A resource for youth football coaches (ages 14 and younger), parents of
youth football players, and youth football players.
Joe Galat serves as the president of AYF. He is also employed by
FieldTurf Tarkett as vice president of sales and dean of the FieldTurf
Sports Science Institute. Joe's leadership began early as captain of the
Harvey High School (Painesville, Ohio) and Miami University (Ohio)
football and wrestling teams. At Miami University, he was elected
president of the Varsity Letterman's Club and was named Outstanding
Student Athlete in his senior year. Playing honors included selections
to the All-Ohio All-Star High School Team and All-Mid-American
Conference. Joe's football experience was honed by some of the game's
greats: Bo Schembechler, Carm Cozza, and John McVay. When Pro Football
Hall of Fame coach George Allen was owner of Montreal, he appointed Joe
to be his head coach. Joe then went on to become head coach and general
manager of the British Columbia Lions of the Canadian Football League.
He coached college football at Miami University, Yale University,
University of Kentucky, and Youngstown State University. In 1982, Joe
was inducted into the Miami University Hall of Fame. He was also
inducted into the Painesville Harvey High School Hall of Fame (along
with the NFL's winningest coach, Don Shula). After his coaching days,
Joe was national color commentator for CBC-TV Sports. This experience
gave him the distinction of having held every position in organized
football (player, coach, manager, broadcaster, and youth executive). Joe
has participated in youth football clinics in the United States, Canada,
and Mexico, and throughout Europe and Russia. Joe was also honored as a
Kentucky Colonel by Governor Wendell Ford.
"Greater than my experience as one of Joe's Yale players in the early
'70s is the fortune I've enjoyed for more than two decades through my
marriage to Kathy Johnson, Olympic medalist in gymnastics. This
relationship has reaffirmed for me the paramount lesson imbued by my
dear old friend and coach: There is more to be gleaned from sport than
mere winning and losing. Joe Galat's focus on fundamentals, team
orientation, character development, and, above all, enjoying the process
is completely consistent with the elements for enduring success long
after the roar of the crowd has dimmed."
Brian Patrick Clarke--Actor and Former Yale Football Player
"I am proud to say that I have coached youth football for the past
several years and have come to the realization that it involves far more
than just Xs and Os. Promoting academic achievement, preparing for the
season, ordering equipment, getting coaches to share a vision, coaching
kids who are new to the game, and dealing with parents—the
infrastructure of the organization alone can be a challenge to many
rookie coaches. Joe Galat's Coaching Youth Football provides you with
all the essentials to ensure your time spent with your kids and parents
will be prime time."
Deion Sanders--NFL and MLB All-Star
"Coaching Youth Football by Joe Galat is the youth coach's playbook
on the fundamentals of youth coaching. It provides essential information
on coaching a youth football team—from the first day of practice to the
final game of the season."
Jim Tressel--Head Football Coach,The Ohio State University
"Joe Galat was my linebackers coach when I was head coach of the New
York Giants. Joe's insight on the basic fundamentals of the game
detailed in this book will help everyone who is interested in teaching
safe football techniques."
John McVay--Former NFL Head Coach,Former San Francisco 49ers Vice
President of Football Operations;1989 NFL Executive of the Year
"I first met Joe Galat at the age of 14 at the Cape Cod Massachusetts
Football Camp. Getting the opportunity to learn the game the right way
from Joe at a young age not only increased the chances of me being
successful on the field but also increased my chances of staying injury
free. Joe went on to coach in the National Football League with the New
York Giants and Houston Oilers. Joe coached a number of great players
during his years in the NFL, including two Hall of Famers, Harry Carson
and Elvin Bethea. In Coaching Youth Football, along with its
online course, Coaching Youth Football the AYF Way, Joe
breaks down football fundamentals into simple, teachable techniques that
are easy to grasp and execute and will be a great benefit to those
serious about learning how to coach the great sport of football."

Headed to Missouri to hunt snows this weekend. Anyone up there got a report on if they showed up yet or not? Going to be in NW Missouri.
Headed to Missouri to hunt snows this weekend. Anyone up there got a report on if they showed up yet or not? Going to be in NW Missouri.
Only 18,900 counted at Squaw Creek NWR. NW winds forecasted for the next week will keep the big push of birds held up for a while. Good luck, shoot 'em in the face!
"Appears to have been a glitch or two." Sheriff Ed Tom Bell
Been seeming them pretty regularly for the last two days. Flying high and heading north. Scouting report from the Sedalia area. Good luck!!
North east is starting to get some in, I heard moderate flocks flying last night. I know a few guys putting spreads out this weekend.
Had a friend email me today saying he saw three big groups in central missouri this morning. He estimated around. 30-40k total.
You might kill some birds but as said above you're early.....the good news is that the snow is melting in NEMO and I assume it's melting in NWMO as well assuming it hasn't already.....don't think they got as much over there as we did over here. The bad news I guess is that there is more snow in the extended forecast and highs next week are supposed to be in the 20's again.....
Shawn....I haven't seen any light geese where I normally seen them. TONS of Canadas and Specks around though. Sat for half an hour on the side of the road after work today watching Canadas land all over a corn stubble field and in the creek next to it.
Yea guide just called and said no numbers yet…not good hunts so far this week. Trying to decide if we should go ahead and go or go on March 8-10 or just hold off till next year.
A buddy told me they were still killing them in Arkansas.

Morning gang. Coastal NC preparing for Tropical Storm Andrea, first named storm of the year. Supposed to be a rain event, which my weeds will be thankful for. Actually, I put in 10 new boxwoods, and several Azalea plants, as long as there's no flooding, the extra water will do them good.
Y'all have a great day celebrating God's word.

Man accused in 2010 gang killing arrested in Mexico
19-year-old killed in shooting
MADISON, Wis. - A man accused of killing a 19-year-old in a gang-related shooting on Madison's east side in 2010 has been arrested in Mexico.
The U.S. Marshals Service and Madison Police Department said Saturday that Arain Gutierrez, also known as Ivan Mateo-Lozenzo, was arrested by Mexican authorities Friday in Cancun.
Gutierrez is charged in the April 28, 2010, shooting death of Antonio Perez in the parking lot at Webcrafters on Fordem Avenue in Madison.
Prosecutors said a group of five had gone out looking for rival gang members when they saw Perez taking a break outside his workplace.
The criminal complaint said the group confronted Perez about his gang affiliation, then shot him after learning he was a member of the Clanton 14, or C14 gang.
Prosecutors said they believe Gutierrez was the gunman in the fatal shooting.
Investigation after the shooting resulted in the immediate arrest of three suspects.
Gutierrez and another suspect, Billy Wenner-Say, were able elude arrest and flee the Madison area, police said.
U.S. marshals and Madison police believed both fled to their home countries: Gutierrez to Mexico and Wenner-Say to Guatemala.
Within the last six months, investigation showed Gutierrez in Cancun, Mexico. During that time, the Dane County District Attorney's Office provided the necessary legal support for Gutierrez international arrest warrant, according to a joint news release from the U.S. Marshals Service and Madison Police Department.
"This type of senseless gang violence will not be tolerated in the city of Madison, and for more than 2 1/2 years the Madison Police Department has been working diligently and cooperatively with the U.S. Marshals Service and the Dane County District Attorney, to make sure this fugitive did not escape justice. This case demonstrates, again, the strong relationship that exists between the MPD and U.S. marshals," the Madison Police Department said in a statement.
Gutierrez will be transported to Mexico City, where he will await extradition, according to the release.

DCS 15" Built-In Ice Maker
Sorry, the manufacturer is no longer producing this product.
Description & Highlights
DCS 15" Built-In Outdoor Ice Maker - 35lb. Capacity
The DCS by Fisher & Paykel 15" Ice Maker (RF15I) is going to remove a lot of worry and running-around when it comes to outdoor living and entertainment. This outdoor ice maker provides a seemingly limitless supply of ice on tap for any occasion - up to 35 pounds of clear ice a day. Its brushed stainless steel finish and built-in application adds a level of sophistication to any space.
The DCS ice maker is unique in forming ice, using fractional freezing to form a slab of ice that is clear and has less mineral content than the water it is produced from. This is accomplished by running water over the cold evaporator plate which gradually freezes the water to produce the ice slab. Mineral deposits are left in the reservoir, and not contained in the cube itself. When the ice slab reaches the correct thickness determined by the temperature of the evaporator plate, the electronic control switches to the harvest cycle to harvest the ice.
During the harvest cycle, the ice slab falls from the evaporator to the ice grid cutter. Here, the ice slab is cut into 3/4" squares by the grid cutter's heated wires. During the harvest cycle, the drain valve will remain open for 45 seconds to drain the reservoir of remaining deposits and Presto! - just like that, you and your guests are enjoying ice-cold lemonades and daiquiris without ever having to trek back and forth from the house.
NOTE: The DCS drain pump (RF15I) is required to run this unit, and it is not included with the ice maker
Completely Automatic Operation:Ice production will continue until the ice maker's bin is full and will restart automatically when ice needs to be replenished
Durable and Sturdy Construction:Brushed stainless steel exterior with leveling legs
- Necessary Accessory: The DCS Drain Pump (RF15I) is necessary for the ice maker to function

Symposium, exhibition honor Wen Fong, April 1-2
Posted March 23, 2006; 09:52 p.m.
"Bridges to Heaven," an international symposium on East Asian art in
honor of Professor Wen Fong's 45 years of teaching at Princeton, is
scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, April 1-2, in McCosh 50.
The event will run from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. each day and will feature 15 paper presentations by several of Fong's students and colleagues. A related festschrift including 40 papers will be published following the event.
A scholar of Chinese art history, Fong was born in Shanghai and received a classical Chinese education, including training as a painter and calligrapher. In 1948 he came to Princeton, where he earned his A.B. in 1951, joined the faculty as instructor after receiving his M.F.A. in 1954 and earned his Ph.D. in 1958. The conference takes its name from his landmark dissertation and the resultant publication "The Lohans and a Bridge to Heaven."
Fong also served as faculty curator of Asian art at the University Art Museum and as special consultant for Asian affairs and head of the Asian art department at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. He was named the Edwards S. Sanford Professor of Art History in 1971 and transferred to emeritus status in 1999.
A related exhibition at the University Art Museum, "Worldly Guardians of the Buddhist Law," features a Chinese handscroll painting acquired in honor of Fong. The scroll, "Baimiao Lohans," was painted by Ming-dynasty artist Ding Yunpeng in 1580 and is on view at the museum through July 9. A lohan is an enlightened being entrusted by Buddha to guard the law.
The symposium is sponsored by the Tang Center for East Asian Art, the University Art Museum and the Department of Art and Archaeology. More information is available online.

Another red, white and blue box in my mail box....
When I saw these, I knew I had to have one of them. First of all, they are cool. Second, they run great. I sweet scratcher that purrs softly, clucks kindly, and gives a sweet yelp. The size and shape make it easy to run, just fits your hand so perfect. I like this one.
Most of all, when I read these were made from Dick Kirby's wood pile, that was the tipping point. When I was a little kid, I met Mr. Kirby at a local outdoor show. I'd never heard a turkey call before, simply because I didn't grow up in a family that chased them. Dad bought me my very first call from Mr. Kirby, and though a dozen years would go by before I was officially diagnosed with this turkey hunting affliction, I remember back then so vividly hearing Dick Kirby running all those calls on his table.
That man hooked me right there and then with tons of curiosity. Thank you Mr. Kirby. And Thank you Bob Fulcher -- you made a sweet little scratch box that holds a special place for me.

Aryl hydrocarbons induce transcription of the cytochrome P450 1A1 gene (CYP1A1) through aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) activation. CYP1A1 is therefore used as a biomarker for exposure to AHR agonists such as the environmental toxicant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD). CYP1A1 induction can be monitored at the transcription level by northern blot analysis, qPCR or gene reporter assay, and at the protein level by western blot or CYP1A1 enzyme activity measurement. While transcriptional analysis and western blotting are labor intensive, the present cell based CYP1A1 enzyme assay is rapid, native and portable, meaning it can potentially be used on any unmodified AH-responsive cell type.
Here we describe this rapid, nondestructive bioluminescent cell based CYP1A1 enzyme assay. The assay uses a cell permeable bioluminogenic CYP1A1 substrate. Bioluminogenic substrates are proluciferins that are converted by the enzymes of interest to a product that is detected in a bioluminescent reaction with luciferase, correlating light output with target enzyme activity. A certain, proprietary bioluminogenic compound showed exquisite CYP1A1 selectivity over all other CYPs from a panel of 21 that were tested. In hepatocytes and HepG2 cells the assay detected robust activations by TCDD in a 96 well format. The non-disruptive format of the bioluminogenc assays left cells intact for an additional viability assay so that cytotoxicity and AHR activity was assessed from single culture wells. This bioluminescent assay enables a high throughput cell-based method for screening of AHR agonists.

Saw this piece of news today over at collectstarwars.com. Not affecting me too much cos I don't keep those cards anyway. But I do have a few pieces of those with pretty nice picture / artworks on them and I have no doubt they do the best SW CCG cards the market can offer. Heres the news quoted from CSW site :
"(12/27/01 8:19 PM PST Bananapunk)
For a few months now, rumor has been circulating that Decipher was not offered a renewal on their Star Wars license by Lucasfilm. With Hasbro's acquisition of Wizards of the Coast, the appeal of streamlining LFL's licensing partnerships certainly came to play. Today, Warren Holland, President and CEO of Decipher, issued a statement to make it official. It's certainly a sad day for CCG fans everywhere! Here's an excerpt from Holland's transcript:
But... I have to be very honest and say that I don't believe this decision is a very wise one on the part of Lucasfilm, and I'm not really telling you anything that I haven't already told them. However, Lucasfilm is the owner of the Star Wars property. And within certain limits, they can do with it as they wish and we all have to accept that. Also, as many of you know, Hasbro is a master toy licensee for Star Wars and George Lucas is a 10% owner of the company. And... It's no secret that Hasbro paid $500 million for the Star War license and it just hasn't performed that well for them. So, I think we had to contend with all of that. "

Its sad. And I hope Hasbro was removed of its 12" license and Dragon will take over


text: This does not exactly belong on this forum. Three of our checks have been 'lost' in the last 6 months. One has never surfaced, one was found in the lady's ( recipient ) neighbor's yard and so saved. The last one was cashed by someone. It was written with one of those inks ( pens ) that can not be 'washed' from the check very easily. The bank says that the check showed a lot of smearing but was still clear enough for someone to cash it somewhere. What do any of you know about this kind of crime ? We will be turning it over to LE officer but I would like info on what other people know before we talk to him. I think that I should add that the check was for a few hundred dollars but the thief was not able to alter it in any way.

Spooky Happenings Around Marathon…
We're always up for a good scare here at Tranquility Bay. And while some other Marathon hotels like to raise their prices around Halloween (now that's scary!) we prefer haunted trails to price hikes. So we'll be sure to swing by The Haunted Hammock at Crane Point Nature Conservatory, a fun-filled Halloween treat that is not to be missed. Children 12-and-under are sure to have a spooky good time– check out our blog post highlighting this special Halloween treat here.
This Wednesday, October 31st, ghosts and ghouls of all ages are invited to trick-or-treat at Gulfside Village, a shopping plaza located at 5800 Overseas Highway. This annual Halloween party is free to all from 5:30 to 7:30 and includes refreshments, candy and a great all-ages atmosphere. Don your best costume and bring the whole family– we'll see you there!

What do I consider torture of an individual who was picked up on a battlefield and is our enemy?
1) ..mmmmmmm ..well ..let me see .hummm .ok well there is, no ummmm
Humm pretty short list.
What do I not consider torture?
1)Anything that gets the job done and potentially saves the lives of anyone, be it American or otherwise that the person in question is an enemy of.
As stated in another post, I love that everyone feels they are granted the right to know who, what, where, and when of every NATIONAL SECURITY issue that comes up. I have no problem sleeping in my bed at night knowing that somewhere in the world someone is doing what some might consider bad things to someone else to keep me, my loved ones, and my country safe. I thank those who do the job everyday and especially today.

Hope for patients suffering from autoimmune diseases - Daiichi Sankyo, Amplimmune to collaborate on fusion protein R&D
Singapore: Daiichi Sankyo and Amplimmune have entered into a strategic collaboration to develop a new therapeutic protein, AMP-110 (B7-H4 fusion protein), a potential immune modulation therapy for autoimmune diseases. This proprietary, first-in-class biologic works by blocking inflammatory T cell differentiation. The parties expect to initiate a phase I clinical study for the compound for the treatment of an autoimmune disease indication during the first half of 2013.
Under the terms of the agreement, Daiichi Sankyo will pay Amplimmune an undisclosed option fee and provide more than $50 million to reimburse past and planned R&D costs for AMP-110, including funding for future development through a phase II. Amplimmune also will be eligible to receive additional program milestone payments during the collaboration period. Through the phase II study, Daiichi Sankyo will have an exclusive option to acquire the AMP-110 program.
Amplimmune will be responsible for manufacturing clinical supplies, regulatory filings and conducting clinical trials through a point-of-care (POC) study in autoimmunity. Amplimmune and Daiichi Sankyo expect to collaborate on research to further elucidate the characteristic of AMP-110 and to identify potential biomarkers to predict patient response to AMP-110. If Daiichi Sankyo exercises its exclusive option to acquire the AMP-110 program, then following such acquisition Daiichi Sankyo will be solely responsible for all future development, manufacturing and commercialization.
"This collaboration strengthens our commitment to working with partners that are at the forefront of science," said Dr Glenn Gormley, global head of R&D and senior executive officer, Daiichi Sankyo. "Immune modulation therapy is one of the exciting areas of autoimmune disease research that has the potential to meet an unmet medical need. As a Global Pharma Innovator, identifying and meeting unmet medical needs is an important part of Daiichi Sankyo's mission. We are excited to start with the first trial."
"We are very pleased to be collaborating with Daiichi Sankyo on AMP-110," said Mr Michael S Richman, Amplimmune's president and CEO. Mr Richman continued, "This unique transaction allows Amplimmune to collaborate with an important and well-respected partner and positions the program for an acquisition that will provide significant value for both Daiichi Sankyo and our shareholders."

Wow, Vegas was a trip. We arrived thursday night and checked into the luxor, wonderfully kitsch egyption decor, inclinators (escalators that move in an angle, really amusing when you're drunk) and the vegas casino scene (no windows, no clocks, no way to figure out what the time is).
So basically the trip involved drinking margaritas at the pool, eating goot expensive food (oh man, the steak at mon ami blabla was the best steak I've ever had</a>), and getting drunk at the roulette (yeah yeah, so I lost money, but I had a good time) and thereafter just getting a bit more drunk.
My flight out was at 7:40, so I spend most of the night with three brits in the Nefertiti Lounge at the luxer, inflicting liverdamage with the help of whiskey-sours and corona (you can't get decent beer in these hotels).
I of course almost managed to miss my flight home, so I got upgraded to first class (boohoo), fell asleep before we took off and didn't wake up till we had landed, excellent.
Now I have sunburns on my legs, more sunscreen next time.
Oh yeah, click here for the proof (bemaerk forresten haaret, naesten normalt!).
I'm still looking for a job, have had a few interviews but still no offers. Also some more recruiters from agenciens saying "we don't want no steenkin' H1b's". So my deadline for a job is around start of june, since my employment/eazel will stop mid-june and so will my cashflow. So somewhere around that time I'll have to decide what to do with my life (og mangel paa samme).
Heh, intet at sige som ikke taaler dagens lys i denne omgang. Tak til de folk som har skrevet og sagt buhu at firmaet doede, luner i disse haarde kolde tider.
Nope, need a job first...

Put on a tight-fitting pair of disposable gloves to prevent palms from turning brown. Apply a liberal amount of Summer Glow™ evenly to each section of your body, starting with the lower portion and working your way up. Allow the product to dry before getting dressed and, by all means, stay away from the water until your tan has developed (about 6–8 hours later). The longer you keep the product on your skin, the deeper the tan will develop. To build an even darker tan, reapply the next day.
LOVE the color on my skin n the mitt makes the tanning experience so EASY!
I was a huge fan of the old All Seasons Glow product and this is a great replacement. The mousse dries really fast and the color if amazing but not too dark. I also love the kit pricing. The Application Mitt is a must have. Thanks for making it a reasonable price.
Thank you Beautisol for bringing back the medium tanner. I LOVE the new formula more than the lotion one before! Having the app mitt with the mousse is great!

ASUS 2900 XT and 8800 Ultra Compared
Power Consumption Tests
Using our new PROVA Power Analyzer WM-01 or "Power Thingy" as it has become quickly known as to our readers, we are now able to find out what kind of power is being used by our test system and the associated graphics cards installed. Keep in mind; it tests the complete system (minus LCD monitor, which is plugged directly into AC wall socket).
There are a few important notes to remember though; while our maximum power is taken in 3DMark06 at the same exact point, we have seen in particular tests the power being drawn as much as 10% more. We test at the exact same stage every time; therefore tests should be very consistent and accurate.
The other thing to remember is that our test system is bare minimum - only a 7,200RPM SATA-II single hard drive is used without CD ROM or many cooling fans.
So while the system might draw 400 watts in our test system, placing it into your own PC with a number of other items, the draw is going to be higher.
The Ultra is the most expensive and fastest card on the retail market and it still draws less power than the HD 2900 XT.

|Dble Haul
Pattern update....
I've found that the body of dubbing can be easily replaced with an appropriately colored ice chenille. If you're not a fan of having to dub bodies (like me), this might be a good alternate. The fly is just as good, and maybe even a touch better because of the added subtle flash provided by the chenille.
Also, I've been asked why I bother to put the zonker strip through the hook point vs. just tying it in zonker style (i.e., an anchor point at the hook bend and an anchor point at the tie off for the strip). The reason is one of balance....with the strip impaled on the hook and then lashed down by the ribbing, it lies very straight behind the bend. When tied in zonker style, it tends to roll this fly a bit, regardless of the strip length.
|Dble Haul
Conehead Bunny Leech (swap fly)
Here's my swap fly.....
Cone head bunny leech (yellow)
Hook: 2XL, size 6
Head: Gold cone, size to match hook
Thread: Yellow Unicord, 6/0
Ribbing: Copper wire
Body: Any dark yellow dubbing
Tail: Yellow zonker strip
Collar: Yellow deer hair
1. Place the gold cone head on the hook, place the hook in the vise, and start the thread. Form a thin and even thread underbody. Bring the thread back to the rear of the hook.
2. Tie in a length of copper wire at the rear of the hook. Ensure that it is well secured.
3. Dub the body forward, stopping approximately ½ way up the hook shank.
4. Take the hook out of the vise. Get an eyeball measurement of where the zonker strip will be in relation to the hook point when it is tied in. It should extend from ½ way up the hook shank (where the thread now is) to about a hook shanks length behind the fly. Using a bodkin, punch a hole through the strip and slide it onto the hook. Place the hook back into the vise and secure the lead end of the strip with thread. Secure the remainder of the strip with the copper wire by winding it forward over the remaining unsecured strip, starting at the hook bend and stopping at the thread tie-in point. Three or four wraps of ribbing should do it. Tie the wire off so that its nice and secure.
5. Tie in three or four bunches of deer hair just ahead of the zonker strip tie-in, but behind the cone head. When complete, push the cone head back against the collar. There should be about 1/5 to 1/4 of the hook shank remaining in front of the cone. Whip finish the thread behind the cone after the collar is complete.
6. Start the thread again ahead of the cone. Jam the cone back against the collar and build up a thread base that will maintain the cones new position. Whip finish and apply head cement if desired.
7. As a final step, trim the deer hair collar so that its uniform around the hook shank. It can even be trimmed to follow and continue the taper of the cone head if desired.
This pattern has proven itself for crappie, perch, and smallmouth bass. Yellow is the best color for me, but Ive also had good results with black, white, and white with a red collar. If you dont enjoy tying with deer hair, this is a nice pattern to build your confidence because the cone head actually acts as the packing tool.

|Pacific Northwest Sea Run Forum No such thing as rainbow trout, only landlocked steelhead
|Topic Review (Newest First)
3rd Meeting of the WSC-Join Us!!
On Sunday, the 11th of February at 6 p.m., the 3rd meeting of the General Membership of the Wild Steelhead Coalition will take place.
Catalyzed by closures of the World-Class steelhead fisheries in Washington State, the Wild Steelhead Coalition was formed to put a halt to the declining runs of wild steelhead in the Pacific Northwest. By changing management practices, fighting for habitat and doing anything within the power of the Wild Steelhead Coalition, the Coalition will fight to increase the numbers of wild steelhead returning to the waters of the Pacific Northwest.
The interim Board of Directors has been working very hard to put together by-laws, a membership structure, an action plan and a communication plan for the Wild Steelhead Coalition.
If you are at all interested please attend the meeting on the 11th at O.B. Williams in Seattle. The address is 1939 1st Ave South, which is 3 blocks south of Safeco Field on the Westside of 1st Ave. And please, bring your own chair.
At this meeting the Board of Directors will present by-laws and a membership structure. An action plan will be discussed as will the status of the Wild Steelhead Coalition as a non-profit organization.
This will also be the first chance for anyone interested in saving the wild steelhead of the Pacific Northwest to join this new and promising group. All attendees will also be given the chance to ask questions and present their ideas and comments.
Please join us in the fight for the Worlds greatest gamefish so that someday we may see the abundance of wild steelhead in our rivers that are forefathers enjoyed.
If you have any questions please email Ryan S. Petzold at firstname.lastname@example.com or at 425-438-8504 or Duggan Harman at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Armen Petrosyan vs. Warren Stevelmans on June 11 in Rome
- Written by Rian Scalia
On June 11 in Rome, Italy, KickBoxing International and Oktagon present a card main evented by Giorgio Petrosyan's brother, Armen Petrosyan vs. Warren Stevelmans.
Armen Petrosyan is coming off the biggest win of his career over Yoshihiro Sato and he'll look to continue his recent success when he takes on Warren Stevelmans. Stevelmans is coming off a win over Mohammed Medhar on March 6th for It's Showtime. He'll look to start a winning streak with a win over Armen.
Armen Petrosyan is the younger brother of Giorgio Petrosyan. He fights much more aggressively than his older brother. While not as good as Giorgio (Who is?), Armen is a very good fighter and Dave Walsh and myself had him just right outside the Middleweight top 10 at #11. Giorgio has fought and beaten Stevelmans before so Armen should be well prepared.
Warren Stevelmans trains out of the Vos Gym under Ivan Hippolyte. Despite being around kickboxing for a long time now, Stevelmans is still only 28. One of the toughest fighters around, Stevelmans is incredibly hard to stop having been stopped only once by Chahid Oulad El Hadj.
This should be a great fight and it adds to the list of big fights on June 11. It's Showtime will be in Poland on the same day and Jerome Le Banner will be taking on Stefan Leko also. It'll be another good weekend of kickboxing.

Here Comes The Sunfish
Student Exploration
That's 2.5 Tons of Fish!
How much is 2.5 tons of fish? Well, a Toyota Prius is 1.5 tons if that gives you some perspective. Now, when I say 2.5 tons of fish, I am not talking about fish as in plural, as in a pile of fish; I am talking 2.5 tons of fish as in one single adult Mola mola or Oceanic Sunfish
When some people see a Mola mola they comment it looks like something prehistoric, a hold-out from a lost age. But actually the first fish appears in the fossil record 500 million years ago, and most of the "modern" fish today appear as part of an adaptive radiation 100 million years ago. The Mola mola? It may be as recent as 40 million years ago. A baby (as far as fish species go), rather than being prehistoric (which technically it is), Mola mola are one of the most "modern" fish species out there. Go here to find out more about the Mola mola *http://oceansunfish.org/Rev%20Fish%20Biol%202010.pdf

Seeking more than a scholarly understanding of a Pentecostal form of Christianity called the Mazione church for her senior thesis, religion major Lily Cowles spent last summer in Mozambique conducting interviews with churchgoers about their beliefs and traditions. Here, she holds the flag of Mozambique out of her dorm room window.

Quintessentially Princeton
Inspired by their experiences in and out of the classroom, on campus and abroad, Princeton seniors immerse themselves in thesis projects that are often remembered as the defining experience of their academic careers.
The University requires all students to complete a thesis, challenging them to develop as independent thinkers by pursuing original research in close collaboration with a faculty adviser. The April 13 and 20 issues of the Princeton Weekly Bulletin profile students who have met that intellectual challenge by producing rigorous, inventive works of scholarship in subjects such as religion, astrophysical sciences, mechanical and aerospace engineering, theater and dance, and politics.

Taking an intimate view of religion in Mozambique
Posted May 4, 2009; 10:10 a.m.
From the April 13, 2009, Princeton Weekly Bulletin
Religion major Lily Cowles' senior thesis began with a sign.
During the summer after her sophomore year, Cowles was volunteering in the southern African nation of Mozambique. En route to and from the orphanage where she was working, she noticed a sign announcing Mazione church services, and her curiosity was piqued.
Cowles investigated a bit while she was there, but found it difficult given that the congregations don't meet in actual church buildings and she didn't speak Portuguese, the nation's official language. She set about learning everything she could about the religion upon her return to Princeton.
As she discovered, the Mazione church is a Pentecostal form of Christianity, which emphasizes spiritual renewal through the Holy Spirit, often in purification rituals held on beaches. But Cowles wasn't satisfied with just a scholarly understanding of the church.
Reading theological and social analyses of the church, Cowles said, "I kept thinking, 'I don't think this is how the people would think of their religion if they were given an opportunity to talk about it.' That's how I came up with wanting to make a film, to let them speak for themselves."
With an intention to create a documentary based on first-person interviews, Cowles had her work cut out for her -- in just one academic year, she needed to learn Portuguese and filmmaking. Those weren't the only challenges she faced: Upon arrival in Mozambique the summer before her senior year, her living arrangements fell through and she found herself with nowhere to stay. Undeterred, Cowles contacted her visa agent at the U.S. embassy in New York City online via Skype, and he told her to call his mother in Mozambique. His family "adopted" Cowles, who lived with them for the summer and now calls them multiple times a week to check in (which they expect of their children).
Cowles discusses her senior thesis project -- a documentary on the Mazione church in Mozambique -- with adviser Wallace Best, a professor of religion and African American studies. The film is intended to let the churchgoers speak for themselves about their religion, according to Cowles.
"What I discovered and try to show in the film is that the Maziones seem to have felt a distinction between the Christian religion and their familial, ancestral tradition," Cowles said. "The church aligns the Christian doctrines in the Bible and the cultural traditions of southern Mozambique.
"For them, the Mazione church is a preservation of the traditional within what they think of as an acceptable modern context," Cowles added, noting that many people she spoke with expressed a degree of defensiveness about being perceived as primitive or tribal.
With the emphasis on healing, both spiritually and physically, the church competes with the traditional healers in the culture known as "curandeiros," who charge large sums of money for their services and are often too expensive for people of little economic means. Since the majority of Mazione adherents in Mozambique are poor, with little to no access to education or health care, the church also helps provide for their basic needs.
"Lily's film on Pentecostalism in Mozambique attempts to capture a sense of the construction of this religious practice in an urban area characterized by migration and social dislocation," said her adviser Wallace Best, a professor of religion and African American studies. "Hers will be the first significant examination of Pentecostalism -- the fastest growing religion in the world -- in this African nation. I have seen parts of the film and can report that it is a brilliant and brilliantly sensitive portrayal of church worship and belief. The fieldwork is impeccable and thorough, and the filming is of the highest quality."
Somewhat fitting for a religion major, Cowles grew up in a little town called Bethlehem, Conn. The daughter of two actors, she planned to pursue theater and dance at Princeton and was in the University's world premiere production of "Boris Godunov" in her sophomore year. ("This was the second most amazing thing I've done at Princeton, after my thesis," she said.)
Increasingly fascinated by religion, and the mystery it contains, she ultimately chose to major in religion and combine her studies with her interest in the arts.
"With my thesis, I wanted to challenge myself and creatively approach academia," she said. "That's what the thesis is all about -- having an idea, taking risks and seeing how far you can push yourself."

US health and human services nominee Kathleen Sebelius recently corrected three years of tax returns and paid more than $7,000 in back taxes after finding "unintentional errors" the latest tax troubles for an Obama administration nominee.
The Kansas governor explained the changes to senators in a letter dated yesterday that the administration released. She said they involved charitable contributions, the sale of a home and business expenses.
Sebelius said she filed the amended returns as soon as the errors were discovered by an accountant she hired to scrub her taxes in preparation for her confirmation hearings. She and her husband, Gary, a federal magistrate judge in Kansas, paid a total of $7,040 in back taxes and $878 in interest to amend returns from 2005-2007.
Several Obama administration nominees have run into tax troubles, notably the president's first nominee for HHS secretary, former Senate Democratic leader Tom Daschle. He withdrew from consideration while apologising for failing to pay $140,000 in taxes and interest.

- Best Christian movie in a long while! by Honey on 6/26/2013
This movie is fantastic and really gets the message to stand for what is right and to take a stand against what is wrong in this nation. It's a great movie that honors all veterans who have fought and are fighting for freedom. It is a must see and we have given several copies as gifts.
- Was excellant by poesch on 4/9/2013
We saw this last Sunday, what a powerful message for all Christians to stand for our freedoms and not sit by and see them taken away one by one. Was very emotional and definately need the kleenix handy. I recommend every church and Christian see this
- Amazing must see movie! by Mrshendryx on 12/5/2012
I saw this movie in the theater, and it was amazing. Make sure you have your tissues handy. This was a powerful movie. Noone in the theater talked, moved, or even left when it was over. Everyone sat until the last credit rolled and then broke into applause. There are cheesy parts, but the message is amazing.

I picked up Neyo for myself yesterday, left a 2nd Stormie on the pegs. No sign of the other 2 Fan's Choice in that batch.
I opened my Indiana Jones Snake Pit Deluxe set yesterday and found a surprise: a big dead moth in the packaging. Probably about as long as my thumbnail. Weird. The set's kinda neat, but I think I'd enjoy the idol trap more... they didn't have any with good paint on Indy when I looked last week. Silly, since I don't even care about the cheap pack-in figures on those sets.

RE:Fishing Firsts
Brad -
It was great to see you break the ice so quickly out on the outside surf of SB, and congrats on your 30" fish on a fly on the inside flats.
As I recall from last year you do have a bit of luck with the fishies... could be all that CCA work!
see you on the next one,
Fishing Firsts
First off it was a pleasure to meet all of the poeple fishing Saturday at the clave, I had a ball. This was a day of firsts for me. I caught my first ever fish in the surf it was a blast to see the fish right in front of me swimming inside of the wave just under the surface. I saw my first school of bass on the flats. I did not really know what to look for but a double row of 20 large fish cruising away from you is hard to mistake. I also caught my first bass of 30 inches out on those flats. I cannot wait to do it again. Thanks Juro for putting it all together.

Very nice, very nice. Kudos to the costume department.

Several who've seen the play have mentioned that very point, TI. So I guess I've done well, then. What did Jon Lovitz say? "ACTING!" ;)
We start our last three shows tonight.
You look so much like the actor who played Thomas Putnam in my production of the Crucible, it's almost scary! Is there a particular "Putnam look" every director goes after? lol
Ever since I had seen Tim Burton's Sweeny Todd, I have wanted to see an actual stage production. There is one coming to Ames but I have to work.:cry:
I was going to go see King Lear with Ian McKellan when it came to Minneapolis a few years ago, but that didnt happen. But I got the DVD of the production. Here's a trailer.
EDIT: Hah hah looks like you can watch the entire play right on the website. I didnt buy the DVD, it was given to me.
Went to see our local theater's A Christmas Carol last night, in its second run of an every-other-year tradition. Saw several actors and directors I've worked with. It was fun.
Scrooge changes his mean ways at the end.
My college is putting on an adaptation of A Handmaid's Tale and I'm going to be a soldier with just a few lines. It's my first play, so hopefully I don't screw it up too much. :p
Ah, how many times have I said that very phrase (minus the "first play" part) myself... :rolleyes:
Congrats on making the cast, JJL. Break a leg! :thumbsup:
Thanks! Tonight is opening night. I've since switched from a soldier to an Eye, which is a higher-ranking sort of officer, and I also play a shopkeeper and a reporter (all of these may or may not be the same character . . . I think they are). The director has been changing many aspects of the play both big and small so I hope we can pull it together and make it work.
I got "noticed" yesterday! A student said to me upon entering the school's library, "I saw you in that play, The Crucible. Who were you again?" It took me a moment to remember Ol' T.P.'s name, but I said he was "the one the audience was supposed to hate and boo." But alas, no autograph request. :(
Oh, and I saw our local production of Rent last night. Powerfully good acting, even if few are local actors (this is a different category of "local theater," as it brings in talent from all over due to the popularity of the script; last year, it was Sweeney Todd). Great show.

Betta fish - new 5 gal., filtered tank - unhappy/sick? Black head
I recently purchased a nice tank for my betta fish who was living in a tight, 1/2 tank. I wanted to give him a nicer home.
Since I've moved him, I can't tell if he's happy or not. How can I tell? Also, it seems like his head, and back towards his body is turning black/gray. I'm new to bettas and I'm not sure if this is normal and just his coloring or an indication of something else. I understand this could be a result of ammonia in the water. I used a de-chlorinator, and tap water conditioner, specifically made for Bettas (I think Aquaeon was the brand).
I don't have a heater in there at the time, and the tank temp is right around 70 degrees. I have a filter and a small re-circulating pump. I think I might be able to turn the turbulence down as I understand Bettas don't care for that to much.
Here are some photos. Any thoughts on the black head and how to tell if he's sick, unhappy and how to improve either of those? Thanks in advance.

Thank you for getting your betta a proper sized tank! He's a beauty!
Nothing looks out of the ordinary in his coloring to me. Bettas often change color as they age.
What kind of filter do you have in the tank? And do you have a heater?
Make sure the filter has an adjustable flow that can be turned way down. Bettas do not appreciate a lot of water flow but still need a filter.
You'll want to keep the temperature around 80*F to really keep him happy and healthy.
I really like your aquascaping. Looks fantastic! I would recommend some floating plants and/or taller plants like vals or sags... your betta will appreciate them!"The Dumpster Tank" 26g flat back hex - Bolivian rams, Checker barbs, Harlequin and porkchop rasbora, neon tetra, SAE, otocinclus
"Mini Mbuna" 20g long - 1 M. pulpican, 1 M. joanjohnsonae
"Electric Blue Acara Tank" 75g - Giant danio, tiger barb, Bristlenose pleco
his colors are gorgeous. It is surprising he is doing so well at that temperature.
get a heater(3-5 watts per gallon, so 25 watt for 5 gallons) and put the temperature at 26-30°C or approx. 80-86 fahrenheit. bettas like it much warmer than most tropical fish.
That is the Fluval spec V!! I love that tank I got one for my Betta at my office too . Great scape you have going there. Dont worry about the color change your fish looks good. Only worry if he is getting pale(losing color), that is a sign of stress and underlying problems. When I got my betta it was white and purplish, now its dark blue,red and white.
I agree with every here get him a heater. I use 50 watt heater set at 78 deg. The water temp is usually around 79 and 80 deg. I wont recommended getting the smaller heaters they tend to break more often.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm new to bettas and aquarium-keeping in general so I appreciate the suggestions. I've already put in a heater.
"Walter" (betta) appears to enjoy his new home. I did some research and got him some suitable tankmates. I have a half dozen or so ghost shrimp (some have eggs!) and four neon tetra, two of which didn't make it. Not from Walter but from the new tank I suspect...or diseased when I bought them.
I set up the aquascape and tank myself. Thanks for the compliments. I like it though might add more plant material later.
I love this particular tank. Simple, clean lines and the LED light has a nightlight function which looks nice.
He doesn't need tankmates. The shrimp may be ok but he might make them lunch.
A 5g is too small for any additional fish."The Dumpster Tank" 26g flat back hex - Bolivian rams, Checker barbs, Harlequin and porkchop rasbora, neon tetra, SAE, otocinclus

Hi! You're doing right by your Betta getting him some new digs, but there's a few things your missing, let me see if I can help!
First, the black coloring seems completely normal to me. Many of the deep blue varieties of Betta have this deep dark black head and top of back area. This is nothing to be alarmed about. If he had been stressed in his smaller tank, his colors (such as the rich black ) will be faded, and the more comfortable he gets, the brighter, deeper and more vibrant his color will become.
Heater: A real requirement with a Betta. I suggest a temp in the area of 78-82, constant. The actual point degree in accuracy is less important than a constant warm temperature. Betta do not handle temperature swings well, and it can trigger all sorts of diseases. Cool temperatures in particular are -bad- for betta, making them listless, lethargic, and very stressed making them prone to rotting diseases, and even velvet.
Plants and hiding spots: While the tank is lovely, it is too barren for a Betta. Though viewing your fish is great, Betta do pretty terrible in a sparce vulnerable and exposed environment. Silk or live plants that have voluminous leaves to weave around and hide, and that, most importantly -reach the surface- are critical to a happy Betta. They do sleep, and like to do so near the surface, resting in plant leaves. Do not bother with Betta logs or stick on "betta hammocks", they are pretty useless, silk plants with volumes of soft leaves that he can weave around will make for one happy fish.
Betta can do poorly in a cycling tank, their long fins make damage from ammonia burns, added to stress, a real factor of fin rot. Make sure to keep a tight eye on the water parameters, and do a water change immediately when required. Do not think "I can wait a day or so", or "Its high, but it can wait til the weekend". That's a big mistake.
Tank mates are not required, and the Betta will no doubt, eat shrimp. In a five gallon you are pressed for what you can add, and fish isn't one of them. The Betta himself takes up all the bio-availability of the tank by himself.
Hope this helps!2 10 gallon tanks, 1 20 gallon tank, 1 Fluval Edge, 1 29 gallon tank, and one backyard pond.
I have a 5-gallon tank as well. I advise a slightly overpowered heater. I forget the wattage on mine, but it's the size recommended for a 20-gallon tank. My office turns off the climate control over the weekend, so it gets pretty cold in the winter. A more powerful heater can deal with that.
I also agree that your tank, while lovely, is too bare for Walter's needs. Mine is almost fully planted with Java fern, and Ripley spends most of his time weaving in and out of it. His predecessor, Mooch, liked to lounge at the top of the leaves.

I just recieved an email showing the 2014 spring hunting dates. I was surprised to see them out this early, but it also seems they pushed the dates a week later.
2014 Turkey Season Dates
•Youth Hunt: April 12-13
•Period A: April 16-22
•Period B: April 23-29
•Period C: April 30 – May 6
•Period D: May 7-13
•Period E: May 14-20
•Period F: May 21-27
What do you all think of this? I am not sure of it. The only thing I know for sure is this means our LTH will be April 5-6 which would be the latest it has ever been by a couple days, before this it was usually right around the 1st of April.

Mecke, a Smithson Valley High graduate who carries a 3.95 grade-point average in mechanical engineering, also won the 2008 SLC Women's Cross Country Student-Athlete of the Year award in November, giving her two such honors in the same academic year.
One of the top middle-distance runners in the league, Mecke tallied a team-high 22.5 points at the SLC Indoor Championship in February. She won the 800 and 1,500 meters and anchored the distance medley relay team to the gold medal and was named the meet's Outstanding Track Performer.
A CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District VI selection last spring and a five-time SLC Commissioner's Honor Roll and President's List honoree, Mecke won the league's 800m title last year and captured the circuit's cross country crown en route to being named 2008 SLC Cross Country Athlete of the Year. She is taking a redshirt season during this outdoor campaign.
Samuel Kosgei of Lamar was honored as the SLC Men's Indoor Track and Field Student-Athlete of the Year.
The Southland Conference Awards Committee, which consists of one administrator from each of the 12 member schools, voted for the student-athletes of the year.
The student-athlete of the year award is presented to the one student-athlete who achieves excellence in both academics and athletics. All nominees shall have earned at least a 3.2 GPA on a 4.0 scale, and demonstrated athletics achievement for at least two years at the nominating institution.
Included in Capital One's support of the Southland Conference's Academic Awards Program is the F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship, the All-Academic Teams, the Student-Athlete of the Year, the Scholar-Athlete Award and the Commissioner's Honor Roll.
The combined all-academic team for cross country and indoor and outdoor track and field will be selected in June.
