<title>The son of a wealthy industrialist family</title>
<description>
<![CDATA[ <p>Nanaimo Daily News</p><br><p></p><br><p>WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. Amateur to Arnold Palmer. He was 90.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Stranahan, who died Sunday in Hospice of Palm Beach County, was regarded as the best amateur since Bobby Jones. Quattlebaum Funeral Home, which did not disclose his cause of death, said a memorial service was planned July 2.</p><br><p></p><br><p>The son of a wealthy industrialist family in Ohio  his father was the founder of Champion Spark Plug  Stranahan combined a life of privilege with his devotion to golf to win more than 50 amateur titles, including multiples wins in the British Amateur, Western Amateur and North and South Amateur. Amateur. Amateur, and then turned pro. <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts uk</a> Stranahan, who packed barbells in his suitcase to work out on the <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts</a> road, won six times on the PGA Tour, twice as a pro. His biggest win was the 1958 Los Angeles Open.</p><br><p></p><br><p>As an amateur, he was a runnerup in the 1947 Masters to Jimmy Demaret, finished one shot behind Fred Daly at Hoylake in the 1947 British Open and was a runnerup to Ben Hogan at Carnoustie in the 1953 British Open.</p><br><p></p><br><p>"He was my old buddy," Palmer said Tuesday from his office in Latrobe, Pa. "We were pretty close for a lot of years. He always thought I would be one of his guys and do the muscle thing and all that. And of course, we played against each other a lot. He was a great guy, a good friend. He played some very good golf."</p><br><p></p><br><p>Stranahan was devoted to fitness as much as his golf.</p><br><p></p><br><p>He ran in more than 100 marathons, and he was winning trophies for body building and weightlifting well into his 70s. One video shows Stranahan celebrating his 78th birthday with a dead lift of 265 pounds.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Stranahan was born Aug. Open. Stranahan was still a teenager when he won the Ohio Amateur in 1941.</p><br><p></p><br><p>"I would say my greatest accomplishment as an amateur was having the opportunity to play in so many of those wonderful golf tournaments," Stranahan said in a 2001 interview with the Toledo Blade. "At every tournament, they put me with the winner from the week before. So I was always playing with Demaret, Snead, Locke, Hogan and other tremendous champions. I was playing the best courses with the best players, and it was very satisfying to do well in those situations."</p><br><p></p><br><p>He tied with Nelson in the 1947 Masters, where Stranahan closed with a 68 to finish two shots behind. His best chance at a major was Hoylake that summer, when he went into the final round one shot behind Daly and matched his 72. Six years later, he closed with a 69 to finish in a tie for second at Carnoustie, four shots behind Hogan.</p><br><p></p><br><p>In one of the more famous tales involving Stranahan, he was not allowed to compete in the 1948 Masters when he was accused of hitting more than one shot into <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts uk</a> the greens during the practice round. Stranahan said he was only hitting additional putts on the green, which was allowed. No matter. He said club officials revoked his invitation.</p><br><p></p><br><p>"So I bought a ticket, and I stayed there," Stranahan said in a 1998 interview with Sports Illustrated.</p><br><p></p><br><p>He played the next year and tied for 19th.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Stranahan retired from competition in 1964, though he left quite a mark. Beyond his results, he cut an impressive figure with his movie star looks and physique that he enjoyed showing off in tightfitting shirts. Palmer referred to him as "Muscles."</p><br><p></p><br><p>"He used to carry his weights in a suitcase," Palmer said. "He'd get the bellman to carry the luggage to his room, but it was so heavy they couldn't lift it."</p><br><p></p><br><p>Stranahan married the former Ann Williams in 1953. She became an accomplished amateur golfer until her death in 1975 from cancer. They had three sons  Frank Stranahan Jr., who died in 1966 at age 11 from bone cancer; and James, who died in 1977. Stranahan is survived by his third son, Lance.</p><br>

<title>Grounds alive for visitors enjoyment football</title>

<![CDATA[ <p>Nacogdoches customers consider drilling their own <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">cheap football kits</a> wells to save</p><br><p></p><br><p>NACOGDOCHES, TX (KTRE) Starting Thursday water rates are going up for Nacogdoches residents and irrigation account holders. <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football kits</a> Stage 2 of the city drought conservation plan is underway.In anticipation of the changes, at least two high water usage customers are considering drilling their own water wells. The idea may work to save money and water.Nacogdoches Independent School District and Stephen F. Austin State University are researching the feasibility of drilling water wells for irrigation purposes only. "By drilling it at the high school and connecting our athletic fields we think we can conserve about 60% of our total use," said Chris Davis, NISD Director of Plant Services.In the summer it takes as much as 1/4 inch a water a day to keep football fields green. That means about 18,000 gallons of water is used every day at NISD. The usage adds up quickly.At SFA, a watering schedule keeps the Azalea Garden and other grounds alive for visitors enjoyment. The University already practices water conservation methods. A 400 foot water well is expected to produce not less than 40 gallons per minute.Business is good for well drillers. Cities to individuals are drilling water wells as a way to cope with the drought. The demand is place on underground aquifers.Business <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football kits</a> is good for well drillers. Cities to individuals are drilling water wells as a way to cope with the drought. The demand is place on underground aquifers. "Every straw we put in the ground in the water table affects the water table level. We very fortunate in East Texas to have the Carrizo Wilcox Aquifer that we pull water from for our groundwater resources and right now it in very good shape compared to our lakes for example. So, we pretty comfortable those will be minor impacts to the groundwater," Steve Bartlett, city engineer.As water tables are affected, so will be city coffers. The less water used and the more wells drilled means fewer water bills going out and less revenue coming in.Residential customers can also apply for well permits, but Nacogdoches city dwellers must still rely on the city treated water for household use.BreakingEtoile man killed in shootout with Nacogdoches Co. deputiesEtoile man killed in shootout with Nacogdoches Co.The 10th episode aired this past Saturday and of course we all want to know, will there be a season 2?More &gt;&gt;Lufkin PD: Lufkin man and woman stole large metal utility box valued at $4KLufkin PD: Lufkin man and woman stole large metal utility box valued at $4KUpdated: Wednesday, August 7 2013 12:25 PM EDT20130807 16:25:28 GMTLufkin Police officers arrested a man and a woman for felony theft Tuesday afternoon after they allegedly took a large utility box from the outside of a business located at 2902 E.

<title>I will admit it can get a little loud football</title>
<description>
<![CDATA[ <p>My Problem with Myrtle Beach Bike Week</p><br><p></p><br><p>It started as a whisper some time back, but it has grown to a loud and thunderous roar, and I beginning to believe it. Yes kids, it looks like Bike Week in Myrtle Beach is really back.</p><br><p></p><br><p>You might remember a few years ago when our city council decided we no longer needed the millions of dollars generated each year by the bikers who invade our fair city. It looks like they reconsidered. I, for one, am happy to see it.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Here it is midweek and the hogs are already running wild in the streets. If you a server or a bartender in this town, that wild fun spells dollar signs. Sure, it a bit of an inconvenience, but so is standing in the bread line and rooting through your cushions for loose change.</p><br><p></p><br><p>I will admit it can get a little loud, lying in bed at night and listening to the bikes roar up and down Kings Highway, and it doesn make for the best night sleep, but it beats hearing your stomach growl with hunger. Sitting at a stoplight and not being able to hear your car radio is a pain, but knowing your bank account is going to swell over the next week or so kind of makes up for it.</p><br><p></p><br><p>My only problem with Bike Week is the actual bikers themselves. I mean, have you talked to any of these people? Most of them are extremely nice. They like regular people with jobs and families and everything. Is that even allowed in the biker world?</p><br><p></p><br><p>What happened to the outlaw bikers wreaking havoc and running amok? I met bikers who work as doctors and lawyers, accountants and teachers. It just doesn seem right somehow.</p><br><p></p><br><p>I want Marlon Brando in The Wild Bunch. Give me Dennis Hopper in Easy Rider. At the very least, give me Jack Nicholson in that goofy football helmet.</p><br><p></p><br><p>I want the ones Hunter Thompson wrote about in Hell Angels. Outlaw bikers aren supposed to shop at Walmart. You aren supposed to see them parked in front of ice cream shops. They supposed to be too rough and dirty to be browsing the aisles of our local supermarkets. There nothing outlaw about buying burgers and hotdogs at the Piggly Wiggly.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Oh well, until we figure out how to attract the true outlaw biker gangs to Myrtle Beach I guess we are stuck with these nice bikers. We will have to put up with these hardworking American bikers who take <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts uk</a> time off from work to come down to our city in their black tee shirts and bandanas. We will just have to put up with them as they spend their vacation time and cash at our stores and attractions, our bars and our restaurants, pulling us out of our slow off season and boosting our economy. I guess there just no justice in the world.</p><br><p></p><br><p>I, for one, am happy to have them back. Be safe everybody.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Have a Service Industry story to share? Want to add your two cents to Life Behind Bars? Feel free to contact Troy at</p><br><p></p><br><p>This email address is being protected from <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football boots</a> spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view itBe advised, there is a good chance, if Troy likes your <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football kits</a> story and decides to use it in the column, he will probably take full credit for it and not give you so much as a thank you.

<title>Brenda Moon, a breast cancer survivor</title>
<description>
<![CDATA[ <p>Local organizations raising awareness for breast cancer</p><br><p></p><br><p>Members of Airdrie s Fire Department are sporting a new look.</p><br><p></p><br><p>This month, in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, many firefighters have replaced their collared black shirts with pink Tshirts.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Three years ago, one of our member s wives had breast cancer and since then we have been doing the program, said Shaun Parke, public relations coordinator for Airdrie s Professional Firefighters Association (APFFA).</p><br><p></p><br><p>The APFFA purchased the shirts for the firefighters, but residents can <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">cheap football kits</a> also take part in the program.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Parke explained the Tshirts are available to purchase for $25 at any of Airdrie s fire stations and he encourages residents to get involved.</p><br><p></p><br><p>The purchase of these Tshirts supports <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts</a> people currently in the fight (against breast cancer) and researching for ending the disease, but more importantly to raise awareness, said Parke.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Brenda Moon, a breast cancer survivor and official spokesperson for the Calgary s 12th annual CIBC Run for the Cure in 2009, said it is good to get the word <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts</a> out about the disease.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Moon said a number of organizations, including professional and amateur football leagues, take part in the awareness campaign.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Through the teams all wearing their pink gloves, boots mouthguards it reminds me how prevalent (breast cancer) is, said Moon. It also reminds me that more and more people are understanding what it is about.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Moon was diagnosed with breast cancer 11 years ago and the disease has been in remission for 10 years. Moon is now an advocate for breast health and reminds women 40 and older that knowing their own bodies and going for yearly mammograms is imperative.</p><br><p></p><br><p>According to Moon, an annual mammogram was the reason her cancer was caught so early.</p><br><p></p><br><p>I do thank the Lord every day that I am here, said Moon. It s a message of hope.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Local grocery store, Safeway, is also partnering with the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation (CBCF) in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.</p><br><p></p><br><p>CBCF volunteers will be selling Pink Ribbon Pink Ups, a vintage pinup style calendar for $10.99 at the Canada Safeway throughout the month of October.</p><br><p></p><br><p>The calendar highlights breast cancer survivors of all ages and walks of life and promotes a healthy body image for women during and after breast cancer treatment. All proceeds from the calendar will go to the CBCF.</p><br><p></p><br><p>It s a celebration of women who have survived breast cancer, said Nicole Turenne, manager of marketing and community for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation s Prairie and NWT region. These women are very proud of what they have gone through. It is a strong message of hope from people who have lived with it and survived.</p><br><p></p><br><p>This month, Safeway Canada is also partnering with Food Network chef Ricardo, whose wife is a breast cancer survivor, to create additional funds and awareness for the foundation.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Safeway customers are invited to make a contribution at the checkout. When a $2 contribution is made, customers will receive a limited edition Ricardo recipe book and five AIR MILES reward miles.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Ricardo and Canada Safeway will also dedicate 25 per cent of the sales of the Ricardo cookware line to the CBCF.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Turenne encourages people to take part in the Safeway campaigns.</p><br><p></p><br><p>It is just a really great way to get involved and show your support, she said, adding that volunteers are also needed to sell the calendars. Our vision is creating a future without breast cancer it is a great way to come out and support the cause and join the movement.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Over $9.6 million has been raised by Canada Safeway for the CBCF during the past 10 years. The money has gone to research and early detection.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Turenne said more people are surviving breast cancer.</p><br><p></p><br><p>Since 1986, the breast cancer death rate has decreased by about 40 per cent and it is currently at its lowest since 1950, she said. The likelihood of a woman living five years out is 88 per cent. It does demonstrate that what we have been doing has been working.</p><br>

Haugen has been racing pigeons since 1953 when he started as a young boy. But over the years he never outgrew his love for racing pigeons."I've just always been fascinated by it," said the 69yearold Haugen. "These are amazing animals. They'll come home from anywhere. They'll fly through anything. And they'll die trying to get home."Years ago, when his kids were in high school, Haugen began feeling guilty about the time he was spending with his birds. He ended up selling his flock."And I was miserable," he admitted. "My wife finally said, 'Shoot, get the birds back. I liked you better then.'"And these days he's as passionate as ever. "I haven't been able to shake it," he said with a smile. "I just enjoy seeing (the pigeons) come home."Pigeon racing might not be as popular as football or basketball, but there are enthusiasts all around the United States and elsewhere in the world, particularly Europe, South Africa and Australia. There are several clubs in and around Snohomish County, where members share their love for raising and racing homing pigeons."If you like sports, this has all the thrills," said Herb Cartmell, who is president of Woodinville's SnoKing Racing Pigeon Club and is also a board member of the American Racing Pigeon Union. He occasionally buys pigeons, but more often he raises his own. Trying to find the right breeding mix is part of the sport's appeal, he said."I know each one of them, and each year I'll switch the breeding around," he said. "You're trying to improve the blood all the time. If you get one excellent flyer out of six babies a year, that's good. Each bird has a distinguishing leg band and they are timed to the second with special equipment. On occasion, birds get injured and even lost."Some days the bell just doesn't ring for them," Haugen said. "They just don't figure it out, for whatever reason. But they'll come home <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">cheap football shirts</a> days, weeks and even months later."A pigeon racer, Cartmell said, "gets to be the team's general manager, doctor, trainer and coach. You have to train these birds, like you would any athlete. And you have to keep them healthy, so you have to make sure they get enough diet, rest and exercise. So you put a lot of work into these birds."And you expect them all to come home, but sometimes things happen," he said. "There are obstacles and there are risks, but it's a great thrill to watch a bird come home from 200 miles away."</p>

<title>helped by either taking a wish card from a host</title>

<![CDATA[ <p>income students for school</p><br><p></p><br><p>Milpitas based nonprofit organization Family Giving Tree is keeping its head in the game and eyes on the prize of equipping at least 15,000 lowincome children with the right tools to start school this fall. Pickups will begin Aug. "Like a bag with some paper and pencils even comes in to the picture? No. It can't." She likens the organization's efforts to that of an Olympic athlete. Only it happens once a year, not every four."We've been to Cisco for their annual basketball tournament, arena football with the San Jose Sabercats, golf and bocce with our friends at NARPM and Santa <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts uk</a> Clara County Federal Credit Union's first Youth Volunteer Day, to <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts</a> name just a few," Cullenbine said. "Each of these events generates more excitement and anticipation of our collective work in reducing the barriers for lowincome students to fully engage in their learning."The materials were donated the last two months for the organization's annual Back to School Drive, where individuals <br><br>helped by either taking a wish card from a host company, shopping for a new backpack and filling it with the recommended school supplies or providing funds by mail or online so the organization could purchase kits from vendors."Of our 15,000 target, we initially estimated that between 8,000 and 9,000 would be physical backpacks donated by individuals," BrattonKearns said. "The balance is, one, our forecast of what online giving will provide and for which we have prepurchased and two, some amount we have budgeted just to buy extra backpacks with. I'm guessing online donations will represent about 4,000 to 5,000."Last week representatives from more than 350 businesses, civic groups and individuals dropped off their donations to the Back to School Drive warehouse at 560 Cottonwood Drive in Milpitas, which was donated for a second year by iStar Financial. "I'd estimate that over 90 percent of what we are going to receive has arrived, either directly from supporters or via bulk purchases we have made," BrattonKearns said Aug. 3. Sevenhundred people are expected to volunteer in different capacities during the twohour shifts through Aug. 17. 3 while approximately 20 Cisco volunteers stopped by Monday. "On Saturday there was a family in here, a mom and her two daughters, who started volunteering when they're 3 and they're 8. They are expecting approximately 5,000 total from the firm. "I think we were all just absolutely shocked, in a great way," Cullenbine said of the company's outreach. She said it was hard to anticipate what they would <a href="http://www.revafinland.com/">football shirts uk</a> bring in."You never know working with a company like eBay," Cullenbine said. "Whatever it is they turn out to do is not gonna be small; it's gonna be big and <br><br>beautiful. But you just can't imagine."She hopes this effort alone increases the number of children Family Giving Tree's drive can serve."The goal is 15,000 but we made that goal without eBay," Cullenbine said. "I'm now praying that we hit 20 because if eBay gives us 5,000 then why shouldn't we be able to get 20,000?"San Francisco Bay Areabased Peet's Coffee Tea acted as the drive's primary public sponsor for the Back to School Drive this year. "Throughout our 46year history, supporting children and families in need has been at the heart of our value of responsibility to nourish the local communities where we do business," said Erica Hess, senior manager of community relations for Peet's. "We, along with our employees and customers, are proud to once again partner with Family Giving Tree in support of their Back to School Drive.</p><br>
