If you are reading this you have the right attorney! Colleen Kirby is no halfhearted attorney and not only in the field for the money. This woman knows how to get the facts out that the judge wants to hear. I was fare from being guilty of a second degree assault of a security guard who turned out to be a Howard county police officer. I was looking at prison and fines both in large numbers. I spoke with attorney after attorney. Attorney Kirby cost was more than most I spoke with, but worth more than I could have ever paid. She was spot on in court with all the right words. We call attorney's mouth pieces and this woman will tie them up and feed them back their own words. I was worried the entire time about what was going to happen. I'm from out of state and it's going to be election year. Attorney Kirby had a lot going on and I was worried if she had the time, is she going to be focused on my case, I even questioned if a woman was going to be the right person for me in this case. Well, let me tell you without any doubt Colleen Kirby was hired by her firm because she has the smarts and the guts to stand up for you. She has the respect of the court and her colleges. You hire Colleen Kirby and I believe you will have hired one of Baltimore finest attorney's. I was found not guilty and that says a lot.
I would just like to take a minute here and thank Colleen for being a truly wonderful person. I have a great deal of respect for you. I wish you all the best in everything you do. You have achieved amazing goals and doubt you will exceed in many more. You are the perfect, roll model for any young person and even more so young women. Thanks again Colleen you give Maryland someone to be proud of.
Sincerely Patti Jean Stewart July 29, 2012
Colleen Kirby IS THE BEST LAWYER you can probably get in Maryland I was facing a reckless driving ticket, negligent driving, driving off roadway while passing other vehicle, and driving above posted speed limits, adding up a total of 12 points on my license; After searching for many lawyers Colleen seemed like a good choice and I got a free consultation at her office in the first couple words I knew she was the best choice!! Weeks before the case Colleen made me take a drivers improvement course and obtain my clean past driving record form the MVA. When we got called up for a trial and my officer tried her best to prove me guilty and i thought i was done for however when Colleen spoke to the judge the whole situation was changed and I felt like I was in great hands within 5 minutes Colleen proved to the judge that the officer hadn't paced me right and what I did at the time was to prevent an accident not to be reckless the officer was still stubborn on me getting a ticket so Colleen gave evidence such as pictures of the roadway and used her great knowledge of Traffic Laws to explain to the Judge the situation after hearing both stories the judge smiled and said "not guilty" All my tickets were thrown out!!!! this all happened in less than 5 minutes I was so relieved to hear those two words from the judge while i saw the officer storm out of the room in fury. The officer knew she never stood a chance after Colleen's testifying all in all Colleen Kirby helped me avoid a 12 point ticket and throughout all our meetings she mad me confident and at times I would forget that she was a lawyer and more like she was a good friend I've known for years extremely precise and accurate in the court room very professional lawyer ; I would recommend anyone with any charges whatsoever to Contact Colleen because it will probably be the best decision you can make for yourself for a very fair price and if I ever need representation again I will not even THINK of considering anyone but Colleen!!!
Colleen Kirby Attorney at Law – I couldn't have done it without Colleen Kirby!
by Neal0223
I was visiting relatives in Baltimore County a few months ago. A policeman caught me fair and square in a radar trap going very much over the speed limit and I was given a rather large fine and 2 points for the high speed. I was worried more about the 2 points then the fine because I know how points impact the price of car insurance. The policeman told me, since I had a clean driving record up until now, that I might want to consider going to court to see if I could have the points removed so that it would not be on my license. I thought that was a very good idea, but my next thought was, how in the world am I going to be able to go to court in Baltimore when I live in Florida. I knew this would be very costly because I recently started a new job and I knew I wouldn't be paid for the time I would have to miss, not to mention the cost of flights and another rental car. So instead I contacted Price Benowitz and they referred me to Colleen Kirby. Calling Colleen was the best thing I could have done. She was so nice and told me that she would represent me in court, which made me feel so relieved. She kept me in the loop with everything she was doing either by phone calls or emails, which kept me from stressing out. I could concentrate on my new job instead. She advised me to pay the fine before going to court, which I did. She also mentioned that I might want to consider taking an online safety course which she thought would help my case. So I did that. I knew Colleen knew what she was doing and that she had a lot of experience with these types of cases and I felt that Colleen would not steer me wrong. The day of the trial she was there to represent me and immediately after it was over she contacted me to let me know the good news that I received a PBJ, which means there would be no points and I didn't owe any additional money since I prepaid the fine. I can honestly say that calling Colleen and having her represent me was the best thing I could have ever done and I would recommend her, without any reservation what so ever, to anyone in need of her help. Thank you again Colleen for everything you did for me.
Colleen the Best. – I had a criminal charge brought against me and I was so terrified. Being a foreigner and the fact that the outcome could have devastating consequences on my immigration status, I contacted Colleen Kirby. She listened to me, got all the facts and proceeded to defend me. As the trial date got really close, I got so scared but Colleen kept reassuring me she was working on my case behind the scene and putting my best interest at heart. On trial day when my case was called, it only lasted like 30 seconds and the prosecutor dropped all charges and I went out a free man again. I was so excited that I picked Colleen up in court, and swong her around in a circular manner! She is a class act and the best at what she does. In my opinion, Colleen Kirby for President 2012!!!
Best Criminal Defense Attorney Around. – Our son needed reliable legal representation for his cases. We contacted Price Benowitz and they referred us to Collen Kirby. Ms. Kirby was very professional, explanatory of what we were facing and prepared us for whatever the outcome may have been. She was diligent is her preparation and collecting facts for his case. The most important to us she was honest, and kept us informed on the progress of his case. If you are looking for a professional attorney to represent you with the qualities that you don't find currently in today's society, Collen Kirby is the attorney that you are looking for. She gets the job done and you know that she will 100% put her best foot forward on your behalf.
Best Criminal Defense Attorney in Baltimore/ Howard County – I was given a citation as a result of driving on a suspended license. I was unaware that my license was suspended.
I found Colleen Kirby to be my Criminal Defense Attorney. She had a great reputation in both Baltimore and Howard County so I was comfortable with my decision.
Ms. Kirby counselled me from the moment I hired her through the court date. Ms. Kirby and I went back and forth with the State Prosecutor and we unhappy with the plea so we took the case to trial. Ms. Kirby won the trial and I was found Not Guilty.
I was very happy with Ms. Kirby's counsel and would recommend her to help anyone facing criminal defense cases in either Baltimore or Howard County.
Best MD Lawyer is Colleen Kirby at 443-680-5469 – Colleen Kirby is by far one of the best lawyers in Maryland. She represented me in Howard County for Driving on a Suspended License.
Every other lawyer I talked to said that the best case scenario was probation before judgement, but Colleen Kirby told me to give her a couple days to see what she could do. After about 2 days she called me up and said that it was my choice whether I wanted to go to court or not because she talked to the D.A, and the D.A. agreed to dismiss all charges against me.
Colleen knows how to talk and knows all the right people. SHE WILL HELP YOU.
Another really cool thing about her is that she talks like a person, not like a lawyer. She will break everything down into layman's terms so that you feel comfortable and understand what is going on. That is another great trait that I love about Colleen.
If ever have trouble again will I use her? Most Definitely.
Thanks Colleen You are Awesome.
Committed and Experienced – In late May I was cited for a HOV violation in Rockville, MD. As soon as I got the ticket I knew this was going to impact my Class A CDL license and I am currently from Florida, so going to court for this kind of ticket was a huge concern also. During my first search on the Internet for the best traffic defense attorneys in the DC area, the firm Price Benowitz was top of the list. Shortly after reading the firm's site for more information, I spoke with a staff member who referred me to Colleen Kirby as the attorney within the firm to handle this case. Colleen contacted me almost immediately and seemed very eager to work with me. From a business stand point I think Colleen was very professional, competent and knowledgeable person. She not only appeared on my behalf, but kept the points off my CDL license. Having just one point on my CDL would have put me at a great disadvantage in the competitive job market today. I simply don't think it gets any better than her. TY!
Well Spoken And Concise – I was charged with DUI in Anne Arundel by a MTA officer. I had a connection in the Howard County police department who referred me to Colleen. When I was first charged, I was scared I would lose my job. Colleen was very helpful and reassuring, telling me that everything would be okay and not to worry about informing my employer. On Colleen's advice, I began alcohol treatment prior to my court date because she believed it would give the judge more reason to believe that I am taking this offense seriously. And she was right. Throughout the process, Colleen was extremely accessible. If I needed to speak with her she would get back to me within 10-30 minutes. My judgement was almost exactly as Colleen predicted. She was able to read through my paperwork and walk me through the process on the first day I met her. Based on the charges against me, she was able to indicate what the outcome would most likely be as long as we had a reasonable judge. On my courtdate, everything went exactly as Colleen had discussed. She was able to get the judge to offer me a PBJ, which will not affect my job and will have no impact on my insurance as long as there are no other issues prior to the end of my probation. Colleen was a fantastic attorney. She is very well spoken and concise compared to other representation I have seen. She is very thorough and makes sure she has covered every aspect of the paperwork to make sure she can argue the case to the best interest of her client.

The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture is composed of several parts. The first is a fully modularized sound driver which supports module autoloading, devfs, isapnp autoconfiguration, and gives complete access to analog audio, digital audio, control, mixer, synthesizer, DSP, MIDI, and timer components of audio hardware. It also includes a fully-featured kernel-level sequencer, a full compatibility layer for OSS/Free applications, an object-oriented C library which covers and enhances the ALSA kernel driver functionality for applications (client/server, plugins, PCM sharing/multiplexing, PCM metering, etc.), an interactive configuration program for the driver, and some simple utilities for basic management.
Astaro Portscan Detection is a netfilter target which will attempt to detect TCP and UDP port scans and log them to syslog. This target is based upon Solar Designer's scanlogd. It suppports mutliple levels of logging, custom prefixes for entries, weighted total port scan detection, and port scan temporal spread detection.
COSA and SRP are synchronous serial boards for ISA bus which have two channels. Each channel can be set up to one of the X.21, V.24, V.35 and V.36 hardware interfaces. The Linux kernel driver and user-space tools serve for setting up and using the COSA and SRP boards under Linux. It allows you to use it with the following link-level protocols: Cisco HDLC , synchronous PPP, or as the frame-based character device.
The Extent File System (efs) is Silicon Graphics' early block-device filesystem, widely used on pre-6.0 versions of IRIX. Since 6.0, xfs has been bundled with IRIX and users are being encouraged to migrate to xfs filesystems. IRIX support for efs will be read-only in versions of IRIX beyond 6.5, however efs is still very much in use on SGI software distribution CDs.
emlog is a Linux kernel module that makes it easy to access the most recent (and only the most recent) output from a process. It works just like "tail -f" on a log file, except that the storage required never grows. This can be useful in embedded systems where there isn't enough memory or disk space for keeping complete log files, but the most recent debugging messages are sometimes needed.

Wetlands, unique ecosystems home to a great diversity of terrestrial and aquatic plants and animals, are beneficial in many ways. They improve water quality by filtering and accumulating pollutants, thereby protecting adjacent rivers, lakes, and streams. Wetlands provide food and protection for many of the nation's fish and wildlife species, including endangered and threatened species. Finally, wetlands have economic value associated with recreational, commercial, and subsistence use of fish and wildlife resources.
Over time, many wetland, riparian, and lakeshore environments have become degraded by human-induced disturbances, such as the introduction of invasive, non-native plants. Such exotic vegetation often reduces habitat quality (e.g., loss of food supply) by outcompeting native vegetation. It contributes to an unkempt, weedy appearance, and obscures the waterbody from view. Such disturbances have not only affected the natural functions of these systems by increasing erosion, reducing natural wetland vegetation, and degrading habitats, but they have diminished the aesthetic value of the environment.
Land development activities in adjacent areas and in upland areas within the watershed also disturb wetlands and waterbodies. These disturbances often result in sediment deposition, nutrient enrichment, and increased stormwater flows into the wetlands. This causes a reduction in water clarity that limits the growth of wetland plants and submerged aquatic vegetation, smothers streambeds, contaminates water quality, and alters natural hydrology.
Municipalities can plant wetland species to preserve existing wetlands and to enhance degraded wetland plant communities. Wetland plantings, however, are only a part of restoring, protecting, or creating a wetland.
When preserving and enhancing degraded wetlands, it is often necessary to plant wetland species along shorelines, in upland habitats, and along the bottom of waterbodies. Each wetland can be divided into specific zones based on soil hydrology. Upland transitional zones are adjacent to normally wet or inundated wetland areas. These zones are extremely important to the health, function, and appearance of the wetland or waterbody. Wetland and open water zones range from having saturated soil below the ground surface (such as in a wet meadow) to being completely inundated with water (such as a shoreline or streambank). These areas can support a variety of wetland plant species, including those that are intolerant of inundation, emergent species, and submerged or floating plants.
When preserving degraded wetland communities, municipalities can also use wetland mitigation banking. A wetland mitigation bank is a wetland area that has been restored, created, enhanced, or preserved, and then set aside to compensate for future wetland conversion from development activities. A municipality can participate in wetland mitigation by undertaking such preservation activities under a formal agreement with a regulatory agency. In Pembroke Pines, Florida, 358 acres of degraded wetlands on city property were restored through the Florida Wetlands Bank. In King County, Washington, a wetland mitigation banking program has also been established. See the King County Wetland Mitigation Banking Program website for more information on this program.
Obtain a permit. When beginning a wetland planting, it is important to remember that any entity that alters a wetland must first get a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. This requirement is specified under the Clean Water Act, Section 404.
Determine the site history. The first step in a wetland planting program is to determine a site's history, including previous vegetation and typical conditions. Another important factor is a site's hydrology. Hydrology defines such factors as average and maximum depth, duration of inundation, and degree of soil saturation. Hydrology affects the soil and plant conditions that characterize different wetland types and streambank and shoreline environments. Municipalities should work with a reputable wetland firm to determine these conditions. Other factors that should be considered for wetland plantings are described below.
Select plants and begin planting. Selection of plants for wetland, streambank, and shore zones is closely tied to the hydrology of the site, particularly water depths and flood durations. Other factors such as shading, water clarity, and salinity should also be taken into account. Planting in open water areas typically involves the use of tubers, plugs, and potted plants. Often both seeds and live plants are used when planting in nonponded wetland zones. Project planners must be familiar with different types of plants that can be used, depending on the site's characteristics. Field tests can be useful to delineate planting zones on a site that contains a range of hydrologic regimes.
It is important to use a diverse mix of wetland plants and not just one type of plant such as Phragmites (reed grass) or cattails. These and other aggressive species are very easy to establish but should not be planted since they may outcompete valuable species and will eventually dominate less robust colonizers.
It is important to establish riparian vegetation in riparian wetlands, which exist adjacent to streams. Riparian vegetation stabilizes banks, provides large woody debris and detritus for aquatic habitat and food, and shades the stream, reducing water temperatures. Reestablishing riparian cover along streams can call for active reforestation of native species, removal of exotic species, or modification of mowing options to allow gradual succession.
The types of vegetation planted should depend upon geographic location, climate, and soil conditions. Species native to the area are naturally better suited to its conditions. Riparian vegetation includes ground cover like grasses, sedges, and rushes as well as woody plants, such as shrubs and trees. While all of these plants help stabilize stream banks and filter stormwater, their effectiveness varies. For example, deeply rooted plants like trees might work better than some shallow rooted plants for transforming or retaining nitrogen because the roots can reach deeper flowing water and accumulate larger amounts of nitrogen.
Information on selecting native plant species, the timing and techniques of planting, and other local factors is available from federal agencies, such as the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and from various state and local agencies. A local Cooperative Extension Service is another good source of information.
Initial and long-term management and maintenance. Many wetlands become overgrown with non-native, invasive plant species following a disturbance. Noxious weeds can be controlled in a variety of ways. Controlled burning is a commonly used technique for wetlands, natural streambanks, and shorelines. Timing is important, however, since these areas burn well only at specific times of the year. Furthermore, fires in wetland areas can be intense, especially where cattails and giant reed grasses are present; therefore, special care should be exercised. A two- to three-year rotation for prescribed burnings is often appropriate.
Invasive species can also be removed by physically extracting them from the site. This process is often difficult because many non-native species grow in dense patches with extensive root systems.
For species that are particularly difficult to eliminate using prescribed burning or physical extraction approaches, chemical control of non-native species is sometimes warranted. Herbicide techniques are different from those used in upland sites, primarily because herbicides have to be licensed for use in or near waterbodies, wetlands, and other aquatic systems. Chemical means of weed reduction should be used only when necessary, and product labels should be read and closely followed. Only a licensed herbicide applicator should conduct this work.
If hydrologic and soil conditions are conducive to plant growth, wetland plantings often respond very quickly. Extensive cover of native plants often can be achieved during the first growing season. Noxious weed control through the use of mowing or pruning is often necessary during the first several years. Some replanting might also be necessary. A stable, diverse, and aesthetic wetland/riparian landscape might take three to five years to achieve.
It is important to understand that the success of wetland plants will not be immediate, nor will the effort end with the planting itself. Wetland plants should be routinely monitored following planting. If the plantings do not appear to establish themselves, it is important to reevaluate the site selection and conditions before replanting. With each revegetation effort, both successful and unsuccessful, new information about suitable habitat and conditions will be gained.
Planting programs benefit wetlands in several ways. First, these plantings act as a "jump-start" for bare or significantly disturbed areas. Although revegetation might not completely cover a disturbed area, it helps establish plant species that can then propagate. Planting indigenous aquatic species helps restore the natural functions of wetlands. These functions include stormwater infiltration and filtration, nutrient uptake, sediment removal, and peak flow attenuation. Second, revegetation programs help educate the public about the value of wetland plants. Working on wetland planting projects provide the public with a hands-on opportunity to improve wetlands and aquatic environments. Wetland planting projects also help scientists identify the environments and growing conditions that promote plant growth. Finally, reestablishing wetland vegetation improves wildlife habitat for migrating waterfowl, reptiles, amphibians, and other aquatic species.
For example, West Eugene, Oregon's, Stream Team and Parks Volunteer programs have prompted several area agencies and organizations to adopt wetlands, stream segments, and parks (City of West Eugene, Oregon, 2001).
The success of new plantings depends on several factors, including weather (drought or flood) and insect damage. Also, upstream or nearby development and land use changes may alter wetland conditions and result in altered salinity, hydrology, or other factors that can kill recently planted vegetation. Maintenance ensures that the plantings have successfully established themselves.
Other problems associated with wetlands include the filling in of detention ponds originally built by developers. When filling occurs, municipalities should determine whether they should convert the ponds into wetlands or return them to their original state.
Local or regional environmental agencies often sponsor wetland planting programs. Many organizations use fund-raisers and membership dues to earn money for replanting activities. Scientists and wetland experts often donate their time to conduct site visits and provide recommendations for the plant species selection process.

Renault are confident that the engine problems Red Bull have experienced in Jerez will be resolved by the next test in Bahrain.
Having managed just 14 laps in three days, reigning World Champions Red Bull Racing have found themselves on the back foot in pre-season testing.
Blighted by several issues, some belonging to the team and others to engine supplier Renault, technical director Adrian Newey has reportedly left Jerez to go back to the drawing board.
And while he is doing what he can to find a solution, Renault will be resolving their own issues.
"We are extremely confident that the problems we have experienced can be dealt with," engine chief Rob White told Autosport.
"We don't have a single minor problem or indeed a big howler that is causing the trouble.
"Instead, we have made significant progress and expect, with the understanding we now have, the workaround we have put in place, and with more confirmation work on the dyno overnight, to be able to run tomorrow.
"It will perhaps be in a fashion that most resembles what we would have expected to start the first day with. And if we can do that, then it shouldn't be too shabby."
White also downplayed concerns that time is running out, adamant that Renault will be ready for Bahrain.
"Looking forward to Bahrain and beyond, the aim is to make best use of the time available and to get ready for then.
"We had objectives for the first test that won't have been fully realised and therefore the step up we need for Bahrain is absolutely bigger.
"But we are determined and committed to get there and we will work with the teams to fix the problem."

Your teeth can become stained even if you have a regular regime of brushing and flossing. Genetics can influence the base color of your teeth. Some people simply have darker teeth than others to begin with. As you age, your teeth may become darker or discolored. Teeth can also be affected by certain prescription medications and smoking.
On a daily basis, certain food and drink may lead to staining. Red wine, coffee and tea are known to color teeth over time. These stains seep below the enamel to darken the teeth. You cannot remove them with brushing and flossing alone as this only removes surface staining. In order to be effective, whitening products must work below the enamel to lighten the dentin at the core of the teeth.
GoSMILE whitening products contain peroxide, which has been proven to lighten the teeth inside and out without damaging the protective enamel surface. From simple solutions, such as whitening toothpastes to technologically advanced light systems, GoSMILE has a treatment to suit your teeth.
The GoSMILE range is based on proven formulations and cutting edge delivery systems that have been developed by a team of talented dental advisors, scientists and biomedical engineers. Active ingredients have been extensively tested to ensure that they deliver consistently stunning results. But there is nothing boring about GoSMILE treatments, which are a delight to use.
GoSMILE has won a range of beauty accolades from publications aimed at both men and women, including the Men's Health Grooming Awards and the Redbook Beauty Awards.

|ESPNsoccernet: MLS
Chivas USA's Sacha Kljestan is unlikely to make a move to Scottish champions Celtic during the January transfer window.
Celtic scrapped the move after it decided that it could not afford the asking price for the U.S. national team midfielder -- said to be a package worth up to $3.5 million along with a sell-on clause, sources with knowledge of the negotiations told ESPNsoccernet.
The looming European transfer deadline is also making a move elsewhere in Europe unlikely for Kljestan despite interest from a handful of other clubs.
Kljestan is coming off a hat-trick performance in the U.S. team's 3-2 win vs. Sweden on Jan. 24 and is now more likely to be a summer transfer departure from MLS.

Mon. - Sun. 6am - 11pm
Neighborhoods: Central, Downtown West
Excellent Large Group Accomodations – We recently had a large group dinner at Fire Lake for my boyfriend's 30th birthday celebration, and it was wonderful! I planned the party through their event coordinator, Belinda, who was fantastic to work with. She did an outstanding job making sure everything was just right and that I was happy. The private dining area was perfect for our group, the staff was attentive and accomodating, and the food was delicious. Everyone enjoyed themselves and had a great time. I will highly recommend them to anyone looking for a large group venue.
Mediocre – Slow service. Overpriced for what my wife and I thought of the meal.
Good Food, not bad priced – This restaurant had a really nice relaxing atmosphere, the waiter was really helpful, nice, always checked on us, i have no complaints.
The food just wasn't my cup of tea, it just wasn't a flavor that i enjoyed, it might be seasonal but i'm just not a cranberry fan. My husband had a steak-medium rare, he enjoyed it a lot.
I'm more of a chicken person rather than meat, so the restaurant just wasn't for me. Otherwise it was very enjoyable and if you sit in the dining area its pretty intimidate if you are on a date and whatnot.
Overall i would recommend.
Just Decent – Walked in and thought the atmosphere was nice and inviting. We decided to order the Spinach Fondue and that was really good. The bread was a little salty but who doesn't like salt? My wife ordered the walleye and it above average. The corn crust didn't really seem to cover that much. It was more walleye with a light coating of breading. The walleye itself was fresh and didn't taste fishy at all. The fries were really good. I ordered the honey pork-chop based off of previous reviews. It was big but over-cooked. Maybe it was an off night but it wasn't as good as I thought it would be.
Overall, it was a decent meal and might try again but with so many options in downtown, it might be awhile.
Hella Pork Chop – The pork chops are huge, impressive, and way tasty. Being quite large, there is no possible way they could be cooked to order in the time afforded an average patron for dinner. Consequently they are cooked earlier and stored. This seems odd, but it is a common practice with large cuts of meat. Ok, so... I received *my* chop and it was barely warm which was unfortunate because I was quite excited. I sent it back to be reheated and it returned a bit browner but still not warm enough. I almost suggested it be brought up to a core temp of at least 150f but elected to finish it as is. If this chop was to temperature, it would have been the best one I have ever had. The apple and yam side was amazing however the rosemary garnish mildly reeked of mildew. It is the opinion of this writer that a bit more attention to the details would propel this restaurant's stellar menu to new heights.
Breakfast. WOW. YUM – I had breakfast the other day at FireLake for the first time. I can't understand why it was so slow. What a hidden gem. I tried the Asparagus Bruschetta Benedict, it was fantastic. My fiancee had the stuffed french toast. The canadian bacon, they call it something else, was the best I have ever had. The service was terrific. Tyrone treated us like a guest in his home. I loved the open kitchen to watch the Chef's work.
It was a great experience and we will be back soon with friends.
good times, great food, great service – I went to Fire Lake for the first time with a group of people. Belinda was our server. She made excellent suggestions for food and drink, and made it fun and easy for everyone at the table. The food was amazing. I had the smoked pork chop- Hands down the best pork chop I have ever had. I tried the bacon-wrapped bison. it was so tender and delicious. And I forgot how good mashed potatoes can be until I ate the white cheddar-herb mash they have. I am going to go back soon just to try their rotisserie prime rib.-oh my god that looked amazing!! It was just nice to eat simple but awesome food in a warm, layed back atmosphere. definitely check it out!
Horrendous waitress, Elk steak unusually tough. Go elsewhere – The waitress was brisk and condescending and simply lying about ingredients. When asked about a particular wine, she responded "local." When pressed as to the area, she responded Napa Valley. I said that's California, and she retorted haughtily, "That's local." The restauarnt prides itself on local grown and organic foods. Something 1,500 miles away is hardly local. The much touted Elk steak was tough and full of sinew and would not even pass for poor quality beef. I have had Elk steak at the Old Fort restaurant near Denver and it melted like butter. I am beginning to wonder what it was they served me. Old horsemeat, perhaps?
The sad thing is that this restaurant carries the Chaine des Rotisseurs plaque, usually a sure sign of culinary quality. Either improve your food and service or take the sign down quickly.
Good food, suspect service – We had the homemade chips and dips as an app, it was tasty as was our entrees. Server was OK, but to make it a bad experience it took FOREVER (OK 15 mintues) for her to process our payment. I hate being held hostage when I am ready to leave a restaurant. Why is it so difficult?
A Great Restaurant for Lunch – I love FireLake! FireLake has a wonderful lunch menu with great monthly specials. I try to eat lunch there at least once a month. The service is always "just right "- friendly, attentive but never "over the top". The food is always great - fresh and locally sourced - and a great value. I love recommending FireLake to friends because they can't thank me enough for introducing them to a great local restaurant.

Hey, my name is Karma, I am 9 months old now and my mommy adopted me from Pets Without Parents. They welcomed in my birth mommy and saved us all! I was born that very same night in their warm shelter. I will be forever thankful to come into this world and find such love and comfort, it was totally awesome. Life was good but it only got better cuz I am even more happy now that I found my forever home. This feels better than the biggest, juicy bone in the whole wide world!
I look innocent but I am really not! My hobbies include sock tug of war, bunny chasing, playn' with all my pals, digging just to make a mess and chewing on anything I can put in my mouth. That reminds me shhhhh…don't tell, but I even chewed up mommy's pen. Guess I better remember to say that I also like cuddling with her, that way when she finds the ink blob, I wont be in the doghouse!
I also love my feline sis and bro, they are so fun to chase and chew on and that is why I am very curious about this catwalk thing. One of my aunts calls me a supermodel, but I do not understand…cant help having long legs, and a happy swagger.
Please vote for me so I can strut my stuff at the fashion show and make every underdog born very proud! Hello Sandra D, Josie, Louis, Tug, Murray, Chase, Sadie, Diamond, Lucy and Donte…us dogs rule!

Instructional Objective The learner will be able to classify the rock/mineral by matching the rock/mineral to its corresponding category and classification.
Learners/Context The learners are students currently enrolled in a Science class studying the area of Geology and rock/mineral categories and classifications.
This card game would be used by the students after class discussions and completing activities relating to rock/mineral categories and classifications. Several sets of the card game would be managed by the teacher and available for all students. The cards could be used outside of class or during class for practice and/or remediation purposes.
Rationale The material to be learned is structurally an easy one to master. As seen below, it can be thought of as a 3 x 4 matrix with 4 unique classifications.
Igneous Sedimentary Metamorphic Mineral High Value 7-10 7-10 7-10 7-10 4-6 4-6 4-6 4-6 Combination Low Value 1-3 1-3 1-3 1-3
A card game is useful for this type of instruction for several reasons. The amount of material to be learned is discrete and well-defined, the required learning of classifying rocks/minerals lends itself well to a card game and having a card game introduces a unique way of learning this material.
Rules The game is played as follows:
1. The objective of the game is to move 7 piles of randomly distributed cards from their original piles to 4 sequential stacks, organized from the 1 to the 10 card, using a set of rules. Shuffle the cards. Randomly distribute the cards into 7 piles, starting from the left and as you lay a card on each pile the next card should be face up. Your setup should look like the example.
These cards are played until the number 1 card is revealed.
When the number 1 card from each stack is revealed, it is placed here:
2. To make a play, you place one card onto another, in order to reveal other face-down cards and bring them into play. Cards are played in descending order, alternating suit. Black and Brown are the dark suit and Red and Gray are the light suit. A dark suit card cannot be played with another dark suit card or a light suit card cannot be played with another light suit card. For example, a red 6 may be played below a black 7, and a brown 8 may be played below a gray 9, etc. So, a black card cannot be used with a brown card or a red with a gray.
3. Ones are placed in one of four separate piles outside the playing area. Two's are played on top of these in the same suit in ascending order until all four stacks run from 1 to 10 in each suit.
4. Remaining cards are used 3 at a time until there are no more moves to be made. Cards from the original 7 stack may be moved if there are available plays. If it is possible, a 10 may be placed in an open space once an empty spot has opened among the seven available spaces.
If you have no legal plays left, (no cards can be placed onto other cards, and there are no 1's or subsequent cards available to be moved from the playing area), then you must use up the remaining cards until there are no more moves left. You have won the game when you have successfully made 4 stacks of cards, each in numerical order from 1 to 10.
Card Design
Deck Design There are four types of cards used in the game. All the cards are point/color coded on the picture side to distinguish them from each other and to identify their suit.
1. Igneous cards-(Black) There are 10 Igneous cards ranging from pointed, worth 10 points, to blunt, worth 1 point.
2. Sedimentary cards-(Gray) There are 10 Sedimentary cards ranging from dark in color, worth 10 points, to light in color, worth 1 point.
3. Metamorphic cards-(Brown) There are 10 Metamorphic cards ranging from shiny, worth 10 point, to dull, worth 1 point.
4. Mineral cards-(Red) There are 10 Mineral cards ranging from hard, worth 10 points, to soft, worth 1 point.
Design Process The first design consideration was deciding on the type of structure to use for this instructional problem. At first, a two-handed game to be played by students was considered to help facilitate the exchange of ideas between the students in different classes. This was ruled out due to the complicated schedule of the classes. A solitaire structure fits nicely with the needs of the individual student and doesn't impede class time. This structure would also require fewer decks to produce therefore lowering production costs.
Another hurdle to overcome was addressing the issue of how a student would know whether he/she was correct in their matching classifications and categories without resorting to a separate answer key. Obviously the solution was to incorporate the key onto the card itself without also being obvious to the player while engaged in the game.
I thought about having more than one rock/mineral type for a particular classification and leaving others out but trial runs showed that players didn't keep track of what classifications of rocks/minerals had already been matched. Having one rock/mineral for each set of classifications also eliminated the need to have more than one deck.
Rock/Minerals Classifications
Igneous - (Black) Metamorphic - (Brown)
1. Pumice 1. Slate
2. Basalt Scoria 2. Schist
3. Rhyolite Porphyry 3. Mica Schist
4. Vesicular Basalt 4. Gneiss
5. Granite 5. Diorite Gneiss
6. Pegmatite 6. Argentite
7. Granodiorite Porphyry 7. Marble
8. Diorite 8. Pink Marble
9. Gabbro 9. Uraninite
10. Obsidian 10. Quartsize
Sedimentary - (Gray) Minerals - (Red)
1. Chalk 1. Talc
2. Coquina 2. Gypsum
3. Travertine 3. Calcite
4. Limestone 4. Fluorite
5. Shale 5. Apatite
6. Siltstone 6. Orthoclase
7. Sandstone 7. Quartz
8. Conglomerate 8. Topaz
9. Breccia 9. Corundum
10. Coal 10. Diamond

New home sales and existing home sales are released each month at about the same time. Many comparisons are made between the two series, but before doing any comparisons, one must be aware of some definition differences that affect the timing of the statistics.
The Census Bureau collects new home sales based upon the following definition: "A sale of the new house occurs with the signing of a sales contract or the acceptance of a deposit." The house can be in any stage of construction: not yet started, under construction, or already completed. Typically about 25% of the houses are sold at the time of completion. The remaining 75% are evenly split between those not yet started and those under construction.
Existing home sales data are provided by the National Association of Realtors®. According to them, "the majority of transactions are reported when the sales contract is closed." Most transactions usually involve a mortgage which takes 30-60 days to close. Therefore an existing home sale (closing) most likely involves a sales contract that was signed a month or two prior.
Given the difference in definition, new home sales usually lead existing home sales regarding changes in the residential sales market by a month or two. For example, an existing home sale in January, was probably signed 30 to 45 days earlier which would have been in November or December. This is based on the usual time it takes to obtain and close a mortgage.
Effective with January 2005, the National Association of Realtors created a new monthly series to overcome the lagging effect of the existing home sales definition. This new series is called Pending Home Sales and is based on sales of existing homes where the contract has been signed but the transaction has not been closed, making it roughly equivalent to the new home sales definition. Monthly estimates are expressed as an index where the year 2001 has been set to equal 100.0.
The National Association of Realtor's existing home sale data can be found at:

Welcome back to the weekly Badass JS roundup! Lots of JavaScript news this week, so lets dive in.
- Adobe proposes events for monitoring the downloading of Image resources which could be quite useful in many circumstances.
- ES6, the next version of the EcmaScript standard that defines the JavaScript language has support for various types of collections beyond the standard Array and Object types. ES6 adds support for Maps, WeakMaps and Sets to the language. They aren't available for use yet, but luckily Andrea Giammarchi has taken the time to shim them so you can use them today.
- Drumkit.js looks like an interesting new framework for Node.js that allows you to share pieces of code between the server and client as well. Neat idea!
- If you didn't hear about it already, WebRTC has landed in Chrome! WebRTC is a new technology that brings realtime voice and video communication technologies to the web.

What are cleansing and charging and why are they necessary?
Cleansing a crystal is basically energetic washing. Charging is what you might think (for example charging a battery).
Let's begin by discussing cleansing. You will need to cleanse your crystal friend of previous energy or experiences it may have encountered. This applies to crystals you have been working with as well as crystals new to your home. Crystals are empathic by nature, and pick up energies in their environment even if you aren't actively working with them. If the vibrations in the environment are low, the vibrations of the crystal will get all wicky-wacky. Sometimes the crystal will feel "full" or "sticky" energetically. You will need to cleanse your crystal friend of any possible negativity absorbed on your behalf.
When would you need to cleanse a crystal?

Courses Taught - James M. Cooper
Comparative Law
Law of Armed Conflict & Peacekeeping
COMPARATIVE LAW (SW/OP, 3 units)
Comparative Law is a unique course because it describes a method of study rather than a body of rules. It involves the use of the comparative method -- that is, how to look at legal issues and institutions from a comparative perspective. This course considers the advantages of the comparative method as well as the inevitable difficulties that arise in its application. It examines several macro-level legal systems such as International Law, International Trade Law, and European Union Law. It also provides a micro-level analysis of several legal systems including common law, civil law, Islamic law and indigenous law. Through this course, students will gain a greater awareness of the diversity of law and legal institutions on local, regional, and global levels. They will also gain a better understanding of the U.S. legal system.
INTRODUCTION TO NAFTA & OTHER HEMISPHERIC TRADE AGREEMENTS (2 units)
[part of the Free Trade Academy]
Now that NAFTA is well into its second decade, we can truly understand the extent of its reach and its results. This survey course introduces the Fair Trade Academy participants to the major issues of NAFTA from the human issues like social dumping to the health and public safety concerns over cross border pharmaceutical sales. The course provides a detailed examination of border security, corporate practices and other governance issues. We look at competing jurisdictions, new forms of sovereignty, and the rise of the surveillance society. We dissect the Agreement and explore the background behind its ratification and implementation across the region. Finally, the course looks at the general question of harmonization and how the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America views homeland defense. While the course examines the underpinnings of the North American Free Trade Agreement and subsequent bilateral and regional trade agreements, we also explore whether these agreements have been a success and for whom. The course features workshops with local activists, law enforcement officials, jurists, diplomats and other stakeholders involved in the border region. There may be field trips to Tijuana and other border areas in this course.
LAW OF ARMED CONFLICT & PEACEKEEPING (SEM, 2 units)
In a post 9/11 world, the laws of armed conflict and peacekeeping have become increasingly important. When does a state have the right to use force? Is there a legal right of anticipatory self-defense? In the war against terrorism, who are the soldiers and who are common criminals? What is the right of self-determination and how does it apply in today's Supermodern world? Who can prosecute war criminals? When can a state use force against another state to prevent humanitarian catastrophes? This course in advanced public international law examines ius ad bellum - the right to use force - and the international legal customs that resulted from state practice during the Cold War. In seminars, students will explore how the United Nations Security Council exercised its muscles during the 1990's only to fail in bringing about a New World Order. We will also research current legal issues in the war against terrorism and how the ius in bello - the rules of war - are being applied internationally. New movements in peacemaking and peacekeeping will also be surveyed. Does not satisfy the SWR requirement.
NAFTA & BUSINESS LAW ISSUES (1 unit) [part of the Free Trade Academy]
Over the last decade, Canadian, Mexican and U.S. businesses have had to adapt to a new business landscape. With NAFTA, barriers to trade have been lowered and competition has increased. Canadas Scotiabank is poised to be the biggest bank in Mexico in the coming years. Retail operations from the U.S. have entered the Canadian and Mexican marketplaces gobbling up competitors and local players. How has the business community adapted to new modes of regulation and new cultures in which to operate? How is the relationship between Canada and Latin America? What is cultural sovereignty and how can governments protect it? Can intellectual property rights be fully protected and enforced in Mexico or elsewhere in Latin America? With the rise in counterfeit medicines and the proliferation of websites offering less expensive pharmaceuticals, in what ways can be better regulate health and safety standards? How do the investment dispute resolution procedures in NAFTA function? What is dispute resolution forum shopping? This course surveys the most important issues concerning NAFTA and its role in regulating businesses across free trade areas. The Toronto sessions will feature lectures by local law professors, public regulators, lawyers, judges, and corporate leaders.
TOPICS IN LAW REFORM (SEM, 1 unit)
The course will examine the history and dynamics of the law reform process in Chile. We will explore the role that competing legal traditions (civil law tradition and common law tradition) have had on the reform process and in which areas of the law each legal tradition has dominated. Moreover, we will reflect on the role that law plays in the quickly globalizing economy in which Chile and the rest of Latin America now finds iteslf as a result of the race towards a Free Trade Agreement of the Americas. It will have a comparative approach and detail the differing processes that are being offered by European Governments (the German government in particular) and the United States government. A series of guest lecturers in addition to instruction by Assistant Dean Cooper. This course is designed to complement the students externship experience in Chile as part of Proyecto ACCESO.
Full course descriptions are available in PDF format on the J.D. Curriculum page.

The United Mexican States is a representative Democratic Republic with
31 states and a Federal District. The population in 2010 was 113,423,
047. Mexico is experiencing a demographic transition and has a complex
epidemiological profile characterized by the growth of noncommunicable
diseases, accident rates and unhealthy lifestyles. The historical
inequities and income concentration have led to inequities in access to
basic services, opportunities, and social participation continue. The
poorer states are located in the country's southern region and have the
highest concentration of rural and indigenous population groups and the
highest disease prevalence and mortality rates for preventable causes
It's Human Development Index ranks Mexico 57th worldwide. The Gini
index is 51.7.

A risk factor is anything that increases a person's chance of developing cancer. Although risk factors often influence the development of cancer, most do not directly cause cancer. Some people with several risk factors never develop cancer, while others with no known risk factors do. However, knowing your risk factors and talking about them with your doctor may help you make more informed lifestyle and health care choices.
The following factors can raise a man's risk of developing testicular cancer. However, it is important to note that the cause of testicular cancer is not known.
Age. Testicular cancer is most common in men between the ages of 20 to 45. However, men of any age can develop this disease, and it's important that any man with symptoms of testicular cancer visit the doctor.
Cryptorchidism (undescended testicle). Men with this condition, in which one or both testicles do not descend into the scrotum before birth as they normally should, have an increased risk of developing testicular cancer. This risk may be lowered if surgery is performed to correct the condition before the boy reaches puberty. Some doctors have recommended that cryptorchidism be corrected when a boy is very young, between six and 15 months, in order to reduce the risk of infertility (inability to produce children). Because cryptorchidism is often corrected at a young age, many men may not know if they had the condition.
Family history. A man who has a close relative (particularly a brother) who has had testicular cancer has an increased risk of developing testicular cancer.
Personal history. Men who have had cancer in one testicle have an increased risk of developing cancer in the other testicle. It is estimated that out of every 100 men with testicular cancer, two will develop cancer in the other testicle.
Race. Although men of any race can have testicular cancer, white men are more likely than men of other races to be diagnosed with testicular cancer. Testicular cancer is rare in black men, but black men with testicular cancer are more likely to die of the cancer than white men, particularly if the cancer has spread beyond the testicle to the lymph nodes or other parts of the body when it is diagnosed.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Men with HIV or AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome caused by the HIV virus) have a slightly higher risk of developing seminoma.

1 - The poison clouds from pit vipers cannot hit you with their physical part if you are standing still. However, they WILL hit you EVEN if you are standing still if your merc moves in the same spot (or very close) due to teleporting.
2 - Witches cannot curse you if you have a shrine or another curse already active. They WILL attempt to curse your merc (and very likely hit you as well) if he is "clean", but ONLY if he is closer to them than you are. Else, their AI will tell them to either shoot blood stars at you (happens most the time) or move towards you (if far) or move away (if close). No cursing if their closest target has a shrine or is already cursed.
3 - Several poison clouds are more dangerous than single ones, for some reason. They get stronger if there is fanaticism or might around.
4 - Nihlathaks hit recovery seems strange. Could be my min damage is JUST too low to force hit recovery.

Re: Observations from nihlathak runs
The Amazon Basin Diablo II wiki's Betrayal of Harrogath page contains details of the mechanics of the Tomb Viper's 'javelins' and clouds (among other things).
Although Nihlathak has a hit recovery mode he has no knockback mode, so anything that should knock back will not knock him back and then put him into hit recovery. If you're expecting him to be put into hit recovery by damage and your source for his life is either the Arreat Summit's Nihlathak page or the Nihlathak page of this site's wiki, bear in mind that neither of these applies the (Super) Unique life bonus: Nihlathak has 26,690 base life in Hell, not 13,345.
I've also read that hit recovery isn't quite as straightforward as commonly understood, although I've yet to investigate this myself.

Lets start with the basics, thought this could turn into a huge debate that I am not interested in. Your local water treatment guy should know what to do regionally, but as soon as somebody recommends a softener for 5 PPM iron, I cringe.
Iron removal can be done with Pyrolox. This media is difficult to use, is the dirtiest media ever mined, and takes considerable backwash water but it eliminates the need for pot perm. If it is used correctly, it is one of the best medias ever. Used incorrectly, it is a nightmare.
You mention that you have tannins and that will likely be the cause of your fishy smell.
High hardness should be dealt with especially if you want to get rid of the tannins.
Here is my recommendation, this is a very unique system designed specifically for your application.
Stage 1: Minimum, A 9x48 Iron and hydrogen removal system utilizing Pyrolox. Please note that your pump needs to be able to pump 11 GPM to properly backwash the Pyrolox.
Stage 2, an parallel tank system with softening resin in tank 1, and Tannin selective resin in tank 2. This unique design eliminates the need for seperate regeneration cycles for the softener and tannin systems. The softener regenerant wast (chloride) is used to regenerate the tannin resin.
This design requires the addition of a resup feeder to lower the pH of the brine water so as to prevent the precipitation of the caco3 in the anion resin bed.
This would be the way I would do it.

She's earned four Grammy nominations along the way, the most recent for her 2010 country ballad, "Satisfied."
Jewel will be releasing her Greatest Hits album on February 5, 2013! The album will feature many of her hits throughout the past 18 years, along with a new track and duets with Kelly Clarkson and Pistol Annies.
Acclaimed American singer-songwriter-poet, Jewel has enjoyed career longevity rare among her generation of artists. Since achieving international stardom 18 years ago, the Alaskan beauty has emerged as a charismatic live performer and a respected songwriter with 10 studio albums to her credit. She's earned four Grammy nominations along the way, the most recent for her 2010 country ballad, "Satisfied."
Signed to Atlantic Records before she was 19, Jewel has sold more than 27 million albums during her career. Her 1995 debut, Pieces of You, dominated the charts for with "Who Will Save Your Soul," "You Were Meant For Me" and "Foolish Games" on its way to selling more than 12 million copies in the U.S. alone.
Her next two albums - 1998's Spirit and 2001's This Way - both went platinum while introducing fans to hits like "Jupiter," "Hands," "Standing Still" and "Break Me." Jewel switched directions in 2003 with 0304, an album that fused elements of electronic and folk to create a delightfully quirky mix epitomized by the contrast of dance beats and accordion on the single "Intuition," which became a huge hit single on both the dance and pop charts.
"Good Day" is taken from Jewel's fifth top 10 album, 2006's Goodbye Alice In Wonderland, an album on which each song was a chapter in an overarching story. In 2009, Jewel recordedLullaby at her home in Stephenville, Texas. This best selling children's album - her first of two so far - mixed originals with standards like her stunning cover of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow." She followed up Lullaby with, The Merry Goes 'Round which was named iTunes "Children's Album of the Year" in 2011.
Jewel topped the Billboard country album chart in 2008 with her first country album, Perfectly Clear, which is represented on this collection by the Top 15 single "Stronger Woman." Her second country album, 2010's Sweet and Wild, included the Grammy nominated-single "Satisfied."
An Acoustic Evening with Matisyahu
When Matisyahu emerged in 2004 with his debut album, Shake Off the Dust...Arise, his musical persona seemed a novelty to some. Here was a Hasidic Jew -- dressed in a black suit with a broad-brimmed black hat worn over a yarmulke, and sporting a full, untrimmed beard -- who nevertheless performed toasting raps about the glories of traditional Judaism over reggae beats in a dancehall style directly from Jamaica. Moreover, he punctuated his performances with stage diving. It may have seemed like a joke at first, but Matisyahu was serious about his craft, and his diverse style soon garnered Grammy nominations, gold record certifications, and a broad audience.
Matisyahu was born Matthew Miller on June 30, 1979, in West Chester, Pennsylvania. His family moved to Berkeley, California, which they eventually ditched for White Plains, New York. Miller initially rebelled against his traditional Jewish upbringing, considering himself a Deadhead and a hippie by his early teens. But at the age of 14, during a camping trip in Colorado, he reconciled himself to Judaism and visited Israel shortly thereafter. After returning to White Plains, he dropped out of high school and traveled the country to attend Phish concerts. Back at home again, he agreed to let his parents send him to a wilderness school in Bend, Oregon, where he became enamored of reggae and hip-hop, and began rapping at open-mike competitions. He returned to New York at 19 to attend the New School for Social Research in Manhattan, but also joined the Carlebach Shul, a synagogue where his musical interests were encouraged. Meeting a Lubavitch rabbi, he became interested in the strict Lubavitch Hasidic sect of Judaism and renamed himself Matisyahu.

#CAAHoops Weekly - Men's Championship Preview
To watch this edition of #CAAHoops Weekly on your mobile device or tablet download one of our newly redesigned apps or visit us on YouTube.
This edition of #CAAHoops Weekly previews Friday's quarterfinal games of the 2013 CAA Men's Basketball Championship, presented by Jani-King.
Hosts Bobby Broyles and Rob Washburn start by breaking down Saturday's 3:30 p.m. game between fourth-seeded George Mason and fifth-seeded Drexel. The two teams split their regular-season match-ups, with each winning on the other's home court.
#CAAHoops Weekly then turns to the 6 p.m. game between second-seeded Delaware and #7 Hofstra. The two teams met just a week ago, with the Blue Hens winning by just one point on a putback in the final seconds.
Broyles and Washburn finish up by looking at a rematch of the regular-season finale between #3 James Madison and #6 William & Mary. The Tribe led that contest by 19 in the first half before the Dukes stormed back in the final 20 minutes behind a career-best 36-point performance from A.J. Davis.
There is also information on how to keep up with all of the excitement from championship weekend, including Friday night's postseason awards banquet when the league plans to tweet about the honors handed out. Fans can also follow CAASports on Instagram, which will likely have several photos posted during the weekend's events.
When the action starts Saturday we encourage all fans not in attendance to logon to CAA Hoop Scoop (caamenshoops.wordpress.com), the official blog of Men's #CAAHoops, to interact with the live blog for each game. A live radio feed from the first five games of the championships will be available at CAA.TV and via each of our iPhone and iPad apps. A FREE login is required to access the audio.
We invite you to share your #CAAHoops thoughts, ideas and photos with us on Facebook. We are also on Twitter @CAAHoops and encourage fans from all our schools to follow our tweets for all the latest league information. Be sure to tag all #CAAHoops-related tweets with our official hashtag #CAAHoops.
We are blogging at caamenshoops.wordpress.com and caawomenshoops.wordpress.com as well, so check out both "Hoop Scoop" and "Baseline Buzz" our official men's and women's hoops blogs to find additional information that may not be available here on CAASports.com.
