Morningside College students go "Into the Streets" for community service
Nearly 400 Morningside College students will leave their classrooms and textbooks behind when they go "Into the Streets" for a morning of community service on Tuesday, March 23.
Organized by Morningside's chapter of Omicron Delta Kappa (ODK), a national leadership honor society, "Into the Streets" gives student groups and teams an opportunity to volunteer at more than 20 not-for-profit agencies in the Sioux City area from 9 a.m. to noon on March 23.
The Morningside student volunteers will receive their agency assignments at an 8 a.m. breakfast orientation meeting in Eppley Auditorium. For the rest of the morning, students will perform a variety of service work – cleaning, painting, delivering Meals on Wheels, moving files, reading to elementary school students, yard cleanup – for agencies that include Ronald McDonald House, Siouxland Aging Services, the City of South Sioux City, Woodbury County Conservation Board and Siouxland Habitat for Humanity.
Rebecca Anderson, a Morningside junior from Lawton, Iowa, is coordinating the service project with assistance from a student committee that includes Kelsey Uherka of Stanton, Iowa; Krystal Shearer of Emerson, Iowa; Miriam Pfahler of Pierre, S.D.; Jessica Rix of Sioux Rapids, Iowa; Sarah Culp of Newell, Iowa; and Kylie Helmink of Fairbury, Neb.

"After days of narrowing my search, I'm so happy that I chose this card. They turned out wonderful and the opportunity to add additional pictures to the back allowed me to share more memories with my family and friends! I love them!"
"I loved our christmas card this year! This card mixes modern with a vintage flair. I added the vintage setting to our photographs. The quality of the paper & printing was exceptional! I went with a different company last year & was not happy with the quality of the print. Tiny prints did a superb job! Thanks!"
"Wonderful design (loved the extra photo on the back), excellent paper and brilliant modification to manage the 'square envelope = more postage' dilemma! I ordered late on Thursday night, selected expedited shipping (not one day) with the expectation that I would receive the cards on Thursday of next week... Instead they came on Tuesday! I'm getting compliments from everyone on our card, and because the photo on the back displays the scoreboard from UCLA's dominating win over crosstown rival, USC, people are keeping this card as a souvenir."
"We are never disappointed with the quality from tiny prints. It was easy to upload pictures and loved the fact that the modified square envelopes were not extra."
"I selected this card for the beautiful Christian message. That's important to me as so many forget the reason we celebrate Christmas. The quality of the paper really impressed me, they are thick and nice to hold. I also liked the capability of changing the backside color and adding more photos to the back. I will definitely use Tiny Prints again!"

Amazing style, but different material I had my first pair of these a year ago and they were my absolute favorite pants. Then there was a little accident and they ripped, so I went online to see if you still carried them. I was very surprised to find that I could order them. When I got them, I was disappointed that they were exactly the same style but totally different material. I liked the other material much more (they were of smooth, shiny/glassy material compared to the thick, rough, hot one I got that causes itchiness). I wish you would return the original ones to the stores (or at least online)! January 5, 2014
super hot I love these rocks! They are super comfortable and the pockets in back and front perfect with the right amount of bling. My husband loves the view from the back. I definitely recommend these. September 15, 2012

Venice was the BEST of all
September 30, 2011
The Luna Hotel Baglioni in Venice reports being the oldest hotel in one of the most romantic cities in the world dating back to the 12th century. Luna Hotel Baglioni can be found right beside San Marco Square and the Basilica, the location is excellent. From the time you're dropped off on the front steps by private boat to the reception area and are greeted by the wonderful staff, you know you're in Venice.
The Luna was decorated in a variety of colors with lots of antiques and the pictures on the walls throughout the hotel gave you the real sense of Venice. We viewed several of the rooms from the Junior Suites to the Presidential suite. All the rooms are decorated in Italian marble and the bathrooms featured walk-in closets, flat screen TVs in the bedrooms, and a sitting area where guests can relax. The junior suites look out onto side streets or small internal courtyards or Venice's rooftops. Only a few have views of St. Marks and the island of San Giorgio.
The different types of Suites offered are Deluxe, Lagoon View and Grand Lagoon View. The Presidential Suite, also known as the Giorgione, is split into two levels with antique furniture from the 18th century that is simply amazing! The second level is the bedroom with a beautiful Italian marble bathroom, Jacuzzi bathtub and a walk in closet, two plasma screen TVs. The best feature of this room is a large wooden terrace overlooking the Lagoon, which offers a breathtaking view of St Mark's and is ideal for romantic candlelight dinners during the summer months.
There are two restaurants at the Luna Hotel. The Canova Restaurant is designed to hold up to 80 guests in a very sophisticated decor set against the San Marco lagoon. The menu is based on a selection of local foods and traditional specialties along with a very wide selection of fine wines.
The largest room is the "Salon Marco Polo", it can accommodate up to 170 people and it is the ideal setting for special events: private dinners, wedding parties and cocktails. A buffet breakfast is served every morning in this room.
Venice was the BEST of all. From St Mark's Square to the gondolas rowing through the dark waters and the beautiful sunset on the water's edge, I was in heaven and Venice captured my heart.

Carlos Mencia Tickets and Event Dates
Show Details
Carlos Mencia, superstar/stand-up comedian, is undoubtedly one of today's most lauded entertainers and feared comics. Whether it is man-on-the-street interviews, studio comedy, commercial parodies, or nationwide sold-out tours, Mencia demonstrates an extraordinary ability to connect with a diverse audience.
Mencia was born in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, the 17th of 18 children. His parents sent him to the United States when he was about three months old, where he was raised in Maravilla Projects in Los Angeles, California by his aunt and uncle. In his early teens, Mencia moved back to Honduras because his family wanted him to avoid the destructive gang culture of East Los Angeles. When Mencia later returned to Los Angeles, he showed such educational prowess that he was immediately promoted to the tenth grade. Soon after, he successfully graduated from Garfield High School.
Mencia began his career doing stand-up on amateur night at the comedy club, Laugh Factory. He later showcased at The Comedy Store and became a regular, performing nightly. After he found success on the L.A comedy circuit, Mencia was named "International Comedy Grand Champion" from Buscando Estrellas (the Latino version of Star Search). This led to appearances on "In Living Color," "The Arsenio Hall Show," "Moesha" and "An Evening at the Improv." In 1994, he hosted the HBO comedy series "Loco Slam" and in 1998 he hosted "Funny is Funny!" on Galavision. Mencia released a comedy album in 2000 called "Take a Joke, America" that showcased his brand of confrontational humor.
Mencia continued his journey up the comedy ladder by headlining "The Three Amigos" tour with Freddy Soto and Pablo Francisco in 2002, which sold out in record time around the United States. He was also featured in the independent films, "Outta Time" and "29 Palms" and starred in guest spots on "The Shield" and "The Bernie Mac Show," among others. In 2002, he received a CableACE Award nomination for Best Stand-Up Comedy Special for his HBO special. That same year, Mencia was featured on "Comedy Central Presents." Mencia remained busy and after the success of his solo dvd, "Carlos Mencia: Not For The Easily Offended," "Mind of Mencia" went into development. The show was an instant hit and after the first season, Comedy Central signed Mencia back for his own original stand-up special, "Carlos Mencia: No Strings Attached." The special was the first Comedy Central Stand-up Special DVD to achieve Platinum sales status.
"Mind of Mencia" debuted on Comedy Central in early 2005. It became one of the strongest shows in the network's history, averaging about 1.5 million total viewers. "Mind of Mencia" was executive produced by Carlos Mencia and Robert Morton ("Late Night with David Letterman").
In the summer of 2007, Mencia starred opposite Ben Stiller and Michelle Monaghan in the Farrelly Brothers' hit feature film, THE HEARTBREAK KID (DreamWorks). In the fall of that year Mencia headlined a nationwide comedy tour titled "Carlos Mencia Live Presented by Bud Light." The highly anticipated tour brought Mencia face-to-face with his fans from September 2007 through December 2007. Shortly thereafter, Mencia taped a new comedy special for Comedy Central, "Carlos Mencia: Performance Enhanced," that aired in May 2008.
In July 2008, Mencia began his tour, "At Close Range" at Red Rock Amphitheatre in Colorado. The tour was sponsored by Bud Light and co-promoted by Icon Entertainment and Live Nation. Larger than all of his previous tours, Mencia performed in 80 cities across the country. In the summer of 2009, he kicked off a new nationwide comedy tour entitled "The Administration of Laughter" which currently brings him to excited audiences all around the country.
Since 2007, every holiday season Mencia has embarked on a USO Tour to the Persian Gulf to entertain the troops serving overseas. For his 2008 trip, Mencia visited Kuwait to host "Operation MySpace," an exclusive concert for American Troops in the Middle East alongside Jessica Simpson and The Pussycat Dolls. The special aired on FX in April 2008. Mencia's 2009 USO tour had stops in Turkey, Kirkuk, Baghdad, Qatar, Afghanistan, and many other countries.
Mencia filmed the FOX Searchlight comedy OUR FAMILY WEDDING in which he stars alongside America Ferrara and Forrest Whitaker. The film was released to theatres nationwide on March 12th, 2010. As evident by his many projects, Mencia's career is continually flourishing, making him one of Hollywood's most sought after talents to date!
Carlos Mencia presently lives in Los Angeles with his wife and their son.

AUSTIN, TX -- Texas A&M won its 10th consecutive match with a 3-1 victory over North Carolina State in the NCAA Division I Women's Volleyball Championship first round. The Aggies posted a 21-25, 25-12, 25-23, 25-20 decision over the Wolfpack at Gregory Gym.
The Aggies, who improved to 25-5 on the year, return to action on Friday at 7 p.m. when they will play either No. 3 Texas or Colgate at Gregory Gym.
Lindsey Miller spearheaded the Aggies' attack on the afternoon with 17 kills, a .469 hitting percentage and seven blocks. Miller's seven blocks tied a season-high. Allie Sawatzky notched six kills, a .545 hitting percentage, 40 assists and five digs. Alisia Kastmo ended the match with 12 kills, a .269 hitting percentage, six digs and three blocks.
Tori Mellinger registered seven kills and 12 digs. Her 12 digs boosted her career tally to 1,474 passing two-time All-American and three-time Olympian Stacy Sykora (1,471 – 1995-98) for second place on A&M's all-time list.
The Wolfpack won the opening set 25-21. The squads played on an even keel through the first 30 points, tied 15-15 before NC State went on a 4-1 run to take a 19-16 advantage. Texas A&M was eventually able to whittle the lead down to 20-19, but the Aggies were unable to reclaim the lead the remainder of the set. A&M's biggest lead of the set was two points on four different occasions, including 11-9 on the latest occasion.
After getting out-hit .242-.368 in the opening set, the Aggies responded to hold a .362-.170 edge in hitting percentage for the last three sets.
The Aggies came swarming back in the second set, earning the 25-12 decision. After going without a block in the first set, Texas A&M tallied seven in the second, including a solo and five assists by Miller. The set was tied at 4-4 before the Aggies created separation with a 9-2 run, staking claim to a 13-6 edge. North Carolina State could draw no closer than six points, and the Texas A&M lead first ballooned to 13 points at 22-9.
In the third set, Texas A&M gained the momentum following a Wolfpack service error and three consecutive kills by Kastmo to break a 4-4 tie and grab a 9-5 edge.
North Carolina State worked back into the third set to tie it at 11-11 but couldn't wrestle the lead from the Aggies. Three kills apiece by Miller and Shelby Sullivan sparked a 10-5 run for the Maroon and White as they claimed a 21-16 lead. The Wolfpack would not go away quietly and knotted the game at 22-22 with a block by Megan Cyr. Miller gave A&M the edge with a kill, and an attack error by NC State's Brie Merriwether gave A&M breathing room at 24-22. Dariyan Hopper cut the lead to one with a kill, but Sullivan's attack found the floor for the set-clinching point and the 25-23 decision.
The fourth set was tightly contested through the first two-thirds of action with the score tied 11 times, including the last time at 16-16. A kill by Mellinger, two kills by Kastmo and a service ace by Mellinger gave A&M a 20-17 edge, and the Aggies would coast to the five-point decision capped off by a service ace by Heather Reynolds for match point.
The loss ended North Carolina State's season with a 22-10 mark.
The Aggies improved to 24-19 all-time at the NCAA Championship, including a 22-15 mark under head coach Laurie Corbelli.

Nicole Kidman just turned 45, but there was no middle-aged woman celebration for her. Keith Urban made sure of that. It was dinner and a show, but dinner and a show the way Urban does it. Since they are in Sydney right now, Urban, Kidman and Kidman's parents went first to the Apollo in Potts Point. It calls itself an Australian Greek restaurant and has things like kalaboki salad mung beans yoghurt sesame, kritharaki pasta braised oxtail tomato and skordalia, pig's tail salad walnuts sorrel currants pomegranate farro and taramasalata mullet roe dip. (All things that tend to scream, "You're not in Nashville anymore!") Then after that dining experience, they headed off to Lady Gaga's Sydney concert. There's no word on whether they had monster pit passes or not. But speaking from experience, if you are trying to forget that you are 45, being up against the stage -- and elbow to elbow with screaming fans -- definitely does the trick.

Reminiscent of the traditional hymn that so many of us are familiar with, this modern hymn-like song is as strong in doctrine as it is in commerciality. "Just one drop can make us clean ... It has triumphed over darkness, bringing healing, bringing freedom, bringing peace. ... And whosoever calls upon this name ...will rise up to their feet forever changed, singing Hallelujah!"

FlexJobs lists top work-from-home firms
Last Updated: 15:55 January 24, 2014
FlexJobs has released a list of the top 100 companies to watch for work-from-home opportunities in 2014. FlexJobs workers researched more than 25,000 companies to come up with the list, according to a press statement. They looked at company databases and their job-posting histories to come up with the ranking.
Job seekers can use the list to help weed out scams and advertising commonly found on online job-listing boards, said Sara Sutton Fell, FlexJobs' chief executive.
Xerox Corp. (Nasdaq: XRX), was followed by UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH), Dell Inc., Aetna Inc. (NYSE: AET), and American Express (NYSE: AXP) as top companies across the United States that offer work-from-home opportunities. The complete list can be found on the company's website, www.flexjobs.com.
FlexJobs charges job-seekers a monthly subscription fee of $14.95 to look at jobs posted on the website. Three-month use options and one-year options are available. While the privately held company does not disclose revenues it has grown to 37 employees from its initial 20, said Chelsea Gladden, a company spokeswoman.
FlexJobs Corp.'s employees all work from home, Gladden said. Fell started the company in Boulder in 2009.

CSE's latest book in its Right to Clean Air Campaign series. We have more roads and flyovers than ever before to address our transportation worries.

There I was, zipping down bustling Ahmedabad. The bus stopped at a station, designed so the doors of the bus and the station open simultaneously to let passengers out and in. People were walking to the station, buying tickets and waiting. A notice flashed when the next bus would arrive. Each bus has a GPS device that transmits its movements to a spiffy control room inside the city corporation. You know when the next bus will come. It will be on time.

CSE organised a roundtable discussion on "Transport and climate: building an agenda for action" along with the Global Partnership on Sustainable, Low Carbon Transport in New Delhi on November 18, 2009. This brought together experts, policy makers, and civil society groups to discuss the climate imperatives of the transportation sector.
This study provides detailed analysis of walking conditions in Indian cities. The analysis indicates that walkability is overlooked and undervalued in transport planning, and that improved walkability is justified for equity and efficiency sake.
It provides specific recommendations for improving walking conditions to address a variety of planning objectives.

I have hope that something very special is happening in our world and I would like the Christian tradition to be part of that positive, evolutionary change. But I believe there are things that progressive leaders, progressive teachers and progressive Churches, have to do immediately, if that we are going to have a chance to make it work.
read moreProgressive Christianity has been seriously hampered by at least two illusions.
One is that the triumph of progressive ideas is pretty much inevitable. The other is that progressive ideas are inherently persuasively. Neither is true. The progressive Christian witness will not triumph inevitably triumph or under its own power. Convictions prevail when they are part of social movements. Progressive ideas may be intrinsically credible, but they are actually believed only when they are effectively stated and lived, and embedded in alliances of people who act together with informed intentionality.
read morePart 2 of the Presentation given by Val Webb at the Common Dreams 2, Melbourne Australia. In progressive religious thinking, old images of God have been retired and new metaphors for the Divine within the universe, whether Energy, Presence, Spirit, Sacred, Ground of Being, Life, have become more authentic for a scientific world. Yet, in a multi-faith world, we cannot speak of the Sacred infusing the universe without recognizing It as that sought and described in all religions. How do we engage this Divine within the world, or the Divine engage us, if at all, in a multi-faith world? How do human beings step out with the Sacred in everyday life across countries, cultures, and religious persuasions?

The Sun In My Belly, introduces young readers to the Buddhist idea of interbeing that everything is connected. It is also the story of a valuable friendship and the joys of forgiveness.
In Brenda Peterson's unusual memoir, fundamentalism meets deep ecology. The author's childhood in the high Sierra with her forest ranger father led her to embrace the entire natural world, while her Southern Baptist relatives prepared eagerly and busily to leave this world. Peterson survived fierce "sword drill" competitions demanding total recall of the Scriptures and awkward dinner table questions ("Will Rapture take the cat, too?") only to find that environmentalists with prophecies of doom can also be Endtimers. Peterson paints such a hilarious, loving portrait of each world that the reader, too, may want to be Left Behind. Her clever take on the "Left Behind" phenomenon in the book's title isn't just a gentle refutation of an escapist religious prophecy. It's an appeal for something more inclusive than the idea that true believers will one day be swept up midair and whisked off to an eternal paradise, leaving the rest of us to fend for ourselves.

read moreI believe that the current state of traditional western Christianity may be comparable to the state of first century Judaism (as it is depicted in the Gospels). And now, as then, critique, deconstruction, and renovation are needed. Jesus' continuity and discontinuity within his faith tradition, his deconstruction for the purpose of reconstruction, are paradigmatic for emerging, progressive Christianity.

Because . . . but here the non-sequitur called "to have and have not" throws us off the track. The Jesus Seminar scholars suggest that "Luke presumably wants the reader to know that those who grasp at the initial stages of faith will be given more to understand as they mature" (The Five Gospels p. 307).
read moreIn the preparation required to write my new book on eternal life, I soon discovered that this subject raised all of the contemporary theological issues that threaten to destroy Christianity as we have known it. It was clear that I would have to turn the traditional religious approach around. I had to read the modern critics for whom the religious concepts of the past make no sense. I also had to come to a new understanding of what life itself means. Life after death cannot possibly be contemplated until one understands the wondrous and even mysterious dimensions of life before death.

Biography (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
Tobias Jonathan Ansell Wolff was born June 19, 1945, in Birmingham, Alabama, to Rosemary Loftus and Arthur Saunders "Duke" Wolff. His older brother, Geoffrey, also became a writer of fiction and memoirs. When Wolff was four years old, his parents separated; he lived with Rosemary while his brother stayed with their father. In 1955, Wolff and his mother moved to Seattle, where she remarried. The stressful period of this marriage is described in Wolff's 1989 memoir, This Boy's Life. Wolff managed to escape to a boarding school in Pennsylvania, from which he was expelled in 1963. Shortly afterward, he entered the armed services and served in Vietnam from 1964 to 1968. A few years after his military service, he attended Oxford University in England, earning a B.A. and M.A. in English language and literature. In 1975, he married Catherine Dolores Spohn. Further study took him to Stanford University, where he was a Wallace Stegner fellow in creative writing and earned an M.A. in English in 1978.
Following graduation from Stanford, Wolff began teaching at colleges and universities, including Goddard College in Plainfield, Vermont (1978); Arizona State University (1979); Syracuse University in New York (1980-1997); and, beginning in 1998, at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. Throughout his teaching career, he has published dozens of...

Biography (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
Given the emphasis in Tobias Wolff's writing on lies and the construction of identity, it is fitting that his literary reputation rests on both fiction and memoir. His fiction often draws from his life, and his memoirs admittedly contain some subjective recreations of the truth. A theme of self-doubt and, at times, self-blame, runs through much of Wolff's writing; his descriptions of the many ways people disappoint one another contain elements of apology but also of forgiveness. Although his work is never overtly religious, some stories include confessions of sin and an expressed desire to reform and to make amends. Others, however, are portraits of people struggling with a half-realized sense of inadequacy, which often takes the form of coldness or hostility toward others. Wolff's chiding of human failure includes sympathy and rarely becomes simply satire.
Biography (Critical Survey of Short Fiction, Second Revised Edition)
Readers are lucky to have two prime sources dealing with Tobias Jonathan Ansell Wolff's parents and Wolff's early life: Wolff's own memoir and a recollection of his father entitled The Duke of Deception: Memories of My Father (1979), written by Wolff's older brother, the novelist Geoffrey Wolff. Together, these works portray a remarkable family, though Rosemary Loftus Wolff, Wolff's mother, wryly observed that, if she had known so much was going to be told, she might have watched herself more closely.
The one who bore watching, however, was Wolff's inventive father, a genial Gatsby-like figure who, in pursuit of the good life, forged checks, credentials, and his own identity. He began as Arthur Samuels Wolff, a Jewish doctor's son and boarding-school expellee, but later emerged as Arthur Saunders Wolff, an Episcopalian and Yale University graduate. A still later reincarnation was as Saunders Ansell-Wolff III. On the basis of forged credentials, he became an aeronautical engineer and rose to occupy an executive suite. During his time, however, he also occupied a number of jail cells. Still, he showed remarkable creativity in his fabrications, so perhaps it is not surprising that both his sons became writers of fiction. Family life with him was something of a roller coaster, exciting but with many ups and downs. Eventually, this instability led to the family's breakup in 1951: Twelve-year-old Geoffrey remained with the father, while...

Biography (Cyclopedia of World Authors, Fourth Revised Edition)
Tobias Jonathan Ansell Wolff is one of the most highly respected writers of short fiction to have achieved prominence in the 1980's. He was born in Birmingham, Alabama, on June 19, 1945, the son of Arthur and Rosemary (Loftus) Wolff, and grew up in the state of Washington, where he and his mother had moved some six years after his parents' divorce in 1951. Wolff left his home in rural Washington to attend preparatory school at the Hill School in Pennsylvania but failed to graduate from that institution. After enlisting in the U.S. Army, Special Forces, serving from 1964 to 1968, during which time he served in Vietnam, Wolff earned a bachelor's degree from Oxford University in 1972 and a master's degree from Oxford in 1975. He spent the 1975-1976 academic year at Stanford University, having won a Wallace Stegner Fellowship in creative writing. He earned a master's degree from Stanford in 1978, the same year in which he received his first National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship. Like many other contemporary writers, Wolff has supported himself by teaching. He has served on the faculties of Stanford University, Goddard College, Arizona State University, and Syracuse University and has been a reporter for The Washington Post. Wolff published his first collection of stories, In the Garden of the North American Martyrs, in 1981. The book received exceptional reviews, and the following year it earned for Wolff the St. Lawrence Award for Fiction. In the stories' range of characters, situations, and literary techniques, this collection revealed Wolff to be a writer not merely of promise but of manifest achievement as well.
Wolff's second book, the novella The Barracks Thief, confirmed his narrative gifts. Originally a novel-length manuscript, it was subjected to intense revision that eliminated inessential characters as well as unnecessary passages of exposition and that introduced greater complexity of narrative technique—including Wolff's startling yet successful shifts from third-person to first-person points of view. Widely admired by reviewers, The Barracks Thief won the PEN/Faulkner Award in 1985 as the best work of fiction published during the preceding year. The year 1985 also saw the publication of Wolff's second collection of stories, Back in the World. Frequently set in either California or the Pacific Northwest, all the stories in this volume use third-person points of view that tend to distance the reader from the characters. Although this collection did not generate as enthusiastic a response from reviewers as did Wolff's first two books, it continued to develop a number of his...

from those pictures, it still looks like it's a little under the chin. i was told when i was a kid to go between the nose and chin but felt that was too long. i've been doing it under my chin ever since. but the only picture that looked up to his chest was brett hull and he seems to use short and flexy sticks. everyone else looks right at their throat or chin. or am i just looking at the pics wrong?
I've heard that chin on skates thing too... I've always done chin/mouth with no skates... Has always worked for me... Honestly it's preference. but for kids sake, I'd say chin/mouth no skates...
Bobby Ryan disagrees with this website.
It just depends on your feel. Willie Mitchell uses a large stick on the ice, I doubt his is under his chin.
Oscar Moller uses a stick that is taller then him.
It's been a common observance that my stick has been longer than most, but it works because I know how to handle it.
I generally go just under the chin (with skates of course).
The "problem" is that for several of my sticks, the blade length can vary by up to 1 or 2 inches, so the chin length will make for different length sticks. ???
For an aluminum shaft and a composite shaft, I had to put in new inserts at the top when certain mfr's stick blades got a bit longer (I mean shorter).
short version: just under the chin works fine for me...
i cut mine at my top lip when im off skates, generally goes a little below my chin with skates on

DescriptionRed Rock Canyon Open Space is a 787-acre parkland owned by the Colorado Springs Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services Department. The park opened at the end of October, 2004. The park, composed of three distinct drainages, nestles against the Front Range south of the Garden of the Gods and US 24. Getting ThereRed Red Canyon Open Space is south of the Garden of the Gods and US 24. Find the trailhead by turning south from US 24 at the only turnoff between 30th Street and the first Manitou Springs exit. Drive a block south and park in the designated lot. RegulationsThis park is city-owned. Thus, there are specific rules and regulations that must be followed. All the rules from general technical climbing rules from Garden of the Gods apply here. Each calendar year, you are obliged to fill out a free permit at the Garden of the Gods Visitor Center located at 1805 N 30th Street. Top RopingPlease consider toproping through your own gear rather than directly through the rappel rings. The sandstone in the area and the wear it creates on the rings shorten their lives and perhaps yours if this is done too much. Mountain BikingNote, there is mountain biking in this park. There is even a mini-terrain park (helmets required) for those inclined. Biking can potentially add to the enjoyment of your day or even those in your family here. DogsDogs are allowed at the park. There are places in the park where dogs may go leashless; however, much of the park requires leashes.

As recovery for Hurricane Sandy gets underway, countless New Yorkers who wonder if they will recoup any losses should deal with filing insurance claims. NY1's Susan Jhun filed the following NY1 For You report.
The damage from Sandy is devastating and widespread and everyone from homeowners to small business owners are wondering if their insurance will cover it.
"Never saw something like this in my life," says a New Yorker. "I never thought this storm would bring destruction like this."
When all is said and done, some estimates predict Hurricane Sandy will have caused tens of billions of dollars in personal property damage.
"This is probably going to be a top-10 insured disaster," says Jeanne Salvatore of the Insurance Information Institute.
The primary concern for homeowners is flood and wind damage and many wonder what is covered under home insurance versus Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
"Wind damage is going to be covered under your home or renter's insurance policy but you're going to need to have flood insurance to be covered for flooding," says Salvatore.
Those who were displaced from their homes due to physical damage to the residence, not including power outages, are covered under most standard home and renter's insurance policies for what is called "The Cost of Additional Living Expenses."
Then there is all the other damage — trees fallen on houses, cars smashed into property, fires. This damage, regardless of whether it originated on one's property, will be covered by home or renter's insurance if one's property was damaged.
"Trees or falling objects those are all covered under standard homeowner's policies," says Jeanne Salvatore of the Insurance Information Institute.
For small businesses, depending on the type of coverage, there is business interruption insurance, which compensates a business owner for income lost following a disaster.
The first thing everyone should do, from individuals or business owners, is call the insurance company and let them know the extent of the damage. Then they should document their losses, take pictures and make lists.
Most importantly, they need to keep track of everything. They should make a log and write down all the names and numbers of everyone they deal with.

Philosophical Difference
I found the following links, one from Marketwatch about too many ETFs that I think is a retread of an older article and another one from ETF Investor questioning the utility of currency ETFs. Weigh all of these issues for yourself. Don't listen to me or someone else, you will know if the various new products are right for you or nöt (he he different keyboard!).
I stumbled across a press release on Yahoo Finance from a stock picking site that said ETFs would now be included in its research and in its model portfolio selections.
I tried to sign up for the free trial to see what their reports are like but despite being free they wanted my credit card number, I passed.
As I read the press release I had a general thought about picking ETFs that is bigger than whatever this site may be looking to do.
"What ETF would you buy right now" is the mindset of too many people, IMO. This leads to chasing returns and makes all of the naysayers of sector funds exactly right when they caution about how dangerous they can be.
In a way, trying to game a single country or a sector for a couple of weeks in anticipation of an event can be more difficult than gaming a stock. I'll use an example that is completely made up. Let's say an investor thinks that Conoco Philips' earnings will lift the entire energy sector so he buys the Energy Sector SPDR (XLE) in which COP is the third largest holding. Let's say the investor is exactly right about COP and most of the sector but at the same time that COP is making its news Exxon Mobil (XOM) has some sort of hideous scandal that knocks the stock down 15%. Since XOM is the largest holding in XLE, at 16%, the trade as implemented fails. Reasonably speaking, the analysis in the example was good but it is tough to game a scandal.
The long-term holder is no better off of course but the mindset of the event trader and the long-termer are different.
For anyone new, I think of ETFs as one of several tools available to build a diversified portfolio. As an investor constructs his portfolio there are certain parts of the market that will be captured. Some parts are best captured with a stock or ETF or fund or maybe something else. There is nothing that says you have to all ETFs. For your energy exposure (sticking with the example of above) you should buy whatever you think best captures the sector. For someone that owns a bunch of OEF the best energy hold could be an individual stock? The point is not to limit your thinking.

I have found it rewarding to pay attention to what Prof. Jeremy Siegel has to say and, therefore, would like to find out more about the new Wisdom Tree ETF's he and Michael Steinhardt (another heavyweight worth listening to) and Jonathan Steinberg recently launched. I understand they are based on Jeremy's work refining and limiting indexing to companies paying dividends and with a history of increasing such payouts. I notice some of the ETF's have a pretty healthy yield. Could you look into this, Roger, and perhaps it would be appropriate to get a discussion going on same. Thanks.

FWIW. I know of a private asset mgmt firm that broke off from a small cap dominated asset mgmt firm in the early 90's. The new crew saw the end of the small cap rally and believed in the research of screening large cap companies with increasing dividends. That screen has been around for a while. Problem is that different criteria have different cycles. BUT, trends do last and have "trajectory" power. Roger, I too, can't stand the next new etf web site that lists ten worse and ten highest gainers in the last 10 days. Just noise and distraction. What would interest me are intermediate bets that last 6 months to three years. One can have a core of diversified holdings and try to weight some sectors greater than cap would call for. Roger, FOR MY HEAD, i encourage to keep preaching the no big bets, cool and steady, and avoid the big downside chunk. It's the latter that we differ the most. My tolerance for a loss is now single digits. Among retired bloggees, here, I wonder what the degree of tolerance for others is and then what their preference is for how to manage that degree of an annual drawdown(%bonds,%cash, %hard assets,% shorts/options/stategic hedging,or timing. Your followers, if I might include myself, have higher than average investment intelligence.

Use the rally to sell all but your energy and precious metals positions. Move a significant portion of your cash to FXE.
This is a long way from over. And even if not for WW3 in the middle east, the Fed has sold you out for a huge correction in RE. How hard do you want to be hammered on the downside, chasing the x% possible upside.
Same ol' from me.
We've topped in the first leg up in the secular bear reversal rally, there will be another leg down, then one more up and then a final leg down in the secular Bear of 2000 to 2010. Not astrology but historical best estimates. Ignore at your peril. Like I need to post 1000's of dollars of research for free.
Sold GS after a huge nonsense pop and bot more gold. Bought a HUGE amount of puts on the XHB again after the minor reversal. Have a huge amount of dry powder waiting for more weakness on the XHB and their counterparts. WCI, PHM, MTG, will be bankrupt. Nat Gas just getting started.
Run with the Lemmings whilst the holographic carrot deceives. We will see the next historic nuclear explosion in Iran in the form of bunker busters.
The race is insane. How many air bursts do you think there were before we finally decided we had perfected the A and H bomb? And then we went to underground.
I might be off a couple, but my search shows TWO actual use bombs over Japan, and 330 test blasts in the air, all more powerful than the Japan bombs. 330+!. Wouldn't you think that after the next 100 air bursts we would have "figured it out"? But no, we are a savage race and if not for environmental groups there would have been a lot more than 330 air bursts. We are insane, and anyone who invests otherwise, is... maybe normal.

The guy in past posts who suggested I "Off Myself for voting Bush" is in error. Well hs IS a Dufus!!!
Then how can I vote otherwise?
This is a "whole 'nother can of worms". Us bailing on the dollar after the crash, going to the Amero, merging the peso and Canadian dollar into one.
If you don't know the treaty I'm referring to, you better get ya head out of ya arse. This country is going to hell in less than a handbasket, due to George Bush. Fast. By 2010.
I don't think it matters who claims president, they seem powerless and clueless. No reason to believe the next is better than the last. It's a real sad state of affairs!
I better stop before I get ire.

OT Ebay Failure, Total IMHO. Total utter dismal failure.
Used them in the past, mixed results. 100+ OK transactions, one total rip off, stole my money.
Tried to contact them (EBay) by web or phone. Guess what... After an hour, I had neither.
Finally got someone who would send an annual report, but had no other info.
This company is outrageous!!!! I'm gonna short this to oblivion.
And then some more.
Let anyone else contact customer service with any luck. What a friggin' joke. EBay is toast IMHO. - 8:14 PM

About EBAY, we have had over 1000 transaction both selling and buying. A good little side business. Be an honest seller and use delivery confirmation and insurance. On buying always buy using a credit card through PayPal. In general always keep you PayPal account empty. We have gotten some great timeshares a little southeast of Roger(Phoenix). Often bid with 20 and 10 seconds to go. As always buyer beware and know how to play the game correct. My 2 cents!

Deutsche Bank Exec Beaten By LAPD Allegedly Copped to Previous Bath Salts Use
Remember Brian Mulligan? He's the Deutsche Bank executive who filed a $50 million claim with the city of Los Angeles after suffering a broken shoulder blade and 15 nasal fractures in a run-in with LAPD in May.
The details of the case have been hard to figure from the start. Mr. Mulligan said cops kidnapped him to a cheap hotel and threatened to kill him if he left the premises, then beat him badly when they found he'd escaped. The police said Mr. Mulligan admitted to using marijuana and bath salts, then assumed a karate stance and charged officers.
Well, the details are still hard to figure, but The Los Angeles Times has a story that lends some credibility to the LAPD's claims. According to The Times, Mr. Mulligan walked into a police department headquarters in Glendale, Calif., and asked for help dealing with his substance use: Read More

A running back for the Chicago Bears, Walter Payton was one of the National Football League's most productive players. During his 13-year football career, he set numerous records, and in 1993 was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In 1999, Walter passed away from a rare form of bile duct cancer. Dr. Oz talks to Walter's wife, Connie, about Walter's battle, the work of the Walter and Connie Payton Foundation and the importance of organ donation.
Shortly after he was diagnosed with primary sclerosing cholangitis, a rare liver disease, Walter was put on the liver transplant list. Connie says Walter spent the last months of his life speaking out in support of organ transplants and encouraging donations. "I think it would have been easy for most people to just say, 'Forget it, I'm going to give up,'" Connie says. "Especially, the type that Walter had—he had a very aggressive cancer and it just kind of took over right away—but he fought it with every ounce of energy he had in him." Connie says Walter's legacy lives on through their charity foundation, the Walter and Connie Payton Foundation. The foundation is dedicated to helping neglected, abused and underprivileged children; every Christmas, the foundation collects toys and gifts to distribute to needy children. Additionally, Walter and Connie's daughter, Brittney, founded Youth for Life: Remembering Walter Payton, a nonprofit campaign committed to educating teens about the importance of organ donation. |
