    Bridge fences

    Enough is enough. Its about time we gave this bridge a break. When people want to end their life, they come to the Penobscot Narrows Bridge. Its about time they put up some safety rails and fences to stop people from jumping off this bridge. They put up those fences in Augusta, why not here on this bridge?

    Lets stop this by installing some high fences so that it will be impossible for anyone to climb over. It will be a lot better to see those fences than to see the Coast Guard pulling a body out from under this nice bridge.

    While the University of Maine mens basketball team admittedly has a history of being not very good, this season has brought about new lows. With only three wins in America East this season, Maine has dropped to 337 out of 351 Division I programs in a well-respected college basketball power ranking list at http://www.kenpom.com. Its time for there to be accountability for their overall lack of competitiveness, and that accountability starts at the top. On behalf of Fill The Steins Nation, its time for University of Maine Coach Ted Woodward to resign.

    Woodward is now in his tenth season as coach. In that time, the teams overall record is 116-174 (40 percent winning percentage) and 65-95 (40.62 percent) in America East. Maine has had one winning season (2009-10) during Woodwards tenure and has seen the win total decline in each of the last four seasons.The level of patience shown for Woodward by the athletic department is admirable. However alumni, supporters and fans eventually deserve to see sustained competitiveness.

    Maine will never be a basketball school; hockey will always come first. That doesnt mean we should accept a mens basketball team that is uncompetitive more often than not. Both John Giannini and Rudy Keeling took Maine to the conference tournament final as Maines head coach. Theres no reason to think the right coach cant do that again, particularly in the traditionally weak America East. After a decade of mediocrity-at-best, Woodward has proven to not be that coach.

    Irish Stallion Farms E.B.F. Novice Chase 2m 1f - March 3, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Verdict

    Moscow Mannon was having only his second start over fences when storming to a 15-length victory at Naas and is a very smart chasing prospect. However, he was beaten over hurdles by MALLOWNEY on that track a year ago and the latter has hardly stood still over fences. Although beaten by Back Before Dawn at Navan last time, when Some Tikket fell when under pressure, that was a Grade 2 and the winner is another very promising type. Timothy Doyle's charge was still in touch when falling in a Grade 1 here earlier and can come out best this time. Darwins Fox is a stable companion of Moscow Mannon but carries a penalty for a very easy Grade 3 victory at Roscommon and has plenty to do. Mount Colah was behind the selection at Fairyhouse in December and Is Herself About, an easy debut winner over fences at Clonmel, will find these rivals much tougher.

    Mount Colah (IRE) 6-4fav (11-7) Chased leader, led after 3rd, travelled well in lead when bad mistake last, soon headed, ridden and rallied run-in to lead again closing stages, won at Thurles 2m beg chase sft in Jan beating Katnap (11-12) by 3/4l, 16 ran.

    Could snow fences in the Barrie/Innisfil area have prevented this week's pileup? - March 2, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Could more snow fencing along Highway 400 have prevented Thursday's 98-vehicle crash, or at least mitigated the storm's impact?

    Bruce Holtom, owner of FenceSource in Barrie, says it would be worth trying.

    Snow fence is and has always been very effective. The higher the snow fence, the more snow it will grab, he said Friday. In most years, in most applications, one stretch of four-foot-high fencing does a good job.

    You really do get lulled into a false sense of security when you have three or four mild winters, and all of a sudden it gets like this.

    This clearly isn't like most winters. Just entering March there are already near-record snowfall levels in the Barrie area.

    Thursday's squalls brought not only snow but gusting winds to the area, creating white-outs that led to the early morning, chain-reaction crashes on the 400.

    Gary Lyon of Barrie said they might have been prevented.

    Perhaps it would have made no difference in this case, but why has MTO not investigated putting up wind barriers along these open stretches of (Highway) 400? he asked. The greenest option would be trees, but something like the noise barriers you see along 400-series highways might help. Has this ever been studied?

    The MTO, of course, is Ontario's Transportation Ministry, which is responsible for all things connected to the 400-series highways (see pullout).

    Years ago we used to see a lot more snow fence installed than we do these days, Holtom said. Everybody's watching budgets (today), and we've had some milder winters.

    Park Hill Hospital Novices' Chase 3m - March 2, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Verdict

    Victor Hewgo has taken well to fences and was just caught by Cheltenham-bound Holywell over course and distance 10 days ago. Despite his penalty, he'll be tough to beat again but COWARDS CLOSE could flourish now tackling fences as he's already a winner between the flags. He was well backed over hurdles here on his reappearance and can recoup losses now. My Dads Horse was a long way behind Victor Hewgo over a shorter trip here in January and Perfect Candidate was due to run at Newbury yesterday.

    Perfect Candidate (IRE) 33-1 (11-0) Held up towards rear, outpaced before 5 out, stayed on from last, nearest at finish, 4th of 7, 10l behind Victor Hewgo (11-0) at Doncaster 3m nov chs (4) gs in Jan.

    Victor Hewgo 5-2 (11-7) Tracked leaders in 3rd, went 2nd at 2nd, ridden before 3 out, led last, kept on and headed towards finish, 2nd of 5, 3/4l behind Holywell (11-7) at Doncaster 3m nov chs (4) gs in Feb.

    Cowards Close (IRE) 3-1fav (10-11) Chased leaders, chance 3 out, weakened approaching next, 7th of 11, 17l behind Mister Dillon (10-11) at Doncaster 3m hcp hdl 0-140 (3) gs in Dec.

    My Dads Horse 20-1 (10-12) last of 5, well behind Western Warhorse (10-12) at Doncaster 2m 3f nov chs (3) gs in Jan.

    March 1, 2014

    Scoresheet

    BARTONVILLE, Texas - The SMU equestrian team improved to 4-1 at home with an 11-9 (1425-1361.5) victory over No. 8 TCU on Saturday afternoon at Sleepy P Ranch. Junior Emma Roberts (flat), freshman Sylvia de Toledo (fences) and freshman Jaclyn White (horsemanship) turned in MOP rides.

    Roberts improved to 3-1 on the flat in the spring, after cracking the lineup over the break. The Mustang junior added a fences victory for her second-straight two-point performance. Roberts' victory over fences was her fourth of the 2013-14 campaign. Sophomore Schaefer Raposa also did the double on Saturday, recording a 68-64 flat victory and an 83-78 fences win.

    On the western side, freshmen Morgan Redwine and Jaclyn White turned in two-point afternoons. Redwine's double is the second of her young career.

    The Mustangs grabbed four points on the flat, also getting victories from senior Julianna Fischer (63-53) and sophomore Alex Butterworth (76-70). SMU also won fences by a count of 3-2, getting points from de Toledo (83-76), Raposa (83-78) and Roberts (84-80).

    SMU got four points out of the two western events on Saturday. In horsemanship, Redwine defeated TCU's Rylee Morgan 70.5-66, while White's MOP earned her a 74 in her one-point win. On the reining side, Redwine tallied a 61.5, while White edged TCU's Chantz Stewart 67-66.5.

    The Mustangs will now await the bracket for the 2014 NCEA Championships that will be held in Waco, Texas, from April 17-19.

    W. Golf. Johnna Letchworth and Alexa Anthony Named SEC Riders of the Month - February 28, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Feb. 28, 2014

    COLUMBIA, S.C. - South Carolina senior Johnna Letchworth (horsemanship) and junior Alexa Anthony (equitation over fences) were named SEC Riders of the Month for February, it was announced today. This is Letchworth's second SEC Rider of the Month honor this season and third of her career, while Anthony claims her first SEC Rider of the Month honor, becoming the sixth Gamecock all-time to earn the recognition.

    "This is a great recognition for both Johnna and Alexa and we're all very proud of them," South Carolina head coach Boo Major said. "February was a tough month for us on the schedule with two conference meets and two road meets, but we rode very well in all of those meets and were able to win them all, so it's certainly nice to see Alexa and Johnna get recognized.

    In winning her first ever SEC Rider of the Month honor, Anthony went 3-0 with three MVP honors during the month of February in equitation over fences, all against top-10 opponents. Two of her wins and two of her MVP honors came on the road. In each of her rides during February, her scores were the highest jumping scores of those particular meets.

    While earning her third career SEC Rider of the Month honor, Letchworth posted a 3-0 horsemanship record with two MVPs during the month of February. In two of her three meets in February, she posted the event-high score while winning MVP honors.

    The Gamecocks return to action on Saturday, Mar. 1, when Carolina hosts No. 2 Auburn in the final SEC regular season meet of the 2013-2014 season. Saturday's meet begins at 10 a.m. at One Wood Farm in Blythewood, and admission is free.

    Fences blocking trail removed - February 28, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Barbed-wire fencing and no trespassing signs that a property owner installed blocking access to a portions of a popular hiking trail between Shell Beach and Avila Beach have been removed.

    Property owner Rob McCarthy had the fencing and signs taken down this week, after receiving a letter from the Coastal Commission telling him he must do so or face stiff penalties.

    In a letter dated Feb. 20, Coastal Commission code enforcement staff told McCarthy, who lives in Texas but plans to retire in Avila Beach, that he had until March 10 to remove the fencing, signs and gate that were blocking access to the trail.

    McCarthy erected the fencing and signs earlier this year on his property just east of Cave Landing Road, angering the public which has used the Ontario Ridge looping trail for years. He maintained he blocked portions of the path because of safety concerns for those individuals that use it.

    The county didnt require McCarthy to obtain coastal permits for the fencing project, but the commission disagreed earlier this month and ruled McCarthy violated the states Coastal Act by blocking the trail.

    A county easement also exists on the property that allows the public to legally use the pathway.

    Coastal Commission staff is expected to inspect McCarthys property in the near future to determine if the man has complied with the agencys demands.
