Watch the Messages from 2014 Leadership Ascent
Couldn't make it to Leadership Ascent? Watch these videos for the complete message from Dr. Coe:
Session 1 [posted above]
Session 2
2014 Recap
This last May, many of us took part in our 3rd annual Leadership Ascent. It was a day to slow down, hit pause, and reorient around the most important thing about us – our personal relationship with Jesus. There's a lot vying for attention in our lives – even [or especially!] the good gifts we've been given from our God. As we lead careers, relationships, families, and RH ministries, we must do so out of a place of deep connection with Jesus. We must establish and embrace a posture of intimacy with Jesus. Not only do we need this for ourselves, but our church needs to see this modeled as well.
For the second year in a row, we were joined by Dr. John Coe, director of the Institute for Spiritual Formation at Biola University. Dr. Coe's message, "Knowing the Heart" introduced us to the hidden heart, discussed why spiritual change can be so difficult and slow, and gave us tools to open our hearts to God and let Him begin the process of transformation. Some specific highlights from Dr. Coe:
- The Christian faith is foremost about the heart – what is in the heart determines the whole of life.
- The heart can be impregnable and slow to change – there is a hidden unconscious heart that most of us are unaware of where sin habits are rooted
- God opens our hearts and begins the process of transformation by love and truth – we must "sit amongst the weeds with the Master Gardener" and let Jesus teach and change us.
- Understanding and practicing honest prayer is fundamental in opening the heart to God – prayer is not a place to be good; it's a place to be honest
- Prayers of the psalms, lament, anger, and/or silence may be appropriate – learning these different prayers equips us to pray honestly through a range of emotions
Our personal relationship with Jesus is not something to focus on just one Saturday in May. As leaders we should regularly be with Him, knowing His voice, trusting His love, and walking in His ways. While each campus prepares to embrace this call in varying ways this fall, you, RH's leaders, have the opportunity to get out ahead in the coming weeks. Starting with a guided spiritual retreat, help set the stage for what's sure to be an exciting ministry year across all five RH campuses.

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Austin Rivers punctuated his first North Carolina-Duke game with one of the biggest shots in the rivalry's history.
For an encore, the freshman wants to bring his fourth-ranked Blue Devils another ACC regular-season title.
The No. 1 seed in the conference tournament once again is on the line Saturday night when Duke (26-4, 13-2) faces the sixth-ranked Tar Heels (26-4, 13-2) in a matchup of Atlantic Coast Conference co-leaders.
It's the 12th time since Mike Krzyzewski came to Duke in 1980 that they will meet with some type of ACC championship on the line -- either the regular-season title or in the tournament final. The Blue Devils are 6-5 in those situations.
Rivers says he expects the Tar Heels' best shot after his buzzer-beater won the first meeting.

It is nearly time for the Virginia's 2013 General Assembly to begin, and Reston-area legislators want to know what is on your mind.
Del. Ken Plum and Sen. Janet Howell will hold their annual pre-session public meeting at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday at Reston Community Center at Hunters Woods.
Come with your questions and comments for Plum and Howell. The legislative session begins on Jan. 9.
Plum is the co-sponsor of pre-filed house legislation that prohibits discrimination of any state employee for race, gender, medical conditions and sexual orientation.
Howell is the chief sponsor of senate bills that loosen restrictions for absentee voting could factor in child support calculations. She is also a c o-sponsor of the senate bill barring discrimination of state employees.
After the Sandy Hook shooting last month, Howell said she will reintroduce a bill that would close the commonwealth's gun show loophole, which allows people to buy firearms at gun shows without a background check.

While out on a Saturday night, some friends recomended this place, that I had not heard of. Boy was I surprised by the selection! I initially thought that we were entering a typical college bar and even had to wait in a short line out in a light snow. There was a live band of exceptional quality doing originals of neo-soul/dance tunes, which was great. Between the beers and the music, this was a nice find. I don't live in the Minnesota area, but on future trips back, this will definitely be one of my stops to hit even earlier!

The Nomad is one of the better beer bars on the west bank in Minneapolis. They have 2 patios, one for hanging out and one for playing bocce ball. They have a fireplace on the hangout side for fall and early spring. Usually about 20 taps, all craft. About the same number of bottles. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly, never had a bad experience with that. Strong local offerings, one of the few places in the cities that regularly has Steel Toe on tap. Local bands play in the evenings, and you can play pool in the afternoon.

The bar is funky with a pretty good selection of beer but this place rocks because it has two fantastic bocce courts out back. Nothing better than drinking a great beer and playing bocce! The location is in an interesting part of town. Also has a great fire pit. Had a great time.

So many people who live in Minneapolis rave about this place. It's a good place to go with a large group of friends. They have bocce ball outside and an oversized Jenga game inside. It kind of feels like they just happen to have pretty good beer, and not necessarily like it's a focus of the bar.

This was the second stop of our Cedar Avenue section of our pub crawl.
Nomad was a decent place, but it definitely had the feel of a borderline sports bar. Big "hi-def" televisions on the walls. The atmosphere was welcoming but nothing noteworthy. Old time feel of the dark wood and the like.
Service was decent. The bartender offered a small taste of something I inquired about, but I chose to just try the whole thing. The selection was about what I would expect for a beer bar. They had some beers that I had never tried before which is always a plus. Which I guess is a segue or lack of one into the selection. We didn't have any food. The selection was a little better than the Triple Rock social club, but the atmosphere was more of a "passing through" type of crowd than a bunch of regulars.

I stopped here on my way to the Dome to catch a Twins game. I walked into a friendly local pub with a great selection of beers, and felt right at home. I had a few Surly's on tap and was asked to play bocce ball with some of the locals. After talking to the owner Todd he informed me that they had several firkin events thought the year. Service was great, a total WIN!!!! This was a huge find, and if you want a diamond in the ruff, this is it. Thanks for the great time and I'll be back. And I'll have to catch one of the music events.
And if you ever you put that golf tourney together, please post it, I'll be waiting.

Vinyl vs canvas seats
I'm looking to replace my seat for my restoration. What seat would be the best a vinyl seat or canvas and what color is preferred? Anyone know what was stock?
Re: Vinyl vs canvas seats
In '51, the original was silver canvas.
Re: Vinyl vs canvas seats
The canvas is more forgiving on the posterior -- vinyl well just think hot summer day -- car ... should answer that question right off The silver canvas will look a lot nicer.

Re: Vinyl vs canvas seats
When I restored my Super A I went with the black vinyl seat because they didn't offer black canvas. (The seats were black in 47-48-49ish) I like the vinyl because it is easy to clean. From a distance you can't tell it's vinyl....

Re: Vinyl vs canvas seats
I have canvas and vinyl seat covers on my cubs. For looks the vinyl ones are nice, but on a cold day they are really cold when you first set down on them, and on a hot day, if ou drive them very long your posterior will sure get sweaty. For daily use I prefer the canvas.

Thanks for the replies I think silver canvas it will be!

One of two construction workers injured in a partial wall collapse at the Westfield Hawthorn Mall in north suburban Vernon Hills late Thursday night has died.
Lake County Coroner Robert Rudd confirmed Friday morning that one of the workers had died from his injuries.
Officials have not yet released the name of the man, but Rudd said more information would be released following an autopsy today.
The accident occurred about 11 p.m. Thursday night as workers were demolishing a portion of the former Ruby Tuesday restaurant, which is adjacent to the southwest entrance of the mall. Three workers were struck by falling concrete while removing an outer layer of brick from an exterior wall of the structure, Vernon Hills police said in a statement.
Two of the workers were taken to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville, where the 25-year-old Palos Park man was later pronounced dead, police said. The other worker suffered only minor injuries.
Countryside Fire Protection District Chief Jeff Steingart said both men had been uncovered from the rubble by co-workers when fire and rescue personnel arrived at the scene, Steingart said.
The nighttime work was part of a project to replace the former Ruby Tuesday with a new Maggiano's restaurant.
"At this point there is no indication that this is other than a tragic accident," Vernon Hills village manager Michael Allison said in the statement.
"Our deepest condolences and prayers go out to the family of the deceased," Allison said.
An investigation into the accident is being conducted by the Vernon Hills Police Department and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has been notified.

The #MACtion continues!
Jordan Lynch and the Huskies grabbed a 27-24 lead (their first lead since 3-0) on a fourth down touchdown rush by Cameron Stingily midway through the third period. The score capped a 17-play, 85-yard drive that took more than five and a half minutes. Lynch, on a third and ten, broke a huge tackle in the backfield, and somehow turned a 5-yard loss into a first down run that allowed the drive to continue.
On their next drive the Cardinals countered with a 12 play 80 yard drive of their own. NIU defensive lineman, George Rainey, stuffed a run on third and one at the NIU 2-yard line to force a Ball State field goal - tying the game at 27. Ball State's defense was able to stop NIU on their next drive, forcing a punt with less than two minutes to go.
The Cardinals will start the 4th quarter with a third and four from thier own 49-yard line.

HOUSTON -- It was a harrowing ordeal for three people in Montrose who woke up to find violent thugs in their bedrooms.
The three men taunted and terrorized them.
The home invasion happened around 12:30 a.m. Monday in the 1600 block of Hawthorne Street, near Westheimer and Dunlavy.
Now the victims are sharing the details because they want the criminals caught.
"I was terrified. I was absolutely mortified. It's one of the worst nightmares, fears of being a woman," said Christina.
Christina believes the suspects pried opened a locked door on the first floor of the fourplex.
She was about to fall asleep when she heard footsteps walking toward her bedroom. She then watched her door slowly open and three strangers walk in.
"They yelled for me to get out of bed. I started to scream. He said, if I scream, he's going to shoot me," Christina said.
Christina said the three men had bandannas covering their faces and each pointed a gun at her body.
"I asked them if they were going to hurt us. He said, 'I don't know. It depends what you got to give me,'" Christina said.
The gunmen told Christina that three additional men were waiting outside.
They then forced her down the hall to her roommates' bedroom.
"I woke up to getting hit in the face with a pistol," said roommate Chris.
Chris was in bed with his girlfriend when the suspects stormed in. The men pistol whipped him over the face and head with force.
"I just took the being attacked by a bear approach, just play dead," Chris said. "We gave them what they wanted. We didn't freak out."
According to Christina, the criminals repeatedly kicked two dogs because they were barking.
All three victims were tied up with computer wires. They were then taunted with a knife after socks were stuffed in their mouths.
The real life nightmare wasn't over yet.
"[One of them] was grabbing my boobs and butt, my front and telling us what they were going to do. They were being very vulgar," Christina said. "He said, 'I'm going to let ya'll know which one I'm going to take with us tonight.'"
The thieves stole Chris' white Chevy Silverado, Christina's purse, musical equipment, two laptops and all three of the victims' cell phones.
The criminals shook Chris' hand before they left and pistol whipped him one more time. The suspects then vanished in his truck.
The first thing Chris did was plead for help on Facebook. He wrote, "I've been robbed. They stole our cell phones. Please call 911", and the post went on to mention the address.
"I realize once I posted it on Facebook that any response was going to go right to my phone which they had stolen," Chris said.
The victims didn't know how far the men had gone or if they would come back. They took a chance and ran over to a nearby bar to call police.
Chris returned to the scene of the crime later Monday afternoon with a police escort for protection.
The roommates aren't sure why they were targeted and believe the suspects may have been watching them.
HPD is searching for leads in the case. If you have any information call Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.

As a father of triplets, Doug was fully involved in raising his sons and this included story time. Doug's wife Jane, read to the boys, while Doug made up the stories he told them, during the early years of their lives.
"Three out of three" is an attempt to capture the essence of the stories that were told to the brothers as the original versions have somewhat faded with time; after all the triplets were born in 1979 and they now have children of their own.
As first time author/ illustrator he has found writing this book a rewarding experience and now has more books for the series in mind.
Now retired, Doug taught practical art for 25 years and is now able to enjoy creating his own works. Writing and illustrating these stories has enabled him to fulfil the long held dream of being an illustrator. This book has enabled Doug to combine his passion for natural history with a touch of fantasy.

News: Mos Def Wants That Ol' Thing Back, "I'm Retiring The Mos Def Name After 2011"
Wednesday, Sep 7, 2011 8:02AM
Rap veteran Mos Def has revealed plans to retire his rap alias by the end of 2011, saying he has lived up to its title and is ready to move forward.
Mos also said he no longer wanted to balance his alias and government name, Dante Terrell Smith.
"I'm retiring the Mos Def name after 2011. I'm actually doing it. Yasiin. That's it," he revealed. "Mos Def is a name that I built and cultivated over the years, it's a name that the streets taught me, a figure of speech that was given to me by the culture and by my environment and I feel I've done quite a bit with that name and it's time to expand and move on. Also, I didn't want to have to deal with having any moniker or any separation between the self that I see and know myself as." (Sucker Free)
In May, The Clipse's Malice detailed plans to get rid of his rap alias.
"I'm not a malicious person, and I don't really like answering to that. I know that people that follow The Clipse or follow my music, they know Malice, so I understand that, I get that," Malice said in an interview. "But you don't want to be under any moniker that's of evil intent, that's not you. I come to more believe that there's so much power in the tongue. The power of the tongue is life and death, so I believe if you are what you fall under whether it's in your subconscious or not. It's just me trying to clean up a little bit. But I haven't thought of that name yet. So Malicious is what it is right now." (Ruby Hornet TV)
Last year, Def made headlines for linking up with Kanye West's G.O.O.D. Music.
The Brooklyn MC and West talk about the deal and break down their musical relationship in the October issue of XXL, which comes out on Tuesday and features a Kanye cover story. And Mos Def makes an appearance on West's G.O.O.D. Friday single "Lord, Lord, Lord," along with Swizz Beatz, Raekwon and singer Charlie Wilson. Mos' decision to join G.O.O.D. Music follows the release of his last album, The Ecstatic, on indie label Downtown Records in 2009. The rapper/actor and Kanye first collaborated on the Chicago MC's College Dropout, for "Two Words," and then again on "Drunk and Hot Girls" from (MTV)
As of late, the rapper-turned-actor has filmed episodes for the upcoming Showtime series, "Dexter."
When the Showtime series returns this fall for a sixth season, there will be plenty of fresh blood, including Edward James Olmos, Colin Hanks, and Mos Def. The rapper-actor plays Brother Sam, a reformed criminal who runs an auto-body shop. He crosses paths with our resident serial killer when one of his employees comes under investigation. Says executive producer Scott Buck, ''Dexter is unconvinced that Brother Sam is a man who found God and changed his violent ways.'' (Entertainment Weekly)

Beluga Sturgeon Huso huso
The beluga is both the largest species of sturgeon and the largest European fish to enter fresh water. Stouter and heavier than the European sturgeon, the beluga sturgeon has a more triangular snout with a very wide mouth. Four long barbels hang from the underside of the snout, reaching almost to the mouth. Like all sturgeon, the beluga has an asymmetrical, sharklike tail with the backbone extending into the large upper lobe. Reputed to be the most expensive fish in the world, it also produces the most prized caviar, with large fish containing 220–440 lb (100–200 kg). The beluga sturgeon is endangered due to poaching and damming of its spawning rivers.
- Order Acipenseriformes
- Length 16 ft (5 m)
- Weight Up to 4,400 lb (2,000 kg)
- Depth 230–590 ft (70–180 m)
- Distribution Northern Mediterranean, Black Sea, Caspian Sea, and associated rivers

Taste is dry and hoppy, nothing much here besides chemicals
Ok, but f all

Presentation: 12 oz stubby green bottle, states that the beer is brewed with crystal clear water, finest hops, select cereal grains and pure yeast … isn't that what all American macro breweries put on their labels? No freshness date.
Appearance: Yellow straw colour with a semi sticky lace that fades to just a mere ring of lace.
Smell: Hmm … cooked cereal grain, ghost like DMS / cooked veggies and some husky grain make up the vaguely clean aroma.
Taste: Smooth with and odd crispness off the moderate carbonation, grain with undertones of cooked corn. Astringent flavours pull hard and leave a dry bitty mouth feel. Hops are processed and lean and add to the astringent flavours. More and more grain and astringency evenly flow, not to the point of not being drinkable. Big veggie after tastes is not pleasurable either.
Notes: Nothing like a crappy Dutch beer, Heineken may have done it right the bad way but this beer steals the show for being not only bland but with the imported lager taste too and doing it all the wrong way ... either way they are the same only this one is cheaper $$$ so buy this one over Heineken. This beer is just not happening at all.

Serving is chilled, in a pint glass. Pours golden straw with some head and very little lacing. Smell is clean and dry. Very grainy. Taste is smooth, of malted grain, but no bad aftertaste. Somewhat malty with hints of floral tones. A faint dry malt aftertaste, with a lot of graininess.Sweet and lightly malty taste in the end. For the price this is not too bad, will buy again.This cheap Euro beer is better than most of our domestic macros.

Golden yellow with very thin head. Overage looking.
Skunky nose typical of the style. Smells like sweet grain.
Sweet grainy with very mild bitterness. Tastes really like a typical lager.
Crisp and light in the mouth. Not too dry. Overall very nice.
A nice lager... typical but very pleasent.

Pale hay color, absolutely clear with a whitish head of 1/8 of an inch of soapy bubbles. Sweet vegetal aroma, slight skunk, and little to zero hops. Flavor is slightly better than the aroma, slightly sour but with some peppery hop sense to offset the absolutely tasteless sweet mash. A bit of a weird hot cinnamon in the aftertaste. Doesn't generate enough flavor for me to have much of an opinion -- other than it doesn't have the dryness of a decent Pilsner nor the drinkability of a mid pack Lager.

Probably down there with heineken, but perhaps better at half the price, only drink in situations where your moneys running low, light fizzy, easy to drink, no character.

I simply won't mince words with this one, it's an absolutely terrible lager. The not-so-secret objective of this beer is nothing more ambitious than to make a low-cost alternative to Heineken, and to a certain degree they pull it off.
It's a pale yellow color, with a scent not unlike your average European-made Lager. The taste, at first, it oddly identical to Heineken, very light, very heavy on the fermented veggies.
The difference is in the aftertaste, which is oddly bitter, and with an absolutely disgusting astringency. At first, it's not so apparent, but the more you drink, the more the aftertaste spreads until after your second bottle, it's all you can taste.
Cheaper than even a 6-pack of Budweiser at my local grocery store, and for good reason. Avoid this one at any cost.

500ml can. Differentiating the offerings from this brewery is a chore in itself.
This beer pours a clear, medium golden colour, with two fingers of thinly foamy off-white head, which leaves some attractive honeycomb lace around the glass as it sinks away from sight.
It smells, well, it smells a hell of a lot better than most of its siblings - like actual beer, really - if you mean marginally cheap-ass, sweet grainy malt, and some generally inoffensive (parse that at you own peril) weak-ass leafy hops. The taste is pretty much just a lessened version of all those creamed corn gagfests of lager monstrosities we've all encountered at one time or another. That said, I'm well able to keep my lunch down with this one - the sugary, nondescript grainy malt and plain earthy hop simulacrum have me fooled enough to keep at it.
The carbonation is rather mild, the body medium-light, but suffering none for it, and tentatively smooth amongst some prickly edges. It finishes just off-dry, much less sweet than anticipated, just a murky pale malt and weirdly floral hop tango to middling applause.
By looking at the cumulative score, one might be a bit misled - not all things do well by dissection and investigation - sometimes an adequate stadium beer is just that - thankfully non-represented 'Orange' colours aside - a so-so, still drinkable lager, if only for a can or two. Nah, just the one, please.

Hollandia is one of those cheap averagely made beers, that only sell cause they are erally cheap, they should only be drunk if you get them for free, and there is nothing else to drink. Taste is rather average, slightly hoppy, tastes like a bad bad batch of Steinlager (and thats saying something). Still it's cheap.

Its crystal-clear straw-gold body reveals hundreds of average-sized bubbles rising quickly to fall in line beneath its creamy bright-white head. The retention is good and it holds a thin, creamy cap as well as leaving sheets of dappled lace. The nose is clean but offers little more than a mildly sweet, slightly grainy malt that's just lightly infused with leafy or herbal hops. The body is light bordering on medium; and it's crisp in the mouth. The flavor delivers a mildly sweet and lightly grainy malt that's solidified by an undercurrent of hop flavor and restrained bitterness. It finishes with a touch of sweet malt that dries fairly quickly.

Judging from some of the reviews I've read, cans are the way to go with this to get highest quality.
Pours slightly less pale than a usual pale lager. Some white head and minimal lacing.
Smell is grassy, honey straw type flavors typical of the style.
Tastes slightly sweet, with a slightly tart grassiness and a honey-bitter end. Leaves a distinctly honey aftertaste.
Sticky, squeaky mouthfeel. Kind of thin.
Overall, a very average beer, but not bad for a cheap lawnmower light. Just be sure to get the cans.

Pours to a deep golden color and thin white bubbly head. Aroma is skunks and rubber. Taste is cheap, dry eurolager crap. Finishes with a dryness that is not too bad. Overall, this is a crappy, smelly, cheap tasting beer that has few things going for it.

Thanks to woodychandler for the trade.Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is sweet, malts. Taste is also on the sweet side, some malts, a touch of bitterness. Feels light in the mouth and has good drinkability. Overall this is a good brew, great for a hot summer day.

A: Poured a clear, pale orange with a fizzy, bone white head that quickly dissipated without a lacing. Visible carbonation was light and sporadic.
S: A light wiff of skunkiness was emitted upon first opening. The nose yielded raw green vegetables (brocolli), was disappointing and very light in nature,(which was probably the only good thing about it).
T: a light showing of sour oranges, musky grains and fresh green vegetables. Some metallic nature was also detected and was overall pretty bland. Some maize makes a late entry and comes off pretty much like a Heineken flavor-wise.
M: light with some astringency and fizziness from the carbonation. Not a good feeling.
D: Drinkability was unimpressive, and didn't care to finish this one. A big pass here needless to say.

A- The coloration of this one is typically macro and Euro....pale gold, crystal clear and with lots of carbonation. The head disappears as quickly as it formed after the initial pour....whats left is a thin patchwork of soapy white film partially covering the beer. I do have to say that the the lacing is half decent looking, as it at least leaves behind some sticky clumps of foam on the glass, and they stay there too.
S- This is best summed up as follows (and in this order): corn, rice, barley malt, dry grass, no hops, and then more corn/rice. Very bland overall and again, smells eerily similar to an AAL.
T- When it's stated on the can that "select grains" were used, they must have meant that they use select cow corn in this beer...it is sweet initially, then finishes clean....too clean. This is very bland overall, following the aromas closely, and I think along with said corn adjunct, lots of white rice was used in this as well. In trying to find something positive, I can taste a hint of hop extract right after the swallow, as it leaves a bittering flavor down in my throat.
M- Thin, highly carbonated and 'sterile' clean, this Hollandaise beer has it all when it comes to nothingness on the palate...reminds me of a more flavorful Coors Light.
O- The only reason I bought this is b/c I honestly thought it was a nice beverage at a beer/wine/liquor festival that I attended....I was also hammered by the time I got around to sampling this one...it's no longer a 5/5 as I put in the book I had. On a hot day, this would be super refreshing I have to admit, but then so is Budweiser, and Bud is cheaper if I'm going that route! Not the absolute worst beer I've had but still....Thumbs down!

Very pale straw, snowy head dissipates to a tiny covering.
Massive skunk aroma, along with stale malty cardboard. Astringent.
More cardboard on taste with shortlived weak bitterness.
Feels watery, with little carbonation.
Not extremely offensive, but pretty dodgy all the same.

The Springdale Chargers couldn't wait for their second football game this season.
The Chargers, who were routed by Tekoa-Oaksdale in their season opener two weeks ago, scored the first time they touched the ball, a 58-yard punt return by Shane O'Malley in a 48-0 win over Liberty (0-3) on Friday.
Unfortunately, O'Malley's punt return was called back by a clipping penalty. It did not matter, since Mitch Peone legally scored a 45-yard run two plays later and the Chargers were in control the rest of the way.
Head coach Mark Edwards said the extra week off really helped since it allowed him to get a half-dozen players back in action. He also used the two weeks as a teaching tool for a team that relies on four freshmen at various times during the game.
"We're young and those young guys are going to make mistakes," he said.
Already up 8-0, the Chargers needed five plays to find the endzone the second time they got the ball. The 42-yard drive, set up by a Daniel Peone interception, was capped off on a 16-yard run by senior Taylor DeGraaf.
The Chargers rolled up 228 yards on the ground in the first half as they took a 29-0 lead into the locker room at halftime.
Liberty, hampered by three turnovers, was limited to 73 total yards in the game.
"I thought we swarmed really well," Edwards said on the Chargers' defensive effort.
"Tonight we were together as a team and played a little football," added senior quarterback/linebacker Hunter Hedequist.
Any chance of a Liberty comeback was snuffed on the first play of the third quarter when Springdale junior Emmanuel Welch took the second half kickoff 73 yards for a touchdown.
Welch scored on a 25-yard run two plays after Hedequist recovered a fumble to increase the lead to 41-0 with 9:50 left in the third quarter.
Hedequist, making his second varsity start at quarterback last week, finished 5 of 9 passing for 52 yards.
"I was a little nervous," said Hedequist on the first game, "but I was ready to have a good year."
The Chargers will travel to Ritzville 7 p.m. Friday. The Broncos (3-0) defeated Kittitas 36-13 in non-league game last week.

Halfway across the globe, tropical cyclone Zane gains strength. The latest images out of NASA show this monster storms as it churns off the coast of Australia.
NASA image courtesy Jeff Schmaltz, LANCE/EOSDIS MODIS Rapid Response Team at NASA GSFC
Zane formed as a tropical storm over the southwestern Pacific Ocean on April 30, 2013, and strengthened into a cyclone the same day. The U.S. Navy's Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) reported that the storm had maximum sustained winds of 60 knots and gusts up to 75 knots. The storm was expected to pass over northeastern Australia and the Gulf of Carpentaria between May 1 and 3.
NASA's Terra satellite captured this natural-color image on April 30, 2013. Zane hovered over the Coral Sea between Papua New Guinea and Australia.
The JTWC forecast that as Zane traveled westward, it would gain strength, reaching sustained wind speeds of 85 knots and gusts of 105 knots around May 1. Afterwards, wind speeds were expected to drop.

Someone in the Easton area -- or at least someone who shops there -- is sitting on a $1 million lottery ticket.
The Pennsylvania Lottery says Ike's Exxon station in Wilson sold one of four $1 million tickets from the Jan. 5 drawing.
Workers at Ike's said Monday afternoon they had no idea who bought the ticket. The store -- and any retailer who sells a winning $1 million ticket -- gets a $5,000 bonus.
Whoever it was who won has a year to claim the prize at Pennsylvania Lottery headquarters in Dauphin County, the lottery said in a news release. The four winning numbers were 00023446, 00075876, 00158528 and 00222718.
The other three tickets were sold in Cumberland, Lycoming and Jefferson counties, the lottery said.

A man will be charged with aggravated robbery and conspiracy to commit aggravated burglary upon his release from an area hospital. Toledo police say 18-year-old Andrew Short was shot by off-duty Lucas County Sheriff's Deputy Daniel Hannon in Point Place after an attempted robbery.
Police say around 1 a.m. on 119th Street, Hannon let out his dog and was standing in a garage doorway when he noticed two people on foot in front of his house, as well as two unfamiliar cars parked out front.
Hannon says he put his weapon in his back pocket, preparing for what could come next.
According to Hannon, he pulled out his gun and warned Short he was a sheriff's deputy.
"He identified himself as a sheriff's deputy several times, and told the guy to drop the gun. He refused, so he fired one round at him," said King.
Short took off running and hopped into one of the getaway cars, while Hannon ran into his garage to take cover. The accomplices took Short to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. His injuries are not life-threatening.
The other car was pulled over moments later by Toledo police, and suspects inside admitted they had been planning to rob homes in the area.
"While they were casing the residences, they happen to see the gentleman standing there. Apparently, Short decided, 'I'm gonna go rob this guy.' But he didn't realize, obviously, he's an off-duty deputy sheriff, and he got more than he bargained for," said King.
Police arrested six accomplices and charged them with conspiracy to commit aggravated burglary, as well.
The incident is under investigation. The deputy is not on administrative leave at this time because the sheriff believes his actions were justified.

It's impossible to know if Bobby Valentine will be a "good Red Sox manager" or a "bad Red Sox manager" or (most likely) somewhere in between. But what we've suspected from Day 1 has proven true: If nothing else, Bobby Valentine is going to be an interesting Red Sox manager.
First he banned beer in the clubhouse, which led to a wonderful little story when Terry Francona chimed in. And things got even more interesting when Valentine started taking tiny little plausible-denial swipes at the Yankees. Tuesday, presumably when asked to discuss Jason Varitek's legacy, Valentine couldn't resist throwing this in: "He was able to beat up Alex, all that stuff. He was exactly what he was supposed to be."
Now, this wasn't precisely what happened. Close enough, though, if one is trying to establish oneself as a Very Important Person in Red Sox Nation.
Better yet, Valentine took a little jab at the Very Importantest Person in Yankees Nation. I don't even understand how this came up, but somehow Valentine got to talking about The Flip -- Derek Jeter's play in Game 3 of the 2001 American League Division Series that might have turned the whole series around. As you probably know, the Yankees claimed the play was all in a day's work for Jeter, who had practiced it many times. You know. Jeter.
Bobby Valentine doesn't believe Jeter practiced it, and he doesn't believe the play even mattered so much. If you believe what he says, anyway.
"We'll never practice that,'' Valentine said. "I think [Jeter] was out of position and the ball gets [Giambi] out if [Jeter] doesn't touch it, personally.''
Valentine is in the minority -- perhaps a minority of one -- when he says the throw might have gotten to the plate without Jeter's intervention.
"If Jeter doesn't catch the ball, the ball hits me -- that's how far off the mark it was," said Oakland's Ramon Hernandez, the on-deck hitter who was signaling Giambi to slide, to no avail. "Jeter made an unbelievable, heads-up play. Then he makes a great throw to boot. Unbelievable. The play saved them."
"That was amazing that (Jeter) was there. I bet it's more amazing that he said he practiced it. I don't believe it.''
Orioles manager Buck Showalter, who was with Jeter in his early years, said that indeed was a play Jeter had practiced.
"That was a play we practiced in spring training," Showalter told Tom Van Riper of Forbes Magazine in an interview last year. "Derek was maybe 19 or 20, he was just a pup. We practiced that on a back field, it was taught. The reason Derek had to flip the ball was that he was actually a little bit late getting there."
Everybody's got their own agendas here, of course. But I don't see any compelling reason to doubt Showalter's memory. He was there, and he's now far enough removed from his time with the Yankees -- far, far enough removed -- that he's got no good reason to lie.
Meanwhile, if you're a Red Sox fan you have to hope that Bobby Valentine is sly rather than foolish. You have to hope that Valentine is merely trying to motivate his troops; that he'll say or do almost anything within reason to establish a powerful new us-vs.-them mentality.
The best part of all this? He's only just begun. This is only going to get better, sports fans.

A local teenager cashed in when her parents hosted a party after her 13th birthday. But she didn't spend her gift money on clothes or makeup, as any other teenager might have.
Instead, she spent it on kids she doesn't even know, who desperately need a friend.
For more than 70 years, Pat the Bunny has brought comfort to young children, when no adult could quite fit the bill.
The smile, the fur, a friend to pat.
Her mom says it worked for Eloise Nimoityn.
"She always used it to comfort her I guess when nothing else seemed to work," Hillary Nimoityn explained. "And she thought it would be of comfort to other children."
So Eloise bought 100 of them with money she received as gifts from her Bat Mitzvah, the Jewish rite of passage for girls.
The bunnies weren't cheap. "No, no, no!" Hillary Nimoityn said emphatically. "She spent a lot of money and bought the bunnies and she attached little notes to each bunny, each is a hand-written note to a child."
One hundred hand-written notes, which read, "Pat the Bunny has always been a special comfort for me. I hope you find the same comfort from Pat and enjoy his company."
Hillary Nimoityn said her 13-year-old daughter spent hours writing them. But why spend the time, when computers are so much easier? "Because it's more special and from me," Eloise Nimoityn told Fox 29.
The bunnies will be given to kids now living in an emergency shelter, the only one in Philly for women and children who escaped from violent homes.
"Half of the people we serve are kids under six years old," explained Jeannine Lisitski, the executive director of Women Against Abuse, the organization that runs the shelter.
"So imagine, these children are coming with nothing," Lisitski said. Eloise won't get to meet the children who will be receiving the bunnies, because many if not all of the kids are still too traumatized-- which is why she chose the organization. She knew the children would need comforting. "She was really attracted to this charity and felt that her bunnies could do the most good," Hillary Nimoityn explained.
"It's really huge, it's bigger than what we might think," Lisitski told Fox 29. Because Pat the Bunny is not just a stuffed animal. For many young children, he's a symbol of a safe place.
"This could be something that helps provide stability for the children and a way towards healing," Lisitski said.
In Judaism, a Bat Mitzvah marks the passage from being a girl to becoming a woman. Eloise Nimoityn is well on her way.

Bottling firm to invest $1.1 bn in Colombia, Brazil
- 3 Years ago

Mexico City, March 1 (IANS/EFE) Fomento Economico Mexicano, or FEMSA, Latin America's largest bottling company, said it planned to invest $1.1 billion this year in new projects, including new plants in Colombia and Brazil.
Some $710 million will go toward maintenance and expansion at Coca-Cola Femsa, as well as the construction of the two new plants in South America, CFO Javier Astaburuaga said.
The company plans to invest $350 million in the Oxxo convenience store chain to continue meeting the target of three new store openings per day, Astaburuaga said.
FEMSA expects to generate $600 million in excess cash this year that could be used for acquisitions at either of its two business units, the CFO said.
The company reported net consolidated profits of 20.68 billion pesos (about $1.6 billion) in 2011, down 54.3 percent from the 45.29 billion pesos (some $3.51 billion) in profits posted in 2010.
Revenues rose 19.6 percent to 203.04 billion pesos ($15.75 billion), FEMSA said in a filing with securities regulators.
Gross profits soared 19.8 percent to 85.03 billion pesos (about $6.59 billion), the company said.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization surged 19.5 percent to 33.95 billion pesos ($2.63 billion), FEMSA said.
Capital expenditures (Capex) totaled 12.51 billion pesos (about $970 million), or 12 percent above the 2010 level, the company said.
The year "2011 was a strong year for our company. Despite a volatile economic environment", FEMSA chairman and CEO Jose Antonio Fernandez said.
"Demand for our products remained healthy, and we stayed the course and managed to convert that demand into robust financial results by focusing our time, efforts and resources on the extraordinary opportunities for Coca-Cola FEMSA and OXXO," the CEO said.
Coca-Cola Femsa produces and distributes Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite, del Valle, other Coca-Cola Co. products in Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil and Argentina.
The company also sells bottled water, juices, tea, sports drinks, beer and other products.
"And so we look at 2012 with optimism and renewed energy, ready to keep moving our company forward by pursuing and overcoming new challenges," Fernandez said.
Coca-Cola Femsa has 34 bottling plants across Latin America and provides its products to 1.6 million retailers in the region.

Supposedly Endangered House Dem Up 20+ Points
by Jonathan Singer, Sun Feb 28, 2010 at 01:57:07 PM EST
Charlie Cook seems to think it's all but a fait accompli that the Democrats will lose the House of Representatives in November. He might want to tell that to the voters in Alabama's second congressional district, which despite tending to lean about 16 points more Republican than the nation as a whole looks on track to reelect its freshman Democratic Congressman this year by a wide margin.
A new poll conducted for Rep. Bobby Bright's (D-AL) campaign shows that while he may sit in a very vulnerable CD, he starts out in strong shape for re-election.
The survey, conducted by Anzalone-Liszt (D), shows Bright leading Montgomery Councilor Martha Roby (R), AL school board member Stephanie Bell (R) and businessman Rick Barber (R) handily. The survey was conducted 2/8-11, among 500 LVs; It has a margin of error of +/- 4.4%. The survey was first posted in the Montgomery Advertiser.General Election Matchups Bright 54% Bright 55% Roby 30 Bell 29
Bright 58%
Barber 26
This is an internal poll, and there are enough reasons to take such campaign-sponsored surveys with a grain of salt that I need not be too explicit with a word of caution. That said, these aren't the types of numbers that look to be skewed -- and if they were, the National Republican Congressional Committee would already be out with its own numbers showing a radically different outcome. In the absence of such pushback from the Republicans, it's not hard to imagine that the Democrat Bright is in fact leading by a wide margin -- perhaps not 24 percentage points and more, but a wide margin nonetheless -- in the very red district he represents.
And this represents a genuine challenge to the model employed by some of the Beltway prognosticators that says the Democrats have already put themselves in position to lose the House this cycle. If the Republicans can't even be competitive in an R+16 district featuring a freshman Democrat in a race Cook now labels as "a tossup," how, exactly, are they supposed to win back the 40 seats they need to regain a majority in the chamber?

News on automotive quality: American Consumer Satisfaction Index shows U-S automotive brands slipping.
The index is based on a survey of recent car buyers. questions included vehicle quality, price and dealership experience.
European marques averaged a score of 84.7 followed by Asian brands averaged 84.1 and U.S. brands came in at 82.
The industry wide average slid to 83 from 84 a year earlier, marking the first decline in two years. Mercedes-Benz led with a rating of 88, just ahead of Lexus (87). Honda, Subaru and Toyota tied for third place at 86. GMC and Cadillac shared fourth place at 85.
Chevrolet and Dodge fell 5 points and 2 points, respectively, to an industry-low score of 79. Jeep (80) and Buick (82) also ranked below average. But Chrysler (84) and GMC both posted 5-point gains.
Back on July 24th I delivered the following commentary on John McElroy's AutoLine Daily, global auto report on the problems in the auto supply chain. Business is good--sometimes too good for the industry's own good.
from 7/24 SUPPLIERS STRUGGLE TO MEET DEMAND
The domestic auto industry is on a roll, sales are up, prices are up, incentives are falling and production could hit 16-million units this year. Is everybody happy? No. Those who hold the key to the car assembly are not, the suppliers. Many slimmed down and they just don't have the strength, the power and the capital to pump out as many parts as the car makers are demanding.
But now I'm told some tier one suppliers are not even replacing worn out tooling at the tier two suppliers. It's the tier one's job to replace that. The tier two's have to maintain it. But, when it can't be maintained anymore and has to be replaced many tier one's are not doing it, for one reason or another. This is causing, downtime, production delays, could cause injuries and even quality issues.
But wait, there's more. There's another sticky issue, lower prices being forced on suppliers by the companies they produce for. There have been lawsuits, and I'm told more litigation is on the way, over these issues. If this surge in demand continues and these issues are not resolved, we could be facing more supplier bankruptcies, more lawsuits and perhaps even more recalls, because of quality issues.
