Good morning Panther faithful. It appears that the Carolina Panthers went trick or treating before dusk on Sunday and the result was a big resounding trick. On a personal note it appears that measuring my enthusiasm for this team while hoping for the best and expecting the worst sadly paid off. I don't think I'm experiencing quite the same heart ache as some are this morning. I think it's safe so assume that the hopes of the Panthers running the table were brought back down to turf on Sunday (apologies for the pun).
Sunday's game was just terrible on so many levels; inane quarterback play, pathetic run offense, dropped passes and horrible play calling was the milieu of the day. No one element caused the Panthers to lose, but if you don't see that things need to change you're sticking your head in the ground. Nevertheless, John Fox has used his 'best chance to win' argument re: Moore, so even if he wanted to switching back to Clausen isn't really going to do anything for this team. Flip flopping the QB position will only stunt the development of the wide receivers, and you're kidding yourself if you think Fox wouldn't be just as likely to go back to Moore again on a whim if Clausen falters (and he will because he's a rookie).
The defense did everything they could after being on the field for a laughable 36:28 caused by an ineffective offense. There were a few good performances on the defensive side of the ball, and I can think of two good performances on the offensive end. So, let's break it down...
After the jump
One quick note on Matt Moore because it needs to be talked about. If you disagree with the following statement, then feel free to argue it in the comments:
"Matt Moore is neither as bad as he was yesterday, nor is he as good as he was a week ago against San Francisco."
As it stands Moore has six starts with a QB rating over 90 and four starts with a QB rating under 75... he's simply not consistent. He falls somewhere in between the 94.6 he put up last week, and the 51 he had yesterday and if you're okay with a QB like that long term then you have far lower standards than I do. Simply put, when the game plan is working and Davidson's offense is clicking then Moore is the perfect QB, if he faces the slightest bit of adversity he crumbles.
On the other end of the spectrum we have a normall stalwart and reliable veteran who is drastically under-performing. Steve Smith has been poor all season and he himself described his play as that of a 'high-schooler' yesterday. It was just a terrible game from Smitty; easy drops, an ugly fumble... I think Darin Gantt said it best during his mid game Tweet:
If Steve Smith's going to mutter about not getting the ball, he's going to have to hang onto it first.
This pretty much sums up Smitty's season... a lot of talk, not a lot of action.
Now onto the individual rankings.
James Anderson- Extremely Optimistic: 8 tackles, 3 for a loss, 1 sack and 2 QB hits. Anderson really deserves to be a pro-bowler this year, sadly I think his 1-6 team is going to be the reason he missed out on the honor.
Jason Baker- Extremely Optimistic: I overlook Baker too much, but he's really had a stellar year. Sometimes I need a really bad performance to make me realize the guys who are stepping up.
Brandon LaFell- Extremely Optimistic: That's two games in a row where he's put together good performances. He turned a terrible Matt Moore pass that was behind him into a touchdown and he fought the whole game both in his pass catching and blocking... great game.
Tony Fiametta- Somewhat Optimistic: He was a good lead blocker today... pity the guy behind him couldn't do anything. I hope Fi continues to play at this level.
Charles Godfrey- Somewhat Optimistic: Godfrey has had a quietly good season, and though he only registered two tackles they were both big tackles.
Play-calling- Extremely Pessimistic: There is nothing to say about this abomination other than it looks like an 8 year old calling plays in Madden NFL.
Steve Smith- Extremely Pessimistic: See above
Matt Moore- Extremely Pessimistic: Terrible game from Moore. The comical 1st INT off a back footed throw on a failed flea flicker should have been the omen it wasn't going to be pretty.
Jonathan Stewart- Extremely Pessimistic: Sure, the holes aren't always there... but sooner or later an RB needs to make something happen. Stewart didn't make anything happen.
Honestly there are more... I can always find more of them; but let's leave it here.
Overall Outlook
What are we playing for? Still think we can make the playoffs? Good luck with that wish, meanwhile I guess I'll watch us close this thing out and continue to prognosticate about coaches and draft picks. That's about all there is left.
30% Optimistic heading home to face the Saints.

JEFFERSONVILLE, IN (WAVE) – The Clark County Prosecutor's Office is seeking the death penalty against a convicted sex offender accused of raping and murdering his teenage neighbor.
Richard Hooten is accused of raping and strangling Tara Willenborg, at her Cambridge Square apartment in Clarksville this past March.
Hooten did not appear in court Monday for a pretrial conference set before Judge Vicki Carmichael. Instead, Clark County Prosecuting Attorney Jeremy Mull met with defense attorneys for Hooten. The brief meeting ended with Mull recommending the death penalty in the case.
"We're going to take the next few days and the parties are going to submit the paperwork to the court as far as when some deadlines ought to be in the case," said Mull. "We're going to try to keep the case moving as efficiently and quickly as possible."
In April, Hooten confessed to WAVE 3 News he raped Willenborg along with at least four other women. He maintained, however, that Willenborg was the only victim he ever murdered.
Despite the recorded confession, Mull said Hooten's case won't be a cake walk.
"Any death penalty case is a challenge. There are a lot of requirements that the state is required to go through to do one of those properly," said Mull. "We will just move forward carefully and follow the law on all points and hopefully at the end of it that the jury comes back with a decision for death in the case."
Mull expects a decision in the timeframe of Hooten's case to be made within the next 30 days.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
- 6.5 oz (200 gr) butter
- 2 cups (400 gr) granulated sugar
- peel of one lemon
- 2 cups (500 ml) water
- 5 eggs
- 4 cups (500 gr) unbleached white flour
- 16 oz (500 ml) olive oil for frying
- powdered sugar for dusting
- candied fruit, such as cherries for decoration (optional)
This Spanish dessert recipe makes several dozen suspiros.
Place butter, sugar, lemon peel and water in large pot. Heat on medium-high and stir constantly with a wooden spoon until sugar dissolves. As soon as the water boils, remove and discard the lemon peel.
While continuing to stir, add the flour little by little. Reduce heat and cook until the batter easily comes away from the pan.
Remove from heat and allow the batter to cool for 15 minutes. While batter is cooling, beat the eggs and gradually stir the beaten eggs into the cooled batter. Continue to stir until the batter is thoroughly mixed. Batter will be thick and sticky.
Pour 1 inch of olive oil into a large frying pan and heat on medium. When oil is hot, drop dollops of batter into hot oil using a large spoon. Fry on both sides until golden. Be careful to control the heat, so that suspiros do not burn. Remove and allow to drain on a paper towel.
Sprinkle the suspiros with powdered sugar and optionally decorate with candied fruit.
Tip: If the spoonfuls are too big, the suspiros will be very thick. If that happens, the middle will not cook, while the outside will be golden brown and crispy.

Stein reports from Vegas summer league:
Not totally sure yet how to interpret this one, but sources say that Bulls chairman Jerry Reinsdorf is personally handling contract negotiations with Deng and his new agent (Jason Levien) after Reinsdorf informed Bulls GM John Paxson that he wanted to directly negotiate with the Deng camp along with Bulls director of player personnel Gar Forman.
Bulls tidbits are otherwise scarce so far beyond what we covered recently about Deng's fellow restricted free agent Ben Gordon and Kirk Hinrich. While it is widely presumed that Chicago will soon trade Hinrich after drafting Derrick Rose with the No. 1 overall pick, sources maintain that there is some sentiment in the Bulls organization to keep Hinrich -- a Reinsdorf favorite -- and play him at shooting guard alongside Rose while banking on getting something good for Gordon in a sign-and-trade.
Don't know how I should feel about this -- my initial reaction is that I would expect the Bulls front office to behave in a more coordinated fashion, particularly after what happened with D'Antoni earlier this summer -- but wanted to get it posted to get everyone's thoughts.
The other tidbit to note in this report is that it sounds like the Clips are interested in a number of "restricteds," including Luol.

Whole Foods Market confirmed today in a press release that it is planning on opening a new store in Maple Grove.
The 34,000 square-foot store will be located at 12201 Elm Creek Boulevard in Maple Grove, the site.
The business anticipating a mid-2013 opening in Maple Grove, according to Whole Foods Public Relations Manager Kate Klotz.
"The Twin Cities continues to be an area of growth for us," said Michael Bashaw, Midwest regional president in a press release. "We're extremely excited to expand our offering of natural and organic products to an even greater customer base and to do so in a bustling area such as Maple Grove."
The lease on the Maple Grove location was finalized last week, according to Marketing Director Jennie Zafft who said Whole Foods will be a "really good fit" for the area.
Whole Foods Market stated a fifth Minnesota location is also being built in downtown Minneapolis at Hennepin and Washington.
The store will feature natural and organic foods and focus on fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, specialty items, high-quality meats and poultry, everyday pantry staples and sustainable seafood, according to the business. The store will also contain a separate liquor store with a variety of wines and specialty beers.
"This new store will not only reflect the qualities and attributes of our existing stores, it will help us continue our commitment to our local communities," said Bashaw. "From an increased store size, to a varying product mix and our unparalleled community support initiatives, we can't wait to share the Whole Foods Market experience with even more Minnesotans."
Whole Foods Market estimates it will add approximately 125 additional jobs in the Twin Cities, according to the press release. The company also discussed a "commitment" to each of the communities it serves – such as quarterly Community Support Days when a percentage of sales for one day are donated to a local nonprofit as well as regular donations to local food banks.
"These stores will allow us to deepen our connections within the community," Bashaw said. "We look forward to building strong relationships with our neighborhood partners in our new communities."

The bill is one of the most essential items of the special session that expires Wednesday. A House vote was expected later Tuesday to send the bill to Gov. Rick Perry.
Democrats had resisted the school cuts with the state leaving an estimated $10 billion in reserve funds untouched.
The measure changes distribution formulas for public schools to let the state give school districts less money than current law. It spreads the $4 billion cut over two years — 6 percent across-the-board cuts in 2012 and $2 billion in targeted cuts in 2013.

Perusing Vikings news and found an interesting tidbit on espn's NFC North Blog Page.
Kevin Seifert reporting on all things North while at the combine in Indianapolis suggests there may not be much change at quarterback in the Vikings roster come the 2009 season. Seifert says "...it seems clear the Vikings have no interest in pursuing a blockbuster deal to find a new starter. That would seem to rule out a run at New England's Matt Cassel, and as of Friday the team had displayed no indications it would pursue pending free agent Jeff Garcia."
Childress was asked "if he could envision a scenario in which the Vikings would pursue a player to be their new and unquestioned starter. Childress paused several seconds and said: "There might be." Then, he added: "But right now I would be honest with you and tell you I wouldn't know who that person would be.""
Really? See above paragraph!
Seifert continues: "So let's quickly review. Without mentioning Cassel, Garcia or Cleveland's Derek Anderson by name, the Vikings' top two decision-makers are on record saying they don't believe there is a difference-making quarterback available to them. And their first option is to make no changes to their 2008 depth chart."
The piece has more on the Vikings perspective, check it out:

I'm not a Tour nut or anything, but am geniunely curious as to what, if anything, you Gaslampers have to say about one of your own locals possibly winning the tour this year.
I've read a few interviews with Floyd and he's a pretty funny dude (former Menonite and current broken hip rider).

A late-session change to Senate Bill 336 seemed familiar to
Sen. Ron Stollings, D-Boone.
Stollings, a physician, has spent years working on
legislation to regulate head injuries for student athletes.
During the 2012 session, a bill doing that seemed destined
for passage, but a last-minute debate over liability for volunteers caused the
bill to die in its final hour.
Lawmakers continued to study the issue to craft another take
on the bill only to see it gutted again on the final day of the current
Within the past year, the West Virginia Secondary Schools
Activities Commission adopted many of the recommendations for concussion
education and return-to-play protocol, but Stollings said the Legislature
should put all those things into code.
And that was the reason he gave for supporting Senate Bill
336, even without a key provision.
"All we were trying to do is get clarification that we're
covered by (the Board of Risk Insurance Management)," Stollings told lawmakers
before they voted on the bill. "I have a letter from BRIM that says as far as
he knows we're covered; I just wonder if Chuck Jones is no longer the head of
BRIM if we'd still be covered."
Stollings said he knew the clarification about limiting
liability for health care professionals who volunteer their time during
athletic events was pulled from the bill by the House of Delegates, but he said
he wanted the concussion protocols to pass more than he wanted to fight over
the liability provisions.
"Frankly, folks, this is important," Stollings said. "We
care about concussions; we'll worry about the liability at another time."

Sure, nature tries to compensate for her brutality with fun marvels like the Grand Canyon and flatulence. But move a few links down the food chain and nature is callously vicious.
Take the teensy-cosm of my backyard, for example. All summer, it's been home to an apparently orphaned lizard that was not taught proper lizard behavior. Or maybe it has hyperactivity or bipolar disorder. Whatever the cause, it just doesn't act like a normal lizard. A normal lizard knows to hunker under a bush and hold still when something such as a human carrying a glass of iced tea passes by.
The preoccupied human will never realize it almost stepped on a lizard.
But my untaught lizard does just the opposite. Whenever I stroll by, it totally freaks out, dashing across my path or clattering into the rain gutter. Of course, I squeal, drop my iced tea and experience pre-incontinence. Dumb lizard!
I attempted to be a surrogate mom and teach the lizard survival skills. I quietly opened the sliding glass door and called out, "Yoo-hoo. I'm coming out, lizard. Just cool your jets."
Then, glass of iced tea in hand, I gently tiptoed outside. But I made the mistake of sliding the glass door closed.
Whoosh! A streak of greenish gray whizzed by me at the speed of light, clattering like a tap dancer on fast forward.
Naturally, I yelped and dropped my iced tea.
A couple days later, I needed to water the potted flowers in the patio. I noiselessly slid the glass open a foot and squeezed out, projecting loving vibes that Greenpeace would envy.
I reached for the hose with one hand and set my iced tea on the patio table with the other.
The darn lizard must have been lurking by the garden hose. As usual, it went crazy and leaped onto the wall next to me, racing back and forth dementedly. Totally startled, I crashed against the patio table, knocking over my iced tea, of course.
Still, despite the hair-raising encounters, I liked the annoying critter.
So I didn't appreciate when cruel nature stepped in, disguised as the sweet-faced neighborhood kitty that makes a daily pass through my backyard.
I was reading and enjoying an iced tea inside when the kitty appeared as usual, peeked through the sliding glass, and then headed for the back wall. A minute later, though, the cat reappeared, loping by with a pudgy limp lizard hanging from its mouth.
I jumped up from the table, knocking over my iced tea, and ran for the door, but by the time I got the lock open, the bloodthirsty cat was gone.
My poor lizard! I felt violated that the cat would dare to come into MY yard and make a snack of MY lizard!
I told myself, "that's nature" and all that, but still, I miss my neurotic lizard.
However, I am spilling a lot less iced tea now.

Here's a reference you can use for a quick summary of the major laws of chemistry. I've listed the laws in alphabetical order.
Avogadro's Law
Equal volumes of gases under identical temperature and pressure conditions will contain equal numbers of particles (atoms, ion, molecules, electrons, etc.).
Boyle's Law
At constant temperature, the volume of a confined gas is inversely proportional to the pressure to which it is subjected.
PV = k
Charles' Law
At constant pressure, the volume of a confined gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.
V = kT
Combining Volumes
Refer to Gay-Lussac's Law
Conservation of Energy
Energy can be neither created nor destroyed; the energy of the universe is constant. This is the First Law of Thermodynamics.
Conservation of Mass
Also known as Conservation of Matter. Matter can be neither created nor destroyed, though it can be rearranged. Mass remains constant in an ordinary chemical change.
Dalton's Law
The pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the component gases.
Definite Composition
A compound is composed of two or more elements chemically combined in a defined ratio by weight.
Dulong & Petit's Law
Most metals require 6.2 cal of heat in order to raise the temperature of 1 gram-atomic mass of the metal by 1°C.
Faraday's Law
The weight of any element liberated during electrolysis is proportional to the quantity of electricity passing through the cell and also to the equivalent weight of the element.
First Law of Thermodynamics
Conservation of Energy. The total energy of the universe is constant and is neither created nor destroyed.
Gay-Lussac's Law
The ratio between the combining volumes of gases and the product (if gaseous) can be expressed in small whole numbers.
Graham's Law
The rate of diffusion or effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular mass.
Henry's Law
The solubility of a gas (unless it is highly soluble) is directly proportional to the pressure applied to the gas.
Ideal Gas Law
The state of an ideal gas is determined by its pressure, volume, and temperature according to the equation:
PV = nRT
P is the absolute pressure
V is the volume of the vessel
n is the number of moles of gas
R is the ideal gas constant
T is the absolute temperature
Multiple Proportions
When elements combine, they do so in the ratio of small whole numbers. The mass of one element combines with a fixed mass of another element according to this ratio.
Periodic Law
The chemical properties of the elements vary periodically according to their atomic numbers.
Second Law of Thermodynamics
Entropy increases over time. Another way of stating this law is to say that heat cannot flow, on its own, from an area of cold to an area of hot.

Ceres is a Roman goddess of agriculture. The Universal Mother, she symbolizes unconditional love and is considered the most generous of all the goddesses. The offering of food to others is central to the Ceres archetype. Ceres also represents the cycles of birth, death and renewal – and the experience of grief and loss that accompany them. She provides spiritual sustenance and faith that life will be reborn.
Ceres is associated with collaboration – allowing mutual efforts to flourish and discovering creative responses through combining our efforts with others. She embodies the concrete awareness of ourselves as having an effect on the environment where we live. Interdependence, self-esteem, caring, sharing, and adapting to changing circumstances are all part of Ceres' archetypal gifts.

Bosnia and Herzegovina sit atop Group G, with 13 points from 5 matches played. Along with long-standing powerhouses of international football -- Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain -- Bosnia are undefeated in their group, their only draw coming against Greece. Even with that scoreless draw, the side has scored an impressive 18 goals.
In contrast, Bosnia's opponents on Friday evening, Latvia, sit second from bottom, having won just once (against bottom-dwelling Liechtenstein) and drawn just once (also against Liechtenstein). With five left to play, Latvia aren't out of the race just yet, but they're likely not holding out any hopes of chilling on the beach in Rio.
The last time the two met, back in September, Bosnia came away with a 4-1 win. Latvia actually opened the scoring with a goal from Kaspars Gorkss, but BiH stalwart Zvjezdan Misimović bagged a brace around a goal from Miralem Pjanic, while Edin Dzeko added the fourth in the dying minutes of the match. The last round of qualifiers was when Latvia came back to hold Liechtenstein to a draw, while Bosnia beat Greece 3-1, the Greek goal a consolation at the very end of the game.
While it's too early to give Bosnia a free pass to Brazil, a win in Riga just might prompt the Dragons to start packing for their first-ever World Cup -- especially if Greece can't grab all three against Lithuania. There are no new injuries to the squad called up for the qualifier, and supporters will be thrilled to know that Pjanic is perfectly healthy. It's his work in midfield that creates opportunities for his side and, despite Bosnia's abilities to win without him, they're a much stronger force with his inclusion.
As for Latvia, coach Aleksandrs Starkovs has said they'll be relying on young striker Valērijs Šabala, who scored twice in the friendly against Turkey, which ultimately ended in a 3-3 draw. The 18-year-old has yet to play a qualifier, however, so expecting great things against the group's top side may prove too much weight for his young shoulders.
Match Date / Time: Friday, June 7 at 6:30 p.m. local / 12:30 p.m. ET
Venue: Skonto Stadions, Riga, Latvia
TV: ESPN 3, ESPN Deportes

The community is coming together to help veterans see the war memorials built in their honor.
Volunteers and members of the Maumee High School Interact Club are working to put on a fundraiser dinner to benefit Honor Flight of Northwest Ohio, which flies local war veterans to Washington D.C. to see their respective war memorials.
"You don't even realize how important it is to them. Until they return. When they come in that evening, and most of the men, a lot of the men are in tears. And they are just so humbled," said Jan Archambeau, who organized the event.
Archambeau recently accompanied her uncle, a Korean War Veteran, to D.C. on an honor flight. She says that experience drove her to help more vets have the same experience. The Maumee Interact Club also volunteered to help make the event a reality.
Each honor flight trip costs about $72,000, but costs vets nothing.
"People need to help and raise funds or donate so that all the veterans who fought for us, and saved our lives can go," said Interact Club member Ashlee Balcerzak.
The fundraiser dinner will be held Saturday, November 16 from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Whitehouse American Legion, 6910 Providence Street Whitehouse, OH 43571. Tickets are $8 for adults and $4 for children at the door. A spaghetti dinner will be served.

PD confirms. Done Deal.
I guess it was from seeing him in Houston but I thought he was better. His K/rate the past few years is terrible and his defense is beyond terrible. I know a RH bat with some pop was/is a need but this doesnt seem to be an effective use of funds.
700 OPS playing in three of the best hitting ballparks in baseball the last three years? Give me MOAR Matt Carpenter even against LHP.

London Chamber of Commerce and Industry backs Thames crossings
5:05pm Wednesday 6th February 2013 in Bexley
A CHAMBER of commerce has waded into the row over river crossings at Greenwich and Thamesmead.
The London Chamber of Commerce and Industry has said in a response to Transport for London's consultation that it wants a new road bridge to be built at Gallions Reach along with the planned new tunnel at Greenwich peninsula.
It claims that plans for a new vehicle ferry at Gallions Reach is unlikely to accommodate future demand and a road crossing is necessary.
Chamber chief executive Colin Stanbridge said: "Failure to invest in major transport infrastructure now risks damaging London's reputation as an attractive business location in decades to come.
"The chronic shortage of crossings east of Tower Bridge holds back the potential of an area designated for economic growth by the mayor.
"We need to plan for the future not for the present."
Greenwich Council supports both road projects but a campaign against the peninsula crossing has attracted hundreds of supporters. Bexley Council is strongly opposed to a bridge.

"Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us." – Oscar Wilde
Sparked by HumbleFan's recent tongue-in-cheek post and abetted by Springsteen's Tunnel of Love album popping up on my iPod shuffle this morning, let's talk about me & you remembering about that time we use to remember. Remember?
Having turned 30 this past November I've resolved the fact that I am heading out of the non-prospect phase of my life into that phase where I'm now just sad career minor leaguer, holding on with the faint glimmer of hope that someday, someway, I will get my deserved call to the big leagues. As such, I've started wondering where the hell my youth went. I've noticed my memories are not what they used to be. I used to be great with putting names to faces and numbers – hell, I remembered my high school locker combination five years after I graduated. Nowadays I couldn't even tell you the name of my prom date. Or what I had for lunch yesterday.
The strange thing is, though, I've recently started having the weirdest flashbacks sparked by the most ordinary of circumstances. The smell of wet pavement reminding me of a four-square game in front of my house; The back of a 1988 Topps baseball card sparking a memory of the time I threw up on a Saturday morning while looking for my Fred McGriff rookie; a car backfiring outside my office sounding like that time neighbor's Camaro had a flat tire – it's amazing how such mundane things can invoke a wealth of vivid memories to completely trivial times of my life. Maybe it's nothing more than a subconscious attempt to reconcile the fact that I am getting older. My biggest fear is that this is the dying flash of something bigger as my brain attempts to flush out the old to make space for the new.
What are some of your favorite memories? What are some of the more mundane memories that you're surprised you carry to this day? Any specific memory triggers? Do you ever ask yourself, well, how did I get here? Where is that large automobile?

Should Congress revoke president's 'Use of Force' power?
- 12:07 pm Wednesday, June 12th, 2013 by Opinion Staff
Three days after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, Congress overwhelmingly approved the Authorization for the Use of Military Force.
It authorized the president to use all "necessary and appropriate force" against the perpetrators of 9/11 and any person, organization or nation that aided or sheltered them.
The joint resolution led to the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan and, later, the invasion of Iraq. It has been cited as authority for holding prisoners without trial at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and for gathering intelligence on U.S. citizens and foreigners — including wiretaps without warrants.

Yorkton Council's decision to install its members only to the Yorkton Airport Authority has one of the Authority's first members disappointed.
Ron Evinou said when the YAA was created, it was done as a way to give the facility some direction and vision over the longer term by having people with an interest in the airport having a say.
"Back around 2006, we said go it alone, take ownership of the airport, put an authority in place, build a professional plan," he said.
And Council did that by establishing the YAA with members appointed by the Mayor and approved by Council.
"Together, we built professional plans and standards, became the best in the Province of applying for grants and we raised $2 million which we spent, half on runway lighting and half on runway surfaces at our community airport," offered Evinou.
"No significant money had previously been raised in decades. We had a very successful record of raising money."
Evinou said the YAA was successful in large part because of its make up. He explained the YAA is an incorporated body and creates a level of accountability for the City and airport management.
Directors are drawn for core competence, one tenant, one council member, and directors all appointed by the Mayor.
"The airport is regional and the board was charged with guiding operation of an airport for the community," said Evinou. "A good board guards against special interests. This board was strategic, built plans professionally for the future and portrayed a picture of the airport, which gave us friends in Regina and Saskatoon airport authorities. It gave us credibility when we met WestJet in Calgary, but their planes are too big."
"Over seven years a litany of powerful brains saw fit to volunteer, they never got a penny for their time. But they delivered visionary direction. Each served at least a year, many served three or more, we never had a problem with attendance."
But the volunteer voice has been quieted with the recent change to having only Council members sit on the YAA.
Mayor Bob Maloney said the move was made after a "couple of issues came to Council" involving the airport, one being a lack of interest from the Authority to continue to have the annual Kambusters Car Club drag races at the airport.
Maloney said Council also recognized the City was the major source of funds for the airport handled through the YAA.
"We've invested $600-$700,000 out there the last three years," he said.
As the funding agency, and with some concerns arising, Maloney said Council decided to take the reins.
"As a Council we felt we needed to have more control over what was going on," he said.
Evinou is not convinced the Council decision is a good one for the airport in terms of a vision for the facility looking toward the future. He said it is important for those with a vested interest in the airport as a facility and from the larger community to have a voice at the table.
"In my view, very vocal and persistent special interest groups are exactly why you have a board. Politicians listen to them and try to please them," said Evinou.
One example is having a dedicated YAA to lobby for things such as regularly scheduled passenger service.
"The stakes are high. If we in Yorkton can get 500 passengers a year to buy tickets and fly to and from Yorkton, we will qualify to ask the federal government for funding," said Evinou. "Then the city only has to find one third of the costs, instead of passing the costs onto the residents and they get a commercial airport."
Evinou said a progressive airport is essential for a growing community, and a YAA dedicated to the facility is a must.
"Progress has come to our region and the community needs an airport," he said. "Money arrives on airplanes and those who ignore that fact are steering the community wrong."
In that regard the Council decision is a step backward for Evinou.
"It's pretty easy to shut down criticism, tougher to make it right," he said. "… I am sure none of us felt the Mayor and City management could just "shut a corporate body down". That doesn't seem right. And it doesn't sit right with a lot of people in the community."

Reed Lipman Mitzvah Project - Peace Players International - Middle East
Reed Lipman fundraising for PeacePlayers International
PeacePlayers helps bring together thousands of children in Israel from Jewish and Arab communities through the game of basketball.
For my Mitzvah Project I resolved to do three things:
1. Research Peace Players and learn of its objectives and activities, particularly in the Middle East.
2. Raise awareness for Peace Players among my friends and family.
3. Ask invitees to my Bar Mitzvah to donate to Peace Players in lieu of gifts.
This past December my family and I were able to come and see a Peace Players bkb game in Jerusalem. The Jewish and Arab girls were playing together on a team which is the first ever integrated team entered in the Israeli National Basketball League. This visit really helped me to see the game I love in a different light and also see that my project would have a major impact. Please click on the url below to see what my visit was like:
The cost to support one child in the Peace Players program in Israel is about $850 per year. My goal is to raise at least $6800 to enroll eight (8) children (four Arab and four Jewish) for the year.

How to Bet FootballWhen it comes to sports betting, nothing has caught the fancy of the betting public quite like football betting. Football is made for television, which is an added attraction to many bettors, and the week in between games gives the casual bettor plenty of time to study games. The most common football bets are point spread wagers on sides (teams), as well as over/under betting and we'll look at both.
The most popular method of betting football involves the point spread, which is a handicap the sportsbooks impose on one team to make both teams equal in terms of betting. For a more detailed explanation of the point spread see Introduction to Point Spreads.
With the point spread, the team expected to win will be called the favorite, while the team expected to lose will be called the underdog. The team expected to win the game gives points to the team expected to lose for betting purposes.
If the Seahawks are playing the Cardinals, most bettors would wager on the Seahawks to win the game if all they had to do was pick the winner of the game. But if you make the Seahawks a 10-point favorite that changes everything. What this means is that Seattle has to win by 11 or more points for its bettors to win their bet, while those betting on the Cardinals would win their wagers if Arizona won the game or lost by nine points or less. If the Celtics win by exactly 10 points, the bet is a push and no money changes hands.
When betting against the point spread, bettors are asked to lay 11-to-10 odds, which means that they risk $11 to win $10. This is how the bookies and sportsbooks make their money. If you bet $11 on the Seahawks and I bet $11 on the Cardinals, the bookie collects $22 between us, but only returns $21 to the winner. The extra dollar is essentially the bookie's fee for accepting our wagers.
TotalsThe second most popular method of football betting involves wagering on totals, also known as over/unders. For a more detailed explanation of totals see Introduction to Totals.
A total is the predicted combined score of the two teams playing. A number will be posted and bettors have the option of wagering more than the predicted total points will be scored (over), or less than the predicted total points will be scored (under).
In our hypothetical game between the Seahawks and the Cardinals, the over/under number might be 40. Bettors wagering on the over would win their bets if the total combined score was 41 or greater, while bettors wagering on the under would win their bets if the combined total score was 39 or fewer points. Again, if the combined score is exactly 40 points, the bet is considered a push and no money changes hands.
Just as with the point spread, bettors are asked to lay 11-to-10 odds and risk $11 to win $10 on each over/under wager.
Money Line WagersWhile betting against the point spread or on totals make up the vast majority of football wagers, bettors also have several other betting options available to them. One is the money line wager, which is a bet on the winner of the game without the point spread. But because some teams are given a better than 50-percent chance of winning, money line wagers are made using odds, so that if you bet on the team expected to win you will be asked to risk more than you stand to win. More about money line betting can be found at Introduction to Money Lines.
The money line odds on a game will look something like:
Seattle Seahawks -400
Arizona Cardinals +300
This means is those who bet the Seahawks are asked to put up $40 to win $10, while those taking the Cardinals to pull off the upset are asked to risk $10 to win $30.
Parlays and TeasersOther popular football bets are parlays and teasers, which are sometimes referred to as exotic bets. In parlays and teasers. bettors must correctly predict two or more games. On parlays, bettors have the option of betting against the point spread or using the money line, while with teasers, players adjust the point spread in their favor.
The main drawback to betting parlays and teasers is all of your teams must win or the entire bet is a loss. If you pick four out of five games correctly, your wager is still a loss, as not all of your selections were winners.
Both parlays and teasers are explained more indepth at How to Bet Parlays and How to Bet Teasers.
Betting football isn't difficult and there are many bettors who only come out during football season and take time off when the season ends, only to come back out the following September.

Simon Cowell's 'date' Carmen Electra has the X factor
MUSIC mogul Simon Cowell has revealed he is dating former Playboy model Carmen Electra.
But in a classic case of having your cake and eating it, the multi-millionaire insists that 40-year-old Carmen is not his girlfriend.
He called in to an on-air radio show hosted by American Idol presenter Ryan Seacrest and said: "She's not my girlfriend. We're people who date. She's adorable, isn't she?"
Fans first witnessed the two flirting with each other when former Baywatch star Carmen stood in for Amanda Holden as a judge on Britain's Got Talent.
Then in September the pair were spotted having dinner together at a Los Angeles restaurant. An onlooker said at the time: "They were getting very cosy. They were holding hands and staring into each other's eyes – and then they started making out.
She's not my girlfriend. We're people who date. She's adorable, isn't she?
"They were with other friends at the restaurant but didn't seem to mind." Carmen, who has been married to basketball star Dennis Rodman and musician Dave Navarro, previously denied the relationship with Simon, 53.
But in an interview last month she said: "He's so cute. He is adorable. He's actually a sweetheart. I really liked him. I think he's really cool." The model and actress, who has appeared in Hollywood films including Scary Movie, Meet The Spartans and Cheaper By The Dozen 2, added: "Now, obviously, he's in Los Angeles with X Factor and we started to hang out and we became friends."
Until three months ago, Carmen was with rocker Robert Patterson. They got together soon after she split with Navarro in 2007 and got engaged the following year although there were no concrete plans for a wedding.
Simon had been engaged to make-up artist Mezhgan Hussainy, 39, whom he met on the set of American Idol in 2003, before ending it last year.
He is living in Los Angeles while filming X Factor USA.

Notice, this post is not entitled "Carlos Boozer Sucks" or "Why the Bulls Can't Win With Boozer Starting" or "Why Boozer is Awesome and You Are All Just Haters" or "Boozer: Finals MVP?". No, this post is simply meant to determine who Carlos Boozer is. Not who he was, not who we wanted him to bee, not what we need him to be, but what he is. Let's get down to basics.
Carlos Boozer played for Duke and won a national championship. He was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of the 2002 NBA draft. He played for the Cavs, the Jazz under fantastic coach Jerry Sloan, and now the Chicago Bulls. He plays power forward. He is 6'9 260lbs. He is very strong, but is "vertically challenged" when compared to many of his NBA peers.
Carlos Boozer currently ranks ninth among NBA power forwards in PER (assuming Cousins is a PF, hmm). Among PF's playing 25+ minutes per game, Boozer ranks third in TS%. He is twelfth in total rebound rate, and ninth in defensive rebound rate amongst that same group. He is also ninth in turnover rate amongst that same group, but only fourteenth in assist rate. He is assisted on a large percentage of his scores (similar to that of a Kevin Garnett or Ersan Ilyasova). These are the basics of his game. Take them for what you want. I'd love for him to be better on the offensive glass and get back to passing the ball well. Other than that, those numbers are pretty solid.
One of the biggest knocks on Boozer is that he doesn't show up against teams that are solid defensively (see last night's performance against the Spurs as an example). Well, let's dig into that. The top 10 defensive teams this year are the Sixers, Bulls, Mavs, Celtics, Knicks (WTF?), Hawks, Heat, Pacers, Blazers, and Grizzlies. Against those teams this year, Boozer is averaging 14.3 points on 52.4% shooting with 8.4 rebs in 29.8 minutes. On the year, Boozer averages 15.5 points on 53.1% shooting with 8.2 rebounds in the same number of minutes. So, against the best defenses, Boozer scores one less point per game and shoots a fraction of a percent worse from the field. I'd love to take at many other players stats against excellent defensive teams, but that does not seem like much of a drop to me.
Defensively, Carlos Boozer is better, but still very bad. In case you wanted to throw up in your mouth, here is how bad he was last year. He looks better this year, but still sucks.
Since I am writing this, I might as well give my own thoughts on who I think Boozer is. Boozer is a solid NBA power forward. Boozer is an efficient scorer and rebounder, although he is better when he has a PG to help him out. The biggest knocks on him seem to be that he feasts against poor teams and that he can't get his own buckets. The former I think is just ridiculous, and the latter is probably true. However, the average NBA starting power forward is assisted on 65% of their buckets. So, were you really expecting an isolation scorer at that position anyway? If you were expecting Boozer to be a guy who could get his own bucket, you obviously were not paying that much attention. Boozer has fluctuated between being assisted on 63% and 74% of his scores over the past six seasons, and when that number dropped, his TS% took a nose dive too (sorry for the brief look into who he was). He is a solid pick and roll guy and excellent midrange shooter (sixth best among starting forwards, both small and power, pretty damn good).
This is who Carlos Boozer is.I make no judgements on whether or not we can win a championship with him or anything of the sort. I just wanted to get all of this information out in the open, so we can start discussing Boozer for who he is, not who we wish he could be.

Piles and Piles of Shame
So have you ever wondered why we as a group tend to feel shameful about the games we've never completed? And how other consumers of other media seem to not harbor any such feelings of guilt towards their media of choice? I feel its an almost unique phenomenon to our demographic. Sure, people usually feel that they should get around to reading that book, or finally watching that movie, but they generally don't feel bad about it.
Google "Pile of Shame" or "Backlog of Shame", and you'll find almost every hit is about unfinished video games. So why is that?
I can only tell you my theory based on my personal experiences.
When I was a kid, getting a video game was a big thing. I actually only owned 3 SNES games, 4 Gameboy games, and 6 N64 games. The majority of the games I played were either rented or borrowed. It wasn't that we were poor, it just wasn't a habit that my parents wanted to encourage. I had to do everything in my power to convince my parents to get me a game. Getting the most out of every game I got my hands on was an iron-clad rule.
You have probably had that friend whose parents used to buy him every single game he wanted. I had a friend like that, and I was lucky that he was cool enough to lend me his games whenever I asked. But I was also infuriated every time I took a game from him and saw that he literally did nothing in the game. I remember the worst offense was when I borrowed Super Mario 64 from him. His save file only had 10 stars collected, and he had the game since launch. Almost out of spite, I gave the cart back to him with a 120-star save file.
I think a lot of us grew up the same way, and have this inner critic that makes your eyes avert whenever you lay your eyes on your unfinished games. I hate thinking that I'm now that kid that had it all and didn't value anything.
And yet here I am. 175 games on Steam, way less than half completed. 14 out of 38 PS3 games finished. Writing anymore about this just makes ask myself why I'm writing about it, and not doing something about that stack. I know that if the younger me saw me today, he would be pretty ashamed.
So what do you guys think? Is there any reason why video games in particular make you sign up for a website to track your backlog? Are we just way too obsessive about our medium? Is it even healthy?

ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- A flight home from Florida ended in tragedy for a Minnesota family, after their plane was diverted to Rochester for a medical situation.
A Sun Country flight was on its way to Minneapolis from Fort Myers, Fla. Monday, but was diverted to the Rochester International Airport Monday night and landed here at about 8:15 p.m.
The Olmsted County Sheriff's Office said paramedics were at the runway ready to help when it landed.
Tuesday, officials said a 77-year-old Shakopee man on the flight was sitting next to his wife when he suffered a medical emergency, likely a heart attack.
People on board the plane tried to give the man CPR while the aircraft was still flying without success.
After the plane landed at RST, paramedics tried to revive the man but, it was too late; officials say the man had already passed away.
Flight 384 finally left Rochester at 10:28 p.m. Monday, and arrived at MSP International at 10:54 p.m.

Arthur Bannister has been unexpectedly accepted into Shiverton Hall - an incredibly spooky school, full of surprises. It is just as well Shiverton Hall made its offer, because Arthur had a horrible time at his previous school, and was desperate to leave. Timely indeed.... But Arthur has no time to worry about the strange coincidence. He is too busy trying to make head or tail of Shiverton Hall, dogged as it is by tales of curses and bad fortune.
There are a few friendly faces: George, Penny and Jake. But not all the faces are friendly - for example, the bullying Forge triplets and headmistress Professor Long-Pitt, whose acid tongue makes Arthur's life a misery. Luckily Arthur has his new friends to cheer him up. Although there are some friends that you don't want to have at all, as Arthur is soon to find out.

Coming into the season, the Astros were talking about a much improved farm system. Bolstered by the trades of Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt, the Astros had added a pair of speedy infielders in Jimmy Paredes and Jonathan Villar, and had signed lanky outfielder Ariel Ovando to a club-record signing bonus. Now, after trading Hunter Pence, Michael Bourn, and Jeff Keppinger, the Astros have added even more depth and impact prospect talent and figure to have gone from a bottom five farm system to a team comfortably in the top 20.
Read on to hear my take on who are the top 10 prospects in the organization.
- Jonathan Singleton, 1B: The highest upside bat in the minors, Singleton should hit for a lot of power and average and could develop into a franchise cornerstone. It's dangerous to rank players still in High-A as a system's top prospect, but he looks like the real deal.
- Jarred Cosart, RHP: With an electric fastball and impressive off-speed stuff, Cosart has all the makings of a top of the rotation starter. However, because of a few mechanical issues, he could be a major injury risk and that's what keeps him from being on top of this list.
- George Springer, CF/OF: Another extremely high upside bat, Springer has the potential to be a true five-tool outfielder. He's extremely athletic, hits for power, but is still a bit raw. Though he's a tremendous prospect, people expecting him to fly through the minors need to be ready for some growing pains as he is not as polished as the average top college prospect.
- Paul Clemens, RHP: Some will say that this ranking is a bit aggressive, but Clemens has a chance to be a very, very good major league pitcher. Pairing a strong sinker with a nice curveball and slider, Clemens has begun to blossom as a pitcher this year in his promotion to AA. If he can keep this up, he could become a #2 starter on a good team, but his floor is as a late-inning reliever.
- Jonathan Villar, SS: A slick fielding shortstop who has begun to hit for some power this year, Villar has the tools to become a solid MLB shortstop. This ranking is mostly based on upside as he still needs to show an ability to consistently hit for average, but if he figures it out, he could be a good asset for years to come at a premium position.
- Mike Foltynewicz, RHP: The top pitching prospect in the Astros' system before the mid-season trades, Foltynewicz has been a bit overshadowed by the influx of talent in recent months. Despite a rough start to the season, Folty has managed a fairly solid second half of the year. Though he appears headed to a repeat of Lexington next year, the future is still bright for Foltynewicz.
- Brett Oberholtzer, LHP: Obertholzer appears to be a better version of another pitcher in the Astros system, Dallas Keuchel. Lacking dominant velocity on his fastball but having two other solid off-speed offerings, Oberholtzer is a solid starting pitching prospect with a fairly high floor. If he has a solid first half in AAA next year, Obie could find himself in a major league rotation by year's end.
- Domingo Santana, OF: While Cosart and Singleton have the hype from the Hunter Pence deal, Santana is another player the Phillies gave up that could really make them regret making this deal. At barely 19 years old, Santana is already hitting for power and profiles as a very good outfielder going forward. Though he is 3-5 years away from the majors, Santana could become an All-Star if things go well.
- Ariel Ovando, OF: At just 17, Ariel Ovando is among the youngest players in the entire minor leagues and is still holding his own. The production is still a bit underwhelming, but Ovando's incredible athletic profile and youth make him a top 10 prospect.
- Delino Deshields Jr., 2B/OF: Much like Ovando, Deshields' ranking is based mostly on a combination of extreme upside and youth. While the merits of sending Deshields to full-season ball in his age-18 season are debatable, he has shown enough improvement over the second half of the year to stay on this list. Where he ends up next year will be interesting as the Astros have been very aggressive over the last few years in promoting prospects.

Select Route:
Rossiter rates this as 10c, but it is definitely not that hard. The pump factor may push the grade to 10, but technically it's 9. This route is 15 feet west of the West Bench of the amphitheatre, on the north-facing wall, a gentle overhanging route with the holds getting smaller as you go up. The crux is the moves above the third bolt. You should not have to use the large crack anywhere past the 1st bolt. This rock is a little flaky... we pulled a 12" plate off the rock in October of 1999.
4 bolts to 2 chains. Some trad gear for the start. Access the bolts for TR via a 4th class chimney about 30 feet to the right of the route.
