Johannes Mehserle pulverized on the witness stand
by Minister of Information JR
Mehserle began the morning with, "My main focus was on his (Grant's) hands going into his right pocket. I remember the digging motion with his right hand. I was pulling as hard as I could to get it out. I made the decision at that point to tase him," said Johannes Mehserle on the witness stand. "I didn't know what his intentions were. I remember saying I'm going to tase him twice." Mehserle made it clear that his defense was that he thought that Oscar Grant had a gun. "I thought that I didn't want to get shot."
"I stood up to create distance, so the taser would work," said Mehserle as he tried to justify tasing an unarmed 150-170-pound person who was under the restraint of two police officers who are over 6 feet and 250 pounds each. "I remember the pop, that wasn't very loud. It wasn't like a gunshot. I remember thinking, 'What went wrong with the taser?'"
Then Mehserle broke out into a theatrical sob that should have won him an award. Through his tears and red flushed face, he continued: "I looked at my right hand. I didn't know what to think. It (his 40 caliber revolver) shouldn't have been there. I remember Oscar Grant saying, 'You shot me!'" At that point Oscar Grant's mother, Wanda Johnson, marched out of the courtroom.
About 20 seconds later, Tim Killings from Oakland began to march out, and he shouted, "You should save those fuckin' tears, dude." The presiding judge, Robert Perry, demanded that Killings be arrested for contempt.
The political climate that allowed six out of the seven Black males under 40 to be banned from the courtroom is consistent with the track record of this case: The trial was moved out of Alameda County because of defense claims that Blacks in the area could not be unbiased, and no Black people were picked to sit on the Los Angeles jury.
Another point that must be documented is that the LA Sentinel, the biggest Black newspaper in Los Angeles, was denied entry to Mehserle's testimony under the pretext that the courtroom was too full. That brings to three the number of Black journalists excluded Friday: Anyi Howell of Youth Radio, the Sentinel editor and myself.
The judge, who was angry at Killings' remarks, shouted, "I will clear the courtroom of everyone, even the press, if we have any more outbursts." He then declared a five-minute recess. When Mehserle left the witness stand, which was after the jury had left the room, he was no longer crying.
The defense ended its line of questions by asking Mehserle to speak directly to the jury. He said, "I didn't intend to shoot Mr. Grant. I meant to tase him."
The prosecution started off by asking Mehserle how much time he spent preparing for this day in court. The defense lawyer kept objecting, and Mehserle acted confused as if he did not understand the line of questioning, which was designed to show that Mehserle rehearsed his theatrics for months before the murder trial got underway. Mehserle finally conceded to preparing "more than an hour."
The prosecutor saw it as his mission to prove that Mehserle meant to shoot Oscar Grant. It was never his intention to tase him. Under cross-examination, Mehserle blurted out, "In my mind, I thought he was going for a gun." The prosecutor asked, "When you watched the video, did you hear yourself say, I'm going to tase him?" Mehserle replied, "No."
The prosecutor continued, "Why did you fire (what you thought was a taser) when Officer Pirone was in such close proximity (because the tase would shock anyone touching the victim)?" Mehserle answered, "I knew I had to act very fast with the taser." The prosecutor fired back, "Because you were going against a gun?"
"Yes," said Mehserle. Then the prosecutor asked him what effect does being tased have on the body. He answered that tasing makes the body tighten up. Stein then unloaded his legal nuclear bomb on Mehserle when he asked him, "Why would you want a hand holding a gun to constrict?" Mehserle answered, "I wasn't thinking about that."
Mehserle later admitted on the stand that he never called for medical assistance in what he was trying to define as an accidental shooting, as well as he never told any of the other police officers on the platform or at the BART police station headquarters that he meant to pull out his taser. The day ended with the family, friends and supporters of Oscar Grant feeling good about how the prosecutor pulverized Johannes Mehserle on the stand.
The last action of the court, after court had been adjourned, was to ban me for what a baliff said that I said. He lied and said that I told witnesses that I was going to put bullets in their back. This couldn't be further from the truth. The bailiff claimed the judge said that I couldn't come back into the courtroom and if I did, I would be arrested. I spoke with a supervisor, who told me to come back and that the particular bailiff that lied on me may not be working the front door of the Mehserle courtroom. He also told me that he would only enforce the ban if the judge enforced it.
It was another day in the Los Angeles Jim Crow courtroom of Robert Perry. It showed us how much things have not changed in this country, since the time when it was openly said that a Black man has no rights that whites – in this case, pigs – are bound to respect.

On Friday June 25, 2010, Oakland resident Timothy Killings who was watching the Johannes Mehserle trial could not contain himself in court and shouted out to Mehserle, "Save those fucking tears" when he was testifying about shooting Oscar Grant.
During direct examination by Michael Rains, Mehserle began to sob when talking about shooting Grant with his weapon. The family and other court room spectators where not moved by Mehserle's display of emotion and Grant's mother, Wanda Johnson, got up and walked out of court.
Killings was released from the Los Angeles County Jail on Monday and was back at the courthouse on Tuesday morning to support justice for Oscar Grant. He cannot visit the courtroom and he has been barred from the ninth floor.

Nice writing JR. No bias whatsoever. I like how you kept this story balanced and impartial. You may want to take one more writing class from whatever jr college you dropped out of and before you take another shot at real journalism. Also, the fact you were removed from the courtroom where the the very trial you're reporting on is taking place really adds to your credibility.
I think I like this sentence the best. " I spoke with a supervisor, who told me to come back and that the particular bailiff that lied on me may not be working the front door of the Mehserle courtroom."
LIED ON ME??? Keep up the great work.
By the way, Mehserle is going to walk. Enjoy the trial…from the parking lot.↓
John Mulligan
Mehserle isn't going anywhere. This is involuntary manslaughter, at least, but I'll agree that it isn't murder. He will go to prison. Mehserle had no business pulling a tazer on someone when another cop was kneeling on the man's head. I have no doubt, however, that people were rowdy in court and needed to be held in contempt.↓
I agree with something "Acquitted" said. There was a lot of bias in the way this story was reported. It'spretty clear that JR doesn't like white people. It's also pretty clear that Aquitted has hate issues as well, I sure hope you're not a cop. Mehserle should, at least, be convicted of a 192. Cops are entrusted to carry and use deadly weapons, we entrust our lives to them. The training they receive should weed out weaknesses such as Mehserle's innate cowardice. The selection process (Especially the Oral board examinations.) should be able to identify personality traits such as racism. These processes aren't working and innocent people are being killed. Change them. Also, Acquitted, hiding behind a fake name is cowardice too.↓
was the baliff white? if so i am sure that is why he "lied on you."↓
There is a black guy in the White House and you still think America, and white folk, haven't changed. Smoke another one brother…↓
McCain/ Palin supporters were proof that a large segment of white America hasn't changed. Obama's election proves that white liberals and minorities are finally starting to outnumber racist whites, but there's still a long way to go, as evidenced by the political climate since Obama won.↓
I agree with RobThomas, we do have a long way to go. Racism, or prejudice of any kind, must be overcome if America is to become the "Nation" it has so long claimed to be. Johannes Mehserle is a coward who should never have been allowed to carry a gun. He panicked in a critical situation. The fact that so many like him pass the psych tests to become cops suggests that the entire process needs a nationwide overhaul. If a regular citizen had done what Mehserle did, he would go to prison. Cops must be held to a higher standard – Mehserle should, by virtue of that standard, get twice the sentence for whatever charge on which he's convicted. He WILL be convicted of a crime, he committed one.↓
Thom Schimer
Mehserle didn't "panic in a critical situation" – he knew exactly what he was doing when he murdered a man in cold blood. Fry the bastard!↓
There is a black guy on the Supreme Court… and no y'all haven't… I'll hit that↓
mike I
Actually he is a half white uncle tom who was raised by whites! Nothing has changed for the poor,and people of color who are still victims of racial discrimination at all levels, from housing to the job market to the police to shitty schools to the court system. Most whites still harbor hatred and fear of people of color and that is a fact. go study willie lynch, you might learn something↓
Apollonia Jordan Bay View Writer
JR is doing an awesome job making sure this killer cop is brought to justice!↓
J from IL
Since race has everything to do with how a comment is taken here, I'll say up front that I am a white woman from the midwest in my late 30s. I am not a college-educated far left-liberal, I am a working class, married woman who finished her formal education career after a few classes in a junior college. And Contrarian, America has changed in many ways, but putting a black man in office (whom, yes, I voted for) has brought the very worst of what has not changed in the white mind to the surface in all its ugly, fearful, hatefulness. And Acquitted, your comments about the author's education level is just another form of hate and prejudice. Are you suggesting those without a formal college education should just shut up and never make pretensions to sharing their opinions, ideas, and research through writing and leave that to all of the oh-so-intelligent people who pay ridiculous amounts of money to get churned out of the university machine not much smarter than when they started but a whole lot broker? Police do not have the right to kill unarmed citizens of this country and I am sick to death of hearing case after case of it. I'm a "nice married white woman" with kids and I loathe and fear cops despite the fact they think of me as one of their docile herd because of the way I look and where I live as does my "nice, white" husband who grew up upper-middle class and college educated. The distrust of cops is spreading and the unwillingness to let the sick bullies among them kill and destroy lives at will is rising. The "good" cops need to start telling the truth and getting out of the way so we can clean out this growing strain of sickness from our "justice" system.↓
Jack Asse
Um, based on your comments, you are not a married white woman. Please don't treat the rest of us like the moron who wrote this story, like we are stupid. Nice try.↓
That was the most ESL article I've ever read- please don't insult real journalists by calling yourself one.↓
East Coast
"The trial was moved out of Alameda County because of defense claims that Blacks in the area could not be unbiased, …"
And this article proves that the Court was correct in moving the trial to ensure fairness.↓
It is interesting to see how many cops are monitoring these stories, and adding their commentary. What people need to understand is that, all these pigs are going to stick together, they see this case as an indictment of all of them. If only it was!!!! We would love to see all these dirty, stick together pigs go to jail. But yes, it is interesting to see that these pigs cannot even hold their emotions back when they read stories written from our side… they have to jump in and comment. However, this is a good sign. Because it is showing their fear… they are scared to be held accountable. For every killer pig that gets off, like those in the Sean Bell case, the rest of these pigs feel they can get away with murder.
I hope this killer cop gets ass raped in jail before they shank him! OH and you posting pigs…. You all are next!↓
You know, one of the reasons that cops get away with murder every day is because we live in a society that condones and encourages male patriarchal violence as a means to justify an end. I'm not a pacifist, and I think that Mehserle will get what's coming to him; I think that he murdered Oscar Grant and I think that all the killer cops and abusive cops (and just about every other cop) ought to pay – but the notion that anyone in the entire world should be "ass-raped" not only implies that you are a misogynist and disgusting, but also that you, and people who think like you, are part of the bigger problem. Rape isn't a joke or something you can throw around. When men like you learn to stop using your dicks as weapons, then maybe we can get some solidarity on and really fuckin change something.
I hope Mehserle gets what he deserves, and I hope that men like you grow up and take responsibility for your bullshit.↓
Ignorance is bliss! I would like to see Oakland go without any cops on the street s for just one full week. What do you think it would look like then? What did the good neighbors in Oakland do when Oscar died? They burned cars…in their own neighborhood, they bashed in the windows of the merchants….in their own neighborhood, then they looted the the merchants ….in their own neighborhood, they set the streets on fire…..in their own neighborhood. Guess who paid for it? You and Me….the taxpayers! All this in just one night! It wasn't worse only because, ya, you guessed it….the "pigs" as you so elogently put it, were keeping order. It was a horrible mistake. One question, why didn't Oscar just cooperate and put let them cuff him until they could sort things out? The others in his group cooperated and yes, they are still alive. Think it through buddy…..you don't know all the facts. This is real life not TV land.↓
Justice for Oscar Grant! WE are ALL Oscar Grant! Those whose comments of disrespect, racism or whatever else that leads you to be so hateful, may you find a way to healing and find self respect. Those who disrespect others, have no respect for themselves. This case is already setting precedence, law enforcement will be held responsible for their "above the law" conduct across the land. The climate of the media and it's coverage has def. opened up from terror media to open coverage of reality. We are learning to work with the system to practice our rights, to due justice, we will get through this process in progress for THE PEOPLE.↓
NO cop would EVER use a Taser if they thought the subject had a gun. This is the big irony: we were sold on Tasers as an "alternative" to the gun, but never has it been used in place of a gun. It's only been used where no other, or other less-lethal force has been used before (but 85% of the time on unarmed individuals). Cops have CONSTANTLY maintained they will never use a Taser if a gun is involved–they will match deadly force with deadly force. This cop has consistently lied from Day 1…as most do in wrongful deaths. Remember it's legal for them to lie in their course of duty, so says the almighty supreme court. They are trained to lie and why should they change their ways on the stand? They have been allowed to live above the law their whole career. Something's gotta give! I AM OSCAR GRANT!↓
You have no idea what you are talking about! If a cop has someone down even if they suspect he has a gun if at all possible they will tase rather than shoot. When they use their gun, they use two hands. When they use the taser they only use one hand. Mehserle only used one hand. It is amazing how uninformed people are in this case. You hear only what you want to hear. If someone broke into your house at night while you were sleeping who would you call? I'm not saying who is right or wrong in this case but the ignorance in these comments are unbelievable.↓
Excellent observation Debbie. Why would you use a taser if you thought your life was at risk, especially from a young, black male? Problematic!↓
i know this is going to give me some flack, but please do not take what I am trying to say as an insult. Why is it that of all the cases in America that involve minorities, do African Americans feel the need to protest by starting riots that include vandalizing, hurting eachother, and always in their own communities?? I don't understand it. It doesn't make any type of statement that is positive and worse yet, you are setting back black business owners in your area by ruining their property, and hurting the very people you are supposed to be united with. No doubt Oakland will be rightfully outraged, but it looks barbaric and the respect level for the black culture suffers.
You will do your entire community a disservice by acting out…African Americans need to work on changing the publics view of them. YES their is prejudice and racism felt by African Americans, there is no doubt about this and it is quite frankly ignorant as can be coming from a society that should be advanced enough to be above a racially archaic mindset. However, the mayhem that will ensue should a Not Guilty verdict be read will only drag the culture through the mud, and cause an "I told ya so" reaction from all the people expecting this type of behavior. PROVE that a riot circa 1992 Rodney King verdict is something that was in the past, something that LA experienced. Set a prescident. Prove that peaceful rallys, protests and pressure on the government and law enforcement will cause more of a change than a riot.
I am riveted by the Oscar Grant case. I was lucky enough (the only lucky part) to be serving Jury duty on that day at the LA courthouse and saw the peaceful protests. I looked up Oscar Grant on my phone and I have followed the case obsessively since then. My heart goes out to the Grant family- I would want murder conviction UNDOUBTEDLY regardless of the symantics; i didn't know it was my gun, I thought he had a gun- whatever. It is a person that was killed at the hands of another, and acquittal would be heartbreaking.
However, more heartbreaking would be further senseless violence. Be peaceful. Sometimes the louder you speak, the less people hear.
Dear Merber,
You might want to do a little more research on the history of riots in the United States. Historically, race riots were started by white people in black neighborhoods (look up the entire early 10's to the mid '50's across the country for details). Also look up "Sundown Towns". Political riots which sprang up in the 60's were a direct reaction to dire circumstances and society's inability to address any issues of African Americans unless our shouts were accompanied by the sound of broken glass. Very rarely in a riot of which you are referring to, do we burn down our own homes. Businesses which benefit from but do not give back to our communities are fair targets.
Maybe "black culture suffers" in your narrow lens, but I feel just fine, thank you very much. And please don't beg us for shit. We don't actually need your very pale incite.↓
Nuff Said
Absolutely right, Shakes. If there had been no "riots"–urban rebellions is probably a better word–in the '60s, there would never have been a federal Fair Housing Act. The powers that be never make concessions to the people unless they are scared to death. Power only retreats in the face of some more power.
If there had not been the righteous expression of the people's anger on the streets of Oakland in Jan. '09, Mehserle would never have been arrested or prosecuted. Nuff said!↓
Merber may have had a problematic initial response but you can't deny that once the riots were started (By whoever), we (African-Americans) did proceed to cause mayhem in our own communities as well as others.↓
White male
Hey Merber,
Your right, this is bringing you some flack…. because your a racist. How do you expect the community to meet violence and murder with peace? Thats outrageous. Do you let someone continually punch you in the face and keep asking them to stop? Or do you make them stop?↓
Chris K
No one should get away with murder. I hope the murderer rots in prison.↓
This Article is Proof The Executive Order of the Patriot Act was Specifically Design For People of African Descent↓
I work in Oakland helping people and I have heard this quote many times on tv and from peoples mouths, "racism is dead in America". I beg to differ, racism exists and I see it almost daily. I have been called a honkey, cracker, white devil, etc endless times since working in Oakland, saving these peoples lives, and it is all from Blacks. This is not a racial statement this is a FACT. I have never called a Black person a racist name, ever, yet I get so many racist comments from Blacks it is leading me to the conclusion that Blacks in America are the MOST Racist group out there. Vi understand generalizing is not a correct method of proving anything, jet like calling all cops pigs, or all white people racist, etc. Confronting a black person about their racism makes them more pissed off then ever, they seem to be in denial, thinking "I am black, I can't be racist". Wake up America! Also, manslaughter is not an option In this case, it is either First Degree murder or he walks, which he will because they cannot prove that this was a premeditated murder. And for the guy who says all murderers should go to jail, I would like to see your ass go to jail after defending yourself when someone is brewing into your house. But what? That's self defense right? Exactly, so is tazing/ shooting someone who is a threat. Maybe someone should hav taught Oscar Grant to listen to an armed cop and keep his hand out of his jacket when an armed officer tells him so, obeyng authority would have saved his life.↓
Pirone said ppl were singling "Lady Cop" from the train at Officer Marisol. "Lady cop" and "Bitch Ass Nigga" are BOTH the titles of Lil Wayne songs…….
…. So… it appears Tony Pirone was ALREADY mad ppl were singing "lady cop" at the female officer. I highly doubt Grant said "bitch ass nigga" to Pirone first– BUT I think Pirone was trying to guess the name of the Lil Wayne song & he got it wrong, pissed about Lil Wayne's ladycop lyrics. I doubt Oscar Grant said it first if no one heard it but Pirone, & its not on anyone's tape. I think Mehserle could have shot on purpose thinking Grant "might" have a weapon… & was just in shock realizing that ppl were taping him. Whatever… it's all conjecture. People– let's not make a mess of our homes please. I don't want to see any more ppl die or go to jail over this right now. We all have kids– but please especially don't mess up Oscar's daughter's community & future. It's not right.↓
Harry Sawari
This is going to be really ugly. The cost will be high. Everyone did something wrong.↓
Harry is right. Everyone involved could have choosen to do things differently. It started with Oscar choosing to resist arrest and cooperate. Maybe Mehserle should have been better trained. But when the adrenal begins to pump and you have your back to people as the officers did, how do they know that they would not have been attacked? Oscar Grant was no choir boy. He knew the routine because he had been there before for selling drugs. It didn't help to kick an officer in the groin. If you are not doing these things then you will not have any reason to be arrested. We are all in this togther and we need to learn to come together and build a better future for our children. Spend less time bitter and having pitty parties and more time helping others and be constructive in life. After the verdict is read …..you each have a choice. Find a positive way in our community to make a difference or go out and riot and maybe you will be the next victim killed and your life will be over. Is it really worth it?↓
dwan mays
I think that this case is sad all around. I live in Hayward, work in Oakland. Mehserle shot and killed a young man, that at worst should have been held overnight for resisting arrest. Did he mean to do it? I doubt it, but he did. Part of the problem here is that everyone is biased. I have a father in law who is a retired police officer and he will defend Mehserle vigorously. I don't agree with him. But the gentleman who wrote this article is obviously biased as well. And the young man yelling in the court room has to know that doing that will not help the case at all. If Mehserle gets acquitted, there will be alot of rioting around her, and I personally find it sad. People are upset that a life was unjustly destroyed, and will turn around and unjustly destroy the lives of business owners and others that will get hurt in the riot. There has to be a better way.↓
yee drones a work. Last time I checked, Obama was commander in chief of the U.S. military and Afghan war, has stepped up drone attacks in the past year, killed alot of civilians by executive order. We should get him to bomb white people back into the stone age so we can bring black civilization like Sierra Leone or Nigeria or Liberia, feel me. Machetes, tires and petrol, mass rapes, eat the hearts of our enemies and drink they blood, let the warlords run it, voudou shit. Get the child soldiers workin.
Stupid fucking niggers! I hope you monkeys do riot and get killed by the police.↓
what happened to blackwhole's posts??? and mine? Are we being censored??↓
You, are you looking for? .. See Qiang head down, do not come in words, that police are afraid, at the moment his family did not get the message, while hospitals and messy Cao Cao, to know not only shootings wound their two policemen.↓
Xu Meng was finally put on his clothes, he was a bit unhappy authentic: Come on, do things still very much hope that we can help settle CEOs, otherwise we'd be dead, dying a virgin when you will not let me now↓

Late night basketball at its finest.
The Sixers have played a little better recently. Will they keep that up tonight or go back to tanking? Don't fail us now, Lucy.
Will the Sixers continue to tank or can they pull an upset over the Indiana Pac-- oh who are we kidding.
For all intents and purposes, the 2012-13 season has been over for quite a while for most Sixers' fans. Yet somehow, there are still 20 games to go. Life after death, indeed.
There are games you want to watch because your team stands a decent chance of winning and there are games you just want to watch for their aesthetic value. This is the latter.
Hawes! Butler! It's the NBA ON TNT!
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come when we shuffle off this mortal coil must give us pause.
DeMarcus Cousins decrees a stately pleasure dome.
Can the revamped Philadelphia 76ers starting lineup make short work of the visiting Washington Wizards? And how many Evan Turner/John Wall comparisons will be made tonight?
With Mike Conley out, Jerryd Bayless will start in his place and draw the assignment of Jrue Holiday. JB is quick and strong and wild. Will be interesting to see how it shakes out.

Roger Clemens threw 3 ⅓ scoreless frames against the Bridgeport Bluefish on Saturday night in his first baseball game since 2007. The 50-year-old Hall-of-Fame hopeful pitched well for the Sugar Land Skeeters, allowing just one hit and striking out two.
Clemens departed with a 1-0 lead, and did not walk any hitters in his debut. His highest-clocked pitch of his 37 total reached 88 miles-per-hour, and after leaving the mound, Clemens was seen in active conversation with Skeeters teammate Scott Kazmir, former major-league pitcher for the Rays and Angels.
After Clemens left the game, Skeeters manager Gary Gaetti, the former major-league third baseman, said he hopes to have the right-hander pitch again, depending on how Clemens feels, and that he would have left Clemens in if the Dayton native had insisted on continuing his start.
Clemens made his major league debut 28 years ago, and notched 4,672 strikeouts in 23 years. He retired from major league baseball with a 354-184 record and 3.12 ERA.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - The University of Texas says former football coach Darrell Royal, who won two national championships and a share of a third, has died. He was 88.
UT spokesman Nick Voinis on Wednesday confirmed Royal's death in Austin. Voinis did not immediately provide further details.
Royal suffered from Alzheimer's disease and recently fell at an assisted living center where he was receiving care.
Royal coached Texas from 1957-1976, won 11 Southwest Conference titles and introduced an innovation known as the wishbone offense to major college football in 1968. He led the Longhorns to two national championships in 1963 and 1969, plus a share of a third in 1970.

Customer Reviews
Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 35 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by mono73 Great help for my coaching job!! This product makes my training much easier and we can do different things. July 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tjcaptain this product is great The only reason i gave it four stars is because it is sort of fragile. A hard shot will break of the laches that are attached to it, but otherwise great. June 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Soccer mom Great value! We have not had the net very long but so far, it is everything people have said. It is easy to set up, is sturdy when shot onto and actually fits back into the bag when taken down. 14 & 10 year old can set it up easily and within minutes. Great for any soccer family! May 29, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bpyelmene All soccer goal The product set up quickly, with minimal need for instructions. The only thing I would like to see differently is a better anchoring system, as strong kicks pull the current stakes. May 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Soccer14 As advertised! This goal was extremely easy to install, even on the first time. My boys use it everyday and it's proving to be very durable. The front stakes don't stay in well but they really aren't needed. overall excellent quality and great price. April 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by theresaann so far so good I have only had the product for a week or so but the kids love it. Seems to hold up well. Very easy to assemble. It should keep them active all spring. April 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by TonyP great value Purchased for soccer crazy kids ages 12 & 7 . set up is relatively easy. my 12 year can set it up by himself now. only had it for 2 weeks now. very convenient as it packs into a small bag approx 8" x 8" x 42" . time will tell how well it holds up, but seems pretty sturdy yet flexible right now. also purchased the 2 yr warranty just in case. Go Get One. January 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by conniemac 5 star Fast setup good quality easy to transport and will recommend product to others. December 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by angie79 Worth the money I have a feeling this will last alot longer than the other goals I have purchased (not from Dick's). The netting is durable and the frame is sturdy enough that it does not tip over even without the spikes. Easy assembly and disassembly, and my son loves it!! September 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mcwtoyz SKLZ Quickster Soccer Net - Great Buy! I had been looking for an inexpensive net for a long time but most are rather cheap in quality at this price range. Not the SKLZ QUICKSTER, it has a really good design that keeps the net taught. It is a really safe net as well for kids who like diving for saves. It is really portable and sets up in minutes. We set it up at a tailgate and it kept the kids occupied for hours, even for the adults. You could pay more for nicer, more robust goals but for us it is perfect and I can use it to help train with my kids on their off days. Can't say enough good things about this product. Only negative is the stakes that it comes with, bend very easily when you hit a rock in the ground. Don't wait, you'll be very happy with this purchase! September 1, 2013

Car insurance has a mission: Keep an accident from turning into financial disaster. Knowing what most drivers buy can be a good place to start.
This post comes from Des Toups at partner site Insurance.com.
When you bought your last car insurance policy, how did you decide how much coverage to buy?
Sure, there are generally accepted guidelines out there. Homeowners need at least $100,000 in bodily injury liability protection, because a large, valuable asset like a house is an easy lawsuit target if you don't have enough to cover your victim's hospital bills.
Or maybe you own nothing and have no savings – nothing you could lose. Then you might go for the legal minimum in your state.
There's a lot of room in between, though, and seeing the choices other drivers in your situation make can be a good guideline when you shop for car insurance yourself.
Digital alerts can let you know immediately when your card is used for a big purchase.
By now, just about everyone knows to guard the digits that are the keys to so many parts of our lives -- Social Security numbers, checking account numbers and credit card numbers. But short of locking up a credit card as soon as you get it and never using it, there's no way to be absolutely sure it will not be used fraudulently. After that, your best hope is to catch it quickly.
A credit card fraud victim, a woman we'll call Shawn, recently discovered that digital alerts can save the day. She had her card set to send her an email notification if her Chase Visa was used for a purchase of $200 or more. She had those alerts set up for two uneventful years. And so when she learned on a recent night that $437 had been charged on her card, had been charged on her card, she immediately called Chase.
It turned out the charge was for a Jet Ski rental, which made no sense to her, because it was after dark -- about 9 p.m. -- when the alert came through. But then she learned that the card was used for an in-person purchase at a beach in California, where it was close to 6 p.m. And yet her card was in her wallet.
She's not sure what happened if or when the person who used her card number tried to return the watercraft. Nor does she know how or when her card data was taken. But this she knows: "I am very careful with my accounts." If it could happen to her, it can happen to anyone.
Crowdfunding is all the rage. Here's the skinny on seven sites promising to help you raise cash. We'll also tell you how to improve your chances of success.
This post comes from Maryalene LaPonsie at partner site Money Talks News.
Want to swim with the dolphins but don't have the bank account to justify that type of splurge? Or would you prefer to save the dolphins rather than swim with them?
Perhaps you'd like to start a company selling dolphin-shaped hats?
Don't let your lack of cash stop you. Today, you have many options to ask family, friends and even total strangers for their help in funding your dreams.
Enter the world of crowdfunding.
Whether it's to fund your small business or get that killer wedding gift, crowdfunding sites exist for virtually every reason. The sites differ on the details, but all work in the same way. You put out a request, and the masses decide whether to donate money to your cause.
Keep reading for a list of notable crowdfunding sites, plus learn some tips on how to up your chances of success.
Knowing the implications of car insurance while away at school should be on your college prep checklist.
In their song, "Wide Open Spaces," the Dixie Chicks sing about a Dad yelling, "Check the oil!" as he drops his daughter off at college. This is good advice. Here are seven more tips from auto experts for students taking their cars to college:
1. Keep your car in good repair
"Many students have a long ride from their hometown to their college campus so they need to make sure that their vehicle is up-to-date on oil changes and other required maintenance so as to avoid breaking down before they even arrive at college," says William Van Tassel, manager of driver training programs at AAA National. "Having a back-up plan such as a AAA membership which includes roadside assistance also helps."
Technology will soon allow you to control who uses your card, and when -- helping you fight fraud.
This post comes from Christine DiGangi at partner site Credit.com.
Emerging technology gives consumers the ability to turn their credit and debit cards on and off through a smartphone app, a capability that can not only help families and businesses control how authorized users shop with the card but also, and perhaps more importantly, help prevent card fraud.
One of the companies developing this tool is Ondot Systems, which works with payment processors to make the technology available to banks and their customers. The on-off function, in addition to other control preferences, is available to cardholders through their bank or credit union's mobile app. Some financial services companies are working to develop their own technologies as well.
A remote control for your credit card
"The basic idea is very simple," said Rachna Ahlawat, founder and executive vice president of products at Ondot Systems.
A federal survey also found that only 18 percent of Americans close to retirement age plan to retire on a set date and not work again.
This post comes from Krystal Steinmetz at partner site Money Talks News.
Many Americans are not prepared for retirement. While that may be no surprise to you, this might: One in 5 people who are nearing retirement age have no money saved.
That alarming statistic was highlighted in a recent report by the Federal Reserve Board (.pdf file) on the economic well-being of U.S. households. According to a report press release:
Thirty-one percent of non-retired respondents reported having no retirement savings or pension, including 19 percent of those ages 55 to 64. Additionally, almost half of adults were not actively thinking about financial planning for retirement, with 24 percent saying they had given only a little thought to financial planning for their retirement and another 25 percent saying they had done no planning at all.
So why do so many Americans lack a retirement savings account? The survey found that many young people haven't started saving for retirement yet. But it goes beyond that, the report said.
Fed up with your current position or thinking about jumping ship for a more lucrative opportunity? Here are a few reasons why that may not be such a bad idea.
This post comes from Allison Martin at partner site Money Talks News.
Convinced that you should remain loyal to a job, even if you absolutely loathe the thought of being there each day? Maybe a better opportunity is at your fingertips, but you fear the long-term consequences of making the move.
It may be time to adjust your mindset: The days of hiring managers frowning upon the resumes of those with cameos in the workplace are coming to an end in a number of industries.
A press release about a recent survey by CareerBuilder said, "More than half (55 percent) of employers surveyed said they have hired a job-hopper and nearly one-third (32 percent) of all employers said they have come to expect workers to job hop."
According to the survey, the industries where job hopping is most common are:
A reader is frustrated because at age 21, she can't get a credit card. She thinks it's because of her lack of credit history. I think it's something else.
This post comes from Stacy Johnson at partner site Money Talks News.
There's lots of talk these days about how to improve your credit history and score. With good reason: If you want to borrow money, they're a critical part of the equation. But they're not the entire equation.

One of the best kept secrets in
Southern California! Delicious food, great service and terrific entertainment and dancing while you eat!"
Dined on 8/30/2014
Their lobster mac & cheese changed
my life but the "ambiance" was a bit elderly. Great food but NOT a good romantic spot for anyone under 50. When patrons from another table began complaining loudly about their arthritis it was time for the cheque. My younger date was not impressed. Service was good though."
Dined on 8/23/2014
Our server Marty was amazing. He
really made my girlfriend and my night special. He has exceptional customer service skills and is very nice and friendly. We will definitely be returning for another special occasion. The food was good and the view is breathtaking!"
Dined on 8/20/2014
Took my friend here for dinner who
was visiting from Paris. I wanted to return the favor since she took me to Le Georges in Paris when I visited her. My reservation was for 8:15 and was told to go to the bar while they prepare our table. It took 2 follow-ups and 30 min before we were showed our table. We noticed that a table by the window was available and requested if we can have it instead. We were told we couldn't since it was reserved for 4 and there were only 3 of us. I told them our table could obviously accommodate 4 as well. To make the story short we didn't get moved and later somebody came to apologize to us because the table by the window was empty the rest of the evening. I made them know how I felt based on my tip."
Dined on 8/16/2014
We had the best service ever,
Marty is absolutely amazing!!!"
Dined on 8/16/2014
We were really early but they
accommodated us. Our fabulous server Steve made it an unforgettable experience. Rib eye and red snapper were delicious. Great atmosphere, great food. I will definitely visit again."
Dined on 8/13/2014
Cuisine and wine are little pricey
for what is served. View is spectacular however!"
Dined on 8/8/2014
We celebrated our Anniversary
night here. We started with drinks at the bar and appetizers. Then moved to a romantic table with booth seating facing the water. We had the seafood platter that was Fabulous! It was a WOW! My favorite was the lobster and tuna! We shared the asparagus soup. We shared the duck breast entree which made a perfect ending. We were too full to move. Lastly,we were brought a surprised anniversary dessert. The scenic view is so romantic and calming. It was the perfect meal and date!"
Dined on 8/5/2014
Our dinner was very good with the
exception of the sundae we ordered for desert. The whipped cream had a granular texture. The entertainment was fantastic provided by a band called the Boyz and the Beez. A fantastic restaurant for that special occasion."
Dined on 8/2/2014
Service was impeccable. Food was
very tasty, expertly prepared with a fantastic presentation. Our visit to The Sky Room was prompted by Dine LA and it was an exceptional way to experience the restaurant and will result in our return."
Dined on 7/26/2014
A great place for a special
occasion. Pricey. Food is great. Great view."
Dined on 7/26/2014
This is my go to place when I want
to have good food, friendly service and amazing ambiance."
Dined on 7/25/2014
Came here for DineLA and went in
with high expectations seeing that it was a $45 menu. I think the money was more for the ambiance&service, rather than the food itself. I think evenly, some plates were outstanding, but others were not great at all... not even memorable. Maybe it was the DineLA menu that provided mediocre selections, but it is a place I'd come back for the view and service."
Dined on 7/25/2014
Been to The Sky Room a few times.
Had dinner there on the dineLA menu. The Sky Room has become one of the few restaurants I feel that I can order anything off of the menu and know that I'll love it. They had a calamari appetizer I hadn't seen before. It was a real fine. I'd always had the crab cakes before, but the calamari is my new favorite. The salmon has been cooked perfectly every time we've ordered it. Slightly crispy on top, soft, flaky and delicious throughout. Some work was being done to the building in preparation of the building's 90th anniversary coming up. The manager came around to the table during our meal to say hello, chat a bit, and answer questions about the dishes we'd ordered. I really like this place."
Dined on 7/25/2014
The drinks were fantasic, the food
was delicious... But a tad bit salty, and that's coming from a person who loves salty food. The view and desserts were disappointing. There is no view of the sunset, it makes no difference where you are seated. If you have a view of the ocean, there is no opportunity to watch the sunset. Food was great and our waiter Jerry offered great suggestions. I enjoyed everything but the dessert. We boxed it up and took it home thinking we'd enjoy it more when we weren't so full... But it just isn't of good quality. The bread pudding is rubbery, which makes me think it was reheated in a microwave. For the price paid, I expected edible desserts."
Dined on 7/20/2014
The minute you enter the building,
you know it's going to be a special dining experience! The food, the view, the cosmopolitan, and the service were all top notch. I don't think I've had duck that I truly enjoyed every bite. Oh, and the desserts are not to be missed. Dine LA was an excellent way to try this establishment; I will be back soon!"
Dined on 7/20/2014
Beautiful views, nice Art Deco
interior. Great wait staff. Crab cakes were excellent, ravioli perfect, bread is outstanding and the scallops over lobster potatoes were divine. Best restaurant in Long Beach."
Dined on 7/20/2014
We have been to the Sky Room over
the years for several special occasion's, and this was my husbands 70 B.day. We went early to have drinks upstairs, only to find it was VERY dirty. We stayed for the view only. Our sever was excellent but my dinner wasn't to my surprise. I ordered the Game Hen it came very dry and the Surprise rice was also. I shared my dismay with the server thinking she would bring the Mg. but didn't. I have always been very happy to tell our friends about the wonderful food, atmosphere, bar service. This is the one time I can't. Your Upstairs really needs a washing."
Dined on 7/20/2014
This was my second time coming
back to The Sky Room for DineLA of all things. As I recall I had the waiter Marty last year. He's a fantastic waiter and his selection for wines versus the on menu wine pairing was much better. Not to mention Marty is a character which made the dining experience bar none as being one of the best I've had in a while. The Scallops and lobster mash which my significant other had was probably the best dish that night only followed by the very filling bread pudding I had. I would most definitely recommend this restaurant to anybody looking for a scenic as well as a memorable experience."

Great view of Long Beach and good
service. The roast duck was excellent. Creme brulee and fresh berry Napoleon were wonderful desserts. They even have live singer after 8pm."

Decided to dine during DineLA and
loved the experience! The food was delish!! The stuffed calamari is a must try, the scallops were cooked perfectly and the bison short ribs were also so yummy! Desserts were delish also!! The live band and the view made the experience just more awesome! Then the cherries on top, was the fact that we could go to the rooftop bar and have drinks and dance! Our server was so funny and had great pointers! Valet parking available"

Everyone from the moment you walk
in the building was very cordial. The elevator attendant was very friendly and extra attentive. Our waiter was pleasant and efficient. The views were breathtaking and the setting was romantic. It was my wife's and my first time there and we both loved it. We'll definitely be back. Thank you!!"

We dined here to celebrate my
girlfriend's birthday. I requested window seating and was happily accommodated by the staff. I had an Old Fashioned and she had a sort of Blackberry Mojito - both were delicious. My girlfriend ordered off the Dine LA menu and got crab-stuffed calamari, scallops, duck, and creme brulee. She was pleased with all each dish. I ordered off the regular menu getting lobster mac n cheese and filet mignon - both were amazing! The atmosphere is fun and different. I felt like I had traveled back in time to the early 90s (when I suspect they last remodeled). While one might argue that an update is necessary, I'd argue that the restaurant would lose some nostalgia. All in all it was a great restaurant and we'll be back!"
Dined on 7/18/2014
The reason I came here was for the
setting (date night). I wasn't expecting great food because I knew this would be a place that is known for the setting rather than te food. The places is in a desperate need of an update along with the food. For dinner I had the braised short ribs. The dish was flavorless. Braised short ribs are supposed to be tender and this was not. Service was subpar as well. It was difficult to find our server when trying to get a menu, water or just ordering. I was rather disappointed given the price point."
Dined on 7/18/2014
Came here with the gf and two
others. We went during Dine LA. Was expecting small portions to try and wasn't sure what to expect from the food. I'm was surprised and impressed with their portion size and quality of food. Everything from appetizer to dessert was delicious. Everyone agreed, not only myself. I would definitely come back."
Dined on 7/18/2014
They are doing some renovations so
entrance was all in construction. Elevators are old. Ambience is OK, nothing special. view is nice at night. At day time it's just a view of harbor. I kinda expected a beach view but got a harbor view. Service was OK. One waiter was obnoxious, making jokes about me and my husband's anniversary and asking why we don't wear our rings - repeatedly. Food was OK. Tasty but pretty pricey and not that good for the cost."
Dined on 7/17/2014
Upon entrance, my date and I were
lost in the long hallway walk to the hidden elevator, which later we were told the person whose job was to direct patrons, she was on break.We arrived a few minutes early, however, on our way to be seated, the hostess got into what would have been a very lengthy argument with another patron if I had not demanded immediate seating. The food and service was awful, my date's food was not cooked properly, and had to be sent back, and my food was extremely salty, and cold. Don't think I'll be dining again. Very unsatisfactory food and service. How disappointing, as this was my date's birthday, and she expected a much better dining experience."
Dined on 7/12/2014
Everything was great! the food,
the service the staff was very helpful. I really enjoyed myself."
Dined on 7/12/2014
Dined here for first time on
7/11/2014.All employees including first-floor receptionist, elevator attendant, restaurant receptionist, waiter, and assistant waiters were all exceptional. It was very refreshing to see such a compassion shown by all to ensure pleasant dining experience. I will definitely go back for another experience soon!"

I took my fiance to the sky room
for her birthday. The waiter was pleasant and the food was great. Best of all, the view made for a very special evening"
Dined on 7/6/2014
We made a reservation and we were
still made to wait for 30 minutes. We checked in and was told to wait at the bar for our table. Everybody else waiting had been given tables after 30 minutes except us. We were the only ones left in the bar waiting for our table. Finally, a lady asked for the last name of the person who made the reservation and that's when we were led to our table, they obviously forgot about us."

Towering over downtown Long Beach
and nearby Pike, Aquarium, Queen Mary and yes 4th of July firework spectacular. We love this place. It is on the pricey side but for a special occasion you cant go wrong."
Dined on 7/4/2014
A group of five of us dined here
on Saturday night when we had the opportunity to be there for the ballroom style dancing to the live music. Our server was energetic and lots of fun, making great recommendations and guiding us through the evening at our own pace. We brought two bottles of our own cellared wine ($25 apiece corkage) to have with dinner. Everyone was delighted with their cocktails, salads, and choices of entrees. One of us had the filet, another had the lamb, two of us had the black cod, and I had the duck. The accompaniments to each entree was thoughtful and enhanced each dish. The band started at 8:00 and the dance floor started to fill with fabulous diversity. This was our first time here, and won't be our last."

I visited Sky Room after about a 5
year hiatus from the place. During this time the surrounding establishments in the area have certainly improved and the variety of choices is far greater than in the past. I'd have to say Sky Room has more than kept up, they have improved the menu and quality, and the service and wait time is better than ever. Highly recommend to visit for some excellent faire, incredible views, and pleasant ambience."

Excellent food while enjoying an
awesome view of the harbor."

Well I can start by saying thanks
to Pierre he did a great job in accommodating us due to the fact that we arrived a few minutes late... I wanted this day to be pretty special for my hubby ...im going to start with the elevator guy funny and pretty awesome.. Are waitress was the best ever .... Racquel ♥ love ya ..... I recommend this place ...5 stars the lobster Mac ..yummy oooh one more thing there restroom decor love it"
Dined on 6/20/2014
The view from the Sky Room is
great and the ambience is also -- original art deco. The service is always good, not overly intrusive but attentive. The wine list is extensive - and expensive. The food is always nicely prepared -- but also at the top of the price charts -- and the menu is pretty much standard dinner-house fare. But the package is really nice -- a fun special occasion place. If they would trim the prices a bit, we would come here more than a couple of times a year."

How do I.... ?

Old Board Is kickin Butt
It seems like there is a lot more posts on the Old Board lately than on this New board. Every time I check the old board it has been getting more & more posts and this new board is getting less attention day by day.
Then came Bronson
The NEW Board is still Harder to use than the Old board.
I guess that part of the reason for the Old Board being more filled is that most of us are still more used to the Old Board format. That makes it still easier to use. This NEW one takes some gettin' used to! I guess time and use will be the deciding factors for Dennis
"Save The Possums...Collect The Whole Set"
"Tennessee Sun-Dried Possum...Heaven In A Can"
I don't know how many total posts went onto this board yesterday, but in about 10 days the total is 554. Yesterday there were 5 threads started, 4 about tractors and one about the forum. Yesterday the old forum got a total of 51 posts. There were 7 threads started, 5 on tractors and 2 about the forum.
So I wouldn't say that either one is swamping the other right now.
In the 10 days this board has had one major problem. I haven't kept score on the old one, but it cratered at least once in the same time. Who knows how many times it would have if it had all the traffic. As far as I am concerned, Dennis can pull the plug on the old one any time.
I personally have no problems with using either the old board or this new board, But I hope the old board isn`t pulled for awhile because I enjoy reading both. There is a lot of good reading on the old board that is posted by folks that are still having trouble with this new fangled board. They both have there pros & cons.
Then came Bronson
I don't want Dennis to feel obligated to keep both working. Anyone that can't use this board still has the ATIS board available. It works about the same as the old one here.
I read both of these boards and ATIS, and will probably continue to do so as long as they are all around. Each one has it's advantages. The original Farmallcub.com seemed a little more casual, I think mainly because of the way the posts were displayed in a tree form. I really like this one because I can see at a glance which topics have posts I haven't read yet, without having to scroll down the page a long ways, which is great since I frequently only have a limited amount of time. I also like being able to see several posts on a topic at one time without having to load each one individually, another time saver on a slow connection.
"The Constitution is not an instrument for the government
to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the
government lest it come to dominate our lives and interests." Patrick Henry
OH BOY! I've been away for TOO long...what is this ? I loved the old board so much, the best display of threads I had ever seen on any board...I'll get used to this - eventually.
Hope everyone is doing fine...my Cub is up for the winter other than an occasional run around the yard and it is doing FINE
I (almost) can't wait for the grass to grow

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Michael Vick threw for 218 yards and one touchdown, ran for 74 yards and a score, and the Eagles beat Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts 26-24 Sunday.
The Eagles (5-3) are 12-0 after a bye since Andy Reid became coach in 1999. They hadn't beaten Manning in three previous tries.
The Colts (5-3) had to make a quick turnaround after beating Houston on Monday night. It certainly seemed the Eagles were the fresher team, especially early.
The Colts lost wide receiver Austin Collie after a hard - illegal - hit by Kurt Coleman forced him to leave on a stretcher in the second quarter.
Collie lay on the ground for several minutes as the crowd fell silent. Soon afterward, the announcement came he had movement and was alert.

quickest way to send data to javascript?
I'm creating a php website which uses javascript (jquery) to draw a google map and place up to about 500 markers.
Currently, php creates an xml file for javascript to read and place markers accordingly (loosely based on this tutorial -http://www.sitepoint.com/google-maps-api-jquery/)
I have < 2meg connection, but it is quick enough on latest browsers. IE 8 is REALLY slow to both draw initial map and sometimes gives up before placing markers.
Tried ditching the xml idea and using httpRequest instead, to get the info real-time from php. It works, but the markers appear really slowly.
Just wondering if there is a quicker way to pass the information to javascript?
Each marker needs id, longitude, latitude and title.
php currently uses a session to store an array of place ids (the result of a search) and then looks up other info in mysql.
Would appreciate any advice on the best way of getting my marker info into javascript.

England should drop Ashton, says Guscott (From Enfield Independent)

Former England centre Jeremy Guscott calls for Stuart Lancaster to drop Saracens winger Chris Ashton
Updated 11:21am Wednesday 22nd January 2014 in Sport
Former England centre Jeremy Guscott believes Stuart Lancaster should drop Saracens winger Chris Ashton ahead of the Six Nations.
Guscott, who won 65 caps for England between 1989 and 1999, says Ashton's lack of tries and poor defence means Gloucester's Jonny May and Bath's Anthony Watson should be given a chance.
Guscott told BBC Sport: "He (Ashton) is recognised more as a poor defender than a try-scorer at the moment.
"Just like a goalscorer in football, if you are not scoring, then the questions start, and it becomes a question of when do you drop him?"
He continued: "Watson has pace, a good step, is fresh, keen and ambitious. May is also in form and inexperienced, but these young guys have no fear and carry no baggage.
"I'd give Ashton a break. It would make him keener and he is still scoring tries for Saracens.
"If the younger guys don't work out, things could quickly change."

LEWIS — Three people were injured in a two-car accident in Lewis Thursday.
Shortly before 3:09 p.m., a car driven by Aimee L. Adams, 36, of Lewis was stopped in traffic on U.S. Route 9 in the Town of Lewis when a car driven by Jaime Leigh Thwaits, 31, of AuSable Forks struck the back of Adams's vehicle, Lewis-based State Police said.
Adams and her two passengers, whose names were not available, were transported to the Elizabethtown Community Hospital, police said.
Adams's condition and that of the other two people transported was not available Saturday.
Thwaits was ticketed for following too closely.

At first glimpse this mountain biking face plant doesn't appear to be that spectacular. But the appearance of a bloody face at the :16 mark improves things dramatically, while the slow-motion scream in agony at the end of the video is easily the highlight. It's like a surprisingly smooth finish to a wine that you thought was too young at first. Does anyone get that metaphor? No? Well then, it's like a nice Pabst chaser after a shot of El Chico. There. Adjusted to fit the demographic.

Spring 2013 and the Mouse River rising in the region have caused a certain level of uneasiness for many.
After all, this is the first time since the flood of 2011 that the Mouse has been up like this.
The river's current level through Minot does grab your attention, and city officials say they're keeping track of what's going on.
City Public Works Director Dan Jonasson says each day he travels the river's course through Minot checking the levee system and observing the water.
While 2011 was a total disaster...it did provide information on how the city's protection system handles various water levels.
(Dan Jonasson - Minot Public Works Director) "It gives me an easier feeling. After 2011 because I know when we start talking 2000 or 3000 CFS there really is no issue as far as levees or it going out of the levees at all."

A two-year-old child was killed by a hit-and-run driver in Minot this evening.
