No. 23 Notre Dame is currently locked in a battle with Pitt at Heinz Field, and the Fighting Irish aren't doing themselves any favors right now. The Irish managed to force a key fumble from Panthers' QB Tom Savage, but the Notre Dame players stopped playing and let the ball lay on the ground. It was clear that Sheldon Day thought it was simply an incomplete pass, but the referees didn't blow the whistle dead, and the Pitt sideline wildly encouraged their team to pick up the ball as it was just sitting on the field. The Panthers eventually recovered.

'Deadwood' Rewind: Season 2, Episode 6: 'Something Very Expensive' (Newbies edition)
We're into week 5 of our summer trip back through David Milch's epic revisionist Western "Deadwood." As always with this project, we're going to have two parallel discussions going at once: identical reviews, but one where the comments section is just for people who are new to the series and don't want to be spoiled on anything past the events of the episode being discussed, and one for people who know "Deadwood" backwards and forwards, and want to be able to discuss it all at once. This is the newbie-safe version; click here for the veteran-friendly one.
A review of episode 6, "Something Very Expensive," coming up just as soon as I think of Leon in a dress...
"Past hope, past kindness and consideration. Past justice, past satisfaction. Past warmth, or cold or comfort. Past love. But past surprise? What an endlessly unfolding tedium life would then become. No, Doris, we must not let you be past surprise." -Wolcott
We are now halfway through this second season, and there have already been several shifts in alliances and power throughout the camp. At the moment, the Tolliver/Wolcott/Hearst coalition seems to have matters under control, for instance, but events are fluid, particularly with Commissioner Jarry's displeasure at how he was treated while under Cy's protection. But one thing that doesn't seem to change, no matter who's in charge or with whom they've alligned themselves, is that the people in power have the ability and often the desire to take out their frustrations on the powerless.
In particular, what we see throughout "Something Very Expensive" is the way that the men in power — and they're almost always men on this show, with the sometime exception of the wealthy widow Garret — wind up kicking, punching or otherwise attacking the weaker people not because they're directly angry with them, but because the real target of their anger is too powerful to be touched.
The most obvious example, and the one that provides the episode its title, is Wolcott's murderous rampage at the Chez Ami. The mysterious, dangerous Mr. W has reason to be annoyed with Doris, but any murderous intent he feels is directed at Cy for trying to blackmail him about his violent sexual proclivities. The problem is, Cy is now too valuable to Mr. Hearst's operation, so Wolcott instead vents his rage on Doris, and can't bottle it up until after Carrie (who has the misfortune to see Doris' body) and Maddie (who foolishly believes this incident puts her in a position of power) have also had their throats cut by his razor.
It's a horrifying sequence, but one we've been prepared for by Maddie and Joanie's previous discussions about Mr. W, and serves as another reminder that the most outwardly-civilized people on this show are capable of the least civilized behavior possible, while many of the camp's most decent, generous citizens (say, Ellsworth) would be sneered at by the higher classes.
And just as Wolcott leaves his meeting with Cy furious but unable to directly attack the man, Cy takes his irritation over being unable to blackmail Wolcott by ordering Con and Leon to vandalize Merrick's office. Merrick demonstrated last week that he's more powerful (or, at least, stronger-willed) than Cy had assumed, but here he's just a nerd being bullied by a stronger crew. (And, in the process, seemingly losing whatever inroads he had made with the camp's new schoolteacher.)
Seth is simultaneously mad at Sol and himself — in general, Seth Bullock is the biggest target of his own rage — at news that Sol had met with Alma about starting a Deadwood bank, but he's never going to actually beat up his friend and partner. So instead, he yells at, then knocks down, Steve the drunk — whom we've already seen act out this kind of proxy bullying last week with his attempt to lynch the General when Jarry was taken out of reach. And because Steve can't risk fighting back against the sheriff, he's instead goaded by one of the No. 10's other patrons into molesting the sheriff's poor horse.
Steve's drunk, twisted decision to do this leads to the episode's one example of the powerless being able to temporarily get over on, if not the strong, then the slightly less weak. Hostetler catches him with the horse, ties him up, and while he feels Steve deserves death for this and other acts, the General talks him down, humiliating Steve by making him confess his deed(*) on Hostetler's chalk board and holding it as blackmail to make him treat them and any other blacks in camp with more respect. They at least temporarily succeed where Cy failed with Wolcott, but only because they had more leverage in that livery stable than Cy had over Wolcott.
(*) At the time the episode aired, there was a lot of debate among my "Deadwood"-watching friends about whether Steve was protesting too much about exactly what he did to the horse, or if he was telling the truth. I'm not going to go frame-by-frame through the DVD (this is already a paragraph they didn't prepare me for in TV critic school), but his dialogue before Steve confronts him supports his story and suggests he was pleasuring himself next to the horse. But the very fact that this is where his mind went after hearing that lecture about the scales of blind justice doesn't speak well of our local hooplehead.
These kinds of power plays aren't about rational thought but animal instinct. It's not a coincidence that they happen to come in an episode where Merrick understandably assumes it was a dog, and not one of Con and Leon, that defecated in his office, and where Steve is at least more intimate with a horse than any man should ever think of being. "Deadwood" is a show about the birth of a civilization, and earlier civilizations came about in part because humans stopped acting like animals. Deadwood is on its way to joining the rest of the world, but there are moments when everyone's behavior horrifyingly slides back to our evolutionary roots.
One of the few men in power not acting that way this week is Al, who had more than his fair share of these incidents last season. (Even his fight with Seth in "A Lie Agreed Upon" is less out of frustration with the sheriff than with Yankton.) But he's been humbled, and weakened, by his weakness, and this is a different Swearengen we see holding court in his office. His temper doesn't flare up, whether he's dealing with the usual Farnum idiocy or the nakedly obvious machinations of Miss Isringhausen. He listens, he is (relatively) patient, and as he considers all the angles for himself, he's often able to consider them from the perspective of the person who's addressing him.
The episode concludes with Joanie sending the surviving Chez Ami whores out of town under cover of night, blanket and Charlie Utter. She's lucky to have escaped Wolcott's massacre (though it's also possible she would have just shot the sonuvabitch the second she entered the bedroom, rather than posturing like Maddie did) and would probably be wise to leave with the others. But she feels bound to this place — and particularly to Cy (to whom she initially ran for help instead of Charlie or Seth) — and is stuck in a place where such a monstrous crime can be covered up by a man who's not any better than the one who dropped the bodies. As she walks through the thoroughfare, she looks up and sees Al out on his balcony, and a moment of seeming understanding passes between them. He doesn't know what she's just been through, and at best she knows of his own recent tribulations third-hand, but there's a brief connection.
Once upon a time, Al Swearengen might have accepted what Wolcott did as the cost of doing business. In fact, if the roles were reversed and Wolcott had sought him out rather than Cy, it's entirely possible that Al would have been willing to cover this up to protect a link to George Hearst. But the Al of this moment and these circumstances is a more magnanimous, empathetic sort. He doesn't know what's happened to Joanie, but he can see even in his condition and from that distance that she's been through something, and he gives her a little nod — not something that will bring the three dead women back, unshackle Joanie from Cy, or solve any of her other problems, but a signal that in this camp full of animals who react to threats by attacking those lower on the food chain, here stands a human being.
It's not much, but on a terrible day like this, it's something.
Some other thoughts:
* Whether men of the 1870s would actually be able to assume pregnancy based on a single incident of vomiting, Alma's pregnancy is rapidly ceasing to be a secret, and Paula Malcomson and our friend Jim Beaver have another splendid duet where Trixie tries to convince Ellsworth to make an honest woman of his boss.
* Sol's quips don't have the memorably profane elegance of the best of Swearengen or some of the other characters, but they're pretty damn clever on their own, like him punctuating a discussion of fighting Seth by warning him, "And you'll have to work by yourself while I convalesce."
* Speaking of both Trixie and Mr. Starr, it's interesting to see that Trixie is still reporting on Sol's activities to Al, even as it's clear her chief affections have been transferred over to Hardware Boy #1. Given that Al, Sol and Seth's business interests are now more aligned than they were in season 1, it seems like less of a betrayal than it would have at the time.
* God bless every scene pairing Ian McShane and Keone Young. So funny every single time — this time with the "juice" vs. "Jews" confusion driving much of the humor — but always underscored by the obvious affection Al has for Wu, and the way Wu in turn views Al as his lifeline to the English-speaking world. He refers to himself and Al as hang dai, or, simply, "brothers." Al may not understand the exact words, but he gets the inflection.
* A more understated but equally amusing bit of comedy: Al's suggestion that Dan go recruit Crop Ear to help add to their muscle in this time of crisis.
As always, let me thank in advance Jim Beaver, Keone Young and anyone else from the "Deadwood" cast who turns up in the comments to offer their own memories of working on this great show. (I'm assuming Mr. Young will have a lot to say on the Al/Wu scene and the idea of them as heng dai.) And if you've been enjoying Jim Beaver's writing here, let me again remind you that you can order a personalized copy of his memoir, "Life's That Way," through his website.
Finally, we're starting to run into the vacation/travel portion of the summer. I'm taking several days off late next week, so there's a question of whether I'll have time to get a review of episode 7, "E.B. Was Left Out," done for next Friday, or if that will have to keep for the following week — which is also when I head to Comic-Con, which will be followed by a little more time off before press tour, so God knows when things will get done. My advice: for the next few weeks, check the blog on Friday mornings a little after 9 Eastern. (Or follow me on Twitter, subscribe to the appropriate instant alert emails, etc.) If the review got done, it'll be up then. If not, try the following week. At some point, I may need to double up again a time or two just to get done by the end of the summer, but it'll all happen. Not to worry. But as David Milch so often did throughout the making of this show, I'm going to have to improvise along the way.
What did everybody else think?

Chechen leader blames U.S.: It's 'their education, not ours'
"Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, said in a statement to the press on Friday he said the problem with the brothers is a result of what they learned in the United States.
"The Tsarnaev brothers allegedly carried out their terror because of "their education, not ours," clearly referring to the United States.
"They (the brothers) grew up and studied in the United States and their attitudes and beliefs were formed there," Kadyrov said, according to Reuters. "Any attempt to make a connection between Chechnya and the Tsarnaevs is in vain."

I get disgusted when I hear remarks from the left and the right about who did this act and how.
The simple fact is that we have a southern and northern border that is so porous that John Mc Cain watched as illegals crossed over when McCain visited the southern border last week. Doesn't that make all the discussion about placing blame for terror laughable? The place McCain chose to visit had no fence; but, it did have a set of concrete steps with an OSHA-type set of painted handrails!

'Whenever a society adopts racial entitlements, it is very difficult to get out of them through the normal political processes….This is not the kind of a question you can leave to Congress. There are certain districts in the House that are black districts by law just about now.'"

Conservative filmmaker's view of '2016'
Quote from article:
Given that the film was co-written and directed by conservative pundit and author Dinesh D'Souza, whose book The Roots of Obama's Rage serves as the template for the documentary, 2016: Obama's America predictably postulates doom and gloom for the United States, with a weakened military, crippling escalating debt, a growing threat by Islamists in the Middle East, and Israel "on its knees."

Peterson ready to prove he's NFL's best CB
Patrick Peterson maintains he's the NFL's best cornerback and will benefit from focusing solely on defense
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson on Sunday tried to be diplomatic when the conversation turned to the seemingly endless debate over who is the NFL's best cornerback.
He gave his competition credit and downplayed the topic at first but ultimately made it clear once again what he thinks.
"Do I feel I'm the best cornerback? Absolutely," Peterson said. "That answer is never going to change."
Peterson approaches his fourth professional season with perhaps more opportunity than ever to back up his claim: He was relieved of duties on punt returns and offense.
The debate over the league's top cornerback began this offseason when Peterson expressed the belief he's worth more than the $57 million contract Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman received in May. Sherman, competitive as he is, took exception and fired back on social media. The back-and-forth has continued since.
The talk died down recently, but with training camps underway, the conversation is back. Peterson said the discussion extends beyond him and Sherman to include Cleveland's Joe Haden and New England's Darrelle Revis. But can it truly ever be settled? Probably not.
"That's going to go on for the rest of our careers," Peterson said. "All four guys have different skill sets. All of us have the ability to be the best in the league, and all of us are the best at something at the cornerback position."
Peterson maintains his superiority to Sherman due to his man-to-man coverage ability as compared to Sherman's zone coverage. Peterson typically draws the assignment to cover opponents' No. 1 receiver, and he likes it that way.
But Peterson might not always be on an opponent's No. 1 receiver this season after the Cardinals added cornerback Antonio Cromartie.
"Would I be OK with that?" Peterson asked aloud, smiling before answering. "No comment."
Either way, Peterson will get the call more often than not, and he should be more prepared than ever to handle it.
Just 24 years old, Peterson is beginning his prime. And this season he's more focused than ever on honing his ability as a cornerback. With additions of speedy receivers Ted Ginn Jr. and rookie John Brown, Peterson no longer will see much action on punt returns, despite being considered among the league's best even if his stats dropped off after a big rookie season.
Peterson's days on offense are over as well thanks to Ginn and Brown. He was used there situationally last season to add a speed element the offense lacked. He finished the season with 11 touches for 92 yards.
"There was a lack of straight line speed for us, and we've addressed it and feel very, very comfortable with it," Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said. "We don't need Patrick on offense anymore. He loved playing it, but even on game day it was hard to find him sometimes."
Peterson says he was happy to do whatever the team needed him to do and certainly enjoyed returning punts, but it's clear he's excited about what focusing solely on defensive duties can do for him.
"I think that's just going to take my game to another level because now I don't have to focus on punt returns and I don't have to focus on trying to remember offensive plays," Peterson said. "Now I can just hone in on playing defensive back and being the best player I can be.
"Guarding a No. 1 receiver each and every week is tough enough as it is. Now to finally get an opportunity just to play cornerback will just make my job that much easier."
Peterson's play this season should help dictate whether or not he does end up getting a contract bigger than Sherman's. Peterson had hoped to settle his contract situation this offseason, but with no deal done an extension may not come until after the season.
Asked about his contract situation Sunday, Peterson said talks remain ongoing but he isn't involved. And with training camp underway, Peterson says he isn't thinking much about it.
"I'm here to play football," Peterson said. "I've got two years left on my deal, and I want to do the best I can to help this team win. I haven't been to the playoffs since I've been here, so that's my first goal and that's what I'm focusing on right now -- just football. The contract stuff, if it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, I have to continue to play football."
Peterson is under contract through 2015 and the Cardinals could use the franchise tag after that. The team would presumably seek a discount for extending the deal now, while Peterson would undoubtedly want to be paid like the NFL's best cornerback.
As for whether he is or is not, the debate continues. Peterson says it should be a motivator for all four players, but don't expect any of them to give an inch.
"I don't believe any guy is going to say (another) guy is better than him," Peterson said. "I can't imagine putting another guy in front of me. That's something that's going to go on for the rest of our careers. I'm OK with it. My opinion and my decision is never going to change."

Putting ourselves in checkFebruary 03,2013You see America and its education system in all their glorious, exhilarating, crushing, infuriating contradictions in our national high school chess champion team.
Chess tends to be the domain of privileged schools whose star players have had their own personal chess coaches. Yet the national champion team comes from a high-poverty, inner-city school, and four-fifths of its members are black or Hispanic.
More astounding, these arent even high school kids yet. In April, New Yorks Intermediate School 318, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, where 70 percent of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunches, became the first middle school team ever to defeat kids up to four years older and win the national high school championship.
The champs are kids like Carlos Tapia, a Mexican-American in the eighth grade, whose dad is a house painter and mom a maid. The parents cant play chess and cant afford to give Carlos his own room, but they proudly make space for his 18 chess trophies.
Chess teaches me self-control that spills over into other schoolwork, Carlos said in the I.S. 318 chess room, as a rainbow of students hunched over their boards, brows furrowed.
This will be my last column for a number of months, as Im taking a leave to work on a new book with my wife. So, I asked my Twitter followers what theyd like me to write about in this column, and one suggested I address: How do you do your job without getting incredibly depressed?
I promise, Im not the Eeyore of journalists. The truth is that covering inequality, injustice and poverty can actually be inspiring and uplifting because of kids like Carlos. Just sprinkle opportunity around, and dazzling talents turn up.
This isnt about chess. Its about investing in kids in ways that transform their trajectories forever. The returns on capital would make Wall Street jealous.
Take Rochelle Ballantyne, who was raised by a single mom from Trinidad and soared on the I.S. 318 chess team. Rochelle, now 17 and aiming to become the first black woman to become a chess master, has won a full scholarship to Stanford University. Shes planning to attend even though she has never visited the campus.
We were meant to break stereotypes, Rochelle told me. Chess isnt something people are good at because of the color of their skin. We just really work very hard at it.
That seems to be the secret. A part-time chess tutor named Elizabeth Spiegel arrived at I.S. 318 in 1999 and parlayed a tiny budget into a team that drills tirelessly. A dynamic, passionate teacher who volunteered much of her time, she nurtured a team that since 2000 has won more middle school championships than any other in the country.
One way of assessing what she has accomplished: Based on estimated chess ratings, Albert Einstein would rank third on the I.S. 318 team.
I wish the column could end on this triumphant note. But if these extraordinary kids are a reminder of what can happen when we invest in creating opportunity, they are also a reminder that budget cuts fall disproportionately on the needy.
Funding for extracurricular activities has dried up, said John Galvin, an assistant principal who oversees the 95-member chess team.
The kids run bake sales, candy sales and walkathons to raise the $50,000 needed to attend tournaments each year, but on trips they sometimes survive on peanut butter.
Galvin has tried approaching corporations and hedge funds for donations but has had little luck. Budget cuts have already trimmed the after-school chess club to three days a week from five.
A moving documentary about the team, Brooklyn Castle, is scheduled to air on PBS later this year, and that may help with fundraising.
But similar cutbacks are playing out all across America. In 35 states, inflation-adjusted school financing is below 2008 levels, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. As of July, school districts have slashed 328,000 jobs since 2008, and budget cuts have devastated early childhood education that lays the foundation for childrens lives.
Affluent kids continue to enjoy nursery school and chess tutors, even as programs for poor kids are eliminated. Education is the best escalator out of poverty, but for too many kids its creaking to a standstill.
As we make historic fiscal decisions in the coming months, lets not balance budgets by slashing investments in our future. That would be like economizing on heating bills by feeding the front door into the fire.
While on leave, Ill be rooting for kids like Carlos to soar to another national championship and far beyond. Given the returns, the question isnt whether we can afford to invest in opportunities for kids but how we can possibly afford not to.

JACKSON – After six seasons as the Jackson Northwest varsity boys basketball coach, Justin Brown decided to resign.
"I want to take time to focus on other things in my life," he said. "The job has changed so much since I started and I just thought it was a good time."
Brown, a 2004 Northwest graduate who played for the Mounties and is a fourth grade teacher at Northwest Community Schools, notified his players after Monday night's team banquet.
"We appreciate his service and commitment to our kids and community for the past six years," Northwest athletic director Chris Galloway said, adding that the job will be posted internally first.
In six seasons, Brown posted a record of 37-86. The Mounties' best season during that time was 2014-15 when they finished 13-8. All five starters graduated from that team as Northwest went 4-16 this season.
Brown, 29, and his fiancé are scheduled to get married in October.
"I'm going to continue to teach," he said, "but focus on some other things in life that have been put on the back burner because of the intense year-round basketball schedule that it's turning into."
Brown said developing relationships with players and watching them mature is what he'll remember most during his time coaching at Northwest.
"That's definitely the most rewarding," he said. "Win, loss or tie, you get to see these kids come to you as 14-, 15-year-old boys and leave you and go to college and they're young men. I really enjoyed my time. Sometime down the road, do I think I might get back into coaching? You just never know."

Four Papuans questioned over flag-raising
Nethy Dharma Somba and Nani Afrida
The Jakarta Post
The Jayapura Police have questioned four Papuan people in connection with the separatist flag-raising ceremony during the "West Papua Independence Day" anniversary celebration on Dec. 1 in Timika.
The four were identified as Larius Dolame, Nurbertus Timang, Marel Magai, Eli Maiseni and Marinus Pigai.
According to the head of the Pegunungan Tengah Papua Indonesian Students Association Markus Haluk, six people sustained gunshot wounds during the incident at the Indah Field in Timika. They are currently being treated at Caritas Hospital in Timika, Markus claimed. Papua Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Wachyono, however, denied the incident ever occurred. "No one was shot, whereas, in fact, five of our men were wounded in the incident," he said Friday.
Police have also named three suspects in connection with the assault on Jayapura Police member Second Brig. Ridwan Napitupulu in Berap village, Nimbokrang district, Jayapura regency, Papua, on Thursday.
The three were named suspects after police examined seven people.
"They are identified as Thomas Tarko, Yonathan Tarko and John Calvin Tarko," Papua Police chief Insp. Gen. Bigman Lumban Tobing told the media in Jayapura.
The three suspects are charged with violating the Criminal Code by comitting violence against members of a state institution, a charge which carries a maximum sentence of seven years in prison.
In Jakarta, however, National Police chief Gen. Timur Pradopo revealed Friday that the police had arrested four men.
"Four people have been arrested," Timur said before attending a plenary Cabinet meeting at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta.
"Thank God my men are safe. We are now seeking other suspects. We will wait for the results," Timur said.
"Ridwan is currently recuperating at Jayapura Bhayangkara Police Hospital," said hospital head Adj. Sr. Comr. dr. Ubaidillah.
Doctors removed an arrow from Ridwan's right thigh, and were preparing him for surgery to install a pin in his broken jaw bone.
Chief of National Intelligence Agency (BIN) Army Lt. Gen. Marciano Norman told reporters that commemorations of the OPM anniversary in Papua on Thursday were still under control.
"People were afraid of bad things taking place, but nothing happened. This means there was good cooperation between security, intelligence officers and people in Papua," Marciano said.

It's the off-season for me, and that means less time spent watching birds, and more time watching my computer. As much as I love being outside, it's actually a really exciting time to look at all the data we collected over the last three years, and get a chance to sit down and really see what the birds are telling us about the plants and insects in our backyards.
If you've read my other blogs from 2013-2015, you may remember that I'm a PhD student who works within Neighborhood Nestwatch studying how non-native plants affect food resources for Carolina Chickadees. We put up nest boxes in backyards all over the DC metropolitan areas, monitor chickadee nesting success, survival and behavior.
This 2015 season we continued monitoring chickadees at more than 150 different sites, and more than 50 of those were new to the project this year! Here's a recap of our season.
- We monitored 57 chickadee nests of which 20 were successful at raising young to fledge. Our low success this year was due to abundant House wrens that kicked many of our chickadees out of their boxes.
- We color-banded 95 new adult chickadees and 66 nestlings.
- We also re-sighted 63 chickadees that returned from previous years.
One of the questions I've decided to tackle first is to see whether chickadees prefer to forage and breed in yards that have more native plants. In August I attended an ornithological conference in Nova Scotia where I presented some preliminary results. The title of my talk was "Behavioral Responses by Carolina Chickadees to Non-native Vegetation". I got a lot of great feedback from other chickadee researchers and was very grateful receive an award for "best PhD student paper" by the Association of Field Ornithologists.
The questions I addressed in this talk were threefold: Are native trees more likely to support:
- Caterpillars for chickadee food?
- Chickadee breeding?
- Chickadee foraging?
Turns out, the chickadees are actually pretty picky birds! Our color-banded birds preferred to feed in native trees at almost every single yard we studied. In addition, oak trees were the top preferred tree in 70% of the yards. Our insect data suggests that oaks also tends to support a high abundance of caterpillars too, so it makes perfect sense that chickadees would spend most of their time foraging in them when they are available.
In fact almost all the trees that were most preferred by chickadees were natives that supported many different species of caterpillar. For example:
- Native oaks (supports 534 caterpillar species)
- Native maples (supports 297 caterpillar species)
- Native cherries (supports 456 caterpillar species)
- Native elms (supports 215 caterpillar species).
Our most abundant caterpillar in the spring is the Fall cankerworm (Alsophila pometaria), a common 'inchworm' caterpillar that can be found on many different tree species. Their name refers to the adults which are active in the fall, but the caterpillars hatch and begin feeding as soon as the leaves begin to emerge in late April through May. This caterpillar can cause some tree damage, but fortunately for us, chickadees and other backyard birds love eating cankerworms. By providing wildlife habitat, birds can help keep caterpillar populations down for trees, and birds get an abundant protein-rich food source to feed their young. It's a win-win situation to support food webs in your backyard.
For the rest of this winter, I'll be looking at some of reproductive data to see if there are any consequences to chickadees when they breed in areas with more non-native plants. I'll also be making plans for our data collection in 2016. Wish me luck!

What Academic Habits Are Essential for a High School Student-Athlete?
The seemingly simple things will make a positive impact on your academic success.
If you're familiar with the "Going to College" articles, then you already know the important role academics will play in your college process. As a new school year begins, it is timely to reinforce and emphasize the specific traits that will allow you to get the most out of your upcoming school year. In past Going to College articles, we've written about a myriad of topics relative to academics, time management, the NCAA Eligibility Center, and the like. Specifically, and for your continued education, please continue to refer to the following articles relative to the aforementioned topics:
Additionally, in this article, I wanted to provide my "Top Five Classroom Habits." These five habits will help you get the most out of each of your respective classes this school year, as well as reinforce the traits that will lead you to academic success once you become a college student-athlete. During my college coaching years, I'd emphasize these habits to my players regularly. They may seem quite simple, but in reality, these habits can greatly enhance the probability of your success in the classroom. It's my hope you'll take an inventory of your current "habits" and integrate the following suggestions where appropriate.
1. Pay attention in every class – Get your mind ready to listen and take in all the teacher has to say. Just as you get your mindset ready for each golf shot, make sure you are fully "present" for each class.
2. Sit in the front of the classroom – Sitting in the first few rows of a classroom allows you to be fully engaged with the instructor. In high school this may not always be in your control given seat assignments, but do your best to sit as close to the front of the classroom as possible. This habit becomes even more important as you transition to college given the bigger lecture halls.
3. Take copious notes – Note taking is a tremendous and essential habit to commit to during every class. It allows you to further engrain the lesson of the day from the instructor and establish a comprehensive study and reference guide moving forward.
4. Communicate with your teachers – Make sure to ask questions when you don't understand a topic or if you need further clarification on an assignment, etc. It is essential that you get comfortable initiating communication with your teachers and take ownership of your academic path. Also, attend any office hours/tutorial sessions offered by your teacher to deepen your understanding of the course curriculum. This is a great time to ask questions about the lectures and/or assignments, as well as to demonstrate to the teacher that you're doing all you can to learn and understand the material.
5. Keep up with your assignments/reading – Don't procrastinate! Doing a little bit every day is much easier than having to do everything at the last minute.
I encourage you to integrate these habits during your high school years. If practiced, these actions will maximize your academic achievement in high school and properly prepare you for the academic demands of college. Establishing these simple habits will pay off, as you'll have less stress and more time to be the best student-athlete you can be.
Study hard!

Skip to comments.New Poll Shows Dismal Re-Election Prospects for John McCain
Posted on 02/14/2014 12:02:56 PM PST by montag813
by Brian Hayes | Top Right News
Arizona Republicans have increasing contempt for Senator John McCain.
And no wonder. After shameful betrayals on everything from amnesty to ObamaCare to the Muslim Brotherhood, John McCain was recently dealt an unprecedented censure by the Arizona GOP.
McCain was humiliated in the national press as elected state committeemen assembled at the annual Statutory Meeting of the State Committee of the Arizona Republican Party and voted to censure him. Two weeks earlier, Maricopa County Republican elected precinct committeemen also voted to censure John McCain. That resolution, expressing deep dissatisfaction with Arizonas senior senator, passed overwhelmingly by a vote of 1,150 to 351.
Today a poll confirms what the censures first suggested: if McCain is planning another run at the Senate -- as he recently indicted he would -- he may be in for a world of hurt.
(Excerpt) Read more at toprightnews.com ...
Didn't he recently threaten to run again if anyone tried to oust him in a primary? Seemed like kind of an illogical threat at the time.
Where is the poll and its results? I'd love to see this.m
unfortuneately he's not up again for another 3 years, right?
Now there would be some change I would hope for.
4 years...what were those people thinking???
It was the intemperate outburst of an iracsible senile old man who's day is done. It was also probably a last blast. I con't believe his handlers and family would allow him to embarrass them all by running again.
Why is 'dead skunk in the middle of the road' echoing thru my mind?
I read it and he isn't up for reelection until 2016, so not this year.
Palín bought a home in arizona.
de poll de poll
Thank you, thank you. Some good news, if it pan out.
Next, McCain's biatchy wife, Lindsey.
There be some sort of perverse family pride in owing up to the fact that their "Wacko Birds" McCain is now the Republican's Official Loser Emeritus.
Thank you :)
He only survived last time by the lips of his former running mate. She's still stuck on stoopid. The rest of AZ may have finally wised up.
I thanked myself accidentally! I meant to thank you, so thank you! Also, it's a shame that according to this poll, Flake's numbers have risen a tiny bit, he's been just as "flakey" lately.
Way too late.
Palin would never run against mccain.
If memory serves last time he was primaried, he spent 23 million on just the primary. (Typically, a successful Senate candidate spends 10 million on the actual election.) So, he could be really unpopular and still get reelected.
Sarah saved him last time. Wonder if she still owes him?
Palin would never run against mccain.
"...At this time, it's perplexing to see Senator McCains good efforts to uncover
the Obama agenda being ignored and perhaps even hindered now by those wanting to
censure the Arizona senator," Palin wrote.
As a Zonie, I'll tell you. We have the illegals voting Dem. We have the Cali transplants of which there are many, voting anywhere from Dem to "moderate" Republican. And we have a bunch of natives/long term transplants who believe the stupidity that the Dem is worse than a backstabbing fool like McCain.
So rather than vote for what they claim to believe in, they abandon principle and go for the 'win'.
Look what we won.
What are the chances that he will pull an Arlen Specter?
All of the RINO crew will IMMEDIATELY go scorched earth as soon as one of their darlings gets primaried.
Such is the benefit of electing unprincipled idiots.
And its stinkin' to high heaven.
Because he's stinking to high heaven.
If he chooses to retire, she would likely get the nomination.
Yes, but remember that he stole $18 million of that from his leftover 2012 coffers (unethically, and using a tactic that 'McCain-Feingold' would have banned).
Oops...meant 2008 coffers (McCain/Palin)
And he can be ambassador to Vietnam
That would be a 'maverick' thing to do. Chances are good.
He isn't any different today than he was at the time of his last run. He is just more transparent in his lunacy.
Thanks for the info. I have to fight off feelings of despair too frequently anymore.
At least here in Michigan the long struggle looks to be bearing fruit, or should I say the long suffering looks to be easing in our state.
He is going to run again. Getting his blood pressure up with censures, calling for his arrest and using Syrian clergy to upset him is a good idea in the long term of getting McCain out of office.
If Wil Cardon beat Jeff Flake maybe McCain would have someone to replace him.
Maybe Scott Smith can replace McCain.
I think Flake was a bigger mistake than McCain.
There was speculation by Numbersusa that Harry Reid had 59 Dream Act votes in 2010. If McCain had lost the primary he definitely would have given Reid the 60th for 2 million Dreamers.
McCain voted conservative for a few months.
He's not up till 2016.
Nope...judging from the stupid post she put on Facebook I think she'll probably endorse him again.
She's really, really stupid.
Yeah...that way he can personally make sure that our MIA's never get accounted for honestly.
maybe this will make him seriously consider not running again.
He often looks defeatable at this stage of the game, but then the other candidates show up, and the situation changes. I always vote for the guy not McCain that's polling best, at this point I don't care what we replace him with, but he keeps on winning.
Don't tease me.
I wouldn't call her stupid but my perception is more like flakey.
Polls ready do not mean anything. Tomorrow they could have another poll based on the people they chatted with will say,John Mccain,is doing an outstanding job.Like polls about Obama, say the same thing,low approval ratings and yet they defend,support thus allowing Obama to do whatever he wants. Polls also show Obamacare being the most chatted about law, yet the have not been able to stop Obama.No matter how many times congress chats with the press at the end of the day,Obamacare remains the same.Obama does what he wants and McCain will be the same chatted about often- but they still will keep re-electing him.
And in their poll for Louisiana Senate, Phil Robertson stomps Mary Landrieu with 97% of respondents.
Whose poll?
WOOoooooo - - -!
That selfie of Loser Emeritus McCain scared the "Obama" right out of me for at least the next three feeding cycles!
[ Now I have to buy a new chair! Obama! Obama! Obama! ]

The securities that I like best right now are an outstanding group of businesses that together should, over time, offer an investor nice income with capital growth; further, and importantly, an investor can own these businesses fractionally, knowing that if Mr. Market gets more pessimistic, he can simply buy more stock as the price drops. Indeed, it is actually beneficial for a long term investor to live through a pessimistic market that will give the buyer a better price to aquire more ownership in the businesses.
This group of businesses will provide a nice variety of stable earnings gained from a diversified group of franchises. Each franchise is based on a good idea and has a talented manager at the helm. These businesses have a history of delighting customers, holding costs down and improving products and services. Each business has a wide moat, and hopefully is widening its moat as I write.
I really investors are lucky these days; we are able to buy companies that are wonderful businesses, as confirmed by Warren Buffet , at reasonable prices. One doesn't really need to look further than Berkshire's stock portfolio to find great businesses to acquire; some of the companies in Berkshire's portfolio can actually be purchased for less than Berkshire's acquisition cost.
I like for purchase the following companies: Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B), American Express (NYSE:AXP), The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO), Conoco Phillips (NYSE:COP), Kraft Foods (KFT), Moody's (NYSE:MCO), The Procter and Gamble Company (NYSE:PG), U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:USB), Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT) and Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC).
These companies are not masquerading as the cream of the crop - they are the cream of the crop.
I will give a very brief thesis on each, with confidence that my real reason for liking them is that Mr. Buffet likes them.
- Berkshire is great here. A key Berkshire watcher places fair value for Berkshire at $157,000. Berkshire currently is about 25% off its high and continues to be a stronghold of excellent businesses that are well managed. The key, though, is that these managers are honest and work hard for shareholders.
- American Express is a wonderful franchise and can be bought now in the thirties, having traded as high as $66 per share. Recessions give opportunities to aquire great companies on the cheap as Mr. Market is gloomy. This is one of those opportunities. Also, a noted Buffet watcher recently advocated Buffet taking American Express out completely. Hmmm…
- Coca-Cola nicely rounds out the beverage portion of this portfolio. Returns on equity over the last several decades, I believe, hovers over 40%.
- Conoco Phillips is Warren's energy company and energy is, well, needed. The dividend is sweet, too.
- Kraft is my favorite investment now. This business is loaded with consumer monopoly type brands that people love and they are able to raise prices. You can buy some KFT for less than Berkshire payed.
- Moody's is one of two companies in their space. They have a huge market share and you can now get in inexpensively because of recent short term mistakes.
- Procter and Gamble is maybe the best consumer products company in the world.
- U.S. Bancorp is one of the two best run banks in the world. When the poor operators go, the best take the market share.
- Wells Fargo is the other best run bank in the world. It is managed conservatively and doesn't go out looking to raise capital by diluting shareholders. These guys generate capital. They have made returns on equity over 20% for years and operated well during this recent debacle. They will gain share.
- Wal-Mart is the king of retailers and recently signed Martha Stewart. They are the low cost operator and people now want to keep costs down.
