.5L Bügelflasche, best before 8/17/2011.
Pours a nice and clear ruby-brown, but the head is like a cola.
The aroma has some nice toasted malts at first, with a faint mineral/metallic character in the background.
The flavor is okay, but just a bit flat in my opinion. It's very simple, with crusty bread flavors and the slightest bit of toffee if you really dig deep. The finish is drying and off in some way. The mouthfeel is soda-like, though the carbonation stays soft.
Nothing special here. Maybe this bottle is a bit past its prime (expires in two months), but I don't see this being much better fresh.

This beer poured out as a reddish brown color with a tan colored head that was pretty thin. The aromas were of a lot of grains and malt. There isn't a whole lot of hops on the nose or much else. Perhaps a little spice but that's about it. The taste is mostly dry malt, some fresh leaves some other flavors of nature in there. The mouthfeel is medium, It's drinkable and worth trying again. I was better than I expected.

A dark but clear rosey mahogany color with an off-white/grey whimpy head that fades to a ring with modest lacing. The aroma is a malty-root, brown sugar and sour mash. The flavor is sour malt and weak wheat grain goodness. But it's quite thin and watery, minimal carbonation, a bit tingly. Drinkable but not desirable particularly. I can't really pick up any other qualities, just kind of non-descript, not one I will revisit.

poured from the nice 0.5L swingtop (homebrewer's friend for sure) to a tall 0.5L stein.
pours a nice deep mahogany / cherry-brown color. very (filtered) clear. results in a nice creamy looking off-white head two finger head with a steady stream of small bubbles rising to keep the head. the head hangs around a surprising amount of time ~1/2 finger worth. sticky lacing.
smells like sweet malts, a dab of caramel. hops? not that i can detect, although the style is not supposed to be hop nose heavy.
a slightly sweet malt taste upfront, and a dry (bitter) finish. somewhat thin in taste, but it's not a sticke alt, so this is somewhat expected. pleasant and easy.
a somewhat thicker than expected mouthfeel. not a negative, but for the amount of flavor i almost expected it to be a bit thinner. kinda explains that creamy head i would say.
easy to drink for certain, and coming in swingtop bottles throwing back a couple to make room for homebrew wouldn't be difficult at all. but not the alt that i would want to drink all the time.
this was my first alt beer that i remember. i've had others since, but i figured i'd review this one first.

Reviewed on 9/5/08. Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of raisin, dark fruits, some cardboard. Yep, this tastes like the other Schwelmer beers even though it's a different style. Cardboard and stale wheat. Blech.

330ml. small brown bottle with a swing-top stopper and a "Best before end: 88 10 70", whenever the heck that is? It pours a dark chestnut brown with a thin light tan head that fades to a ring almost instantly. When held to the light, nice burgundy highlights shine through. Decent carbonation for the style.
The smell is sweet and nutty, with grainy malts and a bit of roast. A little fruitiness and a wee bit of alcohol peeks though in the end.
The taste is similar to the smell with it's nuttiness and fruit of green apple and muscat grapes. Mostly sweet and nutty, some tobacco, with a bitter clean finish.
Medium body at best, with a rather astringent mouthfeel. An easy drinker with the mild alcohol not really noticeable, except in the nose. Worth a try for the style and a nice re-useable bottle.

Poured a dark copper with a medium tan head. Lots of caramel and bread in the aroma. Flavor was dense with caramel and malt, with a bitter end. No hops, mostly sour apple. Some fruitiness, with a heavier than expected mouthfeel. Its okay, but not worth doing again.

Appearance is crystal clear, deep chocolate brown with ruby red highlights and a rocky off-white head that lingers for only a moment or two to settle in a thin layer. Aroma has bready malts with notes of milk chocolate and bread dough along with some faint flowery noble hops. The taste is very complex and it took me nearly the whole glass to nail down all the flavors. Up front I'm hit with sweet chocolate and bread dough. Through the middle I taste those flowery noble hops and hazelnut. Then in the finish is a distinct sherry-like note. Medium to medium low mouthfeel makes this highly drinkable and the restrained carbonation compared to most other German lagers I think really helped bring out the robust flavors. I really enjoyed this beer a lot and I'm upset I didn't pick up more bottles. Oh well, I guess I'll have to buy more!

3.9/5 rDev +6.8%
A: Poured a dark ruby red with a thin, macro-bubbly off white head that almost immediately dissipated. Visible carbonation was very light.
S: ripe fruit (prunes, plums), sweet dark caramel, and light licorice notes.
T: sweet dark roasted caramel and licorice. There was some spicy ripe fruit (plums, prunes, raisins) and light sugary notes. The hopping was hard to detect with the sweet caramel and spicy ripe fruit but there was some earthiness that was attributed.
M: light, with a thin syrupy viscosity and full of ripe fruit leaving a nice residual coating behind. The carbonation was very soft.
D: Overall a good drinking and hoppy alt with rich ripe fruit makes this and enjoyable experience that was rich and fruity and smooth going down.

I bought this in a 0.5 liter bottle that had a resealable top, like grolsch. It pours with very little head, which went away quickly, with no lacing. Very dark brown. It has a nutty smell with hints of sweetness. And the taste is similar, with malt. Medium carbonation. This is my first try with an altbier, so I have no others to compare it to. I do like it, even though it is a little on the light side for my taste.

4/5 rDev +9.6%
Appearance: Pours a dark brown with some reddish/copperish colors showing if put near light. Mainly comes from the reflection. Looks good so far.
Aroma: Mild. I can get some sweetness, and caramel.
Taste: Pretty good...it has a nice amount of sweetness to it, and there is a nice maltiness to it. A little bitterness in the finish, but not much. Alcohol presence is low as well.
Mouthfeel: Smooth, goes down well. Medium body, a bit creamy.
Drinkability: Works for me. Not too heavy, not too much alcohol content, good taste. Not much can go wrong with a couple of these.

500ml bottle into nonic.
Deep brown hue with plenty of ruby along the edges. A thick cap results from a one finger off white head.
Very light aroma with toasty grains and a little bit of caramel.
A mix of roasted grains and sweet brown sugar. A touch of creaminess is in there as well. Full bodied with good carbonation. The malts linger for a bit after each sip.
This is a pretty delicate beer, with light flavors and aromas, but it's pretty good. There is something to be appreciated about that. Very recommended.

Served in a glass mug from a .5-liter bottle.
Appearance is deceiving. It looks a lot heavier than it really is. The color of cherry coke, with a thin white head that slowly dissipates into an even lacing. It has a very subtle aroma, similar to that of a traditional Scottish Amber but with more of a sweetness. It's a full-bodied taste that goes down incredibly smooth. Has a relatively mild bitterness in the aftertaste and a watery mouthfeel. Not quite enough "uumph" for my personal preference, but I certainly can't put it down. This is a genuine beer-drinkers' beer.

A big frothy tan foam sits atop the brown liquid. Reddish hues appear when held to the light, along some clarity. Thick sheets of lace cling to the glass. Very nice.
Mild aroma with toasted malt and hints of sweetness, fruit, and hops.
Flavors of toasted grain, fresh bread, and a touch of brown sugar. Mild fruit and the perfect amount of hops for balance. Finish is where the complexity lies, with some yeastiness, nuts, a little roasted malt, and spicy & herbal hops.
Light in body and fairly thin on the tongue. Smooth and lightly carbonated. Lacks a bit in flavor, but enjoyable and very drinkable. Good session beer that won't get in the way.

My first Altbier and it's a pretty damn good one. I bought this at Brighton Bazaar Market in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn. (This place really should be in the beerspy list. It has a decent sized and interesting selection of Eastern European, German, and Asian beers.)
Appearance: Dark reddish brown, a perfect match for a cola color, but with sharper red highlights when held up to the light. Thick creamy tan head that last for several minutes, finally dissipating into a light lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell: Delicious bready, sweet malt, cream soda, light hop notes.
Taste: Creamy, malty, slight note of a brown sugar sweetness light hop tickle on the tongue. Wet yet smoky finish, with a nice feeling of alcohol warmth near the end.
Mouthfeel: medium bodied, smooth, very little carbonation.
Drinkability: very good, great smooth taste and easy to drink. Would make a great session beer.

3.35/5 rDev -8.2%
0.9 liter/ 1pt .09 fl oz. old fashioned swing top bottle. The bottle has a plain label of a colonial style home with their slogan "The unique hoppy altbier" below it. The back label has the information you'll find in the US, including the ingredients (Water, malt, hops) and a "before end" date of 88 10 83. I'm not even sure what this means. It's more than likely something that only Schwelmer can understand.
Appearance: When poured into a Pilsner glass, this beer is a dark chestnut brown with a few dark amber highlights. It had a large 2 1/2 inch head of white foam that really good retention that left behind a white film and streak after streak of white lace.
Smell: This Altbier had a truly unique aroma of malted wheat, toasted biscuits, sweet caramel, tea leaves, and a tiny splash of coffee at the end. I never would have thought that an Altbier would ever smell like this. Nice little aroma.
Taste: I thought the taste was too light for this style and even for the low ABV %. It didn't have to be like this. Besides the taste being too light, it was also dry with tea leaves, toasted biscuits, a touch of sweet caramel, and a pinch of toasted citrus hops at the finish. It wasn't as unique as the aroma was.
Mouthfeel: The mouthfeel was light with a faint aftertaste of toasted biscuits, a small touch of caramel, tea, and dab of bitter toasted hops at the end.
Drinkability: I'm on the fence with this one. It started off nice with the appearance and unique aroma, but it finished off rather weak. It wasn't all that hoppy and it wasn't all that unique.

3.2/5 rDev -12.3%
Appearance- Body is a very clear, light-to-medium brown/amber with a thick, creamy tan head that slowly falls s to a lasting thin cover. Some broken rings of lacing stick to the glass.
Smell- The smell is earthy/woody, slightly nutty. A sweet, grainy aroma with just enough bittering hops.
Taste- A so-so blend of malt, malt sweetness and bittering hops. Some graininess in there. Also getting some earth, woody flavors in the background. Somebody else mentioned impressions of a moss-covered wood. I would have to agree. A vaguely harsh hop taste in the very end.
Mouthfeel- Medium body (for style). Good CO2 level. Again, for style.
Drinkability- Worth a try, but it ain't great.

Pours a dark brownish amber color with a nice lace of head. Smell has fruity and malty aromas. Taste is fruity but very complex also. It's lightly carbonated and goes down extra smooth with a slight bitterness towards the end. The hops and malts are perfectly balance. The is one fine brew and I can't imagine and Altbier getting much better than this.

A- Reddish mahogany hue, one finger head left a nice wisp.
S- Sweet malty aroma underpinned by noble earthy hops.
T- Nicely complex, robust yet not overpowering. Its hard to tell whether the hops balance out the malt or the malt balances out the hops.
M- Rich and smooth despite a slightly thin finish.
D- I gotta go back and grab the 4 pack.
A great example of an often negleted style. Personally I think this is Schwelmer's best offering.

I poured this beer into my tumbler at 50 degrees. The beer was a nice mahoganny color with a nice head. The smell of this beer was sweet at first then I thought a little skunky possibly. The taste at first was watery but then I came to tase a little nuttiness, maply spicey taste. I first said no then changed my mind to YES I would buy this beer again. kind of a wishy washy reveiw but this beer got better as I drank on it.

Article: 74% of Small Businesses will Fire Workers and Cut Hours Due to Obamacare
Original post made by Defund Obamacare on Jul 16, 2013
Check out this article below.

on Jul 16, 2013 at 6:36 pm
This survey was conducted online among 1,304 "Small Business Executives". That is a ridiculously small sampling of the same individuals that stand to make the most money in any firm and have little to no interest in ensuring their employees are covered.
Defund, your sky-is-falling hyperbole is disproportionate to the data and facts of this study.
on Jul 16, 2013 at 7:48 pm
Sorry, A Neighbor. The margin of error in that study was plus or minus 2.5 percent. So it was satistically significant. Nice try. However, I understand that most socialist Dems have a problem with facts.
on Jul 16, 2013 at 11:24 pm
You missed my point. What makes this study statistically insignificant was the small sampling, not the margin of error. With only 1,304 respondents, it does not qualify as a representative sampling of the opinions of small business owners across this country.
For example, if you said 74% of "socialist Dems have a problem with facts", but only confirmed that it was true in 1,304 cases, you would be significantly overstating your conclusions.

Hi everybody, I am modifying the phone zimlet to make it interact with our VoIP system: is it possible to get the phone and the pager number (that are stored in Zimbra LDAP and available in the GAL) of the user that is currently logged in?
I found that is possible to get the username (Getting username in panel from zimlet ) but I haven't found similar methods to get other details of the account.
Or do I have to query the internal LDAP to get those values?

Taco Bell coming to Belvedere Road in West Palm Beach
- 11:22 am Thursday, March 4th, 2010 by Allison Ross
Looks like Taco Bell is opening a new location on Belvedere Road in West Palm Beach.
There's a sign announcing the impending arrival of the fast-food eatery on a lot just east of Parker Avenue, where a building is under construction.
It will be located next to the First Lutheran Thrift Store, at 824 Belvedere. That shop is just re-opening today after being closed for a while. Volunteer worker Doni Topel said the thrift shop will be open 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday through Saturday; she confirmed that the Taco Bell was moving in next door.
Unfortunately, despite repeated phone calls to Taco Bell headquarters over a few days, we've been unable to get any more details about the new location.
UPDATE: Taco Bell has responded, saying that the new location will open in May. According to the spokesman, the location will be a more modern-looking restaurant than some of its other locations. He called the new style of restaurant "Bold Choice." [More]

Issue OverviewStorage magazine - October 2013 Vol. 12 No. 8
There's hope for storage shops straining to back up ever-growing data stores, but it might mean using a modern backup alternative instead of a traditional backup app. The usual scenario of weekly fulls/daily incrementals can break down as data overwhelms the process. The good news is that the problem may be solved using familiar tools, such as snapshots and replication, in new ways to create a sustainable backup process.
Most IT groups have moved from server-based storage to networked storage systems, a model that's worked well for years. But now we're seeing new apps and performance demands that are better addressed with storage installed at the server. But new techs make it possible to share that storage so you don't lose the benefits of networked storage.

Frandsen in camp with new attitude
Infielder willing to accept whatever role Giants have for him
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Call it accountability; call it maturity. Either word fits Kevin Frandsen's renewed perspective.If a Major League veteran is blocking Frandsen's path to an everyday playing role, he won't dwell on it. He insisted that he'll shrug off an injury, even a serious one such as the ruptured Achilles tendon that sidelined him for almost the entire 2008 season. Frandsen's finished with such rationalizations, however legitimate they might be, for not having established himself with the Giants despite spending parts of the last four seasons with them. The true source of his fortunes, he said, is that familiar man in the mirror. "I have no excuses for anything," Frandsen said Wednesday. "It took awhile for me to realize that I was the problem. I was the one who was inconsistent when I came up here and didn't produce. It wasn't anyone else." Frandsen's current status is turned inside out compared with last year's. Despite coming off a season of near-total inactivity, save for an Arizona Fall League stint, Frandsen entered Spring Training 2009 with a chance to start at second base. But Emmanuel Burriss claimed the Opening Day job by outperforming Frandsen in the Cactus League. By contrast, Frandsen entered this spring thoroughly prepared, having played 154 games with Triple-A Fresno, the Giants and the Gigantes de Carolina in the Puerto Rican Winter League. Yet he appears to have almost no chance of playing every day. Juan Uribe is the likely replacement for injured Freddy Sanchez as San Francisco's Opening Day second baseman. This has forced Frandsen, 27, to compete for a utility role with Burriss and Ryan Rohlinger. He has a Minor League option remaining, leaving him vulnerable to another trip to Fresno. But, as Frandsen said, "You never know. I'm geared up to do whatever they ask me to do."

PHOENIX -- D-backs outfielder Chris Young has been battling a sore left thumb recently, but does not believe the injury is serious.
Young said he initially injured the thumb while catching a ball awkwardly, and he aggravated it when he took an awkward swing while striking out in the eighth inning on Monday night.
"I tweaked something in there, and [on Tuesday] when I woke up, it was a little stiff," Young said. "I'm just going to try and get some work done on it, and get it better."
D-backs manager Kirk Gibson offered to give Young a day off, but he declined.
"It felt a lot better [on Wednesday] when I woke up than [on Tuesday], so I'm assuming it should be fine," Young said. "It was initially more [painful] catching. Swinging, I don't really use that thumb much when I swing. It's more on a bad swing and miss or when I roll over a pitch that I feel it. It's not too bad. It's going to be fine."
Gibson: Putz's velocity down a bit lately
PHOENIX -- It's not just the results that have been troubling for D-backs closer J.J. Putz the last couple of days.
"The ball just hasn't been coming out of his hand [well]," D-backs manager Kirk Gibson said.
Putz, one of the National League's best relievers early this year, has blown saves against the Indians on Monday and Tuesday.
Gibson said that Putz's velocity has been down a bit recently, but added that part of that variation could be because of the different way ballpark radar guns are calibrated.
"In Detroit, he threw a really good inning for us. the ball was coming out," Gibson said referring to last Friday night against the Tigers. "The last couple of outings it hasn't come out as good. I think pitchers probably go through streaks like hitters do, but when you're the closer it's magnified."
- 131 wins
- 121 wins
Gibson checks with Putz each day to see how he's feeling and so far the right-hander has not complained of any problems. Putz had a 1.57 ERA through his first 22 appearances, but so far in 12 June games he has a 6.17 mark.
"He's had a couple of rocky outings," Gibson said. "We'll talk to him, see what's going on. We need to get him back to how he was prior to this month."

(FT) Mohamed El-Erian—Confirmed: America's jobs crisis
Friday's disappointing jobs report will...worsen Washington's highly polarised politics. Already, initial reaction from there suggest that, rather than act as a catalyst to bring the political class together to address a persistent national problem, the numbers are fueling conflicting political narratives and greater polarisation – thereby reducing further the probability of any timely convergence towards the type of common analysis and common vision that are needed.
With virtually all government entities essentially paralysed by political gridlock, the Federal Reserve will soon confront yet another lose-lose policy dilemma. Does it renew its unconventional activism using inevitably blunt tools that involve a growing set of collateral damage and intended consequences; or does it stick to the sidelines and watch the economy weaken further in the summer?

Proposed Internet Integration Business Process
The focus of the data integration process is facilitate accurate and timely data integration to the Framework database while minimizing the amount of time that has to be spent by the Integrator on validating data and resolving errors. A Cadastral Data Transfer Standard is being developed to allow consistent exchange of data over the Internet. Procedures are also being written to validate data by transaction, authority, jurisdiction, and history. Data Developers will have to write procedures to move data into the data transfer standard template and retrieve data from the production database into their own proprietary database. The Integrator will be able to spend more time on helping Developers become Providers.
An overview of the integration process starts with the check-out of data from the production framework database.
Data Developer: Develops proprietary data sets.
Data Provider: Develops metadata for proprietary data sets.
Develops conversion procedures from proprietary data sets to the data transfer standard.
Shares data maintained within jurisdiction and authority.
Data Integrator: Assists Providers with developing conversion procedures to the data transfer standard.
Verifies data validation after data is checked in.
Notifies Providers of integration errors and conflict problems.
Data Steward: Reviews metadata for proprietary data sets.
Determines authority and jurisdiction of Provider for integrating data into the Framework database.
Resolves data conflicts.
Database Administrator: Maintains the Framework database.
Backs up the Framework database.
Recovers the Framework database from the back-up.
Data User: Obtains data from the Framework database.
Data Development
Data is developed by federal, state, county, city, tribal, and private organizations in the normal operations of their proprietary databases. A Data Developer should indicate an interest in providing data for integration into the Framework. Framework Data Stewards must evaluate the extent to which any proprietary data set may be integrated. To make this evaluation, metadata for the proprietary data set to be integrated should be developed by the Data Developer. The Data Integrator will provide information on how to put proprietary data into the data transfer standard which can be integrated into the Framework database. The Data Steward must also determine the authority and jurisdiction of the Data Developer. The Data Developer must write procedures based on Data Integrator input to convert their proprietary data into the transfer standard. The Data Developer is then ready to integrate their data using the data maintenance process. The data transfer standard should be the same as the data export format used for distributing data over the Internet. Encourage data development contracts with surveyors to include contribution to framework.
Business Process
Developer: Notifies the Data Integrator that there is data which may be included in the Framework database, and provides metadata.
Integrator: Provides information and recommendations on how to convert over to the Cadastral Data Transfer Standard from the proprietary data set.
Developer: Develops routines to convert/format data to the Cadastral Data Transfer Standard.
Framework Data Sets
Surveys Steward
Legal Description Areas
Boundary Lines
Corner Points
Geodetic Points
Land Records Steward
Parcel Transactions
Record Documents
Agency Steward
Governmental Units
Administrative Areas
Provider Certification
Data Developers must be certified for their authority and jurisdiction to become Data Providers. The authority determines which data sets may be updated. The jurisdiction determines the geographical extent of the data sets which may be updated. Data Stewards will have to make the determination of the extent of data which will be accepted by the Framework database on a regular basis. This will allow automation of the data maintenance and integration processes. Partners will be notified of Provider Certifications.
Business Process
Integrator: Passes on Developer interest and metadata to the Data Stewards.
Steward: Decides to accept data from the Developer.
Determines the authority and jurisdiction of the Provider.
Notify partners of Provider Certification
Partners Review provider certification for accuracy.
Jurisdictions are in terms of legal area descriptions.
Own land holdings
Entrusted land holdings
Certification Requirements
Partner Agreement
Staff qualifications
Staff Qualifications
New information accepted without qualifications.
Professional Land Surveyor are required for the authority to update corner points and geodetic points.
Providers may update their own data allowed without qualifications.
Data Maintenance
Data maintenance can be done by Data Providers who have developed their proprietary databases based on the data transfer standard, or who have developed routines to format their data in the data transfer standard. Multiple transfer data standards should be developed including shape file, export coverage, and AutoCAD.
Maintenance will be on a 30 day update cycle. Data providers will have until the end of the cycle to complete their edits. The check out would automatically be canceled after 30 days. The data provider would have to check out the data set again to keep the check-out active. Data older than current would be retired on check-in. Longer maintenance cycles may be needed.
Business Process
Provider: Checks out a data set.
Framework: Locks the checked out area.
Notifies other data providers about the check-out.
Provider: Makes data set updates.
Must include data set metadata.
Checks in data set to staging area before the end of the cycle.
Notifies data integrator.
Framework: Checks the update cycle daily and cancels all data set check-outs that have expired
Unlocks all checked out areas.
Data Integration (Self Integration)
Validate the current update sets. Hierarchical approach to check-in and validation of features. It may be possible to fully automate acceptance of land record updates. Check plots and reports are specific to each data set. In self integration, the data provider would contact the data provider who is the current owner of dat in the database. The ownership information would come form the audit fields which show who updated a file row last and when it was last updated. The two data providers with conflicting data would have to decide which data should be retired and which should be included in the database.
Business Process
Framework: Validates the updated data set.
Creates check plots for legal description, boundary, and corner transactions.
Notifies Provider and previous Provider of data conflicts.
Provider: Contacts previous Provider to discuss conflict resolution.
Contacts Steward to arbitrate if necessary.
Steward: Arbitrates data conflicts if necessary.
Assigns temporary access keys to check conflict data in.
Provider: Marks data with override accept or decline.
Checks data in with the Steward key.
Integrator: Approves the data set check-in.
Cuts out any portion that has a problem and checks in remainder.
Framework: Retires old records to the off-line database.
Inserts new records to the Framework database.
Unlocks the checked in area.
Notifies users of the check-in.
Data Integration
Validate the current update sets. Hierarchical approach to check-in and validation of features. It may be possible to fully automate acceptance of land record updates. Updates to legal area descriptions, boundaries and corners require integrator review. Check plots and reports are specific to each data set.
Business Process
Framework: Validates the updated data set.
Prints check plots for legal description, boundary, and corner transactions.
Integrator: Approves the data set check-in.
Cuts out any portion that has a problem and checks in remainder.
If any integration or conflict problems exist, then extends the check-out.
Framework: Retires old records to the off-line database.
Inserts new records to the Framework database.
Unlocks the checked in area.
Data Integration Problem Resolution
Data integration problems occur where the data set that a Data Provider is checking in will not fit into the current data schema. Something is wrong with the Provider's data conversion routine, or the transfer standard has changed.
Business Process
Integrator: If any integration or conflict problems exist, then extends the check-out.
Notifies the Data Provider of any data set integration problems with passing standards.
Provider: Makes updates in the data set to pass standards.
Checks the data set back in.
Data Conflict Resolution
Data conflicts occur where the data set that the Data Provider is checking in is does not logically fit back into the Framework database. Examples include updates that are older than the most recent update currently in the Framework database, data sets which are outside the area of jurisdiction of the Data Provider, or data sets that are outside of the authority of the data provider. The Data Integrator must work with the Data Provider and other Providers/Data Stewards to resolve the data conflicts. Retire features that are not accepted as current to the historical database.
Business Process
Integrator: If any integration or conflict problems exist, then extends the check-out.
Notifies the Data Provider of any data set conflict problems.
Works with the Data Provider and others to resolve data conflicts.
Provider: Explains the significance of providing data outside of the expected allowed range of values.
Steward: Determines whether the update is allowable, must be retired, or must be changed before the update will be allowed.
Conflict Situations
Accepted corner challenged.
Older data to supercede newer.
Data Backup and Recovery
The Framework Database Administrator will incrementally back up the Framework database on a transaction basis, fully back up the database on a monthly basis, and test recovery of the back-up every 6 months.
Administrator: Backs up the Framework database.
Tests the recovery of the Framework database.
Recovers the Framework database if it goes down.
Cadastral Data Transfer Standard and Framework Database Change Control
Once formalized, the Washington Cadastral Data Transfer Standard and the Framework database will not change without review by the Project Partners. There must be a sound business or technical need to change the standard. A business need might be additional attributes necessary to conduct business between partners; a technical need might be changes in the GIS vendor's software or file configuration. Change proposals will be published on the partner web page and distributed by e-mail. Change reviews will be allowed 30 days. The change may also be reviewed by the Technical Coordination Group once other projects are developed to a point where they are relying on cadastral data. Coordination of framework projects schedules will help determine when that transition will happen.
Partner: Proposes a change in the data transfer standard.
Integrator: Distributes the change request to other Partners and/or Technical Coordination Task Group for review.
Partners: Approve/disapprove the change.

Emergency crews responded to a fire at Red Roof Inn near 66th and I-27 in Lubbock shortly before 11 a.m. Thursday morning.
According to scanner traffic, first responders initially suspected a possible meth lab could be the cause and were attempting to take appropriate precautions.
However, the Lubbock Fire Department discovered the actual cause of the blaze to be a trash can fire, according to Dep. Fire Marshal, Robert Loveless.
Though it seemed excessive for four fire trucks and three ambulances to be called to the scene, Loveless said that is standard procedure for a motel fire. He said there are a lot of occupants to consider and some may have been asleep at the time of the fire. Loveless also stated that they have had to deal with meth labs in hotels in Lubbock starting fires, so they wanted to take all the necessary precautions.
Loveless said the fire broke out in an unoccupied room and no one was injured.

By the end of that September, Khalifi was no longer speaking in "nebulous" terms, the FBI agent said. He was doing research on the Internet to justify his desire to engage in jihad overseas and was willing to die for the cause in Afghanistan or for the Palestinians.
Khalifi next told Hussien that he wanted weapons training and had his eye on attacking an office building in Alexandria, Va., that he thought housed military offices. The news concerned FBI officials, who ramped up surveillance of Khalifi to ensure that he didn't try to launch an attack on his own and without the knowledge of undercover agents.
In December, Hussien took Khalifi to a comrade in Baltimore, a person the undercover agent promised could help in his quest for jihad. The other man, who called himself "Yussef," was also an FBI agent. During the encounter, the men handled an AK-47, and Khalifi discussed his desire to shoot someone at the office building or to blow it up.
A week later, Khalifi started talking about attacking a synagogue or killing a U.S. Army general leaving his house. Then he wanted to leave a bomb at Aria Pizzeria, a restaurant at the Ronald Reagan Building in downtown Washington. He and Hussien ate lunch at the spot, where Hussien told Khalifi that he and Yussef were members of al-Qaida.
At nearly every meeting, FBI agents said, Hussien asked Khalifi whether he was sure he wanted to launch an attack and whether there was a more peaceful way to engage in jihad than killing people. In past investigations, other suspects have walked away from similar plots and not been charged, FBI officials said.
At one point, Khalifi became so frustrated by the questions that he told the undercover agent to "stop asking him if he wanted to do this," the case's lead agent said.

ZNet Commentary: Strange Dreams December 31, 2006*
I keep having the same two crazy dreams. I'm just not sure what they
mean. In the first dream, George W. Bush becomes obsessed with
disproving the charge that he's a "chicken hawk" – a military hawk who has never
seen or experienced military action and its terrible consequences. He
has a vision from God. It comes to him in prayer. He orders his staff
to call up the Pentagon and arrange for him to be flown to Iraq to
participate in a night patrol. "Make it a dangerous one," he says. He
reaches into his bottom desk drawer for a bottle of whiskey.
"This will show the world I'm not a wimp like they said my Dad was,"
Bush thinks to himself. "Hell, I'm going to lead this SURGE myself."
The Army sets him up with a unit three miles outside the U.S. base in
the Iraqi town of Ramadi. He climbs into a moderately well-armored
Humvee. Ten minutes into his adventure, with sweat pouring down from under
his helmet and the smell of bourbon on his breath, the Decider hears a
loud explosion.
Everything goes quiet and numb. His head is swimming. There's a
bright shining light. Soldiers and medical staff are yelling, but he can't
hear a word they're saying. Everyone around him is staring at him in
horror. Some are looking down to where his legs used to be. Bush looks
down himself and sees two bloody stumps. "It's so unreal," he thinks,
"why don't I feel anything?"
He starts to lose consciousness but is jolted back awake by a sharper
pain than he ever knew existed. He looks over to see a badly injured
soldier. The soldier couldn't be more than 18 years old. He's lost half
of his face.
The soldier turns to the dying president and says, "so what did you
think was going to happen, asshole?"
A band is playing "Onward Christian Soldiers" somewhere off in the distance.
It's dressed up in suits of armor like the ones worn by the Medieval Knights portrayed in those
recruiting advertisements the Armed Forces used to put on
television. Bush's last sensation on earth is the feeling of his shrunken soul
being sucked down into the molten center of the earth. He hears the
laughter of Osama bin Laden. I hear a Jimi Hendrix riff from "All Along
the Watchtower" or is it "Purple Haze."
The dream ends.
The other dream is less historically specific. It's set in Texas and
involves Laura Bush. Texas still has a lot of oil, which makes me think
it's set in the past. And the First Lady is a teenage girl, which
would put things back in the early Sixties. But the surroundings look
contemporary and even futuristic, strictly 21st century.
Anyway, in my dream young Laura Welch is driving her father's Lexus
(it's definitely not the Sixties) up to an intersection in Midland, Texas.
She sees Michael Dutton Douglas – the high school classmate she killed
with her car (by running a stop sign) on November 6, 1963 and and
tries to warn him. She's about to scream, "Watch out, Mike, I'm coming to
kill you," when she's stopped in her tracks by the angry voice of an
Asian soldier.
He's yelling at her in Chinese. He's saying, "STOP" and
"HALT" and "THIS IS A CHECK POINT" but she doesn't understand a word. She
turns her car to the left and sees more Chinese soldiers yelling and
now pointing their guns at her. She becomes frightened and confused.
She tries to hit the brakes but she hits the accelerator instead.
A single shot from a Chinese AK-47 pierces her skull. She dies
instantly as her car crashes into a gas station pump and explodes. It's all
caught on tape.
The soldier who killed her is relieved. He's been in Texas for two
weeks and still hasn't had an "insurgent K.I.A." ("killed in action").
His comrades had been starting to give him a hard time. "Nice shot,
Yao," one of his fellow soldiers says. "It's about time. Way to waste a
Starch Face."
The scene shifts to Beijing, where the wife of the Chinese head of
state is being interviewed by a reporter. The First Lady of China denies
that her nation's occupation of the Southwestern United States –
conducted with a coalition of forces that includes tens of thousands of
Mexican soldiers determined to avenge the seizure of Mexican lands by the
U.S. during the late 1840s (after the Mexican-American War) – is motivated
by an imperial Chinese desire to control North American oil. She says
the occupation is going much better than the Chinese people know. "The
media," she says, is making things look worse than they really are.
Then I see Michael Dutton Douglas. He's making an improvised explosive
device of some sort. The slaughter of Laura Welch (who he had recently
dated) has turned him into a national independence fighter. The bumper
sticker on his car reads "Don't Mess with Texas."
A missile from a Chinese drone blows him up. An entire apartment building goes up in
flames, killing 24 innocent civilians. That makes for 1.5 million American
dead since the occupation began…on November 6, 2023.
The Americans' deaths and identities are unmentioned in China's leading
newspaper of record's daily "Names of the Dead" feature. The only
victims recorded in that section are the sturdy peasant sons and daughters
who have given their lives in China's inherently noble struggle to
defeat the "terrorist" enemies of "civilization" in (just coincidentally)
oil-rich Texas.
Then I'm sitting in an out of the way Beijing coffee shop listening to
Hendrix and talking to somebody who calls herself an anarchist.
We both agree that nobody seems to care about all those faceless,
nameless American victims of Chinese foreign policy.
I know these dreams are whacked out. George W. Bush would never be
caught, well, dead doing anything actually dangerous in Iraq. He and the
rest of the imperial "elite" believe that they are too privileged and
precious to actually put their bodies on the line for the criminal
policies they advance. It's the job of poorer and darker Americans to die
for their high-state lies. I don't think Bush going to start
drinking or coking-up again.
The notion of China having the capacity to invade and occupy part of
the U.S. is just as preposterous. And of course Texas tapped out most of
its oil along time ago. I don't know if Michael Dutton Douglas had
small munitions potential. I don't think they allow Hendrix to played in
China. And I don't believe in Hell (or Heaven).
But dreams aren't about rational thought. And these ones must come
from somewhere. I wonder where.
* Ok, this went out as a ZNet Sustainer Commentary on New Year's Eve. It's the one I started to put and then took down when I realized it was going up as a Sustainer piece. I don't usually post such pieces on the blog but thought I'd make an exception for this. It's a few days later. It got a big response and has been around the Web a bit.
No, I did not actually have these "dreams," of course. I can't honestly call the first one a "nightmare."
This piece is just a simple exercise in world-systemic moral inversion meant to encourage American readers to think outside the imperial box and develop a sharper and more empathetic sense of what United States actions look like to targeted global others.

Given Vancouver's recent history, you'd be excused for thinking that the Canucks had sent their European scouts to a figurative Siberia instead of the literal one: since the chronological odometer turned over, Russians have played fewer than 300 games here, and the bulk of those were by utility player Artem Chubarov. So the list of potential Immortals is bound to be limited, right?
Well, that's if you hadn't heard a certain something about a short, stocky dude getting his jersey retired, despite only playing here for seven years...
And you forgot a 50-goal scorer who spent his time here at a point-per-game pace...
And you're too young to remember a certain ageless wonder who excelled internationally and professionally for literal decades...
The rest of us know where this is going, so let's get to the nominees!
Pavel Bure
Yeah, not a stretch to have a two time 60 goal scorer here. He may have left on bad terms with management, but he went out on 51 goals in his final season here. He was frequently injured, but when he was on the ice he was one of the few players, league wide, that could make you stand every time he crossed the blue line. Heck, if you didn't stand up when he crossed centre, odds were pretty good you would miss something. Speed kills, but only when combined with incredibly fast hands: his 779 points in 702 games is a point-per-game pace that leaves other Canucks in the dust. He's also got far and away the most short handed goals by a single player. Fast, dangerous, and scared of nothing, everyone who's seen him play has their own Bure story.
Alexander Mogilny
Yes, Virginia, there was a time when we had two brilliant Russian scorers in our lineup at the same time! Mogilny showed up just in time for Bure to have his most injury-prone season - and put up 55 goals and 107 points as a result. Despite just 312 games in a Canucks uniform, he's fourth in short handed goals (13), twenty-first in points (308), and fifteenth in goals (139). Those don't sound like impressive positions, but this was in 312 games on a team that's been around for 40 years!
Igor Larionov
When you're this smart, they call you "Professor". Larionov was hailed as the Russian Gretzky for how he thought the game well before he ever made it to North America, and did nothing to dissuade fans when he hit Vancouver's ice. He spent all too little time here (a mere 210 games) because of a soap opera involving transfer payments, the Russian Hockey Federation, and shady deals; but when he was here he made anyone he played with better, racking up 51 goals and 92 assists during his brief tenure. Here's how valuable he was: when Detroit lost him to Florida as a free agent, they traded for the 40-year old before half the season was over.
That first guy is a tough act to follow, but the other two are fine picks in their own right - and if you missed Larionov's international play, just look up some clips of the terrifying KLM line at work!
Other Russians considered were... uh... have I mentioned Vancouver's recent history with Russians?

Biodiesel Advocates Stand Up for Strong Renewable Fuels Policy
Biodiesel advocates were on Capitol Hill Tuesday to urge Congress to support a strong Renewable Fuel Standard. More than one-hundred biodiesel producers, distributors and feedstock suppliers representing more than two dozen states were participating in the Hill visit. Todd Ellis of Seattle-based Imperium Renewables says the petroleum lobby is making a lot of noise about renewable fuels and biodiesel advocates wanted to make sure Congress hears the other side of the story. He says the RFS is working and a new American fuels industry is being built that is creating jobs, producing cleaner fuel and ultimately helping consumers. The group reminded Congress that biodiesel is an EPA-designated Advanced Biofuel that is exceeding RFS targets with two consecutive years of one-billion gallon production.
The biodiesel leaders - in town for an annual membership meeting of the National Biodiesel Board - also advocated for a long-term extension of the biodiesel tax incentive. The incentive is slated to expire again at the end of the year. NBB Vice President of Federal Affairs Anne Steckel says no matter how much domestic oil and gas is found through fracking or new drilling - consumers will continue getting hurt by unstable global petroleum markets until we develop alternatives to oil. She says that's why Congress passed the RFS in the first place - and why we can't let up on these goals now.
Biodiesel is the first and only commercial-scale fuel produced across the U.S. to meet the EPA's definition of Advanced Biofuel. That means the EPA has determined it reduces greenhouse gas emissions by more than 50-percent when compared with petroleum diesel. Biodiesel is produced in nearly every state in the U.S. and supported some 50-thousand jobs nationwide last year.

"Stop and Look (And You Have Found Love)" featuring William Hart [Video]
Hip-hop meets old soul, by Adrian Younge Presents the Delfonics
(Watch it on Vimeo.)
© 2012 Wax Poetics Records
Director: David Wong
Director of Photography: Mark Austin
Editor: Adrian Younge
Starring: William Hart, with Saudia Mills
On an initial phone call during the summer of 2011, two artists quickly struck up a friendship. A few weeks later, William Hart—the lead singer of Philly's quintessential sweet-soul group, the Delfonics—hopped on a plane bound for Adrian Younge's Los Angeles studio for the first of two sessions. The two would write and record relentlessly for a week, realizing Younge's vision of a modern-day Delfonics album. One of the first tracks recorded was "Stop and Look (And You Have Found Love)," which features Hart on lead, with Saudia Mills and Om'mas Keith on backing vocals. Electricity was in the air that day.
When the song was being discussed as the first single, Hart let it be known that he had always wanted a music video, something that artists of his generation generally missed out on. "I've always said, if we had videos back in our time," Hart muses, "when we had our eighteen top chartbusters, there would be no tellin' how big the Delfonics would have been." Selling millions of records ain't peanuts, but you get his drift.
When Younge began to write the script, he conceived of a way to connect the different generations visually. "The Delfonics have been sampled by many hip-hop artists," says Adrian, "from the Fugees to Wu-Tang; these guys have had a long connection with hip-hop. The director, David Wong, and I wanted to touch on that in this video. It represents a time when the underground hip-hop culture united through fashion, DJing, graffiti, rapping, dancing, and the knowledge of hip-hop itself."
The video features William Hart as well as Saudia Mills, who sings with William on much of the upcoming full-length album (due out March 12, 2013, on Wax Poetics Records).
Making a cameo in the film as a dancer, Younge sought to capture that early '90s era of hip-hop, and even shot in 16mm black-and-white film as a nod to the obscure PBS-aired 1992 documentary about freestyle dancers in New York, Wreckin' Shop – Live from Brooklyn. "Dance crews like NYC's Elite Force/Mop Tops and California's own Soul Brothers, Scheme Team, and the Pharcyde were paramount in spreading the culture around the world," Younge says. "That being said, this video not only pays homage to William Hart's legacy, but also shows respect to the crews I admired as a young freestyle dancer."
"Adrian has been able to capture the old feeling of the early '90s," mentions Bootie Brown of the Pharcyde. "The black-and-white increases the feeling of the clubs; it also adds that grit to the smooth ballad tones of the Delfonics. Those headphones she is wearing are not Beats by Dre…very classy. The dancing adds that much more flavor."
To achieve the feel of the early '90s, Younge and Wong started with the look, recruiting George Nguyen and Rudy Diedrick for wardrobe help. "Cali had a huge underground hip-hop scene in the early '90s," Deidrick says, "and this is how I remember the parties. Back then, we had a legendary hip-hop spot [in Los Angeles] called Unity. Not everyone was rockin' 'Lo, because they had crews that rocked exclusive brands like Nautica, Champion, Starter, Tommy, et cetera. We would go there dressed up to see who could really outdo each other, but it was not just about fashion, it was also about the hip-hop culture."
"This video reminds me alot of Alive TV Wreckin' Shop," recognizes legendary Mop Top/Elite Force Crew dancer Buddha Stretch, who was in the 1992 documentary. "The art of rocking Ralph Lauren is a lost one! This captures the golden era of hip-hop seamlessly… The entire clip is a tribute to NYC's rich history in freestyle."
"Old school Polo was simply the fly shit during the golden era of hip-hop," says A-Plus of Souls of Mischief. "That's how we did it around our way. Dress code. Young people get a lot of the flyness by looking back into times when things were different artistically, and adding their twist. That's been going on forever. When kids check this vid out, they'll be able to see not only the differences but also how some things are constant."
"This particular piece of music and the video represents at least two generations of coming together for the love of music and culture," comments DJ Rhettmatic of the Beat Junkies. "The Delfonics represents that classic soul era from the '60s and '70s that our older generation has grown up listening to. Adrian Younge represents the generation that grew up on the classic '90s golden era of hip-hop, yet has the knowledge and the aesthetics of the '60s/'70s musical era, from a young Los Angeleano point of view. This video shows and flips the meaning of 'Old to the New.'
"It reminds me of the early days of Unity," Rhett continues, "the premier Los Angeles hip-hop club event during the '90s, when who's who of hip-hop like the Wu-Tang Clan, the Beatnuts, Jeru Tha Damaja, Nas, the Boot Camp Click, just to name a few, would rock the mic, while freestyle dancers who bust crazy dance moves in a circle, up-and-coming emcees would rock in cyphers on the side, while the DJ would play the hottest songs and dopest breaks throughout the night. And Unity was the place were you had to earn your stripes and get your props. Rest in Peace, Bigga B."
"This video and this song is sorely needed in hip-hop today!" states DJ Mark Luv of the Zulu Nation. "It shows a time of hip-hop when we didn't take ourselves so seriously. We focused on the content of the music, our style of dress, our style of hair, and how much fun we could have in the party—whether it was busting out a fresh dance move or seeing that fly girl, this video represents that to the fullest. It reminds me of Unity in the '90s. And being one of the original DJs at Unity, with my man Bigga B (RIP) and Orlando, there are not too many things I can say brings the essence of what Unity was about. This video hits the mark beautifully without taking away the fact that he has a legendary group that's the star of the video. What if the '60s met the '90s? The question has been answered. Big up!"
"This reminds me of the days when the Soul Brothers started venturing into the original soul music to elevate our boogie skills," says Legendary 1 of the aforementioned dance crew. "Samples were not enough; we needed the whole meal, for real, Playboy. We always listened to it all the time, but when we started to boogie to it, that bridged the gap between the late '60s, '70s, and '90s, and our audience grew. The Delfonics represent the smooth hip-hoppers, the fly hip-hoppers, and the around the way girls."
KCRW DJ Garth Trinidad comments further: "This video is historically relevant in its profound, exquisite illustration of closing generational gaps that plague jazz, blues, rock and roll, and hip-hop cultures." Detroit producer Black Milk concludes, "Nineties visuals with '60s soul as the soundtrack equals timeless music and Nautica jackets—dope video."
"I compare seeing this video with me riding down the street and hearing my first record on the radio," William Hart says thoughtfully. "It's like I was dreaming.
"I am fascinated by the simple fact that I did a video with all of these beautiful young people and they accept me. It's something that I've never had before. Knowing that I am the only one from my era that has a video is very special. It's like a dream come true."
The single is out now on limited-edition red vinyl and iTunes.

The Yorkton Harvest of the SMAAAHL hit the road this past weekend for three games in three nights in their first action since December 19.
The first night saw the Harvest drop a 5-2 decision to the Beardy's Blackhawks at the Willow Cree Memorial Sport Centre in Duck Lake. Game two was much the same as the Harvest fell 7-3 to the Saskatoon Blazers at the Harold Latrace Arena in Saskatoon.
However the Harvest managed to end the road trip on a positive note, edging the Saskatoon Blazers 4-3 in overtime to move seven points clear of the Blazers for the eighth and final playoff spot with 14 games remaining in the SMAAAHL season.
Friday against Beardy's
The Harvest showed some Christmas rust against the Beardy's Blackhawks on Friday, losing 5-2 in a game that had been rescheduled from November third.
Blackhawks' Nicholas Shumlanski opened the scoring for the home side when he accepted the pass from Yorkton Terriers prospect Adam Santoro and beat Carson Bogdan for a 1-0 lead.
The 1-0 lead looked as if it would hold up for the first period, however a late Harvest goal by Brennan Watson, his fifth of the season, evened the score with just 24 seconds left in the opening frame.
Ashton Wake restored the Blackhawks lead with 14:06 remaining in the second period before Connor Navrot made it 3-1 with 7:37 remaining to put Beardy's up 3-1.
Turner Ottenbreit, fresh off of his seven game stint with the WHL's Saskatoon Blades, cut the Blackhawks lead to just one with his fifth goal of the campaign but Beardy's regained their two-goal advantage when Logan Schatz put the puck past Bogdan to make it 4-2.
Wake made it 5-2 with an empty net goal to seal the deal for the Blackhawks as the Harvest opened their three game road trip with a 5-2 loss.
Saturday in Saskatoon
Things looked good for the Harvest as they took a two goal lead in the first period on goals by Jaden Kreklewich and Tanner Jeannot, but the Saskatoon Blazers special teams came to life later in the frame with a shorthanded goal by Curran Reeve and a powerplay marker from David Sheppard to make the score 2-2 after 20 minutes.
Saskatoon took the lead on their second powerplay goal of the game when Lane Pederson put the puck past Carson Bogdan to make it 3-2 just three minutes into the second period.
Riley Braun increased the Blazers lead to two five minutes later when his shot eluded Bogdan for a 4-2 Blazers lead.
Saskatoon continued to fire pucks into the Harvest net in the third period as Sheppard potted his second goal of the game just over a minute into the third to chase Bogdan from the net. Replacing Bogdan was Kinsmen Terrier call up Rylan Palchewich.
The Blazers tested Palchewich early and often and just 40 seconds into his SMAAAHL debut Palchewich was digging the puck out of his net as Reese Johnson made it 6-2 for Saskatoon.
Levin Morin cut the Blazers lead to three with his third goal of the season but the deficit proved too much for the Harvest as they fell 7-3 to the Saskatoon Blazers.
Sunday's victory
The Harvest took to the ice on Sunday in hopes of salvaging one win on their road trip.
Damian Bentz opened the scoring for the Harvest, putting his fourth goal of the season, this one via the powerplay, past Blazers netminder Austin Swystun for a 1-0 Harvest lead.
The Harvest powerplay clicked again later in the first period when Turner Ottenbreit's blast beat Swystun to make it 2-0 for the Harvest after one period.
The powerplay fired up again as Ottenbreit's seventh goal of the season, and third of the road trip, gave the Harvest a three goal lead early in the second period.
The Blazers got one back when Nick Lenius beat Carson Bogdan to make it 3-1 with two minutes remaining in the middle frame.
Shane Sherban made it a one goal game with just 38 seconds left in the second period to cut the lead to 3-2 after 40 minutes of play.
An Adam Neibrandt tripping penalty gave the Blazers powerplay a chance to even the score and even the score they did. David Sheppard scored just 37 seconds into the man advantage to erase his teams deficit and even the score at three for the duration of regulation.
It seemed as if the Harvest's old nemesis, penalties, would once again cost the Harvest a game when Chase McKersie was sent to the penalty box for two minutes for holding in overtime. However the Harvest penalty kill dug deep and killed off the penalty, enabling Harvest captain Corwin Stevely to gather up the puck and beat Swystun for the game-winning-goal with just 1:11 remaining in overtime.
The win snaps a four game losing streak, something that Harvest head coach Dan Cross hopes will give his team some momentum heading into their next game. "I think just the way we won where we blew a three goal lead and then we took a penalty in overtime which we collectively killed off and then eventually won will help us gain some confidence," said Cross following the 4-3 Harvest overtime win. "When you get on those losing streaks and the bounces don't go your way you it's tough, but now it's over.
"Now that we've got that win and now that we've got that one bounce we needed, I think the confidence will be there and maybe we won't be gripping our sticks quite as hard as we have been in these next games."
Cross also mentioned how important the return of both Ottenbreit, who spent seven games with the WHL's Saskatoon Blades, and Stevely, who had a cup of coffee with the SJHL's Yorkton Terriers, has been for his club. "Turner (Ottenbreit) had a heck of a game on Sunday with three points and Corwin (Stevely) again running the powerplay off the half wall did an amazing job for us all weekend. That's definitely something we want to continue to build on."
"That experience that they get is invaluable for these guys and that's what we're trying to do is get them to the next level but for them to return and bring that intensity into our game is a definite help and hopefully that will spread throughout the team."
Next action
The next game for the Yorkton Harvest (10-14-4-2) will be tonight when they host the third place Notre Dame Argos (22-6-2-0) at the Farrell Agencies Arena. Puck drop is set for 8:00p.m.
