It doesn't rain on June 21 in Fresno — at all
Plan your picnic Friday, you live in Fresno. It's a good bet you won't see rain at Woodward Park or anyplace else in the city.
Since weather record-keeping began in the late 1870s, Fresno has never seen rain on June 21.
But that's not the most interesting part of this trivia. According to the records, June 21 is the only rainless day of the year in Fresno.
In other words, all the torrid, parched days of July and August have seen at least some kind of rain in the last 130 years or so.
"Rain is pretty unusual in the summer for the San Joaquin Valley," said meteorologist Paul Iniguez of the weather service in Hanford. "But we've recorded at least a trace on every day of the season in Fresno, except June 21."
Iniguez said next month — July — is particularly dry in the Valley. He said there have only been three days since the 1870s when Fresno got more than .10 of an inch of rain. The amounts of rain were .14 of an inch in 1925, .22 in 1992 and .33 in 1913.
"The Valley has a very Mediterranean climate," he said. "Summers are typically very dry."
By the way, Friday is the first full day of summer. The solstice happens at 10:04 p.m. Thursday.

Texas Police Officer, Bystander Killed in Shootout
(BELLAIRE, Texas) -- A police officer and a bystander are dead in Bellaire, Texas, near Houston, after a gunfight that followed a chase.
The incident began when the officer attempted to pull over the unidentified male suspect Monday morning. It was then, authorities said, that the suspect hit another car and tried to escape. The chase ended in a nearby parking lot where the officer approached the vehicle. That's when the suspect pulled a gun and began shooting, witnesses said, according to ABC News affiliate KTRK.
"He was struggling with him and he was telling him to get out and when he went to reach, all you saw was an arm and a gun, and I'm like, 'Are you serious. You're going to take out a gun on a cop?' And he shot the guy," said witness Milton Navarette.
A bystander was also fatally shot.
The suspect is also believed to have been shot. He is hospitalized in critical condition, and is expected to survive.
The identities of those involved were not immediately released.

Colony Collapse

I'm sorry for your loss, she was a beautiful chicken!... and bee colony collapse is becoming an epidemic, scarey. I don't think people realize how important they are.

Oh Beverly, I have been reading about colony collapse. What a frightening phenomenon for the planet. Very sorry for all your losses.

Sorry to about the bees and you are so correct it is something that we all need to be concerned about. NO INSECTICIDES!!

- Maura @ Lilac Lane Cottage said...
Bev I'm so sorry to read about Eileen. Who'd have thought that a chicken could win hearts...but they can and do and it always hurts to loose them. I'm shocked that you have lost all but one of your hives...what a terrible thing to discover! I'm not sure if you know this but we have bees living in our corn crib wall. This past winter when hubby opened the door to the old building he found all kinds of dead bees on the floor. We thought at first we had lost them all but now we see them flying around the crib and at the water trough..thank goodness! If we feel bad for our bees and we're not even managing them I can understand how you feel. I hope today is a sunny warm one for you...that always seems to lift the spirit. Take care.

So sorry for all your losses this week. We are relatively new to this journey and are starting with chickens this spring and I'm attending a beekeeping class next week. My nephew's wife is a researcher at U of Illinois studying bees. The last time I talked to her she was sounding pretty discouraged.

Very sorry about your bees and dear Eileen...I think I know how you must feel...Just give the remaing bees and chickens a little extra TLC...very sad

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear about your hen and certainly your bees. You'd think if we can send a man to the moon, we could figure out what's causing CC. Bees are ssoooo important!
- April 26, 2011 at 9:20 AM
- Kim said...
So sorry about your favorite chicken. I too found a dead one in the coop last week. You just have to wonder what happened.
And sorry about the bees too. I hope you will be able to build the colonies back up. In agriculture, we must live with the things that we can't live without. Bees are one of those things.
- April 26, 2011 at 9:56 AM
- Mallory said...
So sorry about your chicken...I wonder what could have happened to the poor thing? :(
And too bad about your bees. That must have been so disheartening to find them all gone! Hopefully with your next try thing will go better!

I will sing for your bees, as I sing for all of the bees who are going away. (I think they are working on filling the green cheese moon full of honey, personally)
I am sad for your losses! <3

I am so sorry, how devestating! It is getting harder and harder to keep our wonderful bees around. I am also sorry to hear about your hen! I can see if that day ever comes...how hard it will be.

- Julie Harward said...
Sorry about these losses. Isn't it funny how we can fall in love with a chicken! I found one of my sweet old hens dead sitting on a nest..sad.

- Farm Girl said...
I am sorry about your sweet little hen but I know how devastating the bee hive collapse is, The same thing happened to us only ours just left taking everything in the hive, brood everything and left it as clean as the day I put them in the hive. I still am sick about it. Nothing harder than lifting that that lid. I am so sorry as you had eight.
- April 26, 2011 at 12:19 PM
- Mimi said...
This is so sad, but you do take your lumps well, I must say. They chicken made me snifle, but the bees really set me over. I am so in love with insects so this really struck home. I'm sorry for both your losses.

- Stacy said...
So sorry about Eileen and your bees. I have chickens and bees. I know the seriousness and pain of your loss. I wish more people understood how dangerous those "certain" chemicals are.
- April 26, 2011 at 6:13 PM
- Kelly said...
So sorry to hear about your hen. Ours are all around 3 yrs old and we occasionally go in and find one dead. It is so sad to loose the ladies. The loss of the bees was just too much to deal with for me. I think we lost ours to Maine winters. When will we learn that our lives are linked to this lovely little creature? If they can't take the chemicals, niether can we. Take note. Glad that you plan to restock your hives. They are beautiful. Oh, the bees and hives.
- April 26, 2011 at 6:20 PM
My sympathies on your losses. It's never easy, and when they come so closely together it seems even harder, like the world is ganging up on us. I'm so glad to know you haven't given up on your bees.
- April 26, 2011 at 7:33 PM
- Paradise Found Farmgirl said...
Sorry about your bees and your sweet little hen Bev.
I cringe as I walk by the insecticide aisle at the local hardware store. The bees don't stand a chance-and either do we. As long as having a bug and weed free lawn is more important than the thought of spreading poison.
- April 26, 2011 at 8:56 PM
- Cindy said...
I am sorry about your chicken and the bees. How awful. My son will be getting his bees in the mail soon and bringing them out to our place. I hope they do all right, but we also have a farmer behind us that plants corn/soybeans and sprays. Urrr...
- April 26, 2011 at 9:02 PM
- WeldrBrat said...
And I was looking so forward to updates on both for this year. I am so sorry. But you know - the insecticide suspicion makes so much sense. We have a neighbor (full of oats, if you get my drift) that may have used something in the soy he planted in 2009. It fried. His last two tries of something, afterward, have failed before we could even tell what it was. And we haven't seen a honeybee since then. The clover on our 10 acres was so loaded with bees, enough that we couldn't wear flip-flops - until then.
- April 26, 2011 at 9:31 PM
- Cindy Caudle said...
Sorry to hear about the loss of your sweet Eileen. It's hard when we lose our pets. Good luck your new bees. I few bee keeper around our town have lost hives. I miss seeing the bee visiting my flowers.

Ibrox side Rangers and Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with the Hibernian forward.
Hibernian forward Jason Cummings has told The Scotsman that he does not plan to leave in the summer transfer window.
The 20-year-old has been on the books of Hibernian his entire professional career so far and has a contract until June 2017.
The Scotland Under-21 international was in brilliant form this past season and scored as many as 25 goals. Cummings also helped Hibernian win the Scottish Cup.
The youngster is one of the most promising young forwards in Scotland and has been linked with a move away from Hibernian in the summer transfer window.
Cummings, though, has made it clear that he does not want to leave Hibs, and that he wants to play in the Europa League with the Edinburgh club next season.
"We're in Europe next season which I would love to be part of," the youngster told The Scotsman. "I'm contracted to Hibs for another year, so I'll be ready to go back into Hibs next season.
"I'm not going to think about much, I'm going to go on my holidays and enjoy my time off and whatever happens, happens."
Interested clubs
Cummings is reportedly being monitored by clubs both in Scotland and in England.
According to a recent report in The Sunday Post, Ibrox side and Scottish Premiership-bound Rangers want to sign the 20-year-old forward.
The Express & Star reported earlier this month that Championship outfit Wolverhampton Wanderers are interested in securing the services of Cummings in the summer transfer window.

(TSXV:AT) ("AcuityAds" or "Company"), a leading provider of targeted digital media solutions, enabling advertisers to connect intelligently with their audiences across online display, video, social and mobile campaigns, is pleased to announce that the Company has received a cash refund of approximately $900,000 from the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") for Investment Tax Credits ("ITC") relating to eligible Scientific Research and Experimental Development ("SR&ED") claims for the years 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014.
As previously reported in the Company's Q2 2014 Financial Results on August 26th, 2014, the CRA had disallowed the Company's SR&ED claims for 2011 and 2012. With the assistance of the Company's professional advisors, a majority of the Company's SR&ED claims for the years above were reviewed and accepted by the CRA.
"The SR&ED Program is an important federal tax incentive program that enables Canadian companies to develop cutting edge technologies and we are very pleased that the CRA has recognized AcuityAds efforts and approved these credits in our favor," stated David Andrews, CFO of AcuityAds. "These types of incentives are very important in the development of AcuityAds' world class technology, which is now being used by companies around the globe."
The $900,000 refund will be offset against the Investment Tax Credit receivable of $450,000 recorded in previous years and the remainder will be accounted for as a reduction of the related expenditures in the Company's statement of income.

Constructive criticism is always appreciated, along with your thoughts and personal opinions on the bikes and products we have tested.
I like the inner shields that are coming in helmets but I wear glasses, any idea if they will interfere?
Depends on the size of your glasses. Big honkin' lenses or wide frames might interfere - but then, you'll have trouble gettin' those glasses on under a helmet in the first place.
On the EXO I tried on - my biggest problem was getting the earpiece back-alongside my head. I've got Marchon frames that use this tiny titanium wire for the earpiece, and the liner and padding interfered with it properly "seating" behind my ear. Even with the cheekpads deflated.
Also, I didn't have the near-$450 they were asking for the helmet at the time I tried it on.
They can have my Arai when they pry it from my cold, dead.....
I tried one on at the IMS, and it's a nice hat, but it doesn't fit my ARAI noggin.
Neither does the EXO-400 or the 700. They don't make a "long-oval" headform, yet.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- 5 women were busted in an undercover prostitution sting. Cops got several calls complaining about hookers in the area and Tuesday, they went under cover in a couple of neighborhoods North and East Knoxville.
Constant traffic and mom and pop shops keep the area around North Central Street busy all day, but it's the business that goes on at night that's the problem for locals, who are used to seeing prostitutes in the neighborhood.
"You can always tell because of the way they're walking up and down the street. They're always looking around...They're always trolling, always looking for that customer," said Rankin Restaurant owner Donna Kennedy.
Some who work in the area added, no place (or time) is off limits. John Crooks, the Marketing and Communications Director for the Emerald Youth Foundation, which is based out of an office on North Central St., said, "There have been some instances where we've had to ask them to leave the property of some of the churches we work with."
Kennedy continued, "We come in really early in the mornings, and the girls will actually be around at that time of the morning, like 3:30. And then we see them all day. I don't know when they sleep."
Tuesday police arrested 5 women all for prostitution. The warrants say each one agreed to perform oral sex with an undercover cop for money.
"I think it all stems from the drug problem. And that's the ruination of everything," added Kennedy. She said she's glad the ladies are off the street, but she knows it won't make much of a difference.
"There's always going to be 5 more to take their place."
And it's not for lack of police presence. All of the people we spoke with told us the police are constantly patrolling the area, but when there's a bust on one block, the girls just relocate to another one.

In another sign of the government's intense focus on illicit trading on Wall Street, the FBI early Friday arrested a longtime SAC Capital Advisors portfolio manager on insider-trading charges.
Federal agents took Michael Steinberg into custody at his residence on Manhattan's Upper East Side, an FBI spokesman said. More information about the charges was to be released later in the day.
Steinberg, 40, who has worked at the firm since 1997, would reportedly be the most senior of the hedge fund's employees to face charges in the government's wide-ranging investigation into insider trading.
A portfolio manager overseeing trades in technology, media and telecommunications stocks at SAC Capital's affiliate, Sigma Capital Management, Steinberg was put on leave in September, according to a source familiar with the matter.
Barry Berke, Steinberg's attorney, said his client "did absolutely nothing wrong."
"At all times, his trading decisions were based on detailed analysis as well as information that he understood had been properly obtained through the types of channels that institutional investors rely upon on a daily basis," Berke said in an emailed statement Friday morning.

Fulham FC
Liverpool FC
Craven Cottage, London
Sunday, May 12th, 2013; 15:00 Hrs GMT
Come the end of a season, spectators are usually making plans to visit their local pubs to watch do or die matches, with teams fighting tooth and nail to win the league, or fend off relegation. Cliches fly thick and fast through the air, about how every match is a final, how this is exactly when players earn their wages and how they need to give everything for the crest on their chest. Every point is crucial, they exclaim! Prepare for titanic, edge-of-the seat clashes!
Well, that may have been the story for a lot of seasons, but surely not this one. Except for one relegation spot and one Champions League spot, most teams pretty much know how this season is going to conclude for them.
And Fulham versus Liverpool is the ideal example of the somewhat anti-climactic ending this season has reached. The only possible point of motivation for Rodgers' Liverpool is the extremely slim chance that they might finish above Everton, a bubble that can be burst by Moyes' men simply by drawing the remaining two games. And the only motivation for Fulham would be a mild niggling fear of the final relegation spot, which only becomes a threat if they lose both their final games and everyone below their 12th spot position does incredibly well in the final games. While mathematically it may look to be a tenuous position, there is also an acceptance that the teams near the bottom are there for a reason, and are not likely to suddenly sprout massive amounts of talent.
A large part of the manager's job is to motivate and drive their squad. Managers like Alex Ferguson and Harry Rednapp are famous for more than compensating for any tactical shortcomings by being solid man-managers. Put the fear of God (i.e. you, the manager) in a player and he'll run till his legs fall off. Boost his ego and spirit and he gets that extra bit of sharpness and aggression that can mean so much in a football match.
But how do you motivate your squad when you've honestly got very little to play for? No soul-crushing fear of relegation, no heart-wrenching fight for the top-spot?
Martin Jol and Brendon Rodgers will, of course, make all the right noises in front of the media and the team. The team needs to finish as high up as it can. A good final position will be an important spring-board for next season. Do it for the fans, lads.
But it will all ring a tad hollow.
Team News & Tactical Brief
Fulham have been in horrible form of late, with only one point to show from their last 6 matches. Berbatov, their leading goal-scorer, hasn't found the back of the net for over a month.In fact, Fulham as a team have only scored 3 goals in the last 6 games, 2 of which have come in last weeks 2-4 loss to Reading. The starting line-up is unlikely to see a huge overhaul from last week, with the only question being which two out of Duff, Kacaniklic (that is a tough name to spell) and Emanuelson will take the 2 wide positions. The Duff- Emanuelson combination seems most likely, with Duff having some much needed experience and crossing ability, and Emanuelson bein a slightly more consistent performer than Kacaniklic.
While Mladen Petric is back in the side after missing last weekend, expect Berbatov to lead the line with Ruiz sitting right behind him. Ruiz will be a key player for Fulham, as he is someone who can both create and score goals. With the somewhat untested partnership of Martin Skrtel and Jamie Carragher at Liverpool's central defence, Ruiz's movement and passing may turn out to be the key.
Another important factor may be Liverpool's somewhat questionable defending from set-pieces in recent games. Berbatov and Hangeland will make promising targets for Damien Duff's crosses.
Riise is likely to start ahead of Richardson at Left-back, being the more defensively solid of the two, while Riether should retain his Right-back spot.
Rodalegga, Kacaniklic and Richardson will provide good options for Martin Jol should his team be in need of a more attacking push towards the game's closure
Probable Starting Lineup [4-2-3-1]: Schwarzer (GK); Riether, Senderos, Hangeland, Riise; Enoh, Karagounis; Duff, Ruiz, Emanuelson; Berbatov.
On the earlier point regarding motivation, the Liverpool players will have one reason to give a solid performance: This will the first time this season that the squad will play a League game without either Gerrard (shoulder surgery), Suarez (Ivanovich-biting ban) or Agger (back-injury) in the side. This is a grand opportunity for some of the non-stars to really show what they're made of. A convincing win without this missing Holy-Trinity of Anfield will go a long way in announcing to the world that there is more to the team than meets the eye.
In the last two games, the first of Suarez's 10 match ban, Liverpool have had a 6-0 free-for-all against a poor Newcastle and a cagey 0-0 against a tight Everton. It's difficult to say which version will show up against Fulham, but one definite learning from the previous match will be that Coutinho can be a devastating passer into the final third when he takes up central positions. Rodgers should take that learning and use the kid as a central attacking midfielder, with Borini and Downing manning the flanks. A fair bit of positional swapping can be expected between Borini and the centrally deployed Sturridge, with Downing being the source of width and some (mostly wayward) direct crossing.
In the center of midfield, Rodgers will have to change his approach somewhat with the absence of Gerrard. He has recently used Lucas and Stevie G as an efficient combination at the heart of the team, with Gerrard helping both defensively (especially since Lucas still isn't at his intercepting best these days) and in launching attacks via long forward balls. With Allen also out for the season, and Shelvey hardly being a top-notch performer, the central roles should be handed to Lucas and Henderson, who is enjoying a good spell of late. Hendo will be allowed to push forward at times, but will have to be more aware of his defensive responsibilities in the absence of Gerrard.
In defence, Carragher is having good run of games in his final season pre-retirement, but his pairing with Skrtel doesn't really exhude confidence. Enrique, and Johnson will take up their usual roles, while Rodgers will hope Reina isn't distracted by the rumors linking him to Barcelona.
Along with Shelvey, the bench will also be warmed by Suso and Sterling (remember them?).
Probable Starting Lineup [4-2-3-1]: Reina (GK); Johnson, Carragher, Skrtel, Enrique; Lucas, Henderson; Borini, Coutinho, Downing; Sturridge.
Key Facts
- Fulham have been losing at both half time and full time in their last 4 matches in the Premier League.
- Liverpool are undefeated in their last 6 matches in the Premier League.
- Fulham have lost their last 4 matches in the Premier League.
Players To Watch Out For
Dimitar Berbatov (Fulham)
The man is a magician. His list of tricks include mystifying ball-control and pulling goals out of thin air. Unfortunately for Matin Jol, he is also incredibly gifted at performing a disappearing act for as long as the full 90 minutes. The man can wow crowds with his silky touches and deft finishing, but can also frustrate fans and colleagues alike with his border-line casual approach to matches. The man is like a Bond-movie bad guy who spends most his time lounging on a vast leather sofa with a scotch and a cigar in hand, and gets up only to put a golden bullet into his enemy's head.
Only one thing is for sure, on his day, Berba is an unstoppable goal-scoring machine.
Fulham 1-1 Liverpool
In a match with little at stake, where the commentators might spend more time talking about Alex Ferguson's retirement and David Moyes' new assignment than the spectacle at hand, the only chance of a large number of goals might come if either of the defences switch-off on occasion.
Or if one of the managers really does unleash their inner man-management skills and rally their troops to a strong performance.

Disclaimer: I don't own Reaper. If I did, their would be a kick ass--in my opinion--season three coming up.
I woke up from my sleep feeling like a zombie from the movie, Night of the Living Dead. I put my left hand on my forehead and let out a light moan. How did I get such a bad headache? I thought miserably and stood up from my bed. I then walked out of the bedroom, through the living room and into the kitchen; hoping that their was still some Aspirin left in the drawer.
Once in the kitchen, I went to a drawer beside the fridge to see if an non-empty bottle of Aspirin was still there. To my great relief, there were a few still inside. Just as I was about to open it, I saw something move from the corner of my eye. I turned my head to the kitchen table to see a man with sandy blond hair, a white collared shirt, and a tie. He had a rifle strapped to his back by a black leather band and was sitting at the table, eating Sock's sacred cereal.
It felt like all the blood in my body drained. "Seth! What the hell are you doing here?" I asked him in a hushed tone, trying not to wake up anyone that was still asleep.
He looked up as he continued to eat Sock's cereal. "I was hungry," he answered simply as he put the spoon into his mouth.
I narrowed my eyes with irritation. "Yeah? Well, Nina's here. And if she sees you she might just decide that it would be a better idea to kill me than to let me live!" I said as softly as I could.
Seth rolled his eyes as he put the spoon into his half-full bowl. "No she won't. She and her little demon friends think that you have an other purpose. Remember?" he said then put his pinky finger up in a term of mockery. "Idiots," he sneered then started to eat Sock's cereal again.
I felt my mouth quiver, but didn't know what to say back to him. I gawked at him for a few seconds until I heard footsteps coming our way. "Come on, you have to leave!" I yelped at him.
Seth snorted. "It's not Nina," he replied calmly.
He was right. I turned my head to the living room and saw Sock walking towards us. I bit the inside of my cheek hard as I watched him come into the kitchen with us and stare wide-eyed at Seth. The man eating with a gun, eating his cereal.
Sock looked between me and Seth for a moment. "Who is that, why does he have a gun and why is he eating my cereal?" he asked me in a shaky voice.
I opened my mouth to answer him but- "I'm Seth," Seth told him. "I have my rifle with me because it's a necessity of mine. Don't worry though; I won't use it on you. And I'm eating this cereal because Sam said I could," he told him smoothly, lying at the last part, and maybe even the part before that.
Sock looked at me, his face completely red. "Why did you do that Sam?! You know that I don't like other people eating my cereal!!" he shouted then stormed off out of the kitchen.
I glowered at Seth, who just looked back at me with a mischievous, and slightly crazy, grin then tapped this temple with his left index finger. "You have to be quick if you don't want to get into trouble," he said then drank the remaining milk that was in the cereal bowl. "That's your first lesson," he said, stood up, walked over to the sink and put the bowl into it.
"What is that suppose to mean?" I asked him. Seth turned around so he was facing me, he had a smirk plastered on his face.
"It means that when I'm forcefully done with you, everyone up-stairs and down-stairs is going to refer to you as Loki," he told me, with determined eyes. "Or LJ."
Once I was at work at seven, Seth seemed to disintegrate into the air. Which I was thankful for; it felt like he was a stalker. The thought of it only made my head hurt even worse.
Now I can finally tell Sock and Ben what is going on. I thought as I walked into the locker room to put my ugly blue apron on.
When I came into the room I saw that they were in there too, in front of their lockers. When Sock saw me he snorted. "Come to steal some more of my cereal?" he asked me arrogantly.
I rolled my eyes as I went up to my own locker and opened it up. "I didn't tell him he could have your cereal," I told him. "When I woke up and went into the kitchen I saw him there already eating it," I said to him sincerely.
Sock rolled his eyes too then sighed. "Okay, I believe you," he said and slammed his locker shut. "Who is he anyway? I know is name is Seth, but who is he?" he asked me.
I bit my lip and tried to think of the best way to tell them who he was. "He's one of the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, like Taylor," I replied to him. "He's the first one. Conquest," I said.
Ben gave me a puzzled look. "What does conquest mean?" he asked.
"Taking over other countries," I replied, remembering Seth explaining to me what it was a few nights ago.
"I thought they could only come into you in your dreams," Sock said.
I shrugged my shoulders. "Apparently not," I said as I put my apron on. "And unlike Taylor he's… more stalker-ish," I said and slammed my locker shut as well.
"Ouch. That really hurts my feelings," I heard Seth's voice say behind me. I jumped and turned around, but didn't see anyone behind me. I looked at Ben and Sock.
"Did you hear that?" I asked them. They looked at me with confused expressions.
Sock shook his head. "No," he said then sniffed his shirt sleeve. "Yuck. I'm going to have to wash this shirt. Eventually."
I hate double shifts. I thought sourly as I did the last of the closing arrangements. At least I don't have the graveyard shift again. I shivered at the memory of counting everything in the store as punishment for Sock and I throwing something at a customer.
When I was finally done I put my apron into my locker and met Sock and Ben over at the exit doors. "Are you going to ride with Sock again?" I asked Ben as we all started to walk down the parking lot.
Ben shrugged his shoulders. "I guess," he replied.
My car came up first. I walked to it and gave them a short wave of 'see you in a bit', and sat in the driver's seat. Once I started to drive out of the parking lot I heard- "So, how was your day?" beside me. I took a quick glance to my right and saw Seth sitting in the passenger's seat of my car.
I groaned. "What are you doing here?" I asked him.
"So that's what I get for not being around for 16 hours? Nice Sam. Now you really have hurt my feelings," he said sarcastically.
I continued to stare at the windshield, as I made a right to get out of the parking lot. "Are you a stalker or something?" I asked him.
Seth paused for a moment. "In modern terms I suppose," he replied.
There was a few minutes of silences. I was actually surprised that he stayed in the car the whole time. If he were the Devil, he would have left ages ago. Maybe he wasn't lying about being bored, I thought.
After awhile Seth finally broke the silence. "The Bargain Bench will not be reopening its doors," he said in an as-a-matter-of-fact way.
I cocked an eyebrow. "Why?" I asked.
He chuckled lightly. "It was one of the many things I was busy with today," he replied mischievously.
It was nice to finally be at the house. I could sleep and finally be away from Seth. That is if he doesn't go into your dreams, a little voice reminded in the back of my head.
I didn't bother check to see if Seth followed me into the house, or if he just disappeared. Once I was in the house I went straight to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. Once I was done, I went into the bedroom, threw on some PJs, fell onto my bed, and closed my eyes.
The next thing I knew I was on the ceiling. Not literally though. It was almost like one of those out of body experiences that people talk about on TV sometimes. I could see myself down below me, sleeping.
I don't now how long I was just floating there. But after awhile I saw an inky-black haired man walk up to my sleeping body. He looked around the room, like he was checking to see if anyone else was with him then pulled out a thick note book and started to write something into it.
"So you decided to come in person this time?" I heard a man's voice say, then all the sudden a dark brown haired man materialized beside the other man. The black haired man bared his teeth at him as he slammed his notebook shut.
"I didn't think you'd come here so soon," the black haired man said, his voice would have made the hair stand up on my neck if I was awake.
The brunette, who seemed to have a white glow on his skin, sighed and looked at my sleeping body. "You know there are alternatives Zachary," he said to the black haired man.
The black haired man, Zachary, rolled his eyes. "I've already tried a few," he said bitterly. "Two things come to mind-" he said but was cut off.
"So you gave up?" The brown haired man said in a questioning tone.
Zachary shrugged his shoulders. "No. I've just gone back to what is native to me," he said with an evil grin.
The brown haired man narrowed his eyes. "God wants Sam alive. And it's my job to make sure that he stays that way," he said to him.
"I don't care what God wants," Zachary replied with a sneer. "I'm going to kill Sam one way or another, and you can watch me do it," he said then disappeared.
The brown haired man grunted. After a few moments he put on a confused face then looked up to the ceiling where I was.
I woke up with a gasp, and scanned the room. It was just a nightmare, I told myself and took a deep breath. It couldn't have been real, whenever I have a real dream here is always a fog over my eyes at first, I thought to myself.
But that was when Taylor or Seth brought your conscious somewhere, the little voice in the back of my head said to me. This time you did it on your own, Samuel…

Classy move by the Giants Saturay having Vinny DiTrani of The Record of Bergen County, N.J., announce their fifth-round draft pick.
DiTrani has covered the team since the mid-1970s, and was nicknamed The Sage by Bill Parcells in the '80s.
DiTrani is scheduled to retire after the season, so the Giants honored him during his final draft.
I spent 10 years listening to the guy criticize most of the Giants' picks on draft day. Highly amusing that he now has actually made a one for them.
Fortunately, Vinny got a fairly easy name: Mitch Petrus. Fitting that he's a guard. Vinny always was the only one who knew who the guards were on draft day.

The strata in Figure 1:1 show a relatively small segment of rock. Figure 1:1 also shows four fossils--a one-toed horse, a frog, a trilobite, and a coral.
While the one-toed horse (genus Equus) dates from less than 5 million years ago (Ma), the coral could be Cambrian (>500 Ma). This makes a several meter outcrop of rock appear to show a half-billion years of rock deposition. While there are certainly gaps (unconformities) of this much time, what one would tend to see would be the old corals set right below the younger horse, without trilobites and frogs in between.
Figure 1:1, therefore, is misleading in that it suggests a very long span of geologic time can be shown in a few layers on the side of a cliff. This might be a tenet of Young Earth Creationism, but geologists would tend not to find such a range of fossils in such a short succession of strata.
Explore Evolution claims:
Another problem is that fossils don't always appear in the order they're predicted to.Explore Evolution, p. 27
This is blatantly false. In fact, fossils show a great uniformity in terms of their stratigraphic position in rock outcrops. In every case where, for example, an older fossils is set stratigraphically above a younger fossils, this can be explained by features such as reverse faulting.
The fossil record seemed to show a trend from simple to complex.Explore Evolution, p. 17
Complexity in organisms can be subjective. In many ways, fossils from the middle Cambrian show features as complicated as modern animals: eyes, teeth, claws, digestive tracts, articulated limbs, exoskeletons. While we can discern an increase in brain size and complex behaviors in our own species as it evolved from earlier hominids, complexity in body design is more problematic.
Explore Evolution says:
Textbooks also frequently fail to mention that the different skeletons shown in transitional sequences (including the mammal-like reptiles) were not found close together geologically.Explore Evolution, p. 27
The problem with this idea is the definition of "close." To a Young Earth creationist, close might mean hundreds or perhaps thousands of years. To a geologist or paleontologist, gaps of tens of millions of years are commonplace.
To give you an idea of the scale gaps involved, let's examine the layers (stratigraphy) of the Grand Canyon. The oldest rocks of the Grand Canyon, called the Vishnu Schist, began forming about 2 Ga (billion years ago) as marine sediment that was then metamorphosed and intruded by the younger Zoroaster Granite. All this completed by about 1.7 Ga.
The next sequence of rocks in the Grand Canyon, the Grand Canyon Supergroup, is a set of highly-tilted sediments deposited between 1.2 and 0.8 Ga.
The third sequence involves the relatively younger, flat-lying rocks that make up the majority of what one sees in the Grand Canyon's cliffs. These were deposited between ~500 Ma to ~250 Ma.
To summarize:
|Age Range
|Time Gap
|Upper Sequence
|500-250 Ma
|250 Ma missing above, 300 Ma missing below
|Grand Canyon Supergroup
|1.2 - 0.8 Ga
|300 Ma missing above, 500 Ma missing below
|Vishnu Schist
|2.0-1.7 Ga
|500 Ma missing above
These kinds of sequences--where more time is missing than is shown--are common in the rocks of the world. Geologists call these gaps "unconformities"; unconformities are so common that it is rare to find a continuous, uninterrupted sequence of rock. Therefore, to argue that fossil finds not being "close together geologically" is evidence against them is to misunderstand the nature of how rock layers are actually deposited.
Explore Evolution goes on to quote Henry Gee:
As zoologist Henry Gee writes, referring to fossil vertebrates in general, "The intervals of time that separate the fossils are so huge that we cannot say anything definite about their possible connection through ancestry and descent."Explore Evolution, p. 29
Gee's full quote is:
It is impossible to know, for certain, that the fossil I hold in my hand [found at LO5] is my lineal ancestor. Even if it really was my ancestor, I could never know this unless every generation between the fossil and me had preserved some record of its existence and its pedigree…It might have been, but we can never know this for certain… We cannot know if the fossil found at LO5 was the lineal ancestor of the specimens found at Olduvai Gorge or Koobi Fora. It might have been, but we can never know this for certain. The intervals of time that separate the fossils are so huge that we cannot say anything definite about their possible connection through ancestry and descent.Henry Gee, 1999, In Search of Deep Time 068485421x, p. 22-23
Gee was therefore not, as Explore Evolution claims, talking about fossils in general, but about a specific hominid tooth, which he recognized to have some relationship to his own species. The real doubt in his mind was exactly how direct the connection was. Moreover, Gee explains that the only way he could know for sure would be to have some preserved record of the entire family sequence, and he recognizes that this would be an unreasonable standard of evidence.
Gee makes a broader point, which he summarizes as:
The disconnection and isolation of events worsens further as centuries turn into millennia, tens of millennia, and finally into millions of years: intervals so vast that they dwarf the events within them… This is geological time, far beyond everyday human experience.Henry Gee, 1999, In Search of Deep Time, 068485421x, p. 26
Gee is correct to point out that the fossil record does not contain an exact, year-by-year sequence of evidence, which is how most people think of time. By acknowledging his personal connection to the hominid tooth he is discussing, Gee posits that despite the gaps in time, we may still understand relationships between fossils, even if "we cannot say anything definite."
Page 23 is a sidebar showing "Biological Classification." The page correctly points out that the most fundamental taxonomic split of organisms is into the three domains: Bacteria, Archaea, Eukaryota. Of these domains, Explore Evolution says, "Each of these has a fundamentally different cell structure."
While true, this is only half the story--the most important differences are genetic, not morphological. In fact, bacteria and archaea have such a close superficial resemblance that for a long time they were not distinguished into different domains.
The 3 Domains model is relatively new; it was proposed by Carl Woese in 1990. (Woese C, Kandler O, Wheelis M (1990). "Towards a natural system of organisms: proposal for the domains Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya.". Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 87 (12): 4576–9.)
Chapter 3 is replete with "weasel words" --phrases that imply something without explicitly stating it, that make statements without backing, that cite sources without naming those sources.
The type of weasel word most commonly used in Explore Evolution involves making statements attributed to "some scientists" or "some critics." In almost every case, Explore Evolution does not name who these critics are. Even when Explore Evolution does cite a scientist, as in the case of Paul Chien (as discussed at length here ), Explore Evolution misrepresents his credentials, calling him a "paleobiologist," a description that does not match his education, research, or publications.
"Some critics" think Explore Evolution is, according to "some sources," a work of fraud that can be debunked simply by looking at its language. You might want to know who these sources and critics are--but if I refuse to identify them, you cannot verify that I have represented their positions correctly. I could be lying. I could have made up the sources. I could have used real sources but used them incorrectly. Science needs a mechanism for checking sources.
A few examples from Explore Evolution, with weasel words italicized:
p. 20: "Recently, some scientists think they have discovered a transitional fossil sequence…"
p. 20: "[unnamed] Paleontologists have identified many gaps…"
p. 21: "[unnamed] Advocates of Common Descent also point out…"
p. 22: "Most critics of the fossil succession argument agree…"
p. 22: "For this reason, many scientists think…"
p. 24: "Critics of the fossil succession argument point out…"
p. 24: "As a result, critics say the pattern of fossil appearances does not support Darwin's picture…"
p. 26: "Critics of fossil succession point to a second feature…"
p. 26: "No, say the critics…"
p. 26: "In much the same way, critics point out…"
p. 27: "For this reason, critics argue that Darwin's theory…"
p. 27: "In the overwhelming majority of cases, Common Descent does not match the evidence…"
p. 27: "Scientific critics of the Fossil Succession…"
p. 27: "Some critics are unpersuaded…"
p. 27: "Given the millions of different fossil forms in the fossil record, critics argue…"
p. 27: "Some textbooks alter the scale of pictures…"
p. 30: "Many paleontologists would argue…"
p. 31: "Critics agree that…"
p. 33: "And that's the dilemma, say the critics."
p. 34: "Critics of both argue…"
p. 34: "We have seen that scientists disagree over how to interpret…"
p. 35: "For example, some scientists say…"
p. 35: "Even so, some advocates of punctuated equilibrium…"
Explore Evolution seems afraid to name specific sources for its information, and with good reason.

Learning Irish
Irish is one of Ireland's two official languages, the other being English. The term for the language in Irish is Gaeilge and it is also sometimes known in the English language as Gaelic. For centuries, Irish was the most widely spoken language in Ireland. However, its use declined significantly during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and English came to replace it as Ireland's most widely spoken language.
While most Irish people today do not speak Irish fluently, the language is recognised as being central to Irish identify and culture. Most placenames in Ireland have their origins in Irish. There is an Irish language television station, TG4, as well as an Irish language radio station, Radió na Gaeltacht. Irish is spoken in Northern Ireland as well as in the Republic of Ireland and it is related to a number of other languages, for example Scots Gaelic, which is spoken in parts of Scotland. Irish was recently recognised as an official working language of the European Union.
Today, special recognition is given to areas where Irish is still, or was until recently, the main community language. These areas are known as Gaeltachtaí or the Gaeltacht and are situated mainly on the western seaboard. The largest Gaeltachtaí areas are in counties Donegal, Galway and Kerry.
Irish is taught at all stages in Irish primary and secondary schools. There are also a growing number of schools throughout Ireland in which Irish is the main language of the school. These are known as Gaelscoileanna. There are also many opportunities for adults to learn Irish. In order to learn more about these opportunities or about the Irish language, you may wish to contact Foras na Gaeilge at 1850 325 325 or www.gaeilge.ie; alternatively you can visit the website of the Irish language and cultural group Conradh na Gaeilge at www.cnag.ie.

2004 Honda Accord 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 72000 miles
2 and 1/2 months ago I had my 70K mile schuduled maintence at the auto dealer. I noticed afterward that a warning light, "Maintence Required" would blink 3 or 4 times then disappear. I called the dealer and explained what the warning light was, and he said not to worry, that is comes on every time I start the car. Now that warning light comes on and stays on, the entire time I'm driving.
Do I need to get my car looked at again? I'm 1 and 1/2 hours away from the dealer, and am really worried about driving my car just locally, let alone on the highway. I just don't want to cause more damage to the car.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer.
have the same problem?

Miguel Sabah is the flavour of the month in Mexico. In the space of a few short months the Morelia Monarcas striker has gone from being an eternal promise to the finished article, securing a place for himself in the national side in the process.
The scorer of a vital winner in a South Africa 2010 qualifier against the USA, Sabah was on international duty again earlier this month, helping El Tri to a precious 1-0 defeat of Honduras at the Estadio Azteca.
Barely an hour after the final whistle, while the reporters covering the game were busy packing away their things, the victorious Mexico players began to file out of the changing rooms en route to their waiting cars. All of them except one that is. Making a beeline down the tunnel and straight for the journalists was none other than Sabah, the nation's new hero.
The fact is I'm not thinking about Europe. My goal is to perform well for Mexico and finish top scorer in Mexico. I'm enjoying the best phase of my career and I want to live the moment.
Showing a refreshing lack of self-importance, the amiable centre-forward spoke at length with the press pack, signed autographs and posed for photos. And as night continued to fall and the stadium workers hurried about their work, the unassuming Sabah gave an exclusive and wide-ranging interview to FIFA.com.
The first topic up for discussion was Mexico's narrow but hugely important victory over a stubborn Honduras side. Though delighted with the three points, it had been a frustrating evening for the striker, who got little change out of Los Catrachos's typically uncharitable defence. "It was infuriating," he said. "They really sat back on us and when that happens, you have to try everything you can as a striker. They had a lot of people in their own half and in the box, and though it wasn't easy we kept on trying and eventually got the goal we deserved."
Sabah endured an unproductive evening in front of goal, spurning two opportunities that would have sent his stock rising even further. "In that respect I'm angry with myself because they're kind of the things that can change a game," he explained. "I'm still feeling pretty relaxed, though, because it's something all strikers experience. When we played the United States it fell to me to come on and score the winner, but tonight I had some easier chances and they didn't go in. But we did what we had to do and won, which is what counts."
Despite his fruitless 90 minutes, Sabah is determined to stay upbeat, especially having worked so hard to get where he is now. "I remember watching the World Cup in Germany, and I never thought for a minute that I'd be here experiencing something like this," he said in reference to his unlikely rise to the top, a tale that FIFA.com featured only a few weeks ago. "At that time I'd never been called up to the national squad, not even for a friendly. It was all so far away that I couldn't even picture it."
The dream comes true
When it came, the change in Sabah's fortunes was dramatic. Within a few months of watching the world's best on television he went from the sidelines to the headlines, embarking on a scoring spree that has taken him all the way to the national side.
"Things started more or less at about that time. I knew I had to make the most of my opportunity whenever it came along, and it finally did at the recent Gold Cup. I finished the tournament as top scorer and since then I've just gained in confidence."
There is little danger of Sabah taking things for granted, however, as he acknowledged in typically self-effacing style. "There are lots of talented Mexican forwards and if I stop performing well then I'll be watching the World Cup at home again."
So what was the key to the sudden change in his fortunes? "Getting regular games was essential," came the reply. "I knew I could do it. I just hadn't been able to prove it. The key was playing week in and week out, going through different experiences and scoring frequently. If you don't play, you don't score. But they gave me the opportunity and that allowed me to mature and raise my game. That was the catalyst."
With the night wearing on and the stadium staff anxious to close the press zone, Sabah found time for one final observation on his career turnaround. "I don't know if it was fair or not but it was definitely very frustrating and I had to fight hard. In the end, all that fighting has got me where I am now, and it's driving me on to stay here too."
And before the stadium doors finally slammed shut, Sabah had an enlightening confession to make. "The fact is I'm not thinking about Europe. My goal is to perform well for Mexico and finish top scorer in Mexico. I'm enjoying the best phase of my career and I want to live the moment."

Meanwhile, Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett said he is hopeful Grand Prix racing will be a reality in Oklahoma City, maybe as soon as 2012.
Senate Bill 160, the Municipal Motor Vehicle Racing Act, would allow a city or public trust to issue racing permits for street races and allow permit holders to limit access and charge admission to the race event held on public streets.
The bill's author, Sen. David Holt, R-Oklahoma City, said the bill does not make such races guaranteed, but takes legal hurdles out of the path if such an event were to happen.
"A municipality cannot issue a permit to a third party to actually charge admission for the use of public right-of-ways, i.e. streets and sidewalks," Holt said. "A city will issue a permit to someone to close down streets, but those are always for events that are open to the general public like a parade."
Holt, who was chief of staff for Cornett prior to being elected to the Senate in 2010, said the bill takes language from an existing Florida statute. Although he supports having Grand Prix racing in Oklahoma City, the decision of whether to hold a race would be entirely up to local authorities.
"(The bill) is a completely necessary aspect of having a Grand Prix," Holt said. "No one should think this legislation makes a Grand Prix happen. It creates a legal environment where it's possible."
The measure has already passed the Senate and must now go through the House of Representatives.
In late October, Oklahoma City Motorsports announced it was in the process of securing a sanctioning body and a 2012 date for a race in the city's Adventure District.
Mike McAuliffe, Oklahoma City Motorsports CEO, said at the time that a possible race route would include stretches of Martin Luther King Boulevard, N.E. 50th Street, N.E. Grand Boulevard and even a stretch through Remington Park.
A proposal in March 2010 to allow the city manager's office to negotiate with Oklahoma City Grand Prix LLC to bring the American Le Mans Series was approved by the City Council.
However, a subsequent city report stated that similar races held on streets rather than dedicated tracks have poor recurrence rates, and would be a risky financial move. The report also noted conflicts that would arise between the race and the extensive downtown renovation plan, Project 180.
The initial Grand Prix plan was shot down on Aug. 31 when the council voted 6-2 against a measure that would have fronted up to nearly $7 million in capital expenditures from the Oklahoma City Public Property Authority to Oklahoma City Grand Prix.
Cornett said the city was aware of the new bill, and that it was introduced on the city's behalf.
While he said he hopes to see a Grand Prix race downtown, conflicts with the large streetscape refurbishing of Project 180 would likely cause such an event to be located in other areas of the city for the first few years.
"We have to be sensitive to what impact a race would have," he said. "Long term, the economic impact of having a Grand Prix race and the exposure we would get would outweigh the slight inconvenience we would have."
Cornett said he sought a publicprivate partnership to replace the looming closure of the State Fair Speedway a few years ago. After being unable to secure a partner, he embraced the idea of using existing infrastructure for the underserved market of race fans.
"I think we're the right-sized market, and I think the market is ripe now — with the Thunder fully entrenched in the community — that we can add something of this size and nature," Cornett said. "It would do well in Oklahoma City if you had the right promoter."
Cornett said the earlier attempt to host a race was premature, and was not surprised it failed.
"We still have multiple parties interested in doing the race," he said. "I always felt that 2011 was a little soon when we were talking about this a year ago. It seemed this was always a little quick for an event of this magnitude."
Cornett said such an event would be a good investment and have a large impact on the local economy.
"I'm very interested, but it's got to be the reaction to the marketplace," Cornett said, adding that he would like to see a race "as soon as 2012, if I could be convinced the route is not going to interrupt normal flow of city traffic.
"If someone wanted to hold a race away from downtown in 2012, I don't think there would be a problem."
