Dale Larson, 75 - April 08, 2009
Dale Robert Larson, 75, of Gothenburg died Tuesday, March 24, 2009, at Kearney.
Services were held at Banner United Methodist Church on Tuesday, March 31, with the Rev. Janie Freeman officiating. Interment followed at Fort McPherson National Cemetery at Maxwell.
Larson was born Sept. 30, 1933, at Gothenburg, son of Laurence August Larson and Ethel Mae (Jagger) Larson.
He graduated from Gothenburg High School in 1952 and entered the United States Air Force where he served his country for 22 years in Vietnam and Europe.
While in the service, he received his bachelor degree in oceanography from a Florida university. He specialized in nuclear weapons and was a guidance systems lead tech for missile systems at Cape Girardau. He also served an extended tour in Vietnam and was chief inspector for the microwave relay stations throughout Europe.
After retiring from the Air Force, Larson returned to the family farm where he worked as a television and electronic installation and service technician. At that time, he also gave care to his father who was terminally ill. Later, he was the primary care-giver for his mother during her extended illness.
Larson lived a half-mile north of the Banner Methodist Church and was a life-time supporter. He was an avid reader and enjoyed tinkering on anything electronic, according to family members. He also enjoyed his two cats, Charlie and Blue, as well as enjoying music, especially classical and big band.
He was preceded in death by: his mother, Ethel Mae Mahan; his father, Laurence August Larson; an infant brother, Gene Norman Larson.
Survivors include: his sister, Maridee Boots of Killeen, TX; a niece, Charlotte L. Poss; great-nephew, Dallas J. Davis; great-niece, Brooklyn M. Davis; many extended relatives.
Memorials are suggested to the Banner Methodist Church and the Gothenburg Senior Center.
Online condolences may be sent to the family at www.blase strauser.com. Arrangements have been placed in the care of Blase-Strauser Memorial Chapel of Gothenburg.

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announced its top health official's "resignation" Friday despite the fact that he was already scheduled to retire in 2014 and has a replacement lined up, records reveal.
VA Secretary Eric Shinseki accepted Friday the "resignation" of Under Secretary for Health Affairs Robert Petzel amid a growing scandal about VA secret waiting lists and deadly wait times for veterans.
"Today, I accepted the resignation of Dr. Robert Petzel, Under Secretary for Health in the Department of Veterans Affairs," Shinseki said in a statement. "As we know from the Veteran community, most Veterans are satisfied with the quality of their VA health care, but we must do more to improve timely access to that care."
But Petzel was already scheduled to retire.
"Following a 40-year career serving Veterans as a VA physician, teacher, and administrator, Dr. Robert A. Petzel, will retire in 2014 as planned, following a four-year tenure as Under Secretary for Health," according to a Sept. 20, 2013 VA press release obtained by The Daily Caller.
President Obama announced his intent to nominate Jeffrey A. Murawsky as Petzel's replacement in a May 1, 2014 White House press release.
House Committee on Veterans Affairs chairman Rep. Jeff Miller noticed and commented on the fraudulent resignation.
"Today's announcement from VA regarding Undersecretary for Health Robert Petzel's 'resignation' is the pinnacle of disingenuous political doublespeak," Miller said in a statement.
"Petzel was already scheduled to retire in 2014 and President Obama has already announced his intention to nominate Petzel's replacement, so characterizing this as a 'resignation' just doesn't pass the smell test," Miller said. "Desperate to get ahead of a delays in care crisis that is growing by the day, yet apparently unwilling to take substantive actions to hold any of its leaders accountable for negligence that harms veterans, VA has resorted to what it does best: splitting semantic hairs to create the illusion of accountability and progress. After yesterday's out-of-touch performance from Sec. Shinseki, I was disappointed. Today, I am even more disillusioned."

Tis the season for Girl Scout cookie sales, and all across the country, tiny uniformed pushers are camping out in front of markets and big-box stores to peddle their addictive treats. You may think you know everything about Thin Mints and Caramel deLites. Well, here are a few facts that may enlighten you:
1. The first Girl Scout cookies were sold in Muskogee, Oklahoma, in 1917, when troops baked cookies and sold them in high schools as a service project. These pioneers had no idea what they had just unleashed on the United States.
2. The ingredients for a Girl Scout cookie were very simple in 1922: Butter, sugar, eggs, milk, vanilla, flour, salt, and baking powder. That's a far cry from today's exotic Mango Crèmes with Nutrifusion, which feature a food concentrate made with shitake mushrooms. (Anyone want to bet these won't make a return appearance in 2014?)
3. In 1933, you could get a box of 44 cookies for just 23 cents.
4. Life was rough in the early 1940s; not only was there a world war raging, but there were also no Girl Scout cookies to be found. Due to shortages of sugar, butter, and flour, the Scouts sold calendars instead.
5. Today, one-quarter of all Girl Scout cookie sales are Thin Mints. There's just something about the chocolate and mint combination that is unbeatable (that, and the fact that Thin Mints have the most cookies in a box).
6. Two licensed bakeries are in charge of Girl Scout cookies: ABC Bakers and Little Brownie Bakers. That number has decreased dramatically over the years; in the 1940s there were 29 bakers, and in the 1960s, 14.
7. Depending on your local Girl Scout council (and which baker they purchased from), your cookies are either creatively named or literal: Tagalongs are also known as Peanut Butter Patties; Do-si-dos are Peanut Butter Sandwiches; and Trefoils are Shortbreads. Ever so slightly bucking the trend are Samoas/Caramel deLites.
8. If hearing the words "Girl Scout cookies" causes you to salivate, rejoice; you can download a Cookie Finder app to your iPhone or Android to pinpoint exactly where the Scouts are selling.

Electrolux named Nolan Pike Senior Vice President and General Manager for its North American cooking business.
The previous head of North American Cooking, John Terzo, is retiring after 32 years with Electrolux. Terzo has headed the division since 1996. Among his contributions to the business was leading Electrolux cooking to a number one position in North America. He is working with Pike to facilitate the transition.
Pike most recently worked for Sears as Kenmore Brand vice president and general manager. Pike also spent many years in manufacturing and led the development, launch, and product management of several notable cooking lines.
"Nolan's product knowledge and ability to merchandize complements our brand strength and our commitment to innovation," Jack Truong, president and CEO of Electrolux Major Appliances North America.
Pike holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Texas, San Antonio and an MBA from Lehigh University. He will report directly to Truong and will be a member of the company's North American leadership team. He officially joined the company on December 2 and will be based in Charlotte.

A 10-year-old Kentucky boy is being hailed as a hero after he ran back into a burning home to save his younger sister.
The fire broke out Sunday night in Newburg on Garda Avenue.
Three children and their mother went to the hospital, but all are now out and recovering.
"I didn't know where to go because the fire was standing right by me, so I couldn't go nowhere," said 6-year-old Trinity Burks.
Trinity said she will never forget the loud boom she heard Sunday night.
Mom, Stacey Holloway, said Trinity was in another room using a liquid protector spray on her shoes close to a lamp.
"I thought nothing would happen if I cleaned my shoes off, and then when I saw it sprayed into the lamp, the fire popped out of nowhere," said Trinity.
All in a panic, the family rushed to get out of their Newburg home.
"The fire came right to us, and I didn't know what to do, and it burnt my leg, so that's when I ran out and I saw Trinity needed help, so I ran back in," said 10-year-old Antione Burks.
Antione said he was not going to let flames get in the way.
"I thought, what if something bad happens to her, it might have been my fault because I am her big brother, and I have to protect her," said Antione.
Everyone was able to make it out, but all had to be taken to the hospital.
Antione and Trinity suffered first and second degree burns to their legs and arms.
The fire burned Trinity's face. She said it's her nose that hurts the most.
Mom and her two-year-old daughter, Hannah, were treated for smoke inhalation.
Their home was destroyed.
The family lost nearly everything, and for Trinity, that's starting to sink in.
"I'm really going to miss my SpongeBob toys and my cousin's phone," said Trinity.
But in the end, she's just glad her brother was there.
"When the fire started, I was happy that Antione got me and saved me and hurried up and ran back in to get me out of the fire," said Trinity.
The Okolona fire marshal confirms a liquid spray came in contact with a lamp and caused the fire.
The family is getting help from the American Red Cross.

Question & Answers
Money help please!
I had an issue with stuck socks and out of nowhere my family member was able to pick it up. Now the issue is my money, while I'm gone the ammount stays the same and only adds up if I sell collectables or if my family member is working while I'm playing. If anybody has any advice or suggestions on what I do it would be much appreciated! Please and thank you!
Answer from: candy
It might be a glitch so you might need to reinstall the game. unstall it reinstall it if you're not too far ahead but if you're really high in level try going to your running processes and completely close out the game and then try to reopen it and see if that helps. Otherwise the uninstall & reinstall might be your only option. But that will delete all the progress you have made, so if you are really far into the game try everything else possible first.
Answer from: crystal
First go to the settings and see if you have it on pause if you dont then do the thing above.
Answer from: Cake
I don't know how to fix it, but here is a cool tip for making money:
1. Find collectible in yard
2. Instead of dragging one person to collect it, drag two or even three
3. Quickly drag one person onto of the collectible, then, while they're picking it up drag the second person and so one.
4. It counts the money, so you can make twice the amount as usual!
Hope this helped a little
Answer from: skillet
If you aren't making any money then yes, it may be glitches but if you are in the beginning of the game then it is going to seem like you aren't making anything. And I have noticed in my game they don't really make a lot of money until they are old or until their kids are older and are about to leave the house. Good luck!

These little guys have been my lifesavers this summer, with all the fieldwork I've been doing in the hot hot sun. "Hydroflask" is the company's name, and they make these vacuum insulated water bottles. I have put ice in them at 5 in the morning and they still have ice floating in them when I crack into them at 3 in the afternoon–after sitting in the 100° sun with me all day long. Even after the ice melts, the water stays cool for as long as I've ever prayed attention. And when it's not getting quite as hot (say, when you're visiting Montana) the ice will stay frozen over 24 hours sometimes!
There are some tradeoffs, though, to keep in mind. They are heavier than similar sized bottles from other manufacturers, and have a smaller capacity. And more expensive (these 21 oz. bottles were each around $20).
What I've been doing is filling up my regular liter Nalgene for the morning, and breaking open the first Hydroflask when it runs out, about the time when a regular bottle would be nice and warm. Definitely nicer to have ice water than that…
And, as the title says, this little review was completely unsolicited, and the bottles were purchased by me for me with my own money, so all you government watchmen can bugger off.

ISBN M-3007-5044-6. Modern. This tango has been recorded several times in a variety of arrangements, including for clarinet and piano. In fact, in this publication the cello and violin parts diverge, highlighting the strengths and possibilities in each instrument. The left hand of the piano is very rhythmic throughout, embracing the percussive, syncopated character of the tango. The right hand sometimes supports the rhythm, sometimes the harmony, and sometimes the melody, and there is a section without the string instrument where the pianist shines. Somewhat jazzy; highly chromatic but never atonal.

Leeds hospital 'must provide evidence' heart unit is safe
The Leeds hospital where children's heart surgery was suspended still needs to convince NHS bosses its cardiac unit is safe to reopen, the Guardian newspaper reported.
Leeds hospital executives today said they were "extremely confident" surgery would resume next week, but the reopening of the unit reportedly depends on the hospital providing vital data over the weekend.
The Guardian says the hospital needs to answer questions over governance and missing data on 18 operations when they meet NHS England chiefs in the coming days.

Prior to joining the library staff, Yearwood taught for 32 years at District 80 Schools. She started out teaching fifth- and sixth-graders, but spent the last 17 years of her career teaching first grade.
She retired from District 80, but her retirement only lasted about nine months.
Before long, Yearwood became "bored" and started working as a clerk at Brehm, on the advice of a friend. The friend was also a retired teacher working part-time at the library.
"I'd always loved the library and I'd always been a patron here, ever since I was a little girl, and so I said, 'yeah, how hard can that be?' Yearwood said.
Yearwood soon discovered, though, the job was much more challenging than she'd anticipated. As a clerk, she worked in the Circulation and Genealogy Departments, performing a number of first floor duties.
But what Yearwood really wanted was to work in the Children's Department on the third floor, and after a time she got the chance to do so, working with long-time children's librarian Jacque Ross.
Later, when Ross retired after 35 years, Yearwood became the Children's Department director.
Yearwood said she's proud of many of the programs she's initiated including Books for Treats, which distributes children's books on Halloween in place of candy.
This year, her department also started an off-site Story Time reading program at local daycares.
After retirement, Yearwood said she will continue to promote the library at Jefferson County schools as a Brehm "ambassador."
The library, Yearwood said, is a great resource for the community.
"Sometimes when things are free we don't value them as much, but we have a wonderful resource here," Yearwood said. "We're always encouraging people — it's one of the best values that you can get for your tax dollar."

The Dreamnet BJ Challenge by Rebecca Gives to a Worthy Cause
Many of you have seen the videos out there that relate to a certain disease and have an associated "Ice Bucket Challenge" that goes with it. In fact, I have done the real challenge myself, but wanted to put a sexy spin on things. I have a member who has an early diagnosis of this disease and he thought this was a great idea.
I thought it would be cute if us Dreamgirls could do the same thing with a slight twist. I don't want anyone to catch a cold so I made a couple changes! My challenge is that in support of the fight against this disease, I am doing at least a 5 minute blow job video (actually around double that length) in which I can take either a facial or swallow everything. If I don't complete it, I donate $10 to the fight against this disease. In this spirit I hope each person who accepts and does this challenge will nominate 3 other girls to accept the challenge or donate to this worthy cause. If you choose to accept the challenge, you have a week to do it! Oh and of course if members want to do it or have it done to them, we'd love to see it! Let's get all the Dreamgirls to do it! So as the first, I accept this challenge, I will also of my own accord donate $250 to the cause. I would also like to nominate 3 of Dreamnet's finest to next take this challenge! Dawn Marie, Elli, and Faith … I nominate the 3 of you! Best of luck!
Watch me give this Blow Job for a worthy cause! CLICK HERE!
Actor's note: I know a couple people have suffered and lost their lives to this disease and before I go on with this update wanted to say that I have total respect and compassion for those that are suffering. This update is meant to be a sexy off-shoot and should no way be considered to be endorsed by the same disease or cause.

The transformation of Quail Hollow Clubs Green Mile is almost complete.
The second and final phase of a massive course improvement project that has dramatically changed the par-4 16th hole and includes the transition to MiniVerde bermuda grass greens is scheduled to be finished in time for an Aug. 29 reopening for members.
The changes will have a significant impact on future Wells Fargo Championships and the 2017 PGA Championship.
Sources anticipate a five-year contract extension for the Wells Fargo Championship to be signed later this year. It would keep the PGA Tour event at Quail Hollow Club through 2019, with the event moving to Eagle Pointe in Wilmington in 2017 when the PGA Championship is played in Charlotte.
Originally, the Quail Hollow changes which included another redesign of the short par-4 eighth hole were to be implemented over several years, but they were completed over the past two summers, expediting the process which should eliminate the issue of poor putting surfaces that tarnished the Wells Fargo Championship last May.
Our whole concept is to have a course thats challenging for the best players in the world and one that would still be fun for the members. We think weve done that, club president Johnny Harris said.
Course architect Tom Fazio has overseen the project, which includes softening the contours on several putting surfaces to accommodate the faster green speeds created by the new ultradwarf grass that has drawn rave reviews at East Lake Golf Club, site of the Tour Championship in Atlanta.
The most dramatic change is the creation of a new 16th hole, which begins the so-called Green Mile finish.
From the tournament tees, the hole is now a 505-yard par-4 that plays to the left of where the original fairway was located. The tee shot will play slightly downhill with a large oak tree and a fairway bunker guarding the right side.
From the fairway, tour players will be left with approximately 175 yards into a green that is perched on the edge of the lake that also guards the 14th and 17th holes. The putting surface is canted gently from back to front to accept longer shots.
The new 16th green sits approximately 80 yards left of where the original 16th green was located and is approximately 25 feet lower.
Also, the tee for the par-3 17th hole was moved to the right of where it has been for the past two Wells Fargo Championships. The hole can play up to 217 yards.
The new layout will allow for more spectator access and a viewing area that will allow fans to watch action on four holes Nos. 14-17 from one spot.
The par-4 eighth hole has remained controversial despite various changes. The latest version makes it approximately 300 yards from the tournament tees and it will play basically straight with bunkers guarding the green. There is an open area in the front of the green to encourage players to try to drive the green, which has been softened significantly in the latest renovation.The green on the par-3 13th hole was moved nearly 30 yards to the left to provide better air circulation.
Various other tweaks were made around the golf course, including taking out a large oak tree near the front right of the ninth green to allow for better growing conditions for the new heat-tolerant putting surfaces.
The new putting surfaces were planted approximately seven weeks ago and have grown in well despite cooler-than-normal temperatures. The fairways were also fully reconditioned, undergoing an aggressive program made possible by the course being closed for more than three months.
Were committed to this in a way thats pretty spectacular, Harris said.
• Tobacco Road Golf Club in Sanford recently received an impressive honor when it was ranked No. 50 in the world for course design by Golf Course Architecture magazine. The poll was based on voting by more than 2,000 course designers around the world and is a testament to the imagination of designer Mike Strantz. It ranked above such famous designs as Harbour Town, Pasatiempo, Royal Lytham & St. Annes, Maidstone and Hoylake. The Old Course at St. Andrews ranked No. 1.
• The Wyndham Championship in Greensboro is two weeks away and stacking up another strong field led by defending champion Sergio Garcia, Webb Simpson, Brandt Snedeker, Davis Love III, Martin Kaymer, Carl Pettersson, Zach Johnson and others.
Hunter Mahan will have even more fans when he returns next week at the PGA Championship after withdrawing from the RBC Canadian Open with the lead to be home for the birth of his first child. Mahan didnt hesitate to WD and hes bypassing the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational this week to be home and to be a father.

STEPHAN EL SHAARAWY returned to action after four months in the Primavera's win over Hellas Verona 2-1 on Saturday. El Shaa came on in the 61′ minute and earned a penalty in the 88′ minute; the Italian was supposed to take the kick but was denied of it as he was assisted by the medical staff. Andrej Modic and Andrea Petagna (pk) scored.

El Shaarawy returns from injury: "I'm happy to be back playing"
STEPHAN EL SHAARAWY played 35 minutes with the Primavera in the 2-1 win over Hellas Verona on Saturday.
El Shaarawy hadn't taken the field since December 11 when, until today as he played for Filippo Inzaghi's Primavera team and gave them a hand in the 2-1 victory against 7th placed Hellas and are now three points behind Atalanta in 2nd.
Stephan started the game on the bench and he came on in the 61′ minute, replacing Alex Pedone. El Shaarawy was fouled in the box in the 88′ minute but Marco Pinato failed to convert the penalty. El Shaarawy was thrilled to finally return. (continue reading…)

The Road Forward at Milanello
THE GUT-WRENCHING loss and subsequent dumping out of the Champions League has added to the miserable outcome of what has become a forgettable season for Milan.
The woes really began back when stud center-back Thiago Silva and sensational striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic were sold, to cash in on the investments. It is no secret that the money made on these deals were used to balance the books at Milan which beforehand had been tipping too far in the negative direction.
This, coupled with owner Silvio Berlusconi's refusal to inject a much needed care package of financial assistance to the management at Milan, has left the club really scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to transfers. (continue reading…)
Inzaghi: "We must not stop here", Galliani: "Immense joy"
MILAN HAVE won the Viareggio Cup and Galliani has said it was Anderlecht's turn to experience Inzaghi's revenge.
The Italian giants have invested a lot in the youth sector and the results are starting to show as after progressing to the next stage of the UEFA Youth CL, where they face Chelsea next week, Milan Primavera have won the Viareggio Cup.
il Diavolo scored twice in the extra time in the final after drawing 1-1 at the end of the 90 minutes against Anderlecht. Andrea Petagna, Michael Fabbro and Alessandro Mastalli scored to get back at the Belgians who beat Milan in the final last year. (continue reading…)
Highlights: Milan Primavera 3-1 Anderlecht
FOR THE second year in a row, Milan and Anderlecht met in the final of the Viareggio Cup and got the Rossoneri got their revenge after losing to the Belgian side in 2013. Aaron Leya of Anderlecht scored first in the 62′ minute but Andrea Petagna equalized in the 71′ minute with a wonderful goal. The 90 minutes ended in a draw so the match went to extra time with both sides in 10 men with Milan's Zan Benedicic sent off in the 75th minute and Samuel Bastien for Anderlecht in the 79th minute. Three minutes into extra time, Michael Fabbro gave Milan the lead with a tap-in. In the 99′ minute, Filippo Inzaghi's boys scored their third and won the match: Petagna gave Alessandro Mastalli a great ball and the midfielder volleyed it to the back of the net. Huge win for Milan Primavera – they've won the Viareggio Cup!
Video: Primavera goals, ahead of the Viareggio Tournament
FILIPPO INZAGHI'S men will take part in the 66th edition of the Viareggio Tournament. The Viareggio started on 3 February but Milan, who last year finished in second place, enter the competition in the Final 16 stage on Tuesday.
Video: Inzaghi talks UEFA Youth League
FILIPPO INZAGHI has told uefa.com about his experience as a coach of the Milan Primavera in the UEFA Youth League. Watch the interview below and also the highlights from Milan's 6-2 defeat to Barcelona's Primavera side.
Highlights: Ajax 2-3 Milan (Primavera)
THE BOYS of Filippo Inzaghi succeeded where the players of Massimiliano Allegri failed and took all three points from Amsterdam when they took on Ajax on Wednesday for the second matchday of the UEFA Youth Champions League. Milan now have 6 points from 2 games. There were plenty of chances for each side. Melvin Vissers scored the first (7′) for Ajax but Alessandro Mastalli (52′) and Luca Iotti (62′) overturned the score. Branco van den Boomen equalized (84′) but quickly afterwards Ivan Rondanini (86′) scored Milan's winner. Pippo's next matches are against Barcelona.
Inzaghi: "I have learned and improved, we'll follow Allegri's lead"
FILIPPO INZAGHI says his Primavera team will follow the lead of Max Allegri's side and praises Milan's attackers.
Milan started training ahead of the new season two weeks ago and yesterday the Primavera squad, joined by new coach Filippo Inzaghi, arrived at training center Milanello to start their preparation ahead of the 2013/2014 football year.
"Returning to Milanello is something unique and special and that is the message I wanted to get over to my players," Pippo, who last season had a successful debut season as a coach, leading the Allievi Nazionali team, told Milan's official site. (continue reading…)

UMB Financial buys Prairie Capital Management for $26.6M
Send this story to a friend
- James Dornbrook
- Staff Writer
UMB Financial Corp. plans to pay about $26.6 million for Prairie Capital Management LLC, a Kansas City-based asset management and wealth management consulting firm.
UMB (Nasdaq: UMBF), a financial services holding company that also is based in Kansas City, said Wednesday that it signed a definitive agreement to buy Prairie's assets, a deal it expects to close on July 30. Prairie has $4.5 billion in assets under management and administration, which includes advisory assets.
"We've known the principals for a number of years, and they are certainly regarded as a premier provider of investment management expertise and (offer) a unique set of products," said Clyde Wendel, UMB Bank's vice chairman. "We have continued to build our investment management practice within UMB, and you've seen past acquisitions in corporate trust and mutual funds. This is just a continuation of that effort to grow our company."
Prairie's client base includes high-net-worth private clients, family offices, trusts, corporations, plan sponsors, and foundations and endowments. Wendel said Prairie brings manager fund selection and private equity processes to the table that UMB did not have before. UMB brings banking and trust services that Prairie didn't previously have.
"It's very complementary in the way we look at it," Wendel said.
In addition to Kansas City, Prairie has offices in Denver, Chicago and Philadelphia. UMB already has a presence in Kansas City and Denver, but Chicago and Philadelphia are new markets.Prairie will retain its brand and operate as an independent division of UMB, with current leadership managing the business and keeping their roles. The company has about 35 employees.

Ninth circuit court rules that Ashcroft can be sued personally
Former Attorney General John D. Ashcroft can be sued personally for allegedly abusing the material witness law in the wake of 9/11 by locking up a Muslim-American who never was accused of a crime or called as a witness. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals likened the misuse of the material witness law to preventive detention. (Read the Washington Post story on the case.)
At first glance, the 9th Circuit's decision seemed to conflict with the U.S. Supreme Court's decision earlier this year that a Muslim Pakistani could not sue Ashcroft for the policy of locking up Muslim men from the Middle East in the days after 9/11. In that 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court ruled Javaid Iqbal had not presented enough facts to make a plausible case that Ashcroft was responsible for the policy.
In last Friday's 9th Circuit decision, two Republican appointees, Judges Milan D. Smith Jr. and David R. Thompson, concluded that Ashcroft was not entitled to immunity from suit because Abdullah al-Kidd had presented enough evidence to make a plausible case that Ashcroft had misused the material witness law and violated al-Kidd's rights.
The difference was that al-Kidd's lawsuit cited statements that Ashcroft and FBI Director Robert Mueller had made singling out the al-Kidd case as an example of how they had used the material witness law to hold people suspected of having connections to alleged terrorists. Iqbal had presented no such evidence.
Al-Kidd was born Lavoni T. Kidd in Wichita, Ks. before attending college at the University of Idaho, where he was a top running back on the football team. The African-American converted to Islam, married and had two children. He was arrested March 16, 2003 when he was about to fly out of Dulles Airport on a trip to study in Saudi Arabia. Over the next 16 days, al-Kidd was repeatedly strip-searched and held in isolation cells with the lights on day and night.
The FBI affidavit that led to al-Kidd's detention as a material witness contained a number of false claims. It said he was about to take a one-way trip to Saudi Arabia for a cost of $5,000. Actually, he had a round-trip ticket costing $1,700. The FBI maintained that al-Kidd had information relevant to the prosecution of Sami Omar Al-Hussayen, an Idaho man who was accused of terrorism and immigration violations related to running a Muslim group's website. Al-Hussayen was acquitted of the terrorism charges in 2004 but later deported. Al-Kidd was not called as a witness.
The 9th Circuit panel decided that al-Kidd's case was different from Iqbal's because al-Kidd was able to cite statements from Ashcroft and Mueller. In October, 2001, Ashcroft said at a press conference:
"Today, I am announcing several steps that we are taking to enhance our ability to protect the United States from the threat of terrorist aliens. These measures form one part of the department's strategy to prevent terrorist attacks by taking suspected terrorists off the street . . . Aggressive detention of lawbreakers and material witnesses is vital to preventing, disrupting or delaying new attacks."
Later, in congressional testimony, Mueller cited the al-Kidd arrest as one of five successes in the war on terrorism.
An internal Justice Department investigation cited by al-Kidd included public statements of Justice Department and White House officials stating that material witness warrants were being used to hold suspects in a kind of preventive detention.
One significance of the 9th Circuit decision is its disapproval of preventive detention at a time when the Obama administration is considering its use in holding terrorism suspects under some circumstances. The judges concluded their opinion with a strong statement on preventive detention:
"We are confident that, in light of the experience of the American colonists with the abuses of the British Crown, the Framers of our Constitution would have disapproved of the arrest, detention, and harsh confinement of a United States citizen as a 'material witness' under the circumstances, and for the immediate purpose alleged, in al-Kidd's complaint. Sadly, however, even now, more than 217 years after the ratification of the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution, some confidently assert that the government has the power to arrest and detain or restrict American citizens for months on end, in sometimes primitive conditions, not because there is evidence that they have committed a crime, but merely because the government wishes to investigate them for possible wrongdoing, or to prevent them from having contact with others in the outside world. We find this to be repugnant to the Constitution, and a painful reminder of some of the most ignominious chapters of our national history."

J. Cole - Work Out
Artist: J. Cole
Producer: J. Cole and Elite
Album: Cole World: Sideline Story
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 80 total votes )
Kanye's The New Workout Plan was a dope song to be sure, but you know what would be really dope? If someone came along and flipped it so that, instead of being about exercise, it was about casual sex. What's that? That's what it was about to begin with? Oh… actually, that explains a lot. Jokes aside, the long-awaited lead single off J. Cole's debut single finds the Roc Nation standard-bearer making the risque subtext of Yeezy's single (more) overt, asking a one-night stand toWork Out for his viewing pleasure. Cole collides with frequent production partner Elite behind the boards, crafting a minimal beat prominently sampling the Roger Troutman-inspired vocoder outro to Ye's jam (clearing which reportedly caused the delay of the single's release). Simba keeps it casual on the mic, exercising his female appeal in flirtatious bars and quoting Paula Abdul's Straight Up on the hook. So, readers, was this single worth the wait? Debatezaway—and keep it locked for all the latest on J. Cole's
yet-untitled Cole World: Sideline Story, yet-unscheduled

A Marietta apartment building was evacuated after the ground underneath it washed out on Saturday afternoon. It happened the Ivey Ridge Apartments on Bently Drive. Cobb County authorities say no injuries were reported. They say building number 13 on the property was evacuated, and the Red Cross was called in to assist residents. Authorities say residents cannot return to the building because it is structurally unsafe.The washout was caused by heavy rains in the area. One resident told FOX 5 when the ground began to erode underneath the building, it sounded and felt like an earthquake.
Firefighters are calling a man a hero after he helped save a family from a burning home in DeKalb County.

Weekly Academic Success Tip - Time Management and BalancePosted January 17th, 2012 by Kimberly K. Ballard
Time is a commodity that most law students lament during law school; however, balance can be achieved in law school. A 15- or 16-credit law class load can be easily balanced using a one-third, one-third, one-third formula. The 168 hours of the week can be divided neatly into sleep, law, and the rest of life. How does that work? Do the math:
- 56 hours of sleep (8 hours each night for 7 nights)
- 56 hours of law (15 in class, nearly 3 times that [41 hours] outside of class)
- 56 hours of the rest of life (eating, socializing, exercising, shopping, and attending to the score of weekly chores we all have to take care of)
If you need more than 41 hours outside of class, borrow a few of the "rest of life" hours. The real question then becomes one of scheduling, and of efficient use of each of the 56 hours of law. Lawyers work on rigid schedules, imposed by client appointments, court hearings, trials, filing deadlines, and other necessities over which they seldom have control. In law school, except for about 15 hours of your 168 hours per week, you have nearly total control over your time, and thus there are no excuses for not having enough time to thoroughly prepare for class, review notes after class, meet with professors, outline, etc. If you find yourself making excuses, you need to take control of your time and your life by creating a weekly study schedule.
When creating a schedule, keep the following tips in mind:
- Most students find that they get more out of their reading if they read for a class two days ahead. For example, read on Saturday for all Monday classes; on Sunday for Tuesday; on Monday for Wednesday; etc. This schedule allows you to read more carefully and to reflect on the material while reading; allows you time to review before class; and allows you to have Thursdays and Fridays for outlining, practice questions, time for papers or projects, review of your outlines, etc.
- Put your commitments in first: class attendance; work hours; study group times; sleep; meals; exercise; student organization meetings; non-law reward time, etc. Then, fill in your reading/briefing, review before class, review of class notes within 24 hours, outlining, practice questions, project time, review time. If you overdid it on reward time, you will have to designate additional study time.
- For most law students, 40-45 hours per week outside of class throughout the entire semester will mean reviewing near exam time instead of learning it for the first time.
- It will take 2-3 weeks to get a weekly schedule that feels comfortable and works consistently. As you evaluate what worked and did not work each week, alter the schedule to make better use of your "alert" time and your ability to concentrate in blocks. Include short breaks within longer blocks of studying so that you are able to focus and concentrate.
- The rewards for good time management are that your stress goes down, you are better prepared for studying for the bar, and you are better equipped as a new lawyer to manage a client load and work tasks.

This week hasn't been my favorite. The copying machine and Baltimore City tow trucks were not on my side. I mean I guess it could be a good week if you like throwing money into the air haphazardly.
So I'm in major need of some photographic inspiration. Aren't you?
That's what I thought. So let's take a quiet moment together to stare at these shots of perfection…

Questions & Answers
Flensted Mobiles Scandinavian Swan Mobile
Elegant and unique
rater from Arlington, Va
The mobile is small, simple and delicate. It doesn't have a very impressive hanger (they use a piece similar to the cheap little plastic piece that holds bread bags closed), which is why I dinged it a star, but otherwise it's fun to look at. Our 2 month old loves the shadows it makes in our bedroom. It may be a bit over-priced for what it is (just paper geese), but you won't find another like it.
