize the ridiculousness of that statement) and tag him or her in real-time. But that's right now, and futurist privacy advocates will ask when this will happen – when will we be able to use an app, maybe the Facebook Camera app plus Face.com, to take pictures of strangers and identify and tag them in real time?
Not at the moment, that's for sure, but it's an implication Facebook would have to be prepared to handle. The company has had plenty of practice handling privacy questions, however, and those concerns certainly aren't going to keep Facebook from its mobile conquest.

Dog aggressive
So I figured I'd bring up this issue even though it doesn't really affect us a whole lot, just figured I'd get some input.
We have two dogs, Eli(will be three in Jan 2014 and is fixed) and Cato(just turned 1,not yet fixed).
Cato is really interested in other dogs, though greets them with his hackles up. Never had any issues there though, he just seems cautious.
Eli however has always been extremely standoffish with other dogs, we always just attributed it to his breeds(German Shep/Akita). Even when we brought him home as a puppy, he would sniff them, but then not care to play with them. As he got older, it started turning aggressive to where he would sniff for a couple seconds and suddenly a fight would ensue.
On walks nine times out of ten if another dog attempts to approach him or they get too close, he'll snarl and try to lunge at them to keep them at bay.
He's walked on a prong collar which more or less eliminates his ability to lunge, and we use a bark collar as well and it's greatly improved this issue among others. Now usually he is fine to just sit and let the other dog pass as long as there is a good 6+ feet between them. There are 2-3 exceptions for dogs that have caused a lot of issues for him in the past, but most of them belong to seasonal cottagers so we only have to deal with them in the summer.(Aside from 1)
The weird thing is though, that there have been the very select few dogs he's been fine with. Our other dog(male) for one(whom we brought home as a puppy),our in-laws shepherd mix that he grew up with, our seasonal neighbors' two cocker spaniels(male and female), and just recently, a female mastiff puppy.
Again, he's fairly standoffish with them, doesn't really play much, just wants to sniff.The only dogs he actually plays with is our Cato and my in-laws dog whom he grew up with.
We like to play fetch in our unfenced yard as well as it's his favorite game. Due to the bark collar he is now able to ignore most dogs passing by and other distractions which has been a fantastic improvement. Just this past long weekend there is a st.Bernard who came onto our property and Eli chased him off just to the far side of our neighbor's driveway twice. No attempts to make direct confrontation, just seemed to want him off our property.
He also was playing with Cato the other night and Cato ran into my neighbor's yard to greet her dog(one of the ones that has caused a lot of issues for Eli) and Eli, probably thinking cato spotted a rabbit took off after him and my neighbor flipped out yelling for me to get Eli away from her.
I mean, I know he doesn't like her dog(or her for that matter, understandably) but he wouldn't run into some other dog's territory just to attack them or anything. Even before we started working on the aggression issues he wouldn't have, and as soon as he seemed to realize what was happening, he came right back with no attempts to engage her dog.
Now, my question is that is there some way to figure out what exactly causes this behavior in him? He was never attacked or anything by another dog to cause it, although when we got him, we lived in the boonies so as much as we tried to socialize him, it probably wasn't enough.
Any thoughts though?
He's absolutely fantastic otherwise. Huge cuddlebug and just an all around goofy suck. He's great and patient with our other dog. Great alert dog when someone unknown is on our property, smart,loyal,loves to play. Definitely a one-family kind of dog. I'm almost 40 weeks pregnant and he seems to be taking all the changes in stride as well. He seems to know he's allowed in the nursery, but that playing in there's not allowed. He nuzzles the baby items and my belly. I just could not ask for a better companion in every other way.
xcaer, like barkingdog, I too have some very strong thoughts on the matter. You are taking risks and I have to be really honest, if you were my neighbor and this has happened more than once on any level, I probably wouldn't be too happy. I am VERY happy to hear that your dog inflicted no physical damage to the other dog. But the owner and her dog were 'traumatized' to some degree without a doubt.
Imagine if another dog threatened or attacked your dog in your yard. Imagine if they wounded your dog. Try to imagine if it was a terrible wound, or worse. You would be furious, so would I and depending on the relationship you have with your neighbour...they may still be very upset. The reason doesn't matter because there is NEVER a good to be attacked on your own property. There is NO DEVICE that I know of that will keep your neighbour's safe from your dog 100% of the time. Anti bark collars do NOT work 100% of the time. The threat that happened to your neighbour's dog is likely still in your neighbour's mind. Your neighbour probably doesn't feel safe anymore, I know I wouldn't.
I don't know how big your property is, but If I were your neighbor I'd want your yard 100% fenced or your dogs on leash 100% of the time. Simple as that.
If after my dog was threatened/attacked, if I saw that these things were not done, I'd be very very upset and as much as I love all animals I'd probably call animal control. It is legally your responsibility to protect other people and property from harm from your dog. It's also part of being a good neighbor.
Please please try to rectify this situation to your NEIGHBOUR's satisfaction. The risk level to your neighbour's dog should be zero.
Although it's true that your neighbor could also put up a fence, and possibly split the costs - your dog was the attacker, and your dog may well attack again.
After your neighbors are protected, then group obedience training for your dogs is highly recommended. And I'd neuter the intact dog as well.
Hope that wasn't too harsh - just calling it like I hear it and trying to help you avoid potential future conflicts with neighbours and potentially police officers/animal control.
Please tactfully EDUCATE or IGNORE posters you don't agree with.
Please PM me & Include URLs and post #'s for any issues and it's my pleasure to help.
I'm firm - but fair. Mind the Rules and enjoy your stay.

I know for a fact if the OP lived in New Hampshire and their dog attacked another dog that dog would had been shot on the spot with no questions asked. I am very concerned about child getting bitten in the face . My granddaughter was walking over to pet the dog that attacked my dog for no reason. My daughter was there too and we both where horrifies to think that her daughter and my grandchild could had gotten attacked too.
I hope my grandchild learned a very valuable lesson from this whole thing , I know I did. It only take a few seconds for a dog to run across yard and lunge at child playing with their dog in their own yard.

Ooof, my heart hurts for Jennie Garth today. Our girl Kelly Taylor admits she is hurting, y'all! Ex-husband Peter Facinelli is officially back out there, dating Nurse Jackie co-star Jaimie Alexander. And the mother of his children has had to take questions from the media on how she feels about it all.
Any guesses what she had to say about this new woman in Peter's life?
I think there will come a time when it won't sting so bad. But I'm not quite there yet ... You know, I am happy that he is happy, though.
Well, gee, you mean it's hard to see someone move on after a decade of marriage? Duuuuuuh!
How did people think Jennie would react to her ex-husband dating? The father of her children is dating another woman. That's a tough thing to stomach.
Although well-meaning friends will warn you that you can't be "stuck" on someone, people need to realize that sting Jennie is talking about is less a sign that you aren't progressing after divorce and more a symbol of shared history. I don't care how hard you've worked to build a new life after a marriage disintegrates; for some people that sting may never completely go away.
Marriage is complicated. Divorce is even more complicated. But the fact is, when you're tied to one another for even a short time in matrimony, you form memories together. Being separated from that person, seeing them build new memories with another person, it's hard not to revisit the good times in your head.
Heck, this isn't only true of former spouses. We do that with old friends who come into our lives from time to time -- there's nothing sadder than running into an old friend from high school and remembering the person you were when you were pals. What's hardest is realizing that person, that version of you, is gone.
My heart goes out to Jennie right now, especially as she faces the first holiday season post-separation.
Anyone have any tips for dealing with watching your ex start dating again? Have you felt the same sting Jennie is talking about?

"Maybe I'm just naive, but designing a graphics API such that all image data had to be sent over a socket to another process every time the image needed to be drawn seems like complete idiocy. Unfortunately, that is precisely what the X Window System forces a program to do, and exactly what Cairo does when drawing images in Linux - a full copy of the image data, send to another process, no less, every time it is drawn. One would think there would be some room for improvement. Unsurprisingly, others felt the same way about X, and decided to write an extension, Xlib Shm or XShm for short, that allows images to placed in a shared memory segment from which the X server reads which allows the program to avoid the memory copy. GTK already makes use of the XShm extension, and it seems like a good idea to see if Gecko couldn't do the same."

It sounds like you're thinking of VNC. I'm pretty sure that RDP only sends the *instructions* and raw image data (if needed) to draw the window on the client side.
So no, watching a DVD wouldn't be a full-screen update @ refresh rate.
So no, watching a DVD wouldn't be a full-screen update @ refresh rate.
Try it and watch the difference between Windows & Linux. Highly recommended.
The difference between VNC and RDP is that VNC captures the desktop and sends modified part, while RDP sits at the GDI level, it sends GDI drawing commands over the network. As the GDI has no "overlay" facilties, watching video on RDP falls back to sending RGB images over the network.

Sorry for the lateness, I have recently caught a bad case of the stomach flu.
SMEERPS: Silverdream
The Combined Smeerp army greedily devour the cow.
They quickly eat the cow, and although the heroic feat tied 3 times, they gained no boost from the cow remains.
They then sit on their rabbit asses for the rest of the turn.
CIVILIANS: lawmaster
The peasants go on a bunny eating spree, tearing some in half.
When the bound peasant attempts to eat Che Guev-hare-a, he gets his head blown off by sheer revolutionary rage.
For causing the second most awesome event this turn, Che's tail turns blood red, not from the spilled blood, but from Communism.
Somehow, these two dumbasses manage to choke to death.
The Butcher somehow fails to kill Brownnose with both a feat and an action.
This guy fails to both kill the ork, or banhammer himself.
This ork gets killed however.
LOWTOWER: Germanico
Peter sings the song "Wolves like Bloody Rabbits" which I couldn't find anywhere. His mumbling gives the rabbits a -1 to all rolls, somehow.
He then nearly kills the Black Codpiece, but doesn't do enough damage.
These dudes move up uselessly.
The Ranger of Thorolund kills the other ork.
BATTLE JESTERS: Alex
The Black Codpiece crawls to a standing position and grabs himself a sword.
After failing a circle swing feat, he half runs, half stumbles to the keep, tripping himself up in the process.
ORKS: Zahru II
The Great Bull hands off his Spearaxe to the Chieftain.
He winds up for a charge.
He easily spears the Ranger on his horn.
With a couple crits, he tears the peasant in half, getting himself some sort of head-kilt in the process.
Even while blocking the club, the amount of crits blows through another peasant.
He then smashes Peter Lowtower, who loses a leg (halved movement) and one HP.
Peter then grabs the Great Bull by the head-kilt and holds on for dear life.
The most badass moment of this turn comes to an end when even Crits-McBull can't fell the Lowtower Standard.
The Chief then fails with both of his weapons.
RABBIT LIBERATION FORCE: aoffan23
Brownnose bites the hand off the Butcher with a crit on a D8 (-1HP)
Then retreats to the top of the tree. (Leaves are gone because they were being a huge pain in the ass)
Another crate is flipped.
Feel free to send orders!

Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, who carried on a nearly two-year hoax that fooled star Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o into thinking he had a girlfriend that didn't exist, opened up to Dr. Phil McGraw in an interview set to air later this week.
Dr. Phil unveiled some of the key revelations from the interview on the Today show Wednesday morning — including that he'd asked if Tuiasosopo had fallen in love with Te'o.
(READ: More Manti: 7 Recent Revelations in the Te'o-Kekua Fiasco)
"I asked him straight up, 'Was this a romantic relationship with you?' And he says yes. I said, 'Are you then therefore gay?'" McGraw told Mike Taibbi on NBC's Today show. "And he said, 'When you put it that way, yes.' And then he caught himself and said, 'I am confused.'''
"Here we have a young man that fell deeply, romantically in love,'' McGraw told Taibbi.
Tuiasosopo's feelings aren't necessarily shared by the man he conned, Manti Te'o, who told Katie Couric last week that he was "far from gay." The interview with Tuiasosopo will air in two parts, on episodes of Dr. Phil Thursday and Friday.
It was reported last week that the female voice on the other end of the line was not a woman at all, but was instead Tuiasosopo himself — a report he confirmed to McGraw. Perhaps it wasn't so far-fetched that Te'o was fooled by the 22-year-old; audio of messages from "Lennay Kekua" are fairly convincing, and the New York Daily News reported that "Tuiasosopo's résumé includes vocal and dramatic training."
(LIST: Who's Who in the Manti Te'o Fake Dead Girlfriend Scandal)
The tawdry tale broke earlier this month after a detailed investigation by Deadspin. Two reporters were unable to find any record of Lennay Kekua, Te'o supposed girlfriend, whom he said died of leukemia in September. Te'o had claimed he and Kekua, a Stanford student, had been dating for about a year and spread a number of touching stories about her, including that they would fall asleep on the phone together. "When he woke up in the morning his phone would show an eight-hour call, and he would hear Lennay breathing on the other end of the line," he told Sports Illustrated in September.
Several observers, including the reporters of the original story, speculated as to whether Te'o himself might have been involved in the hoax, given the amount of detail he added about his relationship. But Tuiasosopo said that Te'o had nothing to do with it. "Absolutely unequivocally no," McGraw said on the Today show.

Venture Opens New Plant to Build Sonic Trailers
November 20, 2013 by RVBusiness · 1 Comment
Venture RV, a division of KZRV LP, has opened a new production facility to keep up with product demand.
"We had an exceptional Open House with both the SportTrek lightweight travel trailer and the all new Sonic ultra-lightweight travel trailer," Dave Boggs, director of sales and marketing, said in a press release. "The dealers liked what we had to offer and responded with orders. The manufacturing facility recently started production of Venture RV's newest addition, the Sonic ultra-lightweight trailer. The opening of this facility will allow us to deliver the Sonic to our dealer base more efficiently and in a timely manner."
The Sonic facility encompasses more than 65,000 square feet of manufacturing space, which includes an in-house sewing department. Boggs noted that the opening the facility helps the economic growth to the local economy. "As with KZRV, Venture is a big part of the surrounding communities," he said.
He added, "It's nice to see our team pull together and achieve the goal of opening this plant. Our departments take pride in producing a quality product that delivers exceptional craftsmanship and innovation."
The Sonic is available in five floorplans that range from 17 to 25 feet in length and weigh between 2,995 and 4,500 pounds. The MSRP for the nicely equipped Sonic ultra-lightweight travel trailer has a starting MSRP of $18,999.
Venture RV will be displaying the Sonic at this year's Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) National Rv Trade Show in Louisville, Ky., in Booth No. 3035 in the North Wing.

Surgical Procedures for Thyroid Cancer
by Rosalyn Carson-DeWitt, MD
Surgery is the initial procedure in the treatment of many solid cancers. Surgery and other invasive procedures work by removing cancerous tissues.
A thyroidectomy is an operation to remove all or part of the thyroid gland. There are four main types of thyroidectomy:
For the treatment of follicular, papillary, or medullary thyroid cancer, near total or total thyroidectomy is usually recommended. These types of surgery provide the best chance for a cure. Lymph nodes in the area can be examined and removed during the course of the procedure.
Description of the Procedure
You will receive a general anesthetic prior to your thyroidectomy. You'll be placed on the operating table. A roll will be positioned under your shoulders and the base of your neck, so that your head is flexed back and your neck exposed. A curved incision will be made in your lower neck, and the tissue will be pulled back to expose the thyroid gland and surrounding lymph nodes. The thyroid gland, lymph nodes, and any tissues that appear to have been invaded by the cancer will be removed. Your surgeon will be very careful during the operation to try to avoid nicking or injuring all of the parathyroid glands and nearby blood vessels and nerves.
If you are making a good recovery, you may be able to go home from the hospital within a day or two of a thyroidectomy. You may be able to return to work within about a week.
Thyroidectomy is extremely effective for early stage thyroid cancer, providing a nearly 100% chance of cure.
Possible Complications
Possible complications of a thyroidectomy include the following:
Postoperative Care
Your vital signs will be monitored regularly after surgery (heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, temperature), and you will be given intravenous fluids. You'll be allowed to drink liquids and perhaps advance to a soft diet some hours after surgery. Additionally, your doctor will monitor blood calcium levels by giving you tests and by tapping on your cheek to see if your facial nerve is twitchy (a sign of low blood calcium).

It was the home opener for Chattanooga.
Chattanooga's Kelly Downs scored an unassisted goal at 66:34 as she found the net from 18 yards away into the left corner of the net.
"It was a very even game," said Lady Bisons coach Jon Ireland. "It came down to who was going to get the first goal. I knew that was going to happen.
"Chattanooga hit a great shot. The ball popped out and the girl hit a perfect shot into the corner."
Kelsey Swann added an insurance goal at 88:05. Becca Smith, who made a game-high six shots, earned the assist.
Chattanooga attempted 16 shots, seven on goal. The Lady Bisons were credited with nine shots, four on goal.
"After they scored the first goal we had to press everyone forward," said Ireland. "That is when they got most of their shots was late in the second half.
"We started pushing everyone up trying to get the tying goal. At that point it doesn't matter if you lost 1-0 or 5-0. That is how they scored the second goal."
Freshmen midfielder Martika Powe and freshman defender Ashley Duggins each attempted two shots for the Lady Bisons.
Erin Zerio started out in goal for the Lady Bisons and did not face a shot. Ally Marler was in net for the second period and made five saves.
"It was a very, very defensive battle. I kind of thought it might be headed into overtime because the game was so even in a lot of ways. Neither team was able to do a whole lot, but when they got their first goal that was it.
"We really crashed it hard the last 10 minutes and created a couple of good chances. We came close to tying it a couple of times."
The Lady Bisons, who have played their last three games on the road, are 2-2. Chattanooga is 2-0.
"Chattanooga is very tough to beat at home," said Ireland. "They are very organized and very disciplined.
"We were disappointed with the way we played in the first half. I chewed them out at halftime. In the second half we played stronger overall. We were much sharper in terms of our possessions and we won a lot more 50-50 balls."
Sunday afternoon the Lady Bisons are back home for a 1 p.m. game with Arkansas-Pine Bluff. The game will be played on the practice field next to Cofer's Chapel at 3915 Franklin Pike.

Although much has been heard of Nigerian Pastor T.B. Joshua whose miraculous activities, prophetic utterances and charitable endeavours are viewed by millions via Emmanuel TV, little has been heard of his children.
However, Joshua's ministry revealed that today, his first daughter by name Serah, graduated from the prestigious London School of Economics with flying colours.
The message, which was revealed on Joshua's Facebook account followed by over 200,000 people read, "Everybody says that TB Joshua has no child but today, to the glory of God, his first child is graduating from London School of Economics, School of Law! Her name is Serah Joshua and she came out with second class honours upper division, only one point to first class honours!"
The post concluded by stating her obedience to God was key to her success. "When you take action in obedience to God, you will prosper," it read. Known as Africa's most persecuted pastor, various rumours have circulated in the past concerning Joshua's family, as well as his pastoral background and calling into the ministry. Indeed, several years ago at the height of Joshua's persecution, it was often reported that he had no children or that those he claimed to have were illegitimate.
However, with the popularity of his Christian television station Emmanuel TV, people are increasingly acknowledging Joshua as a prophet of God and his ministry is patronised weekly by thousands of pilgrims seeking spiritual help. Serah's academic success will be seen as another argument attesting to Joshua's authenticity, especially in an age where pastor's childrens are gaining a reputation for tarnishing their parents moral image with their unruly behaviour.
Joshua's Facebook account later revealed that Serah had been granted admission to study for her Masters in Law in various presitigous America universities including Columbia University, New York University (NYU), University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) as well as in the London School of Economics.
When asked in an interview with Nigeria's Guardian newspaper in 2009 regarding whether his children will follow his footsteps in the ministry, Joshua said, "The ministry is not a will; it is not a property you can will to your children. It is a spiritual inheritance and the Bible talks about the inheritance of saints. You must meet God's condition and no human hand can be employed to do the work of God. It is predestined, as it should be by divine will. I cannot force my children to follow in my footsteps, they have to decide on their own, and I can only point them to the way… I cannot give them the power because I am not the owner of the power. I can only do my best to train them in the way of the Lord and if they are ready to follow and make a difference, it is their choice, not mine."

Standard definition has for many years given us great TV pictures; however, with the introduction of plasma and LCD TVs, High Definition (HD) TV has become possible. The HD experience is a major step forward and has to be seen to be believed.
High Definition produces magnificent picture quality, crisp detail and amazingly vivid colour. It is like nothing you will have experienced before. If you are looking to buy a new television smaller than 37in then a HD Ready TV will give you fantastic results from a high definition source such as a Freesat HD box.
If you are looking for a larger TV and want a true home cinema experience, then you may want to look out for the next generation of high definition - 1080p HD.
High Definition is reliant on the number of pixels on the screen to display high levels of detail. 1080p HD uses twice as many pixels as a HD Ready TV, taking an already superb high definition picture and adding even more minute detail.
For the ultimate in picture quality connect a 1080p HD TV to a source such as a Blu-ray™ Disc player or Sony PS3 games console.
|The picture is made up of 720 lines, about 100 more than a traditional TV picture. The image you'll see is much better quality than before.
|HD 1080i
|1080i gives you even better picture definition, with over a thousand lines making up the image. The 'i' means it saves space on the airwaves by broadcasting only half the signal at a time, first one half then the other - so fast the eye doesn't notice.
|HD 1080p (Blu-ray™)
|1080p gives you the sharpest, most detailed images of all, since the picture is made up of 1080 lines all broadcasting at once (not half at a time like 1080i) meaning fast-moving sports and action scenes are blur-free. No channels are broadcasting 1080 line television programmes yet. But buy a 1080i or 1080p TV, and you'll get the most out of the High Definition DVDs already on sale in Blu-ray™ formats.
Many TV manufacturers also have their own picture enhancing 'engines'. The software inside the TV enhances the picture by managing colour levels, contrast, brightness and resolution to produce sharper, clearer images with richer and more realistic colour.
TVs with picture enhancement are usually models with lots of other great features, look out for these throughout our range.
If you watch lots of fast moving sports or action movies then you will benefit from a TV with 100Hz technology. The TV smooths the motion, reducing any blurring or judder, giving crisp, smooth action.
Remember, 'Digital' and 'High Definition' aren't the same thing. Digital refers to how the signal is broadcast, whereas High Definition refers to the quality of the image. Even before broadcasts begin, High Definition quality is already available on disc in Blu-ray™ formats.
Blu-ray ™ is DVD for the 21st century. High Definition brings the best possible picture quality to an HD-Ready TV. You can now enjoy this improved picture from the format known as Blu-ray ™ Disc. It outputs in the highest resolution of 1080 pixels, giving the ultimate in sharpness. A 1080 pixel HD TV uses twice as many pixels as a HD Ready TV, taking an already superb high definition picture and adding even more detail.
Blu-ray ™ Discs hold significantly more data than a standard DVD disc. Not only does this deliver your favourite movies in high definition, an added benefit of the technology is the ability to include interactive features. This can take the form of director's commentary, trailers or even ways to interact directly with the movie's content.
More than the picture
The benefits of Blu-ray ™ Discs extend beyond the amazing picture quality. Many Blu-ray ™ Discs hold another feature - full 7.1 surround sound. When using a compatible Blu-ray ™ player and home cinema system you can enjoy the ultimate home cinema experience. Hear everything as it happens around you, immersing you in the centre of the action.
To take full advantage of 7.1 surround sound available with Blu-ray ™ discs, look out for players that have 7.1 HD audio decoding. You will also need a home cinema system to benefit from the surround sound available on Blu-ray ™ Discs.
Why get a Blue-ray™ disc player?
If you have an HD-Ready TV then there is no better way of making the most of the improved picture quality available.
A Blu-ray ™ player will significantly improve the visual experience of movies, as well as the many TV series that are now being released onto this format. The perfect match for Blu-ray ™ is a 1080HD - Ready TV as the output from the disc exactly matches the capability of the television screen, giving you the best picture quality possible. Blu-ray ™ disc players can also play all standard DVD discs and will even improve the picture quality of these to a near HD experience.
Making the connection
When using Blu-ray ™ technology you will need an HDMI cable to connect the player to your HD Ready TV.
A HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is the modern day equivalent of the scart lead. It transfers data digitally from the player to your TV, reducing any interference and delivering amazing crisp pictures and sound.

Robert Trent was walking his children to the bus stop Wednesday morning when he noticed another man walking down the road.
Robert Trent was walking his children to the bus stop Wednesday morning when he noticed another man walking down the road. He instantly recognized him as a Havelock man who had been missing for more than 24 hours.
�I always pay attention to the news, and the city of Havelock had it all over their Facebook page,� Trent said.
The search for Steven Daniel Tompkins, 28, of Havelock, ended when Trent noticed him shortly after 7 a.m. Wednesday on South Forest Drive.
�I started talking to him and gave him some water,� Trent said of Tompkins, the subject of a statewide silver alert on Tuesday. �He said he had slept in his car all night, but we know that�s not right.�
Trent, a Cherry Point Marine, notified a passerby to contact authorities, who arrived along with rescue personnel. Diane Miller, city spokeswoman, said Tompkins had bug bites and was suffering from dehydration but was otherwise OK. Tompkins was taken to CarolinaEast Medical Center in New Bern for observation.
Tompkins was reported missing early Tuesday morning. A statewide silver alert was issued later in the morning for the man who is believed to suffer from some form of dementia or other cognitive impairment, according to information from the N.C. Center for Missing Persons.
Authorities had located Tompkins� 2003 Nissan Maxima on Tuesday morning parked on the side of Railroad Street in Havelock with the keys still in the ignition, Miller said. The location is near a wooded area that is part of the Croatan National Forest.
Havelock police and Havelock Fire and Rescue personnel used four-wheel ATVs to look for Tompkins on Tuesday along clear lines and a trail in the forest. Morehead City police tracking dogs assisted, as did personnel aboard the Pedro search and rescue helicopter from Cherry Point.
The city also received help in the search from the Newport Police Department, the North Carolina Highway Patrol aviation unit and area troopers, Craven County Sheriff�s Office and Carteret County Sheriff�s Office. The Cherry Point base mobile command center was also sent to the scene at the intersection of Creek Drive and Railroad Street.
Authorities searched until about 9:30 p.m. Tuesday and were returning to the area Wednesday morning to continue the search when Trent spotted the man.
"I'm very appreciative of those residents in the area who assisted us and to all the law enforcement and firefighters who responded to the mutual aid call for assistance," said Havelock Police Chief G. Wayne Cyrus.

2013 Sioux Empire Sportsmen's Show Helps Fight Diabetes
SIOUX FALLS - Each year at the Sioux Empire Sportsmen's Show you'll find members of the Sioux Falls Cosmopolitan Clubs working to raise money for people with diabetes. The Sportsmen's Show features about 200 exhibitors displaying the latest in hunting, fishing, boating and outdoor recreation needs.
Cenaiko Productions puts on the Sportsmen's Show and the Cosmopolitan Club members work shifts selling raffle tickets and taking tickets at the door.
The Cosmopolitan clubs receive a percentage of the ticket sales."All the money we raise we give away for diabetes related care," said Casey Tomac Cosmopolitan Club member.
Tomac says each year the club sends children with diabetes to Camp Gilbert, http://www.campgilbert.com/ a summer camp near Waubay, South Dakota that is especially for children with diabetes.
"The kids can interact with other kids who have diabetes and it's more comfortable for them when they have to stop what they're doing to test their blood sugar levels," said Tomac. Volunteer nurses work at the camp to care for the children while they're away from their families.
The Cosmopolitan Club has a booth at the show where they sell raffle tickets for several major prizes that are donated. The Sportsmen's Show starts Thursday at 5:00 pm and runs through Sunday at 6:00pm at the Sioux Falls Arena and Convention Center.

Gopher stadium nearly ready
MINNEAPOLIS - Nick Tow-Arnett knows Sept. 12 will be a special day.
That is when the Redwood Falls, Minn., native and his teammates first run into the new University of Minnesota football stadium to play a game.
The 6-foot-2, 247-pound senior tight end knows the TCF Bank Stadium will offer a different feel than he has experienced down the street in the Metrodome.
"It's absolutely ridiculous when you walk in there," Tow-Arnett said. "It is absolutely amazing. The field is phenomenal. You can see all of the Minneapolis buildings and stuff through the horseshoe. It looks sweet. The scoreboard, it doesn't even look real, how big it is."
But the stadium, with its basketball court-sized scoreboard, is real. Tow-Arnett and his teammates play seven games in the nearly $290 million stadium this year, including the home opener with Air Force and an Oct. 3 date with archrival Wisconsin.
University officials began looking into a new stadium in 2003, when discussion accelerated that the professional Minnesota Twins baseball and Minnesota Vikings football teams wanted to leave the downtown Metrodome.
The Twins will play in a new stadium on the west side of downtown Minneapolis beginning next year and the Vikings are looking for a new home, or a way to renovate the Metrodome.
One university goal was to bring football back to campus.
For 57 years, Gopher football was played at Memorial Stadium, which could hold more than 60,000 fans, across the street from where the new stadium stands. From 1982 until last year, the team played in the 60,000-seat Dome, not far from their new home, which features more than 50,000 seats and the infrastructure to add another 30,000 if needed in coming years.
Players are looking forward to their first game.
"Playing in the new stadium is a bonus," said center Trey Davis of Farmington, Minn. "I'm excited."
Sounding like Twins baseball players, the 6-foot-2, 276-pounder said that one of the key points of the stadium is playing the game outside again.
Still, even the first Big Ten Conference stadium built since 1960 does not make the team, Davis added.
"A stadium is a stadium," the sophomore said. "It is exciting that we have this brand new, one of the finest, stadiums in the nation. At the end of the day, it just comes down to how well prepared are you for your game."
Even the Minnesota cold does not worry Tow-Arnett and Davis.
"They have heaters and stuff," Tow-Arnett said.
Sure, the constant Dome weather is predictable, Davis said, but "once you start playing you are warm and you are ready to go."
The stadium is pretty much ready to go, too. Workers are installing bricks along walls near the playing field, a last-minute addition thanks to an anonymous donor, and doing other finishing work.
The team plays a scrimmage for season ticket holders and students on Aug. 22 as the stadium's first test.
Most fans who do not already have tickets will not be able to see games in person. Every game technically is sold out, although visiting teams may return tickets that go on sale the Monday before a game. Also, a few 19-person suites are available with prices ranging from $4,250 to $8,500 per game.
An even rarer ticket is to the Gopher locker room, "one of the most exciting features" of the stadium, athletics Communications Director Garry Bowman said.
The football-shaped locker room (Green Bay Packers are the only other players to dress in one shaped like that) is 60 yards by 35 yards. It features 120 cherry-wood lockers and is the largest college or professional locker room.
Those who manage to get game tickets will be closer to the field than they were in the Metrodome, with plenty of information available.
The scoreboard, the third largest in college football, is operated in what looks like a television network control room behind the pressroom. Even the secondary scoreboard is bigger than any in the Metrodome.
The field itself features an artificial turf of a newer generation than in the Dome, Bowman said. It is safer for players and faster than where the Gophers used to play.
The goal of the Gopher stadium was to mimic old-time fields. Bricks, arches and other style features help that along.
"We want to feel like an old stadium with the modern amenities," Bowman said.
TCF Bank Stadium facts:
- Each of Minnesota's 87 counties is named on its own plaque outside the stadium.
- The university marching band has space, including rehearsal rooms, inside the stadium, the first time it has had a dedicated home.
- The Legislature approved building the stadium in 2006 and construction started the following June.
- The brick facade and arches resemble those in Memorial Stadium, which was the Gophers' home for 57 years.
- About 97 percent of the 8,800 tons of steel used in the stadium was recycled.
- There are 9,185 block "M" letters throughout the stadium.
- The sound system features 799 speakers and uses up to 329,400 watts of power.
- State taxpayers fund $137 million of the nearly $290 million stadium construction costs.
- TCF Financial paid $35 million for naming rights, while the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community gave a $12.5 million gift, with Target, Dairy Queen and Best Buy each donating at least $2 million.

An anti abortion protest against Irish leader Enda Kenny fizzled badly at Boston College where he delivered the commencement address on Monday and received an honorary degree.
Only a few dozen protesters appeared, some playing bagpipes. Organizers had hoped that hundreds would come and protest Kenny who is set to introduce Ireland's first abortion law since 1861 after the Supreme Court ruled that the life of the mother had to be safeguarded in unique circumstances.
Cardinal Sean O'Malley had boycotted the ceremonies after Kenny's bill was introduced in parliament.
Excerpts of Kenny's speech, which was greeted with a standing ovation are included below.
"I'm honored to speak here today and be admitted to the distinguished ranks of the alumni of Boston College. Your invitation signals the enduring kindness and affection between our peoples. It symbolises the bond of 'hope and history' between two nations either side of the Atlantic.
"In your kind invitation to me, know that you honour all the generations of Irish people."
The Taoiseach said of the graduating students: "Here today, are men and women who will go on to be leaders of corporations, communities, countries. You will lead, rooted in the values of your families, your faith and this great university."
"Those, privileged to lead this, or any other democracy, will do so not as Catholic or Protestant or Dissenter, but as men and women guided by and beholden to nothing but the law, the Constitution and above all, the people. All the people. Of all faiths. And none. You will do so without fear or favour because your God, your personal faith, will sustain you. Constant, immutable, they are, and will always be, with you. Keep them close and you will never face your public decisions, your challenges, your difficulties, alone."
"Today, you sit beside each other, in happiness, great joy. One day, you may cross cities, time zones, oceans, to sit beside each other again, in very different circumstances. As you do, make sure to pack this old advice. That it matters less what happens to us, than how we deal with it. That, in life, we can allow our experience to strengthen us or diminish us. The choice is ours. As graduates of Boston College, I know what yours will be."
Referring to the recent attack on the Patriots' Day Boston Marathon, the Taoiseach said:
"In this city, strength is your default position. The hurt of the Boston Marathon attack is still palpable, but the people of this great city have responded with their usual courage, dignity and compassion."
Concluding, the Taoiseach said:"Today, the future you long imagined is here. I urge you to take possession and quickly. Because to you and your generation the torch has been passed. You are young America. And while in our world, we might astonish ourselves, to hunt and even find the God particle, to look to set up outposts on Mars, as human, our needs are fragile as ever – food, water, air. Compassion, peace, love, hope."
"Soon, graduates we must leave those needs, our planet, our future in your hands. Be successful, be well, be happy. Above all, be yourselves. Live long and deep and comfortably in your own skin. And as you do, know that from this day, like the rivers that have carved their way across this great country, so will your lives, your endeavours, your achievements carve their way into the story of America.
"Go beyond what's reliable. Look out beyond America. Be unlimited in your vision. See what respect and understanding can do for us. We who are merely an episode in the story of humanity.
"Graduates, this is your time. Be not afraid. Today, then, you have reached what we call in Irish Ceann Scríbe. Turas amháin déanta, turas eile ás bhúr gcomhair amach.One journey completed, another directly ahead. As you end and begin those journeys, I wish you Godspeed, fair winds and gift you the advice of our Nobel Laureate, Seamus Heaney.
"'When they make the circle wide, it's time to swim out on your own and fill the element with signatures on your own frequency, echo soundings, searches, probes, allurements,elver-gleams in the dark of the whole sea'."

"I've personally had a relationship with Dixon Phone Place for 6 years and have had indirect contact with the company for over 20 years. I worked for another agency that used Dixon Phone Place and that agency had a great working relationship with the company. When I became Director of 911 for the city of Lawrence and needed headset components, I reached out for Juli's contact information. Juli is wonderful. Her customer service, follow up, and follow through is superb! I would not use any other company for headset components. One of the main reasons is due to the personalized customer service that has been provided to me over the years. "
" I have use this company for several years now and have to say it is one of the best companies I've had to do repair work at my restaurant very few if any callbacks and the owner is very fair and understanding to the needs of the restaurant and if you call them they will ask what type of equipment needs you have model number serial number if you can give it to them and they will try and diagnose what parts they will need over the phone so when they come to the restaurant they are fully prepared . You will put them at the top of your vendors list want to use them "
