Dallastown will need to beat nemesis Red Lion to defend district baseball title
The Dallastown baseball team isn't looking for a new approach.
Not against a team it's lost to twice this season. Not with a second straight District 3 title on the line.
And not (potentially) against a pitcher its gotten just three hits off of in those two games.
The defending District 3 Class 6A champion Wildcats will face rival Red Lion in the district semifinals Tuesday. The time and place have yet to be determined. While Dallastown (17-4) is the top seed in this year's tournament, the Wildcats have lost to the Lions (14-6) twice, both times by one run.
That doesn't mean the Wildcats are nervous.
"We'd love to play them again," Dallastown coach Greg Kinneman said after his team's 7-1 home win over J.P. McCaskey in District 3 quarterfinals Thursday. "We played two great games with them, and we're just going to attack it like we did the past two games."
Of course, one of the biggest keys of Tuesday's game will be the pitching matchup, and that's unknown right now.
In the first two matchups, Red Lion used 6-foot-6 senior and University of Kentucky commit Tyler Burchett. The flame-throwing righty — whose fastball has been clocked at 94 miles per hour — was fantastic both times in 2-1 and 1-0 victories, striking out a combined 22 batters.
While the Lions started Burchett in their 2-0 quarterfinal win over Wilson on Thursday, they will be eligible to use him again next Tuesday. The PIAA requires pitchers to have at least three days of rest after throwing between 76 and 100 pitches, and Burchett will have had four by then.
The Wildcats are well-aware what they could be up against. But that doesn't mean they think major adjustments are needed.
"I don't think a whole lot has to change. Some days you just tip the cap to the other guy, and twice he's pitched extremely well against us," Kinneman said. "Honestly, I don't know that we did anything wrong from a hitting standpoint."
Added Dallastown senior Nick Parker: "We've seen him twice so we know his stuff and we know what he's going to try to do. I try to make sure my teammates stay within themselves and not try to gear up too much against him. You have to keep the game at your pace. You might only get one run off him but you've got to control what you can control."
For their part, the Wildcats will have their own pitching decision to make Tuesday. Parker, who is 6-1 with a 0.31 ERA this season, pitched splendidly in the team's two previous losses against Red Lion. Still, the Lions also have another one of the league's best pitchers in Alex Weakland (5-0, 0.40 ERA) available.
Not surprisingly, Kinneman said he's unsure which pitcher will start in the semifinals. Parker started Thursday against J.P. McCaskey, going seven innings and allowing one unearned run on three hits while striking out seven and walking one.
"I honestly don't know who we'll throw," Kinneman said. "But we'll be prepared."
After graduating 10 seniors from last season's District 3 title team, Dallastown seems to be hitting its stride entering the postseason. Trailing 1-0 after the first inning Thursday, the Wildcats erupted for five runs in the third inning on their way to a convincing victory.
Now they just need some of that offense to carry into next week.
"(Scoring seven runs) is great for us and our attitudes because we've been scuffling a little bit toward the end of the season," Parker said. "To finally get out and get a couple days of good practice, I was expecting us to take some good swings."
The team that loses Tuesday will not be done for the season. The top three teams in District 3 Class 6A qualify for the state tournament, meaning the losers of the semifinals will meet in a third-place game next Thursday, the same day as the District 3 championship contest.

Earlier this week we learned that the Motorola DROID 4 may be launching as soon as December 8th, news which caught some folks off-guard due to the fact that the DROID 3 just made its way to market back in July. Today another leak has surfaced to add fuel to the DROID 4 rumor fire. An image sent over to Droid-Life shows that training for the D4 has begun at Verizon indirect retailers and, although the photo doesn't explicitly show December 8th as a launch date, it does suggest that the new 4G LTE slider may not be far off.
Although it'll definitely be a bit of a surprise to see Verizon launch the DROID 4 in just a couple of weeks, doing so would give Big Red a high-profile 4G LTE QWERTY smartphone heading into the holidays. The Stratosphere launched back in mid-October, but it's seen as more of a mid-range handset, and the D4 could be a good alternative for folks that are interested in a DROID RAZR but need a physical keyboard. Any of you think that you might be interested in snagging a DROID 4 as a nice little holiday gift to yourself if it does indeed launch next month?

Recently I managed to completely mess up my ASUS 900, but I have no immediate desire to upgrade since it's only my travel laptop (and I'm waiting for a few months to see if anything interesting comes out). For now, though, I've hit an interesting problem. The 4GB SSD that is soldered onto the motherboard is broken.
Since it's soldered on, there's really no hope of replacing it (I believe), so I've been solely running off the 16GB that is inserted into the mini pci-e slot. But since it can't read from the SSD it keeps giving me an error every time it tries to boot and read the ssd. Is there any way to either force Ubuntu to not check the drives on boot or disable the drive altogether, so that I don't have to sit through a 5 minute boot process each time I want to use the computer?

Work on bridge between Nashua, Merrimack begins
A roughly $2 million project to replace the Manchester Street Bridge between Nashua and Merrimack started this week, closing the crossing over Pennichuck Brook for at least the next year.
Work started Monday to install a new bridge with a sidewalk, wider design and improved drainage. The project is largely being funded by the state, and is expected to wrap up in 2015.
Replacing the bridge has been on the city’s agenda since at least 2003. The planning process was delayed over the years in part because of funding concerns on Merrimack’s end. State wildlife officials also have been monitoring the fate of bald eagles nesting in the area.
An engineering analysis previously determined the road is too narrow for the amount of traffic that crosses Manchester Street. The bridge also has been “red-listed” by the state, meaning the need to replace it is critical because of deterioration.
Both communities gave the green light to the project earlier this year, choosing to award a $1.97 million contract for the construction work to R.S. Audley, of Bow. CLD Consulting Engineers, of Manchester, was picked for the engineering work, winning a $262,992 contract.
The project will be managed at the municipal level, with 80 percent of the funds coming from the state Department of Transportation and the remaining 20 percent coming from the two communities. Nashua will pick up 15 percent of the cost and Merrimack will fund 5 percent.

I installed way to many of these devices in the late 80's and early 90's for people in Texas who bought them for their semi auto rifles. While I was able to get them to work fairly reliably. Acccuracy seemed pretty poor.IMHO It did empty a 30 round AR15 mag quickly when it worked.Sorry, I guess I should have had this link in my original post.the only thing i can find for "tac trigger system" is spring loaded bump firing trigger assists, which are all junk. can you please refer us to what you are talking about?
The video for it is #4. Seems pretty cool.
Having said that. I agree with SW that they are junk. I spent way to must time readjusting them for people who bought them.
But feel free to buy one and reach your own conclusions.

Read full description of the books:
The hyperactive love child of Page Six and Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? caught in a tawdry love triangle with The Fan. Even Kitty Kelly will blush.
Soaked, nay, marinated in the world of vintage Hollywood, Tell-All is a Sunset Boulevard–inflected homage to Old Hollywood when Bette Davis and Joan Crawford ruled the roost; a veritable Tourette’s syndrome of rat-tat-tat name-dropping, from the A-list to the Z-list; and a merciless send-up of Lillian Hellman’s habit of butchering the truth that will have Mary McCarthy cheering from the beyond.
Our Thelma Ritter–ish narrator is Hazie Coogan, who for decades has tended to the outsized needs of Katherine “Miss Kathie” Kenton—veteran of multiple marriages, career comebacks, and cosmetic surgeries. But danger arrives with gentleman caller Webster Carlton Westward III, who worms his way into Miss Kathie’s heart (and boudoir). Hazie discovers that this bounder has already written a celebrity tell-all memoir foretelling Miss Kathie’s death in a forthcoming Lillian Hellman–penned musical extravaganza; as the body count mounts, Hazie must execute a plan to save Katherine Kenton for her fans—and for posterity.
Tell-All is funny, subversive, and fascinatingly clever. It’s wild, it’s wicked, it’s boldfaced—it’s vintage Chuck.

Read information about the authorWritten in stolen moments under truck chassis and on park benches to a soundtrack of The Downward Spiral and Pablo Honey, Fight Club came into existence. The adaptation of Fight Club was a flop at the box office, but achieved cult status on DVD. The film’s popularity drove sales of the novel. Chuck put out two novels in 1999, Survivor and Invisible Monsters. Choke, published in 2001, became Chuck’s first New York Times bestseller. Chuck’s work has always been infused with personal experience, and his next novel, Lullaby, was no exception. Chuck credits writing Lullaby with helping him cope with the tragic death of his father. Diary and the non-fiction guide to Portland, Fugitives and Refugees, were released in 2003. While on the road in support of Diary, Chuck began reading a short story entitled 'Guts,' which would eventually become part of the novel Haunted.
In the years that followed, he continued to write, publishing the bestselling Rant, Snuff, Pygmy, Tell-All, a 'remix' of Invisible Monsters, Damned, and most recently, Doomed.
Chuck also enjoys giving back to his fans, and teaching the art of storytelling has been an important part of that. In 2004, Chuck began submitting essays to ChuckPalahniuk.net on the craft of writing. These were 'How To' pieces, straight out of Chuck's personal bag of tricks, based on the tenants of minimalism he learned from Tom Spanbauer. Every month, a “Homework Assignment” would accompany the lesson, so Workshop members could apply what they had learned. (all 36 of these essays can currently be found on The Cult's sister-site, LitReactor.com).
Then, in 2009, Chuck increased his involvement by committing to read and review a selection of fan-written stories each month. The best stories are currently set to be published in Burnt Tongues, a forthcoming anthology, with an introduction written by Chuck himself.
His next novel, Beautiful You, is due out in October 2014.

Kiel easily win first MOTW of the season
With a demonstration of power, THW Kiel started their next “Mission Cologne” in the Machineseeker EHF Champions League. Beating Elverum Handball in the first MOTW of the season meant a perfect start for Kiel and an expected result for the Norwegian champions.
On Kiel’s side, Norwegian international Harald Reinkind was the top scorer with six goals and was awarded Player of the Match. Elverum have now lost all three matches against Kiel and still have never taken a point against a German team.
MOTW: THW Kiel (GER) vs. Elverum Handball (NOR) 36:26 (17:13)
- like in their goalfest in the previous season (41:36 in favour of Kiel), both sides mostly focused on the attack in the first half rather than on the defence, but scored ten goals fewer compared to last season, when the halftime score was 20:20
- after a 7:9 deficit, Kiel improved at both ends of the court, especially the left-handed stars Niklas Ekberg and Harald Reinkind, who combined for seven goals by the break, were on fire
- it only took Kiel eight minutes in the second half to decide the unequal encounter, when new arrival Karl Wallinius scored for the eight-goal lead at 23:15
- Niklas Landin won the goalkeeper duel clearly with 10 saves more, strengthening Kiel’s defence
- like Harald Reinkind on THW side, Elverum’s new arrival Uros Borgas scored six goals, while former Elverum player Erik Johansson netted twice in his first Champions League match for Kiel
Tough season ahead for Elverum
After making it to the Champions League play-offs in the last two seasons, Elverum Handball are in a state of transition, again rejuvenating their team. After losing their top stars Eric Johansson (to Kiel) and Dominik Mathe (to PSG), the Norwegian champions are building up a new attack.
Of course, THW Kiel are not on Elverum’s level, but they know that their season will be tough, both in the Machineseeker EHF Champions league and in the Norwegian league, where uprising stars from Kolstad will try everything to secure a spot in the Champions League, when Sander Sagosen arrives. But as new arrival Uros Borgas had proven already at Kiel, he will help his new team.
To be honest, we had a lot of respect for Elverum because of last season, even though we knew they had six new players to integrate. That's why I'm satisfied with our first game and with the way we played in defence. We were brave and consistent. In the second half, Niklas saved a few more shots. We have to stay focused and keep working on ourselves because the next task is already waiting for us on Sunday.
We played with six new players today in a world-class team. Some of them had the experience from last year when we were able to make the games closer. We scored exactly the same number of times in both halves today, but still the first half was better from us. In the second half, we conceded too many goals on the counterattack. I am happy with the step we took, but disappointed with the result.

In the future, your smartphone could issue you with an alert, minutes before the next earthquake strikes.
MyShake, created by researchers from the University of California, Berkeley and Deutsche Telekom's Silicon Valley Innovation Center, is a free Android app that uses a smartphone's accelerometers to record shakes caused by earthquakes.
Though it's still early days, the researchers aim to use the data that they collect to create a global seismic detection network that eventually could warn users of incoming earthquakes.
"As seismologists we are always struggling to think about how to collect more data about earthquakes. We're data-limited in our finds," said Richard Allen, the director of the Berkeley Seismological Laboratory at the University of California, over the phone.
"We need more data so that we can understand the physics of earthquake processes so that we can better predict what will happen in future earthquakes, and so that we can build better buildings, and think of other strategies to reduce the effects of future earthquakes," he added.
The group's study is published Friday in the journal Science Advances. The version of the app that is also released Friday won't have the warning system built in yet. Instead, the researchers are hoping to draw on a global network of the app's users to feed them with earthquake data from across the world. The app also provides users with information on past earthquakes.
"The first generation of the app will be predicting earthquakes and sending data to our central server so that we can verify what we are doing so that we can see all the materials," said Allen.
The app analyzes the data it collects via the phone's accelerometers, relaying it back to the team's central server at the Berkeley Seismological Laboratory. The team developed algorithms to make sure that the app could distinguish between the shakes caused by earthquakes and the day-to-day jolts caused by a user jogging or moving their phone about, which they have to test in the app's first version.
According to Allen, the app will never provide an alternative to traditional seismic networks as the sensors in phones are lower quality in comparison. He said, however, that while traditional seismic networks only have stations every ten kilometers, given smartphones' ubiquity, it would be possible for them to act like miniature stations at much closer distances.
"This app can help improve early warning systems in places like California that have traditional seismic networks," said Allen. "It could also provide people in countries like Nepal that have no early warning systems some form of warning."

(ONN) – A community in central Ohio has said goodbye to U.S. Army Sergeant Joseph Collette who was killed last month while serving in Afghanistan.
Sgt. Collette was 29 years old when he was killed in combat on March 22nd.
A 2007 graduate of Lancaster High School, he served 8 years and 4 months with the Army.
He leaves behind his wife, two children and two step-children.
On Friday, he was laid to rest with full military honors in Fairfield County.
Governor DeWine spoke at the funeral, saying “it’s been said that great men take up great space even when they’re gone.”
“That’s certainly true of Joey. He had a very big presence, and he always will.”
One of the ways he is being honored is by the Army, with a posthumous promotion from Specialist to Sergeant.
He was also posthumously awarded a Purple Heart.

Vice President KAMALA HARRIS has a new chief speechwriter.
DAVE CAVELL, who most recently wrote speeches for climate envoy JOHN KERRY and worked as a speechwriter in the final year of the Obama White House, has joined Harris’ office, people familiar with the move told West Wing Playbook. The vice president and her team were attracted to his resume, including his past experience writing for Massachusetts Attorney General MAURA HEALEY and former Massachusetts Gov. DEVAL PATRICK. But another selling point Cavell brought with him is that he’s a lawyer like both Harris and her husband.
Cavell is the third chief speechwriter for the vice president, who has tried to hone her voice in a role historically difficult to navigate.
Some of Harris’ past speeches — like the one where she told migrants “do not come” while in Guatemala or her solar panel jokes at the Naval academy graduation ceremony — have been met with scorn. And clips of some of her recitations of political cliches have gone viral for the wrong reasons.
While Harris’ team has been more stable relative to the rocky first year, she has had particular trouble filling the chief speechwriter post since the first occupant, KATE CHILDS GRAHAM, announced her departure in February.
Harris’ second speechwriter, MEGHAN GROOB, left this summer after only a few months in the role. People familiar with the matter say that Groob never fully meshed with the vice president, in part because she worked outside the White House campus instead of in the vice president’s office. Asked why she worked off-campus, Harris’ office declined to comment. Groob did not respond to attempts to reach her.
The vice president’s office is meticulous in the hiring of her speechwriters. When Groob competed for the role against CHRISTOPHER HUNTLEY, a former speechwriter for Sen. ELIZABETH WARREN (D-Mass.), the two were asked to turn in mock speeches which senior officials read blind – meaning they didn’t know who wrote which speech.
Some staffers in the vice president’s office privately pulled for Huntley because they wanted to see a Black man write for the first Black woman vice president. They were disappointed he didn’t get the job over Groob, who had most recently written for BILL GATES.
“I didn’t see a speech Bill Gates ever gave that was particularly enthralling,” said one former staffer in the vice president’s office.
Another former Harris staffer said Groob’s speeches had been written in deep collaboration with people who brought the perspective of being a person of color. Others in the vice president’s orbit noted that Harris had people of color write speeches for her during her rise as a politician, but as vice president she didn’t have one as her chief speechwriter.
Despite not getting the chief gig, Huntley has helped with political writing for Harris through the Democratic National Committee, according to the vice president’s office.
“The vice president takes very seriously the team that works for her and we were pleased to have such great help from both Kate Childs Graham, Meghan Groob, Chris Huntley and now Dave Cavell,” communications director JAMAL SIMMONS told West Wing Playbook over the phone (extra credit for not just emailing a statement). “We look forward to her having many more interesting things to say.”
People close to Harris’ office say that the hiring of Cavell provides a good tell of the direction of the office after a turbulent first year. One person who had discussed hires with Harris’ office read it as them continuing to prioritize experienced, steady hands under chief of staff LORRAINE VOLES and Simmons.
But Cavell, with his lawyer chops, is also a sign that Harris is likely to continue to try to lean more into policy. Harris has often resisted the urgings of aides and allies to weave more of her own story and unknown aspects of her biography into speeches — as JOE BIDEN often does. Once they entered the White House, Harris again resisted such urgings in part to try to build trust with Biden world.

This one is from Allie. Which president dug up a spadeful of dirt in Little Falls, Md., on July 4th and why?
(Answer at the bottom.)
DOG ON A BONE: The president’s dog, COMMANDER, was spotted barking at reporters today at the White House. Clearly, another White House canine that could use some sessions with CESAR MILLAN. And yet… Deputy press secretary ANDREW BATES tweeted photos of it with the caption: “Good boy!” Bad Andrew.
REMEMBER, REMEMBER THE 8TH OF ROE-VEMBER: The president vowed at a Democratic National Committee event Tuesday that the first bill he sends to Congress next year will codify Roe v. Wade — if Democrats still control Congress, our CHRISTOPHER CADELAGO and ALICE MIRANDA OLLSTEIN report. The remarks reflect the White House’s intent to continue elevating abortion rights as the midterm elections loom.
PSAKI’S TAKE: Former press secretary JEN PSAKI tweeted that “I don’t read this as @potus realizing he should have come out earlier, the absolute outrage about Dobbs was at a peak all summer. He is trying to re-insert women’s rights back into debate on campaign trail given energy around it has waned because of concerns about the economy.”
GRABBING THE MIC: Biden will be a guest on a “Smartless” podcast episode scheduled for release later this month. He sat down with podcast hosts (and actors) JASON BATEMAN, SEAN HAYES, and WILL ARNETT while out West last week. The move underscores the president’s consistent dodging of more traditional news media which much of his team has resented going back to the 2020 presidential primary, when the national media often underrated Biden’s strength and his chances to win the nomination.
The White House communications shop and the president himself believe much of the same blind spots remain in how the national press covers the presidency today. Indeed, NBC News’ MIKE MEMOLI reports the president and some of his advisers have started to think the news media doesn’t “get” him.
Communications director KATE BEDINGFIELD had a blistering quote along those lines: “There has been a fundamental disbelief, particularly among the D.C., east coast press corps, in Biden’s vision, in his strategy, in his tactics, in his ability to do the things that he said he would do.”
WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE DOESN’T WANT YOU TO READ: Stories in the Washington Post and the New York Post about a 72-year-old U.S. citizen that Saudi Arabia has sentenced to 16 years in jail, along with a 16-year travel ban.
WaPo columnist JOSH ROGIN reports that IBRAHIM ALMADI “is not a dissident or an activist; he is simply a project manager from Florida who decided to practice his right to free speech inside the United States. But last November, when he traveled to Riyadh to visit family, he was detained regarding 14 tweets posted on his account over the previous seven years.”
Almadi’s son is now going on the record. He told Rogin that the State Department urged him against speaking publicly but that he now believes the Biden administration was negligent. As he told the New York Post’s STEVE NELSON: “[My father] got sold for oil, but they didn’t receive the oil. So there is no father, no oil. There’s nothing — there is only shame, that is what the White House has got now.”
ICYMI: First lady JILL BIDEN spoke with Newsmax’s NANCY BRINKER in an interview that aired Monday night. She touched on topics like losing BEAU and the Biden administration’s Cancer Moonshot initiatives.
FIRST IN WEST WING PLAYBOOK: ELIZABETH JURINKA is leaving the White House where she has served as special assistant to the president and Senate legislative affairs liaison, DANIEL LIPPMAN has learned. She played a key role in helping to shepherd the Inflation Reduction Act to passage. Her last day is Friday. Before the White House, she worked for Sen. RON WYDEN (D-Ore.) for a decade, including eight years as his health chief on the Senate Finance Committee.
— ISABELLA ULLOA has left the Department of Homeland Security, where she was deputy chief of staff and focused primarily on cybersecurity, counterterrorism, critical infrastructure protection and the Secret Service, Lippman has also learned. She’s doing some travel as she explores her next step. U.S. Coast Guard Lt. Commander KATHLEEN “KAY” FALLON is now acting deputy chief of staff. She most recently was military aide to Homeland Security Secretary ALEJANDRO MAYORKAS.
— JACK MILLER has joined the Office of Personnel Management as deputy director for communications. He was most recently communications director at Invest in America and is a USAID and Hub Project alum.
KEEP IT FLOWING: The White House plans to announce a release of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in an effort to help bring fuel prices down, our BEN LEFEBVRE reports. The administration is set to release 10 million to 15 million barrels from the reserve as part of an existing plan, announced in March, to release 180 million barrels of crude oil into the market throughout the year.

High Performance Computing Center North
The Department of Computing Sciemce and High Performance Computing Center North (HPC2N) invite to the following two seminars by Dr Vasile Sima, National Institute for Research & Development in Informatics, Bucharest, Romania.
Basic algorithmic and computational issues involved in subspace-based linear multivariable system identification are described. A new system identification toolbox-SLIDENT-has been developed and incorporated in the freely available Subroutine Library in Control Theory (SLICOT). Reliability, efficiency, and ability to solve large, industrial identification problems received a special consideration. Two algorithmic subspace-based approaches (MOESP and N4SID) and their combination, and both standard or fast techniques for data compression are provided. Structure exploiting algorithms and dedicated linear algebra tools enhances the computational efficiency. Extensive comparisons with the available subspace techniques have been made. The numerical results show that the SLIDENT toolbox is highly performant and able to solve large identification problems. SLIDENT abilities will be demonstrated during the talk.
The emphasis in this talk is on computer-aided control systems analysis and design (CACSD). Algorithms, and especially the associated software for CACSD have recorded significant advances in the last years. These advances were motivated by the increasing complexity of the control problems to be addressed; moreover, practical problems are frequently ill-conditioned or badly scaled, and traditional methods often fail. Efficiency and reliability issues are, therefore, very important. The freely available library SLICOT (Subroutine Library In COntrol Theory) addresses these issues. SLICOT is based on the state-of-the-art linear algebra package LAPACK and on the BLAS collections, which guarantee high performance, reliability, and portability. SLICOT extends the functionality of LAPACK for control systems-related problems, like Lyapunov and Riccati equations, model reduction, system identification, etc. To increase the user-friendliness, Matlab/Scilab interfaces have been designed and implemented for many basic computational problems in systems and control. The latest two releases of the SLICOT Library, as well as the associated toolboxes have been developed in the framework of the thematic network NICONET (Numerics in Control), funded by the European Commission starting with 1996. Umeå University has been strongly involved as a partner in this network.
Some abilities of the SLICOT toolboxes will be demonstrated during this talk.

Despite playing a goal down for the majority of the game Sunday, the Valparaiso men’s soccer team got the equalizer off the foot of sophomore Todd Vervynckt (Plymouth, Ind./Plymouth) in the 73rd minute and went on to earn a 1-1 double-overtime draw with Big East foe Pittsburgh Sunday to conclude play at the Duquesne Invitational in Pittsburgh, Pa.
“This was a really good result for us today,” said Crusader head coach Mike Avery. “Obviously we wish we had won, and probably played well enough to have won, but to come back from down a goal on the road against a very tough, physical Pitt team who are well organized is a real challenge. Our guys stood up to that challenge and I was proud of the way we handled that part of the day. We played well today: we kept the ball nicely, had a lot of good possession and created a lot of good chances.”
Pitt opened the scoring on Sunday in the 21st minute of play, as a foul by the Crusaders in the area gave the Panthers an opportunity at a penalty kick. Pitt’s Nico Wrobel stepped up and knocked home the spot kick to give his side a 1-0 lead. Redshirt junior Kyle Zobeck (Coralville, Iowa/Iowa City West) made a pair of first-half saves to hold the Panthers to just one goal, while despite six corner kicks, Valpo tallied just three total shots, none of which were on frame, in the opening 45 minutes.
Valpo started to pile the pressure on in the second half, firing nine shots in an attempt to tie the game. An effort on frame from junior Jaymie Bullard (Naperville, Ill./Neuqua Valley) in the 62nd minute was turned away from Pitt goalkeeper Lee Johnston. But 11 minutes later, the Crusaders put together a combination to find the back of the net. Junior Stipo Zeba (Brookfield, Ill./Morton West) had possession in the attacking half and laid the ball off to junior Kevin Miller (Jefferson City, Mo./Helias). Miller played in Vervynckt behind Pitt’s backs, and the sophomore’s strike found its way inside the right post from 15 yards out for the equalizer, tying the game at one apiece.
The Crusaders fired off five more shots in the remainder of the second half and the two 10-minute overtime sessions, while Pitt registered four shots of its own, but neither team could tally again as the contest ended in a draw.
Valpo owned a 16-11 advantage in the shots category over Pitt (1-2-1), but the Panthers put four shots on frame to the Crusaders’ two. Zobeck made three saves, while Johnston made one stop. The Crusaders also enjoyed a 10-1 edge in corner kicks.
“Over the course of the entire weekend, I feel we really grew up as a team,” said Avery. “We played two physical teams, which will help us down the road as we prepare for some tough games in league play.”
Valparaiso (1-1-1) travels to its second tournament in as many weekends starting next Friday, Sept. 9, as the Crusaders take on host Northern Illinois at the NIU adidas Invitational. The match is slated for a 5 p.m. start, with live stats available through www.valpoathletics.com.

Heber Residents And Officials Discuss Water At Town Hall
Heber City held a town hall last Thursday to address questions about local water use.
To begin the meeting, Heber City planner Tony Kohler said Wasatch County is in the extreme drought status. He also presented a map that showed the county is one of the two highest in the state for water use per capita. Members of the panel said one reason for the high water use per capita is the amount of farming irrigation there.
His presentation led to discussions about how water allocation works in the area, reasons to conserve and concerns about drought in the future.
Resident Tracy Taylor asked the city to share a 10- to 20-year plan for water conservation. She said she feared more drought years in the decade to come would continue to force reservoir levels down.
“As you mentioned, the trends don’t look good. I mean, I think we can all say, maybe, if we’re lucky, five of those years might be above average, and maybe another three are average – I don’t know if we’re ever going to catch up. I think as a community, we look to you guys to go, ‘We need a plan,’” she said.
She added that her concerns are heightened because of ongoing and potential development projects that could add demand to the water system.
Russell Funk, assistant city engineer, said the city does have a conservation plan, which is updated every five years. The last update was in 2016, and he said the next one will add focus on restricting usage during extreme drought periods.
Mayor Kelleen Potter said the city is limited in its power to prohibit development. The city can only place a moratorium on building for six months maximum, according to state law. To do so, the city would have to demonstrate a “compelling, countervailing public interest.”
Kohler said the city’s motivation to conserve water is not primarily those developments.
“Another question that’s been posed recently is, ‘Why should we conserve water? Aren’t you just making me save water so a developer can come in and use that water?’ And the answer is no, the real reason is we want to avoid costs,” he said.
He said the costs the city wants to avoid include needs for new sources, storage and treatment facilities, as well as energy and labor costs.
As for what the city is doing to limit water consumption?
Heber City residents have been encouraged to limit watering to twice a week. However, multiple special service districts require this where water sources are producing as low as 60% of normal flow. That’s what Max Covey of the North Village Special Service District said.
According to Funk, the city invests about 400 to $500,000 each year in the water conservation plan. Details of the plan were not discussed at length during the town hall.
He said according to this plan, the current local water supply doesn’t warrant severe action yet. If the drought gets much worse, he said the city will explore making more changes.
One project on the horizon is to install secondary water meters at residents’ homes. Panel members could not say when precisely that will come guessed within five years.
According to a recent study, just installing meters that allow water users to know how much they consume can lead to 20-30% decreases in output. That’s according to Rick Maloy of the Central Utah Water Conservancy District.
Asked by a resident how that would change how water is distributed in town, Mayor Potter said that would be a future decision for the city council. She and Funk offered their opinions that residents should pay amounts based on how much they consume.

BEWI – Results for the third quarter of 202103-11-2021
BEWI – Results for the third quarter of 2021
BEWI, a leading provider of packaging, components, and insulation solutions, today reported its results for the third quarter of 2021.
BEWI recorded net sales of 193.0 million euro for the third quarter of 2021, compared to 122.1 million euro for the same quarter last year, corresponding to an increase of 58 per cent, of which 43 percentage points are organic growth driven by higher volumes and sales prices in all segments, following strong demand.
Adjusted EBITDA came in at 34.2 million euro for the quarter, up from 17.9 million for the third quarter last year. The company’s upstream segment, RAW, had a positive margin development due to the higher GAP recorded (i.e., styrene gross profit), while margins in the downstream segments are lower than last year, due to the higher cost of the raw material. However, margins for the Packaging & Components segment improved from the previous quarter, in particular due to strong volume development from food packaging in Norway.
“We are delivering yet another quarter with record-high results, driven by continued strong demand and good operational performance, making us well position to pursue further growth. With our recent offer to acquire all shares in Jackon Holding, we launched the most transformative transaction in our history. Although completion of the transaction is still subject to closing conditions, we are very optimistic about the opportunities ahead for a combined company,” says Christian Bekken, CEO of BEWI ASA.
For the first nine months of 2021, BEWI recorded net sales of 540.0 million euro, up from 332.3 million euro. The growth is 21 per cent driven by acquisitions and 40 per cent organic growth, following higher volumes and prices in all segments. Adjusted EBITDA came in at 82.5 million euro for the first nine months, compared to 48.5 million for the same period of 2020.
BEWI is experiencing solid demand, despite challenging market conditions in some end-markets. Most most industries are currently impacted by increased uncertainty related to shortage and/ or delay in deliveries of components, as well as cost inflation on several operational costs, such as energy, transport, and raw materials. BEWI expects this to impact margins in the fourth quarter. EPS contract prices have remained high, resulting in expectations of a GAP (difference between prices of EPS raw materials and Styrene) remaining above the historically normal range of EUR 360 to 400 per ton also for the fourth quarter.
In September, BEWI hosted a Capital Markets Update and launched its ambition to roughly double revenues and more than double its EBITDA over the next five years, as well as improving its return on capital employed (ROCE) to approximately 20 per cent. The Jackon transaction, announced after the update, adds to the company’s growth ambitions, and further strengthens the company’s platform to pursue attractive growth opportunities. Completion of the transaction is expected during the first half of 2022, with synergies amounting to at least EUR 12 to 15 million.
The Board considers BEWI to have a solid platform for further profitable growth driven by stable demand, a solid operational performance, combined with a strong pipeline of M&A opportunities and a fully funded business plan.
Please see the full report for the third quarter of 2021 and the presentation of the results attached.
CEO Christian Bekken and CFO Marie Danielsson will present the results from 08:00 at Sparebank 1 Markets auditorium in Olav V’s gate 5 in Oslo, Norway. The presentation will also be available through a live webcast. The link to the webcast is available from BEWI’s homepage www.bewi.com/investors/reports-presentations/. It will be possible to post questions through the webcast, and a recording of the webcast will be made available from BEWI’s website.

A gun-owning friend of mine who read Mass Murder’s Bright Future had this to say:
One of the things that I think warps peoples view is not understanding people who are avid hunters and shooters. I have read time and time again about people who had a cache of weapons or ammo only to find out the person had a couple of handguns and a few hundred rounds of ammo. To a person who doesn’t shoot 200 or even 500 rounds of ammo may seem like a lot to an avid shooter that is an hour or two at the range on a Saturday morning. For some owning dozens of guns is a pretty normal thing. I hope this doesn’t make you think less of me but I have ordered A LOT of ammunition through the internet.
The reality is gun ownership is on the rise in the country and violent crime is on the decline. There is not much political will to really change gun laws. The assault weapons ban ended and while there was a prediction of blood in the streets crime rates still went down. Politicians know there is nothing to win and quite a bit to loose. It seems to only play well with progressives I know a LOT of liberals who are pro-gun or at least agnostic to them.
The reality is that laws only effect those who follow them ask me some time about the ridiculous hoops one has to jump through. It defies logic. The criminals don’t jump though the hoops. The mentally ill don’t either.
The world isn’t safe it is a fact but I personally am not willing to give up any freedom for the perception of safety.”
This exchange about gun rights interested me:
“This was an otherwise law-abiding person who snapped. This wasn’t a case of a known criminal or known wacko getting guns when he shouldn’t have. Its the risk associated with living in a free, armed society. Yes, incidents like this are tragic, but i’m not going to give up more of my rights just because a couple people died in a random act of violence.”
Response: “maybe if it wasn’t so easy for these law abiding people who can potentially snap to have guns, or if there wasn’t a culture of paranoia making people believe they need guns to be safe, this wouldn’t have happened. You are being stubborn about what you perceive to be an essential right, while people continue to die in these “random tragic acts of violence”, and other countries who have stricter gun controls laugh at you. This is not the Revolutionary war, or the zombie apocalypse, or any of these scenarios you secretly hope happen so you can justify your ownership of firearms. You’ll never use your gun for anything useful, you’ll never be the hero in your own Rambo fantasy where you save the neighborhood. Sorry to shatter your dreams.”
I love that rant about Rambo! I think it is unfair, but also not completely untrue either. Here’s another one about the incredible disconnect between gun owners and others:
“If I had been there, he would have been neutralized within seconds. I do not go to the movies because my legal gun is not welcome. Sure, take away more rights. That will solve everything.”
Response: “You are scary.”
I’m glad to see Obama has started talking about guns. Discussion is good.

And old age is not for sissies.
Two colloquialisms that hit home this week.
Its been a bad week for bone breaks. First, my DIL Amber’s brother fell through a ceiling and ended up in surgery with a permanent plate and many screws in his wrist. He had surgery today, and we are all praying for him to heal well.
Yesterday, my dad thought his wheelchair was under him when it was not, and he fell onto the ceramic floor. He shattered his femur, a bad spiral fracture. At first the doctors did not want to touch it, and said he would need to lay in bed for three to six months to let it heal naturally. That whole process was full of risks, pain, and not much hope of ever being able to put his weight on that leg. We were ready to make arrangements for him to go to a nursing facility to start this process when HOPE walked in the door. A bone doctor who thought surgery might be an option. My dad jumped at the opportunity (well, not literally). This surgery has to be approved by a cardiologist and other doctors yet. Its again a big risk, a big long surgery involving rods and pins and plates. And the recovery will be grueling. But, he will have more motion during recovery and more of a chance to actually put weight on that leg. If I had to pin a label to my dad, it would say “Man of Courage and Faith”, and on the back it would say….”Stubborn Polack!”
If you think of it, please say a prayer for dad. His surgery is scheduled for Monday.

Nidalee Build Guide by nick359810
Not Updated For Current Season
Not Updated For Current Season
Honestly for every AP champ I always go for Magic Pen Reds, Magic Resist Yellows, Magic Resist blues, and AP Quints! So all of theses runes will give you a total of +19 Magic Resist, +8.5 Magic Pen, and +15 AP!!! This will help you sustain against a AP mid champ. You'll mostly have a 90% chance that you'll have more magic resist than your opponent! Honestly I never get Mana Regain Runes because I think they don't help that much and the the item Athene's Unholy Grail plus the mastery will be enough.
Hello my name SamTheSpam and I will explain you how to build Nidalee's right! :D I never knew this build worked! I felt so proud that I wanted to share with you guys!!!!! You guys can add me on LoL if you would like! But just to tell you guys this build is mostly for AP Nidalee's and people who can hit their spears! But people who just bought Nidalee just keep on practicing and this build will dominate!
OH AND PLEASE CHECK OUT MY DRAVEN BUILD http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/draven-the-first-blood-taker-249151
For Nidalee I go 21-0-89 on the Mastery Page because your MR will already help you with sustain so you don't need anything on the defense tree. The Offensive tree will increase your AP and will make your last hits easier. For Utility the extra movement speed and mana regain will help you a lot!
For my build I always try to rush for Athene's Unholy Grail. This will give give you a big boost on your stats! It gives you extra MR, AP, and Mana Regain! You'll still have to ability to burst a lot of champions down even though you don't rush a Rabadons Deathcap! After I get my Magic Pen boots to give me the extra penetration to burst even more champions down! After the Boots I go for the Lich Bane. Lich Bane gives you even more MAGIC RESIST AND ABILITY POWER PLUS THE OP PASSIVE THAT GIVES YOU! Then I go for Rabadons. You should know what Rabadons stats are. Every AP champ needs a Rabadons. For my last two items I go for Abyssal and Archangles. Even though building a Archangles is late the Tear Of Goddess will boost you late game AP after you buy the full set.
PROS / CONS
The PROS for Nidalee are....
CAN RUN AWAY FROM GANKS
PASSIVE SO GOOD
The CONS for Nidalee are.....
USELESS WHEN ENEMY STACKS A LOT OF MR
NEED TO HIT SPEARS
SOMETIMES HARD TO JUMP OVER WALLS
ENEMY CAN OUT HARASS YOU
NEED TO FARM A LOT TO DO A LOT OF DAMAGE WITH YOUR SPEARS
For Nidalee TEAM WORK IS IMPORTANT!!! Your traps and your heal will allow your teammates gain more sustain and Map awareness!!!! Nidalee is really good for bursting important enemy champs from long distance. Don't be afraid to use your Cougar Form. Your Lich Bane will help you so much!
When I play Nidalee I always try to farm with me E it gives you more attack speed so you'll have a less chance of missing a last hit. When you hit level 6 thats when you try to catch up in farming. The combo for farming with her Cougar is her W first then E then Q. Just keep repeating the combo. The cool down is realy short on Nidalee so don't be afraid to spam your skills.
TIPS AND TRICKS
For the begging game the style of Nidalee that I play is defensive. I try to stay back and getting away from getting damaged much a possible. You can harass but auto attacking the enemy champion at levels 1-5. This will allow your opponent to play defensive as well(FARM GAME). Your traps will help you do a lot of damage in early game so make sure you keep placing them down away from the enemy minions. Put 2 through 3 traps close to each other because when your opponent try to escape from your harass they will have a 70% chance they well step on the trap. After they hit most of your traps. They will probably have to go back to base to heal. Your passive of that trap(ALLOWS YOU TO SEE THEM IN FOG OF WAR) will make a easier target for your spears. When you hit level 6 start trying to burst your opponent down. My combo is my W-E-Q- and R. When you turn into a cougar form use your W-E-Q maybe a ignite if you have it up. Just keep repeating that concept until you hit around max level. When the game turns into a late game your opponents will get more tankier and you'll become more squishier. So make sure you'll start playing like early game.

Robert Duvall has a net worth of $70 million as just an actor, producer, as well as director in the United States. Duvall is regarded as one of America’s most famous performers. His most famous roles are The Godfather and The Godfather Part II. He has indeed been nominated for seven Academy Awards (winning one) and seven Golden Globes as of this writing (winning four). He’s also been nominated for a BAFTA, an Emmy, and a SAG Award.
Robert Duvall made his off-Broadway debut in 1958 at Manhattan’s Gate Theater, playing Frank Gardner in George Bernard Shaw’s Mrs Warren’s Profession. He made his debut television appearance inside the episode “The Jailbreak” on Armstrong Circle Theater in 1959. During the 1960s, he was a frequent guest star on television in action, thriller, detective, as well as crime dramas.
Duvall made his film debut in 1962 as Boo Radley in To Kill a Mockingbird, which received great praise.
It wasn’t until the 1970s that Duvall’s career truly took off. Tom Hagen inside The Godfather (1972) and The Godfather Part II (1973), about which he received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor, was his breakthrough performance and the first big critical triumph (1974).
For his role as Lt. Colonel Kilgore inside the 1979 picture Apocalypse Now, Duvall was nominated for just a second Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. For this role, he received a BAFTA Award as well as a Golden Globe Award.
In 2005, President George W. Bush presented Duvall with the National Medal of Arts in the White House. Duvall became the oldest actor ever nominated for such an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his work in the film ten years later, there at age of 84.
Byrnley Farm, Duvall as well as Pedraza’s permanent property, is indeed a 250-year-old Georgian mansion in Fauquier County, Northern Virginia. The property, which spans over 360 acres, was bought by Duvall in 1994.
For his role in the very first Godfather picture, Robert was paid $36,000. That’s $1,000 much more Al Pacino, the co-star. For the second instalment, he was paid $500,000. Duvall was promised a $1 million salary when the third picture was in pre-production. Whereas this was more than quadruple his prior salary (albeit adjusted for inflation), this is nowhere near the $5 million That Al Pacino had been given.
“If they paid Pacino twice what they paid me, that’s OK,” Duvall said on “60 Minutes” in 2004. “But not three or four times, which is what they did.”

Nuvva Nena (2012) Review Aggregator
Nuvva Nena, the Telugu Romantic comedy film directed by debutante P. Narayana and produced by Vamsi Krishna under SVK Cinema banner has been released. The film stars Shriya Saran, Allari Naresh, Sharvanand, and Vimala Raman in lead roles. Mixed reviews are what the film has garnered.
Rediff calls it a fun-ride: “Debutant director Narayana scripts and directs this entertainer which is fun from the word go. Two guys going after the same girl is nothing new but Narayana’s casting (Allari Naresh, Sharwanand and Shriya) makes Nuvva Nena a good film to watch.”
Full Hyderabad doesn’t share the enthusiasm: “Nuvva Nena is the kind of film that seeks to remind you that even the most bankable of stars is, well, human. And more important, that comedy doesn’t grow on trees. The makers of the movie attempt to be hilarious, but fall far short of what they set out to do.”
Cinegoer thinks that at best, the film is watchable: “The only aspect where Nuvva Nena differs from the David Dhawan comedy Deewana Mastana is that it is not over the top and loud but that doesn’t make this story a must watch. Ali makes you smile at times but there is nothing that will make you sit through the end, after a point the Tom and Jerry skirmish gets on the nerves.”

Finca Miravalle is located in the fertile foothills of El Salvador ’s Santa Ana volcano, at an average altitude of 1,650 metres above sea level. Gracefully located “Palo de Campana”, Miravalle farm thrives amongst a breath-taking view, clim ate, rainfall and continued meticulous care from its owners. This small farm is owned and managed by Jaime Ernesto Riera Menendez, whose family has been producing coffee in El Salvador for several generations
Jaime initially inherited the farm from his mother, Marta Dolores MenéndezdeRieraafew years ago,and together they still supervise all the work.
Some 10 hectares of the farm are planted out with a mix of Bourbón and Pacas variety trees, which are grown in the shade of native Ingas, Cipres and Gravileo species. The coffee is selectively handpicked when fully ripe, then fully washed and dried in the sun.
Some of the cultural practices they develop at the farm are the continuous pruning of the coffee and shade trees, weed control, replanting and renewing the farm, all of this work using traditional methods. Due to its high altitude Miravalle’s coffee berries ripen slowly. This year’s harvest was not picked until February. Throughout the year only 2 people live at the farm,the manager,Luis Flores and his wife.During harvest Finca Miravalle employs around 70 selected pickers from the surrounding areas. Finding workers around this area is very difficult because many people migrated to the lower plains after Santa Ana’s eruption in 2005. As a result Miravalle pay their pickers almost 40% above the minimum wage.
Jaime thinks the reason why his farm was awarded 13th place in the Cup of Excellence this year is the excellent quality of the Bourbón variety, also its altitude and location. He is highly motivated to keep up with the optimum harvest and sorting processes to improve the quality each year. He thinks the key to this is motivating the people that work on the farm, teaching them the importance of their role, and improving the benefits for everyone involved.
Doctor Jaime Riera Menéndez is the owner of Miralvalle farm and is the person in charge of managing and working the farm. His coffee tradition comes from 3 generations: he is a gastroenterological M.D. whose parents made him feel the love for coffee cultura.
Miralvalle Farm is located at Ilamatec mountain range, at an altitude of 1650 masl, closet to Santa Ana volcano.
Gracefully located at “Palo de Campana” - almost at the top of the Santa Ana volcano - Miralvalle farm enjoys a breath-taking view, good climate, rainfall, and the care of her owner.
Jaime Riera is a gastroenterologist and also a coffee producer. He inherited this farm from his mother, Marta Dolores Menéndez de Riera, a few years ago, and together they still supervise all the work. This farm was bought by his late father, Amadeo Riera y Solsona, more than 20 years ago.
Some of the cultural practices they develop at the farm include the continuous pruning of the coffee and shade trees, weed control, and replanting and renewing the farm. They use traditional methods for all of this work. Also, the farm ripens slowly because of Miralvalle's high altitude. This year they had to wait until February, when the farm had evenly ripened, to harvest appropriately.
Finding workers around this area is very difficult because people migrated to the lower parts after the eruption of the Santa Ana volcano in 2005. Only 2 people live at the farm; the manager Luis Flores, and his wife. However, for the harvest they employ around 70 selected pickers from the surrounding areas and pay them almost 40% above the legal wage.
Jaime thinks the reason the farm got an award this year is the excellent quality of the Bourbón variety; also, its altitude and location. He is highly motivated to keep up with the optimum harvest and sorting processes to improve the quality each year.He thinks the key to this is motivating the people that work the farm, teaching them the importance of their role, and improving the benefits for everyone involved.
