Out of all the different specialty items that a fly fisherman incorporates in their beloved pastime the most expensive and probably the most likely to become damaged would have be the fly rod. Made from high modulus graphite, these intricately balanced and finely tuned pieces of equipment don't take well to the elements, rough play or travel.
Fly rods need to be protected when not in use to ensure their long life and usefulness in the river. Some consumers spend in excess of thousands of dollars on a quality fly rod, while other spend just a few hundred. In either case, does it not make sense to protect your investment with a simple rod case or tube?
|A good fly rod case will protect your rod to and from the river and throughout the nonfishing season.
In most instances rod cases are generally forgotten about by the average fly angler until a serious need arises for one like an out of town trip. Worse yet, these fishing cases due to their long size and bulkiness get packed away in basements making them difficult to find when you need them. As a result, desperate anglers try and rig existing luggage to accommodate these rods, only to find that their gear arrived cracked, bend or broken at their intended destination.
In general rod cases and tubes come in a few different designs and styles. The first type is your basic long, hard-cased rod tube. These types of tubes are best suited for transporting your rod long distances such as on a plane or the back of a truck. The second type of rod case is a tube-cover with a tough fabric that forms a reel cover. These cases allow a broken-down rod to be slipped into the case and secured without the removal of the fly reel. The last type of rod case is the rod sock. Like the rod tube this type of case requires the reel to be removed before storing the rod. Unlike the other two cases this type of protective covering really does not do much in the way of protecting your rod. It simply covers the rod and keeps it dirt and debris free.
Standard Rod Tubes
The rod tube is a basic protective case for your fly rod that is generally intended for everyday use to and from the river. These cases have been designed specifically for long terms storage purposes like the long winter or for travel abroad.
These cases are specifically good for packing away rods for winter or for periods when do not think you will be able to get out on the water for a while. Giving your rod a quick cleaning and packing it away softly will have rod coming out of the tube looking like new in the spring.
Having a fly rod travel with you to a destination is never a safe venture especially when going by airplane. Conveyer belts, luggage slides and rough air conditions can severely damage your precious equipment so having a protective case to combat the rigors is a good idea. Rod tubes for travel should have padding at the tops and bottom and space eaters involved so that rods do not bang around inside the tube.
Another good idea is to have a locking mechanism attached to the top of the tube you are interested in so that you can place a pad-lock or similar device to keep unwanted intruders out. If you are looking into purchasing a rod tube then a good idea is to find one that is either made out of heavy duty PVC type plastic or, better yet, lightweight aluminum or some type of metal composite. These cases need to able to take serious abuse so choosing a tube that skimps on the materials used for the cases construction will only find you back in the stores in a few years searching for another. Additional features are listed below that make will set a quality rod tube apart from all others. Rod Tube Features
- Hard PVC or metal shell
- Soft and padded internal compartment plus caps
- Screw on cap with D rings for locking
- Identification Tag
- Adjustable shoulder strap and web handle
Rod/Reel Cases
Rod and reel combo cases are a great idea for the fly angler who likes to fish a few different times in a week or venture out to multiple stretches of river in one afternoon. These cases are designed in such a way that anglers can simply break down their rods at the ferrules and slide the ferrule ends down the rod tube to stow the rod away safely. This simplistic design saves anglers a tremendous amount of time by not having to attach reels and flies repeatedly. Another key feature of these combo cases is that since they are meant to have rods broken down in half, they are smaller in length than your traditional rod tube.
This small size makes them great for small trips and tight spaces in the back of your car. If you are looking to purchase a rod, reel, and case combo try and buy a case that has more than one rod well as reel holder. It is a great idea to have multiple rods rigged and waiting to go just see what the conditions are and choose the best set-up. For the best possible rod and reel combo case look for one that incorporates as many of the features listed below as possible.
Rod and Reel Combinations
- Rugged 450 denier fabric cover over hard PVC shell
- Soft and padded reel case section
- Two zipper side pockets for additional storage of reels, spools, fly boxes
- One mesh panel pocket
- Adjustable shoulder strap and web handle
- 2 D-rings for attachment to back pack
- Multiple wells for more than one rod storage
- Heavy-duty metal zippers
Rod Socks
Rod socks are almost exactly what the name implies, just a sheath of fabric to place your fly rod into. The rod sock is normally used in conjunction with rod tubes to further protect rods from damage. A quality rod sock will have multiple compartments so that the angler can store each fly rod section by itself.
Placing all the rod pieces together in one large compartment would allow for the rod components to rub together either scratching or blemishing the rods finish. Additionally rod sock should incorporate some sort of a tie down system so that the rod sections in the different compartments will stay in place. These cases are great if used in conjunction with one of the other two varies of cases but should not be used alone as protection for you fly rod. The sock is simply to keep your precious rod dirt, dust and scratch free, nothing more.
Buying a quality fly rod is one of the biggest investments any angler will have in fly fishing. If you can justify spending your hard earned dollars on the rod that you have always wanted, take the time to protect it properly for years to come with a quality rod case.

Walker County Narcotics Enforcement Team officer Chuck Tidwell said the evacuation was necessary after a suspect allegedly tried to flush an active meth lab down a toilet in a home on Dogtown Road around 11 p.m. Wednesday night.
Jamey Dale Gilbert, 34, of Nauvoo, reportedly flushed the lab when NET officers executed a search warrant at his residence. Tidwell said meth labs are highly combustible at any point, but that made the situation even more dangerous. Carbon Hill Fire and Rescue was called to the scene in the event of an explosion.
"When we entered the home it was fully involved with smoke from the lab," Tidwell said. "It was a very dangerous situation."
Tidwell said four labs and a large amount of finished meth product were found inside the home.
Gilbert had just been released from jail on possession charges nine days earlier, Tidwell said. Glen Allen Davis, 39, Jerry Lawrence, 31, Jerry Clyde Kimbrell, 35, all of Nauvoo, and Michelle Miranda Uptain, 27, were also in the residence. All five have been charged with first-degree unlawful manufacturing of a controlled substance, trafficking meth, unlawful possession of a controlled substance and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia.
Uptain, according to Tidwell, is three months pregnant.
"It's hard for me to believe that a pregnant lady was in that house with all those fumes," he said. "We had the fire and rescue folks check her out. I was especially concerned for her."
The area around the home was evacuated for several hours. Tidwell said a Drug Enforcement Administration cleanup crew was called to the scene and wasn't finished with the cleanup efforts until 6 a.m. the following morning.

Do I need to get cash?
I would definitely take cash. A lot of people won't accept checks. I usually get a five, 4 ones, and 4 quarters and see how far I can make $10 stretch. This makes me really think about what I buy. If there is something for more than that and I really want it, I see if they will take a local check or hold it for me for a half an hour while I run get more. If you're on the hunt for big ticket items like furniture, of course you want to bring more.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
This comprehensive full day tour explores many of the area's most notable sights. Starting off from the pier, you'll head south along a picturesque route to Chiran, an out-lying castle town best known for its well-preserved residences and gardens of the Samurai. Surrounded by moss-covered stonewalls and sporting black tile roofs, the 250-year-old houses recapture the traditional essence of the Edo Period. Today, Samurai descendants still inhabit some of the old estates, but many of the gardens are open to the public. Though small, each garden is an excellent example of "borrowed landscaping," where the surrounding mountains and scenery are an integral part of the garden design.
Your morning ends with lunch at a local restaurant. Continuing on, you'll drive to Cape Nagasakibana, the southernmost point on the Satsuma Peninsula, offering outstanding panoramic views of Mt. Kaimon and Cape Sata across the peninsula. Located near the famous hot springs resort of Ibusuki, Cape Nagasakibana is a region of lush vegetation, flowers, and palm trees. And then, drive to Lake Ikeda, a stunning crater lake formed after the collapse of a volcano. Kyushu's largest lake, Ikeda is over 765 feet deep and is home to eels weighing over 30 pounds. From here, you'll have views of the magnificent Mt. Kaimon, a 3,000-foot high volcano often compared with Mt. Fuji for its nearly perfect conical-shaped top. After short photo stop, back to the pier..
Please note: This tour includes approximately 2 hours of moderate walking with a limited number of steps to negotiate. The tour is available to wheelchair guests with a collapsible wheelchair, who are able to both make their way on and off the coach and sit in a coach seat. Those guests with mobility concerns are cautioned to evaluate their personal level of ability and stamina. Casual clothing and comfortable, flat walking shoes are recommended.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — ANDERSON — Even Vontae Davis seemed a bit unsure how he came down with his first-quarter interception.
The play seemed to happen in an instant. Jacksonville quarterback Blaine Gabbert underthrew wide receiver Cecil Shorts III, and Davis got his hands up to tip the football. As it bounced above both players' heads, Davis created the slightest separation between himself and Shorts. Then he began to pull the ball in.
But he also had to make certain both feet were inbounds. Somehow, in the span of two-and-a-half steps, Davis managed to secure the ball and tap his feet inside the sideline.
"It happened so fast, and when I came down with it I was surprised I caught it," the cornerback later told the Indianapolis Colts website. "It was a tough pick because I seen it at the last minute. But I came down with it."
The play was the first of three interceptions against Gabbert on Sunday, and it was the first shot fired on a day when the Indianapolis defense often made the Jaguars offense appear helpless. Jacksonville's only points in a 37-3 loss came after an Andrew Luck interception gave it a short field, and the Colts' defense outscored the Jaguars when Darius Butler ran interception back for a 41-yard touchdown.
That return gave Indianapolis its first lead at 10-3, and it was Butler's third touchdown since joining the Colts early last season. He had two interceptions — returning one for a score — and a fumble recovery in a 27-10 win at Jacksonville last year.
He said EverBank field is a special place to him.
"It's like a home game for me," Butler said. "I'm only from about five-and-a-half hours away in Fort Lauderdale. A lot of family always comes out. That's how things work some times."
Things have worked out quite well for the Indianapolis defense the past two weeks. They allowed just seven points a week ago in San Francisco and held Jacksonville to just 40 rushing yards on Sunday.
Maurice Jones-Drew has spent the majority of his career making Colts defenders look silly, but he managed just 23 yards on 13 carries against an improved defensive front this time around.
"To hold MJD to 1.8 yards per carry, phenomenal," Indianapolis head coach Chuck Pagano said. "Phenomenal job by that defense."
The defense needed to be that good with the offense struggling early.
The Colts were scoreless in the first quarter and really didn't seem to get on track until reserve running back Donald Brown broke off a 50-yard run midway through the second quarter.
By then, Butler already had given Indianapolis the lead.
"We needed a spark," Pagano said. "We got off to a little bit of a slow start offensively, and the defense was out there bailing us out and making plays. That play that Darius made, the pick-6, definitely got us some momentum and was a huge play. D-Buts does that all the time. He's kinda Johnny on the spot, if you will."
Davis said the defensive backs' big plays couldn't come without help from the defensive line up front. The Colts sacked Gabbert four times — led by three from outside linebacker Robert Mathis — and never allowed the quarterback to get comfortable in the pocket.
"We're just playing together as a unit," Davis said. "It starts in practice, and we try to stick together no matter what happens. We know the (opposing) offense is gonna make their plays, but we stick together and we know we've got 60 minutes. So we just play hard for 60 minutes."

Meet Lindsay, a busy mama of two silly little boys. She is a southern girl with a loud laugh, a sensitive heart and a little bit of sarcasm on the side. She likes to draw and paint a lot.
Lindsay developed a love for art at a young age. Her childhood was filled with drawing, coloring, and creative projects. In a college art history class her love for art came alive. Lindsay began painting for friends and family, but it wasn't until she left the work place to stay at home with her first child that she discovered the opportunity to sell her art in the handmade community of Etsy.
Lindsay opened Paint Me A Picture in 2009, selling hand painted nursery/children's artwork and custom designs. It evolved into smaller, fun paintings and home decor, and in February 2012 Lindsay began drawing. She knew it was time for a change and Pen & Paint came together a few months later offering inspiring art prints, colorful stationery and the same fun canvases from Paint Me A Picture.

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
On Tuesday, the city of Toledo broke ground for the reconstruction of Fire Station No. 3, located at Bush and Erie streets in north Toledo. The project represents a $2.83 million capital improvement investment for the city and will add 7,000 square feet of space to the existing station.
"Many of our fire stations were constructed shortly after the turn of the 20th century and they have served the community well," said Mayor Mike Bell. "By renovating and expanding 3's station, we are preserving a piece of Toledo and fire service history, while continuing to provide professional emergency services to the north Toledo neighborhood."
Fire Station No. 3 went into service in July 1927 and was remodeled in the early 1990s. The station was closed in September 2012 when significant structural cracks were identified in the floor of the apparatus bay, and debris began falling from the ceiling of the basement. Engineers determined the existing station could no longer structurally support the weight of the equipment and apparatus currently used in the modern fire service. The station was home to a single engine, which has been relocated to Fire Station No. 13 on Front Street in east Toledo.
"Our paramount concern in closing the Fire Station 3 was ensuring firefighter safety," said Luis Santiago, Chief of the Toledo Fire and Rescue Department. "This new facility will enable us to continue service in this neighborhood and ensure that our firefighters have a safe, high quality place to live and work while on their tour."
The original plan was to replace it with a new building on Summit Street, but pressure from residents led to city leaders opting to renovate.
"Residents wanted the fire house here. It serves dual purposes for them. It's a safe haven. It's a symbol of what this neighborhood has always stood for," said Beth Lewandowski, a north Toledo resident.
The existing fire station building will be renovated to serve as living quarters and office space for the firefighters staffing Fire Station 3. The expansion will include two apparatus bays to provide structurally sound and sustainable housing for the equipment stationed at the firehouse. In addition to the interior renovation and expansion, the façade of the building will be repaired and replaced in many locations.
Coverage for the shuttered station continues to be provided by Fire Stations No. 5, 7, 13 and 24 during the rebuild of the station. Toledo's fire chief says what's best for the neighborhood and what's best for city taxpayers had to be taken into consideration.
"As far as preserving history, it's going to cost money and are you willing to spend that money. And at the same time, we do have to provide the service," said Santiago.
Fire Station No. 3 is expected to be complete by spring 2014.
Next week, the city will break ground for the new Fire Station 12, which will be built at Blair Park.

Dolphins fall in double overtime
Related Links
JACKSONVILLE, FL--- In what has become a common theme in 2012, the JU men's soccer team gave up a late goal Friday night in Jacksonville to fall to Lipscomb 1-0 in the second overtime period in the Dolphins final home game of the season.
In a match where neither team could create real threatening opportunities, the Bisons were able to finally crack through and score the decisive goal.
The Dolphins (3-12-1, 2-5-0 A-Sun) were outshot 23-13 on the night including 8-1 in the two overtime periods. Jacksonville's defense began to unravel in the extra time as Lipscomb was able to fire multiple shots at goal that just missed.
After 100 minutes of scoreless play, the Bisons would strike the game winner just 14 seconds into the second period of overtime.
The ball entered the box and Lipscomb's Reece Holcombe fired a shot that was blocked. Troy Barr found himself in the right place at the right time as he corralled the rebound and fired a shot passed the outstretched hands of Dolphin goal keeper Gavin Carlin.
In what was a fairly even match, the Dolphins just could not find the right combination of passes and shots to break through and score a goal. The Dolphins came into the match having scored at least a goal in their last five matches and eight of their last nine.
Lipscomb now vaults ahead of the Dolphins in the A-Sun standings with two wins and a tie as the Dolphins' conference record sits at 2-5-0 and leaves them on the outside looking in in terms of qualifying for the conference tournament.
The Dolphins will look to get back into the top six when they take on cross-town rival UNF Nov. 3 for a River City Rumble point and the regular season finale.

Cardinals TE King says offensive line is not far off
That's not good.
The team's much-maligned offensive line suffered a rash of injuries as well as ineffectiveness, and it led to the team struggling in both the running and passing games.
As such, conventional wisdom says the Cardinals should address the shortcomings via the NFL Draft, perhaps even with their first round pick.
Cardinals tight end Jeff King, though, thinks the solution to the woes on the offensive line may already be on the roster.
"I don't think our offensive line is as far off as people think with the emergence of Nate Potter and Bobby Massie," he said while co-hosting Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Wednesday.
Potter, a seventh round pick out of Boise State, and Massie, a fourth round selection out of Mississippi, both got significant playing time as rookies. Massie started at right tackle from day one, while Potter was insterted into the lineup Week 9 against Green Bay.
Each had varying levels of success, with Massie making notable improvement as the season wore on.
"If you go back and look at the way Bobby Massie played against Chris Long the first time we played St. Louis at St. Louis on that Thursday night, and then we played them a couple weeks later here in Arizona, two different players," King said. "He grew so much and had so much thrown at him through 16 games against some really good players that you can't help but to get better."
King said he believes Massie will turn out to be a good player, but his highest praise may have been for Potter.
"Nate Potter reminds me a lot of Jordan Gross," he said.
Gross was selected by the Carolina Panthers with the eighth pick in the 2003 NFL Draft. He's a two-time Pro Bowler and was a teammate of King's for five seasons.
"Just about the way that he's a technician and the way he goes about it," King said of the similarities. "Obviously he's got a lot of growing to do, a lot of growing to do."
Given that, should the Cardinals look to April's draft as a way to fix the line?
"In my opinion, no," King said. "Just by watching those guys play, the improvement that I saw, knowing how they prepared," he said.
But King did offer one caveat.
"Do we all need to play better up front," he said. "Absolutely, there's no doubt about that."

CATEGORIES Independent, SXSW, Fandom, Trailer Trash, Home Entertainment, Trailers and Clips, Features, Trailers and Clips, SXSW Film Festival, CinematicalPremiering tomorrow at SXSW is this years-in-the-making documentary called For The Love of Movies: A History of American Film Criticism, narrated by Patricia Clarkson and directed by Gerald Peary and Amy Geller. As the current film critic struggles to find a job, an audience and a purpose, this doc -- according to Jeff Wells -- is a "chronicle of magnificent obsessions and magnificent dreams, and a rise-and-fall story covering scores of critics, the entirety of the Hollywood film culture from the '20s to the present, and hundreds if not thousands of movies." Watch the trailer below and keep an eye on the third dude who pops up and let us know if he looks (and sounds) just the wee bit familiar.
Next up is a film I whole-heartedly recommend. A funky, oddly hilarious experimental flick that simultaneously mocks and sympathizes with the Me Generation, My Suicide follows a technology-obsessed high school student who decides to off himself on camera as part of a student project. Though it's still way early, I wouldn't be surprised if the film's lead actor, newcomer Gabriel Sunday, walks away with an acting award or if the film itself takes the audience award. Check out the trailer below ... and more SXSW trailers over here.
I also want to take this time to spit out a reminder that you at home can enjoy a whole lot of the South By Southwest Film Festival right now. IFC currently has four films On Demand via IFC Fest Direct, including the much buzzed-about Alexander the Last (which I was just about to watch myself), Medicine for Melancholy, Zift and Paper Covers Rock. Alternatively, you can watch popular films from last year's SXSW Fest -- like the Potter doc We Are Wizards and The Lost Coast -- on Hulu for free, courtesy of Cinetic Media. There! Plenty to do on a lazy Sunday afternoon, huh?

- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/31/2014The food was great but for two people we spent $185 so we thought it was a little pricey.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/31/2014WE HAD TO GET IN & OUT IN 1 HOUR TO SEE A SHOW. OUR SERVER WAS FAST, EFFICIENT & FRIENDLY. THE STEAKS WERE COOKED TO PERFECTION!

- Not this timeOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/30/2014First off i called to make a reservation about 9 hours before we were arriving. I reserved a booth. When i got there they sat us at a regular table. I told them I had reserved a booth and they said sorry they are all reserved. I thought I reserved one. This is not my first time here but this time it fell short. We were offered rolls when ordering drinks that NEVER arrived even after us asking twice. We ordered a full bottle of wine and the waitress opened a half bottle twice. normally when they bring your filet mignon and salad they wait for you to cut it open to be sure it's cooked Ok. That never happen. never offered pepper they usually do. We went with another couple they could not believe service could be so bad for a $400 dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It was excellentOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/30/2014The food was great the menu and wine list slection was great. however the restaurant was quite noisySpecial Features:
- Disappointingmnoormo1VIPDined on 8/29/2014The steakhouse has premium prices but the quality is not the same. The garlic bread appetizer was delicious. The steaks were cooked to perfection albeit after the filet mignon had to be sent back because it was not medium rare. The chimichurri sauce lacked flavor. The decor is nice and not the atypical dark steakhouse. The service was poor. Our server did not come by to ask if our steaks were cooked properly. One of our party had to flag down a manager. The lobster mashed potatoes is a side I would recomend. It comes with big chunks of lobster meat. The wine selection is good. The Francis Coppola Preserve is an excellent red wine for steaks.Special Features:

- Great FoodBillFDined on 8/24/2014We were seated at a booth which I think was because we were Open Table reservation. We had dined there previously but it is always a preferred destination given past experiences. We had a great bottle of wine and started with the bacon appetizer coupled with the toast and cheese sauce and a beet salad which in combination was ridiculously great. We had the porterhouse to share which was served with the bone and the filet separated which worked out perfectly. Desert was not an option as we were sated. Great place, Easy and we will continue to go there every time in the areaSpecial Features:
- MRFavoriteVIPDined on 8/24/2014It was our first experience at MJ Mohegan Sun. The food was excellent, especially the NY strip cooked perfectly to medium rare. The disappointments were when our party of 4 arrived, the hostess station could not find our reservation. Also, and more disturbing was the main course was brought to our table and we were still finishing the appetizers. I just wish the meal was spaced out more appropriately.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Yes, by some standards it is expensive, I figure at least $100/pp with drinks plus or minus depending on your selections. I don't mind spending a little more for a great meal. Try the bacon.

- This is my review of a overpriced.JordansDined on 8/16/2014We have been to Jordan's before and have had a great meal. This time was not like the other times. Our meals were not great. The chicken dinner was dry and over cooked. We boxed it up and then throw it away so it would not stink our room up. My salmon dinner , you couldn't even taste the salmon because of all the olive tasted that was on it. They can do a lot better with their food.

From BPM, ERP, Adobe LiveCycle bridges apps across the board
Flash and PDF combine with J2EE server to streamline IT development and reduce support costs
You probably know Adobe for its Flash creative software, Acrobat document processing systems, and now RIA (rich Internet application) development using Flex technology. What you might not realize is the company's BPM (business process management) strength, with about 1,500 clients employing Adobe BPM enterprise solutions.
True, early BPM success was helped by purchases of Accelio and Q-Link (for forms design and workflow, respectively). But over the past three years Adobe's smartly accomplished two things with all its assets that other leaders in the BPM space – EMC, Global 360, and IBM – have yet to match: provide superb development tools and deliver a satisfying experience to end-users as they interact with applications through rich interfaces.
Click for larger view.
Because LiveCycle sits on top of your existing customer data, these interfaces form the bridge to content management repositories, sales force automation systems, ERP (enterprise resource planning) applications, and legacy applications. More importantly, by enabling easy interaction with these systems, it's more likely that users will not abandon Web technologies for more expensive support routes, such as phoning call centers or submitting paper forms.
To evaluate LiveCycle ES, I deployed the full Business Transformation Edition on a Windows 2003 Server running JBoss. I then set up several Windows XP workstations (connected to the server) running LiveCycle Workbench ES to develop forms and documents, and to design business processes. My first test assembled a mortgage application that might be used by financial institutions. In a second exercise, I created a Flash interface (called a Form Guide) to a Documentum data repository by employing the LiveCycle ES Connector for ECM, which greatly simplified an application found in life sciences where investigators record details of drug trials that are subject to strict regulatory compliance.
Both tests resulted in applications that were easy to deploy and administer with intuitive user interfaces. Moreover, there were no development pain points as I created forms and then inserted the business logic to secure and route them, output to PDF and Flash, and performed related tasks, including e-mail notifications.
Fully equipped workshop
Workbench is an interesting hybrid, one that should satisfy the needs of hard-core developers, more casual forms designers, and business analysts. One important distinction from others' development systems is that you work connected to the LiveCycle ES server; this means you always have access to resources stored on the server (such as images and reusable code snippets) as well as the ability to call services running on the server.

HAVANA, Ill.--Two absentee ballots have turned the mayoral race in Havana upside down.
Those two ballots tied alderwoman Brenda Stadsholt and Alderman Charles Campbell.
State law requires that the mayor of Havana must be decided by a lottery.
Mason County Clerk Bill Blessman says there is no determined method, but in this case they used golf balls with the candidate's names on them.
Blessman said, "The main thing is that it be fair and impartial and that both candidates are okay with the method we use. That way even though it has to be determined by a lottery, it was done equally and fairly in the process."
After the very quick drawing candidate Brenda Stadsholt was chosen as mayor.
Stadsholt says she doesn't think this was the best way to be chosen and she feels the process may taint the importance of the position.
Stadsholt said, "Of course I'm happy now because it was my golf ball that was drawn but I still don't think that's an appropriate procedure to elect a mayor of a city."
Both candidates say that this experience serves as a lesson to not only the people of Havana, but voters everywhere.
Campbell said, "I think this proves to every voter that their vote does count."
Stadsholt said, "I think this is a wonderful lesson for young people, old people anybody, that one vote definitely counts in local elections."
Campbell says they are still going to work together to do what's best for Havana.
In every election there is a winner and a loser but in this case Blessman says either candidate would've been a winner for Havana.

What, More O'Hanlon Now?
Tuesday, March 11, 2008 at 9:45 am
Michael E. O'Hanlon continues to demonstrate that ignorance or shoddy reasoning is no obstacle to placing an op-ed. Two days after his problematic piece introducing us to Brookings Benchmarks — or, as I like to call them, The Only Iraq Metric That Matters — here he is in USA Today.
This time O'Hanlon doesn't bother to pretend his Benchmarks are responsible methods of calculating progress. He just bald-facedly states that progress is happening and chides the Democrats for their strategic myopia in opposing the worst strategic mistake of the post-Vietnam generation.
The Democratic position — embraced particularly by Sen. Barack Obama but also by Sen. Hillary Clinton — is that we need to make haste for the exits. Obama rigidly calls for pulling nearly all combat forces out of Iraq within about a year of Inauguration Day. Clinton's position leaves room for some flexibility, though her words on the campaign trail are generally similar to Obama's. But neither candidate's approach would be supported by most leaders — American or Iraqi — on the ground in Iraq. Only those who have concluded that the war is already lost tend to back such a position. And that latter viewpoint is far less common today than it was a year ago, or even months ago.
Democrats in Congress — including the two seeking the presidency and the leadership on Capitol Hill — should work for success in Iraq while reminding Iraqis that absent continued progress, the U.S. commitment could end, and soon. It is a message consistent with Democrats' past views on the conflict, yet cognizant of the considerable gains there in the past year.
This would be a noble, worthy approach for an opposition party in a time of war. And my guess is that beyond being the right thing to do, such a change in strategy would be politically appealing to American voters come November.
So there it is. O'Hanlon's peddling a sellable message, allegedly — did he not notice the 2006 election? — while gussying it up as scholarship. Incidentally, he still hasn't returned my requests for comment. I'm starting to get a complex!
