Covering the intersection of new things and mass markets.
Nvidia Chief Executive Jen-Hsun Huang is nothing if not bold. He drives a red Ferrari. He wears a leather jacket. And just ask him sometime about the fried chicken business…
Huang's latest suggestion: rather than trying to keep up, Intel should put its cutting-edge semiconductor factories to work building chips from companies such as Nvidia, Qualcomm, Apple, and Texas Instruments .
"Why not be a foundry for all the mobile companies?" Huang told a group of reporters Wednesday evening. "There's no shame in that."
Intel's response: thanks but no thanks.
"We have a small nascent foundry business, but our focus with our SOCs (systems on a chip) is really on Intel based platforms," said Intel spokesman Jon Carvill. "Our process technology is a huge advantage going forward in 2012 and 2013, so our focus at this time is on building Intel products, not on building products for our competitors."
Huang's remarks come as Intel is preparing an all out assault on the smartphone processor business. Last year, smartphone sales surpassed personal computer sales for the first time — and Intel needs all the volume it can get to keep its factories at the cutting edge.
Meanwhile Intel is quietly moving to build chips based on designs from other companies. Earlier this year semiconductor designer Tabula said Intel will build the company's 3D programmable logic devices using Intel's latest 22-nanometer manufacturing process.
That move edges Intel towards territory long-dominated by chip foundries such as TSMC and Globalfoundries.
Companies building mobile processors based on ARM's designs at such foundries are getting close to the point where they can do serious damage to Intel, Huang argues.
Microsoft's latest operating system, Windows 8, which arrives later this year, will run on tablets built around Nvidia's mobile processors as well as chips from Intel and Advanced Micro devices, Huang pointed out.
The problem, for Intel, is that Nvidia's Tegra 3 mobile processors are cheap. Meanwhile, Intel has an enormous manufacturing infrastructure to maintain.
Where are all the CrApple iFad 3 Media Hack pimping Stories???? Notice how they've all dried up suddenly since iFads are roasting your chessnuts boys and gals ……. you know. I suspect all the CrApple Media Hacks at Forbers have been told to shut up till the HEAT blows over.
Intel MUST bring all its manufacturing operations to USA. It will be a great boost to employment and the economy.
A bold statement, irresponsible (lost my HP laptop due to nvidia graphic defective), I wish Nvidia would just burn like fried chicken. but, I like to know about his fried chicken business…….
So, for the last few years, Nvidia's CEO has used almost every public statement he's made about intel, to spit on the company. Now he wants intel to work with him? Intel is right, thankls but no thanks.

Chilling video shows the moments right after the shooting on Fidelity Street in College Station Monday.
The cell phone video was recorded by Rigo Cisneros a former Army medic who lives on Fidelity.
Cisneros tells News Three that he heard the gunshots and went outside to see if he could help.
Police held him back until the scene was cleared and then he helped perform CPR on Brazos County Constable Brian Bachmann, who later died.
Cisneros said he also briefly spoke to the alleged shooter, Thomas Caffall, who asked for forgiveness for shooting Bachmann.
Caffall was later shot by authorities. He also died of his injuries.

The Italian conductor Gianandrea Noseda, making his Los Angeles Philharmonic debut at Walt Disney Concert Hall on Thursday, brought an exhilarating, Russian-sounding fervor to an all-Rachmaninoff program. No wonder Noseda became the first foreigner chosen as principal guest conductor of St. Petersburg's Mariinsky Theatre in 1997. (He was last seen here in 2001, conducting "The Queen of Spades" for Los Angeles Opera.)

PORTLAND -- It was an absolutely beautiful day for the Timbers to start preseason training at Jeld-Wen Field. It's been almost exactly two months since the 2013 season ended and what a season it was.
"I told the guys after the last game it was one of the best years of my life. I hope this year is just as good or better," said Coach Caleb Porter
The Timbers finished first in the West with 57 points. In fact, they lost only five times during the regular season all year before losing to Real Salt lake in the Western Conference final series.
Close to 30 players worked out in the first of five days of training at Jeld-Wen. They have added a few new players including a pair from Argentina. One of them is 30-year-old forward Gaston Fernandez.
"With the guys we've added, first and foremost, we felt like they fit what we wanted. We felt like they were good professionals -- good guys. We felt they would fit into the team, which is always important," Porter said.
Timbers midfielder Darlington Nagbe likes the newcomers.
"Caleb, what makes him really good," said Nagbe, "is he finds the right players that come and that meshes with the group real well. He brought in Gaston. I played with him today, so he did a good job and I'm excited to keep playing with him."
Team captain Will Johnson is excited for the challenge facing this year's team.
"As a professional," Johnson said, "consistency is the number one thing that's the hardest to accomplish. You see guys have good years and bad years and kind of up and down, but the best pros all around the world, consistency year in and year out. They play at the highest level and that's our challenge this year as a team is to stay as consistent and be as good or better than we were last year."
The Timbers leave on Thursday to continue training in Tucson, Ariz. They play their first preseason match on Feb 1 against Sporting Kansas City. The weather should be nice in Tucson, but it was fantastic during day one of training at Jeld-Wen field and dry.
"I heard there was going to be a lot of rain when I first came," said Timbers Defender Pa Madou Kah, who is from Gambia in West Africa, "but, I'm loving it. So, I can't complain, it's almost like being back in Africa, just 40 or 50 degrees less, but I'm' enjoying it."
Things will be heating up during the regular season. The Timbers MLS season opener is March 8 against Philadelphia at Jeld-Wen Field.

Boston, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - Tuukka Rask stopped 21 shots, as Boston clipped Phoenix, 2-1, at TD Garden. Zdeno Chara and Jarome Iginla tallied for the Bruins, who extended their season-high win streak to seven games. Claude Julien also recorded his 300th win as Boston head coach. His record with the franchise over six-plus seasons stands at 300-161-61. Lauri Korpikoski provided the lone goal and Mike Smith made 18 saves for the Coyotes, who finished 2-2 on their four-game road swing.
Final Score: Carolina 4, Buffalo 2
Raleigh, NC (SportsNetwork.com) - Jiri Tlusty scored the winning goal with 6:17 to play as the Carolina Hurricanes took a 4-2 win over the Buffalo Sabres. Alexander Semin posted a goal and an assist while Jeff Skinner also lit the lamp for the Hurricanes, who have won their past two. Cam Ward stopped 21 shots in the win. Drew Stafford and Tyler Ennis scored for the Sabres, who have lost their past four games. Michal Neuvirth was peppered with 54 shots and stopped 51.
Final Score: San Jose 4, Columbus 3 (SO)
Columbus, OH (SportsNetwork.com) - Joe Pavelski netted the lone shootout goal as San Jose edged Columbus, 4-3, and joined Anaheim atop the Pacific Division standings. A fourth consecutive win gave the Sharks 93 points, matching a Ducks team that is winless in four straight games (0-2-2). Pavelski used a move to the backhand and beat Blue Jackets goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky on the stick side to conclude the second round. San Jose netminder Alex Stalock didn't have to make a third save as the puck rolled off the stick of Cam Atkinson. Patrick Marleau scored two goals and Stalock stopped 35 shots for San Jose, which avoided losing four in a row on the road against Columbus. Bobrovsky was beaten three times on 27 shots as the Blue Jackets had their home winning streak snapped at five games. The point gained, however, is valuable with the team in the thick of the Eastern Conference playoff race.
Final Score: Tampa Bay 5, Florida 4
Tampa, FL (SportsNetwork.com) - Steven Stamkos scored his first two points since returning from a broken leg to help the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 5-4 win over the Florida Panthers. Stamkos had a goal and an assist, while Sami Salo, Tyler Johnson, Michael Kostka and Ryan Callahan also scored for the Lightning, who snapped a five-game slide. Valtteri Filppula gave three assists while Ben Bishop stopped 23 shots. Brandon Pirri had a goal and an assist while Tomas Fleischmann, Scottie Upshall and Quinton Howden all scored for the Panthers, who have lost their past three. Dan Ellis made 23 saves in defeat.

Case Details
The navigation select boxes below will direct you to the selected page when you hit enter.
The Court upheld a decision of local justices to dismiss an information that the defendant "did cruelly ill-treat, abuse, and torture a certain animal" contrary to the Cruelty to Animals Act 1849, s. 2 (1). The Act made it an offence to ill-treat, abuse, or torture an animal, and thereby established three separate offences from which the prosecutor should have elected. Note: Although the 1949 Act has been repealed, similar language appears in the Protection of Animals Act 1911, s 1(1)(a), and presumably the same reasoning applies to that statutory provision.
Although a local authority may not adopt a policy of not enforcing certain laws or not enforcing them against certain types of parties, it may nevertheless make rational choices with respect to the use of its enforcement powers in order to deploy its limited resources in the most efficient and effective manner.
Held: The word "wilfully", when used in the context of an offence prohibiting cruelty to children, "means that the act is done deliberately and intentionally, not by accident or inadvertence, but so that the mind of the person who does the act goes with it" (per Lord Russell of Killowen C.J.). Note: the word "wilfully" is occasionally an element of animal welfare offences, such as that of wilfully, without any reasonable cause or excuse, administering a poisonous drug or substance to an animal (Protection of Animals Act 1911, s 1(1)(d)).

The BBC is reporting that former News International executive Rebekah Brooks will testify to a parliamentary committee examining the phone hacking scandal.
Brooks once edited the News of the World tabloid, where the offenses allegedly occurred.
She was arrested Sunday on hacking charges, so her appearance had been in question.
Rupert and James Murdoch are to be grilled by British lawmakers Tuesday over the scandal.

FORT COVINGTON — A Connecticut man was arrested following a traffic stop.
Darron Yelling, 46, of Stamford was taken into custody at about 2:20 a.m. Oct. 22 on State Route 37 following a traffic stop by Malone-based State Police.
Police said Yelling was allegedly speeding and was found to be driving without a valid license.
He was charged with first-degree facilitating aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, a felony. Yelling was also issued tickets for unlawful possession of marijuana and speeding in excess of 55 mph.
Yelling was arraigned and sent to Franklin County Jail where he was later released on $1,000 bail.

The following is from the Sept. 18, 2007, edition of The Dallas Morning News. Rita Kirk, professor of Corporate Communications & Public Affairs at SMU, was a source for this story.

The Dallas Morning News
The silence is eerie.
No TV or radio advertisements. No colorful mailers. No billboards or lawn signs cajoling Dallasites to "Say yes!" or "Vote no!" on a citywide ballot proposition that in seven weeks will determine the fate of a planned toll road inside the Trinity River Corridor's levee walls.
Contrast that with this year's mayoral race, in which candidates launched their citywide media campaigns months before May's general election.
"The debate isn't in the coffee shops yet. It's really slow in ramping up," said Rita Kirk, a Southern Methodist University communications and public affairs professor. "There are plenty of things that could create buzz about this vote, but both sides will have to move fast."
So what's the delay?

The Tribune-Star
A new advertising director has joined the Tribune-Star team.
Julie Killion began her new assignment Monday. A 14-year veteran of the newspaper industry, she has been with Community Newspaper Holdings Inc. — the parent company of the Tribune-Star — for the past eight years.
"I'm really excited to be in this area. This is a great town," Killion said of Terre Haute, commending the community for the influence of five higher education institutions and a strong arts culture. "This is a pretty town, with a lot of local businesses, so there are a lot of places to explore."
The move here is a Midwest homecoming of sorts for Killion, who grew up in the city of Marion in southern Illinois and graduated from Eastern Illinois University at Charleston, about an hour west of Terre Haute.
Killion comes to Indiana from Texas, where she was publisher of the Weatherford Democrat. She will continue in her role as a vice president of sales and marketing for CNHI, working with the company's newspapers and websites in Indiana.
"We are fortunate to have someone of Julie's caliber to come to Terre Haute and lead our ad department," said B.J. Riley, publisher of the Tribune-Star. "Julie's vast experience in multimedia platforms will be a great benefit to the staff and to our customers."
Killion is excited about the community spirit she has found in the Wabash Valley, and she hopes to become active in community organizations and charities.
"I'm really excited about the products that the Tribune-Star has that can help businesses reach the whole market," she said. "The truth is that more people are reading newspapers now than in the past 50 years. It's just in a different way."
While those in broadcast media might claim that newspapers are a dying industry, Killion said that web and social media now allow newspapers to reach people on a different level, in addition to the traditional readers who look forward to their printed newspapers showing up at their doorsteps each day.
"On any given day, probably 75,000 people read the Tribune-Star, whether on paper or online," she said. "So, we're really excited about finding ways for businesses to reach that audience."
For more information about the Tribune-Star, go online to www.tribstar.com. Or, call Killion in the advertising department at 812-231-4228. Her email address is email@example.com Newspaper Holdings Inc. is a privately owned local media company serving 150 communities in 24 states. Based in Montgomery, Ala., CNHI operates 80 daily newspapers, 48 nondailies and numerous specialty publications in the Midwest, South and East.

Room to RoamWritten by Jill Lawless | Published February 8, 2010
For my son's seventh birthday, we forewent Chuck E  Cheese, and packed up the car for a San Antonio daytrip. Our main destination—the San Antonio Zoo, which we had only half-explored when he was three. I visited the zoo many times as a child on summer stays with my grandmother, who, in the interest of preserving my good time, gracefully masked her sadness over the pacing cats and other creatures in tight enclosures.
Fast forward to last Saturday, one of those rare, rain-free days of late—contented grizzlies snoozed in the sunshine, Lucky the elephant trumpeted (loudly), brilliant lorikeets sucked nectar, then flitted from branch to branch, and blubbery hippos balletically swam in the new Africa Live exhibit. Is it the Alaskan Peninsula? The African savanna? The Australian rainforest? Lake Malawi? None of the above, but the zoo has come a long way. Grandma would be glad.
Check out the March issue of TH, which includes a Speaking of Texas piece on adventurer Frank Buck, for whom Gainesville's zoo is named.Â
Yoga amidst the BODIESWritten by Lori Moffatt | Published February 5, 2010
A few months ago, I joined a group of my girlfriends at the Blanton Museum of Art for one of the museum's monthly "Third Thursday†programs. We enjoyed the opening of a new exhibit, a stroll through the museum's permanent collection, and live music in the foyer, but the main draw for us was the opportunity to take a yoga class in one of the galleries, surrounded by beautiful paintings. The refined ambiance lent a whole new energy to our poses, and we were able to view the works from a new perspective. I mean this quite literally, as we were standing on our heads at least once during the class.
I'm intrigued by the many special activities museums are hosting to attract new audiences: Happy hours with live music, film screenings, book discussions, hands-on art lessons, and now, yoga and other exercise classes.
So my interest was piqued when I got word of a yoga class (Feb. 21 and Mar. 14) in conjunction with the controversial touring exhibition BODIES, currently at the West End Marketplace in Dallas (866/312-3931; www.bodiesdallas.com). In case you haven't heard of it, BODIES showcases real human bodies, preserved by a process called "plastination,†so that you can study human anatomy in detail—muscles, organs, blood vessels—the whole kit and kaboodle. I saw a similar (competing, I think) show (BodyWorlds) at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, a few years ago, and I found it simultaneously fascinating and macabre; it certainly made me mindful of how complicated the human body is. I'm not a squeamish sort. But doing yoga amidst it all? That could be too real even for me. Â

You ARE TexasWritten by Lois M. Rodriguez | Published February 3, 2010
Everything's big in Texas, in fact, Texas is so big, it's gone global ;) Or so it's been pointed out in a Facebook thread that started with "Good morning, Texas!"
New Mexico and Australia chimed in - "What about us?!" To which we replied with the simple truth: "If you love Texas, you ARE Texas."Â That good morning goes a long way. That's how Texas rolls.:)
So now, I'm curious where, in the world, are you if you're not living in Texas now? Did you use to live here? Just wish you could live here? What is it you love so much about it?

Groundhog Day Report (CMigrator copy 1)Written by Super User | Published February 2, 2010
Having just made my annual end-of-January trip to southeast Texas, I can report that despite any prognostications from Punxsutawney Phil, the signs of spring's approach are visible in at least parts of the Lone Star State. I didn't see any wildflowers except for dandelions and henbit, but peach trees are beginning to bud and lettuce is harvest-ready in backyard gardens. Best of all, bluebonnet seedlings are popping up in pastures and along roadsides.
I know, we've got at least a month of winter left and probably some nasty weather ahead, but I love the anticipation of February. It doesn't hurt that we're now working on our annual wildflower story in the April issue—22 pages that spotlight four wildflower drives in different parts of Texas. My prediction: If you don't already have wildflower fever, you will by the time that issue arrives, in early March. Anticipate it, and be ready to take a drive.

Dinner is Served—TrailersideWritten by Jane Wu | Published February 2, 2010
The trailer-café craze that has consumed Austin tends to be a mostly daytime affair, with many if not most in my neighborhood rolling up their windows by sunset. I was delighted to discover that Odd Duck Farm to Trailer at 1219 S. Lamar begins serving at 5 p.m., perfect for "cook's night out†(the "cook†in this case being me).
An intriguing menu, which changes daily, also piqued my interest. Odd Duck offers up appetizers and entrées that adhere to the rediscovered "nose-to-tail†philosophy, which means using ingredients from local farms, and with meats, using every edible part. (Read more about restaurants using nose-to-tail principles, including nearby Olivia in March 2010 TH Taste).
At prices ranging from $3-7, Odd Duck offers an affordable foodie foray from an inventive chef, Bryce Gilmore. Gilmore, a California Culinary Academy alumnus who has worked at Moonshine and Wink in Austin, Café 909 in Marble Falls, Boulevard in San Francisco, and Montagna at the Little Nell in Aspen, got his start in the kitchen of his father Jack Gilmore's Z'Tejas Grill in Austin.
For my dinnertime adventure, I chose rabbit braised in pale ale and mustard with poached duck egg over creamy turnip grits. A hint of Parmesan in this luscious stew gave the dish a slightly tart and pleasantly salty taste. The flavor and texture reminded me of Chinese jook or congee (rice porridge), especially when combined with the turnip grits. The rabbit was tender, and had a slightly smoky aroma, which further enhanced the combination.
The entree portions tend to be on the small side, so on my next visit, I'll be sure to order more!
Pack light, go greenWritten by Lori Moffatt | Published January 28, 2010
We're starting to put together the April issue, and one story about sustainable travel especially holds my interest. The author makes the point that people in general are growing more aware of lessening their impact on the environment when they travel, and she provides suggestions on restaurants that source their food locally, hotels that make an effort to be energy-efficient, and destinations that focus on conservation. It's a topic I suspect we'll revisit from time to time, especially since most places don't expect us to relinquish any of our creature comforts. In most cases, after all, conservation is about efficiency.
 I was poking around on the Web to learn more about this timely topic, and I stumbled across a concept that hadn't occurred to me—one aspect of traveling green means packing light.  Obviously, transporting less weight means using less energy. As someone who has made great strides in the art of packing but has yet to master it, I appreciate any and all advice about lessening the packing burden.
  I've erred on the side of packing practically half my closet for a two-day trip to Dallas, but I've also erred on the side of packing a single T-shirt and a pair of pants for a weeklong (unfortunately unfashionable) trip to Costa Rica. These days I'm shooting for the middle ground. A packing list helps—that way I don't wake up in the middle of the night wondering if I've remembered to stash my sunglasses in the suitcase; I can throw them in my case, check them off the list, and move on.  But still I recently went to Saint Louis without any socks. Go figure.
 I'll be making trips to Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, and beyond in coming months, and I imagine I'll wrestle with the packing conundrum each trip. Like I said, I could use helpful suggestions. Bring 'em on, please.Â
All A-Twitter About BirdsWritten by Kirsti Harms | Published January 27, 2010
A Day in Fayette CountyWritten by Kirsti Harms | Published January 25, 2010
Sunday I decided to bird around La Grange. The Travis Audubon Society is offering a series of monthly field trips called the Outer Limits Bird Survey. It's a chance to explore some of the less-well-traveled counties around Austin. This weekend's survey was in Fayette County, so it became my excuse to check out some parks I'd never visited. The group spent most of the day around Lake Fayette at the two LCRA parks on its north shores—Oak Thicket and Park Prairie (www.lcra.org). While these parks are very popular with fishermen, I really enjoyed the hiking trails along the lake. They traverse a mix of habitats—woods, water and prairie, which makes for more diverse (and interesting) birding. I'd like to come back during migration—who knows what may show up here. I was also curious about the cabins at Oak Thicket and plan to check those out some day for a longer weekend trip.
By lunchtime Sunday this group was ready for a break (some had been at it since early Saturday). We stopped at Las Fuentes in La Grange for a Mexican food fix and to compare notes. The species total came to 90. Not too shabby for a weekend's work!
Before heading home I decided to check out Monument Hill and Kreische Brewery State Historic Site (www.tpwd.state.tx.us). It's a scenic little park on a bluff overlooking the Colorado River and La Grange. And though I've seen pictures of the monument, I didn't realize that the environment is kind of unusual for this area, it's a small outcrop of Hill Country. The canyon trail around the ruins of the old brewery and along the little creek felt like I was west of Austin. It was a very relaxing way to end the day.
Winery Passport toasts to successWritten by Lori Moffatt | Published January 25, 2010
I just received word that the Texas Department of Agriculture's wine-marketing folks are celebrating the 1st anniversary of its popular "Winery Passport†promotion with additional incentives for wine travelers. What's a wine passport, you ask? Here's the deal: Request one (it's a little booklet) online. Then, each time you visit a Texas winery (more than 180 to choose from), write its number down in your passport. You can redeem your passport for wine-related prizes, ranging from a Texas wine journal (4 winery visits) or a corkscrew (16 visits) to full wine-related weekends, complete with private wine tastings, sommelier dinners, and overnight lodging. (The big packages require more than 200 winery visits.)
Seems as though there might be a good money-making opportunity in chauffeured wine excursions. Would it be fun to pile onto a bus or van and tour a group of Texas' almost-200 wineries? Personally, I think this is a great idea.
On another note, this weekend I learned another acceptable "descriptor†used by wine aficionados. I had opened a bottle of grenache-syrah to use in a fancy beef stew, and I poured myself a glass to sample while dinner simmered. While the wine tasted fine, I heard myself say to my dinner guests, "Well, this smells a bit like…..old socks.â€
My friend Kim told me that in wine circles, this aroma is called "barnyard.†And it's not necessarily a bad thing.
PlaycationsWritten by Lori Moffatt | Published January 22, 2010
A few years ago, when economy woes hit the headlines and everybody reined in their vacation spending, travel-biz folks started talking up the concept of the "Staycation†(whooping it up close to home) and its related concept, the "Daycation.†But I just now received the strangest email, from a company promoting what it calls a "Haycationâ€â€" aimed at city dwellers who want to explore the country—assuming, I guess, that all country adventures include a hayride.Â
 So I started wondering what'll come next. Gaycation—if it hasn't been thought of yet, it will soon. Smart cities like Houston have already started promoting travel opportunities for gay and lesbian travelers, so I expect we'll see more of this. What about Praycations—trips to various places of worship and/or meditation? Nowaycations for workaholics who require WiFi in hotels, parks, restaurants, and sites they visit? Lamécations, for sartorial-minded travelers who want to ditch their conservative workaday wear for glitzy spangles à la 1960s Las Vegas? Outstaycations, for travelers on a budget who crash on friends' and relatives' sofas and don't offer to clean up or buy dinner? Disobeycations, for travelers who are upstanding citizens during the workweek but want to explore their rebellious sides? Olécations, for folks who want to practice Spanish and familiarize themselves with Texas' Hispanic heritage?
 Paycations (blow the paycheck on something extravagant). Raycations (sun and fun). Spraycations (could be sailing, could be a graffiti workshops). Cafecations (tour of pie and coffee). Ospreycations (for bird specialists, of course.) Résumécations (seeing the sights while looking for a job). Outrécations (outrageous, unpredictable, and a lot of fun).
 What say you? Am I on to something?

Nat Young Continues Winning Streak
After six months of preliminary events across the country, the 10th annual Rip Curl GromSearch came to a close at Salt Creek on Sunday. Top amateur surfers from the East Coast, West Coast and Hawaii were ready to test their mettle at the National Finals, and, despite morning rains, the level of competition was high throughout the day.
Oakley's Nat Young, fresh off his win at the O'Neill Coldwater Classic, won the Boys Under 16 division.
"I've always seen the other kids win the trip every year," explained a still-dripping Nat Young on the awards stage, "and I've always wanted it to be my turn. I'm so stoked. It should be an awesome experience." (Young also pocketed a cool $1000 for his first-place prize.)

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings fans the latest news and inside information on the Brewers
Spring training camps actually dealing with snow
Phoenix -- Kind of a weird feeling walking into Maryvale Park this morning and seeing snow on the edge of the infield grass after being dumped off the tarp from yesterday's storms.
Lots of standing water on the warning track also, and the temperature is only 51.
But hey, it could be worse. The Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies had to alter their plans dramatically this morning because their complex at Salt River Fields was covered in graupel -- a combination of hail and snow.
The Diamondbacks are actually moving over to a different park to work out in the afternoon now.
Weird deal, considering this is the Cactus League.
Anyway, the Milwaukee Brewers will get back to business today after having an abbreviated workout yesterday due to the weather.
Here are a few of the tidbits gleaned from manager Ron Roenicke's morning meeting with the media:
-- There's been no date set yet for Mat Gamel's knee surgery. He did say a few days ago that he wanted to get a second opinion, so he may not even have had that yet.
-- Kelvim Escobar will throw his first bullpen session today. He said earlier that he was ready to go when he reported to camp last week, but has been held back until now.
Escobar, who's trying to win a spot in the bullpen, has pitched just one game in the major leagues since 2007 because of recurring shoulder issues.
He did pitch without issue in Venezuela over the winter, and the Brewers will rely on him to let them know how he wants to proceed.
"If he's fine we may try to go a little quicker with him," said Roenicke. "That's a conversation that Rick (Kranitz) will have with him. Escy's been around long enough that he knows what he needs to do, and if he wants to do a little bit more we'll try to do that for him."
-- Wily Peralta, one of the young hurlers trying for a spot in the rotation, is a little behind after an abbreviated second bullpen session.
"He was a little stiff after his first one and didn't need to push it, so we just backed him off," said Roenicke.
-- Aramis Ramirez will play in the Brewers' exhibition opener Saturday against the Oakland A's at Maryvale Park, along with most of those players taking part in the World Baseball Classic.
Roenicke did say he was unsure if Ryan Braun would play, however.
-- With regard to Ramirez, with the extra week built into the schedule this year because of the WBC, Roenicke will have lots of flexibility to work the third baseman in and out as the two try to get him to avoid his traditional slow start at the plate.
"It's not necessarily just making sure he has way more at-bats," said Roenicke. "It may be we're starting earlier and we'll give you a lot of days in between where you're not doing anything."
-- Everyone will play in tomorrow's simulated game.
Roenicke said the format will be two innings, with the third used specifically to work on bunt situations.

"Only" 51 degrees.....those poor guys!
Yes and those geniuses that blame any weather event on man made global warming, rather, man made "climate change", continue to spew theory after theory on how man is controlling nature.
Maybe Gamel should get a different surgeon for his operation.Second opinion is wise but a differnt surgeon would be even wiser.

Great article. But do you think that the Twins should give up on the only pitcher on the 40 man roster who seems to have a real chance of being an ace next year? I am hoping that they sign him to a multi-year incentive laden deal.
If they trade Liriano, the FO not only gives up on '12 but also '13
There is no way to field a professional pitching staff next year without Liriano. - this is the sorry state of the Rotation.
So if he goes, might as well try to trade Willingham, Span, and both of the M&M brothers
So what kind of a contract will Liriano get in free agency this winter? What would it take for the Twins to sign him to a 2, 3, or 4 year contract?? He drives you crazy with his inconsistency but with his high upside, it could be worth the risk, at the right price. And they could always trade him next year at the trade deadline.... In 20013, if he has truly turned the corner and the Twins still suck, then they could truly get some gooooood prospects.
Keep him and offer arbitration. If he continues to pitch this way he will turn it down and we will get a comp pick. That pick will probably have higher upside then what we get for him.
There is zero chance Frankie signs with the Twins long term. What can the Twins offer: a losing team, terrible pitching coach and a medical staff that causes more injuries than they prevent.
Frankie must be traded but sadly the game has passed Terry Ryan by and he will sit around and lose him with zero compensatio.
There is no good answer to this one. If we try to trade him, we probably wouldn't get anything decent in return, for the reasons mentioned in the article. That begs the question, What's the point? I have no interest in trading for spare parts in the hope a miracle happens and one actually develops into a major leaguer. On the other hand, if we try to sign him to an extension, I just can't see him keeping up this pace. Sooner or later Bad Frankie will return. And unless we offer $12.5M (which would be ludicrous) we won't get a comp pick if he becomes a free agent.
There's zero chance that Liriano signs with the Twins unless they overpay for him and that's not a road I'd like to see the Twins go down.
As for arb you have to make a qualifiing offer to any potential free agents so 1) is Liriano even ranked in the Elias rankings as an A or B?
Anyone else have the feeling that Liriano will succeed for another organization but if he stays with the Twins, it will be more of the same old Liriano?
At which point, of course, another team will tell him exactly the same thing we did (Throw it over the god-damn plate!) only they won't call it "pitch to contact" and we'll label them a genius if he pulls his head out of his butt again.
A trade of Liriano looks like this - beautiful. Get rid of him before you do something dumb like overpay him to stay.
When an organizations entire pitching philosophy is throw the ball over the plate and hopefully down in the zone it wouldn't shock me to see Liriano go kill it elsewhere.
Hell I'd love to see a real pitching coach get his hands on Liriano and clean up his mechanics.
Yeah, I liked that comp to Jackson. Liriano has the ability to be electric but the inability to be even consistently decent. He's either pretty good for awhile or he's one of the worst in baseball for awhile. Not much middle ground. I really hope other teams are swayed by this stretch against the league's worst offenses.
I'm not sure anyone can fix his mechanics DPJ. That seems to be predicated on focus and work-ethic. And, well, this is Frankie we're talking about.
But that's not the point. The point is that Liriano can never seem to hold on to the success he's having... Something goes wrong and he unfolds. Is it his head? Muscle memory? Coaching? I have no idea but it's there and it's real.
Good analysis Parker, thanks!
Trade Liriano! The Twins are rebuilding for the next year or 2, so why pay an average pitcher 12.5 Million for a .500 ball club or less. I realize the upside to Liriano, hence his last 3 starts, but look at his first 6-8 starts this year. My vote is to trade, and try to get a pitching or middle infield prospect. He will not sign with the Twins at years end.
I think they should keep him. If they re-sign Liriano, sign Baker(who has a real live arm when healthy), hope that Gibson is ready, and then sign Grienke as your fourth starter. That would be 4 strong arms with good stuff. Then have Diamond as your other starter--that is a pretty good staff. A lot of big ifs! Also, I think most fans want a competitive team next year. Not a repeat of the last two seasons.
Is Liriano the most frustrating player in not only the history of this franchise, but in all of baseball as well?
I have no idea what I want them to do with Frankie as I am sure he will turn to crappy Liriano again if they sign him to a 2 year deal, but I could very well see him turning into CY Young Liriano if he signs elsewhere...like St. Louis..grrr....

In particular, can and should religious perspectives come into play? If so, under what conditions?
Russell G. Pearce, Edward & Marilyn Bellet Professor of Legal Ethics, Morality, and Religion and codirector of the Louis Stein Center for Ethics and Law at Fordham University School of Law, will discuss "Do Lawyers and Faith-Based Values Belong Together? A Guide to the Perplexing Issues of Legal Ethics and Professionalism" at the Bernard G. Segal Memorial Lecture in Law and Ethics at The Jewish Theological Seminary.
The program will take place at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 1, at JTS, 3080 Broadway (at 122nd Street) in New York City. This lecture has been approved for one (1) CLE credit hour in ethics and professionalism. The course is appropriate for both newly admitted and experienced attorneys.
Professor Pearce teaches, writes, and lectures in the field of professional responsibility. A 1981 graduate of Yale Law School, he has previously clerked for a federal judge, worked at a major law firm, and served as general counsel to the New York City Commission on Human Rights. Professor Pearce has published many articles in legal journals on topics such as public philosophy and legal ethics, and religious lawyering. Recently, he produced a film essay, Revitalizing the Lawyer-Poet: What Lawyers Can Learn from Rock and Roll, based on his scholarship.
The annual Bernard G. Segal Memorial Lecture was established by JTS in honor of the late philanthropist and community leader. Mr. Segal was the first Jewish president of the American Bar Association and the first Jewish chancellor of the Philadelphia Bar Association.
Admission is free, but reservations and valid photo identification are required. Attendees are asked to arrive at least fifteen minutes prior to the program.
For more information and to register, please contact the JTS Department of Public Events at (212) 280-6093.

True Blood Episode 4.9
"Let's Get Out of Here"
Written By: Brian Buckner
Directed By: Romeo Tirone
Original Airdate: 21 August 2011
In This Episode...
Let me put your mind at ease: Sookie is fine. Bill took her home, forced some of his blood down her throat, and healed her right up. She asked for Eric immediately upon waking, but Bill was so relieved to see her awake that he didn't get jealous. Sookie later has a dream where both vamps are trying to seduce her, making her choose. Sookie finally wises up, tells them she is in love with both of them, and instead of her belonging to one of them, they can both belong to you. They seal the deal with a three-way fang-bang. In the dream, of course.
Things between the witches and the vampires are hitting critical mass. Antonia (she becomes enraged if you call her Marnie) now has Eric under her spell, and brings him back to Moon Goddess with her. When Tara questions her motives, and other coven members agree, Antonia casts a spell and holds them hostage. When Sookie breaks into the coven to rescue Eric, Tara threatens her with a gun while telling her with her mind they are being held hostage and must go save Bill. Sookie "rushes" Tara and escapes. She makes it to the hotel where Bill and Nan are holding their Tolerance Festival to warn Bill, who is giving a speech. She is just a little too late. Antonia, Eric, and three vampire guards she picked up along the way are waiting in the balconies. They kill Bill's guards and chaos ensues on the convention floor.
There was so much more going on in this episode. Lafayette-as-Mavis takes Mikey to Hoyt's house (apparently, this was her house way back in the day). She throws Hoyt out at gunpoint, and Hoyt calls Jason, who is with Andy, Arlene, and Terry. They all roll up to Hoyt's house. When talking sense into Lafayette doesn't work, a standoff ensues until Jesus shows up (Arlene called). He talks to Mavis, convincing her that he is a brujo and she is in the wrong place. With her trust gained, he makes her relive that tragic night. She remembers where her baby was buried, beneath a nearby tree. Jesus digs until he finds both her and her baby's skeletal remains. Mavis finally gets to hold her baby one last time, she is at peace, and vacates Lafayette's body.
Also: Debbie declares a truce with Sookie, who reads her thoughts and decides to trust her, even though Debbie is back on the V. Alcide tells Marcus that he wants to move up the ranks of the pack to please Debbie. Marcus is pleased to hear that, and wants Alcide to be his backup when he meets with his ex's new beau. Instead of Sam showing up, it is a shifted Tommy. He gets the shit beat out of him, loses the shift, and Alcide must rescue him. Didn't Alcide meet Sam? Wouldn't he have known who he was the moment "Sam" entered? Sam, meanwhile, is camping with Luna and Emma to get their minds off Marcus. And Jessica and Jason finally have sex.
Dig It or Bury It?
This episode was far superior to last week's episode. This was a surprisingly funny, wacky episode. There was a lot going on. It wasn't too syrupy or romance-y. I am pleased that Sookie finally grew a pair and told Eric and Bill that it was both of them or none - even if it was in a dream. That scene could have been so much hotter - basically it was just Sookie in lingerie between the two of them, kissing Eric, then Bill, then both of them fanging her. There are still three more episodes this season, so there is time.
I feel like Mavis's storyline was wrapped up too quickly, and without much impact. It was almost like filler. I am hoping that she will prove to have more meaning by the end of the season. However, I have been hoping for that from the fairy storyline, and so far that hasn't materialized (outside of Sookie's wuss dreams). And for fuck's sake, please bring back Gary Cole!
Ass Factor
It was a "brief nudity" week. We almost-almost-almost got to see a naked Jessica this week. By next season, I suspect she will go nude. There is a nice - and completely gratuitous - shot of Alcide's ass.
Biting Humor
This episode was particularly funny. The standoff outside Hoyt's house was flat-out slapstick. Hoyt is packing up Jessica's stuff and throwing it into a box labeled "For you, monster." And in the "out of the mouths of babes" categories comes this nugget from Emma: "I hope I turn out to be a shifter and not a werewolf. Because if I am a shifter, I can turn into a bunny and pet myself." Aw.
The "scenes for next week" are becoming more and more oblique. Tonight's preview was a mish-mosh of scenes of generic screaming, kissing, threatening and fighting.

Daily Item
---- — A lifelong passion for the sport and his love of young people prompted Selinsgrove businessman, and former Selinsgrove football player, Todd Benner, at age 44, to launch a second career of sorts.
Benner, owner of Selinsgrove Ford, played for former Selinsgrove coach Bill Scott from 1981 through 1983, and eventually followed his sons through the lower levels of the Selinsgrove program.
He coached eight years in the midget program and another year in junior high, before he got an unexpected opportunity.
Benner got a call last year from Selinsgrove coach Dave Hess, one of Benner's assistant coaches his senior year, asking him to join his high school staff. Benner accepted and has been the Seals' offensive coordinator the past two seasons.
Another added benefit is that Benner gets to continue to coach his son, Logan, a senior starter for the Seals, and eventually, his other son, freshman Garrett, who is playing junior varsity this year.
"Coaching has always been a major passion of mine and just being involved with the kids and getting involved with their lives, I didn't think I had a shot at this level because of working at Selinsgrove Ford and the time it takes to run a business," Benner said this week as the Seals prepare for their annual backyard rivalry game versus Shikellamy.
"Fortunately, the last couple of years, I have hired some guys who have stepped up and taken more of a major role here and make decisions which in turn affords me the chance to do what I wanted to do in life, and that's coach football.
And I am grateful that Dave Hess had the confidence in me to bring me on board,— he said.
Like many families involving a football coach and a football-playing son, the dinner conversation rarely strays far from pigskin talk, whether about high school or the family's favorite NFL team, the Green Bay Packers.
"We are always talking football. We are a football family," said Todd, noting that his wife of nearly 23 years, Lisa, "has really been turned into a football fan."
He said, "We are all about football, whether it is high school or the Packers, we are talking football 24/7."
That's just fine with Lisa, who has no qualms about football taking up so much of their time.
"My most wonderful memories of football are from growing up with my dad (Frank Englund Jr. of Downingtown) on the coach watching football," she said. "He would share different life lessons while I was sitting there watching the game with him."
She said that when her boys started playing and Todd began coaching them, "I was so excited for my boys to have that opportunity to have him as a coach."
She said she thought it would be only for a season.
But that was 11 years ago.
"I thought, pretty soon my boys will be in high school and I will have my husband back," she said.
But after Todd continued to coach his way through the program, she said, "I had to put myself aside. It's been a journey, but an amazing journey and I am willing to sacrifice my time with him for the sake of these amazing boys," she said, referring to the entire team.
"There are boys on that team with no father figure in their life and if Todd can be that guy that they can look up to, I am more than willing...He is a man of integrity and he has sacrificed as well. It is not easy to work two full-time jobs, and he literally has no time to himself.
"He loves football, but, more importantly, he loves the boys and genuinely cares about them as people, not just as football players."
Lisa said her job is easy, supporting him and being there for her husband and sons. I am their biggest fan, but he has got a tall order," she said.
If he were an NFL OC, Benner would probably have lost his coaching job after the Seals, torn about by the suspension of nine players for an off-field incident, finished 1-9, just two years removed from winning the Class AAA state championship.
"I think as soon as our last game was over, the kids put that behind them. They really have had the determination this year just to go out and have fun and play their hearts out, and it is a joy to watch these kids, he said.
He said the current seniors have engulfed the underclassmen, something that does not always happen, and has included them in everything they do.
"It has made this team so close, and it is a neat thing to look at. It doesn't matter if they are freshmen or sophomores, the seniors wrapped their arms around these guys and I think that is a big part of their success," he said, refering to the Seals' 2-0 start. And some coaches might have been more than ready to walk away.
The thought never entered Benner's mind.
"Last year, that whole situation, from a win-and-loss situation, was tough to come back from. But, if you are in coaching for just wins and losses, you are in it for the wrong reason," he said.
"We are in it to build these kids back up, not only the program, but give them confidence for not only this year, but as they go through life. That was the challenge and these kids have stepped up to that," he said.
And, he added, once practice starts, Lisa becomes a football widow.
You will not hear her complain, after knowing what the players and coaches endured a year ago.
"Through the pain of that year, he helped show them the possibilities and (encourage them) to press on and never give up. It is not always easy sticking it out in the tough times, but when you go through trials like that and you can look ahead and see the good that can come out of those trials, that to him is more important," Lisa said.

Reassess your fee schedule
Do you reevaluate your fees more than once a year? Even if you do, how do you know you're setting them appropriately? Do your
fees meet consumer need and compete with other area practices?
Educate your clients
Effective communication with your clients is crucial to good patient care and essential for compliance—which affects your
bottom line. When owners understand why you make certain recommendations and how those recommendations will directly benefit
their horse, they will be much more compliant. If the owner is not present at the time of your visit, follow up with him or
her by the end of the day. Make time to communicate with them by phone or via e-mail—whichever form of communication works
best for them. Develop communication protocols for your practice and be sure to include:
Ways to promote client understanding of and compliance with your medical recommendations and after-care regimen. Show your
team how to do a communications check-up with clients to ensure they understand what you are trying to convey.
Supplement oral communications with visual aids and written instructions.
Reduce misunderstandings with consent forms, accurate fee estimates, and medical handouts.
Document oral and written communication in patient records.
Encourage medical questions and respond in plain English.
Ask clients to fill out customer satisfaction surveys. The best way to know whether or not your clients are satisfied is to
ask them. A satisfied client creates more business by recommending your services to others.

The African brain drain
Africans living in the United States are twice as likely to graduate from college as the average American.These African students often come from families who value education as a way to get on in life and place a high value on working and studying hard.Sara Tsegaye, a straight-A student at UCLA, is one example of that success. Her parents fled Ethiopia in the late 1980s, first to Sudan and then, when Sara was one year old, they moved to San Jose, California.Sara's father works on a mobile ice cream truck in San Jose and her mother used to be a factory worker before she got laid off."We manage to pay for school because I've been working since I was 11," Sara told Reuters Africa Journal. "I've been working with my dad on his ice cream truck, he's been paying me and I've been saving the money. Also I had two jobs in high school and I saved up a lot of money. I understand the value of money."Sara wants to work with an NGO or a non-profit organisation after she graduates. She wants to travel and she wants to make a difference in the world. Other African students say they want to go home once they get a bit of experience in their careers.But Africa is suffering from a massive brain drain just now and it's questionable whether enough of those highly motivated students from America will return home in large enough numbers to really make a difference.

The Athens Review
Athens —
Cynthia Mae Waldo Hagler 80 of Eustace has passed away. Heaven has a beautiful new member as our Mom left us on Tuesday, Oct. 16, to meet Jesus.
Cynthia was born in Hays, Kans. on July 3, 1932 to Charles Stone Waldo and Doris Henrietta Schwaller Waldo. Cynthia was the oldest of four children including Bruce (Reva) of Chagrin Falls, Ohio, Jon, (deceased) and his wife Billie of Houston and her beloved baby sister, Sara (James) of Grand Prairie.
At a young age, the family moved to the Dallas area settling in Grand Prairie. Cynthia graduated Grand Prairie High School in 1950, and attended North Texas State University.
Cynthia met Bill, the love of her life, at Chance Vought Corporation in 1953, where she worked in personnel. They were married on Jan. 21, 1954. They moved to Mabank shortly afterward, and began a life filled with many interests as Bill went to work for the USDA.
Daughters, Debra and Molly, were born during this time and a third daughter, Nancy, was born in 1959, when they moved to Wills Point. Prior to the move to Wills Point, Bill and Cynthia acquired their farm outside Mabank.
They relocated several times throughout Texas including Angleton, Clarksville and Palestine. Cynthia and Bill retired to the farm, a place of many happy memories where they ran cattle, maintained a large garden and entertained kids, grandkids and great-grandkids.
Cynthia was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, as well as the Order of the Beaucant. Cynthia was also a proud member of the Sarah Maples Chapter of the DAR Volunteerism. This was a major part of her life as she supported her daughters as a room mother throughout their school years, and as president of the Westwood Band Booster Club for many years.
Cynthia was a talented seamstress, making her daughters' clothes, prom dresses, as well as the girls' wedding dresses as a labor of love. Mom was an avid reader her entire life, and was also a passionate cross-stitcher, creating many works of art which we enjoy today.
Mom was a beautiful lady that was always ready with a smile, and an "interview" of those she met.
She is survived by her husband of 58 years, Billy Watson Hagler, her daughters and sons-in-law, Debra and Carey McKinney of Elkhart, Molly and Steve Pace of Palestine, Nancy and Randy Greene of Eustace.
Grandchildren include Amanda and Kevin Hollingsworth and Jacob McKinney of Elkhart, Casey and Amy McKinney, of Palestine, Michael and Dara Pace of Palestine, Bradley and Courtney Greene of Kemp. Great-grandchildren Luke, Rilyn, Emma and Seth Hollingsworth, Tate, Coye and soon to arrive baby Ava Leigh McKinney, and Braxton Greene of Kemp.

Edward Ernest Uribe, a 41-year-old male from Carson who was in the middle of last night's standoff and chaotic traffic disruption in South Laguna Beach, is in custody, having been charged with possession of a firearm, possession of a controlled substance, bringing a controlled substance into jail, resisting arrest and being under the influence of a controlled substance, according to the Laguna Beach Police Department.
Laguna Beach Police have issued the following statement:
"Uribe was taken into custody after a nearly five-hour standoff with Laguna Beach Police and Orange County SWAT officers.
Uribe had been involved in a five-vehicle traffic accident at approximately 5:20 p.m. on Coast Highway and Vista Del Sol. Witnesses reported seeing Uribe's vehicle travelling in a reckless manner from the Dana Point area. As officers and fire personnel were arriving on scene, witnesses pointed out that the single occupant of a Mustang had a gun on his lap.
Officers drew their weapons and attempted to have Uribe safely exit his vehicle. However, he did not comply, and during this initial contact, an officer fired one round, striking Uribe's vehicle. Uribe was not injured.
Uribe told the officers that if the car door was pulled open, the car would explode. Officers then retreated to a safer distance. At this point Uribe did not communicate with the officers and remained in his vehicle.
Department policy requires that an extensive investigation be conducted into any officer involved shooting. That investigation is currently underway.
Residents in the immediate area were sent a phone message via the AlertOC system advising them to remain in their homes or businesses.
Assistance was requested from the Orange County Sheriff's Department and their Special Weapons and Tactic Team responded. During the standoff, SWAT personnel had to transport a paramedic team in an armored vehicle through the scene into Three Arch Bay to render aid to a 70-year-old driver involved in the original accident.
In another unusual twist, a Laguna Beach police officer had to transport medical personnel through the scene from Crown Valley Parkway to Mission Hospital, Laguna Beach with a human organ that was urgently needed by at the hospital.
At approximately, 9:15 p.m., tear gas was dispersed into the vehicle and after approximately 30 minutes, Uribe exited the passenger side of his vehicle and collapsed onto the sidewalk. He was taken into custody without further incident.
Uribe was treated at Mission Hospital Laguna Beach for his exposure to the tear gas, but had no other injuries. He was booked at the Laguna Beach Police Department and then transferred to the Orange County Jail, where he is being held on a $50,000 bail.
A loaded .22 caliber handgun was recovered from the suspect's vehicle.

All breeds of dogs as well as wild canines instinctively move along on paths. Dogs were used in parts of Europe to tend sheep by confining them to a specific area surrounded by different surfaces. The dog's high drive makes him want to move and his high level of obedience as well as his instinct to follow paths makes the dog patrol the perimeter of an area, never coming in nor running way off the border, allowing the shepherds to maximize grazing while not using fencing to guard growing crops form the ever hungry sheep. This became a successful method of managing sheep after the Industrial Revolution, and the use of tractors and farm implements, putting vast amounts of land under tillage.
Snow herding benefits both the dog and the sheep. I used snow herding when I first got sheep. The sheep were free and had never seen people let alone dogs that looked distinctly like wolves. Yet feeding them while a dog patrolled quickly got them acclimated to the work. The first dog I really started this way was an older bitch named Diva, the dam of the first herding trial champion of the breed. My nine, wild, free sheep had arrived in late October, and I had only about three acres fenced for them and the horses. Every day I put hay out and shoveled a path around the sheep and their hay in an area that was about 100 feet long by about 60 feet. Then I would let Diva work the border. This was where I wanted the sheep to stay, as I did not want them to try to eat the horses' grain. We worked around those nine sheep all winter. The sheep lambed that April and, by then, they were used to having lunch in the company of a dog. I was able to start to work them up and down my farm lane and take them out for grazing where there were no fences. The sheep we use today are descendents of those original nine ewes. That April, Diva qualified easily for that first PT leg and eleven trials later had not only her PT, but also her HS, HI and HX.
So next time it snows, give your herding trainer a call, push your dog off of the couch, dress up in some warm clothes, and try tending sheep. It is a wonderful way to spend some time out doors doing something both you and your dog will enjoy. A word to the wise, make sure you have warm boots, gloves and a hat! You will never look at a fresh snowfall again without thinking about going herding.

Distorted payments
The Record-Eagle owes Commissioner Lautner an apology for the June 2 "hatchet job" article. The story distorts legitimate payments and reimbursements in an effort to make it seem like she is abusing this compensation.
Mileage reimbursements are not perks, just ask the IRS. Crop insurance is a legal government program to repay for lost crops. It is not compensation.
Should she receive health insurance or receive payment in lieu of the insurance? You criticize her for both.
The article only discourages good people from going into public service. I believe you owe Ms. Lautner an apology.

No permanent ban
The only criminal offenses for which a permanent ban on gun ownership should even be considered are treason against the United States and child molestation. For any other offense, the offenders should have their right to gun ownership restored after successful completion of any probation or parole requirements. Of course any recidivism should become a capital offense.
